Alright Guys…I'm sorry you all didn't like the last chapter. I'm sorry to say it was just a filler in order to introduce Fuka into the story. When I bring in a new person he or she must be introduced and then integrated within the story. Some of you may have not like how Fuka treated Naruto. First off Naruto could have easily noticed she was faking but I needed to bring in some fun and also for the two to make a connection. Secondly all these women are either evil, older and did I mention hot.
Seriously they are vixens go to . And type "Betty and Veronica" and see the differences. I tend to go for Veronicas who are the hot dangerous and sexy type of women and Naruto deserves those kind of women. The Betty's are girls like Sakura, Ino you know the usual not my type ones whereas the Veronicas are Kisara, Kurenai, Mei, Fuka, Yukie etc… so in a sense it's Naruto/veronica girls harem LOL. I forgot Ayame too because I like her :p
Anyway those who are confused with the story the plot is this. Naruto will look for Kisara and enter her world doing so for now he is on his way there and is slowly acquiring women's love and attention.
Enjoy everyone!

Uzumaki Naruto was on his apartment roof as he sat on the floor. The wind was creating a nice breeze but the Uzumaki didn't look to be enjoying it at all. In fact he looked serious.
The reason for his mood was due to the scroll he was holding. It was the same scroll Tetsuko gave him.
Thinking about the old lady made him think about his training.
Naruto smiled.
Flashback
"IDIOT!" Tetsuko screamed at Naruto who was holding his head due to the bruise that was now there. Mei sat on a stump and just watched.
The three of them were at the usual training ground.
"Wha…what was that for!" Naruto grunted as he glared this made the old Uzumaki even angrier. She then pointed at his chest where the seals donned.
"Explain to me why you done this" she spoke softly looking to reign in her anger.
Naruto raised his eyebrow and looked at the seals "oh you mean this…I used the chakra lock seal and the containment seal. I just combined them together as I balanced out each seal effects. It was hard but in the end I got the job done" he smiled at Tetsuko now as he looked proud.
Mei nodded as she knew both seals well. To think he managed to combine them both was truly amazing.
"But Naruto both seals are two different things how did you manage to draw out the necessary effects of each seal without hurting yourself" Mei asked making Naruto nod as he touched the spiral seal on his left pectoralis majors.
"It was because of this" he smiled "I call it the centre spiral seal"
"Centre spiral seal" Naruto nodded "yeah as you can see the lines all connect to the spiral. The reason why they connect to it is for the spiral seal to…"
"Transfigure and bring forth the chakra you need for your gates. It basically is like a convertor." Tetsuko interrupted making Naruto smile "yeah it is thanks to that seal I can use my limit"
Mei and Tetsuko nodded the old lady smiled dangerously unknowingly to Naruto "you must be proud of your work right Naruto"
Naruto looked at her like if she was an idiot "damn right I am" Tetsuko smiled and nodded "yes damn right…" she then suddenly punched Naruto on his head again "You are you idiot!"
"OW!" Naruto yelled as he now thrashed around holding his head "hey! I'm not made of rubber you know!" he scowled
"You stupid child!" Tetsuko yelled as she now looked serious. "the seals are all wrong!"
Naruto's eyes went wide while Mei watched in deep thought.
"Wha…what" Naruto stammered
"You heard me…it is all wrong. You should be glad you're still alive" Tetsuko said gravely
End of flashback
Apparently the problem was the central spiral seal he created. Tetsuko said that he was on the right track but the spiral seal was converting two highly different seals. It was like two north side magnets the seals were repelling each other. This was the reason why he could not turn off his Gentei.
"Thank god that's done with" Naruto thought as he mentally thanked the old lady.
The training he had with them was truly fun. It was way better than what he had here. In Konoha was just him on his own. Although that was slowly changing as he trained with Kurenai and Anko nevertheless he had fun.
Naruto smiled as he remembered when Mei joined.
Flashback
"Argh!" Naruto yelled in his Gentei mode as he tried to turn of the energy.
"4 seconds!" Mei yelled as Naruto looked to not turn off the limit.
The area was creating a huge dust due to Naruto's mass energy technique "Tetsuko I….I can't do this!" he yelled making Tetsuko nod and quickly put a supressing seal on his forehead thus turned it off.
Naruto huffed and sat on the ground "alright Naruto today was your first day. We are going to keep trying alright" Naruto nodded at Tetsuko who frowned.
"He has a lot of chakra" she thought. She managed to fix his seals but he still couldn't turn it off. This clearly showed her that his chakra was huge.
Tetsuko then sat on the ground in front of him and spoke "since the day is young I will start teaching you basic seals" Naruto just huffed as he mentally nodded.
He needed to know seals at least at a level where he can make on his own, even if it is the easy ones.
"Alright Naruto today's lesson is history" Naruto groaned making Mei chuckle and Tetsuko a bit annoyed.
"Can we just go on the seals" Naruto asked as he hated lectures.
"No you need to know your clan history" Naruto just sighed as Mei smiled and got up "I have paperwork. You two take care" Mei said as she indeed had paperwork to do but also felt what was being exchanged between the two was very private.
She was about to leave when Naruto spoke "hey…why don't you train with us" his answer got Mei stopping right on her tracks.
She had her eyes wide. Tetsuko equally looked shocked as well.
Naruto looked at Tetsuko's surprised expression and sighed "you don't need to leave you know. I don't mind you learning as well. It's no big deal"
"Naruto" Tetsuko just looked at the man before her not believing what she was hearing.
"So Mei do you want to train with us" Naruto smiled at the woman who had her back turned.
"Why?" was all she said.
"Why not" Naruto raised his eyebrow his answer made Mei surprised remembering their meeting at wave.
"Look your helping me a lot here. Besides I want you here" he smiled and then looked at the red haired old lady "so since Mei's here we can cut off the history talk and get to it right" Naruto tried to get out the boring lecture.
Silence ensued as then Mei suddenly giggled and Tetsuko laughed "alright…Mei, Naruto let's begin"
"Alright!" Naruto yelled as Mei turned around watching the two Uzumaki converse.
