Naruto Uzumaki is not interested in treasures.

The only thing that interested the child was his own background and why everyone in the village disliked him; these were the answers he desperately wanted to know.

Of course.

Mizuki will not reject a child's curiosity.

Even his own curiosity was exploited by Mizuki.

Late at night.

Konoha Village.

The Mask Hall of the Uzumaki Clan.

The Mask Hall has become somewhat dilapidated.

Since Konoha Naruto Uzumaki is the only orphan left in Konoha, and no one has ever cleaned up the place, the dark environment here is somewhat frightening.

Even though Naruto Uzumaki had just graduated from the Ninja School, he was still a child at heart and inevitably a little timid in this environment. It was only his determination to find out the truth that made him muster the courage to linger here.

When they arrived at the Uzumaki Clan's Mask Hall, Mizuki wanted to reveal all the answers to Naruto Uzumaki, as it was part of their plan.

"Twelve years ago."

"Nine Tails Riot has broken out in the village."

"A Nine-Tailed Demon Fox killed many people that night. Many people's relatives died that night. People have always hated the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox that killed their relatives, and they have always feared that the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox would cause trouble again..."

"I know, I know..."

Naruto Uzumaki quickly indicated that he knew about this.

After all, many people still vividly remember the tragedy that occurred twelve years ago. Even if he was slow to realize it, he would know about the brutal and bloody Nine Tails Riot...

But...

What does this have to do with him?

"You didn't think of that..."

Mizuki forced a smile, wanting to see Naruto Uzumaki's expression when he learned the truth. "So you're that Nine-Tailed Demon Fox that everyone hates?"

"..."

Naruto Uzumaki suddenly stopped in his tracks!

The blond boy's pupils suddenly became unfocused, and his mind seemed to short-circuit for a moment, unable to think. All he could hear was Mizuki's question.

"I..."

Naruto Uzumaki's body stiffened slightly.

"That's why everyone in the village dislikes you."

Mizuki continued to provoke Naruto Uzumaki without any restraint, a smile even creeping onto his face, "Many people in the village wish you were dead..."

"Just like your teacher Iruka Umino..."

"Iruka Umino's parents also died one night..."

Mizuki continued to provoke Naruto Uzumaki with a fierce look on his face, "Although that guy usually seems nice to you and acts like he accepts you, he'd love for you, his student, to die as soon as possible!"

"No..."

"That's not how it works..."

Naruto Uzumaki leaned against a tree, somewhat frightened and uneasy.

He recalled the scenes of the villagers cursing him, and with a hint of fear, he thought of his teacher, Iruka Umino, who had once been very kind to him.

That teacher...

Do you really wish he were dead?

That was a teacher who had shown him kindness earlier.

Even earlier than his friends Shikamaru Nara and Choji Akimichi, Shirou Emiya, and Jiraiya, that teacher had been taking care of him all along.

Although...

Iruka Sensei is not as good as Jiraiya, nor as good as Shirou Emiya ...

But...

In Naruto Uzumaki's heart, Iruka Umino always held a very high position. Before he met Shirou Emiya and Jiraiya, he could only rely on Iruka Sensei.

That teacher...

Did he actually hate him all along?

"Don't be afraid."

Mizuki slowly squatted down in front of Naruto Uzumaki, smiling as he looked at the blond kid whose face was filled with fear and shock at the truth. He continued with a smile, "Actually, this wasn't your fault. You were just born that night too..."

"Nine-Tailed Demon Fox..."

"It wasn't you in the beginning..."

"Someone simply sealed the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox inside your body."

"Is... that's how it is?"

Naruto Uzumaki felt as if he had grasped a straw in his heart. He quickly wiped away his tears and clenched his fists!

Yes!

This is not his fault!

It's not his fault that he's Nine-Tailed Demon Fox!

At that time, he had just been born. Someone didn't care what his life would be like or how difficult it would be, and forcibly stuffed the Nine-Tails into his body!

This is not his fault!

This is all that person's fault!

"Who did it? Who did it?!"

Naruto Uzumaki pressed for more information.

