Chapter: 2 Old Prophecies New Threats
Kakashi was having a decent day, he was just chillin out on his sensei's stone head thinking about his new responsibility, his genin team…they weren't out of this world, but had poltenal and it also had a lot of issues. He was excited that he finally gets to have his sensei's son on his genin team… along with the Uchiha that has a hate boner for his older brother as well as a kunoichi that's a fan girl. Other than that he couldn't wait to teach Naruto everything he knew, along with trying to be the big brother he'd always wanted to be. That thought made his depression flare. "Damn the civilian council they made my little brother's life hell all because he has the kyuubi sealed inside him, keeping them all safe from destruction." the resentful thoughts plaguing his mind.
"Inu-taicho you've been summoned to see the Hokage-sama at 16:00 hours." said the ANBU that appeared from a shunshin, being used to they're sudden appearance every now and then.
"Hai hai i'll be there." the one eyed jonin replied while waving his hand lazily wondering if he had a mission or not.
"Hokage-sama said if you're not there on time he'll burn them all." and with that Inoshishi was gone, laughing internally at his Taicho's face making sure to remember to tell the rest of the barrack's.
Kakashi was now scared, his precious was now being threatened, he'd better be on time. "I wonder if Naruto is okay, I remember he was attacked by the traitor's fiance last night…maybe i should go check on him?"
Plan of action decided he was off to find his little brother to check on him. While running through the village Kakashi wasn't expecting much… but wasn't expecting a line of academy teacher's in wrist restanis being escorted to the T I building by the ANBU. Jumping down to see what's going on with the procession, walking towards the nearest ANBU he asked what's on his mind. "Yo Neko, what's going on here?"
The cat-masked ANBU looked at the one eyed jonin and answered. "We were ordered to take these traitor's to Ibiki-san?"
"Traitor's? What do you mean about that?" he asked in confusion.
"Yes Kakashi-senpai, they are traitor's of the state, they've been found guilty of selling information to other village's, and Hokage-sama has ordered us."motioning to the other AMBU. "To parade them the long way around the village and give an explanation to anyone that asks about them."
"Damn that harsh, leading them around so everyone could see them and hear what they did, Hokage-sama is truly the scariest when mad." the one eyed jonin stated more to himself then Neko.
Neko nodded at the cyclops while they walked side by side for a long moment until Kakashi broke the silence. "So Neko, do you know if Naruto is okay? I heard what happened last night when he left the Hokage tower."
"Yes he's fine, him and Hokage-sama made their way to T I to see if they can break Tsubaki-chan of Misuki, Hokage-sama and Naruto-kun believe she was tricked and used by Misuki for the guard shift schedule, and various other things…I hope she sees that Misuki was using her, so i can have one of my best friends back."
Kakashi eye smiled, "I believe in Naruto. He usually brings the best out in people if they let him." he said fondly.
Neko smiled under her mask and nodded in agreement, "yes i believe you're correct."
"I'm off to find something to do while I wait for Hokage-sama ja-na." the one eyed Jonin waived.
Like that he was off roof hopping through the village, passing by a training ground that brought back memories of the past he never wanted to remember…
Flashback no jutsu
He was running as fast as he could, his sharingan blazing with rage, because of what was reported to him just a bit ago. He didn't even stop to see the hokage. "Sensei i'm sorry i should-'' he thought. Grief taking hold of his emotions, guilt making him sick with the bile trying to find its way out of his stomach. His mournful thoughts were halted by a blood curdling scream that sounded from his left.
Diving in that direction, a few moments later he came to a clearing near training ground 44. The sight he came to was horrifying…his favorite blonde nailed to a tree with kunai. His body bloody, with every little 8 year old finger chopped off laying across grass and dirt. His leg was being practically sawed off to the point the only thing holding it all together was his bone that could be seen clearly by two jonin by the look of their flak jackets using shuriken. while a third flicked out a kunai from his sleeve, brandishing it like some sort of sacred object used to slay demons… and plunged it into the young boy's right eye socket brutally then twisted it coaxing out an anguished cry from the child. Blood and tears stained his cheeks while a soul breaking sobs echoed from the broken boy's horse throat.
