The next morning at the Sasaki house

The morning in the Sasaki house was bustling. Yumi was helping Ema feed Kojiro while Hikari and Hayami were cooking breakfast. Naruto had gone outside to sparr with Gaara, and Kono was talking with the rest of team Baki and Tazuna. The morning passed in peace, and breakfast was served when Naruto and a slightly bruised Gaara walked back into the house. Once they'd eaten, Naruto dressed in everyday clothes, getting ready for the meeting. He'd sealed his sword into a seal on his bandages. Naruto walked out of his room to see Hikari coming out of her room. She was in a black V-neck shirt with a small brown shoulder jacket that went to the middle of her back. Her hair was hanging free with some light blue jeans and black heels. She had on a black belt with a bag strapped to the belt. Naruto kissed her before they walked to the living room to see Tazuna laughing while holding Kojiro as he pulled on jis beard. Hikari leaned into Naruto's side, and Naruto wrapped an arm around her waist.

"I guess we got a grandfather figure for him."

Naruto laughed and nodded as he looked at them.

"Ya."

They walked over, and team Baki, seeing Naruto, got up. Naruto hugged all his girls quickly and kissed each other before the group left with a laughing Kojiro in Naruto's arms. Naruto knew Mai would kill him if he didn't bring Kojiro. Soon, the group arrived in the village and raced across the rooftops. Soon, they had to split up. Team Baki left for the academy while Naruto and Hikari headed for the Hokage tower, the laughing Kojiro holding Naruto's tank top. Soon, the three arrived, and as they walked, Kojiro called out for Mommy as he looked at Hikari. The two froze as they heard his voice for the first time. Hikari's smile was unmatched as she snatched Kojiro from the stunned Naruto. Soon, the three kages and ninja clan heads were all coming to the tower, and all stopped. They saw an overjoyed Hikari dancing around with smiling and laughing Kojiro and a depressed Naruto kneeling on the ground, playing with a stick. Kushina and Tsunade couldn't help but see a young Minato when he heard mommy as all the kid's first words.

"What's wrong kid?"

A asked as he walked closer. Before Naruto could answer, Kojiro spoke again in his excitement.

"MOMMY!"

Everyone watched as Naruto all but sunk into the ground. Hikari laughed as she spoke up.

"That's right! I'm Mommy Hikari!"

Naruto sighed, and everyone heard his muttering.

"It's fine. I don't need to be the first one he calls for. I don't care about that at all. It's not like I tore Kiri apart looking for baby clothes, toys, and everything else while fighting off ninjas and ANBU."

Everyone looked at Naruto and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him. What father wouldn't like to be his son's first word? His former family moved a little closer to him. Kushina was the closest of them all. She saw how Naruto was like his father in more ways than looks. Kushina went to reach out to try and comfort him but a savage dropkick made her jump back. Ema, Kono, Yumi, and Hayami all landed on the road. Hayami giggled as she looked down at the depressed Naruto. She kneeled and patted his back as she looked down at him.

"Mommy!"

Ema's head snapped to the side, and she saw Kojiro holding his arms.

"My baby's first word!"

She rushed over and snatched Kojiro from Hikari, who got an annoyed look on her face. Naruto emerged from his depression and sighed as he got to his feet. Naruto turned and saw Ema smothering Kojiro with kisses as he said mommy repeatedly. Naruto laughed as he watched them as they all tried to get him to say their names before Naruto heard a girlish squeal. One Naruto recognized, and he jumped onto the side of a wall. All the people near the girls were thrown away as Mei ran to her nephew. Naruto quickly got to the roof and looked down at Mei as she had Kojiro in her arms and hugged him tight to her chest. Then she looked around, then up. Naruto tensed as she looked at him.

"Ah, there is the future mist, Jonin Captain, if I have my way."

Naruto laughed as he dreaded today. Whenever Mei saw him, she would try to make him a mist ninja.

"C-come Mei lets not do this again."

