Hello all and welcome back to True Mentor. Glad to see how popular this fic is and hope it will continue to be popular. This chapter will do a chat with Tsunade, some bargaining, the arrival of someone special, and some fun for Naruto.

Oh, just for the record since people asked this, I have ZERO confirmation or evidence that the people I listed as Assassins or assassin supporters, locations of brotherhoods, or any of that actually exist in the Assassin's Creed universe outside of this fic. The Haitian Brotherhood is the only one I know is real, game canon wise anyway, while the other items are just speculation on my part as either being cool or seeming legit in the Assassin's Creed Universe. Although Sam Childers is a real person and doing what I said the African Brotherhood was helping him with.

Lastly, the early story before he was sent to Assassin's Creed's world is not quite canon as you will see. There are some changes, which were obvious in the first chapter since (as far as we know) Naruto was never physically abused just emotionally and mentally, and you will see more of them.

WARNING! Naruto will be extremely powerful in this where only some members of the Akatsuki could hope to take him on and I believe I have done it in a way for it to be believable. The reasons for this were made clear the first chapter and if you can't find where it was… then I'm not talking to you anymore. I am putting this warning now so no one will complain about being overpowered as the story goes.

Now that that's settled, let's start the show shall we?

Disclaimer: You know the drill; I don't own Naruto or anything but a few ideas, attacks, and maybe some characters. If I owned Naruto, there would be a CRA.

Chapter 3: Contract

Suna

Naruto walked with Gaara, Temari, and Haku with the new arrivals from Konoha in the form of Tsunade, Jiraiya, Shizune, Yugao, and Anko following them and he could already tell a headache was coming when they made it to the office as Jiraiya had whispered something and Tsunade had frowned and narrowed her eyes slightly and Naruto knew what it was about but would leave it be until they were in the office. However, that line of thought stopped as they came to a tower and found Kakashi and Sakura tied up with Kakashi having a noticeable black eye and Sakura having a bruise on her cheek while a female figure in a black hooded jacket, black gloves, brown knee high leather boots that had straps on the tops, an intricate bracer on her left arm that was partially covered by her jacket, a silver pocket watch from her inner black shirt to her jacket on the outside, the jacket ended in red with buttons on it that went down to her calves, and a small red cloak on her right shoulder. If one looked closely, they could see some bulges in her jacket and she had a cane that was gold on top in the form of a bird's head and was black with two gold rings between the head and the base which was also gold.

Tsunade frowned at the figure along with Gaara and Temari before Naruto spoke up, "What happened, Ghost-chan?" Naruto asked as he gazed at one of his twin, literally, apprentices of 1853 to when he had to leave in 1860 when word that America was on the brink of war with itself and Lincoln personally requested him to return and help resolve it faster and hopefully with less bloodshed than he feared would occur and then returned to aid her and her brother in 1868. He then left them again in 1890 when word spread about Templar movements in Cuba which led him to joining the Spanish American war and specifically Teddy Roosevelt and the Rough Riders, which is where he converted all of them to the Assassins and that helped when they returned home and spread out across the U.S. again.

You may be wondering how the hell she was here, well, you see, the thing is that Minerva decided to give another reward for his dutiful service and he was surprised at it and so was Haku since she got pulled with him.

FLASHBACK: DAY BEFORE

Naruto was relaxing in bed with Haku as they laid there, both were dressed, and Haku lied on Naruto's chest as he played with her hair. However, the two's moment was interrupted as Naruto's right arm glowed and a sphere appeared in it. Naruto frowned before he stood, "Naruto-sama?" Haku asked before the room was bathed in golden light and she and Naruto were in the world between and Haku looked around in awe and a bit of fear as she was afraid that these 'precursors' were going to take her Naruto-kun away again.

Her thoughts were broken by the appearance of Minerva and Haku had to admit that the woman was beautiful and had an aura of power, authority, and elegance to her and it was only furthered when she spoke, "Naruto, it is good to see you again. I have little doubt you are wondering what I am doing here." She stated and Naruto nodded with a frown before she raised her hand, "We are not going to take you away from here again, in truth we are going to reward you slightly." She stated and Naruto raised an eyebrow before another figure came and Naruto widened his eyes.

"Evie?!" He asked in shock and surprise and said woman removed her hood to show her cream skin with freckles and her brown hair braided and then wrapped around her head and greenish blue eyes. His shock increased as she moved up to him, while he thought she was going to hug him, and then kissed him right on the lips as she wrapped her arms around him. He widened his eyes slightly before he reciprocated it and she moaned as she invited his tongue and he obliged.

When they pulled apart, she rested her head against his chest, "I missed you Naruto." She stated as she held him and was happy he was holding her while Haku was wondering how they knew each other.

"Not that I'm complaining, or anything, but what are you doing here? I thought you had married Henry Green and were happy?" He asked and Evie blushed and looked down slightly while shifting uncomfortably before Minerva spoke up.

"She was to wed that man, but then they found that they loved different people and she began searching for you to tell you, but then you were in the middle of the Spanish American War and there was no transport going to America that wasn't being sunk by either the Spanish or Americans thus she was trapped and then you traveled again and she lost track of you before she found one of the artifacts and we brought her here after hearing her wish. Naturally we made contact with her brother to inform him of what happened to her and now you are here with her." Minerva stated as Naruto nodded and Evie got close to him again and hugged him, happy that she was with him again.

"And you didn't just let her see me as I came back here, why?" He asked incredulously and Minerva chuckled lightly.

