Arrogant Little Fox~

"Hmph!"

"Don't even think about it!"

Kurama turned his back as if sulking.

He suddenly realized his carefully crafted persona had completely crumbled.

Fine, let it be then. I can't beat him, and I can't out-talk him.

"Later. You think about it carefully."

"Naruto is my student. I quite like the kid."

"Don't interfere with his chakra anymore."

Without waiting for Kurama to reply.

Cangwu continued, "I think, before long... you'll probably awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan."

"I don't want to control you, to force you."

"If you cooperate, maybe in the future there'll be a way for you to come out in a different form?"

Cangwu's words deeply shook Kurama.

He could naturally feel that Cangwu's words held no falsehood.

That faint, unchanging goodwill also felt foreign to him.

Goodwill towards a Tailed Beast?

"Humans are full of lies."

"When you actually get the Mangekyo Sharingan, you'll probably still try to control me first."

Seeing Kurama acting tsundere despite sensing no malice.

Cangwu smiled.

It seems the shock wasn't enough.

"Let me think..."

"Then I'll put it simply."

"Thousands of years ago, on a certain day, two aliens came to plant a tree... In the end, Kaguya Otsutsuki ate the God Tree Fruit."

"To prevent retaliation from the Otsutsuki clan."

"She began mass-producing White Zetsu."

"The two most special White Zetsu she created, her two sons, betrayed her because of some toad's words and the concept of love and affection."

Kurama's brow furrowed.

He felt a sense of familiarity.

But it also seemed different from his understanding.

Wait!

How long has this guy been alive?

Why does he know all this?

"In the end, Kaguya was sealed, and the Ten-Tails was split into nine parts."

Oh no, I actually understand this!

What he's saying is true...

Cangwu's lips curved slightly. "Here, hahaha, here comes the chakra~"

"Shukaku gets one, Kurama gets one, Matatabi gets one, Kurama gets another one..."

Kurama: "..."

So it is about that old Six Paths geezer.

Cangwu's words made Kurama unable to maintain his calm facade any longer.

But still, being praised again...

While Kurama was shocked, he couldn't help but want to give a thumbs-up: You know so much, you have such good taste. I am the leader of the Tailed Beasts.

Among the nine Tailed Beasts, I am the strongest.

The great fox couldn't hide his thoughts.

As expected, Cangwu saw the joy appearing in his eyes at a glance.

Then, his tone shifted.

"You are indeed strong, it's just... alas~"

"Just what?!"

"Why are you sighing?!"

The Nine-Tails glared, saying with some displeasure.

"You've all forgotten to maintain your personas."

Cangwu shook his head and sighed.

"You're already so strong, let alone the Ten-Tails?"

"As far as I know, the Ten-Tails will be revived before long."

"At that time, not only you, but all the other eight Tailed Beasts will turn back into nourishment."

The Nine-Tails, which had been feeling a bit smug about being called the strongest, immediately put on a long face upon hearing this.

"How is that possible?!"

"How is it impossible?"

Cangwu's rhetorical question left the Nine-Tails completely silent.

Cangwu's lips curved slightly. "Alright, that's about all for today."

"My abilities are inconvenient to display, and besides... I'm afraid you're too petty."

"Who's petty?!" the Nine-Tails roared.

Hummm--

The next instant, Cangwu transformed into a golden light and instantly appeared before the sealing gate.

"You... are you going to leave me behind forever?!"

The Nine-Tails' pupils contracted.

When watching through Naruto's perspective, it didn't feel like much.

But seeing it with his own eyes, the visual impact of such speed was immense.

"It's not the Flying Thunder God Technique."

"If we're talking about a single straight line, it's close."

"However, my 'Kekkei Genkai' is stronger; it's not just speed, but also possesses equivalent attack power."

"Speed is strength."

Cangwu patted the sealing gate and chuckled, "Trust me, maybe I can really let you out to play someday."

"The prerequisite is that you cooperate well."

"You should understand the stakes."

Seeing that the Nine-Tails was about to act coy again.

Cangwu directly blocked its retreat with a single sentence.

"Even the Ten-Tails cannot ignore the control of the Sage Eye."

"Although you, as the leader of the Tailed Beasts, are strong, even the Ten-Tails can hardly escape... have you forgotten the days of being dominated by eyes?"

"Also, Madara Uchiha didn't die the day you were sealed. After biting off a piece of Hashirama Senju's flesh, the Senju and Uchiha combined to obtain Shinra Tensei."

Cangwu landed on the ground, not planning to remove the seal yet.

Upon hearing this, all nine of the Nine-Tails' tails stood on end.

Half was joy, half was anger.

It opened its mouth, but in the end, it couldn't say anything.

"What is Shinra Tensei?"

"You should know Indra and Asura, right?" Cangwu said.

"The Sage of Six Paths' two sons?" the Nine-Tails replied subconsciously.

"That's right, the battles between these two have never stopped."

"They keep reincarnating... logically speaking, the chakra of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, as well as the chakra of Naruto and Sasuke... you should be able to sense their shadows, right?"

The Nine-Tails was silent for a long time, somewhat shocked by this revelation.

Suddenly, it let out a sneer.

"Don't you understand everything?"

"I'm not familiar with them!"

Cangwu: "..."

Fine, fine, you want to play it this way?

"Then continue being stubborn. You'll be in trouble when Madara Uchiha revives."

"He obtained Shinra Tensei in his old age, awakened the Rinnegan, and with only the Ten-Tails left, he'll reach the Six Paths level."

"You couldn't withstand the Mangekyo Sharingan for even a second, let alone the Rinnegan?"

"Sink into the world of genjutsu, you pitiful little fox~"

"Hmph!" Nine-Tails snorted coldly, somewhat exasperated.

"The seal has loosened, and it's normal for my chakra to overflow since there's so much of it!"

The implication was that it reluctantly agreed not to interfere with Naruto.

"No wonder this brat is even more naive and foolish than his mother; so he's the reincarnation of Asura."

Nine-Tails muttered.

"Pfft~"

"What are you laughing at?" Although Nine-Tails didn't know what Cangwu was laughing about, it always felt like he was thinking of something bad.

"Right, right, right, a naive and foolish sweet idiot who can still pin you to the ground before dying."

Nine-Tails: "..."

"It doesn't feel good being split in two, does it?"

"When the time comes, I'll help you become whole again."

"Later, later, you scummy fox."

Hummm--

The next moment, Cangwu vanished without giving Nine-Tails a chance to speak.

Damn Cangwu!

Running off after stirring up trouble, huh?!

Nine-Tails roared.

A moment later, it slumped back onto the ground.

I'll wait. I've waited for so many years anyway... I hope you're not lying to me.

It knew that even if Cangwu was lying, there was nothing it could do.

If, as he said, it didn't cooperate, it would have to live in a world of illusions again in the future.

"Foolish brat... you've certainly found a good teacher."

"Hmph... I'm a bit sleepy, time for a nap."

If you find this book good, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you don't lose it next time.
