Naruto: After Unifying the Shinobi World, I Invaded the Parallel Shinobi World

From the moment their consciousness entered, all five senses were completely immersed in it.

Da da

The two walked aimlessly through the dim, damp space.

Naruto looked at Nagato with a puzzled expression.

"Big brother, where is this place? How did we suddenly get here?"

Why do I have this strange feeling of familiarity with this place?

In response to Naruto's question, Nagato patiently explained.

"This is the space sealed by the Bagua, the seal on your stomach. To be precise, we are in the sealed space within your consciousness."

"Is this what I was talking about, the space where my body serves as a container?"

Naruto was somewhat taken aback and found it hard to accept.

"That's right, that's one way to understand it."

"And what about the fox spirit?"

"Hehe, you can't call it a demon fox here. It's a very cute little fox named Nine-Tailed Fox."

Nagato spoke with a gentle smile.

"Nine Lamas?"

Naruto was puzzled as to why the demon fox, known for its brutality, had such a strange name.

Seeing Naruto's questioning gaze, Nagato stroked his blond hair.

"Naruto, they are actually innocent too. They live in areas far from humans, but humans covet their power and use genjutsu, sealing techniques, and other means to control them and use them for their own purposes, even at the cost of their dignity and freedom."

"So gradually, they also developed hatred towards humans."

Deep within the realm of consciousness, Kurama, upon hearing Nagato's words, slightly raised its eyelids, glanced disdainfully at their location, and then lowered its gaze again.

Although it was arrogant, it was clear that it wasn't as calm as it appeared at that moment.

Naruto understood after hearing Nagato's explanation.

"They sound innocent, but they shouldn't have hurt so many humans under any circumstances, right?"

"At first, they wanted to coexist peacefully with humans, but humans always imprisoned them in various ways, and over time the conflict intensified."

These are deductions made by Nagato based on information sent by the Emperor.

"So where is it now?"

"Hehe, follow me."

Nagato sensed the Nine-Tails' aura and approached it step by step.

Naruto's heartbeat quickened as he approached Kurama.

The situation took an unexpected turn, and when the colossal, towering iron pillar came into view, Naruto's heart pounded at its highest point.

Behind it, only a faint outline could be seen. Its body was as large as a mountain, as towering as a peak, and its nine tails were like nine enormous dragons, dancing erratically in the air, blotting out the sky and the sun.

What terrified Naruto even more were its eyes, like two enormous lanterns, radiating a blood-red light that sent chills down his spine.

The fact that the Nine-Tails was simply lying there without saying a word put immense pressure on him!

"You are Kurama?"

Chapter 49 The seal is broken, Minato appears.

"Nine Lamas?"

The nine-tailed fox smirked, radiating a terrifying aura.

"Who gave you permission to call me that?!"

"Weren't you just calling me a fox demon?"

When the Nine-Tails stood up, it scared Naruto so much he peed his pants.

"Ahhh? Big brother, help me!"

"You mean this thing has been inside me since I was a baby?"

"How did something so big get inside my body?"

Naruto was on the verge of tears as the opponent's claws gripped the pillar tightly, the long nails closing in on him.

However, when it was still two inches away, it was finally stopped by the seal.

Kurama, seeing its Jinchūriki in such a pathetic state, scoffed disdainfully.

"Alright, Kurama, you should know what's going on outside. Let me be frank with you, I want to cooperate with you."

The Nine-Tails' gaze fell upon Nagato, and the sight of his signature red hair made it unable to resist baring its teeth.

Unfortunately, this move didn't scare Nagato.

"I'll give you your freedom. You'll cooperate with our empire to build a teleportation channel. All you need to do is contribute your chakra. Of course, it won't be for nothing. Once our two realms are connected, you can learn Sage Mode from the Kurama within our empire."

Kurama (the Nine-Tails) refused to accept Nagato's offer.

"You humans are the most cunning. You talk so nicely about freedom, but then you bind me to your fate with a word like 'cooperation'!"

