Battle
Naruto appeared in a shunshin at training ground 40. He was intrigued since there was a large lake nearby. Besides that there was a large open area perfect for practising Jutsu and since it was off the side to the mountain a strong breeze was flowing making the area perfect for training. He unbuckled Naruko and gave her over to Anko making sure she was secure, as he started to walk away he quickly turned and began giving the purple haired chunin the scrolls with formula and changing table.
Anko quickly interrupted his lecture though. Naruto quickly discovered that it seemed taking care of babies was part of a kunoichi's separate training while at the academy, so Anko knew exactly what to do. Naruto went into sage mode and channelled some of Jubi's chakra, 4 tails worth and created four clones, each had a chakra cloak with one tail "Fire, Earth, Water, Lightning" He stated each element with a finger pointing to a clone each. He then sent them to the four areas on the outskirts of the grounds.
Naruto shunshined Anko and Naruko outside of the soon to be barrier, setting them down "Stand back Anko-chan" Once she did as instructed he brought out one tail and the clones all went through hand signs at the same time as him and slammed their hands into the ground. Five kanji appeared on the ground underneath each clone and him representing each element, the clones transferring all their chakra to the seal before dispelling. Naruto's being wind. Slowly a silvery barrier formed going high into the air and meeting up at a tip at the top. It slowly shimmered and became invisible to the naked eye. Naruto was actually panting from the amount of chakra, natural energy and youki he put into it.
Naruto could already feel his chakra replenishing steadily and shunshined back over to Jiaraiya. Noticing the man's questioning gaze he explained "Something tells me our attacks will do some damage. This barrier should stop the attacks from going into the crowds. I have no doubt Hokage-jiji will have set up some sort of protection but with us spamming massive attacks more than likely I thought this might be a good idea. It's a barrier they used to try and stop me and another Jinchuuriki from escaping before I came back."
Naruto didn't give Jiraiya the chance to comment on that last statement so continued "Usually it would take 5 Jounin level shinobi proficient in one of the five elements to continuously pump chakra into it. It should have the potential to even hold off any Kage's elemental attack using most of their chakra theoretically with the amount of chakra I put in. Just for good measure I added natural energy and furball's youki to hold off your sage attacks too. One tail is probably equal to a kage and I just put 5 tails worth into the barrier, so yeah I think you get the point of how strong it is"
The white haired self proclaimed super pervert grinned sadistically realizing he really wouldn't have to hold back at all. He would have held back against Naruto if there was only limited protection for the spectators. After all, some of his attacks had the size and power to take out boss summons while in sage mode. Most Anbu wouldn't be able to react let alone block most if not all of his sage techniques. Now the boy had pretty much given him the cards to victory.
Jiraiya began to giggle like he had just spotted a lake full of naked women causing Naruto to actually look around the area curiously. Seeing nothing he furrowed his brows in confusion at what set the man off. After all he had never really seen Jiraiya fight all out in a spar situation where the aim isn't to kill the other man, hell he had never seen him fight all out at all. The perverted sage decided a test was in order and eyed Naruto, after all he didn't want to waste his own chakra before the fight.
Naruto let out a sigh at his former teacher knowing what he wanted to see. Since he wouldn't be able to enter sage mode again during the fight he gathered the natural energy again. To make sure no one besides Anko was currently watching them, satisfied he channelled some of Jubi's chakra too, but not even a tails worth. 'Gaki you better not be doing what I think you are, my chakra is far more potent than Kyuubi's. Using the tailed beast Rasengan without mastering my youki is just foolish especially with the amount of Youki you put into that barrier... Oi don't ignore me Gaki, I SAID STOP YOU STUPID FOOL'
Naruto let out a sigh at the annoying wolf's demands within his head, he wasn't even planning on using the Tailed beast Rasengan anyway. 'Shut up furball, I'm not a complete idiot. I was just going to use a giant Rasengan'
The Jubi began muttering abusive comments as Naruto leapt into the air and created a Giant Rasengan before slamming it into the barrier which didn't show signs of strain at all. Dispelling the ball he shunshined back to Jiraiya "Satisfied?"
