Edit: I made a mistake where I wrote that Sage Mode wasn't possible because there was no chakra in this world... xD I corrected my mistake.

Life always played interesting games with people's lives. How many times had a person thought to themselves, "It can't get any worse," and in the end something even worse happened.

The strangest things always happen in life. Whether it was within a year or a lifetime. Many strange miracles or mysteries accumulated, and many people could not explain how the result had come about.

Why did lightning strike the ground even though there were high-rise buildings all around the area? Many things were unclear to people, even though they had already discovered and were able to explain many things.

Naruto had already seen a lot in his life. About people who could run up walls, walk on water, unleash fire from their mouths and much more. In the world he came from, it wasn't uncommon to shatter a rock with a punch.

He had fought many battles as a shinobi, ultimately even fighting in a great war that determined the fate of the world. But everyone knew the story of Naruto Uzumaki, the 7th Hokage of Konohagakure. He was the hero of Konoha because, like his father, he achieved the decisive victory in the war and thus brought the village to fame.

At 30 years old, he was the strongest shinobi alive. Only his best friend, Sasuke Uchiha could hold a candle to him. He was an excellent shinobi and had achieved everything he wanted. He had stopped his best friend from falling into darkness, he had become Hokage, he had been recognized by the village, and other things. He just couldn't win over his true love. But that was fine with him because as Hokage he had no time for a woman.

He had promised himself one thing when he accepted the Hokage's hat from Kakashi Hatake at the age of 24: he wouldn't make the same mistake and just sit in the office. He would continue to train and have another job. He was also able to accomplish this with his Kage Bunshin (Shadow Clones). The Hokage's job was very time consuming, but he had also managed to learn another thing.

He didn't even know why he learned this thing. He had learned blacksmithing from an old friend from his time as a fresh genin. It was time-consuming and he was sometimes away from the village for 5 days at a time. Of course, his Shadow Clones took care of everything and since there were no big fights and there was peace between the 5 major nations, he had time to leave the village for a few days.

But in the winter of his 30th year, something happened that no one would have expected. While Naruto was sitting at his desk doing his normal work, he suddenly sensed something in the distance. Before he could do anything, Sasuke showed up in his office. It was immediately clear that a great danger was approaching Konoha.

As it later turned out, 2 new Ōtsutsuki had come to earth. So that the village wouldn't get into trouble, Naruto and Sasuke had left the village with clear instructions on situations like this. Only the two of them were able to deal with Ōtsutsuki members. The two were, after all, partly Ōtsutsuki because they were the reincarnations of Indra and Ashura. The two were the strongest shinobi in the world and if these two couldn't win then no one could.

The fight was very long and hard, but together Naruto and Sasuke were able to win. But everything had its price. Naruto had to use a dangerous technique during his fight, using his own chakra as fuel. At the age of 30, he had just as many chakra as Kurama. To the normal shinobi, Naruto was a god in human form. He was the fourth to be called the God of Shinobi, after Hiruzen, Hashirama and Hagoromo.

At the end of the fight, Naruto's body lay on the ground and no longer showed any signs of life. Kurama was released at the same moment and unfortunately Sasuke could no longer do anything for his best friend. The two were separated during the fight and each had to take on an Ōtsutsuki themselves. He himself had fought Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki and Naruto had fought Isshiki Ōtsutsuki.

Sasuke had also lost his right eye in the fight against Momoshiki and so he only had his Rinnegan eye. He no longer had his normal Sharingan and was completely at the end of his strength.

By the time Sasuke got to Naruto, he was already dead. Kurama had tried to sacrifice himself, but Naruto wouldn't allow it. He had told him that he would not allow anyone to sacrifice themselves for him again. Since Neji sacrificed himself for him in the war, he hadn't allowed something like that to happen again.

After Naruto died, he had no regrets and smiled. He was ready to see his family again on the other side, knowing that the village was safe, and the others were safe and sound.

When Naruto opened his eyes, he never expected to see his mother and his father again. Of course, he had expected to see both his parents again, but not in the way he did.

He quickly understood that he was a baby again. He couldn't speak, his body didn't obey him as it should, and both of his parents did typical things with a baby. Within a few weeks he realized that he had somehow been reincarnated into an unknown world. It wasn't his old world, and neither of his parents seemed to remember anything. The two were called Minato and Kushina Uzumaki, they looked alike and had the same personalities, but they didn't seem to remember anything.

