On his way to the training ground, Hyto found out something amazing that will be a huge help in his life as a shinobi. He was a Sensor! As he ran, Hyto started seeing more and more glowing orbs of various sizes and soon realized that they were chakra signatures!
Another thing was, his stamina was now way better than it was just moments before! He was even able to leap further and run faster, which he tested by running across the rooftops, which helped him avoid the masses crowding the streets below.
Arriving at the training ground barely out of breath, Hyto used the knowledge from his past life and closed his eyes as he cycled the chakra throughout his body. He unconsciously started using chakra sense as well to see his surroundings but found that his range was not very far. He hoped that it would get better the more he trained it.
Hiding behind one of the trees in the surrounding forest, Hyto took a deep breath and pulled out the scroll that was left with him as a baby. Using his memories from the show, Hyto struggled and pushed his chakra into the scroll, which with a 'poof' opened up to reveal a surprising amount of contents inside.
Inside the scroll were two thick scrolls that stood out right away, one listed 'Avatar' while the other was listed 'Soul Bow'. There was also a large pile of money which just at a glance, Hyto was sure would take care of him for quite a while. One thing that immediately grabbed his attention was a handwritten letter, that judging by the handwriting was clearly written by a woman. Opening it up and skimming through the letter, Hyto was completely shocked, and now knew what god meant by a "Mysterious" background.
It turns out, Hyto was freaking royalty! Or at least somewhat. The letter was apparently written by his mother who was trying to reach the Hidden Leaf to get her and him away from a terrible fate. His mother was the next head of the branch family of the Daimyo of the Land Of Frost! And even more surprising, Hyto's father was younger brother of the 3rd Raikage himself!
Hyto's mother, Kaiko Rasugi, and his father, Bato, were arranged to be married by their clans, but fell in love with each other and wanted to run away and live a peaceful life. Bato was supposedly killed by his own brother for "betraying" him, and Kaiko was forced to flee all by herself. Kaiko writes that she was more than likely dead, making Hyto the new head of the Rasugi clan.
She goes on to detail that Hyto was found to be in possession of two extremely rare clan Kekkei Genkai, which was what helped the Rasugi clan initially gain their footing, the Elemental Bender bloodline, and the Soul Bow bloodline. She states that the Soul Bow is more common and the Rasugi namesake, but the Elemental Bender bloodline was enough to start wars over.
His father on the other hand had a Regenerative Healing bloodline that even the 3rd didn't obtain, which allowed him to even lose limbs on the battlefield and heal like nothing had ever happened. But he obviously wasn't invincible, as drowning, decapitation, or severe spine damage were enough to kill him like any other man.
She finishes by apologizing to Hyto that she couldn't be there to protect him, and that she wished for him to one day rebuild the Rasugi clan so that he can live the life that he deserved.
Hyto was shocked, beyond shocked at the intricate plot that God weaved for his reincarnation, but was now very much fearful of being exposed and hunted by Shimogakure and Kumogakure. But, He was also filled with excitement, as not only was he given some amazing bloodlines, but he was a citizen of Konaha, which means he was under the protection of the God of Shinobi himself! There was literally no safer place to be while he grew his strength!
The rest of the contents included some deeds, legal papers, Taijutsu, ninjutsu, and Kenjutsu scrolls, as well as a Neko Summoning Scroll that was important to the Rasugi clan, and a number of other scrolls full of knowledge Kaiko felt like he would need to survive and one day rebuild the Rasugi clan.
Not wanting to put it off any further, Hyto opened the two bloodline scrolls and began learning. Hours later, Hyto could pull out his Soul Bow and could perform some very basic attacks from each element, but found something troubling. Both bloodlines were very chakra draining, or it could be his lack of chakra control. Just shooting out a single rock disk or firebolt was enough to drain him before he felt most of his chakra being depleted, even with meditating in between.
