Chapter 10: Kyubi

Late at night.

I am still alone at home.

Naruto looked at the dilapidated ceiling and closed his eyes.

With the movement of his mind, his body had appeared in the dark underground dungeon. The dripping sound of water makes the sealed space of the spiritual world more dangerous.

…Snap…Snap…Snap…

Naruto stepped on the water-stained stone slabs step by step, gradually approaching the depths of the water prison. The candlelight illuminated his face: "Nine-Tails, have you thought about what I mentioned last time?"

Inside the bars deep inside the water dungeon, the nine-tailed fox opened its eyes, stared at the yellow-haired kid in front of it whose eyes were almost the same size as its own, and snorted: "Hmph, kid, do you think I'm your pet?"

"Kyuubi, you think too much."

Naruto stopped outside the water prison's fence and stretched out his hand: "With your size, you are too unqualified to be a pet..."

This sentence instantly angered the Nine-Tailed Fox!

The demon fox stood up from the floor, lowered its huge head, and slowly approached the fence, spitting out hot air from between its sharp teeth!

Even in its rage, the Nine-Tailed Fox still maintained its dignity as a tailed beast: "You sharp-tongued brat!"

The scarlet negative chakra turned into bubbles, and under the control of the Nine-Tails, it continued to overflow the sealed cage and erode this sealed space...

The Nine-Tails leaks the tailed beast's chakra almost every day. It has been trying to use this chakra to guide the negative emotions of the Jinchūriki!

"Sealing Technique: Devour!"

Naruto raised his palm nonchalantly, glanced at the Nine-Tails, and swallowed up all the scarlet chakra in the sealed space!

Under the effect of the sealing technique, the tailed beast's chakra will soon be purified into chakra that he can use!

Naruto looked at the bloodshot eyes of the Nine-Tails and calmly spread out his palm: "Nine-Tails, have you thought about it now? Do you choose to actively provide me with chakra, or let me absorb your chakra?"

"…"

Kyuubi suddenly woke up from the shock of seeing the seal swallowing up just now. After hearing what he said, he suppressed his emotions that were about to go berserk: "Kid, as long as you are willing to unlock the seal, you can use my chakra at will!"

The last time, Naruto showed an arrogant attitude towards the Nine-Tailed Fox, which made the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox quite unhappy. It was too lazy to pay attention to the ignorant little guy!

Afterwards, it felt a little regretful.

A little guy who doesn't understand much, no matter how you look at it, is always more easily deceived than Mito and Kushina!

As long as it can help him unlock the Four Symbols Seal on the cage, it will be able to use chakra to erode Naruto's consciousness at a faster rate. That will be its chance to escape!

Moreover, this brat was obviously eager for the chakra of the tailed beasts. He wanted to use the chakra of the tailed beasts!

The previous two Nine-Tails Jinchūriki, Mito and Kushina, disdained to use the power of the Nine-Tails, and there was no need for it, so the Nine-Tails had no way to start.

Today, the third Nine-Tails Jinchuriki took the initiative to ask for the support of the tailed beast's chakra, although his words were not pleasant and his attitude was insincere...

But if it can get out of trouble...

I can teach him how to be a good boy right away!

However, after Naruto took a look at the Nine-Tails, his brows gradually frowned, he lowered his head and turned to leave the water prison: "Forget it, I'll come back later!"

The Nine-Tailed Fox slammed its claws on the ground angrily, lowered its voice, and roared at the short figure that was going away: "Hey, kid, what do you mean! You wanted to borrow my chakra, and I already promised you!"

"Your eyes are not right..."

Naruto's figure sank into the darkness again: "I still think it's better to just devour your chakra. The chakra that leaked out this time is enough."

"Asshole! Are you kidding me?!"

"I told you, it's your eyes that are wrong..."

The orange-yellow ninja uniform completely disappeared in the corridor of the water prison. In the empty sealed space, his final warning echoed: "Nine-tailed Fox, next time you see me, you'd better be sincere, because I don't really want to devour you completely..."

"…"

The Nine-Tails helplessly stretched out its claws to grab the fence, its teeth tightly clenched at its lips: "Idiot, do you really think you can contain the chakra of the tailed beasts?"

"Even if Minato set up this sealed space for you, it can't hold half of my chakra, a mere twelve-year-old kid..."

What a pity.

There was no one else in the entire sealed space, only the dripping sound of falling water accompanied the most ferocious tailed beast in the ninja world.

Naruto on the bed opened his eyes quietly, he slowly clenched his fists, feeling the chakra and strength refilling his body, closed his eyes again and fell into a deep sleep.

This afternoon, in order to defeat Ebisu, he used Shadow Clone and other techniques that consumed a lot of chakra.

Although he knew that his chakra recovery ability was very strong, in order to ensure that he could pass tomorrow's survival exercise, he had to be absolutely sure.

The only pity is that this time the Nine-Tailed Fox still did not surrender.

In other words, although the Nine-Tailed Fox appeared obedient and was willing to provide chakra, its attitude and expression made Naruto feel very uncomfortable.

In fact, he didn't know what Kyuubi had to do to meet his requirements; but he knew that Kyuubi's current attitude was obviously not in line with his psychological expectations.

Outside the door of this old house.

An old man walked gently down the stairs.

A team of Anbu ninjas followed closely beside him and asked in a low voice, "Sandaime, do you need us to stay here and monitor?"

"That's not necessary."

Hiruzen shook his head and muttered absentmindedly, "I didn't expect that he could control the Nine-Tails' chakra now?"

In order to avoid accidents, Hiruzen plans to test the Four Symbols Seal on Naruto tonight to ensure that the Tailed Beast Chakra in his body will not leak out.

But when he sensed the Nine-Tails' chakra leaking out and was about to rush in, the tailed beast coat that was gradually forming on Naruto's body suddenly disappeared...

The evil chakra also dissipated in the air.

Hiruzen turned around, looked at the team of Anbu ninjas and whispered, "You guys don't need to be on duty around here anymore, go back to the Anbu and report!"

An Anbu ninja suddenly asked a question: "Hokage-sama, Naruto is from the village after all... If we let him go like this..."

Another ANBU ninja obviously knew more information. He said in a deep voice: "And it's not just the spies outside the village who covet his power, even the people in the village..."

Ever since the tailed beast was sealed in Naruto's body, their team of Anbu has been responsible for eliminating enemies who covet the power of the tailed beast, and they have even tracked down some ninjas from the village.

"It doesn't matter, children have to grow up eventually."

Hiruzen waved his hand, signaling them not to be nervous: "I will restrain certain people in the village and no longer allow them to contact Naruto."

"As for the enemies from other ninja villages, I believe Kakashi has enough ability to protect his subordinates."

Only he himself knows the answer.

The most important purpose of this team of Anbu ninja is to monitor whether the Nine-Tails' chakra is leaked; as for those enemies who covet the tailed beasts, they never need to care about them.

Because a truly powerful ninja does not need the power of the tailed beasts at all.
