I do not own Boruto: Naruto the next generation or D Gray Man.
Enjoy!
In the Yamanaka Clan, Inojin began flicking through the household books looking for something.
"What are you looking for Inojin?" Said his mother, Ino.
"Kaa-san, do we have any books on the Bookman clan?" Said Inojin much to the woman's surprise. "I have a classmate who is apparently the Heir to the Clan. I was wondering why I don't know anything about it"
Plus, he thought he had a play date with all the Clan heirs growing up so why didn't he remember meeting Lavi before the academy.
"You haven't heard of them because they weren't present through the war" said a voice, they turned to find his Father, Sai.
"Tou-san" said Inojin.
"Husband" said Ino.
"The Bookman clan moved in just months after the fourth world war ended" said Sai. "They said, the war wipped out all but two members out"
"They said?" Said Inojin.
"We trusted their word because everything was such a mess back than and a lot of scouts had died" said Sai. "I first thought they came from Suna but the Fifth, has never heard of them." Before he said. "But from the Ninja from years ago who managed to get into that house before the barrier was put up, he reported they had an extensive collection of books."
"Books?" Said Ino.
"Very important looking books" said Sai. "Several grades higher than the books allowed in the library's. I won't be surprised if there are several books that should be illegal in there. But despite that, they really don't do anything. The old man sells trinkets when he's not reading and shows up to fill the clan seat at a council meeting. Apart from their books, they are every sense of the word a civilian family." But than he said. "But still you can't help but think their value is much higher than what their letting on. Who knows what knowledge they have and if it become something important in the future"
That guys clan is so mysterious...thought Inojin, to think his father hadn't discovered everything from that clan.
"However," said Sai. "I heard fro. the Hokage office that your sensei is waiting for the class to do a writing exam before he tries talking to the current Head of the Bookman clan about testing his grandsons IQ. The man called Lavi a walking encolopedia."
His teacher was curious as well to see what was inside Lavi head.
Inojin wondered if he should leave the guy alone, completely unaware his teacher had just almost killed three students a few seconds before.
#Scene Change, a day later#
So their actively hunting for something now?
Lavi looked at the globe to see Boruto, Shikadai and Mitsuki going hunting for people who have gone crazy.
They watched Boruto try to figure out his power, only to mistaken it for the byakugan.
Although Boruto drawing of what he saw was something to be desired.
This old man, can even see into the Hyuga grounds. Thought Lavi, as he dusted the books and watched Boruto enter the Hyuga grounds with his family.
It was hard to watch Boruto get beat by own granddad who hammered into him, he did not have his mother's bloodline.
The resume of hunting for evil spirits was magical, compared to seeing that.
When Lavi returned to school, he saw their sensei was in high spirits and Boruto and the others were willing to listen to the man.
It was probably because of the near death experience, that shut them up.
"You'll all be doing work experience" said their teacher making them all blink owlishly. "Our world is filled with people who do jobs to keep the world running. You'll be tasked with spending a week at any job of your choosing"
Well, it looks like I'm going to spend a full week with Panda. thought Lavi, not looking forward to it.
"Lavi, what are you going to do for Week?" said Inojin much to his surprise.
"I'll go work with Panda" said Lavi.
"Panda?" Said Inojin.
"Oh, that's the name I call my grandfather" said Lavi. "Because at times he looks like a giant angry Panda"
Inojin sweat dropped along with those who heard.
The following day wasn't fun, because he accompanied the old man to his stall where he sold nicknacks that backpacked of, of the finally fight to end the Four World War.
"Get your Nine tail plushies here! Get your Hokage plush doll as well!" Yelled Bookman.
"Panda...could you be anymore shameless?" He said, not knowing he said it out loud.
Bookman turned to him while holding his costumer smile in a very low and scary tone. "This is what puts food on the table brat. So unless you want to have a kick ass outfit when you graduate shut up and be shameless"
Kick ass outfit?
Suddenly Lavi yelled. "Get your Sasuke Uchiha plush toy here, it's only 900 yen! Great for the little ones!"
You could swear the whole village could hear him.
"We all love our Hokage right?" He yelled. "Show you love and adoration for him with this beautiful Naruto Uzamaki bottled water! It's recyclable so it's good for the environment!"
People began to come.
While Shikamaru Nara who happened to be walking to the Hokage office couldn't believe his eyes.
A clan who did nothing in the war was profitting-
"Get your Commander of the Fourth War plushie right here!" Yelled Lavi showing a Shikamaru Nara plushy with a very large head and no legs, he squeezed it and it spoke in Shikamaru voice. "The person best suited to be Naruto adviser is me"
If Shikamaru had a ciggerate in his mouth, he would have dropped it.
Where did they get that recording!?
He said that years ago when he was figuring out fate was leading him to be the best strategist in Konoha.
Shikamaru brought the doll and for some reason the price was higher regarding him, a thousand yen higher.
He also got a plush of Naruto as well and went to the tower with both toys.
Naruto blinked owlishly when the plush was put in front of him and than Shikamaru squeezed it.
