Well, here is chapter 2, finally, several things happened since the last chapter, I got sick, there were several birthdays and I had to study.
This chapter may be a little bad, because I didn't review it while I was writing, I had several changes of ideas while I was writing, and also I don't know fluent English, so I write in my language and use Google Translate.
At the end of the chapter there will be some curiosities about the story, about the characters, and I will ask you some questions.
Inside a large house in Konoha, Katsuo was shirtless, leaving his defined muscles visible, while doing push-ups using only one hand and a rock twice his size on his back.
"Training so early Katsuo-kun?" Miyu said as she entered the room with a smile.
"This is just the warm-up," Katsuo said seriously as he continued to do push-ups.
"It seems like you're determined to get stronger, why?" asked Yuna who had been there for an hour and watched Katsuo do his warm-up which would be considered intense training even for elite ninjas.
"That boy, Naruto, the yondaime's son, he was strong... strangely strong" Katsuo said as he continued to do push-ups.
Miyu smiles "That boy really surprised me, and it seems like he's much stronger than his brothers, but I don't think he's someone to worry about, we have our real power sealed so as not to draw attention, and even so you didn't fight him seriously"
"He wasn't fighting seriously either," Katsuo said as he switched arms to do push-ups.
"What?" asks Yuna confused.
"I saw, he was holding back, it seemed like he wanted to see my skills, and my attacks didn't seem to cause damage, and that's not all that intrigues me, after graduation I looked for more information, Naruto Namikaze Uzumaki, son of Kushina Uzumaki and Minato Namikaze, he is 12 years old, the second oldest of the 4 twins, he is not a jinchuuriki like Mito and Menma, he is known as the failed son of the hokage for not having an incredible talent like the others, his grades at the academy were terrible, and from what we could see, he seems to be immune to genjutsu, but he only knows basic jutsus, and can't do the cloning jutsu, he is very strong, fast and resistant, but he doesn't have a good taijutsu style, in fact his taijutsu was terrible... he never had a master, he focused on improving his physical capabilities" said Katsuo as he continued the push-ups.
After hearing that, Yuna and Miyu were silent for a few seconds, wondering if Naruto was really someone so strong to the point of worrying Katsuo. They didn't pay much attention to him, but they remembered that he was a short boy wearing an ugly orange outfit, who kept making stupid comments from time to time, paying more attention during the fight against Katsuo where Naruto showed his physical capabilities but little technique and little intelligence when he lost when leaving the circle.
"Well, I still don't believe he's a big problem, he's just an idiot with great physical strength" said Yuna.
Meanwhile at our protagonist's house...
"Why did she even faint?"
"Because she stood in front of the door for hours, you idiot! And where were you during that time?"
"punching Mizuki"
"what?"
"she's waking up!"
Natsumi opened her eyes, slowly waking up, and then realized that she was on the couch with her brothers next to her.
"Onee-san, I'm glad you woke up!" Mito said with a smile.
Natsumi sighed "I had a horrible nightmare, I dreamed that Naruto had become a ninja..."
"I became a ninja" said Naruto showing the bandana.
Natsumi fainted again.
"idiot" Mito said.
"What did I do?" asked Naruto confused.
"NARUTO DID WHAT!?"
Kushina's scream woke Natsumi and scared Mito and Menma.
"You're in trouble," Menma said smiling, pointing at Naruto.
"Ok" Naruto said, not caring.
Minato had called Kushina to his office to talk and inform her about everything that happened.
"Kushina please calm down" Minato said nervously.
"How do you expect me to calm down Minato? Our son stole the sacred scroll!" Kushina exclaimed.
"He didn't do it on purpose, Mizuki tricked him into stealing the scroll," Minato explained.
Kushina calmed down a bit.
"But even so, he should have said something before or suspected it," Kushina said.
"Kushina... we don't know Naruto very well... but we know he's stupid" said Minato.
"... yeah, that's true," Kushina admitted, "but won't he get in trouble for doing that?" Kushina asked worriedly.
"No, he has Iruka as a witness, he helped defeat Mizuki, and was tricked... and he is also the son of the Hokage" Minato explained smiling.
"But there's something strange about this... didn't you leave the scroll in a protected place?" Kushina asked.
"Yes, I knew the scroll could be dangerous, so I made sure it was as safe as possible, but Naruto managed to steal the scroll anyway..." Minato said seriously.
Kushina sighed "well I'm glad everything ended well in the end, Mizuki is locked up and Naruto didn't become a ninja"
"Ah, now I remember, Naruto became a ninja" said Minato.
Kushina fainted.
"...it could have been worse," Minato said.
Meanwhile at the Uzumaki and Namikaze family home, Natsumi woke up when someone threw water in her face, she saw her brothers.
"Now enough fainting" said Naruto holding a bucket.
Natsumi began to remember what happened, and with fear she looked at the bandana that Naruto was wearing, a real ninja bandana, what she feared had become reality.
(No... it can't be... my brother... my small and fragile brother... a ninja?) thought Natsumi worriedly.
"Onee-san, are you okay?" Mito asked.
Hearing Mito's voice, Natsumi realized that she was worrying her and managed to calm down.
"Yeah... I'm just tired..." Natsumi said.
"Great, now with that settled... how did you manage to become a ninja!?" Menma exclaimed, pointing at Naruto.
Naruto smiled confidently "by my incredible ninja skills, hehe"
...
...
...
"Did you steal that bandana?" Mito asked.
"Of course not!" said Naruto offended.
