LET THE CHAPTER BEGIN

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Four days passed just like this, Aki and Naruto had become inseparable at this point. They would be seen together everywhere and sharing both pranks and the punishments.

Today would be a very different day for them as Aki decided to drop the bomb, and add in butterfly effects.

Aki woke up before the sun like usual and secretly trained the Tiny Shadow Clones he had seen Naruto perform; he couldn't quite get them like he wanted yet but was close to success.

"Time to head out," Aki thought out loud as he exited his room, Jonin was already standing outside to take him for a daily pep talk with Hiashi and Hiruzen.

Of course, it failed like it did for the last four days and Aki was finally free and headed to Ichiraku Ramen for both his breakfast and his friend, Naruto Uzumaki.

As Aki approached the familiar ramen stand, the savory aroma of miso soup filled the air. Just as he predicted, there was Naruto, sitting at the counter with an eager grin on his face.

"Oi, Naruto!" Aki called out, approaching with a wave. "Already starting the day with your favorite?"

Naruto turned around, his eyes lighting up at the sight of Aki. "Aki! You bet! It's never too early for ramen!" He motioned to the seat next to him. "Come on, sit down! Let's dig in!"

Aki grinned and took the seat beside him. "Alright, I'll have the usual," he told Teuchi, who nodded in acknowledgment.

Teuchi, with his excellent memory, had Aki's order down after only his second visit. Soon, steaming bowls of ramen were placed before them.

Both boys dived into their ramen with gusto, as if in a competition to see who could eat more. Naturally, if they were competing for real, Naruto would win every time.

'He's crazy about ramen,' Aki thought.

As they finished their meal, Naruto grinned, his eyes gleaming with mischief. "Alright, what's the plan for today? I was thinking we could prank Iruka-sensei again!"

Aki chuckled. "Actually, I've got something different in mind today," he replied with a mysterious grin. "Follow me."

Curiosity piqued, Naruto's enthusiasm didn't wane as he followed Aki out of the ramen shop. However, as they wound their way through the village and ended up at the training ground, Naruto's excitement dampened slightly.

"Training? Now?" Naruto asked, pouting. He had been looking forward to pulling pranks, especially since they had a break from the academy today.

Aki grinned, knowing exactly what Naruto was thinking. "You'll want to see this, Dattebayo!" he said mimicking Naruto whenever he was on about being the Hokage.

Naruto crossed his arms, his eyes narrowing suspiciously. "Alright, alright, what's the deal? You better not be dragging me here just to train."

Aki smirked, clearly enjoying the suspense he was building. "Just watch," he said confidently.

Naruto sighed but nodded, watching as Aki took a deep breath and formed the hand signs he had been practicing for the past few days. His fingers moved quickly and precisely, showing how much effort he had put into this technique.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Aki called out.

A puff of smoke appeared around him and in front of Naruto's stunned eyes, seven perfect Aki's stood. He had decided to come clean today.

Naruto's eyes widened in shock and admiration. "Whoa, that's amazing, Aki! I didn't know you could do that!"

Aki let out a chuckle, dismissing the clones with a wave of his hand. "That's not all," he said with a grin. "There's something important I need to tell you."

Naruto raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "What is it?"

"I'm a Jonin," Aki dropped the bomb, "Also supposed son of the Hyuga clan leader."

Naruto's eyes widened even more. "A Jonin? You? But I thought you were just a regular ninja like me!"

"Don't worry about that, I'm still your friend, aren't I?" Aki asked hoping Naruto was the same as he was in Cannon.

"You bet you are!" Naruto shouted back in reply "Even being the Hokage won't change that fact. Dattebayo!"

Aki sighed in relief, today was the first day he felt fear after his recovery from the traumatic experience with his first mission, a fear of losing his best friend.

"YES!!" Aki shouted back, "We're going to be friends forever."

"Also, if you ever need help, call me over Naruto" Aki grinned foolishly, "I have decided to help you with becoming a better ninja starting today. So, wanna train with me?" he smirked at the end.

Aki chuckled at Naruto's enthusiastic response. "Glad to hear that, Naruto. Now, there's something important I want to do today, a tradition that means a lot to me."

Naruto looked at him curiously. "What tradition?"

He then took out his kunai and pricked his finger lightly, letting a single drop of blood fall into the bowl nearest to him. Afterward, he handed the other bowl to Naruto.

"We mix a drop of blood into the water as a symbol of our bond. This will make us brothers to each other, so from now on, call me 'big brother.'"

Naruto felt the rise of multiple emotions at those words, he finally got someone to lean on, a Big Brother.

Naruto followed Aki's example, carefully pricking his finger with the kunai. "Ouch," he winced slightly as a drop of blood fell into his bowl.

"Now we exchange bowls and drink from them to complete the ceremony," Aki said, handing his bowl to Naruto.

Naruto accepted the bowl with a grin and handed his own bowl to Aki. They exchanged the bowls and took a sip, the ritual marking the deepened bond between them.

Aki smiled warmly. "I'm glad we did this. From now on, you can count on me, no matter what."

Naruto grinned back, his eyes shining with determination. "Same here, Aki! You're my brother now, and I'll always be there for you!"

"Now that we're family, let's start training," Aki said smiling at his newly gained little brother.

