{Two weeks after the Invasion}
Naruto sighed as he looked upon the graves of the people they had lost over two weeks ago. Minato and the council had tried to send people in to retrieve the bodies after going through their military records. Naruto had turned them into bloody coral statues as soon as they stepped into his territory. After the eleventh one they finally got the message. He and the other's had picked a plot of land that the others who had experience with Doton Jutsu(Earth Techniques) to clear the buildings and create a proper burial ground. The had the coffins raided form a nearby forgotten funeral home in their territory. after almost two weeks, they had managed to create the final resting place for their fallen friends. Naruto was now walking round and was completely healed. He was wearing his usual attire, only the kimono was now a dark beige with dark emerald pin-stripes. His two swords strapped in different places now. Nejibana(Twisted Flower) was still on his left side for his right hand and Shinso(God Spear) was tucked behind him near the small of his back. His sash now a deep crimson, but was actually a very long red silk scarf with durable ninja wire sewn into it. His long hair had been pulled back into a single ponytail with his headband around his neck. His cloak had been discarded and a pair of new geta on his feet. He was currently heading to the Hokage's office for a new mission. His eyes almost closed as he worked on sensing things out with his chakra. It was harder now to find people now that is, it was as if he was barely getting anything. As if their lack of contempt for him had left it harder for him to find them. Still, he was making decent progress with it. Still, it was as if they had changed their attitudes about him almost overnight after rumors had gone around about the Youndaime(Fourth) and the Aka Shi(Red Death) were his parents. He was tempted to blow them all away with one of his more unique skills. Still, it was as if they were trying to get to him. He had all but defied the advances ofthe council to get a blood test on him. The only thing stopping him from killing them being the entire platoons of N.E. or Root Anbu Danzo would send after him.
He had already had about nine confrontations with the old student of the Nidaime. While their views on things were very different at alot of things. They were very good at having an intellectual conversation o many things, their preferences on different teas, weather, and even thou the man was ready to do anything for the betterment for Konoha, Naruto had promised the old man that he would protect the village as long as they did not cross a certain line again. This had led to several diffrent bouts between them. Danzo having all the chances to kill him or take control of him at any time. It was only the fear of Sarutobi and his own little remaining compassion that he did not. Naruto did not have any solid proof, but it was as if Danzo had been training him, the man having done things slower and slower and faster and faster as Naruto had tried and succeeded on replicating almost a good number of the mans skill's. Danzo never showed shock save on a few occasions. It was because of this man, that Naruto was the observant fighter he was now. He new where the man was, having been to his own actual home a few times. It was actually his second stop for the day. Still, that conversation was for a other day. The Yondaime was announcing his official return and as part of the Shiobi forces he was by law required to be there. Still didn't mean he wanted to be.
He passed alot of people as he made his way into the crowd below the Hokage Tower. His eyes scanned the crowd as he saw them quiet down little by little. Each one casting their gaze down at their sandals. Save for a few he could actually consider friends, Shikamaru, Sasuke, and a few others who had never had contempt or hate or fear for him. He stopped by Shino and Sasuke as they both nodded at him, "Uzumaki? You seem different, are your emotions clouding your mind?" Asked the bug user. Naruto looked at him, (Everybody is in their Shippuden outfits, I just cant see kids, even if their prodigess grwoing that fast in a short three years except those I work with differently} His hood hiding his face as his jet-black goggles reflected Naruto's image. His spear on his back, the weapon glinting in the sun light. "Yes and no my friend, there is simply a lot of things on my mind as of late." Naruto said as the Hokage appeared. Naruto cast his gaze at the man. His eyes not leaving the as figure as he cast out his limited sensing abilities. Everybody quieted down as the Youndaime spoke up. Chakra pumped around his throat to amplify his voice.
