Hello again! Welcome to the second chapter of the story "Naruto The Hunter"!
I thank you in advance for all the support and advice to improve!
Thanks and I accept the suggestion, "Broken Brother Matthew"!
Soo… Yes, I need a Beta! Now, whoever wants to be my Beta send PM and explain more or less how a Beta works
And what about the story idea that I published, well do you want me to write a story based on that idea?
I apologize again for the errors that you will find for sure, until I have a beta there is not much else I can do.
AN: I have nothing!
Let's go to the story!
A new world, a new dream and a new power!
When Naruto finally became aware, he knew there was something wrong. First his body, he did not know how to explain, but he felt much lighter than normal, on the other hand it hurt a lot to move, he can prove this fact when he tried to sit on the bed where he was. Yes, try because as soon as he pushed his arms, to put himself in a better position, his body screamed in agony.
According to the place where he was, after a lot of effort and a few tears shed (although he denied with all his strength that he cried), Naruto realized that he was in a very 'normal' room if he could say, with only two dressers on each side of the bed, with the one on his right having a glass of water, which he drank in an instant, despite his body's protests that he moved, and a medium-sized window to his right, there was not much else to say about the room. And that is the problem, he did not recognize the room.
And third would be the biggest problem, because when he looked out the window, well, let's just say he was sure he wasn't in Konoha.
"Am I in Suna?" Naruto thought after looking at the sand horizon that stretched outside the window.
Naruto was taken out of his thoughts when the door to his room opened. From the door came an old man, of medium height, with short white hair and very weak, dark brown eyes and many wrinkles adorned his face. He wore a simple white blouse with beige pants and black sandals. For a brief moment the man reminded him of his 'Jiji' who had passed away not so long ago.
"Finally awake boy? I could see that not! " said the old man as he entered the room. "Some more unconscious time and I would think you were dead." I said laughing at the end. Naruto made a face of confusion, from the moment the old man spoke he did not notice anything he said.
"What?"Naruto asked in complete confusion. "What are you talking about, Oji-san ?"
After Celiko heard the boy speak, he was confused, it didn't sound like any language he knew or had heard, it seemed to have many vowels of the phrase he heard from the boy.
Dissipating his confusion Celiko pointed to the boy wanting to know his name, but the blonde just continued to look at him in confusion, sighing he pointed at himself and said "Celiko" and then pointed at the boy.
Naruto realizing that the old man's name was Celiko, pointed to himself and said "Uzumaki Naruto" and made the position of "nice guy" with a smile and a thumbs up. Which made Celiko laugh a little at the boy's introduction.
Celiko was about to say something when she heard something snoring, seeing the blond being embarrassed the ex-hunter laughed and made a 'wait' movement with his hand and left the room.
Naruto didn't have to wait long for Celiko to return, with a tray of food now containing toast, fried eggs and orange juice. Taking the tray to Naruto's bed and putting it on his lap, Celiko left the room again.
Naruto started to salivate only with the smell of the food that was now in his lap, quickly searching for the food utensils, Naruto looked strangely at a 'fork', not that he knows the name of the utensil. Shrugging, he picked up his fork and after a fight he started eating.
When Celiko returned to the room, she brought some books, papers, pencils and erasers with her. Getting close to the bed the ex hunter sits on the edge of the bed, "Well my boy it looks like we are going to have a long way to go"
Naruto still not noticing anything, tilted his head to the confused side, looking quite like a fox, with big blue eyes shining with still a little innocence and childish curiosity, but behind that innocence and curiosity Celiko recognized the other brightness of the eyes right away of Naruto, a glow that he had already seen in his own eyes during his long life whenever he looked in the mirror, loneliness.
And if there is one thing that Celiko has learned throughout his life, it is that the eyes are the window of the soul and the eyes of Naruto are very expressive. Coming out of his daydreams, "So shall we start?" asked Celiko with a malicious smile.
Little did Naruto know the suffering that would pass in the coming weeks.
