"Just go Naruto, I'm extremely disappointed.."
Naruto would take a step back before walking back to rejoin the class,
Just what is happening to me?
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Returning back to class, It was the final segment of the Genin test, the air felt uneasy when he walked in at first it was admiration since he is the son of Hokage, but now it feels like unease, and fear, he's not completely sure if he likes this feeling, but another part of him, a deep part of him relished in it. As he made his way to his seat, he could still feel eyes of the other students on him, this is the first time they had ever seen a spar like that, and to them it's considered brutal, he broke his brother nose to smithereens for goodness sakes. Naruto sighs as he slumped over his desk just praying for this day to end. Regarding the final portion of the exam, each student was individually called into a separate room, it took a while for Naruto's name to be called, He saw Menma arriving in the class with a bandage over his nose, he shot a scowl at his brother as he went to his seat. After three minutes, Menma's name was called, as he rosed and headed to the separate room.
Menma would then arrive back to the classroom, with the symbol of the leaf wrap around his forehead, after his arrival, Mito was called forward. Three minute later Mito arrived with the headband wrapped around her head, looking like a splitting image of their mother. Soon, It was Naruto's turn. Arriving in the room there he would see both Iruka and Mizuki sitting behind their desk. Iruka looked at Naruto, his eyes would drift to his knee, noticing the stain blood and frowned, he sighed before opening his mouth,
"Alright Naruto, begin with the transformation technique…" Iruka stated, Naruto nodded as he placed his hands together and in a cloud of smoke erupting from his form, no longer stood a 12 year old child but now stood the gallant form of Jiraiya, the teacher of his father, Mizuki clapped impressed, while Iruka turned to face his clipboard, checking a box beside Naruto's name. Mizuki was next to talk,
"Alright Naruto, excellent transformation, please perform the Substitution."
Reverting back to his original form, Naruto moved to the next Jutsu that is required to pass, which was the clone Jutsu, seeing as he is biologically Uzumaki, he has higher than normal chakra, which is a bit hard to control especially with this a low caliber Jutsu like this, he did not limit the chakra but released it, the room would explode making the two instructors cough and fan away the excess smoke that lingered, the room was now filled with over 40 blonds standing on the walls and ceilings of the room. Mizuki clapped his hands as he leaned backed, while Iruka nodded with a smile as he stretched his hands across the table of headbands. The color of the cloth of the headband varied in color, ranging from red, dark yellow to blue and black, Naruto would reach forward to a dark burgundy color headband and wrapped it around his left bicep. Two bright blue eyes would raise from the brand-new headband signifying his adulthood and his passage to the Shinobi world and looked to the smiling face of the two proud Instructors.
"Congratulations Naruto, you're officially a Genin of Konoha, please return to the classroom." Iruka beamed as he looked at his graduated student, while he was somewhat disappointed in Naruto's recent behavior, he could not help but feel proud that his first group of students were now graduating into the shinobi world. As Naruto walked into the class, the previous tension they had about him was now gone, long forgotten as the children were excited about being shinobi or were depressed that they failed and contemplating about dropping out the program. After the last batch of students, Iruka and Mizuki came back to the class, Iruka stepped forward, he brought a close fist to his mouth and cleared his throat, grasping the class's attention.
"I'd like to say, it has been an honor teaching the new generation of the leaf, it has been an honor to get to know each and every beautiful souls in this class room, your flames burn brightly, however this world isn't all about glory or honor, it is a cold dangerous world, some of you may die, and in order to survive, you need to cheat, lie and kill, just to survive…"
Iruka would pause for a second, letting the words settle into the hearts and mind of his young student,
"But never forget, you are still humans, you are still children of the Leaf, may you overcome these challenges with your strength and comrades beside you!"
and with that the whole class cheered.

As the children filed out of the academy, rushing to the arms of their ecstatic parents, Naruto who would be sitting under the swing he spent his childhood on, would see Menma with his broken nose and Mito showing their parents their new headbands, Minato had a frown as he saw Menma's broken nose, he would ask Menma how did it happen, Naruto couldn't hear what they were saying but he did see Menma pointed toward his direction, raising a blond eyebrow, Naruto would watch his dad's blue eyes faced his directions, a slight frown on his face before sighing, he patted his head before ushering his kids to the direction of Ichiraku, Kushina waved towards Naruto in order for him to get off the swing and follow his parents before turning around to follow her husband, trusting Naruto to catch up,
As his two feet touched the dirt, Mizuki arrived towards the young youth and placed his hands on Naruto's shoulders. Naruto would look upwards to his Instructor with an inquisitive look.
