B emerged, breaking through the ground from where he had been buried at a distance, looking from Naruto to Nii in her current state, with a furrowed brow. After all, his companion had turned out to be a useless fighter in the context of this battle, which was a significant disadvantage for all the ninjas on his side, especially since Akame could shift to other battlefields.

Nibi was still trying to free herself from her position, beginning to lose her transformation as she attempted to escape in her human form.

B ignored Naruto and advanced towards Akame, trying to bring her down now that her Mangekyou Sharingan wasn't as active anymore. He believed that if he could take her down, he could release Nii from her state of endless looping.

Meanwhile, the beast itself was trying to escape that situation in various ways, but in the end, nothing worked, and it made a different attempt as its transformation began to fade, returning to its human form to see if it could break free from the endless cycle.

"That’s not going to happen!" Naruto saw B advancing toward Akame, and his body transformed into light, traveling swiftly in a straight line at his maximum speed.

As B continued his advance, a ray of light shot toward him at high speed, faster than he could react, with Naruto having never used such speed on him before.

"I’m your opponent, idiot." Naruto spoke before punching B in the face, distorting his features with the blow, unable to react. Even with his transformation into pure crimson chakra, he felt immense pain as the Armament Haki covered Naruto's fist, and in the next moment, B was sent flying in the opposite direction, his face twisted. A streak of light was left on his face as he was propelled at high speed, crashing a distance away, the impact causing a large area of the ground to crack before an explosion erupted, covering a vast area in the distance.

Akame landed beside Naruto, the ground completely destroyed from the blow he had delivered to the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki.

"I came to help. If I can get him into the same state I put the other beast, we can win." Akame immediately suggested, but Naruto shook his head.

"If you use that skeletal form again, you’ll lose your vision. We can handle this, but you don’t need to resort to that again. I’m impressed with your skill, but don’t use it anymore." Naruto said in a serious tone.

"I know, alright..." Akame responded, still wanting to help, even though she knew she was being stubborn and that Naruto wouldn’t agree with it.

The explosion half a kilometer away, which had overshadowed even the daylight, began to settle, and Naruto narrowed his eyes, knowing something would come out of it, as the Jinchuuriki wouldn’t be defeated so easily.

"Listen, Akame." He turned to her in the next moment. "I need you to speak with the clan members. I need you to summon him for me, but you don’t have chakra, so you’ll need to reach the member of the Darin clan, who was a new swordsman of the mist."

Naruto asked this because the Darin clan had the ability to transfer chakra to another person. The same had happened with Kimimaro, receiving chakra to counter the advance of the former Mizukage against the rebels, managing to halt the attack while creating giant bones to reinforce the stone barrier at the time.

"You want to summon him??" Akame was a little surprised by this, while Naruto simply nodded.

"Listen, Akame. You managed to control the Two-Tails, but she’s not a complete beast..." Naruto began, looking at the creature undoing its transformation, returning to human form, frustrated, still unable to break free from her loop, with Nii even entering a state of dizziness as her brain tried to process the repeated change of scenery, without success, and returning to the same place, not to mention it was exhausting for her to exit a tailed transformation.

"I want you to summon him." Naruto said. After all, he knew very well what would happen next, as enormous tentacles emerged in the distance, breaking through the ground and rising from the dust cloud, revealing a perfect transformation.

"Go now!" Naruto exclaimed in a serious tone to Akame.

Akame nodded and began to retreat at that moment, heading toward the battlefield, passing by the Jinchuuriki in the same place.

"Why can't I get out of here!!" Nii complained with a tired expression, as she jumped out of her spot, but again rewound and returned to her original position.

She didn’t even notice someone approaching her, who reappeared in front of her, and before she could do anything or react, Akame struck her neck, making her fall, defeated.

Akame didn’t use her as a hostage because a Jinchuuriki was always unstable, and Nii could simply explode into a crisis due to her beast, transforming again or freeing it. Knowing it was dangerous, she ignored the fallen blonde and advanced to another nearby battlefield, where the Mist Swordsmen, along with the Kumo ninjas, were still trying to protect their hostages.

Akame’s presence was noticed, which brought a disadvantage to the Kumo ninjas, who now had to deal with another powerful adversary, even without her Mangekyou Sharingan now. Akame appeared on the battlefield, starting to spit fire, warning the Kumo ninjas, further complicating their movements.

She went to a misty field, a jutsu performed by the Mist Swordsman she was searching for, and the ninja from Kiri was already about to finish off his enemy. There were no fatalities in the area, only a few defeated Kumo ninjas. The Mist Swordsmen were outnumbered, with Kumo ninjas in greater force, but their combat quality wasn’t superior to one of the Seven Swordsmen, Ao, Akame, or Naruto himself.

