Naruto: Starting with the Ten Kage Techniques, Sukuna Jinchuriki

Chapter 97 The Eight Trigrams Seal and the Plan to Sever the Nine-Tailed Fox

The birth of a new Jinchūriki often means the death of the previous Jinchūriki.

In other words, Kushina's desire to become the new Nine-Tails Jinchuriki means that the previous Jinchuriki, Mito Uzumaki, will die.

However, Fushiko did not refute Kushina's seemingly bursting laughter.

Because they had already found a win-win idea.

"Grandma Mito, do you agree with my idea?"

Fu Heiyao was slightly surprised.

This stemmed from an idea that came about a year ago.

Because Nawaki had been forced to seal half of his body, the elderly Mito had to start researching sealing techniques again in his later years.

Fu Heiyao, going along with the flow, revealed his idea of ​​superimposing the two Four Symbols Seals.

The Eight Trigrams Seal, the original seal of Naruto, allows him to draw power from the tailed beasts through the gaps between the two seals without constantly suppressing them within him.

Since Mito was going to be busy anyway, Fukuroko simply gave her a direction and got some free labor.

The result was naturally good; Mito actually figured it out in a year.

Although it's not very mature, it has been successfully applied to rope trees.

Of course, the Eight Trigrams Seal alone is not enough.

It is merely a sufficiently secure seal; it cannot save the life of a Jinchuriki who has lost their Tailed Beast.

The most crucial method to save Mito's life while making Kushina the new Jinchūriki is still Fushiko's soul-splitting technique.

Since losing a tailed beast would lead to death, wouldn't it be better to keep some of them?

The fully evolved Nine-Tails is too powerful; even during the Warring States period, it was the undisputed number three.

Although it is far behind the top two and is also restrained, its terrifying stats still allow it to be ranked among the super-shadow level.

Despite having faith in Kushina, Kuroko's belief ultimately proved too fragile in the face of overwhelming power.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Fu Heiyao decided to follow the example of splitting the Yin and Yang Nine-Tailed Fox in the original work.

First, cut off half of the power, dividing the Nine-Tails' power in two. This will be better for both sides.

The power that was originally a natural disaster, though still formidable after being divided, is at least no longer overwhelmingly terrifying.

Kushina and Mito were both pure-blooded Uzumaki. One was born with special chakra that could suppress the Nine-Tails, and the other was a fully-fledged Uzumaki.

The two of them were perfectly able to adapt to the Nine-Tails, whose terror level had been halved.

This not only solves the problem of Kushina's potential berserk state, but also prevents Mito from dying prematurely, allowing her to live to a ripe old age.

This method is undoubtedly a win-win situation; the only risk is Fu Heiyao's strength.

Can he sever the soul of the Nine-Tails?

Although Fukuyo's slashes have the ability to cut through souls, the Nine-Tails is ultimately different.

For the sake of Konoha's stability, Mito did not agree.

Originally, Fukuyo had planned to slowly wear down Mito until she died, but unexpectedly, there was a turning point.

Judging from Kushina's words, Mito has agreed!

"She agreed. It was Nawaki-nii who convinced Grandma to make the decision." Kushina's tone was filled with heartache for Mito.

It's heartbreaking that Mito, an elderly woman who's nearing death, can't be put at ease.

Fu Heiyao was not surprised.

The Satoru within the Rope Tree is indeed a big problem.

Rather than saying he was sealed by Nawaki like a tailed beast, it's more accurate to say he actively merged with Nawaki.

Even the seal couldn't completely isolate him, and occasionally some Yin Release chakra would leak out, eroding his body.

Fortunately, Rope Tree is tough, and Fukuro often uses him to practice Soul Release, which allows him to suppress it effectively and even steal the abilities belonging to Enlightenment.

However, this is only a temporary measure. To completely resolve the issue of enlightenment requires extremely high attainments in both the soul and the seal.

In terms of sealing, Mito is undoubtedly the strongest, but in terms of souls, apart from Tobirama who died young, only Fushiko is the authority.

Although he only had a superficial understanding, he believed that practice leads to truth, and he truly used his skills to sever the soul of the enlightened one.

If the plan succeeds, Mito can buy a few more years, and even carefully perceive the outline of the soul during the process of Fushiko cutting the Nine-Tails' soul, so that she can better help Nawaki fix the seal in her body.

