“Koushin! You are back!” Tsunade and all the council looked at me in dread. They looked around me to see if Naruto was back too but sadly he was not. Shit, this will come back to bite me in the ass.
“Why did you do that?” She then asked.
“I wanted to have a summon of my own instead of settling with any from the village. I already told you this, Hokage-sama.” I answered honestly.
“Yeah, and I thought you would do it when you were at least Chunin level.” Tsunade looked pissed.
“With all due respect, Fifth-sama, we all know I am at Chunin level.” I humbly stated. Everyone in the room had disturbed looks but they couldn’t refute.
“Fine!” Tsunade slapped the table. “What about Naruto?”
“Well, he learned what I wanted to do, and wanted to try it himself as well.” I shrugged.
“How can you?” She shouted in rage. “You know who he is!”
“I know for sure he is Uzumaki Naruto, my brother!” I looked at her coldly. “I think that was what you told the village when you first took the hat. But in your time under that hat, I see that you start to morph into your old Sensei and his best friend.”
“How dare you!” Inuzuka Tsume shouted in anger. “Remember who you are talking to.”
“I am talking to a person with a muddled head,” I stated a matter of factly. She looked furious but the lost look on Tsunade’s face showed me that my words were effective. “Uzumaki Naruto is not a weapon or tool that you can use on a whim. He is not your prisoner, nor is he the demon that destroyed this village. Uzumaki Naruto is the hero of this village, the container, and the only thing standing between you all and the Demon Fox.
Despite being just a newborn, he was sealed with the demon and kept it away from all of you. He will continue to do so in the future. If any of you mistake the bright young hero for the demon he is keeping, I shall punish you with my own two hands.
If any of you dare to scoff at him because of his identity as Jinchuriki, I swear on the name of the God of Shinobi that I will cripple all of your members. And I mean all!”
These were the exact words Tsunade said after she took the hat. She forced the village to apologize and kneel in front of Naruto’s house to repent. She made sure that no one would treat Naruto as nothing but himself.
When I finished speaking, Tsunade’s pupils dilated to the limit and looked towards me.
“You are right.” She then muttered.
“Hokage-Sama, don’t be naive!” Inuzuka Alpha shouted.
“Shut up!” Tsunade fumed. “Naruto is a person of his own. He is free to do anything he deems is right. If he decides to reverse summon to find his destined pack, it is his right to do so!”
“As you say, Hokage-Sama.” Dog Woman answered, wronged, as she gazed at the ground.
“You returned quite quickly, Koushin.” Tsunade then turned her attention to me. “How was your journey?”
“There is some internal strife going on in the realm I was summoned to. But the pack I first met was eager to sign the contract with me. In return, I will help them to end the internal war.” I honestly answered.
“It is acceptable. How is their power?” She asked.
“Oh, they are perfect for my taste.” I grinned as I looked at her. She copied mine, and her lips curled upwards.
“Meeting ended. Kakashi, stay back, rest dismissed!” She sent the rest of the council away as he looked at me.
“Can you summon it here?” She asked. Genin Chakra was limited, so in her opinion, anything I could summon was at best still could fit in the room.
“It is better to do that outside. My summons are… kinda unique.” I chuckled. She nodded as we moved towards Training Ground 7.
“Well, show us.” Kakashi looked excited.
“Sure, here goes nothing.”
“Summon Jutsu!” I placed my palm to the ground and in the next second, floating rocks started to form a humanoid figure without limbs. The rocks were still revolving around its main body while lightning was cracking on the body. Storm clouds like smoke were covering its body.
The atronach took half of my Chakra, but it was acceptable. After all, this baby could fire lightning and fight melee.
“What is this, a golem?” Tsunade asked with great interest.
“It is an Atronach.”
“Atronach?” Kakashi rolled the word in his mouth. “Weird name.”
“It is,” I smirked. “Want to test it, Sensei?”
“Sure, let’s test how strong this summons of yours is.” He too grinned.
“Stormy, attack my Sensei. Show him what you can do.”
“ROAR!” It shouted in reply. In the next second, a bolt of lightning left its hands? and attacked Kakashi.
Kakashi’s pupil dilated as he dodged. He hastily opened his Sharingan as he kept his distance. I walked Tsunade’s side and watched how Kakashi would battle against an atronach.
“Are they alive?” Tsunade asked in academic interest.
“Sort of,” I muttered. “They are sentient, but not organic.”
“Strange.”
“Yup.”
Kakashi used various evading Jutsu to dodge Stormy’s attacks. But whenever he used Kawarimi, Stormy would lock onto him in the next second. Kakashi was baffled. He couldn’t get rid of this guy. Even when he moved underground, Stormy would blast the ground with lightning or its fists.
But Kakashi never attacked back. He was always in defense to see the attack power of the summon. And after ten minutes, the summon turned into smoke and vanished. Kakashi walked out of the trees in shock as he looked towards me.