Still, both Kiri and Kumo were avoiding using powerful attacks as much as possible, as neither village wanted to kill their ninjas, since that could mean the start of a war or a major diplomatic crisis. The first fatal bloodshed would lead to severe consequences. Kiri only wanted to recover their ninjas, while Kumo sought to fight and demand compensation for those same ninjas.

In the distance, the Eight-Tails finally fully emerged, roaring. It knew it would have to fight with everything against that blonde with some kind of strange Kekkei Genkai.

"We have to be careful, B... this guy is as fast as the Fourth Hokage... he even reminds me of him... But his ability is even scarier... he can turn his body into light and travel anywhere he wants, while the Hokage was limited to teleporting to marked locations with his seals." Hachibi began speaking inside B's mind.

"But beyond his speed... He is extremely powerful and destructive... this guy is the most dangerous we've ever faced..." Hachibi had to admit, after all, Naruto could launch explosive light beams with the pika pika no mi and even go toe-to-toe with a Jinchuuriki using Armament Haki, though the bijuu didn’t know these details.

"Don’t worry, we’ll show him who's boss!" B said confidently in his complete Hachibi form, looking into the distance, near where Nii had fallen, but he couldn’t find Naruto there.

"Where is he...? Hm!" B murmured, noticing Naruto had disappeared, and suddenly, a powerful explosion hit the beast’s chin as Naruto reappeared below, delivering an uppercut.

"You got bigger... but you’re still slow." Naruto said, burying his fist into the bijuu’s skin while creating a colossal blow that lifted the Eight-Tails' body from the ground, causing Hachibi to roar in pain.

"He is strong," Hachibi muttered inside B. "So strong he even reminds me of the Third Raikage..."

B didn’t stand still as he saw Naruto lifting him from the ground, and he used his tails to try and strike him. Naruto used Geppo and his fruit, transforming into light and zigzagging until he reached the Eight-Tails' head once again. He punched it again, forcing it further off the ground.

'Damn... he's even stronger than the Third Raikage himself...' Hachibi concluded, though the Third was physically strong, his specialty was piercing with his fingers. Now, Naruto was creating a black layer on his hand, capable of delivering explosive punches, able to move thousands of tons against gravity with just punches.

"If he isn't stopped, this is going to get worse..." B thought, gritting his teeth.

Quickly, Hachibi launched its tentacles once more, with Naruto getting closer to him. When Naruto reappeared, he struck Hachibi in the chest, and the giant beast roared, turning its head towards him as it opened its mouth, catching Naruto by surprise as it unleashed a point-blank bijuu chakra explosion.

The blast rapidly expanded, with everyone hearing it, and it erupted on the ground on that side. The explosion was larger than any other since the start of the fight, shaking every battlefield at that moment.

"Naruto!!" Akame exclaimed as her fist connected with the ninja from the Darin clan. She didn’t hesitate before darting towards where Naruto was, after receiving a large amount of chakra, causing the member of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist to fall to his knees, exhausted after transferring all of his chakra when Akame demanded it.

Hachibi began to fall, crashing into the destroyed area with a massive sound as its body descended into a colossal dust cloud. "Did we get him?" Hachibi asked.

"We showed him who’s the strongest!" B was celebrating with a rap when a streak of light appeared in the middle of the smoke, moving towards the Eight-Tails' head, catching B and Hachibi by surprise.

"That was a good attack, I guess I got distracted trying to punch him with my strength..." Naruto wanted to see how far his current power would take him and ended up letting himself be hit by the attack, but he appeared, leaving a perplexed B seeing Naruto perfectly fine, wondering how he managed to protect himself.

Naruto smiled at Hachibi, whose mouth was still open, before delivering a direct punch to its face, smashing it in the next instant.

"Ngh...!" The Eight-Tails groaned in pain as it fell backward, crushing the ground beneath it.

"You made it." Naruto landed on the ground as a shadow appeared above him.

"I'm ready!" Akame said as her chakra had mostly recovered, and in the next moment, she performed hand seals, releasing them on the ground. Even though her chakra wasn't fully restored, after unlocking her Mangekyou Sharingan, her energy reserves had increased several times over since that time, making her like a mini chakra monster.

Hachibi tried to lift its head as it saw a massive white explosion appear where Naruto had been.

"Hm... where am I... I see..." A colossal voice echoed as a new bijuu appeared, displaying its three tails while Isobu stared at Hachibi from a distance, with Naruto and Akame standing on its head.
