Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ A World of Troubles ❯ Chapter One-The Beginning ( Chapter 1 )

DISCLAIMER~I do not own Naruto the series, or any of the characters Masashi Kishimoto has created. Now Chad Kisamma is my OWN character. Metsubou no jutsu and Chakra kakuheki no jutsu are also my techniques. I will create more as the series progresses. I will add in my notes at the end of the story which, if any, techniques I created during that chapter, and what they mean. Those are my techniques in that case.

 

 

 

 

Now, thank you for taking the time to even open this story. Let me warn you, this changes a few things in the Narutoverse. First off, the known Narutoverse is actually just Asia and has been secluded so as to avoid the constant war that goes on in the outside world. Each continent has its own Bijuu. This starts in Manga Chapter 425, so anything that goes on after that in the manga is NOT part of this story. I do not think most chapters will be this long. I just wanted to make the first chapter special. Most will probably be 2,000-2,500 words. Not the roughly 3,300 this one is. So yes there are changes in to the whole premise of the Narutoverse, but, hey, its my fanfic right? : ) Anyways, please read it, even if you don't like some of the changes. Oh, and you'll probably think someone is overpowered. Read my notes at the end in that case.

Kakashi couldn't move. He lay on his stomach, immobile. Pain had him, there was no doubt. Now he was just waiting for the final move. He'd accepted his fate, he only hoped he had stalled Pain long enough for help to arrive, for Konoha to be saved, for Naruto to live.

 

“Metsubou no jutsu!”

 

Destruction Technique? This Pain couldn't do that. It must be someone else, but who knows a technique named that? I've never heard of it before.

 

With the last of his strength, Kakashi opened his right eye. There he saw a boy, probably sixteen. His vision became blurred as he became unable to keep his eye open any longer. He felt himself being lifted off the ground, but he felt support. It wasn't Pain's technique, it was someone's arms. And with that, Kakashi finally passed out.

 

 

When he awoke, he was in the hospital, Tsunade by his bed.

 

“You really need to take it easier next time, your wounds were immense. You had absolutely no chakra left, we barely saved you,” she said, smiling just for the fact he was alive.

 

“Well, I'm alive aren't I?” he said, he let out a small laugh. Instantly the pain of a knife being stabbed inside of oneself ran all throughout his body. He grimaced. “How'd I make it anyways?”

 

“We had…reinforcements,” Tsunade said with a smile.

 

“Sand Shinobi?”

 

“No, better. American.”

 

“What?!” Kakashi's eyes grew wide. “You got an American Shinobi? What about keeping the other continents quiet, you know, to avoid the ongoing wars on the outside?”

 

Tsunade stepped towards the door and opened it. She turned her head back towards Kakashi.

 

“There comes a time when necessity forces one to risk much so that in the end everything is saved.”

 

As she walked away, Kakashi closed his eyes. She was right. Akatsuki was a powerful organization, obviously. The members strength varied greatly, but even the weakest of the group provided a very tough fight for even Kakashi, and as for Pain, he would be impossible for Kakashi to ever defeat. In the end, no one ninja could really stand up against Akatsuki, it would take multiple, incredibly powerful ninjas, but their were too few ninjas who attained the power rank needed to stand up against all of Akatsuki, and then when in the case of Konoha and its allies, you limit your search to just one continent, it became impossible to find enough people to really combat Akatsuki, especially with Akatsuki having Bijuu, the number which they had though was unknown to Kakashi. The way things were going, Konoha was to face sure destruction. It's only hope had become Naruto, but even he would not be powerful enough to stand up to Akatsuki alone. And with Naruto dead, and all the Bijuu collected, Akatsuki would have merry ole time destroying the world.

 

Tsunade did what she had to. In the case of facing sure destruction, she reached out past the Asian continent and requested help from what many consider one of the most powerful nation of all, the Americas. Though, this put all of the Asian continent at risk of being dragged into wars with the other continents of the world, it gave Konoha, and the rest of Asia, hope that maybe, just maybe, Akatsuki, and the world as they knew it, could be saved.

 

With those thoughts floating in his head, Kakashi drifted into sleep. He knew Tsunade had made the right decision.

 

************************************************************* ***********

 

 

Tsunade sat at her desk, the boy standing in front of her.

 

“Good work, saving Kakashi that is. I don't know how you did it, but you are a remarkable shinobi,” she told him, smiling.

 

“I couldn't kill them, I was able to get that oddly pierced guy to run away, I don't know where he went off too.”

 

“Don't worry, he most likely just left with his Akatsuki friends. They'll be back eventually, but for now, you have work to do. You're country has officially signed you over to us as a Konoha shinobi, temporarily of course. For now, you're one of us, and as such, you'll be assigned to a squad. Give me some time to do smooth some things out, but I can almost guarantee that you'll be put into Team 7.”

