Yo guys, sorry to keep you waiting, i just wanted tolet you know that this story is going fast, it is because i want to get past the training trip and start my story line :-) thanks you for patience and hope you like this
One figure in the clearing let out a small chuckle, watching with his sharingan he couldn't help it, ero-sannin was doing such a good imitation of fish. It was ten minutes after he told him and he still didn't shake it off. So Naruto sat into meditative stance and waited… and waited. After twenty-five minutes ero-sannin's face contorted into a face full of disbelieve then after five minutes of reassuring he got the strength to ask, "Where did you get it?" he knew that his parents were Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki so where?
Naruto frowned at this, should he tell him? He knew that had Jiraya knew he would have to tell Tsunade and she would have to tell the council which would probably use him as breeding stock and won't let him out of the village, on the other side if Naruto let him swear, Jiraya would have got suspicious of him leaving, he could always lie to him but he thought that someone of Jiraya's caliber could easily tell. Ah, he knew he would play it like he was afraid of the council, or maybe Jiraya will say something stupid...
"When I tell you Jiraya, what will you do with this information?" Jiraya was a bit caught off guard by Naruto calling him Jiraya but quickly shrugged it off as just being serious. "Well I just want to know, how do you have a sharingan when none of your parents had it…" At this he clasped his hand on his mouth but it was already late if annoyed scowl showing on the younger blonde was anything to go by.
"You did know my parents? Then It means that Sandaime also knew my parent, and that means… that he lied to me…" Naruto had to smirk at Jiraya's face as he saw panic all over It, so he took the liberty to increase it "So? Who were they?" Jiraya's head dropped slightly as the show of sadness when he had to talk about his old student. "They were Namikaze Minato, The fourth Hokage, The Konoha's Yellow flash and Kushina Uzumaki, Princess of the Whirlpool." Jiraya was however caught off guard by Naruto's smirk, and then got the second shock of this day "I know" said Naruto easily like it was nothing that he knew his parents were Yondaime Hokage and Princess of Whirlpool.
Naruto once again sat into his meditative stance waiting for Jiraya to wake up from his shock, after five minutes Jiraya finally shook from it and asked "H-How did you know? I-I mean sensei made it the top secret…" Jiraya face went once again said at that because while it was truth that making it public would put Naruto in danger from outside sources, without it he was in danger from inside sources, like civilians and even some ninjas. Naruto however looked at Jiraya and sighed
"I will tell you this if you promise that you won't tell it to anyone" Jiraya frowned at this a little, why did he wanted to hide his sharingan? He could gain respect from it and even honorable place, seeing as the last Uchiha left the village a while ago. But then again he wanted his student to trust him and by unraveling his secrets he didn't think he would. "Okay Naruto, I don't know why you want it like this but I promise on my name as a Jiraya, The toad sage I will not tell any of your secrets and what you are about to tell me now." Naruto was looking right into his eyes through the conversation and could tell he wasn't lying so he sighed once again, he was doing that a lot often these times.
"Well…" and he proceeded to tell him about everything that happened after he got the stab injury from Uchiha. He told him about Namikaze and Uzumaki's bloodline, telling him how Kyubi's chakra enhanced them and that when it reached his eyes the Kyubi's chakra merged with it and formed Sharingan writing it into his DNA code. He also told him, the entire training regime he was doing, but except doing chakra control exercise he didn't tell him anymore, saying he will examine and decide in the upcoming spar.
Jiraya was once again gaping like a fish, Naruto could be, no he would be really frightening and with his current style of training those three years of trip would be more than enough, he was also shocked when Naruto told him about Namikaze's library and that he had it with him. All in all Jiraya was amazed and couldn't wait for the match.
Motioning for his clone to get prepared he asked Naruto to what level he thinks of himself generally so he can decide the difficulty of clone. "I would like to think of myself as mid-level chuunin, which is all I will tell right now." Jiraya got a dangerously looking gleam in his eyes as he thought ´so full of self-consciousness, I will have to drop it down a peg or two.´ and with that he limited his clone to amount of low-level jounin speed, chakra control and capacity, he also limited it to only use low B-rank techniques to not hurt the blond.
Naruto for his part prepared for worst as he saw the gleam in Jiraya's eyes, preparing for fight both him and Jiraya's clone slipped into their taijutsu stances with Jiraya's eyes widening slightly from seeing perfect stance of intercepting fist style.
