I just want to be lazy, I was forced to become Hokage

In the desolate desert, Nara Langui's words drifted far away in the wind.

Shukaku, who was the protagonist of the topic, was stunned on the spot.

"free……?"

Ichibi Shukaku's dark yellow eyes stared straight at Nara Langui.

The opponent's figure was clearly reflected in its weird cross-shaped pupils.

It seems like this, Ichibi Shukaku can completely see through the other person's personality.

at the same time.

Ichibi Shukaku's mind was also flashing back to his "beast" life.

How many years has passed since it was first sealed by humans?

Ichibi Shukaku could not give an accurate answer.

It only knows that during the long years it was sealed by the Ninja Temple in the Kingdom of Wind.

It is such an "ignorant" tailed beast, but it has successfully learned a special ability that is only for humans - the sealing technique.

free?

What a luxurious and empty dream!

"Humanity."

Ichibi Shukaku's voice suddenly dropped, no longer as sharp and harsh as before.

"Are you teasing me?

"Even if I can't beat you, I still want you to know that the dignity of a tailed beast cannot be easily toyed with!"

After saying this, Ichibi Shukaku raised his hand, as if he wanted to slap Nara Langui flat in the desert.

"No, I'm serious, Shukaku."

Nara Langui looked directly at Ichibi Shukaku and said calmly.

"When you arrive in Konoha, I can take you directly to see King Mu.

"During the Five Kage Conference decades ago, King Mu was sold to Iwagakure Village by the First Hokage as a bargaining chip. Since then, it has become the sealed tailed beast of Iwagakure Village.

"In three battles, I defeated and captured the Five-Tailed Jinchuuriki of Iwagakure Village, and freed King Mu from the opponent's seal.

"King Mu, it now lives in the Nara clan's exclusive forest as a free tailed beast."

After listening to Nara Langui's words.

Ichibi Shukaku's first reaction was jealousy.

Not questioning.

Just jealous!

Why was King Mu only sealed away for a few decades?

Why was it only sealed for a few decades but still able to be freed early?

Why is it that it is not it that is freed, but the big white deer that just knows how to run around? !

hateful!

hateful! !

Shukaku's violent mood swings directly caused its chakra to go berserk. Groups of yellow gravel surrounded its body, making irregular movements.

"Roar--"

Shukaku looked up to the sky and roared, trying his best to vent the anger and dissatisfaction in his heart.

Nara Langui quietly watched Ichibi Shukaku venting his anger without speaking to disturb him.

In fact.

After many people learned about Uzumaki Naruto's personal experience, they felt sorry for the "Prince" and thought that the first half of his life was so, so miserable.

As soon as he was born, both his parents died. As a Jinchuuriki of the Nine-Tails, he has been living in the hostility and rejection of others. He can't even make many friends, and he can only drink expired milk on weekdays... and so on. .

However.

When more people have a more comprehensive understanding of the life experiences of other ninjas in the ninja world, they will realize this -

Uzumaki Naruto's life was indeed very miserable.

But in the ninja world, his miserable life even feels like he is not ranked!

Not to mention Konoha ninjas like Uchiha Sasuke and Hatake Kakashi.

At this time, Gaara's life, standing in front of Nara Langui, was far more miserable than that of Uzumaki Naruto.

The same son of the Yondaime, the same tailed beast Jinchūriki, the same deeply protected by his mother...

During his growth stage, Uzumaki Naruto at least had the care and support of Hiruzen Sarutobi, Iruka Umino and others.

What does Gaara have?

and.

This "tragic contrast" can also be placed on the tailed beasts in Uzumaki Naruto and Gaara!

Was Kyuubi's life miserable?

Of course it’s miserable!

After being pinched by [Immortal Technique, Wood Release, True Thousand Hands, and Buddha on the Top], Kyuubi began his life as a prisoner.

But before Kyuubi was sealed by the Uzumaki clan.

Shukaku has been sealed for who knows how many years!

I do not know how long it has been.

