Boom—boom—boom—boom!
Deafening explosions erupted without warning.
In just a few breaths, the Four-Tails tailed beast was blasted into frantic retreat, terror written all over its face.
As a tailed beast, it had encountered countless ninja forces that coveted its power. Many powerful ninja had tried to obtain that strength and become jinchūriki.
One could say it had faced an innumerable number of formidable opponents.
Yet what the Four-Tails never expected was that this child before it was even stronger—far more terrifying—than any ninja force it had ever encountered.
Among the tailed beasts, strength and violence had always been revered; the law of the jungle was supreme.
Now that it had personally witnessed how overwhelmingly powerful this young man was, the Four-Tails' resistance weakened almost instantly.
Just as the remaining Explosion Release shuriken were about to slam into its body, the Four-Tails suddenly let out a heavy thud and knelt to the ground, prostrating itself in fear.
"May I ask… just who is this great lord?"
"The Four-Tails is willing to serve under your command and allow you to become a jinchūriki!"
As it spoke, the Four-Tails deliberately slowed its breathing. Its massive body trembled uncontrollably as it looked toward Ning Feng, filled with fear and unease.
Hearing this, Ning Feng was first stunned—then delighted.
What surprised him was how quickly the Four-Tails surrendered. He had expected it to take a considerable amount of time to fully intimidate it.
But thinking it over, given the variety of techniques he currently possessed, the fact that the Four-Tails had lasted this long was already impressive.
Just as Ning Feng was reflecting on this, a clear, pleasant system notification suddenly sounded:
"Congratulations! The Four-Tails tailed beast, Son Gokū, wishes to sign a summoning-beast contract with you. Do you accept?"
Ning Feng froze.
He had been wondering how to form a contract with a tailed beast—yet the system was this considerate!?
That said, he hadn't actually planned to immediately turn the Four-Tails into his own tailed beast and become its jinchūriki.
Among all tailed beasts, Son Gokū was powerful, but it was no match for the Eight-Tails or Nine-Tails. If he rashly became the Four-Tails' jinchūriki, he might end up losing out in the long run.
Wouldn't becoming the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki be far better?
After all, in the original story, Uzumaki Naruto—armed with only half of the Nine-Tails' chakra—had already become nearly invincible in the ninja world.
Let alone possessing the entire Nine-Tails' chakra—something the Four-Tails simply couldn't compare to.
Moreover, once he became the Four-Tails' jinchūriki, he wouldn't be able to become the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki later.
So it made more sense to take the Four-Tails as a summoned beast instead.
Just as Ning Feng was about to accept, Son Gokū suddenly spoke again:
"Lord Feng, you are the strongest and most talented ninja the Four-Tails has ever seen. The Four-Tails is willing not only to become your summoned beast, but also to provide you with tailed-beast chakra to help you become a jinchūriki."
"When you no longer need the Four-Tails, you can freely become the jinchūriki of another tailed beast."
Hearing this, Ning Feng looked at Son Gokū in surprise.
With this, he could borrow the Four-Tails' chakra and summon it to fight—truly the best of both worlds.
"Not bad. I didn't expect you to think this far ahead."
Ning Feng nodded slightly.
A new contract scroll appeared before him. It clearly stated that Ning Feng could freely borrow the Four-Tails' chakra and summon it at will.
In short, after signing this contract, Ning Feng could become the Four-Tails' jinchūriki whenever he wished—or not become one at all.
The freedom was extremely high.
Ning Feng didn't hesitate. With a casual motion, he signed his name onto the contract scroll.
The Four-Tails looked deeply at Ning Feng, then quickly signed its own name as well.
The moment both signatures were complete, the contract instantly took effect.
At once, both Ning Feng and the Four-Tails felt an unseen connection form between them.
Within the Sea of Consciousness, with just a single thought from Ning Feng, the Four-Tails could appear at his side.
More importantly, whenever Ning Feng wished to borrow the Four-Tails' chakra, he could instantly gain an enormous surge of chakra—his combat power skyrocketing.
If anyone had been watching at that moment, they would have been shocked to discover that Ning Feng had become a perfect jinchūriki—far more complete than Rōshi or Han—able to fully unleash the terrifying power of a tailed beast.
The sensation was indescribably exhilarating.
At that very instant, a series of crisp system notifications rang out again:
"Congratulations! You have signed a tailed-beast contract with the Four-Tails, Son Gokū!"
"Congratulations! You have become the Four-Tails' jinchūriki (100%)!"
"Congratulations! You have learned Borrow Tailed-Beast Chakra!"
"Congratulations! You have learned Partial Tailed-Beast Transformation!"
"Congratulations! You have learned Complete Tailed-Beast Transformation!"
"Congratulations! You have learned Lava Release Chakra Mode!"
…
The continuous stream of notifications left Ning Feng ecstatic.
He had originally thought mastering these abilities would take time—but the system granted them all at once.
In that instant, Ning Feng clearly felt vast amounts of power and memory surge into his body, elevating his understanding of tailed beasts to an entirely new level.
When Ning Feng opened his eyes again, the Four-Tails had completely vanished, transforming into a beam of light that flowed into his body.
Konan, Nagato, and the others stood frozen in shock.
Normally, subduing a tailed beast required special sealing tools to successfully seal it.
Without such tools, one would need Wood Release—or extremely powerful ocular techniques—to suppress it.
Yet throughout the entire process, Lord Feng had suppressed the tailed beast using only his Sharingan.
How terrifying must that ocular power be!?
Moreover, they clearly remembered that when Iwagakure had suppressed the Four-Tails in the past, it had cost them enormous manpower, resources, and effort…
And yet their Lord Feng had subdued it just like that!?
