　Madara Uchiha didn't speak. He closed his eyes to sense his surroundings briefly, then opened them and said, "Let's go!"

　"The Rakshasa should be arriving soon!"

　After saying that, the two instantly disappeared above the Hokage Rock.

　Below, the entire Hidden Leaf Village was engulfed in flames, and cries of agony filled the air.

　Hiruzen Sarutobi was grave, unable to bring himself to kill Kushina, torn between his emotions.

　Even now, I'm still a bit confused. How could the Nine-Tails suddenly go berserk without any warning?

　Kushina didn't even have time to send a message to the villagers before she was controlled by the Nine-Tails' chakra overflowing from the Eight Trigrams Seal, and completely transformed into a tailed beast.

　If she could control the Nine-Tails' power now, she would be the perfect Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

　But she couldn't control it, which is considered a nine-tailed berserk state.

　Kushina's strength was on a completely different level from Mito Uzumaki's; how could she control it?! With a roar, Kushina, transformed into her tailed beast form, faced the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was not far away, and directly swung her claws down.

　The Nine-Tails' Claw, imbued with chakra, possessed immense power, comparable to a divine weapon, and was indestructible! Hiruzen Sarutobi gritted his teeth; behind him was a squad of Konoha ninja and civilians—he couldn't stand idly by.

　He summoned the Monkey King's Golden Cudgel, but could only forcibly control the Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand to block the attack.

　Boom! Even though the Monkey King's Ruyi Jingu Bang had enlarged and lengthened, the Tailed Beast's claw still possessed the force of ten million jin! It still slammed Hiruzen Sarutobi into the ground with overwhelming force, and the terrifying power erupted, causing the earth to explode and create a terrifying chasm that spread outwards in concentric circles, sinking deep into the ground.

　"Lord Hokage!"

　A figure flashed past suddenly, like a sharp blade of light, severing the Nine-Tails' chakra-transformed claws, appearing at the edge of the collapsing earth.

　This man was tall and imposing, carrying a short-bladed sword on his back, with silver-white hair and a Hokage-style half-sleeve on his right arm as vibrant as the sun! The newcomer was none other than Hatake Sakumo.

　"I'm fine"

　"Kushina must not be hurt! This is not her fault,"

　Hiruzen Sarutobi leaped up from the crack in the earth, coughed violently, and shook his head.

　Sakumo Hatake smiled wryly and said, "I know, but you're not unaware of the Nine-Tails' power."

　Whatever the gaze falls upon, another strange change occurs.

　本章

　(1/2)

　The claw formed from the dense Nine-Tails chakra on Kushina's body was severed, but instantly, chakra surged and a new claw appeared, completely unharmed.

　Tailed beasts possess immense destructive power. Most importantly, their bodies are constructed entirely of chakra, allowing them to freely transform and regenerate infinitely.

　Unless they are subjected to a powerful, irreversible attack in one go, they are difficult to suppress.

　The Jinchūriki also inherited the characteristics of the Tailed Beasts! The Nine-Tails is not the Eight-Tails after all; the Nine-Tails is much stronger. The Third Raikage could suppress the Eight-Tails in hand-to-hand combat, but he could never suppress the Nine-Tails.

　Through a Jinchūriki, the Nine-Tails' power can be unleashed even greater strength! However, the Jinchūriki suffers the most, and the worst outcome is that the Jinchūriki eventually dies from exhaustion.

　Kushina possessed a Sage Body, and the Uzumaki bloodline made her the perfect vessel for a Tailed Beast. By utilizing this body, the power of the Nine-Tails could be unleashed to its fullest extent.

　The Raikage was able to suppress the Eight-Tails thanks to his powerful taijutsu and lightning release techniques.

　Although Hiruzen Sarutobi is known as the "Professor of Ninjutsu," his physique is far superior to the Raikage's.

　They either have to unleash the forbidden technique Reaper Death Seal to quickly resolve the situation, or they can only lead the Konoha ninja to barely hold off the Nine-Tails while simultaneously evacuating the ninja and civilians within Konoha to shelters.

