Kaede stood there, looking awed at the sight of the Kyuubi, and it isn't for nothing

The massive 50 meters tall fox, could dwarf Shukaku, maybe they had the same height, but their presence was a completely different level...

[who... no, what are you?] the Kyuubi asked

<Notice

detected the use of a skill on user with the purpose of info gathering

unable to stop it>

"You... you can use skills?" Kaede looked even more surprised by that, even breaking her no-emotions mask in the process

[You underestimate me, kid... I see, an otherworlder, huh? it has been a while since I last saw one...]

'That... is surprising...' Kaede got shocked, never would she expect that one of the bijuus would know what an otherworlder is, much less have met one before

[So, what do you want, brat?] Kurama asked, now bored

One of his only ways of entertainment was scaring his jailor or any unwanted guest, unfortunately the dead demon consuming seal was a tad bit too strong for him to contact Naruto willy nilly, but recently he had quite some visitors

"Well, you see... I wanted to make a deal with you" Kaede said

[Not interested] Kurama immediately answered, not even bothering to hear Kaede's so called 'deal', because from what he saw from otherworlders before...

"Ehh, why? I didn't even tell you what the deal was about!" Kaede said, very annoyed by Kurama's nonchalance

[It will be something about me giving you pr the kid chakra, it is always like this, and besides

what can a meager slime offer the great ME? servitude? I doubt that, Power? I have already. Skills? I have the ones I need

You have nothing that interest me, so get out]

"...

What a grumpy fox

..." Kaede muttered

[What did you say?] Asked angrily the Kyuubi

"Freedom!" Kaede said without a hint of a context

[... I am sorry, what?] Confused asked Kurama

"I offer you freedom, can't the great Kyuubi understand such a simple offer?" Kaede said, mocking Kurama back because of it's previous lack of interest

[Brat, watch your tone with me

And, what do you mean freedom? I highly doubt you can do such thing]

"Well, you see

I have already have a meeting with the weakest bijuu, so.." Kaede then manipulated a bit of sand, showing it to Kurama

[What did you do to him?] He sounded bored, but the concern was visible on his face

'Tsundere fox...'

"He is currently undergoing Bijuu ressurection, can't you feel it?"

[I could, but the seal is blocking most of my skills... anyway, what does Shukaku have to do with your deal?]

"Well, you see Foxy, I have this one skill that allows me to absorb anything, like I did with Shukaku

But just like with him, I have no use for keeping a bijuu's conscious/ego with me, so I freed him, and plan to do the same with you, if you agree"

'Even if you disagree...'

[You could use it to awaken a hero egg, couldn't you?] Kurama said, mostly testing Kaede's greed and knowledge

"Meh, A monster can't be a hero, and from monster to monster, kyuubi... you are my favorite bijuu, so I would like to help you out"

[... I could accept your 'deal', but for that I need a guarantee about Shukaku's situation an-]

"Awww, the big fox is worried about his little sibling?

...

I know the fee-... Knew the feel...

...

Anyway, I can make your current 'jailer' loose control of his emotions for a bit, during that time can you confirm it?"

[I AM NOT WORRIED ABOUT THAT DAMN TANUKI!!!

And yes, I could... But won't you be scared about me overtaking the kid's conscious?] Kurama asked with a smirk, changing topics

"Sure, sure... whatever you say...

Also, please do it, if you remove that annoyance early, it would be very helpful for me, and if you DO overtake him... then nothing, I guess?

Is that a deal?"

[...Consider yourself lucky, brat!

For I, the great Kyuubi decided to accept your offer!]

"Then it is settled, oh and by the way, my name is Rimuru, but they currently call me Kaede, it is a bit late but

Nice to meet you Kyuubi-san!" Kaede said as she walked back to her side of the mindscape

[...Kurama...]

"What?" Kaede looked back, widening her eyes in surprise

[My name is Kurama, brat

Take this as my trust in you]

['And my respect for a strong individual, since every otherworlder is one... Not that I would tell you that...']

"..." Kaede kept staring at Kurama, without saying a word

[...Something wrong, brat?] Kurama asked, noticing her gaze

"N-No... you... thank you...

I know you bijuus value your names a lot..."

[Stop, that isn't such a big deal...

From demon to monster, we have more in common than you think

Now go brat, before I change my mind!] Kurama said as he laid back to his 'sleeping' position

'Monster... how should I feel about being called that?... but again, is he wrong? Asides from being a monster physically, ain't I one mentally as well?

I did some pretty messes up stuff after all... but who cares, monster or not, evil or good, this is me, and I don't need to think about such stupid stuff'

"Then, wait just a bit Kurama-san I will help you out"

[Just go already!]

"Hehe, impatient aren't you? ok, I am off" Kaede said as she entered her mindscape and left Naruto's mindscape

After she was gone, Kurama looked at where she was previously

[...] His face full of questions, but silence was all that echoed, or didn't, on the mindscape...

Once again proving that Naruto's mind was empty...
