The Two-Tails Jinchūriki looked arrogantly at the tiny person before her. "Die."
She directly gathered Tailed Beast chakra and spat out a blue fireball as large as a small mountain, wanting to burn Uchiha Ryōsuke to ashes.
When Uchiha Ryōsuke saw her blue fireball, he immediately opted to counter it head-on.
He formed hand seals, simultaneously kneaded chakra and brought it to his mouth, and spat out a fireball that was also comparable to a small mountain.
"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu."
Ryōsuke, having used this jutsu, was a bit surprised himself. He hadn't expected his own Fireball Jutsu to be so powerful.
It was truly a bit unexpected. Perhaps it was related to his increased chakra, or perhaps it was related to the endless chakra surging in his body after opening the Eight Inner Gates.
This scene galvanized the members of the Uchiha Clan. 'What a fierce Fireball Jutsu! He truly is one of our Uchiha Clan.'
Compared to Ryōsuke's powerful taijutsu, it was the Fire Style ninjutsu that impressed them more. Their Uchiha Clan was renowned in the ninja world for its Fire Style.
At this moment, the giant blue fireball and the orange fireball collided directly in mid-air, producing a violent explosion. Flames scattered everywhere, forming a powerful shockwave.
Even Yugito was quite astonished to see this.
'I can only release a Tailed Beast-level fireball like that in my full Tailed Beast transformation. I hadn't expected the opponent to also have such an ability.'
Just then, a voice resounded in her mind. "Yugito, be careful. This guy is a bit strong."
It was the voice of Matatabi, the Two-Tails Tailed Beast, inside her.
Yugito, of course, knew the opponent was strong; otherwise, she wouldn't have activated her full Tailed Beast transformation mode right away.
'This state puts a very large burden on the body. I have to finish him off quickly.'
She immediately moved on all fours, rushing towards Uchiha Ryōsuke at extreme speed, and swung her giant front paw at him.
Ryōsuke leaped back, dodging her attack. The ground where he had just been standing was gouged out, leaving a huge, deep crater.
A trace of surprise couldn't help but appear on his face.
'Logically, after her full Tailed Beast transformation, her body has become extremely enormous. Her movement speed should have slowed down.'
'But in reality, not only did her speed not decrease, it actually became even faster. Her strength is even countless times greater.'
The Two-Tails Yugito was slightly surprised that the opponent could still dodge her attack. At the same time, she used both claws to swipe at him.
Ryōsuke's current strength was enough to clash head-on with her attacks.
But when the opponent's giant claw attacked, he dodged subconsciously.
'After all, I'm fighting a terrifying giant beast right now.'
'Although I've only opened four gates, my powerful physical attributes make me comparable to a peak Might Guy with all five of the Eight Inner Gates open.'
'Logically speaking, I should be able to take on a weaker Tailed Beast. I just haven't had a benchmark until now.'
After firming his resolve, he decided to give it a try.
'Because with my current physical toughness and recovery ability, even if I get injured, it probably wouldn't be very serious.'
Before the opponent swung its giant claw again, Ryōsuke did not choose to dodge this time but swung his fist and blocked it head-on, entering a stalemate with her.
This result left Yugito Nii extremely shocked.
'I want to use even greater strength to break through his defense.'
'But with my current giant beast strength, I'm actually unable to break his defense.'
This result made Yugito Nii, inside the Tailed Beast, exclaim. "How is this possible?"
'How can human strength possibly compare to my current full Tailed Beast transformation?'
'What on earth is that taijutsu he's using?'
'His strength clearly wasn't that great just now. I even felt that my full Tailed Beast transformation should be able to crush him.'
At this moment, Ryōsuke also became bold.
'It seems this giant beast before me is just so-so, nothing special.'
'Or maybe I underestimated myself. After all, it's just the Two-Tails.'
His face became even more composed and calm. "Next, let me play with you properly."
The Two-Tails Yugito was instantly enraged. "Damn you! Don't be so arrogant! I don't believe a mortal body can contend with a Tailed Beast."
"Why don't we try and find out?"
This time, Ryōsuke took the initiative to attack. Using his speed advantage, he instantly appeared at the opponent's side and slammed his fist down onto her giant body.
This made the giant Tailed Beast's body tilt over directly.
The Two-Tails Jinchūriki was furious.
'Damn it, I can't keep up with his speed.'
'Luckily, I'm in my full Tailed Beast transformation. Otherwise, that one blow would have been enough to severely injure me.'
'But as long as I can grab his puny body just once, with the Tailed Beast's destructive power, it's enough to inflict heavy damage on his body.'
She endured his attack and swung her giant claw, grabbing at Uchiha Ryōsuke.
In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains swayed, as if an earthquake was happening.
At this moment, the Hyūga and Uchiha clansmen were all dumbfounded.
'Is such a battle really something humans can do?'
'This is simply a man-versus-beast war. A human, relying on his own body, can actually contend with a giant Tailed Beast to this extent.'
This style of combat was a real eye-opener for them.
The Hyūga Clan members were extremely envious.
'The Uchiha Clan actually produced someone with the combat power to rival a Tailed Beast, and he's so young. His future achievements are unimaginable.'
Uchiha Yatsushiro was astonished that Ryōsuke's combat power was comparable to Tailed Beast-level combat power.
At this moment, he felt that Uchiha Ryōsuke was the absolute top genius of the Uchiha Clan. Before, the top genius was Uchiha Shisui, but even Shisui couldn't possibly possess such combat power.
'There is hope for victory in this war.'
