"Naruto... he's been captured?" Neji looked at Naruto, who was bound by sealing chains.
"The Nine-Tails chakra inside Naruto has almost all been absorbed!" A glance with his Tenseigan revealed Naruto's exact condition.
With a thought, he transformed a Truth-Seeking Orb into a blade and sliced through every sealing chain.
The Ten-Tails' sealing chains were sturdy, but they could not withstand an attack from a Truth-Seeking Orb.
Gratitude appeared on Minato Namikaze's face, and he immediately whisked Naruto away.
Neji paid little attention to that. Most of his focus remained on the Ten-Tails.
Watching the Ten-Tails absorb the Nine-Tails chakra, Neji thought, The Ten-Tails has already revived to this powerful humanoid form... Looks like Obito Uchiha fed Kinkaku and Ginkaku to it first. In this form, it's already possible to perform the Six Paths: Ten-Tails Coffin Seal and become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki...
Should I become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki? With my current strength, if I perform the Six Paths: Ten-Tails Coffin Seal first, Obito Uchiha won't stand much of a chance... Even without the Rinnegan, my Tenseigan is enough to suppress the Ten-Tails... Neji narrowed his eyes, unable to make up his mind.
There was no need to worry about Ju Yan, the Seven-Tailed Fox inside him. Ju Yan could simply leave his body before he became the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.
That was not what truly troubled Neji. It was Kaguya Otsutsuki!
Becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki was far from risk-free. On the contrary, gaining that immense power also came with immense danger.
Simply staying on guard against Black Zetsu would not eliminate the risk of Kaguya Otsutsuki's resurrection.
Judging by what happened after Madara Uchiha became the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki in the original story, Kaguya Otsutsuki would have revived even without Black Zetsu's treachery.
Kaguya Otsutsuki's consciousness had already begun to awaken before
