Hey everybody names Matt well jarheadmatt on here. Anyway I thought id try my luck at writing a fanfic or two and see where that leads. Now forewarning you here I have mediocre writing skills at best. This is an idea I like that I've been wanting to try or read for while. Its semi smart Naruto to gradual smarter or well more tactical. He will still be Naruto just a more real version of who he should be if that makes since, and probably the bigger noticeable immediate change would be them all being little older fourteen to be exact. So everyone is two years older, Just helps move things on and make the more realistic. Well as much as chakra wielder ninjas can be real that is It also goes off fact of him mastering kage busnshin. Disclaimer: don't own Naruto!
Now without further adieu "lets Go wild".
We found our blonde hero waking at his apartment to a loud ring. "BEEEPPPP"!
"ahh shit I gotta get to the academy" Naruto sputtered out. He quickly got up and threw one his favorite orange jumpsuit. Well its his favorite because he hasn't been able to buy anything else from anyone. 'I still wonder about that one I mean sure my pranks got little outta hand but not to that extent '. With that in mind he made his way to the little kitchenette like room in his sparse was bare minimum here, he had a small oven , stove top,microwave, and small fridge. Anyways back to Naruto " mmhhmhmm ramen, I seriously love this stuff" after which he was shoveling down the rest of the savory noodles. Then he threw away the ramen cup and ran out the door only stopping to lock it. 'This it the day! Finally I'll graduate and be a freaking Ninja' he thought as he ran down the street. He zig zagged through the crowd of villagers in the street taking special care to avoid the more scowled looking ones at him. They just gave off this more than usual malice than others luckily for him not many shinobi had those scowls. Finally after a couple minutes of running Naruto reaches the academy. When he reachs the classroom he soon realizes he is still pretty early as there was only two others here already. 'hmm must have set alarm little early last night...oh well guess I'll just sit and chill for a bit' as he was making his way to the back seat he realized the other two genin hopefuls were none other than shikamaru nara and Shino aburame. The nara himself had his black hair up in a pineapple haircut will showing the nara lazy look. The aburame had sunglasses and a buttoned up coat that covered to his face showing not facial features or illogical motion such as the aburame way. both being fairly quite and relaxed. Well one because he was lazy and sleepy while other because he was stonic and calculating.'still both nice guys and pretty capable' he mused to himself. 'hmm now where'd that thought guess my ninja mind is trying to kick in now that ill be one..YES!' . "hiya shikamura, hey shino"he said as he looked to the two in question.
'"tch, troublesome but hey Naruto , you seem slightly different today, almost more hmmm... Composed '" shikamara said as he took a quick look over Naruto or more importantly the look in his eyes. They seemed to hold a new glint to them, not that the mischief and slight pain weren't there but now it held a deepness and determination in them as well. In all it was very troublesome.
"ahh good morning Naruto-san, " Shino replied as he to took a look over Naruto. Shino completely agreed something was slightly off. " yeah I'm not sure but I just feel different today like just better and more focused ehh it might be that I've toned myself down due to because I'll be a real ninja here shortly. Like I maybe unknowingly did, mehh but its cool I'll still be the greatest ninja ever' he said and proclaimed. Both Shino and shikamura gave him a amused look and nod and and then returned to there waiting of there other classmates. After about another five or so minutes a few more students walk in and the room slowly starts feeling up. The first few noticeable students being chouji akamichi, hinata hyuuga, kiba inuzuke as they were respectable clan heirs same as both Shino and shikamura. Now unlike the nara and aburame, chouji wasn't a skinny boy he was fairly big boned not that you should ever say anything more than that to a akamichi. He had swirl like markings on his face show his clan he was from. Then we have the inuzuke heir who wore a hoodie with a fur hood to show his clans primal-ness he was a thin framed boy with red fang like markings down his cheeks signifying him a proud inuzuke along with his little white nin-dog akamaru. Then we finally come to the hyuuga girl. She was a shy lithe little thing but covered herself in a puffed jacket always, she had a hime style haircut and a pale complexion. She also had white almost lavander pupil less eye that would show her as a hyuuga. " hey guys! How are you guys today" Naruto asked. "don't know bout you guys but I'm so ready to be a ninja its not even funny!
