Yo. Enjoy.

1: Are the chapters going to get longer?

A: I probably will make them longer later on, the start is just so I can introduce Naruto and his abilities and all. Expect longer chapters around the chunin exam arc.

2: This Naruto is an OC!

A: …. Aren't all fanfiction characters OC? I mean, since we all write a different story to the original series, doesn't that make every character placed within the fic as an OC with a background already made? Either way, I plan to make this Naruto more Naruto Uzumaki-ish later on. Hope that helps.

3: Will I give allocated times for my chapter updates?

A: I don't think I can since whenever I write a chapter, it's always dependent on my mood. I mean, just as you are reading this, I have just written it down a good few hours ago, depending on the chapter size which I have no clue about, so I can't ever really give a schedule for my updates. It all just at random times, so yeah… Sorry about that…

4: Naruto's healing factor, is it a bloodline?

A: It isn't a bloodline as bloodlines are something that can be passed on/ inherited by descendants. Naruto's healing factor is simply his own genetics gaining the ability through unknown means.

And with that, the questions are done. Anyway, onto the whole summoning thing. I am happy to take the idea's you all have and forge them into the story, but, you all have, especially black phoenix fire, good idea's which would make deciding the chosen animal difficult for me to choose. As such, I have decided to put up a little voting thing on the chapter for you to add onto, or vote on. Btw, mythical creatures such as Phoenix, dragon and all are also vote able options as it would show that Naruto, even as a civilian, could surpass those who were originally stronger and better than him because of genetics, although, I would prefer regular summon animals. So yeah, there's that. Anyway, current summon votes.

Lion: 1

Gorilla: 1

Reptiles (crocodiles/lizards): 1

Wolf: 2

Falcon (my personal choice): 2

Tool: 1

Frog: 1

Mouse/rat: 1

So yeah, if you want to add a possible summon onto the list, feel free to leave a review saying what it is along with a reason. A reason just so I can read it and get a small idea from it. Also, Naruto will not become an artificial jinchuuriki as you guys and girls have mentioned. So yeah, there's that… Onto the story!

Don't own Naruto

S-rank…. Something that Naruto himself doubted he would hear until he was well on down his life. Sure he has heard of the legendary feats of Kakashi hatake and even the Sannin who were give or take a few years older than him achieving such missions but… He wasn't even a genin for over a two months, well one before his small coma, and he had apparently completed an S-rank mission while participating on a regular C-rank…

That shit is not normal.

After Naruto and his sensei had gotten their lunch, naruto immediately went towards the hokage tower, his sensei Yamato following along as he knew what was on his students mind as he watched Naruto run towards the hokage tower with a look of shock and surprise, something that hadn't left Naruto's face even during their lunch together.

However, while Naruto understood the chances of a mission being bumped up due to unknown threats that may appear, he never thought that his mission rank would have been bumped up so high.

But what was the reason for it? He was sure Yamato said something but he was too focused on what his sensei had told him regarding him completing an S-rank mission to be completely focused on what the man had said after the whole "you completed an S-rank mission" thing.

Shaking his head slightly at his confusion, Naruto tilted his head upwards slightly as he watched himself pass by the academy side of the building before speeding himself around the corner towards the main kage entrance of the building.

Stopping himself just outside of the front door, Naruto simply released a small calming breath of air before walking inside the building with a calm facade, his mind simply swimming with thoughts as he got the "all good" from the secretary as he waited in a small line for his fellow comrads to complete their business.

However, it seems that the hokage was actually expecting him as Yamato simply grabbed the scruff of his black chunin type vest before disappearing within a shunshin, much to Naruto's internal jealousy as he himself couldn't use the jutsu….

Simply because his sensei wouldn't teach him…

The bastard…

When Naruto got his bearings from the shunshin, which was a real waste as he was just outside the door, Naruto came upon the sight of what appeared to be both the daimyo and the fourth hokage having small talk while team 8, who he noticed looked slightly "peppy" stood by waiting for something to happen as he too waited for the hokage and the daimyo to finish their chat, however, much to his shock, the moment he actually announced his appearance, via him sneezing silently, the fire daimyo and hokage both seem to stop their conversation.

Now normally when this happens it means two things could happen.

1: instantaneous death for disrupting two important figures, something that he was dreading as the two began to stare at him. Even more daunting was the daimyo's really ridiculous appearance and weird looking eyes.

2: Banishment…. And then killed via hunter Nin later on…

Widening his eyes slightly, Naruto quickly moved his head down in a bow as he quickly began to apologies, much to the daimyo's amusement as he looked down towards the black spiky haired child.

"Sorry for the intrusion Daimyo-sama, hokage-sama! I will leave immediately!" Shouted Naruto in a panicky tone, much to the growing grin being held on Yamato's face as he stood near the door with his arms crossed.