"Hey look he's crying haha." one of the Jonin laughed maniacally, no sense of conscience to be found.
The other Jonin smirked. "Not for long." he stated in mad glee.
The boy let out a bloody scream writhing in place, he tried to buck and kick his attackers off of his small frame trying to get a way, but the kunai nailed through his body wouldn't had any of that."p-p-please i didn't do anything-" tears coming from his eyes, one of blood the other normal tears.
"Yeah!, don't worry, we have the council giving us time." Third, laughed while interrupting the wailing boy. hefting his large sword the deranged Jonin thrusted forward, the poor boy didn't get to finish pleading for his life, when he coughing up blood and spittle. He was stopped when the massive sword was blasted through his chest, completely destroying his rib cage and left lung barely missing his heart by millimeters. All that was heard was the sound of crunching and shadering bone filling the quiet air of the training ground as the sword made a "thunk" letting everyone close enough know it went straight through.
Goosebumbs crawled throughout Kakashi's body while his blood ran cold then hot with a frenzy like desire to truly mureder the trash in front of him. The Desire he felt wouldn't be tasted by his own blade, but another's as a black shrouded figure surrounded by bloody-orange aura that formed a spectral horned skeletal demon, spead from the opposite tree line. The killing intent oozing off said shrouded individual was suffocating. Not that he would admit it Kakashi was unnerved by the black figure that was already behind the Jonin that was gripping the sword bi-sectieting the Jonin from the crown of the skull down; both sides dropping to the dirt with a squelch, the former Jonins' entrails sliding out making a gut wrenching sight. It didn't stop there; the others weren't spared either.
Hearing a squelch, the other two Jonin turned to stare in horror as their third member was sliced in two from head to groin, laying on the ground in a bloody mess by a black figure standing in front of them 6 feet away red glowing eyes with a three pointed shuriken pin-wheel spinning dangerously as the spectral being sunk its bone like fingers into the earth as it dragged them back digging grooves throw the dirt, it's eyes glowing a malicious green as steam exhaled from its mouth when it growled.
"You trash dare to spill my little brother's royal blood, you insufferable insects. For your transgressions I will end your pitiful existence for this atrocity." As if commanded, the spectral demon sprung forward with its bone-like limbs threatening to impale them upon its claw like fingers in an instant. The two Jonin had no chance of escape, but they tried in a flash of spectral bloody-orange they were ran through with two fingers each. Kakashi watched in satisfaction as the two pieces of trash were brought in front of Naruto's unknown savior, blood pouring from their mouths and with a flick of his wrist they were ripped apart by the fingers spreading apart.
Breaking from his trance Kakashi moved to Naruto's broken form before the unknown got there first, by getting closer he could see the Kyuubi's chakra trying to keep him alive. "I see i took your kills, but my ototo's life was in risk so forgive me for killing your own, but it's nice to see you again Inu-senpai it's been a while since i've seen you." The figure stated in a monotone but Kakashi could hear the worry in their voice, then hit him.
"Yu-yu-you!" The Inu-masked ANBU stammered, unbelieving of the identity of Naruto's savior.
"Yes…it's me but I don't want anyone to know of my relation to my Ototo, but here Hokage-sama will know what to do with this." Also if you want to know everything just say this phrase to sandaime-sama he'll know what it means"
"The golden crow has left the murder of black, shedding the black that stains his feathers."The black shrouded man vanished in a yellow flash, not before tossing a jar filled with liquid, something floating in it.
Kakashi caught the jar and gasped seeing the contents of the jar, shoving it in his pocket. He went to see his favorite blond, grabbing the broken boy with the sword still in his chest, not forgetting his severed fingers then disappearing in a spiral of leaves.
Arriving at the hospital Kakashi paid no mind to the glares sent to the boy in his arms from the hospital staff that were still in this late at night. The Hokage was already there,waiting for his arrival, seeing Kakashi carrying in his favorite little prankster's broken body, seeing the sword in his chest, fingers sawed off and in his ANBU's hand while his leg partially hacked off, only to see his bone. He had to rain in his rage or the killing intent would stop the boy's heart.
