(Konohagakure No Sato
27th October
With The Hokage)
So the last few weeks happened. With Naruto making new...well first freinds if we are looking at the context, it was expected that he will have a hard time leaving them and it was. The kid just had a depression streak. He ignored to prank the people when they hurled insults at him as revenge but instead he just walked with his head bent down. Hiruzen knew he had to do something as Naruto even ignored ramen, I mean he ignored his ramen treat which, truthfully was not good.
They have been back for a day and he actually regretted coming back I mean why the heck does he want to come back to the cursed paperwork. He curses these papers to hell. I mean he wished to to stay there permanently but alas he has responsibility here. So here he was now waiting for another horrible council meeting with nothing but dread. And he is here thinking his thoughts.
And thought his life was a sucky fanfic.
With few people who had nothing to do read him think his problems.
In a dark room on a dimly lit screen.
Or in a park or in a library or a restaurant or when they are on a date
it's there choice but don't read it on a date or at family gatherings/function sometimes people get wrong ideas and not in that context.
And think what he should do next.
Hiruzen then wildly shook his head with too much vigor. 'What am I thinking?!fanfic!' He thought 'Calm yourself Hiruzen, it's just your nerves about today's meeting' but he knew it wasn't about that. He knew that it was about the changes in the Suna-Konoha treaty and also about Naruto and sudden rumors about him that have been spread, something like hell/demon spawn who could eat fire and could burn you to ashes in an instant, well he wouldn't be wrong about those facts but except for the demon spawn bit.
So here he was now waiting for the news about council gathering here and Naruto getting here, all the while trying to make a plan to keep Danzo off of Naruto's back which was currently giving him a lot of headache then he ready had.
He was quiet deep in his musings when a knock on his door brought him out.
"Lord Hokage" one of the ANBU he sent came followed with Naruto with a frown which basically made him a blonde Uchiha again that personality on Naruto, not good "Hello Naruto" he spoke towards the little boy "How are you today?"
"I am good" Naruto spoke with a brief smile "How are you?" Okay there was still not a single comment about being Hokage which again was not good.
"I am good." He started "Now can you tell me why are you so sad."
Naruto looked at the Hokage and then turned his head at the ground "Why does no one like me Jiji?" The Hokage took a deep breath not expecting that question right now "I mean I don't have any freinds here, where as back in Suna I had Garaa, Temari, Kankuro, Maki and Matsuri. Here no one likes me except for you, few shinobi, and Ayame-chan and Teuchi-jii, even the kids my age doesn't like me." Hiruzen could tell him why the people in Konoha doesn't like him that much both of them knew it. But he knew that Naruto as he was right now was not ready give him a few more years and let him become genin with few freinds that he would become Genin he would tell him himself but right now, now was not the time he decided.
"I know why Naruto." He started and decided that it was not how he should start with the hopeful look that was sent to him by the little guy and knew that his next sentence will tear him apart. "But not right Now."
"But why?!" He shouted "I want to know why the village that I was born in hate me so much. Why am I trying to prove myself to people who wish for me to be dead and why they attack me. Why do kids don't wa t to ay with me, why?!" with tears leaking out of his eyes. As he was crying Hiruzen got close to him and held him with Naruto flinching at start but soon melted in the hug of his grandfather figure.
"Tell me Naruto" Hiruzen started "Do you trust your Jiji" Naruto in the hug nodded his head. "Then trust in me that I will tell you when you are ready. And you won't have to worry about people harming you okay. After today you will won't have to worry about anything okay." Naruto again nodded as the Hokage released. Now he had another reason to try hard in the council meeting today if he want to improve Naruto life and with that in mind Hiruzen headed towards the council chamber with a steeled resolve and firm mind.
(Council Chamber)
The council chamber were eerily quiet this time, there was too much silence and the tension in the room was enough that it could be cut down by a blunt strikes of knife. Most of the members of the council knew that if right now any of the members that are not elder or the Hokage open there mouth the whole room will go down in chaos with shouting and what not. So they were all calm waiting for someone to break the silence.
Another reason for the silence is the presence of Naruto Uzumaki, the Jinchuriki of Kyuubi no Kitsune, also known as by the Konoha Civilians as the demon itself or demon spawn, not like how Suna called him for the pranks, they said with full of hate and loathing, who was sitting a few distance in the back under the protection of the shinobi council and ANBU commander with a straight face or trying to make one, which resulted his innocent face looking as if he was trying to control the piss and waiting for the bell to ring so that he could run out and piss. If it wasn't for the reason that he was at a council meeting that they knew something happened which included him which could either come in their favour or into a total catastrophe. The previous week was for them was godsend, even if they miss the regular pranks which made their regular boring lives a bit entertaining they still miss the days when he was not here. And now he was here, here in the council chamber. Even if many of them don't want him to be here for way to many diffrent reason but still they can argue against the Hokage but they still can't go against what he is going to do. They hold some of the sway the final desicions still rests in the hands of the Kage.
