Chapter 10- Jonin meeting
"It's been about a month since I have seen Tsunade, I had avoided her for about a week after we had sex until she was sent to a battle field somewhere in grass village" Naruto thought as he grabbed Nawaki by his arm flinging him into Shisui who had tried sneaking up on him. They didn't react in time as Nawaki collided with him sending them both to the ground. Naruto watched on completely ignoring Kushina's incoming attack for the moment. Team five was in training ground five training. The training ground looked to be in a mess from the blown over trees to the small craters here and their.
For around a month he kept his team in tip top shape training them every time they were free and not out on missions. In the month they trained he guessed that they were now around chunin level or awfully close anyway. He was broken out of his thoughts as Kushina's fist collided with his gut making him grin.
"So close Kushina-chan" He said as he glowed white before exploding. Lucky for her because she had been expecting it, got back out of range in time but moments later was met with a fist to her face sending her sailing across the clearing until caught by Shisui mid flight placing her back on her feet.
All three of his genin improved greatly, he was very proud of them for how far they came in such little time but he would never voice it to much because to much praise is a bad thing.
"You guys improved by quite a bit but you still got a long ways to go before you can land any hits on me" He said smirking. The reactions on their faces were priceless especially Nawaki and Kushina's because they were pissed. They would not charge though because they had done that before and learned not to charge blindly into a fight with out a plan.
"I am going to beat you into the ground someday, you can count on it" Kushina shouted pumping her fist into the air. Naruto was about to comment on her statement before he felt a chakra signature making him unsheathe his katana quickly turning around slicing a clone of Kushina straight through the gut. He watched for a second as the clone went up in a plume of smoke before turning back around to face his team but all he noticed were three plumes of smoke were his team use to be.
"They are definitely better then before, the change they went through is clearly visible" He thought. He looked around the clearing already knowing were they were hiding but did not want to alert them to it yet because he wanted to give them time to prepare something.
"What should we do Shisui" Nawaki asked. They were huddled up in a tree a good distance away from Naruto to give them enough time to come up with a plan. Shisui did not answer right away opting to look in the direction their sensei could still be felt in the clearing. Unknown to them however Naruto was leaning up against the tree they were currently perched in.
"Let's see what they come up with" Naruto thought looking up at his team from his position. Thirty seconds later his team were still up in the tree planning so he decided to make his move. He disappeared reappearing in the middle of team five kicking Kushina straight in the face sending her flying just as he swung his left fist hitting Nawaki in the side of the face as his right arm hit Shisui in the side of the head sending each of them in multiple directions.
"Heh looks like they didn't see that one coming" Naruto thought. His train of thoughts were cut off as the three genin of team five lit white indicating they were exploding clones making a huge smirk appear on his face.
"Their using the techniques I taught them wisely, I would never have guessed they got this down already. I only gave them this jutsu last week to learn" Naruto thought disappearing out of sight just as the explosion rocketed the clearing he once stood. He appeared a good distance away perched on a high tree.
"Now were are they" He said to himself. Just as he finished his sentence kunai shot at him from multiple directions and when they were about ten feet away they multiplied twenty times leaving no way for any normal chunin to escape.
He was not no chunin though as a grin stretched his face as his arms rose up palms facing opposite directions.
"Shinra Tensai" Naruto shouted as the kunai were deflected sending them back in the directions they had come. When he sent them back, he threw in a couple of exploding tags as presents.
"Shit" Kushina thought. The same thought was passing through the genin as the kunai were sent back at them. They tried jumping away before the kunai could reach but they had been thrown their way twice as fast so they shunshined away from their position leaving a chakra signature in it's wake as more trees were blown back by an explosion.
"Damn it how are we going to land a good solid hit on him" Kushina shouted frustrated. She had found out about Naruto and Tsunade just as the rest of the team had but she was furious. She didn't know why but she felt horrible when she found out about it. Nawaki and Shisui looked towards her as multiple emotions passed her face. They were currently huddled up in a thick part of the forest but the thing was Kushina was the only real one their the other two were clones.
"Calm down Kushina, we all know you have a crush on sensei and finding out that he had sex with my sister made you mad just as I had been. Their not dating, my sister told me straight up that he liked someone else maybe it's you" Nawaki stated.
Kushina blushed red by his statement but it quickly went back to a scowl.
