"Humans scattered us to various places back then, and later used us as weapons. It's only temporarily residing in this lake. When did Kirigakure get the right to say who it belongs to?"
Mei Terumi's expression changed.
"But this is the Land of Water, and also the territory of Kirigakure."
So what?
Kurama curled his lip.
Did it attack Kirigakure?
Mei Terumi fell silent.
Although the Three-Tails went berserk once, it was because the seal malfunctioned. As long as no one provokes it, it has remained in the lake.
Zhang Yu looked out of the cave.
"I can take the Three-Tails with me."
Mei Terumi immediately looked up.
"You're going to take it away from the Land of Water?"
This is the simplest way.
"If the Three-Tails leaves, Kirigakure will indeed no longer be threatened."
Mei Terumi bit her lip.
However, if the Three-Tails is taken away, Kirigakure will lose a Tailed Beast.
This was undoubtedly a huge blow to Kirigakure, which had just recovered from the chaos.
Kurama patted Zhang Yu on the head.
"The boss has a way to separate the Tailed Beast."
"As long as one clone is created, the Three-Tails ' main body can remain here."
"A clone?"
Mei Terumi was taken aback.
"That's right."
Kurama said, "Boss, you can separate the Three-Tails 'Chakra and condense it into a clone."
"The clone possesses the Three-Tails ' consciousness and can also use the Three-Tails ' power."
"The main body will not be damaged."
Mei Terumi looked at Zhang Yu.
"If that's the case, why not just differentiate directly?"
"Under normal circumstances, Jinchūriki is needed to perform the sealing."
Zhang Yu said, " Tailed Beast clone that is created must have a container."
"Otherwise, it cannot exist for long."
Mei Terumi's fingers slowly clenched.
She looked at the Three-Tails lying on the ground, then at Zhang Yu.
"What if I become the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tails?"
Kurama raised his head.
"Then we can seal the Three-Tails ' clone inside your body."
Mei Terumi did not speak immediately.
She is the Mizukage.
If Jinchūriki, their strength will increase, and Kirigakure will be able to continue to possess the power of the Three-Tails.
Jinchūriki is not unfamiliar to her.
That represents sealing, control, and loss of freedom.
She looked at her palms and remained silent for a long time.
Finally, Mei Terumi walked up to Zhang Yu and bowed deeply.
" Zhang Yu, please let me become the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tails."
"I'm willing to pay the price to save Kirigakure."
Kurama curled his lip.
"This woman is quite responsible."
Before Zhang Yu could answer, the system interface suddenly appeared before his eyes.
[Ding! A selection quest has been triggered!]
[Option 1: Help Mei Terumi become the Three-Tails Jinchūriki and continue the mission.]
[Reward: 100,000 gold coins.]
[Option 2: Without Mei Terumi Jinchūriki, directly take the Three-Tails to complete the mission.]
[Reward: 100,000 gold coins.]
[Option 3: Use the Super Six Paths Power to create a clone of the Three-Tails, leaving the Three-Tails' true form in Kirigakure.]
[Reward: 100,000 gold coins.]
The rewards for all three choices are exactly the same.
Looking at the options in front of him, Zhang Yu quickly made a decision.
Making Mei Terumi a Jinchūriki would indeed preserve the power of the Three-Tails.
But she will have to bear the burden of the Three-Tails 'Chakra from now on.
Taking the Three-Tails directly would be the simplest option, but it would leave Kirigakure without Tailed Beast.
The third option allows you to complete the mission while preserving the Three-Tails's true form.
Highest returns.
Zhang Yu raised his head.
"I can help you solve the problem of the Three-Tails going berserk."
Mei Terumi straightened up.
"Real?"
But you have to promise me one thing.
"What's up?"
"Representing the Land of Water, we form an alliance with the Land of Fire."
Mei Terumi was slightly taken aback.
Zhang Yu took out an agreement from his ninja tool bag and handed it to her.
"This is an alliance agreement between the Land of Fire and the Land of Water."
"Both sides will promote trade and reduce border conflicts. In the event of a major crisis, the two countries will support each other."
Mei Terumi took the agreement and read it carefully.
The agreement is not complicated.
The Land of Fire provided food, cloth, and various other necessities.
The Land of Water provides seafood, boats, and resources unique to the Land of Water.
Caravans from both sides were allowed to travel freely between them.
Information exchange is also established between ninja villages.
After Mei Terumi looked up and asked:
"Did Tsunade agree to this agreement?"
She knows about it.
"Is the Land of Fire truly willing to cooperate with the Land of Water in the long term?"
"As long as you're willing to sign, leave the rest to me."
Mei Terumi read the agreement again.
Kirigakure is currently in a recovery phase. The Land of Water has abundant resources, but its population and supplies have been affected by the war.
If Kirigakure could establish cooperation with the Land of Fire, it would indeed gain many benefits.
She picked up the pen on the table and signed her name at the end of the agreement.
Mei Terumi.
"I promise."
A system prompt then appeared.
[Ding! Selection successful!]
[Complete option three.]
[Reward: 100,000 gold coins.]
[Current gold coin balance: 9.1 million.]
Zhang Yu put away the agreement and walked up to Three-Tails.
The Three-Tails had just been beaten up, and now it lay obediently on the ground, not daring to raise its head too high.
" Isobu."
Zhang Yu spoke.
The Three-Tails ' body trembled.
"I am here."
"From now on, we'll stay in the same lake."
"You must not act recklessly, nor should you launch a preemptive attack on Kirigakure."
Three-Tails Fox nodded quickly.
"No problem."
Kurama added from the side:
"If you dare to back out, the boss will send you back to the mountains."
The Three-Tails immediately pressed its head to the ground.
I promise I won't go back on my word.
Zhang Yu raised his hands.
The Six Paths Power within his body circulated rapidly.
Strands of Chakra were extracted from the Three-Tails ' enormous body.
A blue light shone on the shell of the Three-Tails turtle.
Mei Terumi stood to the side and clearly saw that Zhang Yu forcibly extracted that enormous amount of Chakra, yet the Three-Tails showed no signs of weakness.
Blue Chakra continued to gather.
The lake water churned and surged.
A deep rumble filled the air.
Three-Tails looked at Zhang Yu nervously.
"Boss, I won't be drained dry, will I?"
"Won't."
Zhang Yu answered while controlling his Chakra.
"It's just creating a clone."
"The main body will not be damaged."
Chakra rapidly compressed in front of Zhang Yu.
A blue figure gradually took shape.
First, the tortoise shell.
Then came three tails.
Finally, a miniature Three-Tails, about the size of a palm, landed in Zhang Yu's hand.
It looks like a small turtle, with three tails swaying gently behind it.
The miniature Three-Tails opened its eyes, first looking at Zhang Yu, then at its enormous main body in the distance.
"How did I get so small?"
"Come with me from now on."
Zhang Yu held it in his palm.
You're in charge of watching the store.
"Watching the store?"
The miniature Three-Tails turtle's head retracted into its shell.
"I am the Three-Tails."
Kurama walked over and tapped its shell with its paw.
"The boss is giving you the opportunity to mind the shop."
"The tavern has food, drinks, and even a place to sleep."
The miniature Three-Tails immediately poked its head out.
"Is there anything good to eat?"
"Have."
Zhang Yu picked it up and threw it directly into his ninja tool bag.
"Then I'll go."
