Naruto: Mikoto and Tsunade, don't let either of them go.

"Mitsuo Isobu, it seems you don't remember me. Then don't blame me for giving you a little something to show my appreciation."

Uchiha Kakuzan naturally knew that these tailed beasts were forgetful of what they had been taught and that you couldn't reason with them. Only by beating them into submission would they obediently follow orders.

Therefore, while the Three-Tails was still observing from the bottom of the water, Uchiha Kakuzan stretched out his hands, fingers spread, palms facing the Three-Tails at the bottom of the water, while simultaneously gathering his vast amount of chakra in his hands:

"Bloodline Elimination - Dust Release - Particle Style: Detachment Technique"

With a shout from Uchiha Kakuzan, a square shimmering with white light appeared in his palm, then transformed into a white beam of light about one meter in diameter, shooting towards the Three-Tails underwater. Everything the beam passed through was broken down into the smallest particles, even the lake water.

"It's just a greeting, so let's not make the Dust Release too big. If we accidentally kill the Three-Tails, who knows how many years it will take for him to be resurrected."

Ow! ! !

As Uchiha Kakuzan's Dust Release shot towards the bottom of the water, only a few seconds later, a huge creature emerged from the water with a very deep wound on its body, from which blood was flowing. Clearly, this was the wound that Uchiha Kakuzan had just created by using Dust Release.

The enormous creature, which had just emerged from the water, was still in a state of rage. As soon as it appeared, it opened its mouth towards Uchiha Kagami in the sky:

"Water Release: Iron Cannonball! You insignificant human, how dare you injure me? Whoever you are, die!!"

Chapter 410 The Desperate Three-Tailed Beast

"Water Release - Iron Cannonball, you insignificant human, how dare you injure me? You'll never know who you just angered."

With a furious roar from the Three-Tails Isobu, an extremely thick and terrifying jet of water shot out from its mouth, spraying towards Mount Uchiha in the sky.

Facing the enraged Three-Tails, Uchiha Kakuzan remained calm, speaking in a flat tone:

"Three-tailed Fox, it's been years. It seems you've been sleeping too long, or have you forgotten me? How dare you be so disrespectful to me."

As Uchiha Kakuzan spoke calmly, he extended his right hand, facing the massive jet of water rushing towards him.

"The Hungry Ghost Realm of the Six Paths - Devouring"

As Uchiha Kakuzan spoke casually, the giant iron cannon unleashed by the Three-Tails seemed to have met its nemesis, turning directly into streams of water that were absorbed into Uchiha Kakuzan's right hand. He himself remained floating in place, without moving an inch.

In fact, if Uchiha Kagami had dodged or used a large-scale ninjutsu to block the Three-Tails' cannonball at that moment, the Three-Tails would have continued to attack him.

However, to the Three-Tails' surprise, its ninjutsu was absorbed by its opponent so silently. This bizarre situation immediately brought the Three-Tails, which was still in a state of rage, back to its senses.

At this moment, the Three-Tails finally saw the person in front of it clearly. Feeling the huge and familiar chakra of the person opposite it, the memory of being beaten up by that giant wooden doll several years ago immediately surfaced in the Three-Tails' mind, leaving it frozen on the spot, not knowing what to do.

“Uchiha Okayama, no, Uchiha-sama, I was unaware of your arrival and have just offended you.”

The Three-Tails originally called out Uchiha Kakuyama's name, but when it saw Kakuyama's eyes, which were just like the Sage of Six Paths', looking at it coldly, it was startled and immediately changed its address.

Uchiha Kakuzan was standing high in the sky, looking down at the Three-Tails that had surfaced above the water. After hearing what he said, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and he continued:

“Three-Tails, you should know that I have a good relationship with Kirigakure. Since I’ve run into you today, I’ll just take you back with me.”

So, are you going to come back with me willingly, or will you come back with me willingly after I beat you up?

