Black Naruto: Shadow Moon

The power of the Nine-Tailed Fox is too strong. If it gets out of control, the consequences will be disastrous.

Uchiha Kagezuki looked at the Nine-Tails that was sealed so tightly, and an idea came to his mind: the tailed beasts actually did not need to be suppressed so cruelly. Perhaps there could be another more peaceful way for humans and tailed beasts to coexist.

In his conversation with Uzumaki Mito, Yingyue frankly raised this point.

Yingyue said: "Grandma Mito, although the Nine-Tails has great power, it is not impossible to live in harmony with humans. If we always regard it as a tool to be suppressed, its resentment towards Konoha will only grow deeper. When the future Jinchūriki's sealing skills are not good enough, once the Nine-Tails is unsealed, the consequences may be disastrous."

Mito nodded silently, she understood Yingyue's concerns.

Indeed, the future Nine-Tails Jinchuriki may not be able to control the Nine-Tails as firmly as she does.

She went on to say, "You are right. I have been working hard to train Kushina. She is the successor I chose. She has the powerful bloodline of the Uzumaki clan and is also very talented in sealing techniques. Now, she has learned enough sealing techniques to safely seal the Nine-Tails. However, if she wants to borrow the power of the Nine-Tails and truly coexist with it without relying on suppression, I am afraid she will need more experience and skills."

Yingyue continued, "I understand your concerns. The Nine-Tails is indeed too powerful. However, I think we can gradually give the Nine-Tails some freedom. For example, in its spiritual space, the seal does not need to be so tight. We can even release the Nine-Tails' chakra appropriately, allowing it to split a chakra clone to experience a little freedom. Perhaps in that way, its resentment towards Konoha will be alleviated."

Kyuubi glared at Yingyue from within the seal, and as he listened to their conversation, a complex emotion gradually arose in his heart.

Although it has always been full of hatred towards the Uchiha clan, Yingyue's words touched it.

For a tailed beast that has been trapped in a seal for decades, freedom is what it desires most.

Kyuubi thought to himself: "This Uchiha brat is actually willing to give me some freedom. However, I am not so easily bribed."

Uzumaki Mito pondered for a moment and nodded slowly: "Kageyue, what you said does make sense. I am old now, and the seal on the Nine-Tails is not as precise and strict as when I was young. If I can give the Nine-Tails some freedom, perhaps it will not make trouble as often as it does now, and its resentment will be alleviated."

Shadow Moon smiled and said, "Thank you, Grandma Mito. This way, Kushina may be able to establish a better relationship with the Nine-Tails in the future. And, when necessary, she can also borrow the Nine-Tails' power to protect Konoha."

Mito nodded, indicating that he agreed with Yingyue's proposal.

She would prepare to loosen the seal on the Nine-Tails, allowing it to feel a degree of freedom, while keeping a close eye on its reaction.

If this method could reduce its hatred, perhaps Kushina would find it easier to get along with it in the future.

Although the Nine-Tailed Fox looked disdainful on the surface, it was still a little shaken deep down in its heart. It thought to itself: "This Uchiha brat... maybe he is really different from guys like Madara."

When Uchiha Kagezuki and Uzumaki Mito continued to discuss the issue of the inheritance of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in the spiritual space, Kagezuki expressed his deep concern for Mito.

As the great-grandmother of the unborn child, Yingyue does not want Mito to face the fate of death due to the handover of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

Through the memories of his past life, Shadow Moon knew that once the tailed beast was extracted from the body of a Jinchūriki, the Jinchūriki would usually die, even if he voluntarily handed over the tailed beast.

This made Yingyue very worried, as he didn't want Mito to leave their lives.

Hearing Yingyue's worries, Uzumaki Mito smiled indifferently. She was already prepared mentally.

Mito explained, "Indeed, the chakra of the tailed beasts and the Jinchūriki is highly integrated. The extraction of the tailed beast will cause the Jinchūriki's vitality to quickly drain away, eventually leading to death. Even our Uzumaki clan, with their powerful vitality, cannot avoid this fate after losing their tailed beasts."

Yingyue frowned deeply and couldn't help asking: "Then there is no way to save the life of the Jinchuriki? After all, if Kushina becomes the new Jinchuriki, you..." He was reluctant to continue, and his words revealed his concern for Uzumaki Mito.

Uzumaki Mito patted Shadow Moon's shoulder gently, smiled and said soothingly: "Shadow Moon, don't worry too much. I originally planned to hand over the responsibility of the Nine-Tails to Kushina as soon as possible, so that I could accompany Hashirama earlier. But now, seeing you and Tsunade, and the great-grandson who is about to be born, I think I can wait a little longer. Kushina also needs time to learn more sealing techniques. At present, her strength is not enough to become the perfect Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails."

Yingyue finally put aside his worries a little, but he was still thinking in his mind, and asked: "Is there any way to develop a new sealing technique? When the tailed beast is extracted from the Jinchūriki's body, the Jinchūriki can survive and continue to maintain his vitality?"

Uzumaki Mito nodded thoughtfully: "Theoretically, it is possible. If we can separate part of the chakra of the tailed beast and leave some in the body of the Jinchūriki, then the vitality of the Jinchūriki will not be completely lost. In this way, it may be possible to keep the Jinchūriki alive. But the problem is that this kind of sealing technique has not been developed yet, and it is not easy."

During his discussion with Uzumaki Mito, Kagezuki had a clear direction in mind when he heard the theoretical basis of how the Jinchūriki could be immortal by extracting the tailed beasts.

He nodded and said, "That means the tailed beast can be extracted without killing the Jinchūriki. However, developing this sealing technique may be difficult, right?" His tone was firm and thoughtful.

Yingyue then continued to propose: "The Uzumaki clan's talent in sealing techniques is unquestionable. I can mobilize those clansmen in the Uzumaki country who are proficient in sealing techniques to help develop this sealing technique. I believe that they will be able to successfully complete this technique."

Uzumaki Mito smiled slightly, feeling Yingyue's concern and sense of responsibility.

She nodded, agreeing with Shadow Moon's suggestion, "Indeed, the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique is very advanced. In fact, if I had the time, I could develop this technique myself."

She paused, with a hint of tenderness and gratitude in her eyes, "But you have a heart, Yingyue. You don't want me to sacrifice for the Nine-Tails inheritance, but to spend more time with Tsunade and her unborn child. I am very happy to accept your kindness, and I hope to see you and Tsunade live a happy life."

Yingyue responded solemnly: "Grandma Mito, your existence is very important to Tsunade, and to me as well. I will do my best to ensure that both you and Kushina can complete the handover of the Jinchūriki smoothly, and that everyone can be safe."

Uzumaki Mito nodded with satisfaction: "Then leave it to you. If you and the Uzumaki clan work together, perhaps you can really solve this problem. I will do my best to assist you, and I believe that you will succeed."

Yingyue was more determined at this moment. He knew that this was a difficult task, but he must not give up.

So Uchiha Kagezuki set out to contact the Uzumaki clan of the Land of Whirlpools, hoping to use their power to speed up the development of this new sealing technique.

At the same time, Yingyue also began to think about how to mobilize the resources of the Dawn Organization to ensure that the research on sealing techniques can receive comprehensive support.
