Summary
Naruto continues his tailed beast training with B. As he attempts to transform into the Nine-Tails he fails, assuming a chibi-version of the beast. With this the Eight-Tails explains the mechanism behind transforming into a tailed beast and the cooperation required from both parties to do so. B tells Naruto that this might pose a problem as he wouldn't be able to use the Tailed Beast Ball. Moving on with the training nonetheless, B decides to build on the techniques Naruto could perform. Showing them his Rasengan in his Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, B is shocked to see that Naruto's technique was an application of the Tailed Beast Ball. Telling Naruto this, B enquires who taught him that technique and upon hearing that it was created by the Fourth Hokage: Minato Namikaze, B wonders whether this was fate.

Using Fū and Torune as sacrifices, Kabuto complies and elaborate on the technique before taking off to a isolated area.