"So Tetsuko…are you going to teach us how to summon the death god" Naruto asked getting a bonk on his head by the old lady "don't be absurd you idiot!" she had a tick mark on her head clearly annoyed.
Mei smiled as she watched the two. She particularly looked at Naruto. What he done today for her won't ever be forgotten. He truly saw her as his friend. In a sense he was her first real friend considering how this world worked.
"He's a man" she thought as she smiled a bit wider than usual seeing Naruto nursing his head and swearing.
She would have to pay him back someday no matter what.
End of flashback
Naruto smiled as he remembered him and Mei learning seals. He chuckled remembering when he taught her the Kage bunshin. She surprisingly squealed and hugged him saying that she will do anything he wants. He could swear she said the word "anything" twice the second time was more huskier.
Naruto blushed and then coughed. Anyway with Mei learning the Kage bunshin she managed to learn seals at a fast rate like him. Tetsuko said to only summon two clones as that was all that was needed. Soon when it was time to leave Naruto learned how to make his own seals although not properly. It still was an achievement for him while Mei learned quite a few seal techniques. She said that she will learn how to make some on her own later which he agreed because she had more time than him.
"Nevertheless I have the necessary scroll to progress my training" Naruto said as he clenched the scroll. He then decided to put the scroll inside his vest and resume it later when he had the time. However he first needed to find more information about his clan. Maybe he could find it in the library.
The sun has risen showing that the day has just begun. The Uzumaki decided to begin his breakfast knowing that another red haired lady just woke up.
Thinking about Fuka made him remember what happened when he woke up.
Naruto frowned.
He should speak with her.
Below within Naruto's bedroom Fuka woke up and seeing Naruto not here made he wonder where he was.
Nevertheless she decided to get dressed and begin her day as well.
Naruto's apartment
"Naruto" Fuka said as she ate her toast while Naruto was washing his plate.
The Uzumaki ignored her as he looked to be sulking.
"Oh come on. Nothing happened" she sighed
"Right and I should say waking up within the arms of a naked woman is normal" Naruto said carrying a hint of sarcasm.
"Yes it is" Fuka answered which made Naruto sigh "whatever Fuka. Just leave me alone"
"Is that a way of treating your master Genie" Fuka smirked.
Suddenly Naruto stopped what he was doing and turned around.
He had enough!
"You know what Fuka. I had enough of your games." Naruto spoke seriously.
"What" the red head whispered looking serious.
"You heard me I quit" Naruto stated
"You almost murdered me" Fuka threatened "I could get you executed"
Naruto nodded "and I don't care" Fuka's eyes went wide in shock now.
"I don't care!" he yelled "yesterday was fun I give you that. However what you did last night was uncalled for" Naruto's eyes narrowed "I seriously thought we were friends"
Fuka was surprised making Naruto carry on as he shook his head "stupid I know. However I really felt we had a connection"
"We do Naruto-kun" the red head now looked sad.
"Then why do this!" Naruto yelled
"Why not!" Fuka yelled back this time making Naruto surprised.
"Wha…what" Naruto sputtered as the woman carried on speaking "I consider you my friend too you know"
"Fuka" he said as the woman looked conflicted.
"I never had any friends Naruto. I always had people around me who had their own motives. When I met you in that bar and when you flirted with me. Everything you said felt like the truth."
Naruto's face softened.
"And when we made love I felt connected to you. You know although we never met I felt like I knew you for a long time. Do you get what I mean?"
Naruto nodded as he too felt like he and Fuka were connected.
To think a night of passion brought them together. How fate truly plays its tune.
"I was alone all my life so when our eyes met that night I felt like you knew my pain" she smiled softly.
"I too saw what was behind those eyes of yours. What laid there was pain and anguish" Naruto was frozen in place and was so absorbed to what she had to say he didn't know that Fuka got up and hugged him.
"Naruto you accepted the real me. So please don't push me away because I can take that" she said as she tightened her embrace.
Naruto's eyes turned soft and he hugged her back.
Fuka's eyes were conflicted and sad.
"I won't be able to handle it any longer" she whispered when Naruto stroked her hair which she found very pleasing.
"Fuka"
"Yes"
"I'm sorry" Naruto apologised as he soon felt Fuka sooth his back.
"I'm sorry too Naruto-Kun" she smiled when Naruto now smiled "and Fuka"
"Yeah"
"I will always be you friend" he acknowledged which made her surprised unknowingly to him.
"Na…Naruto-kun" she stammered
"And I'm always there for my friends" Naruto declared as he held tighter.
"Always" he promised.
Fuka looked surprised as her face softened and she just put her face on his chest.
"Promise" she said
"You can count on me" he smiled and Fuka felt that he was really someone she could count on.
The two soon let go. "Fuka…don't take this the wrong way but you shouldn't be here"
Fuka nodded as she knew where he was coming from.
"Okay Naruto-Kun" her answer made him a bit surprised "really…just like that"
Fuka smiled "yes…but don't think you're off the hook. I might visit you some nights"
Naruto sweat dropped.
That was the best he could get out of her so he decided to leave it there.
Fuka now was reading her planner while Naruto was upstairs showering.
The planner said that in a 2 weeks' time the prince was coming and she was supposed to be back to the capital.
"Capital" she muttered as she clenched her diary.
Flashback
"I thank you Fuka for saving me" an old looking but still young black haired man who smiled.
Fuka bowed "N…no it was nothing my lord" the feudal lord sat on his throne and nodded.
"It wasn't anything." He said as he looked at a black haired man who stood at the entrance. The man looked stern making the fire lord smile.
"You see. I am a wanted man and you saving me is enough for me to reward you"
"Re…reward me" Fuka didn't look at the fire lord as she still bowed.
"Yes. Thank you for disposing those two mercenaries. I now managed to get closer to finding out who keeps sending Shinobies to kill me." He said as he looked at the black haired man standing near the door his eyes narrowed a bit.
"So as a reward I will give you a title which I haven't given for a long while"
"Title" Fuka now looked up seeing the man before her smile.
It was a fake smile and Fuka knew that.
"Yes the title of secretary of fire"
End of flashback
Fuka clenched her diary tighter and closed her eyes.
She knew she didn't have time left.
