Chapter 144 - 144 (2/2)

When Ryo turned his attention to Kushina's side, he found that her battle was also one sided.

This time, Kushina didn't use the Biju Mode, but instead fought in tailed coat mode, while the Gobi was in full Biju mode.

However, Kushina already had 8 tails out. Her Chakra was already several times more than that of Han.

In that state, she was in version two, and didn't keep her human appearance. Her whole body was blood red, and two Fox ears appeared upon her head, while her hands also turned into claws.

If it wasn't for her sneer from time to time, Ryo would have doubted that she had been overtaken by Kurama.

On the other side, Minato could no longer look away after seeing Kushina.

While she was manhandling the Gobi, Minato was still looking worried.

As for Kushina, she was complaining to Kuruma.

”Oy, Kuruma! I'm a girl! How could you do this! This eight-tailed look is ugly!”

”Hey! Do you know how many people tried to use my power without me allowing them?!” Kurama said proudly as he licked his tail.

”I don't care; I just want to finish this guy already so I could look normal again.”

Kushina was acting like a rascal, but Kurama didn't pay any attention to that.

It was because of his memories from the Ryumyaku's incident, the ones that Minato's seal wasn't able to suppress.

He already knew that there were some people who are bound to come, seeking to control Kushina. He had to make Kushina capable of controlling his full strength as soon as possible. He thought, if that was to happen, no one would be able to fully control him, even an Uchiha.

If the Biju and the Jinchuriki become able of working together, their joint strength wouldn't be the simple sum of its parts.

The Kyubi is the most powerful of all Biju. If Kushina was to fully control its power, then she would be able to beat any user of the Susanoo. (Author Note: This is based on the fact that Naruto was able to fight on par with Sasuke's perfect Susanoo, with just one half of Kurama.)

Although she didn't understand why Kurama was so strict with her, Kushina believe that he would never harm her.

She had been working very hard to master his power, and Kurama was very pleased with this. Today's battle is the stage where the result of their hard work shall appear.

If the Kyubi helped her conquer his negative emotions, it would be like helping a student cheat on an exam.

In that case, if someone else would try to f_o_r_c_i_b_l_y control him, she wouldn't be able to do anything.

Kushina, while being a little bit silly, didn't have her mind wrapped on Kurama. She focused on the Gobi, just to end this as soon as possible and leave this state.

The Gobi kept being on the defense. The Kyubi's Chakra was too horrible, and any attempt from him to attack would result in him getting a critical hit.

Kushina became serious. While the Gobi was being beaten, he was really hanging on!

She threw him into the air, and then attacked him before even giving the poor thing a chance to fall.

Seeing that, Minato was relieved, and stopped having doubts about Kushina's chances to win.

Ryo looked away from that fight, and then quickly turned back. His eyes were shining bright, as he just had a new idea: This was a perfect chance to collect the Chakra of two Biju!
