Naruto: Starting with the Two Kamui

"But as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, possessing the immortality of the Impure World Reincarnation, wielding the power of the Rinnegan Six Paths, and having obtained the power of Sage Hashirama, I already have the means to confront that guy head-on. To be honest, I can't wait to trample him under my feet and give him the fate he deserves as a traitor!!"

Madara's powerful words resounded, stirring up Kabuto's heart. Back when Kasyapa was defeated, he was forced to resurrect Madara Uchiha using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, precisely to borrow his power to destroy Lin Yu!

Even though Madara turned the tables, broke free from Kabuto's control, and killed him and resurrected him using Edo Tensei, turning him from a player into a pawn, Kabuto chose to accept reality and humbly stayed by Madara's side, just to witness this day arrive!

Kabuto clenched his fists: "Uchiha Yu, I will make you pay for the regret of taking Lord Orochimaru away from me, leaving me homeless and reduced to a stray dog! I will make you pay for it with interest!"

And just like that, everyone from the masquerade ball disappeared without a trace!

The Land of Iron, the Valley of the Underworld.

Lin Yu has been here for nearly two months.

For the past two months, he has been using his pupil power to tear through space every day, trying to find the spatial node that sucked Xiaoxue in!

However, unlike Kaguya's space, that space does not have the Origin Sphere space as a transit point. Each space seems far apart, but in fact they are connected!

"The space-time that Xiaoxue was swept into was not only separated by space, but also by time..."

Lin Yu used his divine power no less than a thousand times!

During this period, many people came to see him.

The two sisters, Xi Yang and Xi Yan, were by his side at that moment.

Xue is the daughter of the setting sun. When she heard the bad news, she cried a lot. But after coming to Yu's side, she never cried. She knew that her husband was more anxious and she didn't want to cause him any trouble.

Because it also involves Naruto and Sasuke.

The fourth generation couple also came, and even Itachi had come before, though he hid in the shadows, secretly watching...

Late one night recently, Lin Yu made a major breakthrough. During a brief moment while using Divine Might, he sensed a subtle sensation and suddenly used Divine Might to leave a spatial imprint!

"Huff..." He covered his bleeding eyes and regulated his breathing. The messenger toad from Mount Myōboku had arrived. After reading the contents of the letter, he remained silent for a long time before standing up: "I'm sorry... I have something to attend to and must leave now."

Xi Yang said, "It's alright, Yu. Xi Yan and I will stay here!"

Lin Yu said, "Back then, in Xiaoxue's eyes, I transferred and sealed 'Divine Might' three times. She used it once to escape that day, and she has two left. Given that child's personality, she wouldn't use it recklessly. Perhaps, just now, that child also sensed it, and maybe she could return using her own power by relying on the spatial imprint I left behind..."

Even if Lin Yu knew, the possibility was very small!

"With the Three-Tails about to be resurrected, I must prioritize the greater good. During my rescue of Yuki, Jiraiya risked his life to obtain information about Madara for me. How can I betray him?!"

In an open space, Susanoo was released, the black gourd of the Totsuka Blade opened, and a large amount of chakra surged out, which was the half of the Nine-Tails that Lin Yu had obtained!

Jiraiya's information: Senju Kasyapa was used as a living sacrifice for the Impure World Reincarnation before his death, which is why Madara became the Nine-Tails' Jinchūriki in his impure form and possessed the power of Wood Release! As long as the other half of the Nine-Tails is in the hands of the Shadow, no matter where Madara is hiding, he can be found...

Lin Yu, we need to go find Ban!

Chapter 458 Feather and Nine-Tailed Fox!

The Nine-Tails' chakra was completely released from the sealing gourd and descended in physical form after a tremendous roar!

"Awooo!!!" The Nine-Tailed Fox let out a murderous roar, then slammed its claws toward Lin Yu in front of it!

boom!

The ground was mercilessly shattered, and Lin Yu lightly jumped backward: "Calm down, Nine-Tails, I won't do anything to you right now..."

