Chapter 17 - Kushina Uzumaki?
----------------------
It has been Months since Meeting Nawaki, and while Natsuki did relay the message, he didn't care if Ruri and Nawaki fought, as he was creating a sensible plan to extract some blood from Nawaki as he was a Senju.
Who knows, it might be the key for him to break the bottleneck of his research that he has been having for the past couple of weeks.
"Silence." Fujimura Daiga entered the room and told us to be quiet, which we all did. He walked to the podium, standing on it and addressing us.
"Today, as the start of the 5th Year, we have a New Student among us. Please welcome her." Natsuki raises his eyebrow, questioning how a new student could come. has 'she' been promoted from some other class.
From the Door, comes a girl who is 11 years old with Bright red hair, a nervous expression adjourning her face. a person so familiar to Natsuki that His eyes almost bulge out of their sockets due to the shock he is experiencing now.
"Go on, introduce yourself." Fujimura looks at the Girl warmly, who looks extremely nervous. She turns to all of us, her violet eyes showing nervousness.
"My Name is Kushina Uzumaki -dattebane!" She recoils on her own words, as the rest of the class laughs at this. Fujimura tells them to shut up, while Kushina goes as red as a tomato.
"Are you okay?" Ruri pinches Natsuki in the stomach, causing Her to look at her, His shocked face still present. Natsuki's brain starts to restart, letting him answer Ruri.
"....No." The stupidest thing to answer when someone asks if you are okay is answering with a yes, since that will lead into suspicion, which Natsuki is trying to avoid. Ruri raises her eyebrows, so Natsuki decides to elaborate a little bit with the first thing that comes to his mind.
"My stomach is rumbling, it seems I ate something bad." Natsuki looks at Fujimura who points to the empty seat in front of Natsuki, and Natsuki tries not to think anything about this. Ruri shows a disgusting face while scooting away from him a little bit.
Kushina Walks to the seat, noticing Natsuki behind her but is too embarassed to speak up, sitting in her designated seat. Natsuki stares at the bundle of red hair, which Ayane notices, tapping him and asking What happened.
"He is holding his shit!" Ayane, who normally is a kind individual, shows disgust for the first time after hearing Ruri's comment, scotting away from Natsuki. Kushina snaps her head back to stare at Natsuki, who is looking down in embarrassment, not showing his face.
-----------
The day ends, with Natsuki deciding to go to his home to understand what had happened. He tries to understand how such a shift in the storyline could happen. From what he remembers, Kushina was supposed to be in Minato's class, which was 5-B. Why is she in his class?
Natsuki doesn't do any research for the entire day, as he tries to understand how this change occurred, and after hours of thinking he comes to three conclusion-
1) His existence somehow changed everything, which is the least likely since he has never interacted with anyone that was important to the Main timeline, except maybe Nawaki, but Nawaki was only important to Tsunade, not to the existence of Naruto.
2) Kushina would be demoted to class B for some reason, mostly for people hating her as a Jinchuriki.
3) The entire Canon as Natsuki knows might have been Mixed up. This is the most logical Conclusion since Uzumaki Clan, or the Uzushiogakure exists and still is allied with the Leaf village.
there is another one, and he isn't confident in that. Natsuki feels that he has somehow taken the Spot that Minato was supposed to take in A Class, causing Minato to be put in B class. but, he isn't sure if that is the case.
Natsuki knows that things have gone to shit, but this reinforces his goal to get the hell out of this Village, since he guesses that he might be sucked into anything else that might ruin his chances.
----------
This winter was colder than usual. Snowflakes drifted gently from the sky, painting the heavens a pale white. The cold wind swept through every corner of Konoha Village, and in this biting season, most people chose to stay at home by the warmth of their hearts unless they had pressing matters to attend to.
For the students of the Ninja Academy, however, school went on as usual.
In Class 5-A, Uchiha Ruri sat by the window, wearing a black long-sleeved top and matching pants, a white scarf around her neck. Her sleek black hair cascaded down to her waist like silk. Resting her chin on her hand, she gazed through the transparent glass at the snowy scene outside.
The playground was now blanketed in white. On days like these, she wished she could skip school entirely and enjoy a day at home.
Suddenly, a commotion erupted outside.
The noise shattered the tranquility of the classroom. Ruri frowned with visible irritation. These people were as noisy as a swarm of buzzing flies.
