-1Sorry That I have not updated, but I was really busy the past week, so… yeah. Anyway, I have decided that I will only be updating this fic like once a week, twice if I get in the mood to do more. But, plan on only once.
Ok to begin this chapter I thought that I would outline the abilities of Naruto that he gets from the Rin'negan, as it is a cause of some speculation. The first ability that Naruto receives from the Rin'negan allows for him to quickly copy/master jutsu as well as access to all six chakra affinities Earth, Fire, Water, Wind, Lightning, & Wood. The Second, grants a higher-frame of perception, high accuracy insight surpassing the Sharingan and gives the user three times the normal human visual range, making it a rival of both the Sharingan and the Byakugan. The next ability allows for Naruto to transfer a part of his soul into his defeated opponents' bodies, thus that body also gaining the Rin'negan. An off-shot power of this ability allows for all the bodies to share the same field of vision, thus seeing from all angles at once. The Final ability allows for Naruto to share his eyes with his summoning animals, thus also gaining their perspective. All abilities found on Narutopedia
It may seem like I am making this into a 'Super Naruto' fic, but there is a reason to the madness. You see, the suppression seal not only messed with his appearance and bloodline, but also with his ninja skills. With it on, Naruto would have been like the bumbling idiot he has always been , but now he is able to think more clearly and is able to gain full access to his chakra, where as with the seal he would be able to only access a third. Also, you have to admit, not many people can stand up to a Kyubi-fied Naruto.
Giant-Disclaimer- I do not own Naruto or any other related by products of Kishimoto's mind. Nor do I own any other anime themes that may appear.

The Hokage began to visibly sweat at this moment, this was a talk he had hoped he would never have to have…
Chapter 2- A New Life
Sighing loudly the aged Hokage made his way over to the picture of the Yondaime Hokage behind his desk piled high with near forgotten paper work. "You may want to sit down for this Naruto-kun," Sarutobi called over his shoulder to the young boy, "we will be here for quite a while." As Naruto made his way to sit in front of the Hokage's desk, Sarutobi removed the frame from it's position on the wall, revealing a sealed vault underneath.
Opening and removing what appeared to be a giant scroll, from the safe, the old Hokage replaced the frame upon the wall. Moving to sit behind his desk, Sarutobi placed the scroll upon his desk, shoving paperwork onto the floor to be dealt with later, "Now Naruto, I will be honest with you this is something that I had never wished to be revealed, but under the current circumstances , I guess I must." Pausing to light his pipe and take a few drags, Sarutobi sighed, " I should probably start from the beginning, you see Naruto, you are the son of Uzumaki Kushina, the Red Death, and Namikaze Minato, the Yondaime Hokage." he had to stifle in a laugh as the young blonde nearly fell out of his chair with shock clearly written on his face, " Now, before you interrupt, let me continue. Now, your mother, Kushina, is not originally from Konoha; she is in fact from the former Whirlpool country. Her clan, the Kazama were the last descendants of the Rokudou Sennin, and as such the possessors of the Rin'negan, the very eyes that you now have. But, the clan was feared because of their power, and the rest of whirlpool tried to kill them all off, only to destroy itself in the process. The only survivors where your mother and her twin brother, Nagato, who got separated from her and, to our later knowledge, ended up in Ame. When your mother came here, she was given sanctuary, took a new name, and started to make a name for herself, the Red Death was such because she was able to kill a thousand people in a single night and returned trench completely in the enemies blood. Over time, your parents started to get to know each other and eventually fell in love. Shortly after their marriage they decided they wanted a baby, you. Unfortunately, as you know the Kyubi attacked on the date of your birth and your father gave his life to seal it inside of you. Sadly, your mother died giving birth to you; and you know the rest of the story. Your father wished for you to be seen as a hero of this land, but he was a little to much of an idealist for my or your mother's taste. So with my help, your parents wrote this letter to you," at this, Sarutobi hefted the scroll to Naruto, "They wanted me to give this to you when you reached the age of sixteen, but as you've already figured out this much, why wait."
Staring at the old man in front of him, Naruto barely acknowledged the scroll that had been handed to him. This was just to much to take in all at once. Not only was he the son of the greatest shinobi known in the elemental countries, but he was also the last heir to the most powerful clan in the entire world, how could one deal with something like that. However, he also began to think of how his own father could condemn him to a life such as this, how could he ever justify killing his son's life even before he was born. It just wasn't fair in Naruto's mind. Only one word could escape his confused mind, "Why?"
