Chapter 1: Part 1
The sound of footsteps echoed between the cave walls when someone walked with his heavy steps. Someone was tall and well-built, with a spiky red mane adorning his head. The long red-haired robe she wore fluttered slowly following the movements of her legs. One of his hands moved upwards, then scratched his hair lazily as he yawned wide.
[Boss, you're back!] A loud voice was heard welcoming him when he entered the cave room which was quite large. Crystal stones look pretty shimmering to decorate their home around the cave floor and walls.
The red-haired young man turned to the sound source, then yawned again after knowing who had invited him to speak. "Hmm ... where is the kid?" he asked.
The two small colors of different foxes shrieked back happily to welcome their master's return. Yuki, is a larger fox fur with white blue, with two tails behind his body, while the other one, Ruki, has dark blue hair and only has one tail.
[Naruto-sama is going to practice again as usual.] Yuki squealed in response, the two tails behind his body moved to match his good mood.Other people might only hear the screeching sound of a fox, in contrast to the red-haired young man who could speak directly normally with monsters.
"Again? Heh, the kid is very diligent." The red-haired young man said. "I'm sleepy, wake me up if the boy is back." He said, then changed his body to its original form. The well-built two-legged body was immediately replaced with a four-legged fox body, with thick red fur. Then from behind his body nine long, red feathers appeared. The fox's body which had only been two meters in size changed to increase in size and size to over ten meters. The giant fox walked casually towards its resting place in a deeper cave room to spend time sleeping.
[Fine, Kurama-dono!] The two little foxes squealed obediently before going out to let their master fall asleep.
Wussh!
A gust of wind quickly hit a young man who now moved quickly through thick trees. Her short blonde mane fluttered in the wind.
Wuussh! —Wuuuuussssh! —Wuuuuuushhhh! - ran fast very easily past several giant roots and twigs. He then glanced at the three monkey monsters that followed him behind.
The three monsters ran faster, no less chasing him until there were only a few meters of distance between them.
The young man ran jumping over the large root in front of him, then concentrated the chakra on his legs before— "Hup!" - he jumped and walked perpendicular to the top of the giant tree trunk that stood firm a few meters away.
The young man ran fast, smiling smugly as he glanced down to find the three monsters dumbly following him into the tree. With one kunai in each hand, he jumped. Turning his body back to float in the air. The monster was shocked when its prey suddenly vanished from view and was now right behind its body.
Grinning, the blond young man swung his arms around quickly and attacked one monster in front of him— Krassh! —Krassh! —Wush! - A red flame immediately blazed through the slash of the kunai until it burned the monster.
Regardless of the monsters' pain moans, still in the middle of the air, the young man turned his body back to the front, then set foot firmly on the monster's body he had just defeated. Using it as a foothold, he jumped forward, then pressed his foot against the tree trunk not far from him before darting down where two other monsters were also running up the tree to attack him.
SLASH!
He severely slashed one monster that shot towards him, then immediately turned his body to the side, avoiding the thin attack of the other monsters who swung sharp claws at him. The young man turned his body again, positioned himself to land with his legs. But not yet had time to stand firmly, a monster suddenly appeared from the side, he was forced to look down, then rolled on the ground forward several times to avoid the attack. Fourth monster. He forgot that there were four monsters chasing him earlier.
Stand immediately in place. He lunged again at the monster that attacked him just now. The mild attack just now wouldn't be able to defeat him who had been training in the forest for years.
Slash! —Slasshh! —Slasshh!
He slashed through the monster's hands and feet, then turned his body to slam his legs firmly and —BUAGH! - the monster slammed violently against a large tree trunk behind him.
The young man immediately jumped back when he saw the last remaining monster attack again from above. Taking a swing, the blond young man twisted the kunai in his hands, before putting it in a gun pocket.
He grinned. "Now we are alone, little apes." Eject him at the big monster in front of him. "How about we duel?" offered before crashing fast forward.
The monster snarled, banging its two big fists into its own chest like a raging gorilla, before he lunged forward and slammed his big fist at the blond young man in front of him.
The blond young man immediately deflected it with an arm, then —Buagh! - cast a punch under the monster's chin.
The hard hit immediately confused the monster's consciousness. He shook his head quickly, before attacking again. But the blond young man was faster, flinging another fist and— Bruakk! - about the hard mask that protects the monster's head to crack.
Giving no loopholes, the young man immediately attacked again, sending fists in succession to the monster's vital point in a landslide. The final attack, he pulled the monster's arm that was about to attack him, then exerted his strength to lift the monster's body and— BUAGH! - slammed the monster towards the tree trunk very hard.
The monster was deterred, his body slumped to the ground limp and unconscious.
"I win again, friend." Said the blond young man glanced at the four unconscious monsters around him. He grinned with satisfaction. His hands were patted clean the dust from his body.
After, the blond youth moved back through the forest. He sprinted past several large trees until finally there was a glimmer of light behind thick bushes. Without hesitation he ran past him, one hand reflexively covering his eyes to get used to the light that was quite blinding.
He blinked several times until he got used to it. Then walked forward to stare at the amazing view in front of him. A vast expanse of green and beautiful plastered beautifully, separated by a high cliff which is where it stands now. The vast green grass covered the cliffs.
The blonde youth walked to the most side of the cliff. Closing his eyes, and taking a deep breath to breathe in the cool air there. His hands were stretched wide before he deliberately dropped his body onto a stretch of grassy land behind him. Brugh!
The sapphire bead reappeared when he opened his eyes, staring straight at the blue sky that was covering him. His heartbeat was fast because the fight just now began to slow down relaxed. A cool breeze blew against him. Bringing sleepiness to his mind.
The blond youth closed his eyes again, then let himself fall asleep under his consciousness.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself lying in the middle of the forest. It was the shady leaves of the trees that he first saw, not the vast expanse of blue sky he had seen before. He blinked, rubbing his face which somehow felt so tired. Wincing found his palm so small.He got up to sit. Wincing will stiffen his body as if it has not been moved for a long time.
He turned his head, glancing at the landscape of dense trees around him. Then looked down, glancing at his small, very pale, tired body. Her long blonde hair looked dirty and messy, covering almost her entire back. The two cheeks marked with three distinct lines were covered with soil. He glanced again to the side, where a sacred sword made of gold lay right beside his hand.
Then, he remembered, when his mother ... his parents had been killed before his own eyes ...

Between now and past, he, in eleven years ...
Hosh! —Hosh! —Hosh! —Hosh!