Because he had spent significantly less time in Kirigakure compared to Konoha over the years, Li Xuan felt somewhat indebted to Mei Terumi, who had borne him two children.

She had previously told herself that Kirigakure no longer had any Jinchuriki, which made it somewhat unworthy of the title of one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages.

Therefore, Li Xuan felt that giving the three tailed beasts to Mei Terumi would be a good gift and would make her happier.

Upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, the Three-Tails' face turned green.

It is the Three-Tailed Isobu. Ever since it created the Sage of Six Paths, it has been living a carefree life in this world for thousands of years. It has no natural enemies and it is always the one bullying others, never the other way around.

In the last hundred years or so, he was first captured by Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha and sent to Kirigakure as a weapon of war.

Later, it was sealed inside this tiny human body, which led to its stifling way of life.

Having finally escaped that stifling life through death and lived a carefree life for a few years, he was found by this malevolent god before him.

However, the Three-Tails was also very clear that it was no match for the human in front of it a few years ago, and was directly crushed by the human's Wood Release.

Now, the other party has awakened the Rinnegan just like the Six Paths Lord. If the other party is willing, even if I am the mighty Three-Tailed Isobu, I will be directly controlled by his genjutsu in a single thought, without any power to resist.

The thought filled the Three-Tails with utter despair.

Chapter 411 Have you thought it through?

While the Three-Tails was still hesitating, Uchiha Kakuzan, seeing its reluctance to agree, slowly made his expression more lively. His eyes were fixed on the Three-Tails, which was now only showing its head, and he slightly curled the corners of his lips, speaking meaningfully:

“Mitsuba, it seems you don’t understand your place yet. In that case, let’s find another place to talk.”

At this moment, the Three-Tails was indeed still somewhat hesitant, but upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, he immediately reacted. Just as he was about to say something, he only saw Uchiha Kakuzan's outstretched right hand:

"The Heavenly Way of the Six Paths - The Guiding Force of All Things".

The Three-Tails was about to agree when it was caught in the Universal Pull used by Uchiha Kakuzan. Before it could even speak, its massive body was pulled up by an incredibly strong gravitational force. Without the slightest hesitation, its body was pulled out of the water and flew towards Uchiha Kakuzan without any resistance.

However, how could Uchiha Kakuzan allow the Three-Tails, soaking wet, to get close? As it approached, his Rinnegan flashed almost imperceptibly, and he extended his right hand toward the Three-Tails, while also changing the angle:

"The Heavenly Path of the Six Paths - Shinra Tensei!!"

However, when Uchiha Kakuzan used Shinra Tensei, he had to use much more power than when he used Bansho Ten'in. In addition, he slightly adjusted the direction when he used it, which caused the Three-Tails, this behemoth, to be sent flying by Uchiha Kakuzan in an instant, falling down the hill in the distance.

Boom, boom~~

The Three-Tails is, after all, a tailed beast, and one that is enormous, thick-skinned, and covered in a spiky shell.

Therefore, after it was blasted away by Uchiha Kagaya, it transformed into a colossal mountain of flesh, landing rather pathetically on a distant hill, emitting a series of booming sounds.

Watching the Three-Tails tumbling down in the distance after making a huge noise, Uchiha Kakuzan thoughtfully stroked his chin and muttered:

"Hmm, this commotion seems a bit too loud. I wonder if that guy Bai Zetsu will be able to detect it."

Although these desolate and wild areas are not the main distribution areas of White Zetsu clones,

However, if the commotion is too great, White Zetsu's Wood Release sensory abilities will still be able to detect it.

However, Uchiha Kakuzan glanced at the Three-Tails rolling down in the distance, raised an eyebrow, and muttered to himself as he flew towards the Three-Tails:

"Well, whatever. So what if they know? If they have the ability, they can revive Uchiha Madara. Otherwise, who can be my opponent?"

To be honest, Uchiha Kakuzan had long coveted Uchiha Madara's eye techniques.

