Chapter 153 Temari In Tamamo Mode, Teaching Ball Rolling
Bullying Shukaku for fun?
When Temari heard Naruto using Shukaku as bait to tempt the Nine-Tails, the corner of her eye twitched slightly.
She couldn't help but think about her younger brother, Gaara. If he knew what was happening, would he regret bringing her here?
However, the thought of being able to bully Shukaku was unexpectedly exciting!
God knows how many nightmares she had endured as a child because of that tailed beast. Even though Shukaku had now reached an agreement with Gaara, the idea of finally getting back at the beast felt satisfying.
"Your name is Temari, right? From now on, you will be my Jinchūriki," Qingqiu Yuzao announced, her large animal pupils locking onto Temari. Her tone was calm, yet commanding.
Before Temari could react, Qingqiu Yuzao transformed entirely into chakra and entered Temari's body.
Caught off guard, Temari could only freeze as a rush of chakra engulfed her. At the same time, Naruto and Temari, now guided by Yuzao's chakra, slowly descended to the ground.
"Don't move! This is the final step! Now... lift your shirt," Naruto said as he formed hand seals, his tone decisive.
"L-lift my shirt?? Here?!" Temari's face flushed as she hesitated, clutching the hem of her clothes.
"This... this doesn't seem appropriate!"
Although she now felt a twinge of regret about agreeing to this arrangement, she also knew she couldn't back out.
After all, the Nine-Tails—the strongest tailed beast and a village's ultimate weapon—had been entrusted to her. Who wouldn't be tempted by such power?
Still, the situation was incredibly awkward. Even more so when she thought about returning to Sunagakure, now hosting one of the Nine-Tails.
"Uh, I'm talking about completing the sealing process! Even with Yuzao cooperating, you still need the seal. Without it, her chakra might influence you," Naruto explained with an exasperated sigh, seeing her hesitation.
Hearing this, Temari turned crimson, the blush spreading all the way to the base of her neck.
She muttered to herself, realizing she didn't have much of a choice. To make matters worse, she was wearing a black skirt today instead of her usual ninja outfit, which made the situation even more embarrassing.
But now that the arrow was notched, it had to be shot.
With a deep breath, Temari gritted her teeth and untied the red belt around her waist.
Temari swore this was the most humiliating moment of her life.
Naruto, on the other hand, didn't share her feelings of embarrassment. He was secretly delighted, feasting his eyes on the scene.
In truth, the seal didn't require direct contact with the skin—but why waste such an opportunity?
"Four Symbols Seal!" Naruto exclaimed as he completed the hand seals and pressed his hand firmly against Temari's lower abdomen.
Under Temari's mortified gaze, the sealing technique activated. Black sealing patterns quickly appeared on her abdomen, glowing faintly before vanishing into her body.
Qingqiu Yuzao's chakra also stabilized and began to integrate within Temari.
Quickly pulling her clothes back into place, Temari's face burned with embarrassment. She avoided Naruto's gaze, staring at the ground nervously.
It was beyond humiliating!
However, inside Temari, Tamamo Aoka wasted no time. She immediately began refining the purest chakra and transferring it to Temari.
The sensation hit Temari like a jolt of electricity. She trembled as a surge of overwhelming power coursed through her body.
In an instant, a chakra cloak, similar to Naruto's Nine-Tails mode, materialized around her.
Black runes appeared across the glowing cloak, and several black magatama marks emerged on her chest and back.
On her face, sleek black markings completed the transformation.
The same Kurama Mode—now debuting on Temari!
"What incredible power!" Temari exclaimed, her voice trembling with excitement. "I feel like I could crush a mountain with ease! Is this the same Nine-Tails mode as Gaara?"
"Of course!" Naruto replied confidently. "Tamamo's strength is on par with the Eight-Tails. Now that you've unlocked Tamamo Mode, you're practically the strongest ninja under the Nine-Tails!"
Naruto looked at the curves and explained with a smile:
"Unfortunately, this is just my arbitrary arrangement.
The so-called success lies in Tamamo, and failure also stems from Tamamo.
