I own nothing.

Spark681 – That will have to wait for a little bit, but in the meantime, I hope you enjoy what we have.

Drakon45 – He won't be returning to Konoha…at least not permanently. He will be going back for some payback, some revenge, and some other stuff.

Alaxbird – well, my description of it was different. However, expect it to be extremely nerfed. It is not a world ender, but it is incredibly powerful. And no, Naruto won't be traveling the multiverse…though to be honest, it would be funny to see Naruto have some serious problems with it at first.

NarutoKushina – I didn't see the point of separating them after they had just gotten back together as a family. I figured it would be nice to see Naruto have his family back…plus what happens when the Akatsuki makes a code brown when they realize that the two strongest shinobi from Konoha are back. I have plans for members of Naruto's guild, and he will become friends with the Fairy Tail guild. As for the pranking spree…I have something in mind.

Zehendner – wait no longer

Ner9 – not, for the last time, Mavis is not in the harem. Though, I will think about Shion.

Chapter 9: Training Ends and Recruitment Begins

Naruto growled as he stood in front of a group of the knights Naruto used as sparring partners. Fifteen in total. Five had large armored fists with sharp protrusions on their knuckles, and oversized gauntlets. Five more had broadswords and shields. The remaining five were wielding staffs.

The following day after Naruto got his new summoning contract, Bahamut had infused Naruto with the dragon god slayer lacrima, and made the blond boy the world's first Dragon God Slayer. Bahamut immediately jumped into the

"Naruto," Bahamut said, "in the past five months you have trained under me. You have bled, sweated, and proved yourself worthy of my magic…now, show me what you have learned. Use only your dragon slayer magic! Begin!"

The knights charged at Naruto, the brawlers up first.

Naruto stepped back as he dodged one swing, and then leapt over into the air. As he landed, one shot forward with a straight punch to the chin. Naruto moved his head to the left, the knuckle not even grazing his cheek, before he shot out with a powerful punch that shatter the knight's torso.

The remains were sent flying back into one the sword wielders, who bashed the flying body to the side with his shield.

Three of the four remaining brawlers attempted to charge at Naruto in a pincer formation from behind while the charging knight attempted a stab.

Naruto simply spoke a new spell.

"Dragon God's Scale Defense."

A golden seal appeared underneath Naruto, and his skin turned gold, with a scale pattern for a moment. The sword slammed into his forehead and shattered like cheap metal, while the brawler's fists were stopped cold. Realizing their attack failed they tried to jump back.

Naruto smirked before sucking in a breath and unleashing a powerful roar. The roar didn't do a lot of damage, but it was able to stun the knights close to him.

Seals appeared on Naruto's hands as he his arms were covered in golden and black trimmed energy, forming in ta huge pair of claws.

"Claws of the Dragon God!"

Naruto swung his claws, slicing through the knight's armor, reducing him to pieces of scrap metal.

Naruto then ducked down to avoid another punch from the three brawlers, one of the coming out of its stunned state to lash out blindly. Naruto shot up, performing a brutal uppercut, which sent the it into the air.

The boy leaped after the dummy, grabbing it by the legs and throwing it into the remaining two, knocking them back towards the final on, farthest back. The brawler spun on his heel, sending the three flying back at Naruto who had sucked in another breath.

"Roar of the Dragon God!"

Naruto unleashed a powerful blast of magic as a blast of energy shot out of his mouth. The old and black energy struck the three flying brawlers, destroying them. As Naruto fell, he looked down to see three of the knights were aiming their swords at him.

They began firing blasts of energy. Naruto sensed that the magic wasn't elemental magic and brought up his arm, covering them in gold scales, blocking the attack, but they did nick his shirt and hair. Naruto landed, forming a crater on the ground.

Naruto crouched shot forward, and appeared right in front of the three.

"Dragon God's Explosion Fist!"

Naruto slammed his fist into the ground right in front of them, causing an explosion of gold and black energy that knocked the trio away. Naruto then spun on his heel, performing a round house.

"Dragon God's Tail Attack!"