Jiraiya let out a snort before a grin came onto his face "Well a Giant Rasengan is hardly one of my strongest attacks, but the barrier didn't look to weaken at all. So yeah I guess I am Gaki"
Naruto rolled his eyes as he realised what his former sensei was feeling. He is probably even stronger then the Sandaime and has been for many years. There are probably few he could fight with on equal footing all out that isn't a life and death battle. Naruto was sure this, which is a simple spar would be the best test to the old sage in years.
Soon enough people began arriving in flocks. Naruto fell on the floor laughing when a civilian was walking briskly, ignored the shinobi standing just before the barrier and walked straight into it. The Hokage appeared with his personal Anbu squad and they all noticed the barrier immediately, the chakra pulsing around it was at well beyond even kage level and he knew Naruto must have done it. He had no doubt the shinobi not in the council meeting probably thought it was his former student however.
After another 10 minutes of waiting he decided that the wait was more than enough. All the councillors, most Jonin, Chunin and important members of the civilian community were present. He had a feeling it wouldn't be a two second fight. No this would be a lengthy kage level battle with high powered jutsu. It was why he had come with his personal Anbu, he was going to have them make a barrier to protect the audience.
Hiruzen ordered his Anbu to keep surrounding Anko and Naruko to keep them safe during the fight since they were no longer needed and went through a set of hand signs. His projected voice bellowed out "I believe you can begin now Jiraiya-kun, Naruto-kun."
No sooner had they heard the words Naruto vanished and reappeared in front of Jiraiya. But the battle hardened shinobi didn't earn the title of Sannin for nothing. He caught the incoming fist at the same time aiming a kick to the blonde's side. Naruto caught the leg and pushed it back, the now free hand heading for his opponents face. Jiraiya let go of the fist he held and did three hand signs before slamming his hands to the ground.
"Earth Release: Stone spears" Sharp jagged spikes popped up from the ground aiming to pierce Naruto. The blonde leapt away from the spikes but noticed them popping up where he was going to land. Forming his most familiar hand sign a shadow clone popped to existence and threw him in another direction.
Naruto was already through a set of hand signs when he landed "Lightning Release: Lightning hounds" A group of dogs made of lightning charged through the spikes heading for Jiraiya. But all they hit was a log.
"Fire release: Flame Dragon Bullet" Naruto didn't even turn in the direction of the voice just quickly went through a set of hand seals and slammed his hands into the ground "Water Release: Dense Water Wall" He was already running through another set as the water rose "Water Release: Water Dragon Projectile"
"Three elements!" An Jounin exclaimed loudly, earning murmurs throughout the crowd, even Hiruzen was stunned at the revelation. They weren't just simple attacks either, they had power behind them that usually takes years to master if it's not your primary element.
The fire and water collided resulting in a loud hissing and steam to appear. They water returned to the ground revealing Naruto not even looking winded from the techniques. "Oho, impressive Uzumaki. I wonder who taught you such attacks?"
Naruto snorted at the obvious hidden meaning behind the words. "Please, that old man I told you about wasn't that good of a sensei"
Jiriaya's grin faded and he snorted "Well with that attitude I'm not surprised. Ninja art: Needle Jizo" His hair elongated and headed towards Naruto.
"Come on old man, you can do better than that. Earth Release: Rock wall" Naruto taunted before slamming his hands into the ground, a hard rock wall rose out to block the spiked hair.
"What the fuck Gaki? You can use such powerful techniques from four elements? That has to be cheating. Wait a minute, you said you created a super powered wind release technique this morning. You can use all five!" Jiraiya stated incredulously, after all he hadn't seen someone able to use all 5 elements since Nagato, but the boy had the Rinnegan.
"Well yeah I can use all five, my primary element is wind" Naruto stated getting gasps from the sidelines that was able to travel all the way to the fighters. Naruto looked over innocently at the wide eyed audience before turning back to Jiraiya.
