A/N: I would like to thank everyone that added this story to their favorites and follows as well as everyone that reviewed the last chapter.


"Have you heard? A masked girl managed to kill four members of the Tatsu gang with her bare hands!"

The television screen revealed students walking through the classroom and the screen zoomed in to show a younger version of Naruto reading a book. Sitting right in front of her was a nervous Tsuna, who kept flickering his eyes at her. A few students kept glancing at them, their eyes lingering on Naruto.

"You are the talk of the town again," Ino pointed out to Naruto. The blonde shrugged her shoulders and whistled when Gokudera, Yamamoto and Tsuna raised their eyebrows at her. Only Hibari knew about her troublemaking past and it was almost reassuring that Hinata-chan didn't spill her past to anyone.

"What did you do in Konoha to make everyone talk?" Tsuna asked.

The Hokage sighed. "What didn't Naruto do is a better question."

"You know you loved my pranks," the blonde said cheerfully. The old man chuckled and shook his head at her comment. There had been a lot of things that made him irritated with the blonde but he would never deny the fact he enjoyed her pranks. Gokudera, Tsuna and Yamamoto glanced at each other.

Tsuna cleared his throat as a thought occurred in his mind. "Naruto, have you been the one messing with me? And not Mukuro?"

"Do you have any evidence?"

The scowl on his face told her that he could not place the evidence on her.

Her classmates whispers echoed throughout the classroom, their eyes gleaming with excitement and fear as they took their seats. Naruto only flipped through the page of her storybook, eyebrows knitted together into one thin line as her classmates discussed about the actions of the mysterious girl.

"I'm surprised that you are even reading a book," Shikamaru observed. "You don't like reading a book."

Naruto hummed. "I didn't like reading books from Konoha, because they didn't really resonate with me. Those books were so interesting because I felt a connection to them. Those books in Konoha were more suited for someone like Sakura and Ino."

"Why do I feel strangely insulted?" Sakura commented. The pink-haired girl curled her lips into a frown and the blonde shook her head. If it had been an insult then it would have been more obvious to her. It just meant that the girl was more innocent and preferred stories with heroines that had a happy beginning.

Gokudera grunted. "Because it is the Greedy Woman."

Maybe I should have cut her tongue out. Naruto curled her lips into a grimace as her blue eyes darted to the window. She just wanted to fight the head of that gang and have that piece of information spread. But having her classmates talked about her actions wasn't something she wanted to hear in the morning.

"W-Would you really cut her tongue?" Sakura stuttered. The more she hear about the changes in Naruto, the more terrified she was of the woman. Naruto had been terrifying when they were little kids with her brute strength. But it seemed like the blonde became even terrifying when she got older.

Naruto shrugged. "Yes, it would make her realize that she shouldn't talk."

"She isn't kidding," Tsuna commented. The male grimaced as several teens raised their eyebrows at him and the male grimaced as he recalled what Naruto had done. "She cut off the tongue of one of her informants because they betrayed her."

Sakura paled while Sasuke looked at the blonde like he could never expect her to do this. Naruto curled her lips into a smile and the Hokage eyed her. What? She was good to her informants and workers but the moment they betrayed her then the kindness would go away.

"You are terrifying little woman, aren't you?" Kakashi commented lightly.

The blonde smiled. "I'm a fair woman…betray me and I will punish you in the same way you betray me."

But it did benefit her in a way.

Now she might have a chance of fighting someone stronger and see whether or not if that man was right about her. You are the Kyuubi. Her hand wandered to her whiskered cheeks and a frown played on her lips. No matter what she did, she could never recall or summon the so-called powers of the Kyuubi. Not even a single tail.

"What happened with Mizuki really affected you," Iruka commented with a frown.

Naruto eyed him. "You and every villager didn't help either. You guys are lucky that I'm not like Mukuro, now that Pineapple Head is twisted."

"Can you even access the Kyuubi?" Sasuke asked. He knitted his eyebrows together and rubbed the back of his neck. It was rather odd to know that such a small woman could contain such a huge beast inside of her. Iruka, Kakashi and the Hokage eyed the young woman, curious to know her answer.

The blonde nodded. "He is a real buzzkill but his powers come in useful."

"What do you mean that he is a buzzkill?" Choji asked. The blonde hummed and rubbed the back of her neck before darting her eyes at Hibari. There had been too many times that the Kyuubi interrupted their time together by making comments about her parents, her age or the joys of parenthood.

