This was the original version of How Naruto Screwed with History. In retrospect, this was a bad execution of the story. While I'm not a good writer, I am trying to improve. Hence the rewrite, but some readers genuinely loved this story so for that reason I'm putting up the original version. enjoy.
THE FOLLOWING IS A NON PROFIT FAN BASED FICTION. NARUTO AND NARUTO SHIPPUDEN ARE OWNED BY STUDIO PERRIOT, TV TOKYO, VIZ MEDIA AND MASASHI KISHIMOTO. PLEASE SUPPORT THE OFFICIAL RELEASE.
Two Days After the Defeat of Pain, Behind the Hokage Mountain, Konohagakure no Sato, Narutoverse 2.
"Is this it Kakashi sensei?" the question was asked by a sun kissed blonde haired boy of age sixteen. He had cerulean blue eyes and a set of three whisker marks on each cheek. He had lightly tanned skin and there were little to no trace amounts of baby fat on his face. Two months ago, one could've said he had a rather goofish look compared to most ninja, however the training with the Toads of Mt. Myoboku had taken a great and fruitful stress on his body as he had toned it up to the proper shape and quite a fan girl inducing one as well. This teen is none other than Naruto Uzumaki, son of the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze.
A shift in time had occurred in this universe.
He had learned about his father two days ago while he was in the Tailed Beast Berserker Mode*, he had all but lost his sanity and the great Kyuubi no Kitsune would've escaped if it wasn't for the genius integrity of the Fourth Hokage who not only placed a residue amount of chakra in case the seal weakened but also he had placed a seal that transferred all of the Yondaime's knowledge of pretty much everything he knew and had learned throughout his life. Including his prized jutsu that had earned him the threat of the SS Rank, Flee on Sight status. Naruto had used it to a little extent as he had regained control from the beast that embodied hatred and fought off the last of the Six Paths of Pain. He then convinced the real Pain to give up on revenge and Nagato had brought back all those he had killed in the Leaf as his final act of redemption. He later told his sensei, who was the former student of the Yondaime, about his heritage and accompanied him here.
Now he is standing near the house of his once alive parents. It was a moderately two storied house. He could tell that there were Seals around the place as he knew from his father's transferred knowledge and the fact that he had been the only who had entered the compound. His sensei and jounin leader, Kakashi Hatake the Copy Ninja could not enter.
"Yes Naruto." He said with his signature eye smile. "This is indeed your parents house. So what will you do now?"
"Well. The Masked Man is still out there." Naruto said as a hateful and raging look appeared on his face at the mention of the man who had orphaned him. "I need to learn everything Tou-san and Kaa-chan left behind if I am going to get stronger. From what I learned from Tou-san as he gave me nearly all his knowledge and specific memories, that guy can turn intangible and basically pull anything into his eye. It's even better than the Hirashin / Flying Thunder God in some aspects. But hopefully, I'll be able to take it up a notch since I know how it works."
"Sensei left you quite a gift didn't he Naruto?" Kakashi asked as Naruto gave his signature foxy grin and nodded. Kakashi then had a solemn look on his face. "But I have to apologize Naruto. I'm sorry I couldn't tell you who your parents were. I reall-"
"It's alright Kakashi-sensei." Naruto replied quite cheerfully. Kakashi often wondered how this boy remained cheerful despite all the shit that was thrown his way during his childhood. He only became acknowledged two days ago by the village as the worthy shinobi he is. "I think I understand it a bit. Tou-san had many enemies, so it was only natural that they would come after the Kiiroi Senko's son. Kaa-chan was a former ANBU as well who had quite a bounty on her. So I guess I can understand why I wasn't told."
"You truly are one of a kind you know that Naruto?" Kakashi said as he looked proudly at his student. The loud mouthed, neon orange wearing genin who was later made chunnin after he returned was now a Sage. A level so powerful, that only a handful of people in the world had achieved. The Legendary Rikoudo Sennin, Hashirama Senju, Jiraiya the Toad Sage and Minato Namikaze. " Well I guess I'll see you later Naruto. Ja ne." Kakashi said as he shunshined away in a flicker of leaves.
Naruto then entered his house and saw the great amount of dust it had collected in the last sixteen years. This was his room. Thankfully due to his father's knowledge he pretty much knew how this place was. After a storm of clones had cleaned the entire place out, he explored his house. He found his parents room. The journals they made. Their little notes on their secret marriage, that only a handful of people knew. The Baby Room they had made for him and of course the various pictures of his parents. Naruto was a bit weirded out by the fact that he thought his mother was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. He only prayed that he got a girl like this in his life, her greatest feature to him was undoubtedly her long, flowing red hair that he found entrancing.
After shoving off such thoughts he started to see all the jutsu his parents had kept. He took out the Advanced Chakra Detection Paper and channeled his chakra through it. This was made specifically by the Toads of their sacred land to find out how many affinities the person is capable of whereas normal Chakra Paper only shows the dominant chakra natures. The paper split into three parts. One of them completely shredded into wind, the other turned dripping wet and the final piece of paper wrinkled up into a ball. From what he received, his mother had wind and water nature; his father on the other hand had lightning and wind. So he had inherited all three chakra natures. He then scouted the house and finally found the scrolls he was looking for. The entire sealing volumes of Uzushiogakure, Ninjutsu and Taijutsu scrolls and finally the specially crafted Tri Pronged Kunai that his father was famous for.
"Kage Bunshin don't fail me now." Naruto muttered as he summoned more than a hundred clones. "We've got a lot of work to do."
"Hai Oyabun!" the clones replied and each 25 of them took the fuuinjutsu scrolls and taijutsu ones; while fifty of them took the ninjutsu ones.
Timeskip: Twenty Five Days after Post Five Kage Summit Arc, after Great Elder Sage had told Naruto about meeting a certain Octopus who would help him, Hokage's Temp Office.
"Yo Baa-chan." Naruto said as he normally greeted the Godaime Hokage Tsunade Senju, the strongest woman on the planet. "Glad to see you're up and about." Said woman who undoubtedly was blessed with the greatest assets a woman could have raised an eyebrow at his appearance.
Naruto had changed his clothing to a great degree after he realized it was time to move on from the greatness of orange to a bit more subtle shade. He now wore a dark grey full sleeved shirt, dark blue pants and the bright green chunnin jacket. His hair was now even more untamed as he had thinned out and muscled out properly due to the rapid spam of Shadow Clones and his body breaking, muscle tearing, nerve numbing training methods. Needless to say his recently founded fan club had increased by leaps and bounds. Naruto Uzumaki had learned the true horror about fan girls.
"Even now you call me that brat." Tsunade said as she looked at him. "Alright brat I don't feel like wasting time so I'm going to cut straight to the point. One take off that chunnin jacket and take this. From now on you're officially a jounin." Tsunade said as she pointed at darker, olive green standard Jounin flak jacket on her desk in her new and temporary office. Naruto beamed up in excitement and took off his old chunnin jacket and sealed it into his arm. Tsunade was a bit surprised, two months ago he wasn't that good at Fuuinjutsu now he did at seamlessly. She smiled at his progress.
"Yatta." Naruto said as he put on Jounin jacket. "So… you're gonna give me the hat now Baa-chan?" Naruto asked with wide eyes as Tsunade's eyebrow twitched in annoyance.
