The Dragon Sage:


Chapter 15: Burn


Naruto Uzumaki was now walking towards the village hidden in the sand, now an enemy of the hidden leaf village. He was also walking to his home village, it had been three long years since his 'death'.

The Naruto Uzumaki that was walking to Suna was in fact a fire clone, still dressed in the hooded cloud robe that made Menma of the Dragon release so famous. The reason that Naruto was traveling to Suna was to damage the infrastructure of the village and destroy any rumors that Suna had one of the five great elemental sages. So far Sasuke Uchiha was recognized as the Lighting Sage, Kurotsuchi of Iwa being known as the Earth Sage, and Sakumo Namikaze, Rouge Ninja and ally of Taki and Oto as the Wind Sage. Sakumo had also been recognized as an SS Rank Ninja, mastering his Bijuu Chakra, Sage mode and his wind manipulation.

Suna had been spreading rumors that they were in possession of the Fire Sage, her name was Yuri. Naruto wanted to claim his title and do this suicide mission as his last un-dead deed.

Naruto now stood at the gate of Sunakagure, emitting all the killing intent he could muster. The guards were trebling with fear. Naruto used Kunai's laced with ninja wire to kill them, then to retrieve the dead bodies, all 27 of them.

Naruto was walking through the streets of Suna, bodies being dragged behind him, causing gasps and gross reactions from the populace. Then a genin team approached Naruto, they demanded "Stop right now or we will have to use lethal force!"

Naruto walked through the team, not saying a single word. The genin team decided to jump Naruto, they were met with Kunai that flew through their stomach. Soon Naruto was in the village centre, surrounded by most of the village's ninja. Then dropped down three people Pakura of the Scorch Release, Temari no Sabaku and Yuri 'The Fire Sage'.

Naruto retracted his kunai that were pulling the village guards into his cloak, and then started to gather Nature Chakra.

Yuri then spoke up "I am Yuri the Fire Sage! Today you will meet your death because you have attacked the Hidden Sand Village. Who do you think you are?"

Naruto had finished gathering Nature Chakra, and activated his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. Naruto then for the first time in front of people pulled down the hood, showing red scale markings around his cheeks, and red outlines around his eyes. Pakura looked stunned for a second before regaining her composure.

"I am Menma of the Dragon Release, The Flaming Shinigami, I am also Naruto Uzumaki the Dragon Sage. I am here to claim my title of Fire Sage" Naruto spoke eying Yuri. For the first time in three years Naruto was going to go all out.

Yuri spoke "Well too bad buddy, I am the Fire Sage! Fire Release: Flame Stream!" She shouted as a jet of fire sped towards Naruto, Naruto smirked as the jet got closer, then engulfed him.

"So much for an S Class Ninja" Yuri scoffed, only to realize that Naruto was still standing there, smiling.

"You know I've done some research into the Suna Fire Brigade that has surrounded me, how fitting for a fake Fire Sage, who can't even burn me, I don't think your most powerful attack could even singe me"

Yuri made hand signs to her fire brigade and they all shouted "Fire Brigade Combo: Fire Typhoon!"

Every fire or scorch release ninja fire what seemed to be their most powerful attack, and was combined with some wind attacks from other ninjas. This created one of the biggest Flaming tornadoes that Naruto had ever seen.

The Suna ninja were please with their work, and cheers started to erupt from the crowd.

Naruto used Kagutsuchi to immediately dissipate the flaming vortex. The entire village of Suna was shocked.

Naruto had an intense face on himself and stated "I control all flames, they can't hurt me"

Everyone was too shocked to do anything about this, Naruto though 'time for my most devastating move' He unsheathed Kagutschi and Acala, both letting them blaze with blue flames.

"You know white flames are the hottest flames that can be produced, followed by blue. There are also unholy flames that are black, they can burn through anything for seven days and nights, they are called Ameterasu Flames. The true Fire Sage has complete control over all flames including black ones." Naruto said as he shifted into a battle stance with his two swords, gathering all the flames he could muster, soon a blue vortex of flames was surrounding Naruto.

