"You are stupid if you think this is safe." Danzo roared.
"I don't care. I am the Hokage and I make the decisions. Close the door before you move out." Hiruzen said implying that he didn't want to talk anymore and he needed to get out. Danzo puffed for a minute before leaving the office while banging the door closed. Hiruzen just continued smoking and just closed his eyes.
Danzo after walking out of the office was soon joined two more elderly. The advisors of Konoha.
"Hiruzen isn't thinking straight with the new genius we have at Konoha. A genius is only good if he is useful." The man said as he walked shoulder to shoulder with Danzo.
"We need to get rid of him." The woman said. "This guy didn't even attend the Ninja academy. We can take them down easily."
"You think I haven't tried. We can't touch him. He is too powerful and maybe more powerful than me and Hiruzen." The two looked at Danzo with big eyes. They knew how powerful both of them were. Both had been personally trained under the 2nd Hokage and though Hiruzen was more powerful of the two, that didn't mean Danzo was weak. At least not at this point.
"You are joking. Aren't you?" the man said while looking at Danzo as if he was joking.
"They were able to make a jinchuriki and the tailed beast vanish forever." Danzo said. After the drama with Chomei, Danzo sent Roots to the Land of Waterfall and from what he was able to gather was that the land of Waterfall had lost their jinchuriki in that bout against Aoto and his friends.
Of course, it was him who had hired those people but he didn't actually wanted a jinchuriki to go after them. But the battlefield and his spying on their village made him realize how terrifying Aoto was.
The two elderly duo was dumbstruck. They didn't expect someone who had no ninja experience could be that powerful. They actually were in the mind of portraying Aoto as some kind of spy and denouncing him, but Danzo just shook his head as Hiruzen would never agree to this.
If they wanted to do it, they would have to plant evidence or suffer the wrath of Hiruzen. They had been friends but it didn't mean he would overlook facts just for the sake of friendship. In addition, Danzo could also tell that Aoto cared about Konoha.
So he could only leave Aoto at the moment and make something up that would put Naruto under their control.

----------------------------------------
The next day.
One of the Anbu delivered letters and proof of adoption of Naruto. By that time everyone of them was here, and Shikuro even came with his son Torune. Torune got his hints and approached Naruto hoping to make friendship and Naruto was happy that at least someone of his age had approached him like a normal being and not bully him with words.
After signing the papers, he said to the Anbu.
"Let Hokage-sama know that I will pass on the ancestral home of Naruto once he is big enough." The Anbu nodded. He didn't know what Aoto meant by it as very few people knew who Naruto's father was but Aoto was sure that Hiruzen would understand what he meant. Meanwhile, Shikuro and Corazon took Naruto to his home for him to pack.
Naruto instantly had a smile when he saw Corazon and thanked him for standing up. Corazon and Naruto bonded quite well as they brought his old things back and moved it to Aoto's home. Everyone seemed to be happy.
"System can you make a special contract for Naruto?"
[
What kind of contract would you wish to establish?
]
"A equal contract where he will be paid just like others when he works, no time constraints and paid by the hour, even after turning 18. But I want the contract to bind Kuraam too and make sure he never spills the beans. That guy has the greatest hatred for humans." Aoto said. "Oh! I didn't ask, if we establish a contract than it will bind Kurama too right?"
[
Yes, if the contract is signed by Naruto Uzumaki, his sealed beast will also be under contract now and forever until the host decides otherwise.
]
"Good, make the contract." Aoto said and in the next moment, a paper came floating by to him. In each upgrade he was allowed to have one person as his employee, so this time he thought of Naruto.
Of course, he wouldn't allow for Naruto to work at this age and only after 18 if he thinks so, he could help him and he would be paid handsomely. He was using the contract mostly because he didn't trust Kurama.
The same way he didn't trust Chomei. Though Chomei was allowed to study, it wasn't allowed to go out of the house. But Naruto would interact and the contract was best way to bind their tongue and wouldn't let them talk.
After Naruto, Shikuro, Torune and Corazon came back with some huge boxes, they moved them to Aoto's home and told all of them to sit and it was time for the 'talk'.
"Dad, is it finally the time?" Torune seemed ecstatic when Aoto asked for them to sit. Torune already knew that his father practiced techniques taught to him by Aoto and one day he would also have to learn. Of course, like his father he was already taught the techniques of the Aburame clan, and especially the poisonous bugs were being fed already in order for them to grow with him and have a symbiotic relationship but according to his dad, these techniques were nothing in front of the ones Aoto had taught him.
Torune had only seen once his father performing magic and as kids go, he was mesmerized and wanted to know more. He had seen his father take care of the entire household with small butterflies flying around and keeping the things in order using that. Since than Torune wanted to learn the ways but his dad told him to wait.
And so he did.
