Later that Night

Endo could be seen holding three scrolls, and thinking about what transpired earlier. Curious to what he needs to be proficient and use his Taijutsu, he asks

'Eden, what are the requirements of Re-Taekwondo'

'Probably should get to learning the Jutsu'

Endo puts the two ninja scrolls down

[Would user like to like E-Rank: Clone technique]

Yes or No

'Yes'

[Skill added]

Endo then does the same with the two others, and once that's done, he thinks about using the clone technique and does the correct procedure making his chakra shape like his body. A poof could be heard, and a similar looking boy with white hair, and onyx colored eyes could be seen looking at his original. They both put their right hand up, then their left, and finally they do rock, paper scissors, before Endo disperses the clone.

[Clone technique gained 1 level]

'They have levels?'

[All skills have levels] Edens said sarcastically.

'...mean' Endo then tries the other 2, and they also gained a level. Endo plays around with his first ninjutsu since coming to his world for a couple of hours until he has some basic things discovered and established.

Ninjutsu skills at E-rank go up to 10.

Not all E-rank are designed to level up the same

Getting higher levels in Jutsu decreases not only chakra usage, but hand sign usage.

After a couple more minutes playing around with the jutsu Endo decides he is tired of hurting from his 'Broken' Status so he goes to bed hoping that no one challenges him to another fight.

A week later

After recovering, and waiting a week Endo decided to talk to Naruto about his training. When Naruto was fighting Sasuke, and then the orphanages Naruto seeming seemed out of place with him, and even though he has a system taking himself out of the fight, the leader would've easily squashed Naruto. So he was thinking of training Naruto, but knowing the idiot this is something he could never accomplish unless it was extremely simple. Endo also wanted the multi shadow clone jutsu, so he could've let Naruto raise to high, and actually preform well. So taijutsu, and sparing practice it is.

Endo arrives at the academy waiting for the Jinchuriki to show up until he hears a loud boy yelling through the hall with screams, and yelling seemingly after his. Endo sees naruto open the door, but instead of normal, he sees him get pummeled by the girls following him. After a couple of minutes they're done and the final result is a lump on his head the size of a golf ball which was the by-product of Sakura Haruno. Who is only useful berating Naruto and fantasizing Sasuke at this point of time. Endo walks up to Naruto and crouches down poking him like he is checking if he is dead. He got slightly out of kilter and bumps into another head lighty

"Uhh..i'm sor-"

"Sorry Endo-kun, I was just worried about Naruto, and wanted to check up on him." A shy girl with purple hair and pupiless eyes apologizes, and gives the smallest hint of a smile.

"It's ok Hinata, It's probably my fault" Endo gets up while picking up Naruto who is now confused about how he got to the classroom. He gets out of Endo's grasp and puts him face to face with the now standing Hinata.

"Oh hi Hinata, when'd you get there?" Naruto smiles, and causes Hinata to blush and almost pass out. She staggers back afraid to speak and almost falls but not before being caught by Endo. He put on her feet.

"Are you ok Hinata" Endo who is kinda jealous of the situation.

"Mhm" Hinata simply replies, still too embarrassed from being so close to her crush Naruto. She nods her head as her goodbye and walks back to her seat kinda sickly if Endo were to guess.

'I wish I had a girl falling for me like that' Endo says as he cries internally. Some moments like this remind him that he is different from everyone here. He knows how things happen, and how people are. He knows that he's actually an 18 year old, stuck in the body of a 7 year old. He knows that he had a whole life back on his earth. Endo gets out of that thought process, and walks back to his desk, while Naruto on his curtails. He sits down, and lays his head down so that class to start totally too annoyed to ask Naruto if he wanted guidance with his taijutsu. The rest of class comes in, but unlike how Iruka usually starts, there's someone else that comes.

'Observe'

Mizuki

HP - 250,000/250,000

CP - 16,000/16,000

He is stronger than you.

Endo notices Mizuki but pretends to not care as he was annoyed about his jealousy. He watches as Mizuki goes infront of all of the students and introduces himself.

"Hey class, my name is Mizuki, and I'm here to assist my long time friend Iruka Sensei. I am also a shinobi, and I hope we can get along." Endo is very intrigued as he sees slivers of hate peek through the ending. 'I know he isn't a good person but Jesus, what's his deal?' Endo thought.