"yeah man I'm good and that's if you even make it as a ninja ha!" kiba quickly remarked " after all you are the dead last of the class and have failed before that's why your in our class now since ya even started early". "whatever it was all just a misunderstanding i so could have passed then i was just training all night and got no sleep. So mehhh!" Naruto said quickly sticking his tongue out after words.
"h-h-hi Naruto-kun, i-I'm good t-t-thanks for asking and y-yes I'm very r-ready" hinata shyly said Maybe then my clan will stop seeing me as a disappointment, because it hurts so much. But at least there's naruto-kun'
"hey man I'm great and so so ready. I'm gonna smash up all those guys who oppose the leave, also I get to prove us bigger ninjas are just as good! By the way guys you want any chips?' chouji exclaimed. ' nah man I'm fine just ready to do this!' Naruto said. As they finished there small conversations the last couple of students filed in. Noticeable ones being sasuke uchiha followed by his two fan girls being ino Yamanaka and Sakura haruno. After everyone got in and took there seat was when iruka there chunnin instructor appeared along with his chunnin assistant mizuki. 'alright class settle down and get seated so we can all get started on our test and see who of you will be ninjas today. First things first we will be starting on a basic knowledge test, then target accuracy tests then finally a real world applications test. Everybody with me so far?' after that he took a quick look over the class and seeing no hands up decided to move on 'alright good now lets get started' with that Iruka had started getting the students to get up and go to next room where he and mizuki where performing the tests. After half and hour nearly all the class had gone and tested. The iruka stuck his head back out the door ' Naruto Uzumaki please report to testing room please with that iruka shut door. "finally I get to test I felt like it took forever but at least now that I'm last I know what I'm up against. Its a good thing jiji gave me the shinobi for dummies & common sense for retards books when I turned eight it helped so much even though then last book kinda hurt my feelings...oh well it still helped" Naruto thought as he walked into testing room.
' hey Naruto how are you? Good I presume? well anyways you know the drill. You need to do henge, the kawarimi and finally the bushin no jutsu. So lets start'
'alright iruka sensei lets do it' Naruto said as he transformed into a busty blonde girl in a red string bikini with cute pigtails and six whisker marks on her cheeks. 'will this do sensei' she/he sultrily questioned. Bleed quickly leaked from bother teachers noses till they wiped it off.
'umm yeah hmmh yeah it will just uh change back now please' iruka said. With a quite pop the henge was gone. "of course he would be one of the one in five academy students who do real transformations and not the illusions" iruka thought to himself. ' ok Naruto now the kawarimi please' suddenly there was a potted plant where Naruto was that looked distinctly like the one from the other room. Then he heard the door move and saw Naruto walk back in
'hehe sorry bout that sensei the door was open and I guess I concentrated to much and well yeah you can see what happened hehe' he said as he scratched the back of his head. Naruto then proceeded to do the bushin no jutsu and suddenly there were four pops of smoke and five Naruto's. The original standing like nothing happened and the other four one ground with swirls in eyes and one even throwing up blue stuff. 'shit! Every freaking time I don't get it.i mean I concentrate and put what feels right into them' he said.
'im sorry Naruto but that just won't cut it I'm afraid I'll have to fail you' iruka said remorsefully especially since after finally accepting him as Naruto and not the fox he soon became like his older brother. Mizuki seeing his moment to interject like the good ole teacher he is interrupted before naruto could say anything ' aw come on iruka I'm mean he did make more than a couple bushins and one is still up kind of. I say we let him. Pass.'
'as much as I want to and I really do I can't I mean all the other students were able to make three good quality bushins and he only made a few terrible ones. He would end up using them and getting killed out in the field the best hope would be them laughing at him while he tries to run after using it.' iruka said. Naruto being devastated as he was took off out of the classroom to get some air and think.
Naruto soon sat the fourths head looking out over the village he always was more calm and relaxed after coming here. He could see the whole village, his home village the one he so desperately wanted to protect regardless of the scorn he gets.
' hey Naruto I thought id find you here. I mean you are at your best after coming here. I just wanted to check and see how your holding up and to let you know that iruka really does care and only did what he thought best.' mizuki said.
