Good morning, afternoon, or evening lads and lasses. This chapter was slow in the making due to the knock on the head I got. If I remember correctly I fell from my roof and hit my head on something. But anyway I am better though still a bit fuzzy in the head.
Anyway let us get on with the story.
Phantom of Konoha
CH. 4-Gifts and Teachers
-Konoha, Uchiha district, morning-
Naruto woke up in a weird situation. He woke up in a bed that was too soft to be his and he was in a very grey room that he didn't recognize. Second, there was a weight on his chest that wouldn't let him up. Naruto opened his eyes to find Satsuki curled up on his chest. Naruto wondered what happened last night to get him into this position.
-Flashback, 7 hours ago-
"My name is Satsuki Uchiha."
"Well that explains why I always smelled female's perfume around you." said Naruto as he leaned back in his chair and looked up at the ceiling.
"Wait you're not surprised about me being a female?" asked Satsuki with a shocked tone.
"No not really. My sensei shocked me with so many surprising things that I don't really feel or show surprise anymore." Said Naruto as he watched a fly buzz around in the air. "Though I would like to know more about why you had to hide from the civilian council."
"Well they would have enacted the CRA or the Clan Restoration Act. The act would 'help' the clan repopulate. If the last person were male, they would have many wives. And be the last of the clan be female; she would spend the rest of her days being a baby maker. Now that I am a Shinobi, the council can't force me into the CRA." Said Satsuki.
"Ok, sounds like the civilian council needs to be removed from power, but now it is time to celebrate for us becoming Shinobi and for you for tricking everyone into believing you were a guy." Said Naruto as he unsealed two bottles. One was sake, and the other was Glenmorangie malt scotch whiskey.
Naruto slid a cup and the sake bottle over to Satsuki, then uncorked the scotch bottle and drank a mouthful of it.
"Um… aren't we too young to be drinking?" asked Satsuki.
"We are ninja. Old enough to kill, therefore old enough to drink, gamble, and fuck." Stated Naruto as he finished downing half of his bottle.
"Ok." Said Satsuki as she poured herself a cup of sake and downed it in one go.
After the second cup she passed out.
" Meh lightweight." Said Naruto as he set his empty bottle down and picked Satsuki up and carried her to her room.
He then set her down on a bed and looked at the time. It was 01:30, too late to go home.
'Hmm… wonder if Satsuki would mind if I borrowed one of the other rooms for tonight?' thought Naruto as he walked into a room with a bed. He then took off his cloak and collapsed onto the bed. Soon he was out cold.
-End flashback-
'Well that's what happened, but how did she get here?' thought Naruto as he Kawarimied with a pillow.
'One accident avoided, now time to go see Samuel-sensei.' Thought Naruto as he Shunshined to the assassin compound.
-Assassin compound-
Naruto arrived outside his sensei's room a few seconds later.
"Sensei are you awake?" asked Naruto.
"Yes lad, I am awake. Come here, I have a few things to give you." said Samuel. Naruto sat in a chair next to his sensei and waited to hear what his sensei had to tell him.
"Now I don't have very long to talk to you, but I have 4 gifts and 3 birthrights to give you. First is that this whole compound is now yours, treat her well and she will reveal her secrets to you. Second is an old jutsu scroll that your mother and I have found useful. Third is the summoning scroll of the eagles. My fourth and final gift to you is my knowledge of Fuinjutsu and a scroll that contains my ninjato and the style I used, both you will find useful." Said Samuel as he raised his hand and placed a finger on Naruto's forehead. Naruto felt a strange sensation that soon turned into a splitting headache.
"Sorry if it's painful, but you will have all my memories on Fuinjutsu; now on to your birthrights. The first was your mother's katana and her Kenjutsu style. Both are in a scroll on the top shelf in the library. The second is a scroll about the Uzumaki bloodlines; the scroll is in the same place as the other and the scrolls that I have given you are right under them. Now your final birthright is with the hokage. Take this letter to him and he should give you the scroll it is in." said Samuel as he drifted back to sleep.
"Thank you sensei." Said Naruto as he stood up and made his way to the library to retrieve the scrolls.
The compound's library was massive. In total there were 100 shelves full of books and scrolls. Yet he found what he was looking for easily, most likely because the shelf was encased in glass with a red swirl on it. The first scroll said chains and the second scroll said whirlpool style and katana. Naruto also took the jutsu scroll, the scroll with his sensei's ninjato and kenjutsu style, and the summoning contract.
