On the night of genocide, it would be reasonable to annihilate the Shimura clan.

Before he finished speaking, the mysterious man extended his index finger, and streams of green energy gathered at his fingertips.

"Immortal magic? The Curse of Life and Death!" The mysterious man shouted, and a green beam of light instantly attacked Shukaku, and wherever it passed, the leaves withered and fell.

"Hmph, a trifling trick!" Shukaku said contemptuously, and dodged the attack with a flick of his body. When he appeared again, he was already in front of the mysterious man.

Shukaku raised his sharp wolf claws and chopped the mysterious man's head.

"Bang~" A layer of water barrier appeared around the mysterious man, blocking Shukaku's attack.

"Shua!" Immediately afterwards, the mysterious man's palm turned into a knife and stabbed into Shukaku's left abdomen, trying to use the power of the Curse of Life and Death to completely seal Shukaku up.

"Bang!" The mysterious man's arm was kicked away by Shukaku, and blood spilt.

"Ouch~~" Shukaku raised his head and roared. A ball of red flame spurted out and swallowed him.

The mysterious man groaned, his face turned pale, and he took a few steps back, looking at Shukaku in horror.

"You...you..." The mysterious man trembled and said, "How could you have the ability to recover?"

"Hehe!" Shukaku laughed grimly, his eyes turned blood red, his body burned with hot red flames, and his body expanded rapidly.

"Roar~~" With a beast-like roar, Shukaku's body became bigger and bigger, turning into a hundred-meter-long red giant dog.

Shukaku jumped to the top of the mysterious man's head, opened his bloody mouth and swallowed him into his stomach.

"Crunch!" Shukaku chewed a few times and swallowed it.

"Gurgle~~" After swallowing the mysterious man, Shukaku burped with satisfaction, and his body gradually shrank. Finally, he returned to his original state and lay on the ground.

At this time, Shukaku was covered in blood and scars, and he was holding a stone tablet in his mouth, on which strange runes were engraved.

Shukaku licked his lips and murmured, "This guy really tastes good." After that, he raised his claws and pressed on the stone tablet, and suddenly a light blue chakra line flowed into it.

"Pop!" The stone tablet cracked, and an old man walked out of it.

"You actually woke me up from my dream!" The old man looked at Shukaku in a deep voice. He is the guardian beast of this village and the most powerful existence in the entire village.

"Humph!" Shukaku said coldly: "Don't think I don't know that this illusion was created by you. In this case, let me deal with you." Before the voice fell, Shukaku rushed up.

"Swish!" Shukaku's figure suddenly disappeared in front of the old man, and then a cold light drew an arc in the air and slashed down fiercely.

The old man raised his eyebrows slightly, waved his arms quickly, and wind blades shot out. However, he couldn't do anything to Shukaku.

The old man's face condensed, and his right hand formed a seal, and a ball flew out of his hand and hit Shukaku.

Seeing this, Shukaku immediately retracted his slash, his body turned into a red light, and flashed in front of the old man in an instant, waving his claws, tearing open the old man's chest, and blood splattered.

"Puff!" The next moment, Shukaku bit down with his sharp teeth.

"Sizzle~~~" Along with the friction sound of Shukaku's sharp teeth piercing the skin and bones, a sound of flesh being torn came from the old man, and the old man let out a shrill wail.

"Boom!" The next second, the old man's body exploded, and thick smoke and dust filled the air.

"Kacha~~~" Shukaku smashed the smoke with a punch, and was about to track the old man, but heard a tiny sound of breaking through the air in his ears, and a short spear formed by chakra approached him silently.

"Huh!?" Shukaku felt the danger, hurriedly turned sideways, dodged the attack, and turned to pounce on the old man.

"Hu~~!" Shukaku suddenly stopped, and an ice cone was deeply inserted into his back. The bright red blood dripped onto the ground along the ice cone, emitting a faint fragrance.

At the same time, the voice of the mysterious man came from the side: "Haha, I really underestimated you."

"As expected of the six-tailed beast, it is really difficult. If it were other tailed beasts, this move would be enough to seal them. But after all, you only have the tailed beast jade, and your strength is not complete. However, you are really troublesome. If your strength remains at its peak, I will never be your opponent. But now, hehe..."

"Asshole!" After hearing the words of the mysterious man, Shukaku was furious.

