Authors note:

Thanks a lot for the reviews guys. I'll try my hardest to kick my habitual ways of typing. Most of my typing is done on AIM so I got very accustomed to typing 2morow or no1 ECT. Because it saved me a lot of time and effort (I'm really……really lazy) so if your willing to be patient I'm willing to change it. As far as me rushing…..sorry. I'll try and slow it down because I always hate it when stories are rushed. So I'll try and fix that to. Please forgive my misusage of many words, I tend to use to instead of too and their instead of there, not a very grammatical person either.

I'm planning on making a shit load of changes to the storyline so I hope none are offended by my untraditional shredding of the Naruto storyline.

Now to answer some of your questions

TrapedSoul- sorry you'll just have to read to find that out.

Kasek- if I'm not mistaken chakra string could be directly connected to chakra holes. But I think you need a lot of control to do that. Something Naruto doesn't have.

Steel TimberWolf- I do believe their will be upgrades but I'm not really warming up to the idea. Just because I know myself and I'll probably make him rely on it, so for the mean time it will stay like that. As for pairings, I don't think I'll do a pairing. Just because of the plans I have for the future it'd be difficult for him 2 have a relationship where he winds up later on (hint) and if there is a pairing it would have to be an OC pairing if anything.

Generic Name- you mentioned another fic that Naruto gets a puppet's arm. Which one would that be? I've never read it so if you wouldn't mind I'd like to know which one that is.

I'm planning on updating once every one or two weeks, because despite the fact that I'm lazy I tend to be a very busy guy.

So anyways, this is pretty much a recap of what happens in the anime/manga. Naruto learning Rasengan and all that but I did change it around a bit but nothing major. Enough of my rambling on with the chapter

-Chapter 2-

Keep on Training Midget Boy

Jiraiya lead Naruto to another town on their way to find Jiraiya's old friend. After an interesting demonstration on the new technique that Naruto would be learning, Naruto is left alone yet again so Jiraiya could go look for his friend. Naruto knew that Jiraiya was probably just off peeping at women again, but he didn't care. Naruto Just wanted to learn this new technique.

Flash back

"So how am I suppose to learn another jutsu that the 4th Hokage made if I can't do hand seals?" asked a bewildered Naruto

"Well you see." Said Jiraiya trying to explain to the dumb blond "The jutsu does have a set of hand seals, but they are so many of them, it would take you years upon years of constant reading just to memorize it. Plus it would take roughly an hour and ½ to do all the seals in sequence. Something your opponent wouldn't just sit back and let you do. So the only logical way to do the jutsu is for you to do exactly like you said to do for the chakra strings. Force chakra to do your biding. It will burn, and sting at first, but after a while you will get use to it" said Jiraiya

"ZzzZZZzzzZZZzzz" responded Naruto

"WAKE UP YOU BRAT!!" yelled Jiraiya

"I'M AWAKE I'M AWAKE!" responded Naruto "I HERD EVERYTHING I SWEAR." Assured Naruto "Force the jutsu, I got it"

"You can't just force a jutsu Naruto, you must make it do your bidding" said Jiraiya gravely

"?" responded Naruto

"Sigh go ahead…Force the jutsu" said Jiraiya "he'll have to learn eventually, but for now I'll just let him find out on his own" (AN: since flash backs are italic I guessed thoughts in flash backs should just be normal font. Other wise it could be difficult for some readers to tell if it's thought or not)

"So how do I do it?" asked Naruto

"Hear" Jiraiya tossed Naruto a water balloon "Spin the water with your chakra and try to pop the balloon. Well I'll be off"

"WAIT!" yelled Naruto "What is it that you want me to do?" he asked

"You're hopeless" Jiraiya said while taking out another water balloon. He then proceeded to spin his chakra into the balloon and popped the water balloon.

"How the hell am I suppose to do that?" asked Naruto pleadingly

"You're smart Naruto. "Yeah right." You can figure it out." Said a smiling Jiraiya as he walked of

Naruto muttered something about perverts and how he is going to be burning all his notes when he gets the chance.

