Does Naruto hate the Nine-Tails?
The answer must be yes after all.
The source of all Naruto's miserable experiences and life was the demon fox inside him.
No matter how optimistic he was, he could never forget the eyes of those adults back then.
The feeling of disgust, indifference, and hatred still makes Naruto breathless to this day.
Therefore, Naruto harbored strong resentment towards the Nine-Tails sealed within him.
Now Yugito was asking him to try to accept the Nine-Tails and dispel the resentment in his heart.
Isn't this a joke?
"Pervy Sage, Colt..."
Naruto looked at the two people he trusted the most to seek advice, but he instead overheard this:
"I think what you are portraying is still rather conservative. There can be more verbs here, and the woman's feedback should be more intense."
"Makes sense. What advice do you have for the clothes?"
"Have you heard of the legendary set of women 'equipment' called Micro Bikini...?"
Naruto looked at the two who were eagerly communicating with a black line on his head.
"Pervy Sage! Colt! What the hell are you doing?!"
Konan also looked at Colt strangely.
She didn't expect this man, strong enough to defeat Nagato, to have so much in common with Jiraiya.
Could it be that Konoha's strong men were all perverts?
According to Jiraiya, this kid had many girlfriends.
Konan became more and more sure of her inner guess.
"Ahem, Colt, please help Naruto quickly." Jiraiya put away his inspiration notebook and brought the topic back on the right track.
"All right."
Colt sighed and came to Naruto's side.
He had just overheard the conversation between the Yugito and Naruto, which was similar to what he had thought.
To put it simply, the goal was to make the Nine-Tails willingly contribute its chakra, allowing Naruto to become the perfect Jinchūriki.
But this was also the crux of the matter.
What he could do was to resolve part of Naruto's resentment towards the Nine-Tails first, and rely on Naruto's own efforts for the rest of the steps.
After thinking about it, Colt said.
"Jiraiya-san, do you still remember what I said that day about the guy who stole the Rinnegan from Nagato?"
Jiraiya's expression immediately turned serious, and Konan also looked over.
She had known for a long time that 'Madara' had impure goals; she just didn't expect his target to be Nagato's Rinnegan.
"Konan-san, tell Jiraiya-san everything you know. This is our common enemy."
Konan nodded lightly and explained the establishment and development of the Akatsuki organization, and how it became what it was now.
The three most important figures in this story were Hanzō of the Salamander, also called as the demigod of the ninja world.
Next was Danzo, and finally the masked man 'Madara'.
Naruto was heartbroken.
He admired Yahiko's ideals and ambitions and regretted the fate of Nagato and Konan.
Jiraiya was even more angry, punching heavily on the ground.
"How come Danzo is everywhere? Without him, Konoha and the Ninja World would have so many fewer troubles!"
He didn't understand why Danzo wanted to get involved in the internal affairs of the Hidden Rain Village.
Colt twitched the corners of his mouth.
Could he say that this person was just written by Kishimoto to take the blame?
Jiraiya vented a little, but calmed down and focused on the masked person.
"So, he is Uchiha Madara?"
Colt shook his head.
"He's not Madara. I called myself Uchiha Tajima in front of him, and he didn't even react. He doesn't know him"
"Who is Uchiha Tajima?" Jiraiya asked innocently.
"Father of Uchiha Madara."
Jiraiya was silent; he didn't expect this trick to determine the enemy's identity.
Konan's defenses broke down.
She and Nagato had been suspicious of the masked man for so long, but Colt could see through it so easily.
Colt ignored the two people with somewhat broken mentalities and said to Naruto:
"I read information from the root organization and found that this masked man is the one who released the Nine-Tails and controlled it."
"So, in a way, the Nine-Tails is a victim just like you and me."
This was why he brought up the subject of the masked man in the first place.
Naruto's heart shook.
The matter was so complicated, and the conspiracy and tricks hidden in it made him unable to understand even if he tried to break his head.
Naruto suddenly raised his head and looked at Colt expectantly.
"Colt, do you know about my parents?"
