Walking into the house, Chiba saw the red headed women who he called sensei standing, tapping her toes in inpatients.
A look of relief appeared on her face seeing the mildy injured Chiba as she only sensed that his chakra was half empty, her relief Morphed into anger.
"What are you doing up at 8:00pm the night before I teach you Fuinjutsu? Do you think I want my student to be drained of chakra the morning I teach? Both you and your opponents chakra were going far beyond what is acceptable for a spar, Minato and I were watching the fight from the Hokage crystal ball and..." Moving his head towards Minato in an almost begging manner, the blonde man decided to step in and help.
"Honey, they were just boys trying to find their exact limits before putting them to use on a mission. When I was younger, I wasn't exactly sure how powerful I'd become so I challenged Jiraiya sensei to a spar. Me and Jiraiya sensei went all out on top of the ocean, go well beyond even what these kids were doing." Minato explained, only to find his wife not buying the excuse.
"Also, your genius student had even taught me a trick! Because of him, ill be able to spend a lot more time with you at the house!" Minato said, knowing this would calm her down.
Her angry attitude had quickly shifted into one of excitement and happyness as a rosey blush bloomed on her face, the Jinchuriki was very easily excitable.
"Really! That's wonderful! I can't wait to go out on more da-" noticing Chiba trying to slip away by opening up a window, she quickly stopped him.
"Hold on buster, I'm not finished." Kushina said in complete seriousness.
She couldn't forget the feeling of dread she felt when Chiba's opponent's chakra had transcended the Jonin level and was comparable to a Hokage! She didn't care if it was a spar or not, she was worried for her only student being crippled or even killed in a pointless spar.
"You worried me when I felt your chakra clashing with your sparing partner, you are forbidden from going that hard in a spar again, are you listening to me?" Kushina said, worried for Chiba's safety.
'Man Kushina has intense maternal instincts even before having Naruto, but its not bad I guess...shes acting like shes my mom.' Chiba who only looked at Kushina as a way to grow stronger, suddenly felt guilty at the way he treated her.
He only thought of her as someone who's goals aligned with, he'd help her husband by having Uchiha calm down and grow closer to Konoha while she would teach him Fuinjutsu. Now he looked at her like an actual sensei and authorityfugure, maybe even as a friend.
"Yes ma'am, I promise I won't go that hard in a spar ever again" Chiba said in sincerity.
Hearing those words coming out Chiba, Kushina's smiled a blossomed cheek to cheek.
"Good, as a reward I shall hand you the first Fuinjutsu that is specific to my clan, its a power sealing technique. Only me and Minato know this technique, and once you master it, you'll be considered a Jonin level Fuinjutsu user!
Smiling, Chiba got down on one knee and bent his head
"I promise Kushina Sensei, I'll keep my promises to you no matter what!...Thank you for trusting me with such importa-"
[DING!! DONG!!]
Grabbing his head in pain at the blaring noise of his system, Chiba felt dread coursing though his veins at this noise.
'System!'
[Template system:

The first template: Fujitora

(!!!EMERGENCY!!!)
Daily mission: 1000 slashes, (1000/1000) ]
Chiba's chakra suddenly fluctuated and he began to sweat heavily as he saw the brand new emergency tab, he quickly opened it!
[Warning! Fellow Candidate has invaded through this worlds barrier via unknown means! Invader will appear within vaccinity of user, please prepare yourself for battle in (45:12), (45:11), (45:10)
Reward: Unlock 100% Template Character, Evolve one template ability, evolve system.] Chiba felt his heart pound out of his chest at what he saw.
'Invader? World barrier?! That the fuck is going on! 100% template unlocked!!!' Out of evert that Chiba read, his rewards scared him the most.
While he didn't know much about what his system, he knew that the system wouldn't give out free rewards. If the reward is unlocking his entire template character, then the difficulty of the quest has to fit this reward!
'The reward for killing a Kage level ninja is 25%, going by that logic then this "Invader" is at least four times stronger than a Kage!' Dread filled Chibas entire being, he felt light headed before he took deep breaths in and out.
'...I've already lived 10 years longer than I should have, I obtained a family and made a few friends. I guess I can't complain about this extra decade I was granted after being killed in my past life.'
Letting a deep breath out Chiba calmed down and made a hollow smile, Chiba looked up at Minato and Kushina who knelt next to him in worry.
"I uh, have to take my leave. We'll have to reschedule tomorrows lesson for the later, I'll be too occupied for the foreseeable future..... Goodbye Kushina sensei and Minato-Sama." Without waiting for her answer, Chiba opened the door and activated his Sora and rapidly got home.
'To think I have to fight right after I had such an intense spar, I doubt being full strength would make that much of a difference anyway.' looking at his slightly shaking hands, Chiba couldn't help but feel fear despite having accepted his fate.
Opening the Fuinjutsu scroll that Chiba just obtained, he let out a saddened sigh at what he saw. The Fuinjutsu allowed him to store his and possibly his enemies attacks within a scroll, allowing him to unleash the jutsu when he re-opened the seal.
While this was powerful, it was also very complex and would take Chiba months of training to learn, not to mention his enemies apparently isn't from this this worlds so who know if the seal would work on their attacks!
