Chapter 278 The Nine-Tail Becomes Smaller

"I'll try."

Lu Li walked to Naruto and found that Naruto's Nine-Tailed Fox problem was really troublesome.

Unlike Sasuke, who just stayed at Konoha for too long and didn't make any progress, Naruto really learned nothing in Konoha Ninja School. It's not that he is stupid, but that the Nine-Tails often makes trouble.

Not only did it not lend Naruto chakra, it also disrupted the flow of Naruto's chakra when he was releasing ninjutsu. Lu Li felt that it needed to be taught a lesson.

"What do you know about Jinchuriki? Don't hurt Naruto."

Kushina said warily when she saw that Naruto looked like he was going to force himself on her.

"I don't understand Jinchuriki, but I have slashed several of them."

Lu Li said, let me try to dispel the Nine-Tailed Fox's arrogance.

As he said this, he sat down cross-legged under Naruto's puzzled gaze and placed one hand on Naruto's belly.

There were many sealing techniques in the forbidden technique scroll he got, but he didn't learn any of them. His Mangekyo was now being upgraded by Orochimaru. He also didn't have the eye power to subdue the Nine-Tails, but he had other ways to enter Naruto's spiritual world.

When it comes to the spiritual realm of the soul, the system of the God of Death is very well developed. Lu Li used a method similar to communicating with his Zanpakuto to enter Naruto's spiritual world.

Looking at the dark red room and the huge iron fence in front of him, Lu Li knew that he had succeeded. Under his guidance, Naruto also entered the state of inner vision and was standing beside Lu Li in a daze.

"Wow - what a big fox!"

Naruto is a child at heart, and the first thing he felt was excitement when he saw the huge fox sleeping behind the iron fence.

Kyuubi turned sideways and opened one eye, "Little brat, stop making noise and disturbing my sleep."

"Kyuubi, you are very calm."

Lu Li walked to the iron fence and observed the huge Nine-Tailed Fox. If he used his reconnaissance skills, he could only see a row of question marks, because as a collection of chakras, the Nine-Tailed Fox's spiritual attributes were obviously very high.

What needs to be explained here is that chakra affects mental attributes, but mental attributes cannot directly represent resistance to abnormal conditions. For example, the Nine-Tail has very high attributes, but it will be restrained by the power of the Mangekyo.

Although Lu Li's attributes are lower than Kyuubi's, he is immune to many illusions because of his Chengxin bloodline.

"Boy, don't think you are invincible just because you have conquered Konoha. Among the strong men I have seen, you are nothing."

Jiuwei yawned, stood up from the cage, and looked down at Lu Li.

Once it stood up, its huge body cast a shadow, and the pressure made little Naruto tremble with fear, and he no longer had the initial excitement.

"Naruto, don't be afraid, it's just a bigger fox, and it looks pretty cute."

Lu Li touched Naruto's head, and his words made the Nine-Tails very angry.

"Cute!? How dare you talk to me like that? Boy, I will eat you!"

The Nine-Tailed Fox looked very angry, but there was not much murderous intent in its eyes.

"Let's talk. I don't ask you to help Naruto and give him some chakra, but at least don't mess with him when he releases his ninjutsu."

Lu Li tried to negotiate.

"if not?"

Kyuubi said jokingly.

Lu Li sighed, "I've known for a long time that you're a tough guy, and I don't have the charisma to negotiate, but luckily I know other ways to negotiate."

As he said this, he walked to the cage. Since the prisoner is essentially a soul-related Zanpakuto, it can also manifest here.

Lu Li's spirit body can be linked with the equipment of the main body, and the effect can be triggered when damage is caused, so he decided to make Jiuwei more talkable.

Then, under the vigilant gaze of the Nine-Tailed Fox, Lu Li slashed with his sword, and the sword energy slashed vertically into the gap in the cage, and immediately blood flowers condensed from chakra appeared.

Not only that, the red chakra extended along the demon prisoner to Lu Li's body, and then turned into a line and transmitted to the Soul Eater Ring of Lu Li's body in the outside world.

"Boy! What did you do to me!?"

