I DON'T OWN NARUTO. IF I DID TOBI WOULD STAY A GOOD BOY

Last time on 'A Child of Legends'

A lone figure in a familiarly orange jumpsuit stands atop a large mountain with four heads carved in it "Has it been almost 8 years already. Konoha has barely changed"

"Well then Kit let's not waste any more time"

This time on 'A Child of Legends'

Naruto began to walk through the streets in a Henge active, making look like a regular civilian.

"Kit what are you doing, the Hokage's tower is back that way". "I know, I feel like some ramen. It's been forever since I've been to Ichiraku's". "What did I expect from you Kit"

As Naruto goes to Ichiraku he sits down and thinks "Even after all these years they have kept it all the same".

Ayame comes to the front "Hello sir, what would you like to order"

Naruto replies with "A bowl of tonkotsu ramen"

*twenty bowls of ramen*

Teuchi walks up to Naruto, holding a bowl. "Congratulations sir, for eating twenty bowls you get a free bowl of our newest ramen, the Uzumaki ramen". As Naruto gives a thanking gesture, he reaches to grab the ramen he notices that its twice as big and contains everything you could imagine for ramen. "That was amazing"

Teuchi chuckles "I'm glad you like". He then looks down sadly "This was made after our best customer. He went missing a long time ago. We only wish he could've tried it"

Naruto then releases his Henge, "This was the best ramen I ever had, don't tell anyone I'm here ok". Naruto runs off to Hokage tower though not before grabbing a wallet full of ryo and paying for his ramen, while he leaves two shocked people behind. "Ayame, is the ghost of Naruto haunting us".

In the Hokage tower Sarutobi Hiruzen works his way through a stack of paperwork. As he gets up to bring finished papers, dwarfed by the large stack of unfinished papers. As he looks over at the picture of his successor/predecessor Minato Namikaze he begins look at it sorrowfully. "I should have saved him, I only wish I could see him one last time so I could ask for his forgiveness"

"Hey Hokage-ojisan, how have you been doing" Hiruzen's eye being to bulge as he looks out his window to see an older version the same boy he was thinking of. "Naruto, is that really you"

"Who else could I be". "Naruto my boy, come have a seat. I'm sure I can put aside this paperwork for a bit, how about we go to Ichiraku" "Yeah, I just came from there"

Hiruzen begins to curse his luck "Even now I can avoid this paperwork" "Nevermind, where have you been. I was worried out of my mind, everyone thought you have either ran off or dead"

"Yeah, it's a long story, I can't tell it all because there are two, potentially three others I want to tell to save time, two of them I can't right now but the third is hopefully my jonin leader, that is you let me take the academy exam" Naruto says.

Hiruzen replies "Fine as long as you tell me who are the other people that you want to tell". Naruto "Oh great-aunt Tsunade and my Godfather Jiraiya". "What how do you know about that" Hiruzen says, looking clearly shocked. "Well I mean I know about Kushina and Minato, wait did I tell you that"

"Kit, you didn't, how can you forget to mention that, it is simple"

Hiruzen looks surprised, before he continues "I guess since you know that I can give you these". As Hiruzen walks over to the picture of Minato he lifts up the frame and releases a small pulse of his chakra as a safe opens up showing three scrolls covered in blood seals, two with the Namikaze symbol and one with the Uzumaki symbol. "In the first one contains all of Kushina's sealing techniques, in the second one contains all the possessions of the Uzumaki, Namikaze and the remaining Senju possessions"

As Hiruzen pauses, Naruto asks "And what's inside the third scroll". "In this scroll contains the greatest secret of the Namikaze Clan, their Kekkei Genkai the Jinton (Swift Release). "Tou-san had a Kekkei Genkai" Naruto said surprised"

After receiving this shocking news, Naruto was walking back to Madara's base, well walking out of sight so he could Hiraishin back. As he made it back he was interrupted from two familiar voices.

"Welcome back Honorable Naruto"

"Naruto-San, didn't you have an apartment in Konohagakure"

"I did White, but when you are gown for 7 and a half years it happens to be sold quite quickly, but never mind. Black why didn't you or Madara-jiji tell me that Minato had a Kekkei Genkai".

