Naruto, The Perfect Shinobi

Sorry I was a bit late to upload as I had exams this week. Hope you all enjoy this chapter.

In the front line camp, evening;

Inside a small private tent in the camp, we find a tired Minato writing a report before getting some sleep. Getting some sleep is always a luxury for shinobi on the front lines as they always face the danger of sudden attacks. As he was finalising the report, a sudden puff of smoke interrupted him revealing Katsuyu. Surprised by her appearance he asked: "Hello Katsuyu-Sama, what brings you here?"

She replied: " Hello Minato, I am here to tell you that Tsunade-sama wants you to meet her urgently"

That made Minato ask: "is everything all right? Is Naruto and Tsunade OK?"

Katsuyu replied: " Yeah, they are fine. Tsunade-sama just needs to discuss something important with you."

After Katsuyu delivered the massage, she disappeared in a puff of smoke leaving Minato thinking about what Tsunade needed to discuss with him. He sighed as he finished his report while muttering to himself: " looks like I am getting no sleep tonight." He then made a shadow clone to take his place and proceeded to leave in a yellow flash.

In the senju home in the fire capital;

Inside we find naruto ready scrolls about fuinjutsu and chakra chains which was written by his great-grandmother while his mother is watching him study with a small smile on her face. Both were interrupted my a yellow flash in the living room marking Minato's arrival.

Seeing his father's arrival, naruto let go of the scrolls and went to greet his father:" hey dad".

Minato smiled at his son and gave him a head pat while saying: " hey little man, are you being good?" Naruto nodded at him with a smile.

Minato the looked at Tsunade who was giving him a serious look promoting him to be serious too. She then proceeded to say: "we need to discuss something important about Naruto."

Minato looked at her then at naruto and then asked her: "should Naruto stay her and listen?"

Tsunade then said: " of course, this discussion is about about him. He is a big boy who can keep a secret."

Naruto's face brightened with a sunny smile and enthusiastically yelled:"yeah"

This brought a smile on both parents' faces but the atmosphere turned serious when Tsunade asked Minato: "Minato do you know your family lineage?"

The question surprised Minato who proceeded to ask:" why do you ask?"

Tsunade replied: "we need to know as it is very important?"

Minato thought for a bit before saying: "well, you know I was raised as an orphan, so I didn't know who my family is. But recently after I got promoted to a jonin the Hokage gave me a big scroll related to my family. He was given this scroll for safe keep after my parents have die. Turns out the Namikaze was a clan that was almost wiped out by the end of the first shinobi war leaving me as the sole known surviving Namikaze. That was a brief introduction to my history,I didn't dig more into my history as I was busy on the border and I kinda forgot."

Tsunade then said: " well you will need to look deeper into it as there is a big mystery about our son heritage from your family side."

This confused Minato who then said: " can you tell me what happened exactly?"

Tsunade sighed then said: "few month ago on my birthday, I discovered that naruto inherited my grandfather bloodline limit, the wood style,(this greatly surprised Minato as this was the first time hearing about this)but that not all, today I also discovered that he has two more bloodline limits one of them is chakra chains like my grandma and Kushina, while the other surprised me the most as I don't know where it originated from but I am one hundred percent sure it is from your family side."

Minato now feeling anxious and intrigued asked:" So what is Naruto's third bloodline that makes you this freaked out?"

Tsunade let out a heavy sigh and said:" you need to see it to believe it." She then turned to naruto who was sitting quietly beside them and said: "Naruto, honey show your father."

Minato now fully giving his son his attention, watched as his son closed his eyes then opened them again almost stopping the poor father's heart from their appearance. Gone his sons sapphire blue eyes, now replaced by two scarlet blood red which were glowing slightly with one tomoe in each eye. He knows these eyes very well. They are a bloodline limit, the eyes of the infamous Uchiha clan and the eyes of his recently deceased student Obito Uchiha. How can his son have those eyes and how can this be connected to him, an orphan kid who was raised in an orphanage with facial features that have no resemblance to the Uchiha.

He took a deep breath to calm his nerves and thought carefully. He is sure that Tsunade is somewhat right about Naruto may have inherited it from his family side, he just needed to check his own lineage as it is impossible for naruto to have inherited it from his mother's family side. Even though Senju and Uchiha are at peace now, there was still some hostility between them , they never had a Senju and an Uchiha marry each other. And everyone know Tsunade's family tree until the first hokage, and before that it is impossible for the two clans to come together as the were at each other's throats killing each other since their foundation.

Collecting his thoughts he said:" this is a heavy surprise." looking at his son eyes which is back to its usual sapphire blue.

Minato then looked at Tsunade and said seriously: " I will return to the village secretly and look into my family scrolls and see if there is anything that can shed some light on this. Also we need to keep this a secret. Naruto being the Senju heir already put a target on his back. If anyone knows about him having the bloodline of the Senju, Uzumaki and Uchiha it would be as if we are asking for our son's death."

