Listening to the 'devil's whisper' coming from the black-framed large screen.
Unexpectedly, some people began to feel sympathy for the Great Fox.
Inside the Sealing Space.
The Nine-Tailed was also weary of life.
If one didn't know better, they would think it had suffered the same treatment as Kurenai Yuhi.
Right.
Kurenai Yuhi... at this moment.
Kurenai Yuhi's face was flushed completely red.
Anko Mitarashi beside her, however, didn't feel much of anything.
Presumably, she hadn't thought of anything in particular.
She just felt that her counterpart in the black frame world seemed very close to Black-framed Naruto-kun.
The appearance of Kurenai Yuhi in the black frame world just now had also been just a flash.
She didn't pay it much mind.
However, seeing her best friend's face suddenly turn red.
She guessed it must be something very intimate.
It was normal for her best friend to be a bit bashful.
But... right now, dango were more important.
Mhm~
On the other hand, Yūgao Uzuki.
She had clearly thought of much more.
She even projected herself into the situation.
In just a moment.
Yūgao's delicate body trembled.
She looked at Naruto on the black-framed large screen with a somewhat complex gaze.
Unconsciously, that pretty face was also covered in a crimson hue.
She couldn't help but chide, "Rebellious disciple~"
Hearing the commotion, Anko asked in confusion, "Rebellious disciple?"
"Why do you sound like you're a bit excited and even a bit expectant?"
Yūgao Uzuki: "..."
Elsewhere, Tsunade, who was on the road, felt something.
"Shizune."
"What is it, Lady Tsunade?" Shizune replied quickly.
Seeing Tsunade's expression return to something more normal.
Shizune secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Lady Tsunade in that previous state was too terrifying.
It's better like this... just like this, being a bit more normal is better.
"Do you think... Black-Framed Naruto will come up with some crooked scheme?"
A crooked scheme?
Shizune blinked.
She naturally understood Tsunade's meaning.
It was about her counterpart in the black frame world rejecting Naruto.
And seeing through Naruto's 'little tricks'.
And then he might employ one of those methods Black-framed Naruto-kun mentioned before, saying there were still many ways to use her.
"He wouldn't force you, would he?" Shizune asked tentatively.
Seeing that Tsunade didn't look upset.
Shizune was about to analyze further.
Suddenly, Tsunade looked at her with a serious and earnest expression.
"That kid... will he also want to play some master-disciple game?"
"I think that kid... seems to quite like that kind of thing."
Shizune: "..."
This isn't the bus to Konoha Kindergarten, goodbye.
The black-framed large screen footage continued:
[Inside the Sealing Space, Naruto looked at the Great Fox in confusion.]
[He felt it was a bit strange.]
[This shouldn't be the reaction, right?]
[Given the Great Fox's personality.]
[Even if he became stronger, it would find ways to belittle him and elevate itself.]
[How come this time it didn't even take a verbal advantage?]
[Anyway, which time didn't I let it have its way?]
[Could it be... that the Adamantine Sealing Chains just now actually hurt it?]
[Thinking of this, Naruto got a bit anxious.]
["Great Fox, what's wrong with you?"]
["If you don't give some advice, my Wood Release will probably just stay at this level."]
["Even the Wood Clone..."]
[The words trailed off.]
[Naruto closed his mouth.]
[Just now, he had clapped his hands together and thought to himself that it probably shared similar principles with the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique and Shadow Clone.]
[Moreover, this Wood Release seemed to test one's imagination even more.]
[Wood Release was like a 'clump of mud' that could be kneaded at will; shaping it wasn't very difficult.]
[Then... he saw his own shoulder turn to wood, and from it emerged a Wood Clone that was even more advanced than a Shadow Clone.]
[A simple technique, whatever he thought of appeared; he was self-taught.]
Senju Hashirama: Hahaha~
Senju Hashirama: As expected, Naruto has the blood of the Senju in his veins.
Senju Hashirama: His revival of the Uzumaki... is also a revival of the Senju~!
Senju Tobirama: "Big brother, Black-framed Naruto-kun seems a bit different from you... but then again, this kid is indeed hard to judge by common logic."
