What do you mean I have to go with with the Pervy sage!?" Yelled Naruto. He'd just got out of the hospital and was ready to search for Sasuke, not go on a training trip. He crashed his arms into an X.
"No way not gonna happen". He said as he looks at the unamused face of Tsunade.
Jiraiya was shaking his head at his student's antics.
"Naruto, listen, you need this training. Jiraiya will train you. If he doesn't, I'm placing him under house arrest and burning all copies of his Icha Icha Paradise volumes in the village. And right now, Sasuke is probably training with Orochimaru getting stronger. If you want to drag his ass back, shut up, pack up, and get to fucking training." Stated Tsunade. She really needed Naruto out of the village for the next couple of years. Danzo was starting to plan something and she wanted Naruto away from it all.o
Naruto thought about it for a sec. He pointed at Tsunade.
"Fine, but if the perv doesn't properly train me, I'm coming back and personally destroying your alcohol stash... ALL OF THEM." Said Naruto causing Tsunade to look slightly worried... How did he know?
"Oh, he will...won't you Jiraiya." Said Tsunade with an all too sweet smile at the Toad Sage.
He hurriedly replied with a nod. "Of course, he'll be the best damn ninja in the village when I'm done."
She kept the smile on her face while nodding.
"Good I'll be sending my slugs to check up on you from time to time... If he hasn't made progress, your ass is grass. Do I make myself clear?" She asked while leaking killer intent making both Naruto and Jiraiya cower in fear.
"Of course, him, he will be trained to perfection. Heck, he will be able to go head to head with Orochimaru when I'm done."
"Good then get going. You have four years...no more no less. (It'll take longer for the things to progress so everything that happened takes place a year before their current timeline. For example, the actual date is just a year before.)
Naruto returned to his apartment to pack his belongings...or at least what he had. He cleaned out cleaned out his I fridge and tossed out tossed out all tossed out all the tossed out all the trash that littered the floor.
He packed all his clothes and sealed away the money he's been saving. He looked around his apartment... The only thing of personal value that he had was the picture of Team Seven.
" I'm heading off now... I'll be back in four years." He said closing the door to his apartment for the last time for the next few years.
He walked on the streets of the village he called home, ignoring the looks he got...but he noticed something in some of the civilians... It wasn't hated, loathing, or indifference... It was curiosity.
"That's him isn't it.."
"Yeah."
"...So he's Naruto."
"...Yeah, he's the apprentice to Jiraiya-same."
"...Isn't he the one that failed to bring Sasuke-sama back."
"Yes, but from what I heard, he fought to the bitter end."
He ignored the gossip and continued walking to the gate. Most of his friends were recovering or on a mission...So he asked Tsunade to tell them he would bring back some souvenirs as an apology for not saying goodbye.
When he made it to the front gate, Jiraiya was standing there talking to Kakashi about something.
"Yo, Pervy Sage, I'm ready when you are." Shouted Naruto as he ran up to the two of them.
Kakashi gave Naruto his signature eye smile and handed him a small piece of paper.
"Naruto, before you go out there, I have a gift for you."
"A piece of paper?" Naruto asked as he held it in his hand.
"It's called chakra paper. Shinobi use it to see what elemental affinity they have... All you have to do is channel chakra into it. If it slices in half, its wind. If it melts, its water. If it burns, it's fire. If it crumbles, it's earth. If it's wrinkled, it's lightning."
"Thank you, Kakashi-sensei," Naruto said hugging him. Kakashi hugged him back. "Good luck, Naruto... With a little luck, you'll get a girlfriend." He said jokingly. Naruto punched him in the arm.
"Get real, Kakashi, I won't get a girlfriend...besides...I'm actually not interested in a relationship right now... And to be honest, I didn't really like Sakura in a romantic sense...you know." Naruto gave a sheepish smile.
After saying his goodbyes to Kakashi and the eternal gate guards. He and Jiraiya walked for a few hours.
