I don't own Naruto, Devil May Cry, or any other works that may be used in this fic

That being said
It's been around 11 years since I've touched any of these stories. I tried to make a comeback back in 2011, but whenever I tried writing I would ultimately fail. Even just doing spelling and grammar fixes was far too much for me, but my muse has, so to speak, returned. With DMC 5 being released, at time of writing this I still haven't played it so avoid spoilers please, and rewatching through a large portion of Naruto and Shippuden. I think I'm ready. Only time will tell I guess? In the meantime, while I'm still typing up Chapter 3 of this story, enjoy the revamp of chapters 1 and 2.


We begin on a dark night, within Konoha, Shinobi are running about, buildings are ablaze, and a giant nine-tailed fox is right outside the gates killing Shinobi left and right with it's front paws, it's tails furiously raging behind it, right as it leaned down to jump an enormous toad appeared in front of it with a blond man and a small bundle on the toad's back.

"Hey, Bunta, this will be our last fight together, so let's make it count." the blond man said as he faced the giant fox and threw a tri-pronged kunai and vanished in a yellow flash, he appeared on the back of the fox and began making hand signs, once he finished a large, ghostly man, appeared behind him an dstretched a transparent arm through the man and into the fox and began to pull the soul of the fox, the man then sealed the fox's soul into the small bundle, the fox's body vanished into the complex seal on the child and the man's brilliant blue eyes dulled as the ghostly man devour the life forces of both the young man and the fox, as the two humans fell to the ground the giant toad, Gamabunta, launched his tongue out and stopped the two from hitting the ground. Once the pair was safely placed at the gate to the village he vanished with a puff of smoke

Later that day the Third Hokage, Sarutobi, told the villagers of what happened to the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, including the sealing of the Kyuubi No Kitsune. Most of the villagers were okay and trusted Minato's seal, while others wanted the demon child dead. With that Sarutobi made the law no one was allowed to even utter a word about the seal or that the Kyuubi was anything but dead, and any attempts on the young child's life would be considered treason and grounds for immediate execution. While the rest of Konoha began partying at the defeat of the Kyuubi no Kitsune the little baby, a bright blue eyes baby named Naruto Uzumaki, was currently being taken to the Hokage's office where he would stay for the night.

Outside Konoha a man with silver hair, red duster with a black muscle shirt underneath, black cargo jeans, and a large, thick, decorated sword whose tip jutted out from the tip and formed what looked like mini scythes(1) was walking towards the village with a grin on his face, the wind blew his duster behind him, a dog tag clanking around his neck, the name on the dog tag read 'Dante'. Dante then jumped high into the air and a surge of red chakra revealed a man covered with a shadowy visage and leathery wings, after a few moments of stretching his current form, he flew quickly towards the Hokage's tower before anyone could see him.

Outside the Hokage's office things were going less than stellar for Dante, his anger beginning to get the best of him."Look woman, I KNOW Ojisan is busy, now move outta my way before I lose my temper!" Dante shouted, the woman said something about the Hokage being too busy to see anyone. "Well I'm not just anyone, so I'm going to flip this coin, if it lands on heads your dead." he said as he flipped a coin with an enraving of a woman on it(2), he snatched the coin out of the air and revealed it to be heads. "Heads, your dead." Dante said as he easily moved the sword with a single hand, guiding it to plunge through her mid section.

Sarutobi busted his door down and lunged a staff at Dante, who blocked it with a single hand.

"Yo Oji, whats up?" Dante asked as he smirked at the relieved form of Sarutobi.

"I thought you were someone that was planning on killing Naruto, it wouldn't make the first attempt someone's made, my secretary was getting mad at all the people needing to see 'me', so I told her to tell anyone else that came that I was incredibly busy and couldn't see anyone." Sarutobi said as he walked back into his office and plopped down in his seat, the still sleeping form of Naruto in his crib caught Dante's attention.

