Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan.

Chapter 174 Extracting the Nine-Tailed Fox (22)

On the trunk of the large tree, Vortex looked down.

That spot was where Fugaku had severed Obito's arm seven years ago. At that time, even he himself hadn't anticipated that Fugaku would die because of it.

Thinking of this, Sora looked at Sasuke, who was still glaring at him angrily.

"In fact, I already told Itachi Uchiha about the identity of the murderer who killed your father during our deal. If you don't believe me, you can go back and ask your brother."

"impossible!"

Upon hearing this, Erzhuzi stood up and looked at Xuanwu Kong, saying, "If my brother knew, he would definitely seek revenge!"

Sora looked at Sasuke and smiled, then, with a mischievous grin, replied, "So, what if it was your ancestor who killed your father?"

Upon hearing this, Erzhuzi was stunned.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kong grabbed Xiao Nan and disappeared into the tree trunk.

When Sasuke came to his senses, Naruto looked at him with a pained expression: "Sasuke... how... are we going to get down?"

The two looked down; the tree was too tall, and Erzhuzi could only unleash a fireball that worked intermittently.

I've never learned how to climb trees or wade in water.

So, up in the tree, the two little ones started muttering to themselves...

"asshole!"

"Shady businessman!"

"You damn old man!"

……

under night.

Uchiha Yun, who had just come out of the Hokage Building, asked, "Hokage-sama, is there something you need from me so late?"

At this moment, Yun thought of the help that Minato had mentioned at noon. Was it because of this that he was called here again at this time?

Minato smiled and said, "I'd like to invite you to my house for a meal, and there are some things Kushina wants to give you."

Kushina?

Yun was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood what Minato meant by "help".

"If a Jinchuriki has their Tailed Beast removed, they will die."

Yun's words made Minato, who was walking ahead, stop. He turned around and looked at him, saying, "What are you thinking? How could you possibly separate the Nine-Tails? Kushina is my wife..."

This made Yun a little embarrassed. Had she guessed wrong?

Perhaps because of Yun's reminder that a Jinchuriki would die if separated from a Tailed Beast, Minato smiled and said, "The Nine-Tails' power doesn't necessarily have to be separated from the Jinchuriki to be used. With Kushina's Adamantine Sealing Chains and your Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, it's possible to forcibly extract it."

Yun understood, used his Sharingan to enter Kushina's seal, and then used his Mangekyou Sharingan to control the Nine-Tails, pulling out and condensing its chakra to create a smaller or one-time-use Nine-Tails.

This... is the help that Minato mentioned earlier.

As for how he did it, in the original story I remember, Kazuma once collected the Nine-Tails' chakra in Konoha during the Nine-Tails' rampage, and then made that child, also named Sora, become another form of Jinchūriki.

As for Minato, in the original story as he remembered it, he split the Nine-Tails in two and sealed them separately inside Naruto and himself.

The effect of the Corpse Demon Sealing Technique might be partly due to this, but the more significant factor is likely its mastery of sealing techniques.

"Let's go. I already spoke with Kushina this afternoon. She agreed to the mission in Kusagakure, otherwise I wouldn't dare to make decisions for her so easily."

With that, Minato gave an awkward laugh and then turned to walk towards his home.

Yun immediately followed behind, while Minato said from the front, "I have read a lot of documents about Uchiha Madara. In his battle with the First Hokage, he once used Susanoo to ensnare the Nine-Tails, which allowed him to contend with the First Hokage's strongest Wood Release ninjutsu."

"Based on this, I thought of the Nine-Tails' power. However, the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki is Kushina now, so I can only achieve that kind of combat power by borrowing it."

Yun chuckled behind him, "Actually, I don't think it's necessary. Although that guy obtained the Hokage's Flying Thunder God Technique, my Body Flicker Technique and reaction time aren't slow either. As for Wood Release, he probably can't reach the level of the First Hokage, right?"

Minato shook his head slightly: "I don't know either... Due to the difference in level, the opponent's Sharingan might mean that Tsukuyomi won't work on you. And you have Amaterasu too, so there's no need to worry."

"But Wood Release... I had Kagami come over this afternoon. Uzumaki Sora's Wood Release is not on the same level as Kagami's. But according to the records, the power of Wood Release is obviously more than that."

As he spoke, Minato stopped and turned around, his face grave: "After all, Kagami's Wood Release came from Danzo's human experiments, while Sora's Wood Release was obtained through a deal with the First Hokage who was in the Pure Land. This is what is most worrying."

