Two shinobi were jumping through the trees headed to Nadeshiko village. Shizuka was rushing towards her former home with one Naruto Uzumaki.

"Hurry up slowpoke! We're going to be late!" Shizuka exclaimed

Naruto was annoyed. It wasn't the fact that he was going to Nadeshiko village, but more so of the fact that Shizuka woke him up hours before the sun would rise. She completely ignored his plan of just using one of his wolf summons to take them, but apparently she had other plans.

"I wouldn't have to hurry up if you let me get some sleep!" Naruto said

"Come on! We've only got a few more miles!" Shizuka said and Naruto groaned

"I should have stayed with night raid." Naruto thought

The sharingan wielding ninja suddenly had to speed up in order to tackle Shizuka out of the way from a barrage of kunai and shuriken coming towards her.

"What the hell was that?" Shizuka asked and Naruto used his sharingan to look around

"Somebody doesn't want us to make it to Nadeshiko village." Naruto said

"What does that mean?" Shizuka asked

"Be prepared to fight." Naruto told her

His sword appeared in his hand while Shizuka pulled out some trench knives before they were surrounded by 50 blank masked anbu.

"Anbu? Why are they attacking us?" Shizuka asked

"They're not normal Konoha anbu." Naruto said

"What do we do?" Shizuka asked

"Kill them." Naruto answered

For the next 10 minutes, Naruto and Shizuka demonstrated fantastic teamwork without communicating. Shizuka did get injured thanks to her using wind chakra and Naruto failed to mention that the bodies will burst into flames so she did get burned a few times. They landed back to back with 10 more of Danzo's henchmen standing before them.

"You could have told me the bodies burst into flames." Shizuka said and had a bit of rightful annoyance in her voice

"Sorry about that. Kind of slipped my mind. Are you alright?" Naruto asked

"I'm fine. I learned some medical ninjutsu while you were gone. I can heal up." Shizuka said

"Good. I need you to crouch down." Naruto said

She saw he had lighting crackling around his body so she quickly crouched down when he unleashed his Chidori stream and that paralyzed all of the remaining root anbu. Naruto kept them alive while he searched them for anything that would lead them to Danzo, but they had nothing.

"So much for wishful thinking." Naruto said and burned the bodies

"Danzo?" Shizuka asked

"Yeah. If they're this far out, then it's possible they're headed to Nadeshiko." Naruto said

"What the hell would he want Nadeshiko for? I grew up there and it's not much that we have to offer." Shizuka said

"There is something he could use that village for." Naruto said

"What would that be?" Shizuka asked

"A base of operations. Danzo can challenge the village and easily take it over due to his number of root anbu. The terrain up on the mountains surrounded by the forest would be ideal for him." Naruto said

"Then we need to get going!" Shizuka said

"Climb on my back." Naruto said, as he knelt down

"Why?" Shizuka asked

"I'm gonna use a series of Shunshin to get us there." Naruto said

"Oh no. Here comes the motion sickness." Shizuka said and held on tight as he took off

Nadeshiko

It only took about 10 minutes for Naruto to reach the gates and they were stopped by a guard.

"Halt! State your business in Nadeshiko!"

"It's me! Shizuka! Did you miss me?" Shizuka asked

"Lady Shizuka. It's been a few years. Open the gates and send word to Lady Towika!"

"Lady Shizuka?" Naruto asked and Shizuka scratched the back of her head

"I'm kind of royalty here since I was the last student of Ajisai sensei." Shizuka replied

The gates opened and the two leaf ninja were met by an entire group of kunoichi with Towika standing front and center.

"Shizuka. It's about time you returned." Towika said

"It's been three years, but I made it." Shizuka said and bowed

"Who might this be? A man who has bested you in battle?" Towika asked

"No. Well, yes. Kind of. This is Naruto." Shizuka said

"Naruto? The boy lady Ajisai sent you off to be with?" Towika asked

"That's the one. Looks kind of scary, right?" Shizuka asked

"He's grown up quite a bit. Nice to see you again, Naruto." Towika said and Naruto bowed

"Likewise. What's with all of the armed kunoichi? Wasn't like this last time I was here." Naruto said

"Follow me." Towika said and led them to a cliff

"Shouldn't we check in with Ajisai sensei?" Shizuka asked

"I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Lady Ajisai was killed about a year ago." Towika said

"What? That's impossible. Despite her being old, she was still pretty damn strong." Shizuka said

"She didn't die in battle. From what we've gathered, the autopsy showed she died from some kind of fast acting poison in her sleep." Towika said

"Bandits?" Shizuka asked

"No. She sent me out on a mission and when I returned, her guards were killed as well. They didn't even see it coming. I highly doubt this was the act of bandits. This was a well thought execution." Towika said

"Do you have any samples of that poison? I was trained by Tsunade Senju for three years on medical ninjutsu. Maybe I can see what kind of poison it was and where to trace it back to." Shizuka said

"I'll take you there." Towika said

"Thank you." Shizuka replied

"Naruto, please excuse us." Towika said

"It's fine." Naruto said and Towika began to walk

"Do you mind looking around?" Shizuka whispered

"Way ahead of you." Naruto replied and vanished

Three days later

Naruto returned to Nadeshiko village after searching all over for any clues on who killed Ajisai and his bunch was right. He's pretty much used to Danzo and now his men operate, but what sealed the deal was the amount of kids missing from orphanages when he would visit local towns in the area. However, there was something off about his discoveries. It was too much of a coincidence that the root anbu attacked Shizuka on the exact day that they would be arriving at Nadeshiko village.

"Naruto!"

The dual hair colored ninja in question looked up to see Shizuka running up to him.

"Did you find anything on the poison?" Naruto asked

"Yeah and it's like a dual threat. It attacks the nerves in your body, then it attaches to the bloodstream clogging up the coronary arteries forcing a heart attack." Shizuka said

"Do you know where it comes from?" Naruto asked

"Yes. It's from Konoha, but this is back during the second shinobi war. Lady Tsunade told me about this poison that was so dangerous only a select few knew about it and due to the dangers of it, the third hokage ordered for it to be destroyed. It was recorded as destroyed, but obviously somebody kept a few notes. On top of that, it was converted into a gas instead of a liquid from when it was first created. That's why nobody heard a struggle during Ajisai sensei's death along with her guards. They inhaled it and died." Shizuka said

"Who was put in charge of destroying this?" Naruto asked

"Danzo." Shizuka said

"Of course. Danzo was the one person lord third trusted the most since they were friends growing up. It wouldn't surprise me if lord third doubted Danzo would do such a thing." Naruto said

Before they could even talk more, the alarm sounded and they saw Towika running with her battle gear on.

"Towika, what's going on?!" Shizuka asked

"One of our kunoichi detected a massive force quickly coming towards us. They're coming up the mountain." Towika said

"It's Danzo." Naruto replied

"How do you know?" Shizuka asked

"I can sense him. The odd thing is, there's more than just root with him. Try to keep a non-root anbu member alive for me. I want to question one of them." Naruto said

"Where are you going?" Shizuka asked

"To kill the root of the problem." Naruto said

"Be careful." Shizuka said

Naruto poked her on the forehead and quickly ran towards one of the bridges to wait for Danzo in order to kill him.

Bridge

Danzo was headed towards Nadeshiko village to claim his new territory that would be his base of operations being closely guarded by his two most trusted guards, Torune Aburame and Fū Yamanaka. Danzo suddenly stopped walking when a kunai landed right at his feet.

"Fū. Torune." Danzo said

Without even asking, the two guards jumped in front of Danzo looking for any kind of movement or chakra signature, but they saw nothing.

"Fū, anything?" Torune asked

"No. Nothing." Fū responded

"That's impossible. Nobody can get past your sensing ability." Torune said

"I know. There's just nobody here. I'll try to expand my..."

Fū was silenced when he had his throat slit from seemingly nothing. Torune went to help Fū with whatever he could, but the moment he took a step, a kunai went straight through his heart leaving Danzo all alone. Danzo kept his guard up and then Naruto was standing just a few feet away from him.

"Hello, Danzo. Did you miss me?" Naruto asked

"Naruto Uzumaki." Danzo said

"The one and only. Time to die." Naruto said

Danzo went through a few hand signs before taking off at what he assumed were blinding speeds and punched Naruto only to get met by the rib cage of his Susanoo. Before Danzo could jump back, he was grabbed by the hand of the Susanoo.

"After all these years, you finally attacked me by yourself instead of with your little root drones." Naruto said

"Years of spying can give you time to strategize on how to take on your opponent." Danzo said

"True, but your opponent has never shown his true skills during all of your spying. By the way, I appreciate the welcoming gift. 50 of your root anbu all for me." Naruto said

Muscles began to grow on the body of his Susanoo and not before long, Danzo was squeezed to a pulp, but his body reappeared behind Naruto who wasn't surprised in the slightest.

"Next, let's battle with our eyes." Danzo said

"That's a bad thing to do." Naruto said

Danzo quickly made a kunai appear in his hand and tried to stab Naruto through his Susanoo. Of course it didn't work since the kunai broke and Danzo didn't show any emotion.