Was it possible that he was here in another dimension? He had studied a lot of fūinjutsu (Sealing Jutsu) in his old life after the war and space/time theory too. After all, he wanted to master his father's famous Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder God Technique). The talk of alternative dimensions often came up.

He had also noticed straight away that there was no chakra in this world. There was something different and since the people of this world spoke the same language, he was able to find out a lot. While he was still a baby and his parents and maids looked after him, magic was often mentioned.

Everyone around him had this magic, he could feel it. It felt pretty similar to chakra and from what he could understand had very similar functions. He still had chakra but since he was a baby again, it was nothing compared to what he had at the end of his life. He still had all the knowledge about everything he could do but he would need to begin from zero in his training. There was also the fact that he didn't feel Kurama inside of him. That really meant he was reborn alone without his longest friend and partner.

Physical Enhancement was the most basic form of magic in the world. With varying degrees of ability, magic allowed the human body to went beyond its normal limits and achieve amazing feats. Another basic use of Magic in the new world was Equipment enhancement. All types of equipment exhibit conductivity with magic. Knights from the new world used their Magic to strengthen their swordsmanship.

It quickly became clear to him that there were no shinobi or ninja in this world. Everyone used a sword to fight. He could tell all this from all the conversations he listened to as a baby.

But as a baby there wasn't much more to it than that and he would have to wait until he got older. However, even as a baby he did some things when he was alone. He had managed to stand upright, even though normally it wouldn't have been possible. This was all only possible because he had the experiences from his old life.

His muscles of course didn't have the muscle memory of his old body, but his brain knew it and so he was able to quickly get his body to produce the motoric skills that normally came much later.

"Naruto!" his mother shouted. A few years had now passed, and Naruto was now 10 years old. He enjoyed living with both his parents. Even if they weren't his real parents, he still saw them as mother and father. Both of them were really just like his real parents with the only exception that they knew nothing of the old world.

The Uzumaki family was a baron family that lived in the provinces and thus Naruto was even a noble in his current life. He had learned a lot, trained a lot and accomplished a lot in his first 10 years. He planned to live a peaceful life with his parents this time. He had experienced a lot in his old life and had enough struggles. He had decided to take advantage of this new opportunity and enjoy his life without fighting too much.

Having to begin from zero was a refreshing experience. Since he knew how to train correctly and what he needed to do and how everything worked, his progress was nothing compared to his old life. In his old life he couldn't even make normal clones at the age of 10. Now… let's say he had most of his abilities back when it came to his normal ones. Kage Bunshin (Shadow Clones), Rasengan (Spiral Sphere), Elemental Jutsus, Fūinjutsu, basic Jutsus like the Shunshin (Body Flicker), Kawarimi (Substitution), Henge (Transformation) and other jutsus he knew at the end of his life. Since he didn't have his partner anymore, KCM was out of his reach no matter what he would do and since for the Sixth Path Sage Mode the chakra off every Bijū (Tailed Beast) was needed, that was also impossible.

When it came to Sage Mode… he didn't accomplish this yet. He was still training in this area but in the future he would sooner or later accomplish Sage Mode as well.

But that was enough for him for the moment. In his first 10 years in the new world, he had accomplished more than he actually intended to in such a short time. At least he wasn't forced to train because an organization of S-rank shinobi were after him. He could enjoy his life and train at a pace he wanted.

"I'm coming!" Naruto shouted. He put on his orange shirt and brown pants. The clothing looked like it was from the Middle Ages with the shirt and brown trousers. He also had a brown belt around his pants to keep them from slipping off his body. For his 10 years, Naruto's body was in good condition. He had started to strengthen his body at an early age and that is why he had hardly any fat on his body. He had always done his personal training in secret because he didn't want to be asked by either of his parents how he knew and could do certain things.

He put on his brown boots and then went out of his room. In his room there was a large double bed with a large wardrobe, a desk with a wooden chair in front of it and a chest of drawers. On his wall were some picks where his swords hung.

In this world it was normal to wield swords. They were different swords than in Naruto's old world. In his old world it was mostly katanas that were used; apart from special swords such as the swords of the 7 swordsmen of the hidden mist.

In the new world, the normal design of swords was a 1-handed broadsword. He hadn't done much with swords in his old world because he relied more on taijutsu and ninjutsu than kenjutsu. Kenjutsu was always Sasuke's domain and not Naruto's. But through his father and mother, Naruto learned everything he needed about sword fighting in this world.

But even after all the training, his strength was more in Taijutsu than Kenjutsu. At the end of his life in the elemental nations he was one of the best Taijutsu user. He could even keep up with someone like Lee or Ōtsutsuki members.

