Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto/ InuYasha they belong to Masashi Kishimoto and Rumiko Takahashi.

A/N: First story of mine!

This fanfic is based on the Naruto universe, with parts of InuYasha added to the Naruto A/U and not vice versa.

Naruto will not be Idiot who got dropped on his head or God like; he will grow strong like shinobi who had both talent (Itachi, Kakashi being examples of young and talented) and guidance.

There will be more than one women of romantic interest in his life; actual romance will have to wait till he hits the teens. There will be no pre-teen Naruto professing eternal love .It is probable one or more romantic interest will be killed off to suit the plot.

I won't be pairing him with Hinata or Sakura.

Jiraiya will play the God-Father role as he was supposed to.

Possible spoiler: Obito died crushed under a rock, Rin died of a Chidori/Raikiri to the heart.

Rant End, on to prologue.

=====Prologue=====

Namikaze Minato stood inside the barrier his wife Uzumaki Kushina made with her Chakra chains, ready to use the Kinjutsu: Shiki Fujin to seal the Kyūbi no Yōko in to his new born son. The Sandaime Hokage watched helplessly from outside the barrier as his successor sacrificed his life and the future of his new born to save Konoha.

30 minutes later Hiruzen held a small bundle, the Yondaime's legacy in his hand and went to a Council meeting, which he despised at this moment of time. He turned a tall man in Rabbit mask with a sore expression on his face "Get me Jiraiya, the leaf needs of his services once more." The ANBU bowed and replied "Hai Hokage-sama, it shall be done. "The ANBU departed in haste.

====4 Hour Time skip====

The Sandaime once again sat in the chair of the Hokage, a chair he had so gladly given up to the Yondaime but now he was back and the weight of expectations of guiding the leaf once again through the Post the attack in to an era strength and prosperity and the council's opinion of young Naruto weighed on his aging shoulders.

Fate of Naruto weighed the heaviest of his shoulders, the council was split 3 ways between execution supported by the civilians, Danzo's wish to turn him in to a weapon and marked indifference by the rest, none chose to view him as the hero he was, those that did were too cowardly to stand up for him, all the aged Hokage could do now was to wait for Jiraiya's return so as to introduce him to his God-son.
