Chapter 194 - Chapter 194 Kurama: Yes! That's Exactly How It Feels!

After donning the Tailed Beast Cloak, B's speed and strength increased significantly. This boost was even more terrifying than Raikage's Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

He drew the seven swords on his body-

holding sword hilts in his mouth, neck, knee bends, waist, and even under his armpits.

"Acrobat."

This was a special sword technique mastered by B, relying on flexible skills and unpredictable blade paths.

Simultaneously, he coated the blades with Lightning Attribute Chakra, also executing the [Supervibrato Lightning Release Swords].

If struck by any of these seven swords, the enemy would be paralyzed, forced to endure the ensuing storm-like onslaught.

He spun towards Naruto like a spiked top-

with blades appearing from various tricky angles, even shifting positions along with B's movements.

"Flashy sword technique, but... you'd probably have some common language with that kid."

Naruto first subconsciously complained, then couldn't help but recall the green-haired kid who dared challenge Mihawk.

A faint smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

But the next moment, the expression on his face returned to calm-

as if some force was forcibly suppressing this emotion.

Because he was in combat, Naruto temporarily ignored this anomaly.

Seeing B armed with blades all over, Naruto simply created blade edges on his own arms.

After a series of clanging sounds, Naruto remained completely unscathed, while most of B's seven swords were damaged.

Several were completely broken, the rest mostly had chips and notches.

"You idiot, you bastard! Are you really human? Must get serious!"

These seven swords, while not as famous as Kirigakure's Seven Ninja Swords, were still forged by Kirigakure using Chakra Metal, while their craftsmanship referencing the samurai of the Land of Iron.

But not only was Naruto's body as hard as a sword, but his skill was also superior.

Even though B was on the offensive throughout, Naruto's every block and counter was precise, always hitting the point where his strength was weakest.

The seven swords embedded into the ground, then B simply invoked more Tailed Beast Chakra.

Instantly, two more tails extended-

the black-red Tailed Beast Chakra completely obscuring his face.

At this moment, Jiraiya and the others belatedly arrived on the battlefield.

Seeing the four-legged Tailed Beast's Jinchuriki with a large tail swinging behind it, Jiraiya instinctively thought Naruto had gone into a rampage.

But then he saw the person standing in front of the other person.

'Isn't that Naruto?'

'So who is that guy?'

However, the Fourth Raikage soon gave him the answer.

"Bi! Use that move!"

After all, Raikage was a tough guy who had tempered his body for long. Even though he's already late in his forties, his physical strength had not declined much.

After lying incapacitated in the ground for a while, Raikage actually managed to use Lightning Release to stimulate his cells, regaining control of his body.

Hearing his brother's voice, B immediately reacted, assuming a stance and charging.

The two brothers, wrapped in Chakra, attacked simultaneously from Naruto's front and back.

"Double Lariat!"

Their speed was so fast that even though Jiraiya, Sasuke, and Karin immediately reacted and launched attacks to intercept, they couldn't stop them in time.

The brothers' elbows, like a guillotine, simultaneously clamped onto Naruto's neck.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard they tried, their arms remained motionless, utterly unlike their usual decapitating move.

"Wha-"

Before Raikage A could finish, his head was pressed by a large hand and smashed into the ground.

His nearly two-meter tall, burly frame was forcibly 'planted' upside down into the earth. Getting up this time would be difficult.

It wasn't that B wasn't unwilling to help, but he was also grabbed by Naruto.

What horrified B even more was that Naruto actually opened his mouth towards him.

Sizzle-

That was the auditory hallucination of Chakra being torn away.

'This guy... was eating Gyuki's Chakra!?'

B thought of the two famous Missing-Nins in Kumogakure's history, the Gold and Silver Brothers.

It was said these brothers also ate Nine-Tails' chakra... what goes around comes around, and now the payback had landed on him?

But there wasn't much time for B to think about it, as Gyuki was already shouting in his mind.

"B, you idiot! Create distance quickly!"

Hearing this, B's large tail swung down, using the recoil to barely break free from Naruto's grasp.

Naruto stood still, carefully savoring the recent taste.

"Not bad. Although it looks a bit strange, your taste is really quite good."

If a beautiful woman had said this, B might have been somewhat pleased.

But currently, these words came from the mouth of an expressionless monster, sounding more like a predator's consolation to its prey.

B knew deeply that the Naruto before him might be the strongest enemy he had ever faced, or would ever face.

He simply mobilized Gyuki's Chakra at maximum output, fully entering the Tailed Beast Mode.

The small red figure disappeared, replaced by a giant, eight-legged, horned octopus.

"Octopus—"

Looking at the mountain-sized Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, a drop of saliva uncontrollably dripped from Naruto's mouth.

'Grilled octopus legs, skewered octopus tentacles, scallion-blasted octopus...'

Countless recipes flooded Naruto's mind, the desire to eat seemingly impacting some kind of suppression.

Across from him, Gyuki, now fused with B, instinctively felt that gaze full of appetite, and the entire Tailed Beast's body uncontrollably shrank back.

Inside Naruto, watching Gyuki show the same expression he himself had when he first saw Naruto, Kurama let out a heartless laugh.

"Hahahaha, that's exactly right! That's exactly how it feels!"

'I knew it! Back then, it wasn't because I was timid, but because this guy Naruto's thought process was too bizarre.'

"Bastard!"

A tentacle wrapped around Naruto's body, trying to smash him aside.

But Naruto instead hugged the giant tentacle and pulled hard, actually tearing it directly off the Eight-Tails' body.

"Acceptable. This for midnight snack."

Looking at the tentacle, which is several times larger than himself, Naruto nodded in satisfaction.

Then, he actively launched an attack towards the opponent.

But just as Naruto's figure disappeared and reappeared in mid-air, B revealed a triumphant smile.

"Now!"

Earlier, he held back fearing his brother was still down nearby. But now, Naruto had actually jumped up voluntarily, getting right into his line of fire.

Gyuki opened its large mouth, a Tailed Beast Bomb rapidly forming.

Seeing this, Naruto subconsciously wanted to create a Conqueror's Bomb to counter it.

But he couldn't use his Conqueror's Haki at all.

Because it was to be fired at point-blank range, this genuine Tailed Beast Bomb was launched without much accumulation.

B watched as the Tailed Beast Bomb directly hit Naruto's body, then pushed him away into the distance.

"Direct hit!"

'Next should come a grand explosion!'

But as he watched Naruto fly farther and farther away, the expected Tailed Beast Bomb explosion never came.
