WARNING: The world map will be changed a bit to help fit the story. To be more precise I will be adding a landmass close to The Reach. I will be using some Naruto characters, but not all. And yes, I created some names to help the added Naruto characters better fit in the world but keeping a bit of their origin from Naruto. Also, no chakra but yes to magic.
Uzulaeron. Noble Dragon Lords from Valyria. A house that practice peace, loyalty, and family with a strong fist to back it up. They were one of the more powerful houses that inhabited Valyria. When the great doom occurred, they were lucky to escape with their dragons, vassals, a few lesser houses, and people to new lands. Traveling thousands of miles across the seas they reached a massive, inhabited island which they agreed to colonize and rebuild.
To be better than they were before and that's what they have done. Using inventions and knowledge they had from Valyria, they built a great fortress surrounded by a city, a few cities along the island, and three different ports. Farming along the southern lands and harvesting material along the northern mountain lands.
It wasn't until much later that they learned that to the east of them were the lands of the seven kingdoms with the Kingdom of the Reach being the closest. Lands that they could see but decided not to involve themselves with due to the doom. They felt that they must repent for not stopping the doom from occurring, so they maintained neutrality in the events that occurred there. Even when the Targaryen's begun their conquest.
It took time but the Targaryen's did conquer the seven kingdoms, but they knew better to extend that reach to the newly created eight kingdoms. Dragons against dragons would end in their defeat as while they had three the Uzulaeron had six large dragons at the moment. It was also well known that Targaryen's could not control Uzulaeron dragons, and vice versa. So, they did the next best thing. They formed an alliance allowing for the Uzulaeron's and their kingdom 'The Maelstrom' to remain neutral and free. The Uzulaeron's were even allowed to practice the law of providing asylum. If the crime wasn't severe, people could escape to their lands to seek asylum. If they were severe, then they would be handed back to the land's guards for trial and punishment.
It seemed like things were going amazingly for the house when disaster struck again. A virus flew through some of the kingdoms. This strange virus started killing off people, animals, and even dragons were affected by this as well. They finally came up with a cure for it but by then the virus had made its mark. It killed off the dragons of the Uzulaeron's and most of its house members. It took a lot of time for the kingdom to recover and for House Uzulaeron to maintain its position and strong grip on power. They help assert their power by their connections, large army, and having the most powerful fleet in the world. With their place secured they went on to repopulate and grow the house when the unfortunate happened.
From within the massive castle known as Freedom's Shield, in the city of Lighthall, of the Kingdom Maelstrom, House Uzulaeron members were surrounding a sick man in a bed. The sick man was called King Minato Uzulaeron after marrying Queen Kushina Uzumaki. Being struct with a strange sickness he was confined to bed, and it seems like his end is not far. The fortunate thing was that it wasn't contagious but in return, there was no cure. It was the reason why they didn't attend the Targaryen King's torny. Minato's end was coming now.
Minato laying in bed, looked around as his loved ones surrounded him until his end so he wouldn't be alone. To his right stood his teacher and mentor, the great Jiraiya. A swordsman and leader like no other. Next to him stood the house maid and healer Tsunade Senjru. A woman of Valyrian decent like her house name who was monitoring his health. Regardless of what of the fact that he states it's not her fault, he knew she felt at fault and useless.
To his left sat his queen, his wife Kushina Uzulaeron holding his hand with tears coming down her face. He knew that this was breaking her heart, but she would survive. She is strong and with what they created together, would be there to support her. Their one and only young son of nine summers Prince Naruto Uzulaeron, who was standing behind his mother with his hand on her shoulder and tears down his face. Behind him with his hand on his back for support was his uncle and Kushina's brother Nagato Uzulaeron watching on in a pained face.
While young, Naruto knew the meaning of death. His house hair color, being red, covered his head in a similar fashion to his father's but with a small ponytail starting to grow at the end. Using his blue eyes to scan his pale father's frame, he felt helpless like everyone here. The one enemy that no could beat, which is death. Magic can stall it, but death will have its due eventually.
"I can feel my end coming. So, listen to my final words and request" spoke softly Minato as everyone leaned in close to hear. "Love and protect each other for the world would try to tear us apart. Remain true to our beliefs and yourself. Know that I love you all with every bit of my being and soul.
Kushina. My love. My Queen. I'm sorry I have to leave you so soon. But I know that you can lead our Kingdom with ease until our son is ready to take the mantle. Know that I love you and support any choice you make.
Naruto, my boy. I know life is unfair. Most of all to our house but we are resilient. Remember our house's words. Honor, loyalty, and respect to our family first. And our people always. I will be leaving you before witnessing so many first for you, but I will leave you with a final gift and a way to protect you" he stated before weakly lifting his hand to point at a medium size chest nearby.
