Suddenly, a swirling black vortex appeared in front of Itachi, and a figure wearing a spiral-patterned mask slowly emerged. "Itachi, we need to leave. The higher-ups of Konoha are already on their way here!" The masked man spoke cautiously, his gaze warily landing on Goku. Instinctively, he felt a faint sense of danger emanating from him, which took him by surprise.
Itachi furrowed his brows, glanced at Goku, then nodded. The masked man, still eyeing Goku, said in a calm tone, "I don't know who you are, but you've piqued my interest. I never expected to find someone as powerful as you in this world. However, now is not the time for conversation. I believe we'll meet again in the future."
"Who the hell are you? Talking so arrogantly!" In a flash, Goku appeared in front of the masked man and grabbed him by the throat, lifting him effortlessly into the air. "Listen up, kid, don't get cocky when you're talking to me! Be careful, or I'll kill you right here!"
In truth, the moment Goku saw the masked man, he immediately recognized him. But he acted purely because this guy was the big boss of this world, and beating up a boss was always satisfying.
"Who... exactly are you?" Even the masked man was startled by Goku's overwhelming strength. He hadn't even been able to see Goku's movements, let alone react in time to use his space-time ninjutsu. Before he knew it, he had already been caught.
With a casual flick of his wrist, Goku tossed the masked man to the ground as if he were garbage. Waving his hand dismissively, he said, "You two weaklings, get lost! Don't interfere with my business!"
The masked man was furious at being looked down upon, but considering Goku's strength, he didn't dare act rashly. Itachi, on the other hand, frowned and fixed his gaze on Goku. "What exactly are you planning to do?"
"None of your damn business!" Goku's expression darkened. In an instant, he flashed forward, grabbed Itachi by the ankle, and with a flick of his wrist, hurled him toward the distant horizon.
"You too!" Goku turned toward the masked man, grabbed him by the collar, and, despite the man's shock, flung him high into the sky, sending him flying beyond the borders of the Land of Fire. Whether they could even survive such a flight remained to be seen.
"Now that the nuisances are out of the way, it's time to handle my own affairs." Having just humiliated two of the most formidable figures in the Naruto world, Goku was in an excellent mood. Humming a tune, he strolled toward a nearby house.
As he reached the entrance, he noticed a fainted child lying on the ground. Giving him a light kick, Goku muttered, "Alright, kid, since you're an orphan, I won't pick on you."
Wait… but he just kicked him twice! How is that not picking on him?
Stepping over Sasuke's unconscious body, Goku entered the house. Inside, he found the corpses of Fugaku and Mikoto Uchiha. With a casual kick, he sent Fugaku's body flying aside and picked up Mikoto, admiring her beauty. "Damn, what a gorgeous MILF! Too bad I got here too late. But no worries—even if you've turned to ashes, I can still bring you back! From today onward, you belong to me!"
With a single thought, he stored Mikoto's body inside his World Ring.
Glancing at Fugaku's corpse, Goku chuckled. "You had two talented sons, which means your bloodline must be pretty damn good. So… I'll be taking your eyes!"
Placing his palm against Fugaku's chest, Goku sent a shockwave through his body, forcefully extracting both of his Sharingan eyes. Catching them midair, he stored them in the World Ring as well.
Surveying the corpses scattered across the Uchiha compound, Goku briefly considered collecting more Sharingan to enhance his girls. But after a moment of thought, he dismissed the idea. "Nah, my girls don't need hand-me-downs from dead people. Natural talent is always best. If I want to make them stronger, there are plenty of other ways!"
After looting the area, Goku eventually found a scroll of ninjutsu techniques. But before he could examine it, he sensed multiple strong energy signatures approaching. "Tch, the ANBU and Konoha's higher-ups are almost here. Guess I'll have to bail for now."
With a flicker of his Instant Transmission, Goku vanished from the scene.

A crystal-clear river sparkled under the sunlight as Goku materialized at its bank. With a wave of his hand, several beautiful women appeared around him.
"Goku, are we in another world now?" Saeko and the others looked around curiously.
