Ok everybody here is chapter 6. Now this one is long and covers a bit. It starts 2 years after Naruto left Leaf and Arrived in Whirlpool. Now There is a ton of Action in this Chapter and Naruto starts to show off just how bad ass he is and will continue to become in the future. Also in this chapter I introduce the world to the Alpha Dire Wolf so that's something. Also this is my longest chapter yet, 200 words more then chapter 2 so yay for me. Oh and I'm putting a Poll up on my Profile page about rather or not to add Izumi to the relationship. Without further ado enjoy.

I do not own Naruto, Kishimoto does, if I owned Naruto I'd be mega rich and would have killed off Sasuke during the wave mission.

Chapter 6: Saving Nawaki, Uzu Invasion, Returning Home!"

Last Time

He decides its time to get going, "Well this is it. Goodbye everyone I'll see you all in 3 years, maybe even sooner depending on how long my training takes. Sarutobi remember if the war starts to get to bad don't hesitate to call me back into service." The Hokage nods at this, and with one last wave at them all he turns and runs out of the gate, hopping up into the trees and disappearing. No one standing there could ever imagine that He would return as a certified S-Rank Shinobi and the savior of an entire Village and Nation, as well as begin to send major ripples through the world.


Now

Hidden Whirlpool Village(Uzushiogakure)

Land of Whirlpools(Uzu no Kuni)

2 years Later

Naruto Age: 17

Its been 2 years since Naruto left the Leaf village to come to the land of his clan and learn from them. After leaving the Leaf it took him 4 days traveling at top speed to get to the Port town on the Eastern Coast of the Land of Fire. When he arrived he decided to get a hotel room so he could get a shower then head out to find his escort to Hidden Whirlpool as they were supposed to already be there. After getting showered and shaved he used his sensor abilities to locate the largest Chakra Signature in the village that wasn't his as Uzumaki tend to have large chakra reserves, and he found one that was slightly above Jonin level and very powerful near the docks.

So he got dressed and headed out to the docks, where he found a ship with sails that had the Uzumaki swirl on them and met his escort, a man with long light red-hair and violet eyes, average height standing at 5'7 but with the aura of a powerful Shinobi, His name was Kenshin Uzumaki. After introducing himself to the man and confirming that he is Naruto Uzumaki, Kenshin told him that they would be leaving to go to the village early the next morning and told him to get a good nights rest tonight because sleeping at sea isn't easy.

The next day they set off and it took 3 days to reach the whirlpools that protect the village, when they did they stopped the ship while Kenshin went to the bow and went through some hand seals which he watched very carefully. A moment later the two whirlpools in front of them slowed and then stopped completely and they mad their way through, as soon as they were far enough in he went to the stern and went through some more hand seals and the whirlpools came back into existence just as deadly and fast as before.

However what really got his attention after that was the Hidden Whirlpool Village itself, as when they came to it all he could do was stare in wonder. The Hidden Whirlpool Village is a village composed of several high-rise buildings made of what looks to be granite or cement. A wide river runs through the village and is gaped by large bridges made of the same materials as the buildings. The surrounding countryside is dominated by steep hills, and all in all it looks like it could go toe to toe with any of the Major Shinobi Villages.

When they pulled into port he could see what looked like the entire village gathered together to greet them, and he wasn't far off. As soon as he stepped off the ship he was greeted by a man standing at around 6', with a solid build, red-hair the same shade as his own, and blue eyes. His attire consisted of a white robe with light blue accents, and a hat with the symbol for Whirlpool on the brim, this man is the 3rd and Current Uzukage as well as Head of the Uzumaki clan, Yushiro Uzumaki.

Yushiro greeted his fellow Uzumaki with a hug, welcoming him home, and everyone present followed his lead, greeting their long lost family member with cheers and happy tidings. The man then introduced Naruto to his family, His wife Kunika who is a beautiful woman with a slender build and good sized bust, and their at the time 1 year old daughter Kushina, who shares her mothers lighter red hair color. Seeing the baby that in the future would be his mother reminded him that his future father was born last year and is probably right now in one of the orphanages in the Leaf, so he made a promise to himself that when he returned to the Leaf he'd find Minato Namikaze and adopt him so he wouldn't grow up an orphan.

After his mass greeting, Yushiro lead him through the village, showing him where all the major stores, restaurants, and even training grounds were at. He explained some of the history of their clan and the building of Whirlpool, telling him that every single building and training ground in the village was strengthened by seals known only to their clan. Sometime during the tour of the village Kunika asked him about his love life, to which he replied he already had a girlfriend in the Leaf who was awaiting his return. When he told them her name it caused Yushiro to laugh and reply with, "History repeats itself. The Uzumaki and Senju clans' bond being re-strengthened by the Union of an Uzumaki and the Senju Heiress."

After a good laugh at his slight embarrassment the subject was dropped and he was lead to where he would be staying for the next 3 years. It surprised him to find out that he'd be living with Yushiro and his family in the Uzukage Mansion/Main House. the Uzukage just told him they had more then enough room to accommodate him, plus it would make it easier for himself to teach the young man all the clan's techniques, especially their Fuinjutsu. He thanked the man and his wife for their Hospitality, and after settling in to the room they provided him, which was a bit bigger then his room at the Senju house, he joined the family for a giant feast in honor of his arrival.

That first night in Whirlpool was one he would never forget, as the feeling of family washed over him and he was easily accepted by every single member of the Main Uzumaki House. In fact Kenshin who as it turned out happened to be Yushiro's younger brother, commented after seeing how much he could eat, "Your without a doubt a member of this family. Only an Uzumaki can eat enough food to feed a squad of 4 for a month." This caused everyone to laugh and agree with him, even Naruto Himself. That was when he knew he was accepted by his clan. But it became more apparent when his training began the next day.

From the very start of his training under the Uzumaki clan, he showed why he was considered to be a genius and prodigy in the Leaf. Easily soaking up everything taught to him, including the full history of their clan and the Whirlpool, he especially loved how the clan could trace their lineage back to the old Six Paths Sage, though none of them knew his name. Some of the more physical things he learned were the Uzumaki Taijutsu style which is called Whirlpool Fist(Uzu Ken), as well as the main family Kenjutsu Style Shigure Soen-Ryu(Shower in Late Autumn, Blue Swallow Style), which is passed down from one man to another, in this case the current master of it is Kenshin who has taught it to him.

There are of course other branches of the style but the main one is the strongest as only 2 people at any one time know it, and each successor creates new techniques to add to it thus increasing its power and strength. When it comes to Ninjutsu he's been learning all of the Uzumaki Clan's secret Water and Wind Release Jutsu. Fuinjutsu is where he's shined most, as Yushiro gave him a test to confirm he was a level 15 Master and then began to teach him the Uzumaki Style of Fuinjutsu, which has been harder then all the seals he's learned before but he's managed to grasp them and excel.

