So I hear that you wish to learn of my past, let me tell you, it's not pretty. I had to deal with all sorts of things in all kinds of manners. None were a walk in the park, on second thought I take that back, there was one time I did actually get to walk in the park. I think it was a Thursday, but I digress, you came to hear of my journey. The journey that saved the world and cast those around me to be greater and myself to be a hero. You may laugh at first; I was a crazy kid and had a rough start before I finally worked all the kinks out. Oddly enough that was when I really met her, she seemed to make my life straighten out and work better just by being near me.
I loved that about her, she always seemed to be able to calm me down and keep me occupied with her mere presence. I never knew it at the time but she was the perfect woman to be my wife. Heh, looking back at it now, I find the whole thing funny, borderline hilarious. That woman was always keeping a cool head and it irritated me for a while, then I saw her emotional side, I found that to be very cute as she would blush and giggle like any other girl.
Sorry for getting off track, let's begin this little tale shall we? The tale of the final journey.
A young boy of ten was running around the village after a prank he had pulled. It was quite the feat if you think of it. He had just painted the Hyuuga house pink and changed their clothes with that of might Gai, all while the guards were walked by him. When they people of the house woke, he heard a loud scream of agony and rage before he cracked up laughing and bolted away at speeds that most would not expect from a ten year old.
As he ran, the boy tripped over a root before he fell into a large ravine that was located near the village. As he fell, the boy saw massive spikes jutting out of the walls of the ravine giving the impression of 'if you touch you may lose a hand,' causing him to simply fall.
After what seemed like hours, the boy saw a dim light coming from below him, the light wasn't like any that would be normally thought to be seen, this like was light green and seemed to flow around him as he continued to fall. The light seemed to seep into him while he felt as if something was being stored inside him giving him a complete feel. After the boy had fallen beyond the light, he dropped at a faster rate before he slammed into a flat metal surface.
Groaning out, he started to lift himself up slightly surprised as he wasn't as hurt as he thought he would be from the fall. Looking around, he saw there were several swords lining a circle around him and a single sword stuck in the metal next to him that he had used to lift himself up. Attached to the sword was a holster like object that seemed to be able to hold four blades out of the six that were in the ground. He noticed that there were four swords that had two looking exactly like two others, figuring that the two that looked alike were a set as well as the other ones; he thought they may be able to fit inside the same portion of the holster.
Standing up fully, he looked out further to see a massive city made of metal surrounding him. There were large buildings that seemed like they had a portion crushed by the caverns roof as it had grown over it. There were large paved roadways as well that seemed to go on for a ways. Looking down below him, Naruto saw a single black, thing, against the brown and grey of the ground and concrete.
Looking closer at it he saw a speck of white lying on the black. Looking for a way down, the boy felt the urge to jump from section to section even thought they were meters apart and the gaps looked like they would hurt if he missed.
Taking the urge to note, he jumped from where he was to a lower platform and was surprised to see that he actually made it the entire way with ease. Completing this several times over, he made it to the black thing and lifted the white paper that was situated on top of it. As he read it he got a slightly confused look on his face. It read,
The one who finds this,
I, cloud, have left my bike, Fenrir, and my sword/s to you. I hope that you will use them well.
You are my living legacy.
Seeing that the letter was on top of the thing, he assumed that it was in fact the bike, whatever that was, that was left to him. Looking back up to where he landed, he jumped back up and landed near one of the blades and started to look at it.
As he looked at the six blades, he saw that one was hollow with a spit grip that looked like it could be connected with another. Two of the blades looked like they had serrated backs, with notches taken out and hooks in its place. The other set of two had what seemed like folding handles that folded up against the back of the blade. The last one, the one he landed near at first, looked like it had a massive guard for a skinny blade and a large handle.
Gripping the handle, he lifted it with a grunt as it slid out of its metallic hold. As he looked at it, he saw a section of the guard that seemed like it moved. Pushing it he was surprised to see the blade widen suddenly showing a complex inner core that locked into place. Grinning to himself, he placed the holster on his back and crossing the straps together.
