Mystic 6 Tailed Naruto: Rage of the Tormentor

I apologize for the long wait on chapter updates, but school has been really busy and stressful, coupled in with my writers block. I will TRY to update more often.

Hiruzen Sarutobi tapped the top of his desk as he looked towards the three ANBU before him, "So let me get this straight, my three top ANBU who have captured high class missing-nin, outmatched some of the finest members of the, Hyuuga, Inuzuka, and Aburame clans in tracking, outsmarted Nara tacticians, and in the last few years, have provided victories for us during our war with Kumo…cannot find one seven year old Jinchuriki child, who fled this village not a week ago, with you three not more than ten meters behind him? And to this, you could not find him even after he leapt off the Cliffside at the Valley of the End?"

Inu, Neko, and Iruka fidgeted in place under their Hokage's scrutinous gaze. They had returned twenty minutes ago after having searched every single inch of the valley of the end for a trace of Naruto's whereabouts. They came up with absolutely nothing, and it had begun to rain, which would have removed any other remaining trace of Naruto's whereabouts.

Inu stepped forward, "We are deeply apologetic Sandaime-sama, Naruto had used the Kyuubi's youki and managed to outrun us up to the Valley of the End, where he jumped off the cliff."

Hiruzen frowned as he laced his fingers together and rested his forehead against the interlaced fingers, "You are dismissed…report in at exactly seven o clock tomorrow morning, no excuses."

The three bowed, "Hai, Hokage-sama." The three ANBU operatives vanished via Shunshin, leaving the elderly Hokage alone.

Hiruzen sighed as he turned to look out the window to see the village prosper…and seven years worth of planning be destroyed by a single act of negligence.

Sighing, he rubbed his forehead, 'How could things have gone so wrong in such a short time?'

Looking up towards the setting sun, he clenched his fists.

'Knock…knock…'

Hiruzen looked towards his office door, and sighed, "Enter."

The door opened, and three figures entered, all three as ancient as the Sandaime himself. The first figure was an elderly woman with a knot tied in her hair, the second was an elderly man wearing a pair of glasses, and the final figure, another elderly man with bandages covering the right side of his face, and his bandaged right arm.

Hiruzen frowned at the three figures who entered, "Koharu, Homura…Danzo. To what do I owe this sudden visit from my old comrades?"

The bandaged man was the first to speak, "I am sure you know perfectly well why we are here Hiruzen." He walked forward as he reached into his robe, pulling out a file and placing it on Hiruzen's desk, "It is in regards to the whereabouts of one Naruto Uzumaki."

Hiruzen narrowed his eyes and laced his fingers together and leaned his chin upon the enclosed fingers, "I have nothing to say to you three."

The woman spoke up, "That is where you are wrong Hiruzen, Naruto is an asset to Konoha due to his status as not only a Jinchuriki, but heir to the Namikaze clan. Only he is capable learning the Namikaze clans prized Hiraishin, and unlocking the notes that Minato left behind in regards to the Rasengan's true potential."

Huiruzen sighed, "Jiraiya has the information on the forming of the Raseng-"

The other elderly male cut him off, "Jiraiya only knows the capabilities of the Rasengan and it's raw forms potential, what we mean is the capability of molding an element into the Rasengan itself, something that Minato knew, yet did not have the time to apply in form. Currently the notes to the Rasengan are hidden in his safe, which can only be opened by a modified blood seal, which is impossible to open without a donor of the Namikaze clans blood."

Hiruzen looked at Homura, "Naruto's blood has been taken each time he has gone to the hospital, surely you can receive some blood packs there for the purpose of opening the safe."

Danzo frowned and leaned foeward, "We have tried that, and it does not work."

Hiruzen's eyes widened as he looked towards Danzo, "What do you mean?"

Koharu stepped up, "The blood seal on the safe was modified from a typical blood seal. We have determined that the blood seal will only open should 'fresh' blood be applied, and since there are preservative chemicals in the hospital blood, the blood seal rejects it entirely."

Homura nodded and spoke, "We feel that it is time for young Naruto to obtain the Namikaze clans heritage now."

A wave of silence washed over the office, until Hiruzen sighed as he lowered his head, "Naruto fled from Konoha less than a week ago…and we have yet to find a body."

…

…

…

"WHAT?" Danzo slammed his fist into the desk, losing his temper, "You are telling us that you lost our prized Jinchuriki, and heir to the Namikaze clan? How did this happen?"