"Woah woah woah, you had another kid? At your age?" Dante asked with a somewhat serious tone, Sarutobi nearly fell off his chair laughing.

"No, this is Minato's son, Naruto Uzumaki, the poor kid won't grow up with a father as Minato defeated the Kyuubi by sacrificing his own life sealing it within Naruto." as Sarutobi said this, his previously happy face dropped into one of a great sadness.

"The Nine tails attacked? I wonder why I didn't see it." Dante said, Sarutobi let out a sad chuckle before retorting.

"Probably too busy with your strawberry sundaes." Sarutobi said with slight sarcasm evident in his voice, Dante sheepishly laughed.

"Speaking of which, does Konoha have any shops now that make them?" Dante asked, Sarutobi nodded and Dante let out a loud 'Hell yeah!", which caused Naruto to wake up screaming.

"You're gonna have to get him back to sleep first though." Sarutobi said, Dante nodded morosely.

"Aww man, fine." Dante said as he picked Naruto up and started talking to the boy calmly, talking about nonsensical things, and within a few minutes Naruto was sleeping soundly.

"Dante, I assume you rethought my offer, correct?" Dante nodded with a smirk and Sarutobi grinned, his wrinkled face lighting up with the first true smile since the defeat of the Kyuubi "Would you mind taking care of, and if possible, train Naruto?" Dante grinned with joy and nodded.

"Definitely old man, he's got one hell of a devil inside him now. He might even be able to learn Devil Trigger under my tutelage." Dante said before he scooped up Naruto and vanished in a poof of smoke reappearing in front of an abandoned building in the lower end district of Konoha, Dante smirked and opened the door, a thick layer of dust covered every inch of the small office space, with a few quick one handed seals, a wind swept all the dust outside. "Alright, now I need to go get Naruto's crib." Dante said as he returned to the Hokage's office and left with the crib Naruto had been in, after he placed the small blond baby back into it he pulled out five scrolls and unsealed everything inside them, a couple of beds, about twenty weapon cases full of swords and gauntlets, a refrigerator, a wardrobe, an office desk, two pictures of two remarkably similar blonde women, and a large sign that read 'Devil May Cry', Dante picked the sign up with ease and hung up on the outside of the building before heading back inside and moving everything into a suitable position. He pulled out a head band from his jeans and put it on his left arm, the symbol on it was that of Konoha, Dante grinned as he walked out into the streets of Konoha and saw that right beside his shop was a sundae shop, with an ecstatic smirk he quickly dashed in and tossed some cash down on the bar, the only person here was a young woman, who seemed elated that a customer was here.

"One strawberry sundae." Dante said, the young girl quickly prepared his order and put it in front of him, our silver haired half-devil immediately set to work devouring it.

"Thank you sir." the woman said as she attended to a customer who had just walked in, he was an unassuming individual wearing a hooded travelling cloak and only ordered a small meal. Once Dante was satisfied, he began walking out, right before he fully walked out he pulled his sword out and flung it at the customer, the man dodged the sword just in time, the sword embedded itself into the bar and Dante dashed to it, pulling the sword out of the bar he quickly slashed the man in half. Dante pulled a missing nin head band out of the man's pocket and pulled a bingo book out of a pocket on his cargo pants, he identified the man to have a rather sizable bounty on his head, so Dante sealed the man's head into a scroll, apologized for making a scene, threw a couple thousand ryo onto the counter to pay for the damage, and dragged the body to his shop so he could dispose of it.

"Man, I just got hella lucky. This man's head was worth one hundred million Ryo." Dante said as he began thinking about how he would use that well earned money, he looked at Naruto and decided EXACTLY what he would use it for, he made a clone of himself and, with the scroll in hand, dashed out, telling the clone to take care of Naruto and not let ANYONE in the shop other than himself, once he finished he Devil Triggered and flew out of Konoha, eventually landing at a large bar, where he released the state before walking in. "HEY! I got the head of the man with the nick name Shinigami!" Dante shouted, everyone looked at him and a man in a crisp, freshly pressed, white suit walked forwards.