Goku nodded. "Yeah, this world revolves around ninjutsu. I just got my hands on some ninja techniques, so if any of you are interested, give them a try!" He took out the scroll and slowly unrolled it.
"Ninjutsu? I'd love to see what it's all about!" Saeko's eyes gleamed with excitement as she and the other girls gathered around. Being Japanese, they naturally had a deep fascination with ninja arts.
The scroll covered a broad range of topics, from chakra refinement to practical ninjutsu applications, including some basic techniques. However, Goku didn't find the one jutsu he was most interested in.
"Looks like I'll have to pay the Third Hokage a visit," Goku mused, stroking his chin before diving into his own study of chakra refinement.
For someone like Goku, refining chakra was child's play. His body already housed an immense amount of ki, which was essentially a refined life force. By following the chakra refinement method and integrating his mental energy, he could seamlessly convert his ki into massive reserves of chakra.
Within just half an hour, Goku had already mastered his first jutsu.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Jutsu!"
A massive fireball erupted from Goku's mouth, crashing into a dense forest in the distance. Instantly, flames engulfed the trees, turning the entire area into an inferno.
The girls were left speechless, staring at the raging fire in shock.
Goku scratched his head, looking innocent. "I swear, I only used a tiny bit of chakra! I didn't think it'd be this strong! I wasn't trying to start a forest fire, I swear!"
Burning down forests wasn't exactly a good thing. So, to make up for it, Goku decided to try out another jutsu—Water Release: Water Dragon Jutsu!
A massive water dragon surged forth, drenching the entire forest. The fire was extinguished, but the sheer force of the technique left the once-green forest in ruins.
Still, Goku gained a hefty amount of energy points from the destruction. Looks like plenty of wildlife—and possibly a few unfortunate people—didn't make it out alive.
"Guess I really need to learn proper chakra control… Otherwise, even a small jutsu could wipe out an entire city. That'd be way too inconvenient!" Shrugging, Goku resumed his ninjutsu training with the girls.
As night fell, Goku stored the girls back into his World Ring and Instant Transmissioned to a rooftop in Konoha, staring at the Hokage's office beneath the great Hokage Rock.
With another instant transmission, he disappeared.
Inside the office, the Third Hokage was peeping into his crystal ball, watching a bathhouse full of beautiful, mature women.
Goku suddenly appeared behind him, peering into the crystal ball as well. "Damn! All of them are MILFs! Never expected you to have such refined taste, old man!"
"Of course, mature women are the best—wait, who's there?!" The Third Hokage jumped in shock, realizing someone had snuck up on him without him noticing.
"Hey, no need to be nervous," Goku said with a grin. "I'm not here to cause trouble. I just have a small favor to ask."
"A favor?" The Third Hokage narrowed his eyes in suspicion. For someone to sneak into the Hokage's office unnoticed, they were definitely not ordinary.
"Would you mind lending me a look at your Scroll of Seals?" Goku asked directly.
The Third Hokage's expression darkened. "The Scroll of Seals? I'm sorry, but that is one of Konoha's most forbidden scrolls. It cannot be shared with outsiders. I must ask you to leave."
"'Forbidden scroll,' huh?" Goku scoffed. "C'mon, old man, don't be so stingy. I really don't have any bad intentions. If I wanted to take it by force, trust me—there's no one in this world who could stop me."
"If you want the Scroll of Seals…" The Third Hokage took a deep breath and steeled himself. "Then you'll have to step over my dead body first!"
Goku smirked. "Well, if you insist on getting your ass kicked, who am I to refuse?"
In an instant, he appeared in front of the Third Hokage and delivered a single punch to his abdomen.
"Ugh—!"
The old man crumpled to his knees, clutching his stomach as intense pain twisted his face. Just one punch—and he was completely incapacitated.
Goku crouched beside him. "Damn, old man, you went down fast. Are you sure you're the Hokage?"
The Third Hokage stared up at Goku in shock. Had he really become this weak? Or was this man simply far too powerful?
