Becoming Hokage
Minato became the Fourth Hokage of Konohagakure no Sato (Hidden Leaf Village) at age 25. He gained his nickname “Konoha’s Yellow Flash” due to his relative speed when compared to other ninjas. He had a dream of peace that could become a reality with the help of Naruto Uzumaki, whom he loved more than his own life and thus Jiraiya was instructed to teach Naruto how to control Kurama’s power.
Dealing with the Nine-Tails
Minato Namikaze’s fatherly love for Naruto was very evident in the way he taught him to control the Nine-Tails’ power. He would combine his own chakra with Naruto’s whenever the Nine-Tails took too much control and threatened to take over Naruto’s body. This helped Naruto greatly in controlling the beast so that it never fully overpowered him.
