"Oh man, I can't wait for tomorrow morning at all. Why can't they take the test now?" An impatient voice rang out in a gathering of four friends sitting inside a private room of a restaurant.

The impatient young teen was Takato Matsuki, age 16. He was a young man with light skin, light brown hair and light red eyes. He wore a blue hooded shirt over a white t-shirt, with long gray shorts, yellow wristbands on his hands, and green converse sneakers. He also wore yellow goggles over his forehead gifted to him by his father.

He was from a normal family and his parents ran a bakery unlike his friends gathered around him that came from powerful families.

"Takato stop before Rika slaps our head off." His friend Henry commented with a chuckle as he was also feeling high, high on excitement as something grand was happening the next day for all of them.

Henry Wong was half Chinese and Japanese teen with tanned skin, short blue hair and gray eyes. He wore a sleeveless orange vest with a zipper over a black t-shirt, brown pants, black socks, gray and yellow shoes with white soles, and white wrist bands.

He was a generally a passive guy but the night was an exception. He tended to keep out of trouble and fights.

He came from blessed background as his parents were part of the Digimon Research and Development Corporation. His two older brothers were also Tamers for many years and they had taught him.

He had access to more information than any normal child and the next day was just a normal event to him.

It was the rule so he had to go through the test even though the organization already knew that Henry was qualified.

Hearing his words, the young woman called Rika looked in his direction. The cold gaze sent a shiver down his spine and Henry looked away.

Rika Nonaka was a beautiful girl with fair skin, purple eyes, and ginger shoulder-length hair worn up in a ponytail held by a blue hair tie. She wore a white turtle-neck with black shorts and red sneakers.

She was a tomboyish girl with a cold personality. She was always calm and collected, qualities developed by her family. She came from a traditional clan and her parents were the leaders of a Digimon guild specializing in beast types.

"Don't speak if you don't have the spirit to own your words." Rika said calmly as she drank cola while looking towards the other occupant of the room and the leader of their group.

"No need to be so harsh or were those words targeting me." Naruto Uzumaki turned his head away from the window where he had been watching the snow fall while thinking about life.

He was a young man with light skin, blue eyes, blonde spiky hair and gentle aura. He made people feel young around him, like he was old.

He wore an orange jacket with a white shirt and black jeans along with a pair of glasses hanging from his shirt.

He was the leader of the group and he came from a family of powerful individuals. His parents were part of the Digimon Police while his grandfather was the leader of a powerful guild.

But that was not all of it, as he was the reincarnation of Naruto Uzumaki the Seventh Hokage. He had died after his battle with Ishiki, draining all his powers using Baryon mode. It burnt away all his chakra and Kurama's to give him the ultimate boost in power.

Ishiki died and he won but at the cost of his life.

It was supposed to be the end but he woke in this new world, the world of Digital monsters. It was supposed to be a normal world but 100 years in the past, the normal world and the digital world collided.


Digital monsters started appearing in the normal world and people were curious, they were loved. But it wasn't long before the big ones started appearing and soon something monstrous broke a wormhole in the sky, dropping down in New York.

The beast was huge, bigger than the Skyscrapers and with a single roar it erased the whole city of the map.

That was not the end as more appeared and they started fighting, causing more cities to vanish around the planet.

Millions died instantly and by the end, half of the planets population had died.

In these trying times a hero rose to the call and with a team of digimon tamers they fought for the peace of the world.

The Leader of the Ancients Takuya fused with his partner to form the strongest digimon to walk the planet, Aldamon.

With his team of friends with similar power, they destroyed the enemies and brought order. They started a new age and organizations to manage it arose to take care of the order.

Tamers became normal and digimon were not some horrible monsters to them. There was an organization where teens of age 16 could register and go through a test to get a digimon as they couldn't allow unqualified people to have such powerful beings.

There was the digimon police to monitor all digimon related crimes. There were guilds that explored the digital world and participated in the tournaments.

Digimon fights were common and people loved to watch them. In 100 years things had become normal but not everyone forget the terror so there were digimon haters.

It wasn't a perfect world as crime still existed and now digimon's were involved.

