Unlikely Couple

Hello everyone! I'm getting to this story after long time of trying and failing. Of course, I think I got a better gist of story writing and telling. At least I hope I do… Btw this story's timeline and events ARE VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE ORIGINAL NARUTO STORYLINE! Meaning some people are alive, some are dead, it's quite different from the normal timeline.

Anyways, as you can tell by the title of this story. That's right folks, ya'll got your eyes on a new Senju Naruto story. With Naruto being the son of Tsunade!

This story idea has been something I've tried to do before. Still didn't really work, but I'm gonna take a crack shot at it again. Of course, I got other stories, yes, I know. But honestly, I think I'm getting to what I want in my stories.

This story is more or less a tribute to the two real good Naruto Senju stories. "The Hope of the Senju Clan" by Aragon Potter, which his story was inspired by "Senju Naruto" by Baal of Yarns. I hope you all will enjoy the story, of course, things will be much different from the other stories. Though some parts, I had to add in, they're just hilarious!

For the key points I will touch down at the end of the chapter in my author's note. Of course, I suggest reading through this chapter first. Then read the end notes so there isn't any misunderstandings.

Now as for pairings… well I'll make it simple, this Senju Naruto story will be a harem. However, I'm keeping it condensed, one character I am bringing from another anime. However, I will not say who it is, when they'll show up. As for the others, there's a total of 5. Because I am evil, I'll reveal only some of them.

Yugito, Temari, and Ino (Yes Ino, because I like ponytails, and I plan on making her a bit different).

There's two more, but that's it, no more, keeping it like this.

With that said, we'll get right to the story!

Year 64 *End of the Third Great Shinobi War* *Konoha*

With the end of the Third Great Shinobi war the five great nations, Konoha, Kumo, Iwa, Suna, and Kiri. Peace finally reigned over the lands, but of course not with the dangers that continuously lurk in the shadows.

But for now, currently the newly named Yodaime Hokage, Minato Namikaze can be seen with some of the male Shinobi from Konoha. Especially his sensei Jiraiya, the Toad Sage. "Come on Minato! Now's the time to celebrate! We need to go drinking!"

Minato chuckled lightly as he looked to his sensei, "Sensei, I'm no good when it comes to alcohol, besides I'll end up dragging you back home."

"Hokage-sama has a point there Jiraiya-sama, I suggest it wouldn't be a wise idea to do so." Jiraiya and Minato looked towards Fugaku who had a rather lighthearted smile on his face.

"I think Fugaku has got a point, besides you're the only one who would get that wasted." Everyone then turned to another voice which belonged to Hiashi Hyuga looking to them with a rather unnerved look on his face. "Not only that, but Hokage-sama needs to keep up a good public image too."

Jiraiya let out a long sigh and stuck his tongue out, "Baahhh! You brats are no fun! Hmp! Well even maybe so, who knows maybe you can get lucky tonight, Minato! Find yourself a nice lady friend!"

Fugaku looked to Jiraiya confused, "Jiraiya-sama as much I know what type of person you are. I think you would have some respect for Hokage-sama. He isn't going to see some random woman other than Kushina."

"Indeed, Hokage-sama has been quite close to her ever since they were kids. Working with Hokage-sama after him being promoted to Jonin. I don't think he's the type of person." Hiashi looked to Jiraiya with a rather surprised look on his face. Surely Jiraiya had better respect and understanding of his prized student than that.

Jiraiya smirked as he looked to Minato to which Minato only sighed, "Jiraiya-sama isn't entirely wrong… once Kakashi was put into the Anbu. Soon after Kushina also decided to join as well, she became a captain and Kakashi followed her into her platoon."

Hiashi looked at Minato surprised, "Really? I remember you two being quite sweet on one another. What happened?" Fugaku even looked towards his best friend's direction confused wanting an answer.

"Ehhh… well I tried talking to Kushina about getting married and having some kids." Minato looked away nervously with a sweat on his forehead, "But she didn't like the idea of moving too fast and wanted to work on her Shinobi career. Which, I don't entirely blame her, ever since then she tends to keep busy. I don't see her all too often anymore." Minato said with a rather depressed tone in his voice.

Jiraiya quickly wrapped his arm around Minato's shoulder, "COME ON KID! BRIGHTEN UP! I'm sure we can find a few cuties at some bars around here! Come now!"

Minato looked towards Fugaku and Hiashi with a sweat drop on his forehead, "Thanks for at least accompanying us, you two don't have to stay if you don't want to."

Fugaku nodded his head, "I appreciate it, and I at least enjoyed the company. Alas, but if I keep Mikoto waiting any longer. I'm afraid I'll have to sleep on the couch tonight." Fugaku waved as he disappeared in a swirl of leaves.

"Hmmm indeed, good luck Hokage-sama, if you need anything just let me know." Hiashi left in the similar matter of how Fugaku left with a swirl of leaves left where he once stood.

Like that, one of the Legendary Sannin and the Yodaime Hokage made their way into one of the many bars in Konoha. Master and student walked into the bar, and the two recognized a certain blonde hair Kunoichi at the bar. "Tsunade-sama? What are you doing here?"

Tsunade recognizing said voice turned her head to see Jiraiya and Minato. Though Jiraiya had a stupid perverted grin on his face, "Jiraiya? Minato? The hell are you two doing here?"

"Ara? Jiraiya-sama? Hokage-sama?" The two then turned their heads to see Hitomi Hyuga said surprised and then Mikoto Uchiha walked up next to Hitomi.

Jiraiya raised an eyebrow mighty confused, "Oi, what is going on here?"

Just then Mikoto and Hitomi quickly moved up to Jiraiya grabbing his shoulders, "Come on we're leaving."

"What?! Ack! HEY! WAIT! ARE YOU GOING TO DO-!" Before Jiraiya could finish, Hitomi shot a gentle fist strike at his stomach knocking him out.

"Hokage-sama, Tsunade-sama please enjoy yourselves." Mikoto giggled as she walked out of the bar dragging an unconscious Jiraiya whose head hit the door frame on the way out. Minato flinched seeing that, he knew Jiraiya was going to feel that in the morning.

Tsunade with a tint of pink on her cheeks sighed as she turned back to the bartender, "Of course, so Fugaku, Hiashi, Mikoto, and Hitomi were up to this? Damn them…"

Minato's eyes widened rather surprised, but now understanding what was going on. Minato made his way over to the bar and chuckled, "I did not expect Fugaku and Hiashi to do something like this."

Tsunade turned to Minato narrowing her eyes while raising an eyebrow, "So… they didn't tell Jiraiya about this blind date thing. I only agreed to do this because I lost a bet to Hitomi and Mikoto okay!" Tsunade growled as she slammed her fist on the bar counter.

Minato chuckled nervously, "Well isn't that something, those two encouraged me to do this."

Tsuande raised an eyebrow, "Oh… wait aren't you seeing Kushina? I thought you two were close."

Minato sighed as he shook his head, "Things didn't work out, I wanted to get married and have a family. She didn't want that, she wanted to focus on her Shinobi career. Since then, she's driven herself into being the Anbu captain. I hardly ever see her, if it's for anything it's a mission debrief, and she leaves."

Tsunade, rather surprised by this, nods her head, "Oi, bartender fire sake for two."

"Coming right up Tsunade-sama."

Minato chuckled as he turned to Tsunade, she wasn't too far away from age. So, she might as well entertain the thought of seeing who Minato was like. Of course, for a chance to there be anything else afterward. It would be very hard to even say, only because after all she had yet to find anyone to love.

*Few Hours Later* And Some Drinks Later

Tsunade could be seen taking a large slug of sake from her cup, "AH! Nothing beats like having some good old sake! Am I right, Hokage-sama?"

Minato taking another sip, not as hammered as Tsunade was, was still tipsy nodded his head, "After everything yeah it does, I am curious though, how are you holding up?"

Tsunade sighed placing a hand on her head, "Seeing Hitomi and Mikoto happy, makes me rather envious of them!" Tsunade slammed her hand on the bar table, "Why can't I land a man myself! I think I'm rather good looking and could land a good man!"

Minato nodded his head agreeing with her statement, "What about Jiraiya-sensei? I know he's loved you for while."

Tsunade blushed deepened as she poured herself another cup slugging it back down her throat, "AH! Tch…" Tsunade stared at her now empty cup, "Hesh… always been thore for mae… buat I caun't see him anythang m-moure t-thawn a ba-baka Otouto." Tsunade then looked to Minato as she looked at him with interest, "B-Baut… yoooouuuu on thae awther hand… aren't bad yourself" Tsunade poured another drink for Minato and another for herself.

The two both slugged it back as Minato said, "AH! Yep that hit thae spat!" Minato and Tsunade both slammed their sake cups down, "Y-Ya knaw whut T-Tsunade… h-haw about a swing at me. M-maybe we were made for one another." Minato added to which Tsunade looked to him narrowing both eyes at him.

After a moment of thinking Tsunade smirked, "Swure! Whay naut! Let's hawd buck to yurs place! Thawn… I caun rully shaw ya whut a reaal Kunoichi is like."

Soon the two got up from their seats, paying the bartender and left towards Minato's apartment.

*With Hitomi and Mikoto*

"You think it'll work." Hitomi looked to Mikoto.

