Naruto: The Next Path (Reboot)
Prologue
Universe 7
Years ago, when another half breed Saiyan named Oturan was a young kid, formally forced to work for Dr. Gero to end Goku's life. As the three remaining androids are awakened, the young Saiyan is free, but not for long. Oturan was threatened by the androids to prevent her from helping the Z-Fighters. Later, as Perfect Cell reforms himself by absorbing Android 17 and 18, Oturan has the chance to help the Z-Fighters become strong, causing her to power up to Super Saiyan briefly. While Vegeta and future Trunks trained together and Goku trained with Gohan at the Time Chamber, Oturan sparred with Piccolo. Days later, Oturan, and the Z-Fighters with Android 16 are chipped up to challenge Perfect Cell. With many struggles, Goku sacrificed himself the second time. Oturan didn't want Goku to die either, but it was too late. She then discovers that she can become Super Saiyan longer than last time.
Gohan later defeated Perfect Cell with the help of his deceased father with a Father-Son Kamehameha. As Gohan defeated Cell, Oturan flew away, and turned herself in for helping Dr. Gero with his assassinate plan.
#1: Transport To Another World
Present Time, East District 439
It begins in Universe 7. With Kid Buu defeated, the entire world is at peace, at least expecting more. Other than Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, well, you named the rest of the Saiyans… another young half breed Saiyan around 12 or 13 years old move in another place across the lake near the residence of Goku's property.
The cheerful Saiyan in orange was peppy to help the young Saiyan in yellow shirt and black shorts move her belongings to her own house. "Wow, it's pretty great to have you as our neighbor, Oturan, you should hang out with Gohan and Goten sometime!" "Geez, thanks, Goku, you should train with me someday," the young Saiyan chirped. Goku grinned, "If only you're Gohan's age, you would have been a perfect match with him!" "I guess he's kinda my type, but he already has Videl…" Oturan admitted, blushing in a lighter shade of red. "Anyways, thanks for bringing all my stuff in my new house." "You're welcome!" Goku replied. "Goku, are you done helping with that kid?" Goku's wife Chi-Chi hollering in the distance standing on the edge of the small pier. "It's time for lunch!"
Goku turns at Chi-Chi, and then at Oturan, "Sorry I couldn't help you much, I'll come back and help you unpack later!" "Then that's fine, I can do the rest myself," Oturan decided. "you don't have to come back after lunch." Goku waved at Oturan, "See you later!" The orange Saiyan hovered in the air back home across the lake. "It's so hard not to see him kinda sad all these years, he was once pretty serious back then," Oturan thoughted. Goku and Chi-Chi head back inside but Goku turns at Oturan, "Hey, Oturan, do you want to join us for lunch?" "Are you sure, Goku?" his wife asked. "She hasn't eaten anything this morning," Goku fretted. "Alright, she can join, and maybe help her later," Chi-Chi approved.
Oturan quickly appeared on the pier after hovering across the lake. "That's great, the more the merrier!" Oturan beamed. Chi-Chi yelped, "Careful, you'll break the pier!" The pier nearly crashed as Goku grabs Chi-Chi and Oturan falls into the water. "Oops…" Oturan exclaimed.
After lunch, Goku and Gohan fixed the pier as Chi-Chi ranted at her husband and oldest son, "I knew you shouldn't have brought that young lady to lunch! I nearly had a heart attack!" "Geez, I'm sorry, Chi-Chi," Goku whined. "You should have told her to be careful, dad," Gohan sighed.
Beerus Castle, Planet Beerus
Inside the enormous tree full of unusual aquariums, a mystical angel, face unseen, sees the entire Earth from his scepter. He sees Goku with his family, but sees another kid from another house across the lake in the hologram from his scepter. "Oh? What's this?" Whis exclaims. "Oh, my, what is that young Saiyan doing on this planet? She's nothing related to Goku or Vegeta's children!" He let out a breath while sighing. "If only Lord Beerus can see this young lady…" As mentioned, Beerus was still asleep. "I'll pay a visit to her place while Lord Beerus is in deep sleep."