Tsunade nodded and said: " you don't have to worry about that. I would never tell anybody, not even sensei. He only knows that I have a son."

Minato replied: "let's keep it that way." He then proceeded to stand up and said: " well if you excuse me. I have a mysterious family tree to discover." He Joked before disappearing in a yellow flash leaving the mother and son alone.

"You know mom, people will eventually know about me and my bloodlines." Naruto said in a calm and quiet tone surprising his mother.

"I know baby. It will happen someday. But until then we keep it a secret as long as possible. If people find out when you are old and strong enough they won't be able to do anything to you." Said Tsunade with a sad smile.

"Don't worry mom I will become the strongest ninja ever so that you wouldn't be afraid of ever losing me." Said Naruto with a confident smile to soften his mother's worries.

This made a smile appear on Tsunade's face who proceeded to hug her son who slowly fell asleep in his mother's embrace.

Time-skip; next morning;

The sun is starting to peek over the horizon signalling a new day. Although it is still very early we find a very energetic Naruto doing his intense morning training with his mother's supervision. That was followed by intense kenjutsu training that was interrupted by Minato's return.

The three of them proceeded to sit in the living room area around the table. Minato opened by saying: " well, what I found out is really surprising but it can explain what's our current situation."

"Well Minato, out with it already." Said Tsunade rather impatiently. Anything that is about her son and may affect him makes her very anxious and restless.

"It turned out that several decades before the formation of Konoha, the Namikaze is just a group of Uchihas whom couldn't unlock the Sharingan so they left the clan and formed the Namikaze, people from different other places joined them over time ." Said Minato surprising naruto and Tsunade.

"But if that is true then the Uchiha blood should have thinned out so much that it is impossible for any body to manifest the Sharingan." Said Tsunade

"I know that so I had to dig deeper into my own family. I found out that my grandfather isn't well documented in the scrolls. From what is written my grandmother described him as a handsome man with a raven black eyes and hair making me believe that he is an Uchiha. I really couldn't find any other sources as the Namikaze joined Konoha a couple of years before the first hokage died. My father was already born by then resembling my grandmother's features that are blond hair and blue eyes. So I think the Uchiha blood stayed dormant only appearing in naruto giving him the black tips in his hair and the Sharingan." Said Minato explaining all what he could find.

Tsunade stayed silent for sometime before sighing and saying: " well that can be our only logical explanation so lets go with it." She then look at Minato and said: "Thank you for your time and effort Minato. I just need another thing. I need you to meet sensei and bring something that will help in Naruto's training, you can also bring anything you want naruto to learn."

"You are welcome Tsunade. It was also quite fun and thrilling to find out about my origins. There will be no problem about me going to the village to get what you want, I need to restock on supplies anyway."said Minato who proceeded to stand up and disappear in yellow flash.

In Konoha;

After Minato went to the Hokage and brought what Tsunade wanted, he sealed it in a sealing scroll and went to his own home. He he did to restock on supplys and also had decided to give his son Naruto a copy his two most prized jutsu. The rasengan which he invited, and the flying thunder-god jutsu. The rasengan is an advanced A rank sealess shape and chakra manipulation jutsu that he got inspiration from tailed beasts bomb, the jutsu is still unfinished as he couldn't add chakra nature element to it yet. As for the flying thunder-god jutsu it is already Naruto's inheritance from his great-granduncle, Minato just improved it quite a bit.

As Minato reached his home, he found it currently empty which was convenient to him as right now he can tell his girlfriend kushina where he went and where he is going. He is still not ready to tell her that he had a son with her big sister figure.

After getting the supplys he needed he headed to his library to get a copy of the two jutsus. After getting the copy's and putting them in the sealing scrolls. He was almost scared to death when a pair of hands wrapped around his lower chest from behind which caused him to instinctively use his flying thunder-god jutsu to get away.

Kushina Uzumaki was returning to her boyfriend's house from the market after shopping. She was putting her groceries in the kitchen when she saw her boyfriend's usually sealed library open. She quietly reached the library door and looked inside only to see the back of her boyfriend Minato taking some scrolls from the shelfs and sealing it in a sealing scroll. She was surprised to see him there as he was scheduled to return in a few weeks. It made her happy he came earlier. But suddenly her mischievous side kicked in and she wanted to give him a little scare. She approached him quietly from behind and quickly hugged him from behind to surprised him. But before she could say anything the two of the proceeded to vanish from the library in a yellow flash.

The fire capital; Senju home garden;

The couple suddenly appeared in the middle of the garden, though both of them don't know where they are as Minato instinctively flashed to a place he usually feels safe in.

Minato who still had someone holding him from the behind looked back to see who it is. Seeing the familer red hair he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:"Kushina?!"

Kushina realised might have went a little too far as she scared Minato to the point he needed to flash away, she looked at Minato a bit awkward and embarrassed and said: "hehe, hey Minato."

Minato finally could take a calming breath for his racing heart and turned around taking Kushina into his chest hugging her. After calming down a bit he proceeded to say: " you frightened me almost to death Kushina, tone it down please."

