Naruto: Marrying Kushina Uzumaki From The Start!

"Tyrouge, Kushina has been captured!"

Tyrouge froze. A surge of memories rushed through his mind, both strange and familiar. Then, it hit him like a lightning bolt—he was in the Naruto world.

This was Konoha Village.

If these memories were accurate, it had been less than 10 years since the Second Great Ninja War. On the surface, it was an era of peace, but the tensions beneath were undeniable.

As for Tyrouge? He was just a lowly genin. An orphan taken in by the Uzumaki clan during Kushina's journey to Konoha.

Before him stood a group of young shinobi: Mikoto Uchiha, Minato Namikaze, and the Hyūga brothers.

Mikoto was his childhood friend and also Kushina's closest companion. Minato was the brilliant prodigy of their generation—already on the verge of becoming a legend.

And then there was Tyrouge—completely ordinary, barely above the academy's "dead last."

Suddenly, a mechanical voice echoed in his mind.

[System activated. Host's current situation detected. Generating three opening choices.]

[Option 1: Do nothing and avoid involvement. Reward: C-rank Taijutsu – Leaf Whirlwind.]

[Option 2: Sabotage the rescue and join the villains. Reward: Mangekyō Sharingan.]

[Option 3: Leave Konoha and join the rescue mission. Reward: Supreme Starter Pack.]

Tyrouge blinked, his heart racing. A system? A proper, full-fledged system.

He skimmed through the choices.

Option 1 was safe but boring—he wasn't about to waste his chance with some basic taijutsu like the Leaf Whirlwind. Option 2? That was practically suicide. Even if he somehow succeeded, the Sharingan would turn him into Konoha's enemy overnight.

That left Option 3.

The reward sounded promising, and besides, Tyrouge had no intention of being a background character.

Mikoto scowled, her voice sharp. "They took advantage of the Uchiha clan's festival to kidnap Kushina!"

Minato frowned. "I'll check her house for clues first."

Before anyone could respond, Minato's figure vanished in a blur.

"The Body Flicker Technique," someone murmured, awe in their voice.

Tyrouge felt a pang of jealousy but quickly shook it off. He turned to the others. "Let's spread out and look for clues. Every second counts!"

Mikoto crossed her arms, glaring at him. "You? Don't be ridiculous."

One of the Hyūga brothers chuckled. "Tyrouge, stick to what you know—like staying out of the way. You'll only slow us down."

"Yeah," another said mockingly, "a weakling like you trying to play the hero? Hilarious."

Tyrouge ignored them. Instead, he focused his chakra, channeling it to his feet. Without another word, he dashed toward Konoha's gate.

"Hey, where do you think you're going?"

The mocking shouts faded as Tyrouge pushed forward. His chakra-enhanced speed wasn't impressive compared to someone like Minato, but it was enough to leave the others behind.

---

When he reached the gate, a small crowd had gathered, blocking his path.

"Damn it," he muttered.

There was another way out—a lesser-known path near the village wall. Tyrouge veered off, but just as he arrived, he spotted a lone figure standing guard.

It was Fugaku Uchiha.

"Tyrouge? What are you doing here?" Fugaku's piercing eyes narrowed suspiciously.

Tyrouge pointed behind him. "Fugaku, look! Someone's sneaking around over there!"

As Fugaku turned, Tyrouge dashed past him.

"Hey! Come back here!" Fugaku's voice rang out, but Tyrouge didn't stop.

Mikoto and the Hyūga brothers arrived moments later.

"What's going on?" Mikoto demanded.

Fugaku sighed. "That idiot ran off. If he gets himself killed, it's not my fault."

---

Outside the village, Tyrouge climbed over the wall, his heart pounding.

[Mission progress: 50%.]

Tyrouge grinned but didn't stop. He needed to find something—anything—that would lead him to Kushina.

Moments later, he spotted a strand of red hair caught on a branch.

"Kushina!"

[Clue discovered. Mission progress: 60%. Continue tracking.]

Tyrouge frowned. The task wasn't done yet.

In his mind, the system's direction appeared, pointing northeast.

He glanced at the dark forest ahead, hesitation creeping in.

