Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Log Horizon. This is a fanfiction used to help with my writing skills and the fact I enjoy writing stories like these. All I own is the ideas and sub-plots used to make this fanfiction and explore Log Horizon and Naruto in a different way.


Naruto walked through the streets of Konoha, frowning at what he saw. It's not too bad, but this could get bad any moment. Naruto thought, seeing long lines to many shops. Civilians and ninja alike were not too pleased with the situation, but were standing in line with a fragile sliver of patience.

Shiroe was right. Even though I gave back the staff in Theldesia, I have the cloned item of his staff still in my bag here. However, there's no signs of it saying it is cloned or a fake. I wonder if that means I can clone high quality gear and it will be just like the original? Naruto pondered before reaching where he want to be. However, will what I have be enough to prove what happen? Naruto gulped, standing right before the administrative part of the Konoha Academy. I got to get them to believe me or else things will get bad since the Hokage in Theldesia. Naruto walked into the building.

"What is going on!" Naruto flinched, finding a shouting match going on in the room.

"How is it every time I cook, it turns into mush?"

"Where's the Hokage? He should know what is going on!"

The office was full of ninja and civilians, demanding answers from those on desk duty. However, from the look of things, Konoha was now at a standstill. Most of the officer workers were Jonin instead of the normal Chunin Naruto always saw. A smart move in Naruto's mind as the Jonin could peacefully resist anyone who got out of line without killing them.

"Everyone calm down!" A roar easily silence everyone. A man with scars on his face got in front of everyone. "I know everyone is confused and annoyed, but we are trying to figure out what is going on as well. At this moment, the mission desk and such services are closed down and we are setting up a missing persons area. We gotten report of shinobi just disappearing into thin air along with the odd food issue. I would like your cooperation and give the Chunin and Jonin that will be going through the room your name and statements so we can solve this issue!"

Morino Ibiki? Naruto thought, reading the Jonin's name through the status screen. Don't see him around much, but he probably is in one of the more active branches of the village with how his face looks. Naruto squeezed through the crowd towards the Jonin. "Ah, Ibiki, can I talk to you?" The Jonin looked at Naruto with shock. "It's kind of important."

"Kid, you can wai-" Ibiki stopped the Jonin who was about to scold Naruto.

"How do you know my name, kid?" Ibiki asked, "If I remember from the reports, you're one of the Genin being tested today, aren't ya."

"Yeah. And just before we could celebrate with becoming Team 7, my comrades and sensei teleported." Naruto said, getting the most interest and killer intent filled glares in his life. Oh, boy. I might get killed for real here. "However, I roughly know what is sort of going on."

"You do? How about we talk in the back?" Naruto shivered at the grin on the man's face.

Maybe it's not might, but will be killed. Naruto thought, but followed the Jonin into one of the small meeting rooms in the back. Stay calm, Naruto. Just think of it as an annoying tea party and you'll be fine! Naruto took a deep breath, trying to calm his nerves down. He did not want to goof this up considering the situation.

"So, kid, let me know." Ibiki sat on a couch, motioning Naruto to do the same. "What the hell is going on? I woke up this morning and found I couldn't cook worth a flip and just an hour or so ago, reports of shinobi and kunoichi disappearing. How can a twelve year old know what is going on?" Ibiki asked, giving Naruto a stern glare.

He's scarier than the Academic Guild when they are asking to study me. Naruto thought before taking another deep breath to calm down. "Sadly, I don't know the exact cause. However, I do know the side effects currently going through Konoha at this moment. Also, if you can get a complete list of missing people, I will try to get to them as I did with Iruka, Kakashi, Sasuke, Sakura, and the Old Man Hokage."

"Understood." The man said, motioning Naruto to continue.

