Naruto rolled over in his bed to look out the window. He saw that it was sunny out and sat up and yawned.
"This is going to be an interesting new life" Naruto said to no one in particular.
"Hey Narutooooo" a girls voice chimed from the other side of the door
"Morning Yachiru-chan" Naruto called back
Yachiru appeared in front of Naruto causing him to fall back on the bed. "Time to get up sleepy head"
"I am up" he mumbled from the bed
"Then why are you still in bed?" she asked innocently
"Cause you scared me, moving so fast like that" Naruto admitted as he got up out of bed and grabbed his shirt, cloak and sword.
"Ok, let's go, ken-chan is already at breakfast with Ikkaku and Yumchika" Yachiru said as she pulled him forward and out the door. Naruto chuckled before catching up to speed with Yachiru.
"Here, sit here" Yachiru exclaimed and pushed Naruto in a seat next to Ikkaku. Yachiru ran around Yumchika to sit next to Kenpachi.
"Don't worry, you'll get used to it" Ikkaku whispered as he drank some coffee.
"Hehe, thanks, Naruto Namikaze Uzumaki" Naruto said and extended his hand to Ikkaku.
"Ikkaku Madarame 3rd seat"
"Yumchika Ayasegawa 5th seat" he introduiced himself with a wave
"Hi nice to meet you"
"So anything to do today captain?" Ikkaku asked hoping for something exciting
Kenpachi sighed "Nothing, Yamamoto said there isn't anything special for us to do, but I guess we could start training Naruto here" Naruto just smiled
"He's not very good with such a big sword, he said he was used to smaller ones, what did you say they were Naruto kudad, kabab, kudoo, kuvai"
"kunai" Naruto corrected
"Yea he said they were good with them, and he could throw them and cut things and……
Everyone had drowned out Yachiru at this point. "So you ready Naruto?" Kenpachi asked as he got up followed by the rest of them. Yachiru jumping to sit on Naruto's shoulders causing him to stumble before righting himself.
"Ok let's go Narutoooo"
"Ow, my ears"
"Hey at least you don't have a nickname yet" Ikkaku added thinking of his.
After making it to the out courtyard and seeing it empty Narto asked a question.
"How come there aren't many people here? How many people are in the 11th division?"
"About the same as the other divisions, but most of us tend to sleep late cause they got guard duty at night so they still in bed" Yumchika said
"Alright Naruto show us your moves" Kenpachi ordered. Yachiru jumped off his shoulders and stood next to Kenpachi.
"Umm, what?"
"Ikkaku"
Ikkaku jumped over Naruto's head and unsheated his sword. He held the sheath in the other hand. He swung horizontally and followed up with the sheath. A diagonal slash with his word followed by a half turn with a vertical slash from the sheath. Ikkaku contined for another minute showcasing all his favorite attacks. Naruto stood dumbfounded.
"Um, yea I don't really have any of that, I always just reacted and did whatever felt right" Naruto admitted. "And like yachiru was saying I never used anything this big, its awkward" Naruto said as he inspected the katana in his hand.
"Ok then lets see what comes natural" Ikkaku said as he attacked Naruto with a downward slash. Naruto reacted quickly and swung upwards forcing the attack away. Ikkaku smiled feeling the strength in Naruto's attack, wild though it was.
Ikkaku swiped horizantally at naruto's arm. Naruto turned his sword straight with the blade facing down. Ikkaku's swipe hit the blade and Naruto forced his blade to the ground catching Ikkaku's with his hilt. Naruto stepped on Ikkaku's blade and stepped again near the hilt. He had his knee up ready to nail Ikkaku in the face but was knocked aside by the sheath.
"Great moves, it will be funning sparring with you." Ikkaku admitted
"Hah, in my previous life I was known as the number one most surprising ninja" Naruto said cheerfully.
"Ooo you were a ninja" yachiru asked from in front of Naruto. Naruto jumped back as the little girl appeared in front of him.
