Chapter 283: The Appearance of Kushina Uzumaki…
The Nine-Tails' power was immense, but its temper was truly difficult to serve. This was why, no matter how dire the situation in Konoha was, the Tailed Beast had never been utilized…
Therefore, the jinchuriki's situation was also very awkward.
The previous two Nine-Tails jinchuriki had married well and could at least protect their own safety. Naruto Uzumaki was different…
A first-year elementary student at the Ninja Academy, with grades worse than that useless little brat Sasuke—could he be expected to protect himself?
The Nine-Tails was definitely not confident.
If it weren't for the pressures of life, who would be willing to humbly make a deal?
"Impossible!"
Itachi Uchiha shook his head abruptly, refusing the deal proposed by the Nine-Tails. "We cannot stake the village's safety on your verbal promise…"
"If this little brat is really captured by someone, and someone becomes the Ten-Tails' jinchuriki, do you know what that means?" The Nine-Tails' claw tapped the little blond boy on the ground as it said coldly, "That would be a catastrophe that destroys the ninja world!"
Even if it hadn't seen it with its own eyes!
It knew in its heart why the old man Hagoromo had separated their dwelling places. Even a figure as powerful as the old man did not dare to let the Ten-Tails appear in the world again!
"Say no more. There is no room for negotiation on this matter!" Itachi Uchiha still shook his head, but his gaze was fixed on the crow. "Kitahara, what are you doing?"
"Caw!"
Kitahara's claw tapped on the sealing formula. It looked at the Nine-Tails and asked, Is the summoning contract on you still active?
The Nine-Tails froze for a moment, then nodded with a grim expression. "…It is."
Back then, it had been forcibly signed into a summoning contract by Madara Uchiha and Obito Uchiha, becoming those two's summoned beast!
This was its dark history!
Kitahara pondered for a moment, then looked at the Nine-Tails, which was acting uncharacteristically well-behaved, and asked in surprise, "Caw?"
(Then are you willing to sign another summoning contract?)
The Nine-Tails felt its entire body go cold!
Can't we just talk properly? Why do you have to keep flogging a dead horse!
"I have already been sealed inside a jinchuriki, I cannot sign a summoning contract." The Nine-Tails shook its giant fox head, but it quickly added, "I can let the little blond brat borrow my chakra…"
"…Caw?"
Kitahara grew more curious. Is it that golden Kurama Mode?
The Nine-Tails bared its fangs and glared fiercely at the crow. "I didn't expect you to know so much…"
Kurama was its name, and the Tailed Beast modes combining the Nine-Tails and a jinchuriki were many and varied. Because it was the Tailed Beast closest to the Ten-Tails, its Tailed Beast modes were rather bizarre. It just never expected this crow to even know such a secret!
Kitahara glanced at the Nine-Tails, and injected its Yin-Yang Release chakra into the seal key, reinforcing the cage's seal. "Caw…"
(Your attitude seems to be a bit of a problem!)
The Nine-Tails' body trembled violently. "…"
Is this crow trying to humiliate me!
If you have a problem, just say it! Why are you reinforcing the jinchuriki's seal? Are you afraid I haven't been sealed long enough? If this goes on, I'll probably grow old and die with this Naruto Uzumaki!
The Nine-Tails glared at the crow, suppressing the rage in its chest, and said coldly, "Why don't you just kill me!"
Such a look of vowing to die rather than submit…
"Nine-Tails, I don't think you have that much integrity…" Itachi Uchiha couldn't help but smile as he looked at the Nine-Tails. "Do you think we'll fall for your reverse psychology?"
However, the next moment…
Before the Nine-Tails' widened eyes, and before Itachi Uchiha and Minato Namikaze on the ground could even stop it, the crow's claw abruptly tore open the sealing formula!
The sealing cage was unsealed in an instant!
And the moment the cage door opened, Kitahara's figure rapidly began to grow, transforming into its Karasu-Tengu form!
It looked at the rampaging Nine-Tails, abruptly shot out its arm, and slammed its claw onto the Nine-Tails' head!
"CAW!"
