Chapter 2 – Playing Ninja

Four years time skip

Naruto, now four years old, woke up from his bead, running to the kitchen, where his mother and his father would be taking today's breakfast. When he got there, he was greated by their two fathers as well as a third person who appeared to be reading an orange book, while zipping a cup of coffee.

"Good morning, Tou-san, Kaa-san, Kakashi – nisan." – Said Naruto in a cheerful manner

"Good Morning, Naruto." – The three responded in unison.

After that, Naruto sit on his chair and a well served breakfast with some milk mixed with coffee and some bread. He finished it in less than ten minutes and was already bouncing on the living room, going to the garden to enjoy the beautiful sunlight that was displaying in Konoha. Yeah, Naruto had a family who took care of him as well as play with him, he even made friends with the son of Hyuuga Hizashi, Neji Hyuuga. In fact, they've met about three weeks ago, when the hokage asked Hiashi to watch Naruto for the day, since Minato and Kushina were to travel to the Fire Daimyou's house in order to establish some connections with the Earth Daimyou for trading commerce and merchants. During this time, a kumo ninja infiltrated the Hyuuga manor, wanting to kidnap the daughter of Hyuuga Hiashi and was going to succeed had Naruto not screamed the name 'intruder', as well as saying loud for the guards to show 'why are you kidnapping Hinata'.

After hearing this, the entire Hyuuga's guard appeared and captured the kumo ninja, therefore rescuing Hinata from the hand of the kumo ninja., Suddenly, both Hiashi,Hizashi and Hizachi's son congratulated on saving the Hyuuga heir as well as the Byakugan's secrets. That's when Naruto and Neji met and since they are the same age, they became friends in an instant. Actually, the boys started sparring since then, so Naruto began his ninja training with his father, seeing that he made a rival out of Hyuuga Neji.

Right now, Naruto was doing his morning routine, running 10 laps around the compound, as well as making 100 pushups. After that, he trained with a little wooden dummy, the taijutsu style that his father taught him. Even though, Naruto was excitedly overjoyed, you could see him concentrating on the hitting the enemy, rather than start punching and kicking the dummy without any coordination whatsoever. Minato had finished his breakfast and came to see his son practicing taijutsu just like every day, since the Hyuuga incident. He was just amazed at the display of commitment that Naruto displayed when he trained like that. It would be impossible at his age, to start losing some baby fat, but if the person were to see closely, they could see little muscles forming and knuckles forming on his hand, enduring his punches much better.

Kakashi, for his chance, was smiling at his nephew. He was already a legend at ANBU as Commander of Squad #1 and he was considering a position at Konoha's Jounin, seeing that being in Anbu showed some of Kakashi's deepest and most intense battles he fought and he was becoming tired of doing A and S ranked missions, mostly S ranked missions, commonly regarded as being 'suicide missions'. He would still apply for leaving Anbu, wait the Anbu's chief's dismissal as well as a approval of the Hokage. But seeing that he was late, he signed for his sensei the Yondaime, who just sighed and went back inside to put on some clothes and leave to go to the Hokage tower.

"Naruto-kun, I'm leaving okay, I have to go to work, keep practicing, okay, next month we are going on some chakra knowledge and introduction in low level jutsus, okay" – Said Yondaime, earning a positive nod and a smile from Naruto. Minato always received that nod, he knew that Naruto was so focused at hitting the dummy, that he didn't bother to turn his head and say something to his father.

When ready, Minato walked over to Kushina, giving her a soft kiss on the left chick, saying goodbye to work. Minato and Sarutobi would finish the last details of the new Academy teaching and it would hopefully be applied around next year, since this year's class already started and it wouldn't do any good to just change the course in the middle of the year. After he left, Kushina decided to see her son as he was still looking at the dummy, panting a little bit. Sure, he had a lot of stamina, but he is only four.

