"Whoa!!"

Shigaraki Tanuki bent down, and light shone from behind him, directly breaking through the clothes covering his body!

Shinki looked up and saw the strange patterns on the back of the Shigaraki Tanuki.

As expected, that's how Shigaraki Tanuki communicates with the Gozu Tennō, and the strange name he just called out is a creature created by the 'Gozu Tennō' project!

As Shinki predicted, things turned out exactly as he had.

Half a second later!

"Laugh!"

A giant beast's forepaw leaps out from the pattern on Shigaraki Tanuki's back!!

With a loud "BOOM!!", smoke erupted!

The entire monster was summoned by Shigaraki Tanuki!

The Shinki's eyes pierced through the smoke and saw the strange creature called 'Nue'.

It is thirty or forty meters tall, lying on the ground, with a Monkey's face, tiger-like limbs, a snake-like tail that wriggles, and a mouth at the tip of its tail!

Shinki: →_→

All I can say is that this monster's appearance perfectly matches Danzo's aesthetic standards; it's absolutely hideous.

A riot broke out in the Park immediately after the monster appeared.

The crowd screamed and scattered, some even forgetting their own children...

Shinki covered his face, his body floating in the air, and clapped his hands together. "Earth Release: Earth Style Wall Barrier!!"

"Click--!"

Dozens of Earth Style Walls rose from the ground, enveloping the enormous ye!

The Ye was not one to be trifled with. Seeing Shinki make a move, its snake-like tail opened its mouth and spat out dozens of small snakes!

"Shuashua--!"

The tiny snakes with tails scattered and rushed towards every pedestrian in the area, trying to drain their Chakra!

On the ground, Shigaraki Tanuki exclaimed excitedly, "Just a little more! A little more Nue and I can transform into my final form!"

"I'm going to turn Konoha into complete ruins! (ꐦ ಠ 皿ಠ)"

The words had barely left his mouth.

"Splash--!"

Blood rained down from the sky, soaking him completely and turning him into a blood-red figure!

Shigaraki Tanuki looked up in bewilderment and discovered that Nue's tail, which it used to absorb Chakra, had been severed by Shinki with Chakra Blade!

Shinki calmly said, "Shigaraki Tanuki, if you stop now, I might consider giving you a complete corpse. (*Ӧ)σ"

Shigaraki Tanuki immediately retorted, "Do you think I care about that kind of thing! From the moment I decided to activate 'Gozu Tennō,' I was already prepared to die! (*Ӧ)σ"

"Nue, absorb my Chakra too! Go berserk! ╰_╯" Shigaraki Tanuki roared arrogantly!

On the other side, the Nue, whose tail had just been cut off, looked at the Shinki warily, and then it heard the Shigaraki Tanuki's Zisha speech!

"Whoosh!!"

Countless small snakes sprang out from the severed end of his tail, ready to absorb the Chakra Shigaraki Tanuki!

At the same time, Shinki clasped his hands together!

Before Shinki could even utter the name of the move, the clever Nue began to contort its body, and a spatial vortex appeared on its surface!

"Whoosh!"

The spatial vortex quickly disappeared, and Nue ran away with Shigaraki Tanuki!

At the same time, Shinki murmured, "It really can communicate with Alternate Dimensions."

Immediately afterwards, the Tomoe in his left eye swirled, and his Dōjutsu activation!!

In Alternate Dimension.

Nue is a creature created by Shigaraki Tanuki using Hashirama Cells. Because Danzo intended it to be a biological weapon, it needed to be easy to carry.

Therefore, Shigaraki Tanuki developed the 'Gozu Tennō' Curse Mark by studying Space-Time Ninjutsu, sealing Nue into Alternate Dimension so that it could exist as Curse Mark —simple and convenient!

At this moment, Shinki successfully communicated with Nue's Alternate Dimension using his Dōjutsu and arrived here.

He instantly realized that this was where Nue lived; Nue's Chakra Breath could be felt in almost every corner.

"To actually be able to research something like this, Shigaraki Tanuki is quite a talent in a way." Shinki walked through this Alternate Dimension, following the Breath of Chakra to find Nue.

This Alternate Dimension is filled with giant trees and thick ropes. Not far away is an altar shaped like a tree root, from which Shinki 'Sai Chakra Breath can be sensed...

"The absorbed Chakra is connected to this place..."

After Shinki finished speaking, the sound of a giant beast running came from behind.

"Wood Release: Wood Release: Hotei Technique!"

Shinki clasped his hands together and shouted!

"Call!"

Several wooden hands emerged from the ground and firmly grasped the nue!

Shinki turned his head, looked at the struggling Nue, and grinned, "I didn't cut off your head just now because I wanted to spare your life. You don't really think you're so great, do you? (σ≧︎▽︎≦︎)σ."

Nue:(▼ヘ▼#)

Wipe!!

Being tricked feels worse than killing it!!

Just then, a whooshing sound came from behind the Shinki; it was obvious that it was Shigaraki Tanuki launching a sneak attack!

Shinki didn't even reply, but called out, "Aoki Takeru!"

Shadow Clone appeared and subdued Shigaraki Tanuki with a single grab!

After doing all this, Shinki looked at Shigaraki Tanuki's back and said, "Those with this Curse Mark can control Nue, right?"

Shigaraki Tanuki didn't answer, but snorted coldly and turned her head away!

Shinki cut to the chase. "If you help the village with your research, I might consider sparing your life."

Shigaraki Tanuki: "I am loyal to Danzo, I would never serve you! (ꐦ°᷄д°᷅)"

Shinki: "You're loyal to Danzo, but you should also know that Danzo, who craves power, also wants the best for Konoha. ┐(´-`)┌"

"Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your wife. She's just an ordinary person and shouldn't get involved in the Ninja's conflicts."

Shigaraki Tanuki continued stubbornly, "As my wife, he should understand my intentions."

Shinki: "And what about your daughter?"

At this moment, Shigaraki Tanuki's expression changed slightly: Σ(っ°Д °;)っ

Shinki continued his bluff, "You probably don't know your wife is pregnant, and it's a daughter."

"You wouldn't want your daughter to lose her father right after she's born, would you? And guess what I'll do to your wife and daughter after you die? ( ´▽` )"

Shigaraki Tanuki hesitated.

Shinki pressed his advantage, casting a Genjutsu spell on Danzo to show him the evil he had Danzo and the happy life he had enjoyed after serving him.

After doing all this, Shinki directly stripped the 'Gozu Tennō' Curse Mark off Shigaraki Tanuki's back and threw him into the Genjutsu Space to reflect on his actions.

Naruto and his friends arrived late at the Shinki Park.

"Hey, what's going on here?" Naruto asked, grabbing a pedestrian.

"It wasn't anything serious, just a Monkey- like monster appeared, and then the Sixth Generation disappeared along with it," a passerby replied casually, his expression excited. "It's been half a year, and the Lord Sixth is getting stronger and stronger! ୧⍢⃝୨"

After understanding the situation, Naruto scratched his head. "Monkey -like monster?"

Shikamaru stepped out from the crowd and patted Naruto on the shoulder. "Don't worry, you know how strong the Shinki is. (๑ت๑)"

As soon as Shikamaru finished speaking, Shinki emerged from the Alternate Dimension and appeared in front of Naruto.

Shikamaru: "Is it resolved?"

Shinki nodded and shook the hide in his hand, which was engraved with the Curse Mark of the Gozu Tennō.

Naruto:!!∑(°Д°ノ)ノ

"You... this... this is too cruel?!"

Shinki: "Don't worry, I've already healed him. 눈_눈"