When not training with Yushiro or Kenshin, or their sister the Water Mistress Kimiko, Naruto has continued his training with Ice and Wood Release. A year into his stay in Whirlpool he finally managed to get passed his block on Wood Release and figure out the perfect ratio of Water to Earth chakra to create enormous forests just like the 1st Hokage. Of course unknown to him Yushiro had been watching his Bloodline training and after seeing him finally manage to get Wood Release correct sent off a letter to Mito for all scrolls written by Hashirama on his Techniques for Wood Release.

A week later he was surprised to be called into the Uzukage's office, and even more surprised to receive 2 scrolls full of Wood Release Jutsu thanks to Mito. He thanked the man for the scrolls, but he waved him off and then handed him another scroll which was full of Ice Release Jutsu, and when asked about it replied, "There have been members of the clan throughout our long history that have had certain elemental bloodlines, Ice happens to be one." With that he told him to get back to his training which he happily did.

His time in the Whirlpool hasn't been all training, he's also gotten to know the people of the village, those who are Uzumaki and those who aren't. He's also kept in contact with his friends and loved ones in Leaf by sending Dire Wolf Summons with letters back home and then bring back their replies. Thanks to this he knows how the war is going and knows that the Sand Village has joined in on it, and that Tsunade has become the bane of the famous Lady Chiyo of the puppet brigade because she's been curing all the older woman's poisons.

He's also heard how Sakumo has been making a name for himself, having gained the moniker 'The Leaf's White Fang(Konoha no Shiroi Kiba)' For his Kenjutsu skills as well as his Chakra Sabre. While Izumi has become known as "The Leaf's Illusion Blade Goddess(Konoha no Genso Katana Megami)' For her mastery of Genjutsu and the use of of her dual Kodachi, which she uses in conjunction with each other, ensnaring her enemies in powerful illusions long enough to deal killing blows with her blades.

He's also been kept abreast about how things are going in the Leaf itself, reading that Danzo and his wife have had a second child, this time a boy, despite the man now being the ANBU Commander. Also he and Tsunade have written back and forth re-affirming their love for one another, although he had a slight tinge of jealousy when he found out how several men had asked her out since he left, but was happy to hear she turned them all down. Recently he received a letter from her informing him that Nawaki Graduated the Academy and was placed on a team with Orochimaru as his Sensei. She even included two photos, one of Orochimaru with the boy and his other two students, and another of Nawaki, Mito, and herself on his graduation day.


Today he's once again training with Kenshin in Kenjutsu, however instead of learning more of the Shigure Soen-Ryu, the man asked him to use his original sword style against him as he wanted to test the two styles against each other. So that's exactly what he's doing, and as the two cross swords he can't help but to think about how yesterday was Nawaki's 12th birthday and how the boy is probably out on a battlefield instead of celebrating with his family. As he's thinking this he parries a stab from his fellow red-head then hops back to get some distance and prepare his next strike, however before he can make a move he feels a pulse from one of his Hiraishin Kunai.

His mind works at a mile a microsecond, and he realizes that the Mark he's sensing is from the Kunai he gave to Tsunade, and realizing that it means she must be in trouble he sheaths his sword surprising Kenshin, however before the man can ask him whats the matter he sees him disappear in a flash of red. Everyone inside seeing the red flash comes outside to see what's going on as they've all seen the teen practicing his teleportation technique. Yushiro seeing the confused look on his brothers face asks, "Kenshin-kun, whats going on? Why did Naruto-kun suddenly flash away?"

The younger man shakes his head, "I don't know Onii-Sama. One second we're sparing with our blades and he's preparing his next strike, then the next second he's gone."

Kimiko who is a sensor closes her eyes looking for the 17 year old's chakra signature, but doesn't find it, "His chakra signature is no longer in the village. That mean's he's flashed back to the mainland."

Kunika looks at her husband in worry and asks, "Do you think this has something to do with his girlfriend Yu-Koi?"

The Clan head nods his head, "Yes, it's possible she's in trouble and summoned him to help her, we'll just have to wait for him to flash back to the Kunai in his room to find out." With that they all nod and head back inside to wait.


Somewhere between Land of Grass and Land of Rock

Naruto appears in a lightly forested area with many outcroppings of rocks and high grass and within a second looks around and doesn't find Tsunade however he does find Nawaki, and sees the predicament the boy is in, as it seems he triggered an explosive trap. So acting quickly he jumps into the heart of the explosion, grabs the 12 year old in a hug and then flashes back to the Kunai he arrived at. The boom from the explosion echo's throughout the area, and he can feel the heat from it on his back, however it dies down soon enough.

He sets the frightened 12 year old on the ground and rubs his head, "It's okay to open your eyes now Waki-chan, your safe." The boy hearing the familiar voice opens his eyes slowly and looks up at his savior and looks him over, as tears start to form in the corners of his eyes, "Naruto-Onii-san?" The man nods his head, and the boy lunges at his chest despite the pain he feels in his left knee, "Naruto-Onii-san! Onee-chan was right! You did come to save me! Thank you Onii-san!"

The red-head chuckles at this, even though he senses a group of enemy Shinobi incoming, "That's right Kiddo, you threw the Kunai and I came. But right now isn't the time for our tearful reunion, that trap you set off signaled enemy Shinobi and they're on their way. From the looks of it your leg is banged up pretty good, probably from the force of the initial Exploding Tag, so you need to hide and I'll take care of the bad guys until your team gets here." The brown haired boy nods his head as Naruto makes a shadow clone to pick him up gently and hide him in some bushes.

A moment after the clone dispels a group of Rock Shinobi surround the red-head, and he counts 10 of them. The apparent leader seeing the teens features smirks as he recognizes him, The man steps forward a little and speaks, "Well well boys and girls, looks like we got ourselves a treat here. If it isn't Naruto Uzumaki, the A-rank Jonin of the Leaf. You know alot of us been wondering where you been brat. You ain't been seen on any of the battlefields, not even the ones with your teammates present, we all figured you'd got scared and hid away." Naruto however just cocks an eyebrow at this, which pisses the man off.

The shorter but stockier man scowls at this, "I'm not gonna bother asking how you escaped the trap, your cobalt sand is pretty famous. I'll give you a choice, surrender to us and be taken for interrogation, or fight and die, make your choice boy." The red-head scoffs at this as he takes his Taijutsu stance, making all 10 of them laugh as one woman speaks up, "So you think you can take all 10 of us at once? What arrogance! Half of us are Jonin and the other Half are Chunin. Even if you are A-Rank you can't take us all fool!"