In order to prevent Naruto from falling on the ground exhausted, Kushina did the only thing that she knew could take Naruto away from his training. Two weeks ago, Kushina entered Naruto in a shougi quick course in order for Naruto to train his mind a little bit and forget about the physical torture, words put by Kushina to Minato one time. Naruto actually enjoyed the game and he enjoyed passing time with his mother a lot. After they played a few matches as Naruto lost them all, showing some sort of irritation towards the fact that her mother beat the crap out of him. But for a four year old, Kushina recognized that Naruto in a few time, win the game if he grow consistent manner just like he has been showing until now. Today, Naruto wanted to play with his friend Neji for a while so Kushina took him to the Hyuuga compound, so that she could visit her neighbor and wife of Hyuuga Hizashi, Hyuuga Tenko. They became friends mainly because of Naruto and Neji, but they found in each other, a friend that they could bribe about their son's development as well as curse some of their husband's antics.

After some time and a quick spar between Naruto and Neji, with Neji winning by very little, Naruto and Kunisha thanked everyone for their stay and went to the Nara residence. Kushina wanted to introduce Naruto to Nara Shikamaru son of Nara Shikaku, since not only Kushina's friends with Shikaku's wife, called Nara Yoshino. Upon walking on the streets towards the Nara manor, Naruto realized that they were going to a whole different place.

"Kaa-san, where are we going?" – Asked Naruto in a polite manner.

"Ah, Naruto-kun, I'm taking you to meet Nara Yoshino's son Nara Shikamaru, he is the same age as Hinata, but I can see that you're going to be very fond of each other. The Naras trained their child in strategy since they were one year old, so Shikamaru likes to play shougi a lot."

"Wait, you're finding a partner that I can beat in Shougi?" – Asked Naruto wondering if his mother was done playing with him.

"No, Naruto-kun I'm just introducing you to him. Also is the fact that I wanted to talk to Yoshino a little bit, since we haven't talked to each other in ages, you can meet her son, he's quite smart for a two year old.

When they reached the house, Nara Yoshino, wife of Nara Shikaku greeted them good morning and motioned them to enter the compound. Inside, Naruto meet Shikamaru, while Kushina and Yoshino started the old 'my stupid husband' talk, much to the dismay of Naruto and Shikamaru who ended hearing part of their mother's conversation. After a little talking, Naruto actually enjoyed Shikamaru's presence, they made a new friend even if Naruto was two years older than him. Naruto also cursed the lazyness of his new friend who only wanted to lie down, while recusing every game Naruto offered by muttering the world 'troublesome'.

After a few hours, Naruto and Kushina left the Nara residente, after Naruto insisted to his mother to leave so not to become lazy. Needless to say both women were on the ground laughing their hearts out, after hearing Naruto saying the same thing his father said to Shikaku when they first met. Now, Naruto and Kushina entered the library so Kushina could buy a new book for her to read, while Naruto was looking around. Noticing that the library was divided in shinobi and non-shinobi literature, he of course went straight to the shinobi section. To say that Naruto was surprised, it would be an understatement, he was literally drooling at the books. Oh my god, there is so much I could see here to learn, what to pick..what to pick…let's see…Intro to chakra molding…hand signs and their importance…Jutsu making…I think I'll pick these ones.

At the end of the library, Kurenai was doing the same as Naruto, but since she was much more advanced than he was, she was at the genjutsu section, picking two books about how to learn and how to practice genjutsus, when she saw a little blond there looking at the introduction books and she could see that he was astonished with what he was reading. How old is he? He appears to be around 5 and he is already interested in reading books, huh if only Yuugao were like us, right little gaki. She was awake from her thoughts, when a beautiful woman with long brown hair appeared behind the infant and smiled at him. Must be his mother.

"You want to buy those, Naruto-kun?" – Said Kushina with a smile on her face, seeing if Naruto would follow the same steps as his father, remembering that her husband was a genius shinobi when growing up.

