Hearts Of Wind

Three figures walked slowly down the path through the trees, which cast long shadows that crisscrossed the leaf strewn forest floor. On the right was a large older man with long spiky white hair and strange tattoos on his face.

On the left was a tall thin man who looked about 25. He had straight red hair that was tied back into a ponytail. He was wearing a red monks robe and had a walking stick, though he walked with an almost royal air. He had slited eyes and had fangs for teeth.

In between the two was a teenage boy who looked to be 15 or 16. He had spiky golden hair and piercing cerulean eyes. He was muscular and tall. His cheeks were adorned with three whisker shaped scars each.

"Three years, eh?" asked the white haired man "I no it really flew past didn't it?" replied the blond "HaHa not for him after we banned him from the bath houses" laughed the red head causing the oldest to pout.

"Ha, Ero-sannin" laughed the teenager "how many times do I have to tell you not to call me that, Naruto no baka!!!!" yelled the white haired man.

"cool it Jiraya hes going to call you that until the day he dies" said the red head calmly

"That's only because you encourage him Kyubi" said Jiraya

The conversation died of into a comfortable silence as the trio continued to walk down the path until they saw a huge wall looming up over the trees.

The blond stopped suddenly.

"so is it time for me to go back inside?" asked kyubi sadly

… "no" stated Naruto getting shocked and confused looks from both of the other two "you can stay out for now but we'll have to call you something else for now"… "how about Kai?"

"Ok im fine with anything that will keep me out for a little while" replied Kyubi gratefully.

"well with that settled lets get going" said Jiraya excitedly

"o you just want to see Tsunde's tits you old pervert" naruto teased

"that's super pervert to you baka" replied Jiraya happily

The trio walked right up to the gate and walked right through not even bothering to check in with the guards. As soon as they were through Naruto took off and ran right up a giant pillar. Wow its great to be home he thought while surveying the whole city. This place hasn't changed a bit… except they added the old hag up there to the monument, he thought before yelling

" KONOHA, UZUMAKI NARUTO THE NEXT HOKAGE HAS RETURNED" at the top of his lungs.

Sakura and team 6, formerly known as the Konohamaru corps were running an errand for the hokage and talking about when naruto was going to return when they herd some idiot shouting a bunch of nonsense. Looking towards the noise Sakura's eyes focused in on a figure standing on top of a huge pillar, and she took off towards it, leaving team 6 confused and in the dust.

When she got to the column Sakura gave it a little "tap" with her pinkie causing the whole structure to shake and throw Naruto off into one hell of a painful hug from a super powered girl who hadn't seen him in 3 whole years, needless to say he would be sore in the morning.

That is at least until he poofed into smoke while the real Naruto gave her a hug, though a slightly less violent one, from behind.

Wow he's gotten hot was the only thought that ran through her head, the only one at least until Naruto and Konohamaru started comparing their new and improved Sexy no Jutsus. Then the only thing she was thinking was Kill blond and little one at all cost. And she proceded to follow through on that thought until Jiraya and Kyubi showed up.

"Hello Jiraya-sama, whose this?" whos this asked Sakura

"Oh that's Kai-sensei he helped train me," answered a slightly bruised Naruto

"Oh well nice to meet you Kai-san, I'm Haruno Sakura"

"Nice to meet you to Naruto has told me much about you"

"Really what has he said?"

"Well he said that you were smart, strong, funny and beautiful," said Kyubi causing Sakura to smile and blush deeply

"He also said that you have a temper with a fuse shorter than a bottle rocket and are one hell of a bitch sometimes" added Kyubi

HA that's for the time you tricked me into going to that gay whorehouse Kyubi told a now very severely bruised Naruto through their mental link

Basterd Fox replied Naruto

"Hey we need to go see Tusunde," yelled Jiraya getting everyone's attention

(A.N: im going to skip over the meeting with Tusunde and the bell test, just assume that it went the same way as the magna and anime)

Hokages office:

"So who is he really" asked Tusunde

"I already told you we met him and he started to help train Naruto so he stuck" replied Jiraya

"OH cut the shit already we both know that you wouldn't allow just anybody to teach Naruto unless he was teaching him things that you couldn't which you didn't mention and Naruto didn't show at the test"

"HA you think Naruto was going all out today?" laughed Jiraya

"we'll yes apart from using Kyubi's chakra which he wouldn't do against his own teacher that's just not like him"

"no Naruto wasn't even trying today, if he had used even a small fraction of HIS power not even Kyubi's he could have beaten Kakashi in a matter of minutes"

"WHAT, I'm sorry Jiraya but not even you could teach him that much this fast" said Tusunde in a non-beliving voice.

"And that's where Kai comes in, I Taught everything I could to Naruto in terms of The Rasengan, chakra control and jutsus but he just absorbed everything I threw at him so fast that after a year I couldn't teach him much more"

"And Kai could teach him enough for two years. How powerful is he? I've never heard of him, Where's he from?" asked Tusunde in a shocked voice

silence set in as Jiraya pondered something in his head. After a couple of minutes he spoke cautiously "What if I told you that Kai wasn't really named Kai, and that he…taught Naruto to control all of Kybies power?"

"NO, who is he? How could he do that?"

"What if I told you that Kai wasn't exactly human?" Jiraya asked "Or that he had a bad history with this city, but for something that wasn't his fault? What would you do?" he continued slowly and carefully.

"Well I guess it depends on what he did but if he's that good I would try to get him forgiven especially if he could prove that he was innocent." She replied in a hushed voice.

Jiraya took a peep breath and said "Kai, is actually Kyubi."

"What!?!?! How is he out? Is he going to go crazy and kill us again? Why would he want to teach Naruto? Why is he a human?"

"Whoa easy killah one question at a time. First of all the attack wasn't his fault, he was possessed by a certain someone to attack us and no he's not going to hurt anyone here unless they seriously threaten Naruto or any of his Precious people. He wants to help Naruto to make up for what he accidentally caused Narutos childhood to be like…. Also because naruto cleansed him from his evil. He is human because that is one of the forms he can take and the easiest to operate and blend in with. How he got out… well that's going to take a while to answer since it really is a two part thing"

"I have plenty of time so get telling" said Tusunde

"Well there are something's that im a little fuzzy on so how about I get Him and Naruto to come and tell you"

"Wait, just one more thing" said Tusunde "so for the last two years of his training you just sat around and did "Research" ?"

"No I started teaching him seals and eventually started working on a specific technique…it called Hirashin" Jiraya answered while puffing away in a cloud of smoke leaving a shocked Tusunde to wait.
