You're starting to act more like a Jinchuriki, aren't you boy? [To Yamato] That's why he was chosen to be your watchdog yes? Seems some of my experiments came in handy after all. Honestly the Leaf Village really ought to be a bit more grateful to me. Wouldn't you agree, my darling little test subject?
Test subject? Who exactly is this guy?
Years ago when I still walked among the fools of the Hidden Leaf Village, I sought the power of the Shinobi who was not only the ultimate wood style ninjutsu master, but also the one who had total control over tailed beasts, the First Hokage. I extracted some DNA samples from the First's remains and conducted an experiment, implanting genetic components into the cells of 60 worthy children. But their bodies violently rejected the treatment. They perished in rapid succession one after another. Just as I was closing the book on the subject, someone stumbled onto one of my other experiments. I was forced to flee, leaving my laboratory exactly as it was. I thought all the test subjects had succumbed. I never dreamed there'd be any survivors.
How fascinating. We're looking at the end result of your work all those years ago. You can observe the fruits of your labor.
There's no question he's intriguing. But I wonder more about Sasuke. He needs to stretch his wings. Maybe we could put his growth to the test by putting him against Naruto here.
[slowly becoming berserk] You don't own him! Sasuke doesn't belong to you! Don't you talk about Sasuke like you own him! ESPECIALLY IN FRONT OF ME, YOU ROTTEN BASTARD!
What is that chakra?
