Naruto: Two opponents versus Naruto, Konoha panics!

【Om—】

Without warning, Naruto's mental strength finally reached the required level.

[Just a fleeting moment.]

Naruto's consciousness then entered the spiritual world.

[Tick-tock—]

[The sound of dripping water reached Naruto's ears, and he slowly opened his eyes.]

Her deep blue eyes widened slightly, and her pupils dilated.

[The environment changed in the blink of an eye, and even though Naruto was somewhat prepared, he was still taken aback.]

A damp and cold sensation came from beneath my feet.

Looking down, the water on the ground was already above ankle level.

Ahead lay a long, dark passage.

His intuition told him he should move forward.

Naruto didn't hesitate and immediately started walking forward.

The water level has visibly decreased.

Actively enter?

Naruto was slightly taken aback.

Then I thought of myself.

It seems I'm always the one being passive.

And in those life-or-death situations, the big fox couldn't bear to see them suffer and helped him.

meditation......

I never knew meditation could be so effective.

If you increase your mental strength... your resistance to illusions should improve significantly, right?

Naruto frowned as he pondered.

Seeing this, Neji breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems they've moved on.

Moreover, they reaped considerable rewards.

It's hard to believe that this loud and boisterous kid, who seems to be the worst student, is actually sitting there quietly, not daydreaming, but thinking.

Mito Uzumaki: The sewers?

Kushina Uzumaki: "The sewers?"

The sealed space inside Naruto seems to be a little different from theirs.

Onoki: "So this is a sealed space."

Mei Terumi: "This should be considered the spiritual world."

Kurotsuchi: "The sewers... the big fox... could there be a huge cage inside?"

Inside the sealed space, Nine-Tailed Fox sat up straight.

Are we going to meet?

too fast?

Damn it, the me in this black-framed world, hang in there!

Ino Yamanaka: "The Nine-Tails seems really scary... I hope Naruto with black-rimmed glasses won't be scared?"

Azabu-i: "No way, Naruto with black frames would never do that."

Uchiha Izumi: Didn't we meet once before? Naruto with black-rimmed glasses just felt surprised that time.

【Giggle giggle——】

Strange sounds continued to be heard.

Naruto was unaffected by the strange sounds and oppressive environment.

[His steps were quick and firm.]

[His face showed no sign of tension; in fact, there was a hint of anticipation deep in his eyes.]

[Actually, after that brief, ambiguous meeting, Naruto had become very curious about the giant fox.]

What kind of being would be chosen to be sealed within a human body?

What kind of being would Hashirama Senju consider a weapon of war capable of balancing the power of the various ninja villages?

[Not long after.]

Naruto arrived at the end of the passageway.

The environment is no longer oppressive.

But it also added a touch of eeriness.

Suddenly.

A faint sense of crisis crept into my heart.

"Get lost!"

"Ah~!"

"Damn brat, that stinky fox is on the other side!!!"

"Hey! Hey! Hey!"

"That fox that smells terrible!"

"You did this on purpose, didn't you?!"

"If you want to bully a Jinchuriki, do it yourself!"

"You didn't give him any guidance and then deliberately connected him to the sealed space, what do you mean by that?!"

"Want to come out and fight?!"

【"......"

Naruto covered his ears, his brow furrowed slightly.

The sound was sharp and loud.

[The sound came from another passageway in front of us.]

The owner of the voice seemed to be a chatterbox, and apparently didn't have a good relationship with the big fox.

"Damn that fox!"

"Hey, kid, you're going the wrong way!"

"Go back the way you came!!!"

"Get out of here!"

"I can already smell your body odor!"

Gaaaaaah!

Gaara suddenly opened his eyes.

Temari and Kankuro were startled.

Then, Gaara looked toward the source of the sound.

Looking at Naruto on the large screen with its black border.

He was stunned for a moment.

Then, he tilted his head and went back to sleep.

A black-framed world?

That's fine.

Damn fox!

[I knew we'd been at odds for so many years, so this sudden call to a meeting with me couldn't be anything good!]

【"snort."】

"The weakest of the tailed beasts loves to shout and yell the most."

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the passageway behind them.

【"roll!"】

【Om—】

Shukaku refused to join the chat group.

[The next moment.]

Naruto has returned to his starting position.

Naruto: "..."

【I see.】

That voice just now belonged to Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, from Sunagakure.

His jinchūriki must be quite pitiful, right?

[Also... the relationship between the big fox and it seems to be quite strained; they even seem to fight whenever they meet.]

The main point of contention should be the number of tails?

[Probably. Historical records describe it as having nine tails.]

【Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, is a creature with only one tail.】

The big fox seems to judge strength by the number of tails it has.

The Great Fox has the most tails, while Shukaku has the fewest.

Yugito Nii: "Huh? Tailed beasts? A meeting?"

Yugito Nii: "Is this even possible?"

Mei Terumi: "After all, it's a tailed beast, so it's normal for it to be a little special."

Onoki: "This is the first time I've ever heard of something like this."

Sakura Haruno: "So, Naruto was taken by Kurama to Shukaku... which is Gaara's sealing space?"

Temari: "It shouldn't be. As I just said, it's about connecting to the spiritual world... which is what you call a meeting."

Ino Yamanaka: "Pfft~ I didn't expect tailed beasts to be so interesting~"

Shukaku: "You damn fox, I'll fuck you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shukaku was silenced.

And the ban lasted for quite a while.

It's not just because the content it's about is against the rules.

Another reason is that its voice is aggressive.

The sound coming from the large black-framed screen just now made many people cover their ears.

It felt like needles were pricking my brain.

Naruto with black frames is right.

The jinchūriki of Shukaku is absolutely pitiful.

Temari and Kankuro exchanged a glance.

Then they both looked at Gaara.

No wonder Gaara acted this way...

That kind of sound is unbearable even after just a short while.

Gaara has been listening to this for so many years.

Thinking about the underworld actions of the biological father.

Kankuro and Temari were the ones who truly understood Gaara's pain.

Nine Lama (Yang): "It's finally peaceful here."

Nine-Tailed Man (Yang): "One with only one tail has no right to speak."

ah--!!!

Inside the sealed space, Shukaku was so angry that his mouth was full of sand.

Unfortunately, it can't interfere with Gaara right now.

Therefore, Shukaku could only sulk in silence.

He was yelling and screaming wildly.

a long time.

Shukaku suddenly paused, startled.

Then the corners of her mouth started to twitch uncontrollably.

"Gaara~"

"Gaara~"

"Wake up!"

In a daze, Gaara heard a very familiar voice.

However, the voice was very gentle.

This sound, which Gaara could never have imagined even if he racked his brains, filled his mind.

ga-

Gaara suddenly opened his eyes.

The gentle, motherly voice of Shukaku still echoed in my mind.

"Gaara~ Wake up~"

"Time to get up and go back to sleep~"