He ran. The blonde boy ran as fast as he could through the trees in the forest. Trying to find a way out of the forest. At least. At least he must find someone, someone who can help him.
He must be fast. He must immediately seek help. He must be cool— Brugh!
His body fell forward when his foot carelessly tripped over a stone. He grimaced in pain, but immediately stood up and ran back.
His legs finally stopped when the sapphires found a village. Regardless of his gasping breath, he again ran into the village.
The village people immediately glanced at him in surprise, seeing him run blindly looking for something. The luxurious silk clothes he wore showed that he was clearly not from the lower classes, but the appearance of the dirty and dirty body all over him doubted people's minds to him.
The blonde boy who looked nine years old turned around looking for something — someone. When he finally found something he was looking for, he immediately ran quickly toward him.
"Fast!" he shouted hastily pulling the arm of a knight who was seen guarding the village gate. The knight glanced at him confusedly. "What do you want, kid?" he said, surprised at the boy who was almost out of breath from running.
"Fast!" the blond boy yelled, panting again. "You must hurry! Give up the troops, the king's palace is under attack!" the boy shouted in a panic.
Stunned, the young knight stared in confusion at the boy in front of him, before then he burst out laughing. "Boy, if you want to play, just invite your friends there! I'm working!" rejecting the knight pushed the boy's body away from him.
"W-what ?! I'm serious! You have to hurry to the palace and save father — the king and queen!" the boy shouted insistently, tugging at the knight's arm forcefully. A look of panic and fear lay clearly on his face.
The knight just laughed at him. "Get out of bed! I'm on duty! Just look for someone else to disturb you!" he said, then pushed the boy's body hard until he fell to the ground.
The blonde boy widened, then bent his lips as if holding back tears and anger. Snarling, he finally ran from that place, went to find another knight who wanted to help him. After asking here and there about where the knight's office is. He finally found it.
With broken breath he barged into the office regardless of the warning from the guards outside.
"Hey, boy! Stop there!" a knight shouted at him when he saw him run through suddenly.
"Let me go, damn it! I have to meet your leader!" The boy screamed struggling, trying to escape from the grip of a knight who had caught him.
"Don't mess with bad boys. Get out of here, this place isn't a playground!" The knight snapped, trying to drag him out of the knight's office.But the boy still insisted on entering.
"What's this? Stop bothering the little boy, Mizuki." Another knight who seemed to be more senior said while laughing at his junior.
"This kid suddenly came here. I'm trying to get past — GYAAARGGHH!" He gasped in pain as his arm was suddenly bitten very strongly by the blond boy. "A jerk, how dare you—"
The blonde boy immediately broke away when the knight named Mizuki was about to hit him. He ran then approached the knight who seemed to be more senior just now.
"You have to help me!" the blonde boy was almost desperate. "The kingdom is under attack!"
But the knight just stared at him confused, then chuckled tauntingly. "Boy, just play there with your peers. Don't disturb adults or knights like us."
The blonde boy widened again. "You have to believe me! The palace is under attack! Hurry and deploy all the troops to help the King and Queen! This is an order!" he shouted staring at some knights in front of him.
"Pfft — hahahaha your acting is very clever kid! What game are you doing ?! Palace attack? Do you want to say after that there are monster troops attacking the capital?" the knight laughed more and more, followed by several other knights in the room.
The boy turned red from the shame of being mixed with anger. "Sassy!" he snapped at the knights who didn't want to obey him and even embarrass him. "How dare you argue with me! This is an order! Hurry up and deploy your troops and go to the palace to stop the attack there!" he shouted angrily.
"Command? Gyahahaha—" The knight held his stomach because he laughed too much. "Who are you, huh? A prince from the king's palace ?!" he taunted with laughter.
The boy's face was getting red with anger. "I'm the crown prince of the Konoha Kingdom, Namikaze Naruto! Hurry up and do my orders right now!" he shouted angrily.
"Yeah? Then I'm King Honor Minato!" the Knight sneered with laughter. "Naruto-sama can't be a cute kid like you, let alone be in a place like this." Taunt it.
The boy's anger exploded, he lunged forward and hit the knight's body. "Low knight! How dare you argue with me! My father won't forgive this!" he shouted emotionally. Mizuki immediately grabbed her hand again and dragged her out.
"Yes, yes, just play there outside, boy!" Mizuki taunted him.
The boy kept struggling, even banging the knight who dragged him out of there. "You have to hear me, jerk!" he shouted almost desperately."YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY GO TO PALACE—!"
SLAM!
The knight's office door was slammed hard in front of his face. The boy was thrown out roughly. He widened, looking down at the wooden door in front of him. His hands were clenched tightly holding back anger, and his lips trembled with tears.
Unable to remain silent, he immediately ran again towards the village gate. Some people gasped and yelled at him as he ran through the rough bumping into anyone who was blocking his way. His legs ran desperately to go somewhere.
' I can't cry!'
His heart screamed sorrowfully.
' I must return to the palace immediately!'
Her eyes glinted, but her lips were bent so hard trying to keep the tears from breaking. He can't cry. He must do something. He must immediately return to the palace and do something.
' I have to go and save Tousan and Kaasan immediately!'
"'Palace?"
"Please tell me where to go to the palace!" The blonde boy looked expectantly at a merchant woman who was standing in the middle of the market. He tugged at the woman's clothes demanding an answer.
"Palace?" The woman still looked at him confused. "You mean the Konoha palace in the capital?" he then chuckled. "What are you asking for?"
"I have to get there soon! Please tell me the way!" The boy almost begged for despair.
The woman frowned in confusion at him. "Son, you better forget your intentions. I don't know why you want to go there. Well, many want to go there to see the king and queen directly. But, little children like you can't possibly go there alone."
"What do you mean?" The blonde boy now looked at him confused. "Why can't I go there?"
The woman smiled a little at him ... "Oh, isn't that clear. This village is located secluded on the northern border of Konoha. You have to travel hundreds of miles to get to the king's palace.
Eh?
The blonde boy stiffened stiffly at the statement from the woman.
Hundreds ... miles?
" Naruto ..."
" This will be my last chakra—" His father said hoarsely, he made other hand seals, after which he looked sadly at him who was inside the kekkai.
He is hundreds of miles from the palace ... from his house ...
" Forgive your tousan and kaasan because you can't accompany you more than this ..." whispered his father, his breath sounding heavy but the man forced himself to speak for the last time.
