Chapter 2: Welcome Home. The Godaime's Announcement.
Naruto had just come back from an A level mission that he took care of easily. The mission was to take care of raging bandits in the rice country. Apparently, the fuuma clan couldn't handle things and had to call Konoha for help. Naruto returned home as it was almost dark, a week after he left and went straight to the hospital to see his girlfriend, Sakura. It's been two month since that fateful day Naruto asked Sakura out and things were never better. Even though Naruto has been swamped with missions, he still finds time to spend with her every single day unless he's on a mission that takes weeks like the one he just had.
Naruto walked into the hospital and it was busy more than usual. He looked around for Sakura and some villagers told him that there had been a rebellious bout at a local bar the night before and things had gotten out of hand. After the fighting stopped. Some villagers had injuries but there was nothing serious. Just a lot of minor injuries to many people. Naruto wondered what started the bar fight. Just then, Naruto heard a scream and a familiar voice come out from down the hall. Naruto ran down the hall and heard it coming from the left corridor. He found the room and the person he heard earlier. "Ero-Sennin? What are you doing here?" Haha! Naruto? How have you been?" It turns out that it was just Jiraiya being his usual perverted self and he was hitting on the nurse. "I'm fine, but what are you doing in here?" "You heard about the bar fight?" "Yeah, just now when I came, who started it, do you know?" "Well…yeah…I know who…ME!" Naruto dropped in his head in shame as he heard his sensei's reply. "WHAT WERE YOU DOING THAT YOU STARTED A BAR FIGHT THAT INVOLVED VILLAGERS? ARE YOU CRAZY? THIS IS KONOHA, NOT SOME NO NAME PLACE THAT NO ONE HAS EVER HEARD OF, WHAT ARE PEOPLE GOING TO THINK THAT THE ROKUDAIME HOKAGE HAD SUCH A STUPID SENSEI?" Naruto yelled at his sensei's stupidity. "Calm down, I was just being myself…I was just having some fun before my big day." "Big day? What are you talking about?" "Have you noticed that Tsunade has been happier as of late? "Tsunade-sama? Hmm…"
(FLASHBACK one week ago: "Naruto, I'm assigning you this A rank mission because you are most likely bored right now and want some action in your missions. So your mission is simple, the fuuma clan has requested help on raging bandits who have been terrorizing villagers in the rice country. I believe that you had a friend in the fuuma clan, Sasame was it? Or at least that's what your records say. Anyways, get rid of the bandits however you like, don't kill them, contain them, and set things right again. Ok?" "This will be easy, I'll leave as soon as I say good bye to a few people." "Naruto, one more thing, be careful I don't want to see another young ninja die. I've seen too many and I especially don't want to see you gone." Naruto had seen Tsunade cry before but it seemed different than those other times. "Don't worry, I'm the Rokudaime Hokage and I'll take care of everything!" Tsunade had began to smile and grin at the same time. Naruto then remembered when he helped Sasuke rebuild the Uchiha grounds. He remembered that Tsunade didn't yell at him for taking academy students out of class (END FLASHBACK).
"Now, that I think about it, she did seem happier and less grumpy than her usual self. Shizune had also been happier and less demanding of Tsunade to do her work. Ero-sennin, what do you suppose that means? Huh?" "Naruto, you're still as basic as ever. She's happier because she's in love. Just like you and Sakura, I've seen you two, hand in hand, hugging and kissing. Just because Tsunade is old doesn't mean that she still can't fall in love." "Love? Was he serious? If he was with who? And what's this big day?" Naruto thought." "Naruto, you'll understand it better as your relationship with Sakura grows." Naruto didn't understand a thing that Jiraiya was talking about, but he knew that eventually he'll find out. Naruto left Jiraiya's room and told him that if he ever does anything stupid like the bar fight again; as Rokudaime Hokage, he'll give Jiraiya the worse punishment he can think of and there would be no advantage leaning his way. Jiraiya laughed and understood.
Naruto now returned to what he came to the hospital to do originally, find Sakura. Naruto checked her office and found her asleep with her head against the table. He saw her sleeping peacefully, probably tried from all the patients today and stroked her hair a bit. He gave her a kiss and found a blanket. He covered her with it and took the chair by the wall to rest a bit. A few hours later, Sakura woke up to find the blanket around her and Naruto sleeping with his head back against the wall. Sakura gave him a kiss and pulled up a chair beside him. She then covered herself and Naruto to keep them warm for the chilly night. She fell asleep once more and leaned her head against Naruto's shoulder. The next morning, Naruto woke up, with Sakura no where in sight. He found a note placed beside him saying that Sakura went home to shower and change. She also said that she's taking the day off because of the overtime she worked the night before. Naruto smiled and went home himself to clean up.
