2. Small clans like the Uzumaki and Senju clans will have be under the CRA.
Minato Namikaze and his wife Kushina Uzumaki were in a hidden cave outside the village preparing for the arrival of their son. The main reason why they were outside the village was because of how potent and demonic the nine tails charka gave off towards the last week of her pregnancy. There were only a few people who knew she was pregnant and fewer knew Minato was the father of the baby. Upon the baby being born the nurse took the baby to the hospital to start checking him over to make sure he was healthy and that he didn't have any fox features like fur or a tail. Meanwhile Minato was trying to convince Kushina that they should name the baby after one of the main characters in his sensei's books. However, Kushina disagreed saying she didn't want her baby named after any main characters of one his pervert sensei books, she never genuinely liked Jiraiya and didn't want her child to be anywhere near that man. While pleading with his wife the alarm that was connected to Konoha's barrier went off meaning that the village was under attack by a powerful force. Minato and Kushina looked at each other and while she wanted him to stay she knew that he was the Hokage and that he had to go. As soon as Minato left the room a hooded figure body flickered in the room and took Kushina outside of the cave.
Thinking she was being saved Kushina started to thank the person but upon them turning around they stabbed her in the stomach with a sword. Quickly she swung at the person but the person moved away giving her some distance. "Why..why would you do this?" asked Kushina as she pulled the sword out of her stomach. "I can't let this opportunity to kill you slip pass me plus I get to see Konoha burn" said the figure in a distorted voice. Kushina whose was in nothing but a night gown picked back up the sword and the hooded figure pulled two swords. Taking advantage of Kushina's weakened state the mask individual pressured her into making a mistake which led to Kushina being stabbed in the chest though the person who aiming for her heart. Once missing the killing blow Kushina used her charka chains to kill the figure and after seeing the person wasn't moving she fell to the ground bleeding and tired.
Kushina desperately needed a doctor so she started crawling towards the village hoping to see someone. After a few minutes she saw someone coming towards her unfortunately the person who was coming towards her was wearing a Hannya mask and before Kushina could fully process this she was knocked out. "I am sorry lady Kushina but you have soiled the Uzumaki name" said a feminine voice. Two more figures landed besides her "We need to place the beast inside of a better host one that will be loyal to us and not this village" said a male voice. The last person took out a scroll and unsealed what was inside of it "Is that her baby?" asked the person wearing the Hannya mask. "Yes this is indeed the heir of the Royal Uzumaki bloodline and from the seal he currently has on his stomach he has the Yang part of the nine tails while we have this moment let's put the Yin part in him" said the man holding the baby. The other two nodded their heads and all three went through hand signs and placed their left hand on Kushina and the right on the baby filtering the potent charka that was killing them into the baby turning it pure.
-Meanwhile within the village-
Konoha was under attack by two different forces on one side was Rōshi and Han who was leading Iwagakure ninjas into the village. While on the other side were mindless figures wearing Oni masks that were attacking everyone and destroying important buildings like hospitals and schools. Things got worse when Rōshi went full tailed beast mode and started using his lava release to burn all those who opposed them. Han on the other hand decided to use his stream release to blind the Konoha ninjas making it hard for the ninjas of Konoha to see anything in front of them resulting multiple accidents between Konoha ninjas and the Oni mask figures getting the jump on them. During the battle the Konoha ninjas had learned a few things: One was that this battle was a three-way battle seeing as the demons attacked everybody, two the Oni mask freaks weren't human since they blew up upon being killed, three they needed to keep their distance away from the demons because when they died a poisonous gas came from the demons, and lastly but most importantly was the fact that they were underprepared for an attack on the village. While fighting everyone on the Konoha side was wondering where either of the Hokages were at since they were their best bet to win. Fortunately, an unlikely ally in Orochimara showed up on top of Manda and attacked Son Goku making the giant red lava monkey focus on her. This made the Anbu members and others focus on Han however the man was no push over and with Orochimara here now the man decided transform in Kokuo the five tail Horse. This horrified everyone as the giant horse started gulping through the village towards Orochimara. However, the snake Sannin didn't come alone and Kukuo learned this the hard way when the slug Sannin fist connected with one of the Jinchuriki legs breaking it.
-Over with Minato-
While on the way towards the village Minato had been attacked by the Assassination Iwa Anbu core who all used explosion jutsus. This was the same group that Minato had fought against in the Third Shinobi War and was almost forced into retirement by them. Knowing that he needed to take care of them first Minato fought and killed each member one by one though this came at the cost of one of his hands being badly burnt. Minato couldn't keep his attention on this because he noticed that his village was being attacked by what he perceived to be Iwa ninjas, two tailed beasts, and Oni masked monsters. Not thinking clearly, he made the dumb decision to try to seal the four tails within his son to save his village. After he decided on this course of action he went back to where he left his son and wife only to see his wife dead, two Uzumaki members dead, and a person wearing a weird mask standing over his child. Steeling his heart and emotions he killed the person standing over his son and then took his son to the battlefield.
-Inside the village-
When Orochimara saw Minato she asked, "Where is Kushina and why do you have my godson near the battlefield?" however she received no answer. Minato threw his kunai and teleported himself, his son, and Son Goku away from the battlefield this upset Orochimara who had gone after the man leaving the Konoha ninjas to deal with the demons and Han.
