Chapter 1: Chapter 1
Somethings to note about this story. One, Minato and Kushina didn't have a portion of their chakra in the seal, so no meeting his parents that way.
Two, Naruto is the first host of Kurama. Mito had Kurama sealed in a cave beyond a fuck ton of uzumaki seals. When she passed she took over keeping control of them. So Naruto is the first host of Kurama who's actually super powerful here, like he wasn't, but still, no sharingan control bullshit.
Three, this is an AU world, so expect things to not be the same.
Enjoy.

Dragon, just Dragon, having long since forsaken his name in duty to his village, watched with a grin as his target of examination pranked the village by painting the hokage monument.
Really, Dragon was impressed. It's not everyday, or at all really, that someone managed to paint the hokage monument in broad daylight without anyone noticing till it was done. In bright orange clothing as well.
What was even more impressive, was the fact that they were evading multiple chunin, catching them in pranks, some multiple, and they chunin were trying to actually catch him and avoid the pranks.
Only stopping to be caught by choice.
Now here's the thing, said person was still an academy student who had failed the exam three times already.
Sixteen year old, Naruto Uzumaki, Jinchuriki of The Kyuubi no Yoko. Orphan child of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki.
Dragon wanted him, and if there was one thing that Dragon was, it was greedy. He would have him, one way or another after he graduated.
•~~~~•
"No."
Dragon rolled his eyes behind his mask, which also happened to have his symbol designating him as the anbu commander.
"Come on Hokage-sama! He'd be perfect for ANBU. He's got stealth down pat, imagine if he didn't wear orange and actually stealthly clothes!" Both hokage and ANBU commander shivered at the thought.
"No dragon! He's not even a genin, and I won't let him-" Dragon cut him off.
"No! Your thinking of him like a grandfather, think like the hokage. The benefits out way the negatives. Let him escape interaction with the civilians and be with those who won't discriminate against him. Think about how that could improve his mentality." Dragon stated seriously.
"No! I refuse to let him join. End of conversation, your dismissed!" Hiruzen ordered and Dragon snorted before leaving the office, he had some planning to do. He would have his newest recruit, one way or another.
•~~~~•
Dragon stood next to Hiruzen, both watching as his newest interest managed to learn the shadow clone technique, creating hundreds of him, if not a thousand clones, and using them all the pumble a traitor. Saving an ally in the process.
"Mine." Dragon stated as if it was a fact, and to the man, it was.
"No." Hiruzen said, though this time there was a hint of hesitation now. However their conversation was interrupted by the arrival of Iruka, who had been patched up by the arriving ANBU squad, and Naruto.
•~~~~•
Naruto Uzumaki didn't know just how to deal with everything, ok that was a lie. He was angry. Pissed. Depressed. Pleased. Confused.
Angry at what happened. Pissed at everything and almost everyone. Depressed over learning he had the nine tails sealed inside of him. Pleased to know why everyone hated him. Pleased to have become a ninja. Confused on how he should go about things now.
"Iruka-kun, please report on everything." The old man called out to Iruka-sensei, and Naruto listened as his sensei went on to explain everything.
"HI Hokage-sama. Using my sensor skills, I managed to track down Naruto and confronted him in the forest just outside of Konoha. Asking why he took the forbidden scroll, he seemed confused and talked about how Mizuki Tojou said it was a secret test to passing and becoming a genin." Iruka started and continued on explaining his encounter with Mizuki and the secret about the fox.
"Thank you Iruka-kun, please head to the hospital to ensure all your injuries are healed." Hiruzen stated and the chunin nodded with a bow and left with a smile at Naruto promising to get ramen.
"Am I a demon?" Naruto asked broken and the ANBU beside the desk, with a dragon mask, spoke.
"No. You are a human being who has a tailed beast sealed inside of you. Your kind are called Jinchuriki. Power of Human Sacrifice. You hold the beast back from attacking the village." The ANBU agent stated.
"Why did the fourth hokage seal the nine tails inside of me?" Naruto asked confused and angry. "Did my parents love me? Did they abandon me afterwards. Did they just give me to the fourth to seal the fox inside of me!?" Naruto asked not sure what to do now.
