Summary: The Hokage asks Anko to look after Naruto after he almost gets killed by Itachi. Anko agrees but things don't go the way the Hokage thinks it should. What he didn't plan on was Anko being so protective of Naruto, even fighting ninja's from Konoha for how they treat him. Was this a good idea to have Anko watch Naruto or will Naruto end up just like Anko?
The legend of Naruto Uzumaki
Chapter 7
Kushina, Haku, Kurenai, Anko, and Naruto sat in the clearing the next day while Kyuubi paced in front of them, "Ok I'm going to explain more about hanyou's and demon's so you dont get in this situation again." she said.
"We are ready to listen when your ready to talk." Naruto said.
Kyuubi paced in front of them for awhile with no signs of starting, "Kyuubi whats wrong, I thought you was going explain demon's and hanyou's to us?" Kushina asked.
Kyuubi looked at her, "I never had to actually explain it before, I don't know where to begin." she said.
"Why not start by telling us why Haku came to me?" Kushina asked.
Kyuubi looked at Haku, who still was terrified of her, "Ok, hanyou's although strong are mainly peaceful, they balance demon's and protect human's from them, I'm guessing Haku was protecting this place when we arrived." she started.
"If that's true why did she let Gato take over." Naruto asked.
"Gato not demon or hanyou." Haku said.
"Hanyou's will protect human's from demon's and other hanyou's, but not human's." Kyuubi said.
"Why, whats the point if a human still can do this to a town?" Naruto asked.
"Look around, if Haku fights Gato she would have to fight his entire army, she may be strong, but she is only a 3 tailed hanyou, in other words she is a chuunin in human terms, Kushina already ran into one jounin, Haku can't possibly hope to defeat a jounin plus all the samurai's and Gato, not to mention he may have other jounin's in this town." Kyuubi said.
"Me must get stronger to protect town." Haku said.
Kyuubi walked around, "So why did she devote herself to me?" Kushina asked.
"She feels safe around you, like Haku said her demon father killed her hanyou mother, probably when she was very young, you give her that sense of motherly protection." Kyuubi told her.
"So if a hanyou feels safe around another hanyou they will devote themselves to that hanyou?" Anko asked.
"Not necessarily, Haku is a special case, its not often that a demon will kill their mate, it is a sign of losing control to keep your mate satisfied, I told you that if you can give a hanyou or demon sexual satisfaction they will become your mate right?" Kyuubi asked.
"Yes." Kurenai answered.
"Well in rare cases you can become a mate of a hanyou or demon even without satisfying that desire, one example of that is if the demon or hanyou becomes pregnant." Kyuubi said.
"Wait I thought a hanyou can't become pregnant unless she wasn't to." Kushina asked.
"That is only for those who have the ability to use their chakra to block the process of having their eggs fertilized, usually only 6 and 7 tail's can do it." Kyuubi said. Kyuubi then sat down in front of them, "Back when hanyou's first started to be born the demon's and human's who gave birth to them made a set of laws, these laws stated that no hanyou can kill a human unless they show an immediate threat to said hanyou or their family, a hanyou must have a demon master, a hanyou can only mate with a demon unless given permission by their demon master to mate with a human." she told them.
"Basically hanyou's was slaves?" Kushina asked.
"Yes." Kyuubi said.
"Did you have a say in these laws?" Naruto asked.
"No, I was only a 1 tailed demon at the time, over the last ten thousand years hanyou's grew as a race at an extremely fast rate. Within 5 thousand years there was enough hanyou's to rise up and fight for their freedom from the demon's, but because of their relationship with human's, hanyou's was was still greatly out numbered. That's when a change in power occurred, hanyou's proved to have the abilities to combine their parents elements into new elements, those elements became what you know as, Hyouton, Mokuton, Youton, Fuuton, Kouton, Jinton(swift), Meiton, and Shouton. Unlike the regular elements, these combined elements had no known weakness and the fight for their freedom took a turn in history that would be known as the rise of the elemental clans." Kyuubi said.
"So Haku is part of the clan that changed history?" Naruto asked.