"The reason no one can cook is due to they don't have the cooking skill or subclass to do it. Though, even if you could cook, the food would be flavorless as any food made through the menu interface. It seems that change happened with the first wave that I experienced while in my body in Theldesia. I would not be surprised with seeing cooks and such are suffering from this that other professions like blacksmiths and such will be experiencing the same issues." Naruto said, giving a stern look right back at Ibiki.

"The second wave caught me by surprise. The missing ninja are now in another world called Theldesia. I wasn't teleported since I already had a body in that world and I switch back and forth when I sleep. I did not come here sooner as before the second wave due to I was trying to figure out the extent of the changes to give the Old Man proper information and then I knocked myself out after the second wave with realize the circuit that was used to teleport my sensei and party members. So far, I only have the five Konoha ninja accounted for at my residence in Theldesia, but if there is more, then I will be busy combing the streets of Akiba though they might not have all landed in the same city that I live in over there." Naruto fought to keep from shaking as not a flick of emotion showed on the man's face. I am used to emotionless expressions, but the kind made by ninja are unnerving. I prefer nobles over ninja as I can at least read them when they hide their emotions.

Naruto jumped when Ibiki suddenly burst into laughter. "That's quite a story there kid! Though, if you fed bull crap like that to enemy, they would just think you were insane."

"As I thought," Naruto sighed, slumping some. "Considering how I only got the Hokage and my friends to finally realize I been telling the truth the whole time, should have seen this a mile away." Naruto said before jumping and looking behind him. Two more Jonin were standing behind him, somewhat shocked he turned to look at them.

"Uzumaki Naruto." Naruto looked at the doorway, finding both members of the Konoha Council entering the room along with another man who was bandaged up. "It's good to see you have not disappeared."

Homura and Koharu I do remember from the council… Shimura Danzo I don't know. Naruto thought, easily understanding the tension in the air. "Did you hear what I said to Ibiki?"

"Yes. I am amazed you are still spouting such nonsense at this age." Homura said, fighting back a sneer. "This is no time for your antics."

"Good. I don't have to repeat myself." Naruto sighed while standing up. "The world is changing right down to the natural laws that govern it… If my shaky memory is right, people with white eyes can see cat-chakra, right." Naruto pointed at a the Jonin with white eyes including his pupil. "Just have him check my body and you'll see."

"You're so into your nonsense of stories that you can't even remember the name of one of the noble clans of Konoha. Hyuuga-san, just do as he asks. At least we can prove he is making more nonsense and believing it." Koharu said, her voice sounding tired.

"Yes, ma'am." The Hyuuga said before making a handsign and veins popped up around his eyes as he looked at Naruto. "W-What the? H-How are you even alive!" The Hyuuga shouted, shouting at Naruto. "The only chakra in your system in the Fox's!"

"Figures. Especially since I can't use jutsu now." Everyone gave Naruto a look of shock. "Though, seems your eyes only see chakra, not the two parts that make it. Weird. I am still alive as chakra is gone, but not the two parts that make it. In Theldesia, those parts are known as HP or Anima and MP or Psyche. You die once you run out of HP, but MP is very potent for magic. Try focusing towards your forehead. That's how you can summon the UI to look at it."

"Don't fall for his prank." Danzo growled, seeing both Jonin trying to focus on their foreheads as well as Ibiki. "Uzumaki, I know you know what you are. With the Hokage missing, we are putting you under arrest."

"To make sure no one can get ahold of Kurama?" Naruto asked, getting odd looks from the adults. "At this moment, arresting me could easily cause more problems. Konoha's stability is already starting to slowly collapse. Arresting a Genin for no reason will raise eyebrows, even if I am holding a super powerful monster in my gut. However, enemy spies won't be the worse of your worries if you don't hurry and get major supply chains of ingredient items like fruits and vegetables established to keep order. That will be the only source of food if noone can get a subclass with cooking skills at the moment."

"We already have talk to merchants and several restaurants to assist in that. We have also sent out a messenger hawk to have a meeting with the Daimyo about this as well." Koharu said, giving Naruto a stern look. "Though I understand what you mentioned, we can't have you running around shouting nonsen-"

"It's not nonsense." Naruto looked at Ibiki, the man grimacing at the air before. "I am seeing this UI thing he just mentioned."

