Naruto than asks what it is, and tells him it's a simple move by, gathering Chakra, use Shape Manipulation to make it a sphere, compress it, and let it rip. He also states that it feels like your throwing up. Naruto than tries to do it in his Controlled Form, only to actually throw up, and The Eight Tail's says, He can only do it in the Tailed Beast form, and than tells him that he said all he wanted to say, and reverts Killer Bee to him self. |

The Eight-Tailed Giant Ox (八尾の巨牛, Hachibi no Kyogyū) is a tailed beast sealed within Killer Bee of Kumogakure.
Background
The Eight-Tails being sealed.
According to Madara Uchiha, the Eight-Tails came into being in the waning days of the Sage of the Six Paths' life; to prevent the Ten-Tailed Beast's resurgence, the Sage split up its chakra and used Izanagi to create nine separate, monstrous constructs of living chakra, which would become known as the tailed beasts.[2][3] The Eight-Tails eventually fell into the possession of Kumogakure.
However, its ferocity was so great, none of its former jinchūriki could control it. They would lose control and the Eight-Tails would go on a rampage and destroy the village, requiring the Third Raikage to form a special coalition to subdue it, extract it from its previous jinchūriki, and sealed it within a special pot. Many villagers lost their lives during these episodes and the Eight-Tails lost one of its four horns to A after the said horn pierced Motoi's father. It was ultimately sealed within Killer Bee, who was five at the time,[4] through the Iron Armor Seal. Bee would go on to tame and control the Eight-Tails through rigorous training within the Falls of Truth.
Appearance
The Eight-Tails resembles an ushi-oni with four long horns on its head, similar to that of a Jacob sheep. It also has a fifth horn like protrusion on its chin, which appears to have been damaged, much like its upper left horn, part of which was sliced off in battle by A. It has a muscular upper-body structure, with a hunched back similar to an American bison, arms with spiked protrusions on the elbows, and hands with opposable thumbs like that of a human. It has no hind-legs. Its tails consist of eight tentacles that resemble the cephalopod arms of an octopus, and according to Killer Bee, its tails will grow back in the event that they are sliced off. It is also extremely massive, large enough to stand equal in size with one of the mountains in the Valley of Clouds and Lightning.
Personality
Since Killer Bee is one of the few jinchūriki to gain control over his tailed beast, his relationship with the Eight-Tails is very relaxed. Where the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox constantly threatens its jinchūriki and must be either restrained or confined to be spoken to, Bee and the Eight-Tails can talk leisurely, with Killer Bee even sitting on top of its muzzle. However, Bee tends to annoy the Eight-Tails to comical effect. Before Bee learned to control it, the Eight-Tails was infamous to be wild, violent, and went on many rampages when its former jinchūriki would lose control over it.
Despite the Eight-Tails' friendly relationship with Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails' main goal, like the other beasts, is self preservation. For example, it was more than willing to be released and destroy Kisame Hoshigaki despite Sabu and Ponta being close by. However, behind the brutal appearance, the Eight-Tails is shown to have a good analytical ability, as it told Killer Bee that if he left Ponta and Sabu and run in the opposite direction Kisame and the water will follow him and they (Sabu and Ponta) will be free. The Eight-Tails mentioned that it used to be much more aggressive and violent but that Killer Bee changed it. It also said that it doesn't like the Nine-Tails but insisted that it was no reason for Bee to refuse helping Naruto take control over it, hinting a benevolent side.
Abilities
With its great supply of chakra, the Eight-Tails can fire massive chakra blasts. During Naruto's battle with the Nine-Tails within his subconscious, it was shown that the Eight-Tails had enough strength to temporarily restrain and contain a direct blast from the Nine-Tails.[5][6] However, despite its immense size, it does not endure the secondary effects of powerful attacks just as much as the Nine-Tails can, as Sasuke Uchiha's Chidori Sharp Spear and Amaterasu techniques proved effective against it. In continuation with its octopus theme, it can use ink.
Activity inside Killer Bee
Main article: Killer Bee's Jinchūriki Forms As the Eight-Tails' jinchūriki, Killer Bee can transform himself into the Eight-Tails and can access its high-level chakra without losing control, as Killer Bee is one of the three jinchūriki who has been known to be able to fully control his tailed beast's powers, the others being Yagura and Naruto Uzumaki. Killer Bee is also able to use the Eight-Tails to block his chakra to break illusions, even ones cast from a Mangekyō Sharingan.
Part II
Invasion of Pain Arc
The Eight-Tails versus Taka.
When Taka arrived at Kumogakure in an attempt to capture Killer Bee, he battled them to the point of annoyance. With his great control over his demon, Killer Bee transformed himself into the Eight-Tails, and proceeded to terrorize Taka. As the Eight-Tails attacked, Suigetsu commanded a wave of water, attempting to defeat it. The Eight-Tails understood that Suigetsu had the advantage given that they were surrounded by water, so it then charged a huge blast of chakra and fired it at Suigetsu, defeating him.
Later, Sasuke activated his Mangekyō Sharingan and released Amaterasu on the Eight-Tails and it fell into pain by its flames. As one of its tails was about to fall on Karin, Sasuke cut it with Chidori Sharp Spear. Killer Bee disguised himself as the cut part of the tail and escaped. Killer Bee was then seemingly captured by Taka and was given to Madara Uchiha. Killer Bee's brother, the Fourth Raikage, swore that Akatsuki would pay for what they had done.
It was later revealed that Killer Bee faked his capture. After Taka left, he and the Eight-Tails left the lake and Killer Bee took this opportunity to take a "vacation" from being a guardian. As the Eight-Tails commented that a new era is coming, Killer Bee thought it was going to be his singing career.
Five Kage Summit Arc
As Kisame attacked Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails demanded Bee to let him out. However, Bee reminded him that he would just kill Sabu and Ponta in the process of protecting itself. With this, Eight-Tails begrudgingly let Bee use the version 2 form, as well as giving Bee advice during the battle. However, as Kisame knocked Bee out, the Eight-Tails yelled at him to wake up, worried as both Bee and it were nearly out of chakra. Kisame then prepared to finish the battle as the Raikage arrived and helped Bee kill "Kisame".
Confining the Jinchūriki Arc
As Naruto Uzumaki and Yamato entered the Land of Lightning, in the Allied Shinobi Forces's efforts to keep the jinchūriki away from Akatsuki, they were attacked by a giant squid. Killer Bee, in his full Eight-Tails form, forced the squid back and saved the ship. Upon seeing it, Naruto realized that the Eight-Tails and Bee were the "octopus" he's been looking for to guide him to control the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. After Bee was done training with some bears in the forest, the Eight-Tails tried to convince Bee to train Naruto, stating that even though it wasn't fond of the Nine-Tails, it still thought Bee should train him since they are both jinchūriki.
He was than seen when, Killer Bee tried to teach Naruto about transforming into the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Jinchuriki's Ultimate Move, by transforming into his Tailed Beast. Naruto only got to a "Minor" version, only for a short while, than reverting back to his normal self. The Eight Tail's than discussed with Killer Bee, that the first thing a Jinchuriki learns, when they're transformed is the Menacing Ball which Naruto could not do, due to not being "Friends" with the Nine-Tails. He than asked Killer Bee, if he should tell Naruto about the Risk of his Controlled Form, telling him, that's they're a difference between their transformations, Killer Bee responded by, telling him to tell Naruto.
