Chapter 1: A new master
The little girl couldn't sleep because the story was just too sad, how can anybody treat somebody so cruel like that? "Daddy, can you go on please? I want to hear the more exciting parts of the story!!!" She demanded nicely.
"Fine, but you have to promise me you will go to sleep after ok?"
The little girl didn't really like going to sleep, but after sighing she reluctantly agreed.
The figure has red spiky hair, multiple piercings near his nose, and more importantly the same metallic purple eyes that Naruto possessed.
He remembered what has happened the day before, the amazing incident that seemed to overcome him, the mission which he has been assigned. He is waiting for the chance to start his mission, after one year of waiting, he hoped that today, October 10th, would be that day.
Flashback one year ago
In the depths of a city that never stopped raining, Amekagure, a man with long black hair is about to set his plans to make the world "peaceful" into action. The man's name was Nagato, he believed himself to be the one who will stop the foolish wars that has been going on for so long. To others he is the secret 'god among man' in Amekagure, but to some powerful people, he is known as leader-sama of the recent Akatsuki organization. Its task? To capture all nine Bijuu.
Nagato has many powers in his arsenal, after all, he did study under the toad sage Jiraiya. Most people in amekagure have not seen his 'magestic appearance', but those who do were sorely dissapointed.
Nagato was strapped to a machine is god knows where, he cannot move at all, though conscious, he looks like the most vulnerable man in the planet. But even still, nobody has harmed him, yet.
He sent his deva path, a resurrected body of his best friend Yahiko, who has unfortunately fallen in battle years ago protecting him and his other friend, Konan.
His mission? To capture the jinchuuriki of the nine tailed fox, Naruto Uzumaki.
After three days of none stop running, he has finally reached into the deep forests of the fire country, only one hour from his destination, Konoha, he was determined more than ever to get there before a fight erupts. Suddenly, he felt that he cannot move, he tried to will his feet to go forward from the tree he is on, but cannot. He sensed an enormous amount of chakra, one of the largest he has ever experienced.
Being a god, he will do one thing that a god should do, acquire power. He suddenly felt himself able to move again, speeding fast towards the source of the chakra. To Nagato's surprise, and he isn't surprised by pretty much anything nowadays, he came across a beautiful lake. Several days ago, the person behind the organization of akatsuki, Madara Uchiha recruited a new potential member to the organization, Itachi Uchiha. Itachi provided "pain" with every geographic detail about the fire country, but he has failed to mention this lake.
He felt the chakra signature grow stronger, he was in the right place, after drinking some water (even dead bodies need water and food), he looked up, that was the source of the chakra.
He looked into the person's eyes, it was the same eyes as him. Nagato wasn't stupid, he was far from it, he was a genius, and a genius knows history. He was looking at the sage of the six paths, the person who single-handedly created the ninja world and ninjutsu techniques.
the sage did not look surprised at all of his presence, he seemed to be expecting him.
"Hello, Nagato." The sage said, looking him in the eyes.
Nagato knew that he was outmatched, if he attempted to run, this body, his most important one, his memory of his friend, would be lost forever. He stiffed, muttering "Hello..." The sage looked at him again, replying "You see Nagato, you are clouded by bad judgement, you cannot change the world like you envision, everybody has a yin and yang side, you should know that very well as only Rin'negan users are in touch with that element. Currently, you are possessed by your yin side, it has conquered the balance in your body, allowing you to make decisions that you normally would not make. In a sense, you are possessed, but I have a special assignment for you, and you will take it, whether you like it, or not."
Nagato was mad, NOBODY tells him what to do, not even the sage of the six paths. He responded with two words, "Shinra Tensei." The trees broke off from the magnificent power of the gravity manipulation attack, but what was surprising was that the sage stood there, unharmed.
The sage looked at Nagato, "You are not the only one who knows that move, Nagato. Shinra Tensei." Nagato suddenly felt a jolt of pain in his entire body, he felt the chakra receivers vanish, Nagato lost his best friend, his only memory of his sanity.
The body of Yahiko stood up, Rin'negan eyes still with him, and bowed, "Nagato, this body has been freed from your yin side, you are not corrupted in this body, and I have a mission for you..."
Back in Amekagure, Pain cursed, the sage of six paths was going to pay DEARLY.
End of flashback
Five year old Naruto was eating his favorite food, Ichiraku ramen, the store seemed like the only store that would sell Naruto anything, all the other stores tried to kick him out or attempt to beat him, but somehow he was able to run away. The hokage deeply cared about the young boy, but sadly, he wasn't informed about anything because the ANBU that were supposed to be protecting the boy were happy to see that Naruto was being treated harshly. The hokage did do something for Naruto to gain his basic necessities though, after all, the leader of a great village isn't supposed to be heartless. He taught Naruto the henge jutsu 3 months ago, which can be used to disguise himself into another person. For Naruto, it was to get away from the glares of the villagers.
