In Konoha, you call this a ninja tool?

How can they fight someone like him?

I doubt it would be possible even if we were to perish together.

"I don't care, even if I can't come up with a solution, we absolutely cannot go back, otherwise we will be punished."

Deidara couldn't offer a solution, but they absolutely couldn't go back like this.

"Alright, let's observe for a while longer and see if we can find an opportunity. But I advise you to give up this idea. If you want to die, don't drag me down with you."

Sasori of the Red Sand reluctantly nodded in agreement to Deidara's words.

The two people stood guard to one side, not daring to make a sound.

Waiting for an opportunity.

.........

Tianyu here.

Sakura is taking care of Yūkimaru, who is lying in Guren's arms.

He appeared extremely weak.

"how's it going?"

Honglian looked at Xiaoying anxiously and asked.

She and Yukimaru have relied on each other for so many years, and if something were to happen to Yukimaru, she really wouldn't know what to do.

"It's nothing serious. Judging from his physical condition, he was probably just overworked. He's fine now, but he needs to rest well when he gets back and shouldn't be overworked."

Sakura examined Yukimaru's body and then spoke.

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, Guren immediately nodded and then turned to look at Yukimaru.

"After you go back these next few days, you need to get some proper rest. You absolutely cannot run around anymore, do you hear me!"

Honglian looked at Youguimaru and gave him some instructions.

"Don't worry, Sister Honglian, I will definitely try my best to take good care of my health. Don't forget that I still want to live a good life with Sister Honglian. Since my mother died, Sister Honglian has been my closest person. I will definitely listen to Sister Honglian's words."

Yukimaru smiled.

Although his face was pale, he looked very happy.

"Yes, you need to be healthy. As Brother Tianyu just said, once we capture the Three-Tails, your body will recover and you'll be able to run and jump again. Let me tell you, if you ever have the chance to come to Konoha, I'll definitely treat you to Ichiraku Ramen. It's simply the best food in the world."

Naruto smiled broadly, looking at Yukimaru, and couldn't help but say something.

"Yes, I'm looking forward to it."

Yukimaru really likes Naruto.

Naruto has a sunny disposition that feels warm and comforting.

Just as Naruto, Yukimaru, and Sakura were talking on the side...

Kakashi stood to the side, constantly on guard against any ninjas that might appear in the surrounding area.

After all, the commotion they caused just now was quite significant.

If the Hidden Mist Village discovers this.

They will definitely send ninjas.

.........

Meanwhile, in Kirigakure (Hidden Mist Village).

Mei Terumi is discussing matters with her subordinates.

Nowadays, Kirigakure has long since abandoned the Blood Mist Technique, but because it lasted for so long, the village is now facing a talent shortage.

There are only a few dozen ninjas who can truly demonstrate their abilities.

The rest haven't grown up yet and aren't capable of shouldering the responsibility.

"Lord Mizukage, if possible, I think we can find someone to be the Three-Tails Jinchuriki. Ever since the Fourth Mizukage, Lord Yagura, died, the Three-Tails has been in a wild state because the village has not had the opportunity to subdue it before."

"But now that we have this ability, we should take back the Three-Tails. This way, the village will not only have one more Kage-level powerhouse, but we will also have more leverage. The situation outside is very complicated right now."

"The Hidden Cloud Village, the Hidden Stone Village, the Hidden Sand Village, and even the Hidden Leaf Village could go to war at any time. So we have to take some precautions as well."

Ao looked at Terumi Mei and said.

One of his eyes was the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan's main branch, which he found on the battlefield.

There's only one of these, making it extremely rare.

The fact that he was given the transplant proves his status in Kirigakure.

“I know, I’ve been thinking about this too. The village really needs fighting power right now. Chojuro is very strong, but he’s the only one left. Of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Kirigakure has only recovered five of their seven great swords; the rest are still scattered outside!”

"These are all potential threats to us, so retrieving the Three-Tails is an urgent matter. I've decided to personally lead a team to capture the Three-Tails. You can go around the village and see if you can find a suitable Three-Tails Jinchuriki, preferably a child. Children are very malleable, so if possible, it's best to choose a child."