However a moment later he vanishes from their sight then reappears in front of the woman who just spoke as he hits her multiple times before she can or her comrades can respond and then when he's done he turns around and walks away from her while calmly stating, "Hokuto Shin-Ken: Dan Kotsukin!(Cutting Bone and Tendon)" A moment later all the muscles on her body begin to bulge before exploding in a shower of gore, killing her. All this is done while he has a blank face, and causes them all to become slightly frightened.

The head Jonin however grits his teeth, "You little bastard you'll pay for that! Get him!" At this order all the others proceed to go through hand Seals or take out Kunai and Shuriken to toss at him. As they unleash their attacks upon him it seems as if he's been struck, as there's a huge BOOM and Shock Wave from the force of the earth techniques hitting. However when the dust and smoke clears they see a ball of silver colored sand hovering over the crater that they created.

The Cobalt Sand recedes to reveal a completely unharmed Naruto. The red-head makes three hand seals as his Cobalt Sand rises high in the air seeming to become greater in volume and he intones, "Magnet Release: Cobalt Waterfall!(Jiton: Kobaruto Taki)" As he makes a motion with his hand and the huge wave of metal sand descends upon them. The leader as well as the other 3 remaining Jonin and one Chunin manage to dodge it by jumping up high in to the trees but the remaining 4 Chunin aren't so lucky and are swallowed up by it. He then goes through 2 more hand seals and slams his hands on the Cobalt at his feet, "Magnet Release: Cobalt Imperial Funeral!(Jiton: Kobaruto Koshitsu no Sogi)" As a ripple goes out over the sand and crushes all 5 of the Shinobi buried within.

He then retracts the sand and seals it away back in one of the seals he has on his back to store his three sands. He looks up at the 4 Jonin and 1 Chunin who are in shock and speaks, "You know normally I'm a very laid back man. In any other situation I would have allowed you to leave with your lives, but your boasting just pissed me off. So here's what I'll do for you, I'll cut you up into little pieces and then send your pieces back to your families." With that he speeds through more hand seals faster then they can see and intones, "Water Release: Rain Maker Jutsu!(Suiton: Ame Meka no Jutsu) As he releases Water Nature Chakra from his body into the atmosphere, and storm clouds very quickly roll in and it begins to down pour.

As soon as it begins to rain he draws his sword and vanishes from sight, appearing in front of the first of the Jonin, a tall man about 4 inches taller then himself at 6'4, and heavily muscled. He rushes him with his sword held in both hands as he releases a blast of water from the blade, then he follows after it and he thrusts forward while saying, "Shigure Soen-Ryu: Shajiku no Ame!(Axle of Rain)" As he stabs him through the heart killing him. He removes his blade from the first man just in time to use another technique to block an incoming attack from the second man.

He points his sword downwards towards the ground held in only his right hand, and as the second man is coming at him from above he spins around to the right on the balls of his feet and swings the sword up to it highest point which causes it to bring up a wave of water that protects him from the Rock Shinobi's Kunai as he says, "Shigure Soen-Ryu: Sakamaku Ame!(Rolling Rain)" This causes the man to be sent flying back un balanced, So he takes the opportunity, he drops his Katana and kicks the hilt of it propelling it forwards at the unbalanced man as he calls out, "Shigure Soen-Ryu: Yarazu no Ame!(Last Minute Rain)" As it pierces his armor and straight through his stomach.

Then he goes through hand seals and calls out, "Ice Release: Ice Dragon Jutsu!(Hyoton: Koriryu no Jutsu)" As the water from the rain comes together to form a large dragon which then freezes over into white ice, and lunges at the third man who barely has time to scream before he's turned into a bloody ice sculpture. Then he calmly walks over to man number 2 and removes his sword, swiping the blood off of it, and as he does so the remaining Chunin looks to her leader, "He's a Demon! We cant beat him Daiske lets get the hell out of here!" The lead Jonin gulps at how one man just took out 8 of them withing a 5 minute period like they were nothing.

Daiske then shakes his head, "We can't do that Kanna. If we turn tail and run then the Tsuchikage will execute us for cowardice. We have to fight until our last breath. Lets attack him together." She nod's reluctantly, however before they can do anything they hear him call out, "Bringer-of-Darkness Jutsu!(Kokuangyo no Jutsu)" Suddenly their world goes completely dark, so much so they can't even see their hands in front of their faces, and they don't know it but it spells their ends.

The red-head after casting the darkness Genjutsu on the final two Rock Shinobi casually sheaths his sword, takes out two Kunai and tosses them at each one. He hits his mark as the Kunai embed themselves in their throats finishing them off, he then goes over to the bush and gets Nawaki out as the boy looks on in wonder, "Wow Onii-san your really strong. You took out all 10 of those guys and didn't even break a sweat."

He shakes his head at the 12 year old, "It was nothing Nawaki-kun. I'm sure that Orochimaru or your sister could do similar. Speaking of which I sense old Pale-skin coming this way so I gotta go."

The brown-haired boy frowns at that, "But why Onii-san? Why can't you stay and come back to the village with us?"

Naruto smiles gently at him and rubs his head, "My training with the Uzumaki Clan isn't complete yet. Until it is I can't return home, but tell you what if you want to tell Orochimaru, Tsu-chan, Ero-Jiraiya, Sakumo, Izumi, Danzo-Sensei, Koharu-nee, Hiruzen-Nii, and Mito-Obachan that I saved you go ahead. But no one else can know okay?" The boy nods reluctantly at this as the red-head hands him back the Kunai he used to summon him, gives him one last smile and the steps back and disappears in another red flash.

A moment later Orochimaru and his other two teammates appear near him, with the pale skinned man kneeling in front of him, "Nawaki-kun are you ok? I told you not to rush off ahead of us."

The boy looks down in shame and replies, "Sorry Orochimaru-sensei, I got to excited. I'm okay except my knee hurts really bad, I think that explosion trap made me hit a tree branch to hard and busted it up. What took you guys so long?"

The black-haired man sighs in relief and then answers his question, "We were attacked by a group of Sand-Nin. It took us awhile to defeat them but we managed. I'm glad your okay."

Jut then he hears his female student, a blue haired girl, call out, "Orochimaru-sensei you should see this." He turns towards the direction of his other two students and his eyes widen when he see's the bodies of the 10 Rock Shinobi, he takes in the mangled corpses of 4 of them, the stab wounds to two of them, the frozen remains of one, and the slit throats of the last two, however it's when he sees the exploded corpse of the first woman that was killed that he knows what technique was used to kill her and by whom.

He turns back to his Senju student and asks, "Nawaki-kun what happened here? Who killed these Rock Shinobi?"The brown haired boy smiles and motions for him to come closer which he does and the boy whispers in his ear, "Naruto-Onii-san." Orochimaru's eyes widen at this but he nods his head, now having his theory proven, so he picks the boy up gently and turns to his other students, "Lets get back to the Leaf, Nawaki-kun needs immediate medical attention for his knee." He makes one handed seals and creates a Mud Clone with orders to burn the bodies and then dispel and the 4 hop off into the trees back to the leaf.


