The return of the last Namikaze

Chapter 6.5: Realizations and Reactions (cont'd)

Jariya grinned as he watched Naruto leave, feeling proud for the boy for what was going to happen to him.

10 minutes later...

Naruto strolled through the gates and began walking towards his second home the ramen shop, but before he could take ten steps, he heard a delightful scream.

Looking to the right where the scream came from, Naruto's eyes widened at the sight before him. Here was a group of, I don't know, maybe over a hundred girls apparently waiting for him. How they knew where he would be, Naruto could only guess.

"I'm gonna kill Pervy sage later." Naruto thought in annoyance.

The girl who screamed was the only one looking in his direction, as thee other girls were huddled in several groups talking.

But as if they have practised this, all the girls suddenly turned to see who it was, and seeing him there, had stars shining in their eyes.

Naruto took a step back, a whole new feeling washing over him, as he saw over 200 eyes staring at him, all looking hungry, and it looked with he was a prime three course meal.

Suddenly, all the girls seemingly launched forward in one big concerted rush.

Naruto's face look at the approaching mob with fear in his eyes, just as the crowd was about a foot from him, his survival instincts kicked in, and he ran full speed away from the mob.

The girl who screamed, seemingly taking up the role of leader, shouted; "Oh no you don't, girls after him!"

The next hour or so was spent running away for the mob. At last, when Naruto couldn't take it anymore, flash stepped to outside the village. It was very far range, and Naruto knew that it took up his 3 a day amount of times he could do it.

Sighing, Naruto began walking away from the village.

"So that's what Pervy Sage was talking about; fan girls..." Naruto just stopped thinking as he just stared straight in front of him.

Suddenly feeling depressed for no apparent reason, Naruto headed for the training grounds. (Redundant eh? I guess Naruto solves all his problems training.)

Naruto stopped short when he reached his normal training ground. From looking in from the fence surrounding the grounds, Naruto saw his fellow friends from the Rookie 9.

Naruto stood looking through the fence wondering if he should go in.

Flash back no Jutsu

The Rookie 9 walked silently towards the training grounds. It was Tenten's idea that they should relax somewhere outside and quiet. So they walked towards the training grounds and wordlessly seemed to go into training ground three without much thought.

Once there, they sat for a good while in silence, each deep in their own thoughts.

Soon Kiba decided to break the silence.

"So, son of the Fourth huh?" He said.

The male side struck up a conversation from that, discussing what happened at the announcement that same morning.

From the female side however, things were quiet, too quiet. Each sat in strained silence, never looking each other in the eyes. Soon the guys started to notice it and slowly all conversation ceased.

Release.

Naruto stood outside of the gate for what must have been five minutes until he couldn't take it anymore.

He walked into the training ground. Everyone looked up at the same time to see Naruto scratching his head as usual when he was nervous.

"Ummm, hey guys. (?)"

The group, apparently unsure of how to respond, gave a seemingly rehearsed 'hey.'

Naruto sweatdropped and sighed before sitting down and leaning back on one of the trees.

Moments pasted in silence, before Choji decided to break the seemingly icy conditions around them.

"So, Namikaze, eh?" he said with a hint of unease in his voice.

"Yeah," Naruto said while scratching his head again nervously, "I don't get what the big deal is though, it's just a name."

Most people face faulted as they heard Naruto say this.

Kiba spoke up, "Are you kidding? You're the son of the hero of the leaf; you have the yellow flash techniques for bloody crying out loud!"

Naruto just shook his head and smiled. Small talk emerged from that and soon all the males were chatting and laughing like nothing happened, except the girls who remained the same.

While the other's talked, Naruto moved over to Shikamaru and whispered; "What's up with the girls?"

The questioned boy just shook his head; "You just realized something was up?"

"Hey, I'm kinda dense you know," Naruto replied without any concern of what he just said.

"Meh, doesn't matter, just hope they start talking soon, it's kinda getting weird having them stare at each other silently like another great shinobi war was going to begin if they talked, or for that matter do anything."

Naruto nodded before quickly making a plan in his mind.

Putting his hands behind his back, Naruto wordlessly made four shadow clones that appeared in the bushes behind them out of sight. The four clones snuck up on the girls and waited. The girls were oblivious to it until Tenten turned around to see a snoring Naruto behind her.

Naruto sweatdropped as he looked on. "Note to self: making shadow clones without hand seals is good, the clones won't expire...they'll just fall asleep."

Meanwhile, Tenten just sighed as she took out a kunai and dispelled it before looking at Naruto. Naruto simply motioned for her to come over by him, while silently dispelling the other clones. All this time, the other girls didn't see anything.

*From other girls point of view* Tenten wordlessly got up and went over and sat down to Naruto, talking to him softly. At that point, Hinata was practically blowing steam out of her ears, while Sakura had a bit less of a reaction and Ino had almost no reaction to that.

*Normal view* Tenten walked over to Naruto and sat down next to him, everyone watching them from the corner of their eyes.

"What's up with you girls?" Naruto whispered.

Tenten didn't respond immediately, she just sighed as if deciding what words to say, before finally saying "We have a lot on our minds."

"Understatement." Naruto said dryly.

Really and truly the girls weren't that much of drama queens but they just were keeping quiet to see how things played out.

Shikamaru looked on with interest.

"This is gonna be interesting."

As more small talk emerged, Naruto wondered how things were gonna work out.