"Time is all the same to us, as we speak to one person at one time we are watching a conversation between another and even still having another conversation with another person. When we brought you back here, we were talking with her and now we are allowing her to be with you. Besides, you could use the help if you wish to train others in the ways of the Assassins." Minerva stated with a smirk and Naruto snorted and nodded before the area faded away to show them back in his hotel room.

Naruto then turned to Haku, "Haku-chan, this is one of the many apprentices I took over the years, Evie Frye. Evie, this is my most recent apprentice and one of my girlfriends, Haku Momochi." Naruto stated and Evie turned to the other female and approached before shaking her hand.

"Nice to meet you Miss Haku, I hope you don't mind if I try my hand at being with Naruto as well." Evie stated with a smile and Haku returned it.

"So long as you don't try to monopolize his time, then I don't think me or Tsunami-chan will mind." Haku stated with a smile before Naruto saw how late it was.

"Well you two, we should probably turn in for the night." He stated and Haku grinned before she took Evie to the bathroom.

"Get comfortable Naruto-sama, we'll be out in a minute or two." Haku stated while pushing Evie into the bathroom while Naruto got the feeling he was going to another victim of Haku's attempts to tease him. His suspicions were confirmed as they both came out in their underwear with Haku in a red thong and bra and Evie in a black panty, garter, stockings, and bodice, "You like Naruto-sama?" Haku asked seductively and Naruto smirked and nodded.

"Yes, but you're still failing at making me bothered." He stated causing Haku to pout and Evie to giggle giving her an 'I told you so' look. The two then took their spots on the bed with their heads on his chest with Evie sighing contentedly as she had wanted to do this for a long time.

FLASHBACK END

Naruto broke from his thoughts by Evie speaking, "My apologies Mentor, but these two broke into your room while I was there and after I disabled them, I brought them here for you to decide what to do with since I am sure the Kazekage and Hokage are not pleased with their actions." Evie stated before planting her boot down on Kakashi when he tried to get up.

Naruto frowned at his two former teammates, "I see, Kazekage-sama, Hokage-sama, I hope you will do something about this." Naruto stated as he gazed at them both before attempting to walk forward only to kick Sakura to the side when she tried to head butt him and she was sent skidding back a good 10 feet while Evie and Haku fell in behind him as they entered the tower before Temari followed closely behind them and Gaara turned towards Tsunade.

"Hokage-sama, if they attempt something like this again against one of my personal guests then I will allow Naruto to handle whatever punishment he deems appropriate and I can promise that he is less lenient and forgiving than you may remember." Gaara stated as he walked into the tower and Tsunade glared at the two on the ground before turning to team Guy, who had shown up at seeing the ruckus.

"Take these two back to their hotel and if they try to leave except to return to Konoha, use whatever force you want to make sure they stay." Tsunade growled with a 'try anything to defy my orders and you will pay' look to Team Guy and they nodded immediately before dragging the two off to the hotel with them screaming about how unfair it was and everything.

The group of five entered the tower and went to the office to find Naruto there chatting away with Temari and the other two women and Gaara about little things before they turned to them and Naruto stood before he was engulfed in a hug by Shizune that caused Naruto to chuckle before he returned it before giving an acknowledging nod to Yugao and Anko before turning to his supposed godparents, who still seemed suspicious about him, "Before we begin, I would like to know why there is a Genjutsu over you, Naruto." Tsunade stated as she gazed hard at him planning to turn the person before her into a puddle of blood and guts if it was someone deceiving her.

Everyone, minus Jiraiya and Naruto, were confused before they then saw that there was a Genjutsu over him and Naruto sighed before his hand glowed gold and sealed the room again, "The reason I have Genjutsu is to hide some after effects I received from some powers I gained as I knew it would cause some concern for you." He stated before he released the Genjutsu and they widened their eyes slightly as he had black markings under his eyes with two teardrop lines going down his cheeks to his chin and one stripe going down his nose and lower lip over his chin. His eyes were also black with a ghostly blue iris, "I gained these from an object that gave me connections to three animals and I gained tribal markings from them and I have four more markings but I don't feel like removing my shirt to show them." He stated before he merely moved and took a seat since he figured no reason to hide anymore and waited for the others to take a seat ignoring the blushing women in the room, "Now, onto business."

He stated and the new arrivals all had to blink as they could swear they just saw the Sandaime or the Yondaime with the way he sat and spoke and they all began to sit with Naruto sitting with his back to a wall facing the opposite wall with his spot being between Evie and Haku with theirs being between Gaara's desk and the Konoha ninja, "I'll get right down to it, at the moment I have zero desire to return to Konoha." He stated getting pained and slightly surprised reactions from everyone.

"Naruto-kun, I know things were bad but…" Shizune started but didn't finish as Naruto held his hand up and shook his head.

"Bad is an understatement, which Yugao-san, Hokage-sama, and Jiraiya can attest to. Yugao can because she was one of my Anbu protectors and the other two can because I'm sure they read the Sandaime's personal journal." He stated and everyone noticed the three people stiffen slightly as Yugao remembered the events that she stopped and interfered in and the two Sanin because the Sandaime had been detailed in what had happened to Naruto while in his second term as he wanted his successor to have sympathy for the boy and help protect him and it had been… enlightening to them to say the least, "See, even they don't have the heart to try and make that reason. Despite what the Fire Daimyo has decreed or will try and enforce, they will never get over their hatred and will try things and even if they don't try it there are a few that will fake getting over it to gain favor with me due to the political connections, monetary wealth, and power I have but I can easily tell who is my real friend and who isn't so there will be no fooling me and it will infuriate them even more to the point they won't be able to take it and will lash out regardless of the consequences believing that the Council will still be able to protect them or that they will be so numerous the Fire Daimyo won't have the guts to condemn them all." He stated and they lowered their heads slightly since it was true.

