How To Survive In The World Of Naruto With Fragmented Memories

"Take a seat over there" a middle-aged man wearing strange green leaf pattern clothes while smoking gestured for Yuuma to take his seat in front of the camera, Yuuma took his seat as he lowered his scarf as to not block his face. When the photo was taken the man pasted it on his application form while pointing in the direction he had to go to next.

When he entered the room he was met with Yagura wearing his Kage Haori without the hat, left behind his was Ao and next to him was several middle-aged masked men who stood tall behind Yagura. Here Yuuma was questioned about his expectations as a Ninja and other personal questions. When the questions were complete Yagura smiled "What is your goal as a Ninja?" Yuuma gave Yagura a confident look as he stated boldly "That is to reach the summit as the strongest of all, I am fine with being the shadow of Kirigakure since I am not fit to chase for the Mizukage seat"

"Oh? I honestly thought you would dream to have the Mizukage seat?" Yagura spoke to Yuuma with a playful smile, Yuuma smirked "I rather not, the paperwork will kill me sooner than a kunai" Hearing this Yagura began to laugh as he found it extremely pleasant to talk with this boy, Ao had difficulty to keep himself from sighing as he knew his disciple hated paperwork but never to this extent. "Well, at least you know that a great position comes with great responsibilities" Yagura nodded before he asked, "Do you want to be a regular ninja or would you like to try your hands in becoming a Hunter-nin?"

"If I may ask what is the difference?" Yuuma asked politely, Yagura turned to look at Ao who nodded as he answers Yuuma's questions, "Hunter-nin is a subsidiary division of the Anbu who specializes in dealing with traitors and deserters of the Village, unlike regular Ninjas, you will have the privilege to access the scroll library including special training grounds" Yuuma nodded before he asked a more important question, "What is the monthly salary?" Ao and the other Anbu looked at Yuuma with shock thinking the boy would agree instantly but instead ask about the salary.

Yagura chuckled before he took over the answering, "You will naturally be paid several times more than what you can earn as a regular genin, not to mention your food will be provided as well" Yuuma nodded "Where is the contract, let me sign it!" Ao slapped his face wondering why his disciple would sign up more because of the food that will be provided free of charge, Yagura chuckled as he waved his hand and an Anbu appeared holding a scroll. When Yagura opened the scroll there was a list of names of all the youngest Anbu apprentices that is still training, "You can sign your name here" Yuuma nodded as he picks up the brush, dip it lightly in the ink before signing his name on the scroll.

"With that, you will be part of the Anbu, but now that you signed you can no longer share your personal details with anyone, anything you hear, see or experience during your time working as n Anbu will only be known to only you and your supervisor without anyone else knowing." Yagura began to list the general rules of the Anbu before he smirked, "Your superior will be Ao as arranged by your sister, your first mission will be in 1 year from now. Train hard" Yagura stood up as he walked out leaving only Ao and Yuuma in the room. Little did both Yagura and Yuuma realize that this would be the last time the two of them would see each other.

"To think you would aim for the food" Ao reprimanded Yuuma by lightly smacking the back of his head, Yuuma dodged the strike as he glared at his sensei, "What am I suppose to do, I'm currently broke and I don't want to depend on Big Sis Mei for everything now do I?" Yuuma complained to his sensei feeling he was not treated fairly, Ao only smirked "You better train hard boy" He hands over a stack of papers that consists of the training exercises Yuuma had to complete, reading this Yuuma felt a cold sweat running down his spine.

"I will be gone for a year at most, so do your best to complete these exercises. If not, I will increase it" Hearing Ao's words Yuuma felt like he was facing Yama who slammed down his last chance with no room for negotiations, the list of training was simply crazy well for Yuuma it felt like it was crazy since it even included his break time and sleep time precisely. "Yes sensei" Ao nodded with a satisfied smile while Yuuma was led to the main office of the Mizukage, the entrance for the Anbu was located in the Disabled toilet for females.

"Welcome to the Hunter-nin Division, since your still an apprentice there will only class early in the morning for Genjutsu, Taijutsu, Kenjutsu as well as Ninjutsu an hour for each, afterwards how you spend your day is up to you." One of the Anbu explained the situation for Yuuma, 'Spend time how I want? No offence old man you think I'm stupid?' Yuuma thought as he listened to the old man leading him around the underground offices and training rooms, Yuuma knew they were being monitored actively once they join Anbu as apprentices so the free time will determine if they pass or fail.

