Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated

"roar!"

The yellow sand filled the sky in the sea of ​​Samana's consciousness. A shiny bald head stood on the seemingly invisible fine sand. In front of him, a fat and huge civet cat was waving its claws, raising its head and roaring,

The violent air waves caused by the roar made the monk subconsciously narrow his eyes. Just as he was about to open his mouth to make a deal with this ferocious beast, the other party lowered his head first, with unconcealable excitement in his copper-coin-like beast eyes.

"Bald man! You want power, right? As long as you can beat up that stinky cat, you can have as much magnetic escape chakra as you want!"

"Is this true?"

Salmon raised his eyebrows in surprise. Before, it was more difficult to borrow some power from Shukaku than to reach the sky. He didn't expect that it would take the initiative to borrow power this time.

"snort!"

Shukaku heard the words and snorted coldly. He had no intention of talking to this human being anymore. He raised his sharp claws and slapped them. The Samana felt that the world was spinning.

"Um, what is this?"

Opening his eyes again, Shamen was surprised to find that the unstable halo on the surface of the buckle that he had just inserted into the drive slowly dissipated, revealing a yellow-brown civet cat-headed buckle.

The cute and naive Q version of the civet cat is covered with very complex black lines, and the whole body exudes an obscure and mysterious aura.

"Bang~"

Just when Shamen was confused, the Wind Escape buckle originally inserted on the other side actually bounced out. Before he could react, the civet cat's big eyes flashed with a cunning light on the civet cat headband buckle around his waist.

"Crack!"

With a snapping sound, the tanuki headband buckle suddenly opened, revealing a Q version of Shukaku hiding in it with his hands on his hips showing off his power.

"The power of magnetic escape is loaded successfully."

The electronic sound without any emotion sounded again, and the yellow sand that appeared out of thin air instantly swallowed up Samana's body.

"Come again, what kind of plane is he doing?"

Yinjiao, who was in front of Shamen, frowned at the moment. Seeing the other party's long transformation and forward swing, he had a vague feeling in his heart, so he calmed down and asked the two tails in his body,

"Tsk, even using his original power, Shukaku is risking his life?"

Youlu looked at the Samana wrapped in yellow sand with a gloomy expression, with a hint of fear in his tone.

"It's just a competition, is it about trying your best?"

When Silver Horn heard this, he scratched his head with some sore teeth. As the first batch of tailed beast knights, he naturally knew what it meant for tailed beasts to use their original power. The look of contempt on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a deep look. of solemnity,

Wow~

At this moment, the yellow sand dispersed, revealing the tan civet cat knight inside, with blue and black lines all over his body. His hands were wrapped around visible fluctuations, and the surrounding yellow sand surged with the fluctuations.

"Kingdom of Wind, your emperor is back!"

Raising his hand, the civet cat knight admired the breath of magnetic escape in his hand. The big mouth under his visor opened in a terrifying arc. The sound coming from it made everyone feel very strange.

"Did you go berserk?"

Silver Horn's eyes narrowed. He had a lot of experience in going berserk, and he could tell at a glance that the person controlling the body now was not the previous Samana, but the owner of the Tailed Beast Card.

"Hmm"

The Tanuki Knight had just assumed an arrogant posture when a sudden headache caused him to curl his mouth and forcefully suppress Salmon's consciousness. Shukaku, who was controlling Salmon's body, said with a cruel smile on his face,

"Bald man, don't worry, I'm going to come out and play for a while, just think of it as the price for borrowing your power."

Shukaku, who had successfully forced the transaction, raised his head and looked at Ginkaku, who was waiting in full formation. The voice coming out of his mouth was very high-pitched,

"Youlu, let's see if I don't tear up your stinky mouth today!"

"Little silver coin, take care of it for me!"

Matataru is not a soft persimmon. Since Shukaku is so provocative, it no longer holds back. It roars in Ginkaku's sea of ​​consciousness, and the cold chakra spurts out, pouring all of it into the driver around his waist.

