Chapter 3: New Arrivals
Third Training Ground
Sasuke approached the bridge leading to Training Ground 3 a little before 7 am to await his team's new sensei. Sakura was yawning heavily with unkempt hair not being able to straighten it and her stomach growled badly since she chose not to eat breakfast. Sasuke was a bit better since he was used to getting up early.
"Where's Naruto?" Sakura asked. "That baka hasn't arrived yet and sensei could arrive at any moment."
Sasuke shrugged the question off, as he already knew and set out to lay some traps. When he got back to the stumps an hour later, Naruto suddenly flickered in front of a stump. "Naruto-baka, you're late." Sakura shouted before lightly blushing taking notice of Naruto's new attire showing his toned abs and muscles through his mesh armor.
He had a black hitai-ate on his forehead and facemask. He wore long-sleeved red trim double-layered mesh armor with white bandages around his wrists with Summoning: Lightning Flash Blade Creation written in invisible ink underneath an open double-layered mesh armor black track jacket with red collar and wrists with large Uzumaki crest embroidered on the back. He also was wearing black fingerless shinobi gloves with Uzumaki crest engraved metal plates, black ANBU shinobi pants secured by white bandages around his shin, black mid shinobi sandals (His Shippuden sandals). He also had a black shuriken holster on his right thigh over white bandages, large hip pouch, and ninjatō over his right shoulder. New additions to his jacket that he requested Kazehana embroidered last night were three black magatama on each side of his collar and Uzumaki crest patches on both sleeves' shoulder (His patch from his original canon outfit). Another new addition was a tantō he named 'White Fang'.
Flashback
Naruto exited the manor ready to prepare for his Genin Selection Exam. As he exited the compound, he noticed Kakashi leaning against its wall.
"Aniki, what are you doing here so early!" Naruto said shocked that Kakashi would be at his compound before his team's exam.
"Hey Naruto, I just wanted to congratulate you on completing the Academy. I wanted to give you a present." He handed him a rectangular box and he was opening it when Kakashi said, "I know you're take great care of it." He Shunshin away before Naruto even got a chance to open the box completely.
When Naruto open the box, he was shocked to see the legendary White Light Chakra Sabre that earned Kakashi's father Hayate Sakumo the name Konoha's White Fang. He looked up but Kakashi was already gone. He whispered to winds "Arigatō Aniki" as tears fell from his eyes running to the armory in order to strap it to his lower back.
"Where's Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto asked not sensing him in the area.
Sasuke mentioned, "He hasn't showed up yet."
Naruto inquired, "Did you guys eat breakfast?"
Sakura immediately yelled at him. "Kakashi-sensei said not to eat Naruto-baka, did you eat?"
Naruto pointed out, "Of course I did, and no Kakashi-sensei suggested not eating breakfast if we didn't want to throw it up." He then pulled out two bentos and handed them towards Sakura and Sasuke.
Sasuke took his bento saying, "Arigatō"
Sakura gave him a questioning gaze and he informed her, "If you don't eat you won't have energy to perform at your best during the test; what's the point of following orders if they lead to you failing a mission."
Sasuke nodded while Sakura hesitated for a moment before grabbing the other, "Arigatō."
They ate comfortably with Naruto sitting between them against a stump with his eyes closed. Sakura asked, "Who made these bentos, Naruto?"
Naruto smiled enjoying the fact that his teammates were please with their bentos. "I did; I learned how to cook from a few cookbooks to save money and also for survival training."
Sasuke just nodded approvingly digging into his tomato slices after finishing the scramble eggs and white rice wondering how Naruto knew they were his favorite. Sakura also notice that her bento was different from Sasuke. She had a small serving of scrambled eggs, white rice with steam vegetables and a mini serving of Shiratama Anmitsu (mochi, bean jam, agar, and pieces of fresh fruit served in syrup), her favorite. Her cheeks tinted pink considering that Naruto could make her favorite better than her mom whenever she wanted. When they finish Naruto sealed the empty containers back in a storage scroll placing it in his hip pouch; he turned toward the East as he sense Kakashi coming.
Kakashi suddenly appeared in front of them raising a brow at Naruto. "I like the new look Naruto, how did you know where I would appear?" Naruto stated plainly, "I sensed your chakra."
His teammates looked curious at him as Kakashi nodded, "So you're a sensor; how adapt are you?"
Naruto thought for a moment, "Well about 50 km if I concentrate hard enough and 10 km with little effort plus now I can completely suppress my chakra."
Kakashi nodded approvingly, "It's a rarity to find sensors nowadays but it was said that the Uzumaki clan were exceptional sensors."
Naruto chuckled sheepishly rubbing his nape, "Yea, that's why we also made great assassins. Well I wanted to dress more traditional to my clan standards. Also the nurses threw away the 'orange monstrosity' when it got bloody after hurting my head saving Ino. I only bought it solely for personal reasons, which helped in my unique training of stealth, infiltration and sabotage. I did have fun with my final 'prank' I mean test." He suddenly turned deathly serious with eyes as cold as ice while throwing a scroll to Kakashi, "The village's security is abysmal if an Academy student could elude patrols and 'prank' important village structures. The scroll details how I planned and successfully completed my 'tests'."