Iruka then comes in, and introduces the already introduced Mizuki-Sensei, and goes on with the lecture, he ends the class with reminding us about practicing and establishing a good base for each of the 3 Jutsu we got. Before they are about to leave, Endo tells Naruto.

" Hey, I gotta talk to you about something, you down for the park later?"

"Heck yeah, is it serious?" Naruto asks Endo.

"No, well more for you than for me." Endo plainly replies, and sees Naruto dumbfounded as he wasn't sure what to do. Class ends and he attempts to make his way to Hinata, but not being able to get it perfectly 'accidentally' he calls out.

"Hinata-san"

Hinata turns around and sees Endo waving at her, motioning her to come closer. She goes to see what he wants.

"What can I do for you Endou-kun" Hinata says shyly.

"I have a question that I'd like you to answer"

"Sure.." Hinata replies

"Why do you like Naruto? You don't have to hide it with me, I won't tell him I'm just curious" Endo looks at Hinata, which makes her slightly uncomfortable, which already started happening when he revealed her crush to her. She thinks awhile, before saying

"When I was a kid, I got lost in winter, and He helped me. Some boys were picking on me, and he came to save me like a knight in shing armor. I know it's silly, but I like him for that, and what he continues to be. Naruto is kind, and compassionate." Hinata's blush intensifies as she goes through her memories, and her opinion about the Yellow-haired boy.

Endo nods, and thanks Hinata for her time. Without a response he leaves, and thinks about how to teach Naruto Taijutsu.

'Maybe we should just spar and have him get a solid base, until he learns what type of fighting he wants to incorporate.' Endo then goes to the park a little earlier than the agreed upon time, and goes up a tree, and thinks about what Hinata says. He feels better about the ridiculous situation, and decides to leave them be. He knew that he didn't like Hinata, but could never really understand why one of the more influential people in Konoha fell in love with Naruto. Now hearing the reason, he still thinks it was dumb but what can he do, and even if could do something he didn't want too. Moving on, Endo thinks once more about training but this time his.

'With the monthly rewards from the daily mission I would be able to fully use my taijutsu in about 2 years. For now I should just focus on continuing my chakra control training.' Endo then heard a pop.

'Notifications'

'Ok….' Endo thought about what it could be before he heard

"Oi Endo, where are you?" Naruto shouts, and behind him are Shikamaru, and Choji. Endo then jumps off the tree, and backflips spinning twice before landing with his arms doing the signature Shikamaru pose. Endo looks at the two kids accompanying Naruto, before Naruto interrupts his thought process.

"Endo, you said you wanted to talk."

"Yeah, I wanted to ask if you wanted me to help you with Taijutsu. Also why are you here Shika?" Endo ended the question looking at Shikamaru with a raised brow, before looking at Naruto to see what he said.

"OH YEAH, PLEASE TEACH ME TAIJUTSU ENDO, I WANT TO BEAT SASUKE!!!!! DATTEBAYO" Naruto yelled while pumping his hands and circling the three of them.

"OK, and the other part" Endo replied

"Oh yeah they asked if they could come with Choji wanted to see if another epic battle would happen, and Shikamaru had nothing to do." Naruto grinned. Endo seeing Choji nod as he continued to eat chips and Shikamaru look Disinterested with the conversation, decided to ignore them, and continued to focus on Naruto.

'How hard could this be?' Endo then motioned Naruto to get closer.

"OK Naruto, since you're worse than most, we will be going with the tried and tested method. The fist of love" Endo smirked when He saw Naruto confused.

"That sounds pretty girly Endo, are you sure it's for me?" Naruto said with a concerned look

"Yes this is the fastest way for someone like you"

"Are you ready?" Endo said, and as soon as he saw Naruto give confirmation, Endo disappeared and punched Naruto in the head while holding back which resulted in Naruto falling.

"Ouch, Endo why did you do that! You were supposed to be training me, not fighting me." Naruto whined.

