It had barely been a year since Uzushio came out if the shadows and everything was blooming, their military power had increased and though their numbers dwindled during the war, the number of ninjas they had now could easily take on other smaller villages like Suna and still leave a reasonable amount of soilders to protect their village, there economy was unmatched because during the rebuilding of the village they had cleared out some forests in the village for farming purposes as of now, they had little items they needed to import and those items were not really needed, their academy could be described as the best because the Uzukage had it in mind to prevent what happened in the past from happening again so for the first year of the academy, the students will have chakra manipulating seals on them that will make their chakra nature neutral so that they can use all techniques, they had body training seals on them for speed and strength and the students were given a weapon of their choice while they were put in stress inducing situations for wisdom.

The village still had no allies yet because when they were destroyed the first time their treaty contracts had become void and this was what the Uzukage had planned to tackle next. He sent messengers to their former allies and most of them had returned and the Uzukage had been surprised that all of them had been more than willing to renew the bonds.

They met up in Uzushio to sign the treaties but the one village that wasn't present was Konoha because no messenger was sent there yet.

"Sir, the teams that escorted the convoys have returned and they have given their mission reports" a huge man with a scar across his face said.

"Good, is there anything else?" the Uzukage who was a lean man worn down with age asked his second in command.

"Yes sir, I was just wondering why we haven't contacted Konoha yet" he replied.

"I wish to go to Konoha myself, it seems one of my relatives resides there and I cannot trust anybody to bring him back Katsuro" the kage said "Which reminds me send a messenger bird to alert the Hokage of my visit" he finished with a smile. The second in command nodded and left the office. The Uzukage was a man with fading red hair that was of shoulder length and green eyes that seemed to look straight into your soul and his lips were always curved up in a frown which gave him the look of a survivor who was used to the death of people close to him, he had a scar that went from his cheeks to his Adam's apple which was a gift he got from the war and it surprised people how he survived a cut that deep, what they didn't know was that he didn't.

Location: Hokage's office Konoha
Time: 20:53 p.m

"Hokage-sama!!" a flak jacket wearing brown-haired lady ran into the Hokage's office shouting.

"What is it?" the wrinkle faced man said in his chair knowing there was no cause for Alarm.

"Sir, you have a letter" she said handing the letter she was holding to "the professor" a name that the Sandaime's reputation had gotten him.

He collected the letter and gasped when he saw than it was from the Uzukage.

"Hokage-dono,

I would like to put your doubts to rest on the rumors about the rise of Uzushiogakure, yes we have rebuilt the village from the ashes. The only reason we didn't inform you sooner or ask for your help in rebuilding was for security.

Uzushio is thriving and we have renewed our bonds with other villages except yours.

I'd like to tell you that I will be coming to Konoha to seal our bonds and to take custody of my grandson Uzumaki Naruto, I aware that you gave his mother refuge in your village and I am eternally grateful to you.

We should arrive in your village in three days time but if you are against the treaty you can send a messenger bird to me and I will send a group to collect my grandson.

Uzukage
Itsuki Uzumaki.

"It is true, Uzushio has risen! Get me the inferno squad and the storm squad!" the Hokage announced ecstatically.

"Hai, Hokage sama" the secretary said before getting out of the room and five minutes later two teams of eight members each arrived in front of the Hokage.

"Dog, Bird I have a mission for you" the Hokage said addressing the leaders of the two ANBU squads in front of him "It is an S rank escort mission from the land of whirlpools" he finished handing them the mission scrolls he had just finished writing.

"But Hokage sama who could be that important for an escort to be S rank usually the highest is A rank?" a man with silver gravity defying hair who had a dog mask asked.

The Hokage smiled and nodded before he replied "Yes I know that A is the highest an escort mission can go but once you check your mission scrolls you will understand why it is S. You leave in the morning, dismissed" the ninjas nodded and disappeared.

Location: Root ANBU base, Konoha.

"Danzo sama, we have bad news" one of three root operatives said as they appeared in front of of Hiruzen Sarutobi's
rival, Danzo Shimura.

"What is it?" the heavily bandaged man asked in a cold tone.

"The rumors about Uzushiogakure are true and the Uzukage is heading here in a day's time to renew Uzushio's peace treaty with Konoha " another blank masked operative said .

"Oh, They don't know to stay down do they? Alright maybe now their Uzukage will succumb to my demand" Danzo said with an evil smirk.

"What are our orders sir?" the third one asked.

"391, keep your eyes on the jinchuriki, 566 you are to follow the escort and you will keep an eye on the escort, 400 keep spying on the Hokage with a shadow clone, if you are caught I don't want the information you have gathered to go to waste" the three nodded and shunshin'd put of the room. "Soon my root will be unstoppable with the powers of the Uzumaki clan" Danzo mused to himself before chuckling slightly.
