Full Moon(Aventure/Romance)
Chapter 4 – New attire
Two weeks after the iwa failure, Naruto got the tree walking chakra exercise and now he was studying about the water walking exercise that the fuuton book was telling about. Since Aoba was no longer teaching him, he needed some pointers about the water walking exercise. Even though the fact that the book said that once the tree walking exercise was done, the water walking wouldn't be harder, only with a different concept. The water walking exercise involved the control of the flow of chakra as well, but when walking on water, the ninja needed to control the flow of chakra according to the distance between the water surface and the ground.
Next week, Naruto would start at the academy and he was nervous as hell. He wanted to become stronger, he wanted to learn more jutsus and be able to protect other as well as himself. Naruto knew that Neji would attend the academy as well. Even though Naruto made Yuugao as his second rival, Neji was his lifetime rival. Right now, Naruto was doing taijutsu training with four kage bunshins and he was fairing very good against them.
Minato was looking his son handing himself against four kage bunshins and was actually doing very good. His taijutsu skills were very good for even a 10 year old academy student. Minato was so caught in wanderings that he failed to see that his son just disappeared from view and actually was behind him. When Minato realized this, he looked at his back and was flabbergasted. He sensed the usage of fuuton chakra and now was sure that Aoba wasn't hallucinating. Minato was so proud of his son that he grabs his son and lifted him as he was laughing along with the namikaze prodigy. Kushina was already up and was able to witness the bonding between father and son. Needless to say her worries were for nothing after all.
'Naruto, you look more like your father every day. Now, you're going to the academy and you are to become stronger than you are now. I'll pray for your success, Naruto-kun and I hope to see you accomplish great things as a shinobi'. – Thought Kushina as she was smiling at his son.
"Naruto-kun, why don't you get upstairs and get ready for breakfast, okay?" – Said Kushina to her son.
"Sure thing, Kaa-san, I did a lot of exercises today, I think I'll take a little shower and then visit Neji, how is that?" – Asked Naruto.
"Okay, Naruto-kun. Just don't spar too much with him, okay? Last time, both of you needed some wound treatment".
"Hehehe, it's just how we play together, don't worry kaa-san, I won't spar with him….too much, bye". – Said Naruto as he shunshined away in a little typhoon up to his room, leaving Minato laughing at his son's antics and Kushina fuming from seeing her husband laugh at her.
"Don't worry Kushina-chan, he'll be just fine, the boy enjoys being a shinobi more than anything. It's no use trying to take that away from him now, besides he and Neji are entering the academy next week. Plus, our little son is growing". – said Minato still smiling while remembering about Naruto's wind shunshin.
"I know Minato-kun, I no longer wonder about him in that way, he knows how to have fun like a kid, he'll just continue to play like that his entire life, that's all". – Said Kushina, in an ironic manner.
"Yeah, you're right. Also I came to know that our son is already earning some female attention, if you know what I mean. Hehehe, way to go my boy, uh…why are you looking at me like that, Kushina-chan?"
"Explain yourself Minato Namikaze, what do you mean by that?" – Demanded Kushina to the Yondaime, demonstrating to the blonde leader who is his worst enemy out of the shinobi world, much to Minato's dismay. He was in trouble and he knew it.
Honestly, Minato wondered about putting team 2 for taking care of Naruto because of Kurenai and Yuugao. Such teenagers were very good-looking for their ages and he knew that Naruto's personality would shake such girls a little bit. But what Aoba said, left Minato wide-eyed for a moment, as he wondered how they would do when they see Naruto in the future. As the team's sensei said, Naruto already made a rival out of Yuugao for practice and kind of asked Kurenai out to the library to buy a new book, but what one he didn't know.
"Well, Kushina-chan, the team responsible for Naruto's well being involved two kunoichis that took a liking at our little boy. One that is a kenjutsu specialist asked our son to be her rival and the other accompanied Naruto-kun to the library to buy a new book. No need to worry Kushina-chan". – Said the Yondaime putting his hands behind his head smiling like a maniac, much to Kushina's sigh, since she couldn't resist that goofy smile of his.
"If you say so, Minato-kun. Well, me and Naruto-kun are heading to visit Neji-kun and after that I think I will surprise him with some ninja equipment for the academy, right. He's starting next week, so it would be best to buy all the stuff he needs like shuriken, kunais, ninja outfits." – Said Kushina smiling from ear to ear, while thinking about her little son as one of Konoha's finest one day.
"Good idea, Kushina-chan, well I have to go to the office. Sarutobi and I are finishing the new academy plan and we need to finish it until the first day of the academy when the new academy is to be presented to the new students. With this, our shinobi will be more prepared and much stronger to deal with tough situations".
"Well, good day at work, Minato-kun".
