Fairy Tail: Jinchuriki

Fast forward to year X781, the 8th seal is finally broken in July. The 8 Tails, Gyuki is finally freed from his seal. Now only the 9 Tails, Kurama is left to be unsealed.

When Gyuki appears, nothing happens to Alex's body. There's no side effect that affects his body like when some of the previous seals were broken. Alex thought he would let out ink from his body, so he's glad that nothing happens.

When Gyuki explains his abilities, Alex is surprised to find out that he has Lightning Release. Alex thought that Gyuki simply has a powerful body and maybe Water Release because he can produce ink.

Turns out that he has Lightning Release and Water Release. He just never shows them in Naruto's story and he also very rarely uses them. He prefers using his physical strength, after all, and if he needs to use "ninjutsu", he just uses his Tailed Beast Bomb because it can defeat most people already.

(A.n: I know it's never shown that Hachibi has Lightning Release. But I just want to give Alex Lightning Release so he can use all basic nature elements. He already has Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water, so he needs Lightning, and I think Hachibi is the most suitable for this role because Hachibi never shows any elemental control so changing his skills is easier. Also, he comes from Kumogakure where the majority of their shinobi use Lightning Release, like Raikage.)

Then Alex finds out another surprising fact. All Tailed Beasts can actually use every type of Nature Transformation. They just excel more in the nature transformations they always use.

"Wait! So you're telling me you can use all elemental magic?"

"Basically yes. We were born from the Ten Tails that was born from the Chakra Fruit. So we are basically the chakra itself. Obviously we have affinity with all types of nature transformation. Even humans actually have affinities with all types of nature transformation. It's just that the levels of affinity with those nature transformations are different. But they can be trained. Some powerful shinobi could train all nature transformations. The example is someone you know, Hashirama, the man who has the power to capture all of us alone. He could use all types of nature transformations after training them. Uchiha Madara can also use all nature transformations." Matatabi is the one explaining as usual.

"So they can use the Lava Release too if he trains it?"

"Kekkei Genkai is another matter. Some Kekkei Genkai are genetics, while some that are the combinations of nature transformations are affected by the levels of affinity of those nature transformations. Hashirama can only use Wood Release but not Lava Release because his affinities with Water and Earth Release are very strong. But his affinity with Fire Release is not that strong, so he can't combine his Earth and Fire Chakra. The matter with affinity is also the reason why Madara or other Uchiha clan members can't copy Kekkei Genkai even if their sharingan is very powerful. Madara can only use Wood Release after he implants Hashirama's flesh into his body. The same applies to us. We have different levels of affinity with nature transformations. That's why we only use what we always use because we have the highest affinities with them."

"I see. You just focus on what you can do the best to focus your attention."

"That's right. Just as most people agreed, focusing on 1 thing and mastering it is better than doing everything and only becoming average or even lower on all of them."

"Then, do I need to just focus on one of you? Like making one of you my main transformation."

"That's not necessary in your case because you don't need to develop our abilities. What you need to learn is only how to use our abilities proficiently. As long as you use our spells as we've taught you, then you will use them at their full potential. Of course, to be proficient, you need to understand our magic. But unlike others, you don't need to develop our magic because we'll be the ones who do it. Our growth is also your growth. You just need to make sure you have enough power, control, and understanding to use our abilities correctly." Matatabi gives him a long lesson as usual.

"Even Naruto could immediately use our power when we were inside his body during the war. Well, he just integrated our power into his skills because he didn't have time to learn more about our power. But it shows that you can use our power right away without any training as long as we allow it. So with just some understanding of our powers, you can quickly use them and master them." Gyuki also gives a lecture to Alex.

"We always assist you when you use our power, so you don't need to worry about not being able to use them. But the power of our spells will still depend on your magic power capacity and control. So you need to keep improving them."

"I see, so you always assist me, huh? No wonder I feel that all your spells are easy to learn."

"Well, it's not like we have any choice but to assist you. You basically become us when you transform and our minds merge. So basically we are forced to assist you when you use our power."

"Oh, right. That's also the reason why Take Over Mages can immediately use the magic of the creatures they take over. It's because they become those creatures themselves and their minds merge. Although they still need time to really understand those creatures' power and abilities. If the Mages aren't strong enough, then the creatures will take over the control instead when they transform. They'll only return to normal when they run out of power or getting defeated. It's the case with Elfman in the early period of the main story when he transforms into that King of Beast." Alex nods in understanding.

He's really glad that he doesn't need to fight the Tailed Beasts for control. If he really needs to fight them, then he's sure he won't win. He believes he is still much weaker than any of them, not to mention all 9 of them together.

Fighting them over mind and body control is the same as trying to use Take Over Magic on Dragons or Gods. He will be the one being taken over instead of the one who takes over. His power was nothing compared to them and they were the ones who basically raised him to be this strong.

Well, they are basically Alex's power and now he has a new power. He starts learning about Gyuki's abilities after the 8 Tails is freed. What he really wants to learn from Gyuki is the Lightning Release because he never learns it.

Gyuki also teaches him some of the 8 Tails' Jinchurikis' skills including from Killer B. The other Tailed Beasts also taught Alex their former Jinchurikis' skills most of the time. After all, Alex is a human and human skills are more suitable for him.

Though what they taught are mostly the Jinchurikis' battle skills, not magic or ninjutsu. For Magic Spells, they still teach him their spells because their spells are stronger than their Jinchurikis' human ninjutsu and more suitable for their power.

One of the battle skills that Gyuki teaches Alex is Lariat, one of Killer B's signature moves. It's a skill that Alex always wants to learn from Gyuki if possible. Though it's mostly just because of curiosity as it is Killer B's skill rather than because he thinks it's a very great skill.

Rather than Lariat, Alex is more excited when Gyuki teaches him Raikage's Lightning Chakra Mode. It didn't have much effect on Gyuki who has a gigantic body. But when Alex uses it in Humanoid Gyuki form, the Lightning Chakra Mode has a big effect.

In Humanoid Gyuki form, Alex basically just became a human-sized Gyuki with legs. In Mini Gyuki form, Alex just becomes a much smaller Gyuki. But unlike in humanoid form, he doesn't have legs in mini form because Gyuki's legs are his tails.

So Alex prefers to use humanoid form instead of mini form when he transforms into Gyuki. Though he becomes like a buffed humanoid bull with octopus tentacles as his tails. But at least he has much better mobility by having legs.

His big size even in humanoid form makes him quite slow though. That's why being able to use Lightning Mode is very helpful because it can increase his speed. As for strength, he doesn't need to worry at all because Gyuki has the strongest physical strength among all Tailed Beasts.

Alex keeps training to use the Tailed Beasts' abilities although he focuses more on Gyuki for now. Then some months pass and it's finally time for this year's S-Class exam again and of course, as an S-Class, he needs to work as the exam's examiner again.
