The Demon of Uzumaki

Chapter 4

Hiruzen, the moment the council was empty with only danzo in the room, looked at his old friend and sighed from the old age. "I know your root is still active even after I disbanded it. You didn't help with the kyuubi attack, you also personally held back the uchihas from interfering. Do not deny it, I know you better than you think, and despite doing your best to take this hat from me, I still consider you a friend, even if you consider me as nothing more than a thorn in your way."

Danzo looked away after listening to the old monkey. He sighed out and nods. "I do have my root. I wanted the village to hate the uchihas even more now that they know the uchihas didn't help. But I do not consider you as a thorn. I consider your naivity as a thorn in my eyes."

"eyes. So you did kill kagami for his eye.." hiruzen said, danzo quickly tensed. "calm down danzo, seriously you did much worse than killing a comrade in arms. You tried assassinate me after I announced minato as the 4th hokage." Danzo calmed down once again but was about to say something before hiruzen, once again, spoke. "don't deny it. You have to realize that even if you became hokage, the godaime or whatever, you are too old. Despite working with orochimaru, I Purposely let go, he cannot extend your life. You will be too weak to deal with the enemies because your reputation is in the shadows. Do not deny it. You know I am better and my good will always helps the folks see the good in me and follow me everywhere. You aren't liked, but I do my best to satisfy your role as the Shadow hokage without hurting the village more than we already did."

Danzo opened his hidden eye and calmly looked at the baby in hiruzen´s arms. He didn't deny it, he looked back at hiruzen showing a greyed out eye in his "crippled" eyesocket. "the eye is burned out, I have used it so much it no longer has any use other than sacrificing it for Izanagi. I plan to force the uchihas to the edge and make them become hostile to the point they plan a coup. I want to eliminate the ones who are rooted with hatred and malice while keeping the innocent alive for the sake of the village´s reputation."

Hiruzen looked into the grey blind eye of danzo, he felt his hands slightly tighten around the baby in his arms and let out a heavy sigh which reminds him of his age. He nodded while slowly closing his eyes before snapping them open and glared at danzo. "we have lots of work to do, Shimura-san. I will personally visit Naruto at the orphanage to check on her health and if she is fed properly for until she can walk and speak on her own. Your root is needed in the shadows, but I need every single file of every single member, secret or in missions or even about to die, so I can give you a few orders on where to assign them."

Danzo was about to retord but hiruzen cut him off immediately. "the civilians are too full of themselves. Koharu and homura have done some stupid shit, encouraging the civilian council to get as much power as the shinobi council. DANZO! This is a fkn MILITARY village created to be treated equally but still birth Shinobi for the betterment of our future. I will NOT ALLOW some council to overthrow our Shinobi that work their FKN asses of to have a roof above their heads, food to eat in peace, and have fun while our man, out there are dying just to return with the information they have gathered in order to give us Intel on our enemies. The kyuubi incident will spread like WILDFIRE through the world and iwa and Kumo will LOVE our weakened state! Your root is needed INSIDE the village to first fix the attitude of these civilians."

Danzo listened closely as he stared deep into the eyes of his friend, who, once again, began to act like the god of shinobi he once respected. He gave a small smirk while getting up. He made a secret hand movement and 2 root units appeared behind danzo. "bring every single document and file we own, hand it to hiruzen personally. Don't spy on Uzumaki naruto´s growth, but watch her when she leaves the orphanage and report of her behavior. Do not engage."

Hiruzen nodded and got up, he walked to the doors of the council room, and spoke a few last words. "its great to working as a team again.. I gotta babysit the demon."

Danzo liked the sound of it. He thinks to himself while looking at hiruzen´s back who leaves the council meeting room. ´the village always had heroes to protect it, red dead, ebony rose, minato, the sannin.. why don't we create a Demon so that the enemy Fear us..?´

He stood for a few more seconds before disappearing in a smoke poof.

A few hours later, after he prepared all the necessary documents for Naruto Uzumaki, he took the little baby girl to the orphanage. The orphanage matron, an elderly woman at around 60-70 age of years, was welcoming the hokage with open arms, actually giving him a gentle hug before looking at his old age. "my old friend, long has it been since you visited my home."

Hiruzen smiled softly and returned the hug with one arm before holding the baby with both arms again, he chuckled at her words. "it´s been a while, tsukimi. Seems like retiring as my jonin, as danzo´s root, now you are a wonderful granny for these kids."

Tsukimi, the matron, jabbed his left rib side for the Granny tease before she returned that lovely grandmother attitude. "my, hiruzen you are such a charmer. Now why don't you tell me about our little red-blond hair?"

"this is Naruto Uzumaki, just born today during the kyuubi attack. I want to want you. The kyuubi is "sealed" and this baby lost her parents. Treat her equally to others, I will give you a B-rank pay weekly. Each day, a shadow clone of mine will visit to check on her. She isn't quite.. normal."

As Tsukimi already knew about the sealing, she looked at the baby. She didn't lose anyone, in fact, the kyuubi attack made her orphanage bloom with kids and work, now getting paid a b-rank every week as well? She is rich. But looking at the beautiful, and cute, face of the little Naruto, she noticed the black skin markings. She carefully caressed the whispers, and the baby actually started to purr. She chuckled softly and took the baby out of hiruzen´s arms before cocking it in her arms like a grandmother to her grandchild. "oh my, you are such a cutie, I will spoil you and give you what you ask for!"

Hiruzen actually was shocked to hear the baby actually purr like a fox, he sweatdropped when he didn't know how tsukimi would react only to facepalm when the orphanage matron acted like that, he chuckled softly at the nice atmosphere. "I will leave her to your care then. I do not think you will need anything more than her name. but if you need, I will be here every day for 30 minutes until she can walk and speak for herself."

Hiruzen turned around and left the orphanage, heading home as it is late at night and needs the rest to recover from that fatigue.

Tsukimi carried the little Naruto to her new room which is filled with 6 other babies who are 3-11 days older. Tucking her in the bed, the matron hummed a peaceful melody while covering the child with a blanket before she left the room silently, closing the door behind her. As she returned to her room, tsukimi sighed out and looked at the full moon at the top of the sky, from outside her window, and said calmly to herself. "I am different because I know what loss and loneliness feels like from my childhood.. but the others don't.. you will be hated and abused.. and only think I can do is protect you in here.."

She went in bed and slept.

When everyone was asleep, little Naruto was opening her eyes slowly. Those bright blue eyes with black slitted pupils are glowing in the dark, it was as if a dark pretador was allowed to be in the same room as its prey. She slowly looked around the room with only her eyes moving, her vision is 9 times as good as a regular eye, yet it is immune to blinding effects due to an extra layer on her eyes, kind of like a barrier that blocks anything that intrudes her eyes. As she scanned the room, inch by inch, the knowledge of minato and kushina started to flow through her little brain which sucked every information like an infinite sponge. After several minutes of information sorting, which she had to do in order to not have a mess in her mind, she thinks of that masked man with 1 mangekyou sharingan fighting her father minato. She looked further back into the memories, not giving a single crap about the deads her parents experienced because its not het own loss, she fell into the memories of minato and kushina helping Kakashi and rin calm down from losing their friend obito. She uses the sensory ability of minato from the fight between the masked man and kakashi´s sharingan, only to simply count 1+1=2. She inwardly sighed, and called out in her mind, with a baby yipping voice that of an actual fox pup. "papa?"

"Naruto.." kurama responded in her mind, already awake and aware of everything, after all he also manipulated the matron´s emotions and suggestions. He smiled inwardly and pulls the little babygirl in the mindscape. It is Not a Sewer because she didn't feel any kind of loneliness yet like the og Naruto meeting kurama far too late. She was laying on a beautiful flower filled environment that has no end. There are no trees, just flowers of all sorts and a wonderful dark sky with polar lights which is kurama´s senjutsu chakra. She looked over at her father with a curious expression as she couldn't move yet, other than her legs and arms like a baby. She blinked a few times as she memorizes every single inch of his body she can see, and those 9 fluffy tails, before she asked. "will I be that big too, papa?"

Kurama was confused why she looked at him like that but bursted into a fill blown laughter as she asked that, he clutched his tummy after a few seconds and huffed out catching his composure. "no, my daughter. Not before you turn into a full fox. But you are a human kitsune hybrid."

"I know, mommy´s memories tell me.. you.. did something?"

Despite being barely a day old or even less, the memories and intellect boost the seals, along kurama´s interference, happened in her development, she is able to use her thoughts more mature. She doesn't speak with her mouth, its her thoughts. When the time passed and kurama actually curled around her with one of his tails as her bed, he looked at her face and her kitsune markings.