Mei smiled as she looked up at him.

"Naruto, I told you I'd never give up on making you a mist Ninja. In fact I happen to have brought a few spare headbands and jonin vets. Now, get down here before I come up there after you."

As Naruto was about to respond, golden dust grabbed her.

"He doesn't want to be a ninja! Now give me my grandson!"

Kojiro pulled away softly with the golden dust. Naruto saw Rasa walking up, and as he got close, he caught Kojiro, who grabbed onto his robes. He laughed as he rubbed his back and looked up at Naruto. At the same time, he released Me from the gold dust.

"You can relax, my boy. I know you don't wish to be tied to a village and the sand will back you up if someone tries to force you to be a ninja. Now, come down and let me get a good look at you my boy."

Naruto smiled as he jumped over the edge and landed before Rasa. Rasa looked him up and down, smiled as he stepped forward, and pulled Naruto into a one-armed hug.

"Good to see you again. It's good to see my wayward boy and his family."

Naruto laughed a little as he patted his back.

"Rasa, you know, if you wanted to see us, all you had to do was use the seal, and we would have returned. I see you as a father figure after my father, Kojiro, passed."

Rasa smiled as Naruto pulled back. Naruto had a soft smile on his face as Rasa patted his chest. Then, Rasa looked down at Kojiro as he played with his robes.

"Good, Kami, look at you, little desert fox, you've got big on your grandfather. Before you know it, you'll fight girls off with a stick."

Naruto and the girls roared with laughter as Mei moved into a play with Kojiro's free hand. At the same time, the group of kage-level fighters were talking and playing with Kojiro. His former parents, godparents and the other kages were watching on.

"Come on, Rasa, Mei, let's go inside O have some snacks sealed."

Minato was glaring death at Rasa. He was beyond pissed as he had the gall to call Naruto his boy and himself the grandfather in front of him. But what made it worse was the fact Naruto showed him the respect and warmth he'd been hoping for since Naruto returned. Minato was trying to decide whether or not it was worth going over and demanding he get away from his son and grandson. Kushina looked on, pissed, as yet another woman got to hold her grandson as if she was family. It angered and hurt her as Naruto freely let her near his family. Tsunade only looked at the parents with a sad look in her eyes. She knew how badly they wanted Naruto to let them into his life, but seeing all this, it became clearer. There was no place for them to be part of it as a family. Jiraiya just watched on silently, a deep frown on his face. He still couldn't understand why Naruto couldn't show this side to them. Naruto didn't need to form this family. He had one waiting for him and his family to rejoin them. He decided with these many power figures, he would back Naruto into a possession where he had to pick a side finally.

Inside Hokage tower

Naruto sighed as he sat in the seats to the side with his girls around him. Kojior was over with Mei, again, who'd snatched him back from Rasa. Naruto had also noticed how his former family looked at them. Then there was how Jiraiya was looking at him. But, soon, the civilian council members walked into the room. Naruto narrowed his eyes as he walked bear his family, and they gave him the look that you just need to die. Everyone saw it, and all the kages weren't happy as they looked on. A stood and spoke before they could sit.

"Hey! Stop with the glares at Naruto and his family, you damn sorry cowards!"

Naruto smirked as he saw the shocked and angered looks on their faces. But, a pink-haired woman screamed back as she looked at him.

"Be silent! That demon and his whores shouldn't be here! We, the civilian council, demand they be kicked out of this room!"

"Oh, that was the wrong thing to say."

Naruto laughed at Ema's words, and before he could blink, gold dust flung her from the room, followed by a stream of boiling water. The woman screamed as the hot water hit her. Naruto laughed as he leaned back in his chair. Rasa and Mei knew everything about his past. A and Onikie knew what they needed to know, and with the look in their eyes, they were on his side. The other civilian council members were shocked as they looked at the five angry kages as they glared at them. Minato stood and unleashed his ki as he looked at them like the devil looked at a guilty soul.

