This Naruto is A Bit Too Evil

Chapter 26: Chapter 26 Namikaze Minato



Inside the seal space.

Naruto didn't have much trouble calming Kurama down. After all, it was just a fox that had been imprisoned for decades. What it wanted most now was to see the pained expressions of those who had sealed it away.

Naruto stood directly beneath the massive gate, his Chakra surging around him. The water beneath his feet began to swirl, rising and enveloping half of his body.

Lifted by the water column, Naruto reached the seal on the gate.

He placed his hand on the seal, his fingers gripping one corner, ready to tear it off.

But the moment Naruto made his move, the seal on the gate reacted.

In the quiet moment, a warm, golden light, like sunlight, quietly bloomed, slowly taking the shape of a human figure before Naruto and Kurama. The light was gentle and friendly, not scorching like the sun.

Amidst the dazzling golden glow, a firm yet warm hand accurately grasped Naruto's wrist, stopping him from tearing off the seal.

As the light faded, Naruto finally saw the figure clearly. Blonde hair, blue eyes, a handsome face, wearing a white Hokage robe with a green flak jacket underneath. He did look like him.

The Hokage robe behind the figure fluttered in the seal space, the words 'The Fourth Hokage' dancing in the air.

Minato gently brought Naruto to the ground directly.

He had been gazing at Naruto with tender eyes, his expression gradually becoming one of pride and satisfaction.

When he sealed Kurama inside Naruto, in his final moments, Naruto had been just a crying infant.

Back then, he had imagined what it would be like to reunite with Naruto.

'Would he have become an excellent Ninja? Married with children? Or perhaps, like me, a hero of Konoha?'

But now, seeing Naruto still a child, yet with such a strong build, handsome face, blonde hair, and blue eyes, Minato couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.

'With the identities of the Yondaime Hokage's son and a hero's descendant, Naruto's childhood must have been filled with the support of the villagers, and his life must have been happy.'

"Naruto, you've grown up."

Minato's face was full of pride as he released Naruto's hand, reaching out to ruffle his hair.

But Naruto subtly stepped back, avoiding Minato's hand.

Minato's expression turned slightly awkward, but he smiled and said: "Naruto, maybe Sandaime hasn't told you about me. I am actually..."

"Enough, Yondaime."

Naruto interrupted Minato's words, "I didn't break the seal to listen to your nonsense."

Minato froze, his expression a mix of hesitation and helplessness. He had always been good at handling relationships with his comrades, but when it came to his seemingly rebellious child, he was at a loss. After all, Naruto had been just a tiny baby when he last saw him, and now he was already a young man.

'Could it be that his status in the village had made him rebellious?'

But Minato also felt guilty for leaving Naruto an orphan, so he didn't know what to say.

"It seems Sandaime has taken good care of you."

'At least Naruto looked healthy and strong, so he must have been well-provided for in the village.'

"Naruto, you mustn't easily believe the Nine-Tails' temptations. If you want to train with the Nine-Tails' Chakra, you must have Jiraiya-sensei present."

Minato explained with a gentle smile.

"Hahahaha, Yondaime, this is not my bewitching."

Before Naruto could respond, Kurama's mocking laughter echoed from behind.

"Nine-Tails! So it's you causing trouble!"

Hearing the voice, Minato finally noticed Kurama. He turned to face the giant fox, his eyes filled with anger.

"Hahahaha, Yondaime, you have no right to resent me for this. If it weren't for me, this brat would have died at the hands of Konoha long ago."

Kurama's words weren't entirely wrong. After all, without the Nine-Tails' Chakra providing incredible regenerative abilities, Naruto would have either died or been left with severe injuries from his childhood experiences.

"Impossible!"

Minato instinctively refuted Kurama's claim. He immediately turned back to Naruto, hoping to hear the truth from his son.

Minato is a Ninja raised under the Will of Fire, so he deeply loved the village. As the Hokage, he had devoted everything to Konoha, so there's no way he would believe Kurama's words.

"What a hassle."

Naruto frowned, though his expression remained calm.

"Yondaime, I don't care about this village anymore. The reason I broke the seal is simply to gain more control over the Nine-Tails' Chakra and to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique and the Uzumaki Clan's Sealing Techniques from you."

"Gain more control over Nine-Tails Chakra?" Minato suddenly grasped the key point, and his troubled face showed a hint of pride.

"Naruto, you've already learned to control Nine-Tails' Chakra?"

'Using the Nine-Tails' Chakra was something even Kushina had taken a long time to master. But Naruto, at such a young age, was already able to draw on Nine-Tails' power?'

"Yondaime, you are too arrogant."

Naruto gave Minato a cold look. Before Minato could react, Naruto tore off the seal on the gate and stepped inside, standing beside Kurama.

"It's not about controlling Kurama. Kurama and I are companions."

Minato stared in shock at the scene before him. His entire worldview felt like it was shattering, 'Why? Why could Naruto stand so naturally beside the Nine-Tails?'

Kurama's expression was ferocious, baring its teeth at Minato, its eyes filled with mockery and hatred.

'There was no way this looked like a relationship built on mutual understanding.'

'But Naruto didn't seem to be under any kind of influence either.'

It was only now that Minato calmed down and began to think. From the moment he appeared in the seal space and saw Naruto, all his assumptions about Naruto's life in the village had been based on his own subjective imagination.

He knew how jinchūriki were treated in the village. After all, he had seen it with Kushina. But could even the status of being the Fourth Hokage's son, a hero's child, not change that treatment?

"Naruto, I can teach you the Flying Thunder God Technique and Sealing Techniques. But I'm just a wisp of chakra. I might not be able to teach you everything."

Minato's expression was filled with guilt and shame. He couldn't even fulfill his son's first, and possibly only, request.

"That's not a problem, Kurama." Naruto said, turning to Kurama. This was what they had agreed on.

Kurama possessed an abundance of Yang Nature Chakra, which could greatly enhance the quality and stability of Minato's Chakra. As long as it was replenished in time, there would be no need to worry about it disappearing.

"Tsk, stinky brat."

Kurama's face showed extreme disgust, but it still separated a strand of Chakra, which crossed the seal and infused into Minato's body.

"What is this?"

Minato was astonished by the changes in his Chakra, 'It had stabilized instantly, and the quality of my Chakra had improved significantly. The feeling of being on the verge of disappearing is also gone. Is this the power of Nine-Tails' Chakra?'

He then turned to Naruto with an expectant gaze.

"Naruto, can you tell me about your life these years first?"