"I think it will, I mean what's best for two individuals with broken hearts." Mikoto looked to her best friend, "I think they'll be okay, Tsunade-sama and Hokage-sama, as long as we've known one another. I'm sure they could give one another a chance."

"Though…" Hitomi placed a hand on her cheek, "I can't help but feel a bit bad for Kushina, I mean they were sweet on one another for a while."

Mikoto shook her head and let a sigh out, "That was her choice to continue her career as a Shinobi, there is nothing more we can do. Besides, Kushina would understand that people need to move on, including previous boyfriends and friends."

Hitomi nodded her head too, "Kushina had her chance, and Tsuande is long overdue with a date. We're all friends, and we all look out for one another." Hitomi then looked to the unconscious Jiraiya, "Which reminds me… what are you guys doing with him?"

Mikoto shrugs her shoulders, "Who cares, dump him by the trash, he'll be fine."

"Also, did we even note the age difference between the two?" Hitomi looked to the Uchiha Matriarch a little worried.

"You're looking too much into it Hitomi, besides they're both responsible adults. Well maybe when Tsunade-sama isn't gambling, but what could be worse." Mikoto then grabbed Jiraiya's unconscious body, using a bit of chakra, tossed him into the trash cans.

*Next Day Minato's House*

The next morning Minato slowly opened his eyes to find himself flat on his back. Minato recognized his ceiling and blankets. He let a sigh out as he looked down to see himself naked, still groggily and tired. Minato didn't think too much like it and rolled over to go back to sleep, "Zzzzz the wars over… I can sleep… more… I'M HOKAGE!" Minato shot up from his bed sitting up in shock and looking around his room. His eyes quickly darted around his room to his alarm clock, thankfully it said 7:40 am. He needs to be at the office by 9:00 am, sitting up Minato swung his legs over the side of the bed.

"Geez, this is the last time I go drinking with… wait… wasn't it with Jiraiya-sensei?" Minato tried to remember what happened until he heard a moan off to the side. Minato turned his head and saw a bump on the bed. Leaning closer towards the headframe of the bed he sees a mop of blonde hair. Minato's eyes widened as the back of the head soon rolled to face him, and he saw the sleeping face of none other than Tsunade Senju. "Woah… wait… OH NO! HOW IN THE WORLD DID I?! OH KAMI!" Minato froze and thought for a moment as he remembered back to the other night. His face flushed remembering the rather interesting acts of fun they did. Especially the nurse outfit that Tsunade had ready for some reason.

Before anything else could happen, Minato went ahead and moved over to some clothing. He quickly slipped them on before the last of the Senju clan woke up. As right on que, the said woman began to stir when Minato went ahead and decided to sit on the bed. Minato waited in anticipation as Tsunade opened her eyes and slowly sat up.

Tsunade opened her eyes not recognizing the area around her, the bed, sheets, blankets, pillows, and even the wall she was staring at. Tsunade slowly sat up in bed not realizing she was in her birthday suit. Seeing Minato sitting on the foot of the bed waving to her was rather scared. Tsuande looked at Minato as a blush crept up to her face. Tsunade's mind began to reprocess everything that happened when she went to the bar last night. She also made sure to bring up the blankets to keep her modesty.

Tsuande looked at Minato, she was hoping nothing would ever be talked about. Minato was hoping he'd live to see the next ten minutes of his life. Tsuande narrowed her eyes at Minato and frowned, "As much… as I want to pound you…" Tsuande froze at that statement as Minato blushed brighter again, "Correction, as much as I wanna murder you… I won't…" Tsunade looked away from Minato, "I-I'll admit… my suggestion of a drinking game last night didn't go the way I thought it would…"

Minato only nodded his head agreeing with the Senju, mainly he didn't want to get his face smashed in.

"We will never speak of this… understand?" Tsuande looked to Minato with her eyes with a raging fire, "Because if I catch wind that pervert or even anyone found out…" Tsunade raised her fist up as Minato saw visible chakra surrounding her fist, "I will personally make sure you never will be able actively be a dutiful leader of Konoha AND father… is that clear?"

"Crystal."

"Good…" Tsunade grabbed her clothes. She then quickly Shushined out of his room.

Minato fell onto his bed, but once he did, he fell into a crack on his bed. Minato quickly got up and found his bed was split into two. Minato deadpanned seeing Tsunade break his bed before leaving. "Did we go at it that hard we broke the bed?!" Minato couldn't recall them ever breaking the bed during their night together.

Though once the threatening look of Tsunade came back into his mind. Minato decided to stop dawdling on it and move on. HE DID NOT want to think too much about it, because this is Tsunade.

She could catch wind of anything thinking about her in a perverted way. She'd personally beat the living shit out of anyone.

Minato decided to go eat and get ready for the day, he went to go take a shower.

After some time, once he was ready to leave. Minato came walking out of his house and began to make his way towards the Hokage Tower. Just then he saw Jiraiya, "Morning Minato! Man, I must have drunk so much that I passed out! Found myself by the bar's trash bin this morning. Also, currently my wallet is missing, well anyways, what the hell man! Why'd you leave me?!"

Minato was now unsure of how to answer his sensei, "W-well… errr Sensei… I uhhh."

Before Minato could continue Jiraiya looked at his student confused until he noticed something. Jiraiya walked up closer to Minato and moved the collar of his jacket to the right. Jiraiya's eyes widen, "WOAH?! WHAT?! MINATO! A HICKEY!"

Minato began to panic, "W-Wait?! Sense!" Minato began to look towards his neck with worry in his own eyes!

Jiraiya also took a sniff from Minato too, "It's faint BUT I CAN SPELL PERFUME ON YOU!" Jiraiya's eyes widen in excitement!

"Sensei I can explain!"

Minato was cut off by Jiraiya again, "What need is there to explain about!" Minato felt his stomach drop, "YOU GOT LUCKY LAST NIGHT MINATO!" Never mind Minato felt better now, "I NEED TO KNOW THE DETAILS!"

Minato chuckled as he held his hand up, "Uhhh could we maybe not in the middle of the street in the morning.

"Come on Minato! I need to know how it was! Was she a moaner? Screamer? Squirter? Did she like to play dress up?! Did you use any of the positions in my stories?! Come on, kid, I need to know! Wait! More importantly did she have big boobs?! Did the curtains match the drapes?! COME ON KID I NEED TO KNOW! I NEED DETAILS DAMMIT!" Jiraiya begged as Minato continued to talk towards the Hokage Tower.

Two Weeks Later *Fire Capital*

Tsunade was currently in the Fire Capital deciding to spend some time there. As well as help out around the city who needed healing done. Tsunade was also accompanied by Shizune Kato, Dan Kato's niece. Tsunade took Shizune under her wing when Dan passed away and began to teach Shizune medical ninjutsu. Shizune was talented and skill in the art, and this way Tsunade could travel with someone.

Shizune looked to her sensei confused, "Sensei, are you alright? You were able to heal the lady who broke her ankle. But that took you almost ten minutes to heal her. Normally it takes you five to heal something like that."

Tsunade and Shizune were back in their hotel. The said Slug Princess sat down on the chair with sweat dripping down her face, "I-I have no idea what's going on Shizune… it's been weird. My chakra control is perfect, it felt shaky and wobbly earlier. The fact I even healed that girl is crazy." Tsunade lifted her hand up to her face to look at it.

Shizune was concerned, "Normally you don't get sick, but maybe I should do a diagnosis for you. First, maybe you should go shower and freshen up, then I can see what's wrong."

"Thanks, Shizune, just give me a moment." Tsunade began to get up and walk towards the bathroom where she got undressed and began to wash herself.

After some time Shizune prepared some dinner and her sensei came walking out. "Dinner is on the table Sensei, maybe try eating too. It might give you the energy you need, may even alleviate the issues you have."

Tsuande simply nodded as the two sat down to eat and chatted about the day. As well as their next decision to move towards the Land of Hot Water. Once they were done Tsunade stood up and walked over into the family room. She sat on an ottoman as Shizune began to do her regular checkup.

"Hmmm you're not running a fever, so you're not battling anything." Shizune started with her glowing green hands-on Tsunade's head. Shizune began to make he way down towards shoulders and found nothing. Her hands began to move over towards the Slug Princess's impressive bust too, again still nothing. Though Shizune did note that her breasts seemed to be rather swollen to a degree. However, it wasn't a crazy amount either, "Sensei does your back bother you by chance?"

Tsunade pondered for a moment and nodded her head, "Maybe just a bit, but not too much."

Shizune continued further to her stomach, her stomach seemed fine. Kidneys, liver, seemed fine as well. Once Shizune moved her hand lower, she felt a ping of charka. Shizune froze in shock confused, "Sensei… did you just channel some chakra or something? Like near your stomach?"

Tsunade looked to Shizune confused, "What? Of course, not, my chakra control has been all shit today."

Shizune looked to Tsunade and back down to her stomach. Shizune sent another small pulse of chakra to the said ping, and Shizune felt it again. "Sensei… could you maybe… I don't know release some of your chakra?" Shizune felt that this bit of chakra was similar to Tsunade… but different. AS IF THERE WAS ANOTHER BEING WITHIN HER!

Tsunade confused did so for a moment and then relaxed.

