Naruto: The Dragon Sage


Background Knowledge:

Obito survived the Kanabi Bridge mission, allowing the then team 7 to fully develop into a team that rivaled the Legendary Sanin in teamwork, but outclassed them in terms of raw power. This means that Obito never gained his Mangekyo Sharingan, the Akastuki was never formed. Obito became the legendary copy ninja of Konoha. Kakashi developed a powerful affinity for water and later discovered his Kekkei Genkai (Storm Release) which allowed him to obtain the title Storm Sage, fabled for his ability to change the weather. Rin surpassed her predecessor in Tsunade Senju in the medical field, Rin accidentally combined her Yang release with her Fire release to create a new release, that anybody with the required chakra natures could use. This was called Radiation release. This team 7 became known as the "Konoha no yari" (Spears of Konoha).

The Amegakure orphans overthrew Hanzo and became the beloved rulers of Amegakure, with Yahiko as their leader. This allowed Amekagure and Konohagakure to become strong allies, however Nagato still obtained his Rinnegan.

Due to the relations between these two villages Dan and Nawaki were brought back to life via the Rinne Rebirth technique used by Nagato. Nawaki activated his wood release becoming the second person in history to use this powerful Kekkei Genkai. Nawaki became followed in his grandfather's footsteps and became a sage allowing to claim the title "Tree Sage" or "Ki Sennin".

Fukagu Uchiha activated his Mangekyo Sharingan in the third ninja war, boasting a yellow susano and control over Ametarasu. With these two techquies, Fukagu managed to defeat the 8 tailed junchuriki in Killer B, the bingo books started to call him the biju slayer. Fukagu grew closer to the village, eventually becoming friends with Minato Namekazi, one of the favoured Hokage Candidates. Any thought of a coup never existed in the Uchiha clan.

However, when the light shines brightest, the shadows are also bigger. Orochimaru followed a dark path, making him an SS-Class missing ninja. Danzo became so blind in his pursuit of power he allowed the said snake to place a curse mark on him, making him Orochimaru's pawn, as well as all of ROOT.

Iwagakure became more hateful of Konohagakure, investing more time into it's younger shinobi to produce 4 S-Class Ninja.

Kumogakure's Third Raikage survived the Jashin cultists allowing his son A to remain as a join, now Kumo had 3 S-Class Ninja (The third being killer B).

Sunagakure adapted to the period of peace, the Third Kazekage and Sasori never fought, instead they allowed Sasori to teach puppetry to more young ninja (AN:I believe this is why Sasori killed the Third Kazekage, for not allowing him to teach the art of puppetry to more people), this allowed Pakura of the scorch release to live, Rasa the soon to be named fourth Kazekage still sealed the Ichibi inside his son Garra, though the Third Kazekage became what the Third Hokage would become to Naruto, a surrogate grandfather.

Kirigakure never went into civil war, Yagura is now a loved Mizukage with Mei Terumi being his dearest friend. Yagura is a jinchuriki of the three tails, the seven swordsmen of the mist never disbanded, this allowed Zabuza to become an S-Rank Ninja. Kisame is still a bloodthirsty S-Rank beast, but fears Yagura enough that he is kept in check.

Konohagakure boasts the most S-Ranked ninja out of all villages. The current Hokage Hiruzen Saurtobi. The Candidates for the fourth Hokage, Nawaki Senju, Minato Namekazi and Obito Uchiha. Fukagu Uchiha, Tsunade Senju, Rin Norha, Kakashi Hatake are all jonin in the village hidden in the leaves. The recently retired Kushina Uzumaki was dubbed "Konoha's Red Blade of Death" for her kenjutsu mastery and due to her chakra chains and her tenant she became a low ranked S-Class ninja. Konoha has the smallest military force out of all the big villages, limited to personal of 30,000 ninja.

The world is at peace, for the moment, the only strong alliance is between Amegakure, Konohagaukre and Takigakure. Anything could change… in a flash.


Present Day:

Naruto is aged 6 (Same as all the Rookie 12).

