Title: Timeskip 2
...
Hyperacusis... A disorder of the ear... Or so it would seem to people with limited knowledge. This is similar to that Kurama Clan kid who could bring her drawings to Reality.
Kimizu just had a Kekkai Genkai particularly attuned to sound... Unfortunately, it manifested in this form.
This was both a privilege and a curse so to say... As a God and also someone who has studied the human body to its absolute limit... At least on this planet's humans, I know that every human is born unique.
Some more so than others... But those gifts bring with them both good and bad... Welcome and unwelcome traits.
However, no ailments on this planet come as just an ailment.
This was what piqued my interest in the girl... After that short introduction, we quickly became friends and talked in a hushed tone.
There was a lot I could teach her, and the more I taught her, the more we became closer...in less than a year, we were already as close as I was with Hana.
Weird. Am I beginning to have my own fan base of girls? It's not an unwelcome thought though.
Other than that, I spent a decent amount of time daily with father sparing. He insisted he taught me everything he knew about Kenjutsu.
And as the genius I am, I absorbed everything he taught me. Now, with just pure Kenjutsu, I could go toe to toe with him. When physical strength is mixed, I definitely didn't have a fighting chance.
Another friend? I made was a Chinoike clan brat. News of me being a genius was widespread in the academy, and being one of the two Chinoike clan children in my class, she made it her duty to challenge me every time we had Taijutsu practice.
Of course I always won but that didn't dampen her spirit. This made me admire her. She wasn't the type to go in gun blazing. I could see her developing with every defeat she got.
These were the type of people that will make a difference in the future. People who remained obsessed.
Normally, obsession is a bad thing... However, that is only the case when it is directed at the wrong thing. Her kind of obsession was the one focused on winning.
She had the drive, and I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up surpassing every other person in our class unawares.
After all, a good rivalry always brings out the best in people.
Kitsumi was her name and she managed to make it into my good books. I sure do have hopes for her.
Kimizu on the other hand dreaded close contact battles not to mention Taijutsu. Apparently, as the ear maintains one's Body Balance, anything that would influence that is dangerous to the girl.
I mean, I spent an entire year excavating the girl's potential but fear has her tied down.
I won't be giving up on her though. She's merely a child of 7 years of age. Her not being afraid would be an anomaly.
Think of the things she could achieve. Ria alone could pulverize someone weaker with nothing but soundwaves... Pulverise as in atomic dismantling...but slowly.
Trust me. I've seen it. Not a pretty picture. Her ability to manipulate all Vectors was astonishingly frightening. I honestly wouldn't want to get on her bad side unless I had the intention to actually kill her... Which was impossible.
Nothing could ever make me kill my woman...
Thankfully, the academy here wasn't afraid of allowing children practice with their elements early in life.
Back in Konoha, the academy had this strict rule not to allow children to even fight with it... Idiots. If they don't learn all there is to learn now, how would they improvise when they grow older.
Kimizu was only wind attuned which didn't come as a surprise to me. Afterall, Sound was an extreme form of Wind manipulation. They were as a result of Vibrational frequencies which was simply when two particles in the air come in contact with each other.
The physics lesson apart. I was now able to focus mainly on my elements. Apparently this body of mine was attuned in Lightning and Earth.
Lightning was good but I never really fancied Earth. That didn't mean I didn't have ample ways of putting it to good use. But first... My very First Lightning Technique from back then... Lightning Armour.
I remember feeling like the flash back when I managed to achieve it. Being able to move as fast as Lightning without exerting much force on your body.
Just the feeling of electricity coursing through your veins, blood, muscles was enough. You'd be able to see the world In a whole different light.
It was exhilarating... And now that I'm a normal human again, there's nothing stopping me from recreating it... Afterall it did become redundant when I reached a certain level of power back then.
Not to mention the Lighting Domain. In it, I was basically Omnipresent. One had to know that Omnipresence is the pinnacle of Speed.
Being at multiple places at once. Can you imagine that? That was the possibility the Lightning Domain presented.
However, considering that I'm still a kid's body... I feel like Godspeed would be enough for now.
{A\N: Mind you that Godspeed is my own definition of what the Third and Fourth Raikage are using. My MC definition of Lightning Armour is similar to that of Luck in Black Clover... For those who may have forgotten.}
After all... A journey of a thousand miles begins with a step... Right?
As our first year ended, I demanded a month break to go back to Konoha for Naruto. I did make a promise after all and I wasn't prepared to break it, no matter what.
On reaching Konoha, I was 'warmly' received by Hiruzen and his fuck buddies in the Hokage's office... That was where I was made aware of the fact that Naruto had really been put in an orphanage.
Their excuse? "It would be suspicious if the Third's Clan suddenly adopts a blond haired kid shortly after the Fourth's Death."
Reasonable and Fair. Truly, but that doesn't mean I like it one bit. However I still let it go, afterall, there was no spread of any rumors yet.
"Oh... It would do the villagers good if they had no idea what's inside Naruto..." I left those words as I left the office for the orphanage he was at.
"Ohya? You're here to see the blond bundle of joy?" The matron of the Orphanage asked as I requested to see Naruto.
"Of course. Here, the Hokage's permit." I said and handed her a scroll. From all indications, she was not just an ordinary woman. She was a Shinobi. A seasoned one at that.
That made me remember that one matron Nono Yakushi... Bless her soul. She just had to be pulled into Danzo's schemes and machinations.
