Alright just to clarify a few things first
1 no Ashura/Indra reincarnates that kinda ruins the theme of naruto tbh
2 this prologue will mostly be narration for a few hundred words then we see what makes this fic go in a different direction then canon for another few hundred words then next chapter will be longer. Also this chapter won't have much dialogue. I am sorry for this but i don't have any ideas for dialogue this chapter until the end
And three naruto will be even more powerful than in canon... eventually... maybe... I don't know... Who knows... not me
Anyways without further ado lets get started
Prologue: Destiny changed begin
Naruto Uzumaki.
That was a name many people despised, No detested. Almost every person in Konoha detested that name. Why? Well, Naruto Uzumaki was a jinchuuriki which means the power of human sacrifice. His body was sacrificed to be the vessel for the Kyuubi no kitsune who nearly destroyed the village of Konohagakure 6 years ago on October tenth which coincidentally was young naruto's birthday. Because of this and people's lack of knowledge of fuinjutsu (the art of sealing), He was hated. People were never physically abusive towards Naruto as that would invoke the law of the sandaime but they would just either yell at him horrible things or would just completely ignore him.
There were other things people would do to him like selling him rotten food or just having prices for everything jacked up but by far the worst thing they did was ignore him. Naruto felt like his existence wasn't valid so he played pranks or just was loud and brash to get others attention hoping it would make people notice him. But unluckily for him, it had the opposite effect. People would just double down on what they did to him. Some people took pity on him and talked to the boy even if it was just a few seconds. They still pitied the boy enough to do something.
One of these people was the sandaime Hokage who gave naruto his father's old apartment when he was kicked out of his orphanage at four. The sandaime has done other things to help naruto since then but none of them really that much. At most he would take Naruto to get a bowl of ramen on his birthday. Other people just let them eat at their restaurants at a normal price instead of double or triple the price. But this was not enough for Naruto so he craved attention even more than before.
Naruto would latch on to any little drop of attention he could get. Good or bad. He just wanted to be acknowledged by someone, anyone as a person instead of nothing or just as a monster for a crime he never even committed. To Naruto, the number of people that cared about him could be counted on three fingers and they all just pitied him. But he didn't care for him; they still must have cared at least somewhat if they pitied him like that. But one day he wanted to find at least one person who cared enough to be his friend. Or just even something to cling to, anything it didn't matter what just as long as people would pay attention to him because of it
His desire for attention led to his dream to become Hokage. He thought it would make people love him. He just needed to take the steps to become the Hokage then he could become Hokage!
Today was a big day for Naruto. He was going to enter the academy, he was about to begin his path to becoming Hokage! Then everyone would love him.
*BZZZZ* *BZZZ* *BZZ- *crack* Naruto's hand smashed the poor alarm clock. Naruto got out of bed, head still full of dreams of being Hokage whilst being fed ramen by a pretty girl who was his wife telling him how awesome he was. Naruto then stretched out then opened his closet grabbing a white t-shirt with some stains he couldn't get out on the front and on the back was a giant red swirl and orange pants with some small tears and stains on them. It would be the outfit he would wear to his first day in the academy.
He then took off his pajamas and put his new clothing on then stepped out of his room, and into the hallway. His apartment was actually fairly nice, a bit old but it was actually pretty nice. It was clean. there were no holes in the floor, walls, or roof. The place also was fairly big for one person.
Naruto then went into his kitchen and grabbed his step ladder. He honestly has no idea why he puts his ramen cups so high up but he did. He grabbed around five and just decided to pour it all in a bowl and heat it up. He didn't have a lot of time today. As soon as his ramen was ready he began to dig into his meal of cheap cup ramen. It wasn't that good but it gets the job done.
He then put his bowl in the sink with all of his other dishes. He would wash them... eventually.
Naruto then left his apartment, locking it on his way out and putting his key in his toad wallet. He then said goodbye to the outside plants he had and left off to the academy.