But that wasn't so important because his mother's divine food was waiting for him. He left his room and ran down the stairs that led to the large dining room. As the son of a baron family, life was pleasant. Especially because there were also a few maids and even guards who took care of everything. This meant he could truly enjoy life to the fullest.

In addition, his family lived in the provinces and was therefore not directly in the capital. At least there was still enough nature in the province, which was what Naruto liked most. He was always in nature during his secret training.

As he walked down the stairs, he only had to take a few steps before a maid opened the door on the right for him, giving him access to the dining room. The dining room was like any other in a noble family. An elongated room with a long table in the middle and lots of chairs around it.

The table was made of a special steel and shone in a white hue as the sun shined through the windows. It was exactly the same with the chairs. They were all made of a special steel, which was painted white, and black cushions were also incorporated into the seats . They were very comfortable chairs, almost like Naruto's old leather chair in the Hokage's office.

"Hello dad, mom," Naruto said with a smile.

Minato Uzumaki smiled at his 10-year-old son. "Hello son, I hope you slept well." said the head of the Uzumaki. Minato Uzumaki was a renowned swordsman in Midgar. He had even won a special tournament in the past and so he had gotten a lot of fame.

"Hello Naruto, come sit down," Kushina Uzumaki said with a smile. As always, her face radiated nothing but warmth.

Minato sat in front of the head and Kushina to the left. Naruto sat down to his father's right and immediately afterwards the food was served. While the Uzumaki family was eating, his father brought up a topic.

"Naruto, would you like to continue your training as usual or now learn the advanced techniques?" Minato asked.

Naruto chewed something briefly before swallowing the food. He looked his father in the eyes and said, "I want to continue training the basics." Naruto said. He was already good at the basics when it came to sword fighting. But he didn't want to rush anything and preferred to master the basics as much as possible. In his old life he had neglected the basics for a long time and because of that he had problems for a long time. This time he did it right, no matter what it was about.

"All right, then today we'll continue as usual and train the basics." Minato said with a smile. He thought it was okay that his son wanted to master the basics as best he could. The basics were basics for a reason. Everything was built on the basics, no matter what it was about.

Kushina smiled at the interaction between her son and her husband. She was truly blessed to have such a husband and son. When she was younger, she had lost her entire family by the time she met Minato. He had saved her from some robbers and from then on, she fell in love with him. It was a wonderful time from there on. He was always at her side, like her, he no longer had parents and with great effort the two of them had achieved noble ranks together. Over time, both became renown sword masters.

Kushina herself was known as the Crimson Princess of Ruin. She always had a certain temper, and it sometimes came through her red color, when she concentrated and used her magic, she was given that name. Whenever her temper ran away with her and the red color of her magic surrounded her, she always wreaked havoc. No opponent got away when she was in that state.

A few hours later, Naruto had finished his training with his father and was about to leave his family's mansion. After training with his father, he would always get ready to go out into nature to do his own much harder training.

He had his sword on his left side in a brown sheath, which was attached to his brown belt. As he walked through the forest to get to his usual spot, he saw a red light in the distance. He remembered that in that direction there was a small, abandoned village with 10 houses. The small, abandoned village was no longer used by anyone and was actually just left to its fate.

He narrowed his eyes 'This is no normal fire. Are there any robbers there?' Naruto thought to himself. It was normal in this world to see robbers every now and then, especially in the provinces. It wasn't as common in the capital, but out here in the provinces it wasn't as rare as you might think. Robbers repeatedly attacked traveling merchants and stole their goods.

Naruto ran off, still completely fit. Even without Kurama he was a stamina monster even at the age of 10. Through his training to this point his chakra reserves also sky rocket and therefore he had more stamina that every living child in the new world. His Uzumaki genes also played a role into this.

He jumped onto a tree and began to tree hop towards the abandoned village where the red light came from.

After just 2 minutes he arrived at his destination. He landed behind a tree and looked around the tree. As he already thought, some robbers were there and had attacked traders. There was a big fire because one of the traders' carriages was burning.

The abandoned village had 5 houses in a straight line and exactly the same in parallel. The abandoned houses had white walls, although moss could now be seen on the walls and some cracks. The roofs of the houses were red. Most of the windows were no longer there and the wooden doors were also missing.

