A/N: Sorry for not posting one of these sooner, but thank you for the follows and reviews. Also, I would like to apologize if my updating is somewhat sporadic, as I am a USMC F18 mechanic and my hours are somewhat brutal.

Thanks again for reading, and also I don't own Naruto.


Naruto looked around at the village of his people one last time before entering the room he was destined to find. Much like the scroll that had lead him here, the room was much larger on the inside. It was about the size of his apartment, and the walls were covered in shapes that he assumed must have been sealed. "Ugh, now what?" He wondered out loud.

As if on cue, one of the larger, more distinguished seals began glowing in the center of the back wall. Confused but determined, Naruto slowly walked to the red pulsing spiral on the wall. The closer he got, the more he felt like something was pulling him towards it. Then he realized he actually was getting pulled by something.

He looked down to his right pocket and saw that the sealing scroll that he had put in there was now trying to escape. He pulled it out and let it go. It fell to the floor and rolled to the base of the wall of interest. It was trying to climb, but could not. Naruto lifted it and unravelled it. He did what he felt was then right, he slammed it into the seal on the wall.

Sure enough, the scroll in his hand began to do something. However, this something was not what Naruto expected. It began to devour him.

Naruto yelled for help as the scroll in his hand sucked him in. Finally, he was all the way through. He opened his eyes, not sure what to expect. It was dark, but not so much that he could not see. Not knowing quite what to do, he just began walking. It looked aimless, but he felt like he was being led.

After five minutes of walking, he began to hear a soft melody that seemed familiar, even though he was sure he had never heard it. He picked up his pace to a sprint, and eventually came upon the source of the music. Sat upon a stool in the middle of the darkness with nothing but a candle and a violin sat a hooded figure.

Naruto approached him with caution, and decided to make his presence known. "Hey, music guy. Where am I and who are you?" He asserted rather loudly.

The man stopped playing and set down his instrument slowly. He slowly removed his hood turned to the source of his interruption. "What is your name?" He asked slowly but firmly.

"U-Uzumaki Naruto" The blond replied nervously as the now unhooded man raised his candle so that his face could be seen.

Naruto looked closely at the man before him. He was bulky and short with a full head of dark red hair that went to his shoulders, and a slightly scraggy beard that matched his hair in color. He wore a white vest with a red shirt underneath and black pants.

"It is truly a pleasure to meet you, Naruto." He said unexpectedly. "It has been almost eleven surface world months since Karin-chan visited me for her ability, and I was beginning to think I would never have company again. Please, have a seat" he said as he conjured up another stool. "There is much to talk about"

Speechless, Naruto nodded and sat down. The man continued "My name is Uzumaki Yuusuke, and this is my domain. Here we will begin your fuuinjutsu training, and in only one year's time you shall have mastered your ability"

On the battlefield

"I thought you said only one of you would be returning, Minato!" Yelled the first hokage to the fourth.

"Fringe details have changed on the plan, but the main goal is still the same." replied the Yondaime as he dodged an attack. "Sasuke, you said something about an 'insane new ability', maybe now would be a good time to show it!" He continued, noticing the clone of his son narrowly avoiding a beast bomb that continued past him to create a new valley in the landscape.

Without replying, Sasuke jumped into the air. He began performing hand signs so quickly that Madara had to give an effort to follow them. "RAITON! DOTON! KATON!: ARCS OF THE UCHIHA!" He screamed as massive pillars of lightning, earth, and fire raised from the ground and began to race towards Madara and Obito.

"Is that all you..." Began Madara lazily, but he quickly perked up as he saw three of his other foes begin jutsus. "Fuuton: Rasenshuriken!" "Mokuton: Advancing Wall!" yelled Naruto's clone and Hashirama. "Suiton: Towering Tsunami!" projected Tobirama Senju as a tower of water one hundred feet high and ten feet wide erupted from his hand.

Minato was running extremely low on chakra, but he didn't feel the need to do anything. This attack would be enough without him, surely. All of the elements at their strongest, all going for one enemy. Naruto would not have to carry this burden. All he would need to do was know that his clone had helped out greatly in this attack.

This was wishful thinking, and he knew it. Any blow dealt would not be enough. The only thing that could stop this scourge was an ability that did not exist. What it was, he did not know. But he did know that his son may be the one to unlock it.