After that three days passed until the orientation, on that day the graduated students would be assigned to their teams, during that time, not many exciting things happened, Minato was busy working because of the graduation of the new ninjas, Menma seemed irritated that Naruto had become a ninja, and spent most of the time training, Natsumi was worried about Naruto having become a ninja, and Mito... she didn't seem to care, and Naruto himself was a little bored and anxious for the orientation, during that time he just did his daily training, ate ramen with Iruka, beat up an "elite jounin" and trained a child to master one of the most powerful jutsu ever created... oiruke no jutsu , the day had finally arrived, Naruto after having lunch and changing clothes Naruto put on his bandana, which he avoided using during these days so as not to get it dirty, now for the first time in years, the four Uzumaki Namikaze brothers were going to the academy together, wearing their bandanas.
"Why did we have to go with him?" Menma asked, pointing at Naruto.
"I'm here," Naruto said with a vein on his forehead that wasn't visible through the bandana.
"I thought it would be nice for the four of us to go together at least once," Natsumi explained.
Natsumi was anxious, this day would be important, she wanted to be on a team with all her brothers, but she knew it wouldn't be possible, she had studied enough to know that gennin teams were usually made up of 3 gennins and a jounin sensei, and she knew she couldn't choose the team members, and that it was more likely that she would be on a team with Menma and Mito, with her mother Kushina as sensei. Natsumi wanted to protect her brothers, but Naruto was her main concern, she wasn't blind or stupid, she remembered Naruto and Katsuo's fight and how Naruto demonstrated strength, speed and endurance, she noticed his physical performance in the last year, she noticed his other achievements in the graduation exam, but... she still worried a lot, unlike Mito and Menma Natsumi didn't know how strong and capable Naruto was, and it didn't help knowing that Naruto lacked genjutsu, ninjutsu, taijutsu skills, had no skill with any weapon, lack of attention, low intelligence, little Ninja knowledge... and much more left Natsumi worried, what if he got hurt?
"Natsumi?"
What if he is bullied by his peers?
"Hey, sister..."
What if his sensei doesn't like him and doesn't train him properly?
"Onee-san!"
What if they abandon him during a mission? What if he-
"ONEE-SAN!"
Mito's scream took Natsumi out of her thoughts, she looked back and saw Naruto Menma and Mito staring at her.
"We're already here," Naruto said, pointing to the academy.
"Oh... right... sorry" Natsumi apologized sheepishly.
She was normally serious, calm, and focused... unless it involved her brothers' safety, in which case she could easily lose her temper, get angry, and overthink things.
"I hope to be on Hinata-chan's team..." said Menma blushing and with a smile on his face.
"simp" Mito said as she walked away and headed towards the gym.
Natsumi sighed, she thought they could take advantage of the walk to talk, but she ended up getting distracted and didn't say anything, after that she, Naruto and Menma went in too.
(They're here...) Natsumi thought seriously, staring at Katsuo Miyo and Yuna
The children of the fourth hokage and the mysterious students stared at each other. Mito remembered the beating she received when fighting Yuno. Thanks to the fox's chakra, Mito was already 100% recovered, but she could have died or suffered serious damage. She turned red with anger when Yuno smiled. Menma was angry about what happened that day and frustrated to know that he could lose to those three who came out of nowhere, surpassed him in skills, and one of them almost killed his sister. Natsumi might not show it, but she really hated the three of them. Yuno wanted to seriously hurt her younger sister, something Natsumi would never forgive. She got a sense of how dangerous those three were when she fought Miyuki. Natsumi knew she couldn't win in taijutsu, and decided to give up her fight. Katsuo was another who showed great skill throughout the graduation exam, and in his fight against Naruto, Natsumi was sure that most of the academy students would have been defeated in seconds. She was happy that Naruto was strong. and resisted without any apparent problem, but Natsumi had realized that Katsuo was about to use a technique that seemed deadly on her younger brother, which irritated her, those three were really strong, stronger than the hokage's sons, and they weren't even at 100% power.
(Naruto Uzumaki... I can't see why Katsuo-kun is so worried about him, he managed to stay in that fight, but I don't think he's strong enough to be a threat to us) thought Miyu, staring at Naruto.
(Although it doesn't seem like it, he is incredibly strong, he doesn't have ninja skills, but he has superhuman strength, speed and resistance, if that punch at the end had hit me, I could have suffered a lot of damage and would have lost the fight...) thought Katsuo.
(What were the names of those three again?... well, it doesn't matter) Naruto thought before walking away, and sitting down in a seat next to Sasuke without realizing it.
The others also diverted their attention from the new students, and decided to sit down, unfortunately for Menma, Hinata was sitting next to Kiba and Shino, Shikamaru who had spent some time dozing when he woke up noticed Naruto and approached.
"But what are you doing here Naruto? You can't stay here unless you've graduated" Shikamaru said confused.
Naruto pointed to his headband "Do you see this? Do you see it? Open your eyes wide Shikamaru, don't you see my headband? We're going to be ninjas together, do you like this?" said Naruto with a smile.
(I think this is proof that miracles exist) Shikamaru thought.
"You know, I'm feeling great with it on my head, it's like it was made for me dattebayo" said Naruto.
Meanwhile, Hinata watched Naruto while smiling.
(so you graduated, how nice) thought Hinata smiling and blushing.
Suddenly the ground began to shake violently, and the sound of footsteps could be heard.
(Is this some kind of attack?) Yuna thought.
(an earthquake?) Yumi thought.
(oh no) Natsumi thought.
(Why did they have anyone to graduate?) thought Mito.
The door opened and two girls walked in, one blonde and one with pink hair.
"I got here first!" Ino and Sakura exclaimed, entering at the same time.
The two began to catch their breath after running to the gym.