　How could this happen?

　Hiruzen Sarutobi gritted his teeth, feeling utterly powerless, watching the rampaging Nine-Tails and the irrational Kushina wreak havoc across the field, their frenzied attacks seemingly unstoppable.

　Sakumo Hatake, standing to the side, took a deep breath and said, "Hokage-sama, regardless..."

　How did the Bagua seal loosen? What we need to do now is to stop it and prevent it from continuing to break down.

　"And if something happens to Kushina, I won't be able to explain it to Ye Chen."

　"Um!"

　Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded, and then charged forward with Sakumo Hatake.

　If Yoruichi knew Kushina was in trouble, who knows what he would do! Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't imagine it; the aftermath of this sudden incident was too great! Fear in people's hearts is unstoppable. Even if Kushina recovers, she probably won't be able to live as happily as she does now.

　Like the Jinchuriki of other ninja villages, in this era, the Jinchuriki of Konoha are definitely the happiest! Of course, this doesn't include Naruto Uzumaki from the original story, who took the Fourth Hokage with him at birth! The common people had already blamed Naruto for everything; they needed a scapegoat, an outlet for their anger! That's just how ordinary people are, and that's human nature! And when faced with the Nine-Tails' sudden rampage, the Jinchuriki wreaked havoc! Not only was Hiruzen Sarutobi fighting back, but remarkably, Danzo also led Root to assist the Anbu in evacuation and resistance.

　Every now and then, he'd unleash a few Wind Release projectiles towards the center, combining them with Hiruzen Sarutobi's Vacuum Ball technique! And let's not forget, Danzo's Wind Release was indeed powerful and his skill profound! In the original story, he should have sliced ​​through Sasuke's Susanoo; his strength was no weakling! Jiraiya was at Mount Myōboku, and Tsunade was on her way! Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin, stepped forward. At this point, he couldn't possibly stand by and watch the Nine-Tails wreak havoc! He couldn't handle the Nine-Tails' true form; now he was only facing a Jinchūriki. Orochimaru felt he still had some confidence.

　"Shadow Serpent Hand!"

　A massive swarm of black snakes was summoned to attack, attempting to immobilize Kushina! "Roar!"

　However, accompanied by a roar of a tailed beast, invisible sound waves spread out, causing the earth to collapse and the sky to shake violently, instantly turning thousands upon thousands of snakes into a bloody mist! Orochimaru himself was also blown away, and it's unclear where he crashed into.

Chapter 356 The Vortex Sealing Technique Reappears

　This content is being published for the first time (first update).

　Orochimaru!

　Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression changed drastically. He had witnessed his student being blasted away by the Nine-Tails, his fate unknown, and he was momentarily thrown into turmoil.

　But he couldn't leave at this moment; he needed to protect the front lines! In an instant, all the powerful figures from Konoha mobilized, unleashing a barrage of ninjutsu in an attempt to stop Kushina as she transformed into the Nine-Tails. Surprisingly, some of these techniques were even somewhat effective, suppressing the Nine-Tails and forcing it to retreat slightly.

　"Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!" "Wind Release: Vacuum Ball!" "Water Release: Dam Construction!" "Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning!" "Sealing Chains!"

　Suddenly, for some reason...

　Golden chains appeared, stretching across the sky, binding Kushina's body.

　"This is!"

　Hiruzen Sarutobi looked surprised.

　Behind her, Uzumaki Miko radiated a dazzling golden light, the bloodline power of the Uzumaki clan surged, and the sealing chains unfurled! "She is a descendant of the Uzumaki clan!"

　Hiruzen Sarutobi recalled that Minato Namikaze seemed to have brought back a girl from the Uzumaki clan from the Land of Rain.

　However, he didn't pay much attention to it at the time, only that he didn't expect this child to have such an extraordinary talent for sealing techniques.

　The Uzumaki clan is naturally able to suppress tailed beasts, but not everyone can awaken a powerful sealing technique like the Sealing Chains.

　For example, Karin Uzumaki in the original work did not initially possess sealing chains, and only forcibly awakened them near the end of the Naruto series.

