Dancing with the angels
Chapter 8
"What the hell does Gaara think he's doing?" Sasuke demanded as he glanced back towards the room where Naruto was staying. He wanted to stay with Naruto, but he also knew that he would be called on to defend Konoha.
"Tsunade thinks his chakra is doing the same thing to Gaara's brain that Naruto's chakra is doing to his heart." Iruka replied. "Naruto discovered that Gaara had a pretty severe personality change on your mission. She thinks that chakra is responsible for that."
"Then that's a death sentence for him too then." Sasuke said, and Iruka nodded.
"What do we do about Naruto?" Sasuke asked.
"Since he's sleeping, we leave him here, I don't think this will last long. I believe that he may be searching for one person and if he doesn't find that person he will destroy the village." Iruka replied.
"Naruto better be okay." Sasuke muttered as both he and Iruka left the apartment.
"He will be, you noticed that he didn't exactly have the energy to use any of his chakra." Iruka replied and they hurried towards the village gates where they knew the Kazekage and his troop would be demanding entrance.
Sure, enough Suna's troops were attacking anyone who looked like they were going to take violent action against them. A few short minutes later Tsunade arrived to stand in front of the Konoha Ninja.
"What the hell are you doing?" Tsunade demanded. "Why the hell are you attacking your ally."
"Our brother is not sick as you claim he is." Temari declared. "Our medics have discovered nothing wrong with his chakra system."
"Then why are you here?" Tsunade demanded. "We have enough issues of our own to deal with without you adding to it. Why are you really here?"
"You can consider Suna and Konoha's partnership at an end. Your Jinchuuriki has caused our Kazekage endless grief and we demand that unless you turn Naruto over, then Suna will have no choice but to retrieve Naruto ourselves." Temari said.
"No. I will not hand Naruto over." Tsunade said. "He's extremely sick right now, traveling anywhere will likely kill him."
"If that's the way you want it, Shikaku." Temari called. "Destroy everything in sight." Iruka and Sasuke watched in horror as the Kazekage stepped forward and began shooting chakra bombs at any of the nearby buildings.
"How the hell are we supposed to stop that?" Sasuke said, as far as he knew the only way to fight a Jinchuuriki was with another Jinchuuriki but since theirs was currently on his deathbed, Sasuke wasn't sure what they were going to do.
"We have to find a way, we can't hand Naruto over on a silver platter." Iruka hissed, as he watched as Inochi and Ino both tried their mind control jutsu on him. When that didn't work both Shikimaru and his father tried their shadow jutsu.
"Keep him from getting to the middle of the village." Tsunade said. "We will stop him at all costs."
"I'll send his ass to hell." Sakura called out as she jumped towards Gaara, intent on knocking him into the next century. Sasuke leaped up and grabbed her.
"We have to stop him." Sakura cried, frustrated that Sasuke wasn't allowing her to do her job.
"You also have a child to think about." Sasuke said. "In case you have forgotten. I don't want to lose either of you. I think, Father, Itachi and I can try and cast a genjutsu on him and pray that that works."
"We have to protect the village, he's causing untold damage." Sakura said, watching as Gaara shot another chakra bomb that slammed into another building destroying it.
"We will stop him." Sasuke assured her. "How about you go tend to the injured." Sakura nodded and turned her back to Gaara and started towards the injured. As if sensing her, Sasuke watched in horror as Gaara turned his attention to Sakura, but just as Gaara shot off a chakra bomb a flashing light exploded around Sakura, blinding everyone.
Once the flash disappeared, Sasuke noticing that Naruto stood there, shielding Sakura from Gaara. Sasuke could tell that Naruto was still incredibly weak, but he stood there, determined to protect the ones he cared for.
"Naruto." Sasuke called out in fear for what Naruto was about to do. Naruto turned to him and offered him a small smile, before closing his eyes for a moment before allowing the nine tailed demon chakra's to take over.
"That stupid asshole." Sasuke cried out watching in horror as Naruto cried out, his flesh burning with red chakra as he attacked Gaara, meeting the other Jinchuuriki fist for fist, each blow weaker than the one before, Sasuke could tell that Naruto was determined that he was going to protect his village at all costs.
"That fool" Sasuke said, watching as Naruto sent Gaara flying, rage filling his face as he roared.
