Chapter 2. The Return

10 years later…

The afternoon sun was shining brightly down on Konoha, there were people busling about and children playing in the streets. Today was October 10, the day of there savior's birth. Yes, after are blonde gaki left to train, the Sandaime began righting all his past mistakes. While he wanted to get rid of the civilian council, hiruzen was certain Naruto would want to see it happen as well so he simply waited.

The Hokage told the people just who they were abusing after Naruto left. To say they were ashamed was like saying that Jariaya was a bit of a pervert. Along with that many of the villagers began a fund to hopefully soothe Naruto's hatred of them even if only slightly. Unfortunatly, there were a few who still hated the "Demon" for brainwashing their Hokage. Every day children would wait by the village gates with banisters welcoming home the blonde and imaginations of how cool he was. Indeed, things have definetely changed in the hidden leaf village.

Above the village a strange bird flew down to a random building top. When it landed, it began to transform and grow in orange flames. Soon the bird was a man, but any who would look could only see a blonde god. The blondie was wearing strange armor similar to the visitor 10 years ago, only the colors were red plates with black glowing trims and runes. The lower half of the armor was covered by loose black ANBU pants with red flames licking the sides, running down to his black boots. The only area where there was no armor was his face and right arm. The arm was covered in black medical tape in the shoulder and wrist areas while his face was covered from the nose down in breath through black gauze. speaking of his face, his blonde spikey hair was slightly slick back and was down to the small of his back. But his eyes were the kicker, seeing as they were blood red with a small black pupils surrounded by 3 tommoes. For some reason, the stranger had the feared Sharingan. All along his arm were multiple seals, so many that they formed a tattoo of some sort but was covered by a black cloak around the arm.

The man seemed 24 in age but when the Sandaime Hokage opened his window for the man to literally jump from the roof a few buildings down to the inside of the Hokage's office, Hiruzen knew that this was his adopted grandson, Naruto Uzumaki.

"Well...Irou told me to expect a slight age change, but this is ridiculous." The old kage chuckled. "Old man, when I found out you consented with Irou-sensei for me to get these eyes, I wasn't even half as shocked as you are now. So, why are there kids at the gate with banners with welcome home Namikaze-sama, huh?" spoked are 6'3" blonde with a knowing smirk on his face. "I decided that the people should know there demon before judging him. Speaking of that," said the old timer while roaming through his desk "ah, here they are. These are the keys to your family estate, This is the headband with the red cloth you asked for, and these are the shades Irou had made so you can use your sharingan without people knowing. By the way, how is the chakra drain on them?" asked the Hokage worriedly. "Don't worry, the kyuubi repaired the chakra paths along with my sockets, so there like my regular eyes but when activated looks the same." replied Naruto. " well your getting your first mission right now, team 7 and 8 were dispatched on a C-ranked mission to Wave, but the client withheld vital information making it at least an A-ranked mission. I want you to go there as back up. The 2 jonins are Kakashi Hatake and Kurenai Yuhi." said the Hokage, getting into his work mode. "Sure thing jiji. I'll see you soon." and with that, Naruto ran out the window before transforming into a eagle moving top speed for his allies. As he did so, Sarutobi simply thought "man...being able to transform fully into stuff must rock..." as the bird flew out of sight.

Kurenai was not having a good time on this mission. First, Kakashi's screeming banshee Sakura just chattered with the Uchiha runt while Kiba was telling Hinata some jokes. Shino and Sai were quiet as usual. Then, they found out after facing to missing nins that Tazuna, there client, was withholding the fact that Gato, of Gato shipping, had paid for ninja assassins to kill him. That put all the genin on edge seeing they could be , after running into Zabuza Momochi, the A class missing nin paid to kill Tazuna, both she and Kakashi went to work on him. Unfortunatly, after a slip up from Kakashi, he was trapped in Zabuza's Water Prison Jutsu, leaving Kurenai preparing to die since she was pinned to a tree in front of one of Zabuza's water clones. When it threw it's zanbato, she mentally prepared herself for death, but as she closed her eyes waiting for sweet death she realized nothing happened. As she opened her eyes, she was greeted to the sight of the most handsome man she had ever seen. "he is so...so...so HOT!" she mentally screamed before slipping into unconsciousness.

Naruto, in his eagle transformation, was scanning the road to wave until he saw the sight of a trapped Kakashi and pinned Kurenai. Before the clone of the missing nin threw his sword at the woman, he dived down while transforming back to normal, and landed in front of the woman before catching the big ass sword with one hand. While everybody stared at him wide eyed, and in some cases lustly, at Naruto, he was examining the blade. "If this is Kubikiribōchō then that means that this guy is..."

"Hello, Zabuza Momochi, I see you ran into my friends here. Because I just got my headband today, I will allow you to walk away here unscathed if you release the jonin and scram." said Naruto. "hehehe... if you think some no name wannabe who just got his headband is gonna threaten me and just live has got another thing coming, kill him!" he shouted to his six water clones. As they surrounded him, Naruto channeled chakra to a seal and a katana appeared sheathed in his hand. "Ah, a fellow swordsman, how uninteresting." Zabuza jeered, but the comment soon ran back into his mouth with the display of swordsmanship that he witnessed.

