Hey everyone Naruto Senju Ootsutsuki here with another chapter of the story. Once again sorry for the long wait as its harder for me to write more chapters. I've been very busy but now I'm stuck at home a lot due to the virus outbreak. I don't have the virus thank god. But now thankfully i finally have more time to focus on the story. Hope you all enjoy it.

Menma headed towards the door and gripped the handle when he heard a voice telling him to stop. He slowly turned his head to see Naruto turning his head towards him. He could see a smile upon his fare, gentle face. His eyes were showing amounts of kindness with no amount of disdain and anger like he did the last time they met. Releasing the handle Menma walked towards the bed. His brother slowly sat up grunting a bit.

"I knew you could hear me" Menma chuckled. "Like I said before, I'm sorry that I lost control of the ninetails. I don't know what went wrong."

"Didn't your parents ever train you to control it?" Naruto asked. "Surely with Kushina being a former jinchuuriki. You would have been trained to control it"

Menma felt a little embarrassed but he had to agree with Naruto. He wasn't trained in the basics of controlling a tailed beast's chakra yet. What's the point of having a jinchuuriki if they can't even control their power.

"No I haven't reached that level of training yet. My parents taught me the basics first before moving on to Ninjutsu and other stuff. I mastered low rank jutsus and I was good in taijutsu. My Fuinjutsu skills suck balls, and i suck at genjutsu."

"And yet even after all that training, they didn't teach you to unlock the Kyuubi's chakra?"

"Well according to dad. I needed to train my body before allowing the Kyuubi's chakra to flood my body." Menma sighed. "He always said it takes a power being to wield power"

"You took that kind of advice from your father instead of asking advice from the actual jinchuuriki in your family." Naruto face palmed.

"Um I guess so" Menma chuckled nervously.

"You're an idiot. It takes more than just training your body. First, you need to train your mind as well as your body. A tailed beast are known to be very manipulative and cunning. If you lack a strong mind then you lack the mental strength to combat their influence. Second you need to have perfect chakra control. Kurama's chakra is potent and highly acidic, if your chakra control severely lacks then the chakra can cause some major bodily harm or worse you can lose yourself to it and go berserk." Naruto explained.

"Right and look what happened I nearly killed you. I'm a monster" Menma cried trying to wipe his eyes.

Sensing his brothers distress he patted the bed motioning his brother to sit. Taking the invite Menma sat down close to him. Naruto placed a hand on his shoulder with a firm but gentle grip.

"Menma look at me" Naruto said softly.

Menma looked up with his saddened filled eyes to gaze into Naruto's light blue ones.

"You're not a monster. You just lost control when you gave into your anger. you weren't yourself." Naruto explained trying to ease his pain.

"Exactly I wasn't myself!" Menma shouted. "What if I end up hurting the ones I care about again. I could hurt mom, dad, or anyone in the village!"

"No jinchuuriki is perfect. But if you truely want to ensure that you don't lose control again. Then get off your ass, go home, and demand training from your parents. The only ones to blame are your parents who should have trained you from the start."

"But...but I don't want to hurt anyone again." He sniffled. "I'm afraid to use this power again."

Naruto wiped his brother's tears with his thumbs and held his face in his hands. Menma sniffled again, his tears running anime style as he wrapped his arms around his brother. Naruto ran his hand through Menma's hair letting him let out all of his pain and sadness.

"A word of advice brother, to combat a powerful source of chakra like Kurama's. We must fill ourselves with love. Love is the only thing powerful enough to combat the chakra's malicious nature." Naruto said gently, still running his hands through Menma's hair.

Menma slowly looked up at his brother. He was confused at Naruto's attitude towards him. Even after how he acted towards him when they first met in the hokage's office.

"Naruto why are you so forgiving towards me?. I thought you hated me like you do my parents"

Naruto understood Menma's question. True he hated Minato and Kushina for abandoning him for a prophecy. But he couldn't bring himself to hate his brother. He believed that Menma was also a victim in this, I mean sure he was one of the reasons they left but not the main reason. I mean how could a infant be the cause of his abandonment. He may have held hatred for Menma once before. But after today he knew Menma truly was remorseful for his actions. Which separated him from his power greedy parents.

