Chapter 5

Itachi Uchiha and Hana Inuzuka part 4

"That is a very valuable lesson," said the future Hinata" A lesson you will teach Shikamaru in a few years Asuma-sensei."

"Really does he listen to it?" team 10 leaders asked

"Yes, he does," she answered and they turned their attention to the screen

A FEW YEARS LATER

This time instead of seeing the Uchiha compound they saw the Inuzuka compound inside of a room where an older version of Hana Inuzuka sleeping in her bed when suddenly her balcony door opened and a masked ANBU entered.

"That person is Weasel," said Naruto

"Who?" asked every other member of the Konoha 12 and a few others

"Weasel was one of the ANBUs I sent to protect Naruto when he was younger, he had to leave for a mission a few years ago," said Hizuren Sarutobi

"Yeah I still remember the day he left he came to tell me goodbye and told me that someone else would be taking his place, someone he trusted," said Naruto

"Lord Hokage why does a young child needs the protection of an ANBU guard," asked the Mizukage and all the other Kages ever curious yes Gaara and Killer B had ANBU guards but they weren't only the Jinchuriki they were also the son and the brother of a Kage.

"Because no one of us was allowed to adopt him so we could protect him within our clans so Lord Hokage was forced to put an ANBU squad to protect him," said Inoichi

"You wanted to adopt me?" Naruto's face at that exact moment the look on his face was one of pure shock he had thought that no one wanted.

Inoichi kneeled so he could be eye-level with the boy that was his best friend's son" Of course we wanted to but we couldn't move because of the civilian council forbite it and we couldn't do it without reviling your father's name that was something we couldn't do."

"Why couldn't you reveal his father's name?" asked Ino her father but it was Shikaku who answered" Because no one of them," he pointed to the other four Kages" would not hesitate to kill him if they discovered that little fact." he finished glaring at the other Kages if it wasn't for that the son of his brother in all but blood would be living with them and be a happy little boy with a family

"We would not kill a little boy because who his father was?" said the Tsuchikage but every Clan head crossed their arms not believing him one bit

"Was my father a bad person?" asked Naruto a bit sad

"No, he was a great Shinobi but he made enemies during his life."

Minato ever the peacekeeper asked the Future Hinata" Do you think they would do it?"

Everyone was curious about as to what the answer would be" To be honest I don't think the Mizukage, Tsugikage, and Raikage would not kill him as for the Kazekage I don't know but he is the person who was willing to kill his own son because he couldn't control the One tail beast. Which is not his fault the seal was not as great as that that you made for Naruto."

"Sorry who is the Jinchuriki of the one tail?" asked Minato

"I am," said Gaara with an emotionless tone

Minato moved forwarded and like it did every time it sensed danger the sand started forming to protect the boy but this time it transformed in the shape of a woman who spoke in an angelic voice

"Stop right there I am not allowing you to hurt my son," she told the young Hokage

"I would never hurt a little boy. I want to have a look at his seal and to see if I can help him he looks like he hasn't slept in a long time and a defective seal can cause problems for him later on."

The woman did not look convinced she touched the man's forehead and his eyes turned red a minute later she was crying" I am sorry you had to lose your sons. I now understand that you would not hurt him like you not allow anyone to hurt your own sons."

"You can stay and watch if it makes you feel any better," he said smiling

Everyone else was shocked the Suna shinobi because no one had been able to communicate with her and convince that they could be trusted with her son, the shinobi from Konoha because she had said that their beloved Hokage had sons while the other shinobi were shocked that someone would go so close to a Jinchuriki.

"Can I see the seal please?" he asked the young boy and then his siblings when they stepped forward to protect him

"How do we know that you will make it better and not worse?" Temari asked glaring at the Blond Hokage

"Naruto would you mind coming here?" the Jinchuriki of the nine tails moved forward" Can you show them the seal in your stomach?"

"Of course, Lord Hokage," the young blond said and no one noticed the older one flinch

The seal was a masterpiece and even Mito who during her life was known as the Seal Mistress was impressed" I won't be able to do a seal that good because it requires the sacrifice of the person doing it but I can make something almost that good."