"There is a seal that Jiraiya would use on Naruto to calm the nine tails, I'm thinking that seal will work on Gaara as well." Tsunade called. "That will be the only way we can try and save Naruto, we have to try it, while Naruto has Gaara distracted." Sasuke nodded and quickly headed towards the white-haired man that was already getting the seal ready.
"You have to place it on his forehead." Jiraiya explained and Sasuke nodded, Naruto would die from the amount of chakra that he was using if they didn't do something to stop Gaara now.
"Save our boy." Jiraiya said and Sasuke nodded again and raced towards the area where Naruto and Gaara were fighting. Sasuke paused briefly and glanced at Naruto and held the paper with the seal on it up so that Naruto could see it, Naruto nodded and knocked Gaara across the street, Sasuke quickly hurrying towards the man as Naruto gripped Gaara's throat allowing Sasuke to take the chance to slam the seal against Gaara's forehead and sure enough within a few seconds the one tailed demon disappeared leaving an unconscious Gaara on the ground.
Turning to Naruto, Sasuke watched as Naruto's shaking hand released his grip from Gaara's throat, and Naruto released an agonizing wail as the nine tailed demon chakra slowly disappeared, Naruto gave another cry of pain as he collapsed to the ground, his hand clutched at his chest as he struggled to inhale enough oxygen. There was no doubt in anyone's mind what was happening, and despite knowing that the odds were against Naruto, Tsunade was determined that he wouldn't be going this way.
Sasuke, Sakura and Tsunade rushed over to the collapsed teen's side and Tsunade immediately began pumping chakra into Naruto's heart, silently urging the teen to keep fighting.
"You saved us Naruto." Tsunade cried as tears filled her eyes. "You saved the village yet again. Don't die on us now."
"Idiot," Sakura cried out tears filling her eyes as she watched Naruto's chest heave, she didn't know exactly what was going on with Naruto, but she knew that it wasn't good. Sasuke grabbed her hand and held tightly to it, Naruto would likely get moved to the hospital, and he knew unless a heart was offered up Naruto would die.
"What do we do with the Suna nins?" Someone asked Tsunade.
"Arrest them and toss them into prison until I can figure out what to do with them, I have more important matters to attend to right now." Tsunade said, standing up and turning the Anbu beside her.
"Take him to the ER immediately, we have no time to wait. I will meet you there." She commanded before turning back to Temari and Kankuro.
"Gaara will be taken to a hospital." Tsunade instructed. "But if his condition is anything like Naruto's there isn't likely anything I can do for him. Even though he attacked my village, Naruto would want to show him mercy. I will try to help, but I believe he may be too far gone. As for you two, if that's the case I will let you spend his last moments with him, but as soon as he is gone. your asses are in prison, for facilitating this attack on the village. I cannot let this attack go completely unpunished. Truth be told if you face the council, you will likely face the death penalty for your roles."
At the hospital, Tsunade rushed into a treatment room with Naruto. She knew his teammates would be in the waiting room, worrying over what was going on with their friend. As Tsunade placed on oxygen mast over Naruto's face, she could see the fear in his eyes. She hated that it come to this, that they hadn't been able to defeat the one tailed demon without him.
"You brave boy." Tsunade whispered as she wiped away a tear that had dropped from Naruto's eye and was trailing down his face. "You're brave and selfless and you don't deserve this."
As Naruto lost consciousness, she began pumping more chakra into his heart hoping that she would be able to reverse some of the damage that she knew had been done to his heart. Unfortunately, the more she tired herself the more she noticed that Naruto wasn't responding. And from the way it looked, he probably wouldn't be waking up again. Naruto had slipped into a coma.
"I'm so sorry sweetheart." Tsunade whispered. "I didn't want this to happen to you. I tried to make sure that you didn't use your chakra, but in the end it didn't even matter. We had no choice unless we wanted a bunch of innocent people to die."
"Lady Tsunade what do you want to do?" Shizune asked, she knew the news for Naruto wasn't good. She knew that the odds of Naruto surviving if he used the demonic chakra again were slim to none. She hadn't wanted this for Naruto, but they hadn't had any choice in the matter and now Naruto was going to pay with his life.
"I want him put in a room where he's comfortable." Tsunade said. "He's not gone yet. I want him to be comfortable as possible when he does go. Also, I want his teammates and Iruka to be allowed to have constant access to him."
