Chapter 7
Reviews answers
Batros940- Naruto should be able to draw out the nature chakra out of kushina's arm with no trouble.Basically instead of absorbing nature chakra from his surroundings just absorb it out of her arm.
Ans :- it would be possible if it was only nature chakra but the nature chakra inside her arm is mixed with her own chakra so it's not possible
He can only draw in pure nature chakra
zx20000006- Bro why are you dumbing everyone one down to make naruto look intelligent minato and Jiraiya are sages in training kushina's hand turned to stone while she was holding Naruto hand whileNaruto was going into sage mode they should have been easily able to connect the dots here also Naruto saying "oh I know what's happening" like he is answering a question in a classroom just breaksup the dialogue
Ans :- Naruto only said that because he did not hear minato and Kushina talk while he was in his mindscape talking to kurama
And minato already connected the dots and explained to Kushina the imbalance of nature chakra inside her arm and the whole body
Minato asked Naruto to know his perspective on how this happened as he asked jiraiya
Batros940 :- Honestly the excuse of how Naruto died is really dumb.Since iwa is constantly trying to kill Minato's family, there is no way any of his kids are going to be sent on solo missions, or even on a mission with just Naruto and Mito.That's asking for them to be killed away from the village.If anything each of Minato's kids should have two full teams with them not to mention having Minato's sealed kunai so he can be teleported to them in a moment's notice.
Ans :- what you are saying is true but seeing Naruto's personality he would not let any one get hurt so that he can be saved and plus his chakra was sealed because of which he cannot use Minato'skunai's plus he was a jinchuriki so Minato had faith in his son's capabilities
As for mito she didn't think they would need any help so she didn't use Minato's kunai and that's the reason why she blames herself for his death
zx20000006 :- I don't understand why the shinobi council has the right to question why the hokage faked his son's death.Minato's the hokage and naruto is his son what justification does he need more than that and why does the council have the right to ask Naruto about his shinobi training or ask him to teach them hisjutsu that doesn't make sense at all.Minato as the hokage has the power to assign secret missions and covert operations without the council's knowledge as long as it doesn't put konoha in danger and I think faking his sons death inorder to give him time to heal and train to become stronger without the need to worry about assassins coming after him more than justifies a secret mission why does the council have so muchunnecessary power in this village especially since minato should be more competent than hiruzen
Ans :- you are correct in saying that Minato doesn't need anyone permission to fake his own sons death so that he could get time to heal but you will also have to understand that Naruto is the villagesjinchuriki and in this world jinchuriki are still viewed as tools of war and war deturants
Since Naruto's death the village had been in constant fear of an invasion form any of the other 4 great nations who still have their jinchurikis
That's the only reason that the counsel had the right to ask him questions because during this period kanoha was in danger of am invasion
And the line about them asking him to teach his jutsus was just humor
Naruto is not an idiot he is not going to teach someone a technique like mini rasenshuriken because they asked him family aside
gunzen :- dunno how but can naruto give back some semblance of power to kushina
Ans - he can but not right now i want Kushina to be weak right now for a crucial moment in Naruto's development further in this world
jaytheehokage :- Naruto is already an OP character so I think he should damn near be good at everything.Instead of the villain, I think it would make more sense to stick him in Anbu.It hides his identity and he doesn't need to be hated.Or probably take over as the spymaster so its rarely in the village.
