Chapter two;
-One month time skip-
-Konoha Council-
"I will have silence!" seemingly whispered yet yelled the Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen.
The room stilled of course. The Hokage had this way about him, when he spoke you listened, when he commanded you obeyed, and when he told you something you believed it to be as true as chakra itself.
"You cannot be serious Hokage-sama, Naruto and Sasuke? Into the new ANBU training program? They are prodigious, and deserve the best possible training there is to bring out their true potential there is no denying it but under the guidance of Danzo they will be turned into weapons. Monsters even, the likes of which we haven't seen since the founding of Konoha". Voiced a concerned Shikaku, head of the Nara clan.
"Ever the voice of reason, Nara Shikaku but my decision stands, Uzumaki Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha will be given to Danzo so that their true potential may shine."
"Will that be all Hokage-sama?" asked a member of the council.
"Ah of course we still have to discuss this year's gennin teams and their Jonin sensei no?
-Minutes after the council ended-
"You have made the right choice, Hiruzen"
"I do hope so. Do not be too hard on them Danzo, they are still young and innocent."
"I will do no such thing, the will be treated as shinobi, their innocence will not last forever, you seem to forget this old friend.
"I seem to forget many things of late, old age."
"Hmp, I will take my leave. I have new recruits to attend to."
"Of course, do not let me keep you." Dismissed the Hokage.
-Later that day-
"Ah I'm so excited! We're going to learn all new types of new things, think of all the new jutsu teme. It's going to be amazing!
"It will be anything but enjoyable Uzumaki" replied Danzo.
"Eh? Where'd you come from!" screamed Naruto.
"Lesson one; stealth. A ninja's most powerful weapon is stealth.
It carried on this fashion for a year, lesson taught and demonstrated. Then, with minimal time spent it was mastered. That isn't to say that it was easy. No not at all, the work the young boys put into their training was incredible, the worked the hardest out of all the root forces, they had goals you see and of course they had rivals. Each other.
-Hokage Tower-
"They are progressing well." Shimura Danzo said.
"You are a fool; they are exceptional, on par with the likes of Itachi, Minato and possibly even the founders.
"I need access to the Uzumaki and Uchiha libraries." Replied Danzo.
"Hmm why so early?"
"The Uchiha has recently gained his third tomoe in his left and right eye, while Uzumaki has realised the potential of shadow clones and his Fuuinjutsu is progressing quickly it is time for him to start learning the way of his ancestors so he can appropriately use it in battle situations. He would also benefit from knowing more of his clan's jutsu, taijutsu and kenjutsu styles. The same can be said for Sasuke."
"Very well, tell me more about their skills and development."
"They are both excelling at all areas of being ninja, they're calm and able to analyse the situation. Sasuke is able to read and react accordingly with the use of his sharingan, while Naruto can be unpredictable and confuse opponents through his unorthodox technique.
Sasuke's skill in genjutsu is exceptional possibly better than Itachi's and his kenjutsu level is high for his age as well, on par with Naruto. An Uzumaki if only just, though I dare say it is only because of his bloodline. If not for that Naruto would tear him apart. His proficiency in ninjutsu is outstanding, he can use B-rank fire jutsu and one A-rank and his Lighting affinity is progressing well with easy use of B-rank jutsu and nearing the ability to use A-rank.
Naruto is of course on par with Sasuke, they're like that one doesn't progress without the other. They try of course but they are always at the same level. The Uzumaki is a prodigy in Fuuinjutsu even in Uzumaki standards, as expected the boy has not affinity for genjutsu but is able to detect and dispel them, while his tai and kenjutsu are prodigious as well. He has an affinity for both wind water and Lighting, from his mother and father I guess. He is able to use A and B rank wind jutsu and a few C-rank lighting.
The two are powerful in their own right, but when they work together I've never seen anything like it. It's as if they have a mental link lord third they complement each other perfectly."
"Is that so? I see the will of fire still burns brightly."
"I will have a time for them to showcase their abilities in a spar?"
"I might be able to see for myself soon enough, I will discuss the matter at a later date"
"Very well"
-An hour later and 27 bowls or ramen later-
"Sasuke, good ne?"
"You're a fool Naruto." Answer Sasuke.
"Hmph, say what you will, ramen is the best food out!"
"Hahah Naruto slow down, you'll explode"
"Speak for yourself old man Teuchi, I couldn't ever have enough of this stuff. It's incredible."
"Show some etiquette Naruto, no one will fall for you if you eat like a pig." Remarked Ayame, Ichiraku Teuchi's daughter.
"Aww but what about you Ayame-chan, you're so beautiful you could always be my girlfriend?" Replied a hopeful Naruto
"Nice try Naruto-kun but no."
The playful banter continued until an ANBU interrupted, "Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto you must report to Danzo-sama immediately, there has been a security breach.
