Moroi's eyes widened in horror as he stared at the man before him. His face was full of disbelief.
"You... you are the Nine-Tails' Jinchūriki?"
Kurama's scarlet eyes flickered with amusent as he glanced at Moroi.
"Hey, old man, seems like you've seen this kind of power before."
The Nine-Tails had been sealed inside Uzumaki Mito after the legendary battle between Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara at the Valley of the End. Only a handful of shinobi had ever experienced its true might firsthand.
"But I'm no Jinchūriki."
Moroi stiffened. Not a Jinchūriki?
Was this man lying? If he wasn't a Jinchūriki, then how could he wield the power of the Nine-Tails?
Moroi muttered under his breath, unwilling to believe it. From what he could sense, the power flowing from this man was far greater than what the Gold and Silver horn Brothers, Kinkaku and Ginkaku, had displayed.
Before he could dwell on this revelation, Kurama's expression darkened.
"Tell , what is your Cloud Shinobi unit doing in Konoha?"
Moroi tilted his head to the side, his expression unreadable.
Cloud Shinobi were known for their unyielding spirit. The thought of betraying their comrades was unthinkable.
"Death is preferable to treason."
Kurama chuckled, baring his sharp fangs in a nacing grin.
"Interesting. I enjoy torture the most."
The sinister aura that emanated from Kurama was beyond what any Jinchūriki could possess. It was suffocating, as if an enormous beast was bearing down on Moroi.
He had witnessed the Nine-Tails' wrath firsthand when the Gold and Silver horn Brothers had fought against the beast. The man standing before him exuded that sa terrifying presence.
"You... you're not the Nine-Tails' Jinchūriki, yet you wield its power. What is your connection to the Nine-Tails?"
"Connection?" Kurama smirked.
"I am the Nine-Tails."
The mont Kurama spoke, black seals appeared on Moroi's forehead.
"A-AHHHH—!"
With a piercing scream, Moroi collapsed unconscious.
Kurama smiled, pleased.
"Now... tell , what is the purpose of the other Cloud Shinobi in Konoha?"
Still under the effects of the sealing technique, Moroi murmured groggily, "To steal the Uchiha clan's Sharingan..."
Kurama narrowed his eyes. His sealing technique—The Sealing technique of Torture—was working perfectly.
Unlike traditional physical torture, this technique inflicted ntal agony. Drawing from the sealing arts of the Uzumaki clan, combined with his own exceptional intelligence, Kurama had developed a technique that could crush a person's spirit in re monts.
That brief mont of Moroi suffering? It had felt like centuries of tornt in his mind umm similar to Tsukuyomi i think.
As for the Cloud Shinobi's plan, Kurama had already sensed it earlier. He had detected Uchiha Fugaku's chakra, along with several unfamiliar ones, moving rapidly toward the Land of Lightning.
They were already approaching the border of the Land of Fire.
Kurama hadn't expected Fugaku to be captured.
Should I save him?
He dismissed the thought almost instantly.
Fugaku's fate was of no concern to him.
Kurama had no interest in playing the role of a noble hero. After disposing of the remaining Cloud Shinobi, he returned to Kushina's body.

Shortly after re-entering Kushina's consciousness, Kurama sensed a familiar chakra approaching.
It was none other than Namikaze Minato.
This timing...
Kurama recalled how, in the original tiline, Cloud Shinobi had attempted to kidnap Kushina. Minato had saved her by following the strands of her hair left as a trail.
Could this entire situation have been orchestrated by Konoha's higher-ups?
Kurama conveyed the information about Fugaku's capture to Kushina.
Kushina's eyes widened slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.
"So what?" she said indifferently.
Kurama chuckled. "Aren't you going to save him?"
Kushina scoffed. "Kurama, are you kidding? Why would I save him?"
She still rembered how Mikoto had been troubled by Fugaku's behavior during their academy days. She had no reason to care about what happened to him.
Before they could continue their conversation, there was a loud knock on the door.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Is Kushina-san here?"
It was Minato's voice.
At that mont, Kurama heard a familiar system notification.
---
[Ding! The host is presented with three choices:]
1. Inform Minato about Fugaku's capture and let him handle it.
Reward: Strengthening the bond between Fugaku and Minato.
2. Personally rescue Fugaku.
Reward: One-day experience card for the Three Tomoe Sharingan.
3. Ignore the situation.
Reward: None.]
---
Kurama made his decision almost instantly.
Option 1.
A temporary Sharingan had no appeal to him. He was far more interested in how the bonds between Fugaku and Minato would evolve.
Kurama relayed his decision to Kushina.
Taking a deep breath, Kushina raised her voice.
"Minato, I just got word from the Uchiha clan—Fugaku has been captured by Cloud Shinobi!"
"What?!"
Minato's initial concern had been for Kushina's safety, but now he realized the bigger crisis at hand.
Fugaku, the future head of the Uchiha clan, had been taken?
Kushina feigned urgency. "Minato, you have to go and save him! I'll notify the village."
Minato didn't hesitate. "Understood!"
Without another word, he vanished in a yellow flash.
Kushina sighed in relief, then turned toward Kurama.
" Kurama, why did you have Minato rescue Fugaku? If Fugaku returns, he might annoy Mikoto again."
Kurama chuckled. "Kushina, haven't you noticed that Fugaku has been avoiding Mikoto lately?"
Kushina paused, thinking back to recent days.
It was true.
Mikoto had once been plagued with uncertainty regarding Fugaku. But after Kushina had taught her how to speak with more confidence—thanks to Kurama's influence—Fugaku had stopped seeking her out.
Kushina rembered the gossip among the girls during their recent hot spring visit.
She had even asked Mikoto about it.
Mikoto, however, had been just as confused by Fugaku's sudden change.
But now that Fugaku was no longer troubling her friend, Kushina couldn't care less about his fate.
She crossed her arms and smiled. "Well, that's good for Mikoto then!"
Kurama smirked. "Exactly."
Kushina's carefree attitude had been subtly influenced by her ti with Kurama. She was no longer bound by conventional thinking.
And with Fugaku's rescue now in Minato's hands, the ga had just begun.
