Chapter 178 - Let Kushina Be The Jinchuriki?

"How about you become my Jinchuriki? I cooperated with Asura back then. Asura was already pretty strong at that time, but I still provided him with considerable help. As long as we cooperate properly, you might even reach the level of the Sage of Six Paths back then." Nine-Tails quickly coaxed him.

As long as Kazuki became it's Jinchuriki, it would make him collect the Chakra of the other tailed beasts. It's better to sacrifice a friend than oneself.

As long as Kazuki gathers the power of the nine tailed beasts, confronting Madara should be effortless.

It, Nine-Tails, was not a burden.

"Your strength is quite good, but I myself have other methods to enhance my power." Kazuki shook his head slightly.

"This isn't a question of danger, it's just that your boost to me isn't significant. Using your power to study Ten-Tails' power is fine, but I don't like having any sentient beings inside my body. That applies to you, and it applies to Ten-Tails as well."

"Is that so?" Kurama breathed a sigh of relief.

If that was the reason, it, Kurama, could accept it.

This way, it wouldn't have to worry about Kazuki wanting to synthesize Ten-Tails and then feeding it to it.

"As for Kushina, I haven't decided whether to let her become a Jinchuriki. I just hope that if she does become the Jinchuriki, you can cooperate well with her." Kazuki then instructed Kurama.

"If it's Kushina , I have no objections. But you need to resolve Madara's problem quickly, and you also need to help me with that bastard Madara's contract and ocular power." Kurama quickly promised Kazuki.

It still needed Kazuki's protection, so what if it had to cooperate well with Kushina?

It had to give some respect to the Rinnegan, and besides, it had a good impression of Kazuki.

"I temporarily cannot help you resolve the contract between you and Madara. As for Madara's ocular power within your body, I can indeed break it, but I don't plan to do so for now."

"If I break it, Madara will know that you are no longer under his control. You are absolutely safe inside Grandma Mito's body." Kazuki looked at Kurama, hinting at something.

Kurama fell silent. Even Kazuki couldn't resolve the contract?

Damn Madara!

To think that even Kazuki, who has awakened the Rinnegan, cannot resolve it. What kind of trump card did Madara leave on it?

If this matter isn't resolved soon, it might not have much to look forward to in this life.

However, just as Kazuki said, it could ensure its safety within Mito's body, and it indeed couldn't let Madara know much about Kazuki. Kazuki is only 12 years old now, he must be given time to grow.

Even old man Hagoromo needs time to grow.

"Ah, yes, we definitely can't let Madara know." Kurama quickly agreed with Kazuki's words.

"That guy will do anything. You need to be careful of Madara outside."

"Then, goodbye. Nine-Tails." Kazuki's figure quickly disappeared.

"What Nine-Tails? I have a name too. My name is Kurama." Kurama muttered, but his heart remained restless for a long time.

Madara had awakened the Rinnegan and even summoned the Gedo statue. Given Madara's ambition, he is very likely to revive Ten-Tails. He is simply too dangerous.

Kurama?

Mito had been paying attention to the conversation between Kazuki and Kurama. It wasn't that she didn't trust Kazuki, but rather that she passively heard the information.

Mito had long known about the contract on Kurama, but she hadn't noticed that Kurama also had Madara's ocular power on him.

After all, she wasn't telepathically connected with Kurama. She was merely forcefully using Kurama's power and hadn't noticed that ocular power.

However, something else particularly concerned Mito. Kazuki had already awakened the Rinnegan. Did this mean he had become the second Sage of Six Paths?

No, Madara might have also awakened the Rinnegan, which means Kazuki is the third.

And the so-called Ten-Tails greatly concerned Mito.

She knew how strong Kurama was, but Ten-Tails was the progenitor of the nine tailed beasts, so she couldn't help but be concerned.

This level of power was not something an ordinary person could contend with.

Mito then recalled the legends she heard when she was young in the Uzumaki clan, how the Sage of Six Paths was revered by countless people precisely because he sealed an ancient demonic beast.

If there were no surprises, that being was probably Ten-Tails. That was a powerful being that even the Sage of Six Paths found troublesome.

This time, knowing Kurama's name was good news.

And as for Kushina, Kurama was actually willing to cooperate with her. If Kushina could perfectly use Kurama's power, her future strength might even surpass her own.

After all, she only forcefully used Kurama's power, while Kushina could perfectly cooperate with Kurama, which could further enhance Kushina's strength.

With Kazuki's presence, Mito was no longer worried that Kurama would cause any trouble.

The only concern was Madara, but Madara was quite old now. Even if he found a successor in the future, they probably wouldn't be able to harm Kushina under Kazuki's protection.

Looking at it this way, it seems Kushina is more suitable to become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

"Kurama won't cause any more trouble, Grandma Mito, you can rest assured." After coming out, Kazuki said to Mito.

He hadn't intended to hide his conversation with Kurama from Mito, as it was Mito's mental space, and it would be difficult to hide anything from her.

"Mm, I do feel much more relaxed." Mito showed a look of relief.

"Child, you don't need to be sad. The reason I am still alive is simply to protect Konoha, keep Kurama in check, and see the next generation of the village."

"Now that you all have grown up, I believe you can protect Konoha."

"Now, there isn't much motivation to live anymore. For old folks like us who came from the Sengoku era, being able to live until now is actually quite rare and valuable."

"Compared to others, I am already very happy."

"I understand." Kazuki nodded slightly.

"However, as your junior, I still hope you can live a little longer. After all, we all treat you like our own grandmother."

"I know." Mito looked at Kazuki with eyes full of relief.

At least Kazuki was a child who valued relationships and was definitely not a heartless person.