"Inu what happened?" Hiruzen ordered malis covering his words like venom glazed fangs ready to be sunk into flesh.
Before he could speak the boy's personal doctors rushed to him, ripping him from his grasp and taking him to his personal operation room.
Hiruzen gave Kakashi a cold gaze before barking. "Well?"
The dog-masked AMBU straightened and repeated the phrase. "The golden crow has left the murder of black, shedding the black that stains his feathers."
The Hokage widened his eyes, but before he could speak Kakashi got closer to him and spoke. "He also gave me this, he said you'd know what to do with it, i'd say put it in because the bastards destroyed his." handing the old kage the jar.
His eyes widened slightly then called out. "Neko!"
'Hai hokage-sama '' A cat-masked ANBU appeared.
"Neko take this to the doctors of our little fishcake and tell them to place it in him, I also want you to stay with the boy until Inu is sent to relieve you." Hiruzen ordered, handing off the jar.
Momentarily the cat AMBU was stunned and then disappeared.
"Inu follow me, I'll tell you everything in my office." the Hokage stated while leaving the hospital with Kakashi in tow.
Flashback no jutsu Kai
The one eyed Jonin sat in front of the same tree, the blood of that night seeped into it staining the wood red. A constant reminder of his failure to protect his Ototo.
"This is my chance to make a difference in his life, but would he accept me or would he hate me for leaving him all alone for his entire life…"
"Ryo for your thoughts?" a deep voice questioned from behind him.
Recognizing the voice, Kakashi replied. "That tree stained red is where we almost lost sensei's son six years ago all because of her ignorance." he stated coldly.
The man behind him winced. "I know-"
"Then why come back." Kakashi jabbed coldly. "You made your choice after Hokage-sama offered you a chance to do your job as a god-father."
"I tried- No you didn't." the cyclops interrupted again. "you let her control you, I know you love her, but how can you condone the actions she made? Oh and let's not forget how she made everything harder for him a year after this incident." he pointed at the tree.
"What do you mean Kakashi?" the masculine voice asked in confusion.
"Hokage-sama had her come back to the village, to try talking sense into her but…"
"but?" the other voiced.
"she didn't want to hear it. She made her hatred for him known publicly, by starting a fox hunt and offering a prize to whoever found him first…" anger in the Jonin's voice.
"what!! Sensei never told me about this!!" the deep voice stated in rage.
"because she told him that you wouldn't believe him because she's your hime Jiraiya." Kakashi said with venom dripping from each word.
The now named Jiraiya flinched back knowing the masked Jonin was right, he did follow her every whim blinded by the aspect of finally getting the love of his life, completely forgoing his responsibility for his godchild…the son of his greatest student the very student he thought of as a son.
"Well I'm off, I have a meeting with hokage-sama in a few minutes so i'll speak with you later" Jonin announced.
"I'll come with you. I've been blinded by that woman long enough, it's time to fix my mistakes." the white haired man declared.
"and what would you do if he wants nothing to do with you when he finds out your relation with his childhood tormenter?" Kakashi questioned, he was curious about his answer.
"After what you just told me, she's not the woman I fell in love with…I'm ending it completely." the gama sanin stated. "I'll do anything to get his forgiveness, even if I have to give up on her and step away from her and my daughter. She isn't saveable either hime has poisoned her completely." Kakashi nodded in affirmation.
"In that case i'll help you, Naruto-kun… he's damn near a carbon copy of his father all the way down to his intelligence and lack of social cues." Kakashi chuckled hoping off into the trees.
Jiraiya laughed wholeheartedly jumping after the cyclopic Jonin.
The Hokage entered his office with joyful light in his eyes, the happiness he felt from his favorite blond radiates making his old bones feel a lot younger.
"You look happy, what gots you like that?" a deep voice rang out.
Turning to see his student sitting in one of the arm chairs with the silver haired Jonin leaning against the wall, arms crossed.
"Aww Jiraiya you're here." Hiruzen stated coldly.
The cold tone from the old fire shadow made both men flinch back as it cut deep into the gama-sennin.
