A/N: Hope you like the story and don't forget to review and check out my other fanfictions
.The war was over and Naruto was glad for it. Madara and Kaguya had been extremely annoying not to mention he had to fight with his 'best friend' Sasuke to become Hokage and to get him back on his side.
Naruto sighed, still today was the day he was going to be named Hokage. Naruto mourned the loss of Neji and wished that Obito could have been alive too. He snapped out of his thoughts after hearing his name being called by the sixth Hokage, Kakashi.
Kakashi groaned while Naruto smirked, "You couldn't have told me about this before?" Kakashi asked annoyed.
"What, I thought that at least one of you Hokage should have known about this," Naruto replied.
"Well obviously we didn't," Replied Kakashi menacingly watching 15 of Naruto's clones doing the paperwork.
Naruto just grinned, "You know you don't have to watch me, I used to stay here with Jiji a lot, I will have no problems.
"Well it's either this or avoiding Guy."
Naruto nodded in understanding. There was a knock on the door "Come in," Naruto ordered.
Several of the Jounin entered, "Hokage-sama congratulations!"
Naruto nodded, "Thanks but don't call me Hokage-sama, ya know, just Naruto is fine."
"Well anyway... Naruto we have gotten you a gift for you." Shikamaru announced stepping in front, "We know, Jiraiya-sama was important to you, so it's something of his, although it may be a bit outdated." Shikamaru added before handing him a set of books wrapped in a golden cover.
Naruto twitched reading the book's name, "Well we best be going..." A jounin announced as several others left feeling the tension. Shikamaru, however being a Nara was unfortunately slow.
"What the hell is this, Shikamaru? I expected this from Ebisu sensei or Kakashi sensei but you too?" Naruto asked holding out the limited edition Icha Icha set.
"What do you mean idio... oh right!" Shikamaru smacked himself, "You were never a Jounin so you wouldn't know."
"Huh?" Naruto asked questioningly.
"Man this is going to be troublesome." Shikamaru grumbled to himself, "Where should I start..."
Don't worry Shikamaru, I'll explain it to Naruto, you take a seat."
"Explain what?" Naruto asked dumbly.
Kakashi shook his head at Naruto, "Seiously Naruto you never pay attention do you? All those years you spent with Jiraiya and you didn't notice it."
"Notice what?"
"Well you used to proofread the Icha Icha right?"
Naruto nodded grimly, "Yeah, it was disgusting."
"No it was ingenious." Seeing Naruto about to interrupt him, Kakashi held up a hand and cut him off, "Not ingenious in that way. You know of Jiraiya Sama's spy network, yes?"
Naruto nodded.
"Well that book is," Kakashi added pointing to the Icha Icha in Naruto's hands, "nearly everything Jiraiya knew from his spy network coded in such a way that only any Konoha ninja above Jounin are taught to decipher. In other words, it's a spy book although quite outdated by now, like Shikamaru said."
Naruto didn't say anything but just simply stated dumbfounded.
"Are you alright, Naruto?" Shikamaru asked worryingly.
Naruto simply turned to face the two of them and made the most intelligent answer he could think of,
"THE ICHA-ICHA IS A WHAT!?"
