Konohagakure no Fujin

It was a dark and gloomy night. An eerie sense of death hung around the village, weighing down on people. Many mutilated bodies were taken away, to be given a proper funeral. Medics were running around the campus, healing whoever they could, some occasionally stopping to take a soldier pill. Among these casualties lay the 4th Hokage, pale and cold, as his soul had been ripped from his body by the Death God, Shinigami. Clasped in his arms, was his baby child, Naruto, who had a seal, glowing on his stomach. Standing near the body, two hands reached down, and lifted the baby up.

"Why did he have to seal it into his own son? Doesn't he know what sort of life a Jinchuuriki leads?"

Sarutobi turned around, and looked at his student, the Gama Sannin Jiraiya. He gently shook his head, and gently rocked the baby.

"Please, at least let me take him away with me, I can train him away from this village, and he won't be killed within the first few years of his life. I know that I might not be the best choice, but at least I can guarantee his safety," pleaded Jiraiya.

"I'm so sorry Jiraiya, but Minato's wish was for him to be raised in the village and treated as a hero," said Sarutobi.

"I can't believe you sensei. You would let his child stay here and rot in this village?"Jiraiya shook his head, "Fine, you won't be seeing me for a long time, sensei," and with that vanished off into the night with a shunshin.

~Time Skip~

Sarutobi carried the baby to a crib that his wife had set up for him. He gently placed Naruto into the crib, and then stood up tall.

"What is it?"

An Anbu appeared right next to him, bowing before him.

"Sir, the council has called a meeting and would like you to be there as quickly as you can,"

Sarutobi pondered. Why would the council call a meeting now? Surely they would be at home mourning the dead or celebrating the demon was killed?

"I understand, I will be there as soon as possible"

The Anbu nodded, and disappeared once again in a blur of darkness.

Sarutobi sighed. It was time to face his so-called advisors and teammates once again. He performed the ram hand seal, and also vanished like the Anbu, but in a puff of smoke.

~In the Council Room~

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath, and then walked in through the double doors that led to the council room. As he entered, shouts greeted him, screaming for him to kill the demon as soon as he could, and why he hadn't disposed of him yet.

"SILENCE!" shouted Sarutobi, having heard enough. He looked furious. Next to him, his teammates Koharu and Homura looked frightened. Knowing their teammate well enough, they were wise enough to keep silent while he was angry, as he was an incredibly strong shinobi even for their standards. Currently he looked as though he was about to turn red.

"We will not be killing the boy, Minato's last wish was for him to be treated as a hero, yet you want to kill him? You might as well spit on Minato's body, for he would be ashamed to see any of you like this. I will also create a new law, a S-rank law. The knowledge of Naruto being a Jinchuuriki will be hidden from your children. If any of you attack him in anyway, then you are liable to be executed straight away."

This speech stunned most of the shinobi clans, but the civilians weren't as afraid.

"I propose that we keep him under guard at all costs, so we know when the seals breaks free, and make sure that he doesn't contaminate anyone," declared the Haruno head.

Before Sarutobi could make an answer, a voice from behind him cut forward, and spoke for him.

"Don't act in haste, you stupid woman, you know nothing about shinobi affairs, I believe. You are a civilian with no ninja knowledge yet you wish to make decisions for this shinobi village? We could have you executed for treason!"

Sarutobi turned around, grateful to the one who had just come in. An old man, with a bandaged eye and a bandaged arm. He had dark brown hair, and his other eye was half open, half closed. In his right hand, was it a cane that he clasped to walk properly? He carried himself with authority.

"Danzo, thank God you've come. I propose that I drop Naruto off at the orphanage, and then let him attend the academy once he grows old eno..."

"I didn't come here to agree with you, Sarutobi. In fact, I came here to argue with you. I think that the boy should come with me, to be trained to the highest degree, and I will allow him to keep in contact with other people in Ne who will act as his family, and train him to be strong."

Now both civilian council and shinobi council turned to look at him.

A brave council member, who was rather fat and greedy, stood up and said,

"Why can't we just kill the de-Urgh"

Danzo had his hand in an extended position, and those who followed Danzo's arm movement, realised that Danzo had just thrown a kunai and killed the council member without flinching.

"Ne, remove this body and the rest of the civilian council before I lose control, NOW," as members of Ne appeared from the shadows of the room, and shunshined out with the civilians. Now all the people that remained were the clan heads. This included the Inuzuka clan, the Yamanaka clan, the Akimichi clan, the Nara clan, the Aburame clan, the Hyuuga clan and the Uchiha clan.

