Legacy Of The Yellow Flash

Prologue 1

AN: I was expecting little reaction to the announcement but for only 1 person to say anything in 2 months is kind of crazy considering all the support I had gathered over my hiatus. However instead of continuing to wait for a reaction I decided to make some Prologue chapters for those who want to see if i'm actually going to commit to this story.

Speaking: "Hold This Fat L"
Internal Speech: 'Mans really finna hold this L
Biiju Speech: "Damm he really did hold that L"

Location: Konohagakure 
Translation: Hidden Leaf Village

(Third Person POV:) 

Konohagakure, widely regarded as the strongest village in the ninja world spans about over a million acres sitting flat on the land, surrounded by lush forest growth and a cliff face that spans the entire backside of the village. On the cliff face multiple heads can be seen the details of each head can be described as nearly perfect, a memento to every one who has held the title Hokage (Fire Shadow).These individuals hold the highest responsibility within the village. With the task of managing trade, ordering around other ninja, gauging ability and handing out promotions and many others. This is not a job for the faint of heart either, Being Hokage requires years of experience intelligence and skill to take up such a position. Every man or woman who has held this honor is respected and revered by every person who resides in the village. Of course with this being the general consensus around the Hokage how could some loudmouthed brat with no talent towards becoming a ninja at all could ever get close to being granted such an honor?

Well To Answer That....

A blond haired young boy can be seen leaning over the railing of what could be assumed the back balcony his room inside the massive apartment complex. He stands at 4 feet and 9 inches tall weighing in around 130 IBS or 58 and some change kilo's. His sky blue eyes shine brightly in the reflection of the moon, he has a slightly rounded face with 3 whisker like markings aligning the middle of his cheeks. His spiky blonde hair flows slightly in the wind and he is wearing his signature orange hoodie with black pants and black running sandals with black socks. 

His name is Naruto Uzumaki a 12 year old academy student. His claim to fame in the village is his mild but dangerously clever pranks, this of course draws ire from most of the village seeing as how it ruins one's day to day habits and usually warrants embarrassment from the poor bastard who had found himself the target of Naruto's infamous hobby. The young boy however was already used to being hated as since the day he could remember just getting someone to speak to him was difficult. Adults never even gave Naruto the time of day when he asked older ninja and kunoichi about his or her experience in the field. Naruto deciding he would rather give people a stupid reason for them to hate him than for the masses to hate him for no apparent reason, at least in his eyes this was the case. 

A knock on his front door and Naruto instantly turned around and went inside his apartment in a panic. Looking inside the box where he stores his Ryo the universal currency of the ninja world he finds it empty and his panic increases dramatically. He hears another knock is heard Naruto sweating now picks up his pace and looks into his panic money box. The box the running sandals he is currently wearing came in. The reason for such an urgency to find money is that Naruto had been late on his rent this month. Knowing the drastic increase in late fees Naruto would have to pay beats out having the landlord being pissed about Naruto taking a long ass time to answer the door. 

Finding enough cash for this months rent he scrambles to the kitchen and grabs an envelop from a cabinet that he stores his miscellaneous items. Filling it with the Ryo required and sealing it quickly he runs to the door, opening it with an apologetic look. "Sorry Mr.Lycal" Naruto says quickly  "I was getting dressed for the day I didn't mean to make you wait so long!". However the man that Naruto was expecting to be outside of his door with quite and angry look on his face wasn't there. "It's nothing Naruto I would have simply left what I was meaning to drop off and headed back to my office. But since your home I might as well sit down and chat with you while I have the time". 

The man who spoke these words were none other than the 3rd Hokage of the leaf. Hiruzen Sarutobi standing at 5'11 and 195 IBS and with a face that shows both age and hardship while also giving off an aura of kindness and safety to whoever is within his vicinity. Accompanied by a white goatee and a smoking pipe. Naruto after getting over the embarrassment of almost being caught behind schedule on rent (He would really have to make sure he submits it before the end of the day) instantly invited the leaf's leader and his grandfather figure into his apartment. Naruto was of course used to the Hokage showing up to his door every now and then, and he really appreciated the conversations he had with the old man as outside of getting made fun of for being one of the worst students in the academy he didn't get much social interaction. Naruto wasn't sure what Hiruzen would ask of him and the elderly hokage's question had thrown him for quite the loop.

"Naruto... what type of ninja are you looking to be?". This question got his gears going in his head for a while. He never expected to be asked such a question and in all honesty he had no real clue. He could try and just answer randomly but his gut told him that should the hokage be looking to help Naruto in any way he could possibly get something that he would have no intrest in. So with this in mind he decided to answer honestly, "I have no clue gramps,I really would like to balance myself and work on my fundamental skills before branching out. I think that would be best for me right now". Hiruzen took this as a sign of Naruto knowing what he was lacking, which from the reports he was getting from the academy was everything at the moment. With this the man gave Naruto a small smile and patted his head. Before announcing his need to head back to his office and continue his duties as a kage and facing the dreaded monster of paperwork. Before he could use the Body Flicker to make his way over he noticed something in the corner of the room, a little brown stick poking out of a cabinet on the floor. However before he could figure out what the object was Naruto caught his gaze and quickly but smoothly walked over to shove the object further into the cabinet and pull out a cup of instant ramen his favorite food out of there. 

Understanding the young boy's obsession with the food item Hiruzen hadn't found it suspicious that he would have a second pantry filled with it. Taking this into account the man left the apartment in a flash of green leaving around 15 flowing leaves in his wake. Naruto after confirming he was gone went back into the Cabinet and grabbed the item he had somehow hidden from the Hokage. It was a scroll specifically one from the village library, a scroll on the 5 shinobi nations and basic information on Konoha's history was the topic. Naruto had taken it upon himself to learn this information. For reasons that only he and some questionable characters at the hidden leaf village's academy knew. Naruto looking at the clock to see that it is currently 8:40 and he had around 15 minutes to get to the academy before he would be market late for the 3rd time this week, the whiskered boy quickly ran into his room packed his stuff for the day and booked it down the road for another day of boring lectures that sometimes brought out gems of information.


Chapter End.
