Author's Notes: I got an idea for people that want me to rewrite Overlooked Geniuses and Gamer stories. So I decided to combine both stories, but I made some changes. Yakumo Kurama will be in this story (by readers' request)

If you do not like this story don't read it.

I do not own Naruto, other anime and games.

Also I want to thank Chrono Phoenix for being Beta'd for my story. SeerKing for inspiring me to write this story and reference I borrowed (got permission from SeerKing).


Chapter 1: The Start

Konoha Afternoon, Eleven Years After Kyūbi Attack

"Stupid bunshin…stupid exam…stupid teme…" Naruto whispered to himself after failing his second Genin exam as he was completely ignoring the glares and sneers from villagers. He walked back to his rundown apartment located in the slums of Konoha.

Naruto Uzumaki is an 11 year old orphan boy. He is seen wearing an orange jumpsuit everyday. Naruto has earned many nicknames such as Konoha's pariah, dead last, ramen freak, prankster, demon brat, etc.

The majority of Konoha's citizens despise him for an unknown reason. Konoha's shinobi clans completely ignore him except for when he pranks them. The only people that do not hate or ignore him are Hokage-Jiji, Iruka-sensei, Teuchi-jiisan and Ayame-neechan.

The only good thing is that the people that hate him do not physically abuse him anymore. After the time he got beaten by an angry mob when he was 6 years old, and the suspects mysteriously disappeared the next day. Because of that case people do not physically harm him, but they still gave him glares, refuse him service, vandalize his apartment, and more.

After 10 minutes, he finally arrived to his run-down apartment where he sighed in relief finally being free of the villagers' glares.

His apartment was somewhat habitable to live in, but because of constant vandalism from villagers during his absence or at nighttime he didn't clean his apartment already knowing his place would just be wrecked again. Most of his furniture and belongings he found in an alley or the trash except for the orange jumpsuit, which he bought from a civilian store paying triple the price than normal, and the birthday gifts he received from Hokage-Jiji.

Going inside his apartment, Naruto was about to lay down on his makeshift bed when he noticed a white book laying atop his kitchen table as if telling him to read it.

"I don't remember owning that book?" Naruto said tilting his head in confusion.

At first, he thought the book was a trap set by some villagers, but he quickly threw that thought out because they always destroyed his stuff without leaving any evidence.

'Well…let's see what it is' Naruto thought to himself as he picked up the mysterious book.

Neither the cover nor the back of the book had a title, author or anything else it was just blank. Seeing no evidence of what the book may be about Naruto opened it and a bright light immediately appeared blinding around him causing him to pass out.

*2 Hours Later*

Naruto groaned as he gradually opened his eyes to see a small blue box floating in front of his face with words written on it.

[…Downloading files complete…System check complete…Error scan complete…User recognition complete…Connection complete… Welcome Naruto Uzumaki…]

"WHAT. THE. HELL?" Naruto shouted in surprise with wide eyes.

Shaking his head, he slowly put his hand in the Ram hand sign.

"Kai" (Release) Naruto shouted believing that he was in a Genjutsu placed on the book he opened earlier, but the blue box didn't disappear. After multiple times of trying to dispel the Genjutsu and ending up unsuccessful he decides to look for the white book.

"Where the heck did that book go?" Naruto asked himself while searching around his room. A couple minutes later he gave up on looking for the book seeing as it just kinda ya'know literally disappeared. Even though nobody came into his apartment since he had locked his front door.

With no other choice he looked back at the floating box and hesitantly poked it with his finger.

"Wow! It feels real!" He said in surprise before seeing another box appear in front of his face.

Naruto Uzumaki

Class: The Gamer

Title: Academy Student (+15% EXP to LV 10)

LV: 3 Next Level 00.00%

"OK, this is getting weird" Naruto mumbled seeing his name on the box.

"What is going on?" Another box appeared in front of him.

Another box appeared in front of him.

[Do you wish to go over the basic instructions?]

[Y/N]

He shrugged his shoulders having no real choice, so he hit the 'Y' button to better understand his current situation.

[Congratulation! You have earned power of Gamer giving you the ability live life as a game. To open up the menu say 'Menu']

"Menu" Naruto said and a new window opened up closing the previous window automatically.

[Welcome to the Menu Window. Please say one of the topics from below to view the window for that topic.]

- Status Window

-Inventory

-Skills

-Quirks

-Quests

-Reputation

-Map

"It responds to my voice weird…Status Window" Naruto said going in order.

[The status window displays the user's to see your Name, Class, Level, Experience, Title, Age, HP, CP, Stats, AP, and Money].

[Name is self-explanatory. Class is given by Gaia herself which is a rare skill known as 'Natural Ability' that allows user to perform a specific power that no one else can have. Level determines how strong or weak you are. By increasing your level you can become stronger and spend ability points (AP) to increase your attributes. Experience is a unit of measurement for the user's progression and is generally rewarded for completing quests, overcoming obstacles, and defeating opponents. A Title allows a user to obtain special abilities. A Title will be rewarded upon the user for completing or meeting certain conditions. Age is also self-explanatory. HP short for Hit points is the amount of health the user has and when it reaches zero the user will die. CP short for Chakra Points is the amount of chakra the user has at their disposal. CP is used to perform jutsu and when it reaches zero it will cause the user to die.]

