"Where the hell is that annoying brat?" I muttered to myself as I looked around the house but failed to find one loud blonde. "Did he sneak out to eat ramen behind my back?"

I left the house to find him but couldn't wherever I looked. "He wouldn't…"

I went to the place we used to fish and saw him sitting with the old senile. Naruto was cooking fish for himself and the old Hokage. The third was looking around goofily like a person who lost his mind.

Although it didn't seem plausible, it was logical. Third Hokage, The God of Shinobi, A man survived three world wars, Hokage over several decades, a person hailed as kindest by many, a person who lived for his image was beaten publicly. His all dirty deeds revealed in a single night. He was blamed for massacring two noble clans of Konoha. His hidden orders, the things he let Danzo do… The fact that he let Orochimaru go…

When people looked at him with scorn and disgust, he snapped.

I used Stealth and approached them as I decided to observe more. After Naruto finished cooking, he passed one of the fishes to the old man and started to talk.

"Grandpa, Koushin told me that I should be more open with Kyuubi." Naruto commented as he patted his belly.

For a single second, the old man's eyes sharpened. He didn't look like the foolish-self mask he started to wear ever since he was beaten by Tsunade. It was only a single second but I still caught it.

'The fuck! This bastard wouldn't hide clothes on his belly to feign fat old man now, would he?!'

"Why does Koushin think so?" He asked, confused. From outside, he looked like a small kid, unaware of anything.

"He says, it isn't his fault to be hated." Naruto started, "He said, 'imagine being locked up for decades. Used against your will as a weapon. A tool for destruction. Trapped in people against your wish. What would you feel?' And it made sense to me. I don't think Kyuubi is evil.

I think… He is pitiful."

Hokage looked at the blonde and held the sigh in his chest. "It is not that simple, Naruto."

"What do you mean?" Naruto asked but the old man smiled goofily once again.

"About what?" Old man asked, feigning ignorance once again.

'Fucking old bastard!' I left them be, and walked back to the village.

"Yo, lazy ass and fat ass." I greeted Shikamaru and Choji sitting in the back row.

"And hello to you, smartass," Choji grumbled. We are buddies so he doesn't mind me calling him fat. They are nice guys, so I became friends with them alongside Naruto.

"Oh, dog-smelling ass is here too." I looked sideways at Kiba who was snarling at me. "Hello Akamaru."

"How do you know my ass smells like a dog? Are you perhaps an ass smelling pervert?" Kiba asked triumphantly.

"Kiba, don't act like me. You only embarrass yourself. I am not saying your ass smells like a dog, I am saying you are an ass who smells like a dog. Idiot."

"Asshole!" He howled.

"Easy boy. Easy!" I said while putting my hand on top of his head." That's my boy. That's my boy. Sit. Sit!"

"Fuck you!" He shouted.

"How can you be so energetic in the morning?" Naruto asked as he came near us too. "Hello, guys."

"Hello, Naruto." All greeted back.

"Because I am awesome. That is why." I shrugged it off and sat near the window. Naruto sat in a seat before me. We used to sit together but the asshole ditched me after he got himself a girlfriend. Seems like it is hoes before bros now.

"Shino, my favorite. How are you?" I asked as the glasses-wearing teen entered. He was always calm and quiet. He reached out his fist to bump with me.

"I am good. Why? Because I had a nice sleep. Thank you for asking, Koushin-san."

"Good, good."

"Hello, guys." A pink head approached and sat in front of Naruto. "Hello, Naruto."

"Hello, Sakura-san." Naruto greeted her back calmly. That's my boy.

Not long after Hinata too arrived and sat beside Naruto. "Hello everyone."

"Hello, Princess. How are you today?" Naruto asked, making her blush and making me puke.

"All good, Naruto-kun, how are you?" Hinata asked back and the shocking thing, no stutter!

"A little sleepy, that is all. What are we eating today?" Asked the boy. Can you believe him, Hinata was bringing him Bento every day and this boy had the audacity to ask what she brought.

As they were talking sweetly, a blonde entered the classroom. She looked over the empty spot near me but settled beside her best friend, not for long. Ah, Ino. She is beautiful. We are playing a long game of teasing, but soon it will end in victory for both of us. Soon!

After a boring history class, which I smashed, I mean I know more than any of these living fools do, so yeah, my favorite Healing Class started. Why my favorite you ask? Because Ino and I are taking it together.

"Hello, Koushin-kun." She greeted coyly.

"Hello, Pumpkin-chan." I greeted her much to her embarrassment. Now the story is interesting. When we first started to take Healing Class together, we were asked to work on pumpkins. For real. Since we were too amateur to work on actual humans, we had to diagnose and 'heal' the pumpkins.

Ino and I were working together while Naruto and Hinata were next to us. When Naruto used too much Chakra, the pumpkin exploded, (he panicked like he killed a patient, by the way. It was hilarious!) pumpkin parts sprayed all over us. Some of them on Ino's face. So, I, as a gentleman, offered to clear her face.

Welp, my hands were covered with pumpkin too, and I didn't have a napkin. So as the situation compelled me, I cleared her face by licking. Nothing perverted, I swear. And before the blaming crew arrives, I am 10 years old as the rest of the class. I know I have a previous life, but I don't have any experience of that life. I might have died while I was 10 or 100, I don't know. All I know is I am a 10 years old boy with lots of information about fiction and a cheat.

Anyways, after I licked her face, once, I said, "You taste like a pumpkin." So, it stuck with her.

"Hello, class. I am glad to see you again." Shizune entered like a boss and greeted the class. She was a little younger than I remember her, but she is still a fine Medical Kunoichi. She is teaching us kids, and she is doing a damn good job.

She started with Chakra Control and then the theory. While we're learning theories, she also demonstrated actual Jutsu on real patients, but we only watched. All in all, the class was going well.

After the class, four of us went to Ichiraku Ramen to celebrate our first real test… On frogs, still good.

With my perks, my healing is much stronger than normal. [Double Cast] and the extra percentage that comes with [Novice Healer] increased the prowess of my Mystical Palm Technique.

"Welcome girls and boys. What should I get you?" Tauchi asked as we entered.

"Hello, Tauchi-san." I greeted, "A bowl of Miso for me please."

"Special. 10 times!" Guess who.

"A pork ramen, please," Hinata ordered.

"A special one too." Ino too ordered.

"Right away." He said and vanished inside. Instead of him, his daughter appeared and greeted us.

"Aww, look at the lovebirds." Ayame looked at us adoringly.

"Ayame-san, you are going to make my pumpkin blush. She is too shy to accept it yet." I said, making Ino beet red.

"I… we…" She mumbled but couldn't form a sentence.

"Haha!" Ayame laughed as she looked at blushing Ino. "Aren't you adorable?"

"She is." I nodded sagely as I put my hand around her waist. "But too shy, sigh."

"Koushin!" She shouted and wanted to storm off, but I caught her hands.

"Pumpkin, calm down, please. Is it bad for me to show my affection? If it is, I will stop."

"It is not, but not in front of everyone." She gazed at the ground while saying softly.

"I want everyone to know you are mine, and I am yours. What is there to be embarrassed about?" I asked boldly.

She looked shocked. Then nodded coyly.

"Good, let's eat."

The food was heavenly. I had my doubts too, but this place really knows how to cook. Hell, there were even theories at the beginning of the story that Tobi was actually Teuchi, and he was spying on the village secretly.

Then when Otsutsukis were introduced, some said this shop owner was an alien and was spying on Indra and Ashura's incarnations all the time. Of course, all were jokes, but the fact remains, the food is damn good.
