Naruto: The Lies of Ruin
Chapter 1: The Beginning and Introductions.
A/n: I know, I know, another story, sorry but I couldn't help it, I was re-reading Love of my Brothers by celestial kitten 16, I really liked the story and the revised story is even better, so while I was reading it I was thinking of this story where Naruto ends up having older sisters, (Sorry Arashi XD). They won't be appearing until later on,
Now this story will be completely AU, first of all Naruto will look more like his father while acting like him a well, he will be smart and strong, I won't have him overpowered but let's face it he's already overpowered in canon. The fact that he is the son of the fourth hokage and a previous jinchūriki kinda has some influence on his potential. Btw in this story neither Mito or Kushina were Jinchuuriki
Akatsuki: won't find them here, not even Madara, who died when he should have, there will be a fourth shinobi war however,
No Bijū, Kurama will be a friendly Kitsune not Yōko, Shukaku will be a Tanuki youkai, same with the rest of the bijū.
This will be NaruTayu, which has become my fav pairing, she will be swapping places with Karin in terms of ranks in Pedomaru's forces.
Anyway I'll just get on with the story so I won't end up spoiling the surprises.

~flashback~
Story begin:
Naruto Uzumaki-Namikaze was walking to the shinobi academy of Konohagakure no sato [The Village hidden in the leaves] for team assignments, Naruto had just recently passed his genin test as rookie of the year, you see Naruto is very smart just like his father Minato Namikaze a.k.a The Yondaime Hokage a.k.a Konoha no Kiiroi Senkō [Konoha's Yellow Flash] of this he was certainly knew, he also knows his mother was Kushina Uzumaki a.k.a the Aka Chishio no Habanero [the red hot bloody Habanero],
he found this out when he was eight, he found his father's journal in the Hokage's office when he was with the Sandaime Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi a.k.a the professor, but Naruto just calls him Grandpa because Sarutobi has all but adopted Naruto as his also learned that he had four older sisters however unfortunately according to his grandpa, Naruto's family was killed in the Kyūbi attack 14 years ago, Minato was killed when he used the Shiki Fūin or Dead Demon Consuming Seal, to seal the Kyūbi into Naruto, however Naruto's mother and older sisters were presumed dead as their bodies weren't found among the wreckage of the hospital wing that was destroyed by Kyūbi that day.
Now Naruto doesn't hate his father, he knows it's the Hokage's job to protect the village with his life, doesn't mean he doesn't want' to give him a punch to the face though, he also knows that his father was a noble man and he himself couldn't ask another family to do that which he couldn't do himself.
That day Sarutobi brought Naruto to his family's home where he was allowed to live from therein out, he found that it was untouched, all he father's jutsu scrolls and books were there, his mother's journal he also found the Uzumaki clan's summoning scroll for the Wolf Clan, which he signed last night after graduating. He also found the room that was meant to be for him, which he updated so he could sleep in, he couldn't bring himself to take his parent's room for himself.
Anyway, after that day Naruto focussed on making his parents and older sisters proud, he trained every day to exhaustion, he mastered tree climbing and water walking to get his chakra control up, mastering the Kage Bunshin no jutsu helped as well as solved his clone dilemma, with help from the Sandaime, he trained in his father's taijutsu and his mother's kenjutsu style, buying a practice sword. He also was a natural with Fūinjutsu like his parents, he also learned his father's jutsu the Rasengan in three days. He was stuck on the Hiraishin no jutsu but he was close.
Naruto still had to go by Uzumaki, not Namikaze as he still wasn't strong enough to defend against his father's enemies, so he kept his skills secret for now.
Naruto looked like his father infact if it wasn't for the whiskers you would swear it was Minato back from the dead, it didn't help that Naruto was dressed exactly like his father was when he was a genin. Naruto was wearing black shinobi pants with black sandals, a black t-shirt with the Uzumaki spiral in red on the front, kunai and shuriken holsters on his right thigh, black hitai-ate and he finished off with a white hooded jacket with three stripes going down each sleeve and the Uzumaki spiral on the back and left shoulder and His blonde hair spiky with two jaw length bangs framing his face completed the look.
-At the Academy-
Stepping into his classroom for one last time, Naruto looked at his classmates. He was in a class with the Clan heirs, although he was a year older than them. The clan heirs were made up of, the Uchiha heir Sasuke, Shikamaru heir to the Nara Clan, Kiba heir to the Inuzuka Clan, Hinata heiress to the Hyūga clan, Ino heiress to the Yamanaka clan, Shino heir to the Aburame and Chōji heir to the Akimichi. Naruto was heir to the Uzumaki seeing as he was the last surviving member and he made sure everyone knew at least this much as all the enemies of the Uzumaki clan were all dead. There were also a number of civilian kids amongst the graduates such as Haruno Sakura.
Naruto took a seat at the back of the class next to his friends Shikamaru and Chōji.
