At the same time!
"Die, Boil Release: Horn Charge!"
The Five-Tailed Han controlled the Tailed Beast's body, instantly releasing a large amount of steam to increase speed and strength, charging towards the Mighty Woodman.
"Take this!"
Uchiha Yoichi pressed the Tailed Beast Ball hard against the Five-Tail's head, and the densely gathered Chakra Tailed Beast Ball exploded instantly upon impact.
The thousand-meter blaze and the violent shockwave immediately became the most terrifying presence on this battlefield.
Even from a far distance, the tremor from the Tailed Beast Ball explosion could still be felt.
After dozens of seconds, when the shockwave slowly subsided, the Five-Tailed Han was seen heavily injured, flying back hundreds of meters. Even though the Tailed Beast's body withstood most of the severe injuries, Han could still feel excruciating pain throughout his body.
"You fool, if you can't fight in Tailed Beast form, leave it to me. Don't use my body to endure severe injuries..."
The Five-Tails said to Han. Although it often lent Han Tailed Beast Chakra before, Han had never used full Tailed Beast Transformation in battle. They didn't expect the first battle to result in such a big mistake.
The Mighty Woodman also had an arm blown off, but under Uchiha Yoichi's control, it was soon repaired; thanks to Sage Art Chakra and Susanoo, otherwise it couldn't withstand a close-up Tailed Beast Ball explosion.
"Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence!"
After the Sealing, massive and numerous trees suddenly rose from the ground, instantly turning into a sea-like wave of trees sweeping towards the three Tailed Beasts.
"Be careful, don't let the trees entangle us..."
Just after being reminded by Gyuki, many trees suddenly grew under its feet, instantly wrapping its massive body.
"Damn it!"
The enraged Gyuki tried to break free from the trees but suddenly realized that the entanglement and toughness of the trees were incredible. Breaking a couple of them required a lot of strength.
This Wood Release, formed by Sage Art Chakra, arguably could already be called an Immortal Technique.
"Die!"
The Chakra Wooden Blade slashed horizontally, aiming to chop off Gyuki's head.
But Gyuki sensed the danger and used four octopus tails to guard its front. Although it blocked the slash, all four tails were cut off.
The pain made Gyuki howl directly in agony. Even though the tails could regenerate, the pain when cut off was unavoidable.
"Huaguo Mountain!"
Sun Wukong also took over the body from Roshi and then slammed heavily on the ground, causing scorching magma to erupt from the ground, setting the nearby trees ablaze and destroying them.
Despite being in the magma, Sun Wukong was unharmed, having played in the magma for years and was used to such an environment; and the Four-Tails also took over the full Tailed Beast Transformation from Roshi. Roshi and Han's first use of Tailed Beast bodies in battle was truly pathetic.
The Five-Tails also used Boil Release, releasing a lot of steam from its body to break through the wood binding; both these Tailed Beasts had special abilities, making them quite effective against Wood Release.
"Horn Break!"
After freeing itself, the Five-Tails used Boil Release to accelerate, then charged directly against the Mighty Woodman's Chakra Wooden Blade, clashing with it.
Its horn was the toughest spot on its body, coupled with the acceleration from Boil Release; for a moment, it pushed back the much larger Mighty Woodman!
Meanwhile, Four-Tails reached Gyuki and used Lava Release to break all the confining trees around Gyuki, asking, "Are you okay, Gyuki?"
"I'm fine, thankfully your power can break these trees, otherwise I would have to revert to normal form...." Gyuki replied with relief, knowing that without Tailed Beast form, Killer Bee would have to face the giant creature unprotected, likely dying within a few rounds.
"No more words, although Wood Release is powerful, it might not succeed in capturing the three of us. Go help the Five-Tails!"
While Four-Tails Sun Wukong was speaking, the Five-Tails had already been knocked down by the Mighty Woodman, which was ready to decapitate when an unexpected block intervened.
Both Four-Tails and Gyuki used Tailed Beast Balls again, launching almost simultaneously.
The first Tailed Beast Ball was deflected by the Mighty Woodman's slash, but the second arrived nearly at the same time, forcing it to withstand it hard.
In the explosion's instant, the Five-Tails shielded itself with its tails. Their Tailed Beast tails were very hard, able to block many attacks.
But only the Four-Tails could barely manage this; with fewer tails, the One-Tail, Two-Tail, and Three-Tail couldn't shield their massive bodies.
