Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan.

Chapter 255 The Deal with the Tailed Beasts (12 out of 5,000 characters)

At this moment, Nine-Tails' gaze was solemn.

The arrogant, laughing man not far away was the same guy who had once controlled him with his Sharingan.

But everything before him, according to the information that suddenly appeared in his mind, was just an illusion.

No harm of any kind may be caused to the intelligence provider. The authenticity of the intelligence is verified by the transaction space and is bound by contract.

What Nine-Tails didn't mention before is that in this special space, it doesn't even have the ability to block the transmission of half of its consciousness.

Looking at it this way...

The space treated the self and the upper body as a single entity.

"Vortex Sky".

The Nine-Tails' voice rang out: "We are tailed beasts, existing in this world thousands of years ago. Even if we are killed, we will be resurrected after a period of time."

"Intelligence is meaningless to us. Given humanity's long-standing influence over us, we will not help humanity, much less trade with you."

Whirlpool Sky smiled.

He looked at Kurama and said, "There's no need to say that you won't help humans. Whether it's Naruto, the Jinchuriki of Konoha, or Uchiha Un, they are all humans that you recognize."

These words startled Little Nine-Tailed Fox, who then looked at her own half: "You've already accepted that blond brat? I didn't realize... what a hypocrite."

The nine-tailed fox glared at it: "Shut up!"

The Nine-Tails, despite being rebuked, wasn't angry. Instead, it spread its paws and looked at Uzumaki Sora: "Using a fake idiot to intimidate us won't work. Go ahead and make Madara crawl out of his grave! I'll slap him to death!"

"hehe……"

Kong chuckled dismissively: "Who was that guy who was just yelling 'Boss, help!'?"

These words made Little Nine-Tailed Fox feel a rare bit embarrassed, but she quickly swallowed them back.

Extending a claw, it pointed at the frozen figure of Madara not far away: "You believe I could take on ten of that guy? If I hadn't been careless and failed to dodge, I would have made him call me daddy in no time."

The words had barely left his mouth.

The frozen scene came to life again, and the nine tailed beasts opposite Madara appeared one by one.

Ban then used his thumb to draw blood across the palm of his other hand.

"Spiritual communication!"

In an instant, the massive body was suddenly pulled out from another part.

"boom!!"

That's... the Ten-Tails' husk!

"Smack."

The little nine-tailed fox plopped down on the ground, then instantly sprang up and dashed behind the nine-tailed fox.

"Holy crap! This thing... he can actually... summon it?!"

"Is this real or fake? If it's real, let's hurry back to the boss and get help!"

In the consciousness connection, Nine-Tails angrily rebuked: Don't scare yourself, this is not something that actually happened in the real world!

The Nine-Tails' fur stood on end, its voice trembling, and it pointed one claw at the illusory image of Uchiha Madara in the distance: "The old man's... the old man's eyes! The Rinnegan!"

At this moment, Uzumaki Sora nodded and said, "That is indeed the Rinnegan, and it is precisely because of that eye that it was able to summon the Gedo Mazo, which is the body of the Ten-Tails."

As he spoke, Uzumaki Sora looked at the two Nine-Tailed Foxes and said, "This space can conjure up some future scenes, and these scenes will be what you care about most."

"By combining the nine tailed beasts into one and refilling them into the body of the Ten-Tails, one can become the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki and thus begin to reach the level of a sage."

"You, as Tailed Beasts, should be well aware of this, shouldn't you?"

At this moment, the scene not far away is changing once again.

After the Ten-Tails' body was summoned, it instantly arrived behind Madara.

"Hahaha! The cabin is ready, all we have to do now is stuff you inside."

Then, Madara looked at the nine tailed beasts in front of him: "Next, it will only take a few seconds."

The words had barely left his lips when, in the next moment…

An undetectable force appeared, and the nine tailed beasts were instantly knocked to the ground, unable to move.

"Behave yourself, now we can put the collar on you."

