"Gotta say Koneko... I never had this problem with your mother or sister."
Koneko's clothes were like paper compared to the clothes her family members wore. He could train Fujimai and Kuroka for hours at a time and their clothes would suffer very little damage. Yet if he trained with Koneko for 5 to 15 minutes she would be down to her underwear by the end of it. He didn't notice when they were training over the boiling lake, but he noticed when she went through 6 outfits over the course of the next 6 days they were training.
"Your clothes, I'm talking about your clothes." Naruto stated as he stood on a single finger.
He was doing a handstand on a single finger.
Naruto was teaching Koneko how to control her chakra in reverse, from hardest to easiest in order to test the way that she learned. It would seem he made the correct choice with her training. She learned how to walk on water and control pulsating chakra within 2 days, while also learning hand to hand combat on top of the water. He taught her, though this took 5 days, how to stick to surfaces by beating the shit out of her while she tried to run up the side of a cliff he made for her.
Koneko learned better when she wasn't focused on what she was doing.
She was afraid of using chakra, so he had to take her mind off of the fact that she was using chakra.
"Pervy Master."
"... You have no idea the pain I'm going to inflict on you for that." Naruto told her with a deadpan look. "Anyway, get sturdier clothes to train in from now on. Unless I tell you to be naked for training, I expect you to be wearing clothes by the end of it." Naruto stated, though her mostly being naked did help her with this particular training.
She was to stand on one finger.
She was to do one fingered push ups.
She was to hold a leaf to her forehead using nothing but her chakra.
She was to switch fingers every 5 minutes.
She was to count backwards from 500, and then count back up to 250, and then back down from 500.
She was also being made to do the splits with her legs while balancing two buckets of water with her feet.
Koneko was doing all of this while balancing on top of a spike sticking out of the ground, and she wasn't allowed to use her wings if she fell. If she fell, she needed to fall 300 feet and hit the ground. She would be forced to refill the water buckets, and then climb back up to the top of the spike until she could set herself back up again.
"... I'm sorry Master."
"It's fine brat... god, I'm becoming my Master." Naruto grumbled to himself, though he did like Koneko's progression with her training.
The leaf hadn't left her head for the last 20 minutes.
'487... 486... Master is a fucking sadist... 485... 484... but I've already grown so much stronger in only 8 days of training. My chakra is like 25% stronger than when I started, and my hand to hand combat ability has improved. 483... 482...' Koneko counted down from 500 again while she was thinking about her training so far.
Hell.
Learning how to walk on water, on top of a boiling lake, while getting the ass kicking off her life had been an utter nightmare that she had never thought she would forget. When she went to take a hot bath, looking at the steaming water had actually caused her to flinch in fear for a moment before she calmed herself down.
Learning how to walk up walls, while running up what amounted to a mountain, while getting an even WORSE ass kicking than during the lake training, had been more painful than she had expected it to be. She didn't even need the boiling lake to add to her pain for this training, falling off a mountain and breaking half of the bones in her body and passing out over and over again was unpleasant enough.
This training sucked.
She needed to focus chakra to the tip of her finger AND her forehead to stick the leaf to it, while having so many other things to keep her focus on. It was an utterly impossible training, but she watched as Naruto did the training with her to show just how possible it was.
"Nekoshou all have a natural Fire Affinity, with your natural technique being the Kasha. Kuroka uses her black flames, and your mother had white flames. A Nekoshou's flames always match their hair color. Of course, your older sister is a genius who gained her second tail even before she came to my island." Naruto stated, and he compared Kuroka to Koneko as he looked at the single tail that came out of the base of her spine.
Koneko was not allowed to hide her cat features during her training.
Koneko grit her teeth a little.
'461... so I'm not a genius like my sister.'
"Of course, you've got all your sister's genius, and all of your mother's failure in you. You've got even more natural talent than your sister has, but you've still got the determination of a failure. If you keep going like this, you might just become the first student to become my apprentice." Naruto told her as he watched her eyes widen a little.
A gentle encouragement, a statement that she was better than her sister in some areas. She was visibly shocked by his statement, with her head jerking to look towards him.
The leaf stayed on her forehead.
"You-"
"Okay, you've mastered this lesson Koneko." Naruto flicked his finger and broke the tip of the spike, and he fell towards the ground and landed on his feet. That was his signal for Koneko to do the same, and she destroyed only the tip of the pillar with her chakra. Naruto landed neatly on the ground, while Koneko landed more cat-like.
She landed on all fours, before she stood up.
"What did you say?" Koneko asked him again.
Naruto ignored her and sat down.
...
Koneko sat down in front of Naruto.