Whirlpool Village

6 months later

Its been 6 months since Naruto flashed into a explosive trap and saved the life of Nawaki. After he reappeared in his room and got cleaned up he went downstairs to explain his disappearance to Yushiro and the family and they understood and were happy that he saved his in their words future brother-in-law. After that he was made to take the rest of the day off training and just played Shogi and Go with Yushiro and Kenshin respectively. Then a few days later a letter arrived to him from Tsunade, in it she thanked him for saving her baby brother and said when next she saw him she'd be giving him a special gift.

She also wrote that as a result of the initial shock wave from the explosion starting, that Nawaki's knee was completely shattered, so much so that not even she could heal it. However he was going to be getting an artificial kneecap and would continue to walk, but his career as a Shinobi was shot, as he wouldn't be able to do any kind of intensive training or missions, and therefor so was his dream of becoming Hokage. Funnily enough when he was informed about this the boy took it well and said that he was just grateful to be alive. Naruto just smiled at the 12 year old's optimism and wrote back that he can't wait to see her again and that he's happy he could help Nawaki.

Over the last 6 Months the red-head has really thrown himself into his training, seeing his inability to keep Nawaki from any kind of harm as a flaw in his Hiraishin and so worked to improve the seals and the speed of his warps. Also he's poured his all into learning every single secret Uzumaki Secret technique, and perfecting them. On top of that he's worked his ass off learning and mastering the Wood and Ice Release techniques from the scrolls he received.

4 Months ago Naruto was given permission from Yushiro as well as the Alpha of the Dire Wolves to sign a second Summoning Contract, with the Summon Clan of the Uzumaki, The Elemental Dragons. A month after signing the Dragon contract and passing the Dragon King's test, he was reverse summoned to the Dire Wolf Dens and offered to learn Senjutsu under them and become the first Dire Wolf Sage, which he accepted, and spent the whole month at the Dens learning to gather natural energy on the go and managed to achieve Sage Mode. Now when he enters Wolf Sage Mode(Okami Sennin Modo) his eyes gain red eye shadow, they turn gold and his pupils turn into slits, his teeth and nails sharpen slightly and his appearance becomes more feral and wild.

2 months ago Naruto finally perfected his own Version of Hiraishin which allows him to warp much faster and much greater distances then even Minato's version. On top of that last month with the help of Uzumaki Seal Formulas he managed to create a mass transit version of it meant to transport large groups from one place to another. To test it he applied the mass transportation seal to the massive basement of the Uzukage Tower and then sent the opposite seal over to the leaf via Dire Wolf with a request to have Mito apply it and have it applied in the Hokage Tower. When he got the confirmation that Mito had applied the opposite seal he decided to test it with a group of his clones.

He made 15 Shadow clones and had them stand on the seal, which when activated by his chakra flashed them away. A few minutes later the clones dispelled and he got the knowledge that it worked. Once they knew that the seals worked Tsunade wanted to teleport over to Whirlpool right away, something which he shot down and told her that the seals were to be used in case of an emergency to transport all the Civilians of Whirlpool and the children to Leaf until the emergency has passed. None of them knew it at the time but such an emergency would come up within the month.


Today is like any other day in the Whirlpool, sun shining, a nice breeze coming in from the sea, and everyone going about their business. Naruto is on the porch of the main house playing with Yushiro's now nearly 3 year old daughter Kushina. Naruto has grown a little bit since he saved Nawaki, 6months ago he stood at 6'0, now at nearly 18 he stands 6'1 with a swimmers build, made for speed, but with explosive power behind his arms. He's also allowed his hair to grow out again but even more then before, it now resembles Minato's hair, but the back is longer much like Jiraiya's hair and he keeps it tied in a spikey pony-tail at the back of his neck much like his friend Sakumo does.

Little Kushina Uzumaki is little bundle of energy, always running around and getting into things. She stands at 2 feet tall, and is chubby as most 3 year olds are, her red hair is down to her shoulder blades and just as beautiful as he remembers it being when she's an adult. Right now he's tickling the little girl without mercy while her parents watch from the side with smiles on their faces as Kunika turns to her husband, "He's really good with her don't you think?" The man nods his head at her, "That he is. He seems to have a way with children as even the kids in the village look up to him and call him 'Aniki'." She smiles brightly at this.

However before she can say anymore a Whirlpool Jonin appears kneeling in front of them with a look of panic on his face, "Uzukage-Sama I bring bad news." Hearing this Naruto stops playing with Kushina who frowns at that, however Yushiro gets a serious look on his face and asks, "What is the situation?" The Jonin taking that as his cue replies, "The Whirlpools have been breached and a large force of ships is heading straight for us." At this Naruto interjects and asks, "Have the enemy been confirmed?" The Jonin looks at him like he's stupid then looks back at his leader who nods his head telling him to answer the young man, "There are at least 600 Ships and 200 of each are flying the flags of Rock, Cloud, and Mist."

Yushiro clicks his tongue at this, "Damn, It looks like even in the midst of war the Great Nations band together to attack a nation they deem lesser then them." Naruto shakes his head at this and speaks again, "Actually I think it's more likely they've entered into a temporary alliance to destroy Whirlpool in an effort to get rid of the Leaf's greatest Allies." The Uzukage nods his head at this and turns back to the Jonin and asks, "How long until they make landfall?" The man bows his head and replies, "About 2 hours Uzukage-Sama. What are you're orders?"

The man stands to his full height and says, "Send out the word to all forces, tell them to assemble and prepare for battle. I want one company to gather all the Civilians, the children, the elderly, and any sick or injured and get them to the Teleportation seal in the Uzukage Tower and send them to the Leaf for safety, make sure one Jonin goes along with them to inform the Hokage of the situation." The man replies with a "Yes Uzukage-Sama!" Then Naruto takes over, "Make sure the group in charge of the civilians knows that the seal can only teleport 200 people at a time, anymore then that and the seal will become unstable and blow up." The Jonin takes that in with a serious nod and then vanishes to do as he was told.

Naruto walks inside the house and starts to head for his room, when he does Yushiro asks him, "What are you doing Naruto?" The young man looks at him and answers back, "I'm getting geared up for battle, and don't tell me I can't or Shouldn't. This village is my second home, and this clan is my Family and I will do everything in my power to protect it!" The conviction in his voice makes the older man take a step back, but he nods his head, "Very well then suit up. If we die tonight then It will be my honor to die fighting side by side with a fellow Uzumaki like you Naruto-kun." Naruto smiles at him and heads up to his bedroom, while Yushiro takes Kunika and Kushina to gather a few things and then take them to the Uzukage Tower.