They could still do things behind his back and in the shadows, but nobody should actually know what are they doing, if they did then its game over. But all of these things are for later time. Let's hold it up for another time.
So in short the didn't know what why the Uzumaki was here also, they don't want Naruto Uzumaki here.
"Greetings" The Hokage started "Honorable council members, it is with great pleasure that I tell you that the meeting in the Village Hidden in the Sands has been quite fruitful in several ways" the council members actually noticed emphasis on some of the and subtle glances made towards the Uzumaki and on some of them the feeling of dread settled with great pressure. They were actually hoping for something peaceful and normal but the action of Hokage actually made some of them internally groan.
Before a question could be asked Hiruzen started again "So these are some of the terms that has been laid out by the Kage of both the Villages and the first term was the rerouting of missions that has been coming from the Daimyo of the Land of Wind for which we will receive 10 percent of the total job cost." seeing no objection actually coming from the civilian side the kage tried to move further before he was interrupted by a sudden clap and voice from the sides of the elder, and Danzo Shimura stood up. Hiruzen sighed at Danzo's requirements for dramatic effects but no that old hawk has to show some flair even when he is retired he could have done it normally when he stopped for a moment, no it would have been better if didn't stood up at all, that old hawk can make any situation at least 20 times more troublesome than Naruto, no actually both of them are equally troublesome, if he got his claws on Naruto then Kami may have mercy on there souls, because handling both of them will be downright troublesome. Wait did he just regarded things, situation and person as troublesome. 'Kami I am turning into a Nara' he thought on second thought why did he still has him on the council. Oh yeah the old hawk is good at tactics and under-handed works also that guy is also a very powerful albeit former and injured shinobi and his most of work is done for the betterment of Konoha no matter how disturbing his methods are and that he doesn't have any evidence against him. Also he is rich. Being a shinobi pays you well.
"Yes Danzo." Hiruzen gritted out
"May I know why have decided to without further counseling to reroute the mission that has been given to Konoha towards one of the major village. The mission has been given to us not them and if the Daimyo of the Wind Nation is sending us missions that it actually shows there inadequacy that even the leader of there nation refuses to help them and how highly he thinks of us" Danzo stated his words and even he had to tell that it actually hold some merits.
"Yes that is quite true but we can't say that they are weak for we know that the Sand village does have some strong shinobi." Hiruzen started "but even then The Village Hidden in the Sand is our ally and to actually settle some of the growing resentment that they might start to harbor for us in the future, and no we are not going to crush them Danzo they are our allies understood attacking them shows to the world that we are actually not worth trusting which is one of the reason we get the mission because our shinobi's our reliable. And with these mission that will lead towards their growth which in turn means the growth of Konoha. And regarding the missions that are receiving and the how highly the house of Wind daimyo think of us" he stated and picked upon one of the paper from the stack that was in front of him on the right side. "This is one of the mission, mind you not every mission is like this but it is one of the example and this is the mission 'Requirement of Shinobi's for the cleaning of bathrooms of Daimyo Palace in the Wind Country' so this mission is clearly asking for a privileged plumbing and house cleaning that the Wind Daimyo has sent for us from wind country for cleaning their bathrooms which is in wind country. I say that they think very highly of us. Right?" The final words made the rest of growing argument shut.
"Now unto the next part." The Hokage picked another sheet from the stack in the center. "The Kage of both the villages have thought of the idea of thought of the idea of student exchange programmes and/or educational trips between the two shinobi villages." He paused and the arguments and shootings started, he actually waited for some arguments and it was here but not from the one he was expecting. He turned to look and saw that Danzo was in deep thought so were few from the shinobi council consisting of clan heads like Shikaku, Fugaku, Hisashi and Shibi were the only one that stayed calm.
"Quiet" he ordered and immediately the hall went quiet on the side Naruto was a bit excited when he stated about this program but went quiet again when the shoutings began.
"Please state your arguments properly so that I could hear them, do not shout." He commanded and slowly one by one they all started stating the arguments "how are you so sure that they won't try something, they can send a spy admist the children"
"I don't think they have a Danzo there" Hiruzen murmured to himself.
"They could be trying to take our secrets." And such that several other comments.
He then turned to look at the members that were staying quiet during this. "What are your thoughts regarding this?" He asked them.
"I think this whole thing is troublesome." The Nara stated "But I could see the benefit from this."
"And do tell what will be the benefits and advantages." One of the civilians council member stated.
