The Fourth Raikage gritted his teeth, his eyes turning blood red from excessive anger.
“You bastard!”
Killer B was also very resentful. The Third Raikage was his foster father. and he was also very good to him. Killer B couldn’t tolerate Uzumaki Shin’s behavior.
Turning someone’s father into a puppet was despicable, but did Shinobi even care about morality?
Compared to Tobirama Senju’s Edo Tensei, which manipulated even the souls of the dead, this was relatively tame. After all, The Edo Tensei didn’t even spare the soul, making it so you couldn’t even have peace after death.
“Uzumaki Shin, you better return my father’s body, or I’ll kill you!” the Fourth Raikage said, suppressing the anger in his heart.
“Return it? Sure. Come and get it.”
Shin appeared atop a nearby tree. Shin had placed a Flying Thunder God mark on the puppet, making teleportation easy.
Though he could see and hear through the puppet, he preferred observing in person.
Although he could also know everything that happened through the Third Raikage’s perspective, Shin still felt that it was more comfortable to see it in person.
Seeing Shin appear, the Fourth Raikage couldn’t help but take a few steps back.
“You’re afraid of me, yet you threaten to kill me? How amusing.”
Shin’s mockery fueled A’s rage and embarrassment. Why was he afraid of his Father’s Killer?
“Brother, let’s retrieve Father’s body,” Killer B said.
A nodded and rushed towards the puppet, intending to sever the chakra strings.
He knew puppeteers controlled their puppets with chakra strings, so severing them was the most effective counter. However, he found no strings.
While he was momentarily stunned, the puppet punched him, sending him flying like a cannonball.
“Brother!”
Killer B immediately caught the Fourth Raikage, but he was also smashed away by the Fourth Raikage’s body, acting as a meat shield.
Puh!
The Fourth Raikage spat out a mouthful of blood, his chest caved in, and the imprint of a fist could be seen.
“Under my control, the Third Raikage can unleash power far beyond his lifetime.”
Shin said to the Fourth Raikage calmly.
When a person is alive, because of the body’s protective mechanism, they can’t unleash their power by 100%—because that would hurt themselves.
But now, as a corpse, did it still need to be afraid of damage to itself?
The puppet’s punch could even send a Tailed Beast flying.
If not for A’s [Lightning Release Chakra Mode]—he would have died now.
“That bastard!” Killer B cursed.
“B, hurry up and take your brother away. You’re no match for him,” The Eight-Tails’s voice rang in Killer B’s heart.
The Eight-Tails could observe the outside situation through Killer B’s eyes. When he saw Shin, Eight-Tails was almost scared to death.
“You’re the Eight-Tails. Why are you scared?”
Killer B couldn’t understand The Eight-Tails’s fear.
‘If you’d been beaten up by him, you’d be scared too.’
The Eight-Tails felt its fear was justified. Shin could control it with a glance—what could it do?
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM!
The Third Raikage unleashed [Lightning Release Chakra Mode], and then rushed towards A and Killer B at high speed.
“Brother, are you okay?” Killer B asked worriedly, seeing A spitting blood.
“You’re not going to die, are you?”
“Shut up! Get out of the way!” A shoved B aside and dodged.
Because of his quick reflexes, he avoided a direct hit, but the ground where the puppet’s fist landed was pulverized, leaving a scorched crater.
“You two better get serious, or you’ll die,” Shin warned them through the puppet.
“Brother, let’s attack Uzumaki Shin!” Killer B yelled. He figured if they took out Shin, the puppet would be useless.
A nodded. Ignoring the pain in his chest, he charged towards Shin, enveloped in Lightning Chakra Mode, moving like a bolt of lightning.
Fast as he was, the puppet was faster. It intercepted A, unleashing another devastating punch. The previous blow, without Lightning Release Chakra Mode, had nearly killed A.
This one, amplified by lightning chakra, could be fatal.
“<Lightning Release – Elbow>” A yelled, bracing for impact, his elbow meeting the puppet’s fist head-on.
CRACK!
A’s face contorted in pain as his elbow shattered.
The puppet, unfazed, sent A flying. As a puppet, it felt no pain.
A stumbled back to Killer B’s side, cold sweat dripping from his brow.
“You can’t even handle a puppet, and you think you can fight me? Where do you get the nerve?” Shin said, jumping down from the tree.
“B—RUN!” A knew they couldn’t win, retrieving his father’s body was impossible.
“What? Leave you behind? No way!” B refused. Though often goofy, he was fiercely loyal. He wouldn’t abandon his brother.
“Hachibi-sama, I need your help.”
Although Eight-Tails was very afraid of Uzumaki Shin, at critical moments, he was still willing to lend Killer B power.
The Eight-Tails’s chakra appeared on his body—His abilities in all aspects were greatly enhanced. Speed and strength were greatly enhanced. This was the increase brought by Eight-Tails’ chakra.
“Interesting. I’ll use you two to test my puppet,” Shin said, eager to see its capabilities in a real fight.
As a puppet, the Third Raikage could access Shin’s Rinnegan, Tenseigan, and Sharingan abilities—but not his other Kekkei Genkai, like Ice Release, Wood Release, or Magnet Release.