If Tamamo agrees, you can indeed access a powerful Tamamo Mode. But if she chooses otherwise, she can become the source of your greatest fear. In other words, you can't escape this bond."
Temari felt conflicted as Naruto's words lingered in her mind.
At the same time, Naruto's eyes flickered as he thought to himself:
Do you really think the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, or Kurama Mode, is so easy to obtain?
It's not something you just inherit without effort. Someone must pave the way and bear the burden upfront—me!
Naruto smirked inwardly. He had the ability to sever the connection at any time, ensuring he maintained control.
"What? Why did the chakra suddenly disappear?"
Temari, who was about to test her newfound strength, looked at the fading chakra aura around her with surprise.
"It's because your current physical fitness isn't strong enough to sustain this state for long.
For your safety, Tamamo deactivated the Tamamo Mode temporarily. However, Tamamo will continue providing you chakra, allowing you to maintain abilities beyond the average Jōnin level," Naruto explained, seeing Temari's confusion.
Even Naruto, who had Uzumaki blood and a natural affinity for chakra, could only maintain Kurama Mode for a few minutes when he first started. Temari, with her ordinary bloodline, was far from reaching that level of endurance.
"Alright, time for the second phase of training.
I noticed you have a Wind Style chakra nature. Let me teach you the most powerful Wind Style ninjutsu," Naruto said, hoping to lift Temari's spirits.
Hearing this, Temari's eyes lit up with excitement.
"The strongest Wind Style ninjutsu?!" she exclaimed, her voice trembling with enthusiasm as she looked at Naruto expectantly.
"Yes, it's a Wind Style technique with the potential to grow into an extraordinary power," Naruto said seriously as he stretched out his hand to begin the demonstration.
"Wait... does it have to be done like this?"
Feeling Naruto's hands guiding hers, Temari's initial excitement turned into awkward hesitation. Her voice became as faint as a mosquito's hum.
"This is an extremely advanced Wind Style ninjutsu. Without hands-on guidance, it's nearly impossible for ordinary people to master. You need to experience it firsthand to understand the essence," Naruto explained with a straight face, though a mischievous glint sparkled in his eyes.
Temari wanted to refuse outright, but she recalled the terms of their agreement. Gritting her teeth, she lowered her head and reluctantly focused on the training.
The art of forming a Rasengan required finding a perfect balance point during chakra rotation while using subtle control techniques to sustain its high-speed motion.
The difficulty was no joke.
Even with her talent for Wind Style, Temari failed repeatedly, her frustration mounting as she struggled to grasp the technique.
Under Naruto's persistent guidance, Temari eventually collapsed to the ground, exhausted and drenched in sweat. She had tried forming the Rasengan with both one hand and two, but the results were disappointing.
For now, mastering the Rasengan seemed out of reach.
"I... I can't do any more today," Temari muttered, her breath ragged and her limbs trembling from exertion.
"Alright, that's enough for now! But be prepared—I'll find you often to continue practicing this ninjutsu," Naruto said, equally winded.
He reached out to help Temari to her feet, subtly leaving a Flying Thunder God seal on her. Then, without further delay, he escorted her home.
You can never be too careful. Preparations must always be in place, Naruto thought to himself as they departed.

Meanwhile, news of the Uchiha family's resurrection and Konoha's developments spread rapidly across the ninja nations.
Among those learning of the situation was Fifth Hokage Sako Uchiha. The revival of the Uchiha clan was a fact too significant to remain hidden, and the information inevitably leaked.
The ninja world, though seemingly peaceful, began stirring with secret schemes and machinations.
Akatsuki Hideout
"Father, Mother... what should I do?
Was I truly wrong in the past?"
Uchiha Itachi sat alone in a dimly lit room, staring blankly at the ceiling. Tears streamed silently down his face as he muttered to himself.
Sako's refusal to mention the matter during their last meeting had been a clear message:
She didn't want him to return to Konoha.
Yet, despite everything, Itachi desperately wanted to see their faces again—just once.
Perhaps this longing was the price he had to pay.