Jiraiya was silent, his fists clenched tightly.
Colt was also stunned but when he thought about it, he nodded his head with a smile:
"Now the time is ripe; it's time for you to meet them."
Naruto was overjoyed.
Colt held his shoulders, and his eyes had become [Sharingan] before anyone could notice.
"Don't resist."
"Okay."
The spiritual bodies of the two of them came to the seal of the Nine-Tails.
Feeling the spiritual power of Colt and Naruto, the Nine-Tails opened its huge demon pupils and snorted coldly.
Naruto involuntarily took a few steps back.
"Colt, didn't you tell me I was going to meet my parents? How did we end up here?"
This wasn't the first time he had entered the sealed space within his body, but every time he saw the Nine-Tails' eyes full of pressure and malice, his heart beat faster.
"This is just a necessary process. Don't be impatient."
Colt didn't explain further, knowing Naruto would understand everything once Minato appeared.
Under Naruto's astonished eyes, Colt skillfully removed the seal of the Nine-Tails.
The Nine-Tails' reaction was even stranger; it straightened up and watched Colt's movements expectantly.
Since Naruto's last encounter with Colt, Colt hadn't entered this space to find Namikaze Minato again.
In the years they hadn't seen each other, the Nine-Tails had learned many new swear words for humans, just waiting for this moment to show off its talents.
As for taking the opportunity to swallow Naruto's consciousness and break free from the seal?
Colt was the real threat; it wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
A golden light appeared in the air of the sealed space, gradually converging into a human shape.
"Is Colt here again... I..."
Before Namikaze Minato could finish speaking, he saw Naruto's figure, and his voice stopped abruptly.
"Ugh... is that Naruto?"
Naruto also looked at him in amazement.
The countless times he had seen the Hokage Rock made him immediately recognize this person's identity.
"Fourth Hokage? Colt, why is the Fourth Hokage also in the seal?"
"You should call him Dad," Colt looked at Naruto with a smile.

****************
Namikaze Minato: ???
Naruto: ???
'Why do I need to call him dad? That's the fourth Hokage…'
"Ahem!" Colt coughed into his fist and said, "I mean, he's your father."
Naruto looked at Colt in disbelief, finally understanding.
"I know some things are hard for you to accept, but this is the truth," Colt explained patiently and gave him some time to think it through, and then turned to Minato.
"How can we awaken Kushina's chakra?"
Minato replied quickly.
"As long as Naruto tries to become a perfect Jinchūriki and tries to control the Nine-Tails' chakra, Kushina will appear to help him."
There was a look of anticipation in his eyes.
Kushina was Minato's one and true love.
The prospect of seeing his wife again naturally excited him.
Colt nodded and called out to the Nine-Tails, "Nine-Tails, cooperate."
The Nine-Tails was about to angrily berate Minato with his new curse words when Colt asked him to cooperate.
Needless to say, his reply was the same as usual.
"No."
Colt replied, "It's up to you."
His [Sharingan] flickered, and the Nine-Tails fell into an illusion.
"[Genjutsu: Sharingan]," Minato sighed and looked tenderly at Naruto.
"You're lucky to have such a friend, Naruto."
Naruto lowered his head, hiding his expression.
Colt soon controlled the Nine-Tails' chakra, allowing it to envelop Naruto's spiritual body.
Naruto then moved so fast and… punched Minato.
Boom!
Caught off guard, Minato took a solid punch from Naruto.
Colt looked on strangely, unsure if it was the Nine-Tails' influence or Naruto's own will. It seemed both played a part.
"Naruto."
Fortunately, Naruto's sanity returned somewhat at the sound of a gentle female voice.
A beautiful figure with red hair appeared before them.
At that moment, Naruto couldn't understand why, but his tears fell heavily.
"Kushina!"
Minato steadied himself, gazing excitedly at his long-missed wife.
"I'll give you some privacy. I'll chat with the Nine-Tails in the meantime. Come find me when you're done," Colt said, and Minato nodded gratefully before the family disappeared.
