After he left hokage office, he teleported in the head of fourth's head and then start walking towards his home. After 20 minute of walk he come in front of a rustic, wooden gate, adorned with the Uzumaki clan crest, marked the entrance to the compound. The gate was flanked by two stone lanterns, their soft, golden light casting a warm glow over the surrounding area. A winding path, lined with carefully manicured bushes and cherry blossom trees, led visitors to the main house.
The main house, with its traditional Japanese architecture, was a marvel of simplicity and elegance. The roof, tiled with curved, dark gray tiles, was adorned with a delicate, golden finial, shaped like a spiral, the Uzumaki clan symbol.

He clapped and his rinnegan glowed for moment and a Japanese style gate appear and he entered the gate. He was in a dimly lit chamber with a high, vaulted ceiling that seems to disappear into the shadows. The air is thick with the scent of old parchment, smoke, and the faint hint of ozone, reminiscent of the aftermath of a fierce battle.

As he sat on the throne his mind reflected to the past he think of that day where this thing started.
FLASHBACK-
7 YEARS AGO-
Naruto Uzumaki walked through the forest, he was six years old his sister told him collect some herb from forest for a academy project The sun was setting, casting a warm orange glow over the trees, and the air was filled with the sweet scent of blooming flowers. Naruto breathed in deeply, feeling at peace in the natural surroundings.
As he turned a corner, he overheard a hushed conversation between several individuals. They were speaking in hushed tones, but Naruto's keen ears picked up on the words "kidnap" and "uzumaki". His eyes narrowed, and he crept closer, trying not to make a sound. He didn't recognized the symbol on their mask- ne (root) it was the mark of the , a group loyal to only danzo shimura but( he didn't know) for the Hidden Leaf Village.
"...and once we take out the akane uzumaki, the village will be ours for the taking," one of them said, a sneer in their voice. "danzo sama will manuplate the weapon to his will and become hokage of konoha."
Naruto's anger flared, and he prepared to strike. He had always been fiercely loyal to his village, and the thought of anyone threatening its safety was unbearable. But before he could attack, one of the figures noticed him and alerted the others. They quickly turned on Naruto, drawing their weapons.
"You're a bit too curious for your own good, ninja," one of them sneered, charging towards Naruto. "You're going to pay for sticking your nose in where it doesn't belong."
After seeing them naruto tries to run and they chase after 30 minuts run he entered The forty-fourth training area of Konohagakure no Sato was a place that frightened even high-rank shinobi. The forest was extremely misleading and full of unique creatures. A rumor ran around the ranks of the shinobi of Konoha that the forest hid something that could lead to the end of the hidden villages and therefore Hashirama Senju had isolated part of the forest with the help of the Uzumaki clan using several seals that not even the current Hokage could break. He was actually waking up in a clearing alone. His orange and blue striking jacket was completely destroyed and what covered him was only his pants that were torn and a black shirt with the red swirl symbol of the Uzumaki clan, not that Naruto knew that little detail at the moment. If Naruto was anyone else, he would have died from the wounds he received fighting against root members or the fall of several meters he suffered but he was from the Uzumaki Clan, a clan famous for their long vitality and regeneration and he was also the jinchuriki.
"Where's the inu neesan ? What about jiji's ambu?" He wondered if Uzumaki got up and walked without a specific direction in an attempt to find his companions. "Did they gone? No... they can come here anytime... I'm very hungry."
The faith in his teammates that Naruto had made the thought that they had abandoned him to be something incomprehensible. In his daydreams trying to understand what had happened and the immense hunger that resulted from using too much of his chakra to recover, Naruto did not notice the sealed papers in the trees that he passed, papers that seemed to have been there for years.
"Oh, how I wanted a big bowl of Ramen!" Exclaimed the Uzumaki exasperated, not realizing that he had inadvertently crossed a barrier that no one passed for centuries.
If it was another shinobi, the barrier would probably have prevented him from pursuing, but that particular barrier had been made jointly by Shodaime Hokage and the leader of the Uzumaki clan. When the barrier had been made, the Shodaime had taken precautions that only one chakra equal to his was accepted within the barrier, however, the Shodaime chakra was the same chakra that Hagoromo's youngest son, Ashura Öotsutsuki possessed, since the man was his reincarnation and since Naruto was another cycle of reincarnation of Ashura, the barrier accepted his chakra as if it were the one of the own Hashirama.