Unfortunately, I had no alterations with her, if not, I would've given her a better life. She really was a role model for nuns. Too bad she's been forgotten.
Kabuto's Nun mother who was brainwashed to forget Kabuto and later sent to assassinate him... However, after trying and failing to make her realize he was the real Kabuto, he killed her. That's what finally made him fall into the darkness this world had to suffer.
I feel pity for both of them... Truly, but... Sigh.
"Oh. You will find him at the playground with the other kids." She said with a smile and I nodded.
Meeting the grown up Naruto (1 year), I couldn't help but smile at that pure and untainted aura around him. It was so pure but marred with Kurama's darkness, yet retained its purity.
That's the child of prophecy for ya. And Danzo would think his little manipulation could darken what Kurama's chakra couldn't? Pathetic.
"Hey there Naruto." I called out to the little boy playing with some rubber Shruikens and Kunais.
He looked up at me in confusion which was understandable. Which baby would retain his memory of a baby while still a baby? None! That's who... Well, except if they were isekaid.
"Wanna play with big brother?" I asked but he remained seated so I sat down with him and began making things with the sands and sticks there.
In next to no time, he had warmed up to me and we were already covered in dirts.
This was my routine for an entire month until I came to tell him goodbye. He looked confused at the concept of goodbye and I knew it would probably not matter much to him as he's nothing but a child.
Still, I gave him a little figurine of the both of us, properly crafted by me so he won't forget me.
After giving it to him on my last day, I returned back to Hanagakure, but not before meeting with Mikoto and Sasuke too.
I had initially thought of bringing two of them, Naruto and Sasuke together, but maybe next year.
On other news, Itachi took my advice and didn't graduate after I left. He was initially meant to graduate at 6, but now, he's 7 and still in the academy.
He, Izumi and Hana were the star pupils being asked to graduate but they all refused.
I don't think it would last long though. I know for a fact that adults can be quite forceful when they want something so... I gave them this year.
By next year, they would all be Genins while I would still be in the academy... As a Bronze Ranked student.
...
In Hana, the new academic year began and as I expected of the academy I had created, the weak were pruned while the strong were promoted.
Kimizu, Kitsumi and I remained in class A along with a few while the rest went down to B, C and D.
The stronger one's from B, C and D came up as well, which brought along with it, a new wave of rivalry.
As the star student, I never went a day without a challenge by some stuck up idiot who wanted to prove something.
Honestly, it annoyed me a bit, but I enjoyed it when children came with a desire to actually challenge someone stronger than them
There were quite a few but with time, they dwindled. The ones who continued received my full attention while the ones that gave up were just that...
The thing with giving up was... There is a point in life where you have two options... You either keep going forward or you give up.
When you give up, you only have one thing that is guaranteed... It'll never happen. You'll never make it. You'll remain where you are, unawares of the things you've missed.
I'm not being narcissistic here but I dare say that everyone who's gone up against me consistently, never came back the same way they left.
That was the one thing I had pride in. I was not arrogant... Far from that. I appreciated talent. Drive. Motivation. Without those, you'll just remain among the 99% of the world's population.
It's those 1% who keep going that truly make the difference. That's what I've come to realize about life. A pity I didn't realize it in my last life. Haha.
This year, I made it a point of focus to make Kimizu freely use her Sound based Kekkei Genkai.
There was a lot she could do with it. Sound manipulation, sonic scream, ballistic scream, air wave generation and manipulation... Hell, even ambient energy absorption.
All forms of energy have a vibrational frequency, learning to harness this energy and absorb them could make her a living nuke... But that's for the future.
She could even learn thunder manipulation... Thunder is the sound of lightning, and we all know how loud that can be... Learning to manipulate it in conjunction with my Godspeed could make us invincible.
After all, no one could possibly stop the sound of Thunder. Damn! This girl is filled with potential... She only has herself holding her back, but I'll work on that... I'll make sure of it.
...
Another fruitful year came and went and I was back in Konoha for my dearest little brother. This time, I made sure to bring him several good sets of clothings.
Wouldn't want him fancying Orange now, would we?
I also brought him some birthday gifts. Afterall, no one really celebrated his birthday with him...
During my stay with him, I found that no form of rumours had started yet, which mean Danzo and his fuck buddies are taking my advice to heart or they were still undecided.
During this time, I also brought Naruto and Sasuke together.
The weird thing about them... Even as kids, they had this love hate relationship days into their friendship.
Naruto was the wimpy kid kinda baby while Sasuke was the tsundere kind. Tough on the outside, extremely soft on the inside.
I had given them both a sunflower and told them its significance. It was a flower meant as a symbol of friendship. That meant they had to be friends forever.
Naruto's sunny smile was so bright that I could've gone blind while Sasuke was by himself trying to hide his happiness. The blush on his cheek gave him away though.
{A/N: Pictures up there!}
One time someone had bullied Naruto in the playground and little Sasuke stood In Front of the crying Naruto with a hard look on his face.
Image
It was so cute that I couldn't resist bringing out a Calogram to take pictures.
Shortly after that, they went back to their usual love-hate relationship. I and Mikoto had the time of our lives watching them.
Itachi, unfortunately, wasn't with us as the pressure finally got to him... Both from the clan and the Hokage.
Not having anyone to back them up, the three were thrust into the hell hole that was called Shinobi life.
Meh... That would make them more experienced than their peers so I guess it's okay.
