Naruto: I'm Nine-Tails and My Host is Kushina-Chapter 145

Along the way, the Third Raikage moved forward, anticipation flickering in his eyes.

"Konoha shinobi?"

"Tch. I hope not."

On the battlefield, Kurama clashed fiercely with the Two-Tails' Jinchūriki, Yugito Nii. The fight was nothing short of a spectacle, and the ANBU observing from a distance were enthralled.

"So this is the strength of Lord Kurama..."

For years, Kurama's power had been the stuff of legends. But now, they were witnessing it firsthand.

The savage, relentless attacks of Yugito, enhanced by the Two-Tails' chakra, were being dismantled effortlessly by Senhaku. The ANBU watching knew that if they were in her place, they'd already be dead.

Jinchūriki were supposed to be feared—monstrous beings wielding immense power. Yet, despite Yugito's strength, she was losing. And badly.

"No... the real monster here is Lord Kurama."

The realization sank in. They had followed Kurama to the Land of Lightning, and they were witnessing something monumental.

Now, they understood why Danzo treated Kurama with such cautious respect.

"What's wrong? You look like you're struggling already," Kurama taunted, a smirk tugging at his lips. "I haven't even tried yet. If you have something better, bring it out."

"Tch...! Bastard..."

Yugito snarled. She had already unleashed her strongest attack, yet Kurama had crushed it like it was nothing.

This wasn't just strength. This was dominance.

She had never encountered an opponent like him before.

Her heart pounded. Every jutsu she threw at him was useless.

"Shit..."

Biting her lip, she considered her options.

Delaying. That was her best bet. If she could hold him off long enough, the Raikage would arrive. When that happened, these Konoha shinobi would be wiped out.

There was another option. One she despised.

She could fully transform.

But handing over her body to the Two-Tails meant losing herself. She'd become nothing more than a rampaging beast.

Not yet. Not unless it was absolutely necessary.

"Two-Tails... give me your power," she murmured within her mind.

"Tch. You want my power? Foolish human. That's impossible."

Matatabi's voice was sharp and laced with disdain.

The Tailed Beasts had their pride.

More importantly, Matatabi sensed something disturbing about Kurama. Something familiar.

For a moment, it couldn't place it.

How strange...

Yugito's hesitation didn't go unnoticed.

Kurama grinned.

A predator watching its prey flounder.

"If you won't come to me, then I'll just go to you."

A massive, dark-red chakra arm lashed out at her with terrifying speed.

The raw power behind it made Yugito's blood run cold.

"What... kind of chakra is this?!"

The arm slammed into the earth, sending a shockwave that uprooted trees and shattered boulders. Yugito barely managed to evade, but the aftershock hurled her into a tree.

"Tch. This is bad..."

Inside her, Matatabi suddenly stirred.

"Kurama...!"

The realization hit the Two-Tails like a ton of bricks.

"Kurama? What are you talking about?" Yugito asked, gritting her teeth.

"You idiot! That man—he's the Nine-Tails!"

Yugito's eyes widened in shock.

Nine-Tails?

The most powerful of the Tailed Beasts?

She looked at Kurama again, realization sinking in.

"Second brother... you only figured it out now?" Kurama sneered, reading her thoughts.

As a fellow Tailed Beast, he had no trouble hearing Matatabi's voice.

"You're slower than I remember."

Matatabi bristled. The Tailed Beasts were created together by the Sage of Six Paths. To be ranked by tail number was ridiculous.

"Tch. Nine-Tails... I never expected you to live like this."

The hatred between shinobi and the Tailed Beasts ran deep. Yet, here was Kurama, in human form, fighting alongside them.

What the hell was going on?

Kurama chuckled. "Matatabi, you're sealed inside a human. How's that working out for you? We Tailed Beasts should stand together."

Matatabi hesitated.

Kurama wasn't wrong.

Being sealed was worse than death.

"If you want to be free, I can help," Kurama offered. "Look."

He held out his palm, and suddenly, the chakras of Shukaku and Gyūki flared to life.

Matatabi froze in shock.

"Shukaku? Gyūki?!"

The sheer power radiating from Kurama wasn't just his own. He had merged with them.

Matatabi was stunned. Shukaku and Kurama had always been rivals. How the hell were they working together?

But did it even matter?

Freedom was freedom.

Yugito's heart pounded.

The Tailed Beasts were forming an alliance.

What could she do against that?

Run.

She had to escape. This wasn't a battle anymore—it was a slaughter.

With a burst of chakra, she leaped away.

But Kurama was faster.

A giant red chakra hand snatched her out of the air, tightening around her body like a vice.

A wave of pure terror crashed over her.

"No... no, I won't accept this!"

She wanted to be like Killer Bee. A perfect Jinchūriki.

But Killer Bee was already gone.

And soon, she would be too.

Desperation surged through her.

"AAAAHHH!"

With a deafening roar, Yugito made her final move.

The seal shattered.

Matatabi exploded forth, her massive feline body stretching into the sky. Blue flames erupted, scorching the battlefield.

"Aha! Feels good to be free!" Matatabi growled, flexing her claws.

"Come on, Matatabi," Kurama said, smirking. "Time to come home."

Matatabi hesitated. "Tch. Now that I'm free—"

Kurama's eyes narrowed. "You think you're free? Look around."

Suddenly, chains of pure chakra shot out, wrapping around Matatabi's enormous form, binding her instantly.

Her pupils shrank in shock. "Wha—?! What is this sealing technique?!"

Kurama chuckled darkly. "Why don't you come closer and find out?"

Just then, a thunderous boom shook the battlefield.

The Land of Lightning's forces had arrived.

Hundreds of Cloud shinobi poured in, their eyes widening in horror at the sight before them.

Matatabi—their mighty Two-Tails—was bound, helpless.

And standing in front of her, smirking, was the last person they ever wanted to see.

Killer Bee and the Third Raikage pushed through the ranks, their expressions darkening.

They saw him.

"It's him... it's really him."

A ghost from their nightmares.

The Nine-Tails Jinchūriki.

The monster who had humiliated the Eight-Tails.

The man who had once torn through their forces like paper.

Kurama grinned, crimson eyes glowing.

"Yo. It's been a while, hasn't it?"