Naruto and his friends were of age, and they decided to join together.


Rika rolled her eyes at his smile, always melting her heart with that expression. They were closer than friends but Naruto had yet to take her, it made her feel annoyed especially since he treated her like a child.

"I meant in general, if you think it applies to you then you might as well keep your words." Rika said as she looked at him challengingly while Takato and Henry felt like slipping away.

Rika could get very violent when her anger reached a melting point and it wasn't so rare these days. They had heard her curse Naruto a lot, calling him a faggot or eunuch or micro-penis.

Those were words none of them expected to come from Rika. She was from a noble like family who might lock her up for such vulgarity.

It wasn't hard to guess what happened. Naruto kept their relationship clean and she wanted to take the next step.

It made her feel weak, jealous. She was afraid that he would choose some older woman and was just playing house with her.

They didn't understand why he was doing it because his parents weren't conservative and his grandfather was a man-whore.

Naruto had nothing to say. He was old, like 50 years old if he combined both ages. He didn't see Rika like that but he didn't want to hurt the child so he allowed it.

He thought it would slip away but Rika seemed to like his old man personality. He was once again stuck in a situation with a little girl after him.

This was never going to end peacefully especially since Rika's family had been eyeing him.

'Trouble seems to always follow me.'

Naruto thought that Rika would be patient and stand strong like always but it seems he had misread certain things. It seems she was aware of his feelings that he didn't see her that way and this led to worries that he might choose someone else.

Naruto could understand the feeling as he had been in that place before, though he didn't feel anything for anyone at the moment.

He was a free spirit and relaxed most of the time. He had yet to think about such relations but Rika matured fast and got interested in love.

He tried to talk her out of it but she was persistent. It wasn't a childish crush anymore since it had developed over the years into a strong desire.

Naruto had known Rika and Henry from a very young age because of their family connections. Rika's parents were very much interested in making him their child's husband since the day they had seen him fight.

Naruto had never hidden his abilities and was the best martial artist anyone had seen. He was well-known figure and people were watching his path with interest.

He wasn't worried about the publicity because it helped his clan rise in power because people saw the young lord as a powerful figure in the future.

It was not just his skills but his intelligence and wisdom was very high for a young person.

Finally there was his body, his muscular structure was excellent and it went beyond anyone in the human world. His body was too strong.

In this world people that came from Tamer families were born with beyond human bodies, meaning all their stats were super and on the level of Captain America or even Spiderman.

These stats got higher after bonding with a digimon and the tamer got access to many different kinds of skills. It was the reason that children of young age weren't allowed to have a contract with a digimon and people had to go through tests.

People had caused mayhem when things had been unregulated.

Regardless, Naruto's stats were very high and at the top for someone without a partner. This information was already with the Digimon Association or it would have caused a problem when he came out of nowhere during the test.

It led to a further increase in his fame and many people had tried to get him to sign up with their groups. Naruto had even received an invite from the Digi-destined Guild, an elite Digimon group with very powerful members that even had Mega Level Digimon.

Naruto declined as he wished to enjoy his life freely and he had made a promise with the kids that they would start their own group.

Nonetheless, Naruto was on good terms with the Digi-Destined and even knew the leader's sister Kari. Kari was a beautiful girl who was the same age as Rika and this relationship caused Rika worry.

Naruto couldn't just brush Kari off because it would be rude and tried to reason with Rika but it seems it had gotten worse over the week since he had spent it with Takeru and his brother Yamato in the snowy mountains, and Kari had been present along with her brother Taichi.

To him it was just an experience with friends but Rika seems to think that Kari was also interested in him and he couldn't lie, it was true. Kari was interested in him and there were other older girls in to him as well but the feelings were not as strong as Rika since she was the one closest to him.


'This might cause her to develop mental problems.' Naruto was worried that it might lead to inferiority complex and high stress. This might take up too much of her focus and ruin her thought process.

He had thought Rika was strong on the emotional scale but that might have been his misconception.

Naruto was silent for a moment and the boys were worried about their lives as Rika might not be violent towards Naruto, she was definitely violent towards them.

