8. Naruto’s Kyūbi Mode

When Naruto trained to control the Kyūbi’s chakra under Killer Bee’s guidance, he entered his subconscious and unlocked the seal that imprisoned the Kyūbi within his body. Bee and Hachibi assisted Naruto in the battle to extract the Kyūbi’s chakra, though their efforts ultimately failed. Hachibi and Bee provided one final defense to protect Naruto from Kurama’s Bijūdama.

Naruto then activated Sage Mode and fought Kurama alone. He used Chō Ōdama Rasengan as a diversionary attack. When Kurama struck Naruto with his hand, it turned out to be just a Kage Bunshin trick. Thanks to this strategy, the real Naruto, positioned behind Kurama, managed to grab his tail and slam him to the ground. Naruto followed up with a Rasengan Shuriken, leaving Kurama weakened.

When Naruto attempted to absorb the Kyūbi’s chakra for himself, Kurama retaliated by trying to absorb Naruto’s chakra. As his chakra was rapidly drained by Kurama, Naruto almost succumbed to the Kyūbi’s overwhelming hatred.

However, fate was on Naruto’s side. Minato, his father, had previously infused Kushina’s chakra into the Kyūbi’s sealing formula. Because of this, Kushina, Naruto’s mother, was able to appear in Naruto’s subconscious to help him master the Kyūbi’s power in line with Minato’s plan.

Using Kushina’s Adamantine Sealing Chains to bind Kurama, Naruto created hundreds of Kage Bunshin, each preparing a barrage of Rasengan to strike Kurama. Despite this, Kurama managed to fend off the attack and even broke free from the chains. However, Kushina quickly restrained Kurama’s legs with the chains, causing him to slip and fall.

Naruto then re-entered Sage Mode and instructed his remaining Kage Bunshin to enhance their Rasengan into Chō Ōdama Rasengan. The flurry of Chō Ōdama Rasengan hit Kurama, sending him flying. As the final blow, Naruto ended Kurama’s resistance with a Rasengan Shuriken, successfully extracting the Kyūbi’s chakra with the help of his clones.

Naruto’s Kyūbi Mode transformation was characterized by a brilliant golden chakra aura with stylish tomoe markings on his body. His pupils turned yellow, while his human form remained intact but was enveloped in bright yellow chakra.

#Abilities of Kyūbi Mode:

a. Life Energy:

The Kyūbi Mode’s chakra resonated with Yamato’s wood element, causing branches and leaves to grow. When Naruto attacked White Zetsu, who was made of Hashirama’s DNA, Zetsu would transform into trees upon contact.

b. Evil and Hatred Detection:

Naruto’s Kyūbi Mode could sense malicious energy, similar to the abilities of Mito Uzumaki, Hashirama’s wife.

While in Kumogakure’s temple, Naruto was able to detect Kinkaku’s Kyūbi chakra from afar, even though the temple was protected by a barrier that blocked chakra detection from both inside and outside.

Additionally, Naruto’s Kyūbi Mode could sense Kisame’s presence despite Kisame concealing his chakra within Samehada, which was carried by Bee. Even sensory-type shinobi like Shee from Kumogakure failed to detect Kisame, who was hiding within Samehada.

Moreover, Naruto’s Kyūbi Mode could detect disguised White Zetsu, who could perfectly mimic the appearance and chakra of Shinobi Alliance members. This ability helped expose Zetsu impostors who had infiltrated the ranks, preventing further ambushes and unnecessary internal conflicts.

c. Speed Comparable to Minato:

Naruto managed to dodge a top-speed attack from Ay, the Fourth Raikage, who intended to eliminate him. Naruto became the second person ever to dodge Ay’s fastest strike, the first being Minato, his father.

d. Tremendous Strength:

Kyūbi Mode significantly enhanced Naruto’s signature jutsu, Rasengan and Kage Bunshin. Naruto no longer needed to limit the number of Rasengan Shuriken he threw, as he could launch them repeatedly.

Additionally, Naruto could manipulate the Kyūbi’s chakra to create six additional arms, allowing him to form multiple Rasengan simultaneously and unleash combined attacks.

Naruto was also able to send Kage Bunshin to every Shinobi Alliance division on the battlefield, making them invaluable assets in combat. Even Dodai, a Kumogakure shinobi, prioritized the safety of Naruto’s Kage Bunshin over the lives of other shinobi during Madara’s meteor strike. This demonstrated how much the Shinobi Alliance relied on Naruto’s clones.

Furthermore, Naruto’s Kage Bunshin saved Dodai and other shinobi from Madara’s subsequent attacks. By using hundreds of Kage Bunshin, Naruto was able to counter Madara’s Mokuton: Jukai Kōtan with Ōdama Rasengan Tairengan, launching a simultaneous barrage of powerful Rasengan.