"Can I, please Kaa-san, I really like them, please?" – Screamed Naruto, using the puppy eye jutsu to his mother, much to Kushina's delight.

'At least I don't have to worry about his studies' "Of course you can Naruto-kun, let's go pay for this, shall we?"

After leaving the store, Naruto and Kushina returned to the Namikase compound, with Kushina showing a 'ear to ear' smile on her face, seeing Naruto reading the book the whole way home. The first one that he was reading, was chakra molding since his father would teach it to him in a month and he wanted to show his father what he will learn from the book. Upon arrival, Naruto and Kushina settled down and Naruto asked for a quick lunch while he was reading the chakra molding book.

"Kaa-san, can I have a sandwich, while I read this book?" – Said Naruto never taking his eyes off the book.

"Of course, Naruto-kun, I'll make one for you, but don't get to close to the book, your eyes can hurt a little bit."

"Okay, Kaa-san, it's just that this book explains how to mold chakra, as well as explain some chakra control exercise at the end of it, I can't wait to read it." – Said Naruto.

"Chakra control, huh? Tell you what, what about you read a little and them we can discuss the book?" – Said Kushina, handing Naruto a sandwich.

"Sure thing, Kaa-san, thanks a lot"

After that, Naruto just sit on the lunch table and started reading for about three hours, when Minato entered the room. He was about to say hi to his son when Kushina waved him off, saying that Naruto was studying. Needless to say that Minato was indeed surprised to see a four year old studying about chakra molding, but he was slightly scared about it, since Naruto was only four and he should be outside playing, enjoying his childhood a little. Remembering the past, Minato wasn't worried about his son, the kid played a lot with Neji and Shikamaru, from what Kushina told him. Add to the fact that Naruto considers practicing Taijutsu and learning what it takes to be a shinobi like playing and enjoying life.

--At the academy--

Today's class ended early, since all the class had to do was practice some low level jutsus and them deliver a report about one of the Hokages. Seeing that the class had some free time, Yuugao and Kurenai rushed to the dango place so to grab something to eat. Kurenai was carrying her books along with her, so that she could study some more at home, much to the displeasure of the purple haired genin wannabe.

"Kurenai-chan, why didn't you leave those books at the academy, why do you study so much?"

"I like to study, plus I've been interest to learn about genjutsu and the art of deception, I think it's really cool" – Said Kurenai with a proud face.

"Whatever, Kenjutsu is so much better than genjutsu, plus genjutsu relies on the mind, while kenjutsu does more damage." – Said Yuugao, trying to win the argument.

"If the enemy's mind is damaged, how can he fight anyone, he would be rendered useless."

"Whatever, Kurenai-chan."

"You know, I happened to see a blonde kid buying some books at the library, you should be more like him, Yuugao, I'm sure that there is tons of books about Kenjutsu"

"Blonde kid, what does he looks like?" – Said Yuugao remembering about Anko's description of the Yondaime's son.

"He appears to be 4-5 years old, golden hair, deep cerulean blue eyes, oh and his mother was very beautiful, yes, she has this long brown hair. Well, I think she was his mother, since he called her that, but I was impressed with him, nonetheless, he bought on chakra introduction and some other books."

"Kurenai-chan, isn't that boy's name Naruto?" – Asked Yuugao, just waiting for the confirmation.

"Now that you said it, his mother did call him Naruto-kun, but why do you ask?"

"Baka, Naruto is the Yondaime's son." – Said Yuugao, cursing her friend's density and the same time wondering about Kurenai's news on Naruto. She already heard from Anko that the boy trained very hard every day on his stamina as well as taijutsu, also Anko told her that he almost broke a wooden dummy after some consecutive hit on the dummy's chest. She was impressed nonetheless with the little gaki's determination, since he was only four years old and was already interested in becoming a shinobi.

"What!? He is the Yondaime's son? – Exploded Kurenai, now wondering about his face and the fact that he did resembled their leader's attributes. "Now that you said, he did resembled Yondaime-sama, he is an interesting kid, when I was his age all I wanted was to play around.