Outside Whirlpool Village Gates

1 hour 30 minutes later.

Over an hour later things have been prepared for the coming battle, standing all around the outer gate is the entire Whirlpool Shinobi Force which counts about 5,000 strong. At the head of this force are without a doubt the 3 most powerful men in the Uzumaki Clan, The 3rd Uzukage Yushiro Uzumaki, The Swordsman of Bloody Rain(Kenkaku no Buraddi Ame) Kenshin Uzumaki, and The Wolf Sage Naruto Uzumaki. Behind them unseen to the naked eye is a barrier surrounding the village, one designed not to allow anyone inside until the three men standing at the front of the army are dead, as it is tied to all one of their chakra signatures.

Inside the village the evacuation is still going on, at last count 70% of the non combatants have been Teleported to the Leaf where Sarutobi has been told of the situation and has replied that he's sending back up and to hold out until they are able to transport over. As the men and women of the Shinobi Force stands and waits for the 600 ships to land and let loose their forces, they notice 6 Shinobi heading their way at high speed from the ocean.

As they get closer they notice that these 6 are cloaked in chakra shrouds and realize what these 6 are as one man screams out, "Jinchuriki! They Sent Jinchuriki!" Everyone gets fearful at this, however Naruto rushes forward to meet the 6 Jinchuriki ignoring Yushiro's scream of, "Naruto Get back here! You Cant take them alone!" As he runs he enters sage mode, he then creates 5 clones and they all go through the same hands seals as they each rush one Jinchuriki a piece at top speed. As they reach the 6 Shinobi they call out, "Hokage-Style Sixty-Year-Old Technique: Enclosed Hermitage Entering Society With Bliss-Bringing Hands!(Hokage-Shiki Juinjutsu: Kakuan Nitten Suishu)"

As soon as they finish saying this 10 pillars of wood appear all around each Jinchuriki taking them by surprise allowing all 6 Naruto's to touch them and then hop back leaving a trail of chakra connecting them to the 6 Jinchuriki, then all six say at the same time, "SIT!" As the Kanji for the word sit appears on their right hands and as soon as it does all 6 Jinchuriki find the chakra of their Tailed-Beasts receding and disappearing as the pillars suck away the demonic chakra. It leaves them feeling weak and confused as when they try to call the chakra back they can't, however they don't have much time to dwell on it as each of them is suddenly knocked out by the red-head and his clones.

All the Naruto's then take out storage scrolls that have stasis seals on them and seal the 6 men and women into the scrolls putting them into status to be killed, ransomed off or just released later on. After he gets the 5 scrolls from his clones they all poof away and he flashes back next to Yushiro, who looks at him with respect and pride. However Naruto surprises him more when he asks, "Uzukage-Sama if you wouldn't mind. Would it be possible for you and everyone else here to hold back after the enemy lands? There's something I've been wanting to test for awhile now and haven't had the chance and now seems as good a time as any."

Yushiro looks at him like he's crazy, "Absolutely not! No one man can take on thousands alone. I don't know what your planning but it's not worth throwing your life away." The younger red-head shakes his head at this, "I'm not going to throw my life away Yushiro-Ojisan. If it makes you feel better you and the others can be a part of it." he takes out a scroll and tosses it to the nearest Battalion leader, "See that every man and woman here gets at least 2 of whats in that scroll." The man in question looks at him questioningly and then looks to the Uzukage for permission.

The older red-head looks confused, "Naruto-Kun whats in that scroll?" Naruto smirk as this, "In that scroll I've sealed thousands of my Hiraishin Kunai. I want every person In this army to toss them into the enemy forces as soon as they move to attack. It doesn't matter if they hit anyone or not its not going to interfere with my plan." Hearing that the man nods his head to the Jonin and the man proceeds to hand out all the Tri-pronged Kunai to the entire force.

20 minutes later the 600 enemy ships land, their fronts open and hundreds of Shinobi pour out, forming into battalions of 500 a piece, moving into nice straight lines and remaining with their own comrades. Then after they're gathered together the leaders of each battalion gives the command to attack and they begin to move forward, first walking, then breaking out into a run. As they get 1000 feet away Yushiro gives the order for his men and women to toss to the Kunai, which the do, unleashing a rain of 10,000 Tri-pronged Kunai down upon the 60,000 enemy Shinobi.

Some of the weapons manage to hit a good deal of them in vital spots, killing them, however most of the rock Shinobi summon rock walls to block the weapons, while the Mist Shinobi summon up walls of water to protect themselves, while the cloud Shinobi dodge or block with their own Kunai or swords. When its over there are thousands of Tri-pronged Kunai scattered all around them, and about 1000 of each of their forces has been killed by the weapons, making 3000 Shinobi dead by the rain of Kunai. They bring down their defenses and begin to march forward again.

Naruto smirks at this, Salutes his comrades and vanishes in a flash of red. A moment later there's another flash of red in the middle of the battlefield and an entire battalion of Mist Shinobi fall down dead, slashed to death and all anyone sees is a third flash of red before a 4th appears and an entire of Battalion of Rock Shinobi are run through with spikes of Ice. Then with another flash 2 battalions of Cloud Shinobi are killed via Boiling Mist, after that it's utter chaos, as flashes of red appear all over the battlefield and one battalion after another is killed. By the time everyone gets their wits back 20 minutes later and think to erect defenses again, over 10,000 of them have been killed making 20 battalions decimated.

When they see another flash of red they look towards the source and find one Uzumaki standing there with his sword held over his shoulder with the look of a predator on his feral face. All the Uzumaki Shinobi can only stare in awe at the young man's prowess with his teleportation Jutsu. However what he does next shocks not only his fellow Uzumaki, but also all the enemy Shinobi, as well as putting the fear of Kami into them.

He sheaths his sword and goes through 3 hand seals, ending with the Snake seal as he claps his hands together and intones, "Sage Art:Wood Release Secret Technique: Nativity of A World of Trees!(Senpo: Mokuton Hijutsu: Jukai Kotan)" As soon as he calls it out, tree roots begin to shoot out of the ground, quickly turning into enormous trees, with a thought he directs the roots and branches of the trees to attack the enemy Shinobi. Many attempt to dodge or erect defenses but the branches prove to strong and fast as they're impaled, and half the coast is covered in dense forest within moments. The down side is that a quarter of their remaining forces are killed, impaled on tree branches or smothered by roots.

