Author notes:
Time to answer some reviews:
dynomike88 read this from the last chapter 'about a mile ahead, which is quite a feat considering that the Byakugan at her age shouldn't have more than five hundred meters range.' (from when Kurenai was giving the report from the wave mission) and pointed out that I used imperial system (U.K or U.S.- mile) followed by the metric one (meters). I have to admit that I am from a country where we use metric as standard and have very little contact with the imperial. Though I tried to use the imperial one more since most people who read NotS are from the U.S. I am also prone to mistakes.
Know that for me I use it more like approximations of the metric measurements like so: REMEMBER THAT THIS IS WHAT I USE FOR MY FIC.
1 inch = 2.5 cm
1 foot = 0.3 meters
1 mile = 1.6 km
1 pound = 0.5 kg
College6Jazz – Ah, nice to see that people didn't forget about the other legendary summoning scrolls but they won't be revealed until a little later. The bird one (though most people probably guessed what creature that was) will be revealed during the Chuunin exams finals before the invasion. The other one will be during the invasion.
Legionary Prime – If you want a story similar to Road to Ninja read my other fic called Light of the Lost though right now it is a work in progress.
BlasterFaster – No the names for the dragons are not related to the Rage of Bahamut game (intentionally). They are taken from mythology more since Tiamat is a Babylonian goddess of chaos usually presented in the form of a sea serpent or dragon. Though my own version is more related to the Dungeons and Dragons version though she is neither good nor evil but more like a force of nature. Fafnir is taken from Norse mythology and was a dwarf that was so ill-natured and greedy that he turned into a dragon (symbol of greed), though the only similarity between the mythological one and my Fafnir is the name and nothing else.
Anybody who flames with 'The council wouldn't let Naruto make a fool of them!' or 'This is such bullshit!", I will answer with my middle finger straightened out of my fist and by blowing you a raspberry. This is my story! If you don't like it, well nobody is perfect.
This chapter is a council bashing one.
This chapter hasn't been BETA-ed.
Previously on NotS:
"Now let me get this straight Jijii. You want us, rookie Gennin to join the most elite shinobi of the village and perform possibly dangerous assignments while keeping our identities a secret from everyone." Naruto questioned.
"And Sasuke-kun already agreed to this?" Hinata continued.
The Hokage nodded. "Now I know that it is a lot to take in so I am giving you some time to think about it."
"I have just one question Jijii." the blonde expressed looking at Hinata and pausing for the dramatic effect before returning to the old man and grinning ."Where do we sign up?"
Hiruzen had Anko style beady blinking eyes before they all broke into a chuckle. "I should have expected that!" the Kage said in between laughs.
Main story:
The people inside the mansion finished their respective discussions leaving only the blond together with Hiruzen to work out the details of the ANBU deal. After about an hour they finished the talks and Naruto offered to escort the man to the gate before keying him for the shield.
Once outside the walls they said their goodbyes and were about to part when an ANBU agent appeared.
"Hokage-sama, the Administration Council requests your presence for an out of schedule meeting in one hour. Uzumaki-san is to come as well."
Hiruzen sighed. Ever since Naruto pulled the chicken on him, he became more authoritative but he couldn't help think 'I'm too old for this shit!' He turned to the ANBU and nodded.
The said agent bowed and then Shunshined away. Hiruzen swayed his head from side to side in disbelief. He knew that only the civilian council had summoned the meeting as usual but the aged Kage couldn't stop himself from wondering what the fuck they wanted now.
"They probably saw the report concerning the recent mission. No doubt Danzo was the one who brought the attention to your former teammates and they just had to call the rest of the howler monkey pack. No offense Jijii." (A/N: Sarutobi has "Saru" in his name which means 'monkey'. He also has the monkey summon contract.)
The Hokage chuckled "None taken. You are probably right but you still can't help but wonder what goes on through their minds."
Naruto smirked "What else but power and money. They want as much as they can get of both. But concerning today's council gathering, they probably want to know about Haku and Meian-chan. And I'll bet my whole account that Danzo will go with the usual 'They (Haku & Naruto) must be trained properly so I will sacrifice my precious time to make sure of that!' bullshit if given the chance, which is: no way in hell. And concerning Meian-chan, well I guess it will be a free for all on the arguments as to why I shouldn't own such a powerful weapon."
Hiruzen sighed at how much sense the blond made "Indeed."
Naruto put a hand on his shoulder. Hiruzen turned to the blond and began sweating. The boy was grinning like a homicidal maniac "Let them try and get ready for a good show. I know every law of this village and country by heart, old or new. I just need you to declare from the beginning that the laws will be respected with no 'ifs and buts' as you are well within your rights to do so. I also have a few nasty surprises for them. Ku, ku, ku, ku!" rubbing his hands together.
"That I will." the Kage nodded.
"And remember, this village is a military dictatorship not a freakin' republic. Civilians are allowed to stay here only if they follow the rules. And the first and foremost rule is that the Hokage is the leader, the chief, the boss, the big honcho, the rule maker. If they don't like it they can piss-off to another place. The council, especially the civilian one, was formed to lessen your workload, not to take your place. It is neither a necessity nor an obligation, but a privilege. One that the Hokage, or the Daimyo are more than in tittle to cancel at a whim." Naruto encouraged the man.
The old Kage chuckled "If it were only that easy. The council has, in time it has 'served', gained political power that is not to be taken lightly."
"Like?" the boy raised an eyebrow.
"Well, for starters they have a lot of financial backing." the Hokage explained.
"You're kidding right? Remember my 'funds'?" Naruto smirked and Hiruzen mentally face-palmed himself.
"And they gained sufficient power to overrule me. They could lock me out of office." Hiruzen swayed his head.
"According to regulation 74/SE*, only the Shinobi or the High councils can call something like that and only if the Jounin majority is with them, and they aren't. Not to mention that they would have to pass this by the Daimyo's consideration. Those fat civilian pigs can't do jack-shit about it! Sorry for the language." Naruto pushed his opinion.
"And that is the final problem Naruto. Most of them have the Daimyo's backing. It wou-"
The boy interrupted smirking "Not as much as you and I."
"What?" asked the surprised Sarutobi.
"I know the man personally. Don't ask me how or why, it will be revealed at a later time. All you must know is that the man cares most for five things: money, honor and most importantly his friends, family and country. The first one I secured it since I have enough of it to bury the civilian council alive and it wouldn't even scratch my wallet. The second and third also secured since… well you saw how Shinji-san reacts when she sees me right?" Naruto scratched the back of his head while smiling gaining an equal expression from the man who nodded, realizing that the boy didn't lie when he said that he knew the ruling family.
