Chapter 3: Kage Bushin and Training

Hey this is God of the Maelstrom here. I appreciate the reviews you sent. Now to answer one review question, Yes Naruto will learn Kage Bushin but will not be able to use it to the extent that he does in Cannon. Thats it! Enjoy Chapter 3. ( Also send me some ideas on character relationships you want to see)

Namikaze Training Ground-5 more months later

It has been 5 months since both Kasumi and Naruto unlocked their chakra.

" Naruto keep you elbows bent, and Kasumi move you right leg forward a little" said Minato Namikaze as he began teaching his two children the Namikaze fighting style or also know as the Hummingbird Style. It required great amounts of speed and you use that speed to quickly attack your enemy. The single attacks aren't meant to do great amounts of damage. It is more like that you will be seemingly be attacking from all sides using your speed, confusing your enemy, and that damage will add up0.

"Good job Naruto, you have the basic katas down, now try to start the more difficult katas. Kasumi I'll help you with the beginning one." Said Minato. Minato also thought ' It seems that Kasumi has a lot of trouble with this style. Hmm, she is more flexible than Naruto and I can bet she has the water affinity. Maybe the Uzumaki Clan Style would be better suited towards her than this one. I'll have to ask Kushina later' He continued training his children.

Later that day

While the twins were resting, Minato decided to ask his wife something. " Kushina, do you think that you could train Kasumi in the Uzumaki Clan Style since I think she will do better in it.

" Maybe, but I thought she was learning your fighting style." asked Kushina.

" She is but it seems she is having trouble with my style and I thought she would be better suited toward your clans. "

" I guess I can" replied Kushina .

The next day at the Training Field

Minato and Kushina were there explaining there plan to Kasumi and Naruto.

" So I have to learn from Kaa-san since you think the Uzumaki Clan Style is better for me" asked Kasumi

" That sums it up Kasumi-chan" said Minato.

" So Tou-san, does that mean that you will be only training me" said a quiet Naruto.

" Actually, Naruto, you will be training with Jiraiya-Sensei since I've already taken a long enough vacation. I have to go back to work" said Minato. As if on cue, Jiraiya shunshined into the training grounds. He then motioned for Naruto to follow him as he left the training grounds.

" So Kaa-san, do we start training now" asked Kasumi.

" Actually, I want to teach you a jutsu first. It's called Kage Bushin" said Kushina

" Really a jutsu, your already better than Tou-san" said an excited Kasumi

Kushina just smiled at this and showed her the handseals while explaining the mechanics of the Jutsu.

Clearing in the woods near training ground with Jiraiya and Naruto.

" So Sensei, what will you be teaching me" asked Naruto

" Actually I need to tell you something first. As you should know, I am Konoha's spymaster meaning I have to travel a lot. I haven't gotten out of the village lately so I will need to leave soon. Since I am your sensei though, I was wondering if you wanted to go with me" asked Jiraiya.

" So a training trip" asked Naruto

" Yep" replied Jiraiya

" But for how long" asked Naruto

" It should be for at least 5 years"

" WHAT, 5 years, I'll be eleven by then" said a surprised Naruto.

" On a training trip, 5 years isn;t very long" said Jiraiya.

" I'll have to think about it" said Naruto

" Go back to your home and think about it but I will be leaving in one week, if you are coming, meet me at the Main Gate in one weak." Said Jiraiya

" Okay" said Naruto as Jiraiya Shunshined out.

Naruto went home with a lot on his mind. ' Should I take the deal and go with Jiraiya'?