"Just as I thought. The Susanoo. That splendid armor to protect yourself with." Danzo said

"Congratulations, your eye does work. Anyone with a functioning brain could figure that out." Naruto replied

Danzo was smashed into the ground, but once again he reappeared on top of the bridge completely unharmed.

"The power in its attack is impressive as well." Danzo said

Amaterasu

Danzo suddenly burst into black flames due to Naruto's sharingan ability and of course Danzo reappeared unharmed. Danzo went through hand signs and used the wind style: vacuum bullet. Naruto dodged every single one of them before countering with the fireball jutsu and Danzo was forced to jump out of the way.

"Unrivaled speed, excellent reflexes and three Mangekyou abilities in rapid fashion. You definitely are the son of Konoha's yellow flash and the apprentice of Mikoto Uchiha." Danzo said

"Apprentice? I like the sound of that. By the way, I'm also the son of the great Kushina Uzumaki." Naruto said

Naruto seemingly disappeared from sight and Danzo was still weary of Naruto, but then Danzo dropped down to a knee when he felt the wind get knocked out of him courtesy from Naruto's fist being embedded into his stomach.

Naruto quickly jumped away when Danzo used the wind style: vacuum blast in an attempt to catch him off guard, but Naruto's newfound speed was unrivaled. It was almost like he was predicting his moves before he even made them. Danzo started to feel a bit lightheaded until Mikoto appeared behind him

"Mikoto?" He questioned

Danzo quickly realized he was under a genjutsu and broke it before jumping away to create some distance. He was then met with Naruto's armored version of his Susanoo aiming right at him before firing off an attack. Not being able to weave jutsu signs in time, Danzo used his arm with Hashirama's DNA to use wood style in order to avoid being killed again.

"The cells of Hashirama Senju. No wonder your body is able to handle so many sharingan eyes. Your chakra took a deep plunge to use this jutsu. You could have just let me kill you and used the izanagi to revive yourself." Naruto said and Danzo's eye widened

"You knew." Danzo said

"It doesn't take a genius to figure that out. You would have been a lot harder to figure out if one of if not more of those eyes were the Mangekyou sharingan instead of a regular three tomoe sharingan. Now, die and come back to life again." Naruto said, as his Susanoo took aim

He fired off another shot from his Susanoo and Danzo was hit, but he reappeared using the Izanagi. Danzo ran at Naruto again and was stabbed again only to reappear once more. Naruto just sighed as it was getting a bit annoying.

"Fighting that Susanoo won't be easy either. His arrow attack is hard to dodge and I can't do izanagi yet. I have to finish things this minute." Danzo thought

He wiped some blood onto his finger and used the summoning jutsu to bring out his Baku which was a gigantic elephantine chimera which towers over Naruto's armored Susanoo. Granted, Naruto was only using the upper body of his Susanoo right now, but the size of Danzo's summons was impressive. The Baku began inhaling everything in its path rendering the Susanoo immobile giving Danzo an opening to attack from behind or so he thought. Naruto used the great dragon flame jutsu to stop the Baku and then used his Susanoo to punch Danzo into a pillar, forcing him to use the izanagi again.

"Four minutes." Naruto said

"What was that?" Danzo asked

"That's how long your jutsu lasts. It makes your attacks successful while rendering all of mine ineffective, but your attacks need to connect in order to be successful." Naruto said

Naruto dropped the Susanoo and disappeared from sight. Danzo was on edge since he wasn't used to Naruto's moves. Typically when a ninja disappears, they would want to hide their chakra, but Naruto's chakra was felt all over the place so he could attack from any angle he wanted to. He was hiding in plain sight and Dazno was stabbed through the back with Naruto's sword only to reappear with the izanagi.

"You must be getting desperate, Danzo." Naruto's voice echoed around the entire bridge area

"Desperate you say? How?" Danzo asked

He wanted to keep Naruto talking so he could find his exact location.

"A man with your size bounty on his head is bound to run into a bounty Hunter. I always wondered if I'd find you first or if Kakuzu would. You wanted to get a new base and that brought you to Nadeshiko. You obviously aren't interested in ruling the village since you killed the leader." Naruto told him

"Sometimes you must act brash to get desired results." Danzo replied

"How's that going for you? Since you weren't able to make sure Orochimaru and the sand destroyed Konoha, your plans became rushed. You've ruined your body to control the nine tails when in fact you didn't have to do that. You go after Menma, but you made one mistake." Naruto said and Danzo narrowed his eye

"What mistake was that?" Danzo questioned

"Menma was an Uzumaki and he had a temper. His temper made him suspicious and he did things on missions that gave him away. You trained him physically and I'm sure you tried to train him mentally, but Uzumaki's are stubborn. No amount of mental training or manipulation could keep us from being ourselves." Naruto said

"I will admit Menma was a failure, but you can't deny that the power of the nine tails he possessed would have been beneficial to the village." Danzo said

"That would be true, if he actually had the nine tails in him." Naruto said

"What?!" Danzo asked

"Yeah. Menma was no longer in possession of his half of the nine tails before the invasion. It was removed, but don't worry. I'm keeping the other half of our nine tailed friend safe." Naruto said

"I can't believe it. This kid has been outsmarting me his entire life. Killing off my root, already knowing about Menma and managing to remove the nine tails! I've been playing into his hand." Danzo thought and changed tactics

"This village has nothing to do with you? Why protect it? Why isn't the new leader here to fight me?" Danzo asked

"That's because I'm the one who knows what's behind that bandage. You may have Shisui's eye, but his sharingan genjutsu doesn't work on me." Naruto said

Naruto appeared behind Danzo and shocked him with the electromagnetic murder before kicking him away. Three kunai went flying at Danzo and stabbed him in three vital spots, but Dazno once again used the izanagi. Naruto used his lightning manipulation to create a sword of pure lightning chakra as Danzo coated a chakra blade in wind chakra. They ran at one another with the intention of finishing the fight and stabbed one another through the chest.

"You were too hasty. My last eye is still open. You should have been on my side. You could have seen all the good it would have done for you. I win, Naruto. You may think that you saw through my izanagi, but..." Danzo said

Danzo's remaining eye wouldn't work. Naruto looked at him with a blank look on his face, but Danzo could tell there was an underlying smirk hiding beneath Naruto's calm demeanor.

"You're finished." Naruto said

He faded out of sight and Danzo saw a Chidori sticking through his chest from behind. Naruto subtlety placed him under a genjutsu to make him think he still had one more izanagi left.

"You insolent boy." Danzo said

"Did you really think you could stand a chance against me? Somebody without Uchiha blood could never use the sharingan to its full capabilities." Naruto said

Danzo's body started to break down due to his declining health and his Hashirama Senju arm began to spread out into a gigantic tree forcing Danzo to break off to avoid being taken over. Danzo stood up and unwrapped his right eye revealing one last Sharingan that Naruto already knew about.

"No. This is where we battle with our eyes." Danzo said

"Even with that eye, you still couldn't detect that something was wrong. You must've used up its visual prowess sometime ago and the time limit hasn't gone up yet." Naruto said

"What does that mean?" Danzo asked and Naruto held up his palm revealing a sharingan eye

"Look familiar?" Naruto asked

"I-Impossible." Danzo said

Danzo tried to run away which made Naruto sigh as he began walking after him. He followed Danzo's bloody footsteps slowly catching up to him Danzo eventually collapsed to the ground as his wounds became too much for him to handle.

"You're going to die, but I must admit I understand why you did everything you did. You love the leaf village. You would do anything to make sure this village is the strongest and the best that it can be." Naruto said, as his sharingan started to spin

"For the peace of the shinobi world and the leaf, I can not let you live!" Danzo said

Danzo snatched open his robe revealing a reverse tetragram seal planning on killing himself and Naruto, but he was suddenly stopped when Naruto placed him under a mind control genjutsu

"Not so fast. What was your deal with Jiraiya?" Naruto asked

"In exchange for training Menma, he'd gather sharingan eyes for me." Danzo said

"What else?" Naruto asked

"Jiraiya is obsessed with the prophecy. So much so that he's gone out of his way to use his spy network with my root anbu to figure out information on Naruto Uzumaki. His weakness, his strengths, his flaws." Danzo replied

"What did he find?" Naruto questioned

"Naruto had no flaws until he let his family get close to him. He decided to attack him there." Danzo admitted

"What attack? Nothing happened." Naruto said

"The fourth hokage was his first step. A poison that attacks the immune system should have killed him, but Naruto saved his life and Tsunade Senju got to him in enough time to figure out a cure. Minato Namikaze would have too much pride to let his family worry so Jiraiya planned on having Minato die in his sleep. That would open up the seat of the hokage position. I would use the sharingan to influence myself to take over the village, but plans changed." Danzo said

"When did he go after Kushina Uzumaki?" Naruto asked

"While she was pregnant with her last child. He wanted to make sure another Uzumaki child was not born to ensure the prophecy would come true with Narumi being the hero. She was saved by Shizuka who spilled the drink that was laced with the poison." Danzo said

"What else?" Naruto asked

"Naruto's one true weakness and his biggest flaw, is his feelings for Shizuka. Jiraiya plans to exploit that in order to defeat Naruto. Naruto outclasses Jiraiya when it comes to skills, so Jiraiya will resort to using tactics to get rid of the boy. Jiraiya doesn't realize what he's doing." Danzo told him

"He clearly doesn't know how far I'll go to protect Shizuka. Since you were so forthcoming with this information, I'll give you some parting words. The hidden leaf village will no longer have to worry about you or Jiraiya after I get my hands on him. Now, kill yourself." Naruto said

Danzo activated the reverse tetragram seal on his body. Not too long after, the seal exploded and Danzo was no more. Naruto went over towards the battlefield where Towika was standing with some wounded kunoichi, but not Shizuka.