"Looks like I won again Sakura" Ino said tiredly with a smile.
"No, you didn't win, I had to look back to see you, and my toe was right in front of yours," Sakura said.
"Why don't you stick that finger in your..."
(It's a good thing we're only here for a day, if I had to deal with them every day I would end up killing them both) Yuna thought.
(Why do girls like emos so much?) Menma wondered.
Sasuke always managed to attract the attention of girls (even without wanting to) something that always irritated most of the boys at the academy, Sasuke was handsome, popular, talented, and a large part of the girls at the academy were crazy about him, with few exceptions, for example, the new girls, Mito and Natsumi (something that Menma was grateful for) and Hinata, but unfortunately for Menma, Hinata was visibly interested in his twin brother Naruto.
(What am I missing?) thought Menma sadly.
Sakura stopped arguing with Ino and walked over to Naruto.
"Hey Naruto, could you kindly move over so I can sit next to Sasuke-kun?" Sakura asked gently.
"Oh, okay, I'll stand up and give you my seat so you-" Before Naruto could stand up or finish his sentence, Sakura grabbed him.
"Thank you Naruto, you're a good friend" Sakura said before throwing Naruto to the other side of the room "Hi Sasuke... can I sit next to you?" Sakura asked blushing.
(how delicate) thought Naruto, standing up.
Ino walked over and grabbed Sakura's arm.
"Get out of here you big forehead, I'm going to sit on Sasuke!" said Ino.
...
...
...
"Didn't you mean 'sit NEXT to Sasuke?'" Sakura asked.
"No," Ino said smiling.
(They are 12 years old...) Naruto thought.
And then more girls appeared wanting to sit next to Sasuke, generating another argument.
(lucky emo) thought Menma and Kiba.
(what a drag...) pensou Shikamaru.
Meanwhile, they were being watched by Minato, Hiruzen and other jounins, who were gathered in a room and observing everything through the crystal ball.
"One of the most promising students, Sasuke Uchiha, isn't that him?" asked an extra.
"Yeah, he's the extra," Minato said.
"He is the only survivor of the Uchiha clan," said Kurenai.
"Exactly," Hiruzen said.
Kushina noticed someone who caught her attention, remembering what Mito had told her the other day.
(Katsuo Uzumaki... is he really an Uzumaki? How many are there left?) Kushina thought.
Meanwhile, Kakashi Hatake's attention was on another student.
(Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze, the failed son of the hokage... I'm excited to see what he can do) Kakashi thought.
...
Meanwhile Menma grew tired of watching Sasuke get so much attention.
(emo idiot...) Menma thought, getting up and walking towards Sasuke.
(he's going to do something stupid...) thought Mito.
(Please Menma, don't...) Natsumi thought.
Sasuke who was ignoring the girls around him as usual redirected his attention to Menma who had climbed onto his desk and was staring at Sasuke closely with their faces only 2 centimeters apart.
(what deja vu) thought Naruto.
Mito, realizing that something funny was going to happen, took out her ninja phone and pointed it at Sasuke and Menma, the girls around began to complain to Menma to stop staring at Sasuke.
(this will be worth gold) thought Mito with a smile.
(Why are they so obsessed with him? There's so much this guy has) Menma thought.
(hehehe... two guys staring at each other closely... I think they need a little push) thought a student who was sitting in front of Sasuke, while smiling, he stood up a little "what a great day" he said before giving Menma a light elbow in the butt making him go forward "sorry, did I hurt you?" asked the student with a smile.
The entire room fell silent, while almost everyone watched Menma and Sasuke, who thanks to that elbow, the two ended up kissing.
...
...
...
"PFFT HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" Mito couldn't help but laugh after that, how great that she recorded that, and now she was taking pictures.
Menma and Sasuke separated, spitting, trying to get the taste of each other's lips out of their mouths.
(idiots) thought Katsuo.
(This is very familiar) Naruto thought.
(My brother's first kiss) Natsumi thought with a smile.
(I-I... I'm going to die... I can't hold it in...) Mito thought as she laughed.
"Wow, I didn't know Menma liked bananas," Chouji said.
"I always suspected," Shikamaru said.
Unfortunately for Menma, the girls were not happy about Menma stealing Sasuke's first kiss, and he ended up getting a beating.
...
While Minato, Hiruzen, and the jounins watched this, Kakashi commented.
"So... Menma is gay" said Kakashi.
"Kakashi, he didn't-" Kurenai couldn't finish speaking because Kushina interrupted her.
"So that's why he was so stressed these past few years? Did he think we wouldn't accept him?" Kushina said worriedly.
"Kushina-san-" Kurenai was interrupted again.
"We'll have to talk to him later, he's our son and we accept and support him" said Minato (well, we should have done that with Naruto before too)
"I don't think, that-" and again Kurenai was interrupted.
"We're going to have a family meeting when we get home," Kushina said.
"We should-" and again Kurenai was interrupted.
"But it was Sasuke who left, maybe Menma was just testing him" said Hiruzen.
"To tell you the truth, I always suspected that Menma really liked bananas," said Kakashi.
"Can we PLEASE get back to the topic of teams?" Kurenai asked.
"Oh, yeah, sure," Minato said.
Asuma approached Kakashi and whispered.
"I think she's kind of homo-" this time Asuma was interrupted.
"I heard that Asuma"
...
Meanwhile, without anyone knowing, there was a man watching the ninja academy. This man was tall, wearing a red shirt, black pants, black sandals, and a white cloak with a hood covering his hair, casting a shadow that hid his face.
"So this is where Katsuo-san is... I never thought he would go to Konoha, what could he be planning?" said the man as he stared at the academy.
...
