The Legend of the Kyubi

"We are sorry..." - said Kushina as she averted her eyes.     

"You don't have to apologize to me, but to Jiraiya" - replied the young redheaded man as he looked at the two women. The three of them were in the hospital after they left the poor Sannin who had been locked up in the dungeon of Uzumaki Mansion for more than 5 days - "I told you to release him when his punishment was over"     

"We're sorry..." - murmured the two Uzumaki descendants with regret. They wouldn't lie, they had forgotten about it because they were more focused on their things.     

Tsunade was focused on continuing Kimimaro's treatment and Genin's training while Kushina was making arrangements for the arrival of her son and Mikoto's.     

"As I said, you don't have to apologize to me, but to Jiraiya" - continued Kurama as he opened the door of the white-haired Sannin's room, only to notice how the nurses with whom he had had sex were taking care of him.     

"Kurama-sama?" - Tina asked in surprise, but her expression changed when she noticed Kushina - "S-sorry, Kushina-sama!"     

"Don't worry... it's all over now..." - Kushina said uncomfortably - "Where's that girl, Hikari?"     

"She's on vacation" - answered Mika while her twin sister nodded.     

"I see..." -Matriarch Uzumaki nodded. - "Your punishment is over, when you get out of the hospital, come to my house and I'll remove the seal.     

"Thank you!" - exclaimed the nurses with excitement.     

"You may leave, we want to talk to Jiraiya" - said Tsunade as she looked at the group of women.     

"Ok" - nodded the nurses as they quietly left.     

"What do you want?" - asked Jiraiya as he frowned. He was asking the nurses about their orgy with Kurama so that he could use it as a reference for his book.     

"We want to apologize for what we did," said Kushina as she scratched her cheek.     

"As Kushina said, we want to apologize for our actions," Tsunade nodded.     

"Your apologies don't sound sincere" - replied the Sannin as he sighed - "Although it's better than nothing..."     

"We promise that we will compensate you in some way" - added Kushina - "As long as it's not something perverted"     

". . ." - Jiraiya thought for a few seconds about Kushina's proposal and nodded - "Ok, I accept"     

Kurama nodded at the peace sign of the three as he walked to the Sannin's bed - "How long do you think you'll be in this place?"     

"I'd say about two or three days..." - Jiraiya answered calmly - "After that, we can start our journey"     

"Huh?" - Both Kushina and Tsunade were surprised when they heard this.     

"Trip? What trip?" - asked the big-breasted blonde.     

"Didn't you tell them?" - asked Jiraiya in surprise.     

"No..." - denied the young redheaded man.     

"Strange... normally you would tell them about this" - answered the Sannin of the Toads while he frowned - "I suppose it's a good time for you to inform them"     

"I know" - Kurama nodded as he looked at Kushina and Tsunade - "Girls... I'm going on a trip with Jiraiya so I can practice Senjutsu"     

". . ." - The two Uzumaki descendants didn't know what to say when they heard this because they honestly never thought anything like that would happen.     

"My training has stalled and I can't improve no matter how hard I try," sighed the redhead. "My elementary training is increasing but I honestly don't think it's much use when I only use one or two Jutsus and concentrate mostly on hand-to-hand combat.     

"But I can show you my Jutsu of strength!" - exclaimed Tsunade - "You don't have to go to Mount Myoboku!"     

"I know... but there's another reason I want to train Senjutsu" - sighed Kurama as he looked at the two women - "And that is that I have to do it to be one"     

". . ." - the two women could only look at him in confusion because they didn't understand what he was trying to say.     

"You see... I'm not yet complete... or rather I'm not a single being yet" - sighed the boy as he looked out the window of the room - "That's why I can only release 6 physical tails while the other three are illusory..."     

"No matter how much I train my body, it cannot contain more of my Bijuu chakra" - Kurama only shook his head as he continued to tell them about his situation - "After all, all that chakra was not meant to be contained in a physical body... that is why I need it not only purified but also compressed with the Senjutsu chakra"     

"How long have you been thinking about this?" - asked Kushina as she looked at the young redhead.     

