Chapter 7: Face to Face

--------------------------------

The hug ended and both were happy to be reunited, years had passed and they had a lot to tell each other, the ex-hokague invited him to a cup of tea which he gladly accepted while they both sat in the garden and the blond told him about his life, although of course with some omissions taking into account the extra listener that the blond had obviously noticed since he entered the village.

It was a brief conversation that the blond enjoyed very much, but as his master always told him, never shy away from a battle, sooner or later you will have to tear someone apart... well, the tearing apart part didn't fit, for now, the blond said goodbye with the promise of coming back to visit when a little boy with an exaggeratedly long scarf ran out into the garden.

-I'm going to beat you Ojisan and prove to everyone that I'm as strong as you- shouted the boy only to run towards the old man who only sighed while the boy tripped and fell face-first to the ground, apparently forgetting the step.

-You ran away from Ebisu again, Konohamaru- the old man said sadly while the blond looked on amused.

- He's a fool, he doesn't teach me anything, he just wants me to practice chakra stuff and that's no good. I want to learn incredible jutsus so I can beat you- said the little boy while shaking his clothes.

-What am I going to do with you Konohamaru- sighed the poor older man when the blond decided to intervene

-Your name is Konohamaru, right?- said the blue-eyed man, attracting the boy's gaze.

-y...yes- he answered somewhat embarrassed by the curious eyes of the blond man

- You know, without chakra control, you won't know how to do anything- the blond said dryly while the boy seemed ready to reply.

-Listen, even the most powerful ninja had to start like this, if you don't know chakra control you could die for not knowing how to manage it, you know I always had problems until my teacher taught me to correct it, look at it this way the faster you have a decent chakra control the faster you will start to learn jutsus, believe me, that's how it was with me-

For a few seconds, Sarutobi's grandson remained silent, the truth is that he had never considered death and besides the blond seemed like someone strong, maybe if he told him the truth, that was when Ebisu appeared and everyone immediately fell silent. The man with glasses tensed up, he recognized the blond and without wasting time he attacked the blue-eyed man.

-I will save you, don't worry!- and he launched himself at the blond before anyone could even say anything. The kunai he was wielding was stuck in the blond's chest.

There was a puff of smoke and the cold metal weapon was now stuck in a trunk while a smiling Naruto hung upside down from the ceiling, to say he was impressed was an understatement, little Konohamaru's eyes were bright with excitement at what the blond had done in a fraction of a second, it was when the man with glasses was about to attack again that the ex-hokague intervened.

-Enough Ebisu, Naruto-kun wasn't attacking us, he was already leaving- the man remained motionless while the blond said goodbye.

-Wait boss how did you do that, it was amazing- asked the boy looking excitedly at the blond

- Boss? Hehehe if you want to be that amazing you have to train a lot and of course have great chakra control- he said smiling while stroking the boy's head, - Plus I can see that you have good taste- he said while pointing to the scarf

Konohamaru smiled and told him that he would train hard to be as strong as him while pulling the confused Ebisu who had no idea what had happened there and surely didn't want to have it.

-Thanks for that Naruto-kun- the old man said happily to which the blond smiled before getting serious

-Well, it seems that he is a good boy, well, it is time to go see the Hokage- he said calmly as he walked out of the house.

-Do you want me to accompany you?- he asked seriously worried to which the blond only shook his head while putting his hat back on.

-No need, besides I would like to discuss this, I'll just see you later Ojisan- and without further ado, the blond left the compound walking towards the village leader's tower.

Back on the street, the blond walked calmly although deep down he felt anxious about this moment, yes anxious to jump on Minato and tear his head off, although of course, he wasn't going to do it, after all, how could he become a Ninja if the entire village was chasing him for killing their leader - you could go to Iwa Naruto-kun there they would surely treat you like a hero - suggested the red-haired demon in her mind which made the blond smile she always knew how to break the blond's tension.

On the other side of the village, a certain violet-eyed woman was leaving her favorite restaurant upset, apparently, her delicious meal was interrupted by a guy who had too much to drink and tried to be smart with her, she didn't want to take out her frustrations inside the small place so she decided to leave, there were still laws in the village and she wasn't going to beat up a civilian just because he was disrespectful, right?

That would have been the case if the drunk guy hadn't decided to follow her, assuming that her attitude was some kind of invitation.

-Come on, beautiful, so I can show you what a man is- he said with his breath reeking of alcohol while he pinched the woman's butt.

Now she was really upset, she didn't care about anything anymore, she was going to earn respect at the cost of that guy's blood, she was ready to tear his hand off when she turned around furiously - aggg what's wrong with you? - said the guy in pain while that stranger with the hat twisted her hand almost to the point of breaking it, Kushina blinked a couple of times while that stranger had the civilian well-held who was whimpering like a baby.