Kakashi stood shocked at the revelation before him, "So all those pranks were you actually training and taking notes of the weaknesses in the village's security." Naruto nodded as Kakashi pocketed the scroll, "Excellent job Naruto."
Sakura yelled after getting over her confusion, "You're late again, Kakashi-sensei"
Kakashi one-eyed smiled, "Ah, but I had to help an old lady with her groceries to the other side of the village."
Sakura narrowed her eyes while Naruto and Sasuke shrugged beginning to stretch, "Sakura, if you must know Sharingan no Kakashi, our sensei will never be on time except for an A-rank mission or a personal summons by Hokage-sama."
Kakashi smiled, "Ah you know me too well otouto." Naruto nodded and he continued, "Ok, this clock is set for noon." Kakashi said as he set an egg timer down showing two bells between his fingers in one hand. "Your task is to get these bells from me before times up."
Sakura said, "Kakashi-sensei, there's only two bells."
Kakashi smiled saying, "Exactly, whoever doesn't get a bell will be tied to a stump while the rest of us eat lunch in front of them. They will also be sent back to the Academy for remedial classes." Sasuke smirked towards Naruto who was silently waiting to get started as Sakura looked at him worriedly. "Come at me with the intent to kill otherwise you'll never get a bell. Ready, Start."
The three disappeared into the forest and Kakashi began accessing their hiding ability. "Sasuke is well hidden for a Genin, while I need to improve on Sakura, and Naruto I can't find him anywhere." He looked around but then saw Naruto still in the same spot.
Kakashi regarded him, "You're an oddball, aren't you?" Kakashi then reprimanded him, "Shinobi must be able to disappear and retreat into the shadows, never seen. You don't seem to understand that, Naruto; I would've thought you learned that from your training."
Naruto retorted, "I did but it's also pointless against a Jōnin that was once in ANBU like Sharingan no Kakashi; beside aren't you trying to access our skill level."
Kakashi reached into his pouch forcing Naruto into a defensive stance but he pulled out his Icha Icha Paradise. "Shinobi Lesson #1: Taijutsu."
Naruto smirked inwardly thinking 'So he trying to make me fluster by seeming to underestimate me; I'll play into it slightly'.
Naruto yelled in mock anger, "Hey, why are you reading?"
Kakashi not looking up said, "Why? Well I want to know the ending; besides since you're the Deadlast, it doesn't matter if I'm reading or not."
Naruto faded away 'What the hell' Kakashi thought but suddenly turned to block Naruto's kick to his left. Naruto flipped away as two kage bunshins appeared next to him. They rushed forward as Naruto went for a low sweep forcing Kakashi to jump over as both kage bunshin came down with an axe kick. Kakashi crossed his arms upwards blocking the dual attack as he slid back slightly. He immediately launched shurikens at the kage bunshin ending their existence. Naruto suddenly appeared from below after using Hiding like a Mole trying to uppercut Kakashi swatted the punch away. He followed up with a high backward heel kick which he caught but his eye widen when Naruto's twisted his body upside down sending his other leg to kick him in the throat. Kakashi blocked the kick, allowing Naruto to tap the bells for an instant before Kakashi intuitively kneed him in the throat. Naruto fell to the ground coughing out blood frightening Kakashi, "Sorry Naruto, it was…" 'Naruto' dispersed in a puff of smoke. Kakashi eye widen as he realized it was a kage bunshin but before he could compose himself two kage bunshins using Hiding like a Mole broke the ground nearly grabbed his feet as he jumped in the air to the side.
A voice rang throughout the clearing seemingly from nowhere, "Shinobi Lesson #3: Ninjutsu."
Sasuke immediately performed Katon: Grand Fireball sending a medium-size fireball toward the Jōnin. Kakashi immediately realized that the kage bunshins were a setup for Sasuke's attack. He Kawarimi just as the inferno engulfed him leaving behind a burnt log in his place.
Sakura thought, "Impossible, how could Naruto be so good and even touch a bell and is Sasuke-kun working with him?"She was beginning to believe she had mistaken him for Sasuke until she saw him send a fireball toward Kakashi. When Kakashi disappeared, she could feel her heart pounding and went searching for Sasuke. Then she spotted Kakashi reading his book leaning against a tree skidding to drop down to avoid detection. She thought 'Thank Kami, he didn't see me' as Naruto suddenly switched her with a kage bunshin disguised as her. She noticed she was now in the bushes with Naruto and Sasuke watching Kakashi tap 'her'.
Kakashi whispered to 'her', "Sakura, behind you Shinobi Lesson #2: Genjutsu." 'Sakura' turned around as he lifted his hitai-ate from his right eye, "Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Techn…." Suddenly 'Sakura' disperse in a puff of smoke, Kakashi eye widening thinking 'Naruto' as he realized a kage bunshin switched with her.
In the bushes, Squad 7 hid as Sakura asked, "What's going on?"
Naruto looked at Sasuke nodding and Sasuke left to engage their sensei. "Sakura, think about it if only two people can pass to become Genin. You're smart so you know about the Legendary Sannin or Hokage-sama's teammates of the Konoha Council. Beside we can't defeat a Jōnin individually so he expects us to team up."
Sakura thought for a moment, "What about the bells then?"
Naruto pointed out, "A distraction to make us turn against one another."
