In this story, all Uzumaki had red-wine colored hair.
Multicross with other characters from Hoyoverse showing up in this story, probably other series too.
A boy of 7 years old with spiky red-wine colored hair and whisker-like birthmarks adorning his fatty cheeks, 3 on each side was rummaging through the garbage cans.
He was hungry and hadn't eaten for a week.
Due to his predicament, he was shunned by the villagers, and a drunken villager took his monthly expenses given by the old man known as the Hokage.
"Stupid dumbass villagers...hating me for no reason and calling me demon fox..."
He scowled before smiling, his grin broadened when he discovered some edible leftover food.
The child gobbled them up as fast as he could.
When he finished, the redhead burped and downed the water he stole from a shop.
"Why the hell did they throw away such good food? Don't they know there are people like me who need it badly?" He scowled before throwing the bottle to the trashcan and went out of the alley.
He proceeded down the street, attempting to ignore the villagers' glares and angry stares.
When he looked up, his eyes were drawn to something that matched the color of his hair.
A woman with odd clothing and red-wine-colored hair.
Naruto, the youngster, began to jog toward the woman.
There had been no one in the village with his hair color.
He knew this since he had explored all over it.
His heart raced, excitement brimming inside him as he began to run toward the woman.
The boy ignored all the yellings and the names spat toward him.
He didn't care about them.
And when he got closer to her, he found her very beautiful.
She wore a white dress shirt along with a black jacket that hangs off her shoulders. There was a silver butterfly pin on its left lapel, and on the back there was a large, spider-like pattern in the center, along with webs on both shoulders and a burgundy inside. There were also wine-colored straps with golden accents on both her jacket and thighs, and gloves of a similar shade. She wore black, high waisted shorts and nylon tights, with a thigh garter on her right leg. She also wore black boots with two different lengths: the right goes over her knee, while the left goes slightly over her ankle.
Naruto approached the woman as she walked, completely unaware of his presence.
He yanked one of her black jacket sleeves, prompting her to swivel around and glance around before ultimately looking down.
*badump*
The woman's heart pounded faster than it had ever before.
His round face, violet eyes, spiky red-wine hair like hers, and the whiskers on his cheeks.
The way he looked at her.
It made her heart race faster until one word escaped the boy's lips.
"...Mommy?"
The villagers were furious at what the redhead kid had done and were going to take him away to teach him a lesson when something unexpected happened.
The redhead woman knelt and drew him into a close hug.
Another man who had gone ahead of the woman noticed that his associate wasn't following him and was interacting with the inhabitants of this world.
He was a man with fair skin, long black hair with red tips, and red eyes.
The man wore an oriental-styled black tailcoat with red clothed insides and gray trousers. The tailcoat was embroidered with gold and dark blue colors, and he wore a black belt alongside a styled metal decoration on his left thigh. He also wore a black glove on his right hand, and bandages could be seen wrapped around his right arm, right thigh, and on his left hand.
The towering man approached his companion while glaring at anybody who dared to approach them.
"Kafka."
Kafka, the woman, rose up and turned to face her friend, Naruto in her hands.
"Bladie~ look, look, he's an exact copy of me~"
The man's red eyes were fixed on the youngster.
Naruto shot him a glare in return, fearing for his mother's safety.
"Listen to me, Bladie, no more glaring at the boy and we're taking him with us~"
"Grgh..."
Bladie grunted in acceptance.
"I don't like him..." Naruto grumbled in Kafka's arms. "He's not daddy, right mommy?"
Kafka chuckled sweetly before rubbing the boy's head.
"Now, now, Blade is my associate and no, he's not your daddy."
Seeing how the villagers' glares were directed at the youngster and the source of immense energy within him indicated that this boy was Uzumaki Naruto and was in possession of the Kyuubi that she had read about in Sam's reports and Elio's script.
He was an orphan, therefore it was not a problem for him to come with her.
Soon later, the three were surrounded by people wearing animal masks.
"By the order of the Hokage, you are to come with–"
The strange masked people were quickly slaughtered by Kafka's companion, with the exception of one woman with purple hair and a cat mask who managed to draw her sword in time.
