Sakura and Shizune leave to help Naruto and Bee while Tobi tries to use the Gedo Statue on the Four-Tails. Naruto escapes Son Goku’s body by forcing it to regurgitate him. Inside his mind, Son reveals the chakra rod is stuck at his neck base. Naruto pulls it out despite Tobi’s interference. Kurama watches silently, remembering Naruto’s persistence and accepting his genuine desire to help the Tailed-Beasts. Naruto uses a Sage Mode clone left inside Son to locate the rod’s exact position. He then uses Frog Strike to push the rod out of the Four-Tails, successfully freeing the beast from its control.
