Without further ado
chapter seven beloved readers !
we roll v-v/) :
MIDDLE OF SEALS TRAINING YEAR - WEAPON SHOP
"ten-chan" naruto said entering the shop to find his dear friend sobbing behind the counter
"ten-chan?...what's wrong?"
tenten raised her head and naruto gasped at what he saw
she had a bruised forehead and her left eye was purple due to someone hitting it
"na..naruto-kun…" she wiped her tears and tried to smile
naruto just looked down
"who did this?"
"don't mind it naruto-kun…its okay now…I just fell down our stairs…"
"I asked a question…I expect an answer…" naruto said still looking down with his fist gripping
"m..my dad"
'hmm…its what you feared'
"its because of me isn't it…."
tenten just looked away
"he says you're just trouble….but…I don't know….why?...you seem like a nice boy…what's so bad that he'd have to hurt me for not talking to you agai-"
said man waltzed into the shop suddenly and glared at the boy
"tenten…what did I tell you?"
tenten's eyes started to pool water
'…lets just leave'
"old man…this is the last time I'm coming here…on one condition…please don't hurt her again"
naruto went for the door but a kunai pierced him in the shoulder
he knew it was tenten's dad but decided to leave before losing control
"DAD" tenten cried and wanted to jump over the counter to help naruto but naruto turned to her and motioned her to stop with his uninjured hand
"its okay…he has every right to do so…"
"what do you mean he has the right to?...you're just a kid-"
"tenten…in your room…..NOW"
tenten ran to the back of the store crying when naruto nodded to her
"brat…you will not ruin my daughter's life with your curse…now…LEAVE"
"I will…just promise that if I don't come back again…you wouldn't hurt her"
the old man's eyes started to get wet
"she's my own daughter you monster…do you know how it pierced my heart to hear her say she wanted to see you again?...how it hurt when I beat her so she wouldn't talk to you again?...I'M A FATHER GODDAMN YOU"
"…goodbye sir"
with that naruto left the store
SOME RANDOM PART IN A FARAWAY FOREST
Naruto was trying to concentrate his chakra control on the water but he just couldn't forget what the man said
'how it pierced my heart to hear her say she wanted to see you again?'
'…concentrate…'
'how it hurt when I beat her'
'…concentrate…'
'…gaki…you're losing it…'
'GODDAMN YOU'
'…concentrate…'
red chakra began to emanate from naruto's body and the water started to ripple
'BRAT WAKE UP'
naruto opened his eyes to see his demonic reflection on the water
long claw like fingers and elongated fangs with spikier then usual hair and deeper whisker marks
'shit….'
'c'mon gaki…you'll meet her in the academy again right?...stop beating yourself over it'
'…whatever…'
naruto calmed down after a few minutes and a dive under the cold water and his usual features returned
he came out of the water and after lying on the grass until he was dry, he took out a scroll and unsealed his kodachi, trying to pump more then the usual wind chakra into it
'…you're gonna break it kid…'
'…I will if you ruin my concentration'
'and when you do…you'll have lost her last memento'
with that said, naruto stopped concentrating and re-sealed the much loved short sword and headed home
'no training today?'
'…'
YAMANAKA FLOWER SHOP
Naruto entered the store to see ino cleaning the windows
'ah shit…I was hoping you'd have an orgy one day…'
"ino-san"
ino turned around to see naruto clothed in black attire. Black jacket, black pants, even black sandals!
"naruto-kun?" ino was taken back a bit by the san suffix
"listen to your parents and cut all connection with me…school, street, anywhere…pretend we've never met"
"how did you know?...more importantly…why?" ino asked with a sad tone
she had grown attached to how naruto came to ask her for tips on how to take care of flowers and it would be boring without him around for her
"goodbye" with that said, he left a sad and on the verge of crying ino to herself
"..sob…baka naruto..sob…"
NARUTO'S HOUSE'S ROOFTOP
'….aren't we a heartbreaker…'
'suddup…'
'…I'm sorry…if it wasn't for m-'
' I said shut up…its not your fault you have so many haters…you were controlled…neither is it my fault for getting chosen as the vessel…my dad was the yondaime and he'd hate to put this burden on anyone other then his son'
'…damn…ever told you how proud I get of you sometimes?'
'….sigh….i'm gonna go for a run…'
'..well…I'mma sleep a little..'
naruto closed his eyes and concentrated a little
suddenly, seals appeared out of nowhere on his arms and legs and head and just as quickly as they appeared, they went away
'gotta thank ero-sennin for these seals…those papers were getting annoying'
with that he took a leap from the rooftop and disappeared into the night
NEXT DAY – ACADEMY
Naruto entered his classroom in his usual baggy-orange attire with a pair of goggles that made him say 'kill me I'm here you colorblind shinobi'
he took his seat and noticed ino had taken his word and was ignoring him
he also went looking for tenten during recess and found her hanging out with two boys, neji and a weird kid with a bowl haircut and bushy brows
'satisfied?'
'…quite…'
'weren't you gonna tell ayame as well…or hinata?'
'…meh…doesn't matter even if she knows….nothing will change…and hinata…she doesn't even approach me so no problem'
'….well…I have some good news…'
'what?'
'the tenketsu are combined enough for you to freely use my chakra if you can handle it'
'finally…we'll start immediately'
'and jiraya-sama?'
