Chapter 1: the prologue
3 beautiful triplets, one with red hair tufts and violet eyes, one with blond hair tufts and violet eyes, and finally the oldest with blond hair and two different colored eyes one blue and one violet his name was soon to be named Naruto Uzumaki namikaze. "What should we name them" inquired kushina Uzumaki the mother "how about Mito, ken, and" "Naruto" kushina interrupted "like the name of the main character in one of Jiraiya's books" Minato said "oh yeah" the real reason was that it was a name that commonly popped into her mind when she ate ramen. 'BOOM!" (AN I'm not good at sound effects) the loud sound revealed the nine tails as it escaped the seal. But luckily kushina survived.
The nine tails had been ravaging for hours with little choice Minato sealed the beast in the younger twins, seeing as they were younger they were a better choice.
"My little heroes" kushina said looking at the younger twins while Minato held naruto "Is something wrong with him? Why are his eyes different colors?" kushina asked worriedly " there's nothing wrong with him, maybe he's just graced with unique eyes" the nurse said, kushina let out a sigh of relief " although our little jinchurikis are going to need a little more attention more attention" Minato said.
Four years later
The villages heroes, the prodigy jinchurikis, the perfect children, the list goes on and on while the older child is just, "one of the hokages children". Neglected and made fun of by his family not like they treated him as such but more often than not he was completely forgotten. They thought they were justified that they needed more attention because they were the villages so-called saviors the jailers of the "scary demon fox" but Naruto knew that was bullshit they hadn't showed a once of love to him in his entire life they never included him when they started family training, they forgot his birthday yet still expected him to give his siblings presents, and when he was blamed for his siblings miss doings and he'd be punished with isolation in his room.
He watched sadly from the window in his room as his family trained " the only one you can count on is yourself" said the voice of zetsu, zetsu was there spying on the twins when he noticed the small boy but it's not like naruto knew that "yeah they can go to hell for all I care! " naruto shouted in his normal white shirt which had an uzumaki crest on it and black shorts" I'll be better than them better than them all, I'll prove that I'm better!" naruto decided 'but how do I do that it's not like anyone teaches me anything, wait for the family library they have tons of scrolls there, and I just learned how to read to!' naruto then proceeded to sneak out of his room and into the library.
"I'll take this and this and this for now," Naruto said grabbing a scroll on chakra control, basic fuinjutsu, Tai, and kenjutsu. Then he rushed back to his room. 'Focus chakra on a leaf and stick it in your hand' the scroll read, ' leaf's huh, don't have any of those but I bet a pencil will work.' naruto concluded grabbing a pencil from his nightstand and attempting to stick it to his hand with chakra, saying it was hard was an understatement naruto's reserves weren't the "pool" the scroll mentioned no it was an ocean. After completing that naruto moved onto the kage bunshin scroll, this jutsu was surprisingly easy and when the clones dispersed we got there memorise from the clones ' wow I bet I can use this to up my training' he thought with a smile. Fuinjutsu was also easier to understand he came to the conclusion that one drew different symbols to get the chakra put into the seal to have a certin reaction. Tai was very challenging seeing as he didn't have the build needed to perform it properly 'guess I gotta put that one off' and he decided he was only going to learn the basic kenjutsu since first off he was a beginner and secondly he wanted to put a lot of thought into what style he chose.
After going through the scrolls he snuck back into the library, put the scrolls back except for the kenjutsu one, and took several books and on basic fuinjutsu, another chakra control exercises scroll, and a wooden kenjutsu practice sword ' wonder what that's doing here?' and he went to his room. 'Shadow Clone Jutsu!' about a hundred clones appeared they barely fit into the room 35 started reading the fuinjutsu books each taking one, 20 on kenjutsu each with a shadow clone sword, 10 on chakra control, and the rest on calligraphy he'd need to have really precise handwriting for fuinjutsu. (AN shadow clones practicing stuff like calligraphy and kenjutsu gives him muscle memory because his brain is still the thing controlling the muscles even though he still would need to practice it he's still getting a ton of progress with muscle memory) He himself would need to focus on getting stronger he was thinking starting with a hundred sit-ups, squats, and a ten kilometer run every day.
One year later
It was his birthday the day that he always felt the most alone the most forgotten. With tons of guests with gifts for his younger siblings and not a single one for himself.
He has currently level five in fuinjutsu halfway to grandmaster and one of the higher intermediate levels, he honestly loved fuinjutsu he was amazed what someone could create with ink and chakra. He had a great idea for a jacket that had a seal on it that could turn you invisible. He was extremely strong for his age along with fast and no one could hope to achieve his stamina, he was pretty good at kenjutsu but had yet to invest in learning a style, as if someone would teach him, and his chakra control was high genin although his taijutsu currently just consisted of self-defense.