As Naruto spun, a seal appeared on the bottom of his foot, sending out a wave of gold and black energy which moved like a whip, smashing into the trio and wrapping around them tight. Naruto then drew them into the air, showing some impressive flexibility, standing in nearly a split, he glanced backwards to the see the remaining brawler, and the remaining knight, and the five staff wielders, charging at him.

The boy swung his leg down, sending his bound opponents crashing down on the others.

Only two of the pole users, and the remaining knights and brawler saw what was happening, and dispersed, running in different directions.

Naruto's attack crushed one of the charging pole users and tore the arm off another, and the last one, managed to get through. It charged at Naruto, shoving its polearm forward with the intent on thrusting its weapon through his head.

Naruto dodged to the right to avoid the attack, and then then had to backflip to avoid the follow up.

Naruto crouched with a smirk, only for it to vanish when the one-armed staff user, and the whole one merged, gaining a few inches in height, and then separated its long staff, and shortening the two halves into a pair of kali sticks. The new warrior twirled the weapons with a smirk.

As it charged, the remaining staff user, knight, and brawler looked at each other and nodded. They stood back to back to back, in a circle as a seal appeared below them.

Naruto meanwhile, was dodging the now much faster warrior, the kali sticks glowing with magic. Naruto dodged one swing and caught the stick in his teeth, and with a grunt, snapped the metal stick in half. Naruto chewed the metal in his mouth, and then charged again, unleashing a barrage of powerful punches that knocked the knight back. Naruto then finished his attack by grabbing the knight by the head, opening his mouth extra wide, and sank his teeth into the fighter's head, tearing it off with the sound of tearing metal.

The construct fell backwards with a loud clang as Naruto crunched on the metal helmet, taking bites out of it, like it was an oversized apple. Naruto crunched on it and turned towards the three remaining fighters.

The seal was glowing beneath them, and their bodies were starting to meld together into a single form. Naruto response to speed up his eating. He then scarfed down the helmet, then he reached down and pulled off the construct's hand along with the kali stick and proceeded to scarf the down too.

As Naruto swallowed the last of the metal, the three finished their transformation.

In their place was a large warrior a few feet taller than the centurion. This new height was in its torso as it had to make room for two new pairs of arms. The middle pair had a large set of brass knuckles, the lower two had a pair of short sword and the top pair had a pair of kali sticks in its hands.

Naruto cracked his neck as he got into his stance.

The six-armed knight charged forward swinging all six limbs to flatten Naruto. The boy in turn started dodging, backpedaling a few feet before stopping as he vanished from sight.

The knight looked confused for a moment before looking up to see Naruto in the air.

"Dragon God's Adamantine Claw!"

Naruto held up his arms with flashed with gold and black energy, and were covered up to the elbow in, what resembled, gold scales with thick nails at the end of each finger and his thumb. With a roar Naruto swung down both hands, slicing through the knight's top arm at the shoulder.

Naruto then shot forward while the beat was stunned, unleashing a barrage of punches with his metal arms, forming fist-shaped dents in the armor. To finish up, Naruto drew back both hands and unleashed a brutal attack with both palms that connected to the knight's chest and sent him skidding backward a few feet, a large crater forming in its stomach.

With his opponent knocked back, Naruto began to focus chakra into his mouth and unleashed his final spell.

"Dragon God's Bellow!"

Naruto unleashed a massive blast of pure energy from his mouth, eclipsing the roar of the dragon god spell. The blast shot forward and slammed into the knight's stomach piercing the armor and blasting through it, splitting the knight in half. The two halves fell to the ground and faded from existence.

Naruto stood victoriously as he smirked, proud of what he had done.

"That was rather impressive," Bahamut said presenting Naruto with a towel and some water, "You've come such a long way in such a short amount of time."

Naruto nodded and was glad to hear it. Suddenly, a huge explosion went off. The dragon god and his slayer turned in the direction of the blast, seeing a blast of white light and fire in the distance.

"It looks like mom and dad are getting the hang of their new powers," Naruto said.

Bahamut said, "Yes. Come with me, there is something me and Mavis must discuss with you."

With that, the duo went into the main house where Mavis was waiting for them.

Mavis said, "I hope you are ready for some new work, Naruto."

Naruto cocked his head to the side and said, "You have a mission for me?"

