But Naruto has half of the Uzumaki Clan bloodline in him, your Uzumaki Clan bloodline...""So what I want to ask is, does your Uzumaki Clanhave any Bloodline Limit similar to one that awakens when near death?""I don't mean anything else by it, I swear!"Kushina's hand stopped, but she kept twisting Minato's ear, lost in thought while maintaining the pose.A few seconds later, she let go, turned her head away, and lifted her chin slightly."Hmph... although your explanation is barely reasonable, I'm still very annoyed."Minato rubbed his bright red ear and gave Naruto a wry smile that said, "Your mother is just like this; I'm used to it."Naruto stood there, watching the couple—one rubbing his ear, the other turning away—his mouth twitching, with ten thousand complaints bottled up in his throat."You two, the most important issue right now isn't what Bloodline Limit I have; that's just an explanation I made up on the spot. Don't get so hung up on this kind of thing, hey!"Of course, he didn't say it out loud.After that, Minato Namikaze spent several minutes coaxing Kushina.Kushina turned back around, stood side-by-side with Minato in front of Naruto, and the two finally returned to the main topic."Alright, Naruto..."Minato cleared his throat, tried his best to hide his pinched-red ear behind his blonde hair, and resumed the professional tone of the Fourth Hokage:"Back to the topic from before, what exactly is this ability you say you possess?""This ability of mine?"Naruto raised his right hand, his five fingers slightly spread: "It allows my consciousness to act like a hand, to touch, perceive, and control everything inside my body.""Every strand of Chakra, every muscle, can be directly controlled.""Dad, try moving for a second?"Minato subconsciously tried to lift his right hand.Then his expression changed.His right hand didn't budge an inch.It wasn't as simple as not being able to lift it; even the signal to "lift" hadn't been transmitted.He couldn't feel his own Chakra flowing, couldn't feel the existence of his limbs; it was as if he were frozen in a block of transparent amber.The Fourth Hokage's combat instincts activated instantly, attempting to forcibly circulate his Chakrato break the restraint.The Chakra did indeed move, surging toward his right hand, but that power lost its shape halfway there, like a high-pressure water gun spraying into a black hole—it was absorbed completely, without even a recoil force feedback.Minato smiled wryly and gave up the attempt, his eyes filled with both shock and admiration: "I can't move at all.""This level of control, I'm afraid, has already reached the essential level of Chakra!""It's not a physical restraint, nor is it a confrontation of conventional Chakra, but rather fundamentally taking over the connection between my existence and this mass of Chakra.""Exactly."Naruto nodded: "Because, right now, you exist inside my body; although it's in the form of Chakra, this form still relies on my body to be maintained.""And my ability happens to be able to control all the energy and matter within my body, so naturally, you are under my control as well.""As for why I awakened this ability..."Naruto blinked and calmly stated the explanation he had prepared in advance: "I guess it's probably because Mom is from the Uzumaki Clan, naturally possessing the powerful vitality and control to suppress Tailed Beast Chakra, and Dad is a genius at the pinnacle of the Ninja World, with top-tier Chakra talent.""With two such strong bloodlines combined, plus the fact that I am also the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, living under the mixed pressure of three forces for a long time, maybe at the moment of near-death, it triggered some kind of critical point, awakening a talent that has never appeared in the history of the family."Naruto was speaking half-truths.The bloodline combination was real; the near-death trigger was fabricated. But in a worldview like the Ninja World, where genetic mutations happen faster than turning a page, this explanation sounded surprisingly reasonable.Minato and Kushina exchanged a look."Although I've never heard of such a precedent..."Kushina nodded slowly, her eyes carrying the sensitivity to Sealing Jutsu from the long history of the Uzumaki Clan: "But in the foundation of the Uzumaki Clan's Sealing Jutsu, there are indeed many heritages regarding ancient secret scrolls that act upon one's own body.""Although most of these secret scrolls were burned after the fall of the Land of Whirlpools, if Naruto's bloodline has truly undergone an atavistic phenomenon, it is not impossible to awaken something similar but even stronger."Minato also chimed in: "My Rasengan is itself a jutsu that pushes shape transformation to the extreme.""In a sense, it is a training process of constantly honing the manipulation of Chakra's form itself.""If this trait is inherited in the form of a talent and fuses/mutates with Kushina's bloodline..."Minato nodded slightly, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes: "Then the appearance of this ability is not without a trace.""Alright!"Minato finally made the decision, his expression brightening again: "Although the specific mechanism of this Bloodline Limit exceeds the scope of your mother's and my understanding, the Ninja World is full of wonders.""Naruto, since you possess it now, it is your power.""Your mother and I accept this explanation."Kushina nodded in agreement.She reached out and ruffled Naruto's hair.This time it was the gentle kind, not like the fist from before.Then she smiled: "Besides, no matter what ability Naruto has awakened, I am still Naruto's mother.""That doesn't need an explanation."Minato smiled too, and then his expression returned to the crispness and efficiency expected of a Hokage.He lowered his crossed arms and straightened his shoulders slightly."Alright, let's get to the main point now.""Naruto, you said earlier that you need our help?""Do you mean that you need us to help you suppress the Nine-Tailed's Chakra, and then use this ability of yours to control the Nine-Tailed?"As soon as he finished speaking, before Narutocould respond, Kushina spoke up first.She took a step forward and stood in front of Naruto, her expression devoid of any joking, filled only with deep seriousness and worry."Naruto, no.""Although your Bloodline Limit can control the power within your body, the Nine-Tailed is different from your father and me.""When it comes to the level of the Nine-Tailed, the gap between two masses of Chakra is three or four orders of magnitude.""The Nine-Tailed's Chakra is not mere energy; it also contains the hateful will it has accumulated over thousands of years.""Do you know how many Jinchuriki have been backlashed to the point of having their spirits devoured when trying to control the Nine-Tailed's power?""Even I, back in the day, spent most of my life forcibly suppressing it; I couldn't achieve true control at all.""You are still too young right now. Let's take it one step at a time. When you are a bit older and stronger, we can discuss it further, okay?"Kushina's voice gradually turned from urgent to earnest.As she spoke, her fingers gripping Naruto's shoulders tightened involuntarily.Naruto waited quietly for Kushina to finish, then shook his head.