Naruto grimaced. "You will find out."

But she had to be the monster or why else would he say those words to her.

"Because he is an ass," Naruto declared.

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.

"U-Uzumaki-san!"

It was Tsuna's voice that snapped her out of her musings. Bright brown eyes looked at her with so much hesitance that the blonde eyed the boy. Had it been right for her to help him? He thanked her already. They could go back to their non-existent relationship of being classmates and nothing else.

"That did not happen," Yamamoto commented with a large smile on his face. Naruto curled her lips into a scowl and glared at her friend, earning a larger smile from the male. He just had to remind her that her original plan had been ruined. She sighed and curled her lips into a smile. "You know you liked being friends with us."

The blonde hummed. "You and Ryohei do make the best babysitters when Haku and Kusakabe aren't around."

"You say that because you don't pay us," Yamamoto pointed out. Naruto shrugged, not bothering to deny the fact that she liked making him babysit her son. But between Ryohei and Yamamoto, she preferred the former baseball player taking care of her son. He didn't cause a headache for her or Kyoya.

His gratitude for her behavior had already been noted and received, so why was he persisting with her?

"Because you were nice to me," Tsuna explained. Everyone swirled their heads at him and the brown-haired man offered them a small smile. His brown eyes lingered on the scowling blond before moving to the black-haired male. "And I thought since you weren't a bully that you would be a friend."

Naruto sighed. "I don't understand how you manage to survive this long with that kind of mentality."

"I have you to help me," the male explained cheerfully. Everyone blinked and the genins gawked at the two of them, trying to understand what kind of job that the Adult Tsuna had. They knew that Naruto had a dangerous job and that she did report to Tsuna at times but they didn't know what his job was.

The blonde rolled her eyes. "You should be grateful that your Father funded my work or else I wouldn't help you."

"Not even because I'm practically like your little brother?" Tsuna asked, raising an eyebrow at her.

Naruto grunted. Did he have to remind her that they were very distantly related? Just because they shared a common ancestor and she always gave him advice and scolded him, did not mean they were like siblings. Except there was the fact that he and the other guardians are the closest to have a family that she had.

"N-Naru-chan, I'm always going to follow you…because w-we are best friends!"

The television screen showed the image of a young Naruto looking at a nervous, little Hinata. For everyone, it was clear that the blonde was around seven and had a flower crown around her hair. The smiles on their faces alongside the adoration in Hinata's voice told volumes of how close the two women were.

"The moment Hinata learnt where I was, she came charging to Namimori," Naruto chuckled. The genins blinked as the blonde curled her lips into a tiny smile. "It was a good thing that she came when she did and not during that period of time. She would have been so disappointed with me."

Yamamoto hummed. "She is the only one that you don't charge any money."

"Best-friend privilege," Naruto sang.

Shikamaru eyed her. "Does Choji and me get the same privilege?"

"No," Naruto deadpanned. "You became my friends but don't forget I was only your skipping buddy."

The two males frowned.

She relaxed her shoulders as the words from the past echoed in her ear. Taking in a deep breath, Naruto plastered on a bright smile and lowered her book. Tsuna smiled at her, looking so much like a scared little cub that it almost made her laugh. He does remind me of her. The same kind of meekness that hid a hidden strength.

"You never treated me like how you treat Hinata!" Tsuna complained. Gokudera bobbed his head in agreement while Naruto rolled her eyes. Hibari pinched his nose at the whining coming from the male and pulled out his tonfa. The brown-haired male squeaked and rubbed the back of his neck.

Naruto sighed. "You whine so much and you are so lazy when it comes to observing things."

Hibari grunted and the blonde looked at her partner. You should have corrected his whining even more if that was your problem. That was what it sounded like to her and Naruto shrugged. He was right but there just came a point when the whining didn't grate at her like it did in the past.

"How did Naruto end up helping Tsuna-san?" Iruka asked.

Hibari sighed and simply answered. "Little Fox is greedy."

Everyone just knitted their eyebrows, not fully understanding what the male meant by those words, and Hibari only rolled his eyes. That was the best answer he was going to give to the crowd that pulled him away from his work and family. If this had been a couple of years ago, he would have hit them for their silly question.

But that was where their similarities ended.

