Naruto the Beast Within
Naruto had just got done using the Shadow Clone Jutsu upon Mizuki the night before. They had a week before the time for the team selections. Naruto decided that he would go see the Hokage. On the way there he was bombarded by angry looks. Ignoring them he hopped up to the roofs and entered the Hokage's office via the window.
"Hokage-jiji, is there any way for me to train my body extremely well?" Naruto asked not realizing until it was too late, that the Hokage was talking to someone already.
The man that the Hokage was talking to had waste length spiky white hair tied back into a pony tail, with two shoulder-length bangs that framed his both sides of his face. He had red lines that ran down from his eyes and he wore a horned headband with the kanji for 'Oil', a green short shirt kimono with matching pants with a mesh shirt underneath.
"Ah! Naruto! Come in! This is my old student Jiraiya of the Sannin. Jiraiya, this is Naruto." the old man stated.
"Hmm? I see. So you want to train your body extremely well eh? Well, have you ever thought about gravity seals?" Jiraiya asked.
"Seals? No. I don't know how to do Fuuinjutsu." Naruto admitted.
"I see. Well I'll train you." Jiraiya stated.
"Really? Why?" Naruto asked.
"Because I want to and it's the right thing to do seeing as you are obviously in need of some help." Jiraiya stated.
"Alright! Let's go!" Naruto yelled happily as Jiraiya turned to look at Sarutobi.
"Meet me at Training Ground 27 in 15 minutes." Jiraiya stated looking at Naruto only to see him not there anymore.
"Kid must be excited." Jiraiya muttered.
Training Ground 27, 15 minutes later
Naruto was at Training Ground 27 with Jiraiya whom was giving out orders.
"I want you to run around this Training Ground 15 times, do 100 push-ups, 100 sit ups, and 100 squats then we will work on something else. Now hold still while I apply the Gravity Seals." Jiraiya stated as he took out a brush and some ink.
Naruto giggled at the feeling of the brush on his skin and when the hermit was done he set off to do as he was told, noticing that his body was moving more sluggishly than before.
2 hours later
Once Naruto was done, he noticed that it was much easier to move than before.
"Alright. Now we'll work on your chakra control. I would like for you to make as many Shadow Clones as possible." Jiraiya ordered.
"Right! Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Naruto shouted as 2000 Shadow Clones appeared.
"Good! Now then. I want 100 of you to perform the Transformation Jutsu and then go to the library to read everything there, 100 of you running up a tree using only your chakra to stick to it, 100 of you trying to hold this leaf to your forehead using only your chakra, 100 of you walking on water, 100 of you taking this senbon and running it over your skin, 100 of you learning the Dragon Fist Taijutsu, 100 of you learning the Toad Kumite Style, 100 of you learning the Wolf Howl Style Taijutsu, and the last 1200 of you learning the jutsus from these scrolls." Jiraiya yelled.
And with that they all set out to do their little jobs with only the real Naruto being left.
"Now I want you to sit there and meditate for an hour and then release one Shadow Clone at a time until they are all gone and then I want you to process the information that you have gathered from it." Jiraiya ordered.
"Hai!" Naruto said as he sat down and began to meditate.
An hour later Naruto set out to dispel the Shadow Clones one by one and by the end of it, he had such a rush of information and memories that he had a migraine for about 30 minutes.
"Thank the log for the fox." Naruto muttered under his breath.
Naruto's stomach then chose that moment to speak up.
"I guess that I'm hungry." Naruto stated.
"Tell you what. I have one more thing that I want to do first so after this I'll treat you to whatever you want and all you can eat." Jiraiya said not realizing his mistake.
"Alright, what is it?" Naruto asked.
"This." Jiraiya said as he pulled out a slip of paper and then explained that he wanted Naruto to send some chakra into it.
Naruto did so and was surprised when it split into 4 pieces, one quarter turning into ash in an instant, one quarter turned into dust, one quarter crumpled up, and the last one got soaked.
"Amazing, Naruto. You have an affinity to all 5 elements." Jiraiya stated.
"Really?" Naruto asked.
"Yes. Now do me one more favor. Send chakra into your eyes for me." Jiraiya said.
"Fine, but you owe me." Naruto said as he did so and was surprised when his vision became sharper.
"Amazing. You have the Rinnegan, Naruto." Jiraiya stated.
"What's that?" Naruto asked.
