[3rd POV]

The village of Konoha was quite a beautiful place, even by Wanda’s standards. It was large, lively, and was surrounded by trees that were created through the Mokuton, the Kekkei genkai of Hashirama. The trees were quite literally infused with chakra and natural energy, making them stronger and more resilient than normal trees.

They were also absolutely massive.

Wanda already copied their makeup so she could introduce it to her own plant dimensions, as they were uniquely made and would strengthen all the other trees in the plant dimension. She was sure that Ivy would like that.

Naruto had been dragging her around the village, showing her and Milim all of the shops and places of interest. Like the various clan compounds, the Anbu headquarters which he regularly pranked, Ichiraku Ramen (although they only looked at it from afar, she’d eat there later), and even his home.

His home was large, thanks to him moving into the clan compound. It was sealed away so that only he could enter it. At least, before it was like that, but he allowed Wanda in as well as Milim (albeit reluctantly). The clan was full of tons of scrolls, even after he had sold Wanda hundreds of them.

And he was still finding more all over the place, including ones that were secretly sealed in rooms and such.

But now they were standing in front of the primary office of the Hokage, with Naruto already showing them the hokage mountain, which was a bit interesting, but wasn’t all that special in Wanda’s eyes. She was honestly surprised that there wasn’t some sort of seal of sort in order to defend it from any attacks or defacement.

“So this is where the Hokage works out of? It’s…pretty underwhelming, to be honest. I’d have thought it would be larger” Wanda said, unimpressed with the unassuming building. It had people coming and going from it, but in general, it was underwhelming and not nearly as special as she was expecting it to be.

“Hey! Jiji’s office is pretty cool! Well…mostly cool at least” Naruto said, trailing off slightly as he inwardly couldn’t help but agree slightly that Wanda wasn’t entirely wrong. The place was boring looking on the outside, but it was a lot more interesting inside.

Walking into the large building, Wanda glanced around.

“Okay, I can admit that it does look a bit better in here than out there” Wanda admitted, as she looked around. The building had a lot of murals for past Kage on the inside, with professionally made paintings and other carvings marking the insides.

They were well made, even by Wanda’s standards.

“Told you! Now c’mon, let’s go see gramps!” Naruto exclaimed, as he began to pull Wanda and Milim with him, through the building as shinobi and other workers glanced at them in confusion, before shrugging once they saw that it was Naruto who was dragging the two mystery people with him.

He had done it quite a few times before.

Eventually they made it to the door of the Hokage’s office, and without even letting Wanda utter a word, Naruto kicked the door open, bringing them with him as Hiruzen looked up with a raised eyebrow. He almost instantly noticed the two unknown individuals with Naruto, not only that, but he noticed that he could not sense anything from either of them. No energy, no intentions, nothing.

That was unusual, as he could read even civilians with the tiniest amounts of chakra, and yet he couldn’t with them for some reason.

“Naruto? What are you doing here? And who are these two?” Hiruzen asked, glancing at them, as the shinobi who he was speaking with glanced back at them with a raised eyebrow. This shinobi was in fact Anko Mitorashi.

“This is Wanda! She’s like my auntie! And this is her daughter, Milim” Naruto explained, less enthusiastically once he spoke of Milim, as she gave the back of his head a glare.

“Well, it’s nice to meet you, Wanda-San, Milim-San” Hiruzen stated, as he looked at the two. He noticed the unique look of Wanda, as well as her name which was definitely foreign. He also noticed the way she looked completely unbothered by his glances.

Not only that, but the fact that Naruto called her Auntie, was a cause for concern.

“And to you as well, Sarutobi-San” Wanda responded, not minding that he called them by their first names, as usually it would be the last name that they would say first, but in this case, not so much.

She cared little for etiquette in a situation like this one.

“So, Naruto, what can I do for you and your…friends?” Hiruzen asked, looking at Naruto while Anko was busy ogling Wanda, who was easily the most beautiful woman she had ever seen. Having literal divine beauty would do that.

Anko swung both ways.

“Just wanted to show them around the village, it’s the first time they’ve ever been, which is crazy!” Naruto exclaimed, as if it was sacrilegious or something. Wanda just giggled at the boys statement, while Hiruzen raised an eyebrow.

“You’ve never been here before? Where exactly do you live, Wanda-San?” Hiruzen asked, interested. While Anko finished ogling Wanda’s…bountiful assets, and instead listened to the conversation.

“I live outside the village, running a small little bookstore. I believe Naruto’s fellow teammates have been there before, Kakashi, Sasuke, and Sakura” Wanda responded, ignoring the obvious confusion of the man before her.

“And how did you enter the village? You got the proper paperwork, right?” Anko asked, becoming somewhat serious upon hearing about her background.

“Nah, I brought her in myself, Auntie is cool! The guards let her in because she was with me, the future Hokage!” Naruto exclaimed, yelling…again. The boy sure loved to yell a lot.

At the response, the two looked at him with deadpans on their faces, realizing that he had just broken a dozen different laws, and potentially had put the village in it’s entirety at risk.

“Naruto, you cannot just let people in because you know them. They could be spies or assassins for all we know. What you’ve done is incredibly foolish, and could put people at great risk” Hiruzen said, a sigh escaping his lips as he didn’t even feel like yelling at the boy.

Instead, he was just irritated more than anything, because of the boy being a fool.

But he was still a boy, so it wasn’t entirely shocking that he had done something like this, and with Naruto being…well Naruto, he’s not surprised.

“Yeah but she won’t do that! Auntie is a good person! She also makes the best ramen in the world, even better than Ichiraku’s!”

“Naruto-” “No! She helped me learn about my past! She’s the reason why I know about my heritage and why I learned about the Uzumaki clan! She’s the reason why I can beat Teme in a fight! Not you! So don’t go accusing her of doing anything, because she is not a bad person!” Naruto cut him off, becoming angry as he yelled at the man.

Hiruzen was shocked into silence, while Wanda softly sighed “Naruto, calm down. He’s simply worried that I can prove a risk to others. But I am honored that you care for me so much to defend me against your Hokage” Wanda said softly, as the boy looked up at her, before looking back at Hiruzen.

“Look, I don’t care that she wasn’t supposed to be in here old man. I care about her, I trust her, and that’s all that matters. She’s cared more for me than just about anyone else in this village, she’s been the only person I can see as a mother, so you won’t take that from me, got it?” Naruto said, glaring at the man for the first time.

Hiruzen just sat in silent shock, having never seen Naruto act like this before. He was usually so happy go lucky, but now…now he was glaring at the older man in what could best be described as hatred.

Hatred for attempting to take the woman he saw as a mother from him.

With everything said and done, Naruto looked to Wanda, and pulled her back with him, as she was dragged away from the office. As all of this happened, Wanda looked down at Naruto, one thought on her mind.

‘…He sees me as a mother?’
