My question is: How did so many villagers find out that Naruto was Kurama's jinchuriki? As far as we know, when Kushina introduced Hiruzen to Naruto (when she was dying) it was only Hiruzen and a couple of Jonins around, 2 or 3. So how did so many people find out? If the goal was to protect Naruto and not mention the fact that he is Minato's son, how did the idea of him being the new jinchuriki spread out, especially since not even a hand full of people knew about it since the beginning? I'm pretty sure that those who were around had a pact not to tell anybody about it, and it was confirmed that those who even whispered were punished drastically, yet everybody who wasn't a kid knew about Naruto and Kurama.