(3 weeks later)
Last week Naruto came to a conclusion and honestly a week later he still didn't know how to feel. He was in another world, at least that's what he thought, because none of the maps that Celiko showed of this world called 'Remnant', he saw the land of fire, and it seems that there were no Shinobi, but hunters and hunters who killed these monsters called Grimm, at least that's what he realized, after all he only recently started learning the language so by means of part exclusion he came to this conclusion.
And how did he feel about being in a new world? Very honestly Naruto was in a mixture of feelings, on the one hand he was desolate, he would never see Ero-sennin, his Baa-chan, Iruka-sensei, Shizune-nee nor the Ichiraku family the only people who believed in him and in your dream of being the next Hokage. And his dream of being a Hokage is now impossible too, another thing that left him very dejected, after all, since Naruto knew he wanted to be Hokage, it was his ultimate goal, what he most yearned to be recognized by the Village as Naruto and not like Kyuubi in Kitsune.
And this is where the contradictory part of his feelings comes in, while Naruto missed his precious people so much and can no longer be Hokage, he can't help but part of him being happy to be in this place, after all, here nobody knew who he was to Kyuubi in Kitsune, here he wouldn't have to struggle to be recognized, here he wouldn't be despised or avoided, here he wouldn't have to change anyone's opinion, it was like starting over and a part of Naruto couldn't stop staying a little happy with that.
So now 3 weeks after arriving in this world, we find Naruto in Celiko's living room contemplating his life and trying to understand his feelings. His body was recovered after a week in bed, making it 2 weeks since he can move, which surprised him a lot because he never stayed in bed so long and found it quite annoying, he hated being stuck in bed, it reminded him the hospital! Just remembering that place Naruto shuddered, thank Kami Celiko for bringing him home and not taking him to the hospital.
Naruto was taken out of his thoughts when Celiko entered the living room.
"Hey kid, for a week you have that wounded fox face, what's up?" asked Celiko with a smile
"Uhhhhh" Naruto thinks for a moment as he will answer, on the one hand he has everything to thank the old man, but on the other he does not want to tell you everything, because despite having helped him a lot, having given him a bed and a place to eat, Naruto was a little afraid. " I may not be able to tell the truth, but maybe I will be able to tell half truths… "
"Well ..." Naruto replies taking a while to organize his thoughts and to search for the right words, after all he is still learning a new language and although he himself admits that it is a little ... slow ... in terms of studies from the book , when you have nothing to do and you have no one who understands your language, well there is not much you can do other than learn the new language. And that was what Naruto did during these 3 weeks, even after getting out of bed, he studied every day to be able to understand, write, read and speak the new language.
"I… don't know what to do… uhhh… I came from a village, but after a few… problems… I can't go back… it's impossible to go back and now I don't know what to do, I had a dream but now it's impossible to fulfill it and I will no longer be able to see the people who supported me… but on the other hand am I happy to start again if you can understand me? Naruto said a little dejected and with a lot of pauses in the middle of the sentences and a very strong accent, but honestly nobody could blame him after all he is still learning.
"Boy…" Celiko said, ignoring for the moment the minimum amount of information he gave, "He was very vague with the information… almost cautious, and to say 'people who supported him' means that he is probably an orphan" thought Celiko while approached a downed Naruto. Putting a hand on his shoulder, Naruto looked at the older man.
"Life will never go as we want as a child, we can plan, but we can never be sure that tomorrow is guaranteed, and the 'your precious people', you can never see them again but that does not mean that you will stop liking them or you will forget them, if you really care about them, take them in your heart, they may not be physically with you, but their ideas may continue with you here… "Celiko says and touches Naruto's chest with a finger at the place of the heart. "So you will never forget them and you will always honor them. And the dream is very sure that you will discover a new dream to follow. "
Naruto didn't know what to say, for a moment I look down, before lifting my head and looking into Celiko's eyes, with a metaphorical flame burning in his eyes.
"You are right, old man, I cannot be sorry here forever, the people who care about me, would not want to see me like this, but go ahead!" Naruto said with conviction in his eyes. "But ..." Naruto said hesitantly. "I don't know wath to do..."
"Tell me, Naruto, can you fight? Or have you ever been interested in combat? " Celiko asked with a mischievous smile.