"Thanks, have a nice day as well, Kushina-chan and I love you". – Said Minato as he waved his wife goodbye.
"Love you too, Minato-kun".
Just as Minato got out of the compound, Naruto got down stairs and set for breakfast with Kushina keeping him company while he ate the equivalent to a little battalion in order to replace the energy lost which by the way Kushina wondered if her son would ever be exhausted one day. Because of the gravity seal still on, Naruto got accustomed with the new weight and was moving normally. Actually with the tree walking exercise, Naruto learned a great deal of chakra control as well, so he managed to get used to walking with extra weight by channeling chakra through his legs for better moving and without much restriction.
After breakfast, Naruto and Kushina went outside and both looked at the sun radiating Konoha like never before. It was a very hot day that even though Konoha is situated at the Fire Country, the temperature was higher than normal, attracting all the konoha citizens to the lakes around town so to refresh.
--At the Hyuuga Compound--
When Naruto and Kushina arrived at the gate, the hyuuga guards bowed and allowed them entrance, since not only they were the Hokage's family, but the Namikaze family was really close to the Hyuuga main family as well as the fact that Naruto and Kushina have a bond with Hyuuga Tenko and Neji. Once inside, the namikaze waited patiently at the main garden until Hizashi and Neji appeared to greet them. Hizashi told Kushina that Tenko was at the living room having some tea so Kushina went inside to chat with her friend and have a little talk to catch up.
Meanwhile, Naruto and Neji were eyeing each other with the regular intent of a little spar, but because of the last time they fought, Hizashi prohibited them to fight for a little while, serving as a little punishment from Kushina and Tenko, much to the infant's dismay, since when they fought each other, they improved. Neji since the last time, was training with his father in advanced instances of the Hyuuga style of fighting and got a lot stronger as a result.
Because of the fact that neither Naruto or Neji could fight, both of them decided to talk about the upcoming academy and the fact that Naruto overheard his father saying that they were to be a part of the new academy, but since Minato didn't talk in details, Naruto didn't have more to say about it.
"So Naruto, I believe that you're entering the academy, isn't it? Good, because I intend to enter as well and I want to see just how you improved since the last time you and I fought. I'll have you know that I've been training with father in the advanced ways of the jyuken". – Said Neji earning a fire inside Naruto since he was desperate for a spar between them but sighed, thinking that they could fight like crazy once at the academy.
"Yeah, Neji I'm entering as well and believe me I've been training as well. Let's wait until the academy arrives, then we can test our strength against each other, hehehe I can't wait." – Grinned Naruto, remembering the last time they fought.
Hizachi long since hearing the conversation with his son and the hokage's son could only laugh at such a rivalry that was built and hoped that these two would be the ones that guided the next ninja generation to success, if they don't get themselves killed when fighting at the academy that is. Hizashi was looking at the blonde with the byakugan and he was amazed to see that the blonde's chakra coils were more improved that it supposed to be for someone his age, but something he saw near the chest area, just confirmed the fact that the Yondaime was indeed a mad man, since there was place a gravity seal, which the hyuuga could only figure that since Naruto was so at ease by walking around that the infant was already used to using it. Yes, these two will be very strong indeed.
"So tell me Naruto, why do you want to become a ninja? I already asked Nej that, since it's important to follow the family tradition, but it's more important to follow your instincts and know what you want to do in life?" – Asked Hizashi, showing the infants that the shinobi world is nothing sort of a game to be played.
"Well, Hizashi-sama, I would like to be a ninja in order to protect other as well as myself. You see, ever since the first iwa attempt of kidnapping, I found that if I was strong enough, I wouldn't need to be protected anymore and I believe helping others is what I intend to do once I become a shinobi. After all, all shinobi missions are requested by people who need help isn't it?" – Said Naruto, with a hand behind his head and smiling.
"Very well, good answer, Naruto. It's important to know what you want to be in life. It's important to plan ahead and remember children, the shinobi world is no fun and games, once the mission gets out of hand, it's up to the shinobi to use his skills in a way to run damage control if need be. There will be times when you guys have to kill in the name of the village or at least defend yourselves from powerful ninjas out there. Naruto, since you are the Yondaime's son, watch out for Iwa shinobi, once you're outside the village, they won't hesitate to capture you. Neji, in your case, Kumo is for you like Iwa is for Naruto, so when your time comes and you need to get out of the village on missions, be extra careful, okay. Take this advice to the heart.
"Hai" – Said the two infants in unison earning a smile from the hyuuga elder.
After some time talking, Kushina bid her friend goodbye since she wanted to surprise Naruto by buying him shinobi gear for the academy that would be starting in one week. Tenko smiled at her friend and bid her farewell. Once outside, Kushina called for Naruto so that they can go back to the Namikaze compound, but little did Naruto know that his mother had something in storage for him.