"Yes he is, Kurenai-chan, you do remember what Anko said that day about his taijutsu, didn't you" – Said Yuugao, trying to picture a little boy hit a wooden dummy with such force.

"Yes I remember, actually I don't believe that a four year old could almost break a wooden dummy." – Answered Kurenai.

"Why would Anko-chan lie about that, she doesn't know him, she haven't even met him."

"Point taken."

For quite a while the two remained talking and after lunch, then both of them went separate ways. But both of them were thinking about the four year blond and what they did when they were his age.

"When I was his age, all I did was play with dolls and help my mother at the garden" (Kurenai)

"Only four and he's already training to be a ninja, hell at that age, all I ever cared about was to play, eat and sleep" (Yuugao)

--At the Namikaze Compound--

After reading the book for a while, Naruto was with Kushina, discussing the things that Naruto learned from the book. Needless to say that Naruto was fired up wanting to learn everything that is to know about being a shinobi and be one of the best shinobis ever, just like his mother and his father.

--One month later--

Naruto was doing his morning routine as well as enhancing his taijutsu, up to the time that his blows were delivering heavy damage on the wooden dummy. Suddenly her father came outside the clearing and saw his son almost breaking his first wooden dummy and went close to him. Today would be Naruto's chakra molding training, but Minato was already assuming that his son already knew at least how to mold chakra because of the book.

"Naruto-kun, today we'll begin chakra molding exercises." – Said Minato, showing his authority as Sensei with a focused and determined look to Naruto.

"Okay, Tou-san sensei." – Said Naruto, trying to mimic the determined eyes of his father.

"So, since you already heard the theory behind the chakra molding from the book, let's move to the actual thin, okay now watch Naruto, I'm gonna show one of the hand signs and you're going to mold chakra to the fullest, so I can have a grasp at your chakra reserves. Now this is the "ram" seal, see it. Great, now mold as high as you can.

"Okay, here I come".

Upon moving his hands to form the ram seal, Naruto began molding chakra to the fullest. He was molding chakra now for two minutes and his father was smirking, seeing that he only could go up to four minutes at the age of 6. Another two minutes and Naruto continued to mold chakra much to his father's utter surprise since Naruto was continuing. Another three minutes and Naruto was starting to feel dizzy from slight chakra exhaustion, so he stopped molding and looked to see his father's jaw open wide. Needless to say Minato was astonished to see his son with four years old, molding chakra for eight minutes, but he shrugged his thoughts when Naruto looked at him.

"So Naruto-kun, your chakra reserve is as big as your stamina, that's good, but since you have such chakra capacity, it would be more beneficial in the long run that you focus more on chakra control and less on expanding your chakra reserves. But never focus entirely on one of them, just a little more control then expanding it, got it?"

After a nod from Naruto, Minato began explaining the 12 hand seals necessary for molding chakra and the ones necessary to perform jutsus. Since Naruto was already reading his next book on hand seals, he already knew all the hand positions, but he still wasn't able to do all the signs in a sequence, so he took the time to just do hand seals without molding chakra until he did them without thinking. After Naruto learned the hand signs, Minato went to the first chakra control exercise that involved spinning a leaf on top of the forehead with only chakra. With that, Minato left Naruto practicing and went to his office to start his work.

--At the Hokage's office--

Inside the office, Sandaime and Minato were finishing the new teaching ritual that the academy will be doing. Right now, what left was to decide the duration of the academy. Both of them would consider the age of 5 suitable to start, but they didn't want to produce an army of Uchiha Itachi, who became Anbu captain by the age of 13. So they decided to establish the start of the academy at the age of 6, therefore a child can just be a child until they started at the academy. Plus Minato wouldn't have to worry about Naruto entering the academy next year and test his new program. Now thinking about Naruto, Minato was taken aback by the fact that his son could mold charka up to eight minutes at his age, but he was worried about Naruto's chakra control, since it would be harder for him to manage low level jutsus that don't require much chakra to perform.