"Not in a decade." She said as Naruto dropped down in disappointment as dark clouds hung over his head. She remembered her grandfather doing this as well. He called it his 'Comfort Zone' after Mito-obaa-chan used to give him quite a lashing. "Anyways I have a SS Ranked Mission for you Naruto." As if on cue, Naruto beamed up more and Tsunade had to sweat drop at his near bipolar behavior.
"What is it Baa-chan?" Naruto asked with vigor. "Tell me tell me!"
"Urusai!" She yelled before throwing a pen which struck him and a bump appeared on his head. "You're going to go on a training trip along with a team, to an island where you'll hopefully be able to master the Kyuubi's power."
"Kyuubi's power? Sorry Baa-chan but I just finished fixing my training routine with Paa. They even set up everything there. You know that time travels relatively slower there and with my Shadow Clones I get years of experience." Naruto said trying to make a valid point which he did surprisingly. "Besides who's going to train me? And how long will it take me to get there?"
"The trip itself will take a month and a half. Then you'll start to train there to master the Fox's power." Tsunade said as Naruto groaned at the statement.
"I could easily get years of training in that time. Besides I am so close to making new forms of the Rasengan and taking the Hiraishin to new level. I can even throw the Rasenshuriken without Sage Mode now." Naruto said as he grumbled like a child. "Besides who could be a better teacher than the Toads?"
"That would be a Jinchuriki who has mastered the power of his Bijuu." Naruto raised an eyebrow at Tsunade's words. Hook, line and sinker. Naruto was now officially interested. This would also be a good way to keep him out of the War that was about to be waged for him and the Eight Tails. "Killer B the brother of the Raikage and the Jinchuuriki of the-"
"Eight Tails." Naruto said as Tsunade looked at him curiously. "Killer B's bijuu has an octopus tentacle from what I learned from the few memories Tou-san left. He's gotta be the one Super Geezer Sage was talking about."
"All the more reason for you to go there brat. Alright what's with that expression on your face?" Tsunade asked as she looked the grumpy look on his face.
"It's just. A month and a half to get there. I mean I could train to get better in that time. If only there was some way to get there in a moments notice from Mt. Myoboku." Naruto thought as Tsunade merely stared at the sheer density of his mind. He did have something like that. Then a few moments later, the metaphorical bulb lit up. "I know." Naruto said as he took out one of his Tri Pronged Kunai. "Give this to the team that will go with me and tell them to launch the kunai when they're there. I'll be going to get some ramen before I leave today to get back to the Toads."
"Seriously brat." Tsunade said. "What am I going to do with you? Oh and by the way did you decide on what to tell Hinata?"
"No not really. I just don't like her like that." Naruto said with a sad sigh. "In fact if I was older I'd probably date someone as beautiful as you." Naruto said as he had his hands in his pockets and was idly looking at the ground as he kicked invisible dust, while Tsunade blushed a bit at the words the blonde had said before her.
'Damn that gaki!" Tsunade thought as she finally fought down the blush. It had been a long time since someone had called her that, despite the fact that Jiraiya said it for years but she didn't feel anything for him. Just like Naruto didn't feel anything for Hinata. The thing with Sakura was also nothing more than a crush. In fact, Naruto wasn't interested in any girls of the village though he did get interested when he heard about the Mizukage. That confirmed he was straight unlike the rumors she heard about something called 'NaruSasu'. She shivered at the thought of that, yet she liked it for some reason.
Was it wrong for a woman to have sexual interests?
"Anyways. I'll be going to get some ramen. Haven't had that in nearly a week." Naruto said as he disappeared in a yellow flash.
"That brat." Tsunade said as she poured some sake. "If you were older huh? Stupid gaki and his mouth doesn't even realize the sort of things he says at times." Tsunade laughed a bit as she poured some sake for herself. In her mind she played out a scenario of what would happen if she did end up with the blonde gaki. Of course, he'd have to be significantly older and she'd of course have to be younger.
Would she be with someone like that? Who knows what the Legendary Sucker thinks in her mind?
Timeskip: A month and a half later, Mindscape, After absorbing the Kyuubi's power and accessing Nine Tails Chakra Mode, Secret Room, The Temple, Genbu Island.
"So," Kushina said slyly as Naruto knew what exactly she was about to say "heard you had a crush on your Kaa-chan?" She giggled a bit at his despair.
"Yameru Kaa-chan!" Naruto grumbled out as he had embarrassing stains of red on his cheeks. "Besides it's not my fault you're that beautiful with your violet eyes, red hair and that face. I mean anyone would be an idiot to not have a crush on you dattebayo!" Naruto said as he accusingly pointed a finger at his mother who first blushed but tried to play it off by laughing at his misery once more.
'Actually… he is cuter than Minato was at that age with the whisker marks. Come to think of it he even has a better body- BAD! BAD KUSHINA! That's your sochi!' Kushina thought inside her mind. "It's alright sochi! Who knows maybe one day you'll find a girl like me dattebane."
"Yeah!" Naruto replied vigorously. "Say Kaa-chan how much time do you have left?"
"Not much." Kushina replied sadly. She then looked at her son knowing that she only had a few select words left to say.
(AN: Not going to write about the whole Kushina saying goodbye to Naruto. The words literally stab my heart every time I remember those words so gonna skip em and go all the way to the war.)
Timeskip: Five Days After Naruto had mastered the Kyuubi's chakra, Kaminari no Kuni / Land of Lightning, Battleground of the Fourth Great Ninja War.
"No Kakashi stop!" an Imperfect Resurrected Minato said as he prepared to flash to his student. Kakashi had emerged from the Kamui Dimension and had his signature technique the Raikiri / Lightning Cutter ready in his right arm.
Naruto and Sasuke had managed to defeat Obito who had become the imperfect Jinchuuriki of the Juubi. After defeating him, Naruto was able to pull out all the Tailed Beasts out of him as they had given him a fair amount of their own chakra when they had entered the shared mindscape. The Edo Tensei version of the real Madara Uchiha was battling the Edo Tensei Hashirama Senju and was finally winning as he stabbed him with the Chakra Disruption Rods and was absorbing his Sage Jutsu.
Madara had signaled Black Zetsu to take over his body but Naruto had gotten there in the mean time to kill Black Zetsu who in his dying moments revealed that his real plan was to bring back Kaguya Otsutsuki, the mother of the Sage of Six Paths. Naruto was glad that he had managed to flash to Zetsu and kill him, thus making sure that not only does Kaguya not come back but also that he couldn't possess Obito's body to use Rinne Rebirth.
Then another shift in time occurred.
*SQUELCH*
Kakashi's famed Lightning Blade had pierced the frame of Obito. More precisely, he had stabbed Obito right in the chest as blood flew everywhere. Kakashi Hatake had killed his other teammate. The former teammate which had taught him a lesson to not abandon your comrades had lost his mind to insanity. It was up to Kakashi to end this feud and he did just that. He could live with the burden and the shame, he had been doing that for nearly more than half his life. Minato appeared a bit too late. Kakashi knelt beside his friend who took his last breaths.
"B-Bakashi" Obito said with a sad laugh as Kakashi looked at him remembering the nickname Obito had given to him during the time of their rivalry. "Looks like I-I finally get to meet Rin. S-S-Sorry if I caused you….." Obito did not get to finish as his final breaths left his body.