A month had passed before the rest of the village had even seen him again. The boy was so busy getting his strength up to hold the weapons with ease as he seemed to know how to properly use them instinctually. He learned how to use the bike to its fullest potential and learned of the tray it held in the sides after he started to test the things on it out.
During the month he had explored the area around him and saw a tunnel that leads out into a forest that happened to be near his own apartment causing a grin to spread on his face. Doing a bit of renovation to it, he had directed a portion of the tunnel to lead into the basement of the building that the Hokage had given him after the previous landlord tried to overcharge him and give him a rundown building.
After the month of training, the boy had started his pranks once more causing several of the people to complain about it while others were relieved to see him back and up to his old tricks. He never wore the blades or the holster as he wasn't tall enough to have them on his back easily yet. He instead left them all with the bike that was situated in the large cavern that was under his house.
Four years had passed and now the teen was attached to a rope as he painted the Hokage monument in a bright orange jumpsuit. As he finished he pulled himself up to the top of the monument before he started to laugh as his teacher arrived behind him.
Before the teacher could even speak however they two started to hear laughter coming from the village. Looking over the side, the two saw the elderly kage standing on the tower with a large smile on his face as he laughed at what he saw.
The first kage was painted to look as if he was starting out at the trees with a look of longing in his eyes as tears flowed from them. His brother the second had water coming from his mouth as he looked at the onsen with hearts in his eyes causing many to laugh that actually knew him. The third had a light blush on his face as well as some fur with a pipe coming from his mouth that made the man shake his head in amusement. The last of the four had what looked like lightning coming from his eyes and had a grin painted on his face.
Shaking his head the teacher turned to look at the teen to see that he was leaning over the edge with a grin on his face as he looked at him. He pushed off the cliff with a simple jump causing the elder man to run to the edge to see him land in a crouch with an arm extended behind him, the ground around him cracked from the impact. The teacher looked on in surprise as the teen simply stood up and pulled a single balloon out of his pocket before he threw it at the monument.
As it touched the monument, the balloon broke and a large burst of water coated the faces before it fell away to show there was nothing on them anymore receiving a shocked look from the teacher. The teen gave a slight wave as he walked off to the academy with a grin on his face.
(Skipping the exam and the scroll incident)
As he walked into the room, Naruto was on the receiving end of varying looks from his classmates. Some had looks of awe and others of surprise from his sudden change in attire. He now sported a zip up turtleneck shirt that was zipped to the bottom of his neck with two large shoulder guards on either shoulder, the right with a fox head buckle and the left with a wolf. The pauldrons held a leather strap across his chest that held a single sword on his back even though it looked like it could hold more. He had a pair of baggy black pants that covered the top portion of his black heavy duty combat boots from view.
As he walked in and sat down, Sakura looked at him and screeched out to him, "baka, drop the illusion. Dressing like Sasuke kun won't get me to go out with you." Causing several students to cover their ears from the shear pitch of the screech.
"Haruno, if you never realized it before I am older than you, and if you think this is an illusion then try to dispel it." Naruto spoke causing her to go wide eyed as the others all looked in shock at what he said. Before anything else could be spoken thought, Iruka had walked in and took note of the silence before he spotted Naruto and shook his head.
"Naruto, is that an illusion?" he asked simply getting a shake of the teens head. "Alright, well class, you are here for your teams." The man started to say.
"Iruka sensei, why is the baka here? He didn't pass the exam." Sakura screeched out making the man look at her with a flat expression.
"He had a harder test than the others and failed that one, and then he had a field test and was granted a promotion." Iruka said to her causing her mouth to fall open. "Now as I was saying, the teams are." He started as Naruto tuned him out until he heard his name.
"Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno," at hearing this Naruto slammed his head into the desk that he sat at causing cracks to form in it. "And Sasuke Uchiha." He finished as Naruto slammed his head into it once more causing the desk to split in the middle as it drowned out the happy screech from Sakura while making several people look at Naruto with wide eyes.
