In Naruto, build the strongest Hidden Mist Village.

Chapter 167 Sealing the Nine-Tails. Hello, I am Minato Namikaze from Kirigakure.

Just as everyone's attention was focused on Kaguya Naoki, speculating about his next move and future actions, he simply idly stomped the Nine-Tails completely onto the ground.

Then, with a single outstretched hand, countless dark chains extended from it. The Nine-Tails' chakra, which had been so powerful and vigorous that even Hiruzen Sarutobi's desperate efforts had failed to contain, was rendered utterly weak and vulnerable by a sealing technique utterly ineffective after Naoki Kaguya's single strike.

Naoki Kaguya nodded in satisfaction, her Byakugan flashing as she looked at the Seven-Tails, which was about to be completely blocked by Nagato and Jiraiya's combined efforts, and at Obito Uchiha, who was hiding in the surrounding woods, hesitant to make a move.

smiled.

Then he looked at the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Let's get rid of this guy as soon as possible and go celebrate my victory.

I looked up at the ice mirror.

Flying Thunder God.

In an instant, Kaguya Naoki disappeared from his original spot and appeared behind Kushina, who was frantically peering at the Nine-Tails' life force fluctuations.

"Lord Naoki".

Kushina quickly turned back. Her address of "Naoki-sama" was sincere, filled not only with reverence but also with deep gratitude.

She knew this man was going to help her regain the Nine-Tails and continue her life.

"Let's go."

"Go down."

Kushina nodded, and Minato suddenly spoke.

"I'll go as well."

Minato Namikaze smiled.

"Lord Naoki, the eyes of the entire world are surely on you now. Now that you've made your decision, what is there that you can't tell them?"

Seeing Kaguya Naoki nod slightly, Minato Namikaze felt a sense of relief.

Ninety percent of people are often afraid to take the first step, but once they do, every subsequent decision or difficulty becomes incredibly easy.

in fact.

He had another idea in his mind.

From this day forward, it became clear to him that Konoha was unlikely to maintain its organizational structure.

There are only two choices.

Join the Hidden Cloud Village and Hidden Rock Village to form a three-village alliance and defend against the Hidden Mist Village.

or.

Join the Hidden Mist Village and fight against the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Stone Village.

There may seem to be two choices, but in reality, there is only one inevitable outcome.

Aside from the deadly feud with Kumogakure and Iwagakure that I made tonight.

For reasons of self-interest, Konoha absolutely cannot join the alliance between Kumogakure and Iwagakure.

There's no other reason than that the three villages have no basis for trust, and Konoha has become the weakest village in terms of strength, not to mention its geographical location directly facing Kirigakure.

It's not hard to imagine that Konoha would become the absolute front line, facing a terrifying onslaught.

The last flame will die out, and the last hope will be extinguished.

Although thoughts may churn a thousand times, they are but a fleeting moment.

These thoughts swirled in Minato Namikaze's mind before Kaguya Naoki's voice finally reached his ears.

"Let's go then."

As soon as the words were spoken, space flipped, and the three of them appeared on top of the Nine-Tails' body.

He first glanced at the Nine-Tails, who was no longer capable of fighting, with disgust, before finally looking back at Konoha Village.

The sight before his eyes caused him to pause in surprise.

How did it turn out like this?
It didn't look that serious from above, but why?

Minato Namikaze looked at the ruins of the village not far from him without any reaction. This scene, which he had noticed from the air, did not cause him any disturbance.

can.

The village was filled with the bloody corpses of the dead and the agonizing screams of the wounded.

Even he, a veteran of the battlefield, felt an unbearable urge.

The damage was too great.

This is only on the outskirts of Konoha.

If the Nine-Tails were to enter the core of Konoha, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Everyone in Konoha should thank Naoki Kaguya.

Minato Namikaze couldn't help but look up at Naoki Kaguya.

The latter had already gathered up all of the Nine-Tails' chakra.

That's right, it's called "lifting".

In Kushina's eyes, the scene before her was somewhat familiar, somewhat comical, and somewhat terrifying.

Naoki Kaguya used his superb sealing techniques and terrifying chakra reserves to extract all of the Nine-Tails' chakra.

Looking at the familiar sealing technique, Kushina couldn't help but swallow hard.

Is this sealing technique really that powerful and terrifying?

No, no.

It's probably just that the amount of chakra is so terrifying that this sealing technique exhibits such a powerful sealing effect.

Is such that.

As Kushina thought this, she looked at Kaguya Naoki with her Kagura Mind's Eye, a unique ability of the Uzumaki clan.