Sakura finally understanding nodded, "Ok, so what are we going to do?" Naruto then whispered the plan that he and Sasuke planned the previous night in her ear as her cheeks tinted pink from the closeness.
A Few Minutes Later
Naruto and Sakura then found Sasuke buried in the ground, trying to pull himself out. Sakura screamed and Naruto shook his head freeing him, "Harder than it looks isn't it."
He receives only an "Hn" then Sasuke smirked, "I touched a bell too."
Naruto nodded approvingly, "I didn't ever doubt you could." He then whispered receiving a nod from Sasuke, "Let's get the final act started."
Naruto stated loudly while Sasuke then subdue her tying her up. "Alright Sakura, neither me nor Sasuke can defeat Kakashi-sensei, so you're the odd man out."
Sakura feigned shocked began squirming trying to get free, "What are you guy's doing?"
Naruto chuckled lightly, "Well Sasuke and I decided that if we couldn't get a bell, we'd use you as a hostage to negotiate for the bells."
Suddenly an angered Kakashi appeared, "You would use your own teammate just to pass the test."
Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other laughing haughtily, "We don't need her; with me and Naruto's skills we'd be the best Genin team out of our class."
Naruto threaten the tied up Sakura with a kunai, "Come on Kakashi-sensei, no need for anyone to get hurt just hand over the bells."
Kakashi leaked KI yelling, "I'd never teach either of y…" He suddenly felt a light wisp by his hip and looked down to see a stick hit the ground and the bells missing. He looked back up widening his eye as he saw an untied Sakura arms wrapped around Naruto and Sasuke holding a bell in each hand. Suddenly the 'Sakura' in front of Naruto winked at him before dispersing in a puff of smoke.
Kakashi one-eyed smiled, "An impressive plan, you two flustering and distracting me while Sakura snatched the bells and Kawarimi with a stick."
They nodded, "Well congratulations being the first to ever pass my test so from this day forward we will officially be Squad 7."
The bell rang as they returned towards the stumps to have lunch; as they walked Kakashi spoke, "I'm glad you discovered the true point of the test; In the Shinobi world, those who break the rules and regulations are called trash, but those who don't care about their comrades are worse than trash." They nodded fully understanding his message.
Suddenly Neko appeared, "Uzumaki-sama, the Hokage requests your presence."
Naruto looked asking, "May I bring my team?" Neko just shrugged and Shunshin away.
Earlier Near Konoha's Gates
Honoka and Ringo Ameyuri approached Konoha when suddenly a Tori masked and several masked ANBU appeared, "Ringo Ameyuri, member of Seven Shinobi Swordsman of the Mist, wielder of Kiba and Uzumaki Honoka; we'll escort you directly to the Hokage Tower." Ameyuri and Honoka nodding surrounded by ABNU with weapons pointed at Ameyuri.
Upon reaching the Hokage, the Sandaime greeted them, "Welcome Ameyuri and Honoka to Konoha. Jiraiya notified me of your intent to join the Uzumaki clan in Konoha; I know a certain redhead that will be very excited to meet you."
The Sandaime focusing on the two women before him, "Ringo Ameyuri, where have you been? Word had spread that you had died from some incurable disease a while back."
She smiled mischievously, "Executing would be treasure hunters trying to loot Uzushio while waiting for the civil war in Kiri to end. Jiraiya and Honoka stumbled upon me informing me that the Uzumaki clan was being restored in Konoha."
The Sandaime nodded as he took a drag from his pipe then look at Honoka, "Honoka was it, where are you from?"
Honoka nodded, "Yes, my parents left Uzushio a few years before it's destruction then give birth to me in a small town on the outskirts of Hi no Kuni near Kusa no Kuni border. After their death I began working with some scientist on a summoning project on Summons Island."
The Sandaime puff a few circles of smoke, "Yes, Jiraiya informed me of that little incident." Honoka hung her head shamefully as he continued, "Well, if you would fill out these documents I will gladly make changes to the clan's registry as well as approve your citizenship in Konoha." The Sandaime then asked, "Would y'all like to join Konoha's Shinobi force?"
Ameyuri smiling toothily and Honoka responded, "We would like to meet with the clan head or heir as we have various obligations to him first. We would like to focus on the important duties necessary for stabilizing clan affairs."
The Sandaime nodded understandingly still giving Ameyuri Jōnin- level and Honoka Chūnin-level notations on their file. The Sandaime requested an ANBU ordering, "Please bring Uzumaki Naruto, he is probably finishing his Genin Selection Exam knowing Kakashi."
Now at the Hokage Tower
After all reports and paperwork were completed, there was a knock at the door. The Sandaime answered, "Enter."
Squad 7 entered and Naruto stepped forward kneeling, "Hokage-sama."
The Sandaime wave off the decorum, "You may stand Naruto-kun."
He stood as Squad 7 noticed the two women; Naruto cocked his head confusingly, "Who are they?" Honoka, an average sized woman with dark eyes, long red hair with several bangs sticking out a white band on her forehead wore a short white skirt, a purple sleeveless kimono blouse with yellow trimmings held by a traditional obi, and long streaming bows tied to it and mesh armor underneath.
