CHAPTER 4

THE SAGE PERVERT

AND

THE DUKE WOLF

-4:30 am-

The early in the morning or late at night depending on who you are asking, Zenaku heard a loud knocking at his door. his yellow eyes gained a feral shine to them as he open the door to be greeted to three members of the ANBU one female and two male; Neko, Spider, and Crow.

"Uzumaki-san, the council has demaned your presents at once." said Spider as he glared down at the demon vessal, only to take a step back as the flash of yellow from Zenaku's eyes flared.

"ANBU-san, Answer me this which council Requests my Presents?" Zenaku asked since he retained memories of Naruto when he had leared about some of the laws of Konoha.

"the Honorable Civilian Council, Now Do as they Command. you demon brat." said Spider as he continued to look down on the Reborn wolf duke.

giving a sigh, Zenaku turned around and slammed the door in their faces, but not before giving his peace. "I answer only to the SHINOBI council or the HOKAGE himself. remember that. civilians have no place in this village."

shocking the spider masked ninja, only for his shock to turn to embarrassment and anger, which was a caused by the two behind him snickering at him. "fucking demon spawn. i wish the hokage would just kill him already."

getting glares for the other two, which he did not notice. he was about to kick open the door only to be greeted with a long curved dark metal blade poking into his adam's apple with enough force to draw blood.

"i was getting dressed, you fool." said Zenaku as he withdrew his blade, and procceeded to walk past the ANBU. "Say Spider-san?"

"what is it brat?" Spider growled out.

"Do you have any back up line of work if you dont make it as a shinobi?" Zenaku asked innocently as he could, but since he was in a body of a 12 year old child, it did its job.

"No."

"thats too bad, looks like you out of a job, since you broke the third's law, not once, but twice, and i maybe only 12 years old. but wouldnt breaking a personal law agains the hokage be counted as a treasonous act, punishable by death by public live dissection?" asked Zenaku as he took notice of the sweat marks growing on around the neck of the Spider ANBU. "It would be such a shame that if the hokage got himself a hold of a video tape and voice recording, along with two witnesses. though what would you do to keep yourself and your family from being black listed in the village, i wounder?"

though he could not see behind him, Zenaku knew that the ANBU was shacking in anger at being blackmail by the demon child infront of him. that let a devious smirk grace the stonic face of zenaku's reborn form.

"what do you want, brat." came the hiss from the ANBU.

"Nothing. i just like to watch you squirm. it amuses me greatly." said Zenaku as he fingered a kunai in his hand.

"You little shit!" roared the ANBU as he lunged towards the boy with a Tanto drawn ready to cleave the boy in half, saddly it was not ment to be as the other two ANBU gaurds watch as they Watched Spider rush at the boy, only to see the boy fade infront of them to appear behind Spider with his back to him, cleaning a bloody Kunai in his hand in a lazy fashion. Spider stood rooted where he stood as deep bloody cuts appeard all over his body, all in lethal areas where major arteries were located. before he fell to his hands and knees coughing up blood that spilt from his throut. "bastard demon..."

"I grown tired of 'demon this, and demon that.' once i talk to the hokage, the villagers will wish they had honored the fourth's wish." said Zenaku as he coninued his path to the hokage's tower.

-Hokage's Office-

As Hurizen Sarutobi sat as his desk reading over the latest report on his surrogate grandson, Naruto Uzumaki. the 'leage' report stated that naruto when and killed off a group of civilians and low leveled shinobi, appearently this coming meeting was to see if naruto uzumaki was guilty, which the civilian council was so sure about facts that they actually called him to the meeting, that was going to start in the next hour.

hearing the doors swing open to see Naruto walking into the office, claimly. which was out of character, putting him on instain alert for two reasons.

One- Naruto was never this claim or silent.

Two- Naruto became extremly irritable when he does not get enough sleep.

but here Naruto was completely quite and collective, which ment either that this naruto was planning a prank to get back at all council members for waking him up this early in the morning or he was an imposter.

"Jiji, i will give you the count to five, to tell me. why i was awoken this damn early in the morning." said Zenaku as he looked at the old man.

relaxing a little at hearing, but still the look in naruto's eyes said so much more.

