This is not out of fear.
It was not the thrill of the heart that moved me.
Indeed, Kushina's body began to throb on its own.
She noticed the current situation even faster than her, the owner.
Deep within those moist eyes, there seemed to be a hidden expectation.
Perhaps the priestess gave Kushina some further hints and reminders before she left.
Or perhaps it was Kiyoshi's long-term companionship that quietly fostered this growth.
Her heart gradually fell on Kiyoshi.
Immediately, Qing Si lowered his head.
Chapter 367 Kushina's Guilt, Obtaining the Entry "Father of Fate"!
Meanwhile, the Nine-Tails inside her body immediately realized this was an excellent opportunity.
He can't see what's happening outside, but that doesn't stop him from causing trouble.
Kurama immediately released its chakra from the loosened seal.
The outward manifestation of this is that Kushina's eyeshadow is darker, and fox-like patterns appear on her face.
Nine-Tails... Chakra erupts!
"It's just the right time to obtain the Nine-Tails' chakra."
Kiyoshi gazed at Kushina's bloodshot eyes.
With this, he only has the last five and seven tails left, which he can then try to cultivate into a small ten-tailed beast.
There were still some branches left from the "Outer Path Golem," enough for Kiyoshi to conduct experiments and create a container.
After all, even a solid chakra like the "Susanoo" can be used as a substitute for the "Gedo Mazo".
Sasuke's final "Takemikazuchi Susanoo" absorbed all the chakra of the nine tailed beasts.
Of course, if the "Gedo Mazo" hadn't ended up in Kaguya Otsutsuki's alternate dimension, Sasuke might have tried to become the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki.
After all, this would bring about a qualitative difference, with a significant increase in both chakra reserves and recovery speed.
In the final battle of attrition, Naruto would not be able to outlast Sasuke.
laugh!
A flash of lightning appeared in Kiyoshi's palm, and he sliced off several tails that had sprouted from Kushina's body.
Kushina is currently enveloped in a layer of light red chakra, flowing like liquid with bubbles inside.
The moment the chakra tail fell off, Kiyoshi stored it inside a sealing scroll.
After completing his mission in the Land of Snow, Kiyoshi plans to head to Takigakure Village.
While obtaining the "Hero's Water", also get your hands on the Seven-Tails' chakra.
As for the Five-Tails, Kiyoshi plans to negotiate with Iwagakure, offering some benefits in exchange for sparring with the Jinchuriki to collect chakra.
Aside from Kiyoshi, few people knew the true value of this chakra.
Just like the Nine-Tails' chakra, it's not something that Naruto alone controls.
At the same time, there was also a young monk named Kong who mastered it.
They were simply using this chakra, not as fusion material for the Ten-Tails.
This is also normal.
If Black Zetsu hadn't leaked this information, perhaps no one in the entire ninja world would have known.
The Sage of Six Paths, who had been observing the workings of the ninja world, could not possibly have revealed the method of merging the nine tailed beasts into one.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to divide the Ten-Tails' chakra into nine parts back then, precisely to avoid the excessive power causing it to go out of control.
Kiyoshi's actions went unnoticed by Kushina.
Her mind was completely occupied by one thing.
Especially under the influence of the Nine-Tails' evil chakra, it became even more difficult for them to maintain their usual composure.
After a long time, they did not leave.
The chakra behind him transformed into several large hands, gripping Kiyoshi's back tightly.
At close range, Kushina also saw Kiyoshi's most frequently used summoning beast, "Unicorn..."
Such a terrifying spirit beast must be appeased.
Just like the evil spirit beasts in the Snow Country, once they are freed from restraint, they will reveal their true evil nature.
In particular, the greater the power, the deeper the evil they commit.
Ninjas often receive missions to suppress demons.
The Uzumaki clan stands out among them; their sealing techniques, besides the tailed beasts of the world, have sealed countless evil monsters similar to demons during the Warring States period.
Now, Kushina has encountered such a ferocious and terrifying summoning beast once again.
In order to avoid causing trouble and bringing disaster to the world.
