Hello everyone, How is everyone doing?
TigrezzTail: Yeah he is pretty much derailing. He isn't crying as much but he is thinking of ways to talk to Sasuke and the one way that came up was that one.
Guest; Melyway: Thank you.
inuyasha16451: Thank you and here's an update. :)
I hope you enjoy the chapter.
"YOU want to do what now?" Tsunade asked shocked.
"I want to go back to my family village. It would be nice to learn the seals of my bloodline. Not only that but I would like Itachi to come with me so he can get some space from the villagers. He needs some time to get used to the fact of being back. The village isn't used to him and I am tired of them trying to harm him. Just let us get away for a while." Naruto said.
"What about you being Hokage?" Tsunade asked.
"Make Kakashi Hokage until I get back. I need my time to feel better about Sasuke's death anyway." Naruto said.
"I get it Naruto I really do but what about the village? I thought you wanted to be Hokage." Tsunade asked.
"I do and I still am I just need some space. I need to help him find himself and I need to find myself again. Most of my life surrounded Sasuke and helping him now I need to help myself and help Itachi." Naruto said.
"I understand, how long do you want?" Tsunade asked.
"Ten years," Naruto said.
"TEN YEARS!" Tsunade screamed standing from her chair.
"I understand that it is a long time but right now I am seventeen and in ten years I will be mature enough to take the spot as Hokage." Naruto said.
"Who do you think we should give the Hokage spot to?" Tsunade asked.
"Kakashi," Naruto said.
"Fine, I can agree with this but you have to do something for me too." Tsunade said with a proposition.
"What is it?" Naruto asked.
"You have to make annual meetings with all the village nations. I want you to be mine and Kakashi's spokesperson when I ask you to be. Just be needed when I need you to be or when Kakashi needs you to be." Tsunade said.
"Thank you Tsunade," Naruto said with a soft smile that she never seen before.
"It's no problem Naruto." Tsunade said.
"No it means a lot to me and I really appreciate you doing this for me thank you." Naruto said walking around her desk giving her a hug that she slowly returned.
She loved the young blonde and felt bad that he lost a part of who he was from losing his best friend. She knew how he felt especially seeing as Jiraiya died and Orochimaru went bad. She understood and she wanted Naruto to find himself like she did. Hell, if it wasn't for him and Jiraiya she would of never came back in the first place.
"Take your time to find you again." Tsunade said pulling away and pointing to Naruto's chest with a smile.
"Thanks Granny," Naruto said hugging her one more time then jumping out the window to his house with Itachi.
"I hope you find yourself again soon." Tsunade whispered to herself as she sat back down at her seat.
Naruto practically flew over the rooftops to get back to Itachi he wanted to tell him so they could get out of the village as soon as possible. Naruto walked inside the house and got bombarded with a strong smell of food coming from the kitchen. Naruto couldn't deny the fact that he liked coming home to someone it made him feel wanted and loved. That's all he ever really wanted in his life.
"Itachi," Naruto called out to him.
"In the kitchen," Itachi said out loud.
Naruto walked to the back of the house and couldn't help but smile when he spotted that Itachi was making Ramen and Dango both of their favorites on the table.
"Seriously Itachi, you made both our favorites." Naruto said with a soft chuckle.
"Yeah why not?" Itachi asked tilting his head back to glance at Naruto.
He would never admit this to the blonde but he loved cooking for someone other than himself, he also enjoyed the blonde's presence a lot. It was so warm and welcoming that Itachi couldn't help but bask in it.
"It's not a problem so what's the occasion?" Naruto asked.
"Nothing just thought we would both want it." Itachi said sitting across from Naruto.
"We most definitely do." Naruto said with a smile.
"So how was your talk with Lady Tsunade?" Itachi asked.
Itachi would deny completely that he was curious but he was extremely curious.
"We're going on a mission." Naruto said.
"Naruto..." Itachi said sighing his hand going in his hair. "You know I don't want to be a ninja anymore that means no more missions." Itachi said.
"It's not like that Itachi. It's for us to find ourselves again and figure out who we want to be. You want to get out of the image of being a damn martyr or traitor but staying here isn't solving jack shit. You could have been Hokage and I know that was your dream at one point of time. We just need to find who we want to be again. I want you to be happy but I also want to be happy being here and at the moment it isn't making us happy just uncomfortable." Naruto explained.
"I... don't how anyone would feel about me leaving the village with the world's hero." Itachi said in a tone that was disheartening.