" Hey, kids were going on vacation! Just me Minato and you, we're leaving tomorrow" kushina shouted, luckily naruto overheard "shit!" he said, then he opened the window and ran down the wall with his wallet in hand headed to the convenience store.
"Two boxes of instant ramen please" "sure thing kid," the shop owner said accepting the bill naruto handed him. Next Naruto stocked up on empty scrolls and ink.
Slipping back through his window naruto sighed 'why do they never remember?' naruto set down his supplies and glanced at his alarm clock 11 pm 'better get to bed.'
10 am 'seems they already left' "better get to work, " Naruto said as he headed to the library which he would have to himself for the next couple of weeks. 'Shadow clone jutsu!' a hundred naruto's ran through the room each grabbing a different book on ninjutsu.
A few hours later
"Perfect" shouted a shadow clone "what is it?" Naruto asked "gravity seals, they make it so you can increase your strength even when your not training and without stunting your growth" naruto then when over to shadow clone and started reading about gravity seals. Naruto was currently sitting on his bed with a shadow clone in front of him, it was holding a paintbrush " could ya hurry up?" Naruto asked, "yeah," the shadow clone said as it finished the seal " now apply a little chakra " "okay" as Naruto did so he fell on the floor " ugh can't move," Naruto said as he struggled.
It took Naruto a full hour to get into a sitting position and it definitely was an exercise " get me some ramen" Naruto said. Naruto just finished crawling to the library when the clone arrived " itadakimasu!" the ramen was delicious.
Naruto woke up the next morning with a lot more knowledge on sealing than when he went to sleep he then created more shadow clones to go to the library and struggled to exercise 'ugh', he ate ramen, then practiced his fuinjutsu and then practiced his kenjutsu and sparred with one of his clones facing painful defeat.
The days continued like that but he probably made progress equal to a year of sharing the house, today was the day they were coming back naruto had successfully cleaned up the house to and now he was in his room reading a book on advanced fuinjutsu with his clones all sitting around the room reading various things.
"We're back!" Mito shouted to the presumed empty house 'great' Naruto thought "that was so much fun lets go again next year!" ken shouted "yeah the family vacation was a great idea," Minato said.
1 Year later
The loneliness probably would have driven any other child completely insane but Naruto wasn't any other child he was naruto namikaze Uzumaki even if he was legally naruto Uzumaki namikaze and he swore he would surpass them all of them not just his siblings but his parents, the sennin, and every single shinobi who was ever born. Even if his goal was improbable he swore he'd achieve it and he honestly wanted all the people that had wronged him to rot in hell even if they were the only flesh and blood he ever knew, they didn't act like it. He set his book on his nightstand it was about advanced/grandmaster level fuinjutsu and put on his jacket it was orange with a big red Uzumaki crest on the back and two black stripes which were on the arms and the main part of the jacket, he left the jacket unzipped. he was proud of it he had finally made a seal which could turn some on invisible, the seal it was currently in the jacket or rather part of the jacket. He then sat on the window seal watching everyone party outside the "hero party" as it was called and it was huge if you weren't at the actual party you were in the village playing games and celebrating the Kyuubi's defeat.
He ran his hand through his hair it was shaved on the sides but there was still a decent amount of hair on the top of his head. He was wearing a white shirt with his jacket and black sweat pants along with black ninja sandals.
"ATTENTION!' minato shouted outside " today I have decided to announce the clan heirs" 'no' I Thought' "the heir of the namikaze clan will be ken and the heir of the uzumaki clan will be mito!" naruto's ears were ringing the only thing he could hear was the words repeating in his mind part of him knew that there was no way that he'd stay clan heir if he was completely forgotten by his family but it was just unreal it seemed impossible yet somehow they had betrayed him more so then they already had. After he had come to his senses he gathered all his valuables , which consisted of a book on extremely complex sealing, a necklace he had made it has a piece of wood with a seal on it that suppressed someone's chakra to sensors it was on a normal chain, he threw it around his neck, and finally a notebook book which he used to sketch out seals. And put most of his valuables in a bag he then zipped up his jacket and flung the bag over his shoulder. Once he left his room he turned invisible and on his way out he put a lunch box filled with food pills, a canteen, and a 100,000 Ryo he stole in his bag but it's not like they would miss him or the money it they were rich.
He then continued to walk out the village gates and once he was out of sight he turned visible. 'Where should I go , wait wasn't me "mom" from a different village I heard it was wiped out but I could still stay in the ruins if I remember correctly it's an Island off the coast of the land of water surrounded by whirlpools, hmm I'll go there!' naruto decided "kai!" Naruto said releasing the gravity seals he'd upped the weight on them several times over the last couple of years, he was then gone in a blur of speed.
