Hokage: Ryo’s Path Chapter 39 - Kyuubi!

Chapter 39: Kyuubi!
“Ryo, don’t you want to meet the Kyuubi?”
Ryo was shocked by Kushina’s proposal, and he said subconsciously, “This is not good
Ne-san!”
“What’s the matter? It’s taking you a long time to say you don’t want to see it!” Kushina
rushed Ryo.
“Ah, yeah let me meet him!” Ryo was still really interested in the Kyuubi. At just half
strength, the great fox was able to beat 5 other Biju.
“I knew you wouldn’t refuse!”
Ryo was embarrassed and scratched his head.
“Well then, now my mind will enter the Kyuubi seal, and yours will follow using your
Yamanaka techniques.” Ryo nodded, and his consciousness entered Kushina’s body.
Under Kushina’s guidance, Ryo successfully entered the 9 tail seal.
Kushina’s seal was similar to that of Naruto from the inside. She took Ryo to the gate
of the Kyuubi’s cage.
It was the same gate as in the Manga, but the seal on it was gone.
Kushina passed through one of the gaps in the cage and climbed onto one of the nine
tails. The Kyuubi actually turned a blind eye to her behavior!
“Hey, I came to see you again Kyuubi!” Kushina was being ignored by Kurama, so she
started pulling on one of his other tails.
“Ne-san be careful, get out of there!” After seeing the Kyuubi, Ryo nally
understood
what the world was so afraid of.
He might be as prideful as he was depicted in the Manga, but the drawing fails to
transmit his might! In his presence, Ryo was being smothered by the terrifying
atmosphere that his immense power creates.
When Kushina and Ryo came in to see the Kyuubi, he didn’t even look at them. But just
his breaths were enough to make Ryo tremble.
“Well, what’s wrong Ryo? Didn’t you say the people and Biju could live together
peacefully?”
Ryo looked at the careless Kushina jumping up and down on the Kyuubi’s tails. How
strong and fearless can one be? No wonder Naruto had such a character. Ryo sighed
again cursing genetics.
“Kushina, enough already. Now you don’t just come to bother me, you bring a little brat
along with you?!” Kurama was so annoyed by Kushina’s behavior.
With all his power, he was still helpless. He can’t kill her, for if she dies, he dies.
Scolding her is of no use, he’s never seen such a shameless person.
Not so long ago, she came in and removed the seals she had on him, saying that
humans and Biju could live together in peace.
“Hey brat, you’re the one telling Kushina about humans and Biju being able to coexist in
peace?”
The human who said such words, is actually someone that Kurama was extremely
interested in.
“No… Yes! It’s me!” The huge amounts of Chakra coming from the Kyuubi’s way made
Ryo breathless.
“And how about now, after you’ve seen me; do you still think the same?”
Ryo was silent. Even though he read the Manga and knew the nal
outcome, facing
such a powerful entity, he lost all his condence
in saying that.
“I believe that will come. Even if I’m not the one to be friends with you, the next one
after me will!”
The Kyuubi glanced back at Kushina and didn’t answer her.
After coming out of the seal, Ryo was all gloomy. He had a huge progress over the past
two years. So he was disappointed that he didn’t have the courage to face Kurama.
And in this world, there are people even stronger than Kurama. Uchiha Madara,
Hashirama Senju, the Rikudo Sennin, Kaguya… All of these characters were not just
able to defeat the Kyuubi, they were able to control it.
This was a huge wake-up call to Ryo.
He knew that he had no time for self-content. He is far from being able to even talk to
Kurama, so he has no business dealing with those god-tier characters.
“Ne-san, let’s spare!”
“Great!” Kushina never saw Ryo be so serious.
In the 3 training ground, a new round between the two began.
Kushina went, as usual, to her tailed coat mode. And Ryo went straight into Ice
Elementization.
“[Water Release: Water Bombs]” Ryo launched a large amount of attacks in the
direction of Kushina.
In her Tailed Coat mode, she easily dodged those attacks. She was really familiar with
Ryo’s ghting
style: Lightning Chakra mode with focus on Chidori, or Ice teleportation
then use of lightning to use lightning.
Kushina was focused on waiting for Ryo’s thunder attack, staying away from areas with
a lot of water to avoid him teleporting on her.
In the past two years, Ryo solved the problem of overusing Chakra for Ice. This time, he
was planning on giving Kushina a surprise.
Ryo used to need water to make ice. But in Mount Myoboku, he learned how to use Ice
in the way of the Yuki clan after working on the [Thousand Flying Water Needles of
Death].
rd
Most Yuki clan members actually used their Kekkei Genkai to freeze the water content
of air. After mastering water release with Jiraya, Ryo was able to mimic that.
“Ne-san, here I come!” Right then, Ryo appeared directly in front of Kushina. Ryo didn’t
use Chidori, nor did he use Raikiri or anything of that sort. Kushina was totally
surprised and didn’t know what to expect.
“[Ice Blade]!” The empty-handed Ryo suddenly had a blade in his hand. Kushina was
caught off guard, and she couldn’t avoid his attack. He landed it, scratching her Coat.
This was a success. Kushina wanted to respond right away by striking him. He was
right in front of him so she took a direct strike.
“[Ice Armor]!” Ryo gathered the moister from the air condensing it rapidly into what
looked like an Armor around his upper body. Ryo’s body was unscathed.
“[Thousand Flying Water Needles of Death]” Ryo condensed the moister in the air into
needles all around Kushina.
Kushina was being harassed by the endless needles hitting her from every direction.
While not strong, they had had penetration power. And also, all the Ice limited her
movement.
After thousands of needles hit her, Kushina’s coat was in all dented. Ryo took that
chance to use his ice blade, and her state was nally
broken.