"Fuka" Naruto said as he was now dressed.
"Yes Naruto-kun" she smiled as she looked at him.
"Something wrong because I was calling you for a while" he asked
"Sorry was thinking of something" she answered.
Naruto just nodded and looked to leave "anyway I'm going to go. Make sure nobody sees you"
"I won't Naruto-kun" she nodded.
Naruto smiled and was about to leave when Fuka spoke.
"Naruto-kun…we're friends aren't we" she asked.
Naruto blinked as the question sounded sudden.
"Of course…always" He smiled and then left.
Fuka smiled but soon frowned.
She then suddenly shunshined.
The prince was coming and thanks to that Tsunade just finished a frustrating council meeting. "Frustrated hime" Jiraiya said as he came through the window.
"Damn it! Why is he coming here" Tsunade scowled as she massaged her temple. The council were making a huge fuss about the coming of the prince and started preparing.
"Why would he come here Jiraiya" Tsunade asked "he will just come and wastes our time"
Jiraiya nodded knowing how nobles were like "I know hime it's how they are. It is the reason why me and Minato never liked them"
Tsunade nodded "yes... I heard about the coup and the assassination"
Jiraiya nodded "the assassination of the 4th daimyo of fire country. It caused a great stir when Sensei got back in charge."
Tsunade nodded "when she died the culprits were 6 of the twelve guardians"
"Indeed Asuma and the other 5 fought the traitors and only he and Kiriku survived. The latter soon became a monk"
"But why was there an attempt" Tsunade asked
Jiraiya nodded "the daughter and the heir disappeared and right away the next in line for title landed on her uncle Hensei Kazuki"
Tsunade nodded she remembered when she saw the prince. She sensed that he wasn't shocked in the slightest that his sister died.
"So their father retook his postion because he knew wha kind of person his son was" Jiraiya nodded at what his teammate said.
"Yes but Hime even before it happened Minato had his suspicions and he took what he knew to the grave" Tsunade nodded "and Sensei backing that man just reinforced his image as the future feudal lord"
Jiraiya nodded. His teacher had a list of failures which shamed even him.
Tsunade sighed "Makie was a great leader and now it was like she never existed" the Senju became sad.
She remembered how quick to two became friends, Makie even let her stay in her palace when she wanted to get away from Konoha.
"So you know that I have suspicions on the assassination right" Jiraiya said seriously.
Tsunade nodded and sighed "I agree with you but that must never be uttered from our lips without definite proof"
Jiraiya just nodded as he knew what great powers they were up against.
Shizune now came inside as she notified that Naruto was here.
Tsunade nodded "thank you Shizune let the brat inside" Shizune nodded and then left.
The Godaime sighed "he's another problem" Jiraiya said as he heard the report from Izumo and Kotetsu.
"It seems he and Fuka have met" Jiraiya carried a perverted smile making Tsunade nod. She just ignored his lecherous look "I don't care how but the brat thrashed a damn club. We cannot afford stuff like this happening when the prince comes"
Jiraiya nodded as he now got back to business "indeed if the prince meets Naruto I fear what happened with Haruno Sakuya might happen again" Tsunade nodded and sighed "I need to keep him busy"
Jiraiya suddenly smiled "leave that to me Hime. I need to talk to him anyway" Tsunade nodded "Akatsuki" Jiraiya nodded seriously "yes hime it is time I told him about them in more detail. He needs to be prepared"
Tsunade nodded when Naruto now entered. Once the blond Uzumaki came inside the Hokage sighed.
This was going to be a long day.
"What" Naruto said as he looked surprised
"You heard me. You have a c- ranked mission with Jiraiya. It will begin in 1 weeks' time" Tsunade ordered making Jiraiya nod.
Naruto just sighed he was busy but since in a week's time he was fine with it.
"Naruto get ready we're going to have a short trip" the toad Sannin smiled as he touched Naruto's shoulder "it's going to be fun" Naruto sighed as he indeed knew something will happen.
"Alright is that all" Tsunade nodded "that is all dismissed" Naruto nodded and shunshined leaving the two Sannin's alone.
"I still find it hard to believe how he can attract such vixens" Jiraiya spoke out of the blue the toad Sannin looked like he saw the god himself.
"Shut up you pervert" Tsunade scowled making Jiraiya nod furiously as he didn't want to be sent all the way to the hot springs then get beaten up by the women there again.
Team 8 training ground
Yuhi Kurenai has finished her morning training. Throughout the whole month she was doing chakra control exercises
Naruto was right as indeed she strengthened her Genjutsu. She trained with Anko multiple times and bested her because Anko the end couldn't get out of her illusions. It showed her she had higher chakra than her.
However thinking about how easy it was for Itachi to get out and also reverse it made her think she had a long way to go.
She sighed. The Sharingan truly was a formidable Doujutsu.
She needed to find a way to make her Genjutsu unbeatable.
"There is nothing in the world that can stop somebody if they set their minds to it" Naruto's voice rang in her head.
She remembered how Naruto trained his gates. She heard from Gai on how he did the impossible and now could do his techniques with his gates.
Naruto has done the impossible.
The impossible…
Her eyes went wide.
"That's it Naruto" she muttered and then decided to see him.
"He should be out the Jounin lounge" she thought
Library
Naruto was within the library as he was looking at the books that contained Konoha's history.
Finding the book that was about how Konoha was created he opened them and read it.
In the time before the creation of the ninja villages, ninjas were organised into small mercenary clans that knew nothing but battle. Of the countless ninja clans, the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan were the strongest. After much bloodshed, the Senju clan offered a truce with the Uchiha who in the end accepted. The Senju, the Uchiha, and the other clans then came together to create Konohagakure. Hashirama Senju, the leader of the Senju, used his wood release abilities to produce much of the villages' infrastructure. For this reason he was selected to be the First Hokage by the villagers.
"Senju…Hashirama" Naruto muttered as he remembered how Tetsuko said that the Senju and Uzumaki were related thus were close. Naruto knew Tsunade was a Senju.
Looking for a book that contained information on the Hokages Naruto for some reason couldn't find information's like their private lives.
He could only find their battle achievement.
