Chapter 127: 127 A Monster More Terrifying Than A Tailed Beast!
Sensing two terrifying auras erupting in the distance, Simu's heart sank.
"I'm too late,"
As a time traveler, he couldn't imagine iwa Shinobi recklessly unleashing two tailed beasts on the battlefield.
His mind immediately went to the true mastermind lurking in this world—Uchiha Madara.
Ordinary people had no chance of controlling two tailed beasts simultaneously. But Madara? He was different.
This was the man who once toyed with the strongest tailed beast, the Nine-Tails, as if it were nothing.
Even though Madara was old by now, with the aid of Black Zetsu and White Zetsu, it wouldn't be impossible for him to control the tailed beasts from Iwa Shinobi.
And Madara's target? It could only be his foolish student.
A blazing flame ignited around Simu as he dashed toward the battlefield at top speed.
Minato, sensing the overwhelming auras, felt a chill run through him. His expression darkened as he looked up at the colossal forms in the sky.
Konoha's ninjas stood frozen, stunned by the sight before them.
"Two tailed beasts... and now this? What kind of monster is here?"
Kakashi's gaze locked onto the massive figure hovering above the battlefield. His expression twisted with confusion.
"Is that... a dragon?"
Hovering in the sky, the giant dragon exuded an overwhelming presence. But Five Tails, Kokuō, paid no attention to what it was.
Instead, it unleashed another torrent of superheated steam from its mouth, aimed straight at Kakashi and Rin's position.
Simu, monitoring the battlefield with his Observation Haki, reacted instantly.
"Bolo Breath!"
A blazing, radiant beam of flame erupted from Simu's mouth, slicing through the air like a burning sword. Its path was set directly toward the Five Tails.
Sensing the overwhelming power of the attack, Kokuō quickly adjusted, redirecting its steam attack to block the incoming assault.
A massive collision of heat and steam erupted in the sky.
Water vapor clashed with searing flames, creating a massive explosion that filled the battlefield with black smoke.
The thick smoke was quickly torn apart by Simu's sharp air blade, slicing through with ease.
The devastating attack struck Kokuō directly, but as a Tailed Beast, its physical resilience was extraordinary. The air blade, capable of cutting through steel, only left streaks of scorched marks across its tough hide.
Simu's massive form twisted in mid-air, shattering the lingering smoke as he descended. His powerful claw slammed down on Kokuō with immense force, pinning the Five Tails to the ground under his crushing weight.
The impact left a massive crater as the two enormous bodies collided, denting the earth beneath them.
Simu opened his jaws wide, unleashing flames of extreme heat that engulfed Kokuō entirely. The inferno roared violently, forming a sea of fire that even began to melt the ground around it.
From within the blazing flames, a voice rang out.
"Leave these two tailed beasts to me! Everyone, retreat now!"
Kakashi's eyes widened in shock as he recognized the voice.
Although the voice was rough, Kakashi and Rin immediately recognized it.
"It's Teacher Simu's voice!" Rin exclaimed, her eyes lighting up with a mix of surprise and relief.
Minato, though startled by Simu's transformation, knew this wasn't the time to ask questions. He quickly took control of the situation.
"Everyone, retreat immediately!" he commanded firmly.
Hearing the urgency in both Simu's and Minato's voices, the Konoha ninjas didn't hesitate. They quickly withdrew from the battlefield, following orders without question.
Meanwhile, the Four Tails in the distance turned its fiery red eyes toward Simu.
"Roar!"
The massive beast let out an earth-shaking roar, pounding its chest with its thick fists like a war drum.
Suddenly, it opened its fanged mouth and unleashed a colossal stream of molten magma, the scorching pillar shooting straight toward Simu with devastating power.
Simu's massive body swiftly shrank, transforming into a hybrid human-beast form about seven or eight meters tall.
The magma pillar from the Four Tails roared past him, narrowly missing its mark. As the Five Tails began to rise from the ground, Simu wasted no time.
Gripping his mace tightly, he swung it with immense force.
"Mighty Country!"
A surge of Armament Haki combined with the power of thunder erupted, unleashing a massive shockwave.
The blow sent the Five Tails hurtling through the air, carving a deep gully over ten meters into the earth.
Simu stomped the ground, and in an instant, he vanished in a flash of light, reappearing directly in front of the Four Tails.
Unlike the world of pirates, there were no restrictions here on wielding the power of two abilities at once.
This meant one thing:
Simu retained the blistering speed of the Light Fruit while harnessing the overwhelming strength and durability of the Dragon Fruit.
The Four Tails swung a massive punch toward Simu, meeting the full force of Simu's mace head-on.
The collision unleashed an immense shockwave, shaking the battlefield as the force traveled through the Four Tails' legs, shattering the ground beneath them.
Wukong's four thick tails lashed out, attempting to ensnare Simu.
Without hesitation, Simu shifted instantly into his full dragon form.
The Four Tails, caught off guard by Simu's rapid transformation, was unable to react in time.