"The Rinnegan is a Dojutsu stated to be far more powerful than both the Sharingan and the Byakugan combined." Jiraiya said.
"I see." Naruto stated intelligently, not at all like him in the least.
Naruto then cast a very powerful Genjutsu that required a lot of chakra over his eyes so that they looked to be normal.
After Lunch and a long whine from Jiraiya later
"Alright gaki. Back to work. I want you to make another mass of Shadow Clones." Jiraiya said as he amped up Naruto's Gravity Seals.
"Right! Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Naruto said making 5000 Shadow Clones.
(A/N: Remember, Naruto used a lot of Shadow Clones to begin with and over 300 of them was working on chakra control and most of them was working on learning jutsus.)
"Alright. I want 1250 of you working on the Jutsus in these scrolls, and the other 3750 work on the Taijutsu Styles we were working on previously. Do not stop until you have mastered them." Jiraiya stated.
"HAI!" The Shadow Clones said as they took off to fulfill their orders.
"Naruto, I want you to do the exercise from this morning again." Jiraiya said.
"Alright. Just curious, what's my Gravity Seals at right now?" Naruto asked.
"4 times the normal amount of gravity." Jiraiya stated.
Naruto simply nodded and took off sensing that he was moving much slower than usual. By the time his exercise was done, he had gotten used to the new amount of gravity.
"Damn gaki, you get used to these Gravity Seals quickly." Jiraiya stated.
"It's because of the fox. I think he heals me quickly." Naruto stated.
"That makes sense." Jiraiya stated firmly as he adjusted the Gravity Seals once more.
"Alright, now dispel your Shadow Clones again." Jiraiya stated.
Naruto did so and passed out from the exhaustion and the rush of information.
Jiraiya immediately caught him and gently set him onto the ground before hearing a small gasp in surprise and vanished before reappearing behind a small girl with dark blue hair and fair skin, wearing baggy clothes that hid her figure. A figure that he was sure was beyond that of others her age.
"So what are you doing watching Naruto eh little girl?" Jiraiya asked as the girl jumped in surprise and turned around showing that she was a Hyuga.
"I-Is N-Naruto-kun a-alright?" the girl asked.
"He'll be fine little girl. What's your name?" Jiraiya asked.
"H-Hinata H-Hyuga." She stated timidly.
"I see… but you still haven't answered my question. Why are you watching him?" Jiraiya asked.
Hinata simply looked down and blushed a bright red, a red that would put a tomato to shame. This was her infamous Hinata Blush Mach 3.
"Let me guess. You are in love with him and he doesn't even notice you exist and everyone else in painfully aware of your feelings towards him." Jiraiya stated showing the reason why he was a Sannin with a Spy Network.
Hinata simply nodded her head.
"I see. Well… how about you train with us tomorrow? I'm sure Naruto would be glad to see a fellow Gennin training with him." Jiraiya stated.
Hinata looked shocked at that before quickly nodding her head so fast that it looked like it would come off.
"Alright… We'll see you tomorrow at 7:00. Oh and don't tell anyone that he passed. I have a feeling that he wants to surprise everyone with the fact that he had passed the graduation exam." Jiraiya stated whilst grinning at her.
Hinata again nodded her head before taking off in a mad sprint.
Jiraiya then picked Naruto up, and vanished with him and reappeared inside of Naruto's apartment and set him in bed before writing him a note telling him to be at Training Ground 27 at 7:00 and then he left.
The Next Day
Naruto was at Training Ground 27 at 6:30 and began his morning routine of running laps around the Training Grounds for a light warm up. He had already gotten used to his Gravity Seal's setting which was at 5 times the normal amount of gravity. He then got a curious look on his face as he released the Seal and ran, causing a few Chuunin to gawk at the orange blur of motion that was going around in circles at Training Ground 27. Soon he got done and reapplied the seals before realizing that he had overloaded them to the point that they were twice from what they were before-hand. Meaning that what was 5 times gravity is now 10 times gravity. Needless to say was he was on the ground struggling to get up. When he did though it was 6:58 and he saw Jiraiya and one of his classmates coming up to the training grounds.
7:00
"Naruto, this is Hinata Hyuga. She is one of your classmates and she is going to be training with us from now on until the team selections." Jiraiya stated.
Naruto simply nodded and turned to her and grinned causing her to blush a deep red.