"A few months... long before I went to look for Tsunade" - answered the boy - "But I didn't know how to tell you because I knew you would react as you are doing right now"     

The blonde was silent as she sighed with regret.     

". . ." - Kushina just gave her a calm look while nodding - "Ok. . . I'll support your decision. . ."     

"Thank you" - smiled the redhead but his expression changed when he felt the matriarch Uzumaki hold him by the collar of his clothes - "But. . . you'll have to compensate us for all the time you'll be gone . . . and I'll ask that half now, while the other half you'll pay when you return"     

". . ." - Kurama nodded when he heard this as Jiraiya started writing - "What are you doing?"     

"Can't you see?" - asked the Sannin - "This may not be graphic content but it's a good starting point for my next book.     

"If this is not proof that he is recovering, I don't know what will be," responded Tsunade as she shook her head.     

* * * * *     

Five days had passed and Kurama and Jiraiya were leaving Konoha after saying goodbye to everyone they knew.     

"How were your 5 days?" - asked Jiraiya as he waved his eyebrows suggestively.     

"The first year the girls put me in Kushi-chan's Time Seal..." - muttered the redheaded man as he gave him a glance - "All but Kushi-chan and Mikoto, entered the seal... and well, you know the rest. The other days were just days of rest..."     

"I see... I was chased by the old man's Anbu all these days after I escaped from the hospital" - Jiraiya answered sarcastically - "I have to say, the old man doesn't give up easily"     

"Is he still going on about wanting you to be his successor?" - Kurama asked as he rolled his eyes at his fellow traveler.     

"Yes... and he does not want to take no for an answer," sighed Jiraiya, "Anyway, we better save that for another time, now we have to call our transport.     

"I know" - the redheaded man nodded as he made hand seals - "Kuchiyose no Jutsu!"     

*Poof!*     

"Hi, Aniki!" - exclaimed Gamakichi when he saw that he had been summoned again - "What do you need?"     

"Hello, Kichi," smiled the redhead as the young toad jumped on his shoulder. "I wish you'd tell someone to use the Gyaku Kuchiyose no Jutsu to send us to Mount Myoboku.     

"Hmm... no problem" - Gamakichi nodded - "I'll inform my dad"     

*Poof!*     

That said, Gamakichi disappeared as quickly as he appeared.     

"Any advice?" - the redheaded man asked.     

"You're going to feel like you're being pulled, so don't resist or you might have an accident" - said Jiraiya seriously - "The other advice I can give you is to never get the wrong hole... I learned it the hard way"     

". . ." - Kurama gave him a blank look when he heard the latter because he never expected that kind of advice.     

"Hmm... I think it's time... I'm going first" - said Jiraiya as he disappeared in a smokescreen, only to have Kurama disappear after a few seconds too.     

"The Kyubi no Yoko has left Konoha..." - said a dark voice.     

"We can only wait to find out where he went..." - replied a much softer voice.     

"The odds of it going to Mount Myoboku..." - said the first voice.     

"They are 80%" - answered the second one while a silhouette appeared from the ground, showing the appearance of a kind of green carnivorous plant - "If what we think is true, then the Kyubi will be much harder to capture"     

"Nothing our contingency plan can't handle," replied the first voice.     

The plant quickly opened, showing a man with green hair and a face divided into two colors, one-half white and one black - "But..."     

"We'd better report it anyway," said the two voices as the silhouette disappeared back into the earth.     

"I'm sure it was here..." - Yamato murmured as he reached the place where the plant man had once stood. - ". . ."     

"What is it, Yamato?" - Kakashi asked. He and Mokuton, the user, had said goodbye to Kurama and Jiraiya when Yamato began acting strangely.     

"I felt a Mokuton chakra appear in this place..." - replied the brown-haired man with his typical neutral expression - "Which is practically impossible because there shouldn't be another user of that Kekkei Genkai... maybe I was wrong?"     

Kakashi frowned when he heard this because he did not doubt that Yamato was not wrong, but if he was right, that meant one thing - "Yamato... we have to inform Hiruzen-sama about this new Mokuton user"     

"Maybe I'm just making a mistake, Senpai" - said Yamato calmly.     

"It's possible... but it's better to be safe than sorry," replied the user of the Sharingan.
