Whatever, I'll Handle It

"Of course, you want to open the Box of Ultimate Bliss, and I won't stop you."

Uzumaki Shixia also wanted to see just how powerful this legendary ninja tool really was.

Hearing Sixia's words, Mui expressed his heartfelt gratitude: "Thank you!"

If not for Sixia's help, even three or five years from now, he might still have been unable to obtain a Tailed Beast and gather enough Chakra to open the Box of Ultimate Bliss.

It was equivalent to Sixia helping him achieve his life's goal.

Led by Mui, the group arrived deep within Kusagakure, atop a cliff close to the ocean.

Reaching this spot, Sixia could already see the Box of Ultimate Bliss, which was nearly two or three stories tall.

"What is that?"

When Karin saw that ninja tool, she felt a sense of heart palpitations for no apparent reason.

That item seemed extremely dangerous!

Sixia said casually: "That is the ninja tool of the Sage of Six Paths, the Box of Ultimate Bliss."

The Box of Ultimate Bliss was enormous, a massive black box comparable in size to a small three-story building.

It was pitch black all over, and on its four sides were four eerie masks symbolizing "joy," "anger," "sorrow," and "happiness."

Even before being used, this ninja tool gave people a deep sense of oppression.

Mui asked with a serious expression: "Lord Sixia, where is the Tailed Beast?"

Sixia asked as casually as if he were sightseeing: "Where should the Tailed Beast be placed?"

Pointing to the huge sealing formula not far away, Mui said: "Just place the Tailed Beast right in the center of the sealing formula."

Hearing this, Sixia arrived at the center of the sealing formula and rapidly formed hand seals!

"Summoning Technique!"

Once the hand seals were complete, he slammed his palm hard against the ground.

"Bang!"

A puff of clean white mist exploded, and wisps of smoke rose.

The massive figure of Three-Tails Isobu appeared within the sealing formula the very next moment, with Sixia standing upon Isobu's spacious back.

"Whoosh-"

Without waiting for Mui's reminder, Sixia used the Body Flicker Technique and vanished directly.

Naturally, Mui did not waste any time; he immediately finished his hand seals and activated the sealing formula.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

In an instant, the massive sealing formula covered the entire body of Three-Tails Isobu.

At that moment, pitch-black chains emerged from all directions, binding the Three-Tails tightly.

Summoned abruptly by Sixia, the Three-Tails was still somewhat dazed, having no idea what had happened.

And then it was directly sealed by a very huge, very bizarre sealing formula!

Even the Nine-Tails wouldn't receive treatment like this, would it?

The Three-Tails quickly grew irritable.

Because the Chakra within its body was rapidly draining away.

As a Chakra-infused living being, even if its Chakra were completely depleted, it could still be reborn through the reaggregation of Chakra after a long passage of time.

However, it had zero desire to kick the bucket right now.

Even if the other party wasn't going to kill it, it didn't want to lose that much Chakra.

"Roar-"

Even while in a sealed state, the Three-Tails still struggled violently, roaring incessantly.

"Whoosh-"

Wrapped in the Lightning Release Armor, Sixia's figure appeared in front of the Three-Tails and appeased it.

"Alright, alright, stop hollering. Isn't it just draining a bit of your Chakra?"

"Once you help me finish my little goal, I guarantee I'll treat you to good food and drinks."

Facing the incomparably terrifying momentum exuding from Sixia, the Three-Tails, which had been roaring endlessly just moments before, backed down at this point.

There was no help for it; not long ago in Kirigakure, it had been given a severe beating by Sixia.

That incident hadn't happened all that long ago, and it hadn't forgotten.

Once the Three-Tails confirmed that Sixia and Mui only wanted its Chakra and not its life,

it could only helplessly choose to compromise.

It couldn't beat them, and it couldn't run away-what else could it do?

After intimidating the Three-Tails for a bit to make it behave,

he now turned his attention to Mui's process of opening the Box of Ultimate Bliss.

A massive amount of Chakra was drawn from the Three-Tails, and this Chakra was quickly channeled through the formula Mui had set up, feeding into the gigantic Box of Ultimate Bliss.

Mui felt extremely excited as he watched the Box of Ultimate Bliss approach full charge.

Karin glared at the box's body, the ominous feeling growing heavier and heavier.

Even Kakuzu, who had been conserving his energy and remaining silent the entire time, looked at the gloomy and terrifying Box of Ultimate Bliss in the distance and couldn't help muttering.

"I have a feeling something's going to happen next..."

"Is this ninja tool really as magical as the legends say?"

"After opening it, can it grant any wish?"

Naturally, Kakuzu's question was directed at Sixia.

Although Sixia had spoken to Mui about this matter not long ago, he hadn't mentioned what would happen after opening the Box of Ultimate Bliss.

Hearing Kakuzu's question, Sixia smiled and said nonchalantly.

"Truly magical. Just watch, no matter what happens-"

"Whatever, I'll handle it."

As Sixia and Kakuzu conversed, the Box of Ultimate Bliss quickly reached the state of impending activation.

"Click, clack-"

From within the Box of Ultimate Bliss came the sounds of mechanical gears turning.

The next moment, a huge mask on the Box of Ultimate Bliss trembled.

Witnessing this scene, Mui approached the Box of Ultimate Bliss beside himself with joy.

He looked at the Box of Ultimate Bliss and shouted loudly.

"Please resurrect my son!"

The moment he voiced his wish, the massive mask that had just been trembling slowly rose.

At that moment, the legendary ninja tool-the Box of Ultimate Bliss-was finally opened.

"Creeak-"

"Bang!"

A huge baffle dropped down, and subsequently, billows of smoke and dust surged upward.

After the massive cloud of smoke and dust dissipated, Karin and Kakuzu watched in shock.

A young man actually stepped out from within the Box of Ultimate Bliss.

Karin opened her small mouth wide in astonishment: "Can this ninja tool really grant any wish?"

Sixia shook his head: "Of course not."

Hearing this, Karin asked doubtfully: "But that ninja..."

She stopped there without continuing, instead hastily shouting out a warning.

"Careful!"

"That thing is not your son!"

"The Chakra on it is very strange!"

Karin's Mind's Eye of the Kagura had already perceived the anomaly!

Yet Mui couldn't listen at all; his eyes held only the son who had walked out from the Box of Ultimate Bliss.

Mui spoke with tear-filled eyes: "Muku! My child!"

Muku, having walked out of the Box of Ultimate Bliss, wore a slightly dazed expression.

Hearing Mui's words, his face also revealed joy.

Alongside that joy came a trace of struggle.

"Father, I..."

Muku didn't know what was wrong with him at this moment.

It felt as though he had been resurrected in some bizarre way.

Yet upon revival, it also felt as though he was no longer himself.

Moreover, his consciousness was rapidly fading away.

Before long, his inner self had been filled with slaughter and destruction.

Mui knew nothing of the trickery behind the Box of Ultimate Bliss, believing instead that his son truly had resurrected!

Fortunately, while he didn't know, Sixia certainly did.

Just as Mui was about to rush forward to embrace his son and thereby trigger his own script-ending demise,

Sixia used a Body Flicker Technique to appear beside Mui, raising a hand to press down on Mui's shoulder.

"Take a close look at whether that really is your son."
