21 Chapter 21

The Hokage Tower, half an hour later, Izuna's office, Konohagakure

Naruto came to Izuna's office and knocked. Izuna sleepily answered, "Come in."

Naruto slowly opened the door and went in to see Izuna almost sleeping and sleep-stamping all the paper work. Naruto looked surprised at best. Izuna looked up and said, "Give me the clothes." He got up and came to Naruto, took the clothes and changed them almost instantly. The clothes were very similar to what he was wearing before. He then looked serious and was no longer sleepy. He went from extremely sleepy to extremely angry. He told Naruto, "Why did you unsheathe the sword? Did I not tell you to not unsheathe it unless it was completely necessary?"

Naruto raised his hands up as though he was surrendering and said, "I was just curious. Hehe. You should be able to forgive a curious boy right?"

Izuna frowned and said, "NO. You should not open a forbidden weapon just out of curiosity. There is a reason why the swords are called what they are called. I think you now know why they are called that." Naruto shook his head up and down vigorously and said, "Yes. I know why." Izuna then said, "You are not going to utter a single word about these swords to anyone else."

Izuna went back to his desk and started to take care of the paperwork. Naruto left the Hokage tower to go back to the Uchiha clan compound. He was going to practice sealing now.

Meanwhile, on the streets of Konoha

Menma was walking along the streets of Konoha and making his way to Ichiraku Ramen. He was extremely annoyed by someone following him. He turned around to see who it was. As soon as he turned around he saw Konohamaru. He angrily went to where he was hiding and pulled him out, punched him on the head and said, "You aren't fooling anyone here. It's obvious that you are following me. Give the act up."

Konohamaru made a smug look on his face and told, "No wonder you caught me. You are the only person fit to teach me. I will let you be my boss. Will you please teach me the Sexy jutsu using which you defeated the old man?"

Konohamaru asked again, "Please… Please….."

Menma was surprised he agreed to it. It wasn't like he had something important to do anyway. He looked at Konohamaru and said, "I shall teach you the jutsu but can you learn?"

Konohamaru nodded. Menma said, "In that case, first of all, this jutsu is a henge. You henge into a sexy lady. So, the most important part is to be able to visualize a proper image and to use it for the henge."

A few hours later, in a park, Konohagakure

Konohamaru had mastered the sexy jutsu after a long time. Menma had gotten into a lot of trouble while teaching Konohamaru. They were now resting. Menma bought a few cans of cool drinks so that they could drink it to quench their thirst.

Menma asked him, "By the way, why do go after your grandfather all the time?"

Konohamaru answered, "My grandfather named me Konohamaru after the ancient name of the village- Konoha. Though everyone knows my name, no one calls me by it. When someone is talking about me, or calling me, I am just the honorable grandson of the Hokage to them. Nobody sees me as me. That is why I am going after the Hokage title."

Menma could somewhat sympathize with Konohamaru. Everyone except those close to him only saw him as the Kyubi and nothing else. In their eyes, he was just a monster fox.

Menma said, "Baka! Who would acknowledge a brat like you? The Hokage title is not something a little brat can take for himself. If it were child's play, then everyone would be Hokage. If you want to be Hokage so badly, then…"

Konohamaru was infuriating right now. He said in rage, "THEN WHAT?!"

Menma smirked and said, "You've got to beat me first."

The Hokage Tower, The Sandaime's office

The Sandaime Hiruzen was worried about Konohamaru. That attempt had been the twentieth on that day. He was worried that Konohamaru would try to learn the sexy jutsu from Menma Just then Izuna came into his office. He looked more emotionless than ever. He said, "Sandaime sama, I sense Danzo in the fire Nation as well as Orochimaru. The two of them have entered the Fire Nation at the same time. It seems very fishy to me. I think the two of them might be working together. Though I cannot pinpoint Danzo, I can pinpoint Orochimaru. He is a few hundred miles to the north of here."

The Sandaime was surprised. He got up from his desk instantly and said, "In that case, we will have to apprehend him right now."