(He's here...) Katsuo thought.
Beside him, his fiancées also seemed to have noticed, while Natsumi managed to save Menma from continuing to be beaten by Sasuke's fans.
(I can't believe that was my first kiss, and in front of the whole class!) Menma thought as she cried comically.
"It's okay Menma, there's nothing wrong with you, we accept you the way you are" Natsumi said to comfort her brother.
"I'M NOT GAY!" Menma shouted angrily.
"Denial is the first step," Mito said smiling as she typed on her ninja phone.
"SHUT UP!!!" Menma shouted.
Meanwhile, Sakura was next to Sasuke and Naruto was next to Sakura, Naruto was reading a manga, called Dragon Power, Sakura was looking at Sasuke, and Sasuke was ignoring Sakura, and focusing on his thoughts, it wasn't long before Iruka arrived.
"Well guys, I'm proud, from today onwards everyone is a ninja, to get here, they went through many tests and challenges, but this was nothing, what will come will be much more difficult, now there are only genin, the first ninja level, all genin will be grouped, in teams of three, each team will be led by a jounin, an elite ninja" explained Iruka.
The mention of teams caught the attention of most former students.
"Teams of three? So someone will be on Sasuke-kun's team, who will it be?" Ino said with a smile as she looked at Sakura.
"I don't know," Sakura said, looking at Ino.
(CHA! I'M GOING TO STAY WITH SASUKE-KUN, STAY AWAY YOU WITCH!) Inner Sakura exclaimed.
(Teams of three? That'll slow me down...) Sasuke thought.
(teams of three, it could be Hinata who is cool despite being a bit weird, it could be Shikamaru... well, as long as they aren't my brothers, Sasuke or Sakura I'm fine) thought Naruto.
(It would be good if I was on the same team as Naruto, so I could take care of him, and help him train, but if my father is involved in deciding the teams, maybe I'll end up on the same team as Menma and Mito) Natsumi thought.
(I hope to be on the same team as Hinata) Menma thought.
(It would be good to be on the same team as onee-san, now being with Menma or Naruto would be frustrating, Sasuke is skilled, but he is very emo) thought Mito.
"We want each team to be balanced in strength and skills, that's how we selected, I'll announce the teams" said Iruka.
Time 1: Natsumi, Mito and Menma Uzumaki Namikaze.
Menma hit his head on the table (I'm not on Hinata's team)
Iruka continued announcing teams of extras, until it was time for the important characters.
"Time 7: Naruto Uzumaki...Sakura Haruno..."
Naruto hit his head on the table, causing the table to crack a little.
(It was obvious that this would happen) Naruto thought.
(Is this balancing strength and skills?) Sakura thought.
"Sasuke Uchiha" Iruka announced.
"THAT'S IT!" Sakura celebrated happily.
(oh no) Naruto thought dejectedly.
(I'm not with Naruto-kun...) thought Hinata.
"next up, team 8: Hinata Hyuuga"
"Yes sir" Hinata said.
"Kiba Inuzuka"
"hehehe" Kiba smiled as he heard his name being called.
"Shino Aburame"
Shino didn't say anything and just adjusted his sunglasses.
Sakura turns to Ino smiling.
Ino growled, "How did you get on this team?"
(SUCK IT YOU SUCKER! LOVE ALWAYS WINS!) Inner Sakura laughed.
"I don't understand, what do you see in that guy? He's not that special" Shikamaru said.
"Are you that stupid Shikamaru? Don't you understand?" Ino asked looking at Shikamaru angrily.
"No, because I'm not a girl," Shikamaru replied.
Ino sighed "you're so conceited, jealousy is a terrible thing, I would hate to be on your team" Ino said smiling.
"Now Team 10: Ino Yamanaka... Shikamaru Nara..."
"IRUKA SENSEI, ARE YOU KIDDING?!" Ino shouted indignantly.
Shikamaru smiled, and Sakura started to laugh.
"I'm Chouji Akimichi"
Chouji was eating potato chips.
(Oh no, not Fat Majin Buu either...) Ino thought depressedly.
Chouji stopped eating for a second when he felt that someone had thought he was fat.
"and lastly team 0: Katsuo Uzumaki, Yuna Misaki and Miyuki Kitsune" said Iruka.
(Team 0? That's weird, could it be some kind of special team? I should ask Tou-san later) Natsumi thought.
...
...
...
"Iruka-sensei" Naruto raised his hand.
"Say Naruto" said Iruka.
"We, these teams were formed based on strength and skill right?" Naruto questioned.
"Sure," Iruka said.
"So... is it just a coincidence that each of them was sitting next to their team members before they were announced?" Naruto asked looking around at everyone.
...
...
...
"After lunch you met your new jounin senseis, until then you are dismissed" said Iruka avoiding answering Naruto's question.
...
Lunch time had arrived, some ate alone, others ate with their friends, and those who ate with their teammates, but Naruto was doing something he didn't usually do... having lunch with his brothers, Natsumi said it would be good if they ate together, Naruto said he wasn't on the same team as them, but Natsumi insisted, no one said anything, despite being born on the same day, they weren't very close, Mito and Menma had their own friends to spend time with, Natsumi was someone who usually stayed alone (by her own choice) and Naruto stayed alone (by the others' choice), but Natsumi deciding not to repeat her mistake from earlier decided to speak up.
"Are you guys nervous?" Natsumi asked, while holding a sandwich she made.
"pfft, of course not onee-san, I'm ready for anything" Menma said smiling confidently, while eating a bread.
"Well, I have good skills, and the three of us are on the same team, and considering that it's likely that Okaa-san is also our jounin sensei, I even saw her in her jounin uniform the other day, and I realized she was training," Mito said while eating a sandwich.