"Sarutobi Hiruzen…the professor, Senju Tobirama and Namikaze Minato…the Yellow Flash" Naruto's eyes went wide.
"Namikaze Minato" that was the fourth Hokage. He was the man who sealed the Kyuubi into him.
He remembered what Tetsuko said.
"The Shiki Fūjin is one of the Uzumakies greatest work. It has the ability to call upon, the death god"
Naruto's eyes went wide. If the Shiki Fujin was created by the Uzumaki then the fourth might be an Uzumaki.
"Wait…isn't he a Namikaze" Naruto thought. He soon destroyed that theory.
Then how can he use the Shiki Fujin. Something was going on here.
"There could be one explanation…either the Senju possessed the Shiki fujin or another Uzumaki lived in Konoha who had the Shiki fujin"
Naruto closed his in frustration. Why was he stuck and why were the Hokage's private lives a secret.
Naruto wasn't a fool they were leaders and finding such information within the Jounin Library was foolish.
Nevertheless he needed more information.
Why were Konoha honouring the Uzumaki unconsciously while they had a real Uzumaki walking among them?
It didn't make any sense. Why honour his clan and hate him at the same time.
Naruto sighed. He knew the answer lied on the Kyuubi attack and the reason why he was chosen.
He needed answers but knew the answers were going to be difficult to get.
There might be a possibility he would never find it.
Still it didn't matter to the blond he would get answers. If he didn't then knowing that there was secrets hidden from him would be enough for him to take action.
"Don't think about that yet Naruto…you will get your answers" he said to himself.
Tsunade and Jiraiya he concluded.
They were the key to this puzzle the fact that Tsunade was a Senju made his assumptions clearer. But how can he get it out of them without causing some kind of trouble. He knew it wasn't just them as the whole council maybe knew as well.
Basically the higher ups had all the answers.
Naruto scowled they expected him to sit idle and just listen to orders like a whipped dog while they hid stuff like this to him.
Well they were wrong because Naruto will find out.
He will get answers that he can promise.
Naruto clenched the scroll he had within his vest "Uzumaki…so far I'm on the right track"
Ichiraku Ramen
Ayame looked at Naruto who was looking at his miso ramen in deep thought. He looked conflicted.
The waitress frowned she wondered why he was like that. The fact that he didn't see her when he came saddened her a bit.
"Ayame" Naruto said getting her attention "can we talk" he asked making her a surprised a bit. He looked very serious.
She just nodded.
The two then went to the back of the stand within the allyways.
Silence ensued as Naruto sat on a small case while Ayame stood in front of him.
Silence ensued.
Ayame just looked at Naruto who now spoke "sorry for not seeing you. I was bombarded as soon as I came" she nodded as it was indeed correct due to the amount of Shinobies that were at the gates.
"And the fact that something came up straightaway…"
"It's okay Naruto-kun. You 're here now that's all that matters" Ayame reassured making Naruto nod.
"Anyway what do you want to speak about" she asked
Naruto paused and discreetly analysed the area making the waitress wonder what was going on.
"Ayame…I need to tell you something"
Tension now came as Ayame felt worry rise within her.
"You know I was at mist right" Ayame nodded getting Naruto to carry on "Something happened when I was there"
"Wha…what happened" Ayame stammered as she sweated.
Naruto nodded and just decided to tell her. He then told her how her met Tetsuko and Mei and how Tetsuko was his relative. He then told her how the old lady told him about his clan.
Ayame absorbed everything as she was greatly surprised.
"She said that I have the longevity and vitality of an Uzumaki and was surprised I didn't know." Naruto then became silent as Ayame just froze.
"The…they honour my clan on their vests. The Hokage is related to my clan. So why can't they tell me" Naruto now felt sad as his voice started to break.
He didn't know that Ayame sat next to him as he felt her hand on his. She stroked them slowly and softly.
"Naruto…I" she didn't have any answers and the fact that she didn't scared her. He was her best friend. They told each other everything and for the first time she didn't have any answers, just when he needed her.
She looked at Naruto who had his head down and suddenly put his head on her chest. She hugged him.
Naruto just accepted her embrace.
"Naruto-kun…I may not know what it feels like but I know the feeling of not having a family. My mother's death hurt me and I couldn't stop crying. She was the world to me. But when I met you I slowly started to be happy again. You reminded me the joy of life my mother once gave me."
"Ayame" Naruto spoke softly as he felt her kiss his head.
"Naruto my answer is this. Family is important and if they keep it from you then you shouldn't trust them" Ayame now looked serious. If someone stopped her from knowing more about her family than that means they were against her.
Naruto was someone close to her. He was someone very close and to think this was happening to him hurt her.
"Bu..but Ayame…I" Naruto didn't know what to say.
"Find answers Naruto-kun the fact that you already know about your family is enough" Ayame said getting Naruto to look up at her while she held him.
"What do you mean" Ayame smiled "Naruto…you know about your family right" Naruto nodded.
"You learned from your relative right"
Naruto nodded again.
"Then that's enough" Ayame smiled. Naruto's eyes went wide but then he became sad.
Ayame noticed and asked what was wrong.
"Ayame…the fact that the seal used on me can only be opened by an Uzumaki shows that either my mother or my father were an Uzumaki" Ayame's eyes went wide. She already knew where he was going and before he fell into depression she suddenly hugged him.
"Stop!" she yelled tears now slowly coming out. Her outburst got Naruto to stop right away.
"Don't say anymore Naruto…please" she hugged him tighter "don't say anymore"
"Ayame" he said softly making Ayame carry on "you have me and dad. We can be your family Naruto so just stop okay"
Naruto was surprised at what she said and was touched. He then enveloped her and hugged her back.
"Ayame…thank you" Ayame smiled not caring if she cried.
The two just held each other.
Konoha district
Kurenai sighed as she walked through Konoha. She went to the Jounin to see Naruto only to gfind nobody there. She knew her colleagues were training their team when she suddenly saw team 7 or what was left of them enter Ichiraku Ramen.
"Oh how foolish of me" Kurenai deadpanned as she now knew Naruto was in the ramen stand.
She then went towards it.
