When Minato saw Tatsuma regaining consciousness, he let go of Kushina. He quickly stepped forward, caught Kushina who fell to the side, and asked, "Is Kushina-chan okay?"
"Don't worry, she should be communicating with Kyuubi."
After Tatsuma finished speaking, he suddenly felt waves of pain coming from his body. The Kyuubi's chakra was constantly burning his body. He bared his teeth and clearly felt the pain and throwing away.
However, Tatsuma did not immerse himself in the power brought by the nine-tailed chakra. Because of the intervention of the nine-tailed chakra, Tatsuma felt that his sage mode was almost out of control again. He clasped his hands together and tried hard to mobilize the nine-tailed chakra.
Fortunately, just a few days ago, a wave of Kyuubi was consumed, and there was not much chakra left in the dissipated part of the Kyuubi, that is, the level of five tails. Tatsuma in sage mode could still barely mobilize it.
This is the benefit of having a seal. The tail-sealing seal on Kushina's body has sealed the Nine-Tails' true body. What appears in the spiritual world and can be consumed and extracted is only the part that escapes the seal.
If it weren't for the Tail-Sealing Seal, Tatsuma would probably be knocked away by the Kyuubi Ichito as soon as he entered Kushina's spiritual world.
The meaning of the sealing seal is to allow Kushina, who has not yet been able to control the Nine-Tails, to suppress the Nine-Tails. After all, Kushina was too young when she became a jinchuriki, and her talent has not been realized into immediate combat power.
For example, Uzumaki Mito was fully grown up back then, and his talent had almost been realized. He could suppress the Nine-Tails by himself, so he gave up those cumbersome sealing methods and suppressed the Nine-Tails with only his will and strength. .
The advantage of this method is that there is no need to worry about the seal being cracked. After all, there is no seal at all. As long as the suppression is successful, the possibility of losing control is extremely small.
Mito Uzumaki was still able to control the Kyuubi until his death. Perhaps in the original work, Kushina before giving birth to Naruto also had the power to suppress the Kyuubi. After all, her body has not yet recovered after pregnancy, and she was weak after losing the Kyuubi. In this state, Kushina still has the confidence to die with Kyuubi.
But now, Kushina is still inseparable from the sealing seal, but the training plan is already in preparation. Tatsuma wonders if it is possible for Kushina, who has given up her fear of Kyuubi after this incident, to... Kyuubi truly get along with each other as equals.
Tatsuma himself is looking forward to it. After all, if Kushina does it, even if she cannot become the so-called perfect jinchūriki, she can completely control the Nine-Tails like Mito Uzumaki. Tatsuma can be regarded as fulfilling Mito Uzumaki's instructions. One of them.
The multi-tasking Tatsuma did not delay in regulating the Nine-Tails chakra. Soon the Nine-Tails chakra was concentrated on his left hand, and the whole arm turned black and red. Not far away, Minato, You can even smell the burnt smell.
Enduring the pain, Tatsuma waved his right hand and made a cut on the inside of his left forearm. Thinking back to the time when Uzumaki Mito gave him the Kyuubi Chakra Momentum's second modified Four Elephant Seal, Tatsuma was stained with blood. The fingers also moved.
The variant four-image seal he carved was not exactly the same as what Uzumaki Mito had carved back then, but the effect was roughly the same. Tatsuma just chose the sealing technique he was more familiar with.
After the engraving of the technique was completed, the four-image seal was rotated, and a steady stream of chakra was concentrated, and then sealed. When the sealing technique stabilized, Tatsuma used Yin Healing to destroy the wound.
The burnt area on his arm healed quickly, and the blood scab peeled off quickly. Tatsuma finally shook off his hand. There were almost no traces of severe burns on his left hand, and it was even whiter and more tender than other skin.
This is the benefit of new cells, and it is also one of the theoretical guidelines for Chenmana’s improved version of the art of extracting minor troubles.
When Tatsuma's seal was completed, Kushina also woke up, and as soon as she woke up, the corners of her mouth raised and she put on a smile.
She had just experienced the same joy as Tatsuma, that is, beating Kyuubi violently. One thing to say, it was indeed very happy, but Kushina did not dare to use her full strength for fear of really killing Kyuubi.
But she was still refreshed, feeling that her body was finally no longer affected by the Kyuubi chakra, and Kushina became even more happy.
Seeing Kushina's smile, Minato could not let go, but he finally relaxed and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay! I've never felt better."
In the past two years, she has been affected by the Kyuubi's chakra, and even some experienced sealing techniques are at risk of failure. She has overcome it for a long time, but now the annoying stagnation has finally disappeared.
Because of the stagnation, the growth of body and chakra that was not so clearly felt became very clear at this time. Kushina really felt that she had never felt better.
She was much stronger than before becoming a Jinchuriki, and without the constraints and hindrances she had after becoming a Jinchuriki, she felt that she was incredibly powerful now.
"Tatsuma!"
Hearing Kushina's cry, Tatsuma's face was full of surprise, and he looked at Kushina in disbelief. Kushina ignored Tatsuma's surprise and said:
"Aren't you going on a mission? There must be a battle, right? Take me with you! I want to fight now!"
"Give up. Although the village has not imprisoned you, it is almost impossible for you to leave the village. If you want to fight, just go to my teacher or Jiraiya-sensei.
