"Keep it steady Naruto, if you move too much it would fall." Jiraiya said, sipping a cup of tea, while Naruto held a rock half the size of himself, all the while Jiraiya was sitting on it using his chains. While the Chakra Chains could lift of hold any amount of weight, the users mind could become taxed as controlling more than one moving object forces them to multi-task. Not to mention that the chains are extremely malleable, they could gain any tip needed, it could be a kunai tip, a wicked hook, or even a claw, and it could bend in any direction.

Naruto's own chains were terrifying, a glowing black chain, which with a thought could create spike running along the edge. It could even grow blades at random points too. Chakra Chains were a powerful weapon, but also one of the hardest to master. Naruto has been doing the exercise for five minutes and he is already mentally exhausted.

"Your one to talk Pervy Sage all you're doing is drinking tea." Naruto growled out as he felt the chains slipping from their hold.

"It is a good training exercise though, not even you could deny it. After all, it has helped your control of the chains immensely. When you started, you couldn't even lift a pebble." The Sage responded to his apprentice with the same tone as before.

"UGH." Naruto groaned out as his chains dissolved back into formless chakra, dropping the rock, and causing the tea to spill all over the Toad Sage.

"This was my favorite shirt to." Jiraiya said, standing up from his fallen position.

"It's your own fault that you spilt your precious tea." Naruto said, glaring at his sensei taking a much needed rest. Only to receive a headache from his Shadow clones who dispelled.

Ever since Jiraiya became his sensei, he has forced to use Shadow Clones constantly. Even when the original Naruto is asleep, dozens of clones worked until morning, then they dispelled. This was an excellent way to train, though waking up with a small headache is never fun.

"Well, you're done for the day, so go get ready for your date with Kurenai Hana and hinata ." Jiraiya said, smirking at the end.

"WE ARE NOT DATING, WE'RE JUST FRIENDS!" Naruto screamed out at his sensei.

Ever since he found out that Naruto spends a lunch with hinata and hana or training session with Kurenai, he could not stop teasing Naruto about it.

Deciding to just leave it, Naruto left the Training ground and went to the Dango Shop.

'Keep telling yourself kid, that is how it always begins.' Jiraiya thought to himself as he watched his young student leave. He had a flashback with another blonde, only a red haired fire-cracker was with him. Of course they were only 'Training' with each other, that is why their appearances were so ruffled after all.

Watching his young charge walk, allowed Jiraiya to continue preparing his surprise for the blonde. After all, he still had to make up for those birthdays he missed and he knew just what to make.

>>>>>

1 month and 3 weeks have passed and only one more week to go for the finals. In that time, Naruto has adequate control over his chains, along with mastering the basics of his elements. Not only that, but his Ninjutsu and Genjutsu have risen to Jonin and Chunin respectively. His greatest achievements were his Fuinjutsu, his Kenjutsu, thorn, ice, disaster, insects, bones, zombies, and his Death Jutsu. Which it the name he calls his death abilities.

Jiraiya had even a scythe to use in conjunction with his Death Energy because hi didn't want the road contact

This brought tears to the white haired child; after all, he never received a proper gift before. The only thing he remembers were his beloved Gama-Chan, and his night cap, that his godfather gave him.

The Scythe was a thing of beauty, and a rather imitating piece of metal. It stood at 6' tall, with the staff part being ebony wood. The blade was pitch black, and reflected no light. Along the blade were glowing red seals, and strengthening and chakra storage seals along the staff, though you can't really see them with the ebony. The seals along the blade were designed to allow chakra to circulating through the metal easier, along with making the blade diamond hard. He really only used the blade when in his death form, as the Katana fits his body type better than a scythe.

he also was able to find out how to use his elemental ninjutsu threw the skulls that his eye give him. and even was able to see the ghost of the first 2 hokage the first's wife.

and now he was able to bring them back to life as zombies. then he mastered the long range skull attacks, dead bone pulse, and his skellital hand defense.

but his favorite was his summons and a jutsu he made to help make his summons stronger during the day.

now he is at a council meeting about his powers.