Terumi Mei ordered.

"Don't worry, I will try my best to find it."

Qing nodded.

"Ok!"

After Mei Terumi nodded, she decided to go and capture the Three-Tails alone.

The Three-Tails currently has no Jinchūriki, so it would be no match for him in a one-on-one fight.

However, just as Mei Terumi was about to leave, she felt a powerful force emanating from the lake.

Its internal power is extremely immense. Although it contains the chakra of the Three-Tails, it is definitely not something the Three-Tails could unleash.

"What...what's going on?"

Mei Terumi was stunned when she sensed this power.

"Anbu, investigate this immediately and find out what's going on!"

Qing immediately ordered people to investigate.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the secret service immediately turned and left.

Ten minutes later, the ANBU returned to the Mizukage's office.

"Lord Mizukage, there's something wrong with the lake where the Three-Tails is hiding. It seems someone is fighting the Three-Tails there."

Chapter 346 Sealing the Three-Tailed Beast (Part 2)

The secret service quickly relayed the information he knew.

"What!" Upon hearing this, Mei Terumi slammed her hand on the table.

The Three-Tails belongs to Kirigakure, and now someone actually wants to take it away.

This is simply disregarding them.

"Assemble the Anbu. I want to see who dares to mess with the Three-Tails."

After saying this, Mei Terumi left the Hokage's office and rushed towards the lake.

The Anbu followed behind Mei Terumi.

Ao watched Mei Terumi's retreating figure.

He suddenly sighed.

"The Hidden Mist Village is going through a turbulent time, and this incident is truly disheartening."

…………

"Isobu of the Three-Tailed Beast, now that you've become my defeated foe, you must accept your fate. Next, I will take you to Konoha and give you a new Jinchūriki."

Tenyu walked up to the Three-Tails, looked at him, and slowly said.

The three-tailed creature's enormous body is more than fifty times the size of Tianyu.

But at this moment, the Three-Tails could only lie in front of Tenyu.

He can't do anything at all.

If he wanted to fight, he wouldn't be a match for Tianyu.

"It sounds nice, but it's just the law of the jungle. Since you've defeated me, there's nothing more to say. Just take me back and seal me into the body of a Jinchūriki. I've lived like this for over a thousand years, so I don't mind living like this for a few more decades."

Sanwei sneered upon hearing this.

When the Sage of Six Paths created them, his original intention was to have them help humanity.

However, these people sealed their power into their bodies and used it for their own purposes.

In the end, they even said that these tailed beasts were evil.

However, it was humans who harmed the tailed beasts from beginning to end, and if humans hadn't gone too far, how could the tailed beasts have slaughtered them?

"No, I think you didn't understand what I meant. What I meant was to take you back and give you a Jinchūriki, but I won't seal you in a human body. Instead, I want you to coexist. The Jinchūriki can use all your power, and you can also benefit from the Jinchūriki's power."

"To achieve a relationship of mutual dependence, rather than a one-sided, sealed-off demand."

Tenyu looked at the Three-Tailed Fox and said with a smile.

"Oh, your idea is really too naive. Even if you take me back now, as long as you choose one person, if the pillar doesn't seal me, I will make that person wish they were dead. And even if I agree to your request, what about your villagers?"

"For thousands of years, I have witnessed the coldness and warmth of human relationships in this world, and I have long known that when facing a tailed beast, even your dear family, friends, or even brothers will turn against you in an instant. They will think that there is a monster living in your body, and you will become a monster as well."

"At first, these Jinchūriki may have had good intentions and wanted to live normal lives, but as time goes by, they will realize that what they want is simply a pipe dream."

"No one would accept them, so later on, my jinchūriki either found out about it myself, or they locked themselves up early on in a place that no one else could find."

“Some of them, even if they are received by their relatives, will become the ones who hurt them the most when they go berserk because they can’t control their chakra.”

"You don't care about our family ties at all. So tell me, after I've seen so much of the coldness and indifference of human relationships, do you think I could still coexist with a Jinchuriki? Absolutely not."

The Three-Tailed Fox decisively rejected Tengo's offer.
