Nine-Tails: How Did I End Up in a Prison Chat Group?

Naruto was in a daze for a moment, and asked with some confusion.

"Why?"

"I don't know." The Yugito Nii actually knew, but she could only say she didn't know for now. "You'll have to ask them yourselves. I'm just passing on a message."

"Alright, let's talk about it in a few days." Naruto didn't seem too concerned. "Some trouble will arise in a while, and I can't stop it, so don't rush in recklessly."

Upon hearing this, the Yugito Nii raised their heads. They thought to themselves, "This is strange. What kind of chaos can't he stop? Isn't he the biggest troublemaker in the Shinobi World?"

What is it?

"Relics from a hundred years ago, some things sealed by the ninjas of the past are about to come out." Naruto pretended to sigh, not wanting to tell Yugito Nii the truth.

That's too much trouble, and unnecessary.

Knowing more wouldn't bring her any real benefit, so it's better not to know. Anyway, Naruto plans to withdraw later, so he doesn't intend to explain too much.

For example, if something like Kaguya Otsutsuki or Uchiha Hikari were to break through the earth, it would be a catastrophe for the Shinobi World. But there will always be someone who steps forward, and the truth will be exposed to the public.

It's not good to get too involved. Anyway, it doesn't have much to do with the Yugito Nii. Just tell her not to rush in and die there.

While most people wouldn't die fighting Kaguya Otsutsuki, there are always unexpected events. For example, Neji is someone who gets killed by plot points as soon as he enters the battlefield.

Fortunately, Neji's body could no longer support him to continue being active on the battlefield. Even if another Shinobi World War were to break out, Neji would only be able to stay in the rear.

Ninjas have a strange constitution; what they perceive as crippled is probably the physique of a normal person. Neji's injury wasn't serious, but since he had injured his bones last time, he gave up the idea of personally going to the battlefield.

"Understood." The Yugito Nii nodded.

"By the way, Killer B is still imprisoned in Valley of Clouds and Lightning, right?"

"Yes," Yugito said hesitantly.

Before leaving, Naruto made a point of checking again and confirmed that Killer B was indeed still imprisoned in the Valley of Clouds and Lightning, even though he no longer had any ninja beasts inside him.

Perhaps the Fourth Raikage was worried about Killer B's safety, or perhaps he wanted to return the Tailed Beast to him after finding the Eight-Tails. In any case, the motive is no longer important.

Even though Killer B's current fighting power is no less than that of an ordinary Jonin, losing the Eight-Tails is like breaking his spine, making it impossible for him to live a second life.

This is related to the Raikage's training strategy for Killer B; the brotherhood in Kumogakure is so distorted. They value their brothers highly, yet they can't abandon the Tailed Beast.

Naruto did not comment on the actions of the Kumogakure. He was not a member of the Kumogakure and did not care about the Kumogakure Village's true attitude towards the Tailed Beast.

That day, the Yugito Nii found Samui and Mabui, and the three women were reunited. Firstly, they were all Kumogakure, which was awkward, and secondly, their jobs did not overlap.

On a circular platform in the Kumogakure, Yugito Nii leaned against the railing and spoke to the other two women.

"I've already sent the message, and he said he'll talk about it later."

"Alright." Mabui sighed, adjusted her suit skirt, and looked worried. "We don't have any other choice. We can't stay empty forever."

"Yes, and it's even more impossible to find someone else," Samui said. "Not to mention whether he would even be interested, we couldn't hide it from him anyway, and we wouldn't dare."

"There was no other way but to compromise. Why didn't we think that way back then?" Mabui sighed softly. "You were so smart, Yugito."

Yugito Nii remained silent. She was indeed a bit smarter; otherwise, she wouldn't have been chosen by that person. However, it wasn't something to be proud of. At that time, she chose to give everything simply because she had no other choice.

In contrast, Samui and Mabui didn't aspire to be Raikage like she did. Those two had almost no ambitions; they simply wanted to live and work peacefully.

What made them compromise was simply that, lacking that kind of need, it was better to compromise with Naruto. At least that would satisfy their needs, and if necessary, they could even have a child.

Yugito was also well aware that Mabui and Samui different from her, and that they were not without a way out.

"That kind of thing isn't fun; it's tiring."

"How could that be?" Mabui asked in surprise. "But I asked the married women in the village, and they said that you have to do that kind of thing early, otherwise it will only get less and less interesting."

On the afternoon of the second of the three days promised to Black Zetsu, Naruto finally arrived at Sunagakure, but he did not alert anyone. He simply stayed in the shadows, lurking in the darkness.