After he ends the Jutsu his Sage Markings fade away, having used up the Natural Chakra he gathered with that technique and still running on full with his own Chakra, which at this point is now nearly equal to Sarutobi's current chakra levels. He rolls up his sleeve revealing a tattoo of a Dire Wolf, and he smirks as he cuts his finger and runs I over the tattoo and comments, "Time to run Wild Ryoshu!" Then he slams his right hand on the ground and calls out "Summoning Jutsu!" As a huge puff of smoke envelops him, and a moment later everyone hears a loud "HOWWWWLLLL!" Then the smoke clears to reveal the red-head standing on top the head of a gigantic wolf.

The wolf in question stands at at 60 feet tall, is covered in dark black fur, with large teeth and slitted red eyes. This is the boss of the Dire Wolves, the Alpha of the pack, Ryoshu, who also happens to be the largest Dire Wolf and the strongest. Getting a whiff of the blood and death in the air the great wolf gives a predatory smile which looks damn scary on his muzzle as he looks up at his head, "Involved in a battle eh Naruto? From the looks of it you've already taken care of more almost half of their number." The red head chuckles at this, "Yeah well it wasn't easy, I used up all my Nature Chakra to do that Wood Release Jutsu. Now I figured since there only a few left that I'd summon you and let you have a little fun Ryoshu."

The Alpha wolf chuckles at this and responds, "I suppose I could do with a snack. Now lets go wild!" With that he lunges at the remaining enemy Shinobi, crushing many under his paws while snatching up a dozen in his mouth and eating them. The carnage the Dire Wolf Unleashes is unlike anything the Uzumaki clan has ever seen, and the Mist, Rock, and Cloud Shinobi have ever experienced. Even though the enemy Shinobi launch attacks at him Ryoshu shrugs most of them off, his thick fur acting as armor, however eventually he begins to run out of chakra and growls to Naruto to let him know they're going to launch one last attack.

The 17 year old runs through hand seals and intones, "Fire Release: Great Fire Destruction!(Katon: Goka Messhitsu)" As he releases a massive stream of fire from his mouth at the same time that Fenrir takes a break and releases it while calling out, "Wind Release: Howling Wind!(Futon: Hauringu-Fu)" Releasing a large gust of hot wind which mixes with the flames from Naruto's Jutsu and becomes a gigantic wave of white hot flames in the shape of a wolfs head, as they say together "Collaboration Jutsu: Wolf Flame Obliteration!(Konbijutsu: Okami Hono Heisoku)" As the wave of flames washes over a large group of the enemy Shinobi turning them to ashes.

After the attack ends Naruto flashes to one of his Kunai as Ryoshu puffs away giving him a smoke screen, and he proceeds to flash all over killing around another 3000. When the smoke clears he flashes back next to Yushiro, leaving only around 10,000 of the enemy forces left. The remaining men and women look around at all their dead comrades, killed by only one man, so they decide retreat is the better part of valor, the all turn around and run back to their ships, however before they do some of them turn and burn the bodies of their fallen comrades so as not to leave any secrets behind. As the 3 Ninja village retreat they put to memory the face of the man who single handedly routed their invasion of the Whirlpool village.

All the Whirlpool Shinobi are amazed by the prowess that this one 17 year old boy just showed, facing a 60,000 strong army made up of 3 different Shinobi Villages, including their Jinchuriki and completely destroying them without breaking a sweat. Soon though a wave of cheers begins to start and after a few moments Every single man and woman there are cheering and chanting his name so loud that even the retreating ships of the enemy ninja can hear it. Naruto for his part can only scratch the back of his head in embarrassment and plead with them to stop cheering.

Kenshin and Yushiro stand back away from the goings on with happy but shocked smiles on their faces, as the younger of the two brothers comments, "That boy is quite a Shinobi Onii-Sama. His power and skill is up there with the greatest of Shinobi, I dare say he's stronger then you, after all even you with all your power could have only killed a quarter of their number before running dry on chakra and being killed."

The older brother nods along with his words as he replies, "Your correct there Ototo. However most of the work was done via his warping technique as well as Senjutsu Enhanced Wood Release bloodline. The enemy was not expecting to come up against a member of the Uzumaki clan who could teleport all over in an instant let alone use the Wood Release of the 1st Hokage." They watch as their men and women lift the teen up and toss him in the air and then catch him while he protests with a smile, and they can't help but to smile.


By the time the Reinforcement from Leaf Arrive via the teleportation seal in the Uzukage tower, lead by Tsunade, Sakumo, and Danzo, all the Shinobi are back in the village celebrating with drinks and food. Tsunade seeing her love right in the middle of the party, being pat on the back by multiple Whirlpool Shinobi marches right up to him and asks, "Naru-kun whats going here?! Why is everyone sitting here partying when an enemy force is out there waiting to attack?!" When he hears her voice and looks up to see the gorgeous blonde he smiles widely as he jumps up to his feet, walks over to her and pulls he into a passionate kiss, causing many Whirlpool and Leaf Ninja to wolf whistle.

The blonde for her part can do nothing but melt into his embrace and return his kiss with just as much passion. When they part for air, Tsunade is slightly dazed but has a smile on her face, while the red-head sighs in content, "Tsu-Hime, gods how I've missed you. To answer your question the invasion is over. Rock, Mist, and Cloud all turned tail and ran after over 80% of their forces were decimated within an hour and a half." All the Leaf Shinobi's eyes widen when they hear this, even Danzo and Sakumo, as both men look over all the whirlpool Shinobi and notice not even a drop of blood on their clothes let alone any kind of exhaustion on their faces.

Danzo steps up to his former student and asks, "How did you all accomplish that? From what I can see it doesn't even look like any of the men or women here even saw battle." At this point Yushiro walks up and claps Naruto on the shoulder and answers the other man's question, "It was all because of Naruto-kun here. Using a combination of Senjutsu, Hiraishin, Wood Release, and Summoning he managed to completely surprise and overwhelm the enemy forces. All this in only a bit over an hour." Hearing that Naruto has Wood Release Shocks every Leaf Shinobi except Tsunade, however the blonde is shocked that he's learned Senjutsu as that's something that not even her or her two teammates have learned yet.

Naruto for his part just rubs his head in embarrassment, "Stop Yushiro-Ojisan, your making a bigger deal out of what I did then you need to. I'm sure that the result would have been much better if You and Kenshin-sensei fought alongside me and we would have sent half as many running home." The man shakes his head at this, "As strong as Kenshin and I are we could never have done as you did. If we had tried we would have ended up getting overwhelmed and running out of chakra and would now be dead. You are a Shinobi on a whole other level, and what truly fills me with hope is that your still young, you still have room to grow even more powerful."

The younger red-head smiles at him, as Sakumo walks up to him and punches him in the shoulder, "You Baka. You couldn't wait for us to get here and leave some Rock, Cloud, and Mist Shinobi for us? You're so selfish old buddy." All this is said with a smile buy the slightly shorter man. Something Naruto notices about his love and his friend is that they've both grown as he has, though Tsunade has only grown about 2 inches, now standing at 5'3, but her bust has increased further now being a DD-Cup, also she now keeps her hair tied in two tight pig tails down her back. Sakumo now stands a respectable 5'10, and his silver-hair is more gravity defying then ever.

