well here is the next chapter, i dont really have much to say other then enjoy it.

i dont own naruto


A man was kneeling before someone on a throne, "Sir, out base in stone country has been destroyed. And everyone but myself eliminated." he said to the man in front of him.

"Completely destroyed? How can that be it had some of our best ninja there, the force must have been very large, I wonder how we did not detect such a large force? How many were there?" the man asked, or more of demanded.

The man gulped, "Umm, sir there w-was only o-one."

"Hmm, say that again, I thought I heard you say there was only one." the man said, hopeful that he had heard wrong.

"Y-yes sir, t-that's what I said." the man sputtered out.

"I see. Put all our bases on high alert, I don't want a repeat!" the leader said sharply.

"H-hai!" he said, then got up and walked out.

" I wonder what kind of shinobi could take out a base of that size alone, even with the element of surprise?" he tried to think of several ninja that had a grudge against him, but none were powerful enough to do such a thing, except one, but he disappeared years ago." he thought.

Naruto had found his clone and replaced it with himself. After another two days they had all the info they needed so they headed back to the village. The trip was long, uneventful, and boring for team seven.

When they arrived at the gate they were greeted by the gate guards, "Hello, back from your mission I see. How did it go?" Izumo asked.

"Oh, it went pretty well. We need to report to the Hokage, see ya." Kakashi said as they walked by.

When they arrived at the Hokage's office the secretary sent them in. "Ah Kakashi, I assume your mission went well?" he asked welcoming the break from the paperwork.

"Yes Hokage sama, all the info we collected is on this scroll." Kakashi said as he pulled out a scroll and set it on the sandaime's desk.

"Thank you Kakashi, give this to my secretary and she will pay you." Sarutobi said as he handed Kakashi a piece of paper.

"Hai Hokage sama." Kakashi said then turned around to leave, his team following. After collecting there pay and saying there goodbyes they went there separate ways.

After getting away from prying eyes Naruto released his henge, and shun shined into the Hokage's office. When he did Sarutobi motioned for the ANBU to leave, then activated the privacy seals. "So Naruto, how did your mission go?" he asked in a business tone of voice.

"It went well, I managed to eliminate all of the occupants in the building, as well as the leader." Naruto replied.

"I assume you have evidence ?" Naruto nodded, then reached up onto his upped arm and channeled a little chakra and out popped a scroll.

"This is the leaders head." Naruto said as he set the scroll down on the desk.

"Very good Naruto, what about any evidence in the building." Sarutobi asked casually.

"Naruto smirked in a destructive way, "Destroyed."

Sarutobi wondered if he really needed to know the answer to this question, "You mean all the evidence?"

"Nope, the whole building." Naruto said with the same smirk on his face.

Sarutobi sighed, "Was that really necessary Naruto?" he asked tiredly. He really hoped Naruto hadn't destroyed an entire building.

"Well no, but it was a condemned building, so I figured I was doing the town a favor by destroying it for them." Naruto said smiling.

"Well I guess since it was condemned its ok. Well here is your pay." Sarutobi said as he handed Naruto a scroll with money sealed inside it.

"Thanks old man, see ya later." Naruto said, then shunshined out.

Sarutobi smiled, at least some of the Naruto he remembered was still there, underneath the battle hardened ninja that he appeared to be. Like the prank at the restaurant a while back, while he didn't have any evidence, he was positive it was Naruto. Even though he was all grown up, he was still Naruto.

Naruto was walking down the street trying to decide what to do when Ino and Sakura walked up to him, "Hey Naruto." Sakura said. Turning to walk beside him.

"Oh, a hey Sakura, Ino, whats up?" he replied.

"Well, the rookie nine is having a little get together at that new restaurant they just opened, umm whats it called?" Ino said then looked to Sakura. "Idashi's." Sakura said. "Right, Idashi's, and it wouldn't be the rookie nine without you, we've already got everyone else to come, except for you and Sasuke." Ino finished.

Naruto thought about it for a little while, he didn't really have anything else to do, "Sure, sounds fun, when is it?"

"It's tonight at seven." Sakura said.

"Ok, cool I'll see you there." Naruto said smiling then turned and headed off towards….wherever it is he goes.

Later that day, 6:30.

Choji, Hinata, Shino, Kiba, and Shikamaru were already at the restaurant and had pulled together a couple tables. "So, do you think Ino and Sakura got Naruto and sasuke to come?" Choji asked between mouthfulls of potato chips.

"I so, it wouldn't be the rookie nin without Sasuke." said a voice from the door. They all looked up and saw Naruto.

"Hey Naruto glad you could make!" Choji greeted.

