Chapter 541 Konoha's Two Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Intelligence
"Sealing Technique: Separation of Soul and Body..."
Behind Konoha, Ishikawa, holding Naruto's right eye, expertly formed hand seals and roared. The Nine-Tails, trapped in the Great Burial Seal with only its head showing, suddenly bulged its eyes, and its Yin-attribute chakra soul was forcibly pulled out.
In the blink of an eye, almost the instant the Nine-Tails roared in resentment, Ishikawa directly packed it up and stuffed it into Naruto's body.
The next instant, "Four Symbols Seal—"
The Third Hokage, who had been preparing hand seals, struck out with one hand, and the black sealing technique instantly covered Naruto's abdomen. Then, it quickly contracted and flowed back, completely suppressing and sealing the Yin Nine-Tails.
"Roar! You despicable bastards, how dare you..."
Meanwhile, the Nine-Tails, its body half-extracted, roared furiously with eyes wide with rage, but before it could finish speaking, Kushina, protective of her offspring, interrupted it with her mouth, "Come back, Nine-Tails!!"
"Sealing Technique: Vajra Lockdown"
With a sharp shout, several golden chakra chains shot out, and Ishikawa immediately removed the Great Burial Seal.
Having lost half its power, the Nine-Tails was powerless to resist. It could only roar twice in grief and anger before Kushina forcibly dragged it back.
The third generation was also prepared, and without stopping, he stepped forward and formed hand seals again, "Seal..."
Combined with the previous Four Symbols Sealing Technique, the Third Hokage directly reinforced the seal with hand seals, completely sealing off any possibility of the Nine-Tails Yang emerging!
"Phew, that's it." Wiping the sweat from his forehead, the Third Hokage looked at Kushina, who was now full of energy and holding Naruto with great concern, and felt relieved. "Don't worry, Naruto won't let us down."
"From today onwards, his identity as a Jinchūriki will be classified as an S-class secret in Konoha. No one except the three of us knows this; to the outside world, he is simply the son of the Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Naruto."
"Thank you, Third Hokage, but Minato and the others..." Kushina hurriedly thanked them, then her eyes reddened as she thought of the missing Minato team and her face was filled with worry.
"Don't worry, Yongdai and the others will be fine," Ishikawa said with a smile, though he was inwardly anxious.
Although Eternal Girl had the protagonist's halo at this time, and was surrounded by a fully equipped Kakashi, Obito, and Rin, her opponent was, after all, the parasite of the Otsutsuki.
No, he can't just sit here and wait to die!
The transdimensional room is closed tonight, but it can be accessed again tomorrow night. He needs to go back and find the Fifth Hokage to try and use Kamui to open the space and communicate with Obito.
If that doesn't work, the only options are to try using the cheat code to fuse with the power of Xiao Chaomen or Xiao Zuomei's Karma, or try fusing with Jigen's flesh and blood to obtain the other party's power and see if you can open a spatial passage.
"Senior brother, what exactly did you just do?"
In the blink of an eye, just as Ishikawa was pondering a plan, Sasuke reappeared disguised as Tobi.
Having failed to catch Ishikawa and Jigen, he immediately went home and saw Sasami sleeping soundly in Itachi's arms.
As for Xiao Chaomen? He was naturally watching with wide eyes and a curious expression, staring at the even younger Xiao Zuomei...
Knowing that his senior brother had not compromised with the child, Sasuke naturally lost his previous impulsiveness and anger!
"That's not the point. I need to go back tomorrow night to ask the teacher for help. You might need to go back and prepare that plan." Ishikawa's words were concise, making Sasuke instantly understand that he was referring to the final candidate for the branch family plan.
Previously, it was confirmed that he was with Itachi and Mikoto's mother, but now that his mother has given birth to Sasami, this is a bit unexpected and there may be changes.
"Teacher? The plan?" The Third Hokage's eyes flashed with curiosity upon hearing this, but he didn't rush to ask further.
Anyway, I'll see that so-called teacher tomorrow night, so there's no rush.
"Wait..." Just as Ishikawa was about to leave with Sasuke, Orochimaru's voice suddenly rang out from afar.
Ishikawa turned his head and saw Orochimaru handing him his white fang sword, polished until it gleamed and spotless. "This is your ninja sword, Ishikawa-kun."
Ishikawa gave Orochimaru a deep look, then, without bothering to argue, sheathed his White Fang sword. "Thank you, Captain Orochimaru."
"Hmm, is the seal over?" Orochimaru nodded, glancing left and right, his long, serpentine eyes giving Kushina a meaningful look.
Her life force was rekindled, which means that the Nine-Tails has been resealed within Kushina's body.
But what happened when the Nine-Tails suddenly went berserk?
"Alright, Orochimaru. Now, let's go back and comfort the villagers and rescue the wounded. Order the Anbu to be on alert throughout the village to prevent any possible accidents or secondary attacks." The Third Hokage quickly interrupted, once again exercising his authority as Hokage.
Now that the Fourth Hokage is missing, no one would object to the Third Hokage regaining power at this special time, including the Fourth Hokage's wife, Kushina Uzumaki.
Orochimaru shrugged helplessly and nodded in agreement. Ishikawa immediately gave Sasuke a look and prepared to fly away and run away.
But at that very moment, "Bang!!"
Suddenly, a wisp of white smoke drifted past Orochimaru, and a small red-backed toad appeared out of thin air.
"Jiraiya's summoning frog? Isn't it too late for this guy to arrive now?" Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself, while Ishikawa Sasuke also glanced at him at the same time.
Just as he was about to speak, the toad opened its mouth wide and an arm emerged from it. Then, as if Jiraiya had appeared out of the palm-sized toad's mouth, he crawled out as if he had been conjured up.
"So, something has really happened in Konoha?"
Jiraiya quickly glanced around and his gaze turned serious as he looked at the wreckage of the battle and at Kushina and her son.
"Jiraiya-sensei, you're finally back! Minato..." Kushina cried out, unable to hold back her tears, upon seeing her teacher, who was like a father to Minato.
"Well, I accidentally forgot to come back and report while I was training ninjutsu at Mount Myōboku. I didn't expect that Nagato would actually team up with others to attack the village." Jiraiya explained, then waved his hand reassuringly, "But don't worry, Kushina, Minato and the others should be fine now."
"Nothing? How did you know, Jiraiya-sensei?" Kushina asked instinctively, and the others around her looked over at the sound of her voice.
Jiraiya didn't participate in the battle just now, but judging from his words, it seemed like he knew something...
The information that Nagato and Jigen attacked Konoha was something that Ishikawa would never have known without experiencing it firsthand.
and so--
"Well, I originally developed a very powerful ninjutsu, intending to secretly kidnap Nagato from Amegakure. But I overheard their conversation there, which is why I rushed back."
"I heard from that guy named Jigen that Minato and the others escaped to another dimension."
At this point, Jiraiya's expression turned serious as he looked at the Third Hokage, "Satori-sensei, Konoha might be in big trouble three years from now..."
[They escaped? Three years!!]
Ishikawa was overjoyed to hear this, never expecting that Jiraiya would bring such valuable strategic intelligence.