Ans - not thought about it but thanks for the idea

" I don't know of any sure way through which we can reverse the petrification and get her arm back to normal but I have a few theories which we can try but we are going to need a few things "Naruto replied
" What do you want " jiraiya questioned raising his eyebrow
" Well for starters I want one of you to summon the toad sage fukasaku he has a staff through which he can remove the excess nature chakra from ones body "Naruto asked while looking at both minato jiraiya
As Naruto mentioned the staff both minato and jiraiya winced remembering the staff with which fukasaku used to beat them while they were training in senjutsu to attain sage mode
" What else do you need " minato questioned
" Do you know anyone other then tsunade who has a contract with lady katsuyu so that we can summon lady katsuyu and ask her for Tsunade's location." Naruto questioned not knowing whether Sakura had gained the slug summoning contract in this world or not
" Why would lady katsuyu know where tsunade sama is " mito questioned intreged
" Because when you sign a summoning contract with a summoning clan the summons gain a connection to there summoner's chakra and can always sense there chakra " Naruto answered
" Well mito here can summon lady katsuyu since tsunade gifted her the slug summoning contract on her 15th birthday " Kushina replied
" Wait you are a medical ninja " Naruto questioned mito surprised
" No I am not a medical ninja " mito replied looking away
" Then how did tsunade allow you to sign the slug contract " Naruto questioned mito now more intrigued then ever because he knew that tsunade didn't allow just anyone to sign the scroll
" Well she is not a medical ninja but since tsunade is her God mother she allowed her to sign the summoning scroll so that she can summon lady katsuyu in case of medical emergencies" Kushina replied
Deciding to ask later about it he looked at minato and said " summon fukasaku sama please "
As Naruto said that Minato went through the hand signs for summoning jutsu and slammed his hand on the floor
As soon as he did that a small puff of smoke occurred
And as the smoke cleared there standing was fukasaku one of the 2 great toad sages of mount myoboku
He was wearing a grey cape and had a black staff in his hand
Fukasaku looked at minato and said " Ah minato boy it's been a long time since you summoned me and I take it it's not a casual visit so what's going on "
" Well there is something in which we think your expertise may help us " Minato replied
As minato said that fukasaku turns around and sees that mito jiraiya Kushina are all present but the next person that he sees shock him
He looks at minato and asks " how is Naruto boy alive minato boy he is supposed to be dead his name vanished from the summoning scroll"
" It's not what you think fukasaku sama this is not the Naruto you knew he is from a diffrent world " minato replied
After thinking for a minute fukasaku said "Oh I see , so you must be the reason why the great toad elder had a dream once again,and he was talking about the child of prophecy breaking the boundaries of the world"
He then asked "tell me Naruto boy were you the child of prophecy in your world and did the prophecy come to pass as the great elder sage had predicted for your future "
"Yes I was the child of prophecy in my word and yes great elders sage did indeed predict my future and his given prophecy came to pass as well " Naruto replied
" What prophecy are you talking about paa" jiraiya questioned
" Now's not the time jiraiya boy i am sure when the time comes the great lord elder will inform all of us now why have you called me minato boy"
" The reason why I called you here is because of Kushina you see her arm turned to stone due to nature energy imbalance "as Minato said that fukasaku turned to looked at Kushina and indeed her right arm below her elbow which was holding Naruto's left hand had completed turned into stone (only Kushina's hand)
" How did this happen Kushina chan as far as I know after the nine tails incident you don't have enough chakra to be able to sense nature chakra let alone use it " fukasaku questioned
To which Kushina replied" I don't even know how to sense nature chakra let alone use it " confusion clear across her face
" Then how did this happen " fukasaku asked looking at all of them intreged
" Well we don't know how it happened but I have a theory since Mom was holding my hand while I was gathering nature chakra I think some of it seeped In to her arm which caused the change " Naruto said
" So you are a sage Naruto boy " to which Naruto replied in yes " can you enter your sage mode again Naruto boy "
" I can enter sage mode but if I do that wouldn't the petrification process start once again " Naruto questioned Fukasaku to which he replied "no the process will not start once again since her arm has already turned to stone "
As fukasaku said that Naruto closed his eyes and opened his senses to the nature chakra flowing all around them and within seconds he was in sage mode with his new markings
Fukasaku was amazed seeing the sheer amount of nature chakra Naruto had gathered and how fast he was able to enter sage mode
Meanwhile as he was observing the way Naruto entered sage mode he understood the reason why Kushina's arm had turned into stone
" Well Naruto boy I must say you are quite a powerful sage at such a young age and you appear to be quite proficient in using sage mode and I think I know the reason why Kushina's arm turned tostone
