Chapter 839: It’s Better to Open Up Than To Block
In the medical room, Naruto, lying on the bed, listened blankly to the conversation between Kanpū and the ‘ghost’, his little face filled with question marks.
“Kanpū-sensei, what do you mean that I'm possessed by a fox?”
As Naruto's fear gradually dissipated, curiosity arose, and he couldn't help but ask, “Is there a fox inside me?”
“You are a fox, your whole family is a fox!” The hoarse, low-pitched voice, filled with evil intent, suddenly raised, like thunder in Naruto's ears.
“Hiss~~” Naruto subconsciously covered his ears with both hands, “It’s so fierce.”
“Foxes have this character, but once they're tamed, they're gentle.” Kanpū lamented, “Unfortunately, this one is male.”
“...”
At that time, Kurama felt a deep malice emanating from Kanpū’s body. Even though he was covered in orange hair, at this moment, he couldn't help but feel goosebumps.
“Kanpū-sensei, the fox in my body...”
Naruto got the affirmative answer from Kanpū’s words, and asked with some anxiety, “Is this fox already dead, and then its ghost lives in my body?”
“You are a ghost, your whole family are ghosts!!” Kurama snarled and roared, fierce and untamed.
Naruto continued to cover his ears, but to no avail.
“Naruto, anything related to this fox is the village’s secret. If you want to know, you have to ask your father.” Kanpū said.
“No!” Naruto's buttocks tightened, and he quickly shook his head.
He has just been taught a lesson, so he didn't dare to go looking for trouble again.
“Kanpū-sensei, I don't want to know anything about this fox, I swear!” Naruto said anxiously.
“Are you afraid of being beaten? Don’t worry, your father can't really beat you to death! I guarantee it!” Kanpū solemnly vowed.
“Kanpū-sensei, you saying that makes me even more worried.” Naruto looked at him pitifully.
He had learned his lesson, having been tricked by Kanpū so many times, Naruto had learned to be smart.
Kanpū didn't care, and just picked him up.
“No, put me down, I don't want to!” Naruto struggled desperately, but he felt a sudden pain after moving his butt twice.
Medical Ninjutsu is not used on his injury, so when the wound was touched, it hurt, a kind of piercing pain!
“Hiss, hiss...” Naruto sucked in a cold breath, and as his whole body twitching, he became honest instantly.
“Your injury hasn't healed yet, you can't do intense exercise, got it?” Kanpū said earnestly.
Naruto was in too much pain to speak, but Kurama, who is in his body, took the opportunity to nag: “Naruto, see, whether it's your father or your teacher, they don't respect your wishes, they all treat you like a three-year-old child, calling you here and sending you there, hitting and scolding at will, is this the kind of life you want?”
“No.” Naruto sobbed as he replied.
“That's right, no one wants to be oppressed, so accept me. Only by accepting me, can you change your life, change your future!” Kurama roared passionately.
“Well...” Naruto rolled his eyes and whispered sneakily, “I accept you!”
‘Very good!!’
Kurama is overjoyed. At this time, he wanted to use the Chakra that he had accumulated over the years and cooperate with Naruto’s will to tear a crack in the seal, and then escape bit by bit before they even saw Minato.
But before Kurama could use any force, he found that there was a discrepancy between what was said and done?
It is Kanpū.
Kanpū puts his right hand on Naruto’s shoulder, and his spiritual followed the Chakra into this gloomy seal world.
“Kanpū?” Minato turned his head slightly, “Why did you come in?”
“Hokage-sama, I have an immature suggestion regarding Kyubi and Naruto. “Kanpū said.
Minato was taken aback and slowly withdrew his hand, then asked: “What is it?”
Kanpū said earnestly: “It’s better to open up than to block.”
‘It’s better to open up than to block?’
Minato’s mind spun and he immediately understands what Kanpū meant: “You want Naruto and Kyubi to be friends?”
Kanpū nodded: “Although under Hokage-sama’s Fuinjutsu, Naruto can always call out Kyubi’s Chakra, he can't access Kyubi’s full power! But if they can become friends...”
Just like the Biju’s strongest technique, the Bijudama. If Naruto doesn't gain Kurama’s approval, relying solely on Minato’s Fuinjutsu to extract Kurama’s power will not be enough. But if they can become friends, then whatever Naruto wants to do will be as simple as saying a word.
Hearing Kanpū’s words, Minato sink into contemplation. In fact, he had a similar idea a long time ago, but Naruto was still young at that time, and he was worried that his son would be misled by Kurama, so he had never seriously considered it. But now, Naruto's personality had been shaped, Minato also felt that it might be time to let him interact with Kurama.
At the same time, Kurama was also pondering.
‘Be friends with that little brat? Are you kidding me? How can I be friends with a human?’
‘But if I refuse, Namikaze Minato will definitely block the seal completely. It will be much more difficult for me to break free in the future!’
‘Why not pretend to be polite first?’
Kurama's vertical pupils turned, and he came up with a sly plan.
At this moment, Minato also made a decision and said: “Since that's the case, let's give it a try.”
‘At any rate, there are still me, Kushina, Kanpū and Shisui here. With such a line-up, Kyubi wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.’
When Kurama heard this, he subconsciously wanted to argue with Minato, but he stopped himself when he realized his situation. He quickly shut his mouth, and then nonchalantly waved his nine tails, wearing an expression of ‘I didn't hear or see anything just now, please continue’.
Minato and Kanpū looked at each other and smiled, then simultaneously disappeared from the seal world.
......
“Dad? Kanpū-sensei?”
Naruto looked at Minato and Kanpū, who were suddenly motionless, and was a little panicked.
But before he could think more about it, Kanpū and Minato had already opened their eyes again.
“Dad...”
Naruto carefully observed Minato’s expression. Seeing that he didn't seem angry, he asked cautiously, “Dad, is the fox in my body a ghost? Why is it inside me?”
“He is not a ghost, but a life form materialized by chakra called Kurama, the Kyubi. He was sealed in your body the day you were born.”
Minato then said, “That's all I can tell you for now, Naruto. Kurama will always be with you in the future, so you should take good care of him. Understand?”
Naruto nodded as if he understood, but he seemed to have more doubts. However, when he wanted to ask, he didn't know what to say for a while, so he turned to look at Kanpū.
Kanpū looked up at the ceiling.
‘It’s getting late, it’s time to go home for dinner.’
