The following morning, Naruto looked up as everyone showed up at the same time. Kakashi, Yamato, Gai, Asuma, Kurenai, Hinata, Shino, Kiba, Akamaru, Choji, Shikamaru, Neji, Tenten, Rock Lee and even Jiraiya was there on time. "So is everyone here then?" When they all nodded he stepped away from Tsukino and smiled. "Time to go play with toads."
Stepping out, Neji gave Naruto an odd look. "Naruto. How exactly are we going to get there anyway? No one here knows where that is."
Laughing, Naruto nodded. "I am going to summon Gamakichi. He is going to do a reverse summoning and take all of us back to Mt. Myoboku." He then turned and bit his thumb. "Summoning Jutsu."
Blinking when the rather large toad showed up, Tsukino blinked. Then she registered the colors. "Wait Gamakichi is that really you?"
Turning from Naruto Gamakichi blinked to see Tsukino standing there holding a baby. But when Naruto stepped back and put his arm around her he gasped as his eyes went super wide. "When did the two of you have a kid together!?"
With a sigh as he felt her flinch and look down at Sumaru, Naruto sighed. "No Gamakichi it isn't like that. But that is part of the reason why I am coming to Mt. Myoboku with everyone here. I will explain later alright."
Nodding as he relaxed, Gamakichi forgets sometimes that since Konohamaru died, that Naruto isn't the same kid that he used to be. "Right." He then reached in his pocket and pulled out a long scroll and rolled it out. "Everyone stand next to each other on the scroll, then I will do a reverse summoning and take everyone here to Mt. Myoboku." But then turned to Naruto as he laughed. "You did make sure to tell everyone what I told you about the food right Naruto?"
"Yeah I told them. If they didn't listen that is on them." Laughing some Naruto stepped on the scroll next to Tsukino and sighed. "Ready when you are Gamakichi."
"Alright here we go. Reverse Summoning Jutsu." He then touched his hand to the scroll and in a puff of smoke everyone was back on Mt. Myoboku. "Here we are everyone. Home sweet home."
Looking around with wide eyes, Tsukino blinked. It was like they went to some fantasy land. It was nothing but mushrooms and toadstools everywhere. "Oh my. This is beautiful."
"Glad you like it girl."
Turning around everyone gasped to see a rather old, and very tiny frog standing behind them. Blinking Naruto let his head fall to the side. "Who are you? I have never summoned you before."
"My power is beyond what you can summon right now Naruto boy. But my name is Fukusaku. I am an elder here and master of Sage Jutsu." He looked to the side as Gamabunta came up behind them with a thump. "And I am Bunta boy's grandfather."
"I see then." Naruto sighed as he looked around at all the shocked faces and smiled. "You know Jiraiya. The rest of them are all the Genin that I….."
"Katsuyu girl came here last night and brought a file for them all." Fukusaku pulled all eyes to him as he jumped to land on Jiraiya's head. "And you will all be learning some level of sage jutsu. Can anyone tell me what that is exactly?"
"Would you get off my head to talk to them Fukusaku?" With a glare as he crossed his arms, Jiraiya sighed. "I mean really."
Reaching down and smacking Jiraiya in the face with his fan, Fukusaku glared. "You got no room to talk Jiraiya boy. Now shut your mouth and stand still." He then turned to the group with a sigh. "Now does anyone know what sage jutsu is?"
"It is where you incorporate nature energy into the energy that you already use." His eyes focused, Neji crossed his arms. He knew what the basic concept of sage jutsu was. Though he also knew that no one knew how to teach it but possibly Jiraiya.
"That is correct. Now do you know what you can do when you use sage jutsu, and go into sage mode?" When Neji didn't say anything, Fukusaku sighed as he leapt off of Jiraiya's head and hopped over to a huge stature of a frog. "When you are in Sage Mode, you can sense chakra. Not just levels, but each person has a different type of chakra. Most like a dog can pick up the scent of one person over thousands and follow that one scent. Your instincts increase, and your strength is ten fold." He then folded his hands together and with a little effort, lifted the statue that was bigger than Gamabunta over his head then gently sat it back down. "That is just one of the things that you can do in Sage Mode."
His eyed hard and focused, Naruto drew the old frog's eyes to him as he sighed. "Okay so here is a question for you. You know about what I have in me and who my parents were right?"
Going to look up at Naruto, Fukusaku nodded. "I do indeed Naruto boy. Your father came here just like Jiraiya boy and trained in sage jutsu as well. I knew him well."
"Do you think that with the level of chakra that I have, and what I know, that this is going to give me the step up to defeat the man that took the fox from my mother and in turn killed them?" His blue eyes taking on a gleam that only those who could look into Minato's eyes would know. Naruto wasn't going to pull any punches. If Sage Mode couldn't do that then he was going to focus only on the chakra chains and what not from his mother.
Nodding as he crossed his arms, Fukusaku sighed. "Yes Naruto boy that is exactly what it will let you do. We may not be out and around the normal parts of this world. However we know what happens. Especially in the Leaf. And if you can master this, then you will be much more powerful than them and will be able to stop them and Sasuke."
"Then show me what I need to do." Naruto took a deep breath as he narrowed his eyes. He wasn't going to say anything where Tsuki could hear him, but he figured that it would be about time for Sasuke to move and try to find her. He was sure that by n ow he realized what happened.
Smiling, Fukusaku nodded. "Right. First we eat and then I will tell you what you have to do first." He then turned and started to hop away. "Ma has been cooking all day I hope that everyone has an appetite."
With a big grin, Jiraiya followed him. "Awesome! I have missed Shima's cooking."
Flinching along with everyone else, Naruto sighed. "I think we can handle our own thanks. Especially the baby you know." He then dropped his head as they all followed. "Oh man I can't believe that is likes that sort of stuff."

"What the hell did you just say!?" Sasuke opened his Sharingan with a glare he blasted a hole through the wall behind Dairoku. "I missed it? No one called anyone there chief. He wasn't there!"
"She was." When his eyes narrowed, Dairoku sighed as he crossed his arms. "The Chief of the Moon is a girl named Tsukino. You can't miss her. She is the only one of the Moon with tanned skin, snow white hair and emerald green eyes."
Getting ready to send another blast, Sasuke stopped as his eyes turned to black again. "Wait. I need to go back to the Moon." He then stood up and walked past him and out of the room. He was about to kill her when others thought that they could rescue her, and he forgot all about her. She wasn't fatally wounded so she may still be alive.
Rushing to catch up to Sasuke, but not side by side, Dairoku sighed. "She is not there. When I heard this news about who the chief was, I stopped by there on my own. There tracks leaving. When I followed them, they lead right to the Leaf."
Stopping and turning a hard glare on him, Sasuke blinked. "You are sure about that Dairoku?" When he nodded, Sasuke crossed his arms as he sighed. He has been keeping tabs on Naruto and what he has been doing since he killed Konohamaru. He hasn't been slouching. "Then we have our work cut out for us. We attack the Leaf in three days. Full on assult. Leave no one and nothing alive. Get every single ninja that I have and get them ready to move. Understood?"
Nodding as he gave a bow, Dairoku smiled. "Of course Lord Sasuke." He then turned and went a different way from Sasuke. He knew why he wanted them all. Naruto. He has grown in leaps and bounds. But there is nothing that Naruto knows that he can use to defeat Sasuke. Nothing.
