A young man with long blonde hair tied in a ponytail and piercing blue eyes in a short-sleeved red coat with a black flame pattern along the hemlines over the coat the man wore a Konoha Jonin vest with the Kanji for sage on the back of the vest was sitting atop Konoha's Hokage Mountain as he greeted the early morning sun which cast its rays upon the six faces that were carved into stone. Watching all the citizens of Konoha pass by, happy and unharmed, reminded him of how close they came to losing it all.
Exactly five years had passed. Naruto thought to himself, when Otogakure headed by Orochimaru's right hand man Kabuto Yakushi had joined forces with the then council man of Iwagakure who had managed to stage a coup against the Tsuchikage and had placed himself as the Leader and after forming an alliance with Kabuto Yakushi had staged a war against Konoha, Kumo and Suna during the Chin. Although his reasons were twisted, the only one that made sense is that he wanted to subjugate Sunagakure to be a vassal to Iwagakure and to eliminate Kumo and Konohogakure's Jinchūriki. He would have succeeded as well had it not been for intelligence failures and the Genin of Suna, Kumo and Konoha taking part in the war.
Despite early warning systems in place the war had indeed been a very bloody one and the casualties were very high, mainly because of Kabuto Yakushi's freaks of Nature soldiers that had curse mark seals on them. However thanks to Kiba's, Chouji's and his Genin teams' superb training alongside the a few members of the Konoha 12 they were able to even the odds.
The battle had finally ended when Tsunade, Gaara and A killed Hokomura Hakudoshi, although it meant that each of the Kage had to go all out on their enemies. Including Gaara and that had meant revealing to the world that after the war with Akatsuki he had once again managed to become the Jailor of the One Tailed Tanuki Beast. However with the help of Naruto and Bee he had managed to become a true Jinchurki.
As if fighting a war on one front wasn't challenging enough, while the Hokage was away, Konoha had been attacked by the shinobi of Kusagakure and Otogakure. However although Konoha won that battle as well, they sustained heavy losses including many Jonin and Anbu level shinobi including Sai.
As a result of the confusion created during the war, The Hyuuga Clan Elders and Konoha elders in some misguided attempt to win back the respect and honor they had long ago lost, tried to assassinate Tsunade and Naruto in a desperate attempt to grab power. That plan also failed thanks to Neji and Hiashi Hyuuga intervention at the last moment.
With the help of the Anbu and the agreement of the other clan Leaders The Hokage was able to eliminate the threats of the Hyuuga Elders and the Konoha elders with little effort, and as a show of thanks to the Genin who participated in the war the Daimyo decided to Promote directly to the Rank of Chunin by Executive Order. Although the Hokage was against the decision, she agreed to the decision on the caveat that each of the nine Genin receive personal training from dedicated masters to ensure that their weak points were strengthen and they could become better Shinobi. Naruto having finally had enough bullshit being directed towards him decided to make his move and with the elegance of a Chess Player managed to not only receive Permission to Marry Hinata Hyuuga, but also receive permission from the Hokage to start his own clan.
However Naruto was not the only Shinobi to benefit from the internal Conflict, as a result of the shocking betrayal of the Hyuuga clan members, Hiashi Hyuuga with the help of Neji, Hinata and Hanabi completely re organized the Hyuuga clan and not only Abolished the Caged Bird Seal, but also helped he Hyuuga clan attain influential positions within the Medical Corps and Anbu. With Hinata stepping down as Clan Heiress and Hanabi refusing to take up the position, Neji was elected the new Hyuuga Clan Heir.
Konoha as a Village also prospered after the war, with the recent conquests of Kusagakure, Konoha was able to not only expand its borders but also managed to increase its National GDP thanks to the economic boom which resulted in increase in Industry and Education for both Civilian and Shinobi. Acceding to requests of the Civilian Council Then Hokage Tsunade had allocated a portion of the land in he recently seized Kusagakure for Civilian use and even helped them build a University that allowed both Shinobi and civilians to pursue their dreams of Higher education. The end result was that not only did Konoha's reputation as a serious Hidden Village with excellent soar to newer heights. It also helped its Neighbor Sunagakure find success by initiating a Cross training exercise in tactics and techniques. Sunagakure had also finally found a use for all its sand. By altering the properties of the sand with fire and other elements. They had managed to find and create a way to create products like reinforced glass lime stone and Calcium Carbonate. The invention had taken the construction industry by storm and now many companies were lining up at Suna's doorstep to buy not only large quantities of the finished product but also raw sand for construction purposes.
These were the thoughts that ran through his head as Naruto greeted the sunrise, although he was technically on leave after completing six back to back S rank missions, he had gotten a message from Gamabunta that one of his Genin Konohamaru Sarutobi, former Genin he corrected himself with a silent chuckle. So while his real self was snoring peacefully in bed with his arms around Hinata's naked form, the shadow clone was sitting atop the Hokage tower keeping a watch on the road to Konoha's entrance gates so as to be the first to meet his young Protégé.
