Game Mode

A: N Thanks for reviewing ^. ^

Chapter 2

Naruto rubbed his eyes, adjusting to the dark walls of his house not much had changed since he walked into it three years ago, before entering the academy, failing the academy and before his death.
Now with the mindset of a twelve year old in the body of a medium sized nine year old, he was ready for his first try at whatever his task was, or so he thought.
As he looked around he noticed his vision was a little different, there was a small X in the middle of his vision, and it would follow his line of sight, it was like it had been programmed into his brain!
He also noticed a medium sized bar below the X that had the letters 'HP' inside, below that was another massively large Bar with the words 'MP' inside.
'What in the Yondaime's name is that?! 'Naruto mentally screamed.
Strangely enough he got an answer.
'They are your Health and Mana pools, and the X, is your reticule, to help you aim.' Said the voice.
To say Naruto was shocked was an understatement he was baffled, was someone talking to his through telekinesis?
'Hello?' he thought, wondering if he hallucinated the voice 'Who are you?' He tried again.
'I am the Naruto Namikaze: Game Mode Tutorial AI.' The voice replied, betraying no emotion.
Naruto was, once again, shocked baffled, he couldn't make heads or tails of it! Naruto NAMIKAZE? Was that a different Naruto, or was his last name different, he was pretty sure he was Naruto UZUMAKI! Not NAMIKAZE! Plus it said game, literally was that what this was? A game?
Naruto's head was reeling with questions for the AI, so he settled for the questions that could potentially help him the most.
'If this is a game, what is the objective, and how do I win?'
'to successfully complete Game Mode, you must: As Naruto Namikaze, your primary goal is to become Hokage. As Sasuke Uchiha, your goal is to kill your Brother, Itachi Uchiha and you can optionally choose to restart the Uchiha clan.'
Naruto played this information over in his head, dismissing the stupid Uchiha option.
So he would have to become Hokage would he? Well he could live with that, definitely!
Deciding that he had enough of trying to figure out what the hell was going on, he decided to go and take a look at Konoha, see what might have changed and what not.
Just before his hand had touched the door handle, a pop-up appeared, it read:
Would you like to take the tutorial? (It is advised to take the tutorial for beginner players to grasp the concept of Game Mode)
Deciding he had nothing to lose he confirmed to taking the tutorial.
He suddenly saw flashing in the top left corner of his vision, it looked to be a large Square with dots on it, and it looked to be mimicking his surroundings, he realised one of the dots was him (thanks intelligence points) and that he was a yellow triangle and that the head of the triangle, was pointing towards the door, just like he was. He realised that it was a map of his surroundings, the flashing on said map, was a couple of blue flashing dots, in what looked to be a line out of his house.
Opening his front door and exiting his lovely abode, he saw his usual neighbourhood, run down houses and drug dealers.
Suddenly his landscape started changing, the graffiti disappearing, and soon, the buildings as well.
Looking around, Naruto noticed he was in a training field.
'Now, to fully utilise the Game Mode features, listen carefully' Spoke the AI 'as you progress through the game, and earn ranks and levels, you gain skills, now open the Game menu, and access skills' The AI spoke, not fully explaining was once again confused he didn't have a clue what he was supposed to do, when suddenly an Idea hit him."Menu" He said, a tab popped up, this time rectangular with the words:

Inventory
Skills
Quests
Map
Character.

Reaching out and pressing Skills, Naruto noticed a number of squares, with only a few coloured, Naruto guessed those were his available skills.
The ones in colour where Henge, Kawirami, a partly coloured Bushin and Kage Bushin.
'Now select a skill, and check its summary, it is wise to do so with any new skill to get a full grasp of it.' Said the AI
"New skills huh?" Naruto said grinning, Naruto quickly picked Kage Bushin and was amazed at what the pop-up told him!
Kage Bushin is a B-Rank technique, it requires great chakra reserves, but is quite easy to master, it is useful for training because when a Kage Bushin disperses it's memory's go to its casters, great for Chakra training, intelligence gathering, reading, and Ninjutsu training, it is also good for short errands.
'In Game Mode, you do not have to use hand seals to create Jutsu, which can be a huge advantage in the midst of battle.' The AI said
Naruto had his signature Sun-Shine grin on his face, his new Jutsu was the best! He could get them to study and train, and he could eat ALL the ramen he wanted! Plus, he didn't even need hand signs!
'I Bet Sasuke-Teme can't do that' He thought mentally woo hooing.
'Now, please cast a Jutsu, all you need to do is think that Jutsus name, and mould your chakra properly.'
Naruto started moulding what he thought was enough chakra for maybe ten or eleven Kage Bushin.
When Naruto thought 'Kage Bushin no Jutsu', a lot more than eleven Kage Bushin were created, standing around him, were at least 50 living Kage Bushin.
Naruto did start panting though which was not so good
"What the heck!?" Naruto shouted after catching his breath
'Let me explain what just occurred, because of your increased Chakra control, you were able to form a increased number of shadow clones by pumping in more the same amount of Chakra you would have used with higher Chakra and lower Control, but, because of your decreased Chakra, you were left panting, if only just.' Spoke the AI un-emotionally
"Wait, so I can create more shadow clones, by using my Chakra better?" Naruto questioned
'basically' replied the AI
"That's so cool!" Naruto shouted, like the 9 year old he was.
'Now that you can perform at least one Jutsu, you have the option, to quit the tutorial and get on with the game, or continue and learn some more benefits.' Spoke the AI
'Hmmm, I'll pass I want to go eat some Ramen anyway' Thought Naruto who accepted the request to leave on his new pop-up.
Suddenly the world began to change again, this time into the Konoha he knew, outside his apartment he walked back inside, for some sleep and ramen.
