Arata sat down, arms behind his head.

"Hey, Kurama… I've been thinking, y'know? Got a few doubts."

Kurama, still small because he didn't have his full chakra, looked up at him.

"What now?" he said.

"Well," Arata scratched his head, "Are you connected to your siblings? Like the other tailed beasts?"

Kurama blinked, then shook his head. "No. I'm not."

"Huh? Why not?" Arata raised an eyebrow.

"I don't know," Kurama said honestly. "We were all linked together, through the Sage of Six Paths—Hagoromo Otsutsuki, my old man. He connected all of us once. But now… the link is gone."

Kurama sounded confused, even a bit frustrated.

"Well, I can answer that," said Jake suddenly. The system voice popped up in Arata's head.

"Go on, Jake," Arata nodded. "What's going on with Kurama's connection?"

"It's pretty simple," Jake replied. "When Kurama died Outside, that connection with his siblings broke. He wasn't supposed to come back."

Jake paused, then added, "But now that he's reborn inside you—in this time chamber—he's kind of… disconnected from the rest. Like a phone with no signal."

"Ohh," Arata nodded. "So, he'll reconnect after we leave this place?"

"Exactly," Jake said. "Once you go back into the real world, out of the time chamber, that link should come back. Slowly, but it'll come back."

"Nice! That's good news then," Arata smiled. "Once we're out, I'll head to the Sanjukan Forest in the morning. I'll set up a barrier and talk to your siblings, Kurama. They should know what we're planning."

Kurama gave a small nod, looking a little proud. Jake hummed in agreement too.

"But hey, Kurama… there's something else," Arata said. "Back then, when you attacked the village… how come you were controlled by BlackZetsu? I mean, there was no Sharingan, right? No Mangekyō either. So how?"

Kurama frowned, his tails flicking behind him. "Tch. That's something I hate thinking about."

Jake answered instead. "It wasn't Mangekyō Sharingan. It was something else. Someone messed with Kurama's chakra—indirectly. Zetsu used Ninshu and Curse seals. Chakra disruption. Basically."

"Figures," Arata sighed. "Zetsu always played dirty."

"Yeah, you're right," Kurama said, his voice calm but serious.

"I wasn't controlled by Sharingan or even Mangekyō Sharingan like you said earlier. But… there was something else, Arata."

Arata leaned in. "Something else? What do you mean?"

Kurama looked straight at him. "This Black Zetsu… he's different in this world. Unlike in the anime, this world is real. And so is he."

Arata frowned. "So?"

Kurama continued, "He knows Ninshu. The real one. The one created by my old man—Hagoromo Otsutsuki. And believe me, Ninshu is way beyond any Genjutsu."

"What's the difference?" Arata asked, curious.

Kurama nodded. "Let me explain. Genjutsu forces its way into someone's mind. It tricks the senses and controls them from the outside. But Ninshu… Ninshu connects people naturally—mind, body, and soul. It's like it was meant to be connected. No force. Just... harmony."

Arata blinked. "Like Wi-Fi with no password?"

Kurama sighed. "That's... one dumb way to put it, but yeah, kind of like that."

"Cool," Arata chuckled. "But that sounds dangerous too."

Kurama nodded again. "It is. You remember Kotoamatsukami, right? Shisui's ultimate Genjutsu? Well, if someone fully masters Ninshu, they can do something just as powerful. Maybe even more. Without any Sharingan, without any bloodline. and Without ANY LIMIT."

Just then, Jake's voice echoed in Arata's mind.

"Kurama's right. But don't worry, Arata. You've got things that protect you."

"Oh?" Arata raised an eyebrow.

"You're basically one with nature's chakra now," Jake explained.

"So techniques like this won't work on you. Same with your father—Hashirama. He's the reincarnation of Ashura. And Madara too, since he's Indra's reincarnation. This kind of manipulation doesn't affect them."

"What about Mom? And Izuna?" Arata asked quickly.

"You've been near your mother all the time," Jake said.

"Your chakra's protecting her. Izuna too—he's got your chakra flowing through him now, thanks to your father. So they're safe."

