1 Chapter 1 - Uzumaki Naruto

Hidden in the leaves... A boy in the hidden leaf village was born by the sacrifice of both his parents... Protecting him from the Nine-Tailed Fox with their lives... Uzumaki Naruto. This boy grew up being hated by the people in the village, making him look like he was the cause of destruction a long time ago.

12 years later...

Uzumaki Naruto was laying on the grass with a view of the whole surrounding, relaxing by the atmosphere brought by the beautiful scenery...

"You're here again? Naruto... What a drag..." A voice rang from Naruto's ears so he opened his eyes and found a boy standing looking at him

"Yo! Shikamaru! What can I do? This is the best place to relax." Naruto said with a smile as if he was in a spa having a great massage

Shikamaru, one of the boys who didn't distance himself from Naruto and let adults influence his thoughts.

"Well... I agree with you on that..." Shikamaru said as he laid down besides Naruto

"So, Naruto... What'll you do after graduation?" Shikamaru small talked as he laid down beside Naruto

"Well... isn't it obvious? It's to be the strongest of course!" Naruto said with a smirk although Shikamaru was not looking at him, Shikamaru felt his expression based on his voice

"I thought you'd say that... that sounds a lot of work... What a drag..."

"Well, isn't it a lot more work if you're weak and go on difficult mission"

"Well... You're right about that... I hate it when you're right... What comes after that?"

"Well... I'll be able to enjoy a peaceful life in this cruel world of course! If you're the strongest then no one can disturb your quiet and peaceful life..."

"I don't need to become strong then since you'll shoulder the sky if it falls." Shikamaru smirked as he thought of Naruto being the strongest. As a close friend of Naruto, he, of course, thought that he could depend on Naruto.

"That's not right, Shikamaru... You should become stronger too so you won't die on missions!" Naruto sat down and yelled at Shikamaru's stage 3 laziness

"Yes... yes... What a drag..."

Naruto just sighed again as he looked at Shikamaru thinking about his laziness

"Anyway, I'm hungry. Wanna eat ramen?"

"Nah... I'll sleep here for a while..." Shikamaru yawned and slept instantly

"Well... I just go myself if you don't want to" Naruto stood up and used shunshin no jutsu to travel on the rooftops of the village houses

...

Naruto arrived at Ichiraku Ramen and said as he entered the shop "Occhan! One miso chashu ramen!"

"Sure thing! Welcome Naruto!" Teuchi smiled at him and cooked his ramen.

5 mins later...

"Here you go, Naruto. Enjoy." Teuchi said as he put the ramen on the table in front of Naruto

Naruto drooled at the sight of ramen and slurped noodles "Umeee! As expected of your ramen, Occhan! Delicious as always!"

"Even if you praise me you won't get free seconds!" Teuchi happily replied as he brushed his index finger in his nose to hide his ear to ear smile

"I know..." Naruto said pouting at Teuchi but continued eating his favourite ramen anyway.

a minute later, Naruto half finished his ramen,

"Ayame no neechan! I'd like a cup of water!" Naruto said, sweating at the ramen he ate.

"Here you go, Naruto! Eat well and Grow properly!" Ayame said as she gave Naruto a cup of water

"Yeah... Thanks Ayame no neechan!" Naruto said thankfully and drank the water and continued eating ramen

A little later... Naruto finished the ramen and put his arms together "Gochisousamadeshita."

"I'll leave the money here, Occhan!" Naruto said as he left the restaurant

"Thanks for eating! Come back when you're hungry!" Teuchi said with a smile at Naruto's back

"Yeah! Thanks Occhan!"

...

Naruto arrived at the academy and went to see Iruka "Yo, Iruka-sensei!"

"What do you mean 'Yo?', you're skipping morning classes with Shikamaru again!" Iruka yelled at Naruto for missing the morning class

"Hehe... The grass hugged my body so I couldn't leave, it wasn't my fault, Sensei!" Naruto said while he scratched his head telling Iruka an excuse

Iruka then put his fist on his head causing Naruto to have a lump on his head

"That hurts! Iruka-sensei!"

"I'll double that lump if I catch you skipping next time!" Iruka scolded Naruto

"Yes... Yes... I'm sorry..." Naruto said while scratching his head apologetically at Iruka

"I hope you do so, instead of just saying sorry..." Iruka sighed at Naruto's excuse which he heard a bunch of times already.

