The Legend of the Kyubi

*********************************     

Two days had passed since Kurama and Temari returned from Suna, and at this time they were meeting with the other members of the Uzumaki clan in the central room of the mansion.     

"Okay, it's time for us to start" - said Kurama seriously as he looked around at all the people gathered - "I want you to give me an overview of everything that has happened lately"     

"Okay, let's see..." - said Kushina as she pulled out a large stack of documents - "Let's start with the reconstruction of Uzu... Let's see... the construction of the houses of our new inhabitants, they are almost all complete... the commercial posts are also about to be completed..."     

"Perfect, with this we can start with phase 1 of Uzu's commercial program" - answered Kurama while he was thinking - "Ok, let's move on to the second part of the meeting"     

"The construction of the fishing boats is in its final phase, too" - answered Mei while taking the floor - "When these are ready, we can start the trade with Kiri"     

"Perfect, how is the agricultural field?" - asked Kurama while looking at Tsunade, who had decided to take this sector because it was the closest to the things that the Senju clan specialized in.     

"Let's see... thanks to the fertile soil of Uzushiogakure no Sato, as well as the increase in vitality you gave to it, our crops are growing healthy and strong" - responded Tsunade calmly while looking at her husband - "According to my estimates, the crops could be harvested in about two or three months"     

"Ok, that will make things much easier for us" - answered Kurama while a huge smile appeared on his face - "Being self-sufficient is something that every village should be able to do, after all, we cannot continue to depend on food from other villages? Can't we?"     

The girls nodded when they heard this because it was common sense.     

"Well, now let's move on to the livestock area... How are our animals doing?" - Kurama asked seriously because this was an even more serious issue.     

"Nothing out of the ordinary," replied Tsume as she looked at the redhead, "I have divided my clan into two groups, the civilian group will consist of the guardians of our livestock, to whom we will give the weaker Ninken to serve as protectors"     

"I think it's a good plan," Kurama nodded as he looked at the former leader of the Inuzuka clan - "Anything else I need to know?     

"Let's see... we need a greater variety of species so that we can herd" - answered Tsume as she pondered - "With Uzu's climate, we can domesticate many animals, ranging from cows to buffalo"     

"Buffalo?" - Kushina asked curiously.     

"I hear their milk is delicious," answered Tsume as she shrugged.     

Those present rolled their eyes at the woman as they continued the meeting.

"Strange... sensei should be here by now..." - murmured Inari as he frowned.     

"I'm sorry to tell you that Kurama-san gave you the day off because he had some important business" - responded Tsunami while looking at his son - "I guess we could use this time to do some quality family time"     

"Hmm... once in a while it's not bad to spend time with your family... more when you're working all day..." - said Tazuna while looking at his grandson - "You should do the same, Inari"     

". . ." - Inari was silent for a few seconds before nodding - "Ok"

"I guess that would be all for now," said Kurama as he let out a bored sigh.     

"You betcha," murmured Kushina, who was practically melting in her chair.     

"This is why I hate everything about bureaucracy," Anko said angrily, "You don't know how many times I almost fell asleep because of how boring it all was"     

"Why did you come in then if you knew it was boring?" - asked Mei as she looked at the purple-haired woman.     

"Because it's part of my job as a leader of the discipline squad," Anko replied regretfully. "The worst thing is that there's no one to make trouble, which makes my job twice as boring"     

"You may leave," answered Kurama as he looked at the women leave, leaving the redheaded man sitting alone with a tired expression - "I swear to God this should not be happening to me... this is why I refused to be Hokage of Konoha when the old Hiruzen asked me to"     

". . ." - Yugao saw all this with surprise because it was the first time she had seen the redhead so tired.     

"Oh, right... you were here, Yugao-san" - said Kurama as he looked at the purple-haired woman - "Do you need anything?"     

"No, I'm just surprised at how organized the whole meeting was, I could even say it was much less chaotic than Konoha's meetings" - answered Yugao while shaking her head - "I guess it's because all the members of the group were members of the Uzumaki clan"     

". . ." - Kurama only nodded wearily as he let out a weary sigh - "Okay, I think I'll go rest for a while..."     

"You don't mind me investigating the mansion, do you?" - asked Yugao as she looked at the redhead.     

"Not in the least" - answered Kurama while he shook his head - "Just keep this in mind, there will be rooms that you cannot enter because they need a special permit, and they are blocked by a powerful barrier Fuinjutsu, these rooms have special items from the Uzumaki clan, as well as ancient documents that cannot be observed by people outside the clan"     

"I understand, it's not like I planned to steal the clan's information either" - answered Yugao as she left.     

Kurama only watched as the woman retreated quietly as he began to think about the future of Uzushiogakure no Sato - "I guess we're going to have to start with Phase 1 of the village security upgrade".     

With a quick hand movement, Kurama summoned a clone to call Kushina back.     

"What did you call me for, Kuro-chan? - asked Kushina as she looked at her husband - "I guess it must be something serious for you to call me with how tired you are"     

"In fact" - replied Kurama while massaging his temple - "I want you to start implementing the safety protocol for Uzushiogakure no Sato"     

"I see..." - responded Kushina with a serious look - "Ok, I'll start right away then, I just hope the payment is worth it when I'm done with my work"     

"Ok I'll give you whatever you want" - answered Kurama while a huge smile appeared on Kushina's face - "I see you've already decided what you're going to ask for"     

"Oh, believe me I've made up my mind," replied Kushina with a sexy smile on her face.     

"What do you plan to do first?" - asked Kurama as he looked at the sexy redhead.     

"Let's see... the village is already being protected by a prototype triple barrier, so all that remains is to create the permanent barrier, although this will take quite a while," said Kushina as she frowned. "After that I have to create two more barriers, a reinforcement barrier and an external barrier, finally I have to create three more barriers, one in the interior of Uzushio that will have the function of absorbing the Energy of the world to be able to maintain itself, another to reinforce the main barrier, and finally there would be the Chakra Absorption Barrier, which we will use to reduce the damage to the techniques thrown to the barriers".     

"I see... it sounds like a martyrdom" - answered Kurama when he heard everything he had to do.     

"And you have no idea, that's just phase one," grunted Kushina annoyed, though she quickly relaxed.     

"?" - Kurama tilted his head in confusion.     

"What happens in phase two is that you will use Mokuton to create natural barriers," Kushina replied calmly. "These same trees can be used as catalysts for the detection barrier around Uzushio.     

"I see, you will use the same barrier that covers Konoha" - said Kurama when he understood the situation.     

"Exactly, although we will obviously use the superior version" - responded Kushina while a smile appeared on her face - " It may be much more difficult to create, but its quality is indisputable"     

"Okay, I'll leave it in your hands" - said Kurama as he saw Kushina leave. When he noticed how his wife had retired, he settled down in his chair and closed his eyes because he honestly had a little headache after all the trouble he had to listen to - "A little rest does no harm to anyone..."     

"Tousan!" - exclaimed Naruto, and in the process, making Kurama open his eyes wide.     

"Huh? Do you need something, my child?" - asked Kurama with a smile at the sight of his first-born son.     

"I wanted to ask if you wanted to come with us to play in the village park," said Naruto as he looked at his father with excitement.     

"Ok..." - said Kurama with a smile. Even though he was a little tired, nothing could beat the feeling of being with his children - "Go, call your brothers, so we can leave as soon as possible"     

"Okay, I'll call them!" - exclaimed Naruto with excitement as he ran out - "I'm sure they'll be happy when they hear this!
