Konoha: Uchiha, I get stronger by causing trouble.

Chapter 120 The Name of the Nine-Tailed Fox

boom!

Kushina punched Chiga on the head again, angrily saying, "Damn it, can't you just listen to me in peace?"

"Okay, okay, I won't tell you, but you can talk, I'm listening!"

Chiga's antics did lighten Kushina's mood, and she told him directly, "Actually, I am the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of Konoha!"

"Oh." Chiga nodded.

Aren't you surprised?

Kushina was taken aback; Chiga's reaction was unexpected.

Chiga asked nonchalantly, "Should I act surprised?"

If Kushina hadn't said it, he would have said he already knew it in his past life.

"How could that be? Was I really that bad at hiding it?"

Kushina was furious. She thought she had kept it a secret very well, but she didn't expect that her own disciple already knew.

Seeing Kushina's confused little eyes, Chiga thought for a moment and gave an explanation.

"Kushina-sensei, after studying sealing techniques with you for so long, I can still see that you possess sealing techniques, and very strong ones at that. Considering the Third Hokage's attitude and the fact that you cannot leave the village, isn't the answer obvious?"

"But what I'm more curious about is why you suddenly told me this, Kushina-sensei. As far as I know, even people like Jiraiya and Tsunade don't know about it."

Upon hearing this, Kushina pouted and said, "I don't know either. The Third Hokage told me to tell you."

"Hmm? Third Hokage."

Chiga frowned slightly. Was this a test?

Like Kushina, Chiga's first reaction was that Hiruzen Sarutobi was testing whether he was loyal to his family or the village.

But upon closer reflection, it doesn't seem like such a big deal if the Uchiha clan finds out about this.

The current Uchiha clan does not have a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan capable of controlling the Nine-Tails.

Moreover, it was the dove-like Uchiha clan in charge who had nothing better to do than go looking for trouble with Kurama.

"Don't think about it. I don't know why the old man asked me to tell you this, but I feel really bad about keeping it from you."

"I feel so much better now that I've said it!"

Kushina laughed.

"By the way, Kushina-sensei, have you ever communicated with Kurama?"

Since we've already talked about the Nine-Tails, Chiga thinks it's a good thing to make Kushina the perfect Jinchuriki.

Moreover, Kushina, or rather, Naruto, is quite similar to Kushina in terms of personality.

Perhaps this will allow Kushina and Kurama to have some fun together.

"Of course!"

Speaking of Kushina, she was filled with anger.

"When I first sealed this thing inside me, I tried to communicate with it peacefully."

"But that bastard has a terrible temper, is stubborn, and arrogant. He keeps calling me a little girl or a brat."

"You know, I'm not a good-tempered person, and we always end up having a bad fight with it."

"Over time, I gave up on that plan."

At this point, Kushina shrugged, indicating that she had no solution.

"I see, Kushina-sensei. Haven't you ever thought about reforming the Nine-Tails and becoming the perfect Jinchūriki?"

Chiga asked.

"That monster isn't so easily reformed!"

Kushina replied.

"Kushina-sensei, your attitude is completely wrong! How can an intelligent being enjoy being called such a derogatory term all the time!"

"Yeah?"

"Yes, I think you should be patient and have a good talk with it!"

When Chiga mentioned the Nine-Tails, Kushina was already slightly tempted.

If she can establish a friendly relationship with Kurama (the Nine-Tails) and become a perfect Jinchūriki, she should be able to leave Konoha, this cage.

But then, remembering her conversation with the Nine-Tails, she immediately turned her head away and said disdainfully:

"I don't want to talk to that grumpy guy, he's as hard as a rock in a latrine!"

"Kushina-sensei, you should try to understand Kurama. It also yearns for freedom, not to be sealed with sealing techniques and used as a tool. Put yourself in its shoes, do you think it would be in a good mood? Besides, I think you should understand its feelings even better."

Kushina was taken aback. Although she was imprisoned in Konoha because of the Nine-Tails, in a way, she was still the Nine-Tails' cage.

"Now that you mention it, I feel even more sorry for it than I am!"

After regaining her senses, Kushina ruffled Chiga's hair in annoyance.

Chiga ignored Kushina's actions and continued:

"Let's have a proper talk with it. For example, find out its name first; the Nine-Tails can't always be called Nine-Tails!"

"It has a name? No way?" Kushina looked at her disciple in confusion.

From the moment they were discovered, the Tailed Beasts were named according to the number of their tails, and few people knew their real names.

Chiga asked, "Do you know about the One-Tailed Beast from the Land of Wind?"

"I know! It's Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast!"

Kushina said without thinking, then realized something and exclaimed, "Oh right, if the One-Tail is called Shukaku, then the Nine-Tail should also have a name."

"Chiga, did you know? Someone from your family controlled it before, and they must have told you its name, right?"

"I don't know, you'll have to ask!"

Chiga did not tell Kushina the name of the Nine-Tails. In his opinion, it would be more meaningful to tell her the name of the Nine-Tails if Kushina asked for it herself.

"I want to wait until you become the perfect Jinchūriki, then the Third Hokage will no longer restrict your freedom!"

"Mmm." A hint of excitement flashed in Kushina's eyes; the freedom to come and go from the village was a huge temptation for her.

Chiga had something else to say: perhaps it was Minato who was restricting her freedom.

However, there's no need to worry about that; Minato's status in the family has always been very low.

"I'm not talking to you anymore. I've decided to talk to Kurama again, but I need to do some preparation before I do. Otherwise, if that guy's chakra leaks out, the Third Hokage will think I'm up to something again."

After being instructed by Chiga, Kushina also had a few ideas and left in a hurry.

After Chiga sent Kushina away, Asuma came over.

"Alright, just stand there and don't come any closer. Just say what you need to say."

Smelling the stench emanating from him, Qianhe frowned and told him to move away before letting him speak.

"What I'm trying to say is, since you're now our mentor, can't we also consider ourselves Kushina-senpai's people?"

"I wouldn't say that!"

Chiga asked疑惑地问道, "What do you want to do?"

"Haha, if I make my old man angry, will that Kushina-senpai stand up for me?"

"This is your family matter. You expect Kushina-sensei to do it? What are you thinking!"

Chiga rolled her eyes at Asuma. This kid really knows how to scheme; he's even plotting against Kushina.