"Your parents died in the Kyuubi's attack on the village. Protecting you." Hiruzen stated and Naruto snarled.
"So you did know! You always said you didn't know them. Who were they? Who was my mom and dad!?" Naruto demanded angrily.
"I'm sorry I can't tel-"
"Kushina Uzumaki."
In that instance the hokage had the ANBU slammed against the wall choking them, while releasing a large amount of killing intent.
"Your mother, Kushina Uzumaki." The ANBU stuttered out gasping for air at the same time.
Naruto stared at the hokage with sad and broken eyes. The hokage dropped the ANBU who gasped in relief as they took a deep breath of air.
"Hey Uzumaki, I have an offer for you." The ANBU stated as they stood up rubbing their throat for a moment.
"I am Dragon, ANBU Commander, and I offer you to join my branch. Become a member of the ANBU, disappear for a few years from the village. I offer you acceptance, training and protection." Dragon stated grinning under his mask ignoring the growling of the hokage.
"No he-" "He is a proper shinobi of Konoha. A field promoted genin of Konohagakure, performed by Iruka Umino, proper chunin, approved by yourself. He is an offical member of the forces. He is allowed to join the ANBU if invited by myself or you Hiruzen." Dragon stated cutting off the hokage.
"I accept." Naruto said immediately.
"Good. I will pick you up tomorrow at noon from your apartment. Pack anything you wish to keep." Dragon stated and Naruto nodded.
"Yes Dragon-senpai. May I be excused Hokage-sama?" Naruto asked and the others in the office flinched, if Naruto gave you a nickname, he trusted and liked you, but if he took it back, oh you fucked up.
"Dismissed." Hiruzen stated with difficulty. The moment Naruto left the office, Hiruzen glared with fury at the ANBU agent.
"Out."
"You brought this upon yourself Hiruzen. You knew this would happen eventually and could have prevented it." Dragon stated, but suddenly a heavy pressure was in the room.
"OUT! GET OUT!" Hiruzen yelled and Dragon left swiftly. He actually feared for his life in that moment.
•~~~~•
Dragon took a deep breath as he arrived in his office and collapsed on the little cot he had in there.
Going against the hokage was treason and what he did was enough to warrant his death, he broke several s-class laws.
Yet, he grinned as he started filling out the paperwork for his newest member. He had a brand new agent, and he would become a fantastic member of his family.
He considered this a long time investment. Most ANBU left after a short few years, but some, like Tenzo and Kakashi, thrived in the ANBU, and Dragon knew that Naruto Uzumaki would thrive in the ANBU.
"Now, which assignment to give you?" Dragon asked himself as he walked towards a large cabinet in his office and opened it revealing a bunch of mask.
Reaching in he grabbed one.
"Yes, this will do perfectly, welcome to ANBU, agent-" Dragon was interrupted by a knock on his office door.
"Come in."
"You called for me sir?" A tiger masked ANBU agent asked.
"Yes Tiger, I have a new member for your team. I know you've been short since Agent Dolphin retired." Dragon stated as he held up a mask and showed the animal on it.
"He's someone I'm sure you know. Your new member is Naruto Uzumaki, Konoha's newest genin, by field promotion performed by Iruka Umino as Naruto Uzumaki stopped traitor chunin Mizuki Tojou who tricked Uzumaki into stealing the forbidden scroll." Dragon stated as he grabbed a folder off his desk.
"This is a updated file done by myself. It has relevant information and skills on Uzumaki. I expect him to be up to snuff by two months, at least chunin in all levels that matter." Dragon ordered as he handed the folder to Tiger and then shooed him out afterwards.
"Yes, things will get interesting soon." Dragon stated to himself with a hidden smile behind his mask.
•~~~~•
Naruto Uzumaki stared at the things around his apartment and started cleaning up. Using a couple shadow clones did the trick, if he wasn't so distracted by his thoughts maybe.
"Clothes, tools and ramen." Naruto thought to himself as he started packing all his things up, shoving them into the only backpack he had.
He didn't care much for anything else here.
With a groan he laid in his bed and fell asleep. Perhaps he should- his thoughts cut off as he fell into unconscious and the embrace of Tsukiyomi-no-Mikoto. The moonlight shining through his window onto him.
