The Narutimate Senju

Summary: What happens when our favorite blonde jinchuuriki has the Yellow Flash and the Slug Sannin as parents? A Naruto that Konoha doesn't quite know how to deal with. Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or any of it's characters, ok?

Chapter 1: Return Of The Senju

Five individuals can be seen walking on the road towards Konoha. The guards on duty at the massive gates of the hidden village looks up to see who the people coming towards them were.

Easily recognizable by his long white hair, red vest and bone headpiece with the word oil inscribed on it was the Toad Sage Kazama Jiraiya while the Slug Sage Senju Tsunade was the blonde woman with the diamond shaped mark on her forehead, green jacket with the word gamble on the back and the massive mammaries. Both were known as two of the legendary Sannin together with the traitorous Snake Sage Orochimaru.

Their three companions however, two adult female and a young teenaged male, were not as easily identifiable.

The one carrying a red vested piglet is a pretty but plain looking woman with short black hair and wore a black kimono.

The female wearing the grey cloak to conceal her figure is a fiery redhead with green eyes that sparkled with mischief.

The youngest and final member of the group is a blonde haired, blue eyed teen with what seems like whisker marks on his cheeks and who wore an orange vest over a black kimono.

For some reason, the blonde reminded the gatekeepers of someone relatively well known though they couldn't quite figure out exactly who.

"Welcome back Jiraiya Sama! Tsunade Sama! Hokage Sama has been expecting you." One of the gatekeepers greeted who recieves a muttered thanks from the Toad Sage. He then looks at the other three individuals with the two Sannin. "Umm... May we know who your companions are?"

"Oh sorry 'bout that." Jiraiya said as he gestures towards one of the females in his group. "This redhead is a student of mine. I'm sure you've heard of the 'Red Hot Habanero' Uzumaki Kushina." He said, causing the eyes of the gatekeepers to widen. Of course they've heard of Kushina who was almost as well known as her former teammate, the Yondaime Hokage for her skill as a kunoichi as well as her fiery temper which earned her the nickname. But during the night of Kyuubi's attack, she had mysteriously vanished and thought to be lost... Till now.

"This other lovely lady right here is Tsunade's apprentice, Kato Shizune." Jiraiya introduced the other woman. The guards were vaguely aware that Tsunade had indeed taken on an apprentice before she left Konoha and Shizune must've been that apprentice.

The other gatekeeper then turns his attention to the young blonde with the party. "And what about this little boy here? Who might he be?"

The said boy had a tick mark on his forehead as he snaps back. "Who the hell are you calling a little boy? I'm almost fourteen asshole!" He was then sent crashing face face to the ground via a flick from Tsunade's finger causing everyone to sweatdrop at the sight.

"You'll have to excuse him. He's a little sensitive about his height you see." Tsunade explained before hauling him back up to face the gatekeepers. "Now introduce yourself and apologize for your behavior."

"Why should I you old hag? They were the ones who..." The blonde stops at the look that Tsunade was giving him and sighs in resignation. "Fine. My name is Senju Naruto and I am Senju Tsunade's son. I'm sorry for what I said to you a while ago." He apologized before turning back to his mother. "There. You happy now?"

The gatekeepers were now openly gaping at the now revealed son of the Slug Sage. This was certainly major news which was sure to rock the village to it's core.

Tsunade noticed the look that the gatekeepers were giving her son so she turned to address them.

"I'd appreciate it if you don't go spreading the news about my son just yet gentlemen. We'd like to enjoy our privacy for a little while longer if that's alright?" The fact that she had said this with an ominously terrifying expression prompted the gatekeepers to quickly nod their head in agreement. "Good. Shall we go see Sarutobi Sensei now?" She said cheerfully as she and her companions started walking towards the Hokage Tower and leaving the gatekeepers to stare at the retreating forms.

(Hokage Tower)

The Sandaime Hokage couldn't help but chuckle at what went down at the front gate which he watched through his viewing globe from the comfort of his office. It was refreshing to watch Tsunade like that even though it utterly terrified even him.

But then again, it was good to see her more or less back to her old self after years of grieving. A lesser woman would've broken a long time ago from all the loss she had suffered but somehow, motherhood had strengthened her.

