Naruto: Dream to Immortality

Title: Advancing...

….

-General POV-

Yami just looks at Naruto, a sweet smile on his face. "Well hello there Naruto,  Inami told me that you want to be Hokage in the future. That is quite a brave dream."

As Yami says that Naruto's face brightens up and he answers. "Sir, yes sir. I wanna be the Hokage."

Yami just laughs at this. "Hahahaha, I know that your road will be hard little Naruto. But be assured that you can come and ask me for help any time. After all, no one becomes Hokage with no friends and allies… even I have people who are dear to me and trust."

The four year old Naruto immediately feels inspired by this.

'People that you can trust huh…' Thinks Naruto, immediately coming to the conclusion. 'I want to have that too.'

"So anyway, what has been worrying you Naruto?" Asks Yami, acting as if he isn't already fully aware of the situation and as if he doesn't spy on Naruto 24 hours a day.

When Yami says that Naruto seems nervous for a little while, but in the end he still decides to say. "Uhhh… no it's nothing."

Naruto looks to the side, embarrassed.

Inami just smiles gently at this. "He just wanted to meet you Hokage -sama. It is nothing so drastic. So thank you for your time Yami."

As she says that, she notices that she accidentally called Yami so casually but they both play it off cool. Like they didn't notice, so Naruto wouldn't pay any attention to it.

Naruto nods at this and goes back to hiding behind Inami. Yami just smiles at this as Inami and Naruto both go outside of his office.

-Yami POV-

After they leave, I immediately just make a shadow clone to take my placea and…

*fwosh*

I teleport back to my house where no one is currently inside. I just walk casually towards my laboratory in the basement entrance. And like usual after many security checks to confirm that it was really me, I finally got inside.

I see the bodies of different cloned peoples, I have finally figured out how to create life… in a way… I just clone the person and use the chakra of another person to create a 'soul'... or more like create a shadow clone that inhibits the physical bodies. So even if they are hit or EVEN if the original dies they won't 'dispel'. 

Honestly this was only possible due to the new understanding and perspective in life and death that the Forbidden S Rank techniques have given me.

So I can now already create life… well more like clones but whatever. Almost the same, after all I CAN adjust the age of the clone that I want to make while creating him.

Though I have some counter measures against betrayal. I will NEVER make a clone of myself, because I know that it will immediately try to kill me, or scheme against me behind my back. 

Anyway as I walk along here I pass the Uchiha Clone Room, I finally arrive at the Hyuga Clone room. I see a dozen or so individuals floating in capsules filled with green liquid. 

I have a couple of smaller capsules with Byakugan's in them. So that is when I go and get a pair of them.  I make three shadow clones and lie down on the operation table. My clones know what to do, as I feel them slowly opening my forehead and making two holes on the skill for them to fit in there. But before they put in the byakugan, they first connect the brain with the eyes. 

After that, with my regeneration, in twenty seconds I am ready to use my new byakugan. 

As I used it I felt weird… x-ray and almost 360°  vision. Though it seems like it only extends five hundred meters. 

Well that can easily be fixed… but damn… I can actually see the movements of the people all around. Though sadly due to my Fuinjutsu around the room it makes it fuzzy to look on the inside with a Byakugan, because I already have counter measures against it and blurring anything… but I can still see clearly outside of the underground room. Which is kinda weird.

….

It is after two months, and that is when my byakugan's range is at around 1.5 km. That something interesting happens, the delegates from Kumo come. I already know that they might try to kidnap Hinata but who knows. My power isn't for nothing after all. People are afraid to take certain actions just because of me. 

Currently here I am, sitting with the Kumo delegates, there us three of them. They all seem like the average middle aged ninja.

"Hokage -sama I am Kayin, I shall overlook the signing of the contract and confirm with Raikage -sama." Says the thin and smart seeming middle aged man.

I just nod at this. I already know what the contract is about. 

….

Five days pass… and there is no problem.  Kumo didn't dare act anything else but civil. 

Wow… Hiruzen's leadership must have really sucked. I mean in Canon, Kumo came here to sign a deal, they broke the deal by trying to kidnap Hinata, then their kidnapper is killed. Instead of refusing to associate themselves with the kidnapper… they owned it up and even made Hiruzen give them the one who 'killed' the delegate. That is as much of a b*tch as you can be. No wonder he had to step down as Hokage, he is weak and not a strong dealer.

*sigh* As expected, I am changing things without even meaning to. Since I am not weak like Hiruzen, people don't dare do something against Konoha when I am the leader. I mean Hiruzen allowed Danzo to orchestrate an assassination against him and even though it failed… he didn't do anything to Danzo and let him get away scot free.

….

As another month passes,  Itachi seems to graduate from the academy. That was about as interesting as this month had been….

But still… I have to complete another procedure today… it will allow me to change from a simple human man into… something more. Now that the red cube is complete, now I just need to be delicate with it.

I just walk towards my lab, and lie down as five of my shadow clones start the procedure which will make me at least 2x as strong.

As it starts I can feel them start shaving my head first and… digging out the skull… slowly I could feel different 'visions' appear around my head… yes… I have already put in there Kamui and different Sharingan all over my skull with different Mangekyo abilities and connected them all to the brain, allowing me to use multiple Mangekyo abilities.

As I get up, I look at a mirror and see… a pale skinned man with a bald head and twitching eyes all around his head… that… was me. That honestly looks grotesque... so…

*poof*

One transformation jutsu later I look just like my normal self. Welp that is that...

That is when I undo the transformation and am back to my grotesque self and I pull out the Red Cube…  time to  use this thing on me now...

….

A/N: Kumo didn't kidnap Hinata this turn because they knew what Yami might do if he decides to go after Kumo. But really though while researching this events... wtf... Hiruzen is such a weak leader... no wonder Danzo hated his guts. leadership.🤣

THIS IS THE BONUS CHAPTER.
