The Nine-Tails seemed to have thought of something; its massive body trembled slightly, and its eyes became complicated.
It sighed: "Alas...it seems...you want her to...meet my previous Jinchūriki."
Madara's lips curled into a playful smile: "Kushina Uzumaki? You mean that red-haired little pepper you were talking about? Pure Uzumaki bloodline... I'd really like to meet her."
Several years ago, because Naruto missed his mother, Minato told him many things about Kushina.
Madara overheard this while he was there, and since Hashirama's wife was also from the Uzumaki clan, Madara was quite eager to meet this member of the Uzumaki clan.
Minato nodded, then turned his gaze to Kurama apologetically: "Kurama, I'm afraid you'll have to suffer a bit later."
Nine-Tails lay resignedly on the ground, its massive tail sweeping weakly across the surface. It grumbled, "It's alright, come on. Anyway... it's not the first time."
"As long as that kid... can truly master the power sooner."
Although it complains about Madara, it has long harbored different feelings for Naruto, the kid it watched grow up.
Shuimen no longer hesitated.
He rapidly formed hand seals in front of his chest, his movements as swift as lightning, each seal pulsating with a sacred and powerful sealing force.
"Eight Trigrams Seal - Released!"
With a low shout from Minato, a huge Bagua diagram made of golden runes instantly lit up on the surface of the massive iron gate!
Immediately following was the indestructible iron gate that had imprisoned the Nine-Tails for over a decade.
It emitted a heavy, ancient "click...click...click..." sound!
The circular padlock located in the center of the iron gate was gradually released.
A massive, heart-pounding torrent of crimson chakra, a mixture of ferocity, heat, and the unique will of the Nine-Tails.
Like volcanic magma that had been suppressed for millions of years, it suddenly erupted from the gradually opening crack of the door!
It instantly filled the entire sealed space!
The temperature rose sharply, and the air felt like it was on fire!
The Nine-Tails let out a deep roar, a mixture of the release of power and the restlessness of its instincts being aroused!
Its enormous body began to expand uncontrollably, and crimson chakra rose from its surface like flames!
However, just as the iron gate was halfway open, and the surging Nine-Tails chakra was about to completely break free of its restraints!
Splash splash splash splash—! !!! !
Countless Vajra chains, radiating sacred majesty and composed purely of golden energy.
Without warning, as if they were alive, they suddenly burst out of the ground, walls, and even the void of the sealed space!
They moved with lightning speed, dodging the water gate and the spots with incredible precision.
Like a giant python hunting, it instantly coiled around the Nine-Tails' massive body, which had just gained some freedom and was surging with chakra!
The number of chains far exceeds that of when Naruto awakened!
They were layered upon layered, densely packed!
Some were deeply embedded in the joints of the nine-tailed fox's limbs, while others were wrapped around its thick neck.
More of them, like a net, tightly bound its body and tail!
The powerful sealing force on the chains, like the heaviest shackles, instantly suppressed the Nine-Tails' rampaging chakra.
The immense pulling force caused the Nine-Tails, which had just stood up, to collapse to the ground again without any resistance!
A spray of chakra water erupted everywhere!
"Fuck——!!!"
The Nine-Tailed Fox let out a deafening scream as its massive body was bound like a dumpling by countless golden chains, rendering it unable to move.
Only its head remained, barely able to lift itself, as it angrily glared at the spotted creature that had easily dodged the chains and landed safely beside the water gate.
"Old man!!! You treacherous bastard!!! What happened to sharing the hardships?! I was tied up and you ran away?!"
Madara, arms crossed, hovered in the air, his crimson kaleidoscope eyes watching Kurama's disheveled state with great interest.
A sneer, utterly undisguised, curled at the corner of his lips: "Difficulties? That's your difficulty. As for blessings..."
He paused, his gaze fixed on the depths of the iron gate: "Naturally, it's my turn to enjoy it. Be quiet, don't disturb the main character."
The Nine-Tails was trembling with rage. If it weren't for being tightly bound by chains, it would definitely have given Madara the biggest middle finger in the world!
Just then, a female voice, filled with astonishment, confusion, and a hint of disbelief trembled.
