...
Naruto kept his eyes on the figure in the mirror. When he moved a hand, the image in the mirror did the same. When he stuck out his tongue, the image did the same. When he made a mock face, the image did the same.
"Eww, ugly bastard."
He felt stunned. Wait, that was my voice?
Feeling disgusted, Naruto stopped fooling around.
"What the hell is that? Even my height changed." That last was noticeable. Naruto was already shorter than his classmates, and now being the perfect copy of one of them, he realized it.
"Why am I so short?! This can't be!" He was complaining about it, but when he looked again at the image in the mirror, he felt disgusted.
"Is this the face his mother kissed? Poor lady, it must be difficult to have such an ugly child," he said with malice.
I'd better stop looking at the mirror; it's disgusting.
Taking off his shirt, he could see it. The proportions of this body were really different from his own; his skin felt different, and this body had no scars.
Lucky bastard.
The only thing that was different was his clothes. But after a few moments looking around, Naruto felt awkward. How could he return to his own body?
Returning to the living room, he grabbed the book again.
"Hey, book. You gave me this thing, how I could dispel it?"
But the book didn't respond to that.
"Hey! I can't go out looking like this!"
As if the book was listening all the time, he oponed himself and a page with new content appeared in front of him.
[It is your own chakra. Just think about it, and you can feel the seams. To break them, just think about it and move your chakra into that part. Imagine your chakra as scissors; that would be easy. Do it fast; if you delay, it will hurt a lot.]
'It will hurt a lot?' When has this bastard given me something that didn't hurt me?
Resigning himself, he began to think about it.
Sending his mind into his inner self, he could see it; in the center, he could see a mist of mahogany red energy. Every time he saw it, he felt proud. These were the results of his efforts.
The mist dispersed over his whole body, and he could see it. On his chest, abdomen, and the articulations of his limbs were the seams.
...How was I supposed to cut all this shit fast? I could barely do two things at the same time! Perhaps... I could replace the real one?
Thinking like a doppelganger, Naruto continued thinking of all kinds of excuses not to dispel the Jutsu. Only the casting hurt like hell, and now he needed to cut all these seams?
"Uf, let's do this, if this hurt so much, next time I will beat his ass."
Sitting cross-legged again, he started to mold his chakra like small scissors. Making it flow through his whole body was easy, but trying to give it a shape? He hadn't been able to try it until now.
I have until tomorrow. I couldn't go to school looking like this bastard.
He started trying to give a shape nearby the seams, but it was hard. The amount of chakra was being taken every time to maintain the Jutsu working. Instead of continuing to do it the hard way, he retreated his gaze and started to do it in the mist.
The mist was moving all the time, but it wasn't difficult to move; giving it a shape was the hard part.
Time passed quickly and soon was midday, he had difficulty to give it the shape, but he knew that in a few hours he could do it.
Hungry from not eating all day, he went to the kitchen and took a package of instant ramen. He ate fast and rested for a bit before he continued with the hard work.
He didn't want to take a shower; maybe seeing more of this bastard's body would give him trauma.
After less than an hour, he returned to the living room and continued with the dispel.
The scissor had already taken form, but making the action of cutting was still hard, as if they were rusty.
Did I do something wrong? Mmm.
Stopping for a moment, he went to his room and looked for some scissors.
He found them after he checked his backpack.
These looked the same as the shape I gave it... No, when I cut with these, they had different parts moving at the same time. Was that the thing I was missing?
Back in the living room, Naruto now had a clear objective.
He disassembled the scissors he made with the mist and started to try to create each one of the parts. This was far more difficult; the way he was doing it was like creating all the scissors from the beginning.
Yeah, it made sense. If I continued like that, I couldn't do it even if I stayed the whole day.
A few hours later, he finally was able to create most of the parts at the same time.
"Uf, now follow the last part. Assemble this, or it will never work."
This step didn't take him long to do; less than an hour later he could do it.
Andddd that's it.
