However, shortly after Tsunade finished speaking, the out-of-control Nine-Tails suddenly stopped attacking Jiraiya and turned away at an astonishing speed.
Its actions were so sudden that everyone present was puzzled.
Tsunade stared wide-eyed at Kurama's departing figure in disbelief.
Countless questions flashed through her mind, but she couldn't find a reasonable explanation.
Nine-Tails' actions were completely unexpected, as if an invisible force was manipulating everything.
This force seems to have some connection with the ancient tree.
Tsunade couldn't help but cast a questioning look at the ancient tree.
He remained standing there expressionless, seemingly unconcerned about what was happening before him.
A hint of doubt arose in Tsunade's mind, but she couldn't be sure if it really had anything to do with the ancient tree.
If all of this was secretly controlled by Koki, just so he could heal Orochimaru, then how terrifying must that guy be?
"It seems we don't need to take action."
Gu Mu shrugged and gestured with his eyes for Tsunade to continue.
Although Tsunade was speechless, she had already promised Koki to treat Orochimaru, so she couldn't shamelessly go back on her word.
Moreover, Tsunade felt that if she went back on her word, Koki would definitely do something crazy to force her to undergo treatment.
This guy seems to really want Orochimaru to do something for him.
"Tsunade, what's wrong?"
Jiraiya saw that Kurama had controlled Naruto and disappeared at the border of the Land of Fire, but he did not rashly give chase.
They immediately arrived at Tsunade's location.
Little did I know, I was shocked when I looked.
He was fighting a tough battle in front of him, and good heavens, Tsunade was healing the enemy from behind.
Is this because they think they've lived too long?
"I agreed to Kouki's request, on the condition that he help suppress the Nine-Tails, to heal Orochimaru."
Tsunade felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, so she gave a brief description.
Seeing this, Jiraiya had no choice but to stay cautiously by Tsunade's side to prevent any accidents from happening.
The space was quiet for a few breaths.
Seeing that the hostility from the others had lessened, Shizune cautiously asked Gu Mu, "Um, could you give me the pig you have?"
The little pink pig in Gu Mu's arms rolled its eyes and foamed at the mouth. Unable to withstand the immense pressure from Gu Mu, it had already fainted from fright.

Gu Mu glanced at it and then looked at the silent voice that had asked him.
Just one glance was enough to make Jingyin tremble with fear; she always felt that Gu Mu's eyes could devour a human's soul.
However, Gu Mu still returned Tun Tun to Shizune.
The ancient tree, with its impure body, needs neither rest nor food, and is incapable of feeling pain.
This hypocritical way of living left Gu Mu feeling utterly empty inside, like a living dead.
These days may continue for some time.
"Phew~ Alright, from now on, we're even."
Tsunade wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. Orochimaru's hand injury was strange, and she couldn't completely heal it.
However, it can temporarily restore it.
"Princess Tsunade, do you still want to kill me?"
Orochimaru stared at Tsunade with a mocking smile, a smug grin on his face.
He moved his wrists, feeling the strength coming from them, and nodded in satisfaction. The weakness he felt earlier had largely disappeared.
"Tsunade, let's go first. We must inform everyone in Konoha of the news that the Nine-Tails has gone out of control as soon as possible."
Jiraiya stood beside Tsunade and spoke in a serious tone.
He knew that if he stayed here and continued to entangle with Orochimaru, it might delay his important business.
Moreover, they now have an even more important task—to deliver the news of the Nine-Tails' loss of control to the rest of Konoha.
"Ok."
Tsunade nodded, and seeing that this unfamiliar Uncle Koki did not stop her, she couldn't help but feel relieved.
If she really is my uncle, then wouldn't she be my only family in this world?
After Tsunade and Jiraiya disappeared from sight, Koki's expression turned extremely cold.
His eyes held a chilling aura, as if the surrounding air had frozen.
"Orochimaru, shouldn't we get down to business now?" Koki's voice was as cold as ice, devoid of any emotion.
His gaze was fixed on Orochimaru, as if trying to see through Orochimaru's eyes to understand his innermost thoughts.
Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly, a smile playing on his lips: "Of course, resurrection is guaranteed."
However, Koki did not relax because of Orochimaru's answer.
His gaze remained sharp, as if warning the other party that any deception or betrayal would have dire consequences.
Orochimaru sensed Koki's gaze and thought to himself, "This guy is definitely not easy to fool..."
"However, the remains of the Second Mizukage are difficult to find, so the Impure World Reincarnation is probably like opening a blind box, so please don't be in a hurry," Orochimaru suddenly said.
His tone carried a hint of helplessness and regret, as if he felt powerless to do anything about the matter.
As soon as Orochimaru finished speaking, he felt an intense pressure emanating from the ancient tree's body.
This terrifying spiritual pressure caused Orochimaru to break out in a cold sweat.
"Orochimaru, are you courting death?" Koki said coldly, his tone filled with murderous intent.
Orochimaru's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly explained, "Kouki-kun, don't panic, don't panic, I will do my best!!"
This guy's main focus is on the soul.
It's practically the natural nemesis of my own immortality!!
Orochimaru is genuinely a little afraid of Koki now.
He understood that Gu Mu was not someone to be trifled with, and that offending him would likely bring him endless trouble.
"Ahem, I will...we will actively attempt the Impure World Reincarnation. If it succeeds, we will contact you immediately, Mr. Koki."
Orochimaru wiped the sweat from his forehead, his tone somewhat urgent.
He was really sweating profusely.
"Hmph, you know I don't have much time. If you fail at the last moment, I don't mind taking a few people with me to the underworld."
Gu Mu snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with a chilling light, and said coldly, "Come here."
Under Koki's oppressive gaze, Orochimaru felt a chill run down his spine, but he still managed a dry laugh and slowly walked up to Koki, asking with some confusion, "Koki-kun, what is the meaning of this?"
Seeing Orochimaru approach, a cold glint flashed in Koki's eyes, and he instantly grabbed Orochimaru's forehead.
"Lord Orochimaru!!"
When Kabuto saw Orochimaru being attacked, he was shocked and immediately launched an attack on Koki.
His hands quickly formed hand seals, and a powerful surge of chakra erupted from his body.
The palm, covered in blue chakra fluctuations, condensed into a sharp scalpel and thrust towards Gu Mu's back at an extremely fast speed.
However, just as the scalpel was about to pierce the ancient tree, suddenly, a powerful force erupted from the tree's body.
"boom!!"
A loud crash followed, and Kabuto felt an irresistible force surge towards him, sending him flying and crashing heavily to the ground.
"Gu...Gumu-kun?"
Orochimaru swallowed hard, a rare occurrence for him.
Although he was a little nervous, he tried his best to appear calm and composed.
He genuinely knew nothing about the Second Mizukage's corpse.
Just then, Gu Mu's eyes suddenly sharpened, and a powerful aura emanated from him.
Orochimaru was startled; he felt the immense pressure emanating from this aura. Then, an instantaneous, powerful soul pressure materialized like countless purple demons, lunging towards Orochimaru.
These demons hovered above Orochimaru's head, emitting mournful cries.
Orochimaru's face was pale, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He wanted to resist, but found that his body was completely out of his control.
Finally, these demons coalesced into a purple mark on Orochimaru's forehead.