"Hey guys" Naruto said greeting them
"Hey Naruto" Chōji said in-between bites from his bag of potato chips
"Hey Naruto, congrats on rookie of the year" Shikamaru said lifting his head from the desk.
"Thanks Shikamaru, you know you could have just as easily gotten it as well right" Naruto replied
"Meh it would have been too troublesome to have done so" Shikamaru answered going right back to sleep placing his head on the desk. Naruto chuckled at that and pulled out one of his father's books on advanced Fūinjutsu.
He was just about to start the chapter on his father's theory on time-space seals when the door as violently opened and two females burst in through.
"HAH I bet you Ino-pig" exclaimed one Haruno Sakura.
"What are you talking about forehead, my foot was in before yours by minutes" replied one Yamanaka Ino they continued arguing even when it came to sitting beside Sasuke Uchiha as they two were the lead fan-girls in the Uchiha's fan-club
This continued until their sensei Umino Iruka came inside and shut them all up with his demon head jutsu. Naruto scoffed at the stupidity of the fan-girls, obliviously not realizing he had a fan-girl himself, although she was more of a stalker than a fan-girl.
"Congratulations to all of you who passed…" Iruka started on one of his speeches/lectures, this one about their duty to the village and blah, blah, blah. Naruto just continued reading his book writing his own notes on seals that caught his fancy.
"Alright I will now readout the teams. Team 1 will…" he started Naruto zoning out until
"Team 7 will consist of Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke and Haruno Sakura your sensei will be Hatake Kakashi" Iruka read out
"CHA TAKE THAT PIG TRUE LOVE DEFEATES ALL" Sakura squealed, Naruto slammed his head on the table and Sasuke just hn'd.
'oh well at least Uncle Kakashi's my sensei' Naruto thought, Naruto knew who Kakashi was, seeing as he was one of Naruto's anbu guards growing up, he made sure the villagers knew Naruto was not to be harmed, although fortunately or unfortunately however way you look at it, the villagers settled on hating Naruto and ignoring him outright. This didn't bother Naruto as only the civilians did this, those who were shinobi save for a few, were nice to Naruto and helped him growing up especially those who were friends to his father when he was alive. Anyway Kakashi was like an Uncle to Naruto when he wasn't on duty or away on missions.
"Alright you guys you can go for lunch but be back here to meet your sensei. And again I'm proud of you guys and make the village proud as well" he finished as he walked out of the classroom.
"Right catch you guys later, there's a couple of bowls of ramen with my name on them at Ichiraku's" Naruto said disappearing in a whirl of leaves
"Huh looks like he finally got the hang of the Shunshin no jutsu" Shikamaru said looking up for a sec before leaving with Chōji.
-With Naruto-
Naruto appeared in front of the Ramen stand, pushing aside the flaps he walked inside.
"Hey Ayame, old man" he said taking his normal seat at the stand.
"Naruto my boy how are you" Teuchi owner of the stand said welcoming his favorite customer
"Hi Naruto" Ayame Teuchi's daughter said.
"So Naruto what can we get for you today." Teuchi asked
"Can I get three Miso ramen please" Naruto said
"No problem Naruto" Teuchi said firing up the grills.
"So Naruto how did team assignment go" Ayame asked
"Ugh I got teamed up with the banshee and emo-king" Naruto said sighing "I don't mind to much just as long as they learn that we're a team and not everything revolves around them ya know" Naruto said
"Well sometimes Naruto you just have to grin and bear it, but at least you got Kakashi as a sensei, so you should be able to grow even stronger now" Ayame replied
It was then that Teuchi had Naruto's ramen finished and he handed to Naruto
"Here ya go Naruto three misos" Teuchi said.
"Thanks old man" Naruto said, the three of them then talked for a while Naruto ate his lunch [read ate not inhaled as canon Naruto would]. After eating Naruto paid the bill said farewell and disappeared in a swirl of leaves again.
-Back at the Academy 3 hours later-
When Naruto returned to the academy all the sensei had gathered to collect their students sans one Hatake Kakashi. Naruto knew it would be a while before he came, he was of course talking to his old teammates so of course he will get a little lost.
So for the last while now Naruto continued reading his father's books as he looked over the notes Minato left for the Hiraishin. Sasuke was sulking and brooding as usual while Sakura was about to blow a gasket.
'3. 2. 1.' Naruto counted down
"CHA WHERE THE HELL IS THIS GUY SHANNARO" she screamed. Naruto had to suppress the urge to ram a rasengan down her throat.
"Maa calm down Sakura Kakashi sensei will be along shortly" Naruto said not even looking up from his book
"Shut up Naruto-baka, and stop trying to be as cool as Sasuke-kun, you'll never be as good as him" Sakura shouted at him
"Tch whatever" Naruto said as he went back to studying his book. Sakura was peeved she didn't get much of a reaction from Naruto, she was about to go give him a piece of her mind when the door suddenly opened, and in walked a man dressed in the standard jōnin garb, blue shirt and shinobi pants with the Uzumaki spiral on the biceps, green flak jacket, his hitai-ate was slanted to cover his left eye and a face mask cover his mouth. This was Hatake Kakashi, a.k.a Sharingan no Kakashi the man who copied over a thousand jutsu, son of the White Fang and only remaining member of team Minato the Yondaime's team before becoming hokage.