"Is there something you need Mizuki sensei?" He'd ask as Mizuki removed his hands from the first born of the Kage's three children, Mizuki would then place his hands on his hips as he opened his lips to speak.
"Actually, yes there is Naruto, seeing as you passed your exam, I was so impressed that I've written you a recommendation to be promoted to Chunin, however there is a secondary test you need to do, inside your father's office is a large scroll-"
"The scroll of forbidden Jutsu's, right?" Naruto cut off, remembering that he has seen the scroll once he visited his father's office, Mizuki nodded his head,
"Correct, the objective is to take the scroll and meet me with a few other Instructors by the Uzumaki shrine at the outskirt of the village, undetected and untraced, it is to test your reconnaissance skills, something every Chunin will need."
Naruto had never heard of this test; however, the life of the Shinobi is one clouded of secrecy, and seeing as Mizuki was someone he trusts, he nodded his head, believing his words. Besides, there are some few other Instructors that would be present, making it seems that it was official, and it would be returned to his father. Naruto's head tilted downwards before lifting, a large grin of determination on his face, as he punched his palm.
"You got it sensei! I'll be there with the scroll faster than you can say Chunin!" Naruto exclaimed, making Mizuki grin a jolly grin, "Children are way too trusting, come on kid, you're the son of the Kage, I'll give you your final lesson, never trust anybody in this world, not even your own right hand…"
9:58 P.M Konoha Outskirts.Seeing as his family was still out celebrating for their graduation, to them it seems that Naruto went home early to rest, but unknown to them, Naruto was already at the outskirts waiting for not only Mizuki, but the other Academy instructors as well. He took the liberty to open the scroll and his face blanched at all the suicidal techniques that is written in this scroll. The only Jutsu that does not require the life of the practitioner would be the Shadow clone Jutsu, a Jutsu he recalled teaching his siblings this same technique…would it be considered child abuse seeing as it is a FORBIDDEN Jutsu in the first place? Either way he already knew the fundamentals of the Jutsu and in a way have the idea of how to perform it, either way as a Genin and a person who wants to live to see tomorrow, the scroll was relatively…useless.
Naruto sat down staring upwards in the night sky looking upwards wondering where Mizuki-sensei would be. Now, regarding to the location of the soon to be traitor, he would be the one alerting all the shinobi that Naruto stole the Forbidden scroll, the news itself reached the ears of Minato himself. Upon hearing it Minato was shocked, he thought Naruto was at home, why does he have the scroll?
"I want a search party extended to every corner and alleyway of the village, find Naruto!" Minato ordered, "Kakashi, summon Pakkun and see if he could catch Naruto's scent."
A figure slinked out of the shadows showing a tall grey hair man with a mask that covered about 90 percent of his face, the man identified as Kakashi nodded lazily as he bit his finger through his mask. Once blood was drawn, he would slam it downward summoning a small brown dog with a blue vest.
"Yo!" Pakkun greeted, Kakashi would bend downwards,
"Pakkun, you remember Naruto's scent, right?" Kakashi asked, once Pakkun nodded Kakashi spoke, "Then you know what you need to do."
Without a moment notice, Pakkun bolted out of the door, with Kakashi in pursuit. Menma doesn't seem to care about all this commotion, still angered at his elder brother for busting up his nose, while he did deserve it, the way Naruto's persona changed during that spar frightened him, something he would never admit outright, but that was the outcome…
Mito on the other hand was worried about her brother, first going overboard with the spar earlier and now stealing the forbidden scroll, just what is going on with him? Kushina seemed proud, proud that her 12-year-old child was able to steal a high-ranking document out of the most protected room in all of the leaf village, and possibly the entire shinobi world. Minato, he was more annoyed than anything, especially with Kushina's triumphant smirk on her face. Just why would Naruto steal the scroll? Or why is Kushina looking like a proud soccer mom who's kid just won a championship?