"Ahh I told you don't do that yachiru" Naruto snapped back. Naruto ducked a swipe from Ikkaku who started again. Yachiru quickly moving to safety and yelling at him for trying to hit her. Naruto bent backwards under a slash and parried the incoming sheath. Ikaku kicked at naruto who stepped around the kick and placed his foot behind Ikkaku's and blocked the sheath with his sword and grabbed Ikkaku's blade hand. Naruto smiled before delivering a headbutt forcing Ikkaku to fall as Naruto brought his foot up tripping him. Naruto's hand shifted from Ikkaku's hand and placed his forearm at his throat. Ikkaku brought his blade down forcing Naruto to roll off him.
Naruto rolled into a a flip to land on his feet. Ikkaku got up and coughed once, getting his breathing back in order.
"I must say I am impressed. Your sword skills absolutely suck, but you make up for them with your hands" Ikkaku noted. He looked over to kenpachi and the rest of his squad.
"Ok that's enough for now." Kenpachi said as he got up. "I got to go to the daily meetings, Ikkaku you and Yumchika start teaching the kid how to use that sword of his" Kenpachi said as he walked away.
"Anyone want some candy?" Yachiru asked as she munched on a bag of sweets"
"That was a very good show Naruto. It seems that soon you will be able to beat Ikkaku" Yumchika said walking closer with his arms still crossed.
"Yea. Am I right in saying you are above lutienant level, but not yet a captains" Naruto inquired
"Hehe, you must've been some kid in your time" Ikkaku admitted
"best in my village"
"at your age?"
"Yea, most people never get this strong, but I was a special case" Narutro said as he laid on the ground remincisang of his adventures.
"why is that?"
Naruto thought a moment before continuing. He had a feeling he could trust these guys. "on the day I was born a demon attacked my village, my father who was the yondaime hokage, who was the strongest ninja alive at that point sealed him into me to save the village from destruction. As a result the people hated me for it, but I didn't let that hurt me. You see the demon actually came with a few benefits. She gave me an abnormally large chakra store and advanced healing." Naruto cut his hand on the sword and showed it to his three listners. The wound bled for a few seconds before stopping altogether and covering it with new skin.
"Now chakra is the enrgy we used, where as you guys use your spirit energy. I could outlast even them most elite fighters and keep up with about anybody. I was going to be the next hokage after tsunade-obachan" Naruto said sadly
"well don't worry you will be even stronger here with us" yachiru exclaimed as she offered him a piece of candy which he accepted.
"Yea, but I think tsunade and Jiraya could beat some of the captains. Hell yachiru was there when I whipped up on that white haired punk" Naruto said
"Wait you fought Captain Hitsugaya?" Yumchika asked
"Yea, bastard didn't believe my strenght,m but I beat him around a little"
"He even beat the big ice dragon with a fire blast" Yachiru added
"Shikai?" Ikkaku said raising an eyebrow
"Yea that's what he called it"
"No wonder I had trouble" Ikkaku laughed
"You really think your Jiraiya and Tsunade could beat some captains?" Yumchika said
"Yea they could. Jiraiya was as strong as me, but a lot smarter and craftier. He could beat Toushiro no problem, he had some awesome fire attacks. That would have melted that dragon no problem. And Tsunade was stronger than anyone I know, physically wise, I could never even stay upright after getting hit by her and I know she never hit me her hardest" Naruto admitted before rubbing his face where Tsunade always hit him.
"You seem confident in their abilities" Ikkaku stated with a smirk
"Yea, but that is all on the basis of using chakra. O wait Gramps he was a hokage before he died" Naruto exclaimed.
"Who?"
"Gramps?"
"He means lieutenant Sarutobi under Yamamoto. He is also from Naruto's world" Yachiru informed
"Hmm, an old man is your basis." Ikkaku said as he thought about that lieutenant. He actually hasn't ever seen the man fight, or what his Zanpakutou is.
"Hey he was really good, before he turned into an old man"
"He is strong, he beat the previous lieutenant, without even using his Zanpakutou." Everyone looked to Yumchika
"What I was there. He was fast, and I mean fast. He appeared under his opponents guard and kicked him into the air with a massive kick. Then he jumped up to him and turned him around before slamming him headfirst into the ground. Pretty good fighting skills"
"That would be the Omote Renge. Very extreme moves. Try to do one of them one day, those kicks put a terrible strain on your body."
