On the morning of April 6, I woke up and woke up Mito, who was sleeping next to me, hugging my arm. In general, at first, when we just moved to the hostel, each of us slept in our apartment, but one day Mito stayed with me until night and fell asleep. The clone, who was next to her, did not want to wake her up and just put her in my bed. I, when I came back tired after training, waved my hand at it and also fell asleep in bed. From that day on, Mito began to sleep with me, and was firmly registered in my apartment on a permanent basis, she even transferred some of her belongings to my apartment. Somehow this situation began to smell wrong ... but on reflection, I scored on it. Although Mito is my own sister, but due to the changes in the genome caused by the Hoshingan installation, from a purely biological point of view, she is the same relative to me as Uchiha Madara, and Rikudo Sennin, and Kaguya Ootsutsuki - in general, very distant.
After breakfast, we went to the welcome ceremony for the freshmen of the Shinobi Academy. In the courtyard of the academy, a lot of people from clan and clanless shinobi gathered, and sometimes civilians came across who brought their children to enrollment.
We all listened to the Hokage's inspired propaganda speech about the Will of Fire, the village ruler himself looked like an old man in a red robe and white cloak, wearing a white square hat with the hieroglyph "Fire" on his head. On the surface, you can't say that he is the strongest shinobi in Konoha, but the Hokage was always chosen first of all for his strength, so in battle this old man can really protect the village.
The essence of the Will of Fire is the protection of your loved ones and the village, for the sake of which you need to become a strong shinobi in order to protect what is dear to you.
After the Hokage's speech, the students were dismissed to classrooms, where we began to introduce students to each other and the teacher. Mito and I ended up in the A-class, where there were many heirs of the clans. Our class teacher was Umino Iruka - a clanless, not very strong chuunin. He was a young black-haired guy with long hair tied in a ponytail at the back. Iruka's hallmark was a horizontal scar that crossed the bridge of his nose.
Introducing himself as Umino Iruka, he told a little about himself and asked everyone to stand in turn, give their first and last name, age, as well as what you are striving for or dreaming about.
Many, such as Sakura Haruno, wanted to become strong shinobi or kunoichi. Someone like Ino Yamanaka and Kiba Inuzuka wanted to become worthy heirs to their clans. Sasuke Uchiha wanted to surpass his older brother. Hinata Hyuga wanted to be more confident. And, of course, Mito:
- I, Mito Uzumaki, I am almost six, and I want to become the youngest female Hokage, dattebayo! - the red-haired girl enthusiastically proclaimed that she clearly expected after her speech stormy applause of admiration, but only malevolent chuckles were heard in the audience.
- Hey, what are you laughing at, dattebayo ?! Normal dream, dattebayo! It will be better than all sorts of worthy heirs, all sorts of clans there! - began to get angry, but Iruka stopped her and told everyone to calm down, and she sat back. Mito sat down a little upset and offended. I was next:
- I, Naruto Tatsumaki, I am also six years old and I want to help one person to become the youngest female Hokage ... well, also to found a clan and take over the world, here. - I said with a slight amusement, but my words did not arouse any amusement in anyone. After all, when a little six-year-old girl tells her innermost dream, you can laugh at her, and when a six-year-old boy, who looks ten or eleven years old or two heads taller than almost everyone, talks about his plans, there is no laughing matter here and most likely everyone has the question is, what has this senior student forgotten and why is he pretending to be a freshman?
Sitting back into place, Mito moved up to me and clung to me, which smiled and quietly said: "Thank you." Then Iruka told us how the classes would be held and what we would study. After, there was a small propaganda speech on the theme of the Will of Fire and the greatness of Konoha, followed by a history lesson, which was the same propaganda speech, in which some dates and historical facts with events were inserted. And the last lesson for today is geography, as is clear, it was the same as before, only on the ground and with comparisons: our country is the largest, and the trees are the greenest, and the shinobi are the strongest, and we have the most will. fiery, and in general, the country is the best, and other countries envy us and therefore climb to us with wars. In general, Iruka crucified for a long time, but still finished before the end of the lesson, and in honor of the first day of school, he let everyone go early.
