You Locked Your Own Jinchuriki Cage, Eight-Tails

"Lord Hokage, what should we do?"

Sai looked at Tsunade and asked in a low voice.

Tsunade looked at Killer B and said, "What else can we do? Move him out and bury him!"

If someone dies, wouldn't they just rot in the Dungeon if they weren't buried?

Just as they were carrying him out, a Ninja approached Tsunade. "Lord Hokage, something terrible has happened! Ōnoki strike!"

"How old are you? Still on a hunger strike?"

Tsunade frowned.

"Sai, go bury Killer B. I'm going to Ōnoki's place, I'll be back in a bit."

Sai nodded. "Okay."

Meanwhile, Kanami returned home.

In an instant, Two-Tails Matatabi rushed up and sniffed all over Kanami.

How come you have the aura of the Eight-Tails Gyuki on you?

She found it very strange.

"That's natural, because the Eight-Tails is currently inside my body."

As Kanami spoke, he forcefully activated the Eight-Tails Gyuki ' Chakra, guiding it out so that the Two-Tails Matatabi, could sense it.

The Two-Tails Matatabi was startled when he saw the Chakra on Kanami's body.

"It really is the Eight-Tails Gyuki!"

"Lord Feng An, where have you been? You even brought the Eight-Tails Gyuki with you."

She was shocked.

Just then, Hinata Hyuga walked up as well. "Kanami, you sealed the Eight-Tails inside you?"

"Yes."

"Isn't this really safe?"

"I've heard that Jinchuriki dies if their Tailed Beast is extracted..."

Hinata Hyuga asked with great concern.

Kanami shook his head and smiled. "It's alright. I didn't become Jinchuriki. I just temporarily housed the Eight-Tails in my body. But it was disobedient, so I locked it up. I'll release it when it becomes obedient."

Two-Tails Matatabi pondered for a moment, then looked at Kanami, "Let me in. I just wanted to talk to Eight-Tails; we haven't seen each other in a long time."

"You want to see the Eight-Tails?"

"Right."

Seeing how determined Two-Tails Matatabi was, Kanami did not refuse.

In this Shinobi World, is there anyone whose body houses two Tailed Beast?

Kanami proactively opened his Deep Consciousness Space, Two-Tails Matatabi instantly transformed into Chakra energy, directly entering Kanami's stomach.

At the same time, the Eight-Tails also tried to emerge from it, but was pushed back by a surge of Matatabi's Chakra.

Is this really okay?

Hinata Hyuga became even more worried.

She always felt that Kanami was sometimes too reckless, daring to do anything.

Even in such a vital place as the body, two Tailed Beast easily entered!

For anyone else, this would be absolutely unacceptable.

"It's alright, it's alright. When have I ever been in trouble?"

Kanami smiled.

Hinata felt relieved when she saw Kanami's smile.

Every time the other person smiled, it made her feel at ease, as if nothing was really wrong.

However, since the person who put two Tailed Beast into his body was Kanami, then everything is fine.

"Then I'll go cook. If you feel unwell, let me know, and I'll..."

Hinata Hyuga said she wanted to help him immediately.

But upon closer reflection, even if something really happened to Kanami, there was nothing she could do to help.

After all, the Tailed Beast are all inside his stomach.

Surely she couldn't also transform into Chakra energy and enter Kanami's body, could she?

Although she wanted to, she had no way to transform herself into Chakra energy.

Kanami noticed Hinata's embarrassment and patted Hinata head. "Alright, I'm really fine. I'm strong and healthy. Don't you know how good my body is?"

He burst into laughter.

Hinata immediately made the connection upon seeing it...

"I, of course I know you're in good health... Hmph, I'm going to cook!"

Hinata wasn't very good at dealing with this kind of topic, so she turned and ran to the kitchen to get busy.

Keeping yourself busy helps you forget the random thoughts in your mind.

Otherwise she would...

Seeing Hinata's expression, Kanami smiled inwardly.

Hinata is still as cute as ever.

I must work hard for Hinata's innocence!

Let it sit and do nothing for now, we'll do it later...

Once we've defeated the Otsutsuki and all those enemies, I should be able to truly enjoy life with Hinata.

I want to take her to every corner of the Shinobi World Shinobi World and let her see the different sights.

Um...

War must be prevented.

If it can't be stopped... then I'll unify this Shinobi World myself.

Within Kanami's world of consciousness.

"What are you doing here? And how did you get here? Have you betrayed us?"

The Eight-Tails Gyuki looked at the Two-Tails Matatabi and bombarded him with a series of questions.

Two-Tails Matatabi:...

"How can I answer all these questions you're asking me?"

"I came in to see you. After all, there's a subtle connection between the Tailed Beast. But it's been a long time. If we're talking about Ninja terminology, we should be considered family."

"Family? Do we look alike? Every Tailed Beast looks like a mess, how can we be family?"

The Eight-Tails Gyuki scoffed at it.

Two-Tails Matatabi, with elegant steps, lightly touched the water's surface. "We're just family, but it doesn't matter if you don't admit it, I don't have any good feelings towards you anyway."

"Hmph, who needs the favor of a Cat Demon you?"

"The Eight-Tails Gyuki said coldly."

"I am here because Lord Feng An allowed me to enter."

"You really betrayed us! You actually called that person 'sir'! Cat Demon, you used to be so arrogant, how have you fallen so low?"

The Eight-Tails Gyuki said disdainfully.

"Betrayal? Then tell me, who did I betray?"

Two-Tails Matatabi pressed for an answer.

"Of course it was betrayal of you... Master..."

The Eight-Tails Gyuki spoke the last two words very softly.

He realized something was wrong; how could Jinchuriki as their master?

Jinchuriki were originally meant to be a cage to confine them.

"It seems you've realized it yourself," Matatabi slowly began. "Subconsciously, you've long regarded the Jinchuriki as your master. You say I betrayed you? Who did I betray? My master is only myself. I haven't betrayed anyone."

Upon hearing this, the Eight-Tails Gyuki was at a loss for words.

Matatabi continued, "The Jinchuriki has already locked you in. You think you're friends with him, but that's only in that world. You have no one to talk to."

"You can only communicate with him, you're forced to be friends with him, and this friend of yours keeps coming to borrow things from you. But what do you get out of him?"

"All I get is empty emotional companionship."

"Your friend can't even let you out."

"So, did I betray you, or have you, you Gyuki, been enslaved?"

As soon as the Two-Tails Matatabi finished speaking, the Eight-Tails Gyuki was completely stunned.

His mind was buzzing incessantly.

"The cage of Jinchuriki isn't locked by the Ninja; it's locked within your own heart."