"And the fifth is your part. You are a war hero and a powerful man. Who do you think that the Daimyo will listen to? Those whining pricks or to the man known as the Professor or better yet Shinobi no Kami (God of Shinobi), the man who kept his country safe since before he was born hmm?"
Hiruzen had to feel a little embarrassed. It had been a while since somebody had called him that and to be honest it felt good. That is he had to do that after picking his jaw off the floor considering how much the speech made sense.
"Ha-ha! I haven't heard that title in a long time. Twenty years I think." the old man blushed.
Naruto sighed "Face it Jijii, the only thing those bastards can do now is up your paperwork load but I fixed that little 'problem' for you years ago"
"I get it Naruto but I'm just too old for these messes." Hiruzen cried anime tears.
Naruto smiled sadly before a 200W LED appeared above his head. "Speaking of twenty years…" he said while grabbing Hiruzen's left hand with his right and placing the thumb and the middle fingers on the man's forehead as wide apart as he could.
"Nani? (What?)" was all that the Hokage could ask before a Ranpu aura began to appear around both of them.
Naruto began channeling a lot of Ranpu chakra, directing it to all of the aged Kage's cells. Just as he felt he had done that, he flared even more of it as the light around them grew in intensity and then the boy opened his mouth "Aaaahhhh… 'Ranpu: Wakagaeri no Jutsu!'" (Light Release: Rejuvenation Technique) with the luminosity reaching a blinding peak before receding like it never existed.
The blond was panting a little before the surprised Kage.
"Naruto, what happened? What did you do?" Hiruzen asked.
Naruto panted for ten seconds more before his reserves were brought to a more manageable amount by Kurama.
"Whew, that was tiring as hell!" Naruto snickered. "To answer your questions Jijii, that was a technique I created after I read some theories on ageing. It is said that the main cause of ageing related effects are caused by a build-up of, for the lack of a better term, useless cells in a body that the said organism can't expel. They take up place inside the body that newer, healthy cells could use. Thus body functions cease to work properly and we feel what is known as getting old. Now… I used my Ranpu and Iryo-nin (medic) abilities to create a jutsu that would 'seek and destroy' those cells and also vitalize healthy tissue thus improving your system." explained the Medic-mode blond.
Hiruzen looked at him like he was from a different planet causing the boy to sweat-drop. "In simple terms, this jutsu has made you 25 to 35 years younger in body. I couldn't de-wrinkle your skin since that is a different body function but that could be easily fixed with a couple of hot-spring visits and a cream made of a couple of herbs to stimulate the production of collagen and such- oops! I almost started med-rambling again." Naruto confessed with a hand to the back of his head and his tongue out.
The old man looked as if he found the next five editions of Icha Icha. Could it really be true? Could he actually be younger? He had to be because he felt like a million ryo!
Naruto noticed this and smirked "So, how do you feel?"
Sarutobi took a moment or two to clear his head. He felt like jumping around like a hyperactive kid on a sugar overdose but years of experience and wisdom kept his composure intact. He returned the boy's smirk with one of his own and answered in a smooth fashion but laced with power and confidence "Perfect."
The blond smiled and closed his eyes before kneeling on one leg with his a fist on the ground "Long live the protector of the Will of Fire, the Sandaime Hokage and the one and only Shinobi no Kami!" he stated barely higher than a whisper in a show of respect.
Hiruzen's smirk remained but it was also accompanied by grandfatherly eyes as he set a hand on the boy's head.
Forty-five minutes later…
Hiruzen walked into the dreaded council room. Dreaded because every time the old man finished dealing with them he needed so many aspirins that he was afraid he might die from an overdose. But this time it was different. No. It was the same, the same as it was years ago when his power was looked at with awe and envy. The oh so nosy civilian drones who were busy talking amongst themselves turned to greet the 'old' man with their usual whines but this time something made their words stick to their throats and refuse to come out.
Sarutobi Hiruzen entered without hesitation. His stance showed no more weaknesses and his presence seemed to slow down time itself. The people inside the room were left bug-eyed and their jaws unhinged. Not a word was shared anymore, not a breath was taken without difficulty. It was like they were afraid that their heartbeats were an annoyance to the man as that sound was the only thing that was heard in slow motion: 'Bum-bum'… 'Bum-bum'. Each heart cycle was shared by Hiruzen's steps. His being spelled power and his face was terrifying.
But the scariest things were his eyes. The 'old' man didn't even bother to spare them a glance. He walked at a normal pace but to the dilated senses of even the untrained civilian council it felt like an eternity as his gaze was only on his destination at the top-most throne-like chair. Only three people in the room recognized that stare. They were the ones occupying the seats closest to the one mentioned earlier. Of course they were none other than Homura, Koharu and Danzo. It was the piercing, steel-hard gaze of the man who survived three great Shinobi Wars, at the end of the first becoming the Third Fire Shadow. It was something that many enemies saw as their last visage in the mortal plane. And for them it subconsciously spelled only one thing 'We're fucked!'
As the Hokage took his seat everyone let loose a breath they didn't even realize that they had been holding. A flinch followed as Hiruzen let his eyes escape the shadow of the Hokage's hat and rolled around, scanning, analyzing the council men and women. He then let loose a breath of his own when he saw that the Shinobi Council had barely half of the seats occupied as Hiashi Hyuuga, Nara Shikaku, Mikoto Uchiha and Shibi Aburame were missing, no doubt being announced as late as possible. Even though technically he was now younger his thoughts still couldn't release themselves from the classic 'I'm too old for this shit!' train, before sinking his gaze inside the shadows once more.
One of the civilian councilmen was the first to break the silence by clearing his throat. "Since the council has gathered we should commence-"
"Denied!" Hiruzen answered, his volume barely higher than normal but reverberating with incredible authority. "The council has not gathered. Half of the Shinobi Council has still to arrive and the time has not expired. Even if it will expire, we shall wait!"
The present Shinobi Council members smirked as the Civilian Council started shifting and whispering between themselves.
"Please be reasonable Hokage-sama! I'm sure that everybody in this room can use the time in more productive ways." the same member tried to argue.
The Hokage then pointed his piercing gaze at the man who felt like he was becoming smaller and smaller as the moments passed by, underneath the powerful eyes of Sandaime until he was nothing more than a speck of dust looking at a mountain. "Then maybe we should cancel this meeting right here, right now Shitake-san (A/N: Mushroom. Couldn't resist! Read bottom A/N for description.). Like you said, I have better things to do than to listen to pointless arguments and to try to placate them. If not I suggest that you and the rest of this council follow my commands in silence unless you want to share something vital or I explicitly say otherwise."
The civilians started whispering between themselves, some even going higher in the volume. That is until they felt something powerful but not KI. No. It was similar to a bottled-up hurricane slowly rising in power, ready to explode. It was Hiruzen. "I said in silence!" he commanded again with more authority than ever.