Moreover, what Minato and I are going to carry out is a top-secret mission, and you have no right to participate. "
Tatsuma's harsh words made Kushina's originally excellent mood deteriorate a lot. She looked at Tatsuma angrily and said, "Isn't it just ANBU? What's so great about it?!"
"Your boyfriend is also an ANBU."
"Minato. Minato he. He's different from you!"
Kushina glanced at Minato with a guilty look. She seemed to have accidentally hurt her boyfriend, but how could Minato care? He continued to show his sunny smile, as warm as the spring sun.
Tatsuma opened his mouth and broke the beauty, saying: "It is indeed different. I am his squad leader and will soon become his squad leader."
"Hmph! What's so great about it? If you were really great, you would become the head of ANBU. Are you not qualified? Hahaha~"
Kushina was so angry that she managed to make herself laugh, but the smile on Minato's face became extremely embarrassing. After all, Tatsuma was qualified to be the ANBU minister, but he didn't seem to be very willing.
Kushina should know about this? The last time he was at the ramen shop, he talked about it. Could it be that Kushina was under constant mental attack at that time and had no intention of listening to what others were saying?
When he thought of this, the embarrassment on Minato's face disappeared, and he became distressed again, and felt a little guilty as to why he hadn't discovered it earlier.
Tatsuma rolled his eyes at the two of them and said: "Minato, you take Kushina to the Sandaime to report. I will stay and practice for a while, and then you will be ready to travel in the next few days. I will inform you after confirming the specific matters. .”
"good."
Minato nodded and looked at Kushina in his arms. Kushina also nodded and stretched out her arms around Minato's neck very naturally. The golden flash flickered and the two of them disappeared.
Tatsuma sat down on the same spot, carefully experiencing his sage mode that was about to get out of control, and also tried to repair it bit by bit. Such training was very necessary.
After all, in actual combat, he cannot always maintain an absolute energy balance. On-the-spot deployment must be mastered and proficient to the instinctive level. At the same time, he must find the threshold range so that he can control the steering wheel at any time.
In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had just finished lunch and was about to have a nice after-dinner cigarette, was interrupted by the sudden arrival of Minato and Kushina.
Hearing that Tatsuma had extracted the Nine-Tails Chakra, Sarutobi Hiruzen was so surprised that he kept rubbing the tobacco, not noticing that the tobacco was broken into pieces by him.
After being shocked, Sarutobi Hiruzen hurriedly took the two to the sealing class for examination, and the result of the examination was that Kushina's meridians and flesh and blood now had almost no Nine-Tails chakra.
If he hadn't known that a jinchūriki would die once he lost his tailed beast, Hiruzen Sarutobi would have suspected that in the process of extracting the nine-tailed chakra, Tatsuma had also taken away the nine-tailed body.
"After all, I underestimated Tatsuma. How is he doing now?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen had a look of emotion on his face, and then asked with concern. Just as Kushina was about to reply that Tatsuma was fine, Minato said first:
"Although I don't understand Tatsuma's methods, he has paid a heavy price and is still recuperating at Kushina's home. But don't worry, Hokage-sama, Kushina and I will take good care of Tatsuma."
"That's it"
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded slightly, not knowing what he was thinking. Kushina was a little confused. After all, Minato always respected the Sandaime, and she knew it.
But why would Minato lie to the Sandaime? Lying about Tatsuma? But Kushina did not show her doubts, and even nodded in cooperation with Minato in a very tacit understanding.
Minato knew that Tatsuma had never trusted Hiruzen Sarutobi. Although he didn't know why, he knew that Tatsuma was actually an insecure person, so it was difficult for him to trust others and he didn't like to tell the "truth" Tell others.
This is very strange, because Tatsuma is the kind of person who can bring a sense of security to others, but he himself is extremely insecure. But as one of the very few people trusted by Tatsuma, Minato doesn't want to let Tatsuma down. trust.
If Chenma were here, he would definitely hide something, or exaggerate the price he paid, and even take the opportunity to extort something based on his bad deeds in the past.
Minato couldn't do anything to blackmail Sarutobi Hiruzen, but he would still help Tatsuma, hide something, or mislead someone.
After all, these were things that didn't harm the interests of the village or anyone else, and Minato didn't mind.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also ended his thinking at this time, raised his head, looked at the two people with a kind smile and said: "Then you go back to take care of Tatsuma first, I will approve the mission.
As long as Kushina can maintain her current state before you set off, I will not stop her anymore. I hope you understand that the village is not deliberately making things difficult for you, just for the sake of the stability of the village. "
"Hokage-sama, I understand, and we all understand."
Minato smiled brightly and without any guilt after lying. He had the most outstanding ninja talent, including the ability to deceive others, but he was usually more willing to treat others with sincerity.
"Then let's go back first?"
"Um."
Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand, watched the two disappear, and murmured with a smile: "What a good boy, I was so eager to serve the village back then.
It's just that some things can only be understood if you slow down. These guys are still very young. Am I right? Longjian? "
Takashi nodded and agreed: "Yes, the new saplings want to grow strong as soon as possible and become strong trees that can protect others from wind and rain. Isn't this the will of fire?"
"Haha~ Yes, this is the will of fire."
Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled, looked at the sun that was beginning to set in the west, and said, "Those of us who are starting to grow old must continue to emit the afterglow and become nutrients for the saplings."
