Reunion
Rin looked over to Naruto and stated "Naruto-senpai, I'm already keyed into the gate as is Kakashi-kun, we couldn't get into the house but we can get into the gate though."
Naruto stroked his chin thoughtfully, that meant he wouldn't need to do much to key them in if the simple method worked, likely it would just require adding an extra seal with the person's blood and channelling chakra to integrate it into the rest of the seal but he would look in the basement later to see if more information is there.
Kurenai got a thoughtful look on her face before she stated "Uh excuse me for asking Naruto-san but what of your daughter's mother?" Naruto blinked at the question before genuine sadness came over his face remembering Kushina's death.
Taking a sigh he stated "There was a complication during the birth and it was too late to do anything to help her, she died a short time after the sealing" Hiruzen's eyes took on a sad tone as well, he was shocked when he arrived to see Kushina even alive after having the Kyuubi ripped out of her yet she proved the Uzumaki longevity. Kurenai eyes widened before she bowed "I'm sorry for asking"
Naruto merely waved his hand in understanding before he turned to Looking over at the Sandaime he stated "Anything else Hokage-jiji?"
The man narrowed his eyes before he spoke sternly "Yes you three are not to reveal Naruto-kun or Naruko-chan's heritage to anyone outside of this room or his house. As Chunin I hope you will understand what could happen if word got out that a relative of the Yellow Flash exists in Konoha." All three bowed in understanding then Hiruzen turned to the man in front of him. "Unless you know the secret to defeating every Kage's greatest enemy paperwork than that will be all Naruto-kun. Alas even after all these years it has eluded me"
Naruto blinked at him in shock before he exclaimed "You can't be serious, you really can't think of a way to ease the amount you have to do?" Shaking his head in disbelief he muttered quietly to himself. "Seems geniuses are overrated"
Hiruzen Sarutobi was in shock, this young man in front of him claimed to have the answer to his problem ever since he became the Hokage. He knew he couldn't get his hopes up but if it was possible how could he not find out what he was, with the best puppy dog eyes he could muster he stated "Tell me please Naruto-kun"
Naruto couldn't believe the man he looked up to all his life was being serious, with a great sigh he formed a familiar seal and formed a Kage Bunshin "Seriously old man I'm disappointed, you're even renowned as the Professor. Memories are sent to the original so you would know everything they did"
The pipe clattered to the floor as the old Hokage's jaw dropped in complete shock. All these years he could have not only avoided having to do the paperwork himself but could have done it faster. "Come on guys, I think he needs some time alone" Naruto muttered while walking out of the room, the three girls following after.
3 days later
Naruto yawned as he got up and checked on Naruko. Oddly enough Naruko was adjusting way to fast than what he was told by Tsunade. He wasn't completely sure if it was due to Kyuubi or being an Uzumaki or simply having a large reservoir of chakra at only 4 days old. But he wasn't too bothered by it. He finally took the time to go over the last few days.
The meal with the 3 girls went well. Just as he remembered the Ichiraku's didn't turn cold eyes to Naruko or Anko for that matter surprising her greatly. Naruto had wide eyes when a 5 year old Ayame asked for his autograph. Teuchi had burst out laughing saying she loved his giant firebird Jutsu he had performed. Anko begrudgingly stated that Ramen wasn't as bad as she first thought and blonde Jinchuuriki simply ruffled her hair and gave her a knowing glance.
Rin didn't have a dog partner since she focused on being a medic instead of a front line fighter so the need to learn her clan's partner Jutsu wasn't required. All she knew was the basics like Shikyaku no Jutsu (Four Legs Technique) and the Tsuga (Passing Fang). Naruto explained that as the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki Naruko will possess abilities much like those of the Inuzuka clan, enhanced senses being the main similarity. When she channels it's Youki she will possess traits very much like the Skikyaku no Jutsu. So her and her clan will be invaluable to help her control the animalistic nature it brings.