"So, Pervy Sage, where are we going?" Asked Naruto. "I mean, I doubt we'd wander aimlessly."
Jiraiya smiled at Naruto.
"We're going to a place no one else in Konoha has gone before...for good reason... This place is called Remnant. The reason was going there is so the Akatsuki don't attack us... Getting to Remnant is dangerous and time-consuming. However, I know a way to get to Remnant, thanks to a distant relative of mine. You will be training with other children in an academy"
"WHAT? NO WAY, I AM NOT GOING BACK TO SCHOOL AGAIN!" Shouted Naruto as he stopped walking. That was not part of the plan.
Jiraiya sighed. He should have kept his mouth shut.
"Naruto, listen to me. This will be a new start for you. I will train you in your free time and I will also be an instructor for the combat class. At this academy, you will be able to get the education that was sabotaged back in the Leaf. Your not an idiot, Naruto. An idiot couldn't master the Rasengan in less than a month. An idiot couldn't convince Tsunade to become Hokage. An idiot couldn't have saved the village from the one tails rampage. You are not an idiot and you deserve to prove the village wrong." Lectured Jiraiya. He saw Naruto's potential and was angered at how all of it went to waste in the academy.
Naruto looked down. He hadn't thought of his intelligence at all after the academy.
"Can I really ...learn?" He asked unsure if he said that correctly... Jiraiya smiled and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"It's never too late to learn, Naruto. There will always be something new to learn... I swear on my honor as a sage of the Leaf to properly train you and teach you all I know... I won't even peep or think of women while we train...deal?"
Naruto gave him his signature grin. "You've got a deal, Pervy Sage."
"Great, you will train in chakra control as we walk and before you claim you've got fine chakra control if you want to learn any of my JUTSU, you need much better chakra control. Now grab ten leaves and balance them on the tip of your pinky...only your pinky." Said Jiraiya. He promised to train Naruto and train him he will.
Naruto began to do as he was told, finding it difficult to do while walking. The leaves would fall off after a couple of steps. They kept this routine up for a week with the two of them stopping on occasions to train in different workouts or for Jiraiya to teach and quiz Naruto one on one.
They were currently on the port city of Tenkashi, a small fishing city with a single tower at its center. They headed for the docks where Jiraiya had bought a boat to travel to Remnant. A very rickety and old boat.
"Okay, Naruto, this is very important for you to remember once were out at sea. You will not be able to summon the toads. They can be affected by what these Grimm are made of..." Said Jiraiya. He had given a general rundown of the countries of Remnant, Grimm, and the Faunus, who Naruto sympathized with heavily.
"Alright, got it...you picked this place so Tsunade couldn't give random check-ups, didn't you?" Deadpanned Naruto.
Jiraiya could only give a nervous laugh.
"Haha...guilty as charged. Anyway, let's set sail." He said.
The boat wasn't very large or very sturdy, in Naruto's opinion. It was a small single sail fishing boat. With more than a few dents on the ship, it would be more than enough to get them to Remnant.
"I'm actually kinda excited about this." Said Naruto.
He was going to a foreign country few others from his home has ever been.
"Oh, Naruto, by the way, it'll take one month to get there. In that time, start studying and make clones to work on chakra control." Jiraiya said while steering the boat out of the harbor passing other shipping vessels.
"Alright, Pervy Sage." Naruto's control had improved in the weeks following their departure from the Leaf. He was able to learn a wind technique, Great Breakthrough. He even improved on it.
Usually, the user had to expel it through their mouth, but Naruto was able to use it from different parts of his body thanks to his wind affinity.
Naruto had an affinity for fire, water, and air.
His affinities are a deadly and rare combination. Although Naruto had trouble using his fire affinity, it was mostly because of the amount of chakra control needed to use those techniques.
Granted it was unusual for anyone to have multiple affinities but Jiraiya chalked it up to Naruto having good genetics for each affinity.