Putting the bolt in the middle of the scissors he made it. Chakra Scissors was able to use.
The next step was created other scissors and control it at the same time to cut the seams.
One hour later, he made it. It was less than five hours until the end of the day.
"Good! now, let's count again how many there were. 1...3...6...10...14..." Naruto fell silent.
Oh God, this will hurt... It was awesome, but I don't like the pain.
He started to remember where every point was to do it fast. When he was sure he couldn't do it faster, he stopped and rested for a while.
Taking a deep breath, he wanted to start from the bottom.
Uf, let's do this. I can. This would be easy for a genius like me.
...That was what he said, but the moment he cut both points on his ankles, he felt it:
This hurt much more than when he cast the Jutsu.
His whole body was trembling in pain, and he couldn't control his legs.
Ten minutes later, he stopped trembling, and now from his feet up to his knees was his own body. But he could feel it: if he took too long to cut the other seams, they would dissolve, and this time it would be dangerous.
"Stupid book... I couldn't believe others at school could endure this. There's no way."
In fact, no one in school did these things, but he didn't know.
Blowing a cold breath, Naruto resumed his posture.
"Let's do it, Naruto, you can endure this and more." Like singing a mantra, Naruto kept repeating these words until he did it again.
Seeing once more inside his body, he saw it: the seams were unstable. If he didn't hurry, the pain would be much worse than before.
This time, he was back against the wall to avoid moving when he did it.
Moving his mind, the scissors cut once again. But they didn't stop; he continued until he cut another five besides the knees.
Only 5 remained.
The pain was worse, but this time he was prepared and had a towel in his mouth to avoid screaming. It was already night, and he didn't want to attract attention.
"Huf..huf..huff... there's little left..." Convincing himself with those words, he continued moving the scissors to do it again.
"Now!"
Saying that, the scissors were moving quickly and didn't stop until only one seam remained.
This time Naruto couldn't handle the scream. His whole body felt in pain and the worst part was his chest. Signs of internal trauma can be seemed in the surface of his skin.
With the scream came the cry. He had never experienced that pain; the first ones were bearable, but the moment he cut the last three that connected his arms, he almost fainted. But that wasn't the worst part: he fell unconscious for a few seconds the moment he cut the one that was in the chest.
Regaining consciousness, tears wouldn't stop flowing from his eyes.
"Uh...I would never do this shit again...I swear, you damn book..."Speaking through tears, he sat down again.
The moment he saw the one who remain, his eyes started to shake.
If I died doing this, I'm going to shit on that book.
A vicious curse sounded in Naruto's mind, and as if the book could hear that, it moved a bit and hid in the blanket.
Naruto didn't wait and he did it the moment he sat once again.
Oh shit...
Was his last thought when he fell unconscious, and with that, the rest of his body returned to his own.
The first attempt was an unprecedented success, but the pain he needed to go through was the punishment for his recklessness.
Naruto remained unconscious all night.
-----|-----|-----|------|------|-----|-----|-----
The next day, at 6:30 A.M.
Naruto awoke and recovered his senses.
"Hiss... what happened? I was cutting the seams and... Ah."
He realized. The moment he cut the last one, a pain more intense than all the others ran through his whole body.
Even remembering that scared him.
Trying to get up, he felt his whole body in pain. There was no spot on his body that was intact.
The worst part was the sites where the seams had been yesterday. Bruises could be seen in all those places; the only movement he made to get up caused the pain to return.
Gathering his strength, he stood up and slowly moved towards the sofa. Every step was painful, so he stayed in his place without moving a finger.
"Hey, stupid book. Take responsibility for my situation, or at least give me a method to heal this. I couldn't get out in this state."
The book moved forward and opened again.
[I thought it would be easy for you, and I was right. You really made it on your first try. Congratulations, Naruto.]
"Hehe, of course! I'm a genius! You know... Hey!" In the middle of his words, he realized.
"I don't need your congratulations; give me something to heal this!"
