Puppet Wielding Alchemist

I only own my stories

Naruto Uzumaki the unknown child of kushina and sasori, switched with the child of minato during the sealing and retaken by orochimaru afterwards.

Kept by orchimaru as a soldier after finding out he was incapable of performing justu, it was his luck that he was capable of chakra manipulation allowing him to use the chakra scalpel and other such skills.

Thanks to his father's, sasori, genes he has impeccable chakra control and thanks to his stepfather, minato, he has large chakra reserves.

Orochimaru though impressed by the results given so far, has become bored with naruto's progress so instructing his most skilled shinobi he showed them a ritual of a long forgotten time.

So taking naruto in the night and laying him into a circle they began channeling mass amounts of chakra into the circle as it began to light up.

Gate

Naruto stood before a massive gate and watched as it tried to open but the massive chains held together by a padlock kept it shut.

Naruto remembering his leassons on the use of chakra strings began using them to reach inside the lock and configure its insides until a loud click resounded in the area.

The doors slid open and several arms reached out to grab naruto but stopped a bit away from him.

"So this is the one who reopens the gate… interesting, so much power for one so young. Tell me child do you know who I am" asked a figure stepping out of the gate

"No, I am only here for the power of the ancients" said naruto with dead eyes

"How much of this power are you seeking child" asked truth

"All of it, that is why I am here to claim all the power of the ancients" said naruto staring at truth

"That is a tall order, are you willing to pay the price" asked truth

"What price" asked naruto

"Why everything in this world is held together by the laws of equivalent exchange, so what are you willing to give in exchange for such power" asked truth still grinning

"If this is for equivalent exchange then how much do you think your freedom is worth" asked naruto

"Everything, even my position as truth" said truth

"Then I will take it, as that is what I have done you must pay something of equal value, that is equivalent exchange" said naruto before the truth began laughing

"Funny how me and my brother locked this gate but then when we die we became the new truth and gate, that is fine by me take the knowledge, and the power but destroy this gate so no other shall wield it" said the figure.

A nod was his response before naruto was pulled inside and kept inside for what felt like months but it was only moments, millions of memories and all kinds of lost knowledge flowed into his mind and he passed out.

Orochimaru's base

Naruto awoke and his eyes that were once dead and emotionless were now filled with a calculative look that few could claim to have.

Hearing a noise naruto turned to see orochimaru coming towards him clapping his hands.

"Nicely done naruto-kun, now what did you learn" asked orochimaru

"That I can be free, that I don't have to listen to you, and finally that I have paid you back in full" said naruto before he clapped his hands and an explosion blasted through the base and naruto took off through the halls heading to his puppet storage the wooden ones anyways, he wouldn't be able to get his organic ones, as orochimaru kept them on him always in case of this situation.

Naruto made it to his puppets only to see three that were there and his scroll that had some parts in it with his tools.

Grabbing them and sealing them he took off transmuting through the walls of the base and making his way to freedom.

He was almost there until he was encountered by a few of orochimaru's sound ninja.

Using his chakra strings he held them in place while he ran by and after passing them he snapped his fingers and watched a line of fire struck the shinobi before they could give chase.

Naruto transmuted through the last wall before closing it up and transmuted a long series of tunnels that started creating a maze and then he escaped but wound up in a nice little place called the mizu no kuni rebellion faction grave yard.

Smirking at his luck he dug up some of the corpses and repaired them using bio alchemy he would later turn them into his puppets but he had to get to konoha where his mother was, he had no doubt in his mind that she would accept him. After all he was her son so she would love him.

With these thoughts he began using his base knowledge of alchemy and the technology of ancient times to transmute a rough looking vehicle and activated before he was blown up by some scouting crew for the rebellion side.

He laid there watching as his insides healed themselves and went back to normal before he got up and turned a narrowed eye to the one who attacked him.

"What the hell is your problem you asshole, you coulda killed me" yelled naruto looking at his assailant with a twitching eyebrow.

"A shame I didn't, now why are you here" asked the assailant

"I was escaping orochimaru but you attacked me and now I got to get running before he catches me" said naruto about to turn and run but found his path blocked by his assailant

"Your not going anywhere until you tell me what that strange thing was" said the assailant forming hansigns.

"Sorry but I got to go" so without further ado naruto snapped his fingers creating a sulfuric gas that was almost nontoxic and ran.

Naruto took off and used a rapid transmutation to form a two wheeled vehicle that he knew as a motorcycle and with that he was off leaving a pissed off shinobi behind cursing about blonde bastards and their weird powers.

Naruto meanwhile was riding as fast as he could to konoha he really wanted to meet his mother.

