The 4th's Decision

[Stoopider]

I would have went with Sakura. But unfortunately I clicked Naruto hastily without thinking. Heh.

]Sakura would have been an interesting Candidate, her brilliant chakra control and knowledge would have come in very handy. However I question her mental stability. Imagine her Inner Sakura keeps on fighting with the Kyuubi inside her. Hehehe. Or they'll be best friends and have fun time.

But Sakura in times of trouble, I think she makes very poor choices. She don't have the creativity unlike Naruto to overcome stuff. Sakura would just hold her kunai, close her eyes and say "Please Mister DOn't" Like protecting Sasuke versus Gaara. Some help. Neither does she have the strive and determination like Naruto to keep on pushing.

I choose Naruto, for the simple reason, he doesn't give up.

I think i'll seal kyubi into shikamaru. Hes got the brains. Although hes a lazy ninja, if he did have kyubi inside him, imagine how many people he could catch using his kage mane no jutsu. Maybe an army of 1000!

[Kumiriko]

Shika could Kage mana the whole world with the 9 tails.

Naruto, there was a reason why the 4th gave it to him. Lets not tinker with fate and destiny.

[SK]

I say Naruto, since the 4th sealed it into him to protect him. Plus since Naruto is the 4th's son maybe the 4th knew of some imminent threat and figured instead of destroying kyubi he could use it for konoha's advantage.

[r3n]

id seal it into shikamura cos he wouldnt be a threat with that much power, as he would be too lazy to use it for being evil. instead he would only use it when he needed to protect those close to him.

[Mister Pie]

None of the above!

I would have sealed it in the 3rd, who at the time would be the only person I'd feel is wise enough to handle such a curse. Given the 3rd's love for the village I'm sure he would have consented to it as well.

Of course, I'm not sure if you could even seal the kyubi inside an adult or not...

[tank45s]

I think Neji would be a great choice because he is a great strategist(not as good as Shikamaru but close) and then his already amazing level of chakra and techniques combine with the kyubi would make him the bomb! Even though he is so stuckup

[rdkenshin]

As much as I love shikamaru I dont think it would be good for him. He would get insulted too much, it would then become troublesome and hewould

a) kill himself
b) kill everyone else with his brains and power

Shikamarus the coolest character.

EDIT: oh, I would put him in naruto. It makes the most sense.