"I will admit, that I felt hatred for you once. You became their main priority and I became the extra baggage. But I soon came to realize that it wasn't fair to blame you for something that you had no knowledge of. Your parents abandoned me thinking that I would be safe here without taking consideration of the mental state of the people who lost loved ones in the Kyuubi attack."

"You dont hate me?" Menma whispered clutching him tighter.

"No I don't" Naruto answered as he clutched his brother close to him.

After a brief moment he released Menma from the hug. Menma sat up as he pulled off the blankets and stood up. He stretched his muscles a bit as he felt fine as a fiddle. Then the nurse came in to check up on him and was shocked to him fully recovered and out of bed.

"Young lord Senju your not supposed to be out of bed. You couldn't have recovered that fast." The nurse asked shocked.

"As you can see I am perfectly fine. You forget my Uzumaki regeneration and my healing factor of being a former jinchuuriki sped up my recovery." Naruto gave a goofy grin. "Have my parents visited me at all in the hospital?"

The nurse quickly checked the visitors log and nodded. "Yes Naruto sama. Your parents visited you twice today. Lady Mito was so worried about you. I had never seen her so worried in my life. After she visited you a few hours ago, she looked like she was going to kill someone."

Menma gulped as he had a feeling that someone was him. Since it was him that attacked Naruto. Naruto was sweatdropping as he knew his mom was pretty overprotective. He remembered a time when a man try to sell him a cheap knock off toy. His mother beat the man's ass so bad for trying to scam him. His mother was a real mother wolf.

"Thank you nurse but seeing as I am okay. Am I free to leave?"

Seeing as there was no injury she could see and the boy looked perfectly healed. She couldn't help but sign the release papers for Naruto to leave early. Thanking her, Naruto asked Menma if he wanted to head out for some lunch to get to know each other better as brothers. Menma wanted nothing more than that, nodding his head excitedly.

Konoha Downtown District

Tsunade POV

I was enjoying my day so far. I was hanging out at my favorite local bar The Golden Dragon with my old teammate Jiraya and my son Minato. The bar was filled with people. Guys playing billards, girls dancing on stage much to my perverted teammates face. I could see the perverted look in his eyes. That idiot couldn't even go on day without staring at a beautiful woman. Well at least it wasn't me this time. The bar tender pouring us a drink was an old friend of mine. Hachi Kazama, son of the owner and big boss himself Daichi Kazama.

"Hey Tsunade it's been a while since you've come to drink at my bar" Hachi cackled pouring me a drink.

"What can I say, I had family business to take care of" I laughed chugging down my drink in a instant. "Damn that's good sake, hit me again."

"You sure know how to hold your drink. So what brings you back to the village so early. I thought you guys weren't going to be back for 13 years." Hachi asked.

"Well I won't go into details but a certain situation came up." I told him, not wanting to reveal more.

"Hey what ever it's your buisness Tsunade."

The bartender left to tend to other customers as I reached out and grabbed a whole bottle of sake. I needed a large drink to make me forget about a certain red head. Damn that brat gave me such a migraine after our encounter. That brat had the nerve to insult me, make fun of my medical skills. And even had the gall to bring up my age. I chugged down the bottle like a mad woman. After a large gulp I slammed the bottle down. Jiraiya and Minato take notice of me over doing it.

"Hey Tsunade hime easy there. You don't want to end up drunk again." Said Jiraiya.

I scoffed as he tried to take away my bottle as I swatted his hand away. My son gave me a look which was the same look he gave me when I was drunk off my ass and started a bar fight a few days before we left for the fire capital. I nearly got in trouble with the owner and had to pay for the damages.

"Mother please control your drinking, we don't want a repeat of last time when you started a bar fight."

"Oooh come off it Minato, you know very well those men started the fight when they thought I was an easy score for sex." I growled softly taking another gulp of sake. "Besides I learned my lesson. Now let me enjoy my drink."

Normal POV

It was now getting late in the afternoon and yep you guessed it. Tsunade was once again drunk off her ass. Her breathe smelled like sake and she could barely even walk. The bartender had to cut her off because she had her 23rd glass of sake. Of course this enraged her as she believed she didnt have enough. But the bartender stood firm in his decision to cut her off. Seeing there was no way to convince him she tried another approach. Leaning over the counter she revealed her cleavage making her large D cup breasts pop out. Jiraiya screamed as he flew back with a nose bleed. Minato could only groan knowing this wasn't going to end well.

