Chapter 109. You'll Regret This!
Kushina Uzumaki had manifested her fifth tail.
Kushina Uzumaki, who had just regained consciousness briefly, lost it once more.
Kushina Uzumaki was forcibly dragged back into the consciousness space. The powerful force of the Nine - Tailed Fox sent her, still chained, flying through the air.
Kushina Uzumaki had manifested her sixth tail. Even though she was tightly wrapped in Kamishiro's Iron Sand, the powerful force allowed her to easily break free from it with her arms. Then, with one punch each, she sent Obito and Kakashi flying away.
At the same time, she lashed out with her six tails, instantly smashing Kanna to pieces. Kanna turned into a pile of parts and fell to the ground.
Kamishiro looked at the disassembled Kanna and was heart - broken. "I just upgraded her recently! Is she really that flimsy?!"
When Kamishiro saw the Out of Control Kushina Uzumaki about to stab Minato Namikaze with her sharp fingernails, he quickly used Iron Sand to cover her hand.
Kushina Uzumaki's hand hit Minato Namikaze's abdomen.
Minato Namikaze spat out blood and flew backwards.
If it weren't for Kamishiro using Iron Sand to cover Kushina Uzumaki's hand to increase the area of force, Minato Namikaze's abdomen would definitely have been pierced through.
Moreover, even though his abdomen wasn't pierced through, being hit like this broke several of Minato Namikaze's ribs. His injuries worsened, and he spat out blood uncontrollably.
What was even more troublesome was that Minato Namikaze was knocked flying, which made it impossible for him to continue using the sealing technique to maintain the Four Symbols Seal within Kushina Uzumaki's body.
Kushina Uzumaki was about to manifest her seventh tail.
Minato Namikaze shouted at Kamishiro, "Kamishiro! Use your Iron Sand to confine Kushina!"
"I can't confine her!"
Even though Kamishiro said so, he once again used Magnet Release to manipulate the Iron Sand and shape it into a triangular prism to confine Kushina Uzumaki within.
A Flying Thunder God Kunai was stabbed into the Iron Sand Triangular Prism. Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique and instantly appeared in front of the Iron Sand Triangular Prism. He pressed his hands against it and continued to use the sealing technique. While helping to reinforce the Iron Sand, he maintained the Four Symbols Seal within Kushina Uzumaki's body.
In the consciousness space, upon seeing the severely injured Minato Namikaze, Kushina Uzumaki cried out, "That's enough, Minato! Run away! Get out of here quickly!"
As if he had heard her, Minato Namikaze gasped and murmured, "I won't... leave. I definitely won't!"
Kushina Uzumaki's head had emerged from Kamishiro's Iron Sand Triangular Prism. She roared at Minato Namikaze, "Take your hands off the seal! This jinchuriki is mine! It's none of your business!"
Even though he was severely injured, Minato Namikaze's tone remained firm. "No! It does matter. I can feel it... Kushina has always had me in her heart!"
Kushina Uzumaki, whose body had been taken over by the consciousness of the Nine-Tailed Fox and now had seven tails, had her power further enhanced. Even with Minato Namikaze's sealing technique in effect, the right hand of Kushina Uzumaki still protruded an Iron Sand Triangular Prism, angrily performing a Fist Slam towards Minato Namikaze's head.
Meanwhile, the Nine-Tailed Fox's tails protruded from the Iron Sand Triangular Prism and swept across Kamishiro's abdomen.
Kamishiro's eyes widened in shock, bloodshot and on the verge of popping out. He spat out a large mouthful of blood and was sent flying backwards.
"Kamishiro!"
Obito and Kakashi, who had been punched away by the out-of-control Kushina Uzumaki and couldn't get up from the ground, exclaimed when they saw Kamishiro flying out as well.
Due to Kamishiro's injury, the Iron Sand Triangular Prism began to disintegrate.
Kamishiro was utterly stunned. Can't we just play nice first, let the Nine-Tailed Fox drop its guard, and then pull a sneaky move to seal it?
Did they really have to go all out like this?
If that punch landed, Minato Namikaze's head would surely be gone.
If Minato Namikaze died, it would be their turn next.
Screw it!
Lying on the ground, Kamishiro spat out the blood in his mouth. Gritting his teeth against the excruciating pain, he shouted, "If you land that punch, you'll definitely regret it, Kurama!"
Kushina Uzumaki, whose body was possessed by the Nine-Tailed Fox, stopped her fist in mid-air and turned to look at Kamishiro in disbelief.
Due to the Nine-Tailed Fox's distraction, Minato Namikaze's chakra resonated with Kushina Uzumaki's chakra and entered the consciousness space.
Inside the consciousness space.
Minato Namikaze saw Kushina Uzumaki and the Nine-Tailed Fox, which was condensing a Tailed Beast Ball.
Kushina Uzumaki, watching Minato Namikaze descend like a savior, recalled Mito Uzumaki's words once again.
'We are here as containers for the Nine-Tailed Fox. But before that, go find your love and fill that container with it! That way, even if you become a container for the Nine-Tailed Fox and live as a jinchuriki, you can still lead a happy life.'
Minato Namikaze had already formed a Ball in his hand.
Kushina Uzumaki also came to her senses and formed hand seals.
The chains that were broken by the Nine-Tailed Fox tightly bound it once more.
The Nine-Tailed Fox snapped out of its daze. Despite all the doubts in its mind, it had to deal with the situation at hand first.
Minato Namikaze nosedived towards it from the air with the Ball in hand, while the Nine-Tailed Fox wanted to continue condensing the Tailed Beast Ball until it was fully formed.
But Kushina Uzumaki exerted more force, tightening the chains around the Nine-Tailed Fox, especially the one around its neck, preventing it from continuing to condense the Tailed Beast Ball.
The half - formed Tailed Beast Ball showed signs of collapsing.
Minato Namikaze was already within reach of the Nine - Tailed Fox. Having no other choice, the Nine-Tailed Fox spat out this extremely weakened Tailed Beast Ball from its mouth.
"So! I will never hand Kushina... over to you!"
Minato Namikaze's Ball collided with the Nine - Tailed Fox's Tailed Beast Ball.
In a setsuna, the white light from the explosion filled the entire consciousness space.
Minato Namikaze's consciousness was forcibly ejected from the consciousness space. He collapsed to the ground, his eyelids drooping as he looked at Kushina Uzumaki.
Kushina Uzumaki stood there in a daze. The next second, all the Tailed Beast chakra on Kushina Uzumaki dissipated, and she returned to her original appearance.
Kushina Uzumaki collapsed to the ground and fainted.
Relieved, Minato Namikaze also couldn't hold on and fainted.
Several of Kamishiro's ribs were broken after being hit by Kushina Uzumaki's tail. Now that he saw Kushina Uzumaki return to normal, Kamishiro simply rolled his eyes and fainted.
Kakashi and Obito crawled towards Minato Namikaze and Kamishiro respectively.
Seeing that Kamishiro's mouth still oozed blood from time to time, Obito was very panicked: "Kakashi, what should we do? Kamishiro doesn't look well."
"Teacher Minato's condition is also very bad..."
Kakashi stood up shakily: "We, we must find someone quickly..."
Just at that setsuna, a tall figure appeared behind Kakashi.
Seeing this figure, Kakashi and Obito were overjoyed: "Lord Jiraiya..."
"Obito! Kakashi! I've brought people!"
Rin Nohara arrived here with a group of ninjas following behind her.
Jiraiya looked seriously at the unconscious Minato Namikaze, Kushina Uzumaki, and Kamishiro, and said to Kakashi and Obito: "You've worked hard. Leave the rest to us."