However it seemed Naruto was not the only one who had the same idea, just below him he saw two young shinobi walking towards the gate a young man and a young girl. Both wearing the headbands of a Konoha shinobi and a Chunin vest.
The young boy was in his late teens and seemed to be sporting what looked lik clock shadow beard on what seemed to be a lithe yet muscular build, the young man had a grin on his face with a pair of battle axes strapped to his back in an X formation as he jumped down with ease from a nearby tree. Moegi had decided to take the direct route and walked out of the shadows shaking her head. also in her late teens she had a voluptuous figure, however her hair was short, it seemed like in the few months since he had last seen his former pupil she had grown in height by a good couple of inches and thus growing into her figure, it seemed she was trying out a multitude of styles as she wore black thigh high tights with a white and red blouse with pink and green design like patterns around the fringes. As they walked they seemed to be arguing about something.
"Looking at her former teammate with a mix of humor and pity she said "I'm telling you Udon, Naruto sensei misses Konohamaru. I mean haven't you noticed that he rarely smiles anymore even when he does he always has that faraway look in his eyes.
Oh come on Moegi-chan, there is a very simple reason he hasn't been smiling recently, I heard from Kakashi sensei that he has been on back to back S rank missions lately, even for someone like the Boss man, while we were training Kakashi sensei told me that S rank missions are those carry that the most risk and sometimes our brains and conscience tries to punish us for the actions that we as shinobi have to take during our missions, that is why there are rules that state a Shinobi can only carry out eight S rank missions in one year.
Moegi seemed unconvinced and said; "nobody ever said a master can't miss his disciple, especially when the disciple in question is also your protégé to whom you taught the most coveted of techniques, techniques designed by the fourth Hokage and later perfected by Naruto sensei himself."
Udon laughed and said "oh come on Moegi chan, your just jealous that the boss man taught you very few if any of the Ninjutsu within his Arsenal?"
Moegi looked abashed for a moment and said "it is true that I used to be jealous that unlike Konohamaru or you, he never taught me any of his Ninjutsu techniques, whenever he taught me anything he always concentrated on Taijutsu and Genjutsu and although I realized that as a medical nin my main goal was to conserve energy and Chakra. It wasn't until I started training with Shizune Sensei that I learnt the importance of the techniques Naruto sensei taught me so I am no longer jealous of you two log heads. It seems for better or for worse I'm stuck with you two for the rest of my life, so I guess what I am trying to say is that it's been my job to keep you two out of trouble since the academy, not that I have succeeded mind you, but I love you both anyway."
She then looked at Udon and said "it seems Kakashi sensei's training is paying off Udon, what with the fact that he now allows you to carry the axes Naruto sensei made you all those years ago out in the open. So am I correct in assuming you have mastered the weapon?"
Udon smiled and nodded his head yeah Moegi chan, I mastered the weapons he gave me, although it was a motherfucker to master them, you know people say Gai sensei had some intense training regiments, but Kakashi sensei has his own share of Training Regiments and I have to say the man is a Masochist, he is capable of unspeakable brutality.
His training often involves the usage of various machines that restrain my arms and legs, forcing my limbs into unnatural positions that often leave me in an exhausted mess. But goddamn if it isn't effective." He then looked at her suspiciously and said "speaking of love, I don't want you jumping my best friend as soon as he gets here, what you do in your free time is up to you but let's not gross out the entire village shall we?"
Before Moegi could reply she was interrupted by a poof of smoke and an amused chuckle, I haven't been back five seconds and you two are arguing with each other, can't you guys just give it a rest?"
The two friends turned to see a six foot tall and muscular young man with spiky brown hair that he wore in a ponytail while sporting a small French beard. wearing a Dark Orange Gi over a black mesh shirt with a dark blue obi tied around his waist, over which he wore a sleeveless, Karate uwagi (jacket) with black and bright orange, markings reminiscent of tiger stripes on it and on the back of it he wore the Kanji for Monkey which sat inside the Konoha symbol thus marking him as a member of the Sarutobi clan.
Moegi looked at the young man in front of her and although she had told herself she would play it cool and greet him normally and cordially, it seemed her teenage emotions had temporarily taken control of her body as she shouted in joy and literally jumped Konohamaru right then and there before kissing him passionately. A kiss she might add that Konohamaru returned with Gusto and although she took offense at his wandering hands she decided to forgive him this one time as she lost herself in the kiss.
Udon looked shocked and disgusted at the same time "oh come on Moegi chan I thought we had a deal, no kissing or groping your boyfriend in public, I don't want to have nightmares!"
On top of the Mountain Naruto was chuckling softly at the scene unfolding before him as the three friends argued good-naturedly with each other. His wish to see his protégé return safely back home his work completed he decided it was time to leave and so with a single hand sign and a final chuckle the Naruto Kage Bunshin disappeared with a poof of smoke.
