Chapter 2: Fruits of training and a new life
The sun is shining upon the ruins of a once powerful island nation birds are chirping the wind is blowing the waves are crashing on the beach and its generally a beautiful day it's been a year since he got the letter from the sand siblings and today is the day our hero leaves the island. We find him standing up after meditating under the waterfall on the island as Kurama told him he had to be able to stay still for a half an hour not a single movement before he would start his fox sage training needless to say for one as hyperactive as the blonde that was hard after 4 months he is currently about to stay still for a grand total of 10 minutes and he hated it absolutely hated it that isn't to say he didn't improve greatly in his time training with the clones and his insane workout regimen the blonde now stood 5'9 and weighed around 165lbs he had hit the max on his weights around month 3 and switched to his dads own creating resistance seals and reached the final level in those as well, he had mastered his 3 elements as well as several Jutsu for each he opted to perfect the ones he knew rather than have to many but not have them perfected he knew 10 known s class Jutsu for each element and 5 more s class Jutsu he created for each for a total of 15 S-class he had 25 A-class for each element and 15 B-class and 10 C-class he mastered the academy techniques to the point he needed no seals even the bunshin and eventually Kage bunshin but it didn't end there. He mastered his parents styles of taijutsu and kenjutsu as well bojutsu in the first 6 months and decided to incorporate some of those movements with his fan and created his own style and mastered it. His favorite part however was Fuinjutsu he got all the way pasta level 15 to master level and eventually learned the Hiraishin and Space time absorption technique and perfected it painting the seals for the absorption on his hand and altering the seal to transfer the chakra to him refilling his reserves or in some cases allowing him to reflect the attack back if he didn't need the added chakra. This was all inside the first 6 months with his thousand clones a day after that he worked on perfecting what he knew he added seals to his fan that he stores thousands of Hiraishin Kunai In so he could launch them out en masse and use the wind style to get them to their target faster he mastered his Rasengan one handed and it's variants including the Rasenshuriken. And in case you were wondering he learned how to forge from a book in the Uzumaki library as they were renowned weapon forgers so his made his own Kunai and used chakra metal to enhance the distance the marker could be where he could still flash there and so that he could use the Kunai as a sword by channeling wind chakra into them which where the kenjutsu came in handy he added an extra feature where he could connect his two Kunai together in center and channel his chakra into it creating a double sided blade where he could use bojutsu (Think Darth Maul with his double sided sword). At that point he still had 4 months left and had no idea what to do so he started working on his Fox summons techniques and collaboration Jutsu as well as working with Kurama doing this and meditation this is how he spent his last 4 months there that and physical training. That brings us till now our blonde had on the clothes Temari had given him which he added seals to enabling them to grow with him to a certain point after he passed 6ft in another two years he'd need new clothes but for now he was wearing black anbu pants with Kunai and shuriken pouches on the side he had grey shinobi sandals he wore his hitae-ate(forehead protector) around his waist as a belt with another pouch strapped to the back of his waist to hold his Hiraishin Kunai he wore a sleeveless mesh shirt with a red sleeveless shirt overtop with the Namikaze clan symbol on back as a gift from the siblings when he revealed his parentage in the letter over top of that he wore a beige Chunin vest with a high neck that had a short sword sheeth sewn into the middle on the back with a red hilted blade inside he had cut his hair using the clones before he left the bunker yesterday and had them give him some sealing tattoos on his left bicep he had the kanji for wind on his right he had the kanji for fire on his left wrist he had a storage seal with his battle fan inside as he wanted it always at the ready and his left arm all the way from the kanji down had various shinobi equipment sealed inside as well. As he stood up and stretched he picked up the scroll with all his parents belongings in and put it on his back and then another large scroll he placed on top of that with everything inside the bunker all the scrolls weapons armor and sealing tags etc after that he set off for Suna. "Hey Kurama do you think it was wise to not train my sharingan while here at all?" "Yes Kit the sharingan isn't useful when you don't have a live opponent to copy or use genjutsu on clones won't exactly work well but don't worry Kit when you hit the village and get settled in we can set up some spars for you to get used to it and I will teach you the interceptor first as I've seen Madara use it and can replicate it in your mindscape if you were to combine the principals of it with the styles you know you'll be damn near unbeatable" "You're probably right Kurama thank you without you idk where I'd be, though there's something else I wonder Kurama I heard that Suna had a clan that could use scorch release by combining wind and fire from reading the history books in the archive and how some Uzumaki could creat lava with earth and fire do you think I could do that Kurama?" "Well honestly Kit I don't know they're considered Kekkei genkai which most believe are from a specific bloodline I always figured that made no sense and they were more like an affinity as in anyone with enough practice could combine the two but someone with the bloodline or would be stronger as in they have an affinity for the sub element does that make sense?" Naruto nodded at the foxes explaination "I guess that just means we have to try it and see what happens it's a two day trip from here to Suna I'll make a bunch of clones before we leave and have them train creating Scorch and Lava release for 2 days and see if they can even get a little bit down I know I saw a scroll for Yoton:Bed of lava in the archive and read it I'll have them try it and also see if they can modify fireball Jutsu with wind chakra and try to find some scrolls on Shakuton when I reach Suna" "Sounds like a solid plan kit make some clones and let's get out of here".