"Then there is the fact that the Councils, regardless of the Daimyo's actions, will still try to get me under their thumb and a few would go so far as to threaten the Daimyo after I was 'tamed' as a Jinchuriki of the strongest demon with the skills and knowledge to back it up is worth at least 10 contingents of Samurai and/or Ninja." He stated and Tsunade and Jiraiya instantly knew he was referring to Danzo, "So really, there is no upside to going back to Konoha even if I were to count seeing the Konohamaru corps, Iruka, and the Ichirakus since the inheritance means nothing to me now as I have all the wealth and power I could ever want or need. Plus there is the fact that I would happily kill or break anyone who tried something against me and the Councils would just try to get me punished for it over and over again. So please do tell me what possible reason I could have to return to Konoha?" He stated and asked and the Konoha ninja looked down knowing that he broke possibly every argument there was.

Jiraiya then looked to him, "What about your promise to the Sandaime to be Hokage and to Konohamaru to pass the hat to him one day?" Jiraiya stated and the Konoha ninja perked up and Naruto snorted.

"When you read the Sandaime's journal, did you notice that there were some pages, days, or even a few hours of a day missing?" He asked and they frowned before Tsunade nodded, "What he left out in that spot or destroyed after writing it down to ensure Danzo could never get ahold of it, was that if I was made a Ninja and showed significant skill and the village showed no signs of changing their ways, then I was free to leave the village and my promise was void as he was not going to make me suffer to keep me in the village where he could try and help me. You already know from his notes that he had me hide my actual talent when the Academy began punishing me and collaborating with the villagers to hunt me any time I showed I was doing well in class and then made me swear to only show my talent if my life was on the line. I didn't against Kabuto and Orochimaru because I didn't know if you three were trustworthy or not since I knew you two had connections to the Yondaime and possibly someone that died in the attack from Kyubi so who knew which side of the fence you were on. I did show my skills against Sasuke, but I still held back since I didn't want him dead." Naruto stated and the Konoha shinobi all became shocked and saddened along with the others in the room, "Kono knows all about this, and probably more if he read the Old Man's personal journal that he kept in the Sarutobi Estates, and was accepting of it when we told him before the Chunin Exams and swore he would take over as Hokage and punish everyone that was cruel to me once he took over."

Naruto stated as the Konoha ninja deflated slightly since there was no clear way to get him to come back, "That being said, there MAY be a way to get me to go back." He stated getting them to perk up and for Gaara to raise an eyebrow.

"What is it?" Tsunade asked seriously, yet people could tell that she was joyful at the prospect of him coming back.

Naruto smirked and everyone felt this was not going to go as they had hoped, "A simple agreement and promise to conditions I have." He stated and they frowned before Jiraiya spoke.

"What are these conditions?" He asked and the others nodded and Naruto's smirk only increased.

"1) I only work for Tsunade and the Fire Daimyo, no one else will have authority over me and if a new Hokage should be chosen before I have decided to take or do take the title, then I am free from any and all obligations of this agreement and can leave the village to go wherever I please along with anyone under my protection and neither the Fire Daimyo nor the other Hokage can stop me nor can either of them or you force me to take any mission I do not wish to undertake. 2) I am free to leave the village at any moment if I have some work or task I feel I need to complete and as a courtesy I will inform you and/or the Fire Daimyo about it and in exchange I will agree to never become Konoha's or Fire Country's enemy so long as I am not provoked into becoming it. 3) I am free to defend myself from anyone that attacks me to the degree that I decide is acceptable regardless of their ranks, age, connections, or status. Meaning I can send them to the hospital or the morgue at my own discretion should they attack me and I cannot be punished, fined, or any such form or way for the Council or families of the fools to punish me. 4) I do not have to tell anyone anything about where I was or what I did while I was gone nor do I have to give a list of my skills or anything that I am able to do besides the generic information which is I specialize in assassination both high and low profile and being an army killer. 5) I am under NO OBLIGATION to do the CRA or whatever the Councils and villages call it and I am the only one that can choose which women I am involved with should I decide to marry or court any woman whether they are from Konoha or not regardless of who they are or what their status is. 6) I am to be given what is mine by birthright as the heir to the Namikaze and Uzumaki clans and anyone trespassing on my property, attempting to take what does not belong to them, or harassing an individual under my clan's protection is and will be considered hostile and I will deal with them accordingly to what I deem fitting and I will NOT be punished as they are trespassing, stealing, and harassing my people and I am able to claim protection over ANYONE regardless of who, or what, they are. 7) Every person, regardless of rank, status, or connections that stole or withdrew funds from the Namikaze and Uzumaki accounts are to reimburse me with 18 years' worth of interest added on. 8) I am to be given my council seats immediately as I should have been the moment I was of age to take them and no one may vote me out without the Fire Daimyo's and the Hokage's consent and I can take my seats back at any moment should I leave Konoha and return some time later. 9) If I do work for you and the Fire Daimyo then I am to get a rank to match that though it would be entertaining to see the looks on people's faces when they find out their being outdone by a Genin ranked Shinobi. 10) I want a way to show my skills thoroughly, which is why I wish to do an exhibition the day before the Chunin exams as a way to instill the knowledge that facing me is a bad idea and the rules are that anyone who enters the ring or interferes is in the fight till they either state they give up, they die, or they pass out and the same applies to me. However, if someone interferes then I am allowed to engage them regardless of where they are whether the Hokage booth or the stands. Also, if I do kill, cripple, maim, break, or crush an opponent I am free from any and all penalties that would come from it and this will be made known to all before anyone enters to fight me so they will have to accept the rules and such before entering. Anyone can team up or do whatever they wish when facing me so long as they remember the other rules. Lastly, Teams 7, 8, 9, and 10, while their Jonin senseis are optional if they wish to face me or not, MUST face me in one on one fights before anyone can contemplate ending the event for everyone."