Swallowing the lump in his throat, Jiraiya Mustered up all the confidence he had to offer then spoke. "Sensei i came back to train the boy now that he's of age to be a shinobi and to-"
"Absolutely not!" The Hokage roared out. "I refuse to let that poor boy near you or your family, that ship has sailed and sunk right out of the harbor, like how his godparents let their responsibilities sink without trying to care for the poor boy." Hiruzen said harshly.
"But Sensei-" Jiraiya choked out before he was interrupted again.
"Don't but sensei me Jiraiya!!, do you know what little Naruto went through because of the instigation of your wife years ago." the Hokage retorted coldly, a sneer maring his expression.
Jiraiya looked down in shame, his feet becoming very interesting. "No I don't, I just learned of his treatment by Kakashi earlier today."
Hiruzen scoffed. "Well, let us show you, Kakashi-kun use it."
Kakashi sighed following his leader's orders. "This is gonna hurt a lot later." he whined to himself later making the Hokage chuckle aloud.
"It's okay Kakashi-kun, I got something to tell you later that you might like." the Hokage stated vaguely.
"What do you mean show me?" the white haired man questioned.
Kakashi turned toward Jiraiya, lifting his forehead protector revealing his sharingan in its mangekyo stage. "Now Jiraiya-sama look into my eye and I'll show you my memories."
Jiraiya, understanding what was about to happen listened to the suggestion, once he made eye contact with Kakashi his surroundings changed to an empty grassland untouched by anything but nature until he heard the Jonins voice all round him.
"Now witness the folly of your actions, and the suffering you caused the boy you promised to care for…" his voice boomed.
In the outside world the Hokage was just sitting in his chair glancing back and forth between the two slumped men. "Well might as well get some paperwork done while waiting." Hiruzen thought to himself.
Naruto was excited because his Jiji promised to help train him, he also gave him a scroll with Jutsu's written down by his Jiji. "Maybe I should go home, the villagers are giving me glares…" before he could go on his way, someone called out to him.
"Yo Naruto."
He turned to see Shikamaru with a taller Shikamaru. "Must be his dad." the blond thought.
"Hey Shikamaru, what's up?" he replied.
"Nothing really, my troublesome mother made my dad and I go do some shopping." the lazy Nara said while gesturing towards the taller Nara.
Before Naruto could speak, the taller Nara spoke. "I see the Hokage made you a Shinobi, that's good I was worried he let the sabotage hold back a promising Ninja."
Naruto looked shocked. 'Umm thank you sir…"
"Nara Shikaku, it's nice to finally meet you, Uzumaki Naruto, like my son has stated. I'm his father and the clan head of the Nara clan." the now named Shikaku introduced himself.
"It's nice to meet you Nara-san." the blond greeted while bowing.
"Haha it's fine, no need to bow when we're not in a formal setting." Shikaku said, waiving off the boy's formality.
Naruto grinned Nervously while scratching the back of his head. "Well you both have things to do so i'll be off, i'll see you at team assignments Shika." the blond waived while running off.
"Troublesome." the younger Nara stated.
Naruto snickered hearing his friends muttering. "Training sounds like a good idea, I'll head to my favorite spot." Jumping into the trees he made his way to his training spot, the blond's body moved on its own. While he was in deep thought, his mind somewhere else. "My life sucked. I was treated horribly. Nevertheless, I want to help people. I felt like it's the right thing to do, helping them even if they didn't want it…"
"Everyone deserves a chance to move on in life. In this world I feel like everyone has forgotten the preciousness of life. People cheat. Steal. Murder. For their own gain, people's suffering is constant by their own Design. I dream for a world where death and war aren't the answer to all conflicts, but words can be as much as war Ignitor… The subject that confuses me the most is the Biju; they seem to be more of a victims then monsters or aggressors to humanity from what Mito-bachan's book said along with known history, the Biju hadn't attacked human settlements until Provoked the Biju only showed themselves to destroy evil near their homes. Kyuubi wasn't a factor until Madra decided to mind fuck it. Maybe I should talk to Kyuubi when I get a chance. I wonder if we could be friends, I wonder if he knows the Sage if he does, maybe he'll tell me about him." the blonde thought.
