Naruto the Hidden Genius of the Leaf
Chapter 21
Note: I am in need of more jutsus of all kinds as I don't know that many jutsus at the moment, the more I know the more I can make my Naruto fanfictions all the better
It has been two weeks since Kushina became Hokage and a lot has happened since then
Firstly the entire Civilian Counsel was replaced with those who didn't mistreat Naruto and were also competent enough to not be a burden Kushina or the shinobi counsel with their complaints or whining. This included Tenten's father who ran a weapon shop and Old Man Techi who ran Ichikachu Ramen
Secondly Ichikachu Ramen relocated into a larger building as they now had way more customers. Also thanks to the changes made by the new civilian counsel all the store owners were able to make more money as a large number of the taxes the old counsel made were abolished
Third word got around that Kushina was alive and had become the fifth Hokage and caused quite a stir in the Elemental Nations
Lastly Kushina's revisions boltered Kohona's economy as more money was available to spend, again all thanks to the fact that all the unnecessary taxes were abolished
It was during this time that Naruto decided to go ahead and get ready to make an attempt to combine his fuinjutsu based Blood Clone with the Impure World Resurrection Jutsu to bring back Dan Kato and Nawaki Senju so Tsunade could say goodby to them
"So Naruto you really think this is going to work?" asked Tsunade as some of Naruto's Shadow Clones brought over the cloned bodies of the two she lost so long ago
"It should" replied Naruto "But I honestly have no idea if it will"
Those few present noted that Naruto glancing over to where the covered body of a clone of his father was laying on the ground not to far away. This told them how he desperately wanted to see his father and get to know him
"Well Naruto, everything appears to be in order" said Kushina
"Good, now Tsunade I have to tell you that if this works they'll only stay for a short time, not to mention they're going to be as old as when they died in the first place" said Naruto
"That's fine Naruto" said Tsunade "Just tell me how long will it last"
"With me using the jutsu" replied Naruto "As long as I want really, but I'm not going to hold it for no more than three days. There are other things I need to get ready for after we're done here afterall"
"I understand Naruto, getting ready for that test to see if you are able to summon a dragon companion, as well as your wedding are indeed more important than keeping my loved ones from their rest" said Tsunade sadly
Naruto quickly began preforming the needed handseals before crying out "Impure World Resurrection!" and slamming his hands onto the ground
Suddenly the two cloned bodies of Dan and Nawaki were covered in a ghostly veil that condensed more and more, making impossible to see what was going on to the two bodies. As this was happening a bright radiant column of light suddenly slammed down upon Minato's cloned body
"What in the world is going on!?" cried Naruto
Minato's body began lifting off of the ground and swirls of energy began to go around it, causing a change to occur
"Pure Heavenly Revival!" calls out a voice from everywhere and no where
And with a massive flash of light the strange light is gone, leaving a bewildered and very much alive Minato Namazaki standing there in place of the light. Not to mention he was at the age that he would have been at if he hadn't died
"Dad?" asked Naruto in a small voice
Minato gave a small smile and wave before being glomped by a very emotional Kushina
"Don't you ever do anything like that ever again!" cried Kuahina who couldn't believe her husband was alive again
"I don't understand, I thought I was going to have to confront the death god to get you back" said Naruto
"Ah about that" said Minato "A power far greater than death ordered him to let me move on, and it's a good thing it did"
"Why?" asked a teary eyed Kakashi
"Because I was able to discover certain things" answered Minato "Some very important things"
"Like what?" asked Kakashi
"Well it appears as though Obito isn't dead, he somehow ended up in the clutches of Madara Uchiha who tried to break him and have him take over his plans before he finally died" explained Minato seriously "However he failed to break Obito's mind, but before he died a rouge Uchiha came to him and took Obito's place. This same Uchiha was the one who caused the mess with the Kyuubi"
"Wait, Madara Uchiha is alive!?" asked Tsunade in shock
"Not anymore, but there is a plan to bring him back eventually" answered Minato
"I can't believe Obito is alive after all this time" said Kakashi
"Me either, but when I couldn't find him in the afterlife I went looking for him and that's how I found out about his fate" said Minato "I've watched everything that's been going on, and I have to say I'm greatly disappointed in the village as a whole. And what you've done to them since coming back and taking the hat Kushina, I say they had it coming to them"
"Hmph, treating our son the way they did, they're lucky I didn't do worse" said Kushina
"I agree, and congrats for reaching your dream like I did" said Minato with a smile
"But what happens now?" asked Kakashi "We can't have two Hokages, can we?"
