Note: This will be a Naruto/Ino fic and some other pairings that you can vote for. The story won't start off with Naruto wanting to destory Konoha, but don't worry. By chapter 6 or 7 he will be on the run and toward another village. So all of you fans of Naruto beating up Konoha just be patient with me.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
Within the body of one Uzumaki Naruto resided a beast of unfathomable power and destructive force, the strongest of all biju, the one and only Kyuubi no Yoko. If one were to see this ruler of demons right now they would think he was your average calm woodland creature… that just happened to overflow with an aura of pure malice. Said creature was currently resting inside his cage of 18 years, and in front of him seemed to be a notebook along with a pen. Both objects were hovering in the air, controlled by the malevolent chakra that belonged to the kitsune. Where the book and pen came from, one can only imagine.
"As I have observed from my stay in this brat and his Human World, the making of a Great Shinobi is not as complicated as some make it out to be," said the Kyuubi, looking at his book with lazy, carefree eyes, while at the same time using his insurmountable control over his chakra to control the pen and write in the notebook. On the top of the page he was writing on, were the words 'Great Shinobi'. Looking foward, the fox saw that the second side of the brat was beginning to stir and grinned.
'This book is going to be bad ass.'
Fast Foward 3 Days
"So," asked Naruto with a sadistic grin as he looked forward at Gai's team, "you want to die together or one at a time?" The three shinobi were taken aback by their friend's newfound ruthlessness as they unconsciously took a step backwards. Getting into their battle stances, they knew that they couldn't go into this battle halfheartedly. Naruto's grin grew larger as he stared at his once comrades.
"No one will be dieing here today, Naruto," spoke Neji while in his Jyukken (Gentle Fist) stance. The blonde didn't respond as he instead looked toward the village, watching as several columns of smoke ascended toward the sky. The others allowed their eyes to follow the direction that Naruto's were staring at, and found themselves looking toward the chaos that the blonde himself had caused. As they watched, all three of them suddenly found themselves being sent hurdling further into the forest as pain exploded through their bodies. Once they managed to collect themselves the three nin looked up to see Naruto shaking his head in mock disappointment for breaking one of the most basic shinobi rules.
'Never take your eyes off the enemy,' thought the members of Team Gai at once. The three didn't have much time to think however as they suddenly felt an almost unfathomable amount of killer intent sent their way.
"If no one will die, I'll just have to make sure that they wished they had," spoke Naruto as his chakra flared and his hurricane like wind/water started to tear up the very ground beneath him. Unbeknownst to Naruto the members of Team Gai felt their bones chill as the temperature in the air suddenly fell a few degrees.
Present Time
Two ninjas were currently walking at a leisurely pace toward their destination, Konohagakure no Sato. One of these ninjas, clearly the older of the two as one could tell by looks alone, was dressed in a green and red wardrobe, along with red sandals and a horned headband with the kanji for the word 'oil' on it. He looked to be a man somewhere in his mid 50s and was rather tall, standing at about 6'2", and also had long, spiky white hair which was tied to a ponytail once it reached the end of his neck. His face was stern and strong had red line tattoos running down has eyes. His name was Jiraiya, of the Densetsu no Sannin and author of the Icha Icha line of books.
The other shinobi, who was the younger of the two and was around 5'10", wore black sweat pants with white and orange flames decorating it all around. He also wore an orange t-shirt which only had the left sleeve, the right one being torn near the shoulder blade. Ragged white bandaged were wrapped around both the nin's arms, each starting from the elbow and ending at the mid-finger joints. On the back of his shirt was a red spiral, as well as a nodachi, which was in its sheath and was tilted diagonally to the right. It was held there by a thin white rope that went around the man's back and to the front. His face was akin to one deceased Yondaime Hokage, save for his much more lively eyes and the three defining whisker marks on each of his cheeks. His wardrobe was completed by his Konoha headband, the fabric of which was black rather than the normal blue, and his white and orange shoes, which were similar to what some may call "Dub-Zero"s if it weren't for the fact that instead of pictures of a man with a ball on it, it had pictures of the Golden Flash's three-pronged kunai. (Disclaimer: Don't own Nike).
