Chereads / NARUTO : TWIN DEVILS / Chapter 3 - WHAT CAN I DO?

Chapter 3 - WHAT CAN I DO?

"This happened twelve years ago, on the day you both were born, nine tails attacked. Some were saving civilians and some were fighting that beast to constrain it and your father is one of them. After subduing that beast, your father decided to seal that beast into one of you. Naruto born with weak body and the possibility of handling the burden of seal of nine tails is nearly impossible. So, we choose Nurumi to be container, since she has Uzumaki bloodline powers. Knowing this fact nine tails tried to kill you. so, in order to save you, we decided to sacrifice our lives to stop the attack. Your father died immediately and just before my death my uncle, great grandmaster of fuinjutsu saved me."

As my mother telling me the past and our birth, Nurumi listening with stars glittering in her eyes. I looked at man who is sitting next to us, our granduncle, Kenji Uzumaki, the only great grandmaster of fuinjutsu.

It's been two days since my mother woke up from deep slumber. Today, after my granduncle woke up, my mother is telling us past about our birth. Even though it's sad to lose father, but it is great to listen my father heroic story from my mother.

I am Uzumaki, that means my true name is Naruto Uzumaki, a twin brother of Nurumi Uzumaki. Now I understand why I feel closer to Nurumi, because she is my twin sister, who shared everything with me.

The entire happy moment is ruined by my granduncle, Kenji Uzumaki.

"Naruto come here."

I went to him; he took my hand and checked the pulse. After a minute, he let go my wrist,

"do you want to become shinobi?"

I am surprised, 'yes I do want to become shinobi from the beginning'. Just I am going to say yes, my mother interrupted me.

"do you think so, uncle?"

Granduncle looks at mother, "if it is before, I wouldn't consider this option. But now Naruto awakened his bloodline powers, then that's different scenario. If I have to say, its miracle. The foreign chakra body is the reason for his weak body. Now, he not only has bloodline powers and also his chakra is so enormous. I should say, this is like blessing in disguise."

I am amazed and stood there like rock, Nurumi hugged me, "yahoo…! Brother. You can also become awesome shinobi."

I am happy that someday I can become shinobi, but next words from granduncle shocked me.

"if you want you can become great fuinjutsu mater. You have best aptitude for fuinjutsu. Do you want to try?"

Even though it is amusing, but I want become best ninjutsu master, not fuinjutsu.

Seeing my hesitation, my granduncle laughed, "don't look down on fuinjutsu just because I don't any offensive usages. Remember what am I about to tell you as your first lesson, "the usage of art is what decides the application of art. I will give you an example, your father, use a plain unrefined fuinjutsu into a deadly offensive technique which is also used as defensive technique. So, don't limit your thoughts like frag in well or fish in small pond."

I am surprised for my fathers' achievement, same with Nurumi. Even though we want to listen more about our father, but for some reason mother and granduncle is not willing to tell us.

I decided to follow my granduncle, "thankyou granduncle, I will not disappoint you at all."

"I know you will. I will tell you another story, which is related to you. A story from distant forgotten past, the origin of Uzumaki clan, the first clan leader of Uzumaki clan. This is secret among clan leaders or clan protectors, so listen and etch it into your soul.

The Uzumaki clan and Senju clan have same ancestor, that's why when Senju clan built a village, the first one to form alliance is our Uzumaki. The first clan leader born with immense amount of life force, faster healing powers and a special sealing jutsu. You can say that he is natural born with sealing technique. Every pure blood Uzumaki inherited these features through their bloodline. As for children born like yourself, mostly inherited longer lifespan or healing powers and greater chakra resources compared to others. This includes Nurumi herself, she is born with immense chakra levels and enhanced healing ability.

But you, Naruto is special case. When you are born, foreign chakra, the nine tails chakra invaded your body, which make you venerable to usage of chakra. Your bloodline sealed the nine tails chakra from invading your body. But now, your bloodline is similar to pure blood children. Its even far superior to people of my generation. I conclude, you awakened the Uzumaki bloodline powers which is similar to ancestor of Uzumaki clan as per the clan records perceived."

After listening granduncle's explanation about blood line, I am awed by my own bloodline. But what is most interesting since I have great abilities, now I can do greater things.

When I am happy and thinking what to do, my uncle is continued.

"I have decided to take you away from this village. So, get ready before anyone will know about this"

I am shocked at his statement.

"but uncle you know they won't allow Nurumi to leave village due to her status right?"

"but after seeing us and Naruto's abilities, they become like hungry wolfs that want to snatch preys."

"are you telling me to leave Nurumi and leave the village"

When I heard the last statement, I looked at Nurumi who is with us. She is crying silently, when she heard we will leave her. since, we can't take her with us"

I no longer able to hold my feelings, "I won't leave Nurumi at any cost, not even on my death"

I declared loudly and staring at my granduncle eyes.

