Naruto's day, was again, less than stellar. It didn't start off bad, After a couple of days recuperating from chakra exhaustion and Tsunade repairing the muscle tissue in his arm and leg with Kyuubi's help, Naruto was up and moving again. Ryuketsu was fine, just tired like the rest of the retrieval team. Each one of them having their own injuries being tended to, at least the retrieval team anyway, Ryuketsu's abdominal injuries were healed but only enough that he wasn't in pain, but Shizune was there to help if anything got worse.
What made his day so horrible? It was the fact that he was being called to appear before the council, they didn't specify on the reasons, but seeing as how Sasuke wasn't with them in the hospital, he had a gut feeling about why this was happening.
He entered the Council chambers, and sure enough, Sasuke was sitting on the sidelines, the civilian portion of the Council, which was mainly made of the top merchants and the heads of the more wealthy families, there purpose being to discuss Trade and the village Economy with the Hokage, were glaring at him and the Shinobi portion was glaring at the civilians. Tsunade sitting in the center of the stands with her fingers laced together under her chin, an annoyed look on her face. She sighed...
"Naruto Uzumaki, you have been called before this council to discuss your sentencing on the following accusations, attacking a fellow Konoha Ninja, use of deadly force on a Konoha Shinobi with the intent to kill, siding yourself with three enemy shinobi, which is considered a form of treason, how do you plead to these charges against you?" Tsunade asked in a bored tone. Honestly, if it wasn't for these civilian fucks gaining more power than they should ever have after Sarutobi's death, she could be at home right now, drinking sake and burning paperwork.
"Not guilty all on counts."
"And why do you say that?"
"For one, Sasuke isn't a Konoha Shinobi anymore, he renounced his status as a Konoha Shinobi before we started our battle, so I was using deadly force on a Missing-nin, which is permitted, and those three Shinobi probably saved my life, and renounced their allegiance to Otogakure beforehand, and that's all there is to it", Naruto said, shrugging his shoulders. Tsunade was rather impressed that he spoke and handled the situation so maturely.
"Uchiha-sama's side of this story tells us otherwise", a random council member said.
"Of fucking course it does", Naruto said. Tsunade saw that coming, and so did a Dog masked Anbu, appearing Shunshin with a chair, Naruto bumped fists with the Anbu and turned the chair around and sat down with his legs on both sides and his arms crossed on the back, "What did duck-ass tell ya?"
"You will show Uchiha-sama the proper respect Demon!" a rather fat Civilian said, only for a kunai to embed itself in the wood beside his head.
"The Sandaime's old laws are still in affect and as a Ninja, I'm considered an adult and can enforce said law myself" Naruto said, narrowing his eyes at the civilian council with a toothy grin on his face, "And I don't miss twice" This time he released a little Killing Intent (KI from now on). The Shinobi Council had their own reactions.
Tsume Inuzuka, matriarch of the Inuzuka Clan, bit her bottom lip and sunk her nails in to her arm with her arms crossed to stop herself from laughing seeing the frightened civilians ready to piss themselves. Kyuubi was laughing his ass off in his cage, the Previous Ino-Shika-Cho Trio, Inoichi Yamanaka, Shikaku Nara, and Chouza Akimichi were smirking and Hiashi Hyuuga, head of the Hyuuga Clan had the very faintest of small smiles on his face, Tsunade outright grinning, and Shibi Aburame was neutral.
"Uchiha-sama's said that he was merely retreating from the battle to mend his wounds that were caused by that red headed whore of an Oto Kunoichi and you chased after him, a short bout ensued before the two of you faced off. You deliberately cut his Hitae-ate in half so he would look like a Missing-Nin in our eyes and then attacked him, he was winning before you used some strange weapon and was ambushed by your three acquaintances, and was then rendered unconscious, what do you to say to that de...Boy", the fat civilian said with disdain, his face scrunched up as if that word had left a bitter taste in his mouth.
"I did cut his hitae-ate, not gonna lie about that, and there really is no point in telling my side of the story because you dumb fucks would call for my death if I so much as bumped in to the little prick on the streets and he sneezed, saying 'I infected him with a demonic germ' or some bullshit like that..." Naruto started.
"You tell'em Kit! Really lay in to them!", Kyuubi said from his cage.
"You have a Mind-reading Yamanaka on the council right now, since I know they don't particularly going in to my mind...Sorry Inoichi" Naruto said with a nod of his head. The blond clan head nodded his head to the blond Jinchuuriki, "Go in to the Uchiha's, you'll get the true story then" Naruto said.
"I'm afraid we can't do that..." Tsunade said.
"Why not Tsunade-sama, Naruto has a point, Inoichi will be able to get the truth" Shikaku said in a bored tone.
"Sasuke's Psychological reports have shown that there have been some counts of mental instabilities, and with Orochimaru's Curse Mark, we have no idea what could happen if Inoichi-san were to enter his mind, the repercussions could even be fatal to both of them due to some kind of fail-safe in the seal" Tsunade said.
"Then it is decided, the Boy cannot prove his word against the Uchiha and therefore we must put it to a vote, in accordance to the laws, attacking a fellow Shinobi is punishable by two means, the revocation of said Shinobi's license or death...unless...the boy were willing to pay the Uchiha for the damages caused, what would Uchiha-sama request" Sasuke smirked seeing that he was going to be getting his way...again.