"Alright..." and Natsumi looked at her main source of concern "and you Naruto?"
"I'll be fine" Naruto replied as he ate a banana (I'm more worried about my team than the missions)
"I think you should give up while there's still time brother, I think the life of a ninja is too difficult for someone like you" Menma said with a smile.
"If you die I won't go to your funeral" Mito said before taking another bite of her sandwich.
"If you can do it then it must be easy, after all... you guys are pretty weak" Naruto said.
Menma got angry and grabbed the collar of Naruto's jacket.
"You..." Menma clenched his fist and was ready to hit Naruto.
"MENMA!" Natsumi gritou.
Menma froze as he heard his older sister scream.
"Menma and Mito, don't talk to your brother like that, the last thing he needs right now is you saying that, apologize now" Natsumi demanded in a firm and serious tone.
Mito and Menma, despite obviously not liking it, obeyed "sorry Naruto..."
Natsumi sighed, this would be harder than she thought, she wanted her family to be more united, but there were always problems.
Naruto gets up "well, I'll be going now"
"But we're not done," Natsumi said.
"I'm done," Naruto said before walking away.
Natsumi sighed, Menma looked irritated, and Mito decided to ignore everything.
...
Katsuo, Miyuki and Yuna were having lunch above the gym.
"So they found us," Miyuki said.
"Yes, I knew it wouldn't take long, but there's nothing they can do, they don't have the power to take us by force, and they can't draw much attention here in Konoha," said Katsuo.
"Yuna, it was just one of them, do you know him Katsuo-kun?" Miyuki asked.
Katsuo was silent for a few seconds.
"Yes, I met him years ago, I know he wants me back, but he can't do anything," Katsuo said.
"If he loves his own life, he won't keep insisting," Yuna said with a smile before biting into her sandwich.
...
"Naruto, have you seen Sasuke-kun?" Sakura asked.
"I don't know, this guy isolates himself whenever he has the opportunity, then he shows up when lunch is over," Naruto replied.
"I thought that since we're on the same team, he and I could have lunch together, so we could get to know each other better," Sakura said depressedly.
...
...
...
"And you forgot that I'm also on this team?!" Naruto said irritably.
"I think that's the last thing you should be worrying about right now"
Naruto turned around, and Sakura smiled.
"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura said happily.
"What do you mean by that?" Naruto asked.
"You noticed too, didn't you? That strange presence that was outside the academy lasted for less than a second before disappearing," Sasuke said.
"Well, I was too busy watching your first kiss," Naruto said smiling.
"Shut up, someone was watching the newly graduated genins, and that could be dangerous" said Sasuke.
"Why?" Naruto asked.
"Well, there are cases of kidnapping of children from important clans, I heard that most of the time it happens during missions, but it can also happen in a village, Ino told me once that they tried to kidnap Hinata when she was a child" said Sakura.
"And who would they want to kidnap?" asked Naruto.
"Well, in that room there was the last of the Uchihas, the children of the Hokage who are also descendants of the Uzumaki clan, the daughter of the leader of the Hyuga clan, and those three who arrived on the last day, not to mention the other clan heirs, so I think there are many options" said Sasuke.
"And how are you sure it's a kidnapping?" Naruto asked.
"I don't have one, but it would be good to stay alert, it seemed like someone dangerous" Sasuke said in a serious tone.
"You felt his presence for less than a second and then he hid it, what if it was on purpose? To get someone's attention?" Sakura said.
"you are smarter than i thought you would be"
Everyone then notices Yuna smiling on top of a nearby tree.
"What are you doing here?" Sasuke asked.
"Well, after finishing lunch, I decided to walk a bit before returning to the classroom, and then I heard your conversation," Yuna replied.
"Do you know who it is?" Sakura asked.
"Honestly not much more than you guys, I just know he's after Katsuo-kun" Yuna replied.
"Why? Do you owe money?" Naruto asked.
"No," Yuna replied.
...
...
...
"And... you're not going to say why?" Sakura asked after a moment of silence.
"No, that's Katsuo-kun's business, I just wanted to tell you guys not to worry, because you're not in danger," Yuna said before walking away.
The three watched Yuna leave in silence, until Naruto realized something.
"Who was that guy?" Naruto asked looking up.
"Who?" Sakura asked.
"I'll go check it out," Naruto said before running off.
...
...
...
Sakura looked at Sasuke and smiled "hey Sasuke-kun, what do you think of us-"
"I'll go see what's going on," Sasuke said before following Naruto.
After a few seconds alone, Sakura decided to follow the two.
"Wait for me! I'm part of the team too!"
...
Natsumi was walking around the academy, looking for Naruto, Menma and Mito had left shortly after Naruto, and Natsumi wanted to talk to him, so she spotted Kiba, Akamaru, Shino and Hinata having lunch together.
"Hey, do any of you know where my brother is?" Natsumi asked.
"I think I saw Menma running desperately to the bathroom," Shino replied.
"I was referring to Naruto," Natsumi clarified.
"And since when do you care about Naruto?" Kiba asked.
"I've always cared about my brother and sister," Natsumi said with her arms crossed.
"I think I've only seen you guys interact 3 times in my life," Shino said.
"Did you see him or not?" Natsumi asked seriously.
"No," Kiba replied.
"I haven't seen him since we left the room," Shino replied.
Hinata just stared at Natsumi as she drank her juice box.
Natsumi sighed "okay, thanks anyway" she started to walk away.
"He went with Sasuke and Sakura in that direction"
Natsumi looked back and was surprised, Hinata had said that and was pointing in a direction
"uhh... thanks" said Natsumi still surprised.
