Chapter 7

Inuzuka compound 7:21

Naruto was standing in front of a Torii on the southeast side of the compound next to one of the many small lakes in the village. He was accompanied by a mature looking woman with wild spiky brown hair and animalistic characteristics with black slit eyes.

She was wearing a flak jacket with a black suit underneath. This was Tsume Inuzuka, the head of the Inuzuka clan and the mother of Hana and Kiba inuzuka.

"Is this where you guys train?" Naruto said with confusion in his voice. "I.. don't really see a field or anything, just a large red construct"

"Just watch" Tsume replied, the clan head then clasped her hands together as chakra fluctuated from her head-to-head, strange symbols appeared on the ground as the symbols were split apart in three rows creating an oval right underneath Naruto and Tsume.

Tsumes chakra that was embedded inside the symbols started to change into mokai. Three more symbols appeared on the Torii one was on the top, the second at the left leg and the third at the right. Inside the oval of symbols. Naruto was astonished. He was shocked and all of the above to what was happening. He had no idea the Inuzuka's used this to train, it only made even more eager to see what happens next.

All of a sudden, the symbols on the ground started to float upward. All of a they started to spin and synchronize and fly toward the torii and started to spin in the form of a swirl.

A ripple formed inside the torii as it got bigger and bigger until it finally broke like glass.

"Whooaaaa" Naruto said, "Is this where you guys train"

"Yeah and the sy-" Tsume was then cut off when Naruto jumped through the portal.

Tsume sighed at Naruto's action.

'I should've expected that Tsume said as she walked through the portal and as she did she sped through hand signs causing the portal to close.

Tsume was now in a strange place, she was in a forest with large trees with thorns spread apart fifteen meters. Large rocks protruded from the green grass and ended at sharp points.

Tsume knelt down as she sniffed the ground. Much like a dog, a mental image of Naruto appeared in front of her. The apparition of Naruto looked around this domain with an entranced look on his face.

All of a sudden the apparition of Naruto disappeared as all of a sudden tsume felt on edge.

Tsume felt a strange feeling in her head, Tsumes body tensed as she jumped to the right avoiding a giant snake that flew in her direction trying to swallow her whole.

Tsume clenched her fist as the muscles in her arm bulged. She then slammed her fist into the snake's side, the snake was blown in half as blood splattered everywhere.

The snake was still alive though his head was basically separated from the rest of its body. Tsumes fingernails extended as she dashed towards the snake's head.

Meanwhile inside a large forest

Three humanoid creatures approximately seven feet seven inches with gray skin we're hopping from tree to tree. A few meters in front of them was a white figure swinging on the trees like a monkey keeping up its momentum.

The white figure jumped off another tree as he vanished. Shocked and confused faces grew on the three creature's faces in unison.

In a green and red flash the leader of the three was smashed across the head sending him flying towards the ground like a bullet. The other two suffered deadly hits to the lower stomach and face as they were sent flying one to the right and one to the left crashing through trees.

The leader of the three was in a small crater as a result of the impact. A white hand with claws dug into the creature's chest causing it to grunt in pain. The hand lifted itself up in the air while holding onto the gray creature's ribs so it could lift him up as well. The creature looked forward as he saw the same white figure in the distance. The arm then shot back with a rush causing the gray skinned creature to follow. The last thing he saw was a white creature and then nothing but sharp teeth.

25 minutes later

Tsume was walking covered in scratches, blood going down her leg and dripping from her fingernails but it wasn't hers, "I haven't felt this excited in a while I should do this more" Tsume said with a smirk on her face. " My bloods pumping to the maximum"

"My skills are a little rusty but with enough time in here I'll be back to my old self" Tsume said as she continued to walk.

The image of naruto appeared as a part of her felt worried like a mother to her cubs, but a bigger part of her wasn't worried knowing how strong he was. In some ways he reminded her of his father and how he conquered any obstacle that came his way no matter how hard or complex.

Tsume giggled even in death Minato you live on through your son. Little did she know from her last battle with a mindless snake humanoid left its venom in her body when it bit her in the leg. With the inuzuka's accelerated healing the wound closed leaving the poison in her body.

