Disciples, meetings, punishment

Yay new update!

Now to all you commenters who spoke up about my dangling out the idea of adding one or two women in.

Damn you have all been rather vocal about it being strictly NaruHina. Well I can't exactly fault all of you as I personally really like this pairing and was sort of hoping for this sort of outcome. If any of you looked through the comments you'd notice there's only one person who said yes to the harem and gave two girls who I've already said no to as for reasons I'd given last chapter.

But honestly I'd expected at least one person to ask one particular question. That being 'what about Konohamaru?'

Well with or without that question it'll be answered this chapter.

let the story begin!

" I really should have planned those visits for earlier."

Naruto sat on a on a bench in the deserted park. Why was it deserted? Simply because this was the same park he'd massacred those people when they dared harm his mate.

Giving a soft chuckle he flicked his ear ack to catch the whispers of three children who'd been following him for the past hour. He was fairly impressed with their dedication to following him, though the brats really could stand to have been more discreet. Not that it mattered, his sensing abilities would find even the most seasoned of jounin. After all, even the most hardened or conditioned ninja made sounds that his fox ears would easily pick up. Like say, a heartbeat.

He tuned in to their conversation.

"Kono-kun, you sure this is the guy your gramps told you about? The supposed 'strongest in the world'? He really doesn't look like much."

"Red hair, animal ears, violet eyes. Matches the description you gave us. But I agree with Meogi-san, he doesn't really seem like he'd be 'undisputed king of beasts'."

"I'm telling you guys it's him! Though I don't see the tails gramps mentioned so I am a bit sceptic myself, but there's no one else I've ever seen in the village that even closely matches the guy gramps told me about. This guy is either him, or his twin brother..."

"Well he's not my brother per say..."

Three strangled yelps sounded behind him as his clone dragged all three of the 11 year olds out to where he could see them. He really should thank his father for putting that imprint of his soul into the seal, it gave him so many useful jutsu when he, his mother, his father, and kyuubi all merged. Though he did gain their memories, it still hurt to know he'd never get a real chance to talk with them, or just a piece of them as it were. And slug his dad for sealing Kyuubi into him. Yeah, that would settle some issues. One good punch in the kisser. Well, the various jutsu made up for quite a bit.

And with his mindscape and seal merger he was giving plenty of time to not only shuffle through the memories but give those various techniques a try. Even learning the the shadow clone had been a massive boon as he'd taken to creating his own once he'd mastered the jutsu his parents had and the two tailed beast techniques the kyuubi used. Shaking himself from thought he looked down at the three kids.

"You three have been following me ever since I passed the dango shop. Care to say why?"

The boy with the ridiculously long scarf stood up.

"My name is Konohamaru, this is Udon and Meogi. We followed you because you looked like the guy gramps told me about."

Arching an eyebrow at the bold boy Naruto asked, "And pray tell, who is your gramps?"

Konohamaru huffed. "My jiji is the sandaime hokage."

"And?"

Konohamaru and company blinked. "Huh? What do you mean 'and'?"

A finger flick to the forehead was his only answer. Granted he flew a dozen feet from the finger flick, details.

"Kono-san/kun!" Yelled out the two kids left standing, shocked seeing their friend treated little more than a fly.

Naruto wagged the finger he just used. "Don't act arrogant with me kid. You are a baby chimp compared to your grandfather who is a silverback. And to me he has his own place compared to me. Below me of course, but then again everyone but the gods themselves are below me. So don't get full of yourself because a relative of yours is famous."

Konohamaru rubbed the slightly bleeding mark on his forehead as he looked at the older boy who still sat therewith a smirk. He's different, and that's what I need.

Dusting himself off the boy stood and walked until he was six feet from Naruto before bowing with as much respect he could muster for the older boy who looked confused at the gesture.

"Teach us please!"

"Huh?" Was the intelligent answer that Naruto gave.

