With Naruto -
Meanwhile, Naruto was getting ready for his highly anticipated date. It was a significant milestone for him, marking his first real romantic encounter in this life or his past. The thought of making a lasting impression filled him with both exhilaration and a sense of responsibility. However, one aspect left him perplexed – choosing the perfect outfit. Naruto pondered over his wardrobe, his brows furrowed in deep concentration. He wanted to present himself in the best possible light, not wanting to disappoint or fail in this important endeavor. Amidst the struggle of deciding on the ideal attire, he couldn't help but contemplate his true power. As the mighty Aizen, he possessed godlike abilities, but his commitment to concealing his identity as Naruto restrained him from fully utilizing those powers. Such thoughts briefly danced through his mind before he refocused on the task at hand.
BEHOLD THE ULTIMATE WEAPON
Naruto wore a white T-shirt under a black jacket with an orange inside, black ninja pants and a pair of shoes.
Finally, after much deliberation, Naruto found something that he believed would make him look stunning. With a satisfied nod, he teleported a short distance away from Inglis' location. He didn't want to reveal the extent of his abilities, preferring to keep a low profile and avoid unnecessary attention.
Approaching Inglis from behind, Naruto playfully called out, "I-n-g-l-i-s-san!" Startled, Inglis took a few quick steps away, letting out a surprised exclamation. Her heart raced in response to the unexpected greeting, her cheeks flushing with a rosy hue. Naruto couldn't help but find her reaction adorable, his objective of impressing her aligning perfectly with his overall plan.
"It's just me," Naruto reassured her, his tone filled with mischievous amusement. "Awh! You didn't have to scare me like that!" Inglis replied, her face still tinged with embarrassment.
Chuckling softly, Naruto continued, "I can't help it. You just look too cute." His words were carefully chosen to ignite a spark in Inglis' heart, to create a lasting impression that would linger in her thoughts.
Caught off guard by Naruto's compliment, Inglis found herself speechless, her face growing even redder, resembling a ripe tomato. The sheer intensity of her emotions overwhelmed her, causing her to lose balance and stumble. In a swift motion, Naruto caught her, a smug smirk gracing his features. "All according to plan," he whispered to himself, relishing in the success of his calculated words and actions.
Little did they know that their meeting would mark the beginning of an extraordinary journey, one that would intertwine their fates and propel them into a world of adventure, love, and unimaginable power. As they embarked on their date, unaware of the challenges that awaited them, the stage was set for a tale that would surpass their wildest dreams and forge an unbreakable bond between them.
5 minutes later, at some other location -
Inglis woke up to find herself in a comfortable bed, her surroundings unfamiliar at first. She glanced around and saw Naruto sitting on the edge of the bed, his presence bringing a sense of warmth and reassurance. "N-Naruto..." she said softly, her voice filled with both surprise and relief.
"Huh, you're awake? Good timing!" Naruto exclaimed, his eyes lighting up as he looked at her. Inglis slowly sat up, feeling a mix of curiosity and confusion. "Where are we?" she asked, her gaze scanning the room. Naruto smiled and replied, "We're in my house."
Inglis couldn't believe her ears. "Y-Your house!?" she exclaimed, her astonishment evident. Thoughts raced through her mind, each one vying for attention. 'Naruto's house! I am inside Naruto's house!' The realization filled her with a combination of excitement and nervousness, making her heart flutter.
Naruto noticed her reaction and chuckled softly. "Yes, my house," he confirmed, enjoying the effect his words had on her. He wanted this date to be memorable, to create an experience they would both cherish.
As they got up from the bed, Inglis couldn't help but feel a rush of emotions. Her mind was buzzing with questions and anticipation. "We can continue our date now," Naruto suggested, his voice laced with enthusiasm. Inglis blushed at the mention of their date, her cheeks turning a rosy shade. "Where do you want to go? You said you had something planned out," she inquired, her voice slightly shaky.
"Let us go," Naruto responded with a gentle smile. In an instant, he activated his teleportation ability, whisking both of them away to a different location.
