Right now, Tenzo Yamato is doing his utmost best to hide from the two most powerful ninjas of their time having a conversation. In a remote place amidst the bustle of people from many places, hoping to see Naruto’s wedding, the two are having a conversation. A conversation that was unsurprising, but is currently going down the rails.
The up and coming Hokage definitely needs security despite his prowess. It seems that the jinchuuriki ignored his presence so he just continued to lay low. In a secluded alley, The two are talking, catching up with each other when it suddenly turns serious in an instant.
“Ya know, Sasuke, I will get married today…” ‘He did not sound joyful.’
“I know, dumbass… Congratulations…” ‘The Uchiha heir did not reflect a congratulatory tone as well.’
“So… You are going to leave the village soon. I will get married… Are you going to finally revive your clan, bastard?” ‘The joke was weak’
“I suppose, yeah that’s what I’m gonna do. You are gonna get married after all.” ‘There was bitterness there, Yamato could feel the resentment.’
“Hey Sasuke, if I were a girl, would things have been different?” ‘!!! Yamato wanted to disappear, he does not wish to listen anymore. Any movement and he would be detected’
“Heh. Forget about that, people are saying we’re brothers. Disgusting.”
“Huh! Why is that? You emo bastard! Just… yeah, my wedding. Attend or not, you decide.”, Naruto said with resignation. In an instant, the Hokage-to-be flickered to somewhere far away from his perception.
Now he was only waiting for the Uchiha heir to disappear as well, but he was standing there. Suddenly, a Chidori was slammed through a nearby wall.
“All those years of trying to bring me back and then you marry a woman…” He deeply sighed, “It’s too late. I can’t bear to go.”
Sasuke then body flickered as well and all that was left was Yamato. His legs were trembling so hard that it gave out. This… What should he do? During their time together, he thought it was one-sided or Naruto-kun’s friendship with people was just like that. He also couldn’t help but care for the boy in the time we’ve spent. Learning this… he’s stumped.
Naruto would be the Hokage of the village. He already looked emotionally unstable at the start of his term. This could bring repercussions to the village… Yes, if Naruto was not in good condition, the village would be in hot water. The Hyuuga princess as well, if Naruto were to only marry her for the public, the marriage would suffer. The entire Hyuuga clan would make a fuss, Konoha couldn’t bear to go through another civil war in such a short time span. Yes, Naruto suffering would be bad for the village. This is not because he cared for him, it’s for the village!
The marriage ceremony was now starting. Yamato took a seat at the aisle near the front. He was going to do this, for the village. Everyone was cheering, he also played along. They were also shouting congratulations to the bride and groom. Naruto’s smile was not as bright as he was used to.
The wedding ceremony proceeded, everyone went into their places. Yamato was having doubts whether he should make a scene or not. The purification ritual has just finished, the smiles Naruto was giving turned dimmer and dimmer. Before they could start with drinking the wine, Yamato made a decision.
“Stop the wedding!” Everyone’s attention was drawn to Yamato. There’s no turning back.
“What are you doing Tenzou-san?”, some Konoha elder he didn’t bother to look at said. Yamato continued on.
“Naruto-kun you don’t want this marriage!” he declared.
“Yamato-sensei…” Naruto was looking at him, voice wavering and with disbelief, “I am going to get married. After that I will become a Hokage and build a family with Hinata.”
‘Why can’t you say it with your usual enthusiasm then?’ “A Hokage who is a Homo!”. Gasps erupted all around the room. Hinata also had a darkening expression. She was having a realization that perhaps Naruto’s feelings for a certain criminal was not brotherly. She had suspicions but the Uchiha was not present in their wedding.
“Naruto-kun, I saw it all. When you are sleeping, you always mutter ‘Sasuke’ again and again. When we were camping, you were gripping your sheets as you muttered his name, wondering if he ever thought about you. I could go on and on. You are a homo! You were yearning for Sasuke Uchiha!” Yamato brought out all of the moments he witnessed Naruto who was doing his all to bring back the Uchiha.
“We-we are brothers Yamato-sensei!” Naruto was continuously defending himself. Convincing others, or specifically himself.
“You do not share blood Naruto! If we base on reincarnations, then everyone has committed incest! Is this the Naruto who managed to inspire people and never gave up on his goals?” He immediately countered. The argument he heard the two were having was easily solvable.
Everyone in the wedding venue was now dead silent, watching Naruto argue with his former teacher.
“Still… Yamato-sensei, Sasuke wanted to revive his clan.!” Naruto immediately shouted back.
Hinata was looking pissed behind Naruto. “I would like to withdraw from this wedding.” She announced to the crowd. She was walking to the backrooms, shedding angry tears. Her teammate, Kiba followed her to support her.
“I am a man! Men can’t have children… I can’t do that to him.” Naruto’s voice was now wobbly, he was trying very hard not to cry.
Unbeknownst to them, from far away, someone was hiding themselves, watching the whole wedding from the start.
“So what? You can transform into a woman and you have an endless chakra reserve. One of the Legendary Sannin, Orochimaru was Sasuke’s teacher at one point, he could help you two make a child. Just make a reasonable deal, Naruto-kun.”
Naruto was now crying, “Despite it all, he doesn't return my feelings! He’s probably long gone from the village right now. I love him!” he screamed out.
A flash of black suddenly flickered behind Naruto, immediately guiding his head to meet him. In front of the wedding attendees, Sasuke Uchiha was kissing Naruto Uzumaki. “Dobe, that’s all you had to say.”, he was now smiling fondly at Naruto who was a crying mess, “would you still have me?”. In the middle of Naruto who was now full-on sobbing, “Of course. You bastard! Why didn’t you stop me earlier? You scene stealer!” He was hugging Sasuke tightly.
A lot of people were clamoring in the background with mixed reactions. Yamato is ignored by everyone now. Behind him, his senpai appears, “Good job, kouhai”, he smiled then body flickered beside Iruka.
He also could see Hinata crying, Kiba was consoling her. It was better this way, she would not suffer a loveless marriage.
Yeah, he did a good job, for the village of course.