Obito Uchiha had died. Naruto Uzumaki was sadly looking at him. In his final moments he had realized that Obito had regrets, but a part of him didn't stop Kakashi. Obito had this coming to him. Minato and Kakashi solemnly looked at the former member of their four man shinobi cell. Then a great push of furious anger came.
Madara Uchiha was trying to kill them with his glare.
"Y-YOU!" Madara yelled out. "You ruined everything!" Madara yelled out like a mad man as his dark chakra flared everywhere. As an Edo Tensei he had an unlimited amount of chakra. It kept replenishing even if great injury was cause to him, though the process would be bit slow if the damage to his ever reforming body was too great to handle at times. He put out his hand as a black sphere formed in it and rushed up to the sky.
"Chibaku Tensei / Planetary Devastation!" Madara yelled as the great pull of gravity started its work and everything was rushing upwards. No one would live anymore. All his plans had been ruined. He could not come back to life anymore. Even though, he learned that Zetsu had planned to betray him he could've somehow changed to the situation to benefit himself.
Naruto then used the last of his largely depleted chakra to throw two jutsu at it. Fuuton: Rasenshuriken / Wind Style: Spiraling Shuriken and Suiton: Rasenhahonryuu / Water Style: Spiraling Ripping Torrent, the two attacks had been pulled in by the inescapable pull of the planetoid forming jutsu and hit it right at the center. Needless, to say the two combined S Rank Jutsu had destroyed the core of Planetary Devastation and now the earth fell just as Naruto fell to his knees. He still had one more problem to take care of.
Madara was the last obstacle.
The last true hurdle before he could bring the peace that Jiraiya had been searching for so long. He saw that Madara was looking at him furiously and was going to kill him. Naruto didn't have much chakra left, and if he did use the last of it he'd end up dying of exhaustion. He could use that jutsu he had been working on, but he needed a large amount of chakra for it. All the members of the Allied Shinobi Force stood up in unison as they wouldn't let Madara reach their de facto leader. However, the true blow came when Sasuke all of a sudden stabbed Naruto with his chokuto. Naruto was bleeding and badly. Everyone simply stared in shock at the betrayal.
Sasuke explained that his goal was to kill the Five Kage from the beginning to stage a revolution. That was his ideal of becoming the Hokage. Naruto Uzumaki had gotten much, much stronger than Sasuke and he himself had admitted that. Not a moment later, Sasuke's head fell from his shoulders who couldn't react in time to Tobirama and Minato who had used their Hiraishin to teleport to Naruto to kill Sasuke. The Uchiha Traitor was finally dead. The world had been officially rid of any and all living Uchiha. One of the two legacies left behind by the Sage of Six Paths had been erased. In essence, the Uchiha Curse of Hatred had finally been extinguished. Naruto did not feel remorse for the teme. He had shown to the very end that he did not care about anyone other than himself.
"Naruto!" Minato said as Naruto's vision was fading. "Hang in there! We're going to help you."
"I-It-s alright Tou-san." Naruto said weakly as he smiled. "I guess this is it then." Naruto said but a loud voice begged to differ.
"Like hell you are!" Son Goku the Yonbi yelled out. Naruto's head was turned around lightly by his reanimated father, whose tears were falling on the visage of his nearly dying son. "You think we're just going to let you die like that Fishcake!"
"You freed us. Saving you is the least we can do!"
"Here take our chakra kid."
"This will put your body in pain but your wound will heal in no time. You'll be able to fight him and put that Uchiha bastard down!"
Naruto didn't know to whom each voice belonged but he knew that most of them were saying it, but he knew that the last one came from Kurama though it sounded darker, the same fox he had befriended. He weakly nodded and smiled, before he spoke with a low voice.
"Shukaku, Matatabi, Isobu, Son Goku, Kokuo, Saiken, Chomei, Gyuki, Kurama…. Arigato." Naruto said as he suddenly felt a great ripping warmth in his body. His body felt like it had been stabbed by a thousand needles. But he also felt power surging through him. He stood up and saw that his chakra had returned with a vengeance. He rushed at Madara without a single thought and saw that the bastard was incapable of using the Kamui like Obito, which Naruto was glad for but saw that people just foamed from their mouths upon contact with his Mangekyou. Naruto guessed that he was capable of using Tsukuyomi. What made it worse was the fact that he could also use Enton/ Inferno Style like Sasuke, though that did not surprise Naruto as he remembered the Ghost of the Uchiha unleashing a single jutsu that nearly decimated the entire battalion.
Naruto knew that engaging Madara in a jutsu battle would be pointless and was using his final trump card. He had seen that the Chakra Disruption Blade had temporarily stuck into Hashirama despite the fact that he had been an Edo Tensei. Naruto was throwing his Tri Pronged Kunai and soon enough he knew that a perfect square had been formed. He had made this technique specifically so that the Masked Bastard could not escape from the jutsu using his own Jikuukan Ninjutsu / Space Time Ninjutsu. Since Madara couldn't use it Naruto took it as a plus point, but Obito was no Madara that man had no equal save Hashirama and Naruto had no choice but to make the ultimate sacrifice.
'Is this what Tou-san and Kaa-chan felt like when they saved me?' Naruto thought as his Sage Mode hand caught the Chakra Disruption Blade.
'Is this what Hokage jiji felt like when he tried to kill Hebi-teme knowing he was going to die?' Naruto thought as he finally landed the decisive blow on Madara with a fist to his face.
'Is this what you felt when you saved me Neji knowing full well that you'll die?' Naruto said as he stabbed Madara with his own black blade as the undead Uchiha screamed in pain. He couldn't even absorb the Sage Jutsu Naruto was using as it was different from Hashirama's whose one was purely depended on Yang Release.
'So this is what it feels like… to save someone other than yourself' Naruto thought with a smile knowing that his end was here as well.
"This is it Madara." Naruto said as he stabbed himself with the other end of the blade as he grabbed onto Madara in a hugging fashion. Madara himself was stunned at what Naruto was doing. Naruto had his arms wrapped around him and made the ram seal.
"Hiraishin Kinjutsu: Jikuukan Shometsu Boidu / Flying Thunder God Forbidden Technique: Space Time Annihilation Void" Naruto said with a smile. A very thin layer of black chakra erupted from the four Hiraishin kunai surrounding the two shinobi as a small worm hole emerged on top of them. Naruto grinned as he saw the void of absolute hopelessness he had conjured. He actually had to study to make this jutsu work, and studying was a far greater pain than anything else in the world, even the stab mark on his body that was yet to be fully healed. "I didn't have any plans to die… but if it means that this world will survive and you will die. It's a price I'm willing to pay."
"What have you done?" Madara said in horror as he felt his feet leaving the ground. "Do you truly wish to die for his hellish planet?"
"Simple Madara. I ruptured a hole in time space. Even I don't know where this goes. Given you're an Edo Tensei you'll probably turn to dust and given how I am dying from this wound and the excessive chakra that's burning my coils, I'll probably die and end up in space."
"You fool." Madara said. "You've doomed us both you brat."
"Maybe but its my decision to make. After all, I never go back on my word." Naruto said with a smile and Madara had to smirk in his last moment at the guts of the kid before him.