Confused, Sarutobi asked the only sensible that he could think of, "What do you mean, Naruto-kun?" However, he immediately realized that was a really bad mistake. "What I mean is, how the hell could he do this to me!?" Naruto nearly shouted at the old man, "Ho could my own father condemn my life to hell? It just isn't fair, Why did he have to choose me!?" It was completely irrational, and yet it just felt so good to yell at this old man for all of his problems.
Sighing, Sarutobi put down his pipe and stared directly into the young man's eyes. "I understand that Naruto, but your father could not willingly ask another parent to sacrifice their child when he was not willing to do so himself. Besides, he knew only a Namikaze would be able to handle this burden and endure with a smile." Smiling at the boy, the Hokage gave him a reassuring nod, "He did it to save this village, the home that he loved with all of his heart, the one that he had hoped to share with you. He did it so that you would live a happy and prosperous life Naruto-kun." However, he did not expect his young charges reaction.
"Thank you, Oji-san, I needed that, but I still do not fully love my father, it will take some time." Smiling Naruto nodded to the Hokage, signifying he now understood his father, "Now, let's see about this scroll shall we?" Smiling even wider, Naruto began opening the scroll. A quick unlocking and blood seal later, Naruto began to read its contents.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Dear Naruto,
You will never know how much we will love and miss you, but know that we did what we did to protect you and the entire village of Konoha. We understand that you have probably not have the best of lives and you have not been loved very much, but know that you are a true hero; at least in our eyes.
Now you may wonder about the suppression seal we have placed on you, but know that it is for your own protection. If you had looked like you currently are when you where younger, you would have been discovered as our son, and all our enemies would be after you. So it was safe to have you like a anonymous, orphaned, Minato look-alike.
Further more if you have not learned all of our jutsu already, we have left all of our scrolls within the seal at the end of the letter. (Get off your lazy ass and learn them already!… ow, Kushina that hurts) Learn them and use them well. You will never know how proud of you we are, but now is not the time, you must go and seek out your Uncle to teach you about your bloodline, as if it is left unchecked and not properly trained , it could cause serious problems. So simply ask the Hokage to take some leave and seek out Nagato in Ame.
Now, we must leave and prepare for the inevitable, but always remember who you are and take no shit from the villagers, they are too ignorant to see you as just a normal child. It is your choice, the path you take, no matter what we back you in every decision you make. Make us proud and live up to the title of the Rokudou Sennin.
Your loving Parents,
Namikaze Minato & Kushina
(P.S. If you ever meet a perverted old man with long, spiky white hair, tell him your student says hello you old Ero-Sennin!)

As tears freely flowed from his eyes as he continued to read his parent's letter, Naruto's face became contorted into a new look of determination, one that shouted that he would never give up as long as he lived. Staring straight into the eyes of the Hokage, Naruto spoke in his new eerily calm voice, "Oji-san, I must request that you let me travel to Ame, to visit my Uncle." startled by this sudden change of pace, Sarutobi looked inquisitively at his young charge, "Why do you wish to visit your Uncle? I do not think it will be possible at the moment." Not wavering in the least, Naruto continued to stare, " It is because I must, my parents wanted me to."
Sighing, Sarutobi stood up from his chair and made his way to the window, "Very well Naruto, you may go, but you are to be accompanied by my student, Jiraiya, one of the sannin until you get to the village." Staring outinto space, Sarutobi watched the hot springs watching as his old student was conveniently pummeled into the Hokage's office. "ah, Jiraiya, how convenient, I was just about to send for you." the old Hokage chuckled out as he stared at his beaten student.
Staring at his old sensei, Jiraiya was confused, why was he needed. Getting up, Jiraiya stared at his sensei, "Why do you need me for sensei? I need to my 'research.!" he whined like a little child. Laughing at his students antics, Sarutobi simply replied, " You see, I need you to escort young Naruto here," Sarutobi paused, indicating Naruto, who waved a little too innocently, "to Ame, where his Uncle lives, as he has awakened his Kekkei Genkai." At this, Jiraiya's eyes widened just a little bit.
Looking to the young boy in the chair next to him, Jiraiya nearly fell down as he gasped. "Wow, I never thought he would activate it this young. But, alright I'll escort him to Ame where he will train with his Uncle. How long will he stay, Sensei?" Jiraiya was kind of curios about the kid now, he seemed to have a lot of potential.
