Naruto - I'm sorry dattebayo. Its first time since someone said he wants to become my friend. Shishishishishi..
I suddenly felt pity for Naruto as he tried to convince me that he was fine by laughing weirdly. I just gave a strong pat to his back and tried to cheer him up.
Me - Dont worry. I am your friend now. So I will always be there to help you. Just promise me that you wont cry like this in future. Tears dont suit strong men after all..
I said while wiping his face with sleeve of my t shirt. Soon I frowned because I could feel a strong aura locked on us. Maybe because of taijutsu skill, I was adept in sensing aura of strong people now. I did not change look at the newcomer's direction though because I knew that I wont be attacked. If he wanted to do something , then he could have done it in seconds already.
??? - Naruto and Shin , you have been summoned by Hokage to his office.
I heard his voice finally and realised that he had flickered behind me. I smiled when I turned around because I could recognize the guy. He was wearing anbu uniform and dog mask but I could easily recognize that he was Hatake Kakashi from his silver white hair.
I immediately guessed that Hokage must have watched me and Naruto with his damn crystal ball. I respected the guy because he was strong but I did not like him much. He definitely knew about Naruto's plight with his crystal ball and still did not help the little guy much. I could not bring myself to like the will of fire maniac.
Naruto - Jiji ? But our classes are not over yet dattebayo..
I inwardly sighed because Naruto seemed to be very attached to old man Hokage. Well I decided not to change Naruto's perspective about the old man because it would bring me only harm instead. But if I let it as it is then maybe I could gain some benifits. After all I only needed to instill great impression in Hokage's mind and could get free awesome jutsu from him.
Me - Naruto , we can explain to sensei later. Now whe should go because it will be disrespectful to Hokage if we arrive in his office late.
Naruto - Hmm.. Okay.
The brat was really simple minded. It's a good thing for now anyway.
Me - Lead the way Hatake Kakashi san.
I turned around to leave but a strong hand grabbed my shoulder from behind. I smirked as I could finally converse with Kakashi. I had to start from here to build a good relationship with him in future. I planned to join anbu soon after all and Kakashi's support will prove beneficial then.
Kakashi - How did you know ?
Tch.. Kakashi started directing his pressure towards me but I casually shrugged it off because he was not being serious at all. Otherwise with my current strenght it would have been difficult for me to remain standing.
Me - You may be hiding your appearance with anbu mask but I only know one strong ninja who has unique hair color like yourself in Konoha. And dont try to intimidate me in future because I dont like it.
I released my own aura for a second after saying that. Aura was manifestation of your will and strength. My strenght may be lacking right now but my confidence and will were nothing to scoff at and I knew it.
Me - Let's move Naruto...
I ignored Kakashi and started walking toward the main entrance of Academy. Hokage building was located right next to Academy so there was no need to run. Kakashi's gaze was locked on me and I could feel it. I smiled inwardly because at least he had started showing interest in me now. I had relased my aura before for this reason. In this world only strong were respected and I showed him that I had potential to become strong... Ah.. I really wanted to kick some ass now and learn some cool jutsu.. I suppressed the fire in my heart because I knew that I needed to be patient right now. I needed to take things step by step because this wasn't earth where I could act strong after just mastering few boxing techniques.... First I needed to instill good impression in Hokage and then unlock my chakra to start training for real...
