Naruto of whirlpool
I was asked by a reviewer what the Pairings would be. So here they are.
Naruto/Temari Choji/Ino Neji/Tenten Hinata/OOC Lee/OOC Hanabi/Konohamaru Udon/Moegi.
When Naruto woke up he saw that someone had left a fresh shinobi suit with a Chunnin vest out for him. He shrugged then headed for the bathroom. After he showered and clothed himself he headed downstairs to the kitchen. The kitchen was noisy when he walked in.
His Uncle Keanu spotted him first. "Good morning Naruto did you have a good nights rest?" he asked with a smirk. Naruto's only response was a glare before he headed to the buffet table which was full of breakfast food. Naruto's Uncle Keanu was the biggest prankster among the Uzumaki clan. Once he filled his plate he headed to the nearest table where his Uncle Keanu and Aunt Kerala were sitting and eating breakfast.
Just as he sat down the twins ran into the room and promptly crashed into Uzumaki Yuri one of Naruto's older cousins and a new Jounin. The three went down in a crash drawing the attention of the entire family. "Ugh you two will you get off and watch where your going" Yuri yelled. The twins got off of him then walked to the buffet and started to fill their own plates. Yuri scowled at the kids before getting up and doing the same as they did while the rest of the room chuckled.
Naruto's Aunt looked over at him then spoke. "Naruto I expect your report on my desk when you're done with breakfast. Then you may check up on the other leaf refugees. After that you are free to do what you want for the rest of the day." she said. Naruto looked over at her from his seat. "Okay Aunt Kerala it will be done." Aunt Zaria walked in looking for the twins. When she saw them sitting at a table eating breakfast she smiled and got some of her own. Naruto nodded in her direction before returning to his own breakfast.
After finishing his breakfast Naruto returned the plates then went to retrieve his report from the desk in his room which had been returned to a more normal look. Once Naruto had retrieved it he headed to the Uzukage building. After he dropped it off Naruto went to check on the wounded in the hospital.
The first one he visited was Kakashi "Hello Kakashi sensei." he said. Kakashi looked up from his Icha Icha paradise book and eye smiled. "Ah Naruto I was expecting you." he replied. Naruto smirked at him. "Were you really sensei? But that is beside the point now that the survivors have been delivered to whirlpool we need to consolidate our forces and gather information of the Hidden sound and Hidden sand villages.
Like it or not we are still at war with them." Kakashi nodded in reply. "Are you going to send out a patrol?" he asked. "Yes in a couple of days once everyone is settled in. I intend to lead a patrol back to the fire country capital and see if any survivors went there." Naruto answered. After a few minutes of chatting Naruto left to go see the other wounded and to show his face around the Hospital. Naruto was still getting over what had happened during the last few weeks and he vowed to not give up the fight.
Naruto didn't know what the current situation was but whatever it was he would deal with is because for some reason all of the Leaf ninja had decided to put him in charge of the group. Naruto didn't know what to think about it. Naruto was so deep in thought that he walked right into Lee. "Oh sorry lee didn't see you there are you okay?" he asked. Lee looked back at him and smiled for the first time in quite a while. He hadn't smiled since Gai sensei had died during the battle.
"Everything is fine Naruto in fact it's great. The whirlpool doctors took a look at my injuries and said that they could heal me completely using an Uzumaki healing technique. That your grandfather had provided. The surgery will take place in 4 days. They want to wait until I am sufficiently prepared for it as it will take a long time to do."
Naruto smiled happily at his friend. "That's great lee Team 9 hasn't been the same without you. We will be happy to have you back with us fighting to keep the leaf from being destroyed completely by our enemies." Lee smiled back at him. "Thank you Naruto. That makes me feel much better well I have to go and check up on Neji and Tenten and let them know the good news."
With that Lee headed further down the corridor. Naruto watched him go and shook his head with a grin. After his conversation with Lee Naruto checked up on the rest of the wounded and then headed to the Whirlpool Academy. Keanu had told him before he left the house that the Academy students from Konoha would be enrolled in the Whirlpool academy so that they would continue on their journeys to become Ninja.
Tenten had found the files with the information on each of the students enrolled at the academy and sealed them in a separate scroll all to themselves. When they had gotten to Whirlpool Tenten had turned the scroll over to the Academy director but had first removed all the information about the various Konoha clans that were in the files.
She didn't want the Whirlpool to get the most classified information. Naruto had found out about it before he had gone to his family estate. Naruto had simply nodded and congratulated Tenten on her quick thinking. Then he had left with his family. Konohamaru had as usual gotten into trouble and was being yelled at by the Whirlpool instructor nothing new there.
