Chapter 408 - 93

Kakashi had a certain understanding of the strength of his three students, especially Narutoand Sasuke. Based on his estimation, both of them already had at least the strength of a Jonin, perhaps even higher.Even so, as a tradition of Team 7, the bell-snatching game still had to be done. However, Kakashi was afraid of capsizing in the gutter—if that happened, he would be quite embarrassed as a teacher.So, he thought of a solution: Kakashi decided to invite Might Guy to help him complete this trial together.After learning about this, Naruto couldn't help but complain in his heart that Kakashi was truly too cunning, actually resorting to such a flashy move as bringing in outside help.Since that was the case, he wouldn't be polite either. Naruto immediately stated, "Kakashi-sensei, doing this is a bit against the rules! However, it's not that we can't agree, but we need some time to prepare. Let's set it for three days from now! What do you think?"Faced with such a request, Kakashi naturally had no reason to refuse, so both parties set the time for the bell-snatching trial for three days later.The three days Naruto set were certainly not without purpose. Although the time wasn't long, it was enough for him. Naruto decided to completely release the Nine-Tailed.For the sake of safety, he specifically went to Shikkotsu Forest and asked Sage Katsuyu to protect him. In this way, it could be said that there would be no risk of failure.After everything was ready, Naruto came before the Nine-Tailed. Although Kurama tried hard to control its facial expressions, Naruto could tell from its eyes that it was still very excited.Although it would still remain inside Naruto's body after being unsealed, the two situations had vastly different meanings. After all, the feeling of being forcibly sealed in a corner was not pleasant.Naruto slowly rose and soon reached the height of the seal talisman. He did not hesitate and reached out his left hand to grab the talisman. But just as he was about to tear it off, Naruto suddenly felt a surge of Chakra appear beside him.Naruto, of course, knew that this was a surge of Chakra his father had left inside his body. Furthermore, he had long been prepared and directly blocked Minato's hand. Moreover, his left hand showed no intention of stopping, and he tore the seal talisman off completely.Minato had originally thought that Naruto was bewitched by the Nine-Tailed and had lost consciousness, which was why he was doing this. Therefore, he felt that he only needed to stop him and reveal his identity to wake him up, but he didn't expect to be blocked a step ahead.However, at this moment, Minato didn't have time to think too much. He could already feel the Chakrareleased by the Nine-Tailed rushing towards him. He grabbed Naruto and quickly retreated with him, putting some distance between them and the Nine-Tailed.Whether the Nine-Tailed wanted to intentionally scare Minato or was just excited after being unsealed, it let out a roar at Minato.Minato looked at the Nine-Tailed as if facing a formidable enemy and muttered to himself, "This is bad. In my current state, I'm afraid I'm no match for it. Kushina Uzumaki, you should come out too! Now, the only thing we can do is join forces and try to see if we can seal it again."As soon as his voice fell, a figure appeared by his side. That bright red long hair was very eye-catching; she was none other than Naruto's mother, Kushina Uzumaki.As soon as she appeared, she couldn't help but complain, "Minato, what happened? How did you let it break the seal and escape? How could the measures you left behind be so unreliable, ya know?"Listening to Kushina Uzumaki's words, Minatodidn't dare to talk back; he just kept scratching his head with a sheepish smile, then showed an apologetic expression.Kushina Uzumaki was about to continue scolding Minato when suddenly a hand appeared on their shoulders, and before they could react, they were pulled over.The three faces were pressed tightly together. Although Naruto had a smile on his face, he said with a sobbing tone, "Alright, Mom, don't be mean to Dad the moment you meet. I really missed you both so much. To be able to see you here, I'm really so happy!"Kushina Uzumaki also really wanted to have a good chat with her son, but now was clearly not the time. Seeing how nervous the two of them were, Naruto said, "Alright, Kurama, stop scaring my mom and dad. Look, they won't even spare me a glance."Upon hearing Naruto's words, the Nine-Tailedindeed sullenly quieted down, and Minato and Kushina Uzumaki finally turned their heads, staring tightly at their son in disbelief.Naruto felt a bit embarrassed by their gaze and said with a blushing face, "Don't look at me like that. Although I know I'm very handsome, you two should have been mentally prepared, after all, I inherited your excellent genes, ya know. Actually... Ouch! That hurts!"Before Naruto could finish speaking, Kushina Uzumaki gave him a flick on the forehead. Not knowing if it was truly because the iron fist of love was unstoppable, Naruto, who was like a rubber man, was actually in so much pain that tears were about to flow.Kushina Uzumaki regretted it slightly right after throwing the punch; the first time she met her son, she had actually shown him her violent side.However, since she had already done it, she had to maintain her dignity as a mother. She pretended to be serious and said, "Stop beating around the bush. Hurry up and tell me, what is going on here?"As the saying goes, it hurts the child's body but hurts the father's heart. Minato watched his son in so much pain he was about to cry and really wanted to step forward to comfort him, but seeing Kushina Uzumaki's fierce look, he eventually dismissed the thought.Naruto was also afraid of getting hit like that again, so he said in an aggrieved manner, "Kurama and I reconciled a long time ago. We have become partners capable of fighting side by side. Releasing him this time was entirely my intention."Kushina Uzumaki was a woman with methods; she was well-versed in the approach of hitting with a slap and giving a sweet date. After Naruto finished speaking, she stepped forward and hugged Naruto, kissing his forehead while saying, "Did I hurt you just now? Oh, Mom's heart aches for you. But you can't blame me either, do you know how dangerous it is once the Nine-Tailed is released? Good son, tell Mom quickly, what exactly is going on here?"Naruto wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and began to feel a bit sorry for Minato. He really didn't know how he endured Mom's such explosive temper.However, he didn't dare to delay with his mouth. Naruto quickly said, "This matter is too troublesome to explain. How about this, I'll show you this, and you'll be able to know what has happened during this time."After speaking, Naruto activated his Sharingan, wanting to tell them what had happened during this period in the form of a genjutsu. The moment they fell into the genjutsu, Minato and Kushina Uzumaki were shocked once again.
