(In the mindscape)
The kyuubi was currently carrying Naruto and Tsunade to the central meeting place, Naruto was currently telling her exactly what to look out for and who would be the worst of his siblings to annoy.
"Ok, B and Yugito will probably be ok with you being here. Garra well he's going through an epiphany or something but still might react violently to your presence. Yagura might try to skin you alive and drown you but she's a Kage and does do a lot of diplomacy so you may be able to survive her." At this Tsunade blanched and started to sweat slightly. "Roshi hasn't been in contact with humans in a few years and may try to melt you a few times but as long as you don't make fun of his ridiculous hat and nose guard I'll be able to stop the worst of it, but if you insult them then you better have a grave ready. Hana is normally quite friendly but she also tries to stay away from humans, she does have regular contact with her Kage but normally only to send her on missions, don't provoke her though." Tsunade started to sweat even more and looked at Naruto like he was crazy. "Utakata is probably too lazy to attack you but he doesn't like humans and has been avoiding them since he escaped the mist, Yagura's been trying to get him back but that's none of your business. Fu might immediately aim for your throat and she may possibly try to gut you like a fish but, um. Good luck with Fu."
"Aren't you going to say you'll protect me or something?" Tsunade asked, she was currently terrified.
"Yeah, I'll try my best."
"This is my life we're talking about here. Could you sound a bit more reassuring?"
"Oh, don't worry, if you die here you won't die in real life right Kaa-chan?"
"No of course not. If she were to die here her body would become comatose and eventually braindead, she'd be perfectly fine." The Kyuubi answered which definitely did not help any of Tsunade's fears.
"And since the bijuu all know we're coming we've nothing to worry about from them." Naruto said finally, this caused the Kyuubi to mutter something, "what was that Kaa-chan?"
"I may have ever so slightly forgotten to tell them we were bringing her." Naruto and Tsunade started sweating like a waterfall, Naruto looked to Tsunade and she thought he would say something to make her feel better.
"If it makes you feel better we won't pull the plug on your body." This did not make her feel better.
"So, you're bringing me to meet eight extremely hostile bijuu who may just vaporise me on the spot, and six human hating Jinchuuriki with only you and maybe two slightly less hostile Jinchuuriki on our side?"
"Yup, it looks like we're here." Tsunade nearly had a heart attack when she saw the eight menacing forms of the bijuu look right at them and then immediately stare at her, she then took note of eight very confused looking Jinchuuriki, six of who's confusion was turning to visible anger. They all stood there for about a minute just staring at each other before Naruto spoke up.
"I just want to point out, this was all Kaa-chans idea." Then all hell broke loose, there were cries from the bijuu of "What the hell were you thinking?" and "Have you lost your mind?" while the Jinchuuriki had a more varied reaction, Garra just looked confused; Yugito looked very annoyed but it was more directed at Naruto than Tsunade; Yagura looked like she was about to fire off jutsu and had already removed her staff from her back; Roshi looked shocked which morphed into slight fear as he assumed she had broken in; Hana stared blankly at the three of them not letting any emotion show; Utakata looked slightly angry but went back to blowing his bubbles; Fu looked downright murderous and had grown wings and was already flying towards them; B just looked at Tsunade's chest.
Fu flew up and was about to kill Tsunade but Naruto stood in her way, "calm down Nee-chan, she's just here to talk."
"No! We need to kill her, she's seen this place and she'll give us away. She'll tell the others and then we'll not be able to talk and-" She was interrupted when Naruto brought her into a hug.
"Calm down Nee-chan, that won't happen. She's here to help, she's a friend and cousin to Kaa-san, do you remember my Kaa-san? She was Kaa-chan's Jinchuuriki before me, you were young back then but you should be able to remember her."
Fu started crying slightly, "yeah, I remember her, she used to tell stories but she was one of us! This woman isn't she'll hurt us!" she shouted before going to a whisper, "she'll hurt you."
"She won't, she's here to help us but she needed to know about us to help us, she won't tell anyone." Naruto whispered and brought her closer into the hug.
"I know she can be trusted because she saved me, I was dying and Kaa-chan couldn't help. She healed me." Fu looked shocked and teared up even more at the thought of losing her little brother. "That's why she's here, we have a weakness and she can help us."
"What kind of weakness?" Hana asked making her presence known.