Minato looked at the crowed below him. Seeing faces new and old. He had so much to say, and yet, what he HAD to say needed to come before what he WANTED to say. "My fellow brothers and sisters of the Hidden Leaf. I cannot express how I feel at this moment to be here this day. Yet, I should not be here. I should still be trapped within the stomach of the Shinigami. I sacrificed all I could of myself and I saved this village before, even though many lived, many still died. I feel as if I have failed not only those who were killed during the Kyubi Crises. I have failed those during the Second and third Shinobi world war. From my time as a Genin to now as your Fourth Hokage. It has been the Job of every Kage, be they of The Stone, The Clouds, or the Mist. We have the duty to protect and Make sure our village's remain safe, well, and most of al. That we help anybody and everybody within it's walls. We Shinobi and Kunoichi serve and protect the civilians and our loved ones. Recently, I have found that our veterans, those who have seen more horrible things, been through more hell than all of us. Have been left to rot, and be forgotten. Suffering from their nightmares of their sins, the sins they committed so that we may be here today. We see only what we perceive as what things are as we want to. While we have been doing this. These people, the scorned, the abused, the bleeding and suffering. Are within our walls. Not only our veterans. People WHO HAVE NO FAMILY OR FRIENDS TO SPEAK OF! WE WERE ONCE TO BE OUR FAMILY! All behind out great walls raised by the Shodaime(First) and Uchiha Madara, were to be family. We have let these people down. They suffer four the sins we made them commit, that they willfully committed so that we may be alive and their friends and loved ones would be able to stay alive. I am here to say that I am personally ashamed of myself. Yet, just like the suns breaking over the horizon, the darkness that kept the sun from us shall be lifted as I will make it my goal, to see that this village prospers. I cannot do this alone though. So I ask you, will you help me in maing this a reality. Help me make sure that this suffering can never happen again. WILL YOU help me do this?!" He boomed aloud. A sound of roaring and cheers almost thrice as loud was his answer.
"Thank you, I can only hope that with this new dawn, out Will of Fire will burn brighter and never burn out. My fellow Brothers and sisters, Genin to ANBU. i cannot thank you enough. I promise, I wont leave you until It is truly my time to go. If you actually like me, then I should have nothing to worry about." He joked at the end, getting a louder reaction from before, cheers, laughs and vows were cried and made that day. Though, for Naruto. He knew that this simply the beginning to something that would undoubtedly change not only his life. But the life's of those around him as well, though. He was son shaken out of those thoughts as a certain yellow flash appeared and caught him from behind before flashing off again. It was as if it had happened in a split second, a simple flash before any body near the area. Sav the ones who were already there, watching and making sure that the operation went off without a hitch, or was on the rooftops doing crowd control Those who weren't, seemed to be blinded or stupefied for the moment it happened. Any weho witnessed it most possibly dismissed it as a trick of the light or stress or excitement getting to them.
[Hokages Office]
Naruto soon found himself within Minato's office as he brought a kunai down on Minato's throat, or attempted to as Minato dodged out of the way, though the knife soon turned into a projectile as it was throat as the mans right lung. He caught the weapon, having been thrown with almost no intent to kill, maybe a bit but not enough to actually kill. Wound yes, kill, absolutely not. "Naruto, I brought you here to talk to you about-" "Save your breath Hokage-san. If this about what I think it is. Then I want out of this office. I thought I had made it perfectly clear, I do not, will not, and never will possibly believe you. If you are going to go on and on and on about this. Then I will use my rights as a member of the mi;litary force of this village. Rights laid down by the Shodaime since its founding. Also, the Promotions form the Chunin Exams. I expect to be promoted along with the rest of them and those who showed the skill, power, and capability to handle these promotions." He said. Minato frowned but nodded. It would have to be on later date that he would have an actual conversation. Kushina said she was looking into something that would have a very good amount of proof to begin proving something. Though, even though they desperately needed, wanted that small amount of proof he was their son. She wanted to check his medical records. Their first conversation in his home having sent her maternal instincts into over drive as she had said she would look at his medical records.
That was after she did some checking at the local orphanage. Which she hadn't the chance to visit save a quick note left at the Matrons front desk that she would be stopping by soon. Oddly, and very suspiciously. The woman couldn't be found the rest of the day as the workers said she had left on a short leave for the rest of the week. Those Haruno Clan members had a strange way about things. Minato sighed as Naruto brought his gaze at the Hokage's eyes. Those crystal blue eyes met his sons own Arctic ice colored orbs. "I am going to make this frank Hokage-san. I am nnotgoing to beat around the bush. I want my promotion to Chunin Rank. I will not rest until I do. Those people, the retired Soldiers of our forces are willing to Re-inlist IF they are given new properties, rights and are given back what was taken. You do this. And you'll have over fifty experienced Jonin back. And over one hundred other Tokubetsu Jonin, and Chunin." He said as Minato seemed to thin his options over. The village was at only a third of its strength after the invasion. Naruto being responsible for almost twenty of those who had been on the receiving end of his weapon. Though with this, over two hundred experienced Shonobi and Kunoichi would be able to tae their ranks again. All he would have to do is go through their files, and their discharge papers. Then he would need to go through the un-official records of the Civilian council.
