Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Naruto was headed back to Konoha. It had been almost a year, but Naruto wasn't gonna stay. He would enter the village, send the message to the Hokage, and leave. His presence in the village will be short lived and hidden.

Naruto ran at full speed, which even Dragon was trying hard to keep up. Naruto ran so quickly, he couldn't see the wall right in front of him. And in reflex, Naruto covered his form in the defence fury jutsu. He created a hole into the wall, and tumbled right into a few trees.

Within minutes, a shinobi came to investigate.

"Maaan, you sure got slow not having practice running after me."

The shinobi then recognized the short body and blonde hair. The slightly raspy yet childish voice. He brought out a hand.

"Naruto? Konoha's Wind?"

"YUP, thats me!" Naruto said as he used the help of the shinobi to get up.

"Can I have your autograph!"

"Huh?"

"We've heard all your stories. Your legends in Suna, how you brought Tsunade back after defeating her in Medical Arts. How you gained the alliance of the Land of Lightning. You're a legend here! We were wrong to hate you. You are the ideal shinobi!"

"Nah, he's a joker with some sick moves and a way with words." Said Dragon ducking to get into the village through the hole Naruto made.

"CAN I GET YOUR AUTOGRAPH TOO!"

Naruto smiled and gave his autograph and Dragon did so too on the same sheet of paper with Naruto's signature.

The Shinobi rose it up to the sun like it was an offering to god. He shed a few tears of happiness. Then Naruto used a High level Uzumaki Clan jutsu.

"Rewind!" said Naruto, showing a finger to the hole. Before you knew it, the wall was fixed and not a single remnant of a 5 foot hole there.

The shinobi had his jaw open the whole time.

"You may go. Don't tell anybody about us, we aren't supposed to be here, I have my trust on you."

The shinobi looked so determined he looked like he would pull out a Yamaka clan technique to brainwash himself.

Naruto smiled. "What's your name?"

"Akiru Shima, Advanced Chunin!"

"Akiru, I'll remember that. When I get in some deep mess, I'll call on you, like a reliable backup!"

"H-Hai!"

Dragon smiled. Naruto would probably never call on him in his life, hell he might forget his name after a few hours. But Naruto really had a way with words.

"Well, see you around Akiru!"

Akiru nodded.

Naruto walked off. Dragon smiled at Akiru. But then Dragon realised he was wearing a mask, and stopped smiling.

Dragon let Naruto enjoy his stay, Dragon wanted to stay too. Naruto decided to stay here for a day or two.

Dragon made the report. He got an earful from the Hokage about doing things like that without his permission. But in the end, Hiruzen would have promoted him had he not been the highest position of ANBU.

Naruto didn't want to go home yet. He wanted to see someone, or a very special something made by a very special someone.

"TEUCHI! YOU'RE STILL HERE!"

"NARUTO MY BOY! WANT SOME RAMEN, WE'LL GIVE YOU OUR SPECIAL ON US, LARGE SIZE!"

"HELL YEAH!"

Naruto ran to the stall. In a flash, he was looking down at around 15 bowls of large Ramen. He slurped them all down like it was straight water. Naruto breathed out a cloud of steam and looked at Teuchi and Ayame who were smiling at the boy.

"You haven't slowed down in all these years have you. It's good business when you actually pay." Teuchi laughed hoarsely at Naruto.

"I'll give you something actually."

Naruto took out his shea butter, and scooped around a handful out and put it into a spare bowl. He gave the bowl to Teuchi.

"This is the world highest quality shea butter. What you are holding in your hand is probably 100,000 dollars right there."

"HUH!!!!!!"

Teuchi stared at the bowl like it was all his money. Naruto smiled.

"Least I could do. You can sell it, use it, throw it, or even put in the ramen if you want. It's yours!"

"Thank you so much Naruto!"

"No thank you. When I was hated by the villagers, you were like a shining light amongst the darkness. I would have probably released the kyuubi into the village by now."

"Oh no, we wouldn't want that, our stall would be ruined."

Naruto chuckled a bit at the statement. Teuchi didn't care for the village, he stayed just for the business, and Naruto. But Naruto didn't know the latter.

He paid a few dollars in tip, then after a long chat with Teuchi and Ayame, he left. It was only then, when a punch that whistled youthfulness flew past his face. Naruto's hands, who were enjoying the warmth of his pockets, started to shiver.

"I am Rock Lee, disciple of youthful Maito Gai! We saw you run into the wall and create a hole through 2 feet of stone while doing laps on our hands. Sensei said that you are a rival worthy of my skills. But you are a few years younger than me, so I will refrain from going all out."

'Gai's student huh?'

"YOU ARE THE YOUTHFUL GAI SENSEI'S YOUTHFUL STUDENT THE YOUTHFUL ROCK LEE. I WAS YOUTHFULLY HONORED TO FIGHT A SHINOBI OF YOUR YOUTHFUL CALIBER. BUT I AM THOROUGHLY DISAPPOINTED THAT YOUR ARROGANCE DOES NOT MAKE YOU TRY YOUR BEST AGAINST EVEN A CHILD LIKE ME. YOUR YOUTHFULNESS IS FLAWED AND INCOMPLETE. I SHALL FIX THIS WITH MY YOUTHFULNESS!"

Lee stared at the blonde child in front of him. 'Am I so arrogant and un-youthful?'

"Fight Me right here youthful shinobi!"

Naruto nodded, and flashed a smile. He pulled up his ANBU pants to reveal two seals on his ankles. He disabled the seals and he removed the hidden seals on his arms.

"What is that?"

"200 Ton weights each."

T-T-Two H-H-Hundred T-T-Tons?"

"Yup! That faceless freak made me wear these darned things. But since I have worn these, they have started to feel like aerogel. But now I've taken these off, and I feel like I'm in Zero-G."

Rock lee pulled his own weights out. And as he dropped them, Naruto ran forward and caught them.

'Fast!"

"We wouldn't want craters in a residential road would we?" Naruto said, tossing the weights up and catching them like they were plastic batons.

Naruto touched Rock Lee's shoulder, and they were in Training Ground 7.

"Let's Fight! Enough Stalling!" said Naruto.

"GO LEE!" Said Gai, who was watching from the shadows.

Lee nodded, and Naruto threw a single kunai up. They looked at the kunai, and as the point impaled the ground, they ran at each other.

From outside, they looked like beyblades, one white and another green. Moving around continuously and hitting each other only to get knocked back. Except these beyblades were CRAZY fast, and super sized. Plus, they packed one hell of a punch.

The battle slowed. Lee was on one side, panting and bruised, heavily tattered. Naruto looked like he rolled on the floor and got up, nothing on his clothes except some dirt.

'The boy is fast, I'm a jounin and I couldn't keep up with him. He already is on the brink of defeating my pupil. He might even pose a challenge to me.'

Naruto cracked a few knuckles.

"Warm up is over Lee, time to get serious, you can open the gates if you want." said Naruto.

"You know about the gates?"

"Yes, your chakra flows differently as you learn to master the gates. The more you open, the more abnormal they become. You have only learnt till the 6th I'm guessing."

"How do you know how my chakra flows? Are you a hyuuga?"

"Nope, I have you marked, consider it my secret move! Yours is the gates, but I figured it out, so that's your problem." Naruto smiled.

Lee smiled, and his body glowed with a green aura, his skin grew dark, and hair shot up.

"Max huh? Guess I'll go max as well! SHOGUN DEFENSE JUTSU!"

Naruto's form was covered with a golden chakra that took shape as samurai armour.

'When one condenses his or her chakra to at least 7500 Chakra-watts per cubic inch, the chakra changes color to a golden. How much chakra does this boy have? I'm not sure I can punch my way through a defense that strong.' thought Gai.

Naruto walked forward and then erupted into nothing. "This jutsu enhances all my abilities. Once I put this on me, my chakra regenerates around 1000x faster than normal. I'm actually already filled to the brim with chakra! It also makes me 1000x faster, which is faster than Madara's Sharingan can track."

Lee could feel Naruto running, anything near him felt like it was hit by a storm wind.

Naruto ran at Lee, and punched him, while using his other hand to grab Lee so that he didn't fly away. Naruto then launched Lee to the ground creating a LARGE crater. Then Naruto pulled Lee back up and threw him at least a mile in the air.

Lee was very confused, first he felt pain, then he felt the ground, then he felt the wind, and now he was suspended in air, all faster than he could process. Lee regained his bearings, and moved his body to be laying on his belly in the air. Lee then saw a dot of Yellow coming right at him.

The Green man pulled his fist back, to punch him right as he was in range. Naruto looked up, and as Lee was about to throw his punch, Naruto evaded to the side, and quickly jammed his fist into Lee's face.

The green Genin was launched further into the air, but Naruto paid no heed, as he used a wind jutsu aimed at the ground. He was shot up and within moments, he was face to face with a badly beaten Lee. Naruto and Lee went into a taijutsu battle all over again, except in the air.

Naruto felt Lee slacking, like his hits were starting to take a toll on him. Naruto decided not to drag this out further.

Naruto used Lee as a launchpad to kick away. The ground was speeding towards them, and Lee was about to take the full brunt of it.

Lee tried to brace himself, but he was too battered up to move in time. His last sight was a golden Naruto landing gracefully like he was a feather.