A sun?
That's right, it's a sun.

Even though Kushina was a member of the Uzumaki clan, her chakra was far inferior to that of Kaguya Naoki.

What kind of monster is this?

Kushina couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"Come quickly."

Naoki Kaguya casually picked it up.

This made Kushina feel somewhat better.

That's right. Such an operation is not only a huge test of chakra and physical strength, but also requires precise control of chakra.
"I have other things to do, and I can't waste any more time with Kurama."

"But don't worry, there will be absolutely no aftereffects. You are also a member of the Uzumaki clan, so check the sealing technique yourself later."

Kushina nodded subconsciously.

After standing in front of Kaguya Naoki, she let him do as he pleased.

Kushina couldn't help but recall Kaguya Naoki's previous inappropriate words.

Too much of a waste of time?

Kushina lowered her head and looked at the familiar Nine-Tails, which was as big as a small mountain.

That's a nine-tailed fox!

This is the Nine-Tails, who has played the role of a nightmare in her past life.

He almost single-handedly defeated the tailed beasts in Konoha.

Previously, the Tailed Beasts were known as the ultimate weapon of the entire world.

The Nine-Tails is the strongest of the tailed beasts and the ultimate weapon among ultimate weapons.

It is a weapon of mass destruction capable of changing the course of a war!
How did she become so insignificant in Naoki Kaguya's words?

Is this the confidence of Kaguya Naoki?
No.

He not only has confidence, but he also has the capital to be confident.

With this thought in mind, Kushina breathed a slight sigh of relief.

If someone is that confident, there shouldn't be a high probability that they or Minato would pose a threat to Kirigakure's safety.

Besides.

It's a good thing that Kaguya Naoki is so powerful!

She, Minato, and Naruto are about to become ninjas of Kirigakure.

Who wouldn't want the place they want to join to be stronger?

Take Konoha as an example. If it were as powerful as it used to be, who would dare to take this opportunity to attack it?
"It's starting, keep your spirits up."

Naoki Kaguya's serious tone brought Kushina back to her senses, who had been gradually relaxing because of Naoki Kaguya's bold and confident words, and made her serious again.

After all, even though Kaguya Naoki was born in Kirigakure, a village that inherited the powerful sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan, and just used a terrifying sealing technique, it doesn't mean anything!

That was just a very simple sealing technique. Even if Kaguya Naoki used her terrifying chakra to achieve a terrifying sealing effect, it doesn't prove anything.

To seal the Nine-Tailed Fox into one's own body, one cannot use a crude sealing technique.

A more advanced Four Symbols Sealing Technique is required.

But it's impossible to learn it in a short time!

After all, he wasn't qualified to learn sealing techniques before becoming the Mizukage.

After becoming the Water Shadow, and gaining the ability to freely manipulate ancient texts...

It's only been a short time.

Moreover, Kaguya Naoki has been quite busy in this short period of time.

Not to mention the reforms that were in full swing and world-renowned, but which Kushina was unaware of.

Just the fact that he conquered two countries in a short period of time, one of which was Sunagakure, a village on par with Konoha and possessing terrifying combat power, shows that Kaguya Naoki was not idle at all.

How could such a person exist?
No.

Wait a minute. Why?

how is this possible.

Kushina asked four questions in a row.

How did you learn that?

Kushina looked at Kaguya Naoki, who had done it so casually, and felt like crying.

If it were just that she knew how, that would be fine, but she seems to have learned it better than her.

At the very least, she couldn't do it so effortlessly.

"It's done."

Naoki Kaguya looked at the seal on Kushina's body and felt very satisfied.

What made him feel even more that he had performed exceptionally well this time was that the Nine-Tails, which had just broken free from the genjutsu world, did not go mad and try to break free of the seal to seek revenge on the Uchiha who had controlled him in the past.

Instead, it simply stayed obediently inside Kushina's body.

She's transgender?

As Kaguya Naoki thought this, Kushina, having just suppressed her overwhelming sense of defeat, looked at her own body and her expression became strange.

It's understandable that the Nine-Tailed Fox is weak.

but.

What's going on with him looking so emaciated?!

She felt this was a good opportunity to subdue the Nine-Tails.

Without hesitation, Kushina, after obtaining Kaguya Naoki's consent, allowed her consciousness to enter her own body.

"Kyuubi."

"Kyuubi."

Nine-Tailed Fox bared its teeth, as if it wanted to curse.

But considering that not long ago, it was walked around like a dog by an Uchiha for half a day, and then cleaved to the ground by Kaguya Naoki and couldn't move at all.