Mito and I were the last to leave the Academy, and I suggested, in honor of the holiday, to visit the Ichiraku Ramen cafe, which we saw on the way to the academy. Walking to the cafe through the park, we saw how nearby, Hinata Hyuga was surrounded by three boys, and when I got close to them, I heard:
- Hey, Hyuuga girl, show us your Byakugan. - one kid said with a mockery.
- Your eyes are terrible! - said another kid.
- You're just a monster. Byakugan monster, ha ha ha. The eldest of the hooligans said with a sneer.
Coming even closer, I called out to Hinata's offenders:
- Hey, punks! She quickly lagged behind the little beauty, and it would be better for you to apologize for your words and get the pick-up from here.
- Who else are you? One of them asked when the hooligans turned to face me. I think I saw him somewhere.
- Oh, I remembered two of you. I was the one who recently threw you on the ground, forcing you to eat dirt for molesting Mito? So, will you apologize or teach you another lesson on how to behave in the presence of beautiful girls? I asked condescendingly.
- There are more of us today. Hit him guys. Get it! - three boys pounced on me.
- Then you also shouted like that, and it did not help you much. Eh, they don't learn anything! - I said when one bully tried to hit me, but I applied phasing and became intangible, so the enemy missed and almost fell to the ground, and before he regained his balance, I knocked him out with a blow to the back of the head. The next two guys wanted to hit me from both sides at the same time, but at the moment of the attack I again became intangible and the hooliganism hit each other, and they did not hold back their strength, which is why they passed out from their blows.
- If children are the flowers of life, then these are clearly weeds. Such small, and already such assholes. - I examined the lying hooligans, and then went up to Hinata, who was still squatting and looked at me with tear-stained eyes.
I sat down next to the girl and said:
- Well, Hinata, don't cry, don't listen to these narrow-minded fools, you are a very beautiful girl, and not a monster. And your eyes are not only very beautiful, but also very useful in your fighting style, so don't be discouraged by their words. When you grow up, you will be able to bring down people like these hooligans in droves, and not only with your clan style, but also with your beauty. - I tried to calm the girl down.
- Thank you ... hmv. - Hinata wiped her tears and got to her feet: - Your name is Naruto-kun, aren't you? - She asked when I also got up and now towered over the girl by a couple of heads.
- Yeah, you can just call it Naruto. So why are you alone, Hinata? I thought that the clan princesses should be accompanied everywhere by dozens of Hugh guards. - I looked around and for a moment used Hoshingan to check for possible shinobi hiding in the bushes, but apart from the spy watching the jinchūriki, there were no adults nearby, but this spy was quite far away, and it was Mito who I had overtaken to get to Hinata faster.
- After class, an escort from the clan was supposed to come for me, but the lesson ended earlier, and I decided not to wait long and go home myself. Hinata replied meekly.
- Yes, exactly, then everything is clear. By the way, Mito and I decided to celebrate the first day of the academy in a cafe nearby. If you want, come with us, I will treat you. There you can wait for the escort. As you may have noticed, little beautiful girls shouldn't walk around the village alone. And if the accompanying person is not there for a long time, then when Mito and I have eaten, we can escort you to the clan quarter. - I suggested, - Come on, agree.
- And I will not disturb you? The girl asked anxiously.
- What?! How can a little beauty prevent you from enjoying your food? It will make the process of saturation with food only better and more aesthetically pleasing. - every time I called her a little beauty, Hinata blushed a little. Princess Hugh was pretty cute, and all the time she acted like a frightened kitten that you want to feel sorry for and pet.
Then Mito, slightly behind me, arrived in time:
- Hey Naruto, where did you run like that, dattebayo? - Asked the red-haired girl, but after examining the lying bodies and standing next to crying Hinata, she added: - And what happened here, dattebayo?
- Here, I explained to the young people that their concepts of beauty are erroneous, otherwise they dared to call this cutie a monster. Mito, do you agree that Hinata has beautiful eyes, each like a full moon shining in the night? I pointed to Hinata, who was embarrassed by such attention.
- Well, yes, she has strange, unusual eyes, but she suits. But why, after your explanation, these guys are lying unconscious, dattebayo? - pointed Mito at the hooligans.
