章 8: Chapter 8:- The Hokage
"Mom, what do you think about this?" Naruto asked with a smile.
Seeing Naruto holding the orange-colored T-shirt, Kushina sighed in disappointment.
"Naruto, I don't understand your obsession with orange color."
"So that's a no, huh." Feeling disappointed, Naruto put the orange T-shirt down.
"Look son, do even realize how handsome you're?" Naruto looked confused. For as long as he could remember, it was Sasuke who was the most popular Guy in his class. So he just naturally assumed that he wasn't Handsome.
"Naruto you have a handsome face. But you can be even more handsome and cool if you carefully pick your clothes. Although I understand that orange is your favorite color, that doesn't mean all orange-colored clothes are going to look on you." Naruto carefully nodded his head. In his other world, he never paid that much attention to his clothes. He just brought every cloth that was orange.
"Now, let's try this on." Kushina handed Naruto a black Shirt.
"Alright." With Kushina's help, Naruto put on the black Shirt.
Looking at himself in the mirror, he had to admit that he looked really good.
"I told you, Dattebayo!!!" Kushina grinned.
"Yeah.....!!!"
While looking himself at in the mirror, he noticed that a few of his hair had turned Crimson. At the same time, Naruto felt as if he had gotten taller slightly.
『Notice!!! As your bloodline continues to purify, the host will become more handsome, more taller, and eventually, all of your blond hair will turn Crimson red.』
'So that's why....!!'
Kushina continued to bring different types of clothes for Naruto. He had no choice but to try all of them.
When she brought him pants, Naruto used shadow clone jutsu to help himself. After all, it would be seriously embarrassing if his mother helped him put on his pants.
This continued for more than five hours. Kushina pulled him from one clothing store to another clothing store. Regardless of how expensive his clothes were, she brought all of them even without bargaining. She didn't even look at the price of the clothes. If she thought that a certain T-shirt suited Naruto then she would buy it without even looking asking the price.
"Mom, I think that's enough." Naruto sweated looking at the large number of shopping bags that Kushina's clones were forced to carry.
"No.....!!! no...!! There are still a few clothing stores that I want to check." Kushina sounded very determined.
Knowing that there was no changing his mom's stubborn mind, he just went along with her.

Scene change____
"Hello, old man!!!! It has been a while." Kushina moved the white curtains and greeted the Teuchi.
He turned around and was very surprised at Kushina. "Hello! Kushina. It has been a long time." Kushina used to be his regular customer but after the death of her son and husband, she very rarely came to their shop. The last time she came here was around 3 years back.
"You look young as ever." Teuchi wasn't just joking. Kushina looked the same as she did 15 years back.
"And you have become older."
"Hahaha!!! I guess I have." Teuchi laughed before he turned his attention to the blond-haired young man standing next to Kushina.
"Oh....my!!! Who is this?" Teuchi asked. For some reason, looking at the young man, he felt he was looking at Minato. For a second, even the face of Minato overlapped with this young man's face.
"This is my son, Naruto." Hearing Kushina's words, Teuchi almost fell down in shock.
"But how?" Teuchi asked in shock. He knew that Kushina's son died in the Nine Tails attack.
"That's a very long story. I will tell you some other time. Right now, we are feeling hungry. Can we get two bowls of miso Ramen?"
"Coming up!!! Since you have found your son, this one is on the house. Enjoy yourself."
"Thank you, old man." Kushina grinned and Naruto grinned at the same time and sat down. Looking at Naruto and Kushina's grinning faces, Teuchi was completely sure that they were real mother and son. Both of their grins were the same.
"So what next?" Naruto asked his Mother. From his mother, he knew that he no longer had to hide his identity. But he wondered how his mother was going to tell everyone that he was her son. After all, in the eyes of the public, Naruto had died 15 years ago.
"We are going to meet old man Hiruzen. It has been a while since I met him." Kushina wouldn't have disclosed Naruto's identity if Naruto hadn't expressed his intention of wanting to join the Academy and graduate along with his old classmates.
"Alright."
Meanwhile, words started spreading around the whole village that Kushina was walking with a blond-haired young man who looked a lot similar to Minato. The rumors eventually reached the ears of the Hokage, Hiruzen, and also Danzo. While Hiruzen did not take any action. He merely used the glass orb that he had to see what the blond looked like, Danzo immediately sent a few of his root Shinobi to keep an eye on Naruto.

Scene change____
"The Chief Ninja is ready to meet with you both. Please go on in," said the man with blond hair who worked for Hiruzen, speaking with respect.
Click!!!
Following his mother into the Chief Ninja's office, Naruto felt a rush of emotions upon seeing the elderly man.
The old man, Hiruzen, had a presence that was both wise and commanding. He wore the official hat of the village leader, a wide-brimmed hat with a symbol that represented fire. His face was aged with experience, marked by lines that told of many past challenges and victories. His eyes were sharp and kind, a sign of both the battles he'd seen and the care he had for his people. The beard on his chin was well-trimmed, adding to the dignity of his stature.
'Old man, this time, I am not going to let you die. That's my promise.' Naruto thought in his mind.
"Good evening, Kushina. How have you been doing lately?" Ever since Minato died, Hiruzen has tried to pull Kushina out of her depression but nothing worked. She stopped smiling. But today, it was as if the old man Kushina of the past had returned. Kushina was smiling. She was full of positive energy.
"I am fine, Lord 4th. Lord 4th, there is something extremely important that I would like to talk about." Kushina seriously said.
"I am listening, Kushina," Hiruzen said as he removed the Hokage hat and put it on the table.
"Lord 4th, before I speak, allow me to create a sound barrier. There might be hidden eyes and ears." Hiruzen nodded in understanding. Even in the past, he had caught a few spies from root.
The next second, Kushina took out a blue talisman. As she put the talisman on the table, a transparent blue barrier formed around the whole room.
"This is going to be a long story. So which version of it do you want to hear?" Kushina asked.
"Obviously I would like to hear the long version of the story," Hiruzen said.
"Then it going to take more than just a few hours."
"Alright just tell me the story version of the story then." Hiruzen quickly said. As the Hokage, he was a very busy person. He didn't really have that much time on his hands. He could always know the longer detailed version of the story.
"This is Naruto. And Naruto is my son from another world." As Kushina finished her words, Hiruzen's jaw dropped to the ground.
Seeing Hiruzen's reaction, Naruto and Kushina both chuckled.
Hiruzen did not question Kushina's words. He instead looked at Naruto's face. 'Now that I look closely, he does have Minato's blue eyes, and his hair and his face do resemble Kushina's face. But how?' Hiruzen couldn't wrap his head around the whole thing of another world.
"In a way, you could also say that Naruto is from the future. He knows about the events that are about to befall upon this world as these events already have taken place in his world."
"But that does not make any sense." Hiruzen was known as the Professor for a reason. He knew about every type of Jutsu in existence. It wouldn't be wrong to call Hiruzen the most knowledgeable person in the land of fire. Yet even for someone like him comprehending this seems difficult.
"And what exactly do you mean by events?" Seeing that Hiruzen wasn't still convinced Naruto decided to reveal some information.
"Grandpa, I know that Itachi Uchiha massacred his entire clan just so that he could protect the honor of the Uchiha and prevent a civil war within Konoha from breaking out." Hiruzen looked shocked. This was a secret that was only known by four people other than him. This secret was never supposed to be known by Kushina much less Naruto who claims that he is from another world.
