Chapter 5- The Hero's Bridge Part 1
Naruto arrived back to Taunza house when he overheard Kakashi conversation to his team "Alright it's time to work on how to climb a tree we would already been done if it weren't for Sasuke giving us this mission" he said glaring at Sasuke for the last part making Sasuke scoffed. "Kakashi-Sensei is right it important to learn this now since it also a great exercise for chakra control" Naruto said making his present know and was immediately glomp by his teammates "Where have you been mister, we were worrying sick about you since you didn't come back last night" Kurenai lightly scolded causing Naruto to scratch his head "Yeah sorry about that to make it up I help you guy with the training and I know a great spot "he said.
Back at the pond…
"Here we are, this was the area I slept in. It is great for tree and water walking," Naruto said, making Kakashi and Kurenai nodding at the surroundings in approval. Kiba sniffed the air "Urge it smells like a couple were having sex" he said clutching his nose making Naruto frowned "That strange I haven't seen anyone around hmm must have come after I left" he said confusingly. Kakashi explains to both teams how to climb the tree using perfect chakra control; Naruto, Ino and Hinata got it first try, then Sakura got on her fifth and then Kiba on his tenth. Sasuke was seething because he was last in this training "Sasuke you're still putting too much to climb, bring it dow-" Naruto tried to say "Shut it I do not need your help!" Sasuke spit back and climbed the tree once more only to fall hard. Sasuke groaned and sat up and looked at his appearance; he landed in a pool of some white sticky substance "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS" he shouted and ran into the pond to wash the substance off with Sakura trying to help. The seven tailed beasts laughed hard making Naruto suspicious they had been laughing and giggling all day and he was getting to the bottom of this.
At Nightfall…
They arrived back for dinner and were chatting up a storm although Naruto noticed that Tsunami was looking at him with a blush but ignored it for now "Naruto I think it's time to tell them" Saiken said, making him nod. "Guys I have an announcement to make: Zabuza is still alive. We have been duked." Everyone was in shocked "Great I can fight him and kill him myself" Sasuke said "So that means the hunter nin was working with Zabuza and did what he did incase Zabuza was losing" Ino pointed out making Naruto nod "So the no eyebrows are still alive; well, we are all going to the bridge tomorrow because he might be there since it been three days and my strength has fully come back" Kakashi said and for that dinner was finishes.
While the others are asleep Naruto enters a dream-like state. "Where am I" Naruto questions
looked around and then he saw a man floating in midair. He wore a white, full-length kimono with a pattern of six black magatama around a high collar, beneath which, he wore a necklace which was also made up of six black magatama. On the back of his kimono was a larger, black marking with a pattern of nine magatama arranged in three rows of three. Greetings Naruto." the man spoke in the kind voice that echoed with power. Naruto backed up in fear of this man for fear of being attacked. "Whoa whoa Naruto calm down I'm not going to hurt you." Naruto looked at this man confused and curious.
"How do you know my name?"
That is easy...I know how to recognize a descendant of my blood when I see them...my name is Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki...but you may know me as Rikudo Sennin." Naruto's eyes widened in shock as he had even heard of the ancient shinobi who was said to create all ninjutsu.
"You were the one who created ninjutsu?!" Naruto said shocked.
"Ninshu." Hagoromo corrected irritated.
"Ninshu?"
"Yes Ninshu, the art that I created was meant to spread peace don't compare that to the tools of war that your ancestors created." Hagoromo said as he remembered the art that his followers had corrupted. So why are you here?"
"I'm here to train you as my successor in all ninshu."
"Your successor?!" naruto asked excited
"Yes you will have the powers of Asura"
So what does this have to do with me?" Naruto asked clinging to Hagoromo's every word
As I said I am here to make you my successor in Ninshu…you hold two powers, the "body" powerful life force and physical energy of the Senju, and the chakra of the Uzumaki and the shape manipulation that will help you reach new levels of Ninshu." Hagoromo said.
What does that have to do with me?" Naruto asked
"You are Asura reincarnated and with his power you also have the chakra of seven but I will give you a gift...all the powers of the Ninshu." Naruto was practically bouncing off the walls with happiness but held it together for the sake of looking dignified, but Hagoromo wasn't done. But there is more...when those powers combine you get the rinnegan which are even stronger than the Mangekyo Sharingan. Naruto was bouncing off the walls unable to contain his excitement any longer. After a while of bouncing off the walls Naruto looked back at his new teacher ready to learn. Just then a tall and pale-skinned man with hairless brow ridges and waist-length white hair appeared and right next to him was a small girl. The man's bangs were short and hung to the left side of his face with a chin-length lock which hung from the right side of his face. He also had small horn-like protrusions on his forehead and the renowned Byakugan in each of his eyes. He wore a light, full-length kimono with a pattern of six black magatama around a high collar and dark pants. He had his sword in its sheath strapped to his left hip. He also had a dark crescent moon representing the Yin mark in his left palm. The girl Naruto recognized was his teammate Hinata.
"Hinata?!"
"Naruto?!"
"Hamura?!"
"Hagoromo?!"
…
…
…
…
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" All four asked, confused.
"Me I was just asleep and woke up here"
"That happened to me too"
"Training my successor in what is to come." Both Hagoromo and Hamura glared at each other. "In my pocket dimension that I created." WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOUR POCKET DIMENSION WE CREATED IT TOGETHER YOU MORON!?" Both Naruto and Hinata looked at each other then back at the arguing adults confused. After a few minutes of arguing Hagoromo held up a hand and they both stopped.
"Ok okay." Hagoromo said. "So, we both agree that we created this place together right."
"Yep."
"And we both intended to bring our chosen successor here without knowing the other intended to do the same."
"Yep."
"And so we are both in agreement that they can train here together and that it would be good to have a partner to work with in order to learn how to work with others?"
"Yes"
"Sounds about right." Hamura nodded, then he and his brother looked at their new apprentices. "Okay you two we're going to train both of you over until the sun rises so that leaves us over eight hours so let's get started.
Eight Hours Later…
Naruto woke up and looked at the mirror as saw the Rinnegan and both his hands have a sun and moon marking on each and turned off the Rinnegan "So you have unlocked our father's powers hmmm interesting however this power is hard to control be warned" Son Goku said making Naruto nod "Maybe gramps can help me with this power" he thought than adding "I wonder how Hinata feeling"
With Hinata
She woke up in a sweat and looked in the mirror to see the Tenseigan "So it was real "she said quietly deactivated it before realizing today is the big day Zabuza will be returning.
A/N: Okay when writing for this chapter it got too long so I had to split it into two parts but anyways Hagoromo has chosen Naruto as his successor and Hamura has chosen Hinata and Hanabi (This will be explained next chapter)
