It is worth mentioning that back when Pakura raised that "sun" high into the air, the companions who came with her had already realized the situation was bad.
They all used their own movement techniques and retreated back at speeds beyond ordinary people's imagination, only stopping after reaching a safe area far away from the battlefield.
Because they clearly understood how terrifying the power of this technique was. Even being brushed by the aftermath could leave them beyond saving.
"Hah!"
After using this powerful secret technique, Pakura's face instantly turned pale. She gasped heavily and weakly gave an order, "Sealing squad, hurry! Shukaku isn't dead yet!"
Before she even finished speaking, two Sunagakure ninja rapidly formed complicated hand seals.
Along with their movements, a path that could be walked on suddenly appeared across the ground that had been flowing with burning "magma."
The sealing squad members carried heavy sealing scrolls on their backs as they ran toward the center along the newly opened path.
At the center area, the upper half of Shukaku's massive body had already completely melted away.
However, after the "magma" gradually flowed out, they were shocked to discover that a large amount of sand was still hidden inside, releasing extremely intense and unstable chakra fluctuations.
With smooth teamwork and assistance from their companions, the sealing squad successfully created several safe footholds in key directions.
At this moment, although only five sealing squad members remained, their sealing techniques were still more than enough to seal the Shukaku in front of them.
Maki, Pakura's proud disciple, stepped forward and formed hand seals.
At the same time, a huge cloth scroll suddenly rolled open and shot straight toward the restless mass of sand.
But the moment the cloth wrapped around the sand, an extremely violent struggling force immediately came from inside.
In the blink of an eye, the seemingly soft outer layer of cloth began twisting and deforming, as though an invisible giant force were kneading it into all kinds of strange shapes.
Clearly, Shukaku was desperately trying to break free from the cloth prison binding it.
Fortunately, the other sealing squad members also arrived in time.
The cloth scrolls they carried seemed alive as well. At the same moment, they rapidly rose into the air and swept straight toward the huge Shukaku at lightning speed.
In an instant, the cloth scrolls wrapped around Shukaku like giant snakes.
As the cloth made close contact with Shukaku, dense sealing symbols glowing with mysterious light gradually appeared across the surface.
At the same time, the surging chakra inside Shukaku seemed drawn by some powerful attraction.
It continuously poured out from its body and rushed madly toward the cloth scrolls.
And the originally aggressive Shukaku gradually showed weaker chakra reactions.
However, things did not end there.
Just as everyone thought the situation had already been brought under control, the chakra that had been continuously shrinking back into the cloth suddenly stopped.
Immediately after, all the chakra seemed to gather back into Shukaku's body in a single instant.
Pakura, who had been closely watching the battle, suddenly felt heat rise in her chest when she saw this scene.
Without time to think, she immediately shouted, "Everyone scatter at once! Hurry!"
Hearing Pakura's shout, the sealing squad members did not hesitate at all. They instantly jumped away and rapidly retreated from Shukaku.
Sure enough, the instant they left their original positions, the cloth scrolls that had been shrinking inward suddenly swelled up at shocking speed like balloons filled with air.
Seeing the change, a cold light flashed through Pakura's eyes.
She gave a light snort and swung her right hand. A huge burning fireball the size of a millstone instantly shot out toward the rapidly expanding cloth scrolls.
With a heavy thud, the giant fireball smashed directly into the cloth.
After pausing for a brief moment, a gigantic explosion followed.
The cloth scrolls that had absorbed chakra instantly ignited as though soaked in gasoline.
The flames spread like a savage fire dragon, wildly extending in every direction before swallowing the entire cloth scroll in the blink of an eye.
As for Shukaku sealed inside the cloth, it released a series of muffled and horrifying shrieks.
"Hiss... ah... ugh!"
Along with the piercing screams, the entire cloth roll crazily rolled around on the ground, as though enduring unbearable torture.
However, because it was tightly wrapped inside layers upon layers of cloth, it could not break free at all and could only helplessly endure the merciless burning heat.
Inside the mental world, Rasa cried out shouted, ["Shukaku, think of something quickly! If I die, you won't survive either!"]
He had never expected Pakura's strength to reach such a shocking level.
The confident him from before was now watching Shukaku suffer such severe damage before even fully completing the tailed beast transformation, and fear had already filled his heart.
At this moment, inside the mental world, Shukaku's furious and unwilling shrieks echoed endlessly, "Damn you, Pakura! Do you really think this little trick can kill me? I won't die here!"
Right then, Rasa suddenly felt himself regain control of his body.
This should have been something worth celebrating, but in the current situation, he could not feel happy at all.
Because at this moment, he was trapped inside raging flames, his entire body covered by scorching heat.
Unbearable pain flooded over him in an instant like a tide, rushing straight into his central nervous system.
Rasa let out a muffled groan. His body shuddered, and he completely lost consciousness.
Nearby, Pakura wore a grave expression. She held one hand up, her eyes fixed carefully on the burning flames, afraid another unexpected event might happen.
Time slowly passed by, but this time things did not become as dangerous as before. Everything remained unusually quiet.
Only a few minutes later, the originally vigorous signs of life rapidly declined at an astonishing speed until they were nearly gone.
At the same time, the chakra inside Rasa's body also fell silent as though completely drained away.
As the last trace of chakra disappeared, the outer flames instantly went out as though finally released, leaving only strands of black smoke slowly rising up.