Mavis said, "We know you are powerful, but you would be foolish to take on the entire group on your own. You need to put together a team. One that should be able to fight against the Akatsuki and their forces."

Naruto nodded and said, "True."

Naruto knew he was powerful, but if his mother and father had taught him something, it was that you should never do anything on your own, especially when you are waging a private war.

Mavis said, "Now, for this to work, it would probably be a good idea for you to recruit people from both this world and your home world."

Naruto said, "So how do I know who to recruit? There are dozens of shinobi, and I know that not a lot of them are considered…trustworthy."

Bahamut said, "I know this. That is why the goddesses have been hard at work. They have found several individuals in both worlds, who they believe would be good for your cause. Before you begin recruitment however, there is something that you must do. Reclaim what is yours."

Naruto looked surprised and said, "Super dragon say what now?"

Mavis said, "He means that you are going to have to sneak back into Konoha, and then steal back your inheritance, both from the leaf village and from Uzu."

Naruto nodded and said, "So…sneak into my old village, and steal what should have been mine. Is there anything else I should know?"

Mavis nodded and said, "Yep. There is someone there who we believe would make a good member for your new group."

Naruto cocked his head and said, "Are you sure? I mean, no offense, but my history with the village of my birth isn't very good."

Mavis smiled and said, "Don't worry. She doesn't have a lot of love for Konoha, and she doesn't have any relation to Danzo. Actually, you've never met her before."

Naruto blinked and said, "Really?"

The two nodded.

"Okay," Naruto said, "but if he/she tries to betray me, I'm going to wipe their memory clean and send them back home a vegetable."

The two nodded.

Mavis said, "There is also one other thing we need you to do. Within Danzo's office is a black book. One that contains all his dirty little secrets. Minato told us of a secret safe in the hokage's office, where he most likely has it. You are to steal this book. It should give us an edge over him."

Naruto nodded in understanding.

Bahamut said, "You leave in twenty minutes. There are some new clothes for you to wear. Get ready and meet back here with your little scissors."

Naruto nodded and then left to go prepare.

Twenty minutes later…

Naruto exited the main house clad in his new outfit. It was a black, lightly-armored shirt with gold accents outlining his muscles, making it resemble body armor, and a metal plate on the collar, for defense against strike to his neck, and some cloth was bunched up under his throat, indicating that there might be a facemask. His lower half was covered with black pants, and a pair of black, metal lines running shoes, mixing combat boots with running shoes, making them lightweight to run, and durable for combat, and they appeared to be attached to his pants. On his shoulders he wore a dark gold coat with black decorations and interior. It was tied in place around his waist by a belt, and the bottom below the belt split into three different tails. On his hands were special black gloves with gold studs on each knuckle. In his left hand, Naruto held a pair of black and gold goggles.

Naruto said, "Ready. What do I do?"

Mavis said, "Use the scissors. Imagine where you want to go, and you'll go there. You also might want to be specific in thought, as you don't want to appear in public."

Naruto nodded. He held out a hand and a seal appeared before him, and the scissors appeared in his hand. Naruto then focused on somewhere he thought that was always deserted. His thoughts immediately went to the almost always deserted Uchiha compound. He had seen it at least once before, and if Sasuke was as much an emo as he remembered it wasn't going to change any time soon.

Naruto pushed the scissors forward opening them, one of the blades cutting through the air and vanishing as it pierced the fabric of reality. Naruto then began snipping through reality, sending it up, until it was equal to him in height. He then threw out both his arms with flourish, opening a spiraling white and light blue portal.

Mavis said, "Oh, I almost forgot. Here."

She pulled out a small crystal device that resembled the lacrima used to give him dragon slayer magic. However, this one was smaller easily able of fitting in Naruto's palm and was in the center of a small disk.

"This is a multipurpose lacrima," she said, "This should enable you to contact us even from the ninja world, and the world of magic. To make sure, contact us when you get there. It also includes a maps, and allows us to send you information."

Naruto nodded and took the device which vanished in a flash of light thanks to his magic. Naruto then turned to face the portal, breathed, and then jumped through, the portal closing behind him.