Lee's eyes went lifeless, and Naruto smiled. Gai jumped out and he was dead serious, as he threw a threatening glare at Naruto. He checked his breathing and pulse. Both were gone. He shined a flashlight at Lee's eye, no reaction. Naruto then stepped up, chakra coat down. His hand glowed golden and touched Lee. His pulse and breathing weren't back, but his wounds had closed. Naruto then took some of his life force, and put it into Lee, and suddenly, Lee's eyes fluttered open.

"You revived him?!"

"Yes, it's a part of my skill set. Lee's fine!"

"Naruto, you are clearly much stronger at taijutsu than me. I will train harder, and the next time you tumble through a wall into the village, I will be waiting for you. And I will defeat you!"

"You may try."

Naruto finished his conversation, and avoided Gai's questions, claiming it to be a SS rank secret. He had to go see a certain duckbutt-head.

Naruto was walking towards the Uchiha complex, when Itachi Uchiha came out. He spared Naruto a glance, and turned around and walked away.

"Oye, Sasuke! Come on out, we gotta see Anko sensei!"

Itachi stopped in his tracks.

'He knows Sasuke?'

Naruto noticed Itachi stop, and concluded that Sasuke was an important matter to him.

"Itachi Uchiha, aka Crow. You seem to be either a close friend or brother to Sasuke. Your eyes have unlocked the Mangekyou, though I will not ask how. May I know if Sasuke is here?"

"Who are you?"

"I'm Naruto Uzumaki! Remember it!"

'Naruto Uzumaki, the Naruto Uzumaki. Is he really Konoha's Wind?'

"May I know your purpose with Sasuke?"

"Man you ask a lot of questions huh? Well, I wanted to see Anko sensei, I'm assuming you know that Sasuke trains at night with Anko and me when he's off missions. I wanted to see how much he grew. I did promise to train him…"

"You promised to train my little brother?"

"Yeah I kinda just said that, you aren't really as smart as they told me."

Itachi ignored that, but even he couldn't restrain a short lived frown. Naruto noticed that as well.

"Sorry to anger you. But is Sasuke there?"

Itachi nodded then spoke.

"Yes, he is in the middle of training. You want me to let you in?"

"Highly appreciated! Thanks!"

Itachi walked back to the door, opened it then motioned Naruto in. The two walked the solemn halls in silence and after a series of turns, Naruto saw Sasuke practicing his Phoenix Fireball Jutsu. He already achieved the no hand signs level, and he was focusing on increasing size.

"He had started leaving at night, and would come back bruised and dirty. But he grew exponentially. I correlated the 2, it was an easy conclusion. But when you left, Sasuke's immense growth slowed incredibly. Not a hard conclusion to make that you were somewhat behind Sasuke's growth. It joys me to know that you are back to train Sasuke a bit more."

"NO problem!"

Naruto ran up ahead. And without Sasuke knowing, He did his own Phoenix Fireball Jutsu without hand signs. His fireballs were immense in size, at least 5 times bigger than Sasuke's, and many more too, about 30.

Itachi widened his eyes. He had never seen that jutsu being used with that size of fireball at such amounts. Sasuke turned around to see his blonde friend.

"NARUTO!" he shouted happily.

"Aah, duckbutt-head! What happened to your emo-ness?"

"Emo-ness?..."

"Forget it… By the way, you can't increase the size if you don't keep the fire ball chakra dense. It has to get more dense the bigger the size so that it doesn't run out of energy until it crashes. Here, try to make the densest fireball you can, I'll feed you chakra."

Sasuke grinned. He filled his lungs as Naruto flooded his system with chakra. The fireball that came out was the size of a pea, but as it flew up, it swelled and exploded into the biggest fire ball all three ninja had ever seen.

"Sasuke… You Are AWESOME! I think you made a new jutsu! Exploding Fire Pea!"

Sasuke laughed at the name. And Naruto snickered.

"Fire Style: Exploding Fire Pea!" Naruto shouted as he redid the jutsu, except his fire was blue.

"I'm still better than you!" Naruto chided, and Sasuke socked him in the stomach. Naruto reeled back fakely, tears flowing out of his eyes.

"Sasuke-kun, why?" Naruto sobbed out.

Sasuke laughed and Naruto wiped his fake tears away and laughed with him.

"Naruto, how did you know that jutsu?"

"Oh, I just made it! Thought you were watching or something."

"No… the Phoenix Fireball Jutsu."

"Oh, I watched Sasuke do it! I just copied his Chakra flow, and did it."

"You can replicate chakra flow without hand signs at will?"

"Yeah! Faceless Freak told me what hand signs do to your chakra, and what combinations make your chakra flow in certain ways. So if you can change your chakra flow the same way hand signs do, then you can do jutsus without ever having to do hand signs!"

Itachi never thought about hand signs that way, but it was such a simple concept in theory.

"That needs insane Chakra control though…"

"Yeah, but once you manage chakra control to that level it should be fine."

"You achieved needle precise chakra control?"

"Yeah!"

Itachi knew about Konoha's Wind and its legends, but he didn't expect the real deal to be… so surprising. He knew he was a prodigy but this much? And just a goofy little fun boy too? He seems like the sloppy and messy type, yet his fighting style is completely contradicting.

Naruto knew that look all too well. "Not what you expected me to be right?" Naruto said, serious and collected.

"Yes, I would think you would be more… more… professional and shinobi like. More like an ANBU member."

"ANBU? I would never! Those cold hearted faceless freaks. I already am sick of one!"

"WHo?"

"Dragon, you know…"

Itachi nodded, but he was rather interested in the boy.

"Naruto, would you mind sparring with me? I wish to test my abilities on you."

"Are you using your sharingan?"

"Yes, I hope you can take it."

"Sasuke, would you please try watching from the side?"

Sasuke nodded, he was practically drooling at the idea of people throwing high level jutsus around.

Naruto went into his taijutsu stance, which he adjusted to hold a single tanto instead of 2 katanas. Itachi activated his MS, and stood still. Naruto knew that the first hit was everything, but he knew better than to rush a MS user head on.

Naruto ripped off some of his cloth, and blindfolded his eyes, he can't risk looking into his eye by accident. Naruto threw some kunai at the area. This allowed him to lay a chakra net on the ground through which he "saw".

Itachi tried to move the kunai out, but Naruto was in front of the MS user in a flash, and aimed a punch at his head, which Itachi dodged well in time, but he failed to notice a punch coming at his torso.

Itachi jumped back just in time.

"A subtle-hit user? Against a sharingan user? It's almost futile."

"Is it?"

Naruto smiled, as he poofed away, only to reappear in front of Itachi in a poof of smoke.

'He blinded me. But more importantly, does he know the 4ths space-time jutsu?'

Naruto kicked Itachi, and ran at the flying body. Itachi was however back in action as his kick launched him out of the smoke.

Itachi grounded his legs and balanced himself. He blocked a strong punch, and sidestepped a kick. Naruto tried to punch, but Itachi sidestepped before he actually raised his arms.

'He can read the twitching in my muscles with his eyes then.'

Naruto then tried to kick Itachi, and Itachi braced himself to dodge a kick, when a punch connected with his face.

"You can Micro-Feint?"

"Micro-Feint?"

"You can control even the twitching the muscles and fake a certain attack?"

"Oh, yeah, I realised you weren't insanely skilled, but rather good at reading my muscle twitching, rather useful, but I can get around that."

"You live up to your name."

Naruto smirked, "You haven't seen anything yet."

Naruto rushed at Itachi, who was steadily getting overpowered by Naruto's Micro-Feints. Itachi then stopped reading the most obvious twitch, and looked for other less obvious twitches. Naruto caught on quickly, as he switched from Micro-Feint to actually hitting regularly and sporadically. Itachi grunted in rage, as he pulled off a fireball at close range with Naruto.

Much to his surprise, the fireball dispersed into chakra, and Naruto was staring right at his eye, through the blindfold. Itachi tried to burn off the blindfold with Amaterasu.

Naruto smiled, and threw off his blindfold, "Took you long enough!" he said happily. Naruto flashed his eyes open, to show his own personal MS.

"How?"

Naruto snickered, before he used his own Amaterasu to burn the rest of his blindfold.

"It isn't fake. See, ooh, I should use Kamui!"

Nauto then created a spiral that warped the air, as a single kunai flew out of the portal.

"Kunai Shadow Clone Devastation!" Naruto shouted, as a single kunai turned into a million, aimed at Itachi.

Itachi's eyes moved in a blur, as he dodged and blocked and redirected the kunai horde. Naruto didn't miss an opportunity as he jumped at Itachi whilst transforming into a Kunai himself. He also left a True Bunshin in his spot.

Naruto was about to impale Itachi's leg, as a tanto blocked him. Naruto transformed back into himself, and kicked Itachi in the spine. Throwing him into a few Kunai. As Itachi shouted in pain at 16 kunai embedded deep into his body. Naruto then spun his MS around and burnt the kunais, the intense heat burning Itachi's skin.

Itachi turned into a flock of crows, and he stabbed Naruto, who also turned into hundreds of red foxes, which ran into the trees and disappeared.

'Genjutsu, when?'

Naruto pulled out his own Tanto and spun in a large circle, and Itachi jumped away. Itachi fought back with a wind jutsu.

"Wind Style: Wind Bullet!"

Naruto ran to the side, and taking a page off his Dragon Whip style, he used his momentum to jump in the air and spin at insane speeds.

"Fire Style: FLamethrower!" A large and never ending stream of fire flowed from his mouth and surrounded the ground in a series of flames. Naruot then landed, and snapped his fingers.