"Danzo, you had no authority to do that. Only the Hokage is allowed to do something like that, and the fact that you failed to mention that Ne still exists after you told me personally that you had disbanded it, what makes you think that I won't have you executed where you are standing?"

Danzo grinned. He knew that he was actually not allowed to keep his Ne, however, he knew that his old friend Sarutobi was way too gently, and would never consider harming one of his old friends and teammates.

"I'm sorry Hiruzen, but it was necessary to take such precautions. My Ne are the elite of the elite, having barely any emotions and answer only to me. They are loyal and are very strong, close to my level, in fact. They were created just in case of war and emergencies. Who else did you think would be able to restrain the Kyuubi, even if only for a few minutes? Some of your top Jounin and Anbu had failed to even cause a tiny wound on that demon, but my men were capable enough. I had told you before; I have and always will continue to guard Konoha from the shadows."

Sarutobi groaned inwardly. He always knew, some kind of gut feeling always told him that Ne was still active. He would expect such a thing from his old rival; he knew that Danzo would never give up despite what he said. It just simply seemed what he would do, Danzo was really surprising.

"Very well Danzo, I realise that what you have been doing had been to guard Konoha, to act in the best wishes of our village, however, I honestly believe that you should abandon it now, and hand over your agents, along with what they were called, so they can lead a normal life. Let us, the shinobi council, have a vote, whether to make Naruto a weapon or not. I, the Hokage, vote NO."

All the clan heads looked at each other from across the table. Such matters would be troublesome to think about, thought one certain lazy Nara.

"I Danzo vote YES, for Naruto Uzumaki to become part of Ne, to be trained to become elite."

"How dare you say such a thing? I cannot believe that you would want to kill of the emotions of this young pup, just because he has had a demon sealed inside him. Don't you think he has had enough for one night? I vote NO," shouted Tsume Inuzuka.

"Troublesome, but I too vote No, because I want to honour the 4th's wishes," said the lazy Nara Shikaku.

"I'm going to follow my friend here like I always do," said the Akimichi head.

"I'm sorry, guys but I'm going to have to agree with Danzo on this one, I can't let him endanger my family or my clan," said the Yamanaka clan

"I believe that it will be completely illogical for us to create a weapon out of us as logic clearly shows that he will not survive well in the world if he was raised to be a weapon at such a young age. I vote NO," deduced the Aburame head.

"The Hyuuga clan has always been loyal to the Hokage ever since this village was founded, however, we will have to make an exception for this. We have lost many clansmen to the demon, and we wish for it to be dead, however, if that is not the case, we would like to be able to use him as a weapon to turn on other villages should they choose to attack us. I believe that we should have him over to Danzo, who will not only look after the boy from any other potential attackers, he can also teach Naruto to defend for himself. So, I'm sorry Lord Hokage, but it seems as though the Hyuuga clan will agree with Danzo this once."

"The Uchiha Clan also agrees with the Hyuuga clan, despite our differences. We believe that Naruto can be moulded into a perfect shinobi, and we would like to see that. Also, we believe that he could potentially control the Kyuubi. We will vote YES"

Sarutobi looked desperate now. The vote was currently in favour of Naruto living a normal life 5-4 but Koharu and Homura still had to vote. He was hoping that the two of them would watch his back like they had done for the past 50 years. He sent them a pleading glance.

"I'm so sorry Sarutobi, but I know that what you are asking for would be impossible. I have been your teammate for so long, so I understand what you are talking about, and I understand where you are coming from, however, I believe that he is too dangerous to be allowed to roam around Konoha, so I am going to have to vote YES." Homura gave Koharu a sideway glance, who had just spoken. Sarutobi was getting even more desperate, with the tie being 5-5. He turned his plead to Homura, who sighed and looked away.

"I'm sorry Saru. I know where you are coming from, and I also know what Danzo is talking about. Both of you have very valid points. I believe that Danzo is better, because he can do whatever he wants. He can looks after Naruto, and train him to become an elite, to become one of the best. The only other people that are capable of offering that are you, the Hokage, and the Sannin. Jiraiya is too busy with the spy network, Orochimaru has turned traitor, and the Slug Princess is out somewhere in the world, gambling away all her money. Danzo can also provide a temporary family for him from Roots. I vote YES."

Sarutobi stared helplessly, as he heard what his last teammate had announced. Now, it seemed that Naruto was doomed forever.

"Please Danzo, allow him to have the first three years of his childhood, i mean, he's a child, for God's sake, please i beg of you, let him led a normal life."

