Hokage office........
Hokage is talking with Tsunade , Shizune and Irene . While Jiraya and Naruto stood behind them . They already explained their encounter with Orochimaru during the mission and how Tsunade beat him down . Now they are discussing about the other matters .
" It's good that you have decided to become the fifth hokage . At first I wanted to give this job to your teammates but one went rouge and other is not interested . Others are not ready for this job . After ten days we can have the offical ceremony ," Hiruzen said to Tsunade . He is very happy that one of his student is becoming hokage . It's the second time he is handing over the position of hokage .
" I will try my best as a hokage and your student to serve the village . Even I didn't hope that I will become the hokage one day . I am just fulfilling the dream of my brother ," Tsunade said to hokage . Even though she is a maid of Naruto she will become hokage in few days and take revenge on the people who eliminated her brother and clan members .
" I can see you brought a guest with you . Is she related with you ? Form her hair I can say she is from the uzumaki clan ," Hiruzen said to her . Even though he knows every detail about her . And he met her before in nazarick , after Naruto summoned her . He cannot show it here and act according to the plan .
" I was away for a certain period of time and many things happened . She is my cousin and sister in law . She is my husband younger sister and she lives with me for a long time ," Tsunade said to hiruzen . She is embarrassed to explain this kind of things . Afterall he is a father figure for her for a very long time .
" Marriage among relatives is quite common in uzumaki and senju's . Where is your husband ? It feels like I have become a father in law . I would love to talk to him . I hope Jiraya is not heartbroken after this news ," Hiruzen said to Tsunade . He always looked up to Tsunade as his own daughter . Hashirama and Tobirama senju took care of him when he was young and they treated him as their son .
" He is mostly busy but this time he went for a world tour . You can meet him on the day of my inauguration as the fifth hokage . He is free spirited guy and nothing can keep him in one place ," Tsunade said to Hiruzen . Even though she is acting it is still embarrassing to talk about her husband like that . She is acting like a new bride in front of her sensei .
" Lord hokage , I have a request as a very close relative of Naruto . He is still only 12 years old and most of his life he is alone so I wanted to take care of him . I promised kushina when I was a child that I will protect her but unfortunately she died before I met her and I couldn't keep my promise . But she will be very happy in her afterlife if I take care of Naruto in her place ," Irene said to Hiruzen . He acted like he is in deep thought .
" I was going to ask the same thing from sensei . I know he is a chunin but he still needs a family and we are directly related to him . It can increase his safety as a jinchuriki who lives with hokage . No one will try to harm him inside the konoha . During the mission he can take care of himself ," Tsunade said to Hiruzen . It was planned by Demiurge as he is in charge of the outside affairs .
The ainz ooal gown members discussed about the security of Naruto many times . At least when he was not in a mission they can give him a tight security . Naruto didn't reject it as they were quite worried about him all the time . They wanted to put Tsunade , Shizune and Irene with him in the same place for his safety and for his daily needs .
" It's a good idea and according to his recent reputation he needs security while he is staying in konoha . I allow it after looking at all the circumstances . What do you think Jiraya about this decision ? " Hiruzen said to them and added a question to his white haired student .
" It is a good plan for the safety of Naruto . I can do my research without having any tension about his safety if Tsunade stays with him ," Jiraya said to Hiruzen . According to his thoughts Naruto should not be alone in his apartment all the time . It's not healthy if he always live alone and he is still a child who needs love and care of others .
" Then I official declare that from now onwards Tsunade , her husband and Irene are the guardian of Naruto . From now onwards Naruto will be in your care so please take a good care of him . When it comes to ladies or girls he is clueless and while living with you he may learn a lot of things . Now all of you may leave as I have a lot of work as hokage for another ten days ," Hiruzen said to them . He took the report of Jiraya about his mission . They left soon afterwards .

Senju compound......
Naruto and others reached towards the senju compound which is almost empty . Jiraya is happy that Naruto has to search for him again if he wants to master rasengan . He started to smile but it was only a few moments .
" If you are thinking that I will come in search of you then you are mistaken . I have already mastered rasengan ," Naruto said to Jiraya . He then extends his right arm and a ball of chakra appeared in his right palm . He dashed forward and put it in a tree and drilled it with his rasengan . When he removed his hand a hole which is the size of rasengan is seen in its place .
Naruto used his 1000 shadow clones to master it quickly . And he want to keep it a secret . It is very useful for a quick kill .
