Chereads / Naruto: The Better Haruno / Chapter 6 - Prelude to the academy

Chapter 6 - Prelude to the academy

Huff huff huff huff

I was standing in the middle of the training ground out if breath while the grounds were covered in water and up turned earth, Its been a couple months after that incident with ino and I would be lying if I ssid things weren't slightly tense.

Ever since that day clans men and women have been glaring and whispering at me when ever they would see me even clans that had no involvement in the matter would look at me in disgust.

The only clans that didn't seem to care where the uchiha, huyga, sarutobi, inazuka, and shiberame clans.

Every other clan acted like I curssed their three generations or some other wuxia shit like that.

But they couldn't touch me in public at least because of my grandparents but their have been instances of slight agressions towards my family, some being the shops that are owned by certain clans refusing us service or increasing the prices of their good for us only.

Luckly not everystore was like that so we just stoped going to said stores, my father told his about what happend and they told other civilians which led to an almost complete collapse of the market.

I was surprised that they rallied around us like that I honestly wasn't expecting such unity from them, but what happend next shocked me to the core.

The yamanaka clan head. And his family came to our home and after a couple of hours of auguements and explanations we came to a peaceful resolution, ino was still upset but other than that my family was no longer being alienated from their stores and everone went back to shoping at their stores.

Moving on from that whole situation after my mother let me learn the new jutsu I had them mastered in less than a weak, although the jutsu werent that impressive

The jutsu i had received were the water bullet and the earth wall justu, nothing powerful but than again Im not even in the academy yet let alone a ninja so for now they'll do.

Right now I am attempting to learn and perfect tsunade's monstrous strength jutsu, according to the anime to achieve this jutsu you have to focus chakra into a certain part of your body condense it than release it at the exact moment of impact.

'Now that i think about it this jutsu is very similar to the black flash from jujustu kaisen' I thought while gathering my charka in my fist.

"Agh dammit" I yelled while shaking my hand trying to ease the pain of condensing too much chakra in my hand.

"I guess 6 is too young to be training this justu" I said while looking at my shaking hand that had visible bruises on it.

"Well lets shelve this for now, there's less than a month left before I enter the academy so I guess I'll start my physical training to increase my stamina and endurance, then I'll revisit training this jusus when I graduate, but for now lets go home" I said while backing up my things and heading home.

Three weeks had passed and it was the last day before entering the academy, when i got home that day I told my parents I was interested in learning medical ninjutsu my mother was elated at that hopeful that I would become a medic nin instead of a genin, I told her that I only wanted to learn it because having a medic in the field was important to a team's survival and her enthusiasm droped slightly but their was still a hopeful look in her eyes.

My father then went to my grandparents to ask them for help in getting me an intership at the hospital, I had assumed that i wouldn't get it but I had underestimated my grandparents influence.

With their help I was in the hospital's training center healing fish by the end of the week, when I got there I was surprised to find that I was not the only young child there, there where some genin, chunin, and even some adults there as well all trying to heal fishes with minimal success.

I was surprisingly struggling with the healing jutsu, mainly because I havent been training my yin-yang release at all, even after these three weeks I've barely been able to completely seperate my yin-yang chakra let alone amplify either but I'm slowly making progress.

As I was about to get ready to go to bed my parents came into my room to talk.

"Hey honey how are you feeling about tomorrow?" My mom asked

"Im excited about it I can't wait to learn how to be a ninja" I said with genuine excitement

"Ok well I want to remind you that if you ever feel too pressured or feel like you can't continue there is no shame in wanting to quit and join a different profession" Mom said

"And regardless of what you decide we'll always support you, never forget that" dad said

"I will, I love you both" I said while being squished in between a family hug

I trained my chakra capacity and went to sleep ready for my first day at the academy.

HOKAGE OFFICE

Hiruzen was In a meeting room with the teachers of the academy discussing the new freshmen class.

"These new batch of seedlings look promising" Hiruzen said while smoking his pipe

"Is there anyone who you'll be keeping eyes on?" Hiruzen asked while giving the teachers permission to speak

"Well according to the reports there are alot promising students among this batch, but the outliers are sasuke uchiha, hinata huyga, shino aburame, kiba inuzuka, shikamaru nara, choji akimichi, ino yamanaka, and sakura haruno" iruka said reading off a list of intel gathered by the anbu.

"Sakura haruno hmph, I don't think the rumors surrounding the civilian princess are credible, its nothing more that the civilian council talking out of their asses" Mizuki said with a huff

"Mizuki Im surprised that's your stance on this considering that you yourself were from a civilian family" the principle of the academy said with confusion on his face

"Thats exactly my point, the council are clearly biased due tto the girl being the head council member's granddaughter, they never cared about the potential of other civilians or orphans until this girl was born, even the sanin were not paraded around as much as this girl is" Mizuki said with venom in his voice.

"So what you're saying is your jealous of a little girl" said the voice of a silver haired man with a mask on his face who was very late for the meeting.

"And where have you been kakashi?" Hiruzen said with a slight smile on his face as kakashi leaned against the wall in the back of the room

"Sorry lord hokage I got lost on the road of life and took a few wrong turns" kakashi said with an eye smile while completly ingnoring Mizuki's glare

"Anyway back to my point, mizuki it seams like your skepticism doesn't stem from a logical stand point but an emotional one " kakashi said while finally addressing mizuki

"What are you trying to say" Mizuki said while griting his teeth

"Well what im saying is you are too upset about nothing more than rumors according to your own words, and even if the rumors are true it won't matter much, as every one here knows talent doesn't make one a ninja let alone a good one" kakashi said as he continued.

"In the end while you were trying to show the bias of the council you only showed your own bitterness and bias against the civilian council" kakashi said as he turned his atention away from mizuki and closed his eye seemingly ingnoring him.

"Why you damn-" Mizuki shouted but was interupthed by the hokage

"That is enough mizuki its time to move on to different matters" the hiruzen said changing the subject

"Its now time to discuss narito uzumaki" hiruzen said and the room went quiet but a palpable tension and bloodlust permiated the air at the mention of the name which caused hiruzen to sigh

" after a long talk with the elders of the village it was decided that naruto will be placed with this batch and if he fails again he will be taken out of the academy" hiruzen said with a frown

The bloodlust in the room vanished and some smiles could be seen on most of the faces in the room

"Lord hok-" iruka was about to interrupt but the hokage interrupted again

"Thus is an order no objections will be tolerated" hiruzen said while flaring his chakra which caused everyone to quiet down and stand at attention.

" With this last statenent the meeting is adjourned, go home and rest and be prepared for tomorrow" hiruzen said as he watched everyone leave

"Kushina, Minato I am doing my best to care for your son, I hope you can forgive me" hiruzen said as he looked up at the roof of the meeting room as if looking far off into the distance.
