"Kushina, have you been getting along well with the Nine-Tails recently?" Kazuki looked at Kushina with a smile and whispered: "Did that fox cause you any trouble?"
"Tell that kid, I didn't, I didn't!" The Nine-Tails hurriedly communicated with Kushina: "Help me, I don't want to meet this bastard!"
Kushina shook her head hesitantly, not because she listened to the Nine-Tails' advice, but because the Nine-Tails was indeed relatively stable recently.
Recently, the Nine-Tails didn't try to break the seal, but kept repeating the connection between Kazuki and Madara...
But Kushina couldn't say this to Kazuki.
As one of the few people who had seen Kazuki's rampage, after thinking about it for a period of time, combined with Hiruzen's attitude towards Kazuki, Kushina, Minato, and Jiraiya all had their own judgments.
It was a top secret. As long as they could avoid mentioning it, they wouldn't.
"Kazuki-kun, I get along with the Nine-Tails fairly well." Kushina replied cautiously. "What brings you here this time?"
Kazuki looked at Kushina with some surprise. The Nine-Tails would be so honest...
"I need to release some of the Nine-Tails' chakra and pretend that you've lost control over it, entering a state of rage." Kazuki said bluntly. "The war is about to break out. Now the village's plan is to show weakness to the enemy and give the enemy as much confidence as possible to attack."
"Show weakness to the enemy?" Kushina said confusedly: "Why should we let the enemy have such an idea?"
Kazuki smiled. "To unite our enemies into a single front and then crush them together, making them hesitate to face us again. Furthermore, we need them to dare to break the newly signed peace treaties, giving us the perfect justification for unrestricted retaliation."
"Unrestricted retaliation...?" Kushina repeated the words, feeling a chill run down her spine.
"Cooperate with me, it will be quick, relax your mind." Kazuki pointed to his eye sockets, signaling Kushina to look at him.
With some hesitation, Kushina raised her head, and the moment their eyes met, they were both transported into the space of the seal within her.
The Nine-Tailed Fox took a deep breath. It had tried its best to avoid Kazuki, but it was attacked at its doorstep.
"Long time no see, Nine-Tailed Fox." Kazuki smiled and waved to the fox. "I need to borrow some of your chakra, please cooperate."
Kazuki's eyes flashed red. Although his tone was very polite, his eyes looked down at the Nine-Tailed Fox, with a meaning that could not be refused.
The Kyubi watched him warily, carefully analyzing the strength of his dojutsu.
The fox suddenly widened his eyes and muttered in disbelief: "Something is wrong, something is wrong..."
"No wonder you look like Uchiha Madara!"
Ever since the bloodlines in Kazuki's body began to merge and Indra's chakra activated, his presence had changed.
The change was so profound that even the Kyubi felt a shudder in his essence, remembering past events.
The Nine-Tailed Fox had fought against Indra together with Asura and had a very deep memory of the eldest son of the Six Paths Sage.
The Nine-Tailed Fox stared at Kazuki.
Madara is the reincarnation of Indra's chakra...
But Kazuki no longer looks like the reincarnation of Indra's chakra, he is more like Indra himself resurrected!
[From the target Nine Tails you gain the special technique: Tailed Beast Ball!]
Kazuki blinked. "What's wrong? Did you already know me, Mr. Fox?"
"How could I not reco..." The Kyubi swallowed his words halfway, lost in a whirlwind of conflicting thoughts.
If Kazuki really was Indra, none of this would make sense.
Indra was cold and arrogant, while Kazuki was warm and radiant, complete opposites!
As someone who had been manipulated by both Madara and Kazuki, the Kyubi was particularly sensitive to differences in style.
What is going on?
The Kyubi fell into confusion...
If he didn't know that the Sage of Six Paths had been dead for centuries, the Nine-Tails would have thought that the old man had found a way to be reborn and given birth to a son who combined the character of Asura with the talent of Indra.
"How could I be like Uchiha Madara?" Kazuki replied with a carefree smile as he looked at the Nine-Tails. "That person is the Shura of the Shinobi World. I am still far behind him..."
Kazuki didn't know exactly what thoughts were going through the fox's mind, but watching his confused expression was quite entertaining.
Off to the side, Kushina watched the exchange between them curiously. The enigmatic words of both had left her completely lost.
The Kyubi took a deep breath. "What do you want me to do? Just tell me!"
"Ah?"
Kushina said very dissatisfiedly: "Why do you cooperate with Kazuki so much? I am obviously your container, and I have to listen to your nagging every day!"
The Nine-Tails twitched its ears in annoyance, ignoring Kushina's temperamental attitude.
Are you worthy of competing with Kazuki?