Naruto is walking down the streets of Konoha, many people smiling at him and his two younger siblings Mito, who looked much like their mother, except for her blue eyes and Sakumo who had half red on his left and half yellow hair on his right (AN: Think of Todoroki but with yellow instead of white) with purple eyes, both were the jinchuriki of the nine tailed fox. During birth Kushina delivered triplets, two of which absorbed their respective half of the fox's chakra, Mito having the Yang (Light) and Sakumo having the Yin (Dark). For all accounts Naruto was an average child, well except his Kage level reserves. The three were on their way to the Uchiha compound but stopped when they found a sign, none of them could read the little kanji so they asked a nearby civilian, the sign said.

Announcement from the Hokage

As some of you know I am getting quite old, my time in the hat has seen two ninja wars, and I never wish to see another, as good as some say I am, at political relations I believe there would be one better person for the job of Leaf Village Representative… Minato Namekazi

On July the 25th the Fourth Hokage Minato Namekazi will be sworn in on top of the Hokage Mansion

Hiruzen Sarutobi, The Third Hokage

"Thank you, mister," Sakumo said with a smile on his face

"So Tou-chan is gonna be Hokage eh? Well I guess I'll have to be the fifth then!" Naruto exclaimed

"Shut up you baka! You couldn't beat me or Sakumo-nii with our hands tied behind your back" Mito fired

"Psst just caus you guys get special training from Tou-chan and Kaa-Chan doesn't mean you can beat me!" Naruto shouted with a flame in his eye.

It was no secret to anyone who visited the Namekazi Household, weather it was intentional or not Minato and Kushina usually spent more time training the other two younglings due to their tenants. Naruto did train, but by himself. Whenever the house got visitors Naruto's parents usually asked for them to help train the younger two. Most did except for two, Kakashi Hatake and Shisui Uchiha. The said Uchiha had taken a liking to the 'outcast' of the family. Shusui was considered a prodigy, even by Uchiha standards. The boy was 8 years old and already a chunin and was on his way to ANBU. Shisui rarely trained the boy, rather he spent time with him and in some sense became his adopted brother or best friend. Kakashi Hatake was a weird fellow, he saw his rival Miato guy begin to take interest in a boy around Naruto's age, Kakashi brought this up with his eternal rival, evetualy they challenged eachother to create a mini-me by the time Naruto became a genin. So Kakashi went to his favourite Namekazi and started to make him into a mini me…

"We DON'T get special treatment from them... you baka! Your just jealous that we are better than you, and that they are teaching us cool stuff!" Sakumo proclaimed

Naruto, having no other arguments decided to take a page out of Kakashi-nii's book and said "Huh? You said something?"

Somewhere in Konoha

"ACHOOO!" Kakashi sneezed as he got a strange tingle down his back

"MY ETERNAL RIVAL! ARE YOU OKAY? IT IS NOT YOUFUTH TO CATCH A COLD DURING OUR BALLON BLOWING CONTEST!"

Kakashi though 'hehehe… phase one complete' with an evil smile under his mask

Back with Naruto

"Anyways… I wanna go to Shika's house… see yas later!" Naruto said before walking towards to Nara clan compound. The Nara compound was the most secluded compound in the village, surrounded by lush forests and many ravines. Many times had Naruto been told to stay on the path to the compound, but Naruto being himself decided not to listen. The blonde boy was racing through the forest when, he slipped on some conveniently placed mud. This mud made the boy slide down another conveniently placed mudslide. Naruto was traveling at high jonin speeds until he slammed into a wall, breaking his arm.

Naruto felt a tremendous amount of pain in his left arm. He looked around to find himself at the bottom of a ravine. Using some intelligence Naruto mapped out a way to the top of the ravine. The boy stood up and then started to walk, only to trip on something. Naruto turned his head to find a sizeable scroll laying in the dirt. With much curiosity the blonde opened the scroll to find a summoning contract, but not just any contract… the dragon contract.

Naruto stared in awe of this contract, remembering what his father had told him about contracts, you need to sign them in blood. Naruto opened the scroll to see an almost empty scroll, the last summoner's name had faded which signified the death of the person. It read Shamon.