Knowing his father wanted him to bring it over, he walked over to it and attempted to lift it up, but it was too heavy for him. Seeing him struggle Nagato and Jiraiya walked over and helped him bring it over to Minato's bed.
"Open it" he whispered to which Naruto did. To the shock of everyone in the room, there were nine dragon eggs neatly placed inside. Naruto looking back at his father in shock, Minato continued "after I pass on to the next life, spread your blood on the eggs, and place them on my funeral pyre to be set on fire with me. My final gift for you shall reveal itself" he finished as Naruto nodded.
Minato took a deep breath before looking up at the ceiling. "I can feel it…. I feel warm and at peace. Safe…. They say you die alone but with everyone here…I'll never feel alone… I feel…home" he finished with a whispered as his eyes closed for the final time. The sound of thunder and rain from outside covered the sounds of cries from the room. But when the church bell rang signaling his passing, not even the that could cover the sound of the city's cries from the lost of their king. It seemed like Heaven and Earth cried from the loss of a good and pure soul.
Funeral
Like the day of Minato's passing, it was raining as the different Houses of the Kingdom and the normal residents gather to attend Minato's send off. House Uzulaeron dressed in their house colors being pitch dark blue with red lining watched as everyone paid their respects. With their respects given, with Nagato's help, Naruto place the nine eggs with his blood on them, in Minato's pyre. The two said their final goodbyes before stepping back as Kushina approached with the flaming torch.
"Goodbye my love" she spoke lighting the pyre on fire and stepping back to stand next to her son. Even with the rain fighting it, the pyre soon caught on fire with the flames going strong.
It felt like hours as everyone watched the flames raging in the rain, but they didn't care. They will all stay there until the last flame goes out in respect and love for the man. When the flames finally did die down to embers and smoke, people started walking away.
Naruto was about to be pulled away by his mother, when he felt something calling out to him. This feeling was something he couldn't and wouldn't dare ignore. It felt equal to cutting off a piece of his soul to do so. Softly breaking free from his mothers' grasps, he walked up to the remains of the pyre. As he got closer, the feeling grew within him until he was directly in front of it.
From within the remains movement could be seen by him, much to his confusion. The first thought that came to mind and out his mouth was "dad" when a small head popped out of the remains. A head that was not his father's or even human. He couldn't utter a word in shock as the rest of the being climbed out and wobbled up to his feet.
"No way" he muttered staring down at the creature as everyone else could see it now as well and was in shock as well. Kneeling down he placed his hand out for it as it sniffed it for a second and then rubbed its head against it. "A dragon" he spoke as the dark red with gold/orange lining animal ran up his arm and curled around his neck in a purr. It was then suddenly followed by eight more heads popping up from the remains and them running up to him to climb up him.
With the sudden added weight and movement, he fell on his butt as they all clung and purred at him. "Dragons" he corrected as Kushina stepped up to him and looked down at them in shock.
The dragons seeing her gave a quick sniff of her scent before going back to cuddling Naruto. "His final gift" she stated. "He brought back dragons to the world. To House Uzulaeron. To you" she smiled.
While most were staring at the scene in shock, two men were not. Jiraiya and Nagato had already swung into action knowing the implications of what happened.
"GUARDS! Round up everyone here!" shouted Nagato. He continued on as the guards began moving into action. "No one is to leave this area until my order is given."
As Nagato was helping to secure everyone, Jiraiya was swooping in with a large cloak to place it around Naruto and the dragons. As he approached them the dragons, detecting his presence, gave a warning hiss to which he ignored. He faced things far larger and stronger than a baby dragon. With the cloak wrapped around Naruto, he signaled the nearby carriage to come.
It was upon seeing Jiraiya and her brother moving into action, Kushina snapped out of her own trance to take action of her own. With Nagato handling the situation here, she helped Naruto up who was holding the dragons and moved him inside the recently arriving carriage. She followed that up by ordering Jiraiya to assemble her council to the royal conference room, while she settled Naruto into his chambers. With her order received, she climbed into the carriage as a guard escort, escorted them back into the castle in a rush.
"You know that even with forcing everyone to be quiet about what happened here, word will reach the rest of the kingdom and the world" stated Jiraiya walking up to Nagato.
"That may be so, but we can at the very least stall it to better prepare ourselves. Just as good of a thing that this happened, it could cause bad things as well" Nagato answered looking at his old teacher. Like Minato, Nagato was also trained by Jiraiya. It was during that training that he met another person training underneath him, who became his wife. Konan.
"That mad Targaryen King" he answered as Nagato nodded. "He would want them even if he knows he can't. Uzulaeron dragons don't obey anyone who is not from House Uzulaeron."