Naruto saw a total of 10 robbers who were currently laughing, drinking and talking. They were clearly drinking alcohol; Naruto could smell it. Through his intensive training so far, his senses had sharpened, and he could see, hear, smell, taste and feel better than other people. He had even gained a kind of sixth sense from his intense training with his body. Through various training methods, he had often pushed his body to the brink where his survival instincts would actually take over.

He could understand a few words of what others were saying, even from a great distance. 'It looked like the traders were on their way to the capital.' Naruto thought to himself. He jumped onto a branch from the tree and crouched down. The sun was already setting and so many shadows could be seen in the abandoned village where the robbers were currently. 5 of them sat around a small campfire and the others searched through the boxes and goods of the dead traders.

Naruto wouldn't approach this problem like a normal knight. He was still a shinobi and although he didn't fight and act like a real shinobi for most of his old life, he learned it from Kakashi and Yamato after the events with the moon and Hinata's kidnapping. He was probably the strongest shinobi back then, but he couldn't yet do what made a real shinobi: espionage, infiltration and other things.

Out of nowhere, Naruto held a kunai in his hand that he had made himself. He was really glad that he still learned to blacksmith in his old life. He met a blacksmith through his father, where he went every now and then and forged a few things. He had often used the forge while the owner was away and made the kunai there.

Naruto could simply drop down from the tree and fight the robbers openly, but that wasn't the way he was taught by his teachers. Before he became Hokage, he was on many S-rank missions where he had to get used to this method and from then on, he only fought like that in most cases. Of course, only during his time as a jonin before he became Hokage. As Hokage, he no longer had to fight like that because he was just in the village or meeting with other Kage to discuss peace.

He didn't have many kunai with him, but the kunai were more than enough for the 10 robbers. He threw a kunai and then held 2 more in his hand. He threw them too and then disappeared from his position in a flicker.

"This will be a feast!" said a robber.

"What you can bet on! We even managed to get our hands on a famous art painting! In the capital it will cost a lot of money!" replied another robber. Both of them were checking the goods that the traders had with them.

Neither of them noticed the 2 deadly weapons that were flying through the air and were about to pierce their bodies. 2 seconds later, before another robber could say anything, the two robbers who had been talking to each other got big eyes.

They both felt something sharp enter their neck and sever the carotid artery. They both screamed in pain as a kunai was lodged in each robber's throat. All the robbers became aware of the screaming and immediately stood up and ran to their comrades.

Both robbers lost a lot of blood and fell to the ground, both hands trying to stop the blood from escaping their necks. A lot of blood sprayed around through the fatal wound on the neck.

Before the 5 robbers at the campfire had even taken 5 steps, Naruto appeared with his sword drawn behind one of the 3 remaining robbers who were checking the goods. His sword was surrounded by a blue glow before he thrusted it forward. The sword entered the robber's back and appeared from the chest. The robber's heart was destroyed and before anyone knew it, Naruto had already pulled his sword out of the robber's body and charged towards the next one. He held another kunai in his other hand and threw it in the direction of the other robber. He was surprised that he could use wind chakra with the materials from this world. It was a gamble if it would work or not since mana was usually used in combination with the materials from this world, not chakra like he did right now.

The merchants' wares were around the corner of a house and the campfire was not in sight. By the time the 5 robbers ran around the corner from the campfire, it was all over. All 5 robbers were on the ground, lifeless and no longer moving.

"What the hell?" asked a robber with a dagger in his hand.

"Ask your Creator," said an ice-cold voice behind him and before he could react, the tip of a sword came out of his chest and his eyes lost the light of life. The sword was pulled out of the body and now the remaining 4 robbers could recognize the attacker.

"A child?!" a robber asked in a horrified voice. How could one child wipe out all his comrades? There weren't many children around with golden hair. It was immediately clear who was standing in front of the four robbers.

The only son of the Uzumaki family, Naruto Uzumaki. He didn't have the reputation of a genius like the eldest daughter of the Kagenō family, but he was said to still have talent and achieve everything through hard work.

"You little bastard!" said another robber with a gun in his hand. The firearms in this world were still quite primitive and the weapon the robber was holding could only fire one shot at a time before the weapon had to be reloaded.

He aimed at Naruto and pulled the trigger. A loud bang was heard before a small metal projectile came out of the small gun and raced through the air. Naruto just stood there, unimpressed and not moving.

The robbers thought that was it. The projectile hit his body but instead of Naruto's screams the robbers heard nothing and could only widen their eyes. Naruto's body was flickering like he was some kind of illusion before he simply dissolved into nothing.

