Naruto: Rogue Ninja from the Start, Mastering the Flying Thunder God and Eight Gates

Naruto transmigrates into himself and is tricked by Mizuki into stealing the Scroll of Seals, only to be hunted through the forest. After his sign-in System activates, he must choose between two factions. He decisively picks the dark rogue-ninja path, copying the Flying Thunder God and the Eight Gates.

When Mizuki drinks Orochimaru's secret potion and transforms into a tiger-like monster, knocking out one Shadow Clone after another, Naruto has already opened the Third Gate of the Eight Gates: green chakra surges around him, his short blond hair stands on end, and one punch smashes half of Mizuki's face. The ANBU watching from a tree can barely believe their eyes. When did he learn taijutsu? And that's not all. The instant his kunai leaves his hand, the Flying Thunder God activates. He appears behind Mizuki out of nowhere and beats his former teacher into unconsciousness.

When Iruka arrives, all he sees is the wreckage and Naruto's calm face. "I beat Mizuki. I took the Scroll of Seals, too. Got a problem with that?"

The Third Hokage laughs in his office, deep smile lines creasing his face. "This kid looks even more like his father than the Yellow Flash did."

Naruto walks down the street clutching his Konoha forehead protector as the villagers look at him with disgust. He pulls it off and stuffs it into his pocket, murmuring, "I'll leave on my own in a year. Nobody's going to stop me."
