Other world chimera [Naruto fanfic] - 104. Contract
“Alright, You already know what to do so get on the move.” After Tomoka said that the phantom nodded before sprinting out the cave. Its task was simple: create more phantoms and retake their previous position.
Tomoka for her part deactivated her sage mode. In an instant all the tattoos covering her body were sucked into the black gem in her chest. As the natural energy left her body the black marks around her eyes vanished.
Having recreated her internal phantoms as well, Tomoka’s thinking power was back in full swing. Thanks to this she remembered a little something she had overlooked previously. It just so happens that her mind was so busy making plans for dealing with Danzo that she almost left without making a contract with the spiders.
“Kumoki-san, It seems that in our haste we forgot to make a contract.” Seeing Tomoka’s goofy smile Kumoki sighed internally. She had also overlooked the contract due to her nervousness.
“Right, wait here for a moment while I get the scroll.” Saying this Kumoki turned her gigantic body around before going deeper into the cave.
As Kumoki left Tomoka couldn’t help but notice the nasty wound on the spider’s back. A rather large area of her back wasn’t covered in carapace and instead looked rotten while yellow puss flowed freely out of it.
‘I wonder what happened to her.’
[If I had to guess, either a fight against one of my siblings or one of the other three big beasts.] Taking Kurama’s words into consideration and the looks and state of the wound Tomoka made a guess on who the culprits might be.
First, Saiken also known as the six-tails could be the perpetrator. His acid fueled by tailed beast chakra could be the reason for the puss on the wound. Following the same logic then Katsuyu could also be responsible. However, considering Kumoki’s words when they first met, the most likely one to be the perpetrator is one of the snakes.
“I am back Tomoka-sama, here is the scroll. I assume you already know what needs to be done for the formation of the contract.” As Kumoki spoke she placed a large scroll on the ground before unfurling it. Inside Tomoka could see a few names signed with blood.
Giving the large spider a light nod Tomoka bit her index finger before signing the scroll. As she did, she felt a light connection clicking into position within her. The connection was so faint that nothing could be properly felt from it.
“Alright now that we are done with this I would like to examine that wound of yours Kumoki.” Hearing Tomoka’s words, Kumoki felt a bit reluctant. However, seeing the serious expression of the girl in front of her she decided to let her.
“Please be careful Tomoka-sama.”
As the large spider turned around Tomoka saw the nasty wound once again. Taking into consideration that the wound was probably caused by the snakes she also could guess which snake did it. The white snake sage is the number one possible culprit in Tomoka’s mind. Because of this she decided to be cautious.
While approaching Kumoki’s wound Tomoka’s body was once more covered in her sage mode markings. Her kinagan worked at full power as she collected as much information as she could.
What Tomoka found as she gazed deep into the wound was some strange form of energy in the shape of a snake wreaking havoc within Kumoki’s flesh. This snake is made of a purplish poisonous looking energy and it was constantly fighting against Kumoki’s own energy and flesh. As the battle continued Tomoka could discern a few more things. For starters the energy the snake is made of is also nature energy.
Thinking for a moment, Tomoka ran a few calculations within her mind before making a decision on what to do. A very, very dumb decision some might say.
“Alright Kumoki, I will try and get rid of that nasty thing bothering you”
‘This will probably hurt… a lot’
[Wait, what are you planning on doing?]
Not bothering to answer the big fox, Tomoka used her kinagan’s original ability. Soon enough, the first wisp of purplish energy separated from the serpent as it flew towards her eyes.
