A Scarlett Flower (Naruto Isekai Fanfic)

ch 5

Reiko pov

I'm gonna fail again aren't I?..

Despite thinking that, I found myself looking at the loud streets of Konohagakure as Ojii-chan and I walked.

Suddenly I heard a voice call out to Ojii-chan as I watched barely even understanding what was happening.

Ojii-chan suddenly bent down in pain before I could even react or even...

See it....

Coming to him hurriedly wondering if he was okay, he suddenly chuckled.

Despite being kicked, Ojii-chan seemed completely fine...

He's even smiling.

So this is what a real shinobi is like...

Gazing to my left I looked at the crimson haired woman as she grinned at Ojii-chan.

But then suddenly she fell to the floor as she laughed with Ojii-chan.

Kushina Uzumaki...

The only familiar character I've met...

Ojii-chan says she's a distant relative. Although because of Kyuubi my Oto-san is against staying even near her.

I could hear their conversation but it seems they've slightly forgotten I was there.

I could only watch in silence in awe at the scene.

So this is how true Shinobi act. I feel completely out of place...

I felt Kushina's chakra suffocate the area but turn down quickly as she ran quicker then a cheetah.

In the end the only word I got out of the conversation was to remind Ojii-chan that we needed to get going.

As we went forward, I couldn't help but think.

They moved so fast....

I felt like I was moving in slow motion..

I didn't even have time to process what was happening until it was done.

So this is the effect of chakra...

It makes Shinobi nearly like superhumans..

A state I'll never reach..

If even for simple movements like this Shinobi use chakra...

How could I even ever hope to be one?

Kushina...

Despite being from the same clan even if she's a jinchuriki I can never reach that level of power...

I didn't feel it much but even just a second of her chakra felt..

Completely frightening.

So this is the power of chakra.

I thought as I watched that person gobble the grilling meat wildly.

Listening to their conversation, I've heard rumors... seems like she's recently married Minato..

I felt myself shiver at the thought.

Uzumaki Naruto will be born soon-..

Then the Kyuubi will destroy Konoha..

I remembered as I absent mindedly placed the meat on Ojii-chan's plate.

I was far too absorbed in my own worries to care about their conversation.

The story will soon start...

Perhaps after the war....the child of prophecy will be born...

And all trouble will start raining down..