"Seeing how we're married, I say we can both share the burden" said Minato "It was both our dream after all"
"I like that idea, that way neither one of us is overwhelmed by the workload" agreed Kushina
"Heh, I'm just glad you're back with us dad" said Naruto "But um... we were in the middle of something when you were unexpectedly revived"
"Ah that's right!" cried Tsunade who looked over to where the cloned bodies of Dan and Nawaki were
Everyone looked over and saw that during the commotion the two had been brought back with Naruto's Impure World Resurrection Jutsu and had been sitting there gobsmacked by what was going on
"Dan, Nawaki, are you there?" asked Tsunade carefully
"Sis, you've gotten old" said Nawaki
"Baka!" cried Tsunade as she nailed her brother in the back of the head before grabbing him up in a tight hug
"Ga! Can't breath!" cried Nawaki
"Care to explain what's going on? Last I knew I died" asked Dan
"I combined my special fuinjutsu based Blood Clone Jutsu, and the Impure World Resurrection Jutsu to temporally bring you two back so Tsunade could properly say goodbye to you" explained Naruto "I was planning on using it on my father if it worked, but seeing how a higher power just fully revived him I don't need to do that anymore"
"How long will we stay here among the living?" asked Dan
"I can keep the jutsu going for a long long time, but I plan on ending it in three days" answered Naruto "This is just to say goodbye, not be among the living again"
"But I'm not dead!" cried Nawaki
"Denial" whispered Minato "Poor kid died so suddenly that he doesn't even register he died in a massive explosion"
"Nawaki, I'm sorry but you died the day after I gave you grandfather's crystal, why do you think I'm so much older than the last time you saw me?" explained Tsunade carefully to her brother
"But that's not fair!" cried Nawaki "I was supposed to become Hokage like grandpa!"
"I know, it was Dan's dream as well, but others have taken up the mantel" said Tsunade
"But, but, but..." said Nawaki before he broke down and started crying
"Tsunade, I'm sorry I left you the way I did" apologized Dan as he came over to her and hugged her
"I know Dan, losing you and Nawaki was more than I could handle for a long time" said Tsunade "I even ignored the few living relatives I still had left and ran away from my problems. At least until Kushina Uzumaki came into my life and knocked some sense into me, literally"
"Well I'm glad you're back to your old self" said Dan
"I am as well, but there is one thing I've wanted for years, and now I have a chance to have it" said Tsunade
"What's that?" asked Dan
"To raise a child" said Tsunade
Dan sputtered in shock at this and asked "But, how can that work? Doesn't this body practically make me a zombie?"
