Since the beginning of _Naruto_ , I know that the fourth Hokage (his father)
had sealed the nine tailed fox into Naruto. But now I am at the part where
Madara Uchiha comes into play and I understand that he used his Sharingan to
control the beast and attacked the leaf village.

So was the nine-tailed fox used 2 times to attack the leaf village, during the
first and fourth Hokage?

How many times was the nine tailed fox used to attack the leaf village?


We can use deduction to answer this with a few givens: the Leaf was created by
Madara so it didn’t exist before him, and extracting a Bijuu kills its host,
even Uzumakis (it just takes a little longer).

Okay, so going from that, we know that Madara was the first attack, that makes
one. In response to the Madara attack, the first Hokage put the Kyuubi into
his wife, Mito Uzumaki. We also know that it was directly given to Kushina
Uzumaki from Mito. This means it never left Mito because she would’ve already
been dead. While Kushina was in possession of the Kyuubi, it was extracted by
Madara again, the second attack. Immediately after, it was given to Naruto,
and 12 years later the events of Naruto began.

Thus, we can conclude that the Nine Tails was used to attack the Leaf exactly
2 times.

Spoiler: Madara did not attack the second time. The attacker was someone using
his name. You could say he was acting on his behalf. So, twice.