-Training Ground 44-
When the three were teleported, they were split up inside the Forest of Dead. Rōshi knew of this forest and did something he usually doesn't do and summoned his tailed beast to protect him since his danger senses were going haywire as he heard wildlife all around him. For Minato it was different he knew where he at and was currently cursing the fact that he brought his son to the Forest of Death due to his hands being burnt. Looking around Minato heard and saw the animals of the forest attacking Rōshi and Son Goku in Minato's mind he needed to act quickly to kill the container. Minato already knew that half the nine tails was already placed within his son however from what he remembered he knew that the seal should be able to hold multiple tailed breasts within it. Seeing that Rōshi was distracted Minato quickly hit Rōshi with the rasengan and then went through hand signs quickly to do a forbidden jutsu that should steal the charka from a jinchuriki however it would cost the target his/her life although at this point Minato didn't care. While Minato was a fuinjutsu master he wasn't experienced at sealing, unsealing, or even resealing a tailed beast alone like the Uzumaki clan head. Once finishing Minato yelled out "Fuinjutsu: Reaper Death Seal" however what was supposed to happen didn't. Minato felt like his body was being squeezed and his soul being ripped from his physical body. Minato started panicking when all he saw was darkness, Rōshi, and Son Goku which immediately made him start looking around to find out where his son was at. Minato looked left, right, and down, however something told him to look up.
Lifting his head up slowly what Minato saw wasn't the Shinigami rather it was a woman in white dress with black hair and red eyes holding his son which disturbed him. He knew he did the correct hand seals however this being was indeed not the one called Shinigami and it gave him a feeling of death and despair. "Yo..You're not the.. Shinigami" said Minato who was breathing hard and confused as his voice echoed and he saw three of himself however the other two looked hollow. The woman smiled wickedly at the man and then turned back to the baby "Indeed I am not that boring old man I am Yami the one you have summoned" said the deity rocking the baby. Both Minato and Rōshi were confused on who she was since they had never heard about her before but once Son Goku heard her name he tried to run away however the ground swallowed him into the ground. Rōshi tried to get up however most of the charka in his body was taken from him leaving him in so much pain he couldn't move.
Yami watched the man struggle for a minute before turning towards Minato smiling creepily which unnerved the 4th Hokage however he pressed on forward "I didn't.." said Minato however she covered his mouth. "Shh who really cares who you were trying to summon I am here and in exchange I'll bless this boy here with the charka of Son Goku" said Yami. Before she did this though someone she didn't want to see showed up stopping her "Shinigami what are you doing here?" asked Yami with a disgusting look on her face. The Shinigami looked around before answering "As the King over death I cannot allow you to place the full four tails within that baby nor can I allow you to take the souls of any of these men as that is my job" said the man in a serious tone. Well, that's too bad since I was summoned here to do a job" replied Yami upset that she was being stopped. A stare down ensued between the two however before they could come to blows both felt a powerful force appeared by them. When they looked over floating there was one Hagoromo Otsutsuki someone both wanted to avoid.
"I must agree with Shinigami-san if that baby is giving that type of power it could grow to be the ender of this world" said Kami. Seeing that she was going to be overpowered and her plans could be ruined Yami quickly took the prince, half of Son Goku's charka, and disappeared from the area. "DAMN IT she going to fuck things up and make my job even harder with that damn child!" yelled an outraged Shinigami. "Don't worry my friend she only took a part of Son Goku's charka" stated Hagoromo. Roshi, Minato, and the Shinigami were confused however two of them couldn't speak from shock "Please explain". Hagoromo laughed for a moment before explaining "She only took part of Son Goku's charka this will only boost the child's charka but will not give him the abilities that Son Goku gives to its host". "So, what's the plan? Because we need to stop her and whatever plan she is coming up with" stated the King of the dead. "That's easy using our powers we shall create a new soul, body, and place Son Goku within said body so it'll be able to help the child save this world" answered Hagoromo.
"I'm sorry to interrupt but I have another child" stated Minato. "Wait the child she just took wasn't your only child?" questioned Hagoromo. "No, my wife and I got around from time to time my other child currently should be with the Uchiha clan" explained Minato to the two deities. Shinigami looked in his book to see when the child was born and found that the child was born earlier this morning. "Minato Namikaze you may not be able to join you wife in paradise but I will not send you to hell" said Shinigami shallowing Minato's soul he then turned to Kami. "The child was born this morning however due to unknown reasons that are being investigated the woman died after giving birth to the child" explained The Shinigami. "So, the reincarnate of my sons are born this is" Hagoromo stopped feeling something off like he was missing something. Where is the child now?" asked Kami looking around. "He is currently being watched over by the Uchiha clan however you could easily get to him" informed the Shinigami. Hagoromo started to leave but was stopped from an important question "Do you think this child will be enough?" asked the Shinigami. "I plan on blessing him with Senju genes in years to come he will awaken a powerful dojutsu that will save this world" answered Hagoromo before disappearing.
-Meanwhile with Yami-
Looking down into her arms she spoke to the baby "I can't wait to see how strong you will be and to see what path you take" said Yami as she started to place the charka of the four tails within the child. However, Yami noticed that the Kitsune known as Kurama was fully sealed the boy. She cussed before deciding that the baby's DNA would have to be changed to hold all the charka without almost kill him nor causing any future problems. Summoning a table with seals she placed the baby down and entered his body though the seal she put on the baby. Once Yami left the area Orochimara who was watching picked up the child taking him to the Senju/Uzumaki joint compound. The other clones she made had found the bodies of Minto, Kushina, and Roshi so the clones took all three to the compound as well.
-Inside the seal-
Kurama was locked behind a cage that appeared out of thin air. The kitsune was wondering what would happen next until he saw a blight light and a person appeared in front of him. "Well, hello there" said Yami standing outside the cage. Seeing the being Kurama charged at her however was stopped by the cage "YOU!" yelled Kurama trying to break through the cage and end the deity. Yami kept her distance and had a look of disgust on her face "If it isn't the King of the kitsunes Kurama the so-called mighty fox but look at you now stuck in a cage like the animal you are" said Yami glaring at the fox. Kurama just growled at the woman however this didn't faze her "Look here foxy I have a job to do and blesses to give so be a good animal and MAYBE I'll let your brother live" said the Yami however she didn't get the reaction she wanted from the kitsune. Looking down where a chibi version of Son Goku was supposed to be was only a ball of charka. "Let me guess you grab a part of his charka and not his physical form" commented Kurama. When he got no response he started laughing at the deity "Shu...Shut up you stupid fox everyone knows you can't seal two tailed beasts within a human" said Yami stomping away embarrassed. This made Kurama laugh harder knowing that Yami's plan backfired on her.