"So, what do we do now?" Naruto asked.

"I think we should start with something fundamental," Aki said. "I've noticed your chakra control needs improvement, so let's focus on that first."

"Tell me what to do! Dattebayo!" Naruto shouted with impatience.

"Alright, follow me," Aki said with a grin. He walked over to a nearby tree and placed his feet on the trunk, demonstrating the technique. He began walking up the tree's stem with ease.

Naruto's eyes widened in amazement as he watched Aki effortlessly ascend the tree and find a comfortable spot on one of the branches. Aki looked back down at Naruto. "Want to give it a try?"

'Let's see how Sakura makes fun of you now' Aki thought with a smirk.

"Woah, how did you do that?" Naruto exclaimed in excitement. "That's so cool!"

AAki chuckled, his expression filled with encouragement. "It's all about chakra control. You need to focus your chakra on your feet and connect with the tree like a magnet. That's what keeps you from falling."

Naruto's enthusiasm spiked even higher. "Alright, I'll give it a shot!"

Without Orochimaru's influence, Kurama's seal was intact so he didn't interfere with any part of the training.

Naruto was excited and all, but as you would expect he fell again and again from the tree trying, but he refused to give up.

'If Aki can do it, then I can do it too.' Naruto thought to himself. 'I will never give up'

After a few hours of intense training, Aki decided it was time to move on. "Alright, Naruto, we need to switch it up. We have other training to do too."

Naruto, panting and with dirt smudged on his face, looked up eagerly. "Are you gonna teach me a new ninjutsu?"

"No, something even better," Aki said with a mysterious glint in his eye and a devilish smile on his face.

Naruto's curiosity was piqued. "What is it?"

"It's a secret training technique for Ninjas," Aki said with an extremely serious voice, "Keep it between us brothers ok"

"Secret technique? That's awesome" Naruto's spirit rose and shot through the skies above at those words.

"This technique comes from an ancient clan, a clan whose members were never caught off guard," Aki continued, adding more weight to his words to build tension.

"I was fortunate enough to acquire this scroll during one of my missions. No one else in the world knows about this technique."

"The clan was so powerful that even their weakest member was as strong as the Third Hokage. So, don't share this technique with anyone without my permission."

"Whoa, that's incredible!" Naruto exclaimed. "Did you find out what their name was?"

"I was just getting to that," Aki said. "They were called the Zoldyck clan. And do you know why they perished?"

"Why?" Naruto asked though he was intrigued by both the technique and the story.

"There was a monster that attacked our world, known as Meruem," Aki said, thinking to himself that making up stories was harder than it looked.

"The Zoldycks sacrificed themselves to save the world, or we wouldn't even exist today," Aki's tone grew even more serious, sending waves of excitement through Naruto.

"Come sit here," Aki told Naruto to sit under the tree, which made him confused but still anticipating what they were going to do.

Aki then moved with lightning speed, using his Flash Step to shatter a tree with a powerful kick. He quickly gathered the broken pieces, tied single log pieces to ropes and picked one up.

He carefully set up one of the logs above Naruto's head and made sure it was securely in place. "Hold this rope tightly," Aki said, handing Naruto one end. "If you relax and let go, the log will drop and hit you on the head. This will test your focus and chakra control."

'If Bisky was in Naruto she would kill me for calling her training method Zoldyck clan's.' Aki mused to himself as he thought of the anime with this training method, 'But we have to make powerful techniques associated with powerful clans.'

"How is this supposed to be training?" Naruto asked, clearly skeptical. After all, this training looked nothing special compared to what he did at the academy or just a few hours ago with Aki.

Aki grinned, "The real challenge is maintaining your focus and control even under pressure and distractions. The goal is to hold the rope steady and keep the log from falling. This will push both your mental and physical limits."

Naruto nodded, gripping the rope firmly. he was determined to complete this training successfully and become the best Hokage in the future.

Deciding to increase the difficulty, Aki put his hands on the floor. "Sleeping Jutsu."

Plop

The log hit Naruto in the head as he dozed off as soon as Aki activated his jutsu, realizing the difficulty and now wide awake.

Aki helped Naruto set up the trap once more.

"Naruto, you said you wanted to become Hokage right?" Aki asked with a smile.

"YES, I will be the Hokage someday! Dattebayo!" Naruto replied now even more awake then after he got hit in the head.

Aki's grin widened. "That's the spirit! I believe in you, which is why I'm here to help you."

"Naruto remember 3 rules if you want to be the best ninja, and eventually the Hokage.

The first rule is to never stop training no matter what, you can take a break once a week but that's it. The second rule is to never stop learning no matter how small the technique is.

And third but the most important rule is: NEVER GIVE UP."

As the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky with hues of orange and purple, Aki finally let Naruto stop training for the day. Just as Naruto was about to leave, Aki suddenly charged forward and wrapped him in a tight hug.

Naruto blinked in surprise but quickly relaxed into the embrace, feeling a warmth he hadn't felt in a long time.

Aki released him, a small smile on his face. "I'm going home too," he said softly.

Naruto stood there for a moment, taking it all in. A grin slowly spread across his face as he rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. "You're a weird one, Aki," he said with a laugh, "but thanks… big brother."
