The third Hokage, Sarutobi retired leader of the village Konoha, stared down his newly chosen successor, Arashi. He was enraged that the Yondaime was so eager to give up his life so quickly when there were many other people that needed him.
“Arashi, I cannot let you give your life for this village leaving your newborn son without any living relations! You are not the only one capable of doing this.” argued Sarutobi, “You’re so young and you have a son to take care of now. Konoha needs a new young person not a retired old man as their Hokage.”
“Sarutobi-sama I can’t possibly expect anyone to carry out this plan other than myself. . . It’s a suicide mission. It is my plan and I will be the one to follow through with it.” rebutted Yondaime as he walked with his son in his arms toward the door.
As Yondaime went to walk by Sarutobi, Sarutobi used a sleep inducing jutsu to keep Arashi from interfering with his own plan.
“I’m sorry to do this to you Arashi but you will thank me for it one day.” said Sarutobi as he prevented Yondaime from collapsing.
He set him down on the floor and took the child from his arms, he said to the new born, “I wish I didn’t have to do this to you but there is now other way. . . I’m sure your Father will take good care of you and the village.”
He left the abandoned hospital with the infant to head toward the nine-tails.

Arashi woke up, wondering what had just happened. He shot up. 'Damn, Sarutobi you had better be not be dead or I’ll kill you.' thought Arashi fighting back tears. He got up from where he was sitting and with his greatest speed headed toward the scene. . . .

As Arashi arrived to the horrifying scene, he realized he was too late to stop Sarutobi from going through with his plan of self-sacrifice.
Sandaime had just finished Shiki Fujin no jutsu and had begun to crumple to the ground but Arashi used the Body Flicker jutsu to prevent the Hokage from falling.
With tears in his eyes Arashi started, “Stupid old man. . . It was my job to die. . . Not yours, Damn it!” Arashi’s voice trailed off as he found his son crying in a small basket only a few feet away. He laid down the dead Hokage.
Arashi slowly walked over to his son who was now starting to cry after being awoken by Arashi’s yelling. Not knowing what else to do Arashi slowly lifted up his son and held him close, tears still running down his face.
“Shh. . .Shh it’ll be alright . . .,”
He paused and a few tears ran down his face, “I’m sorry” was all he could say to his son.
As Arashi stood there the ANBU black ops arrived to check the area. He was asked what had happened but without saying anything walked away with his son in his arms.