In the sealed space, only the Nine-Tails and Colt remained.
"Nine-Tails, you know why I'm here, don't you?" Colt conjured a wooden chair from thin air and sat down.
The Nine-Tails' tails stirred uncomfortably as Colt released the Genjutsu, and then he replied irritably, "You just want to use my power, right? Give it up, human. Even if you can control my body, you'll never have my heart!"
Colt: ???
Can't you phrase that better?
The Nine-Tails glared at Colt firmly.
His hatred for humans had accumulated since Hashirama Senju sealed him.
For thousands of years, humans had regarded the Tailed Beasts as symbols of disaster, leading to countless conflicts.
The Nine-Tails killed all opposition, and the humans sought to subdue him.
The cycle couldn't be explained in just a few short sentences.
Colt pondered for a moment, organizing his thoughts before speaking slowly, "Nine-Tails, you must have learned a lot through Naruto's experiences, right? There are people in the ninja world trying to capture the Tailed Beasts. Except for you, the other eight have already been caught."
The Biju's tails settled, his eyelids drooping.
Of course, he knew. He had seen Pain's [Rinnegan] clearly and understood the implications. Someone wanted to resurrect the Ten-Tails.
Colt continued, "I'm not asking you to wholeheartedly accept Naruto right away. Just give him a chance, and both of you try to work together. That way, you can continue to survive in this world, right?"
After saying this, he felt a bit awkward.
Why did it feel like he was playing matchmaker?
The Nine-Tails remained silent, and a strange quiet fell between them.
Soon, the Uzumaki family reappeared.
Minato and Kushina looked somewhat drained, especially Minato, whose face was bruised and swollen, clearly having endured some rough treatment.
Colt hurried over to replenish their chakra, curious about what had transpired.
"What happened?"
Kushina angrily explained, "It's all Minato's fault for making Naruto suffer so much. My poor child!" Tears filled her eyes as she hugged Naruto.
"Mom, it's alright. I've gradually been accepted by everyone, and I'll definitely become the Hokage in the future!" Naruto quickly comforted her.
Minato smiled helplessly; this wasn't how he'd wanted things to go.
Colt snickered inwardly.
Kushina truly lived up to her "Red Hot-Blooded Habanero" nickname.
Thankfully, the members of his family were gentler not like her.
With Naruto's comfort, Kushina's mood quickly improved.
She remembered to thank Colt.
"Colt, right? Thank you for taking care of Naruto all these years. Without you, who knows how much he would have suffered."
Colt waved his hands dismissively.
"No need to thank me. Naruto is my friend too. I just hope you don't blame me for arranging this meeting so late."
"Not at all," Kushina said quickly.
She understood Colt's reasoning.
With Danzō's presence in Konoha and Naruto's immaturity, an earlier revelation would have only hindered his growth. The current timing was just right.
Her Naruto had become a reliable ninja.
Kushina gazed tenderly at her son.
Colt then discussed the practice of controlling the Nine-Tails' chakra.
With Minato and Kushina's help, progress should be much faster.
Kushina also entrusted her own seal to Colt, allowing him to preserve this chakra.
Outside, Jiraiya and Konan looked puzzled at the suddenly tearful Naruto.
However, Jiraiya's eyes moved to the gradually fading [Eight Trigrams Seal], and he began to understand.
**********
Meanwhile, after taking Nagato's body and one [Rinnegan], Orochimaru couldn't wait to transplant it into himself. With his current body, he forcibly endured the [Rinnegan]'s terrifying pressure.
He also learned the Akatsuki's true purpose in capturing the Tailed Beasts.
However, to prevent Konoha from summoning the Gedo Statue through the [Rinnegan], Obito had placed many seals on it. Orochimaru's attempt to summon the Gedo Statue failed.
He managed to attract several White Zetsu by releasing the whereabouts of the Seven-Tails Jinchūriki.
After capturing a few, he released one with a certain mission, instructing the White Zetsu to deliver a message to Obito:
Orochimaru was ready to cooperate with the Akatsuki.
