Hey guys, Kurama here with another chapter of Naruto: Gamer of the Heavens and I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

Disclaimer: I do not own this story.
Let's begin!
-Timeskip-
It's been five years since I reincarnated into the body of one Uzumaki Naruto and it's been one of the best decisions I've made in my entire life.
I mean, I haven't been too focused on getting new [Skills] or levelling up but it's been fun being a kid again.
I've made a couple of friends due to my lineage as the son of Minato spreading through the village like wildfire.
That came with the ultimate evil, fangirls.
Do you know how Sasuke never responded to any of their feelings in the original series?
Yeah, I kind of understand why he did that.
Onto my family now, I love these people.
Shizune and Tsunade are nothing like in the series 'cause I kind of expected one of them to kill me via malnourishment or something but surprisingly enough, they're pretty good at taking care of children
The skills they got from when they took care of other children showed from time to time, especially when I attempted to learn more about chakra.
The number of times Tsunade or Shizune caught me recreating some of Gojo's techniques is too many to count but in the end, I managed to learn it about a while ago.
Chakra Technique: Red (Active) LVL: 2/40 [30%]
Description: Adopting the same properties as that of the Gojo Clan, you create a ball of chakra to repel things. This can also do some damage if you increase its output. It is paired well with the Chakra Technique: Blue.
Cost: 1000 CP
Chakra Technique: Blue (Active) LVL: 2/40 [30%]
Description: Adopting the same properties as that of the Gojo Clan, you create a ball of chakra to attract things. This can also do some damage if you increase its output. It is paired well with the Chakra Technique: Red.
Cost: 1000 CP
I'm more focused on mastering these two abilities before learning how to shoot out Hollow Purples left and right but again, it's kind of hard to do that when your supposed 'mom' keeps watching over you like a hawk.
The only time she truly leaves me to myself is when she has to go to work since Hiruzen put her in charge of the hospital in Konoha so the Village could attract some customers.
It works and Shizune helps her out sometimes when she's not on missions so that's the best time for me to train and hone my techniques.
Other than that, I suppose I've been enjoying my new life, even with the threats of Orochimaru, the Akatsuki and Madara looming on the horizon.
I think it's more accurate to say that I have all the time in the world to figure out a plan to take them out.
For now though...
Kunai (Common)
Description: A basic weapon that allows the user to attack and defend.
Skill [Observe] has levelled up!
Ahh...
The sweet sound of levelling up.
The Gamer power is truly something out of this world.
"Naruto, I'm going to work. There's food in the fridge and Anko will come babysit you in a few minutes. Bye! Mommy will see you later!" Tsunade says before pecking me on the cheek and sprinting out of the door, which means that she's late again to work this morning but this isn't anything new.
I kind of got used to the fact that Tsunade wasn't a punctual person, kind of like Shizune was secretly a stalker.
How do I know that she's a stalker?
Well, I read her diary, which is surprisingly well written, considering the fact she's kind of a klutz.
The number of times I've watched her do backflips because she tripped and fell into a pool of water is ridiculous.
Back to her being a stalker though, she got a huge crush on Shisui Uchiha and followed him for a couple of months until Tsunade caught her and forced her to be friends with him just so she could stop stalking him.
I mean, it worked 'cause they're now best friends and sometimes schedule double dates with Itachi and his girlfriend, Izumi Uchiha.
This also led to me meeting Sasuke about a year ago and we've been best friends ever since.
Granted, we're both kids so there's a language barrier due to my eloquence but it's the memories together that make up for everything else in life.
"Brat! You'd better not be playing with one of the Fourth's Kunais. Your mom said she would uppercut me into Iwa if that happened so let's do what she says, okay?" Anko says before finding me playing with a red chakra ball in both of my hands.
...
...
...
"Shit," I say before shutting off my technique to clasp my hands over my mouth while Anko just looks at me like I've grown two heads.
"Who taught you those words? Wait, no, that's not what I should be asking. What I should be asking is how did you do that?" She yells the question while pointing her finger at me.
And this is why I like being alone.
Less drama and whatnot but that's not an issue right now.
I need to make sure that she won't rat me out to Tsunade so I guess it's time for the operation to terminate the babysitter.
"Mom knows I curse and as for what you saw, I'm practising for when the academy starts," I say before tilting my head a bit to the side to make maximum use of my charms as a baby.
