"Ka…Carl!"
Nine-Tailed's fox-like eyes widened, and they almost popped out of their sockets.
"Uncle Carl!"
Just as Kushina Uzumaki was about to turn around, she saw a burly and strong figure appear behind her, just like in her memories. He leaped over her and walked all the way to the cage that imprisoned Nine-Tailed.
"Yo, long time no see! The Ninth Lama."
Karl ignored Uzumaki Kushina and looked straight at Nine-Tails with a bright smile on his face.
At first glance, Uzumaki Kushina felt like they were old friends who had reunited after a long time.
"Who hasn't seen you for a long time? You make it sound like I'm very familiar with you!”
Nine-Tails gritted her teeth and roared, but Uzumakushina's expression became even stranger.
Why was this fox retreating as it roared?
"His bad temper is still the same as before, but it's no wonder.
From the looks of it, you haven't been doing well these years after leaving me. This seems to be different from what you said when you left!
This old man remembers that you used to say that Nine-Tails was born between heaven and earth, so how could it be inferior to others? You also said that after leaving this old man, it would definitely live a better life?
Carl reached out and knocked on the cage. The playful smile on his face grew wider.
"How do you know that I'm not doing well?
Could it be that I'm tired of living a free life and want to change to a quiet place to stay?”
Nine-Tailed's face turned red when he heard that.
Back then, when his temper flared up, he repeatedly insisted that the tail beast was the darling of heaven and earth and should not be inferior to Carl. It should not be kept in captivity and live the life of a pet cat or dog.
Under his instigation, the other tail beasts finally chose to escape together.
In the beginning, the taste of freedom was not bad.
However, the good times did not last long. After losing the protection of the iron fist, he was first glared at by Uchiha Ban, then beaten up by the thousand hand pillars, and finally locked up.
"You have a penchant for going to jail, so of course it's not a problem. After all, that's your problem.
When you chose to escape, I didn't plan to care about you anymore.”
Carl paused for a moment, and his tone gradually became dangerous.
"However, what did you call me just now?”
Nine-Tailed did not speak, but her blood-red vertical pupils constricted, and her body could not help but tremble.
"If I didn't hear wrongly, you seemed to have called this old man…a bastard, right?”
Carl said as he ignored the seal left behind by the whirlpool Mito and walked straight through the cage to Nine-Tails who was curled up in the corner.
"You…Don't come over!"
Nine-Tailed's orange fox face gradually turned pale.
bang bang bang
However, his screams quickly stopped and were replaced by a tragic wail.
"Don't you have anything to say to this old man?”
Carl retracted his fist and blew at the steam rising from his fingers.
"I'm sorry, I know I was wrong!"
Nine-Tails, whose face was bruised and swollen, sat down obediently. Her face was just short of saying that she knew she was wrong.
“……”
Uzumaki Kushina looked at Nine-Tails, who had been beaten until her face was bruised and swollen. She apologized obediently like a pet cat or dog that had been trained. She was so shocked that her small mouth was wide open.
Although she had been quite arrogant in front of Nine Tails just now, in fact, Nine Tails had never given her a good look all these years, let alone yielded.
"Yes, that's what a fox should say.”
Carl nodded in satisfaction and walked out of the cell.
"Uncle Carl, you're still as strong as ever!”
Uzumaki Kushina saw that Carl didn't look at her at all, as if he didn't know her at all, so she quickly jumped over.
"Um…do we know each other?"
Carl was slightly stunned. He saw that Uzumaki Kushina was looking at him excitedly and could not help but ask.
"Don't you remember?
Me! Kyocinna, the red-haired girl you saved back then.”
Uzumaki Kushina was a little disappointed, but she pulled herself together when she thought about how the two of them hadn't even spoken a word from the time they met to the time they parted.
"Red-haired little girl…Oh, I remember now. You're the little ninja who was captured by those Cloud Ninjas.”
Carl immediately used Life Return to control his brain and immediately remembered.
"You finally remembered. I was really worried that you had forgotten about this.”
Seeing that Carl finally remembered her, Uzumaki Koshina said happily,"
"Back then, if it wasn't for you killing those Cloud Ninjas who snuck into Muye and took me away, not only would I never have the chance to see you again, even Nine-Tailed would have fallen into Hidden Cloud's hands.”
At that time, she was still studying at a ninja school.
However, because the news of the Nine-Tailed Human Pillar Strength was leaked, it was secretly taken away by a few Cloud Ninjas.
On the way to Hidden Cloud Village, she had thought that her life was over. However, she did not expect to meet Carl, who was carrying a fishing rod in one hand, a wooden bucket in the other, and slippers in the back of Muye Mountain.
When she met Carl, she was very happy at first. However, when she saw Carl's short pants and slippers, and that he did not look like a ninja at all, the little hope in her heart was instantly extinguished.
However, what happened next shocked her.
When the few Cloud Ninjas who were holding her hostage saw Carl, they rushed forward to silence him. However, Carl swung his fishing rod and killed them on the spot.
She had no choice but to swallow the word " escape " that was about to come out of her mouth.
