Hello Once again, I am back with the next chapter of this story. For a better idea of what Naruto looks like, you can look up pictures of the wrestler Kane (2012) with a little more alteration. Other than that, I am not going to go into any specifics as I did last chapter, therefore, here we go.
Chapter 1:Feed The Wrath
An extremely loud beeping resounded throughout an apartment complex, an alarm clock's time reading seven 'o clock. A string of curses also rung in the air before a Dao sword swung downwards, slicing through the alarm clock and stopping the continues beeps. "Fucking alarm clock." A voice snarled as Naruto Uzumaki sat up in his bed, rubbing his face tiredly. It had been two days since he had been 'Reborn' from the religion of Jashin. In that time, Naruto had stayed inside of his apartment, allowing his body to adapt to both the feeling of once again being above ground, as well as the changes that Jashin began putting it through in order to bring it to par for his devotion.
He had grown taller in height, easily reaching that of his academy Sensei, Iruka Umino, give or take a few inches. He had grown in muscle mass, to that of being perfect for his body build, instead of that of a body builder. His whisker marks, which had been a side effect of Kyuubi's presence, had faded slightly. And his blond hair, which was now longer, now held just a few streaks of white through it. Sighing, Naruto cracked his neck as he finally forced himself to crawl out of bed as the rays of lights shined in through his window.
Looking around, Naruto walked to his dresser where an outfit he had made the previous day sat, waiting to be worn. "A lot better than that fucking orange jumpsuit." The blond cursed hatefully as he picked up the piles of clothes, walking back to his bed before beginning to pull the skintight black pants up, pulling them on with ease. Decorated around the pants were red stitchings, Naruto having ripped the pants purposely multiple times. The stitches sat on places where a corpse would be cut open for an exam. Sitting on the lower part of the right pants leg was the imprinted vision of a red and yellow flame.
Throwing the shirt he had slept in away with a disdainful glance, he proceeded with pulling on a skin tight black shirt. The shirt, similar to the pants, held red stitchings all around it, again, where a corpse would be cut open when examed. In the middle of the chest covering the stitches, was Jashin's Signature symbol, an upside down triangle within a circle
Following the shirt, Naruto pulled on a pair of black elbow bracers, resembling elbow pads, but harder to be used a weapons. On his hands, Naruto slid on a pair of black leather gloves that held silver spikes on the knuckles. After this, Naruto donned a pair of black combat boots that held rubber soles, so no one would be able to hear his approach to them. With a sigh, Naruto reached to his side, picking up a roll of black ACE bandages, which he used to wrap around his head, hiding his blinding blond hair from view. Standing to his full height as he picked up his Dao Sword(s), which was sheathed in black leather, Naruto silently walked towards his dresser once again, this time to pick up a mask.
The mask was made of a stunning maroon leather which held cracks running all throughout it. Placing the molded mask onto face, buckling the straps behind his head to where they blended into his ACE bandages. Releasing a slight chuckle at his intimidating appearance, Naruto picked a second mask up from his dresser, quickly sliding it onto his face. The mask was made completely out of a silver metal, though his face was comforted by the leather underneath. Over his mouth resided four bars that allowed him to breath with ease. Covering his eyes, and completely keeping them from view were two black, shade like lenses that reflected everything that came into his line of sight. Residing in the middle of his forehead, just by the lenses, was the signature symbol of Jashin.
Nodding in approval of his new clothes, Naruto slipped his sheathed Dao over his shoulder, adjusting it to where it was comfortable for him. Picking up his Leaf Hiatate, Naruto snarled in disgusts as he tied the black cloth around his neck. Turning from his image, Naruto left his apartment, jumping from the balcony of the building to the streets below, drawing more than a couple of screams as people took in his strange attire. Once again standing to his full height, Naruto began walking forwards to the Academy for his team assignment.