"Itachi it is already a plan and we are going. We need to find ourselves and we have ten years to do it." Naruto said with a smile.
"What?" Itachi asked shocked.
"We have ten years to find out who we want to be. Honestly I don't even know if I want to be Hokage still so much has changed along with my point of view." Naruto said smiling.
"You thought a lot about this, huh?" Itachi asked and Naruto nodded at him. "Do you think we really can do it?" Itachi asked as he stood up to get their food on the table.
"Yes, I know we can." Naruto said pulling his food to him.
"Thank you Naruto I am happy you're here with me." Itachi said with a small smile that made Naruto happy.
"You're helping me too Itachi so it's not a problem." Naruto said.
They ate their food quietly but they both had thoughts going in their head wild and completely distracting them from wanting to even talk to each other. They both had different thoughts but it revolved around each other no matter how much the other person didn't know how the other felt. Itachi was happy that Naruto was trying to change them because he didn't think he could do it by himself and he was being honest with himself on that one. Naruto felt if he was alone he wouldn't even try to make progress on making himself better it was because of Itachi that he wanted them to change.
"I don't think I would have come back if it wasn't for you though Naruto." Itachi said.
"Where would you have gone? If not home." Naruto said.
"Where did you hear that from? It was a very good proverb." Itachi asked shocked that something so philosophical came out of Naruto's mouth not because he thought he was stupid or anything but because it wasn't expected of the blonde ninja.
"I thought it." Naruto said shrugging his shoulders as he drank his broth from his Ramen. "Be sure to be ready by morning because we are leaving then." Naruto said putting his dish in the sink and heading out the kitchen.
"NARUTO! Where are you going?" Itachi asked slightly freaked out.
"I am going to Sasuke's room to pack my stuff then when you're done with your food we're going by Shikamaru's house to tell him what's going on." Naruto said.
"Are you going to tell your teammates about this plan of leaving with me?" Itachi asked.
"I haven't really decided yet seeing as they don't agree with me being with you." Naruto said.
"Naruto, don't stop talking to them because I am here." Itachi said.
"It's not about just you Itachi." Naruto said turning his head away so Itachi couldn't see his face. "It's the fact that they don't trust my judgement of you to understand my reasons for being with you. I don't get how they have such little faith in me." Naruto said.
"They don't have little faith in you. They are just scared that I will hurt you. Can you really blame them considering everything I put my own clan through?" Itachi asked.
"That's not the point Itachi and you know it." Naruto said walking away before Itachi could even say anything again.
Itachi sat there thinking about Naruto's words he couldn't help but understand but feel bad at the same time. They were here for him since he was a kid. Never mind no they weren't they only started being his friend when he began to be a ninja. He became a hero then everyone started to love him. At least Itachi could say he cared about him since the beginning. Itachi stopped thinking about it altogether in favor of eating his food and getting ready to go.
This past week Naruto and Itachi hung out with Shikamaru almost every day. Itachi was now comfortable around him and they even talked while playing a game of GO. Itachi never thought anyone would feel comfortable around him like Naruto was but Shikamaru and Choji proved him wrong.
"Hey guys," Shikamaru said as they walked up to his porch.
"Hey Shika, what are you doing?" Naruto asked.
"I have a mission tomorrow with Sakura and Shino." Shikamaru said.
"Really? That sucks." Naruto mumbled.
"What's going on Naruto?" Shikamaru asked sitting on his porch.
"We're leaving tomorrow for a while." Naruto said sitting next to Shikamaru.
It was weird for Itachi but he felt a twinge of something he didn't understand by seeing Naruto so close to Shikamaru. He walked to them and sat in between them without warning.
"Damn Itachi sit on top of me why don't you." Naruto commented making Shikamaru chuckle.
"Where do you plan on going?" Shikamaru asked looking over Itachi who was now sitting in between them.
"Oh, that's a secret." Naruto said with a sly smile on his face.
"Do I even want to know what you're planning?" Shikamaru asked.
Naruto just smiled but went silent looking at the sky leaving the question unanswered. It was at least fifteen minutes later before Naruto decided to speak again.
"The sky is extremely beautiful with all the stars in it." Naruto muttered.
"Naruto your acting weird." Shikamaru said looking toward Naruto again.
"Maybe I was always weird." Naruto said with a smile appearing to his face.
It was a smile that neither men seen before. It was a rare smile that said Naruto was deep in thought and it was a sweet sight.
