Hello everyone, this is my answer to brown phantom's challenge 'the hidden bloodline' and the idea is this. What if Naruto's grandfather on his mother's side was a Hyūga who didn't have the Byakugan and the stress of Mizuki's revelations awakened the Byakugan in Naruto. How will Konoha react to him and how will the Hyūga clan treat him. The Hyūga clan elders in this story are much nicer due to Hiashi arranging accidents for the ones that forced his brother's sacrifice to Kumo. Due to Naruto's lack of control he won't be learning the Juken for several chapters as he slowly learns to get better at chakra control. Also he won't be placed on Team 7 as Kakashi can't teach him and the Sharingan and Byakugan don't mix well. This is also a double update with chapter two of 'A New Point of View'. 'Hinata: the Kyūbi's Keeper' chapter two and 'Naruto's Reaper Bloodline' chapter 6 will be coming soon.


Chapter 1: Truth's and Politics

Naruto ran through the forest breathing hard. He couldn't believe it, he had finally found out why the villagers hated him 'You are the Nine-Tailed fox!' 'You killed Iruka's parents!' Mizuki's words ran through his mind. He stopped when he heard Iruka speaking

"He isn't the Nine-Tailed fox, Mizuki-teme he is its container. You were partially right, when I first met him I thought he was the fox and hated him, but as I taught him I got to know the real Naruto. And I know there is no way in hell that he is the Nine-Tailed fox!" Iruka shouted

Mizuki snorts "That fox has got to you to, doesn't matter I'll kill you and then him anyway"

"NO" Naruto shouts and jumps forwards, suddenly everything changes he can see everything so clearly, he can see Iruka behind him even though he is facing towards Mizuki "Harm Iruka-sensei and I'll give it back a thousand-fold!"

Mizuki's face was covered in shock then he shook it off and shouted "How will you do that you damn fox!"

Naruto makes a cross hand-seal "Like this, Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu" suddenly the forest is filled with Naruto's perched on every possible surface. Iruka smiles at seeing Naruto perform a difficult jutsu so effortlessly.

Mizuki looks around in horror; Naruto smirks "Well if you're not going to attack I might as well go ahead and attack instead!"

Mizuki screams in agony as several thousand shadow clones beat the living daylights out of him and leave him curled up like a pretzel, you'd think he was dead if not for the fact he was moaning in pain.

Naruto dismisses the clones and almost collapses from the overwhelming memories of what every clone saw. He hears Iruka say "Naruto close your eyes"

Naruto does so but he can still see but suddenly he can't then he feels something being tied around his forehead.

"Naruto you can open your eyes now" Iruka says

Naruto opens his eyes and Iruka nearly faints. Instead of his normal cerulean blue eyes he has pale white eyes with a blue tint to it like the Hyūga. Iruka looks at Naruto and says "Naruto, we have to go visit the Hokage, there is something strange about your eyes."

Naruto looks worried but follows Iruka to the Hokage's office.

Hokage's Office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi also known as the "Professor" has gotten used to the shocks that come with being Hokage and can honestly say he hasn't been surprised in years. Or rather he used to be able to say that instead he is shocked at seeing Naruto standing there with the Byakugan clearly visible.

Hiruzen was trying to figure all this out when it clicked in his head, 40 years ago a Main Branch Family member of the Hyūga's was born without the Byakugan and was exiled from the clan. Haru Hyūga his name was, he moved to Uzugakure and married into the Uzumaki family. Hiruzen would bet his entire Icha-Icha collection that he was Naruto's grandfather. But why did the Byakugan not awaken until now? Then it clicked for him again, the stress of what Mizuki did combined with his latent potential must of awakened the Byakugan, more terrifying was that Naruto reported that he could see all around him and that he either hadn't noticed or didn't have the Blind spot that all Hyūgas possess. He also marveled at the fact that Naruto could effortlessly activate and deactivate the Byakugan with just a thought.

Hiruzen watched as Naruto slept on the couch in his office as he waited for Hiashi to show up having summoned the Clan Leader ten minutes ago.

As if brought by his thought Hiashi walked through the door.

Hiashi bowed and asked "Hokage-sama may I ask why I have been summoned"

Hiruzen nodded and said "Earlier Tonight as you know the Forbidden Scroll was stolen and subsequently recovered. During the recovery we discovered something very interesting, specifically we discovered a non-Hyūga wielder of the Byakugan"

Hiashi's eyebrows shot up and he almost lost it then and there before calming down and asking "I hope that I was called here to find that you have a solution to this problem"

Hiruzen nodded "Yes I do have a solution, as the person in question is the last of his family and doesn't have any living relatives, it might be in the best interest of the Hyūga family to adopt him into either the Main Branch of the Branch Family, since he is a descendent of a Main Branch Family member who was born without the Byakugan"

Hiashi nods at the logic of this statement and asks "Who is the person in question and can I meet him?"