However, before Naruto could even lift his head up, Naruto could only hear the sound of laughter come from in front of him as he slowly began to raise his head in confusion.

When he did raise his head however, he came upon the sight of the daimyo laughing into his hand with the hokage giving him a small smile as he waited for the fire daimyo to calm down from his laughter.

It took a while, but the daimyo did eventually calm down from his little laughing high, much to Naruto's confusion as he simply stood there with a confused tilt of the head.

Finishing his chuckling, the daimyo could only look at the black haired child in front of him with a small smile.

"Oh this is Naruto-chan! What a dashing young man you have here hokage-san. I could even mistake him for your son if he had shorter blond hair and blue eyes! How marvellous! Now tell me Naruto-san. If you could have anything in the world, what would it be? Wealth? Power? Women?" Asked the fire daimyo with a small tilt of his head, making the black haired genin mentally image the apparently respectable man in front of him as very dopy.

Scratching the back of his head, Naruto seemed to be somewhat confused at the question, however, seeing as how the fire daimyo asked him. He replied.

"I guess…. Actually… Nothing comes to mind I guess… I guess the most apparent thing for me currently would be money since I have to pay off the rent which I now owe since I was knocked out… But other than that nothing comes to mind. Why do you ask daimyo-sama?" Asked Naruto with a small tilt of his head, gaining a small nod from the daimyo as he turned his attention back towards the hokage.

"You were right, such a brilliant child!" Spoke the daimyo before turning his attention back towards Naruto, completely missing the hokage's small smirk on his face as he looked towards the ruby eyed child.

Walking so that he was directly in front of Naruto, the fire daimyo simply reached his right hand into his left sleeve before pulling out a small brown bag before holding it out towards Naruto, who simply blinked.

"Take it." Grinned the daimyo as he shook the bag slightly in front of Naruto's hands, much to the child's confusion as he simply placed his hands beneath the brown bag before holding it slightly in front of him as if the daimyo was going to take it back in a moment's notice, something that he full heartedly thought was going to happen.

However, it seemed he was wrong as the man turned his attention back towards the hokage before holding a scroll towards him.

"This scroll has my approval of Naruto-kun here completing an S-rank retrieval mission. I shall be going now hokage-san. May we meet again later." Spoke the daimyo with a big dopy smile before once again turning his attention back towards Naruto as he then placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Naruto-kun. My niece Naho sends her thanks." Finished the daimyo before walking out of the room with a smile.

When the daimyo had left however, it seems team 8 could only shout their shock out into the world as they finally relapsed over what the fire daimyo had said.

"No way! That is complete bullshit hokage-sama! Our whole squad should have gotten that S-rank mission stat! How come the dobe gets it instead of me!" Shouted Kiba with a glare as he pointed towards the still slightly shocked Naruto as he began to prod the brown bag with his finger, much to the hokage's amusement before he returned his focus on team 8, who now were simply staring at him as if he was going to change his decision about the mission rank.

Shaking his head, Minato couldn't help but release a small sigh of irritation as he thought over how he was going to peacefully speak towards team 8 and why exactly they hadn't gotten the S-rank official stat.

However, it seemed Kurenai had once more decided to open her mouth.

"I agree with my genin hokage-sama. It is not fair when my whole team contributed to the safety of the daimyo's niece. As such, I believe my whole squad deserves the mission stat being recorded as an S-rank." Spoke Kurenai with a soft tone, only getting a small sigh from Minato as he pointed towards Naruto, who was now grinning evilly as he looked into the bag full of ryo bills, something that shocked the hell out of him as he began to count the money the daimyo had given him for no reason.

The dude seriously had nothing better to do than literally throw money away.

"Kurenai-san. Now while I understand where you are coming from. I had both the civilians who were captured by the bandits and missing ninja both speak about how exactly your team had "contributed" during the mission, which was only using the enemies fuinjutsu barrier against them as a shield for Naruto's explosive kunai barrage attack, which was the clone of Naruto's idea in the first place mind you. Then there was also the chunin Naruto killed while protecting, if I am not mistaken Kurenai-san, you, before passing out onto the ground due to both chakra exhaustion for using such a chakra intensive technique like the kage bunshin along with his raiton manipulation, which I have heard from Yamato still takes quite a bit of chakra away from Naruto as he is still not a master at nature manipulation. I will acknowledge the fact that you did also defeat the remaining chunin Kurenai, but during the whole mission your team was more of a hindrance, if not a blessing in disguise as Naruto here managed to both save your squad and the trapped civilians within the span of minutes of finding you… Now… When you look at that, why exactly does your team deserve an S-rank mission payment and stat?" Asked Minato curiously as he looked towards the raven haired jonin instructor with a small tilt of his head.