Out of nowhere a loud crash erupted behind tsume, she turned around and got on guard ready to gut her new opponent.

As the smoke started to clear the sound of two creatures growing echoed throughout the vicinity. Then the sound of flesh being torn. Blood splattered everywhere flying out of the smoke, some landing at Tsumes feet.

As the smoke started to clear Tsume could see the outline of something large.

A white creature with red tattoos covering most of its body was revealed when the smoke finally dissipated. Tsume was unnerved to see the white creature was covered in blood with intestines laying in its hands and sticking out of its mouth from the creature he was on top of. The creature lifted its head, its long berry colored hair covering parts of his face including its blood red eyes gazing at her.

The thing eyed her up and down as it stood up standing at seven feet nine inches. The white creature slowly walked towards Tsume taking exaggeratingly slow steps. Tsume got uncomfortable and uneasy feeling very un confident, a large smile formed on the creatures as its eyes widened abnormally as drool went down his chin.

The uneasiness in her soul got stronger and stronger and her sixth sense had been ringing in her head telling her to run, run as fast as she could.

All of a sudden the thing burst out laughing. Its voice sounded like two individuals: the monster and the human. This utterly confused tsume as her face shifted into confusion.

This caused the creature to laugh even harder as he held his sides. A lightbulb then went off Tsume's head as a scowl formed on her face.

The creature's body then twisted and contorted itself, getting smaller and smaller as its skin turned a light tan and it's laugh sounded more human as the seconds went by.

Naruto Uzumaki started to laugh like a hyena as tears came from his eyes.

"Ha ha You should have seen your face".

Naruto was then bobbed on the head stopping his hysterical laughing. Naruto looked up at the clan head with a goofy frown on his face. Naruto then noticed something was off. Tsumes veins were purple from head to toe.

"Hey you alright?"

Not a second later a purple tint formed on her neck and her entire head . Tsume looked rather unbothered by the situation. A second later the poison in her system started to be wiped away as the purple color in her face and veins faded away.

"It's gonna take more than poison to force me to my knees"

"Yeahhh by the looks a bigger and badder monster needs to assert more dominance and your damn near pissing yourse-"

Naruto didn't get to finish what he said as he was then punched in the gut sending him flying through trees.

2 hours later

A wormhole opened in the torii as Naruto and Tsume walked through back into the real world. It was now late a night almost ten o'clock, the entire village along inuzuka clan were asleep.

"So, this is how Kiba's sixth sense got more precise" Naruto said, stretching his triceps while walking. "This really sharpens your skills better than any training regime"

"Yeah, it really puts you through the ringer" Tsume responded

"Who made this thing?" Naruto said. "Could I meet this person?" Naruto said wanting to meet the person that made this pocket dimension, so he or she could possibly teach him. Tsume looked at the redhead's smile as a frown formed on her face, "I-it was your father".

Tsume thought Naruto's happy mood would waver, but that wasn't the case Naruto was surprised.

"Really my dad was a seal master!" Naruto said. Tsume was surprised from Naruto's reaction. She thought Naruto still had resentment towards his father.

But by the looks of i Naruto got over it. Tsume went on with the conversation as she responded, "He actually wasn't your mother was a seal master"

"Your mother showed him ropes in fuinjutsu and he excelled dramatically taking the art of seals and using it in fantastic ways"

"But when it came to that pocket dimension and how he made it I have no clue. But by what people have experienced it's like a video game that shoots enemies at you that are your level and as you grow in power so does the enemies" Tsume said.

Hearing this Naruto wondered back to the technique he stumbled upon the domain expansion.

The symbols that would appear as soon as he activated it resembled the portal in the torii open. And just like his domain expansion the dimension he came out of was a pocket dimension.

This recent news wanted Naruto wondered what else could his father do when he was alive. Naruto put that thought behind him as he went on with the conversation.

"Hmph guess dad was truly ahead of his time"

"Indeed he was" Tsume replied.

The conversation didn't go any further than that as they stopped talking.

The two stopped at the doors of the inuzuka head house.

