It’s no wonder this chapter is entitled Thank You. It was, after all, the only words Naruto was able to say after her mother finished explaining to him the decision she and his father made years ago.

The charter begun with Minato trying to convince Kushina why he is sacrificing himself to save Naruto. He argued that his decision is not only to save the village but to give Naruto a good life. As they were discussing, the Third and some shinobi arrived but they can’t interfere with Minato and Kushina as there is a barrier around them. They all, however, witnessed Minato’s Dead Demon Seal.

Going back to the fox, it did some background check and learned that Minato is trying to seal it in Naruto’s body, so it tried to kill the baby but failed as Minato and Kushina stopped it with their bodies. Before Minato closed the jutsu, they said their last words to Naruto. It was a very emotional moment for the family.

When the scene moved back to Naruto’s subconscious, Kushina and Naruto made their final bond before Kushina disappeared. Naruto then understood everything making him much powerful and confident this time.

Loved this chapter. It tells of the strong familial bond present even in make-believe characters. I can’t wait for the next chapters. Looking forward to what will happen next. I’ll gather some background check information first on the next chapter. Until then.

Hi guys, I’m back! Leaving off from the last chapter you just have seen where Minato knocks Madara with the Rasengan and that Madara suffered an arm injury. Minato, who is the fourth hokage, also winded up marking Madara allowing him to use the Flying Thunder God technique. And because of that, Minato has to use a contract seal to end Madara’s power over the Nine-Tails. After that encounter, Madara escapes with the promise that one day he will return and will take back what is his.

In the mean time, Kakashi, Kurenai, and the other kids wanted to help their parents in the fight only to get hard objection from the grownups. This is something so real and admirable in Naruto. They live in complex, imaginary world, but if you do a background check, the story is something that can happen in real life. Parents are still parents, and they would do everything to protect their kids.

Anyhow, Sarutobi’s group had cast out the Nine-Tails from the village but it fired another demonic Ball attack. Good thing Minato was able to summon Gamabunta and drive the demon fox and the blast away from the village. He then went to where Kushina and Naruto were. Kushina was holding the fox down with her special abilities, but she doesn’t have enough Chakra to keep the fox in control. So, with her little Chakra left she decided to drag it back inside her and die with it.

But Minato had other plans. He will use Kushina’s remaining chakra, the Dead Demon Seal to seal half of the fox into Naruto, and use the rest of his chakra to seal the other half even if it could result in this death. The chapter ends with Minato maneuvering the Dead Demon Seal, leaving us wanting for more and scraping for background check information on the next chapter. See you again next time for more Naruto action.
