===July 15, 10:31 AM, Hokage Tower===
Tsume shoved Hiruzen back into his chair with a fierce scowl. "Hiruzen! You have a lot of explaining to do and you can start by telling me why you lied to everyone about Naruto being Kushina's child and that his surname was to honor her memory!" Tsume exclaimed fiercely, took a breath then slammed her fist on top of his desk sending what little paperwork that was on the desk to the floor. "Because of you and your stupidity Naruto had to live a life of scorn and misery due to your inability to help him! All you had to do was to allow one of us to adopt Naruto, but you let the civilian Council reject everyone's requests!"
Hiruzen visibly sagged as Tsume gave him reminders of the worst mistakes he'd ever made in his long life. He slowly reached under his desk, pulled out a small bottle of sake and 2 cups to ease the memories of Naruto's many hospital visits, several of which would be life threatening to almost anyone else. He filled both, sat down the bottle and began sipping from one of them... but at the moment he didn't know which was worse, the verbal beating he just took or what she would of done if she had attacked.
Tsume, seeing the effect her words were having, sat in one of the 2 seat in front of the desk, took the other cup and began sipping it.
After a few minutes of silence, both occupants in the room put down their cups. Now placated by a small margin, Hiruzen began to explain his reasoning behind hiding Naruto's true heritage from everyone in the village. "After the Third Shinobi War, Minato had gained many enemies, especially in Iwa. Knowing that there would be thousands of shinobi out for Naruto's blood, I believed that the best course of action was to hide his heritage from everyone to prevent any spies from reporting Naruto to any village."
After the explanation, Tsume stared at Hiruzen skeptically, not completely buying his explanation. Seeing this, Hiruzen explained to her another reason he believed that it was necessary to hide Naruto's heritage. "Tsume I would like to say I'm sorry that I lied, I know how much you and Kushina cared for each other, after the Kyuubi's attack I did not originally want to do it. The villagers were calling for his blood so I made a decision to hide his heritage, not out of spite, but for his own well being. I didn't want him to grow up in the shadow of his Father, it would not matter what he did he would always be in his shadow. I didn't want him to grow up with the arrogance some people can get seeing that just because his Father was the Hokage he would have believed that he should be given anything and everything just because of who his Father was."
Hiruzen emptied his cup, took a breath and let it out. "I made that mistake with my son and you know this is true. Asuma suffered from this and had a big falling out with me and I managed to get my relationship with him back several weeks after he came back from his Fire Guardian duties. That is the main reason I did not tell Naruto about the stealing I did not want him to hate his Father even if he didn't know who he was. My plan was to reveal Naruto's Mother's heritage to him once he made Chuunin and his Father's at Jonin. But think of the bright side, you and the others have been a part of Naruto's life since he was very young and helped him grow into a fine young man."
Standing up she looked at him. "You still should have told us, we could have protected him a lot easier and I don't care what you say, when he gets back I'm telling him about his Mother... I will also be informing the others about this as well." With that Tsume put the empty cup on the table and walked out of the office.
Hiruzen looked at the picture of 4th Hokage who he could swear is glaring at him, looking down at the desk all he could do is say. "I'm so sorry Minato, I should have done more to protected him."
===10:56 AM, Ichiraku Ramen===
When Tsume got near the Ramen stand, she heard the excited and cheerful voice of Noriko exuberantly telling the story of how she met her new family to the 2 other customers, who smiled at the cute half-blood Inuzuka.
After Tsume took the only empty seat next to Hana, she noticed the Heirs and Heiress of the Ino-Shika-Cho and decide to arrange a meeting with their parents to tell them of the new development.
"Team Ten!" Tsume yelled, though she knew she didn't need to.
"Yes, Tsume-san?" Team Ten replied simultaneously.
"I need you to tell your parents to be at the Inuzuka Compound at noon tomorrow, if they ask why tell them it's about the Crimson Maelstrom."
Ino, Shikamaru, and Choji nodded, though slightly confused about the reason, then left with their ramen in take-out boxes.
Seeing the gigantic stack of ramen bowls and the still eating Noriko, Tsume believed that Noriko loved Ramen as much Naruto did, and that was no small feat.
"So Noriko-chan, do like your ramen?" Tsume asked gently.
Noriko, who just noticed her Mother's presence turned her head and replied exuberantly. "I do! This ramen is the AWESOMEST food in the whole world! I think I could break Naruto-niisan's record!"