 

All I have to do is take care of Danzou and get Sai out of the team, and then I can guarantee your entrance. But that is much easier said than done.

 

“Now, for some background information on your team; it will consist of three others: a squad leader, who is named Hatake Kakashi, the man you saved, then there is Haruno Sakura, a medical ninja who has trained under myself, and finally, Uzumaki Naruto. Naruto is something special, you two will fit well together I hope. He is a Jinchuriki like yourself, after all,” Tsunade paused, and saw the reaction on his face. The boy seemed shocked.

 

“You're putting me on a team with another Jinchuriki? You do know that I---”

 

“Yes, I know. But you only did those things out of necessity for your country. That I can understand, respect, and forgive you for. I absolutely trust that you will do nothing to harm Uzumaki Naruto. Besides, I know of your hatred of fighting and war, I highly doubt you'd even want to do that to him.”

 

The boy just nodded his head. It was true, he absolutely hated war. He had good reason to. His entire life had been continuously surrounded by war. Since his birth sixteen years ago, his country has not had a single moment of peace, it was changing from war to war, not for the political gain of its people, but for the sheer fact no countries would leave it alone and it was constantly being invaded. He had known war his whole life. He had grown up hating it, hating the fighting, hating the death, hating it all. Yet, as a Jinchuriki, he was used as a tool for war, and as such, he hard grown up fighting.

 

“I wouldn't think of it,” the boy whispered. An obvious sadness in his face.

 

“Now note that there will be a high amount of tension when they learn you're joining their squad. They have a lot of history together, and---”

 

“And they'll feel like I'm replacing a lost member.”

 

“Yes, exactly, how'd you know?”

 

“You usually do four man cells. If a cell has a lot of history together, you wouldn't just suddenly remove a historical member to put anyone else in, so obviously a historical member has left the group somehow, if it's through death, I don't know.”

 

He's smart just like they said he was. He really is Naruto's opposite. He's cool-headed, calm, thoughtful, patient, quiet, and let's not forget, he's slow to resort to fighting. Yup, he's pretty much the exact opposite of Naruto. I hope they'll get along.

 

“Well, you're smart. And you're right. Now, Kakashi is in room 120 in the hospital, and Sakura, well, we never know for sure where she is. Though, I don't suggest you talk with her until you're with the entire team, and Naruto won't be back for a few more days. I do suggest talking to Kakashi, but…let's save that for tomorrow, he needs his sleep.”

 

“Thank you,” the boy said, smiling.

 

“Oh, and great to have you here,” Tsunade said.

 

With that, Chad turned and left. Tsunade smiled as he went.

 

“Chad Kisamma, we couldn't have asked for a better shinobi to be sent to help us,” she whispered to herself. She got back to doing her work. She had to think of a plan to get back at Danzou and his attempt of overthrowing the Konohagakure government.

 

************************************************************* ***********

 

 

Chad walked down the main street of the village. He had no idea where he was going, in this village, he was clueless. His childhood feelings were coming back to him, the loneliness, the fear, the silence. He had no one, he knew no one; he was alone again.

 

His stomach rumbled louder than an elephant roaring. Chad chuckled a little. He looked around and saw a small ramen stand.

 

“Ichiraku Ramen, eh? Sounds good enough.” Chad walked in and sat down.

 

“Hello young man, I've never seen you around here. Are you new?” the man asked.

 

“Why yes, I am,” Chad replied, smiling as some of the feelings of nervousness and loneliness left him.

 

“Good, good, I always love new customers. What will it be?” the man asked. Chad scanned the list, looking for the best kind.

 

“A bowl of miso pork, please.”

 

The man nodded and quickly began preparing the bowl. Chad watched in awe as a magnificent dish was created. He was used to just quick, in-a-cup instant ramen, but here was this bowl of noodle, pork, and numerous vegetables which Chad could never even dream of guessing what they were. All he knew is when he got the bowl it looked delicious.

 

“Hmm, with you're new customer discount, that first bowl will be…” the man paused, and with his finger, wrote out some math problems in the air. “Zero yen!”

 

Chad gagged on his ramen when he heard that.

 

“Free?” he asked.

 

“Sure, why not? Just this bowl, though. Don't worry, the next bowl will be double,” the man said with a wink. They both laughed.

 

The people here are much nicer than back home. There's no way I'd have gotten a free meal back, not for any reason. I'm starting to like it here already.

 

Chad went back to eating his ramen. He didn't notice the smile on his face. Teuchi did, and he smiled to himself as he went back to cleaning used ramen bowls.

 

************************************************************* ***********

 

 

“Danzou!” Tsunade yelled. “You attempted to overthrow me as Hokage during the mass chaos of the invasion. I do not need any advisors for me to know that I must banish you from Konoha!”