"Yes, the war lasted 4 thousand years and changed the way demon's and human's looked at hanyou's, they feared how strong they could get. For the next thousand years hanyou's developed an ability to completely hide their tails and ears making them look more human like, this ability was developed because after they war ended neither demon's or human's wanted to view hanyou's as an equal and started to hunt them down, the number of hanyou's dropped so much that they was forced into hiding. Every demon knows that at some point the hanyou's will start to punch back and if they do it wont end pretty. Now over the last one hundred years human's and demon's have stopped hunting them, but hanyou's never forgot how they was treated, I'm guessing when Haku's father found out she was a hanyou he killed her, which would explain the way Haku acts." Kyuubi said.
"So basically hanyou's have learned to be cautious when a demon is around?" Kushina asked.
"Yes, and I know that I told you that 7 tails is equal to a kage, but its not so cut and dry a 7 tailed hanyou can also defeat a 8 tailed demon and possible 2 kage's if they trained right, to be more accurate a 5 tailed hanyou could match a kage because of the chakra, speed, and awareness boost alone, add in a hanyou's natural ability to combine elements and they will have the jutsu's to match a kage." Kyuubi said.
"So really, a 7 tailed hanyou is the second strongest person on the planet behind a 9 tailed demon, while a hanyou without any tails can defeat a genin with ease?" Anko asked.
"In theory yes." Kyuubi said.
"This is confusing." Naruto said.
"You will understand as you get use to your hanyou powers." Kyuubi said.
"So I'm stuck with Haku?" Kushina asked.
"More or less, its actually not a bad thing, and its easier to let her think of you as her protector then try and convince her that she don't need protection, besides hanyou's are a race born to fight and protect, that's all they know so in Haku's eyes since you out rank her she sees you as her commander and she is your general." Kyuubi said.
"My general?" Kushina asked.
"Yes, from birth hanyou's are taught to fight and protect themselves, its something that was forced on them by demon's and human's, her last commander was killed and she needs a new one, she picked you because you fit the requirements: female, around the age of her mother, your a 7 tailed hanyou, and your a great fighter." Kyuubi said.
"Me only knows how to fight, me had to fight her entire life, me needs a commander." she said while forming water out of the air.
"See you give her the protection and security she requires and she will be your general, or apprentice if you prefer, cause to demon's and hanyou's they mean the same." Kyuubi said.
"Having a full time apprentice would be nice." Kushina said.
"See now everyone is happy." Kyuubi said.
"I though Hina and Hanabi was your apprentices" Naruto said.
"Who said I can't have more than 1 apprentice?" Kushina asked.
"No one I guess." Naruto said.
"Exactly, now we have work to do, Haku do you know where to find Gato?" Kushina asked.
"Yes, follow me to him." Haku said as she stood up and took off at full speed.
"Looks like you got a rare speed based hanyou," Kyuubi said, "I'm so jealous, I never had one." she added.
Haku zoomed in and out of the trees until she came to a stop by the ocean, "Gato." she said pointing to a small island a few miles off shore.
Kushina looked at it, "Haku have you been there?" she asked.
"Yes me has." she answered.
"Can you tell me what it looks like up close?" Kushina asked.
"Me show you." Haku said, Hyouton: mirrors she said after making the needed hand signs. She adjusted the mirrors until the picture was clear, "Look at Haku's mirror." she said pointing to the one in front of her.
"That's a really useful bloodline." Anko commented.
They looked at a clear picture of the building Gato lived in. It was swarmed with samurai's and even had a few jounin's, all who looked like they wanted to kill the other. After looking and finding the entrances, Kushina started to think, "We need a distraction." she said.
"Will those boats work?" Anko asked.
"Yea, think you can make them go bang?" Kushina asked.
Anko smiled, "I live to make things go bang, one giant bang coming up." she said as she ran across the water.
"Haku when the samurai's start can you work with Naruto to keep them busy while we take care of the jounin's?" Kushina asked.
"Me work with him." Haku said with a hint of anger in her voice.
"Good, Kurenai come with me." Kushina said.
"Oh what about me?" Kyuubi asked in a kid voice while waving her arms and hopping from one foot to the other.
Kushina rolled her eyes at the demon's sarcasm, "Like you need to be told to kill the jounin's in there." she said.
"I don't, but since you so nicely left me out that I needed to remind you that I was here." Kyuubi said.
Haku took off across the water as the boats blew up. Samurai's came running out, Hyouton: million stinging needles of death she said after going through 50 hand signs.
Naruto stopped and watched as the needles killed off the samurai's as they ran out, "Man she is deadly." he said to himself. Anko stood back laughing as the samurai's ran to their death.