Mizuki and a few other Shinobi were grinning triumphantly, this was going way better than expected, the other Chunins accompanying him is a woman with long, curly, black hair and wears oval glasses along with makeup, wearing red lipstick. Her outfit consists of a simple pink kimono with mesh armour underneath and a pair of baggy red pants with flip-flop-like sandals worn with socks who went by the name of Suzume. Another shinobi that accompanied Mizuki is a large man with brown hair and a goatee. He wears the standard uniform of the Konoha shinobi inclusive flak jacket and a forehead protector that he wears like a bandanna. His name is Daikoku Funeno.
"Mizuki you're a bloody genius!" Daikoku praised,
"This is way easier than I thought, Lord Orochimaru would be pleased, and we'll get his blessed seal as a reward, I can't wait!" Suzume exclaimed as her glasses glinted in the moon light as the trio dashed towards the rendezvous spot.
"Heh, I told you guys, this plan is fool proof besides I'll finally kill one of the snot nose brats of that blond bastard, shame it wasn't one of those Kyubi brats!" Mizuki spat out as they moved with the wind.
Back to Naruto's location, the first Shinobi to arrive was Iruka, seeing the child star gazing with the evidence laying right beside him, a blood vessel nearly popped in Iruka's temple. He started to march towards the laying form of Naruto with an angered look on his face, hearing footsteps Naruto sat up with a confused look but seeing as it was Iruka his face lit up quicker than fire on gas.
"Hey Iruka, you're one of the instructors that will pass me?" Naruto asked, almost giddily, "You and Mizuki sensei is a bit late no?"
This made Iruka stop in his tracks with a confused look on his face, pass him? He already passed his Genin test, and he turned around and betrayed the village not even one full day of graduating, but wait…Mizuki? What did he have to do with this? Iruka's eyes widened as he heard the distinct sound of a sharp projectile slicing through the air. He would move to tackle Naruto, pushing him out of the way as a mixture of Shuriken's Kunai's and senbons, Both Naruto and Iruka looked shocked as three familiar figures landing on the branch in front of them. The silence was heavy, as if gravity itself was forcing the boy down on his feet, it was Iruka's who broke the silence in a tone of complete and utter shock.
"M-Mizuki? Suzume…and Daikoku. What in the hell are you bastards doing?" From shock turned to outrage, just what do these guys think they are doing? They were his friends from the academy, and they all became instructors, why? Just why are they doing this?
"Mizuki sensei…I got the scroll like you said, I passed…right?" Naruto asked, with drew out the laughter of the Chunin trio, Mizuki wiped a tear from his eye as a malicious grin tore through his regularly handsome face.
"Poor Naruto, don't you remember Iruka's words? In this life you have to lie, cheat…and kill to get what we want." Mizuki said as he clapped his hands, "My final lesson to you kiddo, never trust anybody, remember my words in the next life…"
The three moved like a blur Daikoku threw a knee towards the nose of the infuriated Iruka as Suzume thrusted a kunai in his stomach, Daikoku threw a punch towards Iruka's jaws as he moved to clench his stab wounds before Suzume kicked the hilt of the blade moving further inside the Chunin, making him rasp out in pain as blood leak through his fingers, hearing their laughter as they tormented the poor instructors Naruto couldn't help but tremble.
Why did it turn out this way?
Mizuki appeared in front of the betrayed child, who's face is now in a mixture of anger, shock and sadness, the little humanity in Mizuki felt hesitant, almost pitying Naruto, should he show him mercy? here was a child he literally watched grew up…
Oh the fuck well,
"Sorry kid, you were born in the wrong age…" Mizuki stated unapologetic despite his words, before equipping his kunai with a swift smooth motion and penetrated the black blade into the chest of the young child. Tears fell from Naruto's eyes as he felt pressure and pain as blood leaked from his mouth, making the boy leaned backwards, his betrayed eyes stared at Mizuki before drifting off the starry night sky.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Is this the end? I just became a Genin and I'm dying in less than five hours?