"Sawada." The whispers in the classroom died as everyone swirled their heads to look at them. Boys blinked and stared at her golden hair before looking down to her whisker cheeks while the girls blinked as if only realizing that she was there. Only Yamamoto didn't look surprised. No, that classmate just stared at them with a bright smile.

"You know one word from Naruto and she can get everyone to listen," Yamamoto commented. Naruto shrugged and looked up at the ceiling before flickering her eyes at the three other males in the room. Tsuna eyed her with envy while Gokudera grunted in agreement with his words.

Hibari looked down at her and lowered his head. "Even the little cub will listen to you."

"Maybe because I told him that unless he can beat me, he obeys my orders," Naruto whispered back. The male chuckled, looking faintly amused and the blonde quirked her lips into a smile. "That little cub already thinks he can defeat his Papa in battle. You should thank Fon for teaching me on how to deal with a cub that has the Hibari bloodline."

"I was a good, little cub."

Naruto raised an eyebrow. "That wasn't what your mother or Fon told me."

Those grey eyes looked intensely at her and the blonde closed her eyes. That look in his eyes reminded her that the two of them couldn't have any alone time together. It was better when she thought about it. Kyoya was tempted for another child, just so their child would leave her alone.

Her partner was very good at convincing her.

Even in the early morning, her popular classmate could muster such a fake smile.

"Why are you always putting on a fake smile?" Sakura asked with a small frown playing on her lips. She couldn't understand why the male would put on a mask. Sasuke and the other genin nodded their heads in agreement while Kakashi looked at the former baseball player with curiosity.

Yamamoto chuckled. "Because people don't like to listen."

"Isn't she the girl that Dame-Tsuna thanked yesterday? Looking at her up close, she looks way too pretty to be associated with a loser like him."

Naruto did not bat an eyelash as one of her male classmates' voice boomed throughout the room. Sakura and Ino looked at the whiskered woman, waiting for her to make some kind of comment about her appearance and only to be stupefied when the blonde only shrugged her shoulder.

"Aren't you happy with the compliment?" Sakura asked with knitted eyebrows. All the girls knew that Ami used to bully the blonde for her appearance. Then again, the purple-haired girl had always bullied the other girls for their appearance but Naruto used to get the burnt from it.

The blonde shrugged. "I don't really care if he thinks that I'm pretty or not because he doesn't really like me. I bet if he knew that I am a killer then he would have a different tune."

Looks could be deceiving.

"You would never think Naruto can break your bones until she punches you," Tsuna commented. Everyone looked at the blond-haired woman for a good couple of seconds before nodding their head. When everyone considered how slender the woman was, they would never think of how strong the woman was.

The blonde grunted. "Sadly, my punches means nothing when my opponent can trick me."

"You sound bitter," Choji commented.

Naruto scowled. "You will find out about my deepest humiliation."

"I wish she smiled at me like she smiled at Dame-Tsuna."

Sure, she could play the idiot card for them if they wanted.

"Have you been playing the idiot card with us?" Sakura asked with a small frown. The idea that the dead last had been playing them was an idea that made her feel uncomfortable. Sasuke eyed the woman, feeling almost troubled at the idea of the blond-haired woman being better than him.

Naruto shrugged. "I didn't like using my head during my time in the Academy, besides I wanted someone to pay attention to me so acting like the class clown was a great idea."

Iruka winced and the blond-haired woman rolled her eyes. He should be grateful that her acts hadn't been so bad like some of the people that she knew. It was not like she caused explosions like a certain someone in the room or got into a physical fight with a teacher.

"Why haven't we notice her till now?"

Because she worked hard not to draw any attention to her.

"So you haven't done any pranks?" Iruka asked. He was confounded at the idea of the blond-haired woman stopping herself from pranking people. There had been so many times when the male tried to catch the girl in the act, only not to find any evidence of her acts.

Naruto hummed. "Nope or else I would have gotten into trouble with Kyoya."

"You act like he is the law," Sasuke observed.

All the adults from the future kept quiet and Yamamoto glanced at the only married couple in the room. While it was true that the male kept control of everything in the town even when he was not there, his son was the one person that Kyoya could not control. That honor was given to Naruto.

The toddler knew who was the stronger one between his parents.

"You don't want to anger Hibari," Tsuna finally said.