"How about we turn this up a notch Ero-sennin? Earth release: Rock prison" A solid rock wall appeared laced in chakra, he did this so the Hyuga wouldn't be able to see what he was about to do. "Alright I think it's time for you to turn up the heat. Kuchiyose" The two elders appeared in a puff of smoke in front of Naruto. "Hey guys, mind helping him go sage. I still find it funny you can't do it yourself ero-sennin"
The man began glaring furiously "I can do it myself, just not as fast as some freakish Gaki" Naruto just laughed while the elders hopped onto the hermit's shoulders. Naruto watched his features change and fell over laughing insanely. Jiraiya roared "That's it, I'm not going to hold back you little punk. You will see the true strength of – GAH, what was that for?"
Ma lectured "You are in a battle, a battle has no time for meaningless squabble" Jiraiya muttered something about doing what you preach that earned him another smack.
Naruto stopped laughing and stood back up but wasn't prepared for the increase in speed. Jiraiya kicked him with great force, sending him through the rock wall. Naruto flipped and skid to a stop. "Wow, your strength is insane Ero-sennin, least that new look gives you something"
Jiraiya came flying out of the hole Naruto's body made and roared "Sage art: Super Great Ball Rasengan" Naruto eyes widened as he barely dodged the attack. He cursed not being able to enter sage mode too.
Naruto knew he had to act fast and summoned two shadow clones and all three began going through hand seals. "Earth Release: Mud Bullets" "Fire Release: Phoenix fire barrage" "Wind Release: Wind Bullets" "Collaboration Technique: Flaming Boulders"
Ma quickly went through some hand seals before letting loose a wide wave of water that removed the flames and slowed down the still steaming balls of mud. It was enough for Jiraiya to easily avoid. The three sages decided to do their own collaboration technique. "Sage art: Oil stream" "Sage art: Fire release stream" "Sage art: wind release stream" "Collaboration Technique: Bath of boiling oil"
Naruto eyes widened in shock "Holy shit, he's not joking" He stated as he leapt high to avoid the oil that was incinerating all that it made contact with. It kept travelling heading towards the barrier and some of the spectators screamed. The Hokage, Anbu and some elite Jounin arrived and shunshinned the people away. Quickly turning in the direction of the barrier they began to go through hand seals for powerful water release techniques. It proved unnecessary as the wave smashed into the barrier but still didn't break through it. Hiruzen couldn't believe the strength of it.
Naruto meanwhile was cursing, he felt that technique was a little overkill. He only was teasing the old hermit before. Creating a shadow clone "Water release: Great water shockwave" "Wind release: Vacuum stream"
The cold water wave smashed into the oil causing a massive amount of steam to release which was blown away from the immediate area by Naruto's wind release attack. Landing away from the area he watched Jiraiya cautiously. The glint in the sage's eye was unnerving to say the least. He had to use his collaboration techniques much sooner than expected.
"What the fuck is Uzumaki-san, even Jiraiya-sama's attacks are ridiculous. They could probably take out an army with some of them" Fugaku Uchiha stated with obvious shock written all over his face. All within hearing range turned towards the usually calm Uchiha in shock, the man never showed much emotion and was possibly as stoic as the Hyuga. Many turned to the group of Hyuga nearby and saw the shocked looks there as well before turning back to the fight to see what unbelievable event would happen next. Needless to say no one would deny the strength of either Ninja.
There was a roar that brought everyone's attention back to the fight. The two fighters were engaged in a fierce Taijutsu battle, both using a very odd form that did seem similar in some ways to some of the Taijutsu users in the audience. Well those fighters who were able to keep up anyway. Naruto was launched back by an invisible hit with the Frog kata. "Sage art: Hair Needle barrage" Thousands of white razor sharp needles were quickly descending upon Naruto. Gasping for air after the powerful natural energy hit he quickly began going through hand seals he stated "Earth release: Double Rock Shelter"
A thick slab of rock rose up and surrounded Naruto blocking him completely from view. Another formed a dome around that slab. He quickly sat and entered sage mode not caring if anyone noticed at this point. Those needles would skewer him alive and he doubted even with the amount of chakra he pumped into the wall, that it would be enough. He also pumped some of Jubi's youki just in case. He heard the needles impacting against the dome. He also felt something strange was happening with his eyes. It was stinging even though he was in sage mode.
