What's Beyond (English version)

It had been three more days since Naruto had to give his mission report and today the rookie teams, minus Sasuke and the hospitalized ones, were gathered in a training field. 

Naruto was next to Shikamaru watching the clouds, Ino was chatting with Tenten and Hinata. Lee was doing squats and Shino was looking at some insects. Sakura was silent. She knew that this meeting was to talk about the mission. But no one wanted to talk or no one had brought up the subject.

-Naruto… thank you for bringing Sasuke-kun…- Sakura 

-No, I didn't- 

-Naruto, what do you mean, I know that he is in custody for trying to escape, but surely soon we will be a team again...-

-That's why I say it Sakura- Everyone was surprised that he didn't put the chan at the end of the name, that meant that Naruto was serious -I didn't bring our teammate, I brought back the traitor-

With that sentence the clearing remained silent, none of those present expected Naruto to express himself in that way. 

-Naruto I know that Sasuke-kun was wrong, but it's Orochimaru's fault, he forced Sasuke….-

"Lie," Naruto shouted, silencing Sakura. "Orochimaru didn't force Sasuke to do anything, he wasn't there when they took him, he didn't kidnap him, he left of his own free will."

-But... but... he was being manipulated, if he tempted him-

-Exactly he was tempted, but it was Sasuke's fault for letting himself be carried away by that temptation, Kakashi sensei could have talked about it with the old Hokage when he was alive. Go to Yamanaka for a psychology service. By hell he could have even come to talk to us. But he didn't do it, I prefer to leave and fall into temptation-

-But he is our teammate-

-The same teammate who tried to kill me-

-How are you so sure? Hey-

-For this- Thus taking off the blue shirt he had on, the day Jiraya got him the clothes he got him several of the same set. You could see the scar on his chest. 

Everyone in the clearing remained silent and scared, never expecting that Sasuke had actually tried to kill Naruto. The most affected was Sakura, until now she refused to see that Sasuke had betrayed the village of his own free will.

-But…but…-

-Sakura, enough, Naruto is right, Sasuke became a traitor-

Sakura could only look at Ino with tears in her eyes, she never expected that she would be the one to condemn Sasuke to a traitor. 

-This…-

"What did you expect from me to support him?" The Yamanaka would ask seriously. "Sakura, as much as I liked Sasuke, I can't see it any other way."

-How would you like it-

-Sakura, do you really think that he would continue pursuing the person responsible for Choji being hospitalized and not only him, but the rest of the recovery team as well. They were all at death's door when they arrived at the hospital. The only reason they survived was because we had Tsunade-sama-

-But it wasn't Sasuke's fault, Orochimaru manipulated him, he used his weakness against him, he just let himself go. We can forgive him, make him redeem himself…-

-Sakura...SHUT UP- Naruto would yell at her, already tired of his teammate's attitude. 

-But, Naruto-

-But nothing, you know that this is a temptation- he would express to deconcentrate chakra in his abdomen and the seal of the eight trigrams would come out. 

-Naruto What is that seal? I use them to store my weapons, but I have never seen one so complex - I would say in amazement Tenten for such a complex seal 

-Thanks for asking. Tell me you know about the Kyubi attack 13 years ago-

-That…e…the Yondaime Ho..oka…ge murdered the fox- Hinata would express it with her typical stutter. 

-Mistake, the bijuus cannot be killed, they are chakra with consciousness, if the Yondaime had really killed him, he would have already reappeared in the world-

-So what did you do with him?- Ino

-Ino sealed it, she sealed it in a newborn baby that day-

The clearing became silent again, everyone already understood where Naruto was going. 

-Naruto… you-

-Yes Shikamaru, I am Zorro's container…-

-But where are you going with all this Naruto?- Ino

-That's what I was saying, the younger generation didn't know the fact that I possess the fox, but the older generation did. Because of that I was mistreated. They may never have hit me or tried to abuse me, but they did something much worse-

-What could be worse?- 

-They denied my existence Lee, maybe they never physically hit me, but they did it in other ways, denying my existence, denying the fact that I was among them, they denied me, my name... my soul. They denied the fact that I…-

…

-And because of that for a while I hated the village-

That made everyone open their eyes, they never expected those words to come out of Naruto's mouth. 

