Chapter 170: Yang Kurama
"Yo Naruto!"
Izuna pats Naruto''s shoulder as he appears in front of the academy.
"Who who is there?" Naruto jumps back as Izuna suddenly appears in front of him.
"Oh! it is Izuna Nii-san. Dattebyo."
Naruto scratches his head.
"Naruto Come with me. We will meet with Tsunade."
"Yeah Tsunade baa-san I want to meet with her. I haven''t seen her in a while." Naruto jumps excitedly.
"Ok then let''s go. I will train you in a new jutsu while we are at it."
"New Jutsu. Dattebyo!"
Izuna grabs Naruto and flickers towards his house.
"Get your things ready. We will depart shortly."
Naruto enters his house and prepares his luggage. Izuna stares at the house as he watches the lonely figure of Naruto.
"Just wait a little longer Naruto. You will meet your parents soon."
After waiting for around fifteen minutes,
Naruto walks out of the house with a small bag tied around his back.
Izuna shakes his head and gives a scroll to Naruto.
"Naruto use this instead. Try to put your stuff in this storage scroll."
"But but Nii-san I have never done it before." Naruto takes the scroll and looks at it curiously.
"Hmm ok then watch me perform the hand signs."
Izuna makes some hand signs.
"Enclosing technique"
He seals the luggage into the scroll.
"Ok try it now."
"Yes Nii-san."
Naruto takes the scroll and slowly makes the hand signs.
''Hmm Naruto is technically the prince of the Uzumaki n. So he must have a high affinity for Fuinjutsu but no one taught him any sealing technique in the Original, not even Jiraiya bothered to teach him any Fuinjutsu techniques. Let me see, if Naruto has any talent for Fuinjutsu."
Haah
Narutopletes the hand signs and ms his palm on the scroll.
Whoosh
He releases some chakra from his palm, but nothing happens.
''As expected his chakra control is terrible because of the interference of the Nine-tails. Maybe it is time for him to meet with the Nine-tails. Nine-tails will give him a huge power boost and he could catch up with Sasuke. Sasuke has already mastered his Sharingan to three tomoes with the training of Itachi and Sasuke.''
"I failed Nii-san." Naruto dejectedly hangs his head.
"Don''t worry Naruto. I will teach you"
Izuna signals him toe closer. Izuna activates his Sharingan and ces his hand on Naruto''s forehead.
Whoosh
Izuna and Naruto appear inside an undergroundplex with many pipes running along with the ceiling and hallways. The area is flooded with a shallowyer of water.
"Wow"
Naruto opens his eyes and curiously looks around.
"Wow where are we Nii-san. This ce is so weird?" Naruto walks towards a pipe and kicks it.
Ouch
He clutches his stomach and winces in pain.
"Why is it hurting my stomach?"
Izuna chuckles and points towards Naruto''s stomach.
"Check for yourself."
Naruto slowly stares at his stomach and notices a hole in it.
"Wha what is this? Nii-san I am dying, Nii-san there is a hole in my stomach. I haven''t even be the Hokage Nii-san." Naruto freaks out and hugs Izuna''s arm.
Haha
Izunaughs for a while before he pats Naruto''s head.
"Calm down, Naruto. Nothing is going to happen to you."
Izuna calms him down.
Roarr
A roar interrupts them.
"Hmm Naruto let''s go and check that out."
Both of them walk deeper into theplex.
''I will let Naruto face off against Nine-tails. I just can''t miss that first encounter.''
Whoosh
Izuna turns invisible as he follows Naruto.
"Hey, Nii-san what do you think is inside this ce?"
Naruto questions Izuna as he walks deeper.
Roarr
Another roar interrupts his thoughts.
Naruto dashes in the roar''s direction, and an enormous cage appears in his vision.
Roar
He notices the huge fox prisoned inside the cage.
"It''s huge."
Naruto''s eyes widen as he notices the size of the Nine-tails.
"Kide closer."
The Nine-tails growls at him.
"Huh!"
He walks towards the giant cage.
Swish
Nine-tails swipes his w at Naruto.
Whoosh
Naruto performs a backflip and avoids the attack.
"Hey what was that? Do you want to fight> Then I will beat you up?"
Naruto makes a shadow clone.
"Rasengan."
He makes a Rasengan and throws it towards the Nine-tails.
Swish
Nine-tails flicks the Rasengan with his w.
"Kid you have guts to attack me like that."
Whoosh
Red chakra seeps out from the prison and engulfs Naruto.
Aah
The chakra chokes Naruto.
Argh
"Nii-san help me." Naruto struggles to breathe as he asks for help.
