Chapter 181: Hot Springs Country
🕑 Added 2021-11-04 04:54:46 +0000 UTCAs soon as the first batch of chakra reached Shikamaru's body, along the inner fuin chains, it immediately moved to the third of the ten demonic gates. Shikamaru could choose any and direct the chakra exactly there, but he still did not want to get confused, so he directed Isobu's chakra to the right side of the torso, to the very bottom. He divided all the gates into nine merging points of the tanketsu and connected them with chakrakanals and bones. Of course, he did not become stupid and distribute seals in his hands and feet, because the loss of a limb can result in major problems. The biju is somehow intertwined with the user's life, so it almost becomes a vital organ, so leaving such an organ in your hand is not a particularly wise idea.
Chakra continued to insanely flow into Shikamaru's body, but he calmly withstood this load, for him it even seemed much less problematic than bringing ten gates into the body and bones, so he was going through the process of absorbing the beast quite normally. Unfortunately, if things continue at this pace, it will take at least a week, so Shikamaru decided to increase the beast's chakra draw rate.
After an unusual one-handed seal, Shikamaru issued the command of the chain and at the same moment, the already insane stream of chakra turned into a real erupting volcano. It was then that the guy first felt a worthy load and concentrated. Now it is certainly possible to cope in a shorter period of time, which he proceeded to do.

A day passed, Isobu was no longer restrained, but he still showed no signs of awakening. In his case, this was not surprising, because now he looked rather sad. The beast did not just shrink five times, it already resembled a very small animal. That is why it was no longer required to restrain him, one thick hook easily held him without moving and pulled out the remnants. Shikamaru, on the other hand, was sweating a little and, looking tired, continued the chakra-stretching process.
Now, after another hour, nothing remained of the Three-Tails. The last bits of chakra were completely sealed. The gold chain flashed, curled up and returned to the host's body. The black cube on Shikamaru's belly flashed and almost all of the fuin symbols around him disappeared except for the right side. Moreover, completely new ones appeared in that direction, slowly flowing into the sign of fuin "three". The tattoo was more like a small inscription, nothing more. As soon as the marks appeared, the black magatama instantly reflected on Shikamaru's right forearm, directly opposite the path of fuin symbols. It was a natural reaction, Shikamaru deliberately created these instructions, and an extreme case and the magathams should have been nine in number right there.
With a drawn-out sigh, Shikamaru wiped the sweat from his forehead and finally stood up. The sealing process proved to be quite lengthy, but this is in part due to the special environment of the Ten Demonic Gates. Shikamaru stabilized everything and did not allow the beast to take its place. Now, finally, everything worked perfectly, he was pleased with the results, even now the guy could easily see the huge beast on the lonely sea island. He lay quietly under the illusory sun and a huge arch, marked "ten" at the top. Isobu felt like he was in a watery paradise for himself alone. Shikamaru provided him with all the conditions, it remains only to talk and discuss the future.
The guy has not yet given the beast access to the outside world, and forbade him to contact himself and be able to observe. All this is temporary so that Isobu will settle down, while Shikamaru wanted to rest and arrive in the Land of Hot Springs. There you can relax and train, plus the Land of Waves is quite close. Shikamaru intended to stay there for a while.
Having collected his things, he set off again, he was not particularly tired physically, he almost did not use up chakras. Therefore, the way to the Land of Hot Springs should not be so long, nevertheless it was already at the very border and soon it would be possible to rest.

Three days later, in the Hot Springs Country, in the trading city of Subuki.
Subiki was a port city, quite wealthy, mainly due to the many trade magnates located in these lands. Also, the city was famous for its natural hot springs. They were mainly located on hills in the middle of the forest. Thanks to the clean mountain air and natural location, the springs were famous for their healing and rejuvenating properties.
It was here, at a small tree house, hidden in the fog, that Shikamaru spent his last days calmly. He rented himself a VIP place and enjoyed the harmony of nature to his fullest.
Sipping wine, the guy admired the night sky full of stars.
- Yes, this old man turned out to be smart and gave me the highest welcome. This country looks quite worthy, it's amazing how these traders decided to open a business here. Still, these are not the main countries of the world ... - Taking a sip of wine, Shikamaru sank lower into the warm water and smiled contentedly.
“It is worth practicing a little later ... Isobu eagerly wants to chat, to see he was too embarrassed by the area in which he found himself. After all, the jinchūriki did not control the situation like that before ... Poor fellow, I hope he will make contact. If you think so, there are not so many available for quickly obtaining Bijuu. Akatsuki will need all of them, so I'll definitely be the target ... I have an idea for that. The appearance of Madara can play into the hands ... Although, the devil only knows how much I will rise in those days. If I am as strong as he is, then perhaps I should give the opportunity to appear to Kagura. She will be an entertaining adversary and a rather useful informant. The tsutsuki can cause problems in twenty years, I can take all the Tailed Beasts, but I'm not entirely sure of defeating these aliens. That's why reviving a sweet princess might make sense if I want to conquer space. ”With a slight sneer, Shikamaru drained his glass and refilled it.
“If everything is so, then perhaps it is worth finding a method to take the bija without harming my plans. Separating Yin and Yang is the only suitable method, I can easily print part of Isobu and also take away other parts of the Tailed Beasts. With all this, I'm afraid even the nine-tails are not my opponent. Of course, this is in theory, I am not even sure of the possibility of overpowering four animals in the body. Well, on that score, I want to be sure about Minato's situation. Once his body was mine, I would be able to take out the remnants of Kurama's chakra and seal the second beast within me. Although you can do it with Gaara, he will be good practice, the exam is coming soon and I could capture the one-tailed one. The problem is that Gaara will probably not stand it and will simply die, I could have pulled half the beast out of Kushina or Naruto, but from this boy it is unlikely. This complicates a lot, if I had a technique of transferring vitality or regeneration, I could try ... Perhaps it is worth making this the main goal for the first time. I have a thought, but I still have to interact with Sand. They have an interesting technique, although I could buy it ... "- with this thought, Shikamaru brought up the" Exchange "menu and quickly found the right Jutsu.