-For a time I wanted to destroy the village and force it to die so that it would be forgotten. Force the world to forget the village of Konoha and that in the future no one will even remember that it existed-

Those words filled everyone with fear, the image they had of Naruto was dissolving with those words. Where is the happy, joking boy they knew? 

-Due to that feeling that the Kyubi had at the time, he tempted me to do it, at that time I didn't know that I had the Kyubi sealed inside me, but he whispered to me to do it, to make them pay for all the pain I was going through. , to destroy the village and not look back-

…

-What stopped you?- 

-It was the Sandaime, he stopped me in the simplest, but most effective way he had-

-Which?-

-Recognizing myself, recognizing that I existed and being willing to be there for me. Because of him and a promise I made him is that I did not destroy the village-

…

-Do you want to know which one it was?-

Everyone just nodded. 

-That would give the younger generation a chance-

-That is us- Shikamaru 

-Not only you, but I would give all those who were not adults the opportunity to show that they were worth it, that they were different. Do you know what conclusion I came to?

…

-That the younger generation does not deserve my hatred, they do not deserve that I hurt them. No son has to pay for the sins of the father.

That once again destroyed the image that everyone had of Naruto, he was not the childish and immature Naruto. Was this a new facet of Naruto or was he always like this but they never had the opportunity to really know him?

-That's why I want to become Hokage. So that no child is abandoned like I was. So that no child suffers like I suffered and so that no child within the village of Konohagakure no Sato loses hope like I once did- 

They already had their challenge, this was the real Naruto, only none of them knew him. 

Ino, Tenten and Hinata looked at Naruto in another way, they could no longer see a child in front of them. In their eyes, Naruto was much more mature than them and perhaps that was why he acted so immature, trying to recover his childhood that was taken from him.

Lee could only cry tears at Naruto's words, recognizing the incredible willpower he possessed, he was sure that not even the most powerful Hokage could withstand such torture.

Shino was just silent, analyzing Naruto's words and thus increasing his respect for the red-haired boy in front of him.

Shikamaru could only think in silence about the words his father said to him that day. 

Flash Back - 5 years ago 

-And how did it go at Shika Academy?- Yoshino Nara, the matriarch of the Nara Clan, would ask.

-*Tsk* It was a pain, first Ino and a girl named Sakura kept shouting about who was prettier to be Sasuke Uchiha's girlfriend? Afterwards I can't sleep because the sensei woke me up all the time and as if that weren't enough there was a boy, named Naruto, I think, who kept shouting that he was going to be Hokage one day-

-I wouldn't take it so lightly Shikamaru- The one who would speak this time was Shikaku Nara, Shikamaru's father and patriarch of the Nara clan.

"Oh come on, you don't really think the boy is going to become Hokage... Do you?"

-Whether he is going to do it or not, I don't have the answer to that, but I know the boy, not personally but the boy has great potential and if he can exploit it one day, we could be facing the greatest Hokage of our village, even more than the Shodaime- The Nara patriarch would seriously end 

Both Yoshino and Shikamaru remained silent, the fact that those words came from their father and husband respectively left them stunned. If Shikaku Nara was recognized for something apart from being a strategic genius, it was for his ability to recognize potential in people. 

-So I would try to become friends with the boy Shikamaru and thus you would have the favor of a Hokage in the future- the Nara patriarch would say jokingly to lighten the atmosphere a little. 

-You know something old-

"What?" I would ask with a raised eyebrow. 

-If Naruto becomes Hokage, I myself will become his personal advisor and right-hand man. What are you saying?-

…

Hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha 

Fin Flash Back 

Shikamaru finally realized that his father didn't just say those words for the sake of saying them, he saw the same potential that his father saw himself, here and now. 

