Chapter 1

Author's Note: This is a new Naruto fanfic that I just felt I had to write. I read some Naruto x Fem Sasuke fanfics recently and I have to say, they are very well written by SilverKitsune2017. Their pairing has a lot of potential from the post Pein arc. This is my attempt to write one, though this will be after all the troubles of Kaguya and Madara. Fem Sasuke's name would be Yukio Uchiha. Another important thing is that Naruto will have the same powers and abilities that he had in my last oneshot. The story is same until he returns to the village and gets tested for his new abilities but doesn't beat up Sasuke.

Summary: After the battle with Kaguya and Madara, Yukio disappears, breaking Naruto's heart. He goes off on a training trip and returns, stronger beyond anyone's imaginations. During one of his S-rank missions, he accidentally runs into the missing Uchiha.

After coming back to the village and being appointed an Elite Jonin, Naruto had asked Tsunade to hold on to the hat for two more years. Tsunade had protested, but Naruto had explained it to her that he will need some time to build up his reputation. A reputation like no other.

From then on, Tsunade had sent Naruto on nothing lower than A-rank missions, knowing he could easily handle them. Naruto's reputation in Konoha had already risen in just four months after his return due to the fact he had completed five S-ranks in that time. He had also changed his clothing to something much more practical and stylish.

He now wore dark blue ANBU pants, loose until they were wrapped with black tape at the ankles and had an orange lining running on the sides. He also wore ninja shoes [I can't describe them but here's the link: 2017 autumn y-3 black warrior ninja shoes leather y3 high help men's shoes with thick bottom casual shoes tide] instead of the standard ninja sandals.

He also wore a semi armored full sleeves dark blue that also had an orange lining running on the sides with a collar covering half of his neck. It hugs his arms and upper body to show the ripped muscles on his upper body and arms. The new jonin jacket was wore by him [jonin jacket in boruto] along with fingerless gloves with plating on the back of his hand and on the knuckles. The gloves wrap comfortably up to his wrist. He also wears a dark blue coat like his father but has white flames licking at the bottom. A dragon was drawn on the upper back, signifying his status as the Dragon Sage.

When Tsunade had first seen his new appearance, she had fainted. Naruto looked like his father's twin. Well he did before as well, but with the similar clothing, it was hard to not deny that Minato had come back from the dead.

In a year, he had earned himself the nickname of 'Chimei-tekina Senko', literally meaning 'The Lethal Flash'. He was so fast in dealing with his enemies that they could not even catch a blur. He also never played with his enemies, dealing with them with a ruthlessly lethal efficiency. If you are his enemy and see a flash, you are dead. He had even set a new record, of doing the highest number of S-ranks in one year. Twenty five S-ranks was nothing to scoff at, beating his old man's record by three missions.

Naruto was at his residence, relaxing with some meditation when he sensed an ANBU arriving at his door. Hearing the door knock, he got up, grumbling about ANBUs interrupting his relaxation time.

He opened the door and asked, annoyance clearly displayed on his face, "What's the matter now?"

The ANBU involuntarily shivered at the annoyance on the blonde's face. He had clearly interrupted something and now the strongest shinobi in the world was annoyed at him.

He forced down his nervousness and spoke, "Hokage-sama wishes to speak with you quite urgently, Namikaze-sama."

Another thing was ever since his return from his training trip, everyone except his friends started calling him Namikaze-sama. It frankly disgusted him; they hated him first and when his heritage gets revealed they start to kiss the ground he walks on.

Naruto raised an eyebrow in confusion, "Is this about a mission?"

"Not exactly, though she could give you a mission after briefing you", the ANBU replied.

Naruto nodded and said, "Alright, I'll be there in five." The ANBU nodded and vanished in a flicker of leaves.

Naruto dressed up in his mission clothes, supplies enough for an S-rank mission. In the past months, he had gotten so much used to receiving S-ranks on a regular basis that he would automatically resupply himself for an S-rank mission every time. He had even changed the writing at the lower back of his cloak to 'Lethal Flash'.

He teleported himself to outside the door and banged his door open, waking up Tsunade from her nap rather violently. As she laid her eyes on Naruto who was stupidly grinning, she half-heartedly threw the bottle of sake at him.

Naruto simply leaned to the side, the bottle harmlessly passing by his head and shattering behind him. It was always so fun to annoy her.

He turned serious and asked her, "So Baa-chan, why did you call me?"

Tsunade herself turned serious, "Naruto, the council is pressuring me to activate the Clan Restoration Act on you."