From deep within that half-open iron door, surging with crimson chakra, came a clear sound:
"Huh? Minato? Is that you? You're not... already..."
The sound stopped, as if they had seen the phantom of Minato in his soul form.
Immediately, the voice rose sharply, filled with vigilance and deeper doubt:
"Wait! Who...who are you?!"
The owner of the voice, carrying the fiery and stubborn aura unique to the Uzumaki clan, seemed to be slowly awakening from the depths of the seal.
"What did you do to my Minato?!"
Chapter 250 It was all caused by ridicule
Kushina's consciousness slumbers deep within the seal, like the last gate guarding the treasure.
When it was sensed that the Bagua seal had been largely broken.
She was instantly awakened when that familiar, violent, and scorching Nine-Tails chakra surged out like a burst dam!
Without the slightest hesitation, the instinct to protect the child overwhelmed everything!
Minato! What happened?! How could the seal be...?
No! Stick to plan! Minato will handle the reinforcement, and I'll handle... suppression!
She didn't even have time to investigate the specific situation outside.
The purest and most powerful sealing power belonging to the Uzumaki clan within his body erupted instantly!
Countless golden Vajra chains, purely formed from her will, exuding sacred majesty, were used to seal her.
Like the most loyal guardians, they disregarded the distance in space and shot out precisely from the depths of the sealed iron gate!
“Crash!!!!”
The sound of chains tearing through the air was sharp and piercing! They carried Kushina's anxiety and determination, their target clear—
Suppress that ferocious beast that is about to break free!
The chains seemed to have a life of their own, instantly binding, restraining, and suppressing!
The Nine-Tails, which had just poked half its body out and hadn't even had a chance to enjoy its freedom, was slammed down onto the water's surface in an extremely disheveled manner!
"Roar—! Kushina, you crazy woman! Let me go—!"
The Nine-Tailed Fox's roar was filled with shock, anger, and frustration. Its massive body struggled in vain, unable to budge the powerful chains that were restrained by its bloodline.
However, just as the chains successfully suppressed the Nine-Tails.
Kushina's senses finally penetrated the surging torrent of chakra, allowing her to see the scene within the sealed space.
This sight completely stunned her, her eyes widening instantly!
Is this... is this still the dark, damp sealed space she remembers, with only a huge iron gate and water?!
Before me was a huge, extremely spacious Japanese-style room with soft lighting!
The wooden floor was as smooth as a mirror, the walls were an elegant off-white, and there were even a few exquisite shoji doors.
In the center of the space, there was even a low table and several futons!
This setup...it looks just like the reception room of some important person!
What shocked her even more were the two people standing in front of the Nine-Tails, who was being tightly restrained by chains!
One of them was the figure she longed for day and night, a figure she knew to the very depths of her soul—Minato Namikaze!
With blonde hair and blue eyes, her gentle smile remained, but her figure was now a semi-transparent phantom of a soul.
Seeing that he was safe and sound, Kushina's tense nerves instantly relaxed.
But there was another person standing next to the water gate...
The man was tall and imposing, dressed in a dark, layered suit of armor with an antique style and a distinct Warring States period feel.
The armor was covered with subtle traces of battle, exuding an ancient and heavy aura.
His unruly black hair cascaded down to his waist, and his face was stern, with features as sharp as if carved by a knife and axe.
What's most striking is those eyes—
Crimson red like blood, with complex and eerie patterns slowly rotating inside, radiating a chilling coldness and oppressive aura!
And this level of oppression...
This seemingly innate, domineering aura...
A terrifying thought struck Kushina's mind like lightning!
The one who, back when she was at her weakest during childbirth, controlled the Nine-Tails to attack Konoha and kill her and Minato...
That mysterious person wearing the swirling mask?!
Overwhelming rage and protective instincts instantly overwhelmed Kushina's reason!
She even ignored the strange changes in the environment, her eyes only fixed on the Uchiha wearing Sengoku armor!
This caused her to be separated from Minato forever!
This caused Naruto to lose his parents at a young age!
They actually dare to show up inside the seal now?! Are they trying to harm Naruto?!
"Uchiha—!!! Prepare to die!!!"
Kushina's phantom soul instantly coalesced and took shape beside the massive body of the Nine-Tails that was being suppressed!
