His voice remained gentle, carrying a reassuring power.
Sasuke was momentarily speechless, a hint of embarrassment flashing across his face, but he was immediately pulled back to reality by the impending crisis.
Shisui smiled calmly: "Don't worry, Itachi is currently leading the Anbu in battle against the enemy. He sent me here because he was worried that you might be in danger."
Sasuke pointed at Gaara, who was even more enraged in the air because his attack had been thwarted: "This guy... something's wrong with him! He's in great danger!"
"Well, I see it."
The ease on Zhi Shui's face vanished instantly, and his sharp gaze fell upon the monster in mid-air that exuded an aura of madness and destruction.
His Mangekyou Sharingan clearly perceived the raging tailed beast chakra and chaotic consciousness within Gaara's body.
"Don't worry, I'm here to solve this problem."
He turned to Sasuke and Hayate Gekko and said quickly, "Sasuke, take Hayate-senpai and leave the arena area immediately. Go to Itachi. I'll take care of things here."
Looking into Shisui's deep Mangekyou Sharingan and sensing the powerful confidence in his words, Sasuke's unease instantly subsided.
He nodded vigorously: "Yes! Brother Zhishui, be careful in everything you do!"
Shisui smiled slightly, his smile filled with absolute confidence: "I am Shisui of Konoha Village, the 'Body Flicker'!"
Before he could finish speaking, Shisui's figure vanished in an instant!
"Roar--!!!"
Almost at the same time that Sasuke and Hayate began to retreat, Shukaku, driven mad by its will, saw its target trying to escape and let out a deafening roar!
The massive, sand-like body, carrying a foul stench, hurtled down like a cannonball in the direction Sasuke was fleeing!
The claws of destruction lashed out fiercely!
"Your opponent is me!"
Shisui's icy voice seemed to be ringing right next to Shukaku's ear!
His figure appeared like a ghost in the path of Shukaku's attack!
"Susanoh!"
A powerful, emerald-green chakra erupted from Shisui's body like a volcanic eruption!
In an instant, a gigantic, half-skeletal giant clad in ancient armor materialized behind him!
This skeletal giant only had an upper body, but the pressure it exuded was as if it were real, instantly enveloping the entire arena!
Shukaku's enormous, sand-like claws slammed into the emerald-green Susanoo's ribs, producing a dull, deafening thud!
However, the claws that were sharp enough to tear steel and crush rocks only left a few shallow white marks on the emerald green Susanoo's ribs!
It couldn't even make the Susanoo Giant sway in the slightest!
"Wha...what?!"
For the first time, an expression of disbelief appeared in Shukaku's enormous beastly eyes!
It felt as if its claws were gripping the hardest metal in the world!
"The strength is not bad, but unfortunately, it's not enough."
"Shisui inside Susanoo calmly commented."
With a thought, he suddenly raised his huge, emerald-green Susanoo bone arm and clenched it into a fist!
"boom--!!!"
Like a god beating a drum! The enormous emerald green bone fist, carrying overwhelming power, slammed heavily into Gaara's chest!
"puff--!!!"
Gaara's main body suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and the sand armor and dark red chakra that enveloped him shattered inch by inch under this punch!
The massive body, partially transformed into a tailed beast, was forcefully slammed away like a kite with a broken string.
It slammed hard into the wall at the edge of the arena, creating a huge dent!
The gravel fell down!
With just one punch, he severely injured the berserk, half-tailed beast-transformed Gaara!
"Ouch—!!! It hurts! It hurts so much!! I'll kill you! I'll definitely kill you!!!"
At this moment, Shukaku's will completely went berserk, and the excruciating pain and humiliation made Gaara completely lose his mind!
Gaara's body convulsed violently in the crater, and even more dark red chakra gushed out like an out-of-control flood!
Gravel is gathering like crazy!
"Since half-body isn't enough... then I'll crush you with my complete form! Shukaku! Come out!!!"
Gaara's roar was deafening!
