Bang, bang, bang…
At this time, Naruto was using the colorful iron door to block all attacks from Shukaku.
Although the Totem of Undying could revive people, there is a prerequisite: the body cannot receive any damage within 10 seconds after coming into contact with the totem.
This was a conclusion Uzumaki Stark had reached after countless experiments on small animals and observing the white-haired uncle's deaths.
So, the moment Naruto jumped into the arena, he grabbed his trusty iron door and shielded Sasuke to prevent any possible harm.
Listening to the sound of Wind Release slamming against the door and feeling the tremendous force transmitted to his shoulders, Naruto once again revised his understanding of a Biju's power.
He'd always heard that Shukaku was the weakest among the Biju...
Even Kurama had said so.
But only now did Naruto realize...
Shukaku's weakness was only in comparison to other Biju!
If not for the special material of his door panel, a single Wind Release: Air Bullet from Shukaku would've turned it into scrap metal.
Naruto finally realized a truth...
You could say Kurama was strong, but you couldn't say Shukaku was weak.
As Naruto struggled to hold his ground, Naruto suddenly heard Sasuke's voice.
"THAT DAMN WHITE-HAIRED BASTARD!!"
Uzumaki Naruto: "???"
'Since when did this guy start copying my lines?'
'What did that white-… Kakashi-sensei even do to you?'
"Idiot, what's your problem?"
"How did you end up napping in the middle of a fight?"
"Where's your Three Thousand Lightning Movement?"
Naruto didn't ask why Sasuke started to cursing Kakashi the moment he revived, but instead started to speak sarcastically to Sasuke.
'Alas…'
'If this guy had even half a brain, Shukaku would never have taken the first blood.'
'He'd gotten way too cocky just because the Heavy Xuan Ruler could restore his Chakra and heal his injuries.'
'Seriously…'
'Did this idiot really think he was some kind of berserker?'
"Naruto...?"
"That statue of yours can bring people back to life, right?"
"Give me one."
Sasuke gritted his teeth as he stood up, and glared at the rampaging Shukaku.
The fact that his cross-dressing became known to every Uchiha Clan's members in the Pure Land wasn't just Kakashi's fault, the tanuki in front of him was also to blame!
From now on, every time he thought about entering the Pure Land after death and facing his parents... his clansmen...
The sheer humiliation made him want to explode!
Naruto's taunts only fueled Sasuke's hatred for Shukaku even more.
Right now, Sasuke only wanted two things: Kill this tanuki, or die trying.
Naruto glanced at Sasuke speechlessly, and finally threw another Totem of Undying to Sasuke.
This would save him from having to be on guard against Sasuke getting killed in the subsequent battles.
He even threw a rope to Sasuke.
Moreover, he was focused on by Shukaku's Wind Release for a long time, and any normal person would have gotten angry.
Especially the big fox in his stomach, which kept yelling at Naruto to beat the crap out of Shukaku.
But when Naruto told him to come out and fight, he flat-out refused...
Kurama's excuse was downright shameless, "I taught you everything you know. If you can't even handle Shukaku, you might as well go ram your head into a tree and die."
'This way, I can also get a new Jinchuriki.'
But Naruto knew the truth...
The big fox doesn't do it himself because of his weight.
It wasn't hard to imagine that if Kurama, which is now three times larger in size, appeared in front of Shukaku, he would definitely be laughed at.
After securing the totem, Sasuke tied it around his waist with several knots.
'At least he was being careful.'
To be on the safe side, Naruto also took out an immortality totem and tied it around his waist.
The faces of the Jonin, who were fighting around them, were almost twisted when they saw the two Genin below.
Both of them carried a 1.6-meter-tall strange statue on their backs, while one of them held a 2-meter-long giant sword, and the other held a 2-meter-tall colorful door panel...
If it weren't for the Konoha's forehead protectors on these two Genin and if it weren't for everyone's familiarity with them, they might have thought that these two were Orochimaru's men.
This was just too absurd!
"Sasuke! Let's go together!"
Naruto held the door panel, looked at Sasuke, and both disappeared from where they were at the same time.
They simultaneously chose to engage the rampaging Shukaku in a 'footwork' battle.
Naruto wasn't worried at all, as Kurama had told him that Shukaku had gone berserk because Gaara's life was in danger.
Right now, Shukaku was acting purely on instinct. In other words, the current Ichibi wasn't in its complete form yet.
Against such a Shukaku, Naruto was brimming with confidence. He didn't even bother to use portal, and just relied on his physical speed to instantly appeared behind Shukaku with the door panel in hand.
Meanwhile, Sasuke had no idea just how powerful a Biju could be. He simply assumed the creature was a shapeshifting tanuki, and the current situation was just it being forced back into its original form by him.
On top of that, with the extra 'revival item' on his back, Sasuke felt that having two lives meant he could solo this thing.
Sasuke activated Three Thousand Lightning Illusionary Body at full power, instantly surrounding Shukaku with a hundred shadow clones.
Although the Three Thousand Lightning Illusionary Body consume a lot of Chakra, as long as he uses the Heavy Xuan Ruler to hit the opponent, he can quickly recover his Chakra.
"ROAR…"
The enraged Shukaku grew even more furious at the sight of the insects flickering around him.
He roared at the sky, then slapped his belly repeatedly as countless wind-style blades rapidly expanded outward from his body.
Everything within the range of this attack was cleanly sliced apart.
Fortunately, the only ones present were these two cheaters. If anyone else was nearby, they would've likely been bisected at the waist.
Maybe Shukaku's Wind Release is very strong.
But the weapons in Naruto and Sasuke's hands could be used for both offense and defense. They both held the door panel and Heavy Xuan Ruler in front of them at the same time and rushed towards Shukaku's Wind Release barrage.
While running, Naruto was distracted and opened several portals, but due to his movement and divided focus, he only managed to redirect a portion of the Ninjutsu back at Shukaku.
In the next moment, the two of them appeared at Shukaku's feet, one in front and one behind.
Naruto glanced at Shukaku's rear and decisively thrust his iron door right into it.
Faced with the assault from behind, Shukaku's massive body stiffened and the release of his Ninjutsu was interrupted.
Seeing Shukaku frozen from his attack, Naruto shouted to Sasuke.
"SASUKE!!"
"NARUTO!"
Without needing further words, the two of them unleashed their strongest moves simultaneously.
Naruto clenched his left hand, and a fist-sized blue sphere gradually formed in his palm.
However, he did not dare to use the BijuKamehameha to attack Shukaku.
There were too many people around, and he was genuinely afraid of accidentally blowing the entire Konoha Village sky-high.
"Kamehameha!"
"Flame Splitting Tsunami!"
The two biggest cheats in the Shinobi World attacked Shukaku from front and back, unleashing ultimate techniques that looked completely out of place in this world.
A blue beam pierced through Shukaku's tail, while a crimson crescent of flames slashed across its belly.
At this moment, Shukaku, who had just emerged from his seal and hadn't even grasped the situation, suddenly felt an intense pain.
"HAHAHAHAHA!"
A familiar laughter echoed in Shukaku's ears.
"IT'S YOU!!"
"STINKY FOX!!"
"HOW DARE YOU!!"
Before the two Biju could even start their usual bickering, Shukaku's consciousness was forcibly beaten back into submission.
The main reason was that Naruto was afraid of unexpected troubles, so he opened a portal to the top of Shukaku's head, and kept smacking Gaara with the door panel.
By the time Sasuke snapped out of his daze, he saw Naruto swinging the giant door panel, mercilessly beating Gaara on the ground.