"This is my method of training you, it's called the fist of love " Endo. Naruto gulped, and without another moment passing Endo slowly kicked Naruto, and then tried to attempt an axe kick to get Naruto moving. Naruto, not wanting to get hit again, rolled then completely stood up and started running to Endo pulling back his fist in an obvious attempt at a punch. When Naruto got close, Endo deflected, and Jabbed Naruto's shoulder successfully. He then Stepped on Naruto's foot, and chopped Naruto's head. Naruto fell down again, but this time it was a crouch with his hands on his head.

"Endo. Can't you just show me how you did those kicks, and that special move you did with Sasuke. Is there something easier?" Naruto whined once more, and Endo hearing this plopped down, and stared at Naruto.

"I wish there was Naruto" Endo then put his hand on Naruto's shoulder, and then continued.

"What does strong mean to you Naruto?" Endo sincerely asked, and awaited a response.

"GiGi is strong, he is regarded as the best shinobi of our time. Remember what Iruka-Sensei said." Naruto immediately answered. Endo then shook his head, and got up.

"I want your definition of being strong Naruto."

"Now get up, and let's try this again with me trying to help." Endo made a basic stance, and waited. Naruto got up, and just stood.

"Naruto try copying my stance until you find something that fits you" Endo guided Naruto with every punch he gave and received. Asking Naruto questions on why he chose to take this action instead of another. Endo advised him to create a variety, and keep all of his actions sporadic since strategy doesn't work with Naruto. After 2 hours of slowly fighting, Endo asked

Naruto to have one real spar. Endo got Choji to referee this time, and with the drop of the rock signifying the start of the match, Naruto runs as per usual but this time kicks Endo, and then spins into a wild punch that almost connected. Endo blocked it with knee and then dashes back as he wanted to see Naruto's progress. Naruto thinking that Endo is finally tasting his own medicine runs like a amateur throw a weak punch . All three of the kids saw this facepalm, especially Endo.

'This might be harder than I thought' Endo Inwardly sighed, and dashed behind Naruto and gave him his training technique's special move "Punch of Banishment", and punched Naruto on the head, leading to Naruto rolling around clutching his head

"Ow,Ow,Ow,Ow,Ow,Ow." Naruto yelped while flailing around. After a minute of rolling, Naruto sat up with a betrayed look on his face.

"Why did you hit me so hard?"

"Cause you're dumb. What did we spend the past two hours doing?" Endo glared at Naruto.

"...Teaching me the best course of winning?" Naruto hesitated

Endo then punched Naruto's head, again.

"Try again" Endo sighed

"Teaching me the best course of attack!" Naruto pumped his air to celebrate remembering.

"And what was the last attack?" Endo questioned. Naruto, thinking for a couple of minutes, realized his mistake.

"Hehe, sorry Endo I was excited" Naruto rubbed his head with a wide grin on his face.

"Whatever, let's try this again.." Endo and Naruto then start another spar, with Naruto getting punished for the same mistake as last time. Fought once more with Naruto still not getting it, and Endo decided to give up for the day. They agreed that Naruto would practice by himself, and they will check his progress. Before they went to leave.

"Hey Endo, can we spar?" Shikamaru asked.

"Why?" Endo questioned, and was wonderin what the young clan leader was planning.

"Cause I want to see how far you are from me." Shikamaru replied without the slightest hesitation, and So Endo nodded with suspicion. They got set up with Naruto as the ref this time. He three the rock up and as soon as it fell, Shikamaru walked away.

"Shikamaru, where are you going" Endo asked

"I'm going home, wanna come? My mom asked me to bring some friends today. She says that I can't only hang out with Choji. What a drag." Shikamaru sighed. After thinking about the pros and cons, Endo nodded. Naruto looked a little down, because he wasn't invited and he knew that he would be allowed to enter there after pranking all of the Nara by painting the trees yellow. THey all said goodbye, with Naruto and Choji going their own way, and Endo following Shikamaru. They went to the edge of the village towards the east, and made their way to the Nara clan. THe guards were alerted by the young child with white hair contrasting his eyes, but once they saw their future clan leader, they let them pass. After a couple of minutes of walking, viewing the venison, and smelling the sweet scents of the medicine the Nara were known for making for the Akimichi clan, they finally arrived at the biggest house that Endo has ever seen, and before it would be a huge forest. Shikamaru knocked on the door, and went inside. Endo, following the boy inside the house, saw a barren place with little to no decoration, furniture, or even supplies. He saw that the layout contained at least on Bathroom, 2 bedrooms, and a kitchen which further down led to a deck leading to a porch and a forest beyond that. Endo after spending a couple of minutes in the house felt naturally at peace, something that didn't usually happen. ENdo closed his eyes, only to be nudged and once He opened them again he stared at the Shikamaru who nudged him.