After everyone laughed at the thought of the tiny Noriko eating up 30 bowls in 20 minutes, including Ayame and Teuchi, Tsume decided to have some as well since she was pretty hungry.
===11:46 AM, North-West Konoha===
After having a big meal at the restaurant the new family made their way toward the clan compound, as Noriko is walking next to Hana with a sad frown on her face, Hana noticed and rubbed her head. "Don't worry about it, you can try again next time."
Noriko looks up at her. "But Nee-san I really wanted to beat him."
"Don't worry, you're very young and Naruto has just been eating ramen for years, maybe when he gets back he can help you train."
Hana looks to her right. "Mom, why do you want their parents to come over tomorrow, and who or what is the Crimson Maelstrom?"
Tsume looks at Hana. "Do you remember my friend I had when you were very young, the one with flaming red hair?"
Hana searches her memories for a moment. "I think so, wasn't her name Kushina?"
Tsume nods her head. "Yes, but she was also your Godmother and one of the only true friends I ever had, we were blood sisters. I was told the day the nine-tails attacked that she and her son died in the attack, but that was a lie... her son did survive the attack."
"That's great mom, so who is it? We're going to have to invite him over to have dinner sometime so we can meet him." Hana said.
"You've already met him." Tsume said with tears running down her cheeks. "Her son is Naruto." Tsume saw the shock on their faces. "I'm telling you this once, when he gets back a lot of things are going to change, now let's hurry up and get home, we have a lot to talk about and it's going to be a long month."
===July 18, 6:03 PM, Wave Country, Mayuri's Bunker===
It's been 3 days since Naruto began his training and in that time he's pushed his Shadow Clones to the Limits by learning all the jutsu he can. The one thing his parents told him to focus on was chakra control, one of the first things he decided to learn was water walking, along with numerous other chakra control exercises to increase his skill. It was late in the afternoon, he'd just finished his Taijutsu training with Yoruichi and is sitting in front of the main computer getting ready to start the next phase of his training. "Ok Mayuri I'm ready to start my soul reaper training, the first thing I need is someone who can teach me how to use my new zanpakuto as it takes the form of butterfly swords, so I need a specialist in twin swords. I'm also going to want someone to teach me how to use Kido and Hado."
Several files pop up on the main screen, Mayuri begins giving Naruto the information. "Very well. I believe these individuals can help you since you have twins zanpakuto. These two will be the best suited to help you train."
Naruto opens both files and showing all the information. "Tell me what you know about these two please."
"Very well. The first on the list is the Captain of squad 13, Jushiro Ukitake, he is both strong and intelligent, he has always considered his squad as his family and has always cared about the well-being of his people. The second individual is the Captain of squad 8, Shunsui Kyoraku, and like Jushiro he's considered one of the strongest of the Captains. The only down side to him is he is lazy, likes to drink sake and hit on anything in a skirt, but do not let his lazy personality fool you, when he fights seriously he is always 100 moves ahead of you. Now, if it is Kido and Hado you want to learn I recommend the Lieutenant of Squad 5, Momo Hinamori. Before you ask about her personality she is very shy, she admired her Captain a great deal, when she was betrayed by him it hurt her very much and made her worse, but over time she was able to overcome it and come out with the help of her friends. The one thing I would mention about her is do not mention her height, she might be shy but she has a temper that seems to come out when someone does and do not mention her formal Captain." Mayuri said.
Naruto nodded that he understood.
"A second teacher on Kido and Hado I would recommend is Rangiku Matsumoto. She is extremely lazy, is prone to lounge around and drink sake, but she also strongly believes in women's rights and hates when men put down women and degrade them, but she is also not afraid of hard work. For the third candidate I would recommend Rukia Kuchiki, she is stubborn, hard-headed and will always have her friend's back."
Naruto sat there reading through the information then remembered a conversation he had with his parents.
(Start Flashback)
As Naruto appeared in the sewer like room he looked to his left to see the massive cage holding back the nine-tailed fox, he could instantly tell that something has been changed, but couldn't make it out. He called out to his parents and heard a noise behind him. He turned around and saw his parents coming into the room from a doorway, the moment they see him Kushina rushed forward, grabbed his head and buried it in her chest that he immediately realized was bigger than it looked. This would be fine if he was 5 or 6, but all it did now was embarrass him.