"I am the man who will be paying for his head, may I see it? I would like to verify before I simply hand over the bounty." the man asked, Dante nodded before pulling the scroll out and unsealing the head, the man in the suit inspected the head thoroughly, ensuring that it was, in fact, the head of his mark. "Well then, here is the payment, as promised." the man said as he tossed a suitcase to Dante, who quickly inspected it before departing.

"Good to do business with you." Dante said as he vanished in a poof of smoke back to his shop, he dismissed his clone ,sat down at his desk, and began splitting up the money in half, half for him and half for, later on, Naruto. Once done with the splitting, Dante took his duster off, tossed it on his desk, and laid down in his bed, half an hour later he fell into a deep sleep, blissfully unaware of what the following years would bring.

During the next eight years Dante realized something, Sarutobi had tricked him into taking Naruto as his adoptive child and protege.

At 9 months old, Naruto skipped crawling and went straight to running. Dante panicked every time he heard a loud bang for months, until realizing the devil inside the baby was healing every single injury the boy got.

At one year of age, Naruto was communicating about the same as any other child, but his favorite word had become "Party!" Dante believed this to be because of how often he'd say "It's time for one hell of a party!" when he would leave to go for a quick mission or bounty hunt.

At two, Naruto had developed the habit of sitting in the office, gazing at all the Devil Arms in Dante's still growing collection. His eyes always transfixed on an icy blue sword or the gauntlets that seemed to burn with the fires of hell. The first few months after Naruto's 2nd birthday Dante was forced to tell him not to try to touch or grab any of them endless times. Around month five was when it finally sank in.

At three was when problems began. Naruto's development was closer to being 6 or 7. He would sneak out from his babysitter, usually one of the chunin who personally knew Dante and what the Devil Arms could do to someone not at least a half blooded demon. One such day, after Dante had been gone for a week due to a mission in Suna, Naruto managed to slip out entirely undetected by his chunin babysitter, as he ran around the town multiple villagers recognized him. While most were happy to see the blonde spitfire, there were a very large amount who refused to see the child as anything but a bundle of evil. Two such men, clearly as drunk as one could be while still retaining most motor function, threw bottles at him and chased him down a dead end alley. Once he was cornered he began wailing like the toddler he was, the men, in an effort to keep him quiet, overpowered him, gagged him, bound him, and then proceeded to beat him ruthlessly. With each punch, the blue eyes of Naruto would leak more and more tears, until his tear ducts seemed to be dry, at that point each punch seemed to make his body spark with a burnt orange like lightning. Finally as they took a heavy brick and prepared to end the boy's life, it happened. The entirety of his eyes went black as his body pulsed out the orange energy, his hair lengthened, his teeth sharpened, 9 tails as blonde as his hair grew, two large wings appeared on his back, and two distinctively fox-like ears appeared. His binds were burnt away, the gag ripped from his mouth by his now razor sharp claw. He glared at the two men, who were now flat on their rear ends, with disdain. As Naruto began to move a silver haired boy wearing a jounin flak jacket, a headband covering his left eye, and a mask covering the lower half of his face, appeared and knocked him out with a sharp strike to his neck. He then turned to the two men and glared at them intently with his right eye, drawing two kunai from a pouch and throwing them into their throats. He then picked up the now sleeping form of Naruto and returned him to his home. The chunin assigned was panicking as he was tearing the office apart and the young jounin walked in with the blonde. After several minutes of scolding the chunin, the jounin allowed the chunin to continue his job and left in a rush.

