Chapter 102: Chapter 102: Trust Me
The tailed beasts had been living peacefully in their respective territories before encountering humans.
However, once humans discovered the immense power held by the tailed beasts, they realized that these creatures could tip the balance of the shinobi world.
Thus, nations began capturing the tailed beasts scattered across the shinobi world, sealing them within Jinchuriki to harness their potent chakra.
This was why when Ryujiro mentioned saving the Nine-Tails, it smirked mockingly.
To humans, the Nine-Tails was a symbol of disgust and hatred.
Presently, it hadn't been influenced by Naruto enough to rid itself of these feelings. At this point in time, Kurama remained a powerful and malevolent tailed beast.
"To be precise, it's not about saving just you, but saving all of you," Ryujiro said calmly.
"Kurama, the Ten-Tails is about to be resurrected," Ryujiro continued, his gaze fixed on the Nine-Tails.
"What did you say?!" Instantly, the Nine-Tails' expression became unsettled. Its crimson eyes widened in disbelief as it stared at Ryujiro.
As tailed beasts, they were familiar with the concept of the Ten-Tails.
They were originally split from the chakra of the Ten-Tails, and fundamentally, they were manifestations of its chakra.
But hadn't the body of the Ten-Tails been sealed away by the Sage of Six Paths on the moon?
How did this kid know about the Ten-Tails?
If what this kid said was true, it posed an unprecedented crisis for them as tailed beasts.
Once consumed by the Ten-Tails' body, it would mean true death for them, as they were essentially composed of the Ten-Tails' chakra.
"The Two-Tails, Matatabi ."
"The Three-Tails, Isobu."
"The Four-Tails, Son Goku."
"And the Five-Tails...."
"They have all been captured. Once all of you tailed beasts are captured and consumed, none will understand the consequences better than you," Ryujiro continued calmly, facing off with the Nine-Tails.
This brat actually knew the names of the other tailed beasts. The Nine-Tails fell silent.
The resurrection of the Ten-Tails wasn't just a concern for the tailed beasts; it meant the destruction of the entire shinobi world, including the world built by the Sage of Six Paths.
Regarding humans, some tailed beasts liked them and some hated them but none of them wanted this world to be destroyed.
After all, this world was created by the Sage of Six Paths, and not a single tailed beast harbored ill feelings towards him.
"Can I trust you, brat?" The Nine-Tails finally spoke after a long silence, its eyes fixed on Ryujiro.
Ryujiro smiled faintly, "It's not for me to decide. If you don't trust me, my words are meaningless."
Suddenly, Ryujiro pointed to Naruto, who stood beside them like a puppet, lost in thought. "Do you know him?"
"Him?"
"Isn't this kid the son of the Fourth Hokage?" the Nine-Tails scoffed disdainfully.
The Fourth Hokage sealed half of his own chakra away, so the Nine-Tails within Naruto wasn't complete.
This vast difference in strength between the Nine-Tails and the other tailed beasts was evident.
Even the half of the Nine-Tails, was still stronger than the other eight tailed beasts.
"He is indeed the son of the Fourth Hokage," Ryujiro confirmed calmly. "But he is also the reincarnation of Asura's chakra."
Asura?! The Nine-Tails stared wide-eyed at the diminutive Naruto.
Meanwhile, Ryujiro's revelation left even the Nine-Tails unable to fathom or understand.
Asura's chakra was something from the era of the Sage of Six Paths, and ninjas of this era shouldn't know about it.
The reincarnation of Asura's chakra... If this was true, then who was the reincarnation of Indra's chakra?
No, that's not the focus right now.
"Brat, I trust you," the Nine-Tails' voice echoed within the sealing space.
The mysterious kid before it was too strange, even for a tailed beast that had lived countless ages.
Ryujiro's lips curved into a smile.
He had finally convinced the Nine-Tails.
"It's simple. Just guide Naruto to use your power," Ryujiro said lightly. "I hope you can cooperate with Naruto."
Just cooperating with the kid to guide his own power? Was it really that simple?
The Nine-Tails was stunned. It had thought Ryujiro would make some demands.
"I agree to this," the Nine-Tails responded. Since it had agreed to Ryujiro, it wouldn't be jumping around inside Naruto anymore.
Moreover, if someone was truly intent on resurrecting the Ten-Tails, breaking the seal and returning to the shinobi world would be even more dangerous.
As for what would happen next, Ryujiro hadn't figured it out yet.
His communication with the Nine-Tails this time was simply to persuade it to cause less trouble and stay quietly within Naruto.
After Ryujiro's spirit withdrew from the sealing space, Naruto, who had been harmed by the tailed beast chakra invasion, had completely recovered to his original state.
It was also time for Jiraiya to return to the real world.
In Jiraiya's eyes, the battle was gradually coming to an end.
Finally, Ryujiro defeated the tailed beast-transformed Naruto. In an instant, Jiraiya seamlessly returned to reality without any discord.
Watching the unconscious Naruto, Jiraiya hurried over.
"Is Naruto okay?" Jiraiya asked anxiously.
"He's fine. Although his body was affected by the tailed beast chakra, it also healed the burns on his body caused by the same chakra," Ryujiro said slowly.
Upon hearing this, Jiraiya couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, he remembered the seal on Naruto's body. He lifted Naruto's clothes, but when he saw the seal on his abdomen, he was stunned.
What's going on?
The seal had actually healed itself?!
Seeing this scene, Ryujiro couldn't help but smile. The Nine-Tails was a bit too amusing. It had reinforced the seal within its own body.
After confirming that Naruto was fine, Jiraiya showed a serious expression of gratitude to Ryujiro. "Ryujiro, thank you."
Ryujiro waved his hand dismissively. "It's nothing."
"Regardless, Naruto is my friend. I couldn't just stand by and do nothing."
"However, you did take too much risk this time. You underestimated the power of the Nine-Tails."
"Yes, I underestimated it."
Jiraiya repiled, lowering his head and smiling bitterly.
"The power of the Nine-Tails is not comparable to that of the other tailed beasts."
If Ryujiro hadn't appeared in time, he wouldn't have been able to stand here intact. Even if he didn't die, he would have been hanging by a thread.
Ryujiro glanced at Jiraiya, who was blaming himself, and patted his shoulder. "Don't blame yourself for what happened to Naruto. It's not your fault."
"Next, you can rest assured and teach Naruto to control the Nine-Tails' chakra," Ryujiro said lightly.
Jiraiya looked up at Ryujiro, puzzled. "Why?"
Ryujiro smiled confidently. "Because of me."