-They never taught you how to treat ladies- said the stranger with a cold voice that made the subject shiver as he seemed to have calmed down from the pain.

-Don't be like that, my friend...we can share her, I'm sure she'll be more than happy, right, darling?- said the guy, giving the redhead a lascivious look. That was enough. If there was one thing he had learned from his grandfather, it was that you should never disrespect a woman, no matter who she was.

CRACK

The guy's hand cracked as all the bones in it were broken with a squeeze, he complained of the pain and tried to attack the stranger who only turned gracefully dodging his slow punch and gave him a strong blow to the back before grabbing him by the head with his left hand and throwing him against the wall, instantly the guy fell unconscious.

Kushina was happy, this was the first time in a long time that someone defended her, although she still couldn't afford to trust this... stranger? There was something about him that seemed familiar, but she still couldn't identify where he came from.

-Thanks for the help even though I didn't need it- she said seriously while the stranger turned to her.

He froze when he saw her, she was a long-haired redhead with violet eyes, about 1.74m tall wearing a beige shirt with a red spiral on the shoulders and a short skirt from which black lycra shorts that reached her knees stuck out, her large breasts, perhaps a d cup, looked somewhat tight under that shirt, with a short waist and round hips with light skin a little more tanned than that of the fox inside her, the blond could feel the heat rise to his cheeks, as the kitsune's laughter could be heard inside him as she softly murmured - how perverted you are Naruto-kun - and the blond didn't understand why, for his part Kurayami, his white-haired sword, was next to the fox who watched everything amused from inside the blond, only she was somewhat nervous about the blond's reaction especially when he realized who she was.

-You don't have to give them, it's always a pleasure to help a beautiful lady- said the blond serenely making Kyuubi laugh harder, for her part Kushina blushed slightly, when was the last time someone had called her beautiful without knowing her or wanting something from her?

-Thanks for the compliment, but I'm married, you don't want to get into trouble- she said, saying "married" with some annoyance in her voice.

-If her husband is an idiot who doesn't take care of her then maybe he doesn't deserve her- said Naruto still not understanding who he was talking to.

-We agree on that but I don't think the Hokague's wife needs to be taken care of, don't you think- and that was where the blond froze.

He had been flirting with... his mother! Now he understood why the vixen called him a pervert and the reason for her outrageous laughter while Kurayami herself began to laugh at her master's misadventures, she couldn't blame him or accuse him of anything after all during her stay in the village she had barely seen the hokague let alone his wife, for his part the blond was now feeling something not very good about him, his heart was beating anxiously like it hadn't for a long time, he was happy deep down he always hoped she would recognize him and hug him apologizing for leaving him but he knew very well that that would never happen she would never be his mother and although she had accepted it a long time ago it still hurt from time to time feeding the resentment.

-Oh well then I don't want to get into trouble- the blond said forcedly as he said goodbye to the woman and walked away from her towards the tower, for her part Kushina felt her heart beat anxiously, she didn't remember when was the last time that happened it was strange it wasn't as if he had won her affection at first sight, she hadn't even seen his face and something inside her told her that loving him was something inherent to her but her mind screamed at her that it was something wrong and impossible, she decided to ignore her feelings as she had learned to do a long time ago and continued on her way she had agreed to go see her daughter at the academy, sometimes like this she was grateful that her husband's useless head lit up from time to time, letting the parents see the genin tests was a good idea.

In the tower the secretary was reading some files when the blond stood before her, she looked at the boy and blushed slightly when she saw those strange and serene blue eyes that stared at her, with a serious voice he spoke taking her out of her trance.

-Could I see the Hokage, miss?- he asked politely to which the assistant smiled and walked to the door to return seconds later with confirmation that he could enter, he said goodbye to her and entered the office.

It was a large office with green walls and several pictures on the walls reflecting different moments of the village, with a large window in the background and in front of it a large desk full of documents with the Hokage behind it, he looked serious and attentive wearing his classic white trench coat and with a slight smile on his face.

-Welcome to the Konoha village, how can we help you?- he asked seriously while Naruto felt himself fill with anger

-Vera Hokague-sama I would like to join your village- how difficult it had been for him to say those words "Hokague-sama" without cursing.

-Ah, I see, however, you are aware that you should be tested and have your background checked, aren't you? - said the blond leader calmly as he took out a form from his desk.

-Don't worry, I've never been part of any village, to tell the truth, I don't think I've been part of one before, I don't remember much about my childhood, only that I was always alone- said Naruto, lying shamelessly although not completely.