"AMATERASU VARIATION!" shouted Naruto, and all his fire, turned black and shot at Itachi.

Naruto wasn't idle, as he rushed at Itachi, tanto in hand, as he covered his tanto in Amaterasu flames. He then engaged in an Amaterasu enhanced Kenjusu and Taijutsu battle.

Assume could only stare in shock, Naruto was calmly overpowering his brother.

"Amadori!"

Naruto covered his hand in Amaterasu flames, and punched Itachi, who was already straining his Sharingan to keep up with Naruto's movements and blocking the amaterasu that randomly flung itself at the Uchiha.

Naruto used the sudden burning hot flame pain inflicted to Itachi, to strain him. And then using his kamui, he put the real Itachi in the spot where his genjutsu was seemingly trapped.

"How did you know?"

"I have studied you enough to realise what's really you and what's a genjutsu. You show me what you think you are, but I know what you really are, and there are slight differences. After I figure out who is who, it's rather simple to figure out your tricks."

"Then figure out this one" Itachi calmly said as his body was covered in a blue chakra.

"Defense Fury Jutsu?"

"Yes."

"Shogun Defense Jutsu!"

Naruto's body was covered in golden Chakra.

Itachi widened his eyes. He was losing, heavily, not beyond the point of no return, but he could see defeat on the horizon. He had to pull out all the stops.

Itachi ran at Naruto, who waited calmly. As Itachi punched Naruto, Naruto took the full brunt of it, grinning.

Itachi fell to the ground as all his muscles contracted and ached with pain a shinobi would never encounter in their life.

Naruto then squatted over Itachi's quivering body.

"Come on, try me… or is that all you got?"

Naruto then stuck out his cheek, practically wanting to get hit in the face. Naruto smiled. He touched the body of Itachi, and he went back to normal.

"Quite the technique you have Naruto. May I know what it's called?"

"Can't tell, it's a secret. But all I can tell you, that it has the power to take away one's life by a mere touch, and if I were to spread the word of this jutsu, it might wreak havoc on the world we know."

Itachi widened his eyes. He also had a few questions.

"Before you start, let me explain a few things. 1. I don't have the sharingan, it was a genjutsu, it was small and undetectable, but you were too shocked to think it could have been that. 2. The blindfold was see-through, but you were too hasty to check. These small tricks made you believe that your main skill, Genjutsu, was not going to work, and you self ruled out your most powerful asset. Then, how I replicated Amaterasu and Kamui… I can heat my fire temperature turning it blue, that's how the heat of amaterasu was replicated. The black color was another genjutsu. My kamui is actually a space time Jutsu inspired by the actual Kamui. It does not have all the capabilities of your Kamui, but it is a very close replication." Naruto said.

"You realised my main strength, and you plotted to take it out of the equations from the very beginning, leaving to my weaker assets. Then you shocked me further and further using carefully placed illusions to cloud my thinking. You also disabled the use of ninjutsu by keeping close to me or countering my Ninjutsu. You pushed me in a taijutsu battle, which you clearly heavily outmatch me in. You have a sharp mind Uzumaki, you live up to your name. It was an honor fighting you."

"Thanks! You're a strong opponent, remember that. It is only natural to lose from time to time, but it will not be worth anything if you get out alive yet don't reflect and act upon it."

Itachi heard the boy's words, like he was a veteran. 'Has he fought an opponent far stronger than me… and won? Does he really not find me a challenge? Thank you for exposing my weakness, Naruto, I will not let your lesson go to waste.' Itachi pulled back his shoulders slightly, a new found motivation to grow.

Sasuke sighed. "Naruto, you have to slow down! How am I supposed to beat your hairy blonde butt if you keep beating everyone like they're made of pillows?"

Naruto snickered a bit at Sasuke's simile. Naruto's brain suddenly pulled out a genius idea.

"Sasuke, you weren't allowed to go with Dragon and me because of your skill level. But now that you've trained, me and Dragon are in the village for a while… WE CAN ASK JIJI IF YOU CAN COME WITH US!"

Naruto found himself in front of the Sandaime excitedly shouting his new idea.

"Jiji, Sasuke here is more than powerful enough to come with us on our travels. Dragon and I were getting used to each other and realised that our training was entering a standstill. With Sasuke around, it will serve 2 purposes as he will not only progress faster within our training regime, and we will grow faster."

"Dragon wasn't kidding when he said you have a way with words. Well, I don't see why not. Sasuke, pack up, you leave tomorrow."

"YEAH!"

Sasuke threw an arm around Naruto, and Naruto smiled brightly.

Naruto walked off, Sasuke behind him, and he found Dragon waiting outside, panicked almost.

"What happened?" Naruto asked.

"Orochimaru, he joined an underground cult we've been tracking, err, trying to track for almost three years. Along with that, the Uchiha are planning a coup d'etat. We have to stop it. Sasuke, you haven't heard of anything of the sort right?"

"No." Sasuke said, frowning.

"Naruto, try to see if Itachi is with this. If not, try to get him on our side. I will attempt to bring Shisui Uchiha to our side. Sasuke, see if you can try to bring either Shisui or Itachi."

"Worst case scenario?" asked Naruto, sharply and seriously.

"We might have to eliminate the Uchiha clan. Not all of them, the rebelling ones."

"Eliminate?!"

"Worst case scenario Sasuke. It's fine, just gotta talk our way out of it, maybe put on a show. It's gotta take a lot more than rebellious Sharingan wielders to make us eliminate them. But it should be fine. I got your back." Naruto said, smiling.

"I-I'll see what I can do."

"That's the spirit!"

Naruto and Dragon ran off into the ANBU headquarters, where Shisui and Itachi would be. Sasuek ran off to his complex.

Naruto quickly found Shisui.

"Oye, Kotoamatsukami guy!"

Shisui turned around at the name that could only be for him.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Konoha's Wind, Naruto Uzumaki, this isn't ANBU related, so it would be preferred if we stepped outside as I wanted to discuss a very important matter. If you wouldn't mind, I hope this goes smoothly, I'm not in the mood of fighting another Sharingan user after stone face."

Shisui was on much alert, but still chuckled at hearing Itachi's nickname.

"I wouldn't mind, but did you really defeat Itachi?"

"Yeah!"

Naruto pointed at the door, and the two walked in silence.

As the two stepped into the sun, Naruto sighed, he had to say this right.

"Shisui, we have confirmed the planning of a coup d'etat from your clan. Know I'm not blaming anyone, moreover, I'm not pointing fingers, but I have confirmed only one thing. Fugaku Uchiha is behind this, and if he goes ahead with the revolt, he will be sentenced for life along with anyone behind him. It is in my best interest to keep everyone happy, and this might be much too ask of you, but if we end up massacring your clan, please refrain from stepping in and stopping us."

Shisui nodded, he had already heard of the coup d'etat, he also considered the possibility of having to massacre his clan. He didn't like it, but if he was told to, he would do it.

"I am on your side."

"Great! You are relieved from all duties for today, and you have a sole mission, try to save anyone you can from pointless bloodshed."

Shisui nodded and ran off. Naruto went back and found Itachi and told him the same thing. The reaction was the same.

Naruto then ran behind Itachi, who was still wounded from the battle. Naruto caught up to him, and healed his wounds. Itachi nodded and continued.

Naruto reached the Complex, where he saw Sasuke frantically trying to persuade his father to stop this.

Fugaku reached out and slapped Sasuke. Itachi and Naruto swelled with anger, but it was Naruto who stopped Itachi.

Naruto then moved to a building where Shisui was, and he found the young ANBU talking to a large group of Uchihas.

"...they will kill us all! Please listen to me!"

"Hmph, boy, mind your tone, who can possibly kill us all, kill the Uchihas. How foolish of you!"

"I know I can, I know ANBU Dragon can, and we just so happen to be a team." Said Naruto who seemingly appeared from nowhere.

"Who are you, are you trespassing, non Uchiha!"

"Nope, I have full access to the village given to me from the Hokage. Your complex is in the village right?"

"Naruto, thank you! Please explain to them the situation."

"Okay, Uchihas, your planning of the coup d'etat is already leaked. All the shinobi's are on standby and the hokage has already been evacuated. Every single shinobi from genin to Anbu are stationed around the village preparing. When Fugaku goes out and starts the rebellion, Fugaku will be killed. Anyone behind Fugaku will be killed, any supporters from the clan will be killed. The ANBU and Jounin of the village are backing us up on this."

The Uchihas gasped, were they really that ready. The element of surprise was key to this mission. Stealth was key to this mission.

"Also FYI, I'm Konoha's Wind, and in case you were wondering, I can take your life in a single touch."

Naruto stepped outside, and rubbed his hand on a bark of a tree, and the tree died, leaves turned yellow and crisp. Roots shriveled and the bark molded and dried up.

"But I can also give your life back to you." He touched the bark one more time, and the tree returned to its original form."

The Uchihas gained an ounce of respect for the boy. Naruto then put the final straw in the hat.

"If we can't identify the supporters of the coup d'etat from the nonsupporters, innocent lives will be shed. If anybody wishes to stop this pointless rebellion, step behind me, and give all the information you have to Itachi and Shisui. If anybody still wishes to continue, then you have until sunset."

Naruto found this simple trick quite effective, place some turmoil, and then present a heaven. Then watch as peoples' hearts flip and loyalty changes.