Hiruzen sighed and pointed towards the location of the once hidden blood seal safe on the wall, "He somehow got into my office whilst he was bleeding profusely, and his blood touched the seal. He discovered his heritage and attempted to flee to what was left of Uzugakure more than likely, and my top ANBU trailed him in hopes of capturing him…but he leapt off the edge of the Valley of the End. We could find no trace of him anywhere. If he did survive the fall, he likely headed towards Uzugakure's ruins."

Koharu grit her teeth, "Then why have you not sent ANBU towards Uzugakure and bring him back to Konoha!"

Hiruzen looked up at Koharu, "And how do you propose we accomplish that? The only available port that can go to Uzugakure is owned by Kumo, and our relations with them are still strained."

Homura spoke up, "Why not try acquiring the aid of one of the merchant guild along the coast of Hi no Kuni?"

Hiruzen looked at Homura, "They are unlikely to give aid to Konoha nin, as most merchant guilds are still spiteful of us for abandoning them to assault from our enemies during the last war."

Koharu spoke, "Then we shall not send Shinobi…as far as they know."

Hiruzen turned towards Koharu, "What are you saying?"

Koharu took a deep breath and spoke, "Some of our Shinobi that are Genin rank cannot excel further because of their low chakra stores, however, this is a boon for espionage. Many of our Genin who cannot excel further are sent on espionage missions since their chakra stores are so low, nobody could tell they are trained Shinobi…we could send some of our Genin espionage to get assistance to Uzugakure from one of the guilds, and the guilds would be none the wiser."

Hiruzen thought over Koharu's suggestion, it certainly had merit, though there were obvious flaws in the plan…however, if they wanted aid to get to Uzugakure, they had no other option.

Hiruzen looked towards Koharu, "Find the best trackers amongst the espionage Genins, have them ready by tomorrow."

Koharu nodded her head, "It will be done Sandaime-sama." She quickly turned and left the office.

Homura and Danzo looked at Hiruzen, "Hiruzen, if Naruto did somehow manage to find a port towards Uzu no Kuni, then would they not sense his immense chakra stores?"

Hiruzen looked towards the two elders, and sighed, "That is not likely."

Danzo frowned, "What do you mean?"

Hiruzen reached into his desk and pulled out a file, and passed it to Danzo, "This shall explain it."

Danzo took the folder and opened it…his eyes widened slightly in shock, then turned towards Hiruzen, "This is a dangerous game you are playing Hiruzen."

Hiruzen nodded his head, "I am well aware of that Danzo, but sometimes…the path to paradise, is paved in blood."

In Uzugakure

After Kushina had left the council meeting, she had taken Naruto with her through the village towards their home…when she noticed something odd about Naruto's chakra.

Most Jinchuriki leak chakra by the bucket loads…yet Kushina was feeling chakra barely that of a civilian being leaked. She had then brought Naruto back to Souken, who did a proper diagnosis of Naruto's chakra network with the care of a fine toothed comb.

She was not pleased with the findings.

There had been a series of powerful chakra suppression seals placed upon his body, which were probably applied a few days before he had left Konoha. No doubt the suppression seals were the cause of the Kyuubi's chakra not healing it's vessel. She had quickly ordered Souken to remove the seals…

In hindsight…she probably should have had it done one at a time.

Naruto was now jittering in his seat as they sat at the dinner table, his eyes twitching repetitively, no doubt caused by the severe sudden overload of chakra in his body.

Kushina sighed and placed her hand on the shoulder of her twitching son, "Naruto, are you feeling alright?"

Naruto rapidly nodded his head and jittered out, "Yeah why do you ask?" he said so fast, Kushina barely caught it.

Kushina shook her head and looked up towards their guests…Housho and Souken, "Souken, what is going on with my son?"

Souken lightly stroked his chin, "Hmmm…well, no doubt because of the Kyuubi sealed inside of him, Naruto's chakra replenishes itself at an abnormally fast rate, even moreso when he is injured. However, the suppression seals on his body had basically cut his chakra off from his body, and because of the injuries, Kyuubi kept pumping chakra into it's host, which was purified by the seal holding it, which was then added to the chakra being held back by the suppression seals. Now that the suppression seals are off him however…his chakra is flowing through his body at an abnormally fast rate, causing what you see before you/"

Housho looked at Souken, "So…he is basically suffering a chakra equivalent to a sugar rush?"

Souken sighed and looked at Housho, "If you want to put t that way, then yes."

Kushina looked at Naruto, who was one his third plate of food, "Any idea when this rush will wear off?"

…

…

…

Souken scratched the back of his head, "That's the thing…I am not sure when it will wear off. His body has now adapted to a creating larger portions of chakra due to the suppression seals, so it may take some time for the rush of chakra to subside and he can act a bit…normal. I am guessing however it will not last much longer than a few weeks."

