It was highly likely to be where the Seven-Tails was being sealed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Takigakure intended to transplant the Seven-Tails and create a Jinchūriki, they would most likely choose this location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the difficulty of relocating an infant was nowhere near the difficulty and risk of transferring a Tailed Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Observing from a distance for a while, Seimei didn't notice anything unusual, so he focused his mind and activated his Byakugan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, his vision penetrated the rock walls ahead, revealing the situation deep inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, an immense chakra source came into view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just seeing this chakra made his heart inexplicably uneasy. It felt inherently corrosive, weighing down on his mind and spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Seimei had a 'Spirit' attribute of 23 points—his mental strength far surpassed that of ordinary people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a result, he quickly shook off the influence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did he have the presence of mind to examine the owner of this chakra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw a colossal creature with features resembling both an insect and a moth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With its seven forked tails and a pair of massive wings, there was no mistaking it—it was the Seven-Tails, Chōmei, hidden away by Takigakure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, the moment he sensed its chakra, Seimei had already deduced the answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, this wasn't his first encounter with a Tailed Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had even absorbed the Six-Tails' chakra up close using the Chakra Absorption Technique, leaving him with a deep impression of their unique Tailed Beast chakra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So there was no way he could be mistaken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, seeing its physical form only confirmed his suspicions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei focused, carefully examining the Seven-Tails' condition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the dense sealing techniques surrounding it, it was evident that Takigakure had kept it restrained in this location, forcing it into a deep slumber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This also explained why the beast had never caused any disturbances within the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, it demonstrated Takigakure's impressive proficiency in sealing techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei couldn't help but wonder—had they obtained remnants of the Uzumaki Clan's knowledge?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was well known that the Uzumaki Clan was the most advanced in the entire ninja world when it came to sealing techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If anyone could perfectly restrain a Tailed Beast, it would undoubtedly be them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this thought, a flicker of excitement rose in Seimei's heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he quickly suppressed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His goal here was to capture the Tailed Beast, not to collect sealing techniques or Uzumaki relics. He couldn't lose sight of his primary objective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he had found his target, what was the next step? Should he act immediately or wait for the right moment?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he contemplated his options—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Seven-Tails, which he had been observing, suddenly opened its eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of eyes were those?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cold? Violent? Filled with hatred?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, even Seimei couldn't tell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But those abruptly opened insect-like compound eyes startled him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, he had assumed the beast was in a deep sleep. Now, it seemed that assumption was incorrect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe it wasn't entirely wrong...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei shifted his gaze toward the people surrounding the Seven-Tails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, deep inside the cave, several Takigakure shinobi were present near the beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were kneeling on the ground, meticulously inscribing sealing formations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sealing array consisted of two primary parts, resembling two interlocking rings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The larger ring encircled the Seven-Tails, while the smaller ring contained a months-old infant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The baby lay on a blanket, sucking on its fingers in peaceful slumber, completely unaware of the world around it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no doubt—this child was the future Jinchūriki of the Seven-Tails: Fū.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the Takigakure shinobi were in the process of sealing the beast within her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps this very action had awakened the Seven-Tails from its long slumber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Tailed Beasts were not mindless creatures. They possessed intelligence equal to that of humans. When faced with danger, they naturally reacted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the threat was obvious—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being sealed inside a Jinchūriki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, they were immortal beings. Even if they were killed, they would resurrect after a few years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no intelligent being, no matter how powerful, would willingly accept death if there was even a sliver of hope to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as they remained free, they could rely on their immense lifespan and strength to find a way to survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But once sealed inside a human, their fate was no longer in their own hands. If the Jinchūriki died, so would they.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of absolute restraint—any intelligent being would resist it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, it was no surprise that the Seven-Tails had awakened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Seimei failed to consider one possibility—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was his own surveillance that had stirred the beast from its deep sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tailed Beasts had an extraordinary sensitivity to ancient dojutsu like the Byakugan and Sharingan, far beyond that of ordinary shinobi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They also understood the power of such abilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, being roused from slumber was entirely natural.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, an observer was the last to realize the impact of their own actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Seimei was lost in thought, the Takigakure shinobi inscribing the seals noticed the Seven-Tails' awakening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were momentarily shocked but quickly moved to reactivate the surrounding seals, attempting to suppress the beast back into slumber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, the Seven-Tails had no intention of submitting so easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although it had never experienced being sealed inside a Jinchūriki before, its instincts screamed danger. That alone was enough to make it resist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was another reason as well—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside, Seimei lurked, an unknown enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, an enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though it had not physically seen him, the beast's sharp perception detected the greed hidden deep within his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made it even more unwilling to return to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With all these factors converging, it chose the simplest and most direct solution—resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of chains rattling filled the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sealing formation, activated by the Takigakure shinobi, transformed into chains that wrapped around the Seven-Tails. But as it struggled violently, the bindings strained under the pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside, the Takigakure ANBU stationed at the entrance noticed the disturbance within the cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half of them immediately rushed inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, several high-ranking Takigakure officials entered the sealing chamber from another passage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their faces darkened as they took in the sight of the raging Seven-Tails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the older council members demanded, \"What's going on? Why has it suddenly awakened? Didn't we just reinforce the seals recently?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Takigakure Jōnin overseeing the ritual shook his head. \"We're not sure. It just woke up all of a sudden. We're trying to suppress it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder immediately turned to the nearby ANBU. \"The Seven-Tails wouldn't lose control for no reason. Search the area immediately. See if there are any intruders.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Elder!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, the ANBU nodded and vanished with a Body Flicker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a sharp and quick judgment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had immediately suspected an external threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this also presented an opportunity for Seimei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he watched the Takigakure ANBU spread out, a smirk formed beneath his mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, without a sound, he followed one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>",1208,"2026-06-06T03:30:59.574Z",1,"novelbin.me","7924e021c15142da4889734a736b1ff3083dc1bacd10c5912eed85726e3c5bda","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-708","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-706",1097,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrind-is-my-ninja-way-cover.jpg"]