The Gedo Mazo's mouth glowed, and nine iron chains surged forth, instantly binding the necks of the One-Tailed to the Nine-Tailed Beasts.

The illusory scene freezes here.

……

"How is that possible?"

The little nine-tailed fox bristled: "Even with the old man's eyes, he couldn't possibly be this strong!"

The Nine-Tails beneath him closed its eyes slightly: "No. In fact, neither you nor I know the power of the Rinnegan. We only know that the old man also has such eyes."

"With Madara Uchiha's eye power, even if it's not the Rinnegan, the tailed beasts have no power to resist. Before his battle with Hashirama Senju, even in their perfect form, they had no chance to fight back."

These words silenced Little Nine-Tailed Fox.

But a moment later, it opened its eyes, stretched out its claws, and pointed at the vortex: "No! If this really is a scene from the future, then what about the boss? The boss wouldn't abandon me!"

Uzumaki Sora smiled and replied, "At a time like this... it's king against king, general against general. Do you really think Uchiha Yun has no opponent of his own?"

Nine-Tailed Fox's gaze sharpened slightly: "It's you?"

Kong smiled and answered irrelevantly, "The future is not static. Once you know the future, the original trajectory will be changed."

"Madara Uchiha is indeed dead, but you need to make a deal on how he came back to life."

"Your fate was sealed before this deal even began. And your fate after this depends on how much you change things."

Kurama said in a deep voice, "But if you agree to the deal, your power will inevitably increase again. At that time, you will also have the idea of ​​becoming the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki, right?"

and many more.

At this moment, Kurama realized that there was something wrong with his words. If the other party obtained the chakra of the nine tailed beasts through a transaction.

Then it seems there's no need for a Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.

The power with its own consciousness and the power that is completely under one's own control are not comparable at all.

To put the cart before the horse, given the information available to this guy, he wouldn't do something so foolish.

At this moment, the Nine-Tails angrily rebuked, "Are you stupid? Making a deal with this red-headed brat, if he manages to obtain the chakra of all nine tailed beasts, he'll become the second Six Paths Sage!"

The Nine-Tails replied indifferently, "I understand perfectly well, but as long as the other party doesn't become the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki, it won't cause any harm to us tailed beasts, right?"

"Snapped!"

The little nine-tailed fox on its head jumped up and smacked it: "Damn it! We're alright, but what about the boss and the others? Big Sister, Izumi, Naruto, everything in Konoha will be controlled by this guy."

"If we resist, everyone will be killed by this red-haired monster!"

Red-haired monster?

Uzumaki Sora's eye twitched. After this transaction is completed, the main body must teach this idiot a lesson!

He's quite loyal in what he says, but he's a bit too roguish.

"I think you may have misunderstood."

The sound of emptiness interrupted the argument between the two tailed beasts.

Sora then continued, "My goal is not the so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi. Also, I will not become the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki."

These words startled the two tailed beasts.

As their doubts began to arise, they all looked up at the red moon above.

On the surface of the red moon, the character "真" (true) appeared, coming into the sight of the two tailed beasts.

For a moment, Nine-Tails began to think things through carefully.

Meanwhile, the little nine-tailed fox atop its head deliberately winked and said disdainfully, "You're the one who brought us here, how would we know if there's anything strange about it?"

So... sometimes being too silly can lead to a sudden flash of inspiration?

Sora really wants to shut the little nine-tailed fox's mouth right now, it's so annoying!

"This world holds no secrets for me. Even tailed beasts like you who have lived for thousands of years do not know as many secrets as I do."

Sora looked at Kurama as he spoke: "After sealing Kaguya Otsutsuki, Hagoromo became the new Jinchūriki of the Ten-Tails. And before his death, why did he risk his weakened state and life force to create you all...?"

The little nine-tailed fox scratched its head: "The old man told us to help humans, but we were often tricked back then... But we got smarter later, anyway, there isn't a single good human."

"Yes! Especially those with the surname Nara, they're utterly inhuman, they even fool foxes."