--At the Uzuki Residence--
In the garden, a purple-haired kunoichi was practicing some kenjutsu katas while her father just watched in amazement as his daughter was faster and stronger by the minute. He smiled, remembering when Yuugao came home two weeks ago telling them about her team's mission protecting Naruto as well as training alongside him. Back then, Yuugao came rushing at him with a smile that could be seen all over Konoha as she was describing her newest rival which by the way was the six-year old hokage's son who not only managed to gather her interest out of all her genin peers, but also seemed to fair pretty well in taijutsu/kenjutsu spar with Yuugao.
Uzuki Mamoto never would have thought that the Yondaime's son could be advanced like his daughter described his skills. He was flabbergasted upon hearing that Naruto had immense chakra reserves and was able to do the kage bunshin as well as the shunshin, being the latter added with fuuton chakra according to his daughter's sensei Aoba.
But a thought appeared in Mamoto's head and he remembered that his daughter had a crush on the current hokage and he wished that her crush wouldn't end up being the hokage's son, wishing that his daughter if in fact wanted to be with Naruto, that at least they got to know each other better and develop their lives. Mamoto thought again and concluded that his daughter was never a fangirl to begin with and he knew that she would take her rivalry with the gaki seriously as well as their certain friendship.
Yuugao for her part was getting used to using the gravity seal that Naruto put on her a week ago. As she was delivering some heavy blows while cutting the air, she remembered the day that Naruto explained the use of gravity seal and that she requested if was possible that he could put on her.
Flashback on
One week after the iwa attempt, Naruto was walking towards the library to see if something new had arrived. Suddenly, a purple-haired kunoichi appeared out of nowhere, screaming his name.
"Naruto-kun, wait up?" – Screamed Yuugao as she appeared in front of him.
"Yuugao-san, how do you do? Where is the fire?" – Asked Naruto.
"I'm fine, Naruto-kun. Listen, I would like to ask you a question about your gravity seal. How does it work? Can I use it or it's something hokage-sama invented for you to use". – Asked Yuugao, remembering about their fight when he released his gravity seal and suffered a huge burst of speed.
"Well, the gravity seal works by increasing the gravity force on your body, naturally increasing your bodyweight. With it, moving tends to be difficult, since the gravity force is much stronger. The way you can move with the gravity seal is by pumping chakra through your legs as you move them. This exercise helps to expand your chakra reserves as well as your control over it. After the seal is rested on you, all you have to do to activate is channel chakra through it and use the word 'Kai' and it's the same to deactivate. You can put more than one seal on your body as you are getting used to. Apart for the fact that it's quite dangerous because the heavy movement tends to hurt your body muscles, everyone can use it, why?"
"Well, I was hoping if you could put one on me? It's not fair that you use this and I your rival don't?" – Said Yuugao, earning some muttering from Naruto, 'saying that she is eight years older than him and already a genin and she is the one that uses the word fair in a sentence'. But luckily to him, she didn't listen.
"Sure, but I see you understand the risks, once I put one of the gravity seal on you, it will be hell to get used to, are you okay with it"; - Said Naruto, earning a nod and a smile from her rival. "Okay, so where do you want the gravity seal to go?" – Asked Naruto blushing a little bit, since his was on his chest and he wouldn't dare to ask her if she wanted it on her chest, but somehow he knew that his rival would have some teasing because of it.
"Wherever you like it, Naruto-kuun." – Said Yuugao earning a red tomado blush out of her rival, much to her amusement, seeing that she adored to tease Naruto. "Teasings apart, I want on my left arm.
"O.Okay then, extend your arm, Yuugao-san so I can put the gravity seal on." – Said Naruto as Yuugao complied. At extending her arms, Naruto placed a paper tag with a drawing that indicated the gravity seal and made the necessary hand seals to make it go active on her, making her fall on the ground because of it.
Now Yuugao was speechless and hurt. Her face was flat out on the ground and she forced herself up with brute strength, but was having problems doing so only to look that Naruto was looking at her seriously.
"Yuugao-san, in order to move with the gravity seal active, you have to use chakra, not brute strength. The gravity seal increases your body weight up to 20 pounds per seal. So if you think about it, you would weigh 20 pounds more with each seal.
At hearing this, Yuugao mumbling something about cursing the little gaki and wondering how the hell could he take this and be normally. She focused on using chakra on her body as she was getting up a little easily, but since her chakra levels were lower than Naruto, she was almost panting because of it, having to deactivate the gravity seal.
"Quite a training, isn't it Yuugao-san?" – Laughed Naruto as he remembered himself slamming his face on the ground after his father introduced him to the seal.