He ticked off as he went and they all, meaning not Haku and Evie, widened their eyes since that was a lot, though they did become intrigued at his specialties, before Tsunade nodded knowing that it was about time Naruto got a fair shake and deal and this was as fair to him as it could be without it being on the verge of spoiling. She would be lying if she didn't want to know what happened to him though, but hoped he would decide to share it with them/her later on, "Alright Naruto, you have a deal." She stated happily making the others pause before they nodded as well before Naruto snorted and they grew confused.

"Nice try Tsunade-sama, but I want it IN WRITING with the Fire Daimyo's seal as well as the Hokage's seal and I want at least 5 copies made with the original and two copies going to me, one going to you, one to the Fire Daimyo, and the last to be put into the files. I am not taking anyone's word for anything since the Council will just declare it null and void the moment that I step foot into the village." He stated and the others caught on after their shock wore off.

"But if it has both seals on them then they can't do a fucking thing unless the Hokage and Fire Daimyo both agree to void the contract and that is not likely to happen since the Fire Daimyo's family has been friends with your clan for generations." Anko stated and the others agreed with her since that was unlikely to EVER happen.

Naruto nodded, "Give me that, verbatim, in writing with both seals on it, and I will know if you try to trick me, and I will go to Konoha if for no other reason than to give the exhibition." Naruto stated and Tsunade nodded her head before Naruto produced a full copy of the agreement with clear spots for Tsunade, the Fire Daimyo, and two witnesses for it and two spots for the seals to be applied. Tsunade blinked before she signed it followed by Jiraiya and Gaara as witnesses before Naruto took it back with him calling a large eagle to his arm and attached the contract and a quick note from Tsunade explaining things to the Fire Daimyo before sending it off at high speeds, "Good, should my feathered friend return with both seals on it then we will have an agreement. If he doesn't, well good luck tracking me down for when I decide to disappear." He warned and they nodded before Naruto began chatting with them, while making it clear he was not in the mood to talk about where he was.

Konoha: 2 hours later

The Fire Daimyo, Lord Nobunaga, sat in the Hokage office handing forms to his assistant to burn as it was merely more complaints from the councils wanting their power back or people wanting access to the Namikaze and Uzumaki clan funds. He rejected them all as he waited for news to come to him about the son of his late friends. When he had heard what happened to the boy, he had been furious, though not at the Sandaime like many would believe as the old man had been smart and sent him copies of all his actions against the people who tried to or did hurt Naruto and the records and witnesses (which were loyal shinobi of Fire Country) verified it so no one could pass blame on the dead man for their actions, and had taken action including executing a few people who dared to claim he didn't have the right to do what he was doing.

Anyway, since then he had Konoha teetering on the edge of a razor on whether he would liquidate the village or not and was only just barely able to keep the village's, and by extension Fire Country's, allies from leaving the alliances and was only even more furious as the Councils and several villagers blamed Naruto for it when he was the reason they even had the allies in the first place!

Then, then Tsunade sent him a letter asking for him to hurry to the village to take over for her so she could go to Suna and convince the boy to possibly return, but he had warned her that if she tried to force him to return then Konoha was sunk and was going to be nothing but a memory. He had read the Sandaime's journals and knew fully well what the boy endured here and was not about to let the boy go through it again. So now he was waiting for word from Tsunade about what was going on.

The saying speak of the devil and he will appear applied here as an eagle began tapping on the window of the office and he opened the window before taking a large scroll and note attached and read the latter first, Daimyo-sama, I have successfully made contact with Naruto and he has agreed to come to the village if the contract and terms he has outlined on the scroll are accepted by you and I with our seals of approval placed on them both. I already signed it and Jiraiya of the Sanin and the Kazekage have witnessed it, all that remains is your signature and for you to place both of our seals on the contract and send it back for Naruto to go over and ensure the Councils haven't been the idiots we know they are and have attempted something with it.

I hope that the contract will be sent back soon with acceptance as Naruto has stated he will disappear should his terms not be accepted and we will be hard pressed to find him again. Signed Tsunade Senju, the Gondaime Hokage.

He read and raised an eyebrow before he opened the scroll and read the terms and widened his eyes slightly before smirk made a way to his face, "Kushina, Minato, he really is your son: Every bit as cunning and sneaky as Kushina and every bit as political and protective as Minato." He thought to himself before he signed it before stamping both seals onto the document and giving it back to the eagle that immediately took off and flew away leaving the Fire Daimyo to only sit and look forward to the Chunin Exams starting in a few weeks and paused before he smirked again and began writing the other Daimyos, especially the one in Spring, and a few Kage to invite them to see the Chunin Exams as there was a special show going on the day before the finals that they would be most unhappy to miss.

Konoha: 2 days later

The Fire Daimyo stood at the gates to the village as the toad boss Gamabunta landed and Tsunade landed and bowed to him, "Tsunade-sama, I was expecting him to be with you." He stated while ensuring not to say his name as he didn't want to ruin the surprise.

