Naruto: Naruto's Uchiha girlfriend is too tsundere

hum!

Nine enormous characters appeared—blue, white, vermilion, black, void, south, north, three, jade.

Immediately following their master's will, the nine-faced beasts silently swooped down one after another, disappearing into the entrance leading to the "Root" organization's base, right after Menma's figure.

Zhishui stood at the edge of the pit, glancing back one last time at the faint commotion still emanating from the center of the village in the distance.

Without the slightest hesitation, he leaped down and entered the darkest place representing Konoha.

Chapter 99 The Prototype of the Perfect Jinchūriki

"boom--!!!"

In the forest outside Konoha Village, a deafening roar erupted once more! A claw made entirely of frenzied crimson chakra, the Nine-Tails' claw, slammed down fiercely towards the spot where Uchiha Itachi stood!

Before the giant claw had even fully descended, the energy it released had already devastated the forest below. Trees, rocks... everything began to twist and melt violently before even making contact.

However, just as that devastating giant claw was about to strike,

Itachi Uchiha's figure blurred suddenly like a phantom, then transformed into countless black crows, emitting a noisy cry as they scattered in all directions.

On the other side, a dozen meters away from its original position, Itachi Uchiha's figure quietly appeared, his hands already forming hand seals.

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

Chakra was compressed and transformed in his throat, and then he spat it out! A huge fireball with a diameter far exceeding the norm and an extremely high temperature suddenly appeared and slammed into the center of the flat ground created by the Nine-Tails' chakra pressure—Naruto in his four-tailed form.

Naruto reacted instantly, and another ferocious giant claw made entirely of energy suddenly split off from his outer garment.

"boom!"

The giant claw precisely and firmly grasped the entire massive fireball in its palm! The scorching flames and the raging chakra clashed violently, and in the next moment, the giant claw suddenly clenched its five fingers!

Bang!

The fireball was easily crushed and extinguished, turning into scattered sparks and thick smoke that quickly dissipated into the air.

And in that instant when the billowing smoke and dust obscured our vision.

call out!call out!

Two figures darted out from both sides of the dust cloud! Two identical Uchiha Itachi, wielding kunai, rushed straight for Naruto's vital points, attempting to use the clones as a feint to subdue him in close combat!

Naruto suddenly raised his arms, which had completely transformed into crimson claws, and with perfect precision, he grabbed the necks of the two "Uchiha Itachi"!

The next second, the two "weasels" he had grabbed vanished like bubbles with a "poof," revealing themselves to be shadow clones used to lure him out.

The next moment, another Itachi Uchiha suddenly appeared from the dust in front of Naruto! The kunai in his hand pierced straight at Naruto's chakra cloak.

Ding—Click!

However, the expected sensation of the kunai piercing flesh did not come. The moment the metallic tip of the kunai touched the boiling crimson chakra, it emitted a piercing, teeth-grinding sound, as if it had encountered an extremely hot branding iron!

The kunai's blade turned bright red and softened rapidly before the naked eye could see, eventually being dissolved and vaporized by the violent energy.

"What?!" Itachi Uchiha's expression changed drastically.

The next moment, the small Nine-Tails in front of Itachi opened its mouth again, and a crimson energy ball was condensing at an astonishing speed.

The aura of destruction locked onto her once again!

"boom--!!!"

The second Tailed Beast Chakra Cannon erupted at point-blank range! The crimson torrent of destruction instantly engulfed the area where Itachi Uchiha had just stood, triggering an even more violent explosion than before!

Rumble——!

Dust and gravel mixed with evaporated soil shot into the sky dozens of meters high, and a blinding red light dyed half the sky an ominous color.

However, when the smoke and dust cleared up, the center of the explosion was empty except for an even deeper and more terrifying crater.

As expected... was this also a pre-arranged shadow clone or substitution technique?

Four-Tails Naruto scanned the empty, scorched crater, a sense of understanding flashing through his mind.

