Life Energy, Tianqi Awakens
"W-wh-wh..." Before she could even speak, Nine-Tails had already refused, leaving Uzumaki Mito speechless.
"You imprisoned me and expect me to help you humans? Don't even dream about it!" The more Nine-Tails thought about being locked up in this cage, the angrier she became.
Uzumaki Mito patiently explained to Nine-Tails, "I had no choice but to lock you up here. If I let you roam freely in the Shinobi World, bad people would definitely use your power to cause trouble everywhere. Nine-Tails, please try to understand. Besides, we've been together for decades, aren't we already friends?"
"Friends?" Nine-Tails was stunned for a moment when he heard Uzumaki Mito say "friends." No one had ever used the word "friends" on him before, and Nine-Tails immediately fell into deep thought.
"That's right, we're friends. Over the years, I've long considered you my friend. And friends should help each other. Now that I need help, can't you lend a helping hand?" Seeing that things were looking promising, Uzumaki Mito continued to persuade Nine-Tails.
At this moment, Nine-Tails realized what was happening. How could someone imprison a friend like this? Uzumaki Mito was clearly lying to her. Thinking of this, Nine-Tails immediately became furious. "Who the hell is your friend? I don't need any friends. You just want to use me. If you really consider me a friend, you should let me out and give me my freedom."
Seeing that it was impossible to persuade Nine-Tails in the short term, and that Tianqi outside couldn't wait much longer, Uzumaki Mito's expression changed. "I originally wanted to persuade you to help willingly, but since you're unwilling, I have no choice but to force you to help. I'm sorry, Nine-Tails."
"Diamond Shackles!" As soon as she finished speaking, several golden chains emerged from Uzumaki Mito's body, instantly binding the Nine-Tails.
Nine-Tails- Tails roared in fury, "I knew this would happen! Damn humans, you just want to use my power! You better not give me a chance to get out. If I can get out, I will definitely kill you, you cunning humans!"
Uzumaki Mito ignored Nine-Tails and began to pull at Nine-Tails's Chakra. Nine-Tails has two kinds of power: one is energy full of violence and evil, and the other is life energy used to heal wounds. What she needs is this life energy.
It has to be said that Uzumaki Mito's Vajra Shackles are truly powerful. The Nine-Tails, trapped inside, could only keep babbling, its body completely unable to move. Compared to Uzumaki Kushina, Uzumaki Mito is far stronger.
After a minute of pulling, Uzumaki Mito finally managed to extract the life energy from Nine-Tails's body bit by bit. Once she had enough life energy, Uzumaki Mito apologized to Nine-Tails and left.
The Nine-Tails roared in fury again, "Damn humans, despicable humans, I'll kill you all one day!"
Having received life energy, Uzumaki Mito opened her eyes and walked to Tianqi's side. She said to the Katsuyu and the White Zetsu, "Now you all step aside and stop. I can heal Tianqi now."
Upon hearing this, the White Zetsu and the Katsuyu stopped fighting and stepped aside. The White Zetsu looked at Uzumaki Mito with curiosity, wanting to see what method this woman could use to save Uchiha Tianqi's life.
Uzumaki Mito placed her hands, one on top of the other, on Tianqi's heart. Instantly, her hands burst forth with a blinding green light, so bright that everyone present was unable to open their eyes.
As Uzumaki Mito continued to input his life energy, Tianqi's life force finally stopped flowing away. In fact, Uzumaki Mito and the others' efforts were completely in vain. As the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, Tianqi could not possibly die from the loss of his life force.
As long as the Ten-Tails is still inside Tianqi's body, he cannot die. As for the loss of his life force, it is entirely due to the excessive use of Time Force and the forced breaking of eight acupoints. Once his life force is reduced to its last trace, it will stop flowing. Given enough time, Tianqi can fully recover on his own.
But now, with the life energy of the Nine-Tails Fox, Tianqi's recovery time, which would normally take thirty or forty years, has been shortened to just over twenty years. In just twenty years, the invincible Tianqi will awaken once again.
After injecting the life energy, Uzumaki Mito got up and stared intently at Tianqi lying on the bed. "I gave you all the life energy I stole from Nine-Tails in one go. Tianqi, this should be enough to save your life."
Tsunade and the others also stared intently at Tianqi, wanting to see if Tianqi's life force would continue to ebb away after Uzumaki Mito's treatment.
Even while unconscious, Tianqi felt a surge of life energy entering his body. It seemed the people of Konoha were starting to treat him. At least he hadn't made a mistake in saving you. You still have some conscience after all.
Although this power has halved the recovery time, lying in bed for twenty years is not my style. I want to see with my own eyes what will happen to the Shinobi World. Looks like I'll have to take another gamble.
After making the decision, Tianqi used the half of the life energy that had just entered his body. The moment he used it, the time it took for Tianqi to awaken changed from twenty years to thirty years.
As Tianqi lay on the bed, his body began to float up. Suddenly Tianqi opened his eyes, and the Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan activated instantly.
Before anyone could react, Tianqi, who had just woken up, teleported to the White Zetsu, who possessed the strength of Jonin. He grabbed White Zetsu Tianqi the neck and lifted him off the ground. His Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan was spinning rapidly as it stared at White Zetsu. Suddenly, a beam of white light entered White Zetsu's body.
Everyone present was stunned by this sudden turn of events. They quickly recovered and saw that Tianqi had woken up. Tsunade ran over happily, but just as she was about to hug Tianqi fainted again.
"Tianqi! Tianqi!" Before she could even celebrate for a minute, Tsunade saw that Tianqi had fainted again. She held him and shook him for a while. "Grandma, come and see, what's wrong with Tianqi?"
Uzumaki Mito rushed over and examined Tianqi's body. After a while, Uzumaki Mito frowned again. What was going on? Why was his life energy so low?
Seeing her grandmother's furrowed brows, Tsunade asked with concern, "Grandma, how is Tianqi? Is he really beyond saving?"
"It's alright, Tianqi's life has been saved, but I don't know why I gave him more than half of his life energy," Uzumaki Mito comforted her, seeing how anxious her granddaughter was.
The White Zetsu that Tianqi had pinched now revealed a strange smile. Great, it finally succeeded.
