Bai Ye relied on the Sharingan's powerful ocular prowess to enter the seal space inside Kushina's body.
At that moment, terrifying Chakra erupted from the Nine-Tails and surged toward Kushina, who stood before the cage door.
Kushina had already lost consciousness under the onslaught of the rampaging Chakra.
"Who's there!? Who is it?!"
Just then, the Nine-Tails seemed to sense something and roared.
"Are you the Nine-Tails?"
Bai Ye walked over and looked at the enormous Nine-Tails.
The Nine-Tails, the strongest of the Nine Tailed Beasts.
Ever since it had been sealed inside Kushina, the Nine-Tails had been looking for a chance to break free.
Today, while Kushina was out enjoying herself in Konoha, the Nine-Tails seized its opportunity and began attacking the seal with its Chakra.
Countless streams of the Nine-Tails' Chakra poured out of the seal and flowed into Kushina's body.
Kushina lost consciousness at once and went berserk.
The Nine-Tails could definitely break through the seal and regain its freedom if it kept up the attack.
But just then, a figure suddenly appeared and interrupted it.
"It's you!? Those eyes!"
"Damn it, I remember those eyes. That evil bloodline..."
Seeing Bai Ye's Mangekyō Sharingan, the Nine-Tails roared furiously.
The Nine-Tails would never forget how it had once been controlled by a pair of those eyes and made to fight a wooden dummy.
In the end, it had been sealed away, stuck in a place that looked like some kind of sewer.
How could it not be furious at seeing the Mangekyō Sharingan again?
[Ping! The Nine-Tails' anger has been detected: +3,000 Negative Energy, Chakra +70...]
[Ping! The Nine-Tails' anger has been detected: +4,000 Negative Energy, Chakra +80...]
[Ping! The Nine-Tails' anger has been detected: +4,000 Negative Energy, Chakra +90...]
[...]
Seeing the Negative Energy keep piling up, Bai Ye was a little surprised.
He had come to the seal space only to wake Kushina.
But to his surprise, he had also gained a windfall: all this Negative Energy.
"Nine-Tails... You really are a fine fellow."
Bai Ye stared at the Nine-Tails, his eyes alight with excitement.
He hadn't expected the Nine-Tails to generate so much Negative Energy for him.
"You wretched bastard! I'll kill you!"
"I'll kill you!"
Seeing Bai Ye's eyes gleam as he stared at it, the Nine-Tails grew even angrier.
[The Nine-Tails' anger has been detected: +4,000 Negative Energy, Chakra +100]
[The Nine-Tails' anger has been detected: +5,000 Negative Energy, Chakra +110]
[The Nine-Tails' anger has been detected: +6,000 Negative Energy, Chakra +120]
[...]
In its fury, the Nine-Tails' Chakra churned relentlessly, slamming against the cage.
The Nine-Tails wanted nothing more than to kill Bai Ye at once.
Unfortunately, the seal around it completely blocked its power.
No matter how furious it became, it couldn't hurt Bai Ye.
But Kushina was in trouble.
As the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Kushina was connected to the Nine-Tails.
Now, as the Nine-Tails roared wildly, its countless surges of rampaging Chakra battered the entire seal.
Kushina's face twisted in pain.
At the same time, the Nine-Tails' Chakra began to invade her even more violently.
"I almost forgot why I came..."
Seeing Kushina's pained expression, Bai Ye finally remembered.
He had come to the seal space for Kushina.
"Nine-Tails, I'm taking this little girl with me for now..."
"I'll come find you again when I have time..."
Bai Ye severed the connection between Kushina and the Nine-Tails and took her out of the seal space.
At the same time, his consciousness returned.
The Nine-Tails' Chakra on Kushina quickly receded.
With the Nine-Tails' Chakra gone, Kushina fainted.
Bai Ye caught her and held her in his arms.
Seeing that the battle was over, Uchiha En hurried over.
"Lord Bai Ye, is the battle over?"
"Yes. The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki's rampage has ended."
"Keep the area secure and restore order here as quickly as possible."
Bai Ye gave Uchiha En his instructions.
"Yes, Lord Bai Ye."
"We'll get things back to normal as soon as we can."
Uchiha En assured him.
Uchiha En didn't ask about Kushina in Bai Ye's arms.
Just as Bai Ye was about to carry Kushina away, Anbu appeared at once and blocked his path.
"Uchiha Clan member, put down the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki at once!"
The Anbu Captain leading them spoke up.
The Anbu Captain had already been furious that members of the Uchiha Clan had interfered in the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki matter.
When Kushina had fought the Uchiha Clan ninja while berserk, he had stood by and watched.
He had wanted the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki to beat up the Uchiha Clan ninja and teach them a painful lesson.
But he hadn't expected the Uchiha Clan ninja to be so powerful.
They had actually subdued the rampaging Nine-Tails Jinchuriki—something the Anbu Captain had never imagined.
So the Anbu Captain had hurried over with his men, blocked Bai Ye, and demanded that he hand Kushina over.
"Get lost."
Looking at the Anbu blocking his way, Bai Ye spat out the words with disdain.
Of course, he wasn't going to hand over Kushina in his arms.
Kushina had the Nine-Tails inside her. She was a fresh source of Negative Energy for Bai Ye. How could he let her go so easily?
"Damn it, you Uchiha ninja..."
"What do you think you're doing!? How dare you defy Anbu's orders?"
Hearing Bai Ye's disrespectful reply, the Anbu Captain flew into a rage and drew his Ninja Sword.
The other Anbu saw their captain's move and drew their weapons in unison.
"What are you doing?!"
"You actually dare to draw your weapons on me..."
Seeing the Anbu Captain's move, Bai Ye said with some surprise.
Lately, Bai Ye had beaten up plenty of Anbu.
Now, the Anbu in Konoha stayed well away whenever they saw members of the Security Force.
Bai Ye hadn't expected to find such a bold Anbu member, someone who still dared to provoke him.
"Hmph, what's so great about the Uchiha Clan?"
"In Konoha, you have to listen to Anbu!"
The Anbu Captain said, still refusing to back down.
