The forest outside of the village gates

"Yatta!! I've gotten out now all I need to do is learn a Justu" Naruto smiled as he opened the scroll of sealing

"Let's see what justu should I learn" Naruto thought on the first part of the scroll he saw an interesting justu

"The Shadow Clone Justu: a clone justu that creates physical clones of one's self that can do any task the original can" Naruto read

"This one sounds good and it's only one handsign Wait until Mizuki Sensei see this" Naruto thought as he did Tiger seal only for nothing to happen

2 hours laters

"UGH why are they still exploding into water I'm trying to make Smoke" Naruto shouted

"FOUND YOU" Iruka shouted as he found Naruto

"DANG IT I don't even have a justu left can you please give me 5 minutes that's all I need then I'm certain I'll pass" Naruto said shocked by Iruka showing up

"NO You'll first explain Why you stole the Forbidden Scroll of Sealing" Iruka shouted

"For the make-up test Mizuki told me if I stole the scroll and learnt a Justu I would graduate" Naruto said

"and I'm so close to learning this one please Iruka-sensei can I please get just Five more minutes" Naruto begged

"Mizuki said ... but why" Iruka thought

"Hey Naruto looks like Iruka found you pass me the scroll and I will return it" Mizuki said as he revealed himself in the trees in front of them

"WAIT Naruto Don't Mizuki Lied to you" Iruka shouted

"What you mean" Naruto thought as he looked at Iruka

"Mizuki used you to get the scroll there's no make up test" Iruka shouted

"Hm To bad you didn't get a justu yet It would have been so much easier if you did" Mizuki said as he pulled out a fuma shuriken

"now don't move Naruto" Mizuki said as he threw a fuma Shurken

"Naruto RUN" Iruka shouted

Naruto started crawling but didn't get far enough The Shuriken cut through his body stabbing into the ground

Naruto was shocked as he saw a shuriken blade through his chest

"NARUTO" Iruka shouted when the shuriken cut Naruto it went right through him before being being imbedded into the tree in front of him

" I'm I'm fine???" Naruto said shocked as he felt no pain as he looked around though sluggish

"What" Iruka said still seeing the shuriken piecing Naruto's body

"WHAT" Mizuki shouted staring as no blood stained his Fuma shuriken

"NARUTO RUN I'll deal with this" Iruka said as he and Mizuki clash kunai before both disappeared into the forest clashing in random areas

"Fire Style Fire Dragon Bullet" Mizuki shouted as he fired one flaming head of fire at Iruka's location

"Earth style earth wall" Iruka said blocking the fireball and leaving a dust cloud in the area as both Iruka and Mizuki disappeared into the forest

Minutes later

"Naruto, Naruto" Iruka shouted

"Sensei where Mizuki" Naruto said as he walked out from behind a tree

"He's left behind underground I need you to give me the scroll of sealing I can get it to the hokage faster and that way he won't get it" Iruka said before being kicked in the gut and sent flying back

"Hm how you know it wasn't me" Mizuki said as his transformation ended

"Cause I'm Iruka" Iruka said as his transformation also ended

"Iruka why are you protecting it, You and I both know how much you hate him, he was the one who killed your parents" Mizuki asked frustrated as he got up

"You and I both sensed it's charka even if Naruto really is alive the fox charka has been flowing into him it'll be better for us and the village if Naruto just died" Mizuki agured

"Fox Charka" Naruto thought

"I don't care I've seen Naruto life he's been alone at birth just like all the rest of us orphans but even on top of that he had the burden of the Fox but he never gave up, He pushed through even as we all looked down and wished on his downfall." Iruka said

"Then you just don't have the willpower to do the choices that are needed" Mizuki shouted as he pulled another kunai and rushed Iruka before being kneed to the face

"Don't you dare hurt Iruka-Sensei" Naruto shouted

"And what will you do about it I can defeat you in one blow" Mizuki said

"Maybe before when I was alone but what will you do against a thousand of Me" Naruto shouted as he formed the tiger handsign and hundreds of clones filled the area and treetop though the trees looked like they've all been dehydrated

"Hm maybe Mizuki was right about one thing Maybe I was too hard on Naruto" Iruka thought as later saw the beat up Mizuki

"Hey Naruto come over here" Iruka said before Naruto hit the now unconscious Mizuki

"Yeah Iruka Sensei" Naruto said as he walked up to Iruka

"Close your eyes real quick" Iruka said

"For your strength, stealth, and most importantly your will I declare you're a genin" Iruka said as he covered Naruto head with his headband

"Now how about we go back to the leaf and turn in this traitor" Iruka said

Two Hours later

"Naruto you stay out here and wait currently people are still on edge about everything" Iruka commanded

"Yes Sir" Naruto said as he sat in a chair in the hokage tower's first floor

Up on the third floor

One Summary later

"... That's the sum up of what happened" Iruka said

"I see it well there's much to talk about first Naruto which jutsu did you set to learn" Hiruzen asked

