All Right, He's Calmed Down / The Power of God

That monk not only possessed bizarre abilities and was incredibly strong in close combat, but he was also a bit weak and couldn't last long.

Even so, the Eight-Tails' tentacles have already been used four times.

After hearing what Fu said, Bi stopped arguing and the two of them kept their heads down and continued on their way.

They have already crossed the border of the Land of Fire. If they go deep enough and reach any populated area, they will be discovered by the Konoha Ninja.

Regardless of whether this monk will fight the Konoha Ninja as well, he will be regarded as an enemy by Leaf Village.

Suddenly, Fu grabbed Bi and forcibly changed direction.

The next moment, dozens of black Chakra rods suddenly appeared and pierced the ground in front of the two.

They'd been hit by this stuff once; it disrupts Chakra. If it weren't for the Eight-Tails and Seven-Tails' help, they would have died.

Moreover, it's impossible to sense when the opponent initiates the attack; they will only make movements.

Fu was able to react just now not because she could sense this thing, but because she had been releasing scale powder.

The scales from the Seven-Tails Fox can paralyze the enemy's movements and obstruct their vision; that's a direct, frontal fighting style.

Normally, releasing a small amount of scale powder can also serve as a warning, which can be considered a physical means of "sensing".

"You two are quite mischievous." A man dressed in a white haori emerged from the woods ahead. "However, now that we know you're heading to that place called Leaf Village, you can't escape."

"You sissy, why are you chasing us!" Bi shouted excitedly.

"You are worthless to me, but the Tailed Beasts inside you are quite something." The man's appearance was rather... unpleasant.

Her hair was gathered on top of her head, with a long braid at the back of her head, and strange patterns on her left eye and under her chin.

"Also, I'm not called sissy, I'm called Jigen," the man said. "My original intention hasn't changed; I hope you will become my subordinates. I won't take too much of your Chakra."

"Get out!" Bi said without hesitation. "I can tell you're no good just by looking at you!"

Fu didn't speak, but she was ready for battle.

Chapter Thirteen: Okay, he's calmed down.

"No need to be so tense." Jigen looked at the two who seemed to be facing a formidable enemy, but he appeared quite amiable. "I have never intended to kill you, and you yourselves can feel that. As 'Jinchūriki,' borrowing your Chakra doesn't harm you, does it?"

"Then you must also know that we Jinchūriki are very sensitive to the attitudes of others," Fu said.

"I see." Jigen nodded. "As inferior beings, you do indeed care a great deal about the opinions of other individuals."

Having lived for a thousand Jigen's will has been eroded over the years, and she is no longer herself.

However, as a "vessel" of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, he is not the Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.

The current Jigen is neither human nor Ōtsutsuki Clan, but rather something that is a mixture of both, both in body and consciousness.

And their claim to be higher beings is clear.

Because they are superior beings and hold themselves in high esteem, they will not act rashly unless they feel it is necessary—that would be tantamount to lowering their status. Since they are superior beings, their behavior should be distinguished from that of so-called "inferior beings."

That's why Jigen usually looks like a refined gentleman. As long as his bottom line isn't crossed, he can even make many verbal concessions, which is how he treats Fu and Bi.

He would be very polite if the two men were willing to submit.

He doesn't mind paying some small favors; as long as you're obedient, he's willing to give you benefits.

After all, in his eyes, Fu and Bi were good tools for making deals with Uchiha Madara.

That was a good pawn. Although it belonged to Kaguya Otsutsuki, Jigen was very willing to help Uchiha Madara.

He can make his move when the Chakra Flower blooms again.

The little Ten-Tails is not actually Ten-Tails.

However, Fu and Bi's current attitude greatly disappointed him.

Inferior beings can never see reality clearly.

Jigen decided to go all out this time.

"Since you are Jinchūriki, you should be able to withstand it." Jigen raised his hand, and a Chakra staff appeared in his hand. "Once I take you back, you will know how good it is to follow me."

Before he finished speaking, he had already appeared in front of Fu and Bi, Chakra staff struck Fu's knee joint first.

The reason the two were able to escape earlier was partly because he didn't intend to kill them and even thought about persuading them.

On the other hand, the Seven-Tails' minor abilities did indeed play a certain role.

As for the Eight-Tails, it's mentally challenged; without the Seven-Tails, it could be captured easily.

The Chakra staff didn't hit Fu. Although Fu and Bee had been chased like dogs these past few days, it has to be said that their synergy with the Tailed Beasts had indeed greatly improved.

Chomei and Gyuki were keeping watch on them around the clock.

There was no other way; the Jinchūriki too weak, so I had to do it myself.

The Chakra staff landed on a layer of Chakra.

There were those who Chomei, and there were those Gyuki.

This layer of Chakra was released explosively, not to block, but to push Jigen away.

However, as an Ōtsutsuki Clan had transformed into a human and possessed the Chakra of the Lesser Ten-Tails, Jigen's power could not be stopped in this way.

The Chakra staff was indeed blocked—but it also smashed the defensive layer created by the two Tailed Beasts to smithereens, and the force it carried still sent Fu and Bee flying.

Fufei was already vomiting blood while in mid-air, which was better than the previous case, where although there was blood, at least she didn't vomit it out.

However, this flight separated the two of them.

"As expected, it's beasts that are stopping me." Jigen shook his head as he saw the Eight-Tails' tentacles extending from Bee's body, trying to pull Fu to his side. He stretched out his hand, and immediately more than a dozen black Chakra rods pierced through the tentacles.