Naruto tightened her grip on her book and threw a glare at her classmates. They paled, gulped and swirled their heads away from her. Only Yamamoto offered her a smile and a laugh. I don't know whether he is an idiot or if he wants a death wish. She forced a smile to play on her lips before looking back at Tsuna.

"You do know Naruto is terrifying when she glares at you," Shikamaru observed. Tsuna and Gokudera nodded their heads in agreement while Yamamoto only laughed at the comment. This earned narrowed eyes from the blond-haired woman, who folded her arms against her chest.

Yamamoto shrugged. "I know but as long as she doesn't bite me then I'm fine."

"I bite harder than Kyoya," Naruto admitted. Her husband raised an eyebrow, not looking one bit happy by her comment, and the blonde raised her eyebrow at him. Did he not remember the number of times she punched him? The man sighed and she knew that her partner remembered that she did have a terrible punch.

"Y-You don't have to talk to me," Tsuna hunched his shoulders as he took his seat right beside her. "You a-aren't going to make much friends if we continued to talk to each other."

"You were willing to push Naruto away so she can make friends?" Shikamaru asked, knitting his eyebrows together. "I thought you would want friends since you had no one to hang out with."

Tsuna laughed and rubbed the back of his neck. "I didn't want her to blame me if people don't like her."

"Don't worry I pushed them away with my charming personality," the blonde replied with a wide smile. Yamamoto chuckled while Gokudera scoffed. They both knew how charming her personality could be when she had no desire to interact with people. Sakura and the other genin just stared at her.

Yamamoto grinned. "We all knew that you have a warm personality but it just took you time to go back to the way that you used to be."

"Is your proof the fact that I talked to you after you thought Squalo had been eaten by that shark?" Naruto asked. The male smiled even wider and the blonde eyed him. "Because that was on Haku."

"What about the time on the roof?"

"I told the truth that day."

The former baseball player grinned. "Really now? If you told the truth then you wouldn't have tried to intervene. Besides if you really were heartless then you wouldn't have tried to help me or Lambo. You wouldn't have been giving Tsuna or even Gokudera advice on girls whenever they mess up."

"I didn't mess up!" Gokudera grumbled.

The blonde swirled her head at the male. "You fucked up when you realized that you liked her more than a friend. Honestly, how the hell you can be so smart when it comes to schoolwork and be so dumb with girls? I even questioned your own sister about this."

"You are the reason that my sister kept popping in to give me advise?" He growled. "Greedy Woman, do you know how terrible my sister is when it comes to relationships?"

The blonde shrugged. "Well she likes to talk about love and from what she told me about your father and mother…they were pretty romantic."

"My father was a man-slut," Gokudera declared, rolling his eyes. Everyone blinked and flickered their eyes at the other adults but all three males shrugged. They knew better than to bring up family when it came to those two. "He killed my mother."

Naruto eyed him. "Are you seriously not going to try and hear what Bianchi had to say? If anyone should be furious with him then it should be her. Your father cheated on her mother with your mother."

Everyone just gawked at them.

"I only heard of these things in drama but I never thought this happens in real life too," Ino commented with a frown. Her light-blue eyes flickered at the two arguing adults before darting her eyes at Tsuna. The blonde looked thoughtful while everyone else nodded their heads.

She slumped and curled her lips into a smile. "Do I want to make friends?"

"Considering how annoying you were in the Academy, yes," Sakura declared, rolling her eyes. Sasuke narrowed his eyes at the pink-haired girl. He had been able to tolerate her from the Wave Mission but that comment grate on his nerves. "You were always trying to get attention and doing things that my parents would scold me for. You are lucky your parents weren't around."

Yamamoto thinned his lips, opened his mouth to scold the girl but shut his mouth when Naruto held her hand up at him before making her way to the pink-haired girl. He nodded and flickered his eyes to Kyoya. The male did not look too bothered of what his partner was about to do, then again Kyoya knew how Naruto disliked thoughtless people.

Smack.

"You slapped me!" Sakura yelled as the hand mark from Naruto's hand burned into the girl's skin.

"Because you are annoying me," Naruto growled. "What the hell have your parents have been teaching you? That orphans are lucky? Or have you forgotten that your darling Sasuke-kun is also an orphan? If you have been my daughter, I would have done more than smack you. Your parents loves you and never abused you in anyway or form."

The Hokage grimaced. "Naruto, I understand your need to talk sense into her but this isn't the time or place."