The robber with the gun in hand looked around, searching for Naruto. He couldn't believe that Naruto simply dissolved as if he wasn't real. He never saw something like that before in his life.

The robber's eyes widened when shouting could suddenly be heard behind his back. He looked behind him and could only see all his comrades falling to the ground, with cuts all over their bodies. Naruto stood behind the falling robbers and looked the last robber in the eyes.

"Was that it?" Naruto asked in a deep voice. Far too deep for a child and so threatening that it made the robber shudder. His entire body began to shake, and he could no longer breathe. It was as if an invisible force was choking him off. Naruto made a motion with his hand and immediately afterwards his last kunai flew through the air and hit the last robber in the chest, causing him to fall to the ground. The blue glow around Naruto's sword vanished when the last robber fell to the ground.

Naruto looked around and as he did, his face returned to normal. He had already murdered enough people in his old life and that's why the sight of blood no longer bothered him. A lot became clear to him during the war, when he killed many of his opponents and many of his comrades also died.

Naruto swung his sword once, causing the fresh blood to fly from the blade and hit the ground. Naruto put it back in its sheath and looked around. He would have to make sure that there wasn't a surviving trader or robber nearby.

But before he could look properly, he heard a strange noise from a cage that was in an overturned carriage. He went to the cage, which was covered by a blanket. He pulled the blanket off the cage and raised both his eyebrows.

In the cage was a kind of lump of flesh that had a deformed mouth and blue eyes. 'Demon possession ?' Naruto thought to himself. He had already heard about this incidents where female humans, elves or beastkin were afflicted with a strange disease that caused their bodies to begin to rot away until they died.

He never thought he would find a victim of this disease in the province. Apparently, the disease was already in its final stage. This pile of rotting flesh was no longer recognizable as human.

Something red-black flashed briefly and then disappeared again around the lump of flesh. Naruto raised both eyes as he felt it. 'That was…' Naruto narrowed his eyes and stuck a hand into the cage, right in front of the pile of rotting flesh. He was still in training this, but he managed to get something down that he couldn't even do in his old life. Green chakra surrounded his hand, before it traveled through the air a bit and touched the pile of rotten flesh. 'Maybe this works on those victims… I can only hope. I have no idea if I can even heal someone who doesn't have chakra inside of their bodies.'

The pile of rotten flesh reacted pretty insane on the touch of the medical chakra from Naruto. It stretched and simply blasted the cage away. Naruto stopped the jutsu immediately, thinking he would inflict even more pain than the poor thing already had to deal with.

The pile of rotten flesh calmed down and reduced itself to its original size. "Can you hear me?" asked Naruto. He looked into the blue eyes that were visible on the pile of rotten flesh. He really wanted to help this victim, but he didn't know how. That was some rare disease that was said to be uncurable. He wanted to try medical ninjutsu but as he just saw… it didn't work like he hoped it would.

'What should I do?' thought Naruto. Again, flashed something red/black around the pile of rotten flesh. Naruto narrowed his eyes again when he felt it. 'Mana just came out of the victim. What was it called? I think magical overload?'

He got an idea and raised his orange shirt before he touched his stomach. A black seal became visible before a scroll, ink and a brush became visible. He rolled the scroll out in front of himself and took the brush before he dipped in in the ink that became visible. He began to draw circles, lines, he even wrote something on the scroll before he draws a difficult pattern around the word he just wrote. It was all just theory, but he could try to seal the mana that came out of the body of the victim of this disease. After 10 minutes of concentration, he was finished. He looked over his work and tried to find and form of mistake. Just a little mistake could kill the person in front of him. He didn't want that to happen.

If this wouldn't work… he would try one last thing that came to his mind before he would take the victim and bring it to the church like someone usually did. He simply wanted to try everything he could do before he would bring the pile of rotten flesh to the church.

He took a deep breath before he began a long series of hand signs. 50 hand signs later and he clapped his handy together before he placed both hands on two specific places on the scroll. The seal began to glow white, and Naruto concentrated his chakra into the seal. He closed his eyes, trying to feel the mana that he could feel from the victim.

The black/red mana flashed again around the pile of rotten flesh but this time it didn't disappear just like that. The red/black mana that came out of the pile of rotten flesh began to twist and turn as if something was pulling on it. Naruto simply concentrated and focused a bit more chakra into the seal before visible red/black mana was being sucked out of the pile of rotten flesh in large amounts. It wasn't even funny how much mana Naruto was sucking out of the pile of rotten flesh right now. He simply hoped he wouldn't kill the person with this action.