-I see, so I can assume you have no training,- he asked calmly while filling out the form.

-The truth is that I did have training from a good man who offered to help me, unfortunately, he passed away some time ago and only now did I feel ready to try to be a Ninja- answered the blue-eyed man remembering his two teachers.

- Well then, he must be at least close to a genin level, perhaps with some compensatory work he will be on par with our graduates, you know, today my daughter graduates among them, yes, she is my greatest pride- he said with something arrogant in his voice while in the blond's mind for the first time in a long time, the fox and the sword agreed, this guy was arrogant.

- Congratulations Hokague-sama- she said feigning joy in her voice, so her sister was graduating as far as she knew she should have graduated last year.

-Well, can you tell me your age? Since according to what you say, you don't remember where you're from, so we'll put Konoha as your home village- oh the irony, this blond was putting Konoha as his place of origin without knowing that he was actually from there.

-Of course, I'm 15- the man stared at him in a defined manner, this guy looked older than that age, how could he only be 15- I know what you're thinking but I grew up too fast and I'm not sure of my date of birth, my teacher assumed I was about 6 when he found me and we took October 12th as my birthday- he was lying like a pro and this idiot was believing it all, yeah, after all, having a cold-blooded killer and a demonic bitch as influences had been productive.

Minato became serious as this guy had been found when he was about 6, and he didn't remember much about his life, it was rare although not uncommon these cases where some traveler took pity on a poor homeless child and took him as his own.

-Well then all that's missing is your name to begin your tests- said the blond leader smiling while Naruto took off his hat, leaving the Hokague cold.

-My name is Ishura, Ishura Naruto- he said seriously while their eyes met.

Years of waiting had finally ended at last they were face to face, Minato could only see there the body of his son being controlled by this dirty demon who now stood before him with the intention of joining his village, he would have wanted to kill him right there but he needed it so he swallowed his hatred and smiled forcefully at the young blond, for his part Naruto could only remember the scene of his grandfather fighting against the anbu while he was taken away from the combat to never see him alive again, he wanted so much to unsheathe his sword and stain it with the blood of this man but he still needed it so imitating him he smiled and stretched out his hand.

The Yondaime grabbed Naruto's hand and they shook each other tightly, where the leader squeezed hard trying to subdue the young man who did not seem affected in the least and instead responded to the squeeze with the same force, in the end, they let go and Naruto opened and closed his hand giving him a sign that it had hurt.

-Excuse me, sometimes I don't measure my strength (that's how it should be, learn your place demon)- said and thought the older man to which Naruto just smiled

-Don't worry, I understand (don't even think it hurt me, you imbecile)- answered the younger blond with a smile on his face, -Could you wait for me outside to escort you to the academy, I have to see the genin tests and so we can see your capabilities, what do you say?-

-It would be an honor to be accompanied by you Hokague-sama- and the youngest blond left while Minato smiled and arranged his papers, apparently his teacher's assumptions had been correct, he didn't remember anything and that was fantastic, now he could finally keep an eye on the demon until the time came to use it.

Meanwhile, at the academy, the tests were about to begin the day before the preselection had been made and only those who had a high chance of passing had remained and in the backyard in some stands assembled for the occasion the relatives of the young genin aspirants gathered, on one side the parents of the civilians talked about how proud they were of their children while on the other the shinobi talked about the hopes they placed in their children, a little away from everything was a beautiful red-haired woman who was anxiously waiting to see her daughter's test, in the distance a woman with pink hair looked at her with some annoyance although deep down it was more like hatred.

Suddenly, her best friend appeared next to Kushina, a beautiful woman with dark hair and eyes, 1.70m tall, with a slim figure, dressed in a simple brown kimono that highlighted her slender line of breasts between a cody cup and a short waist who sat next to her friend who greeted her with a big smile.

-Hello, eager to see how your son Mikoto-chan does- Kushina asked the woman who only answered yes to start a calm conversation about the activities they had had during the day.

She was Mikoto Uchiha, Sasuke's mother, who had survived the massacre only because her red-haired friend had come to visit and prevented her from being killed by her eldest son, although seeing the attitude her little one was beginning to have towards everyone, including her, she came to wish that her friend had never arrived.

A while passed and the group was joined by the last member, a woman with short brown hair about 1.73, wearing today a sleeveless shirt with straps that barely contained her D-cup breasts that as always were without a bra apparently she did not believe in wearing this kind of garment with a gray jacket over it, and a somewhat tight black short shorts perfectly outlining her round butt while wearing Ninja sandals, her brown eyes like her hair were a little overshadowed by the tattoos on her face and the huge black dog with an eye patch that accompanied her.

