As promised the new chapter. Some more words as I axpected bit a nice work if you ask me. Enjoy it.
After the meeting in the Hokages office, Jiraiya dragged Naruto to an isolated training-ground instantly. The problem with the whiskers-marks was unsolved. If it catch someones eye Naruto will try to find an alibi. But now both Jiraiya and especially Naruto took the whole situation seriously and try to concentrate on the training. Surprisingly Naruto didn't say a word.
„Listen brat. To appraise your skills and train you properly I need to fight with you. Don't expect to win, I'm one of the three legendary Sannin for a reason but do your best. Fight with anything you have. Taijutsu, Genjutsu, Ninjutsu, Kunai and Shuriken. Kay?"
"I'm ready"
"Don't waste my time, begin."
Without the least delay Naruto charged at Jiraiya. He make a quick handseal and after a short cry six Naruto shadow clones poofed into existence. As fast as this atack begun as fast it was over. With a roundhouse-kick from Jiraiya all the clones were blasted and a fast punch which Naruto only barely blocked let him flew a few yards back. He quickly made a flik-flak and launched a kunai at the old man. He, completely unimpressed, grabbed the weapon out of the air and launched it back to Naruto with high-speed, made quick handseals and multiplied the kunai to fifty or sixty shadow-replications of his own. Naruto was amazed by the whole mass of weapons and tried to dodge the majority of them but six kunai hit him and one dug in his leg. A stabbing pain flooded his mind as he pulled it out of the flesh. Jiraiya went back in his beginning stance and grinned.
"Nice warming-up." He chuckled.
"Indeed." Naruto was amazed of the strength and pace of this old wierdo but he would never admit it. Instead he made a well-known handseal and cried: "Mass Shadow Replication Jutsu."
'Oh my fu(censored) kami' was all was Jiraiya thought. There were at least 500 Shadowclones. The sheer mass was just incredible.
"Hmm, I see. Quantity about quality. Intresting. Show me what you're capable of."
"As you wish Jiraiya-sensei."
7 hours later
Naruto lay on the bare flore, panting and sweating and angry. Why? Because the old, white haired ninja he fought looked like he had a nice nap the last few hours and not fought against everything Naruto was capable of.
"Well, I guess I've seen enough." Stated Jiraiya lamely.
"You know Ero-sennin, you won't see anything more from my today."
"Stop calling me that brat."
One of the only few blows that hit the Sannin was Narutos Sexy Jutsu. He wasn't sure to find it either funny or horrid that both of Konohas skillfullest Ninja, the Hokage and the Sannin, fall for his perverted Jutsu. Since that incident he only called Jiraiya Ero-sennin.
"OK so far I see that Kyuubi multiplied your chakra storach and stammina by ten that give you the most Chakra I've ever seen in a human."
Naruto, thinking of how great he was gave Jiraiya his trademark sheepish grin.
"Don't think to much about it. From what Iruka told me your chakracontrol has increased too, but it's still horrid. Your skills in Genjutsu are not existent and your Taijutsu stile is a piece of shit, but I've maybe a solution for that problem. You can't execute the simplest academy-jutsu but I have to admit that your skill with the Shadowclone Jutsu is awfull. But you didn't use it proper. You have no tactic and tried to hit me like a barbian."
The Sannin interrupped himself and sighed
"500 times no skill is still no skill and I'm not really sure why Sarutobi thinks so highly of you."
Naruto wanted to say something, not quite to give an angry remark or to beg for help, but Jiraiya instead made a niceguy-pose that reminded Naruto at bushy-browes sensei.
"But you're a lucky guy Naruto, you have me as your personal trainer and sensei. Only few were granted with that glory to be student of the great Jiraiya. HaHa"
Naruto only sweat-dropped. This guy was weird but indeed strong.
"I've a question. I understand that I've now parts of Kyuubis chakra added into my storage, but what's the reason of my better control?"
