Naruto's assumption of Nazumi was correct.

She had written a letter to the Haruno nobles and told them everything.

She informed them of Sakura no longer being Sasuke's concubine, her engagement to nobleman Sasori, the baby, and everything else.

To say Mebuki, Sakura's mother was angered would be an understatement.

She had gone through hours of labor to push the girl out, spent countless nights putting the restless child to bed, and made sure Sakura was smart and well educated only to have the mistake throw everything back at her.

How dare she not continue to be the King's concubine and marry a mere noble.

Kizashi, Sakura's father, had the same thoughts running through his mind.

Anna and Serena, Sakura's older sisters, however, were overjoyed. Their little sister has yet again made a fool of herself.

Mebuki and Kizashi walked toward Sakura. Both had their shoulders squared, their chests out, their heads high, and walked in sync.

Barlow, Serena's husband, and Victor, Anna's husband, each had their wives in their arms as they walked towards Sakura as well.

Sakura wasn't invited to her sister's weddings. She was sent pictures and reminded once again that she was not a part of the family.

"Sakura," Mebuki said.

Her voice was deep and very dark.

"Mother," Sakura said as she looked away. Still holding Sarada in her arms.

Sasori had his arm around his fiance and held her close.

Sasuke just watched the entire thing with an emotionless face.

"I have heard of your recent activities and I must say. I'm not pleased." Mebuki said.

Naruto took Sasuke's hand in his. If he didn't he would have punched the blonde-haired woman in front of him.

"First you become a concubine to the King, embarrassing me and your father. Then you don't even birth a child. You fail to take the throne from a dying Queen. And then I find out that you are no longer a concubine, you are with child and you are to wed a noble man. Further embarrassing me and your father." Mebuki lectured.

"Was that a threat?" Naruto asked as he cut the blonde-haired woman off.

"What?" Mebuki asked as she turned towards Naruto.

"Fail to take the throne from an already dying Queen. That's what you said was it not?" Naruto asked.

"Why yes, of course, but who are you to question me?" Mebuki asked offended.

"Must be a lowly servant mother," Anna said.

"Must be seeing as he doesn't look as if he's seen the light of day as he's as pale as a ghost. What an ugly little ghost. The baby in his arms must also be a bastard." Serena said as she laughed.

Everyone cringed at the sound.

"Oh my, I must apologize then. I really must drop the habit of not wearing my crown. However, let me formally introduce myself. My name is Naruto Uchiha. Mother of six and Wife to Sasuke Uchiha. Or more formally known as the Queen of Konohagakure." Naruto said as he kindly smiled at them.

However, his smile hid a dark and ominous warning.

One that neither of the Harunos nor their spouse's picked up on.

Mebuki went to call bullshit only to have a shadow looming over her.

She looked up and saw a man with raven black hair, dead soulless black eyes, and a pale complexion.
