Chapter 1.1
A sound of swords clashing in the training ground did not bother the blonde spectator who was busy reading a story book entitled "The Young Lord's Journey". The book itself was about a son of minor clan leader who will unify the troubled continent whereas under his leadership in his clan brought prosperity and riches.
The story itself reminded Naruto of the current situation and his current life. Whoever wrote that story must have longed peace and propensity during the time the author wrote. Surely, that time must have been all troubles and rife throughout the continent?
With that in mind, he activated his unique "Multi-Tasking" ability. This ability allows him to perform various multi-tasking within his person. For example, he will attempt to use his mana to perform actions on the target(writing material = sketch/compose/draw, dolls/puppets = living being movements, weapons, etc.) while being asleep or so. The only draw back was he will get some headaches from using it.
If one were to hear this well-kept, the misunderstood patriots and loyal subjects namely Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru, will say this to non subjects"The Young Master himself alone showed this to us as a sign of trust and understanding us, in return for our part as his trusted retainers, we will help him achieving his justified goal with our lives." When did this 'clearing the misunderstanding' happen? Naruto himself clearly told his 'self' to Hiruzen at the secret chamber after his small transformation five days after his arrival and so what followed next, became evolution of the Kingdom as a whole.
Back to the story, just now when he activated his unique ability, he let his small portions of 'himself' play a game of chess with a Nara girl around his age, a pen at his residence issue his shopping list and orders, and 'himself' half asleep/awake.
'That stall guy who evaded the tax(tax evasion) and arrested by ANBU, I wonder where he is now? Dead? Oh well, at least I can leave it to Hokage-dono.'
As long as his two retainers his age get stronger than his 'original timeline' and him being stronger than his original self too, it'll be like small steps of flawless ideal strategy, screaming promises of just rule and prosperity.
But this process needed some time. He already have list of candidates in his mind who will play the key parts.
Two weeks had gone by after weeks of training, cleaning up the 'unwanted maggots', and giving an order to the Hokage and the War Hawk to up the economy with reforms together with the military and chase after the tax evaders within the realm, the blonde royal greeted the half-masked elite Imperial Guardians(Secret Service) operatives guarding his room and some house staff on the way to the Royal Library.
After entering the Royal Library, he saw one of his relatives, a white haired boy around his age, reading a book. The book itself was military strategies and organizations written by a person of great renown during his time in the Ancient Civilization. That author influenced the Ancient Civilization millions of years ago because of it.
'After working with and meeting you six years ago, I have no regrets now. I will use my talents to the fullest!' an image of smiling teen version of the boy clad in his light armor blocking the deadly blow aimed at himself with a single sharp sword caused the blonde royal stop dead in his tracks for a moment.
'At long last, I found him earlier unlike the last time. The question is will I be able to convince him again?' Naruto thought with a questioning look as he recalled some 'first days(first meeting and impressions after that)', fixing his flawed swordsmanship which later became unparalleled as an effect of coaching, and so on.
"Good morning cousin. What brings you here?"
Before Naruto realize it, he saw his kinsman greeted him with some small restrained curious smile that speak of 'since I do not know you on a personal level and first time meeting you I respect you as family member" kind.
This smile gave inner Naruto a determination to grab the opportunity, believing it will be a clearer road than the last time.