"I'm not going to forgive him that easily, I need to get him back first" Kushina shouted. Nawaki and Shisui opted to shut up because they did not want to ensue the wrath of Kushina.
"I think we should trap sensei from all directions then fire one jutsu each, that should at least do some damage" Shisui said. The rest of the team agreed only because nothing else could be thought of. The two clones vanished as team five began to surround Naruto from all sides.
"I think I will just stand here to see what they have planned with the time I gave them" He thought.
Kushina appeared on his right a good distance away going through hand signs just as Nawaki and Shisui appeared a good distance away in different set positions around him.
"Doton: Giant Boulder, Suiton: Jet stream, Fire style: Phoenix Flower jutsu" his genin shouted as they launched their jutsu at him. He waited as the techniques got closer, he wanted to make them believe they had gotten him.
"Yes we finally got him" Nawaki thought. Kushina had the same thought going through her head while Shisui thought otherwise.
Just as the attacks hit they began evaporating before their very eyes as their most power attacks at the moment were gone in a flash leaving no trace behind that their ever was an attack to begin with.
"No way, how the hell did you do that" Nawaki shouted. Their jutsu hit but it left no damage at all which was almost impossible.
"I absorbed the chakra that you used to form the jutsu leaving the technique invalid and not able to complete its task" Naruto said smirking because of the smart answer he had replied with trying to tick them off.
It did the trick as a water dragon came at him from Kushina but just as before the water technique vanished before their very eyes.
"Come on Kushina is that the best you got, you guys should be able to hit me at least once by now" Naruto said. Kushina got pissed forming another hand sign as the clearing was filled with around twenty clones.
"Shut up, I am going to kick your ass" She shouted clearly angry. The clones charged as he dropped into a stance to fend them off but before he could start to destroy them they glowed white.
"Shit that's a little over board their will be nothing left of the forest if I let them go off" Naruto thought quickly going through hand signs himself slamming them on the ground forming a thick and dense rock dome around them just as the explosion went off. The dome held for the most part until a couple seconds later when the jutsu began to chip away due to the intense explosion. After the explosion ended the rock dome no longer stood but damage to the forest was minimal.
"That was reckless, what the hell were you thinking" He shouted. He vanished out of sight as he appeared in front of Kushina with a ticked off look on his face. If that explosion had went off her team mates most likely would not have made it out alive. He saw the sad look plastered on her face understanding that she knew that she should not have done what she had. He clamed down a moment later not wanting to yell more then he had already.
"Just don't do it again, if I wasn't here your team mates would not have made it out alive so be careful" Naruto said. Kushina nodded her head but did not respond straight out. He knew she wouldn't because she hadn't really spoken to him when the team had found out about him and Tsunade.
"I wish she would at least speak to me directly" Naruto thought sighing. It was different with out her usual shouts about his teasing so he decided to try it out but before he could Kushina spoke up which surprised him.
"Why did you and Tsunade sleep together" Kushina asked with a light blush adorning her face. She was pissed but she also wanted a viable answer from him. It hurt her knowing that Naruto had been with someone in that way.
"It doesn't matter, me and her are not dating so that doesn't matter" He responded not really caring for how the words came out. Kushina's face turned from a light blush to a scowl in under a second.
"It does matter" Kushina shouted. Inside her head she was questioning herself on why she just yelled at him but couldn't find an answer.
"No it doesn't, it was a one time thing so don't worry about it" He said. Kushina's right hand came at him smacking him on the right cheek as tears began falling from her eyes. She vanished in a shunshin a moment later with out speaking a word. His eyes widened not expecting for Kushina to cry or act like that.
"I guess I said something wrong so I better go look for her" Naruto said. Right before he was going to leave however a bird began soaring above in circles making him sigh at not being able to search for Kushina right now. He put his arm straight out as the bird landed on his arm. He retrieved the message that was in it's claws as the bird flew away.
"So their's a jonin meeting in twenty minutes" Naruto thought staring at the piece of paper intertwined in his fingers. He was broken out of his thought as Nawaki and Shisui landed next to him.
"I guess the team lunch I had planned won't be happening now because of two reasons, Kushina isn't here and I have a meeting to go to" He said to them as he turned to face them.