The blonde boy turned to the side. Menerawang far on the scenery outside the village gate.
" Listen ... the outside world is very hard."
Then he began to move his legs. Slow and doubtful. His gaze blankly looked forward. Then little by little, the movements of his legs began to change rapidly.
" Whatever happens out there, you can't be afraid."
And he started running. Run as fast as he can out of the village.
"... Stay alive and be strong, Naruto. Then when you're ready, go back to Konoha and save this kingdom."
The blonde boy ran without direction. Keep running as far as he can. He must return. He must return to the Palace. He can't keep quiet here.And let his parents, his kingdom, be attacked. No matter how far he has to travel, he must go back and save them!
BRUGH
Suddenly he fell hard to the ground. Sprained his legs. He grinned, his clothes getting smudged with the ground. His breath was disjointed.He then turned his body to lie on the ground, he did not know how many hours it had run. However, his body became very heavy when all the tiredness he had ignored since had fallen together into his body.
The boy couldn't move, lying helpless in the middle of the road. His gaze wandered far above the sky.
Test
Water?
Test, test, test
Ahh ... it's raining.
ZAAAAAAAAASSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH—!
Heavy bursts of the sky fell to flood the ground as well as his entire body.
"Ukh—"
Is it really rain?
The boy wiped his wet cheeks. Then wipe again and again and again. But the water continued to appear.
" Baka, why are you crying, Naruto?"
"Ukh-a-uhh—!"
" I'm glad you're fine ..." His father said with a smile that looked very forced. The pain was evident from his father's pale face. The blond man rubbed his son's head dearly.
He bit his lips very hard, but the effort could not stop the tears that continued to flow from his eyes. His cold sores were muffled by the rustling of the rain.
" Cough—!" He widened in shock, seeing his father standing in front of his body protecting him from the attack. The blond man coughed out blood. Three swords slammed into his chest. Blood flowed from the stab wound there.
The blonde boy shouted. Take out all his emotions in the rain.
" You have to stay alive ..."
At that time his father smiled. The widest smile he knew was the last time. The last thing he saw before bright light surrounded his body.
And he was moved. Through time and space until finally stranded hundreds of miles from the palace, it was very far from his father and mother ...
" Goodbye ... Naruto."
The hustle and bustle of the street sounded very noisy to his ears. Chat, jokes, yells and laughter, rustling here and there. The sun has soared high above the sky, emitting its glare to anyone who is on the surface of the earth. The light began to hit it. The closed eyelid was disturbed, until finally it began to open showing two sapphire beads that were out of focus.
The blonde boy finally woke up, then glanced at the market street in front of him half-consciously. The crowded scenery was immediately visible to his eyes. People passed by ignoring him as if he wasn't there.
How many days?
That's the question that first came out in his mind.
He looked over at the front. Only blank view. He sat quietly on a street corner, leaning against the wall of the small hallway.
Kruyuukkkk ~!
Squeezing his stomach, he ignored the hunger that felt again. Swallowing saliva, he became aware that his throat was very dry.
How many days?
He then stood up, walked lungily to the village road. He walked without direction. The only thing that occurred to him was that he had to keep walking to return to the capital.
The small child's laughter made him turn around. Boys are the same age as him. Excited laughter showing off his favorite ice cream to his parents. As if knowing was being watched, the little boy stopped laughing and turned to him. He frowned, and immediately invited his father and mother to leave.
The blonde boy was still silent, just staring blankly at the scene before he walked back.
How many days ... since he was stranded alone far from his house.
Since the palace was attacked and his parents ...
Not. They are still alive. They must still be alive.
That was what he kept thinking, walking uncertainly towards the direction he believed led him back to the capital. Regardless of the fatigue that had accumulated on his body, without caring for the hunger that began to strangle him. Even if he has to fall asleep on the street just to take a break.
After all, what can he do?
He is alone. Far from where he lived, he did not know anyone outside the Palace. Nobody believes it. Nobody wants to help him.
He who was once highly praised by many in the capital, served by so many servants at the Palace, now had to fight alone to survive.
Indeed ... what can he do as a child?
"IMPORTANT!"
A roaring shout suddenly rang out from the middle of the village.
"Important news! Quickly you all have to read it!"
Crowds of people immediately formed around the wall mounted in the middle of the village.
"This news just arrived this morning!"
Whispers were immediately heard here and there, with each person holding a newspaper. Shouts of disbelief, and shock is seen everywhere.
"What happened?!"
"How can this happen!"
"Impossible!"
"Very cruel!"
"Damn you traitor!"
"MAYN'T MAY BE OU-SAMA MINATO TO BE AWESOME ?!"
The blonde boy immediately gasped when he heard his father's name was called. He stared in confusion at the crowds of people who roared in the middle of the village. Shouts of disbelief protests were heard everywhere. But there are also those who are passionate about praising someone for being able to defeat the traitor.
Confused, the blonde boy immediately broke through the crowd to see what had happened. He almost fell when he finally made it past the crowd and arrived in front of the board.
Gasping for breath, he tried to read what news they were talking about. Immediately, the two sapphires widened in shock. His body froze at the news that was stuck on the board.
The tragic murder of all members of the kingdom.
The king who had been trusted was only a wolf in sheep's clothing!
Namikaze Minato killed all members of the kingdom, even the entire uchiha clan that was believed to be a guard knight. This murder turned out to have been planned since he was chosen as King of Konoha. Shimura danzo, Konoha's minister of trust, managed to unmask him and execute him on the spot.
Seeing his services, the council also recommended Danzo as the New King of the Konoha Kingdom. Godaime Ou-sama's coronation will take place two days from now.
Recorded on Day 13 of Month 9 of Year 211D
-Council Konoha.
Under the news, it was printed very clearly the face painting of Namikaze Minato, the King, no, the former King of the Konoha Kingdom, with X-shaped red streaks tarnishing the painting, under the picture was written black writing that read 'KING OF LEGAL!'
Besides the painting, another painting was also printed. Now a picture of a man with bandage covers half of his face. Under the painting, the capital letter clearly reads 'SHIMURA DANZO, SANG GODAIME OU-SAME KINGDOM OF KONOHA!'
BREEETTT!
The people who were reading the news were startled when the sheet of paper tacked on the wall board was suddenly pulled by a small child.
"Hey, wait, what kid are you doing ?!" a man tried to stop the blond boy who was tearing up the news paper full of emotion. The blonde boy even threw it on the ground, and stomped it hard.