Flashback off
As a result of getting used to the gravity seal, her chakra levels improved greatly and she could almost scream in joy as she would be now learning ninjutsu with Aoba-sensei. Even though Yuugao's chakra levels were high for a kunoichi, she couldn't rely on ninjutsu to fight in battle, resorting to the use of E ranked jutsus and her father's kenjutsu style.
'It seemed my father's advice at getting a rival did indeed help me a lot. I have to remember thanking Naruto-kun for the gravity seal, it was sure hell getting used to, but once you get accustomed, it pretty much feels that the seal is non-existent'. – Thought Yuugao as she was progressing through the katas.
--With Naruto and Kushina--
Now outside the Hyuuga compound, Naruto and Kushina were walking through the crowded streets of Konoha, apparently going nowhere, well for Naruto's part he didn't know where they were going, but Kushina very well knew and she was going to surprise Naruto by going to a ninja store that she and Minato were when they were chunnin sometime ago.
Naruto was becoming suspicious of his mother's behavior since she was trying to hide a smile on her face for no apparent reason. Kushina was never good with deception skills, but even though Naruto was quite smart for his age he lacked the experience to understand face expressions and compare them with emotions. However, since he didn't have anything to do back at home, other than catching up on the fuuton book, he dismissed the thought and just continued walking together with his mother, until they came to stop near the commercial center and in front of a two-floor house. Showing Naruto to enter along with a smile on her face as she watched the now more suspicious than ever Naruto enter in what he would after describe as a 'shinobi paradise'.
As he entered the store, his mouth opened and his jaw hit the ground one second later. Shelves and shelves of ninja attire, kunais, shurikens, senbons, holsters, kodachis, katanas, wakizachis, bo staffs. Right now, Naruto cursed not having the byakugan bloodlimit, since he couldn't look at all the ninja equipment at once, which resulted in Naruto turning his head left and right several times trying to grasp the wide display of ninja attire the same way a child would look at a toy store.
Kushina upon seeing Naruto's expression, smiled even more if possible, since the woman was already smiling when she entered the door. She was happy to see how much Naruto seemed to enjoy just being inside the store as did his father once Kushina introduced him to the owner of the store.
"Surprise, Naruto-kun, we're here to buy some ninja equipments as well as some clothes to aid you in battle, now since kunais, shurikens and the holsters are pretty much the same, except for the holster's color, go ahead and pick some clothes that you would like to wear, but tell me what color would you like the holster and how many of them?
"Kaa-san, I don't know what to say…thank you so much for this, I wasn't expecting at all." – Said Naruto as he hugged his mother tight in appreciation.
"You're most welcome Naruto-kun, but eventually you would need to come here to buy clothes and all, I just wanted to surprise you and by seeing the looks on your face, I think I managed to do that, didn't I?" Now, what's going to be?" – Said Kushina smiling while seeing Naruto was still trying to show gratitude to her.
"Uh, black holster, and I would like two of them, thanks mom, I'll go to see some clothes now". – Said Naruto as he went to the shinobi wear section and begun to look around already picturing a very cool outfit for him, whike Kushina was ordering the usual, that being a set of kunai, a set of shuriken and the two black holsters.
For Naruto's part, he was first choosing his paints. Naruto wasn't to fund of much details concerning clothes, he wanted it to plain and simple, a color that would not attract attention but also didn't scream experienced shinobi. As he was seeing the different pants models, his eyes caught some movement from a room just on the corner of the store and he witnessed a girl around his age, wearing Chinese outfit, just picking some boxes from the room.
After that, he just returned to the outfit choosing and managed to come in contact with black cargo paints that were similar with the ones Anbu used on missions. After that T-shirts and fishnet shirts. Naruto already knew he wanted to use fishnet sleeveless shirts so he did even bother looking for it. After some time, after almost quitting to look for a shirt to wear, he spotted a shelf of graffiti T-shirts with a ribbons at the end of the sleeves that were really nice. As Naruto mentally pictured his new look, he smiled knowing that he was able to choose his outfit. He was to buy some black cargo paints, fishnet sleeveless shirts and the graffiti T-shirts, two of each color (red, ocean blue and dark grey).
Just as he dressed up his new attire, his mother came to look at what her son picked to wear and was surprised to see he picked some good looking clothes. The whole package fitted him perfectly and the graffiti T-shirt went along with black paints. "You managed to get some good outfit, Naruto-kun, very handsome as well, I might add."
"Mom, please." – Sounded Naruto since every time his mother did this, he blushed like crazy in embarrassment.
"What, you do. Now, take a look at these fingerless black gloves I found near the holsters, I think they match your outfit, put it on and let's see." – Said Kushina while looking at her son's reflection on the mirror. Now, with the gloves, Kushina was now once again worried about fangirls at the academy. Damn that Minato-kun, you just had to say that, didn't you?