"It's ok I got to go anyway sensei, my sister should be back by now" Nawaki stated vanishing in a shunshin. Shisui stayed however making him wonder for a moment why he was still their until an answer was given to him.
"My family is gathering together with close relatives and they wanted to know if you could come so that they could meet you" Shisui asked.
"Sure what time and what place" Naruto asked. He guessed most of the people their were going to be uchiha so it was bound to be one heck of a night.
"It's set for eight o clock tonight at the main uchiha compound. Do you know where that is" Shisui asked.
"Yeah I know were it is at, so I will see you later" He said vanishing with out a trace a moment later heading towards the meeting room hoping to not run into Tsunade on the way or during the meeting.
Once he got to the meeting room, he noticed not many people were in the room so he toke a seat to the far left of the chairs and tables provided. People began entering the room as the hokage and his advisors took their places in the big desk in the front of the room. He paid no heed to them however because his mind was on Kushina and how upset she had been.
"I have to make it up to her once I find her after this meeting" Naruto thought. The room was starting to fill up with jonin some where newly promoted while others were veterans.
Naruto was patted on his shoulder breaking him out of his thoughts. He turned his head slightly noticing that it was Jiraiya.
"You know you are one lucky son of a bitch for what you did with Tsunade. Every man in the world would have wanted to be in your place at that moment especially me" Jiraiya said sitting down next to him.
"I guess but it was only one time, I have another girl that I like" He replied. Jiraiya nodded in understanding getting some of the details to what happened.
"So how was she in bed" Jiraiya asked. He always wanted to know what it would be like to sleep with Tsunade. Naruto was about to answer but a fist to the back of Jiraiya's head sent his face straight down into the desk he sat at leaving an imprint in the hard wood.
Naruto looked on wide eyed as Tsunade lifted him up out of his chair threatening him, that if he spoke another word of the event she would throttle him making him nod his head in fear as she placed him back in his seat. She turned and looked Naruto right in the eyes as she gained a light blush on her face.
"Hey Tsunade how have you been" He asked her breaking her out of her thoughts.
"I'm doing good besides being tired from just getting back from a mission, now having to sit through a meeting on top of it. Good thing I have something to bring up in the meeting so I hope you support it with me" Tsunade replied smiling.
"Sure what ever it is must be a good idea if your so sure of it yourself" He said.
"Thanks it will really help if I get more support" Tsunade said as she leaned forward giving him a quick kiss on the lips. She knew they probably would never date so she wanted at least one last kiss before she gave up. She walked away missing the sexual comment by Jiraiya.
The meeting began moments later as they began discussing issues pertaining to the academy as well as the teams in general so that they could build new teams pertaining to better quality.
About an hour later Naruto had his head down on the desk starting to fall asleep from how boring the meeting was. Most of the issues presented were good but had major holes.
"Are their any other issues that the jonin would like to put out" Sarutobi the third hokage asked as his advisors were busy looking over forms for the other proposals well the ones that were accepted anyway.
Naruto lifted his head when to look around the room until his eyes fell on Tsunade who stood up out of her chair.
"Yes I have a proposal for a way the teams could be set up to save more lives" Tsunade replied. Some ninja looked at her interested in what she had to stay. Naruto knew what she was going to propose so he would make sure to get her point across to the people in the room.
"Ok, tell us your idea then Tsunade" Koharu said. The advisors looked on interested while the hokage already was given a quick go through from her before the meeting had began.
"We should place a medic ninja on each genin team and build a school where genin could go to become medic ninja. It would help save lives while in Konoha as well as in the field when someone got hurt. Our shinobi force will lose less ninja's this way" Tsunade said in a matter of fact tone making sure she sounded confident the whole time in her idea.
The jonin around them agreed with the idea but they thought that they could not afford a medic school and having a medic on a team would lower the offensive abilities of a team.
"That sounds like a decent idea but a medic school would cost too much of our budget and we need that money for other things. Placing a medic on each genin team would help save lives but where are we going to get that many field medics" Homura replied. The idea in itself was good but the amount of time to create this would be to much.
"Money is the least of your worries if we lose most of our shinobi to this war, we need more medics to save the lives of many" Tsunade shouted. She was getting furious, the ups to her proposal were far greater then the downs to it.
"I'm sorry Tsunade but we don't have the resources at the mome-" Koharu was cut off as a light blue haired guy stood up from further back in the crowd of jonin in the room.