The room became deathly quiet once again. How couldn't it? Even a pin dropping on the floor would not dare share a sound in fear of the mighty Kage's tone.
Before the time limit was exceeded the other Shinobi Council members arrived, some of them panting a little that showed that they were in a hurry to get here. The old man let them get comfortable before clearing his throat.
"Very well, now we can proceed with the meeting!"
Shitake followed the man's example and coughed lightly. "Understood. We shall begin with some concerning issues regarding Gennin squad seven's mission to Nami no Kuni. We have called Uzumaki Naruto to the proceedings but it appears that he has defied us. I su-"
Before the man could even finish his sentences he felt strangled by a pulse of KI coming from Hiruzen who had an absolutely annoyed look on his face. "First of all Shitake-san, you speak of defiance when clearly you are no better than your own description."
"N-nani?" said the mushroom-man.
"You will stand up when addressing me with any form of request or issue using the proper title and suffix!" Hiruzen ordered clearly daring the man to fight back but his dare was unmet since Shitake's body automatically responded to the authority behind the Kage's words and shot to a vertical position.
"M-my apologies Hokage-sama!" Shitake bowed deeply gaining a nod from the village ruler.
The same ruler then explained "Uzumaki Naruto is waiting patiently outside the meeting room to be summoned inside as is proper etiquette. Something a lot of you seem to have forgotten or simply ignored." He stared daggers in the civilian council members who gulped deeply. "ANBU, call in Naruto!"
The guard agent bowed and then proceeded to follow the order. In less than ten seconds he returned with Naruto who was now sporting his newest attire that was composed of a dark orange long coat with three tails and a snake like pattern on the right side, reinforced black leather jacket with a palm leaf pattern, a very dark blue silk shirt with a pleated silk satin stock of the same color. Over his legs he wore a loose dark blue reinforced leather pair of pants that had silk satin underneath for comfort and dark brown riding boots that included shin guards and had straps on the highest most points. The toe region was made of an extremely durable but light material. The soles were the highest quality ninja material with special chakra channeling materials. All the clothes already sported Naruto's standard seal-set (temperature regulation, repair, color change & clean, shielding) but that part was hidden from sight. (I based 90% on Virgil's clothing from 'Devil May Cry' with different colors).
The way Naruto entered showed defiance but also respect and power. He didn't so much as flinch at the sight of the council, not even sparing a glance at the sneering civilians as he stood in the designated place but he did bow to the Hokage and nodded a greeting to the Shinobi Councilors who returned the gesture.
Shitake took the stand once again "Uzumaki Naruto, we of the council have called you here to ask you some questions regarding your recent mission to the Land of Waves."
Naruto turned his head towards the councilor in a questioning fashion but before the man could speak again Naruto raised his hand signaling him to stop or wait. The blond then turned to the Hokage with a raised eyebrow and nodded a message.
Hiruzen then took over the discussion "Before the Council begins questioning one of my shinobi, I should tell you that during this and future procedures under my rule will be conducted following each and every law of Konoha with no exceptions or second chances. If you are unsure of the consequences of your actions then I recommend that you do not follow through with them! Are there any questions?" he spoke emphasizing each underlined word with a Kage-level blast of KI. Each member shook his head from side to side rapidly. "Good! Proceed."
"As I was saying, we of the council would like to question you about some… interesting and a few disturbing parts in your mission report. Understood Uzumaki?" Shitake sneered as he asked.
Naruto in turned glared at him so hard it almost made him soil his pants but the boy quickly turned to the rest of the council.
"Greetings Honored Council! I must ask the Shinobi Council, minus the High Council members to prolong the meeting after we have finished whatever business you have with me. Before I answer the question or those that follow, I must inform you that a good part of the answers are composed of classified information and thus I would be obliged to refuse to give them unless ordered to by my direct superiors." Naruto confessed and got smiles from the Shinobi Council including the Hokage and minus the Elder Council while the rest merely cringe-like sneered.
"We are yo-"
"No councilor Haruno, you are not my superior. In this room there are only three… bodies that can order me. They being Hokage-sama, the Jounin Commander Shikaku Nara-san and the entire Shinobi Council, the later only through a vote of majority as stipulated in article no. 564/NE*. Quite frankly, by the same rules, only they are allowed to question me as well. Please keep that in mind." the boy explained while smirking, earning a growl from the woman that could make the Kyuubi jealous.
The Hokage chuckled inwardly (as did the rest of the clan heads) before speaking again "Naruto is correct councilor however I trust all my shinobi with their judgment concerning the need to know protocol about their missions so I am allowing you the right to question him." Hiruzen explained and the greedy pigs smirked "However he still retains the right to refuse an answer should he deem it classified unless ordered to by me and the rest of the people mentioned earlier." and down came their smirks, crashing into the wall.
"That is… reasonable Hokage-sama." Shitake cursed inwardly. "Uzumaki, how accurate would you describe your mission report."
"About ninety-five percent accurate. The rest are highly classified details that are only for the Hokage to know about." the boy confessed earning raised eyebrows. "Also if I may ask, what happened to the Demon Brothers? Last time I saw them, they were pretty 'pissed'." the blond said with a smirk earning a few snickers from the shinobi side.
"I will tell you about them after the meeting Naruto." Hiruzen chuckled at the boy's choice of words.
"Hai. I would like to know their fate since my teammates and fellow shinobi were the ones who changed it, although it's their fault for hiding in such an obvious fashion. Geez, they would have had better chance of hiding in a 'puddle of piss'." Naruto stated with an emphasis on the last words earning louder chuckles from the shinobi side.
"Could we leave the urination puns and get back to our meeting objective?" Shitake asked the council and they all nodded. "Well then, we would like to ask you about Haku Yuki-san. Is it true that he possesses the Hyoton Kekkei-Genkai?" he questioned the 'brat' as the members of both sides of the council started whispering between themselves. Danzo was practically salivating.
"Normally councilor I would have full right to refuse to answer such a question since I was not in command of the mission. It should have been addressed to either Kakashi Hatake or Kurenai Yuhi. However, yes, it is true. He is the only known surviving member of the Yuki clan that was nearly wiped out in Kiri during the Bloodline Purge." Naruto sighed explaining before looking into the eyes of the civilian members and Danzo's and seeing their lust for power and their greed. He frowned "I know that look councilors and forget it! Haku is a political refugee even though he has Shinobi training and as such he is neither a prisoner nor does he have any allegiance to Konoha. Therefore he falls outside your power-hungry jurisdiction."
If looks could kill Naruto would be cold, cut and buried twelve feet under from the civilian's glares.