"My first impressions, I don't' like you two" he said looking at Sakura and Sasuke "Hello again Naruto" he said looking at Naruto
"Hi Uncle Kakashi" Naruto said looking up from his book and giving his adoptive Uncle a wave.
"YOUR LATE" Sakura screamed at her sensei, not even caring about respecting her elders nor nothing.
"Ah well you see I was heading here when I saw an old lady trying to bring heavy groceries home, I went to help her but it turned out she was being possessed by an evil spirit so I had to go find a priest of priestess to exorcise the spirit and get rid of it but then I got lost on the road of life" Kakashi said
"LIAR" Sakura Screamed again.
"Anyway meet me up on the roof" Kakashi said disappearing in a poof of smoke with Naruto following behind in his own Shunshin. Sakura and Sasuke quickly walked out and headed up the stairs.
Once they all got there, Kakashi and Naruto closed their books knowing now wasn't the time to be reading.
"Alright, how about we introduce ourselves," Kakashi said starting the conversation.
"What do you mean sensei" Sakura asked not knowing what to do,
"You know, name, likes, dislikes, hobbies, dreams for the future that sort of thing" Kakashi said, shocked at Sakura who was supposed to be the smartest graduate.
"Well why don't you go first and show us how it's done" she replied still confused.
"For fuck sake seriously, you don't know how to introduce yourself, I thought you were supposed to be the smartest Kunoichi in our class sheesh" Naruto said completely shocked at the inability to simple tell someone about yourself.
"S-shut up baka," Sakura Stammered completely embarrassed.
"I'll go first Sensei" Naruto said
"Sure go ahead Naruto"
"Right I'm Uzumaki Naruto, I like training, Fūinjutsu, kenjutsu and gardening, I also like Ichiraku ramen now and again especially when Iruka-sensei or grandpa Sarutobi treats me to it, I dislike fan-girls, ignorant idiots who can't tell a scroll from a kunai, and those who judge before getting to know someone. My hobbies included reading, gardening and creating new seals, my ambition because I will achieve it, is to restore my clan and become the greatest Hokage in history surpassing the other four, and making my Parents proud of me" Naruto said saying the last part with absolute conviction.
"What, you're an orphan baka, you don't have any parents and what clan" Sakura said scoffing at his dream
"Shut the fuck up Sakura of course I had parents dumbass, I didn't just fall from the sky as a baby or delivered to the orphanage by a stork, my parents died during the Kyūbi attack the day I was born, grandpa told me my mother died in the hospital when it was attacked by Kyūbi and my father sacrificed himself to save me. As for my clan genius I'm the heir and only known surviving member of the Uzumaki clan of Uzushiogakure of Uzu no Kuni, my clan was wiped out at the end of the second shinobi war when it had to take Iwa and Kumo just to defeat my ancestors who were masters in kenjutsu and Fūinjutsu." Naruto said quickly losing his temper and the pink haired bitch.
"What I never heard of them" Sakura said.
"Huh that's surprising seeing as the Shodaime's wife Was Mito Senju nee UZUMAKI, who turns out to be my great-great-grandaunt. All this is found in the library." Naruto said
"So why didn't we learn about this in the academy" Sakura asked
"Because when we did you were too enamoured with his almighty Emo-ness here" Naruto said thumbing in Sasuke's direction
"Alright enough, I'll go next then" Kakashi said breaking up the little fight.
"Now my name is Hatake Kakashi, likes and dislikes I don't feel like telling you, I have hobbies, and dreams for the future, I never really thought about it" Kakashi said completely leaving the three in the dark as to who he is, except Naruto he knew all about Kakashi, his Uncle liked the book series Icha Icha paradise, and confusing the fuck out of people. He dislikes traitors and those who would leave their comrades behind. His hobbies include reading and training his ninkens [ninja hounds], his dream for the future is to see the Icha Icha series be made into a movie.
"All you gave us was a name sensei" Sakura said. Naruto snickered, until they show Kakashi they were good ninja that was all they were getting.
"Alright then, you the pink howler monkey your next" Kakashi said pointing to Sakura
"My NAME is Haruno Sakura, I like…" she giggled while looking at Sasuke, "My Hobbies… (Another giggle while looking at the brooder) my dream is to… EEEH" she squealed at the last part shaking her head.
"And Dislikes?" Kakashi asked
"Ino-pig and Naruto" she shouted.
"Please" Naruto scoffed taking his book out losing interest with the conversation.
