Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

Because of the previous wars, both Madara and Ryougo had overwhelming power over Kurama.

Even the Nine-Tails was defeated by Madara with just a glance, although it was the Rinnegan's eye technique—Limbo.

But Nine-Tails is still suffering.

If it were the Sage of Six Paths, it would be easier to say, but how long has Madara lived?

They didn't even reach a fraction of the Nine-Tails' size, yet they managed to pin the thousand-year-old Nine-Tails to the ground and polish its shoes.

The Nine-Tailed Fox felt its dignity had been greatly insulted, and its thinking changed. The beast gained intelligence; it became an intelligent beast.

In the past, the Nine-Tails looked down on human ninjutsu. No matter how skilled a ninja was, the Nine-Tails could sweep them away with a single tail strike.

However, after becoming a sentient beast, Kurama (the Nine-Tails) became interested in human ninjutsu.

If tiny humans become powerful by learning ninjutsu, wouldn't the Nine-Tails become even more powerful if it learned ninjutsu?

I need to learn this!

Under the shocked gazes of Kushina and Yamato, Kurama formed hand seals and mobilized the Nine-Tails chakra within Kushina's body.

bang bang bang-

Smoke billowed up, and then thousands of small nine-tailed foxes appeared in the Senju family's training ground.

They were so densely packed together, it looked like there was a fox plague.

Yamato was stunned into silence: "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique? Kurama has actually learned the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique?"

The ANBU members protecting Kushina were just as shocked and numb as Yamato.

The tailed beasts are imitating humans; the savages have become intelligent!

"What's the big deal! I even know Sage Mode. Your human ninjutsu is as easy for me as eating and drinking."

Kurama recalled all its shadow clones, concentrated its chakra towards Kushina's stomach, and then jumped onto Kushina's shoulder while holding a ninjutsu scroll.

Kurama looked at its claws and reflected on itself: "I was too arrogant. The title of the strongest tailed beast only made me look down on everyone."

"I've been standing on a cloud for too long. It was Madara and Hashirama's power that woke me up."

"I am no less than Asura or Indra. From this moment on, I will rely on my own wisdom to reach the old man's level!"

Kushina scratched her head, looking at Kurama: "Kurama, do you want to become the Sage of Six Paths?"

Kurama nodded: "Becoming stronger is an instinct ingrained in every living being, Kushina. Don't you want to become the second Sage of Six Paths?"

"Even though you possess the Rinnegan and I, you are still far from reaching the level of this old man."

"Even Madara needed to gather all nine tailed beasts and the Rinnegan to attain enlightenment!"

Enlightenment!

In the original work, Obito said that the Sage of Six Paths' realm is the realm of enlightenment!

Kushina found a patch of grass to sit on, looked up at the sky and said, "The Sage of Six Paths? That's too far away. Actually, I've always been pushed along by everyone."

"What I really want is for Minato to realize his dream and become Hokage, for Naruto to be born safely from my womb, and for our family to live a peaceful life."

Kurama and Yamato listened as Kushina lowered all her guard and recounted her simple pursuits.

"However, I know this is impossible. I am the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and the village is subconsciously nurturing me to become a weapon of war."

"I think this is the reason I came to Konoha from Uzushio Village! I am Kurama's cage; neither of us can control our own destiny."

"Even becoming the strongest won't change that!"

Nine-Tails wanted to say something, but suddenly sensed someone approaching.

"Kushina, Mikoto's here. I'll excuse myself!"

The Nine-Tails returned to Kushina's stomach.

Kurama doesn't want to see Mikoto because of the child in her womb. Both Kurama and Kushina have guessed that the child in Mikoto's womb is the reincarnation of Indra's chakra.

Then, just like Madara, Kurama hates Madara.

Kushina stood up and saw Mikoto entering the Senju family's training ground.

Mikoto, heavily pregnant, appeared carrying a thick food container; she was there to deliver meals to Kushina as usual.

Kushina rushed over excitedly: "Mikoto, quick, I'm starving!"

Kushina eagerly took the food box from Mikoto and took out the delicious dishes that Mikoto had prepared.

Mikoto smiled and said, "Kushina, you're about to become a mother, how come you still can't settle down?"

Yamato chimed in, "Kushina just used the Wood Golem Technique, which consumes a lot of chakra more intensely than strenuous exercise."

It's okay if you run out of energy, as long as you don't overexert yourself.

But if you run out of chakra, you'll die.

Kushina, however, is a member of the Uzumaki clan, and she possesses powerful vitality. Even after giving birth, she can still wield a sword and kill people.

Mikoto didn't treat Yamato like an outsider, and took out a set of bowls and chopsticks for Yamato: "Child, here, Auntie made you a portion too."

"Thank you, Aunt Mikoto!"

Yamato took the bowl and chopsticks from Mikoto, feeling a warmth in his heart. This feeling of being cared for was something he could never experience at the Root.

Humans are not machines; they are emotional beings. Sometimes, a kind greeting can move someone who has lost everything.

Mikoto is not only gentle and virtuous, but also a great cook. During Kushina's training at the training ground, she would regularly bring Kushina meals.

Kushina didn't have many friends. After Minato took Kakashi and the others to put out the fire, Kushina only had Mikoto as her best friend to talk to.

At Fugaku's request, Mikoto also develops a close relationship with Kushina.

Tobirama and the Anbu members did not restrict Mikoto's contact with Kushina just because she was a member of the Uchiha clan and a relative of Ryoubu.

There is never pure emotion between people; it is always a complex web of interests.

Kushina wanted to stay by Mikoto's side, and Mikoto wanted Kushina to take care of the Uchiha clan.

Each takes what they need.

However, the necessary checks still had to be done. The Hyuga clan of the Anbu discovered the spores in Mikoto's body and secretly removed them without her realizing it.

Because of the spores inside Mikoto's body, the Anbu launched a major search and found that Ryouwu's spores were lurking in the bodies of many ninjas.

They were secretly eliminated, even the spores inside the Inuzuka family's dog, Kuromaru, were removed.

Konoha is very clean now.

Yamato reached out his chopsticks to pick up some food, but Kushina guarded her food, saying, "Go away, go away. You have Hashirama's cells in your body, and you can survive by photosynthesis."

Kushina, how can you be so selfish?

Yamato harbored resentment, saying that relying on photosynthesis meant Yamato wasn't a life form like White Zetsu.

He is still human, and as long as he is human, he needs to replenish his energy.

In contrast, Kushina doesn't need to replenish her energy, thanks to the powerful life force of her Uzumaki clan and the Nine-Tails' chakra.

You can go hungry for a year or two and you won't have any problems.

Mikoto nudged Kushina: "Kushina, don't be so selfish."

Mikoto personally served food to Yamato, which moved Yamato so much that he wanted to call her "Mom".

I almost vomited after taking one bite—it tasted like my mom's cooking!