Time seemed to stop in the room as all noise stopped for a moment before Naruto pushed back his chair and stood up.

"Rika, come with me. You guys continue and we will back in a moment." Naruto looked at Rika and took her hand, pulling her up.

She produced no resistance and it wasn't hard to see the anticipation in her eyes. Even the boys had smiles on their faces. They were all best of friends and even Takato had joined them when they were eight years old, so he was also very close.

To them it was good news if their friends were happy and it was bad when they were unhappy. They had been in an awkward situation since the cause of bad feeling was also a friend and the reasoning was thought out.

"Do you think they are gonna kiss?" Takato asked as he whispered into Henry's ear, he was worried that Rika might hear.

"I certainly hope they can just come to an agreement of sorts. It is uncomfortable watching Rika act in such a way." Henry muttered as he stood up and looked out the window. He felt his attention focus on the current situation.

"No kidding, no one saw that coming. Cold Rika turning into that was out of the left field." Takato said in an incredulous tone as he also got up and joined Henry in watching the outside scene.

They were silent for a moment and tried to distract each other with talks about Digimon.


Rika and Naruto walked silently, hand in hand. They walked out of the restaurant as Naruto was unsure how things might develop and he didn't want a scene.

Feeling the gaze on his him, Naruto couldn't keep quiet for too long as they walked on the cold street. There was a small park beside the restaurant where people were playing in the snow.

"What do you want Rika?" Naruto asked in a gentle tone.

Rika narrowed her gaze at him and squeezed his hand. She went with her usual calm persona and didn't act annoyed at the pointless question.

"I want you to prove that there is something between us." Rika answered honestly. She was a confident girl with great potential and privileged life but this was one thing that she had zero certainty about.

She had many reasons to believe that this was one-sided.

Naruto stopped far from the people and they sat down on a bench after clearing the snow, though more continued to fall slowly.

Looking into her eyes, he knew that his words held great power. He had known Rika for a long time. Beautiful and strong, and it would only improve with time.

Anyone would be happy to have her attention.

However, he didn't really feel any attraction. To him she was a little girl. Even if he forgot about the fact that he was still married, Rika was too young.

Ignoring the age, Naruto could feel something that was pulling him towards the girl. The world wanted him to take her for some reason. She wasn't the only as well. Naruto felt such attraction towards few other females and only thing common in them was they were either strong or had potential.

It wasn't hard to guess what the other party wanted from Naruto. The being that reincarnated him wanted him to make powerful children with powerful women.

But that didn't matter now, she was waiting for an answer and a wrong answer could break their team dynamic.

Putting his hand on her delicate chin, Naruto made her look him in the eyes.

"Rika, I will not compromise with my emotions. I will only allow a true relationship. You know that I don't love you in the way that you do. And, I don't really love anyone at the moment. I have never really felt the attraction. However, I know that you are my type so maybe I can definitely fall in love. So, why don't you fight and make me fall for you. Isn't this show of weakness against your path? Do you really want to go down this way? Even Kari hasn't shown such thoughts." Naruto had never compromised on his love life. Otherwise he would have a harem before death since many women wanted to marry him or become his lovers.

Compromise was an accursed word and Naruto truly hated it. All his regrets came from compromises he made with other people that made his life difficult and destroyed his family life. He went from living the life to falling into the dark pit of negativity.

Only in the last moments did he start changing, but that was already too late and he died before he could really enjoy his life. Looking back on his life, Naruto could barely see memories where he enjoyed life. Majority of his life was filled with depression, especially before he met Jiraiya.

"Why? Why are you like this?" Rika couldn't understand why Naruto was acting like this. She was always liked that he was special but his lack of response towards her difficult to accept.

However, hearing his proper response she didn't act emotional. At least he finally treated her seriously and told her something. She was happy to know that he liked her personality in that way. But, why didn't he love her.

"I don't know. Love isn't something you can control, it just happens. You should understand, Rika. I don't think you wished yourself to love me, it just happened one day and it grew over time. Isn't that so?"