Villagers ran away from the carnage.
Kafka managed to cover Naruto's eyes before Bladie killed them all.
With a small sigh, she chided her associate.
"Now, Bladie... why did you kill them? They just want to talk."
The man shook his head.
"No. All of them except one had killing intents toward the boy."
Though Kafka looked calm as usual, there was a slight twitch on her brow.
"Oh... really?"
Even the last surviving one gasped hearing the news before she shook her thoughts away.
"Naruto-kun!" the female masked ninja called out.
The boy perked up at the familiar voice though her eyes were still covered by Kafka.
"Neko-chan? Look! I found mommy!"
"She's not your mother, Naruto!"
"H-Huh?"
Kafka uncovered his eyes, letting the boy look at her.
"You're...not mommy?"
A brief second of silence until Kafka opened her lips.
"I'm sorry little one..."
The boy felt his heart broken with those five words.
"Oh..."
Her heart gripped in pain as she saw his expression before she swiftly added.
"I can be your family if you want to though."
Naruto's eyes regained their brightness.
"Really?"
Kafka nodded with a smile.
One moment he was cheerful, then he felt downtrodden again.
"But... the Hokage will definitely forbid you to take me in..."
A small laugh escaped Kafka's lips.
"Then we don't need to see this Hokage."
Kafka suggested much to Naruto's delight.
The boy bobbed his head.
He turned to the Neko ANBU.
"Sorry, Neko-chan... but I'm coming with Kafka..."
Seeing there was no way to persuade the boy knowing how hard-headed he could be when he decided on something, Neko sighed in resignation.
It was preferable to having him get shunned by the villagers and sometimes beaten because she couldn't be there all the time due to the blasted missions.
"Fine..."
She looked around, seeing no one else in the district and several ANBU were still too far from their location, Neko unsealed a scroll from the mark on her shoulder.
"Naruto-kun, this is a copy of your parents' will."
Neko walked forward to the woman and Naruto in her arms though she was still wary of the black-haired man.
"You...knew my parents?" Naruto asked apprehensively.
Neko nodded, a bit saddened at the betrayed look on his face.
"Yes. I was your mother's student, who do you think took care of you when you were just a baby?" Neko playfully asked, hoping the boy would forgive her for not telling his heritage.
Naruto nodded with a smile before the ANBU handed him the scroll.
"Just push a tiny bit of chakra like I taught you secretly into a large word inside it and everything your parents left for you will be transferred into this scroll from the original one."
Naruto nodded as he looked up at his caretaker who had removed her mask.
She placed a kiss on his cheek, causing the blonde to blush since he had never received such affection.
"My name is Uzuki Yugao, Naruto-kun...take care of yourself, okay? Grow up big and be a strong man."
The boy nodded sheepishly as Yugao put on her mask back.
Kafka found it irritating as she watched their interaction.
She believed that Naruto was only supposed to act like that toward her, not this girl.
"Are you done?" She asked, unamused.
Yugao turned at the woman and glared at her behind the mask.
"Please...take care of him."
"...I will."
"And I have a request for your companion," Yugao said while turning her head to the man who had been quiet all this time. "Inflict some wounds on me, it would look strange if It was only me who was unscathed."
Kafka nodded and Blade proceeded with her request with indifference.
He broke the sword on her hand and a large sword cut appeared on her abdomen.
"Neko-chan!"
"I-It's...okay, Naruto-kun...this wound is nothing..."
"Let's go, Naru." Kafka said before she nodded at the fallen girl who returned the gesture.
The boy looked at Yugao in worry before she promised that she would be fine.
Soon after, Kafka, Naruto, and her companion, Bladie or Blade, left Hidden Leaf Village, causing the Hokage a major issue due to the loss of his successor's child and Konoha's asset not that anyone knew about the former.
"So...this is the boy in the report?" a rough mechanical voice asked, the owner was clad in armor which had Naruto climbing on it.
"Yes."
"You're retiring soon then?" They asked as they felt Naruto knocking at the helmet.
"I guess I am."
"...I see." Their head tilted upward. "Mind taking him off my head?"
