Chapter 9: Some Training with an Old Pervert
1 Day Later
It had been a day since the preliminary round. Naruto went to his house after the preliminaries and rested for the rest of the day. He would begin his training today with Kakashi... or so he thought.
"What do you mean you can't teach me?!" Naruto yelled at his sensei at their team training ground.
"I mean I can't train you because I have already promised Sasuke to train him." Kakashi replied back still reading his book. "But don't fret, I got you a trainer that is a jounin as well."
"I don't need your charity, I'll do it on my own." Naruto answered before storming off to go blow some steam. Once he had made it to a training ground, he summoned about 100 clones and started fighting them all at once. He continued this process for about one hour as he then became quickly tired from it all.
'Was that really necessary?' Kyubbi asked him.
'Sorry I'm just pissed. Stupid Kakashi won't teach me and I am facing a person who uses genjutsu. I don't even know how to defend from that!' Naruto replied obviously mad at his current situation.
'You do know you have me, right?'
'Do you know any genjutsus?' Naruto asked excitedly.
'No.' At this Naruto pouted. 'But I can break out of them fairly easily.'
'Really? Awesome!'
'Yep, all you have to do is train and I'll take care of the genjutsus for you. I don't need my container being weak.'
'Alright. I'm going to go relax a bit. See you later.' Naruto said to which Kyubbi just 'hm'd' to. Naruto then headed off to one of the most relaxing places in the Leaf village: the bathhouses.
Naruto then made his way to the bathhouses. Once he got there, he got into the men's side of the bath house and laid back in the water. All was peaceful, everything was quiet... except a giggling that Naruto heard. He sighed and got out of the water to investigate who could be making such a sound on this side of the bath house. What he ended up finding was white appeared to be an old man peeping on the women's side of the bath. Every few seconds he would let out a giggle and write down something on a piece of paper.
"HEY YOU OLD PERVERT!" Naruto yelled at the man which surprised him. He fell over and onto the other side of the bath house. The next thing Naruto heard was women screaming the word 'pervert' and the sound of an old man getting beat up. After about 10 minutes, the old man dragged himself back to the men's side of the bath house.
"WHY DID YOU RAT ME OUT BRAT?!" The old man yelled as he got a look at the blonde. He instantly noticed right away who it was but he decided to go along.
"I was stopping you from peeping on innocent women you old pervert!"
"Kid, do you know who I am?" The old man asked.
"An old creepy pervert?" Naruto asked sarcastically.
"No. I am the Sage of Mount Myoboku! The woeer of women's hearts! One of the three Legendary Sannin! One of the strongest shinobi in the world! The Gallant Jiraiya!" Jiraiya yelled as he completed his introduction. What was worse was that he was dancing with it as well.
...
...
...
"Pervy Sage."
"Eh? What did you say?"
"Your new title is Pervy Sage!" Naruto yelled laughing at the eccentric old man.
"HEY! I WON'T TAKE THIS FROM A BRAT!" Jiraiya yelled back about to leave. 'He acts just like Minato, even my nickname...'
"Wait before you go, could you train me?" Naruto asked excitedly.
"And why would you want me to train you and why would I even train you?" Jiraiya asked suspiciously.
"Well, my team and I met one of you three Sannin people in the second exam and he was really strong. I was thinking you would be strong too."
"YOU MET OROCHIMARU?!"
"Yeah."
"AND YOU SURVIVED?"
"It seems so. So can you train me?"
"Hmmm... I guess I should so if you do meet him again you will stand a chance. We will start tomorrow because I have to go speak with the Third." Jiraiya said as he shunsined away.
'Eh, what a pervert.' Naruto thought as he got changed and began to leave.
'Definitely. But the Three Sannin are no joke, if you could get one to train you...'
'Yeah yeah, hopefully he will train me.' Naruto replied as he got into his house and laid down on his bed. 'Man I'm beat.'
'But kit, we haven't even begun your mental training.'
'What's that?'
'We will be training your mind for quicker thinking and strategies. Also, we can start expanding your mind.'
'Eh, what's that mean?'
'Wow you're so dense. We will expand your mind so you can use your jutsu from the scroll on more then 1 person at a time and without passing out.'
'Wow that's cool! So what do you think is my limit?'
'I would say most likely around 3. Remember, even if you did absorb someone you don't get their abilities till you go to sleep and take in everything.'
'Okay let's get started!' Naruto said as he went to sleep and began his mental training.
The Next Day
Naruto awoke with a jolt. It had been a grueling night with Kyubbi and his mental training. He got out of bed and made his way to the kitchen for breakfast. After eating, he decided to go get some light training in and practice more jutsu. He made it to his team training ground when he saw someone familiar there.
"Hey! You're that pervert from yesterday!" Naruto yelled.
"I'm not a pervert... I'M A SUPER PERVERT!" He yelled back. "And my name is Jiraiya to you kid."