Kurenai he found didn't have much under her belt other than her custom Genjutsu. It was common for an orphan not to be taught elemental Jutsu. Her sensei obviously didn't help either and he couldn't help but think the same for the current Hokage and Tsunade, Asuma plus Ino then his own team with Kakashi and Sakura. Since she didn't have a clan either it would make sense. After some thought he realized that she was only a new Jounin when he graduated so that's 12 years from now. He told all three that he would train them as payback for agreeing to help him and Anko was ecstatic. Rin didn't think he could help until he hinted he knew a bit about how Tsunade might use her super strength and that got her excited as much as the other two.
Anko had indeed moved in and he had keyed both her and Kurenai into the gate. After swearing all three to secrecy as this was also an SS rank secret he explained that like his daughter he too was a JInchuuriki. He went outside and channelled some of Jubi's chakra to show Rin what he meant earlier, his whiskers thickened, hair stood up sharper. Eyes turned to silver with black slits and canines enlarged giving him a much more animalistic look. His body bent to more like a four legged animal and her eyes had widened considerably at the similarity to her clan's famed Jutsu.
Once Rin and Kurenai had left Anko had launched herself at Naruto and cried her eyes out. Naruto had to admit she was a lot like himself in his youth. Full of energy and just wanted to prove her worth and gain acceptance from the village and her peers. Letting her stay with him was apparently the best thing that had happened to her since Orochimaru took her as his apprentice. But even Orochimaru always kept her at a distance and she was closest to him.
Her Sadistic nature was all a mask just like his own prankster one in his youth to hide the pain of being completely alone. With her only parent figure that believed in her not only abandoning her but leaving her with that curse mark on her neck. Naruto thought he had enough to hate that Snake bastard for but what he did to Anko angered him more than even what he did to Sasuke once she finished telling him her story. Even though he remembered an older Anko telling him what really happened it still didn't change the facts to how she must feel right now.
To be fair he also began to explain his own childhood. He obviously altered certain facts so that Konoha and certain ninja or civilians weren't mentioned in the retelling of the story. Anko was staring at him in awe at the end of his tale but she had an odd glint in her eye that unnerved Naruto a bit. He wasn't sure what it was but it looked somewhat like how Sakura and Ino would look at Sasuke and it sent warning bells ringing in his mind.
Anko explained she loved Dango since it was the one place that served her when she returned to the village. To everyone else she was the "Snake whore of Konoha". Naruto in turn explained why he loved Ramen. With him being "The demon brat" it being the only place that would ever serve him so Ramen became his comfort food throughout his youth.
The first morning he had actually let his guard down as he slept and had awoken to find her cuddled into his side. His clones were laughing at the look on his face while he scowled darkly at them making them both dispel out of fear of what he might do. When he shifted to try to get out of her hold Anko had merely snuggled closer making him sigh loudly. He was saved when Naruko took that moment to start crying waking up the purple haired girl.
Anko took one look at Naruto junior before she got a massive grin and raced out of the room shouting "Senpai's a pervert" It took him a promise of daily trips for Dango to get her to promise not to do it again or spread that around. He scowled afterwards realizing he had been played by a 12 year old girl hoping she held her end of the bargain.
The second day Rin and Kurenai had come around after he sent Kage Bunshins to retrieve them. He had given the girls the option for resistance seals that he would increase as they got used to them. Minato had used them so he could adjust to the feeling of the Hirazshin apparently but Naruto couldn't help but see how useful they would be to increase people's speed. He had applied it to himself a short time later with a clone's help since Minato stated it should be placed somewhere easily accessible like the stomach. Thanks to the Jubi's seal on his gut he used the clone to put it on his back. After demonstrating how it worked by turning it off and showing them his 'increased speed' they agreed to have it applied.
He might have moved slower before disabling it but they had no idea he had only applied it the day before. After all, he was meant to be a survivor of the famed Fuinjutsu clan. When he had asked them to lift their tops so he could apply it Kurenai and Rin had blushed and sent him glares. Anko just grinned and threw her top off revealing she wasn't wearing a bra and caused Naruto to turn away and blush deeply. For a 12 year old the sadistic kunoichi had developed well Naruto couldn't deny that fact.
