The Third Birthday of the Hyuga Princess

Two years passed since Orochimaru became a Missing-Nin and Yone was running behind Naruto who was chasing Red around the courtyard.

Naruto learned how to control his Chakra from a young age since Yone was spoiling his grandson by teaching him how to get his cat from the tree by climbing it by releasing Chakra underneath his feet.

Minato, as well as Kushina, are against Yone teaching Naruto from a young age but what can they do when Yone is the most normal person in their family except for the women in their family.

Yahiko wanted to teach Naruto how to throw Shurikens while Nagato was showing him some Ninjutsu that a child Naruto's age could learn after hard work and Hori was trying to teach Naruto Fuinjutsu every time he was at home.

The girls only spoiled the youngest member of the family with candy and hugs which made Yone think that they are softening up now that they have a nephew.

Yone left Naruto with his aunts as he began to change into more traditional clothes which have the Senju and Uzumaki symbols on the back. He was invited by the Hyuuga Clan to the birthday of their first Princess.

Yone and the former Hyuga Head couldn't look at each other without that a fight broke out because Yone removed the seal on Haru's forehead. But the new head was a different story, Hiashi has a twin brother who had to go through the same treatment as the other branch members because he was born some seconds later than him.

Yone was ready to go as he was carrying Naruto on his shoulders while having his gift for the princess in his inside pocket. Kushina and Minato were invited as well as most of the Clan Heads in the village including the Uchiha Clan.

The Uchiha Clan had a better image after Danzo's death since most of the bad rumors about them disappeared making the Clan more open to the public than it would be originally.

"Naruto, your friends will be there but you should behave since you aren't at home, do you understand," says Kushina seriously at the young boy who was only three years old.

"Now come on Kushina, he is just a boy. Let him have some fun until he turns five and needs to enter the Academy," says Yone trying to get Kushina to calm down since it was normal that a boy Naruto's age would run around and get into trouble.

"Your uncle was the same age. He would run around chasing me trying to imitate me or our father," says Yone talking about Nawaki's dark past as a troublemaker.

"How about we bury out some of your past crimes," says Nawaki from behind Yone.

"You can try if you still find some," says Yone in a funny way making the brothers begin to laugh out loud.

Nawaki was invited as well since he is the Head of the Senju Clan. Haru and his daughter, Utsumi, were his plus two.

"Uncle Yone," says Utsumi happy as she jumped at Yone hugging him.

"How is our Senju Princess doing today," says Yone warmly as he petted her head.

Utsumi is a happy and energetic girl which reminds Yone of Tsunade when she was younger. They soon arrived at the Hyuga Compound and were greeted by Hiashi, his wife, and the birthday girl herself.

Yone put Naruto down as he pushed him towards the birthday girl so he could congratulate her on her birthday and make a new friend.

Yone had less than a handful of friends and knew what it means to be left out of things. He didn't want that for his children and their children.

Naruto was quite good at making friends reminding Yone of his grandfather who could do the same. Yone was watching as Naruto pulled the Hyuga princess behind himself.

Naruto presented the Princess to his other friends making Yone happy before he looked in another direction seeing the Elders of the Hyuga Clan look at him furiously.

Yone only smiled at them since it was like a victory for him to touch Hyuga soil without consequences. Yone might be old with his forty-two years but he could be childish sometimes when it comes to little grudges like the one he has with the Elders of the Hyuga Clan.

Everything was going well with Yone ignoring the Elders and they ignored him when spots five Kumo Shinobi entering the Compound.

Kumo and Konoha became allies after the Third Shinobi War making this just a diplomatic decision of letting them attend the birthday on behalf of the Raikage who can't leave Kumo because of his duties.

Yone was keeping his eyes on the Kumo Shinobis as he puts his gift on the table filled with birthday gifts when Minato walks to his side.

"Don't stare at our guests so intensely, the people might begin to think that you want to kill them," whispers Minato into Yone's ears from an angle the Kumo Ninjas couldn't see it.

"I am just keeping an eye on them. I can't have them ruin the birthday of my future student," says Yone since the Hyuga princess would enter the Academy sooner or later making him her teacher.

"Come on, old bone, there are so many people here. I don't think they would dare to do something while we are around," says Minato trying to calm Yone down.

"Old Bone? For you, it is still father-in-law," says Yone as he leaves to talk to his former students since almost all people that are younger than 34 years would have to attend at least a year under Yone before they graduated.

The night was going great and Yone relaxed for a bit before he noticed that two children were nowhere to be seen.

He turned madly around since one of them was his grandson while the other was the Princess of the Hyuga Clan. Minato noticed his behavior as did everyone else in the celebration making Minato, as well as Kushina, walk toward him.

"Father, I think that you are overplaying it now. Didn't you say yourself that we should let Naruto be a child," says Kushina since she noticed Naruto was missing but thought that Naruto must be running around playing with his friends.