The next moment, a card depicting a ferocious tiger popped out of the card box on Yinjiao's waist. After taking it, he stuffed the card into the card slot of the drive.

"The wild tiger is coming."

"roar!"

A deafening tiger howl sounded, and a strange silver tiger with blue tiger stripes all over its body appeared next to Yinjiao. The huge claws on his hands exuded a cold light, and the scarlet tiger eyes fell on the civet cat knight, bursting out with terrifying energy. The fierce light.

"Bah bang bang!"

"Look, this is what we call a real match. Those guys over there are all fake matches~"

Uchiha Gin, who was sitting in the audience seat, clapped his hands excitedly when he saw that someone was finally playing it for real, turned his head and explained to several spectators with puzzled faces,

"A match-fixing?"

Several people in the spectator seats looked at each other and turned their gazes towards the knights who were fighting in full swing. The confusion in their eyes became even more intense.

"That's right, those guys are all louder than thunder, and their moves are all tests, and they don't even use the power of the tailed beast."

In the competition field, Wu Zheng controlled his body in the air at extremely fast speeds to avoid the water bombs that were pursuing him. Below him, Ghost Lantern Huayue raised his hands high, and his fingertips were continuously firing his signature missiles. Water cannon,

"Bandage man! Let's have a 1V1 battle between men!"

Seeing that Gui Lan Huanyue, who was standing on the ground, was unable to dodge his own attack, he suddenly lost his temper.

"idiot."

Wu rolled his eyes in the air, and then raised his hands in front of his chest. A dazzling white light suddenly lit up. The ghost lantern Huanyue below saw it and skillfully sided to avoid the oncoming Chen Dun.

Rumble~

The seemingly powerful Dust Release only left a small pit after hitting the ground, which made the people in the spectator seats dazed.

Isn't it the bloodline elimination that is said to be above the bloodline limit?

That's it?

Not far from them, Katsura, wielding a spear, was playing a ball-throwing game with the flying little potato Ohnoki.

The tip of the spear flicked, and several half-human ice balls appeared behind him. Ohnoki was not to be outdone. With a wave of his short hand, several magma balls emitting a hot breath appeared behind him. Following his thoughts, they crashed into the oncoming ice balls.

"Sizzle~"

The collision of extreme cold and heat seemed to be grand, but it was just that, flashy and superficial.

"That's right."

The few people present were also tactical geniuses. After carefully studying the battles of others, they found that some people were indeed slacking off, and they were pretending quite well.

"Hmph~ These four guys are really cunning."

After a brief thought, Tobirama Senju deduced the thoughts of the four knights from the Hidden Rock Village and the Hidden Mist Village, and then sneered and said,

"But isn't this also a tactic~"

Uchiha Gin pouted his chin and sighed slightly,

He finally saw that the two pairs of people from the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Rock Village had more than 800 cunning thoughts in total, pretending to fight to the death, but actually observing in secret, waiting for the other knights to be eliminated, and then they would take action to reap the benefits.

"It's so despicable!"

Chiyo frowned and protested with her fist raised in dissatisfaction,

"They should be disqualified from the competition and directly judged as losers!"

Her teacher was playing with his life there, but you guys are so soft and playing fake games there?

"It doesn't matter, someone will take action~"

As the organizer of the competition, Uchiha Gin naturally would not allow such lazy behavior to exist. He folded his hands across his chest and closed his eyes. His consciousness followed the wedges left on the tailed beasts.

"Hello, if you do this, it will be difficult for me to do it~"

Uchiha Gin's figure suddenly appeared in front of the three-tailed, four-tailed, five-tailed and six-tailed. He looked at the four tailed beasts who closed their eyes and said nothing, and waved his hand with embarrassment,

"Let me out!"

The four tailed beasts showed a fearful expression when they saw Uchiha Gin for the first time, but soon, the desire for freedom made them forget the fear of having their tails cut, and they opened their mouths and roared,

"Don't worry, don't worry, do you remember what I told you before?"