He kept going until the motorcycle ran out of fuel before deconstructing it back to its base elements and continuing on foot.

It took him several days to get there but when he did he couldn't have been happier.

Stepping up to the gate he was met by the eternal gate guards.

"Who are you and what is your business in konoha" asked kotetsu

"I am naruto uzumaki and I am here to meet my mother" said naruto with excitement written all over his face.

Kotetsu looked skeptical but let him in after having a anbu tail him and take him to the hokage's office.

It didn't take long until naruto was there and now he was nervous taking a breath he entered.

Hokage Office

Naruto stepped in only to see a blonde man doing his paper work.

"What the hell, I thought we were going to see my mother" said naruto giving a pointed glare to the anbu who put his hands up defensively

"Who might you be" asked minato in a kind voice

"I am naruto uzumaki" said naruto getting wide eyes from minato

"I take it you are here to see kushina or join the village" said minato with a smile

"I am here to see kushina and maybe join the village" said naruto with excitement in his eyes

"Alright hold on and let me send for her" said minato

Minato signaled for an anbu to find kushina and bring her to his office.

"So tell me why do you want to meet kushina, and what shinobi arts do you know" asked minato

"She is my mom, and I am a puppeteer like my father" said naruto with the brightest smile he had ever shown

Minato for his part merely frowned at naruto's claim.

He was about to refute the claim but kushina entered and naruto instantly went one hundred percent giving a million giga watt smile.

"You Mina-kun" said kushina

"Yes, this boy here claims that you are his mother, but he doesn't seem to realize it is not possible" said minato getting a glare from naruto

"Hey you can kiss my grits you blonde headed milk toothed sissy, dattebayo" said naruto blushing at his verbal tick

Now minato was a bit doubtful of his earlier question because that was just too similar to kushina.

"Would you like to do a dna test" said minato

"Yes please, so mom what is your favorite branch of shinobi arts" said naruto grinning brightly at kushina who was just staring at naruto like he was a stranger.

"I only have one child" said kushina

"So I don't have a brother or sister" said naruto a little depressedly

"No, I have a child but you are not her" said kushina

"Yes I am, do the test and it will prove it and then you will have to accept it" said naruto

"Fine but don't get your hopes up" said kushina

It was a few minutes before tsunade came in and began running blood diagnostics and the conclusion made her widen her eyes.

"Well congratulations, it's a boy" said tsunade staring at kushina

Kushina for her part was shocked.

"That's not possible, minato is the only one I have ever done that with, he cant be my child" said kushina refusing to believe the test.

Now naruto for his part never lost his smile but you could see the light die in his eyes as his smile grew smaller and faker.

"I am your son, orohimaru made me specifically because you were the previous jinchuriki then used the dna from sasori-tou san to give perfect chakra control but this had a side effect of removing my use of jutsu but I can still manipulate chakra into a versatile and deadly weapon" said naruto now without his previous smile and bitterness in his eyes.

Everyone stared before minato spoke up.

"Why didn't you just say that before" asked minato while kushina still looked skeptical and a little nervous.

"Because I thought she would just accept it and be as happy as me" said naruto now sporting a cold calculative look that was in all honesty intimidating.

"Well if you would like you could still come and live with us and even become a shinobi if you like, I would be happy to have a son, biological or not" said minato

"No, I will be fine but I will visit and learn fuinjutsu, I would like to at least make my ancestors proud by learning their art and advancing it, I don't want to be a shinobi I would rather perfect my arts and chakra manipulation and my science. Now if you will excuse me I have to go and find a nice little clearing in the woods to begin construction of my house" said naruto walking out and slamming the door very hard.

"You know kushina when I was a kid growing up, I always wished I had parents or at least knew where they were, but I couldn't even imagine what it would be like to meet your parent just to learn they didn't want you" said minato

Now tsunade looked guilty.

"Minato, you do have parents and I know who they are and where they are" said tsunade looking at the ground.

Now minato looked shocked and hopeful.

"Who are they" asked minato

"Well you father is jaraiya" said tsunade getting a shocked look from minato

"And my mother" asked minato

"Your looking at her" said tsunade before she saw a flash and was embraced.

"Its better late than never, thank you for telling me but why did you leave me" asked minato

"I couldn't raise a kid and jaraiya bless his heart wasn't here enough to look after you that was why when you graduated he took you on as his apprentice, he wanted to make up for lost time but he couldn't manage the courage to tell you after everything you went through" said tsunade as she embraced minato and cried.

That lasted awhile before kushina left.

With naruto

Naruto had found his clearing and used alchemy to make a simple shack that opened into an underground training area and workshop.

