Konohagakure No Sato :
Konoha Hospital :
After a full body check-up , Naruto found himself again in the Hospital Dean's Office . sitting opposite the Doctor , Naruto receives a glass of water and some pills .
" Here these too "
" ...um "
" Now drink it in a gulp "
" ..*gulp*gulp*"
" Naruto "
" Yes ....sir...!"
" i told you to take rests between those Trainings , RIGHT ..!!"
" .. "
" Your Body and Mind are fatugued , especially your Mind , it's stressed "
" .."
" Take a proper rest for tomorrow , no training "
" ...yes "
Seeing Naruto getting scolded by the elderly Doctor , The Hokage also speaks
" alright, Naruto you wait outside "
" Oh "
Seeing Naruto going out of the office , The Hokage sighs deeply and asks The dean worriedly
" So it's nothing serious right "
"...for now , not that much but "
" but ....what ?"
" He is a Jinchuriki , you know "
" So ?"
" He can't be stressed like this , Definitely a serious problem for a Jinchuriki "
" Are you saying , he may lose control ...!! "
" ...The chances are higher "
" Then what should we do "
" Depends on his habits and lifestyle ....maybe try meditation or something "
" ..."
" Every Shinobi deals with stress their own way ....tobacco , Liquor , Peepin--"
" Enough... i get it "
The Hokage massages his head while thinking about those times . The Time when he taught his 3 Students . But We can't use the same methods with Naruto , especially since he is a 'Jinchuriki'
Seeing Hokage's troubled expression , The Dean decides to help him
" .....Well , there are some sleeping pills here , since his body is recovering by sleeping , Maybe Deep sleep will work "
"....Thanks , Hayato "
" No problem.....everythings for the village "
" *haaaa*....yeah , then I will leave "
The Hokage walks out of the Office with a hunched back and approaches Naruto
" let's go , Naruto "
" finally , I am telling you Grandpa , it's nothing serious "
" hmm "
" look , I feel fine , even Good "
" hmm "
The Hokage and Naruto slowly walk back to the Uzumaki apartment . While Walking back both The Hokage decided to advice his Grandson
" Naruto "
" hmm "
" I know you want to be Hokage "
" .."
" But there is no need to rush , Don't burn yourself out "
".."
" Take your time and enjoy your time and the Academy days "
".."
" you listening "
" hmm "
" Do you like something "
" like??"
" hobby or anything "
" ? paint?or not ? "
" *sigh* , How about this "
" yeah??"
" Find a hobby or anything you like to do , only for your enjoyment "
" ...But-"
" Its not a waste of time "
The Hokage remembered his old days and also the countless shinobi's thought process in these kinds of matters . Shinobi with drive and purpose , They all soon came to this impasse .
( Naruto has been going non-stop for the last 10 months .... I really realllyy overlooked it )
The Hokage fumbles his pocket and takes out a pill bottle .
" Here "
" this is ??"
" it's sleeping pill , the doctor gave "
" sleeping ..pill"
" 1 for today before going to bed , or any other time when you feel necessary "
" Ok "
Seeing The Uzumaki apartment approaching , The Hokage takes a deep breath
" Alright , rest for tomorrow , no need to attend academy "
" um "
" No Training "
"..."
" And think about some Hobby or any enjoyment things "
".."
" Take care , hmmm , now go"
" hmm , Good night "
" hmm "
Naruto heads inside his apartment and puts the bag aside , sitting down he looks at the time
7:33 Pm
Naruto already ate Dinner at the Hospital , The Nutrition meal that he got while waiting outside . Hearing the Doctor's Advise , Naruto soon fell into confusion
( ....Was it really just GREAT SAGE SKILL's fault )
Naruto heads to the bathroom and Baths in hot-water in this winter .
( I never felt myself burning out )
While Taking a dip in his Bathtub , Naruto slowly collects his thoughts
" ehh"
Naruto suddenly remembered a skill that he alsmost overlooked
============================
Unique skill ( Passive ) - Inner Strength
Inner Strength - The mental and emotional resilience that allows One to persevere through difficulties , It is not Physical but Mental fortitude forged through Loneliness and Self-reliance .
It allows you to manage emotions, stay focused on goals despite setbacks to Find ways to your success.
==================================
( Was this is the reason that I kept going without any problems )
Naruto only thought of this skill as some Genjutsu Resistence , Focus and maybe a skill that helps in learning things regardless of the failures.
But Looking back , how many people can go like a robot regardless of any problems .
( Without Great Sage , How much longer would i Have gone .....in this way )
Getting out of his bathtub , Naruto dries himself down and brushes his teeth , Looking at the mirror's reflection , naruto's thoughts wonder again
( ...Just what is this system doing to me )
Naruto heads back to the kitchen and takes the sleeping pill . Drinking water he heads to his Bed and lays down while thinking.
( but Grandpa , you don't know about Pain , Obito , Madara , Black zetsu and Kaguya )
Remembering the Anime and now finding himself in the centre of it because of his identity with no escape .