She has the teeth of a fox, the ears of a fox along his markings and whiskers, she also has claws instead of nails, her tailbone is growing 9 points which will become 9 tails in the future, one after one. He nuzzled her playfully as he shrinks down to about 3 times the size an average adult human, and showers her with parental love, as her real body was simply sleeping peacefully, no care in the world.

The kyuubi´s influence, combined with what he did to her blood and dna, the next morning, when Naruto woke up, she was already able to sit up, look around and found herself about to get up when the head matron came into the room to see the kids, and Naruto immediately stopped herself from getting up. Tsukimi looked at Naruto, who seemed wide awake, with a soft smile and walked over to her in a slow and calm pace due to her age. She stopped by the bed, sat next to Naruto and asked warmly. "did you have a good sleep, naru-chan?"

Naruto knew when to show what she can and cant do, the memories of kushina´s and minato´s early age made it clear, you shouldn't show off or you get thrown in the war. She just nodded slowly, looking at tsukimi´s eyes with a soft gaze and surprised the head matron. The elderly woman was amazed a baby of just 1 night old can actually understand her, thinking it's just a coincidence so she tried it again. "say, Naruto. Are you hungry?"

Naruto, once again, nodded calmly at the matron, knowing her plans already and just satisfies those curious thoughts of tsukimi. "my, you are sure a smart baby! Will you be a genius like your parents?"

Naruto, once again, nodded while showing a thumbs up at the matron, smiling brightly like the morning sun, and shows mini teeth already.

The orphanage matron was shocked to see that kind of maturity, only to get up, pick up Naruto in her arms, and carries her to the dining hall where the rest of the kids are already taken. As she settled Naruto down on the far last seat, because she was the last kid, the matron went to her own seat, and called out. "today, I am celebrating with you, my lovely children. You have survived yesterday´s event like true heroes, and I want you to grow strong, healthy, smart, and beautiful."

The elder kids of age 2-5 were super happy to know they are heroes, the kids from 2 and below are just enjoying the happy atmosphere like babies, but Naruto, she calmly looked at every single kid from age 0 to 5, memorizing their physical features along their behavior, their personalities, and they expressions. Lastly, her eyes fell on the adults around that are serving the food to the kids as if they were special guests. She noticed their malice and hatred towards her along the happiness and concern for the other kids. The only one who was equal/neutral, was tsukimi. She noticed the head matron leaving the room, which resulted in her getting a bowl of actual Dog food. She looked at the bowl, then looked up at the person who gave her animal food. She memorized his entire being from chakra, to life energy, to body structure, to personality. She felt extra much hatred from this one, and the kyuubi maximized his hatred just for the fun of it.

The man looked at Naruto with so much killing intent the room became alittle colder and placed a spoon next to naruto´s bowl. He spoke with an anger filled, yet calm voice. "eat it all up. If you don't, you don't get lunch nor dinner."

Naruto calmly stared at his eyes deeply, her black slitted pupils invaded his soul. The killing intent affected the rest of the kids, but not her. She simply stared at him blankly before she closed her eyes with a soft sigh. She turned to her bowl, not knowing what human food is anyways, despite the memories telling her otherwise, she grabbed the spoon without much effort, and shove in into her food. She takes a spoonful of dog food, which is mainly wet kibbles, and chews calmly. Her human side has no knowledge of how animal food tastes like, but her kitsune side doesn't mind it. She calmly ate the whole bowl of wet kibble and the man beside her, that was watching to make sure the baby isn't cheating, was fuming when the kid actually ate dog food. The matron noted every single thing, she was told to not interfere directly, but she still can write down everything Naruto has to go through Daily.

After breakfast was over, naruto´s bowl was clean and the man took it, noticed it was actually clean, and simply walked off.

The day went on from morning to noon real quick, and as the sun of the high noon shined on the village, the head matron allowed the kids, of 2-5 age, to read some books from the library. While Naruto was not of age yet, she already pulled on the matron´s leg to get her attention. As Tsukimi stared down at Naruto warmly, she asked. "don't tell me.. you want to read too?"

Naruto nodded. The matron chuckled softly while taking out 2 books, one for meditation, one for chakra control. Looking at naruto´s expression of joy, tsukimi couldn't resist but to hand the little baby the books. "they are heavy…" Naruto didn't mind, she held the books with both her tiny hands with a lot of vigor, and took them to her room. Tsukimi smiled softly at the back of Naruto until the baby was gone to her room. That's when tsukimi´s smile falted and a sigh left her lips. "she is too mature.. what kind of monster did minato and kushina bred?"

Little did she know, they bred an actual monster.

During the whole afternoon until lunch time, Naruto has been reading. Her eyes, at first, was analysing the construction of the books and the pages, made of wood turned into paper, she narrowed her eyes thinly before shaking that thought for another time. She opened the book for meditation and read through every single sentence Twice to memorize it and train her vocabulary. Despite having the memories and experience of 2 kage level ninja, she wants her own experience and growth.

At dinner, back to the dining table, she was served Cat food. She once again looked at the same man, only to raise her left eyebrow like "you sure you wanna do this?" only for the man to huff out looking away as if he didn't know what she meant. She ate her food calmly, and noticed the cat food has an extreme amount of Meat and protein compared to the wet kibble of dogfood. She ate it even more hungrily as if it was delicious, and it was for her Fox side. After dinner, she got her mouth cleaned with boiling HOT water, as the another, female, orphanage worker was responsible to clean and wash the baby. They all are already filled with maximized hatred but minimized murderous minds. Thus, they did their very best to hurt and abuse the little baby without fataly injuring it. What they didn't know, the resistance of naruto´s body for cold and heat are extraordinary, the moment the boiling hot water hit her lips and the inside of her mouth, not only was the burnt skin healed, the 90-100°C hot water was no longer affecting her. But to please the malice of the people, Naruto faked her pain in order to appear weak.

The time she went to bed, hiruzen finally came to the orphanage, meeting with the matron at the same time as yesterday. They exchanged some words until the head matron grew a serious expression and handed hiruzen the daily report of Naruto. Hiruzen read it all and said calmly. "its alright, they still feed her and keep her hygienic. Don't worry, this baby already knows how the people feel about her."

Tsukimi also took into account that was the case. The 2 separated ways when hiruzen´s clone poofed and the matron went to bed, and Naruto was enjoying her sleep with kurama in the mindscape.

The same process went for exact 3 months.

At the start of the 4th month, when Naruto woke up, she felt something fluffy touching her left leg. She slowly sat up, feeling twice as tall as a regular baby of 4 months old, and looked down at between her legs after lifting the blanket. She grew a fox tail. She moved it left and right, played with the tip a little, before smiling at her small figure excitedly, and hugged her own tail lovingly. She looked around to see the babies still unable to grasp the reality around them, and she, as the only 4 months old, with the maturity of an adult, was sighing at their boring presence. She knew kurama was sleeping, mentally, so she didn't wake him up for the tail growth and simply got off the bed, right to the bathroom with the speed of a flying arrow, and stared at the mirror intently, noting her features entirely. Before we go to her current state, we go back to when she just reached the age of 1 month.

Flashback.

"Naruto. Now that you can move your body without trouble, I want you to train your body to handle your growth. The thing is, your body already is producing a Heavy load of chakra capacity even for Uzumaki standards, and I want your body to be able to endure the amount without problems. While you have absolutely control the moment you unlock your chakra, you body is still too weak." Kurama explained the situation to Naruto who was in the mindscape. After she already has read through all the books in the orphanage, she knew a lot about the body from her parents experience and what she read in the medical books. "alright papa, but how will I train and what do I focus on?"

Kurama looked at her room throught her own eyes and nodded to himself before answering her.

"do this training regime until I increase the difficulty. 350 sit ups, 350 pull ups, 350 push ups, 350 squats. Run around the open space in your room at full speed until you no longer can move your legs. I know this sounds difficult for the few first days, but once your body get used to the struggle and hardship, you will like it."

Naruto already knew the training regime of maito guy from minato´s experience and memories. Kurama just gave Naruto the training regime of Maito guy when he was at his 4th year of academy about to become genin. She had quite the hesitation of doing that suicidal training at the age of 1 month, but kurama looked at her eyes and maximized her confidence and determination. "if you do that for until you become half a year old, I will give you something special. By the way, you cant die with me here. Now get moving! I want to see my beautiful daughter turn into a wonderful Pretador!"

Flashback ends.

