-16 years ago, the truth unveiled
(Naruto looks dumfounded as Kushina tells him the bitter truth.)
Naruto: “you… You were a host too, and the Fox’s host no less? (Naruto then has a displeased look on his face.) I can’t believe my mom too.”
Kushina: “That’s right. The incident 16 years ago revolves around one of Konoha’s darkest histories. Where it all began, was the Whirlpool Country, where I was born and lived until I was a little girl and was shipped to Konoha.”
Naruto: “The Whirlpool? What does that have to do with you being a HOST!?”
Kushina: “Patience! The Whirlpool, a small country situated Southeast of Fire Country. It lied in the midst whirlpools, thus the name. It was a forgotten territory only known to Konoha.
Naruto: “This place must be special if only Konoha knew about this place.”
Kushina: “Actually, the Whirlpool Country is providence to the Fire Country, and later became territory to Konoha through the course of history. I rather not give you too much of a history lesson, that’s what Kakashi’s for.”
(Naruto sighs.)
Naruto: “Gee, thanks mom.”
Kushina: “The Whirlpool wasn’t your ordinary place, in retrospect; it is much like the island that you are all on in Kumogakure. It is a secret place, shrouded in mystery. Only those of the high brass in Konoha can claim to know about the Whirlpool Country.”
Naruto: “How come?” (Kushina then makes a devilish face as she utters the next sentence.)
Kushina: “Because it was the main base of experimentation and the whirlpools surrounding the country was actually some kind of defensive mechanism set up to defend the place from intruders; only the ones who know the secret can advance.” (Naruto has a worried face on, he then holds his mouth in fear.)
Naruto: “And you lived there, mom?”
Kushina: “I think you can pretty much put the pieces together. I am Konoha’s first successful experimental host project.”