Naruto was a gift to her. The product of a drunken night of passion between the Slug Sage and surprisingly, Jiraiya's own student and future Yondaime Hokage, Namikaze Minato after Tsunade decided to drown her grief in sake from losing both Nawaki and Dan. Nonetheless, theirs was a successful albeit unusual may-december affair made even more joyous with Minato's installment as Hokage and the birth of Naruto nine months later.

But the couple's joy was to be short lived. Kyuubi had attacked the village only a few days after Naruto's birth after it's jinchuuriki, Uzumaki Kushina was found with near fatal injuries from it's forced extraction from her. The shinobi force had suffered massive casualties in the attack and the only way to defeat the biju was to re-seal it into someone else. Preferably an infant child.

But Minato couldn't ask anyone else to sacrifice their child for it so, despite Tsunade's protests, he sealed Kyuubi into his infant son Naruto using a forbidden technique and at the cost of his own life. But before he had expired, Minato told the Sandaime that he wanted the villagers to treat his son as a hero.

But it was not to be so.

Sarutobi did not anticipate the mindset of a grieving village recovering from Kyuubi's attack. So when the Sandaime informed the village of Naruto's status as the current jinchuuriki, many called for his death and it only took the declaration of martial law to silence the mobs crying out for his blood.

But things did not stop there. Attempts were now being made to kill the infant jinchuuriki by the deluded who thought that killing 'it' would save the village and turn them into heroes.

They did not count on the defense of Naruto's enraged Sannin mother and her formidable new apprentice or a fight from a recovering ex-jinchuuriki. Between the three women, all assassination attempts on Naruto were utterly destroyed.

Finally, Tsunade decided that enough was enough. She packed up her belongings and, together with Shizune and Kushina, left Konoha in order to protect her son and to keep herself from killing any more of the fools who were planning any action against Naruto.

Considering the damage she did, Sarutobi agreed to Tsunade's decision. Had she stayed, she would've gladly leveled Konoha in defense of her son.

Sarutobi was reinstated as Hokage but knew that he couldn't keep the jackals at bay forever. With this in mind, he designated Tsunade as his successor and made her promise that she will return once she feels that her son is strong enough to handle his own affairs.

Taking a puff from his pipe, Sarutobi allowed himself to smile. Now that Tsunade is back, they can finally begin to implement the reforms badly needed by Konoha. And as embarrassed as he is to admit it, the Slug Sage can't be easily swayed by words or even threats unlike him.

A knock on the door cuts snaps him back to reality.

"Come in." Sarutobi instructed. As the party entered the office, the Sandaime had to admit that Tsunade still looked quite impressive and the thought of her sitting behind the desk instead of him felt... Right.

But considering her pedigree having the Shodaime and Nidaime Hokage in her family tree, she was practically born for the job.

"Tsunade. It's been so long." Sarutobi said as he stood and embraced his former student. "How have you been?"

"Doing just great sensei." She answered with a smile. "You're not doing to badly yourself. Are you sure you really want me to take your place already?"

"Hohoho! Even though I can still do this for another ten years, I'm afraid I no longer have the patience to deal with paperwork or politics. I just might murder somebody if I had to deal with this any longer." Sarutobi answered.

"Then you better be ready with a lot of bodybags old man." Kushina said cheekily. "Tsunade Sama here ain't much better."

Sarutobi had to smile as he turns to the ex jinchuuriki. The redheaded ex Black Ops had been discovered near death with the biju extracted from her by her fellow ANBU and only the timely intervention from both Jiraiya and Tsunade had saved her life. "Kushina. You're looking healthy as well."

"Thanks to Jiraiya Sensei and Tsunade Sama I am." Kushina said before her face fell. "But still... If I didn't let my guard down... Minato Kun would've..."

"Kushina San..." Shizune whispered sadly, aware of how close the redhead and the Yondaime were even though the blonde Hokage eventually ended up with her master.

"Stop it Kushina." Jiraiya snaps, glancing nervously at Tsunade. "If the culprit behind Kyuubi's extraction from you was who we think it is, then there's nothing you could've done anyways."

Sarutobi's eyes widens in alarm at Jiraiya's mention of the biju. "Jiraiya! You shouldn't talk about such things in front of..."

"...In front of me, jiisan?" Naruto supplied, speaking up for the first time. "Don't worry about a thing. I've known about Kyuubi for years now. It's not really a big deal to me."