This time the boy smirked "And in case some shady people are listening to my words and plotting something behind the Hokage's back, let me warn you that the instant Haku is harmed or forced into anything, the Hokage and his shinobi will rain down vengeance upon you! Know the saying 'hell hath no fury like a woman scorned'? Well let me tell you 'hell hath no fury like an angry Hokage and a pissed-off Jinchuriki'! That goes for the lot of you power hungry backstabbing pack of howler monkeys." he said to the civilian side but lowering his head and narrowing his sight on Danzo who had the decency to look surprised.
"How dare you!" Haruno's hypersonic voice blasted off again with their water glasses braking from the high pitch wail. Everybody else in the room cringed and prayed that their eardrums did not rupture. "Apologize this instant, brat!" she kept on yelling with the shinobi thinking of killing her or at least sealing her vocal cords on charges of extreme phonic (noise) pollution.
Naruto on the other hand remained impassive like he was not even interested in her.
"DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME DE-!" she nearly slipped but Naruto got pissed and interrupted her but not before cracking a few windows and shaking the room with her voice at full power. The weakest members in the room were banging their heads on the table to lessen the pain inside their skulls.
"Yeah I heard you, ya' freakin' Banshee Queen! Me and everybody in Hi no Kuni! In fact I wouldn't be surprised if you scared Suna half to death. Sheesh! Pipe down will ya! Freakin' siren. Also, watch it! You nearly slipped concerning a certain law punishable by death." Naruto smirked and she boiled.
"HOW DARE Y-!" she wailed again but this time was stopped by the combined KI of all the shinobi members in the room and surprisingly a few civilians. Not surprisingly though, she passed out instantly, foaming at the mouth.
The rest of the council sighed in relief. Councilor Okumura* was the first resume speaking to the blond "Now your words were clearly disrespectful towards us but we will let it slide considering that councilor Haruno's actions were … very disturbing." gaining snickers from the Shinobi side. "Resuming our discussion and moving on. Another problem we want to question you about concerns a certain sword you used during the… gruesome execution of Gato's army. We request details about its functions and powers."
Naruto looked at him like he dared him to step out of line "Request denied because of previously stated reasons."
"You can't and will not deny us brat!" Shitake growled but sunk into his seat when he felt the Hokage's attention weigh him down. Above the village leader a huge executioner like figure was sharpening its axe on a rotating whetstone. The message above it read 'I warned you!'.
"I can and will deny you, you overgrown mushroom!" the blond growled back.
"How dare you! You will show proper respect to me brat!" Shitake slammed his hands on the table and rose up challenging the 'demon-brat' but was blasted into his chair by a pulse of KI that made his head and body jerk back feeling like he had been punched hard.
"I will show you respect when you have earned it paper-pusher! You have no right to order me around. I already warned you at the beginning but you refused to listen clearly showing how arrogant you and your pack of whining pansies have grown! I bet you haven't even punched someone in your life yet here you are thinking that you are above those who bleed and die so that you can live that worthless life of yours in safety and wealth. Remember this because this is your final warning: I am a Shinobi of Konoha! A military agent under the rule of the Hokage. The only thing you can order around is your bank account and civilian clerks, understand?" Naruto warned flaring his chakra until it was visible and then relaxing earning a terrified nod. Homura and Koharu were boiling inside and were about to blow their top but were beaten to the starting line by someone else.
Shibi Aburame who was watching the scene in mild amusement broke the ice by being the first one to speak for the shinobi council. "Your words contain much logic Uzumaki-san, but I must say I have many curious thoughts concerning the weapon. Would you be so kind as to share, so long as it is nothing concerning to the village's safety of course."
Naruto turned to the man and smiled "Please Aburame-san, call me Naruto since I have a good connection with your son (friendship in normal language)!" the boy asked and the man nodded, smiling ever so lightly. "And of course I would be willing to share with anyone who …" he let it float in the air turning to the civilians "… knows how to ask politely." and noticed them sneer like they stepped on something nasty.
The blond then made a grabbing motion in open air and just as he was squeezed his fingers into a fist Meian materialized herself, fading into existence in the boy's hand. Everybody in the room except the Hokage and Hiashi stared at the beautiful blade.
"Meian-chan's abilities are mostly linked to emotions and are represented by a color. The more powerful they are, the more powerful the result and the more intense the color. I will keep secret these abilities as it is my shinobi right, but know that Hokage-sama has full information concerning them." the boy explained more to the Shinobi council and noticed Bozo, I mean Danzo frown slightly. After all he didn't like anything kept secret from him. "Also she has two more abilities that are not related to emotions at all. They are represented by the colors black and white. These I am willing to share information about. When the blade turns black a powerful ability is unlocked. It coats the edge with chakra and compresses it so much that it becomes able to cut through the fourth dimension. An example of this would be to take a picture and cut it with a normal sharp knife but in this case the picture is everything in front of the blade tip. By all standards it is completely unstoppable… however, for every second the ability is activated the user must use three times as much chakra as Hokage-sama had in his prime. The 'cut' lingers for a maximum of three seconds and anything that moves into it is also damaged." he said earning gasps from the more emotional members of the council. "The second ability I must admit that I have yet to unlock its secrets." Naruto lied making some members raise their eyebrows. Truthfully he really didn't know what it did or how to power it but he did know that it made the Tentoukirite ability look like small change.
"May I ask wh-" said Shibi before he was interrupted.
"Hand over the blade boy!" Homura barked out but with composure worthy of his council seat.
Naruto turned to him with a light frown and a raised eyebrow "I beg your pardon?"
The man narrowed his eyes on the blond and spoke again "I said hand over the sword! Such a weapon clearly has no place in the hands of a Gennin!" he barked louder and Hiruzen who was beside him frowned and sighed.
Naruto growled internally and tried desperately to convince himself not to slice his head off his shoulders.
'Calm down kit! His time will definitely come!' Kurama tried to calm him down sensing his host's emotions.
It worked and Naruto took a deep breath before responding emotionlessly "I'm afraid that there are three problems with your claim."
"Such as?" Koharu intervened.
"One being that, since you are retired from active duty you have no right to order me to relinquish my weapon without the council's vote of majority or the Hokage's approval without being accused of treason against Konoha for weakening it's shinobi forces! Actually you have no authority whatsoever! You only have the right to advise Hokage-sama concerning certain decisions but absolutely no right to intervene in official business!" the boy explained and by now you could see the steam coming out of their ears. "Another problem is that Meian-chan is a sentient blade that chooses it's wielder for life. She will not cut anything in anybody else's hands." After these words Danzo began tightening his teeth so much that you could hear them crack.