This is where naruto spend most of his time ignoring all offers and guests for two months.

Two months Later

Naruto had begun growing low on ideas for his puppets and nothing was coming to mind whenever he tried to think of new ways to improve his puppets.

He sat at his desk looking at his design sheet holding a pencil but nothing was coming to him, at least until he remembered that he hadn't gone to get lesson's on fuinjutsu.

So standing up and popping his back he began moving towards the hokage's office.

It was on his way there that he actually ran into minato and began a conversation with him.

"Hey naruto, how are you doing I thought you left the village because I hadn't seen you in so long" said minato with a smile

"Actually I was looking for you, I was hoping to learn some more advanced fuinjutsu" said naruto

Minato for his part smiled but then frowned remembering his current situation.

"I am kind of busy looking for a gift for my daughter at the moment she just graduated from the academy but I can't find the perfect gift" said minato

Naruto grit his teeth at hearing about his half-sister, but began thinking of a way to just get his lessons over with.

"What if I helped, tell me what she likes and what kind of gift your looking for" said naruto

"Well she likes kenjutsu but I can't find a sword that is good enough" said minato

Naruto stared for a second before he clapped his hands together and placed them on the ground and created a sword that was quite heavy but also very dense, it was slightly blue in color and had mini designs going along the blade.

"Now in return just give me the scrolls I need to perfect my fuinjutsu" said naruto

"Yeah but come with me to give it to her" said minato flashing naruto to his home where there was a party starting.

Minato guided naruto around showing the layout of his house until it was time to give his daughter her presents.

Everyone had given her a present except minato and naruto, minato stepped forward and gave her the sword which she absolutely adored but then turned an expecting look to naruto

When he did nothing she gained an irritated look.

"Well" she said impatiently

"Well what" said naruto starting grow annoyed

"Where is my gift" she demanded

"Why would I give you a gift, I don't even know let alone give two fucks about your graduation" said naruto quite plainly getting gasps from everyone

"Then why are you here" she asked angrily

"For my end of the deal" naruto said turning to minato

"Oh right almost forgot, here you go naruto. This should get you up to master level in no time" said minato handing over a large scroll

"Thanks minato- oji" said naruto feeling that minato had earned the suffix.

As he was going to leave though he ducked under a wild fist, acting on his instincts he connected chakra strings to his opponent to keep them from moving it only took one now but you could never be too careful.

Looking at who attacked he wasn't that surprised to see the girl glaring at him.

"Now why would you do that, I could have killed you" said naruto

The girl just glared at naruto.

"Where do you think your going with uzumaki clan secrets" demanded the girl

"Kiss my gritz bitch I am an Uzumaki or is my red ass hair not enough proof for that, and do you think he would've given theses to me otherwise. How did you graduate without common sense, that is almost mandatory when becoming a shinobi" said naruto looking at her like she was just an annoyance

"Release me, I am mito Uzumaki and jinchuriki of the nine tailed fox I refuse to be treated like this" said mito glaring

"First of all why would I let you go just because of your name, and second I'm the jinchuriki for the nine tailed fox" naruto said and to prove it he channeled the foxes chakra gaining a look of shock from minato and mito along with the other guests.

"Why do you have the fox" asked minato

"Orochimaru switched me your spoiled little brat here and thank god he took me back or else I would've been like her" said naruto getting an angry growl from mito

"Now if you will excuse me, I have work to do" said naruto releasing mito and about to start walking when he had to doge the sword he made.

"Now are you trying to kill little ol'me" said naruto

His response was another swing of the katana but this time he caught it and deconstructed it.

"I make you such a great sword and you make me do this, a shame it had so much potential" said naruto as he dodge another attack from mito.

Mito then began channeling chakra into her palm and charged at naruto using a rasengan, he dodged it then using his new technique the chakra sword he snipped the tendons at the back of her knees causing her to fall to the ground.

"Now she needs to be healed before lasting damage is done, now this time for real good bye" it was unfortunate he was then bound by chakra chains.

"What the hell do you think you're doing to my child you little monster" said kushina in a deadly tone

Now naruto for his part hid the hurt he felt before he felt rage, so using his alchemy he disassembled her chains and struck her with a super powered fist that sent her flying.

"Now you have both just attacked a civilian" said naruto gaining looks of shock from all present except minato who just nodded grimly

"Naruto, I am sorry for their actions but I beg you not to press charges" said minato

"Keep them away from me then and start sliding me missions and it is a done deal, but don't expect me to ever plan on saving their lives, and I have decided that maybe accepting her name was a mistake but I will keep it just so I can get the rest of the uzumaki techniques which I will be asking for now" said naruto with minato nodding along in resignation

After acquiring the techniques naruto merely left without saying a word and kushina watched with gritted teeth, and a painful feeling in her chest when she heard him say that he regrets taking her name.

