"Well... we finally got directions to the church."
"Yes... we did." Asia responded to him with slightly red cheeks. She had woken up in quite the embarassing position, sleeping cuddled up to him while she drooled all over his chest and arm, hugging him for warmth in the chilled night. Despite it being a little cool at night, she had a great night's sleep. "... Last night was... an experience. I didn't know you could cook." Asia had never had wild boar before, but it had been delicious.
Naruto scratched the back of his head.
He felt different, very different than he did when he went to bed. For starters, he woke up feeling like he had forgotten something amazing and important to him. He was less angry on the inside for some reason as well. The anger inside of him was still there, but it was pushed down deeper than it was before so that he didn't have many of his usual stray thoughts of the angry variety.
"It was just meat, a man needs to be able to cook meat. Did I do anything to you last night when I was asleep, or say anything in my sleep?" Naruto asked Asia with a glance towards her. With them on the right track towards the church, it would be an hour or two of walking before they got there. Sure they could take a bus no problem, but neither of them really wanted to do that.
He felt like last night was super important to him.
"... No, you didn't say anything..." Asia couldn't admit to what she had heard him cry last night. His face had gone through a lot of emotions, but what woke her up were the soft cries he made in his sleep. She had cuddled him to try and comfort him, but his emotions in his sleep had been all over the place. He spoke soft and gentle words in his sleep, but very few of them were in any language she understood.
She did understand the English word for Father though.
He dreamed of his father apparently.
"Ah, good... good." Naruto was glad that he didn't say anything, since he didn't remember his dream. Only the emotions he felt when he woke up from the dream.
There was an uncomfortable silence this time.
"So... you live in a tent, why don't... do you have a family?" Asia felt bad asking this question at all, since she understood what it was like to not have family. Naruto lived on his own in a tent in the park, so it was hard to make any guess about his family that didn't come to the conclusion that he was an orphan like her. "I'm sorry if that's too personal, forget I asked-"
"-They died when I was born, the entire Uzumaki family as a whole was slaughtered. I've never had a family for as long as I can remember... but it's not so bad honestly. I mean, I'm happy and healthy... so I'm sure my parents would be happy with that." Naruto grumbled low enough for her to hear, but the discomfort in his voice meant that he didn't like what he was talking about. He was just talking about it because she was the one who asked him.
Asia nodded quickly.
Too quickly.
"Yes, I understand, when I was a baby I was left with the Church... I became a Saint really young when I activated my Sacred Gear! I understand what it's like to be surrounded by those who adore you, but no have the love of a family." Asia couldn't see Naruto as anything but a great guy. It would make sense for people to love and adore him, the crowd of people paying for his food at the mall was proof of that.
Naruto didn't say anything to correct her.
There was no need to make her feel bad over getting that wrong, or guilting her into feeling pity for him over something so small. In all honestly, while he was infamous among regular people, among horrible people he was quite adored for his power.
"Na-Naruto!"
"Hm? Issei?" Naruto asked when he heard a familiar voice scream out for him. He saw Issei, running and sweating towards him in his school uniform. He looked flustered and freaked out by something, and standing next to Issei was the white haired girl from his class, Koneko Toujou.
She wasn't sweating, and while her face was slightly passive, she seemed a little worked up too.
"Uzumaki, trouble."
"Eh?" Naruto and Asia, in unison, asked as the sad mood they were in was ruined. Issei looked at Asia for a moment, glanced down at her clothes, focused on her boobs, before he slapped his cheeks and looked back to Naruto.
-At the School-
"So, who is the man who currently has a gun to my head?" Rias asked as she stood at the front of the school, with a man standing behind her holding a rather large gun right to the back of her head. Kind of embarassing that a person had got the drop on her, but sadly even a Devil like her couldn't survive having their head blown off by a weapon. While there were Devils with high durability to survive getting shot, she was not one of the ones who could take it to the head.
The man was quite tall.
A black suit, very professional looking, with peach skin and long spiky blond hair.
"I hold nothing against you personally, my Boss had his son beaten and robbed by a student of the school, so I'm just following orders. I won't shoot anyone, so long as nobody makes a move." The man's voice was quite kind and sorry for his own actions. He had his other gun trained on another club president, there were many men in suits who who had each of the club presidents of the school on their knees.
Many were in tears and quietly pleading for themselves not to be shot in the head.
"Ah, so revenge against Naruto." Rias calmly analyzed, since she remembered Naruto taking down some thugs at the school. They lost their money to Naruto as punishment for attempting to pick a fight with him. All the school club's had been forced to send their club members out across the city to try and find Naruto, and while no doubt some would use this as a chance to escape, she knew that her own Peerage would find Naruto.
That, or Sona's peerage would find Naruto.
She was just standing silently as she had as a knife touching her neck, arms crossed much like herself as she analyzed the situation.
'Good, with this I can more accurately judge Naruto.' Sona could use this situation to her advantage.
Rias could practically hear her thoughts without needing to.
"Honestly, the boy is being really stubborn, he was just like his mother that way."
"Oh?" Rias was interested as she looked at the man behind her without moving too much, and she saw a melancholic look to his eyes. This man with kind eyes, he was quite a person of interest if he knew who Naruto's mother was. "Do tell more about her, Naruto's quite the talk of the school right now."
"She had hair like blood, and eyes that could stare right into your soul. If I had to label her, I would saw that she was passion incarnate. She never went anywhere without her personal guard, a young person in a black suit... either a very beautiful man, or quite the handsome woman." The man fondly remembered Kushina.
Rias touched her own hair, she didn't know that she shared the same hair color as Naruto's mother. That was quite interesting, she never asked too much about the Uzumaki, or rather their red hair was never the focus of the conversation. If she had heard that Uzumaki were redheads, her brain might have just forgotten due to the information not being important.