The ninja world, Konoha the Uchiha compound…

Naruto stepped out the portal, stumbling slightly as he was not quite used to. He looked around and used his sensor abilities to see if anyone was around, and there wasn't. He also noted it was dark, as the moon was high in the sky, though invisible as it was a new moon and filled with clouds. The perfect conditions for a stealth and steal mission.

Naruto nodded and said, "Okay, let's see here."

Naruto pulled out the communication lacrima and in a flash of light, a hologram image of Mavis' face.

"Hey there kiddo," she said happily, "glad to see that you made it okay."

Naruto said, "So where exactly is this black book and where are they hiding my inheritance."

The hologram was soon replaced by Minato's face.

Minato said, "First, your inheritance is probably going to be back at our house. At least it would have been our house. It was meant to be a dummy house to distract from my safehouses outside of the village…provided it is still there."

Naruto cocked his head to the side and said, "You think you can explain, pops?"

Minato said, "You have to keep in mind Naruto, this information I'm giving you is pretty old. Thought we never gave out our address to the public, mainly to keep our peace, Sarutobi may or may not have gotten his hands on it and might have told Danzo. There is a small study where I did most of my work. There is a seal behind a picture of me and your mother that should contain all my notes on seals."

Naruto said, "What about money? I don't like the idea of breaking into a ninja bank."

Minato said, "Don't worry. I had a bank account, but it was filled with counterfeit ryo bills, so close to the real thing that not even an experienced bank tell would have trouble telling them apart. You can thank your perverted godfather for helping us with that idea."

Off hologram Kushina yelled, "That was my idea, and it was one of the few times I was glad that your father knew the old pervert."

Minato continued, "In my old room, there is a hollowed-out book with a small scroll that should have the money in it."

Naruto nodded and said, "Got it. What about the black book?"

Minato said, "Well, I'm not entirely sure. I only ever saw Danzo with it once. When I asked about it he immediately got defensive. Well, as defensive as he can get. If it isn't in the Hokage residence, try his office in the tower. If it is in neither area, that means he must constantly have it on his person."

Naruto nodded and said, "What about this recruit?"

Minato said, "We'll tell you about her later. After you finish your mission in Konoha, then you can head out to recruit her."

Naruto nodded and said, "Okay. I'll call you with an update when I'm done."

Minato nodded, and his image flashed out of existence, and was replaced with a map, showing where Naruto was, and some areas he needed to go. The boy then put his object away in his pocket dimension. He pulled the facemask over the lower half of his face, and then put on the goggles. Thankfully, the goggles used the same system as the ANBU masks which prevented him from having a glaring blind spot.

Naruto then jumped up into the air landing on a rooftop. He then took the high road and stared jumping from rooftop to rooftop. His time pranking the people here had its uses as he knew what tiles to avoid if he wanted to remain undetected.

Naruto, however, noted that there was something different. Normally, at this time of night the streets were abandoned. However, this time, it was alive with activity. He noticed a few people in the streets, all in ANBU garb, and with masks that were blank.

'What the heck?' Naruto thought, 'Who are these guys? What are-'

His thoughts were cut off when his mind let out alarms. Naruto stopped and immediately hid in the shadow of nearby chimney as another blank masked ANBU landed on the roof, moments ago. The man looked around as if trying to find something, or someone.

Naruto looked surprised at the appearance. Apparently, Danzo wasn't as lax on security as he thought he was. This mean that getting into the hokage's office as well residence was going to be much harder than I thought.

Suddenly, the man stopped and put his hand to his ear.

"This is unit 25," he said, his emotionless voice made Naruto shiver slightly, "Are is clear. How is it on your end?"

There was a voice on the other end that Naruto couldn't hear, even with his enhanced hearing. He sent a small amount of chakra into his ears.

"-re clear on our end. I'll check with the other teams. Continue patrol, unit 25," another equally emotionless voice said.

With that, the blank masked ANBU went on his way. As he walked, he spared a glance back where Naruto was hiding, only to see him Naruto wasn't there.

Meanwhile Naruto had moved from his hiding place and was currently sticking to the wall to hide.

'Patrols,' Naruto thought, 'He has patrols. Danzo has increased security since the last time I was here. This is going to make things harder.'