Naruto ended up explaining in great detail he didn't need them to actually take off their tops and that he just needed to apply it to their stomach or lower back since it's the centre of the body. The former two girls agreed to have it placed on their lower backs. Anko begrudgingly agreed to the back as well since she was refusing to put her top back on until it was applied and Naruto was refusing to put it on her stomach unless she covered herself up more.
They spent the rest of the afternoon trying to get used to it. At the end of the day he explained how to disable them, increase the resistance amount and stated it wouldn't be a good idea to keep them on all the time. All three girls noticed the slight difference and ease they could move after struggling all afternoon but their speed didn't really increase much. Naruto explained he didn't put much resistance to them and they shouldn't expect a huge difference in one day. But it would be good to apply it just for everyday activities, once used to them increase the amount of chakra and start from scratch.
Today he was awoken from the perimeter seal indicating someone had bypassed the barrier without touching it. That could only mean it was one of the girls, the Hokage or Kakashi. Naruto created a clone to guard Anko's door and another two to guard Naruko before heading downstairs cautiously. He created a clone in case he needed to substitute with it.
Walking outside he dodged the Kunai coming at his head and caught the second going for his heart. A familiar laugh echoed around him and his eyes widened "Oho, maybe the fight will be interesting Gaki. I see you also got into Minato's property which could mean you are related. However"
Naruto felt a Kunai to the back of his head and Jiraiya spoke in a deadly voice "I'm still not convinced, you could have used Naruko-chan to get in here and I was not aware of my student having any blood relatives still alive. Especially one that happens to be a Jinchuuriki if those markings on your cheek are anything to go by. What is your purpose?"
Naruto chuckled before he stated "Ahh you must be Jiariya or the Sannin. The self proclaimed super pervert and Toad sage of Mount Myoboku. I take it you haven't spoken to the Hokage yet but I can assure you I am related to Minato Namikaze." He charged a Rasengan before letting it dissipate.
Jiraiya pushed the Kunai further and stated "How did you learn that, Minato's scrolls are well hidden and I'm positive he didn't even leave any on how to do either of his prized Jutsus. He wished for me to teach it to his daughter if anything happened to him before he got a chance to do so himself"
Naruto let out a sigh "I've got quite a story to tell you Ero-sennin. One that will sound unbelievable but even I'm having a hard time believing it. Unfortunately I can't tell you the same story I told Hokage-jiji since you have so many spies out there you could discover my claims are false. I'm not worried about Danzo since he wouldn't reveal it anyway. He would just try to find a way to use me to his ends but I will deal with that if the time comes"
Jiraiya frowned at the nickname and it deepened at the end but this boy shared a strikingly similar look to his recently deceased student. He knew the Rasengan and something about him wanted to trust the boy. He didn't lower the Kunai however and spoke "Very well start talking"
Naruto dispelled shocking the man greatly before a voice behind stated "Sure but come inside, I need somewhere private to talk and the basement will stop Anko-chan from walking in"
Jiraiya's eyes widened, the basement was one of his student's greatest inventions. It held his money, scrolls and most importantly alcohol. If this boy could see it and access it then he could truly be related. There is also the fact he seems to be looking out for his old teammate's apprentice. Following the boy but with his guard up they walked up to what looked just like a wall, Naruto then indicated to walk through and narrowing his eyes did so.
"I knew the kid was a Genius but wow this is impressive even for him" Naruto chuckled following behind him, once at the bottom Naruto let out a sigh. "Alright this is going to sound crazy, I am the son of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki and I'm 18 years old, my life started when I became the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki many years ago"
The legendary ninja looked at him like he was an idiot. Naruto then began to tell his tale. He kept it merely an overview since he wasn't sure if the perverted sage would try and alter things but Naruto wanted to figure out if being another Gender was the only difference. A man with a massive spy network was perfect for that. Just the basics or his childhood up to the point he came back, relationship with the old hermit and how his death got to him.
