Chapter 15 Demon Tower
Tsunade starts to stir in her sleep as she then waking up scream out: "GAH! That's hurt!"
Tsunade then looks around seeing she is now resting at the Hokage Tower as Shizune lean back surprise.
"Um… are you okay Tsunade-sama?" Asked Shizune
"Ouch… where am I Shizune?" Asked Tsunade looking around
"You are at Hokage Tower Tsunade-sama." Said Shizune
"Hokage Tower?" Asked Tsunade as she then recalls the bet "Wait… where are Naruto and that little brat with him?"
"Um… after that girl carrying you here, she and Naruto leave to the Hokage Office. Jiraiya-sama said that Naruto is asking Hokage-sama to give him the Sannin travel privilege." Said Shizune
"Sannin travel privilege? How did he know about that?" Asked Tsunade surprise
"According to Jiraiya-sama, that is what Hokage-sama promise Naruto when he brings you back. He said Naruto don't feel like staying in Konoha more than he wants besides missions." Said Shizune
"Sensei promise him that?" Asked Tsunade surprise as she scratching her head as she said: "Since I'm here, guess that's mean I lost after all."
"Yes…" Said Shizune
"… Might as well meet sensei and getting this over with." Said Tsunade standing up
Meanwhile with Naruto:
"Your candidate is here. Now… would you give me what you promise?" Asked Naruto holding his hand out
"… I can't convince you to think this through, am I?" Asked Hiruzen tiredly
"Nope." Said Naruto
Hiruzen could only sigh as he then presents him everything related to the Uzumaki clan. Naruto then checks them as he then putting them in his 'inventory' to check them later on. He then gave Naruto a form and said: "This is the Sannin travel privilege. With this, you don't have to worry about being mark as a missing-nin." 'Well… more like to save some idiots in this village thinking that they can take you on to be exact…' Though Hiruzen at the last part
"Thanks, old man. Now if you excuse me…" Said Naruto smiling as he then sinks into shadow and disappeared
(Gensokyou)
"So these are the Uzumaki heritage?" Asked Reimu looking at the book
"I must say though… these are quite a detail and complex sealing art. Maybe this will have the answer I looking for." Said Alice with interested
"Oi… this is family heritage. It's not for sale Alice." Said Naruto taking the book away
"It's not a big deal. I'm going to be wed in your family after all…" Said Alice
"Eh..?" Said Naruto turns surprised
"Oh… it's nothing!" Said Alice waving her hand
Reimu just glares at Alice at that.
"But still… now that's over, I need to resupply." Said Naruto
"For what?" Asked Alice
"For training of course. I'm going for a long trip Reimu." Said Naruto
"Long trip? Oh… you mean 'that' huh?" Said Reimu realized
"That?" Asked Alice
"He just needs to go on a training trip only." Said Reimu
"So then, if you excuse me…" Said Naruto running off
"Wait! What about all of this…?" Said Reimu looking at a pile of Books
"Haiz… always leave work for me. That idiot…" Said Reimu standing up as she then took the book away from Alice much to her dismay
"Consider this is the punishment. All of us agree to not peep a word about 'that' agreement. Remember?" Asked Reimu looking dagger at Alice making her laugh lightly turning her head away
Meanwhile, Naruto is now standing in the Lost Forest as he looks at the key in his hand.
"Ready Kurama?" Asked Naruto
"You have to ask? Let's do this." Said Kurama as Naruto using the key as the 'Gate' open then Naruto stepped on it.
Naruto steps inside the 'Gate' as he appeared at the same place that he killed the King Cerberus. He putting his hand on the gate as he then pushes it then go inside.
A quest has arrived
"Quest?" Asked Naruto
Quest: Collecting demon souls (Part 1)
Demon castle filled with demons. Hunt down demons to collect their souls.