"What are you doing, damn brat!" the man was angry, and grabbed the boy's long blonde hair.
The blonde boy growled, brushed his hand roughly. "THIS IS HAD!" he shouted angrily.
"THIS NEWS ARE MUCH EMPTY!" He exploded angrily. "MY FATHER IS NOT EVALUATION! IT IS THE RICH DANZO THAT HAS KILLED EVERYTHING!" The blonde boy growled, staring madly at everyone around him who looked at him in surprise.
"Oi, oi, what are you talking about kid! You just insulted the godaime ou-sama!" someone who seems to still be able to think of shouting at him.
"THE FUCKING MAN IS NOT GODAIME! MY FATHER IS THE KING OF THE KONOHA!" the blond boy gritted his teeth, then lunged forward clutching a man who yelled at him just now.
Riots soon ensued, the man growled, hitting the boy's face in annoyance. "What are you doing jerk!"
"Who is that kid ?!"
"Is he crazy ?!"
"Why suddenly shout like that ?!"
Whispers and whispers immediately filled the crowd, making it even more chaotic. Low views are directed at the blonde boy.
He shouted angrily, shouting at everyone who was there. Shout and hit anyone who tries to touch or stop it. He went berserk.
"Guard! Quickly call the knight here!" a woman shouted in terror at the sight of the boy.
"Anyone! Quickly stop the boy! Quickly catch the boy!"
"FUCKING! REMOVE ME!" The boy growled, three lines on both cheeks sharpened, and the fangs were pointed. He struggled, hitting the guards who tried to arrest him. "FREE!"
BAM! - A very strong jerk suddenly exploded around the blonde boy. The red chakra that surrounds it is like a fire grabbing. Nine golden tails suddenly appeared, moving wildly behind the blonde boy's body.
Everyone gasped at him.
The boy panted, glaring very sharply at whoever was there. His canines were grasped firmly, and his palms tightly clenched. The red chakra around the boy made anyone who was there afraid to approach.
"B-crazy boy!" A woman shouts in fear. "What are you doing stupid knights! Quickly catch the crazy boy!" he ordered several knights who had been summoned there.
"B-but the tail — d-he has nine tails ..." One of the knights said he didn't dare, seeing the tail position which was clearly higher than him. Only high class demons have many tails.
"Indeed, why! He's just a mad kid who goes berserk! Quickly catch before he hurt someone!" shouted the woman followed by another shout.
The blonde boy growled scaryly, before he finally turned and ran away from the place. The guards immediately chased him, but were unable to match the boy's speed.
The boy continued to run until it vanished from the view of the people.
Not far from the riots, a man stood looking there with a look of surprise and interest. He noticed from afar the characteristics of the rampaging blonde boy. Characteristics that are very familiar to him who often go to the palace in the capital. He then grinned slyly.
"Danzo-sama will be very happy to hear the news that Minato's children are still alive."
He then walked to go back to the capital. There is one important news that must be reported.
SLAM
A poster of the painting was clearly placed on the wallboard throughout the kingdom. The blonde boy widened. Staring at the shock of a poster of a face painting attached to almost every wall on the village road, with traits clearly recorded beside it.
Painting of a boy's face. Nine years old. With blonde hair extending to the back. Has a distinctive birthmark on both cheeks, which is three lines like a fox mustache. Wear a black orange silk kimono, with a spiral symbol on the back.
Underneath it is clearly written the words' PUTRA RAJA PENGHIANAT IS STILL LIVING! FOR ANYONE WHO REACHES LIFE OR DEAD WILL GET GOLD GIFTS '
Fugitive poster.
It was clearly displayed in front of his face. A fugitive poster with a picture of his face reflecting him. They already knew about his being alive, and now look for him as a fugitive.
Angry, the boy pulled out the poster in front of him and tore it furiously. He ran, tore every poster he found on the street, tore it without a trace.
"Psst, look at the kid ..."
A whisper was heard very clearly in his ear. He turned, looking stiffly at the people who whispered to see him. Degrading views. Whispers accuse. Everything is directed at him. They began to suspect his appearance.
"Oi, boy!" now a shout from a man called him. Two, not three men with muscular and spooky faces approached him. They looked at him in full investigation.
"Boy, show me your face!" The man said again approaching him.
Biting his lips, the blond boy felt trapped. People looked at him full of inquiry, filled with hungry eyes as if he was a treasure lying in the middle of the road.
Without fear, he turned to look at the man, glaring sharply. The rest of the posters in his hand were tightly packed by his fist.
"Oh, look! You're right! She's really similar!" another man tucked in happily, showing a poster he was holding, glancing back and forth the poster and the face of the blond boy in front of him.
"There's no mistaking it! That kid must be him! The son of the traitor king!" others began to say support. They moved closer to him. Whispers also sounded louder. They surrounded her.
"I never thought I could find it as soon as this!"
"This is my luck!"
"Did you say, the boy is mine! I saw it first!"
"What ?! I will get the gold!"
"Stupid. Who will get it fast." A man with the most muscular body compared to the others said loudly. He grinned, patting his fists as he walked over.
The blonde boy gasped as he unconsciously walked backwards to hit the wall behind him. Now he is trapped. Cornered by siege of people who want their heads.
His breathing was hunting, he looked tense at the people who were after him. Glancing around, he tried to find a blur.
Without warning, the blond boy broke through, colliding himself through the siege of the people. They were shocked, immediately shouted riot to chase the boy.
Run.
"Chase the boy!"
He must run away.
"Chase the little devil!"
He can't be caught.
"Don't let the traitor boy run away!"
BRUAKK
The boy ran frantically in terror, breaking through the small hallway. The trash cans there also fell apart falling apart by him. He ran as fast as possible from the pursuit of the people who saw him.
Sounds and shouts continued to work. The boy ran without direction, only trying his best to escape. Ignoring his fatigue, ignoring his hunger.No matter what happens, he can't be caught!
Whispered whispers answered each other. Rumors about the existence of the son of the former fourth king soon spread throughout. The knights of the kingdom were sent to find the blond boy alive or dead. Nor were there even a few people who wanted a gold prize by arresting the boy.
Days passed, he continued to run runaway continuously without stopping. The boy almost forgot how many days had passed.
"Thief!"
He immediately ran as fast as possible to escape.
"Catch the thief boy!"
Some knights who heard the shout immediately ran after the blond boy.
"Don't let the demon thief run away!"