Tsunade nodded, "I understand Daimyo-sama, but he had his own business to attend to and I had no right to pry." She stated while still knowing Kakashi and Sakura wanted to follow him and learn what he was doing but she forbid it and even if they wanted to defy her they couldn't because Naruto was staying in Suna for an indefinite time before heading out and the two couldn't hide in Suna long enough to follow him, "He informed me that he would be here a week before the finals at the latest and two weeks before at the earliest and requested that he be left alone until such time and he will talk with you, me, and anyone else he feels he should talk to when he is ready to do so." Tsunade stated and the Fire Daimyo frowned slightly before nodding and went to the Tower with Tsunade while she gathered the teams together again and addressed them, "Alright, Naruto will be here for an exhibition match the day before the finals." She informed and they all widened their eyes.

"Are we to disable him and take him to Inoichi for a mind wipe?" Kakashi asked since he wanted that to happen so he could get back at Naruto. However, his answer was in the form of scowls and killing intent from everyone but Sakura.

"That is NOT to happen, Kakashi and should you try that you will be executed for treason without trial." Tsunade warned and Kakashi grit his teeth and nodded while Tsunade looked over those assembled and they were the same except there was one additional member that stood in a black muscle shirt, a red Jonin vest, dark grey shinobi pants, black sandals, and had a headband around his head that pulled his black hair from his onyx eyes. This was Sasuke Uchiha.

Said Uchiha had been successfully retrieved when Kakashi, Anko, and the Shadow Clone of Jiraiya managed to catch up to Kabuto and he had to choose between leaving Sasuke or being captured. He chose the former, knowing that he was needed for his master to transfer to a new body since Sasuke wasn't going to be it this time, and the brat was brought back to the village where the Fire Daimyo, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and even his own mother Mikoto tore him a new one with the latter three beating him to a pulp, on three separate occasions, to get that superior attitude out of him and then he began to wake up slightly especially when Lee and Neji had showed him he wasn't such an elite and all powerful person by kicking his ass all over the place, literally in both senses in Lee's case. Since then, he had done a LOT of soul searching and therapy with Inoichi and his mother to get his head on right again and realized that Naruto was the closest thing for a friend and second 'brother' that he had and he had tried to kill him and now he was missing. After learning about what Kakashi did and what Sakura continued to do after Naruto vanished, he had become cold to the two and even told Tsunade that if they kept pushing it then he was going to send them to the hospital for the foreseeable future. The two finally got the message when Sasuke used his own variation of the Chidori that covered his body in lightning to shock the living hell out of them.

The reason he hadn't been on the rescue mission for Gaara was due to the fact he was on in the hospital after a routine mission with Genma, Kotetsu, and a man named Yamato went bad as Orochimaru sent some of his forces to try and recruit Sasuke and didn't take very well to his answer being no. He had only gotten out yesterday with the others too and now he was here before them, "Now, this is part of a contract and stipulation he made with me and the Fire Daimyo to work for him and I alone and you do not need to be aware of the details that it includes." Tsunade stated and they widened their eyes and nodded, with two doing so begrudgingly, "Another stipulation is that all of you before me, with the Jonin Senseis having the option to join in, will face him in one on one matches with Naruto making the rest of the rules clear just before the start of the event." Tsunade stated and everyone was shocked.

"That moron, he couldn't hope to win, he's just doing this to win my affection." Sakura stated in snobby tone and everyone, counting Kakashi, rolled their eyes.

"Actually Sakura, from what I understand he took down Kakashi rather easily and let's not forget that he beat both Sasuke and Neji when they fought him and that was years ago." She stated and noticed the others smirk while Sakura and Kakashi seethed, "As for trying to gain your attentions, I can definitely say he doesn't give a damn about you anymore since he has four women in love with him and in a relationship with him already." Tsunade stated, shocking them, as Naruto had told her that 'Angel-chan', Temari, 'Ghost-chan', and one other were currently with him and he wasn't going to risk their lives since certain parties in the room, Jiraiya and Anko, would cause trouble about it in their own way, "Anyway, you all can pick the order but know you may not be the only ones facing him since he will open it up to anyone who wishes to face him, though we are limiting it to only once chance per person, that is if Naruto doesn't kill the person in the match, and the exhibition will not end until he has faced each of you. You have the remaining weeks off to allow you to prepare and I suggest you use it well since from what we were able to gleam, this Naruto is far better than the one you all know and it will be costly for you to underestimate him." Tsunade warned and all but Sakura and Kakashi nodded in understanding before they began filing out and Tsunade sighed before the Fire Daimyo mentioned he would be back in the capital until 2 weeks before the exams and then would be here and she nodded before letting her thoughts drift to the handsome man that had once been the cute boy she knew and cared for.

Wave Country

"Naruto-kun!" Tsunami cried as she ran up and hugged him and he reciprocated by lifting her and spinning her around making her giggle before he set her down and gave her a kiss that made her knees weak. She then pulled back and took in his face and traced his markings and got lost in his now ghostly blue eyes, "More to tell me later?" She asked without seeming disturbed or afraid of his eyes and he smiled.

"Yes, I'll tell you in a little bit, but first I need to tell you about me going to Konoha." He stated and she frowned since she didn't like the idea of him going back to the place that was so cruel to him. Nodding, she took them inside while Naruto introduced Evie to Tsunami and Tsunami took a liking to the woman before Naruto told her about saving Gaara, encountering the Konoha nin, going back to Suna, training Haku, entering the contract with Temari, who had decided to stay in Suna until the matches, and then the discussion and agreement with Tsunade and the Fire Daimyo, "So I'll be going to and probably staying in Konoha afterward and wanted to know if you wanted to come with me or stay here. With my skills, I can easily come and visit you often or you can live with me and Inari can come with me or do that apprenticeship he wanted to do under Tazuna. Either is fine with me and we can make either work." Naruto stated and his girls smiled at his thoughtfulness and Tsunami kissed his cheek.