Kushina will also adapt to the Nine-Tails' power in advance, just as Fukuko planned.

With the help of Fushiko Kuroyo, Kushina's future might surpass hers.

After much deliberation, Mito decided to take a risk.

"So, what do you plan to do then?"

Kushina couldn't help but ask curiously, "Will the Nine-Tails transfer directly into my body?"

Fukuyo only told her to cut off the Nine-Tails so that she and Grandma Mito could become Jinchuriki, but he never told her the detailed plan.

Now that Grandma Mito has agreed to the plan, she should tell me the details, right?

"It's not that complicated. It's just three steps: cut the Nine-Tails, defeat the Nine-Tails, force it into your body, and then seal it."

Fu Heiya shrugged.

What more could you ask for? Just use your strength to send the brick flying.

"And we still need to defeat the Nine-Tails?"

Kushina's previously confident expression faded somewhat, and she couldn't help but worry, "The power of the Nine-Tails is not as simple as you think."

""

Although Kushina continued to trust Fushiko in terms of strategy, Kurama was a different story.

That was the power of natural disaster.

As the next Jinchūriki, Kushina was responsible for transferring the core of the Nine-Tails. Naturally, she had entered the sealed space inside the water corpse beforehand and met the Nine-Tails.

The chakra was as hot and aggressive as lava, and the power was immense and capable of destroying the world.

It would be a miracle if Kushina wasn't afraid.

The only consolation was that the Vajra Chains were very effective at binding the Nine-Tailed Fox.

The Nine-Tails was tightly bound by Grandma Mito's Vajra Chains.

So, Kushina isn't afraid of being transferred as planned, but it's hard to say what will happen if she has to fight Kurama.

"Don't worry, I'm the strongest, I'm guaranteed to win," Fu Heiyou said confidently, then pressed Kushina's head down to reassure her.

"And don't pretend that Grandma Mito doesn't exist. She will help me restrain the Nine-Tails. I will only be responsible for cutting it."

Kushina immediately felt relieved when she heard that Grandma Mito would help.

"Let's not talk about that anymore." Fu Heiyao took the initiative to change the somewhat serious topic. "Let's show off our training results over the past few months and see who has made more progress."

This is a little game the two of them played while researching the Flying Thunder God Rabbit, and they would evaluate it every few months.

Whoever makes the most progress and whose research on ninjutsu or sealing techniques is the most interesting wins.

The winner can make one small, reasonable request to the other person, and the loser is not allowed to refuse.

"That's exactly what I was thinking." Kushina became interested, shaking her head as if to shake off her recent worries.

This is one of her greatest strengths; as long as she stays by Fu Heiyao's side, she can put her worries behind her at any time.

"Hmph, you're definitely going to lose this time!" Kushina sneered triumphantly.

In her opinion, Fu Heiyao simply wouldn't have time to study those "messy" things on the battlefield.

"I've had an idea lately that's just as good as your Shadow Space."

Fu Heiyao was a little surprised. "You really dare to say that, Little Tomato."

"Since neither of us is willing to submit to the other, let's settle this with our skills." Fu Heiyao chuckled.

After he finished speaking, his wine-red Sharingan eyes turned slightly, and a pupil power completely opposite to that of the Sharingan shone forth.

Kushina, who already had a soft spot for Fushiko Kuroko, was instantly captivated by the gentleness and charm that his eyes inadvertently revealed.

A moment later, Fukuyo stopped the illusion, and Kushina regained her senses.

"Illusion!?" Kushina wiped her drool under Fushiko's disdainful gaze.

"Don't look at me like that. It was your eyes that seduced me first."

Kushina let out a sob, feeling somewhat ashamed.

In the village, all the girls are beautiful and irresistible to boys, but why is it the complete opposite with her?

If things continue like this, how will she ever win over Obsidian?

"A genjutsu that infuses the Sharingan with a reverse technique." Fukuko looked at Kushina, a playful expression on his face. "What score would you give it, Kushina-sensei?"

"very!"

Kushina couldn't help but say.

Although reason and soul are screaming, the brain is out of control!

Fushiko was not surprised by Kushina's infatuated behavior.