"Bijuu chakra doesn't work against sage chakra, Kaa-chan couldn't heal the damage from Orochimaru's sword, Zetsu was there and may have figured out that we are weak against something, if the Akatsuki use this weakness on us before we're ready we will have no chance. That is why we need a summoning contract that can teach us sage jutsu, she has the slug contract and Saiken is the head of that contract."
"That doesn't mean we should trust her, especially with this knowledge. What does it matter when we do the plan anyway?" Utakata asked.
"We need time to enact our plan, for one thing we need to split the bijuu chakra and get all of that organised, then we need to find a way to release Kaa-chan's other half so that I can be absorbed and then we overload it." Naruto replied.
"What!?" Tsunade asked, Naruto hadn't actually told her about their plan to take care of the ten tails, now she learned Naruto would be absorbed. Naruto then told her the basics of his plan to defeat the Shinju and she was horrified.
"You can't do that, Naruto you'll die!" Tsunade told him.
"I know but it will save everyone else. It is the only way." Naruto replied.
"No, it's not," Hana said, "we found another way."
"Hana! We agreed not to tell him until the preparations are complete." Roshi said.
"What are you talking about, you know of another way to do it?" Naruto asked.
"Naruto, we can't tell you, please don't ask anymore." Roshi said.
"No, I want to hear, what is the other way and why are you keeping it from me?" Naruto asked.
"We can't you'd disagree, but it will soon be too late, you don't get to make this choice." Yugito said.
"What is it, if you know I'd disagree then why are you doing it? The plan is perfect the way it is, I'm the only one who dies." Naruto said.
"But you won't just die! Your soul will be torn apart and you'll be in pain for all eternity, we will just make sure that won't happen." Fu said, tears streaming down her face.
"What is the cost?" Naruto asked.
"Naruto, we can't tell you it-" Hana began but was interrupted.
"What is the cost!? I need to know, what will it even do?" Naruto interrupted.
"It will save your soul; you won't suffer anymore." Yagura said.
"But I still die?" Naruto asked.
"Possibly." B said solemnly.
"Then what's the cost?" Naruto asked.
"Naruto, we can't tell you that, you'll just disagree." Yagura said.
"What is the cost, I need to know!" Naruto yelled.
"We can't tell you, it's for your own good!" Fu yelled.
"For my own good? Your lying to me 'for my own good'? No that is what the old man said, that's what the ANBU said, that is what they said after they said they couldn't tell me why I was beat up, that's what the mobs said as they beat me that is what the humans say when they lie to me. So why aren't you telling me!?" Naruto said.
"Because you care too much!" Fu said, causing Naruto to look confused, "you care too much about us! You never think of yourself, your going to give everything for us! It's our turn to return the favour, you will die, but we will go with you."
Fu said causing Naruto's eyes to widen. "No! This is my choice to save all of you, you don't-" Naruto said.
"And this our choice to save you, we wouldn't be able to live knowing you sacrificed not only your life but your death as well for us. We won't be able to go on knowing that you're suffering for us. We couldn't, we just couldn't!" Yugito yelled.
"So, you want my death to be in vain, you want to die as well because of that?" Naruto asked.
"We won't die, not properly anyway." Hana muttered.
"What do you mean? What is this plan anyway?" Naruto asked.
"We'll talk about this later, for now we have to deal with her." Fu said with as much venom as she could as she dried her tears. "Why didn't you just take the contract or at least make up another excuse?"
"I don't think she would give me the contract without a good reason, I brought her here as proof, now this is Tsunade of the sannin, the fifth Hokage." Naruto said. "Ok, so now what?"
"I don't know, you brought her, I assume you told her of the situation." Naruto nodded at Yugito's statement.
"Well as Hokage, I'll try to keep you up to date on any Akatsuki sightings that you may have missed, do you know where there based?" Tsunade asked.
"Yes, Ame. Their strongest defeated Hanzo the salamander and has brought peace." Roshi said.
"Their leader was manipulated, all he wants is peace, he became a pawn in Madara's plan. Tsunade don't trust the one named Danzo, he is the cause of many problems. It was he who led to Nagato, Akatsuki's leader, down his path. He caused Nagato to kill his friend and led to the creation of Akatsuki as we know it." Kurama said, it seemed they stopped bickering.
"Saiken was spying as this happened, he believes Konoha is to blame." Matatabi said.
"Thank you, Naruto I think we should go, people will be getting worried by now." Tsunade said. The two of them left leaving the others in the mindscape.