"I think I will go with you Naruto-kun, I lost out on five years with you because I was too scared to tell you, but I'm not making that mistake again. I'll come and live with you and Inari can decide what he wants to do then." She stated and Naruto smiled and nodded before giving her, Haku, and Evie a kiss to the cheek before he settled in and told Tsunami what he told Haku and the others so far and, needless to say, she was horrified and scared for him and immediately glomped him in a hug and cried into his chest a little while he and her two new 'sisters' calmed her down.

A while later, Inari and Tazuna came back and gave Naruto the reports from the network they had built with the traders, merchants, fishermen, and others that went from the country also being helpful in getting key bits of information and the bars and taverns were the best at local information gathering. Naruto nodded to them before he told him his plans and, naturally, Tazuna understood and wished him the best of luck and he was always welcome but Tazuna couldn't go since he was actually thinking of purposing to a woman he began dating a year ago and she had roots here. Naruto accepted and assured him he and Tsunami would be there for the wedding and would ensure they were kept informed of anything major that they should be.

Tazuna had accepted and Naruto then turned to Inari, who had been silent up that point, and he informed them that he would stay with his grandfather since he was learning how to be a builder and because he 'was going to be the one in charge of the spy network' in the future so it would be good for him to learn all about the network and help his grandpa. Naruto had accepted and promised to send him more notes for some ninja and other fighting techniques as well as to come and visit him and let him see Tsunami.

After that was settled, Haku and Evie went to help Tsunami pack while Naruto talked with Inari and Tazuna about some things and that he wanted information specifically on Jinchuriki, Akatsuki, Orochimaru, and any prisoners in the various ninja villages since he wanted to know anything and everything that could prove useful or hazardous to him and those he was protecting. The two understood and would put the word out through the various channels they had made in Wave for information to travel through and would report anything that they found.

One Week Later: Konoha

After the discussions with Tazuna and Inari, Naruto had gone to the Wave Daimyo to inform him of a few things and the Wave Daimyo also told him about the invite, which caused Naruto to smirk before he then finished his business and began helping Evie, Haku, Inari with their training since there was always more to teach especially to Inari. After 5 days of training and working, the group consisting of Tsunami, Naruto, Haku, and Evie set off for Konoha since they wanted some time in case Tsunami needed to rest as she wasn't used to moving at a professional's speed.

So now here they were walking towards the gates with some traveling passes that they had courtesy of Gamakichi wanting to be called and gave them to them from Jiraiya and Tsunade. As they neared the gates, they were stopped by the guards before they showed their passes which were given to dignitaries and people the Hokage did not want offended or stopped. The guards examined the passes before they were stopped by Kakashi, "The Hokage hasn't given any of these out. How did you get these?" Kakashi demanded hoping that he could get a chance to take Naruto before the Councils and imprisoned or get an opening to kill the damn boy.

Naruto merely snorted, "Lady Hokage sent them via Jiraiya's toads. Isn't that right Jiraiya?" Naruto stated and then asked as Jiraiya appeared next to him glaring at Kakashi.

"Yes, it is, and I do believe that Tsunade ordered no one to interfere with them entering the village, Kakashi." Jiraiya stated with a glare and Kakashi cursed inwardly as he didn't want the brat to get a shot at anything let alone a chance to outrank him, "Try a stunt like this again Kakashi, and I will ensure to let him handle it however he chooses to and also ensure no one interferes to save you." Jiraiya warned as he and the other walked away, after getting the passes, from a furious Kakashi as they walked through the village and Jiraiya decided to talk to his godson, "Do you need a guide to the place or did your parents tell you how to get there and get in?" Jiraiya asked lowly since they were already getting stares ranging from suspicion, to lust, to interest, to fear, and to the last being outright looks that would make Tsunade castrate a man if she saw him giving her the same look.

Naruto shook his head, "I know the way and the way to use the seals around and in the home so no guide is necessary, though the offer is appreciated." Naruto stated with a small smile and Jiraiya gave him one in return, "Go ahead and tell Tsunade that I'm here, but if I decide to talk to her between now and the even it will be by me coming to see her and not the other way around... at least for now that is." He stated and Jiraiya sighed and nodded knowing the kid/man deserved his space and it would probably take a while to go through everything in the house that his parents left behind.

After giving his nod of understanding, Jiraiya went to the tower while Naruto stopped and grabbed his three girls before vanishing from the street causing the people around them and the few people watching them from the shadows to widen their eyes. Naruto and them appeared outside the Namikaze estates and Naruto quickly undid the seal holding the gate sealed before entering with his girls and then relocking the gate.

As he looked over the grounds, he remembered how the Auditore Villa looked before Ezio began breathing life back into Monteriggioni in the late 15th century. Shaking those thoughts away for another time, he created an army of clones which began cleaning and clearing the area around the main house and guest houses already knowing what he would do with everything since his parents had told him about the unique seal arrays that were strewn throughout the property that reflected their own specialties.

As they approached the main house, Naruto had his girls stay outside stating that he needed to do something first and went to his father and mother's study to find the specific seal he needed to make this place his home. Finding it fairly quickly, as it was behind a portrait of his father and pregnant mother, he placed his hand and began using it. What made this seal unique, was that it worked as a sort of realistic mind controlling a mindscape in that it would alter and change the main building and guest buildings according to what he envisioned and his father added the touch that all the furniture would be moved to wherever on the property that he wanted it in case one room was changed to a new one.