'yeah yeah I know but it doesn't suck any less I mean this is the last year I can take the academyt coursework and pass the exam by end of semester or I'm booted from the program, and I'll be damned if I'm going to be a civilian for the rest of my life. That might as well be a fate worse then death. Well not that I believe that fate shit anyways haha right sensei' Naruto said
'yeah well I'll certainly say your grown up some and learned some common sense since you have been in the academy and that's why I'm going to give you and extra credit exam. That and since you passed every thing else and this would average you into an above average passing score' mizuki said with a little to much cheerfulness.
' really sensei your not pulling my leg are you? I mean there really is one of this and all?all i need to know is how it is preformed.' he asked
'there sure is but the thing is that its alot harder. Its basically a stealth and information gathering task. Like mini war games that we teacher can set up with the hokage. Basically what you have to do is sneak into the hokage tower and get to the back room of his office and get a big scroll know as the great scroll of seals which is a big scroll full of upper level ninjutsu's that if you can learn one of means you obviously have skills to pass acadamy because you would prove stealth and aptitude to learn while getting a helpful skill' mizuki said."I hope he buys it because I will admit his stealth surpasses mine even. I mean come on who else can hide from jounin and ANBU in a bright orange jumpsuit. Bah it doesn't matter either way I will have it and be ride of this weak village"
'wow really? That does sound like a hard test but I Bet I can handle it' Naruto said." though that does sound a little odd I mean I've never heard of other people taking that kind of exam, but he is my sensei and is supposed to look out for me. Hmm maybe its like good teacher & bad teacher and iruka has to play tough love and mizuki is soft love. Ehh whatever I'll worry about it later" ...' alright sensei I'll start right away because about now is when most the ANBU are away for dinner. Well that is those is the normal time they are since i kinda had to guess and find there schedule to better perform my pranks. Hehehe'
'Great! I'll be ride outside of konoha in the Forrest near training ground thirty to decide if you pass. I'll give you three hours to get it and learn a technique ' mizuki said.."wonderfully! The little moron believes it. Great now I can get the scroll and kill the little fox brat so he can't ruin my lords plans later. Hah I might even be rewarded by him for it".
'wow this took a lot of work work to get' Naruto exclaimed as he took a seat on the Forrest floor by a little shack near training ground thirty. ' but it still only took thirty minutes even with old man homage there. Good things he's a pervert or else my pervert killed wouldn't have worked and I would have failed for sure. Though I still feel like something off...ehh whatever I need to focus for now. Lets see here first on the list is kage bunshin. Well damn of course the first one would be what I suck at but wait it says there solid clones. Well might as well try.' with that he was off to working on them.
Nearly and hour and a half later we find Naruto sprawled out on the Forrest floor gasping for air. 'damn! That was hard' he wheezed out' but I managed it haha. Hmm maybe if I learn one more I could even pass with like special honors or something?..lets see what else is next. Hmm the tajuu kage bushin. Well all that is is a more chakra required different version so I'll skip that. Ok I like this the tajuu kage shuriken jutsu. Well I'm sold hehe with that he was put back to practicing for the remainder of his time.
we find mizuki jumping from rooftops towards his fellow teachers lodgings ' this is perfect its almost be the time limit the homage has most available jounin's searching for the little moron and they don't have a clue. Now I just got to put the last price of the puzzle together and frame my friend for it all hahaha' he quickly jumps down from the roofs to someone door step and knocks frantically. :thud. Thud. Thud.: 'im coming old up' someone yelled from inside' opening the door iruka sees his friend mizuki there in a panicked state. ' hey mizuki what's got you so uppity'
'its Naruto! He has still the forbidden scroll of sealing and took off to the woods with it!' mizuki all but screamed.
What! Naruto would never do that he's a good kid there has got to be some reason that this happened!' iruka said and I'll find it out I'm going to look for him' with that he jumped away.
' haha this is perfect. God this just couldn't get any better mizuki chuckled to himself.
'There you are! I find you finally!' iruka shout toward Naruto.
' eh what are you talking about I wasn't hiding just waiting for you or mizuki for my test I did it but better yet I did one better and learned two technique and not just one. I'm so freaking awesome its scary haha!' Naruto said
'huh what are you talking about there's not make up test or anything. Did mizuki tell you to do all this' iruka asked. "god I hop that's not the case because if so not only does it mean he might have turned traitor but he was also planning on killing Naruto"
' umm yeah I kind of thought it was from both of you and all but I guess not. So does this mean it was a trick or something' Naruto hesitantly asked.
