1 Chapter 1
(Forest outside of Konoha the night after graduation)
"IF YOU EVER TOUCH MY SENSEI AGAIN...I'LL KILL YOU" Naruto yelled as anger came welling inside of him and he looked down at his injured surrogate brother Iruka.
"Ha, like you could! I'll kill you in one hit" Mizuki sneered.
"Fine then, bring it on and I'll return it to you a thousand times harder. Kagebushin no Jutsu!" and suddenly the forest was filled with over a thousand shadow clones. Mizuki didn't have time to respond as he was attacked by a barrage of the orange-clad wanna-be ninja. "Eh? Guess I over did it huh, Iruka sensei?" Naruto asked sheepishly. Iruka was stunned. 'Maybe he could surpass all the hokage's someday' Iruka thought to himself. Little did he know, those same thoughts were going through the minds of two hidden observers.
"Naruto..Close your eyes for a bit" Iruka asked of him and doing as was asked Naruto closed his eyes and silently waited as Iruka took off his forehead protector and placed it on his favorite students head. "Ok you can open your eyes now," Iruka said with a voice full of pride. "I promise I will make you proud Iruka-sensei!" he said barely containing tears of joy.
"You already have naruto"
(Hokage Office)
"Well the kid definitely has guts and by the looks of it he also has a shit load of untapped potential. What do you think sensei?" asked a man with waist length white hair and red markings on his eyes. "Yes he certainly does Jiraiya, but with that much chakra it is no wonder poor Naruto couldn't do a standard shadow clone, he simply has far too much to control" Sarutobi hiruzen answered.
(Like is this guy stupid. We all know he was gonna have extremely large reserves because of the kyuubi and not only that but he comes from the uzumaki clan that has ridicously large reserves from the get go. It seems the proffesor as gone senile)
"Well I was gonna wait atleast a year or until the chuunin exams before I took the brat for training...but I think its about time I get to know my godson and start his training now" Jiraiya saidly proudly. "Hmm, Kakashi will not be happy with this outcome. He was hoping to have the boy on his genin squad, especially seeing as the councel will probably try and force him to pass his team because of the Uchiha" Hiruzen responded.
"Dont worry, I'll take care of that anyways but this is the same council that refused to let me take the brat with me when I had to leave for my resear- I mean spying, even though Minato and Kushina left me as his Gaurdian. What do you think the counsels orders are going to be to Kakashi. Train his students fairly or priortize more training for the uchiha then the others" Jiraiya argued. "Very well then. Im sure Naruto and Iruka are on the way here, would you like to stay and talk to him now?" Hiruzen asked.
"Nah Im gonna go catch up on my research" and with that the toad sage was out through the window. "I just wish for once he would use the door" the elderly hokage sighed and went back to stare at his paperwork before breaking out into tears.