Out of the 26 people in the room, 23 of them stepped to Naruto's side.

"I see, so you choose death. I'll be waiting." said Naruto to the remaining three.

Naruto and Shisui moved from room to room, slowly talking their way out of it.

Fugaku smiled as his plan was set into motion.

"Good job, give them loads of wrong locations, condense their forces. Then when we strike, it will be unheard and unseen, only blood will mark our footsteps. We will launch this sunset."

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

The sun went down and Naruto held his tanto firmly. He looked around and saw the shinobi around him. He knew something felt off, but he shrugged it away. Hours passed and not a single thing, until suddenly, an explosion rang near the Hokage tower.

Naruto raced in full speed growling. There he saw Fugaku and his Uchiha counterparts launching fireballs at the tower. Some Uchihas were in the building, and Naruto knew that he was going to have a hard time. Then a man landed next to him.

"Dragon, let's do this, gotta be a piece of cake with us 2 around."

"YEAH, time to kick some Fiery Fan Butt."

Naruto laughed and ran at the Uchihas. Sasuke, Itachi, Shisui, Dragon, Anko, and Lee in pursuit. Naruto appeared in front of the group, and in a few well placed touches, they fell. Dragon was calmly and surely slicing down Uchihas along with him.

Naruto pulled out his tanto, and used a large scale kenjutsu.

"Blade Expansion!"

Naruto's tanto was coated in chara and in a single slice, cut 12 unknowing Uchihas in half. As the blood sprayed onto Naruto's face, he wiped it off. Naruto killed Uchihas by the second, many were inexperienced, as the Uchihas were a prideful group and believed their skills were already finely honed. Naruto proved different.

"Itachi was easy but I really thought you guys would do better." said Naruto, swinging his blade and touching people. Naruto saw Fugaku do some hand signs and Naruto knew what was coming. He threw a kunai at fugaku.

"Shadow Kunai Jutsu!" the kunai turned into 100 and made Fugaku turn around and stop the attack. Naruto ran around Fugaku's distracted body, and in a low stance, he brought his tanto up to impale Fugaku, when the said Uchiha turned around and kicked Naruto in the face.

"I'm not a clan leader if I can't stop petty tricks."

"Heh, so you're the smart one huh, despite being the one to cause this foolishness."

Naruto chuckled at his insult.

"You have the strength to laugh in battle? I will teach you the meaning of despair."

Naruto then stood up, and blurred, he moved towards Fugaku, and as Fugaku rose his hand to punch, Naruto ran the other way and in a high swipe, knocked Fugaku off his feet.

Fugaku then turned his torso around and grounded his hand. Using his new point of rotation, he regained balance, and got on his feet, only to get kneed in the face. Followed by and kicked the back of his head, and then a plunge kick to his torso.

"Why can't I read your movements with my sharingan?"

"It's my advanced taijutsu style. I blur and reappear to land a hit. So by the time you calm your senses at my sudden appearance, I already did the damage I wanted. A few other aspects are included, but that is the gist of it."

Fugaku realized his Sharingan was useless against a shinobi of this caliber. Fugaku placed a simple illusion and ran away.

"Release: Head Seeker!" Naruto shouted, getting out of his stupor, and his tanto gained a life of its own seemingly, and flew around the battlefield, decapitating people as it did.

"Naruto Style: Chakra Combustion!"

Suddenly, everyone who had an ounce of chakra felt relieved as their chakra went up to full, but their chakra started to grow when suddenly, chakra paths started to explode, and people literally started to bulge violently before releasing gushes of blood and dying.

Before the people knew it, the Uchihas were no more. Anyone who participated, female and child included, died.

Naruto saw Sasuke, Shisui, and Itachi stared at the carnage. A single Fugaku was standing on his knees, breathing heavily.

"How?"

"I warned you, no mercy. We let you escape, we tolerated your pride and your hunger for power. But when you decided to kill the hokage and take its position, you crossed a very big line."

"I'm sorry…"

"Fugaku Uchiha, you are as of now banished from the village. You have 5 minutes. Carry anything you can and leave. If you take anyone with you, they too will be marked a missing nin, and hunted. After 5 minutes, it's fair game for anyone to try and kill you."

"H-Hai!"

The man ran to his complex. He had a heavy loss on his shoulders, and he was the one to blame.

It was a full moon, and there was a slight breeze. The perfect night, some would call it. But who would've thought that there would be a massacre that night.

Naruto used a water jutsu on Dragon, and likewise on Naruto, and they sat in front of a fire to dry.

Naruto wanted to forget this day. He saw the rage in the Uchiha's eyes and they angered him, he saw the despair they felt as they fell to their misery, it saddened him. Every life he took was involuntary.

It was different from Suna, he hated the people there. He wanted to rip the guts out of everyone.

But not this time.

Naruto dried up quickly, and walked to his house. He opened the door, and he saw a neat and tidy house. He sighed as he plopped down on the sofa, when a kunai flew at him and he caught it.

A brown eyed, bunned hair kunoichi was staring at him, both with shock and sorrow.

Naruto smiled happily and hugged TenTen, who blushed madly but fell into the hug.

"You're back…"

"For just this night. I have to go tomorrow at dawn."

TenTen sighed, she had longed to see Naruto when he was gone. And now that he's back, she wanted it to last forever, for the sun to go down and stay down.

Naruto released TenTen and walked back to the sofa where he was laying down.

TenTen relished the memory of Naruto hugging her, since she had almost forgotten it since the last time.

She sat beside Naruto and leaned her head on Naruto's shoulders.

"You seem troubled."

"I-I-I killed them…"

"Who?"

"The Uchiha's, 95% of the Uchihas, are gone. I didn't want to, but I had to. I wanted to stop them, yet I couldn't. It came down to bloodshed. Their blood is on my hand!"

"No, you had to, you couldn't avoid it!"

"I could have ignored it…"

"You did the right thing!"

"I don't want to do the right thing! I wanted to save as many of my friends as possible. I would go and join the Akatsuki if that meant saving you or Sasuke!"

"Naruto…"

"I need some sleep, my brain is clogged."

TenTen nodded, usually she would tease Naruto and offer to let him sleep in the bed… with her and get rejected, but she just patted Naruto on the back, and let him have some space.

She went to her room, and brought out a blanket and saw Naruto sleeping already. She spread the blanket over Naruto, who smiled slightly at the feeling, and she moved back.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Sasuke ran through the forest, he didn't care where he was going. Itachi and Shisui were behind him, both trying to make him come back.

Itachi raced at full speed, but Sasuke's small but agile legs were faster. Shisui wasn't the tracker kind, and was already gasping for air. Itachi turned around, and told Shisui to get Naruto. Shisui nodded and ran off. The young Anbu ran through Konoha, trying to find Naruto's residence.

He found a little apartment and saw Naruto sleeping, a female sitting beside him also half awake, smiling at Naruto.

Shisui smiled, and although he hated to be a party pooper, he had to.

knock* *knock* Shisui tapped on the window. TenTe jolted awake, and opened the window for the ANBU.

"I am ANBU Coyote, you can call me Shisui Uchiha, one of the few survivors. I need Naruto, Sasuke Uchiha escaped."

TenTen turned around to see Naruto well and awake, already running at the door. Naruto felt his eyes tearing up, and he ran with Shisui.

Shisui knew he couldn't keep up with Naruto, and pointed him to the direction Itachi was.

Naruto ran full speed, and went through the trouble of releasing his weights. In no time, he was with Itachi and could barely make out a figure in front of him. Naruto raced ahead, and grabbed Sasuke by the collar.

"WHY?"

"I had to, it's fine if you don't forgive me. But know that I regret every ounce as much as you do. I wish I could take it back, rewind every single slash I made. I can bring them back to life, but the moment they took part in the rebellion, they became Missing Nin with a kill on sight order."

"WHY WAS MY FATHER SO ARROGANT, SO STUBBORN, SO… POWER HUNGRY! I HATE HIM, HE LED THEM ALL TO DEATH!"

Naruto punched Sasuke in the face, and Sasuke tumbled back, shocked. Naruto then flashed a hand sign saying come at me. Sasuke got up, and in the strongest punch he could muster, punched Naruto back. Naruto tumbled backwards and stood up again.

"One more!" Naruto shouted. Sasuke shouted loudly this time as he punched.

"One more!" Naruto shouted again. Sasuke obliged, and kicked him.

"ONE MORE!" Naruto shouted. And Sasuke ran at Naruto, punching him left and right, letting out shouts of rage and occasionally a few tears. Sasuke slowed to a stop, as he shuffled backwards.

"Heheh, you sure got a good punch." Naruto smirked, as he wiped some blood on his face away. Naruto slumped to the ground, asleep. Sasuke did too in his lead.

Itachi sighed, and put a simple genjutsu over them. He sat down, and he too fell asleep.

Naruto woke up with a jolt, as a bird chirped loudly. Naruto looked around and saw Itachi sharpening his kunai. Sasuke is still asleep. Naruto got up, unsealed some herbs and spices, a pot, some wood, and a few vegetables, and a pot stand.

Naruto set the wood on fire. He set the pot stand over the fire and placed the pot on it.

He used a water jutsu to fill the pot. And using some herb and spice magic, made a light soup. Using a kunai, he cut the vegetables, and laid them on a mat he unsealed. He used a series of short jutsus to soften the vegetables. Naruto sprayed some salt over the Soup, and dumped the vegetables in. He brought the soup to a boil, and moved the pot off the fire.

