Hello welcome to another chapter of Golden Embrace, before we start I wanted to say something that I forgot to say on the last chapter, I will be applying the use of time skip a lot until Naruto becomes genin and will make his genin time rather fast, as all the good things that I have planned start when he turns chuunin. Also Naruto will receive prior training to his academy years but nothing to serious, don't expect an overly strong Naruto.

./ Chapter 2 Training Years

./Time skip 2 Years; Ages: Naruto 10, Rookie Nine 8, Hanabi 6

It has been two years already science the one ANBU Uzuki Yuugao had decided to adopt the young Uzumaki Naruto from his prior life of suffering. With Yuugao's help Naruto had obtained a balanced diet resulting in an exponential growth sprout as the blond now was 1.35 meters tall also in the way of years Yuugao had presented Naruto to her best friends Yuhi Kurenai and Mitarashi Anko to who Naruto kindly referred as Crazy Snake Lady or Anko-chan or if he wanted to be humorous with her as Anko-Obasan (Aunt) which she hated as it made her feel old. He could remember the first time he called her that.

./Flashback no Jutsu

Naruto heard the doorbell rang and he went to open the door seeing that his new mother was busy with dinner. When he opened the door he saw a woman who is his young opinion was beautiful but not as much as his mother, the newcomer had a spiky purple hair tied in the pineapple fashion, she also had light brown eyes, and was wearing a mesh body suit that did nothing to hide her well developed bust, a deep orange skirt, a tan trench coat, and a shinobi forehead protector.

"Who are you?" he asked in a rowdy way.

"Hmm? Are you the gaki that Yugi-chan mentioned?" she said with a sinister grin. "You are a cutie and you surely know how to be lousy."

Felling slightly uneasy with the woman he turned his head and called "Kaa-chan there is a pretty obasan at the door who knows you." When he turned he saw the woman with the head down in a way that her hair shadowed her eyes and noticed a black aura around the woman. She quickly got behind him and tackled Naruto to the floor as she rested her body above him in a painfull and compromising position and just when Yuugao arrived at the scene she sweat dropped .

"Obasan? The sexy and mighty Mitarshi Anko is not an obasan, you better learn that gaki, you hear me?! She shouted prideful.

"Anko could you please move from on top of my son?" Yuugao deadpanned.

"A Yugi-chan, we were just getting to meet each other." She said with a playful grin as she removed herself from Naruto.

'Crazy woman' Naruto thought

./Flashback no Jutsu Kai

Naruto is seen walking with Yuugao in the shopping district when he asks her. "Kaa-san where are we going?" Yuugao turns to him and smiles knowing he will like what she is about to tell him.

"Well Anko and I talked and we decided that we are going to train you, we are going to a shinobi clothing shop to buy you some shinobi wearing and equipment for your training." At the revelations Naruto widened and started jumping around in circles.

"You are going to train me? Seriously? Great!" "What are you going to train me in?" Naruto asks causing Yuugao to smile at his son´s antics.

"I´m going to train you a little in the basics of chakra and kenjutsu and Anko is going to train you in taijutsu seeing that she is better, and maybe I will ask a college of mine from work to help to train you a bit in ninjutsu."

"Wow great I can't wait for the training to start!" Naruto said with a beaming smile.

'I bet it' Yuugao thought in the way to the shop.

./Shinobi Shop

As the two citizens of Konoha entered the shop the shopkeeper directeda glance toward the arrivals.

"A welcome back Uzuki-san." He said with a small smile. Then he turned his gaze towards Naruto and gave him a light smile. "And this is?" Of course he knew who Naruto was, everyone in the village knew who the demon spawn or as the ANBU liked to call him The Pranker King of Konoha was, however knowing better than most, he did not harbored any ill feelings against the blond.

Yuugao returned the smile. "Hello Murasane-san, this is my son Naruto-kun" Murasane was a retired ANBU who looking for a change of peace decided to open up a shinobi shop intended to meet the necessities of his fellow ANBU. "We came to buy the materials we need to start his training."

"Ahh, I see, then please take your time looking for what you need." Yuugao just nodded and moved into the store.

"Okay Naruto-kun first we need to buy you some shinobi clothing, I'll look into whatever I can find and let you choose, okay?"

"Hai, Kaa-chan" Yuugao smiled at his son and then proceeded to inspect the clothing, after some good fifteen minutes of waiting, she returned with various outfits for Naruto to pick. "Here, take a look and chose what you want" Naruto smiled widely at the various clothing items and immediately jumped to inspect them.