"Hey Choji, Shino, Hinata, shika, Kiba. Akamaru" Naruto replied. Receiving a nod from Shino, and blush and a small wave from Hinata, a snore from Shikamaru. A bark from Akamaru.

And a, "Hey Naruto, how's those D-rank missions, I hated em but since our team has me on it, we started doing C-rank about a week ago. But you know, I don't expect ya'lls team to be doing them already." Kiba said proudly.

"Well, actually we have been out on a C-rank mission for the past two weeks, just got back today." Naruto said with a smirk, this was sure to get Kiba riled up.

"What, no way. Why did you get a C-rank so early?" Kiba nearly wined.

"Well, it could be cause we're just that awesome." Naruto replied a she sat down next to the sleeping Shikamaru.

Kiba just huffed in annoyance. Akamaru started licking his hand to cheer him, "Hey boy, its ok." Kiba said as he patted his dog on the head.

"So, what has everyone been doing since you graduated?" Naruto asked. They started to answer. But then they all looked up and saw Sasuke walk in with Ino and Sakura on each side of him.

"Hey Sasuke, glad you made it!" Naruto said when he saw them.

Sasuke started to reply with a grunt, but didn't "Hey everyone." Sasuke said with a small smile, but it was a smile none the less. As the three of them sat down.

"So, as I was saying, what has everyone been doing?" Naruto restated his question.

"Well, aside from missions, I've increased the size I can make myself with my expansion jutsu." Choji said still eating.

"I've been working on a new jutsu with Akamaru, it's going to be way powerful!" Kiba said enthusiastically.

"What about you sasuke?" Naruto asked.

Sasuke gave him a look of annoyance, "Well I have been working on a new fire jutsu, but it's a long from being complete." Sasuke said with actually a little modesty.

They would of continued but the waiter came by, "Excuse me, but are you ready to order?"

"Yes I think we are." after ordering there food, they continued talking.

"Hey, I've got an idea." Naruto started.

"Oh, be careful don't strain your brain." Kiba said playfully, although no one was laughing. "Come one guys, why arent you laughing? It was funny." Kiba said. But was receiving bad looks from everyone, even Shino, and he could never tell what Shino's facial expression was.

While they were surprised at what Kiba said, they were even more surprised by who spoke up, "No, Kiba it wasn't funny, how would you feel if someone had said it to you? Or maybe even if it didn't bother you, what if someone said something bad about Akamaru?" Sasuke said, and even though he wasn't talking very loud, his voice was dead serious.

"I would kick there…" Kiba started but then realized what he had done. "Hey Naruto, sorry man, I didn't mean it like that." he said apologetically.

"I know you didn't, its alright just don't do it again." Naruto forgave Kiba.

Kiba smiled, "I wont, trust me. So what were you saying?" he asked.

"Oh right, I was say that after we eat maybe we can go to a training ground and show off our new moves?" he asked as the waiter sat there food down.

"Sounds like fun." Kiba said "Yea I think we should." Sakura replied. Everyone else agreed as well.

After finishing there meal while making idle talk they all got up and went to training ground 10.

"So, who wants to go first?"

"I will." shoji replied to Ino. He stepped out away from the group "Partial expansion jutsu!" he said and his arm grew so large his hand was wider then anyone was tall. After smashing a few trees he released the jutsu.

"That was awesome Choji!" Sakura replied.

"Why don't you go next forehead?" Ino said to Sakura. Sakura looked uneasy for a second but then nodded. "Sure why not?"

Sakura stepped out. "But I'm going to need some help from someone." Sakura said. Naruto walked out, "So what do I need to do?" he asked.

"Just stand there." she replied, Naruto shrugged and did just that. Sakura went through a fairly long sequence of handsigns then said, "Pit of darkness." to everyone else nothing happened, but Naruto's world turned immediately black.

"Sakura what did you do to him?" Choji asked.

"I put a genjutsu on him, right now all he sees is black, and he cant hear anything." Sakura said proudly.

"Wow, that's actually pretty good bill bored brow." Ino said. Sakura ignored the comment about her forehead. "Thanks Ino."

While this was going on outside Naruto was examining the genjutsu, he couldn't see, and he also couldn't hear, it had taken effect almost immediately. "Hmm, this seems to be a relatively complex genjutsu, and it seems to require minimal chakra once it is in place. From what I remember this a chuunin level genjutsu, she will probably turn out to be the next genjutsu mistress of Konoha." Naruto thought to himself.

He then formed a handsign and said "Kai." nothing happened. He forced a larger amount of chakra through his system "Kai!" nothing happened. "That should of broken any low chuunin level jutsu, which means she has this down perfect." Naruto thought.

Outside Sakura released the genjutsu, "Wow Sakura, that was cool." Naruto praised her. She smiled, "Thanks Naruto."