"You are such a know it all. You should at least speak less about this topic since you haven't fallen in love." Rika calmed down because of his words, especially because of his comment of her personality and Kari. Rika saw Kari as a rival, so she would never allow herself to be on the lower footing.

"I like reading, so it's just something I read in a book."

Taking a deep breath, Rika calmed down and stared at him with a determined look.

"Fine, I accept your words but don't think I have given up. I will make you fall for me and no one will come between us. I am not sharing you with anyone. Don't even imagine it." Rika caught him by the collar and declared her intent causing him to smile. It was her usual confident and determined persona.

"Hahaha, I like that. Let me see what you can do." Naruto captured her in a hug and chuckled.

With that the night passed by peacefully and the team had averted their first crisis.


After passing time with his friends, Naruto drove back home on his Harley Davidson V-rod after dropping Rika at her place where she insisted to get a kiss on the cheeks in front of the gate knowing that her parents would know.

She was definitely a devious girl that was making sure that he didn't dare break his oath. Naruto didn't find it annoying, just amusing. It was the first time someone had been so calculating with him in these matters.

He could imagine Hinata and Hanabi doing such a thing if Hinata hadn't been broken and was cold like her clan and if Hanabi had liked him when they were young.

When he became Hokage such games were impossible since he owned the world and unlike the previous Hokage he didn't have to care for anyone's view since he could kill everyone alone.

Regardless, Naruto was also feeling excitement as his new adventure was about to start. He had been unable to move to the digital world because of the rules even though he was qualified years ago.

Naruto understand the reasoning and didn't make a scene, and enjoyed the human world. He had been living a chill life but did get into fights with criminal gangs, though he avoided getting into touch with the strong ones.

Other than that there was travelling, games, sports, friends and training. All tamers in training followed a program that prepared them for the future and how to take care of their digimon, and how to capture digimon.


The ride on the way home was comfortable with no traffic because of the snow and the time. The city had changed a lot from the past and was filled with holograms and drones, and many sci-fi components.

The world had advanced a lot but the Uzumaki Household was a traditional place mostly. It was a large area with the traditional Japanese housing style with ponds and gardens.

The whole family lived in the same area and the clan was very well-off as they had shares in the Digital development companies. The Clan also owned a Tournament team. They published books and comics.

They had their own Hospitals and Pharma Companies.

Finally, there was also the dojo for martial arts and digimon training.

Combining all of that, the Uzumaki family was one of the richest families in the World and it also meant that Naruto had met many rich people.

"Welcome back, Naruto-sama. I hope you had a good outing today." Just as Naruto parked his bike in his personal garage with his other bikes and cars, he was greeted by his personal maid.

Hildegarde or just Hilda, an extremely beautiful young woman with glossy blonde hair that covered one side of her face and was usually tied in a bun, forest green eyes and had a large bust. Her clothes were mostly elegant and maid clothes that came to her knees instead of the long dress.

Her voice was respectful and calm as she greeted him and took his jacket along with the helmet, placing them in their place.

"I am back, Hilda. Everything was good in the outing, what about the residence? Anything I should know?" Naruto asked as he walked to the entrance and stopped for Hilda.

She was done in a second. Just like Naruto, she was special. Hilda was a New Type or Hybrid. She was child between a human and a digimon.


Hilda had demonic origins, so one of her parents was a dark digimon. This meant that Hilda was part digimon and a powerful being that not even the mutants could compare to most of the time.

She was born with high stats and dark abilities but seemed to have lost her parents and had been found by Naruto's Uncle, Darui.

Hilda was not the only one as the Uzumaki Clan had many maids and among them there were other New Types as well.

Ruri and Morrigan were the two other maids with dark digimon as parents while the head maid Roberta had machine empire parent.

All of them were extremely powerful Tamers and stood at the top of the Uzumaki clan and they were maids by choice.

All of them served the clan with extreme loyalty for saving them and taking them in as they had no family. Nobody knew their parents since it was hard to trace the lineage with a New Type.

Being powerful beings with dangerous powers that could compare to champion level digimon in most cases, the New Types were forced to wear a suppressor on their body. It could be a collar or bracelet or a ring, it was the user's choice.

