The Shinobi World

On the night of Naruto Uzumaki’s birth, a sinister plan unfolds in the shadows. Obito Uchiha, now fully operating under the alias of Madara, infiltrates Konohagakure and exploits the vulnerability of Kushina Uzumaki—the village’s jinchūriki—as she gives birth, knowing that the seal containing the Nine-Tails (Kurama) weakens during childbirth. In a swift and brutal ambush, Obito kills the midwives, incapacitates Minato Namikaze, and extracts the beast, unleashing it upon the village. Chaos erupts as the Nine-Tails rampages through Konoha, leveling entire districts and slaughtering countless shinobi. Minato and Kushina fight desperately to protect their newborn son and the village, ultimately sacrificing their lives to seal the Nine-Tails within their infant child, splitting its chakra in two—Yang sealed within Naruto, and Yin sealed with Minato in the afterlife. As he dies, Minato entrusts Naruto with the hope of the future and the will of fire.