"Towika. Where's Shizuka?" Naruto asked

"She's gone." Towika responded

"Gone? Where?" Naruto asked

"I don't know. She used up all of her chakra to save everyone with some ultimate wind jutsu of hers and next thing we know, there's a huge cloud of smoke like a summons. After that, Shizuka was gone." Towika said

"A summons? She doesn't have a summons as far as I know." Naruto said and then Fenrir appeared

"Naruto! It's urgent!" Fenrir said

"What happened?" Naruto asked

"Anyō forest is under attack. Hop on!" Fenrir said

"What? How?" Naruto asked

"It's the toads. My mother is holding them off, but she called for you to come help us." Fenrir said and took Naruto back to Anyō forest

Anyō forest

Upon arriving in Anyō forest, Naruto was greeted to the sight of wounded wolves being tended to and burning trees. There were also dead toads around showing that the wolves were able to push them back.

"How long has the fighting been going on?" Naruto asked

"About an hour. We opened our home to the toads in hopes to strengthen our ties with Konoha and this is how they repay us!" Fenrir said

"Don't worry. I'll handle it." Naruto said

"I'll help as well. If I'm next in line to become the boss, then I'll need to protect my home." Fenrir said

"I can't let you do that." Naruto said

"Why not? This is my home!" Fenrir said

"I'm going to the source of the problem and I'm going to kill the source of the problem." Naruto said

"If you're going to do what I think it is, then you'll need to go through training." Angerboda said, as she appeared

"Training? What for?" Naruto asked

"It's time for you to learn wolf sage mode. Jiraiya of the legendary sannin, despite being weaker than you, does know Sage mode. His sage mode is incomplete, but it is still a very powerful technique that could give you problems." Angerboda said

"How long will this take?" Naruto asked

"Anywhere from a few weeks to a few months." Angerboda said

"I can't do that. I need to find Shizuka." Naruto said

"I have sent out our spy wolves to locate her. Shadow was tailing you as always and when Shizuka was captured, he alerted me. There's no coincidence that we were attacked the same time Shizuka was abducted." Angerboda said

"It was a well thought out attack. Jiraiya knew I would split from Shizuka to keep her safe from Danzo's sharingan." Naruto said

"We'll get her back." Fenrir said

"I know. Wait. Where's midnight? He's usually the first one to go looking for blood." Naruto said and the air was seemingly sucked out of the area

"Midnight gave up his life to protect the young pups. Someone as tough as him actually had a soft spot for the pups. Not a single pup was hurt thanks to him." Angerboda said

"I should have been there!" Fenrir said

"You were needed elsewhere and Midnight requested to guard the pups on his own." Angerboda said

"Don't worry. His death won't be in vain." Naruto said and all of the wolves surrounded them

"We support whatever you do, Naruto. For one of our own has been taken by the toads, another has been killed and they have invaded our home. If you are an enemy of the hidden leaf village, then we are as well. The pack sticks together." Angerboda said

"I told Danzo that the leaf village would no longer have to worry about him or Jiraiya, but what I'm about to do will cleanse the village of all the evil that lies within." Naruto said

All of the wolves around Naruto suddenly grew a feral look to them and let out howls that would send chills down the spines of their enemies.

3 months later

Three months of hard training for Naruto and he finally mastered sage mode. He needed to make a few modifications since he was given enhanced hearing like a wolf so any loud sounds bothered his ears. His solution was sound suppression seals located behind his ears to get rid of that weakness.

Three months of Konoha missing two of their strongest ninja and they were never located. Kushina went into a depression since Naruto just came back and he was already missing. She was just as worried about Shizuka since it would take a lot to defeat her by herself so adding Naruto with her is when things went wrong.

In these three months, the akatsuki took a heavy blow as Konoha managed to kill Hidan and Kakuzu, adding to their total of men killed. However, through Jiraiya's spy network, it was discovered that Itachi and Deidara were also killed. They didn't know who did it, but whoever it was earned a few good graces of the leaf village.

Narumi's name also rang through the five nations when she defeated the leader of the akatsuki, pain. A short while after learning sage mode, Narumi intercepted the akatsuki leader who was on his way to Konoha to capture her himself. It took the power of nearly releasing the nine tails and sage mode to defeat him because of him having the legendary rinnegan.

"I'm here, Granny Tsunade. What's the big emergency?" Narumi asked

Tsunade called for an emergency meeting with the shinobi council, Konoha 11 and some of the clan heads.

"There's been a situation." Tsunade said

"You found Naruto and Shizuka?" Kushina asked

"No. It's something bad. Jiraiya, the floor is yours." Tsunade said

"I was called to Mt. Myoboku for an emergency and it's something I'd never imagine would happen." Jiraiya said

"What happened?" Narumi asked

"The elder toad sage has been killed." Jiraiya said

"What? That's impossible." Kushina said

"Who would want to kill the elder toad sage?" Kakashi asked

"No idea. Bunta is the one who found him. His body was dismembered and there was no trace of any foreign chakra signatures." Jiraiya added

"It doesn't make sense. How would anybody even get there? Only you, Narumi and Minato sensei can get to Mt. Myoboku." Kakashi said

"I know. We're looking into it, but right now we're looking at somebody who has the ability to reverse summon into the summoning world." Jiraiya said

"Let's find this fucker and kill whoever it is!" Narumi said

"No. We need to be smart about this." Kushina said and Neko arrived

"Lady hokage. We have a problem." Neko said

"Report." Tsunade said

"The civilians. They're all gone." Neko reported

"What? Gone? What do you mean gone?" Minato asked

"Gone. As in they're not in the village. One second they're all having fun and the moment I blinked, everyone was gone." Neko said

There was an ominous feeling around the meeting room as nobody even noticed the civilians went missing.

"Is there anybody left?" Tsunade asked

"There is. It's just a few of the civilian council members remaining." Neko said

"Bring them in." Tsunade said and the door opened

"Lady Tsunade! We demand answers!"

"This is an outrage!"

"Everyone is missing while you're in here sitting on your ass!"

That last comment made the room get engulfed with killing intent that promised death.

"Shut up! This just happened during the meeting!" Tsunade said

Before anything could be said howling could be heard within the meeting chambers and everyone was confused. Next thing you know, the members of the civilian council had their heads removed causing a panic and everyone was on edge. Narumi looked around before her eyes went wide.

"Above us!" Narumi exclaimed

Everyone looked up and Naruto was standing upside down staring at Jiraiya who already knew why Naruto was there. Neko was the first one to react so she pulled out her tanto then jumped to attack Naruto who just blocked with his own sword.

"What are you doing, Naruto?" Neko asked and Naruto just shoved her away

Jiraiya quickly ran out of the room and Naruto dropped down to follow. Just before he reached the door, chakra chains formed blocking his way out.

"Naruto! What the hell are you doing?!" Narumi asked

"Naruto, stop." Kushina said and he glared at them with his Mangekyo sharingan

"Do not interfere." Naruto told them in a cold voice

He let out a strong pulse of chakra and their chakra chains went away from the sheer force of his chakra. Naruto was gone and Kushina dropped down to her knees.

"Minato, what the hell is going on? The look in his eyes just now." Kushina said

"He's obviously after Jiraiya." Minato said

"We have to stop him! He's trying to kill pervy sage!" Narumi said

Konoha streets

Naruto was a man on a mission as he zoomed through the streets of Konoha with his sharingan focused on Jiraiya. Jiraiya obviously set traps, but they had no effect of sorrowing down Naruto who honestly didn't even notice them. Naruto had enough of chasing Jiraiya through the village and alleyways so he sped up. He went by Jiraiya in the blink of an eye holding up one hand sign.

"Come on, Naruto. Show the village your true colors." Jiraiya thought

Wind style: Ultimate Cyclone devastation

"What?! He's not a wind ninjutsu user!" Jiraiya thought

He could only brace himself as Naruto's wind jutsu tore through Konoha destroying any and everything in its path. All of the anbu, Konoha 11, Minato, Kushina, Kakashi and the clan heads were all caught up in the attack that created a dust cloud. The dust finally settled and the only thing that was left intact was the hokage building and the hokage monument since they were just out of reach from Naruto's jutsu. Everyone who survived the attack could only look on with horror written all over their faces. Konoha was destroyed. A 17 year old used one jutsu and the only thing they could see was one huge crater with the cause of this destruction standing perfectly still in the middle of it all. Jiraiya climbed out of the rubble and just looked around with a calm look on his face, but deep down he was terrified.

