Chapter 77 - Chapter 77: Seven-Tailed Beast Chōmei

"Look at you being so stingy. I'm just asking."

"That thing can be deadly. I'm not interested."

"Why don't you use it?"

Kawaki could tell what the Village Headman was thinking. He was just asking out of curiosity.

"I've said it's gone. How the hell can I use it?"

The Village Headman was on high alert. I just don't have it.

"Come on, you didn't even give me time to use it," the Village Headman grumbled silently. "So what if you're fast? Big deal!"

"Alright, alright, I won't ask anymore."

Seeing that the Village Headman was getting angry, Kawaki stopped asking. As long as I get the Seven-Tailed Beast, that's good enough.

There was no more conversation on the way. The Village Headman led Kawaki deep into the village, and the further they went, the more remote it became.

There were no villagers on the way. It was just the Village Headman, Kawaki, and the Taki Ninjas trailing behind.

After passing through a dense forest, the view suddenly opened up. In front of Kawaki was an ancient house.

"This is it, the sealed land of our Takigakure."

The Village Headman stopped and looked at the house with a proud look in his eyes. This was the masterpiece born out of Takigakure's own wisdom.

"It's nothing out of the ordinary."

Kawaki looked at the house and faintly felt a bit of wild Chakra coming from inside. This seal really wouldn't hold for much longer.

"Go in. The farther you take it, the better."

The Village Headman didn't bother to respond to Kawaki's words and started walking into the house.

The Taki Ninjas all stopped outside the house and waited.

Kawaki followed the Village Headman into the house. There was nothing inside, only spell words on the ground forming a circle.

In the exact center of the circle was a dark jar. There was nothing special about it.

The jar already had cracks on it. The Village Headman was telling the truth.

"The seal is specifically for tailed beasts and has no effect on humans."

The Village Headman probably saw that Kawaki looked a bit hesitant and stepped into the range of the [Sealing Technique] first. There was no abnormality at all.

"Better be safe. Sorry for the intrusion."

Kawaki slightly nodded with a bit of apology and approached the range of the seal.

A more violent Chakra rushed towards him, and the jar started to shake.

The Seven-Tailed Beast sensed that a human was approaching. After being imprisoned for so many years, it just wanted to go out and vent fiercely now.

"Take it away."

As the Village Headman said this, he even turned around as if he couldn't bear to see this scene.

Once he could no longer sense the wild Chakra of the Seven-Tailed Beast, he turned around only to find nothing behind him.

"Alas, it's good that it's gone."

A bitter smile appeared on the Village Headman's face as he stepped out of the house.

"Village Headman."

"Village Headman."

...

"The people from Konoha are gone. We don't have to worry about the Seven-Tailed Beast anymore."

"It's just that our Takigakure will probably be on life-support from now on."

The Village Headman looked dejected, but luckily no one in the village died this time, and Tsunade only caused some minor injuries.

Mainly, that punch of hers was just for deterrence.

"It's gone, so be it. At least the Seven-Tailed Beast will never threaten the safety of the village again."

"Once the Seven-Tailed Beast breaks out of the seal, we don't have the ability to resist now."

The speaker must have a high position. Standing beside the Village Headman, quite a few Taki Ninjas nodded thoughtfully after hearing what he said.

"Okay, everyone, let's break up."

The Village Headman had no mood to stay any longer. He touched the scar on his neck, which had already scabbed over.

No matter how fast you are, the Seven-Tailed Beast can fly. He hoped the Seven-Tailed Beast would knock Kawaki off his feet.

It could also be revenge for himself.

Kawaki carried the jar that sealed the Seven-Tailed Beast to the lake. Tsunade and the two young ones were waiting not far away.

Before Kawaki could talk to Tsunade, the cracks on the jar began to expand. The violent Chakra made the jar break free from its restraint.

It floated in the air. With an explosion, the jar shattered into pieces. They shot out in all directions, making a whooshing sound.

A huge mass of Chakra began to gather into a solid form in the air, and a powerful pressure rushed towards Kawaki.

This mass of Chakra gradually gathered into a beetle with six wings and a long tail. There was also a long and huge horn on its head.

"This guy is so ugly!" Nawaki complained to his sister. Minato was stunned. Could the teacher handle such a huge creature?

"If it's that ugly, you go fight it then!" Tsunade gave her younger brother a sideways look. How could he still have the mood to make jokes at this time?

Nawaki scratched his head. "I'm just here to watch the show. You guys deal with this dangerous stuff."

The two young ones moved closer to Minato and started discussing. With the teacher in front, they still felt very safe.

"Human, you're not very lucky to have met me," Chōmei opened his eyes and saw Kawaki in front of him. He opened his big mouth, and a huge amount of Tailed Beast Chakra began to gather.

The Chakra rotated at high speed, forming a high-density energy ball. Chōmei swallowed it again and spat it out at Kawaki.

This attack could probably flatten several mountains. No wonder Tailed Beasts are like nuclear weapons on the battlefield.

How many low - level Ninjas would die in this blast?

"Good timing," Kawaki activated the space - time barrier. The Tailed Beast Ball disappeared in mid-air, and then a huge explosion sounded in the distance.

"I know what the teacher's jutsu is! Holy cow!" Minato jumped up excitedly. After so long with no clue, he finally got enough inspiration from this Tailed Beast Ball.

"What the heck do you know? What are you talking about?" Nawaki was still confused. He didn't understand anything.

"I got an idea for the jutsu the teacher asked me to research!" Minato still got inspired from the Tailed Beast Ball. He believed that the day when the Rasengan would be invented was not far away.

"Take this from me too," Kawaki watched as Chōmei sprayed Scale Powder and dived towards him. It seemed that it was going to ram him with its huge horn.

"Sage Art."

"Swordsmanship, Fire Raijin."

Kawaki's body was wrapped in lightning - attribute Chakra. Cursed Seals appeared around his eyes, and his pupils turned golden.

He turned into a fire - breathing thunder dragon, dodged Chōmei's diving attack, and pierced through one of its wings.

The Fire Raijin enhanced by the Sage Mode was extremely powerful.

"Roar!!" The Seven-Tailed Beast let out a scream and crashed to the ground. One of its wings was disabled, and it temporarily lost the ability to fly.

"Human, you've angered me," Chōmei showed a fierce look in his eyes. He gathered another Tailed Beast Ball, and a Tailed Beast Ball no smaller than the previous one rushed towards Kawaki again.

Kawaki slightly curled his lips, with a hint of disdain.

Just now, the explosion effect of the Seven-Tailed Beast's Tailed Beast Ball was just average.

The eight-sided Han sword had gathered a large amount of Sage Chakra and emitted a dazzling light.

Swordsmanship: Death Anthem

Kawaki didn't dodge. He transformed into a searing lightning bolt.

With a "hissing" sound, the lightning bolt collided with the Tailed Beast Ball.

Tsunade was greatly shocked when she saw that Kawaki didn't use the Flying Raijin to guide the lightning again.

"Kawaki, retreat!"

Even the Seven-Tailed Beast showed an expression of disbelief in its eyes. How could someone use a sword to receive a Tailed Beast Ball?

"Boom~"

A violent explosion rang out, and the entire ground trembled. The ground where Kawaki confronted the Tailed Beast Ball head-on had sunken into a semicircle.

Right in front of the three individuals and the insect, Kawaki chopped the Tailed Beast Ball into two halves.

One half rose into the air and dissipated, and only the half that landed caused an explosion.