"Alright. Let's get to work. Naruto, create as much Shadow Clones as you can." Jiraiya began.
Naruto instantly complied and made a grand total of 10,000 Shadow Clones.
"Interesting. They doubled. I want 500 of them at the library reading, 500 of them practicing chakra control by taking a leaf and putting on all of the chakra points on the body in which Hinata will help you with, 500 working on those styles I gave you, 500 working on the jutsus I gave you, 4000 working on this scroll of kenjutsu styles. I want you to learn all of them and then combine them into a unique style and master it and name it. Next I want you to have 2000 Shadow Clones work on your elements and the last 2000 working with Hinata on her Taijutsu. Naruto I want the same number of laps, push-ups, sit ups, and squats from yesterday. By the way, what is your Gravity Seal at? I can tell you are moving more sluggish than usual." Jiraiya asked.
"Um… I accidently overloaded it and made it to where I'm at 10 times gravity." Naruto stated.
"That's dangerous kid. Only 3 people in the village have theirs higher than that." Jiraiya stated.
"Really? Who?" Naruto asked innocently.
"They are Might Gai: the Taijutsu expert of Konohagakure no Sato, Kakashi Hatake: The Copy Cat Ninja, and myself." Jiraiya admitted.
"So 2 Jonins and a Sannin? Wow. What are ya'll at?" Naruto asked.
"Gai's and Kakashi's are at 15 times and mine are at 20 times." Jiraiya stated.
Naruto was dumbfounded at that and immediately began to do his physical exercises.
When Naruto was done he dispelled the Shadow Clones except the ones fighting Hinata and nearly passed out once more.
Hinata, whom was originally facing 2000 Shadow Clones of Naruto, was now at 1000 before she passed out from chakra exhaustion.
Naruto simply dispelled the last 1000 of his Shadow Clones before finally passing out.
Noon
When Naruto awoke he looked around before seeing Hinata still out cold and immediately began pumping his chakra into her body.
Hinata, feeling her chakra reserves being refilled quickly, instantly jumped up and dashed off a few feet, but still wasn't fast enough for her chakra reserves to be completely filled.
"Now then. Naruto show me what you have learned." Jiraiya said.
"Right! I'll start with fire style." Naruto stated as he began weaving hand signs.
Ram → Horse.
"Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation!" Naruto said as he inhaled and exhaled a giant stream of concentrated white flames that burned the ground just outside of the forest area.
"Interesting you already mastered Fire Style Jutsus. That right there is a SSS-Rank Fire Style Jutsu that takes 5 A-Rank Water Style Jutsus or 3 S-Rank Water Style Jutsus to extinguish it. Now let's see Earth." Jiraiya stated.
"Right." Naruto said as he weaved hand seals once again.
Ram → Horse → Sheep → Dragon.
"Earth Style: Great Dragon of Infinite Sorrow!" Naruto shouted as a giant dragon made completely of steel rushed into the trees and took out a huge portion of the forest.
"Again. You have mastered Earth Style. That is of the same rank as Great Fire Annihilation. What about Lightning?" Jiraiya inquired.
"Easy." Naruto intoned as Hinata watched in awe as Naruto shoot off Jutsus as if it was nothing.
Monkey → Dragon → Snake → Horse → Sheep → Boar → Dog → Dragon.
"Lightning Style: Great Dragon of Infinite Thunder!" Naruto shouted as from the clouds themselves a massive dragon made completely of lightning shot down from the sky and impacted with the ground.
"Mastered and of the same rank." Jiraiya commented.
"Now let me guess water?" Naruto asked.
"Indeed." Jiraiya stated.
Naruto just nodded as he ran through 54 hand seals at an alarming rate.
"Water Style: Giant Explosive Bite of the Infinite Number of Water Dragons!" Naruto shouted.
From a nearby lake 420 Water Dragons formed and flew towards them.
"Now for Wind." Naruto said as he began weaving hand seals once more.
Horse → Boar → Dragon.
"Wind Style: Giant Dragon of the North Wind!" Naruto intoned as a dragon made completely of wind soared at the Water Dragons and blasted through all of them except one in which that one was severely powered down and it hit Hinata, soaking her, but not hurting her.
"Water and Wind mastered and of the same ranks as the others." Jiraiya stated.