“Koushin, this summon of yours is… powerful!”
“Thank you, Sensei!” I laughed. “I was lucky.”
“I doubt it is luck,” Tsunade said as she looked towards the Hokage Tower. “I wonder what Naruto will find.”

“Naruto-dono, we are pleased to inform you that…” Jutengu looked at the excited blonde.
“Yes!?” Naruto asked in boiling tension.
“That you have…” Jutengu once again stopped dramatically.
“Tell me already you long nose bastard!” Naruto exclaimed in anger.
“Wow, so uncalled for.” Jutengu looked away with a not-cute pout.
“Stop that! You are not a little girl, it doesn’t look cute.” Naruto started.
“Whatever!” Jutengu now looked offended. “You passed the test, happy?”
“Hell yeah, I am!” Naruto jumped in the air. “I told you I can do it, believe it!”
“Yeah, yeah. Now come, The Great Elder will let you sign the contract.”
It has been almost a month since Naruto arrived in this strange land. On his first day, Jutengu took him to The Great Elder, which in a literal sense was Great, to take the test. The Great Elder, also known as Chief Tengu, had a red monkey-like face with a long nose. Its two wings were black in color and it was at least 30 meters tall, at least taller than the statue outside.
Its name was Konoha-tengu, quite to blond’s surprise, and it was much more mischievous than the blonde himself. When he first stood in front of the giant red-skinned monster, he was shivering with fear and excitement, but in the next second, a bucket full of water fell on top of him because of the trigger he set off by stepping on the plate.
Sadly, the bucket was in Tengu size, and full of it was enough to crush Naruto and almost drown him. Luckily, he had a tough body and he survived. A few days passed with healing. Tengu had unique and powerful healing arts supported with herbs. With the help of Kyuubi’s Chakra, Naruto was on his feet in a few days.
After that, the test began. The Chief wanted him to prank at least half of the Tengu population to be accepted as their contractor. Naruto had a smile showing he was up to no good. The test had to be time-consuming, but with the help of Shadow Clone, Naruto pranked the village brilliantly. After all, Tengu had a closed community and didn’t know much about the outside world. Especially after their first contractor died, their way of the outside world closed until then.
After only a few days, Naruto passed the test and started to train under Tengu. All Tengu knew how to use a sword, and it was a must for their contractor. Naruto first taught how to wield the ancient weapon, and then learned the katas. Shadow Clone was helpless against physical training, as it had no help when it came to muscle memory, but they were still great partners in sparring.
Naruto spent the rest of the month learning their sword art and was quite proficient in the first level. The second level was using moves with the wind element to increase the sharpness of the attacks. Naruto was delighted to learn this as his main element was the wind. Sadly, he had to go back to the village for the exams, so he couldn’t stay to learn more.
But he learned the ins and outs of the second and third level, he could practice on his own.
When Jutengu and Naruto entered the Chief’s hall, Naruto looked around with his eyes wide open. He dodged the plates he deemed suspicious and tried to step on Jutengu’s footsteps. After a tiring small walk, they both stood in front of Konohatengu.
“Good job, little prankster. You dodged almost 50 traps.” Old Tengu smiled.
“I counted 51,” Naruto smirked.
“Ah, right. But you didn’t dodge the last one.” Smirked the chief. In the next second, a plate full of the cake was plastered on the blonde's face.
“Fuck you!” Naruto shouted in anger. “How?”
“Hohoho! There is much to learn when it comes to pranking. It was wise to follow little Jutengu’s footsteps, but I can tweak the seals so they would only react to your chakra.” Red-skinned Tengu looked quite amused, a great contrast to bemused blonde.
“Seals can do that?” Naruto asked in disbelief.
“Oh they can do more than that, but it is not the time. You are late, so let’s sign the contract and send you back.” With it, Naruto signed his name with his blood. The scroll had only two names now. One was ancient. It read Uzumaki Hina.
“The first Uzumaki was a woman?” Naruto asked in disbelief.
“All life born from mothers.” The Chief answered seriously, unlike his usual self.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean it that way. It is just… If she was summoned here, she must be a lot like me and you, so she must be a prankster as well, right?” Naruto asked.
“She was quite a handful.” Old Tengu gazed afar in reminiscence.
“Hehe, I must be carrying her blood then.” Naruto proudly answered.
“You sure do, little rotten.” Old Tengu smirked as well. “That reminded me… Bring the sword.”
From inside, an old Tengu with an avian face carried a blood-red sword ceremoniously on its two palms. It knelt in front of the Chief and passed it to Naruto.
“This was her sword. She left it for the next summoner. Coincidentally, you are her kin. Sorrow Cutter is a unique sword with seals no one in the world nowadays can figure out and have the wisdom of its own. You should explore it and use it well.”
“Thank you, Chief! I promise I will honor it.” Naruto took it and tied it to his back. He was quite short to carry it on his waist. After saying his goodbyes, he vanished with smoke.