-*Tsk* Shitty old man, now I will most likely have to be this airhead's main advisor in the future. what a bummer-

In the end Sakura didn't recognize her teammate. Where is he to console her and tell her that she was the prettiest. To tell him that everything would be okay. She wanted it right now 

-You're not Naruto... Naruto wouldn't talk like that, he wouldn't act like that, he wouldn't say those things about the village. I want to have it back because you're not the-

-Yes I am, I'm just the part you never wanted to see Sakura-

-Lie, lie, lie Naruto would forgive Sasuke and understand that it was Orochimaru who controlled him-

-Sakura, answer the following question. If by some chance the Kyubi will take control over my body and stab you in your heart and you survived, would you forgive me?

Sakura could only start crying. Why was this happening? Why was Naruto against Sasuke? Why didn't anyone understand that he was manipulated? Why was Naruto asking him such difficult questions?

At this moment Sakura could only do one thing and that was run home and go into her room to cry and vent all this pain she was feeling. 

*Sigh* Naruto could only sigh, he didn't want to treat Sakura like that, but it was necessary, so that she would understand why she couldn't forgive Sasuke. 

-Don't you think you were a little harsh Naruto?-

-I really don't know Ino, I just hope not and that this helps Sakura wake up and open her eyes, if she doesn't do it now, maybe she never would or when she does it will be too late-

_ At the same time elsewhere _

The Konohagakure shinobi trial room was a room with three long U-shaped tables. In the middle sits the accused surrounded by two Anbus

Currently in the room there are 

Koharu Utatane

Homura Mitokado

Danzo Shimura

council of elders 

Hiashi Hyuga 

Shikaku Nara

Shibi Aburame

Tsume Inuzuka

Choza Akimichi

Inoichi Yamanaka

Clan Council 

Y Tsunade Senju la Hokage

-Sasuke Uchiha, genin of Konohagakure no Sato, registration number 012587. Today we are gathered here to judge you for the following crimes. High treason, deserting the village, not reporting the fact that we had spies within the village, trying to ally with Orochimaru of the Sannin and as a last assassination attempt against a fellow shinobi- Tsunade 

…

-How do you declare yourself?-

…

…

…

Seeing that the boy did not answer, Tsunade gave a signal to make Sasuke speak. 

So Anbu hit him on the head. 

-The Hokage is talking to you and when he asks you something you answer-

Sasuke just looked at Anbu with hatred.

-I plead innocent-

-How dare you, you fucking brat...-

-Tsume-

-I'm sorry Hokage-sama, I'm a little emotional because my son is still hospitalized-

-Your emotions are understandable Tsume, but please control them- 

-Si Hokage-sama-

-Okay, now Sasuke Uchiha, with what evidence do you declare your innocence?-

-I don't need any proof, I am innocent because everything I did was for the greater good-

Now that made even Danzo raise an eyebrow.

-And could you explain to us what was the greater good for which you committed all those crimes? Tsunade would say sarcastically. 

-To gain power and kill Itachi-

-Can?-

-If I can- He would say so sure of himself 

…

…

…

-Are you an idiot? Just for power are you willing to sacrifice and almost murder a fellow shinobi.

-Yes, is it that they don't understand it? I need the power to avenge my clan, to do justice to all those innocent people that the murderer did. What do I care if he stepped on one or another insect along the way? Everything will be for a greater good-

Everyone was looking directly at Sasuke, one or another insect

Tsunade had to take a few breaths, she was about to kill the brat if she didn't control herself. 

-Then why escape?-

-Huh?-

-I ask again, why escape? We are in the strongest shinobi village, where there are many shinobi who can match Orochimaru, if not surpass him. But even with all that you escaped, I don't believe it. That wasn't the reason. I want you to tell me the truth of your own free will or I will have Inoichi search your head for the truth-

…

…

…

-F.. p….. he m. it….. sup...-

-I ask you to please say it louder-

-It was because he was surpassing me, it was because he was overshadowing me, it was because he is stronger than me. Happy? -

…

-Who is he?- The one who spoke this time was Shikaku, he already had an idea of ​​who "He" is.