"Wow, that's pretty big roots dattebayo!" exclaimed Naruto, seeing roots as large as his apartment around him. "Hm, if that's the roots of this tree, how should the size of the fruit be?" Naruto then got lost in reveries thinking of a giant fruit he could devour.
Soon the Uzumaki arrived in the center of the crater where the tree was and without even realizing it stayed in the same place where a thousand years ago Kaguya Öotsutsuki had proved of the forbidden fruit of Shinju.
A few moments later the body of the naruto was on the ground and the blood was flowing to the ground of the forest of death. unaware the fact that blood was the necessary nutrients for shinju tree needed to finally create a new fruit.
At the same instant a sphere, the same size as an apple, so bright that Naruto for an instant thought he might go blind, came down from the tree branches and stopped in front of the Uzumaki.
What is it? It's so brilliant ... Why do I feel so tempted to eat?
The blonde looked closely at the bright fruit floating in front of him, he felt hypnotized. Without much thought of what he was doing, Uzumaki took the fruit in his hands and bit, enveloped by a silver glow soon after. So after a millennium, Uzumaki Naruto was the second person to taste the forbidden fruit of the Shinju sacred tree. The moment Uzumaki Naruto ate Shinju's fruit, the thick roots of the tree completely enveloped the boy's body forming a cocoon and in the cracks between the roots of this cocoon it could be seen three different chakras mingling, one silver like moonlight, one red as blood and one blue as the sky.
Inside Naruto's body, a nine-tailed fox stared in despair as the sewage in which it had been imprisoned for twelve years was filled with the same roots that formed the cocoon in Uzumaki's body.
Scum-bag what did you do? And what is this feeling? The kitsune wondered when started to feeling something he hadn't felt in a while, fear. The bijuu tried to release his chakra to combat the invading chakra, but the seal that had been placed on his jinchuuriki early intercepted his efforts.
The fox only had time to widen his eyes before the roots entered the bars of the cage that held him and enveloped his body just as they had with their host.
He tried materializing his favourite weapon. But it didn't form. Just a small piece of thick red chakra stick formed in his hand instead of his majestic rod and hook. Though he had to adjust with this and he prepared for the fight.
Deep inside Naruto's Soul
'What is this disturbance? Did something happen?' A lone figure thought as he tried to get a good grasp of what was going on. He is a tall man with a kind face and a left bang hanging to the side of his face.
As he sat in a dark room, his other features remained hidden from view. Being the master of nature energy, he spread his senses across Naruto's body, bypassing all seals
He sensed a disturbance to be a small In naruto's body. He can't go any deeper than just a few blue lines which confuse second.
Though he is a soul using Naruto's body as a host, he is not an ordinary one. He is Ashura Ōtsutsuki, the second son of Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki, the sage of Six Paths. The Father of modern-day Shinobi and Ninshu.
Ashura was with Naruto from the moment he was born nearly 13 years ago and the bond they share is deeper than what Naruto shares with Kyuubi, one of Ashura's brother
Though Ashura was in Naruto, he never tried to actively influence the Uzumaki as Ashura believed in the freedom of everyone and everything. He only tried helping Naruto when he was in deep deep depression or on the verge of accepting defeat. They are part of their shared traits after all.
Even if he wants to, he can't influence Naruto as the addition of his father's chakra is needed to bring his chakra out as it is very deep in Naruto's soul. But just being in Naruto, he can't influenced Naruto by having a very strong and durable body, chakra and passive healing ability.
Ashura followed the blue lines, they led him to Naruto's mindscape, the level where the Kyuubi is sealed in Naruto.
he saw kyubbi fighting some strange tree roots. After some time, he thought that he had some sage of six path chakra left inside him his give him that time should use it. So he concentrate in his six path chakrato summon hagoromo's consciousness, after some time he successfully summon his father and explained everything to him.
After listening hagoromo think-
It was good that the tree was not too big, otherwise the world would not have been saved because it sucked all of its chakra.
hagoromo lifted his staff with flare of his chakra he enter naruto's mindscape and with powers of his rinnegan he stop the tree roots for sometime. He then summon naruto and ashura to the mindscape.