"Annoying bees." Ruri looks annoyed at the situation, even though she is curious as to why this is happening.
"Is it bothering you?" Kushina, who is sitting in front of Natsuki, turns her head to look at Ruri.
"Of course it is. But I suppose school is the only place where those idiots can find joy." Kushina giggles while Ruri smirks at her own Joke. Natsuki looks at this interaction from the corner of his eye and tries to ignore it, but it is difficult to do that.
Somehow, Ruri and Kushina became Friends. Kushina Proclaimed that she will become the Female Hokage, which caused the boys to tease her, but Ruri told them off for interrupting her peace. Kushina somehow interpreted this as Ruri standing up for her and sticking to Ruri like glue.
Ruri, who is always annoyed at everything, surprisingly didn't try to kill Kushina when she stuck with her. somehow, Kushina broke the barrier and became friends. Natsuki wonders How it is possible that Uzumaki's are able to become friends with Uchihas?
Kushina and Ruri also train together when Natsuki isn't training with Ruri. This means that Natsuki has to somewhat interact with Kushina, which he avoids like a plague. He doesn't want to interact with her, and When Kushina tries to initiate something, Natsuki gives an excuse and runs away.
Ayane comes to the classroom and sits beside Natsuki, while Natsuki decides to ask what is going on.
"What was all the noise outside about?" Natsuki asked as he took a bite of his lunch.
"Don't you know? Some Fifth-year students are attempting early graduation. Today's the day they're being specially evaluated. Apparently, three students from our class are trying it. Oh, and Minato Namikaze from Class B is also among them," Shiraishi replied.
"That blond boy? I hear he's the top of Class B." Ruri looks at Ayane with a raised eyebrow, surprised to know that the B section is also participating.
"Even if he's the best in Class B, he wouldn't stand a chance against you, the top of Class A." Kushina's confidence in Ruri's abilities brought a faint smile to her face.
"I never underestimate anyone," Ruri replied. Despite her words, she found Kushina's praise satisfying.
Class soon began, and their teacher, Fujimura Daiga, entered the room and started the lesson.
The curriculum for fourth-year students was more complex than the earlier grades, covering a wide array of topics. For civilian students, these lessons could prove invaluable. However, for someone like Natsuki, who was already capable of self-study at an advanced level, neither the indoor or outdoor classes held much meaning.
Natsuki, for instance, was busy drawing diagrams and writing notes in his notebook, annotating them with formulas. These were preparations for an important experiment scheduled for the evening.
And so, time quietly passed.
--------------
The occasional light snow still fell from the sky. Though the weather had warmed slightly, it was still bitterly cold. In these chilly days of late winter, an event occurred that caught everyone off guard and shattered the peace of Konoha Village.
The news was shocking: Sunagakure (the Hidden Sand Village) had launched an assault on the borders of the Land of Fire, causing heavy casualties among Konoha's border forces.
Sunagakure had officially declared war on Konoha.
It had been just over a year since the war in the Land of Rain ended, but now conflict had reignited, this time involving the Hidden Sand—a fellow member of the Five Great Shinobi Nations. Led personally by the Third Kazekage, a large force of Sand shinobi invaded the Land of Fire, challenging Konoha to battle.
The tension in Konoha Village was palpable. The peace and tranquility that had returned after the Rain Country conflict were swept away in an instant. The Hidden Sand Village, unlike the Rain Village, was a major power. Their mobilization speed and the quality of their shinobi were leagues beyond what the Rain ninja could muster.
Whereas the Rain ninja's strength was largely tied to their leader Hanzo, the Sand Village boasted the leadership of the Third Kazekage, renowned as the strongest Kazekage in history. Supporting him were legendary figures like Chiyo and her brother Ebizo, both veteran shinobi known throughout the ninja world.
Moreover, the Hidden Sand had a formidable puppet brigade, which had previously caused immense trouble for other villages during past wars. This time, the Hidden Sand came with overwhelming force, and the situation was dire.
It was as if the Rain Country conflict had merely been a prelude to the Second Great Ninja War, and now the real war had begun. The atmosphere in Konoha grew heavier as the weight of impending conflict settled over everyone. A state of emergency was declared, and the Third Hokage convened an urgent meeting with the village leadership.
That same evening, a large number of Konoha's active-duty shinobi were dispatched to reinforce the Land of Fire's borders. The major ninja clans also sent their elites to confront the Sand forces.
War was imminent.
THE END