"Naruto, I think I like this more thoughtful you. Don't get me wrong I liked you before but it seems like you're really trying to find out who you are. When you do find out who you are I will be happy to call you my friend again." Shikamaru said making Naruto turn to him with a big smile and a tear rolled down his face shocking both men. "I'm sorry I didn't mean..." Shikamaru started rambling only to be stopped by Naruto's hand.
"It's okay; I appreciate those words more than you will ever understand despite how smart you are. I appreciate you as my friend Shikamaru more than you will ever know. I thank you," Naruto said as he wiped the tears from his eyes.
It went silent again. Itachi felt like he wasn't even there until he felt Naruto lean against him like he usually does when he wants comfort. Itachi personally loved the gentle nudge on his shoulder.
"I hope you two get everything you deserve in life because out of everyone in the world you two struggle the most and suffered beyond belief. I wish the best for the both of you and if it's not in Konoha I hope you find yourselves and make your way back home someday. Good luck on your journey you two and write me as much as you two can." Shikamaru said standing up directly in front of both of them wanting them to hear his words clearly.
"Thank you Shika," Naruto said standing up pulling him into a hug.
"Take care of yourselves you two. I will be here if you ever need me I promise." Shikamaru said loud enough for both to hear.
"I thank you too Shikamaru." Itachi voiced for the first time since saying hi to him.
"No problem, but now I have to go to sleep because my mission is at seven in the morning and it's about to be eleven at night." Shikamaru said making the other two chuckles at the same time.
He glanced at both of them and couldn't help the smile that appeared on his face.
'There going to be fine as long as they have each other.' Shikamaru thought to himself.
"Let's get going then Itachi because we have our own packing to do." Naruto said with a smile.
"Yes, bye Shikamaru." Itachi said.
"It's see you later not bye. It makes me feel like you won't be back." Shikamaru said.
"Sorry, see... you later." Itachi said unsure of himself.
"That's right Itachi I will see you when you get back. Be safe now you two. Itachi keep Naruto safe." Shikamaru said walking toward his door.
"What about me?" Naruto asked.
"You keep Itachi safe." Shikamaru said with a smile. "But I thought you already knew that, that's why I didn't say it to you." Shikamaru said as he walked to his door.
"Thanks, Shikamaru," Naruto said and then they were off toward their house.
They decided a night walk was good for them. It made them both feel at ease despite feeling the stares from the other people that were out at night as they walked to the Uchiha district.
"You know it is really quiet in this area." Naruto said.
"A part of me thinks about just destroying the whole district aside from our home." Itachi said making Naruto smile. "What are you looking at me like that for?" Itachi asked as Naruto just stared at him with a weird smile.
"You said our home." Naruto said happily looking up at the sky with his hands in the back of his head.
"It is your home too Naruto." Itachi said.
"I'm glad to hear you say that. I don't think I ever had any place to call my home. Until now I always felt out of place." Naruto said with a sad smile appearing on his face that Itachi didn't like.
"You know my mom wanted to adopt you but third wouldn't let anyone adopt you because anyone close to your parents would leave you with a target on your back." Itachi said.
"The thought of someone actually wanting me is news to me and makes me feel happy that I had someone at least trying to get me." Naruto said.
"I'm kind of glad she didn't get you seeing as what happened in the end but maybe just maybe things would have been different for everyone." Itachi said.
"It's too late to think about it now. We just got to move forward with life and see where the rest of our life takes us." Naruto said with a smile.
"I really don't know what I would do without you." Itachi said completely serious.
"You would live." Naruto said. "But I am glad I have you too." Naruto said turning to Itachi giving him a hug.
"Let's get back to the house and get ready for our long trip." Itachi said pulling away from Naruto slowly not really ready to lose the contact.
"Your right about that." Naruto said pulling Itachi to the house.
"So where are we going?" Itachi asked as they walked upstairs in the house.
"Not telling you." Naruto said chuckling. "It's a surprise." Naruto said in a sing song voice making Itachi kick him. "That wasn't nice Itachi." Naruto said in a scolding tone turning to Itachi.
"Either is you not telling me where we are going? I have been to more places then you considering I traveled all five nations." Itachi said walking to his door.
"So, what, I am still not telling you until we get there." Naruto said with a cheery smile.
"Shithead," Itachi grumbled and walked in his room.
Itachi was laying in his bed for about five minutes before he heard a soft knock on his door with Naruto popping his head in the room.
"Itachi, can I sleep by you?" Naruto asked.
"Yeah, come on." Itachi said kind of shocked by Naruto but didn't want to reject him.
