Chapter 204: Didn't the Six-Tails Inside You Tell You Not to Court Death?

Run! Run for your life!

Bailang hurriedly threw his ninja pouch filled with kunai and shuriken far away and sprinted without daring to glance back at Hagoromo Gengetsu.

However, he hadn't run far when the surrounding moisture quickly concentrated, forming ice needles that shot at him from all directions.

A loud scream echoed.

The scream quickly weakened and then fell silent.

Casually swatting a few ants, Hagoromo Gengetsu continued forward without further interest. Just like a year ago, he traversed the trap-laden perimeter of Katsuragi Mountain and arrived at the barrier.

"Since we're acquaintances, let's change the method of violently breaking the barrier from last time."

Looking at the defensive barrier ahead, Hagoromo Gengetsu touched his chin and quickly made a decision.

He extended his hands and pressed against the barrier.

Then, with a forceful pull to the sides.

Rip!

The barrier tore open like thin paper, just enough for one person to pass through.

As Hagoromo Gengetsu stepped inside...

In the Tsuchigumo Clan territory, a monitoring crystal ball for the barrier cracked with a "snap," triggering an alarm.

"Enemies! They've breached the barrier!"

Tonbee's face changed dramatically, recalling the invasion a year ago where the enemy had similarly entered Katsuragi Mountain without warning.

The ensuing battle was still vivid in his memory.

If this time the enemy's strength is similar...

"Lady Hotaru! We must evacuate immediately!"

Instinctively, Tonbee wanted to take Hotaru and flee.

But he forgot, Hotaru's strength now surpassed his by far.

"This is the Tsuchigumo Clan's territory. As its leader, it's my duty to defend our home."

Hotaru deftly dodged Tonbee's reaching hand, her gaze resolute.

Just then...

From the nearby bed, the recently unconscious Utakata opened his eyes.

Rumbling...

Ominous chakra surged from his body.

Hotaru was stunned.

"What is this? Such a massive amount of chakra! And this aura, why is it so terrifying?"

Hotaru couldn't help but step back a few paces.

Tonbee mirrored her actions, staring at Utakata in shock.

This suffocating, violent aura reminded him of the battlefield in the Great Ninja War, where he'd seen a similar aura emanating from someone.

Water Release: Bubble Technique.

Utakata picked up a straw, blew into it, and numerous seemingly harmless but actually highly destructive bubbles floated towards Hagoromo Gengetsu.

"Six-Tails Jinchuriki."

Hagoromo Gengetsu calmly said, his gaze shifting.

Ice needles rapidly formed in front of him.

With a sweeping motion...

The bubbles burst with loud pops as the Bubble Technique was instantly nullified.

"Ice Release? Yuki Clan?"

Utakata's expression changed.

Before he could react further...

Hagoromo Gengetsu's voice reached his ears again:

"Didn't the Six-Tails inside you tell you not to court death?"

Utakata was taken aback.

Unlike a perfect Jinchuriki, he had a minimal relationship with the Six-Tails, rarely communicating.

He didn't understand why the person in front of him said such a thing.

Could it be that the Six-Tails knew this person and was afraid of him?

Impossible!

How could a terrifying weapon like a Tailed Beast fear a human?

Utakata shook his head.

Regardless, Hagoromo Gengetsu had effortlessly broken his signature technique.

He was very strong. Utakata had to give his all.

Utakata's expression turned serious.

Seeing this, Hagoromo Gengetsu also shook his head.

Tailed Beasts had a unique way of communicating. Even if the Six-Tails didn't know him, it should have sensed his strength.

Now, there was no reaction at all.

It seemed the relationship between this Jinchuriki and his Tailed Beast wasn't good.

If that's the case...

"Let's wake you up first."

Hagoromo Gengetsu's figure blurred, instantly appearing beside Utakata, and delivered a punch.

Utakata's pupils contracted as his body was instantly covered by the Six-Tails' chakra. He barely managed to raise his arm in defense.

Boom!

Utakata was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing through several walls. After dragging along the ground for seventy or eighty meters, his body embedded deeply into the earth, finally coming to a stop.

Hagoromo Gengetsu retracted his gaze and calmly said:

"Six-Tails Jinchuriki, captured."
