The Next Day Shenlo POV
I awoke to the sound of my alarm clock ringing. Shutting it off and getting up I took a look at the time. Five O'clock in the morning.
"Perfect timing." I thought.
Getting a quick shower I got dressed, in my standard outfit of a black bodysuit, with my half mask, with a black form-fitting shirt, tapered pants, and open-toed sandals.
Walking out to the main room
I left a note on the front door for Naruto reading:
Naruto,
I left early today to talk with the Hokage about a few things. There is food in the fridge. After your team training and mission, meet me at Training ground 47.
Shenlo
I walked out the front door motivated to complete some tasks. I donned the hannya mask. The first is to speak with the landlord, of the apartment building.
A few moments after climbing down the stairs, I found the office to the apartment building. I entered in and waited a few moments. Hearing some shuffling steps coming from behind the desk area, I walked closer.
A short man, with shaggy brown hair, and a half tuxedo on emerged from the back room.
He spoke, with a surprisingly high voice, "What can I help you with?"
"Hi, I was wondering if, at all possible, I could purchase the property. I have enough money to do so, and enough money to fix any and all repairs needed. Would you be interested?" I asked in a professional voice.
The short man coughed for a few moments. "Are, are you sure? You really want to purchase this whole complex?" He asked.
"Yes sir. I plan to add a few floors and some other things." I spoke.
"Why sure you can," he spoke. He disappeared behind the counter for a few moments. A minute later he came back out with a few papers.
"Okay, I need you to sign next to the x on the first page. On the second, I need you to give your banking information, so I can take this to the bank and transfer the transaction. Finally, on the third page, sign next to the x to show that the complex is under your ownership. Thank you for your business." He spoke, obviously excited.
I signed the papers and provided the necessary information for the transaction.
The short man walked out of the building and left down the road into town. I looked at the time, the clock read five forty-five, and headed to the Hokage's tower, to talk about a few topics.
Hokage's Office Hiruzen POV
I was sitting at my desk, angrily doing my paperwork silently cursing Minato for having been killed in the attack twelve years ago. I heard a knock on my office door.
"That's odd. I don't have any scheduled meetings at this time, so who could it be." I thought.
Much to my surprise, Shenlo walked in.
"Lord Third. I hope I'm not bothering you." He spoke.
"No. Not at all. What can I help you with." I asked.
"I needed to talk with you about a few things is all."
"Okay, pull up a chair, and let's talk," I said.
Shenlo pulled up a chair and began to speak.
"The first few topics regard Naruto in some form or another. The first, after the mob incident yesterday, I took him with me to my home. Where we made contact with the Nine tails. I found out some interesting information that is supposed to be kept secret, and some previously unknown to everyone but a few. The first, the nine tails was being controlled during the attack." Shenlo spoke.
"What do you mean controlled?" I asked.
"A masked man, with a Sharingan eye put the nine tails under his control." He continued.
"I see. Continue." I commanded.
"Secondly, Naruto now knows the whole truth of why the village hates him. Being a jinchuriki, all of it. I understand that you lied to him to protect him from the hate, but it didn't work. Thirdly, I talked with the nine tails and got it to agree to two things. First, to stop interfering with Naruto's chakra, and chakra control. Second, to give Naruto a body-based bloodline based around providing extra defense to his body, through increased bone density, thickness, and strength. It also affects his muscles resulting in greater strength and quicker adaptation. For example, his ribcage, soon won't be able to be pierced with an average strike with a sword or kunai. His ribcage is plated. Made up of bone plates overlapping each other, each is about the size of a small tea plate." Shenlo spoke, with small amounts of pride.
"Good, keep watching out for the boy," I spoke.
"Naruto knows who his parents are as well. The fox told him." Shenlo said.
I froze. I coughed for a second. "Oh shit," I spoke. "Well, we'll get to that when we get to that. What else did you need Shenlo?" I asked.
"Yes sir. I've purchased the entirety of the apartment complex that I live in, and I am planning in developing it into a business of sorts. I need to buy the plots of land surrounding it as well."
"Of course. Is that all?" I asked.
"Yes sir, that is all." He responded.
"Very well. You may go now, I'll have it taken care of for you.
With that said, I watched as Shenlo walked out of my office.
Shenlo POV
I walked out of the Hokages office. I looked at the time posted on the clock in the hallway.