Ichiraku Ramen
Naruto was catching up when Team 7 came.
"Hey Naruto" Sakura smiled with Kakashi who nodded. Naruto just nodded back. The moment they came inside Ayame moved away from Naruto and got ready to serve the new customers.
"We didn't get to talk with you ever since you came" Kakashi eye smiled.
"You're right." Naruto smiled as he asked Ayame for a refill who smiled and nodded.
The two now sat down and ordered when Sakura spoke "a lot has changed since you left"
Naruto nodded and looked at Kakashi "yeah what's with the secretary of fire" Kakashi nodded "it is Fuka's title. She was given it when she saved the fire lord"
Naruto nodded "and why is she here" he asked
"I will tell you later Naruto" Kakashi nodded seriously he decided to tell Naruto what Fuka told them.
Naruto nodded as he knew what Kakashi meant.
Sakura noticed what the two talked about and wondered what it was.
"Anyway Sakura here is learning from Tsunade" Kakashi smiled making Sakura blush.
Naruto eyes went wide "Nani!"
Kakashi nodded "she said no at first but Sakura persisted" Sakura nodded "Tsunade-sama told me that if I passed the test she might consider it" Ayame now came and put his ramen on the table.
Naruto nodded his thanks as he could not believe what he was hearing.
It seemed he wasn't the only one training.
"So you passed and then Tsunade considered you" Sakura nodded at her teammate.
"Yes the test was the hard" Naruto now wanted to ask "so what was the test"
"Individual battles" Kakashi answered making Naruto nod. That was simple yet effective.
"So who did you face Sakura" the Haruno nodded as she now thanked her ramen.
"Ino" her answers made Naruto raise his eyebrow "Ino"
Kakashi smiled "yes the two trained hard and showed it when they fought"
Sakura sighed "it ended with a draw but Tsunade-Sama saw potential in me"
Naruto nodded as he smiled "Well done Sakura. You now have a Sanin training you" Sakura looked serious and nodded "I will try my best"
"So Naruto how was mist" Kakashi asked. The Hatake's question made Ayame a bit sad unknowingly to them as she had her back turned.
"Eventful Kakashi, Mizukage-sama showed me around her village." Kakashi nodded and was about to ask more when someone entered.
"I should have known you be here Naruto" Kurenai now came inside the blinds getting everyone's attention.
"Kurenai" Naruto smiled as she smiled back and sat next to him. Seeing Naruto's happy expression made Sakura a bit suspicious.
As even though the mess between the two of them was sorted out there was an air around them which Sakura didn't like for some reason.
"How is your team Kurenai" asked Kakashi
"Since Kiba is a Chunin now he mostly leads the team but like a good teammate he lets Shino be in charge" Kurenai smiled as she was proud of her team.
Kakashi nodded although Kiba was a Chunin he knew Shino was the better leader. It was something Tsunade knew.
He knew the Aburame won't be Genin for long. The one thing he was worried about was Sakura. Although she was Tsunade's apprentice didn't mean she could move up in rank.
"Guess a lot of things do happen in a month" Naruto chuckled he then looked at Kurenai "how was your month"
Kurenai smiled as she was grateful he asked and nodded "it was eventful I gained a lot of insights that I wish to discuss with you about"
Naruto nodded as he knew she meant that she was progressing well in her aim to better her Genjutsu.
"Alright you want to talk now" Naruto smiled getting Kurenai to nod. He then looked at Ayame and smiled "thanks Ayame" Ayame smiled back a bit too bright and nodded "no problem" Naruto smiled and then looked at his team and nodded "I see you lot alright" they just nodded and he and Kurenai left.
"Their awfully together a lot" Sakura wondered out loud
"Maa Sakura their just friends" Kakashi gave an eye smile but inwardly wondered the same. Ayame just shut them out and thought of what happened between Naruto and her.
The two left and once they did decided to follow Naruto and Kurenai
Konoha district
"So you were finding a way to make your Genjutsu stronger but hit a wall" Naruto said making Kurenai nod "yes I just thought you would know how" she was a bit embarrassed asking him for help but still did.
Naruto nodded "alright. Tell me everything you did" Kurenai nodded and told him everything.
"Just like you instructed I increased my chakra reserves. It indeed helped me as Anko had a difficult time getting out of my illusions" Kurenai now started to ponder as she carried a sad expression.
"You still can't find a way to beat the Sharingan" Kurenai nodded when Naruto smiled.
"Alright…how about you and I train" Kurenai looked surprised a bit. She then sighed.
"Naruto I know you want to help but what we are doing is impossible" Naruto still carried that amused expression.
"I know that's why I am going to help you" Kurenai raised her eyebrow "how will you do that"
Naruto smiled even wider "just leave that to me"
Training ground 12
Kurenai and Naruto now stood in the large training ground. Training ground 12 was the largest training ground in Konoha.
"Alright…we are stuck. The fact that you identified the problem is a great start" Kurenai nodded
"For now we won't think about that." Naruto nooded "alright since you're the expert in Genjutsu tell me how it is made"
Kurenai nodded "Genjutsu are techniques that are employed in the same fashion as Ninjutsu, requiring chakra and hand seals. However, the primary difference between the two is that the effects of genjutsu are illusory; instead of attacking the victim's body, like taijutsu or ninjutsu, genjutsu techniques manipulate the flow of chakra in the victim's brain, thus causing a disruption in their senses."
Naruto nodded looking thoughtful "so in a sense Ninjutsu and Taijutsu is physical whereas Genjutsu is spiritual"
Kurenai nodded as she wondered if it was her teaching him rather the other way round.
"Yes in essence Chakra is moulding of the physical energy present in every cell of the body and the spiritual energy gained from exercise and experience."
Naruto nodded "Physical energy and spiritual energy"
What Kurenai was saying made him remember Tetsuko's training
Flashback
Tetsuko and Mei stood in front of Naruto who was in his Gentei.
"Yang release" Naruto said making Tetsuko nodded "yes your Gentei is physical energy to it's pure form."
"But I thought it was chakra" Naruto now turned off his Gentei
"No chakra is the moulding of both Ying and Yang chakra" Tetsuko said the difference.
