Bab 15: getting rid of future trouble
"I haven't seen in a long time, kid. how are you" said the monkey
"I'm ok, old man, but why did you want to see me?" I tried to act as naive as possible.
"Nothing important, I just want to check on you, but heard that you been acting worried lately."
"who said that? he is lying to you"
" really, but I hear that you have been placing a leaf over your forehead. why will even you do that?" he sounds like a kind grandpa asking his grandson, but in fact, he was testing me.
'you really are a crafty monkey. you already know the answer, so if I answered with no, you will know that I'm lying, and I will be suspicion.'
'but if I answered with yes, I will be more suspicious, after all, how can 4 years old kid, with no clan or teacher, know Leaf Concentration Practice.'
the question of the monkey is a bit tricky. however, I already have an excuse.
I get closer to the monkey and whisper in a small voice "... I can tell you why I did that, but you must promise me, that you will keep a secret"
" don't worry Naruto, your secret will be safe with me" I rolled my eyes, hearing what he said. like hell, I will believe that.
anyway, I act like a naive and shy brat and said
"you remember when I told you about my dream of becoming a Hokage, right."
"Yeah, and I told you, that it's a great dream, and that you should work hard to make it a reality" he answered.
"That right, so I took your advice. and I start training to become stronger. after all, the Hokage must be strong to protect the village." I want to vomit, but I must keep the act.
"But how do you get stronger by placing a leaf over your forehead?" he is still trying to test me.
" When I was in the park, I saw that a lot of ninjas doing that, so I Imitate them. it was hard at first because the leaf always falls, but I got the hang of it.".
"how much time did that take you to do that?"
"I will tell you, but don't laugh at me.i know that I'm not that good, it took me half an hour to get the leaf to stay while the other ninjas did in second."I said in a shy voice, trying to make him believe that I was ashamed
when the monkey heard what I said, he Stares at me without blinking, his eyes get wider and his mouth slowly drops open.
"...how did you get the leaf to stay?" he tried to speak normally, but I can still feel the disbelief in his voice.
"I just thought that the leaf should stay, and it did"
this time, the light in eyes of Hokage dimmed a bit, and he starts murmuring "this unfair, it took me 3 days when I first did that, and I was8-year-old "
what I'm trying to do, is making the monkey believe that I'm some kind of genius, and not just a genius, but a super-genius.
if I convince him that I'm a real genius, a lot of problems will be solved.
being a genius give Me a lot of privilege, after all, no one will question a genius.
for example, Minato becomes the most powerful ninja in his time, and able to single-handedly wipe out an army of thousand Iwagakure ninjas.
Tobirama Senju created original Jutsu by himself, and they were all op, like the Impure World Reincarnation, Flying Thunder God Technique, and Shadow Clone Technique.
Kakashi was recognized as a prodigy and the best of his generation. he becomes a Genin at age of 5, chūnin at age 6, and jōnin at age 12.
and whenever someone asked '' how did they do that" they will be answered with" they are geniuses", no more explanation, just being a genius, give protection for this kind of question.
anyhow, it seems like the monkey believed that I'm a prodigy, and it wasn't like I was lying. maybe because of the bloodline evolution or because of my dojutsu, I'm more talented than the canon Naruto, and he was a prodigy.
the monkey wakes up from his disbelief, give me a complicated eye and said
"Naruto, you trust me, right"
"of course, old man. you are like a grandfather to me." I said the truth, and those words did really come from my heart, or the old Naruto's heart.
he really did see the monkey as a grandfather, but I don't. however, I will give him a chance, and what he will say is that chance.
after the monkey hear what I said, and felt the earnest in my word, he had a moment of hesitation, but it soon replaced with determination and guilt.
"then you must stop what you doing."
'sigh, you really have to do it, huh. I even had a small hope that after knowing about my talent, you foster me, but It seems that I was still naive. however, with this, I'm sure that my escaping is right, I even get rid of the hesitation that I did have'
"*sob*,b-but why? are you like the others, believing that I'm a demon and I will never be a Hokage" the tears that falling over my cheek are real.
it was from the canon Naruto's soul fragment that was influencing me, but now it fused with my soul, thanks to the emotion attack from the monkey.
'I'm sorry, Naruto. but two souls can't exist in the same body. I really didn't want it to be like this, however, it all goes according to my plan'
when I was talking to Minato, I felt like something is influencing me. so I used my dojutsu, and I found that a soul fragment of canon Naruto still exists, and what shocked me is that the soul fragment is growing and becoming more powerful as time pass.
and it will take sometime before it will be a danger for my existing. so I used my dojutsu, and I found two ways to get rid of it.
the first is by devouring it, but I will have to deal with the backlash of the will, and the benefits weren't good enough. so it was high-risk, low-benefits.
the second is given the soul fragment an emotional shock so that it will lose it will and automatically fuse with my soul. and that what I did.
after all, I'm not some idiot villain, who will wait until the hero is powerful enough to defeat him. and killing noobs was one of my favorite activities, in my past life.