"Your father."

Mizuki's answer once again froze Naruto Uzumaki's expression.

"..."

Naruto Uzumaki's face was completely expressionless, turning deathly pale, as if what he had just grasped was not a lifeline...

Instead...

A curse urging him to die.

How could his own father seal the Nine-Tails inside his own son?

Father...

Shouldn't they all be great?

Naruto Uzumaki had met his classmates' fathers more than once. The fathers were either kind or strict, but their eyes were full of love for their children!

His father...

How could they do that!

How could anyone let their son become Nine-Tailed Demon Fox!

"Actually, you have a great father, Naruto."

Mizuki's smile widened, seemingly unaware that the child was already angry with his father, and he even praised the child's father, "Your father's name is Minato Namikaze, he is the Fourth Hokage of the village..."

"!!!"

Naruto Uzumaki was struck dumb.

This is...

An identity he never imagined!

"How is that possible..."

Naruto Uzumaki stared wide-eyed in disbelief. He had never imagined that he was the son of the Fourth Hokage, because he only knew that the Fourth Hokage was a hero of the village.

That hero...

How could he possibly be his father!

How could a hero like that possibly allow his son to become the Nine-Tails!

"The Fourth Hokage is a hero of the village."

Mizuki opened his palm, still praising the other person. "Back then, in order to stop the Nine-Tails from harming the village, he sealed the Nine-Tails, which was causing trouble in the village, inside his newborn son..."

"..."

Naruto Uzumaki's fingers finally dug into his flesh.

Just as Mizuki was about to say something, a terrifying Chakra suddenly erupted from Naruto Uzumaki's body, and the child roared towards the sky!

"Aaaaaaahhhhh..."

The child could no longer tolerate Mizuki's arguments!

Or rather...

The child could no longer bear the truth!

Throughout his twelve years of life, Naruto Uzumaki experienced countless instances of discrimination, insults, and beatings. Wherever he went, he was met with strange treatment, and everyone wished him dead!

Actually...

This kind of life...

The little one is slowly getting used to it...

They are even trying to make changes.

However, at this moment someone told him that the reason his life was so difficult was all because of his heroic father!

"This... this..."

Mizuki watched Chakra Naruto Uzumaki with some nervousness, glancing around in alarm. He quickly called out to reassure him, "Naruto, Naruto, calm down, calm down..."

This is truly an unexpected situation!

Mizuki was even more surprised by the Chakra that Naruto Uzumaki unleashed, because he could see the scarlet Chakra Cloak, and even more tails emerging from behind!

This brat's Chakra...

It seems like I have no way of handling this!

No...

Not only can I not handle it!

It's possible that the entire Konoha won't be able to be dealt with!

Mizuki was somewhat alarmed as he saw more and more red Chakra emanating from Naruto Uzumaki's body. He knew this meant the leakage of the Nine-Tails Chakra!

The Nine Tails Riot...

Will there be another Nine Tails Riot?

Within the Sealing Space.

This is where the Tailed Beast reside within the Jinchuriki's body.

Naruto Uzumaki's Chakra touched this place for the first time. His short body staggered through the water prison of the Sealing Space, step by step until he reached a fenced prison door. When he looked up, he saw a terrifyingly large fox demon.

Nine-Tails...

This is the Nine-Tails ...

The Nine-Tails, who brought his life to such a state...

It was also the Nine-Tails that his own father had sealed inside him in the name of a hero...

"The Nine-Tails...?"

Naruto Uzumaki looked up and stared into the Nine-Tails' crimson eyes.

This is...

Their first contact.

Although Nine-Tails has been able to observe Naruto Uzumaki's life for the past twelve years, this is the first time it has seen this brat in the Sealing Space!

The wonderful thing is...

This is exactly the state that Nine-Tails) wants to see!

A lost and confused brat, utterly disillusioned with life—this was simply too delightful for the Nine-Tails, who could easily control him!

Nine-Tails's lips curled into a ferocious grin as it stared at Naruto Uzumaki, Naruto Uzumaki seemed to have lost all willpower.

This...