Staring at their opponent they both started to analyze each other, Naruto could tell that Jiraya was underestimating him a bit from his stance but could also feel at least jounin level chakra capacity. Jiraya couldn't tell much, Naruto's face was impassive and his stance flawless his two-tomoed sharingan slowly spinning, observing him. Sharingan's always unnerved him, it was such a great bloodline and he always hated fighting against it, it meant using only his pure speed so he could limit the prediction ability of it. He also shouldn't look straight into it, but this was Naruto he couldn't get any genjutsu work and that he had sharingan didn't mean anything, right?
Losing his patience, he ran straight and fast at the blond to measure him, Naruto was a bit surprised by his speed, he was too slow against this and he may have to release his weights to which Kyubi mentally nodded. Seeing Jiraya approaching with his fist raised he barely had time to move left and try to kick him into his abdomen, Jiraya seeing this caught the offensive leg and threw him hard into a nearby tree. Naruto seeing that this wasn't leading anywhere decided that a little cover would be nice and that his weights will be his ace in the sleeve. Jiraya noticing that the blonde was up, once again ran after him.
Seeing this, Naruto focused chakra into his hand and perfect rasengan former in less than two seconds, surprising Jiraya a little, then he drove his hand into the ground. Explosion occurred and a lot of dust flew up around him, using this cover as best as he could he created kage Bunshin to stand in his place and he took off to the trees, Jiraya seeing the cloud of dust clear, could only dumbly watch that Naruto was still at his previous place, shrugging he ran at full speed to him and used left hook to punch him. The clone thanks to his sharingan bowed slightly so that the punch missed him and held on the Tiger seal igniting explosive note on his back.
Jiraya's eyes widened seeing this but it was too late and explosion occurred, waiting for the dust to clear Naruto in the trees could see charred piece of wood where Jiraya should have been, Naruto cursed but knew that such a petty attack wouldn't work on a sannin even though it was clone of jounin quality. Thinking of his next move he silently moved from tree to tree.
Jiraya watching the fight was a little wide eyed but then smiled seeing that he underestimated the blond, he couldn't wait to see more, maybe… just maybe he will surpass Minato after all.
In the clearing Jiraya's kage Bunshin was patiently waiting for his opponent while intently watching his surrounding for any movement that would indicate an attack. Suddenly he dodged to the left as he saw fist flying right through where he used to be, going on handstand he used his leg to kick the blond into head, only for him to puff into smoke dropping another explosive note, seeing the immediate danger he once again used kawarimi only for him to dodge another kunai with explosive note attached to it, jumping out of the explosion range he could see ten blonds waiting for him patiently, going through hand-seals he ended with Tiger and blew of big fireball.
Once the dust cleared he could see eight blonds jumping straight at him preparing for taijutsu match. Jiraya seeing this got a wide smirk and bent lower than before, using his bent knees to add to his momentum he literally fired into the clones and dispelled two with punches, landing twenty meters away from them he quickly ran through five hand-seals and shouted Fire release: Phoenix Immortal fire technique and with that he launched twenty small fireballs to deal with the clones once and for all, for the clones the attack range was too wide and didn't have any choice but to take a direct hit dispelling them in large puff of smoke.
Suddenly about fifty kunais came from the smoke aiming for Jiraya, seeing this he jumped all over them in order to escape the explosive tags if they were attached to the kunais, but there were none. He was left no time to contemplate on this as he noticed one blond running straight at him, preparing to counter-attack he slightly lifted his left hand and tightened it into fist with his right arm bending lowly with open palm facing Naruto.
Naruto smirked at this, he ran at Jiraya only get the palm straight at his gut, flying ten meters far he closed his eyes and focused on his chakra, around him chakra started to appear and form into small needles, once Jiraya noticed this, there was over three hundred of needles and they were sent flying over to him, quickly using three hand-seals he shouts Earth release: Earth wall the needles however weren't as weak as Jiraya thought and went pretty deep into his shield, some even penetrating and missing him just barely. Looking around he couldn't see Naruto when suddenly very hard kick connected with his gut sending him into the tree line, Naruto seeing this thought ´there must be hell of a chakra if that clone didn't just dispel, well couldn't expect less from the toad sannin right? At least he was caught off guard by my speed without gravity seals´ Naruto seeing that his plan failed went over to his last resort.