Yone turned towards her daughter looking at her seriously making Kushina feel dread, not for herself since her father would never lay a hand on her nor her siblings.

But for what could happen next as Yone suddenly looks in the direction of where the Kumo Ninjas were staying finding only one of them talking to someone while drinking water instead of sake like everyone else.

"They are here on a mission and we all fell for it," whispers Yone to the two as Yone suddenly radiated killing intent that made everyone feel fear in the room as his body was leaking Darkness and Fire and the earth began to tremble under his feet.

"Yone!" shouts Hiruzen trying to bring Yone down when he suddenly disappeared.

Hiruzen walks toward Minato and Kushina who have never seen Yone like this in all their life when Hiruzen asks, "What happened for him to turn like this?"

"Naruto disappeared out of our field of view as well as the Princess of the Hyuga Clan. We told him that he must be playing as he wanted Naruto but he noticed that some of the Kumo Shinobis left and the last one here is drinking water," says Minato in a shocking state as he looked at Hiruzen fearfully wanting to ask a question only for Hiruzen to sigh.

"Your father-in-law never showed this face to you two has he," says Hiruzen not wondering about it since Yone tried to hide this side of his deep inside him.

"Many have forgotten the title he received from our enemy because they are either dead or want to forget that nightmare," says Hiruzen as all in the room except for Nawaki and his wife were too young to know the title Yone received on the battlefield.

"Wasn't it, Yone the Walking Flame?" asks Inoichi making Hiruzen sigh before he shakes his head.

"That was one of the former titles that he uses to cover his real title," says Hiruzen as the Elders of the Hyuga Clan were trembling from remembering that title before the former head steps forward.

"Why do you think that man can do whatever he wants in this village?" asks the former head of the Hyuga Clan who is Hiashi's father everyone in the room.

"It must be because everyone respects him," says Choza confused as Nawaki steps forward.

"It isn't because everyone respects him even if it has changed with the younger generation," says Nawaki warmly before he turned serious as he looked at everyone before saying, "It is because everyone feared my older brother that is why he could do as he pleased in the village."

They were shocked to hear that the older generation feared their lovable teacher when Nawaki looked coldly at the Kumo Ninja and says, "I hope Kumo is ready to bear the responsibility for what is to come if they are responsible for the disappearance of my grandnephew and the Princess of the Hyuga Clan."

"Do you think we are scared of Konoha and your empty threats," says the Kumo Ninja angry to be accused of kidnapping two children playing his part to perfection.

"I hope so because the Slaughterer of Tsuchi and Kaze has awakened from his deep slumber and he doesn't compromise," says Nawaki coldly as everyone turned pale.

In history, they were taught that the Slaughterer died in the Second Shinobi War after fulfilling his revenge by bringing the heads of the enemies Daimyos and Kages.

"Yone didn't want the younger generations to know his actual title so we came up with the idea to let him die at the end of the war while Yone the Walking Flame returned from the battlefield injured after fighting against Suna," says Hiruzen explaining why they never heard the older generation talk about Yone's achievements in the war.

The Kumo Ninja never heard of this title before and he asks, "Why are you all that scared of an old man?"

"That old man ran rampage for almost two months and killed the Kazekage and Tsuchikage as well as burning their villages and killing almost everything that stood in his way on his own.

What do you think he will do to the Raikage and Kumo if he finds out that you have something to do with the disappearance of his only grandson?" says Hiruzen warning the Kumo Ninja as he didn't want Yone to walk that path again.

Yone appeared again and was surrounded by the Kumo Ninjas. He sees a knocked-out Naruto and he removed his contacts before looking at them coldly.

"Has Kumo sent you here to kidnap them?" asks Yone as the Ninjas could feel pressure on their body just from hearing his voice before Yone asks, "Or did you do it on your own account?"

They couldn't even move because of the pressure they were feeling when Yone took a step forward and the earth under them began to shake wildly making them lose their footing.

"It seems that the Shinobis of this generation have become weaker compared to the shinobis of the older generation," says Yone as he disappeared and appeared again before one of them.

He places both his hand's fingertips on the chest of one of the Kumo Ninjas before pressing them into the chest making the person feel extreme pain before Yone ripped the chest open making everyone see the inside of the Kumo Ninja he just killed.

He turned to the others and says coldly, "Are you going to talk, or do I have to kill you as well?"

"We surrender," says one of them in fear as Yone was covered in the blood and intestines of their comrade when Yone appears beside him.

"Surrender doesn't exist in my vocabulary nor does prisoners," says Yone coldly to them sounding almost like a crazy person.

Yone turned his hand into flames and ripped the heart of the person he was talking to. His heart was cooked and he looked at the other two remaining people when he opens his mouth and it looked like he put the heart in his mouth before he closed his mouth.

He pretended to chew on the heart mincing it before he gulped air down his throat while the heart was on his shoulder under his robe but for the enemy, it looked like he ate the whole heart and that they would be next on the menu if they didn't talk.