"Yes, old man, I know how to fight! I train hard to stay strong, to protect my precious people! " says Naruto with a giant smile on his face.
"Stop calling me old! Idiot!" says Celiko with an angry comic face and giving a top on Naruto's head, which caused Naruto to shout 'Itaaiii'. Recomposing if Celiko then asks a question that would change Remnant's world forever…
"So Naruto why don't you become a Hunter?"
"Uhmmm… a Hunter? Ah those who kill those monsters? " asks Naruto with a curious look.
"Yes, a Hunter! A Hunter protects people from monsters called Grimm, with his weapons and aura along with his countenance! I was a Hunter myself! " said Celiko proudly.
"Wow ..." says Naruto with stars in his eyes, while thinking "The Hunters are the shinobi of this world!" and looking at Celiko in awe. "And do you really think I can become an Hunter is that I no longer have chakra?" says Naruto when he remembers the other condition that he noticed in the short time he had at Celiko's house, he no longer had Chakra, he tried to make Rasengan and Kage Bushin no Jutsu, it was desperate to know that all that chakra training went for nothing.
"How many times do I ..." Celiko starts to say before taking a deep breath and refraining from hitting the blond boy. "Yes Naruto I think you can be a hunter, I don't know what this 'Catra' is but the Hunters use aura and their Semblance, each person has a different face because the Semblante is a power that is based on some characteristic your personality! " Seliko says in her lecture mode as he leads Naruto to the back of the house.
Arriving at the rear of the house, Naruto saw what could be a 'possible garden'. Yes, a 'possible garden' as they are almost in the middle of the desert and the heat is scorching so not many plants grow here. It was a decent-sized clearing, with a solid earth floor and a little bit of grass on the edges of the clearing.
"To become a hunter you have to go to school, where you will learn about the Grimm, about the dust, about the aura and weapons, as well as tactics and other related things, after graduating from the first academy, you can enter a superior academy , where they will train you even more rigorously and you will start doing missions. "Said Celiko" Now that I have told you a good part of the path that you have to follow to be a Hunter, what is your answer Naruto? "
Naruto looks down for a moment, before lifting his head and pointing at Celiko.
"I may no longer be able to become a Hokage, but that does not mean that I will stand still regretting what could have been! So yes! I Naruto Uzumaki will become the greatest hunter ever dattebayo! I promise!" says Naruto, starting frowning and a little sad that he could no longer fulfill his old dream, but ends up with a lot of conviction and a giant smile that stretches his wiskers marks on his cheeks.
Celiko looks at Naruto with a smile that, unlike the others, is not malicious, but genuine happiness.
"Ah but old man I don't have the money to go to school, or place to live." Naruto says frowning and a little embarrassed due to his lack of money. Everything he had was with him. His old orange jacket and orange pants were completely destroyed, the clothes he was currently wearing were borrowed by Celiko.
Naruto wears a white t-shirt with black shorts and has sandals too big for his size, as well as the blouse and shorts. The only thing left as a memory of his old home was the iron plate with the Konoha symbol that he left inside Celiko's house for fear that something will happen to her and the necklace that Tsunade gave her around the neck.
"Don't worry about it Naruto, you can stay here to live with me, after all I live alone and from school don't worry that I pay." Celiko said with conviction
"But ... but old man, I can't accept you have already done too much for me!" said Naruto completely shocked.
"Naruto… I won't live many more years, I always lived alone and I ended up never having children, having some company here will taste good, think about it with a selfish request from this old man… for more I can teach you everything I know about being a hunter! So tomorrow I'm going to enroll you in Oscuro Academy to start learning about being a hunter and after school I train you here every day! " said Celiko with slight regret at first, if there is one thing he regrets if it is never having found love and having children.
"Old man ..." Naruto murmured with a hint of tears from his eyes, before making a bow. "It will be an honor to have you as a teacher! And I will be the best student possible! I will be proud of you! I promise dattebayo! " said Naruto with conviction still bent.
"I know you are going to Naruto, I know you are going to ..." said Celiko watching Naruto get back into a straight position with a smile on his face.
"Soooo ... can we start?" asked an excited Naruto, with that smile from ear to ear always present on his face.