Shizune froze once again… there was no mistaking it. The two charkas that Shizune found WERE INDEED DIFFERENT! Shizune looked up to her sensei and mouthed/mumbled, "Pregnant."

Tsunade looked at her student confused, "Speak up Shizune, you're mumbling, I didn't hear what you said."

"Pregnant…"

Tsunade froze.

"Y-You're pregnant…"

Tsunade's eyes widen in shock, confusion, and worry, "P-Pregnant?!"

"SENSEI YOU'RE PREGNANT?!" Shizune stood up looking at her sensei aghast by the sudden news.

Tsunade didn't even know what to say, how did this all happened! She hasn't had sex in years! Plus, her previous lover was Dan she hasn't had!

…

Tsunade's mind wandered back to Minato… and she saw his stupid grin on his face. The one Jiraiya makes too. A fire began to glow in Tsunade's eyes, and Shizune saw it.

Someone was going to die.

For the first time ever, it wasn't going to be Jiraiya.

*Konoha's Gates*

The current guards by the gate were Kotetsu and Izumo and so far it has been dry. Granted war by no means was something they wished for. Though it did suck having to guard the gate, all they did was approve people coming in and leaving the village. "Man… things sure have gotten quiet since the war. Not that I hope for another one."

"Even still Kotetsu," Izumo looked to his friend, "You should be careful about what you ask for, for all you know you could be…" *Shake*

The two blinked for a moment until *Shake*, and before they knew it. *SHAKE* *SHAKE* *SHAKE* *SHAKE* The ground beneath had a vibrating sound, "W-What in the hell is going on?!" Izumo shouted as the two began to run towards the entrance to look on ahead.

"Wait… w-who is that?" Kotetsu lifted his hands up to block the sun, and he squinted his eyes. He saw a figure seemingly running towards them.

Before they could register and realize who it was. The figured jumped forward at a dash like motion towards them, "O-OH KAMI DUCK!" Kotetsu hit the dirt along with Izumo as the said figure dashed over them. The two slowly stood up as they saw the back of the shirt of the person who ran over them, "I-It's… the Slug Princess! Tsuande-sama!"

Izumo looked worried as he turned back to his partner. Just then the short black haired Shizune came running in, "Sorry Kotetsu! Izumo! Tsunade is not in a happy mood! Sorry we can't do proper procedures!" Shizune continued to run after Tsunade worried for the baby's health with the way Tsunade was acting.

Izumo turned to Kotetsu and glared at him, "Great! LOOK WHAT YOU DID KOTETSU!"

"What I do?!"

"You just HAD to go and jinx today! Now some poor bastard is going to be on the receiving end of her fist!" Izumo looked onwards and then into the sky, "It's all thanks to you Kotetsu… jeez, what did the other person ever do to you!"

Kotetsu looked at Izumo irritated by the comment, but he had to admit.

Whoever seriously pissed off the Slug Princess. May Kami have mercy on their soul.

¯҉¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯҉

*Hokage Office*

Minato was doing some paperwork meanwhile Hiruzen was off on the side reading Ich-Icha books that Jiraiya writes. Also, said Toad Sage was currently writing on a notebook for the next story. He recently just got done doing some 'research' to help him make new material for the books. "Damn this paperwork, this is getting annoying."

Hiruzen could only chuckle at it, "That's why I didn't want to become Hokage." Jiraiya laughed back as he continued to write.

Just then the three heard some talking and commotion going on outside. "Hey! Wait! Tsunade-sama! You can't just-!"

The said secretary of the Hokage was interrupted once there was a loud *CRASH* sound come from the other room. The three Hokage level shinobi looked onwards in confusion when they heard Tsunade.

Just then the doors burst open with rage-filled eyes looking dead at Minato. "MINATO! I'M GONNA KILL YOU! BUT NOT BEFORE CASTERATING YOU!"

Hiruzen, Minato, and Jiraiya all stood up in shock and confusion with Tsunade's current threat. From her look, actions, and aura she was dead serious. Tsunade glared at Minato just as Shizune came running into the room, "T-Tsuande-sensei! P-Please! C-Calm down it's not good for you!"

Tsunade glared more daggers at Minato as he fist clenched harder at her side, "I'M GONNA KILL YOU MINATO!"

Just then three Anbu jumped down in front of them. The one in the middle had a weasel mask with two Sharingan eyes glowing at Tsunade. The one on the right had a dragon mask on, he had a single glowing Sharingan eye. Then the one left of the weasel masked Anbu had a dog mask with a single left glowing Sharingan eye. "Tsunade-sama, we implore you step back from the Hokage." Weasel responded.

"We are his bodyguards; we cannot allow you to harm him. Regardless of what he has done." Dragon added.

"Therefore we'll." Dog was cut off as Tsunade continued to glare at the three Anbu with no care in the world.

"If you know what's good for you… YOU THREE AND THE OTHER WILL LEAVE INSTANLY! UNLESS YOU WANT ME TO REARRANGE YOUR BODY PARTS FOR YOU! I'LL DO SO UNTIL YOU LOOK LIKE A PREZTEL! THE OTHER MEDICAL NINS WON'T BE ABLE TO DETERMINE FROM YOUR MOUTH AND YOUR ASSHOLE!" Tsunade roared out scaring Hiruzen, Minato, and Jiraiya even more.

Just what is going on?

The three Anbu looked to one another, without even needing to talk. Their simple looks and glances at one another. They knew what they had to do. The three turned to Minato and bowed their heads, "Hokage-sama, we believe you have this one covered." The three disappeared and left the room along with the other Anbu who had a cat mask.

Minato glared looking at the window they left through, "COWARDS! I'LL HAVE THEIR HEADS FOR THEIR INSUBORDINATION! WHAT HAPPENED TO PROTECTING YOUR HOKAGE?!" Just then Tsuande continued to glare at Minato, "SEALS! NOW MINATO!"

Minato still in his stupor, Hiruzen deciding to try to ease Tsunade's anger. Quickly made the seals to put up a privacy barrier up for Minato. Tsunade didn't even give Hiruzen a nod of thanks or anything. Tsunade stormed over towards Minato, lifted her fist up and smashed it down on the Hokage desk. She then grabbed pieces and chucked them as if she was separating the sea herself.

Tsunade then grabbed Minato by the collar and lifted him up, "YOU BASTARD! I'M GONNA KILL YOU!"

Just then this was enough as Jiraiya quicky ran over towards his prized student's side. He placed a hand on Tsuande, "Hime! Come on! That's enough! If you're putting on this show, surely it has to be directed at me? Minato hasn't done anything wrong at all, he's been here the whole time." Hiruzen nodded his head in agreement, indeed it would have been Jiraiya who did something wrong.

Tsuande glared to Jiraiya and continued to hold onto Minato and said, "WELL I WOULDN'T HAVE COME BACK TO THIS VILLAGE IF THIS BASTARD HADN'T KNOCK ME UP! TELL THAT TO MY FUCKING UTERUS PERVERT!"

Shizune sighed as she saw it was no use trying to calm her sensei down. But even still, Shizune had to try for her unborn little sister or brother. Shizune walked over placing a hand on Tsunade's shoulder, "Tsunade-sensei! Please! For the baby's sake! All this stress can't be good for it!"

Tsunade growled as she dropped Minato, as he felt to the floor in a messy heap. Tsunade and Shizune walked back towards the door of the room.

Meanwhile the entire time the room was silent as Minato stared at Tsunade in shock. Meanwhile Jiraiya looked onwards in shock looking back and forth at Minato and Tsunade. Hiruzen currently had dropped not only his pipe onto the floor. But along with the current issue of Icha-Icha he was reading.

"P-Pregnant?! F-From that one time?!" Minato screamed out in shock as placed his hand on the back of his head.

"Yes you daft idiot! How many more times do I have to say it!" Tsunade shouted back as she crossed her arms under her chest.

Jiraiya tried to think for a moment until it hit him, "Tsunade… Minato… the bar! NO WAY! THE GIRL YOU GOT LUCKY WITH!" Jiraiya looked to Minato as he slowly stood back up to his feet.

Minato was rather shocked by the news, honestly he was surprised. But although not unhappy about said news. Minato collected himself blinking and said, "Uhhh well… errr uhh that means… it is mine… right?"

"Yes you idiot! You're the only one that I slept with in the past two weeks! Jeez!" Tsunade looked away rather still angry and slightly emberassed too.

Hiruzen still was at a loss of words.

Tsunade then glared back at Minato, "Wait! If you think you're going to try to make me-!"

"No! Never!" Minato quickly stopped Tsunade's mind from going somewhere he didn't want, "Ummm actually… I've always wanted to start a family. Just… well under better circumstances honestly. Though… I guess this works out too… I-I'm going to be a father." Minato doing his best to make of the situation only saw real good from it. He's gonna be a father, something he has wanted for a long time. Could it have been with someone he actually loved like Kushina, yes, but you can't always get what you want now can ya?

"W-Well good… I'm going to keep it and raise it."

"I mean… well that means we'll have to set up a place for you to stay and-!"

Before Minato could continue Tsunade held her hand up, "NO! The last thing I am going to do is stay in this Kami forsaken village! I'm not letting this village take anything more away from me." Hiruzen and Minato understood that reasoning very much.

Jiraiya was still computing what was going on.