Fire and water required more chakra control then wind.
Mostly because if he pushed more chakra then he intended he could lose control of his attack.
"This is going to suck...a whole month at sea with no beautiful women." Moped Jiraiya as letting loose the full sail.
"WIND RELEASE: GREAT BREAKTHROUGH!" Shouted Jiraiya as he used the technique to propel the ship with a large gust of wind.
"Well, that's one way to use the technique." Thought Naruto.
Naruto was studying English, the common language spoken in Remnant, with the help of his shadow clones and Jiraiya. He was getting better at speaking but reading and writing were entirely different.
The trip actually took half as long than Jiraiya expected since they spammed the use of great breakthrough and shadow clones.
When they started to get closer to Remnant, however, is when they started to run into aquatic Grimm. These were small shark-like creatures with weak bone armor. Jiraiya called them Grimm shark...wow really original.
Their boat had been destroyed and they had to run across the water for an entire day. While occasionally dodging and killing a Grimm shark with their Rasengan.
Their kunai were completely useless against their bone and thick hides.
When they made it to the beach Naruto fell into the ground.
"Huff...huff...huff...that sucked." Said Naruto. He was wet and his orange jumpsuit was reduced to shreds.
Even Jiraiya was sweating slightly.
"That's why Shinobi stay clear of this place. Our weapons aren't strong enough to penetrate the Grimm's bone and hide...and those were weaker Grimm. They couldn't have been older than two months." At this naruto's mouth dropped. This place was dangerous and he could only wonder how people have survived living in these conditions.
"Come on, we should be in Vale. I'll buy you some new clothes and we'll get on a bullhead that'll take us to Beacon. My cousin will handle everything." He said as he helped Naruto to his feet and led him over the hill.
What Naruto saw shocked him.
He had never seen a city like this on any of his missions before. Before he was the city of Vale. Towering skyscrapers and freeways and moving vehicles and flying ships were what greeted Naruto.
"Whoa...this is AMAZING!" he shouted with excitement. his friends back home would never believe this. He could barely believe what he was seeing.
Jiraiya chuckled at Naruto.
"Yeah, these people make up for their physical disadvantage to the Grimm with the aid of their technology and ingenious weapon crafting." He said while he led Naruto into the city.
They stopped at a clothing store run by an old man. Naruto picked out a mostly black jacket with a strip of orange and black cargo pants with black combat boots.
"Nice look, Naruto." Said Jiraiya as he placed a hand on his shoulder. He handed Naruto a Scroll (the phone not ninja scroll).
"Naruto, this is called a scroll. My number is on it. You can use it to make phone calls to people that you know the contact number with. Along with other uses, play around with the buttons. You'll learn from using it." He said since he could barely use a Scroll himself.
They traveled through vale for a few hours trying to find the 'airport'.
When they did find it, a tall blond woman wearing a purple cape and sunglasses was waiting for them. She also had a bust that rivaled Tsunade's.
"Hello, you must be Jiraiya. My name's Glynda Goodwitch. You'll be working alongside me during combat class and this must be your apprentice... Mister Uzumaki was it?... Young man, I'll make myself clear, Beacon is a highly prestigious academy. I expect you to be mature and follow the school rules. Am I clear?"
"Yes, Miss Glyn." Said Naruto with a smirk.
Glynda gained a tick mark on her forehead.
"That's Professor Goodwitch to you, Mister Uzumaki."
"Whatever you say, Miss Glyn," he said with a smile. She only sighed and led them into the bullhead while muttering something about annoying kids.
"Naruto, may I ask how old you are?" She asked.
"I'm fourteen," he answered surprising her.
"Well, then you are now the youngest first year to be enrolled in Beacon. If I were you, I'd find a girl named Ruby Rose. She's a year older than you. Every other first year will be two years older than you."
When they arrived at Beacon, many students were arriving in bullheads.
