None of this is mine
Midnight's fade
Chapter 7
A week had passed since he had fought with Sasuke and the week had been filled with booze, fighting Tenten and learning from the scroll that Anko had given him on smoke jutsus. Naruto lay panting in the middle of a field after having finally mastered all of the jutsus in the scroll.
During the week Naruto had been eager to finish the jutsus because he had spent time thinking about how to hake his own fighting style and moves.
He had come up blank until he thought of his most powerful move the rasengan and how he used it in fights.
He had thought of the ultimate technique for it. What if he made chakra spin in someone's body instead of spinning his own chakra outside his body he could tear there chakra coils and kill then almost instantly.
It would be almost like using the hyugga's fighting but instead of the precision of a knife to stop the coils he could use the precision of a sledge hammer to destroy them.
He had asked Ibiki about it because he had to constantly heal the people that he was torturing so they didn't die and he had told Naruto that it would be really amazingly difficult to manipulate someone else's chakra but if he put his chakra in there system first then it would be simple so the next stop on Naruto's training list was how to put his chakra into someone else then manipulate it.
He had also gone to see Kyubbi a few days ago who had informed his quite gleefully that he could use the snake that was in Naruto's body to attack people and he could even see from the snake's eyes. Naruto had tried to get Kyubbi to teach him how to put his chakra into things but he had refused then when Naruto had mentioned that Kyubbi owed him a jutsu after he had killed all those people just like he asked Kyubbi had agreed to teach him a cool technique to help him on his killing path but first he had to choose what kind of ninja he wanted to be.
When Naruto said he didn't know what he meant Kyubbi told him to come back when he knew what he wanted to learn and kicked him out of him head.
Naruto had pondered this and realised he didn't even know what kind of ninja's there were other that jounin, chunin, ANBU and genin but he wanted to do one thing at a time and learning the jutsus on those scrolls was the first thing he had to do he didn't want to be flooded with jutsus to learn he wanted to do them one at a time and master them because everyone's chakra coils were individual that's why you couldn't copy the hyugga's fighting style because they had to change where they strike for each person and it is also why each person is better with certain types of techniques, because there chakra flowed differently.
This also is why the Uchiha's techniques would never be as strong as someone's who learnt them properly because they have copied how they use their chakra which would be different than the one copying them.
Every time he used the jutsus his body learnt how to use the chakra formed in the technique better and better making the jutsu stronger but use less chakra.
After a week of trying to perfect the hidden smoke jutsu it had gotten to the point where it was like walking in the dark and the smoke actually weighed down on your body making you slower but Naruto found that this stopped him from seeing as well so he couldn't use it as of yet until he found a way to see through the smoke and he found out how to isolate the smoke so it made paths or shapes like just a half a metre smoke around Tenten's head that followed her around as she tried to get away from it with Naruto laughing until she heard him and kicked him in the face.
His speed had improved a lot in the week he had spent with Tenten and he could now almost dodge all of her and if he put enough chakra into his legs he could move faster than she could see hand get behind her though he wasn't as fast as Lee was he could still move quickly for short bursts.
Naruto decided on a lunch break and started heading to his favourite ramen stand.
Sitting on his fifth bowl he found the money in his wallet waning.
"I'm going to have to get another mission soon" Naruto thought to himself as he payed for another bowl of ramen.
"Hey Naruto-kun" Iruka said as he sat down next to Naruto "I like your new look though the whiskers may be a little bit much".
"Iruka-sensei" Naruto laughed "I'm glad you like them I'm thinking of getting them permanently tattooed on".
Naruto had continued to put the face paint on ever since Anko had done it when they had first started to hang out.
"Have you taken a break from your training? I haven't seen you in a while".
Naruto smiled "I'm taking a break because I've hit a snag in my training I've mastered the hidden smoke jutsu but I need to find a way to see through it".
"Well I have a trick that lets me see through desks and such to see if a student is cheating or anything like that I could teach you if you like it might work" said Iruka as he showed Naruto some hand seals and then touched his head in between his eyes as his pupil turned white.
