The Nine-Tails was currently sealed within Kushina, so Sarutobi Hiruzen used the crystal ball to check on her situation almost every day, and the surveillance by the Anbu was also uninterrupted.
However, as this happened more and more frequently, Ryun could not help but feel dissatisfied. He first used barrier techniques to block the visual signals within the cabin's range, and then even used armed threats to force the Third Hokage's surveillance Anbu to not get too close, so as not to affect their lives.
But such actions naturally quickly caused strong dissatisfaction among Konoha's higher-ups.
"What does he want to do? Does he not know the importance of the Nine-Tails? The Anbu are only ensuring Kushina's safety, and he actually beat them up. This guy goes too far!"
In the Hokage's office, Koharu Utatane loudly voiced her dissatisfaction with Ryun.
Hearing these words, Sarutobi Hiruzen smoked his pipe gloomily, his expression stiff, and did not say anything.
"The surveillance on Kushina cannot stop. Whether for the safety of the seal, or... to prevent him from taking Kushina away, we cannot turn a blind eye to these potential problems..."
Homura Mitokado spoke up at this point.
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a moment, then nodded lightly.
"Assign a few more elite Anbu to monitor, but try not to affect their normal lives. It's best if they don't appear in front of them..." Sarutobi Hiruzen gave the order after a long silence.
"Hiruzen, you are too indulgent towards him... The Nine-Tails container has just been changed, there are too many unstable factors, we cannot let our guard down..."
Koharu Utatane argued loudly. In her opinion, Sarutobi Hiruzen's approach was too weak. She even felt that Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed too apprehensive of that person, or rather, did not dare to truly confront Uchiha Ryun.
"There's no need to worry about that. Since Lady Mito let him inherit the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques, she naturally intended for him to help Kushina stabilize the Nine-Tails. Lady Mito told me before her passing that Ryun is still trustworthy..."
"The Thunder-Fire War, and the smooth transfer of the Nine-Tails, both prove that he means no harm to Konoha... We should be more tolerant of him, and we should trust him..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen put down his pipe and said these two sentences.
The two Hokage advisors fell silent upon hearing this. They might not trust Ryun, but they still trusted Mito Uzumaki.
Actually, they did not want to push Uchiha Ryun too hard either. After all, this person's strength could no longer be suppressed by status or position, so many times they could only helplessly compromise.
Late at night, in the early hours.
Inside the cabin, Kushina suddenly woke up from her sleep, her pretty face pale, and cold sweat soaking through her thin pajamas.
Just as she woke up, a few seconds later, the lights in the room came on, and Ryun's figure quickly appeared by her side.
"Did you have a nightmare again?"
Ryun sat down by her bed and reached out to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead.
His voice was gentle, but his eyes gradually turned cold.
"Is it that restless beast affecting you again?"
Kushina nodded lightly upon hearing this, then skillfully burrowed into his arms.
"Ryun... How about... we sleep together..."
Kushina suddenly blushed and looked at Ryun with eager eyes, suggesting in a small voice.
"..."
Ryun did not give a clear reply upon hearing this, but instead reached out his hand and pulled open her pajamas...
"What... what are you doing... We'll just sleep... just lie together, but no funny business..."
Kushina grabbed Ryun's hand that was lifting her clothes, her face blushing as she stammered.
In her opinion, Ryun was too impatient. The lights weren't even off, and he was already getting handsy, which made her a little scared...
"I want to open a corner of the seal on your abdomen. I need to obtain a part of the Nine-Tails' power, and also solve the mental distress it's causing you."
Ryun stated his purpose with a serious expression, his eyes showing no other emotions.
Hearing this, Kushina was visibly stunned for a moment. She realized she had overthought things, so she quickly let go of his hand and sat up straight.
Ryun formed a dozen hand seals with his hands, then gently placed one palm on Kushina's flat and smooth lower abdomen.
As a corner of the seal was opened, a large amount of sinister, evil tailed beast chakra surged out from within Kushina's body.
Ryun ignored these effects. His spiritual force took advantage of the gap when the seal was opened to forcibly break into the sealed space where the Nine-Tails was, and he saw the massive fox bound tightly there.
"Human..."
His appearance caused the Nine-Tails to become furious and wary. This man reminded the Nine-Tails of the humiliating memories of being controlled by the Sharingan in the past.
Since ancient times, almost every Sharingan user who sought it out meant no good. These Uchiha clan madmen were all extremely powerful, and it had to be said that the Sharingan indeed had a great restraining effect on it.
"Even with your body restricted by multiple seals, you still have energy to affect the jinchuriki itself. The power possessed by the complete Nine-Tails is truly extraordinary..."
Ryun could not help but praise the Nine-Tails, but his face remained expressionless and cold, as if he had long been fully aware of the Nine-Tails' strength.
The term "complete Nine-Tails" inexplicably annoyed the Nine-Tails. It did not understand why Ryun would call it that, but it soon learned what this term meant, and it would also because of this become incomplete!
"Since you have so much energy, give me some of your power. This is a good opportunity to make you behave..."
As Ryun spoke, his outside self had already performed the summoning technique to summon the Samehada great sword.
At the same time, Kushina's face could not help but show a pained expression. A thick layer of crimson chakra covered her body surface, and behind her, a crimson tail swayed incessantly, with a second tail clearly already more than half emerged.
"Samehada, devour these tailed beast chakra and transfer them to me. Remember, do not plunder any other chakra, only devour the tailed beast's chakra..."
Ryun gave clear orders to the Samehada in his hand.
The next moment, Samehada unraveled its seal, revealing its dense, spiky body, and immediately began devouring the chakra cloak on Kushina's body surface.
"Ah... What monster is this!"
Kushina was startled by the ugly appearance of the Samehada great sword.
"Don't worry, this guy won't hurt you. I'm just using it as a medium to seize the Nine-Tails chakra from you..."
Ryun quickly explained. He was actually somewhat helpless. Without the Rinnegan, he could not efficiently absorb chakra from other targets, so the Samehada great sword was crucial to him at the moment.
With one bite from the ugly Samehada great sword, the tailed beast cloak on Kushina's body surface was instantly swallowed clean. The hedgehog-like blade body rapidly expanded, swaying unsteadily as if in pain, and a large amount of chakra was transmitted into Ryun's body immediately.
The Nine-Tails chakra did not seem very tasty to it...