Bringing out his sword he infused it with his chakra and prepared to attack Jiraya when he got up. Jiraya picking himself up after that very hard kick carefully eyed Naruto,´ what was that? Was that pure speed? But then again, how? Oh of course you baka! He is using weights!´ Dusting himself off he once again ran at Naruto in full speed mirrored by Naruto as they soon dived into very equaled battle with Naruto's chuunin speed and sharingan against Jiraya's jounin speed and experience.
The real Jiraya was now very impressed with his godson, not only did he get rid of his annoying persona and brash thinking but he also used strategy and got one hell of a kick on his clone, he couldn't wait to see what will be his next plan.
Naruto seeing that he was inching area with fifty kunais used something that he figured in his training. Chakra pulse he shouted while chakra that was used on his body armor expulsed in high speed against Jiraya, knocking him right into middle of kunais scattered on the ground. Looking around he was slightly at daze when he saw all the kunais puff and transform into clones approaching on him quickly swarming him in a box like pattern, just as he was about to jump up he hears fuinjutsu: four point barrier, his eyes widen when he sees blue-like shield preventing him from any escapes, his eyes almost fall out of sockets when he sees all of the remaining clones with him in the barrier carrying explosive seal and holding theirs hands in Tiger seal, "Boom" they all recited and gigantic explosion tore through the clearing leaving twenty meters wide and long crater and gaping Jiraya at tree. Naruto seeing this smiles and answers "Those were mine improved explosive tags but seeing as there was barrier to limit explosion it didn't have much of an effect" Jiraya shivers, he calls this small effect?
Going closer to the blond he notices that apart from few bruises he is actually fine and breathing little faster than normal, he is actually surprised at this, but when he goes through his clones' memories he realize that only direct approach of real Naruto was when he was getting him into the field with kunais. He smiles genuinely towards Naruto and pat him onto his back "Great job Naruto you actually used your brain and won, I can tell you that my clone would give a run to most jounins in Konoha seeing as I have a lot of experiences. I must say that I am sorry Naruto, now I can see why you didn't want to reveal your abilities, you are really the most unpredictable ninja in the world and with unknown techniques you can beat much stronger opponents than you, and I am very proud of you." Naruto's emotionless façade faded lightly and showed his first genuine smile after such a long time, Jiraya seeing this was glad that his godson wasn't lost and that his happiness could still be recovered.
"Well Naruto, go sleep we have training to do tomorrow!" shouted Jiraya to a little surprised Naruto and then left. Naruto stayed a little longer but in his eyes you could see how happy he was to be able to spend more time with Jiraya. He smiled one more time and left for his tent.
Two months later Torikure city
Two people are jumping on rooftops hunting for their prey, one of them is young man with blond hair and bright blue eyes which could pierce steel, he is wearing ANBU style clothing with red armor plates and red shoulder guards. On his foot are black ninja sandals and to his back is strapped humbly made katana with silvery blade and bandaged grip.
The other man looks to be in his fifties, his white hair are sticking in every direction and his eyes are looking around for any dangers, he is wearing mesh shirt with long black pants and red vest covering it all, his sandals are red and very unusual. To his back is strapped large scroll with tape over his shoulder.
They both look at each other and nod, just then they both disappear in a quick burst of speed with smoke covering their tracks, appearing right before their target startling him out of his skin.
The man is in his mid thirties with green hair and brown eyes, he has Rain headband tied around his forehead and on his back rest three umbrellas, to his waist is strapped what looks like handle of sword, which are his fingers gripping nervously.
"What the fuck are you doing here?! I didn't do anything wrong!" He shouts still not knowing his pursuers, One of them looks amused by him and asks. "I am very disappointed in you Rokushi Aoi you don't even know the gallant Jiraya!" and with that he summoned one frog and ended up in his embarrassing pose, while Naruto sweat-drops Aoi starts to sweat bullets, he could never even touch one of the legendary three, yet here he was with some gaki hunting him for reason unknown to him. "C-c-c-an I a-ask y-you w-why are y-you h-h-hunting me?" Aoi stuttered out not being able to speak properly knowing he would soon fight in battle that would be totally one sided. Jiraya closed his eyes and smile softly pointing over to Naruto and with that he said "My student is going to fight you for experiences of course!" he boasted especially when he said ´his student´. Aoi hearing this eased a little ´he can't beat me right? I mean he is such a brat I should show him the true power of raijin´ He suddenly got his confidence back and sneered at the boy "You can't defeat me gaki, let's make a deal Jiraya-sama, if I win you will let me go" Jiraya was a bit caught off guard but then smirked "Deal" Naruto smiled at this but knew that he couldn't underestimate his opponent, according to bingo book, this Aoi character was at least mid-level jounin, but he had already formed a plan that will surely work.