Kushina sighed and nodded her head, "That's good." Kushina looked up towards Souken and Housho, "I thank you two for coming here."

Housho smiled, "Nonsense Uzukage-sama, it is a pleasure to speak with you over dinner."

Souken smiled, "I agree…however, I must ask why you did bring us both here. Obviously young Naruto's condition is a part of it, but I feel there is more to it."

Kushina nodded her head, then looked towards Naruto, "Sochi, could you please leave the room for a bit?"

Naruto nodded his head, "Hai Kaa-chan." He quickly ran out of the room, leaving the three to themselves.

Kushina turned towards Housho, "My son's skills in the shinobi arts are minimal at best, and as much as I would love to help him, my teaching techniques are not something that would be beneficial to his health."

Housho smiled, "Aw Uzukage-sama, I am sure they are not that bad."

Kushina looked at Housho, "I put three thirteen year old Genin hopefuls in the hospital for two months during a light spar."

Souken sighed, "Ah yes, I remember that one…those poor Genin hopefuls, ended up quitting."

Kushina nodded, "Yes, that is why I need the help of you two…both of you are my best, and only options at finding those who can train my sochi."

Housho and Souken looked at Kushina, "U-Uzukage-sama, surely there are better options than us?"

Kushina shook her head, "No, nobody else is as qualified as you two. Souken, nobody is better at chakra control exercises than you, plus you are excelled at medical ninjutsu, so any injuries my sochi might sustain could easily be healed by you." She looked at Housho, "Housho, out of all the members of your clan, you are without a doubt the best at taijutsu and you are a sensor to boot. You could help my son in so many ways…" she looked at the two of them…and engaged the dreaded puppy dog eyes and pout no jutsu, "Please?"

Housho and Souken practically melted the moment she gave that look, and nodded, "Alright, we'll help."

Kushina grinned, "Yay!" and hugged the both of them, "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!"

Housho's eyes turned dreamy as Kushina was hugging her as Souken's arms were waving around as Kushina crshed his wind pipe.

In Konoha…next day

Hiruzen looked at the five individuals in front of him, then looked towards Koharu, "These are the best espionage genin you could find Koharu?"

Koharu nodded her head, "Hai, Hokage-sama."

Hiruzen nodded his head, "Good." He looked towards the gathered individuals, "Attention, I will be sending the five of you on an S-rank capture and retrieve mission to Uzu no Kuni." He held up a photo of Naruto, "This is your target. You are to capture him, and bring him back to Konoha. You will have to acquire aid from one of the merchant guilds. Do not, under any circumstances, allow any of them to know that you are Shinobi, or they will kill you without hesitation."

The five shinobi saluted, "Hai Sandaime-sama!"

Hiruzen nodded his head, "Good…now go!"

The five quickly turned and headed out to accomplish their mission.

Hiruzen looked towards Koharu, "I hope that my trust in your espionage group is not misplaced."

Koharu smiled, "I assure you that it is not."

Hiruzen looked towards the sky, "We shall see."

Uzugakure

Naruto was shifting nervously, his eyes still twitching heavily as Kushina put his clothes on, "Kaa-chan, why are we doing this?"

Kushina smiled, "Because sochi, we need to get allies for Uzugakure."

Naruto frowned, "I figured that, but why am I wearing this?" he indicated the Kimono, which was two sizes too large for him.

Kushina chuckled, "A few reasons, one, it is so adorable seeing you wear clothes too big for you." She said whilst pinching his cheek, "And the other reason is because we want to make a good impression towards the diplomats in Rai no Kuni, Ta no Kuni, and Takigakure."

Naruto pouted and relented.

Smiling, Kushina picked Naruto up and looked behind her, "Are we all ready?"

Standing behind her were diplomats from all of Uzugakure's clans, and noble families, along with several non affiliated diplomats of her choosing, "Hai Uzukage-sama!"

Kushina smiled and turned towards the carriage that woulkd be carrying her and Naruto, along with Housho and Souken. The other diplomats got into their carriages as well.

The carriage drivers whipped the reins, and the horses and oxen drawing the carriages headed off.

The next chapter will go deeper into the whole plot line, showing the villages of the people Naruto met, along with the punishment Konoha will face.

Look on my profile for the poll for Naruto's pairing, and do not ask about harems as me and my partner are still discussing them.

In the mean time, wait for the next update...ROME WAS NOT BUILT IN A DAY FOLKS! So please, until the next update, read, review...and if you MUST flame, flame with legitimate reasons people...