Scene change -
As they appeared in their new location, Inglis found herself awestruck by the breathtaking scenery before her. "Th-this is... did you plan all this?" she stammered, her eyes wide with amazement. The place they had arrived at was none other than the top of the Hokage monument, transformed into a romantic setting. Tables and chairs were elegantly arranged, candles flickered, and the moonlight bathed everything in a soft glow. It was a scene straight out of a fairy tale.
Naruto, still by her side, looked at her tenderly. "I did plan all this," he admitted, his voice filled with sincerity. Inglis couldn't believe the level of thoughtfulness and effort he had put into making this evening unforgettable.
"Now, now. Let us begin," Naruto said, his tone filled with charm. He gracefully dropped to one knee, extending his right hand toward Inglis. "Would you like to share a dance with me, my lady?" he asked, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
Inglis felt her heart skip a beat as she took in the romantic ambiance and Naruto's chivalrous gesture. A delighted smile graced her lips as she accepted his invitation. Suddenly, a stage materialized before them, and the soft strains of music filled the air. Naruto had arranged for musicians to accompany their dance, ensuring that every detail was perfect.
They moved together, their steps synchronized, as if they were the only two people in the world. The enchanting melody guided their every movement, creating an ethereal atmosphere. Time seemed to stand still as they danced, lost in the magic of the moment.
When the dance concluded, the stage vanished, leaving Naruto and Inglis seated comfortably at the elaborately set table. Their food had been served, and the aroma of delicious dishes wafted through the air.
Inglis couldn't contain her curiosity any longer. "Did you plan all this? How? How were you able to arrange such a magnificent setting in just a couple of hours?" she asked, her voice filled with wonder and puzzlement.
Naruto grinned, delighted by her reaction. "Simple," he replied, leaning back in his chair. "I planned all this since the day you transferred to the academy. I wanted our date to be perfect, something we would both remember." His answer left her speechless, and she stared at him in awe.
"W-What if I hadn't asked you out?" Inglis questioned, her mind still trying to grasp the extent of his foresight. Naruto's smile widened as he replied, "Even if you hadn't asked, I would've asked you out. You are just incredibly beautiful and charming." The sincerity in his voice made Inglis's heart skip a beat.
"You think I am b-beautiful?" she stuttered, her face reddening. Naruto's eyes softened as he reached across the table, gently taking her hand in his. "Of course! You are the most beautiful woman I've ever seen," he declared, his words filled with genuine admiration.
Inglis was taken aback by his words, her doubts and insecurities momentarily forgotten. "R-r-r-real-ly?" she stammered, her voice barely above a whisper.
"Really!" Naruto affirmed, his voice filled with conviction. "But for now, let us set aside any questions or worries. Let's savor this meal together. Itadakimasu!" he exclaimed, expressing gratitude for the food before them.
"Itadakimasu," Inglis echoed, her voice tinged with a mix of awe and contentment. As they shared their meal, surrounded by the beauty of the Hokage monument and the warmth of their connection, Inglis couldn't help but feel that this was just the beginning of an extraordinary journey filled with love, adventure, and countless memorable moments.
Scene change -
Naruto and Inglis strolled back through the bustling streets of the village, their footsteps blending with the ambient sounds of laughter and conversation. The sun began its descent, casting a warm, golden hue over the lively scene. Little did they know that their tranquil walk would soon take an unexpected turn.
As they turned a corner, a group of three men emerged from the shadows, their eyes filled with a disturbing mix of desire and malice. The leader, a burly figure with a wicked grin, stepped forward, his intentions evident.
"What's a cutie like you doing with a pipsqueak like that?" he taunted, pointing a finger at Naruto. "We can show you a real good time, far better than this loser. Come on, sweetheart."
Inglis felt a shiver crawl up her spine as she instinctively moved closer to Naruto, seeking solace and protection from the encroaching danger. But before the man could lay a hand on her, an inexplicable turn of events unfolded.
A sudden gust of wind swept through the narrow street, causing the men's hair to ruffle and their clothes to billow. Startled, they stumbled back, momentarily taken aback by the unseen force. In the midst of their confusion, a blur of motion occurred, too swift for the human eye to track.
The assailant struck with lightning speed, delivering precise blows that connected with bone-crushing force. The sound of impact echoed through the air as the three men were flung backward, their bodies crashing into the nearby walls. Bruises blossomed on their skin, blood trickling from their mouths. They lay there, stunned and trembling, their expressions a mix of disbelief and fear.