"Naruto, follow the first years and if you run into Ruby Rose, then follow her... Good luck." Said Jiraiya as he went with Glynda to the auditorium.
Naruto grabbed his bags and followed the crowd until he heard an explosion. Curiosity got the better of him and he went to check what caused it.
"YOU DOLT, DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU JUST DID?!" Yelled a short white haired girl dusting herself off.
"I'm sorry, it was an accident." Said the black and red-haired girl.
"Ugh... Aren't you a little young to be enrolled at Beacon?" The white-haired girl sneered at the other girl. Naruto decided to intervene.
"Hey, I said sorry, princess."
"What does age matter?" He said when he approached the two girls.
"Just great, another brat." Said the white-haired girl.
"Aren't you the same age as us?"
"I'm seventeen." the white-haired girl said.
"Fifteen." The black and red-haired girl said.
"Fourteen," Naruto said.
"Whatever, do you even know who I am?" She pointed at Naruto. He shook his head.
"She's Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust Company..." Said a black haired girl with a bow on her hair.
"Finally, some recognition." Said Weiss.
"...a company known for its shady business partners and even shadier business practices." The other girl stated.
"WHY, I NEVER! URGH!" Weiss yelled and stormed off.
"Um...thanks for the help, miss...and she's gone."
"You okay? I heard an explosion. What happened here?" Asked Naruto.
"Oh, I tripped over princess's
luggage and she shakes a vile of dust, I sneezed and then I blew up... I'm Ruby Rose, but you can call me Crater Face... I mean, call me Ruby." She said correcting herself.
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki. Nice to meet you, Ruby." He said while holding out a hand for her to shake.
"So your fourteen, huh? That's cool. You must be really strong if you're already in Beacon." She said when they started walking. A blond haired boy named Jaune joined them and was also shocked at Naruto's age.
"Actually, my master is going to be one of the combat instructors here, so I was allowed to enroll..." He said truthfully. "...but I am really strong." He flexed his arms as if he had huge muscles causing Ruby to laugh.
"Well, at least you're honest. I was enrolled because I stopped a known criminal from robbing a dust shop with my baby, Crescent Rose." She showed Jaune and Naruto her giant red scythe.
"Wow, that's awesome!" Said Naruto in amazement.
"So what do you two got?"
"I have a sword and shield. The shield can collapse into a sheath." Said Jaune as he drew Crocea Mors.
"That's neat. What about you, Naruto?"
"I don't have a weapon." He said causing Ruby and Jaune to go
"WHAT but how do you fight Grimm?!" Asked Ruby.
Naruto shrugged.
"No, I won't allow it. I'll teach you how to make a weapon. It's a crucial tool if you want to fight the Grimm." She said with determination in her eyes.
"Thanks, I'll make a great weapon." He said. He liked Ruby. She was hyper and fun to be around.
"Uh, do you guys know where the auditorium is" asked Jaune.
"I was following Naruto/Ruby." They both said.
After being lost for another ten minutes, they found the auditorium.
"Just in time." Said Jaune.
"Ruby, over here. I save you guys some spots." Shouted a blond haired girl with lilac eyes.
"Come on, Naruto. See ya, Jaune." Ruby said as he dragged Naruto through the crowd.
"Great, now where am I going to find a fun quirky girl to talk to." Said Jaune.
"So my sister already found a boyfriend, huh?" She said with a playful smirk.
"Yang, we're just friends. This is Naruto. Naruto, this is my sister, Yang."
"Sup blondie, I'm Yang Xiao Long...aren't you a little young to be at Beacon?" She asked.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Naruto Uzumaki and I'm fourteen. It's a long story."
"So why were you late ruby. Making out with blondie over here, were you?"
"NO! I exploded. I tripped over a crabby girls luggage and then she yelled at me and then I sneezed and then I exploded. She yelled again and then I felt really, really bad and I just wanted her to stop yelling."