"Does that mean Sasuke too?" Shizune asked, and Tsunade nodded.
"He deserves to get to say goodbye just as much as anyone else. After all he was Naruto's friend before he was anything else." Tsunade replied. "I want Naruto on life support until his heart gives out, which I don't believe will be too long. Naruto's going to be as comfortable as possible. His life was difficult enough, his death shouldn't be too." Shizune nodded and turned sad eyes to the boy lying on the bed.
"How did it come to this?" Shizune wondered. "Why?"
"I don't know, but he's going to be treated like the hero that he is." Tsunade replied. "I guess I should go inform them of what is going on. And I should probably go see how far gone Gaara is."
"I think considering the situation." Shizune said. "He can wait, they were likely planning on killing Naruto anyways, so I would put him off for as long as possible."
"I can't disagree with that." Tsunade said. "But that's not how Naruto would want it. He cared about Gaara until the very end, Naruto did not want to hurt Gaara and I will do my best to ensure that should Gaara die his death will be as painless as Naruto's."
Sitting in the waiting room, Sasuke stared at the doors that Naruto had been taken behind. His heart pounded in his chest as he recalled what Iruka had said would be likely to happen if he used his chakra again. Sasuke didn't want that to happen, he wanted Naruto to live. The longer he sat there, the more he wished he had given Naruto what he had really wanted. Just one night with Sasuke, and he had blown it because he had been afraid that he would have caused Naruto more damage.
"I wonder how he's doing." Sakura said from beside him, he could hear the worry in her voice and knew that she was just as scared as he was.
"Not good I'm sure." Iruka answered. "He was told not to use the demon's chakra again or he would be facing some serious consequences."
"What are you talking about?" Sakura asked. "What kind of consequences?"
"The nine tails chakra has been damaging Naruto's heart." Iruka explained, figuring it would be better for them to know now what was going on with their friend and teammate. "He's already had one heart attack over it, Lady Tsunade said if he kept using the chakra it would only damage his heart more severely and likely end up killing him."
"So, he has no chance at survival?" Neij asked from where he was sitting with his team members.
"Probably not." Iruka said. "You saw him, he released a ton of the demon's chakra, I don't know how he could have avoided causing any more damage. I was going to adopt him." Iruka murmured. "He wanted to think about it. He was afraid of this situation happening and he would end up hurting everyone."
"For what it's worth you would have done well with him." Kakashi said. "He loved and adored you, I imagine if this hadn't happened he would have accepted you as his father."
"I don't want him to die." Iruka said, as tears burst from his eyes, and sobs tore through him. "He doesn't deserve this. He deserves to live and be loved the way he wants."
"He's a fighter." Ten-Ten said. "If there is any way that he can beat this, Naruto will find a way."
"Lady Tsunade doesn't know how to fix it, without Naruto getting another heart." Iruka said. "And I think right now, she would be hard pressed to find one."
"Take one from those Suna creeps." Lee suggested. "I don't see where they need one anyone more."
"Naruto wouldn't like it." Neij said. "He cares too much about everyone else, and not enough about himself."
"When are we going to hear anything?" Sakura wondered, she wanted to know what was going on but at the same time she didn't want to know. She didn't want to lose the teammate that felt like a brother to her.
"They say no news is good news." Sasuke said quietly, his mind racing with the possibilities, if Naruto somehow made it through this. He was going to make sure that Naruto got the one night with him. Sasuke would pleasure the other so much that Naruto wouldn't want to die so that he could continue to feel the pleasure that Sasuke could give him. In the moment, he didn't even care about his marriage to Sakura, Sasuke would happily destroy it if it meant that Naruto would be alive. That was all that Sasuke wanted, to know that Naruto was alive and somewhat happy. He couldn't stand the thought of there being a Konoha that didn't contain Naruto in it. Closing his eyes, Sasuke silently prayed for some good news, that maybe he hadn't done as much damage to his heart as Tsunade had expected him to do. Even then Sasuke had a sinking feeling in his stomach that all their lives were about to change.
Sasuke felt Sakura's hand tighten around his, and he looked up to find Tsunade standing in the doorway to the waiting room.
"How is he doing?" Iruka asked, the red eyed man staring up at her. Sasuke's heart hurt knowing that he hadn't been able to adopt Naruto before this happened.