" Well done Naruto you mastered it in a week . I am impressed . It took me months to master it ," Jiraya said to him . It is not easy to master rasengan that easily . Even Tsunade and others are impressed by his progress .
" You should give me some other jutsu as you promised before leaving for this mission . You are a Sanin so you should give me a jutsu which is known only by you but not by others ," Naruto said to Jiraya . And the toad Sanin is in deep thought on what jutsu he should give to Naruto .
" I can give you two jutsu as you mastered rasengan in a week . Here take it . If you doubt anything regarding it come and ask me ," Jiraya said and gave him two scroll . Naruto got 'needle jizo' and 'wild lion's mane technique' . It is jiraya's original jutsu which is not known by anyone other than him .
Naruto opened the scrolls and read it . After reading he fold it and kept it in his bag . Through bag he send it to his inventory .
" Let's go Naruto . Later we have to shift your belongings in my house ," Tsunade said to him calmly . Naruto gave a nod and started to walk behind her . Jiraya took his leave for his research as it is two days in a row which went without his peeping and he wanted to recharge himself .

Secret hideout of root in konoha .....
" Tsunade has returned to konoha . She brought her apprentice and another unknown lady with her . I don't know the relationship between them but they are very close and she looked like an uzumaki woman . Maybe she is a relative of tsunade ," Fu yamanaka said to Danzo . He was near gate area when he saw tsunade is entering with Naruto and Jiraya . He couldn't risk to listen the conversation between Sanin . So he watched from a distance .
" She might have agreed to become fifth hokage . I cannot present myself as a candidate for the hokage position . If I try it Hiruzen will target my age . Damn , I thought in the invasion he will die but he somehow survived . Even that coward damiyo agreed that my age is too much for a hokage candidate ," Danzo said to Fu . He is not happy that his name is not even considered for the hokage position .
Torune aburame enters to deliver another report to Danzo .
" Bad news Danzo sama . Tsunade the slug Sanin has returned and she is already approved for the hokage position by fire damiyo . She accepted the position and the official ceremony will be held in ten days ," Torune said to Danzo . He gave him the news which he was expecting after Tsunade returned to konoha .
" Send some root members to investigate what she did in her past years when she was not in konoha . Even if I found a little flaw I can stop her before she can become hokage . Otherwise I have to wait till akatsuki make a move against konoha ," Danzo said to them . He knows about Akatsuki after he stole some private information from Hiruzen which he got from Itachi and Jiraya . He played a huge role in their destruction when they were a small organization . But now there power terrifies him .
After hearing his orders Torune left to assign some missions to root members . While Fu stayed with Danzo to report about others matters .
" Danzo sama the kumogakure and iwagakure are planning to raise the bounty of our jinchuriki . Kumo is planning to send someone to capture him to know about our jinchuriki ," Fu told Danzo . Danzo was surprised by this information .
" This boy is a troublemaker but he is very clever too . Even by mistake he never revealed his jinchuriki identity . But how he managed to raise his bounty . His bounty is already very high for a chunin . Even if we compare his bounty with other chunin , he is in the top . But let's see what he can do about it . We don't want a weak jinchuriki anyway ," Danzo said to Fu . He is not worried about Naruto safety . He is worried only about the tail beast inside him .
" Mist village is going to elect a new mizukage very soon . But most people are in the favour of rebel leader Mei terumi . She is a woman with double kekkai genkai . She united the mist village once again . Now she is busy in eliminating the people who supported yagura to kill people who possess bloodline ," Fu said to Danzo . He actually came to deliver this message to him .
" Women are weak and couldn't handle the position of kage . What is happening in konoha . I don't care about mist village . They are stupid to eliminate those who are loyal to them because of their fear for bloodlines . Emotions make people blind . They should learn from us , we eliminated uchiha clan when they are going to rebel against us . Anyway it is good for us that mist is very weak right now . Assign some spy for mist village . It is our chance to fully infiltrate them from inside ," Danzo said to Fu . Even if Fu doesn't agree with some of his views but he will never question his decisions . Fu took his leave to follow his superiors orders .
'Even if this world is changing . I will never change my views . This peace will not last . I should recruit more members for root for future use . Hiruzen ,you bastard I will become hokage one day . You will see it one day with your own eyes ,' Danzo is cursing Hiruzen for disturbing his plan . From the days of their youth he is jealous of Hiruzen . He is waiting for the opportunity to take over the hokage position for a long time and once again he has to wait .