She approached him mesmerized by his cerulean eyes, "Konnichiwa, I'm Uzumaki Honoka and this is Ringo Ameyuri former Seven Shinobi Swordsman of the Mist." She pointed to a relatively short about (4'9") woman with sharp teeth smiling at him toothily. "We came to help you with restoring the clan."
He smiled gently shaking her hand turning to Ameyuri. She had long red hair distinctively tied at both sides to protrude upwards and downwards while the remainder of her hair flowed downwards, black eyes wearing bandages loosely tied around her neck with a loose pinstriped long sleeved shirt with a dark obi around her waist, black pants resembling hakama and striped leg warmers.
He bowed before her, "I'm honor to meet you and glad the rumors of your death were false. Will you help resurrect the Kurai Hogosha (Dark Guardians)?" Ameyuri nodded smiling mischievously.
Sakura questioned, "Kurai Hogosha, what's that?"
Naruto responded, "A clan secret."
Naruto turned back to Honoka and Ameyuri bowing to introduce himself and his team. He thumbed his chest proudly, "I'm Naruto, Uzumaki Naruto; this is Uchiha Sasuke, he now lives in my manor."
Naruto pointed to Sasuke shocking several and the Sandaime asked, "Why did you move to the Uzumaki compound Sasuke?"
Sasuke shrugged, "Naruto discovered in his mother's journal that we were god brothers and convince me it would be better for team chemistry and training so I accepted." Kakashi smiled knowing their rivalry would be more similar to siblings than ever. The Sandaime nodded knowing the close friendship Kushina and Mikoto had before their deaths.
Sakura was shocked, "G-god brothers?"
Both Naruto and Sasuke nodded with responding, "Yea, seem that our mothers were great friends. They were excited when they found out they were pregnant around same time. They were planning and wishing that Sasuke and me would grow up playing together and eventually be teammates."
The Sandaime smiled, "Yes they were some of the finest kunoichi to grace the village both achieving Jōnin rank. You would've been placed with the Uchiha Matriarch if not for certain circumstances." Naruto just nodded knowing that being the Kyūbi Jinchūriki would make it difficult for any clan to adopt him.
Naruto then continued pointing to Sakura, "This is Haruno Sakura, we just passed our Genin Selection Exam and became Squad 7 under the tutelage of the infamous Sharingan no Kakashi-sensei." He pointed back towards the one-eyed mask Jōnin.
The Sandaime smiled, "Well Kakashi, I don't have to ask you later if your team passed or not, congratulations Squad 7." Squad 7 smiled bowing in appreciation and the Sandaime added, "I need the Uzumaki clan to report back later this evening for a meeting of the clans to properly acclimate the Uzumaki clan with the other clans of Konoha."
Naruto then asked, "May Kakashi-sensei along with the other Genin squads sensei, Higurashi Rui-san, Teuchi, Ayame-chan, Tsubaki-chan, Kazehana-chan, Tenten-chan and Harunos also attend."
This incited several raised brows and the Sandaime nodded while Sakura questioned irritably "Tenten-chan?"
Naruto nodded, "Yea, I've already given her residence as well as Rui, Teuchi, Ayame-chan, Tsubaki-chan, Kazehana-chan, and Sasuke. I was going to make the same offer to Kakashi-sensei and you today."
Kakashi stepped forward ruffling Naruto's hair, "I graciously accept Naruto; it'll be a great opportunity to be close to my cute little otouto."
Naruto swatted his hand away, "It's nothing Aniki since you're one of my precious people." He then looked at Sakura, "I've already sent an invitation to your parents to discuss moving onto the Uzumaki compound?"
Sakura nodded smiling, "I-I'll go let them know about the meeting," She ran out the office joyful she could soon be living close to her crush.
Naruto address the Hokage bowing, "Hokage-sama, we'll take our leave to head to get Honoka and Ameyuri settled so see you later." The Sandaime nodded and smiled taking a puff from his pipe requesting Kakashi stay for the Jōnin-sensei meeting in a few minutes as the remaining occupants exited to head to the Uzumaki compound.
They arrive at the compound entering the Uzumaki Manor and sitting in a chair in the living room was Kazehana. She noticed them, "Naruto-kun, I'm so glad you're home." She jumped from the chair running and pulling him into a passionate kiss wearing nothing but a small lavender tank top showing off her generous bust and skimpy Khaki shorts hugging her plump buttocks snugly.
Suddenly a suffocating amount of KI flowed throughout the manor as Naruto turned towards with the other females seeing Ameyuri glaring furiously at him and Kazehana. Sasuke smirked leaving for his room already knowing his new friend's dilemma.
Naruto sheepishly rubbed the back of his head, "Oh I forgot that she might be waiting for me."
Ameyuri stepped forward brandishing a blade threateningly out of nowhere asking, "Mind telling us just who this is, Naruto?"
Naruto gulped stepping back pointing to the source of Ameyuri's fury, "Well this is Kazehana-chan that I mentioned earlier. I'm providing her sanctuary from Gatō the shipping magnate who trying to force her into a marriage."
Kazehana intertwined her arms around his neck from behind squishing her bosom into his head. "Aw, but you do so much more than just that for me Naruto-kun."
He was incredulously looking back at her like 'woman are you crazy' and then sigh, "Look Kazehana-chan and I are intimate partners; as well as there are several other girls of interest."