End flashback

"That was 2 days ago." Said Naruto to himself "AND I STILL CAN'T POP THIS FUCKIGN BALLOON!!!!!!!" yelled Naruto in Frustration. "WHY WON'T YOU POP YOU STUPID PIECE OF SHIT!!!" cursed Naruto

"Having fun?" Came a voice from behind him

"You know, you shouldn't sneak up on people." stated Naruto "Kakashi-sensei told me about his ANBU days and how he once almost killed a fellow ANBU-nin because he snuck up on him." Said Naruto, trying to warn Jiraiya

"And you are far from an ANBU so I don't' have much to worry about now do I?" jabbed Jiraiya

"You'd be surprised at what I'm capable of Ero-Sennin" warned Naruto in a semi dangerous tone. "I do harbor a very powerful demon in my belly"

"THE most powerful demon mind you, and even with all that raw, ancient power, you still can't even pop a simple water balloon" teased Jiraiya

"I'M GONNA KILL YOU!!" raged Naruto

"Why don't you try and burst that bubble instead?" asked Jiraiya pointing at Naruto's water balloon.

Naruto calmed down immediately and sported a frustrated expression on his face. "I just can't get this damn thing to pop." Stated the blond "It's like trying to hold water in an open palm."

"How so?" asked the perverted author

"I know I have to make it spin in many direction. I learnt that from the cat at the inn. Till then I was just making it as flat as a pan cake, but now I make it into what looks like a ball with a moving wart." Said the vessel

"That's because you're only spinning it in one direction" stated Jiraiya

"I no that" said Naruto "But I just can't make it spin in another direction "

"Can't is a word for People who give up" said Jiraiya "I don't ever want to hear those words out of your mouth again. Or you could just pack your bags and go back to Konoha and just forget about being a Shinobi. If you can't get past this hurtle then you have no chance of ever making it in the shinobi world." Jiraiya was very aggravated at Naruto for just giving up

"….." Naruto had nothing to say. He had just gotten for the 1st time in his life, words of encouragement from someone he really respected (though he'd never show it). And he was told he could do better. Naruto let out a smile to let Jiraiya know he wouldn't' give up.

"Now that's more like it" Said Jiraiya smiling back. He walked off to leave the blond alone

"WHERE ARE YOU GOING NOW?" yelled Naruto

"Some one has to look for Tsunade, while the other is off learning to better himself" stated Jiraiya

"Are you going to go peeping at the woman's bath house or something?" accused Naruto

"No yes" said then thought Jiraiya

"What ever you perv, leave me alone" said Naruto in an aggravated tone. And Jiraiya resumed to go peeping

Naruto kept a small smile as his thoughts kept lingering at what Jiraiya told him

"Stupid perv" was all Naruto said before he continued to try and break the water balloon

-10 hours later-

A tired Naruto walks into his motel room to find a Passed out Jiraiya on the floor. Naruto pokes Jiraiya with his feet.

"Oye, pervert, wake up." Said Naruto in a tired voice all the while poking Jiraiya's sleeping body

"Oye….." He said again. After a few seconds with out a response Naruto Develops a Sheepish smile on his face as he reached for one of his several water balloons and popped it over Jiraiya's Face.

Jiraiya wakes up from having been doused in cold water. After last night's drunken frenzy he had a splitting head ache and didn't appreciate being woken up with such a shift in temperature. (AN: I don't know if you've guys have ever been drunk but whenyouhave a hang over the last thing you want is a change in temp, makes your head bound. Maybe it's just me but if so, it happens to Jiraiya to)

"What the hell was that for?" asked Jiraiya angrily only to grab his head and curse at himself for raising his voice so loud.

"Because I had to pee, and your face just reminded me so much of a toilet that I couldn't help it" said Naruto with a sinister grin on his face

"YOU…YOU…..YOU JUST PEED ON ME?!?!" asked Jiraiya bewildered and offended. "YOU'RE DISCUSTING! YOU KNOW THAT?" yelled Jiraiya rushing for the shower

Naruto barley holding his laugh back in the 1st place was now on the floor laughing. "I…..I….I" was all Naruto could manage to get out as he laughed between breathes. "I GOT YOU SO GOOD!" panted Naruto

"Got me?" asked Jiraiya in the shower

"That was just water from the water balloon" said Naruto with a huge grin

"Then why'd you tell me you peed on me? I was about to have your Gennin status revoked and sent back to the academy.

"It was just too funny to pass up! Plus you need a shower, you reek of Alcohol and you smell sweaty and like if you spent the whole night working out." Stated Naruto

Jiraiya walked out the shower with a huge grin on "I'll teach you about all of that when you're a little older. Trust me, you'll love it as much as I do" he said while placing his hand upon Naruto's shoulder

Naruto was confused but just decided to drop it. "Anyways, I popped the Water balloon" said Naruto smugly.

