Minato gets to know Truth!

"What happened?" Minato muttered as he heard Kurama's growls, and Kazutora shook his head.

"It's nothing, I just showed him a little illusion and have him know his position. Or, he would have screamed and acted like a demon fox to scare and show off his majesty."

Kazutora's eyes flickered as he spoke. He had encountered only Matatabi in addition to Kurama among the tailed beasts, and he found contentment with his pet cat rather than the tsundere fox.

Minato didn't know what to say to those words, and Kazutora waved his hand.

"There's no need to overthink it. It appears he can't understand without meeting the other party directly. Anyway, returning to the main topic, as Tsunade mentioned, we've summoned you because we need to retrieve Kurama and utilize his chakra."

"The one in Naruto can't be used since it might hurt Naruto and his body won't be able to hold on repetitive chakra absorption."

Kazutora said and Minato's expression changed at his words. He was glad that they cared about Naruto and didn't want to use Kurama in him since it might hurt, but he felt weird as he thought of Kurama inside him.

"Can I start?" Kazutora asked Minato after noticing his silence and Minato nodded with a solemn look on his face. He lifted his clothes and Kazutora looked at the seal on the stomach. His eyes changed, making Minato feel some pressure, and Kazutora coated his fingers with chakra.

As he broke the seal, dark orange chakra appeared around Minato but under the effect of Kazutora's Rinnegan, it was suppressed and couldn't do anything.

He extracted the whole Yin Kurama and put a seal on it that compressed the size to the shape of a chibi Nine tails.

Minato looked at the little nine-tails with a strange look in his eyes and he looked at Kazutora. The seal pattern that had appeared on Kurama's body was quite complex and even he, who is well versed in Fuinjutsu couldn't understand most of it.

Kazutora looked at the unconscious Kurama for a moment and then he sent it to his dimension. Minato looked at Kurama disappearing, and he had noticed the fluctuations in Space.

'Flying Thunder God? But it would take immense chakra to send a tailed beast away.'

Minato thought in his mind, and he wanted to use Sensory perception to check him, but he controlled himself as it would be rude.

"Well, let's talk now. In twenty days, the Chunin Exam will be held, and all four villages are planning to attack together."

"We are more than enough to handle them but there will be external enemies who are much stronger than the Four Kages."

"As for how strong they are, we don't know but they will be close to First Hokage's level."

Tsunade said after thinking for a moment and Minato's expression changed as he heard the words.

"First Hokage's level? How do you know this?" He asked as he found the weak point in her words and Tsunade said, "I have my methods and it would take a long time to explain them."

"We will take care of the situation, and you just need to do your duties as father, not as Fourth Hokage. Do you understand, Minato?"

Tsunade said sharply as she looked at Minato, who smiled wryly at her words. He understood what she was trying to say, and a sigh escaped his lips.

"If you need any help, just contact me," Minato said and he sensed a Flying Thunder Mark. He was about to leave but Kazutora stopped him by putting his hand on his shoulder.

"The village has a Space-Time barrier so don't teleport or you will be trapped in it. You should know why this was set up," Kazutora said, and a look of understanding appeared on Minato's face. Then, his face turned cold as he thought of that masked man, and Minato asked, "What happened to the Masked Man?"

"No need to worry, he did come to Konoha once and was driven away. We do have some information on him but it's better for you to not know them," Kazutora said with a flicker in his eyes and Tsunade hit his shoulder lightly.

She could see that he was baiting Minato and if he didn't want to tell, he could have just said that they didn't know anything.

Minato frowned as he heard the words and he looked at Tsunade. She shook her head, telling him that he shouldn't know this but was that even possible?

How could Minato not ask for the Man who killed him, and his wife and prevented them from living with their son?

"Who is he??" Minato asked with a serious look appearing on his face and Kazutora sighed at him. He looked at Tsunade, who rolled her eyes as she understood what he meant, and Tsunade said, "It's Obito Uchiha."

"Huh?" Minato said with a stunned look on his face, and he asked, "Who?"

He believed that he had heard incorrectly but the serious look on Tsunade's face made him understand that she wasn't joking.

"B-But, how was that possible? D-Didn't Obito die?" Minato asked as his body trembled in response. His words made Tsunade laugh in anger and she said, "That's what everyone thought since his body wasn't found. But it was indeed Obito Uchiha who released Nine Tails in the village."

"Someone saved him, and then blackened Obito by killing the one he loves. Do you remember how strange Rin's death was? Sealing Sanbi in her to wreak havoc? What a stupid plan! How could a Kage allow the Tailed Beast to be sealed like that?"

"What if Rin was captured by other villages or even secured by Konoha? Then wouldn't they lose their Tailed Beast?"

"And, the most important thing is that Rin knew that there was a tailed beast in her. Kakashi said when he told the details and the fact that Rin jumped at him and died because of Chidori."

"But, if someone doesn't know this, they will only think that Kakashi killed Rin and that's how Obito saw, which led to the awakening of his Mangekyo Sharingan."

"Everything was nothing but a plan to awaken Obito's Mangekyo Sharingan and now he goes around wearing a mask and calls himself Madara."

