Rimuru Tempest: the ninja slime.

chapter 1: another masked Man. friend or foe.

The week before Kushina was due
to give birth to her son Naruto a man named Rimuru Tempest arrived seeking trade negotiations with the Hokage.

At first glance, Minato was skeptical about the man because he wore a mask and was asked to remove it but declined.

The Hokage's Anbu dropped down from the ceiling swords drawn at his back and throat threatening to end his life. A simple pulse of his magical energy and all the anbu were out cold on the floor.

Rimuru then said.

"I'm sorry for the hostilities to your bodyguards but I don't take kindly to idle threats if your people draw their weapons they best be prepared to use them. The people you see with me are my bodyguards.

This lovely woman is Shion and the man with the calm attitude is Benimaru. I have other powerful people at my disposal.

Rest assured I don't want a war between us. I'd like to avoid any conflicts if possible lord 4th Hokage. But don't be fooled by either of their appearances or mine. They are probably 2 of the strongest people besides myself in the entire Jura Tempest Federation.

We outnumber your forces by more than 1000 to 1. Our resources are vastly advanced beyond your capabilities.
And our allies are just as powerful.

I heard your wife is pregnant.
My congratulations to you.
But I've also heard she is the host of a powerful fox spirit capable of leveling entire villages and continents. Is that true???.

And if so, how does she keep it from getting loose and running rampant???. What measures have you been putting in place should the containment fail or be disrupted???.

Are you even aware that you are putting your people in danger by allowing such a beast to remain within your village walls don't you care for your people's safety???.

And what if you die fighting the beast???. How will you and your wife reseal it and what would you have for a strong enough vessel to contain it???."

And Minato said.

"It seems rumors spread quickly about my wife's pregnancy. For your information, my wife is from a powerful clan known as the Uzumaki clan. Their unique chakra makes them perfect for containing the 9-tailed fox as it's jinchuriki. A jinchuriki is the power of human sacrifice. When one becomes a jinchuriki of any of the 9 tailed beasts they face many hardships in life.

I've made several preparations to prevent the problem of the 9-tailed fox from escaping from the seal that binds it to my wife. My skills in the art of seals are of the highest level obtainable Rimuru Sama. My wife's bloodline abilities manifest chains specifically meant for sealing and binding tailed beasts like the 9-tailed fox."

Benimaru then said.

"It would be wise of you to hear our master's offer before you turn us away.
You might just regret not accepting our help with your little rat problem if you don't. Someone on your council wishes you dead and wants to use your family as leverage if you don't step down from your position of power Lord Hokage.

Whoever you choose to be the fox spirit's next vessel will surely have attempts made on their lives to be recruited and brainwashed to overthrow you."

Minato then leaned back in his chair and said.

"How do you know this???. What evidence do you possess to prove such accusations valid? Show me and you will have my undivided attention to negotiate with your country."

Rimuru then grabbed one of the anbu masks and said.

"Well for starters. Tell me why the masks are unmarked on your bodyguards. Unless they aren't your bodyguards.
