"Everyone, monsters are here!"
On the town road, a man declared openly with a frantic expression. Running across the town with dreadful warnings about what appeared to be anomalies soaring out of the atmosphere around town. Near the stall, a young man with his 9 plushies enjoying their time eating was suddenly disturbed by the ominous shouts and screams of the people around them.
"Are they calling us monsters?! Pretentious humans! I will kill them all!" On the young man's side, an orange fox with 9 tails seemed to be snarling about the current situation.
"Maybe you are thinking too highly of yourself, Kurama. Think clearly; we have been here for so long, yet the people are still oblivious..." The ox-headed creature with 8 tails commented, still unsure.
"Hehehehe... Maybe it's a gimmick of these humans; how exhilarating!" A rhinoceros beetle with 7 tails followed by mischievous remarks.
"Hmph! Although I don't trust the stinky fox, I think he has a point! What do you think, Yoichi?!" a cute tanuki with one tail asked for the young man's response while the rest glanced at the man.
"Hmmm... Maybe let's look and see the unrest. Then we will have our verdict, okay? Eat the ramen in one go, and we'll watch the turmoil further..." After eating all his meal, Yoichi stood up and furrowed his eyebrows at the crazy circumstances.
Subsequently, he and the Tailed Beast Gang scoured around the world slowly and enjoyed the gorgeous sceneries while having back-and-forths for a couple of months now. Furthermore, getting along with the adorable appearances of the Tailed Beasts seemed to be relatively relaxing and enjoyable. The constant banter and camaraderie felt like a good time for Yoichi's lonely venturing.
Currently, the whole group is thoroughly baffled by the ominous and panicked utterances around them, unaware of the recent predicament nearby until the Akashic Records announced his status.
[Multiple Malicious Intents have been detected.]
[All Against Odds has been activated.]
[200,000 opponents have been registered as a threat. 45% of overall attributes boosted by (All Against Odds)]
Technically, the gifted strengthening performance was negligible for Yoichi's recent frightening power, yet it was still a boost to consider when the massive swarm of adversaries was in the fray.
"Did you feel it, Kurama?" Looking at the armies of humans marching in the open field, Yoichi felt something was greatly wrong with these people.
"Grrrrrr! Outlandish humans! They are attracted by our power! I will kill every one of them!" Sensing the malice, Kurama growled in anger while the rest grew serious as the tension between the Tailed Beasts skyrocketed, with immense Chakra arising in each of every one of them.
"I see... Then, let's show these people some sense. Having exercise like this should be sufficient for every one of you!" Hearing his wrathful tone, Yoichi glanced at each of the transformed Tailed Beasts as if the Avengers pulled over.
Hydrogen Bomb versus coughing baby situation.
Without further ado, the Tailed Beast Gang rushed to the front lines with massive bodies; each step of the Tailed Beasts produced little tremors on the ground and swiped the enemies left to right.
"Water Release: Riptide!"
The battle was as chaotic as it should be. Multiple releases of each tailed beast devastated the lands and killed the mindless people. Without any remorse, Yoichi unleashed torrential water spouts that spurted out of the ground and blasted tremendous amounts into the sky.
The devastating numbers of troublesome foes weren't the issue. Instead, the crisis it brought to the world would certainly be a complicated matter since all of the people were controlled by someone. There was no point in aiming for the tailed beasts unless it was Black Zetsu or anyone else, and Yoichi didn't have the time to talk about innocents or not. A tricky issue must be resolved properly and decisively for the stability of the world.
"Someone's approaching, and it's flying!" Standing in the sky, Yoichi frowned and glanced at the black dot closing the distance between him and the uninvited guest. A headless body, stick-like waists, large wings, a mouth with protruding bones in the chest, thin hands, and sharp claws, as if it were a Lovecraftian creature.
'Satori! From the Box of Ultimate Bliss!'
"Hehehe... So much fear and anger! I want it!" Flapping his considerable wings, Satori salivated from the chaotic massacre going on beneath him, enjoying the scene and ignoring Yoichi from the side.
"Lightning Release: Chakra Mode!"
"Hell Stab: Four Finger Nukite!"
In an instant, Yoichi rushed forward in the air with his incredible speed and power, respectively.
However, Satori's remarkable instinct deftly avoided the lethal attack using his fear and bloodlust detector, an inherent ability he gained from the Box of Ultimate Bliss, the desire of humanity.
Therefore, Satori counterattacked with his black feathers in explosive momentum as the speed of the attack blotted the sky in black.
"Hell Stab: One Finger Nukite!"
Dodging the strike effortlessly, Yoichi employed his frightening power with an immense amount of Chakra in his finger, drilling Satori's torso with supreme speed and strength.