-Naruto, Naruto, damn Naruto, who dared to challenge me and not only that but surpass me. To me the avenger, the last Uchiha, the genius, but that damn loser dared to do it, first against Zabuza, he was the one who devised the plan to make Kakashi escape from Zabuza's technique, then he defeated the Anbu that accompanied Zabuza , defeats the red-haired girl who almost killed me in the invasion and as if that were not enough, he dared to make Itachi see him as a greater rival than me-

-Do you hate him?- This time it was Tsume who asked. 

-YEAH!!! I hate him just like I hate Itachi, that's why I tried to kill him, so that he wouldn't surpass me anymore-

Sasuke finished with the greatest venom he could release. 

…

-Take out Uchiha while we deliberate-

So the two Anbus escorted Sasuke out of the room. 

-I say that we declare him guilty- the first to speak out was Tsume 

-I'm the same, but someone from my clan should also do a Psychological checkup- Inoichi 

-I also say guilty- Shikaku and thus each clan head declared the Uchiha guilty 

Koharu and Homura didn't like where this was going, if everyone found the Uchiha guilty they could execute him. 

-Then what should be the Uchiha's punishment?- Danzo asked seriously. 

-¡¡¡Danzo!!!-

-Don't be surprised Koharu, it is true that the Uchiha boy has potential, but he is a walking bomb, which at any moment can explode against us. I almost killed the Village Jinchuriki and I remind you that right now we need all the strength we can have, but because of the boy we almost lost our best deterrent-

-But-

-But nothing about Homura, it is true that we have to take care of the future of the Uchiha clan, but it is more important to take care of the future of the town as a whole. He almost murdered the Jinchuriki. Why? Because of some stupid jealousy I felt towards the growth of a fellow shinobi, instead of taking it as a challenge to super, I preferred to kill him before he became stronger. As the boy put it very well when he gave his mission report, he only survived because he had the Kyubi inside-

…

…

…

-What will happen the next time someone surpasses him and is a Konoha shinobi? Will he also try to murder him? What if one of those who surpasses it is a clan heir? I'm not going to jeopardize the future of the village just because of a child. 

…

…

…

Tsunade just crossed her hands in front of her face seriously, thinking about Danzo's words, even though she doesn't like the old war hawk, she was right, she couldn't and didn't want to jeopardize the future of the village just for the boy.

-Anbus bring Uchiha Sasuke-

Thus, obeying the Hokage, the two Anbu made the Uchiha enter the room again. 

-Sasuke Uchiha, genin of Konohagakure no Sato. You have been found guilty of all the crimes and normally you would be executed for those crimes, but due to being the last living Uchiha within Konoha you will be given another punishment. Your chakra will be sealed-

-STOP WAIT YOU CAN'T DO THAT- the Uchiha would shout in fear.

-I can and I do brat, I am your Hokage, apart from that you will be imprisoned for a year in the Anbu prison, where you will be forced to take psychological sessions. You will be prohibited from joining the shinobi system again. 

-No, they can't do this-

-Anbus take him away-

Wait... no... I'll have my revenge... I'll destroy this village too... I'll take my revenge

Thus Sasuke was dragged to the Anbu prison 

-Tsunade…-

-I am Hokage-sama for you Homura, remember it well if you do not want to accompany the Uchiha in his confinement-

-Hokage-sama, don't you think it's a very excessive punishment?-

-No, now everyone out-

So almost everyone left the room. 

-I remember telling everyone to leave. Danzo-

-Yes, despite my age I listen very well Tsunade-

-Then why are you still here?-

-To give you this and now I'm leaving-

Giving Tsunade a letter with the Fire Daimyo's seal 

Tsunade started to read it, but she didn't know because she had a bad feeling. 

_ Midnight Hokage office _ 

Inside the Hokage office were Tsunade, Jiraya y Shizune, the three were quiet and very serious, waiting for Naruto, who was called by a toad summon 

That silence was broken when the door was heard opening and closing. Naruto had already arrived. 

-I'm here Ero-sennin, don't you think it's a little late, I was already… What's wrong? Why those faces? -

-Naruto sit down we have to talk-

-Well….-

Naruto obeyed and sat in one of the chairs and stared at Tsunade, who was speaking to him. 