Naruto Uzumaki is 4 months old, is 50cm tall, 8kg heavy, has a slim figure with a few abs to her little tummy, her skin was smooth and almost silk soft while her muscles, inside her skin, were tough. She has bright blue eyes with black slitted pupils, her spiky strong hair of Crimson Red with blond strings was reaching down to her shoulders already and her ears were pointy with a little fox fur on the ends, the whiskers and markings never changed, they adapted to her growth, her claws were silver coloured, sharp enough to dig into hard wood effortlessly, and indestructible due to something kurama did back then. Her tail was damn fluffy, large to reach her ankles and had crimson red colour with blond lines down the centre of the tail from the top to the base, indicating that her kitsune features will be 75% red 25% blond. She didn't mind, she was a beautiful young baby girl and the only thing that really stood out other than her already outstanding tail, was her black lips which she got from kurama.

She washed her face and also hands before going out of the bathroom only to see Tsukimi about to walk to her room. She followed right behind tsukimi in stealth mode, she had no chakra yet, she was already concealed with seals and she uses that advantage to play the fox part of her, the cunning little girl waited for tsukimi to panic as she saw the bed of Naruto all empty with an open window, and jumped onto tsukimi back and scared the old lady.

"AH!" tsukimi comically jumped with shock before she turned around and saw the playful expression of Naruto, only to huff out. "you sly little fox.." she chuckled and hugs her after taking her from the back to her front and held her close. "you grow up so fast. But you are still not even 1 year old, now go eat breakfast!"

Naruto hissed playfully and boops tsukimi on the nose before she jumped off the matron´s arms and calmly walked to the dining room, her tail wagged along her footsteps, left and right, while ignoring the glares and shocked expression of the other adults, while getting awed expressions of the other kids. She got onto her seat and waited patiently for her food to arrive, which was normal kibble instead of wet kibble. She got a glass of milk which was surprisingly new instead of water.

"are you sick?" Naruto looked at the man who usually tries to give her boring meals, only to ask him curiously. He caught the genuine curiosity in the question of the little baby girl and smirked darkly.

"No, I am healthy."

Naruto didn't care much, only to eat her kibble. The first spoonful was already catching her attention, she narrowed her eyes at the food as the filling of the kibble was a poison which is used to put animals to dead. She didn't show any difficulty as she continued to eat the food calmly, her Metabolism was so high and strong it eliminated the poison immediately and turned it into energy and increases her immunity to lethal poison immediately.

The man beside her was inwardly celebrating like a happy goblin as he saw Naruto eat the poisoned kibble, only to find out it has probably a slow effect on the demon. When Naruto drank the whole glass of milk which was mixed with corrosive liquids, he was shocked, because the corrosion should have burned through her entire organs, but here she is stretching her arms a little after she finished her meal. He asked in stutter. "a..are..are you okay?"

"yes. And thank you. Because of your generosity to feed me poison and acid food, my body adapted and created an immune system for lethal poison and corrosion." Naruto calmly elaborated while ignoring the man´s stupefied expression. She got up from her seat and looked at the man as her eyes aren't Blue, they are glowing Dark Green with black slits. She stared deep into his soul and devours 10% of his soul to satisfy her demonic thirst. The man suddenly feels much more exhausted and simply took the dishes, and left.

The matron already was listening with her enhanced hearing, and noted it all down.

This was going on for so long, Tsukimi just thought they will give up in trying to damage or cripple the baby.

Another 2 months passed, now Naruto is 6 months old and visited kurama in her mindscape, deep in the night, as she was here to get the gift he wanted to give her after she fulfilled her training.

"papa! I did it! Did I do good?" Naruto asked excitedly, already she was on his left front paw and jumped to get his attention.

Kurama was extremely happy that she was growing up so well and healthy, despite the malice of the adults, she didn't care. He leaned close to her and nuzzles her little head before slowly getting up with her off him.

"did you do good? No. you did Wonderful, I am extremely proud of you pulling through the past 5 months without complaining. You read a lot, grew your own opinion of others and also have basic control of your Soul Steal ability."

Naruto was ultra happy to be praised for her hard work. She patiently waited for him to continue.

"I promised to give you something. You haven't unlocked your chakra, but you are well versed in meditating perfectly motionless on the spot. I will grant you the Senjutsu chakra of mine, the Kitsune sage mode."

Naruto knew about the sage mode of toads from minato and jiraya, now she hears of kitsune sage mod. She curiously asks. " I know the toads increase one´s strength, range, and overall power. The snake´s sage mode boosts their Agility, flexibility, and usage of the environment to their liking. What can the kitsunes do?"

"before I explain to you what it does. First you have to know, there are more than just 2 sage arts. The reason, why hagoromo was known as the sage of 6 paths was, isn't because of his rinnegan, but because he has mastered the sage arts of 6 different paths. The toads, the snakes, the slugs, the Tortoise, the Monkeys, and the Dogs. There is a reason why they all are here in Konoha, in the same place his 2 sons, the senju and Uchiha, lived and died. The toads are strength, the snakes are speed, the slugs are Vitality, the tortoise are Defense, the dogs are sensoric, and the monkeys are the balance to all other 5. Only after one has mastered all 5 will transcend like the Rekudo sennin did."

Kurama noted that Naruto was serios and listens at every single word.

"the kitsune sage is modified by me and my mother, the Wife of hagoromo. It is a sage path that contains all other 6 in 1 without losing an effect. The only downside is: you cannot step into the other 6 paths if you become a kitsune sage like my mother was. She was very powerful, she was known as a monstrous demoness travelling alongside the god of the world and each one kept the other in check. I will train you in the ways of the kitsune sage, teach you the kitsune style and all of my personal jutsus I got from my mother. Are you willing to sacrifice your time in the orphanage?"

At first Naruto was listening intently and was showing a serious expression, the more she heard the more her serious expression faltered into a surprised one because of what she actually heard. After he finished his question, she glared at him with absolute determination. "I want to make you proud, and become the Kitsune Sage."

"that's my daughter!"

Kurama grinned darkly as he felt her courage, he knew he did the right thing to trust her with the future. He suddenly released his true chakra that was surpressed for so long, a wave of crimson energy slammed into Naruto before his chakra calmed down once again.

Naruto felt her entire soul tremble with the new energy, it was the senjutsu presence of kurama surrounding her entire spiritual being in order to give it the experience of what the kitsune senjutsu feels like. After a few seconds, she panted heavily, drenched in sweat and already on her knees and hands as her soul was directly affected by it. She felt kurama´s concern, and quickly looked up at him. "what do I need to do, and how do I gain that beautiful presence for myself?"

Kurama was more than happy to know Naruto isn't damaged, and sat in a meditating position, like his father on that regard. "exit your mindscape. Meditate perfectly motionless like if you didn't exist in the first place."

Naruto didn't hesitate, immediately, she bolted outside the orphanage and headed to the garden of the same place in order to be outside the building and not accidentally destroy it. She was sitting cross legged in a meditating position as before, and fell into a meditation state. She hears kurama´s voice but doesn't react. "I will unleash my senjutsu chakra inside your entire body and you have to Tame and control it. Do not mistake it as your own chakra! You HAVE to enter the kitsune senjutsu taping your Own chakra, otherwise you will become an actual fox, with no human personality, and my body will automatically claim yours."

Naruto mentally noted that is sounded kind of kinky but she removed those thoughts when she felt the huge rush of demonic nature energy flushing through her Locked chakra network. She focuses on the chakra alone and only the chakra, ignoring her own chakra reserves which was a Massive ocean compared to a jonin chakra level which, in this case, was merely a tiny fish. She had trouble kneading and molding the demonic senjutsu chakra into her network, in her bones, in the bone marrow, in every single blood cell, her muscles, her nervous system, and also her Skin.

Outside the garden, several adults were watching as the demonic fox was meditating on the garten of the orphanage, the flowers and trees around the girl were blooming with more life while the ground beneath her cracked violently in a spider web design around her. The hokage, a few anbu, and Kakashi were paying close attention to the little girl. Hiruzen made is an order to not disturb the little girl of her concentration or they will be banished and killed.

The meditating girl´s body released a crimson red nova of visible chakra which did nothing more than increase the Fear inside every human being around the orphanage, the pressure of the chakra the little girl was releasing was enough to have the jonin and anbu sweat bullets and the hokage was already trying to control himself.