The crow's caw seemed as if it could shatter this sealing space. Its current size was already equal to the Nine-Tails, and its strength was enough to completely suppress it!
"The seal is broken! Even if you have the power to suppress it, you have no way to subdue it! Unless you can use the Four Symbols Seal…" The chakra soul of Minato Namikaze said nervously from the ground.
Even if Kitahara and Itachi Uchiha both possessed the power to counter the Nine-Tails, the two of them couldn't stay by Naruto's side every single moment!
Just as the two giant beasts were locked in a stalemate within the sealing space, a woman with a full head of red hair emerged from the broken sealing formula. She scanned everyone present and floated down to the side of Naruto Uzumaki and Minato Namikaze!
Itachi Uchiha's eyes narrowed slightly, his expression changing. "Hm? Auntie Kushina also left her chakra in the sealing space?"
This red-haired woman was really not to be trifled with!
"Nonsense! Of course I did!"
Kushina Uzumaki's chakra slapped Minato Namikaze on the shoulder, then revealed a motherly expression. "I haven't even had a proper chance to see my son!"
"Then we won't disturb your family of three's reunion for now…"
Itachi Uchiha looked at the emotional Naruto Uzumaki and sighed. "Kitahara and I will go deal with the Nine-Tails first…"
Even if Minato and Kushina were just chakra souls, they should be able to comfort the little fellow, right!
"Fine, fine, you two go and watch that fox. Don't let it interfere with us…" Kushina Uzumaki had always been broad-minded. Her eyes fell on Naruto Uzumaki, and tears streamed down her cheeks. "Has it already been this long?"
"Actually, it hasn't been that long. I've been watching Naruto grow up…" The chakra soul of Minato Namikaze, beside her, was a bit lacking in tact. "He's almost seven now. He's a pretty well-behaved and obedient kid…"
Because the condition for his chakra soul to appear was for someone to touch the seal, he had already appeared when Naruto was one year old. Coupled with the chakra in the seal being replenished by Kitahara, he had indeed been watching Naruto grow up all these years.
Although the little blond kid had no idea, it wasn't until recently that the father and son pair had met in the spiritual world's sealing space…
In contrast, the condition for Kushina's chakra to appear was more troublesome. Someone had to completely open the seal… That was the final insurance policy they, husband and wife, had set for Naruto Uzumaki. Kushina Uzumaki would assist Naruto in defeating the Nine-Tails.
Over here, the family of three was a picture of harmony. On the other side, the two giant beasts were beating each other's brains out!
"How naive. Do you think power can decide everything? As long as I am in this sealing space, I cannot die… Hahahaha…" The Nine-Tails laughed wildly, extending its sharp claws to block Kitahara's attack, and opened its mouth to condense a Tailed Beast Bomb!
Ordinary attacks probably wouldn't be of any use against this crow!
However, the Karasu-Tengu condensed its Tailed Beast Bomb even faster!
After all, in this ninja world, when it came to how to use Tailed Beast Bomb bombardment, probably no one was more skilled than Kitahara…
One after another, pitch-black Tailed Beast Bombs were continuously blasted onto the Nine-Tails' body!
The Nine-Tails looked at the scene before it, utterly perplexed. This terrifying sight was simply unheard of. Was this still the Tailed Beast Bomb, which required an extremely strict Yin-Yang ratio…
After using the Tailed Beast Bombs to stop the Nine-Tails' offensive, the Karasu-Tengu's arm shot out, grabbed the Nine-Tails by the neck, and threw the giant Tailed Beast back into its cage!
The Karasu-Tengu's crimson eyes stared coldly at the Tailed Beast in the cage. The chakra in its palm pulsed with light as it continuously drew the curse marks of the Four Symbols Seal…
It seemed to be extremely skilled in drawing this sealing jutsu!
The Nine-Tails finally recognized the current situation. Was that crow a devil? Since when could ninja animals also master sealing jutsu!
It beat me up, and then sealed me up again?
The giant orange beast swallowed hard, looked at the expressionless Karasu-Tengu, and extended its own claw to paw at the cage. "Wait, we can talk about this nicely…"