Uchiha Itachi's true form appeared silently behind a charred tree stump a few dozen meters away, leaning against the rough trunk with one hand, breathing heavily, his heart filled with unprecedented surprise and confusion.

What exactly is going on? The Nine-Tails has undoubtedly gone berserk; the pure and violent tailed beast chakra cannot be faked.

But...why? Why didn't the rampaging tailed beast harm Satsuki, who was right next to it and completely unprepared? In fact...it even seemed to be protecting her?

This completely contradicted her understanding of tailed beasts! Doubt gripped her thoughts.

However, the fact that Zuoyue was temporarily safe allowed her to relax for a moment. But this relaxation was immediately replaced by greater anxiety—she dared not gamble!

She dared not gamble on whether the Jinchuriki before her had refrained from harming her solely out of a last vestige of instinct towards Satsuki. If this Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in his current state were to charge towards Konoha at any moment… that would be a far more terrifying catastrophe than the Uchiha coup!

We must stop him! Right here!

"Shisui..."

She subconsciously whispered that name, the one who had entrusted all his will and hope to her.

She must fulfill Shisui's "last wish," protect the village, and uphold the name of the Uchiha!

Taking a deep breath, Itachi Uchiha's three-tomoe Sharingan began to spin rapidly, eventually transforming into a kaleidoscope pattern!

We must act swiftly and decisively! We must subdue him in one fell swoop!

Her figure transformed into a swift shadow once more, charging headlong towards the small nine-tailed fox exuding overwhelming ferocity! The kaleidoscope pattern in her eyes suddenly focused!

Just as Naruto noticed her movement, raised his crimson giant claw, and was about to strike—

Tsukuyomi!

Eye Technique, activate!

Om-!

Naruto felt the world spin around him in an instant; the acrid smell of the surrounding forest, the violent energy of the tailed beast's chakra, and even the sensation of touch on his body all vanished in an instant.

When his "vision" returned to clarity, he found himself standing in a bizarre space that was empty, dark, and composed only of black, white, and red.

Looking down, the reassuring crimson chakra cloak covering his body had disappeared, his limbs had returned to normal, and he had become the ordinary Naruto Uzumaki again.

Before him stood Itachi Uchiha, gripping her cold, short sword, walking towards him step by step with an expressionless face.

"A genjutsu?" Naruto immediately realized his predicament.

"Nine-Tails." Itachi Uchiha's voice echoed in this space, "In this Tsukuyomi world where I control everything—time, space, and mass—how long can you... last?"

She raised the dagger in her hand.

"For the next 72 hours, I will use this knife to pierce your body without stopping."

"Don't try to resist anymore, all of this... is a 'reality' that was destined to happen."

Itachi Uchiha raised her short sword, the blade pointed at Naruto's chest. This was the fastest way she could think of to resolve the immediate crisis.

If the Jinchuriki's mental will is completely destroyed, causing them to collapse, then the Tailed Beast transformation in the outside world will naturally be lifted.

This guy... is definitely a lunatic...

Faced with Itachi's calm yet chilling declaration, even knowing it was just an illusion, Naruto couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

He had no doubt that a guy capable of doing that to his loved ones would absolutely carry out those 72 hours of torture without any mercy.

Just before the short sword was about to pierce and touch Naruto's "skin"—

"Hey, you brat from the Uchiha clan."

A deep, resonant, and enormous voice boomed through the Tsukuyomi space constructed from eye power!

Itachi's movements suddenly froze, and he looked up in astonishment.

Behind Naruto, an enormous, sky-covering shadow slowly emerged! Its massive body resembled an orange-red mountain.

"What...do you intend to do to my men?"

The Nine-Tails' voice was filled with undisguised anger and absolute protectiveness, its enormous beast eyes like two blood moons, fixedly locked onto Uchiha Itachi below.

next moment--

boom! ! !

The incomparably violent Nine-Tails chakra, like a flood bursting its banks, surged wildly from Naruto's center, encroaching upon the entire black, white, and red Tsukuyomi space!

"Well!"

