Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

Chapter 316: There's no escaping it now.

So this is what Kushina was thinking inside; only in this way could she feel at peace with herself...

However, my lady, you have clearly underestimated your husband's magnanimity.

Who is Minato Namikaze?

For the sake of peace and the future of the ninja world, he was magnanimous enough to persuade and forgive Obito, who had killed him, his wife, almost his child, and countless people in Konoha.

Naruto is just like Minato in this respect; his mind is so broad that it is boundless and all-encompassing!

In terms of magnanimity, the First Hokage, Hashirama, might be comparable to the father and son; such magnanimity is truly beyond the reach of ordinary people.

With these three, one can truly lay down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot!

Would someone with such a broad mind mind if his wife pursued happiness after his death?

There's absolutely no need for a reason, just go for it without hesitation, okay?

The man doesn't need to be afraid; most likely, she'll thank him for taking care of his wife and bringing her happiness...

Unfortunately, Kushina didn't understand this as well as he did, and her explanation was useless.

Do you think that Kushina understands her husband as well as you, an outsider?

So the conditions still need to be met.

Fortunately, he is not far from meeting the conditions; he only needs to activate the Eternal Kaleidoscope to achieve it.

This process can take anywhere from one to two years.

If he were in Sage Mode and going all out, he would have a pretty good chance of defeating Kushina, but a crushing victory would still be very difficult...

Unless they resort to underhanded tactics or kill, there is little chance of success.

It's easier to achieve this by activating the Eternal Kaleidoscope, and if you add Sage Mode, it becomes an easy and enjoyable process.

He could wait a year or two, and he had enough patience. He was still young, and Kushina wasn't old either; even in two years, she would only be thirty.

In truth, Kushina is already a caged bird, with no way to escape!

"Kushina-nee, I understand."

Uchiha Gen's expression changed, becoming serious and solemn, but after speaking, his expression softened and became gentle again.

"How about we stop here for today?"

Since a decisive victory is impossible, there's no need to continue fighting.

After she finished speaking, Kushina realized what she had just said, and was immediately filled with remorse, shame, and embarrassment.

Even through the Nine-Tails' chakra mask, Kushina's face was still clearly red, as if it were about to burst into flames...

Overwhelmed by a mix of emotions, Kushina, enraged and embarrassed, exclaimed, "No way! I have to fight you today, because I want to beat you up badly..."

As soon as he finished speaking, three crimson tails attacked Uchiha Gen: two thrust, one slapped, and the other silently burrowed into the soil.

Having obtained the answer he wanted, Uchiha Gen had lost all will to fight, and thus only relied on his powerful perception and agile movements to dodge.

The chakra tail is incredibly powerful; it can pierce the earth like rotten soil, leave a deep crack when it strikes the ground, and create a sizable crater with a single punch.

A few breaths later, the tail hidden underground suddenly attacked from the ground when Uchiha Gen dodged in mid-air, forcing Uchiha Gen to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to evade.

This scene infuriated Kushina even more, and after Uchiha Gen reappeared, she shouted, "Unless you are facing a life-or-death crisis, you are not allowed to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to dodge."

"I learned it through my own skill, but I can't even use it? That's too harsh, isn't it?" Uchiha Gen said with a chuckle.

You can't just blindly obey women; you have to stick to your principles when necessary, and sometimes you can even deliberately go against them.

"Hmph, don't think I can't do anything to you just because of this."

Diamond Lockdown!

A large number of dark gold chains erupted from Kushina's waist and abdomen, some of which shot towards Uchiha Gen to restrain him.

A portion of the energy shot out in all directions, transforming into invisible and transparent barriers. Once the barriers were fully formed, the chains that had been chasing Uchiha Gen returned to their respective positions and merged into the barriers.

This barrier is so powerful that it can even seal off space itself.

Although the space is not completely sealed off, there are still many loopholes that can be exploited, but it will take some time to identify them.

Kushina did not intend to give Uchiha Gen enough time, and transformed again the moment the barrier was formed.

In the next instant, Kushina was surrounded by golden chakra, her hair stood up in the shape of two horns, and six tomoe appeared at her neckline, shining brightly, exuding an extraordinary aura.

This is the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode shown in the original Naruto manga; Naruto emerged from seclusion in this mode during the Fourth Shinobi World War.

As for Kurama Mode, Kushina can't activate it; she needs to understand and fully accept Kurama.

Eight golden chakra tentacles emerged from his golden chakra body, and these chakra tentacles clenched into fists, attacking Uchiha Gen all at once.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Gen did not intend to dodge this time. Black chakra surged out and instantly transformed into a second-stage Susanoo covered with meridians and skin.

The black hand of Susanoo reached out and grabbed the golden tentacle with speed, precision, and a tricky angle.

Susanoo suddenly pulled hard, and the unsuspecting Kushina was quickly pulled over...

Kushina was startled at first, but quickly calmed down. Another golden tentacle emerged, its head transforming into a hand that pressed down on the black Susanoo's wrist.

A blue Rasengan appeared in the golden palm, and in the blink of an eye, the Rasengan transformed from a ping-pong ball into the size of a small house.

boom!

A violent explosion rang out, filling the air with smoke and dust. The house-sized Rasengan severed Susanoo's arm, freeing the remaining eight golden tentacles, which then burrowed into the earth in eight directions, allowing Kushina to regain her footing.

Kushina's chakra nature is wind, water, and yin.

Since he already knows the Tailed Beast Ball, learning the Rasengan isn't difficult at all, since the Rasengan is modeled after the Tailed Beast Ball.

After regaining her footing, Kushina manipulated the three golden tentacles to merge into one. The three thick golden tentacles converged above her head, and Yin-Yang chakra rapidly gathered, quickly forming the Tailed Beast Ball...

As the smoke and dust cleared, Uchiha Gen stood panting heavily inside Susanoo, his face exhausted, two streaks of bloody tears appearing in his eyes, and his chest heaving violently.

Damn it, if we don't put on a show, how long will this fight go on?

"What's wrong with you?"

Seeing this, Kushina stopped her attack and looked worried.

"It's nothing, just that my eye power was used up a bit too much, since Zhu Rong and the others weren't involved in the battle..."

"The intensity of the battle is a bit beyond my expectations, Kushina-nee, you're really strong."

"Come on, let's continue. You won't go blind, it's just that your eyesight will be significantly worse after the fight," Uchiha Gen said with a determined look on his face.

Kushina rolled her eyes slightly and said, "Although I have a feeling you might be faking it, let's just forget about it."

"If my eyesight really deteriorates, I won't know how to explain it to Mikoto and the others."

"Quickly wipe the blood off your face, or you'll scare the children when you go upstairs."

"As expected of Kushina-neechan, she's so open and generous!"

Uchiha Gen wiped the bloodstains off his face with his sleeve, gave a slightly exaggerated thumbs-up, but did not reveal his two rows of gleaming teeth.

"No one is allowed to know what I said before, not even Mikoto, or I'll beat you up no matter what!"

Kushina rolled her eyes and gave a warning, feigning ferocity.

Uchiha Gen nodded decisively, without being foolish enough to ask which sentence it was.

If you were to actually ask Kushina, she would likely explode!
