Naruto: Boruto Returns to Shippuden

Chapter 166 Chakra Cannon

"Toad Oil Bomb!"

Jiraiya swiftly formed hand seals, channeling his chakra and transforming it into a special oily substance.

Then, Jiraiya opened his mouth and sprayed the chakra oil at Five-Tails Naruto, who was not far away, forming a giant toad oil bomb.

The toad oil bullet hit Five-Tails Naruto directly, covering his body. The toad oil is not only sticky, but it can also reduce the target's mobility, making Five-Tails Naruto's movements sluggish and making it difficult for him to take advantage of the tailed beast's agility.

However, Naruto, the Five-Tails, did not move in the face of Jiraiya's attack. Instead, he once again mobilized the surging chakra within his body, gathering it at the corner of his mouth to form a powerful Tailed Beast Ball.

However, unlike before, this time he did not choose to release this destructive energy, but instead swallowed the Hair-Tailed Beast Ball whole.

The moment Five-Tails Naruto absorbed the Tailed Beast Ball, his body underwent a dramatic change. His body began to expand rapidly, and his muscles and skin seemed to be stretched by internal forces, becoming abnormally large.

His mouth swelled up like a giant toad, and then he turned his head, his gaze sharp as he looked in Jiraiya's direction, preparing to unleash a chakra cannon.

When Boruto saw that Five-Tails Naruto's target had turned to Jiraiya, he immediately mobilized the chakra within his body and merged it with the natural power within him, activating Sage Mode.

With the activation of Sage Mode, Boruto's face displayed the features of a Sage's Mask, and his aura surged. A powerful natural energy surrounded him, significantly enhancing his chakra fluctuations and even momentarily overpowering the aura of Five-Tails Naruto.

Boruto quickly took out a special shuriken from his ninja tool pouch. The shuriken had the Flying Thunder God's special mark engraved on its surface. He aimed it at the top of Five-Tails Naruto and then threw the shuriken forcefully.

The shuriken drew a chilling arc in the air, flying towards its designated location to provide Boruto with a teleportation coordinate.

The instant the shuriken flew toward its intended location, Boruto used the Flying Thunder God technique to appear above Five-Tails Naruto almost simultaneously.

At the same time, Five-Tails Naruto had completed the condensation of the Chakra Cannon. His mouth was filled with chakra, which formed a powerful energy inside his mouth, ready to be released at any moment.

Boruto gathered the natural energy within his body into his palm, and his palm began to emit a green light. Then, with great force, he unleashed the Frog Strike, striking fiercely towards the head of Five-Tails Naruto.

Boruto's Frog Kick attack accurately struck Five-Tails Naruto's head. The powerful impact caused Five-Tails Naruto's body to shake violently and slam into the ground.

Under this powerful blow, the chakra cannon that Five-Tails Naruto was about to fire was deflected due to the interference.

The chakra cannon veered off its original trajectory, carrying destructive power as it whistled past Jiraiya, dodging Naruto's direct attack.

As the chakra cannon landed, the ground was torn apart, leaving a deep ravine, dust flew up, rocks shattered, and the surrounding terrain was severely damaged by the attack.

The moment Boruto successfully interfered with Five-Tails Naruto and caused the chakra cannon to deviate, Five-Tails Naruto also reacted.

Suddenly, a strange form appeared on its back: a completely new body split off from its back, opening its huge mouth like a ferocious beast, and fiercely biting at Boruto's head.

Faced with Naruto's sudden attack, Boruto was slightly surprised, but he did not show any panic. After all, things can change in an instant on the battlefield, so Boruto had prepared a backup plan.

With a series of crackling sounds, a violent explosion suddenly erupted from the ground beneath Five-Tails Naruto's feet. When Boruto teleported over using the Flying Thunder God Technique, he had already tied several explosive tags to kunai and thrown them at Five-Tails Naruto's feet.

These explosive tags were detonated at the critical moment, catching Five-Tails Naruto off guard. The ground beneath his feet began to sink, and the violent tremors caused him to lose his balance.

Boruto seized the moment when Five-Tails Naruto lost his balance due to the explosion and used the Frog Kyuubi technique. He used the power of nature to enhance his sensory range and thus increase his destructive power. Moreover, the attack range was very wide, making it extremely difficult for Five-Tails Naruto to defend against.

Under Boruto's attack, Five-Tails Naruto was knocked heavily to the ground. As he fell, the ground could not withstand the huge impact and cracked.

Five-Tails Naruto struggled to his feet, his body trembling with rage, and let out a deafening roar.

At this moment, he was completely controlled by rage. The power of the tailed beast surged within him, and with his roar, the sixth chakra tail slowly grew out from his tailbone.

Moreover, parts of his body began to be covered by white bones, which acted like a natural suit of armor, enhancing his defense and making his appearance even more ferocious.

Jiraiya had moved to Boruto's side, his expression revealing deep worry. He whispered to Boruto, "Naruto's emotions are very unstable right now. He's completely controlled by Kurama's chakra. As his emotions fluctuate more, the effect of the Eight Trigrams Seal will gradually weaken."

Once the seal fails, Naruto will face the danger of being assimilated by the Nine-Tails, and they must reseal the Nine-Tails' chakra as soon as possible to prevent the situation from deteriorating further.

Jiraiya frowned and continued to Boruto, "It seems that breaking the Eight Trigrams Seal within Naruto was far too reckless. When Naruto developed his fourth tail, he had already lost consciousness and was completely unable to control the power of the Nine-Tails."

Jiraiya underestimated the impact of the Nine-Tails' chakra on Naruto, as well as the serious consequences that might result from breaking the seal. Although Boruto's power was able to successfully suppress Naruto in his tailed beast form.

However, Kurama will continuously weaken Naruto's consciousness, trying to completely control his body. Even if Boruto can temporarily suppress Naruto on a physical level, Naruto will not be able to resist Kurama's mental erosion on his own if things continue like this.

Just then, Gamabunta's figure suddenly appeared behind Jiraiya, his voice sounding somewhat urgent. He said to Boruto, "We must bind Naruto before he grows more tails and reseal the Nine-Tails' chakra."

They must stop the Nine-Tails' chakra within Naruto from spiraling out of control, or the situation will become even more uncontrollable than it is now.