"Are you sure it is wise letting her know Kurama?" Isobu asked.
"Yes, she is trustworthy, she is also part Uzumaki. She and Kushina were also friends." Kurama said.
"And you," Kukuo began looking at Hana, "we agreed not to tell him until the preparations are complete, by then we will have no choice but to go along with the plan, now that he knows he may be able to talk you out of it."
"He won't, we will go through with this. If there is even a chance of lessening his suffering, we shall take it." Hana replied.
"It's true, he won't suffer alone, we will make sure of that." Fu said.
"How long until the point of no return?" Roshi asked.
"At the rate we're going, three years. You all must survive for three years longer." Gyuki said.
"Has he noticed the changes yet Kurama?" Shukaku asked.
"No, not yet. It is only a matter of time. I still hate not telling him what we're doing to him, it feels like we're taking advantage of him." Kurama said.
"As long as he lives, I don't care if he hates us until the end of time, but our brother will live." Yagura said.
"How long until he realises do you think?" Son Goku asked.
"A few weeks at best, a few days at worst. It will hurt him the most you know, I hope you know what you're taking away from him. You'll take away any chance for him to earn the respect of the village, if he still held onto that dream of being Hokage he would hate you. As it is he will still hate you, but he could never keep that hatred for you, he loves you too much for that." Kurama said.
"Like Yagura said, as long as he lives." Garra said.
"I don't want to see him hate us, and he will for a time, but your right. It is the only way." Kurama said sadly, "I hope you understand, he may never trust us again after this."
"We know, but we don't care." Yugito said.
(In the Hokage's office)
Naruto and Tsunade woke up and Tsunade looked at the clock, only an hour had passed. "How, we were in there for hours?" Tsunade asked.
"Time acts differently in the seal; we don't really know the exact scale but it is slower in there than out here." Naruto replied. He suddenly turned serious, "not a word to anyone, not the council, not the pervert not even Shizune. Don't speak of it unless there are privacy seals about and you're sure no one will hear. This secret has been hidden from humans since the sage of six paths time. You are the first and likely the last human to know it."
"I understand, I'll get you the contract as soon as possible. Is there any chance I could have it returned?" Tsunade asked.
"Of course, we'll figure out how to send it from person to person and it will eventually return to you. Thank you by the way. Is there any chance you could keep an ear out for any of the other contracts? Specifically, the bijuu's ones, some of them have multiple contract but apparently, they like to keep in contact with each other so any of the ones with the bijuu involved. I know Kakashi and Gai each have one but I don't know how to approach them, I won't tell them of any of this."
"First, we'll deal with the slugs, we'll figure the rest out later." Tsunade then brought Naruto to the Senju compound where she kept the scroll, she got Naruto to sign his name and then she summoned a small Katsuya. She told that Katsuya to reverse summon the two of them to the home of the slugs. They arrived in the Shikkotsu Forest where the slugs live and they quickly went to see Katsuya, as she was currently in charge of the clan.
"Ah, Tsunade-sama, I see you have brought our newest summoner, is he your new apprentice?" Katsuya asked.
"It is a little more complicated than that Katsuya-sama." Naruto began, "you see I have been sent by Saiken, the six tails."
At this Katsuya gasped. "Are you the Jinchuuriki to Saiken-sama?" Katsuya asked.
'You may tell the slug of our link, she might already know.' Kurama said.
"Do you know of the Jinchuuriki link Katsuya-sama?" Naruto asked, he received a negative and set about explaining the nature of the link to the massive slug. "So Saiken sent me to ask of your help, the bijuu want to be in charge of their contracts once again, but due to us Jinchuuriki they cannot reach them. They want all nine of us to sign all of their contracts, but we are not going to summon any summons other than those our bijuu grant us. The main reason we are all to sign multiple contracts is because we need access to sage mode and since we all may not find the contracts to our set bijuu we may not access sage mode in time. You see we have a weakness to sage mode as our bijuu's chakra is forced away from sage chakra."
"I see, well if Saiken-sama asks of it, it will be done. We will hold you to the agreement, only the Jinchuuriki to Saiken-sama, Tsunade and her apprentice may summon our clan."
"Thank you Katsuya-sama, I will inform the others." Naruto quickly entered the mind scape and told the other Jinchuuriki and bijuu of this agreement. He returned to see Tsunade and Katsuya chatting about the implications of the contract, it would not affect the relationship between the two of them.