"What?" Danzo asked.

"User Interface. Also called menus for short." Naruto said, grinning at Ibiki who was giving him an apologetic look. "It allows you to see what you need from the items in your inventory down to the skills you have. It also shows you the levels of those around you and enemies along with their HP bar. I'm the only one whose HP bar is a true one while everyone who has not chosen a class has an HP bar that shows cat-chakra." Though, need to work on saying chakra instead of the way I said it before. Kind of annoying saying it the right way.

"Is that why when I try to hit the skills button, it gives me an odd message?" Ibiki said, touching the air before him.

"Hai. Sasuke and Sakura saw it as well...Ah, crap, don't tell me. Do you two see the UI?" Naruto asked in a panic, looking at the two other Jonin.

"No. I am just getting a headache." The other Jonin shrugged while the Hyuuga is still trying to make it work.

"Could it be... A beta?" Naruto said, putting his hand to his chin.

"Beta? What are you talking about, Uzumaki?" Danzo growled, "You better not be helping Naruto with a prank Morino-san."

"I'm not. I even tried to dispel it with thinking it was a genjutsu at first." Ibiki sighed, glaring at Danzo.

"Beta is basically what the other Adventurers called a test when it comes to various things." Naruto said, keeping his voice steady. "It is often to get what they call bugs and such out of new changes like new skills and item from the Expansion and Patch spells. Or as they said, I never seen it in person in Theldesia outside the effects. However, so far, I knew Kakashi, Sasuke, and Sakura had access to the UI before they teleported. Ibiki. You can touch the bars and drag them to the Friend's List icon. Do it to the council members and myself this minute. You might be also put as a beta tester as with everyone else missing."

"Gotcha kid." Ibiki said, motioning his hand through the air before blinking. "Huh? It keeps acting up when I try to put the council member's name and won't let me like it did your name."

"That kind of proves it." Naruto sighed with annoyance. "The world is probably making those not chosen as People of the Land while those chosen are mark as Adventurers in the system. There goes another idea. Ah, I guess next time I sleep, I will put major equipment and such in my bag to show proof. The only proof I got to prove you stubborn old fools is this." Naruto pulled out a piece of wood and shocked everyone when the handle of the staff appeared out of the wood. "This is one of the weapons from Theldesia. Though this staff isn't good at all for physical attacks, it's cast time boost makes it a pretty good weapon for spell casters. I asked my friend to lend to me when I realized my class and subclass was already overwritten here and needed a proper weapon for the Genin Exam and to test what changes have happened."

Though, you all don't need to know it is a clone item. Naruto thought, somewhat frozen at all the stares he was getting. Kami, this is nerve wrecking. I rather face Iruka when he's pissed or the College demanding my research than this. Naruto gulped when Ibiki stood up and put his hand on Naruto's shoulder.

"I can vouch now the kid is telling the truth. You can have a Yamanaka member look into our minds if you need more." Naruto let out a sigh of relief, looking to see Ibiki smiling at him. "If he knows what is going on, you might want to listen to him. If the same thing is happening elsewhere, we can keep a one up on the competition."

"Fine. Though, I will be having a Yamanaka come and check you both out as this is still too much for me to believe." Koharui said, pinching the bridge of her notice to fight off a headache. "I want you to stay-" Everyone froze as the air suddenly felt thicker.

Not this time! "Dispel Magic!" Naruto shouted pointing at Ibiki. Waves of bluish magic coming off Naruto's staff.

"N-Nani?" Ibiki gasped, trembling. "I-I can't move."

"1… 2… 3…"Naruto began to count as the others looked on in shock. His eyes aimed right at Ibiki's feet.

"What is going on?"" Danzo barked out as an order.