Hinata was in shock that the boy she was in love with had just fired off 5 SSS-Rank Jutsus without breaking a sweat, a feat only accomplished by 3 people in the history of Konohagakure no Sato. The 1st one was the Shodaime Hokage, The 2nd one was Madara Uchiha, and the 3rd was the Yondaime Hokage.
"Alright! Now then Naruto. Have your Shadow Clones, read out the entire library?" Jiraiya asked.
"Yes. The Civilian side, Shinobi side, and even the forbidden section." Naruto stated.
"Excellent. Now then I want you to read these 5 books on Fuuinjutsu." Jiraiya stated.
Naruto looked at the books. They were the Fuuinjutsu books ranging from beginner level to master level.
"I have 5 more levels past those, but I cannot decipher them. You might be able to do so." Jiraiya stated as he smiled at him and turned to Hinata and told her to climb a tree without using her hands.
At her question on how to do so, he simply told her to use her chakra.
Hinata nodded at this and got to work.
Naruto made 50 Shadow Clones and had them all read each book 1 time each meaning that once that they had dispelled he would have read all 5 books 10 times.
5 days later
Naruto was now an Uzumaki Fuuinjutsu Master and was well above anyone else in his class. His chakra control was perfect and his chakra reserves were beyond that of even all of the Hokage and Madara Uchiha combined. His wardrobe changed as well. He was wearing a red shirt with mesh armor under it, black pants, and a red coat with black flames on the bottom of it, eerily similar to the Yondaime's own coat.
Hinata was now well beyond what she had started out at. She was a master of her own Taijutsu Style that incorporated her own flexibility and the Gentle Fist of the Hyuga Clan. Her wardrobe as well. (Think Naruto's wardrobe in reverse and form fitting.)
When they arrived at the academy, everyone was looking at them wandering who they were until Kiba's nose told him who they were.
"Alright I understand why Hinata is here and by the way, damn you look great today Hinata. But why are you here Naruto?" Kiba asked.
Ino and Sakura gaped at Naruto and thought that there was no way that the hunk of a man in front of them was Naruto.
"I passed dog breath. And before anyone says anything, I did not cheat. I did a highly dangerous mission at the risk of my own life and the Hokage made me a Gennin." Naruto answered.
Iruka came in at that moment and was surprised at the changes shown by Naruto and Hinata.
(A/N: I'm going to skip all of non-important shit.)
"Team 7… Is Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, and Naruto Uzumaki. Your Jonin sensei is Kakashi Hatake. Team 8… Is Kiba Inuzuka, Hinata Hyuga, and Shino Aburame. Your Jonin sensei is Kurenai Yuhi. Team 9 is still in rotation so Team 10… Is Shikamaru Nara, Ino Yamanaka, and Choji Akamichi. Your Jonin sensei is Asuma Sarutobi." Iruka announced before leaving.
Everyone was talking amongst themselves and Naruto just continually banged his head on the desk at his bad luck getting not only Sakura and Sasuke, but also the chronically late: Kakashi Hatake. Hinata was down at not being on a team with the guy she was in love with, but grinned at Naruto for the actions he was doing.
Just then a few Jonin came in and took Teams 1 through 6.
"So Naruto why did the Hokage pass you to Gennin?" Shikamaru asked.
"I…kicked… Mizuki…sensei's… ass… for… being… a… traitor… and… for… hurting…. Iruka… sensei." Naruto said in between each slam of his head on the desk surprisingly enough there was no mark, no damage, nothing wrong with Naruto, but the desk was beginning to crack.
"Yeah right! You couldn't beat a Chuunin like Mizuki sensei! Only Sasuke-kun could do that!" Sakura stated.
"Shut… the… fuck… up… you… idiotic… banshee… of… a... cannon… fodder." Naruto said still slamming his head onto the desk which was now bowing inward.
Everyone was surprised at that. Everyone knew that Naruto was in love with Sakura. In fact he made it a point every day to prove it. What everybody didn't know was that he never loved or even liked her to begin with. It was all an elaborate rouse.
Then a Jonin sensei walked in whilst smoking a cigarette. He was a tall man, with brown eyes, short, black spiky hair, and a beard. His clothing consisted of the standard Konoha Jonin clothing with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows. He also had a red sash that had the kanji for 'Fire' on it.
"My name is Asuma Sarutobi. Team 10 is to follow me." Asuma said as he left.
Ino, Shikamaru, and Choji left in a hurry to keep up with the Jonin.