"Shut up and sit down before I kill you all!"

The civilian council ran fear in their eyes, and Naruto laughed as he watched them run to their seats. But then, the elders walked in and saw that their support system was terrified in their seats. They frowned as their support was now gone for this meeting. They took their seats, and Danzo saw the new powerhouse of the Leaf and his family sitting to the side. Danzo had been having his roots, keeping them under watch. Danzo wasn't stupid enough to pick a fight. He'd seen the report of the massacre. He wasn't stupid enough to throw his men at a fight they couldn't win, and he knew about the meeting between the boy and the other two kage. He was sure the meeting would be discussed and wanted to know what they discussed again. Once everyone was seated, the doors were closed, and the seals activated. Soon, Minato stood and spoke.

"Hello, honored guest and fellow Kage. I'd like to wel…"

"Mommy!"

Everyone stopped as Kojiro yelled for his mommy, and Ema quickly stood and walked over to take him. She apologized to the kages and said she was fine while the civilian council glared at her. Naruto and Minato both flared their ki, and they glared at them. The council quickly looked down at the table, not wanting to risk death by either of their hands. Naruto then noticed the woman of the elder council as she looked at the laughing boy. She smiled as she looked at him and waved at him when she caught his eye. He waved back to her, and Naruto laughed a little, seeing his son's smile.

Minato cleared his throat before speaking again. '

"As I was saying. Welcome to the hidden Leaf village. Not, a tradition as the hosting village I open the floor to the kages of the villages to speck freely."

Minato sat back down, and Naruto noticed A smirk as he looked at him.

"I was a sparring match with Naruto first change we get I want to see how you fight without a sword."

Naruto smiled as he looked at him. He waved his hand in a come-and-get-me gesture.

"I'm happy to take you on anytime. I wouldn't turn down the chance to test my metal against one the strongest ninja around."

A smiled as he looked at him. The Mei spoke up again.

"Naruto, now that were talking business I heard you may have something for me."

Naruto nodded and pulled out the bounty scroll. He explained, and everyone who didn't know looked at him, shocked, as he threw it over. Mei caught it and sealed it into a bracelet Naruto had given her long ago.

"I know your telling me the truth but you know I'll have to check the head."

Naruto nodded before Onoki spoke up this time.

"Young man, I'd like to ask if your willing to come to Iwa during the month of training for the finals. My granddaughter has come to like you and your family and is looking to sparr with you."

The room was silent as someone had finally asked the question they were expecting. But as Naruto went to respond, Kushina spoke up.

"My son is not going anywhere near Iwa!"

Naruto summoned a kunai, and Kushina quickly sat back down. Naruto resealed the kunai as he glared at her.

"I'm not your son now unless you have something that is actually important sit there and stay silent."

Kushina started to tear up, but Naruto snorted as he looked at her.

"Yes, yes tears again now stop with the act."

Kushina looked down as a few tears fell, and Minato looked at Naruto.

"You don't have to be so harsh Naruto. We know we made mistakes."

Naruto let out a dry laugh as he looked at him. Then he smiled as he looked at him.

"You know what, fine, with all these witnesses here, I'll hear you out this one time. Give me one reason why I should care, even for a moment. Name one thing either of you did something for me. The neglected and unwanted child when I still lived in the leaf village as a member of your family. Any farther son moment you can thing of. Any loving mother who helped her bleeding and beaten son as he cried for help during the ninja and villager attacks!"

Naruto glared full force at Minato, who couldn't meet his eye. All the kages looked at him, waiting for his answer, while the councils sat quietly as they helped plan those attacks. Once Naruto didn't get an answer, he laughed as he looked at him.

"That's what I thought, you damn tree-loving bastard."

Onoki and A both snorted out a laughed as they heard Naruto. Much to his former family's annoyance, this set the tone for the meeting. The village leaders didn't care until Jiraiya finally spoke up.

"Naruto I have to ask. If a new conflict was to breakm out which village would you stand with?"