By the end Jiraiya looked to be considering it "Let me get this straight, you are from a future where I was your father figure. You completed the Rasengan, perfected Sage mode and mastered the Kyuubi but you were caught by powerful foes who wished to extract the Kyuubi but instead of dying you became the host to an even more powerful Bijuu the Jubi. You were sent back in time by some time space Jutsu you believe but you are not a boy here you are a girl and you have decided to raise yourself so she doesn't go through what you went through"
Naruto nodded smugly "Pretty much, I don't know much about what happened around until 12 years from now so I don't want to go messing with the timeline. If the timeline will even remain the same, I mean I'M A GIRL HERE ERO-SENNIN" He finished hysterically.
Jiraiya sat there stunned just staring at the Yondaime lookalike in shock. Naruto sighed before he rubbed the back of his neck "Uh can you let me sign the contract, I need to summon Fukasaku-sensei and Shima-senpai so I don't go turn into a toad or anything when trying to enter sage mode. I'm not sure if having the Jubi now will affect my ability to do so"
Jiraiya's eyes bugged out before he exclaimed incredulously "Wait you can summon both elders so easily" Naruto shrugged "Yeah sure not that hard really, my Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, now there's an attack that burns up the chakra let me tell you"
Jiraiya sweat dropped, it took him time to channel the necessary chakra. If this kid could do so with that much ease he must be a pure chakra powerhouse. But he wanted to see the boy's statement for himself. That and he couldn't master sage mode, he always got a big nose and it frustrated him greatly which is why he stated he would only use it as a last resort. He summoned forth the toad that held the contract but when Naruto unrolled it to sign his name his eyes widened.
"Huh my name is already here" Jiraiya looked just as surprised before checking for himself and there written next to his student was Naruto Uzumaki "Hmm I have a theory but summon the elders and we'll see if it's true"
"Kuchiyose no Jutsu" (Summoning Technique) Naruto stated before slamming his hands into the ground, once the smoke cleared two small toads stood looking at Naruto "Naruto my boy why did you summon us? Are you responsible for-"
Naruto stared at them wide eyed surprised they recognized him. Ma interrupted Pa when she gasped "Jiraiya-kun, how can this be you died" Pa spun around and had wide eyes "Not only that Ma but he's younger too, so it wasn't just Mount Myoboku that was affected?"
Jiraiya's eyes were just as wide since this has basically confirmed Naruto's story. He pointed at Naruto and stated "I think you followed the Gaki. He's said he was forced back through time. If I was truly dead and he was your last summoner you might have somehow followed him to this time"
"Time-travel! Naruto-kun what have you been doing boy. Pa that might explain why Bunta was so freaked out and I haven't seen Kichi leaping around pranking anyone lately, oh if it is true he might only be a tadpole now" Shima turned to narrow her eyes at Naruto and he held up his hands "I didn't do anything, it was that red eyed bastard that's to blame. I didn't plan this, I mean I'm A GIRL here Shima-senpai"
Jiraiya perked up at the red eyed bastard comment but Pa narrowed his eyes at Naruto "If we are truly back in time then you must not discuss future events Naruto-kun. If you truly are a different gender then this world could have many other changes. People you knew in your world may not be the same, do not rely on what could be. I don't believe you went back in time but through it, a parallel world if you will. Jiraiya boy is right however. At the very least our memories must have come back with you, likely only the toads you have personally summoned before will remember. Kichi and Tatsu were born around the time you were Naruto-kun so they are or soon will be born."
"Of course they are, not like you ever bothered to check on the young Pa" He turned his back to her "I do it when you're not around, no need to scare the children Ma" She screeched out "WHAT! It's you who would scare all the children, don't even try-"
"Hey Gramps I summoned you for another reason, Ero-sennin wants to see my sage mode but I'm now the Jinchuuriki for the Jubi so I'm not sure if it'll work the first time" Both elder's stopped to look at him in surprise.
