Reviews:
To Naruto-kun257:
Thank you for your wonderful comments! I hope you enjoy this chapter like you did the last! I also agree with the Itachi being Naruto's brother instead. I'm not sure about neglect because of the prophecy but we'll get their when it comes to that. Yes he will still be an Uzumaki when he goes back to the leaf and no way is he wearing that stupid ass mask! However he won't really be trying to show off either. And I hope your exam(s) have or is going well!
To SPark681: Well this chapter pretty much explains your un-answered questions. I do hope you enjoy!
To UnsanMusho: Thanks so much for being so supportive!
To the Guest who said:
"Tolerate but never forgive? Nah he oughta f*** gut them" -Totally agree and he will be like that in the beginning as you will see soon but remember more of the prophecy will be told to him and he will be getting his harem plus there is that glow eyed mysterious male that will be showing himself soon.
To bcsclaymore: Well you won't be seeing his reaction now in this chapter so hang in there and wait for flashbacks! *-*
To Charcoal wolf: Thank you that means a lot to me!
To Animaman: Yes I so know what you talking about with the harem but I'm definitely not making it more then 6! Also the prophecy isn't what destroyed their family, the prophecy only came out after he ran away because Jiraiya didn't want to destroy the family because in my story he was always on Naruto's side and didn't like the way the family treated him.
To ncpfan: That's a nice idea you have there.
To Gold Testament: Well we will see exactly how that situation had gone in the chapter after this one!
To DragonPony022: Thank you so much! I'm glad you like this story!

Chapter 10: Legacy
Normal POV.
Naruto stared at the whirlpool before him. The dark cave was illuminated by the glow the water gave off. "The pool" as Akari called it looked more like a medium sized lake, the water glowed a bright light blue color that looked like silver was mixed in with the blue. In the middle of the lake there was a large whirlpool that swirled around lazily in a hypnotic way.
"Well let's taste this water, since it looks so clear and clean!" Kurosuke said with a very childish grin as he dipped his hands in the water. However just as his hands were submerged in the glowing water the whirlpool started spinning very fast and furiously. The water current was so strong that Kurosuke got a shock and fell in when the current pulled on his hands. Naruto and Akari who was standing behind the dark headed boy both tried to catch him but it was too late and they both were pulled in along with their dark headed companion.
The three screamed and desperately held onto each other any way they could. They were pulled closer and closer towards the middle of the whirlpool and couldn't even use chakra to get out of the water. The lazy swirling of the whirlpool earlier was long forgotten due to the furious waters that were currently sweeping the three of them away. They thought for sure they were going to die. Well they were about to find out what their fate was because they had reached the centre of the whirlpool and were being sucked down...
Naruto's POV.
I opened my eyes to see I was in some other cave. 'What's going on? Where are we?' Those were my thoughts as I woke my friends up. The last thing I remember is that whirlpool that we went down and then everything went black and now here we are. I thought of many different ways we could of ended up here and the answer I keep getting is almost hard to believe however if it wasn't because I read the Uzumaki history then I wouldn't believe it myself.
"Naruto-kun? Where are we?" Asked Akari. She was looking around the place curiously, while Kurosuke just sat on the ground scratching his head looking around confused. I decided to think about how I could possibly tell them that I think the whirlpool was some kind of portal to a pocket dimension thing either just for Uzumaki's or prisoners of some kind?
"Well...I think we in another cave somewhere else that is somehow connected to that other cave with the whirlpool, but I'm not really sure if it's only for Uzumaki's because Kurosuke is here so I think we should watch out just incase while we trying to find away out of this place." I told Akari and Kurosuke this and they looked like they kind of understood what I was trying to say but I honestly couldn't be too sure when it comes to those two.
We walked around looking if we could find a way out but that's not what we ended up finding. What we came across was something both confusing and amazing. It was something we only seen in the history books of Uzu that we came across. Something that we never seen pictures of but did read the details and description of and in my case heard about from Mito.
"Kami-sama! Isn't that the weapons that Mito-sama told you about!? The same ones in the history of Uzu? But there's only three of them, where are the others? Yo Shrimp? Are you even listening!? Wait don't go closer there might be a trap here...HEY! Naruto wait man wait!" Kurosuke shouted at me but I was already there touching the weapons my ancestors left for me.
The first one I lifted slightly up from the stone alter. It was heavy but not as heavy as it looked, the material of the handle warmed under my skin and I could hear a humming sound from the weapon I held. The material was black with a red Uzumaki clan symbol on the handle and the cover of the katana was the same color as the grip of the blade with the same red whirlpool symbol on it. On the right side of the blade I picked up there was a twin blade for the one I held, they looked identical and both of them had two pitch black gems dangling from the head of each grip. 'Beautiful...' That was all that came to mind as I stood at the stone alter.
Kurosuke's POV.
