After thinking for a long time, Minato couldn't find the right words to describe it.

Ultimately, the Nine Lamas himself provided the answer: "Repent and reform?"

"Uh...that's a pretty vivid description." Minato chuckled awkwardly.

The Nine-Tails was once tyrannical and evil, constantly hating humanity.

They want to get rid of anyone they see.

It sat there, like a harmless plush toy.

It can even roll its eyes!

what happened?

Minato Namikaze was completely dumbfounded.

If Kurama had looked like this back then, he might not have had to sacrifice himself.

"That...father?"

Naruto wasn't used to this title and wasn't even sure if the other person was really his father.

"Nine Lamas is not a bad guy."

He defended the Nine Lamas.

"Did you hear that, Fourth Hokage? Naruto has acknowledged me."

"Letting me out will be good for you, for Naruto, and for me."

"I will help him become the perfect Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts. At that time, who in the entire ninja world will be our enemy?"

After saying that, Kurama gave Naruto a wink.

Naruto understood and gave a thumbs up.

We are brothers, how can we possibly fight each other?

My brother is right.

“This…” Minato hesitated for a moment.

He couldn't tell whether the Nine-Tails was deliberately pretending or genuinely sincere.

However, his time was running out.

Ultimately, he decided to give the choice to Naruto.

"Naruto, this choice is yours to make."

"After all, this is your future, and you should be the one to control it."

Minato Namikaze still wore that gentle smile.

"Huh, why is your body getting paler and paler?" Naruto looked at Minato, whose body had become almost transparent.

"I'm leaving, Naruto. You'll have to walk your own path from now on."

"Why are you leaving? And... are you really... my father?" Naruto instinctively reached out his hand.

Minato stroked Naruto's head one last time, and before he could say anything more, his figure gradually disappeared, his chakra exhausted.

Naruto stared at the spot where Minato had disappeared, unable to come to his senses for a long time.

What an unfamiliar and distant title.

He hadn't had a chance to say more to him, nor had he expressed the longing he had felt for over a decade.

"Don't just stand there, Naruto, cheer up, I'll always be with you."

The Nine Lama's voice came from behind, full of encouragement.

"Yes!" Naruto nodded vigorously, casting aside his dejection.

He turned around, grabbed the sealing talisman, and tore it off forcefully!

"One gram gone! Nine Lama."

Chapter 31 Minato Namikaze: Surprise, Kurama!

In the classroom, the students were completely absorbed in the teacher's explanation.

Suddenly, a chilling aura swept through the air, making everyone's hearts skip a beat.

But this feeling was fleeting, so quick it was like an illusion. Most people didn't think much of it and returned to their studies.

Only Sasuke had a furrowed brow and a serious expression.

"This aura... it belongs to the Nine-Tails!"

He suddenly turned his head and looked at Naruto, who was fast asleep, but Naruto seemed completely unaware of this and continued to be immersed in his dreams.

Sasuke knew exactly what was going on. Having fought Naruto countless times, he was all too familiar with the taste of the Nine-Tails' chakra and would never mistake it for something else.

"What's going on? Why is the Nine-Tails' power suddenly fluctuating?"

This question lingered in Sasuke's mind, but he couldn't find an answer for the time being.

Judging by sight alone, Naruto's appearance was normal, and the tailed beast cloak did not appear, so it was clear that the Nine-Tails' chakra was not out of control.

"That's really strange."

Sasuke muttered to himself, turning his gaze away, but still carefully observing the surrounding movements.

Just then, Naruto suddenly opened his eyes and woke up.

"Naruto-kun, you're awake."

Hinata smiled gently when she saw Naruto wake up.

"Hehe, thanks Hinata! I had such a good sleep, I feel so refreshed now!"

Naruto grinned, brimming with energy.

With the seal broken, the Nine-Tails' chakra merged with him, and he was completely transformed.

At that very moment, the keen senses granted by Kurama made Naruto feel a burning gaze on his back.

He turned around in confusion, only to meet Sasuke's meaningful gaze.

Naruto returned his gaze with a fierce look, as if to say, "I've gotten stronger. Don't rush off after school; let's see who's the real deal on the training field!"

Sasuke, however, selectively ignored Naruto's challenge, his gaze wandering once again.

"Strange, Naruto seems a bit different."

With his keen intuition, Sasuke sensed that Naruto was like a lion poised to pounce, dangerous and full of unknowns.

Recalling the fleeting aura of the Nine-Tails just now, Sasuke couldn't help but wonder if Naruto had already been able to control the Nine-Tails' chakra.

But then he shook his head. This conjecture was not very realistic. Naruto was not reborn. It seemed too early for him to control the Nine-Tails with just willpower.

However, anything is possible. Since he was able to be reborn, it's hard to say that a similar miracle might happen to Naruto.

Sasuke's gaze unconsciously drifted to the last row of seats by the window, but it was empty; Shinomiya Yuuki was absent today.

Time never stops for anyone.

The bell rang on time, instantly shattering the dullness of the classroom and energizing the students as if they had been given a shot of adrenaline.

Cheers erupted one after another.

Just as things were getting lively, Iruka gently tapped the blackboard, drawing everyone's attention back to the present.

"Students, the graduation exam is the day after tomorrow. You don't need to attend classes for the next two days. Go home and study your ninjutsu carefully."

“Okay, Iruka-sensei.”

As the dismissal was announced, the students couldn't contain themselves and rushed out of the classroom, heading towards their freedom.

"Let's go too."

Sasuke and Sakura walked over to Naruto and Hinata, and the four of them walked side by side, leisurely leaving the classroom.

As soon as they stepped out of the school gate, someone greeted them; it was Hinata's father, Hiashi Hyuga, who had come to pick her up.

At the same time, Sakura's parents were waving to her.

"Sasuke, Naruto, we're leaving now."

After saying goodbye, the two girls went their separate ways to their families.

Sasuke looked around. All the other children had their parents picking them up, but he was the only exception.

He pursed his lips slightly, secretly vowing, "Danzo, you old bastard, you just wait."

The seeds of revenge were quietly sown, waiting only for the right moment.

"Let's go too. Let's skip training today and go back to get some rest," Sasuke suggested.

"No way! I just gained new power and I'm eager to test my skills against you!" Naruto said, his face full of anticipation.

"New power?" Sasuke was taken aback.

Oh no, what if he gets to play with the True Nine-Tails?

Things seem to be taking an unexpected turn...

Before Naruto could nod to Sasuke, a shout suddenly rang out from behind, shattering the tranquility.

Naruto exclaimed in surprise, "Huh?"

He turned his head in confusion, wondering who could be coming to his door at this hour?

Turning around, the familiar face I had seen not long ago came into view again.

The visitor was none other than Minato Namikaze.

Naruto instinctively exclaimed, "Dad... Dad?!"

Naruto's shout startled Minato and his group.

Minato turned his head to look at Obito and Kakashi beside him, his eyes full of doubt: "Naruto knows me?"

Obito's eyes were also filled with confusion. According to the current timeline, Naruto shouldn't know Minato's identity.
