Summary
It technically wasn't a violation of orders for Itachi to help foster Naruto's fuuinjutsu talent.
Hiruzen had only ordered away those who had a close relationship with Minato and Kushina. It just happened to be that practically anyone who could do anything about Naruto's treatment was on that list. It came with the territory of one being their leader and another being one of the friendliest people to ever exist in Konoha.
Technically, Itachi wasn't close to them while they were alive. He wasn't even in the academy yet when they died.
Genma just wished it didn't make it harder to keep Naruto out of Danzo's grubby little hands.
--
In another world, Itachi only has Sasuke left to lose.
In this world, he found a somewhat-healthy coping mechanism and another precious person, even if it might be treason.

Summary
“…Good job, Naruto.” Iruka hesitated in handing him the headband. Naruto met his eyes with a smile and grabbed it out of his hand.
“Thank you, Iruka-sensei,” he returned, trying to keep his voice casual.
He took his time walking to the room of graduates, wanting to savour his first victory in so long. His hitai-ate fit snugly around his forehead, the cloth warm but the metal cool. He’s done! He’s really, finally done!
The last two years had been hell. But now, finally, Naruto’s graduated. Yes, he’s late, and yes, he’s fourteen, but he was done. That drowned out everything else.
Naruto had to take the genin exams thrice. What if, when he failed, he actually had to repeat a year? How would a fourteen-year-old Naruto, forced onto a team of ‘babies’, with a sensei who’s made a religion out of his past, fare?
Featuring a booksmart and slightly more mature Naruto; a reserved, less revenge-obsessed medic Sasuke; a lively, genjutsu-focused Sakura; and a long-suffering Kakashi constantly at his wit’s end. Canon-divergent. Naruto & Kakashi focused.
(Title and desc may change.)

Minato Namikaze time travels from the fourth great ninja war to the kyuubi attack and proceeds to change everything he can. With great skill and extreme displeasure at how things went in the future. He beats the village back into some semblance of proper function. And takes out the trash called Danzo and the Elder Council with great pleasure.