((((((((

The Konoha Council was divided into two factions - the Shinobi Council and the Civilian Council.

The Shinobi Council is made up of the Konoha clan heads, as well as the two advisors of the Hokage. The main clans include the Hyuuga, Aburame, Akimichi, Nara, Uchiha, and the Inuzuka. The Uchiha representative was Danzo Shimura since Uchiha Sasuke is still underage and the eldest, Uchiha Itachi, is a missing nin. And each with there respected heir

The Civilian Council is made up of the wealthy merchants in Konoha with sakura.

The Hokage explained to Naruto the two council factions and his standing among them. The Shinobi Council is either neutral or favorable to his plight since most of them followed the Forth's wishes for you to be treated as a hero. The only exception to this rule is the Hyuuga. The Civilian Council, however, is another matter entirely. They are against Naruto since he holds the Kyuubi. This caused a stalemate when it comes to votes but the Hokage was sure that he can sway them to Naruto's side due to his powerful bloodline.

When the Hokage and Naruto entered the Council Chamber, the boy noticed that everyone was bickering over one thing and another. The whole scenario didn't really make much of an impression with Naruto.

"Don't worry too much about it kit. Humans have always been like this. You've seen one you've seen them all." said Kyuubi, amused over the Council's pseudo superiority.

"Why are they acting like that then?" asked Naruto.

"Simple kit. From what I gather. The Civilian Council have been trying to usurp the Hokages powers for years now. If I remember correctly, Minato told Kushina about it while I was sealed inside her. He was trying hard to stop their power grabbing schemes but he was only able to do so much. I guess the Hokage is now pushed back to the back seat unless he takes away the power that they have right now."

"Why won't gramps do that then? He is the Hokage after all. He is the leader of the village."

"Yes. He can do that but he might be working on that right now starting with you. It seems that you gave him back his backbone." said an amused Kyuubi.

His conversation was cut short when one of the Civilian Council members made it known to the Hokage of Naruto's presence.

"Lord Hokage. We were wondering why you called us for an important meeting. Also, why is that boy doing here?" the councilman sneered. The Hokage just gave the offending party long look and made it known why HE was the Hokage and they were just advisers.

"Tell me councilman Haruno. Who am I?" asked the Hokage.

"You're the Hokage, Lord Hokage." Councilman haruno immediately answered.

"Good councilman Haruno. So let me ask you this, WHO GAVE YOU PERMISSION TO ASK ME WHY I CALLED FOR A COUNCIL MEETING?" the Hokage shouted the last part and leaked a bit of his killing intent that made the Civilian Council cower in fear.

The Shinobi Council stood straight. It seems that something happened that made Hiruzen Sarutobi bring out his long-lost backbone. For them, they were looking at the God of Shinobi, the Professor, and the Third Hokage of the village hidden in the leaves. Even the every stoic Danzo smiled at this.

"For the past years since I've taken the mantle of Hokage again from Minato, I noticed that the Civilian Council are turning MY village as their own. So let me ask you this, is Konoha a shinobi village or a civilian village?" asked the Hokage in a cold voice. He addressed the entire council, daring them to answer his question.

The Nara clan head answered. "Konoha is a shinobi village Hokage-sama".

"Good to know that. So let me remind the Council that this is a shinobi village so this is purely MY village. I'm the LEADER of Konoha. The Council is just my advisors. YOU DON'T GIVE ME ORDERS. I GIVE ORDERS. IF I SAY YOU JUMP, YOU ASK HOW HIGH. IF I SAY YOU LEAVE THEN YOU SHOULD RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN. DO YOU ALL UNDERSTAND ME?" he released his barely-restrained killer intent at the Civilian Council making some of them pass out from the strain. And the genin look in fear.

