No, where does this portal come from?

"What on earth are you..." A trembling voice sounded in the dense forest, and Sarutobi Hiruzen's wrinkled face was stretched out like a wrinkled bun in surprise.

"We can discuss this issue in detail later." Naruto said, his blue eyes meeting Sarutobi Hiruzen's. "As for now, I want to break this seal."

As he spoke, Naruto slightly struggled with his palm.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's old hand was immediately broken free.

Before he could react, Naruto's palm was already covering the young Naruto's stomach.

seal--

untie!

All of a sudden!

Young Naruto's body suddenly shook!

The seal on the abdomen seemed to fade away quickly at this moment.

The moment the Nine-Tailed Fox, which was coiled in the spiritual space, felt the seal disappear, its drowsy look quickly faded away.

A hint of cruelty flashed in the scarlet, blood-thirsty beast's eyes.

giggle-

Let me see, who is so considerate?!

He actually lifted his own seal.

I really have to thank you... stranger.

The scarlet chakra seeped out from the pores when no one was suppressing it.

It was as if a layer of red grease was flowing out from under the skin and covering the body of young Naruto.

At the same time, the young Naruto's tender blue eyes were gradually dyed scarlet, and the expression of doubt in the previous second turned cruel and bloodthirsty in the next second.

"Oh no! The Nine-Tails has revived!" Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart was in his throat at this moment.

He clenched his fists and quickly performed the psychic technique!

"Spiritual! Monkey King, Ape Demon!"

As dense spiritual patterns spread out in all directions, a cloud of smoke exploded from the center!

Before the smoke dissipated, a huge hand covered with white hair tore through the thick fog.

Then, a huge ape about three meters tall appeared in the dense forest.

The ape demon was all white and wore a vest made of tiger skin.

As soon as he appeared and saw the scene in front of him, the Ape Demon began to sweat profusely: "You really have caused me a big trouble..."

Faced with the rioting Nine-Tails Chakra, even if the two of them work together to subdue the opponent, they may need to suffer some injuries before they can solve the problem.

After all, judging from Sarutobi Hiruzen's personality, it is definitely impossible for him to kill the 'Jinchūriki', a box weapon.

Since you need to hold back, the difficulty of the work naturally increases a lot.

Just like it is always easier to kill a criminal than to capture him alive.

"There's nothing I can do."

"Who told that person to take action on his own?" Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a cold face.

"That person?" The ape demon was a little confused.

"Yes, the one next to Kyuubi."

Following Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, he looked in that direction and discovered that there was a golden figure next to the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

The chakra flowing on the figure's body was obviously that of the Nine-Tails, but it lacked much of the Nine-Tails' violent, bloodthirsty and crazy nature.

"Is he also an enemy?" Enma looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen in confusion.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face darkened when he heard this: "If he can't handle this matter well, then he will be the enemy."

If he secretly broke the seal that suppressed the Nine-Tailed Fox, he would probably become the enemy of the entire village, and even his family would be criticized.

"...Then treat him as an enemy."

The ape demon spoke lightly.

Then his body shook and turned into a golden cudgel as thick as an arm and fell into Sarutobi Hiruzen's hand.

The hardness of the golden cudgel is surprisingly high.

He was able to remain unscathed even when facing Sasuke's Kusanagi sword, which was as powerful as cutting through mud.

Of course, whether the ape demon will feel pain is another matter.

In this kind of situation, only those who feel the pain will understand.

Turn your attention to the young Naruto, whose mind was eroded by the Nine-Tails' chakra.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was on high alert at this moment.

He was about to speak when he saw the masked golden figure place a hand on young Naruto's head.

The moment the two came into contact.

The red chakra that was boiling and rolling like lava on the surface of young Naruto's body was like a bucket of ice water was poured into it, and it suddenly calmed down.

At the same time, young Naruto seemed to be under a spell of immobilization.

The whole person stood there in the same position, motionless.

Only the faint sound of his breathing and heartbeat proved that he still had vital signs.

within the spiritual space.

Young Naruto stood in the murky 'water' in confusion.