"Really? Let's see."

Naruto grabbed yet another Water Balloon and made it into a bumpy mess. After a few seconds of morphing about it popped and released all the water on the floor.

"Hmmm….." said Jiraiya "looks like step one is complete"

"YES!" said Naruto full of enthusiasm

"2 and ½ days to get past step 1, not bad kid" Jiraiya lingered in his thoughts for a few minutes while Naruto jumped about. He then reached into his bag and pulled out a rubber ball and tossed it at Naruto.

"Break that" he stated simply

"No problem! I'll pop this ball in ½ the time I did the water balloon." Boasted Naruto

"I advice you from taking this test so lightly Naruto. It's not something that is easily done. This step is 20 or 30 times harder than the 1st one." Warned Jiraiya

"It doesn't matter how hard it is! I said I'd break it in ½ the time and I'll do it" stated Naruto in a proud tone

"What ever you say brat, I'm going to look for Tsunade you just keep doing what your doing. If you keep going at this rate, you'll be able to master it in about 7 months." Said Jiraiya with a bit of pride (although he didn't show it)

"I'll master it by the end of the month" said Naruto in a serious tone

"Heh, I'll hold you to it brat" said Jiraiya as he walked off

Naruto, fueled by a new wave of motivation set off, back to the field he had been training in to try and break the rubber ball that was given to him by his perverted mentor.

-several hours later in the mid after noon-

"Naruto passed out from chakra exhaustion again" Jiraiya thought to himself "I should take him back to the Hotel before he gets eaten by wild animals or something." Jiraiya mused to himself

After he dropped an exhausted Naruto at the inn he spotted a pretty woman several hours later who was looking for a good time. He went with her, to her apartment, unaware at the events that would be unfolding back at his room at the inn.

-4 am at Naruto's room-

Knock Knock

Naruto was awaked by a knocking at the door. He groggily got up and slowly walked to answer the door. He figured it was just Jiraiya who he noticed forgot his key to the apartment. As he opened the door he was greeted by a pair of crimson eyes.

"Hello Naruto-kun" said the red eyed man "I would like for you to come with us, if you choose to struggle we will have to take you by force"

Naruto eyed the man and only one thought came to mind. "Sauske" This man looked exactly like his Uchiha team mate; he even had eyes that looked exactly like the Sharingan.

"Who are you?" asked Naruto "And what do you want from me"

"You talk to much brat!" said a darker and raspier voice from Behind the Sauske look alike. "Itachi, lets just lop off one of his legs and drag him over. No use trying to convince him to come with a couple of strangers. They never do.

"Very true, but when I herd that the Kyuubi Vessel had lost an arm I don't think he'll put up much of a struggle anyways." Stated the man named Itachi.

"I still want to cut something up with my sword" stated the shark like man

"I thought he would have tried to give up being a shinobi, but that is the Kyuubi for you. I guess its vessel inherited its fiery spirit." Said Itachi

"What makes you say that?" said the unknown assailant

"Look at his hands Kisame. They are burnt from so much chakra. And his dilated eyes, stiff body, and horse voice are telltale signs of chakra exhaustion. He's been training despite his lack of an appendage." Stated Itachi

"Oh ho!" said the shark skinned man called Kisame "I Like him then. But I'm still gonna chop off a leg!" he said raising his sword

"ITACHI!" yelled a familiar voice with so much malice that it would make even Kakashi flinch.

Naruto turned to see Sauske glaring at his look alike. He then raised his voice and said "I don't' know who you guys are but Jiraiya warned me about you guys, you're Akatsuki aren't you?"

"Yes we are Naruto-Kun" said Itachi "And since you wont' come with us willingly we will have to take you by force"

"DON'T' IGNORE ME YOU BASTERD!" yelled Sauske, Igniting his Chidori as he ran at top speed to Itachi.

Kisame intervened but Itachi appeared in front of Kisame and grabs Sasuke's wrist and snaps it one handed. "Still not enough…hatred" whispered Itachi into Sasuke's ear and then proceeded to beat the crap out of him.

Naruto had seen just about enough "Get away from him!!" demanded Naruto as he released a portion of Kyuubi's chakra.

"Oh no you don't" said Kisame. And right away Naruto felt Kyuubi's chakra leave him and he couldn't pull any more out.

"What the hell is going on?" Naruto said aloud but to himself.

