Chapter 746 - 5: Seven-Tails and the Assault

In the cavern shrouded by candlelight, an enormous stone altar was built at the center.

A cerulean hemispherical barrier enveloped the edge of the altar, completely isolating the 'inside' from the 'outside' space.

On the altar, numerous tadpole-like black runes were engraved, extending to the various edges of the altar, giving a sense of mystery and unpredictability.

Soon after, a rumbling sound came from the altar, as a giant beetle, entirely deep blue in color, with six wings and a tail, appeared.

Judging by the body's streamlined shape and the blue metallic sheen reflecting off its shell, its sturdiness was extraordinary.

This creature, with such a size, seemed not yet fully unleashed, but was already as large as a small mountain.

The writhing mouthpiece full of sharp teeth on its face was particularly striking, exuding a desire for berserk aggression and bloodlust.

Utilizing its wings to stir up a violent wind, it harnessed this force to freely glide in mid-air, then descended, charging at the ninja below with the large hardened horn on its head.

The sealing altar, built with special materials, fractured in the middle, unable to withstand the brutal impact of the hardened horn of the giant beast.

Pieces of stone flew in all directions, impacting the inner wall of the barrier, then falling to the ground.

Dust rose as the ferocious and massive beast roared loudly in the smoke and dust, appearing indistinctly.

The roar was earth-shattering.

"Using a seal of this magnitude, it's still impossible to restrain the Tailed Beast after all..."

The red-haired woman, proficient in sealing techniques, looked somewhat troubled at the rampaging giant beast.

Though the sealing runes remained undamaged, the altar's entire terrain was shattered in an instant. Such an impact, if it were caused by a ninja, would require a vast destructive ninja technique to create such a disruption.

Yet the Tailed Beast needed only to use its enormous body to ram forcefully, causing such destructive power.

From this perspective, comparing ordinary ninjas to Tailed Beasts, they are fundamentally in different leagues.

As the 'ultimate weapons' of the Five Great Ninja Villages, the power of the Tailed Beasts is by no means weak.

Except for ninjas at the level of the Five Kage, no ninja can ignore the destructive power of the Tailed Beasts.

Even the Five Kage can only rely on sealing techniques to deal with Tailed Beasts. Currently, only the Third Raikage, who perished on the battlefield, could challenge a Tailed Beast with physical brute strength and bring it down.

At the moment of leaping backward, golden chains extended from behind, writhing and flying like long serpents, entangling the body of the giant beetle.

The giant beetle seemed to sense this and slightly lifted its head, its wings flapping once more, whipping up a violent storm, lifting its body towards the ceiling of the cavern.

Thud!

The antenna first collided with the barrier's wall, causing the giant beetle's body to tremor, thoughts of buzzing reverberations likely in its head as it fell.

Yet a subtle crack also appeared on the inner wall of the barrier.

"Obito!"

The red-haired woman saw this scene, loudly calling the distant young man, conveying the most direct command with the briefest words.

"Got it! Leave it to me, Captain Fumiko!"

Obito had been anxiously waiting for this moment, his right eye's Three-Tomoe Sharingan slightly contracting. Then, a strange power surged into his eyes, causing the Three-Tomoe Sharingan to undergo a monumental transformation.

It transformed into a pattern that was more intricate and mysterious, the Mangekyo Sharingan.

Obito's face was brimming with a confident smile, his spiky hair swaying in the storm, standing firmly in the center of the storm, utterly ignoring the oppressive pressure from the giant beetle.

The Sharingan is the ultimate eye for observation and illusion.

Seeing through every move of the enemy, finding the right opportunity to issue hypnotic suggestions, is the expertise of the Sharingan.

The Mangekyou Sharingan, superior to the ordinary Sharingan, possesses naturally greater power in casting illusions.

In the instant the giant beetle fell after its unsuccessful collision with the barrier, Obito perfectly aligned his Mangekyo Sharingan with the beast's gaze.

This is precisely the troublesome trait of the Sharingan, which must rely on eyesight to release illusions.

Similarly, it requires the opponent to have normal vision.

Therefore, for those who can fight with their eyes closed, or those who are blind types of ninjas, the Sharingan's illusions are essentially useless.

As soon as the gaze connected, the body of the giant beetle trembled much more violently.

The massive writhing mouthpiece seemed to want to spew something, yet, suppressed by the Sharingan's pupil technique, fell to the ground kicking up dust, its body twitching as if struggling to resist the suppressive force covering its entire being through its eyes.

For Tailed Beasts, there are three things they hate the most.

One is sealing techniques.

Another is the Sharingan.

The last is the Wood Style Ninjutsu of the First Hokage.

These three powers, like the arch-enemies of the Tailed Beasts, allow many ninjas far weaker than Tailed Beasts to confront them head-on without yielding. ๐“ฏ๐“ป๐“ฎ๐™š๐™ฌ๐“ฎ๐™—๐’๐™ค๐’—๐™š๐™ก.๐’„๐’๐“ถ

At present, there is no Power of Wood Style here, but there are both sealing techniques and the Sharingan.

Moreover, the power of both the sealing technique and the Sharingan here exceeds conventional sealing techniques and Sharingan.

The sealing technique specifically for locking down Tailed Beasts, the Uzumaki Clan's Vajra Seal.