After 2 minutes became the mana less and less before no more mana came out of the pile of rotten flesh. Well… a pile of rotten flesh wasn't right anymore. The more mana was sucked out and sealed, the more the pile of rotten flesh transformed. Naruto saw how a fragile arm became visible at first when the rotten flesh turned back and transformed into a normal arm again. After that it was pretty quick. The rotten flesh turned back into the body from the victim from her arm to every other part of the body.

Naruto could now see how the person under all that rotten flesh looked like. It was a young girl probably in his age group. She had long golden blond hair just like Naruto himself. If the blue eyes that were visible on the pile of rotten flesh were any indicator, then he would bet a lot on the fact that this girl would also have blue eyes. She wasn't a human now that he saw the ears from the young girl in front of him. He never saw one before but before him was a young elf girl.

Naruto took his hands of the seal and made 5 more hand signs before he finished in the tiger sign, saying, "Fūin!" (Seal). The seal glowed again before it calmed down and became black. Naruto sighed in relief that his plan worked. It worked even better than he first thought. He rolled the scroll up and sealed it into the seal in his stomach. He stood up and took 4 steps forward to examine the young elf girl.

He checked her condition and got wide eyes. He could hardly feel a pulse and she wasn't breathing anymore. He immediately began to use medical ninjutsu on her to try to save her. 'Shit… I guess I have sucked too much mana out of her. Dammit!'

He looked at her face and couldn't see a change at all at her painful face. He got sweat on his forehead while he concentrated on the medical jutsu. It was really taxing to use a medical ninjutsu and dangerous. If he would lose concentration, then he would harm the girl more than he would help her.

'I guess I have no choice but to try it…' He thought back to the story every shinobi knew. How the sage of sixth paths spread the chakra in the world by sharing his chakra with humans that didn't have chakra at first. It made them stronger automatically and gave them more life.

He stopped his medical ninjutsu and placed both hands on her naked stomach. Oh yeah… the girl was completely naked in front of Naruto. But that wasn't important right now. Naruto remembered back when he almost died in the fight with Madara and met Hagoromo. Before he got the Sixth Path Chakra from Hagoromo, he told Naruto his story and how he spread chakra. Naruto was interested in this and asked how he did it exactly. It wasn't just holding the hand from someone and letting chakra flow into them. It was a bit more complicated than that.

Naruto knew what he had to do, and he was happy that he had all the right tolls to do just that. He closed his eyes and began to transform his chakra into the body from the young elf girl. The process was a bit complicated, so he didn't want to waste his time explaining it right now.

Naruto could already feel how the chakra inside of the girl began to spread in her body. One thing was important in that procedure… Naruto had to create with his own chakra a chakra network inside of the body of the young girl, so the chakra had somewhere to belong. Without the chakra network it would simply flow through the girl, out into the world. That was a specific branch of Yang Chakra Manipulation he learned when he got the sixth path chakra.

Even when he didn't have sixth path chakra anymore, he still knew how to manipulate yang chakra precisely. It took him an entire hour to build up the chakra network inside of the young girl, but he could already feel the more he made progress, the more life came back to the young girl. He took his hands off her and leaned back on both hands.

Even when he already had a large amount of chakra… this procedure was really taxing and someone with less chakra would have died in the process because it simply was so draining for the user. He laid back onto the ground to catch his breath and to relax a moment.

After a few minutes did he relaxed enough. He raised himself again and checked the condition form the girl again. He sighed in relief when he felt her strong heartbeat and her constant breathing.

He sat down beside the young girl and looked up into the sky. He was glad he managed to help the girl and to save her from death. It was a good feeling to do something again that was a bit more challenging after 10 years in this life.

He could hear the young girl beside him shifting and mumbling something to herself. Naruto stood up and in a poof of smoke appeared a black cloak in his hand. He laid it over her body and just in time before the young girl supported herself on both arms, opening her blue eyes.

"Huh?"

(A/N Hello everyone out there! I am back… with another version from Golden Spellsword… XD. I don't know what to say… I had stress in my private life and couldn't write anything. I only uploaded one chapter from Golden Sage's Maelstrom in what time… 4 month? I don't even know. I read through Golden Spellsword and didn't know what I had in mind when I wrote the story. So here is another version with Naruto actually having chakra and thus making more sense in general.

Anyway, the first chapter was mostly the same beside the end and the fact that Naruto has chakra now instead of Mana/Magic. I hope you all enjoyed the first chapter, and we will see each other in the next one I upload.)