"That's quite the jutsu you've got there, Naruto. All my intel said that you could only use earth, lightning and fire chakra natures." Jiraiya said and his eyes widened

"Where is she?" Naruto asked

The reason why Jiraiya's eyes widened was due to the fact that Naruto was already behind him before he could even blink. He quickly turned around aiming a rasengan at Naruto's face, but he was too slow as Naruto already buried his fist into Jiraiya's stomach dropping him down to a knee.

"Look at this. A member of the legendary sannin already kneeling down to a 17 year old. How pathetic." Naruto said and kicked Jiraiya away from him

"I'll admit that you caught me off guard, but the gallant Jiraiya never kneels before anyone. I'd rather die before I do that." Jiraiya said and Naruto smirked

"You can already predict the future." Naruto said

Jiraiya just went through a few hand signs to go on the offensive.

Fire style: Great fireball jutsu

Jiraiya spat out a huge ball of fire and sent it directly at Naruto who countered using the water wall jutsu. The jutsus collided and created a huge cloud of steam. It was a chakra laced steam so Jiraiya couldn't track Naruto by sending him. He had to listen for any kind of movements, but he didn't have to wait long. Inside of the steam, Jiraiya saw a few small black dots that became bigger the closer they got until he realized they were fireballs coming right at him. This was from Naruto's Fire style: Great Flame Flower jutsu and all Jiraiya could do was jump out of the way from hundreds of fireballs coming right at him.

"Where is she?" Naruto asked

"She's not here and you'll never get her back." Jiraiya said

Crystal style: Shuriken Wild Dance

Naruto was surrounded with pink crystal particles, condensing them into numerous shuriken that continuously revolved around him as he launched them at high speeds. Jiraiya used his wild lions mane to protect himself, but the sheer force behind Naruto's jutsu knocked him off of his feet.

"Crystal style? When on earth did he learn that?" Jiraiya thought

"I thought a member of the legendary sannin was better than this." Naruto said

"I'm going easy on you until backup arrives. Why kill you when I can watch you suffer in a prison cell." Jiraiya said

"The fact that you think a prison would hold me is laughable. Blood prison uses a seal to block off your chakra, but leaves you just enough to stay alive and function. I'm an Uzumaki. I could break that seal with ease." Naruto said

Shadow paralysis jutsu

Naruto's movements were restricted by Shikaku and Shikamaru. At this time, Kushina and Narumi wrapped their chakra chains around him.

"Naruto Uzumaki! Stand down!" Tsunade demanded

"Looks like everyone is here." Naruto said

"Naruto, why did you destroy the village?" Minato asked

"I have my reasons. Would you all like to know a secret?" Naruto asked

"A secret? This is not the time for games, Naruto!" Kiba said

"Shut up, mutt." Naruto replied

"What was that?!" Kiba asked

"Relax, Kiba. He's just trying to get you riled up." Shikamaru said

"You said you had a secret to share. Tell us." Shikaku said

"When the elder toad sage was killed, he didn't even beg for his life." Naruto said

"What?" Minato asked

"It was really telling on his end. Almost like he prophesied it would happen and didn't tell anybody. Such a shame. Perhaps that's why it was so easy to infiltrate Mt. Myoboku." Naruto said and everyone gasped

"You killed the elder toad sage?" Kushina asked

"I did and you know it's funny because all of this happened due to some stupid prophecy he came up with and you four just ran with it." Naruto said

"Naruto, you still have time to stand down. Nobody was killed. I can give you a reduced sentence or just banish you from the land of fire." Tsunade said

"That's not good enough. What I want is something else. Something that only I can do." Naruto told them

"What is that?" Kushina asked

"Jiraiya of the legendary sannin has to die." Naruto said

Rasengan

Jiraya came and smashed a rasengan right into Naruto's face, sending him crashing through some rubble.

"Jiraiya, what the hell is going on?!" Kushina asked

"How should I know?!" Jiraiya asked

"Jiraiya. What did you do?" Kushina asked

"Me?! He attacked me!" Jiraiya said

"Naruto isn't somebody who would just randomly attack somebody let alone a member of the legendary sannin without reason. What did you do?" Kushina asked

Right when Jiraiya was about to give an answer, he was thrown back by an invisible jutsu as Naruto was walking towards him.

"If you all value your lives, I suggest you stand back. He's a big boy." Naruto said

"Naruto, by order of the fifth hokage, I demand you stand down!" Tsunade said

"Listen to her, Naruto. There's almost 100 people here including the anbu. You need to stand down. This won't end well for you." Neji said

"I'm done talking." Naruto said

Crystal style: jaded prison

A green-ish glow surrounded Naruto before crystals formed around his body and expanded into a giant prison forcing everyone back except for Jiraiya who Naruto purposely left inside

"Crystal style? Since when could Naruto do that?" Ino asked

"No idea. We don't know if it's a kekkei genkai or not. Naruto must've figured out how to do it while he was gone." Minato said

"How are we going to get in there?" Sakura asked

"I handle this." Tsunade replied

She cracked her knuckles and gave the crystal prison the strongest punch she could, but nothing happened.

What the? Not even that worked." Shizune said

Giant Rasengan

Narumi used the giant rasengan to break open the crystal prison, but nothing happened. Even Minato gave it a shot and nothing happened.

Naruto vs Jiraiya

"That's cute. All of them are struggling to save you. If only they knew that they're only making the prison stronger." Naruto said

"Crystal style ninjutsu, huh. Not bad. Only Mei Terumi was listed as having more than one kekkei genkai." Jiraiya said

"She is." Naruto said

Jiraiya jumped out of the way from a dragon made of crystals and protected himself with his wild lions mane once more when a giant fireball was coming towards him. Jiraiya released his wild lions mane and just barely moved out of the way from Naruto's rasengan that was aimed at his face.

"Come on kid. If you want to kill me, you're going to have to try harder." Jiraiya taunted

"You think I'm trying to kill you? This is just me messing around. You'd know when I'm trying to kill you." Naruto said

"Then let's take this up a notch. Let's see how you really fare against a member of the legendary sannin." Jiraiya said

"Fine by me." Naruto replied

Naruto and Jiraiya rushed forward and met in the middle with their forearms clashing against each other. Jiraiya smirked and then went up in smoke revealing him to be a shadow clone and Naruto was hit from behind. Naruto went up in a bolt of lighting, temporarily shocking Jiraiya who barely managed to turn around to block a punch from Naruto, but he was kicked in the gut so he jumped back.

"Not bad." Jiraiya said, while holding his ribs

"His punches feel just like Tsunade's and he's not even using chakra." Jiraiya thought

"I'll ask you again. Where is she?" Naruto asked

"I don't know what you're talking about." Jiraiya said and smirked

Fire style: Great fireball jutsu

Jiraiya spat out a huge ball of fire and sent it directly at Naruto who countered quickly using the water wall jutsu. The jutsus collided and created a huge cloud of steam. Naruto jumped into the steam, quickly located where Jiraiya was at and then they began a fierce taijutsu and ninjutsu battle. Those looking on only saw fire, water, earth and lightning shooting out from inside of the crystal prison. It was intense. Jiraiya kicked Naruto away and tried the dragon flame jutsu, but Naruto seemingly punched him in the gut from a distance.

"What the hell was that?" Jiraiya thought and coughed up blood

Jiraiya stood up and made multiple explosions happen from a few exploding tags he placed around during the fight. Naruto avoided all of those explosions before he just appeared in front of Jiraiya and gave him a nasty combination of attacks.

Jiraiya was in terrible condition from just a few moves by Naruto. Jiraiya then started to keep his distance with long range attacks, but Naruto kept using his Timeskip ability on Jiraiya and he had no idea on what was going on. The final blow came from a punch to the solar plexus that sent the sannin crashing to the ground.

"You can't win." Naruto said

"What the hell did you take?" Jiraiya asked

"Like a drug? Nothing. This is hard work and dedication. 12 years of non-stop fighting and pushing myself to the absolute limit. Had you made your move before I left for three years, you would have already killed me. Even while he wasn't using his sharingan Itachi was more of a threat than you." Naruto said

"You killed Itachi." Jiraiya said

"No. While I did fight him, I never dealt the final blow. He was already dying and our fight pushed him to his limit before his disease killed him." Naruto admitted

"If you couldn't finish a weakened Itachi then you'll never be able to defeat me." Jiraiya said and went through some hand signs

Summoning jutsu

Out of the smoke came an entire brigade of battle toads along with two small toads.

"Jiraiya boy. What's going on? Where's Konoha?" ? Asked

"Fukasaku, the village was destroyed." Jiraiya said

"What?! How?! By who?!" Fukasaku asked

"Him." Jiraiya said

All of the toads looked around and then laid eyes on Naruto who made them shiver.

