Orange Monster of Kabuki

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Gintama

Chapter 1

It was a snowy day as one of our main protagonists was walking through the snow. This was Gintoki Sakata or Gin for short, a young man with silvery-blue hair in a natural perm. Bordeaux-coloured dead fish eyes.

Where was our hero going? To the grave of his deceased mentor Shouyou Yoshida, the man that basically raised Gin.

"Why is it snowing?" Gin thought as he walked closer to the grave "Why does this scene feel familiar?"

Gin approached the makeshift grave but Gin noticed something or someone behind the makeshift grave leaning against the grave made out of stone and wood. The grave itself was basically a large rock engraved with the name and a small wooden cross in front of it.

It was a makeshift grave after all.

Gin placed the food down in front as the figure behind the grave started to talk. "Hey… are those manju, old man?" the soft voice asked Gin. The voice was that of a child. "Can I have one?"

Gin had tick mark on his head for being called an old man. "Oi I am not an old man! Besides you have to ask my sensei first! Ask him!"

The child grabbed the manju and started to eat it.

"Oi, if your just gonna eat it what did my sensei say?" Gin asked the child.

"I don't know, the dead don't talk. They also don't eat ramen" the child said.

Gin blinked. "Wait a minute, this scene, this set-up… IT'S THE SAME WHEN I MEET BAA-SAN"

Gin took a closer look at the child. The child was a boy with bright blonde hair and blue eyes and… three whisker marks…

"WHY IS NARUTO HERE? HE SHOULD BE IN HIS OWN SERIES!" Gin thought. Gin pulled out his Jump Manga and flipped through to the Naruto page. "Ah" he said as he figured out the reason why Naruto would be here.

The Naruto manga had ended on its 700th chapter even though there is a sequel to the Naruto manga.

Gin looked at Naruto "Oi brat how long have you been living here?"

"I don't know how long I have been here but it felt like hours maybe a day or so" Naruto answered.

Gin sighed he hoped Otose-baasan wouldn't flip with what he was about to do. "Hey, if you don't have anywhere to go… why don't you come with me?"

"Why would I go with you, a stranger?" Naruto asked the samurai.

"I could teach you Bushido like my sensei taught me, and I guess you'll also have a family as well" Gin said to the whiskered boy.

"A family… that sounds… nice" Naruto looked up at Gintoki. "Who are you mister?"

"Gintoki Sakata now what's yours" Gin said alreading knowing the blonde's name.

"Naruto… Naruto Uzumaki"

"Wrong!"

"Huh"

"I said that name is wrong" Gintoki said.

"How can my name be wrong?" Naruto said back.

"Your name is Naruto Sakata now" Gin said as Naruto's eyes widened. "Or don't you remember me saying that you'll also have a family as well a few lines above"

Naruto finally had a family something that he always dreamed of having and now it was a reality. Gin looked at Naruto as he had some work to do with him first he had to fix his malnutrition.

Gin picked his ear as he looked down at Naruto "Come on Ototo lets go"

"Where?" Naruto asked his new older brother.

"Home" Gin said as they walked to where Naruto will call home.

Otose Snack House

Gin was now in front of Otose Snack House the place he was currently living at and soon to be home for Naruto. Gin walked inside followed by Naruto.

"Hey Baa-san, were home" Gin lazily called out as a woman walked out.

"Gin where is my ren-" Otose stopped her sentence as she saw Naruto. "Gin who is this"

Gin told Naruto to go upstairs to where he was living and now with Naruto out of earshot he could talk to Otose.

"That was Naruto my new little brother"

"YOU BROUGHT ANOTHER FREELOADER HERE! AND YOU JUST MOVED IN NOT THAT LONG AGO!" She shouted at the natural perm samurai.

Gin sighed he had a feeling this was coming. "Baa-san, I met him the same way I met you"

Otose looked at Gin "You mean at a grave, snowing and eating food" Gin nodded. She sighed as took a puff of smoke from a cigarette. "And why bring him here of all places?"

"Because… I felt like it"

"THAT'S NOT A GOOD ANWSER!"

"Baa-san the boy has malnutrition, an orphan, homeless" Gin said "Should I go on?"

"No" She said as she looked Gintoki in the eyes. "And I suppose you're going to look after him?"

"Yeah why not" Gin shrugged "Another me would be helpful"

Otose took another puff. "Well he is your responsibility from now on"

"…He also needs a mother figure" Gin said as he has his hands behind his head.

"What are you getting at?" She asked.

"Eh isn't it obvious, you'll be the mother figure he needs" Gin said. "And I'll be the super amazing brother"

Otose took a minute to think over being a mother figure to the boy Gintoki brought back and claimed as his new little brother. Gin was becoming lazy and in the future he would become even lazier. She could raise him to pay the rent on time and she wanted to raise a child with her husband but sadly he was no longer with them.

She saw Gin as a son with the short time he was here and maybe she would see the kid as another son. She took another puff of the cigarette before putting it out in the ashtray. "I'll be the kid's mother figure" Smoking around kids wasn't a good idea. "So what's the kid's name?"

"Naruto, Naruto Sakata"

"What was his old name?"

"Uzumaki"

"Well you better get to the kid then"

"Yeah yeah" Gin said waving his hand as he left.

Gin walked to where he told Naruto to go, the young blonde was sitting on one of the couches in the room.

"Oi brat" Gin called out to the blue eyed boy. Naruto looked up at his older brother. "We're going to get you some new clothes" He said. "Can't have him in kill me orange like in the manga, my eyes will hurt just looking at him"

Gin looked through some of the closets until he found some suitable clothes. "Here put this on" Gin said as he threw the clothes at Naruto.