The sandaime took a look at his successor's puzzled face and began to ask.

"What troubles you, Minato-kun?"

"It's about Naruto's chakra level, he managed to mold chakra up to eight minutes, but I'm more concerned about the fact that it would be harder for him to perform low level jutsus." – Said Minato expressing his concerns.

"Wow, eight minutes you say, that's impressive. But you're right, he would get his work cut out for him, however as you say the boy practices up to exhaustion, doesn't he? He'll be fine, he still has two years for the academy, I think by then his chakra control will be more than adequate to do E ranked jutsus." – Said Sandaime, easing Minato's concern a little bit.

"I think you're right, Sandaime. My son is smart and determined, he'll be just fine."

--At the Namikaze Compound--

On the next day, Naruto woke up after sleeping just a few hours. He was in bed thinking about what his father said about charka control and the fact that the leaf exercise was slowly improving, but not at a pace that Naruto wanted to. He was feeling close hand now what his father said to him about the difficulty of chakra control, so he thought it would be better to read the part of his book about chakra control so to see if he could learn some techniques that helped him for the leaf exercise. Quickly reading throw the pages, he came across a meditation exercise that when practiced daily, would improve concentration and was great for learning chakra control.

"Ok, in order to meditate, the practitioner must sit in a comfortable position, close his eyes and concentrate. The place of meditation is necessary in order for the exercise to be effective, so outdoors would be perfect. When outside, close the eyes and concentrate on hearing sounds you wouldn't normally focus on, like the sound of water dripping, the sound of the wind blowing and the sound of nature." – Said Naruto, reading the book loudly.

After reading, he got out and started to meditate, but before that he did his morning routine improving his stamina and punishing the wooden dummy. After that, he just sit on the grass and closed his eyes. Because of the energy of the taijutsu, Naruto was having trouble concentrating and closing his eyes, but because of his determination, he focused his mind on hearing the sounds that the book described. After twenty minutes, Naruto was having no luck since he couldn't hear those sounds, but with a clear mind, he managed to come up with a plan in order to hear the sounds. He began channeling chakra through his ears and was amazed at what he was listening. Apart from feeling the breeze at his face, he was able to hear it travelling in air, he was doing, he was concentrating and felt really good for him. This exercise managed to calm his nerves and eased his mind to the task in hand. OK, I learned how to medidate, but how can I learn chakra control from this.

Meanwhile, Neji arrived at the Namikaze Compound, reaching for his friend, who according to Kushina was at the garden training. Neji was quite found of Naruto over the years, they sparred a lot and played together. Upon arriving the garden, Neji managed to see Naruto in the middle of the garden, just sitting there with his eyes closed.

"What the hell is he doing with his eyes closed? Wait a minute…BYAKUGAN!!

Neji was considered the Hyuuga prodigy and he was able to use the family's kekkei genkai at the age of 4 already. What he saw Naruto doing, he couldn't figure out, Naruto was channeling chakra through his ears and his eyes were shut. Seeing this, he decided to go up to him and ask what he was doing. When he arrived, Naruto slowly opened his eyes and let the sun light slowly enter his corneas, hurting a little bit, because of the sudden light and a presence of a certain person.

"What are you doing, Naruto?" – Neji started.

"Oh, Neji, I was medidating a little bit." – Said Naruto with one hand on the back of his head and smiling.

"Meditating, what for?"

"You see, my father said that I have high chakra reserves and he said that my chakra control would be harder to manage. So, seeing I was having trouble with the leaf exercise, I read on a book that medidating helped improving concentration and focus. And as I was medidating, I started channeling chakra through my ears in a way as to hear sounds that you normally wouldn't hear. And since I managed to channel chakra through a part of my body, I think my chakra control improved a lot." – Said Naruto, explaining his reasons to Neji.