"And finally Meian is soul-bound to me! Meaning it is a part of my very soul and cannot be separated anymore even if I desired it so. She has become a sort of Kekkei-Genkai for me and my descendants. They will each be able to summon her after and only if they gain her approval. Of course that doesn't mean that they will each have a sword if they win her favor but it will be more like taking turns." Naruto shot a toothy smirk at Homura who was mentally cursing everything he could think of. Danzo saw this as an opportunity but chose to refrain for now and wait for the civilians to finalize their claims.
"Anything else you wish to ask?" Naruto questioned the councilors.
Okumura nodded then glared at the boy "There one final matter. I have been informed that you recently came into possession of a rather considerably large sum of money. We wish to question you about its source after which we will decide if it should be confiscated or not since there is some suspicion of illegal business considering the fact that you have no known background for it to be an inheritance." the smug pig grinned.
Naruto looked at him like he wanted to make barbeque out of this fat ass but Kurama convinced him not to, telling him that even a Bijuu would probably get food poisoning from that rotten tub of lard.
"There is nothing to discuss!" Naruto sighed with his eyes closed as the eyes of the civilians grew bloodshot with greed thinking that they have won. "I do wish to tell you that touching one ryo without my approval would lead to your immediate banishment for thievery and charged a heavy fine, not to mention the compensation to the damaged party (Naruto). The reason I have nothing to say to you is because of the fact that I am still a military operative and such my business and actions are classified. Should you poke your nose in them, not only will it mean treason which is rewarded with a death sentence, but also would be an insult to the Fire Daimyo as all operations in this village are directly linked to him. You can file for declassification but it must be approved by both the current Jounin Commander Shikaku Nara-san and Intelligence Division Head Inoichi Yamanaka-san. If not then you can bypass this by requesting it directly from the Hokage." the blond grinned smugly and crossed his arms but a 300W light bulb appeared above his head "Oh and I almost forgot. How, pray tell, did you know about my funds?"
"I am the manager of the bank." the fat pig cringed as he was already angry at his previous loss to the 'demon'.
'Got'cha!' the boy thought "I see. Did everyone else hear that?" he asked and gained a full deck of nods.
Shitake was the first to puzzle "What does it matter to you if we heard it?"
The boy now adorned his prankster grin. Although he didn't prank anybody in a long time that didn't mean he lost his touch. "Quite simple Mushroom…" he answered and the man was getting red with anger "… that information is strictly confidential. By all rights I should press charges against 'Piggybank' over there for revealing it or taking it directly to the owner of the bank directly. Either way, should I choose any, he would be fucked sideways by a five inch thick spiked dildo, if you get my point." said the blond making a very realistic impression of a troll-face meme.
"Also, concerning all future matters I have a little word of advice: Don't fuck with me!" He warned them with a demonic voice and red slit eyes while flaring his KI at ten percent intensity making the shinobi reach for their kunai or swords and some of the civilians froze in their seats while others fainted on the spot.
But of course one of them said the magic word "D-DEMON!" and he didn't even know when he died as Hiruzen struck him in the head with a kunai while Naruto separated his chest from his ass spraying blood all over the rest.
"ANBU!" Shitake yelled and two agents came inside the room "Kill… Kill him!" he said pointing at the boy who stood near the corpse with a cool expression. The two agents nodded between themselves and rushed the boy before jumping and aiming down with their tanto (short swords) drawn looking to kebab him. Naruto had by now activated Soujin Seishin and was viewing them in slow motion, sporting a murderous grin that would make Anko proud.
The rest of the civilian council was in absolute chaos and were running around like headless chickens. But they were halted a split second later by the combined aura and KI of the Hokage.
"ENOUGH! ANBU STAND DOWN!" he shouted an order came too late as the agents were but two feet away from the blond and couldn't redirect their blades in time. An adrenaline rush came over Hiruzen as he watched how the ANBU operatives were slowly inching closer to his grandson like figure who in turn was … smiling like it was Xmas?
When the two would be blond killers were but a foot away from the boy Naruto deepened his grin into an all-out smile and whispered "Boido Nami!*" (Void Wave!) and he was instantly surrounded by what appeared to be a paper-thin glass bubble that quickly glossed a bit before expanding outwards like the shockwave from an explosion before dissipating about five feet away and tearing and pushing everything away from Naruto. The air blast that followed made everyone in the room duck for cover as the dust and debris flew like shrapnel in every direction resulting in some minor cuts and bruises on the unfortunate civilian councilors that were in close range. It wasn't anything serious since most of it was pulverized by the technique itself.
When the dust settled the Hokage found the blond standing straight in the middle of a small crater in the concrete floor and the two ANBU were on the other side of the room looking worse for wear but by some miracle they were still breathing. Truthfully the damage was much less than the dramatic effects let on as it consisted only of two blown windows and the crater with the rest of the room now being a little dusty but intact.
Everybody was silent as they were looking at the boy who had a very pleased appearance. His expression soon changed into a serious one as he balled his left fist near his waist looking like he was holding something cylindrical before whipping his right arm around and finally pretending to sheath an imaginary sword samurai-style whispering 'Booya" before imitating the final 'clink'.
"C-criminal!" shouted one idio- I mean civilian before more ANBU, Homura and Koharu surrounded Naruto who raised an eyebrow before showing a cocky smirk while the rest of them were once again in panic.
"I said ENOUGH!" authoritatively thundered one Sarutobi Hiruzen who sported a very large tick-mark and made them all freeze in their spots. "ANBU stand down! That goes for you too as well Homura, Koharu!" the Kage ordered.
"B-But Hiruzen-" Homura tried to protest.
"Stand. down., that's an order!" he met the protests with the same look he had when he entered the room.
"H-Hai!" Koharu stuttered and pushed Homura back to his seat and the ANBU retreated leaving one… pouting Naruto.
"Return to your seats and stop acting like sheltered princesses! This is a shinobi village and death is at every corner! Get used to it or get lost, but this meeting is not over yet! ANBU, take Kuma and Tora to the infirmary! Hopefully the medics will patch them up so they can stand trial. Oh and someone clean that mess up!" the Hokage ordered the rest of them pointing to the two down agents before moving to the two separate parts of the former councilor.
"WHAT? What would they stand trial for?" Shitake looked like the world turned upside down.
Hiruzen frowned further and then explained "For the unprovoked attack on a loyal Konoha shinobi."
Shitake now looked like he was sick "Hokage-sama you can't be serious! This thing killed Kotoroke*! It should be exe-"
"Silence!" Hiruzen ordered the man with so much power behind his words that the mushroom-man fell on his rear. "I have made it perfectly clear at the beginning of the meeting that we shall follow all laws, no exceptions! Kotoroke-san in his final moments broke the law which I have not canceled to this day. A law concerning an S-class secret punishable by death! And should you have had any other physical training besides pushing papers on my desk…" the old man growled speaking the last words "… you would have seen the kunai thrown by me that hit at the same time as Naruto sliced him. And you will stop referring to Naruto like that or you will be joining Kotoroke-san." the old man pointed at the severed torso in the corner of the room showing the kunai embedded perfectly in the middle of the man's forehead. The civilians soon remembered that it was a bloody body and fought desperately to keep their lunch where it belonged, some of them losing the battle.