He looked around as if daring for anyone to tell him otherwise. After a few seconds of silence, he took charge of the meeting. "Good, now we can start. I called you all here regarding some recent developments that occurred here in Konoha that will greatly affect its future."

"What developments Hokage-sama?" asked the Hiashi Hyuuga.

"This is concerning multiple bloodlines that woke up in Uzumaki Naruto after the second part of his exam in the forest of death."

This brought out a lot of whispers from the Shinobi Council and their children. The Civilian Council and sakura, however, were in total denial that the boy have any bloodlines and that it is a trick to fool the Hokage. Hearing that the meeting was starting to degenerate into a total argument, he slammed his hand hard on the table that calmed everyone down.

"Thank you for the silence." he said sarcastically. "Anyway, it seems that Naruto-kun was blessed by the god of death from his time in the forest."

"The boy is an orphan lord Hokag. He doesn't have anything special about him that said god would give him a bloodline." One of the Civilian Council sneered.

"Really now councilman. Let me ask you this, do I need to give you the talk?" asked the Hokage.

"What?" the councilman stuttered out .

"I said if I need to give you the talk. It seems to me that you don't know how babies are made. I assure you that Naruto didn't just come out of the cabbage patch or a stork brought him to Konoha." The Shinobi Council laughed at this while the Civilians were glaring at them.

"To continue, I brought Naruto here to explain how his bloodlines work. I'll supply the facts that he left out since I knew both his parents personally." The Hokage motioned for Naruto to step forward to begin his explanation which he did. He explained what happened with the mobs yesterday that made the Civilian Council nervous.

When he finished his explanation, one of the Shinobi Council, the Nara clan head, asked. "So Uzumaki-san, can you demonstrate to us your bloodlines and necromantic powers?" Naruto nodded and closed his eyes. He channeled chakra to his eyes to activate his Elemental skulls.

The entire Konoha Council gasped. Naruto was surrounded by 5 skulls of lights, each of different colors, taking their rightful position around Naruto's body. They stared in awe when Naruto opened his eyes and showed them his eyes, revealing his doujutsu - black eyes and a star pupils.

"This is my bloodline that is activated through my eyes. It is called natures eye"

"So what do they do Uzumaki-san?" Tsume, the Inuzuka clan head, asked.

" this one is composed of two main elements according to the hokage. And the skulls are a part of me that control each basic element and allow me to look into the spirit world and help me summon and spirit when I need help".

This shocked the entire council. A bloodline of this magnitude has never been seen throughout the entire Elemental Nations. The power to control Chakra and the Elements is practically the most powerful bloodline in the world. Most of the Shinobi councils were drooling over the possibility of such bloodline while the civilians were busy plotting on how to get Naruto under their wings to control such power.

"What are those Skulls surrounding you?" The Aburame clan head asked.

"These are what I call Elemental skulls shinobi-san. They serve as both my offense and defense. The defense is automatic. When it sense danger, it can act without my will to protect me."

"Interesting, can we test it out?" Danzo asked, interested over the possibility of such bloodline.

Getting a nod from Naruto, he snapped his fingers twice and one of the hidden ANBUs in the chamber threw two shurikens at Naruto at blinding speed. However, before the shurikens could hit Naruto, a wall of water shot out from the blue skull and intercepted the projectile. Danzo snapped his fingers again twice and a hail of kunai seems to shot out from the wall but before it could hit Naruto, a wall of wind surrounded him that deflected the kunais away that almost hit the council members in the room.

The entire council was shocked at the power of such bloodline. It was indeed the ultimate defense. Uzumaki Naruto has power over the elements and to use them as his ultimate defense. This was unheard off.

"Interesting indeed Uzumaki-san. It seems that your bloodline is quite powerful." said Danzo. "However, what would happen if someone attacked you directly?" Before anyone could stop him, he snapped his fingers once again and this time an ANBU rushed out from the shadow, ready to impale him with his katana.