"Alright and finally Mister Darkness here" Kakashi said
"Uchiha Sasuke, I have little likes, and I dislike great number of things, and my ambition because I will make it a reality is to restore my clan and kill a certain man" Sasuke said in complete monotone.
'Okay so I have a rabid fan-girl, a brooding an avenger, Naruto is the only normal one, sensei you should see your son now' Kakashi thought, Smiling warmly when he thought the last part
"Okay, that's it for today, meet me at training ground 7 at 7am, for your real genin test, as the one you took in the academy was only to see if you had the ability to become genin. This test has a 66.6% failure rate, anyway remember, training ground 7, 7am and don't eat breakfast, because you'll only throw it up." Kakashi said, with that sakura and Sasuke left and Naruto was getting up to leave as well but was stopped by Kakashi.
"Naruto, I know for a fact Sensei and Kushina-sama are without a doubt proud of the shinobi you have become." He said giving his eye smile. Naruto smiled in return.
"T-thanks Uncle," Naruto said, supressing a few tears as best he can.
"No Problem Naruto, now off home now, you need all the rest you can get for tomorrow" Kakashi said ruffling the young blonde's hair.
"Hai, see you tomorrow sensei" Naruto said as he walked off and jumped of the railing only to disappear in a vortex of water.
"Sensei I'm pretty sure that kid is going to outdo us all." Kakashi said as he vanished in a swirl of leaves.
-Training Ground 7 the next morning-
Naruto headed to training ground 7 around a quarter to 10 as Kakashi would be three hours late again, Kakashi was never on time to anything below an A-rank Mission or summons from the hokage. So he headed out when he did after having a proper breakfast of eggs and bacon with orange juice. Setting the security seals on his house the blond Shunshined over to meet up with his team.
Appearing at the logs Naruto was met with the sight of a very tired Uchiha and a steaming Haruno
"YOU'RE LATE NARUTO-BAKA" Sakura screamed.
"Am I? Huh I don't see sensei anywhere, nor do I sense him in the immediate area, so I guess that means I'm not late" Naruto said fixing a glare on the pinkette. "Plus it's not my fault you forgot that sensei was late yesterday, sensei isn't early to anything save for A to SS-rank missions and summons from hokage-sama" he finished.
"That's not the point baka" Sakura replied fuming because he was right.
"Tch whatever" Naruto said walking off sitting against a tree. He pulled out his book and continued where he left off yesterday.
It was 10 o'clock when Kakashi finally decided to show up
"Good morning my cute little Genins" he said with his eye smile, earning him glares from the two tired genin and an Ohayu from Naruto.
"Okay now like I said yesterday this is you real genin test, this will decided if you become a ninja or return to the academy. Now…" he started, he then took out two bells, "Your test is to get these bells off of me by any means necessary, I want you to come at me with the intention to kill" he finished
"But sensei won't you get hurt" Sakura said confused at her sensei's order. Kakashi gave her an eye smile, Sasuke was indifferent however Naruto snickered
'Jeez for someone who got the third highest test scores she lacks complete common sense' Naruto and Kakashi thought to themselves
"Don't worry Sakura, I'm pretty sure you won't be able to hurt me too bad" Kakashi said while still smiling his eye smile. Naruto snorted at this
"Okay when I count to three, the test will begin, 1" he said starting his counting, the genin tensed readying themselves,
"2" they looked completely focused, or at least Sasuke and Naruto did.
"3" he finished, with that the three genin disappeared into the surrounding woodland.
"Well, their good at hiding anyway." Kakashi said, 'however I can still sense Sakura and Sasuke, Naruto I can't feel whatsoever.' He thought.
Meanwhile Naruto and a shadow clone were attempting to wrangle up Sasuke and sakura. The shadow clone made it to Sakura first.
"What do you want" she growled.
"We need to take him together, all three of us" Naruto replied.
"I don't need you help and neither does Sasuke-kun" She retorted.
"Listen here Haruno, while the rest of us trained in our ninjutsu, taijutsu and what not, you and your band of pathetic girls were too busy dieting and looking good for you oh so precious 'Sasuke-kun', so yes you do need my help and I will tell you why Sasuke will need our help as well, our sensei is Hatake Kakashi or Sharingan Kakashi, the man who copied a thousand jutsu and not to mention son of konoha's White fang, sensei was also a student of the Yondaime, and was anbu at 14, so yes we need to take him together otherwise we will fail and miserably too." Naruto lectured sakura, his clone also gave the same lecture just without the first part about sakura.
"F-fine I'll help but only because it will pass, and me and Sasuke-kun get to stay together" Sakura said
"Hn Fine but this plan of yours better work dobe" The arrogant ass, uh I mean Uchiha, said.
"Alright here's what's going to happen" Naruto and his clone started going into detail about his plan.
-Back with Kakashi-
Kakashi was still reading his book while this was going on. He was about to go confront his genin when he felt Sasuke's and Sakura's signatures moving, and they were heading for him.