"You're graduating tomorrow already so come to class properly! Next class is Taijutsu class, your opponent is Sasuke, so prepare yourself."

Naruto smiled at what Iruka said and replied "Yes, sensei! If I can't even beat Sasuke, how can I be the strongest."

Iruka smiled at his statement and believed him. Although Naruto was lazy, he wasn't as lazy as Shikamaru and did his best during training.

Iruka is one of the people who doesn't distance himself from Naruto, although he distanced himself towards Naruto at first. He learned that Naruto is Naruto and what everyone else thought as he interacted with him.

...

Taijutsu class...

*ringgggg*

A ringing sound was heard everywhere signaling the start of the class.

"Yo, Sasuke! Iruka-sensei said that you're my opponent for taijutsu class. I hope you don't lose too badly!" Naruto said smirking at Sasuke

Sasuke snorted and said in response "Although you're strong, Naruto. You're not as strong as me! I won't lose to you!"

"Yeah... yeah... say that after you beat me..." Naruto said as he yawned

"Y-you basta..." Sasuke said but was interrupted by Iruka as he put his fist on Naruto's head again "Hey! Naruto! Save the trash talk for later when you fight!"

"Ouch! That hurts! Sensei! Stop doing that!" Naruto screamed in pain at Iruka's head punches

"Stop acting like that if you want me to stop!" Iruka scolded

"Since you're so excited to fight then why don't you two fight for the first round" Iruka said with a smile

Which in turn made Sasuke reply with battle intent "Nozomu tokoro da!(Just like what I want!)"

Naruto just smiled and said as he used shunshin in the middle of the training ground "Alright! Come at me! Sasuke!"

"You're on!" Sasuke directly used shunshin to attack Naruto which in Naruto dodges slightly to the right just barely enough to dodge the attack and spun his right foot backwards for enough momentum to make a heavy kick and kicked Sasuke on the stomach

"Ugh!" Sasuke groaned in pain as he was hit in the stomach flying away and he used his feet to slide to the floor as he was flying away to stop himself from flying away.

"Huff... Huff..." Sasuke gasped for air

"Sasuke-chan... If that's all you've got... you won't even be able to touch me, what more beat me..." Naruto taunted Sasuke as he smirked

"Kyahhh! Naruto is so cool!" Girls from the side who are fans of Naruto with Ino as the loudest cheered as they saw Naruto kick Sasuke away

Naruto saw Ino and winked at her,

Where she blushed red and a few girls on the side fainted from excitement murmuring "N-Naruto-sama... w-winked at me..."

Sasuke's fangirls with Sakura as the most noticeable due to her pink hair worriedly looked at Sasuke who was flung away and said "Sasuke-kun..."

Sasuke rushed towards Naruto as he shouted "Focus on me!"(A/N: Yandere much? XD)

"Orya..." Naruto was surprised at Sasuke rushing at him at sound breaking speed but not really so he used kawarimi no jutsu and exchanged places with a log

"You don't need to be that jealous, Sasuke, I look at you too." Naruto teased Sasuke as he looked at him from above a tree branch

"Stop messing around and fight me seriously!" Sasuke red in anger said loudly

"Alright, alright!" Naruto said in response and stopped with his playfulness and rushed towards Sasuke

He kicked Sasuke in the head, which in turn Sasuke dodged downwards and Sasuke used his feet to sweep kick Naruto's foot that was on the ground but Naruto saw that and he jumped up backward whereas Sasuke threw shurikens at Naruto and smirked

"This bastard..." Naruto commented as he saw Sasuke threw Shuriken at a taijutsu match and made handseals and put a small amount of chakra into his ninjutsu "Fuuton: Daitoppa"

Naruto's ninjutsu created a tunnel of wind deflecting Sasuke's Shuriken and making air enough to make Sasuke try to hold onto the ground.

As Sasuke was trying to maintain his balance Naruto deactivated his ninjutsu but as the gust of wind tunnel was still far away from Sasuke so even if he deactivated the air tunnel isn't deactivated immediately

He used shunshin no jutsu to rush towards Sasuke and when the tunnel of wind was about to be over he jumped onto Sasuke from above and sat on his back making Sasuke face the floor

"Arrghh! Ninjutsu is not fair! This is a taijutsu match!" Sasuke said with grievance

"You're one to talk... you used shurikens" Naruto snorted