Naruto´s ears became full fox ears, her spiky and wild hair grew down to her midsection, like an ssj3 with Red and Blond in between. Her facial structure changed a little to look like a divine beauty with the features of a demon as her, her canines grew extra large as her jaw adjusted to the change, her bone structure got destroyed and recontrusted, her body is now 90cm of size instead of 60. Her tailbone grew 1 more tail which means she has now 2 fluffy tails, and the garden was blooming with life, while the entire sky above Konoha started to change in colour from bright blue to red. Hiruzen was now sweating as well, the power this young girl was exposing was tremendous and he, along danzo, and the jonin felt it was HER chakra instead of the kyuubis. They couldn't comprehend what was going on anymore.

A few more seconds passed, the sky back to normal, the atmosphere back to calm and peaceful while the pressure vanished. As Naruto was done meditating, she slowly opened her eyeballs were Pitch black, her iris were Blood Red like the Kyuubi´s and they glowed with menacing power before the glow calmed down into regular blood red eyes. She blinked a few times and was slowly getting up. Every single bone made an audible crack sound with each movement she did, because her new bone structure had to adjust to her muscles. Hiruzen walked up to the young jinchuuriki and smiled at her softly. "hey Naruto. What happened?"

Naruto smiled brightly at hiruzen and spoke with enthusiasm and too much energy for even a kid. "jiji! I just mastered the Sage mode of the Kitsunes!"

"s..sage mode.. kitsune?" hiruzen was shocked to hear that and asked just to verify his suspicious.

"is it possible you talk about senjutsu?" Naruto nodded at the question. "and you said it is from the kitsunes?" another nod. Hiruzen asked curiously. "how? And you didn't even unlock your own chakra, how come senjutsu didn't kill you off?"

Jiraiya who was nearby and listened carefully, was dumbfounded along with the 2 toad elders on his shoulders. Naruto brightly smiled at the hokage. "papa has told me I am able to harvest and control senjutsu, so he gave me his own sage mode, the kitsune sage mode he created with his mother! And I could only enter this sage mode if I haven't unlocked my own chakra yet in order to let it adapt to my physical and spiritual energy!"

Hiruzen was raising both eyebrows as she said "papa" before he realized who she was talking about. He chuckled softly and nodded. "I happen to have a friend here, your daddy´s old sensei came here to see you. Wanna show him your sage mode?"

Naruto already pointed one of her tails to jiraya´s direction and huffed out with a childish pout. "you know, jiji, stalking little girls in the dark.. that's not a good image for even a super perverted toad."

Everyone, anbu, danzo, hokage, even the elder toads face dropped to the ground comically. Jiraya was fuming in embarrassment as he walked out of the shadows and accussely pointed a finger at Naruto. "hey! Have some respect! Im the legendary, great, and galant Toad sage, JIRAYA!"

"but a super pervert who stalked a little girl while lurking in the dark." Naruto pointed out innocently. Jiraya wasn't able to get a comeback for that. She looked over at his shoulders, and bowed respectfully. "fukasaku-san, shima-san. It is an honor to meet the honorable elders of the Toad´s path."

Fukasaku raised an eyebrow on how she knew that while shima chuckled sweetly and jumped onto naruto´s left shoulder, patting her head calmly. "you don't need to bow to us, young lady. How about you introduce yourself to us?"

Naruto smiled softly. Hiruzen already send the jonin and anbu back to their duties as he summoned enma to also join the conversation. Naruto gently booped shima on the nose and giggled playfully. "I am Uzumaki Naruto, biological daughter of Kurama, the kyuubi no kitsune, kushina Uzumaki, and minato namikaze. I am 6 months old, and I have become the kitsune sage."

Fukasaku and shima were surprised to hear such mature and detailed explanation of a literal baby to kid human. Jiraya asked curiously. "wait, how can you be the daughter of the kyuubi? I didn't know they have genders.."

"papa is infact biological compared to the other 8 siblings of his, but he kept all benefits of a chakra body. So while he is a bijuu, he is actually a huge fox. And he is fluffy, soft, and super cuddly and AWW" she squealed like a fangirl before she calmed down. "and he was with me inside mommy for 9 whole months, if he isn't my father, then you aren't a toad sage."

Jiraya sweatdropped at that logic and asked in concern. "but he is evil.. are you talking to it?"

Enma whispered to hiruzen "she speaks the truth, I will elaborate shortly"

"Kyuubi is a he, and I will not allow you to insult him before MY presence" Naruto glared at jiraya seriously, as those demonic red eyes glanced into his soul but kurama told her not to. She sighed out softly and sat down cross legged to explain. "there is the sage of the 6 paths. You all know the stories, especially the sage beasts since gamamaru was the one who brought jiji hagoromo to the path of a sage. But as the ancenstors are aware of hagoromo, they also are aware of the demonic Kitsune woman that was always by his side." Enma, fukasaku and shima immediately turned their full attention to the little Naruto as she mentioned rekudo´s wife. Naruto continued, not caring. "this demonic kitsune is none other than the wife of rekudo sennin, known as the beautiful Devil alongside the god that travelled the elemental nations. Anyways, there are the 6 paths, the toads, snakes, slugs, dogs, tortoise, and monkeys. While these 6 is what made jiji who he was in order to transcend, the kitsune sage, which is also a transcended state, has everything the other 6 paths contain, in 1 path. Granny passed this sage mode to kurama because his other siblings didn't want to be with their mother, and he now passes that to me. I am currently at the baby phase, but I still need to unlock my own chakra which I can´t do until I reach the age of 5."

Naruto speaks while kurama fills her mind with what she should say in order to sound believable and be trusted. Enma walked up to the young kitsune and asked. "does it mean, once you unlock your chakra, you will transcend?"

"indeed." Naruto slowly got up from her spot and stared into jiraya´s eyes. "you are supposed to be my godfather. Don't bother. You have a spy network and you have to keep spies out of the village."

Hiruzen chuckled inwardly at the maturity of Naruto despite her age. He knew his gut feeling was to be trusted. Jiraya looked down and was about to apologise, but Naruto cut him off. "don't. I know you loved my father as his sensei, but I have no connection to you to be upset. You don't need to apologize for anything. In fact, I am thankful. I wouldn't be able to feel the love of a mother like Tsukimi-obaachan offers me every day." Naruto walked away form jiraya and headed to the head matron who was listening and watching everything. She knows about naruto´s foxy changes and never cared. Naruto hugged tsukimi on her waist, the elderly woman leaned down a little and hugged back the little kitsune humanoid before whispering. "I will always love you."

Kurama liked the development of the situation. While the village feels the demonic presence of Naruto, the jonin and anbu know she is innocent and wont harm her.

Danzo was walking away from the image, already in his own living room, enjoying a cup of tea before speaking to himself. "kitsune sage mode. While her blood killed my root and disintergrated into nothing, I can tell, she will be a great asset for the village."

As the story proceeds with Naruto growing to up to 140cm tall while at the age of 5, she was going through the days of her in the orphanage.

After her kitsune mode was fully mastered, kurama gave her a new training regime she had to do every single day until she leaves the orphanage, a training that has to be done without her own chakra and she isn't allowed to rely on the kitsune sage mode, so he locked it with a seal behind a barrier that will only break when she unlocks her chakra. She has to do: 500 push ups, 500 situps, 500 pullups, 500 squats, and run until she loses control of her legs from the fatigue, and it was all done while he placed Resistance seals, gravity seals, and weight seals, in order to increase the difficulty by 100 times. While it sounds like imminent death, her body advances 9 times faster than a normal senju, due to the buffs of her kitsune blood she also gains 9 times the benefits of all results in positive regards. She was physically strong, but her slim and smooth figure deceives those training results. She is a fine young girl which could pass as an actual princess if she didn't get looked and treated like an actual demon. Her demonic features make even chunin mistake her for the kyuubi.

At the age of 5, as she was hugging a goodbye to tsukimi, she left the orphanage and was brought to her own apartment by hiruzen. He gave her a monthly allowance which was equal to a A-rank mission, which is quite a lot, and hiruzen stated to her. "this is money from the namikaze bank account of the yondaime he entrusted me shall you need it. Spend it wisely, while there is enough, you have to learn to be independent."

Naruto hugged him softly before she asked. "I want to learn a few jutsus. Can you give me the scroll for Shadow clones, in case I unlock my chakra?"

"kage bunshin?"

"yes. We both know, I have so much chakra waiting to be unlocked that I dwarf even your reserves, jiji. It is only natural that the normal bunshin will take too much effort. The kage bunshin was created for this reason."

"good point, nice explanation. Alright." Hiruzen smiled at Naruto like a grandpa. "I will bring it the next time I visit. Until then, show me you can live on your own."

As Naruto was left alone in her apartment. She smirked darkly as she felt several malicious signatures waiting to be night to strike her. "oh, trust me, I can."