"Naruto-kun, the council has asked that you be punished for the Unjusted murder of several civilians and shinobi" Sarutobi said saddly.

"than we have nothing to worry about. since it was all justified since it was self-deffence and i did give them a warring to leave." said Zenaku as he looked at the man infront of him. "besides... is it not against the law for civilians to attack member of the shinobi forces, also is it not a treasonious act for a shinobi to attack a fellow shinobi with out just-cause? all of which is punishable by death?"

suprised by the boy's reasoning, he couldnt believe it. the boy had just quoted the Konohagakure laws and Regulation: Artical-19a and Artical-19b.

"my boy, how could you remember that, you were only 6 years old when you read those laws?" asked the hokage as he looked at the young man in suprise.

"i would have to remember the laws if i wish to be hokage someday, right oldman?" asked Zenaku, as some of his new/old lifes personality surfaced. "so what do you say?"

"I would say that the council will be very displeased." said the old man with a small smirk on his face. "also i must ask, why are you not training with your jonin sensei?"

"Kakashi-sensei has made it quite clear that he will be training the Uchiha heir, a waste if talent if you ask me." said Zenaku as he looked out the window. "If i were to guess, Kakashi's habbit of being late will play into Sasuke being late, unprofessional if you ask me, expecially if you are going up in rank, with imporant personal like nobles and daiymos, and if he cant make it on time, then it show he is not ready for being a chuunin."

"you have put a lot of thought into this havent you my boy?" said Sarutobi as he puffed on his pipe.

"not really, just stating the obivious." said zenaku as he turned to the hokage. "ah, before i forget, i would like to know if you have training grounds that are isolated from the public? for my training is going to be... devastating."

thinking over the boy's request he could only think of one training ground. "i believe my old training ground would be best, go to TG 66 is behind the Hokage Monument, i believe that should surfice for now."

getting up to leave to the council room, Zenaku couldnt help but give a small grin since the council was about to be disappointed.

-9:45am-

after a boring council meeting, all of which was just the civilian council 'asking' for Naruto to be punished for the 'unjust' deaths of 'honorible' civilians and shinobi. which he was very pleased to see all charges dropped since all evidence had shown that Naruto Uzumaki was just protecting himself.

but now zenaku found himself at TG-66, he was pleased it had a range of terrain, from rocky soil to forest grasslands, rivers to sand dunes, a multi-terrain training ground. perfect for what he was gonna train himself in.

"hehe" was the sound of a strange giggle that drew the attention of zenaku as he turned to face the dircetion of where it came from.

fallowing the sound he came across a white haired man crouching behind a bush and from what he could tell, he was peeping on the women who were enjoying themselfs in the lake at the end of the training ground.

now Zenaku/Naruto was many things; a villian, a demon, a warrior, ect. but the one thing he was not was a pervert.

glaring at the white haired man, Zenaku though he should educate the man on how to be a proper gentlemen.

"Spirit Release: Crescent Shadow Wave!" Zenaku roared as he swung his curved sword sending a wave of black energy at the ground benieth the white haired pervert.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" yelled the white haired man as he flew across the bushes that he was hiding behind only for a moment later to be beat shortly after landing.

-moment later-

as Zenaku when through his Katas in his kenjutsu, he realised right way that his new form, his new body was not strong enough compared to his old one. as he found that some of his more powerful attacks caused some strain on his small form.

but his attention was drawn to the disgruntel huffing of the white haired man he sent flying toward the girls to get the beating of a life time. (one of many i might add).

"can i help you, Mr...?" asked Zenaku lazily as he looked over to the white haired man that was dress in a green and red outfit.

"Kid..." said the man seriously as he took a pose, did a kobuki dance. "My name strikes fear in the hearts of men, woos women with a single glance, I am the Great Toad Sage, the wonderful, the mighty, for I AM!"

"a sad pathatic pervert with a small dick?" drawed out zenaku as he looked at the man with mocked pity.

"Jiraiya..." came the dead tone from the man infront of him, "Kid you know how to kill someones mood, dont you?"

"for a Pathatic Pervert like you... yes." said Zenaku as he looked over this... Jiraiya person.

"I am not a pathatic Pervert, I am a Super Pervert!" said the Man Proudly.

