Waves 7

Naruto's eyes have gone cold, he raised his head and said: "You know, people like you, are the type of people I hate the most, coward!"

Seeing the sky cold eyes of Naruto piercing through him the kid wasn't able to find the courage to retort. "If you are too coward to try, then don't. Just sit down there all day and cry. That's everything that you are good at." The boy started to cry as the stream of tears covered his face.

The air in the room got tense, Tazuna and Tsunami didn't know what to say. Mito spoke "Naruto-nii, Inari childhood wasn't the easiest, he didn't mean to..." She heard about Inari's truth from Tazuna. But Naruto didn't let her finish as he stood up and left the table.

Kakashi sigh "Naruto, where are you going?" Naruto simply kept walking without turning back "Training." Hearing that Menma's eyes turned even colder but he said nothing. Sasuke immediately stopped eating and got up as he rushed to the door.

"Sasuke, where are you going?" this time it was Itachi. "Train, I won't let him overtake me!" he said with desperation in his eyes. Kakashi felt gave a glance to the boy that was trembling, he couldn't tell if it was from fear or emotions. The young boy ran upstairs. The table was silent, nobody spoke.

Naruto cold words still echoed in their hearts. Sakura was the first one to break the silence. "I'm sorry Tsunami-san, Tazuna-san, Naruto isn't like that usually, I don't know what made him say such heartless words to Inari."

Both Narumi and Mito had their expression worsen at Sakura's words. They knew that everything Naruto said was from personal experience, which made them feel bad. Narumi spoke coldly at Sakura "You know nothing on Naruto-nii life, so don't you dare say such words on him!"

Sakura was surprised at the anger that Narumi showed 'I guess that Naruto had things worse for him as well. I know that he was called Dead last and loser, but...' she thought to herself as she tried for the first time think about who is truly Namikaze Naruto.

- Change Location - Forest -

Naruto was standing In front of a huge tree that seemed badly damaged, his left hand was covered in lightning, dancing wildly around He dashed off at the tree and slammed his hand into the trunk of the tree and it exploded.

The Chidori destroyed the tree which made it crash into the ground. Sasuke was standing on a nearby tree and watched Naruto Chidori, as he clenched his teeth deeply and hit the tree with his fist 'Dammit Naruto! How far will you go?!' Sasuke jealousy in Naruto was something that came to exist long ago.

No matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't catch up to him, let alone surpass him!

Naruto looked at the damaged tree and smiled, 'Good. I pretty much got hang of it. Now what is left is to just to create my version of it, this Jutsu is very basic. It's still can be improved!"

Naruto made a hand seal where 100 clones appeared. There is no need to say that these are all Kage bunshin, 50 of them left to train in a new version of the Chidori. The other fifty stood in front of Naruto.

Naruto stood in front of them as they charged at him.

Time slowly passed...

Naruto punched another clone out of existence before slamming his foot in another's chest. He was breathing heavily, fighting against himself was harder than he thought, He didn't use any Jutsu, It was pure Taijutsu fight, he wanted to know how hard it will be to fight against himself.

Just like he thought it was very hard when your opponent knows everything about you. So it proved as a good training method, not only he was at a huge disadvantage, he found it more refreshing having such a hard time. He also found openings in his own fighting style that he could improve now.

Time passed slowly; He was covered in wounds, he was bleeding, most of his body was bruised but he didn't give up, There were only three clones left, Naruto bearly could move now. The tree clones dashed at him, his eyes flashed in electricity, he disappeared in a lightning flash, and appeared above them and flipped in kicking both of the clones to the ground before punching the last when in the neck.

He collapsed to the ground as the three clones disappeared. He was leaning on his back breathing heavily 'With the last three clones I had no choice but to use the "Raijin Mode". I still have a lot to learn.'

Location Change - Outside of Tazuna House -

Inari was sitting outside crying. Mito and Narumi came out of the house and saw him. They looked at each other before they walked toward him. Mito came sitting next to him "Do you mind?" Inari cried and shook his head. Narumi looked at the water and said: "I'm sorry about Naruto-nii words, they might sound hurtful but he only told you what he thought."

Mito continued her "You see, Naruto-nii isn't the most sympathetic man. His childhood wasn't the easiest." Inari raised his head in surprise to Mito's words. but said, "He didn't seem like he had anything bad happened to him, there was no sadness or pain in his eyes."

Mito closed her eyes in pain and said "Because he is very good at hiding it. I know that because I was one of the people that caused him so much pain." Inari's eyes widened at Mito's words.

"Naruto-nii is, in fact, our elder brother, and because of us he had to go through a lot of pain in his life, he has always been seen in contempt by the Village while we have been adored by everyone" Spoke Narumi with a deep sadness in her eyes.

Mito continued "Our parents put him aside in the favor of training us, His family, his father, and mother choose us over him. I don't know the reason for that, but because of that, people started to think that our parents throw him because he wasn't worth it. He lost his only source of love in the world." She couldn't speak anymore as tears streamed in her eyes, an image of Naruto sad eyes from their childhood came to her mind.

Inari was shocked hearing about Naruto past "We aren't innocent either, because we both took the advice of a stupid fox, we also deeply hurt him and left him all alone when needed us the most."
