Adopted and revised story. Some ninja just get one sensei, and if they're lucky they can get two. Naruto is given ten, a group called the Espada. Armed with training and skills beyond Konoha's understanding, he will take the world by storm, but whose side is he really on?

In Konoha there is said to be a Ramen Bar that connects the living and the dead. Many say that it is a rumour, few say its true. But no one that has been there is able deny one simple fact, Uzumaki Naruto, Jinchuriki of the Kyuubi no Kitsune was supposedly killed at the age of five, so how is it that he is the one running the Ramen Bar? (Up for adoption!)

Part 1 of 2. Naruto is dead. He defeated Tobi and saved Sasuke, but will not live to see the results... or so it seems. Along with Kurama, he is sent to the Soul Society where he will meet new allies, face new enemies, and gain new powers with one goal in mind: To go back home. NO PAIRINGS IN THIS STORY! NO EXCEPTIONS!
