Chapter 156 156: Sage Art – Tailed Beast Ultra-Spacetime Moonlight Gale Infinite Spiral Tailed Beast Bomb
Boom!
Another Tailed Beast Bomb crashed into the ocean, blasting up a column of water hundreds of meters high!
The searing heat boiled entire schools of fish alive, their bodies floating up white-eyed, the air faintly filled with the smell of cooked flesh.
Kyūsei breathed heavily as he stared at the figure opposite him.
As expected of a twenty-year-old Naruto counterpart…
Even if this guy wasn't as strong as Naruto himself, facing him was still unbelievably exhausting.
Since achieving Kurama Mode, this was the hardest battle Kyūsei had ever fought.
If only he had mastered Sage Mode…
Hm?
Sage Mode?
Kyūsei suddenly turned toward Kaoru .
"Kaoru , can you gather natural energy right now?"
If she could refine senjutsu chakra for him…
Maybe—
"I can."
Kaoru nodded without hesitation.
This kind of brutal, beast-like brawl wasn't her specialty.
She excelled in one-on-one combat, using Flying Thunder God to dominate with mobility.
But right now, both Kuramas were completely fired up. There was no room for finesse.
The moment she answered, orange eye shadow bloomed at the corners of her eyes.
Her azure pupils shifted into horizontal slits.
"Eh? That fast?"
Kyūsei blinked.
But there was no time to hesitate.
He intertwined his fingers with hers.
"Kaoru , lend me your senjutsu chakra."
"Okay."
She trusted him completely.
Kyūsei might be unreliable in daily life—
But in battle, he always came up with ridiculous yet brilliant ideas.
Just like combining Adamantine Chains with Flying Thunder God.
"One person… was like this…"
"Two people… are like this…"
"Why…"
"Why do you all keep trying to stop me…"
Menma's hoarse voice echoed through the Nine-Tails' jaws.
He remembered four years ago—
His own counterpart.
The one who made his skin crawl.
Because of him, Menma had been sealed inside Konoha's prison for four long years.
After finally exploiting Minato's stupid sense of family duty to escape—
After stealing the damaged Book of the Red Moon and fleeing to this world—
Now even the counterparts of his so-called parents were standing in his way.
All of them.
All of them.
"ALL OF YOU JUST DIE!!!"
The Nine-Tails threw its head back and roared!
A shockwave exploded outward, sweeping across nearly thirty kilometers of ocean!
Terrifying chakra gathered in its mouth.
That malice—
That hatred—
Condensed into the next attack.
"Get ready, Kaoru ! Kurama!"
"Mm!"
"Let's crush him!"
Golden chakra surged around Kyūsei's Nine-Tails, rivaling Menma's in sheer magnitude.
Feeling the refined senjutsu chakra flowing into him from Kaoru —
Kyūsei poured it all into his next Tailed Beast Bomb.
He gripped Kaoru 's hand tightly.
They exchanged a glance.
Both smiled.
Kaoru transferred every last bit of her sage chakra into him and withdrew from Sage Mode.
Then she looked up at him with bright anticipation.
"Kyūsei, please don't speak next."
"Huh?"
He stared at her blankly.
"Please~~?"
She actually acted cute.
Kyūsei twitched.
He had a very bad feeling about this.
He sighed—and nodded.
At that moment—
Menma's fully formed Tailed Beast Ball was complete.
"You two!"
"Stop interfering with me!"
"DIE!!!"
He fired it without hesitation!
"Rebellious children require discipline!"
"I don't want to admit you're Naruto's counterpart—but it's an undeniable fact!"
"Receive the iron fist of parental love!"
Kyūsei and Kurama both felt their teeth ache.
The enemy's Tailed Beast Ball was already almost in their faces—
And she was still doing this?!
"Sage Art—Tailed Beast Ultra-Spacetime Moonlight Gale Infinite Spiral Tailed Beast Bomb!!!"
With Kaoru 's grand declaration—
Kurama unleashed the senjutsu-infused Tailed Beast Bomb!
The two massive spheres collided above the ocean.
Light erupted.
Energy detonated like a nuclear explosion.
The sea was ripped apart.
Water howled skyward.
A hundred-meter tsunami exploded outward from the collision point.
Hurricane-force winds tore across the ocean.
The sheer evaporation and displacement caused the sea level to drop dozens of meters in an instant.
Countless marine creatures perished.
The shockwave blasted Kurama into the ocean depths.
Kyūsei even saw a hundred-meter blue whale hurled into the sky—
Before vanishing in the blinding light.
He was stunned.
But also relieved they had moved to deep waters.
If this had happened near shore—
The casualties would've been unimaginable.
Menma, meanwhile, was blasted dozens of kilometers away.
His Tailed Beast Mode shattered.
He skipped helplessly across the ocean surface, leaving a trail of splashes.
"One after another!"
"One after another!"
"JUST DIE!!!"
Menma roared and tried to rise again—
But two figures were already in front of him.
"Just behave already, you brat!"
Kyūsei's fist smashed forward!
"Don't act so self-righteous!"
Menma counterpunched!
"Talking like that to your parents' counterparts?"
"Looks like you've been stuck in your rebellious phase way too long!"
Kaoru followed up instantly.
She ducked low and delivered a brutal kick to his side!
Menma was sent flying!
Kyūsei leapt after him and drove a crushing elbow toward him midair.
Menma barely stabilized himself and dodged—
But Kaoru gave him no room.
She stepped off Kyūsei's knee—
Flashed like lightning—
And drove a clean punch straight into Menma's face!
He was blasted backward again!
"How many times have you told your parents to die?!"
"If Kushina and Minato couldn't discipline you—"
"Then we will!"
Her beautiful brows were tightly furrowed, eyes sharp as blades.
"You…"
"You people…"
"Can't you just mind your own business and go—Wah!"
Before he could finish—
Two fists wrapped in blazing chakra slammed into his abdomen simultaneously.
The impact echoed across the shattered sea.