Meanwhile, Sasuke was in the Hokage's office talking about the Uchiha police department and its restoration. "Why can't I restore the old police force, I am willing to take the title of captain and handle all the subordinates I can gather to join me." Sasuke asked Tsunade. "You can't because in Konoha history, the Uchiha police department only had Uchihas in which all members had the Sharingan. They used the ability to sense dangerous movements and countered accordingly. In Konoha, there are only two existing people with the Sharingan and that's you and Kakashi; Kakashi's busy enough handling new subordinates and organizing Anbu missions, I doubt he'll have time for your police force." "I only suggested it because of the riot that took place the day before yesterday. In the past I've been told that the Uchiha police force handled those little things, and I only wanted to help Konoha out." "I understand; it's natural to think that having the old police force is good, but without members who have your special ability, it's not going to be the same." "I understand, thank you for your time." Sasuke took his leave from the Hokage's office and went back home.
As he was walking home, he saw someone with a mask that he didn't recognize and thought that the person was a foreign ninja who came to find out Konoha's military information. The masked stranger walked towards the old Uchiha grounds and stared for a long time into the rebuild grounds. The stranger took off the mask and revealed long dark blue hair. Sasuke crept closer and continued to follow the stranger where ever she went. The stranger eventually stopped at the house where Sasuke's father's friend lived. The stranger walked in and looked around and seemed to know her way. Sasuke followed her into the house and was stopped instantly as he took his first step into the house. Sasuke turned back and took out a kunai from his side. The stranger also did the same thing and stared at Sasuke deeply. Sasuke didn't know whether or not she was going to attack but took the precaution. Sasuke released his Sharingan and the girl stopped immediately. She placed her weapon back at her side pocket and called out to him. "Uchiha huh? I see that you have it as well." Sasuke was confused but kept his guard up anyways. The girl continued to talk. "There's no need to be so stiff, relax a bit. Welcome to my home." Sasuke realized something was wrong. "Your home? What are you talking about? This is the old Uchiha grounds; I'm the only person who lives in this entire area." "Not anymore, since I'm back." Sasuke was still a little confused and demanded identification information from her or else he'll have to make her. "I told you; don't be so stiff, you'll go crazy that way." "Tell me who you are! I demand to know this instant." "Who, me? My name is…Uchiha Satsuki."
Sasuke couldn't believe his eyes. He calmed down and his Sharingan disappeared too. "What do you mean Uchiha? You can't be; I'm the only true survivor now. There's no way you can actually be an Uchiha." "You want proof I suppose. Alright, but I'm not suppose to use it too long otherwise I get out of control a bit, but I suppose I can show you at least." The girl claiming to be of Uchiha lineage showed Sasuke the proof he needed to trust her words. She closed her eyes and an instant later revealed the Sharingan as well. The girl then turned back to normal with her normal eyes. "There, I gave you proof, now who are you? I remember your face." "I'm Uchiha Sasuke" "Sasuke, that's right, you were the Captain's son and brother to Itachi; the magnificent genius of the Uchiha clan." "You knew of my brother? Then you know what he did to us." "Of course I do, the news was told to me by the Sandaime. I remember you too, your father came over one night for dinner and you came along because he told you to. He told you to play with me as I was lonely studying all the time, but you decided to run off home and train instead." "I did? Sorry about that, but I still don't remember you. "Explain how you are still alive? My brother killed everyone in the Uchiha clan and kept me alive to kill him off one day." "Correction, he killed all the Uchihas who were in Konoha, he didn't kill the ones who were out of Konoha at the time; like me." "You still haven't told me how you're alive and I want to know." "Hmm…well, since you asked so nicely I guess, I'll tell you my past."
