Knowing exactly what the Three-Heads is may be one of the few truly unsolvable mysteries of the shinobi world. To some, it is an alpha predator from the times long ago when beasts like Roen and the Genryu conquered the world. To others, it is a demon from another world like Moryo. To yet more, it may be evidence of the existence of another true Ten-Tails having been defeated and split in a far off land just as the Sage of Six Paths did on Earth. The truth may never be found. All that is known is that the Three-Headed Guardian Beast has the might of a Tailed Beast, and is strangely bound to the Hidden Dream Village, deep within the Land of Ancestors. The beast's might alone has kept the country from being invaded, even from great nations like the Lands of Wind and Fire, having a non-aggression pact with each of its neighbors. However, peace was not enough for Gensui, an elder of the clan that founded the Hidden Dream Village, but had been disgraced by the Tenro clan's use of the Three-Heads. Organizing a false attack from Itachi Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki on his own village with help from Danzo, during which he faked his death, and using the same ability to fake a One-Tails attack on the Hidden Leaf Village, among other attacks, he pitched the two villages toward war in an attempt to unseal the Three-Heads. After using his own son, Taisa, to create a false tailed beast, the Three-Heads was unsealed. With this, Gensui revealed himself, betraying Ryuka and taking the chakra orb capable of controlling the beast. It ultimately took the combined efforts of Kakashi, Naruto, Sakura, and Sai to defeat the Three-Heads. |
