Chapter 39 : The Song of the Earth

From the ground erupted purple flames, quickly forming a massive, enclosed barrier!

The Uchiha Flame Formation, a secret barrier technique taught by Madara, far surpasses the Four Violet Flames Formation and is second only to the Four Red Yang Formation. It can even trap the Gedo Statue in its critical state!

"I am the free-spirited Eight-Tails Killer Bee! I won't become a grilled octopus trapped in a jar~~~~ Foolish guy~~!! Idiot guy~~~!!"

The Eight-Tails shook its head, snorting. Using its eight octopus tentacles, it wrapped around its body and, matching the rhythm of its rap, rolled forward fiercely!

**—Eight-Tails Eight Rolls: Bull-Headed Chariot!**

*Boom!*

With a thunderous crash, the chariot stopped rolling. The eight octopus tentacles rubbed against the barrier wall, sparks flying, but the barrier showed no signs of breaking!

Even as the ground was gouged out into a deep pit, the chariot came to a complete stop, the barrier remained intact, and the scorched octopus tentacles lay limp on the ground, steaming.

"It hurts, it really hurts. I apologize for this, for the delicious, chewy octopus balls I enjoyed in the past~~~..."

Tobi looked on coldly, "Have you calmed down a bit?"

In the mental world, the Eight-Tails said, "Killer Bee, we should retreat for now! The enemy's abilities are too tricky!! Even the Tailed Beast Bomb can't hurt him!!"

"Ah... though defeat~ is hard to swallow~, the enemy's methods are like a dream~, a gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late~ Foolish guy~ Idiot guy~!"

*Whoosh!*

The Eight-Tails' mouth gathered an ultra-powerful Tailed Beast Bomb!

*Whoosh!*

The Tailed Beast Bomb passed through Tobi's body and collided with the barrier wall behind him.

Tobi coldly said, "It seems you haven't learned your lesson!"

*Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!*

The explosion's flames were confined within the barrier.

*Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle...!*

The high heat and pressure distorted the barrier, opening a gap at the top, and a pillar of fire shot into the sky...

After the energy was released, the gap closed, and the barrier returned to its square shape, undamaged...

But the Eight-Tails was injured by its own Tailed Beast Bomb, covered in wounds!

Tobi coldly said, "This is what it means to hoist yourself with your own petard!"

The Eight-Tails cursed, "You bastard!"

Tobi's right eye focused.

**—Kamui!**

*Whoosh!* From the Kamui vortex, a Fuma Shuriken spun down, embedding in the Eight-Tails' tentacle!

Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

*Whoosh!*

Following the Fuma Shuriken, wooden spikes rained down, covering the Eight-Tails' flesh!

*Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash!*

As Tobi formed hand seals, the spikes sprouted chaotic barbs!

Blood flowed from the Eight-Tails' massive body, staining the ground!

The Eight-Tails: "Bee...!! Think of something, or we'll die here!!!"

Killer Bee: "That guy's phasing ability is related to the Sharingan. There must be a limit; it can't last forever...!"

The Eight-Tails: "That's true, but we don't know his limit!!"

Killer Bee: "The Eight-Tails Killer Bee doesn't fear challenges!!!"

The Eight-Tails: "It's rare for you to be so optimistic in such a dire situation. Fine, I'll fully cooperate with you. At worst, we'll take him down with us!!"

*Whoosh!* The Eight-Tails gathered unprecedentedly powerful chakra!

"Hmm?" Tobi's eyes narrowed, stopping the vortex from his right eye.

Killer Bee, fully charged, launched an all-out attack.

**—Continuous Tailed Beast Bombs!!**

*Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!*

The Tailed Beast fired like a cannon, causing resonant explosions within the barrier!!

Amidst the indiscriminate firestorm, Tobi murmured, "Injuring the enemy by a thousand, harming oneself by eight hundred, using near-suicidal attacks to challenge my Kamui's limit. Indeed, this is the most foolish yet the wisest strategy..."

"But all explosions are confined within this barrier!

"Even in phasing mode, I can move [non-space-time transfer]!"

In the torrent of explosions, Tobi shifted positions. *Whoosh!* About two minutes later, his body phased out from the barrier's edge, emerging outside.

Gazing at the hellish furnace of the barrier, Tobi's eyes darkened, "This way, you've sealed your own fate..."

*Crack! Crack!*

Suddenly, the barrier wall before him cracked, leaking a terrifying pulse!

"The high heat's tension exceeded the Uchiha Flame Formation's limit?!"

**—Kamui!**

*Whoosh!* The vortex from his right eye absorbed him into the space-time dimension...

*Boom!!*

The Uchiha Flame Formation completely collapsed, the destructive flames engulfing the land...

*Whoosh!*

When Tobi returned from the space-time dimension, the forest for miles around had been leveled!

Everything was gone!

Killer Bee, charred black, lay motionless at the bottom of a deep pit.

"This is the true power of the Eight-Tails. Whether facing Sasuke or Kisame, you never used your full strength."

Tobi stepped forward, his Sharingan coldly observing.

"I'm certain you're not a clone or a substitute, so I'll take you without hesitation..."

He bent down, reaching for Killer Bee.

Suddenly, Killer Bee's eyes under his sunglasses opened, his arm shooting out like lightning!

*Crackle!*

A pencil wrapped in Lightning Release shot through Tobi's mask, exiting the back of his head and disappearing into the sky.

*Whoosh!*

Failing to kill, Killer Bee, enduring the pain, retreated three meters, using the remaining Tailed Beast chakra to form a semi-transparent Tailed Beast Cloak!

"Huff, huff, huff..." He panted heavily, but his eyes under the sunglasses remained defiant!

Tobi slowly retracted his hand, saying in a low voice, "Surrender quietly, and you might suffer less."

Killer Bee smiled, "There's no song with that title in my songbook!"

"That's a pity." Tobi slowly lowered his head, *slash, slash, slash!* Grotesque tree trunks burst through his right shoulder's clothing, growing wildly towards the blood moon in the sky!

**—Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees!**

---

**Kumogakure, the Raikage returns.**

Dodai: "Raikage-sama!! The intruder used a barrier to surround the residence!!"

"Hmph!"

The Raikage snorted, his thick neck twisting, Lightning Release Armor covering him. Staring at the barrier, he extended two fingers, forming a sharp spear covered in lightning!

Dodai's expression was solemn: That's the Third Raikage's One-Finger Nukite! The Fourth prefers hand-to-hand combat, so he only mastered the Two-Finger Nukite, but it's enough to break that barrier!

*Crackle!*

After charging, the Raikage's lightning spear pierced the barrier, and his powerful body crashed through!

In the office, books, desks, chairs, and weights were scattered everywhere.

Naruto rummaged through everything, his brows furrowing: "I can't find it anywhere. Could it be, it's not here?"

*Boom!*

The wall exploded!!

"Akatsuki scum, prepare to die!!!!!!"

Along with the explosion, the Raikage's roar echoed. His eyes bulged with rage, glaring at the figure in the Akatsuki cloak!

"Raikage, we meet again so soon. Perfect, I have something to ask you..." A calm voice spoke.

The Raikage's eyes widened: "Huh!? That voice, you are..."

Naruto slowly turned, asking seriously, "Where did you put the scroll recording the Lightning Release Chakra Mode? I can't find it anywhere???"

"What!?"

Feeling deeply insulted, the Raikage A was utterly enraged!

"Are you kidding me? Prepare to die!!!!!!"