"Well it's complicated, the Namikaze clan has many dominant genes which caused problems with the also dominate genes of the Uchiha clan. Minato had the Namikaze clans gene win out meaning that he couldn't get the Sharingan. So when you unlocked your sharingan Madara thought that you couldn't inherit the Jinton, especially when you also bore the Mokuton. Eventually Madara did test for Jinton which came up positive but it was a year ago. He had no means of training and since he lived with the Namikaze's the Iwa-nin killed all except Minato.

"Well, shouldn't focus on the past. I need to think about tomorrow. Black help me with training, White go make some ramen for dinner.

*time skip brought to you by White Zetsu in an apron"

Two chunin examiner steps into class, one with brown hair and scar of his nose, and the other with long white hair and evil eyes.

Alright class we are going have 5 parts of the exam. Part A: Basic exam, we will be asking you for a Kawarimi, Henge and Bunshin, Part B: Ninjutsu exam, show us your best ninjutsu. Please note we aren't judging by strongest jutsu, but most effective in battle, Part C: Shurikenjutsu exam, we will be testing accuracy on 10 kunai and 10 shuriken, Part D: Genjutsu exam, we will put a simple genjutsu on you and see your reactions and Part E: Taijutsu exam, perform your best taijutsu attack. Same qualifications as Part B.

Suddenly a noisy blond boy burst into the class saying "The Godaime Hokage has arrived". The first instructor then speaks up "Ah yes, Naruto, sit down. We have already been through the test requirements you were late so you have to learn as we go on. Now sit down". Members of the class who knew Naruto before his disappearance began to chuckle, thinking he was the same dobe from before"

(Quick A/N: While he wouldn't have trained in the academy I'm going to say that the important people already know him)

The second instructor speaks up "Iruka, since Naruto was late shouldn't he go first for everything" while secretly scheming to use the blonde for Orochimaru's plans

"That is a good idea Mizuki" alright Naruto, get up here, "Ok Iruka sensei" Naruto smiled getting up "Now I want a Kawarimi, Henge and Bunshin in that exact order."

Naruto began by substituting himself with a pile of instant ramen he bought the night before and reversed it while thinking to himself "Is this the standards Konoha holds up its genin to". "Alright Naruto, Good so far"

Naruto then began to Henge, at first he thought he would just become Hokage ojii-san but had a better thought. Naruto then became an exact replica of Madara in his prime and began to evilly chuckle like Madara would. This caused Iruka and Mizuki to look on in shock at how Naruto's Henge was able to copy exact subtle details and voices, this level of Henge control wasn't expected for academy students, "Alright good accurate Henge and extra points for modified voice"

Naruto removed hid Henge and began to ask "Do I have to do a regular Bunshin or can I do any kind". Iruka responded "Sure, do what you like", still a bit rattled from seeing the level of his Henge. Naruto then begins to make hand signs Kage Bunshin no Jutsu and 10 identical Naruto's appeared

Iruka soon became startled, "T-ten Kage Bunshins. You can sit down Naruto" "Next up is Sasuke Uchiha"

Sasuke passed by Naruto smirking "Hah, 10 I can make more than double the amount of Bunshins dobe" while Naruto thinks "It doesn't matter how many basic Bunshins you make, currently you couldn't even make one Kage Bunshin"

*quick time skip brought by salty Sasuke"

"Alright now for Part B we have Naruto Uzumaki" said Iruka nervous of what might happen after his display in Part A

As Naruto steps up facing a training dummy he begins to think "Alright let's it them away, literally. Hmm I should probably do C-Class, that's probably Sasuke's limit, if I use B or above it would seem strange"

Tiger → Ox → Dog → Rabbit → Snake. Futon: Daitoppa (Wind Release: Great Breakthrough). The training dummy is torn to shreds and is sent flying across Konoha.

