Meanwhile, on the other side—
Minato Namikaze finally snapped out of his shock.
Before departing, Hiruzen Sarutobi had provided him with intelligence on Uchiha Seimei, including details of a devastatingly powerful jutsu. Initially, Minato thought the report might have been exaggerated.
But now, after witnessing Seimei's "Wind Style: Rasenshuriken" and the miserable state of the Six-Tails after the attack, he realized the information not only hadn't been exaggerated but had actually underestimated Seimei's abilities.
At this moment, Minato finally understood the extent of Seimei's talent. With his sharp eye, it didn't take long for him to notice that the foundation of the "Wind Style: Rasenshuriken" was the "Rasengan."
When he first learned that Seimei could use the "Rasengan" and saw him perform it once, Minato had already thought Seimei was talented. However, at the time, he assumed Seimei had likely seen either himself or Jiraiya perform the jutsu and drawn inspiration from it to develop his own version.
This level of imitation and innovation, while impressive, was still within an acceptable range.
After all, the most critical factor in creating a jutsu is the idea itself—without inspiration, nothing can be achieved.
But now, Seimei had gone a step further by advancing the Rasengan into the "Wind Style: Rasenshuriken." This wasn't something that could simply be dismissed as "not bad." Even if Seimei had borrowed some inspiration, what he had achieved was something neither Minato nor his teacher Jiraiya had managed to do yet.
This alone spoke volumes about his extraordinary talent.
Then there was his "Wind Style: Wings of Wind." This flying jutsu had already made a name for itself on the battlefield, and it was undoubtedly another creation of Seimei's.
Not to mention, Minato had just witnessed a protective jutsu from Seimei that seemed inspired by a Tailed Beast's cloak.
These achievements were beyond what could be described as genius—they were monstrous.
However, Minato couldn't help but feel troubled when he thought about the strained relationship between the Hidden Leaf Village and the Uchiha clan.
Although he didn't know that Danzo and the Root division had already attempted to assassinate Seimei multiple times, as the Hokage's chosen successor, Minato had access to high-level intelligence that far surpassed that of ordinary Jonin.
In the reports submitted by Shikaku Nara, Minato had noticed certain suspicious details—someone seemed to be deliberately targeting Uchiha Seimei.
This led him to think of the ongoing tensions between the village and the Uchiha clan. It was evident that some within the village didn't want the Uchiha to produce not just one, but two prodigies.
Minato couldn't help but think of another Uchiha genius, someone who was as renowned as Seimei.
But targeting these talents would only deepen the animosity between the two sides. What was the point of such actions?
In Minato's view, the village should focus on embracing these geniuses and using them as bridges to influence their clan. Over ten or twenty years, this could gradually dissolve the mistrust and friction between the village and the Uchiha.
Sigh…
Minato exhaled softly, shaking his head to clear his thoughts. At this moment, he was not yet in a position to address these issues.
Turning his attention back to the battlefield, he focused on the Six-Tails.
Initially, Minato had planned to join forces with Seimei to weaken the beast before using his full power to seal it.
But now, this seemed unnecessary.
Seimei's earlier attack had struck a critical blow.
The Six-Tails was not only writhing in pain but its form was becoming increasingly unstable. Its body appeared to be melting, with large amounts of mucus falling from its surface, causing its form to shrink visibly.
At this point, a properly executed sealing technique should suffice to subdue the beast.
Without hesitation, Minato threw two kunai marked with the Flying Thunder God technique toward the left and right sides of the Six-Tails.
He then formed a hand seal and performed the Shadow Clone Jutsu.
Poof!
With a puff of chakra smoke, three shadow clones appeared around Minato. Without needing further instruction, the clones immediately used the Flying Thunder God Technique to position themselves at the left, right, and front of the Six-Tails.
Unbeknownst to the beast, Minato had already placed a kunai bearing the Flying Thunder God seal in front of it earlier.
Now, including himself and his clones, Minato had perfectly encircled the Six-Tails.
Sensing danger, the Six-Tails swung its tails in an attempt to crush its attackers.
But it was too slow.
Before its tails could land, Minato and his clones had already completed their hand seals, activating a sealing technique.
Clink! Clink!
The sound of chains echoed as eight chakra chains, inscribed with sealing formulas, shot out from the hands of Minato and his clones.
Six of these chains wrapped around the Six-Tails' tails, halting its movements and suppressing its chakra. The remaining two chains coiled around its neck and abdomen, immobilizing the beast completely.
Seeing this, Seimei immediately recognized the sealing technique. It was identical to the one used earlier by the other four sealing squad members.
Judging by its form, the jutsu was clearly inspired by the Uzumaki clan's signature sealing technique, "Adamantine Sealing Chains." Given Uzumaki Kushina's identity and Minato's aptitude in sealing arts, it wouldn't be surprising if this technique was a modified version created by Minato himself.
The effect was almost identical to the original "Adamantine Sealing Chains," capable of directly suppressing a Tailed Beast and rendering it powerless.
Unfortunately, sealing techniques relied more on knowledge than skill. Even with the Sharingan, such jutsu couldn't simply be copied. Otherwise, possessing this technique would make dealing with Tailed Beasts significantly easier.
As Seimei pondered, the Six-Tails suddenly realized its grim fate and began to struggle desperately.
It had just escaped from captivity and had no desire to be imprisoned again so soon.
ROAR!
The beast's furious roar echoed as violent chakra gathered around its body, straining the eight chains to their limits. The sealing formulas flickered erratically, as if they were on the verge of breaking.
"Seimei!"
Below, Minato called out, seemingly intending to issue instructions.
However, before he could finish, Seimei flew to the top of the Six-Tails' head.
Ignoring the beast's enraged glare, Seimei quickly formed hand seals and placed a palm on the Six-Tails' body.
"It all comes down to this," he murmured with a solemn expression.
In the next instant, he activated the "Chakra Absorption Jutsu."
The dense, heavy chakra unique to Tailed Beasts began to flow into Seimei's body.
A violent wave of will struck his mind like a hammer, leaving him momentarily dazed.
Fortunately, having experienced this during his earlier attempt to control the Six-Tails with his Sharingan, Seimei quickly regained his composure.
Ignoring Minato's astonished expression, Seimei focused entirely on absorbing and converting the Six-Tails' chakra.
To his relief, his Chakra Absorption Jutsu, even at level 6, was capable of absorbing a Tailed Beast's chakra.
However, there were significant challenges.
First, the process of converting the chakra came with the constant assault of the Tailed Beast's violent will. Unlike human chakra, which carried minimal mental imprints and could be easily neutralized by the jutsu, the Tailed Beast's chakra was imbued with its essence and intent, making it much harder to handle.
Fortunately, Seimei saw this as an opportunity. By refining the technique with this experience, he believed he could perfect it and eliminate such drawbacks upon advancing it to level 7.
Another issue was the reduced efficiency of chakra absorption. Normally, he could absorb 2,000 units of chakra per second from other ninjas, but with the Six-Tails, this rate had dropped to just 500 units per second.
Although this wasn't unbearably slow, it was far from satisfactory, and Seimei resolved to improve this aspect as well.
As for the conversion efficiency, it remained high. While it dropped slightly from 100% to 90%, the difference was negligible, likely due to the similar energy nature of Tailed Beast and human chakra.
Meanwhile, the Six-Tails was utterly enraged. Already weakened by the sealing technique, it now found its remaining chakra being devoured by this "vampire" before it could even gather enough energy to launch its ultimate attack, the Tailed Beast Bomb.