This regulated the power of the person and slowly unlocked it. It was fully unlocked once the person was registered and passed the test.

Naruto was a mutant or advanced human, this was a term used for Tamers and children of Tamers as their bodies mutated from the bond with the digimon or by itself when large energy waves happened.

All mutants had above human stats and some even developed superpowers before even getting together with a digimon.

But unlike New Types, a mutant without a digimon would never win against a Tamer with a champion Digimon. There was a difference in level of power between Champion and Rookie, Mutants mostly ended up in the middle of this scale while New Types were on the champion range most of the time.

Among the mutants, Naruto was the exception as he was comparable to the top New Types.

Even though people got all this power, it lowered once they were not in a fight. Tamers shared stats with their digimon partners so it was better to finish the digimon before attacking the tamer. Most Tamers outside of battle wouldn't be in their full power state as it was stressful and this allowed for weaker people to take them out.


Hilda stood behind Naruto and looked at him with a clear gaze. She had chosen to serve Naruto when he had just been two years old and she had been seven.

She had felt that he was special and decided to follow him. She had trained with discipline and got the respect of the world as a powerful Tamer.

She was happy with her current life style and found amusement in working as a maid for the young master.

Just like what she had felt, he had turned out to be exceptional. It was such a surprise that no one in the clan could beat him in a battle, meaning none in the world could fight him without their digimon.

He was wise beyond his years and extremely kind. People blessed like him usually ended up rotten but Naruto showed no such thing.

She had been taking care of him since a young age and following him around. This seemed to have turned that adoration for the young master into love when he became a dashing young man.

She finally saw him as a man and not a child that she was going to follow.

Hilda loved him but she didn't voice it in such a way and didn't care about being in such a relationship. She was happy to stay as his maid and would be happy if he showed some interest from time to time.

It felt like she would be stepping out of bounds if she asked for more.

"Master Menma seemed to have come across the Bagra Army on his mission and escaped with the help from the Phantom Thieves. He was just talking about owing a favor to Joker before realizing that the thieves had swiped his treasures. He is in the gym venting his rage fighting against Ruri." Hilda answered clearly causing Naruto to chuckle at the scene that was painted. He had an older brother by two years called Menma, who looked the same as him except with black hair and red eyes.

He also had a younger sister called Rias who took after his mother.

On the other hand, the Phantom Thieves were a dark guild that stole from everyone and were wanted by the digimon association.

None had caught them and most believed that they lived in the Digital world but there had been targets in the human world to break that misconception. They seemed to somehow keep away from the system, meaning they had a powerful Hacker on their team to keep them hidden or the system would catch them when they entered the digital world or came back to the human world.

"He wasn't in real danger was he?" Naruto asked as he walked towards his room since others would have gone to sleep now and he had already eaten.

"According to the master, he could have escaped with some trouble since it was just a scout group and the commanding office was not in sight."

Naruto nodded as he felt better about that. He would have been worried if Menma had actually gotten in a real dangerous situation. The Bagra Empire was one of the strongest forces of the Digital world and they seemed to be intent on conquering all territories.

They followed the rules so the Royal Knights didn't interfere but the army had killed every human they came across.

Bagra hated humans, just like how some human groups hated all digimon.

"That's good, have you eaten Hilda?" Naruto asked as there were times she would wait for him to come back home to eat together.

"Fufufu, was young master interested in eating together? Apologies, I had a meal together with my sisters." Hilda covered her mouth with her hand and gave a short laugh. She was formal but she liked to become closer.

Naruto was aware of her feelings, just like the past he had gotten the empath ability in this world. Once he became a tamer, most of his abilities would return in full force and even go higher if he got his partner to higher levels.

There were Digimon that made his prime look like fodder.

"Yes, I was thinking of accompanying you for dinner." Naruto replied calmly causing a smile to appear on her lips. She was happy with such a small gesture.

"Then, I can make some space for the young master."

"Good, let me take a shower and I will meet you in the dining room." Naruto turned around and looked at Hilda who stood shorter than him as he had grown to his full height of 1.9 meters, standing tallest in the family except in front of Roberta and Darui.