Naruto just looked confused making Tetsuko sigh.
"In a sense Naruto when you are in your Gentei form your physical energy goes to it's highest level. From what we have seen it allows you to move at the speed of light. Makes you almost untouchable and allows you to fly" Tetsuko was amazed at what Naruto made. Mei also was astounded at the inhuman things he could do.
"Physical Chakra also known as yang chakra is present in every cell of the body. So when your Gentei is turned on those cells within your body like engine goes off to the highest gear possible" Naruto's eyes went wide.
"So…what about the spiritual (ying) chakra" Tetsuko smiled "by gaining the ultimate yang charka which gave you the Gentei form, it overwrites the spiritual chakra" Naruto just looked surprised.
"In other words you Naruto without knowing have achieved Yang release" Tetsuko smiled and Naruto's eye went wide.
End of flashblack
Naruto's eyes went wide as he shook. Kurenai wonder what's wrong when he suddenly chuckled.
"Kurenai…" the Yuhi just looked confused "yes" she didn't even notice him not calling her Sensei.
Suddenly Naruto smiled a bright smile "I found out how to do it"
Kurenai's eyes went wide.
Kurenai blinked "so let me get this straight. You are saying that you already know how to do it" Naruto nodded.
"Yes…I already had the answer when I beat Earthbeast" Kurenai's eyes went wide "you…you mean the technique you were working on. The way to find out how to use your techniques while using your gates" Naruto smiled.
"Yes when I found the way to do it. I thought that I was controlling the excess chakra the gates was bringing out but when I completed it everything changed"
"How" Naruto nodded as he looked serious and carried on "unconsciously I brought forth my physical chakra to the highest level possible which made me do amazing things. Inhuman things"
Kurenai sweated a bit as she knew Naruto was onto something.
"Kurenai…sooner or later you would have found this out as well. You already had the answer"
"An…and what is that" Kurenai asked making Naruto smile "Genjutsu is different than Ninjutsu or Taijutsu." He said what she told him before.
"Think about it, forget about Taijutsu. If Ninjutsu relies on physical chakra then Genjutsu relies on"
"Spiritual chakra" Kurenai gasped Naruto nodded "that's right. So what I was doing was not trying to work on the gates but"
"Separating spiritual and physical chakra" Kurenai put her hands on her mouth. Naruto smiled "that's right. So in a sense I am the best training partner for you. Whereas my Gentei relies on physical chakra we are going to work on spiritual chakra." Naruto chuckled. How such a small world he was in because here was a person who was working on the same thing as him but the exact opposite.
Kurenai couldn't believe what she was hearing. It was completely unheard of. This could very well change the world.
She suddenly felt excitement rise within her. She always dreamed of being the best Genjutsu specialist and here she was at the road of achieving that dream.
And it was all thanks to the man before her. The man who dreamed to become as strong as he could be. She knew he would achieve that dream. No she knew he won't just become strong but the strongest.
She smiled she was glad she met Naruto.
The Uzumaki scrunched his face "however mine is physical as it relies on Taijutsu. Yours will be more hand sign based. It would take a lot of time but nevertheless we got our answer. Now we have to work on it"
"How long do you think it would take" Kurenai asked making Naruto smile "a week?"
The red eyed Jounin was surprised "a week but that's too short"
The blond Uzumaki nodded "yes I agree but you won't master it. Just will be able to use it, it will be up to you to master it" Naruto smiled.
Kurenai now had a serious expression which got Naruto's attention.
"Naruto…your giving me your technique in order to better mine…." She was touched.
"Don't mention it Kurenai you and Anko helped me so I'm just paying you back" he then winked "what happens this week will be our secret. It would be your trump card" Kurenai then smiled and nodded.
"Alright" Naruto now pulled out a storage scroll of his vest and put it on the floor. It wasn't what Tetsuko gave him but his own scroll. The one that held one of his techniques.
He then bit his thumb and then used his blood to open the scroll. The area poofed and out came a small scroll with an ink and brush.
He then opened it. Once he opened the scroll Kurenai saw a drawing of a human's body and saw lines on his arms and legs. The Uzumaki sat down and just analysed the sketch.
"Alright from what I learned the seal here brings out the physical chakra. The basis was the on the pectoralis major" he muttered from what he learned with Tetsuko and Mei. The centre spiral seal was the key. It attracts the chakra within the body like a magnet and then starts converting it. By putting on his pectoralis majors it began to concentrate on bringing forth his physical chakra.
"That's why there were lines on my waists and Achilles heel. It was all to draw out the physical chakra" Naruto thought. To think the centre spiral seal could do that
Kurenai looked thoughtful "Sensei where is Genjutsu drawn from"
"The mind" she quickly answered
Naruto nodded and just looked at the scroll. He then got up "alright…Sensei which is your preferred side"
"Left" she said making Naruto chuckle. He was the same as the seal was on his left pectoralis major.
He then looked serious "Sensei...don't take this the wrong way but…" he then looked scared a bit "can you take off your clothes"
Kurenai's eyes went wide and she blushed. She then narrowed and looked angry "explain" was all she said.
Naruto quickly explained as he took off his shirt showing his bare body making her slightly blush. Seriously he wasn't shy at all.
The Uzumaki then channelled his chakra and then the exact same lines and seal she saw drawn within the scroll was evident.
"You see this is how I can use physical chakra. However yours will be different since Genjutsu is drawn within the mind." he then pointed at the spiral seal on his left chest while his fox tattoo which Kurenai found cute was on his right.
"This seal is the key to separate the two different energies. I will place this on your left neck" he then raised both his arms "and I will draw the lines which are on my arms on yours. The lines encircled on my waist won't be there on you because I will place another small spiral seal on both your palms"
Kurenai looked intrigued "why is that" Naruto nodded and explained "because when I bring out my chakra the seals will appear. For you however the seals will integrate into your system and only the spiral seal that is placed on your neck will appear when you channel your chakra."
Kurenai nodded "so that's the difference between spiritual and physically energies" Naruto nodded.
"So um…please forgive me" Naruto bowed a bit as he looked embarrassed.
