Only those with the imnse chakra reserves of a Tailed Beast, coupled with auto-regenerative abilities, actually qualify as fusion fuel for Baryon Mode.
As everyone knows, Hashirama once explicitly stated that Naruto's chakra in Nine-Tails Mode nearly matched his own base reserves.
Therefore, half of the Nine-Tails' chakra plus Naruto's personal chakra essentially equals Hashirama's total pool.
In this math equation, Naruto's contribution is negligible.
Even as an Uzumaki, known for their larger-than-average tanks, his reserves are a drop in the bucket compared to a giant chakra fox's baseline.
In other words, Hashirama's baseline chakra is roughly equal to half of the Nine-Tails.
He is essentially a walking Tailed Beast.
And that is true, raw Tailed Beast chakra.
Frauds like Kisa, who get called the "Tailless Tailed Beast," do not make the cut.
Their entire gimmick relies on siphoning chakra from others, aning true Tailed Beast-level fusion is way out of their reach.
As the group stared at Hashirama, they marveled at the possibility of him burning his own chakra as fuel without needing a furry roommate.
But what was Hashirama thinking?
He thought they were plotting to treat him like a giant fox and forcefully seal him inside a teenager's stomach.
What kind of cursed logic was that?
As Tobirama had said, it was pointless—so things simply can't be taught.
It is unfair to call all reincarnations of Asura brain-dead idiots.
A more polite phrasing would be that they are "idiot savants" with hyper-specialized talent in hitting things very hard.
Hashirama's Wood Style constructs were essentially just brute-force math equations shaped into giant wooden statues.
The only ti he ever used actual brainpower was calculating the precise Sealing Jutsu needed to stop the Nine-Tails from accidentally crushing its own skull with its elbow during a fight.
Even at the Valley of the End, when Madara encased the Nine-Tailed Beast in his Susanoo, Hashirama had to admit, "That Madara's got so ideas."
"Asking the First Hokage to master Baryon Mode is like asking him to morize every single forbidden jutsu Tobirama ever invented," Makoto interrupted, shattering the group's dangerous daydream.
"Let's drop the unrealistic fantasies."
If they wanted to use Baryon Mode, they were stuck finding a willing Jinchūriki.
"Wait a second," Kushina raised her hand like a student in the back of a classroom. "If the First Hokage is too stupid to learn it, how the hell did the Nine-Tails figure it out? I never took the giant fox was that smart."
Before anyone could blink, the massive fox sealed inside Kushina's mind violently lost its temper.
"I HAVE LIVED FOR OVER A THOUSAND YEARS! HOW COULD A RE ATBAG LIKE YOU POSSIBLY COMPREHEND MY BOUNDLESS WISDOM?! THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I HATE YOU HUMANS! YOU TREAT US LIKE ILLITERATE PETS! HMPH!"
The Nine-Tails' furious roaring rattled Kushina's skull.
"The fox says he is over a thousand years old and his wisdom is way beyond my comprehension," Kushina deadpanned, translating its words for the group.
This was a tactical move on her part.
Kushina had never bothered to actually converse with the giant demon fox, so she had no counterargunts.
Instead, she was crowdsourcing a coback.
"Then ask the overgrown furball what its learned after a thousand years of existing," Tobirama suggested without missing a beat.
"Good idea," Kushina nodded. "Hey fox, I have a question. You—"
"THERE IS NO NEED TO RELAY MY WORDS! I CAN HEAR EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU IDIOTS OUT THERE!" the Nine-Tails roared, interrupting her inner monologue.
"Then why are you getting so defensive?" Kushina pressed, smirking. "Answer the damn question! Give us one concrete example of your millennium wisdom!"
"I don't need to prove myself to lesser beings like you lot," the Nine-Tails scoffed, sweating profusely inside the seal.
"The Baryon Mode you are all discussing was literally invented by in the future. That alone proves that i'm smart!."
In truth, the giant fox was feeling incredibly insecure.
Having spent the last few decades locked in various cramped stomachs, even writing have beco unfamiliar to him.
Plus, had he not spent most of his life throwing massive temper tantrums and leveling mountains, acting exactly like the mindless beast they accused him of being?
The irony was thick.
The Nine-Tails was desperately using Makoto's future knowledge as a shield to hide the fact that he currently was a dumbass.
"This could literally cost lives if we ss up," Tobirama sighed, rubbing his temples. "We need strict scientific rigor."
Kushina had no retort for the fox.
She glanced at the others, who were all shaking their heads in collective disappointnt.
She pursed her lips and turned to Edo Tensei Rin.
"Rin, did your creepy alternate self from the illusion teach you anything else? Like what that staff was? How did she bypass the Jinchūriki requirent and just drain the beasts like batteries?"
"No," Rin sighed, shaking her head. "She said ti was limited and only taught the most essential and universally applicable knowledge."
Rin turned to Orochimaru, raising a hand. "Lord Orochimaru, why not start the human trials on ? I am an Edo Tensei, so I cannot die. As for Isobu, the giant turtle said dying because of last ti sucked, but it's willing to die again for a good fight. Besides, according to Makoto, when the future Nine-Tailed Beast used Baryon Mode, it was reborn inside Naruto's daughter, right?"
Her logic was morbid but sound. Yet, Orochimaru still refused.
"No. Without extensive research, we cannot confirm if a Tailed Beast respawning from Baryon Mode operates on the sa chanic as standard death."
Orochimaru paused, his snake-like eyes narrowing as a deeply cursed theory ford in his head.
"Consider this... what if the Nine-Tails respawned inside Uzumaki Naruto daughter because the fox was actively... spectating... from the front row when Naruto and Hinata were intimately conceiving her?"
The entire group froze.
"If sothing goes wrong, the fusion reaction in Baryon Mode could beco unstoppable, resulting in the complete loss of a Tailed Beast." Orochimaru concluded.
"Wait," Fuu raised her hand timidly, her eyes wide with horror. "A Jinchūriki passing a Tailed Beast down through childbirth to avoid dying... Does that not sound suspiciously similar to how the degenerates in the illusion transferred them?"
According to the future story Makoto had told, Baryon Mode consud the Nine-Tails' Chakra and life force, allowing the Jinchūriki to survive.
Then, the Nine-Tails reappeared in Naruto's daughter, making her the new Jinchūriki.
Ignoring the details in between, the beginning and end did resemble the inheritance thod in the Limited Tsukuyomi World, albeit less cursed—not involving humans and Tailed Beasts.
"Actually, a Tailed Beast's intelligence and personality heavily depend on their past Jinchūriki and synchronized mories," Makoto casually interjected, dropping a lore nuke.
"mories?" The group looked at him, puzzled.
What did mories have to do with it?
"If the Tailed Beasts can clearly rember minor events from a thousand years ago, it ans they can also rember recent minor events."
"And the Tailed Beasts can receive external information—just like how the Nine-Tailed Beast was communicating with Kushina earlier."
"In fact, when a Jinchūriki experiences strong emotions, so of their mories are synchronized with the Tailed Beast."
"In other words..."
Makoto looked directly at Kushina.
"In other words... since the Nine-Tails was sealed inside both you and Minato... it possesses both of your complete, uncensored mories."
Kushina's eyes widened to the size of dinner plates as the sheer, unadulterated horror set in.
"So..." Hanabi gasped, piecing the cursed puzzle together. "If the fox has both of their mories from when they conceived Naruto... it ans the fox basically experienced doing that to himself in....?!"
"AAAAAAHHHHH!" Kushina shrieked, clutching her head and collapsing to her knees in the mud as her mind broke.