"This place... it's way too dark." His voice wavered. "Kinda creepy too..."

For a moment, he thought about turning back.

"I'm just a genin!" he muttered.

But then another voice rang in his head, mocking him. "So, you wanna go back and be a loser forever?"

Tyrouge clenched his fists. "The task is already 60% done. Maybe four more hairs will complete it..."

After a deep breath, he made his decision. "I'm going for it!"

---

At the gate of Konoha Village, a yellow blur shot into the night.

It was Minato Namikaze.

"Minato, did you find anything at Kushina's place?" asked a calm voice. It was none other than Sakumo Hatake, the White Fang of Konoha.

Minato held up a strand of red hair. "This must be Kushina's."

Sakumo nodded and summoned a ninja dog, letting it sniff the hair.

The dog barked and bolted northeast.

"The scent leads northeast," Sakumo said grimly. "But it's faint. We have to move fast."

"Can we catch up?" Minato asked anxiously.

Sakumo's eyes sharpened. "We'll try!" He turned to another ninja. "Report this to Lord Hokage. Minato and I will pursue them!"

With that, they disappeared into the shadows.

---

Meanwhile, Tyrouge found another strand of hair.

[Ding! Clue found! Task completion: 70%. Keep tracking!]

Tyrouge's brow furrowed as a memory surfaced.

In the original plot, Kushina left clues for Minato to find. By dawn, she'd already be at the border. And just when all hope seemed lost, Minato would save her, becoming her hero.

But now, with him collecting the clues, would Minato still find her?

"If my interference ruins the plot…" Tyrouge muttered. "This could screw everything up."

Shaking his head, he pressed on. "No way I'm quitting now!"

Soon, another strand appeared.

[Ding! Clue found! Task completion: 80%. Two more to go!]

Determined, Tyrouge moved quickly. The forest thinned, giving way to an open plain.

Landing on a treetop, his sharp eyes spotted a group fleeing in the distance. At the back, a girl with long red hair—Kushina Uzumaki.

His heart raced. There she is!

But before he could act—

"Who's there?!" A cold voice growled behind him.

Tyrouge's instincts screamed danger, but it was too late. A hand slammed into his back, sending him flying.

"Ugh!" Blood sprayed from his mouth as pain exploded in his chest. He crashed to the ground, gasping.

A ninja in a Kumogakure headband appeared above him, sneering.

"A weakling genin? You're wasting my time."

The Kumogakure ninja smirked and walked away, confident his attack had killed Tyrouge.

---

In the distance, Kushina heard the commotion. Her heart sank as the Kumogakure ninja laughed cruelly.

"See? Whoever tries to save you dies. Stop struggling!"

Kushina's fists clenched. For a moment, she thought of Tyrouge. "No… it can't be him."

---

Back at the tree, Tyrouge was barely conscious, blood pooling around him.

[Ding! Task complete! Target identified: Kushina Uzumaki. Reward unlocked: Supreme Starter Package!]

Through the haze of pain, Tyrouge gritted his teeth. "Open it. Now!"

[Ding! Supreme Starter Package opened! Reward: SSS-Rank Character Card - Hashirama Senju!]

[Fusion of card will grant all skills, jutsu, and combat experience of Hashirama Senju. Complete fusion time: 1 year. Begin fusion?]

"DO IT!" Tyrouge's voice was weak but determined.

Suddenly, a brilliant light engulfed him.

---

In his mind, a towering figure appeared—Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage.

Tyrouge felt himself merging with the legend, as if he was Hashirama.

"Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence!"

The ground trembled. Saplings burst forth, growing into massive trees in an instant. Their thick branches surged forward, consuming everything in their path.

---

Tyrouge's eyes snapped open.

The pain? Gone.

The cold? Gone.

Power? Overflowing.

His body buzzed with life, healing faster than he thought possible. His chakra reserves surged, far beyond anything he'd ever imagined.

"This… this is insane."

He stood, fists clenched. His strength had grown tenfold—no, a hundredfold.

And in his mind, he could feel it: the overwhelming power of Hashirama's Wood Release.

"Alright, let's do this." Tyrouge's lips curled into a smirk. "Your move, Kumogakure."