'Hmmm perhaps that form you had when you tamed Kyuubi wasn't a coincidence Gaki' The giant wolf stated ominously. Ignoring the beast he focused a nice technique he learnt from Kurotsuchi. Now he thought about it she would be around 10 now and they did always get along during his training. Maybe he'd help her out in a few years, she did complain how having a Kekkai Genkai in Iwa had her treated. Shrugging away those thoughts when he felt the outer wall crumble he focused on Jiraiya's position. "Earth Release: Earth Cannon''
Jiraiya heard a rumbling and stopped his assault just as he was launched into the air from the earth beneath him "What the hell? That Gaki lied, he can only find me using that, I can sense he was too. Little -" Ma smacked him and he shut up to focus on Naruto's position as he descended.
Naruto let the natural energy leave him as well as the Youki. Leaving the dome he winced when he saw how close the dome came to failing him. Oddly enough he could see Jiraiya moving slower as if he was floating down instead of falling. Confused he created a clone they went through signs "Water release: Great water dragon projectile" "Lightning release: Lightning stream" "Collaboration Technique: Dragon's vengeance"
The excessively large electrified dragon headed towards Jiraiya at a fast speed. Whether it was the lightning element running through it the man wasn't sure. Taking a note out of Naruto's book not seeing another way out of this one he summoned a clone that threw him away, just before it was swallowed by the dragon. The resulting explosion of water and electricity was an impressive sight to see.
Jiriaya landed huffing as his sage mode had ended. The elders looked at him before shouting out "He's done Naruto-boy. We're leaving" They vanished in a puff. Naruto too was huffing as that last attack took a lot of even him. He had been spamming quite a few attacks too and his eyes had finally stopped twitching. He did a few seals and the barrier fell.
He began walking towards Jiraiya with a proud smirk on his face "I think it's safe to say I proved myself huh Ero-sennin" The man scowled when he looked up but gasped when he saw Naruto's eyes.
"What's wrong?" Jiraiya pointed at him "Your eyes Gaki, create a clone and take a look" Confused Naruto did as suggested and looked at the clone.
"AHHH WHAT THE FUCK" He bellowed when he saw purple eyes with one ring and two tomae on it. 'It might be a by product of having me in you Gaki. Then again the way you mastered the Kyuubi is completely different to other Jinchuuriki. Your chakra cloak form was like the sage of the six paths. That eye looks to be the early stages of his'
'But I don't want eyes like that. It's freakier than the Hyuga.' The Juubi let out a roar or laughter 'Then turn it off Gaki, that Rinnegan user you fought wasn't the real thing which is why he couldn't turn it off. I was with the sage for years. I know this for a fact'
Naruto began to panic but tried to do as the Jubi suggested. He just to shut off the flow of chakra to his eyes, the toads taught him this during sage training when he freaked out sensing everything within a mile. The clone let out a sigh of relief "It's gone boss" It then dispelled.
"So Gaki... What's with the eyes?" Naruto looked over to Jiraiya just as the Hokage and practically everyone began to make their way over. Naruto rubbed the back of his neck and got a sheepish grin "I apparently unlocked a Kekkai Genkai through the intense battle apparently. I was told it might happen since I became the Jinchuuriki of the Jubi"
The councillors eyes widened in surprise before Homura stated "I think everyone would agree you at the very least deserve the title of Elite Jounin Uzumaki-san. May we see this kekkai Genkai of yours?"
Nodding Naruto channelled Chakra to his eyes and everyone who could see them let out a collective gasp, the Uchiha in particular when they saw the tomae. "Do you know what this Doujutsu is Uzumaki-san?" Danzo asked, he was quite concerned from the display of power he witnessed in the battle, from both shinobi. He was clearly not able to match them in strength and he was certain the same was for his rival. Even if he was to beat his old rival, these two were loyal to Hiruzen from what he knew and would stand against him.