'Alright let see what the three brightest the academy produced has to offer' Kakashi thought.
Kakashi continued to read, feigning ignorance and the chakra signals continued to get closer, then all of a sudden Sasuke burst from the bushes throwing two shuriken, which Kakashi caught on his fingers through the holes in the middle. Then the young Uchiha then rushed Kakashi aiming for his head with a kick which Kakashi then managed to catch all the while still reading, which proved to only infuriate the young Uchiha. It was then that Naruto burst through the bush as well engaging in the taijutsu match as well, forcing Kakashi to regretfully put his book away.
Dodging punches and kicks for the two young teenagers, Kakashi never felt Sakura sneaking up behind him, it wasn't until she got close and touched one of the bells that Kakashi recognized the threat and pushed Naruto and Sasuke away while jumping away from sakura. Then Naruto and Sasuke nodded to each other and then went through a series of hand seals each.
"Katon: Gokakyu no Jutsu [Fire release: Great Fireball Technique]" Sasuke said firing a huge fireball from his mouth.
"Fūton: Daitoppa [Wind Release: Great Breakthrough]" Naruto said releasing a big gust of wind from his mouth, which hit Sasuke's fireball doubling its size.
When Kakashi saw this his eyes widened, 'shit I didn't think they would ever try a collaborative attack. These three are full of surprises' he thought. He quickly replaced himself with a log escaping from the deadly fireball.
When the fire dissipated, Naruto and Sasuke couldn't see Kakashi anywhere. They however saw the charred remains of the log
"Shit replacement, Sasuke look out he's below us" Naruto said jumping away from his current position, Sasuke did so as well, just in time too, because as soon as he did jump away Kakashi's hands burst from the ground in an attempt to catch him. Kakashi then emerged from the ground dusting himself off.
'Alright time for plan b' Naruto said. Focusing his chakra he prepared his next move. Holding his hand out his summoned his attack. Blue glowing chains burst from the ground in front of Kakashi and wrapped around him. Kakashi tried to get out of the hold but it was no use.
"Don't bother sensei you know full well what these chains are capable of holding" Naruto said "Sakura now's your chance to get the bells" Naruto added which Sakura complied as she went over and took the bells of Kakashi. She then walked over to Sasuke and Naruto and stood beside them. Naruto released his chains and Kakashi clapped at their performance.
"Very good you guys, now which of you will get the two bells and which of you will be going back to the academy" Kakashi said pulling out his book and begun reading anew.
"I don't think any of us are going back to the academy" Naruto said, he figured out the objective of this test ages ago, seeing as it was the same one his father gave to Kakashi, and the same one the Sandaime gave to the Sannin.
"Oh and pray tell, why?" Kakashi asked arching an eyebrow
"Because the true objective of this test was teamwork, the bells were a way to get us to bicker, however we would still need to work together at some stage in order to get the bells off of you" Naruto said. Sasuke and Sakura nodded, Naruto explained to them about the test, and said how even though they weren't friends they should at least try to work together as teammates.
"Plus I never heard of a three man squad, only four man squads, three genin and one jōnin sensei." Naruto finished.
"Well then I guess you all" he paused "Pass" he said giving a thumbs up.
"Yay we did it" Sakura cheered, Naruto smiled and Sasuke smirked.
"Okay team report back here tomorrow at the same time for the start of your missions, Ja Ne" he said disappearing once again in a swirl of leaves.
"Well see you guys tomorrow" Naruto said disappearing in a whirlwind. When he left suffice to say, Sakura asked Sasuke out on a date only to de denied, and Sasuke sulked of with his hands in his pockets.
-Later that evening-
Naruto was walking home from Ichiraku's, he had just finished eating his celebratory ramen and decided it was time to go home. He was about to turn the corner to the street just in front of the entrance to his family's estate, when his danger sense went off.
Naruto jumped back just missing the impact of a strength enhanced drop-kick, which created a cloud of dust. When the dust cleared Naruto was shocked, because standing in the crater caused by the impact was Mizuki, Iruka's assistant and an avid hater of Naruto because of the Kyūbi sealed in him.
"Ah hello fox brat I was just looking for you," He said with a malicious smile.
"See its asshole's like you that make me sick, you're just spitting on the Yondaime's grave and final wishes, idiots who tell the jail from the prisoner" Naruto said
"Shut up you demon, right now I'm going to kill you and then take the Forbidden seal and deliver it to Lord Orochimaru, in appreciation for this power." Mizuki said as he begun to flare his chakra as he started transforming into a half tiger/half human thing. "Time to die fox brat" he said as he rushed forward towards Naruto.
He aimed a punch to the head however Naruto managed to evade just in time.
"Kage Bunshin no jutsu [Shadow clone technique]" Naruto said spawning 8 shadow clones. The clones rushed Mizuki to try and wear him down a bit.