A petty person seeks revenge from morning till night.

He hadn't forgotten the time he'd kindly reminded them, only to almost be treated as an enemy by the Sand Village. Since the Sand didn't understand the rules, he could only offer a brief reiteration.

Kazekage Gaara, is not so easy to ambush. He is surrounded by a group of people, making it difficult for Naruto to find an opportunity to make a move.

Until the morning of the next day, Naruto had been squatting all night, saw Gaara walking alone towards the Kazekage Building, and he immediately perked up.

"The opportunity has arrived!"

Naruto quickly followed, Gaara seemed to sense something. Just as he turned around, the Four Symbols Seal came straight at him.

Without a fight, Gaara didn't have time to react and almost instantly passed out. Sand was about to overflow from the gourd on his back, but Naruto didn't even look and raised his hand to seal it.

Whatever it is, just seal it away.

He has now returned to simplicity, no longer using fancy Ninjutsu. Rasengan, Water Release, Wind Release —from now on, he only has two moves.

Sealing Jutsu, and Forbidden Jutsu.

When Kazekage of Gaara's disappearance spread throughout Sand, he had already successfully thrown Shukaku into the Evil God's Hound, ignoring Shukaku's wailing and throwing it directly into the Sealing Space.

One-Tail was still cursing in the Sealing Space prison when Shukaku suddenly heard two familiar voices.

"Fat raccoon, you came in too?"

Also?

Shukaku turned his head, only to see the Two-Tails Matatabi and the Eight-Tails Gyuki, and froze on the spot. His mind went completely blank for a moment, and he still couldn't figure it out.

What are you doing here?

"What do you think?" The Eight-Tails Gyuki pointed to the prison bars. "Did we come here voluntarily to serve our sentences?"

"That Naruto Uzumaki really deserves to die!" Shukaku, the One-Tail Shukaku, exhaled and said loudly, "Nobody knows he did it, and that brat from Sand just passed out."

"Then I advise you not to resist, lest you get beaten up again if you go out," Two-Tails warned.

"Why should I? He's just a mere human. I can easily defeat him with a flick of my finger!" Shukaku said proudly. "When I get serious, he's no match for me!"

"Then how did you get in, you big fat tanuki?" The Eight-Tails couldn't help but pour cold water on Shukaku. "I didn't even have a chance to fight back then. That guy's strength was already close to that of Hashirama Senju."

"How could that be!" Shukaku looked incredulous, but when he thought about how he hadn't had the strength to fight back at all, he immediately became obedient.

"Then what should we do?"

"I don't know, we can't get out at all, asking what to do is useless." The Eight-Tails Gyuki lay completely flat. "Instead of asking me, you should ask Matatabi."

"Don't ask me," said Two-Tails Matatabi. "Kurama is more familiar with Naruto Uzumaki, so you'll have to ask Kurama about this."

"Kurama is a dog, utterly shameless." Shukaku spat and then paced back and forth in the cell, dragging his pregnant belly.

"Let me think of something. I'm sure I can find a way. I don't just rely on Chakra when I fight; I also use my brain."

Seeing One-Tail Shukaku was showing off his wisdom again, Eight-Tails Gyuki said something.

What's the use of finding a way to win if you can't?

"Shut up! You bunch of idiots!" Shukaku snapped angrily.

Before long, Nine-Tails joined the cell chat group with a bewildered look on his face. He had been drinking his fine wine non-stop, completely immersed in the beautiful dream woven by alcohol.

Just as I was feeling blissfully ecstatic, snap, I was back in my familiar cell.

"Hmm?" The Nine-Tails fat boar, dragging its plump body and carrying a wine bottle, looked around. "Fat raccoon, what are you doing here?"

Shukaku, Matatabi, and Gyūki were also stunned. They had just finished speaking ill of Kurama, and the next second the other party walked right in. For a moment, Gyūki even thought that Kurama was preparing to take revenge on them.

"You're the fat one! You damned stinking fox! You're just as repulsive as that brat!" Shukaku cursed, "It's all your fault, you human lackey!"

"What nonsense! What kind of talk is this!" Although Nine-Tails didn't know why she was in jail, she couldn't care less about that for the time being; arguing was the priority.

"You're slandering me, don't you know that! You're the one who's a lackey of humans, yet you're on such good terms with them!" the Nine-Tails pig shouted. "I've always been sworn enemies of humans, and you dare to slander me?"

"Get out of here, you lackey!" Shukaku approached the cell, its paws resting on the bars. "We're in this state because of him, and you still have the nerve to mention it!"