"Katsuya-sama, they have been informed, the Jinchuuriki to Saiken is named Utakata." Naruto informed. "He doesn't use acid jutsu much but is well versed in suiton ninjutsu, he is particularly good at using what he calls bubble ninjutsu."
"Thank you for this information, how will the contract get to them?" Katsuya asked.
"I don't know, I don't think they can sign it in the mindscape. Is there any way to meet them in an assigned location?" Naruto asked.
"You would have to do so yourself, since you are technically not a summoner, I will allow you to summon myself to hand the contract to the other Jinchuuriki."
"Thank you Katsuya-sama, I think we should leave now." Naruto said. They left and Tsunade handed the summoning scroll to Katsuya, they returned to the Hokage's tower and went to Tsunade's office.
"Is there any way you could send me to the other nations on diplomatic trips with you, you must have to go on a trip to the sand to finalise their surrender, may I come with you to give Garra the scroll."
"Yes Naruto." Tsunade replied, "I can also send you on missions near some of the other villages, it will be easier from then on as they can pass the scroll out easily from then on, I will see what I can do regarding Gai and Kakashi's contracts. I don't think they're family contracts like the apes of the Sarutobi clan but the two of them will be protective of them. The Sarutobi clan is another matter, I may be able to sort something out but it will be difficult."
"Thank you." Naruto said then he left the room. He went to the mind scape and told the others, Roshi said he might be able to meet up with Utakata to see them on the journey to sand, they agreed to stay in the area so that they would be able to meet them on the diplomatic trip. Now that they had sorted that out they had to figure out how to get the other contracts as many people kept their contracts as close guarded secrets. If they could convince them to talk to the boss summons of the contract, then they could simply ask them about the contract and do it in secret. For the most part neither Kakashi nor Gai used the summons much and someone else having the contract wouldn't affect them much but when it came to the Sarutobi clan things would be much harder.
They would sort that out soon though, the diplomatic trip to sand was coming up and it would be easier to send the four contracts at once, that way Roshi, Utakata and Garra would have their contracts. Then one of them would be able to send the turtle contract to Yagura, maybe Utakata who had been considering returning to the village. It not then they would have to sort more diplomatic trips. Currently they had brought Gai into the office, well Tsunade had. The Jonin was unaware of Naruto's involvement in this and would be kept in the dark as much as possible, she was just going to ask that he summon the boss of the contract in a training field then Naruto and her could explain the situation, they would then do the same for Kakashi.
"Gai I must speak with the Boss summon of the Turtle clan in private, could you summon him?" Tsunade asked.
"Yosh, Tsunade-sama I would be glad to, is there anywhere for me to summon the boss." Gai replied, the two went to a training field and Naruto followed them using stealth learned throughout the years. They made it to the training field and Gai summoned the boss. The boss summon for the turtles and tortoises was a giant green tortoise, it stood at nearly the same height as Gamabunta and was named Kameoki.
"Thank you Gai." Tsunade said.
"Gai, why have you brought me here?" The large tortoise asked.
"It was I who asked for your presence Kameoki-sama. I have to talk with you regarding Isobu." Tsunade said causing the Tortoise's eyes to widen.
"Gai, leave us, this matter is not for you to hear yet." Kameoki said. Gai left immediately. "How do you know of that name, they all kept their names to themselves except that Tanuki, how do you know?"
"One of the Jinchuuriki has informed me, he has a message from the three tails." Tsunade said.
"Isobu-sama's Jinchuuriki's is here?" The tortoise asked.
"No, Kameoki-sama." Naruto said, "the privacy seals are up Tsunade-sama, not even Zetsu can get in here." He came out of the trees surprising the boss summon. "I am Naruto Uzumaki Jinchuuriki of the nine-tailed fox." Naruto then explained the situation to the boss summon.
"Very well, I agree with this situation, Gai keeps the contract with us and doesn't summon on a regular basis, as long as Isobu-sama's Jinchuuriki is our actual summoner we shall agree to these terms. I hope you understand though that all the various sage modes have different abilities. No one has ever attempted to be a sage to multiple contracts, very few even make it to sage level." With that Naruto signed the contract and agreed to only summon the contract holder, Ningame, to give the contract to his fellow Jinchuuriki.
