Naruto sat in the basement of the tower. He had found a strange seal inscribed on the floor and was now trying to figure out it's meaning. As he looked through the notes of his predecessor he found it. The grand archanem a design used to create something called the philosophers stone. This basement was strange though. There were several doors in it. Each one sealed. One had the symbol for time, the second the symbol for soul, and the third the symbol for raider.
Naruto didn't know where they lead. But he planned to find out. But first was the task in front of him. According to the notes the main ingredient in the stone was human life. The last leader of Uzushio had created one in a Kamikaze attack on the invading troops. Using the seal to destroy the village rather than let the enemy take it. He then hid the stone.
The notes stated that whoever consumed the stone would gain the power of their sin. Naruto wasn't sure what that meant but he would find out. The stone was hidden in a blood seal in the main office. Only a Uzumaki could open it. Naruto knew he had to get that stone. To make his village great.
He ran up stairs to the office and moved the portrait of his predecessor noticing a safe. He channeled Chakra into his hand before ripping it open. In the back he noticed the seal. He took a kunai from his side and cut his thumb spreading it on the seal.
The seal glowed as Naruto stepped back. A puff of smoke later a small red crystal and a note appeared. 'swallow this whole and you will avenge our people my son.' a son of Uzushio and a son of the Uzumaki. For clan and country he would do it. He swallowed it and immediately passed out.
When he awoke he was in a red mist made of screaming souls. As he walked forward he saw a man sitting on a throne. The man was tall and leath with dark grey skin red streaks down his face and razor sharp teeth. Naruto walked forward and looked up at the man. "Excuse me but where am I? Who are you? and where am I?"
The man laughed slightly. "In your soul. These souls are the ones trapped in the stone. As for me I'm greed your sin and partner. The longer I'm here the more you'll want for. Money, women, power, the finer things in life. Now my power will give you the true ultimate defense. You can alter the carbon levels in your body to make your skin harder than steel and your nails and teeth razor sharp."
"And what will you get in return?" Naruto asked arms crossed.
"Simple really. I'm Greed I'm a part of you now. So through you I'll gain more and more. That's all I ask is that you never lose your hunger." Greed said playing with one of the diamonds around his neck.
"Then it's a deal. So how do I get out of here?" Naruto asked.
"First come here and show me your oroborus." Greed replied. Naruto responded by holding out his hand. Greed tapped a claw on the tattoo as it turned from black to red. "That will allow us to communicate when you're on the outside. I will have access to your senses so I'll be able to spot things you miss. Also when you get it on I'll feel that too." He grinned as Naruto blushed. "Also I took a look through your Jutsu list as you call it. The Impure world resurrection needs a body. You can use humans or you can use shadow clones."
Naruto's eyes widened. He never thought of that. It'd be the perfect method. Especially if he was facing a enemy one on one and couldn't use the weaker enemies as sacrifices. "Now go on kid. You've got a world to conquer." Naruto chuckled as he faded from the world.
Naruto looked at the portraits of his predecessors and hoped he'd be able to learn more about them soon. But for now he had to prepare. He had about a month before he had to leave for Konoha. Deciding to bump up his training he left for his personal training ground.
There he made a hundred shadow clones and had them work on their respective task. He kept one behind and had him stand still as he began going through hand seals. "Summoning jutsu: Impure world resurrection." Naruto said as he slammed his hand into the ground. The clone was swallowed up as a coffin took his place.
The kanji for slayer was on it. As it opened a man stepped out. His skin was pale and his hair dark red tied back in a ponytail. He work a purple top and white hakama pants with brown sandles. A sword hung from his hip. But his most noticable feature was the x shaped scar on his cheek.
"So you are the new Uzukage." The man said as he stepped forward.
"Yes I am. You are the first. But please do tell what is your name?" Naruto asked.
"My name is Kenshin Himura. Or as I was known in my time Batosai the man slayer. I left my homeland of Japan and sailed here. I settled on this island and started a family. Eventually the village grew and I heard about five other nations starting hidden villages. So I created one of my own. Thus Uzushiogakure was founded. Now one of my decedents has brought me back. Why is that?" He asked.
"I want to learn our villages original kenjutsu style." Naruto responded determined.
"I see. Well then we should get started that we should." He said pulling out a sword with the blade on the other side. Naruto raised a eyebrow. "It is a reverse blade sword. When I left my life as the Batosai I promised never to kill again as long as I live. Death has released me from that oath." Naruto nodded now understanding his ancestor slightly better.
The two then began going through the begining katas of the Hiten Mitsurugi style. They practiced for hours. Naruto's prior Kenjutsu training helped with the understanding of the style.
They trained day in and day out. Naruto used shadow clones to take care of his Kage duties while he trained with Kenshin. As the month came to a close Naruto created a clone to run the village while he was at the exams. Both Zabuza and Mei's teams had members who had made it to the finals. Haku and Karin on Zabuza's side.
A Lava user named Shisi. She was a girl with waist length blonde hair, piercing grey eyes, and soft creamy skin. Her bust was a respectable low C-cup. The other was a Storm user named Magi. She had black hair cut short and spiky, emerald green eyes and pale skin.
The other competitors in the finals were. Sasuke Uchiha, Gaara Sabakuno, Neji Hyuuga, Shikamaru Nara, Temari Sabakuno, Shino Aburami, and Kankuro Sabakuno. Along with Naruto two other Kages would be at the event. The Hokage since it was in his village, and the Kazekage since his children were in the event.
Naruto walked through the front gate. He had brought Kenshin with him as his personal body guard. The two moved towards the Hokage tower. Naruto had sent a letter to Hiruzen under the pen name of the Uzukage that he would be coming for a meeting before the finals.
As the two walked into the tower they were pointed directly to the Hokage's office. Once in front Naruto knocked on the door. After hearing a come in from the other side the two men walked in.
The four people in the room turned and looked at him. Koharu was the first one to speak up. "What are you doing back here Demon brat." She spat.
Within a second she found Kenshin's blade at her throat. "It would do you well to show more respect to the Uzukage that it would." He said calmly as her eyes widened.
"So Naruto-kun you are the mysterious Uzukage we've been hearing of the past six months." Hiruzen stated.
"That I am Jiji. Now I simply came here to inform you of my return. Now I will take my leave and see you all at the finals tomorrow."
"Wait." Danzo said. "I demand that you release all shinobi in your service to Konoha as well as sign over all your lands as you are a Konoha citizen." He grinned slightly exploiting a old law from the second.
"Actually Hokage-dono released me from my citizenship the day I left. Now demand of me again and I'll have you executed." Naruto said as the two men disappeared.
The twp were currently staying at the leaf plaza where the two finalist teams were also located. Naruto meditated as he thought of his next move. Danzo would likely call for war to get his weapon back. Hiruzen would fight it but it would likely cause a civil war.
