37 Number 6 With Extra Chip

Minato stood in front of the beast, intending to protect his family at all cost.

(May I recommend a song playing while reading through this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbBNqxIyd2E)

'My dream to have a family...it is finally happening...it is fine for me to sacrifice my life for my wife and child. I want...my child to grow up at least with a loving mother...after all a mother loves is more important than a father's one.

Minato then decided on his idea....he will use the Reaper Death Seal.

The Reaper Death Seal, a forbidden technique that calls upon an avatar of the Death God. In exchange for your life in eternal limbo, the user will be able to request one task from the death god.

'I...i also want to be there for naruto...but my dream has been fulfilled...hue...funny thing, the majority of my mind is on how to save my wife and child and not village...but that is okay... I am willing to be selfish for my family---'

"Minato."

Minato who had the first hand seal ready to use the forbidden technique was broke out of his thinking when he hears his beloved wife voice. It always calms him down and makes him happy, just to hear his voice..one last time...he will engrain his wife's voice to the hell he is going to.

Kushina who is an expert in the art of sealing obviously recognize the technique Minato was using.

"Minato are you sure?"

Minato did not say anything, but his eye tells of his determination.

Kushina said nothing but turn around, showing her back to Minato.

"EUGH."

Numerous chain shot out of Kushina's back and quickly surround the tailed beast and binding it, rendering it immobile and quickly losing energy to even stand up properly.

Kushina knew this will not last long, she had used up her entire life force and chakra to overpower her adamantine chain to be able to bind the nine tail fox.

The chains, empowered by a pure blooded Uzumaki lifeforce and charka was stunningly big. In exchange of your life, you will be able to bind even the strongest being...for a while. Kushina was an Uzumaki and the Jinchuriki, thus her life force and chakra are massive and thus rendering the chains able to overpower the beast.

The fox who's being bound by the chain kept struggling to get out of it. It constantly roars at the puny human who dares bind him, crawling towards them desperately as well to kill the damn woman who is binding him! The legendary Kyuubi.

"DO..it Minato, seal the nine tail back into me, I will bring it to my death and forcing the beast to wait for years to reform...hurry minato...i cant hold this for long*cough*."

Minato quickly rushes towards Kushina who was already coughing blood.

"Kushina!"

Kushina looks at her husband, eyes clearly with no regrets.

"Minato...you who light my day and life..let me light the path for you and Naruto...as my..final act as a wife...and mother."

Kushina gave a smile towards her beloved husband.

"Kushina..."

Minato who saw this..clearly hesitate..but quickly decided upon his next action, he hugs Kushina...one last time.

"Kushina..you are the one..who made me decide upon being Hokage...you made me the man I am right now."

Kushina head was lean upon Minato's shoulder..enjoying the warmth one final time.

Naruto who was being warmth by both her daddy and mommy was smiling while sleeping peacefully.

"...And made my dream come true..my true dream was not being a Hokage...but to become a father...

yet i am unable to protect...this..dream... I am so useless..."

Kushina then broke the hug and look at Minato's eye.

"Minato...don't be too sad..today is...naruto..birthday...we..should be happy.. I had never ever..regret for a moment..being with you..loved by you...imagine us..growing up..together with Naruto. I am sure we will..be nothing but a happy family....of course..my only regret..was not being able..to..accompany..Naruto's..journey."

Minato who had been crying endlessly suddenly stood up and walk towards the front of the tail beast.

"Kushina..preserve what chakra you could..It is a father's duty to protect his child...and to be the first to fight against all threat. I will seal half of the nine tail within me..and the other towards....Na..Nar..Naruto."

Minato then proceeds with the rest of the hand seals to summon the avatar of the death god.

"Minato!"

Minato's flashback.

"So..what you are saying..Jiraya-sensei...is that the Child of Prophecy..will bring peace to the entire shinobi world..and you think..that child is me?"

"Who knows, Prophecy is often in riddle..it may be you..it may be your child..but one thing is for sure, you are a part of the prophecy..to bring peace to the world."

Jiraiya said while happily eating his meal of miso ramen.

End of flashback.

Minato before finishing the final seal, turn back and look at his wife and child one final time.

'Jiraiya sensei... I am certain..that my child would be the Prophesized one...That one... Prophet too said..a child of whisker and blue shall emerge..with strife and sorrow to arrive at his dream.'

"Minato!, why?... Sealing the beast into Naruto will bring nothing but misery to him!... Is this for the sake of the village power?! Minato!"

Minato who's back still facing Kushina and his child simply said.

"This is never about the village, from morning till now...my mind had always been about my family...right now..I am but a simple father...paving the way for his son...*sob*I could care less about the village...for all my love was for you and our child...I would be the villain for my family.. I would betray any others for my family..*sob*I became..Hokage..for you... I became..powerful for you...You are my sole reason Kushina...it was never about the village."

Minato then completes the final seal.

From the back, a ghastly figure could be seen, the Shinigami is a translucent, gaunt spectre with a demonic visage. It is much larger than an average human, possessing long, shaggy, white hair, from which two red horns protrude, as well as purple-coloured skin.

"Minato!"

Minato did not reply to her wife's call but continue to say.

"I wanted to become Hokage...to prove those who mock you wrong..my love..you..are the one I care about the most..the village may burn and be invaded but my concern will always be my family first..for..*sob* I am but a simple father."

The Shinigami who was summoned did not immediately hold the summoner souls..but look towards a certain direction...and bow a bit...before claiming the rightful price for summoning a god.

It was unknown to the family of 3 however.

"UGH."

Minato who's soul was being held felt a terrible stinging pain.

"There is 3 thing I am convinced today...the woman who attacked us...will bring a catastrophe to the world..and this child..our son..will stop him. He will open up the world as a Jinchuriki

..I don't know how but I am certain of it...and lastly...Our son...is the Child of Prophecy..."

Minato then finally turn around to look at his wife and said.

"He is our child after all...have faith in him."

"It is..because that is our son..that I don't want to have the same life...as I did....to bear such a heavy burden."