Naruto now looked nervous and looked over at Jiraiya and Hiruzen looking for a way out. When none came he sighed in defeat before he muttered "I think it might be the first stage of the Rinnegan"
The eyes bugged out all around him, a few were quite vocal in their disbelief thinking it only to be a legend. Others had a thoughtful look on their faces. After all it might be a legend, those eyes however did belong to the so called greatest ninja of all time, a shinobi able to use all 5 elements and shake fear in even the Bijuu which is what Naruto had also proven.
"I... see" Was all the Sandaime Hokage stated giving a meaningful look to Jiraiya who looked shell shocked at the information. What are the chances he was destined to train two Rinnegan users? He couldn't get over the fact it looked different to Nagato's, Naruto did say first stage so perhaps the tomae would disappear when a new ring appeared?
Naruko began crying and Naruto rushed over and she kept crying until he realized the eyes must have scared her. Turning them off she stopped and looked at him innocently causing him to sweat drop. Chuckles were heard around, one female Uchiha stated "Our children do the same when they see the sharingan"
Clearing his throat Hiruzen stated "Well I think you have proven you are worthy of the title Elite Jounin, are there any who oppose this decision?"
No one did so with that people began to leave talking in loud statements highlights of the fight they had just witnessed. "Uzumaki-san, we would like you to meet us in the council chamber two weeks from today, we will send out an Anbu to get you on the day" Koharu stated, Naruto was confused by the statement but nodded.
Once everyone but Naruto, Anko, Jiraiya, Hiruzen and of course Naruko left, Hiruzen stated "Jiraiya-kun, I never realized you had become that strong. You could easily take my place as Hokage"
Before the sage could protest Naruto spoke "That can't happen, at least not now. We need someone trustworthy gathering intel outside Konoha, also keep Naruko-chan and my... relations under wraps. There is also the dire need to keep an eye on someone's movements"
Anko eyes narrowed as even without directly stating the name she knew who her senpai was speaking of. Hiruzen nodded at the fact "Also I'm hardly trustworthy enough to be made Kage, Kami, even 10 years from now I might not be. I can also be used in more dangerous missions in the future"
With a sigh knowing that Naruto was raising valid points all round he conceded. "Very well, you are correct Naruto-kun. I must say I am shocked at your level of skill. At 18 it is unheard of for someone so young to show such promise. Especially considering you didn't use your youki"
Naruto chuckled lightly and Jiraiya shouted "LIES, he did you it. Don't you try to deny it Gaki. You hit me with that attack even though you couldn't see me"
Naruto didn't confirm nor deny the claim and the old Hokage chuckled, before calling his Anbu and shunshined away. "Alright guys. Now to take care of that hickey"
Anko beamed as they shunshined back to the now Uzumaki residence. Walking to the living room Naruto created a clone to explain what was likely to happen to Anko. Meanwhile Naruto went to the basement with Jiraiya to go over all the notes and theories they had come up with 18 years from now. Over the next week they discussed the curse mark in great detail. Jiraiya was surprised to hear what the source of the curse mark actually was. Also to find what could happen to a person with a fully functional one.
When he got to removing it the process got a lot more technical. The information they had gathered in the future was based on the completed curse mark. Anko however had the prototype and was very lucky to even be alive from what they knew of some of the other cases. This made the removal difficult as they weren't entirely sure if it was applied with the same method and purpose as the completed version.
After some time pondering it back and forth, the Jubi was actually a big help since it had the memories of the Hachibi, so was able to give more detailed information then what Killer Bee had told him. The Bijuu had photographic memory so they were able to recreate the documents after a few hours and go much more in depth in it. What they found was interesting, apparently the part of Ocochimaru in the seal was tied into the mark itself. So to get rid of the seal all they had to do was remove the tainted soul.
The problem came through how to remove it. The easiest way would be transferring it to something else, this is a problem though as it was acting like a parasite on Anko's chakra. If they were to remove it, there is a chance it could damage her chakra coils permanently if not possibly even killing her.