"Heh." Smirk Kisame "My Rough Skin (Samehada) eats chakra, so you can't do anything funny" He then lifts his sword and aims for Naruto's right leg.

"SUMMONING-JUTSU!" yelled a voice and a 7 foot tall toad with arm pads appeared to block Kisame's strike.

"Looks like I made it just in time" said Jiraiya appearing behind Naruto. "That Sauske kid is getting beta pretty badly, guess I'll have to take care of both of them"

"DON'T' TOUCH THEM!" yelled Sauske coughing up blood. "HE'S MINE!"

Itachi punched him hard, under the Solar plex (not sure how it's spelt but it's the cartilage in your chest that holds your ribs in place) promptly knocking Sauske out, but before he was enveloped in a blissful sleep he hears the tormenting voice of his older brother say "you're pathetically weak"

"I've gotta end this quick" Jiraiya said to himself

"Gama Guchi Shibari" Jiraya yelled as he planted his hands on the ground. Right away, the whole hall ways turned to a wet, slimy layer of flesh, and as soon as it appeared it started to eat away at Itachi and Kisame.

"Kisame, we should leave." Said Itachi with a tone of indifference

"Why? We can take an old man and 2 brats, one with a broken arm and the other with a missing arm." Argued Kisame

"Do as you're told. We have orders to capture the Kyuubi, not reek havoc on the town." Stated Itachi with so much hidden malice that Naruto couldn't' help but shiver

Kisame looked at Itachi and got his thoughts together. "Fine!" he said and they both made a break for it. Jiraiya ran right after them. As he turned the corner what greeted his eyes shocked and disturbed him. There was a gaping hole in the wall where the stomach should have been. And black flames where all around the flesh wound.

"What are those two?" Jiraiya thought to himself

"Hey Ero-Sennin! What's this black fire?" asked Naruto reaching forward

"DON'T TOUCH IT YOU IDIOT!" yelled the pervert, Naruto was taken back by the sudden jump in volume.

Jiraiya took out a scroll and quickly sealed the black fire in it.

"What was that?" asked Naruto

"I don't know but what I do know is that we are going to have to return to Konoha" stated Jiraiya

"Why!?" asked a bewildered Naruto

"Because we have to take Sauske baWHAM!" Jiraiya was promptly kicked in the face

-Several seconds later-

"Sorry about that Jiraya-sama" said the energetic Gai "I forgot my mirror and I had to use my forehead protector instead, and it gave me a choppy image."

"Who carries around a mirror" thought Naruto and Jiraiya

"Oh well, no big deal." Said Jiraiya with an obvious fake smile plastered on his face. "But take the Uchiha boy back to Konoha, Naruto and I have to resume our mission"

"Yes Jiraya-sama!" Gai said proudly "I will do my best!"

"Yeah yeah just shut up and get out of hear you loon" said Jiraiya waving him off

"Naruto-kun!" Gai pointed at Naruto "I like your spirit kid, how about I give you what makes my Lee so strong?"

"Really?! What is it?! What is it?!" asked Naruto jumping up and down with joy

"This!" Gai pulled out a pair of green spandex like the one he himself had on

"Cooooool" said Naruto Brimming with joy

"You've got to be kidding me" yelled Jiraiya mentally

"Now with those you can become as strong as Lee" said Konaha's beautiful green beast "I will be taking my leave now" Gai then sprinted in Konaha's direction at a blindingly fast speed

Naruto sat down and started undoing his shirt

"What are you doing?" asked Jiraiya fearing for the worst. His fear where concurred when Naruto said "Putting on the Gift that Gai-sensei gave to me." As though it where an every day thing

"If you put that horrid thing on anywhere around me I wont' teach you a damn thing anymore" threatened Jiraiya and Naruto sulked and put the spandex into his back pack.

"But from now on we are going to have to be very careful" warned Jiraiya "Now that Akatsuki has made its move there is no telling when they will strike again"

"So does that mean that when ever I train your going to have to be their with me?" asked Naruto with hope written all over his face

"No" said Jiraiya "He's not as dumb as I thought he was, of course I'm gonna have to watch over you, but my presence will hinder your training so I'll have to hid from you"

"Then what if I'm attacked while your out peeping at girls?" asked Naruto

"They wont' attack you any time soon; Akatsuki doesn't redo tasks until long periods of time have passed." Lied Jiraiya

"Oh, well if you say so, I have no choice but to trust you now don't I" said Naruto with a smile

"I guess you don't" said Jiraiya smugly "sometime all you can rely on is blind faith"

"Well I suggest you get back to training, that jutsu won't learn itself." Said Jiraiya

"You're right, but first breakfast!" said Naruto raising his fists in the air.