However, although he can now also use the Impure World Reincarnation technique, he is unable to summon Madara Uchiha from the Pure Land because he lacks the medium for Madara's resurrection.

When Uchiha Kakuzan arrived next to the Three-Tails, it had already stopped rolling around, and was covered in mud, looking rather disheveled.

However, Uchiha Kakuzan ignored all of this and calmly addressed the now completely silent Three-Tails:

"Three-Tails, so? Have you made up your mind now?"

Chapter 412 Subduing the Three-Tailed Isobu

At this moment, the Three-Tails had just recovered from its dizziness and hadn't even had a chance to turn over. Upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, it dared not waste any more time and hurriedly shouted:

"I promise, I promise, I'm willing to go back to Kirigakure with you."

Although, as tailed beasts, they are basically immortal beings, even if they are killed, they will be resurrected somewhere in the ninja world with their memories after a few years.

However, the Three-Tails had actually experienced the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan firsthand inside the body of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi.

The Mangekyou Sharingan alone was enough to completely control him and the Fourth Mizukage, let alone the even higher-level Rinnegan.

Therefore, the Three-Tails was very clear that if the human in front of him was willing, he could control him completely with just a glance.

The reason he seems to be seeking my opinion now is simply to convince me so that I will obediently cooperate with them when I return to Kirigakure.

That's precisely why the Three-Tails quickly agreed; in the world of tailed beasts, naturally, whoever is the strongest gets to decide.

Moreover, the person before me has awakened the Rinnegan, which was unique to the Six Paths Master. He is definitely a descendant of the Six Paths Master. Surrendering to him is not a shameful thing.

Uchiha Kakuzan naturally heard the Three-Tails' words, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes before he nodded and said:

"Since you are willing, that is naturally the best. As long as you obey me, I guarantee that your safety will be ensured, instead of being captured by some people with ulterior motives and sent into the body of the Ten-Tails."

Originally, although the Three-Tails had already submitted to Uchiha Kakuyama, it was still somewhat unwilling.

Nonsense, it was living a carefree life in this wilderness, doing whatever it wanted. How could it possibly want to go back to Kirigakure? The only reason it agreed was because it was intimidated by Uchiha Kagama's powerful strength.

Now, upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, the Three-Tails shuddered, quickly straightened its body, stuck its long head out, and stared intently at Uchiha Kakuzan, asking:

"Lord Uchiha, what did you mean by what you just said? And what is the Ten-Tails' husk?"

When the Three-Tails was young, it had already learned about their origins from the old man of the Six Paths. It also knew that the remaining Ten-Tails' body had long been sealed on the moon. When did it reappear?

Thinking of this, the Three-Tails seemed to remember something, and its enormous eyes inexplicably looked at the Rinnegan that Uchiha Kagakuyama had revealed.

If there's anything that could summon back the Ten-Tails' body, it would only be Uchiha Kakuyama's inexplicably awakened Rinnegan.

However, the Three-Tails wasn't stupid, so it naturally didn't dare to question Uchiha Kakuzan. It just watched him silently, wanting to hear more information.

Uchiha Kakuzan, of course, was unaware that the Three-Tails had already identified him as a suspect. Upon hearing the Three-Tails' question, he replied with great interest:

"Three-Tails, stop pretending. You know better than anyone what the Ten-Tails' body really is."

At this point, Uchiha Kakuzan glanced inexplicably at the Three-Tails below and continued:

"It's your bad luck, Tailed Beasts. Recently, a madman found the Ten-Tails' body and wanted to revive the legendary Ten-Tails. So, he targeted you Tailed Beasts, aiming to capture you all and stuff you into the Ten-Tails' body so that the Ten-Tails could be revived."

Upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, the Three-Tails' heart trembled violently. The moment it heard those words, it knew that this human was not bluffing, but that someone was truly committing such a mad act.