-DNA and Charka Coils-
Yami teleported to where the boy's coils and DNA were planning to change everything about the boy so that he would be the prefect vessel for her plans. The first thing she did was place Son Goku's pure red charka into the boy natural charka system turning it purple and making it potent. While looking at his charka coils she noticed that Kurama's charka was slowly being intertwined with his meaning that his charka would over time become demonic. She then looked at his DNA and noticed that he had a suppressed bloodline that wouldn't have been activated, which she found interesting so she changed it so that the boy could activate it in the future. After looking over the results she was kind of surprised to know that whatever the boy was supposed to look like now changed dramatically. The only thing she couldn't change was the fact that she couldn't get rid of the fox without taking power away from the young Uzumaki. However, after thinking about the problem for a minute, she come up with an idea that the Shinigami nor Hagoromo would like but she didn't give a fuck. While giving her blessings she noticed that the boy already had the kekkei genkais of the Royal Uzumaki clan which excited her. She was going to enjoy watching the boy grow and wanted him to be the strongest ninja because something in the back of her mind told her that Hagoromo and the Shinigami might bless that other child. Back with Kurama who was still laughing on the floor of his cage until he felt unimaginable pain which confused him. When he tried to get up he felt weaker like his charka was being stolen from him something that shouldn't be happening since his and Menma's chakra were supposed to fuse. He then remembered Yami was changing things around "I FUCKING HATE THAT BITCH!" yelled Kurama hoping the fake god heard him.
-Timeskip-
It had been an hour and now the Konoha ninjas were looking over the village and doing a damage report as well. Half of the village had been destroyed, another part was on fire, and there were dead bodies all around the village. When Minato showed up and took Son Goku out of the village everyone was happy but then their focus turned to Han. The Iwagakure ninja had decided to take it up a notch using his stream release, experience from two wars, and almost unlimited charka. The man became a one-man wrecking crew taking on Tsunade, the anbu, and even killed a few Uchiha members who were seen as one of the elite clans. During the fight everyone on the field was still hoping for Fugaku to show up however when he didn't this worried everyone seeing as he wasn't one to back down from a fight. After Rōshi was sealed Han confusedly stopped his attack and started to flee confusing all the remaining Iwagakure ninjas who decided to keep fighting. Due to this action the Oni mask and Iwagakure ninjas were dealt with and Konoha survived the attack. However, now they need to regroup and find out where the hell is Shadow Kage at. Once the battlefield was clear one of the Uzumaki members told Tsunade that she was needed at the Senju compound immediately and that the heir to the clan was born and healthy but that there was a serious problem. This statement caused the slug Sannin to run off towards the compound hoping that everyone was okay and that the problem was fixable.
-Senju compound-
When Tsunade got to the compound there was an emergency meeting between the Uzumaki and Senju clan going on. Upon walking in all eyes went to her however her eyes were on two babies one had black hair and was being held by Kushina's best friend Mikoto. While the other child had crimson red hair and was being held by the Snake Sannin Orochimara who was glaring at the Uchiha. "Now that everyone is here please tell us what happened and who are these kids" said a Senju elder. Orochimara had explained all she saw in the forest and then everyone's attention turned to Roshi who was still weak and had two seals on him. The first seal made him tell the truth and the second one was a suppression seal that made sure that he couldn't use his charka. After getting little to no information out of him they summoned the Shinigami who wasn't happy about being interrupted while doing his job. After taking the soul of the person who summoned him he warned them to watch the child which was misconstrued making them think that the black hair child was a possible threat. "Please take Roshi to the cells and inform the Anbu about him being here" ordered Tsunade. Two Senju members grabbed the man and took him to the holding cells that they have in the compound.
After a moment of silence and awkward tension someone finally spoke up "Okay so we now have two new babies here what is the plan?" asked a female Senju member. "My twin sister's son will be raised in the Uchiha compound I understand that the Senju clan and Minato had a great relationship however Minato was Senju in only name not blood" stated Mikoto holding the boy closely. Tsunade tried to play peacemaker "I believe that we should raise both children together especially since the-" Tsunade was cut off by an Uzumaki member. "Umm excuse me but the joining of our clans will not be happening due to the fact that this alliance between Konoha and Uzushiogakure has only befitted one side which is Konoha who also didn't send help during the attack on our village and now the Royal Uzumaki bloodline only has one member left" stated Liu Uzumaki leader of the Uzumaki clan. This outrage the current head of the Senju clan "This isn't Konoha's fault you know that Iwagakure and Konoha have always had bad blood between us and during the attack on Uzushiogakure we were also facing our own battles" started Tobirama Jr who looked just like his father only difference was the color of his eyes. "Tobirama-San while we understand this however after today we need to look after ourselves" there was a pause as the elder looked around to the other members and took in a deep breath "We the Uzumaki clan cannot in good faith believe that we will be protected here from anyone" said Moon another elder. This statement made the air in the room thick as the Uzumakis just told them that they village was incompetent.