 

“Princess Tsunade, you mustn't result to such extreme actions,” Danzou replied. “You may be my superior, but I am your elder.”

 

“I don't care what you may be, you broke Konohagakure law. You have until the morning to leave, or else I will have you evicted by force, even if I have to do it by myself.”

 

“Princess Tsunade, you're over reacting. Besides, with my Root members, you can't force me out of here. No shinobi can,” Danzou said laughing.

 

“Oh, but there are a few that can; trust me when I say leave, or it will be hell for you,” Tsunade snarled. She walked away.

 

Danzou tried to shake off the orders as hollow threats, he tried to tell himself he'd be protected by Root, but something in her eyes, it was obvious she had an ace up her sleeve, but there was no way Naruto was back yet. Then who?

 

Tsunade knew she would have to find Chad. Normally she'd entrust Kakashi with this job of fighting off the Roots that would guard Danzou, but that would be rather difficult when you're incapable of moving. Besides, it would be a good chance for her to assess the skills of the American on her own.

 

************************************************************* ***********

 

 

“Thank you for the ramen, sir, I've never had ramen so delicious before. Truthfully, I didn't even know you could put anything more than that little yellow powder stuff in it,” Chad joked. The man laughed.

 

“You obviously aren't from around here. I know a boy that would be very disappointed in your knowledge of ramen. You should meet him one day; I think you two would get along very well. His name is Naruto,” the man said.

 

“Uzumaki Naruto? I'm going to be in his shinobi cell.”

 

“Well you're a lucky kid then. Naruto is a great shinobi. You'll be well protected wherever you go,” the man smiled. “It's about time I close up.”

 

Chad nodded. The man was right, it was getting late.

 

“Do you need any help?” Chad asked. The man shook his head. “Well thank you once again for the ramen. Oh, I'm Chad Kisamma, by the way.”

 

Chad stuck his hand out. The man shook it.

 

“I'm Teuchi, nice to meet you Kisamma,” the man said. Chad laughed.

 

“I forgot you guys say your last names first. I'm American, sir. Kisamma is my last name, my first name is Chad.”

 

Teuchi laughed, so the boy was American. He wondered why he was here. He came to the conclusion the Hokage had summoned him. That was the only real explanation as to why an American shinobi would travel this far just to be put in squad with Uzumaki Naruto.

 

Chad walked away, turning back just to wave good-bye one last time. He headed towards the hotel he was staying at until he could find an apartment.

 

“Chad, Chad, Chad!”

 

He turned around. The Hokage was running straight for him.

 

“Hokage-sama!” Chad half yelled, incredibly surprised to see her.

 

“No, p..ple..ase ca..ll me Tsu..na..de,” she panted.

 

“Umm, okay Lady Tsunade. Do you need anything?”

 

That's a dumb question. Of course she needs something, why else would she run around looking for me this late at night? To ask me on a date? Yeah right.

 

“As a matter of fact I do. Tomorrow, I need you to be at the front gate of Konoha at seven. We have reason to believe there will be need for a strong shinobi to…well, let's just say do a little bit of protection work. Can you do it?”

 

“Uh, sure,” Chad said, taken aback that he had a job already. “Will I be alone?”

 

“Yes, most likely.”

 

“How many other shinobi will I have to face?”

 

“We're not sure. All we know is they are powerful ANBU members,” Tsunade said.

 

“ANBU? Aren't those your guys?”

 

“Well, yes, usually. These guys have taken the wrong path. They're not exactly straightedge. They'll be no match for you though, I promise,” Tsunade told him, winking at him. You did manage to send Pain running for his life, which I highly doubt these Roots could have even doneworking together, so you'll be fine. “Just bring all your equipment.”

 

“Oh, don't worry Lady Tsunade. I never come to a fight unprepared. It'll be quick, I hate fighting,” Chad smiled and gave Tsunade a thumbs up.

 

“Thank you. I'll be there as back up, so you have nothing to worry about.”

 

“Thank you Lady Tsunade. It seems like I need to hurry and get to bed. We only have seven hours until its time,” Chad said thoughtfully.

 

Chad turned and headed back to his hotel room. Tsunade had no worries. Danzou would be gone in the morning.

 

************************************************************* ***********

 

 

Chad had been sitting in front of the front gate for thirty minutes, meditating. Tsunade looked on surprised, she had never seen a shinobi his age have the patience to do such a thing. For the whole thirty minutes he was so still, Tsunade could've sworn he was dead.

 

At seven on the dot, Danzou and twenty ANBU members appeared. Without them making any noise, Chad stood up.

 

“I'm sorry, I've been told not that one of you must leave, and I must use force if necessary. I'm sorry for what is about to happen, but orders are orders,” Chad said, putting a hand on a sword on his waist in the back. Danzou laughed.