"Fine what ever but I choose this time." Said Jiraiya "I'm sick and tired of ramen

"How can you get tired of ramen, it's the most amazing thing this world has ever created" said Naruto with so much enthusiasm it was sickening.

"You have much you learnyoubrat" said Jiraiya "You have to learn to eat right. Ramen is mostly carbohydrates, but to grow you need that plus a lot of calcium, iron, and protein in your system. Other wise you'll stay short for the rest of your life"

"Screw you old man!" said Naruto

"Look I'm not saying you have to give up on ramen or anything. What I'm saying is you should eat more varieties. More fruits, veggies"

"Ramen has some veggies" Naruto interrupted

"The boiling water and oils strip them of their nutrients. So you just eating a mesh of crap" stated Jiraiya "And what did I tell you about interrupting?"

Naruto simply hmphed

"Eat some more meat, fish, fruits, veggies, drink milk ECT. One day you could be as strong as me if you do." Jiraiya looked smugly

"I beet you with my sexy-no-jutsu" stated Naruto

"THAT WAS ONE TIME!" yelled Jiraiya

"A win's a win" stated Naruto

"Ok then, you can be as strong as Kakashi" said Jiraiya, trying to convince Naruto

"Kakashi-sensei is extremely last and a perv like you, he'd probably lose to my sexy-no-jutsu just like you." Stated Naruto in a defying tone

"Kids gotta point their" thought Jiraiya

"Hmmmm… you can become even stronger than the 4th." Said Jiraiya with his final attempt at convincing Naruto

"…how would you know" asked Naruto a bit weary

"I did train the 4th did I not? I think I know my prized pupil more than anyone else" stated Jiraiya; he then let his mind linger on thoughts of the 4th Hokage only to be interrupted by Naruto

"Okay okay I get you. I'll try and change my eating habits. But I'm still having at least 1 of my 3 meals as ramen.

"Fine what ever you're so stubborn sometimes" said Jiraiya

-After breakfast- (Waffles and oatmeal in case your curious)

Naruto was back in the same field. "Damn…Ero-Sennin wasn't kidding when he said it was 20 or 30 times harder. I can't even make the rubber ball bumpy, let alone break it."

Up in the trees Jiraiya observed Naruto from a safe distance so that he couldn't be seen. "C'mon Naruto don't get discouraged, I know you can do it" Jiraiya silently encouraged his new pupil when his kage bunshin dispersed itself, finding out that Tsunade was in a town not to far away from their current location.

"I guess we should get going if we ever hope to find her" He spoke to himself

He does a teleporting jutsu about 50 meters from Naruto and walks up the path

"Oye Naruto!" he yelled out

"WHAT IS IT?!" Naruto yelled back in anger

"My my aren't we touchy" said Jiraiya a bit annoyed

"Sigh Sorry Ero-Sennin, I'm just a bit tired and frustrated" stated Naruto honestly "I just managed to make a hole in the ball but not an explosion like you showed me"

"When did that happen?" Jiraiya thought "show me" he said

Naruto started to spin his chakra wildly and added as much power as he could muster, there was a small popping sound and the rubber ball deflated a little

"Not bad brat, but you need to make the ball shred to pieces from the inside" said Jiraiya

"I know I know, well lets get going. Tsunade won't find herself now will she" said Naruto

"That she won'tyoulittle ass, that she won't" said Jiraiya in a mocking ton

Done

Well that's another chapter down and about 40 trillion to go. My friend Joan gave me a really good idea today and I really do think I'm gonna use it but that's a lot later on in the story. The only thing I don't like about the idea is that Naruto will Kind of be like Ang from Avatar but I still like the idea.

Well I'll leave this to you guys, would you prefer to see Naruto gradually get smarter over time or do you want keep him a bit of a dimwitted idiot.

I updated fast because I was bored at home today. Don't expect them to updates every day or every few days.

And here's a bit of a small teaser. I'm planning on having Naruto do the summoning jutsu in the next chapter ;)

Also if there is any1 who would be willing to translate for me I'd appreciate it. I don't know Japanese but I hate the way I'm saying jutsu right now summoning jutsu and what not, sounds to much like the American Naruto ( which I hate XO) so yeah a bit of help w/ that is you will