"I didn't do it for you," Hinata said before going back to drinking her juice.
Natsumi then went in the direction Hinata pointed, for Hinata to have helped her and said that, there must be something going on.
...
"Oh, it's like a dream come true..." Sakura said smiling with a red face.
Sakura wasn't as fast as Naruto or Sasuke so Sasuke had to carry her.
"Naruto, can you tell me where that guy is? Sakura is starting to drool over me" Sasuke asked.
"It seems I lost sight of him," said Naruto, looking around on top of a tower.
"This could be dangerous, we don't know what this guy is capable of" said Sasuke.
"Shouldn't we notify some chunin, jounin, or even the hokage?" Sakura asked.
"I wanted to see this guy in person," Naruto said.
"Why?" Sakura asked.
"My mother always said that the Uzumakis had been attacked and almost all of them died, with only a few left alive, but that new guy, Katsuo is an Uzumaki, and that guy... I saw that he had red hair" Naruto said more seriously than usual.
"Red hair? Do you think he could be an Uzumaki too? Maybe Katsuo's father, or brother?" Sakura asked in surprise.
"I don't know, but I want to find out," said Naruto.
"maybe I can help"
The three new genins from team 7 noticed the presence of Miyu who was behind Sasuke, who walked away surprised with Sakura still in his arms.
(I didn't even feel your presence...) Sasuke thought tensely.
"Hehe, sorry to scare you, but Yuna told me about you guys wanting to know more about the one who came after Katsuo-kun, and I thought I'd help you guys by taking you to him," Miyu said.
(There are only gossipers in this village) Sakura thought.
"Why?" Sasuke asked suspiciously.
"I just want to see one thing," Miyu said smiling.
Sasuke and Sakura looked suspicious, but Naruto didn't seem to care.
"Alright, take us there" said Naruto.
...
Katsuo arrived at a Konoha training ground, and sighed.
"You can leave wherever you are," Katsuo said seriously.
"We're finally alone, Renji."
On top of a tree was the man who was watching him before, he took off his hood revealing his red hair and blue eyes.
"Aren't you happy to see me?" Renji asked.
"Get to the point," Katsuo said seriously.
"Alright, let's get straight to the point... I'm here to bring you back to the clan" Renji said.
"No," Katsuo replied.
"Hmp, I already figured you'd say that, stubborn as always" said Renji
"I imagine you won't give up so easily," Katsuo said, looking at Renji.
Renji smiled "Of course not"
In the blink of an eye Renji was in front of Katsuo, and attacked him with a kick, which Katsuo blocked, but the kick was strong enough for Renji to go flying, but he easily lands, and dodges a punch to the face, moving away.
"You've really improved a lot," Renji praised.
Katsuo just stared at him.
"who are you?"
Katsuo and Renji notice Naruto approaching.
"I thought I managed to lose you guys," Renji said, looking at Naruto.
"Why are you here?" Katsuo asked.
"Well, I was curious to know what was going on, and I wanted to make sure of something." Naruto looks at Renji, "Are you an Uzumaki?"
"I don't have to answer you anything," Renji said, looking at Naruto.
Then Renji realizes something, and dodges a kick from Sasuke that was aimed at his head.
"You invaded our village, and stalked a minor, if you're not going to answer Naruto, answer the police" said Sasuke.
"I don't have time to play with children," Renji said before appearing behind Sasuke.
Sasuke looks back in surprise before being hit by a strong kick that sent him flying until he collided with a tree.
"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura shouted worriedly from beside Miyu.
"This guy knows this jutsu" said Yuna appearing behind Sakura.
"Ah!" Sakura screamed in fright "You're going to scare your mother! And what jutsu is that?"
"It's called Flash Step, a jutsu that drastically increases a ninja's speed for a short period of time," Yuna replied.
"Flash Step?" Sakura said confused.
"Yes, this jutsu was created by an ancient clan, which used various jutsus for quick and precise assassinations" Miyu explained.
"After that kick I doubt the Uchiha will get up today... wow..." said Yuna noticing Sasuke getting up without any problems.
Renji stared at Sasuke in surprise, that kick would have sent many jounins to the hospital, but Sasuke didn't receive much damage.
"Impressive, it seems like you're already used to taking strong blows," Renji said.
(As I thought, this guy is strong, but compared to those two...) Sasuke thought as he prepared to attack.
"Do you plan on continuing?" Renji asked.
Sasuke closed his eyes for a second, and when he opened them, they were red.
"Sharingan..." said Renji as he recognized those eyes.
Sasuke charged at high speed towards Renji, who dodged and tried to hit Sasuke with a knee, but Sasuke held Renji's knee still in the air and tried to hit him with a kick, which Renji avoided by tilting his head back, the two separated, Sasuke took two kunai, and two shurikens, and threw them at Renji who easily dodged them.
"Kunais and shurikens? Those are only useful when used on weak or inexperienced ninjas," Renji said smiling.
Sasuke smiled, catching Renji's attention, and then noticed that the shurikens had explosive tags.
"Explosive shurikens" Sasuke said smiling.
The shurikens explode and Renji jumps to avoid them, but notices Sasuke in front of him, Sasuke tries to pierce him with a kunai, but Renji holds the kunai with one hand, Sasuke smiles again.
"Electric kunai," Sasuke said before adding chakra to the kunai.
Renji screamed in pain as he was electrocuted, but quickly jumped the kunai and kicked Sasuke hard, making him fall to the ground.
"This Uchiha is good, too bad it wasn't enough," Yuna said.
Sasuke tries to get up, but he feels a blade on his neck.
