The return of the last Namikaze
Chapter 3: A talk with the kyuubi and developments.
This was the second time naruto was talking to the kyuubi face to face and Naruto was not used to it. Maybe it had to do with the fact that the first time he was pushed over a cliff to learn to use its chakra, or just that it was the kyuubi, Naruto wasn't sure, but he was looking at the face of the kyuubi and he wasn't sure what to do.
But Naruto suddenly realized what to do, and that was to throw back his head and laugh out loud (LOL).
The kyuubi looked at him as if he were mad.
Naruto laughed and was muttering something like: "I can't believe I was scared"
The kyuubi was enraged to see this and it said in a loud voice
"You stand before the Kyuubi no Yoko, leader and most powerful of the nine beasts, and yet you are not scared?"
"Nar, kyuubi, in fact I'm amused."
"Really brat, now tell me why you would be?"
"Because 1, you're in a big cage that you can't get out, and 2, I'm the son of the fourth Hokage and if my dad can seal you, I can learn to do that too."
"Hmph, son of the fourth I don't care much for him."
Seeing Naruto's expression of confusion, the kyuubi chuckled.
"Don't worry; I still want to kill him for sealing me in here. But I'll just say that there's someone I would rather kill right now. Don't bother, maybe I'll tell you sometime. Well seeing how you act to me is entertaining. I like you kit, all I want you to do for me is to become stronger, I will not have a weak container"
The kyuubi's voice grew as he said the last sentence.
"Now kit, I would like to stay and chat, but its morning and you have things to do. We shall talk more later."
With a pulse of chakra Naruto was pushed out of his mind and opened his eyes to see sunlight. He looked around to see an unfamiliar place. Slowly he remembered what happened and decided to explore the house.
Looking around, he started upstairs. The bedrooms where big and furnished and besides the dusts and cobwebs, everything seemed to be in order. He went downstairs and looked through everything except the office and the basement.
Deciding to clean up, he made a bunch of clones and assigned them to a different room, and realizing that he was hungry, he sent one clone to sneak out of the yard and get a couple bowls of ramen for him.
Once he finished that, he went to the office and found a large desk and he sat down in it. He smiled as he thought that his father must have sat in that same chair years ago. He got up and decided to make his final stop on his tour, the basement.
When he reached there, he didn't see much. Lots of boxes with dust covering everything. Sighing, he made a few clones to clean up. Over to the side though, there was a steel door with a huge lock over it. Naruto walked over and looked at it. The lock had a slot with the outline of the three pronged kunai he had in his pocket. To the side, he noticed, there was a drawing of the kunai in the door and blood on the centre prong. Naruto, getting the idea, took the kunai, cut his finger with it, making sure that his blood was on the centre prong, and put it in the slot in the door.
At first, nothing happened, but suddenly the kunai glowed and a click was heard. Slowly the door opened and inside was a long hallway. Naruto slowly walked inside trying to see what was at the end of the hallway. When he finally reached the end, there were three doors with blood seals on all.
Naruto opened the first one and inside was a scroll. He unsealed it as it too had a blood seal and opened it. His eyes widen as he realized that this was a scroll with the instructions on how to learn the jutsu that gave his father the name 'Konoha's yellow flash'. He grinned thinking of how cool it would be to be able of use it, but he had no time to do so now. He resealed the scroll and closed the door.
Going to the second door, he opened it up to see there was another scroll there. Opening it, he grinned as he saw it was the rasengan. The concept and techniques that was used to develop the rasengan were all in the scroll.
"This will definitely help me master the rasengan fully" Naruto thought with a grin.
Again he resealed the scroll and closed the second door.
Moving to the last door, he opening it and again there was a scroll.
Opening it he found it was a sealing scroll. Unsealing it, he found 2 books; one was on the history of the Namikaze clan, the other of the Uzamaki.
"This will be a good read, but not now."