It was either one or the other trying to sleep and seek comfort both didn't seem to like to be alone after the death of Sasuke. I think them being alone pretty much all their lives and now having someone there is what keeps them wanting that constant comfort from each other. They didn't have to have it because they were used to not having it but both craved it.
Itachi moved over on his bed to let Naruto come lay by him. Through the night they were back to back but eventually Itachi turned to Naruto seeking warmth grabbing a hold of him and pulling him against his chest. Naruto never pulled away. The next morning came and Naruto woke up to him by himself in the room. His sharp ears caught the shower running and knew that's where Itachi was. As for him he decided to cook something to eat making him go downstairs to the kitchen happy that there were extras from last night because the Ramen Itachi made was giving Ichiraku's a run for their money if he decided to make Ramen for a living.
"Naruto?" Itachi called out breaking Naruto from his thoughts.
"In the kitchen," Naruto said making Itachi come to him.
Itachi was toweling his hair with a pair of pants on but no shirt. Naruto couldn't help but stare.
"What are the plans today?" Itachi asked.
"We're going to Lady Tsunade today to get you medicine so we can keep you healthy. They are probably being going to give you a checkup to see how you're doing before we hit the road. But that's a good thing considering we don't want no problems to creep up when we're on the road." Naruto said.
"Am I going to have to fight?" Itachi asked.
"No, not unless you want to or we get attacked and I can't handle the people myself which is doubtful." Naruto said.
"Okay," Itachi said a small smile coming to his face.
"Itachi your hair is all the way down to your ass. Do you think you should cut it?" Naruto asked.
"No fucking way," Itachi said firmly pulling his hair to his hands.
"Okay," Naruto said putting his hands up in surrender finishing warming up his food and setting two bowls out for him and Itachi. "Just sit down and eat before we go." Naruto said.
The breakfast was quiet. Naruto was done before Itachi and went to take a shower before they left for ten years knowing them more and likely won't be back until they were ready to come back.
Itachi wasn't really sure whether this was a good idea to do to begin with. How would the people of the village get used to him if he was gone? Maybe he should mention that to Naruto. That thought alone made him get up to go and talk to Naruto.
"Naruto," Itachi called from outside the bathroom.
"Yeah?" Naruto called popping his head out of his shower.
"How is this going to help the village get used to me again if I'm not around?" Itachi asked leaning against the wall for Naruto's response.
The door swung open with a towel wrapped around Naruto's waist. Itachi eyed him up and down and made it to Naruto's face which looked extremely irritated and angry.
"What?" Itachi asked.
"It doesn't matter about them. We are doing this to find out that we are not who they are. We need to find who we want to be. Now stop trying to get out of this and go get ready." Naruto said pushing Itachi off the wall.
Itachi didn't say anything just walked away to pack all his things.
'Why does Naruto want to run away so badly?' Itachi questioned in his head.
Naruto went back into the bathroom and put his head against the shower wall and let the tears go down his face.
"Damn it," Naruto whispered holding the sobs down because he didn't want Itachi to hear him. "What the fuck should I do Sasuke?" Naruto whispered again.
Naruto pulled himself together and cleaned himself off and was ready to go out there once he felt like he had himself together again. When he got out there Itachi was in the living room ready to go.
"Itachi did you save Sasuke's eyes?" Naruto asked.
"Yes," Itachi responded curiously.
"Good, because I know you are losing your sight and we need to give you his eyes." Naruto said.
"WHAT?!" Itachi screamed standing up. "I am not wearing my little brother's eyes." Itachi said not realizing he was walking toward Naruto.
"Listen to me Itachi," Naruto was saying but couldn't finish.
"I will not use my brother's eyes." Itachi growled out.
"I SAID LISTEN DAMN IT!" Naruto screamed making Itachi back up a little in shock. "He wanted you to use them. He said that he remembered you saying your eyes were going bad and told me to tell you to use them." Naruto said.
"When did he say this to you?" Itachi asked not really believing what Naruto was saying.
"The night I summoned him. He told me all that you two talked about the night before he came to help me. He told you to take care of me if something happens to him he made you promise." Naruto said.
Itachi looked taken back. He didn't want to believe his little brother told him to take his eyes but he was starting to believe the blonde. It wasn't like Naruto to lie anyway. Not only that Itachi knew it would embarrass his brother if he told him that himself so it does make sense that he tells Naruto instead of himself.
"I hope you know that's not why I stay." Itachi said.