"The two swords you used against me in our battle, Dobe, hand them over and I'll think about dropping the charges...and I'll even let you work as my servant if you end up losing your license".
"Kiss my ass, Teme" Naruto said. Sasuke sneered.
"DAMN SCUM! YOU WILL SHOW RESPECT TO YOUR SUPERIOR!", screamed the slightly anorexic pink haired woman, Sakari Haruno, Sakura Haruno's mother and voice, very high pitched voice of the Civilian Council. Tsume Inuzuka swayed for a moment; having advanced hearing when you're the closest to that woman meant certain deafness.
"The only 'Superiors' of mine here are those on the Shinobi Council, the Teme and I are the same rank, and you're just a civilian who has more power then she fucking should and I still have more authority than you really, so shut. the. fuck. up", Naruto said. Tsunade quickly silenced Sakari's oncoming screech.
"Those on the civilian council make convincing points, Hokage-sama, the boy has refused to pay compensation and is unable to prove his word otherwise against Sasuke Uchiha, and he has been prone to violent outbursts before, Tsunade-sama, many a civilian have been sent to the ER due to the injuries the boy inflicted on them, Banishment would be best" Homura Mitokado, one of the Hokage advisers stated.
"I second that" Koharu Utatane said.
Hiashi stood up and said something that shocked everyone, "I think I speak for the entirety of the Shinobi Council when I say, we oppose this". Shikaku was awake now, Tsume's jaw nearly came off its hinges, Inoichi and Chouza were definitely shocked, and Tsunade was too, but at the same time relieved, "Naruto Uzumaki has been nothing but an asset to this village, saving it from Gaara when he had transformed, stopping Mizuki from taking off with the Forbidden Scroll, and bringing your precious Uchiha after he defected, I rest my case" Hiashi sat down, clapping of a lone person echoed through the room.
"Damn Hiashi...Thanks" Naruto said as he stopped clapping.
"Besides, you civilian fucks won't be around much longer" a new voice joined them, the Council chamber doors opened to reveal Kimimaro and Tayuya, who was supporting Ryuketsu as he walked, the Chiton user had a black book with multiple page markers and corners sticking out.
"Anbu!" Homura yelled, multiple guards appeared to take them away.
"We just came here to talk, I know some things that would turn this little trial right around and get you little civilian fucks in quite a bit of trouble, Ryuketsu said with a grin, Tayuya and Kimimaro started blushing, having seen what was in said notebook not too long ago.
"...Anbu, step away but keep on guard" Tsunade said, the Anbu doing as their leader instructed and allowed the three of them to pass.
"This is ridiculous! Anbu, take those three prisoners away for public execution!" Koharu yelled, the Anbu didn't move, but Koharu was forced back in to her seat by an insane amount of KI baring down on her.
"I don't appreciate you trying to undermine my authority, Utatane-san, the consequences will be severe next time that happens", Tsunade said without even looking at the old woman.
"Ryu? What's going on?" Naruto asked.
"You gave Haku and Zabuza-Oji the burials they deserved, just repaying the debt that I owe" Ryuketsu said with a thumbs up. The civilian half was in an uproar while the Shinobi half was waiting to see what kind of dirt this kid had, Hiashi already looking the book with his Byakugan, he stopped after a few seconds, a deep red dusting his cheeks, and his brow furrowed at the same time.
"Tsunade-sama! You cannot be serious! They are the enemy Shinobi that attacked Uchiha-sama! They need to be executed now!" a civilian said, slamming his fists on the table.
"We didn't touch the prick, Now shut the fuck up Saito" Ryuketsu said, wincing slightly since his abdomen was completely healed. That silenced quite a few people.
"How, might I ask, Momochi-san, do you know his name, it was never mentioned in this meeting?" Tsunade inquired.
"I know more about your little civilian council and the little underhanded dealings they do then you d...Oops, I've said too much" the Chiton user said with an innocent smile, like a child trying to play off letting an important secret slip.
"No, please Momochi-san, Continue, I wish to hear more of these 'Dealings'", Tsunade said. The civilians were sweating inwardly, but remained calm as the little brat could easily be bluffing.
"First, I'll need Naruto Uzumaki's entire medical record, if that's not asking too much of you."
"By all means..."
"Oooh, Shizune-chan!", Ryuketsu said in sing-song voice, the black haired Hokage's assistant appeared with a six inch thick file, a small blush tinting her cheeks "Okay, October Tenth, Seven years ago at 2:39 AM, Naruto was admitted to the Hospital beaten to a bloody pulp with multiple fatal stab wounds that were inflicted by an instrument that only someone with a high level of anatomical knowledge could use but still be slightly sloppy, an Anbu to be exact, three were the culprits and detained, one Ox, Rat and Owl, and all three were stripped of mask and rank, and executed by the Hokage, personally", Ryuketsu said, as he looked through one of the first few pages of Naruto's file, moving to his book a second later, he extracted a picture and tossed it to Tsunade.
"Five minutes before that time was when this photo was taken, one of Sakari Haruno, a woman with an utter hatred for Naruto, in a rather...Compromising position with Adviser Mitokado...gave me nightmares for a week" Ryuketsu said with a shudder, Naruto raised an eyebrow seeing Tsunade blushing madly. The picture was of the pink haired woman between Mitokado's legs under his desk with his hand on her head. Ryuketsu tossed a second picture.
