Chapter 71 Passing away

The tailed beast chakra, filled with violent aura, was like a volcano about to erupt. It suddenly erupted violently in all directions without any warning! The shock wave formed by the chakra was like a substance, with unparalleled power, instantly setting off an extremely violent chakra storm!

The tailed beasts truly deserve the name of natural disasters.

Qingsi, who was originally preparing to continue attacking the Vulpix, could clearly sense that the chakra power that burst out was extremely strong. Qingsi, who did not want to resist, had to retreat and avoid the attack.

Suddenly, a bitingly cold wind blew past, as if freezing the entire world.

At this moment, Base No. 6 had completely disappeared, having completely vanished in the aftermath of the battle, leaving only desolation and deathly silence.

Qingsi stared at the Vulpix in the distance with a cold and firm look in his eyes. He tightly grasped the bone blade in his hand, and a solemn aura emanated from his whole body.

"This position should be about right, I can start now." Qingsi thought secretly. This place was already far away from the place where Biwa Juzo and others had just fought.

Vulpix's huge pupils were also staring at Qingsi. This tiny insect actually dared to cut off its tail!

Qingsi and Vulpix confronted each other like this. As time passed, the atmosphere became more and more tense, and the air around them seemed to solidify.

Finally, Qingsi was the first to break the silence. He walked forward step by step, and each step he took was faster than the previous one. Soon, Qingsi's originally steady pace began to become hurried, and his steps became faster and faster, rushing towards the position of Vulpix.

-----------------

At Base No. 3, the Third Mizukage Bing, who had already subdued the Three-Tails, finally waited for the elder Haruyu who hurried over from the village and the Anbu Changken who was guarding him.

"Elder Chunyu, hurry up, let's seal the three-tailed beast back first!" Bing said anxiously, "The six-tailed beast is also going berserk at the same time. I sent the Shadow Guards over, but they won't be able to hold it back for too long. I need to rush over to support them as soon as possible!"

Chunyu nodded, indicating that he understood, then put down the sealing pot in his hand and quickly began to make complicated seals with his hands.

Seeing this, Bing also started to make seals at the same time as Chunyu. After a long time of making seals, they both ended with the Yin seal. Then they put their index and middle fingers together and pointed at the three tails that were frozen in ice.

"Ninjutsu: Ryogi Seal!"

Under the effect of the sealing technique, the huge body of the Three-Tails began to shrink slowly, as if being squeezed by an invisible pressure. As time went on, the body of the Three-Tails became smaller and smaller, and finally turned into dark red chakra and was sealed back into the body of the Three-Tails Jinchūriki.

When the last trace of chakra was sealed into the body of the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, the air around them seemed to freeze for a moment. Then, everything returned to calm, as if nothing had happened. Only the rich chakra fluctuations of the tailed beasts that remained in the air proved that the thrilling battle just now had existed.

Bing steadily caught the Three-Tails Jinchuriki falling from the sky. At this moment, the dying Three-Tails Jinchuriki opened his eyes as if he was having a last breath.

“Cough… cough… cough………!!! I’m sorry, Third-generation Master!”

The Three-Tails Jinchuriki gasped with difficulty, and every breath was as painful as if it was burned by fire, and the hoarse voice seemed to be squeezed out from the depths of his throat. Blood continued to overflow from the corners of his mouth, forming a shocking red line, and tears continued to flow from his bloodshot eyes like a flood that broke through the dam.

As consciousness gradually returned, the Three-Tails Jinchuriki saw devastation everywhere he looked. Broken buildings, fallen trees, and bodies and blood all over the ground, these scenes lingered in his mind like a nightmare.

A strong sense of self-blame surged in his heart, and he finally realized what he had done. Those once familiar faces had now become cold, and they all lost their lives because of him. He closed his eyes in pain, tears welled up again, his body trembled uncontrollably, and his heart was filled with endless regret and guilt.

The experience of a lifetime was playing quickly in front of his eyes like a movie, and the scenes in his memory kept flashing by like a revolving lantern. In the last moment of his life, the Three-Tails Jinchuriki was filled with guilt for his dead companions and his nostalgia and reluctance to give up life.

Raising his right hand with difficulty, the Three-Tails Jinchuriki clenched his right fist in the air, as if trying to grab something.

Looking at the dying Three-Tails Jinchuriki, Bing was silent for a moment, and then asked the Three-Tails Jinchuriki in a low voice: "Do you... have any other wishes?"

After hearing Bing's question, the Three-Tails Jinchuriki's eyes lit up slightly, and he used up his last bit of strength to ask, "Thank you, Third-sama. After I die, please bury me here. I want to be with my wife forever. Finally, please ask the village to take good care of my child Yugao. He is less than one year old now."

Before the Third Mizukage Bing could answer, Chun Yu at the side spoke first: "You are a hero who sacrificed for the village. I will accept your child as my apprentice and raise him. You can go without worry!"

Seeing Haruyu open his mouth, Bing didn't say anything else and nodded slightly at the Three-Tails Jinchuriki.

As an unsung hero of Kirigakure, this reasonable request must be fulfilled.

The Three-Tails Jinchuriki, who received a satisfactory answer, slowly closed his eyes. His life breath began to weaken rapidly, and his life fire was quickly extinguished.

Bing and Haruyu, who were used to seeing life and death separations, still felt a little unhappy. After all, the Three-Tails Jinchuriki had given everything for the village.

The two did not communicate anymore, but silently formed hand seals. While the Three-Tails Jinchuriki's life fire was still burning, they pulled the Three-Tails out of his body and sealed it in the sealing pot that Haruyu brought from the village.

After calming down his slightly sad mood, Bing said to Jian, "You are responsible for escorting the Sealing Pot back to the village immediately. Elder Chunyu and I will go to Station No. 6 to deal with Vulpix."

(The official official book shows that the Six-tailed Jinchuriki Yutaka died at the age of 26. He should have been captured by Pain during the Shippuden era and the tailed beast was extracted, but there is no clear time of death. So it is roughly speculated that it should be around the same time as Gaara was captured, which is around the 63rd year of Konoha. So his birth year is about 35-37 years in Kirigakure. This book sets him to be born in the 35th year of Kirigakure, a little earlier, to make up for the process of his acquaintance with his master, Elder Harusame.)