"My name's son Goku," he said casually. "Like I said, I have no ill intentions. I just want to learn a jutsu from the Scroll of Seals. If I really wanted to steal it, there's nothing you or anyone else could do to stop me. But I'd rather not cause trouble—I plan to stay in Konoha for a while, and I'd rather keep things peaceful."
The Third Hokage lowered his head in deep thought. The strength Goku displayed was beyond comprehension. Even someone like him, who had once fought the Nine-Tails, had been one-shot like it was nothing. The power gap was too enormous.
If letting Goku see the scroll would prevent a potential disaster, then so be it.
After a long silence, the Third Hokage finally nodded.
"Follow me."
He led Goku to a secret chamber, dismissing the ANBU guards before unlocking a massive steel door. From within, he retrieved an enormous scroll and handed it to Goku. "This is the Scroll of Seals. I trust that you will keep your word and return it when you're done."
"Of course," Goku replied, grinning. "I always keep my promises."
Unrolling the scroll, the first jutsu he saw made his eyes light up with excitement—
Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu!
"This is exactly what I came for!" Goku quickly memorized the technique before flipping through the rest of the scroll.
As he scanned the contents, several familiar and infamous jutsu caught his attention—
Dead Demon Consuming Seal. Eight Gates Release. Reanimation Jutsu.
However, none of these were of much use to him. But then, he came across two jutsu that piqued his interest:
1. Kekkei Genkai Extraction Jutsu – A forbidden technique that could extract a person's bloodline ability and transfer it to another. However, the success rate was low, and the process had severe side effects, which was why it had been classified as a forbidden jutsu.
2. Chimera Jutsu – A far more powerful technique, first seen in Naruto Shippuden: The Will of Fire. This jutsu allowed the user to fuse with other ninja or summoned beasts, gaining their abilities—including Kekkei Genkai. If one absorbed five different Kekkei Genkai, they could become an immortal, perfect ninja.
"Now these are interesting!" Goku muttered, making sure to memorize both jutsu. "Might come in handy later."
With that, he rolled up the scroll and handed it back to the Third Hokage. The old man let out a quiet sigh of relief.

Back in the Hokage's office, Goku got straight to the point. "Alright, old man, get me some temporary residency papers for Konoha. It's my first time here, and I want to take a good look around."
The Third Hokage frowned, clearly reluctant. But, as the saying goes:
If trouble comes, you can't avoid it. You just have to deal with it.
And with Goku's power, keeping him happy was in Konoha's best interest.
"Fine," the Hokage sighed, signing off on eleven temporary residence permits.
"Appreciate it!" Goku waved the papers at him before adding, "Oh, and if you ever run into trouble, just hit me up—I don't mind helping out."
With that, he vanished in an Instant Transmission.
---
As Goku strolled through the village streets, he pondered his next steps.
Where should I stay? How do I spend my time here?
Just as he was thinking about these things, he noticed a small figure sitting alone in a deserted alley.
A young boy, resting his chin in his hands, staring blankly into space. His messy blond hair, the whisker-like birthmarks on his cheeks, his frail frame—he was only about six or seven years old.
Even without context, Goku instantly recognized him.
Naruto Uzumaki.
Approaching with a grin, Goku crouched down beside him. "Hey, kid. What are you doing out here all alone? It's getting dark."
Naruto blinked, momentarily startled before perking up at the sight of someone actually talking to him. His bright blue eyes lit up with excitement.
"I'm Naruto! Naruto Uzumaki! And I'm gonna be the next Hokage!" he declared proudly, puffing out his chest.
Goku chuckled. "'Naruto'… huh? Sounds like 'One who rises above all.' Not a bad name. Who knows? Maybe one day, you will become Hokage."
Naruto's eyes widened. "Wait… You're not laughing at me? Everyone else does when I say that…"
Goku smirked, ruffling the kid's hair. "Why would I laugh? If that's your dream, then all you have to do is make it happen. Anyone who laughs at you is just too weak to understand what true determination is."
For a moment, Naruto just stared at him—then suddenly grinned from ear to ear.
Goku didn't know it yet, but that single encounter would change Naruto's fate forever.