A collective gasp swept through the surrounding crowd as witnesses tried to make sense of the bewildering spectacle. The assailant's identity remained shrouded in mystery, their movements too swift for anyone to discern. Whispers filled the air as people attempted to piece together the fragments of this unexpected intervention.
"W-what just happened?" Inglis stammered, her voice barely audible amidst the shocked murmurs surrounding them. Her eyes darted back and forth between the men on the ground and the surrounding crowd, searching for answers.
Naruto, too, wore an expression of surprise, his eyes widened in astonishment. "I have no idea," he replied, his voice filled with genuine bewilderment. "That was... incredible. Whoever did this must be incredibly powerful."
Inglis looked at Naruto, a mix of awe and gratitude in her eyes. She couldn't help but feel a deep sense of comfort in his presence, as if he possessed a hidden strength she had yet to fully comprehend. "Thank you," she whispered, her voice filled with sincerity.
Naruto blinked, acting as if he had no knowledge of the events that had just unfolded. He scratched his head sheepishly. "I'm not sure what happened, but I'm glad you're safe, Inglis."
Meanwhile, Itachi, an astute observer, had witnessed the entire incident from a distance. Though he couldn't discern Naruto's involvement, he sensed the presence of an extraordinary power. Itachi's curiosity was piqued, and he made a mental note to dig deeper into the mystery surrounding Naruto and the unexplained intervention.
As rumors of the incident spread throughout the village, tales of a mysterious savior captured the imaginations of the villagers. Speculations ran rampant, with theories ranging from hidden protectors to supernatural beings. No one suspected Naruto, for he played his part convincingly, feigning innocence and ignorance of his own actions.
News of the encounter reached the ears of Minato, the Fourth Hokage, who received reports detailing the inexplicable display of power. The village leader's brow furrowed as he mulled over the information, his mind filled with questions. How could someone possess such incredible speed and skill? Who was the masked savior who had come to Inglis's rescue? It was a puzzle that demanded answers.
Unbeknownst to all, Naruto carried the secret of his intervention close to his chest. As he continued his journey with Inglis, their bond growing stronger by the day, he chose to keep his true identity hidden, embracing the role of the humble hero, always there to protect and support her.
Little did they know that their intertwined destinies held more surprises, and the truth behind the enigmatic intervention would gradually unravel, shaping their future in ways they could never have imagined.
1 week later -
One week had passed since the mysterious incident, and whispers about it continued to circulate throughout the academy. Speculation ran rampant, with students gossiping about who could have possibly defeated those men with such incredible speed and power. But amidst the chatter, the true identity of the hero remained a closely guarded secret.
Meanwhile, the news of Naruto and Inglis's supposed relationship had spread like wildfire among the students. It seemed that word of their romantic outing had leaked, and the hallways buzzed with jealous murmurs and heated conversations.
"He stole Inglis-chan from me! That yellow-haired brat!" one boy exclaimed, his voice dripping with anger and resentment. The boys' frustrations grew as they challenged Naruto, only to meet with painful consequences for their misguided attempts.
Sasuke Uchiha, on the other hand, remained aloof and indifferent to the gossip. His dark eyes betrayed a hint of curiosity, observing the unfolding drama without becoming personally entangled in it.
Among those affected by the newfound relationship, Menma Uzumaki Namikaze seethed with a growing hatred towards Naruto. Menma had held affections for Inglis, and now that Naruto had seemingly taken her away, his animosity intensified with each passing day.
Menma couldn't resist stealing glances at Inglis whenever he had the chance, his eyes filled with a mixture of longing and resentment. The other children, quick to pick up on his peculiar behavior, began taunting him with derogatory names like "Weirdo," "Creep," and even "Black Haired Demon."
Aizen, ever the keen observer, couldn't help but notice Menma's obsession. However, he deemed it irrelevant to his grand plan and chose to let the matter unfold as it would. After all, Menma's actions had no bearing on the steps Aizen needed to take for his ultimate scheme.