Rumble——! ! !
The entire arena shook violently!
Gaara's body was completely submerged and swallowed by endless sand!
A colossal beast, so large it blotted out the sky and made entirely of sand, rose from the ground!
Its tan body was covered with violet curse marks, a huge tail thrashed wildly, and its single eye on its raccoon-like head was filled with boundless ferocity and destructive desire!
The one-tailed Shukaku has fully manifested!
"Gah gah gah gah!!! You filthy human! How dare you injure me! I'm going to grind you and this wretched village into dust!"
Shukaku let out a piercing shriek, and its massive sand claws, carrying a world-destroying force, slammed down on the tiny Shisui and his half-body Susanoo below!
"The complete form? Perfect."
Faced with this attack that felt like a mountain pressing down, Shisui's eyes within Susanoo remained unmoved, instead showing a hint of eagerness.
"Let me show you the results of your training over this period of time."
boom--! ! !
As Shisui continuously released chakra, the emerald green chakra surrounding him surged instantly!
Strong chakra muscles and meridians quickly covered the ribs of the half-skeletal giant, and ancient armor appeared on its body!
At the same time, two eerie green flames, like eyes, ignited on the giant skull!
A massive, spiraling longsword, burning with emerald flames, materialized in Susanoo's right hand!
The entire Susanoo became more solid and imposing!
Although it still only shows the upper body, its height and imposing presence have increased exponentially!
Susanoo - Crescent Slash!
With a low shout, the massive, emerald-green Susanoo swung its spiraling spear!
A massive chakra slash wave, condensed to its fullest extent and resembling a jade crescent moon, tore through the air with a sharp whistling sound, fiercely meeting the giant claw that Shukaku was about to strike!
laugh--!!!!
There was no earth-shattering explosion, only the ear-piercing sound of cutting!
The seemingly indestructible giant claw of sand was destroyed the moment it came into contact with the Emerald Crescent Slash Wave.
Like a hot knife cutting through butter, it was forcefully cleaved in two!
A massive amount of sand cascaded down like a waterfall!
“Ouch——!!!”
Shukaku let out a piercing roar of pain! Dust billowed from where its claws had been severed!
Although sand can quickly repair itself, the powerful cutting force and chakra impact of this attack still instilled a sense of fear in it.
That was the fear of being beaten up by Madara Uchiha back then.
"It's not over yet!"
Shisui's eyes sharpened, and Susanoo spread its arms, its ribs unfolding at the same time, with a red tomoe spinning wildly in its core.
"Susanohu·ninety-nine!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh…!!
Countless slender, sharp, emerald-green senbon needles formed entirely from a high concentration of wind-attribute chakra.
It poured out wildly from Susanoo's chest like a torrential rain of pear blossoms!
Its speed was like a green rain of light! Each sage contained a sharp power capable of penetrating any defense!
Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff...
The sound of piercing, so dense it made one's scalp crawl, rang out!
Shukaku's enormous body, made of sand, was as fragile as paper in the face of this terrifying rain of emerald light!
He was instantly riddled with bullets!
Countless sand holes exploded on its body! Yellow sand gushed out from its riddled body like a fountain!
"Gaaaaaahh ...
Shukaku let out an unprecedented scream!
Not only are these thousands of books extremely penetrating, but the wind-attribute chakra they contain is also rampaging and cutting through its body, hindering the sand's aggregation and repair!
Its massive body, like a deflated balloon, quickly became broken and tattered, and a large amount of chakra dissipated as the sand was washed away!
"Damn it! Damn the Uchiha! Damn Susanoo!"
Shukaku went completely insane; the excruciating pain and humiliation drove it to recklessness!
It forcibly mobilized all the remaining chakra in its body, and its huge mouth suddenly opened!
A highly compressed, purplish-black chakra sphere radiating destructive energy—
The Tailed Beast Ball began to rapidly condense in its mouth!
The target is Shisui and his Susanoo below!
This is its final and strongest counterattack!