"Well, I mean, if you're not hurting yourself then I guess you can do whatever you want. We'll go out to eat in a few. Make sure to have some energy until then." Anko says before leaving me inside my room.
"Whew, that was a close one." I sigh in relief as a ping goes off in my head before I shift my focus onto it.
For using your charms as a child, you have gained 1 in your CHA stat!
Nice!
I suppose the best thing to do now would be to go check on Sasuke 'cause I did kinda promise him I would spend some time with him.
Grabbing the sunglasses that Shizune gave me for my third birthday, I put them on and go to meet Anko, who's eating leftovers from dinner last night.
She finishes it up and we head out to the park.
Along the way, I try to use [Observe] as much as possible since it's level 4 and I want it to be level 5 by the end of the day so I can be one step closer to getting it to level 10, which is it's max level.
"Naruto, you're here," Sasuke says before tackling me to the ground with the force of a rhino.
He must be happy to see me or...
He fucked up and needs my help again.
Look, Sasuke is gonna be my best friend and all but he cannot control his emotions.
There was one instance where someone said that the Sharingan wasn't the best bloodline and Mister Self-control over here decided to attack him.
Itachi had to step in and stop him from throwing out any more punches to the kid.
I'm pretty sure that kid is gonna grow up with PTSD when hearing about the Uchiha.
"Yo Sasuke. Quick question, you mind getting off of me?" I ask in a deadpan voice as the young Uchiha lets go of me so we can play.
"Hello, Naruto. How are you doing?" Sakura asks with a blush on her face.
"Naruto, here. My mom gave me some food for you for when we're done playing." Hinta says before handing me a Bento box.
"You blind bat! You always have to show me up." Sakura yells at Hyuga, who in response, flashes her an arrogant smirk.
Oh yeah, forgot about that for a second.
So, about two years ago, Hinata's mother was dying while trying to give birth to Hanabi but Tsunade saved her, which kinda helped Hiashi not become the stoic asshat I remember him to be.
To make things a bit better, Hizashi is still alive thanks to Hiruzen sending some rogue Hyuga Elders to Kumo after he got wind of them planning a coup to have Hiashi become Hokage.
As for Sakura, I may or may have not defended her when she got bullied for her forehead instead of Ino and that led to her developing a big crush on me.
I'm still unsure of what to do with the two of them 'cause both of them are my friends but I don't want this to turn into a huge grudge match in the future.
"Blind bat!"
"Billboard Brow!"
"Blind bat!"
"Billboard Brow!"
"Blind bat!"
"Billboard Brow!"
"Blind bat!"
"Billboard Brow!"
"Enough! We're here to have fun so can we please do this another day?" I say, feeling exasperated with my decision to not cease all of this but it is entertaining to watch two girls fight over me.
With that, we play a ton of games, which includes Ninja, which is kind of like hide and seek except well two people track you down instead of one.
Since Hinata and Sasuke were picked, I had to hide somewhere better so I ran off to another section of the park.
I find a forest step inside it and find a pile of decomposed corpses and ninja tools.
20 Shurikens (Common)
Description: A basic weapon that allows the user to fight by throwing them.
Katana (Common)
Description: A weapon that allows the user to attack and defend himself.
Ninjutsu Scroll (Fire Release: Great Fireball)
Description: This scroll contains the technique for Fire Release: Great Fireball, a C-rank technique.
Durability: 30/50
Those are pretty good, especially that Ninjutsu scroll 'cause if I can get it then I'll be able to get further ahead than pretty much all of the civilian kids since they can't learn any jutsus until the start of the Academy.
But the question is how do I get the Jutsu?
Do I have to learn it like everyone else or...
Would you like to absorb the Jutsu?
Hera, been a while.
I was starting to think you took a vacation or something.
Nah, I did what you did and took a break since there wasn't much to do but now's the time for us to go back to work.
Indeed, partner, indeed.
Would you like to absorb the Jutsu?
Y/N?
I tap [Y] and another screen appears before me.
Skill gained.
Fire chakra manipulation LVL: 1/100 [0%]
Description: Your ability to use fire chakra as a way to fight.
CP cost will vary.
Huh, that's weird.
I thought I'd get the Jutsu as a [Skill, not this.
This is to make things easier for you. Instead of having thousands of Skills that will make you way too OP, I've made it a bit simpler so you can understand it and use it more efficiently.
