Alex wiped the tears from his cheeks, feeling the rush of emotions settle into a steely resolve. The familiar darkness of his mindscape enveloped him, a vast expanse where shadows danced and whispers of the past echoed. In the center of it all stood Kurama, the Nine-Tails fox, his orange fur gleaming like molten gold under the faint light.
Kurama regarded Alex with an expression that could only be described as pity, a rare sentiment for the fierce beast who had endured countless battles. 'Brat... I didn't know you were so hurt,' he thought, his deep voice resonating within the confines of Alex's mind.
Alex, however, wore a mask of indifference, the remnants of his tears wiped away, replaced with a carefully crafted smile. "What is it, Kurama? Now's not the time for emotional talks," he said, his tone deceptively light, masking the turmoil beneath the surface.
"Brat..." Kurama sighed, a flicker of annoyance crossing his features. "If you want to become stronger, I will help you." His tail flicked with a mix of irritation and reluctant empathy as he turned away, unsure of how to comfort the boy who reminded him so much of himself.
Both were the objects of hatred.
Alex sensed the depth of Kurama's sorrow, recognizing the echoes of shared pain in the beast's eyes. They were both products of hatred, treated as pariahs in a world that judged them for circumstances beyond their control.
"Thank you," Alex said, stepping closer to the cage that held the beast captive. With a moment of vulnerability, he approached and hugged one of Kurama's massive tails, feeling the warmth radiate from the creature. The gesture was unexpected, even for Alex, who typically shunned displays of affection. "Thank you, Kurama," he repeated, his voice barely above a whisper.
Kurama stiffened in surprise, his blood red slit eyes widening. He had never known the sensation of being appreciated. Alex's embrace was both comforting and bewildering, igniting emotions he had long since buried. For a fleeting moment, the beast felt a flicker of connection.
[Hug the Nine-Tails Fox]
{Hug the Nine-Tails Fox and make it real, even if acting is needed; the fox shouldn't know that you are acting.}
[Reward: Five Chakra Natures, 2 Elemental Natures: Yin and Yang]
Alex donned his emotional mask, completing the quest with heartfelt conviction. He felt a surge of energy as the quest notification appeared, signaling his success.
[Quest Completed]
The moment shattered as Kurama, feeling the embrace linger too long, kicked Alex out of the mindscape, overwhelmed by a mixture of embarrassment and confusion.

(Naruto's Apartment)
Back in his apartment, Alex gathered himself before heading to the forest, the weight of his encounter with Kurama pressing against him. He strapped on his gear, feeling the familiar weight of shurikens and kunai, and set out to sharpen his skills.
The forest welcomed him with the sound of rustling leaves and the distant call of wildlife. He began training his accuracy, his sharp blue eyes honing in on distant targets. Each throw of a kunai felt deliberate and calculated, every movement fluid as he pushed himself.
An hour later, a notification chimed softly in his mind.
[Accuracy Leveled Up!]
[Accuracy Level 31]
Alex's focus sharpened, and he pressed on, the thrill of improvement fueling his determination. He trained for another eight hours, alternating between accuracy drills and hand-to-hand combat, each session meticulously planned to maximize efficiency. The sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows over the training ground.
[Accuracy (Level 40)]
[Hand-to-Hand Combat (Level 40)]
As he finished, a nagging instinct told him something was off. He sensed a malicious chakra lingering near the Hyuga Compound, a threat that piqued his curiosity, one of the perks of being the Jinchuriki of the nine tails was that he could sense the emotions of others, Naruto focused his chakra detection and found some foreign ninjas. With practiced stealth, Alex moved toward the source, blending seamlessly into the shadows.

(Hyuga Compound)
He watched as a pair of cloaked figures lurked in the treetops, their intent clear. They were waiting for an opportunity to strike, their eyes fixated on the Hyuga princess, Hinata, as she prepared to sleep.
Naruto, who saw them, sat beside them with his thief title, he became a being that belonged in the shadows, even a Hokage with the specialty of tracking would have a hard time detecting his chakra.
The team of ninjas struck swiftly, incapacitating Hinata with a swift chop to her neck before hoisting her over their shoulders. A quick flash of movement and Alex was beside them, an unassuming ally in their scheme.
"Hey, you look tired. Let me carry her for you," Alex offered, his voice casual as he slipped into their ranks.
"Thanks, kid. Here," one of the ninjas replied without a second thought, handing over the unconscious girl as they continued their escape.
As they dashed through the trees, Alex silently analyzed their movements, observing the way they navigated the branches with practiced ease. He matched their pace, heart pounding in his chest, but his mind was focused. He needed to time the movement.
Alex, with a simple motion, started dashing in the opposite direction and went straight to the Hyuga compound.