A young Naruto voice before his voice got deeper yelled. "I'm going to be Hokage! You better believe it!"
Naruto was shocked.
Shikamaru played his doll and Naruto stared.
"Got this from the Bookman clan" said Shikamaru. "Either they have been watching us for years without us knowing it, or they know somebody who has been. Either way the Bookman Clan is not a civilian family. It's possible that they have a spy network and it could bigger than Danzo which allows them to collect so much information"
As expected of Konoha best strategist, he could tell the Bookman clan could not have gotten such recordings by normal means.
Either that clan was lying about their abilitys or they got extremely lucky twice and miraculously, several well trained ninjas couldn't pick up the chakra of a civilian in their own clan compound.
Naruto remembered what his sons teacher said about this Lavi child, the teacher said he was the worst he had ever seen in terms of phyiscal performance, the child may fail if he doesn't get better, the written test could only save him so much.
He himself, had only met the current Head of the Bookman clan a handful of times and something about the old man's eyes sent chills down Kurama spine like the old man know more than enough dangerous secrets to cause another war.
There really were some secrets that were never supposed to be spoken.
Like the existence of Nue and it's pocket demension.
Just because Lavi wasn't phyiscally there doesn't mean the globe couldn't track them into it.
Lavi watched Boruto latest crazy advanture after watching the Hokage Vs Gaara fight.
It was like going from Rambo to normal kids trying to beat a normal adult.
Boruto sheltered upbringing was clearly doing him no favours, if Mitsuki wasn't there, the child would have died many times over.
But like his father, he talked the class president out of it and they escaped using his mysterious eye.
Why is their week work experience, more exciting then mine? Thought Levi, what was this main character bs?
The three got out but the class president was taken away peacefully because she hadn't actually killed anyone, they just had to make sure she wasn't a serious threat anymore.
It's going to be awkward looking the class president in the eye if I see her. Lavi thought, while taking off his clothes as he was going to bed.
One of the advantages of being trained as a ninja is that when you take your shirt off, you look good with your shirt off.
One of the main reasons he wanted to be a Ninja.
He went to bed and slept, when he woke up, he had breakfast before walking out the door for another back breaking day.
He entered the outside classroom and was immediately greeted with a wall climbing, with your feet excerise.
The important Clan heirs did it as if they were breathing, it would piss any normal person off knowing the resources the kids were exposed to before going into the academy.
He wasn't surprised that Benki didn't make it up, the heavily sheltered boy had wobbled to a lesser decree on all the phyiscal tests.
When the boy acted like failing one test was the end of the world, when Lavi had failed every phyiscal test he had been handed, his smile became rather fixed.
It got worse when Benki revealed he didn't believe Iwabee could pass this year and both of them would have to repeat with the guy not that far away.
He had never seen a bigger fuck up.
But than Lavi realised he would fail the year if he didn't know how to rock climb, since he failed every other phyiscal test.
Shit.
This was bad.
Lavi bombed when the teacher called him up and didn't get further than Benki.
So like Benki when the class was over Lavi attempted to rock climb, in his head he know what to do to get the needed effect but his body wouldnt listen.
Hang on.
His eyepatch was directing his Chakra to it which meant the flow was completely different than what was in the text book.
In his mind, he began to envision what his Chakra system should look like and not what was in the book.
And than he tried directing the large arc to his feet.
All this didn't happen in seconds, his thought process lasted several hours.
He was just staring at the wall making those walking by think he was a massive idiot.
He sat down and mediated, the chakra that got free from his eyepatch was still too large, he needed a small percentage of it or he would destroy the rock and his feet.
He went home at 1 in the morning and still mediated.
It was not enough just knowing, his body had to learn subconsciously.
Bookman just sipped his tea while he watched.
It looks like the kid was finally trying to train his body to handle his Chakra.
#A few days Later#
Lavi looked around to find Iwabee and Benki wasn't here, but he know they would do it later, those two couldn't fail.
The teacher began to call their names up one by one.
Of course the class superstars crushed it, how could they not when they learned this year's ago?
The others wobbled but stayed firm as they claimed.
"Lavi Bookman" said their teacher, he got up and the teacher realised he had failed every phyiscal exam.
He prepared to fail this child on the spot.
Lavi walked to the wall and didn't stop, he was grinned like an idiot as he casually walked up the rock like he was strolling on flat land.
Everybody was surprised, his teacher was shocked.
And than Lavi got to the top, slid down, making sure to do flips on his way down as if he was small child having fun, before landing on the floor.
The teacher was stunned.
"That was amazing, Lavi" said the teacher.
Lavi grinned and said. "I just figured out what I was doing wrong that's all. You may all start showering me with compliments because I am your King!"
Most of them sweat dropped.
"Lavi, sit down" said their teacher, not amused.
Lavi sat down.
Iwabee and Benki never showed up for the test time but Lavi was too busy celebrating the fact he was still in the class and hadn't failed, to care what was going on with those two.
He called his phone.
"Hey, Panda let's go out tonight. I passed. I haven't been dropped out from the class" he said.
The man hung up.
Lavi pursed his lips.
Stingy Panda.
And scene!