His body resembled that of the older man next to him, muscular and firm, while at the same time being compact, quick, and nimble. This allowed him to wield the nodachi on his back with ease while others would probably have trouble doing the same. All in all the man was attractive. This one's name was Uzumaki Naruto, Jinchuuriki of the legendary Kyuubi no Yoko, and the most surprising ninja of Konoha.
The aformentioned nin turned to look at his sensei with a look of mild irritation on his face, "Ero-Sennin, how much longer till we get there?"
"Gaki, we'll get there when we get there ok?" replied the Toad Sannin for what must have been the tenth time that day.
"That doesn't tell me anything," grumbled Naruto, "why don't we just run instead of walking anyway?" he inquired.
"It's to hot to run, gaki," said Jiraiya, "if we run we might smell bad when we get there. I don't want my legions of fans to think I; the great ninja Jiraiya-sama of the Sannin doesn't have proper hygiene."
"What fans are you talking about? It couldn't be the perverts that read your books," stated Naruto. While he would almost never admit it, Naruto no longer looked down on Jiraiya's books. Rather, he quite enjoyed them, undoubtley a result of the ungodly amount of peverted ness that his sensei wielded along with the surprising emergence of the Kyuubi, who proved to also be quite the pervert. Just as he was about to succumb to his sensei's demands of walking, an idea popped into the blonde's head.
"Hey Ero-Sennin, since today is Saturday, the really hot and sexy women are probably at the hot springs since both ninja and civilians usually don't work today," stated Naruto. The plan yeilded the desired effect as Jiraiya started to blush and let out perverted giggles as his nose started to bleed at the thought of all the 'research' he would be able to do.
"What are we doing walking at this pace brat? We have to get to Konoha NOW!" exclaimed Jiraiya as he ran at speeds that rivaled Konoha's two resident beasts, leaving a cloud of dust as he ran to get to the nearest Konoha hot spring he could find.
"Finally," whispered Naruto with a grin.
And so with that, the duo of teacher and apprentice were off, their destination clear and their resolve to get there renewed.
--
Once the two were within sight of the village, they slowed their pace as they gradually made their way to the village gates. Once there, they were greeted by the sight of two Chuunin who seemed to occupy themselves by sitting down and reading the same orange book that one Hatake Kakashi could undoubtedly be found reading. Once they heard the footsteps of the two approaching nin, they lowered their books and stood up, trying to look as dignified as one could be after reading a book from the Icha Icha series.
"Greetings Jiraiya-sama, Uzumaki-san," spoke the Chuunin to the left.
The Sannin nodded in their direction as he began to walk past the two, wanting to get to Tsunade and then the hot springs quickly as possible. Then there was the fact that he didn't want to risk that Naruto coming out and killing these guys. Just as the pair were about to walk past the guards, they were stopped.
"Wait! Jiraiya-sama, would you mind…." said the two Chuunin while holding out their Icha Icha books along with pens, looking at the Toad Sannin with hopeful eyes.
"Why of course I wouldn't, anything for my loyal fans," said Jiraiya. Once he was done signing the books both he and Naruto left the Chuunin and made their way to the Hokage Tower.
"See Naruto, we just entered the village and already we have met two of my thousands upon millions of fan," boasted Jiraiya, with all the air of a SSS-Class pervert. Naruto could only sigh as he realized that there would be no persuading his sensei that he wasn't the living personfication of awesome. The two ninja continued their walk, and Naruto couldn't help but notice how little had changed. The only noticeable difference he could see was that there were more people than the last time he had been in Konoha.
Thinking about the last time he had been in Konoha caused Naruto a bit of melancholy and resentment as he was reminded of why exactly he was banished.
Flashback
Sai, Sakura, and Yamato were running as fast as they could to Konoha. On Yamato's back was the unconscious form of Uchiha Sasuke, while on the back of Sai was the body of one Uzumaki Naruto. Naruto and Sai had been the first to encounter Sasuke in Kusagakure, and while Naruto was still weak from his fight with Orochimaru, his will to bring back Sasuke had allowed him access once more to his 4-Tailed Kyuubi form. While he was only in this form for a short amount of time it had been enough to surprise and knock out Sasuke. After making sure that both Naruto and Sasuke were still alive and in stable condition, Sai, Sakura, and Yamato left and ran to the village.