"Minato's oldest tadpole? What happened?" ? Asked

"Shima, I believe it's the beginning of the prophecy." Fukasaku said

"It is." Jiraiya said

Summoning jutsu

A large puff of smoke went off catching everyone's attention and Naruto was surrounded by a pack of warrior wolves who were ready to fight.

"He has the wolf contract!" Fukasaku thought

"I'm glad that the remaining two elder toad sages of mount Myoboku are here." Naruto said

"Why?" Jiraiya asked

"I have a nice gift for you." Naruto said

What he did next made everyone gasp in shock. He unsealed the head of the great elder toad and kicked it over to them.

"I believe you were looking for this." Naruto said

"You!" Shima said

"I know. It's lovely isn't it? You attacked my summons and this is payback. They opened their home to you for the benefit of both sides and the hidden leaf. How did you repay them? You came to their home and attacked them. I could have killed all of you, but that wouldn't be as good as this. Right now the look on your faces is priceless." Naruto said

"Naruto, is it time?" A silver fur wolf asked

"It is. Kill them all. I want no survivors. Leave the elders and Jiraiya to me." Naruto said

There was a loud howl and the wolves jumped into battle against the toads. The wolves were outnumbered three to one, but they were more than strong enough to handle the battle toads in front of them.

"I can't believe this. He really is the one we were told of." Shima said

"I'll ask you again, Jiraiya. Where is she?" Naruto asked

"It doesn't matter. You'll never see her again when I'm finished with you. Ma! Pa! It's time!" Jiraiya said

Both toads jumped onto his shoulders and his appearance started to change. Since Jiraiya was not able to properly balance his own chakra with natural energy, his appearance took on a number of toad-like traits. His nose grew bigger, he gained warts, his teeth turned sharp, he grew a goatee and acquired toad-like eyes.

"This is the legendary sage mode I've heard about? A sannin who trained for years still can't properly balance nature chakra without a crutch." Naruto said and held up a hand sign

"He's gathering nature chakra." Shima said

Naruto's appearance also changed. He now had grayish/Pearl white hair which is one of things that changes when Wolf sage mode is utilized. He also has a black coloured, wide diagonal line going around his eyes to both sides of his face along with their Wolf like eyes which are now yellow, but he was able to keep his sharingan active.

Spectators

"I-I don't believe it." Narumi said

"What? What happened?" Sakura asked

"Naruto's able to use sage mode." Narumi said

"This fight just went to a completely different level. We need to get in there." Shizune said

There was a loud bang heard and it was Tsunase who was still trying to break the crystal prison.

"It's not even budging." Tsunade said

"Lady Tsunade, perhaps you should stop. This isn't an ordinary prison. It's designed to keep you out, but as I'm looking at it, we've just been making it stronger." Hinata said

"How?" Minato asked

"We're using chakra based attacks. It's absorbing chakra. It needs brute strength to break open." Hinata said

"I guess sage mode is out of the question." Narumi said

"There has to be a way." Kushina said

"There is." Minato said

"What is it?" Kakashi asked

"Narumi, how many tails can you control?" Kushina asked

"Five." Narumi said and Minato placed his hand on the crystal prison

"We'll need a bit more than that, but it should work or at least weaken it." Minato said

"What are you planning?" Tsunade asked

"If this thing absorbs chakra, then it must be using chakra to somehow protect it. If we can make this thing weaken, some explosive tags should be able to either shatter it or create a large enough hole for us to go through." Minato said

"Okay. Everyone jump back." Narumi said

Once the area was clear, Narumi began transforming into her five tailed state while Minato and Kushina were standing by just in case they had to suppress the nine tails.

Naruto vs Jiraiya

Naruto just pulled himself out of some rubble as Jiraiya shoved a rasengan into his stomach that sent him flying back.

"Ma. Pa. He's a wolf sage. Try using some sound on him." Jiraiya said

Sage art: Frog Song

Fukasaku and Shima croaked together in unison, releasing large, loud and immensely powerful sound waves that were supposed to effectively annoy, distract and temporarily paralyze Naruto.

"Is that all?" Naruto asked

"Impossible. That should have paralyzed you." Jiraiya said

"Did you honestly think I wouldn't take the time to recognize any type of weakness in wolf sage mode?" Naruto asked

Both of them looked up when they heard a loud banging noise and saw Narumi in her five tailed state rapidly punching at the prison.

"Seems like they figured it out." Naruto thought

Summoning jutsu: Crushing Toad Stomach

Jiraiya reverse summons himself and Naruto into the stomach of a giant toad. It was pitch black and Naruto could still see Jiraiya sneaking around due to his enhanced vision. The legendary sannin appeared behind Naruto ready to punch his head off his shoulders, but Naruto ducked down and gave him a donkey kick to the ribs. Naruto followed that up with a knee to the face and a heel kick that was so powerful, Fukasaku nearly lost his concentration on Jiraiya's shoulder.

Chidori Spear

Before Jiraiya could blink, he was stabbed in the shoulder by a current of lighting that had the sage grunting in pain.

"It's funny how you brought me here to have the advantage and yet you're still not winning." Naruto said

Fire style: Giant flame bomb

Naruto jumped back narrowly avoiding getting burned by Jiraiya's jutsu. Naruto had enough and used his Amaterasu to burn the inside of the toad's stomach forcing Jiraiya to cancel out his technique. That's when Shadow appeared with an injured Shizuka by his side.

"Naruto, I found her. She needs medical assistance." Shadow said

"Take her to Sakura or Shizune outside of the prison." Naruto said

"As you wish." Shadow said

Once the wolf was gone Naruto pulled out his sword and cut off Jiraiya's arm when he tried to get him with a giant rasengan.

"Jiraiya boy!" Fukasaku said

The male toad was impaled with a crystal senbon that had so much force that it was able to knock him off of Jiraiya's shoulder.

"Pa!" Shima said

Before she could act, Naruto used a lighting whip on her and then electrocuted her until she passed out and fell off of Jiraiya's shoulder. However to add insult to injury, Naruto swung the lightning whip around a few times before he finally slammed Shima to the ground and Jiraiya was out of sage mode.

"I should have killed you the moment I laid eyes on you." Jiraiya said and Naruto grabbed him by his throat

"You talk too much." Naruto said

He was still in sage mode so he applied pressure until he felt Jiraiya's throat get crushed in his hand before slamming him to the ground.

Wolf fang fist

Naruto's hand and fingers resembled the shape of a wolf about to bite something. He gave Jiraiya a smirk as his wolf summons were nearly finished killing all of the battle toads before jumping into action. All Jiraiya saw was a flurry of punches and kicks that were much more effective, precise and powerful than Naruto's other attacks he's taken. While the attack was going on, each hand of Naruto had a chakra spectral of a wolf surrounding them. One final attack happened and Jiraiya definitely felt all of his ribs break as he was sent crashing to the ground.

The moment Naruto finished attacking, the crystal prison was shattered and Naruto was surrounded by everyone who was there.

"Naruto Uzumaki! Stand down!" Tsunade demanded

"Or what?" Naruto asked

"Give it up, Naruto. You're surrounded. Do you honestly think you can take us all on?" Shikamaru asked

"I don't think I can. I know I can." Naruto said

"YOU BASTARD!" Narumi yelled

She was drawing on the nine tails chakra so her speed was enhanced, but not even fast enough to lay a finger on Naruto.

"You're too slow." Naruto said

He kept evading everything Narumi threw at him and eventually kicked her away, but then his movements were restricted.

"For somebody so smart, you sure didn't plan on me attacking you." Shikamaru said

"Using the shadow paralysis jutsu doesn't really count as an attack. I'd be more worried if Sakura and Hinata came after me, but not you." Naruto said

"Hurry up and knock him out." Tsunade said

Shikamaru went for the shadow strangulation jutsu, but it just stopped for some reason and then Naruto just walked right out of his jutsu.

"That's just brute strength he used. He's ridiculous." Shikamaru said and then Tsunade was grabbed from behind by a shadow clone

"Lady Tsunade!" Sakura said and now everyone got ready to attack

"NOBODY MOVE!" Naruto's clone yelled and put a kunai to her throat

"I want all of you to listen closely. Take one step and he'll cut her head off. He'll do it with no regrets since we don't like her anyway." Naruto said

"Bastard!" Kiba said

"Damn it! Listen, everyone! Don't let that stop you. Forget about me and just attack him! There's no other way!" Tsunade said

"Now that's what I call being a hokage. Sacrificing your life for the village. There's no better way to go out as hokage than sacrificing your life for the benefit of the village. The will of fire does burn bright with you, Tsunade Senju." Naruto said

"Naruto, what are you doing? Look around you. The village is destroyed, Jiraiya is near death, the elder toads are almost dead, the great toad sage is dead and so are countless battle toads." Minato said

"I know. It reminds you a bit of the third shinobi war when you killed thousands of iwa shinobi in an instant. Tell me something, Minato. How would you deal with a traitor of the leaf?" Naruto asked

"They will stand trial for their crimes and face the punishment befitting their crimes." Minato said

"You don't think Jiraiya isn't facing the right punishment for his crimes? In this trial, I'm the judge, jury and executioner." Naruto said

"Naruto, does this have anything to do with Shizuka? If it does, I healed her up and she should be waking up soon." Sakura said

"This is more than just Shizuka. He knows what he did and he has to pay the price." Naruto said

"Naruto, why destroy the village? If it's just Jiraiya you're after, why kill the civilians?" Kushina asked

"Don't worry. The civilians aren't dead. Well, the ones who haven't pissed me off or harmed the village aren't dead. They're safe. As for everyone else, they're dead." Naruto said

There was an audible gasp since everyone knows how Naruto was treated up until he graduated the academy so the list of people who treated him badly is extremely long and he admitted to killing them.