At age 7, Naruto had never went into his Devil Trigger state again, and the silver haired jounin never told anyone of what he saw. At this point he was operating as if he was 9 or 10 as far as motor skills, vocabulary, and other things. It was after his 7th birthday that Dante talked to him about the ninja academy. Naruto was, unsurprisingly, all about joining as soon as possible. Dante promised him that he would have him enrolled as soon as he turned eight years old. During the following year, the two developed an even stronger bond. As Dante stayed home or did missions that allowed him to be home quickly, he trained Naruto in the basics of sword fighting, kunai and shuriken throwing, and even a few weak ninjutsu. In six months time, Naruto was doing well with everything except ninjutsu and genjutsu. Dante made a decision and sent a carrier pigeon to an unknown destination.

In Suna:
A man with slicked back silver hair and wearing a blue trench coat with what appeared to be white tribal decoration running up the hem on the right side, looping around the neck, and ending chest level on the left side took the note from the carrier pigeon he had received. He wore no headband, but the katana on his side, as well as the blue, transparent, floating swords spinning around him identified this man as a ninja, rogue or otherwise. He snarled for a moment as he began reading the letter before his face softened somewhat as he continue the letter, now reading aloud.
"Yo Verg! If you couldn't tell by the parchment, it's your twin bro Dante. I need your help, my adoptive son, Naruto, wants to be a ninja, but he's having some issues with chakra control. Seems like the devil in his stomach is giving him much larger reserves than anyone would have guessed. As we both know, you're the one with the superior control, so think you could come by and give me a hand? Love, your favorite brother, Dante Sparda" Vergil again snarled as the bottom of the letter was a crude drawing of Dante holding a small child with fox ears.

"I suppose I have no choice, family is family." Vergil thought aloud as he noticed two cloaked figures approach him with weapons drawn. "A pity, I was going to take my time eliminating you scum." With a snap of his fingers the many blades circling him vanished, reappearing in an arch formation and firing into the two cloaked figures. "That should have it. All threat neutralized." He said to the wind as he launched a single chakra sword into the distance and vanished.

Konoha:

A day or so after Dante sent off his letter, Vergil arrived at his door step and immediately began fighting with his brother, both Devil Triggered and clashed blades violently. They both stopped when they heard scream-crying from behind Dante.

"Yeah bro, so this is Naruto. He's been with me for a little over seven years now." Vergil immediately launched himself at the boy, moving his head this way and that, inspecting everywhere morally acceptable, before he nodded with a sharp smirk.

"He definitely has far larger of a chakra reserve than a normal person. With some practice he could become one of the strongest people alive. Especially if he can use the Devil Trigger ability. He could become as unstoppable as the two of us one day." without missing a beat he began going over everything Naruto knew about ninjutsu. With a scowl at how little he knew, Vergil pulled the boy into the back training area and began his strict training regime. Within a few hours of highly cruel and unusual training, Vergil deemed Naruto good to rest. Naruto learned an important lesson that day. Dad is scary when he's mad. Uncle Vergil is horrifying even when he isn't angry. The next several months to enrollment were fairly laid back, with only minor combat training most days, and ninjutsu training once a month when Vergil would visit.

Once the academy was in session, Dante began taking long term missions again, Naruto didn't mind much. It meant Vergil was around more teaching him chakra control and new ninjutsu to use. He made quick friends with most of his class, including Sasuke Uchiha, Shikamaru Nara, Kiba Inuzuka, and Shino Aburame. Within two months of the start of school, all the fangirls aligned themselves to either The Uchiha Fanclub or the Sparda Fanclub. Neither boy was too happy about it, as the fangirls would interfere with other activities or actively stalk them. Dante caught wind of this and when one would stalk his son with him around, he'd dart down an alley with Naruto in tow and vanish from sight. He would also constantly give Naruto grief over this, saying it was time to think about dating and enjoying women more. Naruto never cared. He wanted to learn more about the ninja life first, he wanted to hold a Devil Arm second, and he simply didn't have time to worry about girls with his insane training schedule with Vergil.

