Forced to sell misery

The collapsed Nanga Shrine.

The dissipated Nine-Tails Chakra protected Naruto's body. Lying in the ruins under the stone tablet, Naruto was still in a coma.

While the Anbu were attacking the Four-Tailed Demon Fox, Sasuke rushed into the shrine and saw Naruto who had lost consciousness in the ruins.

Sighing a little in relief, Sasuke leapt over the crumbling rubble and walked over to Naruto's side.

"Hey, Naruto!"

And at the moment when Sasuke touched Naruto, the Nine-Tails Chakra that escaped from Naruto's body wrapped around him -

His fingers were instantly burned and Sasuke was forced to withdraw his hand.

Tailed Beast Coat...?

While protecting Naruto, it will also corrode everything that comes close to Naruto...

Sasuke looked at his fingers that were burned by the Nine-Tails' chakra - the scarlet chakra was extremely corrosive, and it was still spreading to his palm.

He couldn't even touch him, there was no way he could take Naruto out now!

How to do?

Sasuke thought about it for a long time but couldn't think of any way to solve the problem of the Nine-Tails chakra escaping from Naruto's body...

Sharingan, sealing jutsu…now he can’t use any of them!

After all, this body is only that of a 7-year-old child...the powers he possessed in his previous life are simply unusable!

But there was no extra time for him to come up with a solution -

Outside the shrine, the Four-Tailed Demon Fox was completely enraged after being continuously bombarded by the Anbu with various ninjutsu. All the surrounding buildings were destroyed during the battle, and the battle also affected the Nanga Shrine.

In the half-collapsed shrine, rubble continued to fall.

Sasuke gritted his teeth and dodged the falling rubble. He saw that all objects close to Naruto were eroded by the Nine-Tails Chakra...

No, we have to leave here as soon as possible!

Naruto has the Nine-Tails' Chakra to protect him, but he doesn't!

But he couldn't leave Naruto here alone. Even if he had the unconscious protection of the Nine-Tails' Chakra, it didn't mean that Naruto was safe.

Corroded by the Nine-Tails' Chakra, Uchiha Jingye in the Four-Tails state has completely lost consciousness and has completely turned into a murderous monster!

——No one can guarantee that Jing Ye in this state will not hurt Naruto... Moreover, if the Nine-Tails' chakra completely runs wild and the Nine-Tails breaks the seal, then Naruto, as a Jinchūriki...

Not thinking about the worst possible outcome, Sasuke forced himself to calm down.

The current situation does not allow him to hesitate any longer!

Sasuke gritted his teeth and tried to carry Naruto on his back, but the moment their bodies touched, the Nine-Tails' chakra corroded his clothes and even burned his skin.

hateful!

Sasuke staggered to his knees, his hands shaking. He underestimated the damage of the Nine-Tails' chakra...

Suddenly, at this moment, the largest wooden beam on the roof finally couldn't hold up and collapsed.

Oops!

Body——can’t move!

The severe pain caused by the Nine-Tails' chakra eroding his skin made Sasuke unable to move. Now he couldn't even take out a kunai to stab himself.

Do you want to try to open the Mangekyō Sharingan?

The three magatama in the pupil were spinning, and the blurry pattern seemed to appear and disappear from time to time.

Sasuke covered his eyes with trembling hands. No...if he forced his Mangekyō Sharingan to open, he might pass out instantly.

Besides, it’s already—too late!

The heavy wooden beam fell down instantly!

"Chidori!"

Amid the flashes of lightning, all that can be heard is the mournful cries of thousands of birds!

This is--

Amid the flying wood chips, Sasuke turned his head and saw a familiar figure——

At the critical moment, Kakashi used the Lightning Release in his hand to shatter the falling wooden beam, protected Sasuke under him, and used his body to block the shattered wood.

"Cough," Kakashi coughed up blood, obviously suffering from serious internal injuries.

