CHAPTER 23

Currently in the hokage tower;

Hiruzen was sitting on his chair silently as he thought about something while the other shinobis gathered they were currently looking at him but didn't say anything.

"Go inform this to Tsunade and Jiraya" Hiruzen said to Asuma Kakashi.

"You all can go now"(Hiruzen)

After bowing to him the four of them left the room and went outside the building. Outside they found out the other shinobis talking among themselves.

"What are you all doing here?" Kakashi asked them.

"The same reason you guys were there. We got info that two strangers were heading to the hokage tower so we decided to come her. But what we found was completely overwhelming you know" Tsume said in an annoyed voice.

"So was that really Uzumaki Naruto and who was that girl along with him? Tell me Asuma!" Kurenai urged her husband to tell her{ Yes, kurenai and Asuma have gotten married and they have a girl, but this time kurenai hasn't retired}

"I..it seems like it is really is Naruto and the girl who was with him seems to be his sister" Asuma said scratching his head.

" What?!" Kurenai and the other senior shinobis like Guy and Tsume were confused. They thought how could Naruto have a sister?

"Well whatever, we need to inform Jiraya sama and Tsunade sama about this. And you all can go back now" Kakashi said as he sighed.

Slowly they all went their separate ways to perform there duties. But they knew that a storm was going to come which would change their life with the return of Naruto Uzumaki.

******************************************

Currently Naruto and his sister were roaming in the streets of Konoha. They were attracting quite a lot of attention. People were looking at them and whispering among themselves. They also had a look of fear in their eyes. Someone had spread the information that Naruto Uzumaki had returned. They were scared that the fox demon was here for revenge so they decided to look for themselves how the fox brat looked now after so many years. And if they found him to be a threat they would do the same thing they did years ago.

Naruto and Nanako came across a ramen store.

" Hey Nanako wanna eat something?" Naruto asked completely ignoring the people who were following them.

"Sure why not" She said as she looked around to see those people slowly walking towards them. Looking at them she smirked.

"Alright let's check this shop" Naruto said as he pulled his sister towards the ramen shop.

*********************************************

Currently in some underground place Danzo was listening to the reports which one of his root ninjas had brought recently.

He was smiling as he heard more of the report.

"Hehehe, so the fox had returned. This time he cannot escape me" Danzo said sinsterly as he ordered his root ninjas to gather so that he can finally capture the fox brat.

*********************************************

Currently an important meeting was going to start in the konoha's council room. Various figures were sitting and discussing the most recent thing they had heard sometimes ago.

One of them said in a solemn voice," So did you heard that the demon brat has returned?"

"Yes, it seems like he returned back from whenever he went too. We need to imprison him now" a female council member said as her face distorted in anger.

" I was informed that Lord Danzo is on the move to capture him" said the head council member with a disdainful voice.

"What should we do for the meantime and what about Lord hokage, doesn't he plan to do anything?" another member asked as he looked a bit worried.

" I have sent my people to go and keep eye on the brat. As for Lord hokage, my men doesn't seem to have find any movements from him" The head councilman said.

After that they busied themselves in a heated conversation about how to put down the demon fox this time.

*********************************************

In the ramen store named 'Ramen Ichiraku';

"Hey old man you got something good" Said Naruto to the middle aged man who was currently preparing ramen and the owner of the shop Teuchi, as he and Nanako sat down in the shop.

"Ah yes we got all types of ramen" The man said smilingly.

" Give us your best!" Naruto said with a smirk.

"Sure" The man said.

At this time outside the shop a crowd had gathered around. There were many quite a number of people. There were men, women, children and even a few shinobis. They were discussing among themselves.

Suddenly a few men came out of the crowd. They seemed to be civilians. They all had rage filled expressions on. They approached the shop and one of them yelled,

"YOU DEMON BRAT COME OUT HERE RIGHT AT THIS INSTANT!!!"

The man had an crazed expression on his face. He held a wooden stick in his hand.

The crowd also became somewhat fired up after the man went forward and said this. The also started to support him by shouting.

At this moment inside the shop;

Nanako was pissed. The veins on her forehead could be seen and there was a terrifying expression on her face. Her eyes had turned golden and there were fangs in her mouth.Even Teuchi was afraid to look at her.

"I am going out to teach them a lesson!!" She said as she tried to stand up but was stopped by her brother.

"Let ME do it. Its time for some payback" Said Naruto as he slowly got up from his seat. He had narrowed his eyes and smirk on his face. He then went out to meet them.

On the outside he saw the crowd intensely staring at him.

"What do you want?" He said.

"Get out of this village you freak!!!" a woman screamed as she pointed her finger at him.

"And why the hell should I listen to you, crazy bitch?" Naruto said as he looked at the woman who was astonished.

Even the crowd of people were also astonished because the fox best dared to talk back at them.

" How dare you talk to her like that you demon brat?!!!" Said the man with the crazed expression as he rushed at Naruto pointing the wooden stick at him with his right hand.

*HAAAAAAA!!* *SMACK* *CRACK*

Naruto without any effort dodged the attack and hold the man's arm as he twisted it and broke it.

"AAAAAARRRGGGH!!!! MY ARM" The man screamed as he fell down on the ground clutching his right arm.

The crowd around were flabbergasted with this event.

Without giving them any heed Naruto lifted the man clutching his neck with his left hand.

Naruto had a mocking expression on his face.