Kurama crossed his paws. "But we tailed beasts... we're not safe. We can still be controlled."

Arata frowned. "Even now?"

Kurama looked at him. "Well, not me. I'm connected to you now. I can feel your emotions, your thoughts. It's like I'm inside your heart, not just sealed in your gut."

"That's… kinda sweet," Arata smiled.

"Shut up," Kurama grumbled, but his tails twitched lightly.

"Then… maybe we should make something?" Arata suggested. "Like a seal. Something that can protect you guys. So no one can seal or control the tailed beasts again. Not even with Mangekyō Sharingan or whatever that Black Zetsu's planning."

Kurama looked up, thoughtful. "You know what? That's actually a good idea."

"Yes. A seal like that can work. If created properly, it can prevent future sealing or mind control. It will protect the other tailed beasts from becoming war tools again."Said Jake

Kurama's eyes narrowed, and he growled. "If your dumb father tries to do what he did in the anime—gather my siblings and use them as weapons—I swear, I'll rip his balls off."

Arata snorted. "Okay, Kurama, that was too much information."

Kurama's face was dead serious. "I mean it. I'm not letting my brothers and sisters get locked up again. They're not monsters. They deserve to be free."

Arata nodded. "Alright. We'll do it. I promise, we'll make that seal together."

Kurama smirked. "Good. Now you're talking like a real Jinchūriki."

"Kurama, I've got a plan," Arata said, his eyes serious.

"What if I… kinda let your siblings stay inside me too for a while ? Like how you're sealed inside me now you know?"

Kurama tilted his head. "Hmm? What brought that up?"

Arata crossed his arms. "I know Ishiki's still out there, right? He's dangerous. And the reason he didn't come after you yet… maybe it's because you're with me. That's a big deal."

Kurama nodded slowly. "Yeah... makes sense. This world is real now, not like the anime or manga. Which means... all the dangers are real too."

"Exactly," Arata said. "And like you said before—Ninshu is being used here. That changes everything."

Kurama gave a small smile. "You're thinking clearly for once, Arata. That's probably the best decision we can make right now."

"And what about that seal you were talking about?" Kurama asked after a moment. "When are you gonna make it?"

Arata smirked. "Don't worry, buddy. I already started."

He brought his hand forward, and—poof!—an Wood Clone appeared in front of them.

"See this guy?" Arata pointed at the clone. "He's working on it already. This seal... I made it just for this reason. Once it's finished, no one will be able to mess with the tailed beasts' chakra. No control, no Genjutsu, and definitely no sealing."

Kurama's eyes widened a bit. "You serious?"

"Yup," Arata nodded proudly. "If anyone even tries to seal a tailed beast, they'll just get teleported far, far away. Like... other side of the Elemental Nation of far."

Kurama snorted. "Heh... good. I like that. But still—we need to be careful. No rushing. One wrong move and some old fool might mess things up again."

"Don't worry," Arata said, giving a thumbs-up. "I'm not Naruto, I actually think before I act."

"Oi!" Kurama growled, but he looked kind of amused.

Just then, Jake's voice echoed inside Arata's mind.

"Host, what about Ishiki's Ten Tails? You haven't forgotten, right?"

Arata nodded. "Yeah, yeah, I didn't forget. Listen. Once I absorb Shibi's body in this world, we'll head to the One Piece world or Similar for a bit."

Kurama blinked. "Wait, what?"

Jake stayed silent, already used to Arata's randomness.

Arata continued, "Over there,if we reached I'll grab a few Devil Fruits, and then find an empty planet. Like... totally empty, no life, nothing justt plants and Nature. Then I'll make that Ten Tails eat Ishiki's corpse, and then eat the planet's chakra fruit."

Kurama stared at him. "You're insane."

"I know," Arata grinned. "But smart insane. Once Ten Tails eats Ishiki's and produce chakra fruit, i will evolve. And since I will already have Shibai's power in me, it'll be a nice little bonus for the future."

Jake hummed in agreement. "Risky… but not impossible."

Kurama shook his head. "You're the weirdest being I've ever met."

"Thanks," Arata said proudly. "I'll take that as a compliment."