"YOU!" Yelled Weiss as she pointed at Ruby.
She jumps into Naruto's arms.
"OH GOD, ITS HAPPENING AGAIN."
"You're lucky we weren't blown off the side of the cliff!"
"Oh my God, you really exploded." Said Yang with a look of disbelief.
"Ruby, can you get down please?" Asked Naruto, who was still holding her.
After Weiss gave Ruby a pamphlet of "Dust For Dummies". She looked at Naruto.
"I'm curious, why is someone so young at Beacon?"
"Well, Ice Queen, my sensei is a combat instructor here, so I was allowed to enroll." He said. Weiss scoffed at him.
"This is no place for a child. You should go home." She said. "You're in over your head, kid."
"You're the one acting childish here." Said Yang. Before an argument could erupt, Ozpin, Glynda, and Jiraiya walked onto the stage.
After his speech, he introduced Jiraiya.
"Now, please welcome our new staff member, Professor Jiraiya."
Jiraiya cleared his throat before hearted to pose with the music playing on the speakers.
"I'm the hermit of Mount Myoboku, the wise and immortal spirit. That's right, it is I, THE TOAD MOUNTAIN SAGE!" He said. The entire auditorium was deadly quiet. Naruto only faced palmed at his antics.
This was so embarrassing.
"I will be one of your combat instructors, here at beacon for the next four years. I currently have an apprentice that is enrolled here. When class is not in session, I will be training him." He said.
Glynda took the mic away from him.
"First years will be spending the night in the ballroom. The faculty will lead you there. Welcome to Beacon Academy."
"Naruto, get up here and follow us." Shouted Jiraiya. Naruto jumped over the crowd and landed next to his sensei.
"Pervy Sage, that was just bad." He said. he could already hear the rumors spreading about him.
"Come on, Naruto, we need to fill out some paperwork," Jiraiya said as he led him to the headmaster's office.
"Okay, what we're actually here to do is to unlock your aura." Said Jiraiya.
"Hello, I'm Professor Ozpin. I'm Jiraiya's cousin. Now, I'm aware of your 'condition' which is why the three of us are unlocking your aura. We can't risk the nine tails running wild." He said while sipping his coffee.
Naruto was a special case. He technically had two souls in one body. Unlocking his aura was very dangerous.
"Okay, I trust you guys... Jiraiya, I blame you for anything bad that happens."
Ozpin and Glynda place both of their hands on Naruto's head. The three of them began to glow white. They stayed like that for ten minutes.
Jiraiya had a seal ready just in case Naruto went berserk.
Each minute felt like an hour to Jiraiya
Ozpin and Glynda were pushed back from Naruto as he was shrouded in a gold energy. The light could be seen by everyone outside.
"Whoa, this is amazing...it feels...I can't explain it." Said Naruto as he looked at himself. He was glowing gold. That was awesome.
"I've never seen someone with so much aura before. It's potent as well. Just what have you been through in your life so far." Asked Glynda. She never expected Naruto to have so much aura. Normally, people that have accessed chakra didn't have a lot of aurae.
"Um...how do I stop it?" Asked Naruto since he was still glowing. It was cool, but it would draw a lot of attention.
"It's similar to chakra just stop the flow." Said Jiraiya as he gave a sigh of relief. He was slightly against trying to unlock Naruto's aura because he was afraid to weaken the seal.
"Let me check the seal," he said as Naruto lifted his shirt for him to inspect the seal.
"It looks like unlocking your aura actually strengthened the seal which is amazing." He said.
"He's not at any risk of unleashing the nine tails by accident any time soon."
"Naruto, you may go with the other first years. Jiraiya, lead him there" Said Ozpin.
"Also, get some rest. Tomorrow is the initiation for the first years."
After that, Naruto and Jiraiya had left.
"I can't believe that perv is your cousin." Said Glynda. She had caught him continuously staring at her breast.
