Akudou ch 3

After that day Kurama trained Naruto, along with the foxes who have been named Ichigo, Niko, and Sango. Ichigo being the mother, Niko is the male cub who has a lighter fur color, and Sango is the female cub who has an almost black tail. Naruto was finally able to make himself invisible to the eye, so he was trained to be able to hide his chakra. Kurama shows him how to make his chakra look like wind, earth, and water inside his mindscape and has trained to do it in his body. After managing that he was trained to move chakra outside of his body by channeling his chakra to the golden ball, this also to sustain the barrier and the creation. While at it Kurama also retrieve the weapon's that the shinobi had used, those that stuck to the person has disintegrate along with the body, but the kunai and a single short sword belonged to the one Naruto killed was there, so she retrieve that and keep it in the nest.

Naruto learned from his mother that a fox needs to be elusive, mischievous, and smart. After he was able to hide his body and chakra, she taught him how to make a clone with his chakra. Making the body was easy, but putting his will into the clone was hard, he had to focus hard to be able to do that, but when he focused he couldn't move his body, but Kurama finds it acceptable for now.

They're back to training his hiding skill. Though he is able to make himself invisible, there is a weakness to it, that weakness is that he can't see while he is invisible. There is a way to counter it, one is to make his eyes visible, which can be useful depending on the place. Second way is to sense his surroundings. To do this, he has to be a sensor, or he has to be able to connect to nature. For this Kurama teaches him how to connect with nature instead, or rather, the things that he has been learning are for this purpose. To be able to connect with nature, he has to be close to it. Kurama told him that there are many ways to be close to nature, one of which is to make his chakra move around and change like his surroundings, letting his chakra flow to his surroundings and blend with it. This is called the sage technique, and there are many types of sage techniques. This technique that she teaches Naruto are her own, it use is to make one invisible to anyone but those who the user permit to see, to enhance her creation illusion, to enhance one's sense and enable one to use clairvoyance, and even enable someone to fly if he is really good in his nature control. Her technique doesn't increase someone's strength or regenerative ability like some other sage technique as her technique is made to hide and deceive instead of fighting.

And so time goes by as Kurama teaches Naruto one thing after the other. Among these are the creation, mastering the clone, instead of only being able to control one clone Naruto now could control two clone simultaneously along with his body, training him to handle people's emotions and at the end martial arts and weapon arts, mainly do defend oneself as Kurama doesn't want Naruto to grow arrogant.

Some shinobi did come after the attack, probably to check on the missing team, this time Naruto just hid, all evidence has been erased by Kurama so there's no problem. They did come back several times but they couldn't find anything, the barrier helped hide Naruto from their sensor ninja.

Other than that they also made the nest wider, planted berries and trees there, caught small animals, released them inside and made a small lake and filled it with fish to sustain themselves. Inside his mindscape Naruto has made the place into many rice fields, there are roads spreading at each side forming a cross with the mounds where the tree is at the center.

Now Naruto is six years old and has grown taller, he is going to the village right now, to see what has changed since he's gone and while at it he's planning on buying new clothes as his old one has barely fit him anymore. Though he doesn't have money, he planned to sell the kunais collected from the attacking shinobi. Hopefully it will be enough to buy at least a pair of clothes. He walked in the village in his human form, not hiding or disguising, to know what the villagers and the shinobi's reaction would be and what they would do. Naruto could feel a few people recognize him, hate and fear started to build up. There is also surprise as they might think he had died somewhere or had run away and never come back. Some of the surprises come from a shinobi who quickly disappears to report him probably. He tried to enter some of the weapon shops but all of them threw him out. Not only that, most of the villagers have recognized him by now and he could feel their hate, so it seems impossible for him to do his business. He looked at the Hokage mountain, the fourth hokage, his father, Kurama has told about his human parents, it's a difficult thing for him, on one hand they are the one who sealed and tortured his mother, who make her suffer, but on the other hand, his mother killed them, and make him an orphan when he could have a normal human family. But in the end he could only accept it as it is and be grateful because he has his mother, he could have never met his mother, or she could still be tortured inside his human mother otherwise, and he definitely doesn't want to imagine that happening.

Naruto looks down at the village from the Hokage mountain, the village that his father protected to the death. Hearing from his mother that the first Hokage is the one who imprisoned her and her siblings, then gave them to the hand of other villages just to be used as a tool of war for the humans. He has no good feeling for these villages that call themselves the hidden village. Though he wondered if they're right in the head calling this place a hidden village with how eye catching this place is.

"beautiful isn't it?"

Someone said from behind him, Naruto already noticed him but waited for him to talk first. When he looked at the person, there was an old man wearing a white robe with a smoking pipe in his mouth, the 3rd Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi standing there.