"Sage Art: FLAMES HIDDEN IN THE LEAVES!" Naruto shouts as the vortex turns black before becoming ten time more intensive, the vortex then pushed out at S class speeds. A 25 meter radius around Naruto was completely reduced to ash.

Pakura then charged at Naruto with SS class speeds. Naruto dodged before sheathing his two blades, preforming three hand signs and shouting "Blaze Release: Eternal Dragon Hellfire" as a black flamed dragon exited Naruto's mouth, speeding towards Pakura who dodged.

Naruto screamed "Ninpo: Flame Homing!" as the black dragon flame immediately changed direction and engulfed Pakura, who exploded into smoke.

Naruto realized that his Nature Chakra had run out, he had no chance of fighting an entire village, so he stood still and shouted "Fear me enemies of Konoha! For I am the true Fire Sage Naruto Uzumaki, the Dragon Sage!"

Naruto then exploded into flames, well the clone of Naruto did.


The real Naruto smiled, as he got his memories back from his fire clone (AN: Naruto can make fire shadow clones, it's a side effect of being an elemental sage). He got dressed into a traditional Konoha jonin garb, pulled on his cloud cloak and tied his forehead protector on. Naruto was currently in the trees that surrounded the village hidden on the leaves.

Naruto had sent his students to the village hidden in the mist for further training and protection.

For the last time Naruto put on that Façade of Menma of the Dragon Release, hooding up and Shunshining onto the path. He walked towards the village gates, the date was October 10th his birthday.

Naruto walked into the village, noticed by the various ANBU, regular ninja and civilian population. You see Menma had made a name for himself among the leaf population as their guardian angel, saving many leaf ninja teams from failed missions. Also with his save in the Mine village outpost he got many warm greetings from ANBU that where passing through his village. Naruto made a detour to the Uchiha compound, he noticed the two guards that were at the gate and turned on his Sharingan. The guards flinched before letting him walk in, it was an unwritten rule in the Uchiha clan that anybody who could show proof of Sharingan activation could enter the clan grounds, and Naruto used this to his advantage.

Soon he stood in front of his own grave, which had anti-robbing seals on them. It said:

Here lies Naruto Namikaze-Uzumaki

A beloved friend, brother and son who sacrificed his life trying to bring his brother back home. He upheld the will of fire to its upmost letter.

May he rest in peace.

'I wonder if my body is inside the casket' Naruto pondered, he unsheathed Acala, its blue blaze glowing mightily and sliced the tombstone in a diagonal fashion. Naruto then sensed three chakra signatures behind him, all familiar ones.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO HIS GRAVE!" a voice shouted with hatred and rage

Naruto turned around to see his Nii-san Shisui Uchiha accompanied by Tenten and Sasuke Uchiha, all gripping their respective weapons.

Naruto sheathed Acala and chuckled "It's weird ya know… being dead" before removing his hood to show them who Menma of the Dragon Release really was.

All three gasped, all losing their will to fight. Sasuke fell on his knees, tears coming out of his eyes.

Shisui Uchiha, his Nii-san broke, literally he was just standing there with an emotionless expression.

Tenten ran towards Naruto, slapped him before giving him a bone crushing hug, to which he returned, he noticed the pink tinge on Tenten's face, she was also crying.

Naruto looked at his brother in Shisui, who now had tears running down his face and croaking out "ototo" before tackling him and Tenten to the ground.

Naruto then got up and hugged Sasuke before whispering "Sup teme". Sasuke embraced the hug and replied "Not much dobe"

Naruto chuckled before standing up and walking over to Tenten, he unsheathed Kagutsuchi and said "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have stolen this from you… please take it for real this time"

She looked up at Naruto before squeaking out "Naruto-kun…" what she did next surprised everyone, Tenten grabbed Naruto's face with both of her hands, pulled him down and kissed him square on the lips.