" What makes that seal that good?" asked Temari

"Well I made it that way so that the tailed beast cannot be taken from his hot by anyone only in two cases: A descendant of mine removes the seal or someone with powers similar to the Sage of Six Paths."

He started working with the seal all the while taking to Gaara's mother" Don't worry your son is going to be fine."

"It's a mother's job to worry. I believe your mother is the same way?"

"You are not wrong I became the Hokage and she still acted around me like I was a five years old child," he said the young woman laughed" You know you remind me a lot of her. Brave, strong and strong-willed."

"Really she sounds like a great woman," said the woman

"She is. She raised me all alone when she was basically a child herself. "the stopped speaking and smiled" I am done now it should be fine."

"Thank you, Lord Hokage," said Karura

"Please call me Minato," he said smiling and moved to where he was before

"Karura do you want to see your children's future," asked the Sage of the Six Paths

"Yes, I would love it," she said smiling making the god-like figure smile

The young Inuzuka heiresses woke up rubbing her eyes and look at the person who was standing in her balcony" Hey Itachi, Did the mission ended?"

The weasel mask was removed and they saw the young man that was Itachi Uchiha he had changed over the years he was taller, his skin was still pale and he was extremely handsome what had changed the most were his eyes they had lost the spark they had in his childhood and were now older.

He smiled sadly at his best friend and said:" Yes the Uchiha Clan besides me and Sasuke are dead."

She got up and went to her friend and hugged him" You know you did not have to do it someone else could have killed them."

But he just shook his head and said" NO I am the heir well now the Head to the Uchiha Clan and it is my duty to do it." he stopped to take a breath" Will you do me a favor?"

While he was talking Hana was undressing and changing her clothes from her sleeping ones to the ones an ANBU wore" Can you not undress in front of me?"

"You have seen me in fewer clothes Itachi is not something new. Now stop acting like a blushing virgin we both know you are far from it," she said with a teasing tone

Minato turned to Itachi with a disapproving glance and said:" I sure hope the person she is talking about is not Hana herself I would be very disappointed in you."

Itachi raised his hands and said" I promise you Uncle Minato that's not true"

"Ok I believe you," he said

"And besides Minato, you know that Itachi does not like girls" Said Fugaku calmly like he hadn't just said something that most fathers would have a problem with. For most shinobi it was easier to accept because of their chakra male Shinobi could get pregnant just as well as a female one but some of the strictest clans still had a problem with it.

"Y-you knew that?" asked Itachi a little afraid at the answer

"Of course, I knew that I am your father and I have two pair of eyes and a working brain," looking at his oldest and seeing the look in his face he continued" And I don't mind if that's who you're interested in as long as you are happy. It's the same for you Sasuke Ok." the younger Uchiha nodded he was shocked this was not the father he knew the cold one that never cared about his children's lives and pushed his oldest son too much.

Itachi smiled the fact that his father approved meant a lot to him Hana hit him and said:" Didn't I told you that Uncle Fugaku wouldn't mind and that you were being stupid."

"Yes, I remember Uncle Minato always said that different from every other member from the Uchiha Clan dad not only had a brain but he knew how to use it."

Fugaku glared at his brother in all but blood and said" Good to know you have such trust in me Minato." making all of his friends laugh and Hizuren, Shizune and Tsunade smile they had missed this side of them.

Suddenly the door opened and Tsume Inuzuka entered the room with a kunai in her hand but the moment she saw who was there lowered the kunai and smiled" Ah Itachi it's just you, I thought it was someone else. Did the mission end?"

Itachi looked sad and said," Yes Aunt Tsume it is done the Uchiha Clan is dead."

"What are you going to do now?" asked the Head of the Inuzuka Clan

"I have heard about a group called the Akatsuki that aims to capture the Jinchuriki and I think I will join them." he was stopped by Hana who hit him

"You are joining a group a people who want to capture Jinchuriki did you forget that you promised Uncle Minato to protect Naruto with your life."

"I will not join them to capture Jinchuriki but I will join them to know their plans and protect him better. I would never hurt him or the Village you know that."

Tsume walked forward and touched his cheek" You are a brave boy Itachi and one day Konoha will know what you did for them. I know it."

