Board Thread:Theories and Speculation/@comment-34277398-20180124015008

I was wondering how Minato actually got Kyuubi mode. I am under the understanding that Minato fought Kyuubi after he sealed himself and the kyuubi within himself into shinigami's stomach. This is because the two souls apparently spend eternity fighting. This made me think Minato defeated Kurama. However it is possible that Minato befriended Kurama instead. I'm not sure which one. For the sake of this discussion, disregard the theory that Naruto's kurama and Minato's kurama are linked because I don't think that necessarily true.