"Tch these Clones aren't a match for me fox brat" Mizuki said. The clones did get in a few hits however Mizuki ended up wiping them all out. Mizuki then rushed Naruto trying to get a few hits, which he succeeded in doing but not without getting a few hits from Naruto that had been reinforced with chakra.
"This is pathetic, surely the might Kyū no Yōko could put up a better fight than this." Mizuki taunted
"I'm not the fox asshole, now hold still so I can tear you a new face" Naruto said, taking out his sword. Naruto spiked his chakra, as he knew if he was to deal with Mizuki he would need help.
Naruto then seal-lessly created 4 more clones and the five of them rushed Mizuki. Ducking and weaving Naruto and his clones slashed and swiped at Mizuki making several cuts.
"Argh, Stop that demon brat" Mizuki shouted swiping a claw at the Narutos surrounding him. Taking a hold of the original, Mizuki threw Naruto against the Namikaze compound wall. Mizuki grabbed a fumma shuriken he had with him and began spinning the giant shuriken he then threw it.
Naruto braced himself for the impact but it never came. Naruto slowly opened his eyes and what he saw shocked him. Standing in front of Naruto was Iruka back to Mizuki with shuriken sticking out of his back.
"I-iruka sensei," Naruto said
"Are you alright Naruto" Iruka said his mouth dripping a little blood. Naruto could only nod in his shocked state. However he was pulled out of his shock when Iruka collapsed in front of him from his wound and the shock to his system because of it.
"Oh Iruka how nice of you to join us, I was going to kill you later but oh well" Mizuki said nonchalantly. It was then that something snapped in Naruto. His bangs hid his face but when he looked up his eyes were an ice cold blue that would flick red now and again.
"If you lay another hand on Iruka-sensei, I'll kill you" Naruto said as his eyes became red with slits for pupils, whiskers became for pronounced.
"Bring it, demon brat I'll just beat you down." Mizuki said
"I'll bring it all right, I'll bring it a hundred fold" Naruto said, forming the cross seal "Kage bunshin no jutsu" with that four more Narutos popped into the fray all wielding their own katana. This time they all went in for killing shots while Naruto began focusing his chakra to the palm of his hand, as they first two clones reached Mizuki they slashed his legs bringing him down to his knees, Naruto had the rasengan formed and chased after his clones. The last two clones rushed Mizuki and slashed his upper arms deep making them useless and leaving him open for Naruto's finisher.
"Take this fucker RASENGAN" Naruto said ramming the swirling sphere of red chakra into Mizuki's gut, tearing away and flesh and intestines. The chakra also became unstable and exploded outwards out of Mizuki's back completely destroying the spine and leaving Mizuki paralysed. It didn't help that whatever gave Mizuki his incredibly chakra boost and tiger form began to suck all the life out of the man, all that was left was a mutilated withered corpse.
Remembering about Iruka Naruto went over to check to see if he was still alive. Checking for a pulse Naruto was relieved when he found one. He then flared his chakra to get the attention of anbu, how they didn't feel Mizuki's spike in chakra Naruto didn't know. But that's beside the point. However in a few seconds the anbu and Hokage showed up in minutes after Naruto's chakra flare with some medic Nin and ANBU.
"Naruto are you okay, what happened here" the old hokage asked the boy. Naruto then told the hokage and the anbu present about what happened, he told every detail clearly and precisely. When he was finished Sarutobi was convinced Naruto was not at fault, especially seeing as nearly most of the village felt the spike of malevolent chakra.
"Well I must commend you for a job well done Naruto, only one injury and not a lot of damage was done, very well I shall award you an A-rank Pay for this and it shall go on your record as an A-rank mission" Sarutobi said
"Thank you grandpa, but what about Iruka-sensei, is he going to be alright" Naruto replied worried about his academy teacher
"He'll be fine now Naruto, it was a simple enough wound. Now I think it's time you get home, you have to report to Kakashi tomorrow for mission do you not?" Sarutobi said.
"Oh yeah, I was going to go to bed but Mizuki attacked me heheh" Naruto said rubbing the back of his neck.
"Alright then off you go then Naruto" Sarutobi said chuckling, it always amazed him how Naruto could act like serious one minute and goofy the next, just like his parents.
"See ya tomorrow grandpa" Naruto said heading into the Namikaze estate.
The Hokage and ANBU headed off and the med nin took Iruka to the hospital to better heal him.
-With Naruto-
Naruto finished getting ready for bed and headed into his room. He changed a lot when he moved into his house, he painted the room a sunset orange, and replaced all the baby furniture with bigger dressers and a double bed. He had black bed sheets with the red Uzumaki spiral on them. Getting into the bed Naruto laid down and let sleep claim him, it helped that the battle with Mizuki tired him out. He was out like a candle when his head hit the pillow.
-Inside Naruto's Mindscape-
Naruto awoke in a sewer-like place. Confused as to how he got here Naruto began wandering forward.
