As Naruto and Jiraiya return to Konoha (post time skip), they notice some very worrisome things: the forest is torn up, there's a gaping hole in the city wall, and there are two heads up on pikes on either side of the main gate. As they approach, they see the decaying, but still recognisable faces of Kabuto and Sasuke. The gate guard claims that Sakura, of all people, put the heads up there, as a warning of the fates of spies and traitors. The damage is the result of several raids by Sound-nin, backed by Grass-nin and Mist-nin.
As they head toward the Hokage's Tower, they hear a number of rumours, some more believable than others. That the Hyuuga Main House were planning to betray the Leaf, he could sort of believe. That Hinata freed the Branch House from their caged bird seals, he finds impressive, but can easily accept. But, that Hinata pulled an Itachi on the Main House, leaving only herself and Hanabi as survivors? That's way out there. (Although, its probably the only way she could free the Branch House.)
As for Orochimaru, he's dead, or alive, or he was Sasuke, or he's sealed in a urinal, or he's been eaten by a giant slug, or...
As for Tsunade, she's recovering from her injuries, or she's in a coma, or she's off getting drunk, or she's dead, or-
Well, at that point they decide to stop dwaddling and go directly to the Tower, to find out just what the bloody anal fuck happened while they were gone!
So, any takers?