Izuna said, "No, Sandaime sama. If he is really working with Danzo, Orochimaru's apprehension will only alert him will give him more time to escape from us. So I think that it is better for us to leave him be for now until we get solid proof upon his current standing and transactions with Danzo. If we get proof that his appearance in the Fire Nation is not related to Danzo, we can apprehend him instantly. Else we shall have to wait for their plans to unfold so that we can get a stronghold on Danzo."

The Sandaime thought for a while and said, "You are right, but if we let Orochimaru run loose, who knows what he might do. I say we send an ANBU squad to spy on him, at least for minimum safety."

Izuna sighed. He said, "You really think Orochimaru and Danzo won't notice ANBU?"

The Sandaime said, "Then what do you suggest that we should do now?"

Izuna said, "The best thing we can do now is to increase security around the village and do our best to make sure that Orochimaru doesn't enter the village."

The Sandaime said, "Seems like a tangible option. We can try it out."

A park in Konohagakure

Menma had just told Konohamaru that he'd have to beat him first for the Hokage title. Just then, Ebisu, Konohamaru's tutor arrived on the scene. He saw Menma and angrily thought, "Demon Kid" about Menma and stared at Menma angrily. Menma was thinking why everyone always saw with only those eyes. They either stared at him like that or acted as if he didn't even exist.

Ebisu shushined down and looked at Konohamaru. He said, "Young Master, We need to go home now."

Konohamaru angrily screamed, "I AM GOING TO BEAT THAT OLD GEEZER AND GET THE HOKAGE TITLE! SO DON'T GET IN MY WAY!"

Ebisu got up and calmly said, "A Hokage must be well thought in every aspect of being a shinobi. To become Hokage, you must first master one thousand skills... Huh" He was stopped by Konohamaru who said, "Henge!"

Ebisu saw in surprise as Konohamaru transformed into a sexy girl. Ebisu's jaw dropped to the ground. He screamed as he did so. Konohamaru screamed in surprise, "WHAT?! IT DIDN'T WORK?"

Ebisu screamed as his cheek became red out of lust, "WH... WH... WHAT A PERVERTED SKILL! I AM A GENTLEMAN. THIS WON'T WORK ON ME!"

Ebisu started pulling Konohamaru. He said, "YOUNG MASTER, IF YOU HANG AROUND TRASH LIKE HIM, YOU WILL BECOME STUPID YOURSELF. JUST DO WHAT I SAY! I AM YOUR SHORTCUT TO BECOMING HOKAGE! NOW YOU MUST GO HOE!"

Konohamaru said, "Let me go now!"

Menma said, "Kage-Bunshin no Jutsu!" Ebisu was surrounded by Menma Shadow Clones.

Ebisu smirked and said, "Hehehe. You really think you can get me with that. Hahahahahahahaha. I am not like that weak Mizuki. I am an Elite Tutor. You will never get me with that."

Menma laughed and said, "What did you just say? Hahahaha. Look at this and tell me the same thing. Henge!"

Instantly, all of them did the sexy jutsu. Ebisu was now surrounded by sexy girls. His nose bled so much that he was ejected from that place and he flew about ten meters and fell head first. The Sandaime who was seeing this thought, "He combined the Kage Bunshin and Sexy jutsu. What a stupid Jutsu! If Jiraiya had been in the place of Ebisu he'd probably have been in heaven right now. Perhaps the same can be said about Izuna. Even I would have fallen for it."

Meanwhile, Menma transformed back to himself and all of his shadow clones dispelled. He said, "I call this one Harem Jutsu."

Konohamaru exclaimed, "Whoa BOSS! You defeated my tutor. Now all I want is for people to know me by my own name-" He was interrupted by Menma who hit him on the head. Menma told him, "This is the HOKAGE title we are talking about. It is the title of the strongest shinobi of the village. If you want a title like the Hokage, there won't be any shortcuts whatsoever. So you'd better prepare yourself."

Konohamaru said, "Huh, stop lecturing me like you know everything. I am not going to let you be my boss now. FROM NOW ON, WE ARE RIVALS!"

Menma said, "Sorry, but starting tomorrow, I am going to be a full fledged shinobi and I will be going on missions very often and I shall soon become Hokage. But one day, we shall fight for the title of Hokage and I'll be looking forward to it, Konohamaru."

Konohamaru was very happy that someone had finally acknowledged him for who he was and his face lit up in glory.
