In the Academy.

Naruto, who has now gone through Kurumi's memories opened his eye. He hadn't expected her to transfer memories now of all time. Still, he understood what she is trying to say as most of her memories is about her being alone.

'Meh! I didn't expect her to try to fix my relationship with Minato. Still, I will try it.'

He looked at Minato, who is looking in one direction with a cold expression on his face. Sensing someone looking at him, Minato looked at Naruto, who had opened his eyes and his expression changed to a guilty one.

"Naruto, I am sorry for---"

"Dad. It's not your fault, Ah! I don't know care anymore. I think---" He couldn't complete his sentence as Minato rushed at him and hugged him.

"Eh? Wh-What? What are you doing?" Naruto said as he looked at Minato's smiling face.

"You called me Dad." He said with a smile and wiping tears from his eyes. Hearing this, Naruto also had a shocked expression and said, "Ah! I said it. But don't think too much. I only said it subconsciously, don't think that I am still comfortable with you."

Minato didn't say anything to it as it is good for him that Naruto is just not comfortable with calling him. He was thinking that Naruto didn't want to accept him and something along those lines.

Naruto was then separated from Minato and a serious expression appeared on his face. Seeing this, Minato looked at Naruto and asked, "What happened?'

"I need to go. It seems some people still haven't learned their lesson." Naruto said and left the Mindscape. He had just received the memories of the Shadow Clone he had left in the academy that had dispersed himself as the Seniors in the academy trying to pick on him and at Hinata.

Even though they could solve the problem on their own, Naruto has made two Shadow Clones to make sure he is informed of everything that is happening in the place.

"This time, I am not going to show any mercy to them. Let the council complain to Jiji for all I care. They have been trying to get on my nerves and they even had the guts to send people to my house under the pretext of me stealing from them." Naruto complained as he Shunshin'd away to the Academy.

He opened his Mind Eye and looked in the direction of the academy. There, he saw the Hinata and his clone fighting against the seniors with Uchiha and a few Hyuga leading them.

'Fucking Brat! Their arrogance knows no bounds. Just a few words and they would try to show who is superior to them. Hinata isn't trying to use the Seal or the Hyugas would be lying on the floor by now. She must be waiting for me to appear and then beat them together.'

In the Mindscape, Minato saw everything from Naruto's perspective. Though he could also sense what is happening outside, he kept on watching everything while clenching his fist.

As Naruto appeared in the academy, he made the Clone disappear and he appeared at the place. Seeing this, Hinata smiled and she appeared at his side. At the side, Neji, who was looking at everything with an indifferent face nodded at Naruto and then he left the place.

Naruto also returned the Nod back as the two had gotten closer, with Neji knowing a few things about him and Hinata.

"You are finally here. Now, I will start fighting seriously." Hinata said and she opened her Byakugan. Seeing this, Naruto knew that this wouldn't end as a Normal fight. He looked at everyone and then saw the teachers looking at it with fearful and gloating expressions. Fearful at the fact that Hyuga Heiress got involved while Gloating at the fact that the Demon Fox will be beaten now.

They didn't try to calm anything so when the seniors will be screaming, he wouldn't let them calm him.

Going in a fight stance like Goku, Naruto looked at the boys in front of him and said, "Yooo! Seniors and their lackeys. Are we going to fight together or you will be coming one by one?"

Hearing this, the seniors started laughing and the Uchiha Senior said, "Hahahahaha! It seems the loser has gotten some guts after staying with Hyuga. It's time we should loosen his arrogance and show him humility, right?"

"Right!"

"Also, it's not me who will be fighting you, it's her." The Uchiha said while pointing at the side. Looking in that direction, Naruto saw someone familiar and then he remembered who she is.

"Shizu-San!" His First Friend in the academy, Shizu Uchiha, who stopped associating with him because of Uchihas. Seeing her, Naruto didn't know what to say but when he looked at her closely, anger appeared to him as he could see some bruises and marks on her.

"You! What the fuck did you do to her?" Naruto said in an angered expression and seeing this, everyone in the place was satisfied. As for Hinata, she looked at Shizu Uchiha and she understood what has happened to her.

'Clan Bullying! I see. So that's why Naruto stopped associating with her as he didn't want her to get harmed by it.'

She looked at the ANBU, who was watching everything, and said, "Mister ANBU, Can you bring one of the Medics from the hospital?"

The ANBU didn't say anything to her and seeing this, Hinata smiled and said, "So, if someone dies here, then it would be your responsibility as neither you called a medic, nor you tried to stop it, okay?"

ANBU looked in the direction of Hinata and seeing her saying this with a smiling expression, he understood that something bad would happen. Creating a Shadow Clone, ANBU sent him to the Hospital, while keeping an eye scene and then making sure no one will die.

Meanwhile, Shizu was looking at her friend, Naruto. She understood what the Uchiha Seniors were trying to do and they planned to humiliate him and then humiliate her later. Looking at the angered expression of Naruto, Shizu knew that he is a kind boy who doesn't like violence but was then forced by the world. Remembering everything that her seniors had done to her under the pretext of teaching him, she just wanted to beat the crap out of them and even kill them.

Dark thoughts appeared in her mind and then she heard Naruto speak, "Shizu! Are you okay? You don't have to listen to him, I will make sure they won't be able to even join the academy. If only I knew that even meeting you would cause you a problem, I wouldn't have tried to talk to you. I thought that distancing myself would stop them from trying to pick on you but maybe I was a bit naive. At that time, I should have just shown them their place. After all, for Uchihas, Strength is everything."

Naruto said with a self-deprecating and hurtful expression on his face.