The four tailed beasts frowned when they heard this, and suddenly recalled that this hateful human in front of them also appeared once in the group chat before, and said a bunch of inexplicable words and then went offline.

"Fight?"

The four-tailed Sun Wukong grinned, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

"Yes, you know the competition outside, as long as you win the final victory, you will get permanent freedom~"

Uchiha Gin nodded, raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and the four tailed beasts suddenly felt their bodies lighten, and the restraints in the tailed beast cards were actually relieved a lot.

"Go, fight, one self-touch Tata open!"

Due to the loosening of the seal, the deep malice of the tailed beasts suddenly gushed out. Uchiha Gin, who had his back to the tailed beasts, raised his hands high, and his voice was full of excitement.

"Roar!!!"

Swoosh! ~

A water bullet brushed past Wu's visor. Feeling a burning sensation on his face, he looked gloomy. After stabilizing himself in the air, he angrily questioned Hozuki Huanyue who was shooting a pistol on the ground,

"Little mustache, are you serious?"

"Damn bandage man!"

Hozuki Huanyue on the ground, his yellow compound eyes turned into a bloodthirsty scarlet, his voice was full of madness, and his body was emitting pungent acidic gas uncontrollably.

"This is..."

Wu's eyes flashed with surprise. At the beginning of the game, the two groups of people were ready to fight to the death. As a result, Hozuki Huanyue quietly asked for an alliance during the battle, saying that they would eliminate the others first and then they would decide the winner.

As a Tsuchikage with a big picture view, Wu naturally had no objection to this proposal. After notifying Katsura and Onoki of the plan, the four of them started a fake match with much noise but little rain. It seemed that the game was in full swing, but in fact, no one was hurt at all.

After a long fight, no knight was eliminated. Just as they were sighing, the few people who were about to continue the fake match found that something seemed to have happened to them and their temporary allies.

"Human, have you forgotten who ruined your beauty? It was this bearded man in front of you. If it weren't for him, how could you be wrapped in ugly bandages, and how could your beloved girl leave you?"

Wu, who was frowning and thinking whether Gui Deng Huan Yue was going to make a real play, was suddenly hit hard in consciousness, and his spirit suddenly became listless. At the same time, a malicious voice quietly appeared in his mind.

The scene after being injured by Gui Deng Huan Yue was replayed like a kaleidoscope. When Wu saw his beloved girl turning away with disgust, he was instantly swallowed by the overwhelming malice.

"Damn little mustache!"

The blue compound eyes were replaced by violent scarlet, and the white body gushed out scorching steam, steaming the surrounding air to deformation. The murderous eyes fell directly on Gui Deng Huan Yue who raised his hands on the ground, and the big mouth under the mask spit out a hot and foul breath.

"Give me back my beautiful face!"

On the other side, the same situation happened to Gui and Ohnoki. At this moment, their eyes were full of violence. The two people who had just thrown the ball to each other were now fighting closely together.

"Bang~"

"You just called me Little Potato? That damn squinty-eyed man in a wig!"

"Wig? Hahaha."

Bursts of oozing laughter came from under the visor. Gui, who had been infected by the evil intentions of the three tails and went crazy, could only think of the scene of cutting potatoes.

"Huh? Are you starting to fight now? Didn't you just give me back to you?"

Chiyo, who was in the spectator seats, frowned in confusion, looking at the four fake knights who suddenly started punching the flesh, and turned to ask the silent Uchiha Gin next to him,

"Maybe my conscience has discovered it~"

Uchiha Gin, who had returned, spread his hands and said that he didn't know either.

In the competition field, he ignored Mako who was treating Kakuzu. Madara Uchiha turned his attention to the spectator seats. Looking at the frowning Senju Tobirama, he curled his lips in disdain.

"That Bai Mao is here to supervise the battle."

"Hmm"

Kakuzu, who was in a coma, finally woke up due to Mako's unremitting efforts. He looked up at the dark red knight beside him. He scratched his head in annoyance.

