Disclaimer: I don't own either Ronin Warriors or Naruto… say how much do you think it will cost?

Hakuryuken, Itachi entered Konoha during the month interval in this story. And about that... Itachi isn't as evil as everyone makes him out to be, I revealed it after the wave mission. Itachi has to stay hidden for awhile then again he doe have the best armor for that. Sarutobi wanted to step down and retire again, again it will be explained. Currently being taken care of by Inuzukas Because Naruto nor Jayaiya was in town when Ryo gave it to Sarutobi. For a little while no... After an event yes.

Chapter 24: Hidden from View, Under Plain Sight…

In another room…

"Uncle did you see that coming?" Neji asked.

"No I did not. Let's keep spying." Hiashi stated as they both turned their eyes to Kakashi's room.

In Kakashi's room…

"Lie to you?" Sarutobi asked in shock.

"About Naruto, why did you lie to me about him?" Kakashi asked in grief.

"I never lied to you about him he isn't the beast…" Sarutobi started to say.

"About who he is, I just realized on my way here who is his father. If you don't come clean I might start a little rumor." Kakashi stated as he looked at the aged Hokage.

"Fine I did it to protect him from his father's enemies, and you were too young to take care of him." Sarutobi stated.

"And after I was old enough?" Kakashi asked.

"You had too many enemies yourself." Sarutobi retorted.

"And after I started to belittle him?" Kakashi stated with a bit of anger.

"I thought you would be in shock." Sarutobi stated with a frown.

"Too late for that… I just wish I knew why you never told me Sensei's kid was still alive, besides the obvious charade." Kakashi stated.

"Charade?" Sarutobi asked out of anger.

"If you truly cared about his well being you wouldn't have let it get that far, you kept pushing aside the facts till they were buried, if you don't tell him soon I will." Kakashi shouted. "Enough of the hatred, if people like me can't see the image think about those that hate Sensei; they will see him as Sensei." Kakashi asked a little quieter.

"I know… I blinded myself as you say I have, but your actions might dispel a few minds not the entire village." Sarutobi stated.

"I figured a way around it… get rid of the council, they ordered the death of a ninja without warrant." Kakashi stated as he fell asleep.

"I see…" Sarutobi smiled as he left the room.

In the other room…

"I see." Hiashi stated with a Narutoish grin.

"Uncle that's creepy." Neji stated as he stood up. "Any ways there is something on the tower." Neji preceded to leave the hospital.

In the Hokage's office…

"You called us in here?" Himura asked.

"Yes I did." Sarutobi stated.

"And what do you want us to talk about?" Koharu asked.

"Naruto." Sarutobi stated very calmly.

"What about him?" Danzo asked as he looked up.

"I gained a report that states you ordered a death with out warrant." Sarutobi stated as he calmly rose from his seat.

"And who gave you that report?" Koharu asked as she backed up.

"Classified. And you know the punishment for that crime?" Sarutobi asked as he walked around his desk. "Naruto survived your little attempt."

"So Kakashi died." Himura stated wondering who spilled.

"No he still alive, but you three are under arrest for the attempt to kill an active Ninja without warrant. Seize them and anything they have will go to those in their wills anything over the amounts listed goes to the target as per the law." Sarutobi stated to the Ambu that came in to haul them to their prison.

"You will not get away with this…" Danzo shouted but stopped when a three steel claw erupted though him.

"I had enough of your missions to try to kill me." Sai stated as he pulled his claw out of Danzo.

"Sai stand down." Sarutobi ordered.

"Sir, I was following the law." Sai stated as he looked at the other two. "Now they can't be freed by Danzo's men."

"You traitor." Koharu shouted at Sai.

"I was betrayed first, and how is it betrayal if you thought you couldn't be touched?" Sai asked as he dispelled the armor. "I will take my punishment." Sai stated.

"No if what you say is true then you just saved me some time." Sarutobi stated as he looked at the Ambu. "Take them away and take his body to the morgue."

On the roof…

"Byakugan!" Neji stated as he activated his bloodline in his armor. 'The disturbance is right over here.' Neji walked over to the spot. "Uncle, do you see anything wrong in this spot?"

"No… but if you do than perhaps it has to do with your armor?" Hiashi asked as he looked at the spot Neji was near.

"Hmmm…" Neji thought for a few moments, before poking the spot.

'Nin.' Itachi thought as the illusion fell. "Thank you for waking me up." Itachi stated as he stood up. "We need go see Sarutobi." Itachi stated as he stood up and leaned over the side of the building. "Coming?"

Inside the office…

"Hokage-sama, long time, no see." Itachi stated as he walked in from the window. "How is my little brother?"

"He still thinks you did it on you own violation." Sarutobi stated. "But now he has Orochimaru's curse seal."

"Damn that means I can't talk to him." Itachi stated as he dispelled his armor much to the shock of Neji and Hiashi.

"You're an S-rank criminal." Neji stated as he backed up.

"Not really, I killed my clan under orders for their plan to over throw the village." Itachi stated. "But I didn't complete the mission I left two alive." Itachi stated much to the confusion of Sarutobi.

"Who else of your clan is still alive?" Sarutobi asked.

"The Nidame Mizukage, Madara Uchiha." Itachi stated as he looked out the window. "Even with the armor I couldn't kill them all in one night." Itachi stated as he looked at Sarutobi.

"I see. So he didn't die at that location." Sarutobi stated as he looked at some papers. "Use your armors illusions to give yourself some cover till I can come up with a plausible reason for your return." Sarutobi ordered as the door was knocked on. "Come in." Sarutobi stated as Itachi replaced his armor.

"Ah, you found another two, and we bring two with us." Choza stated. "If it wasn't for Ino we would be stuck trying to free Choji."

"Wait Choji was incased in a rock right?" Sarutobi asked.

"Yeah how did you know?" Choza asked.

"Before Ino left the group she was in she stated that only she could cut the rock." Sarutobi stated as he looked at Ino who was red. "And it looks like she was right."

"I will take my leave." Itachi stated as he turned to leave the office. "The only reason I'm not taking it off right now, is the fact that some people will react wrong."

"Don't mind him, he had a hard life before today." Sarutobi stated as he waved them all out of his office.

In some off skirt of a town…

"Are you sure Tsunade would be glad to see you?" Kabuto asked as he looked at Orochimaru's body.

"I figured that she might be." Orochimaru stated before coughing badly. "Damn poison."

"I tried to make anti-venom but it keeps changing every four seconds." Kabuto stated as they entered the town.

Inside the town…

"You're telling me Sensei wants me to take over for a few years?" Tsunade asked. "Why?"

"Simple he wants to rest." Jaraiya stated.

"I think this is boring why couldn't we stop for clothing?" Naruto asked as he leaned back. "How about a game?"

"What type?" Tsunade asked.

"Poker, if I win you come take over the village, but if I lose… Jaraiya will write a contract saying he will no longer peep on women." Naruto stated as he leaned forward.

"I'm game, if I lose to you brat I will give this to you as well." Tsunade stated as she dangled a necklace in front of Naruto.

A/N: Please don't pick at my grammer if Spell checker doesn't catch it, it's correct. and here's a good question who wins the game of poker?