Cocking back his fist, Naruto disappeared in a burst of speed, appearing right before Aoi punching him straight into the face, Aoi was sent back ten meters rubbing his face from the hard hit he got, his eyes flashed in anger and he pulled out his Raijin. Swinging it around to get a feel of it he started running toward the blond ninja with intent to cut him in half.
Naruto seeing that Aoi got closer jumped up to the roof waiting for Aoi to reach him, just as Aoi reached the point Naruto stood before large explosion hurled him away into the wall opposing that of Naruto. Naruto seeing that Aoi dropped his sword made a cross handed seal and sent one Bunshin to recover it. Focusing on Aoi once more he runs through five hand-seals and bow of chakra forms in his hands, he loads it with arrow and waits for his signal.
Aoi getting from the rumbles sees that Naruto has bow aimed at him and Is waiting for something, suddenly two rocks puff around him and he is held by two Kage bunshins of Naruto, the last thing he ever saw was bright blue arrow about to pierce his head.
"Good job Naruto" Jiraya smiles brightly at him showing that he was satisfied, Naruto thanked him, smiled at him and said that Aoi underestimated him, they both nodded once again and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
During these past two months Naruto has once again worked on his chakra control and finally reached low-kage level, his speed increased to that of high-level jounin without his seals on, his taijutsu now regarded Namikaze style and Intercepting fist on level of high jounin, his kenjutsu was composed of same styles but his skill rose to that of low-level kage, he needed to rise to mid-level kage in order to use his mother's sword, seeing as every mist swordsman had at least that level of skill. Last but not least, his fuinjutsu skill once again rose quickly under the watchful eye of seal master Jiraya. He also frequently sparred with Jiraya and tried to get more experience. There were three times he fought someone else and that was one chuunin level missing-nin from kirigakure, which he dispatched quickly using taijutsu and well placed kunai into his heart.
Flashback
Looking horrified at his hands Naruto fell on his knees and started to uncontrollably sob, sobs turned into loud cries of horror as he killed for the first time in his life, Jiraya seeing this quickly jumped out of his hiding spot and went over to blond to help him get through it, he knew It will be tough but he had to do it so he could look up to the future. In shinobi world mercy didn't exist as it only turn around to bite you in the ass. Kneeling next to him he put a hand on his shoulder and with other patted his back, then in just a whisper he started to tell him "Naruto, you have to understand that when you killed this man, you have probably saved many innocent from dying, you have to see through the killing part as it is the job of ninja. We aren't knights in shining armors, but you already know that so I wouldn't bother to tell you, now get a hold of yourself and go get your body cleaned to the nearest inn, I will meanwhile send gamakichi to the kirigakure for bounty and will go to see my informant, see ya." And with that he disappeared in a puff of smoke. Naruto got up and steeled his eyes, Jiraya was right, right now he saved many innocent from dying by this man hand. He turned around and planted explosive note on what was left of the body, he went fifty meters away and with tiger seal blew him off, he turned around and "I smell like a fucking shit" he growled out as some chunk of meat landed on him.
End of flashback
From that moment on he opened up more to Jiraya and he had dealt with killing he knew all the things Jiraya said to him before but it was just flash of a moment and the killing was so instant and he lost it. He knew that being ninja required it from him and so he dealt with it.
Then there was the second fight, Naruto knew that in this fight he had almost gravely underestimated his opponent and that he would have died had it not been for small, well actually big help.
Flashback
He couldn't believe it, this Jounin from Iwagakure just wouldn't let him near, he was hurt and bleeding profusely, he got some pretty big slashes and he just couldn't for the sake of Christ get to him.
The jounin was bombarding him with one earth technique after another, you ask how he got into such a mess right? Well he was walking with Jiraya towards the village on the borders of rice and fire country when ten Iwagakure missing-nins surrounded them, when nine of them led Jiraya out to fight him, Naruto stuck up with this asshole and was getting his ass kicked.