"It's a good idea, my sister died in this war, if her team had a medic in the field she would have lived instead of bleeding to death" Dan said. The idea was good, this plan could possibly change all aspects of a team saving many ninja who would have died other wise.
"We are sorry for you lose but at the moment we can not put this plan in motion" Homura stated.
"Don't apologize to me and instead actually do something for the ninja in the field besides sitting on your lazy asses all day. This plan could save hundreds but you don't see that, you only see the amount of money you have to spend for it" Dan shouted. Tsunade turned her head looking at him with wide eyes not expecting anyone to stand up for her like that.
"The money is needed for supplies and ninja equipment, these essentials are needed more then field medics" Koharu shouted back but was silenced a second later by a hand gesture by the sandaime hokage telling her to sit down which she did.
"I believe this is a good idea as well" Naruto stated having enough of the argument ensuing in front of him. He stood up behind the desk he was at. Tsunade and Dan looked in his direction.
"Well the plan is not being put into action, so if you have a better idea we would hear that instead" Homura said.
"Too bad it's about the same plan. The plan will save many so even if you don't put this plan into action, during my team's training tomorrow I am going to bring up medic jutsu to Kushina and if she wants to learn it after finding out the benefits then I will teach her" Naruto replied. This shocked everyone in the room, mostly the advisors.
"You need to train them to fight so that they could be ready for actual combat especially Kushina since she has the Kyuubi sealed in her" Koharu shouted back.
"I am training them but I am adding this to their training regimen starting tomorrow" He said not backing down by the furious look sent his way by the two advisors. The hokage just looked at him curious by the development happening before him. Jiraiya smiled up at him from his position as he stood up alongside Naruto shocking the room even more.
"I will teach my students medical jutsu as well even if this is disapproved of because I can see the great benefits that are provided by this" Jiraiya stated. Soon everyone started to stand up announcing that they would do the same so in the end they passed Tsunade's idea. They would start making the medic school in a week.
They began discussing other issues as the time went by. It got dark out but the meeting was still going on. About an hour later no more topics were presented so the meeting started to come to a close.
"The meeting is over, the issues that were passed today will be set in place in two weeks or less" The sandaime stated as he got up with his advisors leaving the room. Most jonin began to leave the room, Naruto being one of them but he was quickly stopped by Tsunade who stood in his path.
"Thanks, for helping me, they probably would never have passed my idea if you hadn't stuck up for it" Tsunade said smiling.
"You should thank Dan and Jiraiya as well, they helped start that little movement in the meeting" He replied. Jiraiya walked up at that moment catching everything that was said.
"I don't need to be thanked" Jiraiya stated but was quickly hugged by Tsunade anyway enjoying every minute of it, though not displaying much of what he felt.
She released the hug as Jiraiya left heading home for the night. Just as Naruto and Tsunade began to head their separate ways Dan walked up to Tsunade introducing himself.
"Thanks Dan for your help in getting my plan set into action" She said. Dan smiled at the show of gratitude as she hugged him.
"Don't worry about it, I did what I thought best but I was wondering would you like to get something to eat" Dan asked. She thought about it for a minute as she watched Naruto's retreating form.
"Sure why not, I am in a good mood" She said grabbing him by his hand dragging him to the local bar for a drink and some food.
Naruto smirked watching as Tsunade dragged Dan down the street.
"So it begins, I am going to have to safe Dan when the time comes but I will make sure he does not die" He thought vanishing out of sight. He was now going to Kushina's house because more then likely she was their. It was seven o clock so he had an hour until he had to meet up with Shisui for dinner at the main uchiha compound.
He appeared in the living room of Kushina's apartment, all the lights were off in the room along with the kitchen but he had not checked her room yet so he walked to her room door turning the knob but found out it was locked.
"Kushina are you their" Naruto asked. He got no response but he did not give up as he knocked again on the door.
"Come on Kushina open up if your in their, I need to speak with you" Naruto said hoping that she would answer.
"Go away, just leave me alone" Kushina said. He caught sadness by the sound of her voice so he did the only thing that came to mind at the time. He kicked the door in seeing the room just as dark as the rest of the house. Kushina shot up in a sitting position right when her door flung open revealing Naruto.
