I don't own NARUTO or Magic: The Gathering, they belong to their respective owners.
Naruto of the Seven Blades
A/N: From now on I will write the name of each Jutsu in English, why? It´s easier.
Now on with the reviews
Dericof Diname:
Yep it's Danzou and I will only use several spirits from Kamigawa, no planeswalkers for this history.
Jagger79
Thank you and I'm trying to improve my description abilities.
And the pairing will be Naru/FemHaku/Hina/Ten
Didn't planned the fight of Gaara and Ten-Ten, but it will give me something for them to meet later on the fic.
Chapter 7 One month of training
Team 7 just got out of the forest of death and went to their training ground per Kakashi´s orders, when they got there they sat down and listened to him.
"Ok guys, this will be the arrangements for the month, Sakura, I talked with doctor Yakushi and he accepted to iniciate you on the medic nin program report tomorrow at the hospital at 8 am" The girl nodded " Naruto, I got you to train with Uzuki Yuugao, she is one of the best swords masters in Konoha and owed me a favor, report with her tomorrow, here at 7 am" The blonde nodded " Sasuke, you will be training with me, look for me at the village gates tomorrow at 8 am, and pack for a month" The Uchiha nodded " Team, dismissed" they all acknowledged his order and scrammed to their houses.
Naruto was walking to his house when an ANBU called for him.
"What do you need ANBU-san?"
"Naruto-san, you are required to meet with Sandaime-sama"
The ANBU with the Tora mask grabbed his shoulder and shunshined to the tower, once on the building they knocked at the office´s door.
"Enter" Said the Sandaime from behind the door
"Hokage-sama, I brought Uzumaki Naruto" Repoted the ANBU
"Thank you Tora you are dismissed" Said the Hokage and Tora exited the room after a quick bow.
"Take seat Naruto-kun" Asked Hiruzen
Once Naruto sat and placed his blade on his lap he asked "What happened Jiji?"
"Naruto-kun, I want to thank you for the prisoner you captured, normally we would have to release her or risk international affairs, but we have evidence that my former student infiltrated the exams, we don´t know his purpose and we believe she was sent to test your teammate Sasuke, so I´m going to ask you to keep an eye on him, we don´t know what will happen if Orochimaru wants to kidnap or recruit Sasuke"
"Ok Jiji" Said the blonde "Oh, I nearly forgot" he said while looking for his storage seal and unsealed Shibaku "A guy named Suigetsu entered the exam, he said that he infiltrated them and he was going to kill me and take my sword from me"
"And what happened?"
"I k-killed him and found his sword, it exploded everytime he hit something" he said while unsealing Shibaku
"My god, that's Shibaku" Said the surprised Hokage
"Really?"
"Yes Naruto-kun, now you have 2 swords of the Hidden Mist"
"I don't really know if I want it"
"And why would you say that?"
"Zabuza gave me his sword by his choice, Suigetsu didn´t, it feels like I´m stealing it"
"Naruto, the truth is that most shinobi once they kill an enemy with a powerful weapon they keep them, it´s called spoils of war"
"Could you keep it?" He pleaded "It´s just that every time I see it I see Suigetsu´s face when I killed him"
"Yes Naruto, but if you want it back just tell me" The Hokage said with a sigh.
"Hai Jiji" Confirmed the blonde.
Unknown location
Danzo was checking several reports in his office when Fuu knocked the door and he gave the man permission to enter.
"Danzo-sama I got the re reports of the captures and test subjects" Said the Yamanaka
"How are them developing?" Asked the old man.
"We have captured from entity 1 to five, but the other 5 entities are elusive" Answered Fuu
"Double the efforts, we must capture all of them before the end of the chuunin exams" Ordered Danzo
"Hai Danzo-sama"
"And the test subjects?" Asked the old man.
"Subjects 1 and 2 are fully recovered, subjects 3 and 4 are recovering quickly while subject five is still in critical condition" Answered the ROOT agent
"Good, inform me from any development" Ordered his leader
"Hai" He confirmed and exited the room.
"Maybe I will never get my hands on the Kyubi, but with this new soldiers I will gain an edge on you Sarutobi, after all the Kyubi can always reform itself" Thought Danzo
Next day training ground 7
Naruto was entering the training ground when he saw a woman with long purple hair with standard Jounin uniform and a ninjato on her back.