The Nine-Tailed Fox was furious, not only because Lu Li had injured it, but also because Lu Li had somehow stolen its chakra.

Although these chakras were a drop in the bucket for it, it still had a bad feeling when it saw the smile on the man's face.

Sure enough, Lu Li did not explain, but just continued to strike with his sword, using the power of the sword to pull the Nine-Tailed Fox to the front of the cage. A huge suction force was generated outside the seal, rapidly devouring the Nine-Tailed Fox's energy.

At this moment, the Soul Eater Ring on Lu Li's finger in the outside world began to vibrate, as if it was extremely comfortable.

There seemed to be a spiritual voice inside conveying a sense of consciousness, 'More, more!'

Lu Li naturally wanted to satisfy his desire for growth equipment, and he absorbed the energy of the Nine-Tailed Fox mercilessly. After about half an hour, the Nine-Tailed Fox's cursing became quieter, and even the occasional sound became less rough.

After absorbing the Nine-Tails' chakra, Lu Li sighed in his heart, why should he catch other tailed beasts? The Nine-Tails alone was enough for him to absorb, and it directly maxed out his Soul Eater's growth.

Not only has he broken through the epic level, but he is also only 10% away from the dark gold level. Considering that the Nine-Tailed Fox's energy should recover quickly, he will have a chance to reach the dark gold level if he absorbs it again.

But at the moment, the Nine-Tailed Fox in front of him... has become very small.

Because it was not in its natural state, the Nine-Tailed Fox's chakra in the seal was not truly infinite. After being devoured by Lu Li's Soul Eater Ring, it directly became smaller.

The result was that what appeared in front of Lu Li and Naruto was a young fox that was only a few meters long. It looked furry and quite cute.

"Boy, how dare you do this to me? I will definitely eat you when I get out!"

The little nine-tailed fox was very embarrassed, but without its huge body and with a softer voice, the way it yelled seemed a bit cute, like a little fox with a baby voice.

"Wow, what a cute fox. Is this the Nine-Tailed Fox in me? Everyone says it's a demon fox, but I don't think it looks that bad."

Naruto was excited watching the little Ninetales from the cage.

Lu Li's mouth twitched when he heard Naruto's words, and he thought to himself, didn't you hear it say it wanted to eat me?

But he ignored these details. Anyway, it was a good thing for Naruto to have a good relationship with the Nine-Tails, so that he could control chakra when he was not around. "Little brat, stay away from me, and don't call me cute!"

The Nine-Tailed Fox was very annoyed. It had lived for so many years and was a powerful figure in the ninja world. Everyone was afraid of it. Except for the fact that the old man Six Paths might have commented on it like that when it was just born, how could it have ever heard an ordinary ninja say this?
And it was a young child, which made the fox feel completely ashamed.

But... inexplicably, it felt a bit indescribable.

"It's hard to eat me, but if you want to defeat me, I'll give you a chance."

Lu Li stood in front of the Nine-Tails and grinned, "If you and Naruto work together to defeat me, wouldn't that also be considered a victory?"

Kyuubi snorted, "Don't take me for a fool, kid. I won't help this brat."

"Then there's nothing I can do. If you continue to make trouble after you recover, I'll have to come and educate you every once in a while."

Lu Li looked helpless, which made Jiuwei even more angry.

After doing all this, he took Naruto out of the spiritual world. Before leaving, Naruto waved and said hello to the Nine-Tails, "Little fox, don't make trouble."

The sealed world fell into silence again, leaving only the Nine-Tailed Fox's cold snort.

After returning to the real world, Lu Li felt the gazes of the Minato couple, "It's done. For now, the Nine-Tailed Fox won't interfere with him. We'll deal with it if there's any problem later."

He was just suppressing the Nine-Tailed Fox's arrogance, playing the good guy, and giving Naruto the opportunity to play the bad guy in the future.

Although the Nine-Tailed Fox is very rebellious, it is not a masochist. After this battle, it will probably be well behaved for a long time. After all, having its energy sucked away by the Soul Eater is secondary. The Nine-Tailed Fox will most likely not want to become the childish and shameful appearance of 'Little Nine-Tailed Fox' again.

"It's that simple?"