Tsume looked at Naruto with a hint of curiosity.

"So you… don't hate your father anymore?" Tsume said.

"At first I did but then I realized what happened to me wasn't his fault it was the old man's fault" Naruto said.

"Out of anger for losing his wife he told the entire village that the monster that attacked the village was me"

Anger filled Tsumes heart remembering what the third hokage did. Dishonoring Minato's wishes and condemning the boy to a childhood no child should have to go through.

"But what's done is done I know how to get them back" Naruto said, opening the door for Tsume.

The woman didn't know what to say, she couldn't find the words to reply to what he just said.

Accepting her lack of words Tsume walked inside her house as she closed the door leaving Naruto outside. Naruto turned his back to the house as he walked away intending on going to his home in the forest.

Three days later

Naruto was in his bed sleeping, drool was going down the side of his mouth as he snored loudly. The sound of someone knocking on the door echoed through the house. Naruto continued to snore loudly, outside on the other side of the door was a bear masked female anbu with blue hair. She knocked again with a little more strength behind it but yet again he heard the sound of naruto snoring inside the house. It couldn't be seen because of the mask but the female anbu was getting irritated.

"I'm probably risking my life if I do this" The anbu said.

The anbu then focused chakra into her left arm then banged on the door. The snoring stopped as the house was quiet, in fact the entire forest had gone quiet as this anbu was the only person on earth. The blue haired anbu backed away from the door as she walked backwards as she walked off of the porch and stopped.

The bear masked anbu then noticed something in the window of the house. There was something red on the other side of the window. At first it was transparent but slowly the red glow got brighter. It then turned into a dark red as the eyes started to float up all the way to the ceiling. The bear masked anbu started to get anxious as she started to sweat profusely as her heart rate increased greatly as her breathing seemingly got depleted.

The dark glowing red eyes then moved to the left from her perspective. They then disappeared from the frame of the window, shortly after the sound of the door unlocked. For a few seconds nothing happened, the door didn't open there was no sound of crunching branches or leaves, just absolute silence.

The door then slowly opened to reveal naruto. His skin was paper white, his eyes were black and his pupils were dark red with a black slit in his pupil surrounded by two other black slits that bent around the black slit almost creating a circle if they connected. Naruto's pajamas were torn and his pants were by the looks barely covering what was down there.

It couldn't be seen by normal eyes but naruto being something supernatural he could see behind the mask.

A young woman with green eyes and fair skin. Her skin was bright red with sweat going down her face, her eyes were wide open, and she was speechless as she gazed down at what stretched almost down to the floor. It didn't even look like it fit an eleven year old's body; it belonged to a full-grown man that does nothing but work out.

"Yeah appealing ain't it but what is it"

The bear masked anbu snapped back to reality as she spoke, "U-Uzumaki san the..gulp hokage wanted.. me to tell all team seven to meet up at the hokage office at twelve" The anbu said stuttering.

"It's seven oclock in the morning and I'm still trying to get some sleep" Naruto growled in frustration as his voice changed from human to that of a monster

The anbu was about to speak but naruto interrupted, "It's fine you were just following orders" Naruto said in a now calm human tone.

"You can go attend to your duties or whatever you were doing" Naruto said as he walked inside his house and shut the door. The bear faced anbu was left anxious and left thinking about the thing she saw.

"What was that th-" The bear masked anbu stopped as she tried to pry the image of naruto's lower appendage, the anbu then vanished out of the forest as she later appeared on top of a building in the city of konoha.

Meanwhile naruto cursed Hiruzen's name as he set his alarm clock for twelve noon as he crawled back in his bed.

"This thing better be important or I swear Hiruzen will be forced to pray to the gods when I'm done having a field day with this village"

For the next few minutes that turned into an hour naruto tried to go back to sleep but to his disapproval was unsuccessful.

Twelve noon

Naruto walked through the streets of konoha, an irritated look on his face as he growled and mumbled curses under his breath. His eyes were black with red veins inside making his eyes look like broken glass as it started from his dark red iris.

Naruto then bumped into someone as he kept walking, not caring about what he just did.