Oturan's House
In the evening, the house is completely full and neat. The young Saiyan was staring at the ceiling while sitting on her new couch. "A place for a young girl like myself," Oturan sighed. "It's pretty bizarre living alone." Oturan stares at her window and sees Goku's residence on the other side of the lake. She sees Goku and his family having a good time watching TV. "I'm thinking to myself, I wonder where my real parents are?" She closed her eyes.
As she opened her eyes, a blue figure appeared in front of Oturan. Whis questioned the young Saiyan, "Hello, there, young lady, what brings you here in this world?" Oturan yelped, "Am I seeing things out of my words?" Whis shushed as he examined Oturan, "There's no need to be afraid, young lady, I won't harm you." Oturan's cerulean eyes widened in surprise. "(Who is that wizard?)" she thought. "There's no particular way you'll survive living alone, so here is what I'll assign you," Whis advised. "If you wish to live here in a long time, I'll transport you to another world other than here."
"What does that mean?" Oturan puzzled. "You will learn about how life survives the wilderness full of battlefield," Whis stated. "For instance, their living specialties are stealth, technique, and inner peace in order to avoid death. You may be excellent in physical and speed, therefore you have lacked all three specialties I've mentioned." "Does the other world allow flying? Can I at least bring my clothes?" the young Saiyan asked. "It would be hard to say, and I wouldn't bring all my clothes if I were you," Whis coached. "Their clothes are entirely different from the world you're currently living." "Aw, man, my clothes would rot out in two days," Oturan pouted. "That is the point of survival," Whis added. "Now come with me."
"What if I refused?" Oturan asked. "I'll bring in my lord to come destroy this entire world," Whis teased as his left hand was on Oturan's shoulder. Oturan paused in fear. "Uh, okay, a deal's a deal," she stuttered. "You should grab onto me while I bring you to that world," Whis said. Oturan stood next to the blue angel as he teleported her to another world.
Space
The blue angel hovered in space at a bottomless speed of light. "Oh, where's my manner? I forgot about your name!" the blue angel giggles. "My name is Oturan," Oturan stated. "Hmm, your name reminded me of someone that has the same name as you, but in backward letters," Whis observed. "You even have the same look of that young man." "N-A-R-U-T-O," Oturan spelled. "What young man?" "You'll see him when you get there," Whis said. "When you arrive there, you will identify yourself as Taroko Ryukana. Based on your appearance and your talent, you will be related to the Ryukana clan."
Unknown Forest
The blue angel finally transported Oturan to another world from another universe, safely landed on nearby branches. "Here we are," the blue angel said. "This place looks different from back home," Oturan exclaimed. "If you learn so much in this world, I'll come back and take you home," Whis said. "This will be your stop for now, and we'll meet again in the future." Whis teleport himself back to his dimension as the wind blows.
Oturan stared at Whis until he vanished. She grabs the bark of the tree for her dear life. "Whis didn't say anything about flying in this world," Oturan concerned. "Maybe it's best to save my energy for later." The young Saiyan climbed down the tree with her bare hands. Without realizing she grabbed onto a broken branch, she fell into the ground as she yelps from her fall. As Oturan crash landed on her feet, she didn't feel anything. "Huh? Did I just land on my feet?" she exclaimed.
She starts wandering around the forest to find someone. "Hello? Anyone there? Show yourself!" Oturan spotted a silver haired man with his face covered in a black mask. Most of his clothes were black except his anklet bandage, the armor from his fingerless gloves and the leaf band from his forehead, and his green sleeveless flak jacket. He was reading an adult book. "Hey, mister! I lost my way out in this forest!" the young Saiyan was hollering at none other than Kakashi Hatake. "Oh, my, you surprised me, kid!" the silver haired man exclaimed while hiding his book. He examined Oturan. "Odd, what's a kid like you wandering around the Hidden Leaf Forest alone?"