Uzumaki Kushina said suspiciously, she put her hand on Naruto's stomach to sense the Nine-Tails' chakra, but found that for some reason the Nine-Tails' chakra became barely visible.

"It's that simple..."

Lu Li was just about to talk about what had just happened inside, but he saw a ninja cat jumping out of the jungle and running to his side. This was a common summoning beast of the Uchiha family.

He took the scroll that the ninja cat was holding, glanced at it, stood up and said, "You guys stay in the Land of Fields to teach Naruto. I have to go out for something."

The news came from Uchiha Fugaku, saying that the meeting of the five major countries has preliminarily passed a resolution to deal with the Akatsuki organization, and is currently organizing a ninja coalition to go to the Rain Country to eradicate the Akatsuki organization.

It goes without saying that the exposure of the location of the Rain Country was the work of explorers. Now the five major ninja villages have made up their minds and are ready to send their strongest forces to attack the Akatsuki organization. Lu Li feels that if he doesn't go there, he will miss a lot.

Nagato didn't urge himself this month. Presumably, since Obito hadn't shown up yet, he hadn't been able to fulfill his promise, so he didn't urge Lu Li to go to the Rain Country.

After Lu Li said hello to Orochimaru, he set off to the west, preparing to meet with Nagato first to discuss how to deal with Obito.

…………

In the Iron Kingdom, in a hidden forest, the space twisted and a figure fell onto the grass.

Obito awkwardly raised his upper body from the ground. Oh, he was left with only his upper body.

A month ago, he nearly died at Lu Li's hands, but after he returned to the alien space, he survived thanks to the powerful vitality of his first-generation cells.

What made him extremely embarrassed and annoyed was that it was said that a good ninja would not be hit by the same move a second time, but he was hit by Itachi's Tsukuyomi again.

What made him even more unbearable was that he saw the same content in Itachi's Moon Reading as last time...

Fortunately, he didn't have to change his pants this time because all three legs were gone.

After the battle in Konoha calmed down, he found an opportunity to escape, and after traveling all the way, he finally arrived at this meeting point in the Land of Iron.

"Absolutely!"

Obito was in a very bad mood, and even took some of his anger out on Zetsu, "Did you bring my legs?"

Jue's figure emerged from the side. In addition to the fusion of black and white Jue, there was also a white Jue with a dull face.

"Don't be so angry, it's just a lost leg, I'll help you connect it right away."

Zetsu tried to comfort Obito, but it only made Obito even angrier.

"Is this about having no legs...I..."

Obito thought that he had lost his third leg, and even if White Zetsu was better at catching, it couldn't make up for the existence of his third leg.

But he couldn't say it out loud, and could only comfort himself in his heart that he would not need that thing at all. Anyway, when the time came, he would use the Infinite Tsukuyomi to build a new world, and he would be able to live in Youlin's world.

Zetsu walked forward, checking Obito's injuries, thinking about how to use White Zetsu to help Obito recover, while reporting the latest situation, "Compared to your injuries, we have bigger troubles now. Nagato no longer trusts us."

"Just because of Lu Li?"

Obito frowned. He hated Lu Li so much at this moment. If it weren't for Lu Li, this guy with a lot of unexpectedness, he should still be running the Akatsuki organization smoothly.

And he still couldn't figure out why Uchiha Itachi turned into Lin's appearance. It was as if he was cooperating with Lu Li, predicted his attack, and tricked him.

"Who else could it be? That guy is very eloquent. Nagato was originally going to hold him responsible, but he turned the tables and threw all the dirty water on you."

Zetsu explained the situation, "Now Nagato doesn't even trust me. He asked me to report to the Rain Country before, but I didn't dare to go. I feel like he wants to get rid of me too."

After hearing what Zetsu said, Obito was almost worried to death. He was not Uchiha Madara at all. If he didn't rely on the power of Nagato and Akatsuki, how could he stir up the ninja world?

"Is there no good news?"

Obito inquired.

"Yes, the five great nations are going to attack the Rain Country now. We can make this happen."

Jue smiled sinisterly.

"Oh?"

Obito's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he felt that he still had a chance to turn the tables.
