thimond117Well, I am truly sorry about the update rate... The last month was fuckful.. The last weeks and the following two will be very hard for me, but as I said, I try to update as fast as I can. I'm not a fan of 'Let's vote' too , but I remember for example, in anime, at some point, Tsunade tried not to listen to what the elders were saying, and did a bad thing. Well, i really hate bashing too, I've had enough... You can rant if you want to :)

Disclaimers (In chapter 3 I forgot to write the Disclaimers) : I don't own any of the Naruto characters that are both in anime/manga and my story.

Read, enjoy and review!

Chapter 5- A new group

With Naruto, in Uzushiogakure

"Hmm .. wait a second! He did mention my mother's name "I hope that if the village was destroyed, a Uzumaki will still be able to enter this room and find this journal, maybe even Kushina" . So if this Kushina is my mother, I might be related to the Third Uzukage. And another thing, he did mention about "a small scroll that is said to be left by Rikudou Sennin himself, we weren't able to read it, perhaps you need the rinnegan to read. ". Hmm, how does it look like?" Kyubi, who was listening to what the boy saying, remembered something : "Take the brat to Whirpool Country, in the Uzukage Mansion, in the Vault and tell him to search for a black scroll. Make sure he doesn't return to Konoha." " Hmm now I see..." thought Kyubi. "Brat, search for a black scroll. I think that's the scroll we're looking for." Naruto nodded and searched for a black scroll. Luckily for him, there was only one black scroll. As soon as he took the black scroll in his hand and opened it, the scroll turned white and the symbols that at first had no sense, turned into normal written Japanese.

" So the time has come and the one that should open the scroll , opened it. I am Rikudou Sennin or as many people call me, Sage of the Six Paths. This scroll shows you the powers of the rinnegan and how to use them. To find about the Juubi, Sharingan and my story , you have to find the Naka Shinre. I was named the Sage of the Six Paths , because of the six different types of power I have. These six types are: 1. Deva Path; 2. Asura Path.3. Human Path. 4. Animal Path.5. Preta Path.6. Naraka Path. The Deva Path grants you the ability to manipulate attractive and repulsive forces with objects and people […] However, only a few people know that there a seventh path, called "Outer Path". I descovered this path only two years after defeating Juubi. With the Outer Path, you are able to control life and death by reviving the dead, bind and restrict foes, as well as create and control the Six Paths. So you can revive the dead ones and use them as bodies for your paths. 6 bodies for each path, leaving you for the 7th path. This last part of the scroll will help you understand how these paths work and will also help you master them, but it will take you years to master them. I suggest that you learn how to control the Outer Path, Shinra Tensei and Banshō Ten'in and find 6 bodies and make them learn their respective paths. This way it will take you less to master the Rinnegan's powers.

"Ok, so I'll do how Rikudou Sensei says, so I should go and find those 6 bodies. Hmm, I already have in mind the first 5, but the sixth? I'll have to find out later while retrieving the first 5."

Time skip: 7 months

The last 6 months, Naruto learned how to control the Outer Path, Shinra Tensei and Banshō Ten'in and learned the basics of the , he thought that it was the time for him to leave Uzushiogakure and retrieve the bodies for his paths. Little did he know about the things that were supposed to happen. " Kyubi, I think it's the right moment to leave and find the bodies. We'll use Uzushiogakure for training and Head Quarters for my actions." " Hmph... So you're goin' to Konoha right? " "Yeah and I need to hide my appearance, 'cause the villagers will still recognise me." "So I need to teach you this henge. Ok. Draw some blood on your left hand and use the handsign for Henge, but this time focus more chakra and think about the part of the body you want to change and how you want to change it." "Ok, let me try and see how it turns out." he said as he followed the steps and his hair changed its colour in red and then did the same thing , but changing his height. Now in the middle of the room was standing a tall long red-haired Uzumaki. "Hmm now that I changed my appearance , what name should I take? Hmm... yeah! I got it! I know the perfect name for me! I shall be Uzumaki Naoki, and to make the things look more credible, I shall use the third's Uzukage cloak and mask. The only problem would remain my voice, but I'll make it sound thicker." said Naruto as he exited the mansion with the appearance of the third Uzukage.

