The cries of a newborn echoed through the hidden chamber beneath the Hokage Tower. Outside, the night was ablaze — the Nine-Tailed Fox ravaged the village, its roar splitting the sky in two. Inside, Kushina Uzumaki smiled weakly, holding her son close.

The Fourth Hokage turned from the sealing scrolls, sweat beading his brow. "Calm?" he asked, breathless.
Kushina nodded, her eyes soft. "It's… perfect. Like he was born already knowing how to use it."
The moment was fleeting. The sealing ritual began, destiny was written, and the Kyūbi's power was divided between a mother's sacrifice and a father's hope.
But even sealed inside, the beast stirred uneasily.
This boy… this vessel is not ordinary.
