Kyuubi's chakra erupted in a massive explosion.
It wasn't just a release of power—it was like an invisible force field, shoving the water away from its body and sending out a howling wind so powerful it ripped through the air.
And yet—
The girl was still there.
Naruto, watching from below, couldn't believe his eyes.
Sakiya was hanging onto Kyuubi's head, clutching a handful of fur in one hand.
The wind whipped her body around wildly, but despite the sheer force, she held on—just gripping a tuft of Kyuubi's fur like it was nothing.
And yet—
Kyuubi felt it.
A slight, stinging pain at the top of its head.
It winced.
Enough was enough.
With a deep growl, Kyuubi raised a claw, ready to swipe her off.
But just as it slashed downward—
She moved.
Sakiya leaped away, flipping in midair—
And landed directly on one of its tails.
Kyuubi's eye twitched.
"WHAT—?!"
It lashed its tail violently, trying to throw her off.
But she held on.
Kyuubi whipped its tail left.
She didn't budge.
It slammed its tail down into the water.
BANG!
A massive wave exploded from the impact.
But when the mist cleared—
Sakiya was gone.
Kyuubi blinked.
And then—
A small voice, right above its head:
"Yo~ I'm back!"
Kyuubi froze.
It slowly looked up.
There she was.
Back on its head.
Again.
Lying on its fur.
Like it was a damn couch.
Kyuubi's breath came in short, furious gasps.
This girl—
This human—
Was slipping away like a loach!
"DAMN BRAT!!!"
It had had enough.
If this annoying little pest wouldn't stop, then—
IT WOULD DESTROY EVERYTHING.
Kyuubi raised its nine massive tails, curling them into a circular formation above its head.
At the center of this ring of tails, a terrifying energy began to form.
A swirling mass of black and red chakra—
It pulsed with power.
The air vibrated.
The very water around Kyuubi twisted into a vortex from the sheer force of its energy.
And then—
The energy compressed.
A single, massive black sphere materialized above Kyuubi's head.
It grew rapidly—
Larger—
Larger—
Until it became a colossal, swirling mass of destruction, radiating raw, catastrophic power.
Naruto's face turned pale.
"S-Sakiya… I think… we really pissed it off this time."
Nine Tails laughed wildly.
"This time! Let's see you dodge, kid!"
But just as it was about to unleash its attack, Kyuubi suddenly felt something moving on its face.
It blinked.
Then, with its massive eyes, it saw Sakiya walking right up its nose, casually making her way to the highest point of its face—
Right where the massive Tailed Beast Bomb was forming.
Kyuubi's pupils shrank.
"What…?"
She was reaching for it.
Her tiny hand was inches away from the sphere of destruction.
But Kyuubi wasn't worried.
The Tailed Beast Bomb wasn't something that could be touched casually.
'Go ahead, brat,' Kyuubi thought, watching smugly. 'Try it. The second you get close, I'll detonate it.'
It wouldn't kill her—just blow her away.
Sakiya's fingertips got closer.
Ten inches.
Nine inches.
Eight inches…
Kyuubi suddenly felt uneasy.
Why was this taking so long?
Then, when her hand was just three inches away—
She suddenly tapped it.
Just a casual little knock.
And in the next instant—
CRACK.
The massive Tailed Beast Bomb—
SHATTERED.
Like fragile glass.
The deadly chakra sphere crumbled into nothing, dispersing in the air like scattered dust.
Kyuubi froze.
Then its expression twisted in rage.
"YOU—WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU?!"
Sakiya, still standing calmly on its nose, met its furious glare with a serious expression.
"I'm here to negotiate."
Kyuubi's eye twitched.
"Negotiate?!"
It snarled.
"You're still playing games with me!"
Fine.
If he couldn't deal with her directly—
Then he'd target the other one.
Kyuubi's lips curled into a grin.
"You're strong, I'll give you that. But tell me—"
His eyes shifted to Naruto.
"—can you protect him?"
Naruto's face went pale.
"Wait, what?! Why am I involved?!"