-Timeskip-
After two hours of trying to persuade the Uzumaki clan to reconsider the Senju gave up knowing that the relationship between the clan and the village was too far gone. The Uzumaki clan explained their experience within the village isn't what they were promised and the fact that during Kushina's time within the village she endured hatred for no good reason. They had even gone so far to say that if the Senju clan were to stay within the village that they would go extinct since they only had forty members left sixty members less than the Uzumaki clan. A few Senju members had brought up the fact that the child is the son of Minato and that he would want his son to be a ninja of Konoha. The Uzumaki clan had countered that Minato Namikaze the fuinjutsu "expert", the prided and joy of Konoha, and the child who was trained by both Tobirama Jr and Jiraiya of the Sannin had done something so stupid as to try to seal two tailed beasts inside his own child leading to his own death making both of his sons orphans. Speaking of his TWO sons the Uzumaki clan was upset to know that Minato not only got Kushina pregnant but also one of her best friends.
This brought of the question of what both children's names would be however Mikoto cut them off letting them know that the child she held name is Naruto Uchiha. Naruto was the name of the main character in Jiraiya's first book and Minato loved the character so much that he wanted to name his son after this character hoping his son would end up being like him. Before the Senju could suggest a name for the red-haired child Orochimara remembered something "His name will be Menma Uzumaki-Namikaze it is the name Kushina wanted to give her son the last time I talked to her" explained Orochimara rocking the baby. "So, fishcake and bamboo shoots those two are going to have a rough time growing up" said Tsunade making herself and a few others laugh. A moment later there was a knock on the door and when Tsunade opened it she was handed a scroll.
Due to the event that happened earlier another Senju member opened the scroll and had informed her that a meeting between all the clan heads will be happening in two hours. Tobirama asked if the Uzumaki were going to the meeting or if they planned to abandon the village in its time of need trying to guilt trip them. This didn't work on the Uzumakis who told them that they would be leaving soon because of multiple reasons. The first reason is that they needed to find bury Kushina's body in Uzushiogkaure, the second reason is that they needed to find Kushina's brother who last known location was in Kirigakure however hasn't been found yet so to their knowledge Menma was the last of a dying bloodline, and third and most importantly they needed to protect Menma. After saying this the Uzumaki clan left the room to pack their things leaving the Senju clan to have their private discussion on who the next clan head would be.
-Ten Minutes Later-
Orochimara and Tsunade were in the Senju's personal emergency room so that Tsunade could do full physical on Menma and Naruto to make sure nothing was off or wrong. Both boys were healthy jinchurikis however when Tsunade looked over Menma's body she saw that his charka coils held a lot of charka and that his metabolism was fast meaning that he would need to eat more than a normal baby. After finishing Tsunade handed Menma to Orochimara and Naruto to an in-house nurse who left the room so that they could talk in private. There was a moment of silence before Tsunade came out with what she needed "I need a favor" said Tsunade to her friend. "Yeah shoot what is it?" asked Orochimara. "This is my son Tenzo and this is my daughter Shizune" said Tsunade handing Orochimara a photo of her two kids. This shocked Orochimara who didn't know her friend had any kids "Umm who the hell did you let impregnated you?" asked the snake Sannin. "That doesn't matter right now I need you to go get them and take them with you they are at least Chunin rank and I don't want what's going on here to affect them" answered Tsunade.
Orochimara had looked at her friend whose eyes were pleading her to take her to take care of the two teens "Okay where are they?" asked Orochimara. Tsunade smiled "They are currently in the Land of Waves about three to four days from Konoha also here" she then took out a box and handed it to her "This is for them please don't open it". Taking the box Orochimara replied "Yeah I got you but now it's time to go" said Orochimara walking out the room. After being all packed up the Uzumaki clan told Orochimara that they were heading out of the village and that she needed to bring the Prince and herself on before someone saw them leaving. They had plan to go back to Uzushiogakure because with Menma's potential he could bring Uzushiogakure back to its former glory however he had a long road ahead of him but thankfully he had his clan and Orochimara to make sure that he was ready for the responsibility. On their way out of the village Menma's seal started to glow and while Orochimara had some knowledge on Fuinjutsu she didn't know much thankfully the elders were there and informed her that nothing bad was happening though this did bring up the fact that she needed to learn more Fuinjutsu.
-Two Years Later-
The Uzumaki clan secretly roamed around the five elemental nations looking for those of Uzumaki blood. This was a solid plan until the group started getting too big leading to half of the group splitting off to head to their motherland Uzushiogakure. The other half of this group continued looking for more of their clan members and doing odd jobs to earn money. After a full year the second group had grown too large so they headed to the Land of Whirlpools. Once making it there they saw that the village was still in the process of being rebuilt due to the lack of members, everyone being too old, too young, or just not strong enough. A few months later after looking for an important building that they were looking for they found it. Inside of this building was a room that had a large seal within it that would rebuild the village if it was ever attacked on a massive scale. This made most of the elderly people happy but while reading it over they found out why it was a forbidden jutsu since that in exchange for using the jutsu the users would have to sacrifice their bodies and souls. One of the elders placed on a mask that held the power to control the Shinigami and summoned the death god to have the jutsu that it gave them ages ago explained in detail. The Shinigami explained that the jutsu will turn the younger generation into either full blooded or at least 80 percent Uzumaki.
After gaining this information the elders had decided to sacrifice their lives for the betterment of the clan. Before they did this the Uzumaki elders decided to write down a few announcements and a lot of knowledge that they held. The first one was that Menma Uzumaki-Namikaze was the son of Kushina Uzumaki and great grandson of Mito Uzumaki making him the last of the Royal Uzumaki bloodline. The second was that the jutsu that was performed had blessed the Uzumaki clan and that they weren't assassinated. The last but most important announcement was that they had written down all the information and knowledge they knew onto scrolls so that the next generation of Uzumaki kids would be able to learn their history that was destroyed. It had taken a day for people to notice that none of the elders were anywhere in the village before they started looking for them. After forty-eight hours they found the room, the personal notes they left for their family members, and the announcements that they left for the clan. The clan had wept for their elders for a whole week and decided to name this whole week "Elders Week" in remembrance of the sacrifice the elders made.
