Chapter 183: Kiyoshi is the Child of Prophecy?
"This place is really gloomy."
Kiyoshi sized up the surroundings.
Each Jinchuriki has a mental space inside them, serving as a place for the Tailed Beast to communicate with the Jinchuriki.
The Tailed Beast's consciousness is often sealed here as well.
"You… you can actually come in?"
Yugito looked surprised.
This had never happened before. Someone had invaded her mental space.
If anyone dared to use genjutsu on her, she could easily dispel it by using the Tailed Beast's immense chakra.
Instantly, Yugito realized that Kiyoshi was not simple.
She stared intently, Kiyoshi's left eye had a three tomoe, and his right eye had two.
However, when facing Kiyoshi, Yugito felt a sense of pressure.
She had fought against ninjas from the Uchiha clan who possessed the three-tomoe Sharingan before.
Only Kiyoshi was so special.
'Is it because his Uchiha bloodline has merged with the Yotsuki clan's bloodline?'
Yugito thought to herself, watching Kiyoshi warily.
Compared to Yugito's vigilance, Kiyoshi seemed much calmer.
This was a mental space, the worst that could happen was being expelled.
"Kid, your chakra… makes me very unhappy."
From the dark depths, a voice emerged. It was vaguely discernible as a female voice.
Among the Nine Tailed Beasts, there was no clear distinction of gender.
But the voices among the Tailed Beasts were obviously different.
For example, the voices of the Two-Tails and Five-Tails were more feminine.
The voices of the Nine-Tails, Eight-Tails, Seven-Tails, etc, were obviously masculine.
A huge demon cat stood behind Yugito, the two tails behind it swaying constantly.
Two-Tails, Matatabi!
"Is that so?"
Kiyoshi smiled.
It was normal for an Uchiha's chakra to be cold and Yin-based.
Or rather, an Uchiha with gentle chakra would be an anomaly.
"Have you seen other Tailed Beasts?"
Kiyoshi's calm demeanor caught Matatabi's attention.
Since the death of the Sage of Six Paths, as time passed, humans had become increasingly fearful and yearning for them.
Fearful of their destructive power, yet greedy to control that power.
Over the millennia, countless ninjas who did not know their limits had come to challenge them.
Over time, rumors spread that the Tailed Beasts were disasters, representatives of ominous things in the world.
"That's right, I've seen Nine-Tails." Kiyoshi said.
When Kushina had gone berserk, he and Kushina had fought against the Nine-Tails together.
He had also been to Kushina's mental space, which was slightly better than this place.
After all, Kushina's personality could be described as carefree and positive.
But Yugito was arrogant and conceited.
In fact, this was a manifestation of inferiority. The more inferior a person is, the more conceited they are.
"I also know your name, Matatabi, right? Or should I call you Kasha?" Kiyoshi said calmly.
In the history and mythology of the ninja world, cats understand human nature and can distinguish between good and evil.
When a cat's tail turns into two, it becomes a demon cat, Kasha, a symbol of evil.
Kasha sometimes transformation into a young girl or an old woman to lure passersby. In actuality, this is just nonsense.
Just like the Nine-Tails being called the embodiment of hatred in the world, a naturally formed disaster, it is ridiculous.
During the Fourth Great Ninja War, Naruto sensed the Ten-Tails through Sage Mode and exclaimed that the Ten-Tails was an aggregate of natural energy.
In fact, all the Tailed Beasts are aggregates of natural energy.
The God Tree extracts natural energy from the earth, and as the derivatives of the God Tree, the Tailed Beasts are of course inevitably affected.
Therefore, they reside in the world undying, and even if their bodies collapse, they can slowly regenerate over time.
"!"
Matatabi, let out a meow, and the dark blue fur stood on end.
Her name… was a secret!
Apart from the recognized Yugito, Matatabi had never told anyone her name.
Could it be that other Tailed Beasts had leaked it?
No, impossible.
Matatabi ruled out this idea in her heart.
Her temper among the Nine Tailed Beasts was considered the most gentle, and the other arrogant Tailed Beasts would not reveal these secrets because all the Tailed Beasts were waiting for an appointed moment.
Only the boy in the prophecy is qualified to call out the names of all the Tailed Beasts.
"Sage of Six Paths… descendant of Indra?" Matatabi murmured.
"Matatabi, what are you talking about? Help me deal with Kiyoshi!"
Yugito found that she completely couldn't understand the conversation between Matatabi and Kiyoshi.
She knew about the mythical figure, Sage of Six Paths, but who was Indra?
The ancestor of the Uchiha, Uchiha Indra?
Yugito felt depressed.
Could it be that the Tailed Beasts still hid secrets that she didn't know?
But now was not the time to talk about these things, Yugito just wanted to take Kiyoshi back as soon as possible.
Then everything could be answered in the village. There was no need to rush.
"No, Yugito, calm down first."
Matatabi waved her paw, signaling Yugito not to rush.
"Matatabi, you…"
Yugito was really numb.
There were even cases where the Tailed Beast rebelled while fighting?
Then what was the point of her hard work all these years?
Damn evil Uchiha!
Yugito glared at Kiyoshi.
She wanted to see what the two of them were going to talk about.
"Descendant of Indra, I wonder why you have come here specifically." Matatabi's voice was gentle.
There was no sign of the evil described in traditional mythology.
"You should ask Yugito, she is chasing me, not me chasing her." Kiyoshi said.
The pupil power in his eyes turned, and the scarlet Sharingan slowly rotated.
If Matatabi showed signs of wanting to take him down with Yugito, he would strike first.
Matatabi fell silent. The little kid in front of him was a bit interesting.
But she had been staying in Yugito's body and could also perceive the outside world, knowing why Yugito wanted to capture Kiyoshi.
"Your home is in Kumogakure, why not return?" Matatabi's voice softened a bit.
Involving the agreement between the Sage of Six Paths and the Nine Tailed Beasts thousands of years ago, Matatabi could not help but be cautious.
"Then there's nothing to talk about." Kiyoshi 's tone turned cold.
Since Yugito was so stubborn, Kiyoshi had no choice but to make her fly.
Yes, fly in the literal sense.
Kiyoshi formed a hand seal with one hand, the Sharingan was activated to the limit, and a large amount of invisible pupil power spread out.
"Wait!"
Matatabi suddenly spoke, "I'm not interested in the fights between humans, so, the two of you can compete against each other. Whoever's mental strength prevails, wins. If Yugito wins, you go with her, if you win, then you're free to go."
Matatabi gave a plan.
It was too abnormal for Kiyoshi to know her name. She wanted to see what the reason behind it was.
In case Kiyoshi was really the so-called "blue-eyed boy who calls out the names of the nine beasts with a smile", it would be bad to offend him rashly.