It was Naruto's turn to look taken back. Naruto wasn't really sure what Itachi was talking about.
"I don't stay because of the promise. I stay because I want to stay." Itachi said.
"Then take the eyes for me." Naruto said.
"I hope you know if I do this I won't be able to travel or use my eyes for at least five days." Itachi said sighing and shaking his head.
"I have an idea for that." Naruto said.
"You planned this out, didn't you?" Itachi asked.
"Yup basically," Naruto said nodding his head.
"I would like to know what we're going to be doing." Itachi said.
"You will see." Naruto said with a smile that Itachi oddly didn't trust.
Naruto ran up to his room to grab his things and packed his bag giving Itachi plenty of time to think. Itachi was slightly irritated over the fact that Naruto never told him anything he hated to be in the dark and now really understood why Sasuke was so angry about being the only one in the clan to not know anything about the coup. When Naruto came back downstairs he decided to question the blonde again.
"How will I see if you expect me to put Sasuke's eyes and I have to be blind for at least a week and a half?" Itachi asked.
"Don't worry about that." Naruto said pulling Itachi out the house with their bags.
"Are we going to Lady Tsunade?" Itachi asked as he let Naruto pull him along the streets while carrying their bags.
"Yes," Naruto said then got annoyed and flickered there.
"Naruto, Itachi? What are you two doing here? I thought you two would be gone already." Tsunade asked shocked.
"We want you to make the operation of putting Sasuke's eyes in Itachi's for him before he goes permanently blind also before we leave." Naruto explained.
"You want me to what?" Tsunade asked.
"Put Sasuke's eyes in Itachi." Naruto said in a more demanding voice.
"Naruto you realize that is a very demanding procedure right? Sasuke's eyes could possibly not match up with Itachi." Tsunade explained.
"I already know all that and we both know that they do." Naruto said.
"Itachi do you even want to do this? You do get a choice in the matter no matter what Naruto says you can choose to not do this." Tsunade said.
"I know but it was Sasuke's last wish that he told Naruto to make me do so I will honor both of them by doing this. My brother's eyes do correlate with mine so that shouldn't be a problem." Itachi said still holding onto Naruto.
"Okay then let's get started." Tsunade said gesturing for Itachi to follow.
"Do you want me to go with you?" Naruto asked looking to Itachi's eyes.
"No I should be fine. Say goodbye to your friends because we won't be around for a while right?" Itachi said with a smirk.
"I guess your right on that one." Naruto said.
"Itachi come on." Tsunade said.
"I'm coming," Itachi said noticing the hesitance Naruto was showing to leave him. He also noticed Naruto was holding his hand now. "I will be fine you know? Just go and say bye then come right back. I will be here waiting for you I promise." Itachi said leaning his head against Naruto's knowing it would bring the blonde comfort.
Tsunade just watched the two with fond eyes. She couldn't believe everything that has been happening.
"I will be back then." Naruto said setting their bags down to seal them in a scroll. "Granny, I will be able to come in the room when I get back right?" Naruto asked not looking toward them.
"Yes you can go into the room." Tsunade said.
"Okay," Naruto said jumping out the window.
"Come on Itachi," Tsunade said pulling Itachi out of his trance from where he was staring at the previous spot Naruto was in.
Itachi followed Tsunade and for some reason started to feel uneasy and scared about the fact that he was about to get surgery and no one he trusted was here. The only person he did trust was Naruto.
"Don't worry Itachi, you know as well as I do that Naruto would level the village if someone attempted anything on you." Tsunade said patting his shoulder making him feel slightly better.
"I... I don't have any idea what he is planning." Itachi voiced as Tsunade slowly got started with the procedure.
Naruto remembered making him go back to give them the eyes.
"Here Granny," Naruto said popping into the operation room giving her the eyes.
"Thank you," Tsunade said catching it with practiced ease and not taking her eyes off Itachi.
Shizune was in the room with them and Tsunade found herself in a casual talk with Itachi until she had to give him medication to stop the pain then he was out of it. Naruto came back faster than he expected to a lot of his friends didn't really want to talk to him because they thought he was making a mistake the only two that said bye to him was Hinata and Choji because they were the only two that seemed to trust his judgement. He gets they are all just worried about him but they can at least take his word for Itachi.
"You're finally back," Tsunade said as he climbed through the window.
"Yeah, where's Itachi?" Naruto asked looking around.
"He's in the other room sleeping. He won't be able to use his eyes for at least a week. I personally think you shouldn't travel with him like that but I am assuming you had this already planned out." Tsunade said.
