Rebirth Of The Namikaze

Chapter 8

Recap-
"It's no problem Jiraiya-sensei." Naruto said. "So what was the mission?" The blond asked.

3 Days Later-
Jiraiya and Naruto walked into a bar as they were speaking to each other. "There's no way she's here gaki." Jiraiya said.

"Hold on. Jiraiya-sensei. I was right. That massive chakra signature over there, look!" The blond boy exclaimed. "Jiraiya!?!" Tsunade exclaimed surprised. "Tsunade!?!" Jiraiya exclaimed.

"What are you doing here?" Tsunade asked. "We're here to bring you back to the leaf Tsunade-sama." Naruto said sitting down. As he did, the necklace around Tsunade's neck glowed brightly, seeming to be attracted to him.

"That's weird." The raven haired girl said.

"I'm not coming back to the village. After all it's taken from me." Tsunade said as Naruto looked at her.

"But we need a Hokage. And you're the best fit." Naruto said. "Why would I go and accept that! Accepting to become the Hokage is asking for your murder! All these past Hokage's are fools for accepting the job." Tsunade said as Naruto narrowed her eyes at her.

'Tsunade. You're so lucky Naruto's more like Minato than Kushina. I am too.' Thought Jiraiya while internally crying happy anime tears.

"You think you have a place to talk? You've been travelling away wallowing in grief while the past Hokage's have actually done productive things for the village. The last notable thing you did was fight in the Second Shinobi World War, a battle you didn't even win. You're lucky to be in the position where you are asked to become Hokage. If it were up to me, I'd mark you as a nukenin, no matter how valuable to Konoha you are and can be." Naruto said as everyone widened their eyes.

"Who do you think you are you snot-nosed brat?!" Tsunade exclaimed. "A better Hokage you will ever be." Naruto said as Tsunade looked at him. "You wanna bet on it brat?" Tsunade asked as the raven haired girl and Jiraiya just watched on.

'Let's go Naruto.' Thought Jiraiya. "Tsunade-sama. You're betting with a kid. He's not even a teenager yet he's still 12." The raven haired girl said. "Calm down Shizune. This will be quick." Tsunade said to the girl now known as Shizune.

"What's the bet?" Asked Naruto, not taking any chances. "A spar. No ninjutsu. Just taijutsu. I'll even make it easy for you. I'll only use my pointer finger. If I win, you guys leave me and go back to the village without me. If you win, I'll come back to the village with you guys and be the Hokage. I'll even add in this necklace." Tsunade said showing Naruto the necklace.

'She doesn't know who I am. So she's bound to underestimate me. Bold to only use your finger. But. She is probably enhancing the strength with chakra, I can exploit that to my benefit.' Thought Naruto while thinking about the chances of beating her. To others, it looked like he zoned out.

"Is he okay?" Tsunade asked Jiraiya. "He's an excellent strategist. He's thinking about possible outcomes to accepting this bet probably." Jiraiya said as Tsunade looked at the boy.

'Just who is this kid?' Tsunade thought. "I accept." Naruto said finally. "Let's take it outside gaki." Tsunade said before walking outside with the rest. "Just taijutsu. You know the rules. Come at me with all you got brat." Tsunade said as Naruto nodded.

Jiraiya was refereeing the match. "3...2....1..Hajime!" Jiraiya exclaimed. Naruto immediately dashed towards Tsunade with a smirk, one that Jiraiya knew all too well.

"I thought you said the kid was a strategist, shouldn't he know that diving in head first is idiotic." Shizune said. "He's got a plan. That was probably what he was strategising while he zoned out in the bar.
