Chapter 59 The Nine-Tailed Fox Reappears
Chapter 59 The Nine-Tailed Fox Reappears
"Hey, Zetsu, you should have already found out where the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is, right?" Uchiha An asked the White Zetsu beside him as he ran quickly.
"Of course." White Zetsu swam quickly through the soil, leading the way. "Originally, Konoha Village arranged for these ninja academy students to go to the shelter together."
"But the Jinchūriki named Naruto Uzumaki refused to hide with his classmates and insisted on going to save the village."
"Oh, right, I forgot to tell you, that little guy somehow managed to use the power of the Nine-Tails, although he only has four tails right now."
"Huh?" Uchiha An immediately felt displeased.
He really is the main character!
When they start using cheat codes, it's as easy as eating and drinking!
Bai Jue, still unaware of the seriousness of the problem, continued to chatter on:
"I think it's because Minato appeared before that the original Four Symbols Seal loosened, which is why he was able to control some of the Tailed Beasts' power."
"But it's not a big problem."
"It's just four tails, so his chakra reserves are limited. Besides, he's still young; he's probably only just learned the Three Body Technique and doesn't know any other ninjutsu."
"You can solve this easily."
"Hmph!" Uchiha An snorted coldly, retorting sarcastically, "What do you know!"
"Don't let his current four tails fool you; he can transform into nine tails at any time if needed!"
"As for ninjutsu, he can just use his tailed beast form to create hundreds of clones and fight them with his fists. What need is there for ninjutsu?"
"So far, only his father has appeared once; his ancestors haven't shown up yet!"
"That'll be interesting when his ancestors show up!"
"His ancestors?" Bai Jue was taken aback for a moment, but quickly shifted his attention to another direction.
"I don't know what a fart is, but I'd rather know what it feels like to need to poop?"
Do you know what it feels like to need to poop?
"..." Uchiha An was speechless for a moment, and didn't want to continue talking to this vegetable.
But the two had only gone halfway when they heard a loud roar ahead, and then they saw a huge, fiery red fox standing proudly in the middle of Konoha Village, roaring.
"..." Uchiha An turned to look at White Zetsu speechlessly. "Didn't you say that Obito didn't go after the Nine-Tails? What's going on here?"
White Zetsu looked equally bewildered. "I don't know!"
Uchiha An looked up at the berserk Nine-Tails, then looked at White Zetsu with a contemptuous gaze.
"Aren't you supposed to be able to create countless clones? How come you don't know what's going on?"
"...Wait a minute!" Bai Jue was provoked by his words and immediately stopped and closed his eyes.
A moment later he opened his eyes again, his expression strange, and said:
"Ah, I understand."
"It's that new guy, Kakuzu!"
"Their group planned to slaughter those medical ninjas to lure Tsunade out. But who knew that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki would suddenly appear to save them."
"Just after Kakuzu ripped out the heart of a ninja academy teacher who was chasing a Jinchūriki, that Nine-Tails Jinchūriki went berserk."
"The Nine-Tails is chasing Kakuzu right now!"
"Huh?" Uchiha An immediately gloated, "That guy's got some skills!"
"He completed the mission for Obito with ease; Obito should really thank him!"
"Oh dear, they're all our comrades, it's not good to gloat like that!"
Bai Jue twisted his body, saying nice things, but his face was already beaming with joy.
"Hey, let's go over and help!"
"We can't let him take the blame for the people of Konoha!"
"Alright!" Uchiha An remained noncommittal. "We're going to have to show up sooner or later anyway, so let's just do it right here in Konoha and let the people of Konoha witness the wrath of the Uchiha!"
So the two quickened their pace and rushed towards the Nine-Tails.
The Nine-Tails was such a huge creature that when it stood in the village, it was practically a mockery to everyone around it. All the Konoha ninjas rushed over to stop it, but hardly anyone came to stop Uchiha An and his companion.
Soon the two arrived near the Nine-Tails, where Kakuzu was running around like a mouse in a bellows.
His Akatsuki uniform was tattered, revealing the black tentacles stitched underneath, and it was unknown how many hearts he had lost.
But those Konoha ninjas kept harassing him and blocking his escape routes.
Every time he tried to change direction to dodge the Nine-Tails' attacks, a ninja would always manage to block him in time. Kunai and shuriken attacked from all sorts of tricky angles, along with various explosive tag traps, poisonous insects, puppets, and other annoying things.
The Nine-Tails kept its eyes glued to Kakuzu, slapping him repeatedly with its large paws, each time it missed and causing the ground to tremble violently.
With enemy forces in front and tailed beasts behind, Kakuzu was incredibly frustrated!
He should have been on the same side as the Tailed Beasts, but because Obito missed his appointment, the enemy and the Tailed Beasts ended up working together instead.
However, his situation is relatively good, after all, he is still alive, and his five hearts give him a survival ability far beyond that of ordinary people.
Unlucky Juzo Hibiki wasn't as fortunate as him.
His body lay tragically on the ground, severed in two like the beheading blade, his internal organs spilling out onto the ground, and he was completely cold.
"Oh ho, they actually lost some members, how embarrassing!" Uchiha An grinned, but his heart was completely unmoved.
Although they were in the same organization, they didn't have much of a relationship. They didn't even bother to exchange pleasantries at gatherings, and he didn't care who died.
Moreover, not everyone in the Akatsuki organization is at the Kage level.
This Juzo Biwa is a notorious fraud, making a living entirely from the Executioner's Blade. Even if he doesn't die now, he will most likely die at Kakuzu's hands in the future.
"Hey, stop standing here making sarcastic remarks. Hurry up and control the Tailed Beast, or we'll lose another one soon." White Zetsu buried half his body in the ground and said in a flippant tone.
"Hey, White Zetsu, you don't need to worry about Kakuzu. He's a veteran powerhouse who once tried to assassinate Hashirama Senju and survived!"
Uchiha An scoffed, but his hands moved swiftly, forming hand seals and shouting at the Nine-Tails:
"Hey, you big fox over there, look this way!"
However, Kurama is currently affected by Naruto's emotions, and his mind is full of killing Kakuzu to avenge Iruka-sensei. He is deaf to the voices of the outside world and doesn't even turn his head.
"Tsk! That's disrespectful!"
Uchiha An muttered a dissatisfied remark, and with a thought, crimson chakra surged forth from his body like flames once more, rapidly condensing and taking shape. Susanoo rose from the ground, charging towards the Nine-Tails.
He rushed to the Nine-Tails in a few steps and swung his scepter, striking the Nine-Tails' head hard.
"Hey, big fox, I'm talking to you, you'd better look me in the eye!"
With a "bang," the Nine-Tails was struck by his staff and staggered back a few steps, its massive body swaying.
This enraged the Nine-Tails. It roared and turned to face him, opening its mouth. And then... that was the end of it.
The Sharingan is incredibly effective against tailed beasts!
Uchiha An merely glared and unleashed a genjutsu, and Kurama immediately became docile, as obedient as a house cat.
Its eyes revealed the fiery red Sharingan reflection, and in an instant, it transformed into Uchiha Fox.
"Haha..." Uchiha An hadn't expected things to be so simple. He immediately burst into laughter, canceled his Susanoo, and leaped onto the Nine-Tails' head. Pointing his hand forward, he declared, "Target: Destroy Konoha!"