His train of thoughts was however interrupted as another technique was called out Earth style: Earth spikes his eyes widened and he just barely jumped over the spike that would have impaled him through the gut, steeling himself he vowed to not lose here, he formed hundred of needles from his chakra and sent it after the rock-nin, he with a call of Earth style: Earth wall was protected from them but that was all Naruto wanted as he couldn't see him now, so with a quick burst of speed he appeared before the barrier with perfect rasengan drilling through it, when he hit the rock-nin he became wide-eyed as he became all muddy and fell to the ground, looking frantically around Naruto noticed the man with sword aiming for his heart quickly approaching and Naruto knew he couldn't block it, his eyes closed on instinct but after two seconds they shot wide open with three tomoes looking intently on the rock-nin, subconsciously focusing chakra into his eyes they began radiate killing intent so hard that the rock-nin stopped in his tracks and started to shake in fear, not one to pass a chance Naruto created chakra sword out of thin air and cut off his head, sealing It into scroll.
End of flashback
Then there was Aoi who he killed right now, so all in all he would say that the last two months were focused on mastering his psychical attributes, close range combat, chakra control and fuinjutsu. They were nearing the village they were staying right now so Naruto cut off his train of thoughts and asked Jiraya "So, where will we move now ero-sensei?" Jiraya growled silently at the nickname but let it go, with a smile he answered "Tomorrow we are going to the mountains, to train your main affinity wind." Jiraya's smile got wider as he saw his godson's excited face "So, how long are we going to spent training my wind affinity?" asked Naruto, now really curios.
"Well… in mountains we will train once again two months and see the results, I want you to do it in two months but that may be impossible as you will also be doing psychical exercises to reach kage and my level of fitness, if you will not master it in that time, we will leave after third month." Jiraya truthfully replied, Naruto was deep in thought and then he got a question "What about then? Can you tell me your plan in rough sketch for me?" Jiraya thought about it for a moment and then ´hmpfed´ "Of course I can brat, after the wind affinity training we will start to erase some names in bingo books" Jiraya smirked at this and Naruto's face lit up like a Christmas tree. Jiraya however continued "We will hunt missing-nins for one month and then go and train you second affinity which is water, seeing as these two are your strongest, we will then hunt missing-nins for three months and try to gather as much experience as possible, I will also start to introduce you to some of my contacts. After that we will once again go for elemental training, this time for lighting, this may take for you three months as I will try and push your body to your limits with Kyubi's chakra floating through it and your body adapting to it. And then, hmm, I don't know maybe you can try hiraishin and fully master rasengan, I will probably also introduce you to sage chakra." Naruto nodded to everything that Jiraya said and got a little dreamy look when e mentioned the fully mastered rasengan. "Oh and also we will try for you to perfect you sharingan and everything that goes with it" Jiraya added as an afterthought
With that they bid each other good bye and went to their separate tents, having to prepare their bodies for tomorrow's trek to mountains.
Five days later borders of bird and earth country, mountains
Two figures are standing on the top of highest mountain in the south region of elemental countries, Naruto and Jiraya arrived here eight hours ago, so now they are after a nice eight hour long sleep. "Naruto create four hundred clones and start with trying to cut leaves with your chakra on that tree" he said pointing over to the one of many trees growing on the mountain."Hai" replied Naruto shortly and without even bothering to do hand signs four hundred clones appeared, took their leaves and started to train. "Now, what about me sensei?" Jiraya got a devious grin that scared Naruto a little but he stood his ground waiting for orders from his sensei. "Update your gravity seal up to ten times the gravity and give me five hundred laps in ten minutes." Naruto gulped and made two hand-seals fuinjutsu: Gravity seal increase and with that he had to send chakra to his legs to keep himself up, pumping in more chakra he started to run, first slowly but getting quicker every minute.