Danzo smirked as he rose up from the table, and shook his head. Now, the ultimate weapon was within his grasp, he liked the power and control he had, and he didn't want to let go. With that, he left the council room and headed off to collect Naruto.

Sarutobi could only stare outside of the room and into the dark night.

Minato, Kushina, I've failed you...

~Time skip 4 years~

Konoha was its usual busy self, recovering slowly but surely from the attack made by the Great Kyuubi. Meanwhile, under this common civilian banter, there was a ringing metallic sound of blades clashing against each other, each trying to overpower the other. There was a pause, and then a massive explosion as both combatants was propelled away due to the power used. Danzo raised an arm, and brushed off sheen of sweat that had started to appear on his face. Boy, could that boy use a sword. He was facing against a young 4 year old boy, who was his new protégée, and he was in the middle of his kenjutsu training. Naruto stood at a rather tall height for his age, around 4ft 5, and despite being so young, he was already showing the signs of pure muscle being developed. This was because ever since Naruto was able to walk, talk, move, think and speak, Danzo had immediately seized upon the boy being young, and started influencing the boy with his powerful words and strong language, bring the boy up in the way that Ne believed that all soldiers should have been brought up. He had already lost most of his emotions at the tender age of 3, and was training to become the perfect tool and weapon for Danzo. Surprisingly for Danzo, it appeared that Naruto was a natural genius. He was able to absorb all information that he was given not just by Danzo but by all of his other teachers. He had managed to unlock his chakra and be able to use it by the age of 1, and better still, completed the two basic academy techniques at the age of 2. However, despite his prowess, for some strange reason, Naruto had never been able to perform the Bunshin no Jutsu. Naruto had been placed through a vigorous and thorough teaching exercise that even his toughest Ne may not have been able to complete. Naruto was headstrong, and very determined, getting straight back up after he had been knocked down.

Naruto's skill and physical prowess grew larger and greater as he grew older, and soon, Danzo knew that he would have nothing left to teach the boy. Hell, even some things that he himself didn't know, Naruto had already learnt. He was capable of using a sword to match Danzo strike for strike, and deliver a few cheeky strikes of his own at the age of 4 and that was no small feat in itself, as Danzo was known to be the strongest swordsmen in the whole of Konoha, and second the world to none other than Killer Bee, and the Seven Swordsmen.

Naruto also demonstrated incredible talent in using not only swords, but in any other sharp weapon. He had been capable of killing anything with something that had an edge, even if it was blunt. Danzo himself was struggling to keep Naruto at bay, as his sword flashed in the light, and even then, Naruto had gravity seals and restriction seals on him.

Naruto also demonstrated his genius when learning ninjutsu. To Danzo's great surprise and joy, he learnt that Naruto was Futon Natured. Over the next year, Naruto had been trained extensively in the use of wind jutsu by Danzo himself. Danzo had also taught Naruto the Kage Bunshin Jutsu to help speed up his training speed. Naruto proved to be a natural, mastering all the wind jutsu that Danzo knew and could find from his spy in Sunagakure. Danzo had even taken the liberty of training Naruto in his person manipulation of wind, vacuum manipulation.

Danzo was sure now, that if he placed his ultimate weapon against Uchiha Itachi, the hailed prodigy, or against Hatake Kakashi, the Copycat Ninja, they would be forced to go out. Either they would draw in a stalemate, or in the best conditions, Naruto would be able to kill them. Danzo grinned.

"Enough, Naruto, stand down and return to your chambers. You have had enough Kenjutsu training for today. Prepare in 15 minutes for a trip.

Naruto immediately sheathed his head, and bowed to Danzo, before vanishing into the darkness of the underground.

Danzo grinned. He was going to take Naruto on a training trip outside of Konoha, to his old family home, who were famous for their Fuinjutsu. He hoped that by learning such Fuinjutsu, Naruto would be able to become the next seal master for his generation. It would also mean that Naruto had grown incredibly strong, matching the 3rd Hokage, known to be the Professor, as he had covered all aspects of being a shinobi. And what could he say? Naruto was quickly growing into that position. Strong Ninjutsu that was of wind nature, (Hmmm, perhaps i should start working on a second chakra nature perhaps?), decent genjutsu that allowed him to dispel any genjutsu A-rank and below, and perform quite a few Genjutsu, making a few that even Kurenai, the Genjutsu mistress didn't know, strong Taijutsu and incredible Kenjutsu. His Taijutsu was the humming bird style, the one that the Yondaime used. He combined it with the Goken, Gai's style and the style that the 4th Raikage, A, used to use before he invented the Raiton No Yoroi. He truly was an incredible shinobi. Danzo grinned and shunshined away. It was time for him to pack, and take Naruto along with a few other Ne operatives with him to go to Whirlpool.