"Hmm, let's see, I want this…, and this, and this." He concluded with a happy smile. Yuugao almost wanted to sweat drop at the idea of someone being so excited at buying clothes, but thinking it better, he never had this opportunity before so it was understandable. Naruto's choice of clothes was deep blue ANBU like pants, black boots, a mesh shirt with a sleeveless gray shirt on top that conveniently sported the Uzumaki symbol at the back and a black overcoat.

"Nice that's quite a nice pick of cloth Naruto-kun, not very attention calling, plus looks cool and comfortable to wear."

"Yup."

"Ok then, let's get some kunais, a couple bandages and…" Naruto wasn't really paying attention, he was wandering through the store when his eyes fell upon a katana, with a red shed with iron decoration at both extremes of the shed, a curved red grip with iron adornments at the center and bottom with a dragon design and an iron hilt with a spiraling design. Naruto just stood there amazed at the beautiful katana; he was so mesmerized that he didn't even felt Murasane get right behind him.

"You like it kid?"

"Uhu"

"It is called 'Dragon Fang' it is a very old katana that is said to be forged with the fire of a dragon in a far away land."

"Wow."

"Indeed."

"What's going on here? I was looking for you Naruto-kun." Naruto instantly turned to his adoptive mother and hurriedly asked.

"Kaa-chan you said you were going to train me in kenjutsu right?"

"Yes that's right."

"Then can you please buy me that katana" he said pointing toward 'Dragon Fang' "Onegai (Please)" Yuugao casually gazed over to where Naruto was pointing and slightly widened her eyes as she identified the katana. 'That katana. Naruto-kun you certainly are special, only those who feel the call of that katana ever want to wield it, you have a great future ahead.

"Mmm, I'd like to, however that katana is a little bit too much, we will start with something easier" She said picking up another katana, this was a simple black katana that most ANBU used. "We will start with this and see how it goes."

"Hai, kaa-san" he didn't showed it but he was a bit sad that he couldn't get the sword, but thinking about everything that Yuugao had already done for him he shrugged it off. Yuugao paid for the items and both went home to call it a day.

./ Next Day Training Ground 7

An exited Naruto was standing in front of a calm Yuugao and a smirking Anko.

"Alright Naruto-kun is time to start your training." Said Yuugao.

"Hai Kaa-san"

"As decided we are going to teach in 3 areas, taijutsu, kenjutsu and chakra control, all of them are just going to be the basics. So with which area do you want to start with?" Naruto thought a little and then said.

"I want to start with Chakra control, then taijutsu and then kenjutsu.

"Aww, I wanted to have a shot at it first." Whined Anko causing Yuugao's eyebrow to twitch almost comically.

"Anko it doesn't matter who starts with the training both will teach him eventually. " To which Anko decided to stick out her tongue at Yuugao."

"Ok then let us begin Narut-kun" Said Yuugao dismissing Anko's immature display.

"Hai Kaa-san"

"Well first let's start explaining what chakra is" she said as she sat on the ground prompting Naruto to do the same.

"Chakra is essential to even the most basic technique; it is the moulding of the physical energy and spiritual energy. Through various methods, the most common of which is hand seals, the chakra can then be controlled and manipulated to create an effect that would not be possible otherwise, such as walking on water,exhaling fire or creating illusions. Most ninja have a natural affinity to one type of chakra, but they have the capacity to create elemental chakra apart from their own affinity.

There are five basic types fire, wing, lighting, earth and water, each stronger and weaker to another. Everyone has chakra, but only skilled ninja can correctly "mould" and "manipulate" it to its fullest extent. General training methods for improving one's moulding and manipulation of chakra are the Leaf Concentration, Tree Climbing, and Water Walking exercises."

"Ok?" Naruto said.

Yuugao giggled at this "I know that the explanation is confusing Naruto-kun but I also know you can do it, the practice itself gets easier as you go. Now I want you to concentrate on your chakra, look for a feeling of power or warmth inside of your body." She said as Naruto did as she intructued, he concentrated for a few minutes.

"I-I think I feel it; it feels warm and calm, as if it was a still ocean."

"Yes now try to tap on that warmth; try to get to expand throughout your body" He nodded, after a few moments nothing happened but then Yuugao being the sensory ninja she was felt chakra starting to build up inside of Naruto. To say she was surprised would be an understanding, no she amazed. This was his first try and there he was already tapping on his chakra.

"Ok Naruto-kun you have it now get up." Naruto did as instructed and followed Yuugao until finally stopping at a tree. "Ok, what we are going to do is the most basic of chakra control exercises." She let a moment of silence for tension to build up wanting to see what his reaction would be. "What I am going to teach you is how to climb trees." The reaction she got was priceless.