Suna Gates 2 days later
After running through the sand for the last day with nothing but heat no water to be see Naruto was exhausted and he was sure if it wasn't for the furball he would've passed out and died within hours upon entering the vast dessert but finally he was there he could see the large gates of Sunagakure his new home. "Stop who are you I've never seen you here before you have a Suna Hitae-ate(Forehead protector) but you can't be from around here who are you and what do you want?" Asked the gate guard a short and stocky man with basic Chunin attire with green eyes Brown hair and a scare from his right temple down the side of his face "My name is Naruto Namikaze I applied to be a shinobi of your village a year ago and thanks to Gaara it was approved and I was granted a year to train and get my affairs in order before reporting here is my ninja ID card and papers" stated Naruto in the most professional tone that had probably ever come out of his mouth and bowing at the end after handing over the papers. "Everything seems to be in order Namikaze-san I apologize for my rudeness but one can never be to careful my name is Jirobo by the way Jirobo Shinugake the Subaku estate is all the way across the village go straight down the main road till you reach the Kazekage building then go left make your third right and it's at the end of the road knock before entering Gaara can get kind of testy and you don't want to see him mad though these days he's mellowed out a lot and I hear we have you to thank for that anyway have a great day Namikaze-san" Jirobo bowed to Naruto as he left. Walking down the street Naruto notice just how different it was no trees no grass just sand the closest thing to trees or grass would be the local Cacti species and each and every building seemed to be made from clay or some for of stucco and were very simple in design despite it all though it had its own charm the people bustled about just like any other city shopping and eating laughing and working just generally living life be it shinobi or civilian needless to say Naruto thought the place could grow on him with time however there was one thing that would be a deal breaker to the blonde despite his new healthy diet he couldn't kick his ramen obsession and as such he needed to find a ramen stand running around town frantically panicking his new home would leave him in a ramenless hell forever but turning the corner oddly enough in the direction of Gaaras estate where he would be staying for the foreseeable future he saw it, it was a shining jewel in the dessert almost glowing with the godlike powers of ramen the gift of the gods he got closer and he saw a familiar chef and his daughter cooking ramen and the sign said Ichirakus and Naruto almost feinted it had to be a mirage but the closer he got the stronger the smell and it just had to be real when he reached the stand to sit down and Ayame popped out to take his order of 35 bowls of miso ramen and 10 Naruto specials he just new it was real. Ayame gave him the biggest smile he has ever seen "Naruto! We have been here for the last 6 months waiting once Tsunade told us they kicked our best customer and my honorary little brother out of the village Dad and I decided our food was to good for them so we shut down until we figured out where you were heading and a few months ago Tsunade informed us you were a Suna shinobi now and we left and headed out the second we heard we couldn't let you come out here all alone, at first it was rough but thanks to your friend Gaara helping with start up costs and his siblings eating here so much more business has come our way and we are doing even better here than Konoha !" Finished Ayame with her dad in the background smiling Naruto ate his ramen and smiled larger than he had in a while he hugged his honorary family and thought "I definitely could call this place home" before rushing to the Subaku estate where he knocked on the door though he didn't expect the most beautiful angel he's ever seen to be the one to open it "God this place is heaven on earth, it has Ichirakus and the most beautiful woman I've ever laid eyes on all in the same place" thought Naruto though the last part was out loud and he didn't even realize it The beautiful blonde girl with pig tails and a curvy frame sporting growing B-cup breasts that will definitely be at least Cs in the next few years wearing a very lacy thong that covers almost nothing and a short T-shirt stopping just over her stomach who looked to be eating dango and now blushing a bit after hearing that last part. "Hi Naruto wow you've gotten tall finally stopped living off ramen I see? I hope you improved in more places than just height but we will have to find that out tomorrow now come on in it'll be nice to have