Naruto POV
I am walking down the streets of Kohona. I'm not quite used to walking down this street without being glared at or being hit by Sakura. Suddenly, I see a BBQ shop. The meeting spot of the Kohona 12- well, now eleven, but still. I see the good ol' group in the shop. Now is the time for eavesdropping. I walk into the shop and sit a the table next to theirs. I observe the Kohona 11 carefully. Neji and Tenten obviously have the hots for each other, though probably haven't admitted it yet. Shika and Temari are flirting in the special way that they do, Lee is still blooming with 'youth,' some things never change. Chogi is wolfing down food at twice the pace he used to go, Ino and Sai are together, which is weird, but I ain't judgin'. I guess Hinata finally got over me and looks happy with Kiba. Shino is creepy lookin' as ever, and Sakura and Sasuke are exchanging saliva, if you catch my drift. The waiter approaches.
"What can I get for you today sir?" He asks politely.
"I'll have an all you can eat beef, please." I reply.
"Ok."
Once the order comes, I hear the Kohona 11 start to talk about me.
"You see him? He's the Black Kitsune. He took down Me, Sasuke, and Kakashi. He has also seen Naruto!" Sakura says.
"I'll bet he'll take off his mask while he eats! Let's look and see!" Kiba says. Yeah right. That's gonna happen. I make some hand signs.
"Nutrients absorption jutsu!" I say. I need just soaks into my skin. It tastes so good. I then look over at the 11.
"Need something?" I ask.
"Yes. I heard you saw our friend, Naruto Uzumaki. Could you tell him to return to Kohona?" Hinata asks. Wow. Her stutter is completely gone.
"I see your stuttering has improved. Kiba worked wonders on you. May I sit?" I reply. They are confused. None of them know how I knew Kiba's name or how Hinata stuttered. I sit.
"As for Naruto, Hinata, Kohona holds more pain for him that you know. Sasuke and Sakura can tell you. I doubt he would come back to the village. Who knows? He may be loyal to another village? He might have retired as a shinobi. But I can tell you this. The Naruto Uzumaki that you know is dead.  I met a dead-eyed man that has killed more people than any of you. Together, him and I have taken SS assassination requests. I have seen him ruthlessly kill.  I know that you all cracked him. He harbors no love for Kohona. If he got an assassination request to kill the Hokage and all of you, I am certain that he would do it, without second thought.    The human heart and body can take only so much abuse. Kohona exceeded the limit of what even your Ray of sunshine could take." I answer Hinata. They all look shocked, especially when I tell them that I would take an assassination request to kill them. I told the truth.
"Naruto would never kill anyone!" Ino argues.
"Ever heard of The Bloodbath of Iwa?" I ask. That was when I mercilessly killed 250 Iwa shinobi along with the Tsuchikage. The Kohona 11 nod.
"250 Iwa shinobi along with the Tsuchikage faced off against an unknown number of enemies. Not one lived." Shikamaru says.
"Yup. They faced one enemy. Naruto Uzumaki." I reply. They all pale at how strong I have become. "On that note, I need to talk to you in private, Neji." I say. He is shocked at how I know his name as well. I pull him out of the shop.
"Listen dude. Man up. Just ask Tenten out already, man! It's obvious just by looking that you two like each other, just do it!" I say. He looks shocked, than he thinks for a bit, and nods.
"Will do. Thanks Kitsune!"
"Oh, and if Dog Breath hurts Hinata, take him out, okay?" At this Neji smiles.
"Always." He says. We walk back in.
"Well, see you, Shikamaru, Temari, Ino, Sai, Choji, Sakura, Sasuke, Hinata, Kiba, Shino, Lee, Neji, and Tenten." I say, making sure to thoroughly boggle them by saying all their names as I walk out of the shop. An ANBU teleports to me.
"Hokage-sama wants you."