Kazehana was closely watching Honoka seeing that she just stood by calmly, "I take it you are more familiar with Uzumaki dealings than your fellow clanswoman."
Honoka nodded, "Yes I'm very much aware that we practice polygamy and even if we didn't Naruto-kun being the last known male and head of a prestigious and prodigious clan as ours would be required to mate with several females."
Ameyuri shouted, "What?"
Kazehana smirked, "Glad to see that there'll be one more rational female joining me in explaining things to others."
Naruto clear his throat to gain their attention, "Honoka did you ever receive an Uzumaki tattoo."
Honoka raised a brow, "You know about the Uzumaki tattoo?"
Naruto smiled, "Yes, it was branded into the Clan Head tattoo after I graduated the Academy but that is a story for another time."
Her eyes widen shaking her head, "Since Uzushio was destroyed before my birth my parents told me that only the Clan Head could brand an Uzumaki."
Naruto nodded, "Yes that's true but thankfully I'm now Clan Head so Honoka and Ameyuri follow me; I'll brand you."
Ameyuri stopped him, "I'm not an Uzumaki though."
Naruto smirked running his hand through her hair gently, "So where did you think you got such lovely red hair from like us."
Ameyuri now looked at their hair and her own seeing the similarities, "I always just thought I was unique."
Naruto smiled, "Well you are my beautiful little piranha. It's called being an Uzumaki." She chomped her teeth at him playfully with a blush. They followed him to the ritual room and he branded them. They notice that after Ameyuri was tattooed she glowed brightly as a surge of chakra went through her system. Naruto explained, "Since you weren't pure Uzumaki that surge of chakra was to awaken your latent genes." She nodded understanding that she could truly call herself an Uzumaki now; they returned to the living room where Kazehana sat waiting.
While they sat in the living room, Honoka stated, "I heard the Uzumaki Family Tree portrait was held in the Grand Hall back in Uzushio that showed whose related to whom as well as if they were dead or alive." Naruto nodded pulling out a small replica of said portrait. While scanning through the names he showed them Uzumaki Ashina, the clan head from the time of the Shodaime and his niece Mito. His great granddaughter Kushina and finally Naruto's name in bold aqua blue underneath. Honoka pointed out, "This signifies Naruto-kun as the 7th generation clan head being the great-great grandson of Ashina Uzumaki." She then noticed her connection to the Priestess lineage through her uncle's wife.
After they ate lunch prepared by a kage bunshin, they set out to tour the compound. Naruto informed them of different features of the Uzumaki Estate such as the Uzumaki Clan's Mask Storage Temple, Ashina's Monument, and Minor Manors. He then showed them around the compounds' Shinobi Housing District, Civilian Housing District. They visited the Clan Mausoleum where they saw a statue of what seemed to be a beautiful woman with rabbit-like horns on her head and three eyes. Behind her were four banners with images and names of four men; Ōtsutsuki Hamura, Hagoromo, Indra and Asura. Next, he showed them the Eternal Fire Memorial surprisingly honoring all the dead clansmen of the Kaguya, Senju, Uchiha, and Uzumaki clans in front of the Grand Hall located in the Main District.
He informed them, "I actually use the Uzumaki Compound Restoration Seal to structurally modify the compound to match Uzushio's Uzumaki Compound before restructuring the layout to add buildings for the Uzumaki Estate, Shinobi, Civilian, and Main District." After they finished, everyone headed back to the Uzumaki Estate to dress to go to the Hokage Tower to meet and properly introduce themselves to the other clans.
Naruto walking beside Kazehana whispered, "Can you please come to my room I have a last minute alteration I want made to my clan kimonos?" Kazehana seductively smirked nodding
Once everyone was dressed in formal wear, Naruto wore his black battle kimono with mesh armor underneath, red hakama, an aqua blue obi and haori himo, red haori with the official Uzumaki clan insignia on the back, white tabi socks and red setta sandals designed by Kazehana with the new alterations. Naruto proudly lead his entourage towards the tower, as they pass through the village many people kept stopping to stare at the small group of Uzumakis as they stroll through. Naruto had the biggest smile while many were whispering. "The Uzumaki clan is growing already and the Uchiha is with them."
The Hokage Tower
Once they entered the tower, they were lead to a big meeting hall where the Sandaime, Konoha Council, Elder Danzō also representing the Shimura clan, Clan Heads and their families, and Squad 7,8, and 10 Jōnin-sensei.
Naruto stepped forward bowing to the Sandaime, Konoha Council, Elder Danzō, and Clan Heads stating with a smirk. "Greetings on behalf of the Uzumaki clan, I am Uzumaki Naruto, the 7th generation Clan Head and great-great grandson of Uzumaki Ashina by decree of clan laws."
The Sandaime eyes nearly bulged out, "You're a direct descendant of Ashina-sama?"
Naruto nodded, "Did you know him Hokage-sama?"
The Sandaime shook his head, "No, I only heard and read great and fearsome things about him from Mito-sama and Hashirama-sensei. The Uzumaki Clan Head during the time of the Clan Warring Era who nearly wiped out the Hyūga clan, which were the your rival in comparison to the Senju-Uchiha rivalry. It was reported he just disappeared during the beginning of the First Shinobi World War."