Meanwhile, these 7months in Konoha

Things haven't changed too much, except a few: a boy named Sai replaced Naruto's place, Kakashi started being even more late, Sasuke usually went with Kakashi to the Memorial Stone, although they both stayed a bit away from the stone, gazing at the ground in shame, Jiraiya paused writing Icha-Icha for the last months and abandoned searching Naruto, thinking that he was truly dead. The parties in the village still continued, especially on the 10th of October. The older shinobi looked in shame at the civilians, while a few anbu started guarding Naruto's appartment .

Back with Naruto

"It will pass some time until I come back here, so until next time Uzushiogakure! Your forth Uzukage will be back." Naruto said as he exited the Village. He started running through the dense forest leaving Uzushiogakure behind. Soon, after only fifteen minutes, he reached the cliff and found the boat in its place. He left Whirlpool Country and headed to Fire Country. He used the same method to escape the whirlpools with the rasengans and continued sailing towards Fire Country. He reached the border of the Fire Country at noon and continued running towards Konoha and at sunset he entered Otafuku Gai. "Hmm. I should sleep here tonight and spend the next day with information retrieving. I wonder what Konoha was up to while I was gone. " he said as he entered the village looking for a place where he could sleep.

Next Day

Naruto was walking through the village full of people. It seemed like no one recognised his appearance, like almost everyone forgot about the Uzumaki, especially about Uzushiogakure and Naoki. "Everyone forgot so easily about the Uzumaki... especially Fire Country... They were allied... It so makes my blood boil..." Naruto said as he walked. He heard many people talk about the fact that the hokage announced the village about yondaime's son. "So Tsunade-obachan has announced everyone about my heritage. It seems that the villagers are too stubborn to believe that." "Did you even expect them to believe it? They are stupid enough to think that you are Kyubi himself not its host.." "Yeah... I know..." thought Naruto sadly. "I should go and complete the task so I can train and become stronger. Now that I am a missing nin," he said as he drew a scratch on his headband."I will be an easy target for the ones who are looking for you Kyubi" he said as he started running towards Konoha.

Later near Konoha

"Hmm... I have never seen it before. Over the village is a dome... and the chakra flowing through the dome goes back to... Ow fuck , I should have seen it/expected it... This is the ultimate form of security. Anything gets into or out of the village and has chakra is immediately seen. Now... how do I get in the village without being caught... Kyubi, any ideas?" "Brat this is a tough one... I think I got it...What if you supress your chakra to the minimum and then henge into a bird?" "Ok...? But how do I supress my chakra?" "... I forgot you have the knowledge of a civilian... Try to send all your chakra in your stomach at the seal." Naruto nodded and did so. "Henge!" he said as he transformed into a bird. He passed through the dome and landed in a tree. Imediatly several anbu members arrived at the place and searched for the chakra who passed through the dome, but they didn't notice anything except a few birds . Still on guard, they left the place searching for the intruder. "We got through!" Naruto said canceling the henge. Naruto started running through dark allies towards the cemetery.

As the sun was going down, a man alone in the cemetery could be seen searching for something. He created multiple clones and took five bodies from their respective tombs and ran in a forest near the graveyard. He put the bodies down and started to work. He created several rods and implated them in the first body, while his clones did the same thing. As he wanted to start the process of the using them as his paths, he felt a huge wave of killing intent. He looked in front of him and paled. He saw a ghost. Kyubi growled in his cage. In front of his cage was the one who sealed him, Shinigami himself. " What is Shinigami doing here?! What has the brat done?! ". Naruto was shaking. "Wh-hh-hh-hh-o a-rr-e y-o-o-u?"asked Naruto. "Ask Kyubi. He surely knows " Naruto was now white. This ghost knew who he was. "Oh... so he was the one who told me to make the braat go to Uzushiogakure " thought Kyubi. "Of course I know! What do you expect from the great god of death , Shinigami? " "THE DEATH GOD!? What's he doin' here … Is he mad about using their bodies?" "No boy. I'm actually glad you're using them. Especially the ones you just chose. So I will make you a gift. I shall give them their minds , memory and consciousness. They will be again alive at about 2 hours after you finish making them your bodies." "REALLY? SO I WILL BE ABLE TO TALK WITH MY PARENTS?" yelled Naruto , who felt entirely happy for the first time in his life. " Oh boy... you sound like one of those idiot banshee fangirls... " "Excuse me Shinigami-sama ( At this Kyubi had his jaw on the ground. The brat was once in his life polite!) " bowed Naruto. Shinigami raised an eyebrow. " Kyubi, it seems that the brat did not know about the word polite until now. You are in deed special Namikaze Uzumaki Senju Uchiha Naruto. I shall leave now. As Shinigami I have a lot to do. I will see you again for the sixth body. Until then!" said Shinigami as he faded away.