After he left the academy he walked to the village gates and peered out toward the direction of the ruins of Konoha. He stood there for a long time by himself deep in thought. Iruka who had been confined to a wheelchair while his medical status was determined had decided to tour the village. When he came to the gates he saw his favorite blonde
"Hey Naruto." he called out. Naruto looked over in the direction of the yell and saw Iruka. "Hey Iruka sensei how are you?" He asked. Iruka smiled at him. "better the doctors took a look at my back and it turns out that a Kunai blade tip got stuck in my spleen that is what is keeping me from walking. They say that they can remove it and I can walk around again but I will have to relearn how to use the legs." he replied.
Naruto beamed at the news. "That's great Iruka sensei I am happy for you. I guess that means you will be back to chasing little academy brats around again." Naruto remarked. Iruka grinned in response. "Maybe I will maybe I won't. It depends on what your aunt says." Naruto nodded with a smile.
It was only his trained reflexes that warned him in time and had him leaping back several meters in Iruka's direction. Naruto turned around and looked up and saw a Person that looked like Uchiha Sasuke. He noticed the scratched Leaf forehead protector which signaled that he was looking upon a Leaf Missing Nin.
"Who are you?" Naruto growled as he summoned a few dozen Kage Bushin to surround the man. Even as he did this several Whirlpool Jounin also arrived with Neji, Tenten, and Choji in the lead. They had been nearby also touring the Village and had seen what was going on. "I am Uchiha Itachi and I would like to have a word with you Uzumaki Naruto."
Before Naruto could respond his view was blocked by Uzumaki Keanu who had just landed in front of him. "If you want Naruto you will have to get through the entire Whirlpool Uzumaki Clan Uchiha." Keanu snarled. Just as Naruto was about to sidestep his Uncle he was yanked back and dragged away by Neji and Tenten.
"Sorry Naruto but your aunt doesn't want you anywhere near this fight she wants you back in the estate where you will be safe and no she did not say why." Neji explained. Once Naruto was out of sight Keanu turned his attention back to the Missing Nin. "Now before I decide to tear you apart Itachi kindly explain why you are here and no you can not refuse to explain." Keanu growled dangerously.
"The reason I am here is simply to talk. I have no intention of hurting Naruto or anyone affiliated with either the Leaf Village or Whirlpool Village." "Whatever you want to say you can say it to me Uchiha and no I am not going to let you get anywhere near my nephew." Uzumaki Kerala snarled as she landed next to her brother.
Uchiha Itachi looked at the growing number of Whirlpool ninja among them he identified several Uzumaki most of them had angry looks on their faces the rest just looked bored with the whole thing. "Very well I will tell you what you want to know. After that will you let me speak to the Yondaime's son?" Itachi answered while holding his hands up and away from his sides in an obvious attempt to show that he meant no harm.
Itachi was knocked to the ground and forcible searched by the Whirlpool Anbu that had been on the scene for several minutes. He felt a blade press up against his neck. "How do you know that Naruto is the Yondaime Hokage's son?" an extremely cold voice asked. Itachi did not answer but allowed himself to be forcibly dragged into the village he made no attempts to resist in any way.
As they walked Uzumaki Kerala glared at him. She like all of the other Whirlpool and Leaf ninja was on guard against any trickery on Itachi's Part. After they arrived in the Whirlpool Kage office he was forcibly thrown into a chair and had several chakra absorption seals place on him by the Whirlpools resident seal expert. She even placed one on his forehead to prevent him from using his sharingan.
"Alright Uchiha talk if you convince me that you speak the truth then maybe I will let you speak to Naruto not before." Kerala said with a glare that would have made Orochimaru cower in a corner. "Very well. First off while I was responsible for the Uchiha Massacre I was acting under orders of the Third Hokage."
Those words made several of the other Ninja including the 2 Leaf Ninja stiffen. Kerala motioned for Itachi to continue but said nothing. "My father Uchiha Fugaku was plotting a coup against the village and over 95 percent of the Uchiha clan was behind him in it. I however was not I reported the information to the Third and the Council. They asked me to spy on the Uchiha clan and learn more about their plans and goals.
Over the next few months I gathered more and more information about the plot. Danzo, Homura, and Koharu decided in the end to completely wipe out the clan. I was ordered to slaughter the entire clan leaving no survivors. I completed my task but I left my little brother Sasuke alive for reasons that are my own."
Itachi explained. There was complete silence in the room for a few minutes as the various Ninja absorbed the information that Itachi had just given them. "Why have you come here Itachi? You have to know that you will not leave this village alive." Uzumaki Kerala asked. "I wanted to tell Naruto about his team mate Sasuke I have intercepted information pertaining to him."
Itachi explained. "As far as any of us know the Uchiha boy is dead but if you have information that differs than by all means tell us because you are not going to speak to Naruto." Uzumaki Keanu said with a scowl. Itachi looked at him for a moment before sighing. "Very well. During Naruto's battle with Shukaku. One of Orochimaru's men snuck up behind Sasuke and knocked him out.