- Well, they realized how deep their delusions were and very much repented, so much that their brain could not stand it, and they passed out, falling into a swoon in these ridiculous positions. - I justified myself.
- Doesn't sound very plausible, dattebayo. Although, if the beginning of your tale is true, then they got what they deserved. Well, since you're done, then let's go to the cafe, or I'm already hungry, dattebayo. - said the girl, and in confirmation of her words, her stomach rumbled.
- Come on, but let's take Hinata with us. - I said, and took the princess Hugh by the arm, starting to lead her to the cafe.
Ichiraku was a small stall where ramen was prepared, which could be eaten right there on one of the five chairs at the counter. We were served by a good-natured cook named Teuchi.
After settling in "Ichiraku", we ordered one portion of standard pork ramen, salad to it, dumplings and green tea for a sample. The ramen itself is thick noodles floating in a very rich broth cooked on bones, and the broth is cooked for a very long time, which makes the taste very rich. From above, various additional ingredients are added to the two main ingredients - shrimp, mussels, pieces of pork or beef, various vegetables and seaweed, as well as slightly undercooked chicken eggs with a still soft yolk.
In a past life, I could not stand borscht and soups, I do not like food floating in water. However, when I was reborn and I had to languish in the orphanage from hunger after training, I became less picky about food, so I still liked the ramen, the noodles were tasty, and I drank all the broth, after which I started making dumplings, here are them I've always loved.
As a result, Mito also tasted the ramen and apparently liked it very much, since she ordered two more large portions, Hinata asked for more salad, and for myself I took another dumpling and one portion of ramen with seafood, in which there was something in honor of which I was and called - Naruto or Narutomaki - a fish roll with a red spiral, steamed and cut into circles.
Narutomaki is a component of some types of ramen, but this roll was originally named after the Naruto Maelstroms, which are located off the coast of the Land of Fire and surround the island where Uzushio used to be - the Village of the Hidden Maelstrom. In this village lived the Uzumaki clan, which was famous for possession of Fuinjutsu - the sealing technique, to this clan my mother and Mito Kushina belonged. Whirlpool Village was destroyed a couple of decades ago, and the surviving members of the Uzumaki clan scattered around the world.
In general, the girls and I sat down to eat ramen, Mito and Hinata began to talk a little, but when I turned to Hinata and asked her something, Princess Hyuga answered me much quieter and blushed a little at the same time. Hinata's escort never showed up, or most likely just didn't find us, so we took the princess through the village to the clan quarter, where the girl was safely handed over to the guards.
After thanking us, Hinata said goodbye and went home.
After Mito and Hinata met, they continued to communicate at the academy, and later they were joined by a couple of girls - Ino and Sakura, one of them was a fighting blonde, and the second was a slightly insecure pink-haired girl who all the time tried to hide her forehead.
I, or my clone of chakra-flesh, accompanied Mito everywhere, and I or he, too, sometimes had to participate in the girls' conversations. At first, Mito was considered the daughter or granddaughter of some high-ranking official of the Land of Fire, who, for the sake of prestige, sent his child to comprehend the craft of a shinobi, and having bribed someone, dragged him to the first year into the elite class, in addition to his blood, he also passed her guard off as just entered a six-year-old. But, Mito and I quickly dispelled this assumption, saying that we are just orphans who lived together in an orphanage and entered the academy together. Especially this theory did not fit the behavior and manners of Mito, which were far from aristocratic.
Later, the girls from Mito's entourage got used to me, so we began to communicate on equal terms. After all, how does a conversation go with women: you listen to what they say, nod, assent and agree with them. Sometimes you express your opinion, then you listen that your opinion is wrong and why exactly, and you agree with each of the points, and then, again you listen to what they tell you and in the right places insert meaningless phrases like: " Wow! "Or" Incredible! What happened next? "
Sitting in class at the academy, I checked almost all of the students using Identity and compared their characteristics with mine. And I can say that the clan ones are two and a half - three times weaker than me, the clanless ones are four - four and a half times weaker. But there were also outstanding personalities, for example, Chоji Akimichi had a little less Stamina than me, Shikamaru Nara's Intelligence and Wisdom were also not far from mine, but Yamanaka Ino, Wisdom was four times less with practically the same Intelligence, like the Nara. Sasuke was only slightly stronger than Mito, whose only training was active games with me.
