Land of Fire, Jigoku Town
Naruto, Sakura, Tenzen, and Jiraiya sat across from Tsunade and Shizune in a restaurant. "So why are you here, Jiraiya?" Tsunade asked as Naruto ate some ramen.
"Sensei had ordered you to return," Jiraiya said as Tsuande opened her mouth. If you do not comply, you will be dragged there by the power of the Kyūbi if need be," he told her as Naruto stopped eating and looked at him.
Tsunade looked at Naruto, who looked at the sage. "Can I ask why I am the threat?" the blond asked as Jiraiya smiled at him.
"Oh, it's simple, you see, it's training," he told Naruto as he looked back at Tsunade. "You told me about the Rinnegan and its abilities, so if you take hold of her with a tail and slowly take chakra from her so that she can not fight back," Jiraiya said as Tsunade's eyes shot wide.
"So I have to go volenterily or be forced agest my will," Tsunade said as she looked at Naruto.
Who, in return, looked at her with a bored look in his eye, "And to think that you're the granddaughter of the Fūinshi," Naruto said with a deadpan look as Tsunade looked at him with a scowl as Jiraiya looked shocked at Naruto.
"What's supposed to mean?" she asked him. Shizune let out a squeak, and Tonton oinked.
And Naruto returned with a scowl of his own. Still, with blood-red eyes, "You, sadly, have Uzumaki blood within your vains, and with the Senju clan extinct, and with my mother being the former head of the Uzumaki clan it fall to me to say this," He said as he looked at her, "As the head of the clan you are apart of, I order you to return or I will ask for you to be put in the bingo book," Naruto told her as everyone looked at him in shock.
"You won't do that," Tsunade said as she looked at Naruto.
"I would," He said as he looked her dead in the eye, "I have an S-Rank ninja on my ass that want to destroy the world by bringing all nine of the bijū together," Naruto said as he activated his Kurama chakra mode.
And while those with him felt calm.
Tsunade and Shizune felt suffocated.
People cleared out of the restaurant as Naruto's voice flowed off him in waves. "Now, what choice do you pick?" Naruto asked her.
Tsunade punched the wall next to her and looked at Naruto. "You and me, kid, " she told him as they walked out.
Naruto stood across from Tsunade as she charged at each other. They started to fight hand-to-hand and moved around. "How is he doing this? His bones should be broken, and he should be heavily bleeding," Tsuande thought as she looked at Naruto.
"Chakra Enhanced Strength, while impressive, has one weakness," Naruto told Tsunade, who looked at him.
"Oh, and what is that?" Tsunade asked him as she charged him.
Who caught her fist as if it were nothing, to the shock of Tsunade and Shizune. "When you train with someone who has used this for two years and is using Kage Bunshin, I found the weakness in it," Naruto told her as she looked at his hand in shock. And it's the most simple thing in the ninja world, chakra expulsion," he told her as her eyes widened.
"Chakra expulsion?" Sakura asked the sage, who smiled.
"Think about it when you learn how to walk up trees or on water, and you send to much chakra out of feet," Jiraiya told her as she looked amazing.
"So that means that when our future selves were sparing, he must have found a way around my Chakra Enhanced Strength," Sakura said as Jiraiya nodded. Tsunade looked at Sakura before she turned to her teammate.
"What is she talking about?" She asked him.
"Naruto used a Kinjutsu that the bijū knows, and he sent his mind and soul back in time to save the world," Jiraiya told her as Tsunade looked sceptical. "And Inoichi looked in his head and saw that Naruto was telling the truth. We are trying to make sure we are doing what the original timeline did and also fix the mistakes that led to him coming back," he told her as Tsunade looked over at Naruto.
"Why have you realy come for me?" She asked Naruto.
"For you to become the Godaime Hokage once more," Naruto told her as he looked at her. "You were the Hokage during the war, and you managed to bring up the Medical Ninja to a point where they grew in standing in the other ninja corps," he told her as Tsunade stood down and looked at him.
"How was my run looked by the people?" Tsunade asked him as he smiled at her.
"They loved you as Hokage," Naruto said as he powered down from his chakra mode. And the village became stronger, and we got more money in," he told her, looking shocked.
And Tsunade started to smile at him, "Anything else?" she asked him.
"Yes, Konoha gained more allies, as we became allies with Kiri, Kumo, Iwa, Taki, and many other villages," Naruto told her as they looked at the woman in shock, "And even when Ame fell, you made sure that all the refugees got a place to live," He said as he now stood in front of her as she looked at him.
Tsunade smiled, "Then I think that it's time for me to return to being Hokage," she told him before she looked at him, pulled off her necklace, and gave it to him.
He looked at it with nostalgic eyes. "It seems that I got this once more," he said as he put the necklace on again.
And Tsunade lent in and kissed him on the crown of his head for some reason.