Instead of the Nara, Danzo spoke up "One of the advantage will be the fact that for one we will actually have someone that could teach our shinobi who had wind affinity more techniques than what we could actually teach them, and from the amount of wind techniques we have which is actually quiet petty as we gave wind bullet and gale palm technique." The council waited for a bit more to actually hear the amount of techniques they have for wind affinity. "No that's just it. We don't have any more wind affiliated techniques."
"That's just painfull" one of the other member states.
"What about the sharingan?" another member called out "Can't it copy any more wind techniques."
"It could copy more wind techniques" Fugaku Uchiha spoke up "But for that we have to see the jutsu in action and for that we need the people who are knowledgeable of these techniques and right now there are only two villages that have more wind jutsu than us, one of them is Kumo" there were more grumblings from the people of the council " And the other is Suna which means that we will actually benefit from this proposition."
"Another thing" Danzo spoke up again "I would prefer the trips not the exchange programme as that could actually be more harmful than good. And as the Hokage previously stated The Village of Suna actually has some strong shinobi and having them on our side could actually be more beneficial."
With this the Hokage spoke up again "Allright we will discuss more on this topic at a later time with all of us need to think more on this."
"Now onto the next part we need to discuss about the new trade routes between the village."
"Before we do that there is something that I have to ask Lord Hokage" Danzo interrupted.
"Recently the council have received a contract of sorts from the Daimyo of the country which has actually been sent to him by the Daimyo of Wind who in turn received this offer/contract from the council of Suna." At hearing this Hiruzen cursed under his breath as Danzo brought out the Kami damned contract from the sleeve of his robes "And I also heard about an interesting things regarding our resident trouble maker." Hiruzen took in a deep breath he knew that this will have to be eventually be talked about in this council meeting but not this soon and certainly not from Danzo but what actually surprised him more was the voice in which he stated because he was certain there was some emotion behind his words not know what it was but it was there. He then turned his attention to the rest of the presence that were in the meeting which now consisted of a civilian side who was now glaring at the mentioned blonde child and the shinobi council who gazed at him in curiosity.
"Now I would really love to know about it Lord Hokage" he spoke in a dramatic hushed voice and then immediately raised his voice again with background music playing in the background conveniently "I would really love to know about the bloodline of the dragon"
"Tell us about the bloodline of the dragon." As Danzo said this Hiruzen had half a mind to actually leave his place and strangle him. He actually spoke it loudly and with dramatic effects he could have spoken normally but no that guy is an asshole of an unprecedented level. Hiruzen hoped to talk about it with the Shinobi council only but now he has to talk in front of the civilians too, last time they spoke up in Shinobi business they tried to remove even the three basic jutsus from the academy curriculum.
Meanwhile the rest of the council was totally shocked. A new bloodline, it was new, not referring to the bloodline, and shocking for a bloodline to come out of nowhere but it still happens time to time. What shocked them more was that they thought he was going to talk about the resident trouble maker, not about some new bloodline. I mean why would Danzo talk about bloodline with the Demon Child in the context. Why would he even have a bloodline, he was just a demon.
The Shinobi council on the other hand was downright confused. They just like the civilian council thought it was just going to be a regular council meeting about the recent changes that are being made in the Suna-Konoha treaty. They did not expect a new bloodline to be discussed in the meeting. Now talking about bloodline was one thing but talking about bloodline and including Naruto was another thing and if they are being discussed in the same question than that would mean 'This is too much troublesome for a regular council meeting.' Shikaku thought and laid his head on the ground with a huge headache that was now forming in his mind.
Naruto on the other hand perked up when they started talking about his bloodline. And then he began to hide in himself when the silence became too much for his little mind, he knew for the fact that the general populace of Konoha didn't like him and the shinobi population was somewhat ignorant of him and that is on the best of days. So he began squirming on his seat as Kakashi and Genma came close to him.
After a long silence Hiruzen coughed and brought out the original red scroll that they first found which had an ornate gold dragon circling around it.
"This scroll" He started "is for the sole bearers of the dragon bloodline, it cannot be open if you don't have the said bloodline, we know because we tried opening it, and is covered in a seal that makes it totally unable to be opened by anyone else and also has a defense mechanism drawn into it making the holder to whom the scroll doesn't belong to shock or burn or forced away, it depends on the power with which you tried to open it. And the seal is specifically drawn by the Fourth Hokage and his wife" "His Wife?!" "I have yet to complete my sentence, yes his wife, Me and Jiraya along with Kakashi and few other people are witness of the marriage, now I am not going to say her name but she was as much of a prodigy if not more when it came to the seals, do not interrupt. Yes, so they drew the seals on the scroll which are also invisible to us." He pause again and looked at the gathered council who were still looking at him in shock with only Danzo and Shikaku along with Hisashi and Figuaku narrowing there eyes at him, he can't blame them they were always too smart for their own good. "The seal also make it impossible to be read by anyone else other than the bloodline bearer and the people that he may trust the most." Danzo let out a quiet curse under his breath which was noticed by Hiruzen as he gave a crooked smile. "Yes nobody other than the two I mentioned above can read the scroll."
