Chapter 282 The Carrier of Memory

"Oh, really? That's great!" Naruto was extremely excited, and all the fatigue from fighting with "Dark Naruto" disappeared.

Hanabi gave him a suspicious look.

"No, don't be so happy. I'm just completing Mr. Yamato's task on his behalf." Luo Yi scratched his face in confusion.

The final training is the most dangerous. Naruto has to directly lift the seal of the Four Symbols in the ancient ruins inside the Waterfall of Truth, release the Nine-Tails and fight with it, using a form of "tug of war" to snatch the chakra of the tailed beast for his own use.

Yamato, who was supposed to be the guardian, was captured by a monster.

"Because, having Luo Yi verify my training makes me feel stronger." Naruto was very frank.

And what he said was true. The chakra dan (produced from the Golden Horn and the Silver Horn) refined by Lao Luo was ready.

The Nine-Tails' chakra in Naruto is only half of that of the Nine-Tails itself; in fact, it is less than half. The amount of chakra swallowed by the gold and silver brothers for two weeks is not negligible.

"Hehe...I see." It feels really good to be trusted.

After another six hours of rest, the sky gradually brightened and the final trial was about to begin.

By the way, there is good news: thanks to the careful preparations beforehand, the ninja coalition suffered no casualties last night due to the infiltration of White Zetsu, and the morale of the battle on the second day was very high.

"It's really a different world inside, much bigger than I imagined. Judging from the architectural style, it can be traced back to at least five hundred years ago..." Luo Yi raised his head and looked around, "Fireworks, don't you think it's spectacular?"

"Well... I saw it outside yesterday." Hanabi's rolling eyes didn't make her feel surprised at all.

Killer Bee glanced at the little girl, the sunglasses fixed on his face perfectly blocking his view and eyes, and he led the way while explaining, "This is the holy place where the people who are chosen as Jinchūriki perform the purification ceremony."

Then he stopped in front of a stone gate. Next to the stone gate was a stone sculpture of an animal head. "This is the place where you can fight the tailed beasts. Only the chosen ones can enter.

"Put your head into the mouth of the statue. If you are a good person and there is no darkness in your heart, the door will open. But if there is even a little bit of darkness, the door will not open, and the statue will bite off your head. Yo, yo~"

Luo Yi: "..." & Hanabi: "?"

As expected, he couldn't help but hum.

Naruto widened his eyes, sweated, pursed his lips, and stuck his head in. After just a few seconds, he said, "Hmm, Hmm...Ahhhhhh!"

The corner of Luo Yi's eye twitched, and he took a step forward to pull him out. Then, he was (not) surprised (and) disappointed to see the empty space above the collar of the headless Naruto.

Luo Yi: "?" & Hanabi: "..."

So that's how it is. Did he perform a transformation inside the beast's head? Luo Yi originally thought that he just retracted his head into his clothes. How could he possibly scare people if it was so intuitive?

"puff--"

After a few awkward seconds of silence, Naruto transformed back into his original form and scratched his head in frustration, "How come none of you fell for it?"

Kirabi: “I did exactly the same thing.”

Luo Yi: "You were playing pranks when we first met. You played much more pranks back then than you do now."

Hanabi: "I have Byakugan."

Naruto, who lost Yamato, was like a cat who lost his toy, and was dejected for a moment.

Fortunately, the stone door on one side opened smoothly. In fact, the animal head was just a decoration for the door switch, and there was no need to put the head in.

The inside of the stone gate was pure white. Stepping into it, Luo Yi had the illusion of leaving the real world, or even being in "that place" where the Law Judge was.

"This place exists to seal the tailed beasts. If you lose, the Nine-Tails will be completely resurrected until the next Jinchūriki appears." Killer Bee continued his enka rap explanation, "What's wrong, no way, are you backing out?"

"How is that possible? I will definitely succeed!" Naruto stretched out a fist.

"Good job! Then I'll close the door and get ready!" After the stone door closed, this pure white world became even more unreal.

The rules of "Chakra Tug of War" are simple: remove the seal of the tailed beast in the world of consciousness, release the tailed beast and then bind it with your own chakra, and finally strip the tailed beast of its chakra and control it.

As bystanders, Luo Yi and...wait, from Hanabi's focused eyes, it seemed that she could witness the battle between Naruto and the Nine-Tails in the world of consciousness.