Kurenai could only lower her head in defeat as she recoiled how Naruto was truly the only one to do anything within their mission.

Lowering her head even further, Kurenai couldn't help but move her hands to her lap as she waited with her head down low.

"Sorry for that small episode hokage-sama. You are indeed correct. Thank you for deciding to grant my team and me an A-rank pay and stat. My team and I will now take our leave." Replied kurenai, only to narrow her eyes slightly as Kiba began to open his mouth.

Thankfully she managed to cover his mouth before walking out with her team, sending the hokage another small nod of gratitude… Even if there was a small scowl on her face as she left.

Although, it was probably due to the fact that a genin completed an S-rank mission, even if it was only due to who happened to be captured within the mission, within the span of two and a bit months while she had only completed 14 S-ranks over the course of her life time.

And let me tell you, there was a good few years between the two.

Watching as team 8 left the room, Minato couldn't help but release a small sigh of irritation before turning his head back towards Naruto, who had once more snapped back into his "shinobi mode" after his little childish money moment.

Something yamato made to capture on a camera he had on hand from the office entrance.

Giving the genin a small smile, Minato couldn't help but feel proud of one of his genin managing to complete a mission rank that even his own daughters hadn't done yet.

It just made him feel glad that konoha will be better protected by the younger generation.

"So, Naruto… How does it feel being the first genin within your generation to achieve an S-rank mission? Something that not even my own daughters, not that I would let them risk their lives like that, haven't achieved? It must have been exciting right?" Asked Minato with a small smile, only getting a shake from Naruto as his eyes narrowed slightly.

"While the joy of being awarded an S-rank mission is very welcomed. I know for a fact that it was only due to the daimyo's niece… Naho was it? Being there. And it's because of this mission I will likely have a target on my back during the chunin exams should any foreign shinobi find that out as it would either be a deterrent or an attraction. Deterrent to those who think I am either a jonin in disguise or really strong for my age. And attraction to those who would like credit for beating, and or killing, a genin who had completed an S-rank. Either way, I will have a target on my back if such information is found out. So yes, while I do enjoy completing an S-rank, it also irritates me as I now have a chance of becoming a target at a young, and regrettably weak age." Replied Naruto with his arms crossed, much to the hokage's amazement as he looked towards the genin.

Giving a small proud smile, Minato couldn't help but let a small chuckle out as he walked back towards his hokage chair and placed himself down while using his hands to hold his head up as he looked towards the black haired genin.

"That's an incredible view you have their Naruto. Not much genin, hell, chunin view it like that… It just shows that you are a prodigy of the highest calibre-" "Please don't call me a prodigy hokage-sama. I like to think that as a civilian bred genin, I have worked hard for my skills and abilities. And because of that I do not want to have the title of "prodigy" or "genius" allocated towards myself. I am a genin who brought himself to the hospital just so that he could master a skill. Sorry for my intrusion but that is how I feel hokage-sama." Spoke Naruto, immediately apologising for cutting of the leader of his village.

However, Minato's smile simply widened as he looked towards the genin.

"Very well then Naruto. Congratulations on achieving your first S-rank mission. Continue to grow stronger so that konoha can continue living within its peaceful time. Now off you go. I will either summon you if I need you for a mission or otherwise." Finished Minato with his smile still in place as he made a small shooing motion with his hand towards the genin.

Giving a small nod, Naruto turned around before leaving, absentmindedly noticing that his sensei wasn't following him out as he left the room.

Watching the genin leave, Minato couldn't help but release a tired sigh as he moved his eyes along towards Yamato, who could only release a tired sigh himself.

"Are you sure about this Tenzo? I know that I have been asking you a lot to help my own daughters with the kyuubi's chakra control… But are you sure you are willing to give up training Naruto just for my benefit?" Asked Minato with a tired look in his eyes as he glanced up towards the celling where he knew his most trusted anbu laid in wait before turning his attention back towards the jonin waiting by the door with a sorrowed look.

"Y-yes… Training your daughters in being able to control their bijuu's chakra is more important than training a genin… Especially if what you have told me about the night of the Kyuubi attack is true, which I do not doubt to be in fact true… But… But it still just doesn't feel right for me to up and leave my genin… He did achieve so much in a single month and he would have gotten even stronger had he had the month he lost due to his injury during the mission… Hokage-sama… Is there anything you can do to keep Naruto trained while I help your daughters in controlling the beast's power?" Asked Tenzo quietly as he stared towards the hokage who had now simply sank into his seat.

Looking towards the desk in front of him, Minato couldn't help but feel agitated as he thought of the possible things to do concerning Naruto. He knew that there wasn't simply enough jonin to hand around, especially to a solo genin who had only been allowed to continue being a genin because his sensei had requested an apprenticeship for him. But now because of the fact that his daughters needed to be controlled and supported during their jinchuuriki training, the solo genin was now being left with no one guarding and training him.