Upon hearing this, Yun feigned confusion and asked, "First Generation Lord, you are already in the Pure Land, why would you still make a deal with Uzumaki Sora?"

Minato shrugged. "I'm not sure about that. I wasn't even born when the First Hokage was still alive, and the records in the documents seem a bit vague. The Third Hokage might have known about the First Hokage's personality, but that's not important right now."

Ambiguous statements?

Yun thought about it and understood. The person who recorded it probably didn't want to say that the first generation had a second attribute, so they just mentioned it briefly...

"call……"

Letting out a breath, Minato said solemnly, "What I'm most worried about isn't these known abilities. The reason I discussed with Kushina about lending you some of the Nine-Tails' chakra was also based on this."

"Given the fact that Uzumaki Sora is capable of making transactions, no one can truly know the extent of his power. All we know right now is the power he wields in his dealings with Konoha."

In this world, there are countless ninjas with special bloodlines.

The five great ninja villages all possess such power.

It's been almost seven years since that transaction. If the other party's trading ability had no limitations, then...

Thinking of this, something seemed to flash through Minato's mind for a moment...

"Bang!"

The loud noise inside the house interrupted Minato's thoughts, and by then the two had arrived at Minato's doorstep.

"I just told you not to run around this afternoon, and the moment I turned around you went to play with Sasuke, and you even climbed such a tall tree!"

"If Kai hadn't spotted you during his training, would you two have survived this fall?!"

Kushina's angry voice rang out, and Minato, standing at the door, gave Yun an awkward smile.

"Well, Naruto can sometimes really make Kushina angry. That kid is too naughty."

After opening the door, Minato announced loudly, "I'm back, and I've brought guests with me."

Kushina, who had discussed things with Minato that afternoon, immediately lowered her voice upon hearing the noise, tapped Naruto's forehead, and then came to greet him at the entrance.

"Welcome... Yun, is this your first time visiting my and Minato's house?"

Yun nodded politely and replied with a smile, "This is indeed my first time visiting the Hokage's residence. I must thank the Hokage's wife for this situation."

This nickname made the usually carefree Kushina blush. Although Naruto was almost seven years old, his personality seemed to have remained unchanged.

Yun then followed him into the living room. Naruto, who was facing the wall, secretly turned around and was instantly shocked when he saw Yun: "Brother Yun?! What are you doing here?"

However, before he could run over, Kushina immediately spoke up, "Naruto...!"

The stern voice, like a nemesis, instantly silenced Naruto, who had initially wanted to come over, and he turned back to face the wall.

Kushina sighed. Although she was good at disciplining her son in public, she also knew that Yun was Naruto's idol.

"Come sit down. If you dare climb that tall tree again, I'll... I'll..."

Hesitant to utter any harsh words, Naruto, who had already broken free of his seal, instantly ran over, sat down next to Yun, and pouted, saying, "It's all that bastard uncle named Uzumaki Sora's fault! He left Sasuke and me in the tree and ran off! How awful!"

? ? ? ×2

These words immediately drew the attention of Kushina and Minato, and Naruto, who was being stared at by the three of them, tensed up again.

After a moment, Minato asked in a deep voice, "Why were you with Uzumaki Sora? Why did he put you in the tree?"

Faced with the gazes of the three people, Naruto immediately spilled out everything that had happened that afternoon.

Even the conversation between Uzumaki Sora and Sasuke was recorded word for word.

The ancestors of the Uchiha clan?

As the Hokage, Minato immediately grasped the key point: Itachi's report contained information about the name Black Zetsu.

The name "Kaguya Otsutsuki's Will" was recently linked to the Sage of Six Paths at the Naka Shrine.

If we calculate it that way, he can indeed be considered an ancestor of the Uchiha clan.

but……

That guy really does seem to know everything...

As for leaving the two little brats in the tree, it's probably because they were pestered after I tricked Sasuke and wanted to escape.

Thinking of this, Minato smiled. He had never thought that Uzumaki Sora would be an enemy of Konoha.

After all, the information obtained from the first transaction was enough to save Konoha.

Minato then warned Naruto, "Never act impulsively when you encounter someone so powerful and unfamiliar. I'm sure Itachi will warn Sasuke as well. If the other person hadn't meant you any harm, you'd be dead by now."

