Naturally, there are also players within Sunagakure.
It's just that players are too weak at this stage, so they have little presence in the Shukaku Rebellion in Sunagakure and even the Land of Wind.
However, players who personally experienced the Shukaku Rebellion would broadcast the entire event live to other players, and even to people in their own world.
Therefore, they all knew how terrifying Shukaku was.
Even in their world invaded by monsters, Shukaku's strength is at the very top of the pyramid among the invading monsters at this stage.
The players' three years in the world of Naruto have not been wasted; they have collected many secrets about this world and the ninja world.
This includes the nine tailed beasts and the matter of the jinchūriki.
Therefore, they would know that Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, is only the weakest of the nine tailed beasts, while Kurama, the Nine-Tailed Beast, is the strongest of the nine tailed beasts.
If even the weakest tailed beast, Shukaku, can display such terrifying power, then what about the Nine-Tails, the strongest tailed beast?
An indescribable fear instantly gripped their entire being.
Most Konoha players want to return to their own world and do not want to participate in this Nine-Tails' rampage.
But the system's message, "We are currently in the midst of a major event in Konoha Village and cannot exit," left them in despair.
In their despair, some players couldn't help but reveal all sorts of ugly behaviors: losing control, collapsing, howling, terrified, and resentful...
Although dying in this world is not true death, one's spirit and consciousness can still return to the original world.
However, once one dies in this world, one will never be able to return to this world, and all the abilities acquired in this world will also disappear.
In the perilous original world, the loss of ability meant danger and mediocrity, which was absolutely unacceptable to them.
Therefore, some very rational players, upon learning of the Nine-Tails' attack, were terrified but did not show their true colors; instead, they chose to evacuate Konoha Village.
Although leaving Konoha at this point would be considered an automatic withdrawal from Konoha's camp, and subsequent developments would be affected as a result.
But they can't care about that now. They can't even worry about their immediate life or death, so how can they care about the future?
Besides these two groups of players, a very small number of players also chose to actively participate in this Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage.
As the saying goes, fortune favors the bold; although the risks of actively participating are great, the rewards are equally great.
If they are lucky enough to succeed, they will likely become one of the top players.
Of course, they didn't participate blindly.
Although Konoha has suffered heavy losses in its high-level combat power, they have inadvertently discovered some strangers whose physical characteristics are similar to those of Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju, who had previously returned.
You should know that in the past three years, these players have gotten to know everyone they could in Konoha Village for the sake of completing the mission.
Therefore, they knew that these strangers had suddenly appeared in Konoha recently.
Considering Konoha's recent major actions, they suspect that Konoha may have anticipated the Nine-Tails' attack and made preparations for it long ago.
And that's why they dare to take such an unbearable risk.
Meanwhile, Jiraiya, Kakashi, and other high-ranking members of Konoha learned of the Nine-Tails' attack immediately.
Without hesitation, Jiraiya, Kakashi, and other high-ranking members of Konoha immediately teleported to the village entrance, heading towards the location of the Nine-Tails' attack.
Not only them, but also some strangers who had integrated into Konoha rushed to the place where the Nine-Tails was attacking as soon as they learned of the news.
During their journey, they demonstrated their extraordinary abilities.
However, unlike Jiraiya and other high-ranking members of Konoha, they did not show themselves immediately, but chose to watch silently from a hidden place.
Soon, Jiraiya, Kakashi, and other high-ranking members of Konoha were engaged in battle with Kurama.
Jiraiya knew that he no longer possessed his full power and was unable to summon the toads of Mount Myōboku.
Therefore, Jiraiya retreated to the second line, providing support while directing the battle, and waiting for the best opportunity to strike.
Under Jiraiya's command, the Barrier: Four Red Yang Formation was successfully executed, trapping the Nine-Tails.
Of course, the Four Red Yang Formation here is not the complete version of the Four Red Yang Formation, but a weakened version modified by Tobirama Senju that can be performed by gathering the chakra of four top Jonin.
However, even the weakened version can trap most of the Kage-level powerhouses.
Although the Nine-Tails' strength far exceeds that of a Kage, it can still hold it captive for a short time.
And that's enough.
Because this little bit of time is enough for him to get there...
Suddenly, a chilling voice rang out, "Spirit Summoning Technique!"
Upon hearing this, Jiraiya's lips curled up slightly, his gaze fixed on what lay ahead.
boom!
With a loud bang, Jiraiya saw a giant purple serpent, its size comparable to the Nine-Tailed Fox, appear before the Four Red Sun Formation.
At the very moment the giant purple serpent appeared, Nine-Tailed Fox broke free from the Four Red Sun Formation and charged menacingly toward the giant purple serpent.
This giant snake was none other than Orochimaru's summoning beast, Manda.
