Chapter 111 The Name of the Nine-Tailed Fox

In the end, Kurama succumbed to Mito's "tyranny" and told her that his name was Kurama.

Once we have a name, things will be much easier.

Mito told Tobirama the name of the Nine-Tails.

Tobirama was slightly taken aback; he hadn't expected that Kurama (the Nine-Tails) actually had a name.

The difference between having a name and not having a name is quite significant.

Without a name, Tobirama could still treat Kurama as a wild beast.

This beast was simply stronger and also possessed the ability to think.

But in the end, it's still just a wild beast.

But if he had a name, the first thing he wanted to know was who gave the Nine-Tailed Fox the name Kurama.

Also, since the Nine-Tails has a name, do the other tailed beasts have names too?

The ninja world at this time was not like the one under the Third Hokage.

Apart from the Nine-Tails, each tailed beast has experienced a jinchūriki who is more in line with its own desires.

Therefore, the tailed beasts told their jinchūriki their names, indicating that they were friends, not "pets" and "masters".

It was because of this that people in the ninja world learned the names of these eight tailed beasts.

Only Kurama (the Nine-Tails) wasn't very convinced by Mito Uzumaki and Kushina Uzumaki, so no one knew his name.

It wasn't until the appearance of Naruto Uzumaki, the chosen one of destiny, that everyone realized that the Nine-Tails was actually called Kurama.

Of course, we're referring to the original work here.

On Tobirama's side, they were the first to learn that the Tailed Beasts actually had names.

"Sister-in-law, ask Nine-Tails again, who named him?"

He wrote Kurama's name on the light screen, clicked confirm, and successfully submitted the list. Tobirama then turned to look at Mito.

"OK."

When Mito's figure reappeared before Kurama's eyes, Kurama's reaction was quite strong.

"You wretched woman, I've already told you my name, why did you still come?"

The Adamantine Lock that Mito just used really gave Kurama a hard time.

To alleviate his physical pain, he could only choose to sleep.

So he was unaware that Tobirama Senju, that evil fellow, was very interested in the origin of his name.

"Nine-Ra, tell me, who gave you your name?"

"I don't want to see you, get out of here."

"Oh, don't be angry. If you had just told me your name honestly, I wouldn't have hit you, right?"

Upon hearing this, Nine-Tails gritted her teeth and roared, "Then should I apologize to you?"

"Hehe. We're all so familiar with each other, there's no need for an apology. I've already forgiven you."

"I have never seen such a shameless person!"

"Hey~ now you've seen it."

Nine-Tails knew that if he didn't answer the woman's question, he might be tortured by those thick, heavy chains again.

Fortunately, it wasn't a difficult problem. He could get rid of the woman as soon as possible so he could continue sleeping.

"It was given to me by the old man of the Six Paths."

"The Sage of Six Paths?? Uh, the Sage of Six Paths?"

"Yes, it's him. If you're unhappy about me being called Nine-Tailed Fox, then go find him and stop bothering me."

"Find him? Where am I supposed to find him? Could it be that the Sage of Six Paths is still alive?"

The thought that the Sage of Six Paths was still alive and hiding somewhere in the ninja world sent a chill down Mito's spine.

"He's dead. That old man died a long time ago."

"Then why did you tell me to go find him?"

"Go to the underworld. Maybe the old man is still lingering there and hasn't been reincarnated."

"Fine, so you're telling me to die, is that it?"

"Hehe, that's what you said, I didn't say that."

"You stinky fox, you get cocky when you're given a little encouragement, and you're up to no good if you're not disciplined for three days. Take this, my Vajra Lockdown!"

"Ah~ Ya~ Mie~ Die".

After giving Kurama another beating in the consciousness space, Mito Uzumaki regained her consciousness and spoke to Tobirama.

"Kyuu said that his name was given by the Sage of Six Paths."

Upon hearing this, Tobirama nodded and said, "Is that so? That's about what I thought."

The existence of the tailed beasts is indeed ancient.

Before his elder brother Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha appeared, the Tailed Beasts stood at the very top of the ninja world.

Only the legendary Sage of Six Paths could have named the Nine-Tails with such immense power.

"By the way, besides the Nine-Tails, do the other eight tailed beasts also have names? Were their names also given by the Sage of Six Paths?"

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

"Uh, I don't know. Should I go ask Nine-Tails?"

Nine-Tails: Don't come any closer!!!

"never mind."

Perhaps sensing Kurama's wailing, Tobirama didn't let Mito question Kurama again. Instead, he told her and the others the time to travel through time, and then everyone dispersed.

The first thing Tobirama did at work the next morning was to summon the Anbu ninjas and send them to the ninja world to find Kakuzu.

"Listen, this person is dangerous to you. Once you find him, don't act rashly. Immediately find a way to notify me, understand?"

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

The ninja world is neither too big nor too small.

Finding someone is not actually that easy.

However, finding Kakuzu is not that difficult.

Through the light screen, Tobirama learned that this person loved money and had been working as a bounty hunter.

As long as these ANBU ninja keep a close eye on the underground gold exchange offices in several major cities, they will eventually be able to find Kakuzu's whereabouts.

"By the way, what has Jiraiya been up to lately?"

As Tobirama asked his question, a new ANBU ninja emerged from the shadows and stood before him.

"Reporting to the Hokage, Jiraiya has been missing during the day, but he goes to fight Kato Dan around nine o'clock every night."

"How were the results?"

"More losses than wins."

"Keep monitoring him, but don't let him find out."

Tobirama was always wary of the toads on Mount Myōboku.

As the saying goes, those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts.

There are still frictions and conflicts between people, and he didn't believe that the group of toads would wholeheartedly and selflessly help humans.

Tobirama was also monitoring Jiraiya because he didn't want him to be used by those toads.

As for Kato Dan's side...

"Forget it, let the young people handle their own affairs."

Tobirama will not interfere in Tsunade's romantic relationships.

He also believed that after seeing the review of Kato Dan on the screen, she would probably lose interest in him.

Unfortunately, even so, Jiraiya's chances are rather slim.

Who told him to have such a reputation? At such a young age, he could have done anything but spy on bathhouses.

Because of his young age, most of the time we would just give him a little scolding and let him go.

However, his reputation was completely ruined in the bathhouse area.

Almost every bathhouse has a wooden sign erected at its entrance.

It reads: "Beware of fire, theft, and unauthorized access."