"Oh it's about time you finally come visit us Naruto-chan!" Kushina exclaimed happily.
Naruto began to flap his arms wildly as he's basically being breast smothered by his mother... it wouldn't be as bad if it was a girl he knew, even if everyone saw it, but at least it was here and no one else could see them.
Despite how funny the scene was, though he wasn't laughing, Minato decided to have mercy on his son, reached out and put his hand on his wife's shoulder." Kushina dear, you're smothering him." Kushina quickly released him and crossed her arms over her chest as he dropped to the floor.
A few moments later Kushina quickly dropped to her knees to check on her son, quickly rubbing his cheek. "Come on Naruto-chan, come back to me."
Slowly opening his eyes he saw his Mother's face, but it was blurry and still disoriented from being smothered Naruto said the first thing that comes to his mind. "You know what Mom, with your round face and red hair you look like a big tomato."
Very slowly Minato retreats to a corner of the of the room as he watches as his wife begin yelling at their son about how she hates tomatoes and to never call her that again. Minato can hear the voice of the nine-tails say he might be the king of all the bijuu but even he's not brave enough to call her that, and how he can't believe he was agreeing with him, but at least he's being given a lecture and not getting beaten senseless, though Minato did catch the blur of her arm and she instinctively reached for her son's crotch, caught herself halfway was pulled back her arm,Naruto didn't know how lucky he was, that was an experience he knew very well and wished he didn't.
As Naruto sat on floor in fear for his life as his Mother begin to give him a lecture. By the time that Kushina finished Naruto was white as a sheet, the only sensible thing he can think of was, 'I'm sorry Yoshino, but you've been replaced as the scariest mom I know.'
Seeing that his wife finally stopped yelling, Minato starting back over to rejoin his family. Naruto instantly hides behind his legs and said 'you could give me some sort of warning dad'. Minato looked down at his son with a smile. "Now where would the fun be in that?"
After a short laughing fit from her son sitting on the ground pouting, Kushina quickly calmed down. "Now that we got that sorted out, why have you come to visit us Naruto-chan?"
Naruto stood and dusted himself off. "I was hoping that you could teach me about my family."
"Well of course we can, we'd be happy to tell you. Why don't you make a table so we can begin to explain to you everything that you need to know." Minato said.
Naruto looked at his Father. "Okay, one question... how do I make a table?"
All Minato could do is look down and pinch the bridge of his nose. "I'm really starting to regret saving that worthless Village. I'll explain this again, this is your Mindscape, you can create anything you can imagine so all you need to do is focus on what you need and it should appear."
Naruto nodded, closed eyes and focused on a table. A table with three chairs appeared a moment later then everyone takes a seat.
"Okay, we're going to start at the beginning..." Kushina said.
"Hold on one second I want to try something Mom..." Naruto interrupted then closed his eyes again, a large bowl of ramen appeared in front of him, opening his eyes he yelled excitedly. "I can't believe that actually worked!"
Naruto-chan I want one too." Kushina whined in a child-like voice. A bowl of ramen appeared in front of Kushina, and as soon as it was she attacked it with gusto.
All Minato could do was shake his head at scene of both his son and wife devouring the bowls of ramen. "That was the one thing I'd hoped you wouldn't inherit from your mother. Minato muttered to himself.
As the dinner went on his Mother and Father gave him a history of their families.
"So you're telling me that I'm not just a Clan Head of one but two Clans and if I wanted to I could claim the throne of the Land of Whirlpools?" Naruto looks at his father. "If that's true then why didn't the old man ever tell me any of this?"
Kushina looks at her son with an angry scowl. "I'm not sure why that old monkey never told you, and you can bet your ass that when I get my hands on him he's going to pay for what Konoha did to my baby! We asked him to make sure the village saw you as a hero and he completely ignored our wishes."
The rest of dinner was spent with them swapping stories
(End Flashback)
Naruto smiles. "I'm going to need one more Mayuri. I need a someone who can teach me how to act like a stuck-up Noble. And I know Yoruichi comes from high nobility as the head of one of the four Noble families, but she's my hand-to-hand teacher and I think it should be another teacher."
Mayuri begins to laugh. "I know just the person for you, if you want to learn how to be a stuck-up Noble there's is only one individual who I know, the Captain of Squad 6 Byakuya Kuchiki."