After a few more hours past they decided if her chakra was sealed with the Five elements seal the taint wouldn't be able to leech off her coils. Then it would just be a simple method of transferring it into a scroll.
"Anko-chan, are you sure you want to do this? We don't know for sure this will work" Naruto asked her seriously at the end of the week. Kurenai had insisted on being there for the procedure. Rin was looking after Naruko. Anko looked up with pure confidence radiating in her eyes. It was more than any words could state and Naruto nodded to Jiraiya "Gogyo Fuin" He stated before slamming his hand into her stomach. She gasped out before fainting from the pain and sudden loss of chakra in her system.
They left her for an hour to make sure the taint had no access to her chakra before proceeding. Naruto cursed when he realized she was still not wearing anything under her top. She was even worse younger then she was older in his opinion with her perverted ways. None the less he drew the seals around the curse seal. That unfortunately for the Jinchuuriki happened to be part of her left breast. Kurenai was growling when she saw him doing it but Jiraiya told her sternly it was necessary.
Once done he had Jiraiya look over his drawings and was shocked that not one perverted giggle had left him the entire time. Obviously the seriousness of the situation kept him from doing his usual mannerisms. That and even now Kurenai's skill in Genjutsu was impressive, especially her Anti pervert ones. Nodding his head after Jiraiya confirmed it all looked good he went through a long set of hand seals, placed one hand on the curse seal and the other on the scroll that had a similar seal array but a blank centre.
"Fuin" His hand on Anko glowed and Anko's eyes shot open and she began screaming and thrashing about. Jiraiya had expected this might happen and held her down with Kurenai's help. The seal drawn around the curse mark shrunk to form a ring around it. It then glowed like Naruto's hand before vanishing completely, Naruto's other hand began to glow before a Kanji for taint appeared on the scroll.
"Done" Naruto said as he removed his hands and smiled at the unblemished skin he was now seeing. Jiriaya released the five element seal and Anko immediately tried to stand. It was obviously difficult and Naruto helped her up while trying to keep the shirt he had covered her up with after drawing the seal. Walking over to the mirror she gasped when she saw the mark that haunted her dreams was gone. Crying she spun around and clutched onto Naruto saying "Thank you" repeatedly.
Naruto merely ruffled her hair unsure of what exactly to do. Jiraiya now that everything had worked out began giggling like Naruto had expected earlier. He sent him a scowl and Jiraiya whispered out loudly "You should have seen his blush Anko-chan"
The girl pulled back and let out a victorious grin "Did you like what you saw Senpai?" In pulling back the shirt dropped and he turned red before looking down instinctively. His eyes immediately looked to Kurenai who had narrowed eyes "Anko-chan don't provoke him. Naruto-san don't fall for the obvious tricks. And you can stop that giggling right... What are you doing?"
Jiraiya who had his notepad out let out an audible gulp "Gaki, I'm leaving Konoha, I heard word on a lead and I have to follow it. Plus some ideas for the next icha icha, I'll try to visit whenever I'm back in town. Later" He shunshined out as soon as he saw Kurenai put the pieces together and was flying through hand seals. She let out a roar and Naruto muttered quietly "Why is she so scary?" Kurenai spun around to face him and he gulped "I'll be out back" Before leaving the same way as his former sensei.
The next week passed without much happening, he had begun by finding out their elemental affinities. Rin had Earth, Anko had Fire and Kurenai's didn't do anything at first. After trying to put a lot more chakra into it the paper slightly crinkled showing a very weak lightning affinity. 'Well that would explain her not using elemental attacks in the future. She doesn't actually have a strong affinity to any, plus lightning is more of a close range affinity too'
Naruto of course new some people didn't have an obvious primary affinity like Tsunade who focused on other areas. The Hyuga focused too much on their taijutsu rather than ninjutsu or genjutsu. Gai despite having a strong fire affinity never used ninjutsu. But he thought it would be a good idea to teach Kurenai something other than just Genjutsu, he could see why it took her another 12 years to become good enough with it to earn a Jounin status.