Kushina chuckled a bit awkwardly while saying: "yeah, sorry about that, I didn't think you would be surprised to this degree." She then pull her head from Minato's and looked to her sides at the unfamiliar surroundings and asked: " by the way Minato, where did you take us?"

Hearing that, Minato around him abit while thinking that he must have used the flying thunder-god jutsu in his fright, his eyes and posture stiffened when he looked behind Kushina.

Kushina feeling his stiffened look and posture looked behind her only to see her big sister figure Tsunade sitting on the wooden ledge of the home holding a cup of tea while having a deadpan look at her face while looking at them. She could even hear Tsunade mutter something about knowing that this day would come.

Kushina then had to ask confused: "big sister Tsunade, what are you doing here? What is this place?" Looking around the garden and at the house.

Tsunade sighed and said: " this is the senju home in the fire capital. I currently live here."

Before Kushina could ask a follow-up question, she heard a child's voice from behind Minato say:" dad?" Making Minato who she was still hugging stiffen up even more and started sweating.

She looked behind Minato only to be surprised by seeing a beautiful cute child with red hair. The child seems to be about 7 years old from what she can see. What made her pause a bit was the child bright sapphire blue eyes which she thinks it is beautiful. She looked around again only to find there are no other adult males except the guy currently in her arms.

Before she could think even more, she heard the child say: "dad, who is the pretty big sister with the beautiful red hair that you came with?" Making Kushina blush about the complement, but hearing the child calling Minato dad didn't sit will with her and she needed to confirm something.

She left Minato's embrace who was still standing stiff and sweating. Kushina then approached the child before bending down slightly to be closer to the child and then said: "Hello little buddy, you really mean what you said?"

Naruto replied with a smile: "yeah, you have really beautiful red hair big sister. Just like mine."

Kushina smiled sweetly at him and proceeded to hug him while saying: "you are such a cute child, what is your name?"

Naruto looked at his mother for confirmation. His stunted mother just gave him a nodded while deep in thought. Tsunade now believe that her son is a sweet taker, that with his looks ladies will always listen to him. She thought Kushina was going to blow up a fuse but look at her hugging naruto.

Returning to Kushina and Naruto. After receiving confirmation from his mom he said to Kushina: " nice to meet you big sister. My name is Naruto Senju. I am five years old. What about you?"

Kushina is extremely surprised by that but kept a smile on her face and said: " well little buddy. I am Kushina Uzumaki nice to meet you. Can you tell me who is your mom?" Kushina already know who is his mom from his name and facial features but she just need to make sure.

Naruto just pointed to Tsunade and said: " That is my mom."

Kushina nodded expecting that but she then asked the question that she was dreading: " and who is your dad naruto?"

Naruto just pointed at the still stiff Minato and said: " he is my dad."

Hearing that Kushina became quiet for a little while before saying to naruto: "Naruto buddy, can you leave me and your Mom and dad alone for a while? We need to take about something important." She was restraining herself from lashing out on Minato and Tsunade in front of Naruto.

Naruto nodded and then went inside the house leaving his parents with a fuming red head in the garden.

After naruto left kushina's hair started to rise and split to nine sections symbolising how angry and irritated she is. She then turned around to look at a sweating Minato and an awkward Tsunade and said menacingly: "Explain".

Tsunade know that she had promised to explain the situation if kushina found out, called out to Kushina to come and sit down so she can explain.

Two hours later;

" I still can't believe you slept and had a kid with my boyfriend Tsunade" said Kushina. She wasn't angry anymore but still upset about the whole ordeal. Tsunade have already told her her the whole story making her calm down.

" It just happened Kushina and it haven't happened again, I even quit heavy drinking ever since. Also at that time he wasn't your boyfriend as you already broke up with him at that time. I would have never been able to forgive myself if it happened while you two are still together." Said Tsunade making Kushina huff in irritation as she know that is true. But she looked at the bright side. At least Minato didn't sleep with some stranger and now she has a nephew/little brother, who shares her vibrant red hair even if he have some black tips, to spoil.

"About Naruto, can I come visit and spend time with him?" Kushina asked Tsunade making her smile.

"Of course you are more than welcome to visit at anytime. You can also teach him fuinjutsu and how to use chakra chains. He has them like you and grandmother." Said Tsunade surprising Kushina who the nodded enthusiastically happy to teach naruto about the Uzumaki heritage.

"So how was it like to be pregnant and have your own child?" Asked Kushina wanting to know about Tsunade experience. Tsunade with a smile started to tell kushina about her life with her baby boy.

Minato beside them exhaled a sigh of relief that this ordeal ended on a good note. He was sure that if he was the one to explain to Kushina he would have to stay in the hospital for a couple of day. He thanks his lucky starts that his girlfriend and the mother of his child are still on a good note and stayed close. He just wants the whole war to end so that he could finally spend time with his son and his girlfriend.

Hope you all enjoyed the chapter.
