Let us begin
*****************************
Year 1981
Walking through the dark nights of a normal Surry neighborhood in Little Washington, England, was a man.
The man is thin and very old with silver hair and a long beard long enough that he could easily have clipped them into his belt. He has blue eyes shining with a bright light from beneath the half-moon-shaped glass glasses that he wore sitting on a long nose, hooked so much that it looked as if this nose was broken in at least two places. He wears a long, striking purple robe with gold stars and wears buckled boots.
As he walked, he took out an instrument from his clothes; more specifically a wooden stick. The man, with a movement of his hand, used the wooden stick and began to turn off the lights of the lamps, leaving the street without light.
Suddenly, a cat appeared in front of the old man.
-"I should have imagined that he would be here..." -The old man spoke, while he looked at the cat. -"Professor McGonagall"-
The cat underwent a strange transformation, turning into a woman.
She is a woman who can be described as a rather stern looking woman with glasses, with black hair tied in a tight knot at the back of her head. He wears a bright emerald robe.
-"Good evening, Professor Dumbledore"-
The woman, now known as Professor McGonagall, spoke.
Then the two began to walk.
-"Are the rumors true, Albus?"-
Professor McGonagall asked.
-"I'm afraid so, Professor"- answered the now familiar Albus. -"The good and the bad"-
-"And the boy?"-
Professor McGonagall asked, looking at Albus seriously.
-"Hagrid has gone for him"-
-"Do you think it's wise to trust Hagrid with something as important as this?"-
McGonagall asked suspiciously.
Albus smiled. -"Ah, Professor... I would trust Hagrid with my own life"-
His talk was interrupted by the arrival of a person. That person was flying on a motorcycle, and then landed it in the middle of the street.
The person took off the goggles he was wearing. -"Professor Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall"-
That person quickly greeted the Teachers.
A gigantic man appeared in the doorway. His face was practically hidden by a long tangle of hair and a wild beard, but you could see his eyes, shining like black beetles, under all that fur.
The man got off the motorcycle.
-"Didn't you have any problems, Hagrid?"-
Albus asked, curious to know if his friend didn't put his life in danger.
-"No sir"-
The now familiar Hagrid shook his head.
Hagrid walked towards where the teachers were, while he uncovered the face of a baby that he had in his arms.
-"He fell asleep when we were flying over Bristol..."-Hagrid explained. -"Try not to wake him up"-
Hagrid handed the baby to Albus, delicately.
They began walking towards a house.
-"Albus, do you think it's safe to leave him with these people?" - Professor McGonagall asked unsurely. -"I've watched them all day. They are the worst Muggles you can imagine"-
-"They are... The only family he has left"-
Albus said; but inside he was also unsure about this.
Minerva then looked at the baby. -"This child will be famous! There will be no child in our world who does not know his name"-
-"Exactly!..."- Albus nodded in agreement. -"And it is better for him to grow up away from all this"-Then I look at the boy. -"Until I'm ready"-
Albus placed the child at the door of a house. Hagrid cried as he watched the little baby being placed at the door.
Albus looked at Hagrid. -"Don't worry, Hagrid. It's not goodbye; remember"-
Hagrid wiped away his tears. -"Yeah"-
Albus left a letter on the sleeping boy. -"Good luck, Harry Potter"-
Then the three people quickly left the place.
But if they had stayed a little longer, they would have seen something that would be impossible for them.
-"AAAAHHHHH-!"-
A scream was heard in the skies, and then something, or someone, crashed into the street. The falling body caused it to explode like a water bubble, leaving a puddle in the middle of the street.
Then the water began to gather and rise, to form a person.
That person is none other than the Yōsokage of Yōsogakure No Sato, Naruto Uzumaki-Namikaze.
-"May the Supreme God bless the [Mizu Mizu No Mi]..."-
Naruto murmured gratefully at having copied the power of the Akuma No Mi type Lodge.
Although he might not have received any damage in the fall, it was still annoying to Naruto.
-"Good"- Naruto looked around. -"Where am I now?"-
Seeing the normal houses surrounding him, he quickly knew that he is in a normal neighborhood.