"Hn." Madara grunted for one last time as they were both being pulled towards the worm hole. "At least you follow through with your conviction. That's something I can respect even from a brat like you."
"Looks like Madara Uchiha does have a heart." Naruto chuckled out. They were rotating slowly as he saw his father and friends for one last time. "Sorry everyone! Looks like I couldn't become Hokage-ttebayo! But don't worry. I had you guys so it more than makes up for it. I'll be seeing you and Kaa-chan soon, Tou-san!" Naruto said before both shinobi were sucked in by the worm hole. The barrier around the four kunai vanished as well as the kunai which were sucked into the worm hole.
Naruto Uzumaki was gone. The Hero of the Fourth Great Ninja War had disappeared along with Madara Uchiha, the greatest living form of chaos that ever walked on this planet. The people of the shinobi world mourned for the loss of their hero as he had given up his life to save the world. He had died with a smile on his face. He did it all to achieve the peace that would now ensue on this planet.
Thus ended the great tale.
The Tale of Naruto Uzumaki
Author: Or that's what people thought. Now let's find out what actually happened to the person who had done this jutsu.
Dimensional Gap, The Rip In the Space Time Continuum, Fanfiction Multiverse.
Naruto and Madara were travelling at the speed of light. They were rushing past planets, stars and other celestial bodies as they saw things they could never imagine.
A orange clad man with golden spiky hair fighting a pink like creature.
A bald man wearing a yellow suit punching everything out of existence.
A blonde haired man who could stop time while fighting a cap wearing man. Astral figures emerged from the both of them while one of them shouted 'Ora' and the other 'Muda'.
Cannibalistic giants that raged against normal sized humans with blades in their hands.
Men with swords that glowed and buzzed when the struck against each other as all of them had near clothes of black kimono and white hakama.
A small yellow rat like creature emitting electricity while fighting another dragon like creature.
Some strange machines in space as they flew and one blue suited man with spiky hair and a cigarette in his mouth smirked.
A man fully clad in black as he had a slab of iron on his back that was too large to be called a sword.
A boy with smooth brown hair writing names into a note book while he took a chip with his right hand and...ate it!
They even saw different versions of themselves as well. One of the Naruto was fighting Itachi in Suna. One of them looked like he was a bit older and married to Hinata. Another Naruto was wearing the same armor as Madara. While one of the Naruto had three siblings.
And some men just standing with pieces of wooden sticks out of which light flew out and they were pointing at each other while yelling absolute nonsense.
"Kurama are you seeing this?!" Naruto got no reply. "Oi KURAMA! Damn it!" Naruto cried out a bit. He really wanted to hear the fox's voice one last time. He had been there with him for the past seventeen years of his life.
Now he was alone, the Bijuu must've not been allowed to leave that Space Time Continuum, but it seemed like that Naruto could still feel their chakra inside his body. Speaking of chakra. His eyes shot to Madara whose literal soul was being pulled out of his mouth as a death like god was seen towering over them with a vicious face. The Death God disappeared after the soul was taken.
Then the unexpected happened. Madara's Edo Tensei body that was now crumbling into paper like objects had rushed to him and were being fused with his body. Naruto screamed out in pain as he received all of Madara's memories and knowledge. Everything that Madara knew, felt and experienced was being tattooed and re-experienced by Naruto.
"One day Hashirama we'll be able to reach our dream" A young Madara said to an equally young Hashirama.
"It looks like we won't be able to show our guts huh?" Madara asked Hashirama as he stood by with his father and brother.
"Izuna! Hang in there" Madara said as he cried holding the body of his dying brother. "Don't worry-"
"Take my eyes Nii-sama" Izuna said as he knew he wasn't going to make it. "It's the least I can do."
Madara and Hashirama had fought for entire twenty four hours and after a final revelation, he had made peace with Hashirama. The Village Hidden in the Leaves was born.
Madara came back to life with Izanagi and was slowly making his base at Mountain Graveyard as he prepared to fuse his body with Hashirama's cells.
A final memory as Madara had died believing that he gave his plans to Obito to continue the Eye of the Moon Plan.
Another life, another planet.
In this vast multitude of the various universe, exist several universes.
Similar yet different.
Constants and variables.
A person is a hero in one realm, but a villain in another.
Another realm exists that is a perfect copy of another one which exists in its own separate realm of reality.
The outcome of one universe does not determine the other.
Constants and variables indeed.
However, at times an anomaly rises in the equation that brings about a result that was both unexpected and impossible.
Hence the past can be changed if one were to travel back in time, but only because it was in another dimension.
Reference to: The Multiverse Theory. And now back to the plot.
Ta no Kuni / Land of Rice, Kenso no Kuni, Earth, Narutoverse 3.
A strange large hole appeared in the sky. A single figure came out of it and crashed on to the plain grassy field. A relatively old man was nearby and decided to investigate the place. He saw the man lying on the ground and decided to help him. This was a neutral nation that had housed no shinobi as of yet. So if a man just lies around with blood leaking out of his body, someone would be naturally inclined to help that injured person.
Two Days Later, Somwhere in a Room in a Generic House, Land of Rice.
"Kuso." A deep yet innocent voice said. "What hit me?"
The person got up and observed himself. He had bandages wrapped around his chest and abdomen. The man then stood up and got out of the house. He saw the lake nearby and immediately rushed there to drink some water. He dove his face in and started drinking like a horse as he took his large amounts of liquid forms of hydrogen and oxygen. His quench had finally lessened as he took his head out and breathed heavily. He took some time to breath before he finally looked down back at the water and screamed in surprise.
"WHAT THE FUCK?!"
The most dignifying and intelligent answer he could come up with. He saw his own reflection once more. He had light tanned skin, onyx eyes that had a bit of life in them. His face was smooth, chiseled and had handsome features. He had raven spiky hair that was a bit tame. The hair itself came down all the way to his back. He stood up and observed himself. He also felt taller for some reason. He took off his bandages and saw that his muscles were even more well developed than before and he suddenly remembered all the memories he had received. The man reached over to the lake to see his reflection once more.
"Why do I look a lot like Madara-teme?" the man said. "I still have some features of my own. Maybe this is a genjutsu KAI!" the man said as he made the ram hand seal.
"Okay okay calm down! Maybe this is just a dream. The memories too!" the man said as he spoke with himself. "If this is a dream then the Sharingan won't appear when I channel chakra to my eyes."
The man did so and looked back at his reflection. Instead of the onyx irides, there were now two crimson orbs looking back at him. A small opaque dot was there absolutely black in color, as three tomoe surrounded it. He channeled some more chakra as they changed their shape as it shifted into three open tomoe with thick lines extending from the outer walls to the limits of his irides. (Madara's EMS.)
What made it even more surprising is that he had done it unconsciously as if it was second nature. He knew exactly how to do it. He channeled even more chakra as he felt a different sort of chakra flood his system, it wasn't his own but it felt like it was his. He looked back at the reflection, as he expected his eyes to change once more. Instead of the crimson orbs, they were light purple in color. Concentric rings formed around inside in a ripple formation. At least that is what he expected. But it didn't happen.
