Gaara rushed over as soon as he hung up the phone, as if he was worried that his Cult Leader would run away the next second.
As for having the Biju extracted...
If Naruto hadn't brought it up, Gaara might've completely forgotten he was still Sunagakure's Ichibi's Jinchuriki.
And ever since the Chunin Exam a few years ago, the monster in his body seemed to have been scared away by Naruto.
So much so that it hadn't caused any trouble since.
When Gaara arrived, Naruto explained everything. He also told him that Akatsuki was going to capture all the Biju.
After hearing this, Gaara was stunned for a long time. After ten minutes, he spoke with a strange expression.
"I see."
"So this Akatsuki really wants to prevent our Cult Mechanicus from gaining independence!"
"Damn them!"
For a moment, Naruto couldn't tell which side was supposed to be 'good' and 'evil'.
"Cult Leader."
"Go ahead."
"I've had a new body ready for ages."
For Gaara, the Biju inside him was nothing but a nuisance, as it also affected his mechanical modifications.
If it weren't for this reason, he would've 'upgraded' his body long ago.
But inside the sealed space, Shukaku was furious...
'What the hell!'
'Before, this stinky fox's Jinchuriki not only bullied me, but also led the brat astray and made him obsessed over self-modification.'
Shukaku felt that he had been tolerant enough.
Now, they are actually thinking about taking him away to carry out the Biju Capture Plan?!
'Damn it!'
'Isn't this bullying an honest Biju like me?!'
Shukaku originally didn't want to see the stinky fox, but now that he heard that he was about to be forcibly extracted, he had no choice but to jump out.
Before Gaara could finish his words, the Biju's Chakra in his body suddenly erupted violently.
His body gradually transformed into a Biju.
Then, Gaara's vision went dark, and his body had been taken away by Shukaku.
In the blink of an eye, Shukaku's body surged from the ground and he roared angrily at the three people on the ground.
"Damn fox!!"
"You're going too far this time!!"
It was already miserable for him to be sealed. Now that he finally got used to living in a place, they wanted to extract him and sealed him into a statue?
If Shukaku were more cultured, he would probably have recited a line to Kurama on the spot: "We are of the same root, why are we so eager to harm each other?"
However, in Naruto's sealed space, Kurama remained blissfully unaware.
At this moment, there was a big hot pot in front of him. While he was picking up meat with chopsticks in one hand, he was also using Chakra to control the turning of pages of the novel.
From time to time, his bloated belly jiggled as he let out earth-shaking burps.
He doesn't look like an 'Immortal Emperor' at all, and there's no trace of him practicing in seclusion.
If someone who didn't know saw it, they would think it was a pig demon having a meal here.
"Shukaku."
"Calm down first."
To solidify his position in Akatsuki, Naruto plans to take only some of Ichibi's Chakra to fool his senior brother, while the real Shukaku could stay right where he was.
So what Shukaku was worried about would never happen.
"Do you think I'm a fool!?"
"Humans always go back on their word!"
Shukaku refused to believe in Naruto's nonsense, and while the Kyubi's Jinchuriki was not able to react, he formed hand seals and his consciousness instantly invaded Naruto's consciousness.
The next second, Naruto's consciousness became blurred, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he had appeared in the sealed space.
But the one in front of him was not Kurama, but Shukaku who was as big as a hill.
"Little brat!"
"This is a technique I've researched for years!"
"As long as I enter your consciousness, I can that stinky fox away!"
The Sealing Technique that Shukaku mentioned was essentially hijacking the existing Biju Seal and adding an extra layer of isolation.
As long as he is successful, Kurama would be plunged into eternal darkness, severing Naruto's connection to him.
By then, it will be easy for him to deal with this little Kyubi's Jinchuriki.
"You... what are you doing?"
Naruto had a strange expression on his face. He stared blankly at Shukaku, which was as big as a hill in front of him. He really couldn't understand why this tanuki would do such a thing.
'Did he not realize...'
'In this sealed space, I was basically a God?'
Not to mention there is also the Immortal Emperor Kurama here.
"Hahahahaha!"
"Are you scared?"
"Little brat! You and that stinky fox are finished!"
Shukaku raised his head and laughed, but as the laughter went on, he suddenly realized something was off.
"Wait…!"
"What the hell is up with your sealed space!?"
Just now, Shukaku was surrounded by joy because his technique was successful. But now, as he casually glanced around, he found that the sealed space of the Kyubi's Jinchuriki was very strange.
Not only does this place have various environments like the outside world, such as deserts, snow, forests, plains, etc., but there are also a large number of animals.
Except that everything here is a little square, everything else is no different from the outside world.
'What the hell!'
'What kind of seal space is this?!'
In a blink of an eye, he saw an obese orange-furred 'pig' with a huge pot in front of him and a piece of meat in his hand near his mouth.
Kurama and Shukaku looked at each other, and Naruto suddenly realized something and felt embarrassed for the big fox.
"PFFT… HAHAHAHAHA!"
"You stinky fox...how did you...how did you get so fat?"
When Shukaku recognized that the 'pig' in front of him was Kurama, he stopped casting the technique, covered his stomach and let out a thunderous laugh.
In the sealed space, Kurama opened his mouth, and the hand holding the chopsticks trembled like a Parkinson's patient. Suddenly, the chopsticks clattered to the ground.
The moment he saw Shukaku, Kurama's mind went blank. Apart from the word 'fat', he could no longer hear anything else.
Boom…
Following a loud explosion, the sealed space began to tremble violently.
"NARUTO!!"
"KILL IT!!"
"KILL IT RIGHT NOW!!!"
"ROOOOAR…"
The Chakra all over the fat Kurama was burning like flames, and the orange-red Chakra turned black and red.
Seeing his 'fox spirit' so angry, Naruto waved his right hand lightly, and the next second, the Sword of the Cosmos flew from the corner of the sealed space.
Then, Naruto grabbed the sword and swung it casually in the direction of the still laughing Shukaku.
A spatial fluctuation instantly appeared in the sealed space, and Shukaku, who sensed it, stopped laughing abruptly.
The entire Biju was about to jump up from the ground.
Because he found that the space suddenly changed, and the sun, moon and stars filled his sight...
There were also countless black threads attacking him.
"WHAT IS THIS?!"
"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!"
"GYAAAAAH…!!"
Shukaku had a vague feeling that this thing could really kill a Biju like him if they were in the outside world.
The kind that can't be resurrected!
He even forgot that he had only used his consciousness to sink into Kurama's sealed space, and he whimpered in fear like a child.
This situation did not last long. Shukaku, who was still mocking Kurama in the previous second, had his consciousness destroyed in the next second.
Several minutes passed in the sealed space, but to the outside world, only a few seconds had passed.
Everyone was still shocked by Shukaku's appearance, but Sasori suddenly noticed that the Chakra around him suddenly became turbulent.
The strong impact caused the two to fly backwards.
As the smoke and dust dissipated, a hundred-meter-tall black fox appeared where Naruto had originally stood. It looked at Shukaku and roared.
"ROOOOOOOAR…"
At this moment, Kurama's voice resounded throughout the world.
