Filthy Gamer in Narutoverse: 239

Title: Truth of Man and God (1)

As Kai stated, he wanted to have a solemn conversation with Kushina and Tsunade—separately. But his wish for seriousness means shit compared to the forces of nature the two are since his words evoke different reactions from them for varying reasons.

“What?” Kushina yells at the top of her lungs within her seal’s space etched in the center of her forehead instead of her navel. The dimly lit hallway house a floating Kai and Kushina as they face against a giant nine-tailed fox surrounded by—a now questionable—ever-present puddle of water. The giant fox’s furry ears twitch as it grunts in annoyance while Kai stares at Kyubi.

‘Soldier through it,’ Kai exhorts internally, ignoring Kushina’s wide eyes and almost distraught expression as he repeats himself. “You’ve been dodging my questions for a while. I need answers. I know you have these answers, some of them at least. Help me—and I will stop sleeping with Kushina.”

The redhead visibly quivers as she stares at him dumbly before flames of fury erupt in her heart.

“Kai!” She snarls loudly, charging at him with her spiritual phasing through him as he groans internally. He won’t stop fucking Kushina, of course! He isn’t a rotten dumbfuck! But he needed to keep Kushina out of the Kushina due to the giant, furry chip on her shoulders. Kushina turns around angrily, venting, “Stop lying!”

Her words catch Kai by surprise as he looks at Kushina.

“Do you think Kyubi will ever believe such a lie!” She clenches her fist. “And I told you! Nobody messes with Kyubi anymore but me!”

Kai and Kyubi look at the girl with strange expressions as Kushina snaps at her lover furiously. “Stop treating Kyubi like a thing without feelings, dattebane! That’s why Kyubi remains angry all the time! How would you feel if everyone treated you like a thing to use? Apologize and be nice to Kyubi for once!”

Kai keeps staring at Kushina as silence descends in the seal’s space.

The giant creature doesn’t move at all. Kyubi’s eyes are equally round with surprise as her slitted red gaze drifts between Kushina and Kai.

His gaze shifts from surprise to understanding before he calmly nods. “Sorry, Kushina, Kyubi.” He looks down at where the beast lies. “I took your relationship with Kushina for granted. Sorry about that.”

“And?” Kushina sets her hands akimbo, “Shouldn’t you say—I will make it up to you with hours of cuddles and snacks on the bed, dattebane!”

“I will make it up to you with hours of cuddles and snakes on the bed with a side of some spooning fun, dattebane,” He smirks and sighs softly. Kushina brightens visibly at the addition as she grins, “See? You didn’t have to add the last bit, but you can be sooo kind~!”

“Hmph,” a rough snort fills the space as Kyubi growls, “I will accept escaping this prison as an apology!”

“Or Kushina’s abstinence?” Kai offers.

“Kai!” Kushina pouts.

“What? I’m speaking the truth this time.” Kai half-shrugs with a teasing smirk.

“Huh?” Kushina's eyes widen as she snorts, crossing her arms. “Meanie.”

“So?” Kai reverts his attention to Kyubi. “Indra, Asura, and Ten-Tails. Collect all nine-tailed names and ascend with the divinity of ten. What does all of this mean? Rikudo isn’t alone. He had a mother—”

Kyubi’s fur stands on its tip as she bares her teeth, “Stop talking!” Chakra visibly fluctuates around Kyubi as she lets lose a primal roar that sends waves of pressure against the duo in a vain attempt to push them back!

Kai narrows his eyes as Kushina whispers, “You’re… afraid?”

Kyubi snarls as she stares at Kai murderously, “Try asking me stupid things again!”

“It certainly means something,” Kai holds back his urge to use every tool in his arsenal to force the truth out of the nuclear equivalent of chakra as he glances at Kushina again before reigning his instincts of being efficient. “If it’s dangerous,” he whispers with a defeated sigh, “I need to know.”

Kyubi grits her jaws, her muzzle and nose trembling as chakra fluctuates around her whiskers. “Dangerous? It’s all your fault!”

“What do you mean?” Kai questions.

“Did you think that Dry Cunt is the best this world has to offer?” Kyubi suddenly starts laughing out of anger! “That old bitch doomed you all! She thought she was hot shit just because the Uzumakis were ‘His’ passion project, but even that bitch didn’t know everything! She broke the lock!”

“See? You have to explain clearly—”

“No!” Kyubi snaps loudly. “I don’t! I have no fucking obligation! Fuck all of you selfish, unhinged humans!” Kushina’s worried expression reflects in Kyubi’s round, bestial eyes as she roars, “No matter what you say! No matter what you do! I HATE YOU! Treating me better? Just because we shared a banter or two? Just because I LET YOU take some of my chakra? Don’t kid yourself, Kushina! You’re doomed, and so am I! So let’s drop our fucking pretenses—”

She heaves loudly, sending shockwaves in the seal’s space as her eyes lock against Kushina’s dazed gaze. Kyubi could see in slowed time how Kushina’s orbs started glazing with moisture before tears collected under her lower eyelid, and they eventually escaped down her round cheeks with one tear every blink of her eyes.

Kushina silently disappears from the seal’s space as Kai remains, staring at Kyubi with a considerate gaze.

“What?” Kyubi regains her anger as she buries her volatile emotions born of Kushina’s tears. “Angry that I made her cry? Huh?”

“Well,” Kai hums as he regards the beast. “Whose passion projects are the Uzumaki? You never named that person.”

“Fuck off!” Kyubi roars! “Leave me alone for once!”