"One minute later, Sakari still under the desk, and Mitokado issuing orders to the same three Anbu, four minutes later, Naruto was sent to the hospital and was legally dead twice, coincidence? No fucking way". Tsunade tossed the pictures back, accidentally with enough strength that the corner pierced Ryuketsu shoulder; she was glaring at Mitokado the whole time.
"And I'd just like to add, she looks like she is enjoying it...just saying".
"January the next year, a family had actually tried to adopt Naruto, but before Hiruzen could make it official, two chunin barged in and murdered them right then and there", Ryuketsu tossed this picture to the Slug Sannin, it was two bloody bodies in the Hokage's office, two Chunin pinned to the walls.
"...Shizune, remind me to hire carpenters and to tear that office down", Tsunade said. Shizune took the mental note.
"Two minutes prior, Koharu Utatane was speaking with the same two Chunin in private outside of the Hokage's Tower" Ryuketsu said, tossing the second photo, "And that is just the first page of all the dirty, fucked up dealings I've got in this book” Ryuketsu said. Tsunade was letting out a substantial amount of KI. As was Naruto after hearing that kind of news, though he didn't blame the Old Man for not telling him something like that, it was pretty messed up.
"Mind giving me the speedy version?" Ryuketsu grinned and so was Naruto.
"Not at all...Let's see...Uhm...Illegal sex ring in his basement...drug trafficking...money siphoning...child abuse, child abuse, child abuse...bribery, and not a money bribe...multiple rapes...Uhhmmm, I think that's it?", Ryuketsu said, having been pointing out each person as he called the accusations. Naruto was now grinning like a maniac.
"Oh! Murder, Murder...and accomplice to murder", The chiton user chimed in, pointing to Mitokado, Koharu and then Sakari.
Tsunade clapped her hands together.
"That's all I needed to hear, we can discuss a few of those later, Momochi-san, The Civilian Council is a officially disbanded..." Tsunade said.
"WHAT!" Sakari yelled.
"Hokage-sama! Y-y-you can't b-be serious?" said another civilian.
"How can you believe such lies, the Demon lover obviously faked these photographs!"
"SHUT THE FUCK UP NOW!" Tsunade yelled, silencing the uproar and any yells that were going to come, she looked between her slightly shaking advisers.
"I'll deal with the two of you, later, Get out of my sight", she spat, and the two of them didn't need to be told twice. She looked at each and every civilian in the room.
"If hear one more goddamn peep out of anyone of you about my decision, the shit is going to hit the fan! Must I remind you fools that this is a Shinobi Village, Civilians have no fucking say! This is a Dictatorship, not a Democracy, My word is Law! Your word is Shit to me! Now get out before I throw you out!" Tsunade yelled. The grumbling civilians left in a hurry. As soon as the doors shut, the Shinobi Council burst out in laughter, Tsume falling back out of her chair, Hiashi using a cough to cover up his chuckles, some could see the faintest of smiles on Shibi's face under his collar.
"So, Ryuketsu-san, how did you get all that evidence?" Tsunade said, dropping the sophisticated demeanor now that those civilian assholes were gone...for good this time.
"I have my sources, oh and Jiraiya says Hi", he said. Naruto stood from his chair and clapped him on the shoulder.
"I owe you one man".
"Nah, we're even, like I said, I was repaying a debt".
"Hey! What about me!" Sasuke yelled, they had all basically forgotten about him during Tsunade's rant.
"Oh...Yearlong probation...You will be placed in a special chakra bracer that will cut off your chakra the moment you step outside the village, I am doing this because you will be taking a remedial year at the academy, seeing as how you renounced your title as Shinobi of the Leaf, you will officially be a civilian of the Leaf until you can regain such a title, you'll be restarting classes at the Academy, tomorrow, dismissed" Sasuke was livid, he was about to retort when he was silenced by Tsunade's glare. The Uchiha stormed out.
"Go home everyone, we're done here" Tsunade said, the Clan heads all disappeared at once, "Though it is unfortunate, you three will have to be put on probation for a couple months in Konoha seeing as how you were formerly aligned with Orochimaru".
"That's fine" The trio said at the same time. As she walked up to them she said...
"Shizune, please help Tayuya-san with Ryuketsu to get him back to the Hospital so I can properly treat his wounds if there is any damage to the nerves and muscle" Tsunade said as she walked past them, Shizune nodded her head and got Ryuketsu's free arm around her shoulder and helped him walk away, Kimimaro walked after them. Naruto sighed.
"Sorry about the trouble Naruto-kun" Tsunade said.
"It's okay, Baa-chan" for once, Tsunade didn't hit the blond fox Jinchuuriki, only smiled and ruffled his hair.
"Later Gaki" Naruto sighed and went off to one of his favorite places to think over what had occurred.

Training Ground...
Naruto sat against a tree in a meditative position, Tsukiyomi in his lap. Two hundred clones around the Training Grounds split in to groups of fifty working on various exercises. Fifty working on his Taijutsu, Fifty working on his chakra control, Fifty working Kenjutsu with Tsukiyomi, and the last Fifty working on Kenjutsu with his other sword Zangetsu (Slaying Moon).
The chakra control clones currently balancing upside down from branches around the training ground with leaves attached to their foreheads and outstretched arms.
The Taijutsu clones split in to twenty five each, twenty five working a style reminiscent of Taekwondo, and the others training with the Goken stance that Lee and his Sensei, Maito Gai had helped him with before.
