"Waaah, waaah, waaah... It hurts, it hurts, it hurts~~~~~~~~!!!"
Kushina's screams echoed throughout the cave and beyond~~~!
The black-clad ANBU stationed outside the cave's barrier remained undisturbed, vigilantly watching for any movement around them.
Inside the delivery room, Kushina lay on the birthing bed in a thin white gown, her hair disheveled, teeth clenched, and sweat pouring down her face!!!
In short, there was only one word for it!
—"Pain...!!!!!!!!!!"
Reinforcement talismans covered the area around the sealing formula on her abdomen, while Minato stood beside her, drenched in sweat as he maintained the seal!
Yet he still found it difficult to stop the main body of the sealing formula from loosening due to the delivery, giving the Nine-Tails a chance to break free!!
At the foot of the bed, Tsunade kept both hands on the Hemostasis Technique, guarding against the risk of massive bleeding during childbirth!!
Biwako shouted from the side, "The head is out!!! Kushina, push harder!!!!"
Nearby, Shizune, dressed in a white protective gown, mused inwardly: Facing such a bloody scene, Lady Tsunade remained completely composed. Her hemophobia really has gotten better. After I fainted in the Land of Rivers, what exactly happened?
"Shizune... go get hot water!!!!" Biwako's stern shout snapped Shizune back to her senses.
"Yes!!! Lady Biwako!!!"
"Waaah, ughhhhh...!!!!" Kushina trembled all over, letting out heart-wrenching cries of pain.
"Roaarrrr...!!!" The Nine-Tails was roaring as well, trying to break through the seal!!
Minato desperately maintained the seal. "Naruto!!! Come out already!! Nine-Tails, just stay put!!!!!"
Outside the barrier.
"Crack!!" Obito gripped the throat of the last black-clad ANBU until he suffocated to death, his corpse collapsing at Obito's feet.
"..." He raised his face. Beneath the tiger-striped mask, his Sharingan glowed darkly. He moved forward, ignoring the barrier as his body passed through it.
