Chapter 102: The Black Coffin
As soon as the Wind Style Rasenshuriken appeared, a violent buzzing sound suddenly rang out. It was piercing and painful.
Then countless whirlwinds struck, blowing against everyone. White light flickered in Naruto's palm as the Rasenshuriken spun slowly. It was very eye-catching.
After the Rasenshuriken was formed, Naruto lifted it up and jumped. He stepped into the air holding the technique. He looked down at the calm lake, moved his palm, and swung hard. The Rasenshuriken flew through the air toward the lake.
The next moment, the terrifying Rasenshuriken struck the water. The power of the Rasenshuriken exploded. The huge lake suddenly churned because of its terrifying force. The originally calm water was stirred up, forming a massive whirlpool. The entire lake spun, creating a spectacular waterspout.
As the lake surface was churned up by the Rasenshuriken, everyone heard a loud bang. From the depths of the lake, a massive wave burst out. A colossal creature jumped out from the bottom and appeared before everyone.
That gigantic monster was shaped like a turtle. It had a steel-like shell and three tails swinging violently behind it.
This monster was the Three-Tails.
Because the entire lake had been stirred up by the Rasenshuriken, the Three-Tails finally couldn't stand it at the bottom. It had been forced to surface.
As soon as the Three-Tails appeared, it roared angrily. Its blood-red eyes glared at Naruto and the Konoha group as it roared fiercely:
"Damn humans! Why are you disturbing my peace?"
Seeing the Three-Tails, Sakura, Hinata, and Kurenai all showed shock on their faces. It was the first time they had ever seen a tailed beast. It was the first time they had experienced how huge and terrifying a tailed beast truly was.
Facing the Three-Tails' roar, Naruto looked at it without fear and said:
"Three-Tails, you shouldn't be here. Someone has already discovered this place. If you stay here, you'll be captured sooner or later. Why don't you come with me first? Once the ninja world settles down, I'll set you free."
The Three-Tails didn't listen to Naruto at all. It didn't trust him either. After hearing his words, it roared angrily a few times:
"Stop lying! You humans are all liars! You all just want the power of the tailed beasts! Get out of here and leave me alone! Otherwise, I'll kill you!"
Hearing the Three-Tails' hostile words, Naruto frowned. Since being soft wasn't working, he had no choice but to be tough.
Then Naruto took a deep breath. His eyes flashed silver. He raised his palm and chanted softly:
"A muddy coat of arms reveals faintly, unruly and arrogant talents. Tide, negation, paralysis, a moment, hinders eternal sleep. The crawling iron princess, the clay doll that keeps mutilating itself. Combine, bounce, extend to the ground, and know your own powerlessness."
"Hadō #90: Black Coffin."
The words fell.
A huge black coffin suddenly appeared out of thin air and fell from the sky. The black coffin was enormous—tens of meters tall. After landing, it instantly covered the Three-Tails' massive body.
Then everyone felt countless terrifying forces inside the black coffin scurrying wildly. It was as if countless forces were exploding and destroying something. The chakra contained within was terrifying. It made people feel afraid.
The black coffin enveloped the Three-Tails for a while. After the terrifying power had been fully unleashed, the black coffin suddenly shattered and gradually disappeared.
Only then did everyone see the Three-Tails after being hit by the Black Coffin.
The Three-Tails was now covered in blood. Its body was bruised and covered with large and small wounds. Its massive body was extremely weak and had lost its combat power. It crashed into the water with a loud bang, sending up a wave of spray.
Hadō #90 had killed the Three-Tails in one shot.
Everyone's eyes were wide open, full of disbelief. They hadn't expected Naruto's strength to be so terrifying. The Three-Tails was completely powerless against him. It couldn't even fight back.
This was Hadō #90, chanted fully by Naruto. Its power was even more terrifying than the Wind Style Rasenshuriken.
The Three-Tails looked at Naruto in shock. Its blood-red pupils were full of surprise and disbelief. After being hit by Hadō #90 Black Coffin, it knew how terrible that attack was. Inside the black coffin, it had felt as if countless terrifying forces were bombing it. Every bombing was unbearable. By the end, it was already covered in wounds. All its chakra had almost been blown away. Its body was weak and hurt so much it couldn't move.
It was hard for the Three-Tails to imagine that a human could have such terrifying power—that a ninja could fight against a tailed beast. This terrifying power reminded it of the Sage of Six Paths from long ago. It made the Three-Tails tremble.
Who was this kid?
The Three-Tails stared at Naruto with wide eyes.
After seeing that the Three-Tails had been weakened by the Black Coffin and had calmed down, Naruto stepped forward. He walked up to the Three-Tails, stared at it, and said lightly:
"Now, will you come with me?"
The Three-Tails had nothing to say anymore. It could only look helplessly at Naruto, its eyes full of shock.
Seeing this, Naruto stopped talking and began preparing to seal the Three-Tails.
"Terumi Mei."
Naruto called softly. Terumi Mei knew what he meant. Her beautiful eyes flickered with shock. She quickly snapped out of it and came to Naruto's side.
Then Naruto used his Kidō power to separate the Three-Tails' chakra. He planned to seal most of it inside Terumi Mei's body while keeping a part for himself.
He had thought about this for a long time. The tailed beasts' chakra was useful. He needed to collect tailed beasts. He had started this back in Konoha. When fighting Gaara, Naruto had already taken part of Shukaku's chakra. Add the Nine-Tails inside his body plus the Three-Tails he was about to seal, and Naruto would have the power of three tailed beasts inside him. That was terrifying.
But just as Naruto was about to seal the Three-Tails, something unexpected happened.
The Three-Tails' chakra actually resisted going into Terumi Mei. Instead, it actively flowed into Naruto's body. The massive tailed beast chakra poured in continuously like an ocean. Soon all of it had been poured into Naruto's body.
Naruto got all the Three-Tails' chakra.
After the chakra was poured into Naruto's body, the Three-Tails' voice sounded in his mind:
"Kid, I want to stay with you. Since you defeated me, you should be my Jinchuriki."
Hearing this voice, Naruto was stunned. He looked at Terumi Mei dumbfounded.
At that moment, Terumi Mei hadn't reacted at all. She hadn't expected this situation either. She could tell that Naruto hadn't absorbed the Three-Tails on purpose. The chakra had run into Naruto on its own.
For a moment, Terumi Mei's beautiful eyes looked at Naruto in astonishment. They were full of disbelief. She didn't know what to say.
The two looked at each other in complete silence.