"Why would I? It is fun to see him so excited after leaving the planet." Kafka said with a smile.
"...Kafka."
She looked away.
Sighing at their companion's behavior, Sam looked at the boy on their shoulder.
"Come down, boy, you'll hurt yourself."
"Aww, okay..."
Hearing the tone of his voice, Sam ruffled the boy's hair as they helped him down on the floor before they turned and walked away.
Kafka swore she heard them squealing before she gave her attention to Naruto.
"Come here, Naru, I have someone I want you to meet."
"Okay, Kafka." He latched to her offered hand before the two left the briefing room.
Not far from there, they entered a hallway and entered one of the rooms.
Inside, there was a girl looking no older than 10 years old with long gray hair tied in a ponytail and matching gray eyes playing a video game.
"Bronie~"
"Not now." She pressed the buttons faster and moved the character she was using expertly.
"Aww~ but I can see that you're losing~" Kafka teased.
"..."
The character in the game she was playing was low on health until it got hit by missiles and died.
Sighing, she turned her gaming chair to face the door.
In front of her were Kafka, her...mother or something similar and a boy with the same hair color and violet eyes.
She tried to glomp the boy before Kafka pulled Naruto behind her.
"Now, now, Bronie, you'll scare little Naru here~"
"Oh, c'mon, let me hold him a bit!"
Naruto took a peek at the girl before waving at her.
"H-Hi?"
Bronie waved at him with a smile before looking at Kafka.
"I guess this means you're retiring?"
"I suppose I am, with little Naru, of course."
Bronie aka Silver Wolf, the super hacker known across the hacking world, was a super genius that almost had no contender. She was picked up by Kafka, Blade, and Sam a year ago for their quest.
She saw her as a mother and now that she was leaving, she had no other reason to stay with the rest.
"I'm coming with you."
"Oh?"
Well, this was unprecedented.
Elio never mentioned this.
Was this the unforeseeable future he told her?
Where everything was undecided after she picked up the boy he predicted?
Kafka smiled slightly.
"Very well, for now, I should take little Naru to bathe."
"I can do it, you do whatever you need to do." Bronie volunteered.
Kafka smiled though it was a bit restrained.
This cheeky girl.
"Thank you but no."
As the two had a stare off, Naruto looked between the two before he noticed a black cat touching his feet.
It looked up at him and gestured with its head to have the boy follow it.
He did.
It turned out, the cat was showing him where the shower was and how to use it
The feline also prepared a shirt and pants for the boy to wear from God only knows.
After quite a time, the two's argument wasn't over while Naruto was already done with his bath.
His stomach rumbled and the cat heard it.
The feline then gestured him to follow her to the dining hall.
There, Naruto sat with Blade, Sam and the Cat eating their dinner quietly as multiple robot maids took care of them.
"Where are Kafka and Silver Wolf?" Sam asked the man in front of him but a shake of his head was all he got.
Naruto had been wondering how in the world that the man in cool suit was able to eat since his face was covered until the attention shifted to him.
"O-Oh... Kafka is talking with her I think, the girl with silver hair, right?"
Sam nodded
"Then they're in this Bronie's room..."
"...I see..."
The quiet and awkward dinner resumed though Naruto didn't care about it and still ate with gusto since he never ate something so delicious.
It amazed both of them to see how much Naruto could eat.
Sam then ordered the robot maid to prepare more dishes until the boy requested a ramen which Sam had them made.
"He's drinking all those food instead of eating them..." Sam said, earning a nod from Blade.
Done with his feast, which ended up with 7 bowls of ramen and different kind of dishes, Naruto felt a bit sleepy.
The cat once again touched Naruto's leg.
He knew that the cat wanted him to follow, therefore he bid goodnight to Sam and Blade before leaving the dining hall.
"...bring me an Oak Cake Roll, please." Sam told the robomaid after Naruto was gone.
The cat brought Naruto to a spare room next to Kafka's and allowed the boy to rest.
It was until much later that Kafka noticed Naruto was gone from her side and she looked all over their base for him with Bronie's help.
The cat purposefully didn't tell them his location as it slept next to the boy.