"Lord Hokage, if you don't mind I would like to test it myself." Danzo said tryning one last time to get a hold of something of value from the fourth Hokage. Hiruzen knowing what happens when you deal with this scroll and tries to force open it handed the scroll the ANBU that appeared to be taken bare him. Once recieving the scroll, Danzo tilted it t get a better look at the scroll and turned in any direction, finally after not finding any thing he decided to push chakra into the scroll. Nothing happened "I think you were pulling my le-" out of nowhere a giant shock generated from the scroll throwing both the scroll and Danzo in opposite direction. Hiruzen then directed the vary ANBU to get the scroll which was still emitting the sparks. Everybody was too shocked to actually understand what happened
"Wha-" Danzo coughed as he tried to stand back up and reach his seat "What was that Lord Hokage."
"That elder Danzo was the defense mechanism I told you about, now only if they would have left some scrolls regarding this seal I think our security could have been better than." Hiruzen stated with hidden glee behind his voice. "Now as we have seen that normal people can't open it and I have also stated that nobody else apart from the person that trusted the most by the bloodline user and the bearer himself can read it. Now onto the next part and I don't want any loud exclamations and shouting and this time if any of you spoke out of there turn the ANBU will be very kind to lead you out of here." He clicked his finger and Kakashi brought Naruto in the front and took the scroll from the Hokage and brought it towards Naruto, and the whole council held their breath in the hope that what they are thinking may not be right and the child will face the same consequence that happened with the council elder but all of it were dashed when just reaching the hand there was a clicking sound that came from the scroll. Naruto looked around to see that the Civilians had there jaw drops and the shinobi council eyes were wider than the ball he used to play with alone.
Naruto then handed the scroll back to Kakashi who opened it fully to show it to the rest of the council and to the civilians surprise it was blank except for the signature at the end of the fourth Hokage and somebody else preferably his wife. Before anybody could speak or yell something, Hiruzen interrupted again "Now as you can see the scroll is blank except for the signature of the previous leader, and if you would have paid attention to what I have been saying, than you might have learned that the words inside the scroll is limited to only that person and the person he trusts. So to many of you it might be possible that you may not know what is written in the scroll if you don't learn don't put in yourself."
"So all we need to know what is written the scroll is gain his trust?" One of the civilians council member stated it as if it was the most easiest thing and at hearing that Danzo picked himself up to reach Naruto and Hiruzen cursed himself but before he could actually reach there, Naruto was approached by none other than Tsume Inuzuka or as known to him "Dog Lady" there were several spit takes and some choked on air when they heard his exclamation of glee, because in his own words he practically called her a bitch, now that is his childhood innocence but to some of them it is nothing more than the certificate of death, they were more surprised when the Inuzuka clan head and matriarch instead of strangling him just sighed and smiled as he continued his sentence "What are you doing here, is Kuromaru with you?"
Now before he could sprout some more questions Tsume interrupted him "Well little pup, I am here because I am the Inuzuka clan head." For Naruto that was a news because she one of the few who actually treated him without any contempt or jealousy or hatred or neutrally, first being she didn't mind when he played with her dog which was quiet frankly big in size, second that she was the one who taught him how to hold the sticks that he used eat ramen he thinks they are called chopsticks, and lastly she didn't looked at him with the same eyes like the others look at him, her eyes looked like Jiji and Teuchi-jiji. When he was unable to see her again he thought that he did something wrong but turns out she is actually a cool ninja and one of the strongest one made him feel good that he actually didn't do anything wrong.
"And Kuromaru is currently outside as he doesn't like these sessions." Truthfully nobody likes these sessions but they are nesseccary for Konoha and it's people so there is another thing "So kiddo tell me how are you?"
"I am good." Naruto started "And I don't blame Kuromaru these are lot of boring, when I become Hokage I am gonna ban these meetings." Most of them even the civilians laughed at this notion, they would love it if they don't have to be here in these meeting but these meetings as much of a headache as they were, as much necessary they were.
"You are welcome to try kiddo." She paused "hey do you mind if looked at the scroll?" She asks while pointing at the scroll that was with Kakashi.
"Sure." Hiruzen really need to teach him not to trust people easily but he was happy that it was Tsume not Danzo, that guy is a lot more manipulative than he meets the eye.
Tsume gets the scroll and then looks at the two major clans that being Uchiha and Hyuuga. And turns to them "I know that you activated your bloodline." Everybody turns to look at them seeing a Mangekyo Sharingan and Byakugan in action as they both now glared at her "I don't mind it bit can you tell me if the signatures are legit or not." Slowly the glare recedes as Hyuuga head spoke from his side "The signature of both of them are original I do not see any sign of fakery in it." This made many of the arguments that were rising up in the council shut down.