-"It seems I'm still in the human world"- Naruto said, and then began to think. -"How strange; I was sure I traveled between dimensions"-
Naruto was planning to use his [Rinne-Sharingan] to travel to the Asgard Dimension and talk to a friend of his; but it seems that I fail.
Naruto's thoughts were interrupted by a baby crying.
Naruto at first thought that he is a baby from one of the houses, but upon hearing that he seemed to come from closer, he went to inspect. When he arrived at a particular house, he could see a baby in a basket, in front of the door of the house.
Naruto got angry for a moment. -(Who would be so careless to leave a baby on this dark night?)-
He quickly grabbed the baby in his arms, ignoring the letter that was in the basket.
-"Now, now, now"- Naruto tried to calm the boy down. -"I'm here"-
Which seemed to work, since the baby stopped crying and little by little began to fall asleep.
When he fell asleep, Naruto took the opportunity to see him better, and the first thing that caught his attention was the lightning-shaped scar on his forehead.
Naruto was thinking how a baby got that particular scar.
Then he thought maybe someone did it to him.
That last thought made him very angry.
But there was something about the scar that bothered Naruto, and that was the dark energy it emanated, an energy very familiar to him. Something that reminds him of the Curse Mark that Orochimaru put on Sasuke.
Naruto, wanting to see more clearly, activated his [Byakugan], causing his eyes to turn silver.
When Naruto saw the baby with his [Byakugan] on him, he could see two different energies.
One is a silver energy with blue touches and another, which was smaller and was on his forehead, is a dark energy.
Naruto was able to recognize that the silver energy with blue touches was magical energy. But he didn't recognize the dark energy.
-(What is this?)-
He couldn't recognize it, or at least it was an energy unknown to him.
-
-
-- Kurama answered seriously. --
He wants to free this child from that dark soul.
Naruto wasted no time and saved the soul in a scroll. -(Later I will give it to Shinigami-chan)-
After all she is the Goddess of Death, Naruto knew that she will know what to do with the soul.
Naruto didn't finish because he disappeared in a small explosion of light.
Naruto blinked as the light surrounding him disappeared, and then saw a very familiar scene for him.
Gaia, seeing Naruto with the baby in her arms, quickly approached with concern.
-"It's okay!"-Gaia said with relief, as she looked at the baby in Naruto's arms. -"Excellent"-
-"Hum"- Naruto looked at the situation with confusion. -"What's going on?"-
-"You see, Naruto"-God began his explanation. -"That baby you brought is a very special person"-
Naruto looked at her blankly. -"Hey?"-
Naruto was surprised by that. -"B-But how. I don't think I'm capable of doing that"-
Maybe he could travel between dimensions of the same world or universe, but not another world.
-"Yes. Because of my mistake, you are now able to travel between worlds and universes"-
-"I see"- Naruto looked at him uncertainly. -"Is it okay that I have a skill like this?"-
-"A wizard?"- Naruto asked. -"That explains the magical energy he possesses"-
God nodded. -"Yes. Harry comes from a world where there is magic"-
-"And one of his victims were Harry's parents"-
Naruto then looked sadly at Harry.
-"Huh?"- Naruto was confused. -"How is he arrested?"-
-"That will make Shinigami very angry..."-
Gaia muttered that to herself.
-"Is it possible that he comes back?"-
Naruto asked curious if it was possible for that dangerous wizard to come back to life.
-"Yes"- God responded with a sigh. -"In the near future he maybe he will be able to revive"-
Gaia smiled. -"But if that happens, Harry will be there to stop him"-
Naruto looked confused upon hearing that, and then God spoke.
-"I would like to adopt him..."-
The Gods looked at him calmly, as if they were not surprised by what he said.
And that's why Naruto decided to help Harry like a father.
-"I have no problem"- God said calmly. -"But since Gaia oversees that world, she must decide"-
Naruto then looked at Gaia, who was thinking.
-"Well, I think that would be all"- God said with a smile. -"You can go now Naruto"-
Naruto smiled too. -"Yes. I want the girls to meet the new member of the family"-
Then God created a portal for Naruto to return to his house.
Gaia smiled in agreement. -"It's true..."-
And from that day, the story of Harry James Potter-Uzumaki, The Supreme Wizard, began.