Those working with Tsukiyomi went smoothly through their katas, every clone making the same movement at the same time, twenty five going through the basics of Kendo, and the other twenty five working on the various techniques of Battojutsu he had read about.
Those with Zangetsu having no set style as Kendo is made rather difficult with a Zanbato, the size limiting movements. They moved through swift through movements with the rather large sword, quickly moving to use the cloth hanging from the make-shift hilt to spin it at high speeds and send it flying straight like a deadly dart.
Naruto was currently in his mindscape, talking with a friend...

Mindscape...
Naruto stood atop a high plateau with a single cherry blossom tree, a shining crescent moon hanging in the sky, a gentle breeze rolling through, he looked out to see multiple mountain tops peeking through the clouds.
"You wished to speak with me, Naruto-san", He turned around to see a black wolf a few feet away, blue lines through its fur and a crescent moon crest floating above it's back surrounded in blue flames.
"Yeah, when I obtained both you and Zangetsu, and you told me what you were, you said I was destined to wield the two of you, and I've been wondering, what did you mean by that?" The Wolf sighed.
"After the events that occurred days ago, Naruto-san, The reasons behind your wielding us will become clear in time".
Naruto sighed, but then something struck him, "The way you said that...you know what that thing was, don't you?"
"Yes, It is a demon known as an Alto Angelo, a False Angel that was created from the souls of humans long since passed from this life...that is all I am able to tell you as my knowledge of them is limited".
"Wait...'Them'...You're telling me that there are more of those things?" Naruto said rather loudly.
"I cannot give you a straight answer Naruto-san for, again, my knowledge is limited on the subject, they have been around for many decades, even centuries, and that could have been one of the few left". Naruto sighed again; he seemed to be doing that a lot lately.
"All right, another question that's been on my mind, what about other zanpakuto, are there others out there?"
"That is a possibility, Naruto-san, Long ago were wielded by powerful clans, but they were wiped out in a war during, they gained them by training and awakening their inner strength".
"That's good to know, I gotta go".
"You may want to think of changing your wardrobe, Naruto-san, maybe something a little less...bright". Naruto let out a laugh as he faded from his mindscape.

Reality...
Naruto's eyes opened to see his Kage Bunshin still at work; he sealed his Zanpakuto away and stood up.
"All right guys, that's enough for today, disperse yourselves in groups of ten ever ten seconds", the whiskered blond said, the clones nodded and started to disperse themselves as Naruto walked away.
'Why do I get the feeling there is something that Tsukiyomi isn't telling me', Naruto thought. He dismissed it for now so he could walk through Konoha's streets without bumping in to anyone.
Within a few minutes, after a receiving the memories of all of his clones, Naruto came upon his shit hole of an apartment, he looked it over. It looked ready to fall apart any day now, rusted stairs and rotted walkways, most of the doors were either busted down or not there at all after the loots and raids from the assholes who attacked him when he was younger. The water was either scolding hot or ice age cold, there was no in-between, the roof leaked and the floor creaked.
"Yo Naruto!" he looked up to see Ryuketsu leaning on the rusted railing.
"Hey, what are you doing here?"
"Just checking out the place, since money is a little tight for us, we thought we could crash with you until it was over and we could get a place to stay", he yelled down. Naruto made his way up the stairs.
"I guess that's okay, but there's not a lot of furniture and I really don't think this place is very safe to live in, not for four people" Naruto said.
"No shit Sherlock", he saw Tayuya come out of another room, "Hey, Ryu-kun, the charges are set in the second floor".
"The fourth as well" Kimimaro said from the topmost floor.
"And I got the third and first", Ryuketsu said. Naruto was officially confused.
"What are you guys talking about...Charges?" the blond asked.
"Oh yeah, This place is total shit hole man, and like you said, not a lot of furniture, so...", he dropped down a garbage bag to Naruto, "I took the liberty of packing all of your important belongings and Ramen before this puppy goes up in flames". Naruto was gave them a look as if they had all sprouted second heads.
“You guys just got here, can’t this wait until another day?” Naruto asked.
“I’m not living in this rat hole one second” Tayuya said.
“And like you said, it’s not very safe” Kimimaro added. Naruto just sighed, it was three against one.
"...can I blow it up?"
"Ryu -kuuuuun! You promised I could blow it up!" Tayuya whined, latching on to his arm. She loved blowing things up, she found it rather therapeutic.
"Now hime, it's his house, it's only fair" he said, petting her head, Tayuya fake pouted and Naruto chuckled at their antics. The Tsumi no Torio jumped down to ground level and walked away, Naruto finding out that they had taken out all of the important items that could still be used, which was just a couch.
"3...2...1...FIRE!", Naruto snapped his fingers and all of them ducked behind the couch as the apartment building went in flames, the building collapsing in on itself instead to cause the least amount of damage to surrounding buildings, plus no one wanted to get hit with a red hot piece of shrapnel if everything went flying. Fireworks also shot up in to the air and were pretty visible in the diminishing light of the sky.
"Okay, who replaced an explosive charge with a fireworks bomb", Tayuya said, Ryuketsu pointed to Kimimaro and Kimimaro pointed to Ryuketsu, resulting in both of them with lumps on their heads, Tayuya shouldering a mallet that she pulled out of nowhere.