Naruto stayed away for a long time after that only seen when he was asking minato for tips or a new style to fight with.

Naruto had long since gone as far as he could with his puppetry for the time being his alchemy and other sciences were now down pact and he even recreated some of the weapons from back then.

It wasn't until minato sent for naruto and seeing as how naruto actually liked minato he answered the summons.

Hokage Office

Arriving in the office naruto was met with a distraught minato and a worried looking kushina.

"Whats wrong minato- oji" asked naruto

"Naruto I know that you said to never expect you to save her life but I can't afford to send anyone else, I need you to go and back up mito and her team against zabuza momochi and his accomplice, please do this for me naruto" said minato with desperation in his voice

"All you had to do was ask, after all me and you it may not be blood but we are family" said naruto getting a shocked look from minato

Naruto jumped out of the window and went to the gates and began his trip to nami no kuni.

Nami no kuni

Naurto arrived at the house to see kakashi in bed and one member wounded and the final two were sitting at the table on edge.

"Pathetic" naruto spat off at seeing the last two genin

Turning to look at him naruto could see it was sasuki uchiha and saia shimura.

Naruto walked forward and gave a chakra pill to kakshi which got him up and walking again then he walked towards mito and used his chakra strings to jump start her healing which didn't take long to do as she was soon wide awake and staring at naruto healing her.

Sasuki and Saia seeing this felt inferior watching his actions, within ten minutes he had put the team back at full capacity.

What he did next shocked all of them as he tossed mito off the couch then claimed it as his own and went to sleep.

Mito felt her eye start twitching.

Kakashi started eye smiling and called his genin to train them.

Naruto woke up a couple hours later upon smelling food and saw all the genin sitting at the table eating.

Naruto ignored it though and unsealed a table before unsealing some wood and transmuting it into the shape he wanted but then began manually putting compartments into it and continued to do the same until he was working on the head, by this point they had all finished eating and were now watching him work.

Naruto didn't care though as he finished the head and began installing tools and painting seals onto the puppet before he began adding the final features and adding his signature which was an extremely complicated alchemical circle.

Then he began connecting the pieces until he had was a particularly average looking puppet but when the chakra string connected to the puppet it changed and became fairly demonic in appearance which made the viewers jump at the sudden change.

"How did you do that" asked inari fully impressed.

"None of your business" said naruto walking outside to test his puppet.

The konoha ninja were a little bit surprised at the cold shoulder but followed none the less.

"Why are you all following me, kakashi you need to be training these genin not trying to watch me, as for you girls start training" said naruto

Now kakashi and his team seemed affronted by the statement thus felt the need to put him in his place.

"How about a little wager then, you will spar with each of my genin, if you win we will let you be, if we win you have to show us a trick" said kakashi

"Very well, but for secrecy sake, sharingan seal" said naruto sealing the copying abilities of the sharingan

"Now you wont be copying me" said naruto as he took a stance after sealing his puppet.

"Now why aren't you going to use a puppet" asked kakashi

"Not needed and this will show you how far below me they really are" said naruto as he stayed in his stance.

Sasuki stepped forward so she could fight first and show this peasant the power of an uchiha.

Sasuki charged forward only to be met with a chop to the neck.

"Next" said naruto as he tossed sasuki to the side.

Next saia walked forward and began drawing as fast as she could until she froze.

She tried moving but couldn't she went wide eyed as she watched naruto walk closer to her.

"You know now that I can get a good look at you, you're kinda cute" was all naruto said before he knocked her out as well.

Mito stepped forward and unsheathed her sword and charged in with a stab at his chest.

Naruto dodged then disarmed her while connecting chakra strings to the blade.

Mito ignored the loss of her weapon and began using taijutsu where she found she was terribly outmatched when a fist knocked her to the ground and before she could get back up she found her own blade to her throat.

"I win" said naruto before he turned around began walking away only to be met with a sword going through his chest.

This shocked kakashi to the core, as he watched his sensei's daughter ignore his sensei's biggest rule.

Sasuki now awake was wide eyed and angry that mito killed him.

Saia meanwhile was staring in disbelief.

Mito herself was smiling at her victory over naruto or so she thought.

"Interesting I am immortal" said naruto as he walked until the sword was out of his body.

He turned around shortly after and gave mito a look that would haunt her for several nights.

Naruto then walked to mito and used bio alchemy to make his muscles incredibly dense, he pulled his fist back and smashed mito over the head and watched her leave and crater in the ground.