But the boy is faster. He has even been pursued hundreds of times, now he is getting used to it and being smart. He ran through the crowded crowd, making anyone who chased him into trouble. After the people who chased after him began to lag behind, he immediately turned into a small hallway. Trace in and get rid of people.
" Hosh! —Hosh! —Hosh! —Hosh !" He leaned against the wall and slumped to the ground. His breath panted and sweat poured on his body.He took a deep breath and then exhaled. Then glanced at his hand which was holding tightly to something he had stolen.
A piece of bread.
Only a piece of bread, but he must be desperate to get it. There is no money so there is no food for him to survive. That's the condition now.He must get food to fill his stomach, no matter how he must steal in doing it.
His stomach immediately sounded starving seeing a piece of food. Without waiting anymore, he bit it greedily.
Zaaaaaaassssssssssssshhhhhhh!
Rain.
At times like this he hated his condition that had no place to live. He also sat huddled on the side of the road, only a canopy roof on the edge of someone's house he didn't know. His body was soaking wet. The small canopy where he sheltered was unable to dispel the rain of the wind which swept him hard. He hugged his body tightly, trying to get rid of the cold that made his body crawl.
"Huacih!" cold, he rubbed his itchy nose.
The road in front of it looks deserted, maybe because heavy rain is pouring down, making people lazy to leave the house. Menerawang, he again recalled how many days he had passed alone there. He may not stay long in a village. The fugitive poster of his face is still stuck everywhere, just a little he is careless, they will soon catch up to catch him.
"Araa, what are you doing there, kid?" The boy gasped in surprise when someone suddenly called out to him.
An old woman just came out of the house where she was sheltering. His face looks friendly, the woman smiles and approaches him sitting on the porch of the house.
"Are you okay?" The woman asked softly. Shocked was the boy's first response. Alarmed he looked at the woman. His body is getting ready to run away immediately. Don't want anyone to see his face.
Kruyuukkkk ~!
His stomach suddenly rang loudly. Rona red immediately filled her cheeks in embarrassment, added when she saw the old woman laughing small.
"You must be hungry? I just made soup. Do you want to go in and eat it with me?" bargain the woman gently.
The boy still hasn't moved, just looking suspiciously at him. No one has treated it this way before.
The woman seemed to understand when she then smiled. "Come on in, it's cold outside." He said kindly, then walked into his house and opened the door wide so the boy entered.
He was silent staring at the woman's departure. His stomach rang again when he smelled the delicious soup from the house. Swallowing saliva, he stood up and walked close to the door of the house nervously.
The old woman immediately smiled at him when she saw him standing in front of the door, then called him friendly and showed him a bowl of warm soup on the dining table.
He walked hesitantly. Glancing at the anxiety when he saw someone else at the dining table. An old man who also smiled at him. They must be married couples.
"Come here, eat this to warm your body." Invite the husband and wife kindly.
At that time, he felt that the soup was the most delicious soup he had ever eaten. At first he was hesitant to eat it, but as soon as he tasted it, saliva immediately gathered in his mouth and his stomach became noisy.
It was the first time he felt so fresh and full after all this time outside the palace. The husband and wife even invited him to take a warm bath.
"Oh, have you finished bathing? How are you feeling?" The old woman approached him when he saw him come out of the bathroom.
"Um ... thank you ..." he replied stiffly. He lowered his head to cover his red cheeks.
The woman smiled at him. "The rain is still very heavy outside. You can sleep here if you want." Friendly laugh.
"B-really?" The boy looked at him expectantly.
"Of course, you can sleep in that room." Reply the woman pointed to the room at the end.
A grin that he hadn't shown for a long time immediately widened on his lips. The boy nodded and thanked the woman again. He immediately ran into the room in question. A feeling of pleasure filled his heart. This is the first time anyone has done this good to him.
The room was small, there was a wall cabinet that he guessed had stored some futon mattresses in it. He hesitantly opened it, but stopped when he would take it. What if the woman forbids her from using futons? He was only allowed to sleep there, not necessarily allowed to use the futon.
Hesitated, he walked out of the room to ask the couple. He found them in the kitchen talking to each other. Just now he will make a sound to call them when ...
"Are you sure 'he' is that kid?" whispered the old woman to her husband.
"Right, you've seen the poster, right? The features are exactly the same! Long blonde hair and three lines on the cheeks. The clothes she wears are the same! There is a spiral sign there!" the husband said harder to convince his wife.
Eh?
The blonde boy immediately froze when he caught the point of their conversation. He hid behind a wall. His sensitive ears can easily catch the conversation between the married couple.
"I have reported it to the guard knight. They will come here in ten minutes. Aren't we very lucky?" the man chuckled happily. "I never thought that kid would take shelter in front of our house!"
"You're right, honey. Dirty brats are so stupid. Fortunately, he didn't realize that we were fishing for him here. I can't wait to receive his golden prize!" the woman who was supposed to be soft giggled happily.
"Hahaha now we only need to wait for the guards. The boy must have slept now, without knowing the fate that will befall him." The man is full of happiness.
Widened, the blond boy bit his lip. His hands clenched tightly. He should know. He should know that it would be like this. From the start they just pretended to be nice to him. Give him food and warm water, even telling him to sleep in their house so the guards can catch him easily.They only aim for the golden prize on his head. Not sincere help.
Brak! Brak! Brak!
A bang on the door jerked his body. The married couple immediately opened it. The gang of guards who stood at the door made him wide-eyed in horror. Immediately he turned around to find a way out. Whatever happens he cannot be caught.
He immediately ran quickly toward the window. His heart beat very scared. He could hear the footsteps of the guards who started walking closer to find him.
PRIVATE!
The glass window was shattered by his actions. He opened it forcefully. His body trembled with fear. As soon as possible he jumped over the window and ran out of there. Noises from inside the house immediately sounded a sign that they already knew who ran away.
"Hurry up and chase!"
"Don't let the boy run away!"
Shouts were immediately heard from the guard. The boy ran as fast as possible, ignoring the heavy rain that was still pouring down.
The sky has turned black, the road has become dark and bristling. Plus the rain that makes his eyes blur. His feet accidentally slipped when he ran to the corner. Even his previously clean body was full of mud.
"There he is! Hurry and catch it!" the sound of shouting again approached. One of the guards had found it.
He grimaced as he felt his legs dislocate. Ignoring him he ran again.
"Chase the little devil!"
The dark road blurred. He ran without direction, only trying his best to escape the pursuit of the guards.
"Don't let him run away!"