(Satsuki's life Story) Sixteen years ago, I was just a five year old kid in the Uchiha clan living my life peacefully. I remember the good days when Itachi would walk through the town and sometimes pat my head. I loved it when he did and I looked up to him in every single way and tried to be just like him in every single way. My father told me the stories of how he graduated from the academy in one year, obtained his Sharingan at age eight and became a Chuunin at age ten. He then became an anbu captain at the age of fourteen. I was amazed by the stories and decided to dedicate my life to Itachi as I looked up to him like I did no one else. I wanted to be just like him, another genius of the Uchiha clan. So I studied every single day and practiced my techniques; and was close to becoming just like him. I also remember that Itachi had a little brother, you who was the same age as me except you weren't as good and determined as I was. I entered the academy the same year you did and I still wasn't good enough to graduate in a year like Itachi. I studied more and more and by my second year at the academy, I was bumped up to the advance class and I graduated in two years at the age of seven. By that time I had obtained my Sharingan too, except it was only the first level and wasn't as powerful as anyone else's.
I was put into a group of three and I was nine years old. There was one mission that was ranked D and we thought it would be easy, except the client turned out to be a farmer who was forced to work for the hidden village of rain and we were ambushed. My sensei and I were the only ones to survive as I saw my teammates slaughtered before my eyes. I wanted to help them but my sensei insisted that we had to leave them behind and told me they knew what the consequences of being ninjas were. We ran as far as we could but they had caught up to us. My sensei told me to run faster and further away, hide if I had to. I understood his orders and left him behind too. He told me to try to get back to Konoha no matter what and watch out for the enemy. I ran away and eventually I heard a scream that was his voice. I knew then that he died in battle. Several days after I escaped, I finally returned to Konoha. The guards at the gate asked me what had happened and brought me directly to the Sandaime. He and I talked for a while about the mission. I cried for a long time telling him that my teammates and my sensei told me to leave because I was an Uchiha; that I would one day be like Itachi and lead the Uchiha clan to greatness.
When the Sandaime heard my story, he asked me if I knew what happened in Konoha recently. I told him that I didn't and that I was on that stupid mission that was actually a set up. He then asked me if I was ok to see something horrible. I understood that the news was bad, but didn't know exactly what the problem was. The Sandaime brought me to the Uchiha grounds and I saw the blood everywhere, the chalk markings and weapons. He escorted me to my house where I saw Konoha ninja carrying out two body bags. The Sandaime told me that Uchiha Itachi murdered everyone in the Uchiha clan except for Sasuke, his little brother; and me. He didn't know that you were out on a mission and he thanked the lord that I wasn't around to see Itachi that way. I cried again knowing that my parents and my entire family were gone. Sandaime-sama held me close and I cried for a long time into his shoulder.
The next day, Sandaime brought me to the hospital and I visited you while you were still traumatized from the attack. Sandaime told me to find you one day as he was called back to his office to handle work. He asked me if I wanted to stay with him and I told me that I needed someone I could trust, someone I could just rely on for the time being. We went back to his office where anbu personnel were talking about the mission taken by an ex-anbu who became a teacher. They were talking about how he and his team of Genins were suppose to escort a man back to the country outside of the hidden village of rain when they were attacked and three out of the four members who were assigned to the mission became KIA. I heard the entire conversation even though I was outside the office door. I got angry and smashed the door open. I marched right in and asked the anbu what they knew about the mission. I demanded an answer from them. The anbu didn't know who I was and the Sandaime told the anbu that I was the fourth member of that team, the one that survived. The anbu turned they're heads to the Sandaime who nodded immediately. The anbu then told me that the man who came to Konoha was truly a man from the country outside of the rain village. He wasn't a ninja and he was just some farmer who was captured and threatened by rain ninja to come to Konoha and lead a team out. They told me that the man had a mission for us that involved his field but he said his workers were injured and needed help from Konoha because the rain ninja didn't take missions like these. I told them that it was true the mission was supposed to be that easy. The anbu then questioned me on what I saw and I told them everything.