After getting over their shock the Leaf Shinobi decide to join the Whirlpool Shinobi in their celebration, while Danzo decides to send off a Hawk Summon with a message for Sarutobi that the threat had passed and that He should talk to Mito about Naruto having a certain connection to the 1st Hokage. That night there are two party's going on for the victory over Mist, Rock, and Cloud, the one in the Whirlpool, and one in the Senju Compound in the Leaf where all the Civilians, children, and elderly are staying for the night.

None of them having the slightest idea that within a weeks time the young man responsible for the defeat of 50,000 men and women would have a new entry in the bingo books. The night is just spent in cheer and revelry, and Naruto catches up with his girlfriend, by which they spend the entire night cuddling and making out, even though both want to take their relationship to the next level Tsunade manages to keep control of the situation, wanting to save that particular act for when he returns to the leaf. So instead they settle for cuddling up together in his bed and falling asleep in each others arms.

The next day all the Citizens of Whirlpool returned to the village and their everyday lives, while the Leaf Shinobi headed back to the Leaf, before teleporting away Naruto and Tsunade shared one last kiss with the blonde telling him, "See you in 6 Months Naru-kun." The red-head nodded his head but leaned in close to her and whispered in her ear, "You should think about taking some time and going to the home of the Slugs to learn Senjutsu Tsu-chan, I guarantee you wont regret it." All she could do was nod and promise she'd look into sometime in the future before disappearing in a flash of white.


After that life on the Island and in the Village went back to normal, Naruto continued his training attempting to become even stronger then before. A week after the Invasion Whirlpool received the new bingo books from all the Nations, an as Yushiro was flipping through them he found the same entry in every single one except the leaf. The man showed it to his family at dinner especially Naruto as the entry was about him, In every book there was a photo of him with his long red-hair flowing in the wind, his Leaf Forehead protector displayed proudly on his forehead, and you could see his sword on his shoulder covered in blood.

Special Order: Flee on Sight! Do not engage unless you are a Kage or Kage-Level Shinobi. Naruto Uzumaki is responsible for the deaths of 50,000 Rock, Cloud, and Mist Shinobi in the failed invasion of Whirlpool Village.

After reading that Naruto could only chuckle to himself, as it seems he's become the first flash of the leaf, and a bloody crimson one at that. Also the fact that he's one of the only Shinobi in history to gain a Flee on Sight order much like his future father, the funniest thing is that he still has yet to even regain half the power he had in his prior time line. He still has a ways to go, first he needs to regain his tailed beast mode, then he needs to unlock the Rinnegan and train with it, and then regain the Six-Paths sage mode, but he's still a long way off from all of that.

After getting over the fact that he's now a certified S-Rank Shinobi he was teased by Kimiko who said he'd probably do something to completely mess up his mysterious and serious S-Rank status. Kenshin however put a stop to this and said it was time to get back to training and learning the last 2 of the Shigure Soen-Ryu attacks, the ones he himself created when he succeeded his master. So they headed out back to continue the Shigure Soen-Ryu training.


6 Months later

Day of Return to Leaf

The Final 6 Months of Naruto's stay in Whirlpool seemed to flyby. After the invasion Naruto put his nose back to the grindstone and increased his training even more, having learned the final 2 techniques of Kenshin's Shigure Soen-Ryu and then creating 3 more forms of his own, even though he still prefers his Hiten Mitsurugi-Ryu, which he's also perfected, having learned both the Succession techniques, Kuzuryusen(Nine-Headed Dragon Flash) which is the second most powerful attack in the style because it targets all 9 vital points in the body at the same time.

He also learned the Ultimate Succession technique the Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki(Heaven's Soaring Dragon Flash) Which is the most powerful attack in the Hiten Mitsurugi-Ryu, as it an attack that goes beyond Godspeed, the way it does this is by at the last moment when one uses Battojutsu, at the last moment of the attack you put your left leg in front of your right leg before drawing your sword. Also even if by chance the initial blow is blocked then the air is displaced from the power and force of the blocked strike in such a way that it creates a vortex which draws the opponent in for a second blow. The second blow then uses the pent up force from the first to accelerate itself.

He also has mastered all the Uzumaki Clan Fuinjutsu, even improving some of them and giving his notes to Yushiro to use and teach to future generations of Uzumaki including his own daughter, he also hinted to the man that he and his wife should have another child to give Kushina a sibling as growing up an only child is never fun. However today finds the 18 year old standing outside the gates of the Village preparing to head back to his first home, while everyone has come to see him off.

At the head of the large crowd in the Uzukage himself, wearing a blue kimono and Hakama pants with whirlpools all over them. Yushiro steps forward and embraces the young man with a strong hug, then steps back and speaks, "It has been a pleasure to have you here Naruto-Kun. Under normal circumstances I would try to convince you to stay and take your place as a member of the Clan, but I know your heart is in the Leaf with Tsunade. All I can do is to thank you for all you have done for the village, and to tell you that you carry the Uzumaki name Proudly."

The younger red-head bows his head in gratitude, "Thank you for your words Yushiro-Ojisan. Thank you for taking me in and accepting me as a true Uzumaki. Thank you for all the training and life lessons you have bestowed upon me. Most of all Thank you for having faith in me 6 months ago, and not treating me like a child for my crazy idea. I will always remember my time here and look back on it fondly, and this will always be my second home. However I must return to my real home, to my friends, and to the love of my life."

The man nods his head and steps back as his wife steps forward with their daughter and the two female Uzumaki hug him, with the 3 year old crying, "No go Ruto-Nii." He just rubs her head and smiles at her, "Don't Worry Shina-chan, we'll see each other again sooner or later. You be a good girl for your Kaa-san and Tou-san." Then he speaks to the mother, "Thank you for your care and great meals these last 3 years Kunika-Obasan." The woman smiles at him and nods her head and then steps away. He turns to the entire village at that point, "Well I'm off! Goodbye Everyone, I hope all of you remain Healthy, happy, and Safe!"

The entire village lets out a chorus of "Goodbye Naruto! Come Back Soon!" the teen gives one last look to the main family, smiles and says, "Sayōnara watashi no kazoku(Goodbye my family)" Then he disappears in his usual red flash. A few minutes after he leaves everyone begins to filter back to their business, until the only ones left standing at the gate are Yushiro and Kenshin, who share a look as they know that the teen will gain even more fame in the future, and the Uzukage believes in his heart that Naruto will become the 4th God Of Shinobi(Yondaime Shinobi no Kami).