"It does look pretty cool though" Naruto said. And that it did, unfortunately attracting some unwanted attention to the smoldering pile that once was the Uzumaki residence, unwanted attention in the form of a mob of civilians.
"You've finally snapped, eh Demon, trying to raze our village to the ground like before, Is that it!" a leader yelled.
"Shut the fuck up and enjoy the fireworks" None of the four before them said it, for they were too focused on the fireworks going off. They turned to see Tsunade who was with Kakashi and Shizune, the three of them looking in to the sky as well.
"Looks like a celebration" Kakashi said.
"The civilian council is finally gone after all" Shizune added.
"Besides, Naruto Uzumaki has owned that land for years now, any renovations that he sees fit to make can be made" Tsunade said, she snapped her fingers, Four Anbu appeared and followed behind Kakashi as they stood between the four and the mob, "And anyone who tries to bring them harm will be dealt with swiftly and without mercy".
"This is favoritism Hokage-sama! You're protecting that demon just as the Sandaime did", the Mob leader yelled. Tsunade was about to retort when Naruto stepped in.
"It's fine Baa-chan, go ahead and let them by, if they want to try and 'Kill the Demon', then let them try" Naruto said. Tayuya cut in to Ryuketsu’s arm, the blood beginning to move while Ryuketsu held a kunai at her side for her to get at a moment’s notice, Kimimaro ready with a forming stake on his palm, Naruto was ready to summon Zangetsu and cut them down.
"As much as I would love to see you beat the snot out of these pricks Naruto, I can't let that happen, Kakashi, take shifts with the Anbu and make sure none of these civilians try anything funny" Tsunade said, she saw that Ryuketsu and the red head had disappeared, she turned around to see them on either side of Shizune, and they seemed to be whispering in her ear, the Hokage's assistant had a rather deep crimson blush on her face.
'Jackpot!' Tsunade thought with a mischievous gleam in her eye.
"Let's get home, Shizune, all of you return to your homes now or deal with me", the civilians didn't need to hear anymore, scurrying away like the little cockroaches they were. Shizune quickly following after Tsunade, Ryuketsu and Tayuya grinning at each other, he wrapped an arm around her shoulders and lay down on the ground, Tayuya using him for a pillow, Naruto stretched out across the couch and Kimimaro sleeping against the side.

Unknown Location...
"That power...it is one of the Four Keys...that wretched power has risen in this world again...I must have it...I must be Free". An ancient statue of a lion headed man holding a large hour glass over its head that had survived the test of time gave off an eerie red light.
"I sense the blood of the Wretched human lover...and the powers of that damned Sennin...both are close together..." A gruff voice echoed through the clearing, chanting in a strange language. Black mist crawled along the ground, going up a platform and circling in on an pentagram seal with three circles surrounding it, a portal opened showing a red black swirling void.
Three green armored knights wielding lances rose up from the void (1), and a winged Alto Angelo followed. The portal closed and four winged knights stood in wait, the statue was quiet for a moment.
"Lie in wait and strike when the time is right, we must get that Key".
"Yes Sire". The four knights spoke before flying off, the green armored guards spreading their wings and taking flight.
"I must devise a way to free my generals from their prisons...that damned Sennin and Human lover...I will destroy all traces of them from this earth...Those wretched eyes...".

Konoha...
"Hey, How are things going up there?" Naruto yelled up the third floor. Construction was going pretty well on only the first day, Tsunade having funded the whole project. They had drawn up plans for a three story building, first being the living room, kitchen, the relaxing area really, which was big enough that they were also going to turn it in to a music studio of sorts since all had some skill with various instruments. Second was the training room, which Naruto was planning on reinforcing with special seals he had developed in his spare time, the third being the rooms. There was also a basement that would be a library of sorts for jutsu theory and storage for any souvenirs.
Ryuketsu looked over edge with a hard hat on his head, "Good, we're almost done reinforcing the floors, Are the walls set to go up?" Naruto gave him a thumbs up and he returned the gesture.
"Where are Kimimaro and Tayuya anyway?"
"Getting some permits for me, and some more supplies."
"You need both of them to get a couple pieces of paper?" Naruto asked.
"Do you trust Tayuya enough not to burn the place down if they refuse her service?" Ryuketsu retorted.
"Good point...Everything is ready on the second floor".
"Third is set...is the basement secure?" The chiton user asked.
"Yep".
For the next couple of hours the two of them, along with a good hundred clones set up the house, hauling in new furniture and equipment and setting it up.
"Oi shitheads, we're back", Tayuya yelled. Coming in, she and Kimimaro saw that the fridge and sink were set up, the furniture in place, stairs leading up to the second floor, "*Whistles* Not too shabby", the red head said.
Naruto was the first to come down, followed by the Chiton user. Naruto took a seat in a rather comfy looking recliner, Ryuketsu and Tayuya sat on one couch, the red head leaning against him and Kimimaro sat on the other.
"Yeah, and it's only the first day, by tomorrow it should be done, and another couple days to get the water and power turned on" Ryuketsu said.
"Well, since we're going to be living together and I don't know anything about the two of you, how about we go around and say something about ourselves" Naruto suggested, the others were okay with that.
"Don't leave out anything too important now", they turned to see Tsunade leaning against the door frame with Shizune behind her and Tsunade's pet pig Tonton in her arms, "Soon you two are potential Shinobi and Kunoichi of Konoha, I will need to know your background and then you can come with us for physicals."