Before he could react, Kyuubi opened its mouth wide—
A blinding white light flashed as it fired a massive energy blast straight at Naruto!
Naruto's heart dropped.
Too fast!
He had no time to dodge—
But then—
BAM!
Sakiya's foot slammed down on Kyuubi's nose.
"GAH—!" Kyuubi howled in pain.
And before the blast could hit—
Sakiya moved.
Her small hand flicked forward.
With a casual swat, she redirected the deadly energy sphere—
Sending it flying away.
BOOM.
A deafening explosion erupted in the distance.
Naruto turned slowly, watching the massive shockwave tear through the water behind him.
He gulped.
"...That would've been me?!"
Meanwhile, Sakiya stood firm, looking pleased with herself.
Kyuubi, however, wasn't laughing anymore.
It stared at her, eyes darkening.
"Did you just… slap away my Tailed Beast Bomb?"
Its tone was no longer mocking.
It was cautious.
This girl—who was she?
Kyuubi's instincts screamed at him to be on guard.
And then—
Sakiya raised her fist and met his gaze.
"Kurama," she said firmly.
"I'm here to negotiate."
Kyuubi's eyes narrowed.
"Negotiate…?"
His fur bristled.
"And how the hell do you know my name?!"
Naruto looked uneasy.
"Sakiya… this is what you call negotiation?"
But Sakiya ignored him.
Her one uncovered eye—clear and sharp—locked onto Kyuubi.
"My Eye of Death sees through the very foundation of things. Seeing through something like a name? That's nothing special."
Her gaze remained steady.
"So, will you negotiate?"
She looked completely serious.
Kyuubi, on the other hand, was offended.
Negotiate?
After all this?
They had been trying to kill each other just moments ago!
The giant fox snarled.
His answer?
A Tailed Beast Bomb.
Without hesitation, Kyuubi fired.
A massive sphere of chakra erupted from his mouth, tearing through the water, carving a deep trench as it shot straight for Sakiya.
Naruto panicked.
"Sakiya!"
But she didn't flinch.
Arms crossed, she simply watched.
"It seems…" she murmured, her expression calm—
"…you're not willing to talk so easily."
The bomb was now just five meters away from her.
And at that moment—
Her left eye snapped open.
For an instant—
A strange black glow flickered across her gaze.
Then—
CRACK.
The enormous Tailed Beast Bomb shattered.
As if it had instantly crumbled to dust, breaking into dozens of rock-like fragments.
They fell harmlessly into the water below, sinking without a trace.
Sakiya hadn't moved an inch.
She had simply looked at it.
Kyuubi's breath hitched.
It couldn't believe it.
She was even more ridiculous than before.
Just now, she had at least touched his chakra.
This time?
She had erased his attack with nothing but a glance.
Kyuubi shook its head violently.
"What the hell is that?! What did you just do?!"
Sakiya didn't answer.
Instead, she stepped forward, a mysterious smile on her face.
"Now, Orange Flame Demon," she said smoothly, "I'll show you my special fox-taming technique."
Naruto blinked.
"…Wait. You have a special technique for foxes?!"
Kyuubi, meanwhile, was completely on edge.
This girl—
She was too strange.
Before he could react, Sakiya waved her hand.
And beneath her feet—
A massive glowing seal spread across the entire space.
Kyuubi's ears flattened.
What was this?
A barrier?
But before he could analyze it—
Sakiya's chakra exploded.
A violent surge erupted around her, sending shockwaves in all directions.
Naruto staggered back.
The sheer pressure of her energy made the air suffocating.
Even Kyuubi felt his paws sink into the ground.
And then—
The temperature rose.
The air shimmered with heat, and droplets of water hovered midair, defying gravity.
Kyuubi's pupils shrank.
This feeling—
This overwhelming chakra.
He had felt it before.
A long time ago—
When he had been controlled by that horrible man.
The one who crushed him with a single hand.
And now—
This girl in front of him felt the same.
Kyuubi, the mighty Nine-Tailed Beast—
Was afraid.
Sakiya tilted her head slightly, her red-glowing eye filled with amusement.
She smiled.
"You're going to behave, right?"