Kurama let out a soft yawn as he finally came to rest his head on his paws after he told Naruto. "go to one of the training grounds and unlock your chakra. Then you can use all the jutsus your parents could, and have knowledge of."

Naruto didn't wait for a written invintation, she bolted out of the window of her apartment and ran through the streets with the speed of Low chunnin without the usage of chakra. She entered the Training ground 7, which was minato´s and kushina´s favorite one. Reaching the 3 wood stumps, she settled to the middle one in a meditating position with her back to the stump. She let out a deep breath and concentrated as much as she did during the kitsune sage mode.

Kakashi was nearby because he was at the memorial stone and wanted to enjoy some alone time at the training ground 7, but as he was about to get out of the bushes to the clearing, he saw a blood red blur flash from one end of the field to the center of the training ground and was shocked at the speed. He widened his one visible eyes. `so..so fast.. and she didn't use chakra!´

He immediately rushed after her while concealing his chakra to the minimum, only to see her meditating. He was ontop of a branch of a tree, sitting, and spectating. ´she said she was told not to unlock her chakra till she is 5. It is today. What will you do, Uzumaki Naruto, my surrogate nee-chan.´

Naruto was in deep meditation, no sense for the outside world as she was standing before the ocean inside her mindscape, an ocean which was her chakra and she felt it. It was empty. She narrowed her eyes and jumped into the water, realizing she can breath, and let the weight of her body pull her down 100 kilometres deep into the water. Darkness surrounded her, a darkness so black it made the abyss feel bright, the only visible light in here was her blood red demonic eyes. She felt her body heavier as she kept sinking another 400Km in a straight line downwards. Her feet touched the floor of her ocean chakra and noticed it, the chakra was behind this very wall separating it from her capacities.

Kurama was watching intently as he was curious just how much darkness she contains inside her since her parents gave her their everything, literally. He felt her touch the barrier that allows the user to break in order to allow them to use chakra. He growled in excitement and said to himself. "that´s it, Naruto, release your darkness, allow the demon in you be freed."

Naruto narrowed her eyes dangerously at the barrier. "I have to break it…" she closed her right hand into a very tight fist, her muscles tensed so hard, her right arm showed the hard work as glowing red veins pulsed strongly with power, ready to cause damage. She took the memories of kushina and memorized the punching pantern, and just like that she drove her right fist into the barrier with all her strength. As her punch connected with the barrier, the entire ocean in her mindscape caused ripple effects from the pressure. She looked as she only cracked the barrier, and punched a 2nd time, then a 3rd. slowly the chakra came out the barrier, which should be more than enough to use her chakra without bursting her tenketsu, but she didn't want to stop, she enjoyed this dark feeling and punched the barrier even more until the barrier finally gave in after 20 minutes long of punching the same spot. The barrier broke entirely, and her entire ocean worth of chakra was finally filled to the very brim, and it happened so fast, the real body of hers detonated a nova explosion of Pressure in a radius of 100m wide, her crimson red chakra was visible to the eye, but neutral; waves of chakra kept coming out of her body in amounts that started to turn the training ground 7 into nothing but a Huge Crater with naruto in the middle of it. She opened her eyes and stared into her beautiful red chakra which has gold glitters in between, like the gold starts in a red sky, and a voice booming in her mind told her "NARUTO!"

Kurama calmed naruto down, naruto stopped her chakra flow and her real body passed out from the sudden chakra "usage". Kakashi who escaped from the chakra waved, in panic at that, was back by her unconscious body. The nova didn't harm him, as he panicked and left, he realized that her chakra isn't as dangerous as the kyuubis, it was neutral, but also warm, and dark, and more. He saw her pass out on her own and was flabbergasted from what he just witnesses. His hands trembled, but he picked up the girl and carried her to the hokage´s office as fast as he could.

Kurama and naruto stared at each other in awkward silence. After a few minutes of staring at each other, they bursted into a fit of laughter for several seconds before naruto calmed down first and panted a little, stating. "I got to admit, even with the ckakra mom and dad had, mine makes them seem like academics!"

"HAHAHA I know right! HAHAHA" kurama took alittle longer to calm down and Proudly smirked at naruto as he was hyped by that chakra outburst, his 9 tails swaying brutally and wildly behind him, causing the mindscape to become a little windy. "you did it naruto, now you have full access to your chakra which is also permanently merged with your kitsune senjutsu chakra. Means everything you have is dramatically empowered. But from now on you have to be careful. Despite having a permanent sage status, you cannot be careless. You are 5 years old yet you have enough strength to rival elite jonin in strength. Your body is reconstructing and improving even more, you will have better bones, better muscles, better tenketsu, and most of all, you will be even more beautiful but also Demonic. People will start to tremble at your gaze depending on your mood. Your eyes are more fearsome than mine, yet I am the proudest of you, I could be."

Naruto´s body grew a little more, she was at the growth of a 12 years old yet she was only 5. She knew what was going as she knew this information of kushina when she was still with mito Uzumaki, and asked her papa while staring at her feet with a blush. "d..do I look.. good?"

Kurama blushed at the sudden question, and didn't know how to react actually, he is a ancient old virgin demon. "I cant compare you with someone of my mother´s beauty, but in human terms, you will be seen as the prettiest Demon out there."

She was super flustered and wags her 3 tails lovingly. Then a quick idea came to her mind and asked out of the blue. "say. The 8 inner gates.. can I use them without the after effects?"

Kurama stopped his thoughts for a moment as he went back to his time with his mother. He remembers her words as she said. "listen, kura-kun. There are 8 locked chakra spots in every living being. In human terms, it is called the 8 gates of death, is what your father named them because his son Ashura unlocked them stupidly. These 8 gates are misunderstood. While they can be forced open like a brute force throught a cave, you also can unlock them by finding the keyholes in each of the gates. It is a reason they are gates, and it is a reason they are LOCKED. Every lock has a key to open it. The same goes for these 8 gates inside our bodies. I have unlocked every gate and permanently opened even before I met your father. Despite what the forced path gives you, this method is completely different."

Kurama went back to looking at naruto and said calmly. "there is a way to unlock the gates without the side effects. I have unlocked 2 out of 8 permanently, because even if I could easily permanently unlock them, I don't want you to die from the power I would unleash…, but at your state, I say 3 until you reach actually 12 years of age."

Naruto was surprised there IS a way to open the gates without dying. She narrowed her eyes while being in a thinking pose and humms while asking "is one of these gates, the reason for your power..?"

Kurama chuckled and nods at naruto´s observation. Naruto asked with a smile. "since I have the absolute memory from you, will I basically feel the effects without unlocking?"

Kurama grinned at naruto. "no. but when you open the first gate: you remove the Limits the brain has placed on your entire being, that means you will be, officially, unchained. The 2nd gate, your perception will increase by 9 times instead. Reaction speed, reflexes, thought process speed, everything what has to do with perception will be even better than they already are. The 3rd gate, it boosts your sensiric abilities to a level even sage mode cant compete. You will be able to sense everything of everyone, their exact emotions, their stats, their bloodlines, they hidden abilities, their elemental affinities, their own chakra signatures, Everything, and those that direct their ill intentions to you, their sensed beings are redish, like an enemy, while Blue is your ally, and white is Neutral with you. The more red, the more hatred. The more blue, the more the acceptance."

Naruto was widening her eyes with each gate information and her eyes were fully wide open, staring into her papa´s eyes in unbelievable shock. "t..these are just 3 gates.. and already so useful?"

"correct, but lets not forget the boost in physical attributes you also get by each gate, that will stay on you permanently as well. Once again, you have to be careful. Now wake up, your hokage jiji awaits you." Kurama went back to resting his head on his paws and slept.

Naruto chuckled at his napping before she exits the mindscape. Slowly opening her eyes and slowly sits up, on the couch inside the hokage´s room. She looked around calmly and remembers this room from his parents time, then looked at hiruzen who gave her a small smile. "you did quite the mess, naruto-chan. Want to tell me what happened?"

Naruto smiled sheepishly, and explained what happened from when he left the apartment to when she passed out. Nothing more. She let out a nervous chuckle and asked. "if it helps..i can repair the destroyed training ground.."

Hiruzen raised an eyebrow while smiling at her with mockingly. "you? And how?" he was playing with her, the mock wasn't evil. Naruto smirked and clapped her hands together rubbing her palms like a little demon about to do something demonic. "I want to show you if you allow me."

she got up and looked up at him. "say, jiji, can you refuse yourself in making me skip the academy? I would like to try and make friends there. Will be the only time I can relax before bexoming a full fledged genin."

