3-> ''Can I tell you a secret? Don't tell Tsunade or Shizune, because they would get really mad if they knew. But I have plans for you. Great plans. Once I'm done with you, you'll be the biggest pervert Konoha has ever seen, hahaha! I will teach you everything I know so no girl will be able to resist your charms! You'll be a legend second only to yours truly! [...] Oh yeah, and you'll be a great ninja too. I guess that's important as well.''

8The story begins shortly after the night the Kyuubi's attack on Konoha. In the aftermath, Hiruzen Sarutobi calls Jiraiya to his office to let him know that, as per the will of Minato and Kushina, he is now Naruto's legal guardian. However, Tsunade bursts in and demands that ''she'' is assigned as Naruto's guardian, as she is his only living relative. To break off the argument, Hiruzen suggests that the two share the boy's custody and live under the same roof to raise him together. They're not amused at the idea, but ultimately agree.

10While it comes across as a traditional FixFic at first, it quickly develops into a very interesting AlternateUniverse that still stays true to the spirit of the series, even making efforts to fill the numerous plot-holes left in canon, and exploring several interesting WhatIf scenarios for the events and characters. It goes both ways, since even though the intervention of the Sannin does solve many of the problems and averts some of the canon tragedies, it also makes way for others to happen, creating a perfect balance to keep it interesting.