Afterwards, the anbu left except for one and the Sandaime asked me to come forward. He told me that he had a personal mission for me who was to be escorted and helped by the anbu leader in the room and his team. He told me that the mission was for revenge and asked me if I wanted to take part in it. I immediately told him I wanted to and that I would do anything to avenge my comrades and sensei that died to protect me. The anbu leader understood that I was still young but I had tremendous skill compared to other Konoha Genin. The anbu leader requested that I'd be promoted to Chuunin level even though I didn't take the exam. The Sandaime agreed and made me a Chuunin. He then told me my mission was ranked an Anbu mission even though I wasn't an anbu myself. He told me that I was to get revenge and attack the ones who set up the mission that got my comrades killed. In order to do that though, he had to erase any record in Konoha that said I ever existed, in other words I was treated like an anbu, a person with no name or identity in Konoha. No record of any sort, from birth, to records in the academy to missions logs. I understood if that was what it took, I'd do it for the sake of my comrades who fell in battle. The Sandaime told me that even if I were to finish my mission, I was not allowed to come back to Konoha as that would screw the records up. The Anbu leader then suggested placing me in a temporary division of Anbu under his leadership in which I could return to Konoha except never to return to the Uchiha grounds. He would then supervise my training and decide whether or not I was cut out to be in Anbu. If he thought I was good enough to be in Anbu, he would make it official and I would be given anbu missions in which I would spend most of my time outside of Konoha. The Sandaime agreed and allowed the anbu leader to take me under his leadership. (End) Since then I've trained under the Anbu leader, became an Jounin and Anbu at age thirteen, had assigned to me Anbu missions, I avenged my comrades and the last few Anbu mission I took, took me eight years to complete. Now I'm back, and I saw that the Uchiha grounds were fixed. I thought someone else fixed it but when I met you, I knew you were the one who fixed it.
Sasuke was glad that he heard Satsuki's story and asked her if she wanted to continue her work as an Anbu. She said yes and asked where the Sandaime was and Sasuke closed his eyes. "He died, eight years ago." Satsuki was shocked to hear the news of the Sandaime's passing and asked Sasuke what happened. "He died in battle against one called Orochimaru. Orochimaru was a Legendary Sannin, a student of the Sandaime years ago and he was the one who killed the Sandaime." "Where is this Orochimaru now? Huh?" "He's also dead; the Godaime and another Legendary Sannin took care of him and killed him." "Godaime? Who is he?" "She, first of all and her name is Tsunade." "Tsunade-sama? Tsunade-sama is the new Hokage?" "Yeah, you should really report that you're back even if your missions started eight years ago." "I guess…I'll report it to my old Anbu leader and he can tell Koharu-sama that I'm back." Sasuke then asked her some questions about herself. "By the way, how old are you now?" "Twenty-one. I know I look a little older, but that's because in Anbu you don't get to rest much." Satsuki smiled while telling Sasuke. She then asked Sasuke about his life and after hearing it, she slapped him for turning against his friends in order to obtain power to kill Itachi. Sasuke told her that he used Orochimaru to gain that power and never sold his soul to him. She slapped him again and told him never to betray his friends or Konoha again, or else she'll kill him. He told her that he knows that now and he and his friends are back to normal with each other, forgiving him for his stupidity was the hardest part. Sasuke then asked her if she wanted to meet his friends and maybe she would like them too. Satsuki asked who his friends were and Sasuke told her that his best friends Naruto and Sakura were going to be the Rokudaime Hokage and that Sakura was already a great medical ninja. "Rokudaime Hokage? Is he that good?" Sasuke told her about Naruto. "He's strong, he never gives up, he protects his friends no matter what but he is also quite the idiot sometimes." Satsuki laughed and together they went to find them.
Naruto had come home and washed up. He realized that when he went to look for Sakura, he hadn't eaten anything since the night before at Sasame's house. His stomach began to growl and decided to look for some food. He looked into his cupboards to find nothing, no ramen anywhere! He looked in his fridge for the cold ramen he could heat up and eat; they were gone and replaced by fruits and vegetables. He didn't buy any of this. Naruto looked at his fridge door and there was a note. "Naruto, you should eat healthier. I replaced your ramen and bought healthy fruits and vegetables for you. Love you!" Sakura" "Sakura got me fruit and vegetables, hmm…I guess I'll eat those instead…she is a great medical ninja after all and is just looking out for my health." Naruto smiled and brought out a bowl and kunai and made a morning fruit salad out of the fruit Sakura got him. Around half an hour later, there was a knock at Naruto's door. Naruto was eating and reading the newspaper. He got up and opened the door with his bowl in hand. He opened the door to find Sakura there. Sakura looked at his bowl and hugged him. Naruto dropped his breakfast and embraced Sakura. "You ate the fruit I got you! Thank you!" as she gave him a kiss. "Yeah…well…I'm too lazy to go out for breakfast figuring I just came home after a week. I might as well eat what I got instead of wasting my money on food." Sakura hugged him again. "Hey, you want to go out today? I'm taking the day off so we can go have some fun. Ok?" "Sure, what did you have in mind?" "Hmm…the Chuunin exam is taking place right now, want to go watch them fight? I heard Konohamaru's team was in the main matches." "Really? Konohamaru learned that much from Ebisu? Ok let's go." "Do you think Sasuke would like to come too?" "Probably not…but since he has nothing better to do now, I guess he might as well come have some fun." Sakura and Naruto read in the paper that the main matches start at ten and it was already quarter to ten.