After the other teams were called on and the sensei of each team had arrived, Naruto sat with an irritated expression on his face as he listened to Sakura asking her crush on dates for three hours straight. Getting tired of waiting Naruto stood and set a trap up for the sensei for when he opened the door to the room.
Several minutes after Naruto was done with the trap, the door slowly opened to reveal a sliver haired person with his headband over one eye. The other eye widened as he saw a barrage of pie coming at him. Quickly shielding his book from harm the man was splattered with the onslaught of pie that would have harmed his precious. Looking up after several seconds the man saw that the pie had stopped getting a sigh of relief from him before a large rubber mallet fell from the ceiling and started to play whack a mole with his hair as it seemed to move erratically to avoid getting hit.
Seeing this, the three students stared in wonder as it moved on its own while the man stood completely still. After several minutes of this the mallet seemed to grow tired as several large beads of sweat dipped down from it before it collapsed to the floor as it made breathing motions. The hair on the other hand seemed to give of the impression of a smirk from the aura it released.
"Alright, my first impression of you three is, I hate you." The man said as if he had never seen the mallet that had fallen in front of him.
As the three sweat dropped from the nonchalant way he said that they heard him say to be on the roof in five minutes. Sakura and Sasuke rushed out the door as Naruto shook his head and walked to the window. Jumping out he jumped from the extended parts of the building that held the beams for the walls. Easily making it to the roof in under a minute, Naruto sat in front of the man while they waited for the other two.
As they arrived threw the door they looked in shock as they saw Naruto sitting there. "Alright, since we're all here. Let's start, I'm Kakashi Hatake, there are things I like and dislike, I have several hobbies and my dreams…. Your too young to hear them." He said before he pointed at Sakura then Sasuke. (Knowing their intro skipping it.)
"Naruto Uzumaki. Likes, my swords and Fenrir. I dislike bigots and arrogant people. Hobby, training, dreams for the future, to be the best there is." Naruto said to them.
"Meet me at the training ground 7 tomorrow at 8. Oh and a word of warning, don't eat breakfast lest you throw it up." The man said to them causing the other two to look in shock while Naruto simply raised an eyebrow at it.
The next day Naruto sat against a stump that was stuck in the ground as he waited for the others while he ate an apple. The other two didn't even notice him as they walked up and stood near a stream that had a small bridge on it.
After the two hours of waiting that Naruto gave him, he stood and pulled out his sword and started to swing it around himself causing a faint whistling to permeate the air around him. After an hour of doing this Kakashi had chosen to arrive to see that the two were looking irritated as Naruto swung his sword with one hand and ate a pear with the other making him sweat drop at the scene.
Explaining the test, Kakashi pulled a timer and two bells from his pocket. Setting the timer on one of the stumps he placed the bells against his pants and said go causing the other two to rush off so that they could hide. Naruto on the other hand stood there looking at him with a bored expression on his face.
"Your odd." Kakashi said as he looked at Naruto.
"Coming from you, that actually kind of hurts." Naruto said as he placed a hand over his heart with a mock look of aghast on his face.
"Well, let's start then, ninja art one, taijutsu." He said as he reached into his pouch to pull a book out.
"You know, if you want to fight put the book down." Naruto said to him with a blank look.
"Oh don't worry; you won't be able to touch me as it is." Kakashi said to him getting a raised eyebrow from the teen.
"Right, I'll keep that in mind." Naruto said before he vanished with a burst of speed. As he reappeared he had a hand on Kakashi's shoulder." Hmm, I think I touched you. How about you?" Naruto said before he asked him.
"Your better than you look." Kakashi said to him as he jumped away.
Naruto smirked before he pulled the first blade out of his holster and swung it forward causing a blue stream of crescent energy to fly at the midair ninja. As he widened his eye seeing the energy wave coming at him, Kakashi quickly sent a wave of earth to it causing a large explosion to fly up into the air. As the dust settled the Jounin looked around for him to hear a sound behind him. Looking he saw that Naruto was there with a glint in his blue eyes as he brought the broad side of the blade about knocking him off the ground with the speed he brought it at.
