Prologue
… no justu: techniques

A lone man looked out the giant window that was one side of the white room. Small light flashes could be seen outside, in the darkness of space.
He sighed.
It has been eons since they fought this war.
Doomed has they been since the beginning, but they've fought with everything they've got.
And now, humanity was on its last legs.
There was only one last thing to do.
"It was an honor working with you all. Activate Contingency Beta-Golf-Charlie."
And then the universe knew no more.
These days, the Konoha ninja academy wasn't really that quiet. It was, of course, a school and all schools are noisy. What's different, is that this time, it was REALLY loud. Might be because it was a ninja academy… but then again, it can't be this loud.
Iruka Umino was a teacher of one of these very noisy classrooms. His class was, in a strange way, even louder than the others. It just might have something to do with a certain child named Uzumaki Naruto.
"IRUKA-SENSAI! Sorry I was late! I had was BUSY painting the Hokage mountain full of pokedots but…" he cried out as he burst into the room, his blonde hair flying. And that was also when Naruto finally caught up with what he said. "WAIT! I did NOTHING!" The teacher could only sigh at the dead last of the class and told him to sit down into his designated spot.
And also screamed at the class to stop laughing.
Of course, that is mostly what happened that day. Naruto makes mess, Iruka-sensai fixes it, Iruka-sensai give Naruto detention for not listening, Naruto prank somebody, somebody get mad, and so on.
Though there is something really different that will happen today.
The teacher was trying to teach the class exactly how to use Henge no Jutsu when Naruto suddenly said that he had already mastered it. Most students didn't believe it, as Naruto was a 0 in everything in their eyes.
And Naruto, of course, will totally blow them away. "I'll show you! Sexy no Jutsu!" Everyone's eyes widened as with a poof of smoke, the blond idiot suddenly turned into something else. Now, long, blond hair wavered down a girl's naked, curved body instead. The details will not be mentioned.
Four boys were instantly K. by instant nose bleeds while a few looked away, blushing like a Hinata on drugs. Most of the girls gave out huge Kyubi sized killing intent, raging crazily. A bit like this:
"YOU SON OF A *****!"
"WHAT THE **** DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING!"
"YOU ARE GOING TO PAY!"
"PERVERT!"
And of course, Iruka had to resolve this too. While plugging his nose.
"NARUTO! TURN THAT THING OFF!" Many girls also joined in that kind of shouting but Naruto seemed to have difficulties. He was making hand seals wildly, and doing all sort of stuff trying to deactivate the Henge. With absolutely no success. Iruka's thought he was just pranking them again, so just stood there, annoyed. After all, Naruto had exceptional acting and Henging skills.
Slowly, though, Naruto really seemed to actually have problems. Especially how that grimace was stuck onto his face. The Henged boy turned towards the teacher, pleading for help silently. The girls were already angry enough for the free 'show' for the perverted boys, and were charging at him, vaulting over desks (because of their inadequate training caused by their fangirlism over a certain black haired boy, they actually had trouble doing that…). Luckily for him, Iruka still had a heart. Half a heart.
"NARUTO, didn't I tell you to TURN THAT JUTSU OFF?!"
"Uh…" The boy looked sheepish. "How do I do that, again?" That was also when Naruto saw the angry mob of girls coming at him. He jumped up in the air, and screamed. Suddenly, he disappears in a poof of dust and reappeared beside Iruka.
"By KAMI! How did you know how to do the…"
Naruto interrupted him. "Magic! Now help me turn this off before they get me!" He waved frantically at the raging girls. They were only blocked, accidentally, by the few perverted boys who were watching. The non-perverted boys (almost none, because of their hormones) were quick to get out of the way.
Iruka glared at Naruto. Shouldn't he know? He took a deep breath.
"Naruto, just stop supplying the jutsu with chakra and it will dissipate."
"I can't! I'm not even supplying it with any chakra!" The teacher raised his eyebrow. Could the jinchuriki have so much chakra that he can't feel the drain? No. He has to consciously be supplying the chakra for the jutsu to work. A prank? He looked at the boy's expression. Probably not. Though Iruka had heard rumours Henges going wrong and weird stuff happens… The teacher needed a professional.
"Naruto, come with me. BUT GET SOME FEAKEN CLOTHING ON FIRST!" Naruto actually blushed before starting another Henge. Iruka-sensei stopped him.
"We don't want another problematic Henge, do we?" Naruto hesitated before nodding. Iruka took off his jacket and wrapped it around him. "Follow me. Mitzuki! Can you take over?" The other chuuin teacher nodded while Iruka and Naruto walked out of the class and towards the Hokage tower.
(insert break point here)
Hiruzen Sarutobi always had hated paperwork and all the junk that came with being Hokage. It just wasn't good for the elders. Even if some days, it can really interesting. Like today.
"Hokage-sama!" He looked up from his small mountain of paper before he blinked stupidly. It's not every day that you see a chuuin teacher with a mostly naked girl, while only a small jacket covered the 'important' parts of said girl.
"Iruka-san?"
Iruka shrugged and glared a bit at Naruto. "We might have a small problem here… Naruto tried out a Henge and somehow it turned out to be impossible to be nullified. Naruto always seem to make trouble out of anything…" He muttered the last part under his breath. Naruto cried out an indignant 'Hey!'.
The Hokage blinked a few times. "You sure that's Naruto? Not somebody disguised as him? He didn't even say one work yet…" This time, everyone blinked.