Naruto put out the fire, and waited a little for the soup to cool. As he did, Naruto cleaned up, and brought out 2 bowls. Naruto served Itachi and himself, and they ate in silence.

"Itachi, would you mind coming with me and Dragon and Sasuke on our mission. We are sure to be deemed missing ninjas after last night. Everyone who participated will be banished. Including Shisui and Sasuke. Dragon might be spared, as his presence in the village was never leaked. And he could play it off. But not so much us."

Itachi nodded. He knew this was coming. A cost to pay for justice.

"I accept." Itachi finished his food, cleaned his bowl, and gave it back to Naruto. Itachi shook Sasuke awake. And the duck haired genin woke up. Naruto offered him some soup, and Sasuke took it.

Itachi explained the situation to Sasuke. After a few moments of peace. They shunshined to Konoha.

As predicted by Naruto. Naruto, Shisui, Itachi, Anko, Lee, and Sasuke were summoned, leaving Dragon out of it.

"Naruto, ANBU Crow and Coyote, Sasuke, Anko and Lee, you cannot be rewarded for your actions last night. And it aches me to say this, but by law, the Uchiha's were still a part of the village. You killed your comrades. They hadn't attacked me yet, which makes them very violent pranksters, not traitors. I'm not saying what you did was wrong, as they were attacking this building hoping to take me down with it, but you stopped them."

The gang nodded.

"I will have to banish you, or the ninja Nations will accuse me of breaking the law, and harboring illegal ninja. I will create Team Ghost. Naruto, you will lead Team Ghost. You are now a group of SS rank Jounin Missing Nin, with a 'RUN ON SIGHT' warning. Naruto I cannot stress the importance of secrecy in the operation. Konoha will not hunt you down until the next batch of genins who will believe you are very dangerous criminals, but I cannot say the same about others."

"Hai!"

"You will report to me every month, via bird. You will be doing missions that I cannot make shinobi do. You will execute people that cannot be executed without breaking the law. Let me restate my speech. You are now above the law. But you are now a large target for hundreds, no, thousands of shinobi. You have the liberty of ignoring rules but please do not misuse your situation."

"I'll try."

"You leave today, in 10 minutes, say your goodbyes and pack as much as you can. Before you leave, pick up the first mission for Team Ghost. One more thing. If you run into anyone before you leave. Make them believe you are criminals."

Naruto nodded. "I will protect the village from the shadows. That is my life's mission."

Hiruzen nodded. "I'm sorry Naruto, I wish I could do something else."

"No, if you hadn't then I would lose my respect for you. I would feel your resolve to do what is right is weak and unstable. Thank you."

Sarutobi nodded, "You have matured a lot for a boy, and you have seen the world. Yet you have much to understand. I hope you survive till I clear this up in a few years.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

A child opened the door to his home. He stayed overnight after a long training session with his friend. He saw no one.

"Maa! Paa! Demoy!"

He saw no one. A boy landed behind him from out of nowhere, 3 tomoes in his red eyes.

"Where are my family?"

"I killed them all! They were helpless and pitiful, such easy targets. The taste of their blood is the BEST meal I've had in ages! After all, I needed someone to test my strength on. Turns out, oops, I KILLED THEM! It was SOOO fun!"

The child stumbled back. "WHO ARE YOU? YOU MONSTER!"

"I am SASUKE UCHIHA! Grow stronger, then avenge your clan! I'll be waiting. Let me know your name boy, so that I enjoy the last Uchiha's body I'll ever have the pleasure of ripping apart."

"I am Sishou, I will be back, I will hunt you down, I will kill you."

"Try to!"

Sishou ran at Sasuke with a kunai. Sasuke grabbed the wrist of the attacker and pulled him towards his eyes. Mere centimeters away, Sasuke cast a genjutsu and the child fell to the ground, passed out.

"Shisui, Itachi, all clear."

The said two fell from the roof, and they ran to their rooms. Within minutes, they were out, their stuff in scroll strapped to their utility pouch.

The three nodded at each other and ran to the building.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Naruto went to his room. He knew he shouldn't try to see TenTen, but he couldn't leave her without saying goodbye.

He flew into his room via the window, and packed his stuff quickly and silently. He had enough training for that, as Dragon and Naruto would sleep in private areas from time to time, and they had to escape the gardener and the guards. Naruto grabbed his Tanto, and he held it tightly.

"We will fight for Konoha, even if our actions are rewarded with a scowl." The tanto shined a bright white, and Naruto held two smaller Tantos in his hands.

He went into the living room. And TenTen looked up worriedly. She smiled and ran at Naruto giving him a big hug.

"TenTen, I will leave now, in the next few days, you will learn things about me. When you learn about it, they sound exactly as they seem. I am not a good person, don't treat me like one."

With that, the blonde ran out the door, leaving a few tears in his wake. TenTen looked at his retreating figure in sadness and confusion.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

The 6 looked at each other in grief, but amidst it all, there was a dedication.

A hidden honor of fighting from the shadows.

A hidden honor of fighting for your village even if everything is just right for you to say "Screw It!".

They burdened a heavy load. And "they" were all they had.

Naruto stepped up to address the Hokage.

"Naruto, leader of Team Ghost. Go to the jounin lounge to receive your uniforms. I have prepared for a team like this since I was Hokage. Naruto, you are now Fox. Itachi, Crow. Sasuke, Eagle. Shisui, Coyote. Anko, Snake. Lee, Gorilla. Come forward to receive your masks."

The masks are ANBUish, but were black, and white lined the holes where one saw through. Each person had their animal drawn on their masks as if they were looking through the eyes of the animal itself.

The 6 left the room, to see a pair of 6 ANBU gear, but white. A white T shirt with black lining. A white armour vest with black straps. A black belt with a white utility pouch. White pants with black lining and black boots. Forearm armour was black on the right arm. And the left arm was colored to their respective colour.

Naruto had Orange Forearm Armour with White straps.

Itachi had Red.

Sasuke had Dark Blue.

Shisui had Turquoise.

Anko had Purple.

Lee had Green.

Each of them wore a black cloak with their respective color on the end and on the lining of the hood. If coupled with some mist, they might look a lot like ghosts.

Each of the 6 put on their masks and looked at each other.

"Team Ghost, your first mission is to join the Akatsuki. They have ties with the Otosuchi, and plan for world dominance. The Akatsuki consist of top notch missing ninjas and they hope to gain control of the Rikudou Sennin's treasure, which no one has found."

"Yes sir!" Naruto responded.

Hiruzen waved a hand. "May we never meet in battle, then I will dispose of you, or you dispose of me. But we shall not shed a tear till after."

Naruto nodded and turned around.

"Ghosts! Dismissed!"

The 6 jumped out of a window, and with a glance at the hokage, he left.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

"Maaaan, I thought Ghosts would be all cool and stuff, you know, go into enemy villages and blow apart things! Then leave without a trace. You know!" Shisui said.

The blonde beside him nodded.

"As leader of the Ghosts, we will leave for Uzushiokagure. I have been rebuilding the place since my visit with Dragon, we will set up camp there. If my calculations are correct… there should be about an acre of unrenovated land. If we leave full speed tomorrow at the first sign of light, we can make it before they rebuild the place."

"Your youthfulness hasn't dropped a millimeter since we left!"

"Same to you Lee!"

"Where can we intercept the Akatsuki though?"

Naruto thought. "We already searched through the land of Sand and Fire. My friends at the land of lighting claim no suspicious activity. Right now, the most reasonable choice is for them to set up in the land of mist or Earth. Any of the non shinobi lands would be a bad idea, as the villagers are self aware and more cautious. Anyone with a mind can figure that out. Which leaves the land the Rivers. It's desolated and between two major Shinobi lands."

"Doesn't that make it bad?" said Sasuke?

"Being a runaway is all big gamble Sasuke. You need to understand what are good risks and what are bad. Hiding in the land of rivers is a good risk. But always remember, just because it is a good risk, doesn't stop it from being a risk. It simply means, that if you can be careful enough, the risk will play off. Like a game of Poker." Itachi said. And the gang nodded.

"Okay!"

Naruto then sighed as his pot of soup was brought to a boil. Naruto doused the fire and stirred the soup. He served and they ate in joy.

In the 2 weeks they had been gone, they had been rather cheerful, and the situation became less and less… dire.

Sasuke grew immensely, almost a low jounin. Itachi became less and less dependent on his genjutsu. Shisui trained to be a long range fighter, as his skill set was rather unshaped.

Naruto was their lead attacker. Lee behind him. Anko would be the reinforcements. Itachi would switch spots with Naruto if a person were injured or Naruto had to break formation. Itachi would be a reinforcement and a Trump Card of the group. Sasuke would be a mid range fighter. The formation was set, but Naruto knew never to trust a formation.

In Naruto's words, 'A formation is bound to break. We must be prepared to fight a hundred by ourselves. Each of us must carry the burden of taking a spot not to your skill level. We all must shine in our spot, but never be afraid to leave it. We all must carry the strength to save our teammates by ourselves. But never forget that abandonment is always an option.'

The next day, the group was running full speed ahead, Naruto still considering a brisk run. Naruto always considered himself fast, but it really was too much.

As the group saw the top of the sun break the horizon, they pulled their hoods up.

They reached a beach, where Naruto stepped on the water.

"The island is around 40 miles from here."

Sasuke took a few deep breaths. And the blonde replenished his Chakra.

