EDIT: MAJOR OVERHAUL a few things are being changed in the story, such as the removal of Sakura and Kakashi bashing, and a few extra lines of text to give the story move flavor.
You're probably wondering.
What is he doing with this, and in these categories?
Well, I saw that there seemed to be only one story where Jaune and Naruto were the same person, except it was Jaune who was mentally replaced by Naruto.
So I'm doing it on a bit of the opposite.
Naruto leaves the elemental nations, and becomes Jaune Arc.
At the same time, things will be a bit of an AU for the narutoverse.
For one, Naruto is smarter than he lets on.
Second, you will see some bashing on some Naruto characters.
Third, Kurama is nicer than he originally was.
Also, he'll have Senjutsu, because come on people, this is Naruto we're talking about.
He'll basically have obtained senjutsu earlier than in canon.
So yes, that means expect a very powerful Jaune/Naruto.
Now, this story will be updated at a slower pace than the others, since THOR is still my main thing, and I don't want to overwork myself.
For this one here, expect updates every few days... hopefully.
It'll mostly be on a per idea basis.
Anyway, let's start this up.
Naruto Uzumaki was done.
He didn't want anything to do with Konohagakure anymore.
Sasuke had ran away from the village, seeking power from that snake bastard Orochimaru.
But Naruto wouldn't let him, Sasuke was the first person he had truly formed a bond with, and yet, the Uchiha had attempted to sever that bond.
Naruto won the fight, he had defeated Sasuke, and had received a large scar from Sasuke's Chidori technique near his heart.
He was nearly unconscious when his sensei, Kakashi Hatake, found the two of them, quickly using a rather basic medical jutsu to stabilise Naruto's wounds, which were worse than Sasuke's.
Naruto somehow had the energy for a snarky comment, pointing out to Kakashi he was late again, which made the Jonin give Naruto his trademark eye smile before replying that he was right on time for once.
With a bit of effort, the lazy Jonin carried the two genin back to Konoha.
When they arrived back at the gates, Naruto had regained concsiousness, just in time for Sakura to thank him profusely for bringing Sasuke back, although she nearly broke some of his bones with her hug, which had her fussing over him a bit afterwards and apologizing.
Kakashi had smiled at that scene, being glad that Sakura had matured so much already, acting very much like a sister to Naruto, who quite obviously stopped crushing on her a little while ago, since he acted more like a brother with her.
After that, they put the two boys in hospital (though Sasuke was heading straight for the T&I department afterwards and would have a nice long chat with a certain snake mistress) where Tsunade personally healed Naruto's injuries.
Not only because she saw the brat like an actual grandchild (and Naruto very much saw her like an actual grandmother) but it was her duty, as his godmother, as Godaime Hokage, and as his cousin.
Her own grandmother was Naruto's Great-Great-Aunt after all, Mito Uzumaki, the wife of the Shodaime Hokage.
Naruto knew Tsunade was his cousin, but he didn't care.
She was still Tsunade Baa-chan to him.
Just like his godfather Jiraya would always be Ero-sennin.
After Naruto was healed up enough though, apparently the civilian council started throwing a fit, so Tsunade had to go pacify them, but Naruto came along since it was about him beating up their oh so precious 'Last Uchiha' after all.
When they arrived, they were greeted by the banshee that was Sakura's mother, a member of the civilian council.
The woman blamed Naruto for her daughter distancing herself from her, on top of the usual hate because of the nine-tailed fox.
In all honesty though, Sakura had just become extremely annoyed with her mother's non-stop whining, and her and her father had moved out (her father even divorced her mother), since they were tired of hearing her rambling on about Sakura not being with the Uchiha yet.
Yes, the reason Sakura had been after him in the first place, was because her mother encouraged it.
Mebuki Haruno wanted it to happen so she could live the rest of her life in ease from all of the Uchiha clan's money.
And in all honesty, Sakura was starting to realise that Sasuke was way too revenged obsessed to have that kind of relationship, but she still cared for him as a friend.
Before she had left though, she had enlisted Naruto's help to pull a revenge prank on her mother (this was a few months ago), which ended with her mother waking up bald.
Naruto was all up for it obviously.
Besides, even though he was the biggest prankster in the village (second to only his own mother, who was an even bigger prankster back in the day), nobody could ever prove it was him unless he actually signed his name.
