Chapter 120 Nine-Tails: We're doomed!!!

"How about we pick an auspicious day and destroy Konoha?"

The thought had just crossed my mind.

The villagers' rejection, the always kind-smiling third-generation old man, the seemingly indifferent but actually caring Kakashi-sensei, the unreliable lecherous old man, and that newly discovered "father" named Minato Namikaze!
In an instant, countless faces and complex information flooded into his mind.

Naruto decided to sort through the intelligence one by one!
First and foremost, it's myself, and my own father who is the Fourth Hokage!

What about surnames? You'll understand in a second!
To avoid potential pursuit by enemies, he was given his mother's surname, Whirlpool.

They misled him for so long!
Naruto subconsciously rubbed his temples at the arrangement made by his "Fourth Hokage father"—he was a little confused.

Using one's own son as the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki? This is truly baffling!

In short, Naruto felt like punching someone!
If it weren't for the Nine-Tails inside him, Naruto wouldn't even dare to imagine how easy his childhood would have been.

As a result, his own father insisted on adding some "negative buffs" to him.

It's not necessary!

It will only increase the difficulty of his game!

But what deep feelings do they have for this "legendary biological father"?
That's really not true.

Having never even met him, in Naruto's mind he was probably just a glittering image of the Hokage Rock, a legendary hero from a textbook.

In addition, he himself was not that ignorant child, but a transmigrated soul with memories of his past life, so his ability to feel the "blood connection" was really limited.

If the two meet, there's a higher chance they'll become brothers.

Finally, there's this identity!

The fourth generation hero's biological son?!
Upon reflection, a strong sense of "mistake" instantly welled up inside me.

Why didn't you say so sooner? Why didn't you say so sooner?

If only this identity had been revealed sooner! He's a perfect "tragic hero's orphan" template—if handled properly, becoming Hokage would be a piece of cake.
The logic is incorrect.

This identity might fool ordinary villagers, but certain key figures will definitely know the truth!

Does Kakashi-sensei know? Does the Perverted Sage know? And the Third Hokage... well, Old Man Deng definitely knows!

The problem is—if you knew all along, why did you keep quiet about it?

To protect oneself?

No, man.

I'm invincible, who can threaten me?

So these people conspired to hide something huge! And they suffered so much from the deception!

Cough cough, is it really 'bitter'?

Although Naruto, being a transmigrator, actually enjoyed his childhood quite a bit, that doesn't stop him from "pretending to be wronged and complaining" now.

We need to cultivate the persona of a "tragic orphan"!
Children think about right and wrong; adults only think about interests!

Naruto's mind raced as he began to assess how much brand premium this "tragic orphan" persona could bring—no, what kind of benefits he could extract from Kakashi, Jiraiya, and the Third Hokage.
and many more!

There are two other crucial factors that cannot be overlooked: all the villagers of Konoha and Kurama in her belly!
First and foremost, there are these troublemakers from Konoha!

They discriminate against, ignore, and neglect themselves.

Naruto's previous attitude towards them was: "Understand but don't accept, and give them the cold shoulder."

Understanding: When they first met, the Nine-Tails' aura was indeed terrifying, and it probably caused immeasurable damage to Konoha. This was its original sin, and he did not deny it.

I cannot accept this: I am the one being discriminated against! Who can accept this?

Therefore, he chose to set aside the controversy.

but now.
No, I'm the biological son of the fourth generation of heroes!

Have you villagers lost your minds? Daring to discriminate against or even hate the son of a hero?

A complete troublemaker!
Oh? What?
You're saying they don't know that I, Naruto, am the son of a hero?
have no idea.
Is there no mistake?

Naruto suddenly felt a little regretful: Why did he choose the Forest of Death as the battlefield last time? What a great opportunity it would have been if it had been on Konoha's main stage!
First, let's unleash a Black Hole Spiral Shuriken to grab attention, then follow up with a Super Dust Release to wipe out the entire field!
Let the entire Hidden Leaf Village truly feel the gratitude Naruto owes them!
Unfortunately, I missed a chance for a brilliant start.

But that's okay,
Let's choose Konoha as our next team-building location!
The villagers' matter needs to wait; let's put it aside for now. The next target for reckoning is the Nine Lamas!

This guy!
They managed to keep the shocking secret that "Naruto is the son of the Fourth Hokage" completely under wraps!

It couldn't possibly not know!
Is this still my good friend?
We can deal with Kakashi, Jiraiya, and the Third Hokage later; it's not too late to settle scores then.

Now, Naruto is going to increase the intensity of the big fox!
Naruto lifted his eyelids and saw Sasuke and Sakura still chatting, actually talking about math.

Upon seeing this, he closed his eyes, his consciousness sank, and he instantly entered the training space.