Kurenai just sighed "okay Naruto but hurry up. You're lucky we are in this training ground" Naruto nodded and then Kurenai started to undress.
Naruto blushed and looked away.
"This is going to be a long day"he thought
Training ground 12
Kurenai had her back turned as she used her clothes to cover her breasts. She was blushing as Naruto drew the seal on her neck. When he was drawing on her arms and hands he refused to look at her as he blushed slightly. Kurenai feeling his soft warm hands made it difficult for her to concentrate.
"There finished" he sighed in relief and wiped his forehead.
Kurenai nodded and got up and started to dress "turn around Naruto"
"Oh right" Naruto quickly turned around making her smile amused at his innocence.
She then finished and told him she was done.
"Alright what's next" she asked making Naruto nod.
"All you have to do is use the release sign and then release" Naruto said and quickly stopped his teacher before she did it.
"Wait! Sensei when I did it. I felt great pain. Since this is spiritual chakra it might be different" Naruto said. His Gentei really hurt. He was worried Kurenai might be seriously hurt or worse dead.
Kurenai suddenly smiled "I'm willing to take the risk Naruto-kun. After all like you I won't give up" Naruto just nodded as he was afraid. Noticing Kurenai suddenly hugged him.
"I know what happened to you but allow me to do this. Trust me" she smiled making Naruto nod.
She then moved away from him and took a deep breath. She was scared for her life but she needed to do this.
"There is nothing in the world that can stop somebody if they set their minds to it" she muttered to herself and then remembered Naruto's smile. She smiled "take care of me Naruto-kun"
Suddenly Kurenai got onto her release sign and yelled "Kai! (release)" nothing happened when the spiral seal glowed and suddenly Kurenai's world went dark. She fell to the floor limp.
All she heard was Naruto scream her name.
The Uzumaki checked her vitals and gasped.
Her heart stopped beating.
Training ground 12
Kakashi and Sakura were at the training ground only to see faraway Naruto with Kurenai who was on the ground.
Seeing the Uzumaki panicking got them shocked.
"Don't tell me" Sakura gasped in horror as suddenly Kakashi ran towards the two with Sakura soon following.
"Oh my god Kurenai!" he yelled as he held her. The Uzumaki tried everything even CPR but nothing seemed to work.
"Where is Sakura when you need her!" he panicked.
Suddenly he got is answer "Naruto!" Sakura screamed with Kakashi in tow.
"What happened" Kakashi asked when Sakura quickly came and took charge.
She was attempting to heal Kurenai.
"Where am I" Kurenai said as she woke up. Once she opened her eyes she saw herself floating.
Suddenly her eyes went wide. She looked around to see Naruto and his team checking on her.
"But I am here" she said she then screamed Naruto's name but he didn't seem to hear her.
She heard Kakashi questioning him and Naruto ignoring him as he looked scared. She never saw him look like that.
"I'm sorry Kurenai. I should have stopped you" he said to himself she knew he was praying.
"No Naruto –kun it's my fault" she smiled as she looked at her body. She gasped. Her eyes were open and it was looking at her. It was glowing.
The moment their eyes made contact Kurenai's world turn dark again.
"Damn it! Come on!" Sakura screamed she was desperate to save Kurenai's life but still the Jounin was lifeless.
Suddenly Sakura felt a heartbeat and sighed in relief "she's alright" Naruto and Kakashi eyes went wide.
"Really" he said getting the pink haired girl to nod "yes" Kurenai who had her eyes covered by her hair suddenly slowly got up.
"Kurenai!" Naruto yelled as he quickly held her with both hands "you're really alright" he said happily.
"Yes I…" Kurenai looked at Naruto and when their eyes met the Uzumaki suddenly gasped. He suddenly noticed that the world froze. He noticed that Sakura and Kakashi looked to be frozen.
He suddenly felt his head sting and suddenly he heard Kakashi's voice.
"Kai! (release)" he yelled as the Hatake had his Sharingan out. The world around Naruto shattered and the Uzumaki saw Kurenai unconscious and a worried Sakura. Kakashi held Kurenai and he looked to be sweating.
"How can this be…a Genjutsu at this level? It matched the Sharingan" he huffed.
Naruto now knew Kurenai achieved it.
Konoha hospital
"Argh" Kurenai's eyes slowly opened to see Naruto smiling at her.
"What happened" she said as she noticed it was dark outside. That meant that it was late.
Naruto smiled "don't worry the technique turned off" Kurenai just tried to control her headache "Sensei…you did. With just one look you stopped time itself" he smiled
"Wha…what" Kurenai stammered as she looked at the blond who nodded "yeah…Kakashi said that with just one look you matched his sharingan. He had a very hard time beating it"
Kurenai's eyes went wide "really?" Naruto nodded as he looked radiant
"Yes…Kurenai now all you need is to master it. That was only a fraction of your power imagine if you control it"
Kurenai's eyes went wide when Naruto smiled brightly "you did it Kurenai…you finally have the method to beat the Sharingan!"
Suddenly Kurenai moved and soon Naruto felt his lips make contact with something soft.
His eyes went wide. Kurenai kissed him!
Again!
He just closed his eyes and the two just enjoyed the sensation. Soon the Yuhi parted and the cupped both his cheeks.
"No Naruto-Kun…We did it" she smiled softly as she looked ready to be in tears.
Naruto smiled.
Suddenly everyone soon came inside. It was team 8 and Tsunade.
"Kurenai-Sensei!" her students yelled seeing Naruto and her look at them.
Kurenai quickly let go of him when the door opened so nobody knew what happened.
"What happened Kurenai" asked Tsunade making the female Jounin nod "I was training with Naruto and suddenly felt exhausted" her answer was the right one as Tsunade nodded "yes your chakra was so depleted that you almost died" Kurenai's eyes went wide.
"However for some reason you reserves increased even more now. It is like you have made contact we a new energy" the Hokage wondered. Kurenai knew it was the spiritual energy.
"Sensei I hope you're alright" Hinata said as she was worried she looked at Naruto who nodded and got up.
He had his back turned as he smiled at Kurenai. The Yuhi smiled back and nodded at him. She slyly pointed at his lips. Naruto got the hint and his eyes went wide. He quickly wiped his face like he was exhausted by he was really wiping the lipstick on his lips.