Either way, the way he was right then, Hyto was practically useless in a fight, but that will all change when he gets older and trains. Looking up, the sun was setting quickly, and he had to make it back to the orphanage as soon as possible. Sealing back what he decided to call the Rasugi Clan Scroll, Hyto stowed it in his pocket before he took off in a sprint.
That night, after he ate dinner, Hyto went to bed doing the classic leaf training to help increase his chakra control. He knew that he wouldn't be able to do it throughout the night, but he read somewhere that his chakra pool was like a muscle, so if he drained it before it reached dangerous levels and let it replenish as he slept, he should be able to increase his amount of chakra and control of it in no time.
The next few weeks went by just like that. Hyto would do his One Punch Man training early in the mornings, as every anime fan knew this was the secret to getting strong. Then, he would shower and finish his chores at the orphanage, go out and train his taijutsu, archery, and ninjutsu, then end the day training his chakra before bed.
At first, Hyto worried that he was just wasting his time, but soon started to see and feel the results of his training. In his past life, he was just a lazy deadbeat that barely felt like grabbing his box of tissues when he was done with his favorite videos on Xtube but for the first time in two lifetimes, Hyto was actually finding joy in training and watching himself grow stronger.
In the training ground that he often frequents, it is still early in the morning as Hyto is training his Avatar abilities. He was still struggling with getting the basics of each element down, as he had the bright idea that since god made the effort to give him this, "Rasugi Taijutsu Style", which was full of cat-like fighting techniques, then it has to have to ability to incorporate both of his "bloodlines". And though he wasn't entirely wrong, it was proving to be extremely difficult.
While the different Bender fighting styles were good enough for the world of Avatar, such stiff styles of fighting would never work here in the Naruto world, so Hyto knew that getting this down would be the difference between life and death, but without an actual teacher helping him, like even every Avatar had, his progress on perfecting these techniques was taking far longer than he'd like.
As Hyto stomped and managed to raise a small pebble with some effort, a flash of yellow entered his peripheral vision, causing the pebble to fall due to his lost concentration. Frustrated at being interrupted, Hyto looked toward the forest where he saw the flash of yellow, but there was nothing in sight now.
Were he a regular 4 year old, Hyto would say it was just his imagination and move on, but knowing the dangerous world he lived in, including his potentially dangerous background, Hyto was not going to take any chances. Activating his sensor ability which he's been training, Hyto saw a chakra signature hiding behind a tree, which was too big to be a regular animal and too small to be an adult, which leaves only one possibility.
"You know, it's rude to peek on people and not introduce yourself." Hyto said after letting out a heavy sigh, as he felt that he wouldn't be able to get to finish his training for the day.
'Maybe I should see if I can buy a house when I become shinobi? If I make some smart investments now, even with just a small amount of the money that my mom left me, I could make a killing and be rich. Well, richer I should say, since apparently my mother left me a ton of money.' Hyto thought to himself.
After he got the matron of the orphanage to teach him reading, writing, and most importantly how to count money, as the currency here is different from anything Hyto had ever seen.
Several moments go by and Hyto was starting to lose his patience until finally a little boy with blue eyes and spikey blonde hair walked out from behind the true, and Hyto was completely shocked to see who it was.
'It's Minato fucking Namikaze! The Yellow Flash himself and the father of the future god-level shinobi, Naruto! Holy fuck, I do remember God saying that he was going to send me back in the same period as Minato, but the implications never actually hit me until now! I could literally fuck the whole universe if I wanted to, just by fucking Kushina instead of Minato, preventing Naruto from ever being born!' Hyto thought as he got excited from the power over the universe he now wielded.
But, those thoughts were soon cooled down as he remembered that without Naruto, the universe was actually pretty fucked, and he had no interest in becoming Hokage or being the savior of the world. Hyto decided that after he grew strong enough, he was going to find a wife, have a kid or two, retire and live the rest of his life in peace. Who in their right mind wanted to work all the time and live a life of constant battling?