"Nah I think I'll stick to using Hozukimaru" Ikkaku said as he got up and motioned for Naruto to as well.
"Alright here are some basic moves and exercises to use….
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Tsunade sat at her desk with Jiraiya in one of the chairs to her side. A bottle of sake on the desk half empty.
"Why Jiraiya?" Tsunade started "He was going to be hokage, no doubt about it. Damn brat"
"Don't worry I am sure he is in a better place."
A chunnin walked into the room and knelt before the hokage.
"Hokage-sama the Kazekage has arri….
A swirl of sand materialized next to the messenger.
"I told you there was no need," Gaara said flatly. "Is it true that Naruto has died?"
Tsunade remained quiet as she stared out her window.
"Yes, Uchiha Sasuke was the culprit. He has been taken care of," Jiraiya informed with a sigh
"Taken care of for good?"
"Yes we were the ones who did it"
"When is the funeral?"
"Tomorrow, at the village center."
"That's what I'll do" Tsunade exclaimed. Jiraiya and Gaara turned to the silent hokage.
"I'll inform the entire village of Naruto's heritage along with the Kyuubi"
"I guess it wouldn't hurt"
"O I think it would, especially the council"
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Naruto lay on the ground taking deep breaths. Numerous cuts covered his body. Across from him sat Yumchika and Ikkaku who were both exhausted as well. Ikkaku was amazed, never before had he seen someone learn something so quickly, and get it done as if he were a master.
"Anyone need a drink?" Yachiru asked as she brought out three canteens.
"Thanks Yachiru-chan" Naruto said as he sat up to catch the thrown canteen. Ikkaku and Yumchika were hit in the head with theirs.
"Thanks lieutenant" they both mumbled.
"So what does Kenpachi do all day" Naruto asked "better yet what do all the captains do?"
"Basically they sit around all day, unless they have some paperwork," Ikkaku said with a smile
"They are all actually pretty lazy. None of them train anymore, just lounging" Yumchika said as if taking offense to their activities.
"I wouldn't say that" Yachiru scolded
"And why is that, its true" he remarked
"Is it now" a new voice said. Yumchika jumped up and hid behind the smaller Yachiru.
"Would you like to test that?" Soi Fon asked
"Nah I think he was just being an idiot" Yachiru said sitting atop Soi Fon's left shoulder.
"Still quick as ever Yachiru-chan"
"Yes Captain, Kenpachi taught me to move really fast." Yachiru said as if her speed were normal.
"Humph I bet he did. Now Naruto are you ready for your training with me?"
"Grahg" was the jumbled noise that Naruto let out as he got to his feet and sheathed his sword.
"Think you can keep up?" Soi Fon asked. Naruto stretched backwards over his head. He secured his sword to his waist.
"Yep"
Soi Fon disappeared from view as Yachiru flipped off her shoulder. Naruto yawned.
"Too easy" Naruto said before he too disappeared from view.
"Hmpf show off," Ikkaku said as he rested his blade on his shoulder as he walked away.
"Bye Narutoooooo" Yachiru waved into the direction they disappeared.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Naruto arrived at the training area of the 2nd division to see Soi Fon standing across from him with her captain's cloak off. Naruto rested his hands on his knees, panting. He smiled up at the captain who gave a small smirk.
"Better than I expected, but still not good enough"
"Sheesh sorry" Naruto remarked sarcastically not really caring. He would get faster eventually.
"Then let us begin, if you would place your Zanpakutou down."
"Hand to Hand? Ahh you had better be careful, my sword skills are trash compared to taijutsu." Naruto said happily. "I'll go easy on you"
"Funny, I had the same thoughts" Soi Fon replied before blurring towards him.
Naruto caught her approaching wrist. He ducked under a swipe from her other hand. Soi Fon turned her body and kicked Naruto in the head, relinquishing his hold on her.