He is looking to my eyes for a minute and then asked me sternly, "what do you think you have right to interrupt when elder's discussion. Do you even know what's going to happen if people know that we are alive? These are selfish who are not even willing to help when our village is in brink of destruction. Do you think you can stand against these old fogies who has powers to rule over you?"

After listening to granduncle's questioning, I felt I don't know anything about dark side of this village. But now only many questions what are hidden in dark were surfaced and I am able to get clear picture and answers. While I am thinking, a silent conversation is going between my granduncle and my mother who is holding crying Nurumi.

I really don't know what to do? But after looking at Nurumi, I can confirm one thing. Until two days back, she is the one whom I have to protect in my life. She is not only my responsibility, my light to live, to move forward. I don't have power to protect her, so I decided to support her from behind. But now I have power to protect her and now I have mother and granduncle. Can I protect them against people from shadows?

NO… I can't protect everyone every time. So, what can I do to protect them… think, Naruto think…? I have to find a solution.

KENJI UZUMAKI POV

Hi, I Kenji Uzumaki one of the survivors of Uzumaki clan, hidden from this word for eleven years to save my niece life. In fact, it should have taken few years to save Kushina's life. But, unknown to me, the life seal is broken. This is done by a twelve-year-old child who awakened his bloodline.

When he is born, nine tails chakra is invaded his chakra network, which makes him week and unable to use chakra. But after bloodline awakening, his bloodline is some what special and is like what described in ancient scriptures of Uzumaki bloodline.

That means he is natural born fuinjutsu master, he can reach heights no one can ever imagine. That's why I don't want him to restricted to this village. Of course, this is also a test to test him. I want to see what decision he will make.

After looking at Nurumi for a minute, Naruto closed his eyes. Time is passes, one minute, two minutes, five minutes, and nearly half an hour is passed. He still not opened his eyes. We are losing our patience, I decided to wake him up from his sleep.

Just when I am going to touch, Naruto opened his eyes. compared to before his aura changed, now is more matured.

POV END

After thinking a lot, since leaving this village without Nurumi is out of option, I decided to find a way to live on this village. Yes, I decided to live in this village, Konohagakura, for my father, who sacrificed his life.

I looked at my granduncle, who is looking at me, "I am sorry granduncle, I decided to stay here for my father and for Nurumi sake. I know you meant well for me, but I hope you listen my reasons for me to stay."

Granduncle looked surprised, "talk"

I am relieved, "first my father sacrificed his life for this village. So, I don't want to leave. As for second, even if we leave, other villages won't allow us to live freely or to rebuild or village. Konoha is strongest among all hidden villages. So, Konoha is best option.

Since we were child we faced discrimination, especially Nurumi. I don't want Nurumi to bear that burden alone. This is the promise I made to Nurumi when we were child, that to when we are nobody to each other. Do you think I will able leave in peace after know she is my twin sister, granduncle?

I can guess that some one is spreading rumors about Nurumi. Still do you want to leave Nurumi and mother in danger and do you think if a word about you and mother spread, will they accept you who are already dead.

So, after thinking a lot I decided to live here, that includes you also granduncle. Now I have a nice proposal, are you willing to listen granduncle?"

By the time I completed, granduncle and mother were shocked to core, their eyes are widened, their bodies are stiffened. As for Nurumi, she is completely different, her eyes are beaming with glitters. I know why she is like that, because I declared that I will live with hear no matter what.

Contrary to my expectation, granduncle and mother are laughing. I am confused, why they were laughing. Did I say anything wrong?

After laughing for some time, they calm down. Now I am confused, but my mother told me, "Naruto my son, sorry, uncle wants to test you, but you are surprised us. You are more matured than your age. I am so proud of you"

Them granduncle continued, "we were already dead in others eyes. so, we don't want to live here. But you are more precious than us. So, I decided to give you options, but you exceeded by making your own decision, which is far better than others. You are more suitable to be clan leader. So, remember from now on you are clan leader of Uzumaki. Make decisions according to that, ok?"

So, this is test, but this going to be best part of my life.

I finally realized how foolish I am. I believed what they said without thinking. This is a lesson for me, I must and should remember never probed by others words.

So, I decided to proceeding to next planning, "so, granduncle what do you think we should do?"

My grand uncle laughed loudly, "we will proceed through a plan. We will change our appearances and identities as Uzumaki members searching for survivors, heard a Uzumaki is present in Konoha and come to this village. After meeting you we found you both are Uzumaki members and decided to take guardianship for both of you. later we will train you both in Uzumaki clan jutsu. But you have to remember, passing of clan techniques to others is not only crime, but also bring destruction to clan."

After that my granduncle and mother left us saying meet us soon.
