The pitch-black and dim Sewer, the massive Nine Tails stared down at the two people below, who were like ants.

Dense Tailed Beast Chakra leaked out along the cage.

"See that?" Danzo asked.

"Old man, is this why people call me a monster?" Naruto stared blankly at the Nine Tails inside the cage for a long time before asking, somewhat frightened.

"This guy is called Nine Tails."

Danzo nodded, briefly introducing the origin of the big fox in front of him to Naruto.

"So I'm really not a monster?" After listening to Danzo's explanation, Naruto looked at Danzo blankly and asked.

"No."

Danzo shook his head.

"Then why did you seal this monster inside me? Do you know how I've spent these past few years? Do you know!" Naruto's emotions obviously became a little agitated, and he questioned.

"Boy, watch your mouth."

Being called a monster, the Nine Tails was obviously very unhappy, its scarlet beast eyes staring intently at Naruto, and Naruto seemed to be affected by the emotional fluctuations, with crimson Tailed Beast Chakra constantly surging onto his body.

"Calm down."

Danzo said calmly as he looked at Naruto, then glanced disdainfully at the Nine Tails, who was still grinning at him, "Naruto is your container, you have no right to be arrogant."

As soon as he finished speaking, Danzo clumsily formed the Sealing Jutsu Formula from his memory, directly pressing a palm on the seal on Naruto's stomach.

The huge cage was separated by a wall that suddenly rose.

The Nine Tails Chakra that permeated Naruto's body quickly retreated into the cage, and the Nine Tails' vision was also cut off.

Feeling his emotions stabilize, Naruto looked at his body with some lingering fear, his emotions just now were inexplicably out of control.

Hatred and anger intertwined and surged upwards.

Looking at the frightened Naruto, Danzo reached out to rub his hair, but Naruto slapped his hand away.

"Old man! Why did you lock this monster inside my body!"

"These past few years, I've been bullied and ostracized by the villagers because this monster is inside my body!"

"Why do I have to become this person?"

Naruto was obviously still resentful about this question.

Faced with Naruto's questioning, Danzo's mood was also somewhat complicated.

Originally, although he was a Jinchuriki, he could still enjoy a life that other Jinchuriki could not enjoy to some extent because of his status as the son of a hero.

But because of the original body's actions, Naruto's identity was concealed, and he was shaped into a demon fox image under the operation.

However, he would definitely not take the blame for this, although it was the sin committed by the original body, Danzo would definitely not admit it.

With a thought in his mind, Danzo's face already had a clear change in expression.

His eyes were complicated, his face was full of sorrow, and looking at Naruto's angry eyes, Danzo explained with heartache: "Naruto, in fact, all of this is to protect you!"

Looking at his somewhat puzzled gaze, Danzo continued to explain, "Actually, your identity and origins are not simple. Whether it's your father or your mother, they were both very great ninjas."

"They, as a couple, dedicated far too much to this Konoha."

"Father? Mother?" Naruto's eyes widened. In his childhood, the words 'father' and 'mother' often surfaced, but they had never actually appeared.

"Then why?"

He was even more puzzled. Since his parents had contributed so much to the village, why did they make him the container for this monster?

Danzo explained with a complex expression, "Your parents were both great ninjas of Konoha, but similarly, in the eyes of other ninja villages, they were thorns in their sides, splinters in their flesh."

"But they have already passed away to protect Konoha."

"To protect your existence, we can only conceal your identity. All of this is to protect you."

His mind was racing, combining the identity of the Fourth Hokage while correcting the actions of the original body.

He corrected his selfish desire to cultivate Naruto into a war machine, changing it to everything being for Naruto's protection.

Naruto seemed to understand, but because he knew about his parents, he put this matter at the forefront of his mind and asked, "Who are my parents? And what does all this have to do with this monster?"

Danzo had already noticed the situation outside. It seemed that due to the outbreak of the Nine Tails Chakra, the commotion here had attracted the attention of that fellow Sarutobi.

Originally, he had planned to carefully explain to Naruto how he and his parents had put in the effort to protect him, but now he could only make it brief.

"I can't tell you who your parents are."

"Why?" Naruto was puzzled.

"Before you have the ability to protect yourself, before you have the strength to set foot in this Shinobi World, I will not tell you your parents' names," Danzo replied.

"All of this was exchanged for your parents' lives. You must cherish it and not expose your existence. At least for now, you cannot reveal your identity."

"If spies from enemy villages know your identity, all that awaits you is endless assassination."

Naruto nodded, unexpectedly calm.

Danzo was somewhat surprised by his reaction. Naruto had not yet entered the Ninja School, but the state and thinking he displayed were far higher than what he had seen in the anime.

Compared to the other children in the village, the emotions and state he displayed were already amazing enough.

Could it be that because he had been called a failure ever since he entered the Ninja School, he had become more and more unconfident and stupid?

Thinking about it, as the Fourth Hokage's son, Naruto's mastery of certain ninjutsu was unexpectedly rapid. The talent he displayed was far from that of a failure.

Thinking in his heart, Danzo explained, "As for what you see, this monster inside your body is actually one of the legacies your parents left you."

"I have already explained the existence of the Tailed Beasts. With a Tailed Beast, whether it's the amount of chakra or the body's self-recovery ability, you will be several times stronger than ordinary people."

"And if you can fully master the power that the Nine Tails brings you, you will have the strength to set foot in the Shinobi World."

"This monster is the legacy my parents left me?" Naruto looked at the cage separated by the wall, his expression somewhat dazed.

If I master the power of this monster, I will be able to know my father and mother's names.

Power.

I want to have great power.

His heart now only had this one thought.

"Wake up!"

Danzo abruptly reached out and slapped him on the head, the last trace of Tailed Beast Chakra remaining on his body dissipated.

The dazed Naruto woke up from that state of pursuing power, looking at Danzo with some confusion, "I just now?"

"Although yearning to possess power is not a bad thing, Naruto, power that cannot be controlled is ultimately not yours. Only power that can be used freely belongs to you."

Danzo kindly warned Naruto not to trust the Nine Tails too much and to remain vigilant against the Nine Tails.