Naruto begins typing on the computer. "This is what we're going to do, we're going to activate everyone you told me about, when they are not training me they can teach at the academy." A few minutes later Naruto is standing in front of his new teachers. "Hello, my name is Naruto Uzumaki. I know that you probably have questions so I'll try and summarize what's happening. You're currently in the Land of Waves, in my home known as The Element Nations. I'm sure you know that this is not your home dimension, I found this building that Mayuri built as a Fail-Safe and I plan on making it a new Academy for this country and I want you to be teachers. For now I'll have Nemu show you to the living quarters and we can discuss this in the morning, but before you leave do you have any questions?"
Rangiku raised her hand. "I have one question, are those whiskers real and can I rub them?"
Naruto shakes his head. "They're just birthmarks and you can't rub them, there are only 3 people I know that can, if you want to rub them you going to have to earn that privilege Rangiku-chan." Naruto said, which made her blush.
Shortly after his new teachers leaves the room Naruto lets out a big sigh and a soft whistle as he leans on the table., blushing. "Dear Kami is her chest big, Yoruichi is average compared to her! Mayuri I want you to warn me about things like that from now on!" Mayuri's image just smiles, nods and vanishes.
A moment later a Shadow Clone opened the door, came in and handed him a scroll. "Good news, I was able to collect the Bounties on the three Waterfall ninja, the Jonin had a bounty of 500,000 Ryo on his head and both Genin had bounties of 175,000 Ryo a piece. I also took the liberty of picking up a bingo book." Naruto's clone said.
"Did they mention why both Genin had bounties that high, they weren't that good, both of them only killed like 5 Shadow Clones, combined... Sakura could do better than that." Naruto said, as much as he didn't like her and as weak as she was, she was a better fighter than they were.
The clone nodded. "They attempted to assault a female member of one of the Clans from waterfall before they went rogue, so the head of the family put the Bounty on their heads."
Naruto nodded. "That's good to know, did they mention Fuu?"
The clone shook his head. "No, it seems that the Hidden Waterfall Village has no interest in getting their demon bitch back." Naruto scowls angrily. "Sorry, their words, not mine... uh, yours... you know what I mean."
"They sound just like those miserable bastards in Konoha, how can they treat someone as innocent as Fuu like she doesn't even exist! It looks like I'm going to have to teach them a lesson as well." Naruto said fiercely.
Mayuri reappears. "Excuse me, but if you want to get Revenge on the Waterfall Village can I make suggestion... I would recommend stealing the national treasure of the village, it's called the Heroes Water, and honestly it was one thing I was never able to do why I was in your dimension due to the fact I could not locate it. From what I was able to understand it increases the power of anyone who drinks it, but it comes at a high price... it breaks down your molecular structure within minutes of drinking it."
An grin spread across Naruto's face that was so evil it even scared Mayuri, who didn't have a body. "That's definitely something I'm going to look into, perhaps I should look into making each of the villages pay for what they've done to their Jinchuuriki, unless they treated them with respect."
As Naruto is thinking of how he is going to do it he hears the voice of his Father. "I know for fact that Kumo has always treated there Jinchuuriki with some respect and see them as Guardians, if what you told me is true and Ai is the Fourth Raikage his younger brother Killer Bee has the 8-tails, then they also have the 2-tails."
"That's good to know, what about the other Jinchuuriki?" Naruto said.
"Well... Iwa has the 4-tails and 5-tails, Kiri has the 3-tails and 6-tails, and Suna has the one-tail." Minato said.
"Well right now there is nothing I can do about Iwa, they'd probably kill me before I even get close because of what happened in the third Great War, and Hidden Mist in the middle of a blood war..." Naruto hears his Mother's voice.
"Naruto-chan you could always go and try and make an alliance with Kumo, Ai owes me a big favor due to an incident in the Third Great War, as my son that favor carried over to you when I died."
"That's good to know Mom, I'll see if I can get there soon as possible. I also need to go back to the village so I can pick up more supplies for the Academy and with the money I got from these bounties I should be able to get a lot.
Naruto heard someone coming into the room as the door opened, he turned and saw Zabuza and Haku. "Hello Haku-chan, Mr Grumpy Pants, what can I do for you today?"
Haku stepped forward. "We just wanted to let you know that we are leaving, we're going back and joining the rebels so we can end this blood war and we just wanted to say thank you for everything you did for us."