Just then Jiraiya snapped back to reality, "Actually… I think it's a good idea."

Tsuande was surprised along with Hiruzen, Minato, and Shizune. The fact he agreed to something like this was unusual. "Oh… well uhhh." Tsunade was at a loss of words on this one.

"Hmm I can see the idea of doing so, trying to keep quiet about you having a child." Hiruzen picked up his pipe, relit it and took a puff, "Word of you having a child could cause a lot of problems."

"W-Well I plan on staying on the outer rim of the Land of Fire. I'm going to stay at a summer house Hashirama-Jiji made for us to retreat to." Tsunade let a sigh as she felt her own anger and more begin to subside. Which also made Shizune happy that Tsunade was calming down.

Minato walked over to Tsunade and smiled as he rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. "Well, I uhhh I promise to do my best to help support and provide for you and the baby. Regardless of if it is a she or he… I want to be there for it." Minato took out one of his tri-pronged kunai, "Here take this… just throw it and it tells me when one of my markers are thrown. I can teleport to it immediately if you ever need anything."

Tsunade just sighed as she took the kunai, "I want no one else to hear of this, even when I give birth, it will only be Shizune who helps out. I want Biwako to be there too, besides Shizune, she's the only other medical-nin I could trust."

Hiruzen smiled at that, "Well… I'll make sure she learns through a safe manner Tsunade… well I guess a congratulations are in a order?" Hiruzen was glad, this could be very good for Tsunade. This baby could very well help Tsuande get past her past trauma.

"To make things easier, I'll make sure to send over funds to your account. I can help pay off your gambling tabs too Tsuande. I want to make sure you can live comfortably and more." Minato added in to which Tsunade appreciated it greatly.

"Thank you… I rather not use my family fortune to pay off my gambling tabs… *sigh* you're taking this better than I thought you would." Tsunade had to admit she was wrong about the way Minato would react. He's just a goofy Hokage who wanted to have a family, can't entirely blame him for it. As well as Tsunade understanding the similar feeling of wanting to be with that said loved one. It can't be easy knowing the person he cared for didn't want the family he wanted. She was still alive, meanwhile for her, her lover has been long since dead.

"I know this doesn't make things easy Tsuande, but I could we can do our best together. Be good parents to our kid… so if you ever need anything. Please contact me, I will do everything in my power to help you and the child." Minato said maturely to which even Tsunade had to admit was nice to hear. She fought her small blush she had easily, but not unnoticed by Shizune. But even still it wasn't something to really linger on either.

Just then Jiraiya chuckled and scratched his cheek nervously, "Well there we have it… man…"

Minato looked to Jiraiya and frowned, "I-I'm sorry sensei… I uhhh just couldn't bring my self to tell you the truth. Because I know how much you-."

Minato was cut off when Jiraiya held his hand up in the air. Tsuande, Shizune, Hiruzen, and Minato saw a rather serious look on his face. "There is truly nothing to say sorry for Minato, but if you feel that bad about it… then…"

Jiraiya seemingly had a serious tone to his voice to which Minato was prepared. Prepared for his sensei to lash out at him. Just then Jiraiya slumped to the ground, "I NEED DETAILS MINATO! PLEASE! WAS SHE A MOANER! SCREAMER! SQUIRTER?! I NEED TO KNOW THIS INFORMATION! YOU GOT TO TASTE THE FORBBIDEN FRUIT THAT NO MAN WILL EVER GET TO TRY! I NEED TO KNOW HOW HER BOOBS FELT! WHAT IT FELT LIKE IN ALL IT'S GLORY! DID THE CURTAINS MATCH THE DRAPES! I NEED DETAILS DAMMIT! GIVE THEM TO ME!"

Tsunade was blushing up a storm along with anger and more beginning to fill her eyes. That included a raging flame appearing in the pupils of her eyes. Shizune was even giving a disgusted look to Jiraiya. Tsuande glared also at Minato that if he spilled ANYTHING to Jiraiya. Minato saw Tsunade's look as well, it was promise of never ending pain and suffering.

Tsuande began to make her way towards Jiraiya as she rolled her fist up. For some unknown reason, her perfect chakra control came back. Just for this moment, to beat the pervert senseless for his lack of tact and perverseness.

Just before the Slug Princess began to bring down her haymakers of punches. Jiraiya stood back up placing his hand on his chin, with his other hand supporting the elbow of his other arm, "You know that does makes sense now. I never took Tsuande to being a cougar, no wonder why she never fell for my manly charms."

Hiruzen simply just facepalmed.

For the next two hours, Hiruzen and Minato watched as Tsuande and Shizune mercilessly beat the Toad Sage to a pulp. Bones broken, snapped, smashed, and more for it to only be healed. Then broken again, conically Tsunade's chakra control stabilized to simply beat the pervert that was currently at the end of her fist.

Once the two were done with their brutalization of Jiraiya, Minato and Hiruzen continued the adult conversation with Tsuande and Shizune.

"Well with that said Tsunade, we'll make sure to keep this completely confidential. Biwako will be informed in a very safe way too. So don't worry." Hiruzen added to which Tsunade nodded her head agreeing.

Tsunade sighed as she looked to Minato, "I'll be going now, you can come by when you're free or when I call." Tsuande turned to leave as Shizune followed with Hiruzen releasing the privacy barrier.

Minato let a sigh of relief out as he slumped into his chair and Hiruzen took a very long drag of his pipe. Just then Cat came back and went to her spot. With weasel, dog, and dragon came back into the room once the seals were removed. Minato glared at the three Anbu who left him abandoned but didn't bother to lecture them. He'd have their asses for this on another time.

Because the Anbu currently saw bloody and beaten heap of a mess. That they could only determine it to be Jiraiya.

*Time Skip 8 Months and a week Later*

Tsuande and Shizune have been living in the old Senju Family Summer house. They've been there trying to live quietly and peacefully. Of course, on the off chance they would use transformation jutsu to go into town. This was done to keep their identities secret and hidden.

Of course, Tsunade and Shizune did some healing on the side when it was needed. Though mainly Shizune was one doing healing while Tsuande supervised. This way Shizune could continue to practice with her own studies and healing as well.

But with this part of Tsunade's pregnancy was usual morning sickness, craving for some dumb reason ramen. The only other who enjoyed ramen Tsuande could think of was Kushina, maybe it was Uzumaki blood or something. Then the mood swings! Kami the mood swings! Tsuande hasn't felt as moody or bitchy! It annoyed Tsuande to high hells, it also made he want to castrate Minato for causing this on her!

Even though she knew full well that it took two the tango.

Of course, when Tsunade did need things she would throw the tri-pronged kunai at the wall. She would use and abuse that power Minato gave her. Whether she wanted hot and fresh ramen to eat, groceries, or certain household items you couldn't get at the village she was at.

What's more to it, Minato would find himself appear on top of a heated stove. In the middle of a freezing cold bathtub. In a trashcan, on the roof of the house, in a closet, hamper, and even in a river!

Minato took the abuse like a champ, most men would have been fed up and annoyed. Though Minato couldn't really do anything about it, because he didn't want to face the wrath of Tsuande. Though explaining why he returned to Konaha to meetings either wet, bruised, or burned. He had to come up with some excuse all the time.

He had to even admit one time that he got socked in the face after a misjudged teleportation. He stated her threw a kunai the wrong way, and it landed in the female side of a spa. When he teleported, he got socked in the face.

Of course, the real story was that he went to go visit Tsunade during his free time. Tsuande forgot to leave the kunai outside of the bathroom. So when he appeared, he saw Tsuande in her birthday suit washing herself.

Just say that day was not a pleasant day, he spends majority of that day in self-exile. Tsunade could be a real cruel bitch when she wanted to be.

But in the end it was all worth it.

Currently Minato, Jiraiya, Hiruzen, Biwako, Shizune were all in Konoha. They were just outside of Konoha in a secret base. Of course, there were Anbu stationed out there. But no one knew what was going on except for the latter. Which Biwako was informed of Tsunade's pregnancy a couple days after Tsuande last visited.

Hiruzen stayed outside with said Anbu to protect the place.

Meanwhile inside of the private room, Tsunade laid on a bed. With the assistance of Biwako and Shizune who have been working nonstop for the past five hours. Tsunade's water finally broke to which she had Minato come and take her to the place where she would give birth in secrecy.

"Come on Tsunade-sensei, you've dilated more, but we need a bit longer before you can push." Shizune had Minato and Jiraiya staying more to the side but helped keep the warm water coming for Tsunade. As well as Jiraiya using his water nature to keep more water coming.

Finally after another four hours, Tsuande dilated enough where she could begin pushing. "Come on Tsuande-sensei! I can see the head, just keep pushing!"

"Come on you two! We need more water! Hurry it up!" Biwako barked out as Minato was flashing back and forth between Jiraiya and Biwako with water. Meanwhile Jiraiya was running on fumes here keeping up with the amount of water needed!

Biwako continued to keep Tsuande cool or warm whenever she needed it. As well as tried to keep the area as clean and sterile as possible.

"D-Dammit! G-GAHH! GET THIS KID OUT OF ME!" Tsuande continued to push as she was beginning to wrap up her delivery.