Hinata was smirking inside because she was glad that Naruto didn't like Sakura and that he like another girl in his class, but he never told her who it was.
Just then another Jonin came in and she was a fairly tall, light skinned woman of slender build. She had long black hair, shoulder length untamed hair, and very unique eyes that were red in color that also had an additional ring inside of them. She was wearing a red mesh armor blouse that had the left sleeve missing, thick material that was bandage like in appearance with a pattern on it that resembled thorns off of a rose.
"I am Kurenai Yuhi. Team 8 is to follow me towards the Akamichi Barbeque Restaurant." Kurenai said as Team 8 left with her.
A few hours later Naruto got fed up and set up seals around the door and most of the class room to prevent Kakashi from escaping without his pride hurt. They were minor pranking seals, but they also showed his skills in the art as well.
Soon a relatively tall, fair skinned and fit man whom had spiky white hair, a dark colored eye with his head band covering his left eye, and he wore the traditional Konoha uniform walked in, inadvertently setting off the seals. Sensing danger, the man jumped to the left only for another seal to go off and send paint balls at him, he substituted with a chair only for the chair to inadvertently substitute back with him, forcing him to get hit by the paintball which had enough force to send him flying into the chalkboard which had yet another seal on it and it sent out a geyser of water at him which soaked him to his bones.
"My first impression of you 3 is… I hate you." The man said.
"But sensei… it was Naruto that did it." Sakura said trying to save herself and Sasuke from trouble by blaming it on Naruto.
'Interesting. Those seals are made extremely well for an academy student just turned Gennin… that is if they pass my test.' The man thought as he examined the seals.
"My name is Kakashi Hatake. Meet me on the roof in 15 minutes." Kakashi said as he vanished in a swirl of leaves.
"Last one there has to buy lunch!" Naruto shouted out as he hopped out the window much to Sakura and Sasuke's confusion until they heard footsteps leading up the side of the building. Looking outside they saw Naruto walking up the side of the academy. Realizing that one of them was going to be the last one there decided to race there.
When they got to the roof Sasuke was 2nd and Sakura was 3rd meaning her allowance was going to take a major hit if not make her go broke.
"We'll start off with the introductions. I'll start… I am Kakashi Hatake. I have no intention of telling you my likes, dislikes, or my dreams for the future… hmmm… Well I have lots of hobbies." Kakashi stated and then he pointed to Sakura.
"My name is Sakura Haruno, I like (looks at Sasuke), my hobbies are (looks at Sasuke again), my dreams for the future are (looks at Sasuke once more), and I HATE Naruto!" Sakura stated glaring at him hoping to get a whine from him only to get a shrug and a "I hate you too banshee."
'Great. A Fangirl. Perhaps I can break her of that. Now a days girls are more concerned about boys than they are about their ninja training.' Kakashi thought as he pointed at Sasuke.
"My name is Sasuke Uchiha. I like Tomatoes and training. I hate fangirls, ramen, and annoying people. My hobby is training. I don't have a dream for the future, but rather an ambition for I will make it a reality. I will kill a certain someone." Sasuke said.
'Great. An avenger. Hopefully I can break him of that before it's too late' Kakashi thought as he pointed to Naruto.
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki. I like Ramen, training, Ero-Sannin, and my friends. I hate those who don't take time to get to know someone before they get to know them, the 4 minutes and 20 seconds it takes for the ramen to cook, and my teammates. My hobbies are gardening and training. My dream for the future is to become Hokage so that I can protect those whom are precious to me." Naruto stated.
'Him I don't have a problem with… except this Ramen thing he has going on.' Kakashi thought.
"Be at Training Ground 27 at noon for your test." Kakashi said before vanishing in a swirl of leaves.
Sasuke and Sakura turned to look at their remaining teammate only to see that he wasn't there. But he had left a note telling them to go ahead and eat lunch without him. He even left enough ryo to cover the cost.
Training Ground 27
There was Jiraiya and Hinata waiting for him.
"Sorry guys! My sensei is Kakashi Hatake and he has a problem with being chronically late to almost everything." Naruto said.
"That's fine Naruto, Now then… I have here the Toad Summoning Contract and the Eagle Summoning Contract. I want you both to sign one of them. Naruto I would like for you to sign the Toad Summoning. It may have a clue on whom your father is in it." Jiraiya said to get Naruto to do it and he did it in an instant.
