Uzumaki Kushina had already manifested her fifth tail.
And Uzumaki Kushina, who had just regained consciousness for a moment, lost it again.
Uzumaki Kushina was forcibly returned to her consciousness space, and Kurama's powerful force flung her, still connected by chains, away.
Uzumaki Kushina had already manifested six tails. Even though she was tightly wrapped by Shindai's Sand Iron, her powerful strength allowed her to easily break free with her arms. Then, with one punch each, she sent Obito and Kakashi flying.
At the same time, her six tails swung forcefully, directly dismantling Kannazuki, turning it into a pile of parts that fell to the ground.
Shindai looked at the dismantled Kannazuki, filled with grief: "I just iterated it not long ago! Is it that fragile?!"
When Shindai saw the out-of-control Uzumaki Kushina about to stab Minato Namikaze with her sharp fingers, Shindai quickly used Sand Iron to cover Uzumaki Kushina's hand.
Uzumaki Kushina's hand struck Minato Namikaze's abdomen.
Minato Namikaze flew backward, spitting blood.
If Shindai hadn't covered Uzumaki Kushina's hand with Sand Iron, increasing the impact area, Minato Namikaze's abdomen would have definitely been pierced.
And even if his abdomen wasn't pierced, being hit like that broke several of Minato Namikaze's ribs, adding injury to injury, making his condition even worse, and he spat out blood as if it were free.
What was more critical was that Minato Namikaze was sent flying, which prevented him from continuing to use Sealing Techniques to maintain the Four Symbols Seal within Uzumaki Kushina.
Uzumaki Kushina was about to manifest her seventh tail.
Minato Namikaze shouted at Shindai: "Shindai! Use your Sand Iron to restrain Kushina!"
"I can't restrain her!"
Although Shindai said that, he had already used Magnet Release again to manipulate the Sand Iron, forming a triangular pyramid to restrain Uzumaki Kushina within it.
A Flying Thunder God Kunai was thrust into the Sand Iron triangular pyramid. Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly appear before the Sand Iron triangular pyramid, placing his hands on it to continue using Sealing Techniques, helping to reinforce the Sand Iron while maintaining the Four Symbols Seal within Uzumaki Kushina.
In her consciousness space, Uzumaki Kushina saw the heavily injured Minato Namikaze and cried out: "Enough, Minato! Run! Get out of here!"
Minato Namikaze seemed to hear her, gasping for breath and murmuring: "I won't... leave, never!"
Uzumaki Kushina's head had already broken through Shindai's Sand Iron triangular pyramid, and she roared at Minato Namikaze: "Take your sealing hands off! This guy is my Jinchuriki! It has nothing to do with you!"
Even though he was severely injured, Minato Namikaze's tone remained firm: "No! It does have something to do with me. I can feel it... Kushina, she always has me in her heart!"
Uzumaki Kushina, whose body was now possessed by Kurama's consciousness, and who had seven tails, had her power increased by another level. Even with Minato Namikaze's Sealing Techniques, Uzumaki Kushina's right hand still broke through the Sand Iron triangular pyramid and furiously smashed towards Minato Namikaze's head.
At the same time, Kurama's tail also broke out of the Sand Iron triangular pyramid and swept Shindai's abdomen.
Shindai's eyes widened, bloodshot and almost popping out. He spat out a large mouthful of blood and flew backward.
"Shindai!"
Obito and Kakashi, who had been sent flying by the irrational Uzumaki Kushina's punch and couldn't get up, exclaimed in surprise when they saw Shindai also fly away.
And because of Shindai's injury, the Sand Iron triangular pyramid also began to crumble.
Shindai was utterly stunned. Couldn't we have just played along first, let Kurama lower its guard, and then without any martial ethics, directly ambush and seal it?
Did it have to be this unyielding?
If that punch landed, Minato Namikaze's head would definitely be gone.
If Minato Namikaze was gone, then it would be their turn next.
Forget it!
Shindai, lying on the ground, spat out the blood from his mouth, enduring the intense pain in his body, and shouted: "If you land that punch, you will definitely regret it! Kurama!"
Uzumaki Kushina's fist, possessed by Kurama's consciousness, stopped in mid-air. She turned her head and looked at Shindai in disbelief.
And because Kurama was distracted, Minato Namikaze's Chakra resonated with Uzumaki Kushina's Chakra, entering the will space.
In the consciousness space.
Minato Namikaze saw Uzumaki Kushina, and Kurama, which was condensing a Tailed Beast Ball.
Uzumaki Kushina, seeing Minato Namikaze descend like a savior, recalled Uzumaki Mito's words again.
'We came here as vessels for the Nine-Tailed, but before that, find your love, and then fill that vessel with love! That way, even if you become a vessel for the Nine-Tailed, even if you live as a Jinchuriki, you can still live a happy life.'
Minato Namikaze had already formed a Rasengan in his hand.
Uzumaki Kushina also came to her senses and formed hand signs.
The chains that Kurama had broken free from now tightly bound Kurama's body.
Kurama snapped out of its daze. No matter how many doubts it had now, it had to deal with the situation here first.
Minato Namikaze was already swooping down on it from mid-air with the Rasengan, while Kurama wanted to continue condensing the Tailed Beast Ball, letting it fully form.
But Uzumaki Kushina exerted her power, and the chains binding Kurama's body tightened even more, especially the chain around its neck, making it impossible for Kurama to continue condensing the Tailed Beast Ball.
The Tailed Beast Ball, half-condensed, showed signs of collapsing.
Minato Namikaze was already within reach. Left with no choice, Kurama spat out this extremely weakened version of the Tailed Beast Ball.
"So! I will not... hand Kushina over to you!"
Minato Namikaze's Rasengan and Kurama's Tailed Beast Ball collided.
In an instant, the white light from the explosion filled the entire consciousness space.
Minato Namikaze's consciousness was forcibly ejected from the consciousness space, and he fell to the ground, his eyelids heavy as he looked at Uzumaki Kushina.
Uzumaki Kushina stood blankly in place. The next second, all the Tailed Beast Chakra on Uzumaki Kushina's body dissipated, and she returned to her original appearance.
Uzumaki Kushina collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
Minato Namikaze, relieved, also couldn't bear it anymore and passed out.
Several of Shindai's ribs were broken after being hit by Uzumaki Kushina's tail. Now, seeing Uzumaki Kushina return to normal, Shindai also rolled his Byakugan and promptly fainted.
Kakashi and Obito crawled towards Minato Namikaze and Shindai, respectively.
Seeing Shindai still occasionally spitting blood from his mouth, Obito was very flustered: "Kakashi, what should we do? Shindai's condition looks very bad."
"Minato Sensei's condition is also very bad..."
Kakashi stood up shakily: "W-we must find someone to come quickly..."
Just then, a tall figure appeared behind Kakashi.
Seeing this figure, Kakashi and Obito were instantly overjoyed: "L-Lord Jiraiya..."
"Obito! Kakashi! I brought people!"
Rin Nohara arrived here with a group of Ninja behind her.
Jiraiya looked at the unconscious Minato Namikaze, Uzumaki Kushina, and Shindai with a serious expression, and said to Kakashi and Obito: "You've worked hard. Leave the rest to us."