Hiruzen was staring at his desk, a document stating he wants naruto in the fkn anbu, then sweated as he nervously responded. " is..is there a way we can find a way for both..?"

Naruto thinks. Within the fraction of a second, she got onto the desk and sat cross legged on it while staring at her anbu recommendation. She read it upside down. Just then, hiruzen realized she was in front of him and was surprised. ´such speed, definitely cant stay in fkn academy, this would be insulting.´ hiruzen thought to himself and heard naruto´s words. "I accept. But.. first lets go to the training grounds." This wasn't to negotiate, naruto already jumped off the window towards the street, safely landed gracefully as if the height was nonexistent and dashed with high chunin level speed through the village while several civilian were shouting something about monster, demon, kyuubi incarnate, fox demon. Hiruzen was shocked when she suddenly jumped out of the window and noticed how silent and gentle she landed on the ground without any gravity effects. "she is good!" he jumped right after her and ran right behind her. He heard what the civilians said, but as long as naruto didn't mind, he didn't mind either. He followed her easily only to see she increased her speed to elite jonin, catching him off guard for a second before he speeds up as well. Within 2 minutes, they reached the training ground 7 which is nothing more then a crater.

"so, how will you fix it, naruto-chan?" hiruzen asked with a skeptical look on his expression as he looked at her small figure. Naruto didn't pay attention to his question. Instead she crouched down on her knees to the ground, and places her palms on the very edge of the crater. She closed her eyes while concentrating on kage level of chakra in each of her palm. Hiruzen heard only one jutsu.

"yin-yang release: rewind" Naruto didn´t have minato´s bad habit with naming jutsus, she simply said what she thought of them. And as she sent her chakra through the entire crater, hiruzen was widening his eyes to see the entire place turn back to how it was in slow but detailed scenario. He sweated at the danger this jutsu could cause as he asked worriedly. "if I finished my paperwork. And you used that jutsu.."

"you would have to redo all the paperwork." She chuckled at his now paling expression. Hiruzen was placing his hands together and nicely asked. "please, never give me such nightmares…"

Naruto laughed out joyfully at hiruzen and the old man joined her in soft chuckles. After a few minutes of looking at the beautiful training field, naruto placed her hands into a cross, like a kage bunshin, but she whispered. "kitsune style: kage bunshin."

Hiruzen stared at naruto as slowly one of her tails came off her, and took the form of Naruto. Naruto´s tail grew back quickly yet the clone stared at the hokage. "I will go to the academy."

The real naruto smirked at the old man´s surprised expression. "seems I keep surprising you. And I will join the anbu. That way, you don't have to worry about me doing both. I will make friends, while also being an assassin. Under 3 Conditions!"

Naruto´s expression turned extremely serious, which caused the atmosphere around them to become very tense. Hiruzen dropped his grandpa act and took on the hokage act, his authority clashing with the tension. "I am listening, anbu apprentice!"

"1st, I choose the name and mask. 2nd, you will NEVER reveal my TRUE identity to ANYONE, unless I want to. 3rd, I want you to take me to a few shops, I want to buy my own equipment, clothes, and I need a Pass, that allows me to enter and leave the village without restrictions."

"1st, that is acceptable and I wouldn't have it different. 2nd, that is also acceptable, after all if a few anbu knew you are there, they will go after you. 3rd, the equipment and clothes are acceptable. But, what do you need the pass for?" hiruzen spoke with the power of the god of shinobi in his authority. Naruto, though, was used to worse as kurama literally forced her to accept the full might of his entire killing intent enhanced by bloodthirst and all his negative emotions over the years. She didn't even feel hiruzen´s authority, but answered nonetheless. "I will need to eat actual raw meat. While I am a human, I also am a kitsune, a demon fox. I have my needs, ya know?"

Hiruzen nodded and looked at the eyes of naruto. He held out his right hand as his grandpa act was back. "let me take you to the best shops I know."

Naruto complied, holding his hand like alittle kid and they both walked back to the town, with a few anbu finally finding their hokage and keep tabs on them. As they walked through the main road of the village, many civilians had mixed feelings. A few very happy to see the demon subdued, a few couldn't believe the hokage is controlled by the demon´s influence. Others are blind to the hokage´s presence and already started whispering hateful words only for naruto calm hiruzen as she felt his hand slightly tighten on hers, and told him without a worry, out loud so that the villagers can hear it. "do not worry, my influenced human. Those weak, fragile, and blind cowards will never accept the truth no matter how much you try to change them. At least you have fallen into my grasp. Ignore them. We have better matters to take care of."

Hiruzen looked at naruto like a fish out of water, he wanted to say something but she dragged him along and knew the best shops because of minato. Already entering mitarashi´s shop while the villagers were shocked to hear those insults but most of all, the demon influenced the hokage. They started freaking out inwardly but tried to not fall to the demon´s weakening words.

Kakashi chuckled nervously as he was watching what has occurred only to sweatdrop at naruto´s blunt admittance of controlling the hokage, and that in public. "my.. interesting turns of event"

As hiruzen and naruto entered the shop, they were greeted by a 6 year old young girl who was cleaning a kunai. "good afternoon, hokage-sama." She bowed a little in respect as hiruzen waved it off. "good afternoon to you as well, little tenten. Is your father here?"

"hai! PAPA! Hokage sama is here!" as tenten called to the back of the room, a large man came out the backroom and smiled at the hokage and the young kid next to him, already knowing who it is.

"hokage-sama, young miss. How may I be of service?"

Hiruzen patted naruto on her back and answered "today is her birthday, I would like her to choose whatever she wants. I pay."

Naruto smiled up at the hokage like she would smile to a loving grandfather figure. She then looked around calmly and hummed as she analysed the entire weaponry and armory. After 3 minutes she started her order.

" 50 kunai, steel alloy, 5 and a half inch blade. 75 shuriken, 4 pointed, steel alloy, 1 and a half inch blade each. 400 feet ninja wire, in 4 parts, 100 feet each. 20 explosive tags and sealing tags, and 2 utility pouches. 2 Daggers, steel alloy, 7inch blade, one side bladed the other not; a staff, steel alloy, 2metres in length, 10cm in width, blood red coloured. Please." Naruto calculated the prices for an exact A-rank pay.

Tenten, her father, and the hokage were surprised that a kid, younger than tenten, ordered so clear and accurately. Tenten was rather flustered at the lack of curiosity around naruto. "are you sure you aren´t interested in one of these swords?"

Tenten said, pointing to the sword section. "we got a zweihander here! And to its left a flamberge. The snake-like blade really helps when piercing and stabbing and slicing. Below it is a kukri and a billhook. On the other side there, we have chakrams, shadow shuriken, tomahawks, and throwing knives. There we have a trident, a scythe, a dual ended scythe, a pike, and a bladed staff. You don't want any of them?"

After a glance, naruto shaked her head. Further flustering tenten.

"Why tho?" asked tenten with a lot of curiosity why someone wouldn't be amazed by all these things.

This ´newbie´(naruto) simply wasn't interested. She has already mastered every weapon in this shop and fought hundreds of kyuubi clones using them. she knew their insides and outs, but eventually she realized a very simple enlightment and that was. A kunai and shuriken are possible the best weapon a shinobi could have.

Naruto looked at tenten and answered simply.

"Lightweight, expendable, manoeuvrable, reliable, aerodynamic, sturdy, comfortable, storable, ergonomic, defensive, offensive, long-range, mid-range, close-range, fusible, tactical, and above all, deadly. Kunai and shuriken have all of those. I can use all of the weapons in this shop, and ended up preferring the kunai above all."

Hiruzen was wondering how naruto could use all these weapons, tenten was amused by naruto´s claim.

"I like simple girls and guys like you, who can appreciate the quality of kunai. But it really ticks me off you claim that you can use them all." Her smile faded slowly into a frown.

"duel me." She said after a pause. Hiruzen and her father stepped aside already.

"no." naruto said firmly.

"duel me, I insist."

"I refuse."

"fight me you arrogant newbie!"

Naruto liked the persistence of this girl, but revelled in the irony.

"I decline, you ignorant fool."

Sly foxes always have the last word.

Tenten lost it. Grabbing a longsword from the back, she charged at naruto. Immediately, when in range, she let go of one of her hands and the hand still on the weapon thrusted forward.

-CLING- her jab was parried by a kunai.

Putting her hand back on the weapon, she jumped back and brought the sword upwards diagonally, and took a big leap forwards, while swinging down diagonally. Naruto dodged but tenten expected it, bringing the sword forward while drawing it up into a reverse crescent swing.

