Naruto, having had enough of poverty, instantly had dollar signs appear in her eyes.

"The Uchiha are rich and arrogant. The clan definitely won't care about losing a little bit of money! I won't be polite and will take it!" Naruto moved with lightning speed, tucking the scroll into her clothes.

An hour later, Konoha ninja arrived at the scene, ordered by the Third Hokage.

In the evening, Itachi Uchiha arrived, searching for the scroll lost by Fugaku Uchiha.

"Could it be... taken by someone from Konoha?"

Itachi Uchiha left after finding nothing.

Inside the cave, Naruto sat by the campfire, roasting the bear paw of the cave's former owner, with the former owner's fur as a seat. She sneakily opened the scroll and roughly broke the seal.

"What the heck!!! Fugaku Uchiha, come get your wife's corpse!!"

Naruto yelped and stumbled back several steps, only to have her backside impaled by the fangs of the dead bear, whose eyes were wide open in death.

"Ah!"

Naruto got up and turned around, realizing she had been pricked in the butt by the bear's teeth. After letting out a sigh of relief, she looked troubled at Mikoto Uchiha's corpse.

"Hm?"

In the firelight, though not very obvious, Naruto seemed to see a faint rise and fall in Mikoto Uchiha's abdomen!

"Could she still be alive?"

Naruto pressed her ear to Mikoto Uchiha's chest, carefully listening for her heartbeat.

Mmm, so soft...

Naruto couldn't help but have a slightly wicked thought.

Mikoto Uchiha's body was ice cold. If one didn't listen carefully, it would be hard to hear her extremely faint heartbeat.

The soft touch made her linger for a moment. Accidentally, she pressed on the wound, which had stopped bleeding, causing it to bleed again. Smelling the blood, Naruto quickly raised her head.

Looking at the bleeding wound, Naruto urgently called out to the Nine-Tails, who was dozing inside her.

"Nine-Tails, Nine-Tails! Hurry and help!"

"What?! Is there an enemy?!"

The Nine-Tails immediately transferred its chakra to Naruto. A fierce wind raged, and gravel fell from the cave ceiling, hitting Naruto's head. The cloak of Nine-Tails chakra deflected the falling rocks.

"I called you to save someone..."

Naruto tugged at the chakra fox ears on her head, speechless. The Nine-Tails' chakra outburst had nearly collapsed the cave.

"Ah! My roasted bear paw!"

Naruto cried out in pain as she saw the bear paw fall into the campfire.

"This is the first time I've ever eaten bear paw! Nine-Tails! How will you compensate me!!!"

"Naruto! If you don't do something about that woman, she's going to die!"

The Nine-Tails looked at the woman who was barely breathing, halfway to the underworld, and reminded Naruto. Of course, if Naruto could see into her inner world, she would notice the Nine-Tails' guilty expression.

Chapter 21: Nine-Tails Resuscitator (1/2)

Naruto placed her hands on Mikoto Uchiha's chest, and the Nine-Tails' chakra flowed into Mikoto Uchiha's body, gradually healing the wounds on her body.

After the wounds healed, Mikoto Uchiha's breathing remained weak, and her icy body showed no signs of warming up.

Her injuries were healed, so why wasn't her condition improving? Stroking Mikoto Uchiha's cold face, Naruto frowned. Seeing Mikoto Uchiha on the verge of death reminded her of Kushina Uzumaki, her mother who had left her forever shortly after her birth.

Suddenly! Mikoto Uchiha's heart stopped beating, and her faint breaths disappeared.

Naruto's trembling fingers moved to Mikoto Uchiha's nose. Her nostrils contracted sharply. The hand in front of Mikoto Uchiha's nose slowly lowered.

"No... breathing..."

"This woman is beyond saving, just find a place to bury her!" The Nine-Tails, seeing Naruto's devastated and lost expression, advised her with concern.

"No, she's not completely dead yet! Perhaps by the medical standards of this world, she is dead, but in my eyes, she can still be saved." Naruto took out a kunai from Yakushi Nonō's ninja pouch, took a deep breath, unbuttoned Mikoto Uchiha's clothes, and gazed at the snow-white skin and the pink peaks, her heart calm.

"Nine-Tails, lend me some chakra!"

Naruto, now in Nine-Tails Sage Mode, with a tail wagging behind her, quickly made an incision on Mikoto Uchiha's chest. Her hand, formed from Nine-Tails chakra, grasped Mikoto Uchiha's stopped heart, rhythmically squeezing it while continuously infusing a mixture of the Nine-Tails' and her own chakra.

"I see, she lost too much blood!" Naruto didn't hesitate. She cut open Mikoto Uchiha's wrist, then her own, and pressed the wounds together. Using chakra, she channeled her own blood into Mikoto Uchiha's body.

At this moment, she didn't have time to think too much; she could only gamble. She gambled that Mikoto Uchiha wouldn't have an adverse reaction to her blood. If she did, Mikoto Uchiha would die completely!

"Naruto, why? Why are you doing this for this woman?" the Nine-Tails asked, confused. Seeing Naruto's increasingly pale little face, the Nine-Tails clenched its paws tightly, suppressing the urge to stop Naruto.

"Of course, it's to save her so I can extort the Uchiha's wealth! This is to prepare for my future financial security! She's the mother of Itachi Uchiha and Sasuke! They won't get her back without tens of millions!"

The more Naruto thought about it, the more excited she became, and the bleeding from her wound increased, changing from a slow trickle to a gush.

Fortunately, the Nine-Tails promptly treated Naruto's wrist wound, otherwise, Naruto would have died in the most foolish way possible for a Jinchuriki.

Dying from excitement and bleeding out!

Could a normal Jinchuriki do that?

(One-Tails to Eight-Tails Jinchuriki: Impossible, impossible... Big sis is amazing!)

"Ugh... I get a little excited thinking about becoming a rich person in the future, hehe~!" Naruto Uzumaki felt the Nine-Tails' unspoken complaint and scratched her head with an embarrassed smile.

Perhaps due to the powerful life force of Naruto Uzumaki's bloodline, Mikoto Uchiha did not experience any rejection.

Thump-thump—!

Naruto Uzumaki felt Mikoto Uchiha's heart beating. She retracted the hand formed from Nine-Tails Chakra, healed the wound on her chest, and silently chanted "see no evil," quickly putting her clothes back on.

Naruto Uzumaki was genuinely afraid that if she looked any longer, she wouldn't be able to control the beast within her heart and would pounce on her. (Nine-Tails: Huh? What you want to do has nothing to do with me?)

"food and sex are natural human desires," and Naruto Uzumaki was no exception. Otherwise, she wouldn't have died and come to this world from eating too many weige.

"Hoo~!"

Naruto Uzumaki let out a sigh of relief. Perhaps it was because she had transfused blood to Mikoto Uchiha, but she felt a bit dry-mouthed and thirsty. There was no water to drink nearby, so Naruto Uzumaki had no choice but to drink the blood from the chest cavity of the bear she had killed.

The cold, salty blood mixed with the bear's internal organs, which had been shredded by Wind Release Chakra. As she drank it, Naruto Uzumaki almost choked and spat it out. Suppressing the urge to vomit, she forced down a few mouthfuls, but eventually couldn't hold it in and threw up on the ground.