Unknown to the blond, the one he was thinking about can hear his thoughts. Inside the seal Kurama was baffled, this poor child wanted to be his friend that was first…well a second the first was Mito, but she was weary. This boy thought first before he jumped to conclusions. "Maybe I should give him a chance plus with his unusual power he'll have infindent potential.
"That is true my son, but that boy's destiny isn't only tied to this world but another as well and he'll need all the help he could get, because if the other world's evils manage to cross the vail to our world… my mother and her clan would be the least of our worries." a calm deep voice resounded in the seal.
"Father… you're here I've missed you." the fox softly spoke.
Hagromo smiled. "I know my son." he walked toward the fox and rubbed his fur. "My son, I must ask you if you are willing to help this boy accomplish what i couldn't."
Kurama snorted " Of course father your daughters clan were the only humans i really like plus they were fun to be around always full of energy." the giant fox chucked.
The sage chucked. "Yes she was the one I had the most faith in, too bad her brothers were always fighting to see her sadness, but her beliefs came from their foolishness."
"Father, what other evils must we be aware of?" Kurama asked anxiously.
"They're called outer gods, beings that have powers that corrupt all life. They are foul and evil, they have no regard for life…But for the reason i've come. I'm gonna give this boy a portion of my chakra and have it integrate into his chakra."
"You mean…"
"Yes my son, he's gonna need it to save both worlds. I will visit the Hokage and inform him of the possible threat to this world and who must fight it." said the sage as he formed a ball of energy that resembled yin and yang, he smiled then dispersed it in the seal that fed into the boy's chakra system." Farewell my son i intrust this boy's wellbeing to you." as Hogromo faded from the seal.
A lone tear left Kurama's eye. "I will father…this boy will make you proud and take the mantle of the sage."
Outside of the seal Naruto felt a tingling sensation go throughout his body, drawing him from his thoughts. He slipped from the tree branch causing the boy to yelp and meet the ground more intimately than he should. "Ouch that hurt." he whined, rubbing his face of the dirt that made its home there.
"Help…"
"Who's there?" called out in confusion.
"Thou…help…thy…help!"
A searing pain crawled through his head, an unbearable feeling clawing in his head. "Argh" he let out a pain cry dropping to his knees, clawing at his head tears pouring from his eyes. "It hurts…it's in pain…the loneliness." he rasped.
"Help…thy…it hurts, it hurts, it hurts."
"The searing pain intensified, his blood went cold then heated to unbearable tempares, blood started to leak from his nose, eyes and ears burning his skin. His bones felt like they were under so much pressure they were turning to powder, muscle fraying. The voice called to him pleading for help…for love, through his bloody vision he tried to look around one eye clearer than the other but that didn't matter, someone needed his help calling to him…to his soul…to his very existence. A presents that felt familiar but foreign, he started to crawl on his stomach, digging his fingers into the dirt dragging his body along the grass and dirt the blood leaking from his body creating a gut wrenching smear upon the ground, he didn't know where he was going, but he knew; he knew the one that needed him…his help.
"Help…please help…it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"
The pained voice echoed throughout his skull, his blurry sight caught the shine of golden he reached for it grasping it in his hands. "Awgh" he cried.
Kurama watched in horror, the boy was in pain and he didn't know what caused it, but when he found that golden object. He knew it was sentient and it was covered in…"what the fuck!!" It's some type of rot, trying to eat at him, take him, corrupt him…"oh hell no!! Not happening, you disgusting parasite!!" Kurama flared his corrosive Biju chakra burning away the rot from the boy and the seed, healing Naruto as well as the seed he felt it absorb some of his chakra, he decided to ponder that later he had to make sure the rot was completely gone from the boy.
"I…got…you…now." Naruto wheezed out cradling the golden seed, finally succumbing to unconsciousness.
Hiruzen was finishing up his paperwork wondering if his favorite blonde was trying out the jutsu's he wrote down for him, his pondering was interrupted by a hole in space being ripped asunder. He gaped at what he saw…
"Greetings, Sarutobi Hiruzen. I assume you know who I am." the individual spoke.
