----------------------------------------------------------Legacy of the Hokage-----------------------------------------
“Ah Naruto.” Kakashi said as Naruto appeared right in front of him.
“Kakashi, I’m surprised that they chose you to meet me tonight. I know how bad you are at keeping track of time. Its good to see your reading the newest “Come Come” series.” Naruto said casually pointing at the book Kakashi was holding.
Kakashi blushing slightly slid the book Naruto had presented him with the other day, into his pouch, and then turning to address Naruto said. “Alright Today after you left Ibiki was able to extract from our captured guests the reason for them being here. They were sent to do three things. One was to assassinate our hokage, the second to gather information on the lay of the village and the land around it, and the third was to take the scrolls that contain Orochimaur’s secret jutsus. They haven’t given up on the fact that they wish to acquire them. They are all currently being held as class S criminals, and are secured in a chakra resistant room in out prison. They won’t be escaping any time soon.” Kakashi informed Naruto.
“Good. Has there been any other developments after I left this afternoon?” Naruto asked.
“Yes unfortunately. Tsunade and Jiraiya were found murdered in the hokage office. We didn’t know that the enemy was around, and I take it that the one that got away from us came back and took care of the assassinations. It was most troubling. There was a message that was written in Tsunade blood placed over the door to her office. It said 'I accept.' ” Kakashi said in a low voice.
“WHAT!?! Those bastards. They killed the two of them. How did they die???” Naruto asked furiously.
“Well Ibiki told me not to concern you with the details, but because you asked and I know you won’t take any excuse, two kunai to the back. It was a stealth assassination. They killed them while they were together as lovers.” Kakashi said quietly. He knew that the news upset Naruto greatly.
Tears of bitter unjust feel down from Naruto’s eyes as the news sank in. ‘They’re never coming back. They died while together which means that it was quick and possibly painless, but still they were both great people, and….I can’t believe I’ll never be able to see them smile again.’ Naruto sobbed. Then letting his fury take hold Naruto shouted. “I will kill everyone of those bastards the second they step into this village!!“
Then wiping away the tears from his eyes, Naruto once again addressed Kakashi. “The enemy had two reasons for doing this. One is to get rid of the reigning hokage, and the other was to draw me out into the open. We have to host a funeral for them tomorrow, and I can guarantee you that at least twelve more will appear and try to assassinate me. I will send a clone to the funeral. But the clone won’t dodge the assassination attempt, Instead’ it will take a fatal wound and die, However I will forcefully keep the jutsu active so that it doesn’t disappear until I release it. I want the enemy to think that they have removed any possible leadership form the town, and to also remain unaware that I am alive until they attack. They will be expecting an easy victory over our now leaderless village. But I will not be dead. And the second they come into the village I will have you and the other Anbu kill every last one of them. Or I could just kill them all myself…they deserve it after what they did to Tsunade and Jiraiya.”
“I know how you feel Naruto, but wouldn’t it be better to try to catch the next team they send to assassinate you? I think that your anger and sadness at the loss of Jiraiya, and Tsunade has clouded your judgement. I think your plan is too risky.” Kakashi said as he thought about Naruto’s suggestion.
“Kakashi I won’t be anywhere near the Funeral. Instead I will pay my respects to them in my own way. I will train until the attack comes, The second the enemy attacks the village I want you to throw my special kunai into the air. I will come immediately. Until then trust my judgement and go through with my plan. Don’t let anyone else know about it. Not even Sakura or Sauske. If word somehow leaked out that I wasn’t really there, then they would try to capture or kill most of you guys. They know that Sakura and Sauske are my closest friends and would target them if they discovered that the clone was a decoy.” Naruto said as he looked at his former sensi.
“Alright, I still thinks its risky, but the way you explain it makes sense. Naruto…no Lord Hokage, I will do as you wish. But are you really prepared to let Sakura, and Sauske think you have been killed? They may act rashly and try to hunt them down.” Kakashi replied.
