"untie!"

Kushina Uzumaki raised one hand and released the seal on the Nine-Tails.

In an instant, the chains binding the Nine-Tails broke and disappeared.

Immediately following, the Nine-Tails roared, unleashing a massive burst of Nine-Tails chakra. The crimson chakra instantly covered the seal, rapidly dissolving the remaining seal power like lava.

Immediately afterwards, one of Nine-Tailed Fox's claws broke free from the wooden stake, and then it pulled out all the stakes that were embedded in its abdomen and in each of its tails.

boom!

As the Nine-Tailed Fox landed, its fierce gaze fell upon Hoshino Hideichi and his companions. The next moment, a whooshing sound rang out, and its tails, like massive spears, hurtled towards them.

But the next moment, one after another, Vajra chains emerged from the ground, binding the Nine-Tailed Fox's tail, limbs, and body.

Kushina Uzumaki gritted her teeth and tried her best to restrain the Nine-Tails, causing the Adamantine Chains to snap and crack.

"Kushina, your power is insufficient!"

The nine-tailed creature growled.

Kushina Uzumaki scoffed, "Nine-Tails, I'm not afraid of you now!"

At that moment, Hoshino Hideichi shouted, "Minato-sensei!"

"learn!"

Having already made preparations, Minato Namikaze entered Sage Mode, his figure vanishing from his original spot in a flash and appearing above Kurama's head, his Rasengan expanding dramatically.

The nine-tailed beast raised its head and opened its mouth to gather a tailed beast ball.

Immediately, fiery Netherworld Locks shot out from behind Hoshino Shizuka's back, wrapping around the Nine-Tails' body, binding its mouth, and forcefully interrupting the Nine-Tails' condensation of the Tailed Beast Ball.

Immediately afterwards, a massive Rasengan crashed down.

Rumble!

The Nine-Tails was immediately knocked to the ground by Minato.

Immediately, a thick chain shot out from Hoshino Shizuka's abdomen and pierced into Kurama's body.

"This guy..."

Nine-Tails looked at Hoshino-shita Shuichi with surprise.

His chakra was not only greatly affected and difficult to gather, but he also felt a sense of palpitation.

At that moment, Hoshino Shuichi grabbed the chain extending from his abdomen and pulled hard.

"A technique to seal the soul..."

The nine-tailed fox growled and struggled, "Don't even think about it!"

"Behave yourself!"

Kushina Uzumaki roared and used all her strength to pull against Kurama.

At the same time, Minato Namikaze's Wind Release: Rasengan appeared in his hand.

The moment he let go, Minato Namikaze disappeared from Kurama's body.

Rumble!

The Wind Release: Rasengan expanded, and its powerful attack rendered Kurama unable to compete with Hoshino and Kushina.

At this moment, Kurama was extremely shocked.

The kid who was seriously injured by him last time has now gained such power.

"hateful……"

The Nine-Tails, attacked by the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, was completely unable to move for a moment.

Meanwhile, Hoshino Shuichi immediately seized the opportunity to extract the Nine-Tails' soul and split it in two.

After splitting the Nine-Tails in two, Hoshinoichi's Fire Netherworld Lock immediately released the Nine-Tails' yang half and bound it entirely to the yin half.

"Teacher, prepare to reseal!"

Hoshino Shuichi immediately reminded him.

Minato Namikaze, standing next to Kushina Uzumaki, nodded: "Don't worry, we're all prepared."

Xingxia Xiu nodded, and then his figure disappeared with a bang.

But the Fire Netherworld Lock did not disappear; instead, it yanked rapidly, pulling the Nine-Tailed Yin Half-Body away.

Kushina Uzumaki's body outside the body.

Hoshino Hideaki leaped into the air, the Fire Netherworld Lock rattling violently. The Nine-Tailed Fox was forcibly pulled from Kushina's body, its form rapidly expanding as it roared angrily, "You wretched brat, how dare you..."

"Behave yourself!"

Hoshinobi Hideichi gave a soft shout, and the Eight-Tails' chakra appeared on his body. Then, six tails appeared and quickly extended, wrapping around the Nine-Tails' Yin half and further binding him.

"That guy with the Eight-Tails..."

Nine-Tails was surprised again.

At this moment, Hoshino Shuichi was also surprised by the special nature of the tailed beasts.

He extracted the soul of the Nine-Tails and split it in two.

However, after the Yin Nine-Tails was pulled out of Kushina's body, it automatically condensed into a substantial flesh and blood body.

Immediately, Xingxia Xiuyi created a shadow clone.

The shadow clone drew his sword, wielding the sealing scroll brought by Hoshinoichi, and leaped up behind the Nine-Tails. With a fierce slash, empowered by the Xuanbi Ancient God Seal, he used the Blue Flame Vacuum Slash to sever a section of the Nine-Tails' tail.

"You bastard..."

Yin Jiuwei was extremely angry.