Biwako soon ushered Minato over as he quickly got to Tsunade's side to hold her hand. Though that part was a mistake as he instantly felt his entire hand shatter. Tsunade's superhuman strength crushed his hand causing the Yodaime to hold in his screams of pain.

Shizune continued to say, "Come on Tsuande! Just a bit more! More of the head is coming out!"

"T-THE BRAT DOESN'T WANT TO LEAVE! JUST TAKE HIM OUT!" Tsuande screamed as she let out another push. Shizune was there to hold the head gently and pull the baby out of Tsuande. Biwako quickly walked over to help remove the afterbirth from Tsuande as well.

"Congratulations Tsunade-sensei! It's a healthy baby boy!" Shizune cheered out, "Let me clean him up and I'll bring him to you." Shizune quickly took the new baby and began to clean him off meanwhile Minato walked over to Shizune. With his current broken hand, he pulled out his tri-pronged kunai. Shizune looked to the Hokage as she held out the umbilical cord.

Minato got to cut it, Shizune cleaned up the baby boy and wrapped him up. Shizune then handed the baby to Minato, "Here… why don't you bring the little guy over to Tsunade."

Minato took the moment to take in his new son. He had light blonde hair similar to his mothers along with her noes and face's shape. Minato smiled as his little boy as he began to walk over towards Tsunade. Minato looked up to see Tsuande beginning to catch her breath as Biwako was finishing up.

Biwako looked over to see the bundle of joy in Minato's arms. She simply smiled as Minato leaned next to Tsunade, "Look Tsuande… our son… our baby." Minato reached his son out to Tsuande who only cooed.

Tsuande smiled as she reached out and held the baby in her arms. She brought him close to her heart to which the baby began to respond and to. "He's beautiful… my little baby boy… my…" Tsuande paused for a moment to think about it. Jiraiya, who's also been trying to catch his breath. Came walking over to see his new godson, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

"Naruto… my little Naruto… Naru-chan." Tsunade cooed even more as she kissed his delicate head and held him close.

Minato smiled; he liked the name Naruto a lot actually. Minato proposed this name to Tsuande after a book that Jiraiya made. It may not have been the most popular, but it was a favorite to Minato. "A wonderful name Tsunade… glad you liked it so much."

"I think it works wonderfully." Tsunade looked over to Jiraiya, "For a pervert… you're good at making names more than anything else."

For Jiraiya it really touched him, "Oh… wow! Man… I'm glad you liked the name so much. I'm honored truly." Jiraiya looked at his godson as he smiled, "Wow… didn't think they'd name him after one of my characters. Of course, it's from the one book that hardly ever sells."

¯҉¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯҉

*Outside with Hiruzen*

Hiruzen along with the Anbu on watch waited for whatever was going on inside. The Anbu there were dog, weasel, and dragon waiting. Though, very soon Minato came out as Hiruzen looked at Minato with hope in his eyes. However, things never go as planned, they never do.

Just then a cat Anbu with purple hair appeared in front of Hiruzen and Minato. Minato and Hiruzen heard a loud roar, and off in the distance could see nine tails swaying in the air. "Kyuubi." Minato stated as Hiruzen looked in worry as well. "This is a bad time for Kushina to be out of the village! Something must have happened to Mito." Minato looked to Hiruzen, "This isn't good, gather all the troops Hiruzen, we need to stop the Kyuubi! Anbu! Go assist the others!" Minato ordered as weasel, cat, dragon, and dog went to go stop the Kyuubi.

Hiruzen narrowed his eyes, "If Mito-chan is unable, we need to re-seal it into a child. I'll go-."

"No." Hiruzen looked to see Minato state sternly looking at him, "I will not ask a child whom I don't even know to bear such a burden." Minato thought to Kushina's twin sister Mito, named after the late Mito Senju, "I am Hokage, as Hokage I cannot do that to another family nor child. As when I know the son that I have, I believe he could do it." Minato looked onwards knowing what he had to do.

"Wait, let me do it Minato, if you're going to use what I think you'll do. Let me do it, I'm old and Konoha needs a strong leader like you." Hiruzen quickly intervened as he threw his Kage robes off to his battle armor.

Minato smiled as he nodded his head, but before Hiruzen could go into get Minato's son. Minato got behind Hiruzen and knocked him out. Hiruzen fell to the ground as he saw Minato walking back into the secret base, "Thanks Hiruzen, but I cannot ask you to do it to my child. You'll be Hokage again, sorry Hiruzen, but it needs to me."

Minato quickly Hiraishin went back into where Tsunade, Shizune, Biwako, and Jiraiya were. They were completely unaware of what was going on. Tsuande was currently asleep with Shizune doing some normal check ups on Naruto to check for vitals and everything. Tsuande was given a sedative to help her sleep and recover.

Minato walked over and said, "Shizune can you give Naruto to me for a moment." Shizune not seeing Minato's alternative motive, or anything did so. Minato smiled looking down at his son, "Naruto, I know you'll grow big and strong, and you'll do me proud. But I must apologize for what I'm about to do to you. But I believe you can handle it…"

Shizune looked to Minato confused along with Biwako and Jiraiya. "Jiraiya-sensei, Shizune, Biwako, the Kyuubi appeared and is currently attacking the village." Jiraiya's eyes widen, "I plan on sealing the Kyuubi into Naruto, tell Tsuande I'm sorry."

"No! I won't let you do this to Naruto! He can't-!" Shizune tried to argue but Minato looked at her with a very stern look on his face.

"Sorry Shizune, but I must, I cannot ask another family to sacrifice their child. Nor could I ever burden something like this on an orphan. But why do that when I could do it to my son… he and Tsunade may hate me for this. But I have to do it… I must do it, I need you to train and look after Naruto when he grows up. He'll have many enemies… promise me Jiraiya… promise you'll do this for me."

"Wait! No! Minato! Let me do it! You don't need to die to do-."

"No Sensei!" Jiraiya was taken back by Minato's quickly and stern reply, "This is MY son, I'M the Hokage, this is my duty. Minato's face relaxed as he smiled, "I wish I could continue and look after him, but I need to do this. Hiruzen couldn't seal the Kyuubi, he isn't as strong as he uses to. You could Sensei, but we would lose one of our most prominent spy networkers. Hokages can be replaced… people you Sensei can't be, I name Hiruzen as the next acting Hokage again. For what it's worth Shizune… I'm sorry, but I have to do this."

Before Shizune could react Minato disappeared in a flash of yellow, "NO! NARUTO!" Shizune flung senbons in the spot that Minato was in. She was aiming for his legs, "No! Naruto!" Shizune turned around and glared at Jiraiya, "NO! Don't you realize what he's gonna do! He's going to seal that thing into Naruto! Tsuande wouldn't want this!"

Jiraiya bit his lip and he hated it, he knew it too, he knew that Hiruzen couldn't pull such a feat. If he were too, the spy network that Konoha had would go silent. Jiraiya had tears run down his cheeks as Shizune eyes widen and then relaxed. Shizune looked away upset with her own tears in her eyes.

A boy whom she'll see as a little brother will now be forced to have a burden placed on him. Before he could even say yes or no to it.

Jiraiya looked at the Senbon needles that Shizune threw. He walked over and picked them up handing them back to Shizune, "Watch over Tsuande, you too Biwako. I need to go make sure to get my Godson." Jiraiya headed out of the secret base, "Minato… I couldn't have been prouder of who you've become. I just wish… you didn't have to sacrifice yourself, my son I'm so proud of you."

¯҉¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯҉

*Ten Minutes Later*

Minato stood weakly over his son, his son not even being an hour old. Minato felt the pain from the Reaper Death Seal on his stomach. He saw the seal that formed onto Naruto's stomach and disappeared. Minato fell to his knee, after driving off the masked man with two Sharingan eyes. Minato looked over to see Hiruzen and Jiraiya running towards him. Minato smiled, "My son…" Minato looked to Naruto as he fell to the ground, but he reached up and gently grasped his son's tiny hand. Minato lifted himself up, "Behave for you Kaa-san, look after her for me, care for her in my stead. Grow up strong, eat well, bathe, and take care of yourself… my son… Naruto… I love you. And this is… goodbye." Minato conscious slipped as his head hit the ground, but his hand stayed grasping baby Naruto's hand.

Hiruzen and Jiraiya got there as Minato laid there dead, and baby Naruto. Began to cry letting out cries of a fallen soldier, fallen Kage, his father. Jiraiya frowned as he knelt down and gently picked up Naruto. He handed him to Hiruzen, "Truly you were one of the best Shinobi Minato… I promise to look after Naruto and Tsunade for you…"

Hiruzen looked down upset, "As much as I disagree with what you decided on Minato. I will miss you greatly my dear friend. You were true Hokage up until the very end… I will do my best to protect your son and help him grow." Soon Anbu arrived with weasel, dog, and dragon with them. Hiruzen looked to them and stated, "Minato reinstated me as acting Hokage, weasel, dog, and dragon, take Minato's body and prepare it for the funeral. Make sure no one gets near it."

"Hai!" The three walked over and gently picked Minato's body and disappeared into the night. Hiruzen looked down at Naruto and noticed three whisker marks on each cheek.

¯҉¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯҉

*Two Days Later Private Base*

Two nights after the Kyuubi attacked the Hidden Leaf, many mourned the loss of Shinobi and civilians alike. Everyone mourned the loss of the Yodaime Hokage, Minato Namikaze. The story was told that he killed the Kyuubi, and he died in the process of doing so. Earning the ever-lasting respect of the people in Konoha.