"I know but I needed to smack her for the insensitive comment," Naruto declared calmly. "If those words came out from the Pineapple, Chrome or even Hinata-chan then I wouldn't have done this. I hate disrespectful brats. A five-year-old has better manners than her."

The adults grimaced at those words.

"Don't you want friends?" Tsuna tilted his head and knitted his eyebrows together into a thin line. His brown eyes shone with so much confusion that it reminded her of a pouting puppy. She poked her tongue against her cheek and slipped her book underneath her desk.

"I have friends." She leaned her body against her chair and looked up at the ceiling. "But I don't want to be friends with anyone in our class. They aren't loyal to anyone but themselves. If they sensed that there is a way out for them to get into trouble then they will throw their so-called friend over the bus."

Tsuna eyed her. "You know Kyoko and Hana aren't like that."

"Kyoko used to be a doormat and felt the pressure of being the school idol," the blonde agreed. Everyone knitted their eyebrows as Naruto tilted her head to the side. "Hana won't ever throw Kyoko over the bus since they have been friends for such a long time now. They are even closer since Hana got together with her brother."

"You know we won't ever throw you over the bus," Yamamoto reminded her.

Naruto nodded. "I know that now but you did throw me over the bus a couple of weeks after the events that happened here."

"We did it because we thought you needed him," Tsuna protested as everyone looked at them with confusion. "And you gained something from our unintentional of throwing you over the bus."

The blonde rolled her eyes. "The only thing I gain besides training is the knowledge that you, Gokudera and Yamamoto are naïve idiots. If you haven't tried to help then Hibari wouldn't have his house destroyed."

"Little Fox, you destroyed the house," Hibari reminded her.

Iruka eyed them. "What are you guys talking about?"

"You will find out."

Tsuna frowned and darted his eyes to their classmates before looking back at her. "T-They aren't all like that."

Naruto curled her lips into a scowl and darted her eyes to Yamamoto before flickering her eyes at Hibari. When it came to her friendship with the baseball player, their relationship never reached a stage where she could properly benefit it. With Hibari, their relationship began from a mutual understanding of mutualism.

It changed from there.

"You didn't always think like that," Choji pointed out to the whiskered woman. "You used to be happy and think that friendship were about being around a person."

The blond-haired woman nodded. "Choji, I changed a lot after running away from Konoha. Whatever happiness and light that I had inside of me had to be stifled because it wouldn't help me survive."

"She gets better," Yamamoto informed the male. "The fact that she has subordinates and friends who are willing to die for her should tell you this. You should see Haku and how he always makes sure that Naruto doesn't do anything irresponsible."

"The two time he wasn't there and I did something irresponsible," Naruto admitted. Hibari looked at her and grunted. The both of them knew what were those two times. One of them had occurred before he came into her life while the other irresponsible action had given them a child.

"Most of them are," Naruto darted her eyes to the boys that surrounded Yamamoto's table before going to the girls that kept chatting to each other without a single care in the world. "It's human nature after all to toss someone away, the moment they stopped being useful to you."

Ino frowned. "Only someone cruel would do that."

"So are you implying Sakura was cruel to leave you the moment that she found out about your crush on Sasuke?" Naruto asked, raising her eyebrow and tilting her head to the side. Ino had never really told her of how the friendship ended but then again their own relationship was based on the fact that they had people they cared about involved in this business.

Sakura grinded her teeth. "I didn't break our friendship because of Sasuke-kun."

"Then why did you break it?" Naruto asked, tilting her head. It was a curiosity when she considered how their friendship had been similar to the friendship between Kyoko and Hana.

The pink-haired girl hung her shoulders. "I was tired of being in her shadow! And while Ino-Pig did build my confidence up, she also made some underhanded comments about me too. Our relationship had never been like the friendship you have with Hinata."

Naruto only nodded her head while Ino's eyes flashed with guilt.

The brown-haired boy frowned. "F-Friendship isn't about usefulness."

"Maybe when you are a little kid, friendship is because you enjoy being around a person." Naruto straightened her back and regarded the teen before her. He frowned. "But then when you make friends with someone as you get older, they don't view friendship in the same view as you did when you are a child. They see friendship as an investment. They want something in exchange."

"That is a very cynical way of viewing friendships," Kakashi commented. His single eye flickered to the five adults and rested on the blond-haired woman. "Mind telling me of what you achieved with your relationships with these four men, Naruto."