Simu's powerful jaws clamped down on the Four Tails' shoulder, his fangs sinking deep into the beast's flesh.
The tremendous force from the dragon's bite crushed muscle and chakra, the latter dissipating into the air as dark red wisps.
The Four Tails, intending to restrain Simu, instead found itself tangled and overpowered by the dragon's overwhelming strength.
The massive Four Tails was no match for Simu in his fully dragonized form, appearing more like a normal ape struggling against a predator.
Raging clouds of twisting flames enveloped Simu, lifting him and the Four Tails into the sky.
Meanwhile, the Five Tails, charging from a distance, struck the ground with immense force, creating a massive crater as its target vanished into the air.
Simu, in his dragon form, soared high into the sky with the Four Tails locked in his grip.
During the ascent, the Four Tails fought back relentlessly, pounding Simu's body with magma-covered fists.
But Simu's dragon form was as tough as steel, and the fiery punches merely knocked flames off his scales without causing real harm.
Enduring the constant blows, Simu climbed higher, bringing the Four Tails thousands of meters into the air.
Realizing Simu's intent, the Four Tails desperately tightened its grip, wrapping its four tails around Simu in an attempt to trap him.
Simu, unfazed, smiled slightly.
In an instant, he deactivated his Devil Fruit ability, shrinking from a massive dragon hundreds of meters long to his human form, less than two meters tall.
Faced with the suddenly smaller Simu, the Four Tails lost its grip in the sky.
Under the pull of gravity, it plummeted toward the ground like a meteorite.
As it fell, the Five Tails looked up and saw a dazzling red streak—Simu, diving straight down after it.
The familiar figure of Simu grew larger and clearer with each passing moment.
The Five Tails, sensing danger, wasted no time. Steam erupted from its body, propelling it at incredible speed, and it vanished from the scene in an instant.
Meanwhile, the Four Tails spewed molten lava across the ground, softening it to cushion its fall.
But even with the molten ground, the impact from several thousand meters was devastating.
The massive body of the Four Tails slammed into the lava with earth-shaking force.
Blinding fire erupted, and the thick, molten ground trembled violently.
The entire battlefield began to crumble, engulfed in smoke and flames, filling the air with the pungent stench of lava and scorched earth.
Amidst the flames, the Four Tails struggled back to its feet.
Its legs, twisted and deformed from the powerful impact, trembled under its massive weight.
But the dark red Chakra flowing around its body began rapidly repairing the damage, restoring its form.
Minato stood several thousand meters away, observing the scene.
The sight of the Four Tails rising from the flames brought a flicker of disappointment to his face.
"Even that kind of impact wasn't enough to take it down?" Kato Dan muttered in disbelief.
Minato shook his head with a faint, bitter smile.
"This is why tailed beasts are regarded as the most terrifying weapons in the world,"
"And on this battlefield, we're dealing with two of them."
On the other side, the equally massive Five Tails loomed closer, its steps slow but menacing.
Kato Dan glanced at the Konoha shinobi who had safely retreated and let out a sigh of relief.
He then turned to Minato with a faint smirk.
"Luckily, we've got something even more terrifying than a tailed beast on our side."
Minato glanced at Simu, who was slowly descending from the sky, and said, "Makes sense."
"As expected of a tailed beast. Even a fall from thousands of meters couldn't take you down."
Simu landed gracefully, the ground cracking slightly beneath his feet.
He wasn't surprised by his own resilience—falling from heights of 10,000 meters without any protection and surviving unscathed was something he'd grown used to.
"Roar!"
The Four Tails let out a furious roar, its anger erupting like a volcano.
Ever since being separated from the Sage of Six Paths, it had never been humiliated like this.
Slamming its massive hands into the ground, its mouth began to swell, fangs bared in rage.
Two enormous streams of Chakra—Yin and Yang—started swirling and merging in its mouth.
Within moments, the energy condensed into a pitch-black Tailed Beast Bomb, pulsating with destructive power.
With a thunderous roar, the Four Tails unleashed its full fury, launching the Tailed Beast Bomb straight at Simu.
Simu glanced back briefly at the fleeing iwa Shinobi troops.
Without hesitation, he turned and shot toward their direction.
The Tailed Beast Bomb followed closely, closing in fast.
Just as it was about to reach him, Simu transformed into a flash of light and shot straight up into the sky at a 90-degree angle.
The Tailed Beast Bomb, unable to make such a sharp turn, hurtled forward, directly toward the retreating iwa Shinobi unit.
In an instant, the crimson explosion engulfed the fleeing troops, leaving no trace of them behind.
High above, Simu reverted to his dragon form, coiling majestically in the sky.
A scarlet light flashed in Five Tails' eyes.
With a sharp roar, its body shot up from the ground, propelled by steam, charging toward Simu in the air like a rocket.
This time, Simu didn't retreat.
Instead, he surrounded himself with blazing flames.
"Fire Dragon Torch!"
Simu transformed into a magnificent fire dragon and descended from the sky.
The two collided mid-air, hot flames meeting steam, resulting in a dazzling explosion of white light.