'This creature is surely a tough nut to crack... Immune to physical and ninjutsu attacks...' Yoichi thought while Satori recovered instantly from his attack, flapping his extensive wings in the air.
"Who are you?!" the mouthful torso of Satori roared. His enemy's unmatched acceleration and potency were enough to conquer the world, yet he didn't know the foe's identity throughout his entire life.
"Sage Mode!"
At that moment, Yoichi dismissed Satori's remark and unleashed his Sage Mode, while the transformation changed his hair to white, like a ghostly visage, as the natural energy constantly fueled his body, revealing superior control over his Sage Chakra.
"What an unparalleled display of power... I need to figure out how to defeat this monstrosity in the future, or else my plans will be all for naught!"
"How spectacular! That kind of Chakra was not humanly possible without any tricks or gimmicks in his arsenal! Also, there are no further implications, such as animal traits, in his Sage Mode!"
In the distance, a black eerie substance and an orange toad commented on the breathtaking scene in front of their very eyes. Black Zetsu gritted his teeth and racked his brain for the plans in store while Gamamaru merely watched the scene in plain sight.
"Hmmm... How cool! Then..." Yoichi quickly inspected his overall appearance and smirked while Satori retreated immediately.
"Sage Art: One Finger Nukite!"
Overflowing with Sage Chakra, he instantly arrived and delivered his attack. In his mind, the Sage Mode indisputably increased his across-the-board qualities significantly, coupled with [Against All Odds] distribution.
Crashing to the ground, Satori felt excruciating pain yet he ignored it and withdrew, increasing the distance between himself and Yoichi. Fighting against his troublesome opponent in that form might destroy his chances of ruling the world.
"Where are you going?! It's still necessary for me to test your indestructibility!"
"Sage Art: Depth Charge!"
However, Yoichi cast the Nautilus-like ultimate as the powerful water torrents surged forth straightforwardly toward Satori's retreating figure, while the mindless people became collateral damage to his technique.
"Bastard! It's pointless! You will never destroy me! Never!"
In his desperate struggle, Satori vented as the powerful red orbs of destruction were expelled one by one through his mouth with precision in Yoichi's path.
Looking at the descending orbs, Yoichi sliced each incoming orb in half with his newly created katana in his hands.
"Here it comes!"
"Aaaarrrrggghhh!"
After a few seconds, a seemingly packed water torrent expelled Satori's heavyweight body into the air, leaving him vulnerable.
"Sage Art: Atomic Slash!"
Without wasting any time, Yoichi arrived near Satori's indestructible body and sliced him into pieces in just one second. Not even a bit of noise was heard from Satori, erased by the Nautilus-Yasuo Combo.
Later, he collected the remaining pieces as a research component for his thorough study of Satori's genetic composition. Then, Yoichi caught up with the Tailed Beast Gang's exhausted figures, leaning on each other like friends tired from intensive exercise.
"Oi, we have an agreement, okay? Do not trouble this laid-back guy, or else we are dead, understand?!" Recovering slightly, Kurama reminded the rest of the group, and they merely nodded in response.
Although they were pretty strong in terms of their power scaling, the instinctive sense of animals still prevailed in their systems. Arrogance as a tailed beast should be kept in check, and they undoubtedly knew not to mess things around.
"Oh? This creature was still recovering after that? Let me do this... 'Four Symbols Seal!' There we go!"
Looking at Satori's fantastic healing process, Yoichi speculated that Satori's pesky aspect had come into the Box, including the recovery state. All in all, he evaluated Satori before placing him in the Research Container.
"Sage Art: Great Moving Earth Core!"
Shockingly burying 200,000 people, Yoichi clasped his hands together and prayed for their farewell consolation to the mortal world as the gruesome scene gradually laid to rest, serving as fertilizer for a new beginning of the bloodbath land.
"Come, let's find that box!" Yoichi commanded while the rest transformed into their adorable appearances from earlier but hesitated in a certain way.
"Yoichi, can you please turn that off? It's suffocating for us!" Shukaku pleaded, while the rest ultimately nodded vigorously. The Sage Chakra emitted from Yoichi felt intimidating enough to scare them into oblivion.
"Hehehe... Sorry!" Yoichi scratched his head and casually turned off his Sage Mode. The rest heaved a sigh of relief and hugged Yoichi's body. Kurama was on top of his head. Gyuki, Chōmei, Saiken, and Kokuō were on his shoulders, while Son Goku, Isobu, Matatabi, and Shukaku were in his arms.
All of them walked away from the scene with minor injuries except for Yoichi's tremendous physique.