Naruto let out a breath to calm himself and then started moving. Following the map, Naruto swiftly found himself to his families' old home. The home that should have been his years ago.

Naruto entered the house and found that it was the same. Apparently, it had been preserved for history's sake, the home that Minato Namikaze had built.

Naruto entered the home, making sure that he closed the door so that no one would notice and become suspicious. Naruto then proceeded to examine the house, going from the kitchen to the living room and the kitchen. Eventually heading upstairs. Naruto then walked past a room with a crib, a mobile, a few stuffed animals, and a few other things most notable for a baby to have. Naruto clenched his fist as he remembered his burden and what it cost him but shrugged it off and went back towards the mission.

After a few minutes, Naruto had found both scrolls where he found them. After finding them, he proceeded to seal them away in his pocket dimension with his requip magic.

Naruto then left the home, leaving no trace that he was there. Naruto smirked as he made his way to the center of the village. He started to make his way to the hokage mansion. As he went, Naruto immediately noticed that the patrols began to become more frequent.

After some time, Naruto landed a few feet from the mansion and noticed that there were guards almost everywhere. Naruto narrowed his eyes and unleashed a small pulse to get his bearings. He found that there were several guards outside on the mansion grounds as well as inside. Naruto was able to recognize the first two at the main gate, as Kotetsu and Izumo as he knew the two guards almost instantly given they were almost always the ones who attempted to stop him during his pranking raids…and they were almost always on gate duty.

Naruto thought about it for a second and proceeded go through hand signs and activated the chameleon jutsu.

The light around Naruto warped and then he vanished from sight becoming invisible to the naked eye. Naruto then proceeded to head in towards the mansion.

Naruto leapt up as silently as he could. He landed on one of the posts on the gate surrounding the mansion and glanced around. A wind picked up and Naruto's coat got caught in the wind.

Kotetsu raised his head up at the sound seeing only nothing, as Naruto had jumped down from the post just as he looked up.

"What is it?" Izumo asked.

Kotestu answered, "Nothing. I thought I heard something."

After that Naruto made a mental note to not include his coat whenever he performed stealth missions. Naruto made his way across the yard, stealthily moving from tree to tree just under the guards' noses. However, he did almost get caught a few times, a sharp eyed ANBU being able to notice slightly distortions in the air, but a few of them dismissed it as the lack of sleep getting to them before they turned their attention back to the fight.

Once inside, Naruto began to quietly ransack the place. He went through room after room, until he found what he believed to be Danzo's personal study. He went through all the books as quietly as possible, checking behind picture frames, and paintings, under desks for seal, or anything along those lines. However, after nearly an hour, and almost getting caught several times, due to squeaky floorboards and the occasional side glance by the ANBU, Naruto found nothing.

Naruto then made his way out of the building, finding a blind spot in the guards and making his way out. With that done, Naruto then sealed away his coat with requip, learning his lesson from nearly getting caught by Izumo and Kotetsu.

Still invisible Naruto made his way to the tower, hoping to find what he was looking for. Naruto then proceeded to go through the office. Checking every desk drawer, even the closet, he even went so far as to check the secretary's desk but found nothing there.

Naruto sighed as he pulled out his lacrima and activated it, making Minato's face appear.

"Dad," Naruto said, "One part of my mission is a failure. I couldn't find the black book in the mansion, or in the tower."

Minato sighed and said, "I can't say I'm surprised. Danzo is one tricky bastard, and probably somewhat paranoid. There is no doubt in my mind that he would keep it with him all the time. Even if he did lose it, I wouldn't be surprised if he had something to make sure nobody else could read it."

As Naruto and his father talked, Naruto didn't see a figure begin to rise out of the shadows. Another ANBU with a blank mask began to move towards him, slowly, silently, with his hand on his tanto.

As he charged forward and swung, Naruto felt his danger sense go off like an air horn to the ear. He immediately dropped, almost doing the splits, and shot out an elbow, nailing the ANBU in the stomach, knocking the air from his lungs, making him gasp. Naruto then lashed out with two more attacks, one to the throat to silence him, and another to the crotch, making him double over in pain, falling to his knees. Naruto then spun as he stood up, facing the ANBU, throwing the lacrima into the air, and delivered a double strike to both temples, knocking him out.