"I admit that it surprised me, but there's still a long way to go before it reaches my level," said Renji, holding a katana.
Suddenly Renji notices something approaching, and quickly grabs the rock that had been thrown at him, then turns to see Sakura, who is staring at him.
Renji stared at Sakura.
Sakura glared at Renji.
Renji stared at Sakura.
Sakura glared at Renji.
Naruto scratched his butt.
Renji stared at Sakura.
Sakura glared at Renji.
Sasuke stood up.
Renji stared at Sakura.
Sakura glared at Renji.
Katsuo ate a chocolate.
Renji stared at Sakura.
Sakura glared at Renji.
"Naruto, it's up to you" Sakura said pointing at Naruto.
(It took you all this time just to say that?!) thought Katsuo, Miyu, and Yuna.
"Alright, and again the protagonist wearing orange will have to save the secondary character wearing blue who was beaten by the villain" said Naruto clenching his fist.
"Fuck you!" Sasuke exclaimed.
"I'll finish this as quickly as possible," Renji said.
(He's going to use Flash step again...) Yuna thought.
(Now we'll be able to see how strong he really is) Miyu thought with a smile.
"Flash step..." Renji said before disappearing.
Renji appeared behind Naruto.
(Now he's dead, I'll have to take Katsuo out of the village before anyone notices) Renji thought.
"Well, cool is like the boost of that blue hedgehog"
Renji looked back in surprise, Naruto was unharmed.
(he tilted his head avoiding that super fast attack) Sasuke thought he saw thanks to the sharingan.
(Damn, it seems I underestimated Konoha too much, these kids aren't even official genins yet, but they're at that level...) thought Renji as he stared at Naruto.
And it was at that moment that Natsumi arrived and saw what was happening.
"What's going on? Who is that man? And why is Naruto there?" Natsumi asked Sakura.
"Ah, this guy who is apparently an Uzumaki invaded our village, and is after Katsuo, now Katsuo, Sasuke and Naruto are dealing with him" Sakura explained.
"... I understand... call some jounin ninja, and let him know about this, I'll try to distract him, and get the three of them out of there" said Natsumi.
Natsumi started to approach them, but felt a hand on her shoulder, looked back and saw Miyu.
"Don't interfere," Miyu said in a serious tone.
"My brother is dealing with an invading ninja, I won't stand by" Natsumi said, staring at Miyu.
"We want to see how he will do, I'm curious to see if he is as strong as Katsuo-kun thinks he is," Yuna said.
"I don't care what you want to see, I will save my brother" said Natsumi.
"You'll never trust him, will you?"
Natsumi then noticed Hinata approaching.
"Wow, everyone is showing up here, it looks like a party, now all that's missing is Ino showing up" said Sakura with her arms crossed.
"Hi guys," Ino said, appearing.
"Get out of here Ino" said Sakura.
"Naruto-kun is no longer a child who needs to be protected by his sister, he has trained a lot, and has become very strong, and deserves to be a ninja, you need to learn to trust him, because you won't be by his side forever" said Hinata.
"But I..." Natsumi tried to say something.
"Just watch for a bit," Hinata said.
Renji charged towards Naruto, trying to hit him with a kick to the face, Naruto avoided it by taking a step back, Renji tried to hit his face with a punch, but Naruto tilted his head to the side avoiding being hit, Renji continued trying to hit Naruto, but Naruto easily dodged or blocked all the attacks.
(It can't be... his guard is completely open... but he does it effortlessly!) thought Renji in frustration.
Meanwhile, the others watching were impressed, except for Sasuke and Hinata.
"Wow Naruto, no need to humiliate me too" said Sakura.
(He's really strong, fast and tough, if only he had more skills like a ninja...) Miyu thought.
(This guy... how is he so strong?) Yuna thought without understanding.
(Is that... my brother?) thought Natsumi in surprise.
She couldn't believe it, her brother who as a child didn't show much talent, was distracted, had difficulty concentrating and was always getting hurt... was now strong, so strong that he was easily fighting an adult ninja who seemed to be stronger than most of Konoha's jounins, the weak child she had always dedicated herself to protecting... didn't need her anymore... and that hurt...
"I told you, he's strong" Hinata said smiling.
Renji was frustrated, nothing he did was working, so he walked away and started making hand seals.
(He's going to use ninjutsu) Sasuke thought.
"Nenshō no jutsu!" Renji said before spitting out a fireball that grew larger and larger as it approached Naruto.
"NARUTO!!!!!" Natsumi screamed desperately.
Katsuo was about to act, Myu and Yuna watched curiously to see what was going to happen, Sakura watched in surprise, Hinta was calm, Sasuke simply moved away a little, already knowing what was going to happen, Ino who was still there decided to run away, but Naruto clenched his fist, and then...
"soco normal"
Naruto hit the fireball with a punch, something that for many would be a stupid idea ended up being something surprising, the punch not only destroyed the fireball, but also caused a great pressure in the air that made Renji fly away.
(I-impossible...) Renji thought as he flew higher and higher until he was out of Konoha.
(Katsuo-kun was right, this boy is very strong, and dangerous) thought Miyu, staring at Naruto.
(How can a normal human being have so much strength? That wasn't a jutsu, it wasn't magic... it was physical strength...) thought Yuna, unable to understand what had happened.
"Ino was right... Naruto Uzuhack" said Sakura.
(it was obvious) thought Hinata and Sasuke.
(He... he's strong...) Natsumi thought.
"We should go after that guy now," Sasuke said.
"No, he must have already run far away from here," said Katsuo.
"Well, that's a.g.u.t. you noticed, but if we go in that direction I think we can find it" said Sakura.