"So... it seems I can't access the Rinnegan yet, but I can feel the Yin Chakra and the Yang Chakra. Maybe it will take some time to awaken once more." the man said out loud to no one in particular. He then flicked his wrist and saw that an all too familiar Tri Pronged Kunai emerged in his hand. He then cut off his chakra to his eyes as they turned back to onyx orbs. He then held out his palm and ball of rotating violent chakra formed around in his palm. It kept making the swirling noise. The man then deactivated the jutsu and stood still. He had closed his eyes.
'Oi Fuzzball you there?!' he screamed inside his mind. No answer came. But chakra of former said tenant was there along with the chakra of his brothers and sisters. He then started to think about the situation. ' I travelled through a hole in Space and Time. According to the memories I have received, they are undoubtedly Madara's. Which means, his remaining body must've latched on to me as everything but his soul is with me. So I can use his abilities. My former abilities are there as well. And the Bijuu's chakra is there as well. But surprisingly I seem to have complete control over it….. Must be because of Madara. He did have perfect chakra control, nearly as good as Tsuna- I mean Baa-chan. Wait why did I understand all this better? Why the heck am I so calm? Is it because I absorbed some of Madara's nature as well? That does explain why I'm not freaking the fuck out yet. *sighs* Oh well better get out of here before something big happens.'
This man who resembled Madara Uchiha and himself was none other than Naruto. The jutsu which he thought was his death turned out to be a surprise as he felt his strength and powers increased threefold.
'I don't completely feel like myself though. I feel a bit colder. Probably because of that undead bastard's remains attaching on to me. Someone's nearby.' Naruto thought as he saw a rather old man come up with some wood.
"Oh.. you're up already young man." The man said with a kind smile. "You're healed as well. With that wound in your chest I thought you would've died."
"It's alright I heal fast. Thank you for helping me." Naruto replied. "Where is this place?"
"Oh this is Ta no Kuni. By the way how did you fall out of the sky young man?" the old man asked.
"I was testing out a jutsu. It went wrong." Naruto replied immediately his face completely devoid of emotion which for the lack of words clearly stated 'None of your business and don't ask further questions.' The old man seemed to have gotten the subtle message and simply smiled at Naruto who at the moment was processing the words the old man said.
'Ta no Kuni? Land of Rice. Jiraiya had told me that Oto no Kuni used to be called Ta no Kuni before that foul snake took over the land. If this is the same place then… that means…..that means…' as Naruto was pondering a destiny altering fact, he had failed to notice that instead of calling the Toad Sage by his usual name of 'Ero Sennin' he had referred to him by his actual name.
"Old man," Naruto spoke up as the person in question looked at him "for how many days was I unconscious?"
"Around two days. There were several other wounds on you as well, but the one on your chest was the largest, though surprisingly your clothes and your armor were completely fine." The old man replied.
"I see how many days has it been since the Fourth Great Ninja War ended?" Naruto asked and the old man had a confused expression on his face.
"Fourth Great War? You must be still reeling from your wounds young one. "The Second War ended a few years ago. Maybe you ought to rest a bit more."
'Just as I thought.' Naruto inwardly was angry. 'If what I learned is correct, then I'm back in time and in a different dimension too. This is going to be a hassle.' Naruto then looked at the old man and spoke, "Thank you for helping me when I was injured here." Naruto said as he put his hands on the large array of tattoos on his left, well shaped bicep. A poof noise came and a scroll came out. He unsealed it more and out came 50000 ryo. He handed the money to the old man. "A token of my gesture."
"Wait! I can't accept this! It's too much." The old man said. He wanted to say more but Naruto would have none of it.
"I insist." Naruto replied leaving no space for argument. "Now where are the rest of my clothes and gear?" Then a large grumbling noise came from Naruto's mouth who embarrassingly scratched the back of his head.
"Are you hungry young man?" the old man asked. He had a kind smile on his face.
"Sort of. Being unconscious for two days can do that. Oh right. Sorry about my earlier behavior. My name is Naruto." Naruto said as he bowed his head a bit. 'Be respectful Naruto! He'll give you food!'
"It's okay young man. From the looks of it you are a shinobi so I understand it. My son is a shinobi too. He lives in a place callled... what was it called again? Bakagakure?" the old man scratched his grey hair which still had shades of green in it.
"Takigakure I think." Naruto said.
"Yes that's the one." The old man said. "Oh right. Hope you like rice young man. We have plenty of that. I made a joke. Did you get the reference?" The man said while he laughed a bit. Naruto for his part laughed along awkwardly as he was mentally sweat dropping at the Land of Rice joke he made.
'Man talk about a lame joke.' Naruto thought while he clutched his stomach while laughing maniacally and stomping the floor with his foot too. 'Just laugh along. He has foooood.'
Hours Later, near the Northern Borders of the Ta no Kuni and Taki no Kuni, Kenso no Kuni.
Naruto walked slowly. Right now he was angry. Not just because of the fact that he had been sent to a dimension that too in the past whereas he had planned to end his life and finally get some peace. No Kami decided to fuck with him a little bit more and decided that not only would he live but he would have the body of none other than Madara Uchiha. His skills, his looks (which weren't so bad), his knowledge and his memories.
While Naruto did pity the man for going through the losses he had to endure, that didn't change the fact that Madara had developed quite the God Complex and was willing to let the world burn just so he could create his ideal version of the world. Right now, Naruto's wrath had turned up three fold. He sensed a chakra signature that was too recognizable. He stood still for a moment and was absorbing nature energy.
Naruto realized that he could still use the famed Mokuton that the Shodaime Hokage Hashirama Senju had created and Madara re-created through the First's cells. Naruto was glad he didn't have Hashirama's face sticking out of his chest, that was just weird how did Madara even sleep with the face of the man he hated most carved to the muscles that housed his heart. Naruto knew just how much Madara hated the Senju, particularly Tobirama Senju and even Naruto had to admit the Second Hokage was kind of an ass.
Just like Madara's brother who was also an ass.
Just like Danzo Shimura, the eye stealing, conflict feeding son of a bitch that he was... and an asshole.
Naruto took out a kunai and saw his reflection. It was the same Sage markings he had before only this time, the orange tints of color that wrapped around his eyes were red and a red circle appeared on his forehead which had another red circular dot in the center. His eyes no longer had the toad iris but the iris was still yellow and had orange surrounding the iris. Naruto threw his Tri Pronged Kunai in the backward direction and it struck a tree. A single figure came out of the tree.
It was a being made entirely of black. He had yellow eyes with no scelera or iris. Two empty orbs of desolate yellow. He also had a plant like shape and was surprised at the Kunai being flung at him which he managed to dodge. What made it stranger was the fact that the person before resembled a young Madara Uchiha a lot, though not completely as his face had subtle differences from the Ghost of the Uchiha. He was even wearing the same Warring States Armor as him too.
"I figured I'd see you around here Zetsu." Naruto said with a cold tone. "Before you answer that, let me tell you something. You are not bringing that Kaguya bitch here on this planet. You certainly aren't going to control Madara and lastly you are going to die." Naruto finished as he disappeared in a black flash. Zetsu for his part was surprised he had never seen this technique before and was surprised. So surprised that his mind couldn't process the swirling noise that was coming.
Naruto suddenly appeared behind him Rasengan in hand that had wind chakra laced on to it. It was a toned down version of his S Rank Jutsu.