"Gee, thanks mom, they are perfect". – Said Naruto as he closed his hand forming a fist to see how it would be to fight using the gloves and to his amazement, the rubber wasn't so tight, giving some almost a free hand when to form seals and all.
"Great, now let's go. Here, Tanaku-san, we would like seven pairs of the black cargo paints, four sleeveless fishnet shirts and six of these graffiti T-shirts, two on each color, please." – Said Kushina as she motioned to buy the clothes from a dear friend of his that happened to be a retired Anbu.
"Okay, Kushina-san, so this is Naruto, it's a pleasure to meet you. I figure you're entering the academy this year, right. My daughter will start attending this year as well. Yes, she's quite anxious to get out of the shop for a while. She has a like for weapons like no one I ever met before. – Said Tanaku just for Naruto to remember the girl on the back and he figured that
"Pleasure is all mine, Tanaku-san, yes I will be attending the academy as well". – Said Naruto as he saw Kushina handing the right amount of money to cover everything.
"Right, Kushina-san, everything will be ready in two days, be sure to stop by then to pick them Naruto-kun, I'll be waiting you." – Said Tanaku as he demonstrated a genuine smile towards the boy who just returned to gesture equally.
"Okay, Tanaku-san, see you in two days, bye."
--With team 2--
At training ground #2 Team 2 were beginning their training, since today wouldn't be any mission scheduled. They were doing some warm-up exercises almost eagerly in anticipation, since today they would be learning elemental chakra manipulation as well as some jutsus according to each ninja's elemental affinity. Since Genma knew his already which by the way was fire, Aoba could help him a lot, since one of his affinities that Aoba possess is fire as earth being the other one.
But since Aoba was very diligent as a teacher, he along with other jounin senseis, gathered a little jutsu library for each affinity, so that the genins could learn throughout their carriers. Actually, it would be also served for the new academy, since elemental ninjustu was in fact a new subject at the new academy.
"Kurenai-san and Yuugao-san, as you know these are elemental chakra papers. So go ahead, channel charka through them and let's see in what element are each of you aligned with." – Said Aoba as he handed the chakra papers, he decided to speak once again. "Remember, if the papers burns it's katon, if it crumble, raiton, if the paper splits in half, fuuton, if it's wet, suiton and if it turns to dust, doton.
As sensei Aoba instructed, Yuugao and Kurenai channeled chakra through the papers. With that, Yuugao's chakra paper soaked wet and Kurenai turned to ashes, meaning suiton for Yuugao and katon for Kurenai.
"Ah, I see you got suiton, Yuugao-san, actually it's perfect for your style of fighting, since you can fight in great speeds, the basics of suiton ninjutsu is having the force of a strong current from the bottom and calm from the surface. As your fluidity in moving progresses, so will be your suiton ninjutsu. But unfortunately, I don't have most knowledge on suiton ninjutsus, making it difficult for me to teach you, but take this. This scroll with give you everything to know about suiton jutsu and how to attain it. Now about the list of jutsus at the last page of the scroll, do not try does labeled as B ranked jutsus only until you become chunnin". – Said Aoba as he tossed a big-sized scroll with practically all that is to know about suiton jutsus.
"Now, Kurenai-san, since your element is fire, I believe a more direct approach from me will be sufficient for ninjutsu training, seeing the fact that you wanted to specialized in genjutsu usage. So, I would be teaching four katon jutsus that I believe that will serve you quite well, now to fully use elemental chakra in battle.
Kurenai, for her part, was a little bit sad about hearing from Aoba that resorting only to genjutsu in battle isn't enough, but she dismissed the thought when he clarified saying that it wasn't a problem with genjutsu, Aoba explained that if a ninja resorts to one specific ability in battle, the enemy can overpower him easily, so in order to surprise the opponent, the ninja must have more than good ability, hence the fact why a jounin must master at least two chakra elements to pass the jounin test.
"Now, Yuugao since you have suiton affinity, here is a scroll that explains everything you need to know about suiton ninjutsu. Also, try to find someone who could explain them better or to answer any doubts you may have. I'm terribly sorry I won't be able to teach you about it, but I promise to help when I can, okay?"
"It's okay, Aoba-sensei. My father has suiton affinity as well, I'll ask him". – Said Yuugao smiling to her sensei, making him relax a little bit, since he was truly depressed that he wasn't able to help one of his students. Since Aoba was more of a katon user and much less a doton user, suiton ninjutsu simply was the complete opposite of the ones he mastered.