He had each of the girls practicing weak jutsu with his clones watching them and giving advice when he went to the meeting with the council. He shunshined directly to the tower and walked towards the council chambers. "Ahh perfect timing Uzumaki-san, we were about to send for you. Now do you know why you were called here?" Homura asked curiously.
Naruto shook his head as he honestly had no clue what they would want with him considering he was still on probation. Hiruzen got a small smirk on his face that had the Jinchuuriki tense up slightly. Some of the others saw this action and chuckled lightly.
"We called you here as the fact you have joined Konoha, your sheer strength. The fact you wield a Kekkai Genkai, that may pass on to your daughter and other children you may have. As well as the Uzumaki clan being former allies to our village, we wish for you to join the council once your probation ends as the head of the Uzumaki clan. Do you accept Uzumaki-san" Koharu stated calmly.
Naruto's eyes bugged out in shock at being asked such a thing 'Hey wolfie, can Naruko get it or did I get it from you?' The Jubi snorted, well Naruto thought it was a snort 'Possibly, even though that tablet apparently states I gave the Sage those eyes, that isn't the case. So I guess it is possible for the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki yes. It might only activate under certain conditions like the sharingan. As I said your Kyuubi mastered form was much like the sage' "Uh, you all agree to this?" One by one each face he turned to nodded. Even Danzo did which shocked him. "Uh, sure I guess. It would be an honour to sit on the council with you guys"
Many looked quite pleased while the other half held neutral gazes. Shrugging Naruto stated "Uh is that all?" Hiruzen looked sternly at Naruto a moment "Jiraiya-kun informed me that the two of you discovered a method to remove the curse seal from Anko Mitarashi. How did you come up with the method, Jiraiya did not delve into the details"
Meanwhile the rest of the council seemed surprised at the words. The foolish civilians thought the seal made her a slave ready to betray them all at the instant her master orders her. Thus the treatment they gave the girl. The others simply thought it was not possible as the combined efforts of the Sandaime, Yondaime and Jiraiya could not find a method to remove it.
Naruto was toying with the idea of refusing to answer but he could see how that would lead to them thinking he might be in league with Orochimaru somehow. With a sigh he stated "Basically we deduced what the seal was and did. It seemed to affect her chakra coils so that suggested it fed on chakra or acted somewhat like a parasite leeching off it. After that I asked Jiraiya of the effects you saw before you sealed off the effects. It appeared that a piece of Orochimaru-baka or at least his will was in the seal itself."
The civilians muttered something but Naruto ignored them for the moment "If she were to activate the seal, Orochimaru could theoretically act as a little voice in the back of her mind. Guiding her to take a certain action like returning to him for example. Thankfully Anko-chan is smarter and more strong willed to succumb to the little voice and ignored it completely. That shows her strength of character."
This got mutterings all around. "Anyway basically we theorized that if we were to seal off her chakra the taint could potentially be removed. The taint is directly linked with the seal so removing that would remove the seal."
Naruto looked down as if pondering his next thoughts "Honestly we weren't sure if this would work, if it didn't it could have damaged her coils permanently or even resulted in her death, thankfully we were right and I was able to move the seal to a scroll and had it properly disposed of."
Danzo looked up and met Naruto's eye "Why destroy it when it could be studied?"
Naruto looked at the old war hawk like he was an idiot "Looking for a way to impose your will on others Shimura-san? Such knowledge should be treated as kinjutsu as far as I'm concerned. Influencing someone in such a way is sick and if I ever meet that snake bastard I'll show him just what I think of his child obsessed like ways. Yes Hokage-jiji, I've heard of some of what that bastard has done in the past"
The old Hokage looked down in sadness knowing full well how sick and disturbed his former favourite pupil had become. Just where did he go so wrong, was it the wars that were fought? The constant death that made him so cruel and sadistic? He honestly wasn't sure what happened to that sweet innocent child he had once known and taught the ways of the shinobi.
"Very well Naruto-kun, that is all we needed to discuss. Thank you for your service to Anko-chan." Naruto bowed before shunshining out and back to his house. Where he saw the girls hadn't made much progress. He chuckled before going over and giving them a hand where he could.
