My Son...

If you are reading this, then I have passed on as I feared might be the out come of the battle I must fight so you and the village are safe from the Kyuubi at last. Knowing these fools who look for hero's they will blow this battle out of the lines and make my name go down in history as some kind of timeless Hero. This is not what I wanted or hoped for by doing what I must do to keep my real treasure safe.

You are that treasure Naruto, my only son.

My last request of the old man Sarutobi is that you will be taken care after I am gone and put under his protection as best as can do with taking my place as the Hokage of Konohagakure. I fear you will bear the burnt of the village for also what I must do by in caging the Fox into your body to act as a living cage...there is no other way or anyone else I would choose for this at all Naurto.

You may come to hate me once you are told the truth of your parents when the day comes and this letter is given to you when the third thinks it is the right time for you to know. But please hear me out in these words Naruto for the reason I choose you for this task.

For one you are my son, I know you will carry this burden with the stench of being my son. Also you have the stubbornness of your passed on mother so I know no matter the odds sent against you. You shall over come those and burn brightly like the golden sun you are in my life. Naruto, no matter what happens to you or who you encounter or what any dares to say. Just know that you are loved by me and your mother for all time. The best of us is in you, I can see it already on your first breathe in this world and wide bright eyes locking on to mine.

Burn Brightly my son, burn more brighter then I did or anyone else ever will Naruto!

Your Father
