Bang!
The sharp claws suddenly extended, but were blocked by the sealed door. For a moment, the entire sealed space shook violently, and violent chakra swept through like a storm.
"Human!"
The voice, filled with anger, echoed as the huge, scarlet, and violent pupils reflected his figure.
"Don't be so excited. Calm down, Nine-Tails."
Uchiha Sogetsu looked at the claws that were only a few centimeters away from him and said calmly, "I told you, I'm here to negotiate terms with you, not to fight."
"I never negotiate with vile humans!"
The Nine-Tailed Fox growled angrily, and its massive body slowly stood up. Its nine tails danced wildly, releasing violent murderous intent.
"Really?"
Uchiha Sogetsu covered his forehead, looking somewhat helpless, and sighed, "Why do you all force me to use force?"
The next moment, he lowered his hands. The blood-red tomoe reflected in his eyes, forming a windmill pattern, exuding an extreme coldness.
"Since you won't listen when I talk nicely, I can only teach you a lesson."
The blood-red eyes didn't resemble the pattern of tomoe at all.
Seeing the boy's changing eyes, the Nine-Tails suddenly recalled the most painful, hateful, and fearful memories in its heart.
"You are... Uchiha!!!"
The Nine-Tailed Fox's angry roar still created a rolling shock wave even through the sealed door.
However, Uchiha Sogetsu remained unmoved, stepping into the sealed door, and hooked his finger at the Nine-Tails.
"Come on, little fox, let me see what you've got."
"How dare you come in?!"
Faced with such provocation, and with new and old grudges, Nine-Tails could no longer bear it.
Whoosh!
Nine-Tails stretched out his forearm, and his claws flashed like lightning.
The terrifying force tore through the air, making a sound like silk being ripped, slashing over like a sharp blade!
Dang!!!
The sharp claws struck Uchiha Sogetsu, but were blocked by a light golden rib-like substance.
"Susanoo?!"
Seeing the familiar giant, the Nine-Tails was reminded of bad memories.
Of course, the unpleasant part of its memory was not just about this giant; there was another even more terrifying person.
"Is this all you've got?"
Uchiha Sogetsu's eyes were bloodshot as he pushed the power of his Mangekyo Sharingan to the extreme.
The pale golden ribs began to grow flesh and tendons at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon the Tengu armor appeared.
In an instant, Susanoo, now wrapped in the hard Tengu armor, appeared in its third form. It was majestic, exuding an extremely terrifying chakra that almost turned into a tangible oppressive force.
The entire sealed space shook and wailed under the heavy pressure, almost collapsing.
Susanoo clenched its fist and punched out heavily!
Boom!
The Nine-Tails was easily knocked over.
With just one punch, the powerful force sent it rolling several times across the ground in disarray.
After shaking its bruised and battered head, the Nine-Tails raised its head shakily. Just as it was about to let out an angry roar, it saw Uchiha Sogetsu approaching in a Susanoo, and he raised his palm, pressing its head heavily to the ground.
Bang!
Its head hit the ground again, and Nine-Tails felt extremely humiliated.
"Damn Uchiha—I'll kill you!!!" It opened its mouth, quickly condensing yin and yang chakra.
"Shut your mouth!"
Of course, Uchiha Sogetsu would not let it use the Tailed Beast Ball and directly punched the Nine-Tails on the nose.
The immense force violently snapped the Nine-Tailed Fox's jaws shut, interrupting the chakra it had just condensed, causing it to explode within its mouth.
Boom!
A puff of black smoke escaped through the gaps of its tightly sealed mouth.
Although the Nine-Tails couldn't die, its head was reeling from the shock. But Uchiha Sogetsu wasn't about to give it a break. He raised his colossal fists encased in Susanoo and, after a brief accumulation of power, unleashed a relentless barrage on the Nine-Tails' forehead, belly, and spine.
Bang, bang, bang.
It was impossible to count the number of punches, and the Nine-Tailed Fox howled in agony.
"Stop! Stop!"
Finally, the Nine-Tails couldn't take it anymore and pleaded for mercy in a low voice: "What do you want from me?!"
Though a tailed beast cannot die completely—its chakra will eventually regroup and it will reappear after a period—even it is not immune to pain!
Even when Uchiha Madara controlled it, it wasn't beaten this brutally. This guy seemed to have come just to pummel it.
"I told you, I'm here to negotiate terms with you."
Uchiha Sogetsu looked down at the Nine-Tails, which was curled up, clutching its head.
"Then tell me already!"
The Nine-Tails, desperate to avoid more beatings, glared at him with resentment.
After enduring so much pain, it hadn't managed to learn anything; he just kept hitting it.
Curse the Uzumaki clan!
If it weren't for their sealing techniques, the Nine-Tailed Fox would never have suffered such humiliation. It finally realized that continuing to fight was pointless and only inviting more pain. It wasn't a masochist, after all!
"Calmed down now?"
Uchiha Sogetsu asked.
"Calm down. Very calm."
Nine-Tails nodded frantically. If he didn't calm down, he would be beaten into a pulp.
"Okay, let's talk about something serious."
Susanoo slowly disintegrated. Uchiha Sogetsu stepped on its nose, looked into the huge eyes of the Nine-Tails, and said calmly: "I will give you two choices. First: you listen to me for twenty years, and then let you go free; second: I will control you for twenty years with my Mangekyō, and then beat you to death. Choose."
Is there even a choice here?
The Nine-Tailed Fox really wanted to swear at this moment, but under those cold Mangekyō Sharingan, it calmed down again.
Don't be angry, don't be angry!
The old man said, don't be angry with unreasonable people, there is no need!
"I choose the first one. It doesn't matter which one you choose." Nine-Tails seemed to have been drained of his energy. He was weak and helpless. He sneered and said, "Besides, I don't expect you humans to abide by the agreement, especially the evil Uchiha clan. Huh."
There was a strong sense of distrust in his words.
But it is true that humans have always regarded the tailed beasts as a huge force and deterrent, and have tried every means to control them.
Promise?
Haha, it no longer expects that kind of thing.
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not."
Uchiha Sogetsu adjusted his glasses and said calmly, "I am telling the truth. I am not interested in the power of the tailed beasts, and I don't want to become the Six Paths Jinchūriki."
"You!!!"
Hearing this, Nine-Tails's pupils trembled violently, and a look of shock instantly appeared: "How did you know this?!"
"That's not important."
Uchiha Sogetsu jumped down and walked slowly outside: "I know much more than you think, the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, the Sage of Six Pathe, Kaguya Otsutsuki, and even the God Tree."
The successive words were like heavy artillery shells, bombarding Nine-Tails's heart.
Its pupils widened, and an expression of disbelief appeared in its eyes: "Who are you? How do you know these ancient things?"
"Me?"
Uchiha Sogetsu paused and looked back, then smiled meaningfully and said, "I am just an insignificant 'spectator' in the long river of history."
