"Wait... what kind of jutsu should I use in this battle?"
Genya looked up at the massive hand slowly descending, his eyes narrowing.
What jutsu should he use?
"I’ve got it... Wood Release!" Genya’s eyes snapped open as he stared at the Eight-Tails’ massive hand falling toward him.
The hand rose!
Vines shot up from beneath Genya, intertwining as they surged into the sky, forming a colossal hand that clashed with the Eight-Tails’ massive palm.
Boom~
In an instant, the two giant hands collided. The vine hand collapsed under the impact, and the Eight-Tails staggered.
Its enormous body wobbled twice!
Huh?
Everyone froze at the sight.
Wood Release!
Seeing Genya use Wood Release, Kurenai’s red pupils widened again.
How could Genya have Wood Release?
In her mory, only two people in the ninja world could use Wood Release: Yamato from Konoha and Wood Ox from the Exploding Heaven organization.
She had once seen Wood Ox use it herself—the sight of a towering tree rising from the ground remained vivid in her mind.
And now, soone else has surpassed her expectations. Genya has beco another top-tier Wood Release ninja!
Wait... could Wood Ox actually be Genya?
A thought flashed through Kurenai’s mind, but she imdiately shook her head. Impossible. Neither the size nor the timing matched.
As she pondered, she rembered that Genya’s mother was from the Senju clan. It made sense that he could use Wood Release.
But in Konoha, there were still many ordinary Senju clan mbers, yet not a single one had awakened Wood Release again. Even Lady Tsunade hadn’t!
Genya was hiding too much. She couldn’t see through him.
At that mont, Kurenai recalled Kakashi’s words. Genya was special. At the ti, she had only thought that Genya might be slightly superior in taijutsu.
Now, it seed there was more aning behind Kakashi’s words.
Kakashi had long noticed Genya’s extraordinary nature, but so things could not be spoken outright.
"Wood Release."
Hideki stared at the massive Wood Release hand with excitent on his face.
After all his effort to steal the First Hokage’s cells from Konoha, wasn’t it all for Wood Release?
And now, in front of him, was a living Wood Release ninja. He had to study him.
He hadn’t expected Uchiha Genya to not inherit the Sharingan from the Uchiha clan, but instead inherit Wood Release from his Senju mother!
Ha ha.
Interesting.
Studying a ninja who could wield Wood Release was far better than studying the First Hokage’s cells. Progress would even be faster.
Lord Dodai would definitely love this unexpected discovery.
Thinking this, Hideki shouted to Killer B, "Keep this one alive too! His Wood Release is crucial for Lord Dodai’s research!"
If Genya weren’t a Wood Release ninja, maybe he would have let him go. But now, there was no way he could be allowed to leave!
A Wood Release ninja’s growth potential surpassed all other ninjas. If Genya grew strong and took revenge on the Land of Lightning, it would be terrifying.
He must not be allowed to leave!
"Damn it. How do you expect to keep him alive?" Killer B muttered, speechless, his eyelids twitching as he looked at Hideki’s greedy gaze.
Although it was just a simple exchange, he already realized how terrifying Genya was.
Taking down Genya?
That was probably impossible.
"Genya..."
"Genya-kun!"
At this mont, Hinata and Shino also reacted. Their eyes were drawn to Genya, who was not far away, his own eyes shining with intensity.
In Hinata’s eyes, there was admiration. In Shino’s, seriousness. Genya was incredibly strong, unbelievably strong!
"Kid, you’re up next!" Killer B moved his massive Eight-Tails body and launched another attack at Genya.
"In that case, let the battle begin!" Genya whispered softly, black flas sparking from his eyes and starting to spread outward.
However...
Most of the black flas were attracted to the Eight-Tails’ chakra, converging and leaping toward it like bone-eating maggots.
They were devouring the Eight-Tails’ chakra relentlessly!
Uh... black flas?
Kurenai watched as a streak of black fla spread onto her, feeling it absorb the chakra from her body.
At this mont, her expression was beyond words.
Years ago, a dwarf had used black flas capable of devouring chakra to kill several Konoha ninja. And now Genya could do the sa!
Wait, a dwarf?
By age comparison, Genya back then would have been just a child—almost the sa age as that Konoha assassin!
And that person specifically targeted the Sarutobi clan and the Shimura clan, which was very strange.
Could it be that Genya was really one of the Atsukara mbers back then—the Konoha assassin?
In just a few breaths, Kurenai had been shocked countless tis: by Genya’s strength, his Wood Release, and the black flas that could devour chakra.
It seed that even Kakashi had suffered a crushing defeat against that Konoha assassin.
Considering Kakashi’s special treatnt of Genya, everything in her heart was becoming clear.
Genya was the Konoha assassin back then!
Even as a child, Genya already possessed the strength of a Jonin. So what about now?
Thinking this, Kurenai realized that Genya could get them out of here safely.
"This Black Fla is different. It can continuously absorb our chakra!" Just as Killer B prepared to attack, he suddenly heard the voice of the Eight-Tails, Gyuki!
Killer B nodded. "I understand. That ans we need to end this quickly!"
He tried to push the Black Fla away, but it clung like a bone-eating worm. There was no escape—so they had to finish it fast.
"Agreed, end it quickly!" Gyuki nodded seriously.
Deciding on this, the figure wrapped in Black Fla lunged at Genya again.
"Wood Release..." Genya narrowed his eyes. Vines twisted and ford a wooden soldier, facing off against the Eight-Tails!
Genya stood back, controlling it as if it were a puppet.
He even took a mont to check Kurenai’s injuries and had Hinata and Shino return behind him for safety.
During this, Hideki and Darui watched silently, afraid to make a move.
A single wooden soldier holding off Killer B was proof—they were no match for Genya.
The wooden soldier’s fight against the Eight-Tails was nearly equal, but as the battle continued, Killer B realized that Genya wasn’t even fighting seriously!
He was completely enraged.
Chakra surged wildly as he grabbed the wooden soldier’s arms, yanking them off with all his strength.
He then wrapped it with his tail, his white eyes locking onto Genya.
Filled with rage!
"You bastard! How dare you underestimate ! You’ll pay for this!" Killer B’s voice ca through Gyuki’s mouth, and the beast slowly opened its jaws.
Chakra condensed rapidly inside, forming a massive sphere—the Tailed Beast Ball!
Pff—
The Eight-Tails released the sphere, and it shot toward Genya like a terrifying pressure bomb!
In the blink of an eye, it reached right in front of him.