Meanwhile, Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, who had already resealed themselves, watched this scene in astonishment.

"Shuichi, what are you doing?"

Kushina Uzumaki asked curiously.

Hoshino Hideaki clasped his hands together and laughed, "To study the Nine-Tails' cells."

After saying that, he pulled the chains, drawing the nine-tailed fox into his body.

snort~

The Nine-Tails' powerful chakra corroded his physical body, causing Hoshino Shuichi to frown slightly as he felt a numbing sensation in his abdomen.

Fortunately, his physique was strong enough that he resealed the Bagua seal, and the feeling quickly disappeared.

Xingxia Xiu let out a long sigh and laughed, "Perfectly done!"

Kushina Uzumaki laughed, "With only half of the Nine-Tails left, the pressure on me is much less!"

She was able to completely restrain the Nine-Tails with half of its power, and no longer needed to worry about it causing trouble inside her.

Hoshita Shuichi took the sealing scroll from the clone, released the clone, and said, "Next is to master the Nine-Tails' chakra."

"We'll cooperate just like we did today."

"I will restrain the Nine-Tails, Minato-sensei will be responsible for attacking the Nine-Tails, and you, my wife, will take the opportunity to seize the Nine-Tails' chakra."

"With our strength, this step is not difficult at all."

"The key is the malice contained within the Nine-Tails' chakra, and that's something you, Master's wife, will have to contend with yourself."

Kushina Uzumaki immediately nodded solemnly, raised her fist, and said, "I won't let you down!"

Hoshino Hideichi smiled and said, "Minato-sensei also needs help, and it's very crucial."

Minato Namikaze nodded; he completely understood what Shuichi Hoshino was saying.

When seizing the Nine-Tails' chakra, he was in charge of the offensive, while when fighting against the Nine-Tails' malice, the support he needed to give Kushina was spiritual!

"Shuichi, where are you over here?"

Minato Namikaze asked, "Do you need our help?"

Hoshino Shizuka grinned, revealing her teeth, "I can do it myself. Compared to the Nine-Tails, I'm far more ferocious!"

"Where can I find it!"

Kushina Uzumaki put her arm around Shuichi Hoshita's shoulder and laughed heartily, "Our Shuichi is the best! Otherwise, how could so many girls like him?"

Hideaki Hoshino was momentarily embarrassed and immediately sought help from Minato Namikaze.

Minato Namikaze scratched his head and chuckled awkwardly, "We've been busy for so long, we must be tired. Let's go back and eat, and continue our training tomorrow."

Hoshino Hideaki quickly raised his hand: "That's right, I'm starving! That Nine-Tails guy is really exhausting!"

With her attention diverted, Kushina Uzumaki immediately began planning what dish to cook after releasing Hoshino Shuichi.

……

Hoshino and his two companions went home to cook dinner, while Sarutobi Shinsuke naturally took care of the work report.

Inside the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the news.

By separating the Nine-Tails, the threat was reduced, and some unexpected events could be prevented.

Even if one of the Jinchuriki is in trouble, there is still another one.

Judging from Hoshino Shuichi's previous performance, even if he cannot become a perfect Jinchūriki, mastering the power of the Nine-Tails should not be a problem.

In this way, Konoha would have a true tailed beast fighting force.

If Kushina Uzumaki were to also master the power of the Nine-Tails with the help of Shuichi Hoshino, then Konoha would no longer fear the challenges from other ninja villages.

At that moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt much more relaxed, and the pressure from the mysterious man with the kaleidoscope ability disappeared almost entirely.

Everything is developing in a good direction.

Hiruzen Sarutobi pondered to himself, deciding to wait until Kushina Uzumaki mastered the power of the Nine-Tails before sending Minato Namikaze to the front lines.

The Iwa ninja was fickle and unwilling to give up, but he didn't want to waste any more time like this.

The war must end as soon as possible.

This decision was not made out of weakness.

Rather, Konoha already possesses enough interests, and taking over the Land of River this time is sufficient.

If we expand outwards to gain more power, then we will truly have to engage in a life-or-death struggle with Iwagakure and Kumogakure.

But Konoha's strength is not enough right now.

"From now on, I'll leave it to Minato..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed inwardly.

As he got older, he had more to consider and was no longer able to pursue his ambitions.

……

After lunch, Hoshita Shuichi left Minato Namikaze's house and went directly to the experimental base where Kakashi had previously trained in a secret room.

He sat cross-legged, and under the stars, Xiuyi lowered his eyes.

The next moment, his spiritual chakra body appeared within the Bagua seal.

There are already three iron cages here, holding Yin Jiuwei, Yiwei, and Siwei respectively.

The three tailed beasts, who were bickering, immediately stopped and looked over when they sensed Hoshino Shuichi.

Shukaku and Yotsuba were already used to it, their gazes calm.

Yin Jiuwei had just been imprisoned, her eyes were fierce, and her tails were waving as if she was about to launch an attack at any moment.

