Anyo walked among the remaining tailed beasts and released his control over them all.
Four-Tails spoke first. "Are we free? I want to go back to Water Curtain Cave."
Five-Tails replied, "I've decided to live in seclusion in the forest."
"Can we finally return to our homeland? It feels like a dream." Seven-Tails stole a glance at Anyo. Having dealt with Anyo before, he was not as optimistic as the other two tailed beasts.
Nine-Tails looked at Eight-Tails, who had fought alongside him earlier, and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"Me? Well..." Eight-Tails thought for a moment before replying, "I'll go back to Bee. I've gotten hooked on that guy's annoying rap. When I was pulled out of his body earlier, I left him some of my chakra. He's still alive. What about you?"
Caught off guard by the question, Nine-Tails instinctively looked toward Naruto, who was in Kushina's arms.
"Finished discussing it?" Anyo spoke. "I'm giving you a chance to speak now. Time is limited, so make your decisions quickly."
"Hmm?" The other tailed beasts who had yet to speak all looked at Anyo. When they noticed his black Rinnegan, even the chakra inside them involuntarily stirred with fear.
Seven-Tails glanced at Three-Tails, who had already left the group, and suddenly understood something. He hurriedly said, "I want to go back to Fū. I've watched that little girl grow up. I've been away for so long this time that I really miss her."
"All right, I agree. Come in."
Anyo's eyes flashed as he activated Hagoromo's dōjutsu, creating a Tailed Beast Vessel out of thin air in his hand.
Seven-Tails fluttered his wings a few times and flew inside of his own accord.
The other tailed beasts looked at one another. Four-Tails let out a strange cry.