Manda had just been summoned and hadn't even figured out what was going on when he felt an ominous chakra attacking him, filling him with fear.
Looking up instinctively, Manda saw the ferocious-looking, menacing Nine-Tailed Fox heading straight for him.
This situation terrified Manda, who continued to curse Orochimaru.
Orochimaru simply ignored this.
Orochimaru was not afraid that Manda would flee in fear, because there was no longer enough time for it to escape.
The passage back to the Earth Dragon Cave after canceling the summoning has been temporarily sealed off by Orochimaru using a secret technique.
This also means that Manda's only option right now is to fight the Nine-Tails.
Of course, Orochimaru and the Konoha ninjas will all lend a hand to it.
The war has begun!
......
Chapter 642 Desperate Situation, The Return of the Dead!
Just as Orochimaru had hoped, Manda's enormous size immediately attracted Kurama's attention.
Manda was forced to fight against the Nine-Tails.
However, Manda's situation was rather miserable, and soon his body was covered with many wounds that revealed flesh and blood.
Clearly, Manda is no match for Kurama.
Naturally, the Konoha ninja seized the opportunity and launched continuous attacks on the Nine-Tails.
However, given the Nine-Tails' enormous size and terrifying power, the attacks from the Konoha ninjas could only serve as harassment.
In Kurama's eyes, the fireball of Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique was merely a small fireball the size of its own fingernail, and the water dragon of Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique was just a caterpillar...
How could such ninjutsu attacks possibly harm the Nine-Tails?
Seeing this, Mike Kay no longer hesitated and immediately activated the Eight Gates, opening up to the seventh gate in succession...
"The seventh gate... the Gate of Shock opens!"
As Matt Kai roared with a ferocious expression, his body began to emit blue steam from the evaporation of his sweat.
An extremely terrifying chakra burst forth from Might Guy's body, transforming into a storm that swept in all directions.
Aside from Kakashi, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru, who are extremely knowledgeable about Might Guy and the Eight Gates.
The Konoha ninjas, players, and strangers secretly observing from hidden places were all shocked by Might Guy's current state and the aura he exuded.
In their eyes, Might Guy at this moment was simply a humanoid tailed beast, terrifying beyond measure.
None of them expected that Might Guy, who was usually unknown, would possess such terrifying power.
At the same time, the Eight Gates Formation, a forbidden physical technique, also came into their view.
Admittedly, at this moment, they all felt a strong curiosity, even a longing, for this forbidden physical technique.
Might Guy, having opened the Gate of Shock, appeared instantly in front of the Nine-Tails' face.
Before Kurama could react, Might Guy, to everyone's astonishment, punched Kurama, which was dozens of times his size, and sent it flying.
Without stopping, Might Guy unleashed a powerful advanced taijutsu that could only be used after opening the Gate of Shock, aimed directly at the Nine-Tails, which had not yet landed, and roared, "Day Tiger!"
The next moment, the extremely compressed air in Might Guy's hand instantly expanded, forming a terrifying air cannon shaped like a tiger, and roared towards Nine-Tails.
boom!
Immediately afterwards, a deafening explosion rang out.
In their violently trembling eyes, they saw the enormous shockwave created by the Day Tiger after striking the Nine-Tailed Fox suddenly rise up, growing larger and larger until it formed a hemisphere of white air currents that covered the ground.
Its range is about fifty meters outward from the point where the tiger landed.
Furthermore, everything within a radius of about fifty meters was crushed by an extremely terrifying impact, and even the terrain was altered.
After Might Guy used Day Tiger, he withdrew from the Eight Gates.
Although Matt Kay can still persevere, the shock is taking a heavy toll on his body.
This Day Tiger attack had already caused Might Guy excruciating pain in all his muscles; if it continued, it would inevitably cause irreparable damage to his body.
So Might Guy withdrew from the Eight Gates and checked the situation of the Nine-Tails that had been hit by the Daytime Tiger.
Soon, the commotion caused by the day tiger subsided, and everyone saw the Nine-Tailed Fox lying motionless on the ground, covered in wounds.
Seeing this, some people's eyes already showed anticipation, excitement, and joy, and they wanted to cheer and celebrate.
Clearly, in their eyes, Kurama had already been defeated by Might Guy's Daytime Tiger.
Those strangers who had been watching the battle from the shadows couldn't help but look at Might Guy with astonishment.
They had to acknowledge the terror of Matt Kee's Day Tiger.
They all knew that if they were hit by the Day Tiger, they would likely lose their fighting ability or even die.
But the Nine-Tailed Fox...
Aside from them, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and others who were well aware of the power of the Tailed Beasts were not so optimistic.
They knew that the Nine-Tails couldn't be defeated so easily.