The Ghost ran for 2 hours, and they reached a grassland. Naruto let the group soak in the grass, and he looked for when people realised.

Itachi shot up then Anko then Shisui. Sasuke and Lee were still confused.

"Sasuke, Lee, this is a remote location, no one has been here since years. But the grass is leveled and cut."

The Genin Uchiha widened his eyes, and Lee frowned.

Naruto laughed and he brought everyone into a huddle, and he shunshined to Uzushiogakure. A few Narutos looked up from their reconstruction work and laughed happily.

Naruto poofed away his True Bunshins, and created 200 hundred new ones, who were up to date.

The true bunshins walked to a ruined building, which was still yet to be rebuilt. Naruto smiled and in a Large wind jutsu, blew the remnants of the building away. The true bunshins roared and made thousands of shadow clones, which started to build.

Within that very day, the building was complete. But Naruto knew that there was an underground structure to be built under it. He still knew about the underground structure on another building, but he decided to connect it, and make a large underground village. Possibly multi layered.

Naruto snickered, and the true bunshin snickered with him after Naruto voiced his ideas.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Hiruzen sighed. He was in the hidden Waterfall Village waiting for the other Kage to join. He was going to tell them of Team Ghost. Sure he was going to warp the details a bit, but the world will be scared of the Ghosts after today.

The Kazekage was already there and conversing with the Mizukage (Yagura). The Tsuchikage and the Raikage were arguing about their political relationship. The Hokage walked in and slapped the table.

"I called you all here for a big purpose. There has been an… incident."

The Kazekage and Raikage frowned at the word. They know the geezer enough to understand that the word "incident" was bad.

"The Uchiha's had been massacred by a group of 6 elites, they call themselves the Ghosts. Uchiha's survived. Itachi, Shisui, and Sasuke are part of the Ghosts. Sishou is the only Uchiha left, as he was missing during the massacre. Anko and Lee, joined the Ghosts because of a long held grudge. And then, the boy you all have heard of. Naruto Uzumaki, Konoha's Wind, is their leader. Raikage, if you wish to break off relationships with our village, that is acceptable due to Naruto now being a SS Rank criminal."

The Raikage frowned, something was off, and he would get down to the bottom of it. The Kazekage relinquished their treaty, joining Iwa. The Raikage went into a neutralized treaty. He was friends with Konoha, but he had no reason to help them. The Hokage knew… if he didn't carefully think about his steps, he would be facing all 4 of the shinobi lands.

"Hokage, I do not wish to be a negative influence, but are you still able to maintain your rank as the strongest village? The Uchihas were your major strength. The Hyuugas are self centered, and despite them being a powerful clan, they are very prideful and selfish. Your shinobi in general, are quite average."

"I very well know my state. But we still have ANBU Dragon. That itself is quite a power punch."

"But that does not make you fit for the strongest village." The Kazekage said.

Hiruzen sighed, the Uchihas succeeded in their own twisted way.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Naruto had been working on the Underground village for a few weeks now. He made a full labyrinth filled with rooms and arsenals and cafeterias and dojos. He had made a total of 3 underground layers. Shisui and Lee would carry materials from the factory which was linked directly to the mines.

Itachi was the map maker. Sasuke was an ordinary helper. Naruto knew the interior was cool and all, but he needed defences. Naruto assigned a team of 100 True Bunshins that would build the wall and design large scale defences. There should be seals, and the wall should be coated in anti chaka paint.

The days were peaceful, until Naruto saw an eagle fly to him, the Hokage's mark on a container on his foot. Naruto took out the message and read a loud to the group.

"Ghost Fox. There has been a change in your mission. Take out the Mizukage and assist in the rebellion. Stay undercover for a long as you can. If you want more instructions, then regard my instructions and do it your way."

Naruto smirked. "My way it is!"

Shisui and Sasuke roared in happiness, Anko had a wide grin, Lee was on his hands doing pushups. Itachi was smiling.

Naruto taught the group about travellers Shunshin. They all teleported to the rebellion hideout.

Immediately, spears were pointed at their necks. Naruto raised his hands, and went no one knee.

"WHO ARE YOU?"

"I am Ghost Fox. We heard about your little rebellion, and wanted to join. And no, we have o ties to the mizukage nor are we spies. Of course you can't take my word for it, so I leave it to you whether you want to keep me here. Or take my and my teams services."

"Ghost Fox?"

"What is he doing here?" said a female voice.

"Mei Terumi, leader of the Rebels. It is an honor."

"I would say likewise, but I can't after your actions."

"I take full credibility, but know. This mask is but a face for the real person behind it."

Mei Terumi frowned at the cryptic words, but Naruto and his team knew exactly what it meant.

"I will ask you one time and one time only. How much are you ready to put on the stake for a rebellion?"

Naruto thought about it carefully. He moved a hand and put it up to his neck. Then he cracked his knuckle while tilting his hand, making it seem like he broke his neck.

"Everything."

"Why?" Mei said calmly.

"I have my orders."

Mei realised the meaning of this boy's cryptic words. His mask was what people heard of. His face was what really happened. The boy still had orders despite being a missing nin.

The brown haired lady sighed.

"You're in."

Naruto nodded.

In a few days, they would leave the camp to attack a little anti rebel outpost. Naruto and his team were missing.

"They were traitors, I knew it!"

They marched to the camp, only to see the Ghosts enjoying some barbecue in front of the remains, drenched in all but their own blood.

"Mission complete!" Fox said happily.

Although the group cheered happily. They were astonished. How strong were they?

Just like that, Naruto would hear of the rebels next target, and eliminate it right then and there. Mei however was quite annoyed at the boy's quick actions. They were almost uncoordinated and rushed.

Almost.

"Ghost Fox, a word please?"

"Sure, whaddya need?"

"Please stop doing everything so rashly and quickly. Your attacks are unplanned and on a whim."

"Mei-Sama, I am not a rebel, I am an ally. I have an army of 6, you have an army of 600. I can plan quickly because I trust each of my partners' abilities. We need less planning to move 6 people than 600. My attacks are synchronized and carefully thought out. I may be doing it quickly, but I do it efficiently. Plus, when we attack the hidden village itself. You need all the forces you can-"

"Maam! The place is under attack!"

A boom resonated around the camp.

"Mei, stop your forces. Anko, Lee, Sasuke! Rally the troops, keep them safe. Itachi, you're on the field with me! Shisui, protect us from projectiles and wide range jutsus! Lee, once your done, join me and Itachi."

The team ran out, and Naruto stopped. "See, not at all quick and rash!"

Fox blurred and Mei was left mouth agape. She ran out to see the Ghosts in action.

Fox stood in front of the Mizukage's shinobi. He pulled out his tantos. As the forces rushed, he evaded and sliced. Then he released some mist, knowing that the shinobi will alert their senses to places where they wouldn't expect. Hence, a straightforward attack would be sure to throw off a lot of Shinobi.

Naruto ran right into the mist and within a few moments, the mist turned red. Naruto walked out, his tantos soaked in blood.

Then all of a sudden, large dragons flew from the sky towards the base.

"SHISUI!" Itachi shouted. The right after, a man jumped at the dragons, and in a jutsu, puffed them into chakra.

The blonde smiled. Lee ran at Naruto and kicked a Shinobi behind him.

"Thanks!"

"No problem."

Itachi activated his Sharingan, and cast a wide range stun genjutsu. The Shinobi fell to the ground lifeless.

Naruto created a few shadow clones who ran and slapped seals on them. He then took out all of the weaponry and stripped them to their undies. He threw the remnants into the pile.

"Disguise."

The green eyed rebel stared at the Ghost in astonishment. They were coordinated, worked exactly how one would expect of an elite team. Fluid and conquering.

"Amazing…"

"It's nothing, I haven't shown the most of my abilities!"

Mei walked towards Fox, and shook his hand.

"You are a great asset and friend. Please join me after we win."

"You forget. I… am a criminal. Mannerisms and good virtues are but a skin. I will not flinch once if I feel like killing you. I am not afraid to bring havoc to this place if I feel like it. I am a criminal. Treat me like one."

"I will rise to hokage! I can put off all charges! Please!"

Fox laughed maniacally. Then he pooped and a tanto was at the woman's neck.

"You think you can put off my charges. You are a fool. I am much more sinister and wicked than you think." His tanto dug into her skin "I am a murderer, not a Shinobi. I am not afraid to leave all my friends if I see a pot of gold waiting for me. I am the dark side of the moon. Like I said, I will not join you."

Mei was shaken. The boy was calm yet there was an evil trace in his tone. But there was something weird about it. His evil sounded forced, like he wanted to prove desperately something that wasn't true.

"You aren't evil. I know it. Neglect that fact all you want, but I've seen you ever since you entered this place. You don't act evil, you don't sound evil when you're talking to your friends. You lack a certain element. Something essential to-"

"Hate. He lacks hate" said Sasuke.

Naruto glared at him. "Stop it Sasuke!"

"He doesn't feel hate, his feelings are pure."

Mei widened her eyes, hate was the word.

Naruto released his tanto from her neck.

The young Uchiha took off his mask. He smiled at the brown haired rebel.

"I know it ain't much, but please consider us a criminal. Even if what we did was a crime or an act of precaution." Said Sasuke.

Naruto sighed. "Put on your mask Eagle."

Ao and Chojuro appeared then grabbed Naruto. "For the act of threatening Mei-sama's life. We will arrest you."