But Kurama wouldn't listen at all. In its eyes, Lin Yu, like Madara, was a demon who imprisoned its freedom!

"Roar!!" It raised its head, mouth facing upwards, the Tailed Beast Ball materialized, and it swallowed it whole...

Smoke billowed from between his teeth, Nine-Tailed Fox puffed out his cheeks, and suddenly exhaled forward.

boom!

A cannon shot flew straight through Lin Yu's body, blasting down a mountain.

"Awooo!!" The Nine-Tailed Fox swept its massive head, followed by the Hollow Dog Cannon, leveling one mountain after another, but without causing any damage to Lin Yu...

Yu landed on the ground: "Are you done venting your anger? If you are, let's talk about serious matters..."

Because what follows will largely depend on the cooperation of the Nine-Tailed Fox, Lin Yu wants to avoid using forceful methods as much as possible.

With hot smoke billowing from its mouth, the Nine-Tailed Fox roared angrily, "Who wants to associate with someone like you?!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Kurama (the Nine-Tails) was about to launch another Tailed Beast Ball...

Lin Yu's expression turned slightly cold; he had already entered immortal mode.

Immortal Techniques: The Bright God Gate!

Boom!

A divine gate descended from the sky, pressing the Nine-Tails' neck to the ground... Crack! The tailed beast ball, which had not yet been fully formed, also shattered and disappeared.

Lin Yu lowered his hand and said, "Nine-Tailed Fox, my patience is limited..."

Nine-Tailed Fox, its rear end sticking out and tail wagging wildly, roared, "Enough talk! Either lock me back in your gourd, or disappear from my sight!!"

Lin Yu said jokingly, "You wouldn't mind if I gave you to Ban...?"

click!

The nine-tailed fox stopped wriggling its rear end and slowly pressed itself to the ground. Its bloodshot vertical pupils stared fiercely at Lin Yu, but it dared not utter another word of dissent.

Lin Yu found it both amusing and helpless: Madara's name... really works. Even if he might not be as strong as me, the psychological trauma he left on Kurama still makes it instinctively feel that Madara is more terrifying. Oh well...

Madara often mocked Kurama for being foolish and lacking wisdom, which was clearly prejudiced. Kurama was not only wise but also quite intelligent: "Hmph! Don't think you can fool me with such words! Tailed beasts are connected by their minds. Don't think I don't know what you did to Chongming and Gyuki! You want to covet our power? You will never hand over the strongest of us, Madara!"

Chongming is the name of the seventh tail, and Niugui is the name of the eighth tail.

Lin Yu smiled faintly, not bothering to retort, and sat down on the ground with a flick of his robe: "Since the tailed beasts are of one mind, you should know what state your other half is in right now, right?"

Nine-Tails immediately fell silent. Yes, it knew very well that its other half was sealed inside Madara's body, and it even knew the exact location!

The connection between tailed beasts is absolute, especially when their powers originate from the same source! Two Nine-Tails can sense each other's presence even if they are in different spaces!

Half of the Nine-Tails not only provides Madara with a power boost, but also serves as an indelible dynamic mark!

As long as Lin Yu has control over the other half of Kurama, he can keep track of Madara's movements, provided that Kurama is willing to cooperate.

The Nine-Tails coldly replied, "So what if you know? You just want me to tell you where Madara is so you can steal my other half. But whether I'm in your hands or Madara's, it doesn't seem to make much difference. Don't expect me to cooperate! I am the proud Nine-Tails! The embodiment of hatred! Don't even think about using power to subdue me!!"

Lin Yu really wanted to try... whether Kotoamatsukami would work on the Nine-Tails, but if it didn't, it might become even more resistant.

So, it turns out that a hard approach didn't work?

After a moment's hesitation, he looked up and said, "Nine Lamas..."

Whoosh! The nine-tailed fox's pupils flashed suddenly... Distant memories flooded its mind. It had been over a thousand years since anyone had called it by that name!

