Naruto manages to defeat the Nine Tails and extract its chakra before imprisoning the monster in a new seal, promising to set things right with the tailed beast. Revealing that Minato gave her time, Kushina decides to give Naruto the full story about the Nine Tails attack on the Hidden Leaf Village. She begins by revealing herself as the previous Nine Tails Jinchuriki from the Hidden Whirlpool Village, a close ally of the Hidden Leaf Village that was destroyed as others feared her people's powerful sealing techniques. Kushina then explains that the seal on the female Jinchuriki wavers during their pregnancy, having been moved to a secret location along with Minato, the Third Hokage's wife, Biwako Sarutobi, a medi-nin named Taji, and an ANBU team. But the ANBU are all killed by Tobi as he infiltrates the venue.