Hiruzen laughs loudly waking Naruto and says "The person in question is Naruto Uzumaki and he's right there" before pointing at the sleepy Naruto who was sitting up with his eyes half-closed. Even with his eyes half-closed Hiashi could see that the boy has the Byakugan.

Naruto looks up tiredly and says "Hey what are all those pretty blues lines and dots they're shiny" (A/N remember he's tired and was just woken up)

Hiashi jumps realizing that Naruto had activated his Byakugan without effort and he could only now see the bulging veins around his eyes that signified activation.

Hiashi's mind soared at this, this little boy without any training could activate the Byakugan so easily, and Hiashi was shocked as even he would have to say Byakugan to focus the chakra properly.

Hiashi turned to Hiruzen and said "I will have him join the Hyūga clan, but first I must go and inform the elder council. Good night"

Hiruzen nods "Good night. (Turning to Naruto) come on Naruto I'll have you sleep over at my place, you're in no condition to go home"

Naruto nods and follows Hiruzen with a zombie like gait.

Twenty Minutes Later. Hyūga Compound

Hiashi watched as the Elders shuffled in, six from the Main Branch and six from the Branch families with him as the tie-breaker.

One of the Main Branch Elders stood up and asked "Hiashi-sama why have you convened the council at such a late hour?"

Hiashi stops thinking about his daughters at that moment and replies "It was brought to my attention by the Hokage, that a member of the Konoha Shinobi has the Byakugan by birth"

The hall went so silent you could hear a pin drop before one of the Branch Elders asked "How is this possible and what are we going to do about it?"

Hiashi sighs and says "It appears that forty years ago a Main Branch Family Member born without the Byakugan was exiled from the clan, he later travelled to another country and had children. One of whom came here and had a child of her own. The mother was killed during the Kyūbi attack but the child still lives. The Hokage has asked us to adopt the child but there is one complication"

Another Main Branch Elder asks "What is the complication?"

Hiashi steels himself and replies "The complication is that the child's name is… Naruto Uzumaki"

The entire hall is silent while the elders process what he said, the one saving grace was that they like the rest of the Shinobi clans treated Naruto well and didn't act like he was the fox reincarnated; several of their members had on several occasions helped the boy

One of the Branch Elders asked "How are we going to join this boy into the clan and is he going to be Branch Family or Main Family?"

Hiashi replies "That is an interesting question, I cannot answer the first one but the second is up for debate, technically he is a Main Branch Family member but he could also be a Branch family member. There is also the matter of what would happen if the Kyūbi fights us when we try to put the Cage Bird seal on"

A Main Elders asks "What do you mean? He is just a boy"

Hiashi nods "He is. But he also holds the fox and the fox may not take kindly to use trying to put a seal on the boy that could also be used to control it"

The Elders all nod at this information before a Branch Elder looks up and says "Wait I've got it. We need a way to join him to our clan right (Everyone nods). Then we have two main options, Adoption or Marriage. But there is a third one; we can claim him as a clan member due to his Byakugan. And for what we will do in regards to his position, we can make him a bodyguard for your eldest Hiashi-sama."

Hiashi nods "That's brilliant"

One of the Branch Elders laughs Hiashi looks at him and asks "What so funny?"

The Branch elder wipes his eyes and says "I just remembered the fact that your eldest Hinata has a crush on Naruto, so putting them together could have several outcomes, 1. They could end up married. 2. Naruto could help Hinata become stronger and more confident and 3. Naruto would be able to learn the Hyūga techniques from her allowing Hinata to learn how to teach the next generation"

All the elders are happy at this and so is Hiashi. So they call for a vote and for the first time in 30 years there is a unanimous decision. Naruto Uzumaki will become Naruto Hyūga.

As he left the hall Hiashi wondered what Hinata would think of her new bodyguard.

Finished, the next chapter may take a while as this story is secondary to 'A New Point of View', 'Hinata: The Kyūbi's keeper' and 'Naruto's Reaper Bloodline' but I will update it eventually. Also I'm planning on doing a Harem story in the future and will be putting up a poll on my profile on who will be in it. There will be about five to ten girls and Hinata is confirmed as the main. Also the girls will only get along harmoniously with Naruto and Hinata they will fight amongst themselves a lot, which I find more realistic then a bunch of girls getting along for no apparent reason other than they like the same guy, I mean come on there is always going to be arguments between friends and harem members. Anyway enjoy – dragonsong2795
