"You know this battle will take forever to conclude with our stamina, isn't that funny." Hokage chuckled as he gave Naruto an uppercut and sent him flying into the atmosphere as he was unable to react with his brain addled for a sec

'I am starting to hate people like me.' Naruto thought as he didn't want such a battle again since it could even take months to finish

"Ughh" Naruto threw up blood as he was penetrated through his heart and stuck on Hokage's arm

The look of his eyes was terrifying and Naruto finally understood what kind of monster was fighting him as his senses were shutting down from fear and oppression of the soul.

He continued to spew blood from his mouth and the hole that refused to close up.

"It's over now; you need special methods for people like us." Hokage said in a gentle manner and forced him to sleep

The pressure disappeared and the damaged healed instantly while Naruto floated down to the ground of the arena that had been completely ruined. There were deep trenches, debris and holes that could kill from the fall.

"I hope everyone enjoyed this show. I want you all to know that you all have the power to do these things. You are better than your parents on the biological level, which means higher potential.

Of course something's require special methods but that doesn't mean it is impossible. Hard work is the key, without it all your talent and power is worthless." Hokage spoke to the crowd with a loud and clear voice as he held Naruto

He looked at all of them in the eyes and then continued, "If you have not heard this then let me enlighten you, at your age I was weak and unskilled compared to your some of your parents. Even now you all have better skills than me at the same age.

The problem with all of you is that you lack in experience, danger and persistence. You lack physical strength compared to the old generation which went through it daily so you just need a small step to surpass your parents and make a new future." Hokage said with emotion in his voice that made all of them feel what he felt for them

It was fatherly love and expectations that lit fire to their soul.

Clap Clap

Hokage smiled and waved as he vanished from the arena along with Naruto.


"Congrats, Lord Seventh."

"For what?" Hokage questioned as he appeared in his office and placed Naruto on the sofa

"Getting new and improved fighters" Shikamaru replied as he stood in front of him

"They were already better than us except for the physical department so it's a just a small step. With some work they can break through records easily. Plus, you should be very proud of your son.

I am impressed." Hokage muttered as he patted his shoulder after seeing Shikadai, the boy was impressive and better than everyone in the same generation

"I do my best"

"I am sure, it's your wife. No need to sound smug." Hokage said with a chuckle as he sat in his seat

"So, how was it?"

"He lacks the blessing of the sage and will likely need to learn it manually. But he should surpass me on the same age level without any issue."

"I can see that but…" Shikamaru had grown into a very cautious person; he could see that Naruto was already strong as Toneri saga Hokage with his Sage mode while only using his own power

"He is clear, don't make trouble for him. Give them the required equipment and documents." Hokage said as he looked at Shikamaru

Shika nodded and walked out of the office, "You can wake up now."

Naruto sat up and looked at Hokage questioningly.

"I wanted to talk." Hokage replied as he made a clone to do his work and sent one to look over the city


"Mom, was he serious?" Boruto asked as he walked back home with Adult Hinata

"Yes, your father was very weak back in the days. Even I could beat him in the start but then he had training from good teachers." Hinata replied as she held Hima's hand and walked with a happy smile as she felt Boruto try to open up again

Boruto was surprised at the reply; he didn't really about Naruto's past and avoided asking as he only heard great things. Saving cities to princesses, he had done it all at the age of 13 while here he was soon graduation from the academy and had no expectation of such greatness.

Boruto had put Naruto on pedestal, forgetting that he was indeed human and had to struggle to get here.

"Are you disappointed in me?" Boruto managed to ask the one thing casting heavy shadow in his heart

"Never, you are my little star. I don't mind if you stay weak because that is your choice and if you are happy then I am happy." Hinata replied as she stopped and held his head, looking into his eyes

Boruto felt that was wrong, he didn't want to be protected.

'What if they are gone somewhere then what will happen to us?

Will I able to protect Hima?'

Boruto was happy that Hinata didn't mind him being lazy but that also brought to his attention the thought of the lack of their presence.

"Mom, I want to train. Can we go visit Grandpa?" Boruto asked, he was still not comfortable with his father but that didn't mean he had to stay weak

"Of course, I will also train you both." Hinata said with a huge smile as she held both their hands and walked to the Hyuga clan


"You two are interesting; do you wish to gain power?"

Sarada and Mitsuki found themselves listening to the whispers of the devil when they were about to leave the arena.