“Don’t let theme move. If they try to chase after them, tell them to stay by my side, and that you and Ibiki will chase after them. Then summon your dogs and give chase. When your out of range of everyone but Ibiki release the jutsu after you have used your sharingan to put him to sleep. Don’t let him know your doing it though. He could charge you with treason towards the country for helping the Shadow ninjas escape.” Naruto explained carefully. They could not afford to mess this up.
“Alright. If your ready to make a sacrifice as big as this, then I will trust you and follow your orders without fail.” Kakashi said looking at the grim determination set in Naruto’s eyes.
“Good. If you will excuse me. I have already fought earlier tonight, and still have many hours of training ahead of me. Good night Kakashi. I’ll send the clone to he funeral right before it starts so that he may speak for Tsunade and Jiraiya. If they attack and try to kill any others but myself you are to protect them with your life, as I am willing to do with mine.” Naruto said as he turned to leave.
“Yes.” Kakashi said.
And with his business concluded Naruto flickered back to the Konoha mountains to resume his training.
‘I’ll make those bastards pay!’ Naruto thought as he sat down and retrieved the final two scrolls of the hokage from his chest.
Unrolling the first he began to read, a cold determination sketched into every line and muscle of his body.
‘’’Fire Style Ultimate Techniques
Fire Dragon Missiles: A mixed elemental technique which follows up the Earth Elemental, Dragon missile. The user then spits out a flame of fire to engulf the earth missiles to turn them into fire missiles and bombard the opponent. Hand sings: Bird, Dog, Boar, Tiger, Monkey, Tiger, Horse.
Fire Dragon Flame Blast: A jutsu that sends a stream of fire towards the opponent, in the shape of a large dragon, from the users mouth. Hand signs: Dog, Rat, Bird, Dog, Snake, Tiger, Horse, Dragon.
Flaming Dragon Inferno: A jutsu that causes the ground to burn and melt until it becomes magma. Once this occurs, a dragons head made of magma will emerge. This dragon will lunge and attack the enemy. Only a very powerful water jutsu can counter out its affect. Hand signs: Dog, Bird, Boar, Rat, Tiger, Horse, Tiger, Dragon.
Phoenix Reincarnate: A jutsu where the users body is burned to a crisp. And from the ashes he rises anew with an average temperature of that of the sun. The ground he walks on immediately melts and begins to burn with the heat of that of lava. Anything the user touches while in the Phoenix form burns instantly to nothing more than ash. However The jutsu deals a great deal of wear and tear on the body. The user can very easily burn himself alive wit the slightest touch. There for forming hand signs is impossible. Hand signs: Dragon, Boar, Rat, Bird, Rat, Tiger, Dragon, Snake, Dragon, Tiger, Ox, Dragon.
‘Alright I knew all of those except the last one. It seems like it will be interesting to use, but I wonder how much it hurts to be burned to ash in the first place?’ Naruto thought as he re-read the part about burning alive.
Sighing Naruto re-rolled the scroll and placed it with the others. Then he reached over and unrolled the final elemental scroll of the hokage.
‘’’Wind Style Ultimate Techniques
Typhoon Twisting Gale: A jutsu that allows the user to summon two massive forces of wind nature. A typhoon is a tornado or twister that has formed over water. It will down and batter the opponent if they get sucked into its vicious current. It will also call forth a twister which is an overly huge tornado with winds strong enough to demolish entire villages and cities in seconds. Hand signs: Rat, Ox, Boar, Tiger, Rat, Dog, Rat, Dog.
Slicing wind: A advanced from of the wind blade this jutsu takes the wind and forms it into a massive sword. The invisible blade is as sharp as nay real sword and can not be detected. Do not use this jutsu lightly. The wind is unpredictable and may blow towards the user as well as the opponent. Hand signs: Rat, Bird, Dragon, Bird, Ram, Boar, Dog.