"I am not looking to be a hero Aunt," Itachi said smiling" But thank you."

He was ready to leave when she stopped him and said" Wait, a second Itachi. Here" she said taking out a few scrolls for him" This one has food to last you a while," she said giving him one" This one has clothes" giving him another one" This one has medicine while the last one has money."

"You have been planning this for how long?" asked Itachi smirking

"For as long as you have been having the mission to kill your clan," said Tsume" Those things are from everyone and don't forget if you ever need anything just come to any one of us and we will help you any way we can."

"I Know that thanks. But I need to leave now before ANBU start looking for me. There are only so many fake tracks Kakashi could put before they find the real ones."

"I thought Raidō, Genma, and Iwashi were supposed to help him with that."

Everyone who had been in the search party for Itachi at the time turned to the shinobi in question and glared at them" WE FOLLOWED FAKE TRAILS FOR DAYS." they all yelled

"It was supposed to look legit if Itachi had any chance of joining the Akatsuki," explained Kakashi not guilty at all.

"Yes, they were but I thought it would be better for them to go and protect Naruto with me going out of the Village and Kakashi helping me he will be unprotected," Itachi said
"Ok I will replace them and protect Naruto while they help you," she said taking her ANBU mask which was that of a wolf.

"Wait both you and Sasuke's brother were my ANBUs," said Naruto

"No not only the two of us there was also Kakashi, Raidō, Genma, and Iwashi. The six of us were the ANBUs assigned to you," said Hana

"But why if the Hokage really wanted to protect Naruto why didn't he assigned more ANBU to protect him," said Sakura slightly worried and the others nodded

"Because they were the best and most importantly, they were loyal..." answered the Hokage

"WHAT DOES THE LOYALTY TO THE VILLAGE HAS TO DO WITH NARUTO'S SAFETY," yelled Ino

"Ino dear you got all that wrong. They were not loyal to the village they were loyal to Naruto's father that is the main reason they were chosen they would put Naruto's safety above all else." said her father that calmed her and the others down.

"Ok Hana I will leave that to you," Itachi said getting ready to leave

"Wait, Itachi," said Hana" Take this," she said giving the Itachi another headband" and change your headband with this."

"Why?" asked Itachi

"Because your headband is important for you so if you are asked to ruin the one you are wearing you won't be ruing the ones that are important for you," said Hana

"How owned that one?" asked Itachi raising his eyebrow

"No one the Hokage gave to me and asked me to give to you."

"Ok" removing his own headband and taking the other one" Can you make sure this one is safe?"

"Of course, when you return in the Village after your mission ends, I will give it back to you," said Hana taking the headband and hugging the young man in front of her" Be safe Itachi. And don't worry I will protect your brother and Naruto for you."

After that was done Itachi Uchiha left the village disappearing into the night.

"Hana before you go and protect Naruto remove from the compound everything that can be traced back to Itachi and hid them into one of the deepest rooms in here when you are done removes everything that can be traced back Itachi from every other compound and hid them in the same place."
"Of course mom but where will you go?"

"I and the others will go to the Uchiha compound and take everything that has any sentimental value and everything that could compromise the identity of Naruto's father from there and we will bring them here to hide them. Them you go to Naruto's house to protect him."

"That was my plan mom. And don't worry I will make sure no one sees me."

"I wasn't going to say that I trust you, Hana, you are an amazing kunoichi" Tsume smiled

"Thanks, mom and don't worry I will make sure Naruto will be fine don't worry. It's the only mission I have."

"How do you made money if your only mission is to protect Naruto" asked TenTen she was one of the only one from her friends who was not a member of a Clan so she did not know how that worked" Or were you being paid to protect him" she asked making all of his friends glare at her

"No that's not true I am the heiress of the Inuzuka Clan I don't really need to work I like it. And besides, I would do anything for Naruto and I would protect him even if it wasn't appointed by the Hokage to do it," she said slightly offended that they would think something like that.

"Why?" asked Naruto shocked

"You are very important to me," said Hana

"And that was the reason I sent you as one of the ANBUs to protect him," said the Hokage