They then moved on to talking with Kakashi about the dog summons and did the same thing, Kakashi was a bit more curious but once he heard it was involved in an S-class secret he quickly quietened. The boss for the dog summons was a large border collie which looked rather confused but upon hearing the name Shukaku told Kakashi to leave, they then went on to explain the situation like they had with Kameoki, the bosses name was Torikki.
"So Torikki-sama, do you agree to the deal?" Naruto asked.
"I do, I will contact the wolf, tanuki and racoon clans, though we do not always get along we do keep in contact, I do understand though that the wolf contract is currently in possession of the Inuzuka clan of Konoha here, they might find it suspicious that names will be added to their scroll." Naruto then signed the scroll and they now tried to figure out some way to get the Sarutobi clan to summon Enma the boss of the apes.
"Is there anything in the old mans will about the ape clan?" Naruto asked, "if there is we can ask Enma after that." As it turned out Asuma was to receive the clan summoning contract, Tsunade asked to see the monkey king regarding some private matters. Asuma agreed and they had an audience with the monkey king. Asuma left at Tsunade's request.
"Hello Enma-sama, it has been a long time." Tsunade said.
"Tsunade, it has been a long time, so you are the Hokage now." Enma said.
"Yes, that is not why I have asked to speak with you, I have come to convey the will of Son Goku." At this Enma became very serious.
"What were his words and how did you receive them?" The aged monkey asked.
"That would be because of me," Naruto said appearing out of the shadows of the room, "You see there exists a bond between the Jinchuuriki, we can each talk to each other through this bond." Naruto continued his explanation and eventually got to the point where he said what the purpose was.
"I guess that can be arranged but only the Jinchuuriki of our boss may summon our kind, I assume the other summons had similar stipulations." Enma said after some thought, at Naruto's nod he spoke again, "though the Sarutobi's will not be too happy. They do keep the scroll with us though, they won't know until the young one, Konohamaru, signs it. That won't be for some time though."
"Thank you Enma-sama, though Jinchuuriki of Son is named Roshi. He can use Son's lava jutsu, he's a bit of a loner but he'll warm up to you pretty quickly." Naruto said causing Enma to smile slightly.
"Thank you, now sign the scroll," Enma said, he then took the scroll out and opened it up for him, "I will allow you to summon me to give the scroll to your brethren but the only other reason for me to come will be to teach you our clans sage jutsu."
"Thank you Enma-sama, I look forward to learning from you." Naruto said. He then left the two of them to figure out who else to bring with them, the two of them couldn't go alone, they would need a few more jonin or ANBU, but who could they trust. "Neko-neechan is in ANBU she would be a good choice and won't ask any questions, as for others why not bring the rookie nine and Gai's team, that would explain my reason for being there." Naruto said.
"That is a good idea, it also makes it easy as they are some of the most powerful jonin for protection, not that we'd need it, it also means that Akatsuki is unlikely to attack." Tsunade added. So, it was decided but before that could be decided Tsunade had to deal with the council, apparently the chunin promotions were never decided so the ranks needed to be given out.
"I'm pretty sure you will make chunin for what happened during the invasion Naruto-chan." At this Naruto pouted slightly before grinning. "Well if they made you Hokage, Baa-chan." Tsunade then threw the desk at him which he just barely dodged. "I guess that's what I'm going to call you from now on, Baa-chan."
"I will kill you, brat." She said and threw the nearest thing, which was her chair, at him. This time it hit and he flew through the wall. She then went to the council meeting where the promotions were decided, Tsunade nearly demanded that Naruto made chunin as not only did he defeat the sands Jinchuuriki but he also defeated the Hyuuga prodigy and did so with great skill. This would have earned most people the rank of jonin but Tsunade had to fight to get him raised to chunin as the elders thought he was getting too powerful.
In the end Naruto did get chunin, he along with Shikamaru earned the rank of chunin. Now she informed them of the mission she would be giving the rookie nine and Gai's team, she said this was in part due to the rise in the criminal organisation Akatsuki. She also said that this would help give them experience in important missions, since the mission was important but the jonin would take care of any major threat.
The council was opposed to taking such a large group she reminded them that this would be considered hostile territory until the treaty was signed. At this many of the clans were opposed to sending their children to a warzone but Tsunade informed them that the presence of the jonin should prevent attack. It was eventually agreed upon the mission but at the insistence of some jonin or ANBU. Tsunade agreed and said she would bring Neko and Anko Mitarashi. After some deliberation, it was agreed upon and the team was finally selected. The mission was going to happen in a three days' time and the teams were all informed, they were all excited. When the time came, they were all anxiously waiting by the gate for the Hokage, they were chatting happily until Sauske noticed the chunin vests on both Naruto and Shikamaru.
