Naruto : The ultimate Troublemaker

As the battle seemed evenly matched, Bee took advantage of an opening to send Jura flying with a combined attack of his seven swords. Jura rolled on the ground, quickly getting back up, but Bee sensed that he had gained the upper hand.

Jura straightened up, his glowing red eyes suddenly shining with a different light. His pupils took on the characteristic shape of the toad sage mode. A natural aura emanated from him, amplifying his chakra and making the air around him oppressive.

— "Sage mode," Jura murmured.

Bee frowned.

— "Ah, is that so? You're stepping it up, but I'm already at the top!"

Jura, now in sage mode, attacked with increased power. His strikes were faster, more precise, and incredibly powerful. He struck Bee in the chest, breaking through the sword defense and sending him flying several meters away.

Bee struggled to his feet, feeling the difference in power.

He charged again, his blows leaving craters in the ground. Bee tried to counter with his swords, but he was quickly overwhelmed. Each of Jura's attacks seemed to anticipate his movements, as if the sage mode allowed him to read Bee's mind.

Bee attempted a surprise attack, diving into the ground to reappear behind Jura. But the latter, thanks to his enhanced perception, anticipated the attack and delivered a powerful kick that sent Bee crashing into a rock.

"You're a good fighter," Jura said, advancing slowly. "But it won't be enough."

Bee, wiping the blood from his lip, smiled despite the pain.

— "Don't worry, buddy. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve."

Bee partially activated the chakra of the Hachibi, a reddish aura surrounding his body. His movements became faster, and his power increased significantly. He rushed towards Jura, his swords creating arcs of lightning in the air.

Jura evaded the initial strikes, but Bee managed to hit him on the side, making Jura retreat for the first time since activating sage mode.

— "You're not invincible, buddy."

Jura smiled slightly, wiping the blood from his side.

— "Only the master can defeat me. You haven't reached that level yet."

He prepared his next attack, ready to push Bee to his limits. The battle, though already intense, was far from over.

Bee felt the pressure mounting. Each of Jura's strikes became heavier, every movement faster, and his reflexes seemed inhuman. Even with his seven swords in hand, Bee struggled to match his opponent. Jura, in sage mode, perfectly mastered his natural chakra, each attack carrying devastating power.

Bee, wiping the sweat from his brow, knew he had to step up his game.

A swirling red aura enveloped Killer Bee as he activated the chakra of the Hachibi. His skin cracked slightly, and four tails appeared first, followed quickly by two more.

Bee charged at Jura, his six tails whipping the air with terrifying power. His movements were now unpredictable, fast, and charged with the chakra of the eight-tailed beast. Jura, however, did not back down.

Bee struck with one of his tails, but Jura barely evaded, his sage mode amplifying his reflexes. Seizing the opportunity, Jura teleported behind Bee using his *body scintillation technique*, delivering a reinforced elbow strike to his kidneys. The impact sent Bee crashing into a tree, which shattered under the force of the blow.

— "Not bad, buddy," Bee growled as he got back up. "But you'll need more than that to bring me down!"

Bee unleashed a devastating attack, combining his swords and tails. Jura, anticipating the assault, created three clones that rushed towards Bee. The jinchūriki swept away two clones with a simple tail movement, but the third managed to grab one of his swords and destabilize him.

Jura took advantage of the opening and appeared in front of Bee, delivering a kick directly to his chest. The impact resonated like an explosion, propelling Bee backward for dozens of meters.

Bee, furious, concentrated the chakra of the Hachibi in his mouth, forming a mini bijū orb.

He fired the orb directly at Jura. But Jura, with blinding speed, teleported next to the attack, leaving a residual image in his previous position. The resulting explosion destroyed a large portion of the terrain, but Jura remained intact, his piercing eyes fixed on Bee.

— "Explosions, tails... But still no strategy," Jura said calmly.

Bee increased the pace. His six tails were now being used at full power, each moving like a deadly weapon. Jura, on the other hand, continued to use his perfected taijutsu and sage mode to maintain balance.

The exchanged blows were of unimaginable violence. Each of Bee's strikes created craters in the ground, while Jura's counterattacks left gaping fissures. The battle was so fast that even experienced ninjas, observing from a distance, struggled to follow the action.

Bee launched a series of combined strikes with his tails, but Jura evaded them with impressive agility. Suddenly, Bee managed to grab him with two of his tails, keeping him immobilized.

— "You're caught, buddy! Now, taste my power!" Bee cried, preparing a new bijū orb.

But Jura, with absolute calm, activated a powerful genjutsu Bee's eyes wavered for a moment, and he released his grip just before the orb was fully formed. Taking advantage of the confusion, Jura struck Bee with a blazing combo, sending him rolling on the ground.

Jura pushed his sage mode to its maximum, his natural chakra radiating around him like a blue aura. His reflexes reached a near-divine level. Bee, though in six-tailed mode, struggled to keep up with his opponent's monstrous speed.

Jura struck with increased power, sending Bee flying multiple times. The trees around them were reduced to rubble, and the battlefield turned into a field of ruins.