"Not entirely" said Naruto "I used a special Blood Clone as the medium to bring you back to life, and with the special property those clones have. You and Tsunade could indeed have a child before you go back to the afterlife"
Dan just blushes hard at this and glances at Tsunade who also has a blush, seeing how they never had a chance to "go at it" before he died
"That's all and good, but what about me?" asked Nawaki "I'm no where near ready to move on, I had my entire life ahead of me"
"Sorry kid, but unless a higher power intervenes, I suggest you get your things in order before I release you back to the afterlife" said Naruto "I have no plans on keeping you around longer than I intend to, but you can see me and Hinata's wedding before I send you back"
"But..." said Nawaki
"Look Nawaki I know it's hard to accept what happened to you, I had a very hard time when I learned of your death and saw your body" said Tsunade "But it's not up to any of us if you'll be brought fully back or not, spend the time you have now with what family you have"
"Fine..." slumped Nawaki
(Line Break)
It was quite a shock for the village when Minato's resurrection was made known to them as well as how he was brought back to life. The counsel however was also told about Naruto's successful application of his fuinjutsu based Blood Clone Jutsu and Impure World Resurrection Jutsu on Dan and Nawaki. Much to their further shock as they had no idea Naruto was able to preform such an act, but before they could ask if he could bring back anyone else Kushina said that it was a forbidden technique and both her and Minato had to approve before they even ask Naruto if he would do it
Minato was reinstated as the Fourth Hokage and shared the responsibility of running the village with Kushina so that they had more time to themselves and spend with their loved ones
(Line Break)
Jiraiya had immediately came back to Kohona when he got word that his favorite student was brought back by higher powers and headed straight to the Hokage's Office to see if it was true
"Ah Jiraiya I knew you'd be back as soon as you heard the good news" greeted Kushina as she finished the paperwork on her desk
"So it's true? Minato is alive again?" asked Jiriya with hope
"Yes he is, it was a miracle that he was a powerful shaft of light appeared and used a Blood Clone Naruto had made of him to resurrect him" answered Kushina "Naruto was going to try to bring him back like how he did Dan and Nawaki after he found that combining the two jutsus worked or not. But he didn't need to obviously"
"So where is he now?" asked Jiraiya
"Teaching Naruto his signature move, the Flying Thunder God" answered Kushina nonchalantly
"Seriously?!" asked Jiraiya in surprise
"Well Naruto already knows the Rasengan, so it's the only other thing Minato has to teach him. Naruto last I checked wasn't fast enough to use it yet, so that's what they've been working on so far" replied Kushina
"Anything else I should know?" asked Jiraiya
"Not right now, but there are somethings that are needed to be discussed latter tonight now that you're here" answered Kushina
"What do you mean by that?" asked Jiraiya
"Minato wasn't just sitting around in the afterlife doing nothing you know, he found out about some important things before being brought back" explained Kushina "He also saw how the village treated Naruto and isn't to happy about that, of course I already dealt with that so he doesn't have to. The village is still reeling from the effects of both of us being less than pleased with how our son was treated"
"I can imagine, they realized their mistake during Naruto's Chunin Exam match against Neji from what I heard" said Jiraiya
"Yes well, make yourself comfortable back at home until latter" said Kushina "Minato has a lot to tell us, we just were waiting for you to get back"
"Thanks I will" said Jiraiya before going out the window and headed over to the Uzumaki Clan Compound
(Line Break)
Minato was happy to see Jiraiya again after so long, but not nearly as much as Jiraiya and the Toads that Jiraiya and Naruto summoned to let them know he was alive again
"Urk, can you all please get off me!" cried a very buried Minato from under all the toads
"Sorry my boy, but I thought we'd lost you forever" said Pa as he and the other toads got off of Minato
"How is it that you're alive anyway? I thought the Death God had your soul" asked Jiraiya
"A higher power ordered him to let my soul go free" answered Minato "They were also the one who brought me back to life"
"So what was it that you found on the other side?" asked Jiraiya
"I'll tell you later when the rest of the Shinobi Counsel gets here for a private meeting" answered Minato "That way I don't have to repeat myself"
"Ah makes sense" agreed Jiraiya
"Am I going to be there?" asked Naruto
"Yes Naruto you'll need to learn how to handle these types of meetings if you want to be Hokage yourself someday, plus some of the things I need to say pertain to you specifically due to Kurama being sealed into your gut" answered Minato solemnly
"Well that's just great, hope it's good news then" said Naruto as he crossed his arms "Having Kurama inside me has been fine for the most part, but I'd like to set him free eventually seeing there is no need to keep him sealed away"
"I agree with that Naruto, but right now we need to focus on other things" agreed Minato
"So when will they be here?" asked Naruto
"They'll be here for dinner, then the meeting will take place afterwords" answered Kushina
"Oh, alright then I'll get back to my speed training" said Naruto before running off
"He's going to go far" said Minato
"I know he is" agreed Kushina
"He'll outshine us all someday" added Jiraiya "There is no doubt in my mind about that"
Note: That's it for this chapter, tell me in the reviews if I should bring Nawaki back from the dead fully or not. I'm also putting up my first poll for this as well so look for it on my profile page