A threat to Konoha has ended, but the looming threats continued to linger in the darkness and shadows. Mito's death went unnoticed by the civilians, but not by the people close to Mito. Especially the twin of Mito Uzumaki, Kushina Uzumaki.

But back with the Slug Princess, she begins to awake from her medically induced sleep. Tsuande slowly opened her eyes as she looked around. "My baby… Shizune! Where's my Naruto?"

Just then Shizune came walking into the room with a smile on her face, "Sorry Tsunade-sensei, since you've been getting rest. I for now was bottle feeding him, he's quite the hungry little guy."

Tsunade was soon given to her son as she hugged him. Though, she looked at her son confused, it WAS her son, but something was different. He had three whisker marks on each side of his cheeks, "Okay… these are new? I know I went so sleep, but I swore he didn't have whisker marks on his cheeks when I gave birth to him."

Shizune frowned as Jiraiya, Biwako, and Hiruzen came walking in, "You are right in that sense Tsunade-sensei, he didn't until the Kyuubi attacked a couple nights ago."

Tsunade's eyes widen as she looks around in anger, "WHERE IS MINATO! I'M GONNA KILL HIM! HE DID NOT JUST SEAL THAT THING INTO MY SON!" Just then Naruto began to cry from the sudden screaming. Tsuande immediately reeled it in as she gently touched her son's cheek, "Oh no, not you my dear sweet Naru-chan, Kaa-chan is sorry about that. Kaa-chan didn't mean to wake you." Tsunade kissed his cheek which slowly helped calm Naruto down. Tsuande looked up to Jiraiya, "Where is he Jiraiya? Where is that sorry excuse of a Tou-san and Hokage?!"

"About that Tsunade-Hime…" Tsunade turned to see Jiraiya speaking, but Jiraiya had a downcast look on his face. Jiraiya's eyes were slightly red, and his cheeks were slightly puffy, "He was crying." "Minato… died sealing the Kyuubi into Naruto… he believed that Naruto could handle said burden."

"He also said that he couldn't ask another family to sacrifice their child. Nor could he take some random orphan and do that to him… Minato died doing what he thought was right. He died serving the village." Hiruzen finished as he placed a hand on Jiraiya's shoulder.

Tsuande still was quite angry and could easily kill Minato right now for what he's done. However, she could tell that Jiraiya was taking this really hard. Tsunade knows he's never known his parents, and neither did Minato. So, the two were quite close as if they were father and son. It's clear Jiraiya viewed Minato as such.

Tsunade sighed as she turned to Shizune, "Shizune, am I clear to leave?"

"Yes you are Tsunade-sensei, you should still take it easy. But you recovered quickly from the birthing process." Shizune looked to Tsunade knowing she wanted to begin to pack their things and leave.

Biwako smiled, "I think it's wise to do that Tsunade, as much as I'd love for you to stay. If people were to find out you have a son. He would be vulnerable to assassinations or kidnappings."

"I agree too, besides I can stop by and see my Godson and more too." Jiraiya smiled looking to Tsuande, "That way I can do my part and help look after Naruto and eventually train him."

"Wait… train him! I-I don't know about that Jiraiya… I don't want to raise my son in this village. The fact that he was turned into a Jinchuriki… if they heard about what Naruto was. They'll treat him like garbage or even try to hurt him. I won't let my son be the victim of that! Not only that, but maybe he doesn't want to be a shinobi!" Tsunade argued, knowing what she was saying wasn't going to be true. She just knew, by looking at her boy, that he'd want to be a shinobi. Not only is it in his blood, but now with that Kyuubi in him, he'll have chakra reserves well above normal shinobi.

"Well, if the time comes to that, we'll have to see." Jiraiya gave Tsuande a lighthearted smile, "We'll just have to wait and see what he says. But for now, we need to protect him, that way he can grow up safely."

"I agree, but I'll be doing a lot of traveling… I'll keep my movements sporadic and move around, that way. I can't be tracked if people were to try to look for me." Tsuande looked down at her son and frowned, but she smiled, "I won't let anything come to harm my baby… my son… my Naru-chan."

Hiruzen walked over and placed a hand on Tsunade's shoulder, "You do what you need to Tsuande, look after your son, care for him and more. I can't wait to see him one day once he's older, please take care. I'll make sure the man who manages Minato's money is informed. If you're worried about him leaking information on Naruto's existence. He won't, he's a close friend who manages Sarutobi's finances as well. So, I promise you that funds to help support you and Naruto will continue to be deposited in your account."

"Fine, but no one else besides him and anyone in this room can know of Naruto… less people who know the better." Tsunade closed her eyes and smiled, "I guess this is it then… we'll begin to take our leave."

¯҉¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯҉

*Time Skip 5 Months Later* Naruto 5 Months Old

(A/N: If it looks like I'm skipping around timeline wise a lot I am. I don't know how much you all really care for me going on in super depth of what's going on. Just trying to get to the meat of the story).

Tsunade and Shizune so far, staying in Hashirama's Summer Retreat, haven't had a lot of trouble caring for Naruto. He mostly looked around and things a baby would do. It wasn't hard for them, Tsunade breast fed him, and changed his diapers when needed. Shizune even got to experience what it was like to care for a younger brother. Just say, Naruto was one of the safest, and most pampered baby in the world at that time.

Jiraiya would come in occasionally to check up on the three and give Naruto presents. Of course, Naruto was always glad to see Jiraiya when he came in. Though, whenever he tried to hold Naruto. Naruto would begin crying, swaying his arms into the air while kicking. Which once time Naruto landed a solid strike onto Jiraiya's face.

Which resulted in a blackeye which amused Tsunade and Shizune. That was because Jiraiya had to make a comment about Tsunade's breast looking bigger.

Though this go around Tsunade and Shizune were currently in the living room relaxing. Naruto was on the floor playing with some baby toys. Tsunade was reading one of Jiraiya's stories, not the smut books, but "The Tale of the Utterly Gutsy Shinobi" which she had to admit. Jiraiya was not a bad writer not storyteller either. For a pervert, if he actually got his mind out of the gutter. He could actually make decent living and good series if he tried.

Shizune stood up to go make some tea, "Tsunade-sensei, I'm going to make some tea, you want some?"

Tsunade lowered the book so Shizune could see her eyes, "Sure… but I think some sake would go great with this book."

Shizune looked at her sensei with a frown, "Sensei, how many times do I need to tell you." Tsunade lifted the book over her eyes again, and rolled them, "Besides you're breast-feeding Naruto, alcohol will affect the milk you produce. Do you want Naruto to be alcoholic like you?"

Tsunade began to mumble annoyed from her student's sternness with her. Naruto was currently on the ground as he played with a small gray plush slug that Tsuande gifted to Naruto. Just then there was a rustle as the window to the house opened. Tsunade and Shizune stood on guard as they through senbons at the open window, "AHH! YEOW!"

Tsunade and Shizune frowned recognizing that voice, "Oh it's Jiraiya… a shame, seems like I missed."

Jiraiya stepped in as senbon needles were stuck in his face and torso, "Yeow! Hime! Shizune! You should really watch where you throw those." Jiraiya looked to them with a pained look on his face. He quickly pulled them as out as the young medic nin in training healed the Toad Sage's wounds.

Baby Naruto looked up to see Jiraiya come walking in. Baby Naruto smiled as he clapped his hands, "Hey! How ya doing squirt!" Jiraiya walked over and leaned over patting Naruto on the head, "Man already getting so big! 3 months eh? Well keep this up you'll end up being a real lady killer just like your Tou-san!"

Tsunade crossed her arms over her chest, "Tch, yeah right, over my dead body. Anyways Jiraiya, the hell are you doing here? You normally announce when you're coming."

Jiraiya sighed as he rubbed the back of his head as a serious look came onto his face, "You two are gonna wanna sit down for this, it's a rough one."

Tsuande and Shizune noted that Jiraiya dropped the serious act with them. Jiraiya pulled a scroll out and released the contents from within. A stuff toad plushie that Jiraiya gave to Naruto to which he quickly crawled up to Jiraiya. But before Jiraiya expected him to crawl to get it. Tsunade's and Shizune's eyes widen as Naruto pushed himself off the floor.

"OH KAMI! HIS FIRST STEPS!" Tsunade squealed in delight along with Shizune who also ran up next to her sensei. Jiraiya was smiling brightly as well as Naruto waddled over to him.

Jiraiya knelt on his knee as Naruto walked to him with his hands out. Before the group knew it, Naruto got to Jiraiya with his eyes on the prize, Naruto grabbed the stuff plushie of the toad off Jiraiya. "Great job Naruto! I'm so proud of you!" Jiraiya scooped Naruto as the baby Naruto began to laugh and giggle.

Tsuande and Shizune walked up to the Toad Sage holding the baby Naruto also complimenting Naruto's well-done job. Jiraiya smirked as he said, "Man, I could get use to this, two cute ladies complimenting your amazing achievement Naruto! Of course, it was all done thanks to me." Jiraiya said with a stupid grin on his face to which Tsunade and Shizune glared at the self-proclaimed super pervert.