"Maybe I did overdid it a little bit" Naruto thinks. "You don't think Kit" everyone's favourite Bijuu replies

Iruka stands in shock, not expecting that much force "I-i'll just say that a 100% for ninjutsu"

Mizuki begins to think "I thought this kid could be manipulated, still he may serve another purpose"

*second short time skip brought by angry Sakura and her Killing Intent"

"Alright class, it's time for Part C, first up is Naruto Uzumaki" Iruka says shivering at Naruto's name. "Now Naruto, have you done target practice before" Iruka questions unsure if Naruto knows what to do

"I'm assuming it's the basic, get as close to the middle as possible" Naruto says, pointing to 10 targets.

Iruka nods and hands him 10 shuriken. Naruto takes one and performs a Shuriken Kage Bunshin no Jutsu and does the same with 10 kunai. Naruto thinks to himself "Even though I hit the bullseyes my accuracy wasn't that great. I only barely got a few in"

"Wow Kit, after all that training with Madara you must have inherited his extremely high standards"

Iruka blinks a few times before speaking "That's another 100%"

This time a banshee of a pink haired kunoichi speaks up "But Iruka Sensei, Naru-Baka barely got some of them in". Iruka respond "That is true but Naruto only used one kunai and shuriken, he could retake the shots he didn't do as good in". Sakura begins to sulk while thinking "Naru-Baka should teach that parlour trick to Sasuke-Kun"

*third short time skip brought by Hinata hiding in a corner"

"Alright Part D, you know the drill. Naruto get up here"

As Naruto walks up Mizuki talks to Iruka "Naruto seems to be strong. Since I am the the better genjutsu user of the two maybe I should be the one to put him under" and is given a simple nod from Iruka

"Alright Naruto-Kun time for your genjutsu" Mizuki say lightheartedly while in his head "With this Kinjutsu Orochimaru taught me Naruto will have my commands subliminally implanted"

Meanwhile in Naruto's perspective he could easily see through Mizuki's genjutsu while Kurama once again speaks up "How about before we cancel we put him under a second genjutsu"

Naruto begins to laugh and say "Kurama, I like how you think, Dog → Snake → Monkey → Ox → Tiger. Magen: Jubaku Satsu (Demonic Illusion Tree Binding Death) and I'll add a specific someone for more effect" Naruto says as he adds a copy of Hashirama Senju to his genjutsu"

Swapping back to the class they see Naruto standing peaceful and the work "KAI" as he breaks the ineffective genjutsu while Mizuki jumps back and is snapped out by Iruka. Mizuki realises what's happened and begins to put his fake persona back on "That was a really good genjutsu reverse, I wasn't expecting that"

Iruka feels himself trembling at the fact that Naruto was able to trick Mizuki but them speaks up "Another 100%, you might make top of the year for this exam"

Meanwhile a lazy pineapple haired boy begins to think "Something sort of training must have happened to turn Naruto from a hopeless to top of the class while we spent time thinking academy education would be good enough until we became genin. How troublesome"

*One last short time skip brought to you by Choji eating a bag of potato chips"

Alright this is the final exam. Each of you will be performing a taijutsu on one of our two volunteer Chunin Izumo and Kotetsu except for Naruto, who for the safety of our chunin will be attacking a metal training dummy"

Naruto begins to step step away from the training dummy. As he does this he hears a voice from his emo classmate "Look the dobe is too scared, maybe he should have gotten something weaker, like a clone of himself", which gets many laughs one of which is Naruto, "Hey dobe, did you finally realise how pathetic you are"

"Nah teme, just laughing at how little you know. I'm going to attack, it just works better with a bit more space. Then Naruto charges at the metal dummy with a barrage of kicks, Konoha Senpuu (Leaf Whirlwind). From this attack a cloud of dust forms. When is dissipates a perfectly fine Naruto stands next to a completely battered metal dummy

Iruka freezes for a second before speaking "A-another 100% for Naruto Uzumaki, thank God we god used the dummy" muttering the second part.

Meanwhile in the distance a kid, only one year older in a green bodysuit talks to himself "YOSH, THE FIRES OF YOUTH BURN STRONG IN HIM. HE WILL BE MY ETERNAL RIVAL OR I SHALL RUN AROUND THE VILLAGE 1000 TIMES"

*time skip brought to you by Mizuki finding Orochimaru's pedo magazines. What, I didn't say anything about non-short timeskips*

As Mizuki is running into the forest with the Scroll of Seals on his back, he thinks to himself "How easy could this be, now Orochimaru will give me the power and respect I deserve".

