Then, it lay sprawled on the ground like a discarded ragdoll.
Whoosh!
A figure flashed, appearing before Shukaku and poking it dismissively with a foot. "Are you dead yet? If not, get up!"
"How dare he look down on me so much?"
Shukaku roared in anger, rising to its feet and gathering chakra to form a Tailed Beast Ball, which it launched at Kouki.
"Oh, so you're getting serious? Even if you are, you're still a small fry!"
Kouki scoffed dismissively, his body blurring before vanishing completely.
Along with him, the Tailed Beast Ball that Shukaku had just fired also disappeared.
Boom!
Just as Shukaku was feeling confused, the Tailed Beast Ball it had launched landed directly on him.
The poor beast, having barely caught its breath after being sent flying, was sent flying once more.
"What happened? What did you do?"
Shukaku, having tumbled across the ground for quite some time, roared at Kouki, its voice filled with anger and confusion.
"It's just a simple ninjutsu. Nothing to brag about."
Kouki waved his hand dismissively.
In that critical moment, Kouki had used Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport the Tailed Beast Ball back to Shukaku.
"You're definitely not ordinary. You've got some skill, but if you think you can make me submit with that, you're dreaming!"
Shukaku scoffed coldly.
"That's good, that's good. The more you resist, the more enjoyment I get from taming a pet. If you submitted easily, it wouldn't be any fun."
Kouki said with amusement. "Now, let's begin our delightful performance of stylishly beating a bear!"
Stylish beating a bear?
It took Shukaku a moment to realize that the "bear" Kouki was referring to was probably… possibly… it?
The insult was unbearable!
It was clearly a tanuki, not a bear!
"First move: let's give you a taste of barbecue."
Kouki said casually, his Sharingan spinning as he used Amaterasu on Shukaku.
Black flames erupted on one of Shukaku's arms, and the beast screamed in agony, rolling on the ground. No matter how hard it tried to suppress the flames with its chakra, it was useless.
The black flames seemed to grow stronger and more intense.
"What… what kind of flames are these?!"
Shukaku's voice held a hint of panic.
"Unless you cut off your arm, it's useless. You'll be burned to ashes," Kouki said casually, watching the spectacle with amusement.
"You bastard…"
Shukaku roared angrily. Severing an arm was not difficult; it would simply regenerate.
But it was a humiliation.
However, faced with the overwhelming power of Amaterasu, Shukaku ultimately chose the option it least desired, severing its burning arm.
"Next… second move…"
Just as Shukaku severed its arm, it heard that voice again. Kouki suddenly vanished.
At the same time, a powerful force struck it.
Shukaku was sent flying once more.
Kouki, having opened the Sixth Gate of the Eight Gates, was completely overwhelming the weakened version of Shukaku.
Bang!
Shukaku hadn't even landed before it was struck by another powerful force.
Shukaku became a ball, kicked around by Kouki in the air. After countless kicks, Kouki stomped it into the ground.
The pitiful Shukaku was completely exhausted.
"Who… who are you?"
Shukaku, gasping for breath, glared at Kouki.
Kouki's Sharingan spun, and chakra surged from his body, forming the Susanoo.
Kouki then controlled the Susanoo to pick up Shukaku like a pet, holding it in front of his face.
—The previous methods hadn't been enough to intimidate Shukaku. Susanoo, a truly godlike power, would bring the greatest shock.
The Susanoo's image was based on the legendary storm god Susano-o no Mikoto.
As soon as the Susanoo appeared, Shukaku began to tremble, a painful memory flashing through its mind.
"How can this be? You're even stronger than that man!"
Shukaku's voice was weak and filled with despair.
That man had only been terrifying because of his eyes, but this individual could overwhelm it even without them.
"That man? Are you talking about Madara Uchiha?"
Kouki asked with interest. Did the system's reward also include the memories of the tailed beasts from this world?
It seemed that the joint capture of the nine tailed beasts by Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha during the Warring States Period had left a lasting impression on them.
"Don't mention that name in front of me!" Shukaku said, its face dark with anger.
"Don't look so upset. It's not like I'm going to do anything to you. I'm not Madara Uchiha!"
