AN: Starting next week we will end up going back to the normal every day schedule. Since it is the first week of the month I will be kind of busy and I need to rest a bit before I start doing the usual thing with my posting schedule.

I am working on a lot of things, including a 4 part 4-some story and I just finished a NCIS fic that is just waiting for me to edit it, so I'm ready for my usual wednesday postings and I'm working on finishing off a few shorter stories for my Monday/Friday posting.

Hurrah for me.

Enjoy.

*~*~*~*

“Tell me, do we have any idea as to what we’re going to do?” Tsunade asked as she looked up from her cup, scowling slightly as Gaara took a seat on the floor of her living room. Temari sat on the couch behind him while Kankuro sat down next to a blushing Naruto with Iruka sitting on his other side. Jiraiya was sitting in one of the single seats, looking bored once more as Izumo and Kotetsu sat in Genma’s and Raidou’s laps on the loveseat.

“I was planning on heading out with our little medic spy when he goes out to meet Oro-chan this next time,” Jiraiya said, shrugging one shoulder before he pursed his lips. “No idea what I’m going to do while I’m there since it won’t take us long to go over anything. I do need to spend at least a week to make it look like I’m actually doing research and checking in on my contacts,” he continued.

“That means that you will be leaving after Kabuto does and meet with Orochimaru to find out what is going on?” Izumo asked as he leant into Genma’s chest, stealing his senbon with a look.

“That’s right. I’ll try and send a summons with a report when I find out more, but I’m not really able to promise anything major or breaking during this,” Jiraiya said, shrugging one shoulder. “It should be just fine, but again, I can’t promise anything,” he said, looking over the group.

“At the very least we can hopefully learn more than what Kabuto-kun has been able to tell us the last couple of weeks when we meet,” Naruto said. Tsunade smiled at him, noticing that he had stopped blushing so brightly, which made her happy about that fact. She needed all of her people focused on what was going on around them.

“So while Jiraiya meets with Orochimaru, what are my dear little chunin going to do during this time?” Tsunade asked, looking over the four chunin and their tokubetsu jounin.

Iruka sat up, hiding his smugness behind a veneer of professionalism before he answered her question. “We’re actually still going through all of the laws that had been ‘passed’ since Hiruzen-sama had taken over as Hokage for the Second time. We have found three of them so far that we have to strip the power by using some of the pre-filled forms unfortunately. They made their way into the Archives. We did write down the information that we gave you when did arrive,” he said, nodding over to the scroll that now sat on a side table.

Tsunade looked over to the scroll before she nodded her head, understanding what was being said. “I’ll go over that tonight and fill out the paperwork that I have a feeling is in there so that it’s a permanent change.”

“Thank you, Tsunade-sama,” Iruka said, nodding his head with a smile on his lips before he continued to fill her in. “I think that while Jiraiya-sama is on his trip that we shall continue to go through everything. And I’m thinking that we’ll be activating the seals to record any new information that has not been turned in yet.”

“Seals? What seals?” Kankuro asked, laying his arm over the couch behind Naruto and getting a blushing look. He smiled at that but was still curious as to what Iruka was talking about.

“There are several hundred seals that are laid out all over the village that was placed down by the first of the career chunins that forcibly records all of the information that has been written down or brought into the village,” Kotetsu told him after getting nods from Iruka and Tsunade.

“Those seals are works of genius actually. Pure, unadulterated genius,” Jiraiya sighed in delight at the thought of them, remembering when he had been able to research them as part of his Seal Mastery. “Truly a delight of the Uzumaki fuinjutsu. They are built to target certain things only, which means that any book that has been used to carry information in or out of the village is copied. Along with that, the seals don’t really care how well you protect it, they will get the information. Which means that we can finally get all that lovely information that Danzo tries so hard to hide.”

“You do not often activate them? Why not?” Gaara asked, looking to Naruto with a curious look as the blond shook his head with a frown.

“The last time that they were activated for any reason was before Hiruzen-sama took the position of Hokage the first time. Since then, it hasn’t really occurred to the desk chunin to use them since he really didn’t like them being used,” Raidou said, stroking over Kotetsu’s hips as he thought. “I’m thinking that it has been long overdue, especially since we’re having to clean up all of this bullshit now. It’s been sitting for longer than we’ve been doing this I’m thinking.”

“For all that he was a good Hokage, Hiruzen-san didn’t like some of the dirtier aspects of a career chunin and we did have to work with him so it was easier to just do it that way,” Iruka said, shrugging.

