Naruto Divergent

Chapter 1

Orochimaru, the strongest jounin of the Leaf Village, was returning with Anko Mitarashi, a girl with light brown, pupil-less eyes. Anko wore a fitted mesh body suit that covered her from neck to thighs. As they slept, Orochimaru sensed that one of his trapped had been triggered. Blocking kunai, he saw a young boy with chin-length purple hair, parted in the middle, and orange eyes glowing with a dōjutsu.

Dodging the boy's attacks easily, Orochimaru noticed a familiar comprehension in his eyes, seen only in Hyuga and Uchiha clan members. Intrigued, he stopped the fight with a pair of sneaks, asking the boy, "What's your name?"

The boy, Okami Mori, responded, "I'm here for the bounty on you."

Anko laughed, "You're too weak to beat him."

Orochimaru, looking into Okami's eyes, proposed, "How about coming to my village? I can make you stronger and, of course, provide food."

Okami's stomach rumbled, and after a moment's consideration, he agreed. "Alright, I'll come with you."

The journey to the Leaf Village was filled with training sessions. Orochimaru, intrigued by Okami's potential, focused on honing his skills. In return, Okami soaked in every bit of knowledge, the village's secrets gradually revealing themselves to him.

One evening, under the village's moonlit canopy, Orochimaru and Okami found themselves in a training ground.

Orochimaru, wearing his customary snake-like smirk, commented, "Your progress has been impressive, Okami. But there's more to learn."

Okami, catching his breath, nodded. "I'm ready. Teach me."

As the training intensified, Okami's eyes glowed brighter, reflecting newfound strength. Orochimaru, observing from a distance, noted, "Your potential is limitless, Okami. Embrace it."

Days turned into weeks, and Okami's bond with Orochimaru deepened. Anko, once skeptical, witnessed the transformation firsthand. One evening, she approached Okami with a smirk. "Never thought you'd survive Orochimaru's training. What's your secret?"

Okami grinned, "Adaptability, I guess. And a good mentor."

Anko raised an eyebrow, "You actually like him?"

Okami shrugged, "He's making me stronger. That's all I need."

As the village sensed Okami's growing power, whispers of curiosity spread. In a marketplace encounter, a villager asked, "You're one of  Orochimaru's apprentices, right?"

Okami, still adjusting to the attention, nodded. "Yeah, that's me."

The villager chuckled, "Well, good luck. Orochimaru's not the easiest master."

Later that day, Okami found Orochimaru in his lab, surrounded by scrolls and potions.

Orochimaru looked up, "Ah, Okami. What brings you here?"

Okami hesitated, then asked, "Why did you take me in? What do you gain from this?"

Orochimaru's eyes glinted, "Power comes in many forms, Okami. Your potential intrigued me. Together, we can achieve great things."

Back in their training ground, Okami faced an opponent, showcasing his newfound skills. Orochimaru observed, a spark of pride in his eyes.

Anko, watching from the shadows, smirked, "Looks like you've made something out of him, Orochimaru sensei."

Orochimaru chuckled, "He still has much to learn, but he's on the right path."

Under Orochimaru's intensive training, Okami Mori honed his skills to a level where he could keep pace with many of the village's special jounins, even when abstaining from using his unique eyes. Alongside physical prowess, Okami discovered the extent of his special powers - a dōjutsu with remarkable extrasensory abilities.