Naruto hummed and thought carefully of what she achieved with all four males in her life. Her friendship with Gokudera only happened after the Varia attack while Tsuna and Yamamoto had been building up to it for months. Kyoya had been her friend and ally since the moment she revealed her unmasked face to him.

"Yamamoto helps me with the emotional stuff and acts as my own therapist," the blonde explained with a smile. "Gokudera and me understand just how crappy life can be. Tsuna has the power needed to back up my organization and we share a common goal while Kyoya is my partner. Kyoya offers me respect without judgment and helps me with my work."

Kyoya nodded. "The Little Fox helps out with my work as well."

Tsuna knitted his eyebrows. "Then why did you help me? I-I have nothing to offer you."

"Because in that moment I develop a heart," Naruto deadpanned. "You got a way of making me feel it."

Kyoya eyed her. "You have the same talent."

"Yes but I try not to use that talent on every soul I have met," the blonde admitted.

Tsuna regarded her with brown eyes that did not seem to waver or believe in her words. It almost made her bristled. Why did he look at her like that? She told him the truth. Did he truly believe she did it because she was a good person? The idea made her want to laugh but she held back the bubbles of laughter.

"You know you are a good person," Yamamoto informed her. The blonde shrugged and slid her hand into her pockets before pressing her hands into her pockets. "You just have a very different way of showing how good you are. I mean you are the reason we made it this far."

Naruto hummed. "We made it this far because all of us have a common goal."

"The two of you are talking as if you are in war," the Hokage commented.

The blonde twisted her lips into a scowl. "You have no idea."

That Byakuran is one slippery bastard and he is making my life alongside every remaining jinchuuriki life hell. Naruto clenched her hands into a fist and flickered her eyes to Kyoya. The male looked down at her and grimaced. The alliance Byakuran had in the future was going to destroy them all.

Her younger self better listened to Sasuke, Kyoya and Jiraiya or else there wasn't a future for them to look forward to.

The brown-haired teen shook his head. "A-Anyways, you heard about the murders, didn't you? That g-girl killed four members of a gang in cold blood."

"It wasn't in complete cold blood," Naruto protested as everyone turned to look at her with raised eyebrows. They had all seen of what the blond-haired woman had done to them. She curled her lips into a smile. "What I did to Levi-A-Than's squad was even more brutal."

Tsuna turned green. "Don't remind me. I still have nightmares from it."

"Wuss," the blonde declared, rolling her eyes at him.

"And?" Naruto flipped through the pages of the book as the boy gazed at her with curious brown eyes. "What's so interesting about that? People have been murdered before."

Sasuke, Iruka, Kakashi and the Hokage nodded their heads in agreement while Naruto stretched her back. God, did she want this chapter to be over. How many more chapters do they have before she could find out of what Sasuke planned to do to her younger self to get control over Kurama quicker.

If I had learnt to cooperate with Kurama earlier then maybe things would be different. Naruto thinned her lips and flickered her eyes to Kyoya. Maybe Reborn and the other Arcobaleno would still be here with them. Well they were going to find out of what Sasuke, Jiraiya and Haku planned to do.

Tsuna squeaked and turned green at the comment, earning a frown from the blonde. He really does have a weak stomach. The thought made her roll her eyes and Naruto shut her book. She placed the book in the corner of her desk as those brown eyes looked at her with horror.

"I don't have a weak stomach!" Tsuna protested. All of the adults swirled their heads at the male and raised their eyebrow at him. Naruto hummed and put her hands together, weaving them together until her appearance changed to a woman without an arm, covered with so much blood.

The man turned green while the genins looked at the henge with horror. The blonde dispelled the henge and shook her head at the brown-haired man.

"Proof that you have a weak stomach," Naruto declared.

Choji eyed her. "Naruto, all of us got sick with that image!"

"B-But it is terrifying that she is our age and she was able to kill four members of the Yakuza like it was nothing!" Tsuna whimpered and shuddered as his brown eyes darted to the doors. Well they were weaklings. Of course she could never tell him that. She rather not deal with Hibari attacking her in the middle of school.

"He wouldn't attack you in school, would he?" Ino asked with a frown. "There are rules in place."

Naruto nodded. "There are rules but Kyoya has the belief that he is above the rules. He enforces his rules on the students and if you don't follow it then you get bitten to death. No one is safe from him."