Naruto looked at him, and a smirk crossed his face.

"Hm, trying to back me into a corner now toad? Well, I'll make this clear. If the mist or sand isn't invaided then no. I also have no reason to either fight or protect Iwa or Komo. Now, if one of the small nations I'm associated with or my friends in those nations then I will pile as many bodies as I have to."

Tension filled the room as the two kage-level ninjas stared each other down. Naruto's answer made it clear he had no intention of taking a side unless his friends or allies were attacked first. So his stance was one of neutrality at the moment, and thus, Naruto didn't confirm whose side he'd be on. Jiraiya frowned as the answer he got wasn't the one he wanted. He knew Naruto claimed it the way he had made it so he and his family would be seen as a neutral part unless they had to act. Meaning his attempt to force him to pick a side had backfired and made him seem like he was the one looking for a fight. Something everyone had seen, and two kages weren't happy about Jiraiya's statement.

"I have a problem with your words Lord Jiraiya."

Everyone looked at Mei as she glared at Jiraiya angrily, making him flinch back.

"I do as well. That also makes me think maybe our alliance needs to be rethought. I'm also thinking Naruto was right about forming an alliance with the mist over the leaf."

Rasa's words made Minato and Danzo sweat a little. If the sand left the alliance, the eastern lands would all be enemies. But if sand and water formed an alliance, and a war broke out, it would be a two-front war. Minato decided to step in to try to stop this.

"Sensei that was a pointless question."

"No it's not."

Everyone looked at Naruto as he kept his glare up.

"I know you all heard us yesterday, and now he knows if I turn on you, there is no way to stop me. And, before anyone asks ya, it's a valid threat."

The silence that followed Naruto's words was deafening. Mei was the first to break the silence.

"I think we should take quick break for all of us to take a breath."

Naruto sighed and nodded as he looked at her.

"You're right, sorry Mei, but the people of the leaf are some of the few I hate with everything I am. Besides, Me and Hikari will be leaving soon while the others get ready to leave the leaf."

With that said, everyone was shocked to hear that. Danzo, with some anger, spoke up.

"Sir Sasaki, why are you abandoning them Leaf?"

Naruto snorted as he looked at him.

"Your Hokage and the ninja don't seem to be able to hold to their word of leaving my family alone. Attacking our houses making me have to slaughter over a hundred of your ninjas and ANBU combined not a few days ago. The deal was I would help with the A-ranked mission and pay with the understanding you'd all leave my family in peace. From what I was told not even a day later our homes were being circled by ANBU and my wives on of which is pregnant were followd around by ninja."

Danzo frowned as he shot Minato and Kushian a nasty look. What made it worse was with two kages friendly to this family. Plus, having friends high up in the minor nations meant Naruto and his family couldn't just vanish. But, not wanting this powerhouse to leave, he spoke again.

"Sir Sasaki, I'm sure we can talk about this. Surely there is a way to avoid you all leaving."

Naruto raised an eyebrow before Hayami spoke up with a razor edge to her voice.

"Sir Danzo, how do you expect us to remain here when it's been nothing but hostility towards our husband? I've also noticed that some of the stores we shop at are charging us two to three times as much as others while some act like were not there. And even a few owned by men had propositioned Hikari and me while Naruto, Ema, and Kono were away, saying if you'll sleep with the demon."

"WHAT!?"

Rasa and Mei yelled together, both enraged and standing while. Minato, Kushina, Tsunade, and Jiraiya paled after hearing that. The civilian council suddenly didn't want to be in the room while the clan heads were shocked. A and Onoki were looking at all this and rethinking letting their teams remain in this village for another hour.

"MINATO!"

Rasa yelled at Minato with the anger a father would have.

"I demand justice for them this minute! I want the overcharged money returned and those men arrested for harassment! If not, I will break our treaty and alliance and openly declare hostilities with the Leaf!"