Naruto seemingly slipped out of their grasp and ran into the forest.

Anko and Sasuke followed him.

They found Naruto crying on a rock.

'He has so many feelings all harbored in his heart never letting them out. Was he always such a storm on the inside?'

Anko walked to him and hugged the blonde.

"Naruto, you still are a boy. It's okay to be overwhelmed by such a big series of events so quickly. But release your emotions soon after you feel them. Otherwise you fall into the Curse of Pain."

Naruto weeped louder. "I want to go back. I want to restart!"

Anko hugged him tighter. The Uchiha patted Naruto's back. He was older by 2 years, but he still considered Naruto as an older brother. And despite all this, when Sasuke weeped after the incident. Naruto was there, watching in silence doing whatever he could to console him.

Few days passed and the Ghosts were offset a little bit. It is hard to maintain a good team when the leader is so weak already. Mei tried to do everything she could, but Sasuke would always keep her away from Naruto.

It was a week before their plan to invade the village itself, but the troops were having a hard time keeping their morale up. After all, their key player was already not at the top of their game.

The rebels trained and prepared till a few hours before they left. Everyone was in full battle gear. Not a single compromise.

They marched towards the village, Mei and the Ghosts at the very front. Naruto was unsure about the mission. He knew he could take it by himself or with his team. But now he had 600 people to care about.

As the army marched, Fox would occasionally drop some clones and make them go away from the path. Then there would be some metal clashing sounds, then a muddled slice. They reached the village safe and sound.

"Shisui, Anko, break the wall and give us a path inside!"

"Aye!"

Anko and Shisui both stepped forward and released hundreds of fire balls and then an air style breeze behind them. This caused the fire to expand greatly and the wind to push them faster.

After a large series of explosions, half of the wall was obliterated including some of the buildings behind it.

Naruto ran ahead, 5 True Bunshins behind him.

They each pulled out a single tanto and prepped their other hand for some LF steals.

The small group ran in after telling the rebels to keep the opening… open. Mei told her army to follow his orders.

Naruto went into the mizukage building as his clones cleaned the way for him. He created a seal to block off the jinchuriki's foreign chakra and then he held it in his hand in a special grip. If he managed to place his hands on anything, he could release the seal and let it stick to the surface.

He ran into the office to see Mizukage waiting patiently for him.

"You are Ghost Fox, leader of the team who killed the Uchihas. The Hokage wasn't very convincing in saying you were a criminal. So please. Before I kill you, let me know the true story."

"Kill me! Oh please, try saying that after you notice the clone behind you."

The Mizukage looked back to see no clone waiting for him, then a kunai impaled his neck, killing him instantly.

"You were too arrogant to even think about hiding until after the rebellion, or hiring 6 ninja to stop them, then make them missing ninjas. Putting all the blame on the most powerful Shinobi you had."

The Mizukage looked at Naruto in shock, "That's the real story huh. I respect you for holding such a… burden."

"You… were ordered?" said a female behind Naruto.

He spun around in shock, and brought his tanto out to protect his secret. Mei took a step back at the sudden immense killer intent directed at her.

"Your secret is safe with me, I won't even tell it to Chojuro."

Chojuro was her sidekick along with Ao, but Chojuro was closer, easily mistaken for Mei's girlfriend.

Naruto nodded, he trusted her enough. The battle went on for about an hour after the death of the Mizukage. Naruto helped immensely otherwise the battle would have been lost. The casualties on the rebels were only around 15, and the enemy casualty was 150.

However, once the fight was over, the Ghosts had left, not a single trace to them, true to their name.

Mei became Mizukage, and many of the rebels became the Mizukage's Shinobi.

"Thank you, Fox." She muttered to herself. "A rebellion planned for a year was finished in a week."

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

The Former Mizukage walked senselessly. He managed to just put enough chakra in his throat before the kunai did anything fatal. And he escaped as the rebel leader entered the room.

To think his opponent was the one to save him.

Suddenly 2 men wearing black robes and red clouds jumped in front of him.

"Dear Mizukage, will you mind joining us. We are the Akatsuki, a group of deadly people who wish to achieve peace through the Rikudou Sennin's treasure."

Mizukage smiled, "I will!" The Akatsuki members smiled.

"Deidara, and this is Hidan!"

"I'm-"

"We know full well who you are, that's why we came to you."

"Then, can you possibly heal my neck?"

The two looked at each other and shrugged.

"No, but we can give you a band aid."

The former Mizukage growled.

The night approached and the Mizukage reached their hideout. A few other people dressed similarly as Hidan and Deidara were looking at them. Then an orange haired person with rin evan looked at him. "Welcome to the Akatsuki, Yagura."

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Naruto was training in his large dojo with Shisui, who wanted to learn how to fight close range fighters from afar.

"A close range fighter will try to get closer to you. As a long range fighter, you must be able to move away and avoid running into dead ends or cornering yourself. As a drill, try running away from me while fighting off my attacks. You get hit or you run yourself into a dead end, you lose."

Shisui grinned and went onto his knees.

"3"

"2"

"1"

"Go"

Naruto ran full speed at Shisui, who launched a wide range Earth attack. The Earth shook and swallowed anything on it. Naruto jumped into the air and pushed his air chakra behind him, he launched himself towards Shisui.

The Uchiha ran away, pulsing fire chakra from his hand while spinning, creating a border that Shisui could buy some time with.

Naruto ran through the fire, and nearly hit Shisui until a wind bullet was shot at his head.

He evaded and quickly continued his chase.

As Shisui ran away, he looked back and grunted when the bullet didn't stall the blonde nearly enough to make a good distance between them.

Said blonde was quick to launch a series of attacks. Fireballs back by wind. Then tsunamis with earth spikes in them. Invisible dragons and earth trip mines.

Shisui was surprised he was holding Naruto after this long. But Naruto clearly wasn't backing down.

Suddenly Naruto made a few more of him, then they launched even more attacks. Air bullets were coming at Shisui like they were shot from machine guns. Water dragons were coming from the moisture of the air like the atmosphere was 99% water.

The vicious blonde grinned a little bit. Naruto grinned, that was a very bad sign.

Suddenly Shisui was dislocating bones so that he could dodge attacks. The sheer amount of sound coming from all these explosions would make heavy metal concerts seem like a bird song.

Amongst all of the attacks, Naruto pinched Shisui right into a wind attack. The Uchiha flew across the large dojo like he was wearing 10 pairs of wings.

The leader of Ghosts walked over to the half dead Uchiha, healed him and helped him up.

"Calm down and take a breather. We will continue tomorrow. Good job, you're getting better!"

Shisui smiled and walked to the door. After letting Naruto pass, he walked behind him.

'For a 11 year old, he can easily beat veteran Shinobi.'

Days were nice and laid back. The Akatsuki infiltration was held back, apparently Yagura escaped and was already in the Akatsuki. This would pose a challenge to keeping their identity.

Of course what the Hokage didn't know was that Yagura was captured by Naruto, and Itachi and put a simple and unbreakable Genjutsu on him.

Naruto was not allowed to contact the Hokage so he just had to sit tight and hope Jiraya could figure that out.

The blonde was sitting on the biggest building in Uzushiogakure, which was quite big. Uzu was just as developed above ground as they were underground.

Over ground was where the mass amount of dojo's and where entertainment related buildings were. A LARGE ramen shop. A LARGE dango shop. There were also many large and empty roads and buildings which were in hope that when actual people come, they can fill up this place.

Underground was where all the residential areas were, and also where the supermarket was. The major dojo's were also underground.

Many other things were there but are far too many to state.

Naruto saw an eagle flying towards him, he stuck out his arm and the eagle perched. He pulled out the message and gave the eagle a little treat before it left.

The Ghosts were gathered and Naruto read their next mission briefing.

"2 things. Many spies have found out your location in Uzushiogakure, if this is true, then leave that place or kill the spies. If not, then don't worry. Secondly, the land of waves has been held under the thumb of tyrant Gato. They are an infant country that has the potential to become a Shinobi land. As we have lost all our allies. Your job is to save the place and hopefully turn it into a Shinobi land. We can handle the rest."

Naruto took a breath. "We can handle that."

The Ghosts roared in joy.

"We leave in 10 minutes, ready up."

"Classic Fox, always rushing into the action." The Ghosts laughed at that.

Fox chuckled himself.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Naruto reached the waves and was walking toward the village, till they heard a swishing sound, and a thud.

"Sishou! It's just a white bunny! Stop trying to show off!"

Naruto ran at the location. The ghosts took longer as to what was wrong, but they ran after him too. Sasuke stayed. He remembered Sishou, his face, his hatred, his words.

Itachi nodded and told Sasuke to stay.

Naruto reached when a sword flew at the Shinobi. He stood between the two and caught the sword by the handle.

"Zabuza Momochi. This is Kubikiribocho right?"

"Very good boy, I'm impressed you caught that, but you made a grave mistake, it was best if you just stood watching."

"It's a shame, I identified you just by your sword, but you couldn't identify me when I'm standing right in front of you."

Zabuza laughed, this boy was cocky.

"Oh, are you that important Fox masked- white clothes? Fox mask? You are-"

"Ghost Fox, the man who trained and led the team that killed the Uchihas." said Ghost Crow.

"The copy cat ninja, the last Uchiha, and the Uchiha's nightmare all fight me. I might have to pull out my secret weapon."

Then, Ghost Gorilla held an unconscious hunter in his hand.