He again resealed the scroll and resealed the first door, taking the three pronged kunai and cleaning off the blood from it as he left the basement. Storing it away safely, he went to see if the clones were finished, those that were he dispelled.
"Well, it's around 10, and I have nothing to do, eh, might as well go train or something." Naruto thought.
But as Naruto was about to leave, he looked at the streets and saw it was completely filled with people, when he had sent his clone to sneak out there was hardly anyone, he couldn't sneak out or for sure people would see him.
Sitting down, Naruto brainstormed on how he could get out undetected. Suddenly he remembered something from training with Jariya. They were being followed by enemy ninja and they weren't armed, so they ran into a back alley and Jariya summoned a toad, he told Naruto to get in with him. At first, Naruto disagreed, but Jariya pulled him in and the toad shrunk down and hopped away without notice.
Naruto grinned and biting his finger, summoned the same toad and getting into its mouth, it shrunk and hopped into the streets from the mansion just as Naruto hoped, unnoticed.
Finally, in a back alley, the toad grew and Naruto stepped out and the toad disappeared. Walking onto the streets normally, Naruto headed for training ground three, team seven's old training ground.
On arriving, Naruto settled in a clearing near a lake and decided to warm up by doing a couple hundred of sit-ups, push-ups and pull-ups each.
Sakura walked down the streets of Konoha with a basket in hand towards Ino's flower shop. Today, the four girls from the Rookie 9 were having a brunch and were meeting at the flower shop.
Upon arriving, Sakura saw that the other girls had already reached, each with her own basket.
"Hey everyone, Ino-pig"
"Hey forehead, I see you finally came"
Sakura gave Ino a frown but didn't go on.
"Now that your here, where do we go?"
Each girl made their suggestions but none seem to take hold. Finally, Sakura suggested that they go to a training ground as it would be quiet and outdoors.
Everyone agreed and they set out.
They chatted on their way, Hinata the least of course, and Ten-Ten the most about some weapon she had just bought.
As they arrived, they saw that most training grounds had ninjas practicing and each were noisy. But strangely, training ground three was quiet and they didn't see anyone around. So they went in and unpacked the brunch/lunch (as it was minutes to 12 by now) near a clearing.
But as they settled down, Ten-Ten noticed someone in the middle of the clearing who seemed not to have noticed them. Nudging the other girls, she silently pointed to the long person who was doing push-ups at the very fast rate.
Sakura was the first to recognize who it was.
"It's Naruto!"
Ino gave a small chuckle "Are you sure, forehead? He may have the same blond hair, but he looks older than Naruto, hotter than Naruto and the only person who can do push-ups that fast would be Lee."
"Ohh, it's Naruto, don't believe me? Let's just watch him and eat quietly and I'm sure we can see that it's Naruto without disturbing him."
The other girls nodded and watching him as they ate, listening to him grunt softly on each lift.
"Ahhh, after 300 pull-ups, 600 sit-ups and 400 push-ups, I'm a bit tired. Man that's a good work out, but I still have to get to my real training"
Standing up, Naruto made a single crossed handsign that he knew for years; he created about 100 clones and began a fierce tai-jutsu battle.
The girls watched with a slightly opened jaw as the clones appeared. They all knew the only one person who could create that much clones.
"It is Naruto!"
"Told you so!" Sakura said triumphantly.
"He's gotten a lot bigger" Hinata said softly.
"And a lot faster, He's almost a blur." Ten-Ten said in a distracted voice.
As the battle continued, Naruto was hitting and keeping up with all the clones as they dispelled with one hit, but when it was down to 10 they all came at him in one concerted rush. Naruto managed to dodge half of them, but the others hit him and he was sent flying into the nearby lake.
As he hit and disappeared in the water, the remaining clones were dispelled and Naruto was nowhere to be seen.
The girls began to panic as they saw that Naruto was not appearing. As they were about to go to look for him, he broke the surface with a splash.
Slowly getting out of the water, Naruto wasn't very happy
"Great, now I got my jacket wet!"
