Certainly! Here is the fully cleaned, Naruto-universe-aligned version of the chapter, with all your guidelines applied:
Just as Kurama was about to lose it entirely in a fit of helpless rage, the calm voice of Chomei—the Seven-Tails—echoed across the space, stopping the madness in its tracks.
"Shukaku, Kurama, both of you—enough," Chomei said firmly. "We're all born from the same source. Why fight each other?"
"It's been so long since we were last together like this," he added with a wistful tone. "It's just a shame that Gyuki, Son Goku, Kokuo, and Saiken aren't here."
Indeed, this rare gathering in the shared Tailed Beast subconscious space had been initiated by Chomei.
Among the tailed beasts, Chomei had always been the most easygoing—his calm nature and open spirit made him well-liked by the others. Even his awkward, beetle-like form didn't bother anyone; tailed beasts had no regard for human standards of beauty. To each other, they were simply kin.
As the tension eased, the beasts began to communicate privately through telepathy, their minds linked directly. For a moment, they left their jinchūriki hosts out of the conversation.
But then Chomei's jinchūriki stepped forward.
"Hey~ Hello, everyone~!" came a light, cheerful voice. "I'm Fū, the jinchūriki of Chomei. Please take care of me~!"
Her bell-like laughter and infectious positivity caught the attention of the other jinchūriki instantly.
She was the only perfect jinchūriki among them—someone fully synchronized with her tailed beast—and she admitted it with cheerful pride.
(She actually introduced herself that openly?) the others thought in surprise.
Before the silence could stretch, Naruto bounded forward with his trademark grin, giving a thumbs-up and pointing to himself.
"My turn, my turn!"
"I'm Uzumaki Naruto, jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails, Kurama! My favorite food is ramen, and I'm gonna be Hokage one day!"
His bold, straightforward introduction was met with stunned silence… and then a smile from Fū.
Seeing Naruto speak up, a shy voice followed from behind him.
"Hello… my name is Yūkimaru. I'm the jinchūriki of the Three-Tails, Isobu…"
Yūkimaru's soft-spoken words surprised even his own companion, utakata. Usually quiet and reserved, he'd mustered the courage to speak here, in front of people who would understand.
utakata, stirred by that courage and years of silent loneliness, finally found his voice too.
"…utakata. Jinchūriki of the Six-Tails, Saiken."
All eyes turned to Gaara, the last one remaining. Hesitation flickered in his eyes. Old memories surged—of the children who wouldn't play with him, the stares of fear and disgust, the loneliness so heavy it had nearly drowned him.
He froze. The world seemed to blur, like a half-remembered nightmare.
But before he could sink into the darkness, Naruto stepped right in front of him, bright-eyed and full of warmth.
"C'mon, it's your turn! I told you before—I still want to be friends with you!"
"Everyone here is a jinchūriki, just like you. No one's judging you!"
"We can all be friends now!"
Naruto's open-hearted sincerity cut through the fog in Gaara's mind. Slowly, his eyes cleared, and he looked back at Naruto.
"…My name is Gaara," he said hoarsely. "I'm the jinchūriki of the One-Tail, Shukaku."
As the words left his mouth, a soft, almost imperceptible smile appeared on Gaara's face.
If Yashamaru had been alive to see this moment, he would have recognized that smile—it was the same one Gaara had worn as a child, full of innocence and fragile hope.
Naruto beamed, throwing his arms over Gaara's shoulders.
"Haha! That's it!"
"Alright! When the exams are over, I'm treating everyone to Ichiraku Ramen back in Konoha!"
"Let me tell you, that miso butter pork is—"
He launched into his rambling sales pitch like a one-man commercial. Fū giggled and began chatting with Naruto, her usual shyness melting away in the warmth of this strange, impossible gathering.
For the first time in a long while, she felt genuinely happy.
—
Meanwhile, in their mental space, the five tailed beasts were having a private discussion.
"…Have any of you found that person the Sage of Six Paths spoke about?" Kurama asked, lounging on his side with one paw propping up his massive head.
The others looked at him, then shook their heads silently.
Kurama sighed.
(The Sage's prophecy… How long has it been? Thousands of years, and still nothing.)
(Maybe the old man was wrong. Maybe there is no one who can unite us…)
(All we've seen are humans who beat us down and sealed us away.)
Saiken—the Six-Tails—muttered bitterly, "And then came that one ninja… the one who stomped us all like insects…"
All the beasts went quiet.
They remembered that day vividly.
That terrifying man, with the power of a god…
That man was Hashirama Senju.
(He came at us like a goddamn chakra Buddha Gundam...)
The memory was enough to make even Kurama twitch in discomfort.
Then suddenly, a new presence appeared in the middle of the shared space—a faint outline, glowing with unfamiliar chakra.
Both beasts and jinchūriki turned sharply, eyes locking onto the figure as it slowly took form.
Naruto blinked.
"…Huh? Wait—isn't that Saya?"
After a few moments, the hazy silhouette fully solidified. Uchiha Saya stood calmly in the center of the space, looking around with open curiosity.
Her crimson eyes, patterned with a unique Mangekyō design, gleamed like twin whirlpools of blood and starlight.
The moment they saw the tomoe spinning in her gaze, every tailed beast tensed instinctively.
"An Uchiha?!" roared Kurama. "How the hell did you get in here?!"
"This space is for tailed beasts and their jinchūriki only!"
Saya tilted her head, unconcerned.
"Was it that hard?" she asked innocently.
She didn't fully understand it herself. She had sensed a strange chakra signature in the distance, marked the frequency with her Eight Thousand Spears jutsu, and focused her chakra and Mangekyō on it. Before she knew it, she had slipped inside.
What she didn't realize was that the chakra within her body, transformed by exposure to the Dragon Vein's natural energy, had reached a rare resonance.
Since the tailed beasts were fragments of the Ten-Tails—formed from pure natural chakra—the Dragon Vein's influence created a unique compatibility, allowing Saya to pierce the veil into their subconscious realm.
Saya looked around again, curious. "So… what were you saying earlier? Something about a 'person who can lead you'?"
"I'm curious. Mind explaining it to me?"
Her voice was soft and polite, but to the tailed beasts, it rang with sinister implication.
(Is she threatening us?!) Kurama thought, fur bristling.
In the very next second, Saya gave a mischievous smile, her Mangekyō glinting ominously.
"If you don't tell me…"
"I'll use my Mangekyō to force the truth out of you~ Hehehe (≖‿≖✿)!"
The five tailed beasts immediately went on high alert.
(Oh crap. She's one of those Uchihas.)
