I just walked away, Hagoromo knows that he won't disappear that easily. Once I enter the forest behind me, I unlock the seal and allow myself to feel the rage that is burning through my blood and then process the reasons for it.

You see, when I was younger, the women I had Naruclone keep an eye on were concerned about me and had befriended me- in secret of course, the old third geezer wouldn't want me in danger, and with the Uchihas' attitude, Mikoto couldn't even approach me openly. The others were also friedly, and I'm pretty sure I picked up the beginnings of romantic feelings from most of them… Anko always did have problems with the villagers, since she was introduced to me a few weeks after returning from being deceived by Orochimaru. Not that I blame her, he can be charming when he wants to be, but still. That said, the village hates me with a passion and I don't bloody care! They had better not try anything on those five, Hinata or the Sarutobis, because they will experience a demonic death.

Yūgao told me at the time that she didn't have the patience to be with Hayate, which seems to be an oxymoron, seeing as she was the most shaken by his death. Sadly, I knew what her biggest problem was- the fact that Hayate doesn't like me. That was not shocking. What was shocking was that she actually dated him despite that! I refuse to believe that she did that! Kurenai was in a similar boat- she wouldn't date Asuma because of his smoking habit, which she detests in a person due to her personal issues with the habit, and he never stopped smoking. Then she goes and falls for him during the training trip!? Again, I call bullshit on that! And the only one who could even begin to plan for those events to happen is Danzo, the bastard! Considering he had Itachi plan the massacre, I have no reason to dismiss the possibility that he manipulated events to suit his plans for me to be his weapon!

Rage boiling over the limit, I had to blow off some steam. Naturally, Kurama was eager to help.

"What do you think? Can we start to practise our transformations?" I ask it.

I get an affirmative. Bijuu chakra is corrosive, but that doesn't mean it can't heal- Jinchuriki are particularly in no need of healing with the right amount of Biju chakra. Also, Kurama is friendly, and it would hold the corrosion back enough for me to get used to it.[1]

Anyway, I enter Biju chakra mode, and by happenstance, Hagoromo is finishing up his explanation… Good, that means I don't have to worry about collateral.

I stretch my right hand out, and raise it above my head. I couldn't do it by myself anyway, and my chakra is naturally weaker at the moment, but the two of us? This is going to be only a slight problem.

I gather chakra in my palm, and start spinning it in multiple directions, creating a chakra shell to act as a guideline for size. Once I have the size properly adjusted for, I add in the wind. While Idiot Me was only capable of inserting wind chakra, the current me can pull the full abilities of this technique by incorporating the actual wind, though I'm gonna drain half our reserves, letting the malice out through this technique should be enough to drain that, and I do see my emotions boosting my reserves. Taking sen energy and incorporating it directly should also prove a calming influence, and replenish our reserves.

It's now got the characteristic teal colored ball surrounded by four white wind blades look I remember and used to defeat the various Rinnegan aspects. The size, as expected, was smaller, probably corresponding to my age, but I still know that this is a lethal jutsu, one labeled a kinjutsu due to its indiscriminate nature of wide range attack once it hits. Letting my frustrations out, I yell out the name of this jutsu, while letting it fly an appropriate distance before it explodes.

"Fūton-Rasenshuriken!"

The white dome exploded into existence at around 2km away from me, and what a sight it was… Even now, despite the mass success it has had since I created it, the actual feeling of success was therapeutic, I still can't believe I created a technique that could actually defeat the Hyūga clan's ultimate defence, one that is unique to me as well!

I mean, the Sharingan can't count all the microblades that are created, and they have the best dynamic vision of all dōjutsu! The Hyūga clan is weak at dynamic vision, and their Hakkeshō Kaiten can't block them all- the time required to hold the defence is too short to use with their natural sense of balance, and they can't absorb chakra or defend senjutsu-based techniques effectively without using senjutsu- an obvious weakness that I can use whenever.

That said, they could dodge, but their pride prevents them from really expanding their jutsu arsenal for when they have no choice but to get hit by it, which then means they use Kaiten- but that results in chakra exhaustion and then they get hit anyway- which quickens the death sentence that I place on them. I will need to expand Hinata's arsenal and put the backbone that she needs in her when I bring her in, but that's an easy task to accomplish. I deactivate Bijū Chakra mode and rest.

Oh, they're approaching me?[2] Damn, prepare to be crushed!

Mom, I'm not surprised you're hugging me, but why the tears? I ain't in pain, ain't under attack, but I am pretty hungry.

"Idiot! What were you doing here all alone!? What if someone attacks you? Don't revive me and make me worry all at once, you oaf!" OK, I get it and the embrace feels warm, but please loosen up or I might die from all the exposure to the positive emotions! Besides, there is no one but us here- sub-dimensions!

When I say this, I get slapped on the top of my head and hugged harder… I wonder, is this what it feels like to feel a mother's warmth? I could sleep, but we gotta start the war council

Then the surprise shoots outta a portal…

"What the fuck, Naruclone!?"

There is a reason this is shorter than usual- I'm using this as a setup for the next chapter, which will be longer than usual. That said, I realize this is short, so an explanation will be given in the next chapter's contents

[1]- Naruto is drawing on his experience from the previous timeline- Just because his abilities are single minded doesn't mean the experience is wasted, ya know.

[2]- I couldn't resist the temptation, also, this was completely coincidental.