When they finally got there the two guards at the gate were shocked to see the somewhat bloody and beaten up body of a certain biju container and the relatively unharmed body of the younger of the last two surviving Uchiha. The group ran past the guards and made their way straight toward the Hokage's office for two reasons. The first was because Naruto, despite the healing of the Kyuubi, still needed some medical attention, and who better to get it from than a certain slug princess. The second was because the same slug princess would need to be consulted with upon the fate of a certain Sharingan user.
Once they got to the tower Yamato barged right into the Hokage's office… which was the equivalent of walking straight into the den of a hungry lion. Through sheer luck alone, Yamato managed to avoid having his head knocked clean off courtesy of the fist of a certain Gondaime Hokage. Once Sakura had managed to fully wake her master up, Tsunade was surprised to see what she saw. She immediately started to check Naruto for injuries as well as being informed by Yamato what exactly occurred during their mission.
Once the village as well as the council knew the second of the two remaining Uchiha had come back they were overjoyed. That would not last long however when they asked Sasuke, accompanied by an ANBU squad, how exactly he was brought back. Sasuke, who was incredibly crazy ass pissed at being brought back, had told them that Naruto had captured him by turning into some sort of fox thing and knocking him out. While Sasuke didn't know it, since he was just assuming the fox transformation was a new jutsu of Naruto's, he had given the council all the grounds on which they could banish Naruto on. To the council it was a great day, get rid of the demon on the grounds that he could no longer control the Kyuubi and gain the Uchiha.
However Tsunade would not let Naruto be banished without a fight. She insisted that without Naruto, Sasuke would not have been brought back. Tsunade did have some supporters on the council, namely the grandparents and parents of those whose grandchildren or children were friendly with the outgoing blonde ninja, although they weren't exactly ecstatic in their defence. In the end Tsunade was able to force the council to only banish Naruto a total of 3 years. While most nins were indifferent as to the fate of the Uzumaki, there were a number who were upset. These shinobi came namely from the Rookie 9 and Gai's team, all of whom had no understanding as to why the council would banish Naruto. Many, with many meaning around 99.9, of the villagers however were thrilled. Some notable exceptions were those working at the Ichiraku Ramen Bar. Since Jiraiya was currently nowhere to be found, Naruto left shortly after Asuma died, which was the next time anyone would see the hermit.
Flashback Over
When the two had finally made it to the Hokage's tower, they decided that if they used the door it would take awhile for them to be allowed into Tsunade's office. So they used the only other available entrance, the window. Once inside they found what they expected to see, a shit load of paper work and a sleeping blonde. Naruto, not wanting to wait for Tsunade to wake up, decided to wake her up himself. For you see, even with all the maturity the blonde had gained over the years, he would sooner die than to miss a chance to annoy his favorite elder blonde.
"Oy, Obaa-chan, wake up!" yelled Naruto. Jiraiya sighed as he got as far away as Naruto as possible.
'He's going to be in a life threatening situation in about three seconds,' thought Jiraiya. The instant he finished thinking that Naruto was hit right in the face and sent on a trip to the other side of the tower.
'Ok, maybe two seconds,' pondered the man. Once Naruto had made it back to the office and Tsunade had fully awoken she was pleasantly surprised to see the people in her office. She immediately got up and gave Naruto a hug.
"It's great to see you two," she said releasing Naruto, "Shizune, get in here and see whose here."
"Where is my hug Tsunade-hime?" asked Jiraiya with his arms outstretched and a large lecherous smile on his face. Tsunade looked at him with cold eyes that would make Itachi sweat bullets.
"Don't think I forgot what happened last time I hugged you," stated Tsunade with a voice that promised an almost instant death if Jiraiya responded in a different way than she wanted.
"It was an accident Tsunade-hime, it's just they are so big that I…" that was as far as the old hermit went before he was sent crashing all the way to the bottom floor of the tower by means of a certain incredibly pissed off, busty blonde. Naruto sweatdropped as he couldn't help but feel sorry for his teacher.