Of course, even in his newly disguised form, it didn't take the Jashin follower long to run into an elderly man whom held a dark brown walking stick. The elder man was a retired Konoha Ninja, and one of the more vocal Naruto Haters, having tried his attempt on Naruto's life five times over the years. As the blond haired young man came to a stop to glare behind his lenses, the old man took Naruto's appearance in. "You know, back in my days as a ninja," The man began, Naruto rolling his eyes angrily as he fought the urge to release a string of curses upon the man, "We didn't need outfits like this, just our knowledge of the Ninja Arts and our Headbands." At this point, the retired man raised his walking stick to poke Naruto in his chest. "But apparently, a Ninja Like You-"
In one quick movement, so fast that those who had blinked were at a complete loss for words, Naruto gripped the walking stick, yanking it out of the man's hand before spinning, bringing it down across the older man's back where it snapped in half, the man falling to the ground in pain. "It would be wise for a ninja like you," Naruto spoke, his mask giving his voice a disguised metallic fill, "To not anger someone younger, and stronger, than you are." With that, Naruto walked across the man's back, continuing on his path to the Ninja Academy, Civilians stopping in their tracks to help the man back up, something that had never even considered when their roles had been reversed.
Finally reaching the academy, Naruto opened the door, not even bothering to take the time to knock, drawing his classes' attention to him. Allowing his hidden eyes to land on his Academy Teacher, Naruto spoke in his disguised voice, "Iruka Umino?" The scarred man nodded as he glanced to the boots that Naruto wore, slightly put off at the fact that he hadn't heard such heavy footwear approaching.
"Hai, that's me. You must be the person who will replace... Naruto... That Hokage-Sama told me about? Am I correct?" The man questioned as Naruto began pulling on his right glove imposingly before nodding. "Well, why don't you introduce yourself?"
"My name is Kane." Naruto spoke, without any emotion in his voice, once again pulling on his glove.
"Right... Why don't you take... Naruto's... seat next to Kiba and Shino? We don't have much more time, and I have to announce the team squadrons." Nodding as he walked up the stairs to his seat as Iruka began listing off the team squadrons. Staring at those around him, Naruto felt a headache creeping upon him. Why did he have to work with Konoha Scum? He should have left the village when he had his chance. "And Team Eight will be consisting of: Shino Aburame, Hinata Hyuuga, and... Kane? Your Sensei is Kurenai Yuhi. I just want you all to know how much of an honor it has been to teach you all... Good Luck." With those words, Iruka had left the room, leaving the kids to wait for their Jounin Sensei.
Within minutes, the door of the academy opened, revealing a raven haired beauty with crimson red eyes. She wore a suit that appeared to be wrapped around her body with bandages, with a single red sleeve coming down her right arm. The woman wore a pair of normal blue shinobi sandals. "Team Eight, I'm your new Jounin Sensei. Follow me to our training grounds." Spinning on her heels, the woman began leaving the giant room, her genin team standing to follow behind her, Naruto taking the time to once again adjust his Dao strap.
~Training Ground Eight~
Kurenai eyed the team in front of her with a frown. In front of her sat Shino Aburame, a silent, almost emotionless child from the Aburame Clan, whom were all known for their coldness. Hinata Hyuuga, a girl that she had known for quite a few years. While she had already been scarred by the treatment of her father, hell for the whole Hyuuga Clan for that matter, the Naruto Funeral had deeply affected her. Even now she could see the girl pulling away from reality, to a better time when the boy live, which had been just days ago. And this brought her to the mysterious known only as 'Kane'.
There were no records of the boy within Konoha. No one had ever seen the kid, hadn't even heard his name until the day before. But here he sat, the black lenses that sat within his mask reflecting her image as he, no doubt, glared at her. Finally opening her mouth, the red eyed woman spoke, "Today, we are going to introduce ourselves, so that we may build upon the trust we put out today to form a relationship of comrades, and possibly even, friendship. I will begin to give an example. My name is Kurenai Yuhi. My Likes Include Dango, My Friend Anko, and now this team. My Dislikes include rapists, sexists, arrogant people, greedy people, so on and so fourth. My Hobbies Include perfecting my genjutsu. My Dreams for the future are to ready you for the harsh world of a Shinobi. Now you go, starting with Shino."