One year has come and gone, it could have been said to be one of the hardest trials Yuuma had to face when the news of Yagura Karatachi the Mizukage of the Village was confirmed dead during his travels for a meeting. Because of this, Yuuma's sister Mei Terumi was made to take the seat as Mizukage temporary until it becomes official and not many know of this even Yuuma was left in the dark.

Yuuma age 7 was currently standing in front of Ao who handed over a white mask towards Yuuma. "From now on your name will be Nonemu, your first mission will be to hunt down several deserters located in the Wave Country. Leave none alive" Yuuma nodded at Ao's instruction as he places the white mask over his face, currently, Yuuma was wearing a black shirt and black pants, with white padded armour over his c.h.e.s.t and shoulders, shin guards as well as bracers to protect his body.

"Also, your sister asked about you, what should I tell her?" Ao asked Yuuma who was about to leave, "Tell her, her little brother will make her proud" Yuuma spoke confidently before leaving the Anbu office in the darkness of the night heading straight for the harbour that will take him across the ocean to reach the Wave country, it has been a year since Yuuma joined the Anbu and he was accepted officially six months ago when they realized that he trained even harder in his free time which made them respect Yuuma who took the responsibilities of the Anbu seriously.

Because of his multi-talents, he was given the moniker "Nandemoya" which means Jack of all trades, this stems off from Yuuma who placed extra efforts to train his ninjutsu, genjutsu, kenjutsu as well as his taijutsu at the same time instead of focusing on specializing in one of them. Yuuma felt he would waste his talents if he does not exploit everything, so even if he were to grow stronger in a slower pace than others by the time he reaches the top he would be able to stand above them.

"Morning young lad, you booked a trip?" One of the sailors who stood guard for the ship that was about to take off was surprised to see Yuuma who arrived without his mask on and was wearing a black cloak over his body, "Yes sir, the name's Souma." The sailor nodded as he checked the list of names and ticked off the name Souma while allowing Yuuma to enter the ship.

Yuuma entered the ship through the door he was welcomed by a massive open hall where many people were gambling, even women who were wearing revealing clothes while seducing the rich men of their money. It was a mini-casino Ship that was run by a rich family from the Wave Country who usually does a round trip for those who wish to visit The Water Country, The Lightning Country and the Tea Country. Although Whirlpool country was part of it as well until the Uzumaki's were slaughtered in a battle.

Yuuma shook his head as he went to a staff member who guided him to his room where he relaxed since it will take a few days for him to reach the Wave Country, Yuuma opened the scroll that contained the information of his mission. From the looks of it, these were previously ninjas responsible for protecting the borders of the Water Country but was persuaded to become Rouge Ninjas by Zabuza Momochi although the current whereabouts of Zabuza are unknown, he was included as a target should he appears before Yuuma.

"Sir, would you like to place your order for Dinner?" One of the staff knocked on Yuuma's door, Yuuma opened the door seeing it was one of those revealing clothes women who would normally seduce people when the lady saw how young Yuuma was she blushed feeling a bit ashamed as if she committed a grave mistake. "Yes, could I have a bowl of Ramen?" Yuuma answered her with an innocent look on his face causing the lady's heart to feel pain but she still nodded before leaving.

Yuuma sneered 'Bet that woman did not expect to face a child' he thought before closing the door where he started his nature transformation training which was also a factor why he was given that moniker, the more natures he had the harder he had to train to master them all.

"He said he will make you proud" Ao spoke while leaning against the wall, Mei was overlooking the ship that was taking off that contained Yuuma. It will be the first time that Yuuma will separate in a long distance from Mei who loved him dearly as her younger brother, "How is the investigation in regards to Yargura going?" Ao shook his head, "Ever since we realized he had been controlled, we managed to dispel it but we never learned of who done it except for the fact it was done by an Uchiha. Although their purpose of doing this is yet to be confirmed"

Mei sighed before turning to face Ao, "We have to keep investigating till we find a lead, the scars of the Blood Mist Yagura left behind will be difficult to remove... If only I could rather go on a journey with Yuuma" Ao sighed but ever since Mei took up the mantle to become the Mizukage temporary without many knowing of it, he chose to give her his full support. 'Come back soon Yuuma, or your sister will come look for you instead!' Ao Thought before disappearing.