'we'll train the fire jutsu during weekends man…no need to rush it'
FLASHBACK END…FOR NOW
"so….everyone knew about this but me?" sarutobi said with a hint of anger
"what?...you're knowing the full story now so be grateful I'm skipping my training, talking here"
"WHY YOU LITTLE-"
"FLASHBACK RECOVERY NO JUTSU"
FLASHBACK CONTINUE…DUE TO USER'S FORCE OF COMMAND
Naruto's day went through its usual routine afterwards
failing at everything
sleeping through class with shikamaru
exchanging snacks with chouji
playing catch with kiba
trying to annoy sasuke…which he failed at
he hated this guy the most
everything seemed to go right for the last of uchiha while his life…the son of the fourth was in utter SHIT
he didn't show it but he really hated this guy and wanted to excel a few times but decided against it and guarded his secret
WEEKEND
"okay naruto, don't forget to train your sealing power by trying to seal bigger things and don't forget to train pumping more chakra into rasengan…and naruto…..knowledge is power" jiraya said, trying to look like a real sage
"define knowledge" naruto asked, packing his scrolls which he used to train
"knowledge….well….err…"
"define women"
"CREATURES OF UTTER STUPIDITY AND BEAUTY MOTHAFUCKAH" he said with vigor
he had picked the catchphrase after naruto used it a few times, when he failed at a jutsu
"…I hope you see the error of your ways one day"
"its been 40 years and I haven't seen anything other then women's as-"
naruto shunshined out of there, eager to learn firestyle
HIS USUAL TRAINING FIELD
Naruto appeared in the training field and unsealed a few firestyle books he had kept to himself for this day
he looked over the fireball jutsu and decided to begin from here
'okay…lets do this'
'try drawing my chakra into your lungs and as its about to come out of your mouth, try commanding the chakra to ignite'
naruto did as was told and was blown away from the sheer force of the fire pressure coming out of his mouth
it created a fireball that could easily consume the hokage tower
'gaki…my chakra is a bit too dense it seems…try putting some of your chakra in it…and since wind fuels fire, try to balance it and don't go destroying the place okay?'
'this'll take some times'
FLASHBACK END…FOR REAL
"and from then until recently, I've been training my ass off"
"I see…actually I don't.
why do you wanna keep it a secret?"
naruto looked at the ceiling for a few moments
"say…if a fresh-out-of-they-academy vessel suddenly turned out to be stronger then a jounin…wouldn't they say I'm being controlled?...this village is too stupid for comfort and you know it….well…you freaking should since this village even has a fucking civilian council…I mean what the fuck man?
shouldn't you be controlling them and not vice versa?"
"sigh….its complicated naruto"
"no its fucking not
you should just read more
the nidaime said that if the civilian council disagrees on the hokage's idea and if the hokage insists and they do not give in, they will have to challenge the hokage and defeat him fair and square"
sarutobi's eyes turned as big as odama rasengan
"that's restricted knowledge…how do you know?"
"are you fucking kidding me?
the library of course"
sarutobi made a mental note to self to increase security in the library
"tell ya what…I'll do you a favor if you tell kakashi to accept me without tomorrow's so called teamwork test"
"how do you…"
"I read about what his dad did and what he believed in afterwards…simple psychology"
"okay….and my favor?"
"I know you can't use kage bunshin due to your age and how it drains a normal humans chakra too much…so try giving the paperwork to the civilian and just look over the military or politic papers"
sarutobi banged his head on the table hard enough to make a crack
"thank you…thank you so much naruto…consider tomorrow's test passed my dearest grandson"
"okay….see ya later" and naruto shunshined a sobbing in happiness sarutobi to himself….which stopped when he remembered he was reading icha-icha
NEXT DAY – WHERE SAKURA AND SASUKE WERE TO HAVE THEIR TESTS
Naruto sat on a tree branch, eating his second bowl of quick-ramen when kakashi appeared next to him
"hello naruto" he said with a smile at his favorite student
"yo….aren't you late?
they've been waiting since early morning…its 11 AM now"
"oh I was just lost on the road of life"
"well…did the kage tell you?"
"yes…and its strange how yo-"
"cut the crap man…I have a gift since you were kind enough to let me pass"
naruto took out an autographed icha-icha book, with brass title
kakashi almost had a seizure
"th…the original…uncut…uncensored icha-icha volume three"
'thanks jiraya…wait…scratch that
you molested my naruko-clone for this'
he gave the book to kakashi and kakashi kissed the back of his hand before taking it
"god bless you….GODFATHER"
"well…you come to me on my test day and offer me a free pass…what kind of a…FUCK THIS JUST GO ALREADY AND GIVE ME A SHOW MAN!" naruto shouted, hating himself for playing a dialogue of his favorite movie, the NINJA-FATHER
(author's note : I hit my forehead so hard when I wrote ninja-father it still hurts)
with that, kakashi went to the training field and naruto watched in delight as how they failed to get the single bell
'what a bunch of idiots…just work together a bit and show him you can work with each other in dire situations'
'or we could go see kaori-tama today….its Saturday you know'
naruto pumped kyuubi's chakra into his feet and destroyed the branch from the force of shunshin
'curse you jiraya…your pervertedness is rubbing off on me'
HOTSPRINGS COUNTRY
"ACHOO"
"EEEEEEEEK
SOMEONE'S PEEKING ON US"
the origin of the sneeze disappeared in a shunshin and cursed the one talking behind his back in a temple
"….and please do your best to curse him after you recurse the mothafucka talking behind my back Buddha-sama"
And chapter seven comes to a close
I'm gonna have naruto show off a little of his arsenal in the road to wave next time so look forward to it
PEACE OUT dv-vb