They were about to leave just as there was another knock at the door. They wondered who it could be. Naruto opened the door to find Sasuke. "Yo, morning, I want you two to meet someone." Sasuke then brought out Satsuki. "This is Satsuki, I found her in the Uchiha grounds this morning. Satsuki, these are my friends, Naruto and Sakura." "Nice to me you Satsuki." They both said. "Satsuki, show your ability to them. It's ok. They can be trusted." Satsuki looked at Sasuke and revealed her Sharingan. Naruto and Sakura stared in amazement. "This is amazing! How is it possible?" They wondered. "She was no where near Itachi when the Uchiha clan disappeared. She was on a tough mission and has seen many things in her life." "How old is she? She looks quite old Sasuke." Naruto got smacked by Satsuki for insulting her. "I'm only Twenty-one; I'm the same age as you guys!" "Twenty-one? Were you in our academy graduating class?" "No, I was in the graduating class four years earlier, I'm a super genius. Since then I've been in Anbu finishing missions for the late Sandaime." "Anbu? Wow! You must be a great ninja then!" Naruto exclaimed. "See, I told you he's kind of an idiot sometimes but he's also kind." Sakura Smiled as she asked them if they wanted to come to the Chuunin Exam with them. "The Chuunin Exam? I can go? I've always wanted to watch one but because I was in anbu, I wasn't allowed to." Naruto invited her to sit in his box as he had his own box built in the day he was named Hokage. Satsuki said she'd be glad to.
They arrived at the stadium a little late but all they missed were the announcements of the fights and the order they would be taking place according to a guard who was posted at Naruto's Box. Naruto looked up to find Tsunade and Gaara at the top of the stadium in the Hokage's box. Naruto told Sakura, Sasuke and Satsuki that he was going to go up there for a while. Satsuki told Naruto not to mention her to the Hokage. He agreed to keep his mouth shut and left. Meanwhile, Kakashi appeared behind them and ask how they were. He looked over at Satsuki and stared at her for a bit. Suddenly, "Satsuki! You're back, how have you been?" Kakashi grabbed her and hugged her. Sakura and Sasuke were staring at their former teacher in confusion. "Kakashi-sempai, I'm fine, you're so much older than I remember you." "It's good to see you again." "Wait a minute, you two know each other? Sasuke wondered. "Kakashi was one of the Anbu assigned to the team that I was temporarily on. He was my superior in the Anbu, but he was so laid back that he acted like a kid sometimes." Satsuki smiled as she told Sasuke. "Kakashi, you told me that you didn't know anyone else from the Uchiha clan that survived. You lied!" "I didn't lie, we were in Anbu, I only knew her first name and that was when we would talk together alone. Otherwise I was to call her by the number given to her; by at that time, our leader. To me, when we were all together, she was S1354; but because we had late night talks together, we told each other our real first name. After I was released from Anbu to become a Jounin teacher of a group of Genin, I found out that she was also an Uchiha. The late Sandaime told me to keep my mouth shut otherwise he'd strip me of my title. So I did." "So, until just now, you totally forgot about her." "Well…you know that I go to the KIA rock everyday to visit my old friend Uchiha Obito, I thought she was also KIA because I haven't seen her for so long." Kakashi smiled. Just then Kakashi got hit in the head and was pounded into the ground. "You forgot about me! You thought I was dead! How could you?" Satsuki screamed. Sakura and Sasuke signed as they were happy that they were in a private box away from everyone else. "Ow, that hurts you know, I'm not as young as I use to be." Satsuki calmed down and apologized for her actions. Kakashi said there was no need and that it was natural for her. "Satsuki, you do know what happened to the Sandaime, right?" "Uh…Yeah, Sasuke told me." "Well then everything's good. Report to Yamato as soon as you can. Sakura turned around. "Yamato? Yamato was your leader?" Kakashi replied telling Sakura, "It's not what you think. The Yamato who was our leader years ago is now a senile old man who is strict with the new Anbu personnel. The Yamato that you know Sakura; is an Anbu but isn't actually named Yamato. That was a code name given to him by Tsunade-sama. "I see, oh well." "Kakashi-sempai, do you think you can tell Yamato for me? I've been gone for eight years on four Anbu missions, ten times the usual amount for an Anbu to take care of things alone. I don't know what he'll say to me now that I'm back." "Well…eventually, you'll get discovered, but if you wish, I can keep it a secret until he finds out on his own." "Will you? Thank you, Kakashi-sempai" Kakashi took his leave to attend the exam with his students.