Naruto got right up and parried another block from the captain. She crouched low and rocketed towards his chest. Naruto put an elbow down on her hands and pushed her head down into the ground. Soi Fon rolled out to the side with a smile.
"Very quick on your feet, you all already above seated officer level, let us begin with your speed" She replied.
5 hours later Naruto fell to his back with a smile on his face. He adjusted so his hands were behind his head. He just looked to the sky and basked in his day. He had never felt so accepted anywhere. He could tell that the 11th would become a family to him just as Tsunade and Jiraiya did. Soi Fon walked over with a towel around her neck and sat next to Naruto and pulled her knees to her chest.
"You passed my expectations. In a few weeks you will have learned more than enough." She said with a little bit of sadness.
"Aww did Soi-chan have too much fun, and now she's going to miss me?" Naruto said in a child like manner. He was on the receiving end of a well-placed smack to the back of the head. Naruto smiled and looked over to the scowling captain.
"NARUTOO" Yachiru exclaimed as she jumped down from the roofs to land next to Naruto.
"So same time tomorrow?" Naruto asked as he got up and Yachiru grabbed his hand
"Yes, I will come and get you from the 11th. Good Night Naruto, Good night Yachiru-fukataicho" She said as she stood up and walked away.
"Nite Soi-chan" He called
"Goodnight Captain" Yachiru yelled before pulling Naruto away towards the 11th division. Soi Fon watched them go with a smile on her face.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
It has been three weeks since Naruto arrived in Soul Society. Each day he trains with Ikkaku and Yumchika in the mornings and Soi Fon in the afternoon. He practiced swordsmanship with the 11th division and hand to hand with Soi Fon. She also taught him the basics of reitsu, which he soaked up saying it was similar to chakra, just a different feel. Yachiru considers herself the little sister of Naruto. She always teases him and then runs to Kenpachi. She does however share in Naruto's love of pranks. Naruto saw Kenpachi as a father type figure, somewhat. Ikkaku and Yumchika were his brothers who would do anything for each other. Soi Fon was like an older sister who always hit him.. Kenpachi had also promoted Naruto to the 4th seat of the 11th. Naruto really didn't want to seeing how Yumchika was still a little stronger than him, but it was also out of respect. Yumchika urged him on though by saying he doesn't like the number 4. Naruto had not yet been able to best Ikkaku in an all out fight.
The highest-ranking officers were seated at the main dining room of the 11th division. Kenpachi had just returned from the daily captains meeting and sported a happier than normal grin.
"What's the news Kenpachi?" Ikkaku asked with a slight twitch
"Yamamoto finally decided to let Naruto here go on a hollow hunting mission. All 5 of us are going too."
"Really, alright" Naruto said jumping up.
"Yay, Naruto gets to fight some hollows!!" Yachiru said as she hugged Kenpachi. Ikkaku and Yumchika stood and stretched. Naruto now wore the black robes of a seated officer but also wore his sage cloak and headband around his waist. His Zanpakutouwas in his hand. He had picked up the habit from his 'family'. They all carried their weapons rather than fasten them to their bodies.
"Heheh, well what are we waiting for? Let's Go" Kenpachi said as he walked outside to open a portal with his sword. He led the way and everybody jumped through
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
They exited the portal and found themselves just outside a large town.
"Um are we supposed to just walk through looking like this?" Naruto asked
"No the people here can't see us unless they have high spirit pressure."
'That's very unlikely though, most people barely have spirit pressure until they die. But your land is different, with their use of chakra." Ikkaku informed as he looked around for any hollows or signs.
"According to the mission, there are about 10 hollows running around." Yachiru said as she held the scroll in front of her face. "I say we go that way" Yachiru exclaimed. The rest of the group just looked at her.
"Me and Naruto will go this way come on Naruto" Yachiru said grabbing his hand. Naruto turned to the rest of the group for help, but they looked away as she pulled him to the north.
"Yachiru take care of him. Mission says I'm supposed to accompany him, but you have it covered" Kenpachi said before he took off in the opposite direction Yachiru was pulling Naruto.