"Oh, that?" Said Fox, mildly amused. Gorilla stood proudly at being useful in this battle. He wasn't bad, but he was next to some of the strongest Shinobi in the world, it was rather a challenge in itself trying not to get in the way.

"Haku! How?"

"I came with my team. I may be a criminal, but I know the importance of teamwork, and the influence of tactics in a battle."

Naruto felt the killer glare from a certain Uchiha on his back. And the confused and menacing looks from others. Kakashi knew the full story, but he had to make sure that the new Genin hated the Ghosts, so he had to hate them too.

Zabuza released some mist, and then ran away, knowing his own capabilities. Only to be stopped by Ghost Coyote.

Coyote kicked Zabuza who seemingly took it without flinching. He didn't know whether he became so fast that he was starting to outdo a jounin's reaction time, or that Zabuza just didn't bother to protect himself because he thought he didn't need to.

Zabuza was also flying, so clearly not the latter. The turquoise ghost chuckled a bit. "I trained with Fox himself."

Zabuza coughed up some blood, and stumbled up. He walked forward to see Fox waiting for him.

"You brat, how dare you?"

Fox pulled out a tanto. "My blade versus yours, if I win, you join Ghosts leave and Gato. If I lose, I will give you my fangs."

Zabuza's eyes widened. "Fang?"

Naruto motioned at his tanto. "You pick a place. I pick time."

Coyote laughed, 'Giving Fox the choice of time is the worst mistake you could make.'

"We fight on the bridge."

"Let's go then,"

"What do you mean?"

"I choose the time, I choose now."

Zabuza got up and looked for his kubikiribocho. Crow brought it to him and dropped some blood on it.

"You will need the repairs" Crow told him.

The leader walked to Zabuza, golden aura in his hand. The sword man of the mist stepped back.

"Healing jutsu, I want to fight you properly."

Zabuza nodded and took the jutsu. Immediately, he felt full of chakra, wounds closed and pain ceased.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Naruto stood in front of Zabuza on the incomplete bridge.

"Kakashi-Sensei, who is the kid?"

"Konohamaru, that boy, is a prodigy who made Jounin at 10. Trained the team who killed the Uchiha clan, and is now the leader of the most powerful and infamous team in history."

"Why is he helping us?" Sishou said.

"He is not helping us, we have a common enemy that's all. We have a mission, he is here for some kind of gain."

"Kakashi-Sensei, why did he do it?"

"He wanted to test out his skills, Hanabi. He said that spars Were fun, and the thrill of having your life on the line was not enough for him. I was his Jounin Sensei, it hurt me to see him turn out this bad."

The battle was not starting, each swordsman waiting for the right moment. They stood and analyzed. Finally Zabuza made his move, as he rushed at Naruto in a zigzag motion.

Naruto brought his tanto up, and ran at Zabuza. The two met with their swords creating a spark.

Fox twirled around Zabuza, using his agility, steady footwork and balance. He then swiped with his blade and Zabuza winced in pain. He didn't even see the boy move around him.

Fox wasn't done yet, and kicked Zabuza right on his wound. He screamed in pain as he was launched forward.

The rest of the Ghosts were beside the new team 7. They were laughing at enjoying themselves and cracking jokes. Much against their criminal face.

Sishou was the most aggravated.

He pulled out a kunai and threw it at Crow, but then Coyote caught it for him.

"I think this is yours buddy!"

"Don't call me buddy!"

"Okay, calm down…"

"How! You killed the Uchihas!"

"It was pretty fun, but I actually didn't kill any of them. Blame it all on Fox, he took down about 80% of them."

"You shouldn't be openly blaming your leader! He'll beat you up during training. HAHAHAHA!"

Coyote laughed a little too.

Then the crow walked forward and crouched to Sishou's height.

"You want revenge? Grow strong, grow hateful, train till you reach your limits then jump past it. I'll be waiting when you feel ready. But remember this boy, don't sacrifice your friends for yourself like we did."

Crow got up and nudged Coyote. "Come one, did I sound cool or not? I mean, you gotta scare people a little, cause then we aren't taken seriously!"

Even Sishou couldn't stop himself from chuckling.

Meanwhile Zabuza was on the ground, breathing heavily. He was using his sword for support.

Naruto brought his tanto to his neck. "Am I done here?"

"Brat, you are strong… I accept defeat and I join the Ghosts."

"Good! Well, let's get going! I'm making Ramen!"

Zabuza was rather shocked at the sudden mood change it he got up and was healed by Naruto.

"OYE EAGLE! YOUR TRAINING HIM! I HAVE MY HANDS FULL WITH COYOTE AND GORILLA."

"SURE THING BOSS!"

Zabuza laughed at his predicament. "I can't believe I'm getting trained by a kid too." He then took a deadly punch form Sasuke.

"Eagle, we trained in strength but you realize not everyone is as strong as us, so a friendly punch should be toned down a little when with other people."

"That's a friendly punch?" Zabuza coughed out.

"Yeah."

Later that day, Tazuna let Team 7 in their home, and grudgingly asked the Ghosts if they wished to join them for dinner. The Ghosts refused and said that they needed to kill Gato tonight.

"HUH?!"

"I'm kidding, we aren't reckless like that. I may seem like it, but I plan everything." Fox joked

"So you will join us for dinner?"

"No, we are criminals, please remember that."

"Okay, but can we do anything?"

"Can you give us a spatula? We've been using sticks cause Fox was the one bringing cooking gear and he forgot about spatulas." Crow said.

"Sure!"

The Ghosts received a spatula and went to their hideout.

Once out of hearing range Fox said, "We leave for Gato tonight, pack up camp and prepare yourself. We will kill him, give the money to the villagers, and leave, no exceptions. I will return in a simple henge and train the villagers in Shinobi arts as well as teaching them how to farm and provide for themselves. Meet me here in 2 minutes."

"Classic Fox."

As the team met up, Hanabi came out of the bushes and showed herself.

"Why are you here?"

"I want to know something and I want to know it honestly. Your chakra will change when you lie, and no amount of chakra control can stop it. If you harm me in anyway, I will know what the answer is."

"Shoot" said Fox.

"Did you want to kill the Uchihas?"

"Yes"

Hanabi took a step back. "You aren't lying?"

"No"

"You monster!"

Hanabi ran away in shock.

The Ghosts laughed at Naruto. "So that's how you do it, you answer a response but for a different scenario. You were thinking about Suna, not Konoha, when you killed Otosuchi. Smart. You were lying but you weren't." Said Snake.

"Good job, you figured it out!" Said Fox.

"No wonder you could lie even with my Sharingan reading every single flinch and quiver on your body."

Fox laughed, but he did feel bad for Hanabi.

She however was already hearing the conversation from afar. She had the strongest Byakugan in the family, so she could hear and from farther away.

"I knew it. They aren't really criminals."

A figure jumped down and strangled her, it was Fox.

"Don't you dare say a word about this."

"O-okay!"

Fox proofed and left her scared for her life. She wondered what about Fox felt so threatening? Hinata did the same thing too when she found out her love for Naruto.

"Naruto, please come back to Konoha, Hinata cries almost everyday at night."

Fox heard that too, and he also felt a lone tear fall from his face.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Naruto stood in front of a large mansion, and a plaque of the gate read Gato Industries.

The ghosts were calm and collected. They felt no fear, but they were still alert. Naruto jumped over the fence and helped the others over. They split and took out all the guard patrolling the building and blocking the entrances.

Naruto placed an exploding bomb for emergencies if something went terribly wrong. The ghosts dumped the bodies in a trash can, and opened the door gently.

They joined each other and opened the door. Immediately, they were attacked by guards. They were took out and Fox tied them up.

They went up the levels, Fox and Snake would take out the guards, Gorilla and Coyote would carry the money, and Eagle and Crow would tie up the guards and put a Genjutsu on them.

Naruto eventually reached Gato's room. He blew the door open, and Gato woke from his sleep as his scrambled up his bed in shock.

"Who are you?!"

"I am but a Ghost." And with that, Fox pulled out a senbon, and killed the man.

"Throw the man into the river. Gorilla, Eagle, Crow, divide the money and give it to the villagers. Ration the food and spread it evenly amongst the hungry. Hang Gato's body in nothing but his undies on a pole. We've been over this, chop chop!"

Tomorrow, the village would celebrate a lot, and Team 7 would help until the bridge was over. They called it "Miracle Midnight Bridge".

A week later, a traveler would enter the village, and offer self defense lessons for free. He would also establish farming routes and fishing centers. Within a year, the small village became known as the village of "Shinobi Merchants", and a place of commerce and peace.

They also became Konoha's ally, and the mysterious traveler who made the village so prosperous disappeared forever.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Fox looked from afar at the Village Hidden in the Waves. He smiled a bit as he saw Tazuna being overwhelmed by business offers, and Inari running around and enjoying life.

A rustle was heard behind him, and Zabuza was there.

"You did that boss, that's all you."

"You don't need to tell me, but I appreciate the praise."

"Good one."

They watched in silence, after all, they were going to have to bomb it tomorrow with a certain eccentric art lover.

Akatsuki orders.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Ooooo cliff hanger huh? That stings, it hurt me when I proofread it. And by proofread, I mean catching my mistakes then being too lazy to fix them.

Soo, I'm going to run before I guy throws a tomahawk at me,

BBBBBYYYYYYYyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeee…….

C ya later.

Good night, or morning.

Later
