Kokuō (穆王, Kokuō), more commonly known as the Five-Tails (五尾, Gobi), is a tailed beast sealed within Han from Iwagakure. It has been captured, extracted, and sealed by Akatsuki.
In the anime, Kokuō is indicated to have been one of the two tailed
beasts that Akatsuki captured before the start of Part II. It was later
resealed into a resurrected Han during the Fourth Shinobi World War.[1]
The tailed beasts with the Sage of the Six Paths.
Kokuō first came into being in the waning days of the Sage of the Six Paths' life; to prevent the Ten-Tails' resurgence, the Sage split up its chakra and used his Creation of All Things (万物創造, Banbutsu Sōzō) ability to create nine separate constructs of living chakra, which would become known as the tailed beasts.
Some time after being created, the Sage sat down with all the young
tailed beasts and told them that they would always be together even when
separated, and that one day they would become one entity again with
different names as well as forms than they did then when the time came
for them to understand what true power was.[2][3] Kokuō eventually fell into the possession of Iwagakure and was sealed into Han.
Kokuō seems to be a quiet and reserved individual. Though it does not
speak much, when it does Kokuō uses the rather old-fashioned
'watakushi' (私) when referring to itself causing it to come across as
very polite.
Kokuō primarily resembles a white horse, but with a dolphin's head.
It has two pointed long horns and three shorter horns in front. The ends
of its horns, hooves, and tails are light brown, with some of the
same-coloured spots before the brown areas of its horns and hooves. It
also has red markings under its dark blue-green eyes. During the last
remaining days of the Sage of the Six Paths, Kokuō was much smaller than
it is now and its horns were also shorter.
Kokuō using the Tailed Beast Ball.
As a tailed beast, Kokuō has a great amount of chakra and is able to use it to create a Tailed Beast Ball. Kokuō uses its horns in combat, it has shown enough ramming-force to even injure Gyūki and knock it a considerable distance away.[4]
The remaining jinchūriki transform into their tailed beasts.
After Han's full transformation into Kokuō, he rammed into Gyūki and pushed it a considerable ways back. Seemingly rushing towards the shinobi to attack them again, Kokuō is restrained by Tobi.
As the chain wraps around its neck, Kokuō comments on the pain and
laments about being controlled in this manner, revealing that for an
instant it had broken free of Tobi's control and attempted to attack
him. Forced back into its submissive Version 2-like state, it begins to
attack the shinobi as commanded. After Son Gokū
is resealed into the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, Tobi, who is
intent on going all-out from this point on, forces Han to fully
transform into Kokuō.[5]
Preparing to attack the shinobi, Kokuō along with the other four beasts create Tailed Beast Balls. These attacks however, are deflected by Naruto and they are rebuffed
by a now fully-transformed Naruto. Wasting no time in their attacks,
Kokuō attempts to attack Gyūki again while it is preoccupied with Isobu.
The beast is however sent flying by Gyūki. With this, the opposing
beasts prepare a collaborative Tailed Beast Ball which is met by one
from Naruto and Kurama.
Kokuō, alongside the other jinchūriki and tailed beasts, encounters Naruto.
As Naruto enters a deeper plain of the tailed beasts' consciousness,
Kokuō introduces itself to Naruto. Later as the beast is freed from the chakra receiver it affirms Kurama's belief that Naruto was the person the Sage of the Six Paths had spoken about so long ago before being resealed into the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.
'Kokuō' (穆王) literally means 'respectful king'. This name probably comes from the name of the tenth-century-ʙᴄ Chinese King Mù of Zhōu (周穆王, Zhōu Mù Wáng). He's famous for the legend surrounding his visit to the sacred Kūnlún Mountains (崑崙, 昆仑山, Kūnlún Shān), where he visits the goddess Xī Wángmŭ (西王母, Queen Mother of the West)
so he can eat from her peaches of immortality. There is also an account
of the King being shown a human-shaped automaton — a completely
artificial, fully functional robot with internal organs and all. This
might tie into Han's appearance and abilities. In Japanese, the name
'穆王' is pronounced as 'bokuō', so the unusual 'kokuō' pronunciation used
for the beast's name was probably meant to bring the word 国王 (king) to
mind.
The kanji '穆' in Kokuō's name comes from the archaic adjective
'bokuboku' (穆穆), which means 'peaceful and lovely' or 'humble and
dignified' and are also traits often associated with horses and
dolphins.
According to Kishimoto's words from the second Naruto artbook, he tried to do a mix of a dolphin and a horse.
