There in his garbage looked to be a little girl searching for food in which she found in the form of something that didn't look editable. He got a good look at her now. She looked to be around 6 years old with brown hair with red streaks in the form of pigtails, and red eyes with slits. She looked underfed in which was indicated by parts of her small frame shown though her shreds of clothing. She looked as if she hasn't eaten the right amount of food for years which was probably why she looked the way she did. She raised her food in question to eat it in which Naruto quickly moved in front of her and slapped it out of her hands.

This made her realize that she was not alone anymore. Without looking at who was there, she curled up into a fetal position as if waiting to be attacked. This action reminded Naruto of himself when he was younger. Then thinking back at his life, she was exactly like him. He watched her small frame shiver in fear and coldness in which slowly embedded pain into his heart. Seeing this girl was a reminder of how he had no one to help him. Soon he felt a small stream coming from both eyes which shocked him.

'Am I crying because of her? Why should I care about this one little girl?' He looked at her again. 'That's right, she remind me of myself of how I had no one to take care of me. I sometimes wonder how my life would have been if I had someone to be there for me and to love me.' The more he thought about his life, the more he began to realize that this girl needed him. He approached the shaking form and picked her up before bringing her into an embracing hug. As a kid, he always wanted one seeing as others did it to comfort someone.

The effects were instant. It was as if she was drawn to some type of paradise. She simple hugged him back weakly due to lack of food despite not knowing him. He thought that maybe it was because of the fact that she had no one which little did he know how accurate he was.

As soon as the shaking stopped, he released her in which their eyes made contact for the first time. These were not eyes of a child but one of a broken spirit. Looking closely, he could see a shimmer of hope in which he swore to himself that he would rekindle.

"Hey there little one, my name is Naruto. What is your name?" he asked with sincerity. He would have to gain the trust of this little girl so that she would feel safe. When that thought went through his mind, he began thinking about what Anko told him about trust. He shook those thoughts of her and refocused on the one ahead.

"My name is Emi." She replied shyly.

"How old are you emi?" She looked at him as if judging whether to trust him or not before replying.

"I'm 6 years old."

"Well do you have any parents or anyone taking care of you?" He of course knew the answer but wanted to hear it too.

"No, they said I was tainted by a demon fox. The orphanage kicked me out saying I was a demon." Now Naruto knew why he felt bad about her. She was just like him down to the last part about being thrown out. He tried to figure out how she was connected to the fox other than red eyes and red streaks but couldn't unless he had all the missing pieces.

"Emi, did you always have red streaks in your hair and red eyes?" Maybe this would answer how she was connected.

"No, I got them when I cut myself on this thing with weird symbols on it then this red stuff came out and hurt me. My cut did heal up after the pain went away." That's when the pieces fell into place. Looking at her eyes, he now noticed that they resembled Kyuubi's. Kyuubi's chakra must have been absorbed into her but the question was who tried to seal Kyuubi's chakra away. He did not know nor wouldn't any time soon as it wasn't that important to him anyways.

"Well don't worry about it, from now on, I will look after you." The shimmer of hope in her eyes brightened which made him smile.

"Really, as in you want me to be in your life?" You could hear the longing to belong in her voice.

"Yes and from now on, I'll be your nii-chan. And you'll be my Imouto ok?" She nodded at the concept of having a sibling. Naruto looked over her clothes and decided to give her one of his old jumpsuits for now. He took out one of his old red jumpsuits and gave it to her then turned around for her to change. After soon as she was dressed, he took her to the laboratory where he resides and made her some instant ramen which she devoured in order to fill away her hunger pain. As she went through the food, Naruto began contemplating about changing his life style seeing as a broken lab in the forest was not a suitable place for his Imouto. He would either have to move to a suitable home in konoha or rebuild the lab in which he chose the latter of the choices seeing as it was away from the general population.

But either choices required money which he didn't have much of. He would need to take on a job to earn money in which for once, he was glad he was a ninja. A yawn snapped him out of his thoughts in which came from a now sleepy Emi. He gathered some of his old clothes and made a temporary bed with them. He needed money and fast so after tucking her away and leaving several chakra reinforced shadow clones behind, he took off to the Hokage tower where he would ask for a mission.

