Question: Nice story. However There is one thing that I dont understand. There should not be a Kanokage. as the title Kage is given only to the leaders of teh largest Ninja Villages.
They are Hokage, Mizukage, Raikage, Kazekage and Tsuchikage. For Fire, Water, Lightneing, Wind and Stone respectivly
Answer: Thanks for compliment, for the question. I will not answer that now because it will spoil the story, but you will find out in the future I promise you that!

Q: To compare, how do newly graduated Hidden Valley shinobi match up to the other villages system of ranking? (ie. gennin, chunnin, jounin, anbu, sannin, kage)
Looking forward to seeing more from you!
Answer: Some of them could only take on genins, while others would most likely get beating of their life.
Well that's all the quetions. Now enjoy the people.
Chapter 2
Naruto Pov
The Grass country is a pretty interesting place, it doesn't have a lot recent technology but they did a lot farming in this country. Everywhere I go, I see rice fields.
This road should take me to the Hidden Grass village, but it sure is taking very long time to get there. I wonder how the others doing? Are they at destination or are still traveling.
I stop to take a look on my map. According to the map Hidden Grass Village is only an hour away. Oh well I am getting close to the town so I might as well lay down relax a bit.
I got off the road and headed to the soft grass so I can lie down for a bit. I thought about Hidden Leaf, who were my parent's there and what were doing now. I remember Hitaro-sensei saying that the people abandon me, but not my parents. He told that I have the legendary Fox Demon Kyuubi sealed inside me. So many questions to ask and, so mnay to be answered.
"Ryoko wait up!"
I looked up to see where is the voice coming from. A girl around my age was sprinting fast down my direction. She had black hair tied as a ponytail, she had green emerald eyes and her flesh was light. She wore a white sleeveless kimono, which stops three centimeters above her knees. Her face had a serious and determination expression spread across it. When she got closer she got into a position with two kunais, one in each hand.
"You! What is your business in this country and what village are you from?"
I looked blankly at her while wondering what's going on. Suddenly it hit me. I totally forgot to change into my regular clothing; I have been wandering in my shinobi uniform for a month. No wonder people gave me strange looks in the past...
"Are you going answer or do I have to force it out of you."
I immediately snap out of my thoughts and think up of an excuse.
"I'm just traveling and I was taught by a independent nin."
Then two more grass genins came, one was a male who had spiky red hair who wore a gray coat and black shorts. The other was a female who had green hair with short pigtails, she wore a dark green sleeveless shirt with light blue shorts .
"You know you should really slow down for us, we not top rookies like you." Male said while while breathing really hard.
"Yeah Ryoko. Uh who's he?" the green hair said while pointing at me.
"Wow cool outfit!" the male genin shouted while giving two thumbs up.
"Uh thanks." I replied.
"Careful he could be the one who stole the forbidden scroll." The one called Ryoko staring at me with accusation.
"But it isn't him"
"How do you know that?'
"Cause the ones that stole the scroll had skull masks."
Skull mask!? Could they mean the enemy ninja clan known as Assai! Suddenly a kunai wrapped with an exploding tag hit the ground where we are standing. It exploded sending everyone grunting or screaming back few feet away from the explosion. I flipped back on my foot looked where kunai came from. I was right three shinobis with skull mask wearing black and purple uniforms stood there in front of us.
One armed with claws.
Another with a sword.
And the final one with nunchucks.
"A Hidden Valley shinobi." One shouted.
"Good lets kill him before we leave." Another exclaimed
I try to draw my sword out but one threw kunai at it and knocking away from me.
"You won't be needing that anymore, since your going to hell pretty soon." He ended with a wicked cackle.
Naruto Pov EndsThe three Assai ninjas charged at Naruto with great speed. Naruto quickly jump on top of one using one of him as a spring, which lifted him to the air. While he was in the air he threw multiple shurikens at them. Two of them dodge them; the one that was used as a spring got hit at the back of the leg.
He gave a grunt of pain and quickly jumped into a tall grass field. The one with the nunchucks charged at Naruto when he landed. The man swung his nunchucks ferociously at Naruto, Naruto had a bit of hard time avoiding each swings.
Finally he saw an opening and immediately took a kunai threw into the spot. The opponent stopped at his tracks and fell down to the ground.
