Hiruzen looked at Leo with complicated emotions.

"If there is nothing else, please leave."

Leo wasn't polite to him and showed him to the door.

Hiruzen sighed and left. Before leaving he said a few words, "I can at least try to understand your good intentions, but there are those who won't.."

To his words Leo grinned, "As long as they make the first move, I will kill them. That can be counted as self defense, right?"

Hiruzen shook his head and left.

...

The next day.

Naruto groggily woke up. The moment he opened his eyes he was stunned. This wasn't his room.

Suddenly he remembered what had happened yesterday. He quickly got off the bed and ran out.

Leo was on the couch drinking tea and Shinobu was in the kitchen preparing breakfast when he ran out.

"Good morning, Naruto. Wash your face and teeth first. I put a clean towel and a new toothbrush inside."

Shinobu pointed to the bathroom while keeping an eye on the food she was making.

Naruto stared blankly at them for a moment before letting out a wide grin. He skipped to the bathroom and quickly washed his face and rinsed his mouth.

Naruto turned red from embarrassment. Shinobu just laughed it off and pinched his nose lovingly.

Leo smiled all this time. He was really happy to see the kid smiling so heartily.

After a satisfying breakfast Shinobu and Leo grabbed Naruto and went to a nearby clothing store.

What Naruto wore was old and worn. Both of the chose clothes they thought suited him and had him try it on. In the end they bought everything he tried.

Along the way many looked at them curiously. Especially at Leo and Shinobu, they were the perfect partners.

But what they didn't understand was that, why would these two ȧssociate themselves with the demon fox?

Though Naruto was a kid he was very perceptive towards others emotions. He understood what everyone was thinking and shrunk behind Leo.

The latter saw him hiding in his shadow and said, "Naruto, never let anyone get you down. You don't owe anyone anything. Lift you head high and live with pride."

As he spoke he slightly pushed Naruto to walk beside him.

Though he still shrunk back Naruto did show some courage.

As they were walking through the streets Leo stopped at a corner and said.

"I just saw something I needed. I'll be right back."

Shinobu nodded, "Make sure you pay them generously."

Leo grinned and walked away.

After turning a corner the smile on his face disappeared. His body flashed and disappeared from sight.

Just after his disappearance several figures emerged from the surroundings. They surveyed where Leo had disappeared and found nothing.

"Are you looking for me?"

Suddenly the men heard Leo's voice. All of them immediately got on guard.

"Your master must be Danzo, this guy doesn't learn."

The men watched as Leo's figure emerge out of thin air.

"Attack."

The men immediately moved.

Leo shook his head, "Don't you guys have any intel on me?"

As he spoke his "Sword Realm" emerged and covered the attacking men.

In an instant nearly a dozen men were slashed to pieces. Only one man, the leader, remained.

Leo flashed in front of him and said, "Go and tell your master that I have limited patience. If I ever see one more of you trailing behind my wife and Naruto, I'll make visit to your wretched base."

As he spoke up to hear Leo flicked his finger.

The leader thought he had escaped when a mind shocking pain ȧssaulted his mind.

Ahhh!!!

A heart wrenching scream escaped from his mouth. The noise got the attention of the crowd outside the alley.

"Ah! Murder!"

Someone yelled out when they saw the bloody scene inside.

Soon the area was cordoned off. The village guards quickly informed Hiruzen about the murder.

He could only sigh when he heard the report. This strange individual is mysterious and makes him feel dread, as such he couldn't use force to deal with him.

"Clean up the mess and ask Danzo to come meet me."

Hiruzen spoke softly while going through the report. A man wearing a mask emerged from the shadows and disappeared in a flash.

...

There was this kid who was training alone in the training ground. He was doing weight training.

Leo couldn't sense the faintest amount of Chakra in him. However the kid still persisted through sheer will.

'Interesting kid.'

He watches for a while before leaving. Soon he joined Naruto and Shinobu. They were almost finished with their shopping and was waiting for him.

Once they reached home Shinobu sorted out the stuff she bought and placed everything she bought for Naruto inside a room.

"From today onwards this will be your room, you can use it for as long as you want."

Naruto widened his eyes and asked, "Really?"

Shinobu smiled, "Really."

Naruto jumped up in excitement and quickly went off to organize his room.

Suddenly Shinobu asked something, "What's the next plan?"

Leo stopped laughing. He thought for a moment before saying, "We can't leave him alone like this."

Shinobu nodded, "My thoughts exactly."

Leo raised his palm. The air twisted for a split second before the Dragon - Tiger medallion emerged. At the center of it was the Hogyoku which was constantly releasing wisps of spiritual energy.

"After we reached this world the recharging speed has slowed down. It will take time more time than we had calculated. So let's take our time and...

Just as he was speaking his expression changes abruptly. He looked at the medallion and focused on the Hogyoku embedded to it with a hint of shock.

Crack...

The Hogyoku that looked fine till now was starting to show cracks on it's glossy body!
