Chapter 109 Snatching People from the Grim Reaper

"Kurama, I'm telling you as a fellow Tailed Beast, don't be so ignorant!" Gyuki said with displeasure, but secretly looked forward to seeing how the proud Nine-Tailed Fox would be beaten later.

"Gyuki, don't bother with him. Since he wants to die so badly, let him. He's always looked down on us anyway!" Matatabi sat squatting on the side, speaking irritably. The Nine-Tailed Fox believed that the more tails one had, the stronger they were, and often mocked the other Tailed Beasts, especially the one-tailed Shukaku and Matatabi with only two tails.

"Hmph, weaklings with only two tails, don't talk to me!" The Nine-Tailed Fox sneered at Matatabi, believing itself to be the strongest among the nine Tailed Beasts. The fact that it had nine tails alone spoke volumes. Weaklings like Matatabi with fewer tails and Shukaku, the weakest of them all, were not worthy of comparison.

"Huh, nine tails are really impressive, but you're still locked up in a cage!" Three-Tails Isobu came in and poured salt on the Nine-Tailed Fox's wounds, and even added some cumin. "And if I'm not mistaken, you're only half of what you used to be!"

"No wonder you have such a bad temper. It's because you're only half of what you used to be!" Gyuki and Matatabi burst out laughing, rare to see the Nine-Tailed Fox in such a sorry state. It was only right to mock him for all the years he had bullied them.

"You guys are bastards, helping humans to bully your own kind. Don't you have any conscience?" The Nine-Tailed Fox's chakra raged, but the sealing technique passed down from the Uzumaki clan was too strong. The iron cage didn't budge even with his full force.

"You say we have no conscience? Nine-Tailed Fox, you bastard, didn't you bully us before?" Three-Tails Isobu snorted coldly. Among the nine Tailed Beasts, the Nine-Tailed Fox was the most beloved by the Six Paths Sage, and the result of receiving such favor was that its strength surpassed that of the other Tailed Beasts. When they lived together, the Nine-Tailed Fox often bullied them using its strength.

"Hmph, that's because you guys were too weak!" The Nine-Tailed Fox felt no psychological pressure. "If you have the ability, you can bully me too!"

"We're bullying you right now!" Matatabi's words made the Nine-Tailed Fox half-dead with anger.

The commotion caused by the Tailed Beasts soon attracted everyone's attention.

"I didn't expect the legendary Tailed Beasts to have such a side. I thought they were all irrational!" Minato was surprised. The Tailed Beasts were almost always portrayed as ferocious and bloodthirsty, when had anyone ever seen them bickering like this?

"The Two-Tails has a gentle personality, Three-Tails is more of the silent type, and as for the Eight-Tails..." When Gyuki was mentioned, Uchiha Fugaku's forehead veins couldn't help but throb. "I don't know where he picked up his habit, he loves humming strange songs all day long, it's simply mental pollution!"

"I'm telling you guys, do you have to hurt each other here? Clearly, you can only act like cowards in front of the Ten-Tails, but you think you're so great when you fight among yourselves!" Sakura spoke up, causing the Tailed Beasts to quiet down. "You have a common enemy, but you don't know how to unite against it. Instead, you fight each other. No wonder you have no future!"

Several Tailed Beasts wanted to refute Sakura, but upon careful consideration, they realized that what she said was true. Their power was strong against ordinary ninjas, but when facing the Ten-Tails, they were completely outmatched. It was like a father disciplining his child, effortlessly defeating them. Even the likes of Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju could easily defeat them, let alone the Ten-Tails. It was a sad reality.

After reconciling with the four Tailed Beasts, Sakura went to Kushina and took hold of her right hand.

"I'll bring Kushina back from the Pure Land first. Otherwise, relying on chakra alone, you won't be able to hold out for long!"

The yellow soul gem and the blue Space Stone both lit up, and the entire sky seemed to be dyed in blue and yellow. A huge sense of oppression appeared in everyone's hearts. The Two-Tails and Uchiha Fugaku didn't feel anything, but the Nine-Tailed Fox was full of suspicion. Why did he feel that this power was even stronger than the Six Paths Sage?!

Using the connection between chakra and the soul, the Space Stone quickly located Kushina, and the soul gem directly pulled her soul back.

The moment Uzumaki Kushina's soul appeared, Sakura's grip quickly fused with her chakra. After a while, Uzumaki Kushina's figure reappeared. Compared to her previously ethereal appearance, she now had a solid feeling.

"It actually worked!" Uzumaki Kushina looked at her body in surprise. She didn't expect to be able to continue accompanying Naruto for another day.

"Next is Uncle Minato. Everyone should step back a bit, in case Grim Reaper hurts you!"

Sakura put her hand on Minato's body, and the blue and yellow light shone again. Faint, eerie laughter echoed in the sky.

"It's here..."

As Sakura's words fell, a phantom figure appeared in mid-air. Messy hair, double horns on the forehead, a short knife in the mouth, a string of prayer beads in the left hand, black eerie curse marks on the arm, and a fierce appearance.

The moment Grim Reaper was pulled out, Sakura directly activated the soul gem, forcibly controlling Grim Reaper. However, the veins bulging on Sakura's forehead indicated the immense pressure she was under.

"Hehe..."

Faint laughter echoed around Grim Reaper, and the Grim Reaper, who was forcibly controlled, took out the knife from its mouth and cut open its abdomen.

Minato's soul, which belonged to him, emerged from the wound in Grim Reaper's abdomen and quickly fused with his own chakra.

In the sky, the injured Grim Reaper took a glance at the people below and disappeared without a trace. Seeing this, Sakura breathed a sigh of relief, her body swaying as she fell to the ground weakly.

"Sakura..." Naruto quickly supported her, and the others also gathered around with worried expressions. Although they didn't face Grim Reaper head-on, they still felt the soul-shaking sense of oppression. Even as bystanders, they had to endure so much pressure. How much did Sakura endure facing Grim Reaper?!

"Don't worry, I'm okay..." Sakura rubbed her temples, her face pale. Although the soul gem could control the spirits, the Grim Reaper she had just faced was still the Grim Reaper of this world. Forcibly controlling Grim Reaper was a huge burden on Sakura, and this was still the result of Grim Reaper not resisting.