'hahaha well of course it is you moronic brat' mizuki sneered as he showed up' now just give me the scroll and I might just let you go'
' mizuki what the hell are you doing. You seriously aren't thinking of betraying the village are you, you bastard' iruka seethed. The very thought of his friend turning traitor both pissed him off and upset him little, and he'd be damned if he let someone he thought of a friend and watched over do something like that one main reason if because it obviously meant there friendship didn't matter if he keep that much secret.
' haha but of course old friend and not only will I get away with it you'll be Locked up and that little demon brat will be dead' he sneered again
' alright enough. What the fuck is up with you all and the demon word around me. I haven't done shit besides pranks they haven't been that bad and I mean I don't know my parent but old man hokage would have tould me if they were hated or something since I know he knows regardless of what he says Naruto yelled" least I'm pretty sure he knows and If he does i guess I'm just not ready for it yet,but maybe now I'll find out some answers "
' wow you still don't know and here I was thinking you were getting smarter. Well I'll tell you why after all i think I'll just kill you now and you deserve to at least know that you little demon bastard' mizuki said
' no! you can't do that you asshole its forbidden' iruka yelled
'shut the hell hell iruka and just listen along to. Well you know fourteen years ago with the Fox know as the kyuubi attacked our village well history says it was defeated by the fourth well history was wrong what really happened was he sealed it into someone new born child' mizuki said
"well i think i can see where this is going i i don't like it" Naruto morbidly thought.
'mizuki shut up already. Its against the law' iruka shouted again
' heh like I care! Anyways back to where I was that child was you Naruto they sealed it into you making you the demon brat hehe' mizuki said
' what? Damn that can't be true you have to be losing...but it kind of makes sense the glares and the sneers and shouts of demon brat, but if it was seal then that just like makes me its jail right he. Absent mindlessly said then he heard a swooshing sound and look up to see a fuuma shurikin coming at him " well fuck! definitely not one of my better days" he thoughts as he closed his eyes and waited. Suddenly he heard a squelching sound and felt a warm liquid splash his face and opened his eyes to see iruka in front of him with as smile on his face hovering in front of him protectively. Naruto was speechless for a moment before it all registered ' iruka sensei why! ' he yelled
' heh because Naruto me and you aren't very different and I know the pain it was to be alone and want to be acknowledged and I want you to know that I acknowledge you Naruto.' iruka said smiling with blood dripping from the smile.
' well if that isn't just a touching scene. So touching it makes me sick and I should end it' shouted mizuki.
'hurry run Naruto and don't let him get the scroll he will use it against the village' iruka said. With that Naruto took off into the woods with mizuki shortly after him after a few parting worked of I'll be back for you to iruka. Ten minutes later Naruto jumps to a branch as iruka lands in front. V hurry Naruto give me the scroll so we can keep it safe.' he said. Naruto just looks at him the ran and jumped doing a flying shoulder into irukas body and in a pop of smoke mizuki was there instead 'heh how did you know mizuki said. The in a pop of smoke where Naruto was now stood iruka ' because traitor I'm iruka' he said. Mizuki was beyond angry now. He hadn't expect this much fight from iruka and didn't expect him to protect Naruto as much.
' why are you even protecting him some much. The fox is the reason your parents are dead. Hell the fox is the reason most of the pain konoha has suffered has happened I mean don't you hate it and want revenge' mizuki asked while in a nearby bush Naruto waited with a held breath hoping for a good answer. ' what you say is very true the fox did cause all this and I hate it so very very much...' iruka said before pausing for a moment. That moment was all Naruto needed to feel his heart drop and was about to jump off and run away when iruka started speaking again ' but the thing is he isn't the fox, not even close he is Naruto uzumaki and he will be the greatest shinobi alive and a good hokage eventually' he said. Narutos heart nearly jumped from his chest he was so happy. He was accepted and believed in, the feeling was amazing and he would be dead before he let someone take it away with that thought in mind he crawled from the bush to the clearing they were in preparing to do anything to stop him.