Senju Hashirama: Indeed, Wood Release... really does require imagination.
Senju Hashirama: Even though the current Black-framed Naruto-kun masters the Five Elements Secret Techniques, Wood Release is brand new; everything must be explored from scratch.
Senju Hashirama: I just don't know why the Nine-Tailed refuses to tell him about the Wood Release I used to use.
Everyone: "..."
Well, this God of Shinobi... is truly an airhead.
[Seeing that the Great Fox still hadn't responded.]
[Naruto coughed twice.]
["Great Fox, how about... you hit me back?"]
["Sorry about that, using you to experiment with the Adamantine Sealing Chains just now."]
[Still no reaction.]
[Uh oh, it seems it's going to be hard to coax it back to a good mood.]
["Great Fox~?"]
[He called out several times in a row.]
[Finally, the Great Fox turned its head.]
["Go away!"]
Naruto: "..."
[Alright...]
[But... at this moment, a thought flashed through Naruto's mind.]
["Susanoo... I've got it!"]
["Great Fox, come on, don't be unhappy. I'll let you beat me up in a bit, okay?"]
["I have an idea... let's try out our bond first, how about it?"]
[Bond?]
[As expected, this word is quite useful.]
[After all, a burning passion can also be described with 'bond'.]
["What do you want to do now?"]
[Seeing Naruto's eyes full of expectation.]
[The refusal on the Great Fox's lips was swallowed back, and it asked irritably.]
["If you dare mess around again... This Fox will ignore you!"]
["Don't worry, this time I absolutely, positively won't!"]
["Hmm?!"]
["Ahem... I won't ever do it again in the future either!"]
["Let's not talk about that, come and try this quickly."]
[As he spoke, Naruto had already jumped onto the Great Fox's head.]
["Hmph~!"]
["If you dare make fun of This Fox again, This Fox will..."]
[Clap—]
[Before the Great Fox could finish, the sound of Naruto clapping his hands came from atop its head.]
["Ready!"]
["Rise—!!!"]
[Wood Release... Susanoo Technique!]
[Buzz—]
[The next instant.]
[The Great Fox's eyes widened.]
[That familiar feeling came again.]
[No way?]
[This kid... he really wants to?]
[However, the result exceeded the Great Fox's expectations.]
[The Great Fox tightly closed its eyes.]
[A moment later, the Great Fox opened its eyes and looked.]
[Then the entire fox was dazed.]
[This... that familiar feeling just now... Majestic Attire: Susanoo... and Wood Release...]
[How did they combine?]
[The Great Fox froze for a moment, then lifted its paw to examine itself.]
[It was true.]
[This feeling was too familiar.]
[Just like Uchiha Madara's Majestic Attire: Susanoo back then.]
[Cladding itself in a layer of Karasu Tengu armor.]
[But in the end, it was beaten by those sky-blotting fists until only a few hairs were left.]
[Right now... the situation seemed the same, yet it also seemed very different.]
[That blue Karasu Tengu armor had turned into Wood Release.]
[And the master who could beat armor of this strength until only a few hairs remained... was no longer there, and there was also one atop its own head.]
[This little blondie, whom the fox both loved and hated, wouldn't say the fox's power was too strong and that he couldn't let the fox be free... on the contrary, he wanted the fox to be free.]
[Thinking of this, the Great Fox's nose twitched.]
[But I am the majestic head of the Tailed Beasts!]
[It quickly suppressed its emotions, curled its lip, and said, "Where did you... Izumi?"]
[Right, that Uchiha girl, the only one the fox found tolerable, seemed to have shown the true power of the Mangekyo Sharingan once.]
[Susanoo... it must have been then.]
[This little blondie has a very rich imagination~]
[Hmph~!]
[Is it not because This Fox taught him well?]
[Mere Uchiha Madara?]
[Mere Senju Hashirama?]
[Dammit!]
[Thirty years East of the River, thirty years West of the River, do not look down on a fox just because he's down!]
[Let you all witness the power of our bond!]