some eye candy around here as the village is severely lacking on that front." The fellow blonde said with a smile. "Wait T-Temari oh my god you're gorgeous you're growing up well Dattebayo' wow well I guess with us two around the village won't be hurting on that front any longer" Naruto said with a smirk and a flirtatious wink while walking inside "Boys! Naruto just got here" screamed the blonde now known as Temari while what happened next would shock any and all that have known Gaara in the years before he met Naruto two blurs raced into the room smiling one with red hair and red clothes and one with Brown hair and makeup... I mean "Warpaint" "Ha I win again told you that you couldn't beat me!" Said the redhead shocking Naruto to his core "when the hell did Gaara learn to have fun?" Thought Naruto with a bit of sarcasm and a whole lot of mirth "Wow Gaara you've changed so should I be calling you Kazekage-sama yet?" Spoke the Namikaze "Hey Namikaze no you shouldn't as I still have a year to go it seems they think I need more training and experience." "Well you better work hard or I just might take that hat from you before you even get it dattebayo!" Naruto said usual grinning face and all. "We shall see Namikaze we shall see" Gaara said in a playful tone. "Okay guys off to bed tomorrow we have to show the Baka around and see how much better he's gotten I'm sure he's tired after all the traveling" spoke Temari "Awww Mari-Chan you do care" Naruto said teasingly "Maybe I do maybe I don't but get to bed because you're not finding out tonight" spoke Temari before finishing her dango and heading to bed.Naruto started to follow Temari to his room but stopped "Oh before I forget goodnight Garra" and walked away giggling while Kankuro poured at being ignore Gaara grinned "Godnight Namikaze."
The next morning came fast and with it new challenges first of which was to report to the Suna council and interim Kage to receive his assignment after that it was convincing them to allow him to restart his clan and build a clan compound the came the fun part of getting shown around town by the hot blonde Temari and her two brothers before finishing the day with a spar. Getting up Naruto hopped into the shower threw on his gear and grabbed a scroll he needed for the meeting then went down to enjoy breakfast with his friends "Morning everyone what do you got in this place for grub?" The cherry blonde inquired "Someone is a morning person" smirked Temari "We have cereal and oatmeal in the cabinets fruit and some veggies, eggs, and bacon and milk in the fridge oh and bread and butter for toast take your pick but if you want anything special you need to cook it!" said Temari after saying this Naruto went In the fridge grabbed some strawberries, blueberries bananas and milk to make a smoothie after blending that up he passed them out to everyone while doing this he was happily chatting with Temari much to the amusement of her two brothers having never seen any male flirt or show interest in her as they were always afraid of Gaara and Kankuro but no not Naruto so Temari was soaking up all the attention as Naruto mixed whisked and fried away when he was done he had made a frittata with the eggs, bacon, spinach, tomatoes and assorted other veggies in the fridge and some toast then turning around to make coffee and tea for everyone he washed the pans off and set them to dry cleaned his hands threw the towel over his shoulder and turned to his plate to east with everyone staring at him wide eyed "Who would've thought you could cook Naruto? This is completely amazing!" Naruto blushed at Temari's praise and Gaara and Kankuro nodding in agreement the Namikaze tilted his head back and rubbed his hands through his hair at the back of his head much like his father used to and if any of his parents old friends could see him now long blonde hair with bangs framing his face a shy smile rubbing the back of his head they'd swear they saw a ghost "Well growing up alone in your own apartment from 6 years old kind of forces you to learn to cook for yourself I'm not chef but I like to think I'm pretty good at it thanks to Ayame and Mr. Ichiraku helping me throughout the years. "Okay Namikaze you're coming with me to the council after that Temari will show you around the village Kankuro and I have plans with sensei after you're done meet us back here for that spar" Gaara said with a smirk and look towards Kankuro who did the same in return thinking it went unnoticed thought Temari saw right through and her cheeks started to heat up "Sounds good Gaara let's head over to the council now this'll be fun" Naruto replies with a devilish grin that made Temari's heart flutter a bit seeing how roguish he looked and her brother nervous for what he had planned for the council.