"WAAAAIT WHAAAAT?!Did he actually say Uchiha?!" both Naruto and Kyubi thought at the same time. "I guess that explains how he got the rinnegan. The sage had to sons that founded two clans: Uchiha and Senju. One inhereted from his father the eyes and will of obtaining peace through power, while the other inhereted his physical power and willof obtaining peace through love and understanding. You are an Uzumaki, who were distant relatives with the Senjus , so this way you are a Senju, but Uchiha...?! Maybe from your father's, but I'll guess your parents will tell you about it. Now finish the process and go and find the Naka Shinre. By the way, there are two chakras aproaching fast. They will be here in five minutes." Naruto nodded and told the clones to move faster. Realising he hasn't got enough time he made the clones hide in the bushes as he stood in the graveyard facing the entrance, waiting for the two chakras to appear. He didn't wait too long as two Anbu appeared.

" Who are you and what are you doing here? " said the taller one.

…

…

…

" I am speaking to you! Answear! " he order, anger clear in his voice.

" Umm.. you were talking to me?" Naruto asked.

The two Anu sweatdropped. ' We've got a copy of Kakashi here' "Who are you and what are you doing here?" repeated the other anbu.

" As for who I am, my name is Uzumaki Naoki. As for what am I doing here? I think I am looking at my daughter's grave... Sad... My last sibling.. " the man with the cloak said.

The two anbu widened their eyes. ' He's talking about Kushina-sama! Is he really his father!?'

" You won't mind me borrowing her, do you? " he said mischeviously.

" Whaaat?"

Naruto vanished and appeared right behind them. "Guys, do you have any idea where can I find the Naka Shinre?" "Is he talking about the Uchiha's tablet?" said one of the anbu. "YOU IDIOT!" yelled the other anbu. Both of the fell to the ground with a rasengan in their back. "Sorry guys. Don't worry, I didn't kill you, after all I still want to protect Konoha" Naruto said as he went to the bushes where his clones finished the job. The clones puffed out of existence and he started running towards the Uchiha compound. He started searching through the lifeless compound. Suddenly a voice came behind him.

" Stop right there!" he froze in that spot knowing whose voice was. " What are you doing here in the Uchiha compound?" Sasuke asked.

" My my … still arogant you Uchihas..." the cloaked man mocked

" How dare you insult my clan!?"

The cloak man chuckled. "I have just realised that saying that, I have insulted myself"

Sasuke widened his eyes. "WHAAT!?Are you an Uchiha!?"

"As far as I am concerned to know, yes."

"You don't look like one! I don't believe you!" Sasuke seethed as he activated his Mangekyou Sharingan.

" Trust me, I don't believe it either, but the one who told me, surely did not lie. Hmm, that's not the normal Sharingan." recognised the cloaked man.

" It's my Mangekyou Sharingan. To active it, I have done the most stupid thing in my life. " Sasuke said as shame could be seen in his eyes.

"Such a sudden change in his personality. I am wondering what's he talking about... And that would be?" asked the man.

"Killing my best friend..." Sasuke said dropping his head in shame.

"Naruto Uzumaki?" "Ow fuck, me and my big mouth!" "Brat wait... Take him with you! He might be useful! I mean very useful..." "Well... Idon't know … You might be right... Well, I shall see..."

" Yeah him!" Sasuke said as he raised an eyebrow. "How do you know him? And again who are you?"

" My name is Uzumaki Naoki, the Sandaime Uzukage of Uzushiogakure"

" Your name is Uzumaki too... Are you a clan?"

