Naruto: Child of Chakra

Chapter 63 - 63. FREEDOM!



Chomei was very happy after seeing Shiroken. So happy that he would not shut up and Fu had to convey his words one after another.

"Haha, calm down, Chomei. I will get you out soon. Saiken and Isobu are already out and in the Dama country." He tried to calm him down. ​​

"COUNTRY? WE HAVE A COUNTRY NOW?" Chomei excitedly asked.

"Yes, a country where we can be ourselves. You can roam freely there." Shiroken said.

Fu, who had been listening for all this time, asked, "You will take him? How? Shibuki said that it's not possible to take Chomei out of my body without hurting me?"

Of course, she was afraid for her own life. She had been repeatedly told about the dangers of being caught by enemies. The only person in the village who treated her well had also taught her well.

"Why don't you go and tell your guardian to come here and talk with me?" Shiroken suggested.

Fu nodded and immediately ran to Shibuki. Shisui, from the back, asked, "Will they even agree? No village in their right mind would let their ace weapon be taken away."

*Sigh*

"I know, but I just gave them a chance, so they don't say I attacked them later for no reason. Slavery is not practised or promoted by anyone in the world, yet they made the tailed beasts their slaves, so naturally, I am against them. If they fight me, I will break their bones." Shiroken plainly replied, as if defeating villages all alone wasn't a big deal for him now.

Soon after, a man came running to Shiroken, he stood protectively, keeping Fu behind himself. From his face, it was obvious that Fu had told him about everything.

"Who are you? How did you enter this village?" Shibuki asked him tensely.

Shiroken greeted him kindly, "Hello, I am Shiroken, Supreme Daimyo of Water Country, Wave Country and Dama Country, and this is Shisui."

After listening to his various titles, Shibuki jolted back. However, he had never heard about there being a Supreme Daimyo, though he didn't ask more since he knew his village had less to no contact with the outer world.

"I am Shibuki, the head of Takigakure, how can I help you? How did you find this village?" Shibuki questioned them.

"From the air, of course. I came here by flying, and the reason is pretty simple. I am here to take back Chomei, the seven tails back to his home. Back to his family." Shiroken directly revealed his intentions. He didn't sound very nice though.

Shibuki jumped back with Fu and took out his kunai. "What do you mean take back? The seven tails belong to us. We bought it from Hashirama."

That was all that was needed to spoil Shiroken's mood. Anybody who calls his family their "Property" will never get much goodwill from him.

*BOOM*

Shiroken punched the ground loudly and plunged his hand into it. "Fools, Tailed beasts are centuries-old beings, they are nobody's property, and they are free and intelligent beings. YOU HUMANS, are only alive because they didn't wipe you out even when they could. And this is how you repay them? By calling them your property? Now you will feel despair, you have brought it on yourself."

Shibuki was honestly scared out of his wits at the moment, he didn't know why the man turned so angry all of a sudden.

However, it frightened him when he heard the man talk about making them feel despair. He looked around, all the people had stopped dancing and were staring at them.

But then he looked past them, at the jungle and the giant tree that sheltered the whole village making it hidden from the world. His face was filled with horror, noticing the withering trees, the Giant tree was withering, looking dry and dying more and more each passing second.

"THE GREAT TREE!" He exclaimed loudly.

This brought the focus of everyone to it and they saw the dying forest. It was all happening at a visible speed. All leaves started falling down, turning the jungle around them into a barren-looking land with a field of dead trees.

Shibuki immediately knew what was causing it. He looked at Shiroken and at the tree, it couldn't be a coincidence. These trees were the lifeline of the village, their death would mean the end of the village.

He ran up to him, "Please stop, don't kill the trees."

"Why? Just like you said, the seven-tails is yours because you think he is, now I'm saying these trees are mine because I think they are, as I hold the bigger stick I get to decide what I do with it. However, there is only one way to save the forest, let's exchange. I take Chomei while you take the forest." Shiroken offered.

This was akin to blackmailing them with their own thing. But, in Shiroken's eyes, Chomei was nobody's property.

"FU, tell your people, tell them what Chomei has to say," Shiroken ordered.

Fu of course knew Chomei and could talk to him, so she could also tell the villagers.