Naruto caught the lacrima and said, "Dad, we got a problem. One of the ANBU snuck up on me."

Minato gasped and said, "What? With your sensor abilities? How?"

Naruto sighed and said, "This guy was so well hidden, I didn't see or sense him. He most likely specializes in sneak attacks or stealth operations. More than that…he doesn't seem to have any emotions. I didn't sense any malice from him when he attacked."

Minato rubbed his chin, his hand becoming visible on the lacrima, "Hmm, definitely a sign of Danzo's training. Did you at least get what you needed from our home?"

Naruto nodded in response.

Minato nodded in return and said, "Good. Now get to outskirts of the village. There is one last thing your mother wants you to do before you go. Also, be sure to wipe that ANBU's mind. The last thing we need right now if for Danzo to put your face, even if masked, in the bingo book."

Naruto nodded as the lacrima stopped receiving. Naruto then turned towards the downed ANBU and went through hand signs for a special technique used by the Yamanaka clan. The Mind Destruction technique, however Naruto did something different. He pressed his gloved hand to the ANBU'S face. Naruto then proceed to enter the ANBU's mind and unleashed a blast of electricity due to adding lighting chakra. The result was the ANBU's brain being fried, and completely useless to someone who could walk through them. Naruto called it, the Mind Scramble technique.

Naruto stood up and proceeded to leave, dodging guards until he reached the outskirts.

Once he was sure no patrols were coming, Naruto took out the lacrima, revealing the face of his mother.

Naruto said, "Hey mom, what did you want to tell me."

Kushina smiled at the sight of her son and said, "So Naruto, there is a small temple on the outskirts. There, there are a lot of masks that once belonged to the Uzumaki family. If everyone's forgotten about us, like you told us it is probably still there."

Naruto said, "Really? What is there?"

Kushina answered, "A bunch of masks."

Upon getting silence Kushina said, "Yes I am serious. Those various masks can be used to summon creatures of great power, no that they know it apparently. I mean, I used to not believe it until I saw the Shinigami myself after I died. Anyway, those masks are part of our heritage, so you are taking them back, ttabane!"

Naruto nodded and said, "You got it."

Naruto put away the lacrima and began going through the forested area. It didn't take long, as without the guards Naruto was free to use his sensor abilities. Naruto managed to find it quickly and got there just as fast. Naruto looked at the ruined building and was greatly annoyed.

Naruto growled in annoyance before going up to it. Naruto pushed the flaps and rubble away and made his way inside. Naruto looked around and saw the various oni mask decorating the wall. Naruto immediately noticed that one of the was missing.

Naruto then reached into his jacket, accessing a seal hidden in the black of the interior. In a puff of smoke, the onyx purification urn appeared. Naruto then opened the pot and using it, sucked up all the masks until they were all gone. Naruto resealed the urn and then pulled out his shakujo.

Naruto focused his chakra, his yin chakra, to be specific. The chakra traveling up the shaft and caused the ring with the yang symbol on it to glow.

"Yin/Yang Release: Creation."

In a bright flash of light, the masks were replaced with replicas.

Naruto smirked under his mask as he walked away from the fake masks. However, he was worried about the mask that was missing. He would ask his mom.

With his sneaking and stealing done, Naruto then pulled out his lacrima from his requip portal and examined it, showing the map to the new way to the compound. It was time to start recruiting. Naruto messed with it a bit and went through it to find a file on the who he was supposed to be meeting with.

Naruto read her name aloud.

"Yakumo Kurama."

For a brief moment, Naruto could have sworn that he felt the nine-tails stir within his mind for a moment.

Meanwhile…

In her room, Yakumo sighed as she continued to pain away at the picture, once again unable to sleep. The browned haired girl had at one time been a valued member of the Kurama clan. The girl sighed as she stopped the painting.