-Hello Tsume-chan- said a slightly impressed Kushina while Mikoto shook her head at the woman's outfit selection.

-Hello girls, are you ready for the show?- those three had been good friends since the academy and from a distance more than one civilian looked at them not exactly with good eyes, fortunately, their wives were with them and immediately they behaved not like that a certain woman with pink hair - (and there are the 3 bitches, god how I hate them and who does that Inuzuka think she is to come dressed like that)-

For her part, Tsume Inuzuka, Kiba's mother, was as always being scolded by Mikoto who considered that her outfit was not suitable for coming to school, and as always the woman with wild features ignored her and then responded saying that she enjoyed life and that it was never too late to find some fun in the bedroom, as always Mikoto blushed and resigned while Kushina thought - (Kasumi-chan always tells me that Kiba is a pervert ... and I think I know where she got it from)-, to the surprise of more than one the Yondaime made an appearance taking a seat at the teachers' table, as always her friends remained silent for about 3 years since she had told them her situation and on more than one occasion Tsume suggested castrating him, curiously Mikoto agreed.

In the classroom where the students were waiting for their moment to shine in front of their parents, everyone was silent. Just a few seconds ago, that guy had entered after saying goodbye to someone in the hallway and now everyone was looking at him with curiosity, for his part, the blond was annoyed. First, he had to deal with his "dear father" and now he had to deal with these children because they had no other adjective but that, they still didn't know the world like he did. He resigned himself and began to walk towards a seat. There was still about an hour left for these pseudo-exams to begin.

He walked slowly to the top of the room and to the surprise of more than one, he passed by "the princesses of the leaf" as the daughters of the Hokage and Hiashi were called, more than one thought that he would try to get their attention especially a certain Inuzuka who was ready to fight for what "was his" but instead he continued on until he stopped next to Shino.

-Can I sit here?- he asked calmly, receiving a nod from the Aburame in response. The blond calmly took a seat next to the boy with dark glasses.

It was strange, that's what more than one of the boys in that room thought, after all, no one ever sat next to Shino because of his insects and besides this guy in comparison to them was quite tall, he was surely older perhaps some kind of repeater of another class, which made a certain Uchiha get up from his seat followed by his entourage of fans that had now been reduced to only a few no more than 6.

He stopped with his arrogant pose in front of Naruto who only looked at him discreetly and calmly without revealing his face under that hat - (black hair and eyes, pale skin, superior attitude, and a strong teme scent... this must be an Uchiha) - the blond thought amused while everyone looked at the situation.

-I don't know who you are, but someone who is so old must be quite bad at the shinobi arts, why don't you save yourself the embarrassment and leave, but first do yourself a favor and give me that sword, it looks like it's a good weapon and as a true Uchiha I deserve it- he said arrogantly while his fans cheered him on and a certain redhead sighed, that kind of women gave kunoichis a bad name.

-First of all, I'm barely 15, I'm taller than you because I eat well and I exercise, second, I don't know who the hell you are but I'm not going to give you my sword, Teme- answered the blond with an almost dead voice that made more than one person shiver.

Immediately the Uchiha fans jumped up shouting all kinds of insults towards the blond who ignored them completely until the penetrating voice of a green-eyed girl disturbed him.

-I don't know who you are Baka but that sword must belong to someone like Sasuke-kun not to you, give it to him right now- the girl shrieked attracting the gaze of the blond who remained silent for a few moments until he decided to speak.

- Are you a man or a woman? - he asked calmly, making the pink-haired girl more than annoyed.

-HOW DARE YOU ASK THAT?- the girl screamed/asked? The truth is Naruto wasn't sure

-Look at you, your voice sounds like a woman's but you're as flat as a man's... Are you a transvestite by any chance?- the blond asked happily, making the whole room burst into laughter.

The next thing everyone saw was a red and angry girl throwing a punch towards the boy with the hat, it was strong enough that it resonated throughout the room when it hit his head... at the last second more than one person was petrified, especially Sasuke's fans, who was the one who had received the blow, in a second the new boy had been replaced by the Uchiha who now lay unconscious on the floor with a huge bump on his head while the pink-haired girl screamed in despair, more than one person was happy for what he had done.

After a few moments, the black-haired man reacted by waking up and attacked without thinking or hesitating, he threw several kunai that never hit the target, this subject dodged them too easily, he tried to hit him with his fists but the only thing he managed was to fall to the ground when he put his foot in it.

-bad, very bad, never attack so angry it makes you lose perspective teme-chan- Sasuke was more than upset, this guy was making fun of him in a way he didn't think he would stand.