Naruto left with the clothes and after changing came back in the room. Gin looked up from his manga to see Naruto.

Naruto was wearing the same outfit as Gin but with opposite colours. White boots, white shirt and pants with blue linings and a black yukata with golden patterns worn sloppily draped over his left shoulder just like Gintoki.

Gin stood up checking Naruto's outfit before walking over to him "Now we have to fix that malnutrition" Gin said poking Naruto's sides. "You must be hungry"

Just then Naruto's stomach grumbled. Gin's dead fish eyes looked at Naruto "Come on I'll introduce you to Otose" He said leading Naruto back into the Snack House. "And I have to make sure you don't get addicted to ramen, I don't want to be broke forever! I just jinxed myself didn't I"

When Naruto meet Otose, Otose swore she was looking at a palette swap Gin but with whisker marks. Otose checked Naruto and made a healthy diet for him to eat that will help with his malnutrition.

Over the few days Gin taught Naruto Bushido from what he learnt from his sensei Shouyou Yoshida, well the parts where he actually listened when he wasn't asleep in class.

He looked over his new brother and he needed a weapon maybe a Bokuto like his Toyako Bokuto, Naruto could have a sword due to the Bakufu's ban on swords. He could order a Bokuto through the same shopping channel he uses to buy a replacement sword for when his own Bokuto breaks.

Gintoki wondered if he could just get a replica for him to use, there was also the option of finding his own sword but that may cause a few problems. Gintoki managed to get Naruto his own Bokuto from the same place Gintoki got his from however his didn't have Lake Toya inscribed on it.

A few more days passed and Gin decided to go into a casino with Naruto. That's when he found out about Naruto's luck in gambling.

Gintoki had money symbols in his eyes at the money Naruto just won. Gin then took Naruto to the casino to win a small fortune and leave so they wouldn't get kicked out and banned from the casino. It was a wonder how Gin smuggled Naruto into the casino due to his age.

With the small fortune Gin had enough money for rent and had enough for his manga and parfait as well as his strawberry milk. Since Naruto was the one to win the money, he gave Naruto his own share.

The days turned to weeks and then to months. Otose was glad that the rent was being paid and eventually Naruto had no signs of malnutrition. In the Kabuki District Naruto was known as Kin or Kintoki due to literally being a palette swapped version of Gintoki.

But with whisker marks.

He was also known as the Orange Monster of Kabuki. You were probably wondering why he was called the Orange Monster of Kabuki if he didn't have any orange on him. It was actually his chakra, since he was from the Elemental Nations he had chakra but didn't know how to use his chakra but it did leak out causing an orange aura around Naruto. Also an orange fox could be seen behind Naruto when he was angry.

As the months passed into a few years Naruto who was a part of the Gin's Yorozuya got a job request involving Naruto.

"What does the job say" Gintoki asked the person who grew to see as an actually little brother.

Naruto blinked at the request before reading it aloud "Plot Convenience"

Gin looked at the note and it did say plot convenience on it. "What type of bullshit is this!" The silver haired samurai thought.

"Plot convenience huh" Naruto said "Is it ever going to tell me or is it something that I'll only know when I return from the job?"

Gin shrugged. He didn't know what the author was thinking.

"Should I take it?"

"Sure if it pays well"

"It says the pay is around 5 billion yen"

"EH IT NEVER SAID HOW MUCH IT WAS GOING TO BE PAID BEFORE WHY SHOW UP NOW! BESIDES THAT'S HALF AS MUCH AS KILLING A MACH 20 OCTOPUS THAT'S TEACHING A CLASS TO KILL HIM!" Gin shouted.

"Maybe I can haggle for more money" Naruto said rubbing his chin.

"That's a good idea and all but we will be fine with your luck"

"Hmm that's true" Naruto said. "But what about the plot how will it progress"

"The author will think of something" Gin said as he went back to reading his manga.

Suddenly a phone started to ring as Naruto picked it up to answer. "Hello? Yeah this is Yorozuya" Naruto said to whoever was on the other side of the phone. Naruto looked other to Gintoki "It's for you"

Gin took the phone. "Moshi moshi? Yes this is the Great Mighty Gin"

"Please don't sing that song…" Naruto thought

"Huh? What do you mean he has to go on the job?" Gin asked "What do you mean we have to progress the story?"

"Looks like I'm going on that job then" Naruto said as he stood up.

"Who is this?" Gin asked "A-a-author-san!" He said in shock, Gin didn't even think that the author would talk to him.

"Okay fine he'll go" Gin said. "How long is it anyway?"

Naruto was ready to go and he grabbed his bokuto, he was pretty much set to go, he didn't need to carry much anyway.

"Eh that long, what type of job is this that the pay is 5 billion yen?" Gin asked "Eh a secret till he comes back and tells us himself? THAT'S A BULLSHIT"

"Whatever the job is its paying good money"

"Fine you win he'll go" Gin them hung up the phone on the author.

"I wouldn't upset the author to much Nii-san"

"What's the worst that can happen" Gin said as Naruto replied.

"You'll be stuck in Kanashibari"

"T-t-trapped b-by a-a-a g-g-g-ghost!" Gin looked horrified.

"Well I'm going now" Naruto said as he started walking away.

"Yeah yeah, I'll see you when you come back"

Naruto then left for the job he was requested for, he would be in for a surprise when he got back.