An hour later Gaara and Naruto stand in front of the councilors and Baki "Chunin Namikaze welcome to the village before we decide where to place you we wondered if you had any preference as to where as well as anything else you'd like to discuss during this meeting" Asked Baki "Well Baki-sama initially I wanted to go right back out to the front lines however I think I could go much farther with some more training that being said Jiji used to say sometimes you can learn a lot from teaching the subject matter and that's one of the reasons he grew so much and became known as the professor and so I thought why not be a Chunin instructor at the academy for the next two years if you'll have me so I can help make the next generation of Suna shinobi the greatest the world has seen and remain in the village to train as much as possible after that id like to join your ANBU to be on the front lines I know in powerful and right now I believe I'm Jounin level but I believe in a few more years I can be Kage level or even higher if there is such a thing and I request more time to train and to allow me to shape the minds of the next generation. As for other requests I would like to reestablish the Namikaze clan here in Suna and build a clan compound next to the Subaku estate I noticed a large plot right outside their grounds and would like to buy it and build there" He stated with a smirk as he knew he had them hook line and sinker and loved every second of it "Well Namikaze-san that's quite the statement and list of requests however I can see from how you carry yourself and the feel of your chakra you're not likely to be exaggerating so we will call a vote on your first request before talking about the next, all who agree to Namikaze-san teaching for two years before Joining our ANBU raise your hands" it was unanimous after Baki posed the quest everyone raised their hands having another S class shinobi in Suna and a Jinchuuriki at that would instantly take them from The weakest of the 5 nations up near the top. "Now as for your second request that land is indeed for sale and it costs 2million ryo but building an estate isn't cheap how do you plan on paying for the cost of construction and supplies as getting ahold of the wood and stone and clay and appliances out here can be a pain and that makes it more expensive something the size and scale of the Subaku estate is easily 75-100 million ryo wether we allow you to reinstate the clan or not you may purchase the land as anyone in Suna has the right to and build on it but let me ask you this what could your clan bring to the village if we let you restart it?" Asked an aging council member to Bakis right. "Well I guess those two questions go hand in hand first of all here is the 2 million ryo" Naruto said as he opened a scroll and channeled chakra into it out popped the money his parents left him and handed it to Baki who had it counted and ordered the deed to be delivered by the end of the meeting "and as for the rest well in this scroll is weapons and armor sealing tags explosive notes and various other seals I got from a bunker under the Uzu ruins as I'm a royal blooded Uzumaki I was allowed to enter the contents of this scrolls by my guess should be worth over 250 million ryo and could completely gear up your entire shinobi force but that's not all this scroll has copies of every Uzumaki Fuinjutsu scroll from the library in Uzu that should be worth about the same so about 500 million ryo value considering this is my home now I'm willing to part with it for 150 million ryo paid to the builder of my new compound on my behalf by the council" said Naruto while handing over said scrolls to a bunch of bug eyed councilors. "Before you answer me I have one more thing my clan can provide I have mastered my father's signature Jutsu the Hiraishin now while I cannot give you the scrolls on it as it's a clan secret I have adapted the Jutsu to where I can place a sealing formula on the ground in the Jounin command post on the floor if a team goes to a location and drops a scroll on the ground when they need backup someone merely needs to enter the sealing circle in the Jounin command and channel chakra to their feet and they'll appear on the scroll the recieving team has I can draw the seal on the floor and give your sealing team the scroll for the transfer seal to make copies I also have a mail seal that can be placed on the Kazekage's desk and any shinobi can simply open a small scroll place the letter on it and channel chakra into it and poof the letter is sent" Naruto stated to a shocked council. "Well Namikaze-san you sure know how to come prepared and take over the room you've controlled the entire meeting but we have verified all you have said except for the last part however everything else has been genuine so I'd be hard pressed to think you'd lie now so let vote all those that agree to reestablish the Namikaze clan here in Suna in exchange for all that has been stated and to fun the construction of the estate raise their hands." Stated Baki and yet again it was a resounding yes Naruto walked out of the council building grinning ear from ear.