The shouts were increasingly heard. His breath was panting. But he still forced himself to run away. He could hear the guards chasing him from any direction behind him. But all he can do is run.
"Quickly kill the boy!"
Not! Stop! Do not come close. Don't approach it. Please let it go. He doesn't want to run anymore.
"Catch him!"
Stop it
"Don't let the traitor boy run away!"
Please stop it! Why do they keep chasing him ?! Why do they want to kill him ?! He is innocent! He never made a mistake. But why did they keep chasing him ?!
"The king wants him dead! Quickly arrest him and kill the demon boy!"
WHY?!
The boy shouted. Run blindly by hugging the sword of his precious father. His lips were bent, tears that flowed immediately erased with a splash of rain. His body was drenched.
His legs have started to beat. He tried to hide, but the guard was too much and immediately found him. He then ran again. Not only one or two times, he slipped down on a slippery road. He glanced back, seeing how many guards were chasing him now.
Not wanting to be caught, he also mobilized all his strength so he could run faster. His eyes glanced here and there looking for blurred cracks or hiding places.
"Hurry up and chase!"
' No! Stop chasing me! ' he shouted in his heart. Stop following it. He was unable to run.
Why?
"There! Catch the boy!"
Why isn't there one person on his side?
"Hah — hah — hah—!" Panting, he was knocked down to the muddy ground.
After hours of trying to escape, he finally managed to escape the pursuit of the guards. Without energy he leaned on the wall. A small and dark hallway is now a hiding place. He doesn't know where his position is now. What he did before was just running as hard as he could to run away, not caring about the direction he was taking.
The rain was still pouring heavily, but he had ignored it. His body was soaked and full of mud. All he can do now is wait and hide until tomorrow morning. All his energy has been drained now.
The boy breathed a sigh of relief as the chants of the chase had begun to move away from him. That means it's safe from the pursuit now. Exhale exhausted, he sat there quietly.
Then something caught by his eyes. Sticked to the wall where it is leaning. A poster. Especially if it's not his fugitive poster.
He also pulled out the poster roughly. His teeth were firmly grasped. He was about to tear him full of anger when he thought of something. He saw the face painting on the poster. Exactly the same as the features of his face. Then glancing around, walked toward a window when he found it.
The image reflected in the glass immediately made him gloomy. Her blond hair was soaked in a mess, but it still shone beautifully. He also became reminded of the times when his mother always praised the beauty of her long hair. Since then he never cut it. Because her mother will always praise and comb her hair gently.
But now...
He looked at the poster with a sad look. Long blonde hair is clearly displayed there. The blond hair that he had always been proud of is now the thing that makes it so easy to find.
Biting his lips, he pulled his golden sword. Then reveal the long hair with one hand, and with one swing - KRASS!
The beautiful blonde strands fell to the ground. Now leaving only short blonde hair that is messy. He cut it as short as possible without hesitation. Smiling sadly while staring at his reflection in the glass.
He then took off his silk kimono. The only thick cloth that has warmed it until now. He saw the symbol of the Namikaze clan which was mounted stoutly on the back of his kimono. Heavily, he tore up the emblem until it could not be recognized before throwing it into the trash.
His clothes are now only left with a thin black shirt that he uses as an inner kimono and worn black pants.
Then the last ...
He touched doubtfully the birthmark on his cheek. Permanent sign that he can get from birth. He can't do anything to eliminate it. Glancing around he looked for something.
Mud is the last choice. He dirtyed his cheeks, as much as possible disguising three pairs of typical lines there.
Finished, he tore the poster hatefully. He glanced back at the glass in front of him. His jaw tightened, his lips forming a very flat line.
He stared sharply at his reflection behind the glass. With this, no one will be able to recognize it.
"From now on ... Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto is dead." Said the blonde boy coldly.
Right.From now on he is nobody. Not a crown prince, or a prince who is a fugitive.
Now he is only a boy named Naruto.
"Thief!"
Naruto ran away from the guard. He slipped cleverly into the crowd, making the guards who chased him into trouble. Arriving at the corner, he immediately turned, then entered a small hallway.
"There he is!" shouts were heard again along the footsteps of the guards who were chasing him.
Clucking, he immediately climbed the wall at the end of the hallway. Climbing it so easily as if you've done it many times. He jumped over a pile of trash cans. After being on the wall, he quickly knocked down the pile of garbage cans. The guards gasped in surprise. The road in the hallway was immediately covered by garbage that piled up and even dropped the guards who did not have time to dodge.
Grinning, the blonde boy braved his middle finger bravely. "Ha! Feel that idiot! You won't be able to catch me!" he mocked disdainfully, not forgetting to stick out his tongue to his opponent. With one final blow he jumped down from the wall to the opposite side of the hallway. Then walk away.
Dirogohnya shabby bag that he brought - which of course was stolen - to issue the stolen this time. Several pieces of bread and fruit.
"This will be enough for one or two days ..." he muttered quite happily.
He casually took an apple from his bag, then bit it hungry.
"Oi, you're there! Stop!" a shout suddenly called him from a distance.
Naruto stopped his steps, glancing sarcastically at the three boys who were bigger than him. From his appearance, they were clearly a few years older than him.
"Leave everything you have!" orders a child who stands in the middle with pride. From his style indicates he is the leader of his friends.
Naruto did not answer, only glared at the three men.
"What are you waiting for! Hurry up and submit! This is our territory! You have to pay us if you want to pass here!" the leader's arrogant command, his bald hair was crested, his body was tall and tall.
"Then?"Naruto snubbed the three children who claimed to be thugs there. "I have no obligation to obey a cowardly child like you."
"W-Did you say ?!" The bald boy growled irritably.
"That's right, Cut. You spoiled spoiled coward ~! You don't even dare to fight a nine-year-old boy like me alone ~!" Naruto teased stuck out his tongue.
"B-jerk!" The bald boy exploded angrily. He lunged forward and slammed his fist at Naruto.
Nimbly, the blond boy dodged easily. Her training since childhood has been embedded in her body. He stuck out his tongue and pulled the skin under his eyes mockingly. "Not hit ~!" led it.
"Damn brat!" Two other thugs who had been silent were angry and attacked together.
But Naruto can avoid it easily. He jumped to the side, when the bald boy punched his face again. Then as a bonus, he punched back and— No ! —About the bald cheeks. "Feel it, damn it!" his grin grinned.
"B-jerk!" the bald boy winced in pain. "Hold him!" he ordered the two friends.