Plus the only person who could catch him was Iruka Sensei.
Seriously, even the ANBU couldn't catch him while he ran away from them... in broad daylight... wearing a kill-me-now orange jumpsuit.
His stealth skill was actually beyond that of ANBU recruits.
Heck, the Sandaime had been considering making him an ANBU after the chunin exams were over, before he passed away fighting Orochimaru obviously.
Honestly, Naruto should by all rights be at least a chunin by now, if not an ANBU recruit.
Back to the main point though.
Tsunade was very much ticked off with the civillian council, to the point she lifted her desk and threw it at them, knocking a few of them out.
The shinobi council was extremely grateful for that.
The civilians had constantly been shouting for Naruto's head, or in the civilian's words 'the demon brat' 'the devil spawn' 'the fox incarnate' etc etc, you get the idea, they had a lot of names for Naruto besides his actual name.
Naruto had grinned when Tsunade turned to him and offered him a an extra pay for a D-rank, on top of the A-rank pay from getting Sasuke back, if he pranked all of the civilian council members here and now.
Needless to say they all ended up with something or other scribbled on their faces with permanent markers, some of which even having some rather... scandalising things since Naruto had been feeling especially rude towards them.
Thus quite a few members ended up walking around with dicks drawn on their faces, or in Mebuki Haruno's case, an arrow pointing to her mouth that said 'Insert dick here to shut up whore'.
Tsunade decided that Mebuki Haruno would be dragged back to her home by an ANBU would pass over the red light district, and he wouldn't be blamed if he 'accidentaly' left her there instead.
After that, the day quieted down, Naruto visiting the others from the retrieval team in the hospital, checking up on Choji, Neji and Kiba since they were worse off than him, although he did have a god-like healing factor to help him (he also met Kiba's older sister Hana, who had been taking care of Akamaru, she was nice), and Shikamaru got off the easiest, getting only a broken finger from his fight against the sound kunoichi, although he did rant about he alwasy seemed to be fighting women... and that he needed Temari to help him to win the fight against Tayuya.
Lee got almost no injuries, mostly thanks to Gaara's timely intervention in helping in the fight against Kimimaro.
Once the day was finished however, something happened.
Sasuke had somehow managed to escape detection when he woke up and ran away again in the middle of the night.
Except he had also done something horrible before leaving.
He had seen how the Hyuuga girl, Hinata, looked at Naruto, how she loved him so.
He hated Naruto, the blonde boy always seemed to come one step ahead of him, and he despised this, so he decided to hurt him, although indirectly.
So he raped her.
And he made sure she would have something to remember him by.
Most people thought that Naruto didn't know about Hinata's crush on him, but he knew, he just wasn't sure how to respond for the longest time, but after talking about it with some of the others (Read: Sakura and Ino) he decided that maybe he could give it a shot, and who knows, it might just work out.
Then he had learned of what had happened, and his world started to fall apart.
The Hyuuga's wouldn't let him go see her, because they had blamed Naruto for this, something that Sasuke had been hoping for.
Then came the hardest news of all.
Somehow, someone had managed to make Tsunade sign a form which basically stated that Naruto was to be exiled from the village.
Jiraya had been extremely disappointed in her.
Naruto only had three days to leave the village, but he knew that the people would try and do something to him if he left on the last day, so he decided to leave in the middle of the night.
Jiraya had given him a parting gift though, a scroll which contained a few jutsu, as well as everything he needed to know to learn a new type of fighting techniques, Senjutsu.
It pained Jiraya that he couldn't train his godson himself, but at the very least, he would give him everything he would need to become a great shinobi, he'd even revealed Naruto's nature affinities for him, being a strong wind affinity, and a secondary water affinity.
And so here was Naruto, jumping from one tree branch to the next in the middle of the night, a large scroll on his back, his blue eyes having lost some of their usual spark.
He didn't know where he was going.
He just knew he wanted to be out of Fire Country as soon as possible.
Perhaps he could go to Wave, go and see old man Tazuna and his family.
His thoughts were interrupted by a booming voice in his mind.
''I might have a few suggestions on what we could do kit.''
Naruto smiled as he replied ''Lay em on me fuzz ball.''
'Fuzz ball' as Naruto called him, was actually the great Kyuubi no Kitsune, the demon fox that had been sealed inside of him at birth by his father, hoping that Naruto would be seen as a hero by the village, but sadly ended up being seen as the demon incarnate.
