Chapter 369 It's just a fox.

　This content was first published here (second update).

　Back of Konoha

　A golden figure moved through the forest at an almost unbelievable speed, like a golden lightning bolt, appearing and disappearing without a trace.

　This is Kushina in Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, her entire body enveloped in golden energy, using the Nine-Tails' chakra to enhance her speed, perception, and strength, somewhat similar to Sage Mode.

　Actually, Nine-Tails Mode can also be considered a type of Sage Mode.

　Because in the original story, Naruto later used the Nine-Tails to condense the power of nature! Logically, whoever signs the contract should be responsible for condensing natural energy, but that doesn't work for the cheater.

　Looking closely now, there's another afterimage constantly flashing beside Kushina, its speed far exceeding hers! If Kushina's speed is like lightning, then this afterimage is more like teleportation, instantly moving from one place to another.

　That afterimage was undoubtedly Ye Chen.

　This is not true teleportation, but rather a manifestation of extreme speed.

　Kushina and Yoru's figures flickered continuously in the forest behind the mountain. Yoru began to let Kushina attack him, training her strength and allowing her to gradually master this mode.

　After that, Ye Chen also made his move. He couldn't keep taking hits forever; only real combat experience could hone Kushina's speed and perception.

　The Nine-Tails Chakra Mode's sensory abilities are incredibly powerful, comparable even to Observation Haki.

　Compared to Observation Haki, the Nine-Tails' sensory ability simply lacks many evolutionary paths; it is merely a simple perception.

　Observation Haki has many developmental directions, such as prediction, foresight, and mind reading. Of course, Ye Chen's attack on Kushina couldn't have been a mere pat; with the Nine-Tails' chakra protecting her, he still had to fight.

　However, the force was well controlled; aside from not hitting her face, it only made Kushina's blood surge and her whole body feel sore and numb. Kushina initially kept quiet, her face flushed.

　But as the physical abnormalities became more and more obvious, and the sensations actually felt quite comfortable...

　The surge of blood and qi caused my body to feel warm, but not actually hot. It felt like a warm current was flowing through it, a tingling, electric shock-like sensation.

　"Stop! Stop! Stop!!"

　After several flashes, Kushina finally stopped, exhaling heavily, then puffing out her cheeks.

　A blush crept across her cheeks, but thankfully, it wasn't noticeable under the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode.

　Ye Chen appeared before her, shrugged, and said, "Tired?"

　"Tired my ass!"

　Kushina mentally screamed, "With the Nine-Tails' chakra, how can I get tired? A perpetual motion machine wouldn't be an exaggeration!"

　He said rather gently, "It's just that my body isn't used to it yet!"

　"Then you need to practice more!"

　Ye Chen said

　"Ha ha ha ha!"

　The sealed space, Nine-Tails laughs wildly, and the Jinchuriki's will can naturally sense each other's emotions.

　The Nine-Tails could sense Kushina's presence and immediately found the human's emotions strange.

　"why are you laughing!"

　Kushina split off a portion of her consciousness and started baring her teeth and claws in front of her, feeling very embarrassed.

　What exactly happened?

　Ye Chen couldn't help but wonder, and asked again.

　"It's strange that Nine-Ratna is watching our training!"

　(1/3)

　Kushina looked at Ye Chen helplessly and even punched him twice in the chest.

　at this time

　At this moment, Ye Chen understood perfectly what Kushina meant.

　When men and women practice martial arts, physical contact is a very natural thing.

　He didn't think much of it, but Kushina's body would react.

　Girls are shy, so naturally they won't say it outright.

　Ye Zhua immediately laughed, "It's just a fox, what does it know?"

　Nine-Tailed Fox heard Ye Chen's words and felt increasingly strange! She felt she had been unwittingly offended! What did he mean by "just a fox"? This wasn't just looking down on foxes, it was discrimination!

　Sealed Space

　Kushina, who was initially somewhat ashamed and indignant, saw the Nine-Tails jumping around in the cage.

　Instead of finding it somewhat amusing, she kept urging her to teach Ye Chen a lesson.