"So what are you doing here?"
"I'm here to train you." Jiraiya answered him.
"Okay, so what are you going to teach me first?" Naruto asked suspiciously.
"Well before we get training started, I was wondering if you wanted to sign a summoning contract." Jiraiya replied.
"Serious?! What will it be?" Naruto asked excitedly.
"You will sign the Toad contract. Toads are very good companions in battle which is what you are: a fighter."
"Cool! How does it work?"
Jiraiya then summoned a giant scroll. He unraveled it to reveal a blank scroll with only his name on it. "Okay kid, you will sign here in blood and you will be ready to summon."
Naruto then pricked his thumb and signed his name on the scroll. Jiraiya showed him the hand signs that he would need to summon a toad. Naruto then began performing the hand signs and slammed his hand on the ground. The result shocked both Naruto and Jiraiya.
Naruto was now standing on top of a large toad who was red. He had a pipe in his mouth and a scar running alongside his eye.
"Who summoned me?" Asked the giant toad.
"M-e si-r." Naruto said, this being his first time talking to the boss toad.
"You? A runt summoning me, the boss toad!"
"Hey! I did do it!" Naruto yelled back not going to be talked down by this toad, no matter how much bigger he was.
"Heh, I like you kid. But to be worthy to summon me, you have to pass a test."
"And what is that?" Naruto asked.
"You have to ride on top of me for 3 hours straight. You understand?" The toad said to Naruto.
"Yeah let's do this!" Naruto yelled as the toad start hopping around the area really fast. Naruto managed to stay on the toad for 3 hours straight while learning some things about the toads like how the boss toad's name was Gamabunta and a little about his family.
When the two returned, they saw Jiraiya writing something down on his scroll. "So it looks like you survived brat?"
"Yep! Now I'm a toad summoner!"
"My time is up. I best be going. Nice meeting you kid." Gamabunta said before poofing away.
"Well it looks like I passed the first part of your training." Naruto said. "What else do we have to learn?"
"Easy brat, I heard from the Third that you are facing someone who is a specialist in genjutsu. I have a few ways to break a genjutsu I could teach you." Jiraiya suggested.
"Eh, I don't need to learn. Kyubbi said he could break me out of a genjutsu if needed." Naruto replied casually.
"WHAT?! YOU KNOW YOU ARE A JINCHURIKI?! YOU HAVE CONTACT WITH HIM?!" Jiraiya asked frantically as he started spouting out questions really fast.
"Yes and yes. He and I are good friends."
'No we aren't.'
'Shut it.'
"So, you are good on breaking genjutsu? I could help you build up more endurance and chakra levels. I could also help on chakra control." Jiraiya suggested, still surprised the kid knew all these things about the Kyubbi and could communicate with it.
"I could use more chakra control lessons. Other then that, only new jutsus will be helpful." Naruto replied.
"Okay kid, for the first 2 week we work on chakra control then the last three weeks I'll teach you some new jutsu." Jiraiya said as he started picking up leaves and putting them on his body only, the leaves were sticking to his body!
"Wow how are you doing that?!"
"I use my chakra to help it stick like it water but it can be applied anywhere. I want you to master this in the two weeks. It will greatly increase your control. I would suggest not starting anywhere near the head." Jiraiya answered as he sat back and watched his new student get to work.
2 Weeks Later
That was how it worked for the next 2 weeks. During the day, Jiraiya would teach him chakra control and at night Kyubbi would help in mental training.
"Okay it's been two weeks! What jutsus am I learning?!" Naruto asked excitedly.
"Calm down kid." Jiraiya said as he pulled out a scroll. "If my information is correct, your affinities are water and wind?"
"Yeah."
"Well, here is a scroll that contains a few water and wind jutsus on it." Jiraiya said as he handed Naruto the scroll.
"Awesome!"
"But, that's not the only jutsu you will be learning."
"What other jutsu will I be learning?" Naruto asked curiously.
Just then, Jiraiya summoned an blue orb of energy in his hand. He let it stay there for a minute, Naruto's eyes curious to how it worked, and then slammed it through the nearest tree to him.
"Cool." Was Naruto's only response as his eyes grew bright with excitement at learning a new jutsu that would hopefully help in the upcoming exam and any other opponents he would end up facing.
A/N: Okay I wanted to make my big rant after the story so you guys could read and all that stuff. I have a few things I need to discuss with you guys. The first is that I might be going to 2 weeks between updates instead of one. This is mainly because of my schedule and my laziness. If I get enough support from the week before I might try for one week update but for now it will be on a 2 week update course. My next point is I need some more criticism (mainly on grammar, but if you find a plot hole tell me) so I can improve my writing skills. I know everyone is busy but if you can take the time for constructive criticism (would like no flaming). My final point is that the halfway mark will be in 2 chapters for this story so continue reading! Thanks for reading this rant and enjoy the story. Next week will be the finals for the chunin exam.