The hokage rubbed his eyes again and again, he tried to dispel any genjutsu, but for not he was face to face with Rikudō Sennin. "How…" was the only word that left his lips
Hogaromo chuckled. "I mean you no harm ive came with a warning." the sage stated calmly.
Hiruzen jumped from his chair and keeled in front of the great sage. "How can I serve thy, great sage."
The Sage laughed again. "No worries young one, I just wish to speak, but first these two must be in attendance." he said gazing over the two slumped men, Hagoromo snapped his fingers a few seconds later Kakashi and Jiraiya awoke to see…
Without any fanfare they kneeled in front of the sage, which made Hiruzen and hagoromo chuckle. "No need for you to bend the knee. I've come to share important information." the old sage spoke.
"What would that be, my lord." Hiruzen spoke with respect while the young two stayed silent, but were very curious.
Hagoromo's face straightened. "The child of prophecy has been found…" Naruto all three of them thought as one. "Uzumaki Naruto, the descendant of my daughter as well as the host of my oldest son Kurama…"
The first to speak was Jiraiya. "My lord, that mustn't be all?"
"Patience, my child i am getting there." the Sage chuckled, making Jiraiya blush in embarrassment. "Uzumaki Naruto has been chosen as the savior of this world as well as another, there are beings trying to breach the veil of our world they are called the outer gods. They are foul and evil beings that consume and corrupt all forms of life…i've glimpsed beyond the veil to see the other world and it was a horrifying sight, a scarlet rot writhing, consuming and corrupting life, a star lit beast tainting and misleading life to destroy itself pushing brothers and sisters to kill each other for power, a formless being waiting to drown the world in it's tainted blood and many others."
The three men looked horrified."You mean my Ototo is destined to fight and defeat these grotesque beings?" questioned the silver haired Jonin
Hagoromo nodded. "Yes but he doesn't have to do it alone, he'll gain friends and allies along the way.
Hiruzen smiled then spoke. "My lord may I ask you a question, Naruto-kun has an ability that's called the gamer system. Would you know anything about that?" the old Hokage questioned.
"Yes actually that ability is given to those who are blessed by Gaia the primordial goddess of the earth and chaos." the sage said a little too happily.
"Well that is all. I must return to the spiritual plain, farewell young ones and raise the next Rikudō Sennin well…" Hagoromo started with a shit eating grin as he faded from this world.
All three men sat down to think of what they just heard. "Jiraiya, didn't you have a student with his eye before?" Hiruzen asked.
"Yes sensei, but he is no more." the gama-sannin replied.
"That is fine." letting out a sigh the Hokage spoke. "I'll let you train him alongside Kakashi-kun and i…" Jiraiya was about to speak before he was cut off by his sensei. "On one condition SHE isn't allowed near him by any means is that understood."
The toad sage straightened his posture and gave his commander a salut. "Understood" he affirmed his orders as Kakashi followed his lead.
"Kakashi-kun, the reason I summoned you is to let you know I'll be letting Naruto-kun move into the Namikaze estate with you and Jiraiya here. Hiruzen stated happily.
Kakashi was confused and didn't stay quiet about it. "But Hokage-sama, I thought the council stopped you from doing such a thing." the silver haired Jonin replied, not seeing the Sandaime's devilish smirk.
Hiruzen's smirk turned into a grin. "You see Kakashi-kun, Naruto-kun made a discovery. The boy is exactly like his father." he replied smugly. "He went through the triple S class law records and found a law that can't be infringed…" he trailed off for dramatic effect.
"What law would this be Sensei?" the white haired man asked, wondering why the blond was digging through those dusty old books, while Kakashi was wondering the same thing.
"Listen well my young padawan's, Naruto-kun found law SSSID9: Jinchuriki is a military asset, therefore the civilian council has no control of said asset, while the Shinobi council only has limited control of said asset in war times. clause enforced by: Tobirama Senju." Hiruzen enjoyed the confused looks that quickly turned to comprehension and understanding.
"Yu-yu-you mean that…" Kakashi trailed off.
"Yes Kakashi-kun you can freely interact with Naruto-kun as a big brother rather than a stranger giving advice." The sandaime enjoyed the look of happiness that came across the Jonin's face.
