Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 297 No, Boss, Uehara Naraku misjudged you (Fourth update! Thanks to the dark-skinned master)

While inside Kushina Uzumaki, Kurama was also contemplating.

Actually, mutual destruction is also a good option, because it allows for rebirth; it just means enjoying less happiness and committing fewer sins for a period of time.

Unfortunately, it couldn't even manage to perish together with others back then.

Kushina Uzumaki, a pure-blooded princess of the Uzumaki clan, not only possesses a vast amount of chakra, but is also proficient in all sorts of bizarre sealing techniques, easily binding and disciplining the fully-formed Nine-Tails within her.

Now that Nine-Tails has a new landlord, they can finally go down together.

However, right now, the Gedo Mazo is right outside that can absorb its chakra. If it dies, it will never have a chance to be reborn!

Kurama had no choice but to reluctantly agree and decided to help Naruto Uzumaki temporarily, at least to teach him how to borrow his chakra.

"Then I'll head out!"

Naruto Uzumaki suddenly clenched his fists.

The next moment, Naruto Uzumaki disappeared from this spiritual world, leaving only Kushina Uzumaki and Kurama (the Nine-Tails) still facing off in this space.

After seeing Naruto disappear, Kushina's gentle expression gradually faded, and she transformed back into a mother wanting to protect her child in front of Kurama.

"Nine-tailed Fox".

Kushina Uzumaki stared intently at Kurama, her eyes filled with malice, and said, "I see it. The hatred within you seems to be growing deeper!"

Kurama's gaze was equally gloomy as he said, "If it weren't for you Jinchūriki, why do you think hatred would have swelled up like this!"

How happy it was in the Land of Fire back then!

Because the Nine-Tails possesses a vast amount of chakra, few in the entire ninja world dare to provoke it. It can eat whatever it wants and play however it wants every day.

Until one day, a guy named Uchiha Madara appeared in the ninja world.

This guy named Uchiha Madara used genjutsu to control it and make it fight a bastard named Senju Hashirama. As a result, Uchiha Madara lost his own people and even tricked it before he died. From then on, Kurama began its life as a tenant.

How could the Nine-Tails' hatred not swell!

Kushina Uzumaki clearly understood this as well. She sighed softly and said, "Forget it, these are all things of the past. From now on, just get along well with Naruto! I happen to still have some chakra left, so I'll help you get rid of this chakra of hatred!"

"Are you... even human?"

Kurama gritted its teeth, staring intently at Kushina Uzumaki before it, and roared, "You damned woman, don't you know that the stronger the hatred of the Tailed Beasts, the stronger our power becomes?"

"You've taken the wrong road."

Kushina Uzumaki's gaze was icy cold.

At this moment, she is a mother with a firm will.

Kushina Uzumaki coldly watched the blood-like chakra bubbles gradually rising from Kurama's body, and said in a chilling voice, "This hateful and evil chakra will affect Naruto, and will plunge Naruto into darkness..."

"The darkness within that brat has been born!"

The Nine-Tails' eyes widened as it stared intently at Kushina Uzumaki, its voice dark as it said, "Kushina Uzumaki, do you think your son's life is the same as yours?"

From a young age, that brat was isolated and brainwashed. It wasn't until he was twelve that he discovered his true identity and the truth of the world. If it weren't for that bastard Minato Namikaze that day, he would have become one with me long ago!

"..."

Kushina Uzumaki remained silent for a while.

After a moment, Kushina Uzumaki suddenly shook her head and said, "No matter what you say, my decision will not change! I believe Naruto will break through his darkness himself, but your hatred and evil must not be allowed to grow! Adamantine Sealing Chains!"

After saying that, Kushina Uzumaki closed her hands, and countless golden chains spread out from her body and tightly inserted into the Nine-Tails' body!

The next moment, these golden chains forcibly pulled another nine-tailed fox, even more terrifying in appearance, out of the nine-tailed fox's body. Its body was covered with blood-red bubbles!

Kushina Uzumaki slammed her hand onto the Nine-Tails' body and said in a deep voice, "Nine-Tails, let me use my last bit of chakra to perish together with your hatred!"

Kushina Uzumaki mustered all her strength and swung her fist, smashing it into pieces as the Nine-Tails, which was filled with hatred!

As for the real Nine-Tails in the spiritual space, watching its hatred perish together with Kushina Uzumaki, it began to curse, "Kushina Uzumaki, you're still such an idiot!"

As long as the Tailed Beasts haven't accepted their Jinchūriki, even if our hatred dissipates now, it will eventually resurface!

Unfortunately, Kushina Uzumaki will never hear it again.

Within this space, only the lonely Nine-Tails remained.

After a long while, the Nine-Tails slowly closed its claws, lowered its head, and said, "Fine, consider this the price I paid for killing you back then. I'll forgive you this time."

Outside the battlefield.

The enormous Nine-Tailed Fox's true form began to gradually shrink.

Just as everyone was watching in astonishment as the Nine-Tails' body rapidly shrank until it finally transformed into Naruto Uzumaki, who was covered in a golden chakra cloak!

"That is..."

Tsunade stared at the scene in disbelief, her eyes fixed on Naruto Uzumaki as he reappeared. This brat's reappearance was simply too astonishing!

The surging chakra aura almost instantly swept over everything around it!

Anyone who sees Naruto Uzumaki in his current state cannot help but feel a little frightened. His golden chakra cloak is completely different from his previous blood-red tailed beast cloak, and is even more terrifying than that chakra cloak.

In particular, Naruto Uzumaki is currently in a very rational state.

When Naruto saw Tsunade, he waved at her, "Grandma Tsunade! It's me!"

