Chapter 17 Tailed Beast Transformation
Chapter 17 Tailed Beast Transformation
"Water Release: Water Whip!"
"Water Release: Water Prison Technique!"
On the other side, Kakashi was already entangled by several Kirigakure Chunin led by Aoki.
The Mist Ninja worked together seamlessly, using long-range Water Release techniques to harass and restrict Kakashi's movement, attempting to trap him in a water prison.
Kakashi struggled to hold on, the lightning on his White Fang short sword grew weaker and weaker, and the wounds on his body continued to increase.
He was extremely anxious and wanted to break through the encirclement to help Lin, but he was powerless to do so.
As Pakkun said earlier, even at his peak, he couldn't possibly be a match for so many Mist Ninjas.
Besides, he was simply too tired at that moment...
"Lin!"
Kakashi saw Rin being approached by Makoto, his eyes wide with rage. He activated his Lightning Release chakra, increasing his speed as he tried to rush over.
"Your opponent is us!"
Aoki gave a cold shout and, together with another Mist Ninja, blocked Kakashi's path.
Kakashi was forced to retreat, watching helplessly as Makoto's figure drew closer and closer to Rin.
"Don't get distracted, little white hair, I'm not your opponent."
Without turning his head, Makoto waved to Kakashi as if to say hello, but his gaze remained fixed on Rin: "Hey girl, look, your little lover is too busy to take care of himself. Why don't we have a good chat?"
"Tell me how you're feeling right now. Do you feel like there's a fire burning inside you, like you want to destroy something?"
"Shut up!"
Lin felt even more dizzy.
Goji Makoto's voice buzzed in her ear like a fly, stirring up her already chaotic thoughts.
Furthermore, with Kakashi in danger in the distance, the chakra within her body responded to her anger, surging even more fiercely against the seal.
"Yes, that's it. Anger, fear, resentment... these are all good fuel."
With a slight smile, Makoto Kuraki approached slowly: "Let that power come out. It can help you get rid of your pain, help you protect the people you want to protect... like, taking down those annoying guys over there?"
He glanced meaningfully at the Mist Ninja who were besieging Kakashi.
"No... I can't..."
Lin clutched her head in anguish, her body trembling violently as she resisted.
Reason told her she could not succumb to this power; it was a monster that would bring destruction.
But emotionally, seeing Kakashi struggling and on the verge of defeat, an impulse to destroy everything did indeed grow in her heart.
"Why are you resisting? Look how much pain you're in right now."
Makoto Karatachi had already walked a few steps away from her, stopped, and spread his hands, looking harmless: "Let me help you. I can ease your pain, and I can even send you back to Konoha, as long as you cooperate a little."
Return to Konoha?!
This word struck Lin like a thunderbolt.
No! We absolutely cannot go back to Konoha!
"Aaaaaah!"
Extreme resistance and fear became the final straw that broke the camel's back.
Lin could no longer control herself. She tilted her head back and let out a sharp shriek. Her deep red chakra suddenly burst forth, forming a slightly blurry chakra cloak. A slightly illusory tail made of chakra swayed behind her!
The Three-Tails' chakra was completely detonated by its emotions!
"roar!"
A faint roar escaped from Lin's throat as her consciousness was shattered by the violent killing intent and the instincts of the tailed beast.
At this moment, all she could see were the blurry outlines of the enemy and a desire for destruction.
"That's right, that's more like it."
Gouju Cheng's smile faded, and his eyes sharpened.
"Lin, calm down!"
Kakashi noticed this and shouted, but he was held back by the attacks of Aoki and the others.
Rin, completely affected by the tailed beast's chakra, could no longer hear Kakashi's voice.
She let out a low growl, unleashing a torrent of chakra, and charged towards Makoto Karatachi, who was closest to her, like a cannonball!
"So fast!"
Gouju sighed inwardly, but his body slid to the side in a way that seemed dangerous but was actually incredibly precise, avoiding Lin's chaotic yet terrifyingly powerful collision.
"Whoosh!"
Lin missed her first attack, but instinctively swung her hand back, and sharp claws extended from her chakra cloak, sweeping towards Makoto's neck.
As if he had anticipated this, Gouju Cheng leaned back and narrowly avoided the danger again, miraculously avoiding the fall in a bridge-like posture.
If Nohara Rin still possessed reason at this moment, she would have noticed that the eyes of the evasive Makoto Karatachi had, unknowingly, turned blood red.
At the same time, three magatama appeared around the pupils.
[God's Hand - Sharingan]
Three-Tomoe Sharingan - Shisui Version!
The Sharingan truly lives up to its reputation as a bug-level bloodline limit in the ninja world, automatically granting Jonin-level combat power upon activating three tomoe.
After awakening his Sharingan, Makoto Karatachi's perception, insight, and ability to manipulate his body reached a whole new level.
Rin's seemingly violent and chaotic attack trajectory became clearly discernible under the dynamic vision capture of the Sharingan!
"The so-called Tailed Beasts are actually just aggregates of chakra. Using the Tailed Beast's chakra to strengthen the body is the same principle as when I activated the Yin Seal; it's all about releasing a massive amount of chakra..."
"After transforming into a tailed beast, both strength and speed were greatly enhanced, but consciousness was affected by the evil emotions within the chakra, causing rationality to become chaotic, and pure instincts to take over..."
"Forget it, even if I can perfectly suppress the Tailed Beast, I probably can't completely open my heart to it like Naruto and become a perfect Jinchūriki. There's still a possibility that I could be influenced by the Tailed Beast and betray it."
"I'll just have to slowly build up my chakra."
"roar!"
Rin grew increasingly agitated as she failed to gain the upper hand. The chakra tail behind her swayed more violently, and the crimson chakra cloak became more solid. The faint phantom of a second chakra tail was already appearing behind her.
Her gaze was fixed on Makoto Karatachi, her once clear eyes now filled with violence and pure killing intent. At the same time, she slammed her limbs to the ground, and an enormous amount of chakra began to gather in front of her mouth. The dark red chakra light intertwined and collided fiercely, exuding a destructive aura!
"It seems like things have gone a bit too far..."
Gouju Cheng squinted.
The next moment, Nohara Rin spat out several chakra, and the violent chakra aggregate actually shot out several chakra beams, which shot towards the direction where Karatachi Makoto was.
【God's Hand - Swift Escape】
Makoto Karatachi's three-tomoe Sharingan spun wildly, discerning the trajectory of each beam of light, while simultaneously unleashing the power of Swift Release.
In an instant, his speed increased to an unbelievable level, and he seemed to transform into an elusive streak of light.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The chakra beam arrived with overwhelming force, tearing apart the ground and distorting the air wherever it passed.
Several shots landed on the shore behind them, splashing up towering waves like a torrential downpour.