Shaking her breasts in the man's face. She hoped her seductive nature would get him to change his mind. However unknown to her, the man was a happily married man and he didnt take kindly to people who would seduce him for free benefits, free drinks, or free anything. He immedietly pressed a button to call the security Anbu that his father hired in case of emergencies.

"I'm sorry Lady Tsunade but I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to leave now. You've had enough drinks for today." He stuttered.

Tsunade groaned as she slammed her fist into the counter leaving a spider web crack in it. She climbed over the corner and grabbed the man by his shirt and gripped her fist tightly about to punch him.

"Listen here pal." She slurred. "I tried to be nice, I even offered you a chance to peak at my beautiful body."

She ripped off her shirt revealing her full naked chest making so many men have the same reaction as Jiraiya. Luckily the Anbu weren't affected by it and moved to restrained Tsunade.

"You still deny me a drink. Looks like I need to teach you some manners." She raised her fist to punch him.

"Hey what's going on?" She yelled as she felt her hands being tied behind her back. "Do you know who your messing with? Hands off me I'm Lady Tsunade of the Senju clan!"

"Lady Tsunade you are under arrest for assault and prostitution." ANBU Bear stated firmly.

"You are to be held in the local jail center until you are released on bail." said Anbu Hawk

Tsunade was then hauled out of the bar kicking and screaming. Minato slammed his head on the counter in embarrassment. His sensei Jiraiya was to drunk and Lady happy to even care. Now he had to go and file for his mother's release. He just couldn't catch a break. For once he just wanted to have a normal day with his family without any trouble. Was that so much to ask?.

Meanwhile Naruto was leaving the hospital with Menma. The villagers greeted Naruto with warm greetings and smiles. Menma got some smiles, but most were still unsure about him given his parents reputation. Menma tried his best to ignore some of the glares he was getting. Naruto called out to him telling him to hurry up so they could make it to Ichirakus. Not waiting for an answer Menma immediately dashed towards him.

"Come on Ichiraku is on me." Naruto offered.

"Thanks little brother but I think I should be treating you. You know for almost killing you during class."

"Hey dont look a gift horse in the mouth."

"Your not going to let me treat you are you?" Menma sweatdropped.

"Nope." Naruto grinned. "Now come on."

The two boys rushed down the street hoping to get to the Ramen stand before they closed. Tonight was the leaf music festival so many buisness were going to close for the occasion. Taking a sharp turn around a corner through an alley they noticed the Ramen stand was a few feet away. Naruto could smell the ramens sweet aroma. It's delicious flavor, it's scrumptious delicious noodles, the tender meat. Oooh it was driving him crazy. He walked only a few steps as he heard a loud crash from two buildings down on his left. What he saw was something he never thought possible. There being restrained by the Police force was none other than Tsunade herself.

This was to good for Naruto to pass up. Looks like he would be getting a show before lunch. He soon also noticed Madara being led by two police officers. He could see Madara glaring down at the slug princess. Wanting to know more Naruto told Menma to wait at the stand as he rushed over to meet his uncle.

"Well well Tsuande looks like the law finally caught up with you." Madara sneered.

"Fat chance uchiha you can't hold me for long. Besides I was just having a drink and making conversation." Tsunade scoffed.

"You mean with your fists and showing off your breasts. You tried to seduce a married man into buying you more sake." Madara groaned.

"Wow what do you know." Naruto chuckled.

Madara turned his head to see his godson standing there. He didn't even see him coming.

"Naruto what are you doing here? I thought you were in the hospital?"

"I was released uncle. You know my healing factor rivals that of a tailed beast." Naruto boasted. "Also I was heading to Ichiraku Ramen when I noticed lady Tsuande being hauled into the precinct. What happened?"

"Lady Tsunade was causing a ruckus at the golden dragon and using um naughty means to get him to buy her more sake. He refused and she lost it." Anbu Hawk answered.