--At the Namikaze Compound--
Now back at home, Naruto left his shopping bags on the table, since it was time for lunch. Actually Naruto was really hungry a while ago, but somehow the quest for having 'cool ninja stuff', said by himself, made him forget about the fact that his stomach was calling for some assistance, which was surprising for both Naruto and Kushina, since his stomach growled practically the entire time they were at the ninja store and Naruto didn't make a single complain.
After some lunch that he ate together with his mother, Naruto run upstairs to learn some more about fuuton chakra. The reason why he was eager with excitement was simple, the next page on the book was an E ranked ninjutsu called Fuuton Kaze no Jutsu (Wind Style: Wind Breeze Jutsu) and he was desperate to try his first fuuton ninjutsu, but little did Naruto know that he already did his first one, by subconsciously adding wind chakra when using the shunshin.
Which could be counted like a blur, Naruto entered his room, shut the door, picked the fuuton book and proceeded to his desk in less than a second. After the book recognized Naruto's affinity, which in fact is necessary since the book doesn't has a memory seal to know Naruto's chakra before check, he opened and proceeded to read where he stopped last time. As he was reading, he came to learn that D ranked fuuton ninjutsu could be learnt by having mastered the tree walking exercise as opposed to C and higher techniques which required at least water walking exercise, which according to Naruto, he wanted to take it easy at keeping up non-stop on intellectual or spiritual exercises such as chakra control and using ninjutsu. Because of a little incident with kage bunshin while trying water walking, he suffered some extreme headache after dispelling the clones, so now he focused mainly on harnessing physical skills, like taijutsu and now target practice since he just acquired kunais and shurikens.
As he progressed through the book, he reached his objective for the day which was to read about D ranked fuuton ninjutsu and how to use Fuuton Kaze no Jutsu. Reading intently, trying not to miss any information regarding the technique, he read the information twice:
Fuuton Kaze no Jutsu – D ranked. With the seals as showed below, the ninja throws a wind breeze, by focusing a little quantity of fuuton chakra through the ninja's lungs and then exhale it through your mouth. This is a weak version of the Fuuton Daitoppa no Jutsu, which even though has the same concept, is labeled as a C ranked jutsu, because of further use of chakra.
Figuring he had down the concept of the technique, he went outside for training. The day was a little chilly which proved to make it hard for him to see if he was able to do it or not. Deciding to turn to the book once again to see if he missed anything, he came to a part which could really help him see if he managed to do it. In order to learn this technique, you have to use against an object who wouldn't move because of the air breeze like leaves, use instead a little piece of rock which by your wind breeze, could move it.
Finding a rock as described on the book, he closed his eyes and started doing the meditation part in a way so that fuuton chakra starts running through his tenketsus. After ten minutes of it, he began to feel fuuton chakra travel inside his body like he was travelling through the air, certainly relaxing every part of his body in the process. Actually this new meditation exercise of Naruto (which was described in the book), made his body relax in a way that Naruto could swear that he was lighter than normal. His body was so light that he thought that if he jumped he would just float back on the ground.
Now waken up from his meditation and with fuuton chakra running through his body, Naruto remembered the hand signs as he progressed through them, molding his chakra for the technique. For his first try, he didn't even felted any breeze coming from his mouth and only after a while, did he realized that he not gathering enough chakra through his lungs which showed him that even though the book stated that such technique could be learned from having tree walking level of chakra control, it wouldn't be impossible to do it, just difficult. As determined as he was and the fact that he had nothing else to do, he tried again and again. At the third try, he was able to feel the breeze through his throat. Now happy and even more determined, he did once again the hand seals for this time, making the rock move but only slightly. Now fuming with rage for not getting the rock to move further, he decided to have a differentapproach, pumping more chakra through his lungs and see what happened. After he did it, when he opened his mouth, actually of a little wind breeze, Naruto's was more like a gust of wind, throwing the little rock far away as well as yank a little tree from the ground that his mother had just planted a while ago.
Seeing this, he was frightened to death. Somehow Kushina developed a passion for gardening and he began buying book after book about it, trying to learn how to plant and create a beautiful garden. Now remembering his mother's reaction when Minato accidently stepped one of her plants and Naruto was now terrified but also happy, happy because somehow if the book was right, Naruto just made the Fuuton Daitoppa no Jutsu (Wind Style: Great Breakthrough Jutsu). Since Naruto read a lot, his intellect was further developed and he now was using his thinking only to conclude that the more chakra needed for the technique, the less chakra control he needed for it, being that a theory to him, since he did his supposedly first fuuton ninjutsu and a C level no less.
Nevertheless, Naruto was terrified, but he decided not to tell anyone, since it would be him on Kushina's target. With Minato, all she did was chase him with throwing kunais at him but since Minato was way faster than Naruto, he feared that he wouldn't be able to dodge the kunai and will be certain death for him, but he figured that being his mother, she wouldn't go to such a state….or would she? Thinking nothing of it, he turned to see the living room as he hear Minato's voice announcing his arrival.