He wasted no time in passing the security and opening the door to meet Anko and the Hokage looking as if they were just having a meeting.

"Oh this is great for you to be here Anko-sensei. Hokage-sama, I would like to request a c-ranked mission." This shocked Anko and the Hokage for different reasons. For Anko it was the dark aura that was not as dark as it was the last time she saw him which was a little over an hour ago. For the Hokage, it was the fact that he came here willingly for a mission despite the fact that he was basically forced to be a ninja. The Sandaime turned towards Anko.

"Do you think he is ready for a c-ranked mission Anko?"

"We'll just have to find out now won't we during our mission. Don't worry; I'm pretty sure a few bandits won't bring him down especially with me around." The Hokage thought about it before digging in his draw and pulling out a scroll. He read the scroll before handing over to Anko.

"Your mission is to handle a few bandits that have been terrorizing the little town of tanzaku gai. They requested that they must be taken care of soon. The details are in the scroll below. You are to move out as soon as possible." The two then took off as to finish the mission early.

As they traveled to their destination, Anko took glances at Naruto who was aware of her wondering eyes but said nothing. Anko on the other hand was observing him trying to learn anything that she hadn't learned about him. She was unable to get anything during her introduction but thinking back at her introduction, she felt bad for calling him the very thing he's been called his whole life. She turned her head into his direction.

"I'm sorry." Naruto turned his head towards her in confusion.

"I'm sorry for calling you a demon. I just didn't like what you said back there. Whether you accept my apology or not are up to you but I truly am sorry for what I said. I hope in the future we could get along a little more." That was all that was said.

The rest of the trip went silent. No words were spoken between the duos. They made their way to their contact and asked about their bandit problems. They were soon headed to the bandit's last sightings in which they would soon encounter them.

30 minutes away from the village was where they were spotted. There looked to be about 50 bandits and 2 chuunin level ninjas. This would boost things up to a b-ranked mission or would have if not for two more ninjas stepping out of one of the tents the made. They were clearly Jounin level missing nins from Iwa which she knew that she couldn't possible beat the both of them along with 2 chuunin and 50 bandits. Plus she had a genin to look after. This put the mission up to a high A-ranked mission easily. Just as she was about to signal for them to leave in which she would have called for backup, Naruto charged ahead and aiming his palm, he did something that surprised Anko. She did not hear what he said but the affects was amazing. He shot a beam out of the palm of his hands wiping out all bandits and the two chuunin who didn't seem like they were experienced to begin with while the two Jounins only suffered a few scratches. The Jounin seeing the damage and a boy with his arm stretched out charged at him drawing out kunai's. Anko jumped out of hiding and engaged the Jounin as well. The two sides parted ways in which they both had someone to fight evenly.

Naruto vs. Jounin one

Naruto and Jounin one went to the left side of the tents in which they charged at each other. Naruto pulled out a sword out of nowhere which surprised the Jounin but only for a second. The two crossed blades going back and forth with each other. The two sides landed on the opposite sides of each other and began sizing each other up as if searching for an opening or some type of weakness.

Finding none on each side, they charged at each other again clashing blades every now and then. As soon as they split apart, Naruto fired off another cero in which the Jounin dodged but did not anticipate Naruto's next move in which caused him an early battle. Naruto using sonīdo got behind him and thrust the blade through his chest thus killing him instantly.

Anko vs. Jounin two

Anko's match was considered easy considering that she had more experience than him. She recognized them as A-rank missing Nin's Rick and Slate. They were classified as A-ranked missing for sexually assaulting the Tsuchikage in which they had a bounty on their heads for 300,000 dollars. It seemed that the Tsuchikage did not mess around when it came to his daughter. They didn't have the real skills of an A-ranked missing Nin but that didn't mean they didn't have any skills at all. She just hoped that her genin was still alive. She quickly decapitated him before heading in the direction her genin went which wasn't too far.

End battle

When she met up with him, her eyes scanned him for injuries only to find none. She moved over to his downed victim and examined him before coming up with a conclusion that the battle ended quickly. She turned to him and scowled him.