Kushina sighed and then went into the kitchen to serve the dishes.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Kushina paused for a moment, then realized, "I almost forgot about Naruto. I also invited Rin and Karin, since their abilities are just in case."

Minato scratched his head, "Actually, another ability of Cloud's Kaleidoscope is regeneration. If we bring them along, what if..."

Kushina glared at Minato, then went to open the door.

Minato, who was being glared at, understood that Rin, being a member of the Uzumaki clan, could indeed provide a layer of protection. Furthermore, Kushina was unaware of Kushina's other eye technique.

"Welcome! Karin, it's been a long time!"

"Aunt Kushina, we met just the day before yesterday."

Amidst the conversation, two women with red hair, one tall and one short, walked in.

Immediately, both of their gazes fell on Yun. Whirlpool Bell and her daughter walked over and bowed at a ninety-degree angle.

After raising her head, Whirlpool Bell said, "I've always wanted to thank you, but I haven't had the chance. I'm truly sorry for bothering you this time."

Yun smiled and replied, "I'm just a guest. It's more appropriate for the Hokage to thank me, since I'm just doing this on a mission."

Minato, standing to the side, smiled and said, "The Uzumaki clan has always been an ally of Konoha, and Karin is now a student at the Ninja Academy. No need to thank me. Please sit down..."

……

After a sumptuous dinner, Minato sent the two children back to their bedroom.

Then, Kushina spoke to Rin about her purpose for the day.

Upon learning that she would be extracting the Nine-Tails' chakra, Rin Uzumaki paused for a moment before replying, "As for sealing techniques, I'm afraid I can only help the Hokage, but if anything unexpected happens, my regenerative abilities can certainly help you."

Kushina nodded: "That's why we need Rin's help, but if everything goes smoothly, it won't be necessary."

Ling smiled and said, "Konoha has provided me with a place to live and a life for the past year or so, and Karin has also entered the Ninja Academy. For me now, I am already very satisfied."

"Don't worry, Kushina. As long as I have enough chakra, you'll be fine. Whether it's stamina, chakra, or injuries, biting me will solve everything."

Minato smiled helplessly. In fact, if the power of the Nine-Tails could really be compared with that of Madara Uchiha, then according to the records, the Nine-Tails could only be controlled, without any surprises.

"Are you ready? If you are, I'll take you to the preparation location."

The three nodded, and in an instant, Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique carried them away, and they reappeared in a cave shrouded by a barrier.

"Although we know the chances of failure are slim, it's better to stay inside the barrier just to be on the safe side."

As Minato spoke, he took out a Flying Thunder God kunai, reached out and stuck it in the center, and the rune array was activated instantly.

At this moment, Kushina looked at Yun and said, "Then... let's begin!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Kushina closed her eyes, and her consciousness sank into the sealed land.

At this moment, Uchiha Yun, who was standing in front of him, also activated his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and appeared at the place where the Nine-Tails was sealed.

……

"Bang!!!"

The moment I opened my eyes, a huge claw slammed heavily onto the sealed prison bars.

A gigantic, enormous head emerged from the shadows, its gaping maw revealing a pair of eyes fixed intently on Uchiha Yun before it.

"Kushina!!! How dare you..."

Kushina, standing to the side, looked at Kurama: "You've lived inside my body for so long, and I only made you pay a little rent last time. Now I need to get it back with interest. Will you pay me or not?"

The Nine-Tails, sealed within the bars, was furious: "What do you take me for?! A parasite?! Kushina, you're asking for death!!"

As it spoke, the Nine-Tails' massive head looked at Yun: "Given the opportunity, do you think the Uchiha clan wouldn't want to possess such an evil power completely?!"

"And what will happen to you, the Jinchuriki, if you lose your Tailed Beast?! Don't you understand?!"

……

Thank you so much, Diern, for the generous donation! I am deeply grateful!

(Is it okay to extract a portion of the Nine-Tails' chakra and seal it here, then use it all at once?)

(After all, Minato split the Nine-Tails in two, and with the sealing technique, plus Uchiha Kumo's eyes and Kushina's Adamantine Sealing Technique.)

(This refers to Sora from the TV series, and the Nine-Tails' chakra generated from Kinkaku and Ginkaku consuming the Nine-Tails. There are two other examples.)

(Just asking, I can fix this tomorrow if it's wrong. My head is spinning, I've been working all day, I'm exhausted...)

I am extremely grateful for Diern's generous donation.