"So, who wants to go next?" Naruto said as he walked back to the group. "How about you dobe." Sasuke said.

"yea lets see what you have up your sleeve." Choji said. Naruto nodded and walked back away from the group.

He thought for a second, "What should I do, I have hundreds of jutsu at my disposal but most of them would blow my cover." Naruto thought to himself. Then finally decided on a C-rank ninjutsu.

He went through the handsigns, "Lightningstyle blade." he said then aimed his hand at the sky and brought it down, following it a little ways in the distance was a bolt of lightning, as his hand stopped, pointing at a training post, the lightning post struck it. But to every ones amazement it didn't burn, or char it, it simply spit it in half, like a blade.

"Hm, not bad dobe, my turn." Sasuke said.

Naruto nodded and walked back towards the group as Sasuke walked away.

Sasuke did a few handsigns "Lightningstyle lightning strike!" he said then extended his hand towards a training post and a ball of lightning formed in his hand, after a few seconds of charging it shot towards the post, and it hit dead center, but it didn't stop, it went through several trees before dissipating.

Sasuke smirked, that was actually the best he had ever performed that jutsu. "not bad Sasuke, actually pretty good." Naruto said with a smirk.

"So who's next? I know how about you Shino?" Kiba said. Shino just nodded and made his way a few feet from the group.

He concentrated his chakra then held his hand forward "Ninja art insect spears." he said as insects poured form his body and formed into spears then shot towards a tree, going straight through it. Shino then called his bugs back to him.

"That was pretty cool Shino, not really flashy but effective. I like how you also didn't use much chakra." Naruto said.

Shino turned to Naruto, most peopled were scared by his bugs, or at least a little creeped out even when they were used in a technique, but Naruto didn't seem bothered at all, "Thank you Naruto, it means more then you know." Shino said, although only Naruto heard it.

Naruto smiled, "I hope he doesn't end up like he did before, he was nearly an outcast because no one liked his bugs, he deserves better." Naruto thought to himself.

"I guess I'm next, might as well get it over with, troublesome." Shikamaru said as he walked out.

He made a handsign and his shadow made its way over to a training post, "Shadow stitching jutsu!" he said and his shadow split apart into several smaller strands, which each went through the training post and back into the ground. If it were a real person, they would be pinned in place, and would have several puncture wounds.

As soon as he released the handsign his shadow retracted back to him. "Cool shika." Choji said as he walked back. "thanks Choji.

"Well I guess its my turn!" Ino said as she made her way out. While most of her family jutsu provided no visible affect, she had a few non clan jutsu that did. "Waterstyle water cannon." she said and water from the nearby pond formed into a large ball of water, as big around as she was tall. Then it shot into the woods, breaking down a few trees. She turned around and smiled, even if she was a little tired. "That was good Ino." Naruto said as she walked by.

She pretty much ignored him and went straight to Sasuke, "Soo, Sasuke what do you think?" she drawled out refering to both herself and the technique. Sasuke looked at her, "For the technique, it was great, but you need to lose the fangirlism, its going to get you killed." sasuke said coldly.

Ino deflated and walked back and stood beside Sakura. Even though she didn't want to admit it, she was a fan girl, and a big one at that. Even Sakura had quit being such a fan girl. And she bet that if they were to fight right now, she would probably lose. "I cant be weak, I will be stronger then Sakura." Ino thought with conviction, she intended to stop being such a fan girl, and train more.

"Well, it looks like you're the last one Hinata, your turn." Naruto said with a smile.

Hinata smiled and nodded, "Right, my turn." No blush, well maybe a small one, and no stutter. Ever since her father had stopped berating her, she had been gaining confidence, along with the fact she was getting stronger with her fathers training.

She was still shy, but she was making progress. As she approached a training post she slid into the jyuuken stance, although she didn't bother activating her byakugan as it wasn't a person. She then started striking, "Two palm, four palm, eight palm, sixteen palm, thirty two palm, sixty four palm!" she said then on the last strike sent a double palm strike to the center of the pole, along with a larger burst of chakra then would normally be required were she facing a person.

When she hit it the post went flying, Hinata then disappeared and reappeared above the post before if had moved a few feet, and sent another strike into it, sending it plowing into the ground. When she landed she went to one knee panting.

Naruto saw that it wasn't raw speed in which she moved to get above the post, but an altered version of the shunshin. It used much less chakra, but it had a shorter range, but for what she used it for, it was perfect.

Naruto ran over to where Hinata was crouched and helped her up, "Are you ok Hinata?" he asked.

She nodded, "Yes, I'm fine thank you Naruto." she replied with a blush.
