Chapter 2

Council Meeting and Training Trips

Recap

"So what are you going to do now," she asked as they both sat on the couch and she snuggled up to her boyfriend. "Well," he started, "WE are going to go on a little trip for about a year for a couple of reasons. 1 because I need to remove myself from the Toad Summoning Contract then ill sign the Fox Contract, 2 we are going to train and see if you can't use alchemy, 3 after the year is up we'll return here and I'll try to get a clan started with the last name Elric but I'll probably be forced into the CRA."

Ino kissed him deeply, "Winry said you could sign the contract and I'm sure that I can learn alchemy but if what you said is true then I may have to see this "Gate" that you talked about. As for the CRA, I know how much stamina you have and I don't mind sharing besides Hinata will be thrilled to learn that."

Yes Ino knew of the Kyuubi or Winry as he found out after he lost his arm and leg when he was 4 . Naruto told Ino before the Chunnin exam finals and she accepted him saying "if no one can see that you are you and not a demon then they don't deserve your respect let alone your love" he was so thrilled that neither of them slept much that night.

Naruto and Ino got up from the couch much to Ino's reluctance and displeasure. "Well lets go to the council room and get this started I left my travel rights with Danzo-jiji, " Ino nodded as they headed out towards the Council Chambers.

Story

Naruto and Ino finally made their way to the Council Chambers and knocked on the door, after three seconds a gruff voice called them to enter. Once inside Naruto immediately greeted the three elders, "Danzo-jiji, Homura-jiji, Koharu-baa chan how are you."

The three loooked towards him before the man wrapped in bandages replied, "Hello Naruto-kun, we are all fine but why are you here, we are currently in a meeting with the shinobi Clan Heads." He motioned towards the figures sitting at the opposite end of the oval shaped oak table.

Ino noticed her father was there and waved at him and in turn he smiled at her. Naruto quickly dropped his "mask" and became serious, this act immediately got the Elders and the Clan Heads to straighten up in their seats and give their full attention to the young blond shinobi.

"Well," Naruto began, "I request to leave the village to go on a training trip for 2 and a half years, so I need my Sannin level travel pass please also there is someone in wave I would like to see again." As he said this he got a faraway look in his eyes that were now filled with sadness.

Everyone in the room wasn't surprised that he wanted to leave for a training trip especially after his defeat at the hands of the Uchiha. Yet, one thing on their minds were that it had to be serious if he wanted to use his travel rights. Koharu too was confused since earlier in the day Jaraiya had requested to take Naruto on a training trip, she decided to voice her confusion, "Umm, Naruto-kun earlier Jaraiya had requested to take you on a training trip with him to help you get stronger to fight of Akatsuki. Actually that is why we are now in this meeting, we were discussing letting you go."

Naruto simply responded by saying that he didn't want to learn anything from that man, while this was happening Ino went up to her father and sat in the empty chair beside him usually reserved for the Head of the Civilian shopping district.

"Why don't you want to learn from Jaraiya, he could help you a lot," Danzo stated as if it was the most obvious thing in the world while everyone else just nodded their heads up and down while Ino was shaking hers left to right.

"Well apparently he is my Godfather and Tsunade is my Godmother yet where were they when I needed them the most it takes him 15 years to come and finally see me and then I find out that my parents are still alive." He said with anger in his voice the killing intent coming from him slightly rising. Ino quickly got up and ran towards the blond embracing him in a hug and whispering comforting words into his ear. After a couple of minutes he calmed down but most of the Clan Heads were still on edge mainly Shikaku Nara, Tsume Inuzuka, and Choza Akamichi.

The three elders looked genuinely surprised while Hiashi Hyuuga just got up excused himself and eft to go back to his clan compound. Tsume finally calmed down from the blonds killing intent and spoke, "If I may ask who are your parents Naruto-kun?"

Naruto looked at each member of the council and Ino hugged him tighter so she could comfort him and give him some support in case he became angry again. Naruto told them of his meeting in the Hokage's office and told them who his parents were. He also told them that he had a bloodline given to him by the Kyubbi and that he wanted to leave to train in it. The council was surprised that he was the son of their Fourth Hokage, well all but the three Elders they knew from the beginning along with Tsume that he was that mans son but they did not know he was alive. The council was also highly disgusted that he would leave his own son at the mercy of the villagers just to train their daughter while hopping that the residence of Konoha would respect his wish.

He finished his tale and then asked that when he returns that he be able to start his own clan and change his last name that he would decide upon when he returned.

Danzo sighed before responding quickly getting over the shock of what he had just learned from the boy, "Fine, upon your return in 2 and a half years you will start your own clan but you will be placed in the Clan Restoration Act, also we will need to see a demonstration of your bloodline." He spoke pulling out a folder with Naruto's name on it and pulled out his travel pass handing it to him.

"Well I do have a request," he spoke as Danzo, Homura, and Koharu looked at him curiously.

"What would that request be Naruto-kun," Tsume question while thinking 'Kun!! Where the fuck did that come from?'

"Well I would like for a mansion to be built but leave part of it unfinished with the supplies next to the unfinished part, also how many wives will I need to take." At this Ino looked concerned that she may be forgotten in favor of another girl. Sensing her distress Naruto gripped her hand and smiled at her, the effects were almost instant, she calmed down and gripped his hand.

"Oh," he spoke again, "I also request to take Ino to train her since you know how good I am in the shinobi arts Danzo-jiji also I want to be at least a week away before they realize I'm gone so I will be leaving a shadow clone here." He finished and turned to leaves and had back to his apartment to pack.

North Gate of Konoha 1 hour after meeting

Naruto and Ino stood in comfortable silence both with traveling scrolls in their scroll pouches. After a few seconds Naruto speaks up signaling that its time to go. About thirty minutes go by until a soothing voice is heard in Narutos mind.

"Naruto-kun," Winry speaks getting his attention, "there is a seal on the inside of your right jacket sleeve." Naruto stops and quickly removes his jacket turning it inside out to confirm it confusing Ino with his sudden actions. "Umm, Naruto-kun what are you doing," Ino voices her confusion only for her reply to be him yelling "Son of a Bitch".

"That asshole that calls himself my father put a god damn Hiraishin seal on the inside of my right jacket sleeve," he throws the jacket onto the ground, "lets see that asshole try to find me now."


A week later Nami no Kuni

Naruto and Ino had finally arrived at their first destination of wave town and were now currently looking at The Great Naruto Bridge. One thing was on their minds as they crossed the bridge 'It's certainly going to be an interesting 2 and a half years'.

Well this is the second chapter not much happening here but the next chapter shall be longer than the first 2 by about 2 or 3k words I hope since the next 4 chaps are just for the training trips and look forward to evil plot twists and the evil WERETACOS. Next chapter will be Meanwhile in Konoha and Training Trip year 1. This has been your good looking author and I am signing off.