"Tsk, I actually made my employer go to hell personally."

"It's okay, Senior Jian, I can fight too!"

The considerate Mako shook his head, and instead of blaming Kakuzu for accepting his employment, he expressed relief,

"Sorry, he is indeed a bit too strong."

After a brief period of frustration, Kakuzu stood up with the short blade in his hand. He looked at Uchiha Madara, who was looking left and right not far away, with a very bitter smile on his face.

"Are you awake? Come on together, I'm in a hurry."

After glaring at Senju Tobirama, Uchiha Madara turned his gaze back and forth, looked at Kakuzu and Mako, and raised his hands expressionlessly.

Time waits for no one, Hasi Lama is still waiting for her to go back and save him~

"Ahem, cough, cough. Do you still remember what I taught you?"

Looking at Uchiha Madara, who was exuding a terrifying aura, Kakuzu turned his head after coughing a few times, looked at Mako with a nervous look on his face, and said softly,

"Sorry, I don't understand it"

"Okay, I get it."

Seeing the troubled look on Mako's face, Kakuzu instantly understood, then nodded, took a step forward with the short blade in hand,

"You can't help much if you can't reach a consensus with it. If I still fail this time, just surrender. After all, you are not fighting alone."

Kakuzu didn't look back, he just gave Mako an instruction in an understatement and walked towards Uchiha Madara.

"Master Divine Beast, please."

In Kakuzu's sea of ​​consciousness, Chongming, floating in mid-air, remained silent. After hearing the words of the man in front of him, it thought for a moment and nodded slowly, with worry in its sharp voice.

"Kakuzu, if you fail, you might die."

"Don't worry, Master Divine Beast, I have many lives."

Kakuzu smiled, and a look of determination flashed through his eyes that had turned green for some unknown time.

"Are you looking down on me by coming here alone?"

Uchiha Madara crossed his arms and looked at Kakuzu, who was walking towards him with a short blade, and frowned slightly. Does this bounty hunter not want to live?

"Sorry, I have to follow my professional ethics."

As a hired ninja, Kakuzu's first mission is to protect the safety of his employer, otherwise who would be paying him~

"In this case, I can only defeat you completely."

Nodding, Uchiha Madara expressed his affirmation of Kakuto's professionalism, then raised one hand, and the white hand light particles overflowed, instantly condensing into a sharp gun blade,

"I wonder if you have ever heard of a secret technique called Earth Resentment Yu."

Kakuzu, who stopped not far from Madara Uchiha, suddenly asked,

"Earth resentment?"

Uchiha Madara frowned, he had never heard of this secret technique.

"Don't you know? That's right. How can people from a big village know the secret skills of a remote country?"

Kakuzu, who was still looking forward to it, saw Uchiha Madara with a puzzled look on his face, and shook his head with slight disappointment. Then he thrust the short blade in his hand into the ground, put his hands together and began to form seals,

"That is?"

Everyone in the spectator seats was attracted by Kakuzu's movements. After seeing him forming seals, they all raised their heads and guessed what ninjutsu the opponent was going to use.

"What kind of forbidden technique is it? What a strange name."

"I've never heard of it, maybe from a small place~"

"It doesn't feel very impressive, it looks very rubbish."

"It seems that Earthly Resentment Yu is a forbidden technique in the country of Taki, right?"

A glimmer of light flashed in Senju Tobirama's eyes. As a master of ninjutsu, he had heard about the forbidden arts of various countries. He had vaguely seen the resentment in the records that Kakuzu just mentioned.

"That's right, it's the forbidden technique that comes with the power of deformed immortality."

Seeing that everyone did not know much about the Earth Resentment and Yu Technique, Uchiha Gin on the side explained to them the main function of this forbidden technique in general.

"The power of eternal life!"

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this, and they shouted excitedly. After all, in this era, there is no forbidden magic that dares to claim to have the power of eternal life.

