“If you want to learn, I can teach you.”
Namikaze Mirai smiled faintly.
“But I can’t guarantee that you will master it.”
His unique ability was electromagnetic power. Magnetic field therapy, however, could be realized through certain medical devices, although the effect would be much less impressive.
“Tsunade-sama, how are you feeling?”
Shizune, waiting outside, rushed in, looking anxious.
“I’ve never felt this comfortable,” Tsunade stretched, her joints making popping sounds.
“Right now, I just want to have a good night’s sleep.”
The suspicion and distrust in her eyes were completely gone, replaced by a smile.
“At this rate, I feel like with a few more treatments, my hemophobia might really be cured.”
Was Mirai truly a miracle worker? Even a seemingly incurable condition like hemophobia couldn’t stump him.
“In that case, I’ll come back to treat you again tomorrow.”
After a moment of thought, Mirai made his decision.
“Alright.”
Tsunade looked forward to it, already impatient to see herself fully recovered.
In the conference room of Konoha’s camp, the atmosphere was heavy.
Everyone at the table had solemn expressions.
Yamanaka Inoichi, seated at the head, summarized the information gravely.
“Since the last battle, the lines of the Cloud Village have not advanced, and our scouts have not detected their movements.”
The battlefield had fallen into an eerie silence these past days.
Quiet didn’t always mean safety, especially on a battlefield. No one knew what kind of storm might be brewing beneath the calm surface.
The previous two battles had turned the unfavorable situation around because of Namikaze Mirai.
But Cloud Village, possessing two perfect jinchuriki, undoubtedly still had an overwhelming advantage in terms of power.
Jinchuriki were the ultimate weapons of war, and that was not an empty statement. The presence of a tailed beast on the battlefield was terrifying; even a thousand-strong ninja unit would tremble before it.
Last time, Mirai’s powerful deflection of a Tailed Beast Bomb had caused Cloud Ninja’s morale to plummet, forcing a retreat. But the shadow of the two tailed beasts still loomed over Konoha’s camp.
Mirai could deflect one Tailed Beast Bomb, but what about two? Konoha had only one Mirai, while Cloud Village had two tailed beasts!
“Damn it! If we had a jinchuriki, we wouldn’t have to fear them at all!”
A ninja clenched his fists in frustration.
The atmosphere in the tent suddenly became tense!
Many at the table swallowed hard, their eyes filled with fear as they glanced at the blonde figure seated above.
They did have a jinchuriki, the strongest Nine-Tails jinchuriki! But this generation’s jinchuriki was only a three-year-old child, fiercely protected by his uncle, who was present at the meeting!
The ninja who had spoken out realized his mistake, cold sweat breaking out as his hands and feet turned icy.
It was over! What did I just say?! He finally understood the saying “disaster comes from the mouth!”
Mirai, that overprotective and domineering uncle, was right there in the meeting!
“I-I’m sorry! I-I didn’t mean it…”
The ninja stammered, his voice trembling with fear, his whole body cold as if he had fallen into an ice pit.
He felt like a criminal awaiting judgment.
The other Konoha officials exchanged looks, even those familiar with Mirai, like Fugaku, had no intention of speaking up. The ninja’s words had touched a forbidden topic for Mirai!
In this heavy atmosphere, a light laugh broke the oppressive silence.
“Jinchuriki? Leave that to me.”
Everyone at the table finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The ninja who had misspoken felt like he had just walked away from the gates of death, his tense body finally relaxing, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Never speak out of turn again! He mentally noted this lesson deeply.
“With Mirai taking action, we need not fear them.”
Inoichi put an end to this topic.
Continuing the discussion would be meaningless.
“Yes, with Mirai-sama on our side, so what if there are two tailed beasts?”
“The Blue Flash can command the battlefield!”
Such flattering words echoed in the conference room.
The lack of movement from the Cloud Ninja unit created an invisible pressure over Konoha’s camp.
The unknown was the most terrifying, especially when the opponent controlled two tailed beasts!
Most Konoha ninjas sensed that the next assault from Cloud Village, which had revealed its two tailed beasts and prepared for so long, would be the fiercest battle yet!
The cataclysmic power of tailed beasts had left an indelible mark on their hearts. Years ago, they had just survived a tailed beast rampage, with many losing loved ones in that chaos.
Discussions among ninjas gradually shifted to Konoha’s jinchuriki.
Due to Mirai’s pressure, Hiruzen Sarutobi had no choice but to reveal Naruto’s identity.
Naruto, the son of the Fourth Hokage, was also Konoha’s Nine-Tails jinchuriki.
Wouldn’t the situation be less dire if he could wield the Nine-Tails’ power?
Such discussions inevitably started to spread in the camp. But no one dared to talk openly out of fear of Mirai’s authority.
Returning to his tent after the meeting, Mirai found Naruto sitting by the window, looking dejected.
It had been a long time since he’d seen Naruto like this.
“Uncle, am I useless?”
Seeing Mirai approach, Naruto bit his lip, tears glistening in his blue eyes.
“Why would you say that?”
Mirai knelt down, gently stroking Naruto’s hair.
“If I could control the big guy in my belly, no one would get hurt…”
Naruto touched his stomach, feeling deeply guilty and self-blaming as if he had done something wrong.
The camp’s discussions had gradually reached his ears, burning him like fire.
“Naruto, even without the power of the big guy in your belly, Uncle will still win this battle.”
“R-Really?”
Naruto looked up, hope shining in his sapphire eyes.
Mirai gently stroked Naruto’s hair, a soft smile in his eyes.
“Why don’t you come to the battlefield with me this time?”
“Huh?”
Naruto was puzzled.
“Uncle will teach you how to tame a tailed beast.”
The words echoed into the sealed space, causing the Nine-Tails’ fur to stand on end as it instantly went on guard.
It knew that Mirai’s last sentence was directed at it.
At that moment, the Nine-Tails remembered the pain of being beaten by Mirai and the humiliation of being imprisoned in a cage!
Mirai was serious.
The Nine-Tails had seen Mirai in this state before—terrifying! Indescribably terrifying!
Those two unfortunate beasts, the Two-Tails and the Eight-Tails, probably didn’t know what awaited them!
The Nine-Tails shuddered.
Absolutely! Absolutely!
They would suffer terribly!