"He's right, Shibuki, I have talked to Chom-Chom, he is very nice and intelligent. He also confirmed to me that he knows this man." She tried to convince everyone.

"SHUT UP! You are told to be quiet." A few villagers barked at her.

Shiroken raised an eyebrow. He was wondering why would they treat the village's Jinchuriki so badly? Because, as far as he could understand, Naruto was being hated because of the Kurama attack, but here he knew there was no such attack.

*BOOM*

He plunged his other hand into the ground and increased the speed of killing the forest, "Apologise to Fu, or this won't stop."

Everyone panicked and after a moment of pause, they apologised. Though they were just saying it and didn't mean it.

"Now, as Fu said, Chomei is a free being. I have a way to get him out without harming her, as I have done with many others. So, you have 2 choices, either politely agree to let me take Chomei back, or I beat you all and kill this jungle then take Chomei out. Choose wisely and quickly." He announced.

People felt the clock was ticking over their heads. Though this was the decision of the village head and not the people.

Shibuki turned to Fu and asked her, "Are you sure? What if the tailed beast is lying to you?"

"I don't think so. I've been talking to him for years, and he never harmed me or got angry at me. He's a very gentle being." She assured him.

Shibuki wanted to at least fight for it, but seeing the state of the jungle, he held himself back. There weren't many strong ninjas in the village anyway.

While they were discussing this, Shiroken whispered something to Shisui. He had already scanned the whole village and its surrounding with his nature sense and he knew where this hero water was stored.

"Go and get a few spoons of the Hero Water. It's located under that giant tree." He ordered.

Shisui nodded and vanished from the spot, not letting anyone see where he was headed to.

"Make a quick decision, I don't have all day here." Shiroken nudged them, taking their uneasiness to the next level.

"We... We agree, but we will be present there when you take out the beast." Shibuki demanded.

Shiroken immediately agreed, "You can, let's do it right here since we need an open area to do it."

He quickly stopped destroying the jungle and created a table for Fu to lay down. "It will be painful so it's better to make you unconscious."

Fu scaredly nodded and came forward. The people of the village hated her anyway so no one objected for the beast to be taken away. They did not know the importance of having a tailed beast safeguard them. To them, they were just scary beasts.

She soon laid down on the table, looking at the sky. She kept quiet but she was scared internally. "How long will it take?"

"Half an hour at most. Don't worry, I know what I am doing." He assured her and then put his palm on her forehead. A second later her eyes closed and she fell unconscious.

Fu's seal was not really visible on her body, but it was still there. He put his palm on the seal and broke it. Though he made sure Chomei didn't jump out from there.

As soon as he was in contact with the seal, he could talk to Chomei directly.

"HEHE, how are you, Chomei?" He talked.

"HOMESICK! QUICK, QUICK. LET ME OUT!" Chomei excitedly replied.

Shiroken then did the same procedure as he did with Utakata and Rin. He first started to take Chomei out while filling the void left by his Chakra leaving.

After 20 minutes, with a loud boom, Chomei's giant form jumped out of the seal and landed in the open space. "FINALLY! FREEDOM!"

Shiroken chuckled and continued to heal Fu. The people on the other hand whimpered in fear and shrank their necks. Some weak-willed ran or passed out right there.

"Just a minute more," Shiroken announced.

...

Unknown Location,

A lot of black-robed people had gathered in a cave. Their robes had a red cloud pattern on them. However, these people were not physically in that location, instead, these were their holograms made of chakra. This was why their faces and bodies mostly looked translucent with a hint of many colours.

Then a man with spiky hair and circular patterned eyes purple eyes spoke, "The problem is not small. Our goal to catch all the tailed beasts has become much harder. Someone else is also catching the beasts, but for an entirely different purpose. And we cannot fight that person directly as he is too strong."

"Hah, how strong can he be? I will explode him with my art." One of them enthusiastically said.

"No, that won't even scratch him. We need to be covert and take the tailed beasts without him knowing. And we need to focus on the beasts that are still out there and catch them before he does. So now, two teams will be going for each tailed beast. We will overpower them and take them at all costs." The purpled eyes man ordered everyone.

With this, their meeting came to an end, with a new goal. To get the beasts as quickly as possible.