~Time skip 3 years~

Three years had gone by since Naruto had gone to visit the Land of the Whirlpool, where his ancestors laid. Naruto had created a few thousand shadow clones to go through the remains, and managed to find a shrine that only one of the Uzumaki blood could open. Inside was what many shinobi would kill for. There were only 5 scrolls, however, upon reaching them, his eyes had widened. Each scroll contained jutsu for Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, Kenjutsu, Taijutsu and Fuinjutsu. He had managed to decipher it with his intelligence, and managed to take it even further, to a level that Danzo didn't even have a clue of what he was doing.

His shinobi skills had skyrocketed. His Ninjutsu repertoire had increased from not only wind, but to water, as that had been his second chakra nature. Luckily for him, all the Uzumakis were of water elements, and had hundreds of water techniques inside, that he had recently been able to master. His wind manipulation had increased to the point where he was even capable of slicing Danzo's vacuum manipulation in half.

His Taijutsu had gone up by far, so that anyone outside of Might Gai and Sarutobi would be annihilated when fighting in combat with him. His Taijutsu was called, Storm style, as he was unpredictable, yet it relied on incredibly fast strikes, and capable of fighting many enemies. He had created 5 or 6 different Katas for both defensive and offensive purposes. Danzo knew that it would only be a matter of time before Naruto would be able to surpass the 4th Raikage in taijutsu.

His Genjutsu hadn't improved as much as Danzo had hoped, as he could still only dispel A rank and below genjutsu and could perform only a few A-rank and quite a lot of B-ranks, as well as creating his own S-rank Genjutsu.

His Kenjutsu was astounding, Naruto was forced to fight at 10% when sparring against Danzo, Uzuki Yuugao and Gekkou Hayate, who were all sword masters, yet he still always managed to fight it to a tie, if not winning by a tiny bit.

Finally, his Fuinjutsu was incredible. He had recently found and recreated a seal that allowed him to use something that only 2 or 3 shinobi had ever been able to use, Jikukan Ninjutsu, or Space-Time Ninjutsu. Naruto went even further than the 4th himself, creating a seal that allowed him to phase out of attacks when he wished, and also to such a degree, he could phase out a part of his body. He had also created an anti-space-time seal that allowed him to reverse such effects should he face anyone else capable of using Jikukan.

However, despite all these incredible statistics, Naruto had a trump card that no-one else had, no matter how hard they worked. He held the Kyuubi, a being of mass destruction. When Naruto was 4, he was capable of contacting the Kyuubi, and was able to overpower him at the age of 6. He had already been able to master the three tailed state of V1. Now, with more years under his grasp, he was fully able of controlling the Kyuubi in V1 and in V2, so he was now capable of transforming into the full tailed demon if it was required. Through Naruto asking the Kyuubi what caused it to attack Konoha that night, allowed Danzo to be more cautious and monitor the Uchiha clan in case they chose to do a coup d'état. Danzo decided that he had to up Naruto's training to an even greater degree so that he would be able to fight Madara and defeat him.

Naruto was already starting to be known in the world as Konohagakure no Fujin, the Wind God of Konoha. He had been known for ruthlessly killing anyone that opposed him using wind techniques to the highest degree, such as cutting the Katon: Karyu Endan No Jutsu in half, which was an incredible feat in itself, as it was one of the strongest fire techniques. He had been given high level mission that most of Ne could not even dream about completing. At the tender age of 7, he had a kill count of above 2000, without expressing any emotions after killing them. He was a demon, as in all his missions, he eliminated everyone with wind techniques, and made a huge pool of blood where they were all killed.

One of the most dangerous missions that Danzo had sent Naruto on was the assassination mission of killing Hanzo of the Salamander, and his family.

Flashback

Naruto entered the Hidden Rain Village using his deception skills and henged into a frog that attached itself to someone that was walking in. After getting in, he jumped off, and released the transformation. He walked around for a bit , noticing the poverty that Hanzo had created. Everyone there had glum looks, as if wishing that they were already dead. Despite having being trained to bottle away his emotions, Naruto couldn't help but feel a sort of stirring inside him, longing for him to punish Hanzo. Naruto turned around, and shunshined to where Hanzo was living.

"Hanzo of the Salamander, come forth, for i challenge you to a fight, a one-on-one duel."

For a moment, everything was silent. Then suddenly, KUCHIYOSE NO JUTSU, and a huge salamander was summoned. It was about 200ft tall, and was very scaly. On top of such a grotesque beast, was Hanzo himself, with his breathing mask.