"In 8 days, you have mastered the 3 most basics forms of chakra control. Something that took your mother 10 years to do. Of course, by this point your mother's chakra reserves were far higher and more refined than your own... refined chakra takes time and effort to gain. 20 days won't give you that, but your chakra has improved greatly and your reserves have seen a small increase as well correct?" Naruto asked Koneko about her chakra. While she was currently running low from their training, she nodded her head anyway.
Instead of getting two or three times stronger, her chakra had seen a small but noticable increase in power.
"... Only like... 25% though." Koneko grumbled, since she went through hell for such a small increase now that she actually put a real number to it. Her chakra was around a fourth stronger than it had been previously.
That wasn't much.
Naruto smiled.
"Yes, 25% isn't all that much more chakra overall considering what you started with. Yet, with how much control you've gotten, with every use of your chakra you will waste very little of it." Naruto explained the basis of why increasing her control was far more important than her reserves of chakra.
Naruto took a deep breath.
Naruto increased the density of his chakra around him, to the point the ground was shaking and his chakra was visible around him. He didn't enter any transformation, he just kneeded chakra in his body to the point it was visible outside of him. Something he had been able to do even as a child when he prepared to unleash his larger jutsu.
He looked at her.
"I..."
"Do it, now." Naruto didn't give her the chance to chicken out. His words were harsh, but the kind tone he spoke them with got a small gasp from her for a moment.
He believed in her.
"Okay..." Koneko took several deep breaths, before she gathered the energy around her and started to take it into herself. She manipulated the chakra inside her body and accepted the chakra. "... I feel..."
"Use your chakra to manipulate your Physical and Spiritual energies. Chakra is the bond that connects these two energies together. Using chakra, you can manipulate the ki inside of your body to attack or defend." Naruto gave her a gentle lecture.
Ninjutsu.
When a ninja used their chakra to manipulate their Ki and Spirit energies together to form techniques. While the ways they used chakra was very different, at heart, he and Koneko both had all three energies inside of them. They both had Chakra, Ki, and Spirit Energy.
Koneko's chakra was lightly visible around her body.
"I... barely feel any..." Koneko whispered.
She wasn't going out of control?
"You're using your chakra correctly, thanks to the control these past 8 days have given you, you're using Senjutsu to take just enough energy from your surroundings to balance with what is inside of you." Naruto explained why she wasn't feeling a lot of hate in her chakra. Koneko looked down at her hands and gripped them into fists, before she released them.
Naruto took her hands gently.
Time for a real lesson.
"You're more attune to Yang, your chakra is very white so it's natural. Funny, because your sister is attuned to Yin far more." Naruto stated as he looked at her hands and the chakra around her. He was paying attention to everything about her chakra, and Koneko's eyes widened a lot.
She wasn't like her sister?
"What... is the difference?"
"Yang is uses physical energy, Yang Release uses Chakra and Ki to form techniques with very little Spiritual energy. It's the Light Style, using physical energy to control vitality and grant life." Naruto stated.
He powered up gently.
Koneko watched as his body changed into a golden and black form, and her eyes widened when she saw the trees around them that were dead started to go into bloom. Naruto smiled as he watched his Nine-Tails Mode (not his Six Paths Sage Mode) give off so much life energy that it revitalized the forest around them.
"Ki... you're using ki."
"Yes, in this form my Chakra is amplifying my Ki, or Yang energies and allowing my vitality to shine. Those who are more alligned to Yang are more attuned to the physical uses for chakra and physical techniques." Naruto explained as he powered down back to his base form. The trees stopped blooming, but the flowers had already formed.
Naruto took Koneko's right hand, and he bit his finger until it bled.
"Master?" Koneko didn't know what to say, but she questioned him when he wrote on her right palm with his blood.
"Ninshu is the art of using your chakra to connect your ki and spiritual energies to that of other people. Chakra is an energy used to bring people together, though people use it to connect their Yang..." Naruto moved Koneko's hand and he started to write on her left palm. "... and Yin together to form ninjutsu... in your case it is called Youjutsu." Naruto explained to her as he finished.
Yang
Yin
"So Yang is good... and Yin is evil?" Koneko asked, and her eyes widened when Naruto shook his head.
"Physical energy and Chakra form Yang Release, while Spiritual Energy and Chakra form Yin Release. Yin might be referred to as Dark style, but it is in no way evil. You can tell if a person is more attuned to Ki or Spiritual energy by the color of their chakra." Naruto explained to Koneko, and she nodded her head a little.
So that wasn't why Kuroka became a killer.
"Your Sister, Kuroka, is more attuned to the Yin side of chakra manipulation. Every time you use chakra, you use both Physical and Spiritual energies, but the balance isn't always even. Since you're more attuned to Yang, you'll have an easier time using techniques that require your ki... physical enhancement." Naruto explained to her, and she nodded with more energy than before.