Kushina instinctively carried out the suppression.
This is an instinct ingrained in the bones of the Uzumaki clan, and Kushina, who inherited the excellent bloodline of the Uzumaki clan, also has this instinctive duty.
She gradually used the special chakra within her body to seal it.
The fact that the Hidden Cloud Village once tried to kidnap her for her chakra shows just how extraordinary she was.
This special chakra is now being used on Kiyoshi's summoning beast.
In order to seal the summoned beast, a large amount of chakra must be extracted into the body.
Chakra flows through the meridian system and chakra points. To maximize its effectiveness, it must be close to the meridian system.
The meridian system is located within the flesh and blood, so there are many ways to access it.
Kushina is now using the most instinctive approach.
……
The next day.
The cold wind outside was blowing fiercely, lashing against the windowpanes.
The room is equipped with heating, so it is not only warm and comfortable, but also free from the cold outside.
Kushina unconsciously stretched and let out a soft moan.
Soon, as if she had remembered something, she turned her head to look at her side.
There was no one there.
Is it a dream?
Kushina thought to herself.
I thought last night was all a dream.
She lifted the covers and felt a strange sense of emptiness.
She doesn't usually sleep like this.
As she picked up the carelessly discarded clothes from the ground, she also caught a strange smell.
These things caused her to pause.
Isn't it a dream?
Kushina observed the surroundings and noticed that there was an extra layer of wooden planks on the wall.
Was this already here last night?
When Kushina pushed open the bathroom door, Kiyoshi's figure was right behind it.
Kiyoshi was still washing up when he saw Kushina wake up. He turned around and gave her a smile.
"woke up?"
Kiyoshi said.
"woke up."
Kushina was completely bewildered.
It really isn't a dream!
Kushina's heart skipped a beat, but she forced herself to remain calm and turned to walk to the bedside.
In that fleeting glimpse, she could also see the mirror behind Kiyoshi.
Her face in the mirror was rosy and radiant, as if she had received some kind of nourishment.
"What...what did I do to Kiyoshi?"
Kushina vaguely remembered that later on, the Nine-Tails' chakra within her seemed to go out of control.
Even though the priestess Miroku said that Seiji was her destined soulmate, such behavior was a bit excessive.
The age difference between the two is a given.
As the saying goes, "A woman three years older than her husband is like a golden brick."
How many gold bricks did Qing Si hold?
Would the Uchiha clan allow an old woman like her to be with Kiyoshi?
Kushina's mind was a mess.
But... I just can't seem to forget what happened last night.
Just recalling it made Kushina feel her body leap with joy.
This is the feeling of ease that comes from sweeping away years of accumulated dust.
At that moment, Kiyoshi came out of the bathroom.
He was wearing a white bathrobe, the outline of his muscles faintly visible.
With slow, leisurely steps, Kiyoshi approached Kushina.
He raised his hand and brushed his wet hair back, causing it to sizzle with steam.
The scorching "Fire" Release chakra easily dried Kiyoshi's hair.
"The wall is an extra layer of structure I added using Wood Release to prevent the Nine-Tails' chakra from erupting and affecting the outside world."
Qingsi said.
The "Wood" Release can absorb the chakra of tailed beasts and also suppress them.
The "Wood" Release was an important factor in Hashirama Senju's immense power.
With such a vast amount of chakra, he would be incredibly powerful whether he was a Buddha made of water, fire, or earth.
But none of them can compare to the Buddha made of wood.
This is a relationship of mutual restraint, just like the five elements of chakra, which are mutually generating and mutually restraining.
Sasuke was able to defeat Deidara because he had the advantage of using the Lightning Earth technique, which prevented Deidara from unleashing his full power.
"Am I... like this...?"
Kushina raised her head, as if to say something, but then suddenly lowered it again.
The reason for this is simple: it's to suppress her rampage.
"Sorry, I failed to control the Nine-Tails again."
Kushina offered a sincere apology.
She was filled with guilt.
If Kurama (the Nine-Tails) were to harm Kiyoshi, she would truly regret it for the rest of her life.