Sasuke must have sensed the feelings exuding from Minato, because he turned to him and said "That's not all."

Madara was raising his Susanoo from his body, bracing for the blow that would test him, but would not break him. Obito simply raised his hand and formed a shield of dense, dark chakra around his body.

Sasuke gave a smirk and raised his hand. At first, nothing happened. Naruto cocked his head and said "Teme, what are you..." He stopped short as his eyes grew wide. Out of each arc generated by Sasuke, a massive figure was emerging. "Uchiha Army: Elemental Suasanoos!" The three chakra obelisks were each armed with bows of each style they grew from.

"That's new" said Madara under his breath as he became slightly concerned about the abilities of his rinnegan. He quickly squashed his worries with his confidence. He had not yet tested the limits of his new abilities. He went into position and drew chakra to his eyes.

Sasuke turned to Naruto and began speaking "This is why I will always be better than you. I can not be defeated. I will join you, and I am glad you believe in me. But you must understand, I have won our little competition of strengths. I will always be your comrade, but I will be your superior. I will be hokage because none will stop me. I will resurrect my clan, and it will lead the world."

Naruto's clone stared at his 'friend' with the same wide eyes that had remained on his face throughout the whole conversation. He knew what Sasuke said was not true, but to think that he had fallen so low in his eyes made him feel like dirt. But, in the true fashion of Naruto Uzumaki, he painted a fake smile on his face and replied "Teme, I know you think yourself all high and mighty, but I will always be your equal. At this moment you may think you have surpassed me, but I will not let you believe that for long. I will be Hokage, and I will make sure you have the opportunity to resurrect your clan. You are my friend, but you really have lost your mind."

The two teammates broke their conversation as they were called by the first hokage. "It is definitely not over, brace for another attack." Sasuke's confidence dropped after what Madara did next.

"SHINRA TENSEI!" was all they heard as the strongest collaborative attack in the history of the world was turned around and sent right back at them.

Sasuke quickly turned his Susanoos around and fired three arrows at the enemy before dissipating them. The volley slammed into Madara's Susanoo and cracked it's armor.

Madara chuckled as he began to try and repair his summon. But it would not heal. 'I guess I these arrows are more than they appear' he thought to himself. 'No matter, they did not do much damage, just enough to make it look like I actually had to fight someone.' He looked at the young Uchiha who was about to be killed by an attack turned against him. 'Pity I have to end him, he would have made a fine heir to the sharingan.'

Minato was glad he had not assisted in the attack, because he had just enough chakra to use hirashin to go down and grab both Naruto and Sasuke and retreat back to the woods where he had put a seal on his way to the battlefield the first time.

"Dad, what about the other Hokages?" Naruto asked, looking up to his father. "I had only enough chakra for you and Sasuke, and since they are just resurrections, they will regenerate in a few minutes.

"No, they won't" said Sasuke in a hushed tone. "I put seals on the earth pillar as it was heading for Madara. If they bore the brunt of that attack, they will be gone for good."

Minato cursed under his breath as he racked his brain for a plan. The only hope he could think of was the real Naruto, and he could be days off.

Back in the sealing chamber

Naruto was stunned. "Did you just say a whole year?" he moaned in defeat. "Dad said mom did this crap in a day and a half."

Yuusuke chuckled. "Time is relevant, and no more so than here in my quarters. You see, I too have an Uzumaki Fuuinjutsu. It makes me strong, but it also gives me a burden. My ability allows me to seal pockets of time itself."

Naruto's exasperation slowly turned to awe at the man before him. "You can control time?! Can I have that jutsu?" He begged, thinking about how easily he could defeat Madara by going to the future and knowing his every move before it happened.

"It isn't what you think, young one, for time is not controlled for me, it is stopped. Perhaps my phrasing was off. I do not simply seal time, I seal parts of universes that do not exist, therefore creating a world that I control that does not conform to the parameters of the world of the living."

Naruto looked as though he had gotten hit in the face with a brick, and Yuusuke sighed and said "In layman's terms, we don't technically exist right now, and neither does time"

Naruto looked slightly less confused, and his face turned to excitement "Well, even though time doesn't matter, I still need to hurry."

Yuusuke smiled an Uzumaki smile and said "That's the spirit, but first, allow me to tell you my story."
