What if Minato didn't use the Dead Demon Consuming Seal? What if nether Kushina or Minato died. What if Naruto was an older brother, an ANBU, the jinchuuriki for Kurama but also forgotten when his little sister Akia was born? Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN NARUTO!!!!!!!!!!!! I own Akia and the story line. I got the idea from fanfics here on Wattpad so this is not an original idea but an original story line so have with this.

Naruto has been meeting up with Sasori of the Akatsuki he has been persuaded to leave the village hidden in the leaves. He becomes a well known SS-rank rouge ninja known as Deaths Shadow. No one suspects it to be Naruto Uzumaki because after getting a curse mark from Orochimaru he wears a mask (like Hatake) because when the curse mark acts up it will cover up the lower left side of his face. (The curse mark is on the left side of his chest) what will the rookie 9 do when he returns to the village, or of or when they find out he's on an Akatsuki mission? I DONT OWN NARUTO!!!!!!