The force of the blow sent Kakashi flying to a tree that he landed on sideways, standing up he looked to Naruto who stood there with a light smile on his face before he pointed below him causing the Jounin to look down making his eye widen at what he saw.
Below him was a set of wire and kunai that were pointed directly at him as he stood there, looking back at Naruto he saw that the blond now had his sword pointed to seemingly nothing directly in front of him. He would have paid it no mind but he saw a small glint of light off the ground making him realize that Naruto had rested the blade on a wire. Before he could do anything else Naruto let the sword drop the rest of the way cutting the wire and causing the kunai to fly up with a branch the were held by.
To not get stabbed by the kunai, Kakashi jumped away from the tree. Landing on the ground he saw that Naruto still had not moved from where he stood. "I'll come back to you." He said before the Jounin vanished.
Shrugging Naruto placed the sword back into his holster as he waited for him. Several seconds later he heard a loud scream erupt from the forest while he shook his head. After that he soon saw a large ball of fire shoot out of the trees further down before it was hit with a ball of water that rose from the water.
After a couple of minutes Naruto was greeted by the sight of Kakashi once more with a frown on his face.
"So, what got them?" Naruto asked calmly.
"Illusion and simple jutsu. Was she always that bad?" he asked him as he got ready for a fight.
"Oh, yeah." Naruto told him in reply as he pulled two of the sword out.
Waiting for several seconds Naruto pushed off the ground with a light jump sending him forward at the Jounin who waited for him. As he reached the man, Naruto started to slash with expert ease while he was still in the air. Never touching the ground as he moved, Naruto redirected himself into the air higher as he forced Kakashi higher up with the blades. As he looked around himself, Kakashi was surprised to see that Naruto was in fact throwing him into the sky with each strike he placed. As he looked down, he could see the head of the Uchiha looking at him and Naruto with a jealous look on his face as he saw that Naruto was doing better than he did.
Change
After the test was over, the Jounin had made his way to the Hokage office to inform him of the team's results. As he entered the others looked at him in interest as they saw the cuts on his clothes and the weary look that his eye shown.
"So we are all finally here, what are the verdicts?" the kage asked.
Team one through six were fails.
Looking at Kakashi, they expected his answer to be failing, but they were all shocked when he simply said "pass."
"Team 8, pass." The female Jounin said.
"Team 10, pass." The chain smoker said as well.
"Now then how did your team pass Kakashi?" the kage asked him knowing full well what most likely happened.
"Well, there was one of them that was way too skilled." Kakashi started before a random Jounin interrupted him.
"So Sasuke sama did well." He said getting a light glare from the kage and Kakashi.
"No, in fact he only did slightly better than Sakura, she fainted after a simply illusion. Naruto was the one that did this to me, he fought me midair as he threw me into the air with several of the swings with his swords that he used." Kakashi said getting surprised looks from the people in the room aside from the kage.
"I told you not to take him lightly." The kage said as he shook his head at the Jounin.
ZZ
Over the next day, Naruto was called to the council chambers with the Hokage to answer to the council.
"do you know why you are here boy?" one of the elders asked Naruto as he walked into the room and sat before he even bothered to answer them or cared to notice they're presence.
"my guess would be you are trying to usurp the Hokage while not letting it known to anyone but yourselves, then there is the fact that the Uchiha boy is here and most likely jealous that he can't have me because I am straight and would rather like a girl with nice curves and beautiful eyes, luscious lips that I could kiss all day, either that or he wants to have Seventh heaven for himself which will never happen since I own that bar myself." Naruto spoke with a slight smirk on his face as the kage walked in behind him and nearly started to laugh at the shocked faces of the council.
"No Naruto kun, I think they would have a rather hard time with taking the village away from me since I have you on my side and you can do that weird thing like you did against Kakashi with ease." Sarutobi told him getting a nod.
"Yeah, your right, then it must be the fact that I am way too hot for them, and they all want me for themselves, even the men, though I find that rather horrid, the dog lady over there I wouldn't mind though, she looks like she knows how to have a good time. Or maybe her daughter, I bet they both would know what a good time is. They are far more feral looking than most of their clan so it should go without saying. The Hyuuga girl, no way." Naruto spoke seeing no other females on the council, or at least the ninja council.
