Chapter 9 - A Hokage's Day

Sarutobi Hiruzen was still thinking at what happened yesterday, at how that boy,Haruno Ren was hiding such a strong power for such a long time.

'Not only is Ren a sensor ninja with sense so sharp that was able to find one of Orochimaru spies , but was smart enough to use this information at his advantage, and let's not talk about that sword terrifying power it seem like Konoha is again blessed with a new generation of capable ninja.'

Smoking from his pipe Hiruzen then turn to his nemesis, the paperwork, 'who invented the paperwork should receive Enma staff up....' but the Hokage thought was interrupted by an Anbu that rushed inside.

"Hokage-sama we checked the information that you received, and it's true, just now I saw Mizuki approching the demon fox kid that just failed the ninjutsu exam right now Rat and Pig are following Mizuki while Horse is shadowing the kid, what are your order?"

Hiruzen was silent lost in his thoughts for a while then said"Keep following Mizuki but do not intervene unless Naruto is about to die, I'll let Naruto steal the scroll let's see if Mizuki has other helper in the village" saying this the Hokage stood up and went in the direction of the Hokage Mansion where the scroll is Hidden.

Reaching is position the first thing he did is take out the scroll of forbidden seal from his hidden spot and putting on hi own clothes then replace it with a similar one where all the more dangerous jutsu are removed.

Now all he has to do is waiting 'How will that little prankster steal the scroll? Will he tries to be stealthy, unseen? or will he use a distraction like using a prank? smokescreen? .....' while thinking of this Hiruzen heard the sound of a window opening.

Then he saw the blond kid going in the direction of the room of scrolls , curious to see his reaction Hiruzen yell "What are you doing in my house,at this hour?" and at this moment Naruto used his first original jutsu one he kept improving and working on it until the day he used successfully on a goddess. "Oiroke no Jutsu(Sexy no Justu)"

(AN:i'm not sure if using the full jap names or going with the translation let me know)

To say that the Hokage was stunned about this jutsu was the least he even felt his chakra go out of control for a second and a nosebleed was about come out, in the end he decided to let it go and play it as he got knocked out and let the brat go on.

After some time that Naruto got out of the mansion Hiruzen said to a near Anbu to let out the news of the stolen scroll and to call all the free chunin to the mansion to start searching for Naruto, Mizuki included.

After almost half a day later all the free chunin are standing in front of the Hokage mansion clamoring and Sarutobi Hiruzen interrupt them "Silence, yes there are dangerous jutsu banned by the previous Hokage in that scroll, if used in certain way can cause incredible trouble....it's has been half a day since the scroll has been taken, we must find Naruto hurry!"

And all the ninja rushing out yelled"YES!!" 'Now let's see what these events will reveal,will Mizuki expose other possible helper, and what choice will Naruto take in the end' thought the Hokage then with a sigh said"Haa...i'm getting to old for this it's time to start searching for a 5th Hokage"

Then while walking in his study to reach his loved peeping ball "Should i call Jiraiya back?or maybe opt for the younger Kakashi?or maybe i can somehow tell Jiraiya to find and convince Tsunade" reaching the studio, sitting down and starting searching for Naruto to check on the situation "Well i'll talk about this with Homura,Koharu and Danzo at a later date now let's focus on the present"

After a while he finally finds Naruto "Ohh it seems that Iruka found Naruto first, but then he was attacked by Mizuki..." and the drama continue till Mizuki reveal why everybody treat Naruto so bad.

About the rule that no ninja should ever tell that the Kyuubi was sealed inside Naruto by the 4th, but somehow the rule was broken and when we found and killed the culprit the damage was already done ,and the rumors that somehow Naruto was the Demon Fox himself made is way to all civilians who in turn while still not saying anything still treated bad Naruto and told their children to stay away from him.

"Shit, Mizuki told Naruto and now is afraid like never before, the power that was sealed may be released and even if that scroll doesn't have the most dangerous jutsu there is still a one in a million chance that the Kyuubi may be released once more, and if that happen Naruto will die"

In the end the case stops and Mizuki tries to convince a now wounded Iruka while saying "If you use the jutsu in that scroll you can do everything you want,there is no way that the demon fox wouldn't try to use that power ,unlike what you are assuming" and Iruka replies "Yeah,the demon fox would do that, but Naruto is different"

Naruto hidden near is moved as Iruka continues"I've acknowledge him as one of my excellent student, he may not be the hardest worker, and he's clumsy so nobody accepts him, he already knows what is like to know pain in his heart."

"He isn't the demon fox, he is a member of Konoha, he is Uzumaki Naruto!" and at this moment Mizuki tries to kill Iruka once and for all but is stopped by Naruto who then use the only jutsu he learned from the scroll.Using the hand seals that take the form of a cross he screams"Kagebushin no Jutsu" and divide himself in a thousand of copies overwhelming Mizuki.

Seeing till this point the Hokage cut the connection and stood up while going in front of the mansion where some chunin where discussing where to continue searching 'He's an Uzumaki indeed to have enough chakra to make a thousand of copies even with is lousy control'

'And in the end he made the right choice,he is going be an excellent Konoha ninja, now thanks to that brat and that little monster Ren today i have to change the team composition of this year....i'll assign Naruto to his father disciple Kakashi together with the Uchiha survivor Sasuke that is "best" of this year and Ren's sister Sakura that got excellent mark and is one of the best kunoichi of this year'

'As for Ren he need to stay low-key so is jonin sensei will be Hayate Gekko as he is a kenjutsu specialist too...and the other two....yes there is that pair of brothers failed by Kakashi last year, their name are Taro and Jiro if I remember well...'

While lost in thought the 3rd Hokage reached is destination and told the ninja still planning"There is nothing to worry about he's been found and will be back soon you can go back the emergency passed".