"..."

As Tsunade sensed Naruto's presence, her mind gradually calmed down: "Naruto... has he finally succeeded in controlling the Nine-Tails?"

Now Konoha has a renewed hope of victory.

No, at least, Konoha can now control the situation on one side.

Because the enemy standing in front of them, Nagato, still had that arrogant look on his face, as if Naruto's successful transformation into Tailed Beast Mode made no difference to him.

Nagato looked down at Naruto Uzumaki, who was shrouded in golden chakra, and said in a low voice, "If you were a tailed beast, I might actually find it troublesome, but in your Jinchuriki form, I'll gladly accept the Nine-Tails' chakra!"

Nagato suddenly stretched out his palm towards Naruto Uzumaki and shouted in a deep voice, "Universal Pull!"

A powerful gravitational force emanated from Nagato's palm!

Naruto's body flew towards them involuntarily, but this time he was not panicked at all. Golden hands emerged from his golden chakra cloak and quickly condensed into Rasengan!

As these golden hands approached Nagato, they suddenly tried to press the Rasengan in their hands onto Nagato's body!

"Shinra Tensei!"

Nagato had no choice but to change his technique. A repulsive force suddenly emanated from his hand, aiming to blow Naruto away!

This time, however, the power of his Shinra Tensei was too weak!

Naruto's giant chakra hand gripped the Gedo Mazo tightly, resolutely resisting Nagato's Shinra Tensei!

The next moment, the repulsive force of Shinra Tensei rebounded and sent Nagato flying!

However, Nagato did not give up easily. He controlled the Gedo Mazo to slap Naruto Uzumaki, who was grabbing it, and sent him flying!

"Is this the power you've gained?"

Nagato slowly stood up, gazing at Naruto Uzumaki, who had also risen at the same time, and calmly said, "What an interesting power... but this power is only interesting."

"Yeah?"

Naruto Uzumaki clapped his hands dismissively, pointed into the distance, and suddenly said, "I can sense that there are other people spying on this battlefield... Are those people also members of Akatsuki? Are they spying on you, or on us?"

"Um?"

Nagato couldn't help but look in the direction he was pointing.

The location they were looking at was precisely where Uehara Naraku and his group were hiding.

Spectator area.

Uehara Naraku's hand instantly landed on Namikaze Minato's body, and the two of them suddenly disappeared from the battlefield, leaving only Yakushi Kabuto and Uchiha Obito.

"I almost forgot, the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode can sense malice."

Before leaving, Uehara Naraku only left one sentence, whispering, "Whoever harbors ill will towards Uzumaki Naruto, go and deal with them! Anyway, I'm a kind person, and I have no malicious intent!"

Kabuto, who was left behind: "..."

Obito Uchiha, who was left behind: "..."

You clearly harbor malice towards everyone in the ninja world!

Just as Kabuto and Obito were feeling helpless, Obito gave them a new order from Naraku Uehara.

"Alright, now that we've been discovered, it's your turn to step in!"

Now that they've been discovered, let's take this opportunity to join the battle, since the fight is almost over anyway.

"Yes, Lord Naraku."

After answering, Kabuto slowly pushed up his glasses and stood up, revealing himself. Obito Uchiha, who was hiding next to Kabuto, also slowly stood up, revealing himself.

These two people, who had been hiding and spying in this area since the start of the Konoha War, finally revealed themselves.

next moment.

Obito Uchiha reached out his hand, grabbed Kabuto Yakushi's body, and pulled him into the Kamui dimension.

On the battlefield.

A spacetime vortex slowly opened.

Obito Uchiha and Kabuto Yakushi appeared one after the other.

Nagato frowned slightly at this sight. He ignored his nemesis, Obito Uchiha, and stared intently at Kabuto Yakushi, saying in a deep voice, "Kabuto Yakushi, you are a spy sent by Obito Uchiha to join Akatsuki!"

"Really..."

Kabuto adjusted his glasses and chuckled, saying, "I never expected to be discovered by the boss at this time!"

Kabuto's smile widened as he continued, "However, I'm not Obito's spy; I'm just an undercover agent for Lord Orochimaru."

Orochimaru…

Upon hearing this name, everyone involuntarily frowned. Both Konoha and Nagato clearly loathed it.

Tsunade slowly clenched her fists, walked up, and said in a deep voice, "It seems that the rumor that Orochimaru died in the experiment has always been a lie spread by you!"

"A scourge can leave a legacy of harm for a thousand years. No wonder that bastard Orochimaru couldn't possibly die so easily!"

"hehe…"

The pharmacist curled the corners of his lips into a smile, then opened his palm and said, "But if I don't do this, how can I possibly join Akatsuki?"

Kabuto, having said this, smiled and looked at Nagato, saying, "Why don't you try to recall who recommended me to join Akatsuki?"

"Uehara misjudged you..."

Nagato's expression was not very good.

If he remembered correctly, Uehara Naraku recruited and won over many people for Akatsuki, and these disloyal guys were bound to cause problems!

Kabuto Yakushi couldn't help but push up his glasses, laughing as he continued, "No, it should be said that Uehara Naraku misjudged you... He often touts your strength and your dreams, painstakingly recruiting and winning over many people!"

As Kabuto finished speaking, he couldn't help but glance around before continuing, "It's a pity that Uehara Naraku recruited so many people to join Akatsuki for the sake of the leader, but it seems the leader didn't bring anyone else with him?"

Kabuto, glancing at Nagato's grim face, chuckled and continued, "How fortunate... If it weren't for the fact that only the leader is left, I wouldn't dare show my face here!"

Two more chapters to go...