A few drops of blood splashed on his face, and Sasuke's pupils trembled.

"Are you Uchiha Sasuke?" Kakashi looked at Sasuke's three-magatama Sharingan with complicated feelings.

"Ah," Sasuke lowered his head, "Thank you very much..."

The sawdust settled, and Kakashi stood up shakily, walked to Naruto, was silent for a moment, bit his finger, and began to draw talismans on the ground around Naruto with the blood from his fingertips -

This familiar scene...

Sasuke instantly remembered the curse seal technique that Kakashi used to suppress Orochimaru in his previous life.

"Ka..." Suddenly remembering that he hadn't officially met Kakashi in this life, Sasuke paused, "Um, are you sure that the Sealing Evil Seal can suppress the Nine-Tails' Chakra?"

"We have to give it a try..."

Kakashi looked at Sasuke with a strange look, almost showing his signature dead fish eyes——

He didn't want to do that, but he had no better way. His chakra was almost exhausted - after suffering cruel mental torture in Tsukuyomi, Kakashi was now at the end of his strength.

Otherwise, how could the Chidori only have that little power to cut the wooden beam, and he had to use his body to resist the falling wood to protect the little ghost...

Kakashi sighed helplessly.

He felt that he really owed the Uchiha family...

Moreover, this kid is really something, as he actually knows the sealing technique he used.

Although he also felt that there was little hope, there was no better way now...

So Kakashi silently drew talismans on the ground with his bleeding fingers, and Sasuke quietly watched Kakashi draw the talisman -

Recalling the previous life, Kakashi's seal of evil could not even suppress Orochimaru's curse seal...

Sasuke was instantly in despair.

Sure enough, the moment the blood-colored rune approached Naruto, it was burned by the Nine-Tails' chakra...

The atmosphere fell into an awkward silence. Kakashi and Sasuke looked at each other in silence.

……

……

But the current situation does not allow the two to struggle any longer - the battle outside is getting more and more intense, and the collapse of the entire shrine has never stopped.

"Hey," Kakashi looked at Sasuke seriously, "Can you still move?"

The pain from the Nine-Tails' chakra burns eased a little, and Sasuke nodded.

"With the protection of the Tailed Beast Coat, the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki will not be in danger for the time being. The most urgent task now is to deal with the one outside..." Kakashi didn't know how to describe Jing Ye's current state...

Moreover, in Kakashi's opinion, Sasuke is still just a child... Even if he is the demon of the Uchiha family - 7 years old, with a three-magatama Sharingan... Kakashi is somewhat skeptical about his life.

However, because of Sasuke Uchiha's identity, he should not be involved in it.

"Leave here and take the information out..." Kakashi paused, "You are a student of the Ninja School, right? Do you still remember what the teacher taught you?"

"how about you?"

Looking at Kakashi's indifferent eyes, Sasuke's emotions were somewhat out of control.

He remembered the last life, when he faced Kaguya Otsutsuki at the end of the Fourth World War. Facing Kaguya Otsutsuki's "Mutual Killing Ash Bones", Kakashi stood in front of him.

If it weren't for Obito's Kamui at the critical moment, Kakashi would...

"Sacrificing in a mission is the best destination for a ninja. Let's go, Uchiha Sasuke." Kakashi said softly.

The next wave of tremors was about to reach here, and soon, more rubble began to collapse—

"Go!" Kakashi shouted, "Run forward, don't look back--"

Suddenly stunned, Sasuke subconsciously did what Kakashi said. He supported himself and stood up, but... he couldn't take a step no matter what.

It’s too heavy…

The debris fell and hit the open space between Sasuke and Kakashi.

In the dust, Sasuke's vision was a little blurred. He seemed to see the falling rubble gradually submerging Kakashi.

"Why……"

His vision became increasingly blurry, and Sasuke's eyes widened—

The three magatama in the pupils were spinning faster and faster, as if they had reached a critical point.