"The village being destroyed is the best thing that could have happened. It's time to begin a new legacy for this village and it starts with me destroying the former village that once hid away behind the so-called will of fire." Naruto said

"All of this because of a shitty childhood? Talk about throwing a temper tantrum." Kiba said

"Call it what you want, but it has to be done. Minato, do you remember our conversation from three years ago?" Naruto asked

"Our conversation?" Minato asked and then he thought about it

Flashback

"Naruto, let me ask you something." Minato said

"Go for it." Naruto said

"You're all for world peace and a better world. How far are you willing to go to make sure the world is peaceful?" Minato asked

"I'd become the world's number one enemy if it would mean everyone could get along and live in peace." Naruto said

"I see. Well, let's hope it doesn't come to that." Minato said

Flashback end

"I see. I can't stop you, can I?" Minato asked

"No. I mean you probably could, but then Tsunade's blood will be on your hands." Naruto said and calmly blocked a punch from Sakura

"We all took an oath to defend this village. First Menma, then Sasuke and now you're going against the village. I can not stand by while my friends betray us!" Sakura said

"Sasuke never liked you." Naruto said

Sakura gasped and gave Naruto the opening he needed to shove a low powered rasengan into her stomach, sending her crashing to the ground. Before he could do his next move, Narumi came back in her three tailed state and once again Naruto dodged everything she threw at him. He slapped a chakra suppression seal on her and watched as the nine tails chakra went away. The sharingan wielding Uzumaki kicked her away and then set up a barrier around himself and Jiraiya who was desperately trying to crawl away.

"Jiraiya of the legendary sannin. Lord thirds worst student. Resign yourself. No matter how strong one is, the end is often pitifully abrupt." Naruto said

Massive rasengan

Despite the cries coming from everyone behind his barrier, Naruto pointed his hand directly at the fallen sannin who was clinging to life. The rasengan in his hand grew so big that it started to destroy the very ground he was standing on. All everyone saw was a rasengan the size of a tailed beast and Jiraiya couldn't even scream since his throat was crushed. The explosion happened, all that was left once the smoke cleared was a gigantic crater. Jiraiya of the legendary sannin was no more.

"No." Tsunade whispered, as she dropped down to her knees

"You killed him!" Narumi said

She got ready to attack him until he held up his hand signaling her to stop.

"I wouldn't do that. The two toads don't look so well. Either attack me and they die or you heal them. It's your choice." Naruto said

"He's bluffing. He didn't kill Tsunade when Sakura attacked him." Shikamaru said

"True, but Tsunade didn't have a senbon impaled into her chest." Naruto said

"Dammit." Shikamaru replied

"We're leaving." Naruto said and turned around, but Shikaku used his shadow paralysis jutsu

"Inoichi! Now!" Shikaku said

"Right." Inoichi responded

Mind transfer...

Tsukuyomi

Naruto was quicker to the punch and trapped Inoichi in his toughest genjutsu. Inoichi collapsed to the ground three seconds later and Kakashi knew what happened.

"Everyone. Don't look into his eyes!" Kakashi said

"Dad! Dad, wake up!" Ino said

Naruto activated a seal that was on the ground and all of the remaining civilians started to appear. They were all knocked out, but they'd be waking up soon. Naruto looked around at his work and left the village. He was being followed closely and stopped when a chakra chain was lodged into a tree next to his head.

"You shouldn't have followed me." Naruto said

"Where will you go?" Kushina asked

"It's best if you don't know." Naruto said

"Where is Mito?" Kushina asked

"She's with Kurenai up on hokage mountain." Naruto said

"You know the anbu will come after you, right?" Kushina asked

"No they won't. The village will go on lockdown." Naruto said and tossed her scroll

"What is this?" Kushina asked

"While I was gone, I intercepted a message from a few Kumo shinobi. The raikage is calling for a Kage summit in iron country." Naruto said

"Why give me this?" Kushina asked

"Outside of Shizuka, I trust you the most." Naruto said and she jumped onto the same branch as him

"What happened to Shizuka?" Kushina asked

"What do you think?" Naruto asked

"It was Jiraya. How'd he even get to her? She was with you?" Kushina asked

"We were ambushed by Root anbu on our way to Nadeshiko. It was a well thought out plan by Jiraya and Danzo to separate us. They knew I would have to face Danzo because of the sharingan he possessed. Root anbu and members of Jiraya's spy network attacked Nadeshiko. Shizuka was weakened during the fight saving everyone and taken by Jiraiya who clearly had to fight her." Naruto said

"So you were killing a traitor. Let me tell Tsunade and I'm sure she'll forgive you. You can come back to the….

"I don't want her to know and I can't come back." Naruto said

"Why not?!" Kushina asked and wrapped him up in her chakra chains

"Mom, I've killed citizens, members of the council and anbu black ops. I could have killed the hokage and I destroyed the village." Naruto said and forced his way out of her chains

"Naruto." Kushina said

Tsukuyomi

After three seconds, Kushina was back in the real world and Naruto was standing right in front of her. Kushina went to say something, but stopped when she felt her oldest son pull her into a hug. She reciprocated the action and held onto him as tight as she could.

"I'm sorry." Naruto said and vanished

Kushina stared at the spot her oldest child was at and dropped down. She just lost another child who will no doubt go into the bingo book as an S class or even double S class shinobi with a kill on sight order. She touched her face and noticed that it was wet.

"I wasn't crying." Kushina said

Few days later

After Naruto's attack on the leaf village, he was officially put in the bingo book as the first ever SS class shinobi. He had a flee on sight order due to him easily destroying an entire village without trying. Shizuka finally woke up from her injuries and once she was told what happened, her first thought was to go look for Naruto, but she was ordered not to.

The entire village was being rebuilt with help from Tazuna who heard about the attack and was eager to help out the village that gave the wave freedom. Narumi went into her training even harder than before due to her wanting to bring Naruto back to the village to face his crimes. Kushina was silent on the entire situation because she knew Jiraiya did something, but she didn't know exactly what he did to make Naruto want him dead.

Minato was the one who was surprisingly the most quiet and everyone could tell that he knew something, but when he was asked what Naruto meant, his reply was always the same. He would not speak on something Naruto told him since Naruto clearly didn't want anyone else to know. The most he could do is hope that Naruto would be alive after the dust settles since Narumi told him that the two of them are destined to fight.

Narumi was given the task of escorting Tsunade to iron country for the Kage summit along with Shizuka. Neither of them were really paying attention due to the entire Naruto situation going up, but what happened next got their attention.

"ENOUGH OF THIS NONSENSE."

This yell came from the fourth Raikage, A who was pissed off at how the current meeting was going on and punched a hole in the desk. This led to all of the bodyguards from each Kage to jump into action. Mifune just looked around before letting out a deep sigh.

"This summit is a place of discourse, so please refrain from any more behavior that lacks civility." Mifune said

"Kankuro, Temari. Stand down." Gaara orders and his siblings nod

"Ao, Chojuro. It's alright." Mei calmly said

"Yes ma'am." Ao responded

The Tsuchikage just nodded his head at his guards while A pulled his arm out of the desk and begrudgingly took a seat.