Udon sucked in the snot that seemed to permenately hang from his nose before answering for the still kneeling Konohamaru. "He wants you to teach us sir. As the hokage's grandson he tends to get the same treatment from everyone trying to get in good favor with the sandaime. Basically suck ups. With me and Meogi-san his best friends it somewhat bleeds over to us as well. With you being the only person who seemingly doesn't care about his relations to the hokage he, no, WE, see you as possibly the only person capable of really teaching us."

With the explanation over the two standing children now also kneeled on either side of Konohamaru before they all chorused out. "Please teach us boss!"

Naruto stared blankly at the three kneeled before him. This wasn't in any plan of his, yet...

Looking at the leader of the trio he couldn't help but see some similarites between them. The drive he had before the merging to be seen for his true self, the courage to face on any challenge. Perhaps, a small test would be in order.

And so in silence they all stayed, him sitting there with a blank look as they stayed kneeled.

Ten minutes passed before Konohamaru, too used to getting things almost immediately finally ran out of patience and stood up glaring at the older boy.

"WELL?!"

A blank look was all he received, not even an eyebrow twitch.

Several tick marks appeared on the younger boys head at the impassive face that gave no indication that he was even breathing. Konohamaru finally loosing his temper leapt with a fist cocked back ready to slug the older boy before and ungodly pressure slammed him into the ground, his breathing labored as he could only stare up at the now standing Naruto who had a look of absolute rage on his face now.

"You forget yourself in front of your betters boy. I could kill you here and now and you know what? I wouldn't be punished more than a bit of guilt for giving the old man a bit of sadness at your death. Such is the power I have, the power of a king! You and your friends would wish to be my disciples yet you can't stand even a fraction of my true power! You want me to teach you worms something!? Then stand up on your own two feet and say it!"

Naruto lessened the killing intent he was emitting just enough that they could stand. Now to see if they'd dare to stand up to him after seeing just a fraction of his strength.

And he wasn't disappointed. Holding his smirk back he watched the three begin to shakily stand, fire blazing in their eyes as the wobbled on their legs. It took a minute but when they straightened up fuly they forced themselves to breath deep before shouting.

"TEACH US BOSS!"

He slowly raised the pressure on the three until they were having to hold each other just to stay upright. He stared at them darkly, inwardly laughing at seeing their scared and sweaty faces. He turned away and let the pressure dissapate.

"Fine, be here tomorrow at 7 in the morning."

The trio faceplanted at the casual order.

With a chuckled he turned his head to look back once more calling out. "Oh and be sure to eat well. I'm going to make you three either pass out, or have to crawl home when I finish your torme- I mean 'training'."

With that he disappeared, showing he was simply a shadow clone.

Konohamaru sighed. "Somehow I get the feeling we're either going to be legends, or in an asylum when all this is over."

In the hokage office Hiruzen who had been watching the interactions between the two sighed in relief. Happy and worried in almost equal measure he couldn't help but agree with his biological grandsons statement. His surrogate grandson would probably either make them strong, or break them horribly.

I'm getting too old for this shit.

5:59, Inuzuka compound.

The gate guards had been warned ahead of time to let him through when he arrived, so entering the compound was not made into an issue thankfully. He was politely directed to the clan heads house where Tsume stood waiting for him.

"Uzumaki-san welcome."

"Thank you Inuzuka-san, you home is quite comely."

Given the seriousness of the matter he'd decided to use a more serious personality for the time being. Best to reserve his insanity to be unleashed on the Hyuuga elders in a couple hours.

Tsume led him inside to he private study where she offered him tea which he declined. Once settled she started the discussion off.

"At the council meeting you said that my son had done something that offended you? Could you please elaborate?"

