The blue wheel of fate. The silky, shiny blue hair that ran through the waves of the raging sea. No wonder the heir to the Uzumaki Family had deep connections with the desert. Concentric circles displayed the ferocity of a king, hidden by the sapphire case back. Never try to put a void in the past that cannot be forgotten. Protect the Poneglyph. Raise the flag of dawn to the world.

Nefertari
Chapter 1 (Prologue)
"Drastic change!"
"So Lily…
Yes…?
You look nervous. This is weird. That wasn't the information I got about your temper, Queen Lily of the Nefertari Family. Why are you behaving this way around me?
… not exactly. Your eyes… do you intend to say anything else?
Well, don't blame me. You are more beautiful than I imagined. However, I am sorry for the things that happened. I heard about what you turned down.
Oh... thanks.
Tell me something, because this doesn't seem like a battle you can win on your own. Mind letting me help you, Nefertari D. Lily? In fact, I'm not alone."
~?
It is common knowledge that the world was a gigantic, concentrated landmass rotating permanently in the glowing darkness that is the universe.
A universe filled with stars of the most varied colors and sizes. Some older than others, but all going through the same process of implosion and recreation.
This is the rebirth.
The wheel of destiny that would never stop turning, whether to continue men's dreams or carry an indomitable will that not even time itself would be able to prevent its return.
This is rebirth through the Six Paths.
"It's so peaceful here. I really don't want to go back to that turbulent place again."
The blue sky was a little brighter on this sunny morning. The sun's rays covered a large part of the island that was mostly covered in trees and animals roamed into view.
However, that wasn't all.
There was a child on that island now.
The boy's appearance could not be ignored so easily. Blond hair vibrant like the sun, tanned skin and abnormally above average height for a child his age. He was wearing a simple orange kimono with several red swirls decorating the outfit. Nothing on the feet.
He was lying exactly in the center of the entire island. The boy with spiky blond hair had his eyes closed in concentration and had both hands behind his head humming a silly song.
"I wonder…"
"… who should I choose to reincarnate with me?"
Sapphire eyes with concentric circles opened to the world and then a gravitational pulse radiated, covering the entire island in moments with small tremors.
"You already did this, Naruto." – came the stoic voice of another child who appeared from behind a tree carrying something large on his shoulder.
The boy was so abnormally tall too. He had blue-black hair, dark eyes, fair skin and was wearing a dark blue kimono with tomoe decorating it. Around his waist he had a purple obi and on the left side he had a sheath with gold details.
"Are you back yet? I thought it would take longer to finish such a heavy job… powerful Uchiha-sama." – Naruto mocked playfully without looking back and smiled at the irritation he could feel coming from his friend.
The Uchiha just looked at the other boy for a few seconds thinking about something and after much consideration he decided to ignore the provocation with a quick shrug. He began to walk effortlessly with what he was carrying until he was practically next to the Uzumaki who was already standing and dusting off his kimono.
CRA-CRACK!
BOOOOOOOM!
They raised their heads a little, as sounds of battle echoed across the island scaring most of the ferocious animals, but the duo remained completely unaffected.
"How long do you think he'll take this time?" – Sasuke asked indifferently, throwing what was on his shoulder to land on the island's floor and managing to cause a small tremor.
"I don't know. You know how problematic everything is for him…" – the Uzumaki replied with a strange smile and scratching the back of his head.
Sasuke just nodded with a small murmur and then extended his left arm to the side as if he was waiting for something. Black flames came to life in that arm like a rabid animal, but it wouldn't be long before all that hellish sea was concentrated in the index finger.
A cold smile covered the nine-year-old boy's stoic features as he began to ostentatiously dedicate himself to the work he would be doing for the next few years.
There was certainly no one in the four seas who could hope to rival his cuisine against him, the Heir of the Uchiha Clan.
Sweat fell down Naruto's forehead as he watched his friend begin to casually cook a bear the size of a two-story house like it was nothing on giant tree leaves.
"Damn it. This is problematic."
The boy genius's words weren't quiet enough, because the tiger's posture changed as he grew so much in size that his neck was already complaining to take another nap looking at this freak of nature.
"I should shut up. I'm picking up on Naruto's weird mannerisms." – he cursed in a low voice when he had to move quickly from where he was to avoid being forked in half by a claw strike that darkened before contact. – "Poor tree."
The beast roared looking at the human who had decided to sleep on his back as him prepared for another hunt earlier in the day. The tiger wasn't worried about what he could see, because the boy was weak but irritating to his keen senses.
It wasn't the first time he had smelled this one. He usually didn't walk around here alone, because he could see two other boys with him.
A blond who sang painfully loud and another brat who thought he was too good to walk here.
However, the tiger always had an intriguing idea about this trio. He was watching them. There was a certain composition that tickled the senses of the beast that now hunted the pineapple-haired boy like a deer caught in headlights, slippery as a damned fleeting shadow.
The composition was that the trio had the blond in front, the other celebrity boy who was on the right side and this pineapple who was on the left side. Once the tiger-
"You are an intelligent being, aren't you?"
Hearing the boy's serious voice was an unexpected movement for the creature who stopped feeling something wrong in the atmosphere. The tiger grunted a little when he saw the same boy land in front of him nonchalantly.
"Is the whole island full of animals like you? Look, we're not here to fight, but we need to feed ourselves." – sighed the boy, taking both hands to rest inside the greenish kimono. He spoke calmly, without rushing.