"Naruto… if this is a prank…" Naruto actually palled a bit.
"It's not!"
"You sure you are Naruto?" Naruto glared at them. "Hum…." the Hokage thought for a few seconds before suddenly asking a question. "Naruto, do a Bunshin." Said academy student blinked a few times before actually doing it, without complain. For some reason, Naruto didn't ask questions this time.
A poof of smoke appeared beside the boy/girl. Naruto already knew how the clone was going to look like before even the smoke cleared… NOT! Beside Naruto, was a perfect copy of Naruto, female version. The blond was shocked to the core. He had finally done it!
The Hokage, seeing that Naruto's Bunshin was still a female Naruto, he asked Naruto another question. "What hand seals did you use for your Oiroke not justsu?" The orange-suited not-yet genin showed him what he did and the Hokage literally sighed.
"NARUTO! You accidently messed up three of the seals, the three only seal that you are supposed to use for the Henge, then accidentally added three more seals that you use for a Bunshin, then somehow also ADDED A RANDOM HARE SEAL TOO?!" Iruka cried out in outrage. "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE DONE, NARUTO!" In response, his student blushed
Sarutobi-sama just took a pipe out of nowhere and smoked it before sighing. Then, he spoke. "Naruto, you know which jutsu those hand seals help in performing?" Naruto shook his head (technically, he was a she but ah well). "Those hand seals, were from the legendary 'permanent opposite transformation' no justu." Iruka-sensai and Naruto both blinked. "It reverses almost everything about the user, permanently." Naruto fainted.
When Naruto woke up, he was back at his apartment, on his bed, with a mildly concerned Hokage and an extremely concerned Iruka beside his bedside. A few seconds later, after recovering from the waking-up-drowsiness-syndrome, what happened sometime slapped him across the face. And he started crying. Well, she started crying. A hand appeared on her shoulder.
"Naruto, I know this is really hard on you, but which kind of Hokage candidate cries?" Naruto looked at Iruka and screamed out indignantly.
"Hey! I will be the most awesome Hokage ever! And I don't cry! Well, not all the time…"
"Now now, Naruto, don't need to scream. We have to find out everything that changed about you. One of the reasons why the technique isn't used much is because of its randomness. It might change something, might not, and even might improve some things by leaps and bounds. " The Hokage took a notepad out of nowhere (holy crap how does he do that?). "Gender change. Check. Personality change. Check."
Naruto scratched his head. "Personality change? I'm still the same… I think…" Iruka seem to face fault.
"Naruto. You have done more than one thing that actually smart in the last hour," The girl seem to take offense from that, surprisingly (not really), "You didn't scream 'Hokage-jiji' when you got to the tower, you don't talk that loud anymore neither do you talk as much, and you blush." Naruto blushed in embarrassment from not noticing all that. "See? You just blushed!" She blushed even more.
"Blush. Check. Improved Chakra Control. Check." (from the Bunshin) "Memory… hum…" and it plus some tests continued.
At the end, they found out that Naruto had now average intelligence. Though, that was probably just because of her low marks in what she calls 'boring subjects' like history were balanced out by her insanely high marks in theory, technology and other stuff like that (though it wasn't about what she knew, more about what she can infer from already existing information). Also, her 'un-attentiveness' had been 'fixed' by the unusual Henge no jutsu.
"Now, can I go back to my… *sigh* hyper reactive class?" Iruka asked the Hokage as the three of them walked back to the Hokage tower. On the way, they heard a few people starting a gossip about Iruka and his 'new girlfriend'.
"Not yet." They entered the Hokage's office.
As Hiruzen sat down at his seat behind the desk, his guests also arriving in front of the desk which had now doubled with paperwork. Then, the elderly man went into the Hokage thinking position. Which is just a normal sitting position. After a while, he talked.
"Naruto, I am going to teach you a new jutsu." Naruto eyes widened and Iruka looked a bit surprised.
"OH MY KAMI! REALLY?! OMK!" The Hokage blinked a few times. Looks like Naruto's liking for learning jutsus haven't changed. After coming out of his slight stun, he took a scroll out of a drawer in his desk and gave it to Naruto. The girl smiled at her jiji-san before almost ripping open the scroll. And she blinked at the name.
"'Charged Transformation Technique'?" She started to read. "Hum… it creates a layer of chakra that hides the user while the chakra makes the user seem like something else? And the transformations are solid?!" A smile appeared on her face and she jumped over the desk and glomped the Hokage.
Hiruzen smiled at the thanks his 'grand-daughter' was giving him. After a few seconds, Naruto stopped and she went back to her spot, blushing a bit. All the Hokage did was a laugh.
"Now, Naruto, do you know why I gave you the technique?" She shook her head. "I want you to use the special Henge to cover your new gender." The girl blinked. "Naruto, think about the beatings you get each year." He winced a bit. It was his failure that the girl/boy wasn't always protected. "Now that you are a girl, they could get worse. A different kind of worse."
Naruto blinked again. "How could they be worse?" She took on a confused expression. Iruka and the Hokage both sighed.
"You don't want to know."
And that was how Naruto went back to the Academy as a he. No one asked too many questions, as Naruto did get in trouble a lot, and everything was normal again. But some things did change.
A lot.
"Sir. He/she has been detected." The voice sounded almost metallic, but imitated a true, deep, male human voice.
There was a sigh of relief. Another man (?) spoke. "It's been many thousands of years, and true potential has finally been found. One to finally pick up the mantel."
"Finally."