.................
The news of the return of slug Sanin has reached in every corner of konoha . Afterall she is one of the main reason for konoha's victory in second shinobi war . She is famous as one of the Sanin and for her world famous medical ninjutsu . Konoha has the best medical unit because of her .
Kurenai finished her team 8's training session . After a cruel session she took her students for a treat . While they were going they saw asuma is talking with genma . Who left after saying something to him . Asuma saw Kurenai and waved his hand towards her .
" Hai kurenai . How is your training session ? Are you also going to treat them today ? " Asuma said to her . He is happy to see her after the Itachi incident . Where they were totally outclassed by a younger shinobi .
" Hey Asuma . We are training consistently to improve ourselves . We never knew who will be our enemy next time . I am just giving them reward for their hard work ," Kurenai said to Asuma . She takes their training session seriously . Especially after Shikamaru and Naruto became chunin . Both of them are from another teams . In next chunin exam she wants to see one of her student as a chunin .
" We should eat together to discuss about our team . I mean our teams should eat together . What do you say Kurenai ? " Asuma said to her . He wants to spend some time with her . Last time Kisame and Itachi interrupted their lunch .
" Yeah sure , it will increase our teams information gathering among themselves ," Kurenai said to Asuma . She accepted his invitation . She followed Asuma with her students .
They took a big table for the lunch . Soon ino , chouji and Shikamaru entered and sat opposite to Hinata , shino and Kiba .
" You are right on time .We were about to order the food ," Asuma said to his team .
" Have you heard about lady tsunade's arrival . I even heard that she is the next candidate for the hokage position ," Ino said to others . She is very excited about this new gossip .
" It means Naruto kun returned from his A rank mission ," Hinata said to them . She has not seen naruto for a week .
" What !!! He already finished his A rank mission . What about you Shikamaru , Do you take A rank mission ? " Kiba said to them . He is curious about chunins if they can go for big missions everytime .
" Nah !!! I am not intertested in dangerous mission . It depends on the jonin leader who takes you on a big mission . If he thinks you are capable enough then you can go easily . Naruto is more than capable of doing this kind of mission . I am happy with D and C rank mission . It's less troublesome anyway ," Shikamaru said to Kiba . For him A rank is something which he would like to avoid for a period of time .
" Are you ignoring me Shikamaru ? I told something to you . Do you heard about lady Tsunade arrival ? " Ino said to Shikamaru . She is angry upon Shikamaru for ignoring her .
" Yeah I heard about it from my mother . She is in a good mood now . She is saying something about first female hokage . Do you know some thing about it Asuma sensei ? " Shikamaru said to them . He is curious about the current situation in the politics of konoha .
" Genma informed me about it . My old man is retiring from the hokage position . Lady tsunade has accepted the post for the betterment of konoha . After ten days you will see her as the fifth hokage ," Asuma said to them and confirmed the rumor about the first female hokage . Kurenai smiled after hearing it . Her idol is going to take the hokage title .
" It's first time a female is becoming a kage in the entire elemental nation's . There is a rumour that mist village is going to appoint their first female mizukage in few months . It looks like lady Tsunade is going to beat her for the title of first female kage in elemental nations ," Kurenai said to them . She has a big smile in her face .
" It is a very big event for us . First female kage from konohagakure . It sounds too good ," Ino said to them . Hinata nodded at her words .
" Asuma are you sad that your father is going to retire from the hokage position ," Kurenai said to asuma . Asuma smiled at her words .
" No I am not sad . He also retired earlier when fourth hokage took his position . He just filled the position before he can find a worthy successor . Lady Tsunade is more worthy than anyone . Because of her efforts we won second shinobi war . Most important thing is because of her every nation paid attention to medical team of their nation . Death rate has dropped rapidly because of her contribution in medical field . If she is not worthy then whom you will choose ," Asuma said to them . Even though Jiraya is also worthy in his eyes but he will tell it to Kurenai . It may ruin everything for him before he make any progress in their relationship .
They finished their food . Asuma and Kurenai paid for the bill together . Even though Asuma told her that he will pay for everyone but Kurenai can see the bill can hit on his pocket . So she paid half of the bill . After that they went separate way . Kurenai is excited to tell the new gossip about Tsunade to Anko .