-Today we had the trial of Sasuke Uchiha, he was found guilty and is receiving his appropriate punishment-

*Sigh* Naruto could only sigh sadly, deep down he wanted... to get his friend back, but he sees that he no longer exists... maybe he never existed.

-Continues-

-Well, I won't go into the details of the trial or the punishment because it is not important for the discussion. But after the discussion was over, the old man Danzo Shimura gave me a letter with the Daimyo's seal.

-And what did the letter have?-

-An order where you were forced to be trained by the old man Shimura-

-But... What's wrong with it? I say it's more training, isn't that good?

-No, not with Danzo- 

-What do you mean by that Ero-sennin?-

-Naruto, Danzo is the founder of Root, a subdivision of Anbu, at first you would believe that that is not bad, right? -

Naruto just nodded. 

-And you would be right, as such it would not be bad at all, the bad thing is the type of training he would have, Danzo's training is about eliminating the feelings of an individual completely, who has no voice or criteria of his own. His only will is to listen to his master's words.

…

…

…

-And…Do I have to receive that type of training?-

-And-

-What if I refuse?-

-You will be killed, so that the Kyubi can be placed in a new child to be trained from scratch-

-Then I have to choose between my free will and my life-

-There is still a third option-

-And would it be?-

-That you would escape from Konoha-

That made Naruto open his eyes wide.

-What are you crazy Baa-chan? That would turn me into a nuclear ninja and... and... and...-

Naruto was hyperventilating by this point, he didn't know what else to say. 

Tsunade just stood up from her seat and went straight to Naruto and hugged him. Giving him the comfort he needed at this moment.

-Now, now, everything will be fine-

"How do you want everything to be okay, if you're trying to get rid of me?" Naruto would say between sobs. 

Tsunade could only cry with Naruto, here was her child crying and she couldn't consciously tell him that everything was okay or that it would be in the near future. 

-I don't want to get rid of you Naruto, but I don't want to see you dead or worse yet, turned into a zombie. Because I love you so much. And because I love you I ask you to go and live free, so that maybe one day in the future we will see each other.

-But I don't want to leave Baa-chan-

-I know it my boy, I know it. But I ask you, please go away and try to be happy. For me, promise Naruto, promise that you will leave, but you will try to be happy wherever you go-

-I promise you Baa-chan- Naruto would cry, he's barely getting a family and he's already losing one. 

Tsunade only managed to hug Naruto tighter, no matter how much she was asking him to leave, she didn't want to let him go, everything was for him to bother her every day that he wants a mission, to come visit her just to find out how. is her day, help her hide her sake, or just call her Baa-chan every day 

Shizune couldn't take it anymore and joined the hug crying, she's about to lose her brother. 

-Tsunade, please you have to put yourself together, we have to get Naruto ready to leave-

-Yes, I'm coming-

-But what about my friends, what do they think of me- 

-That doesn't matter now, what matters most at this moment is your safety and that you are not unprotected. And for that we prepared this scroll that has everything from Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and Kenjutsu styles. And some letters that the Sandaime left you-

-What do they have inside?-

-I couldn't tell you that Naruto, when you read it you will know... I'm going to remove you from the toad contract.

-Wait, what? Because?-

-Reverse summoning. Just as one is able to summon, our summons can invite us, that is why I am going to remove you from the toad's contract. No matter where you run away to, they can always force me to summon you in reverse-

-It's okay Ero-sennin, I understand it-

-But since the toads know about our plan, they sent you more things from which you can learn. Be careful with that Naruto and don't get crazy, these abilities can kill you-

-GOOD-

-I need you to do a Bushin, you need to buy yourself as much time as possible-

So Naruto using his iconic jutsu created a Kage Bushin

Jiraya began to write seals on the Bushin's shoulder and knee area.

-These seals are so that your Bushin can withstand more hits and not fade the first time, but they also cannot withstand the same type of punishment as you. Ready, go home and continue sleeping.

So the clone listened and went home, which he would see for the last time.