Sasuke himself was the most ordinary black-haired black-eyed kid of six years old, such in the village a dime a dozen, especially in the Uchiha clan.
However, I had special attention to Sasuke. Now, in the classroom, in addition to studying, I "Analyzed" Sasuke, because I know that he can definitely awaken both the Mangekyo Sharingan and the variation of the Rinnegan - the Rinne Sharingan.
Sasuke, on the other hand, was a little uncomfortable in class. He felt as if he was being examined and scanned with a Sharingan or Byakugan all the time. He looked around for the source of these sensations, but found nothing.
Nothing, nothing, you will suffer a little inconvenience for the sake of my development. The Uchiha themselves, for the development of dojutsu, in general, they cut their friends and relatives, so the price is not high. And the most beautiful thing is that the Uchiha looked around, looked around, looked for something with his gaze, was restless, but could not get away from the audience.
In addition to Uchiha, I was interested in Hinata, as the owner of the Byakugan and the Hyuuga genes. The girl often looked at me, sometimes when she thought that no one was seeing, even with the Byakugan turned on, and at the same time blushed deeply. So I started to look at Hinata with an appraising glance, while using "Analysis" on her.
Hinata noticed a strange feeling from the gaze directed at her. After activating the Byakugan, she checked her surroundings and noticed that a person who she really liked and who she also looked at very often was staring at her. And now, when these strange sensations arise again, she knows for sure that it is a boy who is not indifferent to her looking at her. And, so intently, a person cannot look at someone who he does not like or someone to whom he is indifferent, which means that he also liked her.
In general, the study gradually went on, in addition to knowledge about the shinobi craft, I also received information on the genomes of different clans, then I will also check Nara, he still sleeps almost all the time in class and will not notice how I analyze his genome.
In addition to studying at the Academy, I continued to train on my own on the outskirts of Konoha, and already mastered the creation of the Rasengan with one hand. Rasen Rengan and Odam Rasengan also submitted. So, one day, I added mana to the Rasengan, which stabilized the sphere for a short time, and I was able to throw it, it turned out to be an excellent destructive bomb, though too expensive in terms of energy costs ... at least for now.
The more I created clones, the better I could understand the whole process of creating a technique, so over time I learned to use Shadow Cloning without hand seals, so that in battle it would be possible to confuse the enemy by imperceptibly replacing it with my copy.
I also managed to study in more detail the creation of a clone from chakra-flesh, and I understood the whole process that makes the clone so stable. During the use of the technique, all the available chakra permeates my body, then I add other energies to the technique - prana, psi and reatsu, which first pass through the whole body to the Hearth and from there return to their original places, already in the form of a chakra having the structure of those tissues, through which the original components of this practically chakra-organic tissue passed. And here, mana helps to stabilize and unite the chakra that was originally in the body and the chakra that acquired the structure of the body's tissues, creating a clone chakra-flesh.
As is clear, mana is a very universal energy of the soul, which individually can do a lot, and can also serve to facilitate the stabilization and unification of different types of chakra. And now, I want to develop the transformations of my chakra into Suithon - the Water Release chakra and into Doton - the Earth Release chakra, and with the help of mana and Hoshingan combine them into Mokuton - Wood Release, which can be used to suppress the biju ... given that I have Sister jinchuriki with the strongest biju sealed inside the abdomen, Mokuton will come in handy for me.
And my training on natural chakra transformation began. There were two groups of three clones that trained two different elements. The clones who trained Swithon sat in the shallow water of the river, in front of one clone on a stand stood a small container from which water poured in a trickle. This clone tried to split the trickles of water into two more. The other clone had a slightly different task, in its container there were two holes at once, from where two thin streams of water poured, and the clone had to combine them into one thick stream. The third clone simply lay completely in the water and tried to feel the Water Release and accumulate the Suiton Chakra in itself. When the water in the container ran out, the clones immediately quickly filled it, and continued on, and when they ran out of chakra, the third clone dispersed and transferred its energy to the brothers, and they continued to master the Release of Water.
