Prologue: The History of the Tower
12 years ago, a nine tailed demon fox attacked the shinobi village of Konoha Gakure no Sato… But this isn't worrying about that detail. For this is the story behind one of the giant monuments in Konoha. It has struck fear and adoration in the hearts of those who live in the hidden village. It is the Youkai no Tou (The Tower of Demons). It was created after the yondaime Hokage sealed the demon fox in a newborn child by the orders of the re-appointed Sandaime Hokage. Fearing the child would be hated, and how true he was, ordered for the search and collection of other Jinchuuriki, or "the power of human sacrifices," so the child would grow up with kids he could befriend and have a semi-normal life.
Soon, the leaf-shinobi has found and brought back many jinchuuriki ranging from lesser demons to the other tailed beasts. Sandaime, fore-seeing as how this could be problematic for there would be a clash between the two groups, ordered for a tower to be built where the jinchuuriki could live and train. Sandaime himself saw to it that nothing was interrupted or destroyed while he watched over and protected the new citizens of the tower. The construction took three years. Once the tower was constructed, peace was once again attained in the village of Konoha. But it was a short lived peace. Tensions between the two groups finally broke the peace and the tower became taboo to anyone who didn't contain a demon and the place was to have no contact with the outside world, this did not stop others from coming in though. Many of the Jinchuuriki that live in the tower know the pain of being an outcast, so they would accept anyone who wasn't accepted in "normal" society and allowed them to live out their lives in the tower al long as they swore absolute loyalty to the citizens of the tower. Not long after, Iwagakure no Sato once again attacked Konoha. Their sole purpose was to take revenge on Konoha while the shinobi numbers were still low.
…It would not ever come to be…
The jinchuuriki bravely stepped up and defended their new home. This didn't happen during the first few weeks in the war though. Many of them didn't want anything to do with it as their own group was thriving on their own as they have trained to use their demonic powers to their advantage making them independent from the outside, And the others wanted to help them not because it was the right thing to do, but for Sandaime Hokage, who they all owe their livelihood to. But what was their major deciding factor was one Uzumaki Naruto. Kyuubi, knowing he could never get out of a seal created by the Shinigami himself, decided to educate and teach his container everything he knew. This also solidified his place as the King of Youkai no Tou. Of course, he never took the job seriously as people wanted him to but he also never took it lightly and has made laws in the tower to keep peace and to protect those who did not have the same fortune as him and the other jinchuuriki. Thanks to Naruto's natural talent for battle tactics and Kyuubi's knowledge of the strength and weaknesses of the shinobi nations, the war was now considered a one sided slaughter as Iwa-nins were being destroyed left and right. Soon, Iwa was forced to surrender and the people of the tower, who was the bane of existence to those on the outside, were now the grand heroes and heroines of Konoha.
And this, is where our story unfolds…