"You do know that is a guy right? The Hyuuga I mean."
"Really, maybe they should learn to cut their hair, seriously I mistook him for a woman. Does that mean that Neji chan is a guy as well? If so that would explain why she never took the advances from Tenten, or any of the others in that class last year." Naruto spoke still thinking basically out loud, even though he was well aware that he was talking.
The woman with the dog next to her couldn't hold back any longer as she started to laugh madly at what he was saying to them without even caring that most could most likely kill him without so much as a thought.
"I like you kid, your good." She spoke out as she laughed the dog next to her laughing as well.
"Oh, that's not all I am good at; after all I tossed Kakashi around yesterday, though I bet it was mostly due to the fact that he wasn't expecting a gennin to slam a large sword into his chest with enough force to topple a tree with ease." Naruto said with a grin on his face as he remembered the day he actually did topple a tree with a single swing.
"We have called you here today…"
"to tell me how much you love me, I'm flattered truly, but I must sadly reject you all, I don't like men that much sorry, hope you find someone to love and care for you to replace me." Naruto cut in causing several to growl at him while the kage and Tsume, the dog woman, to hold back laughing at their faces, even Sheba and Hiashi smirked at how the kid was humiliating the civilian council without really trying to.
"We called you here to talk about…"
"Please, don't make this harder than it already is, I just can't do long goodbyes or terrible breakups, they just aren't my thing."
"Stop interrupting you dam demon." One of the civilian yelled out.
"Um… you do know that if I am a demon, then you are basically calling every ninja in this room and the Hokage himself a demon correct? Besides, if I am a demon, why were you going to confess your love for me?"
"We demand that you hand over the rightful property of the Uchiha clan you demon."
"My virginity is not the Uchiha's property. Nor will I let him use me to give birth to more of his weird kind, the one that I would have let though was Mikoto chan, she was rather cool. " Naruto spoke to them still thinking that they were going after him personally.
"We are talking about that thing on your back."
"My ass is my own as well. Sicko's."
"I think they mean the sword Naruto."
"Oh, what sword? Do you mean this one, or this one, maybe this one, how about this one?" Naruto asked him as he started to pull random swords out from behind him, the single sword on his back never moving or leaving its place.
"That Is a good question my boy. Though I think they mean the one that you used against Kakashi yesterday."
"Oh, this one. Well, it's useless to you or any of the others, its actually pretty heavy. Plus it is not really much of a sword without five others, since this is the base." Naruto told him as he pulled it out from behind him.
"Give it to me dobe." The Uchiha spoke with is hand out expecting it to be done.
"No, I am not gay thank you for asking though."
"The sword you reject."
"No matter what you call it I am not gay."
"The weapon in your hand you stupid loser."
"Oh, you mean this, why didn't you say so? You can't hold it you know, it is way too heavy for you." Naruto said as he leaned on it casually as the tip started to slide into the ground causing him to lean back as Sasuke took a swing at him. "Good timing, you would have hit the air if it weren't in the way." Naruto spoke casually as he was nearly parallel to the floor while still leaning on the guard of the blade.
"I will have that sword you retard." He spoke out.
"If you think you can lift it, try." Naruto spoke as he got up and off the sword, leaving it where it sat in the floor.
Trying with all his might, Sasuke couldn't even make it move an inch rather than Naruto, who simply kicked the edge causing it to spring up and into his hand. "It's happened before, learned an easy way to get it out for me after the tenth time, now I don't have to bend over." He said to their shocked looks as he placed the sword back in the holster. "Be happy that you don't have to deal with the original wielder of the sword, he would kill you for trying to steal what is rightfully owns." Naruto casually intoned as he walked out of the chambers.
"You demon, we didn't let you go yet." One of the council spoke before they found the blade sitting next to their heads.
"I don't like being called demon, just as you don't like being called a piece of shit and straight." Naruto said to the male councilor who was sucking up to the last Uchiha. "Good day." He spoke as he took the blade back and left the chambers.
