3. Negotiating and School

Kurama laughed as hard as he could.

Naruto getting tired of his laughs said "ok you can stop laughing, what's you're answer?".

"Hmm, kid I'll give it to you under one condition, if you let me take over your body sometimes".

"That is out of the question, sorry think of something else".

"Tch", realising his failed attempt at Naruto's body kurama rethought.

"How about this, after I accomplish my goals I'll voluntarily release you out of my body".

Hearing that Kurama's eyes widened, he was skeptical of it but staring into Naruto's eyes gave him a sense of trust.

"Ok deal".

Naruto then stuck his hand out as he bit it, "this shows I'm serious about it", seeing his sincerity, kurama also but his finger as they put it together.

"Ok, see you, I'll release the seal when it's safe enough for me without Hiruzen and Danzo knowing".

"Ok kid, see you" Kurama then went back to sleep.

Naruto then came out of his mind as he smiled at the successful negotiation, "know my plan is in motion, my clone is going to give me my sword once I graduate the academy".

———

Next day, six in the morning.

Naruto woke up and continued his routine along with his new weights, finding it quite hard he enjoyed the thrill of getting stronger, he felt every second he was whetting stronger although minuscule.

He then continued his routine as finished his training and ate.

*Whooosh*

Hiruzen then appeared as he sat down across Naruto. "Hello grandpa" Naruto said as he ate his fish.

"Hello Naruto, how have you been this past week, I heard you were beaten up by a man".

"Yeah, but it was my fault, so I apologised and he let me off" Naruto said as he stared as his food.

"Oh no worries, the man has already apologised to us for his misconduct and has given you a 1,000 ryo as his apology".

Smiling he handed the money to Naruto, Naruto took the money as he thanked Hiruzen.

"Thank you grandpa!".

After seeing Naruto's 'gratitude' Hiruzen felt he had accomplished his mission so he moved on.

"Also you will be starting at the academy tomorrow, I hope you have fun Naruto".

"No worries grandpa, I'll show them that Naruto Uzumaki is a saviour, and I'll prove to them and the villagers that I'll become hokage!".

Hiruzen laughed as he patted Naruto's shoulders, "ok Naruto I'll see you next month".

He then disappeared.

Naruto smiled evilly as he nearly puked at Hiruzens act of playing the Granpa, his manipulation was awful.

"Hmph, Hiruzen I know Orochimaru wants to kill you, but I won't let him, I'll kill you with my own hands."

"I want to see the face you make when you watch the village you tried so hard to protect crumbles infront of you".

Naruto then, used his Armageddon killing techniques as he practiced them. After finishing them, Naruto balanced on his hands as the floor creaked, sweat came down his face as hopped from one hand to another.

Finishing up his exercise, he made dinner, eating as quickly as he could, he laid on his bed and re-entered his mind.

——

"Kurama, give me some of you chakra, without it being detected by the anbu's".

"That isn't possible kid, so how about this, I'll teach you the skill of feeling emotions of another".

"That's fine with me", Naruto then sat down as he and kurama conversed and he tried the technique of feeling emotions.

For the rest of the night, Naruto in his mindscape sat cross legged as he continued training, after 4 hours he was able to feel the feelings of Kurama, he felt, shock, surprise and some hatred towards the leaf.

"Heh, seems like it worked kurama, thanks".

'Thanks? He can say thanks" kurama confused went back into his corner knowing it was time for Naruto to wake up.

Opening his eyes, Naruto got up as he took a shower in his small bathroom, he then stretched as he practiced his chakra control.

After finished up he made some fish and ate, walking out he had his green goggles on.

"Naruto has come out, make sure to monitor him on his way to the academy".

"Roger that" the anbu the followed Naruto, Naruto being used to this got lost in his mind, he remembered the day he saved hinata.

'Even when I was trying to avoid that, it seems like it was still fate for me to save her', after saving like in the anime she asked for his name with him reluctant to give it although he still did.

'I hope she won't bug me'. Arriving at the academy door, the ninja guarding the gate was surprised to see Naruto.

"Turn around you shouldn't be here".

Hearing that Naruto wasn't fazed, he handed a piece of paper as he walked past.

"You-" the ninja then looked down at the paper as he read, he then went quiet as he gritted his teeth, he couldn't disobey the hokage so he watched Naruto's back walk in.

"Thank god the hokage didn't enroll that demon fox".

"Indeed, with that our children can learn without that threat".

Ino, Choji, Sakura , Hinata and Shikamaru were all there with their parents.

"Tch, what a drag" said Shikamaru as he looked down, "dad how should I interact with Naruto".

Shikaku replied "just treat him normally son" he then patted Shikamaru's head.

"OMG, it's Sasuke-kun!".

"Ahhh Sasuke-kun!!".

"His so dreamy!", Ino said, "shut up hag, Sasuke is mine!" Sakura replied.

Sasuke walked in with his brother Itachi.

"Nii-san, I'll become first in the academy!" Sasuke looked at Itachi smiling.

"Of course Sasuke, you're amazing!" Itachi said with a lovel smile.

'Demon fox?, they must be talking about Naruto Uzumaki, the hokage has allowed his entry to the school so where is he?' Itachi looked around and soon saw Naruto walking in with an indifferent expression.

"The demon fox is here!".

A look of disgust flashed across all the children's parents, some children also looked at Naruto mockingly. Naruto not fazed by this walked inside the building as he made towards class 301.

He wasn't up for there ridicule in the morning, walking in he sat at the top of the class as he went to sleep.

Back at the field Itachi watched as Naruto didn't react to the hate and the disgust that was thrown his way, 'what a strong mind! It's truly tragic that a kid has to go through this".

Itachi sighed as he looked at Sasuke, Sasuke watched Naruto walk in the building, "Nii-san, why do they hate him?".

"Oh, I'm not sure sasuke, Naruto is an orphan so if your able to, be kind to him" Itachi said.

"Hmph, that's only if he'll be worthy of being friends with me" Sasuke said with a pout.

Soon Hiruzen arrived as he started giving his will of fire speech, as he spoke he looked around for Naruto but he wasn't able to find.

'Did Naruto not arrive?" After finishing his speech, an anbu appeared as he told Hiruzen Naruto was in class 301.

'This must be fate', after assign the children to there class room, they all entered.

Naruto heard a commotion as he woke up, looking towards the door, he saw Sakura, Sasuke, Ino, Choji, Rock Lee and Shikamaru enter.

Getting bored he went back to sleep. Shikamaru seeing him walked up to him as he introduced himself, "hey, I'm Shikamaru" he stuck his hand out.

Naruto stared at it before shaking it, "hello I'm Naruto Uzumaki". Choji then introduced himself, after the little introduction, Iruka walked in, seeing Naruto, he felt some disgust but since he was his teacher he refrained from doing anything.

Hinata watched from afar as her heart leapt, 'I'm in the same class as Naruto-kun!'.

As the class continued, Naruto had thought how much of his skills he should show at the present.

'I don't want them to increase the surveillance so, I should show enough, my physical strength is fine since they'll attribute that to my bloodline, but the rest I'll see when I get there'.

Afterwards the class finished as Naruto headed home. He walked away not saying goodbye to Shikamaru or the others, standing there awkward they said goodbye to each other as they met their parents.

The anbu's surveilling him reported back his interactions with the other kids.

"Atleast his not shutting himself away, I won't let you get Naruto Danzo" Hiruzen continued smoking his pipe.