Ah, I see.
Thanks for looking out for me, partner.
REP increased with Hera for praising it and making it valued.
Hera [10/100]
Of course, you're valued.
You're my partner and that's not going to change.
Thank you, partner.
You're welcome.
Now I just need to do the hand signs for it and I should be good.
...
...
...
...
"I don't remember how to do them. There's gotta be somewhere on this pile of corpses that teaches me how to do this." I mutter to myself before I start searching the pile of dead bodies to find a guidebook on how to use my first Jutsu.
"Shinigami damnit! It can't be this fucking hard to find a stupid guidebook for an overused Jutsu." I curse before putting my hands because I forgot that we were still playing ninja and I just gave my position thanks to my yelling.
The others can't find this because well, they'll vomit and the sight before them could very well traumatize them for life, which is something I don't want if I can avoid it.
I exit the forest but not before promising to come back at a later date and see what other finds can I get.
I'm then tackled by a small blur, which reveals itself to be Sasuke, who I guess must've been nearby
"Found you Naruto," Sasuke says, panting heavily as the others catch up to him by running.
"So you did, Sasuke. Quick question, how close were you to my position?" I ask because there was no way Sasuke knew how to sense chakra so either he was tailing me or this was just pure luck.
Either way, we should probably go and meet with our guardians before they worry.
Not Anko 'cause well, she doesn't care but as for the rest of them, yeah, they do.
"I'm kinda hungry, do you mind if we get something to eat?" Hinata asks me, putting her hand on my shoulder to get attention.
I'm 90 percent sure she's doing this to piss Sakura off but I'm too mentally tired to do anything about it so I let her have this one.
We head over to where our guardians are and go to a random food place and get something to eat.
Some conversations are going around my circle but I'm too focused on trying to remember the hand signs to partake in them.
...
...
...
This isn't working.
I need to go back home and hit the books since there might be some that can help me with my problem.
Eventually, we have to go back home so I bid the others goodbye and walk back to my house with Anko in tow, who's eating some Dango.
I'm starting to see how she got overweight in Boruto.
That lady does not know the definition of moderation.
Once we're home, Anko goes to talk to Shizune, who has Kurenai and Hana over to do girl talk so I tell him good night and head over to the library so I can find books on how to perform hand signs.
I take a huge pile of books set it on a table and begin to read every one of them until I stumble over what I'm looking for.
It's called 'Hand Signs for morons'.
"Geez, rubbing a bit of salt over the wound, huh?" I mutter, annoyed by the fact that it took me this long to find what I'm looking for but I found it and that's all that matters.
The hand signs for the Great Fireball are Horse Tiger Snake Ram or Tiger Monkey Boar Horse Tiger.
I take a look at it one more time then copy the hand signs as the book shows it.
I then go into my bathroom to not set something on fire 'cause it would then burn the house down and I don't want that on my conscience.
Opening the bathroom sink, I let cold water fill it up until it's not able to anymore and then I stop the bathroom sink immediately.
'Here it goes.' I thought before repeating the hand signs, which was a lot easier thanks to the couple of tries I had earlier.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball!" I shout before spewing out a basketball-sized fireball at the water but it then sizzles out of existence 'cause I then stopped the glow of chakra through my lungs.
"I did it! I used my first Jutsu! Hahaha! Fear me mortals for I am a God. Muhahahaha!" I yell out happily.
My very first Jutsu, a bit pricey on the chakra points but still...
It's mine to use but now that's done, the next step would be learning how to control my chakra so I could have a much better grasp on how much chakra I'm using whenever I use the techniques I'm gonna learn in the future.
Oh, but I also need to meet Kurama since it's a personal goal of mine to meet him before I become a Genin but I know he's not gonna take too lightly me stepping into his territory.
Ah... so much to do yet so little time even though I'm still 5 years old.
"Naruto, I heard you scream. Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?" Shizune asks in rapid succession, grabbing me so she can take a better look at me.
Ah, she's such a worrywart but that's what I love about her and that's why her being a medic is perfect.
"I'm alright big sis. I just learnt something new." I say cryptically.
"Oh...? Is it ninja-related? You know how mom feels about you doing things that shinobi related." She says, putting her hands on her hips to make herself more intimidating but it's the opposite because I try to stifle a laugh that could get me into more trouble than I currently am.