[Sure, just softly move your chakra in the affected areas and in a few days you will be healed. But this consumed a lot of energy, so, find a way to get food if you wanted to get out of this situation]
Following his instructions, Naruto felt an immediate relief. He kept doing it until it was 15 minutes to 8.AM and the pain was almost gone.
"Uf, it felt better. Remember to warn me next time if something like this could happen."
The book remained in silence under the blanket.
Taking a snack from the refrigerator, Naruto was ready to go to school.
"Byebye, see you in the afternoon." Waving his hand, Naruto left the house.
Taking his time and walking slowly to school, Naruto continued eating his snack. He remembered that today Iruka-sensei would teach them about chakra.
'I wonder if it would be different or if it would be the same as the book taught me.'
When he arrived at school, he couldn't see other kids; everyone was already in their classrooms.
Mmm I was late, anyways.
Following the path to his classroom he noticed that it was in silence, he couldn't hear Iruka's voice.
Where was everyone? Perhaps...
He continued walking until he arrived at a big hall. Near the gate, he could hear Iruka's voice and his classmates.
Opening the door, Naruto entered the room, and everyone turned their gaze to him.
"Morning, Iruka-sensei" Ignoring others, Naruto greeted Iruka.
"You were late, Naruto."
"Mm, I'm sorry. Something went wrong with my practice, and I couldn't get out on time."
"Fine, take a seat and listen with your classmates," Iruka replied in a calm voice.
Naruto continued his way and took a seat to the side, apart from others.
Seeing that, Iruka resumed the lesson.
"As I was talking, this year you were learning about the Will of Fire and the heroes of our village. It's important to honor their memory, we are here in this place because of them.
The last subject of the year is learning how to protect the Will of Fire each of you possess. For that, from now on, I will teach you about chakra."
He stopped for a moment, looking at the kids' reactions. When he was sure everyone was listening, he continued.
"Chakra is a combination of two energies that every life form possesses. The amount depends on each one, but everyone has chakra. However, that doesn't mean common people can use it. No, to use chakra, you need a special training to mix the energies you've already learned about. It isn't hard to do, since the Sage of Six Paths gave us chakra, we have the ability to use it as long as the talent is sufficient.
You can come to this school because you have the talent. Now, do it as the practice instructed: Close your eyes, cross your legs, and put your hands together. Feel your inner self and perceive the energies within it. You need to sense the proportion of both to be able to mix them. The first time might be difficult, but after that, this will become like an instinct for you.
If someone has a problem doing it, tell me, and I will help you."
Naruto had thought that Iruka would tell them other things today, not that. He had already learned it from the lessons, but seeing everyone start doing it, he followed the example.
With all his training, it didn't take him long to do it. A few moments later, he felt it: Chakra was formed inside his body, but it felt weird.
This Chakra could flow through his body, but he could feel that it felt much weaker than the other he did with the Book's method.
The chakra he refined with this method felt weak and light, like it would disappear with a breath.
It didn't even have a core; it just ran wildly through his body. The only merit this chakra could have was the amount of it; he could feel an inexhaustible amount.
Naruto didn't know what to think. It was too easy and he didn't need to do all the things he had passed through to refine chakra with the Book's method.
While Naruto was confused about that, everyone in the room could feel it. Something big was pressing down on everyone.
In Iruka's perception, Naruto's body released chakra in all directions as if it were never going to end. This child clearly had a monstrous amount of chakra. Iruka couldn't forget that. This chakra had a faint sense of the Nine-Tails.
With sweat running down his neck, Iruka approached Naruto.
"Naruto, you did it?"With his voice trembling, Iruka asked Naruto.
"Mm, I just closed my eyes, and this thing basically formed itself.
Iruka-sensei, is it always so easy? I did it on the first try. I thought this would be more difficult." With a confused gaze, Naruto asked Iruka. He thought that everyone needed to go to the river or do hard training for it.
