Chapter 1: The Origin of the Prince
Naruto the prince of Konoha - the strongest Kingdom of recent times - is a peculiar boy, despite being such an important person, he does not consider himself as such, instead of worrying about things of royalty like his older brothers Asuma Sarutobi and Konohamaru, Naruto felt free to do whatever he wanted, such as to do pranks or even arrange fights in the poorest places of the Kingdom - provoking annoyance in his father - he felt freer and happier, and also reminded him of where he came.
Despite being a prince, Naruto was not born of royalty like his other brothers, but of the gutter. The Prince never knew his real parents-probably because he had abandoned him as a child-and under these circumstances he grew up alone, despite having met some friends in his childhood, most of the time he was lonely.
But all that changed when one day he and his friend Sasuke Uchiha fled the Konoha ninjas for having - as Naruto told his friend - "borrowed" some apples from a market booth, the King of Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was watching this feat with much curiosity, after all, it is not anyone who can escape from their ninjas, even more a street child.
Although he made a good escape attempt, Naruto could not escape as easily as he had thought, since he was now surrounded by five Konoha ninjas, and already knew that it was a matter of time before he was completely taken, so Naruto turned worried to Sasuke and began to speak.
"Sasuke flee from here," Naruto demanded.
At that, the black-haired boy stared, unable to believe what his friend had said.
"I'm not going to leave you here alone, it was our idea to do this," Sasuke replied.
"I do not care, just get the hell out of here while you have chances, after all, you have a family to go back to." Seeing his friend's reaction, Naruto clenched his fists and continued. "Do not worry so much, I'll be fine."
Seeing that he could not change the idea of his blond friend, Sasuke shook his head and turned to keep running from the Konoha ninjas.
Noticing the boy's actions, the ninjas soon began chasing him again, but soon found himself being stopped by the blond-haired child.
"Hey kid, stop biting me, you jerk," he exclaimed loud enough to catch the attention of his fellow ninjas.
When they turned to see what had caused their companion's scream, they began to move toward the ninja and the blond brat when suddenly they heard a man's laugh on a horse on the other side of the market, stopping his actions.
"Hahahaha," the man laughed loudly. "I cannot believe my highly trained ninjas are having trouble catching two street kids."
"It's really hard to believe, maybe if you had agreed to give me the responsibility to train them, that kind of thing would never happen," said another man on a horse.
"Do not raise your hopes Danzou, we've already discussed about it," he exclaimed a little annoyed at having to hear this topic again from his advisor.
"My King, forgive us for this problem," said a ninja who was in charge of capturing the two boys. "But I must admit that these brats have a real talent for getting away," he continued, now looking at his ninja companion who was being bitten, blond-haired boy
"All right, Kakashi, I've seen everything from afar and I must say I'm really impressed by the boys' abilities, especially this blonde beast," said the now identified Hiruzen Sarutobi, the King of Konoha. "Hey kid, what's your name?" Said the king now looking at the blonde.
Naruto's eyes widened after he'd observed all that had just happened, and Naruto felt a jerk in his back, which he guessed was an incentive for him to start talking.
"My name is Naruto, my King," said the boy, who was now giving a strange form of reverence.
"Naruto, do you have any family?"
Hiruzen did not need to hear the boy's response, which now met with sad eyes and head lowered, after his question.
"Boy," exclaimed Hiruzen, throwing an apple at Naruto, who was soon caught by the boy. "Brother take the boy," Hiruzen ordered the other horse man - now identified as Danzou Sarutobi.
Danzou held out his hand to the boy, who soon caught him and carried him up the back of his horse. Following the King who was now heading towards the Royal Palace.
After what he saw the king adopted the boy Naruto, so that it was of his family, a boy without real blood and hopeless to the throne, but that day was much more than that, something that goes far beyond the comprehension, the day in that the boy of humble origin became the Prince of Konoha.
