Title: The coming of the 3rd Ninja War...

….

While I am contemplating different business ideas I can sense Tsunade walking towards the clan compound. Hachi had arrived earlier but he went with Misune (my mother) to do some shopping. She truly adores Hachi… he is like the normal kid (as normal as a ninja kid can get) that she can finally spoil with gifts and all that. Even though she doesn't know that Hachi is literally her grandson, she does act towards him like she is his grandmother or… more like an aunt… 

I know that Orochimaru and Tsunade met… I also know that Orochimaru has noticed that I use mosquitos to spy on people. Well it was bound to get out sooner or later anyway, and the summon lands do occasionally communicate amongst each other and me taking over the Blood Swamp is a pretty big deal to them. 

So I had the waitresses spy on them… Tsunade noticed the waitress… and that was also a distraction since I actually had a spying seal under their table. That is one of the restaurants that I own… though to know that you would have to go through a special case of files in the civilians councils business room… which is a room full of copies leases for restaurants and other businesses… I know… the management in Konoha sucks… I am definitely changing that when I become the Hokage... I am really good at this...

….

Anyway Tsunade comes inside the house, and then comes to the living room. Sadly TV's haven't been invented yet at this time… which kind of sucks. I remember from the Anime that during Naruto's generation, movies and TVs were already a thing. I kinda don't know how to create a TV… I never googled it as far as I can remember. If I had even a single memory of it I would have gone through my memories and reread the memory and become the inventor of the TV… that would have made me so much money, a monopoly like that would be priceless, though I already have way more money than I might need… but there is never too much money. 

I bear the door open and Tsunade looks at me and with a complicated look on her face she says. "As you predicted, Orochimaru did come to me, to ask questions about you…"

I could see her astonishment at how I was able to predict what Orochimaru would do next. Obviously I predicted that he would ask Tsunade, after all as her former teammate, Orochimaru trusts Tsunade quite a lot. After all he hasn't gone rogue ninja yet.

But I just smiled at her, as I added more fuel to the fire. "Yeah… he isn't as cunning as he thinks he is."

Tsunade just sighs at that and said in an exhausted tone. "Anyway, Hachi told me that he will be attempting an early graduation."

God damn it… that kid… and I know Tsunade just dances around the problem like this… why can't she just get to the point and say that she wants you to convince Hachi to not do that. 

"Then if he gets an early graduation he will also get an early death. Tell him that and I am pretty sure he would understand." I replied casually.

Tsunade just frowned at that and got a little annoyed. "That would discourage him from a ninja career."

I shrugged. "That is good then, he would live longer if he did that."

"But…" Tsunade tries to say something, but she can see the logic to my words. It's true, it doesn't even matter if Hachi becomes a ninja or not. I mean sure people would judge him… but people who have the time to judge others aren't really worth even taking advice from. Also why would someone even care what people think of him… unless it has an advantage towards his goals. For example I acted all nice and good when I was younger because I was weak, and it benefited me. Now that I have power (politically and physically), why should I waste time thinking what other people think of me. 

I mean Hiruzen probably isn't that fond of me, and Tsunade too might not like me that much right now since I am too dominant on everything I do. But they still don't have a choice but to put up with me.

Anyway… Tsunade is saying useless things again. If Hachi wants to graduate early, let him do it… it doesn't matter if he dies or not… after all, death in this world isn't something permanent. I will just revive him when I get certain things in place. What is there to be worried about… I already have a bunch of cells from Hachi to be able to revive him with Edo Tensei.

-Three Months Later-

-General POV-

All of the Elite Jounin were assembled on the Hokage Tower… they were all inside a room with a map of the Elemental Nations in the table in the middle of the room. The Hokage was looking at all of the members present. Then he said. "Orochimaru, Tsunade, Minato, Jiraiya, Yami and Fugaku. You are all the pillars of Konoha. I need every one of you to go and lead the troops to guard the borders of each of the nations."

Hiruzen mentioned all of the current S Rank ninja in the village (except) himself. The other jounin who were here weren't offended, after all they knew it was the truth, the Hyuga were a little miffed about an Uchiha being called but not a Hyuga, but they also knew that they didn't have any exceptionally strong members of the Hyuga clan.

"War is expected to erupt soon, and I don't want any of our borders unguarded. Today I have gathered you all here to decide which border each of you will be guarding." Explained Hiruzen with a grave expression on his face.

Yami is the first to speak immediately, as soon as the Hokage finishes his speech. Yami decided to say….

A/N: Yami like always, way to controlling and three steps ahead of his enemies.