I walked up towards that idiot and grabbed his shoulder. I glanced at the weapons on the alter but I resisted the urge to also touch them. They were really nice and the one pair of swords in the navy blue covers with white designs really called out to me but I was worried whether this was a trap or not. I mean I have been caught in a few traps before because of those people that was after my family before. I don't want anything to happen to these two that I have just come to think of as my new family.
"Naruto you baka! Didn't I say that might be a trap!? Why didn't you listen? I know that this might be what you were looking for along with that purple stone thing but still. This could be a trap set up for anyone who comes through that whirlpool thing that sucked us up in here!" I yelled at the idiot in front of me and he looked kind of shocked and dropped the sword he was holding back onto the alter. Akari who stood behind us a bit further away from the alter looked between us with worry.
"Ah...Kurosuke sorry. I was just so drawn to this swords, I didn't mean to ignore your warning. I mean what are the chances we were looking for the Uzumaki heritage and then Akari stumbles across the cave with the whirlpool and then you fell in and we all got pulled here..." Naruto said looking slightly bashful. I shook my head at his idiocy sometimes, I opened my mouth to say something but there was suddenly a pressure pressing down on all three of us.
"Who dares to enter this cave under my protection! There are two Uzumaki's here! Are you traitors!? Who is this other person here? Why are you here!? Answer me now!" A thunderous female voice echoed all around us and this beautiful woman with red hair appeared before us wearing long white robes with the symbol of fire on it.
"Aunt Mito! It's me Naruto Uzumaki and my friends Akari Uzumaki and Kurosuke Katsuno. I came to Uzu on the orders from you aunty Mito. Part of your soul appeared in Konoha and saved me from death and made me your heir. You also said if I chose for myself, when my memories of you were sealed, to go to Uzu then I'll get my memories of you back and then I will have to find the Uzumaki legacy." Naruto told the woman in front of us. I looked at him in awe, Naruto had forced himself to stand up even under the pressure that was pressing down on us.
"You are a brave one young man! If it is as you say it is I wish to see some proof of what you say. You should have the proof I need in order for me to allow you to leave with three of eight weapon sets from our ancestors. Come to me young man and let me see your memories of this other me you speak of." Mito-sama ordered. Naruto walked towards her without fear and allowed her to lay her hands on his head to see his memories.
Not even a few minutes went past when Mito-sama pulled her hands away with her mouth in a frown. The pressure lifted off of us and Mito-sama pulled Naruto into her arms and hugged him. I stood up from the ground and glanced towards Akari who had also been rooted in the same spot that she was in and just watched.
Normal POV.
"I'm glad you came to look for your legacy Naruto. I'm really happy that you have found yourself companions as well. You can happily take the weapons. However we only have three out of the eight sets that used to be here. As you can see the twin katanas, the twin said and the scythe is the only ones here. The bow staff and the others used to have masters before until they died and their weapons stolen or lost." Mito told Naruto after she pulled away from the hug.
"Thank you aunty, but how will we find the others? I don't want the other weapons to be taken by the wrong people. I mean I wish to give the weapons to the right people who will do the right thing with them." Naruto asked the elder Uzumaki. Mito smiled at him in return and nodded her head in understanding.
" Yes Naruto, I know. You can give the weapons to your friends but beware of who you give them to. The only way to unlock their power is the will to protect and survive in a life or death situation. You and who ever you give the weapons to can bond with them by blood and then the weapon of choice will be able to be called back to the owner if it is out of reach. The weapons can also sense each other. You can use the strength of the glow to find the others. Naruto, there is something else I should warn you about especially with the prophecy. Only you can stop the evil if you push aside your hatred for your family." Mito told him with a serious face and he nodded back with an equally serious face.
"I know, but I can't forgive nor can I forget about what they have put me through. Aunty Mito you know for yourself, you seen by memories. It's too much for me to forgive. That's the one thing you can't force me to do. Uzumaki legacy be damned!" Naruto said with conviction. His face looked so closed off and impassive that you wouldn't even think of him as a soft hearted person, especially his eyes which had started glowing.
"That's understandable Naruto. You don't have to forgive or forget what they made you go through but please try and put it aside. Another thing is that I wish to train you. If the three of you train by yourselves you will progress but not as quickly as you want to or need to. However the part of my soul that is here will help train you but you will have to take that small rock and take it out of the whirlpool with you. That is all I can say for now. Now here is where you will find that rock and how to get out of this whirlpool." Mito said then went on to giving them directions and explanations on how and where to find this small sided glowing purple rock. Three hours later the trio walked out the cave that they originally went into, carrying their weapons of choice. Naruto had the twin Katanas, Kurosuke had the twin sais and Akari had the scythe, each of them chose their own weapon and made sure to bond with said weapons just like how Mito told them. They quickly went back to where they were staying to rest for the night since it was already very late after all they did spend a lot of time in the cave with Mito while she explained some things to them.
Else where...
A bow staff glowed in the darkness that wrapped around it, engulfing it with a white aura that pulsed every two minutes...
