Chapter 421 9-Tail's Conditions

Everyone in the restaurant sat in their own groups. It was always like this on normal days. On ordinary days, people could just eat simply without having to gather together at a big table like they were having a meeting to create a sense of ceremony. This also naturally left Naruto and his mother with space to be alone.

Kushina was experiencing the simulated eating function brought by the prosthetic device, looking at the shadow clones surrounded in the distance, and teasing Naruto for being popular. Soon, a more courageous researcher appeared. He dared to come and disturb the guests directly. Of course, he had something to rely on - he didn't hit a smiling person, and he didn't have empty hands.

The shadow clone can neither catch nor take out anything. Even if it is possible to indirectly use the Nine-Tails' chakra, it is only a matter of time before it comes to find Naruto's real body. In order to seize the initiative, the necessary risks are completely acceptable.

"Nice to meet you. This is the special food we prepared for summoning beasts that is a chakra aggregate."

——Similar to the box that Sasuke gave to Tsunade, it is a chakra energy block made from recycled energy ore materials, but there are some differences.

The researcher specially opened the box to display the various shining crystals, which were indeed very appetizing, but the researcher did this more in an attempt to use the chakra fluctuations emitted from them to attract the Nine-Tailed Fox to respond.

"Ah, thank you~"

It was specially prepared for the tailed beasts, and they asked for his help... Naruto really needed some props to increase his favorability, so he didn't refuse.

"You know, we have the artificial tailed beast Zero-Tail here, but there is a gap between tailed beasts. It would be great if the Nine-Tail could give us some feedback after using it."

"I can't guarantee that. Kyuubi..."

"It's okay, it's okay. Just give some simple feedback, like it or not. Even if the Nine-Tails rejects it, it's still a result. Of course, it would be better if you could give some specific suggestions for improvement, such as what chakra properties, hardness or flavor you like."

After the harassment was over, he left his laboratory contact address and turned away. There was nothing difficult about getting along with Jinchūriki. As for other risks, before the experimenter took two steps, he saw:

"If you fail to submit an application for use in advance according to the process, you will not be allowed to reimburse the funds."

It's not that Sasuke was always monitoring everyone on the island, he wasn't that idle. The fact was that he was delivering things to Naruto right under his nose, and he couldn't pretend he didn't see it. If he didn't restrict it, it would be more likely to be understood as tacit consent.

It's a bit painful, but there are various reimbursement channels. If you don't use funds, you can also use the experimental damage report channel, but the amount is limited. The funds of millions of taels are not cash, but it doesn't make much difference.

The researcher could only comfort himself: This shows that the leader doesn't mind them contacting Naruto. It's not a loss to get some information in return.

The Nine-Tailed Fox lay silently inside Naruto's body. During the meal, Naruto was exhausted from dealing with it and had no mental preparation to respond.

Even if Naruto felt it was troublesome, he would not refuse others directly. If Sasuke had not ordered those people to restrain themselves a little, Naruto would not know when he could have peace.

Wandering around and chatting with Kushina, although Yakumo Castle has no landscape construction plan, the scenery above the clouds is rare enough. Watching the sunset, the stars and the moon, until late at night, Naruto reluctantly said goodbye to his mother and went back to the guest room. Naruto can sleep, but he doesn't know that people who are resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation don't need to sleep. There is no need for Naruto to worry about this, and Kushina doesn't mention it.

In the second half of the night, there was another sleepless person who could spend time with Kushina, her master, Uzumaki Mito, who was also a member of the Impure World Body. She wanted to know what had happened in recent years, what the Uchiha thought, and why Naruto was not in the village. She also had many questions that she could ask Sasuke, but obviously he was not the best choice.

"Now, this is food they say, you're really not going to try it?"

"It's pretty, but as hard as glass..."

"Just get the chakra out of it?"

Naruto talked to himself and performed a monologue in front of the Nine-Tails.

Before going to bed, he went to Jiuwei to ask for some reaction one last time. So many people had contacted Jiuwei through him today. Maybe the agreement was perfunctory or reluctant, but since he had agreed, he would help ask. Even if there was no result in the end, it would still be considered that he had helped.

As a small-scale energy surged, Naruto accidentally spilled the energy cube in his hand, and quickly released his own chakra to try to gather some...

The abundant chakra almost does not need to be absorbed and refined by the body. It is much more efficient than pills, potions and the like. It seems to be water-attributed chakra. Even if the properties are not compatible, there are no side effects at all.

At this moment, there was only one thought in my mind: this thing must be very expensive.

The definitely high price made Naruto feel a little more guilty for not being able to help. Before leaving, he took one last look at the Nine-Tails. There was nothing he could do. He couldn't influence his mind even if he used force.

After leaving the spiritual space, Naruto gathered his thoughts and prepared to fall into a dream again, when the voice of the Nine-Tails came to his mind slowly.

"Don't you want to use my chakra? I can give you a chance."

Naruto sat up in shock, his eyes wide open, the fox had bubbled up on its own initiative!

"Really? Big fox, how did you suddenly figure it out?!"

The Nine-Tails naturally ignored Naruto's words and firmly grasped the rhythm of the conversation.

"I want you to defeat Sasuke."

"I can lend you my chakra, but if you lose, I don't mind playing tug-of-war with you every time at a critical moment in the future~"

What? Want him to defeat Sasuke?

Naruto has been an "ever-victorious general" since he was a child. Although Sasuke has made some progress recently and can now compete with him on equal terms, if he had the Nine-Tails' chakra, wouldn't it be easy to defeat Sasuke?

There seemed to be something wrong when Nine-Tail said this, but there were too many things going on today. I had already closed my eyes and was too sleepy to think deeply.

"You said it! Don't deny it when the time comes!"

"If Sasuke let it go on purpose, I won't admit it."

"Of course he doesn't need to release the water!"

At dawn, when Naruto opened his eyes, he immediately remembered today's top task: to challenge Sasuke to a fight.

Kyuubi actually made a bet on something like this. Maybe he was just trying to save face and find a random excuse to give in.

Yakumo Castle is huge, but the area where buildings are concentrated is still a little different from Konoha. It is easy to find Sasuke's location by spreading the chakra.

Naruto flashed away, not realizing that the large number of "greeting gifts" he had received yesterday had all been accepted by the Nine-Tails, and now only the packaging was left.

It was originally a tribute to him, so the Nine-Tailed Fox naturally had no psychological burden to receive it, but because of face, he chose to wait until Naruto fell asleep before enjoying the tribute. I didn't expect that the defective product called Zero Tail would live so comfortably... Although it is called Zero Tail, it also has such a long tail. Next time if there is a chance, I can use it to make fun of Shukaku, the stupid tanuki.