"Is this what I am now? Pathetic…"An unfamiliar voice rang out; Naruto's eyes would open as he noticed that he is no longer in the dark forest of the leaf. But in a ruined throne room, bones littered the floor, a large dining hall broken in multiple segments and sitting on a broken throne was another child sitting on the throne, wait a darn minute, THAT'S NARUTO! The Naruto in front of him wore a golden plated armor with black fur draped over his should, the sides of his hair was cut and the top braided backwards, one of his eyes no longer held the sky blue pupil but now something bright, something incredibly hard to look at, as if it was staring at the sun…is that a literal star in his eye socket? Runes tattooed on the skin of the doppelganger ran down vertically over his regular blue eye, (Imagine Ubbe's tattoo from Vikings.) and in his hand was a large golden spear that just radiated power, that towered over both of them, standing at a strong eight foot tall.
"Y-your…me?" Naruto rasped out, completely thrown off at the appearance of his doppelganger, he has never seen anyone dressed like this. The Twin nodded his head.
"I am you, yet I am not, we are the same, but we are greater…I have been reborn, and you are my reincarnation," The barbaric version of Naruto stated, he would inspect Naruto closely making Naruto face away due to the sheer intensity of the heat and brightness of the star in the eye. "You are too weak to wield Gungir, but not for Mjolnir…"
"Mjolnir?" Naruto repeated, completely lost on what this clone is saying, the Viking version of Naruto nodded his head,
"The weapon of my Son…Thor, it was shattered upon the battle with the world's serpent, however I can still feel its energy…The dwarves must have reforged it…"
"Oi, just what are babbling about…where are we?" Naruto asked, getting fed up with his clone's rambling, first he was in the forest, now here? Is he dead? And this guy looks the same age as him! How does he have a son!?
"Even in death, it seems that my wisdom is infinite, I see…the metal of Mjolnir was reforged into a Skegg(Bearded Axe.) Boy we shall not die here, raise your hand and the Skegg made from Mjolnir would be in your grasp." The clone spoke as he walked away from Naruto, his hand held on his chin as he walked away as he instructed Naruto what to do.
Now Naruto is more confused, what the hell is a Skegg, what is a Mjolnir, what is he talking about, "OI! WHO THE HELL ARE YOU WHY DO YOU LOOK LIKE ME, WHY IS YOUR LEFT EYE SO BRIGHT!?" Naruto roared out, getting more frustrated and annoyed, he blinked and had to immediately look away before he risked going blind, this clone of him was now in his face, his voice overlapping as he opened his mouth speak, is this possible, he could hear him inside his head and with him in front of him, Naruto grasped his ears as he felt as if it would bleed.
"I hold many names, many called me Aldaföðr(Father of Men) Alföðr (Father of all) Báleygr (Blazing eye) and so on, my name is numerous as the stars, they call me Wotan, but you, me, we,"
As he stated we, thunder cracked and lighting flashed as dark clouds hovered over head. In the real world, this started to happen as well
"Are"
The dark clouds burst open as heavy rainfall poured downwards battering Naruto, Iruka's unconscious form and on the three traitorous Chunins, much to their chagrin, and to the annoyance of the tracker hound, the scent of the sudden rain is making his job much more difficult in tracking Naruto down. Back inside this unknown place, it seems that both Naruto and this ancient being is now talking in sync as Naruto's right hand shot upwards startling the traitorous trio as an object in a flash of lightning fell from the heavens and into the hands of the young reincarnate, grasping the hilt tightly as the force pushed back Mizuki Suzume and Daikoku on their asses.
"ODDIINN!"
And with that lightning fell down like rain over Konoha.

And that's chapter 3, I decided to go with the route with more chunins assisting Mizuki in taking the forbidden scroll for Orochimaru, I hope yall like that little twist, further more, what I noticed in other fics is that Naruto's reincarnated spirit spoke as if they were separate entities, but in this case, I made sure to implement the fact that Odin and Naruto is one, hence the "We are Odin" bit.
Furthermore, this is not really a neglect fic, the family is just alive and well, they'll be apart of the story however for now I don't believe I want any of them to have an antagonist role. Maybe it will change down the line. Oh yeah, I've changed Mjolnir from a Hammer to a bearded axe, I like the design of the axe, and tbh I feel like it would fit Naruto. Later on he would be able to wield Gungir though!
Furthermore, should there be more reincarnate of the other Gods if so who and who? Or should Naruto just be the sole incarnate of the ancient War God? Let me know what you think.
Lastly, the life of Iruka sensei is in you, the reader's hands should he live, or should he die? Cast your votes in the review!
I hoped you guys enjoyed this chapter,
your papa,
