Ino Yamanaka: "I'll let you run forty-nine meters first!"
Sakura Haruno: "A fifty-meter-long sword... if it spins around in one place, I wonder how many people will die."
Tenten: "Is this... the dominant force in this world before the ninjas, before the three holy lands?"
Temari: "It even includes research and rituals...it feels too primitive."
Temari: "Or perhaps there are other forces before the three holy lands."
Tobirama Senju: "No one can give an accurate answer as to how many years have passed on this land."
Tobirama Senju: "In our world, the ruins of the Land of Whirlpools have not been explored or studied."
Tobirama Senju: "The power of the rituals may be completely severed."
Uchiha Izuna: That short sword is one of the weapons that Shinigami (Grim Reapers) tend to like.
Uchiha Izuna: But it still gave it to Naruto with the black-rimmed glasses...
Uchiha Izuna: It has a deeper meaning.
Tobirama Senju: "We don't know for now, but one thing is certain—"
Tobirama Senju: "These beings who are hailed as gods truly exist, and it's quite possible that they live in the same space."
Uchiha Izuna: Tell me something I don't know.
Tobirama Senju: "&#!!&**"
...
"Naruto... what's that?"
The big fox swallowed hard, and its tone softened considerably.
[call out--]
The fifty-meter-long blade on the hilt of the Grim Reaper slowly dissipated.
Naruto carefully put the sword hilt away.
"The Grim Reaper's weapon."
[The Big Fox: "..."]
[After giving Naruto a beautiful eye roll.]
[She pouted her little mouth.]
["oh."]
Naruto chuckled softly.
"It really is that simple."
"You could also think of it as a weapon used by an entity that exists between a chakra form and a soul form."
["Oh~" The big fox rolled its eyes again.]
However, the tone was better than before.
Naruto offered no further explanation.
He stepped forward and removed the Grim Reaper mask from the face of the already deceased Konoha Guard member.
"I should be able to use it again next time."
Having said that,
Naruto glanced at the shelf next to him, which was filled with all sorts of masks.
"Trying them all is unrealistic; many are completely unheard of... Besides, Death seems easier to deal with."
He murmured something and casually tossed the Grim Reaper mask over.
It was hung precisely on the shelf.
"Then, things will be much simpler from here on out."
The big fox also came over.
"Remember to help this fox later!"
The big fox suddenly became a little nervous.
Naruto nodded slightly.
[Then their gaze fell upon the Konoha Guard member lying on the ground.]
He took a deep breath.
[Raise your hand and begin forming a hand seal.]
The large fox stepped forward and placed a few strands of golden hair down.
"The Impure World Reincarnation Technique."
*Snap*
[A palm strikes down.]
[Whoosh whoosh whoosh—]
Soon, a large amount of white paper scraps appeared around the Konoha guard member lying on the ground.
In the blink of an eye, it covered the body of the Konoha guard member.
[And the soul of Minato Namikaze, who had been standing quietly to the side.]
It's as if I've been summoned by some kind of force.
[They began flying towards the Konoha Guard members covered in paper scraps.]
[After Minato Namikaze's soul fully entered...]
The white paper scraps that were originally covering the outside began to take shape.
[The 'staining' process begins at a speed visible to the naked eye.]
[After a few breaths.]
[Minato Namikaze's reanimated body has appeared.]
[The originally dark eye sockets were transformed after the surgery was completed.]
Dead eyes began to 'grow'.
["container."]
"The white paper scraps possess an energy similar to that of the Grim Reaper."
Naruto pondered for a moment, then clapped his hands.
[Minato Namikaze, who had been lying on the ground, suddenly awoke.]
What came into view was a handsome, blond young man.
[Notice the stubble on the boy's cheeks.]
Minato Namikaze blinked.
[Naruto?]
["Um."]
"Please cooperate."
Naruto didn't waste any words.
[Appearing in front of Minato Namikaze.]
Minato Namikaze hadn't reacted yet.
He then lost consciousness.
"The Impure World Reincarnation technique did work."
"If they are alive, even if their tailed beast is extracted, they will not escape death."
[The words fell.]
Minato Namikaze suddenly arched his back.
Naruto placed one hand on his lower abdomen.
[Then, with a sudden pull.]
The crimson chakra was immediately exposed to the air.
The big fox's eyes widened in astonishment.
[It's her genitals.]
[The amount of chakra is similar to that of one's own body.]
"How do we seal it off?"
Naruto turned to look at the giant fox.
Her eyes and brows held a gentle light.
The large fox snorted twice.
Naruto shook his head.
Then he patiently explained:
"The first type."
"Sealed within your current human form."
"Given your current state of consciousness, I can easily erase all memories from your genitals."
"This will be perfect as energy for using the Grim Reaper's Blade hilt."
The big fox was immediately tempted.
However, she blinked, not finishing her sentence, and waited for Naruto to continue.
Even though the big fox already guessed what Naruto was going to say, it still couldn't help but feel excited.
[Her eyebrows and eyes were slightly curved.]
Hmph~
No matter how strong you are, once this fox makes a move, you'll have to behave.
Naruto, however, devoted some of his attention to thinking.
Why was the seal used by Minato Namikaze to seal the genitals of the Great Fox a Four Symbols Seal?
Logically, when a corpse demon is sealed, it means sacrificing its own soul to the Grim Reaper.
Death helped to capture the other person's soul.
Then, the Corpse Demon Seal was performed; the Corpse Demon Seal is also known as a sealing technique.
Death is a man of principle.
[He didn't eat it himself.]
Instead, following the ritual of the spell, the captured soul is sealed within the caster's body.
Of course.
In the end, they all went into the belly of Death together...
Therefore, it can be argued that Death didn't need to go to such lengths; after all, once sealed within the caster's body, it would ultimately end up inside the caster's own stomach.
Everyone: "..."
Don't say it.
That actually makes a lot of sense!
As expected, Naruto with black frames has a different perspective on things.
...
One thing is certain.
[To be swallowed by Death will neither cause one to lose consciousness nor fall into a deep sleep.]
Otherwise, the Four Symbols Seal wouldn't be on Minato Namikaze's resurrected body.
Therefore, erasing memories is very necessary.
"The second option."
"Continue to seal it within my body, so you can completely absorb it."
"I will transform the entire genitals of your body into chakra."
"What about the third one?" The big fox blinked, a gesture that, I don't know where it picked up from, was actually kind of cute.
Naruto touched his nose.
"There's also a third option."
