Konoha, Just Like Kizaru

"It's Hanyu Simu-sama!"

"What is this terrible monster?"

"It's a tailed beast! Kumogakure Two-Tails!"

"But why is Simu-sama standing on its head?"

The smile seemed to gradually transfer from Kumo Shinobi's face to Konoha Shinobi's. 

"You seem to have forgotten about me," Simu said, standing confidently atop the Two-Tails' head.

His Observation Haki locked onto dozens of key threats among the Kumo Shinobi. A laser formed at his fingertips, glowing with deadly precision.

With a rapid burst of air-piercing sounds, countless lasers rained down on the battlefield.

The targeted Kumo Shinobi felt a dreadful sense of impending doom. 

In the next second, the flames from the explosion instantly engulfed them.

"Simu-sama is mighty!"

Simu's move greatly boosted Konoha's morale.

Meanwhile, the Two-Tails, recognizing Simu's power and leadership, fought with even greater intensity, overwhelming the enemy.

This was the Two-Tails' first mission following Simu, and it was determined to impress him!

Opening its massive jaws, it unleashed a torrent of dark blue flames, incinerating countless Kumo Shinobi.

In the distance, Ai watched the scene unfold with despair in his eyes. Seeing Simu commanding the Two-Tails made it painfully clear what must have happened to Yugito Nii.

But Simu wasn't finished yet.

After sealing the Two-Tails, he used a significant amount of chakra to summon a massive Katsuyu.

"Mr. Kizaru, we meet again," Katsuyu Sage said softly.

The Two-Tails glanced at Katsuyu and huffed internally. Why does this slug always show up to compete for attention?

"I'm sorry for the trouble, Katsuyu," Simu said.

"No problem," Katsuyu Sage replied warmly.

Suddenly, Katsuyu's massive body split apart, and countless weapons erupted from it, raining down precisely on Konoha's camp to aid their forces.

"This... these are weapons!"

Various tools—kunai, shuriken, and more—rained down, exactly what the Konoha troops needed.

In an instant, the problem of Konoha's lack of weapons was resolved.

Simu also took care of the Demon Cat Troops, who had been striking from the shadows. Now, he could focus entirely on Ai with his unmatched speed.

The arrival of Simu had effectively turned the tide, solving nearly all of Konoha's challenges in this battle.

After distributing the weapons, Katsuyu Sage split into countless smaller forms, landing on Konoha Shinobi to heal their wounds.

"This kid is truly remarkable," Jiraiya muttered, a rare moment of admiration showing on his face.

"Hanyu Simu, your opponent is me!"

A booming, powerful voice echoed across the battlefield.

Simu didn't even need to look. He knew exactly who it was.

Without hesitation, he turned and delivered a powerful kick, meeting the incoming thunderbolt head-on.

"Lightning Style: Liger Drop!"

Ai's terrifying hand chop, crackling with thunder, struck fiercely. Simu's lightspeed kick collided with it head-on!

It was a clash of titans—light versus thunder.

Both were incredibly fast and powerful, and with Simu's Admiral-level physique, he was no longer at a disadvantage against Ai.

This was a true contest of strength and speed!

Light and thunder erupted in a dazzling explosion on Two-Tails' head.

"Two-Tails, go handle the other Kumo Shinobi," Simu commanded.

"Understood," Two-Tails replied in a sharp tone, turning and leaping into the battlefield.

A creature like Two-Tails—immense, powerful, and brimming with destructive potential—was a nightmare on the battlefield.

The Kumo Shinobi could do little to stop it, and with each blast of dark blue flames, Two-Tails incinerated several enemies at once.

This was the terrifying power of a tailed beast.

"Damn it..."

Ai grew anxious as he watched Two-Tails rampaging across the battlefield, killing his troops.

Simu didn't miss the opening. In a flash, he appeared right in front of Ai.

"It's not wise to lose focus when facing a strong opponent," Simu said calmly, driving his foot heavily into Ai's chest.

Distracted by the battlefield, Ai only had time to block with one hand.

The impact was devastating. A thunderous sonic boom echoed as Ai's body was sent crashing through over a dozen giant trees.

Finally, he came to a halt, digging his feet into the ground to steady himself.

If it had been anyone else, Simu's kick would have shattered their arm—or even killed them outright.

But Ai was no ordinary ninja. The attack only left him with a minor injury.

He shook his throbbing arm as lightning crackled around his body, his fighting spirit undiminished.