(note: a crescent swing is wheel the blade swings in a curved motion, where the tip goes up to down. A reverse crescent is when the tip starts down, then goes up. This only works for double edged blades, like a longsword.)

Naruto was surprised that a kid knew how to manoeuvre the weapon like that, since usually only genins and above know bukijutsu. What tenten just did was connect 2 swings, following a connected motion battle style. It usually leaves no interval between strikes, but extensive control and forethought is required.

Naruto blocked, and slid the blunt part of her kunai across the blade of the longsword, severely blunting the weapon and making it lose its balance. Naruto stepped forwards and finished sliding the kunai across the edge, and got to the hilt. Now that the distance between the two were less than a foot, naruto shifted the kunai for the sharp part of the blade to be touching the width of the sword, and with a push, snapped the blade of the longsword of the handle.

The young weapon master widened her eyes at how easily the blade snapped, that too from a fkn kunai. But defeated was not an acceptable answer. She immediately picked up a spear from the rack near her and jabbed forward in an obvious way.

Naruto realised tenten was attempting to premediate the flow of battle. She jumped in response, contrasting to the sidestep which was the obvious answer. The spear tip passed safely below her, and naruto landed on the staff of the spear, her added weight makes tenten stumble forward.

Naruto ran forward on the spear, gaining distance, then jumped to the side in a mid-air cartwheel, slashing the speer.

The weapon was fully cut through, leaving tenten to switch weapons and took out a kunai.

"your skills with a kunai are well proven, but can you deal with another kunai?"

With a smirk, tenten dashed towards naruto with clear evidence that a kunai was her favorite.

".." naruto didn't say anything, rushing forward, his kunai in reverse grip, in front of her, her other hand trailing behind her as she ran. She lowered her dashing significantly, after all she could go elite jonin speeds. But tenten was still clearly surprised at the velocity of the rush.

After a moment, the kunai made contact, and tenten held her ground, though evident shaking in her arms told naruto she was using all her strength while naruto was using the bare minimum she could use possibly.

´this kid, her strength is insane!´ tenten panicked in her thoughts.

The standoff continued and finally tenten gave up and jumped back.

´no, you don't!´ thought naruto, leaping forward at the same time as tenten, causing her to have no time to regain her strength as the standoff continued.

Naruto suddenly pulled back her onslaught, and in a full swing, swung at tenten´s kunai. She was pushed back strongly, bringing tenten to her butt and naruto continued to press her kunai against tenten´s before naruto swung one more time, knocking the kunai off tenten´s hand and pierced through the metal wall of the building, making tenten and the 2 adults sweatdrop at the strength.

"I admit, kunai is your strong point."

"naruto Uzumaki." Naruto held a hand to tenten.

"tenten higurashi." She takes naruto´s hand. It was a very smooth skin, silk soft, but that fragile like hand pulled her back to her feet.

Naruto finally puts her kunai on a rack in the store and looked at tenten with a soft smile. "my order, can I have it please?"

Hiruzen and tenten´s father clapped hands in the display of bukijutsu. The sandaime smiled at tenten. "very good control and talent in weaponry, young tenten. 6 years old and so well proficient."

Naruto looked at tenten as hiruzen complimented the human. "yeah, she is. But every single futon user will beat her. She has to work around that because relying only in weaponry without chakra or elemental infusion, she will be nothing more than an eternal genin."

Naruto walked up to the father of tenten and bowed her head a little bit. "I broke 2 weapons, sorry."

"don't be. You are incredible, even more so than my daughter for I have trained her ever since she is 3. You should be proud of yourself. The order, along the broken weapons are on the house."

Hiruzen was liking that. Naruto sweetly smiled. she took off with the scroll containing her order and left. Hiruzen stayed behind and thanked the man only to see tenten walk up to the kunai naruto left behind. She picked it up and was examining it closely because it felt improper in her hands.

"this kunai.. WAS DISBALANCED THE WHOLE TIME?! AND BLUNT?! I FRIGGING LOST TO A CHILD WITH A DEFECTIVE KUNAI?!"

Hiruzen and her father were speechless as they also examined the kunai after tenten, the man looked at the kunai and said silently. "imagine what that demon could do if she had a real weapon.." an evil smile appeared on hiruzen´s face as he heard that, he left and followed naruto to the clothing shop. They day continued until naruto was back in her apartment and hiruzen gave her an order. "be at my office at 7am sharp." And now naruto was going to rest after a wonderful 5th birthday.

During the middle of the night she was training with her papa in the mindscape. They changed the time interval inside the mindscape, 1 second outside is 10 minutes inside, they have more than enough time to train naruto in the kitsune style of taijutsu, ninjutsu, bukijutsu, and genjutsu.

While on the outside, her body slept for only 2 hours and was fully recovered, her mind was training for 100 times the amount, and she was driven to train as hard as possible to not waste a single second. When her resting time was over, she slowly opened her eyes after saying goodnight to kurama, and headed out of her apartment towards the woods in order to hunt for some raw meat. She concealed her entire being and also henged into a regular fox with 1 tail and jumped form tree to tree. Her henge is a Yokai henge which cant be identified by regular chakra sensory.

As she was pounced off the branch of a tree a right onto a rabbit with her jaw clinging to the rabbit´s neck, she noticed a kumo jonin staring at her while he carries a bag. Her eyes caught on who it was, hyuuga heiress, and she knew the kumo´s from her mother´s memories. The jonin dropped his guard sensing it to be a regular on food hunt, turned his back to the fox and left towards the exit of the forest. But the moment he turned his back to the fox, within a fraction of a second, a giant jaw of a fox appeared right behind his legs with its jaw wide open horizontally, and SNAPPED its jaw shut. The jonin YELLED and SCREAMED in pain and agony as he dropped on the ground like a wet sack of potatoes, and dropped the bag which contained a sleeping Hinata. The little fox elegantly walked towards his head, she gave a small grin of dominance as if she was looking at a tiny prey, a helpless and defenseless prey. Her blood red eyes glanced into his soul and stole 50% of it before asking out of curiosity, the voice was that of a mature, elegant and yet stoic lady. "tell me, did you really believe, you could come and go just as you please?"

The kumo nin was already halfdead as he felt 500 times more pain due to her stealing 50% of his soul, he groaned and drooled in agony as he gasped. "I. HELP! A MONSTER! PLEASE SAVE ME!"

Naruto´s fox expression turned into full of amusement and enjoyment, she pitied the man, nobody of Konoha would save him. Hyuga hiashi was secretly watching the scene, he saw it ever since the fox bit off the man´s legs and was frozen in place, his byakugan seeing Blood red Chakra instead of orange-reddish like a bijuu. What he heard next made him shiver and tremble in fear as his eyes couldn't look away.

The fox walked over to the man´s left arm, leaned in, she whispered with a fear inducing tone which was sinister, cold, dark and just evil. "a lower life form like you will not be spared from the hunger of this demon. The only path you have is to die"

She placed one paw ontop of his chest which made an audible crack noise, indicating that his ribs simply broke, she bites onto his left shoulder by digging her silver shiny canines into his flesh and literally pulled his entire arm off his body. He screamed and yelled in absolute pain as something was affecting him from fainting or numbing " STOP IT! PLEASE! I BEG YOU!"

"boo hoo, keep crying, keep begging, keep clinging to your pathetic life, little food" she devoured the arm entirely, clothes be damned. She stepped onto his torso with her other front paw, and bites his other arm off his body, and somehow he didn't bleed out yet, but hiashi and the now awake Hinata did their best to not make a noise. Hiashi noticed Hinata clapping her hands on her mouth and crying silently, helplessly besides the monster that could easily choose her as its next food. Hiashi wanted to move with every fibber of his body, but his body itself was feeling too much fear and dread to move a muscle. Only his byakugan, which he couldn't deactivate from the shock, was giving him this beautiful scenario of a monster and a human.

Soon the fox, after devouring the 2nd arm, was standing ontop of the man´s torso with all her 4 paws since she is only a regular sized fox, and crushed his organs and bones as she is still heavy because of the training seals on her. She simply increased the gravity and weight seals by 1000. The kumo nin was trying to gasp for ear only to widen his eyes in tears and see a the big inside of the fox´s wide open mouth. He already gave up, the fox closed her mouth around the whole head of the human and bites it off, basically beheading the man, and chews on that crunchy skull, gaining every information the man had about kumo and the espionage he did. Similar to human path, just more cruel. As she finished savouring the head, she got off the body and sniffed around, seeing Hinata still in the bag.