"Hey demon watch where you're going" A drunken man said, holding a bottle in his hand.

"Shut it you fat shit"

The drunken man got angry hearing this in his drunken state which angered to the extreme. He then stomped towards Naruto as he raised his bottle intending on smashing it on his head. All of a sudden the man was slapped across the face by a white blur as he was sent flying into a building crashing through it's window.

Everyone that saw what happened were shocked and worried for the man's life. The villagers were confused at first wondering what hit him, but they soon got their answer when they saw naruto's white scaly tail sticking from the back of his pants. Some of the villagers went to help the man as they cursed naruto's name. The other villagers stared at naruto with a mixture of hatred and fear.

They whispered hateful words under their breaths, but Naruto could hear them clearly. It took everything within Naruto to not make them relive what happened all those years ago.

Naruto put those thoughts aside as he continued to walk down the road of the village.

Naruto later walked through the door of the hokage office as we walked inside. In response to hearing the door open sasuke and sakura looked back to see naruto's gloomy face. Noticing Kakashi wasn't here he groaned in a voice deeper than his regular voice.

"What's the mission"

"This is an A-rank escort mission to wave" Hiruzen said.

"Who is it were escorting" Sasuke asked.

"The bridge builder Tazuna" Hiruzen replied. "Well where's tazuna?" Sakura said.

As soon as sakura said that the door opened as the smell of alcohol consumed the room, sakura covered her nose on instinct while naruto and sasuke were unphased.

"Are you kidding me, these are a bunch of kids" A man said. The man looked to be in his forties with a white beard, "Do not be fooled sir these three are one of the strongest genin in the village" Hiruzen said.

"Oh please these-"

Tazuna was interrupted when sasuke spoke, "Sir I suggest you be grateful were actually going on this mission because we don't have to do this and I can just deliver you to gato on a silver platter" Sasuke said his voice sounding like two as he spoke, one human one sounding monstrous.

Hiruzen sighed as he rubbed the bridge of his nose

Hearing this Tazuna was struck with fear not only by the uchihas voice but at the thought of being in the hands of gato.

Seeing this sasuke felt very amused since he was awakened from his beauty sleep and he wanted to find a way to humor himself without doing something extravagant.

Sakura was completely shocked not expecting that voice to come out of sasuke, it barely even sounded like him.

"Come on let's go" Naruto said as he walked away from the desk with the other two following behind him as they walked through the door of the office.

"You too old man" Sasuke said with the two conjoined voices coming from his mouth, again startling tazuna and sakura again for the second time.

10 minutes later

Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura and Tazuna were walking down a dirt road. Sasuke and Naruto knew Kakashi would be late, or he would show up later in the mission. Sakura wanted to oppose naruto's idea but she kept quiet not wanting to piss off naruto.

Tazuna was agitated and worried, he doubted that these kids would keep him alive.

Sakura was still thinking about what happened in the hokage's office. That voice that came from Sasuke's mouth it still left her frightened and confused.

"T-That couldn't have been Sasuke's voice. Yeah I was just hearing things Sasuke's voice is sweet and calm". Naruto could sense how she was feeling as he rolled his eyes in annoyance, because he knew she would react like this as more and more unknown things naruto knew about Sasuke would be revealed.

"Uh guys were in the middle of spring right?" Sakura said as she noticed a large puddle of water in the middle of the dirt road.

"Yeah" Naruto replied like Sakura was stupid for asking that question. "Then why is there a puddle?" Sakura said, pointing at the puddle in front of them as the space between them got smaller and smaller.

"Don't worry about it. It'll evaporate soon" Naruto said in an uncaring tone.

"But-"

"Don't worry about it"

Sakura looked toward Sasuke as she wanted to say something but the words died in her throat and decided to stay quiet as she got more anxious as they got closer and closer to the puddle. As they did, Sakura felt the smallest sliver of chakra inside of it.

Naruto walked forward as Sakura started to get even more weary. She could feel the chakra inside the water.

Naruto stepped on the water and nothing happened. The same happened with sasuke as he stepped in the water, tazuna and Sakura cautiously walked around the puddle while Sakura kept her eyes on it.