' hmmph that's a shame iruka and here I was thinking of killing you last or at least pinning Naruto's murder soon you but now you die. With that said mizuki took out a demon wind shurikin and flung it towards iruka that easy leaning up against a tree. He closed his eyes and wait for his time. Only to not hear for feel anything. He then heard a gasp come from mizuki and opened his eyes to see Naruto in front of him with the shurikin between his hands and a look of determination and disgust etched into his face as he stared up at mizuki. Naruto did a quick look back to check iruka and it was then that he saw his one endless ocean sapphire eyes in a cold and hardened look that sends chills down you spine. It was a look that said whatever he was to do promised consequences to who opposed him. After he turned away Naruto quickly yelly up at mizuki. ' hey you bastard lay one finger on iruka sensei and I'll hurt you a thousand times over ' mizuki just laughed
' a thousand times you said. Phst what ever you little moron I'll only you one hand and destroy you.' with that said he was about to leap apon Naruto when he saw the blonde do some cross hand sign and felt a large surge of chakra. So he stopped and watched. Suddenly In a huge gush of smoke the Forrest after the smoke clear was filled with hundreds of narutos maybe even upwards of a thousand. All just standing there with kunai in hand staring down at him.
' what's wrong bastard though you'd only need one hand. Hmm well if you want start i will with that said all the Naruto's jumped mizuki and proceeded to beat the guy within a inch of his life. Be it kicks, punches, elbows, knees, it didn't even matter to them as they beat him. After about ten minutes Naruto was in front of iruka and said ' heheh guess i went little over board huh sensei?' iruka just sat there baffled for a moment before smiling and saying ' come here for a moment naruto and close your eyes' naruto did as instructed and felt a weight on his forehead and opened his eyes and notice iruka was missing his headband and realize wath it meant. ' yes! Thank you sensei! Thank you so much! I'll defiantly make you proud. You know what this is cause to celebrate. Lets go get some ramen!' with that naruto turned around only to fall on to the ground from exhaustion and the backlash from so many clones memories which he was slowly learning about now. ' you already have made me proud. You already have with that said iruka scooped naruto up and carried him to the hokage's office and seat him apon the couch with only few words to hokage mainly telling him to remind naruto of Raman after team selection. He then left before naruto woke up.
Shortly after around thirty minutes later Naruto wakes up and takes in his surroundings and immediately know where he's at and looks to the desk where the hokage's behind. ' hey old man, sorry about all the mess i create and what not i guess i thought i could trust my sensei'
' which normally you can and should he was just a bad leave that crumble and fell to the ground to be stepped upon. But its all ok now no worries. Though I'm very glad you ok now and also iruka said to remind you of ramen after ten selections the hokage said.
'alright thanks old man but i have a question. Why didn't you tell me before. I mean i trusted you and still do but that hurts i mean i had to learn from a traitorous sensei.' naruto solemnly asked. The hokage thought for a moment before speaking ' and for that I'm sorry but i really didn't think you were ready and didn't want to cause problems. You have to understand i wanted you to have. A normal life, i see you as almost my own grandson, but is see now i was wrong and you were ready. For that i apologize.' naruto nodded and told him it was all alright just to try not to keep things like that from him. He then left the hokage's office to head home to rest after a long day. Once naruto gets home he plops down on his bed to rest all the while his mind thinking on many things but most importantly the kage bushins. When he woke up he had there memories flooded threw him and some where even like organized for him to look threw his clones whole 'lifes' at minutes for the whole battle start to end on many of the clones memories. Which was awesome and very headache inducing to him he thought. That is probably the very reason he passed out he thought " this has definitely been an interesting day and with the clones I guess everything I experience is passed on. Well almost everything I didn't fell that all my muscles were different so I bet its everything but my body which I'll just have to keep training on that separately but I might be able to use clones for like my Justus and links studying and stuff. Alright its a plan I'll take the three days break to study the use of my clones as both training tools and I guess attack style tools" with those thoughts in mind Naruto finally passed out asleep due to his long day all the while wondering what lie ahead too.
well there you have it my first chapter of my first fanfiction reposted. Yeah I know it started off little slow but don't worry it will pick up here in the next few chapters just had to get like the beginning and stuff out of the way. So yeah I don't have a beta reader or anything and I will try to put up a chapter or two a week if I can and if people like it and I get good reviews. Though please be gentle its my first time ok haha