"We'll go this way," Yumchika said as he and Ikkaku walked away towards the east.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Alright Narutooo, first thing you do is look for anything out of the ordinary, like a destroyed building or a something demolished." She informed from his shoulders.
"Ok, got it sis" Naruto said as he scanned the street.
He continued to walk down the street. People passed by never noticing him. Naruto kept avoiding the incoming people as a habit.
"Yachiru, I don't see anything" Naruto whined
"Silly it's only been 5 minutes, usually me and Ken-chan take 30 minutes before finding a hollow"
"Aww, that long??" Naruto whined
"Ye… Naruto and Yachiru both snapped their head in the direction that Ikkaku and Yumchika went.
"I guess they found them" Naruto exclaimed as Yachiru jumped off his shoulders to run along side him. The two shinigami bounded off the buildings and under any obstacles as if they had practiced for a long time.
They arrived a minute later to see Ikkaku surrounded by 9 hollows and Yumchika standing in front of 5 people who by the looks of things were killed in a car accident. Ikkaku was grinning like a madman. The hollows had a decent form of teamwork and were keeping Ikkaku on the defensive.
"Bout time Naruto, I've been waiting for you to get here so I can kill them."
Grow Hozukimaru
Ikkaku released his shikai and sliced through the closest hollow.
"He likes to brag when he does a good deed" Yumchika whispered.
"Hey I heard that!!"
"Simply slice through their mask, hollows will die, very simple. As you can see its not very complicated." Yumchika said fixing his hair.
"Yea, doesn't look hard."
"Now if you ever get patrol duty, which you probably won't because you are a high seated officer. But for the soul burial, all you have to do is tap their foreheads with the butt of your zanpouktou, works for all of them." Yumchika explained in a teacher like manner. He turned to the closest soul standing behind him and tapped his forehead as he explained. The man smiled before fading out of existance.
"Your turn"
Naruto performed the soul burial on the rest of the souls waiting, sending them to Soul Society, somewhere in the Rukongai district. Now he knew why he was a special case. These people barely had any spiritual pressure.
"Ok Naruto, last hollow is yours." Ikkaku sighed as turned to Naruto.
"Go, Narutoooo" Yachiru said as she withdrew two little pom pom's causing yumchika to do a double take as to where she got them from.
Naruto laughed at the girl's antics. He looked at the last hollow.
"Ikkaku, this isn't even going to be a challenge, you scared the damn thing." Sure enough the hollow was backing away from them slowly with a slight whimpering. Naruto grumbled under his breath and walked toward the creature who continued to back away. Naruto got within striking distance and drew his sword and with a simple slash cut its mask in half destroying it.
"Yaya Naruto-kun" Yachiru exclaimed giving him a hug.
"That was a lot less exciting than I thought it would be, is it always this boring" Naruto complained
"Yea, pretty much its always a simple thing like this. But that is why most higher officers stay in Soul Society as its guards. All the weaker shinigamis can take caer of these losers" Yumchika whined
"That's why I am always looking for a fight back home." Ikkaku stated.
"Hey maybe I can get Soi-chan to have a spar with you" Naruto said
Yumchika smirked devilishyl "So it's Soi-…BAM Yachiru hit him over the head. "No teasing Naruto-kun, that's my job."
"That would be awesome, I never fought a hand to hand specialist before."
"Hey Ken-chan" Yachiru squeled as everyone turned to see their captain arrive on the scene with a sad smile on his face.
"I only found 1 hollow, this was a waste of my time" he complained. "You get the job done and show Naruto here what to do?"
"Yea Captain, all taken care of" Yumchika reported with a mock salute causing kenpachi to chuckle.
"Alright then. Ikkaku, Yumchika, Yachiru you three are coming back home with me. Naruto you have a two-week patrol duty with the local shinigami Rukia Kuchiki."
"Awww it's boring though"
"It's a requirement for each shinigami" Kenpachi smiled "Have fun, HAHAHAHAHAH" as he opened the portal back to Soul Society and stepped thorugh with Yachiru on his shoulder.