Meanwhile, inside the classroom, Iruka's booming voice interrupted the students' gossip-filled chatter. With his Big Head Jutsu, he commanded their attention and introduced the day's lesson on Kekkei Genkai, the unique bloodline abilities of various clans.
As Iruka delved into the topic, he explained the renowned Uchiha clan's Sharingan and its formidable capabilities. The students listened intently as he described the Sharingan's ability to perceive movements beyond ordinary sight and its powerful application in Genjutsu, particularly the feared Tsukuyomi.
"First we have the Uchiha, known for their Sharingan. It is capable of many things, and it is a feared eye. They can see movements that normal eyes cannot see. And the sharingan is also used for Genjutsu, Genjutsu powered by the Sharingan is very powerful, but the Kurama clans Genjutsu is the most powerful. The Sharingan is capable of creating a dimension that can trap someone for 72 hours and only moments would pass in the real world. It is called the Tsukuyomi."
Next, he moved on to the Haruno clan and their Banshee Arts, revealing their ability to turn people, animals, and objects into stone with their piercing screams. The Banshee Arts could be reversed by the caster, ensuring the petrification was not permanent.
"Second is, the Haruno clans Banshee Arts. They can make people, animals and things turn to stone by screaming. That is called the Banshee Arts, they can also restore the things they turn to stone. So it's not permanent if the one who cast it disables its effect."
Lastly, Iruka shed light on the lesser-known Eucus clan's Shigan, a formidable Dōjutsu capable of taking lives at the wielder's will. He emphasized its ability to perceive movements even beyond the Sharingan's capabilities, as well as its enigmatic and incomprehensible aspects.
"Third is, the Eucus clan's Shigan. It is a very powerful Dōjutsu, it can kill people when the wielder wants it to, but there are limits. The ability cannot kill someone 1000 times stronger than the wielder. But someone that strong is most likely not possible. It is also capable of seeing movements that even the Sharingan cannot see, and it is capable of doing some things beyond our comprehension."
'It is even greater than our Sharingan!? I need that eye, I need it to kill 'him'' Sasuke thought while scheming how to take the Shigan.
With the lesson concluded, Iruka transitioned into other topics, but his words became a background murmur as thoughts swirled within Aizen's mind. He couldn't help but recognize the potential significance of Inglis and her role in his grand design. The gears of his plan began to turn, and he silently vowed to take action to further solidify what he had set in motion one week ago.
At lunch break -
During lunch break, Inglis found herself gazing at the tranquil view when Naruto approached her. His voice carried a tinge of mischief as he made a request.
"Inglis-chan, could you close your eyes for a moment?" Naruto asked, a playful tone in his voice.
Inglis, intrigued by the mystery of Naruto's request, obliged and closed her eyes, anticipation tingling in her veins.
And then, it happened—a soft sensation on her lips. Her eyes flew open, meeting Naruto's close proximity and the lingering taste of their unexpected kiss. Her face flushed a deep crimson, mirroring the color of her racing heart. The surrounding students erupted in astonished exclamations and excited whispers.
"No way! He just kissed her!"
"I could never muster the courage to do that!"
Amidst the commotion, Menma seethed with a burning rage. Not only had Naruto seemingly stolen Inglis from him, but he had also dared to kiss her. The anger inside him intensified, fueling his determination to exact revenge.
Inglis, still reeling from the unexpected kiss, struggled to process the surge of emotions that flooded her being. She couldn't believe what had transpired but couldn't deny the fluttering feeling that lingered within her. It was a moment she had secretly yearned for, and now that it had materialized, it left her both bewildered and exhilarated.
"I... I liked it," Inglis whispered, her voice barely audible above the cacophony of gossip and shocked murmurs. Naruto's smile, seemingly filled with genuine warmth, only added to her perplexity.
Meanwhile, Aizen observed the scene with hidden satisfaction(Aizen from inside Naruto), recognizing that his carefully laid plans were progressing as intended. His eyes focused on Inglis, knowing that she held the potential to become a key player in his grand scheme.
As lunchtime continued and the students gradually resumed their usual routines, Inglis and Naruto returned to their seats, their hearts and minds filled with a newfound connection. Little did they know that their relationship, entangled with secrets and unspoken truths, would soon be tested in ways they could never have imagined.