"Sensei, are you gonna announce his heritage or are you gonna wait?" Jiraiya questioned. wondering if it would be a good idea at the moment.
"No, I don't think it would be a good time to tell the village, they're hate is still strong along with Danzo's political power is still too great.
"Hokage-sama" called out an ANBU melting out of the shadows. "All the traders have been processed and got all the information of their informants and other spies have been detained."
"Good, we'll have a public execution for all of them in a week, go let the others know so the prepositions can be done." The sandaime ordered, sliding his gaze to his student."Jiraiya i want you to set up the best spy network inside the village, i want to know of everything that enters and exits this village, if what the sage says is true i want to build up our military power. I also want all security seals updated along with listening seals tagged everywhere in the village." turning his gaze to Kakashi. "I want you to get back into shape, I want you to be at SS class in six months, am I clear." the old Hokage ordered.
The two men stood and saluted."hai Hokage-sama. As they both scrambled out of the office.
"Tori"
"Hai Hokage-sama"an ANBU responded to their leader's call.
"Inform the council to meet in ten mins…if anyone's late I'm going to kill them and I don't care who it is." Hiruzen ordered.
"Hai Hokage-sama"
Ten minutes had passed and the Hokage wasn't pleased whatsoever, the Shinobi side of the council had shown up on time, but the civilian side hadn't arrived yet which he'll have to follow through with his threat. He slid his gaze over to the Shinobi side to see the clan heads of konoha and to say he was pleased with their response time. The furthest seat from his own, was the Hyuga with they're clan head being Hyuga Hiashi that actually looked relaxed and calm, completely opposite to his clan traditions. The Seat following his was the Aburame, with they're clan head being Aburame Shibi a silent and logical man that shows very little emotion a trait shared with his clan, following him was Inuzuka clan with they're head being Inuzuka Tsume the matriarch of said clan, she is a feral looking woman that believes in strong loyalty to her clan and the village. Next would be the Sarutobi clan with Sarutobi Asuma holding the clan head position while the hair isn't of age yet. Next to him is the yamanaka clan with Yamanka Inoichi heading the clan. Following him are the rest of the Ino-Shika-Cho formation. That being, Akamichi Choza and Nara Shikaku. The last three seats had the old Hokage depressed the vacancy of the Uzumaki, Uchiha and the Senju clans…before he could wallow in his sadeness for the loss of these clans someone spoke.
"Hokage-sama, when are you going to let that poor boy take what is rightfully his?" looking toward the voice he saw Tsume looking at him with a stones gaze trying to hold the sadness she held for her best friend's son, while the other clan heads nodded in agreement.
He sighed, "Tsume-san i would like to tell you that is the exact reason we're here, along with many other reasons, but since the civilian side of the council isn't here i would like Inoichi- san to do me a favor." the old fire shadow said, turning his gaze to the Yamanka waiting for his answer.
Hearing his name, Inoichi looked at his leader and nodded. "what can I help you with Hokage-sama?" He responded, curious about what the old man needed.
Hiruzen grined scaring all the occupants of the room. "Would like you to take Shikaku-san with you into my mind and look at the last 45 minutes of my memory. What you'll find you wouldn't believe it even if I told you." the Hokage said with a laugh.
"Troublesome" the Nara clan head muttered. Turning his lazy gaze to the grinning like a mad man Hokage. "I think you finally lost it."
The Hokage chuckled. "If you think I lost my mind join Inoichi and do a mind walk, what you'll see would make you think you lost it as well."
Curious, both men looked at each other and nodded to one another, getting up from their seats and walking over to the Hokage. Inoichi placed his hand on Shikaku's head then rested the other on the Sandaime's. The rest of the clan heads felt nervous about what the Hokage had to say that he needed those two to confirm it before he told the rest of them. 5 minutes had passed until the three men had regained they're consciousness, the Hokage with a smug expression while the other two looked like they saw a ghost. "umm is anyone gonna tell us what's going on, not all of us were in Hokage-sama's head?" Question the Akamichi clan head.