Kyoya grunted and bobbed before looking down at her. It was the fact he knew Naruto understood him and his stance, he probably would have never tried to pursue her. Relationships were shackles but the blonde had never been the type of woman who would get upset if he couldn't be around for months in a time.

She understood that it was for work.

Of course there was the police to worry about but Naruto could escape from prison.

"I am an excellent escape artist," the blonde boasted, bobbing her head. "There has not been a prison that I haven't broken into."

Tsune eyed her. "What about Vindice? I asked you to break Mukuro out of there."

"I feel comfortable letting him rot there for the rest of his life," the blonde replied, shrugging. Gokudera and Hibari nodded their heads in agreement while the brown-haired male looked at her with disbelief. Just because they worked together, breaking into a highly-secured prison for him was another thing.

Shikamaru eyed her. "What did he do to you?"

"Let me see: blackmail, humiliation and annoying the crap out of me! He is even trying to teach my son on how to disobey me!" Naruto grumbled.

"So do you think she deserves to die?" She asked, tilting her head. It would be curious for her to see what this little boy would think. People always had mixed thoughts about it. Some people would say she deserved to die for her actions while others believed she deserved jail.

Choji paused and flickered his eyes to the blond-haired woman. "You know now that we know it is you, it is kind of twisted of you to ask Tsuna about this."

"Naruto has a very complicated mind if you asked me," Tsuna agreed. "When she asked me this question, it felt like she was testing me and looking at what she had done…it was a test."

The blonde bobbed her head. "You aren't wrong."

Was this boy capable of being fierce?

"He is when you push him far enough," Naruto replied. Everyone blinked and swirled their heads at the brown-haired male, who beamed slightly at the comment from the blonde. The Hokage raised his eyebrow and locked eyes on the male, who looked too much like Minato.

Tsuna grinned. "So you approve of the way I do things now?"

"When you do it smartly and take the advice from Kyoya, me and Mukuro," Naruto replied. The genin blinked and stared at the two adults with confusion. The whiskered woman leaned back on the couch. "If you just listen to Gokudera then you would have made a few mistakes."

"I don't understand why we have to listen to Mukuro when he can potentially betray us," Gokudera grumbled.

The blonde rolled her eyes. "Do you know who you sound like right now?"

Green eyes widened and the male grunted at her. There was a reason for her getting very close to the male because unless they wanted a repeat of what Mammon experienced in Konoha. While the Vongola Familigia were not a hidden village, there was always a chance for discrimination.

"Who does Gokudera sound like?" Shikamaru asked with a frown.

Naruto smiled thinly. "Like an arrogant asshole who can't get rid of his bigoty for the greater good for everyone."

Her eyes landed onto the Third Hokage and the man had the feeling that Naruto knew more than she was talking about. It was impossible but Naruto always had the habit of finding out things. He grimaced. If she did know anything then there was only a few people that fit the description.

The brown-haired boy shook his head. "Why would she deserve to die? N-No one deserves to die."

"You can't believe that," Sasuke growled, swirling his head at Tsuna. The adult sweated and looked at the whiskered woman to deal with her future subordinate. Naruto shrugged. There was nothing that she could do to talk sense to him. Telling him about the truth of his brother was going to break his mind.

She sighed. "Sasuke, what if I tell you that if you kill without backing up your facts then you look and feel like a fool?"

"What if I have the facts?" He retorted. Kakashi blinked at the questions while Sakura looked at the two of them with confusion. Why was her teammate so willing to listen to the blonde? When it came to her or Kenshin, he wouldn't even willing to talk to them. He talked to her slightly more than Kenshin.

Kyoya eyed him. "Doublecheck them."

"Listen to Kyoya," the blonde chirped. "He knows the price of being impulsive."

Sasuke blinked.

Now that was interesting.

"Do you really believe that?" She leaned her body forward and stared at her classmate. "If I tell you that someone betrayed your trust and manipulated you to do a crime, would you say that person deserved to live? If you were a child who had been abused, do you think their abusers deserved to live?"

"Naruto, have you been abused?" Tsuna asked, sweating at the knowledge that his distant family member had been hurt to such a level. The whiskered woman kept quiet while Kyoya grunted. Yamamoto eyed her with her concern and the blonde grunted at them.

"I spent the first 12 years of my life abused and my life could have been worse," the blonde answered. "Choji read before I have to punch Tsuna for being a busybody."