"Yes I do, we will be fine I promise. Oh and make Shikamaru the advisor for future reference." Naruto said as he went to where Itachi was.
When Naruto got into the room he noticed Itachi actually was awake. He figured that Itachi woke up when he felt his chakra around.
"You came back." Itachi said.
"Of course I did I wouldn't leave you behind. How does it feel?" Naruto asked as he walked up to the bed sitting in the chair next to the bed so he could be near Itachi.
"I feel like I am on drugs in which case I actually am. How was saying goodbye?" Itachi asked.
"Only two people said goodbye to me everyone else thinks I am crazy and that it's a bad idea but whatever. I am still going to do it." Naruto said.
"Would if they are right? Would if I'm not good for you?" Itachi asked.
"Shut up Itachi I don't want to hear you're not good for me. We're doing this together because we want to." Naruto said.
"What if I don't want to go with you?" Itachi asked coldly.
"I am starting to think Sasuke's eyes got to your personality." Naruto said feeling Itachi's forehead.
"Answer me Naruto what if I don't want to go?" Itachi asked in a cold tone that reminded Naruto of Sasuke.
"I wouldn't force you if that's what you're asking. I wanted to go mainly because I know you don't feel at ease here and the longer we stay the more you want to run away. I don't even know where to start with helping ourselves in that house that just reminds us of what we lost. I know you lost more and that's exactly why I wanted to do this for you too. But if you don't want to go and you want to stay here you can but I'm not. I have to have some time away to find who I am again." Naruto said getting up from his seat.
"Don't go," Itachi said grabbing his hand quickly. "I'm sorry it's not like I don't want to go with you but don't you think you give so much up for me and my brother? Don't you think we're a bit too reliant on each other? I don't want you to lose the people that care about you because of me." Itachi said looking down at Naruto's hand he was holding.
Naruto sighed and sat down not letting go of Itachi's hands shaking his head.
"How can I make you understand? I don't want to leave you alone it doesn't matter if you were once my enemy. Hell you weren't EVER my enemy to begin with because I know if you wanted to catch me you would have from the beginning. You never wanted to hurt me so it doesn't matter because eventually the people that care about me are going to realize that you don't want to hurt me especially when they see us come back together unharmed." Naruto said with a smile that Itachi couldn't see but he knew was there.
"You're amazing you know that right?" Itachi said with a small smile appearing on his face.
"Thanks, it means a lot to me that you say that." Naruto said.
"Can we leave the village tomorrow?" Itachi asked.
"Yeah we got to make sure your eyes are fine anyway." Naruto said with a smile.
By the end of the day the next day they were heading out the village. Choji, Hinata, and Kiba being dragged to the gates by a stubborn Hinata because she wasn't going to let Kiba dodge out of talking to Naruto about how he feels. Then there was Tsunade, Shizune, Kakashi, and Iruka at the gates with a smile on their face.
"Remember Naruto you have to write me every week. Itachi don't let him forget." Tsunade said glancing at both of them.
"I won't," Itachi said holding Naruto's arm because he still couldn't see anything with his eyes wrapped.
"Itachi if you start to feel sick you have to tell Naruto so he can bring you back and I can give you a checkup understood?" Tsunade asked.
"Understood," Itachi said his arm tightening around Naruto's arm.
"Naruto I am happy to say that you are officially gone for ten years good luck." Tsunade said.
Naruto let go of Itachi for a moment but he noticed when Itachi didn't want to let him go along with all the other ninja around them.
"Thanks granny," Naruto said hugging her tightly then looked toward the three friends that came to see him off. "Bye guys I will see you in ten years or on missions when Granny sends you on them with me." Naruto said hugging each of them even though Kiba tensed when Naruto got to him. "Ten years will be no time. See you later, Iruka don't cry just make sure Kakashi does his job. Bye pervert." Naruto said hugging the rest that were there then going back to Itachi who was patiently waiting though he had a scowl on his face. It was quite humorous for Naruto but he didn't mention it.
Naruto got into a stance that no one recognized and used the Flying Thunder God technique shocking everyone because no one knew that Naruto knew that technique.
"Where are we Naruto?" Itachi asked after he realized they stopped traveling.
"Uzushiogakure," Naruto answered.
Reviews everyone,
I know it seems a bit weird and Naruto seems like there is a lot on his mind which there is but there was a whole conversation with Sasuke that no one heard. Naruto planned this a lot.
I hope you all enjoyed the chapter.