Naruto kicks up the nunchucks and started show off a bit swinging it around. The last swing hits him straight in the forehead.
"Ow!" After that, rubbed his head and got back to battle position.
"Your pretty good for a little runt. But I'm a lot stronger and faster than you!" with those words he charged at the young nin, he swung his sword at young ninja.
Naruto barley avoided that slash from the sword. He jumped in the air just in time, however the enemy also jumped in the air kick him down to the ground. Then fall towards Naruto with his sword, the blade pierce through young shinobi's heart.
"AAAUUGHHH!"
"Ha ha ha, that was too easy!"
The enemy laughed, but soon the celebration ended as the body of Naruto puffed into smoke leaving behind a wooden log.
"What! But how! Damn it where is that little brat!"
"Behind you."
The infuriated nin turned around but was too late. Six Narutos attacked him, one kicked him in the stomach. Then two of them came in and started striking him with their nunchucks, and then another two kicked him in the air. Finally the last Naruto jumped into the air, gather all the power he can get and struck into the skull of his enemy. The man fell and slammed onto the ground creating a small crater.
Naruto looked around to see if the opponent with claws was still around, he sensed no presence other than three grass nin and the two downed Assai members.
He got rid of all of his clone.
When he concluded that third man ran away, he went to pick up his sword, which was lying four feet away from him. Just when he was about to touch his sword, he felt a sharp swift pain scratched across his back. He fell to the ground grunting in agony, then a feet stomp on his back. He turned his head to see that it was the third shinobi, but he had crazed look in his eyes.
"Even I returned with the scroll, I would faced the humiliation having my own team defeated by a mere 12 year old." Then the skull ninja raised his left claw.
"BURN IN HELL YOU LITTLE SHIT!" as screamed he thrust his claw for the kill.
(Naruto Pov)
This is it. I really ticked off this guy. I was ready to die until that girl Ryoko kicked him in the face. The guy fell backwards by couple feet, but he got back and screamed with anger. Then the red hair shinobi started making seals and exucuted his grass technique
The next thing happen, grass from the ground started to cover the crazed clawed guy, he desperately tried to get grass off of him but more and more latched on to him. Then a the other girl threw some kind of chemical in a bottle at him, moments later the guy fell down and stopped moving.
The girl named Ryoko helped me up; I asked what did the other girl do to ninja.
"Oh I mixed up some various herbs which will stun him for a long time." She responded with a cheerful tone.
"That was some nice moves you got there. You got to teach me those." The red hair boy patted my shoulder very hard, which hurt a little.
"Thank you for your help, but just who are you."
I turned and saw the girl named Ryoko. This time she showed a blank expression, and her voice was a little bit kinder.
"My name is Uzamaki Naruto, you guys are from Hidden Grass Village, can you take me there?"
The green hair came up to me. "How did you know we were from Hidden Grass?"
When this question was asked Ryoko nodded with a sigh, while the other slapped his forehead.
"What?" The green hair girl said innocently.
(In a Grass Country Cemetery)
The tombstones within the cemetery scatter around while the tall trees covers the sky making the place look dark. Two men were there, one dress in dark ragged clothing with long greasy hair, which covered his face only revealing one of eyes and part of his mouth. He has light green skin which can be seen through his bandages around his body. The other man stood seven feet tall and wore a dark cloak, which cover most of his body. He wore a hood and a iron mask which it's design as a regular human face.
A shinobi that dressed like the three men that attacked Naruto appeared behind them. The shinobi bowed down and started spoke all information, which he learned today.
"So the three shinobis I sent failed to do their duty." Then man in the iron mask spoke in a metallic voice.
"Hai my lord" responded the nin.
"Shall we dispose the survivor?"
"No. Continue the experiment. One forbidden scroll is not going stop this event."
"Hai" the nin soon disappeared.
"Yako."
"Yessss!" the green skinned man responded with a slight insanity.
"Carry on with the plan. I am going to the wave country."
"What if that silly valley fly comes back and buzz around again!"
"Let it fly around, besides entire flies from the valley will soon meet their end."
"Very welllll massterrrr! It shaalllll be done!" Then Yako started doing back flips away from his boss.
"Soon the two swords of the valley, shall be mine."
(Hidden Grass Village)
Naruto found out his other companion's names, the male was named Kenta Fujiyama while the girl with green hair is Mana Tatsuki.
