Chapter 2: Scroll of Seals
Posted 3-28-21
I'm keeping most of the original note in here below, obviously I'm not working on chapter 6 still, since as mentioned last chapter I'm rewriting this.
Okay first off I'd just like to say chapters 2-4 are very short, 5 is decently long, and I'm still working on 6, so please be patient. Some chapters just can't be decent sized, and some just happen to be very long. Don't forget to review the story, with any compliments or complaints about it so far.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, or anything dealing with Naruto.
"Hokage-sama!" Came the voice of Mizuki. "Naruto has stolen the Scroll of Sealing, we need to kill him before he can become a trouble to the village."
"Is that so?" The Hokage asked, and when Mizuki nodded he said "Fine, call all the Jonin and Chunin you can and tell them to come here, and the ones that won't make my announcement, tell them I want Naruto captured ALIVE and brought back to me." The fact that Mizuki requested the blonde's death was something he'd discuss later, but right now finding Naruto, and getting this explained took priority.
"Yes Hokage-sama," Mizuki said then disappeared in a body flicker.
…
(With Naruto)
'So if I could just retrieve this scroll and get it here I become Chunin, will I become Jonin if I get a few down?' Naruto asked himself in thought.
Naruto created Shadow Clones and told them to learn a jutsu from the scroll. The real Naruto came across a jutsu named "Rasengan" which interested him, not because it was A ranked, but because it explained what it did, but now how to do it, and also because it was created by the 4th Hokage, his idol. He didn't let it bother him that he couldn't learn it, and decided to ask the old man about it later.
After 2 hours Naruto learned 1 S rank jutsu. It took multiple clones, and multiple fails, but this one stood out to him. That's when Iruka came and yelled "NARUTO"
Naruto with a smirk on his face asked "So am I Chunin now?" He couldn't believe he was finally progressing.
Iruka was mad originally, he expected this to just be another one of Naruto's pranks. He knew the child wouldn't actually do actual harm intentionally to the village, but sometimes he couldn't differentiate what was harmful and what wasn't. "Huh? What do you mean? Who told you that?" Iruka asked confused
"Mizuki-sensei! He told me if I could retrieve this scroll and bring it here I would automatically become Chunin!" There was a sense of pride in this.
Iruka was shocked at that and said "That's not true Naru…" He got cut off when kunai came rushing at them. He then pushed Naruto out of the way and took the kunai to his back.
"Iruka why are you protecting that demon? He stole the scroll of Seals!" came Mizuki.
"Don't make me laugh, you set Naruto up!" Iruka claimed in pain, realizing how bad the situation was.
"So what? After I kill him I'll become a hero in this village, and you should help me. He did kill your parents after all" Mizuki was sure Iruka would join him, and if by some miracle he didn't and sided with the Kyuubi, he'd just be killed as well.
"He didn't, it was the nine-tailed fox," Iruka said, defending Naruto.
While it was true Iruka had issues with Naruto originally, he knew Naruto wasn't the demon fox, he let his pain subside throughout the years, and found that Naruto was an amazing character.
"Hey Naruto, do you know why everyone in this village hates you?" Mizuki asked, seeing his chance to enrage the pest.
"No Mizuki don't, it's against Konoha law" Iruka shouted, but couldn't do much, because of the pain.
"The village hates you because you are the…" Mizuki got cut off by iruka shouting no. "It's because you are the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox"
Naruto froze in shock then heard Iruka shout "Naruto run and no matter what don't stop" Naruto then started running in tears. A lot of thoughts running through his mind. Was he the Kyuubi? Is this why the villagers hated him?
…
(After the chase)
Naruto was behind a tree when he heard Iruka and Mizuki talking. Still in tears.
"Why are you helping the demon?" Mizuki asked "I thought you hated that damn demon, or did you forget, it killed your parents?"
"Yeah I do" Iruka replied "and I will never forgive the fox for what it did."
Naruto started tearing up and thought to himself 'So it's true… Even Iruka-sensei sees me as a demon.' This confirmed it, why did he never know this before?
"But Naruto is no demon," Iruka continued. This sent shivers down Naruto's spine.
"Fine then, I was going to deal with you later, but I guess that changed" Mizuki said then threw kunai at Iruka, but Naruto deflected them.
"If you EVER touch my sensei again" Naruto said in anger "I'LL KILL YOU" He was surrounded in an orange cloak, creating 1000 shadow clones with killing intent much larger than either Iruka, or Mizuka had ever felt before.
"Na… Naruto?" Iruka asked in shock
Naruto then beat Mizuki to a pulp ignoring his screams. No mercy.
"Sorry about that, Iruka-sensei," Naruto said scratching the back of his head with a sheepish grin.
"Naruto that's fine, but I must take you to the Hokage to explain all that happened and to return the scroll of seals." This wasn't something that would go smoothly.
"Okay" Naruto said with a smile "I needed to talk to the old man about something anyways"
…...
(At the Hokages office)
Iruka explained all that happened and then the Hokage dismissed him saying that he needed to talk to Naruto alone.
"So Naruto" The Hokage said kindly "How many jutsu did you learn from the scroll? And what were they named and ranked?"
"Only 1 Jiji, it was something called Into The Shadows, and it was S ranked."
The Hokage nearly fainted at learning a 12 year old learned an S ranked jutsu in 2 hours, even if this 12 year old was naruto. It amazed him more that it was Into the Shadows in which only one person ever used, the inventor, and that person couldn't even master it, according to the will left by him. After recovering from the shock then said "Well naruto I have some good news for you, this will be put as a B ranked mission on your info card, and you will receive a B rank pay of 15,000 ro for catching a traiter" Naruto got shocked for a few moments thinking of what he could do with that kind of money then decided to talk "Thank you old man soo much!" He then remembered what he saw on the scroll "Uhm I have a question."
"Ask away Naruto-kun"
"Uhm there's one jutsu called the rasengan on the scroll of seals, but it doesn't tell you how to use it, and I'd like to know how, because it was invented by the 4th Hokage"
The Hokage was shocked by the question then answered "I'll have someone teach it to you if I feel you are ready. If there's nothing else of importance let me tell you who you'll be teamed with. It'll be Uchiha Sasuke, and Haruno Sakura, led by Hatake Kakashi. For what you did today I'm giving you 2 presents the first is this bingo book which I want you to memorize with Shadow clones, and these Chakra weights that I want you to start wearing after you ask Kakashi how they work" Hokage said "Now go home and sleep, you have a big day tomorrow"

Okay readers I'd just like to tell you I'm going to write down here how much spending money Naruto has every time something comes up where he spends or gains money. D ranks won't be added because I'll count that for his normal living stuff.
Here's the pay grade for each mission:
D rank: 100- 1000 ryo
C rank: 1000- 5000 ryo
B:rank:: 5000-20000 ryo
A rank: 20000-1000000 ryo
S rank: 1000000+ ryo
So Naruto now has 15,000