Unlike what those in power thought, Naruto knew who his parents were, the Kyuubi had told him after all, and even showed him what they looked like, while telling him as much as he could about them, such as the fact that Kushina, the Kyuubi's previous container before Naruto had been called by two distinct nicknames, the first being the Red Hot Habanero, due to her fiery temper, which Naruto figured was where he got his hot-headedness from, and the Red Death, due to her skills in Kenjutsu, and that his father, Minato, seemed to always be afraid of Kushina while she was pregnant with Naruto, her mood swings were apparently very dangerous.
The most important thing the Kyuubi had shown Naruto though, were his parents' last moments, and their last words to him, which had made him cry when he first saw them.
They truly loved him.
This was something he had wondered for the longest time, if his parents even loved him, and he was so happy to learn that they did.
He'd also learned the truth of why the Kyuubi had attacked his village that faithful night, that a man who had called himself Madara Uchiha had been behind it all, having put the Kyuubi under a powerful Genjutsu after extracting it from his mother while she was weakened from giving birth to him.
After learning everything that had happened on that faithful october 10 night, Naruto didn't hold it against the Kyuubi, which led to it revealing it's true name, Kurama.
Naruto and Kurama had quickly formed a strong bond between Bijuu and Jinchuuriki, something which so far had only really been seen with the Jinchuuriki of the Hachibi in Kumogakure.
He also didn't resent his father for what he did, after all, what kind of man could ask another family to let him imprison a demon inside their child, if he isn't willing to do it to his own child.
But there was also the fact that only an Uzumaki could properly hold back Kurama.
Back to the present matter though.
Kurama rolled his eyes at his container's nickname for him ''Listen, I know of a way to get us far, and I mean REALLY far, from the elemental nations, it involves a technique, one that just might send us spiralling into another world altogether.''
Naruto, for a 13 year old, surprisingly understood the implications quickly ''Wouldn't a technique like that take a hell of a lot of chakra though?''
He could feel Kurama nod in his mindscape ''Indeed, it would take a lot of my chakra to complete, and I'll end up unable to help you for a few months at best, at worst, a whole year.''
Naruto nodded ''Well one year wouldn't be so bad, heck, having some time when I can't rely on you to lend me some chakra to keep going might do me some good for my training.''
Kurama grinned ''Still plan on being strong, even if you can't be Hokage anymore?''
Naruto nodded with determination ''Heck yeah, even if I can't become Hokage, I'll make sure people will remember me one day-ttebayo!''
Naruto could suddenly feel Kurama give him a dry stare ''You seriously need to get rid of that little verbal tic of yours kit.''
Naruto sighed, he couldn't help but agree with Kurama on this, although that little tic of his was part of he was, it could get annoying at times, although it became less annoying to him when he learned that his mother had a verbal tic of her own, ending her phrases in Dattebane, compared to his Dattebayo.
Naruto stopped tree hoping and crouched a bit ''So, what exactly will the technique do?'' he asked Kurama.
Kurama sighed slightly ''Basically it'll create some kind of ripple across space and time and send us somewhere else.''
Naruto rose an eyebrow ''So it's like an even cooler version of my father's Hiraishin jutsu then, some kind of super strong space-time ninjutsu.''
Kurama shrugged within the seal ''Essentially yes, except we don't need to have something on the recieving end to wherever we go.''
Naruto smiled as he sat crosslegged on the branch ''Alright, go for it Kurama.''
Naruto felt Kurama nod from within the seal and waited as the powerful Bijuu gathered it's chakra for the technique, before he suddenly felt himself lurch forward when the chakra was released, and was greeted by darkness.
Some time later, Naruto awoke in a forest, except he didn't recognize it.
He tried to make contact with Kurama ''Oi, Kurama, can you hear me?''
He didn't get any reply for a moment, before he heard a tired voice in his mind ''Be a little less loud kit, I need to rest after using up that much chakra, you probably won't be hearing from me for a little bit.''
Naruto nodded in understanding ''Alright, see you again soon fuzz ball.'' he finished with a grin, recieving a snort before he started to hear light snoring from within his mind.
He stood up and started walking in a random direction ''First things first, try to find civilization.''
It took him a few hours, but he soon found it, a small fishing village from the looks of it that had some high walls, probably to keep wild animals out.