[Attribute describes your character's physical and mental characteristics. There are six different attributes STR, STA, DEX, INT, WIS, & LUK.]

[STR (Strength) is responsible for the amount of damage done to enemies. STA (Stamina) is responsible for the amount of HP, damage resistance, and vitality the user has. DEX (Dexterity) is responsible for user movement speed, accuracy and evasion. INT (Intelligence) determines how smart the user is and how quickly the user can learn. WIS (Wisdom) measures the user's common sense, alertness, perception, and resistance to deception. LUK (Luck) increases the user's critical hit rate, finding of items, and gambling.]

[The user can gain additional points for each attribute by performing certain actions such as training, studying and etc. AP (Ability Points) are points the user gains each level to distribute to attributes. For each level gained the user will be given 5 AP to distribute. Money is self-explanatory.]

'Oh Shit! That's a lot to remember!' Naruto thought

"Inventory" Naruto said and another window quickly popped up.

[The user has the ability to store any items (possessions) into a personal dimensional pocket. As the user progress there will be specific quests to increase the amount of inventory slots the user has. (Max Inventory Slots: 50, Max Item Stack:100 )]

"This is great! I don't need to worry about teme's stealing or breaking my stuff anymore!" Naruto said happily realizing that his possessions will now be safe. All he had to do was store it inside his inventory and no one would be able to get to it.

"Skills" He said making another window to appear.

[The user can bring up a window that shows a list of all the skills you have learned. In addition, you can use, learn, train, and create skills.]

"Huh? It doesn't explain a lot. Maybe I should look through it more later." Naruto muttered to himself.

"Quirks" He said

[Quirks are traits possessed by everyone that can be gained through activities or lifestyle. Quirks can affect the user in various ways both positive and negative ways that can modify the user's stats and force certain behaviors. Some quirks can be unlocked under specific condition. Quirks can be seen at your status window for shortcut (Warning: Some quirks may remain permanent)]

"Quests" Naruto said

[Quests allow you to take missions (quests) to complete. Sometimes quests will appear randomly. It is important to complete quests without failure as completing it will give you rewards. (Warning: Some quests will require you to make difficult decisions)]

"Wow!" Naruto whispered to himself with stars in his eyes. It was like a fictional story he read long ago about a hero doing quests in order to defeat an evil lord and rescue a princess.

"Reputation" He said wanting to get this over with.

[Reputation is recognition by various people, groups, clans, and village.]

"Map" Naruto said happily as this was the last one.

[You can use map to explore any uncharted areas. The Map system also allows you to keep track of selected people within 120 yards (Max People Selection: 10 people)]

[This concludes basic instructions. Please read the rest of the instructions in your spare time by just saying 'Gamer Search'.]

"This is extremely useful." He mumbled in surprise. While being a ninja it is important to know your surroundings.

"Nice! with this ability my dream of becoming Hokage will be even clos-"

"CRASH!"

He jumped in surprise hearing one of his windows being shattered by a stone. Looking outside he sees an adult run into the alley, but he couldn't do anything knowing that anyone he told would call him 'Liar'.

"Bastard" He growled out in anger before taking some deep breathes to calm down.

After looking over the damage to his window he quickly cleaned up the mess to avoid accidentally cutting himself on the glass remains later. After that he picked up the stone and gave it a quick inspection. While looking over the seemingly normal stone a window appeared.

[A skill has been created through a special action. Through continuous observation, the skill 'Observe' has been created.]

[Observe] (Active) [LV 1, 00.00 EXP]
Through continuous observation, a skill that can observe objects, situations, and people was created allowing the user to quickly gather information. The higher the skill's level the more information that can be obtained.

"…I created a skill" Naruto mumbled in surprise "Well let's give it a shot" Looking at the rock he decides to use his new skill

"Observe" He said as blue box popped up.

[Stone] (Rarity: Common)

A stone that can be found anywhere.

"What is rarity? Wait I can use that search thing Gamer Search" He said and like he thought it would a window instantly appeared

"Search rarity" He said.

[Rarity is the value of items. There are five categories of rarity.]

[Common: Can easily be found and easy to make.]

[Uncommon: Not common. Hard to make, but with better stats.]

[Rare: Not found in large numbers. Harder to make & find. Has impressive stats.]

[Unique: Not found. One of a kind items if created by using rare materials. Have better stats than Common/Uncommon items.

[Legend: Items based on fairytales. It's so rare that it cannot be found within a lifetime. The stats are extremely high.]

"Oh man this ability is getting better every minute!" He shouted in excitement until his stomach growled in hunger.

[Quest Alert!]

You're hungry: Go to Ramen Ichiraku and satisfy your hunger.

Quest Completion Award: +50 EXP

Quest Failure: +10 EXP

"Quest sweet! Well time for my ramen Dattebayo!" Naruto said with his verbal tick tacked on the end.

While walking to Ramen Ichiraku completely ignoring glares from civilians a box appeared again.

