NaruHina: Chapter 54: Mission to the Flame Temple

A few days had passed since the attempted to kidnapped Hinata, Kira, and Naruko by some Cloud shinobis to get the Hyuga's Byakugan. Minato and Naruto were in the indoor training dojo in the Namikaze compound. "Why are we in here dad," Naruto asked and Minato answered, "I wanted to teach you a fighting technique that I created. I figure it might come in handy one day if you needed it." "What type of fighting technique is it," Naruto asked and Minato replied, "I call is the Strong Fist technique. It combines both the Hyuga's Gentle Fist techniques and Taijutsu that both Guy and Lee use. Are you ready to learn it?" "Yes I am dad," Naruto answered and Minato begun to show Naruto the Strong Fist Technique. It took a few weeks for Naruto to learn all the techniques for the Strong Fist. After Naruto finished learning the Strong Fist from Minato, Kushina decide to teach Naruto a few things from the Uzumaki clan. "Before we begin training, there is something that you need to know about the Uzumaki clan," Kushina said and Naruto asked, "What is it?" "You see the Uzumaki clan actually has a Kekkei Genkai," Kushina answered and Naruto replied with shocked, "What is it and do I have it?" "Yes you do have it, since you Uzumaki blood in you. The Uzumaki's Kekkei Genkai is known as Celestial Chains. There are three main types of Kekkei Genkais. The first types are the Kekkei Genkais in the eyes like the Sharingan from the Uchiha clan, the Byakugan from the Hyuga clan, and the Renkin from the Eagle clan. Those are ocular type jutsu that enhances that user's eyesight," Kushina explaining and Naruto is listening to her. "The second type of Kekkei Genkais is elemental manipulation. An example of that would be how Yamato is able to use wood," Kushina said and then Naruto said, "When I went to Land of Waves, I fought against a shinobi that could ice techniques. Would that be considered an elemental manipulation?" "Yes that would be one. The last type is known as body manipulation. This type of Kekkei Genkai allows a person to enhances or manipulate they body in one way or another. There are some in the Stone country that can turn their skin into rock as their armor. I think I remember hearing that the Lightning country has a clan that can transform into dragon-like creatures," Kushina said and Naruto said, "I can across a guy that was able to a sword that was made out of bone from his body and was also able to use any bones to create any weapon." "That was probably a member of the Kaguya clan that uses to live in the Water country," Kushina said and Naruto asked, "What type of Kekkei Genkai does Celestial Chains belongs too?" "Neither of them, the Celestial Chains is a unique Kekkei Genkai. This was one of the reasons that the Lightning country tried to kidnap me when I was younger," Kushina answered and Naruto replied, "If the Celestial Chains does not belongs to any of those type of Kekkei Genkai, then what is it?" "The Celestial Chains is a chakra type, but it is not an elemental manipulation. The chakra of the Uzumaki clan is very special. We can transform our chakra into chains and we can use them to attack our enemies at a certain long distance and also to protect us from the attacks from our enemies. You can use the Celestial Chains how ever you like. The Uzumaki's clan chakra is also more potent then everyone else's chakra. This gives the Uzumaki unique abilities. Our Kekkei Genkai makes our bodies stronger and more resilient then others. It gives us large chakra reserves and a major increase of our stamina when we train. Since you have the Kyuubi sealed in you, both the Kyuubi's power and the Uzumaki's Kekkei Genkai has double your chakra reserves and stamina," Kushina explained and Naruto was surprised by what Kushina told him. "I will show you how to use the Celestial Chains and teach you some other things from the Uzumaki clan," Kushina said and Naruto nodded his head.

It took a few weeks for Naruto's training with Kushina to be finished. Kushina taught Naruto how to use the Celestial Chains, some special Water jutsu that Uzumaki clan has, and some sword techniques that the Uzumaki clan created in the past. Naruto was thankful that both Minato and Kushina had taught him. Naruto made sure to spend time with Hinata and his kids. One day Naruto took Hinata and the kids to the photographer to get a picture of all four of them. Naruto was holding Kira in his right arm. Hinata was on Naruto's left with Naruko in her arms. Naruto took his left arm and placed it around Hinata's back with his left hand on Hinata's left shoulder. Naruto was wearing black pants with one orange line going down on each side of his pants. Naruto's shirt was a black t-shirt with the first Hokage's and the raven engrave necklace showing, and he was wearing a black jacket that was unzipped with one orange strip going around him. Naruto made sure to wear the trench coat that Mizuho made him. Hinata was wearing some dark blue pants. Hinata's shirt was dark purple t-shirt with her fox engrave necklace showing and she was also wearing her trench coat that Mizuho made her. Naruto and Hinata had their shinobi headbands on their foreheads. Kira was wearing some dark blue shorts and a blue t-shirt with the Namikaze clan crest on the back. Hinata made this t-shirt for Kira. Kira was also wearing some goggles that Naruto was wearing before he got his headband. Naruko was wearing blue pants that were a little bit lighter color and a purple t-shirt that had the Namikaze clan crest on the back. Hinata also make this shirt as well. The four of them looked at the camera and smiled. Naruto and Hinata made sure to have extra pictures to give to Hinata's and Naruto's parents. Naruto made sure to place one of the pictures in his tool bag. Hinata put two pictures in two picture fames. One of the fames was in the living room and the other was on a night stand in Naruto's and Hinata's room. One afternoon, Naruto and Hinata were sitting on the couch and watching Kira and Naruko play in front of them. Naruto and Hinata were surprised that Kira was being a big brother to Naruko.