Tsunade noticed as she smirked but team 8 looked confused.
"Why were you training with Naruto-kun" asked Hinata as she wondering about Naruto's behaviour just now.
"Naruto, Anko and I usually train together" Kurenai's answer was short and concise just like a professional.
"Alright…It's getting late I see you all tomorrow" they all nodded.
"See you later brat" Tsunade smiled as she knew Naruto was too flustered to notice her sly insult
"Bye Naruto" Kiba and Shino nodded
Hinata smiled and he turned to give Kurenai a final nod.
"Thank you for being here Naruto-kun" Kurenai smiled as she mentally thanked him for helping her achieve her dream. He always helped her become better and kept challenging her.
He truly was a friend and today proved to her that he could also be something more. It was something she now dearly wanted. Uzumaki Naruto earned it.
He smiled and noticed Kurenai now giving him looks that carried longing and just thought nothing of it and left.
The moment he left Hinata noticed Kurenai's eyes were at the door longer than she hoped and knew the Uzumaki got her attention.
"Thank you Naruto-kun" Kurenai smiled. Tsunade saw all this and mentally sighed.
"What a brat" she chuckled. He really was interesting alright.
Naruto's apartment complex
Haruno Sakura was at Naruto's apartment and sighed he wasn't in which meant that he was still in the hospital "he was there with her for the whole day" she wondered how close they were and wanted to talk to him about what happened today.
She walked out the apartment and went past Fuka who was carrying a bag of groceries. She saw the secretary and nodded "hello Ms Secretary" Fuka nodded "good day"
Sakura just smiled as she didn't even ask why she was here in this part of the district.
The two went past and the moment Sakura turned around she gasped. She saw Fuka entering Naruto's apartment complex.
"Why was the secretary going inside Naruto's apartment" she thought as she knew Fuka lived in a fancy hotel.
Not bothering to investigate Sakura quickly left the slums. She needed to speak with someone and fast!
Something was going on here and Sakura needed to find out.
What she didn't know was that Fuka was smirking.
Naruto's apartment
Naruto entered his apartment and sighed. Walking to the kitchen he opened the fridge. Today he had full stock.
"Wow…that wasn't there this morning" he whistled. Quickly bringing out an orange juice Naruto drank it and just went upstairs for bed.
Going inside his dark room Naruto undressed and was no in his boxers.
"I wonder where Fuka went. Didn't see her today at all" he said to himself. For some reason Naruto felt like she was being a bit secretive.
"Maybe it has to do with the prince coming" he thought as Kakashi briefed him when Kurenai was unconscious
Naruto felt tired and sleepy as he was about to go to his bed when he heard a melodious voice.
"Do not fret Naruto-kun I won't be going anywhere" suddenly the lamp was turned on Naruto's eyes went wide.
There in front of his very eyes was Fuka. She laid in the most hottest pose he could think of on his bed and wore a beautiful see through white gown. She looked really hot!
"And are they D cups!" he mentally yelled as he never saw such mature breast like that. The fact that it fitted her and made her more hot didn't help. Not to mention her long lustrous legs and such divine maroon hair and her lips.
"Calm yourself Naruto" he controlled himself but in the end couldn't.
"Fu…Fuka!" Naruto stammered
"I told you baby I will visit" she smiled lustfully. She knew he liked what he was seeing.
Naruto suddenly groaned.
For some reason he remembered that dream he had when he was going to mist.
"What kind of foolishness" he muttered making Fuka giggle.
"There is nothing foolish here darling. Just you and me" she then patted the extra space on the bed.
"Now Naruto-kun…I won't bite…" she said as her eyes glowed beautiful blue. The gorgeous woman then smiled dangerously like she was looking at her prey as she finished with a husky voice "yet!"
Uzumaki Naruto shivered and comically cried.
"Damn you Kami….damn you Kisara" he mentally screamed he didn't know why he cursed Kyuubi but she was the one who started this whole nonsense.
What Naruto didn't know was that he was to blame as he kept attracting these hot women without even knowing.
"Naruto-Kun its late…lets break" the Uzumaki's eyes went wide at what she was about to say. Fuka then quickly rephrased "let's go to bed"
Naruto just wanted this day to be over as he knew if he slept at his couch he would wake up in his bed with her or Fuka with him on the couch. Seriously either way he was done for!
He just sighed and just joined her. He felt Fuka touch his her his back while he had his back to her.
"Goodnight Naruto-Kun" she whispered in his ear making the blond want to moan. He controlled himself and asked her something.
"Fuka"
"Yes Naruto-kun"
"Are you alright" the Uzumaki just asked. He didn't know why he asked but just did. Behind him Fuka looked serious "why you ask" she said
"No reason it's just that you were so reserved and I just want to know why" he suddenly felt Fuka sooth his back with her hand. Her soft hand on his skin made him blush.
"Are you worried about me" she smiled. She looked very happy as she carried on with her ministrations.
Naruto feeling really good quickly answered "No!" he then moved away from her "goodnight Fuka!" he suddenly started to sleep.
Behind him Fuka smiled the fact that he was worried for her well being showed her how much he cared.
"Goodnight my Fishcake" she smiled
"My mother named me Naruto. Use it!" Naruto yelled as he only got a soft laugher as an answer.
"Well to me you are fishcake" Naruto's eyes twitched "you never letting that go aren't you"
"Nope…I can never go back" she smiled
"Argh!" Naruto grunted and just shut his eyes.
Fuka giggled as she also closed her eyes as well. Seriously this man was fun, caring, selfless you name it. Soon she might really fall in love with him.
Her eyes went wide open when she thought that.
"Wait…what!" she thought as she suddenly blushed as she heard Naruto's voice insider her mind.
"Once you taste this fishcake...you never go back"
Fuka closed her eyes and desperately tried to erase those thoughts.
Could she really…fall in love with Uzumaki Naruto.
"Damn it" she muttered as she looked at Naruto who slept peacefully. She too then slept.
What she didn't know was that Naruto was awake and heard her turmoil. He wondered what was wrong her.
Okay guys end chapter!