[A skill has been created through a special action. Through continuous exposure to Killing Intent, you unlocked the skill 'Detect Killing Intent']

[Detect Killing Intent] (Passive) [LV 1: EXP: 0.00%]
A skill that detects any killing intent (KI) directed at you making it an instinctive skill. Higher levels will allow you an expanded range and the ability to pin point the origin of the KI.

Range: 30 Meters

'So by being exposed to KI I got another skill? I don't know if I'm supposed to be happy about getting another useful skill or feel sad that people hate me for NO DAMN REASON! I mean I did prank them many times, but it's not like that's a good enough reason for them to despise me so much like I'm a public enemy of Konoha?' He thought in frustration. Oh, how much he wanted to find out why people hate him.

Ramen Ichiraku

Arriving at Ramen Ichiraku he gave one of his true smiles. Unlike the fake smile that almost everyone else sees.

"Hey Teuchi-jiisan and Ayame-nee-chan" Naruto said getting their attention.

Teuchi and Ayame had smile on their faces seeing their favorite customer.

"Hey Naruto-kun! You come for your ramen?" Ayame said cheerfully already knowing what he came there for.

"Yup Ayame-nee-chan!" Naruto responded back seeing that Teuchi-ojiisan was busy in the kitchen.

"Well you've got to wait for about ten minutes. We just finished restocking noodles. Is that fine with you?" She said.

"Take your time nee-chan." Naruto said not wanting Teuchi and Ayame to rush.

"Ok I will be back soon" Ayame said going back to the kitchen.

"Observe" Naruto whispered wanting to test his observe skill.

Ayame

Title: Ichiraku Ramen Waitress

LV 10

Description: (Require Observe LV 2)

He was surprised when he saw Ayame's level, but because his observe skill is at LV 1 it didn't reveal a lot of information about her. After doing that he felt terrible for looking at Ayame's private information and swore to never use his observe skill on Ayame and Teuchi. Though he still wants to use observe on Iruka-sensei and Hokage-Jiji since he does prank them the time and wants to know how they always find him whenever he hides afterwards.

Having nothing else to do he decided to look at his status carefully.

"Status Window" He said quietly.

He is hated and ignored by the majority of the villagers for an unknown reason and his life is full of mysteries. He never gives up as he completely ignores villagers' negative comments and behaviors toward him.

"This is bad…very bad" Naruto whispered to himself with a shocked look on his face. Seeing his stats and negative perks he realized he needed to take his studies and training seriously.

Naruto wanted to smack his head onto the table and cry. He had to cut back his ramen intake and eat something else. The only reason he eats ramen is because when he tries to purchase other food or ingredients from the local shops the owners will deny his purchase, overcharge him, or chase him out.

'Good thing I have positive quirks, but I need to get rid of the negative quirks' Naruto thought annoyed that he had a lot of negative quirks. His musings were interrupted when he saw Ayame return from the kitchen signifying the ten minute wait had ended.

"Sorry for the wait Naruto-kun, so what would you like to have?" Ayame asked.

When he was about to order his normal portion he paused remembering that he needed to eat healthy food. So he quickly looked through the menu and made his decision.

"Umm…can I have 1 Large Beef Bowl, 6 Gyoza and Edamame" He said.

Both Ayame and Teuchi had gobsmacked looks on their faces with their mouths wide open and their eyes wide as saucers.

"C-C-Can you repeat that again?" Ayame stuttered not believing what she had heard. Even Teuchi pinched his cheek hard to see if he was dreaming.

Naruto shifted in his seat feeling nervous and repeated his order "Can I have 1 Large Beef Bowl, 6 Gyoza and Edamame"

Hearing his order, Ayame quickly focused on him placing her hands on her hip wanting an explanation.

"Why the sudden change of food Naruto-kun? Are you getting tired of our ramen?" She said with a suspicious look on her face.

"No! Your ramen is always my favorite nee-chan! I just realized that I need to eat healthy food if I want to grow." He quickly said not wanting to anger Ayame and Teuchi.

Hearing his explanation, Ayame gave Naruto a smile "It's about time you ate some other food Naruto-kun. Say how about I give you a free large salad with extra vegetables in it." She said happily before her face turned serious "You better eat all of your vegetables because if you don't I will ban you from eating ramen here EVER AGAIN!"

Naruto nodded his head multiple times fearing her banning him from eating ramen.

When his food arrived he was hesitant to eat something new, but after a couple of bites he slowly ate his meal feeling quite satisfied. After a couple of minutes he finally finished his meal feeling quite content.

[Quest Complete!]

Quest Complete! You went to Ramen Ichiraku and ate a healthy meal.

Objective Reward: +50 EXP

Bonus Objective Reward: Finished your vegetables +100 Reputation with Ayame, +100 Reputation with Teuchi

He smiled seeing the quest completion window pop up and was pleasantly surprised at receiving a bonus reward. He also noticed that Ayame and Teuchi didn't see the window appearing in front of him.

'I see! So only I can see the window!" He thought learning yet again more about his Gamer Ability.

You have paid attention to your surroundings your WIS has gone up by 1

"Well time for me to train" Naruto said in excitement wanting to see his skills and learn more about his Gamer's ability.