"Ok then" She nodded at the two and looked at Naruto again "Do you mind if I read it?" She asks again "Huh no." He turned and replied to her with a grin "Wait you can read it?"
"What you don't trust me?" She made a hurt face and laughed at seeing his expression which then turned to a pout "let me just try okay, little pup." She said to Naruto with a kind smile who in turn gave her his own.
She turned to look back at the scroll and opened it completely and to her surprise words began to form on the scroll, in her surprise she nearly dropped it but got her composure back.
"Dear Reader" 'so she could actually read it.' Hiruzen thought as she stated the exact words that were in the beginning of the letter.
"If you are able to open this scroll then you have my abilities and bloodline, the bloodline of a Dragon Slayer." Well this proves it that he actually he had a bloodline but none of them ever heard of a dragon Slayer or anything of that sort. She then continued to to read the next line "And if you don't have this bloodline but could still read this then you are someone who is trusted most by the person with this bloodline." After this she became quiet and kept on reading the scroll with her eyes going through every words again and again. She read the letter for few more times and then looked at Naruto then at Hokage and then at the council and then went back to letter again. She repeated the process for a few more time and then closed it.
"Okay" Tsume took in a deep breath "That is one complex and terrifying bloodline, if what I read is true." Now none of civilians wanted call her a liar as for the rest of them the scroll was blank but none would challenge two clan heads for there bloodline and the abilities of their precious fourth Hokage and possibly his wife.
"Well then what have you learned, Lady Tsume, if I may ask?" Danzo asks the Inzuka matriarch.
Tsume turning to him decided to tell the council what she had actually learned from the letter.
"According to the letter, his bloodline is divided in two characteristics, one is the physical characteristics and other being elemental one with several other stages that includes a Doujutsu and chakra forms and few stages. Just like sharingan." She paused as she let the things sunk in. "The physical and elemental characteristics are unlocked at a certain time. The physical characteristics being heightened senses, just like the Inuzukas including night vision too, his body strength will increase too with stamina and endurance. Then comes the elemental characteristics." She paused as they let the words sunk in about the physical characteristics which basically made him a Inuzuka without a partner. "The elemental characteristics makes them breath their elements." Many eyebrow rose as in the ninja world it was an easy feat but before anybody could say something she continued on "And also they are totally resistant to their respective elements." Eyebrows rose again this time in bafflement, Uchiha being the first one come out of the shock asked the one question he needed to ask. "You mean that a person with fire affinity could not be-" he was interrupted by Tsume herself "harmed by the fire jutsu, yes and that is not the best part."
"What is the best part then Lady Tsume?" Shibi Aburame asks.
"The best part is that they could eat the elements to refill their chakra." She replied and the whole room was silent, it was totally quiet with the sounds of insect that maybe were coming from the Aburame. "Lady Tsume by eating the elements do you mean eating as in consuming chakra?" One of the civilians asked. "Well according to the letter they could do it."
Danzo having some doubts was the first to ask a question "Lord Hokage if you don't mind may I have the demonstration of this feat?" He directed the question towards the Hokage who nodded "May I know his element?"
"He has affinity for fire, water and wind." Hiruzen states looking at Danzo as the rest widen their eyes for a child having not one but three elements. Danzo nodded his head and within the blink of an eye went through the hand seals of a Katon Jutsu as the rest of the members widen there eyes, Tsume being too much in shock was unable to act quickly as the a great fireball made contact with Naruto. Hiruzen was quick on his feet, to stand up but stopped when he heard a sound coming from the fire.
Slurp
Slurp
Slurp
The council was shocked when one of the member used a jutsu but this frightened shocked turned to an amazed one as the sound of slurping coming from inside the flame, as the ball began to decrease in size with flames and the turning into a vortex while going inside the mouth of one grinning Naruto Uzumaki.
"So they could actually do it." Danzo spoke as he sat back down.
"What was that?!" Hiruzen asks.
"What? you said his elements were water, wind, and fire. You except me to give him a glass of water or see him breath air to actually see it. It was only fire that I could try." Danzo said and Hiruzen knew what he had told him was truth and looking at Naruto's grinning face he knew that he was not in any danger. Even if it was true doesn't mean that he liked it.
Before an argument could escalate Tsume interjected with another point that may very well make the foam at mouth "He could also eat other elements as long as it has chakra and could combine them to create sub-elements." She said and the rest actually stopped to look at her as she learned that she had said something unbelievable.
"I am sorry." Fugaku Uchiha started "did you just say that he could actually able to learn the sub-element type moves which are essentially another set of bloodline in itself." She nodded her head the rest of the members looked at the Hokage for clearance.