Naruto sealed the scrolls in a seal on his arm so he could read them later, but right now he needed to meet his team for a mission.
-Two weeks later-
Naruto felt empty. It had been a week since his sensei had died from his illness, yet he still felt sad. He had buried his sensei in the assassin graveyard, and also was placed on the memorial stone. A day after his sensei was buried all the knowledge that his sensei gave to him about seals slowly was released into his mind. It felt like he had been hit with a hammer to the head when he had woken up the next day. Though he could only make two of many seals his sensei learned/made because his calligraphy was horrible.
Naruto also unsealed his sensei's ninjato and his mother's katana. His diseased sensei's ninjato was pure black, blade and all. His mother's katana was red, but the hilt of the blade was blue. All in all they were both beautiful blades.
He was now making his way up to the monument to the fallen Shinobi. When he arrived he saw that Kakashi was there staring at the monument with a regretful look in his eye.
"Sensei, is this where you are when you are late?" asked Naruto.
"Yes." Replied Kakashi.
"Who have you lost?"
"My team and sensei. Who have you lost Naruto?"
"My sensei." Said Naruto as he placed a grey flower on the monument.
"You were trained by someone else?" asked Kakashi.
"Yes. I have a question for you. Would the people who you have lost be happy that you drown yourself in pity and regret?" asked Naruto.
"No, they wouldn't."
"I will see you tomorrow sensei." Said Naruto as he walked to the assassin compound.
-Hokage tower-
Hiruzen was battling every Kage's worst enemy outside of wartime, paperwork. He knew that there was an easier way to complete the paperwork but he didn't know how.
'I'm getting too old for this stuff. Hmmm… Lowering the passing grade to become ninja… denied.' Thought Hiruzen as he threw the paper in the denied tray.
"Enter Kakashi." Said Hiruzen as he leaned back in his chair as Kakashi hopped in through the window.
"Well what is this visit about Kakashi?"
"Yes, Naruto had been taught before he entered the academy. A man named Samuel múinteoir. (I may not be correct but it should mean teacher.)
"So he still lived after the destruction of his order. Samuel was an old friend of mine growing up. We grew up as fellow ninja and fought together during the 3 great ninja wars. In the second great ninja war he was inducted into a brotherhood of assassins. Samuel rose up through the ranks of the assassins quickly. But soon after he joined, the brotherhood been deemed a problem and began to be slaughtered by minor Shinobi nations. Soon he and four others were all that were left and went their separate ways. Each assassin chose one of the major Shinobi nations to hide in. Samuel tried to rebuild the brotherhood here in Konoha but was denied by the council. Though he still built a compound somewhere close to Konoha. He taught a few of our ninja to be assassins but he still outlived all of them. Though now that he is dead and has taught Naruto the ways of the assassins." Said Hiruzen.
"Well that is surprising." Said Kakashi.
"Also there is one other thing you should know-," said Hiruzen.
-Training ground 7, next morning-
Naruto was sitting in a tree directly over Satsuki reading his Uzumaki scroll of bloodlines, and it seemed that he could possibly have chakra chains like his mother.
Satsuki decided to not hide behind her henge any longer and thought it was time to show who she really was. A few minutes later Sakura showed up with a confused look on her face. Kakashi was hiding in a tree nearby unknown to two members of team seven.
"Who are you and where is Sasuke-kun?" asked Sakura. (Gag)
"I am, or rather I was Sasuke. My real name is Satsuki." Answered the brunette.
"YOU LIE! SASUKE-KUN IS MALE!" yelled Sakura. (Screeched)
As soon as that was said, Sakura went to punch Satsuki but as the blow was about to land a thin single silver chain shot out from the tree above her, and rapped around her arm.
An emotionless voice was soon heard from the tree, "I finally got a chain to form, and Sakura what she says is true, the Sasuke we all knew never existed. Also, Kakashi get down here before I pull you down."
Both girls looked up to see Naruto with a chain extending from his hand.
"Mah, mah. No need to be in a hurry now." Said Kakashi as he hopped down from the tree.
"I still can't believe Sasuke is really a girl." Said Sakura as she sat down under the same tree Satsuki was sitting under.