Ignoring the little Nine-Tails's retort, the half-Nine-Tails replied, "The old man divided the Ten-Tails' chakra; you probably won't tell us the secrets behind that. So... how should we trade?"

Kong smiled and said, "Before that, what information do you need?"

What kind of information do you need...?

Nine-Tailed Fox frowned and looked up slightly at the frozen scene not far away.

If this is truly the future, with all nine tailed beasts gathered in one place, Madara Uchiha summons the body of the Ten-Tails using his Rinnegan...

The fact that the chakra had to be drawn back from the One-Tailed Shukaku when the Ten-Tails reunited is enough to show that this space knows a lot.

In fact, only the Rinnegan can summon the Gedo Mazo.

How did Madara Uchiha revive?

Or how to prevent your chakra from being taken back?

At that moment, the scene of the Sage of Six Paths' parting from Kurama flashed through Kurama's mind.

A blond-haired, blue-eyed boy who can frolic with the nine tailed beasts...

Could it be Naruto?

Nine-Tails looked at Sora Uzumaki in front of it, and compared to him, it was more willing to believe its little brother.

Although he can be a bit silly at times, he can be quite trustworthy when he's smart.

"One chip, two questions."

"First: Given the existing conditions, what should we do to ensure that we are not absorbed into the Ten-Tails' body?"

"Second: Who is that blond, blue-eyed boy the old man was talking about, the one who can change the world?"

Uzumaki Sora shook his head slightly: "As I said, the future is not static. By the time you know the future, it has already changed."

"How to ensure that you are not absorbed into the Ten-Tails' body is a question with too many uncertainties when I tell you about it."

"Under the contractual constraints of this trading space, even I cannot give you false information. Therefore, simply telling you things like who is responsible for the destruction will not earn me any leverage."

"Because after I tell you, a chain reaction will occur, and another person will emerge to become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki. As for completely preventing this from happening, you cannot do so with the current known conditions."

Above the blood-red moon, the character for "truth" reappeared.

Nine-Tails also fell into deep thought for a moment.

Is it impossible to completely eliminate it?

With this explanation, some things are already clear.

Although the idiot on its head is quite cheeky, it has to be admitted that its boss, Uchiha Kumo, possesses absolutely formidable power.

Is it still impossible to do so under these circumstances?

"You're the one who's a slut!"

The little nine-tailed fox slapped the nine-tailed fox on the head with its paw: "Insulting me is the same as insulting yourself. We share our senses now, don't you know that?"

Enraged by the slap, the Nine-Tails swatted the smaller Nine-Tails away with a single claw: "You are a disgrace to the Tailed Beasts, get out of here!"

After shifting its weight, the little nine-tailed fox rolled twice, regained its senses, put its hands on its hips, and pointed a claw at its lower body: "You still acknowledge that blond brat, you're just being arrogant, that's all! You still won't admit it!"

Nine-Tails was furious: "I was acknowledging a follower, is that the same as you, you idiot, acknowledging a boss?"

Little Nine-Tailed Fox retorted, "So what if I acknowledge a boss? Can you beat my boss? Are you stupid from being locked up in jail all the time? I eat and drink well every day and have freedom. Can you honestly say you're not envious and jealous?"

"roar!!!"

Unable to win the argument, Nine-Tails could only roar in fury.

At this moment, the little nine-tailed fox looked directly into the sky.

"I need to know the location of Akatsuki's headquarters! Will you tell me?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Kurama stopped her displeasure and looked directly at Uzumaki Sora.

At this moment, Kong was already filled with rage, wishing he could beat this idiot to death.

Although Jiraiya knew that the location of Amegakure would eventually be known after he met Nagato and Konan.

But right now... it's still a bit early!

After a moment's thought, Uzumaki Sora nodded and replied, "Okay. The location of Akatsuki's headquarters is worth one bargaining chip."

"No!"

Nine-Tails objected: "These are its terms of the deal, not mine!"

Uzumaki Sora frowned slightly: "Although you were divided and sealed by the Fourth Hokage, due to your experiences, you have developed your own consciousness and different personalities."