"Only six-thirty." I thought.
Bored I shunsinned to training ground 44, where I arrived to find my two sensei's sitting on a log.
"Good morning Sensei's. How are you this morning?" I asked, breaking the silence.
Yamato-sensei and Yugao-sensei looked up suddenly in surprise.
"We, we are doing fine Shenlo. Sit down over here and wait for your teammates." Yugao-sensei spoke.
Deciding to work on chakra control, I channeled my chakra to my legs. I began to expel a constant stream of powerful chakra. I began to lift off the ground, hovering about a foot above the ground.
Yamato and Yugao looked at me in surprise. However, they just decided to ignore the fact that I was now hovering.
Thirty minutes later
Raorin and Yakumo were now at the training ground. Raorin dressed in a red and blue shirt, black pants, and the average shinobi sandals. Yakumo is dressed in a red kunoichi battle dress.
Standing up with Yamato-sensei and Yugao-sensei, we moved into the forest.
Moving into the forest, we walked for about ten minutes into a small clearing. In that clearing was a small training center.
Yamato spoke, "Okay, first up we are going to be doing chakra control, and elemental chakra control." Yamato pulled out three pieces of paper.
"Sensei, how is the paper going to help us with chakra control?" Yakumo asked.
"Well, this is chakra paper. Made from trees that were fed chakra from the sapling stage all the way to the making stage of the paper. Channel a small amount into the paper, and it will do one of five transformations representing the chakra elements. There are more than five but beyond the basic five are bloodlines. For fire, the paper will get wet. For water, it will get damp, then wet. Earth will crumble to dust. Lightning will shrink to a small ball. Finally, for wind, it will cut the paper. So, Yakumo you will go first." Yamato spoke.
Yakumo walked forward and grabbed the paper. She focused for a minute before it cut into halves and then the halves got wet.
"Good, not many have more than one chakra nature as a genin. Let alone two. Some might have three if they come from a clan with a kekkai tota. But after that, it's a bit hard to track. You have a primary of wind and a secondary of water." He spoke.
Raorin was next. He walked forward and grabbed the paper, focusing hard. A moment later, it burst into flames and shrunk slightly.
"Good job Raorin. Fire and Lightning. We might be able to help you orient yourself as a frontline fighter." Yugao spoke.
Finally, it was my turn. I walked forward, and lightly held the paper. What happened next surprised me and everyone else.
It is split into four equally sized triangles. The first shrunk, the next crumbled, the third got wet, the fourth lit a flame. But what surprised me, was above the paper were two forms. The first was a rose, symbolizing my affinity to nature. But the second one was in the shape of a small ball of metal.
Yamato and Yugao were surprised. Raorin and Yakumo looked jealous.
Yamato finally found his voice. "Shenlo, you should be proud, it is practically impossible for someone to have all five let alone two bloodlines. Your bloodlines are Nature and Metal release."
"No way that is so cool!" Raorin yelled.
We continued on to talk about the types of chakra control and the different levels. We then practiced chakra control. Yakumo and Raorin doing tree climbing, and I was hovering above the ground.
Afterward, we did a few basic team-building exercises.
A few hours later. I was walking toward Training ground forty-seven to train Naruto.
I finally arrived at the training ground and began thinking of a training regiment for Naruto.
A half-hour later Naruto walked up to me, obviously ready to begin working.
"Okay, Naruto. I'm going to be giving you a physical training regiment for you to complete two times every day. Once before your team training, the second during this time. Okay, it will consist, of a six-mile run, two hundred pushups, one hundred ninety-degree pushups(if you don't know what it is, look it up, it is a part of calisthenics), two hundred crunches, one hundred jack knives, two hundred squats, and one hundred squats. As you get better and better, I will be adding weight and resistance seals. Okay, complete the regiment now." I commanded.
Naruto immediately went off to complete his exercises.
Two hours later, and he had finished the exercises.
"Okay, next we are going to go over Taijutsu, and Chakra control. We will only get to Ninjutsu and Genjutsu when I think your chakra control is up to par. First, I need to teach you the kage bunshin. With this, you can train faster. Whatever the clones experience you will as well once the clone has been dispelled. Be careful as this technique takes a large amount of chakra, and you can fry your brain from information overload." I told him.