Hiruzen sighed he actually wanted to keep some of the parts a secret. "Yes." He spoke after a while "He learned how to use or activate scorched bloodline after he ate a scorched ball of Pakura of Shakuton." Now that is a news Danzo didn't expect he need to get his hands on the child.
"So in theory if he ate ice he might be able to use Hyoton." Another of the council member spoke.
"That is wrong" Hiruzen said "Forced feeding of another may not be good and could also land him in a week to year long coma also the elements must be infused with chakra." Tsume nodded to this having read this in the letter. Now before she could speak anything else Danzo made a sign to not say anything else which was noticed by the shinobi population of council which consisted clan heads, ANBU commander, the elders and the Hokage.
Hiruzen understanding the sign decided to step in "I think that's enough for today." And looked towards the shinobi council signaling for them to keep on sitting. "We will continue this on 3 days from now. Shinobi council may stay we have discuss about the upcoming Jounin tests." He was happy that the civilians would not be here to learn more about this whole affair, some of the civilian member looked ready to protest but looking at the faces of the elders they complied, they learned their lesson when one of the idiots thought he was invincible and asked for the removal of basic techniques from the Academy and tried to gain some control in the Clans of Konoha got thrown out faster than the Kawarimi jutsu considering the fact that not even Danzo backed him in his advent.
Slowly the civilians left the chambers leaving only the shinobi council with the Konoha elders that included Danzo, Koharu and Homura, and the Shinobi council.
"So what is it that you need Danzo?" Hiruzen asked when the last of the civilians were out of the hall.
"Oh sorry Lord Hokage?" Danzo spoke up "I just thought that maybe you didn't want the civilians to know everything that will be discussed here." 'They weren't the only ones' Hiruzen thought while looking at the Konoha elders, especially Danzo. Danzo having felt his stare looked back at him with a smirk "What did you really thought you could actually hid this information from me, especially after the little incident in Suna."
"That wasn't my fault that he ate a scorched ball of Pakura." "He did what?!" The rest of the council shouted except for Naruto & Tsume who were both rubbing there ears, Hiruzen, Kakashi and Genma and Danzo.
"And then let out a huge torrent of scorching flame afterwards." Danzo spoke for the Hokage.
"Wait?!" Inoichi stopped the conversation "He ate a sub element and then proceeded to let out a huge torrent of scorching flames just after eating the flame."
"Not directly afterwards." Hiruzen interrupted "the body needs time to adjust to the introduction of a new element and it may come in the form of regurgitation or a coma."
"Regurgitation" Chouza Akimichi asks "Like puking and vomiting."
"Both words mean the same thing" Danzo spoke out.
"Now we have discussed the lack of understanding of vocabulary of my freind." Shikaku spoke out "Can we get back on the track, what is in the bloodline that would need the sudden leaving" or throwing them out "of the civilian council."
"As you may know that there are chances that he may be the last of his clan, so even if you want to there are high chances that he will be put in the CRA doesn't matter if you want it or not Sarutobi, the civilians council has that much say in it especially when he is the only one of his clan and the bloodline here." Sarutobi knew Danzo was right there are high chances that few of the Clan Head may vote for the CRA as much as they don't want to, and the civilians would have the vote in this as well and that might make things more difficult with the civilian knocking down his door. Also the elders, Danzo and may be Homura will vote for it. All in all the CRA will take place if he does or doesn't matter. "The only thing you could do is put restrictions on it so that the civilians may not become a part of CRA." Danzo completed his point, he may vote for it but it doesn't mean that he will anyone to be a part of it, Konoha needs strong ninja, not some basic child that could only perform basic bushin technique. "Also if they become part of it." Koharu for the first time spoke "they might get there hands on the techniques that he may have in the future." At this Hiruzen let out a snort as the rest turned to look at him.
"What was that Lord Hokage?" Homura interjected "He does have a point, there are chances that they may get there hands on the techniques scroll or any techniques that he may have in future." Meanwhile Naruto a bit confused about what was being talked about decided to ask something "Excuse me." He asks as everyone turns to look at him "uh um what's a ah CRA?" The whole council was deathly quiet as none of them wanted to tell him what ot will entail and what will be expected of him.
"We will talk about this later on." Hiruzen spoke with authority "Now you may complete what you have read." He looked at Tsume for her to describe what she had read also to keep Naruto from asking any more of this question.
"The doujutsu, known as Dragon eye, will be activated in a life or death situation or when he is desperate." She the took in a breath to speak out the next words "And is basically a combination of a sharingan and bayakugan."
"I am sorry." Hyuuga Hisashi spoke out "what do you mean by combination of sharingan and bayakugan."
"Well the Dragon's eye will have the telescopic vision of bayakugan and tunnel vision of sharingan, it allows him to break the strongest genjutsu and look at a person tenketsu, chakra pathways and how a person mold chakra."