One Week Later, Konoha, Hokage's Building, Hokage's Office
Hiruzen looked at his two students, "Thank you for coming, Tsunade," He told her.
"If the future needs me to become the Godaime Hokage once more, then I'll do it," Tsunade told her sensei, who nodded at her.
"Good, and thankfully the Akatsuki are now down two members with Kakashi taking out Kisame, and when Itachi learned the truth, he started to agree to wipe out Oto bases for us until the time that Sasuke kills him," Hiruzen told them as Kakashi, Shikaku, and Inoichi walked in.
"Sorry we're late Hokage-sama," Inoichi said as Hiruzen nodded at them.
"It's alight, and I've got us one step closer to stopping the war," he told them as they nodded at him. "Right, Naruto, what happens next?" Hizruzen asked them; everyone turned to Naruto.
"Well, Tsunade-Bachan sent Team 7, apart from Kakashi-sensei, to Land of Tea, where we were hired to aid the Wasabi Family in their race with the Wagarashi family," Naruto told them; they narrowed their eyes.
"I see, so I must have been thinking about getting more allies for Konoha," Tsunade said as she cubed her chin before she looked at Naruto. "Where did I send Kakashi?" she asked him.
"From what I managed to gather together Kakashi-sensei, Asuma-sensei, Kurenai-sensei, and a few others were sent to the border with the Land of Earth," Naruto told them as Hiruzen and Tsunade looked at each other.
"They must have been investigating my death," Hiruzen said as the others in the room.
"Then, after that mission, Sasuke returned to the hospital. Sakura started her training with you," Naruto said as he looked at Tsunade, who nodded as she looked at Sakura. "Then we were sent to the Land of Snow, where we were escorting the actress Yukie Fujikaze, whose real name is Koyuki Kazahana and is the Daimyō of the Land of Snow," he told them as Kakashi and Hiruzen narrowed their eyes.
"I see, so I go back their," Kakashi said as Naruto nodded.
"Yeah, I created a variation of the Rasengan, Nanairo no Rasengan, with real rainbow chakra," The blond told them as they nodded at him.
Tsunade looked at her sensei, "I have an idea; with us wanting Sasuke to leave the village and with Orochimaru soon to be changing his body, we can kill two birds with one stone," Tsunade said as they looked at her.
"How is that Tsunade-sama," Shikamu asked her as she looked at him.
"During my time during the war, I created a poison after curing so many, and it is one that eats away a chakra," Tsunade told them as they looked at her.
"And why did you tell us this?" Inoichi said as he looked at her.
"Simple, after some tweaking, I can make something that will take three years to erode away and then release the poison into the person's system, and they will then be killed after a week or two," Tsunade told them as they looked at him. "And it will take me a few hours to create the capsule, and then we just need Sasuke to be put in the hospital," she told them as everyone looked at Naruto, who sighed.
"Alright, how do you want me to do this?" He asked them as they looked at each other.
"I'll have the two of you spar," Kakashi said as Naruto nodded. "And make sure that you break something in his body," he told Naruto, who nodded.
They then started to plan some more as Hiruzen stood up and looked out the window of the Hokage Building, "It seems that everyone is gathered," He said as he looked at his student.
The two of them walked to the roof of the building.
Two Days Later, Training Ground 7
Kakashi looked at his team as he looked at Naruto, who was working on seals; Sakura was readying over a medal journal next to him while off to the side was Sasuke was brooding and glaring at Naruto, "Good, everything is working according to plan; he just needs a little push before we can put the plan into action and remove some Oto ninja from the board," Kakashi thought before he clapped and got his students, Alrightt, I want two on two spars, first up is Naruto and Sasuke," He said as Sakura sent him a look.
And Sasuke smiled and walked over.
Naruto joined as Kakashi looked at the two of them. "Now form the Seal of Confrontation," he called out as Naruto did it while Sasuke did not. He glared at Naruto. "Sasuke, I gave an order. Give the Seal of Confrontation," Kakashi said as he looked at Sasuke, who did it begrudgingly.
Kakashi looked at the two of them once more before he nodded, "Begin," He called out as Sasuke ran at Naruto.
The blond started to counter every stike Sasuke sent at him, "Dame him, I should have been the one to get that rank," Sasuke thought as he looked at Naruto, counting every hit.
"So how are you guys?" Naruto asked the beasts as he fought Sasuke.
"Doing good, and thanks for changing the space; it's better like this," Kurama told him as Naruto blocked another strike.
"Yes, thank you, and I can team you up with more Fire Release if you wish," Matatabi said as she looked into Naruto's eyes.
"And it seems that Indra's reincarnation is now running out of patience," Hogoromo told Naruto, who looked back at Sasuke, who had his Sharingan active. Naruto saw that the Curse Seal was starting to crawl over his skin.
