章 56: Chapter 56
"I don't know!" Naruto calls back. "Women are soo confusing."
Naru-nii then asks, 'you think you might be able to find out?'
"Maybe," Naruto wonders aloud. "Unlike Ino-chan, Kurenai-chan didn't specifically say she'd kill me if I didn't stay away."
'Alright,' Naru-nii states. 'Let's save that for later. We should get back to training.'
"…I don't think I can," Naruto weakly admits. "I want to train, really, I do, but I can't stop thinking about last night."
'Mnn, well, I can see that even if I don't get it,' Naru-nii sympathizes. 'Don't worry though. We can always go over some more plans,' he suggests.
"What kind of plans?"
'Well, I'd love it if we could do summons, but that can't happen until you meet your Godfather,' Naru-nii thinks aloud.
Annoyed by the information Naru-nii withholds, Naruto asks, yet again, "why can't you just tell me who he is?"
'He'll be in Konoha soon, don't worry,' Naru-nii reassures him. 'I've already told you he's really strong, and a pervert, but I'll make sure you know more before he gets there. Anyway, he's the one who teaches you to summon.'
"Fine," Naruto lets it go for the umpteenth time. "What other plans do you have?"
'A bunch of stuff really,' Naru-nii states generally. 'Sage Arts, Fūinjutsu, Fūton-ninjutsu, but those won't be for a while,' Naru-nii voices. 'Right now though there's one thing you can do that'll help you out a ton.'
"Really! Really! What? What is it?" Naruto rushes excited to focus on something that wasn't about last night.
'I want you to start talking to Kurama,' Naru-nii answers.
"Kurama?" Naruto quizzically repeats. "Didn't you mention him before? You said he's a friend."
'Yup, and he's your friend too,' Naru-nii asserts.
"Really?"
'It'll take some work—well a lot of work—but yeah.'
"No problem!" Naruto calls, easily accepting the hard work of it. "If you say he's a good friend and help me get stronger, I'm in! Where is he? Where can I find him?"
'He's in your stomach,' Naru-nii reveals, to Naruto's "Huh?" Naru-nii continues, 'he's the Nine-Tails in your seal.'
"You want me to be friends with the Kyūbi?"
'Yup! Now, I know what you're thinking, ' Naru-nii starts with a serious voice, prompting Naruto to listen carefully. 'But it's not like how the others say it is. All that nonsense about him being the epitome of evil and nothing but pure hatred is wrong. I'm going to tell you another secret so keep it to yourself or Ji-chan will be forced to detain you until you explain how you know things you shouldn't.'
Nary-nii explains Kurama's background, specifically how he was used like tool by a bad guy as well as the amount of hate he has for everyone who simply treated him like a monster. Throughout the explanation, Naruto understood all too well how it feels to be treated like a vile pest and followed Naru-nii's instructions on how to reach him.
'You don't need to try hard, just concentrate on a cold, scary feeling, and follow it. It'll be unsettling at first but you'll get used to it the more times you visit the seal. I gotta go now, but remember, this is just a meet and greet. Unless they absolutely have to, friends don't keep secrets from each other so if you want to tell Kurama about me, go ahead, or if you just want to curse him out, I get that too, but if you try understanding him I think it'll go better. It took me a while to truly understand his pain so don't worry if you guys aren't friends right away.'
'Got it! If you say he's your friend than I feel like he can be my friend too. See ya, Naru-nii,' Naruto thinks as he focuses on making his way to the seal. He can't tell if he's doing a good job until he feels that cold despair Naru-nii had mentioned. He had no idea how long he followed that feeling; even less when the pitch black of his focus faded into a low-lite dank sewer. Despite the creepy unease, Naruto continues until he enters a huge cavern with just as large dull golden gates on the other end of the grand expanse.
Fat water droplets dripping in shallow waters is the only sound in the room, and for some reason it carries, adding to the gloom of the devouring feeling creeping up his spine. Far too uncomfortable, Naruto can't help but call out, "Hello!" as loud as he can. "Any demons home?!" he adds walking further into the room.
Two large eyes slowly open displaying large feral red irises with the vertical pupils of a predator. "You will regret coming here, boy."
"Huge!" Naruto can't help but say looking at the giant beast behind the gold bars.
Baring white teeth larger than Naruto himself, a low growl slowly reverberates throughout the chamber. It's sinister red eyes glare down at Naruto, who had forgotten to expect it and is wondering why he's even there. Despite the strong creepy killer intent, he held just firm enough not to back away.
After several moments, the Nine-tails growls words. "Come closer boy."
Slowly, Naruto moves toward the large gates with the seal in the middle, calling out with a shaky voice, "h-h-hey! You don't scare me! I know all about you!"
"You know nothing brat!" The large feral monster bellows so loud it shakes the room and rattles Naruto's teeth.
But Naruto doesn't relent, shouting back against the enormous monster ahead as well as the creeping fear within. "I know your name! Not the Kyūbi but your real name! I know you were forced to attack the village! And I know you miss your father!"
The room settles enough where Naruto feels like he can breathe again as the large beast pauses. "..." Before asking in a single long drawn out word, "...how?"
"I was told," Naruto answers honestly, staring unflinchingly into large red eyes. "Listen up you dumb fox! I want to be your friend, so- so, my name is Uzumaki Naruto! Greatest Hokage there'll ever be!"
