The sudden, tremendous explosion on the battlefield drew everyone's attention.
Rasa turned his head, "What?"
He initially thought that the [Bijudama] would explode among the Konoha ninja forces or kill Uchiha Shintaro.
Unexpectedly, Rasa only saw the explosion hitting Shukaku, while Shintaro still stood high in the air.
"He actually has the ability to fly... That's not important. What's important is how he could counter the [Bijudama] so easily."
"Even I, with my magnet element, wouldn't dare to resist a [Bijudama]."
Rasa thought for a moment, recalling Shintaro's act of killing the Hachibi.
"At first, I thought it was exaggerated, but I didn't expect it to be true. He has the power to fight a Bijuu head-on at such a young age..."
"The value of this is truly... enormous."
Rasa realized his situation was dire; he was injured now, and it was already challenging to face Minato before him.
Adding Shintaro's words, there was no doubt that he would be defeated.
Seeing Rasa's reaction, Minato smiled and said, "Shintaro once killed the Hachibi. He could be called a Bijuu Slayer."
"Ichibi of Sunagakure Village will have trouble against Shintaro."
Rasa smiled reluctantly and still spoke harshly, "A Bijuu is not easy to deal with."
A sharp roar once again interrupted the conversation between Rasa and Minato.
"Ah! It hurts so much!!!"
It turned out to be Shukaku's shrill voice screaming in pain.
The dust and smoke from the [Bijudama] explosion spread, revealing Shukaku lying on the ground in a panic.
Half of his thick, long tail was missing, and a large hole suddenly appeared in his body.
Shukaku's lost body parts turned into yellow sand on the ground due to the [Bijudama] explosion.
However, Shukaku could still scream loudly, indicating that although injured, it was not life-threatening.
Bijuu are chakra creatures, so even if severely injured, they are just weakened and look pitiful.
As long as the Bijuu's chakra is not completely lost, it will not die. Shintaro knew this very well. The first time he fought against the Hachibi, he spent a long time in fierce battle before defeating the Hachibi.
However, things were different now. Shintaro now had a technique as powerful as the [Bijudama].
A large amount of chakra and Cursed Energy gathered in his palm, and the blue ball gradually turned red, and then gradually darkened to pitch black.
In terms of size, [Purple] was still smaller than the [Bijudama], but its power had surpassed the [Bijudama], at least more than Shukaku's [Bijudama].
"[Bijudama]?!"
Shukaku saw the dark ball in Shintaro's palm and felt the terrifying power contained within it.
In Shukaku's understanding, the combination of black color, a ball, and terrifying power could only be called [Bijudama].
But Shukaku also realized that this ball seemed somewhat different from a [Bijudama].
The black light on the surface of the pitch-black ball kept flashing, a sign of high-speed rotation inside the ball.
[Purple] and [Bijudama] had similar appearances, but essentially it was a highly compressed chakra ball.
However, [Purple] not only had the blessing of strong Cursed Energy but also the blessing of high-speed rotation power.
As Shukaku once again showed an expression of horror, [Purple] shot out in an instant.
*BOOM*
A terrifying explosion occurred instantly, and fire erupted, engulfing Shukaku once again.
"Oh no!"
Shukaku's scream swept across the battlefield.
No ninja from Sunagakure or Konoha dared to be near Shintaro and Shukaku, yet the scream still reached the ears of the ninjas on the battlefield.
Bijuu are terrifying representations of weapons in most ninjas' minds.
Only Bijuu always scared ninjas, and ninjas had never heard Bijuu scream in fear.
Shukaku used his sand control ability to protect himself in the critical moment of life and death.
There was a legend circulating in the Land of Wind. Shukaku lived in the depths of the desert. He was a monster raccoon cat buried and piled up by wind and sand. His body was a raccoon cat, liked to play tricks, and loved to bury everything in front of him with wind and sand.
It is hard to say whether this legend is true or false, but Shukaku's ability to control wind and sand is true. Shukaku was seen creating a large amount of yellow sand on the ground under his feet. The yellow sand surged up and immediately covered his body, forming a large ball-shaped shield.
The large ball of yellow sand covered Shukaku's entire huge body, and the yellow sand mixed with the hard metal ores buried underground, protecting his body like an indestructible absolute defense.
At the same time the yellow sand shield formed, a tremendous explosion had already hit it.
In an instant, a large amount of yellow sand was erased by the explosion of [Purple], and the so-called absolute defense collapsed immediately.
The explosion generated by a large amount of chakra and Cursed Energy of [Purple] exploded with a dazzling light.
The intense white light emerging from the pitch-black color illuminated the entire battlefield.
Some relatively close ninjas couldn't help but close their eyes.
When the light disappeared, the extremely embarrassed Shukaku was revealed.
The yellow sand shield around Shukaku had completely collapsed, and half of his face had turned into yellow sand, along with one claw and half of his body.
"He isn't dead yet. Bijuu are very tenacious."
Shintaro could only sigh.
Although Shukaku's power was not as good as the Hachibi, his defensive power seemed superior.
Moreover, Shukaku had many methods, so he was not easier to deal with compared to the Hachibi.
At this moment, Shukaku, seeing Shintaro's terrifying power, had no fighting spirit left and no longer had the strength to utter his sharp howl.
"Such terrifying power..."
"Since I was born until now... I've never suffered such serious injuries..."
"This bastard really is trying to kill me."
"I can't beat you. Now it seems I have no choice but to run away..."
The eye on Shukaku's broken half-face rotated, and then he suddenly opened his mouth.
A strong wind swept sand bombs and yellow sand towards Shintaro in the sky. While launching a violent attack, the strong wind also formed a large yellow sand smoke screen in the sky in an attempt to disrupt his view.
Then Shukaku immediately turned and ran, stretching his short legs and using his only remaining claw to grab the ground for acceleration. His posture was funny, but his speed was very fast, and the ground shook as he ran.
However, Shintaro surrounded by yellow sand only found it amusing.
"You silly tanuki for trying to blind the Six Eyes' vision."
