Interesting story. I as for the choices, I choose Naruto leaves the village for the Akatsuki for the sole purpose of sabotaging Akatsuki's plan to capture the bijuu. But you might want to add in that his mother and sister knows it and was asked to keep it a secret from Minato.

Go

To be fair it's the Uzumaki clan's bloodline. Kushina's reaction to learning her best friend is in love with her son was hilarious. So was Yugito's substitution. If Itachi finds out his mom is in love with his best friend, he might be torn between congratulating his friend, and killing him.

I thought Hinata's jacket back then was more of a cream color.

Oh Kyo should give Naruto torture tips for boys interested in Akane. I cringed a bit from imagining Sasuke's balls obliterated by a strike from a reverse blade sword.

He should leave to sabotage akatsuki to protect his sister

Interesting story. I have to say it was different and interesting. I like the one that he joins to kill them from the inside and out.

Wow I'm liking this story a lot! Any intentions of coming back?

Naruto is tricked by akatsuki to be their secret weapon is an awesome idea go with it

Ah, Minato bashing, badass Kakashi, Awsome Naruto, Good Itachi and good Inner-Sakura... THE MAKINGS OF A AWSOME STORY! YOU GO!

really like this story keep it up. :D

also...ur ideas...why not combine them?

like for instance:

getting told to go and help itachi so he is traveling from place to place looking 'aka not looking' for them to join...they end up finding him and 'persuading' him to join and be the weapon again jinchuriki...tho he sees through the rouse he decides to go with it but instead of being a weapon he will sabotage and eventually kill the non-repentant ones and eventually become the new leader.

well...thats one idea mix anyway. let me know what you think. :D

i say aid itachi and please update soon

Great chapter and plot

I like all of the suggestions above except the last one

My habit of not reading AN's overtake me once more! Sorry bout that!