"I will let Naruto stay will Nagato for the next eight years. But, I want you home for the genin exams, alright Naruto?" Sighing, Naruto nodded his head in defeat, if he had it his way he would just stay in Ame with his uncle. "Alright, Oji-san, I'll come back before the exams. I just hope the academy won't miss me, even though I've only been there a month," pausing, Naruto frowned, "Oji-san can you tell Sasuke and Hinata that I had to leave and I will come back for them, ok?"
Smiling, Sarutobi nodded to the boy, "Alright Naruto, I will. But only if you send regular updates to me via messenger bird, ok?" Looking at the Hokage with a smile upon his face he nodded his head, "Sure thing Oji-san, can do. I'll send one every two months!"
Laughing, Sarutobi smiled down at the redhead, "Very well, I will miss you Naruto, take care." walking around his desk, Sarutobi scooped naruto up in a bone crushing bear hug. "I'll miss you too, Oji-san. I also have another request of you, however. I want you to change all my records, as I'm going to go by Kazama Naruto from now on." Sighing, Sarutobi nodded gravely, "Very well, Naruto-kun, I will, as I know you know the risks with this change. Now get going, and become strong." Turning to Jiraiya, he became deadly serious, "Watch out for him Jiraiya, and I mean it. No, research stops or I'll confine you to the village for the rest of your days."
Nodding, Jiraiya was crying at his predicament, "Very well, sensei, I will." Grabbing Naruto by the hand, Jiraiya disappeared in a puff of smoke, heading to the young boy's apartment. It didn't take that long to get there and pack up all of his measly possessions that he had in his small home, so they were gone in a flash.
Twenty minutes later the two travelers left out of the eastern-most gate of Konoha. Taking one last look at village, the two set out on a journey for the village hidden in the rain, for one a eight year long adventure was about to begin. Leaping up into the trees, the two headed out for what appeared to be a long time.

After three days of non-stop travel, the village of Amegakure, was in their sights. It was not the most beautiful of sights, it was still home in Naruto's eyes. Approaching the gate, Jiraiya turned to Naruto and stared into his eyes, "Well, gaki, this is where I get off, I'll see you back in the village in eight years. And if you impress me enough I'll even let you be my apprentice." Laughing to himself, he barely noticed Naruto moving on, "Yeah right, you old Ero-Sennin, see you in eight. Bye!"
Walking through the gates of Amegakure, Naruto walked down the street into the town square.
Looking around for a bit, Naruto eventually found his way to the administration offices of the village. Heading inside the building, Naruto made his way to the Leader's office, stopping at the receptionist's desk to see if the man was busy.
After five minutes of waiting, Naruto was allowed to enter into the office for his business. Walking in on the man, who had his back to him, Naruto stood before the leader's desk, " I'm sorry for disturbing you Leader-sama, but I am new to Ame and I was hoping that you would know a man by the name of Kazama Nagato." Swiveling around in his chair, the leader stared wide eyed at the boy, "How do you know that name boy, I have not used that name in many years." Smiling at the man, who was revealed at his Uncle, Naruto responded with a chuckle, "Well, that is a long story, but the short version is that my name is Namikaze-Kazama Naruto, the son of Namikaze Minato and Kazama Kushina, your twin sister."
Staring at the boy with an inquisitive eye, Nagato sneered at him, "You are not him, my nephew died in the kyubi attack five years ago, now be gone from my sight, liar." With that he turned around, away from Naruto, "Ok, if you think that, then how do you explain my eyes." Catching him by surprise, Nagato swiveled around in his seat so fast it was disturbing, "What do you mean, boy!" he nearly snarled at Naruto, "Just that, Uncle, how do you explain my Rin'negan." Staring at the boy's eyes, Nagato realized he was lied to. Standing up, Nagato sweeped the boy up into a bear hug. "I can't believe it's really you! I thought that you had died with your mother!," placing the boy down he sighed in relief, "But, what are you doing here, now of all times?"
"It is because my mother wished me to come and see you when I awakened my Kekkei Genkai," Lifting the scroll he had obtained from Sarutobi, he smiled, "It is all explained in my parent's scroll. So I am yours to train for the next few years."
At this, Nagato smiled mischievously, thinking of all the things he could expose his nephew to. Oh boy was he going to have fun in the next eight years, "Very well then, let the tortu..I mean, training begin." Nagato stated, cackling maniacally in the background. The next eight years were going to be hell for our young fox boy.

A/N: I am going to skip over these eight years, but there will be multiple flashbacks to his training through out the story. So next time… Naruto's Return!
