"What!" exclaims the present Kazekage.
Naruto, though outside seems to be calm and collected, but inside he is truly pissed off. The blonde hair leader then calls the previous group inside his office. "Kiba! Chouji! Shino! Lock down all the gates. No one leave Konoha from this instant on! Neji! Hinata! I want you two to pinpoint Eiju's exact location! Sakura, I want you on stand by with the medic team in case one of us get injured! Shikamaru! Please give out an announcement to everyone that we are on lockdown. Ino, link everyone in this room up! Gaara, Tenten, Lee, Kakashi-sensei, Sasuke, you're with me. Itachi! Have your team patrol the borders. Anyone tries to leave, take them in or taken them down! I want all ANBUs patrolling the streets and protecting the people!"
The heroes can only stand on the side, yet again. The fury in Naruto's bright electric blue eyes paralyze the heroes' bodies. Seeing him give orders and bringing out tactics truly prove that the said man is one of the most powerful and strongest man to live on earth, both physically and mentally.
"Justice League," Naruto claims, "Young Justice. I hope you can hang around here for a while. I would like you to join, but because this is my city and home, it is my duty to protect. Please. Don't get involved."
Before any of the Justice Leaguers can protest, Batman cuts in, "If it was anything else Lord Hokage, I would agree. However, this matter involves Shadow Beast. Naruto-san, we may only have known Shadow Beast for a few months, but she had bonded with almost everyone in the league; especially the Young Justice. Your city or not, we are going to help you."
"He sure is being a hypocrite by saying that," Hawk Woman mutters to Superman; to only have him retorts back, "But that shows us how much Shadow Beast have change us."
Naruto gives the Bat a stern stare and then moves his gaze to the rest of the heroes to only find the same determination running through their eyes. Giving a sigh of defeat, Naruto then speaks up, "Alright. If you can, Hawk Woman-san, Green Lantern-san, Flash-san, Kid Flash-kun, please patrol the perimeters with the Akatsuki. They will show you the way. Martian Manhunter-san and Miss Martian-chan, please stay and help Ino connect mind link with everyone. Green Arrow-san, I believe you are good with long distance shooting. I hope you can follow my group from far and cover our back. Zatanna-chan, you are a magician correct? Then please come with my group; we might need you to create a barrier of sort to keep the damage inside. The rest of you, please join my group. We will be meeting up with my wife and her cousin."
"Naruto?" Hinata calls her husband telepathically, her voice rings throughout everyone's heads. "We found Eiju. However…"
Naruto then questions, "What happen Hinata?"
Sasuke, who has left along with the other ninjas a few minutes before, grunts out, "You aren't going to like it."
"Alright," the Prophecy Child agrees. "Everyone, let's move out."
Just as the tall man was about to open the door, the door suddenly pushes open; slamming right into the Hokage's face as a high pitched and childish voice rings out, "OJI-SAN!"
The heroes quickly take a step back, completely forgetting about the Hokage, and let the said blonde man fall on his back while holding his aching face. In a blur, a something dark pounces on the Hokage and lands on his chest. On top of the wincing man is a little girl, no older than 3, with beautiful bright grey eyes with no pupil, dark blue hair, and a line marking on both of her cheeks. The little girl continues to smack Naruto's cheek while questioning him, "Oji-san, whea is Tachi-ni? He was subbose to hewp me with my pwesent fow you!" (Grandfather, where is Brother Tachi? He was suppose to help me with my present for you!)
"Hinagiku?" groans Naruto as he stare at the little girl. "What are you doing here?"
"Hm?" the said child tilts her head sideway, her face submerge in confusion. "Oji-san?"
Most of the warriors are surprise that they can understand the little girl to such extent. Though it is soon explain to the foreigners why they were able to understand the girl.
"We have connected everyone's minds with each other, in which also allow us to break the language barrier between our groups," Martian Manhunter comments.
After regaining his strength, Naruto slowly sits up while holding onto the little girl. As the blonde man stands up, he gently carries the little girl on his hip, one hand supporting her buttocks while the other against her back.
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience," Naruto bows his head. "This is my granddaughter, Hinagiku. Hinagiku, say hello."
"Hewo!" exclaims the girl as she bounce on her grandfather's hip excitedly, "My name is Hinagiku Nara! I am de Hokage's gwanddaughta. Who o you peopo? You dwess weid!" (Hello! My name is Hinagiku Nara! I am the the Hokage's granddaughter. Who are you people? You dress weird!)
"What are you doing here Hinagiku?" Naruto reprimanded the little girl; "You're suppose to be with your mom and dad."
Hinagiku then whines while puffing her pink cheeks, "Demo, I want to see you!"
Naruto sighs, "Not now sweetheart. I'm busy. Besides, its not safe to be on the street right now."
Sighing, Hinagiku nods with her eyes looking down, "Okay."
Out of nowhere, the leader of the group call Akatsuki appears in the room.
"There you are Hinagiku," Itachi retorts as he takes Hinagiku out of the Hokage's arms. "I have been looking everywhere for you. I'm sorry for not watching her carefully, Lord Hokage."
"Neh Tachi-nii!" the dark blue hair girl asks, "Why don't you call Oji-san Oji-san? Why do you call him Hokage? He is ouw Oji-san you know."
Ignoring Hinagiku's comment, Itachi bows, "I will take her home and continue my patrol."
The young lad then disappears before Naruto can say anything. Naruto stays silent for a while, his mind racing with different thoughts. After a while, Naruto then states, "We must take action. Everyone to their station please."