- Katon, Gōkakyū no jutsu (fire release, great fireball)- he launched his attack without even confirming the target, heading towards the benches where his companions were, without hesitation more than one moved before the desperate attack, except for a confident redhead ready to block it, a couple of hand signs the blond saw how he was making a fatal mistake, he got in the way of the fireball and faster than anyone could see he launched his own jutsu

-Suiton, yashi no uzu (water release, whirlpool palm)- and he threw his left hand forward as if imitating the juuken, from the center of his hand a huge disk of water emerged, spinning violently, intercepting the fireball that evaporated instantly, then stopped spinning and fell to the ground leaving everything wet.

Everyone in the room was shocked, this guy had performed a Suiton jutsu without any water source nearby which was impressive, for his part Sasuke was upset he had blocked one of his best attacks too easily and he didn't like that in the least.

-You are a fool, only you would think of launching an attack in a closed place, what if you had hit someone you could have killed them and I am sure that the Hokage would have more than punished you- Sasuke did not reply to this, he preferred to turn around arrogantly before sitting down again.

Then the blond turned to the redhead who looked at him extremely impressed, it was then that the blond noticed how his hat was on the ground and now everyone could easily see his face, but at this moment he was more interested in the girl in front of him... looking at her closely he recognized her as a redhead with blue eyes, quite pretty - (just like her mother)- Naruto thought fleetingly before mentally reprimanding himself for that last thing.

-May I know what you did? I was going to stop Uchiha-teme's attack- said the red-haired girl in a haughty voice while the blond stared at her.

-I recognized the seals you were doing, it was a futon jutsu, right? Which one was renkudan?- impressed by the blonde's ability to recognize the jutsu just by seeing some seals, she just nodded

-impressive that someone so young knows something like that-, Kasumi smiled at the new boy's compliment – ​​and quite stupid that you want to use it like that, you realize that it was a fireball, you would have only fed it and hurt more people, you may be very pretty and talented but you are as unconscious as that fool over there, next time do your classmates a favor and use your brain before attacking unless of course you just have it as decoration- and without further ado the blond took his hat and after putting it back on he returned to his seat leaving more than one in shock after his little speech.

For her part Kasumi was now sitting, annoyed and frustrated with this guy, first, he praises her for knowing an attack of that level and then he calls her stupid, unconscious and compares her to Sasuke, not counting that she had stolen his moment after all his attack could have easily gone through that fireball, but then the remains would be bigger and instead of being a ball it would have been a ring of fire that would not have harmed her but would have harmed the others, she cursed in her mind that boy was right but that did not give him permission to call her stupid... nor very pretty and talented, as soon as she remembered that last thing she turned a little red, he was the first boy who told her that without trying to conquer her.

On the other hand, her seatmate, the Hyuuga heiress, was very quiet in fact as she played with her fingers and looked at the ground trying to hide her face as red as a traffic sign, still remembering the scene in front of her eyes of that blond boy protecting her and Kasumi from that big ball of fire that was heading towards them – (he's quite handsome) – thought the Hyuuga as she turned redder again, if that were possible.

For his part, Naruto was back in his seat now with his hat raised, there was no point in trying to hide his face after all everyone had seen him, more than one looked at him with intrigue after all they had never seen someone with those features, to his surprise there was a certain girl one of the Uchiha's fans with long blonde hair tied in a ponytail with blue eyes, dressed in an outfit with a lot of purple and wearing bandages on her legs who looked at him insistently, the blond stared at her for a couple of seconds and she winked at him before blowing him a kiss - (great now I have a fangirl) - the blue-eyed man thought, already resigned.

-What you did was right- said the calm voice at his side so Naruto turned to the Aburame

-Excuse me, what were you saying?- Naruto asked, still doubting that he had heard him speak.

-I said that what you did was the right thing, both Uchiha-san and Namikaze-san, assume that because they come from important families as well as having powerful jutsus at their disposal they can do whatever they want without considering the consequences for their companions, it was nice to see how someone indicated to them that their actions have repercussions, my name is Aburame Shino by the way- said seriously the boy with glasses making the blond smile

-Hey, at least someone here understands, I'm Ishura Naruto, it's a pleasure Shino-san- replied the blond, holding out his hand.

For a moment the Aburame hesitated, after all, most people avoided physical contact with members of their clan due to the use of their insects but this boy looked and acted different, who knows maybe this possible professional relationship could turn into friendship.

-It's a pleasure Naruto-san- and they both gave each other a good handshake, Naruto smiled, it seemed that he had made a friend, maybe returning to the village had not been such a bad idea after all.
