"I believe you..."
"Good."
Uchiha Minamoto raised his right hand, the contract mark of the [Summoning Technique] ready to go.
"As a rule, I sign a Summoning Contract with tailed beasts..."
After hearing Uchiha Minamoto's explanation, the Seven-Tails, Chōmei, did not reject the contract mark.

And as that portion of chakra vanished.
Chōmei's enormous body shrank considerably at a rate visible to the naked eye.