Naruto saw this and pushed his right arm out and immediately willed the flames to protect him. The Fire skull shot out a stream of fire that created a wall of flames that surrounded him, effectively stopping the attacking ANBU from his tracks. He twirled his hands in a counter-clockwise gesture and a stream of water, like a whip, shot out from the Water skull and grabbed the attacker and immobilized him in the air. He raised his other hand palms facing forward to the attacker for the flames surrounding him to suddenly twirl around the suspended ANBU, ready to burn him off.

Everyone was silent for a few moments before the Hokage coughed catching everyone's attention. "I think that is enough for a demonstration Naruto-kun. You can put him down now before anyone gets hurt." He finished the statement while giving Danzo a glare, daring him to do it again. Danzo just gave him a smirk but backed down from the dare.

Naruto nodded pulled the flame and water back to their respective orbs, but letting them stay active just in case of more attacks. The Elemental Orbs just weaves around him, as if ready to protect its master from further attacks. "Sorry about that jiji, I guess I got carried away." He replied sheepishly, scratching the back of his head.

The Hokage just waved the apology with a gesture of his hand "It's ok Naruto-kun. Now for another." He said

Naruto nodded and called upon his magnetic release making all the knives in the room float. "This was a gift from war of the horsemen th power to manipulate my enemy's weapons this is magnet release," then the knives fell to the ground then he did hand seals and called water to his hand and mad if freeze " ice release from a friend that did and begged Lord death to give me his power" then naruto started to call to his insects and from his body came small insects that had a greenish glow " gift from pestilence similar to the arubama clan I can summon a swarm of locusts that both drain my enemy's from chakra but also releases a disease that weaken or to kill Emily's" then naruto called his locusts into his body. Then naruto bring out a bone from his body showing his dead bone release then summoning skulls to shoot a beam of darkness that can destroy a a small 3 storey house fully charged, then his skeletal hands then his powers of a necromancer by summoning both the 1 and 2 Hokage and made every one faint. Then he showed his thorn release which was similar to the first's wood release but high thorns and flowers and then told them about his disaster release and made it rain outside by saying drip drop drop drip. Then summoned a skull slasher and told them what darkness creature are And his summoning contract.

"So to continue, I would like to announce Naruto-kun's inheritance. From this day onward, he shall take up his father's clan leadership. Starting today, he shall be address as Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto."

The entire Konoha Council erupted into pandemonium.

Chaos. The Konoha Council was in total uproar. The Shinobi-side of the council was excited over the prospect of returning the Namikaze clan into Konoha. However, the Civilian Council were in total denial - not only was the Kyubi brat in possession of practically one of the most powerful elemental bloodline to date, power to control dead and sickness, ice magnet thorn and disaster release and read bone pulse and a new summoning contract that is amazing, but also the son of their hero the fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato.

Both Sarutobi and Naruto were amused over their antics; they were expecting chaos but this takes the cake. Everyone was in total uproar. It was hilarious and both were dismayed of not bringing any camera with them to immortalize the faces of the entire council.

Sarutobi let the council go wild for a few more minutes. He and Naruto both discussed how training was going and So on.

The Shinobi Council eventually settled down but the excited smirk on their faces proved to be enlightening to both Naruto and the Hokage. Even the stoic Hiashi Hyuuga was showing a slight smirk, to the trained eye of course, that tells that he was happy with the news. It made Sarutobi a bit weary since Hiashi was known to be a schemer so he may have plans with the young Namikaze.

The Civilian Council, however, was discussing among themselves the absurdity of the idea regarding the demon brat being the fourth's son. Considering that they weren't that smart to begin with so the bare facts that the Shinobi Council already realized eluded them.

Sarutobi was brought out of his musings when the head of the Civilian Council shouted to get his attention. The offender was no other than the Haruno councilman.

"This is absurd, Hokage. It is not possible for the boy to be Namikaze son." ranted the councilman.