"Damn stupid girl bloodying up one of my only good shirts because she is a sore loser." Naruto said as he began walking to the house.

"Wait aren't you going to help her" asked kakashi

"Why would I, she just attempted my murder. She can rot in hell for all I care" said naruto never turning to look back at the frantic team.

A few days later naruto was laying on the couch sleeping when he felt something wake him and nestle close to him opening one eye he was mildly amused to see it was saia but then he felt something was off literally.

"Where are your clothes" asked naruto with some pink dusting his cheeks.

"I read in a book a girlfriend will often do this to attract her chosen one" said saia

"But your not my girlfriend" said naruto stil blushing slightly

"In the books I read once the boy had said the same thing you told me he claimed the girl as his woman" said saia

"What books are you reading" asked a very confused naruto

"Icha Icha" said saia

Now naruto was sure she was reading the wrong books but then again who was he to correct her.

"Oh that explains everything" said naruto as he turned his back to her and went to sleep

The next morning

Naruto was glad that saia had the forethought to go back to her bed before everyone else woke up.

He stared impassively as everyone before him went outside to go to the bridge.

The bridge

Naruto stared at the bridge and the mist covering it perfectly aware of what was going on.

(battle just like canon with mito taking naruto's place and saia protecting tazuna)

Just as mito sasuki were about to be pinned with thousands of needles a wall of earth surrounded them in a dome.

"Ara ara, can't have you killing them off like that, minato-oji would be pretty sad with a dead kid and the village would be up in arms over the uchiha. So it is with that I must say that if you want to harm them you will have to go through me" said naruto with an odd sense of determination in his eyes.

Even though naruto said those words, the two girls heard something else entirely, even mito.

Sasuki

"I cant let you hurt the uchiha… because I love her" said Imagination naruto

"I will defend her with my life" said Imagination naruto

Mito

"If you want to harm mito you will have to go through me, even if she tried to kill me. I will defend her with my life" said Imagination naruto

Real world

Naruto charged at haku while unsealing his new puppet and using his alchemy smashed through the mirror holding the hunter nin.

Haku was shot out of the mirror because of his lack of speed in dodging and bounced off the ground.

The earth dome around sasuki and mito broke apart and they saw the ice mirrors were now gone and naruto was now thrashing the masked ninja.

Haku was in a panic he was trying to dodge but it was like he was fighting two opponents at once.

Any whole in naruto's guard was covered by the puppet he was using that would shoot poison or try attaching a string to him, eventually though he was struck with a poison kunai.

"You did pretty well, I would have put you at mid chunin level, a shame you are dead" was the last haku heard before everlasting darkness grasped him.

With haku dead everyone heard the chirping of birds as a lightning covered fist was put though zabuza's chest.

Sealing up haku's body naruto walked over to the dead zabuza's body and sealed the sword and body up.

He was always looking for good materials to make his puppets with.

They then heard clapping and were welcomed with the sight of gato and his goons.

"I am getting tired of this shit, why is this midget even here, come on we just took out his best guy and he expects a few thugs to take us out" naruto was just ranting ignoring the aforementioned midget and was soon over it as he calmed down and a deathly aura that could only be made by a man of science was soon felt on the bridge.

"Yesss, junk puppets, the so called cannon fodder of my puppet forces. I can't wait to make you part of my collection" said naruto with an odd change in his tone of voice

Naruto then unsealed ten puppets, his version of the legendary ten puppets, and each looking as if death himself had created them.

Naruto then twitched his fingers as the ten moved into a circle around the mentioned thugs and clapped their hands and pressed them onto the ground as a giant set of doors was summoned.

"Allow me to show you my power, this is the gate of truth my life force if you will and your souls will now become one with it but don't worry your corpses wont go to waste" said naruto as the gate opened and thousands of black hands surged out of the gate and started ripping souls out of people, and ran in sealing up bodies.

After the sealing up all the bodies kakashi finally saw naruto's eyes.

"Who are you, and what are you doing with naruto's body" asked kakashi

"What are you talking about, I am naruto, just the part he hasn't accepted yet. I am what he will become when he accepts his duties as the guardian of the gate, when he accepts his position as truth. As for now though you may call me truth, naruto is waking up now, tell him that he must defeat me in battle and accept me as a piece of him if he ever wants to reach his full potential, until next time kakashi" said truth naruto

Naruto then collapsed as he started waking up.

"What happened" asked naruto just getting stares

"We will discuss it later" said kakashi

And done, so what do you think crazy and what about truth naruto is he a good guy bad guy or just neutral. And why haven't we heard from kyuubi. And more who will all for naruto. Find out next time and leave reviews please