Instantly, he shunshined in a little tornado and appeared in front of his father trying to scare him or catch him off guard. Just as he arrived where he would catch his father off guard, he didn't count that Minato being the hokge AKA strongest ninja on the village, as he sensed fuuton chakra, just gave two steps further from where he was and turned out, now facing a clueless Naruto trying to search for his father.
"Trying to scare me Naruto-kun?" – Said Minato, earning a scream from Naruto who was caught by his father by only walking some steps.
"Ahhhh. Tou-san how did you know what I did even before I appeared?" - Shouted Naruto now slightly mad about being busted from his little joke with his father, as well as interested on how the hell did his father knew where he would appear even before he appeared, little did he know that his shunshin was different than the regular, since it used elemental chakra, therefore being easily noticeable.
"I sensed you coming, that's all, why were you trying to scare me is what I would like to know huh little fellow? Would you think you could scare a hokage Naruto-kun?" – Smiled Minato, not knowing of his son's quick response as well as the fact that Naruto scared him once.
"Ok, first of all, I did already scared you back when I shunshined behind you. But tell me how were you able to know where I would be appearing? I mean, the shunshin supposed to be an evasive technique." – Answered Naruto, earning mumbles from the hokage which sounded like 'smartass'.
"Well, Naruto-kun, a normal shunshin would be an evasive technique, but what you did wasn't a regular one". Said Minato, before looked at his son's face to realize that what he just said didn't make any sense to Naruto.
"What do you mean normal shunshin, I thought that was only one kind. Aoba-sensei taught that to me while his team was here". – Said Naruto, not using his intellect even the slightest, because if he did, he would conclude that every time, since he started reading the book, he tended to apply fuuton chakra as well.
"So, you mean to tell me that you don't know you are using fuuton chakra together with the shunshin?" – Asked Minato only with the purpose to enlighten his son's question, since he saw the young kid's eyes widen in realization of what happened. Naruto for his part, felt like an idiot now, seeing that he was subconsciously using fuuton chakra every time.
"Son, don't berate yourself, already using elemental manipulation at your age is an astonishing feat and it seemed that by your display of shunshin, that your element in wind. But tell me son, how did you know about even using fuuton chakra let alone actually make fuuton ninjutsus?" – Asked Minato, now more perplexed at the fact that his son could already use fuuton chakra with six years old. Naruto for his part, remembered his father berating him for training high leveled ninjutsu before going to the academy and he didn't want for his father to know about his book about fuuton jutsu, but now he had to tell and await the consequences.
"When you and mom were away, I went to the library and found a book about fuuton ninjutsu written by a famous jounin back in Suna. The book had a seal that check to see if the person who's holding the book has fuuton as an element and when I picked it up from the library, the book checked me and open. I've been reading it ever since." – Said Naruto with his head down, awaiting the punishment, with surprisingly enough, never came, instead Minato just landed his hand on top of Naruto's head and began to harass his hair while smiling.
"What, were you expecting punishment for disobeying my orders, Naruto-kun. Don't be really, I laid that order in order to prevent any serious danger involving using high leveled ninjustu and the affect on the person's chakra supply, but since you were precocious either by understanding the concept behind fuuton ninjutsu as well as tree walking chakra level of control mastered, but I'm sure that the book said to have at least water walking exercise chakra control. Be proud of yourself Naruto-kun, you are growing and soon you will be a great shinobi, I can pretty much see it". – Said Minato extremely proud of his son's early accomplishments and soon to be considered a genius just like Itachi.
Now wondering about the Uchiha genius, The yondaime was worried about him. It's been some time since he was upgrated to Anbu captain and according to the head of the Anbu division, Itachi seemed to be getting somewhat bored about doing what seemed to be 'almost suicidal missions'. Minato strongly believed that putting a 13 year old into Anbu, was pure madness. Anbu can surely be stressful to say the least, few hours to sleep every day, constantly locked in death battles and war zones, being an Anbu wasn't just because the guy had skills as a shinobi. Experience on the battlefield was vital for an Anbu to survive while serving as an Anbu. Itachi, some time ago, told Minato that he saw great potential in Naruto as a future shinobi and now Minato figured that Naruto was actually the main reason why the Uchiha genius didn't go nuke-nin or something like that. Itachi, considered a genius among shinobi, had an advanced growth, so to say. Graduated at the academy with seven years old, being chunnin by the age of ten. He was the reason why Naruto didn't go to the academy at an early age. Taking it easy sometimes helped more than push up the limit. The mind has to have time to grow, every step in life should be taken one at a time, so as to not backfire and the ninja snap and lose his sanity in the process. Itachi eventually cursed in front of the Yondaime about shinobis being too damn proud of their kekkei genkais or heritage and the fact that all of them with very few exceptions didn't even bother to train harder or even progress the bloodline.