“Just because you feel bad for what you said?” Kai sneers. “Nah, I’m toxic that way, Dear Tailed-Beast. Any experienced man can see you didn’t mean half the shit you said to Kushina, and it will hurt you more than my adorable Ramen Heroine. I’m staying right here—away from Kushina—as she simmers in confusion, hurt, and guilt for things she doesn’t even know and shares the blame for. I could be out there with her—but I will stay here. And it’s all because of you.”

Kai has first-hand experience with how easily Kushina can drill past one’s defenses and find a spot in another’s heart, turning into one dusty fart couch of her emotions and needs. The fact Kyubi admits she had a hand in helping Kushina acquire her Nine-Tailed Chakra Cloak speaks to Kushina’s ability to manipulate emotions without even knowing it!

‘It’s probably because of her cute face and voice?’ Kai muses, but he knows the truth. Kushina is just too genuine for this world of Shinobi, and no, not even the Uzumaki are such unique products! Kai has experience with many Uzumaki clan members from his time in Uzushiogakure.

Kai looks at Kyubi intensely. “You heard what I desire, right? It sounds like something big is coming, and we know nothing of it. I want to protect those few who showed me kindness and love me. Please.”

Kyubi scoffs and returns to her usual position of resting her head on her folded paws.

But Kai isn’t one to quit.

“You lost your shit when I talked about Rikudo’s mother. Fine, don’t speak of her. Tell me about Indra, Asura, and the Ten-Tails instead—”

“She IS the fucking Divine Ten-Tails,” Kyubi’s snarl cuts Kai off as she looks away. “And now she is awake, somewhere, bidding her time. We, the Nine-Tailed Beasts, were created to lock one-half of her existence, but your Dry Mistress had an unhealthy need of living—because of you.”

The beast stares up at Kai with fear and hatred. “It’s because of you, Kai. It’s all because of you.”

“What is wrong with wanting to live?” Kai argues and shakes his head. “If it’s because of me, just point me in the right direction. I will deal with the issue.”

“I can’t.”

“What?”

“I don’t know where she is,” the Kyubi narrows her eyes. “I feel her at times as if she is still in a state between sleep and consciousness.”

“What about Indra and Asura—”

“You have those eyes in your possession, do you not? Or do you know about the method of creation of those eyes?” Kyubi sneers. “You want the Rinnegan for yourself.”

“I don’t,” Kai smiles. “I believed I didn’t need a Dojutsu to learn their abilities.” Black markings cover his temples as veins bulge near his left eye. Both his eyes transform into Sharingan and Byakugan, the sight of which makes nine of Kyubi’s tail twitch. Their colors are pale-yellow, but they are genuine articles, as Kai continues. “Then I realized the folly of my thoughts. Just because I don’t need a Dojutsu doesn’t mean they won’t make things easier to learn or experience. I can’t replicate Sharingan and Byakugan even now, but I imagine it will be fulfilling to replicate Dojutsu!”

He grins. “I have no craving for Rinnegan because of the power it represents, got it? It’s just another challenge I want to take on! I love this world, Kyubi! The things I can learn, the things I can experience here are top-class!”

“As opposed to what?” Kyubi narrows her eyes. “What are you comparing this shitty world to?”

Kai wags his fingers.

“Look, I don’t care about history lessons, alright. Just answer two questions for me. How are Indra and Asura related to Rikudo? And what clan does Asura hail from?”

“All I know is,” Kyubi seethes softly. “The Sage of Six Paths created the Uzumaki for a special purpose and left one of his true inheritances with those red-haired assholes!”

“Nothing about Indra and Asura?”

“Who the fuck cares about them? I’m not a memory machine, asshole! Like humans, I remember important memories. But what I deem unneeded are as muddy as your face will be if you don’t leave now!”

“Worried that Kushina will cry herself to sleep?” Kai smirks as Kyubi seethes, “Out!”

Kai sighs and leaves.

He truly expected Kyubi to have some answers, but all he got is questions in return. He knows Kyubi has heard of the names Indra and Asura since she could equate them to the Rinnegan. So, the least she must know of them is the two had something that allowed the creation of the Rinnegan.

But Kai wants to confirm one suspicion.

“Seeking stability, Rikudo created Yin and Yang,” Kai whispers. “I thought Indra and Asura were Rikudo’s children—but why the word ‘create?’ You said the Rikudo ‘created’ the Uzumaki Clan. What were Indra and Asura?”

Kyubi looks at Kai deeply before replying in a resounding and clearly sad tone.

“They were failures, like the rest of us and Rikudo’s remaining living legacies. We’re all failures meant for doom.”

Kai nods, muttering. “Then it’s a great fucking thing I’m here.”

‘Hmph, Arrogant!’ Kyubi snorts internally as Kai adds with a smile. “Thanks, really—not for the information.”

Kyubi frowns and looks up again.

“Thanks for always keeping Kushina company. Despite what I say about taking one step at a time, I tend to chew more than I can bite, and it makes me pay less attention to those around me. I’m trying to learn not to do that. Keeping up with relationships is harder than I expected, and it’s nothing like in the books Jiraiya writes. So, thanks.”

Kai smiles at the beast with genuine emotion without needing an angry Kushina on his case.

“I know Kushina adores you a lot. So, I will help your case with her.”

Kyubi doesn’t want to admit it, but she feels slight relief in her heart as Kai’s smile takes a sudden and menacing turn!

“So, I will console her and sleep with her. That always brightens her up~! I hope you don’t mind head pats 'cause I’m going to shower Kushina with them!”

He disappears in a blink of an eye as Kyubi’s roar resounds—“I HATE YOU!”

But there is something else Kyubi feels quaking inside of her body with debauched fervency—and she hates(loves) it.
