Naruto wakes up one morning still mourning the passing of Jiraiya because seven years ago, this day, he passed away. The 4th Great Ninja War was long over and Naruto had to endure the day and fulfill his duties as the seventh Hokage. Just as he dispelled the shadow clones that were doing his paperwork, a carrier bird flew up only to stay there for a while just as Naruto passed out on his desk in his Seventh Hokage Cloak. Sasuke later walks in and places a blank paper bomb on Naruto's desk. He then sets it off and Naruto wakes wide awake thinking there an attack going on. Sasuke looks worried to add to the effect. Naruto then calls upon the Nine Tail's Chakra cloak. In reaction Sasuke calls upon a smaller Susano'o to protect from any reactions Naruto might have. Naruto finally notices that this is all a prank to get Naruto to notice the bird that Sasuke was pointing at with a Susano'o finger. Naruto then goes over to read the note that the bird had on its leg.

It is addressed from Killer Bee and reads. "Hey fool, I can sense a massive chakra being, and i'm feeling that you might like to check it out, yo." Naruto then looks up at Sasuke, after dispelling his nine tail cloak, only to see that he has already dispelled his chakra being as well.

Naruto says "Hey Sasuke, wanna go hunting for chakra?"

Sasuke replies with "Who will take over as Hokage if you can't leave."

Naruto Says back "I'm sure Sakura will want to be Hokage for a while." They both go to there respective homes. In the morning they are greeted by Sasuke's right hand man, Sanzoku Kugaru, a former ninja of the Hidden Waterfall village, now affiliated with the hidden leaf village wearing a faded purple, Leaf flak jacket with his headband sewn into his shoulder and black pants. He also has a Improvised Axe that is made up of chakra metal that isn't sharpened so it can be a handle, the lethal part of the axe is composed of a buzz saw that is shielded on one side so that it wont hurt the user. when infused with chakra the buzz saw spins and can be very lethal. It all adds up to be about 4' long, he keeps it on his back at all times in case of dire need. His main affinity is water but he can also use lightning, an interesting combo. Kugaru is a side brach of Nara that can also manipulate shadows.