"You see, the Tailed Beasts only use you as tools. You are not Tailed Beasts. If you die here, you are truly dead." Jigen looked at the two people who had already crashed to the ground. "And I only harm Tailed Beasts, I am not your enemy."

"Hey! Big sister!" Bi ignored Jigen, "Are you not dead?"

More than a dozen black Chakra rods were embedded in his tentacles. These things can indeed cause Chakra disorder, but if the target is the Tailed Beast Cloak formed from the Eight-Tails 'Chakra, then it doesn't matter.

This is not the Eight-Tails' true form; it's just Chakra transformation.

Having detached himself from that portion of Chakra, he jumped up, feeling in good condition.

That's why I said only effeminate men and women use Ninjutsu. No matter how fancy the Ninjutsu is, it's useless if the person can't take a beating.

For men, only Nintaijutsu is reliable.

He took off running towards Fu.

"Young man, you need to calm down." Jigen appeared behind him, grabbing his neck. "We'd better talk one by one."

Even though Bee was caught by Jigen with his bare hands, his body was covered by the Tailed Beast Cloak formed from the Eight-Tails 'Chakra, but Jigen was not affected by the Eight-Tails- Tails 'Chakra. On the contrary, he was absorbing the Eight-Tails 'Chakra.

In the blink of an eye, all of Bee's Eight-Tails Chakra was absorbed.

Jigen flicked his wrist, and the object crashed into a nearby tree like a cannonball.

"Alright, he's calmed down." Jigen looked at Fu. "I think you should calm down too."

Fu: "... I'm very calm."

"Then let's talk. You can state your conditions, and so can he." The Chakra staff in Jigen's hand suddenly disappeared again.

Fu still couldn't see anything; she had no idea what kind of Ninjutsu it was.

Space-Time Ninjutsu? No, Space-Time Ninjutsu always has a clear time delay beforehand, but this monk named Jigen has none at all.

However, his first appearance was clearly a spatial teleportation technique.

"If you're going to negotiate, why knock Bi out?" Fu looked in Bi's direction; this temporary companion was probably suffering from a concussion.

"Because I highly respect the personal wishes of my subordinates, I always talk to them individually," Jigen said, naturally exuding the aura of a conscientious boss.

Fu sat up, supporting herself on her shoulders.

That Chakra staff hadn't appeared before.

The blow nearly knocked away the cover she had used to protect the little bun.

Chomei's Chakra is healing her; at least she's stopped vomiting blood now.

But when it comes to fighting, he's still a bit lacking.

"I'm a ninja too, and I know that whoever speaks first loses. If you're truly sincere, why don't you tell me what conditions you can offer?"

"Hmm... I see." Jigen stroked his chin thoughtfully. "You have a severe lack of security and self-confidence, and you're afraid of not being valued..."

He spread his hands and said, "I have no interest in wealth or power. If that's what you're worried about, then you don't need to obey anyone else's orders except mine. As for money, take as much as you want. I won't restrict your actions; just be there when you need it."

Fu was taken aback.

Although it's just a delay, but...

Isn't this guy being a bit too generous?

Where did this super-rich guy come from? Why isn't he enjoying his comfortable life and going out looking for thrills?

Just as she was about to say something, a voice came from behind Jigen.

"Young lady, don't believe him. He couldn't possibly be that rich."

Fu looked in that direction, while Jigen turned around without changing his expression.

Under a large tree, a ninja wearing Konoha Ninja vest stood there.

It is worth noting that he was also wearing a white divine robe.

Chapter Fourteen: The Power of God

Namikaze Minato is excited at this moment.

So many years! So many years! He went from a man who came and went like the wind to a workaholic storm in the Hokage Building.

After completing his inauguration on the rooftop, Uchiha Shingen immediately dashed out of the village and ran off for a good time.

Holy crap, that's awesome!

Of course, he was caught and taken back to hand in his homework that very night.

But it doesn't matter, he's a man who never gives up.

Perhaps due to his overjoyed mood, he unleashed his full fighting power that night, turning Uzumaki Kushina into a kitten.

Then, early the next morning, he ran away again.

He even went to the government service hall and accepted an S-level mission.

It's the same old saying.

So many years! So many years! He'd almost forgotten the taste of mission rewards!

So, after completing this delivery, he went to a hot spring with Tang Daming, had some drinks, and then returned.

This is what life should be like!

That's not all; on the way back, he indulged in slacking off and enjoyed the scenery along the way.

Don't say he's not serious about his work; he's retired.

This touch led them to a scene of highway robbery.

This is outrageous!

The Land of Fire will never tolerate such demons Moryo!

However, before Namikaze Minato could shout "Justice is here!", he discovered that the group had started chatting.

Upon further listening, good heavens, it wasn't robbery of money, it was kidnapping of people.

Human traffickers deserve even stronger action!

This is a joke. After all, Namikaze Minato isn't mentally disabled. He can tell at a glance that this is a yakuza boss who forcibly recruits underlings, and who doesn't want power or money. That's no ordinary yakuza boss.

As the previous Hokage, he couldn't pretend he hadn't seen it.

"Monk, which temple are you from?" Namikaze Minato, looking at Jigen.

This person is quite strong, with top-notch Taijutsu skills, and also possesses strange techniques, so he should not be underestimated.

The Land of Fire would never have such an awesome monk, nor would it allow such an awesome monk to exist. The Fire Temple has already reached its limit.