"Are you the team mate of Naruto-sama?" Sarada asked

"Yes"

"How will you make us stronger?" Mitsuki questioned

"I will transform you with a special technique that will make you reborn as one of my servant. I talked with your big brother but he said when I am strong as him so I thought you might be interested." Sona replied as she held Byakko, these two were unique so she stopped by before going to pick up her new servant

"You believe that I am weaker than you?" Mitsuki stared at her with a steely gaze; it was insulting to him to be looked down upon. He knew that his powers surpassed all the previous generation by a long shot, it was impossible for anyone but Naruto to win against him. Even then Naruto was two years older than him so the difference could be made up.

"Of course, do you want to try?" Sona looked at him challengingly while flaring her dark aura to push down on him

"Sorry, we are not interested. Natural growth is better so excuse us." Sarada spoke up before a fight took place and dragged Mitsuki away as he was about lash out

'She is stronger than me. How? I am father's success.' Mitsuki felt something wrong in his heart that he was unable to understand

"Well, I guess Shin Jr. will have to do." Sona muttered with a smile as she flew towards an orphanage at the outskirts of the village run by Kabuto


Sumire looked at the white ceiling thinking to herself, how her father could have done this to her. She had loved him and respected him but all she got in return was betrayal.

'He tried to sacrifice me.

He put controls in my mind.' Sumire thought with a blank expression as her world had broken down

"You don't need to see that man as a father; he was disqualified since he started thinking of you as a pawn. There is nothing wrong with you."

"Lord Seventh" Sumire got up to greet the Hokage

"Relax; I am here to talk to you. I know you are feeling bad so talk to me and I will try to help." Hokage said gently as he patted her head

Sumire felt the warmth in those words and tears poured out uncontrollably as she hugged him tightly.

"I tried so hard.

I tried so hard but but even then this happened." Sumire spoke in broken words as she let out her sadness

"It was not your fault, you are a good kid. A beautiful child with a kind heart." Hokage said as he hugged the little girl

Sumire spent some time with his warmth while she started thinking of trying to do better as the Hokage had said.

'I will protect Boruto.' Sumire remembered that smile and his words, she felt adoration for the boy and now she had a bigger reason to follow her heart


Tsunade stood beside Kakashi as the arena cleared out, they had watched the battle from VIP section and no one except Hokage knew about their presence.

"We really failed him, didn't we?" Tsunade muttered as she finally spoke after a long silence

These were things she had thought a lot in the past but had been buried by the happiness of peace and family.

"Yes, I really did fail him." Kakashi said in a calm tone, seeing the result of actually training the boy. He was a monster and could beat both of them at the same time with those skills

"I don't think he knows about us from what Naruto told me." Tsunade sighed and sat down on her seat as she remembered talking to the Hokage, who mentioned that she should get to know him as he never met anyone from the family

"I have heard." Kakashi wondered what were the consequences of that choice but Hokage warned him not to ask, which implied the consequence was dire

"The world most likely perished since he is here." Tsunade reminded him of the ultimate threat

"Yeah, do you think it will follow here?"

"Does it matter; even Toneri could take Kaguya now unless she somehow ate the whole universe. Then we are fucked." Tsunade replied while taking the whole bottle of sake to wet her dry lips

"That's a death flag you are setting up, Lady Tsunade. Please go and loose some money before it becomes true."

"Haha, burn those books first." Tsunade laughed sarcastically while thinking of how she was going to mother this Naruto

'A challenge worse than ever.' She realized this Naruto was reserved when it came to Konoha


"I didn't think I will ever be a chuunin. Guess the shinobi life is set for me." Naruto muttered as he tied the headband on his right leg.

He was wearing red shirt with black pants and jacket with the Uzumaki spiral at the back. Naruto didn't seem to be carrying any weapon to take his enemies by surprise as the equipment was sealed and his sword was just invisible as it rested on his back.

"It's meant for us. We will always end up fighting for the good so the crown cannot be escaped. For now I will just assign your team missions in the city."

"Who will be leading us?"

"No one, you are the leader and another member will join you."

"Who?"

"A surprise"

"I don't like surprises"

"I don't really care so shoo now." Hokage shooed him away with his wind control and Naruto found himself falling through the window

'He is really childish for an adult, guess I didn't become a cranky old man.' Naruto thought as he landed on the street and looked around at the unfamiliar place

He started walking and his feet unconsciously took him towards the place where his heart belonged, The Higurashi weapon shop.

Naruto found the place completely alien as it had changed its machinery and style. His body felt heavy and Naruto didn't know whether he should enter.

Naruto was concentrated on the gate when he heard footsteps and quickly jumped to an adjacent building without leaving a trace.

His heart almost popped out and he felt weak in his legs as he saw his teacher.
