Tsunade coughed into her hand, getting the attention of the council. "Namikaze-san is right," Tsunade said as she used a more respectful suffix then she usually would when they were in a more private setting. "However you do know that you will need to wed at least four women, before your eighteenth birthday?"
Naruto nodded at Tsunade as he gave a smirk, one that made the civilian and elders on the council feel unease. "Do not fret Hokage-Sama, I am well aware of my obligations in this department," Naruto replied. "Fortunately I have already found four such woman who I have met throughout the years and fallen in love with; they understand my obligations and have accepted that. So none of you need to worry about me not finding anyone to help me restore my clan."
Any last vestige of hope that the civilian council had to gain the boys powers was lost with that statement. They had assumed that despite being a Namikaze he would still not be able to find anyone to marry, or more like hoped he would not find anyone. That way when he turned eighteen they could arrange several marriage for him, and he would not be able to get out of them. Now all of that was a moot point.
"If I may ask Namikaze-san," Danzo said as he stood up, there should still be at least one way he could salvage this. If he could get find out who the boy was marrying and somehow get them under his thumb, he could use them to get the young man within his grasp. Then he would not only have his weapon, but also the blond's children as his weapons. "Who exactly are you planning to marry?"
Naruto gave Danzo a cold smile, "I am sorry Danzo-san, however you should know that I cannot tell you yet. It is well known that my father had made many enemies, which have only compounded onto my own. With Iwa and Akatsuki on the loose, it would not be wise for news of my wives to get out right now. I'm sure you understand," the blond finished with a condescending smile.
Danzo's one eye narrowed at the boy, he knew that Naruto was going to become a problem the moment he had found out about his heritage. Unfortunately Danzo knew that right now there was nothing they could do, the boy was too powerful to take out at the moment. However Danzo was patient, he would wait until the time was right, then he would strike.
However not all of the people in this room were smart enough to keep their mouths shut, as one of the council members proved when he stood up and glared at Naruto. "So what! You don't trust us!" shouted the member of the civilian council, a man who went by the name of Denbe Shojuko. Said man pointed at Naruto, "I see how it is! You think that just because you're in some clan that your better than everyone else! You think that you can do whatever you want!" Denbe had always been known for his insatiable greed, even among the council as well as his hatred of Naruto. It was actually because of this man that Naruto had been unable to buy even the bare necessities in Konoha, such as food and clothing. Since Denbe owned more than half of the shops in Konoha, and had gotten Naruto blacklisted by the others through political loopholes and threats. Soon the man's rant began to degrade even more then what it already was, "the only reason you even have that seat is because of your father! It doesn't matter anyway, you don't deserve that seat! Your nothing more than a demon! An illegitimate child from some whore that the Yondaime fucked, and got pregnant! I bet you that…"
The man's words died in his throat as the air around the room dropped nearly 60 degrees in temperature, the people in the room actually began to clatter their teeth together as the cold seeped in. accompanying this was an absolutely dreadful feeling, it was not like an intense blast of Killing intent. No it was far more subtle than that, too many it felt as if the Shinnigami himself had entered the room and death was touching them. The source of this feeling was none other than Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze, who was looking at the now freezing Denbe with a deceptively calm face.
"Tell me councilor-san, do you have any family?" Naruto asked in a conversational tone, as if merely talking about the weather.
Denbe and everyone else shivered at the deceptively casual tone, but he steeled himself as he would not let the demon upstage him. "Why are you going to kill them?" Denbe asked with a sneer.
Naruto gave the man a cold smile, "not at all, I was merely curious."
The councilor scoffed, "no I don't have a family, you should know since you're the one who killed them!"