This was a byproduct of his research while treating the Sharingan that was depleting his vision.

Most of the Sharingan's genjutsu are negative, but once reversed, they turn into positive things like charm and attraction.

Based on this, the Sharingan genjutsu naturally became the true Eye of Love.

A single glare can not only increase favorability, but can even inspire beautiful dreams.

With this move, Fu Heiyao felt he could even cosplay Sasuke from Road to Ninja and capture the hearts of young girls at first glance.

Moreover, Kushina, who is stubborn but soft-hearted, has almost zero resistance to him.

"Little Kushina, how boring." Seeing that he had defeated Kushina with just a little trick, Fukuyo was somewhat disheartened.

"Hikaru, can you only use this trick on me?"

However, Kushina's reaction was somewhat unexpected by Fushiko.

The once energetic girl suddenly looked a bit downcast, her eyebrows drooping and her eyes filled with a pleading look.

Fu Heiyao was stunned.

He even checked the Sharingan's power with a bit of a daze.

After discovering that it wasn't a problem with the Sharingan, Fushiko began to sense Kushina's emotions through telepathy.

"I'm not trying to restrict you, I'm just... a little scared."

Kushina lowered her head, her soft little hands tightly gripping the hem of her clothes.

Kushina actually knew everything, including that she had a slightly violent temper and couldn't leave the village.

Every time Fu Heiyao left the village, she felt both worried and terrified.

She was worried that something might happen to Fu Heiyao on the way, and that she wouldn't be able to help him. She was also worried that Fu Heiyao might change his mind because of this.

She couldn't bear that blow, and didn't even dare to think about it.

Even though Fu Heiyao had already talked to her about it, these kinds of things still inevitably kept popping into her mind.

That's why, after learning that Fushiguro was famous and popular, she disregarded her shy personality and made a grand entrance, rushing into Fushiguro's arms.

They did everything possible to occupy every inch of space around Fu Heiyao.

Whether it's an ethereal title or a real, tangible status, she wants it all!

This subtle psychological state reached its peak when he saw his Sharingan eyes, which resembled those of a succubus.

Unease, anxiety, fear...

Fu Heiyao's expression changed slightly.

He even considered immediately agreeing to Kushina's request, since he had never intended to use the Reversed Sharingan.

On the one hand, the reversal technique consumes twice the energy of the regular technique; on the other hand, this move is almost useless against seasoned veterans.

As someone who prioritizes strength, I'm too lazy to use Obsidian Fu. Yeah, that's it.

However, Fu Heiyao ultimately couldn't bring himself to say it; such words were too weak.

Even if you say it out loud, it's just like trying to quench your thirst with a mirage.

"Kushina, this anxious and uncertain look doesn't seem like you at all." Fukuyo's wine-red eyes drew close to Kushina's azure eyes, which resembled those of a lost fawn. His tone was gentle but not comforting, yet it carried a hint of encouragement.

"You have to fight for what you like. Do you remember our promise?"

"If I defeat you, I can make a request that you can't refuse!" Kushina said that phrase she always had on her lips.

However, this time it seems a little different; its weight has become much heavier.

"Let's formally establish the agreement." Fu Heiyao extended his little finger.

Kushina's previously somewhat confused eyes regained their resolve.

The process of regaining her resolve after feeling lost is like steelmaking, where impurities are removed through the breaking process, making her stronger.

She extended her finger and made a pinky promise with Fu Heiyao.

The two did not mention their past agreements or promises, but at the moment they pinky swear, it was as if they had returned to the time when they made those joking promises.

At that time, the two had only known each other for a short time.

An invisible force seemed to bear witness to this agreement.

"Then it's a deal!" Kushina's eyes sparkled, and she became radiant.

Even the words of encouragement Fu Heiyao gave her before she first left the village were not as powerful as the words he spoke now.

Never before had Kushina felt so firmly chosen, as if some force had connected their hearts.

"That was agreed upon a long time ago." Fu Heiyao took a deep breath and changed the subject. "Alright, let me see the creativity and inspiration you're talking about that's comparable to the Shadow Space."

"Then you'd better watch closely!" Kushina's excitement was palpable, her face full of triumphant joy.

"Kushina!"

Just then, two clear female voices suddenly came from outside the door.