His name is Yakushi Kabuto and he is Orochimaru's right hand man. He than took Sasuke to the sound village in the Land of Rice." Itachi said. Kerala nodded in response then spoke. "You have given us more than enough information to let you live Uchiha. For the moment anyway" with that she started to leave "wait there is one more piece of information that the Leaf Ninjas will need to know about." Itachi exclaimed. Kerala turned back to him with a raised eyebrow.
"Explain and this had better be good Uchiha I still haven't made up my mind if I should kill you or not." she replied. "I know the current location of the Slug Sannin lady Tsunade." Itachi explained. The two Leaf Nins started at this but settled down after receiving a look from the Uzukage. "Okay Itachi you have my attention the leaf ninja would not forgive me if I didn't take the chance and try to bring in the legendary Slug Sannin Tsunade."
Itachi nodded again and begin to speak. "As of 3 days ago she was in Viola town and in 5 days she will be in Tanzaku town to take part in a gambling tournament. The prize is approximately 500 Million Ryo. I know this because an acquaintance of mine Sasori of the Red Sands over heard her talking with a woman with black hair by the name of Shizune who I know for a fact is the niece of Tsunade's deceased boyfriend Dan."
He replied with a shrug. The Godaime Uzukage was silent for a long time as she though about the information that Itachi had just given her. Finally she spoke. "Uchiha Itachi as you know. A missing Nin of your caliber and crimes will never be trusted by any village or allowed to stay in one. Because of the information you have given us. I will spare your life but I will not permit you to keep your Sharingan. I intend to seal it away. As soon as this is done you will be escorted to the village entrance and freed. Never come here again Uchiha."
She then turned to the seal expert. "Do it and use your most powerful Seal Jutsu." Itachi was dumbstruck. "You can't do that." he growled but the Whirlpool Ninja restrained him as the Seal expert started to place various seals on his head and back. "No" he shouted as he fought to get free. But no matter how hard he fought he could not get free of their grip.
After Itachi had his eyes sealed he was escorted to the village entrance and freed. He glared at them but said nothing and left. The Whirlpool Ninja watched him until he was out of sight. "You going to tell Kakashi?" Keanu asked his sister. She looked at him. "How can I not? She is the last surviving member of the Sannin. As well as Naruto's Godmother." she replied. Keanu nodded and then left the room.
Meanwhile outside the village a few miles away a couple of Mist Anbu teams and a Swordsman of the mist were heading home after a mission to the destroyed Leaf village. They were under orders to confirm if the Leaf still stood. "Well look who we have here a bunch of Mist turkeys and a child playing at being a Swordsman of the Mist."
A voice called out. The Mist Ninja promptly scattered and started to look for the voice. It was the swordsman who spotted him. "Kisame" he shouted in alarm. Kisame grinned sadistically and attacked. The 2 swordsman started fighting while the other Mist Ninja surrounded the two in order to not let Kisame escape. The battle raged back and forth for what seemed like hours. Kisame growled in frustration. "This brat is strong. Hmm this could be a problem." he thought as he blocked a powerful blow from his right.
As they fought a Whirlpool Anbu team arrived on the scene. Once they took in what was happening they joined the Mist Anbu teams in surrounding the combatants. They were not going to let Kisame escape. They conversed with their Whirlpool counterparts and then focused on the fighting between the 2 swordsmen. Kisame was now getting nervous.
Whoever this kid was he was powerful. Sensing that his opponent was starting to get tired the Mist Swordsman redoubled his efforts and signaled for the other Mist Ninja to join the battle. A few moments later Kisame in his efforts to avoid being killed by the other swordsman tripped on an upturned root. As he fell back he tried to shield his body with his sword but to no avail.
The sword was knocked aside and then his opponent brought his sword down in a sweep. Kisame's head separated from his body in a red spray of blood. It bounced a few feet away then stopped. After a few moments of catching his breath the swordsman turned to his fellows and noticed for the first time the presence of the Whirlpool ninja. He nodded in their direction but otherwise did not speak.
The leaders of the two groups conversed for a few minutes. This was how the Mist learned of the Leaf Survivors in the Whirlpool village. Once everything was taken care of including disposing of Kisame's body and sealing his head in order to collect the bounty the two groups split up both heading home to their respective villages.
In the Hidden sand village the people were recovering from the surprise attack by sound on their village. A captured Sound Nin said that Orochimaru had ordered a full scale attack on sand in order to cripple his former allies. When the Kazekage had left the village to go to Konoha he had taken the majority of the sands forces.
Before he left the total number of Sand Shinobi was 1400 Ninja and Kunoichi. When he had left he had taken 1100 shinobi with him. They were mostly Chunnin and Jounin. When the survivors of the attack returned they found their village in ruins and almost all of the remaining Ninja dead. Of those that left only 234 had returned out of the original 1100. Of the 300 ninja that had stayed behind only 26 had survived and they were all genin. All told the Sand Village had only 250 ninja left.
