"Little brat, what are you looking for me for?"
Shukaku looked at Asahi with some puzzlement. When Bunpuku passed out just now, he didn't come out directly. He also heard Rasa and the others tell Bunpuku about Asahi's strength. One person overturned two Shinobi Villages alone, and both Hachibi and Sanbi were defeated by him easily. Although Shukaku is also strong, his strength lies in special abilities, such as sealing ability, rather than pure combat.
So, facing Asahi, in fact, Shukaku's idea is actually not coming out, and let Asahi go to the trouble Sunagakure. With that, he doesn't need to be Sunagakure's shield, but now, it seems that Asahi doesn't plan to let him go. He estimated that he will be put into a new Jinchūriki.
It is estimated that Rasa has never thought of such a thing. In fact, according to Bunpuku's character, he will not let Shukaku fall into the hands of the other villages, so he will definitely take Shukaku with him to die together and will not hand it over to anyone. This is where Rasa's confidence lies, otherwise he won't just leave their village's Biju here.
But now that Bunpuku is knocked out by Asahi, they are like giving away a Biju for nothing. If Rasa knows about this, he will definitely cry. Losing Biju does not matter, but giving it away is a big problem.
"I don't want to do anything, I just want to ask you, do you want freedom?"
Asahi asked with a smile, he knew that freedom is very important to Biju.
"Freedom? Kid, are you trying to fool me? With the mind of you Shinobi, you probably want to get me so that you can create a Jinchuriki, right? What stupid freedom do you mean?"
Shukaku said disdainfully. He had already seen the human nature clearly, so he was too lazy to say anything.
"No no no, the freedom I am talking about is completely giving you back your freedom, not as Jinchuriki, but real freedom. I know some things about you Biju. In my memory, there is something about you Biju, in that picture…"
Asahi talked about the scenes in the anime. Sage of Six Paths told Shukaku and the others to wait for someone who could change them, and this person should be Naruto, but now, Asahi can't help but use this for his own benefit.
When Sage of Six Paths split them out, only them nine Biju and Sage of Six Paths knew about this. Although the Biju disagreed with each other, they were very clear about each other's character and knew it was impossible for them to spread the information.
So now that Asahi said something like this, Shukaku was completely dumbfounded, and he subconsciously thinks that person they are waiting for is Asahi, otherwise, how could Asahi know what Sage of Six Paths said? If it is from some historical records he has obtained, how can there be such a clear picture description? So, there is only one possibility, that is, Asahi does have this memory in his head.
If this is the case, then Shukaku can indeed trust Asahi.
"Boy, is this really the memory in your mind?"
Although he was almost 100% sure, Shukaku felt that it would be better to ask Asahi clearly.
"That's right, there is indeed such memory in my mind!"
Asahi didn't lie as he indeed have the memory, but he saw it from the anime, and he feels that there is no need to say it!
"Okay, then, 'll believe you this one time, but, what is your purpose?"
Although Shukaku basically believed him, he didn't think Asahi would give him freedom for free.
"Actually, it's very simple for you. I need you to join our Iwagakure, don't cause any harm to Iwagakure, and become the guardian of our Iwagakure. We will treat you as a companion instead of sealing you into other people's bodies to make Jinchuriki!"
Asahi stated his purpose. He doesn't like the normal Summoned Beasts, and he can hardly use them, but he can sign a contract with Shukaku, just like Madara takes Kyubi as his Summoned Beast, so that Shukaku will be his Summoned Beast.
After Asahi finished speaking, Shukaku thought about it for a while. The proposal seemed okay, and it was not a big deal to him. He also doesn't need to be sealed into Jinchuriki's body, which is very good, and he will also be protected by Iwagakure, otherwise, as a Biju, there are probably a lot of people targeting him wherever he goes. They will find a way to capture him and make a new Jinchuriki.
"Well, boy, as long as you do what you say, I will keep my promise!"
Shukaku nodded, indicating that he agreed.
"That's good, now, we should go back for the time being. I will take you to Iwagakure, as I basically don't know how to remove your seal."
Asahi was also helpless. He wanted to learn about these things, but it was very difficult to learn, and he was not a peerless genius, so he was also in despair. He is only invincible by relying on his cheat instead of relying on his talent.
After hearing Asahi's words, Shukaku looked at Asahi speechlessly, and then retreated. At this moment, Asahi stopped chasing Sunagakure's Shinobi, and let them run away. Anyway, how can these experience packs run? No matter how far they run, they still can't run from their own village.
Looking at the unconscious Bunpuku, Asahi originally planned to take this guy back first, but suddenly, a golden light flashed in front of him, and several people appeared in front of him.
"Space-Time Ninjutsu is indeed a very powerful thing. It just so happens that I need your help. That person over there should be from the Uzumaki Clan, right? Can you please help me remove the seal on this old man?"
After seeing the people coming, Asahi set his eyes on Kushina. The Uzumaki Clan is known for their Sealing Technique, but because their strength was too weak, their combat power was not that great even with their powerful Sealing Technique. The restriction was too great, so it's no wonder their village is destroyed after being besieged by the other villages.
"That is… Sunagakure's Ichibi's Jinchuriki? What do you want to do by unlocking his seal?"
Orochimaru naturally recognized Bunpuku at a glance, and then looked at Asahi with a puzzled look. Although the people here are not afraid of Shukaku, why would Asahi try to release him here? Shouldn't he be taken back for transfer and create a new Jinchuriki.
"Of course I naturally have my own ideas when I do this. Will you help? If you don't help me, I'll need to go back to find the people in my village to help me."
Asahi asked again, and Orochimaru then gave Kushina a look of affirmation. Then, Kushina came to Bunpuku, dead is a usual thing during the war, but she was a little curious why did Asahi release Shukaku now. Of course, she didn't feel good as she will basically kill Bunpuku. After all, she was Kyubi's Jinchuriki. Once the Biju was removed, the Jinchuriki would die.
But since her leader has said to do it, she naturally wouldn't refuse. In front of the Uzumaki Clan, Sunagakure's Sealing Technique was just garbage among the garbage, so the seal was removed in an instant.
"Boy, you really didn't lie to me. I finally came out! Hahaha!"
After Shukaku came out, he began to laugh wildly.