"Fuuton: Furouindo Rasengan / Wind Style: Flowing Wind Spiraling Sphere!" Naruto yelled out as he slammed the Rasengan that was spinning with white ellipses of wind chakra into the black being.
Zetsu was reeling from the pain. He couldn't die here. He had to bring back his mother. He couldn't fail. Sadly that was not how things would play out.
"Goodbye Zetsu." Naruto said as appeared in front of Zetsu. His eyes took the shape of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
"Amaterasu / Heavenly Illumination!" Naruto said as black unforgiving flames covered the entirety of Zetsu's body.
Naruto didn't want to take any chance and unsealed some of the chakra rods that Pain had used against him, since he was in Sage Mode he had no problem touching it. All the knowledge that he had unwillingly gotten from Madara would come in handy when he would awaken the Rinnegan and make his own Black rods / blades, Naruto thought this while he was instinctively making short work of the being who potentially could've been responsible for a greater calamity. Naruto's Chakra Disruption Rods stabbed Zetsu in various places, firmly planting him in the ground. He then started exhaling breath with Fuuton chakra to burn away every fiber of Zetsu so he could not escape. Soon enough, nothing was left. Zetsu had been killed.
"Now to take care of the other problem, but first I want to test something out." Naruto grinned devilishly as he disappeared in a smokeless shunshin as he felt another source of chakra nearby. He had killed this particular being in spades during the war.
Mountains Graveyard, Northern Borders on the outskirts of Land of Rice and Land of Waterfalls.
Madara Uchiha was silently sitting in his lonesome throne. His original set of eyes which had transformed into the Rinnegan were with someone else now. An Uzumaki orphan by the name of Nagato. That was an insurance plan. The bonding of Hashirama's cell had been completed but in his old age, he is not what he used to be. He only had one spare eye left, that which was in his left socket. His body had withered out and he had to take in chakra from the Gedo Mezo behind him to stay alive.
His old trusty Gunbai was there at the corner of the room while he used his once murderous kusa as a crutch now. This world was hell in his opinion. He needed to change it. The Infinite Tsukuyomi was the only option left. He looked up at the ceiling and wondered how long it had been since he had seen the sunlight. But another troubling question came to mind. He had sent out his artificial being White Zetsu to scout out anything useful. It had been hours and he should've returned by now.
Then the unthinkable happened the ceiling of his hideout for more than fifty years had come crashing down, more specifically there was a perfect circular hole had formed and that part had fell as gravity did its work. All the rubble fell before his eyes and then he saw something even more. White Zetsu was there. His body torn to shreds. His limbs haphazardly lying around as the original had died.
This White Zetsu was supposed to be the prototype before he created more variants of it, including one where he could attach his will to. Then he saw the person responsible for it. The man was wearing the Uchiha Combat Robes that was reminiscent of the Warring States Period and he had long spiky black hair that came to his back. He was standing high atop the crater. His face couldn't be seen as he was wearing a mask. A white mask that looked like a skull and had red tribal markings on one side of its face. (Ichigo's first Visored Mask).
The man jumped down and he was emanating the very sense of death that made even Madara feel the intensity of it. The Killing Intent was something akin to his own. Too similar to his own. Even the chakra signature from this person felt too familiar.
"Uchiha Madara." The man said with a tone that resembled a bit of his own when he was younger. "The time has come. You've cheated death once. You will not do so twice."
"Who are you?" Madara replied. He may have been old but his voice still bore his pride.
"I am all that's left…. Or maybe I'm all that there ever was." The man said. Then Madara saw it. His own Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan blazing in eye holes of the mask.
"Those eyes… they're like mine. Who are you?" Madara asked once more.
"As I said. I am all that's left. Everything you could've become had you not let your hatred consume you. If only you said the truth… that you were gay for Hashirama." The man said and the grin was well hidden beneath his mask.
"..."
Some snickers came from the man who had his face hidden beneath the mask but even Madara could tell the stranger was smirking at him and this did not sit well with the Ghost of the Uchiha was visibly reacting in anger upon his forgotten throne.
"WHAT?!" Madara yelled out in anger. "How dare you even suggest something like that?!"
"Coming from the man who is a ninety year old virgin?" the man replied. "Of all people."
"Urusai! Who are you?!" Madara said as he still sat down. The man chuckled before he took off his mask. Madara saw a younger version of himself but there were small differences between their faces, very small features but they were there.
"I told you. I am all you could've become. It's a shame Madara. Tsuki no Me ends today." The man threw a tri pronged Kunai which Madara managed to catch despite his old age.
"You need to work on your aim." Madara said. The man in returned grinned.
"Who said I was aiming to kill?" the man before him disappeared in a black flash and reappeared in from with a katana that was pure silver with a light blue edge as it hummed with Fuuton chakra.
Madara Uchiha felt his chest being stabbed. He needed to use Izanagi. Then he lost his vision as his lone left eye was torn out. Madara Uchiha, the first man in any given history to achieve the eternal light that the Uchiha dream of was finally blind. He could not see. His final strand of pride had been taken from him. Naruto then left Madara to writhe in pain while a murder of raven feathers formed around his hand as a crow stood there with one eye. The single eye had a Sharingan in it.
After Itachi had been brought back as an Edo Tensei, Naruto had encountered him and used the Keiyaku Fuin / Contract Seal to break Kabuto's control over the reanimated Uchiha prodigy. Sadly he couldn't do the same to Nagato who had to be sealed by Itachi's Susano'o. Later Itachi told him that he had given Naruto one of Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan which had the rare ability known as Kotoamatsukami / Distinguished Heavenly Gods, a Mangekyou ability which gives complete control over a person and the victim would never realize it. Naruto had then learned from Itachi in moments how to summon his own unique crow and now he placed Madara's last eye into the other socket. This was nothing more than an insurance. He was broken out of his thoughts as a dying Madara groaned in pain. Naruto's eye flicked off to him once more and he slowly walked the old Uchiha.
"W-W-Who are you?!" Madara wheezed out in pain. "W-Why do you have *COUGH* m-my chakra and my powers?"
"Like I said. I am all that you could've ever become. Minus the gay part with Hashirama... That's just weird and nasty. Honestly, why couldn't you just like a girl and then you know 'Kunai and chill'?" Naruto said shruggingly. He was doing this to mess with Madara specifically.
From what he learned from the man's memories, Madara and Hashirama were in ways similar to Sasuke and Naruto when they were younger. Many people had pissed him off by saying that Naruto and Sasuke were made for each other and what not. That pissed him off. He was sure that an accusation like this would piss off Madara as well. It did as Madara had a hateful expression on his face despite the fact that he was dying and was blinded. Naruto decided that it was enough and he needed to end this.
"Uchiha Madara." Naruto said as he took the katana in his hand once more and this time it hummed with wind chakra once more. "Your time had come a long time ago. Don't fear the reaper, since we all have to go someday though in your case I would guess he is pretty pissed. Good riddance you old goat and may the Shinigami give you a proper prostrate exam when he sees you." With Naruto made a horizontal slash at Madara's neck. For a moment, everything stood still and then the old Uchiha's head came off and fell on to his own lap. Naruto still had his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan activated as he looked at the remains of the Uchiha and muttered one word.
"Amaterasu."