Port Town

Eastern Coast of Land of Fire

1 second later

There is a flash of red at the docks of the port town from which he left from 3 years ago, scaring the fishermen and dock workers to death, as Naruto appears out of it in all his glory. He takes a looks around and smiles apologetically to the people in the area and then right away body flickers away, appearing again outside the gate of the town, where he proceeds to Hop into the trees and take off at his current top speed. As he rushes through the trees unseen to the naked eye he's placing Hiraishin seals on the trunk of one tree every 10 Kilometers so he can flash anywhere in the eastern half of the land of fire when he needs to.


2 Days Later

Leaf Village Eastern Gate

After two days of traveling at Kage Level speeds The red-head finally reaches the same gate he left from 3 years ago. As he enters he notices that he arrived during the changing of the guards so he speeds through and starts to roof hop to his first home, and the 3 people who mean the most to him in the world. As he hops by some hot springs he notices a familiar head of spiky white-hair peeping on the woman's side so he stops and smiles as he changes his voice a little making it deeper and yells, "PERVERT! THERES A WHITE-HAIRED PERVERT PEEKING ON WOMEN IN THE HOTSPRINGS!"

Right after yelling this he hides and watches what unfolds. Jiraiya for his part looks around for the source of the yell which just blew his cover, but can't find anyone. However he doesn't get much time to look as he hears the sounds of Knuckles cracking behind him and turns to see all the women he was just peeking at with towels wrapped around their bodies and looks of fury on their faces. He chuckles nervously, "Now ladies, lets not do anything we're going to regret later. It was just a little harmless look, I didnt even see all that much."

However the group of angry women, which includes several Kunoichi ignore him and scream, "DIE PERVERT!" As they begin to beat the ever living crap out of him causing him to scream like a girl. When they're done he's laying in a crater a bloody mess as they all sniff and head back inside to get dressed. A few moments after they're gone Jiraiya miraculously jumps up unharmed and dusts himself off, "I swear when I find who blew my cover they'll pay." With that he huffs and trots off, while up in a tree hidden away Naruto is silently laughing his ass off, his sides hurting from how hard he's laughing.

After a few moments though he gets himself calmed down and decides to continue on to the Senju Compound.


Senju Main House

5 Minutes later

5 minutes after his fun at his white-haired friends expense, the red-head finally reaches his first home. He closes his eyes and senses the Chakra signatures inside and finds 4 familiar signatures, 3 of which are the Senju family, the 4th however puts a bigger smile on his face as it happens to belong to his female teammate. Without further ado, he opens the door and walks in, closing it behind him quietly and taking off his sandals, he then walks down the hall towards the family room, his footsteps not making a sound. On the way he sets his Sword and his pouches down near the stairs so as to make even less noise.

When he gets to the doors of the family room he can hear the 4 people inside talking and laughing, having a good time and he smiles, but quickly schools his features into a calm look as he jerks the sliding doors open. The occupants inside are shocked by the sudden opening of the doors and loo towards the doorway and are further shocked by who they see. The red-head steps into the room and speaks softly, "I'm Home Obachan, Nawaki-kun, Tsu-chan."

The first to come out of their shock is Tsunade as the blonde gets up and rushes him, tackling him into a hug with a huge smiles on her beautiful face, "Welcome home Naru-kun. We've missed you." He wraps his arms around her and kisses the top of her head. After that Nawaki gets up and limps over to him, and after the blonde releases him the brown-haired 13 year old hugs him, "Welcome home Naruto-Onii-san." He looks him over and comments, "Onii-san your hair is almost as long as Ero-Jiraiya's. You should cut it."

Naruto chuckles at this, "I'll think about it Nawaki-kun. Then again it depends on rather or not Tsu-chan likes it long." He looks the boy over and makes his own comment, "You've gotten taller Nawaki-kun. Also I see that you're hobbling around due to a false kneecap, I want to say sorry to you for not getting to you faster." His statement is true as over the last year the boy has grown, where as when he saved him he was 4'7, he's now 5'0. Also the brown-haired boy waves of his apology letting him know he still doesn't blame him.

The red-head then walks over to the elderly Mito who is now in her 60s and kneels down to gather her into a light hug, as the woman smiles and pats his back, "Welcome home Naruto-kun. Your presence in this house has been missed." Naruto smiles at her and stands back up as he takes 2 scrolls from his vest and holds them out to her as he replies, "Thank you Mito-Obasan, not only for welcoming me back but for sending these scrolls to Whirlpool for me to learn from. They were a great help and while I haven't mastered all the Jutsu yet I have learned every last one."

She accepts them back and nods at him with a wistful smile. He then turns to Izumi whom he now notices has grown a lot in the last 3 years, now standing slightly taller then Tsunade at 5'4, with a very slender, yet fit feminine build from years of training, her black-hair is now cut to her shoulder blades and the front is in a Hime-cut. Her breasts are now a solid D-Cup, but her black eyes are now a bit dull. He can tell what its from, as he's seen it before in the eyes of his future best friend turned enemy Sasuke Uchiha, it's deterioration from the use of the Mangekyo Sharingan.

He smiles at his teammate and pats her shoulder, "Good to see you Izumi. I hear you've been keeping busy and getting stronger. I'm happy for you Genjutsu Mistress. But your eyes don't look so good." She scows at him for his last comment as she slaps him on the chest. Then she decides to answer his statements, "It's good to see you as well Naruto. I've been doing my best to stay busy and have gotten a lot stronger. Thank you for the praise on my Genjutsu abilities, and my eyes are fine." In response to this he scowls and creates a shadow clone without smoke, the clone grabs her by both shoulders and Body Flickers away with her.

The others in the room look at him funny as Tsunade asks, "What was that about Naru-kun?" The red-head shakes his head in response and proceeds to sit down on one of the empty cushions, pulling the blonde with him so she's sitting in his lap and proceeds to get re-acquainted with his most precious people, telling them he just got in today, and that he hasn't informed Sarutobi that he's back yet but plans to do that tomorrow, and just spends the rest of the day and evening with the three of them, while his clone has a conversation with Izumi about the Mangekyo, how she got it, and how to cure the encroaching blindness, just happy to be home for the first time in 3 years.


Annnd Cut! well there you have it chapter 6. Naruto saves Nawaki, and Decimates the Invasion force with Hiraishin, wood Release and a Giant Freakin Wolf. Next chapter picks up where this one left off, starting with the conversation between Naruto and Izumi about how she achieved the Mangekyo and how to reverse its side effects. Before anyone brings it up, not she did not achieve it through the death of a friend or loved one so don't worry about her being like all other Uchiha who would kill their own mothers to get that power. Also next chapter Minato makes his first appearance as a cute little 3 year old genius. Anyway as always please read and review. Oh and be sure to vote on my latest poll. Until next time.
