What if Naruto met the Kyuubi during the Land of Waves? What if it was all a big misunderstanding? Watch as Naruto is able to tap into the power sealed inside of him on the day of his birth and the following events. Starts after the graduation. Better summary inside. Stronger Naruto (but realistic progression). NaruHina and others. Title becomes more apparent later in the story.

AU Zelink: "I will protect you for as long as I have too. I will run where you need to run, I will hide wherever you need to hide, and I will fight anyone you need to fight. I swear on these words and if I break them, may Death drag me down himself."
