Chapter 7: Explanation and meeting

Naruto led me to the kitchen and we sat around the table together and started enjoying the cake I brought with me together.

'This kid is really innocent and pitiful' I thought because he didn't even question if I have bad intentions by visiting right now.

"Do you like it?" I said.

Naruto raised his head from the cake and with the same happy smile as earlier now having his white teeth stained with chocolate said: "yes it's very delicious!!"

"I am glad to hear it but, Naruto I am not just here to bring you the cake," I said with a serious face while glancing at my map to check if there are any Anbu nearby and I found that they are just watching from a distance which is good for what I want to do.

"H-how do you know my name?" Naruto asked nervously.

I looked at the nervous kid in front of me and thought 'finally a normal reaction' before I said with a simile

"I know everything about you, including who your parents are and why people hate you; do you want to know the reason why?"

The nervousness quickly disappeared from Naruto's face and was replaced by intense desire and hope and he hurriedly said "please tell me who my parents are please!"

I looked at him with a serious face and said "once you know the truth, your life will forever change and you might even become an enemy of the village, so are you sure you want to know the truth?"

He didn't even take a second to decide or hesitate and responded by "yes! Please tell me".

" Listen carefully then and know that you can't share this information with anyone or you will be in danger, anyways let start first with why you are called a monster, the reason for that is because the nine-tailed fox that went berserk in the village 5 years ago is now sealed on you, and the previous person that had the nine tails sealed in them is your mother Kushina Uzumaki when she was going to give birth to you 5 years ago a masked man attacked the birth site and your father had to choose between saving you or your mother, your father the fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze"

I can see his expression changing from sadness, pain, and shock, and wanted to interrupt me and ask me some questions but I quickly cut him off and said

"hold your questions until I finish, while your father was taking you to a safe place the masked man didn't waste any time and unsealed the nine tails from your mother and started controlling him to attack her but your father saved her just in time while the masked man teleported inside the village and summoned the nine tails which started the incident the people hate you for ..."

The author's narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

I continue explaining how his parents died while trying to seal the nine tails and how they entrusted him to the third Hokage but as he can see he easily broke his promise and that Danzo one of the elders of the village is the one that spread bad rumors about you and the Third Hokage did nothing about it.

After I was done with my explanation tears fell from his eyes and I can see his worldview collapsing and he felt something change inside of him, he didn't desire acceptance from this village anymore.

I simply hugged him while saying " it's okay you are not alone"

And these words made his heart that almost sank in darkness resurface again but what was tainted will not change back.

"What should I do now," he said with a sad face while leaving my hug reluctantly.

"I can help you meet your parents again" I said out of nowhere making him look at me with a doubtful but excited face.

"R-r-really? Can you really help me meet them?"

"Yes I can" I said with a warm smile" but we will also meet the nine tails so you should stay closer to me and only listen to me no matter what understood?" I said with a serious face.

He nodded his head repeatedly " first let me see how the situation is and I will show you how to do it too when I am done"

And he obediently accepted and so I put my hand on his abdomen and started focusing my mind and chakra into it until I felt my vision suddenly change and I found myself in a dimly lit space with water under me and a huge metallic cell door in front of me.

I felt danger hiding in the darkness behind that door just waiting for an unsuspecting intruder to come closer to swallow.

I came close to the door and I said with a grin "I didn't know the nine tails likes to play hide and seek"

Suddenly to blood-red orbs shone just in front of my face behind the door and a terrifying bloodlust started radiating from the darkness and a heavy deep voice said "what are you doing here kid?"

"Stop trying to intimidate me I didn't come here with bad intentions towards you and you should be able to feel that right?" I said.

"Hmph" the nine tails snorted and said" I saw you telling the kid about his origin I can tell you want to manipulate him, I'd rather not trust you"

"Well well don't you know it's rude to listen to other people's conversation" I said and I quickly received a fist smashing on the door as a response and the nine tails started growling like a beast.

"Okay okay I am just kidding don't be angry, actually I pity you and I came here to offer you a deal I wonder if you are interested?" I calmly said

Suddenly he stopped his growling and gave me a sinister smile and said "sure as long as you unseal me I can grant you anything"

And I couldn't help but laugh " hahahahaha " while thinking ' can he really not see that sinister smile on his face, only an idiot would believe his words and I only laughed harder when he started growling at me again and smashed the door saying I will kill you and whatnot.

"Okay okay stop I am not here to antagonize you but to befriend you but I just couldn't hold my laugh back with you trying to make me trust you with that sinister smile on your face" I said.

Probably due to the long time since he interacted with anyone he really didn't notice that his intentions were written all over his face which made him a little embarrassed but he didn't show it and just kept glaring at me.

'How cute 'I thought and I said " well I was indeed going to offer to unseal you but I can't do that when you are like this since I can't trust you so we first need to build on this point if we want to have a deal "

He looked at me silently retrieved his bloodlust and said, this time hiding his intentions "come inside my cell and I will trust you"

I looked at him deeply for a few seconds before saying "today your body is sealed and you can't free yourself but you have complete control over your heart and it's your choice to unseal it or keep it locked forever with no one attempting to trust you again"

And with that said, without hesitation, I stepped foot in that sealed darkness...
