Chapter 119 - Splitting the Three-Tails! (Four Chapters Requesting Everything!)

Chapter 120: Splitting the Three-Tails! (Four updates, seeking everything!)

Konoha, November 20th, Year 46.

Today was the day Namikaze Minato officially took over as the Fourth Hokage.

However, Sarutobi Asuma's main body wasn't attending the ceremony. Instead, he was at the experimental base within the Senju Ancestral Home.

It wasn't just him; Tsunade, Jiraiya, and even Uzumaki Kushina's main bodies were all here as well.

Because today was the day to split the Three-Tails!

Sarutobi Asuma wasn't as nervous. It was just the Three-Tails, after all.

But since Tsunade and the others were on high alert, he couldn't do anything about it.

Everything was prepared.

Kakashi, Shizune, and Kurenai were outside the room, watching through the glass.

Inside the room, Rin Nohara lay on the floor, which was covered in black tadpole-like formulas, looking a bit nervous.

Tsunade stood at Rin's head.

Jiraiya and Uzumaki Kushina were on the sides.

Sarutobi Asuma, however, was suspended in the air above Rin Nohara, sitting cross-legged.

Two Truth-Seeking Balls floated behind his head, while one was transformed into a black rod, held in his right hand.

"Rin, don't be nervous," Sarutobi Asuma said with a gentle smile.

"Mm, I believe in you, Asuma!" Rin Nohara nodded.

Sarutobi Asuma's smile and confidence greatly eased her nervousness.

"It's about to begin!" Sarutobi Asuma said to Tsunade and the other two.

The three nodded in unison, their faces solemn.

Facing a creature like a Tailed Beast, they couldn't be too cautious.

The black rod formed from Sarutobi Asuma's Truth-Seeking Ball extended downwards, landing on Rin Nohara's exposed fair abdomen.

"Release!" Sarutobi Asuma commanded in a low voice.

The next moment, dark symbols appeared around Rin Nohara's navel, and then these symbols dissipated into smoke with a hiss.

The Kirigakure's seal had been broken!

Immediately after, a vast and malevolent chakra erupted outwards, solidifying into a scarlet form.

"It's truly so powerful!"

"No wonder Kirigakure had a plan to let a Tailed Beast cause chaos in the village!" Kurenai Yūhi and the others outside were greatly shocked.

At this moment, Rin Nohara let out a pained groan. The Three-Tails was drilling its way out, and she felt her life force, even her soul, being pulled outwards, her body feeling as if it were being torn apart by this terrifying, evil power.

At the position where her head was, Tsunade had completely unleashed the Yin Seal and activated the Hundred Healings Technique. Her immense chakra caused her hair to float.

She made hand seals and activated the medical ninjutsu formula laid out beneath Rin Nohara, injecting her Yang Release chakra into Rin Nohara's body through this formula, transforming it into life force.

This technique was called Heavenly Sun Life Transfer!

It was jointly developed by Sarutobi Asuma and Tsunade, representing an extreme application of Yang Style Chakra Nature Transformation. While it couldn't bring the dead back to life, it could prolong the life of someone on the brink of death.

The pain lessened.

At this moment, the surging chakra suddenly transformed into three tails and slammed towards Sarutobi Asuma.

"Naughty," Sarutobi Asuma raised an eyebrow. With a wave of his right hand, the black rod turned into a blade, smashing the three tails, which then dispersed into chakra.

Just then, one of the Three-Tails' heads emerged from Rin Nohara's abdomen. It tilted its head back, opened its mouth, and chakra rapidly condensed, forming a Tailed Beast Bomb at an accelerated pace.

The blade in Sarutobi Asuma's hand once again became a black rod. With a gentle poke, the not-yet-fully-formed Tailed Beast Bomb collapsed.

Whoosh!

Adamantine Sealing Chains whizzed out from Sarutobi Asuma's back. One chain locked onto the Three-Tails' neck, while the other four drilled into Rin Nohara's body, completely binding the Three-Tails.

"Bastard!" The Three-Tails roared, its eyes fixed on Sarutobi Asuma, but revealing a look of dread and fear. This human brat was too powerful!

He actually mastered the Truth-Seeking Ball!

"Honestly, follow my plan, or you'll eventually become part of the Ten-Tails!"

Sarutobi Asuma's voice entered the Three-Tails' consciousness.

The Three-Tails' pupils contracted, and it looked at Sarutobi Asuma in shock, "He actually knows..."

"Who is he?"

"Sage of Six Paths... no!"

"Who are you?"