Naruto nodded. "Yes. Now it wasn't well known but when I was incarcerated, something I will be pranking all the clans for by the way, good luck with that. Anyway, part of the deal I made with the hokage was that I'd be given regular updates on several things. For about three years now those reports included your son on occasion doing something that I find rather unsavory. He apparently got it into his head that Hinata was available for courtship and as such has actively pursued her hand. I know for a fact you are aware I have marked her as my mate, so why did you allow this? I know you are aware of his actions."

Tsume sighed. "Yes, and I had pulled him aside when word reached me and told him she was already betrothed to someone but didn't say who. He didn't take it well and said he'd just challenge the suitor for the right and said he'd prove he was the alpha."

That got a bark of laughter. "Oh yes, heh, show the Apex you're an Alpha. Foolishness at it's best, or rather ignorrance."

Tsume nodded. It would do her no good to argue with the boy. Kuromaru upon returning to the compoundhad spread the word to all the hounds there and as they they had acknowledged Naruto as their king. Fighting the boy would only cripple her clan.

With a snort Naruto stood. "As thanks for attempting to sway him away from his idiocy I will give him two chances. When he hears of this he will most likely try to challenge him. I will not kill him, but I will beat him until he's out col and then leave him on your doorstep. You will do what you can to convince him to stay away. But should he not listen and try to fight me again, or worse, try to force himself on my mate, I will kill him without remorse."

Without even allowing her a word in edgewise Naruto left, not even caring that the sudden departure gave him more time to waste, and of course be bored. And a bored Naruto was good for no one.

And who would this directly effect?

Hyuuga compound, 5 minutes later.

The two Hyuuga guards were more tense then they had ever been. The only reason they weren't in an absolute panic was that Hiashi had given them plenty of warning that Naruto was not only free but would be visiting later on. Had the boy simply approached and entered they would have been okay.

But no, Naruto had instead chosen to simply stand a good twenty feet away and just unblinkingly stare at the two gate guards. Glancing at each other the guards quickly did a game of jan-ken-po. The right guard lost with a sigh.

He turned back to Naruto and hailed. "Uzumaki-san, you have been given permission already to come in when you arrive. Wouldn't you prefer to come in instead of standing there?"

No answer. To further emphasize that Naruto was seemingly ignoring them, a bird came and landed in the bright red hair.

The guards gave each other a look again before another game of jan-ken-po was played. This time the left guard lost and entered the gate. After ten minutes the guard returned with Hiashi whohad a raised eyebrow upon seeing the young bijuu-boy hybrid seemingly frozen on the spot, and that several birds had taken to treating him as a statue.

Sighing Hiashi knew what this was. "Naruto-san, I know your tick about verbal promises, so I would suggest going to check on my daughter. I have been informed she's been placed in room #329. I would suggest you go see her and make sure she's being given proper treatment."

Almost instantly Naruto smiled widely. "Ever the voice of reason, I see where Hina-hime gets it from. " In a burst of speed that made the comfortable birds chirp out in surprise at the sudden loss of their roosting spot, Naruto disappeared.

Hiashi sighed and turned to the now very confused guards. "Naruto is strange like this even before he was jailed. When he'd make a verbal promise or a statement like 'I'll be there around 8' such as this instance, if he happens to be more than ten minutes early or if his actions seem to deviate too far from his stated goal or action he does what he can to change that. I saw it happen once when Hinata said he would visit and bring a dozen flowers. Four hours later he showed up dirty and smelly but had a dozen wild flowers. As it happened, the Yamanaka flower shop had been closed early because the clan heads daughter got food poisoning and so they had to leave. The boy had ended up having to search for the flowers himself. The reason I say this is because in the future I can see this sort of thing happening every so often. If such a thing happens it's best to suggest something like I did that will allow him to complete his statement to his own appreciation and not end up causing you or other guards discomfort like he just was. Be sure to tell the others on guard duty this. Oh and be sure to expect him around 7:50. He'll want in at that point. Tell him that I have called a meeting for the elders at exactly 8, and that he will find me in my study before then."