“When are you guys going to activate them? I take it that it will be soon,” Temari said. She had been surprised when the group had invited her and her brothers to the meeting but she was starting to feel good about it since it was as if they were trying to bring the three of them into their circle.

“We’ll do it tonight after Jiraiya has left with Kabuto-kun to meet with Orochimaru-san,” Naruto replied, ignoring the mutter from Jiraiya about Orochimaru getting more respect from him then his own master did. “We’ve been working on gathering all of the paper and ink since it’s all specialized and it’s going to take a lot of it. The ink is made despite the specialty of it, but the paper was finally delivered a couple of days ago.”

“All of my chunin are very good at making sure that things get done when they need to. There’s a good reason why I don’t really mind letting them do what they feel they need to do,” Tsunade told the Sand Siblings, smirking slightly. “I do know that Hiruzen-sensei tried to get the Kage before your father to create a team but they didn’t bother to listen to his suggestions and your father was a paranoid bastard.”

“I think that I shall start looking into creating such a team when I am back in Suna once again,” Gaara replied, nodding his head as he started to think about what he had to do to create a team like that.

“If you want me to, I can show you the rules and regulations that all of the Archival Chunin are ruled by here,” Iruka offered him. “We can also show you what we look for in new possible career chunin, and what kind of psychological review you would need to do for them.”

“That would help me in creating our own teams, thank you,” Gaara said, nodding his head in return with a smile. “Jiraiya-san, do you think that the seals you have here could be applied in Suna? Perhaps with modifications in mind for our chakra styles and environment?” he asked, turning to Jiraiya and Tsunade.

“I don’t see why not. But the seals themselves can’t get out past you and your family, or Seal Masters after he places them. The usage of them is easy enough with a specialized seal to activate them,” Tsunade finally said after a moment of thinking. “I’ll have Kotetsu draw up a basic village seal agreement before you and Temari leave here,” she promised. Kotetsu sighed as he pulled out a pad of paper and a pen from one pocket, starting to write down what he would need to brush up on before he wrote the agreement. Raidou chuckled and watched as he wrote in his personal code with well practiced ease, deciphering it over his shoulder.

“Cool. This means that we can watch the idiots on the council with a closer eye,” Kankuro snorted, shaking his head. “Though we might have to apply our training to lie six ways to Sunday about them. Tell them that they’re a security measure, an alarm system if you will.”

“It’s not that hard of a sale. Jiraiya here is well known to lay seals down that others would find near impossible to decipher without a lot of training beforehand for good reasons,” Naruto said, thinking as he frown. “It won’t be unusual for him to travel to Suna on a goodwill mission since we’re also trading nin.”

“That sounds like a good excuse to me. Is there anything else that we need to discuss tonight?” Tsunade asked, looking over the rest of the group in her living room.

“Oh yeah, how about the compensation for allowing those who shouldn’t be at my house to stay? Especially since I don’t really have the rooms to let them staying. And the matching paperwork,” Naruto said, sitting up after a moment.

“Oh, right, right. I have that,” Tsunade said. Standing up, she headed into her personal office just off of the living room, picking up the scroll from Iruka and taking it with her. She came back a few minutes later after hunting down the right scroll and handed over a decidedly slim sealing scroll to Naruto. “The payment and papers that are blood sealed to your blood and chakra signature as promised.”

“Well now, if that’s all, I really need to head on out and meet with Kabuto-kun,” Jiraiya drawled as he stood up, picking up his travel bags and giant travel scroll.

It didn’t take long for the group to gather everything up and leave, their guards following after their charges. Jiraiya slipped out of the village not five minutes after leaving Tsunade’s home, meeting up with Kabuto ten minutes outside of the walls and heading to the village that was just a day’s run away.

The desk chunins and their two tokubetsu jounin helpers on the other hand locked themselves into one of the many basement rooms of the Hokage tower, this one covered in delicate elegant seals and arrays. The guards took up their posts outside of the room and waited for their charges to get done.

The group didn’t leave the room until the early hours of the morning, the sun not yet peeking over the horizon. Iruka locked the door behind them, sealing in the boxes of scrolls, books and loose papers in the room. They told the curious guards that they would get them after they got some sleep while those on shift would live off of specialized energy pills and bars.

Raidou grumped as he collected Neji, who had luckily gotten a nap in, and headed to finish off his night at the monitors and taking late night mission reports.