"Not very well I'm afraid." Tsunade answered truthfully. "only about 25 percent of his heart is working right now, and I don't believe that that part will be working for much longer." She paused as she watched the room full of people, slowly come to terms with the fact that they would soon have to get used to a life that didn't contain a certain knuckleheaded blonde in it.
"My Kami." Kakashi whispered. "He really destroyed himself for the village, didn't he?"
"He wouldn't have wanted it any other way." Tsunade replied. "He always wanted to protect this village and get his name on the memorial stone. It will most certainly be going on there, because I don't know of a more courageous death."
"Where is he now?" Iruka asked, tears still streaming down his face, he had been dreading this moment ever since he had heard about Naruto's heart trouble.
"He's in ICU on life support." Tsunade said.
"Isn't that kind of pointless if he's going to die?" Sakura asked quietly.
"I want his death to be as easy as possible, without life support his passing wouldn't be pain free, he would have to struggle to get oxygen and that's just not acceptable. His life was difficult enough, why should his death be?" Tsunade answered.
"Can we see him?" Iruka asked, and Tsunade nodded.
"I've made sure that everyone here will have unlimited access to him. He deserves to know how much he was loved by everyone." Tsunade replied. "And you guys deserve to get to spend his last moments with him as well."
"How long does he have?" Iruka asked.
"At this point, I would say 24 hours or so maybe less." Tsunade replied. "But knowing him, he will try to fight a little longer."
"And probably suffer while doing it, to make sure that we are all going to be okay." Iruka said. "I don't want him to suffer anymore."
"None of us do." Tsunade said. "Which is why I am doing everything in my power to make sure that he's as comfortable as possible."
"When can we see him?" Sasuke asked, unsure of how he was going to be able to say goodbye.
"Soon. He's getting settled in right now." Tsunade replied, and Sasuke turned towards Sakura.
"I need to talk to you in the hall." Sasuke said and Sakura nodded and the two stood and headed out into the hall.
"What's going on?" Sakura asked, and Sasuke took a dee breath, wondering where to begin.
"Naruto was in love with me." Sasuke said finally. "and I am pretty sure I have the same feelings for him." Sakura frowned at him. "But I am with you, and I have no intention of changing that. Naruto had one last request and I was wondering if you would be okay with me fulfilling it."
"What was it?" Sakura asked, wondering why Sasuke had kept a secret like this from her. Why had he even married her if he was in love with Naruto?
"He wanted me to have just one night where it was just me and him." Sasuke said.
"First of all, how long have you been gay?" Sakura asked.
"Not exactly gay," Sasuke answered. "More like bisexual, I like both guys and girls, and for as long as I can remember."
"So why did you get with me then?" Sakura asked.
"Because I was trying to cover up what I felt for Naruto." Sasuke replied honestly. "And I didn't want my parents to disown me. Don't get me wrong, I care about you and given enough time I can probably learn to love you, it might take a while, but I will try from here on out to be the best husband that I can be."
"You said that he wanted one night with you?" Sakura asked and Sasuke nodded. "What did he mean by that?"
"It means that he wanted me to fuck him." Sasuke replied, this is where he worried that Sakura would get angry at Naruto for doing this.
"He's comatose now though, don't you think that would be a little weird?" Sakura asked and Sasuke shrugged.
"He would see from wherever he is, that I done my best to give him what he has longed for so long." Sasuke said. "I don't want him to be alone if he leaves this world tonight. He deserves to have at least felt a fraction of the love that he deserves."
"I can't argue with that." Sakura said. "I should hate that you feel this way about him. I don't, my heart bleeds that he didn't get what he needed. You have my permission." Sakura said. "Just make sure you do it well." Sasuke nodded and leaned forward and grabbed Sakura and pulled her towards him.
"I'm sorry." Sasuke whispered. "You don't deserve someone like me either. You deserve someone who can give you their whole heart, who isn't a coward. Kami I don't want him to die."
"Neither do I." Sakura said, as she tightened her grip on him. "He doesn't deserve this. I wonder how long; his heart has been failing him."
"It's not his heart that failed him, it's his body." Sasuke muttered. "Naruto's heart was the strongest of any that I have ever seen."
"I agree." Sakura murmured knowing that what Sasuke planned on doing was going to be twice as hard on Sasuke because Sasuke cared about Naruto as a friend."