-Now we have to go, let's go to the exit-

_ Konoha South Gates _

At the doors we can see Naruto hugging Tsunade and Shizune, not knowing that it may be the last time they see each other.

When they finally let go, Tsunade alone could wish Naruto luck and give Jiraya the space to say goodbye 

-Well... boy this is the end of our trip, although short it was fun, right?-

Naruto could only smile and nod, his trip was very fun. 

-But all good things come to an end... or maybe it's the beginning of something even bigger. Who knows?-

-Certainly the future is a mystery-

-If the biggest mystery, listen boy, in my life I have made a lot of mistakes and in too many different ways, but you know, what is one of those things that I will never regret?

Naruto just shook his head. 

-It was having known you and trained you boy. I want you to know that I am proud of you. Never forget Naruto, you are my greatest pride. Now go before I start crying-

Naruto just hugged Jiraya, to start running and leave as fast as he could. 

_Next morning_

We can see how inside Naruto's apartment the clone was sleeping or pretending to sleep, he was reflecting on his current situation, he became a nuclear ninja and had to abandon everything he had, even his dream just to be able to live freely. 

All that reflection ended when there was a knock on the door, and already knowing who it was, he opened it. 

He was not surprised when two Anbus were the ones who were playing, what did surprise him were the masks did not have paint representing an animal, they only had the initials NE 

-Naruto Uzumaki please come with us-

Just with his tone of voice he already understood what Jiraya was telling him, they sounded emotionless. Not only controlling his emotions, he knew the difference, having lived with Neko-nee chan for too long to notice the differences. 

-Of course- 

Thus with a shunshin towards an entrance in a forest. He didn't recognize where he was. 

-Follow us-

Opening a door leading Naruto through passageways, until he reached what looked like an office door. 

One of the Anbu knocked on the door listening to the ahead 

Thus entering the office. It was a small room, with only a desk and a chair where Danzo was sitting. 

-Welcome young Uzumaki, I hope you are comfortable-

I would express it in such an apathetic way that it seemed like sarcasm without being sarcasm. 

-The truth is that it is not bad, but I would have had at least one plant-

-You're very joking, right?-

-someone has to be, otherwise this world would be boring-

Danzo just frowned, the boy responded without any kind of respect. 

-I don't believe that, I believe that everyone should be able to control their emotions and not get carried away by them. If it were up to me they wouldn't exist-

-then you wouldn't exist-

The Anbus were about to take out their weapons to kill the brat for threatening Danzo, but he himself stopped them with a hand signal. 

-What do you mean by that, young Uzumaki?-

-If we existed in a world without emotions, you, I and even the two Anbu present here would not exist-

-If you talk about love...-

-No-

-¿No?-

-Yes, I'm not referring to love, he talked about lust. I recognize that there are people who have children without loving each other but why does that happen? Easy lust, without lust there can be no sex and without sex there is no reproduction and without reproduction we would become extinct.

-Very good reflection young Uzumaki, but one way or another we can solve that-

-True, but life would lose flavor, don't you think?-

Danzo could only shake his head, he was about to use the kotoamatsukami on the boy to control him and begin his training. He was trying to use it on the Daimio, but in the end he only used a low-level genjutsu to obtain his seal.

-That doesn't matter, get ready to start your training boy-

-Before that, can I say something?-

Danzo just frowned again, this brat was already exasperating him, but he was going to give him this last thing. 

-Of course-

-In the mission report you asked if I had a new technique-

-Are you going to tell me what it is?-

-Yes, but first I'm going to tell you his name, I just thought about what to call him. Is that okay with you?-

-Of course young Uzumaki, surprise me-

Thus Naruto raised his right hand where he had a seal tattooed on his hand, but not just any seal, but an explosive one. 

-Golden Ratio-

Danzo had little time to react, as soon as the boy finished speaking a giant and very strong explosion began. 

His strength was so great that it shook all of Konoha to its foundations.

_ 15 minutes ago _

You can see Jiraya and Tsunade in the Hokage office, the two were silent. 

