Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto in any way shape or form; I just write kickass stories about him…….

Chapter One: Number One Knucklehead Ninja Returns Enter Naruto Uzumaki!

The air was clear and full of fine fragrances. The smell of wood and leaves came rushing into his nose. It had been three whole years since he had left the place he had called home. Konoha's hidden leaf village. The towering wooden gates before him brought back memories. His teacher had ridden him roughly for some time but he had become accustomed to such grueling training and it had only made him stronger so he couldn't complain. "Ready Naruto? A lot can change in three years." explained Jiriya explained. "I can't wait!" yelled the excited Nin. He ran up and knocked hard on the door and it rattled. "WHO'S THERE!" yelled a guard. "WHO DO YOU THINK IT IS!" yelled the blonde. All of a sudden an alarm went off. "What's going on!" questioned Naruto but his sensei was no longer there. He turned at the sound of hearing the door creak, but he jumped back when he heard it crack. The several story gates had been broken open and through came flying some familiar faces. A pink haired kunochi had the blonde Nin in a bear hug and was squishing the life out of him. "NARUTO! Oh my god! I can't believe your back." came the voice of Naruto's childhood crush Sakura. Seemingly after Sakura broke her grip two hands placed themselves on his shoulder. "Yo, Naruto-kun, welcome back" came out from the green spandex wearing Rock Lee. "Naruto-san, it's good to have you back." came the sound of the Hyuuga branch family house prized fighter Neji Hyuuga. "Hey Naruto! Here. You'll need them since you only eat ramen." came the voice of Kakashi Hatake who was up side down on a tree branch with a fruit basket. "Hey! Team 8 didn't forget you either!" said ex-rival Kiba with his dog now lion sized. Behind him came the ever silent Shino and the shy girl Hinata. "Hi….Naruto-kun…"spoke the white eyed. "Naruto" nodded the insectoid master. A crunching feeling came from Ino as she hugged him. He was sure his ribs would break. The rest of team 10 followed. Chouji who had arrived holding Ino's hand threw bag of pork flavored chips. "Got to keep your strength up Naruto" said the always hungry Nin. "Yo, Naruto" came the quiet intellectual Shikamaru. "So everyone's here huh? Where's Obba-chan?" Almost answering his question was the 5th hokage; she had him in a crushing hug lifting him off the ground and lifting off the ground. "My Naruto's back home….."She finally released him with a kiss on the cheek. "Well if everyone's done breaking my ribs, I need to get home to unpack. " Not so fast Naruto" Spoke Tsunade. "You got a new home and here's the key." She rotated a small metal key. "Really?" spoke the dumb founded Nin. It took about a ten minute trip through the twists and turns of Konoha's forest area just inside the gates. "You have got to be kidding! It's bigger then the Hyuuga Mansion!" cried out Neji. "Awesome!" shouted the blonde. It was a magnificent clan house that looked more like a castle. On the main building was a strange symbol of criss crossing eyes that connected and a center spiral shape in the center. The lines yellow being contrasted by pitch-black coloring between the lines and spiral. "Come Naruto, I'll explain everything about this in due time. However I want to see your new strength; follow me." She led the group of teenage shinobi. After going through the main building they arrived at a cleared out area of hardened sand and about one and half square miles in distance around. "Remember this area, it's known as the arena." "Naruto! Lee! How about a little sparring match to see how much our little Naruto has grown?" "I would be honored to fight you comrade but are you sure you want to test your skills against me? It could make your growth seem small." Spoke Lee giving his nice guy pose. "Bring it on Bushy-brow! I'm not the same as before. I'm not little, I'm not weak, I'm the strongest nin currently in Konoha, and soon to be Hokage!" "Wow, it's not like Naruto to brag, is he really that powerful?" thought the group of friends. "Lee, no holding back; resort to whatever you have to. Attempt to bring me down!" "Attempt? I will do more than that!" Lee got into his ready position putting one hand behind him and one in front aimed like a dagger. Naruto put both his arms out and then flipped backwards landing in a cat-like stretch pose. He embedded his fingers into the ground. "Ready? GOOOO!" shouted the fifth Hokage. Lee was the first to move. He merely turned his heel and was gone with the wind. He appeared behind Naruto. "I hope you are as strong as you claim Naruto, or you're going to be in for an unpleasant trip to the hospital. You won't even be able to see when it's over; that's how fast I am." He green beast vanished again and appeared in front of the blonde. The orange coat nin merely held his position. Lee vanished again and again. He was moving so fast it seemed like he had cloned himself. Appearing over him, next to him, and on all sides imaginable. "Comrade, if you do not strike first then I will!" Echoed Lee who seemed to be all around him. Naruto simply