"Nobody at this school is going to get hurt, correct?"
"So long as Naruto shows up, nobody but him will get hurt." The man was happy to confirm for her. Confirmation meant willing obedience, and willing obedience meant that he would not need to take her life right now. "We're professionals, the boss just wants Naruto's head for humiliating his son."
Rias felt like this situation was quite exciting, all things considered, since this was the genuine Yakuza that she was dealing with right now. That was as Japanese as it got, dealing with such a high level group of thugs and thieves. These were the lowest of the Japanese low, the honorable among thieves.
"So, how did you know his mother?" Rias asked politely.
Just to pass the time at this point.
"I was eating at a ramen stall, when I saw a beautiful woman enter with her guard and sit down. I was instantly attracted to her hair... but I was young and stupid, so I challenged her guard to a fight to take her. I was new in the business, and didn't know how to judge a person's aura very well-"
"Hey, Yakuza bitches!"
"It would seem my club was able to come back successful." Rias saw Koneko and Issei with Naruto, and some nun(?) running through the school gates. "A nun? Why is Naruto with a nun?" Rias asked, since that made no sense to her at all. The girl seemed quite worried about something, and now that she looked at her, Rias felt something was off about her as well. She made eye contact with Koneko, who nodded her head in confirmation.
The nun had a Sacred Gear, good to know.
"Oh wow... he's got his mother's face, but it's mixed together with... his mother's guard's features... where do those eyes come from though? Oh... he is pissed." The man judged the size and strength of Naruto's fighting spirit, and it was in no way something to be underestimated. He let go of Rias, and he looked at his men, some of who were shrinking back slightly under the dominating aura of the teen walking towards them.
Naruto was visibly pissed off.
"Uzumaki Naruto, I applaud your courage and honor for coming to school to face us. All the students are unharmed, and we will not harm a single student if you comply."
"Give me your name." Naruto made a calm demand, contrary to his appearance his voice was very even.
One of his men jumped the gun.
*BANG*
"RAH!" He gave a battle cry as he shot a round into Naruto's arm, before he drew his sword and started to run towards Naruto. He was the first affected by Naruto's aura, and attacked in a panic when he realized the danger that allowing Naruto time to think was to them.
"Oh shit!?" Issei saw Naruto take a bullet to the arm, but Naruto just punched the guy in the face the moment that he got within striking range. "UH!?" Issei felt a pang of emotion in his left hand. He groaned and looked at Naruto, feeling something ominous about him for a moment.
~Well, well, well... this is quite the interesting friend you've made partner, it seems that bastard Merlin managed something quite unique after all. To think the dickwizard who stole from me and the white one, produced something.~
"Huh?" Issei was confused. "Dickwizard?" Issei didn't know where that voice came from, but he was pretty sure that he had never heard of a wizard who dealt with dicks before.
Naruto was nearly done already.
Only the calmest of the men, who was standing behind Rias, was left of the Yakuza. Naruto stomped on a man's thigh, and shattered it with the heel of his foot with no mercy. He shouted in pain before quickly blacking out due to the sheer agony of his femur being broken.
"Give me your name."
"Minato Namikaze, disciple of the Great Sage of the Toad Mountain. I'm 38 years old, single, and while I'm with the Yakuza I do my best to live a peaceful life and hurt as few as I can. My hobbies are cooking, cleaning, and studying martial arts under my Master. I hold no personal grudge against you, but due to orders I need to eliminate you." Minato stepped forward and rolled his sleeves up. His eyes turned yellow and he gained bar pupils, with red rings around his eyes as he looked towards Naruto.
As soon as his eyes changed, he put sunglasses over his eyes so that nobody could see the change.
Koneko froze.
-Inside of Minato's Mind's Eye-
"This... is quite the overwhelming aura... this boy has everything his mother had and more." Minato thought as he looked at Naruto's aura.
He stared at something massive and overwhelming.
"... and what do we have here, an intruder in Mommy's private space."
"To think that my allied partner is fighting such a rude opponent, what curse would you like inflicted upon you?"
"You think to invade the personal space of MY partner, the next ruler of Japan! The ARROGANCE!"
"RAH!"
"Leave this place, my Master is not something a simple person like you should view."
"You view my Master like this, your death will be a cruel one."
"Please leave."
"Leave."
-Outside of Minato's Mind's Eye-
"... I see, so... this situation is similar." Minato dropped using Senjutsu, and he pulled his phone out. This was the same situation as when he looked at the aura of Kushina when he proposed his love to her, and she rejected him in favor of staying with her harem instead. He didn't wish to join a harem, so he stayed single and just kept his love for her to himself after that.
The phone was answered.
"Yes Boss, no the elimination can't proceed... yes... yes... no, the boy is too dangerous. This is a Code: UK... I know that code hasn't been used in over 15 years, but this is the exact same situation as with her. It would seem your son lied about how he was humiliated then... yes, I will accept punishment for failing your orders. I understand, thank you for understanding as well." Minato hung up his phone with a nod of his head. Everything was sorted out, and after seeing Naruto's aura with Senjutsu, he understood the situation far more than he would ever need to explain to his boss.
Could he defeat Naruto?
Yes, of course, but he didn't want to. To defeat a true inheritor before he bloomed into his full power, to take down a prince before he could become king, it was shameful. Not to mention, he wanted to see how far this boy would go. The quality of the ones who served him was quite amazing, quite like Kushina's personal guard and harem, and in some ways surpassing the guard that she had.
"You think I will let you leave?" Naruto asked when Minato walked right passed him.
"We can fight later, but for now I wish to see how strong you become." Minato just smiled at Naruto as he put his sunglasses in his pocket. He could hardly wait for the day that Naruto came into his own as a man.
It would be a great battle for sure.