Standing up from his chair Naruto walks up and hugs Haku. "I'm going to miss you guys, but before you leave I do have a few more things I can give you that you might like." Releasing the hug Naruto walks over to a table, grabs the sheet covering it and pulls it off, both of their jaws drop. Laying on the table are 5 of the 7 swords of the Hidden Mist that are missing. "It seems that in the time that Mayuri was in this world he was able to scan the 7 swords and I was able to use this technology to make a copy the missing ones, consider them a gift from me to..."
Before Naruto can finish Haku kisses him on the lips, afterwards both are blushing. Naruto barely managed to say. "Thank you Haku-chan."
Haku is unable to look at him. "You're welcome Naruto-kun."
While this was going on Zabuza was looking over the swords, his strapped to his back. "If you keep kissing my daughter like that I'm going to make up a marriage contract for you two." This makes them blush bright red.
A moment later Haku spun around facing him. "That Does it, I'm telling Mei Terumii on you!" Making Zabuza go white as a sheet, but before the fight can start Naruto interrupts.
"If you two start fighting I'm not going to give you my other gift." They stopped immediately,,, well, Haku did as she was about to attack. Naruto made his way back to the computer and pushed a few buttons, activating the machine in the middle of the room, a few seconds later the doors open a man that's even bigger than Zabuza walks out. "I would like to introduce you to the Captain of squad 11, Zaraki Kenpachi."
Kenpachi looks around the room and spots Naruto. "I'm guessing you're the one who activated the machine, why did you activate me... and it better be for a good reason."
Naruto looks up at him. "How would you like to fight in a war with plenty of people who are strong enough that they might challenge you?"
Kenpachi looks at Naruto. "Now you're speaking my language kid."
"Then I would like to introduce you to Zabuza Momochi. That's Haku, his apprentice and surrogate daughter, he'll show you where the fighting is, once it's finished return here." Getting three nods, Zabuza collected the swords. "See if you can get an alliance between Hidden Mist and Wave Country." With that said the three of them head out.
"Now that I have that finished I'm heading out for the night. I'll be back in the morning." Naruto made his way down the hallway until he saw two of the children from the village running down the hall. "Stop right there, no running in the Halls. "Both turn around and say 'sorry Naruto-sensei'. "Go on, but walk."
===20 Minutes Later, Tsunami's House.===
Naruto enters and heads into the living room where Tsunami is sitting in one of the chairs with a few other women and Fuu, the moment she sees him she stands up and give him a hug.
"Welcome back, this is my book club, ladies, this is Naruto Uzumaki... the Hero of Wave Country." Tsunami said with a small smile.
Naruto gave her a friendly glare at their reaction and decided to head off any fan girl type reactions. ''Well it's nice to meet you ladies, speaking of books here's the copy of my book that you asked for." Naruto took out 2 books, he handed one to Tsunami the other to Fuu.
Tsunami smiles at him, knowing he's getting her back for what she tried to do, then decided this wasn't something she wanted to win... besides, the very excited reactions of her friends was good enough... as the extra status this gave her was a nice bonus. "Thank you Naruto, I'll be sure to read it tonight... I don't suppose you have copies for my friends, I'm quite sure they would love to read it too." She said with a polite, slightly submissive tone and expression she figured he'd see and understand.
Naruto gave Tsunami a nod and smile, accepting his win in this brief embarrassment battle, pulled a scroll from his coat pocket and unsealed enough copies for the other women. "Please enjoy it ladies, make sure to let me know what you think and have a good night.." Each of the women take a copy.
Naruto turns to Fuu. "May I have a word with you?" Once they're standing on the porch Naruto looks at Fuu. "I just wanted to let you know that I collected the bounty on your old team, it seems that your village doesn't want you back so you're free, but I wanted know if you'd help me with something... do you know the location of the Heroes Water?"
With the biggest smile he's ever seen Fuu lets out a loud squeal. "Yes, I know where it is, it's located inside the big tree in the middle of the Lake... why did you want to know?"
Naruto smiled. "I plan on taking it as Revenge for the way the village treated you, what better way than taking the National Treasure."
"Well, okay Naruto, just be careful, it's very dangerous." Fuu replied.