Hiashi stiffened at this remembering history lessons from his grandfather of the Clan Warring Era. Naruto looked at Hiashi expressionless face having both his daughters and Neji with him "Hyūga-san I know our clans haven't gotten along in the past but I would like to rekindle a kinship between us from the time before that incident. I implore you to allow me to create a more efficient humane seal to be used as protection for the Byakugan and end the use of the Caged Bird Seal." Hinata, Hanabi and Neji along with several other occupants' eyes widen and Hiashi eye twitched. "I know why your clan was once nearly exterminated by my great-great grandfather and empathize that he should have handled it better and know that he regrets his actions at the time."
Hiashi gave him an incredulous look "Enlighten me Uzumaki-san."
Naruto nodded, "When the Hyūga clan came to the Uzumaki clan for help in protecting the Byakugan they stole and warped the Uzumaki Prisoner Seal creating the abomination, Caged Bird Seal. As a clan that always puts family above all and priding ourselves on our fūinjutsu abilities; Ashina-sama found it extremely disrespectful to use our knowledge to create such a travesty to be used on family rushing to punish the Hyūga main branch."
Hiashi responded, "Well Uzumaki-san as much as I appreciate the offer I would advise you to stay out of other clan's business if you truly wish to restore your clan peacefully."
Naruto caught everyone by surprise as he laughed darkly drowning the room in KI before calmly declaring, "Hyūga-san, I would advise YOU not to take my youth as incompetent to extinguish all those that threaten my clan especially when I have the knowledge and 'POWER' to destroy them."
Everyone could feel the powerfully pressure directed solely toward the Hyūga Patriarch as the Sandaime quickly shouted, "NARUTO."
Naruto bow sincerely then smirked toward Hiashi, "My apologies Hokage-sama, it seems Hyūga-san caught me in my blind spot."
Hiashi brow rose vaguely questioning, "You don't?"
Naruto answered plainly, "I have great-great grandfather personal journals. As I said before I only wish to eliminate an abomination of my clan's art so if you agree a blood oath could be established then again I could just offer asylum to branch members that wish to have their seal replaced."
Hiashi irritably questioned, "You wouldn't?" Naruto's smirk was all the answer he needed. Hiashi then closed his eyes shortly, "I would need to discuss this matter with the Elders."
Naruto nodded, "I understand you have three months or I send word to the Fire Daimyo and begin accepting branch members but you may send a messenger whenever ready." Hiashi nodded and some in the room were already looking forward to the end result especially Danzō smirking inwardly.
Everyone sat or stood curious of the exchange between the two Clan Heads. Finally, the Sandaime cleared his throat "If we could continue with the Uzumaki clan induction ceremony."
Naruto stood nobly, "First I'd like to state I am enacting the Uzumaki Clan Resurrection Act which clan laws require that I have at least four wives not including the Head Priestess of the priestess bloodline as well as taking on several concubines." Everyone could hear a slight perverted giggle from Kakashi to which Naruto just shook his head but keep a stoic visage "It's because I am the LAST known male clan laws required such extreme measure be taken to ensure enough male offspring are produced to restore the clan." Most of the men had smirks on their faces while a few females not of the Uzumaki clan felt disgusted by such practices.
Tsume laughed raucously making everyone look at her until she settled down, "Pup, you must be a 'True Alpha' male as you made that entire statement with a straight face and passion for your clan that you'd do whatever it takes to restore them."
Naruto smirked nodding at her compliment, "Kami did bless me with a God's stamina."
This cause the Uzumaki clan women and several other females present to blush while Kazehana wrapped around him from behind nodding vehemently. "Thank you Kami for truly blessing us with such a gift."
Tsume stared without blinking before smirking, "I have a daughter that's very much available."
Hana stammered trying to form a sentence and the room erupted in laughter at her. "Ka-Kaa-chan, He's only twelve."
Then Naruto slipped out of Kazehana's hold walking up to her, grasping her hand softly kissing it. He pointed to the curvaceous young woman, "Aw, but my beautiful spring flower; I've already been intimate with Kazehana-chan not to mention I'm interest from Ayame-chan." Now he was pointing to the young ramen chef. "They're both around the same age as you so don't worry I'm accustomed to handling older woman quite well." He had a fox like grin that could melt the ice in any girl's heart.
Kazehana then added, "Hana, I can assure you Naru-kun will take good care of ALL your needs." The entire room went silent as everyone look at Hana for a response to find her opening and closing her mouth like a fish with a crimson blush.
Inoichi deciding to have a little fun with his daughter smirked, "I would suggest my daughter as well Naruto-san but you may be too much for her at this time."
Ino blushing yelled, "Daddy."
His wife slapped his arm playfully smirking as well, "Naruto-san, be that as it may; we would love for to have dinner with us as thanks for saving our daughter a month ago."
Naruto smirked, "How about you Ino? Would you love for me to come over for dinner?" Ino blushed intensified shyly avoiding his gaze nodding.
He then turned back to Tsume who was shaking her head at her daughter "Since my daughter seems incapacitated at the moment maybe you could also join us for dinner sometime." This incited laughter throughout the room even the stoic Hyūga Clan Head lips twitched upward spotting his daughter glaring at the Yamanaka heiress 'You really have a way with the ladies just like your father Naruto-san' as Naruto chuckled nodding while returning to his entourage. The Sandaime flexed his chakra requesting everyone calm down.
