Tailed beasts will one day coexist with humans.
This is the future the Sage of Six Paths envisioned.
Although he would not live to see that day, he always believed it would come.
"Has the Nine-Tails, Kurama, really become such a tailed beast?" Four-Tails, Son Gokū, muttered in disbelief.
Of all the tailed beasts, it was Kurama who was the first to find harmony with humans.
"Are we the ones falling behind?" Son Gokū wondered.
"Hey, Kurama, explain something to me. Why the hell do you have to use swords and weapons like this?" Son Gokū groaned, looking utterly defeated.
"Oh? You still have complaints?" Kurama smirked, his multiple tails tightly binding Son Gokū while the Adamantine Sealing Chains of the Uzumaki Clan ensured he couldn't move an inch.
Son Gokū groaned. "Alright, alright... Brother Ninth, look, how about letting me go?"
Kurama's grin widened. "No can do, Son. You're a wild tailed beast roaming the world. Do you have any idea how many shinobi would love to get their hands on your power? The world is full of sealing techniques. There's no telling when someone might seal you inside another Jinchūriki."
"Tch…"
Son Gokū thought about it. Kurama had a point. There wasn't a shinobi alive who wouldn't want to control a tailed beast's power. And no matter how strong they were, the one thing they couldn't fight against was being sealed.
Kurama, seeing his hesitation, didn't waste a second.
Boom!
With a surge of power, Kurama pulled Son Gokū into the colossal Susanoo that surrounded him.
Then the fusion began.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you are integrating with Four-Tails, Son Gokū.]
Son Gokū let out a roar of frustration. "Kurama, you damn fox! Sneak attacks?! No martial ethics?! You just pulled me in without a warning! I wasn't even ready!"
But what could he do?
His limbs were bound, his power was being absorbed, and his fate was sealed.
He could neither struggle nor resist.
Son Gokū sighed in defeat. "Ah well… Might as well enjoy the process. At least I won't be alone."
Indeed, One-Tail Shukaku, Two-Tails Matatabi, Three-Tails Isobu, and Eight-Tails Gyūki had already undergone the same fate.
From a certain perspective, merging with Kurama wasn't the worst thing that could happen. At least it was better than being forced into some shinobi's body.
A fair trade.
Kurama, the big brother of the tailed beasts, had taken it upon himself to change their fate.
For centuries, the tailed beasts had been enslaved, sealed, and weaponized by shinobi.
Now, the tables were turning.
Kurama had decided it was time for their kind to stand tall.
And if anyone was going to lead them, it had to be him.
Son Gokū, despite his protests, couldn't help but cheer Kurama on.
"Go, Kurama! Don't let us tailed beasts down!"
[0.5%... 5%... 26%... 35%... 41%... 100%]
[Congratulations, host. Full integration with Four-Tails, Son Gokū, completed.]
Kurama placed a clawed hand on his stomach, feeling the new surge of power coursing through him.
"Not a bad haul from the Land of Earth," he mused.
Meanwhile, Roshi, the former Jinchūriki of Son Gokū, collapsed from the now-faded Susanoo.
Without a tailed beast, his fate was sealed.
Unlike members of the Uzumaki Clan, who could barely survive for a little while after losing their beast, normal shinobi had no such luxury.
Roshi's body twitched for a moment.
Then, silence.
The Four-Tails' Jinchūriki was dead.
Within the massive Susanoo, Uchiha Mikoto blushed slightly.
This was her first time fighting side by side with Lord Kurama.
No…
It was more than fighting side by side.
It was fusion combat.
Her Susanoo had completely enveloped Kurama's Nine-Tails form, merging their powers seamlessly.
"So this… This is what it feels like to use Susanoo as a battle suit? Amazing…"
She chuckled softly to herself.
Kurama, noticing her distraction, waved a paw in front of her face. "Oi, Mikoto, you still with me?"
"Ah! Yes, Lord Kurama! I'm fine!" she replied quickly, snapping out of her thoughts.
"Good. Susanoo's not needed anymore, so you can dispel it."
"Oh..." Mikoto hesitated. She liked this feeling. It was intoxicating.
But Kurama had spoken.
With a sigh, she obeyed, retracting her Susanoo.
The Nine-Tails Chakra dissipated, and the two began their descent from the sky.
Kurama effortlessly caught Mikoto, wrapping an arm around her waist.
She rested against his chest with a dreamy look. "Ahh… Lord Kurama's arms are such a warm harbor…"
"Lord Kurama, I want a hug too!"
A new voice interrupted the moment.
With a flash of red, Uzumaki Kushina appeared in full Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, her speed near-instantaneous.
Within seconds, she was pressed against Kurama's other side, her head nuzzling against him.
"Hehehe, Mikoto, I won't let you monopolize him!"
Mikoto sighed. "Kushina… You…"
Kurama just grinned, enjoying the situation.
"Alright, alright. The mission's over. Let's head back to the village. Oh, and Kushina, don't forget Karura."
"Of course not! How could I forget my adorable little maid?"
At that moment, Karura was approaching, encased in a protective sand sphere, but her speed paled in comparison to Kushina's.
Before she could react, a chakra-formed hand wrapped around her waist.
"Wha—?!"
"Oops, you're a bit slow," Kushina giggled, pulling Karura into Kurama's grasp.
Kurama activated the Flying Thunder God Technique.
Whoosh!
In an instant, they were back in Konoha.
Karura blinked in confusion. "Wait… Weren't we just in the Land of Earth a second ago?"
Kushina smirked. "Heh, you'll get used to it. Kurama's speed isn't even the real problem. We're the ones who surrender first."
Karura looked utterly lost.
Meanwhile, deep within the Land of Earth, at a desolate waterfall, a shadowy figure emerged from the ground.
Zetsu.
Black and White Zetsu had fully merged.
He gazed at the lifeless body of Roshi.
"Tsk… Too late again."
However, the battlefield was rich with clues this time.
Zetsu smirked.
"With this information, I now know exactly which shinobi to target in Konoha."
His smile grew wider.
"Madara-sama will be very interested in this news…"