Using Senjutsu was restoring her stamina slowly but surely.
"The anger and hate is still there." Koneko told him, because she could still feel it.
"You're in control of your chakra though, only pull the energy you need to use Senjutsu. Right now, you've learned how to properly use Senjutsu by controlling your chakra properly. So long as you never take in more chakra than what you need to use Senjutsu, you will never be overwhelmed by the hatred... but if you continue your training, then you can remove the hatred completely." Naruto informed her.
She looked at the yellow chakra that was around his body, and she looked at her own white chakra. She frowned slightly when she realized that they weren't the same color, and she didn't know which side Naruto was more attuned to.
'... Yellow... it's very bright... and light... and warm.' Koneko tried to analyze his chakra, but she didn't know if that meant he was more attuned to Yang or Yin. He had been her mother and Kuroka's master, so he had to know how to use both Yang and Yin in tandem. His chakra was so very filled with ki, but at the same time his had an immense spiritual power in his chakra as well.
Naruto stopped making his chakra visible.
Koneko did the same.
"You've now learned to control Senjutsu to the point that you don't need to worry about going insane... as long as you don't lose control. Always maintain a firm hold over how much chakra you are controlling." Naruto stated to her as he extended his fist to her.
She blinked.
She bumped his fist.
"... I've mastered Senjutsu... just like that?" Koneko entered his Senjutsu state again, and she reached down into herself and grabbed the ki from inside of her body. Pulling it out to the surface with her chakra, she felt her body grow even stronger than it already was. A small white aura appeared around herself when she did it, just like how she had been using it before.
It was easy.
Controlling her chakra to use only the exact amount of her own chakra that she needed, and being a Nekoshou, she was able to draw out her Ki and surround herself with it and her chakra. The strength increase to her body was immense.
"8 days of training, and right now... you have gained strength that puts the old you to shame. Right now, the Koneko from 9 days ago would have NO CHANCE of winning against you now." Naruto told Koneko with absolute confidence.
Her chakra might have only gotten slightly stronger, but with her hard earned control, she was much stronger than she had been before. Her confidence had boosted as well, but Naruto frowned when he saw the smile on her face.
"I'm-"
"You haven't even come close to mastering Senjutsu, you're just a kitten right now." Naruto stated as he cloaked his fist in his own chakra. Naruto looked at the tree nearest to him, and he extended his fist.
He punched the tree.
The forest disappeared in blast of power.
"... Fuck..." Koneko dropped her Senjutsu when she realized just how amazing the difference between her small increase in strength was compared to what her Master had just shown her. In less than a second, the forest and the mountain next to the forest had been wiped off of the map.
Naruto showed Koneko his palms, and she looked down at her own.
"Balance, learn to balance Senjutsu with your Physical and Spiritual energies. I taught you chakra control, so that you could learn to control the chakra you needed to not go mad. Right now, your chakra is still incredibly out of balance. Your spiritual strength is far too weak for you to gain the full benefits of Senjutsu, or claim to be a master of it." Naruto explained to her. He placed his hands together.
She did the same.
Naruto smiled, and he placed his hand on her chest after taking them apart.
Her chakra was completely refilled.
"... This is what you did during my training on the lake... but... you... you gave me my own chakra." Koneko was only now starting to realize what was amazing about her training.
Naruto refilled her chakra.
"When you've created a perfect balance between Yin and Yang, you're able to share your chakra with others. You noticed how the chakra inside of you feels like your own chakra? Well, that is because I changed my chaka to match the Ki and Spirit energies inside your body. By reading your chakra, I changed the properties of my own to match it." Naruto explained to her what he had done.
The same way he shared chakra with people during the war, by reading the amounts of ki and spirit energy they had in their bodies and matching it with his own.
"Yin-Yang... Shadow and Light... Master, what are you attuned to?" Koneko came right out and asked the question as Naruto stood up.
He dusted himself off, and glanced at her.
"Why, I'm more attuned to Yang, despite being a user of Yin-Yang myself."
Koneko actually smiled.

People like to say that that Naruto-verse Chakra and DxD-verse Chakra are super different, but honestly, they aren't all that different by nature. Factually speaking, they work almost exactly the same with very little differences between the two.
Naruto-verse Humans: Evolved to have Chakra Systems and Tenketsu that allow them to control their chakra much better, and produce far more of it while maintaining control.
DxD-verse Youkai: Evolved to be able to use Senjutsu far more easily, but they have much weaker chakra and less control over their chakra.
Naruto is literally the PERFECT person to teach DxD-verse chakra users how to use their chakra, since he is a master of Senjutsu and has complete perfect control over his chakra.
