I do not own naruto anime, manga or other released formats.
After 2 years of fighting, the war was almost over. Who knew Onoki was such a stubborn Kage. The invasion had proven to be a huge mistake, and without their secret informant they had no clue of what Konoha had prepared. Naruto was sure of two important things. Onoki's pride was costing his village a lot more than he and their council was making public. The other was that if Kagami was telling him in his reports that the death of Fugaku actually had a positive effect on the clan as a whole. It seems Fugaku had been extorting money from the businesses in the clan grounds. Well that explained why so many businesses would go under on their clan grounds. Fugaku the idiot had caused many to go bankrupt.
Mikoto was practically singing out of sheer joy. She got to practice a lot of her lover's techniques and Naruto got to spend a few evenings alone talking about clan issues. The planning of the wedding did not take long at all. Minato and Kushina would stand as the best man and maid of honor. It was clear that their honeymoon would have to be in a particularly expected place. The bedroom in the new home that the businesses that had been in the clan grounds bought for him and Mikoto. They did it to thank him for putting an end to Fugaku. The lawsuits hit Fugaku and his relatives hard. They lost all their possessions, bank savings, and were sentenced to 230 years in prison with hard labor and no parole. Extortion was punished considering the amount that was taken and since it sent several wealthy businesses bankrupt, the amount was staggering.
Naruto simply said, "It would have been more merciful, to have them lose an arm." Mikoto smiled at him and told him. That this way the businesses could reopen again and it would benefit the village as a whole. That made sense.
The way the last battles happened was gruesome. Naruto had to go completely into wolf sage form and kill the last members of Iwa's anbu. The fighting had gotten to the point that Onoki had to start to consider sending the genin of the village to fight. When the situation reached to that point, the council told him that if he even sent one of the genin they would defect to Konoha, and so would all the ninja still alive at that point. "If you do that you clearly show us that your ego is the only thing you value, and not the welfare of your village!" The council told him that, and with anger in his face, and disappointment in his heart he agreed. The war would be over and peace would return to the elemental nations.
As the last thing to take care off, treaties between each of the villages was signed. The treaties were of none aggression on each other. This prevented the nations in engaging in what would be revenge for their respectable ninja. Konoha only lost 1 so they were not about to consider it. The death was a suicide after all. Suna went even further than anyone expected, they signed a full alliance with Konoha. Specially since Jiriaya had actually found out what happened to their missing Kage. It turns out that he was killed and turned into a puppet by Sasori the former student of Lady Chiyo in order to cause the war. He wanted a lot of dead bodies to chose from to make puppets and to prolong his life.
Onoki being the schemer that he was did someone no one expected, he simply said this. "Iwa will be allies with Konoha, if they agree that the child of the next Hokage married on his family. This will create a lasting bond." Hiruzen told him that the next Kage would actually be Minato Namikaze. Minato wanting to never fight Iwa in the near future or ever really. He agreed to it, if he had a son he would marry the next eligable daughter of Onoki's family line. He explained to Kushina who stormed off towards where Onoki was staying at. She simply kicked in the door, knocking out the guards and marched to Onoki who was looking rather pale. She took him by his head and lifted him in the air. "Let's get this straight! If my son marries he will live in Konoha or I will send you to your grave!" Onoki did not even wait a second to agree to it. Seeing that she got what she wanted cleared, she let him go and he fell to the ground. For the first time in his life he was glad that the next Kage was Minato. If it had been Kushina he would fear for his health.
In life not all plans happened as planned, and Mikoto's wedding had been one of those. Minato and Kushina were present at the wedding. Just not the way that they had planned. First change was that the date was moved, because Mikoto was 2 months pregnant. If you sleep with your significant other so many times, it was bound to happen. So the wedding turned into a double wedding. Tsume and Inoichi Yamanaka stood at the wedding as Minato's best man, and maid of honor. The real shock was that Hiashi Hyuga and his wife stood as the best man and maid of honor for Naruto's and Mikoto's wedding. It appears that Mikoto wanted to have peace between the two clans. Naruto agreed to it mainly because whatever would make his wife happy he would not even consider disagreeing. In the festivities afterwards he told his best friend, koji, and some of his other former classmates this very same explanation. Minato joked as told him that he was just married and he was already so whipped. "I like living in a happy home, you try it your way and you will see the wisdom of my next words. If mama is happy the family is happy, if mama is mad then the family will be sad." The best men of both Minato and Naruto could only tell the men present that Naruto was wise to see that. Hiashi even told them if the had someone tell him that at his wedding, his marriage could have been a lot happier. His wife was a beautiful lady, but if you really angered her. Lets just say that the first weeks of the marriage Hiashi spent them alone in a cold hospital room.
The ladies asked Mikoto what would they name their child. Everyone believed that the first child would have the parents names. She clearly told them. "If I have a daughter Yukina, but if I have a boy Itachi." They asked what if Naruto disagreed. "My husband will always do what makes me happy. He is just that sweet to me. If I decided it he will agree." Tsunade who was there for the free drinks joked with Orochimaru and Jiriaya. She flat out told them, "Well since we just finished a pair weddings. Why don't you and Orochimaru make it official and tie the knot already?" She asked Jiriaya in a drunken tone of voice. Orochimaru simply stared at her, "I have a better suggestion, why don't you marry him Tsunade?" Jiriaya was happy to hear that, only to hear her scream. "I wouldn't marry that pervert if he was the last man on the entire world!" she punched him with all her strength sending Jiriaya flying into the air in the direction of the female side of the public hot springs. A few moments later he was savagely beaten by the ladies bathing at the time.