Kushina ran into the back entrance she pulled out her katana and attacked the first jounin she saw. The shinobi turned and blocked her strike, "So we meet again." he said.
"Zabuza, your not getting away from me this time." Kushina said.
"Your never told me how I sleep." Zabuza said as he ducked under her katana.
"I know how your going to be sleeping, long, dead, and headless." Kushina said as she did a sweep kick at him.
Zabuza swung his clever at her which barely missed as she jumped over it and out onto the ocean. Zabuza followed her, "Your in my element now." he said, hidden mist Zabuza said creating a mist around the entire area.
Kushina stood back and waited. She let her newly developed instincts take over as her hearing and sense of smell kicked in. Absentmindedly she added chakra to her tails and all 7 made themselves know. She moved her katana in time to block his clever, "Your only prolonging your death." she said.
"Your to cocky for your own good." Zabuza said. As he barely missing cutting off her arm as she jumped to the side.
The smell of blood filled the air as Kushina held her arm with her free hand. Kushina stood still as she concentrated on the smell of her blood on Zabuza's weapon. She ducked and slashed upward across his body as he came in for his next strike. Her ears twitched as he jumped back and moved around the water. Knowing that she missed she cleared her mind of all frustration she was feeling with this current fight and focused solely on her opponent. Kushina opened her eyes and saw a flare of sun hitting off a mirror, she looked around and noticed the small flare was making an elaborate shadow and every time Zabuza chakra signature passed one it shifted very slightly until every mirror was facing a certain direction. Confused at was Haku was doing she let the hanyou continue her work uninterrupted.
Hyouton: reflection of sun Haku's voice was heard throughout the fog.
"What the hell." Zabuza was heard soon after as his skin heated up.
"Good job Haku." Kushina said.
The fog started to go away and everyone saw Zabuza unable to move as he was slowly being cooked by the sun rays. As the sun was able to shine down more the jutsu increased. As Haku ended her jutsu Zabuza slowly fell into the water. Anko looked at him then Haku, "This girl is one kick ass kunoichi." she said.
"I'm just happy she is on our side." Kurenai said.
"So all that is left is to find Gato right?" Kyuubi asked.
"Yea, I guess we should check the island." Kushina said. They started walking back to the island when Kushina looked back, "Haku whats wrong?" she asked.
Haku looked at Kushina then back at the water and pointed, "Me keep?" she asked.
Kushina looked at the clever that was making its way into the water, "Sure, you killed him." she said. Haku picked it up and ran up to Kushina. She held the clever in both hands close to her body away from Naruto as he looked at it.
(break)
The group walked around the island but no one besides them was on it, "I wonder where Gato is?" Naruto asked.
Kyuubi sighed, "This entire thing was a trap." she said.
"Trap, whoever set this up isn't very good at it." Anko said.
"It depends on what side your on, whoever set it up planned on us killing all the shinobi's who was on this island." Kyuubi said.
"What makes you think that?" Naruto asked.
"What easier way to get out of paying someone then to have them killed, and if your lucky the people who killed those you paid off will die in the process." Kyuubi said.
"So now the question is where to find Gato." Kushina said.
"Me help?" Haku asked.
"Yes Haku you can help us look for Gato." Kushina said.
"Me look over there." she pointed towards the entrance that led to the blown up boats. Her eyes darted across the landscape looking for any clues on where Gato was, she walked out of the broken gate and started to look for clues.

Tsunami locked her door and pushed her table in front of it, "Come on Inari, that wont hold them." she said in a panic.
"Mom whats going on, why are they here?" Inari asked.
"I don't know, but we have to run." Tsunami said.
"The window." Tazuna said.
They heard the door break, "Hurry Inari, get through." Tsunami said lifting him up.
"Mom come on." Inari said as he got through.
"Stop her." Gato said.
"Inari run." Tsunami said closing the window.
"Should we go after the boy?" one of the samurai's asked.
"No he is no threat to us." Gato said.
"What should we do with them?" a samurai asked.
"Bring them, burn the house." Gato said.
(break)
Haku looked in the sky and saw black smoke. She looked at it then ran back to Kushina, "Me find clue." she said while pulling on her sleeve.
"Really where?" Kushina asked.
Haku pointed, "Fire." she said.
"Lets go check it out." Kushina said.