Hoshita Hideichi remained calm in the face of such gazes: "Kurama, welcome to this place. I believe you will come to like it."

Yin Jiuwei's gaze sharpened: "You brat, you actually know my name."

He turned to look at Shukaku and the Four-Tailed Beast: "Did you tell him my name?"

Shukaku, lying there lazily, said, "You stinky fox, we're not that bored."

"But it must be said, this guy knows quite a lot."

Four-Tails looked at Hoshino and said, "You've even dragged that stinky fox into this mess. Looks like you're planning to collect all the tailed beasts ahead of time?"

Yin Jiuwei was startled upon hearing this.

When asked about the Four-Tails, Hoshino Hideichi smiled and said, "I already said last time that I will only keep half of you, in preparation for the appearance of the Ten-Tails."

Yin Jiuwei was startled again, turning to look at Yiwei and Siwei: "You even told him this?"

Shukaku sneered, "Shut up, you stinking fox. He knows that himself."

Nine-Tails looked at Hoshinoichi: "Who... exactly are you?"

Hoshita Shuichi said mysteriously, "A person who knows destiny!"

"A person who defies fate!"

All three tailed beasts frowned.

Hoshita Shuichi asked, "Do you know about the stone tablet left behind by the Sage of Six Paths?"

Four-tailed Fox said, "We don't know anything about stone tablets."

Hoshino Shuuichi said, "It's a stone tablet from the Uchiha clan, originating from the Sage of Six Paths."

"The Uchiha clan are descendants of Indra, the eldest son of the Sage of Six Paths."

"That stone tablet is located in the Uchiha clan today. Only the Sharingan can decipher its contents. The stronger the eye power, the more contents one can see."

Yin Jiuwei said, "So, you learned about the Ten-Tails from inside?"

Hoshino Shuichi did not answer, but continued, "According to the inscription on the stone tablet, by collecting the nine tailed beasts and becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, one can cast the Infinite Tsukuyomi, the ultimate genjutsu, which will pull everyone into an illusion and create a world without war."

The three tailed beasts' fur stood on end upon hearing this.

Yin Jiuwei shouted, "The old man Liudao would never leave behind something like this."

Four-Tails said solemnly, "These words are completely different from the old man's philosophy. To trap everyone in an illusion? What a joke!"

Everyone says that the tailed beasts are evil, but he thinks that idea is even more evil.

Shukaku said, "This stone tablet was definitely not left by the old man of the Six Paths."

"The Uchiha clan, it should be Indra, right?"

"This guy is not easy to get along with."

Yin Jiuwei thought of Uchiha Madara and sneered, "The Uchiha are a clan born evil."

Looking at the three tailed beasts, Hoshino said, "Regardless of whether the contents of this stone tablet were left by the Sage of Six Paths, the contents of the Ten-Tails are correct, and some people have already begun to carry out the contents of the stone tablet."

"Therefore, you are all targets."

"Of course, I didn't bring you in to protect you out of pity; that would be too hypocritical."

"It's not that I can resist the power of the Rinnegan, but that I don't want to fall into an illusion and live a life of emptiness and uncertainty."

"We should say we're on the same side... provided you trust me, of course."

"It's okay if you don't believe me. Just stay here quietly and don't bother me."

Sincerity is the ultimate weapon, and the three tailed beasts fell silent.

With a thought, Hoshinoichi loosened the Fire Nether Locks on Kurama and the others, and then said, "Shukaku, Son Goku, consider what I'm about to say."

"Sometimes resistance may not necessarily change anything, but if you don't resist, nothing will change."

Shukaku and the Four-Tails remained silent.

Nine-Tails sneered, "Don't think that we'll obediently cooperate with you and lend you our power just because of this."

Hoshita Hideichi chuckled, "Kurama, I don't need your cooperation or anything from you to use your power. I'll just take it myself!"

Yin Jiuwei's gaze was fierce: "Without the cooperation of those two, you are no match for me!"

Hoshita Hideichi raised an eyebrow: "Then let's give it a try!"

With that, he waved his hand, and the iron gate imprisoning the Nine-Tails opened.

The next moment, the Nine-Tails' chakra surged out like a tidal wave, crashing towards Hoshino Shuichi.

Hoshino Hideaki raised his hand, and a blue blade of light covered his palm. As he raised his hand, the light extended and cleaved the surging Nine-Tails chakra in two with a loud bang.

Bang bang bang!

Three shadow clones appeared on either side of Hoshino Shizuka.

Meanwhile, in the other two cages, the four-tailed fox said, "You stinky raccoon, how long do you think that nine-tailed fox can hold out?"

Shukaku said, "One minute. If it exceeds one minute, I'll admit that Kurama is stronger than me."

Four-Tails said, "30 seconds? After all, you only have half your power left!"

Yin Jiuwei was furious upon hearing their bet: "You two good-for-nothings underestimate me too much, even though I'm only half a body now!"