"Hanyu Simu, I hope you can keep up with me!"

Ai shouted, his feet smashing a massive hole into the ground as he launched forward at blinding speed.

He moved so fast he was nearly invisible to the naked eye.

If not for Simu's mastery of Observation Haki, even he might have struggled to track Ai's movements.

But it was precisely this kind of opponent that ignited Simu's fighting spirit.

"Impressive, Lord Fourth Raikage," Simu smirked as his body turned into a flash of golden light, colliding head-on with Ai's lightning-charged charge.

Two streaks of energy, one golden and one blue, clashed violently in the middle of the forest.

The collision was so intense that the surrounding trees shook, and the air seemed to vibrate with their power.

To the others watching from afar, it was a blur of flickering lights.

Their movements were so fast, no one could intervene—most couldn't even comprehend what was happening.

Even the Sharingan, renowned for its dynamic vision, struggled to follow their movements.

The ground cracked under their feet, and trees snapped like twigs as Simu and Ai clashed ferociously.

This was a battle that no one else could hope to participate in—only they could endure this level of combat.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, Two-Tails had fully unleashed its destructive power.

With its immense size and near-immortal vitality, it rampaged through the battlefield, drawing an overwhelming amount of firepower away from the Konoha Shinobi.

The tide of battle shifted the moment Simu arrived.

The Konoha Shinobi, now armed with fresh weapons and supplies, launched a full-scale counterattack against the Kumo Shinobi.

"Bakayarou, Konoyaro!" 

Killer Bee shouted, his usual rhymes forgotten in his frustration.

"Damn it, Two-Tails! How dare you betray the village!" 

If things continued like this, it was certain Kumo Shinobi would lose the battle.

The priority now was clear: take down Two-Tails!

"Bee, can you handle it?" Eight-Tails' voice echoed from within him.

"Leave it to me!" Killer Bee replied without hesitation.

He charged toward Two-Tails, unsealing himself mid-run.

In an instant, massive octopus-like tails erupted from Killer Bee's body.

Eight-Tails, an enormous beast even larger than Two-Tails, appeared on the battlefield.

Its colossal body rippled with powerful muscles, and its eight octopus tails swayed menacingly behind it.

Its head resembled a bull's, complete with four imposing horns—two curved forward and two pointing straight back.

However, one of the two forward-curving horns had been cut off

This is Orochimaru's masterpiece.

The terrible pressure brought by Eight Tails enveloped the entire battlefield.

Two-Tails, Matatabi, halted and stared coldly at Eight-Tails.

"Gyūki, I didn't expect you to show up here," Matatabi said in a sharp voice.

Eight-Tails, swaying its massive tails behind him, responded, "And I didn't expect you to side with Konoha."

"Is your Jinchūriki, Yugito Nii, dead?"

Eight-Tails could sense that Matatabi was in its full beast form.

In other words, Matatabi had broken free from its seal.

When a Jinchūriki loses their seal, there is only one outcome: death.

"Do you really need to ask?" Two-Tails, Matatabi, said firmly.

"But let me make one thing clear—my loyalty isn't to Konoha. It's to Lord Simu."

Eight-Tails, Gyūki, seemed a little surprised.

"Ah, so this Simu boy must be quite something to earn your allegiance so quickly, Matatabi."

Gyūki spread his massive arms, muscles taut like steel cables.

"You know you can't beat me,"

The tailed beasts had known each other for ages, and among the nine, Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails were undeniably the strongest.

Matatabi, despite her mastery over flames, held no advantage against them.

"You're welcome to try," Matatabi replied in a calm, soft voice, her face betraying no emotion.

It's true that defeating Eight-Tails in its current state would be impossible.

After all, Two-Tails had just fought Simu and, although it rested for a day, neither its injuries nor Chakra had fully recovered.

With Eight-Tails in top form, there was no chance of victory.

But still, Two-Tails spoke confidently.

The reason was simple: Simu.

Two-Tails needed to prove itself worthy of this new master through action.

There was another option, though.

It could wait for Simu to die. If Simu died, the contract would be broken, freeing it.

But after witnessing Simu's overwhelming strength, that idea never crossed its mind.

Seeing the look on Two-Tails, Eight-Tails seemed to understand and sneered.

"Has a dignified tailed beast really become someone else's Summoning beast?"

"How pathetic!"

Two-Tails scoffed, "Isn't it ridiculous that you're being ridden by this kid now?"

"Me and Killer Bee are friends!"