Getting his Shinobi gear on, Chiba was about to sheath his sword when he saw all of the cracks in the metal.
'Im a dead man walking, their is no time for decency!' Activating his observation Haki to peer into the Sarutobi clans personal grave, Chiba found what he was looking for.
Located under the grave of Sasuke Sarutobi that he had seen earlier, Chiba saw a dark purple sword that seemed to shine even in the dark. Without any hesitation, Chiba pulled the blade down through the bottom of the coffin and to him, breaking out of the ground and into his hand.
Chiba nearly dropped the sword as he felt it's immense weight when he deactivated his gravity, forcing him to constantly use his Devil Fruit just to make the blade usable!
'A legendary blade made entire out of Adamantine, left to rot because an old man wished to be buried with his weapon. I'll tell let you taste blood one last time!'
Unsheathing the blade, it almost appeared to suck in the moonlight as the darkness of the purple blade surprised even Chiba.
Grabbing a bag Chiba got war ready. He filled the bag with multiple storage scrolls of explosion tags, smoke bombs and senbon needles before eating all of the food in his kitchen. He used his Life Return to heal his sore body back to full health before deciding that was the best he could, the time was ticking down and he had to get moving.
Standing infront of his sister's door, Chiba couldn't bring himself to knock, he was never really good at saying goodbye to his loved ones.
Taking out multiple pieces of paper, Chiba wrote all of his feeling and thought, apologizing for immediately breaking his promise and dying a third time. Chiba didnt know who or what hed be facing, but he had a gut feeling that he wasnt strong enough to face it.
Chiba felt terrible for leaving his sister all alone in this world but didn't have a choice, he could only tell her the location of Sakumos instruction guide so she could continue her training and make sure she survive this war torn world.
[22:18] [22:17] [22:16]
Not wanting to involve the village In whatever was about to happen, Chiba ran to the entrance of the village only to be stopped dead in his track.
Standing at the front gate was a blond haired man, dressed in casual clothing, waiting for him.
"Where are you heading off to dressed in battle attire?" Minato said as Chiba tried to move past him, only to be stopped.
"I forgot something I have to take care of, please move Hokage-sama" Hearing the edge in Chiba's voice, and the fact he called him by his title and not by his name, Minato knew something serious was happening.
Chiba tried multiple time to get past the yellow flash but he was too fast for the blind Uchiha, letting out a frustrated sigh, Chiba stopped trying to get by and just turned towards Minato.
"I'll tell you on one condition, teleport me as far away from Konoha as possible, located in the middle of no where, where no human casualties can occur!" Sticking his hand up, Chiba waited.
Minato's eyes narrowed when Chiba talked about human casualties. With a wary nod, Minato grabbed Chiba hands as they suddenly appeared in a cold dry desert, located hundreds of miles from any human encampment.
"Explain." Minato had stopped speaking friendly, and instead spoke with the authority of a Hokage.
"There not enough time to explain everything but in exactly fifteen minutes from now, an overwhelming powerful being will arrive to kill me. They will presumably have Powers and abilities completely different from chakra, these abilities will more than likely surpass Ninjutsu in most regards." As he spoke Chiba dumped his bag on the floor and opened all of his scroll.
Hundreds of explosion tags began to pop out and float in the air, before diving into the ground and burying themselves into the sand alongside thousands of senbon needles.
"This is my problem and not Konoha's, you can go back to the village. I'll find my way home." Chiba said as his hair suddenly grew to his knees and kicked off his shoes, revealing toe nails that looked as sharp as daggers.
Minato looked at the battle ready Chiba, knowing he was deadly serious about the attack and had a sad but heartwarming thought.
'You left the village because you believe a powerful foe is trying to kill you, sparing the village but damning yourself...'
Minato knew that if what Chiba said was correct, he could have just remained at the Konoha and forced the being to fight the leaf ninjas. Instead Chiba decided to flee the village in order to save its people.
After a moment of silence Minato nodded befote suddenly disappeared, leaving Chiba all alone in the middle of the desert to ponder his regrets.
[10:03] [10:02] [10:01]
'I havent secured the safety of the Uchiha clan, I havent saved Minato and Kushina from the nine tails, I havent trained Koizumi enough to kill Ao, I haven't had a chil-' Suddenly appearing before Chiba and cutting off his though of regret, Minato Namikaze returned!
Unlike before, Minato was dressed head to toe in Shinobi attire with his Hokage coat on! Chiba opened his mouth to speak but was quickly cut off.
"I am the Hokage of the Leaf, the safety of every man, woman or child is my concern, that includes you Chiba!"
==========
I feel like this chapter and the next few are gonna get some mixed signals so im gonna ask a question to see what yall want.
Would you guys prefer if i leave this fanfiction as a 100% Naruto World story or would you want Chiba going off into different worlds After he finishes up the Plot of Naruto.
Comment on which one yall want more and ill decide on which direction to take the story, i wont be changing the next 10 chapters since i already wrote them but the vote will determine the direction of the new chapters i write.
Vote 1. leave this story 100% naruto and end after he finished up the Naruto plot.
Vote 2. Have this story continue on and delve into other worlds after Chiba finishes up the Naruto story.
Personally in leanings more on 2 since it sounds more fun to write but it's up to yall.