"I guess I'll start, My name is Naruto Uzumaki, I like Ramen, training, and messing around with seals, My dislikes are rapists, bullies, perverts and especially arrogant people, My hobbies are training, learning new jutsu and practicing with my swords". Tsunade quirked an eyebrow, she didn't know Naruto owned any weapons other than kunai and shuriken.
"My name is Tayuya..." she looked to Ryuketsu, who nodded, "And I'm...Half-Succubus". Tsunade, Shizune and Naruto were definitely shocked.
"Now before you go off on me about some fucking stereotypical shit, only some Succubi are sex crazed maniacs who will bang anything that remotely looks like a dick, and no, I don't suck out souls either" Tayuya said.
"If you're a Half-Succubus, then..." Shizune was interrupted by the red head.
"Yeah, my father was a human, being a half blood means that I only have some of the Succubi abilities, anyway, I like Ryu-kun, instigating fights, and friends, I dislike anyone who would try and hurt my friends, rapists, perverts and especially Succubi stereotypes, and my hobbies are playing music...and other things", she said, a blush tinting her cheeks. Ryuketsu grinned.
"My name is Ryuketsu Momochi, and I'm Half Blood Demon", again, they were shocked, "What is a blood demon? Well, as the name suggests, we control blood and our techniques revolve around blood, whole demons have a more…Demon appearance, while Half-demons look like humans, Are we evil? Some are, some are good, and the majority is neutral". That quieted any questions.
"I like Tayu-hime, sushi, cute girls..." both of them winked to Shizune, Tsunade storing that away under 'Blackmail' in her mind, "My dislikes...rapists, demon stereotypes, and needles, I don’t like needles, my hobbies...playing music, relaxing at hot springs."
"My name is Kimimaro Kaguya, I like my friends and peace and quiet, I dislike anyone who would try to harm my friends and arrogance, my hobbies include meditating and training to become stronger".
Tsunade was intrigued by the trio to say the least, A Succubus, A Blood Demon, and a kid who could turn his bones in to weapons.
"All right, now if you three would come with us, we can get your physicals out of the way" Tsunade said.
"Why? I mean, we're on probation aren't we?" Tayuya said.
"True, but as long as you three behave yourselves during your probation and your physicals check out, you have pretty high chances of becoming Konoha Ninja", Tsunade said with a knowing smirk, the Tsumi no Torio matched it and followed after the two medics.
"If it's not too much trouble, I'd rather Shizune oversee mine", Ryuketsu said, Naruto burst out laughing hearing that, and so did Tsunade, and he could've sworn he felt the heat from Shizune's blush that was most definitely on her face.
He looked at himself and noticed he was in the same old, bright orange jumpsuit, the 'Kill Me' orange that could be seen from a mile away, he liked orange, it was a kickass color when there was enough of it, but all of this...was pushing it...by far.
"Guess I'll have to look around...maybe one shop will let me in". Naruto started towards the shopping district, leaving over thirty Kage Bunshin to defend the home. He went from store to store, each one kicking him out the moment he placed his foot in the door and shooing him away with a broom altogether. He could see that the store owners and the people on the street were glaring at him harder than ever. He could only imagine why.
"I guess news travels fast..." Naruto sighed. He came to the last store in the shopping district. He inhaled deeply and stepped inside.
"Welcome!". Was the first thing he heard, Naruto let go of the breath he was holding, "Ah, a Shinobi, welcome to my shop young man, what can I do for you?", the old man asked. Naruto was in shock for a moment, he could see any indicators of deception in the old man's posture or facial features, he was genuine.
"Um...I'm just browsing for now", Naruto said.
"Ah, well, I will be here if you require my services". Naruto nodded, "And relax my boy, I hold no ill will towards you, I was once skilled Shinobi back in the day, so I know the difference between the Kunai, and the scroll it is sealed in". Naruto did relax, he actually felt like jumping for joy, someone who didn't treat him like a monster, a freak, who didn't judge him over his past, something that was out of his control.
"Thanks Jiji-san", he said. He started to walk around the store, looking at the different shinobi clothes and equipment.
"Not a problem Naruto-san". Naruto had found what he was looking for rather quickly, he stepped in to the dressing room, coming out a couple minutes later in an orange and black jacket, open to reveal the mesh shirt he had underneath and the Shodaime's necklace, orange tape wrapped around his waist and a black belt tilted around his waist for scrolls, black pants cut off at the ankles with orange tape around his ankles and black shinobi sandals. The orange a darker shade than the orange in the jumpsuit.
"The clothes suit you Naruto-san", the old man said, Naruto looked himself over and smiled, he didn't look too bad in the new duds. He returned to the dressing room, and came out in his original 'kill me now' orange jumpsuit.
"Do you think I could get six more sets of these?", Naruto asked.
"Not a problem...will you be needing anything else?".
"I was wondering if you did modifications to the clothes?".
"Why do ask Naruto-san?", the old man inquired.
"I was hoping to get a thin metal lining on the insides of the jackets, strong enough to deflect kunai and shuriken, but light enough that it doesn't hinder my movements", the old store owner cuffed his chin in a thinking pose. a smile spread across his wrinkled face.
"Not a problem, I should be finished by tomorrow at around 8PM...Anything else?", Naruto smiled and got a new set of kunai and shuriken, as well as a small box of flash bombs and twenty explosive tags.
