I bet you guys weren't expecting something so soon. Here is the start of a story I've been thinking of.


Chapter 1:

- Play Theater D - by MYTH & ROID -

It's been thirteen years. Thirteen years since the dreaded Kyuubi incident that struck the village. The force of nature itself the collasal 9 tailed fox regarded as a demon struck a major blow to the village's military might as they suffered many casualties from it but none hit them harder than the death of their strongest shinobi and Yondaime Hokage Namikaze Minato.

But in it's place the village might have gained something or someone far greater. And that something that was far greater, was in the hands of one Shimura Danzo.

The old warhawk stood on the opposite side of a glass window looking into an all white room. In the center of the room there was a pit filled with metal spikes and dangling above it was a motionless figure completely hidden in a full body straight jacket if not for the strands of golden locks that poked through the head wrappings.

Two nondescript root shinobi entered into the white chamber situating themselves on top of the spikes fingering their tantos at the ready.

Danzo nooded to the loyal shinobi before approaching the mic.

"We will be starting test 123 of the container's advancement."

The seconds ticked by as if the drones were waiting for something to happen. Seeing that there was no change they pointed their swords at the dangling individual. They were ordered to kill their target to the best of their ability so that's the order they would carry out.

Both leaped from the spikes they they stood upon at a speed only a ninja could have and held their swords to severa the figure where the midsection would be. They reached the figure almost instantly at that range. The moment their blades were within inches of the individual's body it was like time slowed down as the figures eyes snapped open through the bandages.

Everything changed from what was expected by most at that moment.

There was the sounds of various noises, screams, metal clashing, and finally crunching noise. All the while Danzo watched expressionless though his eye start to twitch, flinching when the window suddenly became coated in a spray of red from the bodily fluids of one of the unfortunate soldiers or maybe even both of them.

"...Another failure."

*Crash!*

One of the large metal spikes broke through the window and travelled to embed itself in the wall behind Danzo.

"Danzo-ojisan that's not very nice. You started another test while I was sleeping!" The boy was sitting up on the side of the metal spike with his body still restrained except for his legs. The shocking detail would be those blue eyes of his that had a glow about them that betrayed the boy's innocent demeanor. The other shocking detail would be that not a speck of blood could be seen upon the boy's body yet inside the room was a massacre that only took less than a minute to be created.

"Uzumaki..." Danzo uttered unreadibly while his other Root agents just stood at attention while a few kept their eye on the boy. Uzumaki Naruto was the boy's name. He was 13 years old and had been working with Danzo since he was 7. The boy should have been a mindless weapon of his but he was just too willful and unpredictable along with the fact they had a certain agreement in place.


- 6 Years Ago -

"Are you here to help me or hurt me like everyone else?" Danzo stood in front of a small boy who was dressed in nothing but rags and was holding a bloodied metal rod of sorts. He was covered in a few cuts and bruises along his arms and cheek however one would say he came off lucky. There were a few civilians around him and a couple shinobi and none were still breathing, some not even in one piece anymore. The boy looked tired and looked to have a wild look in his big yet exhausted blue eyes. The boy despite the situation gave off so much life that it was both eery and inspiring.

"I mean you know harm boy. I simply wish to make you strong so that you need not fear what might happen in your lonely nights.

The boy twitched and gained a look of hope for long enough for Danzo to catch. Long enough so that he could see it shift into a level of defensiveness as the boy's pupils turned into slits and his hair blew wildly.

"I've been on my own long enough and betrayed enough to know when someone wants to use me." The ground under him started to shake and crack as small tremors were sent through them from the one hand he had flat to the ground.

Danzo looked unperturbed despite being slightly unnerved by the boy and his overly aware response in general.

"I won't like as it is indeed my intention to turn you into a weapon."

"The old man said that I should forgive everyone even after what they've done to me. Everyone has it out for me and I feel like it has something to do with this."

The boy pulled his shirt up and showed a seal show up on his stomach though it was fuzzy and flickered in and out like static oddly enough. Danzo's eye's widened slightly at seeing the boy even away of the seal. The boy grinned widely at seeing the man surprised. I'm a kid but I'm not stupid. You were on the old man's old team right? You know what this seal is all about don't you? Is that why you are here? You come at a moment when I'm weak to give me an off? You probably also waited till I should enough promise?"

Danzo started to discretely pump chakra into his other eye in preparation. This boy was too smart for his own good. There was no way he would be able to harmlessly convince the child this time.

The boy stood straight and pointed the rod dead at Danzo.

"Hold on you don't have to use any jutsu on me you haven't even heard my answer yet!"

Danzo almost visibly stumbled at getting called out. 'He could sense my use of chakra?! If he was more knowledgable then he might have even been able to figure out that existence of my recently acquired Sharingan.'

"What is it boy?"

He pouted at Danzo's tone. "My name is Uzumaki Naruto not boy datebayo! I'll become this villages weapon if on the deal that you explain what this thing on my stomach is and that you give me some kind of compensation whether it's food or money so I can live better."

Danzo thought it over believing it was simple enough but frowned. "That's a simple trade off but I can just as easily destroy your mind and make you a loyal drone of mine by force."

Naruto looked downtrodden hearing that before his expression showed furious backbone as he looked back up at Danzo and stood strong sliding into a more offensive posture.

"Fine then just try to control me. I promise it won't be easy for you. I'm all alone so I have nothing left to lose. If I can't even decide my future I might as well die now!" He snarled as his fangs sharpened. Danzo couldn't believe his eyes win an almost invisible doom of energy formed around Naruto and the traces of a chain made of chakra started to emerge out of his neck.

'This boy is like a caged animal and he can even has the potential of the fabled chains of the Uzumaki apparently? Investing in this boy could definitely be a boon.

"Fair enough."

Naruto blinked as he lost his threatening presence. "Huh?"

"I will give you a safe haven. But I will break you down and gauge your limits and break your body down and if your mind breaks you will be controlled by me. However if you make it to graduation age I will allow you to become a shinobi of the Leaf. Of course you will continue to attend the academy to keep Sarutobi unaware."

Naruto looked at him with his big blue eyes holding traces of hope, suspicion, and loneliness. Someone was willing to work with him.

"Deal!"


Of the numerous tests the boy passed all of them one way or another. The boy was a prodigy and even had a semi-passive bloodline that he believed was unique to him alone along with the Uzumaki Chakra Chains. A Kekkai Jōshō of a literally magnitude.

"The failure was on my part. The graduation exams are in a few days. Be sure that you attend them so that I know at least some of these efforts weren't for naught."

Naruto smiled at him happily as he watched him go. He closed his eyes and let out a deep breath before cracking his neck to the side sharply and through pure power the straight jacket was torn apart as he forced it off him with his arms and strength.

"This will be fun! I can be me now!"

- THE END -

AN: Yep there you go. This story can be seen as the spiritual successor to my first story Triumvirate. I wanted to make Naruto's mechanics simipler so that I could use them fully easier. He will be badass don't worry. It also won't be all curb stomping in this either as he may use his brain to outsmart those he can't beat on his own in skill. And his new bloodline is something I've been messing around with in my head a while now and is a favorite.

Anyway here you guys go. How this gets updated will be based on reviews. So be sure to review and also check out my deviantart ZRAIARZ.

Some reason Fanfiction is being an ass again and it's not letting me see reviews to respond to on this site for my last chapter posting for the DxD story again even though i can see them through my email. I do see your reviews guys the site is just being stupid.