"oh my, another prey, even more defensless than the previous one"

"MEEP!" Hinata was scared as her byakugan catches the fox´s black eyes with blood red iris and black slitted eyes glancing at her eyes directly, she cried hard but silently, only begging once. "please don't.."

The fox looked at hinata´s soul and noticed it was too pure to harm. She calmly rested next to Hinata and concealed her true presence and licked hinata´s tears off. "shh..i wont… im your guardian."

Hinata was surprised as the evil haunting feeling was gone, and realizes the fox saved her nonetheless. She sits up and hugs the fox tightly with her little arms "Thank you! You saved me! I was so scared!"

Hiashi slowly walked out of the woods and headed towards the 2, still cautious because HE could NOT forget what he saw. He looked at the kumo nin´s remains, which was a pizza made of his chest basically, and then stared at the fox. "what…are you?"

"PAPA?!" Hinata was surprised and the fox calmly looked at hiashi. "you watched the whole thing, and still question me?"

Naruto slowly changed her shape from fox to her real kitsune humanoid appearance, shocking hiashi and Hinata to see such a beautiful princess. Hiashi then remembered the hair and chakra signature. "n..naruto Uzumaki?"

"the one and only, what you just saw was just a henged fox, but what I did was the real me."

Hiashi bowed his head respectfully "I would have been too late anyways. I am grateful that you saved my daughter."

Hinata was picked up by naruto bridal style and walked up close to the man. She gave off a soft and sweet smile. "don't be. Just keep her safe. She is too pure, she doesn't want to hurt others yet your clan forces her instead of encouraging her future with something other than a flawed jyuuken."

Hinata was flustered and red all over her face from being carried like that, even if it was a girl. Hiashi listened calmly and asked with a stoic expression. "wait, what do you mean flawed jyuuken?"

"exactly that. Hinata is of the flexible and agile nature, like water. Your jyuuken is based on earth potential. You will never get Hinata to learn your jyuuken. Her mother should have made that clear to you when she beat the crap out of you when you challenged her juho/gentle step against your juken/gentle fist. Also she wants to help but will only kill if necessary. Isn't it more effective to teach her medical jutsus, along with poison?"

Hiashi pondered on what he heard, ignoring the fact the 5 years old knew about this wife more than his own children. He nodded at naruto. "good point. I just have to convince the elders."

"fuck those geezers. You are the fkn CLAN HEAD!" naruto hissed, hiashi recoiled and Hinata curled up in narutos arms. "they control you and your whole clan while YOU are the BOSS, they are only to ADVICE you on your job to make sure the clan doesn't die off, but they are so stuck in the past they cant adapt to changes and the future!"

Naruto held Hinata close to her chest "if you cannot convince the elders, then disown Hinata, and let her live with me. You know I can take care of her better than your own guards and none of the elders would be able to touch her, and she still can learn from YOU and ME."

Hiashi was shocked to think a kid would bitch at him like that, but he knew deep inside his hyuga heart, the girl was correct. He glanced at naruto´s demonic eyes with determination and asked. "Hinata. What do you want to do?"

"eh? I?! you ask me!?" Hinata was confused as she was still clinging to naruto. Seems like naruto´s kitsune presence is making hinata´s pure presence attracted.

"yes my daughter. First, she saved you, not i. our clan couldn't protect you despite seeing everything, and apparently not. You couldn't compete against a jonin no matter how much I wished you could, so I don't hold a grudge to your weak body, its natural. But naruto-san is right. The elders will do everything in their power to turn my request down to train you like your mother trained. And they will try to brand you with the cage bird mark if you backtalk to your elders."

"but papa.. will you still love me..?" Hinata was sad. Hiashi dropped his stoic face, he smiled warmly at her. "I will always."

"then I choose to be trained by you and naruto. But I want to be able to visit hanabi every 3rd day!"

Naruto smiled softly at Hinata handed her to hiashi. "go. The hokage and his anbu are already here and waiting for me to report. Come to me, with her, tomorrow after you have woken up, ate breakfast and packed her things."

Hiashi´s byakugan flared for 2 seconds, catching 11 signatures and closed his eyes with a soft smile. "till tomorrow, naruto san." He shunshins away.

"jiji, you want to know what happened right?" naruto walked back to the corpse as hiruzen with 5 out of 10 anbu appeared behind him. "yes naruto-chan. I also heard your conversation and understand what you do is the right way. I think your kage bunshin will await them tomorrow?"

"hai."

"well, we have to inform the raikage that their kumo diplomat is dead."

"leave it to me."

"huh?"

"leave the negotiations to me, shall he happen to dare any demands." Naruto subconsciously growled like a wild beast literally, she gritted her teeth glaring at the corpse. "hahah… I hope he demands something." She released a dark, sinister broken chuckle. Hiruzen felt his back sweating when he heard a chuckle more bone chilling than orochimaru. He stared at naruto´s back who was walking away from the incident and heads to the hokage tower already with the hokage and 2 anbu. The other 8 started cleaning the mess.

As they entered the hokage´s office, naruto sat on the desk with the hokage on his seat as they both wrote one document for the raikage. The kitsune shared her information to hiruzen via memory sharing she copied from the Yamanaka clan. While the document was sent to the raikage within 5 minutes, naruto was helping the hokage with his paperwork, telling him she knows how things go and asked him. "why the hell do you have to do chore control for the civilians? Didn't you create the civilian council to remove the civilian burden off you?!"

"well..yeah.. but.."

"you naïve old man.."

"tsk,..cheeky brat.."

"HMPF! At least I know how to bitch at assholes and can back it up, what about you?! You are 72 for fucks sake, you have nothing to lose so give them hell. The next time you call for a council meeting, I want to be there and advice you."

Hiruzen stared at naruto as if she grew a second and third head. He thinks about the fun he could have witnessing naruto bitching at the council. He liked that. "deal."

15 minutes later, a document came from kumo. Hiruzen and naruto looked at the message and sweatdropped.

"they came here, faking an alliance treaty to sneak in our village, and the same kumo shit went to kidnap my adopted daughter. And now they demand for a hyuuga as compensation or they will start the 4th war?" naruto explained the situation. Hiruzen sweatdropped how she pointed the whole event with only 1 sentence. He chuckled nervously. " you see.. I don't want another war.."

"you will not get it.."

Naruto jumped off the desk with the document in her right hand and burns it in blood red flames.(usual fire jutsus are orange red.) she turned around and looked at the sandaime´s eyes seriously.

"give me a Kitsune mask."

"uhh?" hiruzen was interested in the demand and already prepared it, knowing she would want one for her anbu attire. He handed her the one he prepared. She placed the mask on her face and it suddenly took the exact shape of the kyuubi´s face. It was a Pitch black demon fox head which slowly cover the rest of her body into a full 3 tailed Black red fox with spiky strong mane(like a lion but fox).

"do you trust me, Hiruzen sarutobi, sandaime hokage?"

Hiruzen was staring at her scary mask that was literally turning her into a demon fox. He wasn't so sure if this is an anbu attire, but it sure fits In the darkness, and her eyes gave made him shudder in fear before calming down. He nodded at her. "I fully trust you. You haven't done anything to let me down yet."

Naruto wagged her three tails and her blood red iris were the only thing on her that wasn't turned into blackness. She nodded at the hokage, writing her own document and used minato´s hokage signature before scrolling it up and stores it away. She walked to the window of the office and looked back at hiruzen. "when you feel the kyuubi, be not afraid."

Suddenly she disappeared completely from his radar as if the darkness itself sucked her away. He slumped into his chair and exhaled out tiredly. "she literally turned into a black fox to the point only her blood red eyes are visible and nothing else.. I hope she protects the village.."

One of the anbu in the office, Cat, came out back from the kumo corpse incident and asked while trembling "h..hokage sama. .w..what was that?!"

Hiruzen stared at the anbu, noting that she didn't see who it really was before the mask was put on. "this is Kitsune. A secret unit that once worked for not only the Yondaime, but also the Red Dead. She has full knowledge of everything kushina and minato did from the moment they were born to their dead. She is Kitsune, the Demon. She also will officially join the anbu. She is not a human, do not Mistake her humane personality. Inform your captain."

Cat was shocked to hear there was someone this secretive and vanished. Thinking of the time she was trained by kushina and still felt this much of fear by someone the hokage regards as their ally.

Hiruzen looked out of the window sitting in his seat. His gaze fell to the direction of kumo and begged for kami´s mercy on the lighting village. But once he finished his mental wish, he could only hope that naruto doesn't actually eliminate a whole hidden village.
