Summary: (AU) What if Naruto had the power to back up that mouth of his. This fanfic explores this possibility. Soon after the sealing of Kyuubi to give Naruto a good life free from the hate and prejudice of being a Jinchuuriki the 4th Hokage gives Jiraiya Naruto so he can raise him to be powerful enough to take care of himself.
I do not own Naruto.
The battle was going badly and everyone knew it. At this rate if nothing was done the Hidden Village of the Leaf Konoha would be no more. The best shinobi in the village had gathered but their best efforts simply enraged the nine-tailed fox demon (Kyuubi). Jutsu's which were made to kill human beings were having no effect on a being with this insane amount of chakra. The landscape had changed dramatically during this battle and in the middle of the huge forest there was a sizable crater of barren land littered with the corpses of Konoha shinobi.
The 4th and 3rd Hokage surveyed the battle, no make that massacre as none of the wars they had lived thru had been anything like this. Although the village had tried their best to repel the demon the end result was that many shinobi had died without damaging the demon at all.
"This is bad Sandaime we both used our summons and neither of them were able to stop that thing" Yondaime said as he leaned on tree.
"True but at least it gave the medic nins a chance to recover the wounded" Sarutobi replied. He dug into his pouch and retrieved 2 food pellets and gave one to the young Hokage.
Yondaime took the food pellet and swallowed it quickly feeling the effects as the charka he had lost was replenished.
"We have to seal the Kyuubi Sandaime, and unfortunately you know what that means" Yondaime grimaced as he saw another shinobi squad destroyed as they tried to use an earth jutsu to slow down the fox demon's movements.
"Another Jinchuuriki will be made and some poor child will have to suffer the fate of being trapped with that being for all of their life" Sarutobi replied as he watched in horror as 2 squads of Jounin were easily tossed into the sky only to be eaten by the nine-tailed fox demon.
Yondaime gathered his chakra to perform the sealing ritual and instructed one of the Jounin who reported to him. 'We have no choice if we don't do this the village will be destroyed and the peace that we achieved thru the last few wars will be lost. I am going to use the seal that I just showed you recently."
Sarutobi gasped and looked unbelievably at his counterpart. "Are you crazy that seal jutsu you showed me requires your life as a sacrifice! The leaf still needs you we will use another sealing jutsu to take care of that fox demon."
"No Sandaime we cannot. I have seen what happened to the other Jinchuuriki which the other villages made. They are destined to go mad. The sealing is imperfect as the demon's can actively attack the hosts mind." Yondaime explained.
"We need a method that protects the host from the demon and also allows the host to tap into the demon's power when necessary. Using that sealing jutsu is the only choice as the Kyuubi is one of the most powerful demons that have roamed the earth a being of his magnitude cannot be sealed without a high level seal." Yondaime continued.
Sarutobi sighed. As always Yondaime was right he wondered at times like this how someone so young had not only had great power but also the foresight in how to use it. Unlike his own student that could not distinguish between power and skill.
"I will miss you Yondaime in the days to come taking care of the village will be harder without your help." Sarutobi said as he felt the tears well up in him.
"Well at least there will be a Konoha to protect." Yondaime replied as the Jounin returned with a young baby swaddled in clothes. "When the sealing is done give this child to my old sensei he will know what to do"
Sarutobi gasped in shock at what Yondaime was suggesting "Give him to Jiraiya that perverted hermit. Are you crazy the kid will grow up to be just as perverted as him!" Why not let Konoha raise him"
"No I have seen what happens to Jinchuuriki when they are raised within the village that tried to seal them. The village resents the Jinchuuriki and treats them like the demons that are sealed within them." Yondaime explained as he squinted to avoid the dust that had been raised up by one of the Kyuubi's tails smashing into the earth.
"Growing up with Jiraiya will allow him to grow up carefree and without any hate from his heritage. Jiraiya will be able to teach him how to enjoy life." The young Hokage smiled as he remembered what Jiraiya believed was the proper way to enjoy life.
"The child needs to be strong to be able to defend himself against those that would do him harm. As Hokages we do not have much time to teach but Jiraiya does have the time that we do not. I also hope that raising a young boy will mature my old sensei a little. Also in the end if the child ever becomes a threat to the village Jiraiya will be able to do what needs to be done" Yondaime said as he placed the first seal on the crying child.