Sealing Gale: A jutsu that takes the wind and spins it around the opponent at a high velocity. As the wind spins the air inside the center where the opponent is trapped, gets sucked out and twisted into the tornado. This jutsu will suffocate the person trapped within in a matter of minutes, And because there is no way to escape the center of the tornado, the opponent is virtually helpless. Hand signs: Dog, Rat, Bird, Ox, Ram, Boar, Dragon, Snake, Tiger.
Ultimate Technique: ????: This jutsu has no name. The user simply forms the hand signs: Rat, Dragon, Ram, Boar, Snake, Tiger, Dog, Rat, Dog, Horse, Dragon, Dog. A mysterious invisible force will strike the opponent. This force when watched by an Uchiha was described as nothing. A floating Ninja armour speeds into the opponent, and burst back out. The damage is in calculable. There opponent’s organs are ripped to shreds as though they had been slash millions of times. The users of this Jutsu have doubled it the Unseen Force.”
‘I know what that unseen force is,’ though Naruto as he read the description of the jutsu over an over. ‘That’s Silence. So he is interacting with the world even though he said he never did.’
Re-rolling the scroll Naruto began forming the hand signs for the unseen force jutsu. When he finished. A flash of bright light burst forth from the ground and an with an amazing speed decimated the rock at which Naruto had aimed the jutsu. Calling before the unseen force had a chance to disperse Naruto shouted “SILENCE.”
The same invisible armour stepped forth from the rock shocked to see Naruto standing there.
“Naruto? What are you doing here???” He asked casually.
“That’s what I want to know. What was with that nonsense you spouted to me about not wanting to interfere with the world. You’re a bloody jutsu for christ sakes. The Hokage have had the ability to summon you to their aid. They dubbed you the unseen force. You have a jutsu listed in the hokage scrolls.” Naruto said laughing and pointing to the jutsu written on the scroll.
“WHAT???? But …but I never let them see me, so how did you know it was me?”
“An Uchiha witnessed the unseen force. He said that their was an invisible armour that darted into and out of the opponent. That gave it away.”
Laughing now Naruto asked curiously.
“So why do you do it??” “I thought you had a strictly hands off policy when it came to helping the world. The only case where you’d break it was with an Uzumaki. But now I learn that you like the others wander about freely and choose when to intervene. Hell I can even summon you without the sword.”
“Naruto…you have to understand that I did not have a choice. It was your father who created the jutsu. He said it was easier then swinging the sword.” Silence replied.
“Well that’s an understatement.” “But while your out I was wonder …When you return to the sword, would you let Shimmer know I will be calling her out. I wish to learn the light jutsus she knows. I managed to master Sin’s jutsus in three hours.” Naruto said as he watched Silence fidget his armoured glove twitching as though it was itching.
“Ah yes we heard about that from Sin. You were even able to answer the Shigami’s riddle.” Silence said as he started to disperse.
“Yeah So will you let her know??” Naruto asked the disappearing form of Silence.
“Of course, and If you no longer have a reason to have me out here then I will return to the sword now.” Silence said as he all but faded away.
“Alright.” Naruto replied.
And with that Silence vanished like a whiff of smoke, returned to wind.
“Alright.” Naruto said as he withdrew his sword from its sheath. Then swinging it in a downward arch he shouted. “Shimmer!”
And in a blast of dazzling white light Shimmer appeared.

Naruto arrived to the meeting area to find Kakashi waiting for him.“Ah Naruto.” Kakashi said as Naruto appeared right in front of him.
“Kakashi, I’m surprised that they chose you to meet me tonight. I know how bad you are at keeping track of time. Its good to see your reading the newest “Come Come” series.” Naruto said casually pointing at the book Kakashi was holding.

And with his business concluded Naruto flickered back to the Konoha mountains to resume his training.
-----------------------------------Konoha Mountains------------------------------
Naruto reappeared into the cold night air. The brisk cool night had seemed to grow even colder with the news of Tsunade and Jiraiya’s passing.‘I’ll make those bastards pay!’ Naruto thought as he sat down and retrieved the final two scrolls of the hokage from his chest.