Getting nods from the guards Hiashi swept back into his compound with a smirk. Soon the cancer of the elder council will be removed. Sorry father, but you lost any hope of surviving this when you ordered my daughter to be sealed.

Going to his study he passed by a visibly nervous Neji. Hiashi sighed, he couldn't punish the boy for his attempt at killing Hinata. Not with what Naruto had planned for the poor lad. When the hokage had informed him of what Naruto had said Hiashi had flinched with sympathy. It would have been simpler to just use the cage bird seal to give Neji pain until he fainted then what Naruto possibly had planned.

He had no dout that Neji had used his Byakugan and seen Naruto just staring outside the gate. At this point Hiashi was also sure the Naruto had somehow known Neji was looking and had stared at him, seeing as he had been seeming to stare through the two guards.

Hiashi continued to his study and returned to the damnable pile of paperwork on his desk. This was the reason no clan head ever really wanted to be hokage, they already knew about the horrifying thing that was paperwork, and they also knew that the hokage had at least five time the amount any clan head did at any given time.

Well, not anymore.

In his last couple visits to give the sandaime an update on Hinata he'd notice the dramatically reduced pile of paperwork and the general smugness the older ninja had. He wasn't sure of it, but he had suspicion that Naruto had told him his fathers secret of defeating paperwork.

Yes, Hiashi and the clan heads knew exactly who Naruto was and as such had no real dislike of him. Hell, Hiashi had been Minato's teamate along with Kushina, and Tsume and Hiashi's own wife had been very close friends with Kushina. It didn't even take his 'all seeing eyes' to see who the boys father and mother had been.

Shaking himself from those thoughts Hiashi began to think of a way he could possibly convince Naruto to divulge the secret. Maybe pay for an official wedding ceremony for him and Hinata? He was sure Hinata would convince Naruto to make it 'humanly' official despite the fact Naruto had pretty much placed an irremovable mark on her that tied them together for life.

7:51

A knock on the door made Hiashi flick his eyes to the clock before giving a slight smirk before turning to the door. "Please, come in Naruto-san."

A happily smiling Naruto opened and entered the study. "I must thank you for that Hiashi, seeing my precious hime cheered me right up! I was also able to make sure the doctors and nurses had all the right incentives to make sure she'd be right as rain quick as possible!"

Hiashi raised an ever regal eyebrow. "Dare I ask?"

"Oh I simply said that each day they passed my given deadline I would fill two rooms up and deliver two very fresh corpses, each with injuries and deaths that can only be described as 'lethally humorous'."

"Humorous to you or them?"

Naruto chuckled darkly at that. "You know? They asked that exact question. My reply simply was 'You really don't want to know, and you'd proably learn something about yourself if you do learn'."

Hiashi sighed rubbing his temple to stop the incoming headache as he looked up to the clock. "We should go, the meeting is in three minutes."

With a smirked Naruto raised his hand to stop Hiashi from standing. "I'll go by myself. Just send a doctor...oh in about thirty minutes. I'll be sure to sound proof the room. Wouldn't want anyone barging in to defend the oh so honorable council of elders."

Hiashi frowned. "And what stops them from simply running before you can stop them? Or gaining entrance without resorting to the method you used today at the council meeting today? I'd rather you not injuring more of my clan than you already have planned."

With a devious and dark smile Naruto shifted into an exact lookalike of Hiashi, though still having an evil smirk in place.

Hiashi's eyes widened. Naruto had morphed into his likeness sure, easy enough for any competent genin, but the method had for a moment, made Naruto look like a bluish blob in a humanoid shape.

"How...?"

The pseudo Hiashi shrugged. "It's like my clothes. I'm using bijuu level chakra with uzumaki density, I can make my chakra into anything from clothes, to items, to even make a disguise. Now you sit there and finish that endless stream of papers while I go remove a few stains. And be sure to send a doctor in thirty minutes."

Without another word the Hiashi double had swept out in a regal flourish that made the real Hiashi blink.

