Chapter 80 - Chapter 82

The black-blue flaming cat watched the Raikage crash into the rubble. She smirked with satisfaction, even though her mouth didn't really animate properly to show her emotions.,

"This is for Yugito." Matatabi bent back in a way that only cat-like animals could. And chakra started to gather inside of her mouth. It all slowly came together in the form of a black ball that screamed death if you looked at it.

This little ball was the tailed beasts most powerful attack. Matatabi didn't put everything in it because there were still people inside the village and she didn't wanna kill them all.

She was finally done, and as the Raikage was using his hands as support to try and stand up, she released it on him. It traversed the ground with amazing speed and were upon him in almost a second.

*BOOM*

A massive explosion appeared and alarmed every single ninja in the village to the fighting going on over by the Raikage. Unfortunately for them, this was a fight on a level that most of them will never reach in their lives.

"Pretty ruthless. I never pictured you like someone to finish off your opponent." Dragon came up and sat down beside her with crossed legs.

"He's not dead. So there's that." Matatabi said and walked up and laid down on his lap.

"ooh, someone is getting a little comfortable." Dragon teased and pet her on the head.

"Something about your aura attracts me, and your lap is comfortable." She didn't even seem to know what embarrassment was or personal boundaries. The tailed beasts have lived for a long time and they look at emotions entirely different. To Matatabi, laying in Dragon's lap wasn't a strange act at all.

And it also helped that Dragon was powerful. Submitting to someone stronger willingly is not something rare in both beast or people.

And I don't wanna judge the Raikage whether he lives or dies. That's your job now, he is over there, barely alive." Matatabi said and pointed over in A's direction with her paw.

Dragon waved his hand and the winds immediately obeyed and grabbed a hold of the Raikage and carried him over to the two of them. Matatabi watched him with anger. But she still left it all to Dragon like she said she would.

"P...Please, Lord Dragon. Don't kill him." Yugito came up behind him with weak steps.

"After all that, and you don't want him dead?" Dragon asked casually.

"No, I don't. He did a lot for me and I just can't watch him die. No matter what he did to me." Yugito said and watched the Raikage laying there unconscious.

"hm,"

"Then let's do this." Dragon placed Matatabi on the side and walked up to A. He placed a hand on his chest and closed his eyes.

"[Erase]" Dragon said and the Raikage started to glow in white.

"What did you do? That energy you just used, even I felt like a house cat in front of it. What is it?" Matatabi asked under a state of shock.

"I took away his ability to utilize chakra. He will from now on and until the day he dies, never wield it again." Dragon said and saw the jaws of everyone here crash to the floor.

"You can do that? how?" B came in and asked. Chakra was the lifeblood of any shinobi. Not wielding it would immediately remove any status you had as a shinobi.

"Can't say. Trade secret." Dragon smiled. He was afraid that too much killing would revert him back to a man with absolutely no emotions. He loved Sylvia and his kids too much to let that happen.

"So now what?" Yugito asked carefully.

"Now I return to my home and if you want, you can come as well, Yugito." Dragon looked at the blonde shinobi.

"Why would you ask me that? And another village wouldn't take me in that easily." She said in a downcast tone.

"I am not talking about a village. I am talking about the place where the tailed beasts are going. I have a home there that you can live in if you want. You could spend time with Matatabi and also keep these guys in check when I'm not around. Which is most of the time."

"I don't know. My home is here." Yugito said and looked around at the destroyed village. She felt frustration and anger towards all parties involved. Her Raikage, Dragon, even herself. They were all to blame for this.

"If you wanna stay here and deal with what's to come. Then I'll understand since as you said, this is your home." He didn't press the issue. And he still had some things to take care off, so if she declined then he wouldn't try and argue with her.

"I think I'll stay. I can't leave the village after what just happened." She was silently glaring at him. Trying to not lash out about the destruction of the village, and all the people that would now find themselves without homes.

"If that's your decision then I won't say anything. Matatabi, Gyuki, we are leaving now." Dragon waved his hand and all three of them started to float up together.

"And I forgot to tell you something. One of my people will visit here soon. I have an offer for your village and he will tell you more about it." Dragon sped up and he disappeared together with the beasts.
