Thank you for all of the reviews and please keep them coming. Now, on to the story!

Chapter 8

During the first month of the last year of Naruto's test his body was sitting in the chair in the study while he was talking with Kyuubi and his father.

"I'm kinda worried about these last fights, my element manipulation is great but I need to find a way to use it more effectively and I need to find a better way to train!"

Kyuubi was currently sitting in a chair she had had Naruto make for her as a way to see if he could change their surroundings in any way "well you could always use the elements in a form of taijutsu but I don't know any that they would suit best...and as for the training your clones do make it faster but the constant drain on your chakra is a problem."

Arashi had been thinking through the exchange "with all of the people's memories and skills he has now maybe..." he snapped his fingers "Naruto! I have a brilliant idea. Why not use the idea behind shadow clones and your accumulated skills to created exact copies? Think about it, each person you touched has their own template so why not use it to split yourself? you could leave a clone doing whatever it needs to do and go off and do something else!."

Naruto had no idea what the old hokage was talking about but thought he had the gist "so however many people I have touched I can make that many full clones but instead of them disappearing I have to merge with them..." Naruto focused for a moment and stepped forwards.

Standing in the spot he had just left was an exact copy of Naruto, it saluted Naruto then the blonde stepped back and joined with the clone again while receiving its few moments of experiences like a normal kage bunshin.

"Ok that was cool; it didn't even use much chakra!"

Naruto was smiling while the other two had there mouths hanging open "wow" "and all of the people he has touched he could make an absolute ARMY of shadow clones!"

After thanking the two Naruto woke up in his chair and went to the training ground. After walking into the centre Naruto created seven full clones "ok, all of you make as many kage-bunshin as you can. Five of you use the taijutsu information we have to develop a style for each of the elements; the other two will work on new jutsu while I work on physical strength and conditioning"

Each of the clones took a different space and practiced with their kage-bunshin while Naruto walked to the dojo, when he got to the practice targets he looked at his weights "I wonder what these are on now...I put them on years ago and they increase when my body gets used to them..." after channelling chakra into the bands to show how much they weighed "HOLY SHIT!" the bands weighed several thousand pounds "what the FUCK, I cant have had them on that long..." dispelling the jutsu on the weights Naruto suddenly felt like he was lighter than air.

Coming back to the present Naruto is once again in team seven training grounds with his team-mates. Kakashi had already told them that he would be training Sasuke for the exam and Sakura would have her own tutor, basically leaving Naruto out in the cold "Kakashi, I would like a word with you. Can we take a walk for a moment?"

Thou to the two genin it sounded like an innocent request Kakashi knew it for what it was a demand.

after walking off a little way the short blonde turned and faced his 'sensei' only to suddenly send him slamming into a tree nearby with a powerful hit to the stomach "what the HELL do you think you are playing at, you are favouring that BRAT Sasuke because he is the last connection to Obito you have except for your eye."

Kakashi was shocked, not only for the punch but the rage that radiated off of the blonde was staggering "I am your sensei Naruto, what I decide to do..."

He didn't have a chance to finish as Naruto punched him in the side of the face, sending him flying. His voice slowly changing Naruto turned to the silver haired jounin "you disappoint me Kakashi; I thought I taught you better than that!"

Kakashi looked up and saw Arashi's image overlap Naruto's "s...sensei?"

Arashi was now holding a complete rasengan in his right hand "in the 'flesh', now as for you Kakashi I'm ashamed I was your teacher. This is my SON, that is irrelevant now. I want you to bring your father's sword to him before you leave, he doesn't need a teacher any more." holding out his left hand "he now knows everything you do"

combining the rasengan with Kakashi's signature jutsu the 'Chidori' he made a new lightning rasengan "tell Sarutobi-sensei to prepare, he has a month to train" letting go of the rasengan he threw the jounin a small pouch "mix a level spoonful of that with a cup of water and drink ALL of it once a day, that will strengthen your body to make up for not being an Uchiha."

Walking back to the group Arashi turned back into Naruto, when Kakashi got back the blonde turned to Sakura " ok, I want you two to promise what I'm about to tell you goes no farther than this group" his team mates were weary but nodded " there is going to be an invasion during the end of the exams, Suna and Orochimaru are going to attack and I want us to be ready" turning to Sakura he pulled out what looked like a pair of bracelets and threw them to her.

"Sakura, when you channel chakra to those bracelets (depending on how much you add) turn into gauntlets that physical strength to rival the slug sennin's and enhance your chakra control in your hands so I suggest you learn the chakra scalpel jutsu for hand to hand fighting."

After dropping that bombshell on her he turned to Sasuke " ok Sasuke, I know you want to kill your brother because he decimated your family but if you travel that road the seal on your shoulder will consume you and Orochimaru will use you as his new body. You will do unforgivable things and become WORSE than Itachi, BUT if you join us in fighting him then I will help you as a friend to bring your brother to justice" finishing his speech he threw him the sharingan sword he had made.

Looking over the sword Sasuke was impressed to say the least, he could sense the power coming from the blade and it resonated with him in a way he couldn't describe "where did you get this?"

Naruto smiled "will you allow me to remove that seal?"

Sasuke nodded

The blonde walked over and placed his had over the cursed seal, feeling Orochimaru's soul in it he changed into his seal master form and pulled the 'poison' out of the chakra in the seal. After changing back he smiled "the seal that is on your shoulder is no longer poisoning your mind, you can now access the power within it without going mad or evil"

Before he left he turned his head back to face him "that sword will copy any other special attribute other swords have without the nasty side affects, use it well"

Disappearing in a flash of speed he stopped where he felt ero-sennin, sitting in a tree above the hot springs he was peeping on the women "ero-baka, get down here now before I have to get you killed"

Jiraiya looked down to see Naruto smiling up at him, not thinking the boy would he shrugged and went back to what he was doing with a perverted giggle.

the blonde (now angry with the pervert) sighed and slammed a fist into the tree trunk, the sudden jolt made Jiraiya fall into the women's hot spring while Naruto shouted "PERVERT!" making all of the women jump up and started a beating the frog-sennin would never forget and thank Kami it wouldn't be repeated.

While walking away from the hot-springs Naruto felt a pull in his mind so, following it Naruto came to Kyuubi and the forth's 'room.

Both spirits that resided within the boy looked like they were trying VERY hard not to laugh. After asking what was so funny Kyuubi set Naruto the information she and Arashi had recently found out….

Outside of the blonde's mind all over konoha people could here his laughter

"You have GOT to be shitting me!" the other two shook there heads while howling and holding their sides

what Naruto had just found out was that while he was causing the perverted hermit's beating his two tenants were looking over his bloodlines for the first time and what they found was what caused them to laugh so much, the byakugan it seemed DID have another level to it but there were conditions to it's release, the conditions were that you had to be kind, selfless and be willing to protect others with no thought for yourself… the only Hyuuga that ANYONE knew that was all of those things was Hinata, every other member of the family thought she was weak because of her personality but in truth that was what made her stronger than any of them.

Author's note I FINALLY got access to this thing. Sorry about how short it is but better than nothing J need help with the next level of the Hyuuga bloodline, I already know what it should look like but any ideas on its abilities would help THANKYOU.