This is the name given to it by the Sage of Six Paths!

Names are things that people create to strengthen their connections and deepen their understanding of each other. The names of the tailed beasts have been passed down since ancient times, and many people know them.

However, human nature is to fear the unknown. The power of the tailed beasts is immeasurable and beyond people's common sense, making people fear them and thus keep their distance...

Human greed and the pursuit of power will also drive them to covet the power of the tailed beasts!

Out of fear, they are unwilling to get involved, or out of a desire to exploit, they are unwilling to deepen their understanding; they will not be interested in a mere name!

Over time, the names of the tailed beasts were forgotten, and they were only referred to by the number of their tails... which had an ominous meaning!

Therefore, when the words "Nine-Tailed Fox" came out of Lin Yu's mouth, the impact on the Nine-Tailed Fox was unimaginable! Even though it knew deep down that this was just a trick by Lin Yu to gain its trust, it couldn't help but feel a strange fluctuation in its heart.

At least, Madara never calls me by my name. To him, I am just a pet, a slave!

But this person in front of me... at least still has a tiny bit of humanity left! Falling into his hands is at least better than falling into Madara's hands!

After some internal struggle, Nine-Tailed Fox said, "First, untie this piece of wood!"

"No problem." Lin Yu raised two fingers, and the Bright God Gate was deactivated.

Nine-Tails shook its aching head, its hostility noticeably lessening: "I can tell you where your other half is! But you must promise me one thing!"

"I will do my best."

"Trying your best isn't enough; you have to do it!"

"Tell me about it!"

Kurama said, "If you can rescue the other half of me from Madara's body, I will not only help you find Madara, but I am also willing to fight alongside you!"

Fighting side by side... to be honest, this really doesn't matter much to Lin Yu.

Seeing Lin Yu's expression, Nine-Tails suddenly said, "You probably don't know... that guy just fought the First Hokage not long ago and even stole his Sage Mode!"

"What did you say?!" Lin Yu's brows furrowed suddenly.

Yes... Madara took Hashirama away without anyone knowing, not even Tobirama and Mito knew. They only knew that Hashirama went out to relax after finishing his work.

After all, who could have imagined that the God of Shinobi would be taken into the Amber Purification Bottle by Madara Uchiha in the form of a greeting? No matter how imaginative you are, you couldn't have come up with that!

This is definitely not good news for Lin Yu!

It's not just that Madara obtained the Sage's power, but also because Hashirama was an indispensable member of his ninja kingdom. What if... something unexpected happened to Hashirama's Edo Tensei!

Lin Yu asked in a deep voice, "Where is Hashirama right now?"

Nine-Tailed Fox said, "According to my other half, he has been sealed away, but the place is very far away, and you probably won't be able to get there anytime soon..."

The tailed beasts communicate on a deep psychological level. Only those who achieve absolute understanding with a tailed beast can reach the depths of its heart. Neither Lin Yu nor Madara could reach that point...

Therefore, the two Nine-Tails communicated from a distance without Madara noticing.

"Things have come to this point..." Lin Yu looked up at Kurama: "Okay, I promise you, I will definitely help you pull the other half of your body out of Madara's body!"

“Words are no proof!” Nine-Tailed Fox stretched out its fist at Lin Yu.

Tailed beasts can determine whether someone is sincere by exchanging punches.

"..." Lin Yu stretched out his fist and pressed it against the Nine-Tailed Fist.

*Snap!* As if a bolt of lightning had flashed by.

"Hmph." Nine-Tailed Fox raised the corner of her mouth, and Lin Yu also smiled faintly.

Mutual understanding between people... sometimes really does start with deceit and treachery!

Chapter 459 Searching for Him Among the Crowd!

Lin Yu learned Madara's current location from Kurama. He temporarily transferred Kurama to the space-time dimension, then returned to Yuhuang City, gave some instructions, and told Mito and Tobirama about Hashirama being sealed away.
