_ Last time_

'naruto my name is Kazuki and i will miss you too . . . Sochi' Kazuki smiled at him as his body started to fade away ' remember i will always love you sochi' with that Kasuki the Nine Tailed Fox was gone.
standing up naruto grabbed the swords and fell to his knees clutching the swords close.'i will not fail you tou-san!' -Real World-
naruto woke up with a start. Looking around he saw he was in the forest around konoha, but something was different everything seemed taller . Going to the nearest tree he tried to climb it only to find his paws in the way . . . Wait paws?

Story Start_
8 years later 'huh, so humans can get along ' Naruto looked up as he was sitting in a tree was overlooking a clearing with 4 people in it. Three teens and a silver haired man. Looking back down naruto started to listen to the man speak.
'Team work is part of being a shinobi of the hidden leaf, the whole point of this test was to see if you could work together.' The man looked at the three teens in front of him. 'Ino you did nothing but bug Sasuke during the test and when i put a genjutsu on you , you couldn't break out of it' the now identified Ino looked down in shame. ' Kiba you tried to bring the group together and no one listened to you that is why you're not tied up. you stood in the way of an attack when your teammate was in trouble, for that i give you my respect for you have what it means to be a true shinobi of konoha.' Kakashi looked at Kiba with respect showing in his eye. ' And finally Sasuke. While you were arrogant most of the test you still tried to work with your teammates. Like Kiba you stood in the way of an attack for your teammate and that earns you my respect.' Kakashi was now eye smiling and was looking at the stone behind them. 'This stone behind you has the names of shinobi who have fought and died for konoha, they gave their lives so you could live your's free of strife, blood and ,war . They have earned respect above all other.' Kiba, Ino, and Sasuke were now looking at the stone in awe and respect. 'My sensei Minato Namikaze helped me learn something important' Kakashi was near tears as he was giving his speech. 'Those who fail their mission is trash, but those who abandon their comrades are scum' Kakashi looked away from the stone and back at his students. 'You have proven to me that you can work together on a ok level and that you will do anything for your teammates , so i now can happily say you are now team 7!' Kakashi smiled underneath his mask.
'Kakashi sensei i have a question' asked Sasuke. ' What does it mean to be a shinobi?' The uchiha looked truly puzzled at his own question.
Kakashi looked down at sasuke with a little pride in his eye. 'To be a shinobi is to be a tool for your village, but that does not mean your emotionless, you are human you are born flawed and weak , that's why we have friends and comrades so we can fill our weakness.' Sasuke nodded and sat back down.
'Now all of you go home and party with your family's, you are the only team that has ever passed my exam so be happy but do not let it go to your head.' And with a wave Kakashi was gone. The team looked around and then left, headed to their homes.

-back with naruto -

'well i didn't expect that to actually be a passing team, but oh well.' Looking over these past eight years Naruto could say a lot has changed power, emotionally, and physically wise. He no longer had blonde hair after becoming the son of kasuki his hair turned a dark crimson almost black it hung over his left eye and went to his shoulder ( By the way his hair is no longer spikey it's kinda like Ukatakas in style but longer!). His skin was that of a light brown and his eyes were bright red. he wore a light brown Kimono missing the right sleeve, over it is a black vest with multiple pockets, strapped to his back in a X were two grey sheathed katana's, and to finish it all off was the 3 fluffy crimson and white tipped fox tails lazily swinging behind him.
'That was boring' Naruto reached into his Kimono and pulled out a black journal with a blue gem on the through the pages he began to read

-7 years ago.

"I don't know where i should go next, after leaving Konoha i didn't think i would need any were to go but the forest but i realise now that I was foolish, for i cannot train on my own i need teachers. I think i will go to iron country and learn the ways of the sword. Until next time"
Flipping through some more pages he came to the next part

-5 years ago.

"It has been fun in iron country, my sensei has taught me all he could before he died, I will respect him and his wishes but, i wish he would have let me heal him, it still hurts." The page here was stained with what looks like tears "having to bury him it hurt i have not cried like that since tou-san died i do not like it, but i will live. Until next time.'

Naruto looked towards the sky and closed his eyes remembering his dead sensei. After a moment he looked back down and flipped through some more pages.

-3 years ago.

"i have stayed in mist country for too long. I have stayed off of the radar of yagura and the rebels, but they are starting to look for me so I must leave. I have practised with my bloodline long enough now it is time to gain more parts of it. Until next time."

-2 years ago.

"i have trained enough. Lightning country has a lot of resources at its disposal so being silent and of the radar was hard but has been fruitful. Meeting the two tails jinchuriki was helpful and was the happiest time i have had in my life, but i had to leave and i would like to return."

-1 year ago.

" A strange man in a black cloak and a orange mask captured me a month ago he said that i was part of a greater plan. After that i woke up in my mindscape , Inside my mindscape was empty of anything besides a strange statue with a blindfold. it emits a power like tou-san had i will leave it alone for now. Until next time."
-six months ago "i am back in water country now , i had found a strange cave that emits the same power as the statue. After exploring the cave i have found a strange staff that emits power. I had picked it up and it brought me to my mind."

