Chapter 142: Soul Lotus Ahri: Yin Kurama
🕑 Added 2024-06-30 17:56:31 +0000 UTCNoon.
From returning to Kirigakure, Shishou walked into his room and yawned.
"Tsk, my chakra has already reached 800 kC and is still increasing," Shishou noted with admiration. "As expected, the remains of Uchiha Madara, who awakened the Rinnegan, are different. Just one has given me such a terrifying boost."
After observing his chakra, Shishou took a bath, then went to the basement of his house, taking out the white jade bottle that sealed the Yin half of Kurama.
He pulled the cork, touched the bottle's opening, and infused his power into it. In the next moment, his consciousness entered a closed prison.
"Yo, Yin Kurama, still sleeping?" Shishou greeted the fox, standing outside the cage formed by sealing techniques.
Yin Kurama opened one eye, glanced at Shishou, and then closed it again, clearly uninterested in him.
Having spent years with Minato Namikaze in the Shinigami's stomach, Yin Kurama no longer harbored hatred for humans, just finding them annoying.
Tsk, Yin Kurama's reaction is different...
Shishou didn't feel the same malevolent chakra from Yin Kurama that he sensed from Yang Kurama.
Has it been tamed by the little sunshine?
Thinking of the golden body mode Minato displayed during the Fourth Great Ninja War, Shishou mused.
"Yin Kurama, don't you want to come out? I can let you out," Shishou offered repeatedly, but Yin Kurama turned its back on him.
Oh, playing hard to get, huh!
Tsk, it seems convincing Yin Kurama to cooperate won't work.
Seeing Yin Kurama's indifferent attitude, Shishou felt a bit helpless.
He had hoped to transform Yin Kurama into the form of Soul Lotus Ahri.
If the soft approach doesn't work, then I'll have to use force.
With that thought, Shishou glared at Yin Kurama and threatened, "Hey, Yin Kurama. If you keep ignoring me, I'll have to teach you a lesson!"
Yin Kurama opened one eye, looked at Shishou with disdain, and sneered, "How do you plan to teach me a lesson?"
As the most powerful Tailed Beast... or at least half of it, it didn't fear anyone.
Shishou smirked and activated his Mangekyo Sharingan.
Sharingan Genjutsu!
Yin Kurama saw the Mangekyo Sharingan in Shishou's eyes and was momentarily stunned.
The next moment, Yin Kurama found its surroundings drastically changed.
"Where is this?" Yin Kurama frowned at the black and white environment.
"This is just an illusion I created for you."
A giant appeared at Kurama's feet, gently picking it up and smiling at it.
After devouring Madara's remains, Shishou's pupil power and Sharingan genjutsu abilities had increased rapidly, allowing him to create an illusion space similar to Tsukuyomi.
Of course, it was only similar; he couldn't manipulate time in the illusion. However, he could control the space and objects within it.
Just like now, he could shrink Kurama.
"Kurama, you've always relied on your strength to do as you please. Now, I'll let you experience the pain of being weak," Shishou said, rolling Yin Kurama into a ball like a soccer ball, transforming the surroundings into a World Cup soccer field.
The referee, both teams' players, and the audience appeared.
"Tweet!"
At the sound of the whistle, Shishou tossed Kurama into the air and kicked it straight into the goal.
In this life, Shishou's parents had died during Kurama's rampage in Konoha. Now, he was just collecting a little interest.
"Hey, let's talk this out," Kurama shouted, finding itself helpless, unable to control its body or use its power, just getting kicked around.
Shishou ignored Kurama, raising his arms and shouting, "The first Nine-Tails Ball Cup is officially starting!"
Kurama panicked, "Wait, I'll do whatever you say..."
"Roar!!!"
Kurama's cries were drowned out by the cheers of the audience as it was kicked into the air.
...
Two hours later.
"Do you submit?" Shishou asked, holding Kurama in ball form, smiling.
"I submit," Kurama nodded hurriedly, no longer showing its previous arrogance.
"Will you behave in the future?" Shishou asked, satisfied.
"I will, definitely," Kurama nodded repeatedly.
Shishou had scared it out of its wits; Kurama realized it couldn't resist and had been kicked around for over two hours...
"Now, transform into this!"
"Even your voice should change to this."
Shishou conjured an image of Soul Lotus Ahri in his left hand and played a recording of Ahri's voice, smiling at Kurama.
Kurama's mouth twitched and with a puff, transformed into Soul Lotus Ahri.
"Not bad, not bad."
Shishou praised the transformed Kurama, now looking like Soul Lotus Ahri.
"You must keep this form from now on, or I'll be rude to you," Shishou threatened, his tone serious.
"Yes, yes," Kurama, using Ahri's voice, nodded, looking pitiful.
Under the eaves, one must bow. Kurama resigned itself.
"That's all for today," Shishou said, ending the genjutsu and withdrawing his consciousness from the sealing bottle.
He carefully stored the sealing bottle and left the basement, satisfied.
Subduing Kurama was part of his preparation for the future battles.
Although Shishou didn't think he'd need Kurama's chakra, it was always good to be prepared.
Leaving a shadow clone behind, Shishou disappeared from his basement.
Kumogakure, near the Valley of Clouds and Lightning, Turtle Island.
Shishou appeared on the giant turtle's head and started negotiating a summoning contract with it.
After a round of friendly (intimidation), mutual benefit (bribery), and demonstrating his power (threats), the giant turtle reluctantly agreed to sign a summoning contract with Shishou.
Having done this, Shishou left and walked towards the interior of Turtle Island.
On Turtle Island, there was a real waterfall where one could see their inner demons. Shishou wanted to see what his inner demon was.
And by the way, see if Matatabi's jinchuuriki, Yugito Nii, was still on the island.
If she was, Shishou intended to borrow some of Matatabi's chakra for his future plans of reaching the Six Paths level.
"You, what are you doing here? Yugito-sama and Killer Bee-sama are not on this island," said Motoi, a middle-ranking ninja guarding Turtle Island, blocking Shishou's path with a terrified expression.
Shishou paused and smiled brightly, "Oh, Killer Bee is here too? That's great."