"I'm sorry I holler at you, my name is O- I'm Taroko Ryukana," Oturan, or known as Taroko, stuttered. "Taroko Ryukana, I never heard of you, and you must be the kid I was assigned to be looking for," Kakashi exclaimed, hiding his book under his green sleeveless flak jacket. "Who are you? And why are you looking for me?" Oturan asked. "My name is Kakashi, Kakashi Hatake," the man greeted. "You reminded me of Naruto and one of my other students, but with black hair." "Ah, Naruto! What exactly does he look like?" the young Saiyan exclaimed. "How do I explain it, hmm," the silver haired man inquired. "His skin is slightly a bit darker than his yellow hair and he had some sort of whiskers on his cheeks. He has a determined personality."
"Anyways, I have a question, Mr. Hatake," Oturan spoked. "How do you survive life?" "I survive life with chakra, which contains physical and spiritual energy," Kakashi explained. "Wow, this reminded me of spirit energy back home," Oturan recalled. "I assume you haven't applied to the academy yet," Kakashi described. "Academy? Aw, man, does this mean I had to go back into study?" Oturan groans. "(Too bad, I just graduated early from high school a few months ago…)" Oturan daydreamed about the time she graduated back in her home universe.
"That's correct," Kakashi replied. "Come with me, I'll give you a tour around the village, and maybe visit one of my students afterward." The young Saiyan follows the silver haired man.
Hidden Leaf Village (also Hidden Village in the Leaves)
The village is very different from East District 439. There were no vehicles and motorcycles out on the road where pedestrians take a stroll or make certain errands. Most of the cylinder and square building resembles a large town. The tan road is sandy and full of dust. Oturan and the older man took a stroll in the main street. "Wow, this place is more rural than my home place!" Oturan exclaimed. "At least expected, it's a peaceful village we live in, as known as the Hidden Village in the Leaf from the Land of the Fire nation," Kakashi described. He then pointed at the Hokage rocks. "Those four carved rocks over there are the Hokage Monuments, which were the past four leaders of this village. There was this time we all regret in the beginning, a boy around your age spray painted the monuments, he was mischievous back then. Time has passed, and he later became one of my students." "So, about the other thing, if there were Hokage, would that person be the mayor of this town?" The young Saiyan asked. "That's right," Kakashi replied. "Before we head to Naruto's place, I'll have to visit the mission assignment hall because I completed a small errand."
Mission Assignment Hall (also Mission Assignment Desk)
The current fifth leader of the village, Tsunade, does her usual paperwork as her assistant Shizune organizing tons of paper. The fifth hokage appeared to look physically younger, but she is in her fifties. Kakashi appeared with the younger kid. "The mission is complete, Lady Tsunade," the silver haired man said. "I found the lost kid named Taroko Ryukana." The fifth hokage stops writing down as she stares at Oturan. "You must be Taroko Ryukana," the fifth hokage spoked. "And you must be the fifth hokage, right?" Oturan inquired. "Yes, I am the current Hokage, at least expecting a woman to lead the entire village," Tsunade replied.
The fifth hokage turn at Kakashi. "Excellent work finding a young kid wandering around the forest, Kakashi, she could be in deep danger." "It was nothing, my Lady," Kakashi considered. "Taroko was wandering around the forest all along." "Say, why's the forest a dangerous place? It's not like there are bandits and thieves on the road everyday," Oturan questioned. "It's dangerous for you because you're just an ordinary kid, you shouldn't be there," Tsunade replied. "I don't think I'm ordinary at all, I can fight alone when someone is close to me! Why, I even flick them in the face!" Oturan proved, in fighting stances. The fifth hokage sees Oturan impersonating Taroko as a naive kid. There is nothing that can stop the young Saiyan from fighting back against a criminal. She is a serious fighter from another world as others can tell by the hair and such gutsy personality. Tsunade starts laughing, "I like your guts, kid! You reminded me of Naruto Uzumaki!" the fifth hokage sighed as she took a breath. "Speaking of which, Kakashi, after the mission you completed, make sure to bring Taroko to Naruto's house. You are dismissed." "Yes, my Lady," Kakashi replied.