　As expected, even if it possessed intelligence, it was indeed just a fox, just as Ye Chen had said.

　The chances of Kushina defeating Ye Chen are slim! Next, with the Nine-Tails' assistance, Kushina entered her full Nine-Tails form and continued fighting Ye Chen, quickly mastering his power. However, she was still easily suppressed by Ye Chen.

　Even with the Nine-Tails' help and near-perfect control of its chakra, Kushina still couldn't defeat Ye Chen, and even a draw was difficult. In the end, even the Nine-Tails had to admit that Ye Chen was indeed ridiculously powerful.

　Like Hashirama, that…cheater, they're both animals! Kurama admits to being stronger than Yoru in terms of chakra, but in terms of combat power, he's miles behind! Even the most powerful Tailed Beast Ball had little effect. Of course, Kurama comforted himself, thinking there are so many ninjas in the world, why compare himself to a cheater? That would only make him angry, it's not worth it.

　Kushina was calm; she was already very satisfied to possess such power.

　I don't aspire to surpass Ye Chen; simply keeping pace with him forever would be enough.

　As the sun sets, Yoru and Kushina lie on the grass, facing the azure sky, their breathing even, embracing the world with smiles.

　"Kushina, your strength is now among the best even in Konoha, which puts my mind at ease. One day you will become the female Hokage."

　Ye Chen said

　Are you leaving, Ye Chen?

　Kushina spoke softly, her face revealing no other emotion, unusually calm.

　"Yes, I'll need to leave Konoha Village after a while."

　Ye Chen said

　These plans had been in place for a long time. If he hadn't encountered the Nine-Tails' rampage upon returning from Shikkotsu Forest, he might already be on his way to the Land of Lightning, where collecting the chakra of all the tailed beasts was one of his next goals.

　Besides the Bloodline Limit, he also needs to master the Six Paths Sage Mode! "How long will it take?"

　Kushina asked

　"I don't know, maybe 35 in three to five years."

　Ye Chen replied

　He seemed to have thought of something. Kushina didn't seem to have any weapons for protection. He had previously obtained a Kusanagi sword, which was of little use to him, so he gave it directly to Kushina.

　There are three Kusanagi swords in the Naruto world, each with its own unique power. The most powerful is undoubtedly the Totsuka Blade, which can seal souls.

　The weapon in Ye Chen's hand... can extend and retract, and it also has the added bonus of the Kusanagi clan's secret techniques, making it extremely powerful.

　Kushina took the Kusanagi sword and remained silent for a long time.

　(2/3)

　Happy times are always fleeting, and parting is always so sorrowful! Afterwards, the two returned to Konoha Village.

　Of course, for the two of them, their fate had already undergone a tremendous change, albeit quietly.

Chapter 370 Mikoto, You're a Good Girl

　This content is being released for the first time! (First update)

　Hokage Building

　Have you thought it through?

　In his Hokage seat, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed softly, his expression somewhat complicated.

　"Um"

　Ye Chen nodded

　"I understand"

　After a moment of silence, Hiruzen Sarutobi knew he couldn't stop Yoru.

　Ye Chen's words just now have already made his absolute stance clear.

　If it were anyone else, even Sakumo Hatake, Hiruzen Sarutobi would have thought twice and wouldn't have allowed Sakumo Hatake to travel the Five Great Nations alone.

　Ye Chen, however, was different. He was young and powerful, and had made many contributions to Konoha, ending the Second Shinobi World War and even suppressing the Nine-Tails.

　This achievement is more than enough to qualify him as Hokage! Compared to that, my own contributions to Konoha as Hokage are actually less than Ye Chen's.

　Of course, Hiruzen Sarutobi still had some selfish motives at this point. Yoru's existence was indeed a thorn in the side of some Konoha high-ranking officials. Even if he could tolerate it, Danzo could not.

　Ye Chen's achievements are indeed likely to arouse jealousy! At this time, leaving Konoha and disappearing for a while is the best choice.

　Ye Chen had no idea that Hiruzen Sarutobi had so many inner monologues and such comprehensive thoughts.

　Perhaps this is the power struggle of those in power, the so-called Naruto-style thinking.
