  • Feng named Sora of the Fire Temple and his father as the Pseudo Nine-Tails Jinchūriki's source, and Black Zetsu agreed to verify the claim before arranging Feng's requests.
  • After Black Zetsu left, Feng told Kurama that the information was true but would take years to exploit and could delay the Ten-Tails' revival.