Naruto then introduced his fellow Uzumaki clansmen. "Honoka will become our clan's curator and my personal advisor. Ameyuri is actually an Uzumaki was a former Seven Shinobi Swordsmen of the Mist will be one my guardians."
Neko immediately dropped before the Sandaime kneeling, "Hokage-sama may I make a request?" The room went silence as everyone was curious why an ANBU would suddenly appear making a request. The Sandaime nodded waving his hand in approval, "Go ahead."
Neko nodded, "I wish to relinquish my tenure in ANBU and take my rightful place as Uzumaki-sama's personal bodyguard."
Gasp echoed throughout the room and the Sandaime asked, "Are you sure about this Neko?"
Neko replied, "Yes Hokage-sama, it was my family's duty in Uzushio before it's destruction causing my grandparents and father to flee to Konoha."
The Sandaime ordered, "Take off your mask." Neko placed the mask before him
She turned and kneeled head bow before Naruto, "Uzumaki-sama, I protected you many times during your childhood as my duties to Hokage-sama. Now I, Uzuki Yūgao of the Uzuki family of Uzushio vow to protect you with my life until my last breath." Naruto finally seeing her Yūgao's face saw a young woman with straight purple hair reaching her down to her waist, warm brown eyes and a shade of red lipstick.
Then Kazehana moved forward whispering in his ear, "Naru-kun I have deceive you again as I knew of your heritage and burden when you first told me your name." She then knelt next to Yūgao, "Naruto-sama I, Uzume Kazehana of the Uzume family of Uzushio offer myself to you fully as your personal servant and mistress."
Ayame moved forward from the back kneeling next to Kazehana and Naruto nearly collapsed from shock "Ayame?" as he attempted to pull her up but Honoka held him and glared "Naruto-sama I, Ayame of Konoha offer myself to you fully as your first concubine." Many in the room were stunned and speechless.
Naruto finally regain his composure when reminded by Honoka whispering, "Naruto-sama, you have to respect their choice or shame them for life. Now complete the Blood Oath to officially recognize their vows and accept their offers."
Naruto nodded, "I, Uzumaki Naruto, 7th generation Clan Head of the Uzumaki clan." Naruto reach into his haori pulling out an ink brush and a special bottle of blood ink. He then drew the seals for bodyguard and servant on Yūgao and Kazehana's respective right wrist and concubine on Ayame's left hand ring finger. He then bit his thumb and performing the hand seals of Uzumaki Blood Oath. "Hereby grant you all rights and privileges of your station by the powers bestow upon me as clan head." He sent chakra into each of their seal, "Now stand proudly." After welcoming Yūgao, they exchanged hugs and congratulation.
The clans then started their introduction of clan's Patriarch, Matriarch, and heirs in alphabetically order going from the Aburame, whom he informed he wish for an alliance between their clans to be discuss afterwards; Akimichi, Hyūga, Inuzuka, Kurama, Nara, Sarutobi, Shimura and finally Yamanaka. After meeting with everyone, Ino ask why he had the kanji for the Kyūbi no Yōko stitched on his right sleeve.
Several in the room tense as Naruto looked to the Sandaime asking, "Hokage-sama, am I allowed to tell them?"
The Sandaime waved his hand, "It's your secret to tell Naruto-kun"
Shikamaru asked, "So you have the Kyūbi sealed in you?" He went back to staring at the ceiling after getting a nod from Naruto muttering "troublesome."
Naruto smiled,"I knew if anyone could figure it out it would be you Shika."
Shikamaru spare him a glance, "I wasn't completely sure until just now but the instructors and older civilians always acted weird around you and the adults wouldn't say why."
Naruto nodded, "My status as the Jinchūriki of the Kyūbi no Yōko is an S-rank secret not to be spoken with penalty of death regardless of status. Which I don't understand because the Jinchūrikis of Kumo receive praise and it's not a secret that Kazekage's youngest son is an unstable host. You should just announce it Hokage-sama so that at least children can understand why their parents warn them and shun me."
The Sandaime nodded when suddenly a boisterous Kiba stuttered out, "You're the K-K-Kyūbi." Which both his mom and sister both bashed him over the head into the ground.
Naruto irritated by Kiba's ignorance asked Kiba, "if you take a kunai and put it in a storage scroll would the storage scroll become a kunai." A remorseful Kiba realizing his mistake hung his head shaking it and mouthed 'no'.
The Aburame clan stood bowing with Shino speaking surprising everyone, "We of the Aburame clan respect and understand that your relationship with the Kyūbi is no different than our clan's symbiotic relationship with our kikaichu bugs."
Naruto nodded loosening his obi then took his haori off and slipped his kimono off his shoulders pulling his mesh armor up pass his stomach, which had all the women blushing at his faintly growing six-pack. He then applied chakra to his stomach making the seal appear. "The Yondaime using two Four Symbols Seals an Uzumaki clan sealing formula together created Eight Trigrams Sealing Style. He left an opening where the two seals meet allowing the Kyūbi's chakra to slowly integrate into my reserves increasing them." After putting his clothes back on, he invited all the clans to attend a clan cookout that weekend so they could celebrate the three new Genin squads and tour the Uzumaki compound. He bowed to the Hokage, Konoha Council, and Clan Heads before departing for the compound with his entourage including the Aburame and Haruno, who had already graciously accepted his offer to move to the compound.
