Once outside Naruto had closed the door for the safety of the other orphans and had thrown the keys trough the open window of the office. After that he had spent close to an hour walking aimlessly through the streets, trying to think of some place to stay the night, only stopping when it started raining and taking shelter under a store forefront roof.
He had fallen asleep only to be woken by the now familiar message indicating that his Chakra and Health were full. It was still night and raining and according to his watch only half an hour had gone by. Realizing that he did not need as many sleep as he used to Naruto decided that he would continue his training. After all, what was a little rain to the future Hokage?
So Naruto started to job through the streets of Konoha while hoping above trash cans, avoiding drunks that had a nasty tendency of calling him 'Demon Child' or 'Useless' and the likes while throwing things at him and, when his stamina was empty he would sit somewhere protected from the rain to recover and use a soggy leaf or paper to practice Leaf Sticking in the meantime.
As the sky lighted and the rain stopped a new notice was announced by the voice.
"Ninjutstu Skill Leaf Sticking has reached 4/10.
Chakra Control +4%"
Naruto had also managed to raise his Dexterity by one too which brought it to ten.
Putting the paper on his forehead down Naruto went back to jogging aimlessly. As he did so he noticed that the drunks had left place to early risers such as Shinobis departing on missions or bakers and shop keepers. Still Naruto jogged through the streets, narrowly avoiding the people walking or sometimes crashing or bumping into them. In a particular occurrence he had to roll to escape a man's kick when he had crashed into him, this action owed him another stat point in Dexterity and the ire of the man.
Naruto disappeared in a deserted allee and took the time to think. Sleeping outside in the rain once was okay but he would need a place to live, sleep and eat soon enough. He also wanted it to be near a training ground, a convenience store, preferably one that did not hate him, chase him away or try to con him and near the Academy so that when he joined it in four years he wouldn't have to cross the entire village each morning. After reflexion Naruto realized that he would not be able to find such a place within his meager price range and that he would probably need to ask the Hokage for help if he wanted such a place.
His decision taken Naruto went to the Hokage tower and talked to the secretary, he was told to wait until the Hokage was free and quietly sat on a chair in the waiting area, pulling a leaf out of his pocket and practicing his Sticking Leaf skill. It was more than one point of Leaf Sticking later that the secretary, who had spent all this time expecting him to act rashly and pull a prank, lead him in the office.
As the door opened Naruto restrained his impultion to wave at the Hokage and call him Jiji and said while bowing
"Geating Hokage-Sama."
His salutations were followed by stuned silence. Then...
"Naruto, are you feeling alright?"
"I'm feeling great however i require your help with something."
"Oh?"
"The orphanage no longer wish to accomodate me."
Another silence.
"WHAT?!"
"They kicked me out yesterday evening, i now require your help obta-obtai- getting lodging." Not used to talking in such convoluted ways Naruto stumbled a bit. "Would my parents old house still be available?" he added after a thought.
"Your parents-? No, their personal house was destroyed. Burned to the ground."
Naruto was saddened at the news but had been expecting it.
"What about my Clan's..."
"It is still there but it is in bad shape and has been abandoned to Chakra Beasts and wild life. If you want to clean it up you would have to have the Civilian Council authorize the use of founds to pay Chuunins to cleans it of any threats and Genins to do the grunt work."
"And i suppose that the Council has the right and will refuse to authorise such actions."
"Correct..." answered the Hokage in a whisper.
"Then we need to remove the Council's control over my family's legacy. Knowing their hatred towards me and their greed they are bound to have done something stupid."
Naruto's tone was one of absolute conviction and Hiruzen was shocked to recognize it as the one the Yondaime had used when addressing his subordinates when he was serious.
"Are you asking me to antagonize the Council?" Demanded the Hokage with the same seriousness.
The veteran shinobi saw Naruto become thoughtfull and became impressed at the changes he saw. Gone was the pranking, unfocused and attention seeking youth. Now Naruto was a ball of intense concentration.
"Hokage-sama, i am sorry to say that i do not know what Antagonize means."
Sighting Hiruzen realized that as much as Naruto had changed he was also the same. A child with a naive view of the world and limited education.
"Antagonize means to make someone angry at you to the point that you may make them an enemy out of them."
"I see. I don't want to but if they have done something to my family's legacy it might be needed. ... Would it be such a bad thing for them to have to go? I mean, since you help me they must not like you either, right?"
"So, not only do you want me to make an enemy out of them you want me to kick them out of the council? Naruto, things are not as simple! The council does important work for Konoha, if i were to kick them off of it i would need to replace the members and they might not be as efficient as the current ones. Even more so i can't just decide to kick someone off of the council, i must have a valid reason."
"So if i find a good reason will you do it?" asked Naruto still as determined.
The Kage took the time to think about it. Naruto was the son of his successor and the reason why Konoha was still standing from the Kyuubi's attack. He knew he owed it to the boy to do so.
"Yes, i will." promised Sarutobi with a sad smile.
"Yatta!"
