Tailed Beasts? Provide Me with Chakra!

After being forced to swallow their own Bijuu Bombs, both Shukaku and the Six-Tails form of the Nine-Tails stared at each other in shock and fear.

"Roar?" Shukaku growled at the Nine-Tails in a language Furin couldn't understand.

"Roar!" The Nine-Tails, feeling the Bijuu Bomb it had swallowed, responded with a hoarse cry, seemingly setting aside its millennia-long grudge against Shukaku for the moment.

Though Furin couldn't understand the tailed beasts' unique language, he could easily read their expressions and body language.

Taking a guess, Furin asked, "Are you two wondering if the Bijuu Bombs you swallowed will explode?"

Both the Nine-Tails and Shukaku looked down at their stomachs, their expressions growing even more nervous. Then, as if in unison, they let out a thunderous roar that reverberated across the land, causing Furin's ears to ache.

Furin scratched his ears and responded calmly, "If the Bijuu Bombs explode in your stomachs, then they explode. Why are you roaring at me...?"

The two tailed beasts were left dumbfounded. In their thousands of years of existence, they had experienced countless battles and injuries, but never had they faced a situation like this—where they had to swallow their own Bijuu Bombs!

As the creators of these devastating chakra orbs, the tailed beasts knew all too well the destructive power of a Bijuu Bomb. If it detonated inside their bodies, they wouldn't die, but they would certainly be left in a world of pain.

Seeing the two beasts waiting helplessly for the impending explosion inside them, Furin acted quickly, controlling his massive Wood Human.

"Wood Release: Nativity of a Sea of Trees!"

Furin's Wood Human performed the hand seals, and with the chakra he had absorbed from the tailed beasts, he began summoning trees from the ground. The forest rapidly expanded, enveloping both Shukaku and the Nine-Tails. Neither of them resisted, perhaps too preoccupied with the looming threat inside their bodies to fight back.

The Nativity of a Sea of Trees continued to grow, absorbing chakra from both tailed beasts like a parasitic vine. Shukaku and the Nine-Tails struggled, wanting to retaliate, but the fear of the Bijuu Bombs inside their bellies forced them to focus on containing the impending explosions instead.

The forest thickened, with trees growing even larger and stronger as they absorbed more chakra. The once barren desert that Shukaku had created was now transformed back into a lush, sprawling forest.

At the same time, Furin merged the hands of his Wood Human into the expanding forest, pinning the two tailed beasts to the ground.

"That should do it…" Furin, seated atop the Wood Human's head, licked his lips in anticipation. He knew that the Bijuu Bombs the two tailed beasts had swallowed, after being condensed for so long, would be far more destructive than the ones they usually fired after just a few seconds of preparation.

If he didn't take precautions, the resulting explosion would be so massive that even the busiest shinobi in the Hidden Leaf Village would come running to investigate.

Boom! Boom!

Two deafening explosions echoed from beneath the sea of trees. The colossal trees, each dozens of meters thick, were blasted apart by the force of the Bijuu Bombs exploding inside the tailed beasts. Even though the trees and chakra barriers provided multiple layers of protection, the sheer power of the explosions was still enough to shake the entire landscape.

After several long seconds, the sound of the explosions finally subsided, and the dust and smoke began to clear. Furin controlled the Wood Human, raising its massive hands, which were now charred and broken, with much of the wood having been blown apart.

"As expected, I'm still not on the same level as the First Hokage's Wood Human Technique," Furin mused, using Wood Release to repair the damaged arms of his Wood Human.

When Hashirama Senju had used this technique, he could catch and throw Bijuu Bombs as if they were basketballs, but Furin was still far from that level. He hadn't even made direct contact with the Bijuu Bombs, and yet his Wood Human's arms had been blown apart.

"If I want to reach that level, mastering the Sage Mode from the Shikkotsu Forest is crucial," Furin thought to himself. His Wood Human didn't have the accompanying Wood Dragon or the golden glow that Hashirama's did. He concluded that mastering the Sage Mode would bring him closer to the legendary Hokage's power.

"The giant scroll is a must," Furin muttered, thinking about Tsunade and her impressive figure. Recalling her youthful appearance, he added, "And while I'm at it, I'll have to win her over too."

As the dust from the explosions cleared, Furin put his thoughts of Tsunade aside and looked down at the two tailed beasts who had just swallowed their own Bijuu Bombs and survived the resulting explosions.

"Are they dead...?" Furin asked aloud, though he knew tailed beasts, being made entirely of chakra, couldn't truly die.

He cautiously used the Wood Human to pull back the scorched remains of the forest, revealing the two tailed beasts.

Shukaku, once a towering figure as large as a mountain, had shrunk to about half his original size, his chakra reserves severely depleted. The Six-Tails form of the Nine-Tails was in even worse shape. The explosion had caused its bones to crack and splinter, and two of its tails had reverted, leaving it with only four.

"Grr...!" Despite its weakened state, the Four-Tails form of the Nine-Tails still managed to crawl to its feet and let out a feeble growl, attempting to challenge Shukaku.

Shukaku, clutching its belly, wasn't about to back down either and roared back, "Roar!"

It seemed like the two tailed beasts were gearing up for another fight.

"Stop it, you little fox and little tanuki," Furin called out, jumping down from the head of the Wood Human. He quickly formed hand seals once more.

"Wood Release: Nativity of a Sea of Trees!"

As the Wood Human collapsed, transforming into countless trees, Furin's new technique spread out and bound the two tailed beasts once more.

"Help me store some chakra, will you?" Furin said casually. His Yin Seal on his forehead glowed as it began to absorb chakra from the tailed beasts.
