"Naruto: Ice God"Chapter 180: Suppressing the Nine-Tails
"Complete Tailed Beast transformation?"
Feng Bai repeated Isobu's answer in a low voice.
"Yes. After spending this time together, you've already adapted to my chakra and met the conditions for Tailed Beast transformation. However, to achieve complete Tailed Beast transformation, you need to unlock the seal. Are you—"
Isobu had originally wanted to ask whether Feng Bai trusted him, but unexpectedly, after hearing Isobu's answer, Feng Bai immediately reached out and twisted the seal's key without a word, completely opening the prison door that separated them.
"You should have said so earlier. If you'd told me sooner, I would have unlocked the seal long ago."
Feng Bai grumbled as he acted.
Isobu was somewhat speechless.
He had originally wanted to observe Feng Bai's reaction a bit more, but now it seemed completely unnecessary.
"What a reckless jinchūriki..."
Isobu shook his head, feeling that his earlier caution had been completely pointless.
"Well then, let's go, Feng Bai."
Extending his front paw, Isobu became unusually serious.
"Yeah!"
Extending his fist to bump with Isobu, Feng Bai felt an endless stream of power flowing into his body.
"Minato-nii, now I'm the only one who can act!"
Feng Bai's sudden silence didn't slow Minato's movements. Everyone present was trying to find ways to stop the Nine-Tails' rampage.
At this moment, Kushina had completely lost consciousness, and the Tailed Beast cloak was developing toward seven tails.
Seeing this situation, Obito knew it was time to use his ultimate technique.
"Idiot Obito, save your eyesight—there will be times for you to shine in the future."
Just as Obito was about to activate his Mangekyō Sharingan and unleash Susanoo, Feng Bai suddenly spoke, interrupting his action.
"Feng Bai?"
Obito turned around to see red chakra surging wildly from Feng Bai's body.
"If you understand, then protect Naruto with Kakashi. Minato-nii, I'll create an opportunity for you to seal!"
After saying this, Feng Bai's form changed dramatically, and soon Isobu's massive body appeared before everyone.
"Damn Three-Tails, have you completely sided with the humans?!"
Inside Kushina's body, the Nine-Tails, who was desperately trying to escape from the jinchūriki's body while the seal was weakened, saw this scene and revealed a vicious expression.
However, what greeted it was Isobu's merciless rolling collision.
Isobu's appearance also attracted the attention of everyone in Konoha Village.
However, after the undead army, Susanoo, and continuous explosions, they had lost their capacity for amazement.
Everyone was fighting with all their might against Setsuna.
Thanks to the enhancement from Hashirama cells, Setsuna hadn't fallen into a disadvantage against Fugaku despite his earlier battle with Hiruzen. Both sides were evenly matched.
However, the jōnin and ANBU who appeared from time to time made him somewhat irritated.
He wasn't afraid of mosquitoes, but he couldn't handle so many of them.
Especially when Hiruzen recovered and charged back onto the battlefield with his staff, it completely shattered Setsuna's composure.
If this continued, he would definitely be the one to fall.
The Uchiha clan's honor wouldn't allow him to accept defeat.
Suddenly pushing away Fugaku in front of him, Setsuna activated his ocular jutsu, carving a huge chasm in the ground before him, then turned to leave.
"Don't think you can escape!"
Fugaku wanted to pursue, but was stopped by Hiruzen, who had jumped onto Susanoo's head.
"That's enough, Fugaku."
Looking at the jōnin who had fallen due to the battle's collateral damage, Hiruzen's heart was nearly breaking.
The village's strength, which had finally recovered, was once again dealt a blow by this attack.
"The urgent matter is over there!"
Hiruzen looked grimly toward where Isobu was fighting.
Was it the Three-Tails going berserk instead of the Nine-Tails?
What exactly was happening over there?
And where was Sakumo now?
Unable to get answers to a series of questions, Hiruzen could only choose to resolve the most pressing matter at hand.
Feng Bai was the only disciple who had inherited his teachings and was especially important to Konoha—nothing must go wrong.
"The Three-Tails? Why is it here?"
Fugaku also saw Isobu and immediately voiced his confusion.
As far as he knew, the Three-Tails should be Kirigakure's Tailed Beast.
Danzō, who had been watching the battle below, immediately rushed over with his Root subordinates the moment the Three-Tails appeared, no longer in the mood to monitor the Uchiha.
"Water Release: Iron Cannonball!"
At this moment, Feng Bai, who was being worried about by Hiruzen and others, was using his Tailed Beast form's size advantage to suppress the Nine-Tails.
Although the Nine-Tails was powerful, it hadn't completely broken through the seal and was being repeatedly hit by Isobu's jutsu, gradually showing signs of decline...
It showed signs but not completely.
The seventh tail had already fully formed.
"Damn it, Isobu, don't you have any more powerful jutsu?"
In the consciousness space, Feng Bai, who had completely become a hands-off boss, sat on Isobu's head and felt worried about the current situation.
Isobu hadn't expected the Nine-Tails to be so troublesome. Even going all out, he couldn't completely suppress it, and now he somewhat agreed with Feng Bai's earlier outrageous theory.
The Sage of Six Paths was suspiciously biased.
"I don't have any more."
Isobu carefully recalled and found that he had already used all available methods.
"This is troublesome."
Hearing Isobu say this, Feng Bai also lost his mood to slack off and hurriedly used his brain to think of a way to break the deadlock.
Wait, the Nine-Tails in front of him hadn't completely transformed into a Tailed Beast, proving that it hadn't completely broken through the seal but was only temporarily controlling Kushina's consciousness.
If he could enter Kushina's consciousness space and wake her up, letting her, as a member of the Uzumaki clan, regain control of the seal, wouldn't the current situation be easily resolved?!
After all, even in a dying state, Kushina could use Adamantine Sealing Chains to suppress the complete Nine-Tails.
The advantage was his!
"Isobu, is there a way for me to enter Kushina-nee's consciousness space?!"
Feng Bai urgently patted Isobu's head, asking.
"There is. As long as our chakra is connected, it's possible. What do you want to do?"
Isobu nodded while feeling somewhat puzzled.
"Heh heh, let me show you the ninja's strongest secret technique—Talk-no-Jutsu! I'll just need a few words to make Kurama surrender without a fight!"
Alright, diagnosis complete—his jinchūriki was having another chūnibyō episode.
Although Isobu thought this way, he still began acting according to Feng Bai's request.
Soon, the scene before Feng Bai changed.
"Three-Tails? You dare come looking for me on your own, and you brought your jinchūriki?!"
A strong hurricane nearly blew Feng Bai away. Looking around, he realized it was the Nine-Tails' breath.
"Kurama, behave yourself and don't move around."
Feng Bai pinched his nose and began searching for Kushina's figure.
