Chapter 7 - Trouble (1/2)

(At The Hokage Tower)

Hiruzen sat in his chair, dealing with the worst enemy created by mankind, paperwork! It is a never-ending cycle of stamping and stamping. An enemy that no one could beat, not even he, the Third Hokage. He would even bet that Hashirama, the First Hokage, couldn't defeat it either.

So, he took a break from the paperwork and took out an orange book from one of his drawers.

Not even a minute later, he is already laughing like a pervert with his face covered in blush.

”Kairi-chan, you're so naughty, hehe, ” he laughed perversely.

All of his anbu hiding in the shadows sweatdrops at their leader's perverseness.

Suddenly, a knock came from the door. Hiruzen quickly put away his book under the drawers after he heard the knock.

”Hokage-sama, can I come in?” a male voice asked behind the door.

”Come in, ” Hiruzen said.

The door opened and it revealed Iruka. He seems to be in distress.

”So, what is it, Iruka-kun?” The Hokage asked in an old and wise voice.

He walks towards the front of the desk before asking, ”Hokage-sama, can you please stop Hikaru-kun? I tried everything I could do but for some reason, his physical strength is stronger than mine and he just swatted me away.”

Hiruzen's face grew serious when he heard that, something must've happened for Iruka not able to stop him.

”What happened?” The Hokage asked.

”Well...”

(30 Minutes Ago)

Ding-Ding-Ding!

The school bell rang, signaling that it was already break time for the students. Everybody in the classroom cheered as they could finally get out of that stupid and boring lesson and eat.

Iruka wraps up his things and said, ”Okay, you guys eat responsibly now, okay? No fighting and definitely, no bullying, got it?”

””Yes Sensei!”” they all yelled at the same time.

Iruka nodded in satisfaction for his students before walking out of the classroom. But, in the corner of the classroom, you can see a blond-haired boy rubbing his stomach because of hunger.

Naruto haven't been able to buy food for himself because his monthly allowance is already gone. His allowance wasn't even enough to pay for his rent, food, and other necessities. Since that day from the orphanage, his Jii-jii said that he will be living alone from that day.

Hikaru notices this and knew that making friends with the protagonist of an anime is always the best idea. I mean, Naruto will be the strongest Hokage in the world in the future. He can probably use his help for the battle against the olden god that resides here in the future.

He stood up from his seat and walked towards Naruto. When he neared him, Hikaru opened his mouth.

”Yo, I'm Hikaru Hiroaki, what's your name? ” he asked him.

Naruto looks at Hikaru and looked around before asking, ”Are you... talking to me?” he pointed at himself.

”Hahaha, ” Hikaru laughed before saying, ”Of course, who am I supposed to talk around this corner?”

Naruto's face brightens up before he stood up and introduces himself, ”I'm Uzumaki Naruto, and I'm gonna be the next Hokage! Believe it!”
