Alright! Next Chapter's up! WOO-HOO!!
Tsunade turned to look at Masashi. The man was staring in complete and utter shock. She wouldn't have been the least surprised if his head were to break apart if she pushed him over.
"Ahem, now, for attempting to subdue an active shinobi, I hereby sentence you to 3 level D missions. Cant have you do anything too dangerous, since you're not a shinobi…." She said, sounding disappointed.
"However, since D rank missions are pretty much just physical labor, I can sentence you to that." She said icily. Then she lowered her voice dramatically.
"However, if you ever threaten my ototo again, I will personally kill you. Do I make myself clear?" she asked quietly. Needless to say, the man was scared and nearly pissed his pants so he just nodded to show that yes, he understood, and no, he didn't have a death wish. As he slowly backed up Naruto flipped him off. The man turned red from sheer fury.
"You damned little--" he didn't get to finish what he was saying because a super powerful punch sent him flying to the other side of town. The attack was so unexpected by everyone, even Naruto, that they were shaking from the ferocity of it. Tsunade just straightened up smiled.
"So, who's hungry?" she asked with straight face. Everyone exchanged glances then burst out laughing.
"Oh my god! Did you see his face-"
"Yeah! And how it got all red-"
"And Hokage-sama's face when she punched him-"
"That was too funny-"
"And it totally came out of the blue!"
They were all talking at once rather loudly when Tsunade called a halt in the chatter.
"Yo! Who wants ramen?" she asked. Naruto's eyes lit up and he hopped up and down!
"Oh, I do, I do! Are you treating Tsunade no baa-chan?! Yes! That's great!" he said enthusiastically, waving his hands in the air. The group began laughing again.
"Heh heh! Yes, it's my treat Naruto. As a welcome back gift." She said with a smile. He started skipping down the street towards Ichiraku.
"YATTA! Ramen! Alright, first I want miso, then chicken, then beef, then I want another chicken, then a shrimp, then a—"
"Naruto! Calm down! I said I'd treat you, I didn't say I'd buy you the whole ramen stand!" Tsunade yelled at the orange and black blur. Said blur stopped in mid-leap and stood there for a few minutes with a stupid expression on his face, before remembering gravity and falling back to earth.
"Dammit! That hurt like hell…" Naruto exclaimed sitting up and rubbing his back. Everyone was chuckling at the idiotic antics as Tsunade massaged her temples.
"As I was saying, I will buy, at the very most, three bowls of ramen, not five, no more than three! Do I make myself clear?" she asked him. He crossed his arms and put a pout on his face.
"Hmph! Well then, I don't want to go to Ichiraku's!" Naruto says, pout still on his face.
"What?!" everyone yelled, shocked at this change of heart. They stared at him with their eyes bugging out. He just stared back with the pout still on his face. He let out a sigh then looked at them.
"Well if we go to Ichiraku's then I'll have to smell all the good ramen and I only get three bowls and then I'll still be hungry, so instead, I want a whole box of ramen from the store!" he said with a grin. They continued to stare at him and then they smiled.
"How many bowls of Ramen do you think you'll need, Naruto?" Temari asked the blonde. He scratched the back of his head as his stomach let out a growl. Actually, it was more of a roar.
"Heh heh heh…. Actually, I haven't eaten anything in nearly three weeks. I had a soldier pill about a week and a half ago but it ran out. So I'm starving. I'm thinking maybe 30 bowls of ramen ought to do it…" he said with a grin. Everyone did a face plant.
"You haven't eaten in three weeks?! What the hell was Jiraiya doing?!" Tsunade demanded.
"He spent the money you sent us on sake and women. He did give me some sake and dango…" Naruto said.
"He gave you sake?! He spent it on women?! That dumbass!" Tsunade yelled. She turned around as if to look for the perverted sannin. Tsunade must have had the luck of the devil because said Sannin turned the corner. For Jiraiya it was a cruel twist of fate.
"Hey! Tsunade! Where have you been?! I've been looking everywhere…for…you?" he said, faltering when he saw her face. She advanced on him and he turned white.
"Jiraiya you idiot! You spent the money I sent you on women and sake?! And you let Naruto drink sake?! What the hell were you thinking?!" she asked with a mighty punch to his gut. He sat up wheezing and holding his stomach.
"I got him some soldier pills! And it wasn't just some sake. It was the entire bottle. He has quite the capacity and I—OOOOF!" he was sent flying again. He didn't get up this time. Sakura ran over to make sure he wasn't dead.
"He has a concussion and a broken rib but he'll live. He's just unconscious." She announced after a moment studying the man. She got to work mending his rib and speeding up the healing process of his concussion.
"You drank the whole bottle of sake?" Ten-Ten asked him. He blushed and nodded his head.
"Hmmm. Jiraiya said you have a large capacity. Well, let's get to the store and I'll get you a couple boxes of ramen…" Tsunade muttered.
"Neh, Hokage-Sama we'll all pitch in and buy Naruto his Ichiraku Ramen." Chouji said. Everyone nodded their heads in agreement. Naruto looked at them and smiled. Then he started crying tears of joy (much like Lee does when discussing the 'Flames of Youth') and he jumped on Chouji and Neji and hugged them fiercely.
"For reals?! YATTA!! You guys are the greatest!" he said happily. He started jumping around again. They watched the blond's silly antics and chuckled.
"Come on you baka! Or we'll revoke our offer!" Ino yelled at the jumping boy.
"WHAT?! NO! I'm coming! Wait for me, my ramen!" he yelled, racing off towards Ichiraku and leaving behind a large cloud of dust.