Ryoko Kiriyama had thanked him for helping them retrieve the scroll and apprehending the three intruders. She also apologized for being so aggressive on him earlier.
"So Naruto where are you going at this moment?" asked Kenta
"To find place to stay at night." responded fox carrier.
"You can stay with me and my aunt, we have extra room."
"Thanks Ryoko. But I can find a motel or something."
"No I insist, after I accused you for being an intruder, this at least I can do for you."
"You don't need to punish yourself."
Suddenly Naruto sensed Hitaro's chakra.
"Please be my guest, I would like you meet my aunt anyways." pleaded Ryoko.
"Alright I be there, just tell me where it is."
"It is white house, down four blocks. You can't miss it."
"Thanks, I got to go do some stuff first, see you soon." With that Naruto ran off.
(Ryoko Pov)
Hmmm this Naruto, he's quite an interesting guy.
"Eh, Ryoko do you have a crush on him"
I felt my face burn up, and turn to Mana. She had the sly smirk on her face.
"No! No! It is nothing like that, I am only being kind!"
I shouldn't have shouted like that.
"Ha! Ha! Ha! Your face doesn't say that!"
"Not you too Kenta!"
My face was flourished with heat; I felt my heart pumping harder then usual.
"Come on Ryoko admit that you're slightly attracted to our mysterious hero."
"Yeah, your face shows it! In fact you're blushing!"
Ah! They're right!
"Your both cruel you know that!"
(End of Ryoko Pov)
The two-grass genin laughed while the other was standing there blushing.
(Some in Hidden Grass Village)
Naruto followed the chakra into a dark alley. He continued until he heard someone quietly say his name. He quickly turns to see it was Hitaro sensei.
"I heard that you had a fight today."
"Yes Hitaro sensei. They were from the Assai clan"
"I am aware of that. I'm going to get straight to point."
Naruto nodded.
"Naruto remember the speech from Kanokage."
"Hai"
"The speech maybe the last words you'll ever hear from Kanokage."
"What!"
"Keep your voice down. Someone might hear us. Kanokage believes that an attack will be launched by an organization called the Gallerian. A man who calls himself the Metal Prophet leads them. He is also called the ruler of the new world. He has a strong belief that if he posses both the Dragon Blade then he can conquer the entire world."
"Okay but what does this have to do with Assai clan."
"Assai clan are puppets of the Gallerian, they use them for drawing information in the shinobi world. The shinobis you have encounter were trying steal the scroll so the Gallerians can conduct an experiment on this Village."
"What kind of experiment?"
Hitaro nodded with left and right. "I am afraid I do not know, but keep your guard up, and do not worry about Hidden Valley. I inform you to come back when it is necessary."
With that Hitaro disappeared.
Naruto decided that he should wander the village for a while before going to Ryoko's home.
(Back to the Cemetery)
It was now nighttime, the moon is full.
Yako was dancing around the cemetery with joy, then a Assai member appeared out of the darkness.
"Yako-sama, we are ready to proceed with the plan."
"Gooood! Then do it! Do it now! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!
The Assai shinobi ran back to meet up with other Assai Member.
"Are really going to go through with this? I mean this is really inhuman."
"Which one would rather go through? Knowing that you are about to do something evil, or go through the torture of the Gallerians for not being obedient."
All the nins remained silent.
"Then it is settled, get scroll out, you guys get on high grounds while I'll do the chanting."
Minutes LaterThe shinobi was reading the scroll loudly while Yako just listen to it, as it was music.
Then ground started shake and rumble while the chant continued on.
Finally he was done, the ground stop shaking too.
"Yako-sama it is best we get to high grounds immediately."
"No! I'll watch from close up!"
"But..."
"You go! I'll staayyy...."
"The man nodded and disappeared.
Moment's later moaning and groaning echoing throughout cemetery. Then ragged corpse started to claw out of their grave, while Yako laughed with excitement.
"Go! Go GOOO! That's right go to your new playmates in....Hidden Grass."
He burst into laughter while the legions of the dead headed towards Hidden Grass.
Moaning filled the night air.
One of the Assai shinobi looked down at undead from a tall tree. Then he spoke to no one in particular but himself.
"Dear god. What have we done?"