"Uzumaki somehow is blocking some kind of attack on Morino-san!" The Hyuuga shouted, looking at Ibiki. "But, whatever it is, it is still there under his feet."

"7...8...9…10…" Naruto frowned, his eyes glowing purple. It's similar to Call of Home, but far more potent. Even with dispelling the teleporting effect, the circuit still took effect partially. If this kind of complex circuit is being used… This is bad.

"Uzumaki, what are you doing?" Homura asked before everyone sensed the air getting thick again.

"It's attacking again." The Hyuuga said, glaring at the floor where Naruto saw several magical circuits in a pattern he never seen before.

"Dispel Magic!" Naruto shouted with his cooldown finishing and he saw the spell still active under Ibiki's feet, but the ninja was still there. "20 seconds. Good thing I have it to where I can cast Dispel Magic every 10 seconds. Ibiki. Listen to me carefully. Once you are teleported, tap my name on the Friend's List and tell me where you land. Even though I am at Level 90 and I have Dispel Magic to Secret, the circuit is still locked onto you and all I am doing is delaying the port. I can only hold this up for an thirty minutes at most as the drawback of the Sage subclass is doubled MP cost of using spells I get from it. Dispel Magic!" Naruto shouted, casting the Enchanter circuit again.

"G-Great. I-I had a-appointments t-this afternoon." Ibiki growled, trembling from the force on him increasing. "You're a-about to d-drop it, r-right?"

"No. If you land in Akihabara, head to the Guild Hall Building. I will meet you there as soon as I can get myself somewhere to sleep and get things straighten out here. If not Akihabara, sell some of the kunai and items you can let go of for the common currency. You won't have any money as my friends found out. Dispel Magic." Naruto said calmly, grimacing as his circuit stopped the teleportation again, but noticed now the circuits glowing and seeming to deflect his magic some. A barrier? Crap!

"I'll explain a lot more stuff later on, but biggest thing is don't underestimate the world you're about to be teleported into. It's a whole new beast compared to this world. I died a few hundred times there, though I have no clue if the Cathedral still works now." Naruto said, glaring at the magic circuit. I got at least one more I think before it will fully block. "Also, grab ingredient items fast or else you will be eating mushy crackers for food only. Magic Dispel!" Naruto shouted, launching the circuit only to see the waves blocked and within an instant, both Ibiki and the circuit was gone. "Dammit… Worse, I didn't get to memorize the circuit." Naruto growled, tapping the staff on the floor. "Whatever circuit that was also covered it's tracks. Damn impressive considering how much mana such a complex circuit needs. Especially if it is effecting more than one world."

"It's gone?" Danzo asked, looking at the Hyuuga Jonin.

"Y-Yes, sir. I never seen anything like it before." The Hyuuga said, slightly trembling. "What is going on?"

"As I said before. The world's laws are changing. Though, I don't get is what it means for both Theldesia and this world nor the extent. However, I just hoping whatever this is isn't planning another mass teleport like it did to all the Adventurers. That would teleport every ninja in Konoha easily, possibly even all the major ninja villages from what I got from Shiroe." Naruto said, clenching his fist while looking at where Ibiki once stood. That kind of magic is definitely way above battle and-No... It's world class. Or possibly bigger since we are talking about two to three worlds instead of just one? Just what the hell is doing this?

"Uzumaki Naruto. Under the power of the Konoha Council, you are currently under arrest." Danzo said, pointing at Naruto.

"Yeah-Wait, what!" Naruto shouted, doing a double take at Danzo. "Didn't you just hear me! Just slap some ANBU on my ass instead of giving fuel to the sparks forming here in Konoha." Naruto roared in anger.

"You're under arrest for being a spy and possibly the culprit behind the current events." Danzo said, getting confused looks from even the real council members. "The amount of knowledge you have and what you just shown give plenty of proof. However, what I want to ask is why you have exposed yourself instead of going into hiding?"