"No, I meant that he must have returned to his village using hiraishin," Katsuo said.
"hiraishin... does he know hiraishin?" Natsumi stares at Katsuo "who is that guy? How do you know him? You have a lot of things to explain"
"Namikaze-san, I'm sorry but I don't need to explain anything to you, because this is none of your business," Katsuo said.
"An invading ninja invaded the village looking for you and tried to kill my brother, that's my business," Natsumi said seriously.
"You guys should worry about something else" Katsuo approached Miyu and Yuna "as your jounin sensei waiting" Katsuo teleports using hiraishin.
...
...
...
Sakura takes a watch from her pocket.
"Lunch break ended 15 minutes ago..." Sakura said.
And then Sakura realized she was the only one there.
"Traitors! Don't abandon me!" Sakura shouted, running to the academy.
...
The good side is that they didn't arrive that late, Natsumi had to explain some things to Iruka, hiding some details, and as she was an exemplary student Iruka didn't question it, but said that they shouldn't go after unknown ninjas and should have called for help, fortunately their sensei hadn't arrived yet, two minutes after Hinata entered, her sensei, Kurenai, arrived, the bad side is that Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, Natsumi Menma and Mito had to wait more than two hours.
"What a delay..." said Menma.
And then Menma noticed Mito smiling and fiddling with her ninjaphone, and approached to see what she was doing, to realize that she was reading the comments of a photo, but it was the photo of when Menma and Sasuke kissed by accident.
"Give me that!" Menma shouted trying to grab the cell phone.
"No! No way" said Mito trying to push Menma away.
While the two fought over the cell phone, Natsumi approached Naruto.
"Brother... I'm sorry," Natsumi said.
"For what?" Naruto asked.
"For what I said the other day, about how it would be better if you didn't become a ninja... I'm sorry, it's just that since I was the oldest, I always thought that I should take care of you and protect you, I dedicated myself to becoming so strong because of that, and because you weren't as talented as us, I always thought that you were the one who needed protection the most, but I forgot to spend time with you, spend time with you like a good sister, and not just attack or threaten people who mistreated you." Natsumi started to cry "I'm a bad sister..."
"You're not a bad sister," Naruto said.
"NO! HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THIS PHOTO HAD MORE THAN 9,000 LIKES AND 18,000 COMMENTS IN JUST 4 HOURS?!"
"pfft haha, at least you're being accepted bro, there are even some guys asking if you're single"
"She's a bad sister," Naruto said.
"Naruto... I tried to deny myself, but you're strong... strong to the point where you don't need me, you three have grown so strong in such a short time... that I feel useless..." said Natsumi.
"There's no reason to feel useless, there's nothing wrong with worrying about your siblings and wanting to protect them, it's something a good older sister would do," said Naruto.
Natsumi sorriu.
"owww, que fofo"
Naruto and Natsumi stared at Sakura.
"Ah, sorry for ruining the moment," Sakura said.
And then the door opens, revealing Kushina wearing her jounin uniform and Kakashi.
...
...
...
"THEY'RE LATE!" the genins shouted.
"Sorry, it's just that a pink-haired boy ate a cursed finger, and I had to humiliate a powerful king who possessed the boy's body," Kakashi explained.
...
...
...
Kushina hits Kakashi on the head "Liar! You were reading that damn perverted book!" Kushina shouted angrily because she had to search for Kakashi for hours.
Kushina then recomposes herself and looks at the gennins smiling.
"We'll meet you upstairs," Kushina said.
(Why do I feel like our life is going to be very stressful?) Sakura thought.
Meanwhile, in a dark room, Renji was injured and kneeling before a mysterious person.
"I see, so not only were you unable to bring Katsuo back, you were also defeated by a child who had only just graduated from the academy..."
"I-I'm sorry sir, but he wasn't normal, his strength, his speed, everything about him seemed subhuman, he undid the Nenshō no jutsu with just one punch, I've never seen anything like it" said Renji nervously.
"...I'm interested now, if this kid is really that strong, he could be a great ally... or a great threat..."
Well, that was chapter 2, as I said at the beginning, this chapter may not be very good, mainly because of the translation and the changes of mind I had while writing the chapter.
Now I'll talk about some characters.
Hinata: she's very similar to the original, she still loves Naruto, she's already made it clear that she's not interested in Menma, and she doesn't like Natsumi, she knows more about Naruto's strength than most because she watches him (stalks him) a lot.
Sasuke: here the massacre of the Uchiha clan happened (I'll explain in another chapter) he realized Naruto's strength and started challenging him several times, being defeated every time, but evolving more, and managing to awaken the sharingan.
Sakura: she still likes Sasuke, but doesn't hate Naruto, she'll get stronger, but most of the time it will be comic relief.
Curiosities:
I thought about reusing an idea I used in an old fanfic on another account, about the Uzumakis returning.
Unlike many stories here, Sasuke and Sakura don't hate Naruto and won't be annoying all the time. I wanted to make a more functional team 7.
Originally, it was supposed to be a chapter focused on Naruto, Natsumi, Menma and Mito, with them walking through the village, meeting Katsuo and having a confrontation, but I decided to change it.
Questions:
1- Do you want to have monsters like in One Punch Man?
2- Do you want some adapted characters from One Punch Man to appear?
3- Do you want team 1 to accompany team 7 in the Land of Waves?
4- Should I adapt Garou for this fanfic?
5- Should I create an OC to be Menma or Mito's partner?
Well, those are today's questions. In the next chapter, a new character will appear, and there will be more focus on Katsuo.
Hopefully, the next chapter won't be long, bye.