Now looking at his son, he figured the answer to a doubt he brought up to the Sandaime about what to do in order to grow the future genin's skills as well as intellect, mind training. Like Naruto, every academy student must form his little library of books to read about shinobi aspects or at least have an weekly attendance at Konoha's public library. Sometimes, the search for information can overcome some doubts as well as harness the ninja's way of thinking so to get out of a tough situation or come up with an strategy to complete the mission. For Naruto's part, he was watching his father as he was lost in thoughts about something he couldn't put his mind on. "Uh, tou-san?"
"What, oh sorry about that, tell me Naruto-kun, how much of fuuton chakra usage you know and more importantly, is fuuton shunshin the only technique you know how to do?" – Asked Minato, awaiting the answer only to confirm the last piece of the puzzle that was to come up with a new academy.
"Actually, I didn't know I made fuuton shunshin, but I also have a second technique I learned from the book. Well, actually, I didn't quite get it. You see the technique called Fuuton Kaze no Jutsu is a D ranked one, but because my control is not up to water walking level, I couldn't do it completely. But as I read the book, it said that such technique is a weaker version of the Fuuton Daitoppa no Jutsu with the difference being more chakra. So after a few 20 times I tried that first one, I grew tired of it and just used a lot of chakra, actually doing the latter, but there is one problem, Tou-san and I think that kaa-san would not be as thrilled as you are right now". – Said Naruto now being frightened again.
"What is it? Wait, you didn't mean you….You said you used the Fuuton Daitoppa at the garden, no Naruto-kun, that technique could dismantle any tree from the garden, wait a minute.." – Said Minato as he went to the garden, only to see the entire landscape from the right corner leveled and place where Kushina's first plant gone (well, second being first the one that he stepped in).
"Naruto-kun, your mother is going to be so pissed at you and the fact is I'm too scared of her to…" – Said Minato stopping dead on his tracks as his shinobi senses were shouting like mad people running away from a bijuu and instantly he knew this feeling. It was the same time he stepped on top of the first plant Kushina grew and now his son was in deep trouble.
What could be described as hilarious from some people, for Naruto and Minato was a scene for Shinigami himself in a bad day. When Naruto and Minato turned, their eyes meet with Kushina's red blood eyes fuming with rage at not only seeing the entire landscape leveled, but also her plant gone. Without hesitation and utterly furious, Kushina picked a kunai and started to chase the Namikaze duo in extreme rage, much to the blonde's despair.
"Naruto-kun, deactivate your gravity seal this instant and….run for your life." – Screamed Minato as he along with his son was sprinting around the now leveled garden with Kushina chasing them with a kunai in hand and screaming for blood.
--Meanwhile at the Hyuuga Household--
Hyuuga Hizashi and Hyuuga Neji were sparring when suddenly they felt a major killing intent coming from the namikaze residence.
"Tou-san, did you feel it? It's coming from Naruto-san's house? Do you think they are in danger? Should we help them?" – Asked Neji before seeing that his father was trying hard not to fall down laughing like a maniac. After a little struggle, he gave up and held his stomach laughing his ass off at what he spotted with his byakugan.
"Neji-kun, do me a favor, try to use your byakugan a little further and you will understand why I'm like this, Hahahahah" – Said Hizachi, almost not able to even talk because of all the laughter and the sudden loss of air while laughing.
As Neji activated further the byakugan, he came to a scene of Naruto and the Hokage running away from what seemed to be a possessed Kushina holding a kunai in a threatening manner towards the two. Upon seeing this, he could only do one thing…..laugh just like his father did, because of the funny situation of seeing the hokage running away scared from a bloodthirsty wife a kunai on her hand.
--Back at the Namikaze Compound--
After some thirty laps around the namikaze compound, a tired Kushina just went inside having given up from getting angry at the blondes, since she came to realize that while they used the garden as training, a lot of damage could be done, so she figured that she would open a garden store or buy a little land just for gardening.
For Naruto and Minato's part, they whispered in relief seeing that their supposed killer had given up and just went inside. Recovering his breathing now, Minato turned to Naruto and promply asked Naruto to do the Fuuton Daitoppa again so he could see it. Just as Naruto was going to do the jutsu, his father stopped him pointing to the air showing him where to aim the technique, which he complied with laughter and scratching the back of his head, not wanting to have to escape his mother's wrath any longer.
"Fuuton Daitoppa no Jutsu" – Said Naruto as he exhaled now a larger gust of wind from his mouth up to the sky, earning some applauses from his father. Needless to say Naruto's skills were growing at an excellent pace.
