"Who are you?!"
Blue B looked at the long-haired man wearing a mask in front of him with a vigilant expression.
This guy was able to bypass the guards and appear inside his tent.
He was absolutely no ordinary person.
Moreover, anyone who dared to infiltrate the Kumogakure camp alone must have tremendous confidence in their own strength!
"The Eight-Tails Jinchūriki… this old man has finally found you." Renya said in a deep voice using Madara's tone. "As for who I am, you are not worthy of knowing."
"You bastard!"
Blue B shouted angrily as the tailed-beast chakra began to overflow from his body.
His voice was loud, immediately drawing the attention of the Kumogakure ninja.
"Trying to summon your companions?" Renya sneered. "Unfortunately, you don't have the chance."
As he spoke, he used the Body Flicker Technique and appeared right in front of Blue B.
So fast!
Blue B had not expected the person before him to possess such terrifying mastery of the Body Flicker Technique.
Before he could even react, Renya placed a hand on his shoulder.
The two of them vanished from the spot in an instant.
"Blue B!"
The Second Raikage, surrounded by dazzling lightning, charged straight into the tent.
The Eight-Tails was Kumogakure's war weapon—nothing could be allowed to go wrong!
He had been asleep, but the moment he heard Blue B's shout, he immediately got up and rushed to provide support.
In the end, he was still too late.
When he rushed into the tent, it was already completely empty.
The Second Raikage stared at the vacant tent, flames of anger rising in his eyes.
"Damn it, who on earth was it?!"
Their village's Eight-Tails Jinchūriki had disappeared without a sound.
Which bastard was targeting Kumogakure?!
And it was far too strange.
Blue B was, after all, the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki—his strength went without saying.
Yet in the blink of an eye, he vanished without a trace.
This was unbelievable!
No matter how much the Second Raikage racked his brain, he couldn't figure out what had just happened.
How could their village's Eight-Tails Jinchūriki simply be gone?
"You all go search! Alive, I want to see him; dead, I want to see the body!"
The Second Raikage roared furiously at the countless Kumogakure ninja at the entrance.
He refused to believe that a living person could just disappear like that—he must have been hidden away by some means.
The Kumogakure ninja present immediately reacted and began searching the surrounding area for Blue B.
"Contact the Tsuchikage and tell him about this."
The Second Raikage gradually calmed down and instructed his adjutant to contact Ōnoki.
Kumogakure and Iwagakure were temporarily allies; he believed the Tsuchikage would help search for Blue B's whereabouts.
...
At the frontline Iwagakure camp, the command tent.
"The Eight-Tails Jinchūriki of Kumogakure has disappeared?"
Ōnoki listened to the adjutant's report, surprise appearing on his face.
How could a perfectly healthy living person vanish in the blink of an eye?
There had to be some ill-intentioned individuals involved!
Ōnoki's gaze flickered, and an unpleasant figure surfaced in his mind.
Uchiha Renya!
If there was anyone in the ninja world who could do something like this, it would definitely be that damn guy.
The Flying Thunder God Technique was a powerful space-time ninjutsu.
If Renya secretly infiltrated the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki's tent and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to transfer him away before anyone could react, he could make Blue B disappear from the camp in an instant.
"It must be this guy!"
Ōnoki angrily slammed his fist onto the solid wooden table.
The innately evil Uchiha Renya!
Not only had he killed their village's Four-Tails Jinchūriki, Rōshi, he had even set his sights on Kumogakure's Eight-Tails Jinchūriki!
"Do you really think we have no way to deal with you?!"
Renya's strength was indeed extremely powerful—when facing their encirclement, he had even managed to kill the Mizukage in return.
But that didn't mean he was invincible.
Iwagakure possessed a sealing technique that could restrict space-time ninjutsu; as long as they lured Renya into it again, his Flying Thunder God Technique would be rendered unusable.
Without the Flying Thunder God Technique, Renya would be nothing more than meat on the chopping block, to be slaughtered at their whim!
"Heh heh, Uchiha Renya, we'll see about that."
Ōnoki sneered and immediately ordered his speculation to be relayed to the Second Raikage.
Given Renya's power, the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki was likely already dead.
But that was fine—at least Iwagakure wouldn't be the only village to lose a Jinchūriki.
This war had truly cost their three ninja villages dearly.
Iwagakure had lost the Four-Tails Jinchūriki, and Kumogakure had lost the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki.
And Kirigakure had it even worse—the Mizukage had been killed by Renya.
No wonder that Kazekage absolutely refused to agree to an alliance…
But it didn't matter. As long as he killed Renya, these losses would amount to nothing.
Even if the Jinchūriki died, the tailed beasts could revive.
At worst, once the Four-Tails revived in the future, Iwagakure would simply capture and seal it again.
It would just require training a new Jinchūriki.
...
In a forest several hundred miles away from the Kumogakure camp.
The two figures appeared instantly.
Blue B looked at the unfamiliar surroundings before him, somewhat dazed.
Just now, this mysterious person had merely placed a hand on his shoulder, and with a blur before his eyes, he had appeared in several unfamiliar locations.
Renya worried that the aftermath of a battle would alert the Kumogakure ninja, so he used the Flying Thunder God Technique four or five times in succession, bringing the two of them hundreds of miles away.
"Alright, this will do."
"Who the hell are you, and what do you want?!"
Blue B stared at the ill-intentioned mysterious figure before him and immediately pulled back to create distance.
This guy was far too strange—he absolutely couldn't let his guard down!
Without any hesitation, he immediately activated his body with Lightning Release and launched a direct attack.
"Lightning Lariat!"
Blue B used Kumogakure's classic taijutsu, relying on terrifying explosive power to turn himself into a human cannonball and slam straight into Renya.
This strike was powerful enough to shatter rock.
The mysterious man had brought him here—he was definitely harboring malicious intent.
Since that was the case, the only option was to defeat him first, then interrogate him about his purpose.
Beneath the mask, Renya's eyes turned scarlet, the three-tomoe Sharingan precisely capturing the trajectory of the attack.
With just a sidestep and a sliding movement, he easily evaded the deadly blow.
Seeing the mysterious man dodge so effortlessly, Blue B's assault became even more ferocious.
Fists, feet, elbows, knees—every strike was wrapped in crackling lightning.
Yet in the face of such a violent onslaught, Renya remained calm and unhurried.
"If this is all the strength you have, then you can prepare to accept death."
Renya seized an opening, and the three tomoe in his eyes suddenly spun.
A powerful genjutsu invaded Blue B's brain, causing him to freeze in place for an instant, though he quickly broke free from it.
But that brief lapse was more than enough for an expert like Renya.
Renya gave Blue B no chance.
At the moment the genjutsu restrained his opponent, the pattern in Renya's eyes evolved into the Mangekyō Sharingan, a line of bloody tears slowly flowing down from his left eye.
"Inka!"
A genjutsu even more powerful and domineering than before invaded Blue B's mind.
"AAAHHH—"
The lightning around his body dissipated as he dropped to his knees, clutching his head in agony.
Seeing this, Renya struck the back of his neck with a knife-hand.
Blue B's scream abruptly stopped, his body pitching forward as he collapsed to the ground, falling unconscious.
