Chapter 1425: How about I help you contact Minato?
Ninja World.
On a patch of grassland within Grass City, between the Land of Earth and the Land of Fire.
Otsutsuki Hagoromo, Otsutsuki Hamura, and Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu, who was possessing an artificial human, stood together, looking at the enormous Box of Paradise before them.
As for Little Kaguya, she had already entered Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu's body.
She was preparing to merge with the main body consciousness upon its descent, giving it her memory.
"Let's begin."
Otsutsuki Hagoromo turned his head and said in a deep voice to this suddenly appearing sister:
"I have already reported to Lord Imu, so there is no need for concern."
"Okay!"
The dark-skinned Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu suppressed her excited mood and nodded heavily.
Finally, she could see mama, her real mama!
At this moment, her eyes had actually changed from the originally pale Byakugan to the purple Rinnegan.
This was the result of Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu spending several days thoroughly adapting to the body.
"Open!"
Otsutsuki Hagoromo no longer hesitated, immediately reaching out and pointing at the 'Box of Paradise'.
[BOOM————]
The next moment, the 'Angry Oni Face' facing the three of them immediately opened its gaping maw.
The 'White Ten-Tails' sealed inside sensed the commotion and instantly transformed into surging Chakra, ready to rush out.
"Summoning Technique. Gedō Mazō!"
The black-skinned, silver-haired Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu clapped her hands together in front of her.
With a loud roar from her mouth, surging Chakra was released from her body.
[RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE————]
In an instant, the grassland trembled, rising and breaking apart.
The colossus that Madara Uchiha had placed within the border of the Land of Iron was instantly summoned by her.
The Gedō Mazō rose from the ground, breaking through the soil, and stood behind the three individuals with extremely violent momentum.
At the same time.
Ten-Tails Chakra, like a scarlet torrent, continuously poured out from the 'Angry Oni Face' of the 'Box of Paradise'.
And at an extremely fast speed in mid-air, it gathered into a completely snow-white body and a Rinne Sharingan.
"Roar————————"
As soon as this 'White Ten-Tails' formed, it let out a skyward roar filled with anger.
It immediately stirred up terrifying strong winds and vicious waves on the spot, pushing away the surrounding grass and land.
However, such a fierce aura still could not shake the three people standing in front of it, nor the even larger Gedō Mazō behind them.
"Demonic Statue Chains!"
Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu activated the second technique with a cold expression.
The next moment.
The Gedō Mazō opened its large mouth, emitting red light from within, and spat out metal chains wrapped in faint purple light.
In the blink of an eye, it tightly bound the 'White Ten-Tails', which had just finished its yell, and continuously pulled it towards itself.
The latter struggled wildly, roaring repeatedly, but found it difficult to break free.
It even tried to condense a Truth-Seeking Ball, but discovered that under the interference of these chains, its Chakra was completely out of its control.
The Otsutsuki Clan had been playing with the Ten-Tails for who knows how many years; they wouldn't give them any room to resist.
In a moment, no matter how unwilling the 'White Ten-Tails' was.
It could only turn back into Chakra and be absorbed into the Gedō Mazō's mouth.
Seeing this, Otsutsuki Hagoromo shrunk the 'Box of Paradise' and sent it back to the Pure Land Ninja Sect.
Otsutsuki Hamura remained a spectator throughout the process, or rather, his mission was for later.
It was to monitor the gathering process of the Chakra through his Byakugan, preventing Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu from excessive absorption.
[SWISH!]
At this moment, Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu disappeared from the original spot.
The next moment.
She appeared in the air, level with the Gedō Mazō, and simultaneously formally formed Hand Seals in front of her hands.
"Six Paths — Ten-Tails Coffin Seal!"
As soon as the words fell, the thousand-meter-tall Gedō Mazō, whose body originally looked incredibly tough, actually began to show signs of softening.
It was twisting itself at a speed visible to the naked eye, while also extending a drill-like spiral long spike, which continuously entered Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu's chest.
Moreover, this process was astonishingly fast.
Such a colossus was absorbed by her in just over ten seconds.
At this time, Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu's body also began to twist and rotate along with it.
Until it completely turned into a white ball several meters high.
This scene made Otsutsuki Hamura and Otsutsuki Hagoromo below feel relieved.
Because this represented that everything was going smoothly.
[CRACK!]