"We'll come get you when its over Naaruto" Ikkaku said as he and Yumchika also walked thorugh with a simple wave. The portal closed and Naruto sighed
"Great now I gotta find the damn local. Hell I can't even remember her name. What was it Ruka, Rukee. Ahh forget I'll ask her when I see her." Naruto jumped off in search of the shinigami.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
After an hour of looking he felt a spirit pressure above the humans around him.
"Finally"
It was not that long Naruto-kun
"I know hime, but I've always been impatient" Naruto thought in his head
Yea, he couldn't stand waiting the two minutes for ramen.
Naruto-kun were you that impatient?
AHAHAHAHAHAH
"Yea, but I was younger, then"
hmm mm well I believe you should talk to the girl, especially since she is standing right In front of you Naruto-kun
"Whhatt," Naruto said in his head and aloud. Rukia stood before him with her sword drawn to his thorat. Naruto just looked at her before pushing the blade away with his left hand.
"Was that neccasary? Can't you tell I'm a shinigami?" Naruto said motioning towards his robes.
"Yes I can, but you should have answered me, when I asked your name." She replied
"Man are all you kuchiki's like this?"
"Like what?" she asked harshly
"They all have a better than everyone else attitude? God just like the Hyuuga" Naruto sighed causing a snicker from kyuubi.
"I do not have that kind of attitude"
"Yes you do"
"I do not"
"Ok well whatever, I am supposed to be your assistant for the next two weeks. Is there anythnig exciting to do around here?" Naruto asked as he scratched his head.
"You are my assistant?" She asked. Naruto nodded with an annoyed face.
"Ok, well I have been staying at the urahara shop on the other side of town. How fast are you?" she asked with a smirk
"Ha, faster than you" Naruto said as walked next to her.
"I never caught your name?" Rukia said before traveling.
"Naruto Uzumaki, 4th seat of the 11th Division" Naruto said with a short bow.
"You're a 4th seat?"
"Yes"
"Well you don't look like it"
"That's fine with me. And you …"
"Rukia Kuchiki of the 13th division" she said with a slight smile. "Shall I lead the way then?"
"Of course"
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
A few minutes later the duo arrived at Uruahara's shop. Kisuke, Tessai, Jinta, and Ururu were seated around a table.
"Ahh Rukia-chan you have returned from your patrol, who is our guest?" Kisuke asked waving his fan around.
"Naruto Namikaze Uzumaki of the 11th divison" She said not giving away his rank.
"Hello everyone" Naruto said with a bow.
"Ahhh nice to meet you Naruto. I take it you are the new shinigami that has all of soul society talking?" Uruahara asked
"That would be me. I tend to have a habit of doing that."
"Well then come have some tea, would you like anything to east?" Uruakara motioned him over.
"I would Thank You." Naruto said politely. Tessai stood up and walked into the kitchen along with Jinta and ururu who had finished their meals.
"So Naruto, do you know the name of you zanpoktou?" Rukia asked.
"Yea, I know them"
"Them?" Rukia had a confused look. "What do you mean them?"
Naruto let out a sigh. "I have two zanpoktou's. One is a result of something in my previous life. Their names are ShugoTenshi and Kyuubi." Kisuke smiled under his hat.
"My, My you sound strong Naruto-kun"
"I am, I was strongest in my old life. It won't be long before I am the strongest here" Naruto said with confidence.
"Hehe, quite a dream you have there" Rukia said laughing.
"Don't worry, I can back it up" Naruto said confidently.
"How long did you say you have a been a shinigami?" Kisuke asked from behind hid fan.
"Three weeks"
"Impressive 3 weeks and you already this strong, never before has there been such quick progress in Soul society."
A black cat jumped in a window and sat down near Kisuke. "Rising to the rank of a seated officer in three weeks. No one has ever risen that quickly."
"I have always been known as unpredictable" Naruto said as he eyed the cat. It returned the stare with a glare of its own. Naruto made some sort of seal then stopped. The others looked at him. Naruto took his cloak off and threw it at the cat before making the seal again.