"I do not know sir but I would like to add that he said he was trying the shadow clones but that they would dispel into a puddle of water instead of smoke like it's suppose to" Iruka said

"So you saying he somehow remade water clones instead" Hiruzen said

"For me it the only possibility though it doesn't explain how he survived the shuriken" Iruka mentioned

"That would need further investigation into Mizuki memories though it might be something of great use for him if it is what I think" Hiruzen said

"Now Iruka I must ask you take Naruto to his house but tell him he will need to come to my office tomorrow morning I'm going to have my talk with him" Hiruzen saidMonday morning academy training grounds

"Naruto Uzumaki The Hokage would like to see you" an Anbu told Naruto

"Gotcha" Naruto said as he started jumping over to the hokage office

13 minutes later

"HEY JIJI" Naruto shouted as he entered the door only for him to see Iruka and another chunin he's not met before standing beside the Hokage

"Hello Naruto please come take a seat" Hiruzen said

"I'm going get yelled at aren't I" Naruto said

"No it's not that it's something different" Iruka said

"Ok Naruto First I need you to tell me all that happened with the incident yesterday, after that we'll be giving you a small check in for something before, I tell you something you should have known for a long time " Hiruzen said in a calm voice

"Ok" Naruto said nervously

"Well yesterday after failing the genin exams I was told by Mizuki if I stole the scroll of sealing I would pass after that I stole the scroll and try learning the first justu listed The Multi Shadow Clone Justu but whenever I made it I got really thirsty and they would always burst into water instead of smoke after a while Iruka found me before fightning Mizuki who had showed up and then Mizuki talking about me leaking some Fox charka whatever that means After that I used the shadow clone justu to beat him" Naruto said

"Did you at any moment or time feel weird when Iruka and Mizuki were fighting" Hiruzen asked

"Now that you meant it I did feel like I was hit by something but when I checked my body nothing changed but I did suddenly become soaked in water" Naruto said

"I see Naruto I want you to make one of your shadow clones" Hiruzen said

"Ok Jiji" Naruto said as he tried to make a single shadow clone but made 4 on accident

"Now dispell them" Hiruzen said

as each shadow clone dispelled they left water spalted all over the hokage office

"Now Was there anything weird about his charka Gemma " Hiruzen asked

"It is just as Mizuki and Iruka said there's some Fox chakra but Naruto own charka is weird as it was acting as if he was making a water style justu and his shadow clone though they dispelled in water didn't have drastically less charka reserves like the water clone Justu is known for" Gemma explained

"Naruto you did success in making a clone justu but it wasn't the one you were looking for but one just as a good" Hiruzen said

"Naruto I am not fully sure yet but it seems you have a great water affinity" Hiruzen said

"And the clones you make while they are partial shadow clones seem they are also a mix of the water clone justu" Hiruzen said

"Since you have such a high affinity to water style I believe it's you can highly benefit by reading this" Hiruzen said as he pulled out a small blue book

"But I Hate Reading" Naruto complained

"Naruto this book is documenting his many water techniques that you could learn like ..." Hiruzen started before he noticed the book already taken from his hand

"SWEET" Naruto said as he held the book in both his hands and read the title

"The Principles of Water Style" by Tobirama Senju

"It's nothing think of it as your genin graduation gift" Hiruzen said

"THANK YOU JIJI" Naruto shouted hugging the hokage

"Ah Hem we're still not done" Gemma said

"Oh right Naruto so I know for quite a while you've been a questioning lots of thing about you most importantly I hope was why you're hated and now that you've reached the rank of genin it's time you've learn the truth" Hiruzen said

"Naruto on the day of your birth as you know the nine tails appeared and attacked the village."

Hiruzen said as Naruto shook his head

"What isn't talked about it the way it ended. During the end of the nine tails attack the fourth hokage was too tired to kill the beast. he as all villages have done since Hashirama's death decided to seal the beast instead. " Hiruzen said

"So he choose me." Naruto stated blankly

" It still unfortunately lead to his death but he saved the village by sealing the beast. But he choose you since just by living and striving to become a shinobi help keep the peace of the leaf by holding back the great terror that is the nine tails" Hiruzen said trying to painting it as something good but by the time he finished the sentence Naruto had already left his offic

"Why me" Naruto asked mad

"Why was I choosen why did he choose me instead of the other kids" Naruto said as tears started form

"I may never know especially with how he choose to do it but If I had to guess he trusted that someone like him could hold the beast off" Hiruzen said gloomily

"BUT I'M NOT HIM I'M JUST A DOUNCE A VERMIN A NOBODY" Naruto shouted as he left the room tears that were barely contained before now flowing like a river as he ran

"Gemma try to comfort him I know I'm not the best person for him to talk to right now if he does attempt to leave capture him and I will explain the full story" Hiruzen said

"Are you sure that would be wise Lord 3rd he might be physically ready for being a ninja but I don't know about mentally" Gemma asked as he went to the door