This went on for like two hours when suddenly half of the Naruto's in the crowd yelled "I got it!" Jiraya turned to them, slightly surprised that they had done so fast without even dispelling. "Naruto, dispel them and process the information, with that he went over to large clearing and started doing hand-seals, when he hit twentieth he said Earth release: Earth Rampart and with that a huge wall of earth rose twenty meters up, Jiraya started to do another five hand-seals and with a yell of Summoning jutsu a big puff of smoke covered the top of mountain, when it cleared, there stood ten meters tall toad looking at Jiraya lazily "What do you want Jiraya?" Jiraya's head dropped at such a lack of respect but then shop up and with calmness in his voice said "I need water from that rampart Gamamizu" The toad looked over where the pervert pointed at and went through ten hand-seals, with a shout of Water release: water flow he shoot on the rampart and there it miraculously started to gather after it fell off the newly created waterfall."Thanks" said Jiraya. "No problem, see ya perv." Jiraya angrily turned but was only met with smoke to face, he once again started with hand-seals and after ten of them shouted Earth release: Rock road, his hands met earth and formed long road suspended in air before the waterfall, he looked at his handy work and went over to Naruto.
"Well Naruto now, all you have to do is to cut the waterfall in half, with only your wind chakra. Form four hundred clones once again and get into the work." With that requested clones once again appeared on the artificial road and started to expulse their wind chakra into the waterfall, trying to cut it into two.
"Naruto now I want you to run into that forest, while there I will be throwing all kinds of things and you have to dodge, so good luck." Naruto nodded and they started their exercise.
It went like this for two days when there was a group shout of "I got it!" Both sensei and student looked over to the waterfall and watched in slight amazement as clones now effortlessly held the flow in place. Jiraya looked over to Naruto and smiled "You can release your clones now, we will start on Jutsus tomorrow, now I want you to spar with my clone while having ten of yours watching from all angles." Naruto once again nodded and they spent rest of the day like this
Next morning you could feel the excitement up in the air. Naruto's thoughts were centered on his soon to be wind jutsus and he couldn't be happier. Seeing that his sensei still hasn't got up he decided that light warm up was in place, he created ten clones to read about poisons and got on his way to forest.
When he reached small clearing inside the forest he heard quiet growling but paid it no attention, he went over to lake and undressed himself. Getting into the morning freezing water he started to swim to relax his muscles and warm his body properly. After getting enough of bathing he went out and dressed up once again, choosing to scout this forest he started running the opposite direction he came from and soon was lost in the beauty of nature. There were young trees reaching ten meters everywhere, the forest life was slowly awaking from sleep and flowers were reacting to morning rays of sun, embracing it. He could see family of monkeys feeding their young ones and got a little sad at that thought, he always wanted family but that was denied to him. He knew that he still loathed Konoha for it and he would never make family in there. There was one thing he knew for sure, and that was that he would like to have a female warrior by his side, woman with strong side in battle but also woman who would sooth him when he felt sad, a woman to make him feel wanted.
His eyes shed a little tear from all the thoughts he had but he quickly wiped it away ´everything with time´ he said to himself.
He continued running and watching the magic of nature until he arrived on a large clearing, it was radiating a weird feeling and Naruto felt excited by it, walking right through the clearing he noticed twenty or so pairs of eyes watching him. Those eyes were animals', he didn't know the species but he knew the look in them, it was that of predator watching his prey.
There was absolute silence, if the pin would fall you would hear it, it was definitely calm before the storm Naruto thought, he closed his eyes and set himself into a relaxed stance, focusing chakra into his ears to have better perception he calmly waited for predator to strike.
Suddenly a deafening roar echoed through the clearing and twenty-four lions started to run for the blond, Naruto hearing the roar opened his eyes to reveal a fully matured sharingan spinning calmly. Watching the lions charge he decided that blood wouldn't go well with this beautiful clearing, fishing through his pouch he finds the tag he is looking for and places it on the ground, he then bent lowly and with chakra flowing through his legs jump high into air. When lions arrive on the place their prey stood they look up and snarl at him, he only smiles back and hold his hands in monkey seal while muttering Fuinjutsu: Electric discharge, the effect was immediate, electricity sparked around the tag and coursed through twenty lions making their world go black, remaining four snarled at the blond once again and rushed over to him to avenge their pack, Naruto station himself into a stance and with burst of speed send other two lions into dreamland, the other two weren't much better as they got hit by hilt of Naruto's sword.