Shukaku finally stopped roaring.

It suddenly lay down, crawled, and put its big head in front of Nara Langui.

"Human-no! N-Nara? Naruto?"

Shukaku said somewhat incoherently.

"Let me out! I want to be free! Help me unlock the seal!!"

"Calm down, Shukaku."

Nara Langui raised his hands and pressed them down.

"I can promise you freedom, in the name of the Fourth Hokage.

"But, not now."

"Why?!"

Shukaku's mood became even more excited.

"Are you lying to me!

"I knew you humans were all a bunch of liars! Bastards! Villains! Worse than tailed beasts!"

"Tsk!"

Nara Langui rubbed his eyebrows in distress, and then released the [Shadow Sutra Technique] again, forcibly controlling the aggrieved Shukaku.

The dark locks bound Shukaku, and this time, even its mouth was not spared.

"Can you calm down?"

Nara Langui looked at Shukaku angrily.

"Wink at me twice if you can."

Shukaku stared at Nara Langui quite unconvinced.

The two sides were in a stalemate for a while.

Shukaku finally gave in.

Its small eyes that were disproportionate to its huge body blinked hard twice, looking inexplicably pitiful.

Upon seeing this, Nara Langui removed the [Shadow Suspension Technique] again and gave a warning at the same time.

"Speak carefully. If you get so excited again later, I will put you in a 'little dark room'."

In order to show that his words have enough deterrence, Nara Langui also used the Nine Tails as an example.

"The Uzumaki clan has specially developed a sealing technique called [Tail Sealing Seal] specifically for tailed beasts.

“This sealing technique is countless times stronger than the sealing technique in Sand Hidden Village.

"Even the Nine-Tails can't break free from the sealing space of the [Tail-Sealing Seal]."

"My strength is not comparable to that of that stinky fox..."

Shukaku complained softly, but still didn't dare to explode directly.

"Human, what exactly did you mean by what you just said?"

Nara Langui did not answer this question directly, but asked a rhetorical question.

"Shukaku, what is your current identity?"

"Me? I'm the tailed beast!"

"What I'm asking is...forget it."

Nara Langui waved his hand and explained directly.

"What I mean is that you and Gaara, the Jinchuuriki, now exist as one body."

"I don't like this red-haired brat!"

Shukaku said in a loud voice.

"And didn't you just say that? You rescued King Mu from the body of that Five-Tailed Jinchuuriki.

"Can't you get me out now?"

Nara Langui smiled and suddenly started talking about another topic.

"Do you know how many Jinchuuriki there are in Konoha Village now?"

"How would I know!"

"Excluding Gaara and you, the jinchūriki of Mata Ryu, Isofu, and Kurama are all in Konoha, and Gyuuki was released a few years ago."

Nara Langui explained.

"With so many tailed beasts, only King Mu is absolutely free now."

"Why?"

Shukaku scratched his head, completely confused.

"Why Five Tails?"

"because I like it."

Nara Langui gave impeccable reasons.

"You and King Mu are different."

Shukaku felt a clear malice.

"Actually, I told Isofu the same thing."

Nara Langui made another stab.

"Although it may be a bit excessive to say this, but I really don't look down on your power now."

Damn humans! !

Shukaku roared loudly in his heart.

If it weren't for the fact that it really couldn't beat Nara Langui, it would definitely have killed the guy who embarrassed it now!

Isn't Naruto amazing?

The First Hokage was an asshole.

The Fourth Hokage is also a bastard! !

The angry Shukaku slapped the ground hard and completely lost the idea of ​​chatting with Nara Langui.

Although this human's fair and just attitude towards the tailed beast is commendable.

But the other party seems to be particularly fond of that ugly five-tailed monster!

"Shukaku, let's make a promise!"

Nara Langui said.

“Try to accept Gaara.

"The day you reconcile with Gaara, I will give you another chance to choose."

"Disgusting humans!"

Shukaku retreated into the seal.

"I don't believe you!"

Second update.

Goodnight everybody