The kiss lasted for around 15 seconds before she pulled away, leaving them both blushing. Tenten then snuggled into Naruto completely forgetting that there were two other people there.

Shisui then spoke in a way that Naruto never saw coming "She's been wanting to do that since the chunin exams four years ago… you should hear her when she's sexually frust-" but was cut off by a dangerous glare from the weapons master herself.

"You're all acting really normal for seeing a dead person ya know!" Naruto stated

Shisui and Sasuke laughed and simultaneously said "Well we know that you wouldn't have it any other way"

Naruto chuckled and replied "no I wouldn't"

Tenten then pulled away and took Kagutsuchi and its sheath and hooked it to her belt. "You know you should alert the Hokage and the remainder of the Rookie 14."

Naruto nodded before making a fire clone, who made his way to the Hokage's office. Naruto was then dragged by Tenten to the gathering place of the Rookie 14, which was the Amakichi BBQ. As they walked Naruto got many gasps from the crowd with him still donning the cloak of Menma (Akatsuki Cloak)

Sasuke, Tenten and Naruto walked to the booth where the rookies were gathering. Tenten and Sasuke sat down in their usual spots, Tenten at the end of the table and Sasuke snuggled up with Fu.

Naruto smiled and spoke "Sasuke got a girlfriend? I didn't see that coming" before grinning madly.

The entire restaurant went quite, for some reason Neji growled. "You think that you can come waltzing in here like nothing has happened?"

Naruto laughed "Okay umm where did the real Neji go?"

Everyone was too shocked to respond, save Neji and Rock Lee. Neji activated his Byakugan and Lee stood up adjusting into a fighting stance. "Neji-kun and I have trained to our limits in these past three years Naruto, we are now the most powerful in the rookie 14, we even surpass you! You think that you can come here not knowing what you did to Mito-san, Tenten-san and Sasuke-kun!"

"It is fated that you should be held accountable for your actions" (Guess who said that)

Naruto looked shocked and held his hands up "Woah woah, don't you want to hear my explanation?"

The response was a Dynamic Entry from Rock Lee. Naruto caught the foot and threw Rock Lee outside the BBQ. He looked at Neji and then huffed "Fine if you want to fight lets go to training ground 7"

Naruto disappeared in a crow Shunshin.

The remaining people followed to the training ground.

At the ground a crowd started to form, many people where there including ANBU scouts, all of ANBU team Ro and Inferno Squad.

Everyone was ready for a fight, Naruto took of his clouded jacket to reveal his jonin garb, shocking many. He threw a kunai into the air.

Neji activated his Byakugan and started to channel flame chakra into his fists, Lee just got into a battle stance.

The Kunai hit the floor and the B and A rank ninja darted into action, all engaging in a fierce Taijutsu bout, to which Naruto dodged everything showing the gap between S and A rank ninja.

After 2 minutes of dodging taijutsu attacks Naruto activated his Sharingan and put Lee to sleep via a visual genjutsu, he then turned his head to Neji and looked at him. It was now a battle between the two dojutsu, one which would solidify which one was stronger.

Neji then further activated his Byakugan until his eyes started to glow blue.

"So you figured out how to evolve the Byakugan into the Tennseigan, impressive" Naruto said before drawing out a kunai "But why go so far, is this because you want to show your affection to a dear female?"

"Shut up rat, you are beneath me for I am a Hyuuga" Neji responded before charging

Naruto held up a tiger handsign and exhaled a bolt of fire "Fire Release: Flamebolt"

The fire bolt streamed towards Neji, who looked to block the attack, then at the last second the attack split in two. The bolt hit Neji in the forehead and the thigh sending him flying back into the ground.

Naruto used a Shunshin to appear above Neji with his kunai in hand and pressed it against his nose before saying "This match is over" and erupting in a pillar of flames.

"Clone" was what many people muttered and though as they just witnessed a dead man throw a Hyuuga Prodigy around like he was nothing.