"Where did you get those vests?" He asked.
"We got them from the Hokage after our promotion." Naruto replied.
"You made chunin?" Sauske asked shocked and angry that the supposed idiot earned chunin before him.
"Yeah, he beat both his opponents and saved the village from a rampaging bijuu, I'm surprised he didn't make jonin for such a feat, it is not something many could do. He was also the one who informed us of the invasion, it may have succeeded if not for him." Kurenai said.
Sauske seethed slightly at the achievements he had, why was he so strong when he wasn't an avenger. Naruto knew nothing of his pain, he had to kill his brother, so why was he so weak?
"Anyway, Baa-chan's here now so-" Naruto was cut off by a punch to the back of his head from the aforementioned Kage.
"Don't call me that brat!" said the Hokage. "Now are we all her?"
She asked the surrounding genin, chunin and jonin. "Yes Tsunade-sama." Kurenai said, she then looked at Naruto's downed form, "is he ok Lady Tsunade?" She then asked.
"He'll be fine, now let's get a move on." Tsunade said, they left the village and began their journey to the village hidden in the sand. They were traveling slowly as Tsunade said they were in no rush while secretly trying to delay the trip due to the large amount of paperwork being Hokage gave her. Naruto heard her grumbling about paperwork and developed the idea for how to prank the old woman. Paperwork cloning. Suddenly around the world, and on the Olympian world all of the Gods, Kages and other world leaders felt a shiver go up their spine and felt that someone had just doomed them all.
Throughout the trip nothing interesting happened except when a foolish group of bandits decided to attack them, they lasted a total of one second before their death. After that everyone relaxed slightly, Naruto and Tsunade realised that the two Jinchuuriki hadn't met up with them yet, when Naruto asked about it in the mindscape he found that their paths would cross at some point during the next day. Neither Tsunade or Naruto had told the others of the other part of the mission yet.
When the next day came Naruto was quite nervous which his sisters noticed, Anko brought him to the back of the group to talk to him. "What's wrong otouto?" She asked.
"Nothing neechan, why is something wrong?" Naruto asked with false innocence.
"Don't give me that gaki, you look nervous about something, now what is it?" Anko asked.
"I'm sorry, I can't say nee-chan. Hokage's orders, it's an S-class secret" Naruto replied confusing Anko. She left him alone but she and his other sisters sent him glances every few minutes, they looked worried. They were suddenly stopped by the jonin and Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, there are two immensely powerful chakra sources ahead of us. Both are easily Kage level." Kakashi said.
"Naruto send a clone, if it is them, you may go and do your mission. If it is Akatsuki, then we will avoid them, if they come after us we kill them. They would be fools to attack so many powerful ninjas." Tsunade said, this confused everyone except Naruto who sent a clone, he also opened the connection to make sure it wasn't a trap.
After a few minutes of silence, Naruto blinked and spoke up, "it's them." He got up to go but was stopped by Anko.
"Where are you going?" She asked with worry in her voice.
"I have a mission to do." He replied evenly. He tried to get past her but was stopped again.
"What is it, because I can feel the power from those two signatures and they are very powerful, so what business do you, a chunin, have with someone so powerful?"
She asked. "That," Tsunade interrupted, "is a triple S class secret. The mission Naruto is currently on is triple S rank and a complete secret. No one is to know anything about this mission, as a matter of fact if any of you so much as mention that this occurred you will be executed." She finished earning shocked looks from everyone.
"You can't send a chunin on a triple S-class mission, what are you thinking? What is the mission?" Anko asked.
"It is an important mission that only Naruto can complete, and the mission itself will never be listed in any way, legally, this mission to sand went without any interruptions." Tsunade said.
"What! What is the nature if this mission and why is Naruto the only one capable of doing it? Is this because of what he is? Do you think he's expendable because of-?" Anko was interrupted by Tsunade.
"What Naruto is, is a ninja of konohagakure no sato, anything other than that is an S-class secret, remember there are genin and people who do not know that particular secret Jonin Mitarashi. Now let Naruto do his mission."
"No! he-" Anko began but Naruto stopped her.
"Nee-chan, calm down. Nothing bad will happen, this is a simple mission. I won't be hurt, I'll be back soon but it is a mission of great importance, just let me do it, I'll be quick."