Over all, it was a complete headache. He could simply throw Naruto into another team and create a special team of five members, being four genin and one jonin, but that would make the whole team's dynamic fail and break as they would have to incorporate another member into their tactics. And because of that, the option of putting Naruto into another team was no longer an option.

He could however send Naruto back towards the academy to wait for a new team to be placed on, but then it would backfire as it would be limiting the Genin's surprisingly fast growth. Which was something he himself would never do.

After getting rid of the two most obvious things he could have done, which would have backfired and weakened konoha in the short and long run, Minato could only think of two things to do.

1: place Naruto in the reserves so that he would be able to take missions with other shinobi, which didn't help the whole training situation as being a reserve would mean you could be tasked to a mission at random times which would limit the time allowed to train in a ninja's skills, something they would then make Naruto weaker in the long run...

Or….

He could make Naruto a solo team with him being the leader along with giving him jonin level access to the ninja library within the building. But then there was the risk of Naruto himself dying due to learning something that was too difficult to learn at a young age or otherwise… But with the second option… Naruto would be able to train himself along with choosing when he would like a mission… Of course he would have to limit what missions Naruto himself could do, but he would be able to have a larger amount of leeway when it came to training and or missions.

"So I guess option two then… Very well… Naruto… Let's see what you can do on your own…" Thought Minato with a small blank stare before looking up towards Tenzo with a small smile.

"I'm sorry Tenzo. I won't be able to have Naruto trained by any other ninja… However… I will instead make him a solo squad with jonin level clearance within the ninja library down stairs. Do you think that will be enough to support Naruto in your opinion?" Asked Minato with a soft tone, gaining a small thoughtful look from Tenzo as nodded his head slightly.

"Yes hokage-sama. I believe Naruto will be able to continue his training by leaps and bounds, even when not being directly taught by a teacher… Also if I may hokage-sama, please call me Yamato. Tenzo is a name that I don't want to be referenced by apart from two other people, it just brings back memories is all." Replied Yamato, gaining a nod from Minato as he then proceeded to pull out a scroll from his table before writing down a small note.

While this was happening, Yamato could only watch with a small bit of sadness as he was figuratively throwing Naruto out on his own only after training him for a month, something that internally sickened him as he chose duty over his own comrad… But it was for the better good he supposed…

Bring his attention back towards Minato, Yamato watched as the fourth hokage attached his small note on a carrier bird's leg before releasing it out into the sky with nothing more than a slight whistle.

Watching the bird go, Yamato couldn't help but release a tired sigh.

"Good luck Naruto."

(With Naruto twenty minutes later.)

….

….

….

Seriously? Did he just seriously get a note from the hokage, who he just saw ten minutes ago, saying that his sensei Yamato will no longer be able to take him as an apprentice and he is now a solo team with jonin level clearance for the library?

FUCK YEA!

Sure losing his sensei hurt a bit, ok a lot, but with this opportunity… It would allow him to learn whatever he wanted whenever he wanted. It was also a lot more practical than having his sensei randomly appear and say they had a mission. Too many times did the man appear in his hospital room saying they had a mission not even a few hours after being placed in the dam room.

But to be fair though… It was kinda his fault he was nearly always within the hospital room, which had been allocated for him as he was quite famous for being near constantly injured and placed within the hospital room of his.

Some doctors even became regulars to him whenever he was in for a little recovery... Although, that didn't stop the doctors from constantly harping on about how he was a growing boy who was spending way too much time in a hospital.

They had a fair point, he practically lived in the place.

Shaking his head, Naruto re-read over the scroll once more before letting a sigh out.

Ok, sure he just lost his sensei, who was probably the only reason why he was as strong as he was now, but just because he lost his sensei doesn't mean he lost his abilities and drive.

After all, someone was going to have to show the shinobi clans whose boss.

Sending chakra into the scroll, Naruto watched as a small poof of smoke escaped the small seal imprinted onto the pages corner before watching as a small plastic card fell from the scroll he was reading towards the ground.

But with a quick lift of his knee and a swift slice of his right hand, Naruto managed to catch the card before it dropped to the ground.

Moving his right hand closer towards his face, Naruto came upon the sight of what appeared to be a small information's card that had his details, along with the hokage's signature near the bottom, and a clearance level, which had also, like mentioned within the letter, stated that he had jonin level access to the ninja library.

Lifting his right hand up towards the clear blue sky, Naruto couldn't help but grin as the silver plastic card seemed to shine as he stared up towards it with his grin slowly widening as the seconds flew by.

"Well… This is going to be interesting."

And done, enjoy.