"What the hell are you doing" Kushina shouted. She looked pissed as she stood up out of bed looking like she was about to kill him. He caught sight of the dried up tears on her face as well as fresh tears around her eyes.
He walked forward wrapping his arms around her waist as he pulled her into his chest. Her eyes widened not expecting anything like this to happen.
"Let me go" Kushina shouted. If he looked down at her face in that moment he would have caught sight of more tears falling.
"No, not until you forgive me. The reason me and Tsunade did what we did was because she was in love with me while I was not. She did not care deciding to just go through with it anyway but I liked someone else which Tsunade had guessed" Naruto explained. Kushina was still a little sad and angry with him but she felt better that he explained a little but when Naruto said he liked someone else it caught her attention right away.
"Who do you like" Kushina asked as she looked up at him still in his embrace. He smirked at the innocent question not really wanting to answer so he decided to tease her.
"Not telling Kushina-channnn, maybe I will tell you one day" He replied getting hit on the chest lightly by Kushina. He lifted his right arm from around her to her hair as he intertwined his fingers in her hair brushing it smoothly gaining a dark red blush on her face.
"Your hair gets more beautiful everyday" He whispered in her ear. He knew he was slowly falling for her as well but he did not love her yet. After a minute of holding her he realized something two mounds were pushing into his shirt so he pulled back away from Kushina looking at her. She had red panties on along with a see through night gown that got him feeling very hot. Kushina just looked at him confused until she looked down at herself seeing what she was wearing squealing out making Naruto turn around as she got back into bed under the covers with another blush sporting her face
Naruto left a little while later after talking with her for a bit on a couple things. Kushina went to bed early feeling tired as crap from the emotions that had raged inside her.
He quickly went to his apartment changing into his high collared black shirt along with the cargo pants and the Magatama necklace. He liked these clothes better then his ninja ones so he was still deciding if he should wear these instead.
When he reached the uchiha district, the guards had let him in with no trouble due to being told that the head of the clan was expecting him for dinner.
"The uchiha district is much different now then in the future" Naruto thought. He was broken out of his thoughts as the main compound was coming up on his left. When he reached the place stopping in front of the door as he began to knock. He waited for a couple seconds until the door finally began to open.
"Sorry to keep you waiting but I was busy cooking" a dark haired uchiha women answered the door allowing him entrance. He shut the door behind him as he looked at the women.
"Where is everyone else" He asked.
"Oh they are out back sparring, if you would like you can go join them. My son Shisui is out their with Fugaku and Mikoto" the women replied happily.
"Thanks, I think I will do that but what is your name" Naruto asked.
"The name is Uchiha Seya and what is yours" Seya asked curiously to the man before her.
"My name is Uzumaki Naruto but don't tell anyone this just yet, no one knows my real name" he replied. He knew she might spread it which he hoped she did to make rumors start popping up. He has a reason for this but no one will know what it is.
"You're an Uzumaki, is that why you were placed on a team with Kushina" Seya asked.
"No, the reason I was placed on her team was because I asked the Uzukage if I could teach her. The reason he let me teach her was because I saved the Whirlpool village from destruction. He doesn't even know I am an Uzumaki" Naruto said as he walked out the back door.
He spotted a couple uchiha who were fighting, Shisui was fighting an older kid that looked like Sasuke's father which it probably was. Shisui spotted him stopping him in mid swing as he walked over to him.
"Hey sensei, you're a little early" Shisui asked. Naruto nodded as he explained that he made up with Kushina and about the meeting that went on. Shisui was a good person to talk to, a level headed not stuck up uchiha which made him happy to be his teacher.
"That's good sensei, dinner won't be for another twenty minutes though" Shisui stated. Naruto was about to reply until an older guy walked up alongside Shisui placing a hand on his shoulder.
"So this is your sensei Shisui, the name is Uchiha Yorin it's nice to meet you" Yorin said shacking his hand.
"It's nice to meet you too" Naruto replied.
"Shisui has told me how good you are at fighting so do you want to spar a bit before dinner is ready" Yorin asked. He wanted to fight this guy for sometime now since his son had been telling him the training they had went through with this guy.
"Sure, why not" He quickly accepted the challenge. They both walked into a huge opening in the back yard both getting into taijutsu. Naruto noticed the guy had not activated his sharingan which made him nod liking the guy already for only using his actual strength and not just his eyes.