The clones that trained Doton mastered the elements in a similar way, they were waist-deep in earth and mud, one clone tried to separate a dry piece of land into two halves, the second tried to combine two pieces of dry land, and the third was completely immersed in the ground and also meditated , trying to feel the energy of the earth, and when the first two clones ran out of chakra, he transferred all his chakra to them.
Training with this method progressed very vigorously, at first the clones learned to separate and connect thin streaming streams of water, and then moved on to small rivulets that formed near the river bank. Over time, they moved on to control more and more water volumes. Doton also did not take long to wait, having learned to connect and separate small pieces of dry earth, steel clones, firstly, to increase the size of the pieces, and, secondly, to change the material of these pieces, moving from the softest to harder rocks - from gypsum and pumice to granite and marble. Also, the clones tried to make hard rocks softer by decreasing their density, while soft rocks, on the contrary, were pressed as tightly as possible and made them harder.
While the clones were polishing the skill and control of the elemental chakra. Over time, the training brought more and more significant results, and I was worried that outsiders would not see them, so the clones, while hunting in the forest, tried to find some cave that could be used as a training ground ... Konoha has an internal security organization called ANBU Root, which uses various caves as their bases and moves between them using underground tunnels.
Some cave may be the entrance to the Root base, so I decided to make everything easier and just move my training far beyond Konoha, where I can dig my base, I now somehow own Doton.
To get out of the village unnoticed, I used Teleportation to a spatial beacon, with this beacon I marked the trader's cart that was going from Konoha to the capital of the Land of Fire, so somewhere halfway during a night stop, I moved to the beacon and went to a desolate deserted area so that you can make your training base there. There will still be a place for an emergency evacuation from Konoha. If suddenly me or Mito wants to somehow eliminate in the village, I can quickly escape from the shinobi.
I decided to link up my training base in the Valley of the End, where the last battle took place between Uchiha Madara and Hashirama Senju. Madara wanted to destroy Konoha and even subdued the Nine-Tailed Bijuu for this, but the First Hokage was able to use Wood Release to protect the Hidden Leaf Village. Just because of the explosion of the biju bomb, a huge lake with a waterfall appeared in this area, next to whom Hashirama erected two huge statues of himself and himself and his friend - Uchiha Madara, which first helped him create Konoha, and then tried to destroy it.
Near the lake, the area is relatively deserted, an incredibly dense impenetrable forest grows further, which Hashirama grew during the battle with the Uchiha, and then again there is a desolate dry area, and then again an impenetrable forest. In short, the Valley of the End is not the most favorable place for the movement of merchants, so few people hang around here at all, and most importantly, this valley is just perfect for me as a training ground, because there are just beautiful huge trees grown by Mokuton and soaked in the tree chakra.
In the Valley of the End, I left my teleportation beacon, to which I now move every day for training, and as the training itself, I have the construction of an underground base and its arrangement. I also stopped hunting in the forests of Konoha and started looking for food in the forests near the Valley of the End ... otherwise the Nara clan was already worried about reducing the number of deer that usually live in their territory, but sometimes wandered into neighboring wild areas, where I actually reduced livestock of deer for their food.
Four months later, I dug for myself a rather comfortable underground base, the entrance to which I walled up, so that it was possible to get inside only by teleportation. In an underground cave, I tried to build myself a dwelling ... and it was not very easy, as if I was not an architect, and I never built a house from stone, so I had to master the craft of a bricklayer, though not an ordinary one, but a magic one. With the help of Doton, I learned how to create stone blocks suitable for building a house, and also learned to combine them into one structure ... I had many attempts, mostly I came out with very rough buildings, as if created by prehistoric people, and at the same time these structures were not very stable, for I made them only from stone.
With time and many hours of practice, my buildings became more stable and more beautiful, but still quite rough. Once I have mastered Mokuton, I will be able to grow wood structures, but now I have been working with less flexible, heavier and rougher stones. As a result, I nevertheless built a small stone house in an underground cave, where I left a spatial beacon for emergency teleportation.
Now I am at least sure that in case of escaping from Konoha, I will be able to create a roof over my head, and already when I master Mokuton, the construction of the palace will take several hours ... probably.