"Next time don't rush in head first without my consent. You could have been killed out there but other than that, good job. Both of these Jounins had a bounty of 300,000 on their heads which is a lot considering we will get paid for an A-ranked mission too. Let's get back to the village immediately." She cut off his head before sealing both heads away then headed to their village.

When they reached their destination, they both reported to the Hokage in which they took turns retelling what happened along with written reports. They both received their pay for the mission along with the money for their heads. Anko then dismissed Naruto to speak with the Hokage. Naruto before leaving asked the Hokage's permission to leave the village for certain supplies stating that no one in the village would sell him anything. Feeling bad for his situation, the Hokage allowed him to go to get those supplies.

Naruto wasted no time in traveling to certain places near konoha to get what he needed. He made several orders for steel, lumber, and other materials to turn the old lab into a fortified home. But why stop at home when he could build a protected compound. But this money wasn't enough to do so plus he didn't have the skills. He would need to pay several contractors along with their workers along with someone to create a blue print. Plus he would need money for food or producing food. His answer came to him in the sound of ringing bells and many lights. It was a casino. Looking over the money he had left over, he decided to try his luck.

8 hours later, Naruto had bankrupted the entire casino in which he now owned the casino due to the fact that the owner tried an all or nothing move in which he thought Naruto would lose. The deal was if Naruto lost, then he would hand over all his money but if he won, then the casino would be his and he would work for him. Naruto of course won in which the deed was then signed over to him. Naruto took 10 million dollars out and began searching for the best contractors. He soon funds them and told them that he would like a compound built in less than three months. At first they said it was impossible unless they had an army of men in which Naruto told them he would cover that part.

2 months later

The Uzumaki compound was built underground thanks to the help of the contractors and Naruto's army of shadow clones. Emi and Naruto were now the unofficial members of the Uzumaki clan. Naruto gained contractors skills due to his army of clones performing different task that was given by the contractor. After the compound was built, he took his time putting seals that he learned from his mother's scroll. He made seal in which only he and emi had access to the compound. He made sure to cover it with a powerful genjutsu as well.

His compound was made up of several underground mansions close together in one area. He made had a gardening area created on the ground but kept a large wall around it to keep the animals away. But just to make sure his food was safe, he created several seals in which he incorporated his dark energy in them before placing them throughout the forest as a way to keep animals away thus keeping his garden safe along with allowing emi to wonder the compounds. His compound included a spa area for when he was too stressed or needed to relax from a mission, a hospital for medical related things and a training ground in which he would train there.

The entire compound took up most of the forbidden side of the forest of death. Nobody not even Anko or the Hokage went there. This was due to the fact that Orochimaru's most dangerous experiments were there. It was so dangerous that it was isolated from the rest of the forest of death by thick gates. Naruto saw these things as safety for him. No matter how dangerous those animals were, they would always avoid Naruto and Emi. He guessed it was due to having some of Kyuubi's chakra in her.

Naruto always made sure there were several chakra reinforced shadow clones near her so that she wouldn't feel alone. He wished he could have someone there for her but he couldn't as he was a ninja and had duties to fulfill.

Also he and Anko after completing the A-ranked mission only took on c-b-ranked missions. Naruto gained much experience in which landed his skills about high Jounin level which he smiled at his success. He would continue training until he was greater than all the Hokages.

Naruto was seen heading to the Hokage tower where he usually meets up with Anko. He did not tell anyone where he lived not even the Hokage. He made his way pass the security in which they didn't even attempt to try anything as he always walks pass them without their permission. There he saw Anko in which he was about to ask for another mission until the Hokage cut him off.

"Actually Naruto, I needed you here today for something. You see, word of your skills has gotten out to the council and they would like a word with you about them. They need you in the chambers today so that you could explain them what you abilities are as they have never seen or heard of anyone that could do them" Naruto sighed before complying with his request. The Sandaime placed his hands on Anko's and Naruto's shoulders before taking them to the room.

When they arrived, all noises that were there stopped. Homura decided to break the silence.