"Hahahaha. Why not!" said Celiko with a smile. "Well Naruto today as it will be the first day we are not going to do anything very tiring, so today we are going to start by unlocking your aura!"
"So what is Celiko-sensei aura? I know you said that the countenance was something to do with the soul and the personality ... "Celiko can only look with a sweat drop at Naruto's simplistic explanation of aura. "...But how do you know I have an aura?" asked Naruto, afraid of not having aura and not being able to become a hunter since he no longer has chakra.
"Before answering the question Naruto what is 'sensei'?" asked Celiko curiously.
"Ah sensei means teacher, this is how we refer to those who teach us back home." Naruto says with a sad smile when he remembers a man with a scar on his nose.
Seeing his student's mood drop, Celiko decide to go back to the previous topic, to get Naruto out of sad thoughts.
"Well Naruto, Semblance and aura are interconnected, because the aura is the physical manifestation of the soul and Semblance is a characteristic power of each person who uses aura to activate." Celiko said in his lecture mode. "As for the second question, all living things have an aura, the only exception being the Grimm."
"Uhhmm ... I think I understand" Naruto said waving to himself with his eyes closed.
"For some reason, I don't believe it" thought Celiko in amusement.
"So how do I activate that aura?" asked Naruto
"Well, there are two ways to activate an aura, the first is someone to unlock for you by forcing the aura to break free, the second way is sofring immense stress. Clearly we are going to do the first one so extend your arm Naruto. " Celiko said while waiting for Naruto to reach out.
Naruto quickly stretched out his arm, eager to unlock his aura and find out what his semblance is.
Celiko grabs Naruto's hand and closes his eyes to concentrate, to try to guide his aura to Naruto's to force her to unlock. Then, with great care and precision, he stretched his aura and when he touched Naruto's…
"This cannot be possible!"Celiko thought completely shocked. "I have never seen an aura as dense as this! And so big it must be almost my size and he is 12 years old ! "
Forcing more of his aura into Naruto's hand, so much so that he could already see a green glow back from Celiko, the ex-hunter feels that he is about to unlock Naruto's aura.
"Ok Naruto here it goes" says Celiko with the last push of aura.
Do you know those scenes in movies when it looks like some important scene is going to happen and it looks like time stops? Well Celiko feels that this is precisely what happened.
Then suddenly Naruto's aura appears with a bang
* CRASH!
Celiko opens his eyes when he feels a huge pressure on his shoulders and a giant crash that made the surrounding wildlife flee and what he saw astounded him.
Naruto had his eyes closed and a neutral expression, but that was not what shocked the old man, what shocked the old hunter is the aura that Naruto released and the effects it had!
Naruto's aura was bright red that covered his entire body (AN: it is the same as King Crimson aura, for reference search: "aura of King Crimson"), but the most surprising thing was that the floor where Naruto was cracked completely due to how dense and powerful his aura was!
"This child…! It's impossible!"Celiko thought as he looked at Naruto in amazement, until something else caught his attention, now that Naruto's aura was unlocked and as it was still connected to him, Celiko could feel Naruto's aura and within Naruto's own aura there was a barrier that prevented him from releasing more aura and as incredible as it seems he couldn't unlock this wall, it's as if Naruto himself didn't ready.
"Does this mean that he has two Semblances? Or does it mean that his Semblance can evolve further? I have no idea!"Cekiko thought without words.
"Naruto you can open your eyes." Celiko says as he gets rid of his shock.
When Naruto opens his eyes he sees his teacher still looking at him wide-eyed, looking down to see his hand still clinging to his teacher's sees that his arm is covered in red aura!
"Congratulations Naruto! You unlocked the aura! " says Celiko as he lets go of Naruto's hand and sees Naruto looking at his body. "Now try to deactivate, to prevent you from spending more aura, to avoid getting tired."
"Ok Celiko-sensei!" says Naruto as he closes his eyes and after a while Naruto's shrouded aura has disappeared.
"Well Naruto now that you have your aura unlocked we can find out what your Semblance is! But don't be discouraged if you don't find out today, several people only find out what their semblance is later on so there is nothing to worry about. " Celiko says when taking Naruto to a part of the clearing where there were several stones.