Shikamaru saw Endo's eyes, which were completely engulfed by a seemingly blakc void, creeped out, but before he had a chance to rationalize what was happening Endo's eyes returned to normal. 'Weird,' Shikamaru thought. He was gonna bring it up with his father, but he would just ignore it for now.

"C'mon, my mom is outside with my father." Shikamaru said as he led Endo to where his parents reside. They made their way there, and Shikamaru introduced Endo.

"See mother I have friends"

"This is Endo"

"Endo this is my parents. My father is the clan head if you didn't know." Shikamaru sighed, and sat between the two of them.

Endo looked at Shikamaru, the person he knows as Shikamaru's mother, Yoshiro Nara, his supposed aunt, and somehow she felt familiar. Looking away in order to not be rude, Endo looked at Shikaku, Shikamaru's father, and his supposed Uncle, and nodded.

"Hello, I'm Endo, and I go to the same class as Shikamaru, thank you for having me."

He first looked at Shikaku, who had a pleased but disinterested expression, and like the demeanor he showed, he just nodded. Endo then looked at Yoshiro, and he saw that she had tears in her eyes. He also noticed the smile, and look of melancholy that she had. Almost like she was seeing a ghost. Shikamaru noticed this , and asked

"Mom, are you ok?"

Yoshiro then wiped her tears, and looked sternly at her child.

"Yes, Shikamaru, your father and I want to talk to your friend, can you please make tea and bring it out. Be careful, I have something cooking. I hope I made enough for all of us. You will be joining us right Endo?" Yoshiro said while smiling gleefully, instantly erasing her crestfallen expression. Shikamaru did as his mother told him to but not without a reluctant sigh until he was out of ear shot.

"So we are related, and I am presuming that Shikamaru doesn't know. I wanted to let you know that I am not trying to use him or anything. I am just trying to improve so I can become strong," Endo plainly stated. Looking at SHikaku, he had a serious face. He stared at the boy thinking about his claim. Endo saw Shikaku laugh heartily, which confused both Endo, and Yoshiro. Yoshiro, being confused as to what her husband was thinking, thought about Endo's wish of becoming strong as it reminded her of her brother Toshiro.

"So bold to assume we hold those thoughts towards you Endo. I don't think you would be hear if that was the case." Shikaku once more jovially laughed, and then sighed and thought 'So he's not an idiot like his father, must take after his mother. His will was definitely inherited by that dead fool though. Must be why his eyes are like that.' Shikaku thought inwardly about the current situation seeing how his wife would handle things. Afterall, this is more important to her than it is to him.

"You remind me of your father" Yoshiro reminisced, for a pause then continued.

"He wanted that as well, Endo, though your mother may influence everything else. No way to tell." Yoshiro once more let out a tear before scooching over and putting a hand on Endo's shoulder.

"Thank you for being friends with your cousin." Yoshiro smiled through the pain she thought she lost when she realized she would never see her brother again.

"No problem." Endo nodded, not wanting to make Yoshiro sad. Shikamaru appeared shortly after and the conversations moved to when Shikamaru was a baby, and his embarrassing tales. Shikamaru was shy, but also troubled by the feelings that he had. His embarrassment was bothersome. After continuing the conversation, Yoshiro checked and realized that dinner was ready, so she called all of them in. Endo noticed that Shikaku was a quiet person, and he didn't have much to say if nothing interesting was directed to him. They finished eating and realized that it was too late.

"Come back in a couple of days, I wanna see if you are anything good with playing Shogi, you can play against Shikamaru, and then go against me. Have a good night Endo." Shikaku yawned

"Okay I will later, Have a nice night, tell Shika that I'll see him tomorrow." Endo waived, and started making his way home. Once he got there he went straight to bed.