"B-But! He still seriously injured those ANBU!" Piggybank tried to protest as well but sunk under the Kage's daring expression.
"They only have themselves to blame. The ANBU are my shinobi, operating directly under me, and not the council, especially the Civilian Council! I never gave them that order so they will be tried for the previously stated charges!" Hiruzen proclaimed greatly emphasizing each underlined word. "Do you question my judgment councilor?" The old man's expression was one that screamed 'Go ahead! I dare you!'.
The man moved his head from side to side so fast that it looked like a blur before seating himself while another team of ANBU removed Kotoroke's remains and used a Suiton to clean the blood.
By now the Hokage felt like a father dealing with a lot of spoilt children. Arrogant, selfish, greedy, spoilt rotten children. He didn't believe how many words he had to emphasize today to get through their thick skulls. The old man was extremely thankful to Naruto for his earlier gift otherwise he would've been feeling very, very tired now.
As they tried to resume a somewhat normal meeting again, but before they could take some deep breaths to calm down Naruto stepped forward and bowed directly to Hiruzen "Hokage-sama I must apologize since the earlier… disturbance was partially my fault as well. I was hasty and because of that, my actions have put some strain on the procedures. Had I waited, I would not have interfered with Kotoroke-san's… execution. For that and the damage caused by my jutsu I will provide adequate compensation as stated within the Laws and Regulations of Konohagakure no Sato."
Hiruzen smirked and nodded.
Naruto then turned to the rest of the council "Now then honored council, is there any other issue you wish to discuss?"
Most of them shook their heads in a no fashion but Danzo saw this as his cue to talk "Yes there is one more issue to be discussed. Uzumaki-san, you said that the sword became a kekkei-genkai, right?"
Naruto puzzled his motives but answered affirmatively.
Danzo smirked "Then I suppose that you are looking to establish your clan, am I right?"
This earned a lot of whispers and quite a few glares but none choose to scream out their opinions considering the … show they had to take part earlier.
Naruto closed his eyes and smirked "First of all, may I know your name councilor? I am not one for titles since more could share the same one and would lead to misunderstandings."
"Danzo Shimura. You may refer to me as Danzo-san or Shimura-san." the Root leader played cool, hoping to strike a good trusting relation with the blond.
"Thank you Shimura-san! As for your question, I regretfully have to dismiss them as I am not looking to 'establish' my clan." Naruto answered calmly even though inside he was questioning about the mummy-man's agenda. Mikoto was watching the procedures silently. She was one of the three that didn't put up their guard during the previous event, the others being Hiruzen and Hiashi. Inside she was thinking 'What in fuck's name you up to Danzo?'
Danzo then embraced a serious expression "It is unfortunate indeed but such a great power must not be lost in battle so I am proposing to that Uzumaki Naruto be sent to the reserves and compelled to produce offspring to vote."
Naruto's expression deepened but he just barely kept his cool. The room was once again in a mild form of chaos as the debate began, no one noticing Hiashi and the Hokage's somewhat murderous faces.
"Excuse me honored council." Naruto tried to intervene but they paid him no attention. "Excuse me!" he shouted but nothing. A tick mark appeared on his brow as he let loose some chakra pressure (think like spirit pressure (reiatsu if you will) from bleach) backed up by a little KI. It felt like a small earthquake inside each councilor and they quickly stopped talking and turned their attention to him. "Thank you! Now, before you reach any decision I must remind you again of my earlier advice." he said turning his face to one stubborn blood stain that refused to come off even with the Suiton used earlier before turning back to them. "Also let me remind the women on the council that approving this motion would mean that I would have to entertain relations with multiple women turning them into, for lack of better terms, degraded 'breeding stocks' or 'cum dumps'..." he said letting it sink in. And sink in it did as the said women began to think again on their decisions. "As for the men, let's just say that retiring me from active duty would have to pass through the Hokage first so you must wait for his decision as stated in art. 145/SE. Also keep in mind that should this motion be approved I will be deeply upset. Now I know you don't really care for the last part but maybe you will care for what will happen if you piss-off a Bijuu container. Hiashi-sama, if you will?"
Hiashi looked at him with hatred. It was all a ruse of course but none the less it did its job perfectly. Most of the villagers now looked at the Hyuuga with even greater awe once they heard that they kicked the demon out. The vandalizing and anything else of their property came to an abrupt end. Now the man got up and bowed slightly before taking the mike so to speak. "When that happens there is a chance that the seal might crack and break thus releasing the creature on the spot. Also, Bijuu are immortal constructs of living condensed chakra. Should the host die, the creature will reform itself in time in the exact location of the container's death." he said before reassuming his place on the seat.
That did it as the council was at a loss for words and, it seemed, blood as they had a very pale complexion. Well the idiots and the clans who knew nothing of Naruto did. Even Shikaku looked alert.
Naruto felt like following Kurama's example and laugh his ass off like the Bijuu was doing inside the boy right now but once again kept his composure. "Would you tell me the results of the vote now or later?" Naruto smirked. Needless to say, in less than a minute the motion was denied nearly unanimously. Danzo gripped his cane-sword so hard it left imprints on the handle.
The blond kept his smirk "Thank you for your understanding. Now is there anything else as I would like to present my request to the Shinobi Council as I said so at the beginning of the meeting."
The civilians grumbled but confirmed that there was nothing left to discuss.
Naruto nodded and then turned to the shinobi "Thank you for your time honored council. I will take no more of your time than it is needed so I will be brief. The matter which I want to present to you is the reestablishment of the Uzumaki clan right here in Konoha."
The hall erupted in talk and different reactions could be read on the faces of everyone present.
"Denied! You said that you wouldn't establish any clan!" yelled Shitake.
Naruto turned to him with an ice-cold glare "I request that you hold your words in your mind councilor-san as this is no matter concerning you but the shinobi. As for what I said earlier, I remind you that I said I will not 'establish' my own clan. If you ever read something other than your checkbook you would have probably found out that the Uzumaki were a major clan during the Shodaime and Nidaime eras and were the leading clan in Uzushiogakure. They were even related to the Senju and the Uchiha albeit distantly, and although the part about the Uchiha is barely mentioned anywhere, it is free knowledge to anyone who visits the library that even Hashirama Senju-sama's wife was Uzumaki Mito-sama. The red swirl on the back of most of Konoha issued uniforms is in fact a simplified version of the Uzushio village symbol and was implemented as a sign of goodwill between the two villages. Actually, if you think about it, that would at least make a relative of the two Hokage."
