At this moment, the Cloud Thunder Gorge was in complete chaos. The eighth tailed beast with its crimson eyes was going on a rampage.

In the distance, a female ninja was watching the scene with a smile on her face.

"Tailed beasts... Jinchuriki... Heh heh..."

"Just like what Chiyama-kun said, a jinchuriki who can't control the tailed beast is nothing to fear."

"With a little trickery, we can play with them at will."

"However, Chiyama-kun, you were wrong about one thing. Tailed beasts are uncontrollable. But if we use the tailed - beast cells to create something, the replicas will be completely controllable."

This person was none other than Orochimaru, who had infiltrated the Cloud Hidden Village in disguise.

And the rampaging eighth tailed beast in front of him was his masterpiece.

The ninjas led by the Third Raikage were trying to subdue the rampaging eighth tailed beast. The intensity of the battle made Orochimaru can't help secretly marveling.

"Only by having controllable Strength in our own hands can we achieve success!"

"Chiyama-kun, just wait. Maybe, we can also have the power of the tailed beast!"

...

Of course, Chiyama Gekko, who was far away in the Land of Grass, had no idea what was happening in the Cloud Hidden Village.

He was now in a gambling den.

Feeling the excitement of the people around him who were engrossed in gambling.

"Place your bets and don't change them!"

As the croupier gave the order, everyone quickly placed their bets.

"Chiyama kid, what are we doing here? All this yelling and noise is so dull."

Chiyama Gekko ignored Chōmei's voice and walked over to the croupier on his own. He squatted down and took out the fake money he had prepared using the Shape - Shifting Jutsu from his pocket.

In a split second, he had completed a round of substitution.

"Done."

What's the greatest advantage of the Touton? Isn't it that others can't detect it?

It's not easy to do this in his own ninja village because they're all his own people.

The Land of Grass? It's about to become a battlefield. What's the use of keeping the money? It's better to contribute it.

After stealing the money, Chiyama Gekko ran to a distant tree to count it.

"So boring. Chiyama kid, why are you so obsessed with these pieces of paper?"

Chōmei watched Chiyama Gekko counting the money with boredom.

"Chōmei, you don't understand. These aren't just pieces of paper. They're ryo."

"You need this stuff to live."

"Not bad, 400,000 ryo. That'll last me for a while."

Of course, stealing this money wasn't just for the thrill. It was all for the attributes.

He was already prepared to collect the attributes. Once the people in the gambling den realized that their money had turned into leaves, the attributes would be credited to his account.

Although it might not contribute much in terms of attributes, every little bit counts!

He had been in the Land of Grass for a week. He had seen quite a few ninjas from the Iwagakure, but he hadn't seen any jinchuriki.

Nor had he found the temporary base of the Iwagakure.

But he wasn't in a hurry at all. He was looking while having fun.

The 50,000 ryo given to him by Hiruzen Sarutobi had long been spent.

In order to have ryo to spend and to do some good deeds at the same time, he set his sights on the various gambling houses in the Land of Grass.

Well, his first attempt had netted him 400,000 ryo. How delightful.

"Hmm? What's that?"

Suddenly, Chiyama Gekko felt a tremor from afar, and then a puff of white smoke appeared in the sky.

"Chiyama!Kokuō's Boil Release Kokuō's Boil Release is that!"

"Hurry up! The jinchuriki of Kokuō must be over there!"

"Hey? No, why aren't you moving! Get a move on! Chiyama!"

Chōmei's voice was a bit excited, urging Chiyama Gekko to go there quickly.

"Tsk, Chōmei, can you be any more fake?"

"You're urging me to go there just to watch the show, right?"

Chōmei, whose thoughts had been exposed, didn't feel there was anything wrong at all. He was so bored that it would be great if he could watch a show.

"Alright, let's go. After all, the mission is to investigate this jinchuriki."

"Let me see what this jinchuriki is like."

In the forest in the distance, a small - scale battle had just ended.

Han, the jinchuriki of Kokuō, grabbed a ninja by the neck with one hand and lifted him high into the air.

"Humph, what are the ninja from Cloud Hidden Village doing in the Land of Grass?"

"Aren't you guys up to some tricks in the Land of Hot Water? What? Do you want a share in the Land of Grass?"

Just as the ninja from Cloud Hidden Village whose neck was pinched was about to speak, he heard...

"Crunch!"

With great Strength, Han directly crushed the neck of this ninja from Cloud Hidden Village.

"Speak faster next life. I'm a hot - tempered guy."

He casually threw the body aside and took a deep breath, suppressing the uneasiness in his heart.

It seemed that he didn't have the ability to fully suppress the tailed beast as he claimed.

"All of you, strengthen the patrol of the Land of Grass. If you find any ninja from Cloud Hidden Village, kill them without mercy!"

At his order, the surrounding ninja from Iwagakure immediately dispersed.

This scene happened to be seen by Chiyama Gekko who had just arrived.

"Wow, such great Strength! I feel like I'm seeing Tsunade - sama..."

As is well - known, Tsunade's Strange Power was unparalleled in the world. However, at present, she wasn't invincible. At least the Strength of this guy in front could rival that of Tsunade.

"Really? Is there actually someone who can match Kokuō in terms of Strength? Are you kidding me, Chiyama kid?"

"Why would I lie to you? What do you think, you Senju clan guy?"

Hearing about the Senju clan, Chōmei immediately fell silent. Back then, the nine of them had been completely beaten up by a human.

That human was called Chishima...

He still clearly remembered that the guy had made a wooden dummy and grabbed his tail, using him like a kite...

No, he couldn't recall it. It's all tears when I think about it! It was such a miserable experience!

Meanwhile, Chiyama Gekko carefully observed the jinchuriki in front of him.

Han, an elite ninja from Iwagakure, had unfathomable Strength and was definitely a powerful warrior.

At this moment, the state of this jinchuriki was very unstable. Maybe there was a chance to take him down.

Looking at the armor on Han's body, he showed a sly smile.

"Chōmei, look at the armor on him."

"Huh? What's so interesting about the armor? It looks so ugly with all those circles."

"Look closely. Don't you notice anything?"

"Look closely? Let me see... Hmm? Hmm??? There are holes!"

Chiyama Gekko laughed, smiling very brightly.

Chōmei didn't understand at first, but after being influenced by Chiyama Gekko for some time, his insect brain became smarter.

Upon seeing the holes in the armor, he suddenly got the idea!

"Ahahaha, Chiyama, you're such a sneaky one!"

"How about phosphorus powder? I guarantee it can block all those exhaust holes!"

Chiyama Gekko nodded heavily.

"Blocking them isn't enough. Chōmei, does your phosphorus powder have a hallucinogenic effect?"

"I'm totally clueless about genjutsu, so I've got to rely on you."

Putting a jinchuriki under genjutsu is the most direct way to awaken the tailed beast within them.

If a jinchuriki is perfect, they can use tailed beast chakra to dispel the genjutsu. However, if they are not a perfect jinchuriki, entering the genjutsu means they'll directly face the risk of the tailed beast going berserk.

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Chiyama Gekko's idea coincides perfectly with Orochimaru's.

No wonder they can become master and disciple...
