Naruto: Fourth Hokage

Anko said nothing as she processed everything that Naruto told her. What she heard was a lot more than what she was counting on finding out. Here it was that Naruto, the boy she ironically nicknamed "Yondaime-gaki" for the way he dresses is in fact the flesh and blood son of Yondaime Hokage, the Hokage that's been greatly revered as the greatest of the Hokages. And on top of this, he's now the adopted son and prodigy of Godaime Hokage and trained also by Jiraiya, the very Sannin who taught and trained Yondaime. Alongside this, he was also trained by Kakashi and Shizune while growing up.

Sandaime was right about this kid, Anko thought after a moment of silence, That explains why he's so advanced for his age and why even Itachi had problems subduing him. This kid is practically Kage level!

The Special Jounin then thought about what Yondaime did to Naruto in sealing the Kyuubi into him. This was a revelation that she found very hard to believe. For years she's been lead to believe that Kyuubi was in fact killed by Yondaime; and now here it was that she was hearing from Yondaime's own son that his father in actuality couldn't kill the bijuu so he sealed it away into his own newborn son at the cost of his life. The older woman wondered what life for Naruto would have been like should the villagers were to have learned that Kyuubi was in fact sealed into the son of whom they regard as the strongest Hokage.

To add to this, he has a fox summoning contract that was made right after Kyuubi was sealed awayinto him. She realized that there was so much more to what really happened the night of Kyuubi's attack than she was told by the Sandaime. Looking at the blonde, Anko said, "Well kid, looks like today has been a most interesting day for the both of us. I always thought that Yondaime succeeded in killing that damn monster."

"Kyuubi can't be kill by mortals Anko-chan, nor can any other bijuu be killed by mortals for that matter," Naruto explained, "They can only be sealed away with the use of kinjutsu ougis, which was what my father did with me during his battle with Kyuubi."

"Do you hate your father for what did," Anko asked curiously with no sense of malicious in her voice.

"Though I didn't have a say in the matter when he sealed Kyuubi into me however," Naruto answered, "I don't hate him. My father did everything in his power to protect this village and everyone who he looked at as precious people. He held back nothing to ensure my and everyone else's survival. He couldn't ask another parent to do something that he himself wasn't willing to do with his own child. I know that was very hard for my father to do what he did, but he was certain that I was capable of containing the Kyuubi. He wanted me to be the hero who saves Konoha everyday by jailing the Kyuubi and denying him its freedom to do as it wishes. This was a responsibility he entrusted me with as his surviving heir and legacy.

"My father loved this village and did what he had to as a father and Hokage to protect all of us with his life. Besides reviving my clan and becoming a great medic nin like kaa-chan; I intend on following my father's example and surpass my father. These are among the reasons why I want became Hokage."

Anko couldn't help but look at Naruto in amazement. In spite of the many troubles and dangers that his life came with, he still had strong positive outlooks for his future.

"You're truly unique," Anko admitted, "But I must admit that I would have never in my all life have thought that I'd being training and be friends with the sole son of Yondaime."

"…Especially after how you tried to kill me for kissing you by accident," Naruto mumbled lowly under his breath, "…Though I did enjoy some of it."

"What was that," Anko eyed suspiciously.

"Oh nothing…," Naruto chuckled nervously while scratching the back of his head.

"You know," Anko remarked with a menacing smile, "I should still kill you for kissing me Yondaime-gaki."

"And which female in all of Konoha wouldn't want to be kissed by the Yondaime's only son," Naruto asked jokingly.

"Oh shut up," Anko shot back with annoyance as a faint blush appeared on her cheeks. Shippo, seeing this, grinned as something came to mind, "Hey, snake lady!"

Anko turned and looked down at Shippo who was still standing next to Naruto.

"What do you want hairball," Anko said.

"From what Naruto-sama described about you to me and my kitsune kins, and seeing that look on your face," Shippo said, "I'd have assumed that you have a crush on him."

"WHAAAAAATT!," Anko yelled at the small humanoid fox who suddenly transformed into a replica of Anko.

"Yondaime-gaki," 'Anko' said with the exact likeness of the actual Anko, except with a more caring and concerned demeanor. The only thing to distinguish the real Anko from the fake was that Shippo's small fox tail was still sticking out from behind. 'Anko' went over to Naruto and started examining him, "Are you hurt? I can help you feel better if you want."

Naruto was already felt bloodlust building up from the real Anko and it was directed at the small trouble-making kitsune.

"I'm fine really," Naruto said trying to get the fox to knock it off.

"Do you want me to sleep with you and help revive your clan," 'Anko' said with a lustful tone.

"YOU'RE DEAD!," the now enraged Anko yelled as she ran after 'Anko' who was now screaming before puffing back into Shippo.

"Damn it!," Shippo yelled, "Can't you take a joke!?"

"I'LL HAVE SOME GOOD LAUGHS WHILE WATCHING YOU BEING SWALLOWED ALIVE BY ONE OF MY SNAKES!," Anko yelled back louder.

"Naruto-sama, please help me," Shippo cried as Anko was shot vipers from out of her sleeves at the fox.

"You're on your own…," Naruto laughed, "…You got yourself into that mess so get yourself out of it!"

"That's not fair," Shippo cried as he continued running from the angry Anko who hot on his tail with poisonous vipers just a few inches from reaching and biting him. After having his laugh, Naruto dismissed Shippo, causing him to puff and disappear from the area, leaving him and Anko alone in the training ground.

"That Shippo is always the troublemaker," Naruto said.

"It's a shame he left," Anko said menacingly, "He'd have made a nice accessory as a fur scarf around my neck."

"Yes I'm sure," Naruto remarked in sarcasm, "Anyway, it's been a really long day for the both of us. How about we head back and get some dangos, my treat."

Being treated to dangos was all Anko needed to hear before her demeanor did a 180 as she ran and retrieved all of her kunais.

"Yondaime-gaki," Anko grinned happily at Naruto, "You really know how to treat a lady."

Going over to the blonde, Anko placed her right arm around his shoulders and pulled him close to her, "I hope you have deep pockets because I'm having sake with extra dangos and bean soup with that order."

The pair started walking off back to the village while part of Naruto was worrying about how much Anko will eat him out financially since she eats as much dangos and bean soup as he does ramen.

What the hell did I just get myself into, Naruto mentally whined as he continued on his way with Anko. What they pair didn't know was that a good distance away from them from a figure who was listening on the conversation between the pair. What the interloper heard from Naruto was most shocking and intriguing.

"So he's both the son of Yondaime Hokage and a Jinchuuriki," said the interloper with a serious demeanor before retracting a particular sword from out of the ground, "This changes everything. I'll have to be ready for him if I'm to take him out. I'll have the son of Yondaime as my greatest prized trophy for sure."