"Huh, only you to do that for chakra control. Hey I was looking for some morning exercise, want to help me?" – Said Neji, smirking and getting in a taijutsu stance.

"Sure, but I believe that this time we'll see who is better, huh Neji?"

"Let's go".

Suddenly, Neji charged at Naruto with a punch aiming Naruto's chest, but was dodged with ease by Naruto, by changing the direction of the punch with his arm as well as quickly swift to the side, turning with a wide kick to Neji's stomach. Seeing this, Neji continued the way he was heading for and rolled to the ground as to avoid the tackle. Seeing how Naruto was fairing in battle, Neji tried to fight using his kekkei genkai like his father instructed a while ago and then charged Naruto once again. Neji suddenly saw Naruto channeling chakra to his legs and was amazed when Naruto suddenly jumped away from the tackle and appeared on Neji's side, aiming a punch at Neji's face, which was avoided by the Hyuuga with his arms.

"Wow, Neji you managed to fight with the Byakugan, that's great." – Said Naruto never taking his eyes of his opponent.

"Yeah, but tell me how you channeled chakra through your feet like that."

"Oh, I was testing something, since when I channeled chakra through my ear, my hearing was better, I figured that channeling chakra through my legs, I would jump higher and get away from your blow, I guess it worked, huh" – Said Naruto showing a grin that somehow grew on him and it became his characteristic grin.

"I don't know if I should be impressed or not. For once you changed your strategy in the middle of the battle, but also you tried something you never knew it worked before."

"hhehehe" – Just laughed Naruto.

For a little while, they sparred some more and Neji went home satisfied about the exercise and his rival's quick improvisation skills. For Naruto's part, he went back to his room and decided to rest a little bit, before playing a little bit. Actually he was only four years old and already quite advanced in terms of abilities, but Naruto also played with some toys, since he is still a child no less no more.

Two hours later, Naruto went downstairs to have dinner with his family and managed to see Minato and Kushina in what could be described as a couple on a movie and sighed. Almost every day?? He was caught wondering, while sitting on a chair and continued to stare at the couple having some time together. Even though this was not a very pleasant sight for him (Not that he didn't like to see his parents together) but he didn't want to intrude their moment, so he went outside and looked at the full moon at the sky, shinning with all intensity and illuminating almost everything. Now this was a sight that Naruto enjoyed as much as training, the moon always calmed him down and the excess of energy in his body just seemed to vanish even if it is for a second. He was so caught on the site that he didn't hear his mother calling him to get some dinner.

After the third attempt, Kushina was getting worried about his son, since he didn't come like he was used to, so she went upstairs. Meanwhile Minato went outside for a little while and just feel the night breeze wash away his worries. When he stepped outside, he saw his little one staring at the full moon smiling.

"She is beautiful, isn't she?" – Minato asked, sitting close to his son, scaring Naruto a little bit.

"Oh Tou-san, you're here. Yeah, it's very beautiful, especially on a day like this with no clouds to stop her from shining like the sun." – Said Naruto almost hypnotized by the view on the moon.

Then, Father and son was looking at the moon at the same time, when Kushina came outside, screaming for her son's name, finding not only Naruto but Minato as well looking up.

"What are you two doing outside?" – Kushina said, amazed at the resemblance of Naruto and Minato with just the height and the clothes that were different.

"We're appreciating the full moon, kaa-san, sit with us, take a look for yourself" – Said Naruto.

"Ok, but I don'…." – It was all that kushina said, before she looked at the moon and understood what Naruto and Minato were so amazed at, it was really beautiful. Kushina was right now thinking two things. I never paid attention to the moon like that, it's so beautiful, but I would have never know that a four year stamina freak like Naruto could meditate as well as stare at the moon like this.