Once again, she was kept up by the voices in her head. In the past two years things had changed for the Kurama clan heiress. After being sworn in as hokage, Danzo had approached her family and told her what had happened years ago, clearing up that Hiruzen hadn't been the one to attempt to kill her, but it was part of her other personality. Since then, she had been given special vitamin and supplement rich meals to help build up her weak body to make her fit for shinobi abilities. She had patched up her rocky relationship with Kurenai…though that had been difficult with her other personality. Thankfully, Inoichi Yamanaka had made it a priority to help her deal with her maddened half. After a year, she was cleared for shinobi training, and was now eager to learn.

However, things were not as they seemed.

Her uncle Unkai had continued to be paranoid around her, which was partly understandable given that she had killed his brother and sister-in-law. However, earlier in the day she overheard her uncle speaking to some of her clansmen. Apparently, they were considering marrying her off to the Uchiha boy so the Kurama clan to gain some form of prestige.

She had seen the Uchiha boy before, once when she was in town after being allowed to leave the house and she was disappointed after all the stories she heard about him. He seemed pale, cold, and he gave off an aura that made her uneasy. She tried to talk to her uncle about it, but her words went unanswered. When her uncle and herself talked to Danzo she swore she felt a genjutsu almost enshroud her mind, but her other self and her specialty in it, but just barely. She tried to tell her uncle about her suspicions, but they went unanswered as he walked away, mumbling something about nobles and arranged marriages.

Yakumo sighed as she looked at her unfinished painting.

Is that what her life was going to lead to? To finally have her dream within reach just to have it ripped from her by a greedy old man?

She sighed as she remembered something else that she had heard through town…another boy who she would have like to meet…Naruto Uzumaki.

The boy was apparently considered inept and a failure by those around him. However, after finally becoming a ninja he had done some incredible things. Saving princesses, inspiring a country to move against tyranny, defeating an insane jinchuuriki, and more.

Many people seemed to give what he'd done to Sasuke, but she didn't believe it, mainly because a lot of them seemed to hold bias against him for some reason that they refused to talk about. If they didn't have a reason, she didn't believe them.

"Yakumo Kurama?"

Almost immediately, the girl spun around brandishing her paintbrush as menacingly as she could, as menacingly as you could brandish a paintbrush anyway. Chakra was being focused into it, turning the brush end into a small group of needles.

As she brandished her makeshift weapon…she found herself staring at a man clad in black and gold.

"Who are you?" Yakumo asked suspiciously, "How did you get in here?"

Naruto simply answered, "Security here is surprisingly lax. It is like they don't expect anyone to sneak past the illusions you have wrapped around the place."

Yakumo stepped back and asked, "Answer me!"

Naruto raised his arms and said, "Easy there my dear. I'm not here to cause problems. I'm here with an offer. If my information is right you are no fan of Danzo Shimura, yes?"

Yakumo steadily relaxed, but she didn't completely let her guard down. She looked at Naruto with a raised eyebrow.

"What do you have against Danzo?" she asked.

Naruto said, "That is privileged information my dear. However, I hear that you are something of a prodigy in the world of illusions…ones so powerful that they can become real…not many can boast this."

Yakumo cocked her head to the side.

"What do you want?" she asked, her brush still poised to strike.

"To make an offer."

Yakumo raised her eyebrow.

Naruto continued, "A war is coming my dear. A war that may reach the corners of the globe. I am putting together a…shall we say…an organization…one to fight the oncoming menace that many do not yet see coming."

Yakumo asked, "What do you want me for then?"

Naruto answered, "You are a talented individual Yakumo…your illusions could turn the tide of battle with a few waves of the fingers. That is a power I would like to have by my side…if necessary. In other words, I want you to be part of my little group."

She looked surprised at the offer. The though of getting away from the village was enticing, especially if Danzo tried to pull her strings again. However, he was asking her to become a criminal. Potentially a missing nin, where she would be hunted for the rest of her life for abandoning her village.

Naruto answered, "I see that you are conflicted. I understand that I am asking much of you…asking you to leave the only home you have known. Do not worry, you will have a warm bed and home to stay, food, and supplies, but in the process, you will most likely be branded a missing nin…with all the baggage that comes with it."

Yakumo was hesitant.