"This is gonna suck, I know it. To many things going on mean to there's a chance that things will slip past me. Gotta keep my guard up. Still, I wonder how much longer I'll have to hide stuff by the Sakkakugan. Meh, I that word is weird to say..."

As Naruto kept ranting on in his mind, he was startled when he felt someone tap his shoulder. Without turning, Naruto answered.

"Hai, ambu-san?"

The ambu blinked as he heard the calm and respectful voice of this boy. He had heard reports of the boy usually being an over-hyperactive knucklehead, (:O) or so he heard from Kakashi, but the boy struck him as someone who just didn't care what other people thought of him.

"Hokage-sama has requested you come to her office." The ambu said with a hint of unease in his voice.

Naruto simply nodded. Getting the answer, the ambu shushined away silently.

Naruto kept his head straight, looking around consciously to see if anyone saw what happened. From the reactions, it seemed that only Shikamaru and Shino noticed. Naruto sighed and got up.

"I gotta go guys, but I'll meet u all later." Naruto said.

Getting up and nodding to the guys, and giving a look to the girls, Naruto walked towards Konoha, muttering something about stupid Namikaze name and granny dropping dead.

Upon arriving at the Hokage's mansion, a tired Naruto walked lazily up the side to the Hokage's window. Upon arriving, Naruto was greeted by the sight of a snoring Hokage.

Grinning to himself, Naruto silently crept up behind Tsunade's sleeping form.

Naruto slowly reached his hand for Tsunade's shoulder, but just as his hands was just inches away from her, Tsunade's eyes opened with fury, and with one swift movement, sent a chakra infused hand at Naruto with the intent to kill.

The punch hit Naruto with the force of a monster truck and Naruto was sent flying out of the window before disappearing in the distance, the only evidence left was smoke coming out from the far side of the village, which Tsunade concluded was most likely the village walls.

Tsunade huffed and turned around to find herself face to face with a smirking Naruto.

"Yo." Naruto said in a lazy Kakashi voice.

Tsunade's eyes widened as she looked back at where she saw Naruto go and then back at Naruto standing in front of her.

All she could say was, "How?"

Naruto grinned and replied, "Training with Kurenai-sensei."

Tsunade slowly nodded thinking that it was just some advances Genjutsu, but it should be impossible! She didn't know anything; she was under a powerful Genjutsu without even knowing. Too her knowledge, the only person who was able to do that was Sushi Uchiha! It was only then that she realized that his Sakkakugan was activated.

If this was an ability of the Sakkakugan, then it was serious. Sushi Uchiha was known to have controlled people for months without then knowing.

"I'm gonna have to have a talk with Kurenai soon." Tsunade mused.

Getting back to the present, Tsunade pushed these thoughts to the back of her mind and signalled for Naruto to follow.

Naruto nodded and followed her, deactivating his eyes as he walked.

In the meanwhile, the old war hawk, Danzo, summoned his youngest root member. The nameless robot boy appeared before him, silently awaiting his instructions.

Danzo analyzed the boy before speaking.

"I'm giving you a simple mission of delivering a message for me."

The boy nodded and took the message from Danzo's out stretched.

"The person for whom the message is for, however, may not be so easily be receptive though. However, I believe that you will be able to work this out. You will have four months to complete this mission, and for the duration of it, your name will be Sai."

Looking at the top of the scroll he gave a small gasp when he saw the name on it. "This is..." the boy said with minor awe.

"Your mission." Danzo said firmly.

"Understood." The now named Sai responded in a monotone voice.

Back at the Hokage's mansion, Naruto walked behind Tsunade for a while before asking, "So what am I here for?"

Tsunade sighed as she knew this would give her a head ache soon.

"Your first council meeting." Tsunade said.

Naruto gave a double take but soon set his mind as they approached the door leading to the council room.

"Let's go, just watch your mouth in there." Tsunade said seriously.

Naruto nodded and braced himself as the doors opened leading into the room.

Next time: A council meetings and a change.

Yes I know, 2 months, I going into the gutter with updating but in the summer things will get better. Gonna start making omakes every couple chapters, so here's the first one, and I won't be giving story stats every chapter, maybe every 5 or so, anyway, on to the omake.

Omake

The cast met in the lounge after filming to relax and chill out.

Out of the blue, Tenten asked, "So what do you guys think about this writer who makes this story?"

Naruto spoke up, "I don't really like the guy much, he's always writing my training in flashbacks, I mean, what's up with that?"

Everyone just shook their heads.

"However," Naruto added with a grin, "I like the scene when I appear in front of the whole village with dad's jutsu."

Sakura scoffed and said, "Don't let it get to your head Naruto, this writer could abandon you and start writing about Sasuke-kun."

Naruto just shook his head. "Why did this guy have to make Sakura obsessed with the teme even when she's supposed to be mature?"

Suddenly a strange voice sounded in Naruto's head.

"The world may never know..."

Naruto stood still before relaxing. Maybe this voice was right. Meh, but I bet this writer will still make stupid stuff about the teme.

And some the thoughts continued through Naruto's head, all this time, in another dimension, a crazy being was laughing his head off. (And no the person is not me.)

So there you go, remember this is the second half of the chapter, so it wasn't as long as the normal ones, oh well, review please, I know I don't deserve it, but, to make it up to you all, there will be a special gift if I get a certain number of reviews before my next update. Shouldn't be too hard.

The hiper-active knucklehead.

(Side note, get down crazy! *gasp* references!)
