Naruto sat, squirming in the outer offices of the Hokage Tower. A med-nin had looked him over, but seeing no real injury, was changing Iruka's bandages.

As the white coated med-nin was muttering, "This is a mess, who did this, who taught them?"

"I did the field work." Naruto answered. "It is what I do when I am bleeding out, it was I was told to do, by your command staff. If I am going to be 'spoken to' for doing something the way the I was told to do it, Should I not have been told to do it correctly the first time?"

Looking over his shoulder, the med-nin frowned. "Okay, come here. If you continue this style of field medicine, you will causing more work for the medic-corps. All this does is stop the bleeding." looking again at the boy that now stood two feet away. "What I know about you, That is all you need. But for us, you are binding the blood vessels, mussels, and tendons into knots. For most of us, this would cause the wound to fester and rot, if not healed quickly." with a quick flick of his fingers, the field dressings fell to the ground, cut cleanly way from the wounds. Pulling a gauze square from the open kit beside him, the Med-nin wiped away the oozing blood, and dried scabs. Focusing chakra into is hand, he drew his palm over the wound, allowing the skin seal up, as if the wound was never there.

"How did you do that?" the whiskered youth asked. His eyes wide as he sucked in all info he could.

The Med-nin frowned, as he engaged his eyes in a Hyuga- isk fashion. Seeing the vast chakra network housed in the boys chest, his eyebrows unfurled. "Okay, you have the power, so here is the basic learning scroll of most medical ninja." he pulled a small green scroll from his kit, and handed it to Naruto. " At this time, you must not use any of this on humans, until you are cleared. Meet me at the front door of the hospital, tomorrow at sundown. I will see how you are doing, and instruct you in proper Field Medicine. Seeing as you are now a ninja of the Village, having you know how to patch up your fellow ninja properly is the least I can do."

Iruka caught the eye of the Medic ninja, and nodded. "Should have included it in the Academy, but with so much being limited by clan jutsus and personal abilities, the school board has all but cut out true field medical jutsus. Let me know when you have a few hours free, and we will look into correcting this oversight." then his mouth twisted sourly, "Would have inquired as to his skills in general, but was pressured from the council not to give the gaki any extra instruction."

"It almost cost you, your arm and leg, and me some serious time and effort." The Medic stood, and offered his hand to Naruto, "The Name is Renten. I will be your Medical Sensei." Looking to Iruka, "I will send you a copy of what time and days I have free." A quick bow to both and he was gone.

The Hokage sat in his office, gazing into the crystal orb. He smiled as he watched the Medic interact with the Jinchuuriki. He knew that the people reacted against his wishes to the young male, but the Medic was taking the time to get to know the boy. Seeing the handing of the scroll, raised his eyebrow.

'So the boy is going to learn some medical jutsu, good.' he stroked his chin, sipped from his pipe, 'Time to call those two in, then.'

"Naruto! Iruka! Get in here!"

Shortly the two ninja were standing before his desk.

"Naruto, I think it is time you learn the first of a few secrets about you, why you are an orphan, why the village hates you, and Where your power comes from." the old man sipped from his pipe, before exhaling a cloud of smoke. "Your Mother died from complications that arose during childbirth. Your Father died in the Attack on the village, the attack of the nine tailed fox; the Kyubbi. When the Fourth Hokage fought and defeated the Demon-Fox, he sealed the Biju in a new-born child."

He sipped again as Naruto cocked his head, before his eyes spasmed wide. "I was the child?"

"Good. The next morning, when the news was told to the village council, I told them of the great sacrifice that you and the Forth had provided for the village. I also told them of the Forth's finial wish, that you be seen as a savior. I was going to place you with a Ninja that I had complete trust in, for her to raise you as her own, so you could know the love and support of a family. But the Council called for your death. When it was Known that killing you would just release the Biju, another option had to be found. The Elders demanded that you be placed in the Orphanage, and out of my control. To try to further protect you, I passed a law that you and those of your generation were not to be told. And while the village did not break the law, not directly, they sure bent the hell out of it."

"And when I was four?" the Young man asked.

"By that Time, fear, rumors, and disbelief had grown strong enough that those who watching over you were losing their prospective. That was why I moved you to your apartment. And while work kept me busy, I did try to look after you as I could."

"Sir, You know how I told you, Most of the stores refuse to serve him, or overcharge him when he does come in." Iruka spoke up. "Other then the ramen stand and a small family run Ninja store, Naruto is not allowed in any of the stores around town. Mothers do not allow their children to play with him." Iruka looked down at the boy at his side, "Even the Teachers at the school treat him poorly. Myself included. If Not for your talk earlier this year, I would have written him off as useless." Looking back at the old man, "I personally fear that your law is holding in letter only."

"that reminds me." Naruto dug into his pocket and pulled out a list. "I need these items, jiji-sama, Now that I am a ninja. I need them in bulk, so going to the one shop I do business with will not be enough." He passed the list to the Hokage.

The old man read the list, then looked at the scroll still across Naruto's back. "I need that scroll back, boy."

Grinning like the fool that he is, Naruto unslung the scroll and tossed it on to the desk.

"Naruto, I need you to know, that jutsu you used to bring down Mizuki, it would have killed Iruka to preform it. It requires massive amounts of chakra. If I attempted to use it, I might be able to create ten, maybe twelve. Then I would be out of chakra for hours. How Many did you create?"

"I donno. I lost count at one hundred and twenty."

"And your energy levels?" the Old man leaned forward.

Naruto closed his eyes, as he looked inward. "Not any lower then if I had just spent the day on the training track."

"A gift from the Forth and your tenet. With the Biju sealed within you at such an early age, your chakra coils developed at a rate unheard of in the village. You are able to do things that are above and beyond many of the greatest ninja of the world. In time you could even surpass the Forth." the Third rapped his pipe to empty it of the ash. "Tonight, go home, sleep. Tomorrow you have pictures, a few jutsu to learn, and all that. I must ask that you keep what you just learned a secret for now. I will see you just after lunch. Dismissed."

"Good Night, Sir" Iruka turned on his heel, and headed out.

"Good night, jiji-sama." Naruto bobbed his head, then trotted out.