At present, in the eyes of the Kyubi, Kazuki's identity is at least at the level of Indra and Asura. Although he is still far from the peak of these two in terms of strength, his status is already there.
The Kyubi, whose brain is about to explode, just wants to complete Kazuki's task quickly, and then lie quietly like a fox for a while to figure out the truth of the matter.
"Thank you for your cooperation, Nine-Tails." Kazuki thanked him politely. "Then release your chakra, be aggressive, but remember not to hurt Kushina."
"I can't do it!" The Nine-Tails said in a muffled voice: "This seal will only be relaxed when the emotions of this container fluctuate violently. I can't invade it normally."
Kushina, with an awkward expression, nodded. "That's true, Kazuki."
"Do I try to alter my emotions?" Kushina asked as she frowned and tried to remember things that had irritated her recently.
"No need…" Kazuki slowly walked towards the bars that contained the Nine-Tails. With both hands, he began to gather chakra, placing them on the seal.
Moments later, the great door that symbolized the seal opened completely.
Kushina widened her eyes. "Kazuki, what are you doing?!"
But before Kushina could say anything else, Kazuki moved quickly. He stepped inside the bars and, with a movement of his ocular power, cut the chains that bound the Nine-Tails' limbs in the blink of an eye.
The surprised Kyubi stretched out its legs and let out a roar that echoed throughout the place.
Kushina's face turned pale, Kazuki even removed the last seal that Uzumaki Mito used to restrict the Nine-Tails...
The fox's eyes flashed with ferocity as he stared at the open seal gate, but Kazuki coughed lightly, interrupting his thoughts. He extended a hand towards him.
"This is our first cooperation. You help me release chakra, and I will help you feel more comfortable."
The Nine-Tails looked at Kazuki's outstretched hand. His breathing became heavier, and his gaze became increasingly complex.
The fox knew perfectly well that, although Kazuki seemed to have undone most of the seal, he could trap him again if he wanted to. With his ocular power, controlling him again would be a simple task.
But even so, Kazuki was still willing to cooperate with it...
The Kyubi stared at Kazuki. This could never be Indra's style.
But no matter what style it was, the Kyubi could not feel any malice in Kazuki.
"Hmph..."
The Kyubi snorted coldly and carefully handed his paw to Kazuki.
The human's hand and the fox's claw collided.
Kushina stared blankly at the obedient Nine-tailed.
Kazuki touched the Nine-Tails' claw.
Not to mention, the fur of this fox is quite smooth...
Not only is the fur smooth, it is a good-looking fox, and it seems to be very soft inside.
[From the Nine-Tails target: You gain some of the Nine-Tails' chakra!]
Tobirama, who was watching silently, sighed as he watched this scene.
Here it comes again, there is a new guest in Kazuki's body, even the Nine-tailed is involved...
If the Sage of Six Paths enters Kazuki's body one day, Tobirama thought he might not be too surprised.
"Come on, show your strength..." Kazuki said with a smile.
The Nine-Tails narrowed its eyes, and a torrent of fierce red chakra exploded out. Like an overflowing river, the chakra poured out through the crack in the seal.
Kushina pursed her lips, watching the scene warily.
If the Nine-Tails tried to unleash its fury, at least she would be prepared to react.
The Nine-Tails looked at her with contempt. That was the difference between being a mere vessel and someone like Kazuki.
...
In the outside world, the Nine-Tails' sudden and massive surge of chakra caused a stir throughout the entire Konoha village. The shinobi turned their heads in unison towards the direction where Kushina was located.
The Root members, following a rehearsed script, showed expressions of worry and anxiety as they ran towards the source of the chakra from all directions.
The shinobi from other villages, who had just emerged from the Forest of Death, stopped in surprise upon noticing the scene. Their minds were filled with speculation.
The Four-Tails and Five-Tails Jinchuriki of Iwagakure have already reached the stage where they can be used, and Kumogakure has even mastered the technique of perfect Jinchuriki. The shinobi of these two villages are very familiar with the Tailed Beast Chakra.
Combined with the impatient actions of these root shinobi, and the violent and wanton chakra...
A jonin from Iwa muttered: "As we thought, since Uzumaki Mito's death, Konoha has no one capable of controlling the Nine-Tails."
Omoi nodded. "In order to control the Eight-Tails, we in Kumogakure don't know how much effort we have made. How many companions have died over the years, and we have finally found a candidate who is one in a million..."
"And the Nine-Tails is more powerful than the Eight-Tails. In this short period of time after the replacement of the Jinchuriki, Konoha will never be able to control the power of the Nine-Tails..."
Another Iwa-nin snorted. "The Nine-Tails may be the strongest tailed beast, but so what?"
"Although our Iwagakure's Four-Tails and Five-Tails are not as powerful as the Nine-Tails, they can be used by the village."