Naruto looked at Tsunade and could see from her expression and drunken state that the Anbu was telling the truth. He could see the slug princess was trying to plead her case that she wasn't guilty of any crime. She said she was just having a good time at her favorite bar.

"Arrested for prostitution I can't belive it" Naruto snapped at Tsunade.

"Hey you tomato haired runt, I'm innocent of what they have accused me of" Tsuande retorted.

"I know that, I can't believe these idiots would think any man would pay money to sleep with you." Naruto replied making the slug princess gasp and Madara cover his laughter. "Or in your case Tsunade it would be necrophilia with your old shrivelled body and fake breasts implants."

Tsunade's mouth opened wide with shock and Madara fell back clutching his sides with laughter. The Anbu could tell that Naruto has been hanging around Madara too much. The slug princess roared as she struggled against the anbu's grip so she could give the brat a full beat down.

"That's it I'm going to pound that brats face in." Tsuande growled struggling against the Anbu's grip. "He's going to be black and blue and less of a man when I'm through with him."

"Really Naruto?" A voice called out.

Naruto turned around to see Kakashi reading his orange book. "You can't go one day with out insulting Tsunade? What ever happened to treating your superiors with respect?"

"Oooh don't worry Kakashi nii. Tsunade still has my respect as a medical master and elixir crafter. I just like to get a rouse out of her every once in a while." He chuckled as he noticed the clock on the precinct building. "Oooh crap I got to meet Menma at Ichiraku catch you later Kakashi, bye uncle Madara. Oooh and make sure to behave yourself Lady Tsunade and a word of advice. Date someone your age, I heard the great toad sage is the perfect age for you. Try him, bye"

Tsunade was soon dragged into the police station was six officers to keep her from chasing down the Senju heir and beating him to a pulp. She swore revenge on the brat as she was dragged inside. Kakashi watching the whole thing groaned. He hoped Naruto would grow out of his roasting phase and become more mature like his parents. But hey your only young once so you better enjoy it while you can. But another thing confused him. Since when was Naruto on friendly terms with Menma?.

Back at Ichiraku Ramen, Menma was looking over the menu wondering what he should get while waiting for Naruto. Ayame placed a glass of water in front of him. She greeted him with a warm smile.

"Hello Menma what can I get for you.?" Ayame smiled brightly.

"I'll have one small Miso Ramen please if that's ok?." He asked.

"Certainly, coming right up" she giggled. "Dad! We got an order for a small Miso Ramen."

"Coming right up" teuchi yelled as he began cooking.

"Make that two old man" Naruto said taking his seat.

"Oooh Naruto welcome back." Ayame smiled giving her precious little brother a hug.

"Thanks Ayame nee chan" Naruto chuckled warmly.

"Your back Naruto what happened?" Menma asked taking a sip of his water.

"Oh your grandmother got arrested for assault and prostitution."

"S...say what now?" Menma sputtered spitting out his drink.

"Exactly as I said."

"Ooooh great, as if our lives in the village wasn't bad enough" Menma slammed his head onto the counter.

"Hey don't beat yourself up. Your not responsible for her actions."

"I know but my grandmother's drinking habits are worse than her gambling habits. Like a few years ago she gambled 120,000 ryo on a game of poker. A game she sucks ass at. She even tripled the amount on the third game. She loses and what does she do, she flees and my parents had to pay off her debt. We were lucky she stopped gambling or the entire Namikaze clan accounts would have bled dry." Menma sighed in irritation.

"Geez I can see now why she's called the legendary sucker." said Naruto as he was served his drink. "Uncle Madara told me she was called that for a different reason. But he never told me, said I was to young to understand."

Before Menma could even answer that, Ayame served them their Ramen. The smell was so toxicating, the aroma was enough to drag you in. Taking their chopsticks they thanked Teuchi and his daughter before digging in.

Hope you've all enjoyed the long awaited chapter. Once again I'm so sorry for the delay, now that I have more free time I should be able to update more often. I wanted to focus on Naruto and Menma's brotherly relationship in this chapter. Hoping that fans would find it amusing. I know fans don't want Naruto to forgive his former parents and believe me he won't. But he we will have a working relationship with them when it comes to missions. Anyway hope you all enjoy the chapter. I love to hear your reviews and feedback.