smiled "be my guest." Lee vanished one last time but did not reappear. All of sudden the spandex of green exploded from the leaves and was spinning his legs through the air toward the blonde nin. "KONOHA SENPOU!" shouted Lee. Just as he was about to hit Naruto ducked completely on the floor laying on his belly successfully going under the succession kicks being sent out by Lee. He then pushed himself straight up launching himself under Lee, elbowing him in the ribs sending him reeling in pain upwards into the air. The blonde disappeared in a blur of movement behind him and grabbed his legs. "Lee, I don't hold back for anyone; if you're still holding back your going to die." He began spinning in mid air going steadily faster and faster until he flung him far away from him. He flew for a food twenty seconds before crashing through a wall. Naruto stood in the same place he had been in from the start. "Lee's probably unconscious right now." He began walking back toward Tsunade when he felt massive chakra burst from the wall where Lee had been sent flying through. "NARUTOOOO! This may be a sparring match but it would seem this is an inadequate sum of power to test you! OPEN FOR ME NOW ONE THROUGH THREE!" If you would have seen the arena now you would see a rather large bullet of green flying toward Naruto. Lee halted to a stop and was now in front of the blonde looking back to normal. "Let's do this right, fight me at your limits" said the blonde. "As you wish" spoke the angered Lee. Three gates opened again and Lee was back in his near god like state. He felt the power rush in and flow to every muscle expanding and contracting pumping energy to every part of his body. He moved so fast that everyone was still looking at the spot he was before. Even Naruto but, it by the time they realized he had moved he was behind the fox boy. Naruto only smiled. "Good Lee" he suddenly jumped high into the air and made a few hand symbols. "EARTH GYSER JUSTSU!" yelled Naruto and up out of the ground of the previous spot he had been standing came a giant tower of earth in which he landed elegantly on. "What good would that do Naruto-kun!" echoed Lee across the entire arena. He finally emerged from his supersonic speed and landed a heavy blow with his fist into Naruto's chest which sent him off the pillar and through the air. He performed similar hand signs. "EARTH GYSER JUSTSU!" yelled Naruto and up out of the ground shot another pillar bringing him back to the original tower of earth. "Lee your fast but that last hit was to gauge your strength. You will not avoid this Lee. "My secret technique" spoke Naruto. "RASENGAN!" Suddenly chakra spun around inside one of Naruto's hand. It started spinning so fast it was like a ball of pure chakra. "That won't be enough gates Lee, try five or I can't guarantee your survival!" called out the blonde. "You will regret this with the pain you will soon feel; ARGHHHHHHHHHH! OPEN THREE TO FIVE!" Lee focused all the chakra into his hand now releasing the strain on the rest of his body. His god like appearance of white eyes levitating hair and constant emitting of green chakra ceased. His hand was now pure green. He looked toward the blonde. "I developed this new technique Naruto to counter yours as well as Sasuke's chakra palm techniques. My secret technique!" He shot up into the air toward Naruto. "CELESTIAL BREAKER!" screamed Lee. Naruto jumped off the tower of earth and headed in a nosedive toward the upcoming Lee. He held his "rasengan" level to the "celestial breaker" and forced his chakra to push him even faster downward. Lee tried the same but pushing upwards would be much harder then downwards so he focused all his energy into his "breaker" technique hoping to over power Naruto. With all the fighting they couldn't hear the screams of terror coming from the female shinobi. "This is too much, you could end up killed!" screamed Ino and Tsunade, "Lee don't due this; you already proved your strong enough!" cried out Sakura, but most loudly of the three screamed Hinata who surprised everyone " NARUTOOOO! STOP! I DON'T WANT TO LOSE YOU!" The male half simply stayed back and watched in amazement. They all agreed if they stopped this test it would only get worse. Both forces of chakra colliding sending shockwaves all over the place. They stayed suspended in the air holding back the other with their techniques. It was battle of will. The loser would probably lose his arm in the aftermath of the collision. Lee hung on to the gates supplying the chakra mold he needed. Naruto was using his seemingly infinite amount of chakra from his on supply. "Lee, you have gotten a whole lot better." "Likewise comrade, I'm sorry I let this get out of hand." Spoke Lee "Naaa, it was fun, but it ends here." Spoke the blonde. "How? We are dead even!" Lee choked out. "No! This is my power now!" Everyone stared in awe as Naruto's chakra energy spiked. The ball of energy around his hand started changing. Turning faster and faster wrapping around is hand and then going up his arm. It was as if his arm had become a small tornado. The blonde pushed his new weapon forward from the side knocking away Lee's breaker technique sending him to the floor