Tsunade sitting on the Hokage chair and Jiraya on the couch inside the office 

-Did we do the right thing?-

-It depends on Tsunade, if we talk about the fact that we betrayed the village and put our feelings on its well-being. No Tsunade as shinobi we fail-

-But?-

-But as human beings and godparents of the child we did the right thing, for the first time in his life we ​​put him first, we failed the child too much by leaving him alone in his childhood. AND excusing ourselves with our pain and loss, leaving the child relegated, when he should have been our priority. I just hope that with this, at least he can be happy and if at the end of his life, he is not in Konoha but he was happy and free. Believe me Tsunade, I would go through the worst of hell if it meant that boy had that end.

-Yes... me too...-

Silence fell again inside the office. 

But all that was disturbed by the sound of the explosion and the tremor that reached the village.

-Anbus, follow me. You too Jiraya-

-I'm already behind you Tsunade-

He would say as he jumped directly towards where the epicenter of the explosion was. 

In a large crater, Danzo was very badly injured, not to endanger his life, but to further limit his mobility. 

Danzo at this time was angry with the damned Uzumaki, he deceived him and his Anbu, making himself immolate and in the process destroying their NE bases, and killing all their agents present, if it was not enough he had to sacrifice the eye of Shisui Uchiha and with that the kotoamatsukami, to use Izanagi and save his life 

But despite all his rage he fell unconscious, his age plus his injuries and the fact that Izanagi was used without his right arm made him wear out too much.

And when he woke up it would be too late to look for Naruto. 

_ Elsewhere _

We can see Naruto walking along a path, while he was eating a bread 

Damn, I already left the village, and I can't go back, now that...

They were Naruto's thoughts until 

-What the fuck- He screamed loudly, he didn't know how he has the memories of what his clone did. 

-Your clone shined Kid, and I like the name the Golden Ratio gave it, it doesn't sound intimidating but it sounds good-

-You're worried about the name, I'm more worried about how I got his memories-

-I have a theory that clones have the ability to return the memories they obtain to the original-

-I already realized that, what surprises me is that until now I realize that-

-Maybe it's because whenever you use them, it's only for one goal in mind and multiple tasks.-

…

…

…

-You are very talkative with me Kyubi-

-It's boring being in here, plus I feel like something big is coming and I don't want to lose it.-

-Of course-

…

…

…

-You are not going to read the letters that the pervert told you about-

-Do you think we are far enough from Konoha?-

-Yes, also with the explosion it is very unlikely that they will chase you for at least a week-

-Well, let's read them then-

Hiruzen 

Naruto, my boy, there are so many things that I would like to tell you and be able to do with you. Give you your Chunnin vest or even the Jounin, watch you become the greatest Kage, but I have a feeling I won't live for long.

And that is why I want to start this letter apologizing to you. I failed in many ways with you, hiding the fact that I was a Jinchuriki and hiding the fact that I know who your parents were, yes Naruto I knew. 

Your parents were Minato Namikaze the 4th Hokage and Kushina Uzumaki the princess of Uzu no Kuni. I never told you the truth, it was out of weakness, I have no real excuses, I could justify myself and say it was to protect you, but I would be lying to you, I did it out of fear. At first it was out of fear of your hatred for the village, I was afraid that this would be your last impulse that would lead you to leave the village or destroy it.

But then I was afraid of your reaction, not with the village, but towards our relationship, I was afraid that you would break our ties and stop seeing me as your grandfather. 

 There is no written way to describe my regret for my cowardly actions, but I don't care about that now, I don't care if you forgive me or decide to hate me, I'm not going to stop you. The only thing I ask of you is that you do not vent your fury against Konohamaru, he is innocent of all this 

I don't know if I will see you again, but I want you to know that if I did I would tell you the whole truth. I don't know if you believe me, but I hope you know that this is the absolute truth. 

Without further ado Hiruzen Sarutobi, your grandfather 

Naruto held Hiruzen's letter in his shaking hands, he didn't know how to feel, he had a sea of ​​emotions ranging from anger, hatred, sadness, pain and even regret. He didn't know what to do and there was only one thing he could do: cry silent tears.

How many times did I ask the old man who his parents were? And how many times did he lie to her face? 