"Well, isn't it that easy for everyone? You have a lot of talent, I guess. Now you can train for yourself. If you have a question, ask me after class." Saying this, Iruka stepped back and returned to his seat. But his shaking hands couldn't hide the fear he felt.
Naruto kept his eyes on Iruka's back. He could feel it: Iruka-sensei's chakra was weak, and the amount was minuscule. He remained deep in thought. Was the only thing you needed to learn chakra to feel a bit of your inner self, and that's all? Why did Iruka's chakra feel so weak? Was I wrong doing the things the book told me?
Shaking his head, he denied the last thought.
'No, I went through so many things just to do it. I need to ask this to Ego.'
With that in mind, Naruto stopped the Iruka's method and instead do the Ego's method.
When he did that, Iruka felt it. The amount the kid had was being slowly dispersed.
What the hell was wrong with him? Was he still human, or just a giant fox making fun of us?
The other kids felt terrified. They had never seen that amount of chakra, and the feeling it conveyed was heavy.
Ino, Kiba, Sakura, and the other kids who always made fun of Naruto felt it deeply. Only when the chakra began to converge, could they breathe.
They looked at each other and saw the same feeling: Fear.
Now they understood why their fathers had always told them not to get close to him. They took it as a joke and always mocked him, but from now on, that wouldn't be the same.
Moving to the other side with their friends, they remained silent.
The others in the room were the same; even Shikamaru and Shino, who were always the calmest, couldn't pretend that nothing had happened.
'What are you supposed to be, Naruto?' Shikamaru continued thinking about it. His shadow was trembling all the time, but he approached Ino and Choi and took them with him. When the Ino–Shika–Chō Trio formed again, Shikamaru told his friends:
"Chōji, Ino. I always tell both of you not to bother Naruto, but only Chōji followed my advice. I don't want you to be against him. You could see that he has something weird on his body, but it seems that he doesn't know about it. If you can, befriend him; if not, ignore his existence." Shikamaru said it all at once.
"Shikamaru, you know that I didn't want problems. I won't bother him without a reason. Maybe later we could befriend him, but not now," Chōji replied like it was nothing, but his hands were trembling, and the chips in his hands fell to the floor.
"Mm... I wouldn't do it again. Thank you, Shikamaru.." Feeling the comfort of her friends, Ino gradually calmed down.
Shino stood on his place, but the bugs on his body were constantly agitated.
The most affected of all was Kiba. He was always antagonizing Naruto.
'What was that supposed to be?! A kid could never have that amount!'
His whole body was shaking about it. His clan had the special talent to feel other creatures. But it wasn't an advantage in this situation; it only amplified his fear. He crouched on the ground like a dog, frozen.
The moment Iruka noticed that, he thought that this wasn't good.
'Damn, I couldn't continue the lesson in a such situation.'
"Okay, kids. This was all for today. We will do this two times a week: Monday and Friday, but you can continue doing it at your house. You all have one month to learn chakra. You can go home now."
Noticing that something was wrong, Naruto left the room.
"Bye, Iruka-sensei."
No one moved a finger until he left.
Naruto left his first big impression. It wasn't what he wanted, but it was what he got.
-----|-----|-----|------|------|-----|-----|-----
Hey!
It was interesting describing the process of how Naruto dispelled the Jutsu. It wasn't just a superficial change in his appearance; it was his body. Not his inner self, but at least his appearance was identical to others.
The introduction of the Seams is a way to show that it wasn't perfect; he needs more practice.
Ego can respond TO some of Naruto's questions if they are about the things it gave him.
The normal chakra is weak because they are humans. The small part the kids and Iruka felt is from Kurama and his special blood. I think this would be a better way to introduce other characters, especially Kiba. Someone has to put a leash on the dog.
Iruka needs to take his time to accept Naruto. In the canon, he did it when Naruto was about 10yo.
From this chapter, I will change the content. You can also read the previous chapters and notice that Ego made something with Naruto's Chakra (red).
I hope this version is more to your liking.
I will officially open the Patreon on Friday if someone want to support my work.