"Do your parents know about you?" Sakura asked quietly and Sasuke shook his head.
"I don't plan on telling them either, the only one that really knows about me is Itachi." Sasuke replied.
"What's going to happen to the nine tailed demon once Naruto passes away?" Sakura wondered. "I'm sure he doesn't die with Naruto."
"I'm not sure." Sasuke said thoughtfully "But I bet Tsunade has a plan. I'll find out what it is. I will be the next Jinchuuriki if I must be. It will be one way to keep Naruto alive with us." Sakura nodded, she understood what Sasuke was planning, she just hoped that Sasuke would have an easier time than Naruto had as a Jinchuuriki. Something told her that it would be easier on him, simply because he was an Uchiha.
"What do you think is going to happen with Gaara?" Sakura asked.
"I hope he goes to hell for what he was trying to do. Not only did he injury Konoha civilians, but he had planned on doing something to Naruto. I wouldn't put it past him to have been planning on actually killing Naruto." Sasuke said as the two headed back into the waiting room. Tsunade was talking to Iruka quietly, and Sasuke approached and waited until Tsunade was finished before saying anything to her.
"I don't know what you are planning to do with the nine tailed demon after Naruto passes." Sasuke said. "But I will volunteer to become the next Jinchuuriki."
"Are you sure?" Tsunade asked. "That's a really serious decision to be making."
"It's one way of keeping Naruto with me." Sasuke replied. "And I will also want a few hours alone with Naruto later."
"Why?" Tsunade asked. "He's in his final hours, he deserves to be with everyone."
"Because I plan on giving him the love that he wanted from me, but I was too much of a coward to give into." Sasuke replied.
"I don't think I need to tell you that that's not a very good idea. Especially if other people hear about it, they will think that you found a way to take advantage of him." Tsunade replied. "And considering his condition that wouldn't look good for you."
"He asked me to do it before Gaara attacked." Sasuke said. "I didn't do it then because he wasn't in the condition to do something like that. Maybe I can make him feel better before he leaves this world permanently."
"He probably doesn't have the ability to feel much right now." Tsunade said. "Although, I do believe that it's not a good idea, but considering that it's you, I believe it might do a little good. I'll make sure you get a couple hours free later." Sasuke nodded and returned to the seat that he had previously vacated.
"What's going to happen to Gaara?" Sakura asked, as she sat down beside Sasuke, one hand rubbing her stomach.
"I'm getting ready to go and check him over." Tsunade replied. "Naruto wouldn't want me to do anything, but I can't let him get by with attacking the village."
"Does he have the same thing going on with him that Naruto has going on with him?" Sakura asked. "If that's the case, why is he reacting so completely different than Naruto?"
"It is the same thing, only Gaara's brain is being affected while Naruto's heart was getting affected." Tsunade explained. "Which means that Gaara's personality took a hard hit, which explains the way he was acting so violently."
"Then that means he is dying as well." Neji said. "wouldn't be better to just let him go?"
"I certainly don't plan on treating him medically, only seeing how far gone he is and if he is going to recover consciousness." Tsunade replied. "I'm not entirely sure that he's going to regain consciousness."
"I almost feel sorry for his family." Sakura said. "That they must lose their brother to something like this, that his family has to deal with his personality changes that ended up with his death. It's not like he asked for this to happen, he didn't ask to be a Jinchuuriki."
"None of them had a choice in the matter." Tsunade murmured. "I just wonder if it's affecting the other Jinchuuriki."
"Should we expect more attacks then?" Sasuke asked. "From the other Jinchuuriki?"
"I honestly don't know." Tsunade replied. "I am hoping that that won't be the case, but it wouldn't hurt to prepare for something like that. Though I am thinking that if it the chakra disease took Naruto and Gaara down so quickly, they won't have the time to do anything."
"I hope not." Sasuke said. "All Naruto wanted to do was to protect this village and since he can't, I will."
"If that's all the questions for now, I'm going to go check on Gaara. Naruto should be settled here shortly, I will let you guys know when you can see him."
"We would appreciate it." a red eyed Iruka said softly, and Tsunade's heart went out to him. She knew that he had been planning on adopting Naruto, only he'd never gotten the chance.
"He loved you, Iruka so much, I'm sure if this hadn't happened, I'm sure that he would have allowed you to adopt him." Tsunade said softly, and tears formed in Iruka's eyes.
