Turtle Island, the white Spirit House.
Naruko, who had already mastered the Rasengan and Tailed Beast Chakra mode with great proficiency.
Began the next stage of her training.
"Next, imagine the form of a Tailed Beast and perform the Tailed Beast Transformation."
The Eight-Tails demanded.
"Woooooah~~~!!"
Naruko formed hand seals and did as the Eight-Tails instructed.
The next second.
Naruko transformed into a fox girl with fox ears and nine tails.
After transforming into this appearance, Naruko plopped down onto the ground.
"I'm so tired..."
"You can't do it... What a pity. It's because you haven't truly become friends with the Nine-Tails... The Tailed Beast Transformation failed..."
Eight-Tails: Gyuki shook his head.
"Then why can Gaara do it?"
Naruko swayed her nine fluffy fox tails and lay on the ground.
"Whew... I'm exhausted... This training uses up a lot of Chakra..."
Gaara and Shukaku hadn't become friends either, so why could Shukaku come out?
"Because that kid Gaara's seal is different from yours, mine, and everyone else's! Sunagakure uses a Possession Ninjutsu, not an ordinary seal!"
"Oh..."
Naruko blinked, still not understanding very well.
"Then you can only give up on training the Tailed Beast Ball..."
The Eight-Tails shook his head regretfully.
"Tailed Beast Ball...?"
According to Eight-Tails: Gyuki's explanation.
Naruko now needed to be able to use the Tailed Beast Ball technique at will.
"After performing Shape Transformation on your Chakra, accumulate and compress it in your mouth, then fire it out..."
The Eight-Tails explained.
"So it feels like vomiting..."
"Exactly that..."
Naruko recalled the Tailed Beast Ball.
She had seen it before, but no one had told her its exact name.
"Then I'll maintain this mode and give it a try!"
Naruko brought her hands together, and golden Chakra wrapped around her entire body.
Nine-Tails Chakra mode!