"Are you sure about this Yondaime"
"Yes this is for the best. My only regret is that I will not be there to see him grow up"
"Then let me perform the seal you are younger and could live a full life as Hokage in Konoha."
"No offence Sandaime but I don't believe that you have the required strength and skill in this jutsu to seal a being of such power"
Sarutobi swore as he realized that the young Hokage was right. Although they were equally skilled when it came to chakra reserves the Yondaime had more than he did. It was a peculiar trait of all that were in his clan.
"Well then let's begin the sealing of the nine tailed fox demon Kyuubi. The legends they tell of this had better be great Sandaime or my ghost will come back to haunt you" Yondaime smiled as he leapt off the treetops and charged towards the demon.
"The leaf will never again see such a great shinobi of his caliber" Sarutobi sighed as he knew the losses that they suffered today would hurt the leaf severely.
"I am too old to be outliving the youth of this village"
With that thought the third Hokage of Konoha leapt from his treetop position and joined the ongoing fight.
12 years later
Uchiha Sasuke stared outside of the classroom window at the clouds in the sky. In the background the various newly appointed Genin chattered nosily about their new status as Konoha Genin. The wooden classroom echoed with academy students boasting of how they aced their academy exam and how they would quickly rise in the ranks of shinobi in Konoha.
"Idiots" Sasuke thought.
To be happy just because they had passed the Academy exam, that exam was only there to see if the Academy students were proficient in basic shinobi techniques, such as Bunshin no Jutsu. All of the techniques that were taught in the Academy Sasuke had been taught already by his father. If his brother hadn't killed his family he would probably be even stronger now that he was.
At the thought of his brother Sasuke swore under his breath and slammed his fist hard into the table. Damn if it weren't for his brother he would be able to laugh as carefree as these idiots. He needed to get stronger to learn as much as he could from his Jounin sensei and gain a much power as he needed to kill his brother.
"That Bastard probably exterminated the clan so I could never get as good as him" he thought.
"Just you wait dear brother I will learn as much as I can from these carefree idiots and come free you from your guilt ridden life"
"Ano Sasuke-sama are you ok?"
Sasuke turned around and looked up to see Haruno Sakura looking on at him with eyes brimming with adoration. She offered Sasuke a napkin whilst her other hand was pushing her one time best friend and now rival Yamanaka Ino away from her. He turned his head and looked back into the clouds.
"What a waste" he thought. I have to put up with idiots like these everyday. "None of them take being a shinobi seriously and those who do have no talent to become one. "
Oh well the Academy exam had one good point it showed him the efforts of all his solitary training. He was ranked the number one rookie within the Academy. A smirk appeared on his Sasuke's face as he silently compared how much stronger he was than the other Genin in the room. He might even be at the Chunin level he thought and if he could just learn some new Jutsu and increase his chakra level he would be able to kill Uchiha Itachi.
The classroom door opened and Sasuke turned to see his academy teacher Umuino Iruka walk into the room shaking his head. The Chunin instructor looked distraught as if something had just seen something unbelievable.
"Class I would like to introduce you to a last minute transfer entry into the Genin graduates, Uzumaki Naruto "
"This is interesting I wonder if the transfer student is any good" Sasuke thought as he looked intently to size up the new Genin.
A puff of smoke appeared and two blonde boys in an orange jumpsuit appeared holding up a sign saying Fantastic. Several more puffs of smoke appeared and the signs the boys held said Handsome, Lovable, Sweet Cute. One final copy of the young boy appeared with a sign waving around which proudly said Single!
"Bunshin no jutsu" Sasuke thought "and this many. Well he is flashy I wonder if he is any good. "
Suddenly more clones appeared playing music and the young boy spoke killing all hope Sasuke had that he might be a worthy rival.
"The Youngest Bachelor in Konoha…………" Naruto pronounced
"Because you just came into the village you idiot." Sasuke thought
"Good looking handsome lovable sweet cute and could you believe it I'm also single girls"
"I can't believe an idiot like that passed the exam, if they are letting idiots like that in then maybe becoming a Konoha Shinobi isn't worthwhile" Sasuke thought.