He teleports into Kurama and Naruto's house (Lu Shilu). *Thud!*

The Nine-Tailed Claws were skillfully manipulating the handheld console to beat Hashirama.

"Nanaruto?"

The moment it sensed the familiar presence, Kurama almost instinctively, with a lazy warmth, called out its name, habitually wanting to continue its game.

However, the call abruptly stopped at the end.

wrong!

A tremendous, pure, and scrutinizing "attention" that made its hair stand on end was steadily falling upon it!
This attention wasn't malicious, but it made it more uncomfortable than if it were purely malicious!
Turning his head suspiciously, Kurama's golden vertical pupils met Naruto's gaze.

Naruto stood not far away, with his familiar smile on his face, but his deep blue eyes were as calm as the deep sea, without even the slightest ripple.

That look in his eyes...something's wrong! Something's really wrong!

Nine Lamas's mind immediately went into high alert!
It tossed aside the handheld console with lightning speed, slid off the sofa with a "whoosh," and cautiously approached Naruto: "Uh, Naruto? Are you... alright?"

His voice carried a caution that he would never normally show.

"Nine Lamas."

Naruto's gaze locked onto Kurama, his voice unfamiliar yet tinged with a faint chill, "Tell me, as your friend, is there some little 'surprise' you've been hiding in your heart that you've forgotten to tell me about?"

That title! That expression!
Nine-Tails instantly felt immense pressure.

Its name, Nine-Tails, is feared throughout the ninja world, but in front of Naruto, its presence is as insignificant as a speck of dust!
That's really not enough!

"Surprise?" It quickly rummaged through its nearly three hundred years of memories.

I just don't understand! Lately he's been super well-behaved, doing nothing but fighting Hashirama!

Is this ancestor trying to cause trouble again?
Naruto tilted his head slightly, his deep blue eyes fixed on it without blinking: "Friendly reminder. Keyword: Fourth Hokage."

Boom!
Nine Lama felt as if an invisible hand was squeezing his heart!
Oh no! We've been exposed! That whole thing!

Without any intimidation, under that abyss-like calm and devoid of any emotional fluctuation, Kurama instantly surrendered:
"Cough cough cough! Naruto! I, Kurama, want to confess! I want to be a good fox! Give me a chance to explain!"

"explain?"

Looking at the "weak, pitiful and helpless" legendary tailed beast in front of him, a faint smile flashed deep in Naruto's eyes. "Come on, let's sign this agreement first."

Kurama looked at the agreement that Naruto had suddenly taken out.

Memorandum Regarding the Incident Where Kurama Concealed Naruto's Identity as the Fourth Hokage, Leading to His Failure to Be Selected as the Fifth Hokage

As for the content, once it's signed, Nine-Tailed Fox will become a complete puppet!
But looking into Naruto's cold eyes, Kurama felt he had no choice!
"very good!"

After Kurama signed the agreement, Naruto finally smiled.

Naruto smiled, and Kurama's tense nerves dared to relax a little.

But Naruto's next words plunged him into an icy abyss!

"But now! Right now! Immediately! Come out and practice with me!"

Nine-Lama instantly bristled, shaking his fox head like a rattle drum.

Just kidding! Want to "spar" with this ancestor?
It was so badly punished that it began to doubt its very existence as a fox!
The experience was so "profound" that it created a conditioned reflex of fear.

Even though we're really close, getting beaten up really hurts!
"Ok?"

Naruto uttered only a slight question before his calm, unwavering eyes fell upon Kurama once more, instantly filling the void with immense pressure!
"Okay, okay, let's practice! Let's practice now! It'll be good to get some exercise!"

Nine Lama shuddered, immediately put on a forced smile, and moved toward the training ground gate as if heading to his execution.

The moment it stepped out of the threshold, its body instantly swelled back to its true form, the Nine-Tails, which was as big as a small mountain. It roared to the sky, unleashing a ferocious burst of chakra that shook the space!

It tried to dispel its inner fear with its imposing presence.

I am Kurama! The leader of the Tailed Beasts!

Practice on me? Don't I have any dignity?

However, as it raised its head, preparing to assume a battle stance and search for Naruto's figure...
The world has vanished!

As far as the eye could see, the sky was completely obscured.

With its head held high, all it could see was an endless, bluish-green "sky curtain".

Moving the gaze downwards, a massive pillar, so thick it defied expectations, connected to the earth, its surface textured like mountain ravines.

That's Naruto's leg?!
It strained with all its might, its fox eyes shrinking to their limit, just barely managing to catch a glimpse of the giant shadow's outline below the knees; the upper part had already blended into the depths of the clouds and was no longer visible.

And its nine tails were not even as big as one of Naruto's toes!
It's all over!!!
