Naruto: I'm Nine-Tails and My Host is Kushina

At this moment, the entire Hidden Mist Village—shinobi and civilians alike—were shattered by fear and despair.

"This... this is really a Tailed Beast Bomb!"

"But how?! Even a Tailed Beast shouldn't be able to make one that massive!"

A colossal black sphere hovered above the village, pulsing with dense chakra. It was enough to annihilate everything.

If that thing dropped, the whole of Kirigakure would be wiped off the map.

Kurama clapped mockingly, a twisted smile playing across his lips.

"Now then," he said, tone smug and glib, "can you hand over the Six-Tails' Jinchūriki?"

Master Genji and Terumi Mei stood at the forefront, visibly shaken. Terumi Mei's cheeks, already glistening with sweat, burned crimson with rage.

"You're threatening us?"

"Threatening? Tch. I'm negotiating openly. I'd call that fair, wouldn't you?"

Behind them, the Hidden Mist shinobi looked on in horror. If that massive Tailed Beast Bomb detonated, it wouldn't just be the shinobi that died. Civilians, children, the elderly—all would be vaporized in the blast.

Terumi Mei gritted her teeth. "If that thing explodes, you'll be caught in it too!"

Kurama scoffed, eyes glowing with malevolent amusement. "Please. I can create a Tailed Beast Bomb that size. What makes you think I can't dodge it? Only a moron would die with a bunch of you scrubs."

"You...!"

Terumi Mei couldn't even finish. She knew she'd already lost the argument.

Master Genji let out a long, weary sigh. "So... you're after Utakata, the Six-Tails' host?"

Kurama grinned. "Of course. You think I came all this way to see your charming face, old man?"

Genji's eyes narrowed, thoughtful.

"Kurama-sama... are you behind the recent disappearances of the tailed beasts across the nations?"

He was no fool. After witnessing Kurama's godlike power firsthand, he dared not speak with anything but respect.

"Guilty as charged," Kurama replied. "But look, I'm doing everyone a favor. This is all about maintaining balance among the tailed beasts."

"Balance?" The Mist shinobi murmured, confused.

Kurama launched into a twisted version of history—the same half-truths he once fed the Third Raikage.

"Ever since the First Five Kage Summit, the nations thought having a few tailed beasts around kept the peace. Kinda dumb when you think about it. Sunagakure had Shukaku. You guys had Isobu and Saiken. Kumo got Matatabi and Gyūki. Iwa hoarded Son Gokū and Kokuō. And Konoha—yeah, Konoha had me, the Nine-Tails."

He waved a hand dismissively.

"But did that prevent war? Hell no. First Shinobi War, Second, Third. They broke out anyway. So much for the 'balance.'"

His voice hardened.

"But think—what if none of the villages had tailed beasts? That's real balance."

Genji rubbed his chin. It did make a twisted kind of sense.

"But... aren't you from Konoha?"

Kurama scoffed. "From Konoha? Nah. I just live there. Rent's cheap, and the food's decent. Hell, if you're offering, I could move in here."

Genji froze. That was the last thing he wanted—this human calamity living in his backyard.

Kurama casually pointed skyward.

"By the way, you guys know what happened to Sunagakure?"

Mist Shinobi: "What?! What happened?"

Kurama smirked. "It's gone."

Simple. Direct. Terrifying.

Under normal circumstances, no one would've believed him. Sunagakure might be declining, but it was still one of the Five Great Villages.

But in this moment, standing beneath an apocalyptic Tailed Beast Bomb, every shinobi in the Mist believed it.

Master Genji inhaled slowly, then turned to his guards.

"Bring Utakata."

"Yes, Master Genji!"

Terumi Mei whipped around, eyes wide. "Master Genji, you can't be serious!"

He placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Terumi Mei, being a shinobi isn't just about strength. It's about sacrifice. Our duty is to protect the village, not one Jinchūriki."

"But—"

"We serve the Hidden Mist. If we all die here, what future does this village have?"

Terumi Mei was left speechless. She clenched her fists, bitter but silent.

Kurama grinned. That familiar glare from a beautiful woman? A sweet bonus.

Master Genji stepped forward with a solemn bow.

"Kurama-sama. I heard that the Eight-Tails' host survived after the beast was extracted. If we give you Utakata, can you spare his life?"

His voice was pleading, almost reverent.

Kurama tilted his head. "Hmm... that depends. But hey, I'm a reasonable guy. We can work something out."

A short time later, Utakata was brought forward, confused and wary. The battlefield was littered with unconscious Mist shinobi, the sky still darkened by that monstrous sphere.

"Master Genji, what's going on?"

Genji didn't reply. Instead, he nodded to Kurama.

Kurama stepped forward and stared directly at Utakata.

"Hey, Saiken! You comfy in there or what?"

Inside Utakata, the Six-Tails stirred.

"That voice... Kurama? Is that really you?!"

"Of course it is. Who else sounds this devilishly charming?"

Utakata stiffened. He could feel the inner conversation happening. This man was talking directly to the beast sealed within him.

"How is this possible?" he whispered.

Saiken grunted. "Kurama, what do you want? You know we hate humans. Every one of them just wants our power."

Kurama chuckled. "Oh, come on, don't lump me in with them. You should see me now. I got a nice place in Konoha, a hot spring membership, and I'm living like a damn emperor."

Saiken paused. "Wait... you're... in human form? Why? You're the one who hated them the most."

"Yeah, yeah. Life's full of contradictions. I don't explain myself to every tail that asks."

He smirked again.

"But look—the gang's all here. Shukaku, Matatabi, Isobu, Son Gokū, Kokuō, Gyūki, me. We're just missing you."

Saiken hesitated. He could feel their presence... all of them.

"What the hell, Kurama?! Why didn't you call me when everyone got together?"

Kurama laughed, loud and amused. "Good question, Six! Maybe next time check your DMs."

Utakata blinked, still lost.

"Who are you?"

Kurama looked down at him.

"Kid, I'm the Nine-Tails. And I'm here to collect. Don't worry. You'll live. Probably."

Utakata braced himself.

Kurama reached forward, golden chakra spiraling around his palm.

Master Genji turned away, unable to watch.