This left Shitake and several civilians gaping like dying fish but Naruto was far from finished "The Uzumaki were very knowledgeable in the art of fūinjutsu. This reputation earned them renown and fear worldwide, which eventually led to the destruction of Uzushiogakure, and the rest of the Land of Whirlpools during the era of Shinobi World Wars. And their or should I say, our Kekkei-Genkai was just as renown and it was the reason Uzushio was known as the village of longevity since the clan possessed incredible life-force and longevity and this gives us a relatively accelerated healing factor, as it takes at least three-times less for an Uzumaki to heal from the same wounds a different shinobi would get and a very dense and potent chakra. Some Uzumaki were known to be able to manifest this chakra in the form of constructs. A good example of longevity is Mito Uzumaki-sama, who lived from before the founding of Konoha, to well into the term of the Third Hokage's reign." Naruto told them before taking out a scroll. "I have already begun to rediscover the old sealing art as well as improving it. Inside this scroll are simple yet effective seals that could prove useful to the village like personal shield seals and an improved power absorption array for the Konoha power-plant, as well as sleep-seals, chakra-seals and higher capacity storage-seals. I also included counters for the battle-ready seals." the blond finished by tossing the scroll to the Hokage who took a quick look at it before smiling and nodding. "Of course those are minor seal projects of mine. I kept the more powerful ones for myself and am presenting them as clan secret techniques."
Danzo once again took the stand before the Hokage's teammates could blow a fuse "Then you must detail them to the council so we can analyze and promote them as clan techniques if we are to approve your clan."
Naruto smirked as he turned to the man "Nice try Shimura-san but then they wouldn't be secret techniques. If I were to present them then I think it would only be fair that every clan here to present their technique's strengths and weaknesses, right?" he said as the clan-heads turned away from him as if they were hiding "I thought so. Anyway, you misunderstood your position again. I am not asking you to approve of me reforming my clan since you would have no say in that, I was asking that you approve of registering the clan here in Konoha."
Danzo cringed so hard you could hear his teeth cracking but kept his cool "I see. I apologize for my mistake." he said without emotion or honesty.
Naruto nodded in acceptance towards the man.
"But there are still two problems with your request." Homura intervened "First of all you need a proper residence for your clan as I am sure that you can't restore a clan in a small apartment."
The blond smirked again "I have already addressed that problem. Today I have acquired a compound by purchasing it from Sasuke Uchiha two streets away from the Hyuuga compound. Cost me an arm and a leg but it was worth it. Here is a copy of the deed." Naruto tossed a deed scroll to the man who, after reading it, growled but nodded.
In the meantime Naruto saw how a couple of civilian councilmen whispered something to their respective attendants who nodded before making a discreet exit.
Homura spoke again "The second problem would be that every clan has to send a representative on the council and thus must not be involved in normal peace-time missions. That would mean that either you must retire from active duty and assume your position as council-member."
Naruto smiled before closing his eyes and swaying his head to each side "What is it with you people retiring me from active duty. Never mind. I already have a technique that can create a clone that can report its memories to me once dispelled."
Homura frowned and smirked lightly "I'm afraid Kage Bunshin are not accepted here since they cannot function outside a limiting range from the user."
Naruto raised an eyebrow "Who said anything about Shadow Clones. What I meant is that I have recently created a clone technique that can create a clone with a solid biological body that can bleed. It works by creating a normal blank-minded bio-clone of my body and imprinting a Kage Bunshin 'soul' so to speak that I can call back with a mental command and it will transfer the memories to me. And because it is a living body it can regenerate chakra and suffer wounds like any normal being. The only downfall is that it has only 15 percent of my power. I call it Body Kage Bunshin and before you ask, it will be a clan technique so, no I will not teach it to anyone that I don't want."
Hiruzen was slowly turning blue from holding his breath to keep from laughing his ass off. He took a quick but deep breath before turning his attention to the shinobi side. "I think that all the angles of his request have been sorted out. Now I request that you begin the voting."
"A new clan would raise Konoha's outside prestige. I vote for approval!" said Hiashi.
"I don't see any faults in the logic of the request. I vote for approval!" nodded Shibi.
"Troublesome, I vote for approval." grumbled you know who.
"I see no problem with it. I vote for approval!" smirked Inoichi
"Choji said you raise hell every chance you got. However he didn't see how sneaky you can be and this could be a welcome asset in a shinobi village. I vote for approval!" chuckled Chouza.
"My son hated your guts." Tsume growled but then smiled "But after he came back from Wave he became a lot more serious, hard-working even and is on his way to becoming a real pack-leader. If you have that effect on people who hate you I would be a fool to refuse your claim. I vote for approval!"
"If my husband were here he would have refused you in less than a second." frowned Mikoto but smiled kindly after "But he is not and such I am the clan leader now and I know full well what you and the Uzumaki are capable of. I vote for approval."
The Hokage then intervened "Since the Senju and Kurama clan representatives are not present, their votes are counted as neutral abstains." He paused to smile. "As I am the Hokage as well as the Sarutobi clan representative my word holds the power of two votes and I vote for approval! That means that we have nine votes for approval, two abstains and no denials. The request has been approved so the Uzumaki will be now formally recognized as a Konoha clan. Congratulations Naruto! You may now attend the meetings, possess the right to vote and any other perks and responsibilities of a council clan."
"Thank you Hokage-sama and honored Shinobi Council." Naruto answered and was met with applause from the said part of the people present.
Just then Shitake's attendant rushed in the room and gracefully ran to his boss, whispering something in his ear.
"Please hold on a minute!" the man shouted. All heads turned to him. "I have received a report from my attendant that people are getting trapped inside your compound boy!" Shitake pointed at the blond accusingly.
Naruto popped a vein. "First of all councilor-san, you will refer to me as Uzumaki-san or Uzumaki-sama. Second of all you will remove your finger from my face before I remove your head from your shoulders for insulting a clan-head!" Naruto growled with his red slit eyes. Shitake immediately backed away. "My compound is protected by a very powerful barrier that can do many things. Right now it is set to 'stun'. That means that once they step inside my property the barrier seal them away in an energetic shell that is much more powerful than any jutsu that most humans can do. They are lucky that I didn't set it to 'repel' mode otherwise they would be smears on the side of Iwa's mountains. Because of that I would like to ask you how your attendant knew about them and what were the trapped ones doing inside my home, hmm?"