When Naruto summoned the sword, team 7 and 8 (minus Kurenai) were amazed with it's beauty and the power radiating from it. The saya that held the blade was blood red with a black sageo. When Naruto drew the blade they noticed the tsuka was pitch black wrapped in red cloth and the tsuba was a demonic star surrounded by a burning halo. The habaki was a deep red as if it was coated in dried blood and the hamon was as dark as Amateratsu's flames.

As Naruto stared at the 6 clones he began to draw the blade out it's saya, and then just as suddenly resheathed it. Everyone looked at him awkwardly until the same clones blew up in water vapor. All the ninja looking were completely awestruck at his speed, wondering how the heck he could move so fast when Naruto stated "Kubikiri, meet your demise, Seinaru akuma ramu." "I don't know who the hell you are, but your sword is a true marvel...perhaps I will take it from you when your dead!" Zabuza said before making a clone to hold kakashi in place. Zabuza rushed Naruto at speeds even kakashi had a hard time following, but to Naruto, he was crawling. Zabuza launched a flurry of sword strikes that Naruto simply dodged without unsheathing his sword causing Zabuza to get even angrier. Zabuza jumped back a few yards for some space. "Ok blondie, your pretty good at dodging but let's see you dodge this!" the ex-mist nin exclaimed,before doing some handsigns.

"Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu" Zabuza yelled as the water behind him formed a giant dragon made of water. "Oh, that's cute Zabu-chan, you made a giant reptile appear." Naruto stated while a fuming Zabuza launched the jutsu. When it seemed Naruto was done for, he simply crashed his fist into the dragon causing it to burst into water vaper, much to the dismay and shock of everyone watching. "Well now, since we are throwing around jutsu here I will do one too." Said Naruto, while doing one handed hand signs shocking the ninjas watching even more. "Goodbye, Zabu-chan. Scorch style: Devil's Morning Breath Jutsu" spoke the blonde before breathing out a wave of pure heat that burned everything in it's way. Unfortunelately, Zabuza was hit causing 3rd degree burns all across his body before he passed out from the pain. This caused the water clone holding Kakashi's prison up dispersed. Before Naruto could retrieve Kubikiri however, a hunter nin scooped up the sworrdsmen and the giant cleaver before speeding away. Sending a clone to grab the jonin and Naruto getting Kurenai, he turned to the others stating " Okay then...where to bridge builder?" Tazuna stared for a few more seconds before he began leading the strange blondie and the kids to his house.

When they reached Tazuna's home, they were greeted by his daughter, Tsunami. While Naruto went to place the 2 jonin in the spare rooms that Tsunami provided, the leaf genin began discussing there new ally. "Who the heck WAS that guy, he just showed up out of nowhere and wiped the floor with Zabuza. Akamaru is scared shitless about him." exclaimed Kiba. "Indeed, my insects are also telling me to not anger this man." replied Shino. "Please! Sasuke-kun was about to destroy that guy when that blonde showed up, right Sasuke-kun?" yelled Sakura, though Sasuke and Sai were thinking about who he was and how powerful was he.

A few hours later, Kurenai and a exausted looking Kakashi came down with the stranger. Once everyone was sitting down, Kakashi began questioning the swordman. " While I am grateful for your assistance earlier, would you mind telling us who are you?" he asked. " Well from my headband, you can see that I am a fellow leaf ninja." Naruto replied. " Well, I haven't seen you around Konoha recently, so how are you wearing a brand new headband, sir?" Kurenai ask, seeing Kakashi's peeved face. " Well miss, I was gone for about 10 years. I just returned recently and the old man asked me to back you guys up. Good thing I did from the looks of things." Kakashi, getting slightly more annoyed came out with there true question. " Okay, that is nice and all, but just who are you?" " Well Inu, I'm a bit surprised you cant tell who I am, after all there arent many guys with hair like mine, besides my father, your late sensei."

This floored Kakashi, as there was only one person he knew that was related to his sensei in any way, but he took the chance to simply ask, " N..naruto..?" " In the flesh, Kakashi." " But h-how? Hokage-sama told me you were d-dead? And how are looking so old, you should be only 13?" " Well in order, I was saved by a man who offered me training. I asked jiji in my first letter to tell the shinobi of the village that I perished, because in a way, I did. And I look this old because of a ritual I went through to properly train. The ritual caused my body to accelerate to my prime. Also I spent the whole time training in a chamber when time mooved so fast that a day here would be a year there (DBZ reference). So, while I am physically around 25, I am mentally over 3,000 years old." Everyone at that point had a hard time picking up there jaws, and one of them tryng to keep in there anger. "train me." Our favorite duck ass uchiha stated. "uh... how about no." Naruto deadpanned. "Damn you, I am an uchiha! I deserve whatever training your ass went through!" "Yeah you eye-less weirdo! Sasuke-kun would be a great student since he has his vision, which you seem to have lost!" screeched our pink howler monkey. "who said I can't see?" said Naruto, before taking off his retro shades. Where Kakashi expected to see blue orbs, he instead was met with two sharingan eyes, shocking everyone in the room who knew of them. "How do you have those eyes, Naruto-san?" Kurenai asked. "They were a birthday present from my sensei. Although, my eyes are slightly different because they don't require chakra to activate." "Unless I want to use the Mangekyo" Naruto mentally added. Sasuke was furious that some nobody had the sharingan before him, an Uchiha elite. Sensing the tension, Kakashi and Kurenai told there young charges that they will start training more tommorow and they needed to sleep.