"With the knowledge of the inner workings of tons of Justus and the power to perform feats of marvel I come to you beautiful roses of Konoha to offer my skills as teacher, fellow shinobi and lover to those few lucky ladies"
At that point several girls in the audience blushed bright red they had just began to think about such things. Most boys in the Academy had not begun to notice girls and it was frustrating to some of the girls especially to those in the Uchiha fan club.
Iruka had enough and he promptly clocked Naruto and his Bunshin's disappeared.
"Naruto find a seat and sit down. Also please refrain from any of your shenanigans while you are in my class."
"Sure thing Iruka-sensei" Naruto smiled "But there is one thing I have to take care of first before I sit down. "
There was a puff of smoke and more of Naruto's clones appeared this time each had a rose in their hand and were kneeling in front of one of the girls in class.
"This rose pales in comparison to your beauty"
"Would you do me the honor of bearing my children so that the mighty Uzumaki clan can be resurrected?"
Suddenly Naruto's clones were slapped by the girls in the class and they ended up in a mangled heap in front of Iruka. Only one clone had escaped punishment and that was the one which had proposed to Hyuuga Hinata. Although Hinata was a bit embarrassed she liked his bold approach of Naruto's who was so unlike her. Since Hinata would not say anything Ino smacked the clone away from her.
"Naruto I don't understand you" Iruka sighed and turned around to face the class.
"Hurry up and dispel your Kage Bunshin no jutsu Naruto I have to announce the new Genin Teams."
The Naruto clones smiled and disappeared into a cloud of smoke. Naruto got up and went to sit next to Hinata and the young Hyuuga heir blushed as the boy told her raunchy jokes.
"That idiot can perform a Jounin level jutsu like the Kage Bunshin?" Sasuke thought as he quietly sat in his seat brooding.
"That technique requires allot of chakra to perform and can easily drain a shinobi. It's not taught at all in the Academy as no one has the chakra level to perform it. To perform such a technique without the proper chakra can lead to death."
"Most Chunin's cannot perform that technique and not only did pull all the technique flawlessly he also made several versions of himself. Who is this guy?"
Naruto idly chatted with Hinata making her blush at the things he told her while he also looked down to the third row where Sasuke sat.
"So that's him huh the sole survivor of the Uchiha clan, I wonder what Orochimaru's sees in so much. Oh well I guess I will find out soon enough." Naruto thought.
"Uzumaki Naruto"
"Yes Iruka-Sensei"
"You're in Team 7 with Uchiha Sasuke & Haruno Sakura."
"Nani… Iruka-sensei I want to be on a team with Hinata-chan she's agreed to bear my children and I need to protect her"
Hinata blushed a deep red as this was the first time that anybody had noticed her so much. She looked up at Naruto and saw that he wasn't lying. Years of using her Byakugan had allowed her to become pretty adept at telling when people lied. The bad thing is that had also helped to hold her back as she knew when people were giving her false praise or did not believe the things they said about her.
"Naruto come here you idiot" Sakura intoned as she appeared monster like behind him.
With a swift blow to the head she dragged Naruto back to the seat where Sasuke sat whilst Naruto cried for his sweet Hinata-chan and promised her that as soon as he escaped from the monster's clutches he would visit her.
Sasuke looked at Naruto with disgust, although the boy had performed a Jounin level jutsu it seems that he had no social skills and was also a pervert.
"He's probably not even good at TaiJutsu if he let's that Haruno girl beat him up so easily"
"It's probably jut some family secret or blood line limit that he used to perform that move, nothing to worry about he still not at my level."
It was only later that night when Sasuke went home that he realized that Naruto had done the jutsu without any hand seals.
(Author's Note):- I always thought that Naruto was messed up as unlike the other Genin he had no one to train him while he was young. Given Naruto's phenomenal growth when given a sensei that will train him and give him attention this fanfic tries to explore this possibility and show the results. Later in the fanfic I will do a recap of what training with Jiraiya was like and what pact Naruto made with the Kyuubi that allows him to perform Jutsu without hand seals.