Naruto had heard this name before but couldn't put his broken finger on it. So as any sane person would, Naruto used some of his blood from his broken arm, to write his name in the contract.


As soon as he was finished he was reverse summoned to a place. Naruto looked around, confused about this thing that had occurred. From where the blonde was standing, it looked like he was on the bottom of the ocean, though the floor was green grass, and there was perfect lighting. Then three snake looking creatures flew towards Naruto… they were dragons

"So… this is our new summoner… he looks like a brat" the pure black dragon said, the only other colour that was emitted was the golden hue of his eyes.

"Hush Tatsu… can't you see that he is injured badly, and yet he is showing no pain… he is worthy of summoning us" the pure white dragon with blue eyes said

"Enough bickering sons" A dragon, that had black scales, but a white hue emitting around each of them complimented by blood red eyes that looked like a certain dojutsu. "I am Ryujin the leader of the Dragon Kin, the black one is my son Tatsu and the white one is my other son Ikuchi, we are the strongest of our Kin and wish to know your name"

The blonde looked in awe… then spoke "I am Naruto Uzumaki-Namekazi, the oldest son of my household and well… not much else"

Ryujin then spoke "Is your tou-san named Minato Namekazi by any chance?"

"Yes" Naruto replied… "But why… and also my arm kinda hurts, can you guys point me in the way of a healer or hospital?"

"No need young one, Ikuchi heal him" The lead dragon spoke, Ikuchi flew over towards Naruto, who realised that these Dragons towered over him. The white dragon blew out some green mist which instantly healed Naruto's arm, who then thanked the dragon.

"As for asking about your Tou-san, well he declined our contract due to him signing that dammed Toad contract, now one more question Naruto-san" Ryujin spoke "How did you find this summoning contract?"

"Umm… I kinda tripped over it while I was trying to get to a hospital" Naruto responded

"I didn't expect that… well as a dragon summoner you should know what you are getting yourself into. As a dragon summoner you will be trained in Senjutsu, Katon and Futon Jutsu as well as Kenjutsu. Given your lineage and your amazing chakra reserves you can become a dragon sage in 10 years." Kyujin stated as Naruto sweatdropped

"10 years… I CAN'T WAIT 10 years!" Naruto exclaimed

"Why can't you wait 10 years young one" The dragon replied

"I need to get strong, so I show my siblings who's boss… ya know" Naruto replies

"that was a joke right?" Tatsu said "I mean I am powerful and all but I didn't get it for personal gain"

Naruto stood there pouting.

"Little one, power should be used to protect those who you see precious, not to destroy them" The older dragon said

"Ummm but like… I don't know how to protect those precious to me, they are all so powerful, my tou-chan is a SS-class shinobi and my Kaa-Chan is a recently retired S-Rank. Kakashi-Nii is called a Sage and he is S-Rank and Shisui-nii is just too fast to be killed" Naruto explained "Plus Tou-chan and Kaa-chan are training my little brother and sister… so that just leaves me"

"What do you mean that your siblings are getting trained by your parents… are you?" Ikuchi asked

"Well, yes and no… my parents did start to train me, a year ago, but I haven't progressed beyond shuriken and kunai throwing and writing kanji."

"Hmmm, what about these other two you speak of?" Tatsu asked

"Kakashi-nii teaches me how to act like a shinobi, and how to think like one, he always says look underneath the underneath. Shisui-nii works on my speed, he wants me to be faster than my Tou-chan" Naruto responded

"Hmmm, this Shisui you speak of… is he a Uchiha, because I can sense an Uchiha presence near the scroll" Ryujin asks

"Yes, Shisui-nii is a Uchiha" Naruto responded

"Father he should be going back to his world soon, we can always train him there… after all he is just a kid" Tatsu adds

"That is true my son, as a sign of our friendship Naruto please take this" Ryujin speaks as a cloud of smoke appeared Infront of the blonde boy.