What a fantastic opportunity!

This was the first time Nine-Tails had ever felt such an astonishing darkness emanating from Naruto Uzumaki. It never expected that its chance to escape would come so easily!

Nine-Tails...

I'm actually a little tempted.

This absent-minded little devil is most likely to surrender his body to it!

The only pity is...

The timing of this brat's appearance was terrible!

Shirou Emiya is still in Konoha!

If only this brat could reveal this state after Shirou Emiya leaves Konoha, then it could take over the brat's body and wreak havoc in Konoha!

What a pity!

Shirou Emiya is still around!

That guy definitely won't tolerate it causing a ruckus here, right?

Even Shirou Emiya stayed with the little brat as he grew up, trying to soothe its emotions and prevent it from causing further trouble, thus providing it with a period of peace and quiet...

But...

This is such a rare opportunity!

Anyway...

Even if problems arise...

Even Shirou Emiya can't blame himself!

I have suffered so much injustice in Konoha over the years. The people of Konoha were wrong first, not the other way around!

That guy...

They are so easy to deceive...

I can just explain it to myself and everything will be fine!

The Nine-Tails- Tails finally grinned, slowly extending its claws from the fence, and asked a question with a ferocious expression.

"Little brat..."

"Do you want to destroy the world?"

"Is it possible?"

Naruto Uzumaki muttered to himself, simply asking whether Nine-Tails could actually do it, because he didn't know what else he could do while he was alive.

Destroy the world?

Perhaps we could do that?

"Certainly..."

The Nine-Tails' mouth stretched wide, its voice seemingly bewitching Naruto Uzumaki's mind, and its Chakra surged forth like a tidal wave. "If you give me your body, we can destroy everything..."

"How do I do it..."

Naruto Uzumaki couldn't quite understand it.

"It's very simple."

Nine-Tails narrowed its eyes, its scarlet gaze falling on a talisman on the cell door. "It would be even better if you could tear off the seal on this..."

Mask Hall.

Mizuki's body was constantly retreating.

The Chunin instructor was so terrified he wet himself. He saw four tails growing out of Naruto Uzumaki's back, and he seemed to have lost his mind...

No...

What should we do?!

The plan seems to have encountered a slight unexpected situation...

I haven't obtained that treasure from Naruto Uzumaki yet!

Ahhh...

Where is that person?!

What should I do now?

Mizuki stared at Naruto Uzumaki with a look of terror on his face, his body trembling as he tried to run away, but he saw Naruto Uzumaki watching him and didn't dare to make any move!

Own...

Am I going to die here?

In the forest.

Yakushi Kabuto was toying with a Death God Mask in his hand.

In fact, Yakushi Kabuto had already obtained this treasure when the plan began, and he naturally couldn't allow this mask, which could break the Dead Demon Consuming Seal, to go wrong.

From the very beginning...

Mizuki has only one use.

That is to activate the Nine-Tails within Naruto Uzumaki.

"It's almost time..."

Yakushi Kabuto slightly and glanced at Iruka Umino.

"..."

Just then, Iruka Umino, who was lying on the ground, slowly woke up from his slumber. His gaze fell on Yakushi Kabuto's back and the direction Yakushi Kabuto was looking in.

That direction...

A terrifying red Chakra is rising into the sky!

"Is that... the Nine-Tails?"

At this moment, Iruka Umino panicked. He recalled the fear of being dominated by the Nine Tails Riot in the past, which made him look at the mysterious person in front of him with some apprehension!

"What exactly do you want to do?!"

"Haven't you already seen it?"

Yakushi Kabuto seemed to be speaking intentionally or unintentionally, "We've already obtained the Uzumaki Clan's treasure. Let's consider everything that's happening now as a return gift from Lord Orochimaru to his homeland..."

"Nine Tails Riot Fox..."

"I believe Konoha will be able to handle this."

Yakushi Kabuto looked up at the Death God Mask in his hand and said gently, "Next time we come, given Lord Orochimaru's magnanimity, he won't just give our hometown a small, appetizer-like gift like the Nine Tails Riot..."
