Flash back
4 years old Naruto is running as fast as he can from the villagers and ninjas. 'Why, why me? What did I do wrong? All I want is to buy some food and they just started chasing me', Naruto thought as he ran. Suddenly he tripped on some weirdly shaped fruit, "ouch," he groaned as he picked himself up from the ground. He looked around and noticed he is in the outskirt of Konoha. Finally, he looked down and saw the fruit and picked it up. "Pre-pretty," he said in a quiet voice as he looked at the swirly designs on the fruit. 'I wonder if it's edible?' thought Naruto as he looked at the fruit in curiosity. Suddenly, his stomach growled, 'what ever, I have nothing else to eat any way,' he thought as he stuffed the fruit in his mouth. "Blegh, what kind of fruit is that? That was probably the worst food in the entire world!" he shouted angrily. He sneezed, blowing the nearby trees away. "What-what just happened?" he stuttered as he look at the tree that was blown away. "There he is! Don't let him get away!" A jonin screamed as an angry mob running behind him."
"Crap! They found me," Naruto started to run. Running as fast as he could, 'Faster,' a voice said inside his mind. "wh-what's that noise?" The group of shinobi started catching up to him, 'faster, run even faster' a deep growling voice inside his mind said. Naruto started running as fast as he could. Suddenly, he started levitating off the ground. "I'm flying, I'm actually flying!" shouted Naruto as he levitated up even farther off the ground leaving behind a group of shinobi and civilians confused. Naruto started laughing in happiness as he flew farther and farther away from Konoha.
Naruto at Age 12
Two Konoha gate keepers, Kotetsu Hagene and Izumo Kamizuki both sighed, "I'm bored, I wish something interesting will happen soon. Ever since that blond brat Naruto Uzumaki disappeared from the village things have been too quiet lately," said Kotetsu.
"Hey hey, you shouldn't jinx it otherwise something bad actually might happ- hey what's that?" Izumo said pointing to a figure walking near the gate.
Kotetsu looked closely at the figure walking near the gate. 'Blond hair, 3 whiskers mark on the cheek?' His eyes widen, "Izumo! Alert the Hokage that Uzumaki Naruto have come back to the village."
"What?" Izumo's eyes widen as he quickly shunshined to the Hokage tower.
"Sup Kotetsu," Naruto said as he walked in front of him.
"Yo Naruto, it's been awhile," said Kotetsu.
A few seconds later the third Hokage Shunshined in beside Kotetsu a longed with Izumo. "It's been a long time Naruto. I'm glad you're doing well," he said with a smile. "I would like you to come with me to my office. I'm sure that you have a lot of things to say to me."
"Sure thing," he said, putting his hands behind his head.
Hiruzen smiled, "Very well, let us head to my office," said Hiruzen as he walked toward the Hokage tower with Naruto fallowing behind him. After they got to the Hokage tower, Naruto explained everything that happened starting from why he left the village to how he obtained the devil fruit power. "I see, now Naruto do you want to become a shinobi of Konohagakure?
"Nah, that won't be enough. I'm going to become the Hokage!" he said in an exciting voice.
"Before that you need to be a Shinobi. I shall registered you to Iruka's class to do the final exam. I will explain everything to him so you would not have to worry," Hiruzen said with a smile. "Go to the academy tomorrow at 7 in the morning and meet up with your instructor. Oh and here are your dorm keys," throwing Naruto a pair of keys.
"Thanks!" said Naruto, full of excitement.
The next morning at the academy Iruka said to the students, "class we have a new student today who is here to do the final exam, please treat him with respect."
"What?!" A pink haired girl named Sakura Haruno screeched. "He can't just walk into the academy and do the final exams with us! It took us four years to reach this day! It's not fair!"
Iruka sighed, "I'm afraid this is a special case since the new student seems to have more experience than most of you here. Besides, this is Hokage-sama's order. You can come in now.
The students started murmuring amongst themselves.
"I hope it's not a female. Otherwise I will have a new rival for Sasuke-kun," said a girl named Ino.
"Che that new student better not go near MY Sasuke-kun. SHANNARO!" thought inner Sakura.
"This is going to be troublesome," a lazy boy named Shikimaru said.
"Woof woof!"
"You're right Akaramu, I bet I'm more alpha then him," said a smirking boy named Kiba with a dog on his head.
The reminder of the class remains silent waiting for the new student to come in. A blond haired boy walked into the classroom. "Sup, the name's Naruto. Future Hokage. Nice to meet ya,"
"Hello Naruto-san, you may take a seat beside Hinata-san over there," Iruka said as he pointed toward the empty seat beside Hinata.
"Sure, Iruka-sensei," Naruto said walking to the seat beside Hinata.
"H-hi, its ni-nice to me-meet you. M-my name i-is Hinata," stuttered Hinata.
"Nice to meet you, too," replied Naruto.
"Alright class! It's time to do the written exam. Mizuki-sensei will be handing out the test paper," Iruka said as Mizuki started handing out the test. After thirty minute Iruka shouted, "Alright class hand in your test! It's time for taijutsu test! Let us head outside." Everyone cheered as they head to the practice ring outside the academy. "First match will be Uchiha Sasuke vs Uzumaki Naruto. No ninjutsu are to be used in this fight." The two contesters stepped inside the ring.
"Ready to lose teme?" said Naruto with a smirking face.