"But here, within the understanding of this trading space, you are still a unified entity. And as Tailed Beasts, you only have two chips in total, one valuable and one worthless..."

Before he could finish speaking, the little nine-tailed fox, standing three feet tall, shouted, "Listen to me! You must listen to me!"

The Nine-Tails roared, "You disgrace to the Tailed Beasts world! Even at a time like this, you're still thinking of helping that Uchiha Yun? Are you stupid?"

The next moment, the little Nine-Tails instantly returned to its original size, jumped up, and slapped the Nine-Tails on the head: "What do you know! The Ten-Tails' husk has already appeared, do you think we tailed beasts can handle it?"

"And do you really think... the Eight-Tails and Two-Tails of Kumogakure, the Seven-Tails of Takigakure, and the others, will listen to you?"

"Without borrowing Boss Yun's power, you and I will only be absorbed and completely annihilated! You idiot!"

At this moment, Sora casually said, "It's possible for a Nine-Tails to fight itself here. Continue, I also want to see how the Nine-Tails harms itself."

Sora's words stunned the two tailed beasts, who then stopped attacking.

Regardless, the guy in front of me is the real enemy.

One for each person.

"Then one for each of us."

Just as the two tailed beasts finished their discussion, Sora waved his hand and said, "Two chips don't represent two issues. In fact, you yourselves know very well what is valuable."

"The other one is of no value to me."

"After all, do you think I'd want someone who can drink endlessly, has a huge appetite, and is a master at saving money?"

Nine-Tailed Fox kept its paws covering its forehead, feeling somewhat embarrassed by the fact that it was its own half.

Little Nine-Tailed Fox, however, was quite unconvinced. With her hands on her hips, she retorted, "So what if you can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk? So what if you're a master at saving money? Even Boss Yun has to save money to get married. Do you want to be a single dog for the rest of your life?"

Is the protagonist saving up money to get married?

When the hell did I say something like that?

Uzumaki Sora's face darkened: "You just...called me a dog? You think that just because Uchiha Kumo is protecting you in Konoha, I can't do anything to you, right?"

The threat is growing stronger!

Little Nine-Tailed Fox immediately chickened out and quickly explained, "Don't misunderstand, boss! A single dog isn't a dog!"

The Nine-Tailed Fox, who didn't understand the root of the problem at all, naturally couldn't get Sora's forgiveness.

After giving Little Nine-Tailed Fox a meaningful look, Kong said in a deep voice, "Next, discuss your issues and tell me. Two chips, one heavy and one light, decide for yourselves."

The words fell.

After a while, the little nine-tailed fox tugged at its buttocks.

They then glanced cautiously at the sky, and the two tailed beasts turned their backs and began to mutter to each other.

"I know you've always had a problem with me, and I have indeed gotten a bit arrogant over the years. But if we both get absorbed by the Ten-Tails this time, we're really doomed. So... we have to be careful."

"Your nonsense is affecting even me. Knowing the gravity of the situation, you shouldn't place all your hopes on the people of Konoha!"

The little nine-tailed fox leaped and landed on its nose, half of its body.

Their eyes met, and the little nine-tailed fox sighed, "Even if you accept that blond brat, you really are different from me..."

"The battle between Uchiha Kumo and the Sea of ​​Endings marked the beginning of my acceptance of Uchiha Kumo. But after that, with my newfound freedom, my understanding of humanity has gradually deepened."

"Putting aside hatred, the relationship between the Tailed Beasts and humans is not just about our acceptance. After they accepted my existence, this period was the happiest time I've had in thousands of years."

"Just like when my husband was here, comfortable, safe, and happy..."

Nine-Tails fell silent.

Do they mutually recognize each other?

But besides that brat, who else would risk their life to release me?

Perhaps the nine-tailed fox, representing calamity, is how humans perceive themselves?

but……

Nine-Tails looked down at the tip of its nose, and its cross-eyed expression made it laugh.

"You bastard! What are you laughing at?!"