He actually used a shoulder throw on the Nine-Tailed Fox's tail!

Where are your signature meatballs?

Fortunately, Naruto finally defeated the Nine-Tails with "Wind Style: Rasenshuriken" and began to extract the chakra of the tailed beast; but the Nine-Tails, unwilling to fail, mixed the hatred in his heart into the chakra.

"I hate you so much", "It hurts so much", "Save us", "I want revenge", "It's all because of this", "As long as you die"...

"What...is this?" Tomorrow's Sage Mode quickly faded, and a chakra coat symbolizing the power of the tailed beast began to emerge from his body.

An unprecedented evil of nature.

"The Nine-Tailed Fox's hatred is deeper than I thought! I might fail! This trial is much more difficult than my last one!" You can tell the seriousness of the situation from the fact that Killer Bee no longer raps.

"Don't worry, I'm here." Luo Yi took a step closer and put his hand on Naruto's shoulder.

Although I don't want to disturb his reunion with Kushina, but in order for them to spend more time together in the future...

...

"You guessed wrong! How could I be the Nine-Tailed Fox? It's clearly lying over there!"

"Boom-"

The first scene that Luo Yi saw when he entered the tailed beast's consciousness space was Kushina giving Lao Ming a slap from the sky.

Does it sound good? If it sounds good, that’s a good start.

Naruto is so stupid, and his mother is somewhat responsible.

"I've always, always wanted to see you, Mom." He wasn't that stupid, at least he reacted quickly and gave his mother a tearful hug.

Luo Yi knew what to do and said nothing, secretly hiding behind Jiuwei's ear.

Jiu Lama's expression was as if he had seen a ghost, "It's you! Luo..."

"Yes, it's me, ko no Kushina da!" The Uzumaki clan's unique chakra chain "Sealing Technique: Diamond Seal" burst out and tied up the Nine-Tails who was lying on the ground.

One was seeing his mother for the first time since he could remember, and the other was missing his son so much that neither Naruto nor Kushina realized that there was a third party involved.

So Luo Yi lifted Jiuwei's ear and lowered his voice, "Jiulama, pretend that I'm not here, otherwise... do you still remember the "Dragon Fist" last time?"

The main character is a person who convinces people with virtue.

The Nine-Tailed Fox has become obedient.

"In order to help you control the power of the Nine-Tails one day, Minato added my chakra to the seal, saying that he hoped it could become your power, Naruto..."

Naruto sat obediently, listening to his mother's stories about the past.

Luo Yi, who was eavesdropping, began to think quickly.

What kind of existence is Kushina here, a spirit powered by chakra? Or is she just an artificial intelligence that carries part of the mother's power and provides a one-time service for controlling the tailed beast?

But what is certain is that chakra can become a carrier of memory, connecting different worlds, the underworld and the world of the living, reality and consciousness.

"Mom is such a beauty. If I could be like her, I would definitely become a handsome guy, right? I want this cool straight red hair, too."

"Hehehe...you're the second person who said my hair looks good."

The topic between mother and son began to go off track.

"Well... forget it. We can't just talk about business after a long separation... Ah~ This fox fur doesn't prick the needles. It's soft and warm. Most importantly, it doesn't have any peculiar smell and is very comfortable to rub..." Lao Luo also started to slack off.

The Nine-Tailed Fox was still in an indecent posture with its legs up in the air, at the mercy of others.

A little while later.

"Okay! Let's talk about this for now. The chakra I use to suppress the Nine-Tails is almost exhausted. Now is the time... Huh?" Kushina had just cheered herself up and was ready to get down to business, but she discovered something unexpected.

"Uh...what's wrong, mom?"

"The Nine-Tails...seems like it has stopped resisting since some point, so the chakra is hardly consumed."

"Oh? Have you finished chatting? I'm awake." Luo Yi on the fox's head raised his hand. It turns out that he can sneak a nap here.

"Luo Yi? Why are you here?" Naruto felt that anyone could come in and sit down in his world of consciousness.

"I came to help you and Jiuwei," Luo Yi replied, but his eyes were fixed on Jiuwei, "This child is kinder than we thought... Jiuwei, the reason you are full of hatred is because you "remember" the souls of all the victims, right?"