Naruto scowled, "You can tell those disgusting power hungry bastards to fuck off. There's no way I'm gonna take any of them up on their offers of marriage contracts. We both know what they want."

Tsunade knew what Naruto was talking about. Ever since Naruto claimed his inheritance and seats on the council, the civilian council had been pressuring her to activate the CRA in Naruto's case. But she and Naruto knew that the council was after the power behind the Uzumaki and Namikaze clans. They detested how the 'demon brat' was the head of two of the most powerful clans of the Shinobi nations.

Tsunade had put her foot down on the matter along with Naruto that he was not going to become a breeding factory, no matter how much they claimed that they were doing this for his betterment. She would watch out for her son until her dying breath.

The council did back off for some time, but they would mention it now and then. She was, frankly saying, getting tired of it.

Tsunade sighed, "As much as I want to, I can't stop them from expressing their opinion. But you have to resolve this issue quickly, Naruto. I can't hold them back forever."

Naruto adopted a fierce scowl. As much as he hated to admit, there were some things not even the Hokage could do. Ever since he had given a demonstration of his new abilities, the council was shouting for him to take part in CRA. They even had the nerve to 'suggest' that he should 'donate' some of his blood samples so that ninjas with his abilities could be created. What they were actually suggesting that he did not deserve such power and he should be experimented upon and his abilities be given to those the council deemed 'worthy' of the abilities.

Needless to say, he was pissed and furious beyond imagination.

He was so pissed that the whole Shinobi council AND Tsunade had to hold him back, that too with ALL of Tsunade's super strength and Shikamaru's shadow possession Jutsu, from tearing the civilian council apart. They had somewhat succeeded, but could not stop him form sending the council member who had given the suggestion to the hospital, beaten within an inch of his life.

The civilians then tried to call for his arrest on account of attacking a council member, but the Shinobi council and Hokage had viciously reminded them, in no sugar coated terms, of what they had actually suggested and they were the ones who had provoked him. The council had backed off for a while after that, but not for long.

Naruto sighed and said, "I am 21, Baa-chan. I am, as such, a legal adult and as an elite jonin, I answer only to the Hokage. They can only advise you, but you are the one who makes the decisions. They also don't have any power to command a Shinobi. Being an advisory council, they can only advise you. It is you who makes the decisions. You can hold them off."

Tsunade glared at him, "You think I want to deal with them anymore? Anyways, I have a mission for you."

Naruto's face lit up and he asked hopefully, "S-rank?"

Tsunade shook her head, "A-rank. We have received reports of a group of bandits that have been expanding their bases. They have established three bases up till now. The bases are in a triangular position, with each base at a distance of 30 km from each other. You have to destroy all the bases and ensure nothing remains, which includes all the bandits."

Naruto processed this and asked, "In what area are these bases located?"

Tsunade gave him a map and said, "This map has all the information you need. You can go now."

Naruto nodded and just as he was about to leave, Tsunade said, "Remember Naruto, I am only giving you this mission because all the other capable people are busy with their own missions. After this mission you are on an official leave and no buts, this is final", she said as she saw he was about to protest.

Naruto sulked and went out of the window, leaving Tsunade to grumble about disrespectful brats. He decided that after a meal at Ichiraku's, he would leave for his mission.

He went inside and sat down on a stool, "Pops! Two large miso pork ramen!"

Ayame turned and smiled at seeing Naruto, "Naruto-kun! How are you?"

Naruto grinned and replied, "I'm great! Just here for a last meal before departing for an A-rank."

Ayame nodded and started to prepare his order. She initiated a conversation with him while doing so. "So, Naruto-kun, have you made any girlfriends lately?"

Naruto shook his head, "Nah, there's no one right now."

Ayame looked scandalized, "Naruto-kun, you must make a girlfriend soon or you will be left all alone!"

Naruto sighed, "I will, Ayame nee-chan, but only when I find the right girl. Those damn council members want me to marry in their families so they could get a taste of my fortunes."

Ayame nodded, understanding him. Naruto had a lot in his plate from the civilian council. They just could not take a hint to leave him alone.

As Naruto ate his food, he thought of someone he had not seen for a long time, Yukio Uchiha, his best friend. She had vanished after the fourth shinobi war and had not been seen since then, making it four years since he had last seen her.

He sighed, no use thinking of her right now. He would find her when he gets his official leave. He finished his meal and thanked Ayame, departing for his mission in a flash.

XXXXXXXX

The mission was relatively simple, considering what he was capable of now. He scouted a base, found out the number of bandits in a base, layout of the base and then with his knowledge of sealing, he created explosives that would have made Deidara proud of him. He destroyed everything, leaving nothing to salvage. He set his explosives such that all the explosive seal arrays on all the bases needed just one seal to activate. In one night, all the three bases were wiped out simultaneously in huge explosions.