"I know how she feels about it but next year I'm going to the Academy to learn how to become one. Shouldn't I get a headstart on what to learn?" I ask her.
"...This isn't the best place to talk about this, you know that, right?" A voice says as I and Shizine turn around and see a pissed-off Tsunade, a mysterious aura surrounding her as I hear a ping in my head.
Skill [Detect Killer Intent] has levelled up!
Oh... I was wondering what happened to it after I got it to level 12.
It's getting much harder to level up this [Skill] but Kurama's Killer Intent could fix that problem for me.
I just have to survive long enough to do so.
"I thought I made myself clear on when you could start training in Shinobi arts but apparently, my words mean nothing to you Naruto." She says we all head over to the living room and sit on opposite sides of each other.
"I'm doing this because the enemy won't wait until I'm 12 to kill me. I need to master the power that was given to me by the late Fourth." I say hotly.
"'Enemy'? Do you hear yourself when you say those words? What enemy could you possibly have?" Tsunade responds, barely containing her anger.
"Those that threaten the safety of the village and its people, these are the ones that I consider my enemy."
"You're a child Naruto! You shouldn't worry about enemies attacking the village! You should worry about other things like what games you're gonna play with your friends, what you're gonna do before nap time, not... this. I don't want you to learn anything related to shinobi until you are old enough to do so." Tsunade says with finality.
"But I-"
"That's final! Now, go to bed." She says before I head over to my room, silently cursing for getting too ahead of myself because now, she's gonna keep a close eye on me to make sure that I don't get until I start the Academy.
She does that every time I do something remotely dangerous like jumping on rocks or that one time I tried to walk on water to get started on my chakra control exercises early but ended up drowning.
She watched me take a bath for three whole months.
"This is bullshit. Now I'm getting benched all because of a mistake. Damn it." I curse silently before thinking of ways to bypass this punishment.
Gah...
I'm too tired to think about this.
I'll deal with this another time.
With that, I lay on my bed and soon enough, I fell asleep.
-POV change-
"Do you think I did the right thing, Shizune?" Tsunade asks, sipping a bit of her sake with a saddened expression on her face.
"You did what any mother would've done, Lady Tsunade. Now, please stop drinking out of sadness. You need to rest for tomorrow." Shizune says while trying to swipe away Tsunafde's drink but to no avail surprisingly enough, even while she's drunk, her reflexes are still sharp enough that she's able to dodge most attacks heading her way.
Suddenly, a knock on the door can be heard so both student and master go out to see who it is, not expecting anybody.
Opening the door, they couldn't help but be shocked.
'That chakra! That power! It can't be!' Shizune thought before glass fell on the floor with droplets of blood falling also.
That was courtesy of Tsunade, who's angered beyond anyone's wildest comprehension.
She then lets out in a cold voice.
"What are you doing here, Jiraiya?"
"Mind if I come in? We need to talk about Naruto. He's in danger."
'This is gonna be...interesting.' Shizune thought, eyeing both her master and her teammate.
This was gonna be a long conversation between two of the three legendary Sannins.
END!
Hey guys, thanks for the support on this story. I wasn't too sure about the big-time skip but I don't think there was any other way to do it 'cause if I did it like I do it normally, Naruto would've become a god-like being by the time the Academy starts and rather than do that and get you all pissed off, I decided to make a huge time skip that shows Naruto just living life, not focusing on training too much.
Response to reviews.
Monkey King Omega: Yeah, no. Jiraiya is just reacting in a way the villagers reacted in the main storyline. He thinks Naruto's a demon because of Minato's death. Jiraiya is one of my favourite characters so for this to have been said just frustrates me a bit.
Guest: Yeah, I wanted to go a different route than Hiruzen just leaving Naruto to fend for himself. There are going to be a lot more changes because of that decision.
ofbefb34: Huh? Bend reality? All he got was Killer Intent detection Skill and the usual Gamer Skills. I didn't give him any OP Skills because I know that I can write a Gamer fic that goes beyond the Skills.
Samuel Santillian: Thanks for the appreciation, my dude. As to how strong Naruto is gonna be, he's gonna be one of the strongest out of all the rookie 12, only matched by Neji, Sasuke and Rock Lee since they are the same age as him. I do like the harem idea so I'll kick-start it.
blazes207: Appreciate it man.
EndingF4te: Thanks, man. I appreciate it.