They ran across the ocean and into the forest. When they came out they saw a kid crying, "Inari?" Naruto asked.
"Naruto you have to save my mom, Gato took her." he said as he looked at them.
"Don't worry we will save her." Naruto said.
"Your not saving anyone." they heard.
Turning they saw Gato's samurai holding Tsunami and Tazuna, "Let them go." Kushina said.
"No you see I figured they are worth a lot more to you alive then to me dead, so if you want them to stay alive you will leave Wave and never come back." Gato said.
"How bout you let them go and we wont kill you?" Naruto asked.
"No." Tsunami yelled.
"Huh, no what?" Naruto asked confused.
"You promised to protect my son, so protect him, get him out of here, I don't care what happens to me as long as he is safe." Tsunami said.
"Tsunami." Naruto said.
"Just go, all of you!" Tsunami yelled.
"Come on." Kushina said as she grabbed Naruto's shoulder.
"Come on Inari we will keep you safe." Kyuubi said as she easily picked him up.
"What are you waiting for, if you don't leave I will have her killed." Gato said to Haku.
The others turned around, "Haku?" Kushina called in question.
Haku stared at Tsunami and the samurai that held her hostage. She stood unmoving as she remembered her mother in the same situation with her father. Kushina walked up to her and put a hand on her shoulder, "Haku come on we can save her later, now we need to make sure that they wont kill her." she said.
"Me not leaving." Haku said.
"Haku listen, I know its hard to do, but we need to think about everyone's safety right now, if we attack then Inari will be hurt." Kushina said.
"Me not letting him lose mother like me did." Haku said.
"Haku stop talking like this, no one will lose their mother." Kushina said.
"Me better hostage." she said.
"Haku I will not allow you to get yourself captured for nothing." Kushina said.
"Me must prove I can be your general, me must prove to me self that me can be brave, me can help find hideout." Haku said as she stepped forward.
"Haku don't." Kushina said.
"What are you talking about, you should be leaving?" Gato asked.
"Me better hostage, let lady go and take me." Haku said.
Gato looked at her then at Tsunami, "Switch them." he said.
A samurai quickly grabbed Haku and the other let Tsunami go, "Now don't try and be a hero or she will die." Gato said.
"What just happened?" Naruto asked once Gato and his men was gone.
Kushina looked in the direction they went, "She didn't want Inari to lose his mother like she did." she said.

Haku was thrown into an old dirty cage that had 10 other women in it. She picked herself up and brushed the dirt off her then immediately covered her nose as she was assaulted by the smell of the women. She looked around while still covering her nose, "Child how old are you?" one of the women asked.
Haku looked at her, "Me 14." she said.
"Your young, to young to be here." she said.
"Don't worry about the smell you get use to it." another lady said.
Haku walked up to the gate and spotted a bucket of water, she focused on the water with her eyes closed. She opened them and the water flew from the bucket and drenched all 10 of them, "What was that for!" they yelled.
"You stink, me can't concentrate with smell." Haku replied.
"Concentrate on what that require us to be wet." a lady yelled.
"Please don't yell at me, me only trying to help." Haku asked.
"Ami calm down, she might be our only way out." another lady said.
"She better." Ami said as she moved her hair out of her face.
Haku looked around the room again, "What are you looking for?" Ami asked.
"Me need me weapon." Haku said pointing to it.
"Why? Not like it can break these gates." Ami asked.
"Me win it in me first kill as general, me can't leave without it." Haku said.
"Well its out there your in here how do you plan on getting it?" Ami asked.
"Me have way." Haku said as she walked over closer to it and tried to reach out for it but cane up short. She looked back at the women, "Don't scream." she said.
"Scream at what?" Ami asked for them all.
Haku concentrated and her tails appeared. One immediately shot through the gate and grabbed the clever. The ladies was looking to shocked to yell at the moment, "Stay with Haku, me lead you to safety." she said as she broke the gate on the other side of the cage and stepped out, "Hurry, me sense enemy coming." she said.
The ladies snapped out of their shock and ran out the cage. She led them down a hall away from the incoming samurai's. They turned a corner and stopped as a group of samurai's was waiting for them. Haku looked behind her and saw another group of samurai's coming. Haku held her clever in both hands getting ready, "How cute, your trying to be a hero." one of them said.
"Why not put the weapon down and we wont hurt you to much?" another samurai asked.