Therefore, the Three-Tails stopped pretending not to know and looked at the powerful human before it, saying in a deep, rumbling voice:

"My lord, haven't you already awakened the Rinnegan? That madman is no match for you. If that guy collects the tailed beasts and revives the Ten-Tails, then this world will fall into a huge disaster once again."

Why don't you just kill that madman?

Upon hearing the Three-Tails' words, Uchiha Kakuzan gave him a half-smile before speaking in an enigmatic tone:

"I forgot to tell you, that guy who collects the tailed beasts also has a pair of Rinnegan, and he awakened his Rinnegan much earlier than me."

Upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, the Three-Tails could no longer remain still. It had been lying down, but suddenly stood up abruptly, exclaiming in surprise:

"A second pair of Rinnegan? How could this be?"

In the Three-Tails' memories, the Rinnegan was originally something that belonged exclusively to the Six Paths Elder. He was already very surprised when he saw Uchiha Kakuzan's Rinnegan, but he never expected that there would be a second pair of Rinnegan in this world. This made him even doubt the reality of this world.

Uchiha Kakuzan naturally understood the Three-Tails' feelings at that moment, and then comforted it:

"Don't worry, this guy can't beat me. He doesn't even dare to face me directly now. As long as you're under my protection, your safety is guaranteed."

At this point, Uchiha Kakuzan seemed to have thought of something, a smile appearing on his face, and he continued:

"Furthermore, I also protect the Two-Tails Jinchuriki and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, so you're not the first tailed beast I've protected."

Upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, the Three-Tails looked at him strangely, but said nothing. It simply lowered its body again and hummed:

"In that case, I'll have to trouble you from now on, Lord Qiu."

Seeing that the Three-Tails had completely submitted to him, a satisfied smile flashed in Uchiha Kakuzan's eyes, and he couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.

Just then, Li Xuan seemed to remember something, and his smile deepened as he addressed the three-tailed beast below:

"Sanwei, now that you have pledged allegiance to me, you are one of us. However, I have a favor to ask of you, and I hope you will not refuse."

The Three-Tails had just submitted to Uchiha Kakuzan. Upon hearing his words, although a sense of foreboding flashed through his mind, he knew he couldn't refuse Uchiha Kakuzan's request. So he lowered his body even further and said in a muffled voice:

"If there is anything you need, just give the order, and Isobu will do it without hesitation."

Chapter 413 Sending the Three-Tailed Beast into the Space

Upon hearing the Three-Tails' words, Uchiha Kakuzan's smile deepened, and he nodded approvingly before continuing:

"Alright, Three-Tails, I wasn't wrong about you. Then give me a third of your chakra; I have a use for it."

Chakra? One-third?

Upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, the Three-Tails, after a brief moment of stunned silence, abruptly raised its head, staring intently at Uchiha Kakuzan, and asked incredulously:

"Did you just say that you need one-third of my chakra?"

Just now, when the Three-Tails heard what Uchiha Kakuyama said, it initially thought he was going to seal him inside one of the Hidden Mist Village ninjas.

The Three-Tails was already quite familiar with this kind of thing, so it didn't really care.

These humans have such short lifespans; he'll probably just sleep inside that Jinchūriki's body and then come out.

However, what the Three-Tails didn't expect was that this Uchiha master's ultimate goal was its chakra.

Chakra is the most important thing for tailed beasts.

Unlike humans, the essence of a tailed beast is actually a life form constructed from chakra.

Therefore, unlike humans, who can survive as long as they possess a little chakra, tailed beasts will not only experience a significant drop in strength after losing a large amount of chakra, but if they lose too much chakra, their entire body will collapse, directly leading to their death.

Uchiha Kakuzan naturally understood the Three-Tails' concerns, and continued:

"Don't worry, I will only take one-third, not more. You will only be unconscious and weak for a while, and then you will be fine."

At this moment, the Three-Tails knew it had no other choice. Even if it rejected this human, it would be powerless to stop him from taking its chakra.
