Fourth Hokage! You had another trick up your sleeve!

After listening to Hagoromo's words, Nine-Tails silently watched Hagoromo.

After a long while, he finally lay down his mountain-like body, looked at Hagoromo standing outside the railing, and said mockingly.

"What if this kid knew I was the murderer of his parents, and you still let him get along well with the murderer?"

"What do you think will happen?"

Hagoromo chuckled upon hearing this. This Nine-Tails is truly wicked!

Do you think I wouldn't tell Naruto?

After Hagoromo finished speaking, she turned to look at the tunnel behind her.

There stood a small figure, his face full of confusion.

Hagoromo walked up to Naruto, squatted down, and reached out to touch Naruto's hair.

"Naruto, you are now more qualified than anyone else to know the truth."

"But can we trust our teachers?"

"Teacher, I believe you!"

Naruto, who had been looking puzzled, responded without hesitation after hearing what his teacher said.

Blanching

The Nine-Tails, who was originally waiting in the cage to watch the show of master and disciple fighting, broke down in defenses upon seeing Naruto's appearance!

"Hey! Kid! Didn't you hear what I just said? And you still believe in your master!"

"I'm not stupid. I only found out you existed last night."

"Teacher Hagoromo has been taking care of me all along. If I don't trust the teacher, am I supposed to trust you, this loser locked in a cage, or even the murderer?"

Naruto looked at the giant beast in the cage with a disgusted expression and responded.

Naruto's words and expression were like a sharp knife, piercing straight into Nine-Tails's heart.

"Ugh! You damn brat! You're the loser! Your whole family are losers!"

The Nine-Tails slammed into the railing frantically, wishing it could grab Naruto, that damned brat, and tear him to pieces.

Why am I locked up here, you brat? Don't you have any idea why I'm imprisoned here?!

Hearing Naruto's answer, Hagoromo laughed. He really is our sunny and cheerful big boy.

However, that mouth of hers is a bit infuriating.

No, it's the Air Tailed Beast.

Hagoromo glanced at the Nine-Tails, which was still roaring and pounding against the railing.

"Kurama, what do you think of what I just said?"

"Delusion! I will not have anything to do with this brat! I will tear him to pieces!"

The Nine-Tails Hagoromo roared directly at Yuu.

"Kurama, you clearly hate being manipulated, yet you use the same methods to provoke Naruto."

Hagoromo looked at Nine-Tails with annoyance and said slowly, "Or have you stooped so low that you need to rub salt in other people's wounds to feel relevant?"

"Hatred breeds hatred; are you sure you want to continue this cycle?"

These words stunned Nine-Tails, who already harbored doubts about Hagoromo.

He seemed to see the figure of the old man who had made him weep bitterly thousands of years ago.

The Sage of Six Paths...

(Hagoromo: That's right! I have the silhouettes of many people on me~)

"This is a one-time offer. Whatever you do, I won't interfere."

After Nine-Tails finished speaking, it curled up in the cage and lay on the ground, its eyes fixed on Hagoromo.

He wanted to see what this person would do to make this Jinchūriki break free from his hatred for the enemy who caused the deaths of his parents.

Yes, even if Naruto didn't say it, Nine-Tails clearly sensed the malice he Naruto towards it.

Seeing that Nine-Tails had stopped causing trouble, Hagoromo turned to Naruto:

"Naruto, your situation is complicated, so I think it would be better if you had a proper talk with the person involved?"

Naruto listened to Hagoromo's words, and although he was a little confused about who was the person involved, he still nodded.

"Okay, do you see that talisman?"

Hagoromo Yi pointed to the talisman with the character 'seal' written on it on the cage where the Nine-Tails was imprisoned.

"Tear it open, and you'll know the truth."

Don't worry, no one will bother you.

After Hagoromo, Yu Yi glanced at the Nine-Tails lying down.

Nine-Tails remained silent, simply watching the two outside the cage.

"Okay, teacher!"

After Naruto finished speaking, he prepared to step forward, ready to remove the talisman.

Hagoromo then pulled Naruto back, amidst Naruto's puzzled gaze.

Hagoromo slammed her hands on the ground, and the previously calm water surged and converged at Naruto's feet.

Upon seeing this, Naruto grinned and shouted, "Yoshi, cough!"

The accumulating water pushed Naruto directly to the cage door, and Naruto reached out to grab the talisman.

Nine-Tails narrowed its eyes slightly, but the next second its eyes widened.

Just as Naruto peeled off a small corner of the talisman, a figure dressed in a divine robe suddenly appeared beside Naruto.

"Are you already trying to seduce Naruto?! Nine-Tails! Behave yourself!"

A gentle voice, tinged with anger, appeared as the figure rebuked the Nine-Tails inside the cage.

"You've been holding back for Yong Dai Mei sleeve!"

The Nine-Tails, which had been lying down, suddenly stood up and roared at the golden-haired figure.

This man, whom he considered as insignificant as an insect, actually split himself in two and sealed both parts away.

Instead, the blond man who was holding Naruto's wrist didn't even glance at Nine-Tails, but instead looked at the excessively small figure in front of him.

"Um, Naruto..."

Minato Namikaze didn't understand why Naruto, at his age, would come here.

After all, when he set up this technique, he intended to use it when Naruto was at least a little older.

Minato Namikaze believed that his Sealing Jutsu were second to none in the Shinobi World.

"Huh? You are..."

Even though Naruto had never seen Minato Namikaze since he could remember, he felt a strange sense of familiarity with the person in front of him.

He then looked down at his teacher and shouted, "Teacher, who is this person? Why do I feel so comfortable with him?"

After Naruto pointed it out, Minato Namikaze was shocked to discover this.

There was actually a third person in the Sealing Space besides Naruto and Nine-Tails.

Hagoromo was speechless at Naruto's nonsensical behavior.

Seeing that Minato Namikaze's gaze was fixed on him, he waved and said, "Fourth Hokage, hello."

"Who are you?"

Minato Namikaze's tone was very wary, after all, he had managed to enter Naruto's Sealing Space.

This person, whoever he may be, should not be underestimated.

"This is, I am Naruto's teacher, Sawada Hagoromo."

Hagoromo slightly in greeting and introduced herself.

"Teacher?" Minato Namikaze was also a little confused. Logically speaking, Naruto's most likely teacher could only be Jiraiya.

After all, the key to Naruto's seal is with Jiraiya.

But now this young man actually claims to be Naruto's teacher?

"So, you were the one who instigated Naruto to break the seal on the Nine-Tails?"

At this point, Minato Namikaze's gaze towards Hagoromo gradually turned dangerous.