"The trick is to pump chakra into your eyes in a steady flow to much and you will see through what you're looking for and not notice it and too little and you won't see through anything so it takes practice" Iruka said converting to teacher mode.
"Yes Iruka-sensei" Naruto said grinning he finally found the jutsu he had been looking for "But why haven't I heard of this jutsu before I've never seen anyone use it before".
"Simple I'm the only person that knows this jutsu because I invented it" Iruka said with a smile.
"..."
"How?" Naruto asked.
"What do you mean?" Iruka said confused.
"How do you know what hand seals to use and when do you just guess or..." Naruto quizzed.
"Well each hand seal represents a different thing like if you put one seal before another seal it could mean long range instead of short range or fire instead of water or anything like that you just need to find the right pattern and just put them together" Iruka said getting out a book with all the seals in it.
"But I don't get it if it's that easy why doesn't everyone do it and make their own jutsus?" Naruto noted.
"Well" Iruka said giving Naruto the book "Making jutsus is a very risky business because if you make a miss calculation you could make a jutsu that requires too much chakra and exhaust yourself to death, there was even a guy once that was trying to make a jutsu and ended up making a self-destruction jutsu and he blew up himself his house and his family and he was suppose to be a pro when it came to making jutsus so I want you to be careful if you intent to do something like this ok?".
"Yes sensei" Naruto smiled at his concern "I'll make sure to study thoroughly before trying anything".
Naruto read through the book page to page over and over again it seemed too simple that night he refusing Anko's offer to go out so he could get rest but he found that Ibiki and a few of the others had come after him dragging him out.
He was having fun drinking before an idea hit him.
"Hey guys what kinds of ninjas are there other than jounin, chunin, ANBU and genin?" Naruto asked loudly and found himself laughed at after.
One of the random girls that always seemed to be around took pity on him"Well first jounin, chunin, ANBU and genin aren't types of ninjas but the rank of ninja's that you can become. The types of ninjas are things like reconnaissance, assassination, thieves, interrogation" At this Ibiki and a few of the others cheered "medics and support ninjas as well as heavy support and cleaners there are even demolition and sabotage ninjas and that's just to name a few of them usually when you become chunin or even genin you start focusing on just one or two of them" she finished.
"I get most of them but what are support and cleaners? I assume that's not literal" Naruto said taking a sip of his beer.
"Cleaners specialise in erasing all evidence that a ninja killed someone after an assassination or anything where we don't want it to seem like there was any ninja involvement and support are people with heavy arsenal of jutsus to fire to cover ninjas retreat or to defeat a lot of people at once" She continued.
"What do you think I should do?" Naruto asked to the group as a whole.
"Well in interrogation we mostly stick to seasoned ninjas so you can join us in twenty years when you're past your prime and seen enough death" Ibiki concluded.
Anko Grabbed Naruto by the shirt "You're going to be an assassination specialist that's what I am as well you'll love it you get the most pay and the most action and we might get to go on missions together Naru-kun and you already Know some jutsus for assassinations like the smoke jutsus and your even a Wind type that's perfect for assassination" as she lent forward showing him a little breasts.
Naruto had to admit that this was one of the ones that had appealed to him the most and was considering it but Anko had sealed the deal she was just too hot to say no to.
"Yosh assassinations it is" Naruto yelled with his fist in the air as Anko cheered.
"Did he pick assassination just because she flashed him?" whispered Sunne one of the younger girls in the bar.
"...Maybe" Said a masked ANBU.
"To think this kid is going to base his whole career of what a girl with big boobs told him to do" laughed Sunne "What devotion".
That night Naruto drifted off to sleep only to find his way back into the den of the Kyubbi.
"What's the plan brat? What kind of ninja is Naruto Uzumaki going to be?" Kyubbi asked ferociously.
"An assassin ninja" Naruto said firmly glad he came to such a conclusion.
