Chapter:81

(Last Day of Free Trial).

The huge body of the three tails rushed into the seaside forest on the land of the Whirlpool Country. The rocky woods that blocked it were like a mantis' arms, and they instantly turned into debris under the impact of the three tails.

"This distance should be about the right spot, right?"

Izuna, riding on the back of the Ninja Eagle, observed the distance and confirmed that they had moved far enough away from the seaside.

At that moment, a long tail covered in scales swung over from the three tails.

Izuna jumped off the hawk's back, allowing the ninja hawk to return to the psychic world to avoid the incoming attack. In mid-air, he pulled out the Flying Thunder God Kunai and threw it toward the three tails' tail.

*Ping!*

However, when the Flying Thunder God Kunai struck the three-tails' tail, it didn't pierce the skin like it did with the eight-tails. Instead, it bounced off with a metallic clink, falling into the jungle below.

Landing on the top of a tall tree, Izuna muttered, "That shell is tough—just like a turtle."

"Water Release: Desolate Sea Spray!"

Centered around the three-tails, a large amount of seawater began to surge, turning the land into a swamp within moments.

Seeing this, Izuna couldn't help but grin.

"I underestimated the tailed beasts. Just like Hashirama's overpowering presence, even when led to an unfavorable environment, they can use jutsu to turn the terrain to their advantage."

After transforming the land into a swamp, the three-tails moved faster, quickly closing the distance between itself and Izuna.

Izuna threw the Flying Thunder God Kunai, reappearing directly above the three-tails. Its tail, covered in scales, lashed out with terrifying force.

Izuna's Mangekyō Sharingan spun, and silver-white ribs sprouted from his body, forming Susanoo.

*Bang!*

The iron tail collided with Susanoo's shell, and two audible *cracks* appeared, leaving fissures on Susanoo.

Izuna, still in mid-air, threw another Flying Thunder God Kunai and appeared ten meters above the three-tails' turtle shell. A large, blue chakra sphere formed in his hand.

"Big Ball Rasengan!"

When the Rasengan hit the three-tails' back, Izuna felt the impact ripple through the beast's body.

However, the three-tailed turtle shell's defense remained unbroken!

Its exposed left eye glared in rage, and the three-tails' chakra flared even more wildly.

"Water Release: Coral Sea Technique!"

Like Kimimaro's Dance of the Seedling Fern, coral spires erupted from the three-tails' back, stabbing toward Izuna.

Izuna frowned, quickly retreating while forming seals.

"Shadow Clone Technique!"

*Bang! Bang!*

Two shadow clones appeared at his sides, and all three Izunas formed seals simultaneously.

"Wind Release: Fierce Gale!"

"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"

"Lightning Release: Grateful Wave!"

The combination of wind, fire, and lightning jutsu formed a fierce sea of flames interspersed with electric flashes, clashing with the coral spires on the three-tails' back.

A violent explosion erupted, and the intense pain from the attack caused the three-tails to roar in agony, shaking its body wildly and tossing Izuna aside.

Izuna turned mid-air, dodging the attacks, but the three-tails acted swiftly.

"Water Release: Heaven's Water Prison!"

Waves of water surged from the swamp beneath the three-tails, forming a massive water bubble around Izuna, attempting to trap and suffocate him.

Unlike Zabuza's Water Prison Technique, the three-tails' version could suck the air out in an instant and did not require physical contact to maintain. It was a perfect water prison, designed to drown its victims.

"Such a basic move, really?" Izuna sneered, unimpressed by the enhanced water prison.

However, as he began to form seals, Izuna noticed something strange—his movements were slowing down, and his body felt heavy.

Looking down, he found coral rock attached to his right side under his ribs.

"Coral? When did that happen..."

A flash of disdain crossed the three-tails' eye, and it seemed too proud to explain.

The coral was a strategic move; while Izuna had been distracted by the Coral Sea Technique earlier, the three-tails had silently deployed the Coral Palm Technique to trap him.

Izuna's slowed hand seals gave the water prison the time it needed to close completely.

The air disappeared, and the weight of the water made it harder for Izuna, already burdened by the coral, to form any seals.

The three-tails' eye narrowed in satisfaction, certain of its victory.

Bubbles rose from Izuna's mouth as he struggled for air, his pale face showing the effects of suffocation.

It seemed the battle had been decided.

Just as the three-tails was about to return to the sea, Izuna's body inside the water prison began to flicker. Five seconds later, with a sizzling sound, his form shattered into lightning and disappeared.

A Lightning Release Shadow Clone!

*Whoosh!*

Suddenly, a kunai pierced into the thorn on the three-tails' head—this time, it stuck.

The real Izuna appeared in front of the three-tails. Its large, reddish eye, bigger than Izuna himself, stared into his Mangekyō Sharingan.

"Submit to me, Three-Tails!"

To subdue a tailed beast, unless one possesses the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, like Madara, the beast may disrupt its own chakra to break the genjutsu. This applies even to the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Thus, Izuna always weakened the beast first to make its mind more susceptible to capture.

Sure enough, the three-tails, exhausted, offered less resistance than the eight-tails had previously.

The tomoe of the Sharingan began appearing in the beast's eye.

It was working!

A rare look of triumph spread across Izuna's face. Few things could bring him this much satisfaction.

Suddenly, the ground beneath him shook violently, forcing Izuna to leap away from the three-tails.

Simultaneously, two spiraling water spears shot toward him from both sides.

Without hesitation, Izuna formed hand seals, "Fire Release: Hiding in Ash and Smoke!"

Thick ash billowed from Izuna's mouth, forming a protective barrier around him. The water spears collided with the ash, and steam hissed as fire and water met.

In the rising mist, Izuna jumped out, but his shoulder had been slightly grazed by the earlier attack.

Yet more concerning than his injury was the state of the three-tails.
