"This time, you did a good deed."
With that, Hagoromo removed his hand from the Chakra cocoon.
"What do you mean?" Sansan's cat face was full of confusion.
"The Seven-Tails has severed its own consciousness, and it's now inside this Chakra cocoon."
Hagoromo pointed to the Chakra in front of him and said.
At the last moment, the Seven-Tails Chōmei, abandoned his body, which was composed of Tailed Beast Chakra.
Following the absorption process of Sansan, they directly brought the soul of the Jinchūriki Fu into the Sacred Land.
The original idea was that anyone who tried to absorb this Chakra would be overwhelmed by the Chakra turbulence within.
Who would have thought that instead of absorbing it immediately, Sansan let it run its course?
Moreover, this Sacred Land was filled with barriers that even the Seven-Tails couldn't see through, making him afraid to move rashly.
Helpless, the Seven-Tails could only use the properties of its power to weave this Chakra cocoon, since Fu's soul would dissipate at any moment if it wasn't protected.
"Ah?"
Sansan turned his head and glanced at it; he never expected the Tailed Beasts to have such a trick up their sleeves.
"Sansan, do you have any way to protect the spirit?"
Hagoromo Yi stroked her chin and asked.
After communicating with the Seven-Tails, Hagoromo confirmed with the Seven-Tails that if they could protect Fu's spirit...
The Seven-Tails unconditionally discarded the Chakra that formed the cocoon, since it was originally just something cut out of the body.
In another part of his original body, he also possesses his own consciousness, and no matter what happens in the end, he can be resurrected through rebirth.
"Protect the spirit..."
Sansan then began to ponder, though she was unsure of its specific purpose.
But the Hagoromo mentioned it means he's useful.
"As for sorcery, I don't have any," Sansan said, shaking her head.
"You don't have sorcery, which means you have something else that can protect your spirit?"
Hagoromo glanced sideways, genuinely surprised that Sansan actually possessed such a thing.
"Don't you even know where you are? My clan's ancestors all returned here before they perished."
Sansan looked up and said disdainfully, this place could be considered his treasure.
Hagoromo rolled his eyes. He had explored the entire Sacred Land, and apart from the two trial grounds, the only place he hadn't entered was the shrine.
"Alright, if you have something like that, go and get it, otherwise you won't have a chance to absorb this Chakra."
Hagoromo waved her hand, signaling Sansan to fetch it.
"Meow! Why?!" Sansan immediately bristled.
"Since they can control this Chakra, if you don't give it to them, we can just part ways."
Hagoromo shrugged and said that although he was able to suppress it, there was something he wanted to do, and he needed the consciousness of the Seven-Tails.
Even if it's just a segmented piece.
"I understand." Sansan looked at the Chakra cocoon in front of her for a while before admitting defeat.
"Alright, you won't lose out. I don't believe this thing can only be used once." Hagoromo patted Sansan's head.
Sansan impatiently brushed aside and ran towards the shrine.
A moment later, it came to Hagoromo with a bead in its mouth.
"What is this?" Hagoromo took it with great curiosity. Things that can protect a spirit are very rare.
"Precious Pearl." Sansan San looked at the pearl with reluctance and said.
What a casual name.
"Alright, just pull the spirit in later."
Hagoromo stopped studying it; it was something she couldn't understand at the moment.
After saying that, Hagoromo raised his hand, and an extremely dense Yin Release Chakra appeared in his hand. Then, countless fine threads pierced into the Chakra cocoon.
Roar--
The Chakra cocoon roared once more, Seven-Tails Chōmei, slowly emerged from the Chakra cocoon beneath the silken threads in front of Hagoromo.
"Bring out the spirit you are protecting."
Hagoromo spoke directly, since Seven-Tails Chōmei could hear his conversation with Sansan, and he was too lazy to explain further.
Seven-Tails Chōmei looked at Hagoromo, then slowly nodded. Things had come to this point, and even it couldn't resist.
This guy in front of me, if he wants to, he can forget about detonating this Chakra cocoon.
It's better to just listen to him; perhaps Fu's spirit still has a chance.
"As for techniques involving spirits, I think you, being Tailed Beast, should be more familiar with them. It's not an easy matter."
Hagoromo raised her palm, and a few glints of light flashed on the precious pearl.
"It would be better to let her enter here first. You can feel the difference in this Sacred Land. A spirit will definitely benefit a lot if it stays here."
The Sacred Land of Sansan is imbued with Yokai Power; spirits here might even be able to transform themselves using that Yokai Power.
Seven-Tails nodded, while Hagoromo gestured to Sansan beside her.
The Demon Crest on Sansan Cat's face shone brightly, and the precious pearl floated up without any wind.
At this moment, the Seven-Tails' consciousness was filled with shock; this fluctuation...
Without further hesitation, the consciousness encased within the Chakra cocoon surfaced and was immediately absorbed by the orb.
Sansan leaped up, holding the pearl in his mouth, muttering to himself.
"What a huge loss!"
"Alright, I'll let you absorb all this Chakra in a bit." Hagoromo rubbed Sansan's head.
Turning to the consciousness of Seven-Tails Chōmei, he said, "Several pieces of Chakra that can sustain your consciousness. I'll take you somewhere in a bit."
This was what Hagoromo thought of when he saw the Seven-Tails' consciousness.
Since a portion of the Eight-Tails' consciousness has already entered Naruto's Sealing Space, adding the Seven-Tails' consciousness as well isn't out of the question.
Perhaps, before Madara Uchiha could activate the Infinite Tsukuyomi, Naruto's Sealing Space would already be able to gather Nine Tailed Beasts.
Even aside from the Nine-Tails, it's only a portion of their Chakra.
That's enough, since the Tailed Beast Chakra fragments allow Naruto to directly utilize the attributes of each Tailed Beast.
However, in order to master these powers, Naruto still needs to possess the Yang Power.
Alternatively, Hagoromo may be preparing to have Naruto deepen his Yang Release training, which should allow him to achieve some degree of control.
Even though he wondered what Hagoromo was trying to do, Seven-Tails Chōmei simply nodded, and then emitted a green light.
A sphere of Chakra appeared and landed in Hagoromo's palm.
Seeing that the Chakra ball was slightly dissipating, Hagoromo used Yin Release to cover the entire ball.
That's why it didn't dissipate again.
Sansan looked at the Chakra cocoon in front of her with a pained expression, even though its size hadn't changed.
However, in his perception, one-third of the Tailed Beast Chakra inside him had already been lost.
"Don't worry about it, this is much more than when you absorbed the Four-Tails."
Hagoromo shook her head helplessly. How could this cat be so greedy?
"Absorb it as soon as possible, and I'll compensate you by letting you eat as much as you want once more, how about that?"
Hagoromo raised an eyebrow and said.
"It's a deal!" Sansan quickly agreed, as such opportunities were rare.
