All four Hokage turned their attention to Naruto.
The one who had once known everything, and the ones who now knew nothing!
Hiruzen Sarutobi paled in shock. "N-Naruto...!? W-what happened to your eyes? And why are you mixed up with Orochimaru?!"
Past and future met as everything began anew.
Grandpa Hiruzen...
Naruto missed his old friend, but deliberately said, "Third Hokage, as you can see, this is reality..."
Hiruzen was heartbroken. "Alas, you didn't grow up the way everyone hoped. In the end, the Nine-Tails' hatred led you astray!"
Naruto was in no hurry to explain. Instead, he enjoyed watching the four men's reactions, especially the Second Hokage's!
Sure enough, the Second Hokage could not stand it. "Those eyes aren't ordinary three tomoe. It seems the Uchiha have produced another warmongering bastard like Madara. Your name is Naruto? Naruto Uchiha, then? You also appear to be the Nine-Tails' Jinchūriki."
"Um..." Minato tried to explain, but Tobirama cut him off. "Keep quiet, Fourth. It's not your turn to speak!"
Tobirama turned to Hiruzen. "Monkey! Why is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in the Uchiha Clan? What were you doing as Hokage?!"
Hiruzen also tried to explain. "Actually, Naruto..."
Tobirama interrupted again. "Never mind. It's obvious enough. The Uzumaki Clan is all but extinct, and you've always been softhearted. You must have taken a lenient approach toward the Uchiha and given them the Nine-Tails as a gesture of goodwill..."
"But that's strange. How could the Uchiha's physical energy allow one of them to withstand nine-tails chakra as a Jinchūriki?"
Hashirama spoke up to set the record straight. "Tobirama, you're jumping to conclusions. That boy isn't from the Uchiha Clan!"
Tobirama said, "What did you say, Brother?"
Hashirama said, "Use your sensory abilities and check properly. The chakra in his abdomen spins like a turbine.