He remembered October 11th, where he went outside, every villager was focused on him, staring at him. The stare wasn't just anger and hatred, it was curiosity. Everyone has noticed the change of Naruto's eyes, but nobody was smart enough to know what exactly it was, not even the hokage, he just believed that it was a bloodline of the Uzumaki clan. And of course being a four year old, Naruto didn't know what it was either.
The figure in the cloak looked down on him from the hokage monument, he saw clearly what his target was doing. After monitoring the boy for a year, he cannot help but feel a great deal of empathy for the child.
Naruto finished his 10th bowl of ramen; his stomach was satisfied with the warm feeling of amazing food. He walked past the street, getting glares from everybody walking, he can hear the usual whispers, yes, the villagers knew what had happened last year with their family again being kileld by the demon.
Meanwhile, the council, led by Danzo, secretly met, their objective was to get Naruto Uzumaki killed for what has happened a year ago, and the council all smirked. The root ANBU was on the move.
(Night time)
Naruto was reading a book on basic chakra control, after being taught henge, he managed to sneak into the public libraries and borrowed many books on basic ninja skills and history. He once read a book for Kekkei Genkai, but none of them containing any information on the eyes of this. He dismissed his eyes as "super secret ninja eyes."
Suddenly, he heard windows breaking, he saw three ninja with masks, looking at him, ninja-to's unsheathed. The apparent leader of the group, a man with a dog mask, stepped up, and spoke, "On behalf of the great council of Konoha, we hearby find you, Naruto Uzumaki, convicted of treason for the murder of 30 people, villagers and shinobi, of Konoha, therefore, by the laws of our founding fathers, you are hearby beheaded." The figure ran forward, Naruto, with his eyes wide open, dodged the sword, with a cut on his face. Without his eyes, he would've been killed already.
He quickly grabbed a kunai from his desk, blocking a subsequent attack from another ANBU, then, there was a kick to his face, he was crashed into the wall in his apartment. The leader of the group whispered to him, ninja-to on Naruto's neck, "die... demon." Naruto was still wondering why people are trying to kill him, he felt betrayed again, mad, and powerless. HE closed his eyes, waiting for his worthless existance to end. It never came.
He heard several words for a jutsu, "Wind release, violent wind palm.", he opened his eyes to see the man in the dog mask, dead, with a shuriken in his stomach. The other two ANBU were finished off shortly afterwards.
"D-Dont come near me!!!" Naruto shouted at the man, who seemed to be unfazed by his words.
The man then stood up, walked up to Naruto, Naruto being as stunned as he is, just stood there, he whispered to Naruto's ears, "Do you want to become a great ninja?" "OF COURSE I DO, I AM GOING TO BE THE GREATEST HOKAGE!" Naruto gained his confidence back as he daydreamed of him dressed in hokage robes' sitting in the tower, Naruto was drooling. The figure smiled lightly, this was easier than he thought it would be. "Come with me, I can help you be the ninja you want to be, leave this village, forget your dreams of being hokage, you see, me and you are alike, we have the same eyes, we felt the same pain, you shall become my student, this is my mission." Naruto thought to himself for one minute, he was staring blankly, trying to comprehend the words that he has just heard, he looked at Nagato in the eye and replied, "Ok." Nagato thought about his reply, and stared at Naruto again, all Nagato can see with his all seeing eyes, was a boy who was traumatized and weak, that was going to be changed.
The next day, the sandaime hokage, Sarutobi Sasuke, was going through his piles of paperwork, when he heard a frantic ninja knock on his door. "Come in." The ninja barged through the door, "Lord hokage, the de-Naruto, has disappeared!"
The sandaime wasn't the hokage and 'the professor' for nothing, he sent his ANBU to capture Naruto ALIVE, but he was nowhere in fire country to be found, at least by them. Actually, the ANBU didn't bother searching for the boy, they all thought that the brat being gone was "good riddance."
Meanwhile, somewhere in the forest of Konoha.
"From now on Naruto, you will call me Nagato-sensei, I will train you to become strong, to love and hate correctly, you are destined to do something great, Naruto." Nagato said as he looked back at konoha. Naruto also looked at his former home, even though there were mostly memories of villagers glaring at him and telling him to go away, there were still good times.
SORRY NEXT CHAPTER WILL BE A LOT LONGER, probably 4000+ words. This storyline is really hard for me as I think it is pretty unique so I had to come up with a lot of inspiration and ideas.
Next chapter will be: Precious people.
Next chapter to be here this week.