One day Lady Tsunade called Mike, Sasuke, Sakura, Hinata, and Naruto to her office. "I received a letter from the flame temple. It seems that someone had taken two coffins that were hidden. Your mission is to go to the flame temple and look for who took the coffins and why. All of you leave in an hour," Lady Tsunade said and everyone nodded. The five of them returned to their homes to get their gear. Sasuke and Sakura brought Sasuko and Senji over to the Namikaze compound for Minato and Kushina to watch them with Kira and Naruko. Naruto, Hinata, Sasuke, Sakura, and Mike met up at the gates and headed towards the flame temple. It was getting dark as they traveled to the flame temple. "The four of you wait her and I will go see how much farer it is to the temple," Mike said and everyone nodded they heads. Mike headed off and everyone sat down to take a rest. Naruto got up was walking into the forest and Hinata asked, "Where are you going Naruto?" "Nature is calling," Naruto answered and Hinata nodded her head. A few minutes passed and Naruto was finished with his business. Naruto started to walk back and then something caught his eye. Naruto walk to it and found that it was a passageway. Naruto entered the passageway and found that it lead to a big empty room. 'I wonder what this place is for,' Naruto thought and then he felt someone was behind him. Naruto turned around to see a guy coming at him with triple blade claw in his left hand. Naruto grabbed a kunai and begun to defend himself. Naruto and his attacker were able to get back to the forest. Naruto noticed that his attacker was focusing his chakra into his triple blade claw. Naruto dodge his attack and saw the attacker slice the tree with ease. 'He must be able to use wind chakra,' Naruto thought and the attacker asked, "Where did you take the coffin you grave robber?" "I think you might be confused," Naruto replied and the attacker said, "Don't play dumb with me you were in the tomb and the coffin was gone." Naruto and the attacker were at it again. "That enough Sora," said someone and both Naruto and Sora stopped fighting. "I am fighting the person that stole the coffin, Chiriku," Sora said as he looked at a guy that was bald with thick eyebrows and he was wearing what looked like a monk uniform. "He happens to be from Konoha to help us," Chiriku said and Sora picked up his claw with an angry look. Naruto explained why he was in the tome. "It seems that a third coffin is taken," said a monk that was talking to Chiriku. They were soon joined by Mike and the others. "We will head to the temple to think of a plan," Chiriku said and they all headed back. Naruto was able to get a good look at Sora because of the torches. Naruto saw that he had blue dull gray hair, brown eyes, bandaged right arm, and he wore similar clothes that Chiriku was wearing.

It did not take long for them to reach the temple. When they arrival at the gate, Naruto and the others noticed the two scary statue on each side of the gate. As soon as they walk threw the gates, they notices a lot of monks that looked alike. After a while, the monks began their training by fight against each other. Naruto notice that Sora was not fight any of them. Naruto walked up and asked, "You want to go a round." Sora looks at him with an angry look. Naruto removes his weapons and get into a fighting position. Sora gets into a fighting position as well. Naruto and Sora charged at each other. Hinata, Sasuke, Sakura, and Mike were watching Naruto fight against Sora. Soon all the monk around started to watch as well. As they fought, Naruto noticed the hateful looks that the monks were giving Sora. Naruto said that was enough. Naruto walked over to where his weapons were and asked Hinata, Sasuke, Sakura, and Mike, "Did you all happened to noticed the looks that the monks were giving Sora?" They nodded and Naruto said, "Those looks were the same ones that the people in Konoha were giving me when I was growing up." Hinata saw the look in Naruto eyes and gave him a hug. Then a monk comes running in and yells, "Someone has taken the fourth coffin and is heading west." Naruto, Hinata, Sasuke, Sakura, Mike, Chiriku, and Sora headed west as fast as they could. A few minutes had passed and then they saw a coffin moving on it own in a direction. The team saw three more coffins heading into each other. The team ran into the field and tried to grab on of the coffins, but then all four coffins suddenly goes into the ground. Mike looks around and says, "I have a bad feeling about this."
