Naruto: I'm Nine-Tails and My Host is Kushina

The Power of the Nine-Tails

Kushina still vividly remembered what the Nine-Tails had once told her.

"If I'm in a good mood, you can use my power."

As a Jinchūriki, Kushina had never actively wielded the immense power sealed within her. Even during her previous training, when she had fought Tsunade for the bell test, it was Kurama—the Nine-Tails himself—who had intervened of his own accord. But now, he had decided that the time had come. Kushina needed to familiarize herself with his power.

Standing in front of the massive fox, she clenched her fists tightly, her violet eyes filled with anticipation. Kurama's deep, knowing gaze locked onto hers before he released a shadow of his red chakra. The dense, fiery energy surged forward, wrapping around her body before fusing directly into her core. An intricate Uzumaki spiral manifested on her abdomen, marking the connection.

In an instant, her entire body became engulfed in golden flames.

This was the embodiment of the Nine-Tails' chakra.

Kushina stared at her hands, astonishment written all over her face. She had become a living beacon, glowing like a miniature sun in the darkness.

"This is... incredible!"

This form was known as the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, In the future, Naruto would attain this power through the combined guidance of Killer Bee and his mother, but Kushina had reached this state through her own willpower and her complete bond with Kurama.

Her speed, she realized, had increased exponentially. In this state, she could rival the Raikage in sheer velocity. The chakra itself pulsed with warmth, brimming with boundless energy.

She took a step forward, and in the blink of an eye, she reappeared meters away. A sharp intake of breath escaped her lips—the power was intoxicating.

Moreover, she could now sense malice. It was as if an invisible veil had been lifted from her perception, allowing her to feel the negative emotions around her, a trait unique to the Nine-Tails' chakra.

Kurama's deep voice rumbled in her mind. "So, Kushina, how does it feel?"

A wide grin spread across her face. "This is amazing, Kurama! I will love you till death!"

Kurama scoffed but allowed a faint smirk to tug at the corners of his massive maw. "Hmph. Don't get too carried away. This is only the beginning. Does the power feel overwhelming?"

Kushina shook her head, her wild red hair swaying with the movement. "Nope! No matter how much power you give me, I can handle it."

Unlike Naruto, who was only a half-blood Uzumaki, Kushina was a pureblood. Her immense chakra reserves made her uniquely suited to withstand Kurama's power in its entirety.

Kurama let out a low chuckle. "Then let's take this further. Experience the transformation from One-Tail to full Nine-Tails."

The golden glow around her shifted into a sinister crimson. A bubbling aura formed around her body, thick and ominous. One tail sprouted from her back, then another, and another. By the time she reached Four-Tails, the corrosive chakra darkened her skin, giving her a demonic, fox-like form.

At this stage, even Orochimaru's Kusanagi blade wouldn't be able to pierce her .

At Six-Tails, a skeletal structure formed around her frame, reinforcing her transformation. She could feel the primal fury, the raw destruction begging to be unleashed. But she held firm, reveling in the sheer power coursing through her veins.

By the time she reached the complete Nine-Tails state, she towered over the land, her body a mirror image of Kurama himself.

Kushina let out a deep breath, her heartbeat thunderous in her ears. "Damn, Kurama... you're too powerful."

Kurama grinned. "And this isn't even my final form."

Kushina's eyes widened. "Wait, there's more?!"

"Indeed. You haven't yet entered that Mode." His voice was low, almost teasing. "That's the true Perfect Jinchūriki state. In that form, I will expand into pure chakra, manifesting as a complete entity alongside you."

Kushina's fingers curled into a fist. The idea of reaching such a level thrilled her. But she knew better than to get ahead of herself.

Kurama's voice softened. "However, listen to me carefully, Kushina. Do not let the higher-ups in Konoha know that you have become a Perfect Jinchūriki."

Kushina's playful demeanor shifted. Her expression turned sharp. "Yeah, I understand. I won't let them know."

For now, she would only inform the Third Hokage and the others that she was gradually mastering portions of the Nine-Tails' power. After all, she was the inheritor of the "Will of Fire." She would protect Konoha—but not under the command of its corrupt elite.

She would protect the village by standing above them all.

And she owed it all to Kurama.

Meanwhile, in the high council chambers of Konoha, a crucial meeting was taking place.

The Third Hokage sat at the head of the table, flanked by Danzo, Homura, and Koharu. The future of the village was the topic of discussion.

Hiruzen Sarutobi leaned back, puffing on his pipe with satisfaction. "Danzo, as you can see, we didn't need ANBU to monitor her. We concealed her status as a Jinchūriki, let her integrate into the academy like a normal student, and now the results speak for themselves."

Danzo scoffed, arms crossed. "Tch."

Much as he hated to admit it, Kushina's current performance was proof that the Third Hokage's approach had worked.

Hiruzen's smile widened at Danzo's silence. He loved moments like these—when Danzo was forced to acknowledge his methods as superior.

"Hiruzen, don't be careless," Danzo finally bit out. "That Uzumaki girl has yet to fully control the Nine-Tails' power."

"Why are you so anxious about that?" Hiruzen exhaled another puff of smoke, unbothered. "Even Lady Mito never mastered the Nine-Tails entirely. Kushina still has time. The important thing is that she belongs to Konoha—not to you, Danzo."

Danzo's single visible eye twitched. "Hiruzen, you—"

"Hiruzen you Will Regret it" Danzo shouted

"Danzo I'm Hokage "Hiruzen added

"Humpph--"

Hiruzen waved a dismissive hand. "Relax, Danzo. Have some faith."

This was the daily routine in the council: Danzo and Hiruzen butting heads. And truth be told, Hiruzen rather enjoyed it.

Danzo had always been his rival, his shadow counterpart, and the greatest thorn in his side. But in a strange way, their antagonism had become a fundamental part of his life.

Still, regardless of Danzo's paranoia, Hiruzen felt proud. Konoha was thriving. The "Will of Fire" was alive and strong. And with Kushina growing into her role, the village would only become stronger.

Little did he know, Kushina was already steps ahead of him.

Her loyalty was to the village, yes.

But her trust in its leadership?

That was a different matter entirely.

And soon, Konoha would realize just how much power their Jinchūriki truly wielded