Is that really how I look when I leave like that?

Naruto had to bring out all the nobility of his stature to keep the face of a stoic Hyuuga clan head from cracking as he neared the elders who knew not the horrors they soon faced. Upon entering the room he swept his gaze over the five elders. Good, no one was missing.

Hiashi's father spoke up first. "What have you called this meeting for Hiashi?"

Naruto had to bite his tongue to hold in the maniacal cackle in his soul as he shut the door behind him, two seals shining under his hand. Thank you mother and father for your knowledge on sealing techniques.

With the silencing and locking seal in place he allowed a feral grin to grow on his face as he turned to the elders that raised eyebrows at the grin.

"It's simple honored council, you've all been called here to die."

That caused the elders to stand immediately in their revered Juken stances even as Hiashi's father roared out. "Hiashi have you gone mad?!"

As Naruto shifted back into his normal form he chuckled darkly before bursting out into the cackle he'd been holding back before simply saying. "Of course I have."

Twenty minutes later.

"Oh we've made terrible mistakes Naruto Sama! Please forgive us!"

"It seems rather late for this."

"Surely I can gain your forgiveness in some way?"

"I really don't think that's possible given the circumstances."

"Whatever could you mean?"

"Well you do seem to be missing your body."

Indeed, after the first ten minutes of a scene that could be described with various words such as 'bloody', or 'vomit inducing', 'hilariously horrifying' and of course 'that was actually posssible? I thought that was a myth'. Naruto was now using the head of Hiashi's father as a puppet so he could 'converse' with the now dead man. The bodies were now so torn and mixed around it was impossible to tell where one body started and ended.

Well it's not like Hiashi needed this room anytime soon.

Sighing as he'd finished rather quickly and the head puppet now bored him, he needed something to occupy him for another few minutes.

Sensing an approaching chakra signature he smiled darkly as he went to the door and yanked it open to reveal Neji who had started at the sudden action, and after registering a now bloody Naruto as being the one to do it...

Hiashi started as he sudden heard a high pitched and definitely girly scream come from down the hall. Turning back to his desk he kept himself busy, delibirately ignoring the sudden scream.

I don't want to know right now. I'm damn sure it's related to Naruto somehow. Whoever gave that scream either saw him bloody or saw the room and I know he wouldn't act so sloppily.

Swallowing the nerves down he summoned a doctor before confusing the woman by telling her to gather all of the family doctors and to document everything they found in the council room and to turn in a report the next morning. Deciding it best not to argue she had quickly left to do her given assignment, hoping it was short and simple so she could rest for the night. Poor blissfully ignorant woman.

Hiashi quickly decided it was time for bed after the doctor left. He quickly informed his guards outside his bedroom that if any of the family doctors came they were to be told that everything would have to wait until morning. No exceptions.

Naruto was now skipping happily on his way home reflecting the day as a whole.

Yes, this has been a very good day.

A/N

Well then we've seen how Naruto is now once again the teacher/boss of the Konohamaru corps, he's gave an ultimatum to Tsume about Kiba and made a real mess of the Hyuuga elders. Neji gets punishment number 1 out of... what you'd thought I'd tell you? dream on my readers! muahahaha!

side note, I've been told I've essentially made Naruto into Deadpool but with Hinata as a leash. Not my intention. He will not have voices in his head or break the fourth wall and start chatting with the commenters. Interesting as that would be...hmm, maybe a different story.

Next chapter will be the torture (ahem) I mean training of the Kono-corps and meeting up with Jiraiya. I already have a couple ideas for the trios training, but feel free to add in ideas, nothing like carrying boulders please, they aren't Rock Lee's level...yet...

And now, a quote I like. Why? because I'm bored, it's 1:30 in the morning, and I'm absolutely going to warble gurble... (collapses on keyboard)

"Rejoice, for truly horrifying things are about to happen to you. Now bend over and prepare your ass." - You don't want to know