When the smoke dissipated there was a cloak, folded into a neat square, on top of this cloak there was a tanto (Small katana) which had a black hilt and blade, but had a white dragon engraved into the hilt. Naruto then put on the cloak, which would be a similar piece of clothing compared to his dad's Hokage cloak. The cloak was black, but had white flames coming from the bottom. The cloak was short sleeved and had a high collar.

Naruto equipped his new coat and decided to hold onto the tanto, because he didn't have a sheath.

"Until Next time Naruto" Ryujin stated before Naruto was summoned back into his world.


Naruto felt dizzy, he looked around only to find Shusui Uchiha staring straight at him. "Hi Shisui-Nii!" Naruto said while waving

"Hey Ototo… what have you got there?" the said Uchiha asked

"Oh nothing much… just a cool cloak and a tanto"

"Ok… you better get home quick, its past your curfew and your Kaa-Chan wont be happy"

"Thanks Shisui-Nii"

"And Naruto…" Naruto knew something was serious when his brother figure used his real name

"I would recommend keeping you summoning contract a secret, remember a ninja's best tool is deception" Shisui added

"Good point Shisui-nii" Naruto said, before Shisui grabbed his shoulder and shunshined to the Namekazi compound.

The two boys appeared in a swirl of leaves in the Namekazi kitchen. "NARUTO UZUMAKI-NAMEKAZI WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU WERE DOING OUT SO LATE!" a demonic voice shouted

"Sorry Kuchina-sama, I found Naruto buying some things off a traveling merchant, he had no clue what time it was." Shisui explained

"SO YOU WERE OUT SHOPPING HUH!... what did you get?" Kushina asked

"Well kaa-chan I got this cool cloak and this tanto, now I can look like a cool ninja ya know" Naruto explained. Then Naruto noticed that his siblings were not around "Hey Kaa-Chan, wheres Mito and Sakumo?"

"They're at the Hyuuga compound" Kushina said with a smile on their face

"But what about their kerfew?" Naruto asked

"Sweetie you know that they are stronger than you, so they can handle themselves for an extra hour or two" Kushina spewed out, making Naruto a little angry and sad

"Then can you train me more so that I can go out later?" Naruto asked innocently

"Naruto we have talked about this, they are jinchuriki, they need the extra training because of what is sealed in them" Kushina responded

"Oh… ok kaa-chan… I'll just go to bed then" Naruto said with a tear sliding down his eye. Naruto made his way to his room, shut the door and then began to cry… he cried and then his eyes began to feel uneasy, blood started to trickle down them, well until the entire house started to shake. The walls began to crack, windows shatter.

Naruto heard cries for his name but he was too engulfed of the constant memories of being denied by his parents

"Can I train with them Tou-chan?"

"Sorry son, not today

"What about today Kaa-Chan? Tou-chan said I couldn't yesterday"

"No Naruto, not today either"

"Naruto we have talked about this, you will be trained, just later"

"LATER NEVER CAME KAA-CHAN!"

Naruto noticed that the room around him was playing back painful memories, ones he didn't want to see, ones that had been blocked off

"NARUTO… COME TO ME"

"Kukuku, young boy… how did you end up here?"

"You will pay for your father's sins you leaf scum"

"TEAR OFF YOUR SISTER'S SEAL… I CAN HELP YOU GET MORE POWERFUL… SO THAT THEY CAN SEE YOU!"

"STOP IT!" Naruto screamed clutching the sides of his head, regaining all the trauma filed memories that had been sealed away.

Naruto then felt a pair of arms wrap around him, "It's okay… I'm here now Ototo"

The said blonde turned around to find his brother figure hugging him. "S-Shisui-nii, what happened to me, why am I like this, why have I seen such horrible things, why do people hate me, why nii-san? Why are there horrible people in the world?" Naruto shouted letting tears of blood flow down his cheeks.

"Ototo… I don't know… but your eyes, they're glowing" Shisui said, Kushina stood at the door frame, crying. Shisui pulled out a kunai and then showed it to Naruto, his whites were now red, both of his iris were black and a blue rectangle glowed as a replacement for the pupil. "Naruto, that is the Ketsuryugan."