He needed to disband their influence from Military Matters anyways. Though he was going to need to take a few months to do this. He could re-instate them all within the course of a month. f he didn't. The he wouldn't lose anything but troops with experience that the current generation lacked. Minato weighed his options, 'The worst case scenario is that the other four villages decide to move in on us. Though they don't have the resources save for Kumo and Iwa. Kiri is in Civil War. Tht means that Their not a problem right now. Damn, this is going to be a headache. I need to keep Danzo at arms length in that, the Elders' to. No telling what they're is going to do.' Minato thought as he sighed, his shoulders slumping at the incoing migraine. "Deal, tell them that I'll go ahead and get their paperwork started and get their property, land, and everything else in order. I should have most of it done within a few months' time. I can get all of them re-instated within a month. Tell them to report to the registration building first thing in the morning in a few days." Minato said as Naruto kept his face like a stone. Un-emotional, or even cognitive thoughts. His eyes a shade darker than usual. "Well then, good day Hokage-San." Naruto said as he turned to leave. "Oh, and don't forget this." MInato said as he tossed a dark green Chunin Jacket at Naruto. Naruto caught it before he continued walking out of the office. When the door closed, Minato simply collapsed into his chair. "I wonder how Kushi-Chan is doing? " He said as he heard a large scream of anger from the direction of the Hospital. Followed by the familiar pull of his Hiraishin Kunai. Only Kushina had one at the moment so he warped to the Hospital.
Right when he appeared, several people in chains greated him, along with a room of discard files and cabinets'. Kushina's hair was moving slightly and she tossed a rather thick folder at him. "Read it." She commanded her husband, he did exactly that. His head sunk low as his hair shadowed his eyes. When he finished the first page, something happened. It was something very, very rare indeed. He felt a feeling he hadn't felt in a while. Pure, undiluted rage coursed though his heart and mind as his hair shadowed his eyes. Killer intent erupted from him as a single shout erupted from his throat. "SARUTOBI!" He yelled as he vanished. Leaving the file behind as he searched the village for the elder Hokage.

{Flashback: Earlier that day, Konoha Hospital}
Kushina walked into the Hospital, the frosted glass doors opened and she felt he air-conditioned building. The low temperature was a nice comfort to the near blistering heat outside. It was called Hi no Kuni for a reason. Konoha was built that the sun would always be right dead center of the village near high noon. Stil, the creature-comfort didn't deter her mind from why she was there. She was wearing a dark blue Kimono with a silver and black Uzumaki Spiral with red accents on the skirt-portion. The Hemline was a deep royal purple. A dark teal third-arm sash kept it closed. Her red-hair in a loose pony-tail as her amethyst eyes locked on the nurse at the front desk. The quiet-clack sound of her sandals on the floor got the nurses's attention. The small black eyes met her own vivid amethyst. Compared to kushina, she seemed to be almost bland, if not for the single dark purple short braid of her hair under her nurse's cap. "Lady Uzumaki! What can I do for you?" She asked as she held the older and recently revived woman's gaze. " I want to see the medical files and birth certificate of Uzumaki Naruto." She said as the nurse nodded, her eyes hardening as she looked at the woman infront of her. " I'm sorry but I cant do that. Those files are locked up and are-" Kushina flared her chakra as she slammed her hand down on the desk. Cracking the thick oak wood and leaving a decent dent. "I'm sorry, what were you saying." Kushina said icily as the nurse laughed nervously. 'DAMN! Koharu-dono won't like this one bit. Still, They aren't foolish enough to anger the Aka Shi.' She thought as she stood up. "Follow me, I'll take you to the File Room." She said as Kushina followed.
They took a few turns and eventually came to a thick wooden door. "Wait right here, I need to go and get one of the Head Doctors' to open the door. " She said as she took off. Leaving Kushina alone with the locked door. Kushina smiled as she ran through her and Minato's plan. She would come to the Hospital, and if she had to, forcefully take the information about Naruto. All of his medical records, anything and everything. She knew the basic protocal. Any orphan was given blood work. And from then on till age 14, was given free medical assistance. They could join the Ninja Program and get instant benefits. Still. She and Minato had talked to almost no one since their "Resurrection" almost a month ago. She needed to get the Birth Certificate and the paperwork on everything. She would then bring Naruto to the Hokage Tower and show him the paper work. They would do another blood test and anything else. Still, the birth certificate would be the defining article of proof that they had. "Tch, that nurse is taking too damn long." Kushina said to herself as she turned faster than the eye could follow, save for the Sharingan. Her leg shot out just as fast and her foot snapped out and kicked the heavy steel and wood door. It flew off of the hinges and the boom echoed through the hospital as she walked casually into the somewhat large room. She looked around before she saw the cabinet for N. She searched through it as she came to the U's. Nothing, absolutely nothing. Her hair started to float up around her as she was sure it would be there. "Ok, calm down Kushina, there're still two more you can check." She said to herself as she looked around the room again. Her eyes went to the U cabinet and she face palmed herself. "Well, I should have remembered where it was, his last name is Uzumaki. I swear sometimes I'm such a Baka." he cursed to herself as she opened the cabinet. Only to see a a few of them. One was Naruto's, the file was bundled together, almost seven completely full folders. Her eyes darkened as her hair completely went wild.