At that same moment Shizune decided to come in. After hearing the racket that was caused in the usually quite office, she quickly knew who were in the Hokage's room. She also deduced that from the sound of breaking floors that when she entered the room there would be one less person in there than she previously expected.
"Naruto-kun, it's so nice to see you!" exclaimed Shizune as she walked up to the blonde and gave him a hug. "Look at how much you've grown," she added.
"It's good to see you too Shizune-neechan, how have you been?" Naruto asked with curiosity.
"I've been okay, a little bored thought, but then again who wasn't when the village no longer had its loudest, most surprising ninja?" replied Shizune, "but Lee and Gai are always good for a laugh, and Ino is pretty much just as loud as you," finished Shizune.
The three in the room continued to converse with each other, with Tsunade and Shizune telling about the events that occurred in the village over the past three years, and Naruto telling them what he and Jiraiya had been doing. They continued until they heard a groaning noise in the hallway. They all turned their attention to the doorway and a few seconds past by before the beat up form of one Toad Sannin came in.
"Jiraiya-sama, it's nice to see you," Shizune politely greeted. Jiraiya smiled and held out his arms, putting on the same lecherous smile he had when facing Tsunade.
"How about a hug, Shizune?" Jiraiya hopefully questioned.
"Don't think I have forgotten about the last time I hugged you, Jiraiya-sama," was the reply of Shizune, who had the same stare and voice that her master had used just moments ago. Jiraiya was not a Sannin for nothing, he was smart, and after seeing what happened to him when replying to Tsunade, decided to quickly end the conversation with a fast reply of 'Got cha'.
The four of them continued to talk about happenings around the village as well as the information Jiraiya and Naruto had gathered on Akatsuki and Orochimaru. An interesting bit of news that the females heard from the males was that the reason the Akatsuki had taken another 3 year hiatus was because there was a certain order that the biju had to be captured and sealed in. If sealed in the incorrect order, the statue that held the biju would not work for 3 years. This order was obviously complex, for none of the S-ranked shinobi had yet figured it out. Their conversations ended however when a hawk flew in through the window with a scroll on its back. The hawk was unusual in that it had purple feathers that were yellow at the tips.
"That's not good," Tsunade whispered as she began untying the scroll from the bird.
"What's wrong?" Naruto asked.
"Well you see Naruto-kun, shortly after you and Jiraiya-sama left, Tsunade-sama came up with the idea that every ninja team should have their own personal message hawk, which they could personally design, in case they needed backup or had something urgent they needed to tell us," said Shizune before continuing, "and this bird belongs to Team 10."
"How can you tell?" asked Naruto. However it struck him once he took a good look at the hawk. Who in Konoha enjoyed the color purple? Also who in Konoha, beside Naruto, Tsunade, and Inoichi had blonde hair?
"Ino-chan personalized the bird, right?" the question came out more as a statement.
"Yep, Ino and her team are currently on a mission to hunt down or possibly capture two members of the Akatsuki. Reports tell use their names are Hidan and Kakuzu," Tsunade said, "for this hawk to be here has to mean they might need help." Once Tsunade read the letter, which had simply written on it the words 'we might need help' as well as a location somewhere in Fire Country, the theory of them being it trouble was solidified.
"Oy Baa-chan let me go and help them," said Naruto. Tsunade looked at Naruto with questioning eyes before turning to Jiraiya, with eyes that seemed to ask him if he thought Naruto was strong enough to go and fight against two of the key members of Akatsuki. Jiraiya smiled.
"The gaki might be annoying, but I made sure that he will be just as strong, as well as perverted, as I was in my prime one day," Jiraiya proudly stated. This seemed to assure Tsunade that Naruto could go and was about to tell him he had her permission, but that was before she realized what her fellow Sannin had fully said.
"What the fuck? Just as perverted?!" yelled Tsunade so loudly that it startled every single person in Konoha.
"Hey the Kyuubi helped too!" claimed Jiraiya, but his efforts to calm the Hokage were futile as he was sent flying across Konoha. After a while of awkward silence, Tsunade called in an ANBU and told him to gather Sasuke, Yamato, and Sakura and tell them to meet her at the front gate in 3 hours.
