"Are you saying that Naruto has initially awakened Nine-Tails's chakra?"
Hokage In the office.
After reporting the task details.
Kurenai Yuhi who left early.
Third Hokage and Hatake Kakashi are the only two people left in the office.
Third Hokage had the same eyebrows, looked at Kakashi with a surprised look, and asked in a slightly solemn tone.
For the current Konoha.
Naruto Awakening Nine-Tails Chakra is an extremely important thing.
Compared with this matter.
Killing two Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist and seizing two Ninja Blade is not that important. After all, according to the intelligence fed back by the spies arranged by Third Hokage in the border area, Kirigakure also just ended the turmoil in the past two years. The specific details are unknown to the outside world. Konoha has no intelligence source for the time being. Third Hokage The doves headed by did not want to further stimulate other ninja villages, so they naturally did not further investigate the intelligence of Kirigakure. However, the only thing that can be determined is the change of Kirigakure's regime. Under the current circumstances, it is impossible to launch a forceful attack. Therefore, although the negotiation with Kirigakure is relatively important at present, it is relatively easy.
The fact that Naruto reported by Kakashi seems to be able to use Nine-Tails Chakra is extremely important.
"Are you sure? Kakashi?"
Third Hokage took a deep breath from the pipe, slowly exhaled the smoke, looked at Kakashi in front of him with deep eyes, and asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, Third Hokage, the aura released at that moment should be Nine-Tails's chakra, but whether Naruto actively guided it himself, or whether it was released inadvertently due to crisis, it is still unclear."
Kakashi also responded with more cautious words.
Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
In Sannin, they all left the village due to their own reasons.
Sakumo Hatake committed suicide in his prime.
Fourth Hokage died of Nine-Tails Incident.
After the Uchiha Clan was destroyed, Uchiha Itachi, who was also the most powerful, left the village in the name of rebelling.
Nine-Tails owned by Konoha is the greatest deterrent to the major ninja villages and other forces in the current situation.
In this case, Third Hokage is naturally happy to see that Naruto can gradually control Nine-Tails, just like the previous Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, which is Naruto's mother - Kushina, can also freely use the power of Nine-Tails (in the final analysis, Kushina relies on his own Sealing Jutsu to forcefully squeeze out the power of Nine-Tails to use it instead of reaching a consensus with Nine-Tails. It can be seen from the subsequent plot that Naruto fully uses Nine-Tails Chakra for the first time in the original work, and also uses the "tug of war" mode to forcefully extract Nine-Tails Chakra for use.)
In this case, Konoha's external environment and current pressure can be alleviated a lot.
Of course, there is a premise here.
Naruto cannot be reversely controlled and eroded by Nine-Tails.
Otherwise, for Konoha, it will be a horrific disaster like the end of the world.
Whether Nine-Tails can be suppressed or even defeated in a head-on confrontation is the biggest measure of combat power in Shinobi World.
Both Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama can do this.
And Mito Uzumaki and Kushina Uzumaki can also suppress Nine-Tails with the strong vitality inherited from their families and the powerful Sealing Jutsu.
But after all, it is based on Sealing Jutsu rather than frontal hard power. Compared with the above two, the gap is still obvious.
And what about the current Shinobi World?
Who can really compete with Nine-Tails in his prime?
Nagato?
Forget it, Rinnegan is not his, that is, relying on the strong physical fitness of the Uzumaki Clan, using his strong vitality to forcefully use Rinnegan, and the price is that the body is constantly being eroded, and one day it will be swallowed up. In the original work, Nagato lets Six Paths of Pain invaded Konoha, and was it not completely suppressed by Nine-Tails? Although it was said that it had previously mobilized its power and forcibly used super Kamui to destroy the entire Konoha, resulting in a decrease in its own strength, but please remember that Nine-Tails at this time was only a 'half'!!
The other half can exist in the belly of that special "Death God" just like Minato.
Rinnegan can naturally suppress Nine-Tails and even control Nine-Tails.
But that is not the pupil technique possessed by Nagato.
It's given by others.
The essential difference is revealed.
And among the rest of the crowd, who can be said to have defeated Nine-Tails?
Uchiha Obito?
Uchiha Itachi?
With the advantages of Mangekyō Sharingan, there is no problem with a little control and suppression.
But to say defeat?
Stop joking.
That is the power that only the gods Asura of the Shinobi World and Shinobi World possess!
Third Hokage naturally doesn't understand these very well.
But as disciples of First Hokage and Second Hokage.
But Third Hokage understands the power of Nine-Tails very well.
Therefore, if Naruto can really control Nine-Tails Chakra independently.
That is definitely a blessing for Konoha!
After all, Third Hokage now fully believes that Naruto will definitely become the same 'Konoha hero' as his father in the future!
"Well, both are indeed possible. After all, Naruto is also at this age. It is not impossible to detect Nine-Tails in his body. Kakashi, you need to strengthen your observation. Nine-Tails is a double-edged sword for Konoha. You must pay attention."
Third Hokage smashed his pipe and said solemnly.
"Yes, Third Generation-sama."
Kakashi nodded and replied with the same solemn expression.
Immediately afterwards.
After seeing no further instructions from Third Hokage.
"Then, I'll be rude first!"
Kakashi bowed slightly, swayed, and left Hokage's office.
Third Hokage walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of the office and looked at the location of the house where Naruto lived. What came to mind were the faces of Fourth Hokage and Kushina Uzumaki.
At this moment.
A look of expectation and worry appeared in Third Hokage's pupils.
And on the other side.
Naruto, who returned home, would naturally not know that Third Hokage and Kakashi had such a conversation. Now Naruto has a lot of things to deal with, including thoroughly counting the harvest this time, getting rid of some supplies, and changing the next training plan. He has to find time to talk to Nine-Tails again, and that seal. Seal, Naruto also needs to consider whether to meet his 'biological father' in this life now, and further formulate the next plan. The most important thing is the route. If there is no big deviation in the plot, there will be less than two months until Chunin Ninja Exams arrives. During this time, it is best to perform more C-level tasks out of the village, visit as many places nearby as possible, and confirm the route.
It would naturally be best if you can receive missions from other countries.
After all, in Naruto's plan, not only Konoha, but also Land of Fire Naruto did not intend to stay any longer, because that choice was too dangerous.
And also consider Akatsuki.
It is also absolutely not possible near Land of Rain.
Naruto is very aware of his current strength.
That is unless the seal is completely broken and Nine-Tails can come out.
Otherwise.
Akatsuki li.
No need for Nagato to take action.
Uchiha Itachi and Kisame Hoshigaki are enough to successfully capture yourself. Be careful not to kill, but to capture!
Simply looking at it from the perspective of current strength ratings.