With only sixty members left the Uzumaki clan had decided to work harder to rebuild Uzushiogakure making it a homeland that they would live on for decades to come. Seeing as she was one the strongest and one of the smartest people on the island Orochimara was made an advisor. With this power she planned to build a village that Menma could run as soon as he became a Chunin. A few months later while doing security watch on the island two guards found a large group of powerful people on the south side of the island. Quickly a message was sent to village and they waited until back up arrived at the area. Orochimara led a small group of ninjas to either kill them or capture them to find out why they were on the island. Thankfully when they got there they noticed that most of them were sick, hungry, low on charka, or dying from salvation so they just captured them and took them back to the village to question them. Upon taking them back to the village with charka suppression seals on them they were given food and then questioned by Orochimara and the guardians of the village to see how they got on the island and why they were there.
After talking to the leaders of the Hoshigaki and Hōzuki clans they found out that current Mizukage had declared war upon all the clans seeing them as a problem and trying to wipe them from village history. Orochimara saw this as an opportunity to grow the village's power by having two of the deadliest clans join them. Later that day a meeting between all the adults was happening and they were all discussing why the Hoshigaki clan and Hōzuki clan should and shouldn't be allowed to stay. After three hours a vote was taken and the vote resulted in a tie they made all look towards the Snake Sannin who had fought in two wars and had survived against one of the strongest ninjas in Amegakure history Hanzo. Already deciding that she wanted them to be a part of the village she threw out an idea that would benefit both sides which when explained in detail pleased both sides. The next day Orochimara offered her idea to the imprisoned clans to which most of them agreed while others who refused were let go and became rouge ninjas or rejoined the battle in Kirigakure. Orochimara was happy to get most of them to stay however she did have a bad feeling about the ones who didn't stay but she brushed it off as nothing.
The two clans were then placed on probation and made to do free labor within the village to earn their keep. There were some who did try to leave the village walls without permission however were shocked by the seal on their necks. Now that the village had more members the Uzumaki clan had started sending members to different areas to find resources and builders. A few months later a group of Uzumaki members had come across the entrance of Takigakure which was odd since its usually hard to find the village. While walking around the village they had noticed that the village was either under attack or had been previously attacked by another group. No seeing anyone around they headed to where the supposed Hero Water was located at since it was rumored to help jinchurikis reach their full potential and boost the power of anyone who drunk it. The Uzumaki group creeped through the village slowly not attracting attention to themselves until they got to where the water was being held. Upon getting there they noticed a few members of the group that were attacking the village and knocked them out swiftly. They then took out a scroll that held a large empty water tank and filled it up with Hero Water and once done leave out a different way to head but to Uzushiogakure.
While leaving Takigakure they had noticed a kid who was being treated badly by the villagers and ninjas of the village. They had decided to kill all those who was attacking the child and took her the unconscious child with them. Taking the child wasn't an easy task since they were trying to avoid the areas where the battles were taking place at. Seeing that it wasn't going to be easy to get out of there they placed seals on multiple buildings they passed and after placing enough they activated them blowing up multiple building causing distractions. Using the distractions, they made it outside of the village and ran a good distance away before stopping to check over the child. The next question was should they take the tailed beast from her or let her keep it? After a week the clan had decided to allow her to keep it saying that if she became a problem the Uzumaki's charka chains would stop her. Now having the nine tails and seven tails tailed beast containers the idea of training the next generation, especially Menma, Karin, and Tayuya was pushed to the forefront so the Uzumaki clan started to plan for the future.
-Three years later-
When Menma turned five Orochimara started following the advice of the former elders and started training the boy in the basics. Menma was excited to finally be allowed to train just like everyone else around the village however every time Menma tried to join them he was told "No" or "Go Home". Unknowingly to Menma his grandmother was the reason he wasn't allowed to train and no one understood why she was so against him interacting with the rest of the kids. The reason why Orochimara didn't want Menma to train was because she gave him the DNA cells of Hashirama Senju because of his healing factor and Sun Wu because of his use iron release that made him almost unkillable. During their travels Orochimara picked them up and when they met Menma Shizune fell in love with the young boy while Tenzo saw him as a threat if not trained properly. Orochimara knew if Tsunade's kids found out she did this they would tell their mother Tsunade and she would stomp a mud hole in her and walk it dry however now it has been three years and because of his unnatural seal by Yami no one would put two and two together without solid proof.
Tenzo had been the main person pushing for the boy to be trained as soon as possible however Shizune and Orochimara wanted the boy to have a decent childhood. However, after a long discussion on how the boy was the container of two tailed beasts and that early training for the boy wouldn't hurt him the elders and Orochimara agreed to the idea. Unfortunately, Tenzo's idea was taken from him due to him being of the Royal Uzumaki bloodline he would be trained by the Uzumaki clan who would be training him to be a on the level of a Uzushiogakure Genin. Tenzo nor Shizune didn't like the fact that they wouldn't be training the boy however they understood it was clan practice that a Royal Uzumaki be trained in their jutsus, katas, and Kenjutsu before learning anything else. One day while doing cardio Menma had ran into two people that he felt had almost the same charka as him for some reason. These two being Ginkaku and Kinkaku two people Orochimara brought back from the dead using Edo Tensei. When he asked why they had similar charka as him Ginkaku explained how they ate the part of the nine tails belly which Menma didn't like at all for some reason not knowing the Kurama was influencing him to dislike the brothers. Orochimara had the two brothers talk about their ninja battles with Menma. They told him old war stories and about ninja life what Menma didn't know was that Orochimara had forced them to answer all the questions Menma wanted to ask. For the reminder of the year Menma was trained physically, mentally, was taught the history of the Uzumaki clan, their jutsus, Uzumaki culture, and breathing techniques for future jutsus and training. While training with his teachers they had learned Menma was a powerful sensor.