"H-huh ?!" Naruto gasped in surprise when his body and legs were now tightly locked by two people from the side and back. "Wait, this is cheating!" his protest was upset.
"Ha! Now you won't be able to run away, damn it!" the bald boy sneered cunningly. Violently, he threw his fist at Naruto's cheek— Buagh!
"Gyaarrgh! Boss why did you hit me ?!" one of the children clutching Naruto's body from behind screamed in pain.
Naruto extended his tongue casually. He managed to avoid the face's punch easily. Just because his body is held doesn't mean his head can't move.
"S-shit!" the bald boy punched again. But as before, Naruto swiftly turned his head to the side to avoid the fist, which ended up facing his friend's face again.
"Stop moving jerk!" growled the bald boy.
"Don't joke! I don't want to be hit!" Naruto's protests were disparaging.
"Grrah! I'll beat your body so soon!" the bald boy growled angrily when he failed to punch the blonde boy's face, then cast his fist on Naruto's stomach. He grinned with satisfaction because he was sure his punch would now succeed, given Naruto's entire body was locked.
"W-Wait! Damn!" Naruto widened his eyes. "Don't underestimate me, jerk!" He shouted, exerting all his strength forward, then— Wush! — Raised a body that gripped it from behind and— really! - slam it forward.
"Gyarrh!" the slammed child grimaced in pain.
Naruto immediately awakened his body after successfully escaping from the grip.
The other child who had been holding the blonde boy's feet gasped in surprise, and released his grip due to the slam. He looked in horror at the boy who turned out to be very strong in front of him. Glancing, he caught the glare of the golden field mounted on the blonde's back.
"B-jerk!" the boy lunged forward and pulled the sword from the scabbard.
Naruto, startled, immediately turned to look at him. But the boy had swung the sword at him and—
BAM!
A hot pound suddenly appeared from the direction of the blonde. The child was forced to fall backwards. He widened in horror and immediately brandished his sword held in front with fear.
"GRRR!"Naruto growled angrily, his celestial eyes changed to bright red, three lines on his cheeks thickened, and his fingernails tapered. In the back, nine of his tails were angered. The red chakra aura grabs the heat.
"Don't touch the sword!" Naruto hissed hatefully.
"Don't go close!" the three children curled in fear, looking in horror at the nine-tailed boy in front of them.
"Return my sword." Naruto hissed sharply. He grabbed the closest child, then slammed it hard against the wall.
The other two children widened, immediately moved backwards to run away, but their bodies trembled in fear. The golden sword fell down from the boy's grasp. He tried to stand up and run away. But Naruto immediately lunged forward and attacked him.
"G-gyaarrghh!"
BUAGH!
The three children lay unconscious by his tantrums. Naruto growled hatefully at the bodies of the three children who bothered him earlier. He then walked towards where his sword was dropped. He took the sword, then wiped it with a cloth.
"Sorry for dropping you ..." he muttered with a gloomy look, as if the sword was as valuable as his life. Sighing, he put the sword back into the scabbard. Then restore his strength. The nine tails disappeared again. His body became normal as before.
His gaze looked up into the sky when he remembered something. The color that has darkened indicates the night will arrive soon. He then reached into his bag to take out something. Booklets and pens. He opened the book on the front page, where it was filled with a few strokes, then turned it over to the blank page the last time he wrote.
He pointed his pen on the white paper, then formed a line next to the other line. Then glance at the other lines that have been recorded there and start counting them.
"Hmmm ... 78 ..." he murmured. "It's been 78 days since then ..." Since he discarded his name, and decided to survive whatever happens ...
... until he can fulfill his promise to the father.
Psst — ps — psst
The whispers of the village crowd were heard here and there. Naruto looked confused at the condition of the village that was more noisy than usual. They gossip each other here and there as if something other than usual is happening. Intrigued, he walked over to one of the traders in the market who was also gossiping. He pulled a red scarf — which was stolen — that he used up to cover half of his face.
"Hey, uncle." Call him to a fruit trader who is arranging his merchandise. "Is something happening? Everyone is more noisy than usual. What are they talking about?" he asked curiously.
"Oh, about that, hmmm ..." the uncle thought thoughtfully rubbing his chin. "He said someone from the palace would come through this village."
"from the capital's palace?" Naruto said curiously.
"Yes, yeah, I don't know who, he said he was an important person. Maybe the king himself hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahaha hahahahaha Joked the old man laughed.
'Palace ... that means there will be many guards deployed here.' Think the blond boy covered three pairs of lines on his cheeks with a scarf.
True as rumored, a few hours after the gossip spread, a luxurious horse-drawn carriage accompanied by countless guards passed through the village. The residents immediately left the road to let the train pass. They whispered to each other and peered curiously from the gap in the small carriage window to see who was sitting in it. Seeing the many guard knights accompanying, whoever was on the train must be a very important person.
Naruto slipped into the crowd, glancing at the train with alarm. His hair and half of his face covered with a scarf, leaving only a gap in the eyes. He watched the guards there, then widened his eyes when he realized something.
White mask.
Some knights there used white porcelain masks, exactly as he remembered that night, when his father and mother ...
Not.
Enormous memories of how his parents were killed imagined in his head.
"No way ..." he whispered to someone.
The image of an old man who laughed cruelly when he killed his father and mother.
There is no way the person inside is ...
"ARRGGH!" The blonde boy suddenly ran crashing in front of the train.
The guards there were also startled when suddenly there was a little boy who jumped onto the horse carriage. Riots soon ensued, the guards immediately shouted at each other and approached to see what was happening.
"DANZO BRENGSEK!" Naruto growled hatefully, breaking into the door of the train angrily and brandishing his sword to attack anyone inside.
But a guard managed to stop him. His face was hit hard, so he fell from the train and slammed to the ground. His sword fell to the ground with his body.
"Damn boy! What do you think you're doing huh ?!" The guard scoffed at him.
"Noisy! I have to kill him!" Naruto shouted angrily, then ran to the train again, but the other guards hit him again. Then gripping her hair and body so she doesn't move.
"Damn kid! Don't mess with kids!" The guard kicked the blonde boy's head mercilessly.
Blood came out of the skin in his torn cheeks. Naruto struggled hard, trying to escape from gripping the guards and lunging forward again. But another kick returned to his body.
"Noisy kid!" the guard shouted angrily.
"What happened?"a low voice from a man was heard from inside the train. A large-bodied man wearing a face helmet similar to a respirator dropped out of his train throne.
"Y-Your Majesty ..."