"Well... more exactly we were. I don't have enough time to talk about that. As for how do I know him, to find out we have to make a deal."

"What kind of deal?" asked Sasuke.

"You have the chance to meet him and train with him in exchange for your leaving Konoha and giving me the Naka Shinre. Don't worry, it will still be yours, I only ask to give it to me long enough for me to read it and then I will give it back to you."

Sasuke thought about it. "If he truly is an Uchiha he has the right of seeing the tablet, but more than sure, he won't be able to read it."

" I have a few questions: 1. Why do I have to leave the village? 2. How do I know you are not lying?"

"First, this way you will be able to find out the truth about the brother. Second, simply, you don't. But think about it, I am alone, you have the Mangekyou, you can always leave."

"Hmm, fair enough. Now , let's leave fast until anyone notices." Sasuke said.

"Playing the game called "The pride of Uchiha"? Good thinking brat. You made me proud" Naruto could feel Kyubi smirking in his cage.

They left the village the same way Sasuke left the village 6 moths before.

Time skip, two hours

The cloak man was silent all the way and the silence made Sasuke feel ankward.

"Sasuke?"

"How do you know my name!?" "His voice is different now! It seems somehow familiar... Where have I heard this voice before?

"The time for me to respect the first part of the deal has come." he said as he took his mask offand dropped the henge.

" Y-y-y-o-o-ouu look lllike Narrruto!"

" Glad to see you again Sasuke-teme." he said with a smirk.

" You you you realllly are Nnnaruto! But how? What happened to your eyes?" asked Sasuke with his jaw on the ground. "Wait... What the ?! How is it that are you an Uchiha?!"

" Easy Sasuke! In order, yes I really am, I survived because of my eyes, I awakened the rinnegan and yes I am an Uchiha, I do not know how , I shall ask my parents as we meet them in ….5...4...3...2...1..." Naruto said as five people appeared.

As they reached the ground and walked behind Naruto, they suddenly started to shake. After a few seconds, they dropped to the widened his eyes realising who they were." I-i-i-impossible... Shodaime... Nidaime... Sandaime... Yondaime..." Sasuke was close to fainting.

"Yeah... for the moment, they are just mindless bodies, but they soon should start to talk." told Naruto as he sat down.

" Aaargh... wh... wha...what haaappend Minato?" groaned Kushina.

At this point Sasuke fainted.

" I..i..i have got no idea... The last thing I remember is sealing Kyubi... By the way... Where is our son!?" told Minato.

" Right here tou-san." told Naruto calmly.

" That is not possible! My baby was just born! My son has blue eyes!" yelled Kushina.

" You look like Naruto-kun except the whisker marks." told Hiruzen.

" Hiruzen-sama? You are here too?" asked Minato.

" Yes Hiruzen is here. Me and Hashirama are also here." told an emotionless Tobirama.

"What!? All the Hokages?" yelled in surprise Hashirama.

" Hmm... Those eyes... are the rinnegan. I think this has something to do with the fact that we are alive." told Tobirama. " Wait! We all have the rinnegan! I think we are under his control. Is this one of the powers of the eyes of the Sage?"

" Let me explain. But first, Old Man, you hurt me... You didn't recognise me..." teased Naruto with his genuine smile.

" You...you... you really are Naruto-kun!" said Hiruzen with his eyes widened. " He really is your son! But I don't have any idea how he gained the rinnegan."

" How many years have passed since we died?" asked a saddened Minato.

"13 years tou-san... 13 damned years..." he said, a single tear leaving his eyes. " But first let me tell you my story so you can answer your own question.

As they all sat down, Naruto started his started his story , but not before Sasuke woke up. He told them how the villagers hated him, how he never had friends, about the mobs that beat him util he was half-dead, how they refused to sell him anything, or sell him expired food at double price, except Ichiraku, how they all glared at him, how he was neglected everywhere, and so on.

" I ..i...i can'tbelieve! Naruto suffered this much? I thought my life was the worst... He truly got the short stick..." thought Sasuke in shame.

Kushina was close to crying. " Naruto you have suffered this much … I am so sorry for this..." said Kusina. Minato was gazing in shame at the ground, Hashirama was thinking about how the village has changed that much since his death, while Hiruzen was blaming himself for his huge mistakes.