As expected, cracks began to appear on the surface of the white ball.
As more and more cracks appeared, it finally shattered in the air with a 'pop' sound.
Countless pure white eggshells turned into specks of light and scattered in the sky.
But in the eyes of Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura, there was only that white figure.
It was Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu, who had become the 'Ten-Tails Jinchuriki'.
The present her had fair skin, double horns on her head, her Rinnegan emitted a faint purple light, and eight dark Truth-Seeking Balls floated behind her.
"Such powerful strength..."
Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu felt the seemingly endless Chakra inside the body.
She inexplicably had an idea that she was omnipotent.
At the same time, her desire was rapidly amplifying, and she began to think about the necessity of awakening mama.
"Zetsu, clear your mind!"
Suddenly, a sharp roar echoed in her mind.
This was like a basin of cold water, extinguishing all her wild thoughts.
"That was close, I almost had my will controlled by the Ten-Tails..."
Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu immediately felt a lingering fear, and at the same time, she apologized guiltily to Little Kaguya inside her body: "I'm sorry, mama, I just..."
"No need to say more, immediately proceed to the next stage!" Little Kaguya's voice rang out again.
"Okay, okay."
Otsutsuki Hane Zetsu breathed a sigh of relief seeing that she wasn't scolded.
She looked down at Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura on the ground.
Then she looked up and quickly flew towards the bright moon in the night sky.
"Prepare."
Otsutsuki Hagoromo reminded his brother.
"Okay."
Otsutsuki Hamura nodded and immediately transformed his Byakugan into a Tenseigan.
Within Uzumaki Island.
Kushina ultimately led Nagato silently into the depths of the deserted forest.
"Yo, kid, you'd better keep your hand honest, don't let me see it near your pocket again~"
Suddenly, a voice full of mockery sounded in the clearing.
This caused Nagato's expression to freeze, as he was just about to quietly contact the Den Den Mushi in his pocket.
"Show yourself, and make it understand why you ambushed us!" Kushina shouted, blocking Nagato.
The next second.
'Swish swish swish swish' rang out continuously.
Ibara, Shura, Suzuka, and Mez quickly appeared in the four directions: front, back, left, and right.
"It's them?!"
Kushina and Nagato's pupils shrank.
Both of them had watched the live broadcast of the Top 100 Competition, so they naturally recognized their face.
"You are people from the Imperial Arms World, why are you attacking us?"
Kushina focused most of her attention on Ibara.
However, to her question, the first to answer was not Ibara, but Mez.
"For revenge! Revenge for killing one's father!"
The hatred and killing intent filling the girl's voice made Kushina frown, and at the same time, she felt very doubtful.
"I don't remember killing anyone from the Imperial Arms World..."
Mez said with anger: "It was your husband, Minato Namikaze, who killed my father, Gozuchi of Cipher Pol No. 8!"
Kushina was stunned, then said hesitantly: "Sorry, Minato never mentioned these things to me, so I don't understand who the Gozuchi you mentioned is, or when he was killed by him..."
After all, Minato Namikaze, as a ninja, had killed many people.
It was impossible for him to remember everyone's name, nor would he specifically tell his wife about it after returning home.
"Hahahaha, a friendly reminder, when the World Government invaded your Ninja World, the location was that Loulan."
Shura suddenly laughed loudly. After speaking, he brazenly sized up Kushina from head to toe, grinning lewdly.
"Not bad, not bad, she's a red-haired beauty too~"
His attitude made Nagato furious, clenching his fist tightly.
Although Kushina also showed disgust on her face, she was still thinking about what he said.
She remembered a little.
Minato had indeed carried out a mission to Loulan before to conduct detection, and he also brought back Queen Sara of Loulan.
It should have been during that time that he had a conflict with the World Government and killed this girl's father during the process.
This gave Kushina a headache; after all, it was reasonable for the other party to seek revenge for her father, but...
"If that's the case, then go find Minato; we didn't kill your father."
Kushina suddenly smiled and teased Mez.
"Can't find him? How about I help you contact him, and have him rush over immediately to talk to you?"
"Don't worry, he's very fast. Making a Den Den Mushi call shouldn't take more than a few minutes!"
Instantly, Ibara, Shura, Mez, and Suzuka's expressions froze.
The atmosphere in the dark forest became awkward...
