"Kushina. I'm here to take you to the battlefield. Hiruzen and I have a battle plan. There is no time to explain so I ask that you just trust me."
"Of course sweetie" Kushina said weakly. Minato picked her up and then teleported to Naruto.
"Lay by our son." She did so.
"Now Hiruzen!"
"Tell my grandson when I have one that I love him."
"You got it old man."
"Reaper Death Seal!" Hiruzen started by separating the Nine Tails' chakra. Once it was in a yin half and a yang half, he sent the Yin half into Kushina and the Yang half into Naruto. After it was completed, Hiruzen's soul was devoured by the Shinigami and he fell over dead.
"Kakashi. Take Hiruzen to Asuma. I'm taking Naruto and Kushina home so we can enjoy our first night as a family as much as possible considering tonight's events."
"Yes Sensei." Kakashi did as instructed and Minato took his family home. Minato would find out in the morning the after effects of adrenaline. He would feel all of the emotions that didn't faze him and all the pain in the morning.
One Month Later…
"I motion we keep the fact that I have a wife and a son a secret. Do I have someone to second my motion?" Minato asked as he addressed the council.
"I second the motion." Hiashi Hyūga stated.
"All in favor say I." 9 people stated they were in favor.
"All Opposed?" The only person, if you can call him that, who was opposed was everyone's favorite villain that is evil just in the name of being evil, Danzō Shimura.
"The motion is carried. And before you say anything Danzō, you are not fucking weaponizing my son. Any attempts to take my son and make him a weapon will end up with you disappearing mysteriously. And with there not being a body, they won't be able to prove your dead. Am I understood?" He only shook his head in an affirmative action.
"Good. I want my family to be kept secret for now. Meeting adjourned."
Danzō's House, One Hour Later…
"If I can't weaponized him, I can do something with him and that damned Uchiha Clan in a few years. I'll teach them all to deny me what I want…"
Hyūga Main Branch House, Five Years Later…
"Hiashi, I wish to arrange something with you."
"Minato, I would help you in any way possible. I owe it to you for putting up with me as a teammate all those years ago."
"Good. I would like to set it up to where Naruto and Hinata can get married when they are of age if they want to but they don't have to if they don't want to. Hinata seems to be the only person outside of me and Kushina that Naruto seems to trust and likewise with Hinata, it seems Naruto is the only person she trusts outside you, her mother, her uncle, and Neji."
"I agree and like the idea Minato. I observed it as well. I actually felt you would bring this up in a conversation so I prepared a scroll. All you have to do is sign it to make it binding and then the clan council won't be able to say shit about it."
"Can Kushina sign it for me instead? Remember, Naruto is still a well-kept secret."
"I think that will work just fine."
"Good. I'll be right back." Minato teleported out of the room and when he reappeared, he was with Kushina. He explained the deal to her and then had her sign it to make it binding. Maybe Naruto's life wouldn't be as difficult as previously thought.
Two Years Later…
"Tonight is the night. All root except for my two Elite guard, you storm the Uchiha Compound. I'll take care of the other part of my plan. Move out!"
The Uchiha Compound…
"We go in, murder them all, them come back out. Got it?"
"Roger." All 50 soldiers called. They ran into the Uchiha Compound and the sight that greeted them would scare Orochimaru shitless. There standing in front of them were the Fourth Hokage, Kushina Uzumaki, The entirety of the Uchiha Clan, and the heads of Nara, Aburame, Hyūga, Yamanaka, Akimichi, and Inuzuka clans. Minato was the first to speak.
"You will not be eliminating my teammate's clan on my watch. You can run or you can fight. Choose wisely." It didn't take a rocket scientist to make the decision made by the Root soldiers. They all had one thing on their minds. 'I need to get the fuck out of here!'
Back at Minato's House…
"Minato, Naruto is missing. All I could find was a letter addressed to you. Minato read the letter and grew enraged.
"I'll be back." He put on his robe and flashed away…