　As for Nagato Uzumaki, who also belonged to the Uzumaki clan, apart from his immense chakra, there was not a trace of sealing power to be seen.

　"If that's the case, perhaps we can save Kushina!"

　A glimmer of hope rose in Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart; could this child be the turning point in this incident?

　"Another one with the Uzumaki bloodline!"

　On the other side, Danzo also noticed Uzumaki Miko, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

　It seems she's come up with another wicked idea! Indeed, the sealing chains lived up to expectations! For a fleeting moment, they truly suppressed Kushina, even causing the tailed beast chakra on her body to fade considerably.

　"Great, it's under control!"

　"The Hokage and Sakumo-sama are so powerful!"

　"That girl too!"

　Seeing the Jinchuriki bound, some ninjas and civilians showed expressions of joy.

　However, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Sakumo Hatake, and the others were not so optimistic and could not be happy.

　Because they all knew that this was just the beginning! Miko's current situation was peculiar; she felt incredibly weak, yet an inexhaustible source of power was supporting her.

　She knew about the sealing chains, but she didn't know they could be used! Just now, she was truly worried about Kushina.

　Then, a mysterious power suddenly surged from the depths of her heart! This was the bloodline inheritance of the Uzumaki clan. The Uzumaki clan is a branch of the Six Paths bloodline, and the power of the Six Paths bloodline, to some extent, originates from emotions, from love or hate! Whether it was the Sage of Six Paths, or his son Ashura and Indra, the power of such people was largely related to emotions! The greater the emotional fluctuations, the deeper the love, the more intense the hate, the stronger the power gained! If the probability of the Uzumaki clan's bloodline activating this power is one in ten thousand, then ordinary Uzumaki clan members like Uzumaki Miko are that… one in ten thousand, lucky one! But after all, it is a newly awakened power; she cannot suppress the Nine-Tails yet, at most she can only delay it for a moment.

　It's only for a short time.

　(1/2)

　Roar! Already in a berserk state, seemingly completely out of his mind, the Jinchuriki, after being repelled by Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others, was further suppressed by the sealing chains! He became even more frenzied, roaring to the sky, and a terrifying burst of chakra shook the entire area in an instant.

　The crimson chakra seemed to have dyed the entire sky crimson, casting an ominous shadow over the whole of Konoha.

　Everyone was horrified. Such terrifying chakra was beyond the reach of anyone present, including Hiruzen Sarutobi! The chakra reserves of tailed beasts were simply incomparable to those of humans; even a peak Kage-level shinobi's chakra reserves were far inferior to those of a tailed beast.

　Of course, the power and strength of a Tailed Beast are not directly proportional! Some Tailed Beasts may be powerful enough to defeat a peak Kage-level opponent.

　For example, even a relatively weaker Three-Tailed Isobu can be suppressed by a peak Kage-level shikigami, or at least be able to entangle with it if not.

　However, the Nine-Tails is different and is not included.

　The Nine-Tails is incredibly powerful, arguably the strongest of all the tailed beasts. Not only is its chakra reserves nearly off the charts, but its combat strength is also unmatched by any other tailed beast. In its complete form, it can fly and burrow underground, seemingly capable of anything! With a frenzied surge of chakra, a terrifyingly powerful chakra ball suddenly condensed in front of the Jinchūriki.

　This chakra sphere is formed by a blend of blue and dark black energies, in a ratio of approximately 2:8 or 3:7.

　"This is a Tailed Beast Ball!"

　Upon witnessing this scene, Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others all gasped in shock.

　They were all knowledgeable and understood what this was! Especially after the last sealing of the Nine-Tails, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Sakumo Hatake had both witnessed the power of the Tailed Beast Ball.

　If this were released in the heart of Konoha, most of the village would probably be destroyed! "Such a high density of chakra is extremely dangerous, Hokage!"

　Sakumo Hatake said

　The next moment!! Buzz! A terrifying chakra suddenly solidified, and the atmosphere became incredibly heavy, filling the entire world with a sense of oppression.