"Bang bang bang!" A series of attacks fell, Shukaku's attacks were extremely sharp, and each attack took away tens of millions of health points of the mysterious man. But it is obvious that although Shukaku has the upper hand, he cannot defeat him.

The two fought in the forest for half an hour, but still no one was determined. Instead, both sides suffered heavy losses. The mysterious man was covered in blood, panting, and his face was pale.

Shukaku was also covered with dense and hideous scars, and blood could not stop flowing.

"Damn it! This guy's defense is comparable to the Eight-Tails." Shukaku cursed inwardly.

"You are no longer capable! Hahaha, you are not the Eight-Tails after all, you are just a mere Seven-Tails, I will kill you sooner or later!" The mysterious man said arrogantly.

Shukaku heard this, and a violent aura rose in his heart. After all, he was a super boss who was invincible in the universe, but he was actually laughed at by a waste. How could he allow it?

"I admit that I am indeed exhausted, but don't be happy for too long, because I am about to win!" Shukaku sneered.

"Boom~~~" In an instant, Shukaku's body suddenly rose several times higher. It is covered in black scales, has two huge wings on its back, an even thicker and longer tail, and its claws are covered with sharp blades, emitting a chilling light that makes people shudder.

The mysterious man's pupils shrank suddenly, and he looked at Shukaku, who suddenly swelled up, in shock. "What, what is this?!"

"You don't deserve to know!" Shukaku grinned, revealing his sharp fangs, "Die for me!"

After the words fell, Shukaku used his claws to grab the mysterious man's chest fiercely.

"Bang!" With a muffled sound. The mysterious man flew backwards, broke the tree, fell into the mud, and his body twitched violently for a few times before he fainted.

Shukaku looked down at the dying mysterious man and said contemptuously: "So weak! Not as good as Vulpix!"

"Swoosh--" A gust of wind came, and Shukaku hurriedly twisted his body and narrowly avoided this fatal sneak attack.

"Who!? Get out!" Shukaku roared angrily. If it weren't for his agility just now, he would have died. Thinking of this, he felt a murderous intent.

"Swoosh!" The next moment, a masked man in black appeared in front of Shukaku. He held two kunai in his hand and stared at Shukaku coldly, "Hand over the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki. I will spare your life!"

"You are looking for death!" Shukaku roared and rushed forward again.

The masked man in black snorted coldly: "You are not tactful!" As he said that, a phantom of the moon appeared behind the masked man in black, and then a phantom of a crescent moon appeared out of thin air behind the masked man in black, emitting a strange cold luster.

"Yin Yang Release: Moon Wheel."

"Swish!" The crescent moon phantom instantly stabbed Shukaku and arrived at Shukaku's chest in the blink of an eye.

"Dang~~" Shukaku stretched out his sharp claws to block the Moon Wheel, and a clanging sound of metal and iron intersecting was heard, and a group of dazzling electric sparks scattered from the collision.

"Bang" With a loud noise, Shukaku retreated several steps, and a sharp pain spread from his palm to all parts of his body.

"Huh? Who is this guy? Why does he use lightning chakra? Is he also a member of Akatsuki?" Seeing the lightning chakra used by the masked man in black, Shukaku frowned and fell into deep thought.

"Who are you?" Shukaku narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice.

"Hehe..." The masked man in black smiled coldly, his tone full of sarcasm: "Don't you even know your own enemy?"

"Enemy?" Shukaku frowned slightly, then shook his head and said: "No matter who you are, if you dare to stop me from taking back the Eight-Tails, I will kill you today even if I risk my life."

"Oh?" The masked man in black seemed to have heard something funny and laughed.

"What are you laughing at? Do you think I can't do anything to you?" Shukaku shouted angrily and rushed up again.

"Swish!"

The next moment, Shukaku appeared behind the masked man in black, and his sharp claws slapped down without hesitation.

However, when the claws were only three centimeters away from the masked man in black, Shukaku stopped abruptly.

"Buzz~~" A layer of invisible ripples spread out, and everything around Shukaku was still.

"How could this happen?" Shukaku's face was full of horror. It clearly felt that it had touched the other party's body, but in the end it was always just a little bit short. This feeling of powerlessness made it angry.

"What kind of technique is this?" Shukaku widened his eyes and roared with unwillingness.

However, the masked man in black seemed to have ignored Shukaku at all. He still stood there indifferently, staring at Shukaku coldly, slowly raised his right fist, and aimed at Shukaku's head.