It got even angrier.

I feel like cursing.

I'd rather crawl out and fight again.

But reason and his body, which was almost completely paralyzed from the beating, told him...

Let's leave it for now.

Next time, I'll definitely get my revenge.

These despicable humans!
Damn Uchiha.

That damn Kaguya Naoki.

I'll kill you all sooner or later!
"That damned Kaguya Naoki, that damned Kaguya Naoki!"

On the distant hills, the once confident Obito Uchiha was now furious.

I didn't even glance at it.

That guy beat the Nine-Tails into that state.

Nine-Tails is truly useless.

It's one thing to be unable to defeat Kaguya Naoki, but to lose so miserably that he didn't even have a chance to salvage the situation.

Kushina is useless, and Minato Namikaze is useless too.

They've already defected to the Hidden Mist Village so quickly.

Waste stuff.

The Hidden Stone Village and the Hidden Cloud Village are also useless.

Why don't they even dare to make a move?

It's just Kaguya Naoki. Would it kill you to try and stop it a few times?
"It seems like I really am going to die."

There was a fearless White Zetsu who was very fair.

Then came Obito Uchiha's terrifying gaze.

"Alright, Obito."

Black Zetsu had no choice but to interrupt.

"These things can wait until everything is completely over before we think about them. Right now, you need to decide whether or not to take action to stop Kaguya Naoki."

Obito Uchiha stopped, caught in a dilemma.

Making a move now will naturally have some advantages.

The Nine-Tails within Kushina's body is not yet fully stable. If she makes a move now, she may be able to release the Nine-Tails again!
Although he just called Kurama a piece of trash, Kurama is really not trash; it can be involved with Kaguya Naoki.

Wait, what am I thinking?

I don't need to get involved.

Obito Uchiha skipped the topic and continued to ponder.

Of course, there are also downsides.

If he were to show his face, all the Konoha ninjas would instantly side with Kaguya Naoki.

That's nothing.

It's just a bit of a hassle.

Obito Uchiha suddenly felt that he was too outnumbered and would be at a disadvantage in a fight.

Therefore, no matter the outcome, we must contact Kumogakure and Iwagakure as soon as possible to eliminate Kirigakure, this major threat.

but.

If those insects don't follow orders, it can be quite troublesome.

Let's show our strength.

The best stage is none other than Kaguya Naoki!
As long as he demonstrates his strength here, he doesn't believe those ninja village parasites would dare to disrespect him.

"I made a decision."

Obito Uchiha took a deep breath and spoke earnestly to Black Zetsu.

"This time, we can't run away; we have to try."

"I want to test Kaguya Naoki's strength."

"At the same time, I will demonstrate my strength, the strength to lead the ninjas of Kumogakure and Iwagakure."

So smart?

Black Zetsu felt both relieved and somewhat enlightened.

Was it because Kaguya Naoki put too much pressure on Obito Uchiha?
Indeed, pressure is the driving force for growth.

It's remarkable that someone like Obito Uchiha can actually use his brain.

"I'm going to take action."

"Remember, I won't go all out this time. I'm just testing the waters and showing my muscles."

Black Zetsu said, "I understand."

Just find a way out, it's no big deal.

The key now is to eliminate Kaguya Naoki as soon as possible, as he is likely to affect the Eye of the Moon Project.

Everything else is unimportant!
Including some of Obito Uchiha's minor flaws.

Oh no.

A major problem.

The Uchiha clan is really something else.

Black Zetsu silently scoffed, but a thought popped into his head, prompting him to start thinking seriously.

Perhaps we shouldn't place all our hopes on Obito Uchiha?

Black Zetsu fell into deep thought.

Obito Uchiha is poised to strike.
-
"Is that Minato Namikaze?"

"grown ups.."

Another ninja silently added an adult, leaving the other ninjas slightly dazed.

It feels like so long has passed since those words, "Lord Minato Namikaze," were written together.

"Don't even mention adults, look at all of you!"

A ninja roared.

The others looked over one after another.

"Wait, it's fine if he's there, after all, he's Kushina's husband."

"But why is he wearing the Kirigakure headband?!"

"He's a Konoha ninja, how dare he, how could he!"

The ninjas of Konoha immediately erupted in uproar.

This was the first time they had ever seen such blatant and open betrayal, and naturally they couldn't tolerate it!

Looking at the menacing Konoha ninja, Kaguya Naoki couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

It seems that trying to swallow Konoha whole is still unrealistic.

However, a gentle takeover shouldn't be too difficult, right?
