Chereads / Naruto: The Better Haruno / Chapter 4 - Talented!?

Chapter 4 - Talented!?

It's been two weeks since sakura started her chakra control training and to say sakura was shocked with her progress would be an understatement.

She knew from the manga and anime that Kakashi had said that sakura had the best chakra controle he had ever seen but she just assumed he said that because also acording to him she had very low chakra capacity for her age group barely surprassing ino,tenten, and rock lee.

But on the second day of her training she had completely mastered the leaf exercise and two more days after she could walk on walls as easily as breathing, water walking took her almost five extra days until she could confidently say she mastered it.

Her parents already considered her to be a genius and with her grandparents on the civilian council she decided she wouldn't hide her talent so she approached her parents and showed them what she could do.

Her father shouted and danced so much that day the neighbours thought he became a drunkard while my mother who I could see was happy had slight worry and unease in her eyes when ever she would see me training or hear my father talk about my future prospects.

After a while I asked my father to teach me the three academy jutsu My mother wanted me to wait until I got into the academy but my father was riding the high of my talent so he convinced her and she eventually relented and allowed him to teach me those jutsu only, not that he knew too many anyway since my parents gave up on ninja live very early on.

It took me two days to master all three jutsus my father was astounded seeing my talent up close.

"You're truly amazing sakura, I knew you said you learned how to control your chakra fast but actullay seeing it up close like this is both impressive and disheartening, it took me almost two full years of my academy days to master them" Kizashi with a fake envious look.

"Hahaha thanks daddy, do you know any other jutsu?" Sakura asked knowing the answer

"Erm, well, I-... Sigh no sakura unfortunately I don't, me and your mother realized that the ninja life wasn't for us at an early age so we retired early and got regular jobs, then when the time came we got married and then a few years later you came into our lives" Kizashi said with a reminiscent look on his face.

"Sakura, I hope you dont feel pressered to succeed where we failed, If you ever wanna quit the ninja life we won't judge you, hell your mother woild jump for joy at the thought" Kizashi said with a serious face.

"Dont worry dad I don't feel pressered nor will I quit, I want to be a strong kunoichi even stronger than tsunade-sama!" Sakura proclamed loudly

"Hahahahaha well its good to dream honeybun but what ever you do regardless of what you choose we'll always be in your corner now lets go home" Kizashi said while thinking my statement about surpassing tsunade was just a child's enthusiasm.

Of course my father couldn't hold in his pride for me and blabbed to my grand parents about my talent against my mothers wishes, when I saw my father the next day his face was black and blue and their was a pillow and blanket on the couch.

My grandparents while not as excited as my father was were still elated by the news and couldn't wait to brag to the council about an shinobi genius that came from a civilian back ground.

My grandparents were really excided because when a ninja with a civilian background reaches a certain level if prestige in their respective villages they can earn the right to make their own clan and thus earning a spot among the ninja Council.

Contrary to most beliefs you dont need to have a bloodline limit or a kekkei genkai to birth a ninja clan you just need prestige and a vote from the ninja councle and you can establish your own clan, of course this process is no where near as easy as decribed but thats the process nonetheless.

My grandparents being the politicians they are really want to get their hands in the ninja council so my being talented was a true blessing from the god of shinobi himself, the even used their political power to get civilian ninja to buy me ninja supplies like chakra paper, kunai, and shuriken.

When we tested my charka nature or should I say nature's to say I was surprised was an understatement.

One week after my grandparents visited a chunin with civilian backgrounds came to our house and said my grandparents sent him to test my chakra nature and the train me if out nature's align, once again my mother was livid and she demanded my father go and tell them that their help was not needed but after two hours of him convincing her that this was for my benefit she reluctantly let the ninja in and let him test me.

The chunin hadned me the paper and told me to pour my charka into it, as I was pouring my chakra into the paper it than went half white and black, than got soggy and then turned into earth and crumbled away.

Silence...

"F-four charka nature's" my mother stuttered out in shock

My father fell on the floor unconscious while the ninja while also shocked didn't show it on his face due to his training.

"Thats amazing sakura I never seen four chakra nature's manifest at once, and going by the order of how the nature's manifested you have a high affinity for yin-yang release, both of which can be used in medical ninjutsu, fuinjutsu, and genjutsu" the ninja said with a smile.

He then brought out some low rakned water and earth jutsu scrolls and blaced them on the coffee table along with the kunai and shuriken and left the house to most likely report this to my grand parents.

As I was about to pick up my ninja supplies my mother zoomed past me faster tha tge speed of light and grabbed all of the ninja tools and scrolls.

"Dont even think about it young lady I made it perfectly clear that you'll only be learning the three academy jutsu you won't be learning new jutsu untill you graduate" my mother said in a tone that said this decision is final.

My father woke up and tried to placate her but she beat him back into into unconsciousness and then walked to her room with the ninja tools and Scrolls and then slammed the door shut.

'well fuck' I thought

HOKAGE TOWER

Hiruzen Sarutobi was sitting in a meeting with Danzo, Homura, and Koharu discussing villagr matters when the chunin who tested sakuras charka body flickered in front of them while kneeling.

"Report?" Hiruzen questioned

"Hai hokage-sama, I just finished testing the aptitude of the heads of the civilian council's granddaughter, and besides her high aptitude for yin-yang release she doesn't seem to be that talented although I wasn't able to see her in action she seems like a regular girl with above average talent but its still far too early to tell" the chunin said whole concluding his report with a bow

"Thank you for your report young man, you are dismissed" Hiruzen said with his signature grandfatherly smile

"Hai hokage-sama" the ninja said while body flickering away.

"Well danzo are you satisfied now? I told you it was nothing to worry about just those two old cronies letting their granddaughter's talent get to their heads" Hiruzen said while looking at danzo.

"Why are you even concerned with the child in the first place? you can't bring her into root due to her grandparents influence on the populace and civilian council" Homura asked genuinely confused.

"Its imperative we keep our eyes and ears to in the civilian population ever since Minato became hokage the civilian council have been becoming more bold with their demands, expectations as well as the laws of the village" danzo said with a frown.

"With the clans becoming more unruly and the skirmishes at our borders the last thing we need is the civilians thinking the have more power over the ninja that keep them safe" Danzo said with a cold glint in his eyes while leaking slight killing intent.

"Danzo you're paranoia is getting more and more out of control as the years go by" Hiruzen said with a sigh.

"Im sure the civilians are just excited about another genius coming from their population, besides talent while important dosent make one a splended shinobi hard work and loyalty does and right now is far to early to determine whether or not a four year old girl is a threat to village secerity" Hiruzen said with finality in his voice

"Besides we have other things to worry about like the Uchiha, our intel tells us that fugaku might have anithe prodigy on his hands" Koharu said changing the subject

"Not to mention we're still dealing with the fall out from the huyga regarding the kiri incident" Homura said with a frown

"Sigh... Im too old for this" Hiruzen said while continuing thair meeting.