"Wait you actually somehow managed to get the other 8 Bijuu to join with Kyuubi" Naruto grumbled at the insinuation "Well it was that or join 'him'" The Elder's nodded in understanding 'Got that right Gaki, the only one that complained was Ichibi but he was the retarded part of me. Plus you beat him as a retarded Gaki yourself. I mean being beaten by a mini retard must have hurt his ego quite a bit'
Naruto growled causing the toads and sage to look at him oddly "Sorry, the wolf unlike the fox seems to be able to talk to me whenever he wants. His favourite game is abuse the Gaki" 'HAHA I like the name, abuse the Gaki it is' Grumbling again about bastard furballs he stated "Alright I'm going to try it now, knock out the Nature energy if it goes haywire please"
Jiraiya then shouted "Wait you're not going to use the elder's?" Naruto cracked an eye open "Huh, oh yeah I remember gramps tried that once, I can't use that method cause of furball." Before he began to feel the Natural energy and drew it in. He felt it enter and combine with his own chakra before his eyes snapped open with yellow eyes and horizontal slits.
Jiraiya gasped "You did that so quickly! And why don't you have any deformed features but your eyes. It's not fair you cheated" Naruto just chuckled and scratched the back of his head. Pa smacked Jiraiya since he was about to keep ranting.
"Well I guess that explains that then, thanks guys you don't have to stick around though. Apologize to Bunta and the others for me. Oh I might summon you for the fight against JIraiya, I've always wanted to fight him all out" The elder's nodded before disappearing in a poof of smoke. Jiraiya stopped himself from continuing his rant to think about it. He only really battled with the toads in sage mode and had never fought anyone else really. Suddenly he got a massive grin on his face too, if there was one thing he loved as much as spying on beautiful women was a good sparring match.
"A fight with another sage, oh this will be great Gaki. So tell me did Tsunade and me..." Naruto looked away sadly "She realized her feelings for you when you left on the mission that killed you. She even betted that you would die hoping you would come back. Your death affected her as much as Dan and Nawaki"
Jiraiya visibly deflated knowing he caused his secret love, well obvious love for the woman before he perked up. "Oho but I did manage to get her to admit she did like me, even if I was around to see it"
Naruto just looked at the man incredulously before shaking his head. He had to admit he missed the old pervert greatly. "Alright let me go feed and change Naruko-chan, wake up Anko-chan then we can head over to the Hokage tower. Quite a lot of people want to see me humiliate you, especially the women."
Jiraiya let loose a booming laugh "Please Gaki, I doubt you could take me now I know how strong you are. You even said you'd let me use sage mode" Naruto laughed in return "Ero-sennin I nearly killed you with only 4 tails of Kyuubi's youki, I can control 5 tails of the Jubi, that many tails could take on Kyuubi alone"
Jiraiya paled before staring at him in shock "What the hell are you Gaki? Whatever I doubt you've ever seen me go all out and you can't use Sage mode or your Bijuu cloak since you don't want to reveal your secrets. So I will win once I go into sage mode" Naruto just laughed at the old man's optimism before walking up the stairs.
Naruto nodded at the clone outside Anko's room that dispelled before he banged loudly on the door. "You can come in senpai I'm naked" Jiraiya looked at the boy in shock knowing the girls age while Naruto paled "Anko-chan we got a guest"
It was silent for a few moments "Well you can tell Kurenai-chan and Rin-chan they can join us" Now this caused the opposite effect and Jiraiya sent Naruto a lecherous grin that he groaned at "It's Jiraiya of the Sannin"
Silence rained for longer this time and she shouted "Why?" He sighed "Because I'm going to beat him up in front of the majority of the village" The door opened to show a fully clothed Anko smile sadistically at the old pervert.
"Oh and after the battle Anko I'm going to look at getting rid of that hickey on your neck, I need Ero-sennin's opinion to see if it will work" The girl's eyes widened significantly before she looked at them both in shock. Jiraiya too looked at him in surprise since the collective minds of Minato, his sensei and himself couldn't find a way to counter or remove it.