The man shifted uncomfortably. Naruto on the other hand would have none of it. "The compound holds many clan secrets and such it is well within my rights to protect it since it means protecting Konoha from letting its enemies get those secrets. So if you will not answer those questions you will be accused of treason for aiding possible enemy spies. I'm sure Ibiki Morino would love to meet you, not to mention Anko Mitarashi. Both of them have would love to have you for dinner, literally. Speaking of them I haven't visited Miki the Snake Summon in a while. I wonder if she still has the habit of biting victims, oh sorry, 'prisoners' in points that spread the venom slowly. I heard that people would rather have red-hot kunai stuck inside their fingernails than that." The boy tapped his chin innocently.
"I-I…" Shitake stuttered as he sweated profusely.
"Well? Spit it out!" Naruto pushed just like the T&I specialists taught him.
The man began to mumble sentences that couldn't be understood.
The blond teen seal-lessly created a shadow clone "Go get Ibiki and Anko!" Naruto ordered his clone. It was a tactic to scare the man as normally ANBU would take him to the T&I station not the other way around.
"Wait! I sent them there!" Shitake broke.
"Sent who, where?" Naruto smirked.
"I sent those men inside your compound!" the man frightfully admitted.
"For what reason?" Hiruzen growled as his KI soared.
"T-To v-vandalize and rob the place." Shitake confessed, nearly fainting when the KI increased.
Naruto's face kept a smug grin "Who are they?"
"A couple of Chuunin that needed extra money and hate you. My attendant knows their names."
"I see." nodded the boy "In that case, according to the law they are from this moment on they are accused of attempted robbery, attempted breaking an entry, and will be court-martialed for insubordination and any other infringements since they are shinobi and should listen to the orders of their superiors and not to civilians." Naruto inhaled since he ran out of breath "As for you, I am willing to drop the charges if you present a formal apology for your behavior towards me and will cover the costs of my earlier … 'disturbances'. Otherwise you will get a very 'intimate date' with Anko-nee-san."
"I agree! I agree! I will apologize and cover the costs!" Shitake bowed on his hands and knees.
"Acceptable." Naruto turned on his heal. "Should I turn those Chuunin to your forces Hokage-sama or can I play with them a little?" Naruto smiled like Anko sending a shiver down the shinobi's spines.
Hiruzen flashed a smirk mirroring Naruto's own "Knock yourself out!" making the rest of the council pale.
"Thank you! Things are going to change from here on, that I can promise you!" the blond shouted out to everyone.

Shitake-san: Member of the civilian council he is in charge of the Utilities: Electricity, water, waste and sewage. He is a tall and thin man with a short nose and cylindrical-like head. His hair is a bowl-cut but it is a little spiky so it looks like an umbrella giving the man a total appearance of a… you guessed it: mushroom. Also 'shiitake' is a type of Japanese mushroom. Because of this and his appearance he was bullied when he was young and was called 'Mushroom' so now he hates anyone who calls him that with a vengeance.
Okumura-san: Member of the civilian council and a large merchant family. General manager of the biggest bank in Hi no Kuni, he is short, round, fat and nearly bald. His nose is also pointed up giving a good view of his nostrils and making him look like a pig. He is the biggest coward of all the council members.
Kotoroke: Cannon fodder councilor. ^_*
Some afterthought:
I noticed that most authors think of the Shunshin no Jutsu as a short to medium range teleportation jutsu. I feel it is my duty to inform the authors and future authors that read this fic that IT IS NOT A TELEPORTATION JUTSU of any kind. The user simply energizes his body with chakra allowing for extreme high speed movement but it is very difficult to truly master for battle since it mostly forces linear motion to occur. To change direction during usage of such technique subjects the body to as much G's or G-force to force blood flow to change direction in the body causing loss of consciousness in the best case scenario. That is why we don't have a lot of Shunshin no Shisui in Konoha.
Also, as far as I can tell, Namikaze was never a clan. Namikaze Minato was an orphan or his parents are unknown. Only the Uzumaki was a clan and it has been wiped out. Seriously Senju, Uzumaki and Uchiha have been wiped in this show with only an heir or two present.
TECHNIQUE DETAILS : BOIDO NAMI
'Boido Nami' or 'Void Wave' is a Jikuukan (time-space) Jutsu based off the Shinra Tensei. I wanted my Naruto to have something similar to this awesome jutsu but I didn't want it to be a cheap copy. Void Wave is based on the principle of space-time distortions.
By using two opposite direction Senkaipo Jutsus three dimensional space is stretched outside of the time dimension and instantly 'implodes' or crashes back. This creates a distortion (the initial glossy bubble) that later propagates like a wave away from the user stretching the space caught (together with everything in it) in the shockwave and moving it similar to how a surfer does a normal wave but at incredible speeds and because of this the victim is imbued with tremendous kinetic energy as he, she or it is hit. It is not the wave that does the most damage but the energy it imbues anything it 'touches'.
The wave travels at the speed of light making it impossible to avoid unless you can move faster than light (*cough* teleport * cough). To the outside it looks like a very weak camera flash combined with a soap bubble. Once the technique is over any unlucky creature that got caught in the 'blast' will most likely feel incredible pain since every cell in their body was stretched with some weaker ones being ripped apart. It is most damaging if the wave hits you with its direction of propagation perpendicular to your spine since that is how the most 'stretching' occurs.
After the wave passes the stretched space rebounds back to its original state creating a weaker secondary 'stretch' in the opposite direction causing even more damage to whatever is caught by the field.
The closest example to describe the technique would be to take a bed sheet and flick it. The resulting 'wave' describes the motion but in 3D. Matter is caught by the base of the wave and not only is it forced to move forward (riding the wave) but since the speed of travel is so great the wave also passes 'underneath' it and tears it apart similar to how when an asteroid approaches a black hole it is stretched because the gravity is greater on the side closer to the event horizon than the part that is away from it.
The visible effects occur because light is bent by the stretched space-time field.
Called Void Wave because you literally want to occupy the two 'voids' with the same 'space' at the same 'instant' (instant since time is irrelevant when talking about 3D-only space)
Range depends on the power supplied to the Senkaipo Jutsus.
Weakness: None except another B.N. of the same intensity can cancel it. Also may have trouble against gravity or dimensional (or space-time) related jutsu.
Danger: If the Senkaipos are not balanced properly then the user will either be torn apart or the shockwave will propagate inwardly crushing the user into an unstable black hole that will dissipate instantly. (Naruto lost about 8693 clones until he finally got the right feel for it).
When the range exceeds 100 feet then it changes its name to Boido Tsunami (Grand Void Wave).
Classification: S-rank Kinjutsu because of the power of this Jutsu, the dangers of using it and the chakra control and cost required. (Naruto can use it for a maximum 17 times using only his own reserves compared to the 50+ Senkaipo)