"I'll explain when the Civilian council decides to show up, it's a shame I'll have to follow through with my threat." the old kage said sadly. 20 more minutes had passed with idle chatter with the Hokage congrating the clan heads for their children's graduation to Genin, as well as asking for opinions for team placements, until the Civilian side of the council barged in fashionably late like they wouldn't get punished for their disrespect.
The first to speak was a portly man with brown shaggy hair, wearing way too many rings that he could barely move fingers. "Hokage-sama, WHAT is the meaning of this meeting." With that outburst the rest started bitching making the clan heads to sink back into their seats in fear knowing their place inside this village.
"Silence!!" Hiruzen roared while saturating the room with his killing intent, damn near making everyone piss themselves. "You are an advisory council for civilian affairs, YOU have no power in this village, I AM the Hokage of this village. YOU don't demand anything of me!!"
The clan heads all looked astonished, the Hokage finally put the civilians in their place, but what truly surprised them is what he said next. "But I won't have to worry about it because you will be eliminated immediately and your wealth…well that and all your holding as well as your business will be appropriated into the village's coffers ANBU!!!" and just like that in a flash of black blood sprayed while heads dropped to the floor and bodies crumpled, the scent of iron filling the room.
"From this day forward there will no longer be a civilian council." declared the sandaime. Confused, the clan heads were trying to figure out if they should be sacred or happy the waste of space was gone. "Hokage-sama, may I ask? What brought this course of action about?" questioned the ever unshakeable Hyuga clan head.
Hiruzen's face went into an emotionless expression. "You see, I've gained information on a potential threat, not just to the village but the world as a whole. The reason I had Inoichi-kun as well as Shikaku-kun conduct a mind walk on myself is to have some insurance of believability.
"No shit, if i didn't see in your memories i would have just left, but this is troublesome." interjected Nara, with an unnatural serious expression as he continued. "Hokage-sama, if you don't mind I'll explain it to the rest." asked, getting a nod of affirmation from his leader. Seeing his nod, Shikaku continued. "So to start this off right. The study of dimensional theory that the forth was conducting has been proven factual, and no i'm not talking about pocket dimensions like seals and sealing scrolls, but true dimensional worlds." Shikaku stated with a stones face.
The other clan heads were shocked, but the most logical of them spoke. "Sandaime-sama, how did you come across this information? It seems a little too illogical."
"That's what I would have believed, if it didn't come from the Great Sage himself." Inoichi made his thoughts known, basically dropping the proverbial paper bomb.
Hearing this the rest went silent, waitting for their leader to speak. "I'll retell the warning that the Rikudō Sennin had told me…" before he could finish a familiar voice called out. "Sensei, may I tell them?" Hiruzen nodded reluctantly, knowing if he were the one to relay the message it would be more believable.
"Jiraiya" the clan heads growled, making the white haired man flinch back, knowing that the clan heads were pissed with him. His will strengthened and his resolve hardened, with steely eyes he spoke. "I will atone for my sins, my wife and child be damned. Th-The least I-I could do to make it up to the child and my student." the regret could be seen in his eye…but more was there determination. "Well for what the Sandaime was about to say. The child of prophecy has been found…"
The clan heads looked, intrigued he continued. Uzumaki Naruto, the descendant of my daughter as well as the host of my oldest son Kurama… "Uzumaki Naruto has been chosen as the savior of this world as well as another, there are beings trying to breach the veil of our world they are called the outer gods. They are foul and evil beings that consume and corrupt all forms of life…i've glimpsed beyond the veil to see the other world and it was a horrifying sight, a scarlet rot writhing, consuming and corrupting life, a star lit beast tainting and misleading life to destroy itself pushing brothers and sisters to kill each other for power, a formless being waiting to drown the world in it's tainted blood and many others." Jiraiya recited the Sage's words.
Some say visions of prophecies are held by those blessed by thy Erd Tree, but to those cursed by thy Tree will never be blessed so, then why would a banished child of thy Golden linyage see so. Her heart felt strength once more, thy hero, one of purple eyes foreign to this world. Yet shined with power and kindness, one of nine tails, Thy one that shined of true gold.
"I'll be waiting for thou, thy true golden hero."
