Chapter 13 - Growth(2)

When Naruto woke up, he saw it was already dark. He turned to see his two new friends staring at him.

Shikamaru: "Finally woke up sleepy head?"

Choji: "You sleep more than Shikamaru you know that?" Naruto sheepishly touched the back of his head and rubbed it.

Naruto: "It's been a while since I got some rest."

Choji: "Oh. Got it."

Naruto: "Think we should head home?"

Shikamaru: "Yeah. My mom will kill me If I don't." Naruto winced at this statement Shikamaru caught it. He coughed and then said, "I'll head out first. See ya."

Choji: "Me too. It was a fun day. See you later Naruto."

Naruto: "Bye..." After both his friends disappeared, Naruto felt slumped down. "It is nice to have friends. Unbiased friends I mean."

[Told you.]

Naruto: "Is that sass I hear Cain?"

[No. I merely proved my point.]

Naruto: "Yeah...you did. Thank you."

[...]

Naruto got up and started going home. As he was walking home, he felt uncomfortable. Like getting stalked uncomfortable. Ever since he obtained his instinct skill, he can naturally pick up some things that he didn't before. He started walking faster and took different directions to different places to make sure what he was feeling wasn't wrong. After he confirmed his feeling, he started planning in a store that he sneaked into.

Naruto: "I can't use Shadow Clones. They will notice and either I will get caught by the village or meet up with the stalker. What to do..." 'I wish I had more jutsus.' Soon as he said that, something clicked. 'Jutsus. Of course. Cain, pull up a jutsu from my memory that was given to me by my father that would be extremely useful to hide one appearance.'

[Searching...Jutsu Found.]

[Transformation Jutsu]

[A jutsu that lets the user take the appearance of whatever they choose. At mastery, it will take no signs, show no smoke, and it will be impossible to distinguish between the original and fake.]

[Skill Fusion Compatibility found.]

Naruto: "Not now Cain."

[It's for the jutsu you obtained.]

Naruto: "Oh. Then show me what it fuses. "

[Acting Skill and Transformation Jutsu fusion.]

Naruto: "That would be extremely useful to play the role. Do it."

[Potent Transformation Jutsu (Active) Level 3, Exp-21%]

[Makes the transformation extremely believable due to transformation letting user act like the one he or she transformed into with the ability to also change their appearances slightly and their age. Also, change chakra level to match the transformed.]

Naruto: "So I get their memories or something?"

[No. You would just automatically be like them. Even fight like them but you will not have their powers.]

Naruto: "That...is awesome! Let's get out of here." Naruto went to the bathroom, acting as naturally as he can. His acting skill was showing its prowess. After he went in, he used ID Create. When he went there, he made 50 clones to tell them to master the Transformation and the Potent Transformation Jutsu. Due to the time ratio, Naruto can make it look like he took a long poop. Of course, Cain also let Naruto have a different time ratio so that it will be more efficient for him to train in.

Naruto also joined them in their short training to speed it up. Soon, the clones were turning into different people that he saw throughout the day. Soon, an hour passed in ID Create time and 20 minutes passed in real life. He told the clones to vanish and all the experience came back to him. There was no pain or anything of sorts, only pure information which made him smile.

[Linked Shadow Clones Level 2, Exp-37%]

[Transformation Jutsu Level 30] --> [Transformation Jutsu Level Max]

[Potent Transformation Jutsu Level 30] --> [Potent Transformation Jutsu Level Max]

Naruto: "Good. We can finally get out of here." Naruto used the Potent Transformation to take the appearance of the first man he ever robbed. Taking on his big form, Naruto felt a little uncomfortable so he took the form of somebody else. Instead of going out, Naruto let out a small smile. He created 7 other shadow clones and made them transform into other people they saw throughout the day. After they were done, they all walked out of the bathroom one by one. The people there were utterly confused as to how there were so many people in the store without them noticing, especially in the restrooms.

As they all left the store, the person who was previously watching Naruto was a little surprised at the fact that there were so many people in a small store. It seems as if they showed up in thin air but she subconsciously accepted it. As far as she knew, Naruto did not have any jutsus under his belt yet so she had accepted the situation only after she double-checked by looking at their chakra signatures and found out that none of them had any issues so she ignored them and went back to watching the store, waiting.

Knowing that the plan worked, Naruto let out a small breath of relief mentally because he would not dare to do so physically. He had no idea what this person was capable of. After walking for an hour or so, he went home. Main Naruto successfully went home without anyone noticing. The other clones checked their area and vanished.

[Stealth Level 30] --> [(A)Stealth Level 6, Exp-74%]

Naruto: "That should help in the future but it doesn't make me be a better mood though. I'm curious to know as to who is the one chasing me." Naruto was in deep thought. He knows how weak he is compared to actual shinobi. "Cain, Is there a way for me to fight opponents in the ID create world?"

[Yes. There are different stages. Stages 1-15 has shinobis of different scale available but from 15-20 is where it becomes a little crazy.]

Naruto: "Crazy? Can it get crazier than the Leaf Village being attacked by Kurama?"

[You have no idea.]

Naruto gulped. He knew that he would face enemies but knowing that even for him it will be hard made him a little nervous. And right on time, Gamer's Mind comes and lets him have tranquil thoughts once more.

[And only when you defeat real enemies and enemies from Stages 6-20 will you gain experience to level up. Not to mention, you have to be level 5 to have access to Stages 1-5 and is recommended to be level 20 to go to stage 6. The stages by no means are related to your level. I limited it for you so that you don't become a training maniac.]

Naruto: "That's kind of you but that information is nice to know. With the academy starting, I could start early by fighting the students and then move on to the teachers. If I could get a personal teacher, that would be good too." As Naruto was thinking of plans, he slowly fell asleep. In the quiet night, only the sound of movement could be heard.

?: "Where did he go? How did he escape me?" said an Anbu with luscious purple hair after waiting for three hours. She decided to head inside to check but it turned out that the boy never came out of the restroom. Knowing she had been fooled, she started to look for him everywhere even though she skipped over the fact that he might have gone home.