Years: 6 – 9
On Menma's sixth birthday Menma officially met his 3rd cousin Tsunade Senju mother of Tenzo and Shizune who they missed badly. Upon seeing Menma Tsunade knew something was different about the boy however she could put her finger on it so she asked her kids who then told her to ask Orochimara. When Tsunade asked her The snake Sannin pointed out the fact that she hadn't seen the boy since he was a baby and that no one else who had been around the boy wouldn't be able to help her either. Tsunade eyed her for a moment before Sannin for a moment however she went back to spending time with her children who she hadn't seen in years. For the rest of the day Tsunade, Menma, Shizune, and Tenzo spent time together something that the Uzumaki clan didn't like since the boy should've been spending time with his clan not a clan from Konoha. After the day was over Tsunade, Tenzo, and Shizune left the village however since there was still daylight Kinkaku and Ginkaku had taken the boy outside the village for a test. They had taken the boy to the edge of the island and told him to pull on his charka thinking they were helping him unlock it.
Menma thought it was odd however did what they asked and started pulling on the charka in his body. Immediately everyone in a ten-mile radius felt how potent his charka was frightening many animals and people. When everyone felt this they came running towards the charka thinking someone was attacking. However once getting there and seeing Menma was the source most smiled however others were now scared of the boy. While watching the Gold and Silver brothers noticed that Menma charka wasn't red. It was purple meaning he wasn't pulling on the nine tails charka as they had thought. Opening his eyes, the world looked like it was moving a bit slower than usual. He then passed out and was caught by Ginkaku who looked towards Orochimara but she was as shocked as everyone else seeing as the dojutsu Menma had activated hadn't been seen in decades.
Over the past year Uzushiogakure had gained a few clans those being the Chinoike clan, the Fuma clan, and the Kumanoi clan. While this did strength the village a few members of the Uzumaki clan had been killed on the outskirts of the village which shocked the clan. The first action the new Elders wanted to take was to demand every Non-Uzumaki to wear a suppression/tracking seal something that every clan disagreed with. Orochimara had tried to talk them out of requiring people wear the suppression seal however the counsel had felt that this was a good idea for the protection of their clan. When the other clans were told of this decision, none of the clans liked this action however the Uzumaki clan told them that its either that or they leave the village and be killed by another village which made them agree albeit reluctantly. Wanting to prove their loyalty the Fuma clan took to the outside of the village to find the problem and what they came across was Kiri ninjas and pirates. The Fuma members sent one of their members back to inform the counsel but this person never made it back since the group was found and killed.
After forty-eight hours of the bodies being in the same area the Uzumaki clan sent a few members of each clan to deal with the problem. Each clan sent ten members and upon getting to the area they slaughtered everyone in the area and brought back the bodies of the Fuma clan to be buried. Two months later Orochimara was contacted by Tsunade which didn't surprise her. What surprised her was the two contact agreements. The first contact was between the Namikaze clan and Inuzuka clan which stated that the Inuzuka clan was to protect the Namikaze heirs. The second contact agreement was between Mito Uzumaki and the Nara which stated that the Nara clan would always be their personal advisors. Orochimara knew that they would be a problem and considered just ripping up the contracts. However, the problem was that she wasn't the only one who received a copy of these contracts.
That very day it rained, lighting, and thundered all day which was a little crazy since that how everyone mood was. The Uzumaki counsel immediate reaction was HELL NO they didn't trust Konoha for good reason plus to them Menma didn't need either clan they had him. The other reasons were the facts that they didn't know who they were, there was a possibility they could be spies for the village, and lastly they knew nothing about this agreement. Orochimara brought up the important fact that this contract had been going on for decades and that this was a blood agreement which made them angry since they didn't want anything to do with Konoha anymore. The Uzumaki clan fought the idea for a while before giving in however promised that if they did anything suspicious they wouldn't haste to kill them. Orochimara even took full reliability for anything they do and would pay for everything this made the counsel agree. A week later Orochimara had sent a scroll back to Tsunade who lived in Konoha telling her that they agreed and that they would pick them up from Land of Tea. Two weeks later Orochimara, Menma, and a few Uzumaki members met up with a man that had a mask that covered the bottom of his face, five Inuzuka members, and five Nara members. Menma was told that these kids were to be his personal group that he was to lead. After taking a long look at Menma the man handed over the scroll containing jutsus that the clans like to use and then left. Orochimara told them that they would be staying here for another day so Menma and his new friends should go get to know one another.
-An hour later-
Menma was at the head of the table with his personal bodyguard standing behind him eying the Nara and Inuzuka members. The Nara clan sat on the right side while the Inuzuka sat on the left side which made Menma smile. "Please introduce yourselves one by one I'll go first I am Menma Uzumaki-Namikaze, I am seven years old, I am the Prince of Uzushiogakure, and I am next in line to be the Uzushiokage" said Menma. This shocked both clans as they were told that Lady Kushina and the fourth Hokage's son was a boy known as Naruto however here was the kids in front of them telling them that he was the son of their two heroes. Menma then turned towards the man behind him "The name is Jūgo no surname, I am eighteen years old, I am the personal bodyguard of Menma-sama" said the giant named Jūgo. The man stood 6'4, muscular, has spiky orange hair, and red-orange eyes. He was currently wearing a plain black anbu attire something that he usually wore.
A boy wearing standard Nara attire stood up "My name is Ryosuke Nara, I am nine years old, and I have no royal status" said the teenager sitting back down. Ryosuke looked like the typical Nara you know pineapple black hair, black eyes, lazy standing posture, always saying something troublesome. The only difference is that he had green eyes however he wears contacts cause well ya know it's troublesome to have unique eyes. The person next to him stood up and walked over to hug Menma something that Jugo found cute however his face didn't show it. Menma stood and hugged the girl as she then returned to her seat and introduced herself "My name is Akemi Nara, I am eight years old, no royal status but I am ready to severe under you Menma-sama" said the girl who was wearing a pink dress with flowers on it. "A female Nara member that doesn't happen usually I'm surprised you're here" commented Menma. The girl just smiled at him and then the next person stood up "The name is Akira Nara, I am eight years old, no royal status" said the boy as he sat back down.
