Chapter 270 Nine-Tailed Fox: Danger
Chapter 270 Nine-Tailed Fox: Danger
Chakra is a truly amazing thing. Since it merged with the creatures of the ninja world, it represents life when alive and the soul when dead. It can transmit both abilities and emotions.
This is what the Nine-Tails sealed inside Naruto looks like.
At the beginning, Kurama was just a simple spectator. He watched Naruto grow up and was bullied by the inherently evil villagers of Konoha, and he spent a whole childhood watching Naruto grow up.
Similarly, Kurama also saw Isshiki Otsutsuki and Momoshiki Otsutsuki from the future.
Unlike the oblivious Naruto, Kurama clearly understood what these two beings meant.
Just because Uchiha Madara died doesn't mean it's safe or that no one is controlling it anymore.
Words can lie, but chakra cannot.
As the arrogant Kurama's heart gradually opened a crack, its perception of Naruto, the Jinchūriki, became more and more aligned.
Because the seal still exists, this overlap has become a "locked technique," and Kurama is now passively experiencing all of Naruto's feelings at all times.
This wouldn't normally be a big problem.
Even if Naruto gets injured during training, it's just a minor pain, and the Tailed Beasts' endurance means they won't care at all.
However, some other senses were synchronized in a way that was a bit excessive.
For example, just now, it was swallowed and kicked by a toad, and even stuffed with worms. The disgusting Nine-Tailed Fox couldn't stand it.
"I wasn't mistaken just now, the seal on half of my body has been broken, and it's nearby... What exactly happened?"
Inside the sealed space, after retching for a while, the Nine-Tailed Fox recalled what had just happened.
It sensed the other half of the Nine-Tails' chakra that should have been sealed away with the Fourth Hokage using the Reaper Death Seal.
However, since the two did not come into contact, not even between Jinchūriki, Kurama had no idea what was happening to the other half of itself.
This splitting into two is similar to a shadow clone.
The memory synchronization of the shadow clones must be achieved by disabling the shadow clones.
While Kurama was pondering, the two old toads, Fukasaku and Shima, had already dragged Naruto, who had been stuffed with the antidote worm, to the main hall to meet the Great Toad Sage.
"The Great Toad Sage once prophesied to Jiraiya that his disciple would change the ninja world. This is also his disciple. Great Toad Sage, please take a look and see if this child is the child of prophecy?"
Shima looked expectantly at the drowsy toad sage on the huge stone seat.
"Yes, I did have a dream just now..."
The Great Toad Sage spoke slowly.
"That's great! What did you dream about?"
Shima-sensei stared wide-eyed, holding his breath, afraid of mishearing something.
The dream of the Great Toad Immortal was actually a prophecy.
"This child will clear up the misunderstanding with Kurama and accept each other..."
The Great Toad Sage continued speaking, pausing three times in a row.
"Oh."
The Nine-Tails inside the sealed space scoffed at these words.
But then I thought about it again, and realized that even the Sage of Six Paths had believed the toad's prophecy...
Does it really intend to reconcile and cooperate with this blond-haired brat?
Forget it.
Having thought about this, Nine-Tails decided to stop thinking about it.
They come, the security.
Even if it does reconcile with Naruto in the future, let that future come to pass. It won't change its opinion of Naruto now because of this prophecy.
Thinking of this, Nine-Tailed Fox snorted coldly, lay down on the ground, and prepared to go to sleep.
"That's wonderful! He actually managed to reconcile with the Nine-Tails. This child truly seems to be the child of prophecy!"
"Yes, the child of prophecy that Jiraiya has been searching for for so long has finally appeared. It seems that the ninja world is about to have a major crisis."
Shima and Fukasaku exchanged a glance, overjoyed.
"The Great Toad Sage, and then what? Are there any further prophecies?"
Shima the Hermit looked expectantly at the Great Toad Hermit.
The Great Toad Sage remained unmoved, maintaining his leisurely speaking pace: "And then, this child and the Nine-Tails became husband and wife."
"Great! Naruto actually formed an alliance with Kurama... What?!?!"
The smile on Shima's face vanished instantly, replaced by shock, horror, and bewilderment.
"What?!"
The Nine-Tails inside the sealed space was also awakened.
What did it lead to?
Putting aside the fact that they are both human and possess a tailed beast, even if they were both human, they would both be male. How could they possibly become husband and wife?!
"Great Toad Sage, are you really suffering from dementia?"
The hermit asked cautiously.
—This is also what the Nine-Tails wants to say in the sealed space right now.
"It was just a dream...snoring."
After saying this, the Great Toad Sage fell into a deep sleep again.
In fact, it was just a dream that accidentally connected to the previously limited Tsukuyomi.
But for the toads of Mount Myōboku, the Great Toad Sage's dream was a prophecy.
At least until it is proven to be dementia, that is beyond doubt.
"So, between this kid and the Nine-Tails, who's the husband and who's the wife?"
Shima, the sage, dragged Naruto away from the main hall and asked his wife.
"Who knows, it's probably Naruto."
Fukasaku was still somewhat dazed and couldn't immediately process the shocking news, so he just casually replied.
Why?
"The Nine-Tails doesn't do that."
"That's true."
Their back-and-forth conversation was overheard by the Nine-Tails inside the sealed space.
The Nine-Tailed Fox was inside, writhing in a helpless rage.
What followed was a deep sense of unease and fear.
It's a raging nine-tailed fox, not a fox spirit, so how could it marry a brat like Naruto?
How will it stand up to the other tailed beasts in the future?
Why?
Why would that toad make such an outrageous prediction?
Having lived in the ninja world for a thousand years, Kurama (the Nine-Tails) knows very well that the more outrageous something seems, the more likely it is to be true.
Because you need logic to fabricate lies, but reality doesn't need logic.
Soon, Kurama thought of a possibility.
Inside the sealed space, Kurama kept watching Naruto, knowing that the person Naruto cared about most was Uchiha Sasuke.
If Naruto truly has a bond with someone, it must be Sasuke.
Even her first kiss was with Sasuke.
Why did it become that in the prophecy?
It must be because Naruto lacked the power to protect Sasuke, and Sasuke died, that Naruto turned his evil hands on this innocent tailed beast.
"No, I must help this kid protect Uchiha Sasuke and ensure their relationship, so that we can avoid this prophecy."
As expected of the wisest among the tailed beasts, Kurama quickly found the cause and a solution.
That night, Naruto woke up and, amidst the chaos, learned of Fukasaku's location from him.
Shima and Fukasaku also learned from Naruto that Jiraiya had been kidnapped by Orochimaru.
"Naruto, in order to rescue Jiraiya, we've decided to start teaching you Sage Mode tomorrow."
Master Shima placed a bowl of insect soup on the table.