Naruto stared forward, before shooting off towards Hanzo. Hanzo leapt off his summon, and ran forward to engage Naruto in a Taijutsu fight. The two exchanged blow after blow, but Naruto had the upper hand. Suddenly, Naruto cried KAI, and released his gravity 's eyes widened. Suddenly, Naruto blurred out of sight and appeared right in front of Hanzo, and let off a devastating right hook, one that made Hanzo cough blood into his breathing device. Naruto continued, with an unrelenting barrage of combos using his feet, hands and elbows. It was devastating, as Hanzo flew back, spluttering blood. Naruto landed back on his two feet, and flipped backwards twice. Hanzo stood up, panting heavily. Who was this boy who could do so much damage to him that even the Sannin in their prime couldn't do? It seemed as though he wanted a ninjutsu fight. If he wanted a ninjutsu fight, then he certainly was going to get one.

Naruto started it off. With no hand seals what so ever, he smashed his stomach and cried,

Futon: Renkuudan

Suiton: Suiryuudan No Jutsu

Despite using a jutsu that was of a high rank, Naruto's easily smashed through the water dragon, but Hanzo jumped on top of his Salamander, avoiding the deadly wind bullet.

Futon: Furyuudan No Jutsu

A huge wind dragon appeared in front of Naruto, growing to about 70ft tall and about 40ft in diameter, before smashing itself deep into the summon, forcing it to dispel itself or else it would have been seriously hurt. Hanzo growled. Not only did he manage to stop his summon, but to make a wind dragon? Even the masters in Sunagakure had trouble in making one so huge.

Naruto didn't stop there;

Suiton: Suikodan No Jutsu

Futon: Daitoppa No Jutsu

Naruto combined the two attacks to form an incredibly fast water shark that cut the ground beneath it. Hanzo cursed, before drawing his Kusarigama. Naruto inwardly cursed, knowing that this particular sickle was covered in poison. Hanzo, covering his blade with chakra, sliced straight through the attack, before speeding straight at Naruto, who looked surprised, before Hanzo decapitated him. Many of the people in the village had gathered to watch the fight, as they were hoping that they could be freed from his Tyranny. Time seemed to slow down, as Naruto's body was cut in half. Hanzo smirked, before widening his eyes. It had been a Mizu Bunshin! Suddenly, a sharp blade was plunged into his chest where his heart was, before ripping itself out brutally. Hanzo stayed standing for a few seconds, before finally collapsing on the ground. He turned around to see his conqueror.

"Who are you?" asked Hanzo

"I am a weapon for my master, Danzo, and i am here to discard of you as you have become too corrupt and powerful to be allowed to live."

With that, Naruto sliced Hanzo's head off, and sealed it into a scroll. He then created 5 Kage Bunshin's before sending them towards Hanzo's mansion. Naruto then saw a scroll in Hanzo's pocket. It was the summoning contract for the Salamanders! His master would be pleased. With that, he left with one hand seal. As Naruto shunshined away, an explosion rocked the village, as Hanzo's mansion was destroyed by Naruto's Bunshin Daibakuha.

Flashback end

After that mission, Danzo had been expecting Naruto to come back with lots of cuts and bruises, but when he came back covered in blood, but wasn't bleeding, Danzo knew that he had bred the perfect weapon. After seeing that he had brought back the Salamander summoning contract as well, he had allowed Naruto to keep it, and to sign it, along with his own person contract, the Baku. Naruto had been grateful, to a certain extent of not showing any emotion outside, and had trained with both summons as well as he could ,so that he was capable of using both summons well enough for battle, and as well as Hanzo could fight with his salamander.

Now, Danzo was found in his underground lair, with a young boy with blue eyes and blonde hair, at the height of about 5ft5, kneeling in front of him with a kitsune mask on.

"Kitsune, here i will give you the greatest mission i have ever given you, or will ever give you, i believe. This mission is to allow Uchiha Itachi to kill the rest of the Uchiha clan, as they are planning a coup d'état, but i would like you to focus on killing and bring me the head of Madara Uchiha, as i have been informed that Itachi has been training with him before, so that he could become strong enough to kill his clan."

"Very well master. After he has exterminated his clan, should he be exterminate as well, Master?"

"No need, Kitsune, i need Itachi to go as Black Ops, to go undercover in a very powerful organization that i am not sure about yet. Leave him alone, but kill Madara. Is that understood?"

"Perfectly, Danzo-sensei."

With that, Naruto vanished in a blur of yellow light.
