Chapter 2
Hiding in the bushes, he waited patiently, knowing surprise is the key element in this situation.
His target sighted!
He slowly reaches for his pouch and launches 2 shurikens with impressive speed and accuracy at the target. Fully knowing his target will dodge his attack, was about to spring his booby trap until he noticed that his target actually got hit by the shuriken.
"TOU-SAN!! OMG I KILLED MY OWN DAD" trembled the small blonde.
As blonde fearfully ran to his dad's side, only to find a pile of wood?
"eh?" was all Naruto could say before…
"ONE-THOUSAND YEARS OF PAIN!!" yelled a voice behind him
Naruto turned around just in time to see the face of his attacker, and also just in time experience the power behind the damn jutsu.
"TOU-SAN IM GOING TO KILL YOU!!" was all that was heard before Naruto disappeared into a star in the sky.
"So…how's your butt?" cracked the mighty yondaime
Naruto, rubbing his butt, simply made a face that read "Only 10 bowls of ramen could cheer me up".
"Now now Naruto, don't be upset, you are improving greatly, and way further ahead than many of your peers" exclaimed the happier blonde.
"Tou-san, I'm only 7, and the academy doesn't even start until I'm the age of 8. Why do I have to do training? Can't I just go play with my friends like NORMAL 7 year olds?" shouted Naruto now rubbing his right side of his bottom.
"There is no such thing as normal; everybody is unique in their own way. Take Itachi for example, he is unique not only because of his blood line, but because of his ability to adapt and learn quickly. Also Kiba-kun and his ability to track you a mile away is a unique ability." explained the yondaime
"So what's so unique about me, I don't see myself as a genius or a tracker like Kiba." complained the ramen lover
"Well, you have to find out for yourself what makes you so unique, and use that uniqueness to do unique things. And that's what will set you apart from the others. That's what will make you, you. Do you understand?" smiled the Hokage
"-.-"
Naruto, in his ever so developed brain, was trying his best to translate the "blah blah blah" he heard from his mentor. After a few more second Naruto's face lit up like a light bulb, a face seeming to understand.
"Tou-san!"
"Yes Naruto? Have you found out what makes you unique?" said a proud feeling genius
"I want some ramen"
"…………, sigh,….. very well" said a not so proud feeling genius "He will found out one day, and also the other secret as well, I just hope he is ready when he does" thought the kage.
ICHIRAKU RAMEN
Literally swallowing down his noodles, Naruto earned a slightly worried look from the bigger blonde.
"Naruto, you know it's not healthy for you to swallow food whole, and added to that, your at your 11th bowl -.-"stated the hokage
"Tou-san, I have a question, what's this swirly looking thing in my ramen called?" asked Naruto as he starting poking at the swirly thing.
"Uhmm, well, that swirly thing, just happens to be called…naruto" said the hokage weakly
"YOU NAMED ME AFTER A RAMEN TOPPING!!" yelled a furious Naruto
"Well actually you should feel honored. Jiraiya-sensei himself came up with the name." giving the boy a reassuring smile.
"I don't care if he's your sensei or a sannin, that damn pervert is going DOWN!!" shouted Naruto with fierce bang on the table.
Minato could've sworn he saw fire flicker in his son's eyes. "Hmmm, best not teach him Hiraishin no jutsu until he forgives Jiraiya-sensei." quietly making a note to self
Namikaze Estate
"Naruto, you will be 8 next week, which also means you will be entering the academy the day after, aren't you excited?"
"Excited my ass, when my classmates find out the heir of the Namikaze clan is named after a ramen topping, they're never gonna leave me alone." groaned the unhappy 7 year old.
Naruto could only await the fateful day in fear. The first day of school.