"Puff!" Accompanied by a crisp tearing sound, the masked man in black's right arm suddenly exploded, turning into a bloody rain that splashed down.

"Ah~~" The masked man in black howled, his face turned pale, and he staggered back a few steps. His right hand had been forcibly cut off, leaving only his left hand tightly grasping the broken arm.

"Damn it!" Covering his bloody right shoulder, the masked man in black gnashed his teeth and glared at Shukaku, his eyes full of resentment and unwillingness.

Shukaku was also stunned, looking at the broken arm and limbs in front of him, with a complex look in his eyes.

After a long time, Shukaku sighed, "Forget it, I'll go first!" As he said that, Shukaku quickly turned and flew away, disappearing into the night.

"Asshole!" Watching Shukaku running away, the masked man in black flashed a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, and said coldly: "You can't run away!" After that, he immediately took out the communicator and contacted the other two: "Hello? Madara-sama? I'm in trouble... Okay, I'll try to delay him and wait for support."

"Damn guy, I actually paid such a price." The man in black muttered angrily.

With a "swish", a burly man with bronze skin, well-built muscles, and a red robe suddenly appeared next to the masked man in black.

"Mr. Madara, you are finally here!" Seeing this, the masked man in black shouted excitedly.

"Yes." The man nodded slightly.

"Mr. Madara, we have to catch up with that kid as soon as possible. Although that kid is very strong, he will definitely not last long." The masked man in black reminded: "I was injured just now, I am afraid I can't hold on for long, we must end the battle quickly, otherwise it will be very dangerous."

"Don't worry. A mere little kid can't make any waves." Mr. Madara said lightly. He raised his head and glanced at the night, with a wicked arc at the corner of his mouth, and sneered: "However, this kid should not only be Uchiha Itachi, but also have the characteristics of the nine-tailed fox. That's why he can defeat you and even seriously injure you."

The masked man in black nodded and agreed: "Yes."

"In that case, I will do it myself." Mr. Madara said lightly.

"Mada, no. This guy's phantom chakra is very strange, and it can transfer the enemy's attack to other things. I suffered a loss just now, otherwise I would have killed him long ago." The masked man in black said anxiously.

"Hehe..." Madara smiled slightly after hearing this, and said, "Don't worry, this little thing is not difficult for me."

"Mada, you mean..." The masked man in black was a little confused.

"Well." Madara raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and his right hand suddenly stretched out. In an instant, a ray of dark yellow chakra emerged from his right hand and quickly condensed into a dark yellow sphere.

"Hula!" With a sound, the dark yellow sphere flew directly through the air, cutting through the sky and rushing towards the distance.

At the same time, Shukaku, who was about to leave the forest, suddenly noticed something, his face suddenly changed, and he suddenly accelerated.

However, when Shukaku was halfway through the flight, the dark yellow sphere suddenly exploded. In an instant, dark yellow chakras escaped from the explosion, like tiny ripples, covering a radius of 100 meters.

"Oops!" Shukaku's face changed drastically, and he quickly retracted his tail to protect himself in his body. The next moment, dense dark yellow chakra hit Shukaku's tail fiercely. After a burst of "crackling" muffled sound, Shukaku was shot down.

"Wow wow wow ~~" Shukaku spit out a few mouthfuls of blood, curled up, motionless, obviously fainted.

"Huh ~~" Madara swayed for a while, knelt on one knee on the ground, panting, and beads of sweat the size of beans oozed out of his forehead.

After a long time, Madara took a deep breath, climbed up with difficulty, and slowly approached the place where Shukaku fell. When Madara walked in, he could see Shukaku's appearance clearly.

"This is Shukaku. I didn't expect him to be beaten into such a miserable state. It's really embarrassing!" Madara shook his head bitterly, and then carried the unconscious Shukaku on his shoulders.

"Bang!" The next moment, Madara stomped his feet hard on the ground, and the whole person instantly took off into the air and flew away.

"Swoosh!" Just as Madara left, a black shadow suddenly descended from the sky and landed on the ground where Madara was before. It was the masked man in black.

Looking at the disappearing Madara's back, the masked man in black had a gloomy face.

After a while, the masked man in black took out a black ring from his arms, and then dripped a few drops of blood on the ground, and then silently recited a few curses. With a "click", the shadow of a huge stone suddenly appeared on the surface of the black ring.