The tiger just roared in response and a rumble advanced towards the boy who quickly took both hands out of his kimono pockets and positioned them in front. A barrier appeared facing the contact and the creature's shockwave was split in half to hit the trees behind the boy.
The beast stood there and was perplexed, watching all this happen. The creature tried to move to attack with a more powerful blow, but a cold sensation covered all of its fur within a few seconds of contemplation looking at the ground and the terrifying reality had finally arrived.
They were connected.
The gigantic animal heard an exaggerated sigh and turned its eyes to the individual causing all the panic that was ravaging the creature's soul.
'That… he has-'
An oppressive wave was born from the boy's position and spread until it hit the creature hard. The tiger sweat bullets with the aura of a conqueror and even tried to resist the unimaginable pressure, but a second pulse even stronger than the first came from the boy who had one eye open in curiosity and even looking a little impressed.
However, that last pulse would mark the end of the creature.
"Then you really understand me. This is interesting. I'll need to talk to Naruto about this. I can't let that crazy Uchiha continue with his plans to eradicate all the animals on this island, just so we can be healthy..." - the boy rambled out loud with a hand on his chin and his eyes closed, successfully ignoring the sound of choking and the impact of the unconscious tiger's body against the island.
"… or not. Damn. This is problematic." – he finished his own monologue with another sigh, but then he scratched his head in silent contemplation. – "Now… how am I going to carry this without the help of Naruto's clones? I think I'll take a nap and look for the answer to that question later."
At that moment, Nara Shikamaru lay down again above an unconscious tiger and closed his eyes, happy with another opportunity for relaxed rest.
The Heir of the Nara Family, specialized in intelligence and strategy, was determined that now was the best time to map what lay beyond this lost island once again.
Tremor.
Unfortunately, this would not be the golden opportunity that young Nara had been looking for since the end of the hunt, because even with his eyes closed he could see how the sea around the island moved to form circles and circles until there were six.
Repeating itself in patterns of mesmerizing expansions, but without exceeding the six circles. A truly magnificent sight for those up high, but it was something else for Shikamaru who knew what it meant.
"No rest then. Problematic."
The story of Uzumaki Naruto was older than the sands of the desert itself, afraid to say they were greater than time itself.
The Heir of the Uzumaki Family.
A formidable man with countless enviable qualities. Unwavering determination, burning desire and the dream of bringing peace to your beloved world.
A miserable place. A land ravaged by countless wars, disagreements and tales of hatred. An ancient story that dates back even before the creation of this new universe.
The outcome that resulted in the end of the Fourth Great Ninja War brought with it the news of a promising future, but along with this came great changes.
The first of them is that Uzumaki Naruto could no longer continue to be a simple shinobi guarding the walls of the Hidden Leaf Village or simply being the hero of the entire world.
He could be neither one nor the other. He should be more.
He should be the King.
However, the discovery that there was an unknown race roaming space and just waiting to dominate their homeland served to cement this fact.
Having made this eternal decision amid solitary contemplation, the Uzumaki absorbed the essence of Kaguya and Shinju into his own body, going further and connecting all that amazing and colossal power to his own soul and spirit through the six paths.
The moment he reached the end of that irreversible sealing, the waves of the concentric sapphire eyes would open to see reality and the six paths would take care of guarding the wheel of destiny that would continue to turn forever and ever.
Caring for and guiding the soul of the chosen one with an abysmally surprising willpower to cause earthquakes and shake the roots of the universe until dawn brings the liberation of the chained spirits.
And the beats of hearts be like the dance of liberation, causing smiles of joy and spreading the rebirth of men's dreams that never end.
However, the truth about the past-
"I advise you not to finish this. If anyone else discovers our story, things could take turns that we won't be able to fully control, Naruto. Do you still remember what that woman Nefertari looked like?" – Shikamaru said, emerging from the shadows of darkness and sitting down with his back against a tree near the giant fire roasting tiger and bear meat for dinner.
Hearing Shikamaru's voice, he stopped with the brush in the air. The Uzumaki had a thick book with a purple cover in his other hand.
The dark drops dripped freely, but before they had a chance to smudge the paper, they disappeared like tiny tears in the wind.
"Why? It seems like something totally plausible to reveal. Maybe we should go around spreading the truth above the Red Line or hand it over to those Yonkō people." – came the distant and sarcastic voice of Sasuke who was taking care of the seasonings and side dishes for the meal. At the moment, he had a giant knife in his hands and was masterfully cutting vegetables on a wooden table that showed no signs of aging.
The Uzumaki hummed at the blue memories that came with the mere mention of a name that was so old for the current time, but ignored it in favor of taking the two's opinions into consideration.
"I locked the island the moment Shikamaru took down the tiger. We need to train. Very. Right now, we are weaker than an ant compared to the monsters in this world." – Naruto understood the direction where his two friends were trying to take the conversation.
The blond then stretched his back a little and made the objects in his hands disappear with a small smoke. A Fūinjutsu symbol glowed beneath his kimono and that was it.
"Besides, you both know that I wouldn't be crazy enough to reveal anything that shouldn't be known." – the blond added with a wide smile looking at his friends who nodded positively.
The Uchiha continued working extremely focused on the incredible act of cooking, according to the Uzumaki, so he and Nara were forced to wait for the outcome of what would be an impressive dinner.
The trio took the opportunity to chat and put on the table the plans that were conceived through much thought and the perception of what the world had become.
The sea was almost infinite for a man, woman, child or any other species not to be completely free.
The blue wheel of destiny will not stop turning and the concentric circles will be the protectors of the stones and the river that preserves the history of the lost century for future generations.
To be continued.