Muttering a bit, he took his jacket and under shirt off, leaving only his pants on, he put the clothes on a nearby rock to dry.
"Wow, he's alive, and he has his shirt off, man I wish I got a closer look at him without his shirt! If he's grown and he can move as quickly as Lee, then he has to have some muscles!" Ino lamented as she watched shirtless Naruto walk to the middle of the clearing.
"Don't worry, Ino-pig, it looks like he's gonna continue training."
"Still? Well, he always had great stamina. I wonder if he also has great stamina in-"
"Ok Ino-pig, that's enough" Sakura said slightly too loudly as Naruto looked up. None of the girls moved as Naruto scanned his surroundings, but seeing nothing, just shrugged and again made his shadow clones. This time there were 200.
The girls stared with jaws lower than the first time has they saw 200 shirtless Naruto's appear.
"He not only has muscles...He has A LOT of muscles, not to mention a well-toned six-pack." Ino said in a shocked voice.
"Well, Naruto never took his shirt off when we were in team 7, but to have THAT many muscles...training with a Sannin sure made his body a powerhouse."
Hinata suddenly activated her Byakugan and promptly fainted at the sight of not only just Naruto, but 200 shirtless Naruto's.
Meanwhile with Naruto, he looked around once again and then proclaimed:
"Alright guys, think you can beat me with 100 clones? Well I'll beat you, all 200 of you!"
The clones gave angry shouts and lunged at the original, who just smiled and with a shout of "bring it!" began a battle so fast that from the girls perspective, all they could hear was the sounds of kunai's and fists, but all they could see were the smoke of the clones as they dispelled seemingly endlessly.
The girls weren't hungry anymore. With Hinata up again, all girls attention was on the fight before them.
After about five long minutes of continual fighting, the last clone poofed out of existence and all that was left when the dust settled was a standing Naruto that just stood there.
The girls felt like giving him a round of applause but kept quiet.
Slowly Naruto took a step forward only to have his feet and knees give away.
Naruto fell with a soft thud and he didn't move.
At this the girls couldn't take it any longer. They all rushed forward and ran to Naruto. They began to tend to him by healing him and leaning him on a tree. Slowly Naruto came to, and as his vision cleared, he saw four concerned faces looking down on him.
"Huh, what happened?"
"You trained too hard and you fainted you baka! We had to come and heal you and make sure you didn't kill yourself."
"Wait, how do you know I was trained hard and that I fainted?"
"We were having a brunch on the training ground and we saw you doing push-ups, and then training with the clones. We didn't want to interrupt you so we just left you and we ate while watching you train." Hinata spoke softly.
"Ohh, well no problem but I need to train harder. (Seeing Sakura about to explode on him for he still wanting to train Naruto quickly saved himself) But not today, besides I'm hungry. Guess I should get some ramen."
Ten-Ten looked at him oddly "Still with the ramen huh? By the way, this is the first time we've seem you back in the village, why don't you join us, we have enough food?"
"Eh, I'm so hungry I guess I can't resist, so sure."
So with the help of Ten-Ten and Ino, Naruto stood up and walked slowly over to where the brunch was laid out.
As they ate and talk about how Naruto had grown and Naruto complemented them on how they had grown, not to mention Ino sitting next to the still shirtless Naruto and 'accidentally' losing her balance and falling onto Naruto's chest.
Up in the trees however, the perverted Sannin sat overlooking everything.
"You have four girls all paying attention to you alone. You lucky boy."
Across from his though, on the opposite side of the clearing, in the tree stood an root ambu looking at everything that was happening.
"Yes. Danzo-sama will be pleased to know this"
The young root ambu silently left as Jariya sighed "So he's finally gone, gonna have to tell Tsunade about this."
Next time: A team again and strange happenings
And that's it! Chapter three is done. What do you think? I'm gonna get some fighting scenes as I progress and also contemplating if this should be a harem (or better yet, lemons).
What do you think? :D Read and Review.
The hiper-active knucklehead.