Over the past time, I was able to learn how to control a four-meter ball of water, where there were about forty tons of liquid, and I could kick with a splash of Earth Release to raise a wall eight meters high from the ground, and five meters thick and wide. I think it is already possible to try to combine the Water and Earth chakras into the Tree chakra.
Before starting the development of Mokuton, I found the largest trees near the Valley of the Completion, and, together with the clones, sat on them to meditate in order to feel the Release of the Wood.
A little later, on these trees, the clones trained in pairs and tried to create Mokuton, combining Sweaton and Doton. The clones worked together to facilitate the process, and I worked alone, but I had Hoshingan and mana with its stabilizing properties, so in the end it was I who managed to create the Tree chakra and sprout a little acorn plucked in the same forest. It was, nevertheless, albeit small, but a success.
Chakra losses, so far, were about ninety-eight percent, but nothing, Konoha was also not immediately built. Although, knowing the strength of Hashirama, this one could build Konoha in one day, he grew a huge forest here. By the way, Senju became famous as a forest clan, and despite the fact that in the entire history of the clan, only Hashirama mastered Wood Release at a normal level suitable for battle.
Now, having found the balance that allows me to combine the two types of chakra into one more powerful one, I will try to reduce energy losses, as well as do without the help of mana and Hoshingan.
I also began to master Futon - the chakra of the Wind element, the training method for which I did not have to invent from scratch. At first, the clones, using the Wind chakra, tried to cut the leaves from the trees, then, when they succeeded, they tried to cut the waterfall falling next to the statues of Hashirama and Madara with the Wind chakra. Then the clones learned to create as large gusts of wind as possible, and also to compress the air to the state of wind blades.
And when sufficiently large blades of the wind began to come out, easily cutting off thick trees, after thinking, I decided to try to unite the chakra of the elements of Water and Air in Hyoton - in the chakra of Ice Release. I don't know why, but if it works, then let it be. As the saying goes, it is better to have and not need than to need and not have. This time the unification took only two days, after which I got a ten centimeter fragile ice thorn.
Hmm, to master in six years, in six months, three elemental transformations of the chakra, and combine them with each other into Ice and Wood - for many it will sound like nonsense. But if we add that this six-year-old knows how to create shadow clones, it will sound, still crazy, but theoretically possible. Also, this six-year-old should have chunin-like chakra reserves and a high rate of its regeneration, as well as the ability to cope with the fatigue from several dispelled clones. I had all this and was able to.
Each of my shadow clones doubles the mastery of the element, and I usually used about six clones, and as the chakra reserve increased, I also increased the number of clones, now there are a dozen of them. "Healing" helped me not to get a stroke, while dispelling a dozen clones, which were dispelled one at a time within a couple of minutes. As a result, we can say that I spent not six months, but about four years, if you sum up the time of the training clones. Considering that I have a system, a hybrid dojutsu, and genes that give me a predisposition to the Elements, it was very strange if during these "four" years I could not master Swithon, Doton and Futon, and also combine them into Mokuton and Hyoton.
In general, it is the presence in this world of clones capable of transferring experience to the original and thereby accelerating its development that has become one of the main reasons for choosing this world. Other reasons are, firstly, the ability to throw fire, water, stone, lava and other spontaneous balls and not only balls. Secondly, this is a new, amazing, albeit sometimes cruel, whole world, with a special kind of magic, and at the same time it is not the Middle Ages, but civilization is developed enough to have a refrigerator, stove in my apartment, as well as normal modern showers and toilet. Well, and, thirdly, beautiful girls who have not dreamed of a beautiful life partner, but rather a few ... if there is such a desire and opportunity ... and I have them.
Further, I honed the creation and management of the chakra of the main and mixed elements, and a small group of clones tried to add different elemental chakra to the Rasengan. Well, good luck to them and me ... during the day, of course, I was very tired, but I just knew that without these trainings I would not become strong and simply would not survive in this world. I already died once as a magician Leon, I died once as a student Leonid, and I have no desire to die as a Naruto shinobi.
But, as another additional plus of training in the Valley of the Completion was a wonderful view of the sunset, I even sat down and relaxed at this time to admire the beautiful view ... and then I got up and continued training.