Requirement: 10000
Reward: Item of your choosing
Bonus Stats
Hidden reward
"Heh… This is not bad at all." Said Naruto impresses as Naruto then walk inside the tower to see…
"What the? Why am I outside?" Asked Naruto
"This is some kind of… space-time manipulate work. I don't know whoever make this dungeon, but they must be good." Said Kurama
"Yukari?" Asked Naruto
"No. She could but she's too lazy." Said Kurama
"Yeah… I can see that." Said Naruto chuckled
"We got company kid." Said Kurama
True to Kurama word, many demons appeared and the alarm appeared.
You can obtain one soul per demon. But demons at the higher floors had multiple souls.
"Well then… since you are working so hard to welcome me, I guess I have to accept it then." Said Naruto charging at the demons as he summons out his army as well
(Konoha)
Konoha now buzzing with action as the Fifth Hokage had appeared. As now, Tsunade is meeting with her sensei… Hiruzen
"Welcome back Tsunade." Said Hiruzen smiling
"Cut the chit chat. I want to know that why did you let Naruto going through villagers assassination attempted… twice?!" Said Tsunade slammed her hand on the table
Hiruzen could only do long breathing on his pipe as he then said: "He told you huh? I guess this is my fault. If only I didn't let the councils stopping me…"
"The councils? Since when those buffoons have a say in this?" Asked Tsunade
"Back then… Naruto is still a civilian so I can't do anything at all." Said Hiruzen
"Screw that! Attacking an innocent child is wrong no matter what!" Said Tsunade
"That's why I want you to come back Tsunade. I'm too old now and I need your help to keep them in line in my stead." Said Hiruzen
"Sensei… you do realize that being guilty won't make him forgive you, right?" Asked Tsunade deadpanned
"I know. I had a long talk with him. He said he won't destroy Konoha but he won't risk his life for it. That's why… the Sannin travel privilege is the only thing I could think of." Said Hiruzen
"At least you know how to doing thing right… for once." Snort Tsunade
"hahaha…" Sweatdrops Hiruzen
(At the dungeon)
Naruto is advancing toward the other floors as he keeps on collecting the souls.
"But still… what a waste." Said Naruto looking at the dead demon's body
Extract Shadow is impossible since the Mana had been contaminated
"I guess that's mean your Necromancy won't work on some opponents. Or is it due to this dungeon?" Said Kurama thinking
"Thinking about that later. The big guy is here." Said Naruto as a large demon that is the Boss of the 50th floor appeared. On his head read: The ruler of the Lower Floors, Avaricious Vulcan
His Shadows soldiers make a short work at the minions but then the Boss moves fast making Naruto dodge as it then destroys Naruto army.
"What the? How in the world this thing so fast?" Asked Naruto surprise
"Monsters and demons never follow common sense at all kid. I mean… have you sense a fox that can spat out charka destroying everything?" Said Kurama
Naruto then remembers that and the power of the Gensokyou residents as he nodded: "Point taken there."
The Boss then charges at Naruto again but it was then tied by Hashirama wood forest draining its strength. Tobirama then doing multiple hand signs and casting a large water Jutsu slamming the Boss at full force. The Boss then suddenly uses 'Wrath' as it then broke free.
"What the? Isn't that the same skill as that stupid dog?" Asked Naruto surprise
"Worry about that later. He's coming!" Said Kurama
Naruto then using his Abyss Chain then as the Boss prepares to swing its club down only to be bound by the chain. The Boss roaring as it tries to break free but multiple chains appeared tying it down. Hashirama then uses the Wood Dragon Jutsu slamming onto it and Tobirama then using Water Blade jutsu slicing its hand destroying the clubs.
Seeing the Boss unable to escape, Naruto then carried by Igris as he then using 'Sprint' and 'Accelerate'. Igris then throwing him like throwing a spear as Naruto boosted with speed buffs holding the 'Red Queen' revving up and then piercing the Boss head like a hot knife through butter.
The beast losing its head falling down as purple blood spurting out.
You have killed the Boss
You have level up X3
"Okay… let's see what we got." Said Naruto looks at the loots
Item: World Tree's Fragment
Rank: ?