"yes, well, he comes from my mother's side of the family. I found him a few years back. He might be a perv but he's a good man." Ozpin said as he drank his coffee.
"We're a lot alike, him and I. We've both made mistakes, yet people always look to us for greatness." Glynda adjusted her glasses.
"Well, in any case, as long as he doesn't harass the female students." She took a look at her scroll.
Naruto had enough aura to fill her entire class roster.
"I'm more curious about Mister Uzumaki. A person does not simply have this much aura without going through a lifetime of hardship and trials... Something must have happened to him."
"Glynda, they come from a foreign country were Grimm do not exist, yet I think they have it far worse then we do," Ozpin said as he started to read a book his cousin gave him.
Make out paradise English edition.
"He is a great author though," he said.
In the auditorium.
"Well, Naruto, good luck tomorrow." Said Jiraiya as he left Naruto.
Everyone in the room was looking at him.
He walked to the changing room and changed into a pair of boxers and a muscle shirt.
When he came back out, they were all shocked at how toned his body was.
He had a six pack and the body of a runner and a swimmer. His muscles were well toned and promised improvement with time.
"Yo, Naruto, over here." Shouted Ruby. Naruto walked over to Ruby and her sister, Yang. He laid down his sleeping bag next to theirs.
"So that was your teacher...he's...interesting." Said Ruby scratching the back of her head sheepishly.
"Don't worry, I know how he is... Sadly, I know two people that are way worse than him." Said Naruto.
"So what was the deal with that intro?" Asked Yang. She never would have thought a professional huntsman would introduce themselves like that.
"Man, today went by fast," said Naruto as he pulled out the last of his kunai and started to balance them on his fingers with chakra.
Yang and Ruby could only watch in amazement as he added another three kunai to the one balancing on his finger. "How are you doing that?" Asked Ruby.
Naruto looked at the two of them.
"It's an aura control exercise my teacher makes me do every day. Before I sleep, I add a kunai every two weeks and balance it without cutting myself. "He didn't know if he could tell them what chakra was, so he would refer to it like an aura.
A raven-haired boy with a strip of pink in his hair approached Naruto.
"Well, that's some great aura control you have. My names Lie Ren. I didn't know there were others that practiced aura manipulation in the first year. "He said.
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki nice to meet you, Lie Ren. I'm still new to aura manipulation. Do you have any tips?"
"Yeah, don't force too much aura through one part of your body or else you'll blow it off." He said honestly and calmly like he was talking about the weather.
"Got it. Great advice. So you guys excited about tomorrow?" Naruto asked still practicing his control. He would ask the pervy sage if he could start aura manipulation later.
"Meh." Said Ren. He didn't really care what team he was placed on.
"HI!" Shouted an orange haired girl as she jumps on Ren's back, which caused Naruto to lose focus and for the kunai to launch into the roof.
"IM NORA VALKYRIE, WHAT'S YOUR NAME?" She asked with a cheerful expression.
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki..." He said as he shook hands with the orange hair girl.
"See, Ruby, your making friends...and one enemy." Said Yang trying to encourage her sister.
"Well, more like Naruto's making a lot of friends... Hey, I know that girl." Said, Ruby, as she got up to talk to the girl that helped her earlier with Yang following behind.
"So, Naruto, where are you from?" Ren asked out of curiosity.
"I grew up in a village outside the kingdom's protection in a little-isolated island where Grimm is relatively rare," Naruto told a half-truth.
"Really, that's rough most of those villages get destroyed. In only a few years, the survivors then build a new village somewhere else." Said Ren.
"I FOUND IT!" Shouted Nora as she pulled out Naruto's headband from Konoha.
"This must be your symbol."
"Actually, that's the symbol of my village." Said Naruto.
"My symbol is something different."
Before they could continue, the lights went out. Naruto climbed into his sleeping bag and thought about what tomorrow would be like.