" Kaa-san, don't worry. I'm not stupid... I know you had your reasons and now to continue my story..." he said as he started telling them about team seven, about Kakashi's lateness (Minato and Kushina smiled as they remembered Kakashi's genuine lateness and porn reading). He told them about the chunin exams and made a pause so that the Sandaime Hokage would tell about Orochimaru and his fight and about his atempt of destroying Konoha. After that, Naruto told about how Sasuke tried to leave the village, about how he apparently died, how he was a step away from death and awoke rinnegan.

"So you awoke the rinnegan on the verge of death..." said Tobirama.

"Yep..." he answered as he continued with the story up to the present. "Now, I think we should get moving." told Naruto as he stood up.

"Where to?" asked Hashirama.

"Uzushiogakure" answered Naruto.

"So you hate Konoha and want to destroy it..." said Tobirama.

"Not really. I hate the foolish civilians that despite knowing the truth can't get rid of their hatred. In deed, I won't return to Konoha, at least not soon. Still, I will help them from the shadows. We'll form a little group. Our purpose will be obtaining true peace. We'll have to hide. Sasuke, we'll find the truth about Itachi, I guess the Old Man here can tell us the truth about him, right Old Man?" Hiruzen shivered slightly and sighed. He knew he'll have to confess, but he hoped that not so soon. "Yes, Naruto-kun.." he answered saidly.

"Now, Sasuke, do you want to stay with us?"

"Well... I don't know what to say... I think I've got nothing to lose... Wait a second, again, how is it that you're an Uchiha?" asked a curious Sasuke.

"Yeah, why tou-san? I know the Uzumakis were closely related to the Senjus, so that's why I'm a Senju and an Uzumaki. But why I'm also an Uchiha?"

"Well, I guess one of my parents was an Uchiha, or related to an Uchiha. They never told me anything about it. By the way Naruto, when we'll get in Uzushiogakure, I'll tell you the truth about what really happened 13 years ago." told Minato

"Ok. Now, Sasuke back to my question, do you want to stay with us?"

"Ok.. fine. I'll stay with you. You're an Uchiha so we might be relatives."

"Ok. Since the thing are set. From today on, I will be Uzumaki Naoki, the third Uzukage. Sasuke choose your name."

But before Sasuke could say anything, Tobirama said: "Kagami Uchiha. He was a member of my squadron, who had one of the strongest will of fire I could have ever seen."

"Wait... I think I heard that name somewhere... I got it! He was Uchiha Shisui's dad." realised Hiruzen.

"Shisui was Itachi's best friend. Wait! You all get to be Kage's! Why can't I too?!" asked Sasuke.

"Kagami would have been the third Hokage if he hadn't died along with me." Tobirama answered sadly.

"Ok... fine... I'll be Kagami Uchiha."

Meanwhile, in Orochimaru's base

"So Sasuke fled from Konoha... exactly when I was going to get him..." said angrily Orochimaru.

"Orochimaru-sama, I heard he awaked the Mangekyou." told Kabuto.

"I-i-impossible... We've got to get him as soon as possible! He'll soon get as strong as his brother, Itachi... I can't believe it. The last pair of sharingan is slipping through my hands... I already failed with Itachi... Sasuke-kun, don't be afraid. Your eyes will still be mine!" Orochimaru said as he started laughing evily.

Well, that's it for today... it seems that it doesn't matter how I try, I can't make the Chapters longer.

In the last 2 chapters, I've tried my best not to overpower Naruto. A fanfiction who has a smart/ dark/powerful character tends to overpower that character and if that happends, either the story becomes boring, either finishes too fast.

alexandruvful: I really can't wait for the Champions League final tonight! I hope Bayern Munchen will win!

Naruto: Heh, like that would really even happen... Dortmund will clearly win!

alexandruvful: Fuck you! I swear! If Dortmund wins, I'll pair you with Sasuke!

Naruto: Oh no... You wouldn't!

alexandruvful: And Naruto came behind Sasuke and kissed him on his neck...

Naruto: NO! NO! NO!

alexandruvful: Hehe... You better pray to Kami or who you believe in that Bayern wins...

'ntil next time!