"I loved him just as much." Iruka said, as a sob tore through his throat. "Kami, I don't want him to die. I want him to be alive and happy."
"We all want that." Tsunade said. "you don't know how much I wish I could change things for him. I want nothing more than to be able to heal him, it doesn't make me feel good as a medic to know that there isn't anything that I can do for him." Tsunade turned, hating to see how hard Naruto's friends were taking his pending death. Tears threatened to choke her as she tried to forget that she wasn't able to save Naruto or do anything for him to begin with. She couldn't even reverse the damage that the chakra had caused to his heart. She couldn't even slow it down so that he could have had a little longer. She couldn't do anything for him and that hurt more than anything. She was supposed to be some great medic and she couldn't even save the one she cared for. What kind of medic did that make her? Not as good as they thought she was, clearly.
Taking a deep breath, Tsunade released it slowly. She needed to be able to think clearly. She needed to be able to examine Gaara without her grief getting in the way. Did she really want to, after what Gaara had done? No, but because he was Naruto's friend, even if he didn't act like it towards the end, she would do it.
Upon walking into Gaara's hospital room, Tsunade wasn't too surprised to see that Gaara was still unconscious. If Gaara's condition was as serious as Naruto's Tsunade didn't think he would be waking up.
"Has he woken up at all?" Tsunade asked as she approached the bed, taking note that Gaara was also currently on life support, a tube that delivered oxygen to his lungs was taped to his mouth.
"No, he hasn't made a sound or a movement." Temari said, from where she was sitting beside her bed. "How's Naruto?"
"Do you really care?" Tsunade asked as he placed her hand over Gaara's head, using her chakra to cheek Gaara's brain. Temari sighed.
"Yes, I do. I know things are kind of strained right now." Temari said. "I did happen to notice that even with the nine tails chakra, he wasn't as powerful as usual. You mentioned that you think that his chakra was causing the changes in his personality?"
"Yes, for some reason the one tailed demon's chakra is damaging Gaara's brain which is responsible for the changes in his personality." Tsunade replied.
"Can it be reversed?" Temari asked. Tsunade shook her head.
"Unfortunately, no. The disease progresses quickly, Naruto is going to pass away soon because of his issues." Tsunade replied as she took note that Gaara didn't have any brain activity going on, he was already dead. All that was left was to turn off the machines that was keeping his body alive.
"So, my brother is going to die?" Temari asked and Tsunade nodded.
"And probably within the next few hours, he has no brain activity which means that what you are looking at it is nothing but a shell. What made him Gaara is already gone." She replied. "I would say that I'm sorry for that kind of news, but I'm not. He came here with the intention of attacking Naruto, he deserves what he got."
"He's not just a monster." Temari said. "You said it yourself the disease was responsible for what happened. Gaara can't be blamed for that for the changes that he didn't know was coming. It wasn't like any of us knew that the Jinchuuriki's had some strange illness. What's happening to Naruto?"
"His chakra is attacking his heart, and he's already on his death bed." Tsunade replied.
"Can you not give him Gaara's heart if Gaara passes before he does?" Temari asked.
"If they were the same blood type maybe." Tsunade replied. "However, I don't know that Naruto is even strong enough to survive the surgery. He's incredibly weak as it is. I doubt that he will last until the end of the night to be honest."
"How did this happen?" Temari asked. "How did their chakra get confused and start attacking their hosts body?"
"I don't know. I suppose it has something to do with how long they have been Jinchuuriki and their bodies grew tired of the two different chakra systems." Tsunade replied.
"I guess that makes sense." Temari said. "For what it's worth, I apologize for not taking this more seriously. I didn't think it was possible since Jinchuuriki's heal so quickly."
"It makes me wonder what kind of disease can wipe out an entire population of Jinchuuriki." Tsunade said thoughtfully. "And also, if the other Jinchuuriki are experiencing something like this. I might have to track the others down and see what's happening to them if their respective Kage's will allow me too."
"Maybe this can be stopped before anymore Jinchuuriki lose their life." Tsunade said. If there was any more Jinchuuriki that were like Gaara, reacting violently. If that was the case, then there would be more violent attacks. Could they be stopped? Or were they already in the process of dying? Gaara and Naruto had gone down quickly so if the other Jinchuuriki were affected as well, maybe it was the same for them.