Naruto decided that since the mission was already over, he might as well stay and explore the village and its surroundings. An A-rank mission can last almost a month, but it took him only three days to complete this one.

The village was small and by no means a shinobi village, but the life was peaceful and the people were quite friendly. He explored the various shops and restaurants in the first week and was going to explore the forest next.

As he was walking along a river that flowed in the forest, he sensed six chakra signatures closing in on him. He turned around and faced the bandits who were trying to sneak up on him.

"It's hopeless to try and sneak up on a seasoned shinobi, you know." The bandits were obviously brainless idiots as they still tried to fight him. They readied their weapons and charged. Naruto sighed, he could not catch a break no matter what.

Just as he was about to use his speed to kill them, a single kunai came from his right, whizzing through the air. It cut through the throats of all the bandits in a single motion. He instantly looked in the direction form which the kunai came and saw a hooded figure about a hundred meters from his position. But that was not the only thing that caught his. He also caught an orb of red and a purple one.

'There's only one person in the whole world who has those eyes!' he thought as he gave chase. The figure tried to evade him, but due to his speed and sensing abilities, it was futile.

'I'm not letting you push me away again!' he thought with a growl as in an instant he covered the distance between them and grabbed her out of air. They both fell to the ground but Naruto shielded her with his back. He barely felt anything when he skidded on the ground.

He immediately pinned the person under him, her arms above her head. "Yukio", he whispered, so many emotions in his voice.

XXXXXXXX

Yukio Uchiha had been minding her own business when she came across the bandits' area. After the shinobi war, she had known that she would likely be executed or worse, imprisoned and they would use her as a breeding factory.

So she fled, constantly moving from one place to another to avoid getting captured. So when she happened to come across a blonde cornered by bandits, she decided to rescue him as her good deed of the day. She had no idea it would be her old teammate.

He had given chase as expected, and was surprised when he tackled her with a burst of speed she had not known him to possess. He had pinned her under him, with her arms above her head. "Yukio", he whispered and her heart ached when she heard his voice after so many years, with so many emotions behind it.

The truth was that she had known that her feelings towards Naruto extended beyond the boundaries of friendship. But she had been afraid and had always pushed him away, her heart aching a little more each time she did it.

She suddenly realized their position and an intense blush spread across her face. Naruto had realized the same thing and had quickly got up, pulling her up as well and got a good look at her.

She had not changed her choice of clothing except for a hooded cloak to hide her face. She still wore the same clothes Orochimaru had given her, though now she looked different. She had filled out in all the right places, the hips and chest. She still had her slender body; her stomach was flat and her legs seemed to go on forever. Her hair reached to her shoulder and her face was leaner as well. All in all, she looked beautiful.

Yukio smiled at Naruto and said in a soft voice, "It's been a long time, Naruto." Naruto just stared at her, and just when she was getting worried, he wrapped her in a tight hug.

She was shocked, and was further shocked when she felt Naruto shaking. He was sobbing while holding her like she was a lifeline. She wrapped her arms around him as well, enjoying the feeling and it was then she realized that Naruto was now a good deal taller than her, at least by 8 inches.

She stroked his back and whispered in his ear, "Shhhhhh…. it's ok. You finally found me, Naruto."

Naruto pulled back and hastily wiped his tears, "I-I-I-I wasn't c-c-c-crying. Just got something in my eye." Yukio laughed, and god it was the most melodious sound he had heard in almost five years.

"Sure you weren't", she slyly smirked. She asked him, "What are you doing here?"

Naruto brightened up considerably, "Oh! It's nothing, just here for an A-rank mission is all. What about you?"

Yukio shrugged, seeing no harm in telling him, "I'm currently living here."

Naruto did not miss when she said 'currently', "You are constantly moving so as to avoid capture, aren't you?"

She nodded, "And you have grown smarter, Naruto." She then had an idea, "Where are you staying?"

Naruto shrugged, "Nowhere at the moment. I just improvise." Yukio smiled, "Would you like to stay with me until your mission is completed?"

Naruto was shocked and also a little touched that she would make such an offer to him. A moment later he smiled and said, "Lead the way."

Author's note: Hey guys! This is the first time I'm writing a romance so please review and if you can, please give tips so as to improve my works and don't forget to review. Laters!

P.S: I almost forgot! For knowing what Yukio Uchiha looks like, search for 'genderbent Naruto and Sasuke' only the face is much leaner and sharper and hair is a bit longer.