As he began using the seal, he pictured the main building as his own version of the Auditore Villa with the standard necessities (kitchen, living area, dining area, etc.) were on the ground floor, the second floor was rooms, and the third floor was an office for him to use and go over things while also being a bird coop for his messengers as well as an area to keep his mementos from his time in the other world including weapons, armors, models, and more that should and would be honored. The basement was changed to a large underground area that connected the main building and the five guest buildings to resemble the area that Machiavelli had set up in Rome combined with the main hideout in Constantinople to give his future brotherhood a private training area as well as a way to get from house to house quickly and quietly if needed. The basement would also serve as a storage room for weapons and armor while also being a crafting area and free running section since the less Chakra any of his future students used when scaling a building or area, the better.

Nodding to himself as a clone outside popped to show him the outside which did in fact resemble the Auditore Villa, he began moving the furniture around and then went down the stairs while making a few more clones and giving them a scroll for them to place the items within where they were to go. As Naruto stepped out, he welcomed the ladies in and they marveled at the inside as the main entrance area was marble with a stair case leading to the next floor and marble columns were holding part of the second floor and to the right was a living area, to the left was a dining area, towards the back seemed to be a library and sitting area of some sort, and they also noticed some clones hanging paintings around the walls both on the first and second floors, "Welcome to the Namikaze Villa." He stated as he led them around showing them each room, with the ladies taking note of a bookcase in the office that had several books marked in roman numerals (though only Evie knew what those were), and Naruto concluded with showing them the underground which was fully stocked with different weapons, armors, tools, training areas, relaxing areas, and more that it could possibly replace the Academy if he wanted.

As they finished, he paused before heading to the gate and saw a bound and restrained Kakashi lying there, "I believe Tsunade, Jiraiya, and the Fire Daimyo warned you not to attempt anything concerning me or you were at my mercy. Yet you still come here, and attempt to try and enter my property without permission and just waltz in like you can go anywhere you please." Naruto stated and Kakashi grit his teeth and moved on the ground while still being restrained.

"This is NOT your property; you are NOT Minato-sensei's son!" Kakashi stated as he struggled more and Naruto snorted as he opened the gate before he squatted down for Kakashi to get a good look at him.

"Really? Because my father would never willingly sacrifice someone else's child if he wasn't willing to do it to his own; I opened the blood seals holding this gate closed; I activated the blood seals that allow me, as the new head of the Namikaze and Uzumaki Clan, to change the buildings and landscape as I please; I know my father's techniques, I know my mother's techniques; I have the ancestral armor of the Uzumaki Clan that only a true heir of the clan can wear; I have my father's blades that he used when he wasn't destroying people with the Rasengan and Hirashin which are also blood locked to a true heir; and I have the Sandaime's and Tsunade's own personal findings with blood tests to prove that I am his son. You just can't see passed your own grief and hatred, not that I care. You've never taught me anything anyway, so why would I ever consider you a sensei to begin with?" Naruto explained with Kakashi gritting his teeth in frustration before Naruto then grabbed his throat and lifted him bringing him face to face, "Now I'm not gonna do anything this time since I figure you're going to want to fight me at the stadium in a few weeks, which I look forward to since I can crush you like the insignificant worm you are. However, if you come here again uninvited then I will send you to the hospital and you will end up remaining there for the foreseeable future." Naruto warned before he Shunshined to Tsunade's office surprising her and Team 8, who were there for any D rank/busy work missions before he then tossed Kakashi on the ground, "Keep him on a tighter leash, next time he tries to enter my estate without an invitation, he'll be put into the hospital. If that persists then he's going to the morgue."

Naruto stated before he vanished again and Tsunade leveled a glare at Kakashi, "I warned you to leave him alone and not to do anything outside of facing him in a match the day before the Chunin Exams." Tsunade stated angrily as Kakashi continued to thrash while Team 8 glared at him.

"It doesn't matter; Naruto has no right to live in the Namikaze Estates! He is not Minato-sensei's or Kushina's son and I will not have him defiling their home." He stated as he kept thrashing before Tsunade smacked him down to the ground hard stopping his struggling.

"You idiot, he is their son and you will not attempt to get in there again or so help me I will let Naruto do what he threatened to do without any consequences coming down on his head for it. You may have been a Jonin, but that doesn't mean you aren't disposable and we can get along fine without you should the need arise." Tsunade stated before she grabbed him and flung him out the window before she sat down with a sigh escaping her lips, "What happened to you, Naruto-kun?" She thought before blinking slightly, "Wait, Naruto-kun?! Where did that come from?! Am… am I falling for a boy/man that I could be his mother or even his grandmother?!" Tsunade thought to herself before remembering Team 8 in the room and turned her attention back to them while hoping that she could talk to Naruto at some point soon.

2 weeks later: Konoha stadium

The stadium was packed as everyone heard about the massive exhibition match that was going on the day before the Chunin Exams and everyone was there from shop keeper to council member, from Genin to Jonin, the Chunin hopefuls to Daimyos and Kages. Naturally the Konoha 11/12 were there since they were to take part in this exhibition and they were all pretty excited to see what Naruto would be able to do… well, except Sakura that is.

Naturally, everyone noticed the extra Daimyos including Wave, Wind, Fire, Earth, Lightning, Snow, and some of the minor ones then there was the Hokage with her assistant Shizune and Jiraiya the Sanin, the Kage of Waterfall with a green haired woman and a slightly older woman with brown hair, the Tsuchikage with his son and granddaughter, the Kazekage with his sister and brother, and the Raikage with his brother and a blond woman that had a feline like aura to her. However, people also wondered why there were three women hiding their faces up in the Kage booth next to the Hokage and Kazekage.