Mizuki quickly stops to see Sasuke Uchiha training in the woods. "Orochimaru said he wants a Sharingan, if I deliver Sasuke I'm sure that I will take the spot of Orochimaru's right-hand man". Mizuki then begins to perform a Henge, making him into Iruka

"Hey Sasuke, I saw how Naruto got better then you. I have a friend who can make you stronger"

Sasuke glares at him angrily "That teme got lucky. But more power could be useful for later. As the leader of the almighty Uchiha Clan you must tell me who this friend is"

"Well his name is Orochimaru, he is even stronger than the Hokage. He will give you all the power you'll need" and Mizuki begins to think "and will make you body his own you arrogant brat"

"One last question, do you think you are the only one who can to a Henge"

Mizuki jumps back and pulls out a fuma shuriken as he disperces his Henge and says "Come on Iruka, can't we bargon, you let me escape, and I'll spare you life"

"I guess we could, if I was Iruka" as the Sasuke Henge disperces to reveal Naruto instead.

"Well I guess it this has to be like this" as Mizuki disappeared into a smoke, as the real Mizuki throws a fuma behind him. Naruto activates his Sharingan, easily dodging the Fuma, and using an incredible burst of speed rush to Mizuki grabbing by the chest

"A fully awakened Sharingan, Orochimaru would have loved this, but it's a shame even with it you're so blind". Mizuki using this conversation to distract him while he finished his hand signs. Katon: Gōryūka no Jutsu (Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Release). As this attack hits Naruto, Mizuki begins to laugh maniacally before he here a voice "Did you forget, I have Kage Bunshins" Mizuki then feels the cold steel of Naruto's Uzushio katana against his neck.

As Iruka approaches Mizuki he sees Naruto against Mizuki, easily winning.

As Naruto sensed Iruka coming he deactivated his Sharingan

As Mizuki panics he finds one last way out "Now Naruto, would you like to why you were hated by everyone".

Iruka realising what Mizuki is going to do he yells out "MIZUKI YOU CAN'T"

Naruto begins to chuckles "It wouldn't happen to involve my birthday, the Yondaime Hokage and a certain fox, now would it"

Both Iruka and Mizuki panic that Naruto knows. Iruka for Naruto's sake and Mizuki for his wellbeing. Naruto then speaks up "For betraying the village for the nuke-nin Orochimaru, attempted kidnapping of the clan head an important bloodline, attempted murder of a civilian and breaking the law placed by the Sandaime I grant you the inability to perform hand signs" Naruto then swings his katana in a flash, cutting of both of Mizuki's arms and using a Medical Ninjutsu technique to have flesh grow over the wound.

Mizuki screams in pain before smirking "I can tell your secret you have" but Mizuki finds himself unable to continue. Naruto then speaks up "Oh yeah, I used that coercion genjutsu/kinjutsu so you couldn't spill by secrets" before knocking Mizuki out with the butt of his sword. "Hey Iruka-Sensei, bring him to the old man".

Iruka speaks up "T-thank you Naruto. Can I treat you to dinner for what you've done"

Naruto then turns back into his old bubbly self "Ichiraku Ramen, 8pm I'll see you there Iruka-Sensei"

*Time skip brought to you by Hiruzen and a mountain of paperwork*

As Iruka walked into class with a box of genin headbands, he began to think about last night. When he was first born he hated him, but after seeing him he began to feel sorry as he reminded him of his young self. Then he met the new Naruto, more serious but still Naruto

Meanwhile with our double-sided protagonist he is lying down in class. Sitting on a desk by himself at the back, far away from Sasuke, until he hears a voice

"Hey Naruto do you mind if we sit here"

He looks to see Shikamaru and not far behind Choji follows

"Yeah sure" Naruto said as he moved over

Choji hands over a packet of chips "You want some man"

"Yeah thanks Choji" He then chuckles "Don't worry I'll be sure to leave you the last chip"

Shikamaru begins to speak up "Hey Naruto you got a change of clothes"

Shikamaru points to Naruto's new clothes, his Shippuden clothing but instead of bright colours it mainly black with a few shades of dark grey with kanji for nine on the back , and a locket with Madara's EMS engraved on the front.