"The power of eternal life? Humph~"

As a master of ninjutsu, Senju Tobirama curled his lips in disdain after hearing this explanation. He did not believe in any immortality technique.

If there is, the copyright is definitely his.

"Don't be happy so early. This power of immortality comes with a price."

"cost?"

"Become an undead beast that targets the living heart, neither human nor ghost."

Kakuzu formed seals quickly, so fast that afterimages appeared. As the last seal ended, a thick black liquid suddenly emerged from his body, like tentacles with life, moving towards The drive around his waist crawled away,

"Hmm"

As the black tentacles penetrated into the drive, Kakuzu's face showed a painful expression. Among the densely packed tentacles, white masks with different expressions were scattered among them. As the tentacles poured into the drive,

"One, two, thirty-two, are there actually twelve?"

Counting the masks on Kakuzu's resentment, Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Different from the five masks with five attributes in the original work, Kakuzu now actually has twelve masks. If he adds himself, doesn't he have thirteen lives?

As for why he could break through the limit of five masks, only Chongming, a tailed beast, could do it.

"Kakuzu, are you sure you don't want to keep one?"

In the sea of ​​consciousness, Chongming looked at Kakuzu who poured the last mask into the drive with a worried look on his face, and couldn't help but ask,

"Only in this way is it possible to win."

Holding back the heartbreaking pain, Kakuzu slowly pressed his hand on the restless belt. As the drive flashed a golden light, twelve cards flashing with various lights jumped out from it, floating in the air. At the side of the silver knight.

On each card, there is a monster drawn that looks like a human but not human. Kakuzu looked at the familiar faces on the cards with an expression of relief on his face.

"You traitors are somewhat useful now."

If you look carefully, you will find that the people depicted on these cards are somewhat similar to the high-ranking Taki ninja who harmed Kakuzu back then.

"Pretending to be a ghost."

Uchiha Madara, who was watching Kakuzu's operations from the side, felt vaguely uneasy in his heart, but he still said a stiff and sarcastic sentence as he came to fight a Q-tailed beast who claimed to be a quick-hitting racer,

"You'll know after you try it."

Kakudu shook his head calmly. At this moment, his heart was extremely calm. He raised his left hand and silently called Chongming in his heart.

"Master Divine Beast, please lend me your power!"

"After connecting Kakuzu, this is my strongest source of power!"

In order to live up to Kakuzu's awakening, Chongming decided to give it a try. The majestic tailed beast chakra poured out from his body and turned into a dazzling golden light that converged on his raised left arm.

As the golden light lit up, a thick card slot appeared on the gauntlet of his left arm. At the same time, a gold-rimmed Seven-Tails tailed beast card appeared in Kakuzu's right hand.

Picking up the seven-tailed card in his hand, which is as heavy as a thousand pieces, Jiao can feel that it is condensed from the original power of Chongming, and this also means that if the card is broken, the beast will die.

"Master Divine Beast, thank you for your trust."

A bright light appeared in the corner of Kakuzu's eyes. He felt an unprecedented sense of trust from Chongming, which was something that his colleagues at that time could not give him.

"Nanabi, load"

He solemnly swiped the Nanao card through the card slot on his left arm, and an emotionless electronic sound sounded.

"Hmm"

Sure enough, the mortal body of an ordinary person cannot bear the original power of the tailed beast at all. The moment Kakuzu swiped the card, his whole body trembled violently, and he couldn't help but moan in extreme pain.

Just as he was about to be tortured by this force until his body collapsed, the twelve cards floating around Kakuzu suddenly became restless, and the power of Yu Yu began to take effect.

The cards lit up with dazzling light, and after circling the corner, they rushed towards various parts of his body.

"Crack!"

"Crack!!"

Kakuzu's body began to shine with the same dazzling golden light, and he stood upright. Under the influence of the twelve cards around him, the violent power of the tailed beast card was compressed in his body.

Each card controls a part of the body, and the different powers are transformed into golden armor, which is attached to the legs, waist, chest, back, arms, and face armor in an orderly manner.