Kyubbi pondered this "you might do well as an assassin, your adventures with those thugs and the ninja confirm but what kind of assassin that do you want to be?"
"There's more than one kind? Are you fucking kidding me?" Naruto said quite furious that he would still not get his cool jutsu.
"Well actually you could either be long or short range you could specialise in sneaking in and killing one person or using mass destruction jutsus and killing lots of people at once. You could even be a demolition assassin that take out whole buildings at once or be an assassin that works with just poisons so you could kill a hundred people and there would be no evidence that you were there" Kyubbi explained "so which is it?"
Seeing the pissed off look on Naruto's face Kyubbi decided to take pity on him.
"Tell you what how about a teach you a long range assassination technique while you decide what you want to do"seeing Naruto's face light up almost made Kyubbi take what he said back but he soldiered on "As you can see it a little difficult for me to do jutsus I'm missing an important part of my body which makes handseals darn near impossible" and to prove his point he clashed his giant paws together "but your ninja ancestors never used Handseals like you do now because they were a lot stronger they just learnt to use their chakra to do primitive jutsus.
What I want you to do is take in a big breath and as you do use your chakra to condense in making it smaller and smaller but more dense and this makes more room in your lungs so you can add more and more but remember to keep it small.
Then shape it so it has a blunt point at one end and its sharp at the other and pool your chakra behind it and shoot it out as fast and hard as you can making sure the pointy end comes out of your mouth first." Kyubbi paused "did you get all of that?" seeing Naruto's affirmative nod he finished up "good now FUCK OFF" Kyubbi roared ejecting Naruto out of his mind violently enough to wake him up.
"What a bastard" Naruto said sleepily before nodding back off.
Naruto woke a few hours later to someone standing at the end of his bed.
"Dobe why haven't you gone around bragging about how you beat the Uchiha?" Sasuke asked generally curious.
"Getting put in prison isn't on my 'to do' list to be honest" Naruto said still bleary eyed and cursing himself that he got snuck up on even if it was by a ninja. He needed traps in his house to stop things like this from happening again.
Sasuke seemed to stare at him for quite a while "If you don't tell anyone then I won't either".
This was the first time that Naruto could take in Sasuke's appearance since the day they meet in the woods. His face was bruised up and he seemed to favour his left leg a bit. This was the first time that Naruto truly appreciated Kyubbi's healing power over his body. He had never had a bruise for more than a day and properly never would.
Naruto grinned this was more than he could have hoped for.
"Deal. Now would you kindly leave I am overly tired" Naruto said lying back down but grabbing one of the kunai under his pillow just in case.
"Don't think I won't get you back for cheap shotting me like that though" Sasuke sneered.
"Whatever now fuck off" Naruto said with a sigh waving his hand at the door.
"How come women never sneak into my room at night? That would be fucking awesome"Naruto muttered to himself as he rolls over and goes back to sleep.
A bird was flying across the sky when a burst of air completely destroyed it only for the bird to burst into smoke.
"Fucking ace shot" "wicked hit" "Good boy".
Naruto's cheer squad of kage Narutos were cheering him on.
They were all sitting in deck chairs with the real Naruto drinking bottles of beer in a overly thick mist as Naruto tried out Iruka's technique.
"Hey wait a minute didn't someone already say 'fucking ace'" The real Naruto said looking at one of the Kage Narutos.
"They did? Aww fuck. This is a stupid fucking game anyway" said the Naruto as he turned into a bird and started flying while air bullets flew at him while he tried to dodge it.
"I don't get it" said Tenten walking into the mist "You can't fly when you henge into a bird how come yours can".
"The way I figure it is that these aren't henges there bushins and they can fly mine are just more solid than most" Naruto said before his face screwed up in concentration and he blasted the bird from the air.
"whatever can we start our training now im getting restless" Tenten said twiching a little having not hurt Naruto in quite a few hours.
Naruto sighed and dispelled his clones "yeah ok whatever".
the end.
