On the devasted street, Uchiha Tsukihi swiftly moved from one point to the other, her glowing Katana dancing in her hands, cutting and severing tentacles that were trying to grope her.
At this time, Shinno has completely liberated Moryo, or better yet, Artificial Bijuu Moryo. Therefore, his size was gigantic. Shinno's entire body was covered in muddy-purple chakra, that seemed to be extremely corrosive in nature.
And this muddy-chakra seemed to also have its own consciousness as it was hunting the unlucky and weak bystanders on its own.
Tsukihi has repeatedly confirmed this, as she saw many Konoha Shinobi who were caught off guard and swallowed were later puked out in the form of an unrecognizable mass of rotten flesh.
"Everyone, retreat!" – Tsukihi shouted while dodging one of the several heads of Moryo that tried to eat her.
The Genins or Chunins present here are of no use, even if they have the will to fight this monster without a care for their lives and sacrifice it if necessary, it is of no point. Their attacks are not doing any damage to the enemy, only increasing the number of meaningless casualties. So, it is better that they retreat and let the ones who have the capabilities do their job.
Listening to the shout of the Uchiha Kunoichi, the ninjas around hesitated a little, but they also understood that their presence is not doing anything and chose to retreat one-after-another. As they have long realized that with the level of their abilities it is impossible to participate in the battles of such level.
Seeing that they started to retreat, Tsukihi sighed in relief.
Fortunately, the resident villagers of this block have already evacuated, and she has also led Shinno outside the Hyuga territory.
Whoosh…!
Using the Body Flicker Technique again Tsukihi avoided another one of Moryo's attacks and landed on one of the semi-collapsed walls, currently, she was panting for breath, and tried to analyze the methods she can use to take down the enemy.
Since Shinno has completely liberated Moryo, so Sandaime must have noticed Moryo raging in the village, and he would have no choice but to leave whatever he was doing and come here to deal with him. Therefore, Tsukihi knows that as long as Shinno is stalled for a while longer, backup would arrive and she would be able to retreat from here.
While Tsukihi pondered, one of Moryo's dragon heads approached her and spoke arrogantly, "Uchiha Tsukihi, do you see this? This is my power, superior to you Uchiha! Hahaha!!!"
Hearing Shinno's voice, Tsukihi's eyes shrank, and she muttered, "How did he completely dominate Moryo's consciousness? Was it because of the Chimera Jutsu?"
For a Jinchuriki, liberating the Bijuu means losing oneself.
Therefore, only perfect Jinchuriki who have reached a deeper level of understanding with their Bijuu sealed within them can liberate Bijuu without any worry.
Other's all are not capable of this without losing their consciousness, so they would rarely resort to such a measure.
"Oh, I remember, there is one more trick!" – Shinno said while laughing loudly, and immediately the corrosive chakra on Moryo's body skyrocketed.
Whiish… Whiish… Whiish… Whiish…
As the chakra on Moryo's body soared, the surrounding earth and stones suddenly came to life and soon took the shape of stone soldiers.
"Shit… shit… shit… shit!" – Tsukihi suddenly panicked as soon as she saw those soldiers of the Ghost army, and quickly weaved the hand signs, "Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"
Instantly, a Dragon-shaped fireball that covered a large part of the sky rushed towards Moryo.
But as soon as the dragon-shaped fireball arrived closer to Moryo's body, the corrosive muddy-purple chakra on his body started corroding the Fire Style Jutsu, and within just a few short breaths the Jutsu disappeared.
"Damn it!" – Tsukihi muttered in frustration.
From this scene just now, Tsukihi discovered that in addition to hunting bystanders and unlucky individuals, this corrosive chakra can also act as a protective covering to protect Moryo's inner body and Shinno within it.
The number of attacks Tsukihi can use is limited because of the absence of Ryuumyaku.
What's more, to deal with Bijuu class monsters, ordinary ninjutsu attacks are of no use, unless you are Uchiha Madara, who can make any random B-Class ninjutsu and display its power as strong as or probably even stronger than S-Class attacks.