Before the next person could go Menma stood "You guys can say something you like or dislike I just want to get to know you" said the boy with a smile. He then sat back down and allowed the next person to go "I'm Riku and he's Kenzo" pointing at the person next him "we're twins I usually speak for both of us since he's a shy person" said Riku. "Well, that's something we are going to have to work on then however can you tell us something about you two" said Menma smiling at the twins. "Oh, I'm sorry well we're eight years old and we like reading and planning" answered Riku. "Thanks, who's next?" asked Menma looking towards the other side of the table.
"My name is Kiyoshi Inuzuka, I'm ten years old, and I am the secret love child of the current Inuzuka clan head" said the boy. Kiyoshi had markings on his cheeks just like his birth clan however his were purple just like another Konoha ninja. This made everyone turn their head towards him and even made Jugo speak "What the hell do you mean?" asked a confused Jugo. "I am the first son of Kiba Sr who is the husband of Tsume Inuzuka the current clan head" explained Kiyoshi. This was shocking information to hear since everyone knew that the Inuzuka clan was pack and family orientation. "That's soo fucked up" said Menma which earned him a slap to the back of his head by his bodyguard. "Young Prince please don't speak like a degenerate" said Jugo. "Prince Menma is right and by the way my name is Irina Inuzuka, I am eight years old, and I need a nin animal" said a girl who was wearing a hoodie hiding her face however you could see that she had pink hair. Menma was still rubbing the back of his head so he wasn't paying attention "Next person please" said the boy making him seem like an asshole.
"My name is Tinashe Inuzuka, I just turned seven years old, and I am undefeated at chess" said the girl proudly. The next boy stood up "My name is Akio Inuzuka, I am eight years old, and we need to leave soon before I kill someone" stated Akio whose eyes were bloodshot red. Akio was quickly knocked out by Jugo "I don't think we should bring him with us he may cause us problems" commented Jugo however he wasn't looking at Menma. A redhaired Anbu member placed a seal on him and took him away "Don't worry about him who's next?" asked Menma trying to get back on track. "I guess I am the last person my name is Tamiko Inuzuka, I am also seven years old, and I like hunting" said the girl showing her fangs. "Okay so before we leave we must place a seal on you it's a tracking seal that all members of the village have" said Menma as Jugo showed his seal. After thirty minutes everybody had the seal and they were allowed to leave the room to shower and have fun.
-Timeskip-
It had been two weeks since the group got back from the Land of Tea and the first question that group asked was "Where is the Ninja Academy?". Orochimara told them that the academy wasn't too important to the village though they didn't plan to open one up. Orochimara planned on opening one up so that the kids could learn the arts which are Taijutsu, Fuinjutsu, Bukijutsu, Genjutsu, Kenjutsu, Medical Ninjutsu, and most importantly Fuinjutsu for the Uzumaki kids. The problem was finding people who could teach kids and not be biased, which would be hard but like most problems there is a solution.
For Menma's eighth birthday Orochimara had taken Menma on a trip to Sunagakure. Menma wasn't the biggest fan of the desert or the heat however he made a friend named Gaara who was also a Jinchuriki and was one of the of the current Kazekage kids. While having a discussion Orochimara had offered Rasa a deal he couldn't refused and in exchanged she wanted him to train Menma to use his magnet release which shocked Rasa and his advisors learning that someone else had the same kekkei genkai as he and his children. At first the Kazekage refused to teach the boy but once the Orochimara had informed the man that she knows that Gaara and his birth mother has Uzumaki blood and that if this information was to get back to Uzushiogakure all hell would break loose. Rasa wasn't one to be easily scared however he knew that Sasori and Gaara had a close relationship and if this information leaked then Sasori would have the man's head. Thinking about it for a long moment Rasa agreed to teach the boy and exchange the two villages would form an alliance with each other in case Kumogakure or Iwagakure tried to attack them seeing as both had taken over small villages recently. After six months of training Menma had gotten a handle on his magnet release and had made a new friend and a rival in Gaara. Rasa thought the boy had some real talent since Menma had the ability to use his gold sand however he wasn't as good as Rasa was with it. Upon leaving Sunagakure they head to the Land of Iron so he can get training in Kenjutsu and to find some samurais. After looking around she finally found some and in exchange for teaching Menma he had to promise them land in Uzushiogakure. The group had decided to call themselves the Yokai clan because of their skills and the way that didn't make sound when they walk or run. (Author's Note: Yokai means Ghost in Japanese). Returning to the village the Yokai clan was accepted however just like every other clan they were placed on probation. With this clan joining the village security around the village and the island got stronger since everyone was either a ninja or training to be one.
On Menma's ninth birthday while he was sleeping his charka surged and he felt pulled deeper into his subconscious. When he looked around he saw he was in a huge forest which had strange-looking trees. Menma didn't panic as much as a nine-year-old would because something about this felt familiar. While walking he heard something calling his name so he followed the voice until he reached a gate that had a large fox with nine tails behind it however the kitsune was a good distance away. Before he could open or even touch the gate the person who was calling his name grabbed his hand. "Finally, you're here I thought you would never come" said a woman that looked oddly familiar. Umm who the are you?" questioned a confused Menma taking a fighting stance. The woman laughed at the boy "I am Mito Uzumaki first container of the nine tails, former leader of the Uzumaki clan, and wife of the first Hokage" answered the now known Mito.