Tsunade said with a strong distaste and disgust apparent in her voice. Hearing her words, Minato was shocked, but he couldn't find the loophole in her words. He also knew about Uchiha and, he knew that Obito was different from other Uchiha.

"Those kinds of Uchiha, who have immense love in them are the most dangerous in the world. When they lose their love, their hatred multiplies by ten times, and they become disasters to the world."

"Obito is the same and he even had plans on doing something to Naruto. If it wasn't for the seals around, he would have appeared in Konoha and taken him away without us knowing anything."

Tsunade clicked her tongue as she said them, and it was for this reason that she allowed the use of Impure World Reincarnation to test Obito's life and death.

"But how do you that he is Obito?" Minato asked with a conflicted look on his face and Tsunade stared at him. He looked at his body and Minato understood how they knew about Obito.

"Did you use Kakashi's Sharingan?" He asked and when Tsunade nodded, Minato looked down with his fist clenched.

"Why? Obito, why?" He said in a low voice and Minato didn't understand why Obito would release Nine Tails in the village.

"Were you blaming me for not saving Rin?" He said to himself, and Tsunade's expression changed at his words. She snorted at the stupid words but when she remembered that Obito was indeed stupid, she looked at Kazutora, who nodded with a mocking look in his eyes.

'That fucking son, no! That fucking bastard! Did he really release Nine Tails because he blamed Minato? That shouldn't be it.'

Tsunade thought in her mind and then shook her head. She didn't think she could understand how Uchiha's brain works, and looking at Minato, Tsunade sighed and said, "Minato, you don't need to care about this matter. You better go and meet Naruto."

"If you have any other thoughts, I will cancel the technique and send you to Pure Land."

Minato looked at Tsunade with a bitter smile on his face. A sigh escaped his lips as even though he wanted to go out and look for Obito, he knew that it wasn't possible since he couldn't sense the mark on him.

Also, he didn't even know where Obito was so Minato decided to not think about him for now and said, "Let's go and meet Naruto."

"You better perform a transformation technique first," Kazutora said as he created a water mirror, and Minato looked at his cracked face. He used a transformation technique to make the cracks disappear, and they left the shrine.

Kazutora looked in the direction and released his senses. Finding Naruto's location, he found him at Uchiha Clan, and Kazutora disappeared from the place with Tsunade and Minato.

"Uchiha clan?" Minato muttered as he looked around and saw fans around. His expression changed when he looked at people there smiling, and Minato asked, "Is this really Uchiha Compound?"

"Haha, many things in the village have changed. You can later look around with Naruto." Tsunade said with a proud look on her face, and Kazutora rolled his eyes at her words. She was saying as if everything was done by her, but Kazutora didn't burst her bubbles. After all, she did work hard, even if it was her Wood clones instead of her.

"Naruto is at Sister Mikoto's house, and playing with Sasuke," Kazutora said as he looked in the direction, and Minato smiled at his words. They appeared at the House and Kazutora rang the bell.

Inside the house, Mikoto who was watching Sasuke and Naruto playing board games with a smile on her face, heard the bell ringing. She looked in the direction and walked to the gate.

As she opened the door, her expression changed, and her eyes lit up as she looked at the familiar people. But then, her eyes widened as she looked at the blond man and Mikoto said, "M-Minato?"

"Kazutora, is this a prank?" Mikoto said to Kazutora, who chuckled at her words. A wry smile appeared on Minato's face, and he noticed that the tone Mikoto used when she talked with Kazutora was the same as how she talked with Kushina.

"It isn't a prank, Mikoto-San."

"Mm, let's go inside and talk," Tsunade said with a hum and she saw that Kazutora had already entered as if he owned the house. A weird look flashed in her eyes when she saw no change in Mikoto's expression, and hearing her words, Mikoto nodded and said, "Come in,"

In the house, Kazutora appeared in the room, and looking at Naruto and Sasuke playing a board game, he sat beside them.

"Eh? Kazu-Nii? Are you here to play with us?" Naruto, who noticed Kazutora first, said and then he heard growls in his mind.

"I am not here to play but let you meet someone," Kazutora said with a smile on his face and a curious look appeared on Naruto's face. Sasuke looked at them and he felt his head getting flicked.

"Again?" Sasuke said as he rubbed his head that was flicked by Kazutora, and Naruto laughed at him.

"Haha! Stinkisuke, you always get hit by Kazu-Nii." Naruto said with a laugh, and he felt his head getting rubbed by a hand.

"What was that name, Naruto?" Hearing the soft female voice, Naruto froze, and he turned around. Looking at Mikoto smiling at him, Naruto's expression changed, and he said, "Ah! Eto! Oba-San, That!"

"I will let you go for today," Mikoto said as she pinched his face and she looked at Kazutora.

"Why do you flick his head every day?" She asked as she sat beside Sasuke and her expression changed when she noticed a seal pattern on his head.

"We will talk later, for now, let Naruto meet him. Besides, I have something important to talk to you about, and it's related to Sasuke." Kazutora said with his eyes narrowed and hearing the change in his tone, Mikoto knew that it was a serious matter.
