Konoha: The Female Ninja Fell Apart After the Diary Was Exposed

Otherwise,

Who else could possibly stop a being like that?

[All right, I've probably written enough for today. I'll stop here.]

The moment the women saw that, they all grew anxious.

Don't stop!

Write more!

That's way too short!

Are you even a man?

We were just getting into it. How could you stop now?

At least tell us what happened after Otsutsuki Kaguya was Sealing away.

What happened to Hamura Otsutsuki and Hagoromo Otsutsuki?

Why were there only legends of the Sage of Six Paths in the Shinobi World?

What about the other one?

And another thing,

Hadn't the Shinobi World been shattered? How was it repaired afterward?

And that Ten-Tails—

What was it? Weren't there only nine tailed beasts in the Shinobi World?

In the future,

Would the Ōtsutsuki Clan really send someone to the Shinobi World?

Naruto had left the women hanging, like a kitten was scratching away at their curiosity.

And he refused to give them any answers.

That bastard...

He was infuriating!

Kaguya: Could Any of Those Natives Match My Beauty?

The moon.

A space within it.

Otsutsuki Kaguya stared at the Diary. For the first time, shock broke through her usually impassive expression.

She had originally thought

Naruto Uzumaki might have traveled back from the future using the Divine Tool Karasuki.

So,

It would not have been strange for him to know something about the Ōtsutsuki Clan.

But

Only today had she learned

That Naruto Uzumaki knew her own history inside and out.

Attacking Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, stealing and eating the Chakra Fruit, creating White Zetsu, giving birth to Hagoromo and Hamura, being Sealing on the moon...

Every one of those secrets

Should have been known only to her after Hagoromo and Hamura died.

Yet

He knew them all.

He even knew about Black Zetsu.

Could he really be from another world, as the Diary said?

If so, that was terrifying.

"With a new variable like him in the Shinobi World, I wonder whether Black Zetsu will notice."

"If he doesn't, I may never see the light of day again."

Otsutsuki Kaguya's heart sank.

He knew so much that she could hardly believe he did not know how Black Zetsu intended to free her from the Sealing.

Under those circumstances,

It would be nearly impossible for Black Zetsu to revive the Ten-Tails.

"Fortunately, the Diary hasn't mentioned anything more about that yet. There may still be a chance."

Otsutsuki Kaguya tried to comfort herself.

At the same time,

Another thought inexplicably rose in her mind.

If Black Zetsu's plan truly failed, then... surely she was no less beautiful than those natives of the Shinobi World?

Perhaps

That Naruto Uzumaki

Might even ask her to be his wife.

[Ding!]

[Congratulations, Host! You have completed a Diary entry. Reward: Nine-Tails (Yin Nine-Tails)!]

"What?!"

At the system's announcement, Naruto Uzumaki shot upright in bed.

Not from excitement, but from fright!

After all,

The Nine-Tails inside him

Was constantly trying to break through the Sealing and tear him to pieces.

He had only been safe so far because the Sealing Minato had left was sturdy, and the Nine-Tails had only half its full strength.

But now,

What did the system mean by rewarding him with the Yin Nine-Tails' Chakra?

Was it making the Nine-Tails whole so it could break free from the Sealing and kill him?

"What the hell? System, don't—"

Before Naruto Uzumaki could finish, the system's voice sounded in his mind again.

[Ding!]

[Reminder: Once the Yang Nine-Tails inside the Host merges with the awarded Yin Nine-Tails' Chakra, the Host will gain absolute control over the Nine-Tails.]

"Oh!"

"Well played, system! That's amazing!"

Naruto Uzumaki grinned and gave it a thumbs-up.

So that's how it works.

Now I can relax.

A warm current flowed into him, followed by a surge of violent, chilling, terrifying Chakra.

His Mental World.

"Hm?"

"This familiar power..."

The Nine-Tails' eyes widened at the ball of Chakra that had suddenly appeared before him.

Wasn't that the other half of his Chakra?

Hadn't that half been Sealing inside the Shinigami along with that bastard Minato Namikaze?

How had it gotten here?

A tiny question flickered through the Nine-Tails' enormous head.

But in the next instant,

He cast all such thoughts aside.

Instinct drove the Nine-Tails to swallow the ball of Chakra in one gulp.

Then,

The two powerful masses of Chakra merged in an instant.

"Hahahahaha! My power has finally returned!"

"Wonderful."

Feeling the strength coursing through him, the Nine-Tails roared with laughter. His nine massive tails slammed behind him with a series of booms.

"Nine-Tails, you seem to be in a good mood."

"Hm?"

The sudden voice snapped the Nine-Tails back to his senses.

He looked down

And found Naruto Uzumaki standing in the open space outside the cage, smiling at him.

"Brat, how did you get in here?"

The Nine-Tails stared at Naruto Uzumaki and spoke coldly.

"This is my body. I can come here whenever I want."

Naruto Uzumaki met the Nine-Tails' icy gaze and answered without hurry.

"Hmph!"

"Your timing is perfect, brat."

"Today I'll show you my true power!"

"Fourth Hokage... you'll regret the decision you made back then."

The Nine-Tails looked at the Sealing on the cage door, an almost human smile spreading across his face.

The Sealing Minato Namikaze had left could indeed hold him before.

But

His strength had now returned to its peak.

That Sealing

Was no longer up to the task.

Minato Namikaze,

Just watch.

I'll raze the village you gave your life to protect, blast those wretched Ninja to dust, and tear your child... to pieces!

Killing the brat before him would mean his own death, too.

But so what?