"But-" She began again.
"It won't take any more than an hour, I'll be back by then. I'll even leave a clone for you if you want, this is something I have to do." Naruto said he then turned in the direction of the chakra signatures and began tree hopping in that direction.
"This mission is something he has to do, it does have to do with his Kaa-chan. It is the reason why I brought so many of you, you aren't here to protect me, you're here to protect him in case Akatsuki show up again."
"Excuse me Hokage-sama, but what is Akatsuki exactly?" Sakura asked.
"Akatsuki is a group of S-class missing nin, they are currently trying to hunt down another group of people, Naruto is one of these people. Why they are looking for Naruto we don't exactly know but we think that they are building a weapon, they need Naruto to power it as he has a rather special type of chakra, and a large amount of it. What we do know is that Naruto will die if they use him like this." Tsunade said.
"Do you know anyone in this organisation?" Shino suddenly asked.
"Yes, we know some of their members, there was recently a security breach involving two of them, Hoshigaki Kisame and Uchiha Itachi." At this Sauske's eyes widened slightly, "yes, that is the reason for him being there Sauske."
"But how many of them are there?" Ino asked.
"We don't have exact numbers but our intelligence suggests either ten or twelve." Tsunade said causing many of the genin look confused at the threat of such a small number. "You may laugh at that but all of them are either at my level or above, together the ten of them might be able to destroy a village. That is not the worst of it though, their leader is not only stronger than the rest of them, but we manged to find that he beat all of them with ease. Orochimaru was also part of this organisation."
This caused all of the ninja to pale and fear for Naruto's fate, he was being hunted down by an organisation like that.
(With Naruto)
Naruto had made it to the two other Jinchuuriki, he jumped down to the clearing they were sitting in. He then smiled and went over to the two of them, they grinned back at him and Roshi went over and patted him on the head.
"Hey otouto, how's it going?" Roshi said.
"Fine, how are you?" Naruto replied.
"Good, that's quite the group you're with there, why do you have so many for the mission." Roshi asked.
"It's a cover up for the real mission, make it look like it's for a whole group of genin and chunin." Naruto replied.
"Good idea, now I think we should get down to business. How are we doing this?" Roshi asked. Naruto then started summoning, first he summoned Enma.
"So, is this the Jinchuuriki to Son Goku-sama?" The ape asked.
"Yes, this is Roshi, and Utakata Jinchuuriki to Saiken the six tails." Naruto replied, they each bowed to each other showing respect. They each signed the contract in blood and the monkey king left. Next Naruto summoned Katsuya.
"Is this the Jinchuuriki to Saiken-sama?" She asked.
"Yes, Utakata is, Roshi is the four tails, Son Goku's Jinchuuriki." Again, they both signed their contract and Katsuya left. The next summons for the dogs and the turtles each had their contracts signed, each were slightly disappointed that their true summoner wasn't there but had their contracts signed none the less. After all of that Naruto looked to his two brothers and they chatted about unimportant things, they were just happy to be able to talk in the real world.
Eventually Naruto said that he would have to go soon. He thanked the two of them and watched them leave, he turned and went back to his group. He was on his way back but when he was a few minutes from their camp he was tackled by a purple blur.
"Anko-neechan, what are you doing?" Naruto asked.
"Well," she said and scratched the back of her head nervously, "your time was up so I was coming to get you."
"Sorry, but I was only a few minutes late nee-chan." Naruto said. They made their way to the camp and Naruto went up to Tsunade and said, "mission completed without any complications." She sighed and everyone eyed him slightly confused, they decided that they would continue to travel, over the next few days they made it back to the hidden sand.
(On Olympus)
Zeus was worried, after what Artemis had told him about the power of the bijuu he was very nervous, he didn't know if they could be trusted with such power. He truly was paranoid about what would happen, he was confused about what to do. On the one side, his son was one of them but on the other could he really trust his family to not try to overthrow him. He was sure he could trust his son as he was just that, his son. The others, he wasn't sure. It wasn't like there hadn't been demi-gods to them before, but he was quite worried though.
There was also the problem of his wife's other children, what should he do about that. It would be too hypocritical to do what she did, though he was tempted, but he would trust his wife's children for now. It was the others he didn't trust, especially his brother's children they would be problems. He never did trust his brothers very much and became paranoid over everything they did. He would see what happened when they showed up, then he would decide their fates.
