Chapter 4- My decision

"Why are you here."

Yondaime smiled, "Don't be unreasonable… it was your fault for not realizing that I was the leader of Akatsuki."

Before Orochimaru can reply the doors banged open revealing Sasuke.

"Where is Naruto!"

"Well that didn't seem like a question did it?"

Sasuke glared, "Answer me! Where is he?"

Yondaime looked at Sasuke, "why do you want to know? You didn't seem like you cared for him when both of you were at the leaf village."

Sasuke flinched.

"Yes I do admit," Yondaime stepped closer, "If you actually gained his trust before this all happened all my plans would have failed… but…"

Sasuke gasped one blink and he was right behind him holding a kunai by his neck.

"It is different now, He is different now… Naruto is going to follow my footstep… not the 3rd's, not anyone's but mine."

Orochimaru took a step forward and even though he did not show it he was sweating, "Why is it that you're here?"

Yondaime lowered his hands and stepped towards Orochimaru, "For one thing I was bored and for another… I'm here to make a proposal…"

"na-naruto…"

"Naruto! What is the meaning of this?" yelled Tsunade.

"What do you think I am doing?" asked Naruto as he stepped closer, "… I came for a visit."

"Naruto!" yelled Neji as he ran to the crowd of people. Behind him was Sakura, Kiba, Lee, Ino, Shikamaru, and many others.

"Well, well, well if it isn't my so called friends…"

Sakura flinched when he saw Naruto… his hair was long, maybe longer then Neji's and his eyes… they were… so cold.

"Naruto-kun what are you doing with an Akatsuki member?" yelled Lee as he pointed at Itachi

Naruto stepped closer, "Because I decided to join them."

Orochimaru remained silent.

"I'm willing to let you have authority over Naruto for a time being as long as Itachi-kun would be here with him."

Orochimaru and Sasuke looked shock as well as other sound ninja in the room.

"and what is the catch?"

Yondaime looked up at him, "destroy Konoha… and everyone that has connection to it…. Except Kakashi."

"Naruto, are you crazy?" shouted Ino as she stepped closer

"Naruto-kun you're the one who wanted to become the Hokage and protect the village!" shouted Lee

Naruto smirked, "Hokage? Well I thought of that before but you were right," he turned to Neji, "few are borned with that fate… and I am not one of them."

"Naruto! Please listen to me!" yelled Neji, "You can't just betray the village like Sasuke did! The village already suffered enough when Sasuke left!"

Naruto glared at him, "Neji look around you! Do you honestly believe any of the villagers were sad that I left? They were more relieved if you asked me!"

"What are you talking about?" asked Kiba

"NARUTO DON'T!" yelled Tsunade

"Why Tsunade-sama?" asked Naruto in a cold voice, "I always thought it was a curse but now I think about it it is a blessing…" he turned back to Neji, "Do you, Hyuuga Neji, actually believe anyone in this village cared about me? Ask your parents any of you! Ask them why they don't want you hanging out with me!"

At this many of the villagers flinched knowing what was coming.

Naruto looked around then looked again at his formal friends, "Do you think you yourself would like me if you knew what I am?"

"Naruto please…" Sakura stared to cry.

"…I, Uzumaki Naruto, am the vessel of the demon Nine Tail Fox."

They stood there in silence…

'Everything makes sense now… why didn't I notice it before…" thought Neji…

"Even if you wanted to destroy the village why would you do this?" asked Orochimaru

Yondaime smiled, "If Naruto stays with Sasuke there is less chance of him going back to his village… and plus don't you think if Naruto and Sasuke combine their powers they can easily destroy the village?"

"Are you saying that Naruto can't do this by himself?" asked Orochimaru with a smirk

"No…" came the reply, "What I am saying is that if you want to get revenge on the village this would be your perfect chance… because I assure you Naruto…"

"I…"

"…well destroy Konoha…"