Choji gulped.

Tsuna gulped and his whole body trembled as her blue eyes observed him. Only one of the questions fitted her. The other question was one that she always regretted. There was a time she thought just like him. But Mizuki-sensei changed her. He showed her what she really was and for that she would always be grateful for him.

"You know if Mizuki was alive, I think Haku and me will have an enjoyable time of hurting him," Yamamoto commented with a grin. "But we might need to let Hinata to take a shot at him before we get to hurt him."

Naruto eyed him before flickering her eyes at Kyoya. "I think there is someone else who wants to torture him besides you."

"Yeah he has a bigger right," Yamamoto agreed. The genins blinked and just darted their eyes between the two adults, trying to understand of what those two were talking about. They glanced at Kyoya and squeaked when the male narrowed his eyes at them. It was hard for them to talk. "We are lucky Minoru and Lambo aren't here."

"Minoru would ask a lot of questions," Naruto agreed. "And I have no idea of how to explain things to him."

"But there is a reason we have jail," Tsuna frowned. "If a person have the evidence then the right person could go to jail and abusers…well they will go to jail too if someone reported them. A person should never kill even for those reasons."

"You are a pacifist," Iruka commented. Tsuna smiled nervously and bobbed his head before flickering his eyes to Naruto, who only sighed at him. There was nothing for her to say. The man had killed before but he had never enjoyed killing before. Not after his third time of killing people, had her distant relative ever gotten used to killing people.

Tsuna sighed. "It is a bad trait to have in my line of work."

"What do you work as?" The Hokage asked.

The brown-haired teen grimaced. "You find out but the other candidates for the job had something holding them back."

Naruto hummed.

And that is where we are different.

"There are people who have killed for less," Naruto shrugged her shoulders and pulled out her book. "You know one of the characters in this book killed her sister because of jealously. That is an even worse reason, don't you think? I think that jealous sister should just die for her actions but do you still think she deserve to live?"

"You are reading very horrible books," Ino said, frowning. "Don't you want to read books that makes you happy?"

Naruto shrugged. "Well they did have happy endings and there were some books that gave ideas of politics."

How could she have ideas of what happened in Konoha if it weren't for her books? There were male characters or female characters betrayed by family members. There were some characters betrayed by their own government but of course it would be a terrible idea for her to say it now.

Tsuna nodded. "Nothing will ever change my mind."

"I tried," Naruto sighed.

Tsuna frowned. "I can't numb myself like how you, Mukuro or even Yamamoto can do it."

"If Reborn was here, he would put a gun to your head," Yamamoto commented lightly. "You remember how he made you do things that you don't like?"

The brown-haired teen pulled a face. "I have Naruto to do the job now."

"He is only conditioned to Reborn," the whiskered woman frowned. It was terrible when she thought about it since it made difficult for her to get the male to listen. At one point, she tried the idea of disguising herself as Reborn but Tsuna knew the difference between them rather quickly.

She guessed it was because she forgot Reborn's mannerism.

What a boring way to think. Naruto nodded her head and slipped her book into her desk before flickering her eyes to the window. Blue eyes widened at the sight of a toddler watching them with a notebook on hand and a pair of binocular in another hand. His black eyes seemed focused on them and there was a smirk playing on his lips.

"Who the hell is that toddler?" Sakura asked, knitting her eyebrows together. The toddler looked so adorable if you asked her and the pink-haired girl looked at the adults. All five adults looked so solemn and stared at him with a sadness that made her sweat. She looked at the other genins, who all frowned at them.

Naruto sighed. "A pain in the ass."

"He was the devil," Tsuna agreed.

Gokudera nodded. "A great person."

"He was fun," Yamamoto added. "He made the Mafia Game so fun."

Tsuna and Gokudera swirled their heads at the smiling male while Naruto cracked a smile at the comment.

Only one thought ran through Naruto's mind:

Who was the toddler observing?

"So we are done with the chapter," Choji said, clearing his throat. "Who wants to read the next chapter?"

Tsuna smiled. "I will read the next chapter."


A/N: So Naruto's parents will come in later on the story and for all those wondering about Hinata, she and the members of Team Eight will come later on the story. Now here is a question: would you like to see Reborn and the other arcobaleno? Or what other characters do you wish to see in this story? Do tell me of your thoughts on this chapter.