Half of his calf was submerged in the water.

The cold, murky water gave young Naruto a chill.

Just as he was about to raise his eyes to take a closer look at the space, a huge red fence blocked his view.

Looking through the huge gap in the fence...

In the deep darkness behind the fence.

A pair of eyeballs, like giant red lanterns glowing red, were staring straight at him.

The cruelty in his pupils made the hairs on his skin stand up the moment his eyes met.

It's as if an animal has encountered its natural enemy.

A manic atmosphere permeated the enclosed space, and even the young Naruto felt a little suffocated by the atmosphere.

Just as he was suppressing his fear and wanted to go forward to take a closer look.

Suddenly, there was a big, warm hand on my shoulder.

Turn your head and look back.

A golden figure appeared behind him.

The figure was talking nonsense and emitting golden light, and the whole person looked warm.

Like a little sun.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Naruto said to his younger self.

His words gave people a sense of extreme peace of mind. Although he didn't know why, young Naruto couldn't help but choose to believe him.

Two people, one big and one small, stood in the water, their eyes fixed on the prison.

Golden light emanated from Naruto, illuminating the dark prison.

It also reflected the huge body of the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Kyuubi looked at the two men cruelly.

His gaze shifted from young Naruto to Naruto, who was radiating golden light.

His eyes changed from cruel to doubtful, and then from doubtful to shocked...

Kyuubi sees not only the surface, but something deeper.

Just like...

Another Nine-Tails on Naruto.

And this true Nine-Tails Chakra without any emotional contamination.

This guy.

How could there be another me inside of me?! What on earth is going on?

"Who are you?" The Nine-Tailed Fox's huge body stretched slightly and looked at Naruto.

"Who am I? How about letting him tell you?" Naruto smiled slightly and then called out, "Kurama!"

"Oh--"

Another nine-tailed figure appeared in this space.

But compared to the nine-tailed fox in front of him, this nine-tailed fox looked very kind.

There was always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. Compared with the fox in front of him who seemed to want to destroy the whole world, he was very kind.

"You are……"

"Who am I... haven't you known it in your mind for a long time?" Jiu Lama looked at himself, who was still in a dark mind and had been in a world-weary state for a long time. He suddenly felt like he was seeing his own dark history.

It feels like you've grown up, but suddenly one day, you go back in time and see yourself speaking Martian, with colorful hair, and in your non-mainstream period.

If you can't imagine this scene, please go to your QQ space and look through the posts from a few years ago. The moment you see the old posts, you will probably understand the feeling.

"Are you me?" Kyuubi asked in confusion.

But he quickly shook his head.

"No...you can't be me!" Kyuubi's teeth were grinding.

The fiery red hair seemed to be burning.

Although his body was divided into yin and yang, the self in front of him was all the 'yang' part.

He could not feel any power belonging to 'Yin'.

Besides, if he was himself, why would he be free?

Why are emotions so stable?

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

"Why can't I be you?" Jiu Lama asked back.

Although he knew it was difficult for Kyuubi to accept this situation, this was the reality.

There was nothing he could do to change it.

"Why can't it be me?" Nine Tails gnashed his teeth, "It's because I'm trapped here, stuck in this dark and cramped space every day, while you're free from any constraints or negative emotions!"

"You must be fake!"

“Only the me now is real!”

"Really?" Jiu Lama shook his head slightly, not knowing what to say. Then he said, "How about I help you open this seal?"

"Roar? Okay!" A hint of cunning flashed in Kyuubi's eyes, but more of it was cruelty.

Although he didn't think that the impostor in front of him would really fulfill his promise, he was unwilling to give up as long as there was a glimmer of hope of getting out.

"But aren't you afraid that I'll eat this child after I get out?"

"Eating people..." Jiu Lama hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head: "As another you, I know clearly what you like and what you hate."

"Your favorite food is chicken and rabbit, not humans. You could even say you hate eating humans."

"So I'm not worried that you'll hurt the child after you get out."

"Besides, do you really think you can hurt him?"