"Oh? Really now councilman Haruno? Do you have any facts that prove otherwise?" inquired an amused Sarutobi.

"We all know for a fact that the fourth has never married. If it was then his son's parentage would have been known throughout the entire village."

The Hokage nodded. "That is true but that is the reason why ALL OF YOU don't know about his personal life."

"Explain yourself Hokage." said another Civilian council member.

"I DON'T have to explain myself to you but I will humor you just this once. Now, before we go into the legalities of the Namikaze-Uzumaki heir. Let me first ask you this. Do you think that Naruto is the exact replica of the Fourth when he was young? Get rid of the whisker marks and change the outfit then you will see what I'm talking about."

Everyone stared at Naruto which made him squirm in his seat. It wasn't always that he becomes the center of attention so he was unused to the feeling.

The Nara clan head spoke first. "You are correct. He does indeed look a lot like Minato when he was still young. I should know. He was quite close with the Ino-Shika-Cho (Inoichi-Shikaku-Chouza) group during our pre-Genin days." The rest of the Shinobi Council agreed at this.

"Also, his temper and attitude reminds me too much of Kushina when she was young. And his quote scary attitude when my son talked about him being abandons ,sorry about his foolishness, She was quite a spitfire that girl. Not to mention the pranks she pulled." said Tsume Inuzuka, chuckling all the while as she remembered the young hothead. And every gennin shiver when they remembered naruto killer intent when kiba said that and Kiba hiding behind his mother.

"Indeed. Remember when she clobbered Jiraiya when he was caught peeking at the Kunoichis." said a laughing Chouza. "He stayed in the hospital for a week after she was done with him."

Every Shinobi Council member chuckled at that. The Civilian Council just glared at them.

"That is not enough reason to believe that the de...boy is the son of the fourth." said one council woman. With Sakura agreeing with her.

"You are correct. That is why I brought with me the marriage contract of both Kushina and Minato. It was a private ceremony held in my office, witnessed by Jiraiya and Tsunade. Also, here is the birth certificate of Naruto-kun when he was born during the Kyubi attack signed by both Tsunade and Hikari Sato who took charge of the birthing." said the Hokage, holding up two documents and passed them first to the Shinobi Council. When the Civilian Council got their hands on the documents, they poured all their attention to it to make sure that everything is legal - and to their dismay it was ironclad. It was official. Uzumaki Naruto is indeed Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto, the son of Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina.

The Hokage coughed to return their attention back to him. "Now we will take a vote should Naruto-kun get his inheritance according to Minato's will." He called for a vote and all the Shinobi Council, as well as some of the Civilian Council raised their hands in agreement. The only ones left were the Hokage Advisors, Homaru and Koharu, Danzo, and some of the Civilian Council.

"Then it is official. Naruto-kun will take the Namikaze-Uzumaki clan leadership and all assets that come with it. Considering that he is still a minor, I will be temporarily taking over his seat in the council until he becomes an adult when he graduates and become a chunnin of Konohagakure no Sato."

"But Hokage, if Namikaze is given clan head status when he reach chunnin then Uchiha Sasuke should also be instated as the clan head as well." one councilman shouted. With Sasuke and Sakura smirking up a storm.

"You are correct but we can never deny the fact that Uchiha Sasuke is NOT the clan head. Itachi is still the eldest of the surviving Uchiha clan so until he is dead, Sasuke is not the clan head." said the Hokage calmly. "Is there any else?" he demanded over the shouting of the Civilian Council Sakura and sasuke

Seeing most of the members of the Council shake their heads in negative, he continued. "If there aren't any more on the agenda then I call this session of the Konoha Council to a close. You are all dismissed."

With that, the Hokage nudged Naruto out of the chamber leaving behind a smiling Shinobi Council, fuming Civilian Council, and of course, some plotting members to get the boy under their control and all the influence he holds.