"I don't have any good way to deal with so many Stone Soldiers at once, Sandaime will have to order his shinobi to take care of them." – muttered Tsukihi with a gloomy look.
Being aware of what the Ghost Army is capable of, Tsukihi understands that cutting off the main chakra source is the only effective method to get rid of these Stone Soldiers.
There is no other effective method to stop them, and they might even cause large-scale damage to the village, even the civilians and other shinobi will suffer under the siege of the Ghost Army.
"Huh, I guess I will have to accelerate the battle to reduce the damage and casualties!" – Making up her mind, Tsukihi put back the Katana inside the sheath strapped around her waist and slowly walked towards the head of Moryo.
Shinno seemed to be surprised by Uchiha Tsukihi's sudden actions, and spoke with a smile, "Huh, what is this am I seeing? In the face of absolute strength, have you finally decided to give up, bow down and beg me to spare you? Is that it?"
Tsukihi shook her head and said, "No, I am already bored of this pathetic fight, so I decided to get rid of you sooner rather than later!"
"YOU HATEFUL UCHIHA BITCH, YOU THINK YOU CAN STOP ME!? I WILL KILL YOU, SWALLOW YOU AND THEN DESTROY THIS WHOLE VILLAGE" – Shinno roared in anger. This time, all the dragon heads of Moryo cursed at the same time, so the sound spread all over the village. Making every Konoha villager and shinobi look at each other in amazement and surprise. It was only now that they realize that the person who was openly resisting and suppressing the monster from rampaging all over the village is a Kunoichi of the Uchiha Clan.
After the roar, Shinno ignored everything, and directly drove all the heads of Moryo towards Uchiha Tsukihi who stood completely defenseless.
Looking at the wide-open jaw with countless large teeth, Tsukihi smirked, and the Sharingan within her eye changed into the complex pattern of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
BOOM… SMASH…
Chomp... SWALLOW!
To those watching from a distance, it seemed as if the Uchiha Kunoichi enraged the monster and was instantly swallowed.
While Shinno on the other hand laughed loudly, after realizing that he had successfully swallowed the damn Uchiha Tsukihi, "So what if you are an Uchiha? So, what if you have the Sharingan? At the end of the day, it's all the same after being swallowed by me, will just turn into my pre-... hahahahahahaha…. Stop that… hahahaha… I said stop that… hahaha!!!" But suddenly his voice came to a halt, and he suddenly felt that something was tickling him from within his stomach.
Clutching his stomach, Moryo started to roll madly in laughter.
All the onlookers had their eyes turn into buttons in shock, just a moment ago they felt sorry and sad for the death of the brave Uchiha Kunoichi, and now they don't even know what to make out of the sudden turn of event, but they did feel pity for this poor monster to have to go through such a horrible experience.
"Hahaha… Ahhhhh…... Hot… hot… hot… it burns... it burns… Ahhh!!!" – And suddenly the monster's laughter turned into a terrible cry for pain.
At this time, Uchiha Tsukihi who was swallowed by Moryo was under the protection of the basic ribcage Susanoo.
According to her plan, the moment she was swallowed, she activated the Susanoo to protect herself from turning into rotten meat, but because of the lack of Ryuumyaku, she only used the first stage Susanoo.
Looking at her surroundings, Tsukihi smirked, "Now you will understand that not everything you swallow will become the same in the end!"
Then began the process of taking down Moryo, started with tickling the insides, then using the golden flames of Susanoo to burn the insides of Moryo's body.
Although, the 'Golden flames' of her Susanoo armor are not as strong as Itachi's infamous 'Amaterasu' they are also a force on their own. With the best ability of the Golden Flames being able to burn Chakra.
So even it is a Bijuu, it doesn't have many ways to protect itself from these 'Golden Flames'
And now that these Golden Flames have been lit within the stomach of Moryo, Tsukihi can be sure that Moryo won't be eating anything in the future.