Type: Ingredient
A leftover piece of wood of the 'Vulcan's club', which was created from a world tree branch. A high-quality ingredient for magic item
"Wow… Alice, Marisa, and Patchouli would have a field day with this thing." Said Naruto impresses
"Maybe you could trade this to that Scarlet Devel witch in exchange for having fun with those… 'fun' bags she has." Said Kurama gigging
"Kurama… First, I'm not that desperate. Second, Reimu will skin me alive if I do that." Said Naruto shudder at the last part
Item: Demon Monarch's Earring

Type: Magic Item
An orb created by hardening blood of a high-rank demon, Vulcan. X2 magic Damage
"X2 magic damage? I wonder…" Said Naruto looks at Tobirama as he hands it to him

Tobirama then using the Water Dragon as it was double the size from before as it demolished the whole field.
"… Wow…" Said Naruto took the orb as he looks at it.
"Forget that tree fragment. This thing could make those three throws themselves to you." Said Kurama shocked
"And I can't let anyone in Konoha know this. Great Shinobi War IV might break out if the word is out." Said Naruto putting it on the inventory fast.
Vulcan horn X2
"Material huh? Well, I should be able to sell them for some cash." Said Naruto as he puts them inside the inventory and continues to collect the souls
(Konoha)
"No Kakashi. I don't know where's Naruto at all." Said Tsunade as she brought Kakashi out of the Genjutsu
"I see… I want to congratulate him for advancing to Jounin but it seems like he always busy." Said Kakashi chuckling
"That's an understatement…" Snort Tsunade as she heard about the Akatsuki from Jiraiya. She had to send him flying for only to train Naruto now when he knew for a while.
"But… do you know when will he come back?" Asked Kakashi
"You have to ask him yourself Kakashi. You are his teacher after all." Said Tsunade walking out
"Yes… Tsunade-sama." Said Kakashi
(Back to Naruto)
"Now then… I guess this is pretty much done in this floor huh?" Asked Naruto twirling his Dagger as he sitting on a pile of demons bodies as the alarm report that he had completed the quest.

"An item of choosing… I could try another weapon but…" Said Naruto ponders "Curse Random Box"
Appeared in Naruto hand is a box as he then opens it to reveal a key. The key is not like any other key. It looks… quite old and twisted. Feel like it's something… out of this world. He could only know this much since the all of its info are a question mark.

"This… this is…" Said Naruto shocked
"Wow... Many would trade anything for this kind of potion. But you can't revive the Yondaime since he is sealed to the Shinigami though." Said Kurama
"I know… but there's one other that I could." Said Naruto
"… Your mother. Of course. Your mother died normally. If you use this…" Said Kurama
"I can see her again." Finished Naruto shedding tear
"But first, you need to head back kid. If there is such a treasure, then the Boss on the highest floor will not be easy." Said Kurama
"Yeah… you're right. I need to go back and prepare." Said Naruto as he's ready to train as his life depends on it
(Gensokyou)
"wait… you found a recipe that can create a potion… THAT CAN BLOODY REVIVE THE DEAD?!" Shout out Reimu
"Easy easy Reimu." Said Naruto holding his hand up
"Great… another problem occurs. Do you have any idea how many peoples would love to get their hand on something like that?" Asked Reimu
"I know… but this is the only chance that I can see my mother again. And it's not something require sacrifice or any shady ritual, all I need is something belong to her and I can do it!" Said Naruto excited
"I have no idea what to say to your ability Naruto. Farming for items and magic material are one thing, but this… just how in the world did you get something like this?!" Said Reimu massaging her temple
"I don't know… but I sure as hell not complaining!" Said Naruto
"Okay… then what are you going to do now?" Asked Reimu
"First, getting some money for equipment. If I have to fight the Boss up on the highest floor, then I have to prepare. And second… train like my life depends on it." Said Naruto leaving
Naruto then heads back to Konoha as he resupplies some ninja tools. As he then leaving the store, he then clashed on to Moegi and Udon.