After a year in the academy, Dante got sent on a mission with Vergil, with many warnings not to touch the Devil Arms, and to eat healthy, they left. At the end of their mission, Dante returned to the Devil May Cry, happy to see his son for the first time in months.
What awaited him was a horrific scene. Laying on the floor, with a blue sword pinned through the center of his chest, was Naruto, his lips a pale blue from what Dante assumed was the coldness the blade had begun emitting. Dante panicked and pulled the sword from the young boy's chest, ignoring the icicles that pierced his hand as he gripped it, and began shaking Naruto, who was quickly getting color back to his face and lips. hoping the boy SOMEHOW survived the weapon's assault, his panic vanished when Naruto opened one of his eyes and asked a single question.

"Welcome back dad, hey can we go get some strawberry sundaes? I'm starving." Naruto asked as he shakily pulled himself up off the ground.

"Of course kid, lets go." Dante said with a soft smile as the two walked to the sundae stand and ate their fill.

The following year was a grim year, not for Naruto. No, but for the whole of Konoha. With the Uchiha clan massacre, the village's biggest advantage was gone. Sasuke became warped to the point even Naruto's cheerfulness couldn't reach him. The two went from the best of friends, to the sourest of enemies. Naruto didn't let it deter him much though. Even if he no longer acted it, he would still try to help Sasuke recover. The following two years of the academy showed no progress, but they became hard and fast rivals. Constantly sparring to the point one would need medical attention. Sasuke was still brooding, still mourning, nothing, and nobody, would take his newfound goal from him.

A week before the genin exams Naruto had trained and nearly mastered the abilities of the sword he had gained, and Dante couldn't have been more proud. Naruto's outfit, which previously had just been a simple black muscle shirt with black cargo jeans and black ninja sandals, changed when Dante and Naruto went out to buy a new outfit to celebrate his speed of learning, the new outfit now included; a black trench coat with a blond fox with nine tails stitched onto the back of it, a black muscle shirt, black cargo jeans, and black steel toed boots with a spike on each heel. The day of the genin exams Naruto passed everything with minor problems, the final part of the exam, which was making at least one good clone, he failed when the clone he produced looked pale and weak, he remembered Vergil had warned him that this could happen, but Naruto wouldn't be able to use Doppelganger until he could Devil Trigger on command. He went outside and sat on the swings, moping about, until Mizuki, one of Naruto's senseis, told him of another way to pass the exam, steal the forbidden scroll from the Hokage's office and learn at least a single jutsu from it. Naruto, in the prospect of still passing the exam, didn't realize how much trouble he could get into by doing that and set into plan exactly how he would steal the scroll that night.

His plan was simple really, he had found a way to deal with most of the men in the village with a rather perverted jutsu, the women were a bit harder. But thankfully the only guards in the Hokage's tower were of the perverted man variety. With relative ease he found the scroll and dashed out, find the spot in the forest where Mizuki told him to wait rather easily.

It took a few hours, but Naruto had just mastered the first jutsu from the scroll and was about to start working on the second one when Iruka, the other sensei, appeared and began lecturing Naruto about stealing something like the scroll could have him tried for treason and executed, at worst, or exiled, at best.

"Wait a minute... So, this wasn't a special test? Oh shit I've been had!" Naruto shouted as he noticed an enormous shuriken barreling towards him, Iruka was about to jump in the way but a familiar sword barreled into view and deflected the shuriken, the sword, acting much like a boomerang, went back into the hands of it's wielder, Dante, who walked into the small clearing and stood beside Iruka and Naruto, both of whom were looking at him as if he were an angel sent from the heavens.