"Master Simu and I are family!"

"Uh…"

Eight-Tails was momentarily speechless.

With no reply, the battle continued.

Eight massive octopus tails shot toward Two-Tails.

However, among the nine-tailed beasts, Two-Tails was the fastest.

Being beaten by Simu for speed didn't mean it would be easily overwhelmed by the bulk of Eight-Tails.

With a firm stomp, Two-Tails swiftly dodged, its huge body gliding out of the way.

Eight-Tails' tail couldn't even touch the flame.

After dodging the attack, Two-Tails quickly opened its mouth and fired a series of dark blue fireballs.

"This level of attack…"

Eight-Tails countered by opening its mouth and releasing a large burst of jet-black ink, extinguishing the incoming flames.

With a powerful step, Eight-Tails charged toward Two-Tails.

However, Two-Tails didn't face it directly, instead evading and circling Eight-Tails around the battlefield.

During the skirmish, both Kumo Shinobi and Konoha Shinobi were unintentionally injured, but the main loss fell on the Kumo Shinobi due to Two-Tails' intentional distraction.

Although Eight-Tails was in a rush, it couldn't do much.

Its speed was no match for Two-Tails, and it lacked long-range attack abilities.

The only option for long-range attacks was the Tailed Beast Bomb, but using it here would likely wipe out the entire Kumo Shinobi army.

Meanwhile, Simu and Ai were locked in a fierce battle.

Ai's lightning blade grazed Simu's cheek.

In order to attack Ai, Simu didn't use elementalization. Instead, he allowed the lightning blade to cut his cheek and, in that moment, slammed his knee into Ai's abdomen.

Ai's figure froze.

Simu seized the opportunity and landed a flashing kick to Ai's head.

But Ai's willpower was far stronger than most. Despite the blow to his abdomen, he suppressed his reflexes and threw a punch at Simu.

The fist and kick collided, releasing a terrifying force.

Both were sent flying!

Ai crashed into a hill, while Simu was punched toward Eight Tails.

A flash of light erupted in front of Eight Tails, followed by a massive explosion.

"It's you..."

Both Eight Tails and Killer Bee spoke in unison.

"As expected of the future Raikage, that's terrifying," Simu said, rubbing his arm and looking up at Eight Tails.

"Huh? Eight Tails?"

Without hesitation, Eight Tails swung its massive fist down.

The shadow of the punch quickly enveloped Simu.

"Ah, Eight Tails is scary," Simu gasped in awe.

Two-Tails tried to rush to help, but it was too late.

Simu covered his arms with Armament Haki and, to everyone's shock, blocked the punch from Eight Tails.

"How is that possible...?" Eight Tails said in disbelief.

It's a tailed beast! How could a human be stronger than one?

"As expected of Eight Tails, very strong," Simu said with a smirk. A dark red pattern appeared on his face as he entered Sage Mode.

The moment he entered Sage Mode, Simu vanished with a flash of light. He reappeared beside Eight Tails.

"Have you ever been kicked by the speed of light?" Simu asked unexpectedly.

Killer Bee, confused and irritated, turned around to confront Simu.

But before he could react, Simu's powerful, glowing kick struck him in the face.

Eight Tails, feeling the impact, became dizzy and lost control, its massive body crashing to the ground.

"Hanyu Simu, your opponent is me!" Ai's golden hair spiked up as lightning crackled around his body, fully activating his upgraded Lightning Style Chakra Mode. The terrifying aura he released resembled that of a Super Saiyan. This was the strongest Lightning Style armor, mastered only by Third and Fourth Generation Raikage.

Simu smirked. "It's really scary, Ai. Have you finally used your full strength?"

Despite the comment, there was no trace of fear on Simu's face. This only made Ai angrier.

"Watch how I tear your mouth apart!" Ai shouted. In an instant, his figure disappeared, reappearing right in front of Simu.

The speed was so incredible that no one else could react—except Simu.

Ai's Tyrannical Lightning Style armor enveloped his elbows as he struck Simu with the force of a battering ram. 

Simu quickly crossed his arms and activated Armament Haki to block the blow. However, the impact sent him retreating several meters through the air.

The Fourth Raikage, not missing a chance, closed in for another attack.

But Simu was ready. He launched a side kick to Ai's arm, but Ai responded with a powerful punch at the same time.

Golden flashes of lightning clashed together, and the two were sent flying in opposite directions.

From the ruins, two streaks of light shot out, colliding again in mid-air.
