Chapter 142: The Nine - Tailed Fox's Surrogacy, It's Worth It
The Nine - Tailed Fox turned to look and saw that Yue Yan's claw that had transformed into a Thunder Beast was firmly pressing on the table.
"Don't go all Hulk and flip the table. This round hasn't been settled yet. The two bombs of the Nine - Tailed Fox earlier, plus the two bombs of Sister Kushina, result in a sixteen - fold multiplier. Both of you have to stick forty - eight strips of paper each."
"You!"
The finger of the Nine - Tailed Fox pointing at Yue Yan was trembling.
"Yue Yan! I misjudged you. I thought you were my bosom friend, but I find you're just a fair - weather friend!"
"Don't say that."
Yue Yan smiled and condensed forty - eight strips of paper with his spiritual power.
"Even between brothers, business is business. Don't be a crybaby if you lose, all right?"
In the end, Yue Yan stuck forty - eight strips of paper on both Kushina and the Nine - Tailed Fox.
Seeing this, Kushina and the Nine - Tailed Fox exchanged glances, snorted in unison, and turned away. They were even angrier now and were determined to win back.
Just as they were thinking this, Kushina suddenly sensed something. She subconsciously bent over and covered her belly, and then her spiritual form disappeared from the sealed space.
Seeing this, Yue Yan and Minato Namikaze exchanged glances and then left the sealed space, leaving the Nine - Tailed Fox covered in white strips of paper, glaring angrily at the empty card table.
Outside the sealed space, Biwako Sarutobi noticed Kushina's movement and quickly stepped forward. She guided Kushina to feel the baby in her belly and then push.
Beside them, Minato Namikaze stepped forward anxiously and stood by Kushina's side, concerned.
"Kushina, take a deep breath and then push!"
"I'm pushing!"
Kushina exerted all her strength, but every time, the intense pain made her stop.
"No, it hurts so much."
"It's okay, Kushina. Take it one step at a time. Follow my guidance and take a deep breath."
"Huff - puff~~~ Huff - puff~~~"
"Right, just like that. Push."
"Ugh! ... It hurts!"
Seeing Kushina in so much pain, Minato Namikaze held her hand and kept comforting her.
"Kushina, it'll be okay. Trust me."
"You're the root of all evil!"
Kushina grabbed the yellow hair on Minato Namikaze's head and pulled hard.
"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in so much pain!"
"Ouch! It hurts! Kushina, you're going to pull me bald."
"I don't care!"
The human body experiences twelve levels of pain. If the pain of a mosquito bite is level one, then the pain of childbirth is the highest, level twelve. Let's not get into the tricky question of whether the pain would reach level thirteen if one is bitten by a mosquito during childbirth. Even for ninjas, this kind of pain is unbearable.
Looking at Kushina, who was in so much pain that she was sweating profusely, Yue Yan beside her tilted his head. His somewhat crazy thoughts made him wonder. Which was more painful: the pain of having his whole body dissolved by acid rain when he was learning Senji in the Bone Forest, or the pain of childbirth?
But as he thought about it, Yue Yan shook his head. Childbirth was the highest level of pain a human body could experience, while being dissolved by acid rain and then recovering was beyond what a human could bear. Not only was it physical pain, but the feeling of watching himself slowly dissolve into pus also put an unbearable psychological pressure on him.
"So... how did I endure it back then? Am I still considered human now?"
Right after muttering to himself, Yue Yan wished he could slap himself. What was he thinking about at this time? The most important thing right now, of course, was... to get revenge.
After all, Yue Yan hadn't forgotten how the Nine - Tailed Fox had mocked him for being a bridesmaid before.
Yue Yan: Holding a grudge emoji
He suppressed the smile on his lips and walked over to Kushina.
"Sister Kushina, I have a way to make you not feel the pain, but first, you have to let go of Senior Brother Minato Namikaze."
Hearing this, Kushina's eyes lit up, and she subconsciously let go of the hand that was tugging on Minato's hair.
"Yue Yan, what's your idea?"
Hearing this, Yue Yan nodded to Minato, who was looking at him gratefully, and then told his plan.
"Can't the Nine - Tailed Fox control your body? Just let it take over your body."
"That's a good idea."
Kushina immersed her consciousness in the sealed space and forcefully pushed out the Nine - Tailed Fox, which was still angry.
The Nine - Tailed Fox that had taken over Kushina's body blinked blankly and then felt a sharp pain, causing the wild chakra belonging to it around to escape and rage.
"Damn it! You stupid woman! You actually want me to help you have a baby!"
The Nine - Tailed Fox roared and tried to send its consciousness back. However, Kushina, who didn't want to experience the pain of childbirth again, wouldn't let the Nine - Tailed Fox go back. She even used sealing ninjutsu to temporarily cut off the Nine - Tailed Fox's ability to return.
The Nine - Tailed Fox, which couldn't go back, was suffering the pain of childbirth. Even it found it a bit hard to bear. What it couldn't accept even more was that it considered itself a male fox. How could a male fox give birth?
"Damn it! Kushina! Let me go back quickly!"
"Fox, you've been living inside me for so long. Just help me give birth to the baby. Consider it the rent for all these years."
"Rent my ass! No one asked for my consent when they locked me in. Now you're asking for rent! Get me out of here right now!"
After the Nine - Tailed Fox roared these words, it found that Kushina refused to accept its voice communication. This really infuriated it, and the Nine - Tailed Fox started swearing like crazy.
Biwako Sarutobi, who was startled by the chakra leaking from the Nine - Tailed Fox just now, finally came to her senses. Feeling the chakra full of endless Malice all around, cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She looked at Minato Namikaze beside her.
"Minato Namikaze! There's a breach in the seal! Go and call the Sealing Team right away!"
Seeing her so anxious, Minato Namikaze, who had just learned about the plan to make the Nine - Tailed Fox a jinchūriki from Yue Yan, had a very strange expression, but he didn't forget to reply to Biwako Sarutobi.
"It's okay, Lady Biwako. We've got it under control."
Seeing that Minato Namikaze was very confident in his words, Biwako still had some doubts, but she temporarily believed him and began to guide Kushina to give birth again. However, she didn't know that the one lying here now was not Kushina, but the Nine - Tailed Fox.
"Kushina, calm down."
"Calm the hell down..."
Just as the Nine - Tailed Fox was about to curse, Minato Namikaze covered its mouth and comforted it, "Nine - Tailed Fox, the most important thing now is to give birth to the child first."
Seeing Minato Namikaze coming to it, the Nine - Tailed Fox didn't hold back and started scolding directly.
However, Minato Namikaze just persuaded it kindly and didn't get angry. He couldn't get angry either, after all, the fox was helping his wife give birth.
Now it's like when the legal wife can't handle it, the mistress has to step in.
Well, this saying sounds odd, but it's true.
On the side of the Nine - Tailed Fox, after finding that it couldn't go back no matter what, it helplessly began to help Kushina give birth.
I don't know how much time had passed. With a painful roar from the Nine - Tailed Fox, Naruto was born smoothly.
Looking at the child with fox - like whisker - shaped marks on his face, the Nine - Tailed Fox, which was already exhausted, fell silent. Looking at this child, it felt strange inside.
"Is this the child Korega gave birth to..."
Just as the Nine - Tailed Fox was talking to itself, there was a sudden loud noise from the outside barrier.
Seeing this scene, everyone present looked solemn.
After exchanging glances with Minato Namikaze, Yue Yan took the initiative to speak.
"Senior Brother Minato Namikaze, I'll go out and have a look."
After saying that, Yue Yan left.