"All right...the total comes to 7500 ryo, (A/N: In this story, 10 ryo = 1 dollar) but for you, I'll cut it in half, 3750", he said with a kind smile, Naruto grinned and paid for his items, taking the kunai, shuriken, flash bombs and explosive tags.
"I'll be by tomorrow for the clothes, thanks again Jiji-san", Naruto said as he exited the shop. The Old man chuckled.
"He'll make a fine Hokage someday, his mother's spirit and his father's determination...and his mother's love for Orange, hehe yes, a fine Hokage, and a powerful one at that".

"You really don't remember your past, Ryuketsu-san?", Tsunade inquired, the three before her had just finished telling her of their pasts, Ryuketsu telling her that he knew nothing of his own, except that his father was demon and his mother was human, taking his Momochi name from her, and of the family that he knew, real or not
"Anything below the last seven or eight years are a complete blank" said the Blood Demon. Tsunade nodded and then began looking over the three files on her desk.
"Do you three mind telling me some of your abilities and traits that you have?" Tsunade asked, "I know of the abilities the Kaguya clan held".
"I have healing saliva and enhanced strength and speed in my hybrid form" Tayuya said.
"And Ryuketsu?"
"My own Blood Manipulation, a high healing and regeneration rate, Immunity to almost all disease and all poisons, and enhanced endurance and strength in my Hybrid Form." Tsunade nodded, she would wait to question them about these Hybrid forms they were talking about.
"All right, you three seem to be in peak physical conditioning, judging from your abilities overall...a frontline/assassination team with demolition capabilities", Tsunade said "I don't think I will have to choose who the leader will be when this team is free to mobilize".
"Thanks Tsunade-san, but, what's the catch here...I can tell you don't trust us...why even give us the option of becoming Shinobi?” Ryuketsu asked.
"...You saved someone I see as a son...and potentially saved a whole team of genin, you've even garnered the respect of the Godaime Kazekage, Sabaku no Gaara for saving his best friend...What you say is true, I don't fully trust you...but I think I can come to, you freely told me of your abilities without asking for any information in return, which is a sign that you may be trustworthy...I will be sending an escort for the three of you for the Torture & Interrogation Department, you will not be harmed as long as you cooperate...though, if you get Anko Mitarashi, you still may get hurt", Tsunade said with a small chuckle.
Ryuketsu respectfully bowed his head, so did Tayuya and Kimimaro, "My thanks, Tsunade-san, you'll have out full cooperation I assure you, but...", he blinked and showed bloodshot eyes, his pupils had shrunk, "If any harm comes to my friends, what Kyuubi did to your village will look like a temper tantrum compared to me, I assure you of this".
"Is that a threat, Momochi-san?" Tsunade asked, quirking an eyebrow, Shizune tightened her grip on Tonton and stepped back, the Chiton user placed both hands on the Godaime's desk and nearly got face to face with her.
"It's no threat, it’s a promise". Ryuketsu blinked and his eyes were back to normal. He, Tayuya and Kimimaro took their leave.
"Tsunade-sama, can we really trust them?" Shizune asked.
"...I don't know...There were willing to tell us their abilities, though I sense we weren't told everything...Maybe, Maybe not...we'll just have to wait and see" the busty Godaime Hokage said.

Outside...
"I hope they have some good sushi restaurants around here", Sanosuke said as they exited the Hokage Tower, the streets were empty in all three directions leading away from the doors.
"What happened to all of the people?" Tayuya asked. The exits were suddenly covered a swirling red web of red energy, the three of them got in to their fighting stances, Ryuketsu using the rings on his middle fingers to cut in to the side of his forearms, red scythe blades extending from the cut, Kimimaro formed the white stake from his palms and Tayuya unsealed her Kusarigama.
From the three webs of light, green armored knights emerged, measuring at least seven to eight feet in height from the looks of them, lances in their right hands and what looked to be wings guarding their left arms.(1)
"What the fuck?" Tayuya said. Ryuketsu twitched, images flashed through his mind...

"Run to cover!"
"Here they come!"
...Blood...screams...the smell of death...the heat of flames razing the city to the ground...A massive beast of molten rock...a black armored being...a winged warrior...blood...so much blood.
Green armored knights stomping through the streets...bloody bodies being trampled by the creatures...A spectral figure loomed in the sky above...a blood red crescent moon in the sky behind it...
"Mundus!"
A winged Shadow launched towards the spectral figure.

Ryuketsu gasped and fell to his knees as the visions ceased, he clutched his head in pain, blood ran down his cheeks like tears. His scythe blades fell in to red puddles on the ground.
"Ryu-kun!" Tayuya gasped, she was by his side, and she helped him to his feet.
"Are you all right?" Kimimaro asked. Ryuketsu dropped his hands and held one out, the blood rising and forming a second skin around his fist; the blood running down his cheeks formed a mask over the lower half of his face.
"Chiton: Chi no Kobushi" (Blood Release: Blood Fist)
"Yeah...What do you two say to kicking some ass like old times?" Ryuketsu asked. Tayuya grinned and began spinning the kusarigama at high speeds, the razor sharp blade whistling as it moved through the air, Kimimaro took his fighting stance with the stakes in his palms.
“Destroy!” the middle said loudly as it charged ahead, thrusting the lance forward, Ryuketsu catching it.