"So the only thing the eye doesn't have is" Fugaku after a moment of silence started "The 360° vision of bayakuga and ability to copy a technique of sharingan,but it may allow him to understand how a technique works." Tsume and Hiruzen nodded as Danzo tried thinking the possible uses of it. "May we know any other things the bloodline provided apart from the stages."
"He also have chakra wings that will come with the Doujutsu." "Wings as in-" Chouza asks but Tsume spoke for him"The appendages that birds uses to fly, yes." "Okay" Danzo's mind was in a overdrive.
"Now the stages of the bloodline." Tsume spoke out to get attention back of the council.
"The bloodline includes 3 stages." Tsume started "2nd Origin, third origin and Dragon force."
"2nd origin allows the user to use stronger techniques with less chakra cost and will allow him to combine any elements easily, in this stage one wouldn't have to worry about overuse of chakra." Now this was impressive as many of them have techniques that are very chakra taxing "It also allows them to turn themselves into the element they have the affinity for." The silence reigned again with the ANBU commander coming out of his stupor "So if one, we could say has the affinity for lightening, he could turn himself to that lightening." Most of their thoughts went back to the 3rd shinobi war where Minato Namikaze earned the title of Yellow Flash. "Yes, he could." Was the strong reply of the Kage.
"Interesting." Danzo spoke out "And how would one can activate this stage."
Tsume paused and looked at the Hokage who gave her a go ahead "By Power and Chakra Overload." The silence was prominent. "So he could." Homura was the one to speak "activate it right now of someone overload him with chakra." Most of their thoughts went to the Kyuubi pushing his chakra into his little body.
Hiruzen was quick to reply "No, as the overload could not only harm him and his chakra pathways but could also outright kill him." Danzo made a humming sound and sat back again.
"Third Origin, nothing is told about it except that this stage is extremely dangerous. And could kill a person or one may not be able to use chakra for a long time and even that is not specified " Tsume spoke out and everyone eyes rose again "Now the other stage which is completely diffrent stage Dragon Force." She took in a deep breath before continuing "Dragon force will increase his over all physical abilities, and will also provide a dragon slayer with draconic appearance that include scales making there skin hard to pierce or damage, drastic increase in power and less chakra cost."
"And how could one activate Dragon Force." Koharu asks.
"By eating a special substance that contains every single element in it." The brows rose again "consuming a special flame called heaven flame that could also heal any to every kind of injury" the brows were starting to disappear "Or by either defeating or slaying a dragon. Yes the last one is impossible even the one who wrote this letter mentioned it." The whole council was very silent
"Now that is one strong bloodline." Shikaku Nara broke the silence with his comment.
Hiruzen knowing that more is needed to be discussed about the bloodline, "That is not the only thing unique about the bloodline." He spoke as Tsume, Naruto and Kakashi went back to there respective seats.
"Now with Naruto's permission I've decided to discuss few other things about this bloodline." He brought out another scroll it was plain with no extra design "this scroll contains a brief introduction to the bloodline including the moves, I wrote it down after Naruto's permission to discuss some basics with the original scroll is safe somewhere else, now this elders will tell you why I laughed when you talked about the civilians stealing the moves. Inoichi will you do the honours." An ANBU passed the scroll towards the Yamanaka Clan head who got the scroll.
"The Dragon slayers are of various types." Inoichi started the scroll which was written by the Hokage to not discuss more important things like history of the bloodline. "There are basic dragon slayers with affinity for Fire, Water, Wind, Earth and Lightening." The next line nearly made him drop the scroll "And then there are these affinity: Poision, Metal/Iron, Crystal, Wood, Lava, Shadow, Light and Darkness."
"Lord Hokage."
"Yes Fugaku."
"When they are talking about types you meant that the slayers could belong to any main elemental and sub-elemental group, but what about shadow and light." Everyone intrest is peaked as with the possibilities that were laid down in front of them made the slayers a lot more dangerous than they previously were thought out to be.
"Yes." He turned to Inoichi "Can you read the rest of the scroll."
"Yes Lord Hokage" Inoichi went back to the scroll "The scroll also talks about the several abilities that is unique to the designated dragon Slayer." Nobody wanting to interrupt what will be introduced to them.
"Fire Dragon Slayer: They are resistant to flame and could it it. The Fire Dragon Slayer also possesses something called the Flames of Emotions. The stronger the emotions of this slayer is the stronger the power and techniques will be." He paused then read the other paragraph.
"Metal/Iron Dragon Slayer: Could eat Iron and metallic objects to restore chakra, also this slayer turn himself into living walking armour and turn his/her hand into weapons like sword and saw." This actually made them think it through as not only it makes him the most defensive person and the ability to turn his hands into make into weapon makes him the most dangerous person in close combat situation.