"Because I am not the culprit. I am just as perplex and scared as everyone else, though I am keeping it together barely," Naruto sighed, letting his nerves take over and slightly tremble under Danzo intense glare. "Also, Konoha is my home and I am not about to let it suffer if I can stop it. Same goes with Akiba, but there is only so much I can do as an Adventurer there as there is no laws there. Here has laws and rules that can keep what I expect in Akiba in the coming days from happening here." Naruto said with a frown. I don't know what I can do. Even though I am an Adventurer, the best I can do is provide shelter and information in Akiba… And now it looks like I might be in bigger trouble here. Naruto thought, seeing Danzo studying him up.

"The fact you have alliance to another village makes me skeptical that is true." Danzo said, a hint of disgust in his voice.

"Akiba is on another world. There is no Konoha there, hence why I kinda needed to place to call home. Though, you can't call Akiba a village or even a city. There is no structure within the city outside the guilds when you compare it to Konoha. I am actually a solo with no guild affiliation. I was planning to in fact make a one person guild and put it down as Konoha Ninja with passing the Genin Exam." Naruto chuckled, Though Shiroe stopped me with saying it was stupid. Maybe it would be wise if I did so now?

"That is not enough considering you do have motive to do something against Konoha." Danzo said, smirking at Naruto.

Naruto only rolled his eyes. The discrimination due to holding Kurama. Naruto sighed before sticking out his tongue.

"Is that… a seal?" Homura asked, noticing the tattooed emblem on Naruto's tongue before he pulled it back into his mouth.

"No. It's basically a birthmark to all Half-Alvs or Alv in my case: the Alv Codex" Naruto answered in a somber tone. "When the first wave hit, this body came to match up to my Adventurer body right down to even changing my race from human to Alv. If you are citing the treatment I received from Konoha as a motive, then I have just as much as a cause to do something to Theldesia. Half-Alvs as well as myself as discriminated due to a mess created by everyone centuries ago. In fact, if I had to compare what I been through to being Kurama's host, being the host was a walk in a park." Naruto said in a cold tone, fighting back the bad memories he had. If I was not an Adventurer, I would have stayed dead several times over due being an Alv.

"Also, Danzo, with the Hokage not present, there is a rule in the laws that I have to have a proper trial and I can't be imprisoned during the trial. It's a means to ensure no false imprisonment by any factions going for the title." Naruto said, giving a plain look to Danzo. "If this trial happens and the truth gets out I knew what could have been helping Konoha and was arrested, it would make the council and yourself appear to be against the village. You want a chance with such a raid?" Naruto asked, standing firm.

"If it is to protect Konoha, yes." Danzo said, also firm in his stance. "With the Hokage missing, other villages will see weakness. Hence to ensure they don't see us any weaker, we can't give mercy to any enemy."

He's the enemy in this case. Naruto thought before putting away the staff in his bag and holding his hands up. "Alright. Arrest me. I plead not guilty to begin with. However, I will peacefully do imprisonment on one condition. Let me keep all that is currently on my person. I want to make sure if one of the guards get hit by the circuit, I can delay it again and try to see what it is exactly." Naruto said, getting a grimace from Danzo. "I need better equipment since it seems who or whatever caused it realized I was delaying it and it won't be as easy next time."

"Agreed." Koharu answered before Danzo could speak, getting a shocked looked out of the man. "However, because of that, we will have elite ANBU in charge of your imprisonment and keeping this arrest private. To anyone outside this room, you simply disappeared like the others. You will be kept in a secret location within the ANBU headquarters as we can't have any chance of this information getting out."

"Hai. I understand." Naruto said, looking down. I take back what I said before. It seems Konoha might be the one in worse shape than Akiba. But, this is quite a pinch I gotten myself into. Naruto smirked as the two Jonin got next to him to help escort him. Well, just as Kanami said in the past. The bigger the pinch, the better food tastes afterward... Well, ingredients that is for everyone now.