"What! Climb trees!? For Real I don't believe it." Said Naruto clearly not believing what she just said.

"Now, now calm down, I haven't finished, you are going to learn how to climb trees without using your hands, here look." Yuugao said as she proceeded to start performing the technique making her able to walk on the tree as if she was walking on any other surface.

"Wow Kaa-san please teach me how to do that!" Yuugao smiled at the reaction.

"First of all while training is Yuugao-sensei." She said while dropping down from the tree.

"Hai sensei."

"Now as for technique you have to direct chakra to your feet and start walking in the surface of the tree, now careful, if you too few chakra you will not be able to do it and you will fall off the tree, but if you use too much you will rocket from the tree, this way you can learn how to control your chakra. Now try it." Naruto went and positioned himself at front of the tree, he tapped into his chakra and when he felt it he directed it at his feet as he started running at it. At first he simply advanced a few steps, but after an hour of trying he got to the half already of the tree.

'He has gotten so much progress so far, he truly is a prodigy, I can't imagine what he will be like when he grows up.' After half a day of training Naruto's stomach started to growl much to his embarrassment.

"Oh are you hungry Naruto-kun?" he blushed at the remark "Now that's only natural you have been training nonstop since morning, let go eat something and then you can get started with you Taijutsu training over with Anko"

"Hai" Both familt members with the addition of Anko who was profoundly snorting in a nearby tree, went to eat dango, let's just say that Naruto had a new vision of what favorite food after seeing Anko devouring plates dango as if her life depended on it.

./ After Eating back in Training Ground 7

"Okay gaki, let us get started, Taijutsu is a form of techniques involving martial arts, there are plenty of different styles around the world, the style that I use is the Hebi(snake) style. It is a high speed taijutsu that revolves around evading with fluidity the enemy attacks in extreme close range while giving critical hits when the occasion is presented." Anko said as she slipped into a loose stance separating her legs placing one foot in front of the other, making her left arm hang in front of her and the other flexed close behind her. She smirked sadistically. "Now come at me and show me what you have gaki" Naruto was fearful for a moment but filled himself with resolve and proceeded to attack Anko as she signaled…, BAM, only to be thrown quickly to the ground. Anko immediately started laughing much to Naruto's ire. Frustated he swiftly picked himself up from the ground and proceeded to continue launching a barrage of punches at Anko only for her to evade all of them fluidly, as this continue continue Naruto grew more and more frustrated and suddenly Anko delivered a swift and powerful knee-kick to his stomach. "As you can see I evaded all of your attacks, while keeping up close with you, and when the opportunity presented I delivered a good hit, I could have do it before but I enjoy playing with you" she said with a devilish smile.

"Hey!" Naruto loudly protested at the last remark only causing Anko's smile to get broader.

"Well you get the point, now come here I'm going to place some seals on you to make you heavier, this will help increase your strength, stamina and speed. Naruto did as instructed and after she was finished makin the seals the effects were immediate as he fell to the ground. Causing Anko to start laughing like crazy again. "Oh man, I swear I'm never going to get enough of this." Seeing that Naruto was getting angry she decided to stop. "Well okay then, let's get started on the katas(poses/movements.) that you need for this style.

./ 2 hours latter( try imaging the skip title with Sponge Bob's narrator's voice I love it.)

A very bruised Naruto was in front of Yuugao who had two swords on her hands.

"Man are you okay Naruto-kun? I'm sorry Anko can be very vicious when she gets into something, especially if it involves dango, fighting or pranking." She said causing herself to sweat drop at her own words.

"Ah it's okat Kaa-srrr Yuugao-sensei" Yuugao smirked at her son's will.

"Well, now you are going to get started at my favourite art, kenjutsu, kenutsu is the art of fighting with swords." Yuugao said signaled to the swords in her hand. "Kenjutsu can be used along with gen, nin, or taijutsu to achive even greater results, but this needs high level of training, expertice and experience to be able to be done."

"I understand sensei."

"Now when practicing kenjutsu you need to understand that the sword that you are wielding is not just a weapon but an extension of your body, and to boost its effectiveness you need to know the sword as if it was the palm of your hand. Understand?"

"Hai sensei." Yuugao smiled inwardly at her son's will to learn.

"Well if that's the case, here take this sword, get to feel it and then we will start viewing the katas." Yuugao said and then she motioned Naruto to step forward and to take the sword. The adventure of the last Uzumaki had just began.
