I think this chapter will be a long one. For me, at least.

Despite Kyuubi being released, there were close to no casualties, except for a few Anbu, Biwako (The Sandaime's Wife), and Taji, who were the midwives for Kushina's child birth. A council meeting was to be held, and Minato was wondering what to say. Should he say that his newborn baby sealed Kyuubi into himself, by himself? Should he say that he performed the Shiki Fujin Justu without losing his life? Or should he just claim that a fairy appeared from the sky to seal the Kyuubi. To be frank, Minato couldn't even tell if a fairy came down and sealed it for him, as he was lost as all the other council members.
Once they were there, all the people in the council started to bombard Minato with questions. "Woah. Calm down," Minato tried to make it so that he could actually talk. But he couldn't blame them. Suddenly a powerful bijuu like the Kyuubi was sealed into Naruto, it was as if it had been that way all along.
"Ok, good," Minato said as everyone seemed to quiet down. "A jinchuriki's seal is weak at child birth. Incredibly weak. As some of you might have known or guessed by now, Kushina, my wife and former Jinchuriki was in labor. Taking advantage of this, a mysterious masked man whom we don't know the identity of, came into a highly fortified barrier and took our baby who is Naruto as hostage. He dropped the baby, and forced me to go to Naruto so that he wouldn't die. During that time, he got to Kushina and used an unknown space-time ninjutsu which allowed him to teleport. Thankfully I had my Flying Raijin markings on her seal, so I could get to her, but it was already to late. He had pulled out the Kyuubi from Kushina, but due to her Uzumaki strength, she managed to survive it, albeit barely. I was about to use the Shiki Fujin Jutsu that costs the user's life to seal the Kyuubi inside Naruto. If I didn't use that technique, we wouldn't have been able to stop the Kyuubi, and I needed to seal it inside Naruto so that he can have the power to defeat the masked man. If he intended to destroy Konoha, he would've came back to destroy it, and I would be dead."
Uchiha Fugaku asked, "Then how come you are alive right now? Shouldn't you be dead?"
"Here's the confusing part," Minato chuckled wondering how the council would react to what he will say."I didn't even execute the technique, but the Kyuubi was sucked into Naruto. I think Naruto sealed Kyuubi by himself." This raised controversy among those present.
"That's impossible!"
"You are just trying to hide a hidden ninjutsu!"
"Ridiculous!"
"Your eyes have gone bad, Minato."
Minato just chuckled.
"I hope you are not doing this to make fun of us. This is a serious matter."
"I'm as confused as you are," said Minato.
The Sandaime wanted to wrap this up and didn't want to prolong the council. "In any case, we will investigate the matter and lets be thankful that things didn't get worse. We all know we were incredibly lucky relatively to what could happen."
It pained the Sandaime to say this as Biwako was his wife and he was one of the casualties. "I am sorry I couldn't save Biwako-sama," said Minato.
The room was quiet for once, and the Sandaime was able to squeeze out a few words. "It's okay."
