Roar!
"Eight-Tails Eight Twists!"
Killer Bee wrapped his massive octopus tentacles around his body. Then, the towering Tailed Beast began spinning rapidly in place, forming a gigantic whirlpool of water.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The liquid inside the water sphere was swept up by the immense force of the Eight-Tails' rotation, spiraling toward the edges of the sphere, seemingly intent on breaking it apart.
Bang! Bang!
Having fought fiercely with Kisame for quite some time, the Raikage was starting to feel suffocated. He realized that within this enormous water sphere, akin to a lake, both his speed and strength were being significantly diminished.
As for electrical conduction, the surface of Kisame's body was covered by a gray, mud-like hard shell, rendering the lightning conducted through the water ineffective against him.
This won't do...
This guy's Water Release jutsu is astonishingly powerful...
The Raikage's face showed concern as the water behind him began to spin rapidly, with many Kumogakure shinobi trapped in unconsciousness within.
Splat!
At the far edge of the water sphere, the Eight-Tails' tentacles finally reached outside the sphere.
"Hmm?!"
"This water sphere is so resilient?"
"Can't break it even like this?"
The Eight-Tails looked puzzled, but once its entire body was dragged out, its octopus tentacles quickly plunged back in, pulling out the unconscious Kumogakure shinobi one by one.
Facing Kisame, the Raikage had no choice but to temporarily retreat, planning to leave the water sphere area. His form transformed into a streak of blue lightning, swiftly "shuttling" toward Killer Bee.
"Heh heh heh~"
"Trying to run?"
Kisame, now transformed into a small "shark turtle," spoke with his characteristic teasing tone.
Kisame's hands formed seals again, then he shouted loudly, "Water Release: Great Shark Bullet Technique!"
Roar!
A massive shark-shaped water bullet roared as it charged toward the Raikage and Killer Bee.
The blue shark opened its bloodthirsty maw to an exaggerated extent, seemingly intending to bite off a large portion of the Eight-Tails' body.
"Hmm?!"
"Big brother!"
"This shark bastard's strength is unexpectedly formidable?!"
Seeing his brother in danger, Killer Bee temporarily abandoned his rapping thoughts. He intertwined his eight octopus tentacles and quickly darted in front of the Raikage, intending to shield him from the terrifying shark water bullet.
However, the shark water bullet's speed was clearly superior. Before the octopus tentacles could reach, the shark water bullet had already bitten down fiercely on the Raikage!
Ugh!
The Raikage grunted deeply, then suddenly unleashed a surge of blue lightning from his body, resembling tightly wound steel whips—thick, powerful, and full of texture.
Sizzle!
At this moment, the Raikage appeared like a thunder god descended to earth, enveloped in dazzling lightning. He stood inside the giant shark water bullet's maw, forcibly prying it open with his limbs!
"As expected of the Raikage, truly surprising strength!"
"But..."
From afar, Kisame's face showed a bloodthirsty expression. After becoming the Three-Tails Jinchūriki, the intensity and scope of his Water Release jutsu had directly ascended to another level!
"Hmm?!"
The Raikage's tiger eyes widened as he keenly sensed a change—the swift lightning surrounding his body was rapidly weakening.
"Could this guy's jutsu actually devour Chakra?!"
The Raikage's heart sank. Proud as he was, aside from being bested by Sōmi and Minato Namikaze, he considered himself one of the strongest across the entire ninja world.
This feeling had intensified since the disappearance of Sōmi and Minato Namikaze, but today, this suddenly emerging Three-Tails Jinchūriki was able to suppress him...
How could the Raikage accept this unbearable reality?!
Moreover, if he didn't block this shark bullet, it would also attack Killer Bee behind him.
"Ah!!"
In a state of rage, the Raikage mobilized all the Chakra within his body.
Gurgle, gurgle...
Under the violent sweep of the lightning, the water around the Raikage seemed to boil, producing a dense stream of small bubbles.
"Lightning Oppression Horizontal Thousand-Year Dance!"
Even within the water sphere, the Raikage transformed into a blue streak.
Suddenly.
The center of the pale blue giant shark's mouth lit up, and a lightning pattern seeped out from within, quickly spreading to the tail of the giant shark.
An astonishing event occurred—the body of the tens-of-meters-long giant shark split cleanly in half, as if it had been neatly cleaved by a giant axe.
The split shark then exploded, transforming into torrents of water that scattered in all directions.
"Wow..."
Having delivered a full-force strike, the Raikage could no longer maintain his breath-holding state, and his mouth involuntarily opened.
At this point, the surrounding water, like sharks smelling blood, surged forward, pouring into the Raikage's mouth and nose.
The Raikage struggled to control his body, moving toward the water sphere's edge, knowing that Killer Bee's octopus tentacles were nearby to pull him out.
"Hmm..."
"But..."
But the Raikage, whose consciousness was gradually becoming hazy, was surprised to find that the octopus tentacles that had been surrounding him had all disappeared!
"Why..."
"Are there other enemies..."
The Raikage looked toward Killer Bee's direction, and what he saw made his heart sink to the bottom.
Sasori, previously enveloped by the water sphere, had somehow moved to that side, and his hand was pressing on the Eight-Tails' neck.
Sasori's eyes emitted a ripple-like transparent space vortex. With this ripple at the center, the Eight-Tails' entire head was twisting, shrinking, and being sucked into that otherworldly space.
"What..."
The Raikage, eyes wide with fury, struggled desperately, intending to rescue his sworn brother.
But unfortunately, Kisame wouldn't easily let go of this powerful opponent.
Kisame, now cloaked in a layer of red Chakra armor, formed seals with his hands and pressed forward.
"Water Release: Thousand Feeding Sharks!"
Gurgle...
With the water swirling, countless lifelike small blue sharks suddenly appeared in front of Kisame.
Though smaller in size, the sheer number of sharks was terrifying, filling the water around Kisame to the brim.
The sharks, with their sharp triangular heads and teeth, gleaming with a chilling light, rushed toward the Raikage in unison!━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
