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

Several years have passed since the Second Great Ninja War.

The shinobi villages across the five great nations have undergone vast developments, preparing for the inevitable conflict ahead.

Tensions are rising, and whispers of war echo through the lands. Among the five great villages, Sunagakure of the Land of Wind and Kumogakure of the Land of Lightning harbor the greatest hostility toward Konohagakure.

Sunagakure, plagued by economic struggles and scarce resources, finds itself at the bottom compared to the other four great nations. The mysterious death of Bunpuku, the former Jinchūriki of the One-Tails, has only exacerbated their desperation.

The Sand Shinobi cannot afford to wait for their decline—they seek war as a means of survival. Their target is none other than the Land of Fire, home to Konoha.

Last time, the Third Hokage had sent a battalion to challenge the Land of Wind, only for them to be decimated by Sunagakure's forces. This emboldened the Third Kazekage, who now thirsts for another taste of conquest.

The Sand shinobi are growing more active along the borders of the Land of Fire, fully prepared for another war.

Kumogakure, a village renowned for its militaristic nature and expansionist ideology, still holds a deep grudge against Konoha.

Their previous attempt to capture Uzumaki Kushina, a rare individual with a powerful chakra lineage, had ended in failure. Even the Sharingan they were so close to obtaining was lost, all due to one man—Namikaze Minato.

Cloud Shinobi do not forget their debts.

Kumogakure, like Sunagakure, has set its sights on Konoha. But their aggression does not stop there. They also bear hostility toward Iwagakure, the Village Hidden in the Stones. The Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, has never trusted the Cloud Shinobi. Treaties mean little in the face of ambition. The alliance between nations is nothing more than a piece of paper, easily torn apart at the whims of war.

The Land of Wind, the Land of Fire, the Land of Lightning, and the Land of Earth are all on the brink of battle. Even the Land of Water, isolated and enigmatic, cannot escape the tides of war. Though the surface appears calm, the undercurrents of destruction surge beneath. Each nation is bolstering its forces, training its shinobi for the Third Great Ninja War, which could ignite at any moment.

Konoha Village, Land of Fire

For now, there is a fleeting peace in Konoha. But everyone knows this is merely the calm before the storm.

Inside a modest yet well-kept room, a young woman with vibrant red hair sat on her bed, her sharp eyes fixed intently on the figure before her. Uzumaki Kushina, one of Konoha's most remarkable kunoichi, was captivated by the sight before her.

Kurama, sat cross-legged on her bed, his expression serene yet commanding. His golden fur gleamed under the dim light, his eyes—normally a deep, menacing crimson—now radiated an otherworldly glow.

Kushina found herself mesmerized.

"Damn, Kurama's face is way too good-looking!" she murmured to herself, nearly entranced by the sheer power and grace he exuded.

Kurama took a deep breath, his body absorbing the natural energy around him. His pupils shifted, no longer the mere slitted eyes of a beast but something far more profound. Cross-shaped irises formed within his gaze—a symbol of his connection to Sage Mode.

As the embodiment of chakra, the Nine-Tails had no need to train extensively like humans did. Natural energy came to him effortlessly.

In the distant future, Naruto and Sasuke would clash in a battle that shook the world. In that fight, it was Kurama who had absorbed the natural energy of the earth, empowering Naruto with the strength to counter Sasuke's Indra Arrow.

Now, Kurama was merely refining that ability. He could feel it coursing through his being, enhancing his already godlike strength.

As a sensory-type kunoichi, Kushina quickly noticed something strange—she could no longer sense Kurama's chakra. It had expanded far beyond her comprehension, vast and endless like the sea itself.

" Kurama, you're so incredible!" Kushina's voice brimmed with admiration.

Kurama smirked. "It's nothing special, Kushina. I still have a long way to go."

But just then, a system notification echoed in his mind. A familiar interface materialized before him, displaying a status screen:

Host: Kurama (Nine-Tails)

Sex: Male

Fusion Power: Nine-Tails Chakra, Uzumaki Bloodline, One-Tails Chakra, Sage Chakra, Natural Energy, etc.

Ninjutsu: Flying Thunder God, Tailed Beast Bomb, advanced sealing techniques, etc.

[Host's power requires further balance. The system recommends integrating the Uchiha clan's abilities. Please select from the following options:]

[Option 1: Uchiha Mikoto - Mangekyō Sharingan, Advanced Fire Release, Illusion Techniques]

[Option 2: Uchiha Tenzou - Three-Tomoe Sharingan, Basic Genjutsu, Standard Fire Release]

[Option 3: Uchiha Fugaku - Three-Tomoe Sharingan (Potential to Awaken Mangekyō), Genjutsu, Fire Release]

Kurama's gaze darkened slightly as he pondered the choices. Among the current Uchiha, only Mikoto had already awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan. Her ocular technique, Void serverance and divine reversion , intrigued him.

He had invested his time in helping her awaken it—and now it was time to reap the rewards.

Without hesitation, he selected Option 1.

Fugaku? Tenzou? He had no interest in fusing with men.

Kurama was many things, but he was no fool—and he certainly wasn't going to merge with another guy.

When he shared his decision with Kushina, she giggled mischievously. " Kurama, are you planning to make a move on Mikoto? What if she doesn't agree?"

Kurama rolled his eyes. "Make a move? This isn't about romance. This is about collecting what I've earned."

Kushina, however, wasn't convinced. "Come on, have you seen yourself? No woman in their right mind would refuse you."

Kurama raised a brow, amused. "Oh? And does that include you, Kushina?"

Kushina's cheeks flushed red, but instead of backing down, she smirked. "Who knows? Maybe I wouldn't mind sharing~"

A playful chuckle rumbled in Kurama's chest. "You really are a handful."

For a moment, Kushina found herself lost in thought, her mind wandering to a rather interesting image—a scenario where both she and Mikoto lay curled up against Kurama's massive tails, enveloped in his warmth.

She quickly shook the thought away, biting her lip. Damn it, girl! Get a grip!

But deep down, she couldn't help but feel excited. If nothing else, things were about to get a lot more interesting.

The storm of war loomed over the horizon, and amidst the chaos, personal battles of a different nature would unfold as well.