Nagato smiled and did not refute what it said.

Tailed beasts are indeed a treasure trove; they're like perpetual motion machines. Their chakra accumulation speed is countless times faster than that of a single ninja, and even the Uzumaki clan is far inferior to them.

With the empire undergoing rapid internal development, their chakra power is naturally a strategic treasure, and it's impossible to easily allow them to gain their freedom.

However, they weren't conscripted 24/7 within the empire; their maximum working hours were 12 hours a day, and they were treated to good food and drink afterward. This was unlike being inside a Jinchūriki's body, where they were sealed and unable to move freely, and were constantly forced to give up their power without compensation.

"Nine Lama, have you forgotten the reason you were created?"

Nagato narrowed his eyes slightly.

Nine Lamas was stunned for a moment, then became even more furious.

"You're not qualified to talk to me about these things!"

"Since that's the case, then I'll slowly let you experience the love from the Empire in the future!"

Nagato's eyes slowly transformed into Rinnegan.

"Wait! Wait! Everything is negotiable! You should have said so sooner!"

The Nine-Tailed Fox was startled the moment it saw those eyes; it really didn't want to be a puppet anymore!

That feeling of going crazy out of control is so unbearable!

You should have told me you had the Rinnegan!

"I choose to join the Empire! I join the Empire!"

Nine-Tails nodded repeatedly to indicate its willingness.

Nagato's expression finally eased slightly.

"Those who understand the times are wise, Nine Lama, you will be honored for the choice you made today."

The Nine-Tailed Fox, however, paid no heed; its mind was already plotting its escape.

"Naruto, relax, I'm about to release the Nine-Tails from inside you!"

The instant he entered this space, Nagato had already devised a plan to perfectly extract the tailed beast.

As long as Naruto relaxes and doesn't cause trouble when Kurama goes out, there will be no harm to the Jinchūriki.

"Ok!"

Naruto nodded

Outside, Nagato separated a wisp of his consciousness to begin releasing the Bagua seal on Naruto's stomach.

The people outside stopped chatting and all turned their attention to Naruto and Nagato.

Within the realm of consciousness, Nagato also formed hand seals, ensuring that the seal was activated both internally and externally to completely eliminate the powerful chakra emanating from the Nine-Tails from affecting Naruto in the first instance.

"Eight Trigrams Seal - Released!"

"The technique of extracting external paths!"

Nagato is currently using a grafting method, immediately transferring the Nine-Tails into his own body the moment the seal within Naruto is broken.

This is also the main reason he came to the consciousness space.

Naruto watched as the gate sealing the Nine-Tails slowly opened, and a familiar chakra began to spread and sweep across his body.

That was the chakra that had been disrupted during his usual training!

"Hehehe! You brat from the Uzumaki family! You're still too naive! How could I, your great master, easily fall into your human trap again?"

The Nine-Tailed Fox roared, preparing to break free of the seal.

Nagato shook his head; this Nine-Tails was truly naive and innocent.

Just as he was about to activate his Rinnegan, a familiar yellow flash suddenly appeared, and then the sealed gate was sealed again.

Naruto and Nagato both stared blankly at the man who had appeared out of nowhere.

"This is a spiritual state."

"He is Minato Namikaze!"

Nagato glanced at the two of them, then consciously withdrew from the consciousness space.

Within the realm of consciousness, seeing Nagato leave Minato finally brought a slight sigh of relief.

The oppressive aura emanating from the other party was too strong. I wonder how he got here. Was he planning to take down the tailed beasts?

Is he friend or foe? Was Naruto deceived? But considering the timeline, the Nine-Tails' seal should have loosened around the last two years.

Furthermore, the opponent's red hair confirms they are a pure-blooded member of the Uzumaki clan. With the Nine-Tails being so important, and the village protecting them, Naruto will definitely be safe.

"Why worry about something as trivial as this? The most important thing right now is to take a good look at your son!"

Minato glanced at the now-grown Naruto, and a hint of relief finally appeared in his eyes.