The Three-Tails asked, but Sarutobi Asuma didn't answer. He proceeded as planned, pulling out two-thirds of the Three-Tails' body, then with a swift stroke of the knife transformed from a Truth-Seeking Ball, he split the Three-Tails in half, separating yin and yang.

The yin-attribute Three-Tails was stuffed back into Rin Nohara, while the yang Three-Tails was bound by Adamantine Sealing Chains.

"Kushina-nee!"

Sarutobi Asuma shouted.

"Understood!"

Uzumaki Kushina responded with a low grunt. Though her expression was serious, her eyes sparkled with excitement.

Summoning Jutsu!

A small black bathtub with a lid was summoned by Uzumaki Kushina. Then, with a splash, Adamantine Sealing Chains roared out from her back, sealing the yang Three-Tails from Sarutobi Asuma and pulling it into the black bathtub.

Uzumaki Kushina quickly formed hand seals: "Tail Sealing Method!"

The Adamantine Sealing Chains broke apart, transforming into numerous chains that locked the yang Three-Tails' three tails, body, and head at the bottom of the black bathtub.

It was the exact same treatment as the Nine-Tails within Uzumaki Kushina.

The yang Three-Tails lay at the bottom of the bathtub, completely immobilized.

"Damn humans!"

The yang Three-Tails roared, its eyes moving. Then, it slightly opened its mouth, and a large amount of water surged out, submerging itself.

From Uzumaki Kushina's perspective, however, it looked like a miniature Three-Tails, chained at the bottom of the water in the small bathtub, appearing pitiful.

"Alright, done!"

Uzumaki Kushina said with a smile, feeling a great sense of accomplishment.

Meanwhile, Sarutobi Asuma had also resealed the yin Three-Tails inside Rin Nohara. However, this time he used his self-developed Sage Power Eight Trigrams Seal, preparing for the upcoming Sage Cursed Seal.

The division and resealing were both completed smoothly, and Jiraiya and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

"Asuma, how is your cursed seal development coming along?"

Jiraiya asked as they walked out of the room.

"Almost there."

Sarutobi Asuma replied with a smile.

Indeed, it was almost there, just lacking a final element.

This was because he wanted this cursed seal to be linked to the yin Three-Tails within Rin Nohara.

Rin Nohara's chakra reserves were only average. Her advantage was her decent chakra control, not far behind Shizune and Kurenai at present.

However, compared to Kakashi and Jiraiya, she had a significant advantage.

Sarutobi Asuma's idea was to make the yin Three-Tails a chakra battery for Rin Nohara, giving her enough immense chakra to form Sage Power, or Sage Mode chakra.

That's right, he intended to use the yin Three-Tails and the Sage Cursed Seal to artificially create a state similar to his current Sage Mode.

And through this process.

Sarutobi Asuma felt that he might be able to explore a Sage Mode path unique to humans.

One that didn't rely on the Three Great Sage Regions!

Of course, this was just a preliminary idea.

For now, the priority was to solve Rin Nohara's problem.

"Rin, from now on, you need to get familiar with the Three-Tails' chakra and convert it for your own use,"

Sarutobi Asuma instructed Rin.

His Sage Power Eight Trigrams Seal contained his sage power, making it more potent than a simple Eight Trigrams Seal.

A standard Eight Trigrams Seal allowed the chakra leaked by a Tailed Beast to become the Jinchuriki's chakra.

However, Sarutobi Asuma's modified Sage Power Eight Trigrams Seal, used to seal Tailed Beasts, would forcibly extract the Tailed Beast's chakra and convert it into the Jinchuriki's chakra.

It was similar to how Naruto in the original story forcibly stole the Nine-Tails' chakra to enter Nine-Tails Chakra Mode.

And with this method, the Jinchuriki wouldn't need to guard against the Tailed Beast's malicious attacks.

This was because the malicious intent would be directly neutralized by Sarutobi Asuma's sage power.

The chakra Rin Nohara received was extremely pure and free of any hidden dangers.

"I understand!"

"I'll definitely work hard!"

Though the voice of Obara Rin was soft, it was firm.

She saw everyone's efforts and knew that if she didn't work hard, she would be letting down everyone's efforts.

And letting down Obito!

Looking at the serious Obara Rin, Sarutobi Asuma nodded with a smile. He believed that...

Then, he looked at Uzumaki Kushina again and said, "Kushina-neechan, I'll have to trouble you to guide Rin."

"After all, within Konoha, you're probably the only one with a deep understanding of Tailed Beasts."

Uzumaki Kushina readily agreed with a smile, "No problem, leave it to me!"
