Chapter 206: The Nine-Tailed One Almost Frightened to Death

"I'm going out to relax." She suddenly stood up, and a corner of the clothes in the bamboo basket was blown up by the wind.

Kaguya looked up at her, her long silver hair gleaming in the rain: "Now? But it's raining heavily..."

"Just right." Yu Xi walked to the entrance and took down a plain white oil-paper umbrella from the wooden rack.

Kaguya's fingers gently stroked the edge of the teacup: "Do you want me to accompany you?"

"No need." Yu Xi had already opened the door, and the humid wind carrying raindrops blew in her face.

The moment she opened her umbrella, a bolt of lightning split the night sky.

It illuminated half of her face, and her golden pupils looked like burning amber in the electric light.

The wooden clogs made crisp sounds as they stepped on the wet stone steps.

Yuxi walked slowly down the mountain path. The forest in the rainstorm seemed like another world.

The rain slid down the ribs of the umbrella and formed a small stream at Yuxi's feet.

She walked very slowly, as if every step was measuring the thickness of time.

The fog in the mountains grew thicker, almost completely engulfing her figure.

Only the plain white oil-paper umbrella was faintly visible in the darkness.

"This kind of weather is actually quite nice..." she whispered to herself

The sound was as faint as that of a mosquito or fly, and it seemed that if one was not careful one would be swallowed up by the weeping sound of the rain.

Unconsciously, she reached the entrance of Konoha Village. The lights of the village were reflected against the backdrop of the rain.

It appears particularly warm, like the stars in the night sky, emitting charming light.

Suddenly, the aroma of food wafted over, like a pair of gentle hands, gently plucking her heartstrings.

Her eyes followed the direction of the aroma and finally landed on the Ichiraku Ramen sign not far away.

"Maybe if I eat something, I won't care about those things." She thought to herself, and her feet involuntarily walked towards the ramen shop.

When she pushed open the slightly worn curtain, a warm breath blew over her face like a spring breeze, causing her body to tremble slightly.

The store was empty at this time, with only one person sitting in the corner.

Yuxi's footsteps paused slightly when she stepped into the store.

Her eyes were drawn to the figure as if by a magnet.

It was a familiar blond hair that looked a little dull in the dim light.

That orange coat is recognizable at a glance even with her back turned.

Uzumaki Naruto.

He sat there quietly, like a sculpture.

He stared blankly at the cold ramen in front of him, and his right hand unconsciously stirred the soup spoon, making a slight "ding-dong" sound.

Yuxi could clearly feel the depressed mood emanating from him.

"Welcome!" the hand-held uncle shouted loudly with a smile on his face, his voice revealing his warm welcome to the customers.

He looked at the heavy rain outside and couldn't help but sigh: "It's raining so hard so late, you are such a rare guest! Would you like to try the ramen I made today? It tastes absolutely first-rate!"

Yuxi nodded slightly to show her agreement.

She said softly, "Thank you for your help."

Although her voice was very soft, it was like a drop of water on the calm lake.

Yuxi chose a seat not too far from Naruto and sat down slowly, gently placing the plain white oil-paper umbrella in her hand against the table.

The rain on the umbrella slid down the ribs and gathered into a small puddle on the ground.

It is like a mirror, reflecting the lights and people in the store.

Seeing this, the uncle hurried into the kitchen and began to prepare ramen for Yuxi.

From the kitchen came the clatter of pots and pans, accompanied by the gurgling sound of boiling water.

Yuxi's eyes wandered around the store and inadvertently swept across the blond boy in the corner.

The soup bowl in front of Naruto suddenly cracked open, and soup slowly seeped out.

His body suddenly stiffened, and the soup spoon in his right hand fell onto the table with a clang.

"Kid! Come in! Now! Immediately!" The Nine-Tails' voice exploded in Naruto's mind, with unprecedented fear.

"Ah? What are you crazy about, stinky fox—"

Naruto's consciousness was forcibly dragged into his body by a brutal force.

The darkness receded like the tide, and he stood in front of the familiar iron fence. The sealed space was damp and cold.

But to his shock, the usually lazy and arrogant Kyuubi was now clinging to the edge of the innermost cage.

All nine tails exploded, and the scarlet pupils shrank to the size of a needle tip.

"What the hell are you doing, demon fox?" Naruto frowned in dissatisfaction, with a hint of annoyance in his tone, "Can't you see I'm thinking?!"

Kyuubi's voice suddenly trembled, as if he was extremely frightened.

It pointed its giant claws straight at the real world and shouted, "Idiot! Look who's sitting next to you!"

Naruto was startled by the Kyuubi's reaction, but he still looked in the direction it was pointing.

Yuxi's beauty looked even more dazzling under the light, especially her golden pupils.

There is a strange light flowing in the darkness, as if it contains endless mysteries.

"Isn't she just a pretty sister?" Naruto scratched his head and said disapprovingly, "Although the color of her eyes is a little special..."

However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the roar of the Nine-Tailed Fox.

"Idiot!" Kyuubi's roar was like thunder, shaking the entire consciousness space violently, "That is the 'God of Taijutsu' Yu Xi! Didn't your idiot teacher tell you? She is a monster who can unify the ninja world within a day!"

Naruto's expression froze instantly, his eyes widened, a look of disbelief on his face.

"Wait, you said she was the one... the one..."

His voice became a little stammering and his face turned as pale as paper.

"That's right!" The Nine-Tailed Fox's fangs flashed coldly in the darkness, and it stared at Naruto fiercely, "It's the legendary Yu Xi!"

Naruto swallowed hard, a gulp coming from his throat.

His voice trembled as he asked, "Then...what should I do? Run away?"

When the Nine-Tails heard what Naruto said, it sneered contemptuously.

As if he found Naruto's suggestion very ridiculous.

"Run?" There was a hint of sarcasm in its voice. "If she wanted to kill you, you would be dead now. There would be no chance of escape."

Just as Jiuwei finished his words, Yuxi in the real world suddenly seemed to realize something.

Her gaze seemed to be able to penetrate all obstacles and "look" directly at the sealed space inside Naruto's body.

When Nine-Tailed Fox felt Yuxi's gaze, it was like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