As discussions and murmurs began echoing throughout the stadium, Tsunade sat there waiting for Anko to tell her that Naruto was here so she could begin the announcement. She idly thought of the last two weeks and no one had seen Naruto at all as he was locked in that estate of his only appearing to drop off any trespassers, mainly Sakura and Kakashi, while a few were sent to the morgue due to them being thieves attempting to get into the Namikaze estates. Many had broken bones, concussions, bruised and battered ribs, internal bleeding, cuts, severed tendons, and more to the point that Tsunade was considering teaching him how to be a medic since he clearly had the anatomy knowledge of where to hit, break, and cut to not kill but cause a lot of pain.

Her thoughts were broken by Anko coming and telling her he was waiting before she went to the stands to watch and maybe compete. Tsunade then stood and walked to the railing making everyone quiet down, "Greetings guests and villagers and welcome to a special exhibition fight for the Chunin Exams. Now you all may be wondering who is fighting and what the rules are? Well, for half of the first part, we have someone special that was a part of our village at one point and now is show casing his skills to show why the Fire Daimyo and I agreed to have him only work for he and I with NO ONE ELSE having authority over him." She stated as many began to murmur to each other while the Council members seethed at someone being beyond their control, but felt they could circumvent that by removing the contract once it was seen who it was "I am pleased to reintroduce, Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze."

She stated as Naruto stepped out decked in his mission clothes which were what he wore before but now you could see a small axe in his belt, his pistols on him, a weird wooden item sticking over his shoulder with a crossbow hilt pointing up too, on his waist was a sword hidden by a sheath, several pockets were on his person, a knife handle was in his belt as well, and he had his hood pulled up. On que, the crowd from Konoha began shouting about lies, the Iwa nin all became pale and afraid, the Kumo nin became interested, those Naruto had helped all looked on in shocked joy, the few in Konoha that were on his side were happy, and the Councils were scowling at the demon brat being back.

After a few moments of the shouting, Naruto sighed before he flexed and EVERYONE shut up as the air became thick with Killing Intent scaring the hell out of everyone as Killing Intent grew in power and thickness for each person you killed and your own desire to kill. Those who cared for the blonde were the most shocked since they had never felt such thick and heavy Killing Intent in their lives, "Good, you're all paying attention. Now, my name IS Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze despite what you want to believe and state and I have proven such by accessing the Namikaze Estates and even Jiraiya and Tsunade state that I am with the Fire Daimyo backing them up since the Sandaime knew the truth as did the Councils since they knew my father would never seal Kyubi into a child if he wasn't willing to use his own.."

Naruto stated with many gritting their teeth at him and he smirked, "Now, this exhibition match has no proctor because the only way to win is to knock out, kill, or make the opponent say that they give up. Anyone can face me and can even try to kill me if they want and can attack in groups with the exception of the Konoha 11 and their senseis. Now before any of you get it into your thick heads that you will have free reign, know that I can kill you too regardless of where you run or if you join in. If you attack or enter this arena then you ARE my opponent and I will fight you until one of the criteria for losing is met. Also, due to the Fire Daimyo's and Lady Hokage's seals and agreement to the contract that this is a part of, I am FREE from all liability if I kill, maim, injure, or cripple anyone and can do so regardless of their rank, political power, family, or connections and no one can seek retribution against me and, as luck would have it, EVERY SINGLE DAIMYO HERE HAS SIGNED OFF ON IT! Meaning regardless of if you are foreign to Konoha or not you will NOT be able to get compensation from me or anyone else for that matter for any deaths or injuries I cause here."

He stated and many paled in fear at the demon being able to kill them without anyone being able to do anything about it as everyone saw the various Daimyos nod their heads confirming what he said was true, "Next anyone who attempts to attack me after the match has clearly been decided will be beaten to an inch of their lives if I am feeling nice and anyone who has lost can NOT try again so get that out of your heads now as well. Next even if you are in the stands and you attack, I can attack you there regardless of who is around you or where you try to run so there is no safe place for you in here and I will even hunt you down in the village if you should try to run for it." Naruto stated with his smirk increasing at the many scared and paled faces of the villagers, "Now that that has been stated, this exhibition will not end until all Konoha 11 have faced me and lost, with the added stipulation that it will continue to their senseis as well, or until I lose." Naruto stated making sure everyone heard him clearly before he popped his neck audibly, "Now that that has been settled, we can begin. Send the first of the Konoha 11." He stated and there was silence for a bit before footsteps echoed out and he saw his first opponent causing him to raise an eyebrow, "Really? They chose you to go first?" He stated as he didn't see why they would other than just to get it out of the way.

DONE! Hope you all enjoyed and next time will be mainly just a fighting chapter as Naruto shows everyone why you don't mess with him, though naturally there will be some idiots that will push their luck.

So as you saw, I did in fact add Evie here as I talked with one guy about her and then looked up different wikis on her to get her somewhat understood by me and she is with Naruto, but she is the only one that I plan to have added.

Yes, I had Sasuke be around and get a wakeup call but he is still gonna get some bad days from people since he was kinda an asshole to people.

Next, I have taken up a challenge from another author that is a dark/cunning Naruto that absorbs Orochimaru like Sasuke did when Naruto gets between said Sanin and Sasuke in the Forest of Death and gains all of his knowledge, powers, and skills and decides to use it to his advantage. I feel like writing it soon, so if you're interested then be on the lookout for it when I decide to post.

Anyway, that should be it for this time, please review.
