Chapter 185: Kotoamatsukami didn't work...
The last question struck deep, like a blade aimed at the heart. The two high-ranking advisors, who had been wavering on whether to side with Danzo, suddenly went pale. They quickly moved closer to Jiraiya, distancing themselves from Danzo. Even though nothing had been confirmed yet, just the suspicion was enough to make them want no part in it.
Danzo didn't answer Naruto's question. Instead, he formed a hand seal and slammed his hand onto the ground.
"Summoning Jutsu."
A cloud of white smoke billowed up, and a massive creature emerged. It had the body of a bull, the claws of a tiger, and the head of an elephant covered in brown fur.
"A Baku," Nine-Tails recognized it immediately. "A creature said to feed on nightmares."
"Leave it to me," Nine-Tails said, leaping toward the Baku. With one powerful strike, he took it down. The Baku vanished in a puff of smoke almost as soon as it appeared. Despite being one of the strongest summoning beasts outside the Three Great Sage Regions, it was no match for the power of a tailed beast.
Naruto reached out to grab Danzo, but before he could, the Baku was gone, and Danzo was moving again.
Naruto killed Danzo three more times, each time using a different method—once with a rarely-used ninjutsu, once with kidō that destroyed Danzo's soul, and the last time by physically tearing out Danzo's heart. Yet each time, Danzo stood back up, completely unscathed.
Naruto stared at his empty hand, frowning.