"... My name is Shino Aburame. My likes are my clan, my Chakra Insects, Hinata, and my deceased Comrade, Naruto. My dislikes are those who think unkindly of my clan and our insects. My hobbies include collecting insects for my hive. Dreams of the future is to become my clans leader, and build a Hive bigger than any Aburame that came before me..."
"Good, now Hinata, it's your turn."
"H-Hai, S-Sensei. My name I-Is Hinata H-Hyuuga. M-My likes are Y-you Sensei, S-Shino, and N-Naruto-Kun... My dislikes a-are my f-father a-and the l-line that separates the M-Main and B-Brach Hyuugas. H-Hobbies are t-training t-to better m-myself. My d-dream for the f-future is to u-unite the H-Hyuuga c-clan."
"Very good, Hinata. Now you... Kane." The boy's attention turned to her slowly, surely having been tuning most of the conversation out until this point.
"My name is Kane, I wield no last name. I like Nothing except Lord Jashin." Naruto responded in his metallic voice. "I Dislike This Fucking Village, The Fucking Villagers, and People who stutter continuously, among other things. My only hobby is the worship of Lord Jashin. Dreams for the future? To bring Jashin's reign of wrath down upon this Earth, to serve as his Horseman and Acolyte forever." with these words, Naruto began fidgeting, the want to fight, to kill, coursing throughout him.
"Right... If I may ask, who is 'Jashin'?" Kurenai questioned the child.
"Lord Jashin is the Lord Of Slaughter, bringer of war, wrath, violence, hatred, and above all else, pain. He is the being who, with the help of his followers, will rise to over throw this retched world of disgusting morals."
"Y-You worship o-one other t-than K-Kami?" Hinata questioned, drawing Naruto's hidden glare upon her as the stutter began working upon his nerves.
"Yes, Lord Jashin, didn't I just make it fucking abundantly clear? Do you have a fucking problem with it, Hyuuga?" Hinata recoiled at the foul language of the imposing figure as he stood to his full height, which towered far over herself.
"No, that's enough." Kurenai spoke with authority as Naruto's fingers began dancing, anticipating a fight. "It's been a long day, you all must be exhausted. Go home and rest, tomorrow you will take my test which will determine rather you will remain on my team, or be sent back to the academy. Be at this training ground by Seven tomorrow morning." With that, the woman disappeared via sunshin, leaving the newly formed team eight behind.
Looking from the corners of his eyes, out of his mask, at his teammates, Naruto snarled, drawing their attention. "Be here tomorrow, and remember, no matter what she says, it's all about teamwork. It always is with Konoha... Don't make me fail, I won't be denied the right sacrifice in the name of Jashin because of Mother Fuckers like you." With this, Naruto, like his sensei, was gone.
"... I don't like our teammate..." Shino stated bluntly to Hinata, completely oblivious to the fact that it was the same person he had said he liked in his introduction.
~Naruto~
Walking dangerously down the streets of Konohagakure, Naruto glared at all that passed him from behind his lenses. Stopping, he glanced over his shoulder, finding the figure of the old man, whom he had assaulted earlier, glaring at him. "Do we have a fucking problem?" Naruto questioned as he turned to the man, the civilians backing away from the duo.
"You should bite that tongue of yours in front of your betters boy. I went through the last two shinobi wars, I've seen it all, done it all. What have you done? What have you seen?" The man questioned as Naruto's anger began to boil.
"More than you ever have." Was the simple response, forcing a laugh from the man. A smirk donning his features behind his mask, Naruto lashed out with a kick, breaking the legs of the chair that the man sat on, for the second time that day sending him to the ground. "This time, I would stay down you old bitch." As Naruto turned away from the man, the retired ninja released a string of curses upon Naruto.
"I'm going to bring you up in the next council meeting!" The man called, stopping Naruto in his tracks. "I'm going to be calling for your blood you son of a-" The old ninja released a scream of pain as Naruto stomped on his chest with a sickening crack.
"That's nothing new, you piece of shit. The only difference here is you won't succeed in hurting me, and you damn well won't succeed in killing me. Watch your steps you old bastard, because, if you step too far, you'll be one of the glorious sacrifices that I send to Jashin-Sama!" With that, Naruto raised his foot back into the air, bringing it down onto the old man's head, sending it crashing into the concrete floor.