Sasuke stayed silence waiting for the match to begin. "Hajime!" Iruka said as he took a step back. Sasuke ran forward charging at Naruto ready to punch him in the face. Naruto side stepped dodging his punch. "Is that all you got Uchiha?" Naruto said with a smile.
"I'm just warming up," Sasuke said as he readied for another position to strike. Sasuke's fan-girls started cheering as he charged at Naruto aiming for punches and kicks. But they all missed as Naruto dodged all of the strikes the Uchiha tried to land on him.
"I win," said Naruto as he suddenly appeared in front of Sasuke punching his guts knocking him out of the ring. The fan-girls cheering stopped as they saw Sasuke getting knocked out of the ring.
Sasuke gritted his teeth as he realized what happened. He growled under his breath and charged at Naruto with a kunai.
"Sasuke, stop this at once!" shouted Iruka. It was too late as Sasuke managed to slice Naruto. Everything seemed to be in slow motion as Sasuke attacked Naruto with a kunai. Then suddenly a strong wind blew by as everyone saw Naruto disappeared in a gust of wind.
"Like I said teme I win," Naruto said as he suddenly appeared behind Sasuke chopping the back of his neck.
"Iruka-sensei! Naruto-baka must have cheated! There's no way that Sasuke-kun would have lost if he didn't cheat!" screamed an enraged Sakura. Iruka stared, still in shock at the sight he just witnessed. He managed to shake his head and snapped himself out of the daze.
'I'll report this to Hokage-sama later,' he thought. "Now Sakura it is clear that Naruto did not cheat. Besides Sasuke here used his kunai during the match therefore Naruto wins," Iruka said, "Now next contestant step forward." After everyone have finished their taijutsu test it is finally lunch time. As everyone sat down in the classroom to eat their lunch Iruka quickly head to the Hokage tower. "Hokage-sama may I have a word with you?" he said.
"Yes Iruka, you may come in," said the Hokage.
"Hokage-sama it's about Naruto. It happened during the match with Sasuke. When Sasuke land a strike at Naruto with a kunai he suddenly disappeared in a gust of wind and reappeared beside Sasuke. Can you please tell me what is going on?"
"That, Iruka-san is Naruto's special ability after eating a devil fruit," said Hiruzen.
"Devil fruit! I thought that was merely a legend! I thought it might have been the kyuubi-" Iruka was cut off after Hiruzen glared at him.
"Now Iruka, you do know that the devil fruit is merely extinct? It is one of the rarest fruit in the planet. A few people spend their life time searching for it but never found a single devil fruit. It is, after all a treasure of the sea. It have the ability to grant a person a special power but will lose the gift to swim," Hiruzen stared sternly at Iruka. "Now I thought you have a class to teach right now?"
"Yes, Hokage-sama," he quickly bowed to the Hokage and head to the academy to begin their next test. After he got back to the classroom he shouted, "All right everyone back to your seats. It's time to start the next test." Everyone hurried back to their seats as they wait for Mizuki and Iruka to explain the next test. "The last test will be Bunshin no jutsu. Mizuki and I will be judging you one by one in the private room," Iruka said. "First up, Shino Aburame." Shino stood quietly up and went into the exam room. After twenty minutes Iruka said, "Last but not least, Uzumaki Naruto." Both of them walked into the exam room.
"Iruka-sensei is it alright if I do a different kind of bunshin?" Naruto asked.
"Yes you can Naruto-kun," Iruka said.
"Thank you Iruka-sensei," Naruto said as he prepared his 'jutsu'. "Kaze bunshin no Jutsu," Naruto said as Iruka and Mizuki felt a gust of wind blew inside the room. An exact copy of Naruto materialized when he said the jutsu. "Did I pass? Huh? Did I pass, sensei?"
"You passed Naruto," Iruka said with a smile. Naruto smiled and went up and grabbed a Hitai-ate.
The next morning Naruto walked back to the academy and sat down with the rest of the student. Everyone is excited. Today is the day where they make the teams assignment. Everyone's been wondering who will be in their teams. "Shut the hell up and go back to your seat!" Iruka shouted using his big headed no jutsu. Everyone immediately quieted down as he started to speak. "As you know today will be your last day as an academy student. Starting from today you will become full fledge shinobi. Starting today you will be protecting the village with your life on risk. Being a shinobi is no game. I want to let you all know that I am very proud of you all for being this far away in the shinobi careers. I wish you all the best of luck," Iruka said in a very serious voice. "Does anyone have a question?"
Someone put their hand up and asked, "Where is Mizuki-sensei?"
"Mizuki-sensei is in the T&I(torture and Interrogation) right now. Yesterday he was caught stealing the forbidden scrolls yesterday," replied Iruka. "This will be a lesson for all of you. Becoming a shinobi is not an easy task. Sometimes the stress will make you do reckless things such as Mizuki stealing the forbidden scrolls. Now, on to team assignments. Team 1…" Naruto zoned out until he heard Iruka called his name. "Team 7, Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno,'true love for the win. Beat that Ino-pig,' and Uzumaki Naruto. Naruto groaned as he heard he was paired up with the emo he beat. Team 8 Hinata Hyuuga, Kiba Inuzuka, and Shino Aburame. Team 9 is still in session. Team 10 is Shikamaru Yoshino, Ino Yamanaka, and Choji Akimichi. Your team instructor will arrive shortly."
"I'm here for team 8," a red haired Kunoichi said as she walked into the class.
"Well, I guess our sensei will be here soon," grumbled Naruto.