On another battlefield
Konoha's side hadn't lasted ten minutes before showing signs of defeat.
The Hidden Rock's elite around them proved hard to counter, their simple Rock Cannon Jutsu and Rock Pillar Spear Jutsu were used as if they were S-Class Kinjutsu, with endless descending rock attacks causing huge casualties for Konoha Ninjas.
Even Jonin had to use Chakra-consuming Ninjutsu to defend against the coordinated attacks of the Hidden Rock Ninja.
But the enemies used Earth Release Ninjutsu, consuming very little Chakra, and after several rounds, Konoha Ninjas couldn't hold on, only able to fall back.
Once the formation was in chaos, Hidden Cloud Ninja formed raiding parties to charge in, constantly attacking Konoha Ninjas under the cover of various Ninjutsu, Shuriken Kunai, and Explosive Tags.
"Lord Hatake, Lord Orochimaru, we can't hold on any longer, Hidden Rock Ninja and Hidden Cloud Ninja are going to break into our formation...."
The two at loggerheads with A and Kitsuchi heard this voice—this was the Yamanaka Clan's Ninjutsu communication, able to keep them informed of the battlefield's situation at any time.
But how much time had passed? The enemy's attack was too ferocious!
"Retreat immediately, we've lost this war, fall back to the second camp to build defenses, summon the giant serpent as cover!"
Hatake Sakumo ordered right away. Through the Yamanaka Clan's Ninjutsu, he already knew the situation; Hidden Cloud Ninja and Hidden Rock Ninja seemed insane, and with their great strength, they didn't spare any Chakra usage, striking with Ninjutsu consecutively without pause.
"Orochimaru, go inform Mr. Yoichi to find an opportunity to retreat. If it's difficult, tell me, and I'll support you; Ijin, help Orochimaru with contact."
After issuing orders through the Yamanaka Clan's Ninjutsu, Hatake Sakumo used Shadow Clone Jutsu.
Seeing this, A became alert, but then angrily shouted as he saw Hatake Sakumo's Shadow Clone heading towards Orochimaru and Kitsuchi, "Konoha White Fang, how dare you look down on me!"
Though on the defensive earlier, it wasn't as if he had no counterattack ability, but Konoha White Fang dared to allocate half his Chakra to aid others, truly looking down on him!
"I'll kill you!"
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
The Lightning Release Chakra around A flowed at its fastest, slightly faster than before, charging towards Hatake Sakumo.
Meanwhile, once Orochimaru saw Hatake Sakumo's Shadow Clone arriving, he immediately used Snake Style Ninjutsu to disengage and hurried towards Uchiha Yoichi's location.
"Kuan Ren, Yuuta, Toshinin, use Ninjutsu to block Konoha White Fang, don't let them get close!"
Kitsuchi ordered as he used Ninjutsu to force back Hatake Sakumo's Shadow Clone, then pursued Orochimaru.
——————————————
"These beasts!"
Uchiha Yoichi's anger rose as his attacks were repeatedly neutralized by the three Tailed Beasts working together.
Suddenly, he noticed Orochimaru arriving, saw him use the Summoned Giant Snake to entangle the Four-Tails and Five-Tails' feet, then forcefully exploding to topple them.
Then Uchiha Yoichi heard a voice in his mind, "Lord Yoichi, I am Yamanaka Ijin, this is my Ninjutsu, enabling communication with Lord Orochimaru..."
"Mr. Yoichi, the main front has collapsed, we're planning to retreat, I'm here to cover you..."
"No need just yet. Before retreating, I aim to slay at least one Tailed Beast!"
Uchiha Yoichi's words reached Orochimaru and Yamanaka Ijin's minds, even surprising Orochimaru, who momentarily thought he misheard.
However, in the next second, Uchiha Yoichi created a Wood Clone to maintain the Mighty Woodman, then his main body leaped far away; though the Mighty Woodman had drained much of his Chakra, he still conserved enough to use his trump card.
He manifested the Four Symbols Seal technique in his hand, then pressed and turned it against his stomach!
The large cage of the Four Symbols Seal inside his body was directly unlocked, Chakra enveloped Godzilla, causing this giant beast to grow tremendously!
Then changes occurred all over Uchiha Yoichi's body—hard shells appeared, a tail grew on his back, his hands turned into sharp claws, and his figure grew larger and larger.
"Roar!!"
