Minato's originally pure blue eyes were now gradually filled with scarlet.
Every time, whenever he used too much of the Nine-Tails' chakra beyond his own limit, the aura of the tailed beast hidden in his body would be exposed.
This is also the most powerful way to explain the situation to Kushina, because the Nine-Tails is sealed in her body.
There was a deep look of horror on Kushina's face, and at the same time it was full of disbelief.
She subconsciously pressed her hand on her abdomen, where the Nine-Tailed Fox was sealed.
Although she was sealed with it, Kushina could also sense the shock of the Nine-Tailed Fox in her body.
"Minato, why is there the Nine-Tails' chakra in your body?" Kushina couldn't help but exclaim.
"This power is brought by another me."
Minato said as his extremely astonishing chakra fluctuations, which caused the air around him to vibrate, quickly absorbed back into his body.
The scarlet color in his eyes also faded away.
"Over the years, I have been in danger several times, and it was because of it that I was able to get through it."
After saying that, Minato looked at Kushina, and the disbelief in her eyes was gradually disappearing.
After all, this chakra that was truly displayed in front of Kushina forced her to believe the truth of what Minato said before.
"What is going on?" Kushina suddenly stretched out her hands, grabbed Minato, and asked anxiously.
Minato's eyes were filled with mixed emotions as he said, "The reason why the other me is here is because of you."
"Me?" Kushina was startled.
"Um!"
Minato nodded firmly. At this moment, his thoughts were completely synchronized with the older Minato in his body. Two souls, using one body, explained to Kushina the secret he had hidden for more than ten years.
"Remember the first day you came to Konoha, when I beat Akasaka Yu?"
"..."
Minato stared into Kushina's eyes intently and explained the whole story to her.
The reason why Minato became violent and attacked Akasaka Yu contrary to his usual behavior was because, in his subconscious mind, he would never allow anyone to hurt Kushina again.
The shock on Kushina's face never left, but she listened carefully to everything Minato said now.
From the night the Nine-Tails attacked Konoha to Minato performing the Reaper Death Seal, spanning time and space, rebirth, and everything that happened afterwards.
There are many details in it. Even though Kushina has been with Minato all the time, she doesn't know how much Minato has paid without her knowing.
By the end of the story, Kushina had thrown herself into Minato's arms, crying uncontrollably.
"Why are you so stupid? You don't have to die, just so that I can see the grown-up Naruto, for that short period of time."
Kushina kept crying and said that what she said now was exactly the same as what she said that night.
Feeling the person in his arms trembling, Minato held her arms even tighter.
Minato whispered softly in Kushina's ear, but his voice was trembling slightly as he said, "Compared to everything you have done for me, what I have done is so insignificant."
"If it weren't for you, how would I have another chance to hold you tightly like I am now!"
It was Kushina who gave him a second life, and it was also Kushina who gave him the opportunity to be a husband and a father here.
"I'm sorry for keeping it from you for so long."
Minato said apologetically, just like Kushina said, there were no secrets between them.
But for some reason, he had to keep it secret until now.
"I understand, I understand everything." In his arms, Kushina shook her head.
Starting over again in life seems simple, but for Minato, there has always been a heavy burden on his heart.
Because he wants to change, wants to turn all imperfections into perfection.
Kushina couldn't fully imagine the difficulty and danger involved.
She knew in her heart many years ago that Minato would give everything for her.
But this feeling still exceeded her expectations.
It spanned time and space.
Kushina finally understood why Minato sometimes became abnormally dazed when they were young.
Even though this memory was sealed, that endless love was already imprinted in Minato's soul.
The two hugged each other for a long time, and it was only after a long time that Kushina's mood gradually calmed down.
"So, there is a Nine-Tailed Fox in your body as well?"
After calming down, Kushina was quite curious, because as the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki, she herself possessed powerful perception abilities, so she was unusually sensitive to the Nine-Tails' chakra.
But she had been with Minato day and night for so many years, and although there were some subtle feelings between them, they were not obvious.
"Well, to be exact, it should be half of the Nine-Tailed Fox."
Minato said, what was happening to his body was something even he couldn't fully explain.
His state is similar to that of a Jinchūriki, but it is more ingenious than that of a Jinchūriki.
Because no matter how powerful the seal on the Jinchūriki's body is, there is always a risk of it being broken.
Once the seal is broken, the tailed beast will deprive the Jinchūriki of their consciousness and be resurrected.
But inside Minato's body, the Nine-Tails' consciousness was still lingering on and had not dissipated.
If he wanted to use the power of the Nine-Tails, he wouldn't have to compete with the tailed beast.
In some ways, Minato himself is a more perfect Jinchūriki than Killer Bee of the Kumogakure Village.
If this were not the case, he would not have been able to develop the Rasengan Shuriken at the age of ten.
The record set by Minato is now regarded as a legend by countless people in the ninja world.
But only he himself knows that it is not because he is so talented that no one can compare to him.
Rather, it is the result of a lifetime of experience.
Of course, the Nine-Tailed Fox inside Kushina's body also heard everything. Even with its long life and experience, it was difficult to explain the situation happening to Minato.
"Even the old man..."
Kyuubi thought to himself that even the Sage of Six Paths of the past would not have imagined that such a power existed in this world.
"Can the other self inside you hear what I am saying to you now?" Kushina asked, tilting her head.
"Of course." Minato nodded.
"To be honest, I'm still not used to this kind of situation."
Kushina rolled her eyes upwards, rubbed her chin, and finished her words with that strange gesture.
Minato chuckled at the sight.
After saying all these things, he now feels relieved.
Kushina in front of him pondered for a while, then suddenly stared at Minato and asked curiously.
"By the way, Minato, why did you suddenly decide to tell me all this today?"