As fukasaku said that Naruto exited his sage mode and was about to ask why but mito beat him to it
" Why " mito questioned
" It's because of Naruto boy's senjutsu that her arm turned into stone, Kushina's body did not absorb nature chakra it got overwhelmed by it " fukasaku replies
" What do you mean by that I have used senjutsu before when someone was holding my hands or was in contact with me but there bodies did not turn to stone so why did mom's body react in such a way "Naruto asked confused and Inside Naruto's mindscape kurama who was also watching through Naruto's eyes looked confused from what fukasaku said
" Well as I said it is because of the way you are using nature chakra Naruto boy tell me have you always used senjutsu this way " to which Naruto replied yes "without having signed any summoning contract " fukasaku asked further
" Well no before coming to this world I had signed the summoning contract for the toads of mount myoboku and my sage mode markings were also diffrent before I had toad like eyes and an orange pigmentsurrounded them but after comming to this world my sage mode markings changed "
" So what I had anticipated is true you see the reason why Kushina' s body reacted differently then others is because of the way you are using nature chakra right now Naruto boy " fukasaku said
" What do you mean by that paa, how is Naruto's way of using senjutsu is different from the way I and minato uses it " jiraya question
" You see, jiraiya boy the reason lies in the blood contract
When a person signs a summoning contract with their blood their chakra gets binded with the summoning clan so that they can summon anyone from the clan when they need help
But that is not the only thing that the blood contract do
The blood contract also makes it that if the summoner is using nature chakra then the senjutsu chakra produced is bounded to the users body only so that it can be more effective in battle
But Naruto boy hear does not have any blood contract bounding the senjutsu chakra produced inside his body to itself and since Kushina was holding his arm while he was collecting nature chakra shealso got effected
Kushina here was quite lucky since her body does not have enough Chakra to be a active ninja otherwise she would be stone statue by now " fukasaku explained
Hearing what fukasaku said everyone was in shock including Naruto he did not know that using senjutsu without having any animal contract could be this volatile
Now that he thinks about it his sage mode markings does resemble the markings he saw of the first hokage's face during the forth great shinobi war and if his guess was correct the first hokage alsodid not possess any summoning contract
Kurama who was also listening said to Naruto "I think that explains why she was effected while you were collecting nature chakra you will have to do some practice to mantain your existing control over nature chakra
Naruto nodded his head listening to kurama
"So will you be able to reverse the petrification of and get her arm back to normal using that staff of yours " minato questioned hope in his voice
" Well I am sorry to say this Minato boy but if the petrification was still in process i could have removed all the nature chakra from her system but since her arm has already turned to stone i amunable to do anything " fukasaku said in sad tone
Hearing this all of them were shocked and were feeling hopeless specially mito who was looking angerly at Naruto "you see what you have done you have just came into our life and you destroyed my mother's arm i don't even what to think what will happen if you stay with is forever "
What mito said to Naruto shocked all of them especially Minato and Kushina they did not expect mito to say something like that
They know that she is a bit of a hot head but to hear her say something like that really shocked both of them
As for Naruto he didn't say anything because he understood from where mito was coming from
He can see that mito loved her mother very much and if his own mother was alive in his world and something like this happened to her he would also blam the person responsible and say hertfull thing
So he just closed his eyes and kept his head down
Seeing and mito was about to say something else Kushina interrupted and said in an angry tone "Mito uzumaki you will not talk to your brother like that it was not his fault that this happened how should he have known that something like this would happen it was my fault that I was holding hishand while he was using senjutsu"
Naruto was shocked seeing that this version of his mom whom he had just met half an hour ago was defending him against her daughter whom she had known for 16 years
It really moved him he has never known the love of a mother all his life
The only memory of his real mother that he had was of the time when he had met her inside his seal and the breef moments he had spent with her
Naruto looked up at mito and said " i know that you hold me responsible for your mother's condition and i don't blame you
if something like this would have happened to my real mother I would also say something like this to the responsible person but I don't have any parents while growing up so I don't know how aparents love feels " hearing this mito was also shocked she didn't know that he was an orphan but Naruto continued "but don't you worry your mother will be fine i promise you that she will have her arm back it's a promise of a life time