"Gemma I've done little to ease his pain at being a jinchuriki in the leaf after the leak and there's very little I can do even now without risking the village itself so please help the boy he doesn't show it but I know he's hurting and I can't wait for Kakashi or Jiraiya to come and do something" Hiruzen said

20 minutes later

"You got it wrong you sealed the kyuubi in the wrong kid I'm not like you I'm not a genius, I'm not loved, I'm not even regarded as anything but a vermin" Naruto said sitting behind the fourth hokage head

"Kid I will say this you and Lord Fourth have more in common then you think" Gemma said as he walked out the forest behind the hokage monument

"We're nothing alike you don't even know me past being the demon brat" Naruto said

"You mostly true on that but I know more then most" Genma said as he sat down beside Naruto

"I know you're one of the few kid in the academy who has no family and has been pegged as deadlast of his class, and who has been hated by majority of the village." Gemma said slightly lazily as if he was stating the most obvious facts

"But I also know that this same kid even though he was dead last is known to able to sneak around in that bright orange of yours . I also know you rank in the upper tier of your class physically but you only ever choose to fight the top of your class Sasuke Uchiha and from that constantly lost. But the most surprising thing I know about you is that you're a kid who figured out the shadow clone Justu and made your own version within a few hours" Gemma said smirking

"You might not be a practical genius like Lord Fourth or Lord Third but you have some genius in you if yesterday is anything to base off" Gemma said

" I remember you as the kid who has screamed to the heavens that you will become hokage but I don't see him right now" Gemma said

"All I see is a kid who doesn't know the first thing about ninja life and has passed on a fluke and nothing else" Genma finished harshly

"So what your just going to be one more naysayer to join the group but no matter how much y'all complain or doubt me it won't stop me" Naruto said with a bit of his usually enthusiasm at the end

"So why is this" Gemma asked

"What" Naruto said confused

"You've lived your whole life looked down and knowing you're hated so why does knowing the reason change anything. Much less why mope about it you've just been given a chance to disapprove everyone and become a great ninja but here you're moping talking to a stone face" Gemma said

"Yeah you're right it doesn't change anything." Naruto said as he wiped his tears away

"What have I been doing here. Moping that Emo's job. I just got some new justu I need to learn" Naruto said perking up with his usually gusto and was about to run off but he stopped

"Hey thank you Mister but what's your name" Naruto asked

"Call me Genma kid and if you need another talk always know your seniors can help" Genma said

"Ok but I don't think I'll need it i'm need to go straight to training if I ever want to master these water justu Jiji was talking about" Naruto

Week Later

As naruto walks in to the room early this sets everyone off

"naruto came and early too something troublesome coming isn't it" Shikamaru thought

"naruto-kun has a headband I wonder what's happen " Hinata

Then what happens next shocked them all

Naruto took out The Principles of Water Style and started reading

" Naruto is that you" Choji asked surprised seeing Naruto purposely reading

"ofcourse it's me Choji who else would it be" Naruto said

"Ok just find it wierd you've never started reading for yourself before" Choji said

"Yeah I'm reading I guess it just Iruka hasn't been doing it the right way since I've been stuck reading this book Jiji gave me" Naruto said

"So what's in about that got you so interested" Choji asked

"It's about how to use water style ninjustu" Naruto said

"Wait so you know how to use water style like the Second Hokage" Choji asked

"Nah that numbskull probably stole it and the headband" Kiba butted in as he walked in

"Na uh I got this headband from Iruka sensei himself" Naruto said

"Sure you did i wonder did you do this the last 2 years too" Kiba taunted

"How about you back up your words Mutt" Naruto said getting up glaring at Kiba

"Sure Deadlast I can beat you before the bell rings" Kiba said as he glared back

"I'LL GET THERE FIRRST INO-PIG"

"NO I WILL FORHEAD"

"YES I ARRIVED FIRST " Sakura shouted

"No I was the only reason you think you win is your massive forehead" Ino responded

Q

"What you say you pig" Sakura said

"You heard it forehead or is you ears unable to hear from the forehead being in front" Ino said before the bell rang and both rushed to their seats next to Sasuke

Iruka comes in with a few other Jounin behind him

"Good Morning Class its good to see you finally quiet in your seats by the bell ring " Iruka said calmly

"This day is the one you've waiting for years Today you'll finally graduate the Academy and with that as genin you'll have jounin sensei those are the fine people who came behind me though some of them are running late" Iruka said

"Well I will be calling you up by squad and then you follow your jounin sensei Out Squad 1-4 are still being used squad five is ..." Iruka annocued the different teams

"Ew I'm with a brat like Naruto" Sakura thought

"Sasuke Uchiha" Iruka said

"TRUE LOVE CONQUERS ALL" Sakura squealed

"Quiet Sakura" Iruka said

"You sure that one is top kunoichi". Kurenai whispered

"According to the Board she won out by academics and matched on of the clan heirs" Asuma whispered back

"Now team 8 consists of ..." Iruka said