"Your dad is going to kick your sensei's ass Shisui, he is one of the best ninja of the uchiha clan" Fugaku stated confidently. He had the complex that uchiha were better already in his head from a young age so their was no saving him.
"I don't know Fugaku I bet he will surprise you" Shisui said as he watched the intricate design fighting as the two collided head long in the center of the field. Yorin ducked under a fist before quickly following it up trying to sweep Naruto's legs from under him.
"Wow he is amazing" Mikoto said. She had meant the fighting but her mind was focused on Naruto's face as a light blush adorned her face watching at how graceful Naruto fought.
Yorin jumped back getting nipped in the gut by a kick before he started going through hand seals faster then most could see.
"Fire style: Karyu Endan" Yorin shouted as a dragon made of blazing fire shot forth at Naruto who could not move out of the way. Yorin was about to help him out until his fire dragon evaporated leaving nothing not even a scorch mark behind.
"How did you do that" Yorin asked. He was shocked, one of the best fire techniques was blocked completely.
"It's a secret, ninja must have secrets so I can't reveal anything" He replied. Yorin nodded in understanding as they got back to their spar.
Yorin shot forward intending to punch Naruto in the face but was met with a knee to the gut doubling him over before a foot collided with his face sending him into a tree across the clearing going up in a plume of smoke. Naruto ducked under a punch from Yorin but was met with a kick to the back sending him sliding across the ground. Yorin charged forward trying to follow it up but Naruto glowed white making Yorin's eyes widen as the clone in front of him exploded, he Kawaried the second before the explosion hit him but a newly formed crater was left in the clone's wake.
Everyone in a one hundred foot radius felt the ground shake.
"Holy shit" Fugaku shouted. Shisui began to boast that he got a way better sensei then he had which was true. Mikoto was lost in her own feelings, she had a crush on Naruto before now her feelings for him kept growing because she now knew he could protect her. From any harm if need be.
"I think that's good enough for now, if we don't stop the house might be next" Yorin stated laughing lightly at the amount of damage that had been done in such little time. Naruto nodded as he rose out of the ground a good distance away.
They headed in for dinner, they discussed many things as they ate. Shisui sat to his right as Mikoto sat to his left. An hour passed but they were still not done talking until a topic came up.
"Do you have a dojutsu" Fugaku asked.
"Yep but I am not telling anyone what it is so don't ask because it is something I want to stay hidden for now" He replied getting nods from the adults understanding. Mikoto turned her head slightly to get a peak at his face like she had been all night but she was caught by surprise as he turned his head facing her.
"What is it Mikoto" Naruto asked.
"Do you have a girlfriend" Mikoto blurted out as a blush appeared on her face. The adults in the room chuckled at the obvious crush she had on Naruto.
"No, I don't think I do why?" Naruto asked as he looked in her eyes.
"No reason, I was just wondering" Mikoto said as she turned her head shyly away. Naruto chuckled thinking that she was very cute. After another twenty minutes of talking everyone decided to call it a night so Naruto walked towards the door but before he left he called Mikoto over to him.
"Why did you call me Naruto-kun" Mikoto asked. Naruto's eye brow raised at the suffixed but he ignored it as he leaned down kissing her deeply on the lips shocking her. He pulled back seconds later seeing Mikoto was to shocked to speak so he decided to enlighten her.
"Your really cute Mikoto but you are too young for me to date right now so when you get older how bout it" He asked her. Mikoto nodded her head dumbly while sporting a blush.
He vanished a moment later leaving no trace behind.
Mikoto touched her lips were she was kissed feeling warm all over from what Naruto had done.
"That felt amazing, I wish I could be with him now" Mikoto thought pouting because she really liked him.
Naruto appeared outside his apartment as he stared up at the glorious moon that stood out above anything else.
"I am like the moon, I shine brightly giving off a light for all to follow. The world will be cleansed of this hatred once and for all" He whispered up at the moon.
He slowly walked into his apartment throwing off all his clothes besides his boxers as he slipped into bed.
"I am falling for Kushina but she is too young, so I have no choice but to wait, it's also the same with Mikoto but I don't know about her yet. It doesn't matter though for the moment as I have to come up with a plan to save Dan first" Naruto thought drifting off to sleep a moment later.
Hope you liked the chapter!