That was when Naruto went on the offensive, pushing Sasuke's arms away before stabbing all ten fingers into his chest. As the Uchiha lost all the breath in his lungs, Naruto jumped up with his knee to the face.
He then hooked his leg around Sasuke's neck and started to punch him repeatedly in the chest.
Kakashi had to force himself to make it look like he was worried about Sasuke, while Sakura showed nothing for Sasuke.
After a punch to the temple, Sasuke crumbled to the floor and was knocked out.
"Well, I think you could have held back a little bit, but good work in following the Hokage's orders," Kakashi said as he summoned two clones, one taking Sasuke and the other heading to the Hokage.
"Thanks, he was using the Cirse Seal, so right then, Sakura, you and Naruto spar," Kakashi said as Sakura smiled at the blond.
They formed the Seal of Confrontation before starting their spar. Kakashi watched them go at it and smiled at the two of them as the clone he sent to Tsunade had just dispelled.
"Good, that's done, now all we need for Oto to take Sasuke, and then we'll sent some Chūnin out this time instead of a team of Genin," Kakashi thought as he looked at his two students as they fought.
After a while, Kakashi stopped the fight with Naruto, who had a finger in Sakura's face while she had a fist in his.
"Well done the two of you, I have to say, Sakura, you've improved a lot since you started to study under Tsunade-sama," Kakashi said with an eye smile.
One Week Later, Uchiha Compound
Sasuke scowled as he thought back to the training.
Or lack thereof.
Kakashi was now training Naruto with Lighting Release and Sakura with Earth Release.
And he was getting nothing.
"How dear they do this to me," Sasuke growled as he pushed his wall. I am Sasuke Uchiha, and I am the one who is supposed to get everything that I want," he roared as he punched another wall.
"But no, that fucking retard and his little bitch are getting everything handed to them on a fucking platter," Sasuke yelled out as he started to smash his home up.
"Now, now, is this the Uchiha that we have been told about," A voice behind him said as he turned to see Sakon and his brother standing there.
"Who are you?" Sasuke asked as he looked at the grey-haired teen.
"I am a mamber of the Sound Four, one of Orochimaru's guards, and I have been tasked to bring you to him," Sakon said as Sasuke looked at him.
He smiled, "Alright then, let's go," Sasuke said. Sakon smiled and led Sasuke out as the rest of the Sound Four awaited them.
They did not know Tenzen was watching them, so he rushed to the Hokage Building, where Tsunade was behind her desk.
"Hokage-sama, it seems that Orochimaru has started his body transfer," Tenzen said as he appeared in her office.
She looked at him and smiled, "Good, and while it is ahead of schedule, we just need to stall them, so sent out Chūnin and some Jōnin, those that you think can both match them and kill them," Tsunade said as Tenzen nodded and sped off.
"I have to say, Hemi that this is a little early is it not," Jiraiya asked as he stood across from her.
"Yes, but if we think about this, Orochimaru will want the Uchiha so that he can change his body, and you took Naruto on a training mission for two and a half years," Tsunade told him as the sage nodded at her. "This way, we do not have Sasuke distract us, and we can make plans for the Akatsuki," she told him as Jiraiya nodded.
"True, and I've already started having my spies track the members," he told her as she nodded.
"Another thing is that you going to want to make Orochimaru think that we want Sasuke back," Hiruzen said as he walked in.
"Why is that sensei?" Tsunade asked him.
He looked at her and smiled, "It is an easy task. We have to make it look like both the Akatsuki and Konoha want him dead, and in doing that, he starts making mistakes," Hiruzen told her as she nodded at him, "And with the mistakes that he makes, we can start to capitalise on them," he explained to his students who looked shocked.
"And the sooner we do that, Oto can be wiped out that the Akatsuki can be pulled apart, but who do we go after first," Jiraiya asked as he looked at the two.
"Sasori," Tsunade said as they looked at her, "He had Kabuto as his 'spy', and if we remove him fist, Suna does not lose power by having Gaara have less power himself, and they don't lose Chyo," she told them as they nodded.
"And from from what the kid had told us, Obito becomes the partner of Deidara after Sasori's death," Hiruzen said as they nodded.
None of them said anything for a while before Jiraiya looked above the office door and saw his student's face. "Let's do this right this time," he said as he looked at the pitcher. "The kid has bet a lot on us to do this, so let's make sure that it's not going to fail," Jiraiya told them as they nodded at him.
"Agreed, and I want to make sure that Asuma is alive at least," Hiruzen said as both Jiraiya and Tsunade looked at him.
"Sensei, what if Asume's death is a fixed point?" Tsunade asked him as he looked at her.
"Then Hidan is going to face the wrath of my and Shikamaru, and then we shall see how his immortality works," Hiruzen said as the others nodded.