"The Mist will also declare hostilities. Heroes of the Kiri civil war will not be treated like this!"

Mei and Rasa yelled while the clan heads paled, seeing the embers of a new war starting to burn. Naruto and his family sat back as they watched Minato scrambling to try and calm the situation. Naruto couldn't help but smile as he watched him scrabble, trying to save the village's alliance and stop the mist from becoming an enemy village. Twenty minutes passed before everything had calmed down. It was clear Rasa and Mei were far from happy or satisfied with how the Leaf treated Naruto and his family. Once the meeting was over, the village councils left in a hurry. The clan heads were rushing back to their clan compounds to get ready for a possible war while the civilians were rushing to get ready to run. They remembered Minatoi's wrath from ten years ago. They didn't want to be in the blast radius again. Once everyone cleared out, Naruto, his family, the kages, and the Hokage's family were the only ones left in the meeting room.

"Um..."

Everyone looked at Tsunade as she looked at Naruto.

"Um, maybe we were wrong to do things this way. Naruto, but maybe we could talk about this again without the other kages here?"

"NO!"

The other four kages yelled, and Tsunade flinched. Naruto smirked as he looked at her then he and his family stood up.

"Well, this was an interesting way to spend a morning. Would anyone not from Konoha like to come to our house for some mid-morning tea?"

A nasty look formed on Jiraiya's face, and he slammed his hand on the wall and smoke erupted from the wall. A large brown toad appeared and then jumped to the door, blocking it. Naruto raised an eyebrow as he looked at him.

"Is trying to trap four kages and five other kage level fighters really the best idea?"

Jiraiya narrowed his eyes as he looked at Naruto.

"It is when one acts like his family is nothing to him."

Naruto narrowed his eye and crossed his arms.

"My family means the world to me. The fuckers you're referring to I long ago cut ties with and want nothing to do with. How many times do we have to go over this? I already beat both your and the old woman's asses when you tried to fight me the other day. Now, you're trying to shame us in front of our friends and family from the sand and mist."

"They may be friends but not family, Naruto."

Naruto and his girls, even Yumi, laughed as she's been told everything.

"They are as far as we are concerned. Now, you have ten seconds to move the toad before I kill it and then you so we can leave."

Everyone's eyes widened at that. The two stared each other down before Minato snapped at his Sensei.

"Sensei! Send the toad back! The last thing we need is you two fighting to the death!"

Naruto and Jiraiya looked at each other for a few more seconds before he looked at the toad.

"Sorry to call you here for nothing."

The toad shrugged and then went up in smoke. Once the doorway was cleared, Naruto, his family, and all the foreign kages were about to leave But, then Naruto stopped when he saw Hrist walk into the doorway Brunhilde at her side. Knowing the plan, they all started to act. All the kages saw Naruto go stiff and start to shake.

"A-aunty Brunhilde!?"

Naruto, his wives, and Yumi backed up a few steps, and everyone saw they looked scared. The woman crossed her arms and she looked at Naruto with narrowed eyes.

"Whatever happened, I had nothing to do with it!"

Brunhilde started tapping her foot as she looked at him. Then she uncrossed her arms and started walking forward. Naruto started back up and soon was backed up to the desk with Minato and Kushina behind him. Brunhilde stopped right in front of him, and she was glaring up at him. She grabbed his collar and then yanked him down to her level.

"Crap…"

"Young man… I'm giving you ten seconds to explain yourself. Why has my sister told me your threatening a nation's ninja village."

Naruto put his hands up and spoke quickly.

"This is the village I told you all about!"

Brunhilde looked at him briefly, then pushed him to the side, keeping her grip. She looked down at the blonde man and the redhead.

"Oh."

Brunhilde let go of Naruto then, in a flash, she had her hands around Minato's throat, choking him.

"Your, the fuckers who made my nephew's young life a living hell! I'll kill the lot of you and then help burn this place to the ground!"

Naruto quickly backed away, not wanting her now real wrath on him.