Upon walking out Naruto met a certain attractive blonde "Hey Mari-Chan long time no see it looks like you have a new very sexy neighbor dattebayo!" Shouted the exciteable blonde. "Ohhh who is he is he here because I don't see any sexy people here but me" she teased and got a good laugh when Naruto poured a rain cloud somehow forming over his head in the dessert as he pouted. "Oh come on Naru-kun you know I love you" she said smiling then covering her mouth realizing how it sounded " I mean like you a lot ... I mean god damnit okay I like you Naruto you're sexy fun loving, you've grown to be a bit more mature and intelligent and you can cook plus your not afraid of my brothers so why not make this tour into a date?" A very hopeful Temari asked while looking at something very interesting on the ground. Naruto smiled from ear to ear "Sure Mari-Chan id love that no one has ever asked me out either because they're always afraid of me so I'm not sure how to do this so cut me some slack but let's go!" at that Temari smiles and explodes towards Naruto in a blur reminiscent of his father's favorite Jutsu and slammed into him like a freight train hugging him before picking him up off the ground grabbing him by the hand and dragging him all over town by the hand introducing him to everyone and showing him every sight and taking him shopping granted she paid as he had spent all his money pretty much this morning 4 hours of touring and 2 hours of shopping they returned home happy and exhausted from the day of fun but it wasn't over yet there was still daylight out and a spar to be had.
On the training ground in the backyard if the estate 15 minutes later "Guys I know this is probably to much for me but can you 3 come at me at once I haven't gotten to test all of my skills I learned yet against anyone except clones and I want to see how I do with multiple opponents?" Naruto asked the three hesitantly nodded. "No killing or Maiming anything else goes" Naruto nodded and shook his head for a second looking in pain. "You okay Naru-kun?" Asked Temari his now girlfriend "Yeah Mari-chan I left clones behind in Uzu to train they dispelled last night when I arrived and 1000 clones dispelling at once hurts and after a year straight it has kind of caught up to me the fox says he can heal it but it'll take a while and I shouldn't use clones just give me a second and I'll be fine" They all nodded at Naruto and after waiting about 10 more minutes for his headache to pass and him to get the all clear they threw a ryo as high as they could when it hit the ground the battle would be on!
———————————————————————-
Time for the big fight!
The rock hit the ground and they were all off in a flash garra runing through sings "Wind release: Drilling air bullet" Temari joined in "Wind release: Sickle weasel" at that to large air billets and a sickle shaped gust of wind charged at Naruto before Kankuro joins in "secret art death by 100 poisonous senbo" Kankuros puppet launches the senbon that are then propelled by the wind as if shot from a cannon straight at Naruto who goes through his own signs "Earth release: Mud wall" the wind and senbon crash against the wall destroying it and sending the pieces across the battlefield but effectively stopping the senbon "its my turn now" said the blonde going through hand signs again "Earth release: Earth Dragon Bombs" yelled Naruto as the remains of his wall converged and formed a giant earthen dragon that opened its maw and fired a massive boulder at the trio who then scattered in all the commotion Naruto created 2 clones and all of them went through hand signs "Kurama showed me this Jutsu it used to be Madara's favorite Fire release: Great Fire Annihilation the other two clones went through the same hands sings as the other Wind release: Hurricane Gale" a massive wall of flames erupted from the originals mouth which only got fanned by the two wind Jutsu which resembled two tornadoes coming from the blonde's hands producing more than enough wind to fan the giant flames. Seeing the wall of flames made the siblings gawk at the size and power of the Jutsu "Sand dome" shouted Gaara as a large protective sand dome shrouded him and his siblings till Naruto cancelled his Jutsu when the fire stopped and the dome came down they stared at the blonde waving at them with a happy go lucky smile and carefree attitude "This is awesome guys but let's kick it up a notch Resistance seals KAI!" after saying that Naruto's body glowed blue and seals expanded