I proceeded to teach Naruto the technique. Another thirty minutes and he had the technique mastered. I then had Naruto make four hundred clones. Two hundred for chakra control, and the other for Taijutsu. I also made four hundred clones to give every one of his clones a guide to making sure he didn't learn things incorrectly.
After what seemed like hours we stopped. I had him dispel his clones ten at a time every.
While we waited I spoke, "Naruto once your clones are done dispelling I want you to spar with me using the corrected form of taijutsu. Do not add anything that I haven't taught you or corrected for you." I spoke.
Naruto nodded and stood up to stretch.
An hour later, we began to spar.
I stood opposite Naruto in a defensive stance. Naruto stood in a basic stance, his hands in front of himself, his left leg to the side, and his right slightly bent. I initiated combat, by running forward. I feinted with a left hook and lined up a driveline punch with my right. Naruto didn't see the faint and got hit with the second punch.
Naruto skidded a few feet back. He stood up, he got back into position, I could tell he was trying to bait me. Deciding to humor Naruto I ran toward him, I went for a low kick. He jumped above the kick and aimed a punch toward me as I stood.
Thinking quickly I caught his fist, and aimed a kick at his side. Naruto responded with a block with his right leg by lifting his leg. Pushing Naruto back with my left arm, I jumped back to analyze what to do. I flipped over to Naruto as he stumbled, I jumped up into the air and aimed another kick at him. Naruto blocked once again.
Motioning for Naruto to stop, I spoke, "Okay, we will continue on Taijutsu and Chakra control tomorrow. For now, I want you to go back to my place, you will be staying with me from now on. I need to do a few things. I will see you later." I then walked away to go speak with some builders.
Konoha Civilian District
I walked through the streets of Konoha, looking for a contractor building. I noticed that despite the villagers giving me slight looks of fear, some were ogling me with their lustful eyes.
Behind my mask, I sneered in disgust. After a few more minutes I had found the building I was looking for. I entered in the building. A large man appeared behind the counter.
Initiating conversation, I spoke with a firm professional voice. "Hello, I would like to employ your services. I can pay you a handsome sum of money for your best quality. Would it be possible to draw the plans for you? If you like the project I will hire you. If not, I can figure something else out."
"Sure, come with me." The man replied, walking out from behind the counter, giving me a better look at the man the size of a large bear. He looked like a lumberjack(4th wallbreak?).
"Wait what's a lumberjack?" I thought.
I walked with the man to another room. He interrupted my thoughts with his voice, "This is the drawing room. Draw up your plans for your property."
"Thank you…, sorry I didn't catch your name," I spoke.
"Sagomuri. Nice to meet you…"He trailed off.
"Shenlo. My name is Shenlo, Sagomuri-san." I said.
"Ah, thank you Shenlo-san, it's nice to meet you." He spoke.
He walked out of the room, leaving me to draw up my plans.
I immediately began to draw all of my ideas. I added on nine more floors to the apartment building allowing the top two to be a penthouse. I made the building itself much larger in its width and length, allowing for apartments to be bigger. On the surrounding plots of land, I added two private and public bathhouses. A large pool, multiple candy shops, a small casino, and two restaurants. Adding a little bit of spice, I added a bar and a liquor store.
Proud of my plans, I walked out to the main area and presented the documents to Sagomuri-san.
"Ah, here you go Sagomuri-san, my finished plans," I spoke while giving the plans to the man.
He studied them for a moment before his eyes widened and he looked up at me.
"Are you sure Shenlo-san? This will be a lot of money. This is a very large project, it will be enough work to keep most of Konoha busy for months." The man asked with uncertainty to his voice.
"Yes Sagomuri-san, I am quite sure. I will employ half of Konoha if need be. This is my final product, do what you must, Sagomuri-san. Now, I must be getting home. Keep in touch." I spoke while walking toward the door. I walked back through the streets of Konoha toward my apartment complex.
Apartment Complex
I walked up to my apartment, opened the door, and walked in. I turned around and proceeded to the kitchen. I made myself more sushi and then went to my room. I gave myself a shower and cleaned myself off. After eating the sushi, I dressed into my red tank top outfit from yesterday. I walked over to Naruto's room and cracked the door open. I looked in and saw him sleeping peacefully. He looked cute, almost pretty. I opened the door a little bit more debating on whether or not to go to his bed.
"NO! You will not think like this Shenlo, go back to your own room!" I thought.
Deciding to get some sleep I went back to my on room..