"Release"
A poof of smoke enveloped the cat causing Yorouchi to take her true form. The rest of them looked at Naruto in shock. Kisuke and Yorouchi for noticing her true form. Rukia because she thought that the ex 2nd division captain was dead.
"I gave you that cloak for a reason" Naruto said grinning as Yorouchi sat there with the cloak on her head.
"How did you notice her?"
"Forget that, how did you force me out of that form, not even Blondie here can do that" She asked as she put the cloak on.
"Like I said I was very skilled in my previous life." He replied and thanked Tessai who had just entered the room with the food for him.
"Well, would you like a spar tomorrow?" Yorouchi asked.
"How come everyone I meet wants to test me?" Naruto exclaimed.
"Whom else have you sparred with?" Kisuke asked in his still calm manner.
"Some white haired brat, Ikkaku and Yumchika, and Soi Fon. And I have to fight Kenpachi in 10 days." Naruto said sighing
"Do you mean Toushiro?" Rukia said in disbelief
"If he is the short white haired kid with an attitude who uses an ice dragon than yea." Naruto took a bite out of his sandwich.
"The outcome?"
"Kicked that dragons ass, then Yamamoto ended it there. He babbled on about his Bankai" Naruto said casually.
"You defeated his shikai?" Rukia said again still not believing this kid.
"Yep with Kyuubi and Shugotenshi."
"Well than I would say that we do not need to test you. How about I help you with some of the advanced kidos." Kisuke said
"And I could teach you some stuff as well" Yorouchi said as she leaned forward with a grin. Naruto looked at her with a raised eyebrow."
"Hmph, I would have to see that, I can already keep up with Soi Fon. If I am correct, you trained her as well?" He asked slyly.
"Yep that would be me, fastest in all of Soul Society."
"Goddess of Flash Yorouchi. I guess I could learn from you" Naruto said with an even bigger smirk.
"Of course you would have to teach me some stuff you know, even if it doesn't work here"
"Sounds fair."
"Um excuse me, you are supposed to be helping me as well" Rukia said as she put both hands on the table.
"Oh right right." Naruto said waving his hand not really caring.
"Well we will have to fit that in somewhere, for now let us rest. Naruto-san I have a spare bed for you as well. This one is on the house though, next time you have to help around the shop.
"Wow really, that sounds fair, just let me know what you need me to do."
"This way Naruto-san" Tessai said as he led Naruto to his room.
"Thanks Tessai-san." Naruto said with a wave as he entered his room for the night.
"You are most welcome, good night Naruto-san" He said as he bowed and left the room sliding the door closed. Naruto stretched and took off his robes. He folded them neatly and sat down on the bed with his Zanpakutou laid across his knees.
"How long are you going to sit there Yorouchi?" Naruto asked without moving from his position.
The tan girl dropped from the ceiling in front of him in a crouched position. She eyed him curiously.
"You are a most interesting person Naruto-kun."
"Yep that would be me"
"I can tell you are as well Yorouchi." She smiled a cheesy smile.
"Well, you are the in the room I usually stay in"
"Would you like me to move?"
"Nah, I got the bed is all, you can share if you want"
Naruto opened an eye to look at the girl who jumped over him into the bed. Yorouchi smiled as she changed into a pair of shorts and a t-shirt and lay in the bed taking the covers.
It seems you have a feisty one kit.
"Thank the lord you were here to tell me that Kyuubi, and you think I didn't notice"
Well, you have been known to be stupid
Kyuubi, be nice to Naruto
Hmm you had better get into that bed before you lose the covers altogether
Naruto grumbled at the fox's remark. "Nite milady, Nite fox"
Hey how come yo..
Naruto cut the link and grinned as he stood up and walked over to the bed. Yorouchi turned over and looked at him.
Naruto got onto his side of the bed and grabbed the covers pulling them completely off of Yorouchi. Naruto snuggled into the blanket as if it were normal. Yorouchi grabbed another blanket and moved up against Naruto.
"Hey what are you do….
"Nite Naruto"
"Pain in the ass"