Kushina began to snap the thick red cords keeping it shut. It was at that point a few doctors came running into the room. One snatched the file out of her hands and suffered a broken rib-cage. The others were aught in golden spiked chains. She wrapped the one with the busted ribs in her chain's was well. She took the file from his hands and despite their pleading, the fearful look in their eyes didn't make her think twice about not opening it. She opened the first one and scanned through it. Her hair thrashed and flew about even more as sobs racked her frame. She steeled her nerves. She pulled a single Hirasihin Kunai from her sleeve and hurled it into the ground. inato soon appeared in his signature Yellow Flash. Kushina turned to face him. She tossed the folder at him. "Read it" She commanded her husband, he did exactly that. His head sunk low as his hair shadowed his eyes. When he finished the first page, something happened. It was something very, very rare indeed. He felt a feeling he hadn't felt in a while. Pure, undiluted rage coursed though his heart and mind as his hair shadowed his eyes. Killer intent erupted from him as a single shout erupted from his throat. "SARUTOBI!" He yelled as he vanished. Leaving the file behind as he searched the village for the elder Hokage.
He eventually came upon Sarutobi Hiruzens clan compound. He was met with the shocked faces of most of the small Sarutobi Clan. His eyes hidden as he stormed through to Hiruzen's chambers. He was the current Clan Head, he was in the Master Bedroom of the Estate. While decently large, it was nowhere near the Senju or Hyuga, and even the Uchiha CLan Homes. Still; Minato knew the way by memory. His anger growing as he threw open the door to find that Hiruzen was still in his night-clothes by the fire. Smoking his pipe and reading Icha-Icha. It would have been hilarious if Minato wasn;t in the mood to kill the man. A Hiraishin Kunai burried its way between the old mans legs. Cutting its way into the pants. Hiruzen almost pissed himself as Minato grabbed him by the throat and warped them out of the entire estate as guards swarmed into the room. Only to be blinded by the over-powered spacial warp.
They arrived at the T&I department. His eyes in cold fury as he threw Hiruzen into the chair. Hodiing a Hirashin Kunai to his throat as he seallessly created four prefect Kage-Bunshin(Shadow Clones). They grappled his limbs and strapped him into the chair. Before slapping a chakra-Eating seal to his limbs. Two per limb at his shoulder's, wrist's, thigh's, and his knee's. Then four more on his abdomen. He panted with exhaustion as that much chara was being siphoned from his old body. "Sautobi Hiruzen..." Minato's voice echoed through the chamber as he slapped a silencing seal on the door and walls. "I want answers. And like them or not. I will have them." He demanded, his voice emotionless as a rock. 'This is how it all begins then...' The Old Sarutobi thought as he prepared for Minato's worst.

[Minato and Kushina's home, Behind the Hokage Monument: 4:56.P.M]
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
It was at this moment, Kushina was walking to her and Minato's house that she saw that somebody was taking things from her home as she saw a single NE(ROOT) ANBU taking her scroll on the Kyubi-Seal. And Minato's personal notes on Bijuu chakra. She appeared behind the man as her hand ripped his throat out. Her anger costing her information as she tore his mask away, to reveal a pair of turquoise eyes, before a single kunai imbedded its self in Kushina's bellow her chest-plate. Nicking her lungs before the light faded from the woman's eyes, the woman then poofed away to reveal that it was a single Kage Bunshin. Kushina pulled the real, actual kunai form her body. Her wounds steaming shut instantly as she bore her eyes as the elder woman frowned at what she saw. It was a child, no more than twelve, in NE dress. Her turqoise eyes glaring at her. as her black hair looked at her with nothing, but it appeared, "Danzo is losing his touch. He let you retain se of your base emotions." She said as a frying pan appeared in her had with a poof of smoke. "I think I know how to handle this." Kushina said with a jovial smirk as a plan formed in her mind Devious and a bit twisted,But if it worked it would still get her closer to one of her few goals in this new life. "Come on then little girl. Let me help you with getting your emotions back." She sai with a grin as the kid pulled a tanto and charged.