Suddenly find himself in a strange place, It was dark room flled with water to his ankle length, look like sewer. Then he saw three figure first one was
Hagoromo Otsutsuki a tall, imposing figure with a strong and wise presence. He has a distinctive appearance that reflects his incredible power and wisdom. Here are some key features of extremely tall, with a muscular build that reflects his incredible physical strength.
He has long, flowing white hair that falls down his back like a river of snow. His hair is often depicted as being wild and unkempt, giving him a slightly rugged appearance.
Hagoromo's eyes are said to be incredibly powerful, with the ability to see through time and space. They are depicted as being a deep, piercing purple with 3 rings that seems to bore into the souls of those he looks at.
Hagoromo's face is strong and chiseled, with high cheekbones and a sharp jawline. He has a small nose and a mouth that is set in a firm, determined is wearing a simple, yet elegant white robe that reflects his connection to the spiritual realm. The robe is often adorned with intricate. And the second one was Ashura Otsutsuki is a tall, muscular figure with long, flowing black hair and black eyes. He wears a white robe or shirt and often wields a chakra-infused sword. His appearance is often contrasted with his brother, Indra, who has a more refined and noble look. Ashura's expression is usually stern and determined, reflecting his strong sense of justice and compassion. And third one was a giant fox with nine tailswho is struggling to some tree roots, then he realised it was kyubbi, but yondaime killed kyubbi 6 years ago that's means, he was also dead. He panicked and start thinking if he is dead how he can save his sister and how can he become hokage.
Sensing his thoughts hagoromo called- don't panic my child, you are not dead, you are still alive. Then he tell him what happen 6 years ago, to birth of both to how an uchiha extract kyubbi from his mother to his father sealing of half of kyubbi to both twins. Then he realised why everyone hate them or hokage jiji was very protective for them.
HAGOROMO-NARUTO, listen to me the tree where you ate that fruit is called shinju tree and its only purpose was absorb all chakra from earth and cultivate a chakra fruit which you ate, it contain every person's chakra, genetic data and memory and experience of who walk on earth this one thousand years, so you get powers of greater then mine.
NARUTO- that I understand but who are you?
HAGOROMO-oh, my apologies my name is hagoromo otsutsuki people called sage of the six path and he is ashura otsutsuki my youngest son right there this fluffy fox was kurama. My eldest on bijju's side whom I created by distributing jubbi's chakra.
NARUTO- ok, I undetrstand everything but how are you here. After that ashura explained him about how naruto was ashura's reincarnation and his rivalery with his big brother and this cycle off reincarnation. Then he asked to naruto that now he knows everything what naruto do next.
after some thinking he replied- after saving my sister from that goons, a I will create a world true peace, a world where no childrens hated and seal a bijju inside a kid. Just as he said he looked at the three and they shocked by his words and his eye because it is not any longer cerulean blue but dark red three magatama on them.
after listing and seeing that was slowly adapting to his powers hagoromo tell him about kaguya and give him sun and moon seal some of his chakra which he planned to give him on a later date. After that he told kurama that it has to absorb this shinju tree and become new jubbi other after fruit's gone it convert to jubbi and destry planet for recovery of his chakra. Hagoromo then flick his finger and two chakra orb appear in his hand one yellow and other one was red and give them to naruto and explained that it was his parent's chakra which can tak with power of his rinnegan he unlock the seal and help kurama to absorb the tree. After absorbing kurama become some more feet taller and dark red stripes appear on his body and his eye change from black slitted to red with 3 rings with 9 magatama on them and a third eye appear on his forehead which look like a byakugan.
after seeing this hagoromo decide to return pure land but unfotunatly ashura can't go to pure lands right now because naruto was his reincarnation and until this cycle of reincarnation didn't end he can't go to pure he return inside naruto's soul.
after sometime naruto awaken his eyes and saw that his attire was changed so he first change his attire to back what he wore previously. Then he realised he can everyone in this world like all five on there kage office, all other jinchuriki's location and people on moon.
then he focused his senses to those root member who are still trying to search him.
then he realised all the trees of forest are like part of his body, so he focused tree to those four root member and bury them alive. After everything he decide to return home and think about this whole fiasco next day and never this incident anyone.