"3rd Hokage?"(Naruto)

"Oh you recognize me?"(Hiruzen)

Naruto just pointed at the 3rd face carving.

"With that there who wouldn't know?"(Naruto)

"Hahaha, I guess that's true. So what's your name?"(Hiruzen)

Naruto knew that Hiruzen knew about him, he probably wants to know what happened to him after he disappeared but Naruto has no intention to reveal anything significant, especially after those shinobi attacks.

"Uzumaki Naruto"(Naruto)

"So Naruto, what do you think of the village?"(Hiruzen)

"Nothing? The villagers are stupid, they hate me just because I'm different"(Naruto)

Naruto said with a sad tone, half an act and half truth. It's true that he feels sad, but that's not because of how they treated him but with how blind they are. His mother told him that those who know little are bound to make mistakes, just like these villagers. They praise his father as a hero but they shun him just because he is different, not knowing that he is the son of their hero. Naruto doesn't want to be like them, stupidity and arrogance only bring ruin, his mother always reminds him of that so that he doesn't make the same mistakes.

"How are you different? I see you just like the other kids in the village"(Hiruzen)

Hiruzen said, acting as the kind old man. Naruto plays along.

"You don't know? They said I'm a demon child, apparently I'm the son of the kyuubi who attacked the village long time ago"(Naruto)

Naruto could feel anger from Hiruzen directed at no one in particular. But it goes away as soon as it comes.

"Do you believe them?"(Hiruzen)

"I am different, that's the truth. But if they think I'm the kyuubi's child they shouldn't have treated me this way"(Naruto)

"Do you hate them?"(Hiruzen)

Hiruzen asked again, continuing his act. Naruto just continues talking about what is in his mind, he doesn't need to act. But he has to be careful not to reveal something unnecessary.

"No, i just pity them, they become blind because of hatred and done some stupid things. And i don't want to be like them so i wouldn't hate them, but i can't say i like them though"(Naruto)

Naruto said while scratching his head embarrassed. He might think it is embarrassing to not be able to forgive them, but it actually an amazing thing to let go of his hatred for the people who tried to kill him, especially for a small child such as Naruto. Hiruzen, probably reaching that conclusion, smiled at Naruto.

"I'm glad to hear that, people tend to be swallowed by their emotions, hatred and fear often blind people making them irrational. You're a smart kid Naruto"(Hiruzen)

Naruto just smiles slightly and looks back at the village.

"So, what are you doing here? Just looking at the village?"(Hiruzen)

Hiruzen asked after a moment.

"Well, i just got thrown from every shop when I try to sell some kunais to buy some clothes, as you can see my old one is barely fit anymore"(Naruto)

"Kunais?"(Hiruzen)

"Hmm? Yeah, i got them from the forest"(Naruto)

"Don't you have someone that takes care of you?"(Hiruzen)

Naruto shakes his head. As he answered with a sad tone.

"No, I've been living in the forest for a long time now. I have no one"(Naruto)

Hiruzen seemed to think for a bit before he asked Naruto.

"Then do you want to join the ninja academy and become a shinobi? That way, I can give you some allowance and a place to stay. Plus if you buy stuff from a ninja shop they shouldn't be discriminating against you like the civilian store."(Hiruzen)

Naruto was waiting for this, his mother has told him that he needs to have backups to be able to live safely, he can't be alone forever. Becoming a shinobi from a big village should provide him with protection and information. He could find some friends who don't discriminate against him and would help him when he's in trouble too.

"Really!? Thanks old man!"(Naruto)

Naruto answered delightfully. He didn't think it would be that easy, but it is understandable, they don't want to lose him again so they need to place him where they could observe him.

After that he and Hiruzen move to where he will be staying from now on. An old apartment at the side of the village, only after the Hyuuga compound from the village wall and forest. He was given a room on the second floor and he could go to the roof and use it as he pleased.

After that they went to a clothing shop and bought some clothes for Naruto. A few sets of shirts and pants, a baggy orange jacket and a black leather jacket. Kurama told Naruto secretly to buy a larger size so that he could use it for a long time, and Naruto agreed as he likes more breathable clothes rather than a fitting one. Of course he can't just use bigger pants so he buys a fitting one and uses a belt to fit it.

Hiruzen then left after handing Naruto his allowance. He told Naruto that he will be entering the academy when he is 8 years old. If it were a warring time , he could enter the academy right now or even younger, but in this peaceful time they want a more mature and stronger body to train into a shinobi.

Naruto decides to walk around after putting away his new clothes. He walks around at the edge of the village as he doesn't like the villagers, remembering his way and finding interesting spots around.