 

“So Tsunade sends a mere child, a no-name shinobi to fight me and my team?” Danzou laughed. Chad grabbed a headband and put it on. On it was inscribed an olive branch, the symbol of the Land of Peace, a hidden village in one of the American countries. Danzou stopped laughing. If this boy came from the Americas he had to be fairly strong, they wouldn't send a weak shinobi to help out Konoha, they always want to be shown in a good light.

 

“Why is an American shinobi here Princess Tsunade?” Danzou looked up as he asked, he knew she was around.

 

“Someone had to help safeguard Konoha while you and your Root members did your best to dismantle it from the inside,” the voice came from nowhere.

 

“Dammit, where is she?” Danzou whispered. He looked back up at Chad, who'd been gathering his chakra the whole time. He looked at his Root members. “Attack him already!”

 

The twenty Root members all suddenly charged. They thought nothing of this child. They outnumbered him twenty to one. Besides, none of the Root members knew what an American Shinobi was. They sounded weak. The Root members had effectively let their guard down.

 

Shuriken and kunai flew at Chad, but he was used to being on the defensive. He hated hurting people, so he had always preferred fighting defensively and letting others just run out of chakra. But he knew this had to be quick.

 

“Chakra kakuheki no jutsu!” Chad was suddenly surrounded by a chakra barrier. As it dispersed he performed another technique. “Metsubou no jutsu!”

 

From the ground, large shards of some kind of energy unknown to Danzou or even Tsunade flung themselves at the twenty Root members. They had an odd color, there was no exact one. From one angle they were blue, the next red. They were every color. The shards tore through the Root members. Chad had carefully placed them, cutting just the hamstrings and the biceps on all twenty Root members, successfully rendering them incapable of combat.

 

Chad walked over to Danzou, who was paralyzed with fear. This boy had just taken out his twenty best Root members with ease. Chad grabbed him by his robe and dragged him to the front gate. He threw him out. He clapped his hands together and walked back to his hotel room. Tsunade didn't even get a chance to thank him. She had found a great shinobi. She knew he had his weaknesses though, and those were extreme. Oh well, he had done the job this time, with flying colors in fact.

 

Tsunade walked out to the injured ninja. She was followed by nine other medical ninjas, including Sakura.

 

“Master, how'd he do that?” Sakura asked.

 

“Do what?” Tsunade had expected the outcome, she was completely unfazed by it. Sakura, on the other hand, had probably expected the exact opposite. “Oh, this. Well, that boy is probably one of the most powerful shinobi in the world. Though, like Naruto, he has extreme weaknesses. Oh, Sakura, I believe I forgot to mention Sai isn't on your team anymore, that kid is.”

 

Sakura looked at her master wide-eyed.

 

“He's in…our squad?” she was taken aback.

 

“Yes. He's incredibly strong, and he's really the exact opposite of Naruto. They'll hopefully balance each other's weaknesses out. Not to mention its extra protection for the both of them. That kid is also a Jinchuriki, but unlike Naruto, he has many, many different Bijuu in him.”

 

“Many Bijuu? How do you have more than one?” Sakura asked.

 

“He absorbed a bunch of other ones after he had his first one. He could only do it thanks to the Bijuu he had. You see, he had a powerful Bijuu in the first place. Not to mention they're apparently good friends.. Such good friends that the Bijuu will give him all his chakra and still let the boy be in control. During wars with various countries around the world, to save his country, that boy had to fight Bijuu alone. Most Bijuu in other parts of the world don't have a Jinchuriki, and never have had one. Now, these Bijuu threatened his country's survival, and as such, this boy learned how to fight, defeat, and absorb a Bijuu, all so his friends and comrades would be safe. There is not a single person in the world I would actually trust more to contain all those Bijuu. He's different than most shinobi. He has a sheer hatred of fighting. He does it only because he has to. He'll never use those Bijuu for evil. So don't worry, we're safe. Oh, and let's not forget the fact that his country is only around because of his original Bijuu. His country's story of gaining a Jinchuriki is different than ours. Naruto has the fox in him so as to protect Konoha. For that boy its different, he has it so as to protect the Bijuu…”

Author Notes: Thank you so much for reading this, this is the first thing I've written in probably two years that I've actually published anywhere, so if you would, please review it. This is just the start, things will start to really get moving in a few chapters or so, so please bear with me. Lots more of the past will be brought up. These next few chapters will focus around Chad's past, his immense weaknesses (yes, he seems incredibly strong, he is, but he has huge weaknesses, due both to his past, his hatred of fighting, and all the Bijuu he carries. They're actually more of a curse). They'll focus on the Bijuu he carries. Yes, I know them. They'll also be relationship building chapters, especially focusing on Team 7 and Chad. Oh, and Chad's love interest. : )