A few moments later, the duo realized something was amiss.
"Hey, where's the girl?" Ninja 2 asked, scanning their surroundings, confusion creeping into his voice.
"What do you mean? I gave her to him…" Ninja 1 responded, dread seeping into his tone.
An eerie silence fell over the forest, the tension palpable as realization dawned on them.
"YOU IDIOT!" the shout reverberated through the trees, a mix of fury and panic.
Alex could feel the shift in the Chakra of the Cloud Ninja as he deftly retraced his steps, positioning himself for the next move. With Hinata temporarily hidden away in a bush, he turned his attention back to the cloud ninjas, ready to reclaim his territory.
The sound of rushing footsteps filled the air, but the cloud ninjas were about to discover that they were not alone.
Before they could react, Alex struck. A series of chakra strings, nearly invisible to the naked eye, ensnared them, rendering their movements useless. He had honed this technique, allowing him to incapacitate enemies with minimal effort.
The heads of the ninjas rolled to the ground before they even realized what had happened, their shocked faces frozen in a final moment of disbelief.

Amidst the carnage, Alex's gaze sharpened as he rifled through the pockets of the fallen foes, discovering a small fortune in ryo—50,000, to be exact—and a scroll labeled with an intriguing name.
"Lightning Style: Static Pulse Jutsu?" he read aloud, curiosity sparking in his eyes. He quickly stored it in his inventory, recognizing the value it could bring to his arsenal.
However, he was cautious; evidence needed to be erased. As he prepared to store the bodies, he sensed another chakra signature approaching, and he melted back into the shadows.
When the next figure emerged, Alex's instincts kicked in. The familiar stance and the distinctive white eyes were unmistakable: it was Hiashi Hyuga.
"Naruto?" Hiashi's voice rang out, surprise coloring his tone. He scanned the scene, taking in the carnage and the bodies sprawled on the ground. "What are you doing here?"
Alex met his gaze, maintaining an air of calm amidst the chaos. "Did you do this?" Hiashi asked, his voice tinged with disbelief.
"Yes," Alex replied, nodding as he assessed the situation. "I saved Hinata from these Cloud ninjas. I hid her nearby, so they wouldn't try to take her again."
"Cloud ninjas?" Hiashi's expression turned dark, anger flashing in his eyes as he recognized the insignia on the fallen ninjas. "Those traitors!"
The air crackled with tension as Hiashi struggled to contain his rage. He sighed, then looked at Alex with newfound respect. "Thank you, Naruto. I owe you one." He pulled the boy into an unexpected embrace, an effort to forge a connection and acknowledge the boy's immense potential.
'Minato your son is a prodigy.' Hiashi thought as he looked at the boy infront of him, he knew the real identity of Naruto as well as the major clan leader too, his birth, his hair color, and his last name, it didn't take much of genius to figure out who he was.
"I think you should go, Clan Head of Hyuga. I will take care of this," Alex said, his tone steady and firm. "Otherwise, it could escalate into a political mess with the Cloud Village." He gestured in the direction where he had hidden Hinata, knowing that the clan head needed to be informed.
Hiashi nodded slowly, understanding the boy's logic. "When you're finished here, come to my clan in the morning. We can discuss things over breakfast."
"I'd rather not," Alex replied, his indifference evident.
"Just think about it," Hiashi insisted before vanishing in a blur of speed, using Body Flicker Technique to travel away from the scene.

With the Hyuga clan head gone, Alex turned his attention back to the fallen bodies. He stored them in his inventory, ensuring that there was no evidence left behind. Afterward, he walked to a nearby river, washing away any traces of blood from the ground.
Once he felt satisfied with his cleanup, he headed back to his apartment, only to be met with an unexpected sight. Three ANBU operatives awaited him at the door, their expressions hidden behind their masks, but their aura radiated authority.
"Where were you?" one of them inquired, his voice lacking any inflection.
The two behind him mirrored the same question, their stares unwavering. They had been watching over him, their mission driven by Hiruzen's orders.
Feigning ignorance
"Who are you?" Alex said as he took out his Kunai just to make the act seem more real.
"We are the Anbu, we were ordered to watch over, now tell me where were you, we were following you but you disappeared as if you melted in to shadows."
"I was training, you know that being watched while training is rude." Alex said as he stored the Kunai in his pouch.
As he stepped inside, they followed, looming behind him as he closed the door. The tension in the room escalated as Alex stood at the center, calculating his next move.
"Training?" the first ANBU said, skepticism lacing his words. "You were gone too long."
"Your concern is appreciated, and also that is a stupid doubt, what do you think training means so of course it took a while" Alex replied smoothly, dismissing their doubts with a wave of his hand. "Also, I'm more than capable of handling myself."
Naruto said as he kicked them out
"He is only 3 years old and he has got even stronger, he sure is prodigy even though he is the container of the Nine Tails, he is too much of a danger for this village, we should report back to the Hokage." The three agreed as one of them went to report back to the Hokage of his disappearance and of his unusual growth.