Naruto reached into his coat, causing Yakumo to raise her brush. Naruto pulled his shakujo. With a wave of it, and a focusing of chakra into the yin chakra ring resulted in a barely perceptible flash of light. Some of the guards saw the flash from Yakumo's window but disregarded it as Yakumo being up at night.

Naruto held out miniature three-pronged kunai. Small enough to be considered a small badge…or a trinket you could get at a gift shop.

"You may have time to think about it," he answered, "You only have a week before this thing self-destructs…I suggest you use that time to consider my offer. If you accept my offer, simply focus chakra into this. What happens after that is up to you."

Naruto sealed away his staff and said, "Sleep well, my dear."

With that, Naruto vanished via shushin. Yakumo looked down at the object in her hand as her mind raced.

A distance from the Kurama compound…

Naruto walked through the woods and brought up his lacrima. An image of Kushina appeared.

Naruto said, "I gave out the message, but I'm not sure that she's going to accept."

Kushina said, "You are asking a lot of her. Did you do what we suggested?"

Naruto said, "Give her the miniature hirashin kunai with a self-destruct system in it, set for a week, and if she doesn't…teleport in and wipe her mind of our encounter."

Kushina smiled and said, "Good boy. Now…there is one last thing you have to do here before you leave. There is one last piece of heritage. It's not here in Konoha…it's in Uzushiogakure."

Cut! Okay, Naruto briefly returned to Konoha to get his inheritance, both from Konoha and from Uzu, though it appears that is going to be harder than it looks. Naruto's new appearance is a mix of Vergil from the original Devil May Cry, and Archer from Fate/Stay Night. He mainly wears Archer's clothes with Vergil's coat.

Anyway, here we took a break from fighting and training to have Naruto act as stealthy as possible. Now, Naruto still almost got caught plenty of times, so he wasn't completely undetected, however, he Danzo still has his black book, something that will come up later.

Naruto also begins recruiting with the one girl in Konoha who had a grudge against Danzo might have, as none of the others have a reason to question her at the time. Now, Naruto moves on to Uzushio to see his ancestor's home and find what they might have left him.

As for the seals in his coat as opposed to requip, again, magic and chakra to do not react well.

Naruto's new magic

Requip – Naruto has learned requip magic, however, he mainly uses it to store supplies and Gilgamesh.

Dragon God Slayer Magic – Dragon God Slayer Magic is the highest form of dragon slayer magic. This allows the user to consume all forms of elemental magic and amplifies it. The more of an element that can be eaten, the more powerful the spell can be. It is so powerful that the user can even consume god slayer and other dragon slayer magics, using them against their enemies. Side effects of the magic can include increased natural strength, enhanced senses, and a resistance to high and low temperatures.

Despite how powerful this magic is, there are drawbacks. Much like all dragon slayers, the user cannot withstand being on vehicles, as they are cursed with motion sickness. Also, the user cannot consume non-elemental magic, such as Sword Magic, or Magic Bullets.

Dragon God Slayer Magic Spells

Dragon God's Scale Defense – Naruto's few defensive spells for this magic. Naruto covers himself in scales, adding an extra defense to his skin. He can withstand powerful impacts, but significant force can break it.

Claws of the Dragon God – Naruto wraps his magic around his hands forming sharp claws, which can tear through several sheets of metal. This can be used on one hand, for a powerful slash attack, or on both hands for a powerful barrage of slashes. He can even use them on his legs to enhance his kicks.

Roar of the Dragon God – Naruto unleashed a blast of energy from his mouth. This is Naruto's go to long-range spell.

Dragon God's Explosion Fist – Naruto focuses his magic into his hand and unleashes a blast of energy on impact, causing explosion. Depending on the amount of magic, the explosion can be enough to knock a person away, or shatter every bone in their body.

Dragon God's Tail Attack – Naruto unleashed a roundhouse, which lashes out with a powerful ship of magical energy. This can also be used to wrap around his targets.

Dragon God's Adamantine Claw – a spell that Naruto can only access after eating metal. An enhanced version of his Claws of the Dragon God the metal is nearly unbreakable adding extra strength to the spell.

Dragon God's Bellow – an enhanced version of the Roar of the Dragon God. This spell contains a lot more power as it calls on Naruto's god version of his magic.