Satsuki asked Sasuke how they knew Kakashi besides knowing that he was one of the Jounin teachers. Sakura told Satsuki that Kakashi was their team leader eight years ago when the three of them became team seven. In the mean time, Naruto jumped up to the Hokage box and slapped Gaara in the back. The guards stabbed Naruto in reaction. A puff of smoke appeared and a big frog with his tongue sticking out appeared. Naruto then changed back. "What are you guys doing? I'm here to see Gaara, not kill him." "Naruto-sama, we didn't know that you were going to come. You should have informed us." "Eh, I just got back from a mission, I was too tried to call you guys." "Naruto, where is your report anyways?" "Uh…I'll give it to Shizune later. I came today to enjoy the festival and matches since my old buddy Konohamaru is in them." "Hmm ok." "Naruto, you still haven't officially become Hokage yet? What's with the wait hmm?" "Hey, it's not my fault, until she steps down, I can't take the seat and I know her, she's going to be in that chair forever." Tsunade laughed as did Gaara. "You haven't changed much, have you?" "I changed quite a bit over the years, you changed a bit too; like, you don't have dark rings around your eyes anymore." "Well, without the Shukaku inhabiting my body, I've been able to sleep; getting rid of them." "I see, anyways, I'm going back down to my box. I'll see you later Gaara, we can go out and have a drink before you leave tomorrow, ok?" "Sure." "Oh, Tsunade-sama, I 'm guessing you heard about Ero-Sennin's big day, whatever that is. Congratulations to him right?" Tsunade nodded her head. "Naruto, be sure to hand in your report and watch the matches carefully, you're a judge on who gets to become Chuunin, remember; and give logical reason for your pick or picks." "Ok, I'll tell you later, I'll right it in something and give it to you later." Tsunade once again nodded her head.
The Chuunin exam finals saw Konohamaru fight a young Genin from the sand. He was the direct subordinate of Gaara and he beat Konohamaru. Konohamaru didn't give up though and before you knew it, Konohamaru had used Naruto's move, the one he used against Gaara, The thousand years of pain combo with the 2000 kage bushin strike and the 4000 shuriken kage bushin attack. Even though Konohamaru landed those attacks, he ran out of chakra and fell unconscious during the match after getting a retaliation hit from the sand Genin. The judge called that Konohamaru could no longer fight and that the sand Genin won. After the main matches, Tsunade had an announcement to tell all of Konoha. She gathered them all in front of the Hokage's office. Naruto thought that she was finally going to stop being Hokage and let him take the seat. Instead, "Everyone…there are a few things I want to talk about. First of all, congratulations to the young sand Genin for winning the Chuunin exam tournament. The judges and I will examine your performances and give word to all the Kages about our decision. Secondly, would the following three people please come forward, Uzumaki Naruto, Haruno Sakura and Shizune." Naruto really had no idea what was going on now. He and Sakura along with Shizune who joined them afterward went up to the top of the building. The advisors of Konoha then took the stage. "Uzumaki Naruto, you have been chosen to be the next Hokage of this village. That is already predetermined. Jiraiya here, also has chosen you to be his best man at his up coming big day." Best man? What's that? Naruto thought. Sakura turned to Tsunade and she smiled. "Haruno Sakura, Shizune, you have been chosen by Tsunade to accompany her on the same Big day." Sakura got all excited. "Villagers of Konoha, we as the advisors to the Hokage are pleased to announce that the Legendary Sannin, Jiraiya; and Tsunade the Godaime Hokage will be getting MARRIED!" Naruto's eyes opened wide as well as all the Villagers. Soon after, Cheers could be heard from all across the crowd. Naruto had a warm feeling in his heart and began to cry a bit. Jiraiya then wrapped his arm around him and told him that's what his big day was. Naruto fully understood and was happy for them both.