"Boss! We have been looking all over for you!" Said Moegi
"What's wrong you two?" Asked Naruto
"It's Konohamaru! After he heard about the Fifth Hokage, he had been locked himself in the storage room. Lady Tsunade about to bust the door open and punish him." Said Udon
"I see… Then hold on to me you two." Said Naruto as he sinks in the shadows with the two.
At the storage, as Konohamaru still hiding inside as Naruto with Moegi and Udon appeared out.
"What are you doing… Konohamaru?" Asked Naruto
"Boss! Where have you been?" Asked Konohamaru in tear
"Okay okay… get over with the tear. Now tell me, why do you suddenly doing this?" Asked Naruto
"… my grandfather…" Said Konohamaru
"Huh?" Asked Naruto
"My grandfather! How could he do that?! How am I suppose to beat him and take his Hokage title now when he giving it to someone else?!" Said Konohamaru
"… Haiz. Konohamaru. The old man is not getting any younger at all. He may look good as new like you see him now. But to be honest, if I didn't interfere, then he would have died." Said Naruto
"How would you know?!" Said Konohamaru
"That's because I do. I suppose I should tell you this. Due to my act at the Chunin Exam, I have been promoting to Jounin by him." Said Naruto chuckling
"Jou… nin?" Asked Konohamaru looks at Naruto slowly
"Wow! SO COOL!" Said Moegi
"Does that mean you will become our sensei when we're graduated?" Asked Udon
"Well… that depends." Said Naruto scratching his head "But anyway… Konohamaru, you are still young so there's not much you don't know. You are still a small seed of the big Konoha tree. That title only for the one that had to grow into a big tree that settled all of you." Said Naruto poking Konohamaru head
"So trust me. You are not ready for that yet. But since the old man now retired, how about asking him to help your training? I'm sure if you train hard, you still can take the hat of that old hag by yourself." Said Naruto rubbing Konohamaru head smiling
"Big brother…" Said Konohamaru in tear
"So don't worry about it. I mean, isn't this better? Your grandfather now can spend time with you. Isn't that what you want?" Asked Naruto
Konohamaru then rubbing his tear as he then said: "You're right. I… Konohamaru Sarutobi will declare that someday I'll take that hat from that old hag… by myself!"
As soon as Konohamaru said that, the door was blasted open by Tsunade punch. The chunin outside hugging each other as they look at her frightened.
"Yo old hag. Took you long enough." Said Naruto smiling
"This brat…" Said Tsunade shaking her fist. "Anyway… when and how did you get in here?"
"Sorry… a magician never reveals their secret." Said Naruto winking at her as he puts a finger to his lip as he then sinking to his Shadows dragging Konohamaru, Moegi, and Udon with him.
"Wait, brat!" Said Tsunade as she was too late
"DAMN IT!" Said Tsunade carry a bookcase throwing outside breaking the wall
Back outside:
"Wow… that hag has quite the temple there." Said Naruto looking at the bookcase being throw out
"Thanks, big brother." Said Konohamaru happy
"Next time, don't try something that's stupid again, okay?" Asked Naruto rubbing his head
"What are you going to do now Boss?" Asked Moegi
"Just training I guess. I'm here to resupply myself. Now then… run along you two and later." Said Naruto sinks into his Shadow and disappeared
"… Boss is cool huh?" Asked Konohamaru smirking
"I want to be like him in the future." Said Udon
"Then we better study hard. We might get him as our sensei after all." Said Moegi
"That's right. Let's do this!" Said Konohamaru cried out as the other two did the same as they run through the village
Naruto sitting on the tree as he looks at the three running with full energy as he chuckled.
"Honestly…" Said Naruto as he then disappeared
(Many days later)
The ceremony had begun as the crowd had gathered at the Hokage Tower as Naruto saw the old man, the two elders and Jiraiya standing behind Tsunade.
"From this day forward, I am now Konoha's… Fifth Hokage!" Said Tsunade loudly as the crowd roared out.
Naruto after seeing that as he sinks back to his Shadow disappeared.
