"Furen-chan, can you take a look at this seal?" Fū turned around, revealing her back.
"Hmm... This is… a Five Elements Seal reinforced with another Five Elements Seal to contain the tailed beast?" Furen softly touched the seal on Fū's skin. Each village had its own method of sealing tailed beasts, as standard sealing techniques weren't effective for such massive creatures.
For instance, Gaara's One-Tail was sealed using the Reincarnation Sealing, while the Eight-Tails Gyūki was restrained by the Iron Armor Seal in the Cloud Village, represented by the large iron ring on Killer Bee's arm. The Nine-Tails, Kurama, was sealed by the Fourth Hokage with the Four Symbols Seal layered twice to create the Eight Trigrams Seal.
As for Fū and the Seven-Tails, the beast was contained by two layers of Five Elements Seals.
Blushing slightly as she felt Furen's touch, Fū nodded. "Yes, the village chief called it the Tenfold Seal. Can you help reinforce it for me, Furen-chan?"
Furen nodded calmly, focusing chakra into his left hand. Each of his fingers lit up with a different elemental chakra—wind, lightning, water, fire, and earth—needed for a Five Elements Seal.
He placed his hand on Fū's seal and gently peeled away the outer layer of the Five Elements Seal.
Fū blinked in surprise, turning her head slightly. "Furen-chan, why are you unsealing it?"
Furen smiled reassuringly. "Don't worry, I'm going to reapply the seal. If the little bug tries anything, I'll squash it."
Feeling warmth spread through her chest, Fū nodded with trust in her voice. "Okay, Furen-chan! Do your best!"
With the outer layer removed, Furen's right hand began to glow with the same five elemental chakras, reaching for the inner layer of the seal.
"Release!" he whispered, and with a swift motion, both layers of the seal came undone.
Fū was momentarily in awe. The Tenfold Seal, crafted with great effort by the entire Land of Taki, was easily unraveled by Furen. Normally, such a seal would require multiple people with different chakra natures working in unison, but Furen, possessing all five chakra natures himself, was one of the rare few capable of such a feat.
As the seal broke, the Seven-Tails' cold, dark chakra began to leak out. In theory, Chōmei could now escape Fū's body entirely, which would result in her death.
However, the dreaded screech of the Seven-Tails never came. Though its chakra seeped out, Chōmei remained quietly within Fū, making no attempt to break free. The reason was simple—it was scared of Furen.
After Kurama and Shukaku, yet another tailed beast had been subdued by Furen's overwhelming strength.
"Hey, little bug? You there?" Furen asked, addressing the Seven-Tails casually.
Fū covered her mouth, stifling a giggle. She had thought Furen was joking when he called Chōmei "little bug," but now that the seal was fully opened, he addressed the great tailed beast without a hint of fear.
When Chōmei had been sealed within Fū, Chief Feimo had completed the ritual on his knees, trembling from the mere presence of its chakra. But here was Furen, speaking to the Seven-Tails with utter confidence.
"Little bug?" Furen called again, his voice showing a hint of impatience.
This time, Chōmei couldn't ignore him. Sensing the rising irritation in Furen's tone, the Seven-Tails responded with a faint, subdued voice. "What do you want…?"
Furen grinned, pulling Fū closer into a comforting embrace. "I'll leave some gaps in the seal when I reapply it. From now on, you'll share your chakra with your jinchūriki and teach her whatever you know. Understood?"
There was a moment of silence as Fū held her breath, her heart racing.
"Understood…" Chōmei finally muttered, lowering its metaphorical head in submission.
With Chōmei's compliance, Furen wasted no time. He reignited his chakra, the different elements glowing once more. This time, when he reapplied the two layers of the Five Elements Seal, he made slight modifications, leaving small openings that would allow the Seven-Tails to transfer chakra to Fū.
As soon as the Tenfold Seal was complete, Fū felt a warm current of chakra flow from the seal into her own body, seamlessly merging with her own chakra. It was a perfect balance.
"Furen-chan, you're amazing, my knight!" Fū exclaimed, her affection for Furen increasing by 20%.
Ding! Congratulations, Fū's affection towards you has reached 85%. You now have three remaining lottery chances. Would you like to use them?