Black flames engulfed the dead body of the Uchiha. Naruto had specifically taken out his lone Sharingan first because he knew that the sly bastard would've transcripted Izanagi into the eye. Naruto knew this because he had Madara's body, memories and thought patterns. He finally knew how the crafty old Uchiha's mind worked. Though it did fucking piss him that it was useless now.
He deactivated his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and stared at Madara's rotting corpse with onyx eyes that showed satisfaction over finally being able to kill the mad man who was responsible for the entire predicament. He could've ended the existence of the flames but there was no need to, he would let it burn for the whole seven days. The last thing he wanted was for someone to get his remains and bring him back as an Edo Tensei. No way was he letting that happen again. Naruto walked over to the throne and looked at the Gedo Statue.
"You fucking statue." Naruto said as he kicked the statue and then grabbed his foot as he comically yelped in pain. "Tch. Even as just a statue you're a pain in my ass. Alright, if Madara's memories are correct the stupid old goat must've at least a hundred scrolls lying around here just on ninjutsu and genjutsu. Can't let that go to shame. Especially this kusa and that Gunbai." Naruto said as he picked up the old Kusa. Honestly speaking Naruto was heavily impressed when Madara had used the Gunbai against him.
It seemed that fusing with Madara did have some perks. Now he just wanted to train a bit before heading back out into the world again. Naruto was a bit sad that he couldn't go back to his own time, mostly because he didn't know if he could go back to his own time. He would probably end up somewhere else, and he did not want to go to the world where everybody just stands around with wooden sticks as flashy specks of light emerge while they yell nonsense.
For now Uchiha Naruto would train. Train himself to master nearly all of Madara's abilities. So that he can go about his own ways, and prevent any large bad events from recurring in this timeline. Food wouldn't be an issue, Jiraiya had long taught him how to hunt.
Timeskip: One Year Later.
Borderlands Forest, Hi no Kuni, Kenso no Kuni.
It was nighttime now. There was a cool comforting breeze in the area. The sweet smell of the trees had been coating the air with a natural smell that reeked of peace, even in a conflicted world like this. One single man was walking alone at night. He had long, spiky raven hair that was smooth at some points that came down all the way to his back. Usually one of his eyes would be covered by one of the bangs, but he adjusted his hair in such a way that both his eyes could be seen clearly, as his hair split down on the bridge of his nose.
He had lightly tanned skin that gave his pale expression a handsome complexion. He had onyx iride eyes, they seemed both lifeless and at times kind as well. He had a bored expression on his angular, chiseled face and at the moment he was mumbling something as his well toned body built for quick, precise and death dealing combat was strolling through the forest.
He was wearing the Uchiha Combat Robes that clansmen used to wear during the Warring States. His robes were dark blue in color along with even darker blue pants that came down to his heels, and he had a black obi tied around it that had various pouches surrounding and black tapes covering his heels. To finish it off, he also had a Gunbai on his back which covered the Uchiha Fan stitched onto his clothes and was wearing toeless black shinobi sandals.
"Stupid time travel rules. I could've just flashed to the Hokage Monument. But no you have to be in the same Space Time Continuum to let the Sealing Matrix apply. Goddamn rules and regulations." Naruto Uchiha grumbled as he now had a childish expression on his face. He had been training for the last whole year in gruelling fashion. He had decided not to go back to his time because he had done his duty as the Child of Prophecy. He was sure that peace was brought to his time.
Now that he was in the past, he had done his job again. He had brought down the entire Mountain Graveyard and put up some highly dangerous seals that would decimate anyone except him who would try to enter and even look for the Gedo Mezo. On top of that Madara's knowledge and skills were such that he even erected a wall of fire inside the inner sanctum of the Mountain Graveyard that would dance forever as it was made of the unholy flames of Amaterasu / Heavenly Illumination.
Good luck getting Madara Uchiha's blood to enter that place. He had decided to go back to Konoha and live out his life as a shinobi peacefully. By peacefully, he meant fighting and killing. You know, the usual drive for a shinobi. Naruto after thoroughly abusing the Shadow Clone Jutsu once more, had finally awakened the Rinnegan. It was natural, and Naruto was sure that with Madara's memories he was more than enough to take on anyone. Maybe, just maybe this time around Naruto could prevent a lot of things from happening.
His former parents death, since he was no longer himself as he had already made up a back story of being Madara's grandson. The old man was bound to take him, but he'd have to take care of Danzo Shimura, that was something he definitely needed to do. He could also prevent Yahiko from dying so Nagato is on the right paths with Konan. He could also prevent Obito from turning into a madman and stop the Uchiha Massacre. Yes, a lot of things could be fixed. And then Naruto sighed.
"Fuck my life." Naruto said as he kept walking. "Why couldn't I get to Konoha without any major incident? Kami why must you do this?" Naruto said as he stopped.
He then stood completely still as he felt the chakra signatures get closer. There were five of them in total. Four of them were jounin level and one of them was quite large as well, but he felt that the source of chakra was strange. Strange is in it felt like it was struggling and felt a bit familiar too. Naruto waited and soon enough they appeared. Naruto had to be impressed with Madara's skill in suppressing his chakra signature, even the best of sensors couldn't feel Madara around their area unless he wanted them too. Naruto was about to say something but he didn't get the chance.
"Stop right there!" the Kumo jounin shouted at Naruto who was looking at him with a bored expression and yawned. It was a genuine yawn. He had been walking for some time so it was quite understandable. "Who are you?!"
"Just a simple guy." Naruto said as he eyed all of them. They weren't the ones with a large chakra, but he was looking for a source. The five jounin were apparently surrounding someone. Maybe Naruto could get lucky and just get past them without-
"Hey! He looks like an Uchiha!" one of them shouted.
'Fuck!' Naruto inwardly cursed. Honestly why did Uchiha look so one directional in their genetic looks? 'Stupid genes of the Sage's older son.' Naruto grumble in his mind.
"Let's grab him as well. Raikage-sama would be really pleased." Another one said.
'Blind fucking loyalists! Do they not see how much I resemble Madara? I have a fucking Gunbai on my back as well!' Naruto thought without losing his poker face. He sighed as two of them came forward and he activated his Shaingan. Upon eye contact, both of them froze in mid air when they made the jump. Naruto unsealed two regular kunai and lodged them against their throats. Then Naruto disappeared in front of their eyes and then appeared in front of one and hit him with the Rasengan right on his face with full power. They didn't let him explain his situation so they would die. They were going to use him as a sperm provider they would die. If only he could've taken the Fourth Raikage Ai down a few pegs before he left, oh wait Madara did and Naruto giggled as he remembered the memories of his symbiotic other.
Naruto looked at the last Kumo jounin and saw that he was holding a girl of no more than sixteen as a hostage. She had long flowing red hair that came down to her back, had violet eyes and creamy skin along with a beautiful face. Her eyes were red and puffy right now. She seemed so lost, but she looked at him for a bit of help now. Naruto sighed inwardly, how could he not help someone especially a beautiful girl like that was looking at him like that.
"S-Stay back Uchiha!" the man growled as he held a kunai at her throat. "Or else the bitch gets it."