Fidgeting and rubbing his hands together with a slight blush on his cheeks, Minato actually looked kind of adorable as a kid in a completely non-creepy way. More like, I wan't to pinch your cheeks, but I don't want you to think I'm gay kind of way. Either way, Hyto was enjoying watching this future powerhouse acting nervously in front of him.
"H-hey, my name is Minato Namikaze. I-i was watching you training, and I was wondering if you'd like to train together with me?" Minato asked in a meek tone that made you want to hug him and say it'll be okay.
"Nice to meet you, Minato. My name is Hyto Rasugi! And sure, I don't mind training with you, but I'll be honest, I don't really have any idea what I'm doing." Hyto said bashfully as he rubbed the back of his head.
Sure, he had the scrolls, but if someone handed you a high-level chemistry book and said that you had to learn it by yourself and that you'd be having a test on it soon, you'd be lost as well.
"Oh, well we could just spare together. My father has been teaching me taijutsu for a while now, so that could help. Or if anything, I can always ask my dad to teach us once he gets back from his mission... but if that's too much, I understand..." Minato said with his head hung low.
'Come on! What are you, a sad puppy? How is anyone supposed to even say no to a display like this?! Was young Minato a lot like his son, where he didn't have many friends? Well, at least until he enters the academy and starts showing everyone how badass he is.' Hyto thought so himself.
"Minato, calm down. We can definitely be sparing partners. I usually just punch this tree, so at least having another person here can help me feel less stupid." Hyto joked, which made Minato let out a soft laugh.
"So, are you ready to spare now? I'm excited to see how I'll fare against someone who isn't my father!" Minato said enthusiastically, practically bouncing in place.
"Sure, lets go!" Hyto said, entering his stance that he's been practicing. He was excited to potentially beat Minato's ass, so one day when Minato was famous, he could always say that he beat Minato once. Nobody else had to know it was only when they were literal toddlers.
As Minato entered his own stance, his whole aura changed from the once cute and shy kid, to one that was full of focus and determination, and Hyto had a really bad feeling that he was about to get his ass handed to him.
Choosing to be more cautious than gung-ho like he was before proved to be a wise choice, as after a few short seconds of checking each other, Minato took off like a bolt, already throwing a punch towards Hyto's face before he realized how fucked he was.
'Holy shit! He's so fast already! Cheats! This kid has to be reincarnated with gifts too!' Hyto complained in his mind, as he subconsciously fell back on his Airbending training and moved around the punch like he was a leaf in the breeze.
But before Hyto could internally celebrate managing to dodge a punch from the Yellow Flash himself, he saw Minato effortlessly twist his body midair and send a kick towards his chest, forcing Hyto to get in his Earthbender stance and block with both of his forearms, but still being sent sliding back a few feet while his arms felt numb.
On the other hand, Minato felt like he had just kicked a stone wall with full force, causing his leg to go numb as well. 'He's so hard! Not even father hurts this much when he lets me hit him in our sparing matches!' Minato thought as he hopped back a few feet.
Not wanting to be only defending, Hyto decided to switch to his Waterbending stance and ran towards Minato like he was about to tackle him, only for Hyto to slide at the last second and deliver a clean leg sweep, knocking Minato to the ground, completely stunning him.
Using Minato's moment of surprise against him, Hyto flipped and landed in a mounting position on top of Minato, and threw a Firebending chop towards Minato's neck, but stopped just before the attack landed.
"I guess this is my win then." Hyto said with a smirk, but his smile is hidden by his half mask.
But to Hyto's surprise, Minato hardly reacted, and only stared at him with large sparkling eyes. "Your eyes are so pretty..." Minato said as he stared into Hyto's eyes with his mouth slightly agape.
"Bro, c'mon. There's just some things you don't say to another guy, especially when they're on top of you like this." Hyto said, suddenly very uncomfortable with this 4-year-old.
"What do you mean?" Minato said, confused with a light blush on his cheeks.
"Urgh, nothing. C'mon bro, let's go and get some ramen. I'm starving." Hyto said as he helped Minato up.
As the two walked from the training field, little did they know they were being watched by a few interested adults.