Naruto put his hands on her shoulders. "Don't worry I'll be careful." With that they head back inside, as Naruto walks past the living room he sees all of the women reading their copy of his book and stops across the room from Tsunami. As Fu is joining them Tsunami looks up a moment at him, the instant she does he decides that she needs a taste of her own medicine for trying to 'fan girl' her book club on him. Half dropping his mental defenses he gives her a smoldering, dominant look that let her know he could have her and her friends 'screaming his name' if he wanted to, a moment later her eyes opened wide in shock and she blushed bright red, then he gave her a friendly 'I won't do that to you' smile, she sighed, gave him a nod of surrender and raised her book to hide her face before someone saw her blush, then he headed upstairs to his room. He was happily surprised moments later when he heard his Mom laughing hysterically in his head. He was happy she enjoyed his prank, despite how perverted it was at how he made Tsunami blush, he doubted she'd try something like that again. Besides, it was a good test of his new confidence, especially concerning girls and strong women, he had to be able to handle any situation, and if needed stand up to them in what ever way was required.
===July 19, 8:30 AM, Mayuri's Lab===
Naruto went to a large room that he had made into a conference room, he saw all the new teachers sitting in chairs around the table. "By now I'm pretty sure that Nemu and Yoruichi have informed you of all the details and what is going to happen..." Everyone nodded and he took some papers from his large coat pocket. "...here are your instructions. There are Shadow Clones waiting for you to either train or help you with teaching classes, either way your students are waiting for you." Naruto then looks at Yoruichi. "I've got a mission for you if you'll follow me back to the main room." Everybody nods, stands and leaves for their assigned rooms to train his Shadow Clones or teach the classes.
As they walk into the main room Naruto looks at Yoruichi. "I want you to break into the Waterfall Village, there's a large tree in the middle of a lake. in the middle of this tree you are to find the Heroes Water, I want you to bring it back to me." With a grin she leans down and kisses Naruto on the cheek.
"That shouldn't be a problem." Yoruichi said.
"Good. Just be careful, I don't want you getting hurt." Naruto said.
Yoruichi was gone moments later.
Naruto got a new idea, walked over to the computer, activated the main machine and a few seconds later the door opens and out walks Sui-Feng, the moment she sees Naruto she crosses her arms. "What can I do for you?"
"I want you to go out and collect as many Bounties as you can, here is a bingo book, it has a list of all rogue ninja and locations of bounty houses to collect from. I'd like you to return in exactly 1 week." Naruto said and held out the book.
Sui-Feng accepted the book with a slight smile then headed for the door as she began scanning it for the closest target.
"Okay, now that that's taken care of and all of my Shadow Clones are being trained, I'm going back to Konoha... I just wish there was a faster way to get there."
"You can use the portable doorway." Mayuri said then Naruto turned to him. "It's similar to The Senkaimon, but instead of traveling to dimensions it will allow you to travel to the village and back in an instant. The small device on the table to your right will allow you to activate it, you just need to say where you want to go.
Naruto picks up the device, thanked him then opened the device. "Training Ground 7, Konoha." A small paper door appears in front of him, opening the door and walks in.
===A moment Later, Konoha, Training Ground 7===
Naruto finds himself in training ground 7, turns around sees the door disappear. "That's definitely going to come in handy."
Avoiding the populated areas Naruto is soon walking through the park when he hears the sound of crying. He walks around a clump of trees and sees a small girl sitting on a bench crying and sits down next to her. "What's going on?" The girl looks up and he knows she's been crying for a while because of the red around her eyes, which also tells him she's a Hyuuga.
She looks up him and studies his face a moment. "You're the boy that my sister likes."
With a small smile Naruto chuckles. "Who is your sister?" When she says her name is Hinata he smiles. "What is your name?"
With a small hiccup she answers. "My name is Hanabi."
"It's nice to meet you Hanabi, now why are you crying?"
"Hinata got out the hospital few days ago. She was told she wasn't supposed to do any training, but my father said that it didn't matter and made her fight one of the Elders, even after she couldn't fight back or defend herself he didn't stop the fight... now she's in a coma and we don't know if she's ever going to wake up." Hanabi said sadly.
Naruto's face instantly goes red with rage and he begins to unleash massive amount of killer intent, sending all the animals in the area fleeing the scene, when he sees that he's beginning to scare Hanabi he takes several deep breaths to calm down, this was not the time or place for him to draw on Kyuubi's chakra, even accidentally. "Hanabi, I want you to tell me everything you know." He said as calmly as he could, but knew his anger still came through in his voice. At least he wasn't scaring Hanabi any longer.