"Amateur." Naruto said as he pointed his finger at the man and muttered "Iatsu: Sharingan / Coercion: Sharingan" and the man froze in place, and then he slowly fell backwards but Naruto got there and stabbed him with his own kunai. Naruto deactivated his Sharingan and then looked at the girl who was sitting on her knees.
He took a real good look at her. Her heart shaped face had the Konoha hitai-ate on her forehead as her royal crimson locks of hair framed her face with bangs. She was wearing a dark purple short sleeved battle kimono that had eddy like designs of dark red at the bottom and the Uzumaki swirl on her back, and black pants that came down to a level a bit above her heels giving a preview of the creamy and toned legs she had. Her developing body hugged the clothes as Naruto smiled a bit out of both saving her and some sheer perverseness.
'She's gotta be around sixteen or seventeen I guess. But look at her… I mean the girls back in my time didn't have curves like this. Oh well. Thoughts for later.' Naruto thought as he cut her bindings and saw that the ropes themselves had seals on them to suppress her chakra. He gently got down on one knee and put his hand on her chin raising her face to look at his.
"You alright Benihime?" Naruto asked with a kind smile. As if on cue the girl blushed up as she took a good look at her savior's handsome features. He was strong too, and an Uchiha. She nodded weakly.
"H-Hai" She squeaked out.
"Where did they take you from?" Naruto asked.
"From outside Konoha. I was a bit angry and rushed out of the village to blow off some steam." The red head girl said, more like mumbled but Naruto was chuckling at her words which she found surprising. Uchiha did not generally chuckle, smile or laugh save a select few.
"Quite the temper you have." Naruto said after stopping his chuckles. He looked at the girl who was cutely pouting. "Let's get you back there then Benihime-chan. I have to go to Konoha as well."
"Yes." The girl replied as she got up but lost a bit of balance and nearly fell over but a hand snaked itself around her belly and held her in place. She looked up to see that it was the same Uchiha who saved her and upon the close contact with him once more she blushed an atomic explosion. "W-What are you doing?"
"Yare Yare Daze." Naruto said as he scooped her up in a bridal style only amplifying the blush on her face. "Its clear that those Kumo bastards dragged you on like that. Sit back and enjoy the ride Benihime-chan. We'll be near Konoha soon." Naruto said as he jumped from tree branch to tree branch while the moon shined down on both of them. The girl for her part kept stealing glances at him every now and then, and Naruto did not want to miss out on a chance like this.
"See something you like Benihime-chan?" Naruto asked. Sticking with Jiraiya for so long did make him have a healthy interest in girls, but just like his Toad Sage master he too only appreciated the best of the best. No half assed, lacking girls for him no sir. Was he a pervert if he wanted a beautiful woman in his arms? Then every man in the world was a pervert.
"N-nothing." She squeaked out and in embarrassment dug into his chest to hide her blush.
"It's alright Benihime-chan. I was just teasing. I don't want to you to get angry… again like you did earlier in the day." Naruto said. He then looked at her and he tilted his head making the girl resist the urge to glomp him. "Why did you get angry Benihime-chan?"
"Mou." She said as she had a sheepish expression on her. "I got angry because some boys were making fun about my hair. They said I look like a tomato. They're right. Even I don't like my hair that much." Kushina said and then she realized that they had stopped. Naruto sighed and took some of her deep flowing tresses of her hair in his hand as she observed him.
"Hn. They're idiots Benihime-chan." Naruto said. "They don't know any better about anything. Besides, if you ask me….. you have beautiful crimson hair. You should always let it flow like this." The girls blushed the most at his words and both were moving along soon enough as Naruto kept going forward while a chain of thoughts began to form. When Naruto had heard the story from his mother he thought she was exaggerating about this, or that his father had a fetish for red hair. True he too like his mother's crimson tresses but seeing some beautiful locks of scarlet hair like this truly made him realize why his once genetic father had said this to his once genetic mother. Considering he was in Madara's body his entire DNA structure had changed.
Then it clicked.
'No….'
He had saved a red headed girl from the Kumo jounin.
'No no no no…..'
He had complimented her luscious red hair and she was comfortably snugging into his chest.
'Please be someone else. Please be someone else. Please be someone else.'
"Say Benihime-chan," Naruto said a bit nervously "we never introduced ourselves. My name is Uchiha Naruto. What's yours?"
"Right I forgot." She said as she pulled her face out of his chest. "My name is Uzumaki Kushina. Nice to meet you dattebane." She said a bit excitedly and once more hid her face for delivering her verbal tic.
'No…..
I stopped Minato from saving Kushina….
I saved her…
I complimented her red hair…
This was the moment they shared and had connected...
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!'
If it wasn't for the fact that he was in Madara's body and the high level of emotional control that the old Ghost had, Naruto would've been tripping balls in front of his once genetically mother right now. He did however shake a bit and she looked at him with the most damned cutest expression he had ever seen.
"Is something wrong Naruto-kun?" Kushina said and lightly gasped at calling him with the suffix of 'kun'.
'You know what… I'm not her son anymore. So the fact that they won't end up together shouldn't affect my existence. Since Madara died and this is his body that means I too should've disappeared. Then that means I'm in a different dimension considering all those other versions I saw of myself.…. You know what fuck it! I don't care what happens anymore.' Naruto finished his thoughts.
"Nothing Benihime-chan." Naruto said with a smile. He'd be living his own life now. He was a different person so he wouldn't be erased from existence even if his parents didn't end up together.
"Why do you keep calling me that? My name is Kushina dattebane" she whined out a bit.
"Well. It's because you are one. In my eye at least you are... my Crimson Princess." Naruto said and she really wasn't going to bring her face out of his chest anymore. Then Naruto stopped as another person appeared in front of them. He had felt his chakra signature some time ago.
'Blonde hair, check. Blue eyes, check. Konoha headband, check. Age around sixteen, check. Jealous and a bit of a lost look on his face because I am holding his possible future wife in my arms, after saving her and ruining nearly any and every chance he had of ending up with her... check.' Naruto thought. 'On a side note he did look flaky. Looks like he was one of those pretty boys at the Academy. But he was strong for his age no doubt about that... But he still looks a bit flaky.'
"Who are you? Why do you have Kushina like that?" the boy asked.
"Minato!" Kushina said a bit angrily mind you. "He saved me and brought me here. This is Uchiha Naruto."
"Hn." Naruto grunted trying to assert the fact that he is a true Uchiha. In accordance to the mindset of Madara, one is not a true Uchiha if he doesn't have a Katon / Fire Release chakra nature, doesn't awaken the Sharingan and most importantly doesn't fluently speak the language of 'Hn.' But Naruto decided to keep the image of a different Uchiha. However Minato wasn't greeting him.
How dare Minato not greet the mighty Uchiha Naruto? I mean, sure he's holding Kushina in his arms but still at least have some courtesy to someone who saved someone from your village.
'Jealous little bitch. You know what?' Naruto screamed in his mind. 'I am going to be the bigger man here. Muhahahahaha!'
"Nice to meet you as well Minato." Naruto said and he still didn't get a response. Minato looked like somone had kicked his puppy and kept looking at how Kushina was tightly gripping Naruto as her arms were beginning to weigh down on his neck.
Naruto sweat dropped at the situation he was in.
'This is going to be really awkward from now on. Well at least I won't be bored. I wonder if Ichiraku's is around?'
There done with the first chapter.