Kushina then stopped looking at the moon and looked at her son. He was showing the most sincere smile she has ever seen him showing. It appeared that Naruto was in love with the full moon. Kushina looked at his son's eyes and became terrified for him. Those eyes, how can he show those eyes at his age, it's the eyes from someone passionate, someone thoughtful, someone relaxed, someone peaceful. Kushina was afraid of seeing her son at the moment, she felt like he was growing faster than ever before and she was fearing that his childhood would end sooner than normally expected. I better talk to Minato about loosing up his training a little bit, so that he could at least be a kid for once.

"Ok, dinner is on the table, let's go you two." – Said Kushina getting up

"Ok, let's go Naruto-kun, I'm hungry and I know you are as well." - Said Minato carrying his son inside on top of his shoulder, listening his son cheer for his father and smiled.

After served, the Namikazes were eating when Naruto shoved the question that made Minato and Kushina dropped their chopsticks on the floor and Minato choking the food.

"So, just what were you doing here in the kitchen, just a little while ago?" – Said Naruto, mentally laughing his ass off, seeing the looks that his parents were displaying.

"W-What are you talking about, Naruto-kun?" – Kushina tried to cover from their son.

"When I came downstairs, I saw you two just close to each other, hugging and stuff, it was before I went outside and saw the moon."

"Oh, that, I was just hugging your mother, Naruto-kun, why are you asking?" – Said Minato, not wasting time trying to lie to his son.

"No reason, just curious, I guess" – Said Naruto, dismissing the subject.

After a while, they finished dinner and Naruto tried to help his mom by taking the plates and handing to her. Kushina smiled at his son, saying that he didn't need to help, but he insisted and she smiled again. Such a gentleman. When Naruto finished everything, he went upstairs towards his room, while Kushina found the perfect time to talk to Minato.

"Minato-kun, can we talk about something?"

"Sure thing, Kushina-chan, what is it?"

"It's about Naruto-kun, I don't know, I think he is growing too fast, if he continue this way, he won't have a happy childhood and I'm afraid of that, can't you loosen up a bit on his training or just let him play with his toys like a normal boy, I've never seen a boy just stare at the moon like he did. Minato-kun, I could see his eyes, it wasn't a kid, was something else, I don't know." – Said Kushina, showing her concerns to Minato, much to Minato's concern.

"Kushina-chan, I don't know if he's growing too fast like you said, I mean Shikaku's kid keeps looking at clouds all the time. As for his training, I'm not forcing anything, it's he who keeps wanting to train all the time. Don't worry, Kushina-kun, I saw his eyes as well that time and I can see that he's growing up, but that's unavoidable, the boy loves the full moon. This is good for him, to learn about passion and beautiful views."

"I know about Shikamaru from Yoshino. But Naruto unlike Shikamaru is a stamina freak, how can he meditate, how can he just stop and look at the moon, like he could stare at it all the time. He is four, he can't be that evolved as to control his energy like that, he is just a kid." – Said Kushina, now more concerned than ever, knowing that her husband wasn't with her on this predicament.

"Don't worry, Kushina-chan, Naruto plays with Neji, little Hinata, even Shikamaru. And I still see him playing with toys as well as train. He is a bright child, he likes to do such things, than leave him be. I don't want to impose something on his life and I'm not saying that I won't be harsh on him if he does something bad, all I'm saying is that I'll let him do what he believes it's best for him, I'll guide him through it but he is the one who has to make the decisions for himself in the end, not me and you. Let's trust our boy, he'll do what is right for him and we'll support him in a way that he feel confident about telling us something or asking us something. Also, Kushina-chan, it's my job to boss around the village and I'll have to boss him when he becomes shinobi, but right now I will leave him make his way." – Said Minato, reassuring his wife, who smiled at her man's speech.

"I'm sorry, Minato-kun, I'm just worried that's all, all in due time, right?"

"Right"

"So, Minato-kun, are you gonna hug me again or not? We are not finished, you know?" – Said Kushina, with a devious look at her husband, asking him to follow to the bedroom.

Needless to say that the Hokage was smiling the next day.