Naruto then hopped out of a tree, still in his cloak and spoke "If anyone else has a problem with me being dead for three years come now, or forever hold your peace"

No person dared speak

"Good, now let's have a celebration shall we, drinks on me!" Naruto said lifting his fist up, to which many people roared in approval


-Uchiha Compound, Shisui and Naruto's House-

-Many Hours Later, complimented by many drinks of alcohol-


The Uchiha 3, otherwise known as Sasuke, Itachi and Shisui Uchiha were all passed out on the floor, with their respective partners snuggled up close with them (Fu, Izumi and Hana). Others were still enjoying the somewhat endless booze provided by the undead Naruto Uzumaki. On the roof of the house sat three figures, all of them men.

One had blonde hair, another had grey and the final had raven colored hair with blonde tips.

All three of these ninja were almost drop-dead drunk, all were discussing the state of the ninja world, how they were at war with Kumo, Suna and Iwa but no major battle had occurred. Then out of the blue Naruto, the blonde and raven haired man said "I love you guys, Tou-san… sorry for being a dick but you were kinda a dick too, I wanna become family again, so ya know we can start tomorrow"

The blonde haired man named Minato Namikaze responded with a megawatt smile, tears running down his face and an "I love you too"

Naruto then spoke again "aaaaaand Jiji, I love you too, tanks a lot for being there for me, ill give you some of this plant I found on my travels, it's like tobacco but it grows like a weed"

Hiruzen aka Jiji chuckled and replied "Naruto my boy, enlighten me with this weed you speak of… and I will always love you"

Naruto then got an idea, "Yo, check this out tho" as he performed a tiger hand signal and exhaled "Ninpo: Fanfare Celebration Jutsu"

Flares, Fireworks and sparkles erupted from his mouth into the sky high enough for all the citizens in Konoha to be aweing at this Jutsu.

Naruto looked down at the two older men to see them mesmerized by the fireworks. Naruto chuckled as he jumped off the roof to the ground, despite being drunk he could balance relatively well. The drunktard walked aimlessly through the house to find Tenten, Hinata, Kiba, Mito and what seemed to be a random jonin all talking. It didn't take a ninja to notice that Tenten was fifth wheeling, so Naruto decided to change that.

Naruto attempted to Shunshin behind Tenten but overshot the power he needed and slammed into a wall, he started to laugh joined by those surrounding him.

When the laughter died down Naruto wrapped his arms around Tenten (to which she squealed with delight) joining in with the group of five.

20 minutes in Naruto found the conversation to be boring, so he asked "wanna see some more fireworks?" to which everyone cheered.

The reaming party goers shuffled outside, where Naruto and by default the 5 from the group he was just with jumped onto the roof of the house. Naruto once again made the tiger hand sign and exhaled "Ninpo: Dragon Celebration Jutsu"

A firework dragon erupted from Naruto's mouth and continued to soar into the sky where it danced.

Naruto lied down on the roof, getting lost in the Jutsu, until he noticed some body heat next to him.

It was Tenten, she was snuggled up right next to him, and both looked eachother in the eyes, blue met brown and Naruto smiled as he said words that would flatter the bun haired konoichi "you're pretty"

Tenten somewhat squirmed under his compliment and somehow placed he forehead against his. Before either ninja knew what was happening their lips connected as the dragon firework exploded.

They broke apart and cuddled for as long as Naruto could remember.

(Time Release: 8 Hour Fast-Forward Justu)

Naruto opened his eyes to find himself in a bed, with a brown haired woman curled up on top of him, missing everything except a necklace. Naruto noticed the hickeys on the woman's neck and he chuckled. He soon realized that the woman that he had dominated last night was none other than his childhood crush, Tenten.

He also realized that on the floor were several other bodies, namely Sasuke, Shisui, Hana and Fu. The memories of last night started to flood in…

And Naruto thought to himself 'It's good to be back home!'