"Lightening Dragon Slayer: Just like the above mention the basic abilities is same, but in here one could became fast as lightening can cover large distance in short time use the lightening to bulk up and gaining more strength." This was again was surprising and yet impressive. It also seem similar to the technique of the Jonin of the Kumogakure, Ai or A don't know how they pronounce that name.
"Sky Dragon Slayer: Again they have common abilities regarding their elements but unlike them being a wind/sky dragon slayer has many advantages. First you could practically heal yourself of any sickness and injury also you could heal others too. But unlike others this element allow your body to be flexible and moving also you could also use the sky dragon abilities to torture by increasing the amount of pain and messing with the nervous system of a person. You could also use the element to fly and heal sickness of any kind. A sky dragon is also known for restoring chakra and being kind hearted. Also they don't seem to run out of chakra as long as they breath due to their elements allying themselves to the air." And this was more terrifying than before the sky dragon could not only never run out of chakra which is just as much dangerous and the ability to heal oneself was just as much dangerous and a good medic and the other part of them being being able to inflict more pain by messing with nervous system, many shuddered at the implication.
"Poison/Venom Dragon Slayer: Same with the abilities like the other dragon slayer. As these are not your day to day elemental dragon slayer, the first thing he gets was being resistant to any to every kind of poison known and unknown to mankind. These slayers could also create antidote to the poison on the spot if you give them the taste of the poison. More over these slaying provides with ability to hear things that normal slayer cannot. Being a Poison dragon slayer gives you the ability to read minds and thoughts." So a dragon Slayer with the ability to read mind and being resistant to every known or unknown poison.
"Light Dragon Slayer: Also Known as the Holy Dragon Slayer. The special ability of this dragon slayer travelling as fast as light but also the fact that this dragon slayer has the ability to destroy and harm everything evil." Being shocked was being old.
"Shadow Dragon Slayer: If you are somehow aligned to Shadows, the Shadow dragon ability gives you the ability to eat and move in between shadows. You could even jump into the shadows of the person and control them while being hidden in the shadow of the person. When you are in shade you could use your ability to power your shadow abilities."
Hiruzen remembered the silence that was there when he first read the same thing that Inoichi spoke and it still impresses him still.
Shikaku again was one of the first to come out of his shock " Lord Hokage" he said "You said that the slayers could consume any element as long as it is laced with chakra, right?" The Hokage nodded as Shikaku asks something which he thought was important "So for instance if he eats one of the shadow attacks that the Naras are known for there is a high chances that he would either land in a coma or if he is lucky he could gain shadow as a part of affinity." Hiruzen actually understood his worry, being a clan that is known for shadow attacks the prospect of someone being able to consume one of the attacks and after that being able to use their techniques is quiet terrifying.
"Don't worry he won't be eating your techniques." You know that after laying down many of the rule which included Uchiha not copying technique,Hyuuga not using there bloodline while near Hot Springs and many more this is the first time he has to give a brand new rule which is just as much wierd.
"The reason I am not as much worried as I should be is the reason because that the moves of dragon Slayer are exclusive only to them." Hiruzen stated once again dropping another bomb on them.
"You mean like Sub-element bloodline techniques." Tsume spoke from her side and looked at the Hokage, "well that to but more so for other reason." He then looked at Inoichi "You can read the techniques that I have written too." Inoichi looked at him and then at the scroll again, he looked at the scroll and tilted his head and then rubbed his eyes and blinked several time. "Uh Lord Hokage." Inoichi starts "There are no hand signs for the technique."
"You are right Inoichi." Hiruzen looked at the gathered members "he doesn't need the hand signs for these moves." They really have a seat which would be specifically for the silence.
"I've said it before but I am saying it again." Shikaku spoke again "that is one strong and freaky bloodline."
"Now onto the more major parts." Hiruzen started "because of the development of the bloodline and considering nobody is there to teach him more about the techniques or shinobi style in general. So he will need to be taught and keeping in mind his bloodline there three people who I know that could help in teaching him." Danzo who didn't want to miss out the opportunity was about to stand up. But was stopped. "I know what you are thinking Danzo and no you are not the one who will be teaching him."
"Don't be a fool Sarutobi." Danzo interrupted "I can him strong and make sure he remain loyal to Konoha."
"How many times we are going to play this game Danzo." Hiruzen started "I am not going to say it again you are not the one who will do it." He let it known by flaring his chakra.
"Lord Hokage." Homura interjected when the argument began to boil "May we know of the people who will be the one to teach young Naruto."
"Yes the teacher who will help Naruto will be." He looked towards Tsume "Raiga Inuzuka" then towards the Hyuuga "Hizashi Hyuuga." And then he turned towards the Uchiha "Shishui Uchiha." Silence became a permanent member of the Council chamber again.