"Parts of the fox' cakra was constantly leeking into your system. That kind of …"
"It's like a sea constantly getting water from an reservoir. The sea isn't quiet as long as the streams hold on." Said Naruto in a voice like he was fare away. He remembered that feeling of his chakra but thought it was naturaly because he hasn't any comparsion. Now he has.
"OK what do we do in the remaining two weeks. Will I learn some ass-kicking A-ranked Jutsus, or S-ranked Jutsus, or Kinjutsu, or …" Naruto shouted of exitment but was stopped by Jiraiya. It was unbelievable. A few seconds were enough to transform a quiet intelligent aruto back into his five year-old form.
"NOOOOO!" he shouted back "How do you think you could do any A-ranked Jutsu if you're barely capable of doing an easy Clone Jutsu?"
"But I already know a B-ranked Kinjutsu…" Naruto was interrupted again by an angry Jiraiya.
"Yeah, because you pump chakra in this jutsu since it bursts. If you learn only an average control over your chakra you could be a Jounin in a few years. Just remember, you do not need any of your 'ass-kicking' jutsu if your not capable of the basics. Without these you will not come to far."
"OK, 'sensei' (yes Naruto actuelly said that ). How do we use the two weeks. It doesn't sound like much time to train for me."
"It is indeed, but I will use your only amazing skill, your Shadowclone Jutsu to buy us more time."
"How?"
"Please tell me you noticed. Please tell me you didn't use your clones just as an little army. Please Kami this brat couldn't be as dense as I aspected at the moment."
Jiraiya only noticed the sheepish grin of Naruto and know his prayer to Kami was unheard. He knead his temples. This boy was bringing him a huge headache.
"Listen brat. In short Shadowclons have their own chakrasystem an anything they learn will transmitted in your mind. This includes chakracontrol exercises. Tell me how many clones you can do with enough chakra for you to train and for them o do some jutsus and chakracontrol exercises."
Naruto have to consider the whole thing. Normally he doesn't do any jutsu with his clones.
"20 I guess. So with my new storage I guess I can 200."
It Suddenly dawned on him.
"So I have 400 weeks training instead of two. Am I right?"
If this was right he would going kicking asses in this exam.
"That's the idea." Chuckled Jiraiya. "Today I'll teach you water-walking what's more difficult then tree-walking. The first thing you'll do with your clones is working on your control over your chakra. After that I'll train you the basics, some jutsus and the basic of chakra enhacement. We've not enough time to make an avarage Genjutsu-user out of you but I'll teach you to release most of the Illusions you will encounter in the near future."
Jiraiya paused because he thought a staige wait would be perfect for his speech.
"I've already told you're your Taijutsu-stile is a piece of shit. It's because of your reflexes. You've learn to block but your body tries to dodge. It would be the best you invent your own stile that fits you, but we havn't enough time for such things. I'll teach you the Neko(cat)-stile. I guess it would fit you. Now I#ve to presents for you."
"Presents?" aruto was exited and back to his 'childish-form'.
Jiraiya gave him a slip of paper saw the look on Narutos face and explained.
"This is special paper. Focus your chakra in it and I can say what affinity your chakra has and what kind of jutsu I can teach you. Just focus your chakra in it."
Naruto did as he was told and the paper was cut in half and crumbled immediantly.
"Wow. wind- and lightningaffinities. And rather strong too. Intriguing."
"And whats with the second present?"
"Oh yeah. I almost forgot."
Iraiya made quick handseals and his palms began to glow yellow. Hit punched Naruto in his stomach.
"That's called a gravity-seal. Level ten to be accurate. Try to move with it, tomorrow you have to and I wont release it till the prelims."
Naruto made two mental notes as he crashed to the ground.
Training same as torture
Sensei's same as slave drivers
Ahh. The third chapter is complete. I hope you like it. I guess used the word 'chakra' ways to much. But what should I do?
Naruto's elements are Wind and lightning. Hehe did you see the parallel to the topic. I hope so
I've also started a Poll. I need your opinion. Should Sakura become a tsunade like medic nin in this fic or a Kurenai like genutsu user later in this story. Both sounded realistic. Please wote and review.
