"How's this power?"
"Try it and you'll know." Kushina casually tossed the "Little Boy" into the depths of the cave.
"Huh?" Naruto sensed something was wrong and quickly tried to stop her, "Dad said not to use it in..."
Unfortunately, it was too late.
"Rumble!" Amidst the explosion, Naruto's last words barely reached Kushina's ears, "...use the Tailed Beast Ball here..."
Then came a series of earth-shattering tremors.
Naruto reacted quickly, immediately taking Kushina away before the cave collapsed.
...
In the Hokage Office, Minato looked at the mother and son standing before him with a headache.
"So you really blew up that mountain?"
"Hahaha..." Kushina said with an embarrassed laugh, "Blew it up, but not completely. The mountain is still there, it's just that the cave is gone."
However, if Naruto didn't know the Flying Thunder God Technique, they might have really had to blow up the mountain to get out.
What could Minato do? He could only forgive them, saying helplessly, "Alright, let's find another place to train."
The family of three arrived in a huge basement. Minato said, "This used to be a Root training base, but it's abandoned now. Let's set up a barrier and use this as a training ground."
"Okay." Kushina responded and started working with Minato.
Naruto took a look and realized he seemed to know how to do this. After all, he was once a Sealing Technique expert who sealed the Three Legendary Sannin Jiraiya with a Cotton Quilt, so he went to help too.
Soon, the barrier was set up, its purpose being to conceal the activity here and prevent anyone from accidentally intruding. It was best not to casually display the power of their family's nuclear weapon.
Before leaving, Minato repeatedly instructed, "This time, absolutely no more Tailed Beast Balls."
"Mhm, mhm, mhm." The mother and son nodded like chicks pecking at rice, their movements perfectly synchronized, which was quite amusing.
In the Sealing Space, Naruto, following Kushina's instructions, opened the door, "Let's start, Big Fox."
"Alright!" The Orange Nine Tails smiled happily as he looked at the open door. Whether I go out or not is one thing, whether you lock the door is another. The moment the door opened, the Orange Nine Tails and the Red Nine Tails quietly connected:
"If this family has a long enough lifespan, I'd be willing to stay with them for another thousand years."
...
A day of training passed, and the progress was smooth. It was just that the Fox Spirit's attitude made Naruto very confused.
During the training, Naruto bounced and pranced on his back, almost dancing a Gokuraku Jodo, and he didn't even get angry.
But although he didn't know why, lying on the Big Fox's back was really comfortable.
In the afternoon, Naruto and Kushina went home to wash away the sweat and dust, changed their clothes, and went to the Hokage Office to pick up Kimimaro from the hospital with Minato, who had just gotten off work.
Minato was downstairs handling the paperwork, while Kushina and Naruto went straight upstairs to the ward.
Naruto pushed open the door and found that the room seemed a bit crowded.
The most conspicuous were three melon-headed kids who had just handed flowers to Karin—you can't judge a book by its cover, these three seemingly simple-minded guys were surprisingly polite, even knowing to bring flowers when visiting the sick.
If they hadn't given a thumbs-up after greeting each other, flashing their naturally luminescent teeth, Naruto's impression of them would have changed.
Karin thanked them politely and arranged the three bouquets of flowers the bowl-cut heads had brought, then ran to Kushina and grabbed her hand.
Kimimaro was leaning against the bed, flipping through a book, and greeted Kushina and Naruto with a smile when he saw them enter.
Haku was sitting by the bed, using an ice blade to peel an apple—he used this Ninjutsu very well and practically.
Naruto watched Haku finish peeling, leaned over and took a bite, feeling a cool sensation, then got a tap on the head from Kushina.
Haku smiled and cut the apple in half, handing the half Naruto had bitten directly to Naruto, and the other half to Kimimaro.
Naruto munched on the apple, watching the ice blade dissipate in Haku's hand, and asked, "Can you make a sword for me?"
"What kind of sword?"
Naruto roughly described it.
Haku made a long sword, then, under Naruto's direction, modified it again and again.
The others watched Naruto mess around, not understanding what he was doing.
When Minato came in, he saw Naruto wielding a cool ice sword, laughing and saying something about Frostmourne, the filial son's sword.
Minato raised two fingers, pinching the ice sword that was about to cut his bangs, while thinking that the name Frostmourne was good, and if he used wind-attribute nature transformation, could he make a Wind-Joy?
The group of nine walked out of the hospital in a grand manner. The three bowl-cut heads declined the Minato family's dinner invitation, saying that Youth did not allow for slackness, and the evening was also a time when men should sweat.
On the way, Naruto gave Frostmourne to Konohamaru, whose eyes were shining when he saw the cool sword, and casually said:
"This is a treasure sword that even the Fourth Hokage has to defend seriously. Go, Laifu, go challenge your grandfather. Before Frostmourne melts, he will grant you power!"
Then, under the envious gaze of his two little partners, Udon and Moegi, Konohamaru grinned foolishly and ran home.
"Is this really okay?" Haku, who provided the murder weapon, hesitated. Wasn't he helping a villain to do evil?
Naruto didn't care and explained to Haku, who didn't know the situation, "This kid's usual pranks are much more powerful than an ice sword. Anyway, he can't reach Third Hokage. Let him make a fuss and let the old man exercise his body, which is also good."
Naruto looked up and asked, "Dad, aren't Pervy Sage and Tsunade coming today?"
"Well, they still have some things to do. Let's have a good gathering after the Chunin Exams in two days."
"I want to go camping." Naruto had never experienced picnics and camping—he wanted to do it last time in the Death Forest, but unfortunately, his teammates didn't agree.
"Sure, I know a good place. Speaking of which, that place was created by me and him together." Minato smiled and pointed to Naruto's stomach.
"When did you guys cooperate?" Kushina wondered, When did my husband find this Fox Spirit behind my back?
Minato explained, and Naruto suddenly understood.
It turned out that one night twelve years ago, the Nine Tails wanted to light a big firework on the Hokage Rock to celebrate Naruto's birth, but Minato said that it did not comply with the regulations on the safety management of fireworks and firecrackers, so he transferred it to the distant mountains, and not only blasted a big pit but also blasted out a water vein.
Internationally, this behavior is called the Russian-style reservoir opening method.
Later, someone renovated it and connected it to the river, and there was an artificial lake... a Fox-made lake?
In short, Konoha had such a scenic 5A-level attraction with mountains and rivers nearby. If the origin of this place was hyped up, it might be full during the Golden Week.
Everyone had no objection, so Naruto said, "Then it's settled!"
Thinking about the exam the day after tomorrow, Naruto made up his mind—
Anyone who interferes with our family's camping trip must die.
