The Neglected Blue Ace of Konoha (New Cover)

Chapter 8

Naruto woke up with Natsu shaking him saying "Tou-san, wake up, we're hungry"

"Hm... what?" said Naruto with a groggy voice

"Get up, we're hungry," said Natsu

"Alright, just let me get up and get yourselves to the table"

"Alright," Natsu said as Naruto got off the couch and walked into the kitchen. He grabbed some fish, rice, and miso, then felt someone tugging on his pants and looked down to see Wendy with a blanket looking at him "Yes?"

"I'm hungry"

"I know, I'm making breakfast now" and picked her up and sat her in the new booster seat he just bought "now wait here," he said and kissed her on the forehead making her giggle. Naruto made some fish with rice and miso soup for breakfast. Natsu and Gajeel looked at him questionably

"Eat, it's good for you"

"We're just not used to it," said Gajeel "We usually eat more meat than this" and started eating

"Yeah, I've never seen so little meat on a plate before," said Natsu as he started to dig in while Wendy was just eating without question. After they stopped eating, Naruto washed the dishes and said that they were coming with him to train with his students

"Really?" asked Natsu

"Yes, now get dressed. I'm going to start training you along with my genin"

"YES! COME ONE GAJEEL, WE DON'T WANT TO BE LATE!"

"I'm coming bro, just wait for a moment," said Gajeel as Naruto got Wendy dressed in a cute blue dress and blue ballet flats. He then tied her hair into two ponytails while Natsu wore a plain red shirt and brown shorts with brown hiking boots. Gajeel wore a black shirt with brown shorts and black boots

"Are we ready?" asked Naruto as he held Wendy's hand

"YUP!"

"Yeah"

"Ok, now let's go. We're going to the Forest of Death for training and be careful, I don't want to lose you" said Naruto as they walked out the door with them trailing behind. The walk through the village to training ground 44 had a few bumps like some of the adults throwing rocks, but Naruto just sent them skybound and they continued walking. They reached the Forest of Death and saw Konohamaru, Udon, and Moegi waiting there, Konohamaru was the first to speak saying

"Hey sensei, aren't those the kids we rescued last week?"

"Yes they are and they are now my responsibility"

"Meaning?"

"I'm their father now"

"WHAT! BUT YOU'RE ONLY 14!"

"DON'T YOU THINK I KNOW THAT!" shouted Naruto back as Konohamaru flinched back "I couldn't leave them at the orphanage because I know what goes on there and I know what it's like to be alone. So I spared them the pain and took some responsibility, now get to training, you know what to do. Udon, start working on your Suiton, here are some scrolls" and handed Udon the scrolls to the Water Clone Technique and Water Release: Gunshot. Turning to Moegi "Moegi, train your Donton and Suiton, here are the scrolls to the Water Prison Technique and Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall,"

"Yes sensei"

"Now Konohamaru," he said as he looked at him

"Yes?"

"Since you already know a B-rank jutsu"

"What are you talking about"

"Ash Pile Burning, you used it against that sound-nin"