-Flashback-

'where am I?" Naruto looked around getting into a fighting stance ready to use his quick draw style.
'ho ho young one." Naruto turns around to see an old man. He was dressed in a white robe with six magatama on the neck piece. The man himself had a pale skin tone, his eyes were a lavender color with six black rings, two horns protruded from the top of his head under it was what looked like a closed eye, His hair was a bright white that spikely traveled down his back. On his face was a long straight beard and a small smile. ' what are you doing here young one'
' I had touched that weird staff that felt like tou-san's power.' Naruto spoke while quickly hiding his ears and tails with a fox illusion.
'Oh, and who would your tou-san be?' Asked the man with a raised eyebrow.
Naruto dropped back into his stance, right leg extended outwards to the right while his left was bent. His right hand was on the sword on his back and his left hand was touching the floor.' That would be none of your concern.' Naruto leveled a smoldering glare at the old man.
The man gave an amused smirk at the blonde. ' and if i persist ?' Naruto did not answer instead he kicked off the ground and flew in the direction of the old man bringing his sword out of its sheath ready to slice the man in half. Reacting quickly the man grabbed Naruto's wrist and bent it behind his back, but was forced to let go when naruto tried to kick him. ' ho ho young one you're a little feisty aren't ya!'
' Shut it old man, more fighting and less talking' Naruto once again jump at the old man but instead of swinging at him he dropped to the ground and tried to sweep the man's legs out from under him. The man jumped and kicked Naruto in the face while doing a flip and landing, the smirk never leaving his face. Naruto flying through the air flipped over and landed in the same position he started the battle in.
'are you done yet, for i only wish to talk' the old man softly smiled .
naruto glared at the old man, when suddenly he felt the man release monstrous amounts of chakra. Naruto saw Kazuki's face behind the man. His face immediately softened, and his body relaxed . standing up he put his sword away and mumbled ' i'm sorry '
'now then are you ready to tell me who you are?' questioned the old man.
Naruto never really thinking what he should change his last name to stood and said. ' my name is Naruto Uzumaki Kyuu . Son of the mighty Kazuki' After saying his piece Naruto then calmly sat down and crossed his legs as the old man walked towards him.
' Well then my name's Hagoromo Otsutsuki. ' The man paused for a second and said ' But you may know me better as the Rikudou Sennin' The sage smiled softly when he saw Naruto's eye's widened.
' hogo-Jiji, Tou-san told you were dead! How are you here?' Naruto basically screamed.
'Young one I had sealed my soul into the staff so that when the time comes i could give someone my gift.' Hagoromo smiled as he looked down at naruto.
'What gifts?' Naruto questioned as he looked around.
' i have seen your life Naruto, and i can see you have the gedo mazo sealed inside you, so i will give you some of my power.' Naruto's eye's Widened when he said that. After all this was a man that could beat tou-san. ' I will give you my rinnegan it will awaken as soon as you wake up. But my other gifts will awaken over time.' the sage was still smiling at the dumbfounded expression on Naruto's face. 'When you awaken you will explore that cave it has scrolls on your new powers and history before your current time' Suddenly the sage started to disappear 'Why are you giving these to me?' Naruto looked truly confused.
'Because you wish to bring peace to this world , something i could not achieve.' He smiled ' I believe you can bring peace and i put my faith in you.' As he finished Hagoromo started to fade out of existence.
' Wait! why are you disappearing!' Naruto screamed tears cascading down his eyes.
'Because young one, my time is gone i have stayed to this world for a sole purpose and now that that's complete i wish to see my family in the afterlife.' The sage gave Naruto a smile. Naruto looked into his eye's and could see just how tired the sage was. the sage looked at Naruto and gave him a hug. 'Stay strong Naruto for this world depends on you.' The sage closed his eyes and smiled one last time as he disappeared.

-Flashback End-

Naruto looked up at the sky, listening to the sounds of the leafs and wind as they sang.
' I can't just stay here and mop now can I?' The redhead smirked showing off his sharp canines as he stood up. 'It's almost time for the world to see me' with one last look at the sky the redhead disappeared.

-THE END-

Wow that chapter turned out better than I thought it would! Any ways Thank you to anyone that is still reading. Now then a few thing

Q. How is Naruto not Godlike you gave him the rinnegan,the sages staff, and the other sages power?

A: Naruto left the village when he was 4 and went to iron country only samurai there so noone to teach him how to use chakra. in Lightning and water country he only came into contact with Yugito but she didn't teach him anything, So he has no chakra, also it took Nagato Years to learn all the abilities for his eyes and Naruto just got them 6 months ago and still cant use chakra.

Q:How did he stay hidden with no chakra?

A: As a kitsune he is able to use illusions. he can also use fox fire but is not good with it.

Q:Did naruto read the scrolls?

A: NO, not yet because like the tablet in the naka shrine you need the rinnegan to read the scrolls. So he just has them in his Kimono.

2. There will be a pairing I just haven't figured one out yet. If you have any one that you want to be in the pairing just message me.

3. There will be no yaoi no exception there will also be no harem sorry but no.

being a kitsune has a fox form but doesn't use it to often but it will be in the story.
Well that's about it so