Uzumaki Compound
Once through the gates before everyone dispersed to their respective homes and Naruto created kage bunshins to escort his Aniki and the Haruno family to their respective residence. He along with the Aburame entered the main manor in the Uzumaki Estate as follow they followed him. Once seated in his office with Honoka offset to his right and Yūgao to his left Naruto chose to address the Aburame head, "Shibi-san, I believe I have a proposition that would be beneficial to both our clans and Konoha."
Shibi questioned, "What exactly do you have in mind Naruto-san?"
Naruto smiled as Kazehana brought in green tea for everyone. He pointed to her, "Well you see Kazehana-chan here is an amazing seamstress. Since your clan is renowned for the best silk throughout the Elemental Nations, I would like a few of your silk beetles with harvesting technique. In exchange, I'll provide hyperbolic growth chambers to reduce your hive growth time."
The Aburame brows rose significantly, "You are telling me that you have a way for hive to grow rapidly."
Naruto nodded, "Yes, I've created hyperbolic growth chambers where time passes 365 times faster than in the real world."
If the Aburame did not wear glasses, Naruto would have seen their eyes bulge out of their sockets as the Matriarch gasp. Shibi adjusted his glasses, "If you can truly provide such knowledge then we would be more than happy to provide you with a whole silk beetle hive with harvesting technique." Naruto nodded retrieving a large scroll from his office storage room. "I've included ten hive chambers that only need you to charge chakra once daily. Each chamber has the capacity for up to a million beetles, which once maximize will no longer charge."
Shibi nodded, "Naruto-san, on behalf of the Aburame clan I graciously accept your proposal; I will personally bring the hive and teach Kazehana the harvesting technique." The two clan heads shook hands and bow before the Aburame left for their compound.
Honoka smiled approvingly, "That was good for your first alliance Naruto-kun but you need to learn better negotiation tactics; you gave them a considerable benefit for one little silk beetle hive and harvesting technique."
Naruto shrugged, "I really only did it for the harvesting technique because I have a few kage bunshins retrieving the reclusive rare silk metal beetles for a few hyperbolic growth chambers. We will have an unlimited supply of silk metal and Aburame silk for clothing and ninja wire to sell and stock our armory."
Neko smiled, "Naruto-sama, you're a shrewd one." He smiled appreciatively of her approval.
Kazehana smiled nodding approvingly as he gestured towards her, "Kazehana-chan, please retrieve Sasuke; we need to discuss a few things privately."
Late Night
Naruto was standing on a small bridge overlooking a pond of koi fish. When Honoka approach him, "Naruto-sama, why are you out here so late?"
Naruto looked to her and then the stars, "Do you feel that a Clan Head must be willing to do anything to strengthen his clan?"
She thought for a moment, "Well if what he or she must do is in the interest of protecting their clan than yes."
Naruto looked at her from the corner of his eye before at the fish below, "What about wanting to gain power to protect and strengthen one's clan?"
She could feel that his mind troubling but what she did not know. "What powers do want exactly Naruto-sama?"
He sigh, "I don't know I just look at the world and I see and hear of so many clans being wiped out and wish to ensure that what happened to Uzushio never happens to the Uzumaki again."
Honoka smiled lightly stepped close to him, "I can feel great warmth from you Naruto-sama and that warmth tells me that you will become the greatest Clan Head in Uzumaki history." She leaned in pulling his mask down kissing his lips softly.
He stood wide eye with a smile, "H-Honoka-chan?"
Honoka giggled a little, "Just because I chose not to show my feelings towards you doesn't mean I don't have them." She rested against him her head on his shoulder and he wrapped his arms around her.
He looked to stars smiling, "Arigatō Honoka-chan, I appreciate that because I felt like I need to darken my heart to ensure I accomplish the goals I have for our clan."
Honoka smiled, "They say the end doesn't justify the means but yet the sacrifice of one is worth it to save hundreds or thousands. I just know that so long you don't lose who you are as a person then whatever actions you take will be forgiven by those that truly love you."
He lifted her head looking deep into her eyes as the smirks matched and kissed her. He held her cheek softly running a hand through her hair. They finally broke to gasp for oxygen as neither wanted to relent the pleasure of the other's lips.
Underground Office
Naruto sat at his desk with his chin resting on his hands. He was looking at four vials of DNA liquid. He was serious when he asked Honoka if a Clan Head had to anything to ensure the protection of his clan. Now before him lie not only the catalyst for beginning one of his many goals but obtaining power only a few could only dream of. He sealed the contents in a special blood storage scroll sealing it into a seal storage seal underneath his desk. He walked out and headed back to his manor to get some needed rest as he had his team's first official meeting and possibly mission tomorrow.
He walked into his room not surprised to see Kazehana in his bed and stripped down to his boxers before sliding in beside her. She turned pulling him into her body and kissed his cheek. "Oyasumi Naru-kun."
He smiled putting his hands over hers, "Oyasumi Kazehana-chan."