"So how are we going to find out what my Semblance Celiko-sensei is?" asked Naruto curious to know what power he will have.
"First let's see if you have a healing semblance, I'm going to make a cut on my hand and you are going to try to heal the cut."
"I'm ready sensei!" says Naruto with an excited smile to begin with.
Celiko crouches down and picks up a stone with a sharp point and cuts off a little bit of her hand and cuts off her aura to prevent it from healing the cut.
Naruto puts his hand over the wound and tries to summon the power of his aura to heal. Minutes pass and we see a frustrated Naruto with eyes closed and his aura around.
"Ok, enough Naruto already, clearly you don't have a healing Semblance, let's try something else." Celiko says as she crouches down and this time picks up a bunch of rocks.
"Do you see these stones Naruto? You are going to try to dodge them all to see if you have a semblance of speed, as you keep dodging I'm going to throw stronger and faster, okay? "
"Yes, sensei!" says Naruto excitedly, as he moves away from Celiko
"Ok, here you go!" says Celiko and starts throwing stones
The first 5 stones were easy to deflect, Naruto showed to have a lot of speed and agility for a young boy, from the 6 stone things started to get more difficult…
But it was the 12 stone that left Celiko's mouth wide open!
From the 10th stone Celiko began to use aura to reinforce the small stones to go faster, after dodging the 10th and 11th at great cost Naruto saw himself with little impulse to get out of the way of the 12th stone and that's when it happened.
The little stone that glowed green was thrown precisely towards Naruto's face, so when the stone was a hand away from hitting Naruto in the face an etheric arm comes out of Naruto's chest and holds the stone between his thumb and his indicator!
Celiko can only look shocked when he sees an arm that wasn't Naruto's holding the stone.
Meanwhile, Naruto was examining the ethereal arm that came out of his chest. It was a humanoid white arm that had the same red aura that Naruto had when he unlocked his aura, in his hands he had black fingerless gloves (AN: Star Platinum gloves only in black instead of purple) that let you see white fingers and white sharp claw-like nails.
Celiko can only continue to look until he finally says...
"I'm too old for this shit"
End of Chapter 2!
AN: Hello again! Yes, I just gave Naruto a Stand! And yes it's his semblance. Ok now it's time to explain some questions you may have after reading the chapter:
Q: Didn't Naruto accept too easily that he won't be Hokage anymore and won't see his friends again?
A: First you have to see that this is a Naruto before Shippuden, so he doesn't have Jiraiya's ideals because he didn't make the training trip, and don't have many bonds in the village. Second, Naruto still hasn't fully accepted it, things don't work out that way, and you'll see several moments in the next chapters of Naruto thinking about his original home longingly. Third Naruto here was still hated by most of the village so that 'happy' part of him.
Q: What are you going to do next? Will you show Naruto training and his years at Oscuro Academy or will there be a time jump?
A: In the next chapter we will go to the canon so there will be a time jump of 4 years, Naruto will go to Beacon Academy at 16 and will be explained in the next chapter as well. These 4 years will be explained through flashbacks throughout history.
Q: Did you give Naruto a Stand? What skills will you have ?
A: Yes, I gave Naruto a Stand, his own Stand, not one already made. I said that the power had to do with JoJo;)! Now regarding the skills of the Stand, this is what I want to ask.
What power do you want the Naruto Stand to have? It can be any of the JoJo universe including the parts that have not yet been adapted (Steel Ball Run is the best part!), Or it may even be an invented power that does not exist in the JoJo universe, it is up to you here and then the idea that I find best I will use!
Before we move on I had an idea for the power of the Naruto stand, how about not making it super op, soo when the Naruto stand touches you you freeze in time, and it lasts (for now) 5 seconds? It is a less op version of the power of the Star Platinum and I think I would fit well in the RWBY universe because it is not hyper mega op.
So tell me what power you want the Naruto stand to have, my recommendation or yours, I will keep an eye on the reviews!
Also what name do you want Stand to be? Also say in the reviews!
Stay healthy!
Until the next update!