Sarutobi then looks at Tsunade questioningly who simply answers. "My son has a right to know about this matter since it directly affects him. He's old enough to deal with it responsibly."

She then turns her attention to Kushina. "And how many times must I tell you Kushina? I don't blame you for what happened to Minato. He did what he had to do to protect Konoha. Don't get me wrong though coz I'll STILL kick his ass when I see him again in the afterlife."

"I see..." Sarutobi said as he calmly regarded Naruto before placing a hand on his shoulder. "That's quite a mature outlook for one so young. But I think that it's only fair to warn you that others in the village, especially those old enough to recognize you, might not be so accepting."

"I don't really care what they think." Naruto said flatly. "I have no time for people who don't even know the difference between a sealing scroll and a kunai." He looks up fondly at the old man he considered his surrogate grandfather who, despite his busy schedule, found time to visit their family on the road every once in a while. "Everything that's important is right here in this room. Nothing else matters to me."

"Now don't say that Naruto Kun." The Sandaime admonished gently but smiled inwardly. "It's already been thirteen years and people DO change. Who knows? You might find something else to cherish while you're here in Konoha."

"If people are still as pigheaded as Kaasan said, then I seriously doubt it." Naruto mutters.

"Don't worry about them brat." Tsunade assured her son. "That's the reason why sensei's leaving me in charge. He knows I can shake things up."

"Yeah. I'm still wondering if Jiisan was off his meds when he decided that." Naruto teased.

"What was that brat?" Tsunade growls and starts chasing her son around the office before Sarutobi puts a stop to the shennanigans by loudly clearing his throat.

"Anyways. It's time for us to get down to the business at hand." Sarutobi said seriously. "There's a lot of work to be done if we want to pull this off so let's begin, shall we?"

(Council Room)

"Exactly why is the full council called into session today anyways?" Yamanaka Inoichi asks his old friend and teammate Akimichi Chouza as the two took their places on the Shinobi Council together with their other old friend and teammate, Nara Shikaku and looks around the room. Everyone of importance was there from leaders of the civilian guilds to heads from both influential civilian and shinobi clans to the various division heads of the shinobi force. The Akimichi simply shrugs his shoulders. He was as much as in the dark as his blonde friend was.

Shikaku however, had his suspicions.

Rarely has the full council been called by the Hokage. But when he did, it usually meant one of two things. War or a major announcements which affects the entire village. And since they were not currently involved in any sort of major conflict, it had to be the second option.

But what could it be?

Shikaku didn't have to wait long. The council doors opens the Sandaime Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen enters minus the traditional Hokage's hat.

"Hiruzen. Why have you suddenly called the entire council into session? Has something happened?" Sarutobi's old kunoichi teammate and currently one of his advisors asks.

"Nothing for anyone to be overly concerned about." Sarutobi answered as he took his place at the front. "I called this meeting to simply inform you of a decision I have been thinking about for quite a while now. A decision about my future as Hokage."

Whisperings can be heard throughout the room about Sarutobi's announcement. Nobody knew what to make of what Sarutobi said.

"Excuse me Hokage Sama. But exactly what are you saying?" The Inuzuka head Tsume asks.

"What I'm saying Tsume is that I'm getting older and the rigors of the responsibility are starting to take their toll on me." Sarutobi said. "So effective immediately, I'm resigning from my post." This surprising announcement causes an uproar in the room until Sarutobi asks for silence so he can continue. "But don't worry. I have already chosen my successor and I can assure you that the one I chose is imminently qualified."

"But we have not been consulted on your choice." Another one of Sarutobi's old teammates named Homura pointed out. "How certain are you that your choice is the best one for the job?"

"I didn't feel the need to consult with anyone because I KNOW better than anyone that SHE has everything it takes to be Hokage." Sarutobi answered. "Enter. Godaime Hokage Sama."

The door is then thrown wide open and a large bosomed female wearing a green jacket with the word gamble on the back as well as the Hokage's hat on her head walks in and takes her place besides the Sandaime. She removes the hat and, much to the shock of everyone present, reveals her identity to all.

"It can't be." The ROOT leader and another advisor named Danzou whispers in disbelief and anger.

Senju Tsunade was now the Godaime Hokage.