Swish
Izuna swipes his hand and disperses the chakra.
"Wha what?" Nine-tails eyes widen in surprise as it stares at Izuna with disbelief.
Inside the Sin Grimoire
The Yin half of Kurama slowly opens his eyes and stares at his Yang Half.
"Well he can''t sense my presence. But I want to see him getting his ass kicked by Izuna."
""
Minato and Kushina silently stare at the Yin Half of Kurama.
"He is a part of you you know." Kushina asks him.
"He is but I suffered a beating from Izuna and I want him to feel my suffering."
""
Minato shakes his head and curiously looks at their interaction.
"Kushina both of us sealed our chakra inside the seal. But I guess our worries were unfounded with Izuna around."
"Yes, Izuna-kun is such a good brother."
Kushina nods her head.
"You are howe you are here?" Nine-tails growls at Izuna as he questions him.
Izuna reveals his Sharingan to Nine-tails as he walks inside the cage.
"Those eyes they are the same as Madara Uchiha."
Nine-tails recognize the Choku tomoe pattern of Izuna''s Sharingan.
"Nine-tails or should I say Kurama. You have some guts for trying to lure Naruto near the cage and attack him in front of me."
Bam
Izuna clutches his fist and punches the Nine-tails.
Woosh
Nine-tails fly through the cage and hits the other end.
"Behave"
Bam
He punches the Nine-tails again.
Growl
Nine-tails growls again and charges up a tailed beast bomb.
Bam
Izuna teleports on top of Nine-tails and punches it again.
Bam
Growl.
"You bastard." Nine-tails growls at him as Izuna presses him down.
"How do you know my name?" Kurama questions him as it is pressed against the floor.
Whoosh
Izuna flickers out of the prison as he talks with Naruto.
"Nii-san is that the Nine-tails? What is it doing here? Where are we exactly?"
He bombards Izuna with a flurry of questions.
"Calm down, Naruto. I will answer all of your questions."
Izuna calms him down.
"First of all, we are inside your Mindscape."
"Eh! Mindscape what what is that?" Naruto scratches his head in confusion.
Sigh
Izuna sighs and exins to him.
"Naruto A mindscape is a subconscious ne that can be essed by a person if the person is a jinchuruki or if he is a sage.
In your case Naruto you are a jinchuruki or to be exact the Nine-tails is sealed inside your body."
Izuna reveals the information to him.
''I think it is about time to tell Naruto about some facts, so it will prepare him in the future.''
"Nine-tails? So that''s why the vigers called me the Demon Fox." It dawns on Naruto as he stares at the prison.
"So the Nine-tails is living inside my body?" Naruto turns to Izuna.
"Well kind of," Izuna nods his head.
Naruto walks towards the prison and kicks the gate.
"Hey you I am letting you live inside my body. You owe me some rent." Naruto points at Nine-tails.
""
Izuna and Nine-tails silently stare at Naruto''s stupid remark.
"Well he is kind of correct. So, nine-tails, why don''t you pay him some rent."
Humph
Nine-tails snorts at Izuna and passes some of its chakras to Naruto.
"Brat take this and get away from my sight."
Whoosh
The chakra cloaks Naruto''s body as he closes his eyes.
Huh
Naruto opens his eyes and looks at himself in the real world. There is an orange chakra cloak around his body with one-tail.
"Somehow I feel quite strong."
Whoosh
Naruto flickers towards a boulder and punches it.
Bam
The boulder shatters into countless fragments.
"Strong I am feeling powerful." He turns to Izuna and yells.
"Hey Nii-san fight me. I think I can beat you now."
""
Izuna silently nods his head.
"Go on and try it."
Whoosh
Naruto disappears and reappears in front of Izuna.
''Slow he is very slow.''
Izuna yawnszily.
Bam
He karate chops Naruto on the ground.
Whoosh
The chakra cloak disperses and Naruto clutches his head.
"Aww that hurts Nii-san."
"Naruto remember this. This power is not your own it is a power you borrowed from the Nine-tails. If you want to use it properly, then you would have to train your body first.
Your body can only bear the burden of One-tails anymore, and you will suffer serious injuries. Also, don''t use this power recklessly. Use it only when you are in a life and death situation." Izuna warns him.
"Yes, Nii-san I will keep that in mind."
"Good." Izuna nods his head.
''I want Naruto to figure out his Ninja way on his own. If I interfered too much with his growth, then he won''t be the same Naruto he would be in the future.
He would have to settle things with the Nine-tails on his own.''
"Ok, Naruto let''s get going."
Izuna ps his hands to get Naruto''s attention.
"Time to go."
Both of them walk outside the vige.