"Well, I'm a ninja now. I need proper clothes since I can't blend in with that orange monstrosity. Oh and before you asked this locket is a family heirloom I recently discovered".

"While we're talking I have a one more questions", "Fire away, Shika". "How did you get so strong. Last time we were together you were dead weight". Naruto gives of a small chuckle and a cryptic answer, "We are all affected by time, some more then others"

Before Shikamaru could ask any Iruka entered the class. Naruto began to lay his head down until he called his team

"Now before I start I bet you are wondering where is Mizuki, well unfortunately he was captured for betraying Konoha to work for the S-Rank nuke-nin Orochimaru". Naruto began to tune Iruka out until he heard something interesting. "Now this is a very special team this year Team 7 has the top shinobi Sasuke Uchiha, top kunoichi Sakura Haruno".

This is met by a loud "YES SUCK IT INO-PIG" from Sakura and every other guy thinking "What poor soul will be on this team"

Iruka then continued "And our last member is an extra unique case, A student who for the first time since the Yondaime got a 100% on all parts of the Genin exam, but due to this years graduation being an average of all of exams through the school year and this student only joined yesterday he was the dead last Naruto Uzumaki"

This was met by a "COME ON, NOT NARU-BAKA" from Sakura and an angry glare with the patent Uchiha grunt from Sasuke towards Naruto.

"Kit, you don't know how sorry I feel for you right now, I mean the emo and the fan girl" Kurama says while bursting out laughing. "You know I can put you in a smaller, wetter, darker cave then you're in Kurama", "I'll shut up now ". "Good"

After 3 hours of waiting Team 7 were still the room. Sasuke was thinking of who knows what, Sakura was fawning over Sasuke and Naruto was thinking "Some interesting teams, Team 10 with an Ino-Shika-Cho, a team as old as the village itself and the incompatible Team 8: A shy heiress, a obnoxious wild beast and his dog and an antisocial bug man. Then again we're pretty incompatible ourselves"

Then a silver haired jonin wearing a mask over his face and a hitai-ate (forehead protector) over his left eye. "Hmm he looks familiar" As the silver haired jonin catches the eraser he that would've fallen on him, he throws it behind him. Triggering Naruto's plan which causes an overlooked bucket dangling on a kunai above the causing the kunai to fall and drenching him.

The silver haired jonin looks around, seeing the brooding Uchiha, the obsessive Haruno, and the pleased Uzumaki and speaks "my first impression, I hate you all". This gets a shocked look from Sakura, and angry glare from Sasuke and Naruto still puzzled at his identity "I'll meet you all on the roof

As the silver haired jonin Shunshin to the roof, Naruto stays behind so while Sasuke and Sakura walk he can Shunshin as well

As Naruto reaches the roof the silver haired jonin. The jonin begins to think "How can this academy student Shunshin, wait he's the jinchuuriki, the one who got the perfect score" only to be interrupted by Sakura and Sasuke.

Sakura then spoke up "Naru-Baka must have used another one of his parlour tricks like climbing the walls". Naruto responds "I assure you, I could but I didn't

The silver haired jonin decided to speak up "Alright let's start with introductions: names, likes, dislikes, dreams and goals"

Sakura then begins to speak again "You're our sensei, you should start"

"Hmm lets see, like most people I like some things, I don't like some things, I have a dream and a few goals. Oh yeah my name is Kakashi Hatake

As Sakura is surprised as "he only told us his name" Naruto panics "I thought I recognised him, he was otousan's apprentice. This could be bad.

Special Deleted Scene

Hiruzen Sarutobi woke up, one perk of being Hokage was having a bedroom with a great view. He opening his blind only to find Hokage rock covered in paint. Each one of the kages have a word written on them. Together it spelt 'Guess Who Is Back', "these next few years will be as the Nara's say troublesome"