“This should be fun” Ryuketsu said, no one could see the grin on his face. He tossed the knight in to the air and Kimimaro jumped up, sending it back down to the earth with a powerful kick to its head. The other two knights avoiding their fallen comrade and attacking the trio.
Tayuya struck one with her Kusarigama, making a sizable gash in its chest plate, she hooked the scythe blade in the gash and with a strong tug pulled the knight in to the air and crashing behind them, losing its lance and shield, Ryuketsu tackled the third who tried to attack Tayuya when her guard was down.
Ryuketsu lifted the knight over his head and threw him in to one of his comrades, only to be tackled by the third of the group, Kimimaro jumping on to its back and thrusting the stakes through the steel armor, the Kaguya jumping away as Ryuketsu sent it flying with a powerful punch. The knight dissolved in to as, its armor fell apart and quickly rusted, being swept away with the breeze.
“Fureaton: Hamā!” (Fury Release: The Hammer) the Chiton user and the Kaguya turned around to see one of the knights rushing towards them, Tayuya coming down from above with a double fisted haymaker, red energy glowing around her fists.
She jumped away and landed in between her two teammates, one knight left to fight them.
“Three moves?” Ryuketsu suggested.
“Three moves” Kimimaro and Tayuya said. Tayuya was the first to move, slicing off the Knights lance wielding arm in the blink of an eye with her Kusarigama.
“One.”
Kimimaro was the second; moving at great speeds and hopping in to the air, striking the knight in the chest with a reverse hook kick and knocking the shield out of his hand.
“Two.”
Ryuketsu ran forward, the blood around his fists turning in to scythe blades and lengthening further.
“Chiton: Shi-ten!” The blades turned around so the cutting edge was facing out, in the blink of an eye, Ryuketsu was behind the knight with his arms crossed in the after slash position, the knight began to split in half from the head down, its body dissolving and armor rusting and being blown away before it hit the ground.
“Three, Dead Center.”

Naruto walked down the stairs from the second floor having finished putting up reinforcement seals, anti-burn seals, sound proofing seals and the lot, Jiraiya having discretely left him a book on sealing and believe it or not, those were the basics.
"The bathrooms are fine, the floors are reinforced, all it needs is a nice paint job and this place is done", Naruto said to himself as he looked around. He sat down in his recliner only for a scream to reach his ears. He was up and out of the door like a shot stopping in the middle of the street, and no one was there.
"What the hell, I could've sworn that there were people out here", Naruto said, large red energy webs blocked off both exits, leaving him in a box, Naruto tensed, he closed his eyes to listen to his surroundings. He quickly dive rolled to the side, unsealing Zangetsu as rumbling roar filled the air, raising the butcher knife blade to block a slash from above, the force behind it folding the earth underneath him and creating a sizable crater, Naruto pushed away.
The Alto Angelo wasted no time in attacking and using its superior size to its advantage, it stabbed twice, Naruto blocking each hit and being pushed back quite a bit, it stabbed again and Naruto side stepped it, the sword hitting the energy web and the winged knight getting quite the shock. Naruto stabbed upwards with Zangetsu pushed the Alto Angelo back and making a small crack in the chest armor.
Naruto ran up the length of the blade and cocked his fist back.
"Fuuton: Senpuuken!"(Wind Release: Hurricane Fist), Naruto threw a wind enhanced punch, it connected with the chest armor and a powerful hurricane followed sending the Angelo flying back and in to the air, its wings spread. Naruto used the length of cloth from Zangetsu's hilt to use it as a deadly dart, the butcher knife blade flying straight towards the Angel knight. It swung to deflect the blade only for it to go up in smoke and turn in to a Naruto clone that flipped over its blade.
"Katon: Gokakyu no Jutsu!" He exhaled a powerful fireball that exploded on contact with the armored angel, sending it flying in to a building and then to the ground with a heavy crash, a part of the building falling on top of it.
The Alto Angelo threw the rubble from its body with a powerful flap of its wings, Naruto not giving it an opportunity to attack.
"Fuuton: Daitoppa!" The whiskered blond Jinchuuriki released a powerful gust of air that sent the armored angel sliding back a few feet, a Kage Bunshin capitalized on the wind stream and threw a kunai in to it, the steel blade went through the hole in its chest armor and in to its chest, the creature letting out a mighty roar of pain, Naruto took the opportunity to end it.
He ran full tilt towards the Angelo and jumped up, "Hado #4: Byakurai!” the lightning bolt of energy piercing through its helmet. As the beast fell, it dissolved in to ash and drifted away with the breeze. Naruto panted lightly and dispersed his clone, the energy webs disappeared. A few seconds later, the Tsumi no Torio showed up.
"Naruto, what the hell happened here?" the Tsumi no Torio asked, seeing the damage to an old abandoned building.
"...Long story."
"We've got time" they said at the same time. Naruto nodded and they went inside their partially finished apartment.

A man in his fifties stood atop the adjacent roof, multiple black clad ninja around him, all of them wearing black porcelain mask.
"If they have a routine, learn it, learn their morning rituals, find and memorize every single moment that they repeat and are vulnerable, when I give the signal, I want them dead, if any one of them are alive then you all shall suffer the consequences" he said in a gruff voice.
"Hai" the group of shinobi disappeared in Shunshin.
"One hell spawn infesting my village was pushing the limit, but four...they must burn."

All right, Chappy Numero Dos, is finished.
Read. Review. Constructive Criticism appreciated.