Having preformed the goal he had set out to, Naruto turned from the man, leaving the general area that he had caused trouble in, never noticing the pair of eyes that watched him from the crowd, dangerously, with a sadistic smile on their faces.
~The Next Day, Training Ground Eight~
"Welcome back, team." Kurenai spoke as she observed the three approaching her. Hinata seemed tired, more than likely having stayed up late again, crying over Naruto's death. The Aburame sat still, giving almost no reading except that he was ready for the test. And 'Kane', there was nothing that she could go by to tell his emotions. "I'm going to get to the point, Your test today is to hunt me down, and defeat me within three hours. If any of you fail to do so, you will be sent back to the Ninja Academy for another year, okay? Good, because your test begins... Now."
Naruto's eyes narrowed as the woman disappeared, seemingly into thin air. "H-How'd She D-Do T-That?" Hinata questioned, looking around.
"Kurenai Yuhi, Genjutsu Specialist of Konohagakure No Sato. Her Genjutsu is said to be so strong, the only ones to break them were the Uchiha Clan. You should fucking know this, Hyuuga, you've known her almost longer than you've been in that damned academy." The hidden blond snapped towards the girl, forcing her to recoil, not that he cared, he wasn't going to let a weak bitch ruin his chances to help immortalize Jashin.
"You told us this test was about teamwork." Shino analyzed, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose, "Yet, the only ones trying to incorporate themselves into the team is Hinata and I. When do you begin to input more than just your bad attitude that you've held since yesterday. First impressions are the most important, and yours, is not a good one." Shino spoke, his eyes glaring from behind his shaded lenses into Naruto's own.
Snarling in rage, Naruto walked forwards, menacingly to where Shino began to step back in fear. "That's correct, Aburame, I told you this whole fucking test is about teamwork. Because it is. I never said that I was going to play nice with a bunch of fucking brats though. We pass this, leave, then start taking missions together. That's as far as our team and friendship goes you fucking bastard." With these words, Naruto walked past them before glancing over his shoulder, no one seeing the spiraling red eyes behind his lenses. "Now, as I said, she is a master of Genjutsu. You leave that to me because, unlike Hyuuga's, she can't get past my eyes. You two will distract her, at most. I'll deliver the finishing kill."
"That's it?" Shino questioned, appalled at the lack of thought. With a malicious grin behind his mask, Naruto turned his head forwards, staring into the woods as his sharingan eyes took in the sight of his sensei's chakra fused body.
"That's it." Naruto finalized, as he began walking forwards, his teammates scrambling to follow him. "All you need to do for now, is stick to the basics. I will handle the upper ranked work. With that, the three ninjas disappeared.
~Kurenai~
The red eyed Jounin glanced around herself suspiciously. 'It's been ten minutes... Where are they? I only gave them three hours, and if they hope to get past the Genjutsu I sat up-' Her thoughts were cut short, eyes widening as a shuriken pierced from the woods, almost slicing her cheek. Quickly coming to her senses and jumping away, Kurenai landed across the clearing with a grunt, only to be surprised as Hinata appeared from the woods, brandishing a Kunai. Quickly retrieving one of her own, Kurenai brought it into the air, sparks flying off as she blocked an attack by her student. "Hinata, you, of all people, should know not to attack me alone!"
"G-Gomen S-Sensei, but I'm N-Not a-alone!" at these words, Insects began releasing themselves from the woods, circling the red eyed jounin and her student dangerously.
"A sneak attack!" Kurenai exclaimed as Shino's voice rang out over the clearing, 'Attack'. At the key words, Hinata placed a kick in her surprised Sensei's abdomen, launching herself away as the insects began making a dive directly for the Jounin Sensei. The insects struck, the sound of tearing surrounding through the clearing before Shino recalled them, only to find shredded pieces of wood. Shino began walking forwards, a confused look on his usually stoic face, before the shredded log pieces became insect, all of which began buzzing loudly as they attacked him
Hinata watched her teammate begin struggling profusely, confused as he began screaming about being 'rejected from the Aburame'. Reaching forwards to touch her teammates shoulder, and hopefully bring him back to reality, Hinata's eyes widened as a hand shot out, grasping her hand in an iron grasp. Shakily looking up to the figure holding her, her eyes widened in fear as memories came flooding back,
memories of her kidnapping. "Hello little Hyuuga, did you miss me?" A male Kumo Nin spoke harshly.