"Uzumaki, Naruto, we have heard several rumors that you possess several abilities that only you can do. We have gathered you here to clarify whether they are true or not." Naruto thought about it for a second. He knew lying was not an option and he wouldn't be able to avoid them with consequences such as lower ranked missions. He cursed the person that told the council members in which he guessed had to be the Hokage.

"It depends on what you mean by those abilities."

"I mean healing abilities that goes beyond that of the Kyuubi's and special techniques that allow you to shoot powerful beams out of the palms of your hands without handseals."

"Well if you mean those techniques then yes I do possess them. But if I may ask, why would that matter. It's not as if I will stay here long. As soon as I reach chuunin level, then I will retire as it states that I can in the rules." This caused him to frown as did the Hokage.

"I'm sorry but I'm afraid I can't allow that. You see, you are a great asset to konoha. Is there a way we could make your stay here more comfortable?" This caused Naruto's eyes to narrow. This did not bode well with his plans. Who are they to force him to stay in this place?

"Excuse me but it clearly states that I could leave once I reach the status of chuunin. Do I have to bring the Daimyo into this?" The people of the council paled at the mention of the Daimyo. Koharu cleared her throat after thinking of a plan.

"Well seeing as you are still here and we are still your superior, we demand that you produce one child for konoha immediately seeing as you won't be here long." She gave herself a mental pat on the back. The others in the room smiled at the thought of creating a powerful child using their own child of course. Naruto thought about his next words as it could be used against him.

"But don't you need a majority vote to do that?" He looked at their faces and noticed how all of them were smiling which made him uncomfortable.

"But you see we already came to that decision before you came in along with recreating the Uzumaki clan in konoha. And since you are under our jurisdiction you must comply. Thus not only are you the head of the newly stated Uzumaki clan but due to our laws, a newly stated clan must stay in konoha for at least ten years." They smiled knowing they won the battle or so they thought. Naruto's blood began to boil. He could see where this was heading already but he just had to confirm his theory.

"But don't I need to be chuunin or higher to become leader of any clans? I mean surly that was stated in the rules."

"But that was something else we discussed. We were going over you missions and it states that you have completed 1 A-ranked mission, 20 B-ranked mission, and 30 c-ranked missions which qualify you for chuunin or higher. So you are now the head of the Uzumaki clan. We also agreed to initiate you in the clan restoration act in which you will choose the women as we can't force the women to produce children." She thought about the request made by Tsume, Hiashi, Inoichi, and Sakura's mom Lily. Naruto by now knew there was no escaping what was going to happen. But that didn't stop his blood to boil more freely.

The Sandaime was a little happy in knowing that Naruto would be staying longer in konoha plus he would get to see his children. He felt a little bad that it was forced upon him but he wanted to get the old Naruto back which was the little boy that yelled he wanted to be Hokage. Naruto knowing he was stuck in konoha and head of a clan decided to add his special Imouto and leave to vent his anger as he felt it reaching its peak. Anko just sat in the background and listened on with a blank face not showing what she was thinking.

"Hokage-sama, is it ok if I add my adoptive Imouto to my clan right now? I will fill out any paper work you have right now if you don't mind." This caused the council's eyebrow to rise. No one saw him with a little girl but then again, no one knew much about him. The Hokage summoned an anbu to bring the papers in which he did 5 minutes later. Naruto then took some time filling out the papers before giving them back to the Sandaime. It was then stamped by a seal which made Emi an official member of the Uzumaki clan. The Sandaime then moved on to something related to his clan such as living arrangements.

"Now on to the compound issue seeing as you can't start a family in that small apartment of yours?" Naruto decided to cut him off there as he already had that covered.

"I will have that covered by myself now I will take my leave now as I am no longer needed. Have a nice day Hokage-sama." He took his chuunin vest left the room to destroy something leaving a confused Hokage and an equally confused council. They were about to ask the Hokage what he meant but he did not seem to have what was just said on his mind. The Sandaime narrowed his eyes at them before asking what was on his mind.

"Just what exactly are you guys up to? Not long ago you called for his blood and now you want him to produce children." Homura was the first to speak up.

