Inside the huge cage, the Ten-Tails seemed to be dozing off. Just getting close to take a look gave Naruto the creeps.
As the Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tailed Fox, he could better sense the terrifying Chakra Reserves Amount contained within this tailed beast.
"Can you believe this is just its juvenile form!"
"Yeah, later we'll absorb the [Chakra] inside it together. Before Isshiki Ōtsutsuki arrives, we should absorb as much as we can."
Seeing this, Naruto nodded in agreement. Their eyes met, and they started making [Hand Seals] in perfect sync. As their hands reached the Ten-Tails' gray skin and finally made full contact.
The ashen-colored flesh clung to their fair arms. Their arms, one on the left and one on the right, were tightly connected to the Ten-Tails' body. A vast amount of [Chakra] began to pour into their bodies through their arms.
"Ah!"
Flooded with such a large amount of [Chakra], they couldn't help crying out in shock. Sasuke frowned tightly, and big drops of sweat began to roll down his forehead. In just an instant, a wave of negative emotions rushed into his mind.
Darkness and meanness. Feeling the negative impact of these emotions, Sasuke almost threw up.
"Damn it, I didn't expect receiving this [Chakra] to be so uncomfortable!"
Seeing Sasuke's pale face, Naruto was very worried. He supported Sasuke's tottering body with his left arm. A bone-chilling coldness hit him, and Naruto was clearly panicked by what he saw.
"Hey, Sasuke, are you okay? If you can't hold on, don't force yourself. Let me do it!"
Hearing Naruto's words and seeing his response, Sasuke noticed that Naruto only seemed a little uncomfortable and his expression was normal. He even had the time to care about himself during this time! A sense of indignation welled up in his heart.
"Humph, if I don't force myself and leave it to you, brat, I really can't rest easy!"
"I'm just trying to help... Why are you being so grumpy..."
??o·(? ??????????? )?o·?
Naruto didn't dare say a word when he saw Sasuke about to explode. He just concentrated on absorbing the [Chakra] inside the Ten-Tails while supporting Sasuke and adjusting his position so that Sasuke could lean more comfortably in his arms...
His wandering eyes always fell on Sasuke. This guy, stubborn as a mule, just kept pushing himself. He was worried that Sasuke's body would break down before they could finish absorbing the [Chakra].
..........
Sasuke wasn't completely confident about becoming the Jinchūriki of the Ten-Tails. After all, in the past life, only Madara Uchiha and Obito had fully become Jinchūriki of the Ten-Tails.
Both of them combined Yin and Yang Release and possessed Yin and Yang [Chakra], which was completely different from his current situation. Even though he was the reincarnation of Indra, he only had Yin [Chakra]!
Now that both Yin and Yang [Chakra] were entering his body, and the Yang [Chakra] couldn't be fully absorbed, the Yin [Chakra] accumulated in his body, making him colder and colder.
"...."
"Are you really not feeling anything at all?"
In just a short while, he could clearly feel a large amount of Yin [Chakra] pouring into his body. He felt as if he was in an ice cellar, and the air he exhaled turned into a pale, cold mist.
Seeing that Sasuke was clearly not feeling well, Naruto was very worried. But he didn't know what was wrong and could only answer truthfully.
"Well, I'm not totally numb. I always feel warm all over. As time goes by, I can clearly feel this warm feeling gradually getting hotter. Maybe it's because I'm the Jinchūriki (a person who hosts a tailed beast) of the Nine - Tailed Fox, so I'm not that resistant to the power of the Ten - Tails. But you're as cold as an ice cube right now. Why don't you stop and take a break first?"
Sasuke gritted his teeth and thought that what Naruto said might be true. But what should he do now?
If things went on like this, he'd collapse before they could even become the Jinchūriki (a person who hosts a tailed beast) of the Ten - Tails!
"No, I can't. This is the only way I can think of for us to defeat Isshiki Ōtsutsuki safely. I must hold on!"
What a joke! He was reborn. He didn't want to follow his past - life's useless path, just watching Naruto use the Baryon Mode and eventually lose Kurama. So he steeled himself, ignoring his physical discomfort and started desperately absorbing Chakra.
Time waits for no one. If he dragged it out any longer, Isshiki Ōtsutsuki might catch up!
"....."
Staring at Sasuke's stubborn little face, Naruto let out a long sigh in his heart. Once this guy made up his mind, not even ten horses could pull him back. But he knew very little about either the Ten - Tails or the Ōtsutsuki clan. Helplessly, he could only ask someone who knew the inside story first.
"Kurama, Kurama!"
"Hey, Naruto, you're so noisy. Don't shout in front of me. You're disturbing my sleep."
"What? It's an emergency! Stop sleeping and think of a way now!"
The Nine - Tailed Fox yawned widely and comfortably, then lazily twitched his ears and spoke while lying there looking quite content.
"Humph, that brat made this decision himself, and he should bear whatever the outcome is. I don't have the time to take care of him!"
After saying that, he yawned again, swaying his nine tails, and comfortably turned over, ignoring Naruto.
Naruto pleaded desperately, "Kurama, don't talk nonsense. Please, think of a way quickly. If this goes on like this, Sasuke will turn into an ice sculpture before long!"
Kurama grumbled impatiently, "Sasuke, Sasuke. Can you change the name you call every day? Aren't you tired of shouting? I'm already bored of hearing it!"