all over him before vanishing and once that happened Naruto himself vanished the first to go down was Kankuro with a high speed elbow to the gut "One down" then Naruto redirected and headed straight for Temari who put up an admirable fight blocking his punches and kicks for a minute or two before his sheer speed got the better of her and a chop to the neck put her of commission a clones dragged her and Kankuro off to the side "That's two looks like it's just you and me Gaara" the pair smirked at eachother "So it seems Namikaze" after saying this Gaara pounced into action charging Naruto surprising the blonde as Gaara never seemed to be one for Taijutsu the two traded blows at a furious pace easily elite Jounin level for 10 minutes "Damn Gaara I didn't know you were this good at Taijutsu you seemed like a range fighter to me last time we fought" said Naruto as he came in for a palm strike to Gaaras right side but in reality it was a feint the palm used to cover up Naruto's eyes and shift of weight he used as he coiled his hips to spin his body around for a spinning kick "There is a lot that's changed since we last faught Namikaze the least of which being your last name" said Gaara as he batted away the palm strike and just barely avoided the kick "I have precious people to protect now so I had to get better you taught me that" with that statement Gaara through a low kick at Naruto's knee which got blocked but the to Naruto's shock while his attention was on the kick a fiat made of sand came from behind Gaara it wrapped around and smashed into Naruto's rib cage and he coughed up blood "Damn Gaara that was brutal you got good" a smirk gracing Naruto's face as he says this "But I'm better" he finally takes out his battle fan and swings it down for a crushing blow Gaara jumps back to avoid it taking advantage Naruto opens the fan and blows a gust of wind in Gaara's direction before he landed keeping him off balance and charges forward channeling wind chakra to the edge of the fan and using it in slicing motions he takes to the offensive " Lets finish this Gaara" Naruto resealed his fan and and pulls out two trim pronged Hiraishin kuna and channels his wind nature into it creating a long blade but to everyone's shock he manages to channel fire into it as well igniting and burning hotter using the wind as fuel "Scorch release: Sun gods blade" as Naruto says this he vanished in a yellow flash appearing behind Gaara "I marked your arm during out Taijutsu fight with my Hiraishin marker I can teleport next to you no matter the distance yield!" Feeling the flaming blades on each side of his neck Gaara yields and the fight is over. "Wow Namikaze you got even better to be honest I'm glad you're here in our village now if we ever had to go to war against you I'm certain we'd have a really hard time." Gaara Stated "What he said Naru-kun that was fun and you're really good we should spar some more so I can get better" said Temari while Kankuro poured at being left out again "Hey guys did you all forget about me?" "No makeup boy we didn't forget" joked Naruto "Just you were brains seemed to be to addled from the ass kicking to speak so we did the polite thing and let you get it together first I mean come on any guy who wears makeup definitely has some issues ... wait you were wearing makeup beforehand weren't you wow I guess it wasn't me that messed up your brain you're just that much of a idiot" joked Naruto to a still pouting Kankuro "Ay it's warpaint not makeup you know WARPAINT!" "Whatever you say makeup boy" Teased Temari and Gaara which shocked Kankuro even more "No respect not even from my own siblings" grumbled makeupboy under his breath as they all walked back into the house to wash up and get some food and rest.
Well that's that the end of chapter two next chapter will go into what he is doing in his two years teaching and what more he's learned as well as possibly touch on the state of Konoha at the time and chapter 4 will be about his year in ANBU after that I want to give him 6 months of training with the foxes which I will discuss at the end of chapter 4 as well after the training arc concludes the action will heat up and we will get to some of the more cannon arcs like the Akatsuki attacking Suna etc. (Also by Friday of this week 2 more chapters of the Raikage story will be up my wife is going away for the week for work so my nights will be boring and I will get a lot done the Road to Hokage will also be updated by Saturday or Sunday)