"Heh, well well well, I really didn't think you would go THIS far just to get the scroll, or were you trying to kill my son in order to gain fame by killing what everyone calls the Fox brat. WELL!" Dante shouted, pointing his blade tip at Mizuki, who was setting in a tree branch near the edge of the clearing, at this Mizuki gulped in what could only be described as immense fear. "Heh, I'll give you a chance for life, heads you die, tails you live." Dante said as he flipped a coin up in the air and snatched it, he grinned as he glanced at the coin in his hand "Heads, looks like you're dead." Dante smirked as he Devil Triggered and launched his sword at the traitor, who barely deflected it off into the forest, with a newfound resolve he began bad mouthing Dante.

"You DEVIL! I don't know WHY Sarutobi let you LIVE, or take care of the DEMON brat, both of you deserve to rot in HELL!" Mizuki shouted, Dante was about to kill the traitor, but stopped when he felt an enourmous amount of killer intent, he turned and saw Naruto with a face contorted in fury, the boy was emitting enough killer intent to even make Dante sweat slightly.

"Nobody bad mouths my dad, except for me!" Naruto screamed, he pulled his sword off his back and he began glowing with a pale orange, once the energy covered him completely it pulsed away from his body, leaving a small crater underneath him. Now Naruto stood with nine blonde tails, a blonde furry body, and two blonde furry wings, Dante let out an impressed whistle at the transformation as his blade, Vendetta, returned to his hand.

"Alright!" Dante shouted out, before continuing "Now let's show him how the Sparda's deal with traitors like him. It's time to show him one hell of a party kid!" with a smirk that revealed razor sharp teeth Naruto nodded and dropped to all fours and charged, like a fox, cleaving Mizuki neatly in half with a clawed hand, Naruto then tumbled off to the side and changed back to his normal form.

"What happened?" Naruto asked as he quickly stood up, the Mizuki on the ground vanished in a poof of smoke, revealing a log, then three large shuriken shot towards Naruto, who smirked before making a hand sign and thousands of clones filled the area, he substituted himself with a clone as the shuriken hit him. "By the way, that's the Shadow Clone jutsu." Naruto said and Mizuki, foolishly, lunged at the clones and was beaten by the clones until he passed out, once the clones dispersed and Mizuki was properly tied up, Iruka told Naruto to close his eyes, while the boy's eyes were closed he took off his own head band and tied it onto Naruto, he then told the boy to open his eyes, and then told him congratulations on passing the genin exams, and to be at the academy bright and early for team selections. Naruto was beyond ecstatic, jumping up and down, hugging Iruka and Dante, and just being the hyperactive blonde everyone knows and loves. After a few moments of this, Dante grabbed the boy by the collar and dragged him towards home, promising ramen and strawberry sundaes for a celebration.

The next day Naruto walked in for Team selection, a few people questioned him, he just stated he had a retake after everyone had passed. Shikamaru Nara highly doubted that but thought it too troublesome to ask.

"Alright kids, quiet down, team selections begin now." Iruka said before pulling out a sheet of paper. "Team seven will be Sakura Haruno, Sasuke Uchiha, and Naruto Sparda, Team eight will be Hinata Hyuga, Shino Aburame, and Kiba Inuzuka, team nine is still in rotation from last year, team ten is Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara, and Chouji Akimichi, you are all to wait for your sensei to arrive." Naruto sighed, he was on the team with a fan girl and a brooding Uchiha, the only thing to complete the shittiest team ever would be a late, perverted, irresponsible sensei. After about thirty minutes all teams except team seven were gone, at an hour and a half after all the teams were gone Naruto was seriously mad, at one hour and forty five minutes Naruto was setting up a trap for their extremely late sensei.

At hour two their sensei walked in, a chalk board eraser hit him and triggered a second trap, which launched a fuuma shuriken at the man, right as the large shuriken he reached out and caught it.

"Impressive, but not quite good enough to get anyone above an experienced Genin." Their sensei, a man with a mask covering from his nose down, and his headband covering his left eye, said "Now everyone up to the roof top."

Once the entire team got to the roof their sensei spoke up in a tired, but chipper manner.

"Alright, introductions, tell us your name, likes, dislikes, dreams for the future, and hobbies."