Menma bowed before addressing the Uzumaki elder "Nice to meet you Mito-Sama however I must ask am I dead?" questioned Menma knowing that the woman was dead. "No, my boy you are very much alive and as for me I was sent here by Yami to give you knowledge that no one else could give you" answered Mito. Relaxing a bit "Well Mito-sama what does Yami-sama want me to know" asked the Menma who was smiling. Mito took out a piece of paper "You have been blessed with a few kekkei genkais and two dojutsus I believe one is the Mind's Eye a dojutsu that our clan uses to see charka from a distance on top of other abilities that you will need to find out for yourself" stated Mito to the boy. "May I ask which kekkei genkais I have?" asked the boy. "Well, your natural bloodlines are Boil and Lava release just like any Royal Uzumaki member the ones you were blessed with are Scorch and Hyoton be careful as you could easily kill someone" said Mito. This confused Menma as he knew he had Magnet release as well and reading his face Mito explained "There are three unnatural kekkei genkais in your DNA those being Magnet, Mokuton and" but the woman was cut off by a booming voice.
"Well look who it is my new container what are you doing here?". Menma felt something was off so he looked around and when he turned back to Mito he found himself looking at a giant fox which had five tails. Menma thought this was odd but didn't pay any mind to it trying to make peace with the beast inside of him though looking up he did feel afraid of the giant red fox he held his ground. "You're Lord Kurama right? Its nice to meet you" said Menma who held out his fist. Kurama just looked at the fist then back towards the boy "One we aren't on first name bases and two why aren't you afraid of me like all others have been?" questioned the large fox. Noticing that Kurama wasn't going to pound his fist he dropped it "I apologize kitsune I was brought here by your first container however it seems she is gone as for why I am not scared" Menma imaged steel bars holding the fox down "I am the last Royal Uzumaki future leader of my clan and village and with the power Yami has gifted me plus my knowledge Uzushiogakure will be feared" replied Menma smiling.
This statement made Kurama think the kit was power hungry. However, going over his statement made him think otherwise but he planned to find out. "Yes she gave you gifts but you must remember nothing in this life is free" said Kurama warning the boy and giving him an important life lesson. Menma thought about this for a moment "You make a lot of sense fox but my own power and knowledge will make my dreams come true" said Menma looking up. "Well tailless beast you sure are confidence" said Kurama jabbing at this container. Menma head snapped back to Kurama "Tailless beast?" asked a confused Menma. "Well currently your body has a lot of charka making you a tailless beast also meaning that your charka reserves are almost unlimited this makes you a menace to fight against but also means that you will never be able to hide your charka" explained Kurama. "Wait after I absorb all of your charka what will happen to you?" asked Menma. Kurama wondered how he knew about this and decided to try to scare the boy "Most likely your human body will explode due to how much charka you ha-" said Kurama before his mouth was shut.
"You know you're pretty stupid if you think that I was going to let him overload from charka" said a voice that Kurama didn't want to hear. Not wanting to see the fox Yami opened her hand and pushed the fox into the darkness. "You must be Yami it is nice to meet you" said Menma bowing. "Indeed, now listen don't listen to that damn fox they can be cunning as for the overloading problem don't worry about it I made you a deity however you still be hurt and even die so be care" said Yami leaving. Menma looked around not liking what he saw so he changed the landscape into an open field and built his dream castle. Before he could walk into the castle Mito popped up out of nowhere scaring the boy. "Mito-sama please don't do that" said Menma who was holding his chest. "I am sorry I came back to give you this" said Mito handing Menma a scroll. Menma looked at the scroll before looking at Mito "It's the demon fox contract as the container you must sign this before you sign any other summoning contracts that will possibly come your way" said Mito hugging the boy and left.
Menma opened the contract seeing Mito and Kushina names signed however both were crossed out. Menma signed his name under his mother's and the area around him lit up making him cover his eyes. Upon opening his eyes, he noticed that he was not in his room and that he was stripped down to a bed. Immediately he started panting until he was told to calm down by a familiar voice. "Menma-sama please calm down you are in no trouble I am Jade Uzumaki and for the next three years I will be training you so that you will be ready for the Ninja academy" said Jade who started untying him. Immediately the boy made a knife out of Iron which shocked Jade who didn't know he could do this however Menma didn't know this either. "It seems that we have a lot of work to do I'll go grab the Uzumaki elders please stay here" said Jade as she left the room.
When Menma woke up the next morning he felt stronger and his scents were three times stronger, which was a positive and a negative at the same time. Upon opening his eyes, he noticed that he was not in his room and that he was stripped down to a bed. Immediately he started panting until he was told to calm down by a familiar voice. "Menma-sama please calm down you are in no trouble I am Jade Uzumaki and for the next three years I will be training you so that you will be ready for the upcoming four years at the ninja academy" said Jade who started untying him. Immediately the boy made a knife out of Iron which shocked Jade who didn't know he could do this however Menma didn't know this either. "It seems that we have a lot of work to do I'll go grab the Uzumaki elders please stay here" said Jade as she left the room. Menma lay there for a moment trying not to panic he had never been too far from his grandmother and a part of him was scared. Getting out the bed Menma placed his hand on the floor and felt the charka of Jugo, Karin, and Tayuya plus over twenty more. Menma started to leave the room and walked to where Jugo was but before he could move someone entered the room. "Ahh the Prince has woken up follow me Prince we have training to do and a short amount of time to do it" said a man with red hair. Menma could sense that the man wasn't bad however he could also feel that the man was dangerous. "Please lead the way" said Menma getting up and following the man.
End of chapter notes:
Thank you for leaving a Comment and Following.
Hannya mask is a representant of a jealous female demon.
2. Okay so I made Naruto and Menma half-brothers and I give Naruto the full four tails which makes more sense.
3. Yes I know it seems like Naruto is a lot weaker than Menma. He is not Menma just has more talent than Naruto.
