Hi everyone. I know it has been AGES since I uploaded anything. However, I am back and I will be posting more chapter. This is the new and revised chapter for this story. It is taking a completely different turn than before. It is a bit more mature them before. I hope you like it. Please leave a review telling me what you think!


Tsunade stifled a yawn looking down at her paper work. To this day she did not understand why she took the role of the Hokage. Personally she wanted to retire already and go back to her days of wandering from villages to villages, gambling and camping under the starts. Oh how she missed those day. However, her succeeded was still under training and it would be a few more years before he could take over the role of protecting Wind Country.

"Granny!"

'Think of the devil, and the devil shall appear,' thought Tsunade.

"Naruto, I told you multiple times to knock on the door. Doors are created so one can enter the room, windows are to let the air ventilate. Why must you and your perverted sensei's always use the window?"

Naruto gave her a sleepish grin. "Sorry, but its soo much cooler to enter through the window."

"Naruto!"

Naruto raised his hands in surrender.

"Why are you here Naruto? Did you not just get back from your mission, go rest!" Tsunade said as she continued to stamp papers.

"Sakura broke up with me."

Tsunade froze. Slowly looking up she scanned Naruto for any sigh of distress, instead he just look tired and worn out, much like a retired shinobi. She had known that her student was planning on breaking up with Naruto soon. Sakura always carried feelings for Sasuke, ever since Sasuke came back to the village she had known they would have never worked out. And as much as she hated to tell Naruto this, she did not want Naruto and Sakura together. Sakura was a very nice girl, however Naruto was like her child. A child she always longed for, a child she cried over when she miscarried after Dan died. Ever since she met Naruto, he stole a very special place in her heart, and to her Sakura was not the life partner Naruto needed in his life. He needed someone stable, someone without a past, someone who would love his unconditionally with any if's or but's. Someone beautiful, someone perfect.

Getting up from behind her desk she walked forward and sat on her desk, directly in front of Naruto. "I see. How do you feel about this?" she prodded gently.

Naruto smiled sadly as he took a step forward and pulled Tsunade into a hug. "It hurts. A lot."

Tsunade rapped her arms around Naruto and pulled him in even closer. "I know sweetie. But you knew it wasn't going to last. She always loved him. It's better to break it off early than later, it would have been harder to get over then."

Naruto rested his head on her shoulder mumbling "I know." Slowly releasing the closest person he had to a mother he smiled. "I'm okay. Just needed a hug. But I came to talk to you about some else actually."

Tsunade ruffled his golden locks as she went back to her chair. Naruto calmly telling her he needed to talk meant it was serious business.

Naruto looked directly at Tsunade and told her about his conversation with Ino. The elders talking about his lineage so freely could spell trouble for not only him but the village as well. Luckily it was only Ino who had overheard, however information falling into someone else's hand could result into a full war with other villages. Over the past years Naruto had created a name for himself, however having his name also be tied with the forth Hokage could spell trouble. Big trouble.

Tsunade groaned. She messaged her temple, the Elder's started becoming more of a problem day by day and it was about time she dealt with them. Yawning she spoke, "Okay Naruto, here's what we're going to do. According to the Elder's you must not know about your lineage because than you practically become Royalty. With you name already in the Bingo Books, you're a known and feared shinobi across the nations. Having the Nine-Tails sealed makes you even more powerful, and if you add a Hokage and a last member of the Whirlpool Clan you become an endangered specie."

Naruto raised his eyebrows, "endangered specie? What do I look like, an insect or an exotic animal to you?"

Tsunade stifled a grin, "No Naruto, I mean your name will carry a lot of weight. Everyone knows you are next in line for Hokage. Keeping you in the dark is one of the many Elder's scheme to keep you under their control. Seeing how you already know, we are going to tell the Elders that you know and informally introduce you as the Forth's son in the next Kage-Five meeting."

Naruto looked at the Fifth Hokage in surprise.

"How will you plan on restraining the Elders when you tell them I know of my lineage?"

"Oh I am not going to tell them, Jiraiya is!" Tsunade said with a smirk.

Naruto nodded his head, "And how to you plan on restraining them?"

"I plan on bringing back our Crow. It's about time he comes back home. We let him fly around long enough, don't you think so too Naruto?"

Naruto shook his head, things were changing in the Hidden Village of the Leaves. Something told him a certain Uchiha would not be happy about the upcoming changes in the near future.