JINCHURIKI
( ...What a curse )
Naruto's thoughts gets muddled and he soon drifts to sleep . The ANBU stationed keep the watch and do their duties .
The Hokage looks at sleeping Naruto through his crystal Ball and remembered his recent conversations with his aids.
---------------------------
" Hokage-sama"
" what is it , Shikaku "
" Naruto is becoming a proper Shinobi "
" hoho That's right "
" He is really a qualified Shinobi "
" hoho, That's right "
" He is also very intelligent "
" hm??"
" He will soon find out "
" about his identity "
".."
" We don't plan to reveal anything "
" But you should know , how Naruto will react wilh this information of information "
"... Dismissed"
" ...understood "
" ....yes "
-----------------------------
When the Hokage found Naruto modifying and creating new jutsu , what he saw was not the potential of a genius but
( A chance )
In the hundreds of jutsu in Village Library , it's not like there is no similar jutsu's like the ones Naruto came up with . Except for The Soot Cloud Jutsu , Konoha has all veriations of the other jutsus .
But The Hokage manipulated things from behind , and all this work was done , for a single reason and that was to get Naruto , A Basic Archive Library Card .
( I have sown the seed in Naruto )
The Archives will not give Naruto any new jutsu , But will provide him with tons of information . And That Information will also include
THE JINCHURIKI
( Now to wait for this seed to sprout )
The Hokage providing some jutsu's and praising the kid , testing his attitude for the benefit of the village and all the other causes and probe's were just a smokescreen for the Real Plan .
( with the way Naruto is now , He is prepared to know about jinchuriki and his heritage ......But I am not )
And That is the reason that The Hokage decided to let Naruto keep initiative in this matter.
( it will take 1-2 year for his identity to be revealed , Now I just need to push him towards the Archive Library , some things here and there ......as long as his jinchuriki identity gets revealed first )
The Hokage feared the disappointed eyes of his grandson and Minato's legacy , That's why he took this roundabout way to tell these matters.
Once the Jinchuriki's matter in unearthed , He can slowly manipulate the matter for village's benefit and also reassure Naruto .
( as long as I don't reveal it first .....it was minato's decision to make him Jinchuriki , not mine ...not my fault , it's not my fault )
Seeing Naruto sleeping peacefully , The Hokage closes the crystal Ball guiltily . Looking up Hokage saw today's paperwork that got delayed and the silent office with no one to care for him.
( .....Biwako oh my wife , just when can we meet again )
The Hokage pulls an all-nighter again on another one of those lonely nights in the cursed office .
=====================================
Land Of Bamboo :
Walking inside the Inn , A young Blonde women came face to face with some shinobi
" A fatty , a pineapple and a Blonde ...what is it "
" Tsunade Sama , Here please "
Saying their piece , The Nara bows on one knee and pushes a scroll towards Senju Tsunade , The Granddaughter of The First Hokage , The Slug Sage and the Medical Saint .
" I told you guys , I am not interested in the village affairs "
Tsunade walks past the Nara and heads back to her room and behind , her assistent Shizune follows with pig in hand , but just before Tsunade can leave for her room , she heard the Nara's voice
" precisely "
" ....huh??"
" Once you read this scroll , we and the village will not bother you anymore "
"...you are saying like you both are different "
" ....here Tsunade Sama "
Seeing their resolute attitude of Shinobi , Tsunade gets puzzeled and reaches out to takes the damn scroll
" Let's see , what you got "
Tsunade remembers these persistent people , no matter where she goes they follow , with a single request to take the scroll and read it . Tsunade is also curious about the happenings in the village and the contents of the scroll.
But her curiosity soon turned into astonishment
"....WHAt THE HELLL...!!! Just wHAT ARE THESE CLANS DOIng "
==================================
Land Of Rivers :
In a Large public Bathhouse , One can see an white haired Tall man peeping through the roof at the female's section .
But before He can enjoy his research more
" *WOOF* WOOFFFFFF* "
" There he is "
" good jib Koko "
"*woof*woof*
Jiraiya jumps down from the roof with a well practiced manner and looked towards the intruders
" An Inuzuka , Hyuga and ...oh there it is .....the Aburame , The village's call ??"
Jiraiya slowly head toward the Standard Ninja squad , and greets them
" yo "
" Jiraiya sama "
" Finally found you "
" .....the toad sage"
Jiraiya notices their expression and asks in puzzlement
" why didn't you contact me like the usual way "
" the usual ??"
" with toads you know , don't the ol-The Hokage know "
Hearing the Hokage's name mentioning , all the three shinobi looked at each other , At this The Aburame took a step forward and present a scroll .
" ...please , Jiraiya Sama"
" huh , what's this "
" .....Something that only you should know "
" Me ? "
" Yes , please "
Hearing the seriousness in the voice of the Aburame , Jiraiya took the scroll and decided to read it first , and soon he was also shocked
" ...just whAt IS THIS ...!! All THE CLANS....even SOME JONIns...!!!! "