"You start, ya late ass perv." Naruto said, pointing his sword directly at their teacher's book with a knowing smirk, the man's eye did a U-shaped smile as he began speaking.

"Alright, my name is Kakashi Hatake, I like things, I dislike things, I have dreams, and I have hobbies." Kakashi said, Naruto and the other two sweat dropped.

"I'll start this show off then. My name is Naruto Sparda, son of Dante Sparda, I like my dad, strawberry sundaes, ramen, training, the girl at the sundae stand near my house, and my friends. I dislike the bounty on Itachi Uchiha's head, the three minutes it takes to cook ramen, and the fact only one shop in all of Konoha sells strawberry sundaes. My goal is to become either an ANBU hunter nin or a kage. My hobbies are training and meditating." Naruto said as he leaned against his sword, which he had stabbed into the ground as he began his introduction. Kakashi nodded and pointed to the pink haired girl beside him.

"I'm Sakura Haruno, I like Sasuke-kun, flowers, and various other things. I hate Naruto. My dream is to marry Sasuke, and my hobbies are Sasuke." As she said his name, she shot a hateful glare at Naruto.

"The feeling is mutual, Haruno." Naruto said before the brooding Uchiha spoke up.

"My name is Sasuke Uchiha, I like very little, I dislike a lot of things, my dream, no my reason for living, is to kill a certain man." Sasuke said, Naruto smirked knowingly and decided to see how easy it would be to provoke his teammate.

"Sadly for you, Uchiha, Itachi's head will be MINE." Naruto said with a smirk, Sasuke glared at Naruto and pulled a kunai out and looked ready to lunge.

"Over my dead body." Sasuke grunted out, his leg muscles tensing in preparation for the lunge, in a fluid movement Naruto pulled his sword from the ground and pointed the tip at Sasuke's throat.

"I'd be more than happy to oblige." Naruto said, Sakura was about to intervene but Naruto pulled a kunai out with his free hand and aimed it at her, "Haruno this is between me and Sasuke." Sakura glared and looked ready to pummel Naruto, before anyone could make another move Kakahi vanished, reappearing a moment later with Naruto and Sasuke being choked by his hands, and Sakura's body under his right foot. The amount of killer intent leaking from his was enough to render all three speechless, the two boys choked out an apology after being released, and Sakura stammered an apology out as Kakashi removed his foot from her chest.

"Alright you three, cut it out, you three are a team, so you had best start acting like it. Now, Naruto, why do you not like the bounty on Itachi Uchiha?" Kakashi asked, Naruto grinned a bit.

"For the crime he committed, his bounty is way too low, My dad and I have seen almost double the amount of the bounty on Itachi, and one of those was a B-rank missing nin, so an S-rank nin's bounty should be massive." Naruto said, Kakashi raised an eyebrow as Naruto pulled out wanted posters with high bounties listed on them.

"Impressive." Kakashi said, looking over a few of the posters, some of them having nearly a million ryo for their heads, one had an amount of four hundred million ryo.

"Yeah, I'm impressed with your bounty, by the way, for your head some old man was willing to pay nearly thirty million." Kakashi's visible eye widened like a dinner plate.

"Why so much?" Kakashi asked, Naruto bit his lip in thought.

"Something about the son of the White Fang breaking his, the old man's, best creation." Kakashi sweat dropped.

"I figured it would be something like that." Kakashi said before focusing his attention to all of the genin "We'll meet at training ground three tomorrow at seven sharp, lateness will not be accepted." Kakashi said before vanishing in a poof of smoke


A bit early but chapter end

I thought about writing until the story, not counting disclaimer and Author notes, about seven thousand words but decided against it. For now all my first chapters will be between two and five thousand words

(1) The sword is Vendetta, from Devil may cry 2

(2) The coin and engraving, the coin is the one from DMC 2, the double sided one, the engraving on it is of Trish from the DMC series