"Today is the day I begin my path to becoming Hokage!" Naruto spoke up. He was looking at the Hokage monument which had the faces of the four Hokage engraved into the face of the stone. Naruto then began to walk the path to the academy. Konoha was currently alive in every sense of the word. The birds were chirping, the trees were greener than usual, the sky was blue, the sun was shining, and the people were happy. The civilians were all in the streets of Konoha along with some shinobi. The hustle and bustle of Konoha would be calming for most unless you were antisocial, emo, or just hated the sun you would find this calming.
People were out happily shopping, talking with other people, or just running around enjoying the nice spring breeze. They were just enjoying life. All in all, it was a great morning
Then Naruto began to walk through. You see, for him the path to the academy went straight through the shopping district of Konoha. The busiest district of Konoha. The mood went down as did the temperature everybody was glaring at him with hateful looks in their eyes. Children were pointing and whispering or just yelling obscenities at the young blond. Naruto looked oblivious but in reality, he knew. He saw the stares. The hatred. The absolute burning hatred. He could see it in their eyes they despised him and he didn't know why. He wished they would stop. He didn't want to be glared at. He didn't want it at all. It made him feel bad and it brought pain to his tiny heart. He decided he could not take it anymore. He ran away from the glares. He couldn't take it anymore. The glares were too much; he just felt unwanted and like he wasn't wanted. To most, he was unwanted, and most who did want him only wanted him for their own selfish gain.
Naruto was crying. He ran through the shopping district eventually reaching the civilian district of Konoha. The people began to glare at him there too..
He cried even more
Naruto weaved through buildings and people, crying he didn't deserve the glares he was only a child. He never did anything wrong... other than small pranks. Naruto eventually made it to a forest where he just sat and cried. He didn't deserve to be ignored, glared at, or hated for no reason no one did. Yet here he was alone in a forest crying as no one gave a damn about him truly. He just wished his parents were still around. But sadly they weren't. Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki were dead. Naruto sadly didn't know that he thought they were either dead or just abandoned him. No child ever deserved that kind of pain. It was just that plain and simple
Naruto just wanted people to notice and care but yet no one did. At least not yet not until now
"Why are you crying?" A calm, monotone voice asked. It didn't sound kind, yet it wasn't a mean voice either. Naruto took note of that. Naruto looked up to see a pale man, he had no eyebrows, a long ponytail, a tattoo on the left side of his face, ear piercings, and the thing Naruto noticed most was A diamond mark on his chin.
"W-Who are y-you?" Naruto asked. He didn't trust this man and something told him he needed to run away but yet he didn't. The man already seemed nicer than all of Konoha after all
"I'm Jigen. Now may I ask why are you crying?`` Jigen said. Naruto trusted him even though a voice that was yelling in the back of his mind was now screaming at him to run away and find the Hokage or any other high-level shinobi.
"*Sniffle* E-everyone hates me *Sniffle* I-I-I don't even know w-why, `Naruto said. He was trying his best to hold down his tears in front of Jigen but it clearly didn't work.
"Everybody hates you. Why don't you come with me? I can get you away from all of this hatred." jigen asked putting out his hand towards naruto.
Naruto slowly put out his hand. He felt that he could trust jigen.
"NO DON'T!" A voice shouted in his mind . distressed
He put his hand out further. Someone was offering him a chance at a better life he couldn't reject.
"STOP YOU IDIOT YOU'RE GOING TO DOOM US BOTH," That same voice said. He was cursing Naruto out mentally as he knew this guy was bad news.
Naruto's tiny hand reached jigen. He made his choice
"YOU FOOL" That voice said but it was too late naruto had decided to go with jigen
"P-please sir P-please take me with you," Naruto said, sealing his fate.
Jigen smiled slightly. He felt the chakra within naruto scream. "Okay, let's go then," Jigen said, opening a portal. He beckoned Naruto to step through and he did as did jigen.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO-" The voice screamed one final time
Prologue: Destiny changed end