He created a Kage bunshin "The clone will explain what I mean since you seem surprised while it makes Naruko-chan some formula" She followed after the clone asking questions continuously while Naruto continued onto his room.
"Can you really do that Gaki?" Naruto looked up and shrugged "I don't know for sure, we were looking at ways to remove or counter it from data we got in my time. I hope with that added knowledge and both our skills in seals we might find a way to do something about it. At the very least get the bit of that snake bastard's soul out of it. And here is your Goddaughter Ero-sennin"
Naruto glared at him when he said this and he chuckled nervously "I uh guess I didn't come see you when you were younger" The glare didn't leave before he let it drop sighed "No the first time I met you I was 12 but I think you might be the one who gave me Gama-chan. From what you told me you were making sure I was as safe from outside sources like Iwa while tailing that snake bastard's movements. I'll need you to do the same again for both of us. My similar appearance to Minato won't go unnoticed by spies"
Jiraiya let out a sad sigh before looking down at the infant who had opened her eyes to the new face looking down at her. "Well Gaki how's it feel to be a Dad?" Naruto chuckled "Pretty weird for many reasons. I don't think I'll ever be able to reveal the truth to her when she's older though."
Letting out a long sigh he nodded before his nose twitched "Especially considering it was you that had to deal with this, I'll be downstairs Gaki" He shunshinned out of the room leaving Naruto to change Naruko.
Naruto left to take a quick shower while his clones changed her. 20 minutes later he came down in uniform with Naruko strapped in her harness fully awake looking at the two people giggling on the kitchen table. Narrowing his eyes Naruto stated "Oh what's so funny here? Are we ready to go?"
Anko smiled innocently that made Naruto shiver, he knew that smile. That was his smile, that was the prankster smile. "Nothing senpai, just saying how close you might become to your three future babysitters" Looking over to Jiraiya who had his notebook out Naruto paled "Don't you dare Ero-sennin"
The man looked up like he just got caught peeping by Tsunade and quickly hid his notebook away "I don't know what you're talking about Gaki" Naruto looked at the both of the innocent looking ninja before turning and walking to the door. They quickly followed after.
They left the gate and began walking through the village so Jiraiya stated "Uh Gaki why don't we just shunshin to the tower?" Naruto looked back before shrugging "This makes more sense, word will spread you are here so more people will see me kick your ass since I've got even more motivation now"
He scoffed at the boy but noticed everyone was indeed whispering all around. Reaching the tower they saw Anbu leave the tower in multiple directions and Naruto started laughing "Oh people are eager to see your humiliation Ero-sennin"
Jiraiya froze where he was "You got motivation, oh I got motivation for that nickname Gaki. You better hold onto your end of the deal" Naruto just smirked but he was wondering what he would do to compete with sage mode Jiraiya, Taijutsu, Ninjutsu would be useless but he did have one more ace in the hold that would come in handy.
Reaching the office the secretary's eyes widened "Jiraiya-sama, go right in" She looked at the other two with him then at the baby but she didn't dare glare in front of Naruto. Walking into the office Naruto exclaimed "Yo Hokage-jiji. You got a place to kick this old pervert's ass yet?"
Jiraiya stood to his full height "Will you stop saying that, you can't even use your secret power up if you want it to remain secret. You stand no chance Gaki" Hiruzen chuckled before signalling the Anbu and ordering them to gather everyone at Training ground 40 the standard Jounin training grounds. "Ahh you were my last worry in regards to Naruto-kun Jiraiya-kun. Plus I see he revealed his secret and origin?" Jiraiya nodded. Naruto had told him the false story he gave plus the real one just in case.
"Very well I'll cancel all meetings for the morning and will meet you both there shortly" They all bowed before walking out of the office. "Anko-chan I'll leave Naruko-chan with you during the fight alright. It's your job to keep her safe" Anko looked up surprised before nodding with a massive grin plastered on her face.
