Inner Thoughts

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto a shame I know lol

3 Weeks later

Because of Naruto's body and the damage caused he fell into a coma he's in the hospital with Anko staying there she's all healed up but she won't leave him ANBU are also guarding him as some people still fear Naruto.

Naruto opens his eyes and looks at the ceiling and groan "I hate this place."

He hears a chuckle "Doesn't everybody." He looks to the side to see Anko sitting in a chair eating dango. She finished the last dango and grins "About time you woke up what the fuck did you do to your body."

He sighs "Whatever I had to do to get stronger."

She sighs "And that includes walking around with internal injuries countless poisons running through your body your lucky to be alive."

He rolls his eyes "I needed to make my body immune to poisons."

Anko sighs "You do that in small doses gaki."

Just then the door opens and in comes Tsunade and Shizune she looks at Naruto and sees him staring at her she sighs in relief "About time you woke up you had me worried."

Anko sighs "He said he injected himself with poisons to become immune."

Tsunade sighs "Baka your so damn annoying." Naruto nods but is surprised when she hugs him "Don't you ever do that to me again."

Naruto yawns "So how's my body."

Tsunade sighs "All fine now but why wasn't the fox healing you."

Naruto scoffs "Me and the damn furball got into an argument a few months ago let's just say it had it's advantages and disadvantages."

Tsunade sighs "What am I going to do with you Naruto this was about the Akatsuki right."

Naruto nods "I've had a few run-ins with them over the years lets just say one became Sushi permanently, one Yamanaka wannabe is no more and another one's puppets failed to keep him alive but Itachi got away because of that damn Zetsu."

Tsunade is shocked "You've killed several of them."

Naruto raises an eyebrow "Didn't I just say that."

She sighs "So do you know why there after you."

Naruto nods "There trying to extract all the demon's from the nine Jinchuriki's killing the host in the process and trying to awaken the 10th Tailed-beast demon Juubi to pretty much bring peace by killing everyone."

Tsunade is in shock "That's insane."

Naruto nods "I know that's not all Madara Uchiha is alive he's the leader."

Anko grins "Well Naruto you got skills I felt them myself I really should have listened to you."

Tsunade smiles "Your friends are all worried about you."

Naruto sighs "Are they really, so what's my rank then."

Tsunade smiles "I would say Jōnin but I don't think you want to work with anyone so Tokubetsu Jōnin, like Anko here."

Anko grins "So what will his specialty be."

Tsunade smirks "Well Ibiki wants him says he'd be a great interrogator add to the fear factor but also your weapon skills are deadly so either ANBU or a three person team and that's not open for debate."

Naruto sighs "Fine ANBU sounds good but a three man team is good."

Anko grins "I better be on that team you gotta teach me some of those mad skills."

Naruto smirks "Your already insane Is that wise working with me."

She smirks "It's worth it."

Tsunade nods "OK Naruto or does The Black Phantom sound better to be with Anko."

Anko grins "He prefers The Shadow."

Tsunade grins "Team Shadow now we just need another member I have someone in mind NEKO."

Yūgao appears "You summoned Hokage-Sama."

Tsunade smirks "How would you like to join Team Shadow alongside Anko And Naruto or Shadow as he prefers The Black Phantom does sound pretty lame."

Yūgao takes off her mask "I'm glad your better Uzumaki-San and I would be honored plus you need to teach me some of those sword skills you were certainly trained by a master."

Naruto nods "I was, unfortunately, he was assassinated but I got revenge in Takigakure."

Yūgao smirks "That was you Uzumaki-San."

Naruto nods "Me and 2000 clones."

Yūgao smiles "It's a shame such a swordmaster died but how can you swing those massive swords with such ease."

He shrugs "Just hard work I guess plus a hell of a lot of practice."

Tsunade sighs "You sure don't do anything slowly what about your Taijutsu all three styles were different."

Naruto nods "Trained by a master in Sunagakure he was in the process of teaching me the fourth style when the Akatsuki arrived and killed him but I killed them both they came after Gaara didn't expect me to be there though."

Tsunade nods "So have you informed the other villages about the Akatsuki."

Naruto nods "They all know they didn't see my face though because of my mask I know they hated my dad."

Tsunade nods "Your free to go."

Naruto gets out of bed and changes then he leaves along with Anko. Yūgao followed Tsunade. Anko grins "You know you have a massive group of fangirls it was only small until your fight three weeks ago."

She chuckles "That's not all there is also Naruto Uzumaki action figures now with duel Katana and Duel Giant swords, of course, I have every figure."

Naruto sighs "You big kid."

She grins "But I have the real life action figure sharing my bed."

Naruto sighs "Where's my mask."

Anko shrugs "No idea." Inwardly she's laughing I have hidden it so now I can see you properly

They finally leave the hospital and they see a massive group of girls they see Naruto and scream his name Naruto grunts "Shit."

Anko grins "I have an idea."

Naruto looks to her "Go on."

She grins "LISTEN UP GIRLS NARUTO UZUMAKI IS MINE.

That doesn't really work as the girls start fighting her Naruto smirks "Seems you have it under control Anko I'll catch you later." He Shunshin's away leaving a pissed off Anko.

Anko groans "Bastard he left me to deal with this."

Naruto arrives back at Training Ground 7 looking at all the destruction.

He then senses over 20 Chakra signatures behind him he turns around and sees an old man covered in bandages "Naruto Uzumaki you will come with me."

Naruto bursts out laughing aloud that sadistic laugh from before "Is that all you brought."

Danzo shouts "Get him."

Naruto grins and does a few hand signs "Hidden Mist Jutsu" The Whole training ground is covered in mist and all Danzo hears is screaming then silence then he feels a Katana blade touching his throat "You really are a pathetic old man don't you think I know who you are or should I say once was."

He's about to cut his throat when Tsunade shouts "Naruto stop."

Naruto pulls the blade away and fades into the mist then it dissolves and the 20 ROOT members are cut into pieces. Naruto then puts away his sword "It would be easier for Konohagakure if that man was dead."

Tsunade sighs "He's a member of the high council."

Naruto grins "I thought you were smarter than that he's a plant he sells secrets to the enemy how do you think Orochimaru got into the Chūnin exams in the first place who do you think feeds Intel to the Akatsuki."

Tsunade is shocked "You have proof."

Naruto nods "I went to Orochimaru's hideout he has letters from Danzo as did Gaara's father they were rather sloppy they tried to hide it from me but I'm a lot smarter then you think he wants the position of Hokage he always has."

Tsunade sighs "ANBU take Danzo away." Several ANBU takes him away and Tsunade stands next to Naruto "You cause a lot of paperwork you know that."

Naruto nods "I know you should have let me kill him he has ROOT for all we know they could be within ANBU."

She nods "You may be right you are a freak of nature you know that."

Naruto smirks "It's good to see you, Baa-Chan."

She smirks "So has Anko told you about the Naruto action figures."

Naruto sighs "Yea she has every edition apparently."

She chuckles "So where exactly are you staying."

Naruto smirks "With that crazy snake lady."

She smiles "You know Anko's really changed since you got back I think she's falling for you."

Naruto raises an eyebrow then smirks "She's a crazy woman but it's weird when I'm with her I seem normal I was alone for two years other than with my dead Sensei's I never wanted anyone close to me but with Anko I don't know it feels nice I guess."

She puts a hand on his shoulder "A lot has changed since you left, unfortunately, people moved on when you never came back everyone moved on even Hinata for so long she hoped you'd come back but you never did."

Naruto nods "I see come on Baa-Chan let me buy you some sake."

Tsunade sighs "Fine but the good stuff."

Naruto grins "Fine."