In the trees of the woods sat the masked figure of Naruto, head tilted to the side in observation. 'What should I do?' He thought, seemingly to himself, before an answer responded. 'Dispel the Genjutsu, They did their part, enough to pass.' Nodding in understanding, Naruto raised his head, eyes spinning as they zoomed in on his teammates as their thrashing bodies finally quit, falling to their knees before, finally the ground. 'It is done.' With that, the hidden blond disappeared into a cloud of smoke, revealing himself to never have been anything more than a Kage Bunshin Clone.
~Kurenai~
The red eyed jounin sensei panted heavily as she landed outside of her training ground woods. 'They... almost had me...' Kurenai though to herself in response. 'If it hadn't been for my substitution jutsu, they may have beaten me... Wait... Where was K-'
"It seems you're missing one student." A voice sounded out, a metallic one, which promised nothin but pain and death. Eyes widening again, Kurenai dived to the ground, just barely able to dodge Naruto's Dao sword. "Impressive, it seems you do have training outside of that fucking pathetic Genjutsu."
"Your teammates were fighting me, where were you when it happened?" Kurenai questioned him, almost, accusingly.
"I was watching, to make sure that no lasting Genjutsu be placed on them. They'd be on their way here, if they hadn't believed your Genjutsu to be so real... Oh well, it seems it's just you and I Sensei."
"Impossible! A mere genin couldn't have broken past my Genjutsu!"
"Oh, but I did. None of your Genjutsu can escape my eyes!" With that, Naruto jumped forwards, forcing Kurenai to dodge under a swing of his Dao sword before it was broken into, forming two. Smiling maliciously, Naruto began swinging the swords with expertise mastered through only years of hard work and determination. Jumping away, Kurenai withdrew a kunai knife, Naruto's head tilting to the side at it, almost like he was mocking her. "Oh, you can't beat my sword with that, at least, not a material as primitive as that!" With the words, the boy lurched forwards, striking with the sword in his right hand.
Kurenai brought her kunai up to block, only for the sword to stop inches above the weapon, the sword in his left hand swinging towards her side. With widened eyes, Kurenai jumped away from the boy again, never noticing the chakra that left her, entering into the sword he held in his left hand, until she hit the ground. 'I'm... weaker! I have to end this now!' She thought, quickly flipping through ninja hand signs.
"Magen: Jubaku satsu!" She called, a 'Tree' growing out of the ground and surrounding her student in a bind, holding him in place as she disappeared into the ground, reappearing out of the tree, a kunai held to strike into the tall boy's neck. "Face it, Kane." Kurenai spoke, Naruto's smirk coming into play as he lifted his head with red sharingan eyes spinning wildly, though no one could tell. "This battle is over, and you have lost. Accept defeat!"
"You're correct, Kurenai, this battle is over. But I'm not the one who has lost." At these words, Kurenai, shockingly, found herself in her student's position, twirled into the tree as Naruto occupied her spot, now holding his Dao Swords to her throats. "Now, sensei, you admit defeat." Naruto spoke, Kurenai's eyes widening in complete and utter shock.
"How, there's no way you could have-"
"Save it, this battle is over."
"... Fine, you've won. I don't understand how, yet, but you've won. Now release me."
"You're the Genjutsu specialist, release yourself. And pick the rest of the team up. I can't be bothered to pick up people who couldn't even follow a simple fucking plan." With those words, aruto was gone, leaving his jounin sensei behind in the clearing, rage clear on her face as she began to try to fight against her bindings.
~Naruto~
"Soon, Jashin-Sama..." Naruto spoke to himself as he entered his apartment, removing his metal mask. "Soon I will be allowed to leave this village, and bring you the sacrifices that you wait so patiently for..."
That is all I have for now. I hope you have enjoyed, if not, it's truly nothing I should worry about.