"Narumi. Shizuka. I got this." Tsunade said

"Now, let's continue our discussion." Mifune said

"The hidden leaf, the stone, the sand and the midst. The akatsuki membership is composed of rogue shinobi from your villages. That's not all either. From our investigations, we know that among you and the earlier Kage there are those who have even used the akatsuki." A said

"The Kage used them?" Gaara asked

"That's why I don't trust any of you. I have no interest in any discourse, but the reason I summoned you all here is to ultimately question your loyalties!" A exclaimed

"What do you mean that they used the akatsuki?" Gaara questioned

"You were the son of the Kazekage and you don't know anything? Just ask your village elders back home. You of the sand have previously used the Akatsuki in battle." A responded

"Currently, all five great nations are equally stable. They are moving from military expansion to disarmament. As strain as relations are between the nations and the threat of war diminishes, hidden villages considered military power by their nations merely become costly hindrances and yet at the same time, completely eliminating such villages has shown risks as well. However, if war suddenly breaks out, relying on ninja with no battle experience would be problematic. You'd lose the battle without question." Ōnoki explained

"The Kage would realize that one way to avoid that risk is to use mercenary soldiers. Namely soldiers from the akatsuki." Gaara added

"It takes effort and money to cultivate accomplished ninja from within one's own hidden village. The akatsuki makes war its livelihood and is made up of experienced professionals. Furthermore. They can be hired quite cheaply. Best of all, their soldiers have always delivered superior results." Ōnoki said

"Don't be pompous, Tsuchikage. The sand once used the akatsuki to destroy the hidden leaf. I'm talking about Orochimaru who had already left the akatsuki by then, but as a result, your father, the fourth Kazekage and the third hokage, Hiruzen perished. It's also hard to dismiss the thought that this was part of an even larger plan. The most suspicious of them all is the hidden mist. The mist never engages in diplomacy and it's rumored that the akatsuki started there." A said

"You're wrong." Tsunade said

"Excuse me?" A asked

"The akatsuki didn't start in the hidden mist village." Tsunade said

"How would you know that?" A asked

"The leader of the akatsuki was an old student of the late Jiraiya who took in three orphans during the second shinobi war. The akatsuki started in the hidden rain village and somehow managed to enter the hidden mist village." Tsunade said

"Why should I take your word? It's no secret that Konoha helped the mist end their bloody civil war." A said

"You should take my word considering the fact that three of my shinobi are responsible for the deaths of quite a few members of the akatsuki. In fact, two of them are my personal guards." Tsunade said

She signaled for them, making Narumi and Shizuka appear behind Tsunade.

"I'd like to introduce you all to Shizuka and Narumi Uzumaki-Namikaze. Shizuka has killed Sasori of the red sand while Narumi took out Kakuzu and the leader of the Akatsuki, Pain. In fact, despite me sending out warnings to all villages, only Suna and the hidden Mist village took me seriously." Tsunade said

"Since it's come to this, I'll be honest. We suspect that somebody behind the scenes was secretly manipulating Yagura, the man who was the mizukage before I took over. There's a possibility that that someone is the akatsuki." Mei admitted

"Seems like I'm just on time for the party." ? said

"Who's there?!" A demanded

A swirling vortex was shown and out came Tobi who Narumi has already fought.

"My name is Madara Uchiha. I am here to explain something to you all and once you understand it, I'll ask you a question." Tobi said

"What is it?" A asked

"It's about my plan. Project TsuKi no me." Tobi said

A wasn't having any of that and went to attack Tobi, but he just went straight through him.

"What?" A said to himself

"Just calm down, Raikage. Let's hear him out and take it from there." Ōnoki said

"Are all of you finally prepared to listen?" Tobi asked

"Just get on with it." Tsunade said

"It seems I miscalculated. I was hoping Danzo would be able to weaken some of the five Kage and I could take some of you hostage, but I guess that was too much to ask of him. His death threw a bit of a hole in my plans." Tobi said

"Take us hostage? What for?" Mei asked

"To ensure that project TsuKi No Me was implemented smoothly." Tobi responded

"I'm truly surprised that Madara Uchiha is still alive, but I'm confused. Why do you of all people need such roundabout tactics? With all your power, you should be able to bring any plan to fruition easily." Ōnoki said

"My injuries from my battle with the first hokage Hashirama were too severe. I currently have little power. I'm a shell of my former self." Tobi explained

"Oh I get it. This plan of yours is to restore your power." C, the bodyguard of A said

"Hm. I suppose you could say that, but there's so much more to it." Tobi said

"What exactly is this project TsuKi No Me?" Mifune questioned

"It'll be a long story, so I'll need to sit down." Tobi said and actually took a seat

"Stop messing around! What kind of plan is it?!" Kankuro asked

"All shall become one with me. In a possession form that unites all. There's an ancient stone tablet passed down within the Uchiha clan. It's in a room below the leaf. Upon it are written secrets engraved by the sage of six paths himself, but they cannot be read without visual powers. With the sharingan, Mangekyo sharingan and rinnegan respectively, more and more knowledge is progressively revealed." Tobi said

"Your story is becoming more and more unbelievable. The sage of the six paths is a myth." Ōnoki said

"It is the truth. He did indeed exist and he left that stone tablet behind." Tobi said

"Stop changing subjects! What does this sage of the six paths have to do with your plan anyway?" A asked

"Do any of you know why he became a legendary figure? One that is revered as a god amongst shinobi. This is where the link between that man and my purposes lies." Tobi said

"Madara Uchiha. You possess the Mangekyo sharingan and one of your fellow akatsuki members possessed the rinnegan. Do you know all of the tablet's secrets then?" Mei asked

"Yes. Let's hear them." Ōnoki said

"The sage once saved the world from a certain monster." Tobi said

"What monster?" Gaara asked

"Gaara, you once held one small piece of that monster sealed away within you. It was the aggregate of all of the tailed beasts. A creature that possessed almost infinite chakra. The ten tails!" Tobi said

"I thought there were only nine tailed beasts!" Temari said

"I just told you. It was the aggregate of all of the tailed beasts. The ten tails chakra was simply divided up to create the nine tailed beasts that we know today by the sage of the six paths hand." Tobi said

"I really don't like where this is going. That's why the akatsuki were out collecting all of the tailed beasts." Kankuro said

"The sage of the six paths developed a certain ninjutsu in order to protect the world from the ten tails, that ninjutsu is still being secretly passed down. It is the sealing jutsu process for jinchuriki. Yes, the sage was the ten tails jinchuriki. He sealed the ten tails within himself to suppress the monster. The sage who saved humanity from being terrorized by the beast was revered as a savior and as a god, but the sage feared that upon his death, the seal would come undone and the ten tails immense chakra would re-emerge. So in his final moments, using the last of his strength to partition the ten tails chakra into nine pieces and scatter them across the world. Then he sealed away the body of the monster now depleted of chakra and hurled it up into the sky. It became the moon." Tobi said

"This tale is ridiculous. I mean, what human being could do something like that?" Darui asked

"As the ten tails jinchuriki, the sage had already advanced beyond the realm of humanity." Tobi said

"I understand you want to collect all of the nine tailed beast chakra, but what do you plan to do with it?" Tsunade asked

"Revive the ten tails of course and become the ten tails jinchuriki. I would then use its tremendous chakra to strengthen my visual prowess and launch a certain jutsu." Tobi said

"What certain jutsu?" Ōnoki asked

"A super genjutsu where I project my eye off the moon's surface. An infinite Tsukuyomi. All humans living on this earth will be placed under my genjutsu and as a result, by controlling each and everyone of them, I will unify the entire world. I will create a world without hatred or war. Everything will become one with me. Everything will be united. That is the project TsuKi No Me." Tobi revealed

"You're insane! I'm not just handing the world over to you!" A said

"That kind of peace is just an illusion. Peace is only meaningful if it's achieved honestly." Gaara said

"So what exists inside such a genjutsu world? There's no hope, no dreams. It's just an escape." Mei said

"You want to unite the whole world, huh? Sounds like instead of uniting the world, you want to make the world yours and only yours." Ōnoki said

"Yet, with all of your talk, what have you five Kage accomplished? You of all people should know the truth by now. There is no hope. To hope is the equivalent to giving up and it is the biggest deception of them all. Now, turn over the remaining eight and nine tails. Cooperate with my plan or this is war." Tobi said

"War you say?" Gaara asked

"Eight tails? What do you mean? You captured Bee." A said

"The eight tails capture failed and he escaped. Now, there's a shinobi who's a perfect jinchuriki. There's no one quite like your younger brother." Tobi said and A started to go off, but he was ignored

"I won't give up Narumi." Gaara said

"Neither will I." Mei said

"What about you, Raikage?" Ōnoki asked

"I'll never hand over my brother!" A exclaimed

"I may not have any strength, but I do have the power of the seven tailed beasts that I've collected. You have no chance of winning." Tobi said

"We won't abandon hope." Gaara said

"Very well. I hereby declare war! The fourth great ninja war begins now!" Tobi said

"What? You're starting the fourth great ninja war now?! Are you mad?" Ōnoki asked

"The next time we meet will be in battle!" Tobi said and left in his typical fashion

"Alright, then. What should we do now?" Ōnoki asked

"Our nations must form an alliance. It's the only way to fight the power of seven tailed beasts." Gaara said

"Lord Raikage, you oppose this idea." Mei said

"It seems my little brother is safe, but we cannot allow ourselves to be bullied by the akatsuki anymore. Form the alliance and we'll settle this for good." A said

"In order to stop Madara's project infinite TsuKi No Me, we must keep the eight and nine tails out of his clutches. I believe it is imperative to get them into hiding as fast as we can." Mei said

"That's absolutely right! If the ten tails were revived, we'd be done for." Chojuro said

"Yeah. I can't even imagine the power Madara had amassed with six tailed beasts and if he possesses jutsu that utilizes them, that would be a secret weapon." Ōnoki said

"I agree. Otherwise he wouldn't have been so bold." Akatsuchi said

"I believe the allied shinobi forces must blend to use the strength of the eight and nine tails. Don't you all agree with that?" Ōnoki asked

"No. Absolutely not. This is also a war to protect both of them. I think the reason that Madara is waging war with his seven tailed beasts is because in his weakened state, it is too difficult for him to capture the eight and nine tails with the remaining akatsuki members. Even if it was possible the risks are too high. Also, he may be hoping to lure the two out with this war, for many reasons, using the tailed beasts in battle is not a wise strategy." Gaara said

"I agree. We must find a different plan." Mei said

"Yes. I also agree with the Kazekage." A said

"ABSOLUTELY NOT." Narumi yelled

"Narumi, calm down." Tsunade said

"Hell no! You honestly think I'm going to go into hiding just because the rest of you are a bunch of pussies?! No! I'm fighting! The akatsuki have taken too much from me. First Menma, then pervy-sage and now my last brother is a rogue ninja. All of this can be pointed back at the akatsuki. I am fighting and none of you will stop me." Narumi said

"You have to understand..."

