Chapter 171 Seizing a Position



Next is the curse seal, which is unwilling to be lonely. The power of the curse seal was once regarded by Mizuki as his last desperate trump card. But in fact, Mizuki never used it once. Instead, an unexpected outbreak in the Land of Waves almost cost him his life. And this time, the activity was only stimulated by natural energy. With the example of Senjutsu Chakra, this "sage-like" curse seal is completely at a disadvantage in every aspect. Although the effect is also stimulated, it only serves to increase the strength and speed of the body. After the potential of the body is suppressed by Senjutsu Chakra, the alienation phenomenon caused by the curse seal will not occur. Before the Sage Mode is released, the curse seal should not be very harmful.

What is most troublesome to Mizuki is Shukaku's chakra. Although the amount is the smallest, it is the most destructive. The extremely aggressive and difficult to control characteristics make it much more difficult for Mizuki to maintain balance in his body. The weakened perception brought by it has brought many dangers to Mizuki. More importantly, the danger brought to Mizuki by this resonance is not just the problem of the possible release of the Sage Mode.

There is a conjecture that Mizuki had thought of but initially ruled out, but he did not expect that it would eventually come true. That is, are the tailed beasts that can be reborn continuously the only ones? Or is the one that is resurrected after death still the original tailed beast?

Mizuki had not thought about it carefully at first, but now it seems that the chakra resonance and chakra exchange with Shukaku have confirmed some of Mizuki's guesses.

There is a very famous scene in the original animation. In the Fire Temple of the Land of Fire, there is also a young man whose body is injected with the Nine-Tails Chakra. This young man named "Sora" during the battle with Uzumaki Naruto, the Nine-Tails Chakra in his body became active and resonated with Uzumaki Naruto's tailed beast. Then, this young man named "Sora" almost became the medium and sacrifice for the resurrection of the Nine-Tails.

When Mizuki first got the clone of Shukaku, he didn't think too much about it. But after using the chakra of the tailed beast to practice the Sage Mode, Mizuki couldn't help but think of this matter when he considered the hidden dangers of this behavior. For this reason, Mizuki also investigated the Fire Temple and concluded that there is a Fire Temple in the Fire Kingdom, and there is also a highly respected monk named Ji Lu. The ninja monks in the Fire Temple also have a powerful method called "Sage Talent", but there is no gloomy boy named "Kora".

So. Shuimu once thought that these were all nonsense. However, reality taught Shuimu a big lesson. It is not that this person does not exist in reality, but the principle of his existence is wrong. The occurrence of resonance proved that what Shuimu was worried about originally became a fact.

The tailed beasts are born with the will of humans. They can be resurrected from the dead and may inherit all the memories and experiences of their predecessors. In other words, they can be resurrected perfectly. However, there is a situation that may break this inherent law, just like Mizuki intercepted a clone of Shukaku. In fact, from the principle of existence, the clone and Shukaku are exactly the same. The difference is that Shukaku has higher authority, can call on more chakra, and use more powerful power, while the clone is much worse.

However, if Mizuki kills Shukaku here, will the Shukaku that is resurrected in three years be the same one that Mizuki is seeing now? More precisely, will there be another Shukaku resurrected in three years? From now on, it seems that there will be no Shukaku. If Shukaku dies, then the "Naruto of Sandstorm" that Mizuki created will become a real Jinchūriki, and will definitely not be just a container for storing the tailed beast's chakra. The tailed beast clone in his body will also gradually grow into a complete Shukaku, but it will no longer be the one in front of him.

"So, Shukaku and I are now enemies to the death?"

This is not the first time that the tailed beasts have been separated. The Fourth Hokage once split the Nine-Tails into Yin-Yang Nine-Tails. This was only a division in attributes, and it was still the same Nine-Tails in essence. However, the way Mizuki split was different. The tailed beast clones with independent wills would undoubtedly become a truly complete tailed beast after the original body died.

Now, the harm of resonance is right in front of us. Shukaku's chakra absorbs a lot of natural energy, but it is suppressed by the fairy chakra and curse seal in the body, and cannot develop further. However, the natural energy it absorbs will not stop, and eventually it surrounds Mizuki, forming a circle of dense natural energy formed by the protective shield. With the uncontrolled leakage of Shukaku's chakra. The protective shield was eventually dyed an ominous red. Its appearance gradually changed into a red monster with a grinning head, a tail that is too large compared to the body, and sharp claws on its limbs. When squatting, it looks like a raccoon cat. In addition to the strange color and not being made of sand, it is simply a smaller version of Shukaku.

Seeing Mizuki like this, Shukaku, who had just let out a sigh of relief, was immediately furious. At Mizuki's "unbridled" imitation of his image, Shukaku raised his claws angrily and slapped the ground near Mizuki, stirring up a large cloud of flying dust, as if he would not stop until he had crushed Mizuki into a meat paste. Moreover, as if he still felt unsatisfied, he raised his powerful tail again and was about to slap him hard.

At this moment, a giant red hand suddenly broke through the smoke and grabbed the huge tail that was about to fall. After the smoke and dust cleared, a red energy arm was seen in front of Mizuki's right hand, connected to the giant hand holding Shukaku's tail, which was obviously under Mizuki's control.

"Is this the tailed beast transformation? That's not right. It doesn't seem to be a tailed beast coat. What on earth is that?" Shukaku, who gradually faced up to Mizuki's strength, also began to try to communicate with him.

"Are you frightened by this unprecedented method? I heard that you are the weakest and most cowardly of the tailed beasts, and you are just a piece of trash who can only bully the weak..."

"Waste? What gives you the confidence to brag like that? Just with this inexplicable fighting posture of yours?" Shukaku said as he moved his body and the restricted tail, but it didn't work. Mizuki's power was too great and he couldn't get rid of it.

"Arrogant? You could say that." Shuimu, whose physical strength was temporarily enhanced to an unparalleled level by this strange state, said confidently, "Although I don't know what will happen to me later, at least now I have the strength. I have the right to brag."

After saying that, Mizuki mobilized all his strength, and through the giant hand connected to the energy arm, he swung the tailed beast in a circle, sending it flying backwards, rolling in the air, and then falling heavily to the ground.

"At least now I am fearless..."

Roaring out those crazy words that seemed to cheer himself up, Mizuki once again used his giant energy hand to pick up Shukaku, and after a spin in the air, he threw him in the direction of Hidan who was not far away. In front of Hidan's horrified gaze, Shukaku fell heavily and hit him directly.