"Like i said before. Sad Pathatic Pervert with a small dick the size of a grain of Rice." said Zenaku as he took some pleasure seeing the man's ego fall into depression, letting his eyes flash yellow for just a momment. "I ask again, what do you need from me?"

"Kid, how would you like to be trained by one of the legendary Sennin?" the man offered with a grin.

"what can you offer, I mean really what can a pervert like you do?" asked the reborn wolf duke as he crossed his arms.

"listen brat, i trained one of the greatest Ninjas in the world. I trained Minato Namikaze the Fourth Hokage." said the man as he puffed out his chest with pride.

"and Look where that got him, Six feet under, and causing me to live a life of being an outcast; to be beaten on my brithdays, to be sold rotten food at three maybe four times the normal price, having doctors and nurses giving piss poor medical care, living on nothing but a few ryos a month if not for the fact that that i did those pathatic D-rank missions i would be living on the streets." said Zenaku as he struggled to keep his cool demeaner. "some fucking father that is."

shocked by what he heared Jiraiya could not believe that the boy infront of him was the Kyubi demon vessal.

"h-how did you know, Sensei told me-"

"Please, anyone who has half a brain and took thier heads out of their asses and looked at a picture of the fucker and myself they would see that we look the same save for the whisker marks." stated Zenaku as he took a seat on one of the large stones that laid across the landscape. "so i ask once again what can you teach me?"

smirking at the boy, Jiraiya held his hand out, and slowly started to form a glowing blue ball of chakra.

"are we gonna play catch?" came the sarcastic remark from zenaku as he looked unimpressed.

grinning like a madman jiraiya rammed the hand that held the glowing blue ball into a near by tree, to which a second later was now sporting a large indented hole like a round drill was grinding the wood away.

"Not bad... for close range combat but what about mid to long range combat?" asked Zenaku as he understood the power behind the attack, but if it can not be used in other forms of combat, well you are better off being a sitting duck against a long range specialist.

"well... aaahh... you see."

"thought so, i am an all range combat fighter, if i can't fight them in close quatars, i have to take them out long range. from what i can see, i would be wasting my time with you." said Zenaku as he turned to leave.

"hey kid how about a summoning contract?" came the somewhat desperat offer from the toad sage.

"Toads? dont you have one for say wolves? Alligators? or Sharks?" asked Zenaku feeling he wanted his old Zords back but seeing i might not be the case here.

"listen Kid, Toads are one of THE strongest summonings that anyone can have."

"how so, because if anything i think a summoning contract with the Biju would be better. but even still i have something better then some pathatic summoning animal."

"Oh yeah? how about a bet?"

"sure, why not. Name the stakes."

"My summons versus what ever you have. If i win you become my Pupil, if you win name your price."

"fine I win you teach me that glowing blue ball thing, with out having me sign that summoning contract. and it will be a three on three battle for our summoning partners. agreed?" seeing the old sage look at him for a momment trying to see if he could win but seeing that this kid didnt have a summoning contract of his own, from what he could tell. giving a nod in agreement. "alright lets start this show."

-insert Zenaku's Summoning flute theme-

after a moment of silence after the song jiraiya could only laugh as he bit his thumb and did a few hand seals fallowed by him yelling out.

"KUCHIYOSE NO JUTSU!" with three large poof of smoke three large toads; one was red with a blue vest and a scar across his eye and a pipe, the next had pinkish color to him with a large Sake dish on his back with a two prong fork with spikes on it, the last was a greenish blue toad with two swords on it's back. "give up kid, you dont stand a chance."

giving a growl, Zenaku brought his dagger flute up to his lips again this thing playing louder the song of summoning, this time how ever, something started to happen. the winds started to blow stronger and a faint sound of singing and a flute was being played in the distance, the next thing Zenaku knew he found himself in shrouded in a rainbow mist before he was spirited away from the training ground.

-Unknown location-

Zenaku found himself in a formiliar forest, one he visited long ago. feeling the slight breaze against his tan skin, closing his eyes enjoying the feeling of being at peace.

"it has been a long while, since you were here... Brother." said a male voice behind him.

turning to face the speaker, Zenaku gave a small smile. "that it has. Brother..."