"We are merely doing what's best for konoha. We could have him create the strongest ninjas for us and make them loyal to us. Abilities like the ones he possess are something rare and if we don't act now, this opportunity could be lost." Hiruzen then reminded them of an important fact that they seemed to forget.

"And how exactly will you do that seeing as Naruto himself probably hates konoha and could pass on that hate to his children just as you did with your children telling them that he was a demon or something along those lines. He could simply tell them that konoha is pure evil and raise them to think so too. How are you going to make them loyal by then?" This caused them to think about it more clearly. They never once thought about Naruto doing that, but would Naruto actually tell his children that.

"Well, we'll just have to show them that we aren't bad if it comes down to that." Homura said this as if it was the simplest thing in the world.

"Yes I'm pretty sure they would listen to you guys rather than the one raising them. And before you even ask about separating them, the answer is no as I did not hear any of you bring up any ideas of separating each other from their children." The council members seemed to be deep in thought at what was said. In order to prevent that from happening, they would need to change Naruto's opinion of konoha. Tsume and a few others then came up with an idea but weren't going to reveal them as they revolve around their clan rather than all of the council members as a whole. The Sandaime seeing no one else speaking or look ready dismissed them. As soon as he did, Tsume and the other members that had a plan went to initiate them.

Tsume went straight to the compound in which she summoned the elders and her daughter. She knew the others would be thinking of ways in which Naruto was involved so she had to speed up her plans first. As soon as they were present, she relayed to them what happened in court before telling them her plan.

"Well you see my plan is to have hana use the mate mark on him. The mate mark will drive his sexual desire for the one who placed it on him thus giving us some control over him. From there, we could slowly change his desire and turn them into love and devotion. We could also use him as a way to release our sexual build up on seeing as our clan lacks men due the Kyuubi's attack. Besides, he hasn't snapped for a month which shows he is safe to be around. I've kept tabs on him whenever he's going out on a mission and I did not see the so called demon people portrait him as." The elders agreed with her thus they chose hana to be the one which she happily accepted seeing as she got a Yondaime lookalike with the same scent as him and….. She began thinking more closely about the distinction between the two before asking her mom.

"Is Naruto related to the Yondaime? I mean he looks and smells like him plus who would the Yondaime sacrifice if he had a son?" Tsume thought the same thing too.

"That's the same thing I was thinking. If he is, then we'll surely have kage level children on our side. Imagine if they had Yondaime's speed and our sense of smell." The possibilities made her excited. The elders then reminded her of their allies.

"What about the Hyugas? They are our allies and would want to create a child as well. What will you do about them?"

"Well, we'll let them produce a few children but only them. I heard the Hyuga heiress has a thing for him so it could still work in our favor seeing as we would have him in the palms of ours hands. We will both gain something from this. Both of us will gain some children in which through them we will gain fame and fortune when they become great which they will. The Hyugas would only be interested in gaining a strong heir in which no doubt they will talk Naruto into allowing them to gain that child. All that needs to happen is that we mark him. So hana, everything is riding on you to mark him. Just use you natural beauty or something. This will greatly benefit our clan."

"I will try my best mother. I guess I should at least introduce myself to him. I'll get changed into something more attractive." With that she left leaving a smiling mother and elders.

Meanwhile at the Hyuga's compound, hiashi also had a similar discussion in which they were talking about how to get Naruto to produce an heir for them. The elders thought that Hinata was too weak and should be placed as a branch member in whom she would receive the caged seal but hiashi had other plans.

"What if we use Hinata to produce an heir for us? She would gladly accept the mission due to her feelings for him. All we have to do is encourage her to follow her heart and she will take this opportunity." The elders thought about it.

"But why not use Hanabi instead in which we will get stronger heirs from her." Hiashi not wanting his daughter to get the caged seal offered a deal in which would make all sides happy.

"Why not send both. Either way Hinata would be out of our hands and into his plus Hanabi would create strong heirs for us in which is a win-win situation." They agreed at this before sending for the two in which they arrived 10 minutes later. He cleared his throat to get their attention.
