Xiao Tian patted Naruto Uzumaki on the shoulder and chuckled, " Pervy Sage, I was worried that your small frame wouldn't be able to handle it, and that your temperament wasn't up to par. But now, thanks to training with me in the Eight Gates Released Formation for a while, you've at least reached the Fourth Gate. And I have complete confidence in your temperament."
"Besides, isn't this body yours? Isn't your body your territory? The Nine-Tails is sealed inside you, so it's your territory, it's your power!"
Naruto was completely stunned by what he was being said.
"But, the Pervy Sage said..."
"Stop!" Xiao Tian scoffed, " Naruto-kun, have you ever thought about what will happen when the seal inside you is broken and the Nine-Tails escapes? The first thing it'll do is eat you."
"Then we absolutely cannot use Xiao Tian's Chakra."
Xiao Tian rolled his eyes and said, " Naruto, can't you use your brain for a second? Tailed Beast can be summoned beasts too! I know you're resistant to the Nine-Tails because countless people in the village have abandoned you, discriminated against you, and even some adults hate you because it's the culprit that caused the deaths of countless people in the village, including the Fourth Hokage. Have you ever thought about why it was sealed inside you?"
"Why?" Naruto had been pondering this question. All along, he had forced himself to be happy and liked to do unconventional things just to attract attention.
Xiao Tian, sensing no other spying through the system's counter-surveillance mechanisms, grew serious and stared at Human Path, asking, "Do you want to know who your parents are?"
Naruto's heart skipped a beat.
"Yes!" Naruto's eyes burned with fervor, and his body trembled slightly.
" Sasuke, keep watch. This is top secret. I gathered this information privately through special channels; it's a taboo in Konoha."
"Okay." Sasuke looked around warily, his large ears perking up at the same time.
Boom!
In the distance, Shukaku excitedly stood up.
"You stinky fox! Come on! Let's see who's the strongest Tailed Beast!"
Xiao Tian swallowed the words he was about to say, gripped the Adamantine Staff, and used the Kamui Dimension as a springboard to appear above the head of One-Tail Shukaku.
"Behave yourself, kid! Keep being a slime!"
The Adamantine Staff as light as a feather in Xiao Tian's hands, yet it unleashed immense power.
A few minutes later, Xiao Tian returned to Naruto. Ruyi Adamantine Staff Little Purple, continued to wait for Shukaku to condense its Chakra form so that it could be dispersed with a single blow.
Shukaku is suffering inside!
" Naruto, this secret is extremely important! Your father is a hero of Konoha! He is the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze!"
Naruto stared in disbelief, dumbfounded.
Sasuke was completely dumbfounded, his face practically screaming, "Are you kidding me?"
" Uchiha Sasuke, stop looking at me like that, I'm telling the truth!" Xiao Tian glared at Sasuke.
" Xiao Tian, since my father is the Fourth Hokage, then I am the child of the greatest hero of Konoha, right? But why..." Naruto Uzumaki's small body trembled, his eyes filled with surprise, joy, anger, and confusion, his heart overflowing with mixed feelings.
Xiao Tian patted Naruto on the shoulder and said with a smirk, "Your father was a great Hokage, but in a big forest, there are all sorts of birds. Many people don't know that you are that Hokage's child; they only know that you have that monster inside you that almost Destruction the village. And those who know the secret—some are busy embezzling the property left by your parents, which is absolutely wicked; others simply protect you and let you grow up on your own; and some, over time, also come to believe that you are a monster, a threat to the village. That's the way of the world; that's human nature."
"So, the Nine-Tails was sealed inside you by your father and mother at the cost of their lives; it was a power-up tailor-made for you! It's the most precious treasure they left you!"