Naruto satisfied with his handiwork dusted his hands and was about to walk off, this was however interrupted as another deafening roar echoed around him and lion, size of the toad boss, jumped right in front of him, behind him ten lions of different sizes went to check on their downed pack. Naruto seeing this prepared to summon Gamabunta, he was however interrupted by the giant lion snorting, "I haven't come here to fight you gaki, I was just saving my pack, but seeing that you hurt them, maybe I should kill you?"The lion boss was amazed that this boy managed to stay calm even though he was facing one of the strongest bosses in the world "I believe that it is your pack you should blame, they have attacked me unprovoked and I decided that taking care of them would be a good idea" Naruto said slowly fighting with boss in staring contest.
One of the checking lions roared something and the boss nodded its head, he turned to Naruto "I see that they are not even hurt, it takes a lot of skills to defeat even the youngest lions without killing them… would you be interested in bearing the lion contact?" the boss asked casually, Naruto was a little taken aback by this and his hand went up to his chin setting into a thinking position. He thought about it and there was slight catch. "What if I have another contract? What will happen with it?"The lion boss looked straight into his eye and said "You can have as many contracts as you want, it doesn't really matter. But with us there is a catch, when our clan contract has a bearer we want him to fight with us and not others, you may have two but we will be your main" Naruto was thinking on this for a while, toads weren't well suited for his styles, he was aggressive and unpredictable, almost like lions "So, what is the test?" Naruto decided that lions were contract he would like to have.
The boss smirked at the boy's intelligence and answered in his booming voice "There are three, one is to have chakra capacity big enough to summon me, I believe that will not be a problem with you, as I feel that your chakra reserves are pretty big, the second condition is to learn sage chakra within our clan, and the third is to defeat our pack. Seeing as you have already accomplished two of them and the remaining will be done due to time, you can sign our contract." He finished and next to Naruto puffed lion big enough to equal Naruto with scroll in its mouth. Naruto took it and signed it, just as he was about to stand up the contract holder bit him hard into his forearm. He held in the pain and after it subsided, he could see new tattoo adorning his right limb. He smiled and thanked to the boss, he then bid him goodbye and said that he will call them soon, with that he ran off heading towards his tent.
The old lion let out a sigh and started talking "I could sense that this boy is very powerful, future of our clan is in good hands" and with a nod of his brethrens they all left in large puff of smoke.
Back in the camp
Jiraya was getting restless, that gaki just ran off and he couldn't find him, there were ten clones reading something about poisons but they wouldn't even budge no matter what he did. Seeing that he had time he sat on a stone near their tents and started to think about jutsus he would teach his young charge, wind release wasn't his element but he could do it, in fact it was his third best element. He as the sannin thought that knowing all of the five elements would be good, so on his traveling he learned all of them, he unfortunately had problem with lighting and when he used C-rank ninjutsu it used same amount of chakra like his A-ranked fire jutsu, and what was even worst the effect was more like tickling than any real damage. Getting back to his wind jutsus he thought that wind release: great breakthrough would do well for Naruto, even though its C-rank, it's basically the simplest jutsu, just exhale the wind chakra. Yes that would do.
Seeing blonde mop of hair he shot up and started yelling "Where were you brat? You kept me waiting!" Naruto just sweat-dropped because it was actually Jiraya that kept him waiting, as he was running only because Jiraya overslept. Shrugging he apologized even if he didn't mean it. "So, what will be the first technique on our list ero-sensei?" Jiraya once again turned red from anger at the nickname but soon let it go "Well I thought that Wind release: great breakthrough would do good so that is what we will be practicing now…" Naruto nodded and dispelled his clones that were reading on poisons immediately hitting him with their informations, he then created another fifty and sends them to get whatever book they wanted to read.
Looking back to Jiraya he activated his sharingan and was waiting for Jiraya to show him what technique he will learn. Jiraya seeing that the blond was prepared started with seven hand-seals and then shouted Wind release: Great breakthrough with that he send strong gust of wind toward the tree line, almost uprooting them. Naruto could see it, the attack wasn't pumped with enough chakra, had it been it would have blown those trees away. Gathering the informations he got from his sharingan he slowly started to go through the same hand-seals like Jiraya, when he finished he calmly said Wind release: Great breakthrough, what happened next left a wide eyed Naruto and Jiraya.
When Naruto finished those words, wind started to pick on speed around him and was getting darker and more violent. Naruto not sensing this sent his wind attack towards the tree line, the result was devastating, every tree in the vicinity was blown off and the clearing looked like tornado tore through it.
Both Jiraya and Naruto could say only two words "Holy shit"