Just then Naruto cheered out as both his hands raised up into the air, "Yag!" Baby Naruto cheer out, but his fist slammed into Jiraiya's left eye.

"OW!" Jiraiya whined out as his head moved backwards as he stumbled holding the baby Naruto. Jiraiya then covered his right hand with his left eye since he was holding Naruto. Jiraiya felt a bruise on his face, "Dammit brat, I give ya a new and cool present! Help you take your first step! This is how you reward me! Kami damn that hurt!"

"Jiraiya language please! Naruto is at that age that he can begin to-." Tsunade began to scold the said pervert until she was cut off.

"Dam!" Baby Naruto cheered out to which Jiraiya moved his head to avoid being hit in the face again. Everyone was beginning to learn that Naruto, even as a baby, had a damn good punch.

However, Jiraiya began to sweat and look worried as Tsunade and Shizune glared at the Toad Sage. Shizune walked up and slammed her elbow into his stomach knocking the wind out of him. "OPHM!" Tsuande took Naruto from Jiraiya's arms with a continued glare.

"You teach him another word like that Jiraiya, I'll rearrange your vocal cords to make you sound like you smoke five packs a day!" Tsunade growled out to which Jiraiya paled in worry. Tsuande sighed with a growl on her face, "Anyways, the he-… heck did you come here for." Tsuande almost swore herself, she really needs to rein that in.

Jiraiya not gently nursing the hit on his stomach took a moment to catch his breath. *Wheez* "Jeez, Shizune right in the sternum too… anyways." Jiraiya coughed into his hand, "There's an unknown group that's been rising up. Not well known, but you can't miss their appearance. They're known as the Akatsuki, they wear straw hats with small ornamental torques and tassels hanging down over their faces. They wear black cloaks with red cloud son it, they always are in pairs of two. They're made up of missing nuke-nins all being S-Class."

Tsunade's eyes widen in surprise along with Shizune, "That's strange, why would they be together?"

"I don't know why either… but it's for them to capture… well the Bijuus." Jiraiya looked to Naruto to which Shizune's and Tsunade's eyes widen even more. Jiraiya could even feel Tsunade's mother aura coming to the surface.

"Shizune, go put Naruto to sleep, we need to talk more." Tsuande looked to Jiraiya with a serious look on her face. Tsuande handed Naruto to Shizune to which Shizune hurriedly did so with her own worried look on her face.

The two walked over to the couch to sit and talk, "Okay first off… what the hell do they need the Bijuus for?!" Tsunade looked to make sure Naruto was in the other room with Shizune before swearing.

"I don't know, but that's the information I've collected so far. They've attempted to capture some of them but failed. So, for now it seems they've been taking on missions as of late. Just to make some money, but if this group is left unchecked." Jiraiya looked to Tsunade and then out the window, "They could become a problem later on."

Tsuande bit her lip angrily, "Damn Minato! Now my baby boy is a target! Even more so now that he is my son too! Grrr! Dammit all to hell!" Tsuande slammed her fist into the arm of the couch, luckily not breaking it.

"I know you're worried Hime, but it brings more issues to the surface. We have to train Naruto now… we got time, and they don't know he exists currently. We need to train him, he'll become a strong and powerful Shinobi with our guidance. Not only that, he has some of the strongest shinobi blood flowing through his veins. We just need to train him to prepare him for what inevitably comes."

Shizune came walking back into the room as she sat down next to Tsunade. "I know it now… tch… just would have liked to have Naruto live a normal childhood a bit longer."

Jiraiya smiled as he turned to his head towards the door where Naruto was sleeping, "The squirt has some time, maybe around age six or so we can slowly begin training him. By the time he is 12 he should attend Konoha to become a genin there."

Shizune, even though she hated this, understood why Naruto has to go through this training. Before Tsunade could speak up Shizune did, "If that's what we need to do, then I'll also help train him. If those bastards think, they can lay a single hair on my Otouto's head. They got another thing coming!" Shizune looked at the ground with an angry look on her face.

"You got that right Shizune… we'll make sure Naruto gets strong. As much as I wish he couldn't be a shinobi and could live a simple normal life. I guess not all wishes are meant to be either… but I know what I can do." Tsunade turned her hand so the palmed face her. She then clenched her hand tightly, "I'll never let anyone, or anything ever take away something precious and important to me. That little bundle of joy, that ray of sunshine… he's been helping go through every day. Make waking up everyday worth it… if they try to come for him! I'll hang them by their entrails! If it means I need to put Naruto through evasion training… then so be it."

Tsunade had a fire light in her eyes, Shizune and Jiraiya gulped for poor Naruto. It seems his training won't be easy, it's not surprising that Tsuande wants to put him through her dodge training.

*Later that Night*

Tsunade slowly opened her eyes and let a yawn out. She was in her PJs and had to get up to use the restroom. She went over and did what she needed to do and got out. She then made he way towards Naruto's room to find him in the crib. She smiled looking down at him peacefully sleeping, but nonetheless it was time for him to eat. Tsunade lifted her baby boy from the crib and she grabbed the hem of her PJ top.

Just then, through the doorway came in Shizune, "Sorry Tsunade-sensei, I woke up to use the restroom too. I checked on Naruto and had to change his diaper."

Tsunade turned to Shizune shocked, "Wait… if Naruto is in Shizune's arms… then who was…" Tsunade looked down to find a log in her arms. She then looked over to see a baby Naruto crawling towards the window of the room. "Dammit! Of course, Shizune just HAD to get in my way! Dammit! That lucky brat gets all the good treatment!" Just then Jiraiya felt a linger angry presence above him. He looked up to see Tsunade with red glowing eyes as she cracked her knuckles. Jiraiya placed his hand on his lip and said, "Mama?"

Before Jiraiya knew it a fist came flying at his face.

*Time Skip 7 Months and Five Years* Naruto's Age: 6 Years Old *Fire Capital* October 10th

Naruto came running into the family room where Tsunade and Shizune were sitting in and chatting. "Kaa-chan! Nee-chan! Guess what I learned from Uncle Jiraiya!" Naruto made a hand seal and immediately a poof appeared next to him. "Ta Da!" Both Narutos said unison, and Naruto didn't even seem to be a tired whatsoever.

Tsunade and Shizune were very impressed, "Wait… that's not just a clone! That's a shadow clone!" Shizune said in shock.

"Yeah isn't it cool! But Jiraiya said to be careful how many I make because they take up a lot of chak… chakura…" Naruto was trying to remember how to say it, "Oh! Chakra!"

Tsunade smiled as she stood up walked over to Naruto, "That's impressive Naru-chan, so proud of you, say since it's your birthday today. Why don't we go to a ramen stand for lunch today?"

"YEAH! ALRIGHT! RAMEN!" Naruto cheered along with the clone as the two jumped for joy.

"Come on, dismiss the clone so we can go eat. Besides, I heard Jiraiya was paying today." Tsunade added to which Naruto jumped excitedly as she and Shizune walked outside. Of course, Tsunade and Shizune were in transformations.

The three went out to get some lunch, where they met up with Jiraiya who paid for them. The four spent the rest of the afternoon hanging out and Naruto getting to play. They also recently adopted a pet pig named Tonton, which Shizune named. Naruto also got to play with Katsuyu along with toad that Jiraiya summoned for Naruto play with.

Eventually with the end of the day near Tsuande looked to her son, "Did you enjoy your day birthday boy?"

"Sure, I did Kaa-chan! It was amazing!" Naruto held up a present in his hands, "Even with Uncle Jiraiya had to leave afterwards he gave me this cool present, I can't wait to see what it is."

"Oh, good, open it why don't you." Tsunade sat down on the couch, meanwhile Shizune was currently playing with Tonton. Tsuande then looked over to "The Tale of the Utterly Gutsy Shinobi" and began to read it.

Naruto opened the present Jiraiya gave him and said, "Oh… Jiraiya gave me a book? It looks funny…"

Tsunade just mumbled, "Mmhmm just try to read it, it's good practice for ya." Tsuande answered not looking away from her book, "What do you know, the idiot actually gave him something good for once."

Naruto sat there and began to read the book as he flipped to the first page, "What is this? What is this wording… this is going to be hard."

¯҉¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯҉

*With Jiraiya*

Jiraiya met with a man who was wearing a hoodie in a alley. "So, do you have it?" The hooded man asked Jiraiya.

"Sure do, here ya go." Jiraiya gave the man a wrapped-up book, and the hooded man gave Jiraiya photos. Jiraiya smirked as he looked at the pictures, "Ahaha! Alright! Perfect beauties to use in my next book!"

"Oi, the hell is this?!" The hooded man looked to Jiraiya with angry look on his face.

Jiraiya looked to the man as he held up a book, 'The Tale of the Utterly Gusty Shinobi.' "Wait… a second… I thought I gave that book to my godson… Naruto. Wait a second… if you have that. Then that MEANS! OH SHIT!" Jiraiya took off like a bat out of hell, Jiraiya ran so fast, it would have put Might Guy to shame.

¯҉¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.•´¯҉

*With Naruto*

Naruto was having a really hard time with the book, "Uhhh Kaa-chan? I need some help with these words…"

Tsunade sighed as she placed her book down, "Alright then, read it to me and sound the words out best you can for me. I'll do my best to help you."