Damn shitty old man, damn Hiruzen Sarutobi and damn grandpa. As much as he wants to hate him he can't, not because he's his former Hokage. He just can't hate him because he was his grandfather and despite all his mistakes he tried to redeem himself in the end. That doesn't mean you'll forgive him. 

Minato 

Hello Naruto, I don't know if you already know this information, but I am your father, the truth is that I have something to write to you, so much so that I insist that my mother write these letters and now I have nothing. I can only hope that these letters never have to be opened and that your mother and I are by your side. 

But I don't know the future, even being one of the strongest shinobi of the current era, I don't know if I can stay alive to see you grow and accompany you in life. 

The truth is I would like to be there to teach you and guide you in life, but if you read this, it means that I am not by your side. And if that happens, I want to apologize for not being able to be by your side. 

But I want you to know that I love you with all my being, one of the happiest moments of my life was when Kushina told me she was pregnant, I felt so much joy that I couldn't contain myself and cry with happiness 

I don't know what direction your life took, but I want you to know that no matter what path you take I will be proud of it and I can only ask that you be happy. 

With nothing more to say to you, Dad says goodbye 

Today was a day of a lot of crying, Naruto had the letter wet from crying so much while he read it. He always wanted to hear that, that your dad is proud of you, and that he loves you no matter what. 

But why don't I explain why I seal the Kyubi inside him?

-Maybe the letters were written before your birthday. And the Minato and Kushina at that time did not know the tragedy that was going to befall them.-

-I say again that you have been very talkative lately, Kyubi. Don't tell me that you already like me?-

-Damn brat, it's not your problem and you don't care, I'm going to talk all I want.-

-I don't care, I thank you for accompanying me in these moments Kyubi-

-I do it because I have no choice, I'm sealed inside you brat-

-Hahahahaha, yes what you say Kyubi-

Kyubi just closed his eyes and lay down, he didn't want to talk anymore.

-Okay now let's go to the last letter-

Kushina 

Hello Sochi, how are you, it's me, mom.

I tell your father that these letters are not necessary, nothing bad is going to happen, but not him, we have to be prepared, I will teach him what it means to be prepared.

Well that doesn't matter, this letter is not for him, it is for you sochi and that is why I am going to advise you now, if you ever open this letter 

First women, in this world there are men and women, there are both good and bad, regardless of sex, ethnicity or beliefs. And that's why I tell you, love whoever you want, but when you find a partner, treat her well and with care, but don't let yourself be abused either.

Better get yourself one that looks like your mother, a sexy, very fiery redhead. So that they give me many grandchildren and start a revolution against the world Hahahaha 

-Well, mom was very clear about things, no- she would say it with a bead of sweat on her forehead just like the Kyubi, she knew that Kushina was a little crazy. 

Alcohol and Money, do not drink before you are 21, it could harm your growth and do not ask or lend money, the truth is that it is not very important and it is more of an advice that I give you so that you can take care of yourself, both physically and mentally. 

But if there is something that I do want you to know, it is that I love you, I love you with all my being, there is so much love that I feel for you that I don't know how to describe it, it is a love so deep and unique that I don't know how to express it, but I can only tell you that it is the love of a mother towards her child. 

I'm not going to ask you much in this letter, just that you be happy and live free. Let nothing stop you, go and live your life as you please, but be happy. I don't care if it's inside or outside of Konoha, remember that this world is giant and it's a big treasure island, with hundreds if not thousands of places to explore. Live your life to the fullest so that at the end of your lives you leave without any regrets 

Without further ado, this is a mother's letter to her beloved son. 

Naruto was crying again, but it was happiness, he finally knew who his parents were and that they loved him, with all their being, and only with that could he be happy. 

But his mother was right, he had the opportunity to be whatever he wanted to be. He doesn't know why but he feels that it is a brand slogan. 

Well it doesn't matter, the point is that his mother was right, this world was an immense treasure island and he was going to explore it all, to live without limits and die without regrets. 

 He was Naruto Uzumaki and something is already being unleashed that the world is not prepared for.