In the real world, Itachi Uchiha suddenly let out a muffled groan, his body involuntarily taking half a step back. A sharp, needle-like pain shot through his eyes, and his vision even blurred for a moment.

As she forced herself to steady herself and looked ahead again, her heart sank—the dazed look in the eyes of the small Nine-Tails, enveloped in crimson chakra, vanished instantly, replaced by its cold and clear light.

Naruto's inner world.

"Thanks, Kurama! You've been a huge help!" Naruto breathed a sigh of relief and expressed his heartfelt gratitude. For a moment just now, he had genuinely panicked.

"Hmph! Don't get too cocky!" Nine-Tails awkwardly turned its head away, but its tail swayed slightly involuntarily. "I was just doing it on a whim! Who told you to be so useless, actually getting controlled by an illusion of that level!"

“I see… But Kurama, you just said… ‘my people’? What does that mean…”

"That...that was a slip of the tongue! It was definitely a slip of the tongue!" Nine-Tails bristled as if its tail had been stepped on, trying to cover its embarrassment with a roar. "Who told you to be so weak! I just misspoke in a moment of panic! Don't get any ideas!"

Its original intention was indeed to lend Naruto chakra so he could escape the dangerous Uchiha clan. But just now, when it directly collided with those Mangekyou Sharingan eyes,

It clearly sensed that although the aura of these eyes was the same as that of Uchiha Madara, who controlled it back then, and was repulsive, the "quality" and "quantity" of its pupil power were worlds apart from that guy's.

The fear dissipated considerably, replaced by a provoked annoyance.

"Forget about those trivial matters!" Kurama forcefully changed the subject. "Go! Let's teach that arrogant Uchiha brat outside a lesson!"

"I could clearly sense that what she just showed you was undisguised malice! Give her a lesson she'll never forget!"

Chapter 100 Victory

"Whoaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

A roar erupted once more from the small Nine-Tails' mouth, shaking the surrounding air! The Four-Tails Naruto suddenly raised a giant crimson claw and slammed it into the ground in front of him with terrifying earth-shaking power!

Boom! ! !

The earth let out a mournful cry of unbearable pressure! Centered on the point of claw strike, a terrifying ripple, visible to the naked eye and a mixture of violent chakra and a tangible shockwave, surged like a tsunami towards Uchiha Itachi, who was covering his eyes, trying to alleviate the excruciating pain and blurred vision caused by the backlash of Tsukuyomi!

Uchiha Itachi's vision blurred, but her dangerous intuition instantly sensed a deadly threat approaching! She endured the stinging pain in her eyes and the double vision, gritted her teeth, unleashed a burst of chakra, and leaped backward at lightning speed!

call out!

However, in that very instant when she was in mid-air, with nowhere to grab onto—

puff!

A ferocious claw made entirely of crimson chakra burst forth from the ground beneath her without warning!

Chakra claws grabbed Itachi Uchiha's calf before he could fully dodge!

"!?!" Itachi's expression suddenly changed drastically!

The next moment, an irresistible and extremely violent force suddenly came from the claw!

"Ugh—!"

Uchiha Itachi felt a dizzying sensation as the giant claw swung him around and slammed him hard into the solid ground below at an astonishing speed!

boom! ! ! !

A heavy, thud that made your teeth ache rang out! Her body slammed violently into the ground without any cushioning! The immense impact felt as if her internal organs had shifted, and she felt a sweet taste in her throat. She couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of bright red blood, which splattered onto the scorched ground.

However, Naruto, the Four-Tails, didn't seem to intend to smash her into a pulp. After delivering a devastating blow, he swung his claws and hurled Itachi Uchiha, who was temporarily unable to resist due to the intense pain and impact, into the still intact woodland in the distance.

Whoosh—bang!

Itachi Uchiha's body traced an arc before crashing heavily among the trees, breaking several branches before finally coming to a stop.

Despite the excruciating pain that felt like his body was falling apart and the churning discomfort of his internal organs, Itachi struggled to get up from the ground.

Blood kept spilling from the corner of her mouth, dripping onto the broken fallen leaves.