"What about Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto asked after the ANBU left.
"Kakashi volunteered to be the leader of Team 10 since this is classified as an S-Class mission, so he is currently not here. And Naruto, be sure to take Jiraiya with you, you might need his help," Tsunade told the young man, "anyway your team will leave in 3 hours at the main gate, will you be ready?" Tsunade asked.
"Hell yea Baa-Chan I'm ready right now!" Naruto stated excitedly.
"Good Naruto-kun, because Tsunade-sama and I would like to spend some time to find out just how much truth there was in Jiraiya-sama's words," stated Shizune in a dark tone, obviously referring to the Sannin's claim that Naruto would soon be just as perverted as he was (this is if he currently wasn't already). The male sweat dropped as he began searching his mind for a way to get out of this predicament.
"Well you see… Ero-Sennin don't you dare try to touch Baa-chan's and Shizune-neechan's asses!" shouted the blonde boy as he pointed behind the two women. Said women instantly looked behind them, looking for all possible traces of the SSS-Class pervert. When they could find none they looked back to where Naruto was, or more accurately where he had been.
All that was in his place was a piece of paper with the drawing of a male stick figure with long spiky hair and sandals labeled 'Ero-Sennin' and a stick figure of a fox with nine tails labeled 'the fur ball'. There was also the words 'perverted ness' written on it and a line that connected the words and a pair of katanas, which were wielded by both the fox and the man. The two seemed to be using the weapons to cut through a wall that was labeled 'sexual morals' and on the other side of the wall was the picture of another male stick figure with spiky hair labeled 'Naruto'. Both Tsunade and Shizune sighed and decided to figure out who would be best suited to fix all the damage done to the tower.
--
Naruto sighed as he ran as fast as he could from the tower.
'Damn you Ero-Sennin, I could have died,' thought Naruto. Thinking of said nin reminded Naruto that he was supposed to come with him and his team. This caused Naruto to stop on top of one building and bite his thumb until he drew a small amount of blood.
"Kuchiyose no Jutsu," said Naruto after going through the necessary hand seals and slamming his hand onto the roof of the house. Once all the smoke caused by the jutsu cleared, standing in its place were two small toads, one mostly yellow and one mostly orange.
"Oy, Gamakichi, Gamatatsu, go find Ero-Sennin for me and tell him to meet me and my team at the main gate in three hours, we have a mission" Naruto told the toads.
"Sure things bro," replied Gamakichi.
"Can we get candy before we go?" asked Gamatatsu before being dragged off by his brother. Naruto couldn't help but smile as he saw them leave. Once the two summons were out of eyesight the blonde's thoughts drifted to Team 10 as he looked towards the horizon.
'Hang in their guys,' thought Naruto. While in his thoughts a few civilians who were within sight thought it wise to start throwing rocks at the blonde nin.
"Get the hell out of here demon!" yelled one of the villagers. At this exclamation, Naruto's second side manifested as he stopped the rocks in midair by simply looking at them, much to the villagers' confusion. He then sent a large amount of killing intent at the 5 or so villagers, causing them to pass out.
'Psh, he wastes his time in this village.' With that thought Naruto set out to do some light training before meeting up with his teammates.
Once again, inside the body of one Uzumaki Naruto, the Kyuubi was writing in his notebook. However this time he was writing in the back of the book, as opposed to the front as he had been doing earlier. On top of the page he was writing on were the words 'Fun Facts'.
"One of the many mysteries of male life is how exactly women seem too know we are perverts with a single glance. To answer your question you must first know of a book that has been around since before even I, the Kyuubi no Yoko, had come into being. This book is the source of their knowledge, and it is their greatest weapon against us, the male population. It is called 'The Successful Women's Guide to Perverts'." the beast said, talking to the damp air and water that was located all around him. As was before, he was speaking while at the same time using his demonic red chakra to write in the book.
"Well that is enough for today," the Kyuubi stated, once again speaking to objects that would never talk back, before putting the notebook and pen down and going to sleep.
First Chapter is done. Yay!
Please R/R.