"Okay then." Naruto began to read from the top of the page, "Chapter 1: Blo-o-o-s-soms and Begin-ings?"

"Beginnings." Tsunade corrected, now Shizune was listening in too.

"Beginnings. K-kka who?" Naruto looked at the book confused.

Tsunade just sighed, "Bring it here Naruto, let me read it out loud for you." Once the book was given to her, Naruto got up next to her. He then read over her shoulder as Tsuande continued for him, "Kazuki strolled into the quaint village of Hanamura, the warm spring breeze ruffling his hair. Cherry blossoms lined the streets, their petals creating a soft pink carpet. He had heard tales of the village's beauty, but the reality exceeded his expectations.

Kazuki: "This place is a paradise," he muttered to himself, adjusting his satchel. "Now, to find a place to stay." His wanderings led him to a small library, its doors wide open. Inside, he spotted a beautiful woman organizing books. She had long, dark hair and an air of quiet determination.

Kazuki: "Excuse me," he called out, stepping inside. "I'm new in town and was wondering if you could point me to an inn?"

Aiko turned, startled. She knocked over a stack of books, which Kazuki deftly caught before they hit the ground. Aiko: "Oh! Thank you. You have quick reflexes."

Kazuki: "Years of practice. I'm Kazuki, by the way."

Aiko: "Aiko. Nice to meet you. The inn is just down the street, next to the teahouse."

Kazuki: "Thanks, Aiko. Maybe I'll see you around."

As Kazuki left, Aiko watched him go, a small smile playing on her lips. A few days later, Kazuki found himself in trouble. He had intervened when a group of thugs were harassing a villager, and now they were after him. He ran through the market, weaving between stalls, when Aiko appeared, seemingly out of nowhere.

Aiko: "This way!" she shouted, pulling him into a narrow alley.

Kazuki: "Aiko? What are you doing here?"

Aiko: "Saving you, apparently."

They ducked into a hidden courtyard, and Aiko faced the thugs with surprising confidence.

Thug Leader: "Hand him over, girl, and we won't hurt you."

Aiko: "Leave now, and I won't hurt you."

The thugs laughed, but their laughter turned to shock as Aiko swiftly incapacitated them with precise martial arts moves.

Kazuki: "Whoa... remind me not to get on your bad side."

Aiko: "There's a lot you don't know about me, Kazuki."

Kazuki: "I'd like to change that."

The village festival was in full swing. Lanterns illuminated the streets, and the air was filled with laughter and music. Kazuki found Aiko near a cherry blossom tree, her face lit by the lanterns' soft glow.

Kazuki: "You look beautiful tonight."

Aiko: "Thank you, Kazuki. It's a lovely festival."

They wandered the festival together, sharing food and laughter. Under the cherry blossoms, they paused, and Kazuki took Aiko's hand.

Kazuki: "There's something I need to tell you. I—"

Suddenly, the peaceful night shattered as masked assailants attacked. Aiko's secret was revealed as she defended herself and Kazuki with skill and precision.

Kazuki: "Aiko, who are these people?"

Aiko: "I'll explain later. For now, we fight."

Together, they fended off the attackers, their movements synchronized as if they had trained together for years.

After the attack, Aiko knew she couldn't hide her past any longer. She led Kazuki, Ryuji, and Hana to Master Kenji, an eccentric but wise mentor living on the outskirts of the village.

Master Kenji: "Ah, Aiko. I see you've brought friends."

Kazuki: "Master Kenji, I presume?"

Master Kenji: "Indeed. Sit, all of you. We have much to discuss."

As they sat around a small fire, Aiko explained her heritage and the danger she faced. Kazuki listened intently, his admiration for Aiko growing with each word.

Kazuki: "We'll help you, Aiko. Whatever it takes."

Aiko: "Thank you, Kazuki."

Master Kenji: "The path ahead is fraught with peril, but together, you may overcome it."

The climactic battle took place in a secluded forest. Aiko's pursuers had tracked them down, and now they faced off in a fierce confrontation.

Kazuki: "Stay close, Aiko."

Aiko: "I can handle myself, Kazuki. But thank you."

They fought side by side, their bond strengthening with each moment. When the last of the attackers fell, Kazuki turned to Aiko, his eyes filled with emotion.

Kazuki: "Aiko, I've fallen in love with you."

Aiko: "Kazuki… I love you too."

Nearby, Ryuji and Hana, who had been supporting them from the sidelines, shared a tender moment of their own.

Ryuji: "Hana, I think I've loved you from the moment we met."

Hana: "Took you long enough to say it, Ryuji."

Tsunade then stopped as she began to flip through some more pages. Also, while placing a hand over Naruto's eyes, "Hey! Kaa-chan! I can't see the book!" Tsunade ignored her son's plea to see the book. It wasn't long before she found the nude scenes of the two main characters together. Tsunade slammed the book shut to find the title of the book.

"I'm going to kill him… I think I'm seriously going to kill him this time!" Tsunade shouted as she stood up and tossed the book to Shizune.

Shizune caught the book and read the front before glaring at it too. Just then the door to the house slammed open, "NARUTO WHATEVE YOU DO DON'T OPEN THAT… Uh Oh… uh."

Tsunade smiled as she looked to Jiraiya with a sickening sweet smile on her face, "Well, look who it is, the very person I was looking for!" Tsunade walked up and disappeared and reappeared behind Jiraiya.

"WOAH! THAT WAS SO COOL KAA-CHAN! IS THAT A NEW JUTSU! CAN I LEARN IT!" Naruto jumped up and down wanting to learn whatever that technique was!

Tsunade smiled and Jiraiya said, "Oh! Of course, Naruto! I'd be so happy to teach that jutsu! Come outside and we can-!" An iron hand grip was placed on his shoulders.

"Maybe another time Jiraiya… Naruto don't worry I can teach it to you better than this pervert can." Tsunade glared at Jiraiya as her eyes had a burning fire appear in place of her pupils, "Shizune… why don't you have Naruto begin to work on some more chakra control exercises… start with the leaf control exercise."

Shizune went over and scooped up Naruto and Tonton, "Make sure to save some of him for me Tsunade-sensei…"

"Don't worry… I will, or maybe I can be a bit clumsy sometimes. I'll do my best, but no promises. Now Jiraiya… dear… sweetie… honey…" Jiraiya began to sweat when Tsunade said these things, "I think we should have a Good! Long! Talk in your choices of gifts to my Naru-chan!" Tsunade placed both hands together in a clapping motion and by her cheek, "Why don't we take this into my room!"

Jiraiya gulped even harder, "Wait! Naruto! NARUTO! TAKE ME WITH PLEASE! NARUTO!" Jiraiya tried to leave but was tripped to the ground. Tsunade grabbed him by the ankle and began to drag him inside. Jiraiya tried to stop himself from bring dragged away, and even dug his nails into the floorboards. However, it was for naught as his nails peeled away the wood as Tsuande dragged him into her room.

Let's just simply understand, that Jiraiya saw Kami that day. Yet he was still rejected from actually dying because he was resuscitated. But that was only because Tsunade was acting as a human defibrillator.

A/N: Phew! Long chapter, hope you all liked that. Now as for something else I literally thought WHILE I was making this story. Not only can you all assume Naruto will have the Wood Release, which I think many of you do. But I've come up with a completely brand new Kekkai Genkai! I'm SO PROUD OF MYSELF FOR COMING UP WITH IT! UGH! DAMMIT I WANT TO REVEAL WHAT IT IS SO MUCH!

BUT! If I were to do that, I'd ruin all the fun of you all need to read to find out. Ahahaha, I'm so evil to do that to you all.

Now with that stated, if you're all curious on who's the last two pairings that Naruto will be with. It's quite simple, we already have Temari, Ino, and Yugito Nii. Now as for the other two, you may take a guess from my hints here.

The first riddle:

In the shadows of the village's might,

A fierce protector shines so bright.

With strength and grace, she stands tall,

Beside a hero, ready to brawl.

Her eyes, a crimson gleam,

Reveal a power like a dream.

A bond unbroken, their spirits soar,

Two hearts connected, forevermore.

Through trials faced and battles won,

Together they rise, their fates as one.

Who is this girl, fierce and true,

Whose love for Naruto is bold and new?

Second Riddle:

In the hidden snow where shadows loom,

She wields her blade amidst the gloom.

A student of Zabuza, her skills refined,

In icy battles, her prowess aligned.

From realms of devils, she takes her flight,

A lady of might, cloaked in night.

In Naruto's world, her path unfurls,

A tale of strength in swirling whirls.

With icy stare and blade of steel,

Her presence felt, her fate concealed.

Who is this woman, with secrets in her glance,

Whose journey intertwines with Naruto's dance?

Now, hope those riddles aren't too hard, but the second one might be. If you're asking if it's Haku no its not, because Haku IS being replaced by someone else. Now you may when the next installment might be. Honestly, who knows, reason why I say that, simply because it's not my main focus. I just want to see how it takes off. This story will finish, and so will Sitri Heir along with Fairy Tail's First Sage.

Sorry if there are some grammar and spelling errors, I'll go back and fix them. I kinda of stayed up late writing this and trying to review it! I really wanna get it out just to see what some of you think! With that said, Sage of Prophecy OUT! Ja Ne!