Naruto widened when he found the man apparently was not Danzo as he thought.
"Who is this kid? How dare you interfere with my trip?" the man looked at him sarcastically.
"P-forgive us Hanzo-sama. We will take care of it soon." One of the guards looked down in terror.
"Wait, your face ..." The man who was the leader of the Kingdom of Ame approached the blond boy in front of him. "Show his face!" he ordered the guards.
Naruto gasped as the scarf covering his face was suddenly forced. Three distinctive lines on his cheeks are also clearly visible.
Hanzo widened his eyes when he felt he had seen the sign before. "You..."
"Grrrhh!" Naruto gritted his teeth in anger, without allowing anyone there to act and realize his identity. He struggled hard and bit the guard's arm that gripped him mercilessly. The guard screamed in pain and accidentally let go. Naruto immediately took the opportunity to be free, he took his fallen sword quickly before running away from there.
"Tung—!" The guards there gasped in surprise, and immediately ran after the boy.
"H-hanzo-sama, what should we do?" asked one of the guards there.
"Catch him. I want to know who the boy really is." He ordered before the man returned to the train.
"Kyaa!"
"Hey, stop!"
Shouts and insults were directed at him as Naruto ran blindly avoiding the pursuit of the guards, regardless of anyone - whatever he hit.
"Chase him!" one of the guards who chased him shouted at him.
Smashing his teeth, Naruto accelerated his escape out of the village. He ran towards the forest when he saw it from a distance. His footsteps stopped when he arrived in front of the forest. He became hesitant for a moment. From the outside the forest looks different from the forest which he usually sees. The trees there look very large and even giant. There was a mysterious gripping air that he felt from the direction of the forest.
Still breathing hard, he looked back. The guards ran closer to him. Only a few meters left, they will soon reach it. He looked around but did not find a way to escape other than the forest.
Biting his lips, he rushed into the forest quickly, ignoring his instincts that forbade him to enter there.
"B-stop!" one of the guards stopped running and his friends.
"W-What should we do? The boy goes in there!" one of his friends replied.
"W-We can't possibly catch up! The forest is too dangerous!" another guard commented.
"B-but what about Hanzo-sama ?! He will punish us if we don't catch him!"
"That's the Forbidden Forest! There are many wild and dangerous monsters in there! I'm still not dead, damn it!" one of the guards voiced his disapproval.
"That's right! Nobody managed to survive after entering there! That brat must also have been eaten by monsters there!"
"We just go back! I don't want to go in there and get attacked by Mosnter!" said one of the guards shuddering in horror.
"W-Let's just say the boy is dead attacked by monsters! Let's go back!" his suggestion.
"Really, let's just go back!"
"Hah — hah — hah—!" panting, Naruto slowed down. He glanced around with alarm. The guards were like they hadn't chased him anymore. But somehow he could not breathe calmly after entering the forest.
"U-uwaaa!" he screamed in fear as he heard rustling from the direction of the trees. His hand raised his sword forward preparing to attack anyone.
I didn't — crooked — crooked— the chirping of birds was heard when several birds were seen flying from their perches on the branches of trees.
"B-bird—?" he swallowed ludan. "N-of course it's just a bird hahahah—" his laugh clumsily tried to shake off fear. But he again swallowed nervously.
"Damn, why is this forest so scary ..." he said stiffly.
He gripped the handle of his sword tighter, but did not put it back into the scabbard on his back. Afraid something will happen suddenly.
Without aim, Naruto wandered through the forest. Occasionally flinched in surprise when he heard a sudden rumble of trees or bushes.
After a few minutes of walking, he decided to sit down to rest. The blonde boy leaned against one of the giant roots and exhaled tired. He glanced at the view of the forest around him. The atmosphere there was actually quite shady and cool, but for some reason there was a tense air that made him feel uncomfortable. Especially if you see the size of plants and trees in the forest. He can't even see the end.
Test
"Ng?"
Test. Test. Test
"What is this?" his forehead wrinkled when something wet suddenly dripped on his face. He rubbed it, but from the other droplets appeared. Sniffing it, he immediately put on his face to vomit when he smelled bad smell like someone's breath who never brushed his teeth. He also wiped it with his black shirt, then glanced up curiously where the droplets actually came from.
And the two sapphires immediately swelled when they saw—
"GYAARGHH!" He gasped in surprise and jumped back a few steps, his legs even tripping and falling to the ground.
"Mm-mo-monster!" he screamed in fear, his hands pointing trembling to the front where the creepy creature was the origin of the smell drops, which turned out to be saliva.
The creature stood three meters high, with fangs extending sharply under the neck. His body is shaped like a wolf, but has sharp horns and a snake-bodied tail.
The monster growled, saliva dripped from its mouth which was not closed due to long fangs. He walked intimidating towards the blond boy in front of him.
Sipping spit, he moved back with trembling. If in a different case where he was still in training, he would jump excited because he could finally fight his first monster, which of course would be accompanied by Itachi. But now the situation is very different. Maybe it's really the first monster he saw in his life, but if alone like this ...
Gulp — It's like a heavy lump in his throat. He widened when the monster suddenly ran over to it.
"T-wait! Gyaaarggh!" Frightened, his body reflexively jumped to his feet avoiding the sharp bite of the monster. Without thinking he immediately fled as fast as he could. "S-SIAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL!
The monster immediately growled and chased after him. Without taking time immediately immediately eliminates distance from its prey. He also butted hard at the boy.
"GAHK!" Naruto grimaced in pain. His body was slammed hard against the ground and even sounded 'cracked'. One of the two ribs must have just been destroyed. He gritted his teeth in pain, then forced himself to get up and run again, but not as fast as before.
His body finally fell helplessly to the ground when he arrived in front of the cave. He coughed out blood. He glanced at the creepy monster who walked slowly approaching him. His condition is really like prey ready to eat.
"Cough—!" he whinnyed in pain, then a small giggle laughed at himself.
' Will I die here?' he thought sadly. His gaze began to blur, his entire body ached. His breath is too tight.
' Looks like I'm going to die here ...' he thought again smiling darkly. Even warm water had flowed from the corner of his eye.
His eyes were dark. He stared at the monster walking toward him. A few steps from his place, the monster suddenly stopped, then looked up like he was looking at something behind the boy's body. One second later the monster ran away like he was aware of something frightening.
Naruto was unable to respond or glance back to see what the monster had seen. The last thing he saw was two black and white fox tails before his whole vision darkened.
to be continued in part two ...
