Summary
Konoha has never been able to endure Naruto's existence. While the village accepted the presence of jinchuuriki, the new nature of the vessels stirred the old hatred.
Thus, Naruto had always been isolated with a visceral hatred that convinced him there must truly be something inherently wrong with him.
Uncovering the truth about himself becomes both an explanation for the years of suffering he endured and a deep-seated desire for redemption. Joining Team 7 opens a door to a new world. But Sasuke… Sasuke is a mystery. One that demands to be unraveled, a puzzle that draws Naruto with an obsessive, unstoppable interest. He cannot explain what it is about that scornful, surly boy that captivates him so, yet in Sasuke’s presence, a part of Naruto feels inexplicably at peace.
And when Sasuke betrays the village, the young ninja’s world collapses and the village confines Naruto, condemning him to solitude until a decision about his future can be made.
Alone, Naruto has no choice but to reflect on what lies ahead. All the while, the Akatsuki begins to move once more, their goals veiled in shadowA What If scenario where Naruto is not a jinchuuriki but rather the Nine-Tailed Fox itself, bound in human form.