He made his way to the village, and was quite happy that they let him in without issue, heck they outright welcomed him with open arms.
He did recieve a few curious stares from younger children though, who would point at his whisker marks on his cheeks and ask if he was a faunus.
Naruto had no idea what a faunus was, but said that he was a human.
Before entering the village though, Naruto had decided to remove his headband, seeing as he wasn't affiliated with Konoha anymore, but he couldn't bring himself to get rid of it, after all, it was gifted to him by Iruka when he defeated Mizuki and stopped him from stealing the forbidden scroll.
As he was walking around the town, he felt something small bump into him, making him look down to see a little blonde girl, probably only 7 years old, down on her butt, probably after having ran into him.
Naruto bent down to her level ''Oi, are you ok-ttebayo?''
The little girl looked up at him with curious green eyes before she nodded.
Naruto grinned ''Alright, I'd feel bad if you got hurt because of me, so, what's your name?''
The little girl smiled as she stood up ''I'm Jane Arc! What about you?''
Naruto would have answered her, but he had decided on something.
This place, whatever it was, could be a new beginning for him, so he decided to cast aside his old name, his old identity as Naruto Uzumaki, even though his parents chose that name with love, he wanted a fresh start as someone new.
So instead he shrugged ''I don't have a name.''
The little girl gasped ''But everyone needs a name!'' she said before grabbing him and attempted to drag him.
He rose an eyebrow at the little girl who was trying to drag him, letting himself get pulled along after a few seconds ''What are you doing?''
''I'm taking you to see Mommy and Daddy, they'll give you a name!'' said Jane with a big smile.
He was just even more confused at that, but he continued to let the little girl drag him along until they reached a pretty big house near the center of town.
The little girl pulled him inside and told him to wait at the door while she ran deeper inside, most likely to go find her parents.
A few minutes later, a beautiful woman came to see him, she had long blonde hair, and the same green eyes as the girl, she also had a baby in her arms at the moment.
''So, my daughter said she found a boy with no name, I'm guessing that's you?'' she said to him.
He nodded, still a bit unsure.
The woman hummed in tought ''Well, we can't have that now can we?'' she looked at him with a warm smile ''And you know, I've always wanted a son, 7 daughters does that to you.''
His eyes widenned, was she saying what he thought she was saying?
''So, a name then.'' she looked him over for a moment before snapping her fingers ''I've got it. How does Jaune sound?''
The now renamed Jaune tried it ''Jaune... I like it.'' he finished with a smile.
''You're also gonna need a family name, so, how about we call you Jaune Arc from now on.'' she said with a smile.
Jaune looked up at her with wide eyes ''But isn't that Jane's family name?''
She nodded ''It's also my family name, you can call me Melody by the way, or you can go short and call me mom from now on.''
Jaune looked at Melody with tears threatening to slip out of his eyes ''M-mom?''
She smiled sweetly at him as she bent down and brought him into a hug ''I've seen those eyes before, those are the eyes of someone who's lost a lot, but, do you want to know what the best medicine for that is?'' Jaune nodded ''It's love Jaune.''
The dam broke as Jaune started crying into her shoulder, years of pent up grief and sadness, finally let loose, as his new mother rubbed his back soothingly, the baby in her arms still sleeping soundly somehow.
It was this scene that Jaques Arc walked in on.
Melody looked up at her husband ''Welcome home honey, and say hello to your new son.''
Jaune turned to look at him, wiping his eyes with his sleeve.
He was a mountain of a man, with dark brown hair and blue eyes.
And dear lord he was built like a brick wall.
It took a few moments before somebody said something, that somebody being Jacques.
''So, we're adopting this kid then?'' he recieved a nod from his wife ''Alright then, I'll go and take care of the paperwork, what's your name son?''
Jaune smiled at his new father ''Jaune Arc.''
And so, it was on this day that Naruto Uzumaki disappeared, and Jaune Arc was born on Remnant.
Ta-da!
What did you guys think?
So yeah, Jaune is Naruto, Naruto is Jaune, vice versa and all that.
Basically expect to see Jaune throwing around Rasengans and lots of other shit in this story.
We also see Jaune's parents, who are universal across every other story I write that feature RWBY characters.
Anyway.
Read, Review, Don't be a dick, and have a nice day everyone!
See ya next time!