"Okay last time I checked I fell asleep in my bed so this is either a dream or I was teleported somewhere" Naruto said to himself as he came into a large room with a large gate. On the gate in the middle where a door handle or knob would be found was a piece of paper saying 'Seal' in big black kanji.
"Ah so meet at last Uzumaki Naruto, it's about time you found yourself here, there is much we need to talk about" said a booming voice that emanated from within the cage
"W-what, who's there" Naruto said looking around not knowing where exactly the voice came from.
"Over here Kit, behind the large gate" came the voice again, and Naruto looked towards the gate, and what he saw froze him to the core with fear, because standing behind the gate was the Kyūbi no Kitsune.
"K-kyūbi" Naruto whispered however Kyūbi heard it just as clearly as if he said it right next to his ears.
"Correct Kit" Kyūbi said chuckling a bit.
"Wait if you're hear then that must mean I'm in the seal as well, but how?" Naruto asked
"Well it was when you used my chakra kit, that opened the connection between us and when you fell asleep I brought you here to the Mindscape, the mental manifestation of the seal connecting us, all jinchūriki have one so as to converse with their tenant" Kyūbi answered
"Huh, okay then so why did you call me here" Naruto asked
"Like I said we need to talk, there are things you need to know, however before we talk someone else would like to talk to you," Kyūbi replied, Kyūbi then looked away from Naruto "Alright it's you turn to talk Namikaze" he said
"N-namikaze? But I'm standing right in front of you" Naruto said confused
"Not you kit him" Kyūbi gestured to behind Naruto, which Naruto followed and turned around, once again Naruto was frozen solid but this time not by fear but confusion and shock. As standing right behind him was his Father, Minato Namikaze the Yondaime Hokage.
"Hello Naruto, it's nice to finally be able to meet you" Minato said with his signature smile. The mindscape changed to a vacant white setting with only Naruto and Minato present.
"D-dad" Naruto said shocked "H-how? I mean you're dead right?" he asked
"Well I sealed some of my chakra inside you as a safeguard in case Kyūbi ever tried to escape however I think my soul got trapped in aswell because of the Shiki Fūin, you see only the Uzumaki are supposed to use the Shiki Fūin to summon the Shinigami, when they do they are put into coma from the severe drain on their chakra reserves, anyone else other than an Uzumaki by blood, their soul is taken by the Shinigami, I think I might be in a coma but because of the chakra I sealed inside of you here I am, you see when myself and your mother got married we performed a ritual to adopt me into the clan as I was an orphan and your mother's clan was a renowned clan from Uzushio" Minato explained,
"Wait so if you're in a coma then why wasn't I told" Naruto said.
"That's one of the things I need to tell you, because of the seal I was able to see you grow from you own perspective, however I saw everything you did when you were still a baby, you see after the sealing you were taken from the area and brought to Sarutobi and your godfather Jiraiya to check the seal in the Hospital, however someone came into them and told them that not only was I dead but your mother and your Sisters were killed in the old ward of the hospital where Kushina supposedly gave birth to you but that was a lie. You see the person who told Sarutobi and Jiraiya was none other than Danzo. You see Danzo is an evil man, he never like Sarutobi or myself because we were too 'soft' in his opinion, to him ninja are only tools to be used. Now when he heard about you having the Kyūbi sealed into you making you a jinchūriki he saw an opportunity to get a very powerful tool to use to eventually usurp the hokage position from Sarutobi, so not only he told Jiraiya and Sarutobi that I was died and so was your mother and Sisters but Your mother and sister were told I died and so did you" Minato explained.
"So where are they, if they are still alive" Naruto asked becoming too overwhelmed by sadness anger and joy. Sadness and anger at what he was denied because of an old piece of shit that wanted to use him like he was just a tool to be used and discarded, joy from knowing his family is potentially still alive out there somewhere
"I don't know Naruto, but seeing as my body isn't in konoha than that means your mother and sisters took it with them, More than likely preserved it with a stasis Seal, i believe when my chalra here runs out, my soul should return to my body and the spike in chakra should cancel the stasis seal" Minato replied. He then let out an 'oof' as he was punched in the stomach
"That's for sealing the Kyūbi in me" Naruto said, but he then hugged his father "But I understand why you had to do it, you could only trust the power to me," he said
"That's right, it's a parent's job to believe in their child, and I completely believe in you to not misuse this power bestowed to you Naruto, and before I go I just want to let you know that yes I'm very proud of you" Minato said smiling at his son
"R-really?" Naruto said looking at his father,
"Of course I am, I mean you did complete the rasengan faster than myself or Jiraiya, and I must say you're making good progress on the Hiraishin," Minato said grinning
"Thanks dad, but I'm having trouble with it, I have all the theory on it understood but I can't use your Kunai they won't work" Naruto said wiping a tear from his eye.
"Well that's because my Kunai are keyed to my Chakra signature, not just my blood, you need your own kunai and engrave the seal on them and then when you add the blood ensure you channel chakra into your blood so it's keyed to you." Minato replied
"Oh that's how you did it" Naruto said his face in a eureka expression.
