Chapter 26: chapter 23
chapter 23~ part 1, Konohamaru and the team
Naruto who stood alone in the forest of Death, started walking slowly on foot, he didn't have to do anything in the village till evening,
He walked into the forest, seeing all the towering trees, these trees were abnormally big, legends about them were that these trees were created by the first Hokage, and these trees always remain green no matter the season, he marveled at the beauty of these trees, the temperature was in the forest was normal in the summer,
The beasts around in the forest were also big like these trees, the beast in the forest had possess chakra, which was the reason that these beasts had a bigger size than normal beasts, but they didn't dare to come near Naruto, they could feel the danger coming out of him, even if naruto had completely masked the presence of Kurama inside him, but the beast had their incents that help them survive them, and this time no different, their instinct told them that stay away from him, most of the beast in the forest were ganin level and some of them had chunin level chakra in them,
Naruto walked leisurely in the forest not caring about the beast or anything,
The seal in Naruto had been completely opened, in the sealed space there were bars and a lock was present before that hold the Kurama's chakra and him, but now there was no lock and no bars, it was completely open, there was just a big hall without any bars or anything,
Naruto didn't receive the key from the Jiraiya, this was a reward he get from the system after changing the plot to some extent, and after getting the key naruto opened the seal and do some modifications to it, so now there were no bars, only a big hallway, naruto, and Kurama had trusted each other, their friendship was so strong, and now in the sealed space there was nothing holding back Kurama's chakra and him, there was a big empty room for Kurama's stay, due to the seal was not present there, the presence of Kurama was felt by everyone if naruto had not completely mask his presence by his perfect chakra control, {A|N~ some things left for the flashback}
Naruto exited the forest, it was already evening and the sun was about to set in a few hours, it was a perfect atmosphere, naruto walked towards a specific place, he had told konohamru to come to the training ground to meet him, the boy was so eager to gain his approval, he wants to prove himself to naruto, naruto thinking about him smiled "let's bull~aham teach that brat something" naruto said to himself
In a specific training ground, waiting for him for one hour, he was so excited he came one hour earlier, he told his only two friends and take them with them, udon and Moegi, one was the girl with orange hair with two pointy buns on her head, and second was the boy with glasses, they both looked at their friend, they never saw him this exited and happy,
Konohamru was waiting for Naruto sitting on a big stone, "why is the time flowing so slowly today, it feels like I am sitting here for hours," konohamru said to himself, he stood from the stone and walked left and right,
And then he saw the figure in the black approaching the training ground, it was Natruo, he entered the ground and looked at konohamru, and then looked at the other friends of konohamru, he instantly recognize, they were always with konohamru.
"You are late big brother," he shouted at him,
"No silly, you are earlier, I am on time," Naruto said, ruffling his hair, konohamru pouted and didn't say anything, "you spoiled child," Naruto thought to himself,
Naruto looked at him and than Udon and Moegi, naruto knew if want to control Konoha he needed some trusted people, that he could trust them, and what's the better option than the younger generation, give them what they wanted and they will follow you wholeheartedly, in this situation there was no chance of betrayal
Naruto remembers how hiruzen sarutobi manipulated him from his childhood, he restricted everyone to take care of him, all alone in this world, kick out of the orphanage at a small age, when he was at his lowest he approached him, give Naruto some hope, and became his only hope, hiruzen cast a cage around him, only he can enter it, this is why naruto follow him wholeheartedly, after all, hiruzen was the best manipulator, not like his friend Danzo, who put a curse seal on the tongue of his comrades and erase their emotions, once the curse seal lifted the person will be the one who tried to kill him first. But in Hiruzen's case, it was different, there was no chance of betrayal, he engraved the "will of fire" on Naruto so much.
Naruto looked at Konohamaru and spoke, "are your friend also be going to train with you,"
Konohamru looked at udon and Moegi, they were also excited to be trained by him, they were freshly graduated genin, and in the academy, only three jutsus were taught, and some small training, they were going to assign to some random chunin, wasting there potential, that's why naruto hate the system of Konoha.
Konohamru nodded to him, "Big brother can you train them with me, they all are my friends, I can not leave them behind," he speak to him,
Naruto looked at him and then the other two, their eyes full of hope, on the papers naruto was still a ganin, but in power level, he was an S rank, so he can't be assigned to the team of his own, but soon it will going to change, he will make these three the best pillar of konoha for him, the potential of konohamru and these kids are not less than any genius, their potential was suppressed by the village system, after all, who wants to train someone powerful if they threaten their positions in the village.
this was the reason only a few people stand amongst these political villages on their own, in the villages people care so much about position and politics, not own their growth, in naruto's eyes these were fools, what will you do about your political status when a single person can erase your whole village with a single jutsu. 'Patathic fools' Naruto thinks to himself, 'you have chakra in your body, use it, it has infinite potential, but they didn't even scratch the surface of it,' naruto was still in a daze,
"Big brother what are you thinking," Konohamru's voice awake him from his thinking,
Naruto looked at the two children "Come here, he spoke to them.