"Tsunade-sensei? What should I do with Jiraiya-sama? He's too heavy for me to lift…" Sakura asked with a worried tone.
"Just leave him there. I'm sure he'll wake up eventually." Tsunade replied. She turned on her heel and followed the dust cloud to Ichiraku's. everyone followed her and they arrived outside of Ichiraku's within minutes. Naruto was already there and was jumping from foot to foot impatiently.
"Yes! You guys are finally here! I was getting kind of worried! For a minute there I thought you guys ditched me!" He said.
"Well, you're here now so let's go in and eat!" he said, jumping onto a stool.
"Hey Ojii-san! Give me two of everything!" Naruto yelled to the man behind the counter.
"Naruto! I had heard you were back! Welcome-back!" Ayame said to the blond bundle of energy. Naruto gave her his trademark grin.
"Thank's nee-chan! Look, I brought all my friends to you guys too!" Naruto said, gesturing behind him. Ayame and Teuchi looked behind him…and nearly passed out.
"H-Hokage-sama! Wh-what a pleasure to have you in my shop! Please, make yourself comfortable and I will see to your needs right away!" he said, quickly dashing out to greet her properly.
"Now now, no need for that! See to my ototo here, he hasn't eaten in about three weeks and he's starving." Tsunade explained to Teuchi and Ayame. They looked between Naruto and Tsunade then nodded their heads.
"Very well then. Are there any other orders?" Teuchi asked, suddenly very business like. They all place their orders and sat down in the stools.
"So Naruto, since we haven't seen you in so long, all your ramen is half price! And your friends too!" Teuchi announced to the group. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. This did not go unnoticed by Teuchi though and he narrowed his eyes.
"Naruto? Are you making them treat you? If you're making them treat you I'll have to ban you from my shop for a month!" Teuchi ordered.
"WHAT?! No! Ojii-san! I'm not making them treat me! I swear! Please don't ban me from Ichiraku's! what will I eat?! How will I survive?!" he asked panicking.
"Oh, hush, Naruto. Teuchi-san, we all offered to treat Naruto sort of as a welcome home gift to him." Sakura and Ino explained.
"That and we felt kinda bad for the guy. After all he hasn't eaten properly in nearly three weeks." Ten-Ten said. Everyone else nodded their agreement.
"And of course we cannot let our friends Youthful Flames diminish! That would be a shame!" Lee added. Everyone looked at the green clad Jonin and he continued on about Youthful Flames obliviously. Everyone shook their heads.
"So, tell us all about the past half year Naruto! You can't leave us in suspense like that!" Kiba said, lightly punching the hyperactive ninja. Naruto just groaned.
"Oh Kami! It was so hard! My whole body still hurts. Ero-Sennin woke me up every morning at 4:30, then we went on a 30 mile run! Then we did taijutsu training with heavy weights like Lee's for about 4 hours! By the time we finished it was about 9:00. after that we would do ninjutsu training until 2:00 then we'd break for lunch. After lunch we did genjutsu training for 3 hours but we stopped genjutsu training after the third week because I sucked at it, but at least there was one that I could do. After we stopped genjutsu training we split that time between taijutsu, ninjutsu, and kinjutsu." Naruto explained.
"He taught you kinjutsu?! Which ones did he teach you?!" Tsunade demanded, angry at the perverted sannin for the second time that day.
"Hee hee! There are some I think you'll recognize Tsunade Obaa-chan! I only learned eight of 'em. Let's see, I learned the shuriken Kage Bunshin no Jutsu, Tajuu Fujimi, Tajuu Rai Bunshin no Jutsu, Omote Renge, Ura Renge, Shiki Fuujin, and two of your favorites- the Infuuin Kai and the Souzou Saisei!" he exclaimed dramatically. Tsunade's eyes grew wide.
"You learned all of those?!" she asked him. He nodded his head vigorously.
"My friend, you have learned the Omote and the Ura Renge? Then are you also capable of forcing open the Celestial gates?" Lee asked his friend, his already large eyes growing larger when Naruto nods his head.
"How many gates can you open?" Neji asked.
"I can only open six of 'em." Naruto said seriously.
"You learned how to do my Infuuin Kai and my Souja Sousai justu?" Tsunade asked him, eyes still wide. Naruto nodded again.
"But where's your mark? I'm the only one who's ever been able to do it so I just assumed that the mark always just appeared on your forehead…" Tsunade told him.
"Oh, that. Mine's in the most ironic place." Naruto said with a smile. He stood up and lifted his coat and shirt. The girls blushed but they studied his stomach regardless.
"It's on your stomach. Big Deal." Kiba and Sakura said. He grinned at them.
"Just watch." He said. He then raised his chakra and the spiral began to appear on his stomach. However, the spiral weaved it's way around the diamond shaped seal so that the diamond was at the very center of the spiral.
"That is ironic." Choji said. Everyone nodded their heads and they launched into conversation again.
"So what's this Tajuu Rai Bunshin no Jutsu?" Shino asked quietly.
"It's a jutsu I made up when I went to Cloud. My Kage Bunshin are filled with electrical power so that even if you disspell them you'll get quite a shock." Naruto said matter of factly. Just then Teuchi set a large bowl of ramen before him.
"YES!! RAMEN! Itadakimasu!" he shouted before he started shoveling noodles into his mouth.
'Heh, same Naruto.' Everyone thought before they got their bowls as well. They all said 'Itadakimasu' together and began eating their food. Before they were even half way done Naruto moved on to another bowl that was set before him.
'I'm so happy. Some things never change.' Tsunade thought with a smile.