"What's wrong? What does what Naruto Uzumaki did have to do with me, Kurama?" Nine-Tails said righteously. "Speaking of being dogs, you are the ones who are dogs to humans."

"I'm held in high esteem by humans, how could I possibly be compared to you collared dogs!"

"Dog? You're in here now too!" Shukaku, known for its sharp tongue, glared at Nine-Tails through gritted teeth. "Don't tell me you came in voluntarily!"

"What's it to you!" Nine-Tails retorted instinctively, but in his heart he was thinking, "Yeah, how did I end up here? Could it be that bastard sold me out?"

The more Nine-Tails thought about it, the more uneasy she felt, and she suddenly panicked.

"Heh, now you can't keep your mouth shut anymore, can you?" Shukaku said, turning to look at the two cells next to him, intending to incite Matatabi and Gyūki, "It was that stinky fox Kurama who sold us out, otherwise why wouldn't we even have a chance to resist? It's no coincidence at all!"

"You're asking for death, you damned raccoon!" The Nine-Tails fox revealed its true, ferocious nature.

"Afraid of you?!" Shukaku bared its claws in return. "Come on, I'm going to kill you!"

Kurama and Shukaku were already at odds, and now that they were cellmates, they were even more eager to tear the cell apart. Unfortunately, the cell, forged by the seal, was indestructible, and moreover, the skin of the Evil God's Hound was firmly locked onto them, preventing the two from using any of their abilities.

So, Kurama and Shukaku could only exchange trash talk through the prison bars.

~~

Naruto had no idea that the four people imprisoned in the Sealing Space would start arguing. He returned to Konohagakure first, and after washing up and resting, he followed the clues left by Black Zetsu to find him.

"You've probably heard the news. In short, I have the One-Tail, Eight-Tails, Two-Tails, and Nine-Tails." Naruto put his hands in his pockets. "I'm handing them over to you, and our deal is done."

"I know." Black Zetsu nodded. "Then... how will the Tailed Beast be transferred to me?"

"Just release them?" Naruto glanced at Black Zetsu. "Do you have a way to keep them under control? Four isn't a lot. I can teach you how."

"What?" Black Zetsu thought he really had a solution.

"First, take down One-Tail Shukaku! That guy has the most tricks up his sleeve, so remember to beat him to a pulp," Naruto explained earnestly.

"When fighting the Eight-Tails, you have to break its legs and cut off all its tentacles. The most troublesome one is the Nine-Tails. The Nine-Tails has a lot of tricks up its sleeve, but it's also the most difficult to deal with."

"The best approach is to beat him relentlessly. Don't hesitate even if he begs for mercy. You must beat Nine-Tails until he can't get up at all. Once he has no strength to release his Chakra, you've succeeded."

"Finally, there's the Two-Tails. The Two-Tails -Two-Tails is relatively weak. When it's about to spit a fireball, just punch it in the chin. You have to be ruthless and not hold back."

Did you hear me clearly?

Black Zetsu was completely dumbfounded. What was all this nonsense? He was going to take on four Tailed Beasts by himself? How was that even possible? Was Naruto Uzumaki out of his mind?

"Don't let it go!"

"How am I supposed to give them to you?" Naruto asked impatiently. "Are you going to give them to you one by one? How long will that take? Can you hurry up?"

Black Zetsu suppressed his grumbling and spoke.

"There'll always be a way. Let's get rid of the Two-Tails first."

After several days of back and forth, Naruto and Black Zetsu finally finished their separation. The four Tailed Beasts were gradually transferred to Black Zetsu in the form of Chakra, and the two of them barely rested.

Once things had settled down, Naruto quickly returned to Konohagakure and slept soundly until dawn.

As for the Nine-Tails, he didn't think much of it. There was no question of betrayal; the relationship between the two was based on mutual interests and other factors. Besides, the Nine-Tails wouldn't die.

To revive Otsutsuki, we need all Nine Tailed Beasts, so there's nothing we can do about it.

Once everything is over, the Nine-Tails will reappear, but it will essentially be like it's taken another nap. When it wakes up, it will be a new beginning.

Naruto slept soundly for another day, and by the time he had washed up and eaten, it was completely dark.

He stood in the empty house, looking at the dark night, and couldn't help but feel a little lonely. He wasn't exactly alone, yet he was often by himself.

It's all because I've gotten involved in too many messy things, and many times I have to do things alone.

"It's almost over. Everything will be over soon." He muttered to himself. "It's okay, just wait a little longer, until Kaguya Otsutsuki is resurrected."

"Damn the Otsutsuki Clan. You're going to get what's coming to you."
