Kurama or the popular Nine Tail Fox, has been one of the most driving in the series. The strongest tails beast in the belly of an adolescent driving the wild. We first saw the big orange fox in episode one of Naruto, but after that description of an opening, we only hear about him. The beast comes sparingly and hardly showed his full form in the early episodes. It was not until Naruto’s first fight with Sasuke we saw Kurama big and looming.

The Fight with only the beginning of their relationship and it was not exactly on good terms. Kurama had been trying to get hold of Naruto’s body and free himself from the beginning. And each time Naruto did use Tailed Beast’s chakra, the seal would weaken, and Kurama would give out more juice. It was a two-fold process ending in a win-win argument for Kurama and the Cunning beast’s first attempt to take over come when Naruto faced Orichimaru alone.

Kurama Wanted to Possess Naruto?

The first time Kurama lends his power to Naruto is when he starts to conceptualize his plan. He planned to break the seals Minato had placed on him to keep him at bay. But Kurama had been sealed for long years, and he knew a thing or two about seals, even if they were from Uzumaki. There was even a scene when Kurama lent out his Chakra to Naruto without the blonde ninja asking. It was when Naruto was almost beaten by Sasuke, and the nine tails took pity on him. This was also when Naruto grew a tail made of chakra and changed his movements with him.

The second big moment was a little too close to comfort for Karuma, much to Naruto’s Dismay. He became a mini Nine Tail Fox and went on a rampage, only to be toyed by Orochimaru. That was one of the ferocious by Naruto, but it won’t be the last time he let Nine Tail fox take control of him. The fight Pain was when he almost got released. Naruto was hell-bent on revenge and gave into the beast within. The result was pain ended up controlling Nine Tails to control him from causing any more destruction. But this was the last time Kurama would have control of Naruto because next time, it would be Naruto coming for him.
