___________________________________
The people of the Leaf village thought they had Uzumaki Naruto figured out. The people of Konoha thought they had the Kyuubi Jinchuriki under their thumb from the early years of abuse they put him through. They thought the beatings, the shunning, and the anguish they had been hitting him with for years would make him their personal weapon to use whenever they desired.
They thought wrong!
Oh, Uzumaki Naruto fought for them, which wasn't wrong, nor was it wrong for them to assume that they were in control of the young Jinchuriki's life from the beginning, and had the boy right where they wanted him. However, they didn't expect the boy to do the one thing they had spent so hard trying to stop him from doing, and if not stop...control.
The didn't expect Uzumaki Naruto to try taking back his life.
If there was one thing the people of Konoha were wrong about, was the fact an Uzumaki never forgets those that wrong them, and make it their mission to return the pain several times over. While Naruto endured the pain, his mind began formulating a plan to get his revenge while keep his goal of being Hokage within his grasp, and evolved with each new situation arising.
To fool the people of Konoha, Naruto had in fact played the fool himself, and made just about everyone that thought they knew him believe that was he was just that.
He wasn't.
To get back at the Sandaime Hokage for allowing the abuse to happen from the start, the secretly vengeful Uzumaki Naruto schemed against the old man, and provided Intel for Orochimaru to strike at key places during his planned invasion. Of course, Naruto didn't want his village to fall, which was why he fooled Orochimaru into believing the info was accurate down to the letter when it was only half that.
Orochimaru would have to share his revenge in killing the Sandaime, even if the Sannin himself didn't even realize it, and probably wouldn't long after his own demise with his soul rotting in Hell. As for the village, the failed invasion shifted things so Konoha would have to rely on Naruto, and his ability to control Kyuubi's power along with training him further in the Shinobi Arts.
And enter Jiraiya of the Sannin.
Naruto knew who he was. Iruka's history lessons were informative no mater howboring the man's voice made you want to sleep like a Nara. Naruto also knew the man was his Godfather, but left to do his own thing, and trusted the village to be kind to the boy.
He thought wrong!
Still, Naruto played the fool in letting Jiraiya do his thing when they met, but that had all changed when it came to leaving for three years, and then returning from the training trip a new man. Stronger then before and with a new arsenal of skills the village would have never let him have had things stayed the same with the late Sandaime in charge. In fact, Naruto played Jiraiya like a fiddle, using the Sandaime Hokage's death at the hands of Orochimaru to get the Toad Sannin to train him, and actually keep the notion of peeping on women in the hot springs to a minimum.
In the event the Sannin did stray from his duties in training, the man's Godson would have interesting conversations with the Kyuubi, and training in the demon's ways of manipulating its chakra. That was another thing the people of Konoha were wrong about, as Naruto was good friends with Kyuubi for awhile now, and the two had been waiting for the chance to take their training further without the all seeing eyes of the village just waiting to have an excuse to hurt him.
Not that they would get the chance with everything around him happening that required Naruto use his powers to make the Leaf appear to be unbeatable. Orochimaru. Sasuke after his betrayal, which Naruto let happen by holding back, and gambled with his life a tad to see the need for Jiraiya to train his Godson grow. The Akatsuki was a major thing, which the Councils had tried to use against Naruto, but the Tsunade had gone against their decision after an anonymous scroll appeared in her office detailing their plans for the boy should he stay, and the Kyuubi Jinchuriki knew Godaime Hokage would do just about the opposite of what they wanted.
He was her Godson after all and she thought it was best to have him mobile from the village with the mission to hunt down Orochimaru being a means to do that.
She thought wrong!
It did what Tsunade intended in keeping Naruto away from Konoha, which in part kept it protected from the Akatsuki, but it was wrong on her part to keep him away due to the fact Naruto didn't care about finding Orochimaru, and decided to focus more on Sasuke. Still, the time was not yet right to unleash his true potential on Sasuke, Orochimaru, the Akatsuki, or Konoha itself when the two "rivals" met after three long years. Sasuke of course being the arrogant jerk he was, claimed to spare Naruto on a whim, and that it wouldn't happen a second time. Naruto countered that little proclamation by saying that it was a funny choice of words. When the Sharingan user demanded Naruto explain, the blonde stated the only reason Sasuke even won their fight three years ago at the Valley of the End was because the Uzumaki had spared the Uchiha from death via Rasengan on the very same whim.
Naruto had shown mercy first. Basically shattering a good chunk of the Uchiha's ego into thinking he was stronger then the Uzumaki boy since they last fought.
By that point, Sasuke had decided to prove he was better, and attempt to kill Naruto with his sword. Naruto however, repelled the Uchiha after blocking the strike, and breaking the boy's arms before kicking him away into a wall.
Still think you're stronger Uchiha? Use your eyes this time. I want to break what's left of your ego when trying your hardest!
Sasuke did try and with the Sharingan this time. Thinking the blonde would fail against his bloodline. He thought wrong! When Sasuke used his Sharingan to enter Naruto mind, the Uchiha came face to face with the Kyuubi, saying this was the true source of Naruto's power, which made the Kyuubi laugh, calling the boy a fool into believing that, and were just like the other Leaf Shinobi of Konoha. Before Sasuke could ponder those words, he found a hand on his shoulder, and upon turning his head saw Naruto's fist knock him out of the blonde Uzumaki's head.
Sasuke was almost captured had Orochimaru and Kabuto not intervened at the very last minute.