Narumi cut Mei off

"No. YOU have to understand. This fight needs me and deep down you all know it. I didn't train for my entire life just to be cast aside and put away like some damsel in distress. I am a Kage level shinobi without the nine tails chakra, I can handle my own against anybody in this room." Narumi said

"You'd be falling right into Madara's hands. Do you not understand that?" Mei asked

"Of course I understand it! I'm fighting. I don't care who I have to go through, nobody is stopping me from ending the akatsuki once and for all." Narumi said and Shizuka placed an arm around her shoulders

"Don't worry, Narumi. I'll be right by your side helping you in this fight. It's what family does." Shizuka said

"I don't think that's a wise decision." Mei said

"Be honest, do any of you honestly think you can hold her back for long? She'll break out of wherever you trap her in and head straight for the battlefield. The one thing I've learned over the last few years is that the Uzumaki clan are some stubborn and hard headed bastards. Nothing you say or do will keep her from the fight." Shizuka said

"See! She agrees!" Narumi said

"I don't think you understand. We're going up against Madara Uchiha. The power he possesses is immense." Ōnoki said

"He's not Madara Uchiha." Shizuka said

"What?" A asked

"How do you know that?" Tsunade asked

"I've spent time with Naruto quite a bit when I came to Konoha and one of the things I've learned from him was about chakra usage. On top of that, he's told me a bit about the Uchiha clan and exactly how Madara was. This guy, whoever he is, has chakra flowing into his vocal cords to change up his voice. Plus, with how strong Madara was said to be, he could capture the tailed beasts on his own. This guy claiming he can't do it because of his fight with Hashirama is false. He's simply not even close to Madara Uchiha's level. Narumi can take him on, but she'll need help and that's what I'm here for. This is my sister and I've seen her do some amazing stuff." Shizuka said

"Oh let her fight. She's the daughter of the yellow flash and Konoha's red hot habanero." Tsunade said

"Yeah. I can totally handle this." Narumi said

"I don't know. Military strategy is a foreign concept to my little brother. I can never predict what he'll do. He might bring his own band of chaos to the battlefield." A said

"The same could be said for Narumi." Gaara said and Temari chuckled

"I'll say." Termari added

"Hey!" Narumi said

"Be that as it may, chaos is what we'll need as she's an Uzumaki. They know how to create chaos. She has my vote." Tsunade said

"Very well. The eight and nine tails will be under protective custody until Narumi gains control of the nine tails chakra. What do you say, Tsuchikage?" Mei asked and Ōnoki nodded

"We'll share our intel on killer be witn all you stone, mist, sand and leaf. Use it to put together tracking units and get them moving. Tell them to inform me the moment they locate the eight tails. My younger brother will only listen to me." A said

"Um, may I say something." Chojuro said

"What is it?" A asked

"Uh, right. Well, you see it's just..."

"SPIT IT OUT BOY." A yelled

"It's just, in the akatsuki there's another member of the seven ninja swordsmen of the mist, Kisame Hoshigaki. He has chakra equal to a jinchuriki and his sword, samehada or sharkskin, is the most terrible of all the blades. When his chakra and sword merge, he's human, but he's close to that of a jinchuriki. He's like a tailed beast without the tail or so my elders have told me. He's extraordinary. Please do not underestimate him." Chojuro said

"Yes. We already know about that, but anyway, are all of you sure about this plan?" Ōnoki asked

"Actually, I wonder about that. The world's first allied shinobi force is being formed here at the very moment and its strength is also unknown. Now there must be some risk in Madara using the seven tails beasts. Otherwise he wouldn't have come to this summit to try to negotiate. He must be facing unfavorable circumstances like us. Furthermore, we samurai shall also participate in this war. Is this more satisfying Tsuchikage?" Mifune asked and Ōnoki just grunted

"The question of who will lead the allied shinobi forces is still an issue. If you find any of us Kage suitable. Afterall, Mifune, you're the one who's disparaged every single one of us Kage." Ōnoki said and Mifune looked around

"I believe appointing lord A would be the wisest choice to make." Mifune said

"You found him unsuitable because he's ruled by his emotions and relies on brute strength." Ōnoki complained

"With the eight tails still alive, I believe the Raikage will stay calm. Also, he built a consensus with you earlier and was able to come up with a counter strategy. The Raikage is the only one who can control the eight tails. A tailed beast that's key to the upcoming conflict." Mifune explained

"Mizukage, Kazekage, hokage. Are you okay with that?" Ōnoki asked

"Oh for fucks sake will you just shut your old ass up? You just basically asked for him to pick a leader. The Raikage is the only suitable person for that. Gaara and Lady mizukage are basically new, you're an old fart and lady Tsunade is best suited for organizing the medical corps for the alliance. By the way, stop referring to killer Bee as the eight tails. It's offensive. We have names." Narumi said and Tsunade sighed

"Despite her vulgar language, she's right." Tsunade said

"I agree. I'll put my faith in the Raikage." Mei answered

"Yes. We shall leave it to you." Gaara said

"Very well. I'll lead the allied shinobi forces. Ōnoki, since you're the only one who's battled Madara Uchiha, we'll need any intel you can give us. Now cooperate." A said

"You still like taking down everyone and ordering them around do you?" Ōnoki asked

"You don't have to trust me if you don't want to, but at this rate the entire shinobi world is in danger of eradication. Now is the time to put aside our personal feelings and work together." A said

"Well, I suppose it is better than losing this war. If this shinobi world were to disappear, I wouldn't be able to quarrel with you anymore. Alright. I'll cooperate. The allied shinobi forces is now formed. First we must report this to our respective feudal lords. " Ōnoki said

"I have just one request." Narumi said

"What is it?" A asked

"Since you all know Naruto Uzumaki is a rogue ninja, can you tell your shinobi to not engage?" Narumi asked

"Why would we do that?" Mei asked

"It's personal." Narumi said

All of the kage looked around before nodding their heads. No one from their villages will lay a hand on Naruto before she gets her hands on him.

However, while this summit was going on, a certain snake summoner emerged from one of the many curse marks he placed on test subjects throughout the years. On top of that, nobody once detected a blonde haired woman in a black cloak who was listening in the entire time. The woman quickly left and appeared next to Naruto who was on the roof. She removed her hood and it was a familiar ally

"How'd it go, Leone?" Naruto asked

"That guy in a mask you warned me about did show up and he's talking about reviving something called the ten tails." Leone said

"The ten tails? Never heard of it." Naruto said

"If it helps, he needs the power of all nine tailed beasts before he can actually put his plan into motion. He wants to become the ten tails jinchuriki to use something called the infinite Tsukuyomi." Leone said

"An infinite dream basically. He wants everyone to live in a false reality, but why?" Naruto asked

"He said he wants to create a world without hatred. His plans aren't that different from your dream." Leone said

"He wants to enslave people inside of a dreamworld for eternity. I just want everyone to be free and live their lives in peace." Naruto said

"Oh. Anyway, he actually had the nerve to politely demand they hand over the eight and nine tails, but when they refused, he declared the start of the fourth shinobi war." Leone said

"Fourth shinobi war, huh? What of Narumi?" Naruto asked

"Oh. She's a real firecracker. They wanted to hide her away for the war and she obviously hated that idea. For now, she's going away to train with the eight tails jinchuriki to control the power of the nine tails. The four kages actually decided to form the first allied shinobi alliance." Leone said

"Thanks." Naruto said and tossed her a bag of money

"This is going to help the rebuild out massively. What will you do next?" Leone asked

"I need to find somebody. I know he's alive, but he's a slithery bastard." Naruto said and summoned a wolf

"Leone, are you going back home?"

"I am. Don't forget to check out my lounge whenever you visit us again." Leone said

"I won't." Naruto said and Leone left with the wolf summon

Jiraiya and Danzo are dead. Tobi declared war and Narumi was about to get more training. Naruto now had to figure out how to find the snake sannin to have a discussion with him about something that would help in the war.