"Me not scared! Me protect women." Haku said.
"Fine then die." a samurai said as they all charged at them.
Haku released her chakra letting her tails appear again, Hyouton: thousand death of needles she called out as needles flew up from the water that was still on the women bodies at the samurai's. The samurai's dropped dead as the needles cut through them all, "Come on, me see exit." Haku said and took off again.

Gato was standing outside of his mansion in the middle of Wave as he counted the money he had, "Silly ninja's, they are to confident in their chakra and ruled by money." he said.
"Sir, would you like me to bring you the new addition to our collection of women?" a samurai asked.
"No, I'm not ready for her yet, let me finish counting my money." Gato said.
The door burst open getting the attention of all the samurai's and Gato. Haku stood their with her tails waving behind her and running to catch up to her was the other 10 women. Haku looked at them all with hate, "Me kill you." she threatened.
"She has tails." one samurai yelled.
"Kill her." Gato yelled in fear.
Hyouton: ice mirror Haku said. A mirror appeared in front of them, "Haku is that you? Are you hurt?" Kushina asked in surprise.
"Me not hurt, can me kill Gato?" she asked.
"Yes, can you show us where you are?" Kushina asked.
"Me put mirror in sky." Haku said as a giant mirror formed in the sky.
"Wow I can see that from here, we will be there soon." Kushina said.
"Me kill you all now." Haku said.
The samurai's all ran at her. She vanished from their sight with pure speed and used her clever to cut them all down. As she finished Kushina arrived, Where Gato go?" Haku asked as she looked around for him.
Gato got passed the gate without any of them noticing him sneaking away. He was about to run for his horse when he was stopped by something going through his body. He looked at the weapon then at who did it and was surprised by who he saw, "You." he said.
Everyone looked over at them, "That's for burning down my house," she then pushed it further into him, "that's for what you did to Wave." Tsunami said as she held the samurai sword so tight that her knuckles was turning white. She then struggled to pull it out as he fell. She then proceeded to use the sword to hack at his already dead body.
Kurenai walked up to her and grabbed the handle of the sword, "He is dead, you got your revenge on him." she said to her. Tsunami then started ti cry as she realized what she did, "Don't cry he deserved what he got." Kurenai said while patting her back for comfort.
"Me save them." Haku said pointing to the ladies.
"Yes you did Haku." Kushina said.
"How do you have a tail?" Ami asked.
"Me a hanyou." Haku said.
"A what?" Ami asked.
"Me have demon father, hanyou mother, me hanyou." Haku said.
(break)
Haku looked up from the where she was sitting looking out at the ocean as Naruto walked up to her, "Hey Haku can I ask you something?" he asked.
"Me not want to talk to you, me don't like you." Haku said in anger.
"What why not I never did anything to you?" Naruto asked in confusion.
"Me no trust you." Haku said.
"What did I do?" Naruto asked.
"You have demon lover, me no want to talk to you or demon." Haku said as her anger showed with her tails appearing.
"Please Haku, I just want to talk, I think we got off on the wrong foot." Naruto said trying to calm her down.
"Me don't want to talk to you, me leaving you don't follow." Haku said as she glared at him angrily and took off at speeds that far exceeded his own. Naruto looked at her retreating body in confusion.
"Don't think to much about it right now, its understandable that she is like that towards demons." Kyuubi said.
"But why me? I never did anything to her, and where did you come from?" Naruto asked.
"I can appear anywhere you are because of the small link we share through the seal, and she is like that because of said seal, we are still connected no matter how much we wish not to be." Kyuubi said.
"Why did she say you was my lover?" Naruto asked.
"She doesn't understand how seals work or that a demon can be sealed, as far as she knows we are lovers and lets let her think that until she starts to trust us more." Kyuubi said.
"But she likes Kushi-chan, Anko-chan, and Kure-chan." Naruto said.
"Yes, its a female thing." Kyuubi said.
(break)
Kushina looked at everyone, "So we have to take Tsunami, Tazuna, Inari, and Dai to Whirlpool before we continue to look for allies." she said.
"Don't worry, I'll take them back, why don't you all head towards the next destination?" Kyuubi suggested.
"You sure?" Kushina asked.
"Yea, I can use the connection with Naruto to catch up." Kyuubi said.
"Ok, lets head to Kiri." Kushina said.