"Yep, now I believe my time is up for now, hopefully I will awake in my own body and I'll get myself, your sisters and your motor-mouth mother back to konoha if anything she's in one of our safe houses we have around Fire Country" Minato said as he started glowing, Naruto then hugged his father,
"Thanks for everything dad, and see you soon" He said a few tears forming
"Of course Naruto, remember I'm very proud of you, and I'm positive that your mother is as well, also don't tell her I called her a motor-mouth kay" Minato said smiling
"Kay dad" Naruto said nodding and chuckling. And with that Minato's chakra began to dissipate and he disappeared the surrounding area returning to the sewer setting with the cage once again in front of Naruto.
"So what is it you wanted to talk to me about" Naruto said wiping the tears from his eyes, going into what he calls shinobi mode.
"Well what have you been told of the night you were born" the Kyūbi asked, not surprised at all how serious Naruto was behaving.
"Well we were told that on October tenth, the village was attacked by the Kyūbi no Yōko and the Yondaime sacrificed himself to kill it, but I found out that you were actually sealed inside me when I found out about my parents and grandpa told me why and how they 'died', we were also told you were nothing but a mindless beast but I'm starting to think everything I was told about that night was a lie nothing we were told about that night is true is it" Naruto asked looking at the Kyūbi "what's your name by the way, I doubt it's Kyūbi as i know that Kitsune can have up to nine tails" he added
"Correct you are kit, my name is Kurama. However you are correct about how nothing is true about that night. You see I wasn't in control that night, it's actually my job to protect fire country along with Matatabi a two tailed monster Cat. I'm also only known as a Yōko because I was born with nine tails, rather than earn them over my life as we Kitsune are supposed to" Kurama replied
"Huh so why was it you attacked konoha that night" Naruto asked
"Well you see that night I had just returned to my den after hunting, I was looking for food for my mate and kits, however when I returned I found them dead" Kurama said his voice full of sorrow "The den reeked of snakes and I went to go follow the scent however when I exited the den I was attacked by two men, the man that reeked of snakes and a man with spinning red eyes" He growled
"Uchiha" Naruto growled out.
"Uchiha, as in that clan from Konoha?" Kurama asked
"Yeah, their Dōjutsu The Sharingan is red with spinning Tomoe revolving around the iris, they are formidable genjutsu users, and Madara Was known to have summoned you during his fight with Hashirama Senju" Naruto replied "Also the man who Smelled of snakes could only be Orochimaru, I bet in your rage induced state you followed the scent which led you to Konoha, so you weren't in the right frame of mind when you attacked" Naruto replied
"Correct again Kit, no I didn't attack in the right frame of mind in fact I think I was under a genjutsu by the Uchiha, and no I wasn't that Kyūbi, I killed him in combat years ago after that for betraying the Kitsune, as he thought he was better than the rest of us and went against our laws" Kurama answered
"Huh" Naruto said "So what else do you need to talk about" He asked
"Well, the only thing left is to say that we should partner up to benefit each other like some jinchūriki do" Kurama said
"Do you mean like you letting me use your power or something like that" Naruto said
"Well for the time being you can use my chakra but only when you yourself are running low, at the moment you have the same chakra capacity as five Kages, thanks to the seal taking mine and converting it to your reserves, it's only thanks to your clones practicing control that you have any control at all. So it will be rare that you will need my chakra at all, no what I propose is to somehow find a way to release me and what I'll do is pledge my service to your clan for as long as they live, You have my word not only as a Kitsune but a Kitsune lord, and we can never go back on our word, in fact you picked up a few Kitsune traits you know" Kurama said.
"Alright, I'm not as advance as my dad is yet but I'll see what I can do" Naruto said
"That's all I ask kit now I believe it's time you get some sleep" Kurama said. And with that Naruto felt himself drifting off and soon Naruto was soon dreaming of being hokage and swimming pools filled with ramen, what he loves ramen he wouldn't be Naruto if he didn't. What Naruto didn't know was he was in for some serious action soon.
-End Story-
A/n alright that a new story done, Promise of a lifetime should be up soon enough so should New dimension as I'm almost finished those two, Moonlight warrior will be up sometime tomorrow, sorry it's been a while but college had gotten a bit hectic, but I got a couple of days off as well as rag week which is Ireland's Spring Break. So I managed to get some work done,
Anyway, with this story like you've seen so far Kurama is good as he isn't the same Kurama in canon, in fact this story will be nothing like canon, Minato and the rest of Naruto's family won't be seen for a while, it will take them a while to get to konoha from where they are.
Alright that's it for now I'll have something else to say with the other stories,
Read and review guys let me know how you like it or dislike it and where I can improve it or anything like that, also just to mention I intentionally left out the chan's and kun's I won't be using them, I won't even be using otōto imōto and them for big sis and