"Well don't worry about that. What you need to worry about is me training you down to the bone." Said Kakashi.
"Sakura, to be blunt your skills as a ninja are pitiful. Your Taijutsu is terrible, your strength is the same as a civilian's, your chakra is almost non-existent, and your stealth is non-existent. You will need to buy darker clothes and work on your stealth on your own. During training with me you will be wearing weights on your arms and legs and running around the training ground until you drop every morning to build up your chakra, strength, and stamina. Also quit dieting. You will need all the energy you can get." Said Kakashi.
"Satsuki, you will be doing the same as Sakura but with more weight, and we will be working on chakra control. Now Naruto, you are looking for someone to teach you advanced Kenjutsu and Fuinjutsu?"
"Yes sensei."
"Well I know of someone who can teach you fuinjutsu but he isn't near Konoha right now, but the two kenjutsu users I know are in Konoha and would love to teach you. Look for someone who has a bad cough named Hayate, and look for a woman with purple hair named Yugao. Now today we will be working on chakra control. Namely climbing trees without our hands." Said Kakashi as he walked up a tree.
"Now how you do this is you channel chakra through your feet to stick to the surface. Too little chakra and you fall, too much and you get launched off the tree." Said Kakashi.
The two girls of team seven started the exercise but Naruto didn't.
"Naruto why aren't you climbing trees?" asked Kakashi.
"I already can sensei, along with water walking and kunai balancing." Said Naruto.
"Well then I you are dismissed from training today, go find Hayate and Yugao." Said a baffled Kakashi.
-Training ground 13-
Naruto watched from a tree as two ninja were sparing in kenjutsu.
'Damn, they are good. I know the basics of my mother's Uzu no Dansu and my sensei's style but they can beat me without breaking a sweat. OH SHIT.' Thought Naruto as he ducked when two katana blades passed over his head right where his neck was a moment ago.
Naruto abandoned the tree he was in and landed on the ground. Naruto unsheathed both his sensei's ninjato and his mother's katana, and quickly stood Uzu no Dansu form to block the two blades aimed to take his head off. After blocking stabs, slices, and other attacks for a few minutes the two ninja backed off.
"You fight well. Who taught you?" asked the male ninja. (I am not writing in Hayate's coughing)
"Well my former sensei taught me a little. Though he passed away before he could teach me anymore. Anyways I was told that I could find some teachers to help me, and from what I was told you must be Hayate." Said Naruto in a dull tone.
"Shame about your sensei, but from what I observed you are already Chunin level in kenjutsu. We would be happy to teach you," said Hayate.
As soon as he said that Yugao attacked Naruto and started another bout of kenjutsu sparing, but Hayate sat back and looked for any mistakes in Naruto's form.
After a few clashes between the two Yugao swung the dull side of her katana towards Naruto's hand and smacked his mother's katana out of his hands.
"Son of a bitch." Naruto cried out as his hand swelled up, and was slapped on the head with the flat part of Yugao's blade.
"Language mister." Scolded Yugao.
"Béarla, ciallóidh bean." Said Naruto as he vanished into the shadows of the trees. (English, mean woman)
"Fantomu no dansu." (Dance of the Phantom) Naruto leapt out of the shadows and slashed at Yugao's arm and also retrieved his mother's katana but sheathed it. Naruto then vanished.
Soon Yugao was covered in cuts but Naruto had even more cuts and a few gashes.
"Well you sure gave Yugao a run for her money come back tomorrow when you can." Said Hayate. Wile the two males were talking a brunette with red eyes and a strange dress walked up with her team to talk to Yugao.
When Kurenai saw the wounds on Yugao she was furious. She asked Yugao who did that to her and was told Naruto did it. Most of Kurenai's team couldn't believe Naruto was that powerful already. Though Kurenai walked over and whacked Naruto over the head.
"SON OF A BITCH THAT HURT! What is it with me getting hit in the head today?" asked Naruto as he rubbed his head only to get hit much harder by both Yugao and Kutenai.
"Language." Scolded both women.
"Anglicus vos stricte mulieres!" yelled Naruto as he ran from both women.
(English you strict women)
Hayate sighed as he watched Naruto dodge both women and run for dear life.
AND CUT. Sorry for taking so long. My mind is still scrambled and I am trying to make each chapter longer. Please rate and review and tell me how I'm doing.