"You are on time Naruto-san" Commented Yuugao
"Hai sensei"
"It´s good you don´t get Kakashi´s bad habits" She continued with a smirk.
Naruto chuckled
"Now, we are going to begin with a spar, to know your skills" Said Yugao
Yugao unsheathed her ninjato and Naruto unsealed his Zanbato, both of them got in their stances and waited in silence, a breeze traveled between them and Naruto charged to attack her, she applied chakra to harden her sword and began to parry the attacks of Naruto, swing from the left, swing to the right, trying to trick her with a clone he made with one handed seals, then she went on the offensive, probing his defenses and making him several small wounds.
"That´s enough, you did fine" She stated
"Thanks sensei"
"Your openings are minimal; Kakashi taught you well" She then grabbed a small piece of paper "Channel chakra thru it"
He grabbed it and it split in half
"Good, you have wind affinity" She said
"Ahh, wind it´s lame" The blonde complained
His sensei got a tick mark on her face, then she walked to a nearby training post channeled wind chakra thru her sword and cut in half the post, only the tip of her blade touched the post "Was that lame?"
"What happened sensei?" asked the fascinated blonde "Your sword barely touched the post"
"Wind chakra can be channeled thru blades to extend their range and increase their cutting power, also wind jutsu are invisible to the normal eye" She stated
"Cool!" the boy exclaimed
"Now see this" She channeled Lightning chakra thru her blade and stabbed another training post, the retracted her blade from it.
"Wow, what was that?" He asked surprised
"That was lightning chakra" His sensei answered
"Cool, but wind is cooler"
"*Sigh*Maybe, but they have different uses" She sheathed her sword, sat down and Naruto did the same "for example, while wind it´s better to cut and hit, lightning is better to stab and stun, that's what makes this elements the sword master elements"
"Sword master elements?"
"Yes, any shinobi sword master has to use at least one of these elements to be recognized as such, except on Kiri, they have their own system to recognize their sword masters"
"Oh"
"In this month you are going to learn how to channel chakra and wind chakra to your blade and make it sharper, you can ask Kakashi to the lightning one after the exams"
"Hai"
"Ah, I nearly forgot, wind is weak against fire" his sensei told him
"What? Why?" asked the surprised blonde
"Yep, if a fire and wind jutsu clash the fire one will consume the wind one and make itself stronger, likewise lightning is weaker than wind but stronger than earth, each element has a weakness and a strength" she lectured
"Yes sensei, I have one question I was going to ask Kakashi-sensei" he said
"Ask"
"I discovered that once my shadow clones dispel I get the memories back" He told her
"You didn´t knew?" Yugao asked
"No"
"Oh, it´s just that information on the description of the jutsu" She stated
"Really?" Asked the blonde
"Yes"
"Ok, I was thinking, maybe I can use them to train?" Asked the boy
"You would need to make at least a hundred clones per training session, no one can pull that stunt" She said while chuckling
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" The blonde said and a hundred one Narutos littered the training ground
"Wow, I never believed the stories" The ANBU said after a whistle and began thinking "What chakra control exercises do you know?"
"Hmm, leaf floating and tree climbing" he told her
"That's it?" at his nod she made two shadow clones "Ok, fifty clones will go to the nearby stream and practice water walking, my clone will explain the exercise, the other fifty will go begin to learn how to channel chakra to their blades, my other clone will explain and the original will stay with me and practice some Katas, remember to not dispel to many at the same time, only 5 at a time, we don't want you to have memory backlash"
"Hai" the 101 blondes told her
Once the original Naruto and Yugao were alone she told him "Maybe you will get both affinities before the exam, if you impress me I will get you a jutsu for both"
Hokage's Office
Currently Sarutobi was talking about the sword that Naruto gave him.
"I think that we must return it to Mist" Said Homura "Having one is enough to annoy them, but having 2 will make them begin to hunt our shinobi actively, it's not woth the risk"
"I think we must keep it on the vault" Said Koharu "They will not know we have it and they will have that weapon denied"
"I think we should give it to Uzumaki-san" Seeing the looks of the other ocupants in the room "He is the only one that can make use of a sword like this in the village"
"You forget about Haku-san"
"She isn't a sword user, as I can see he is the only one in the village that could use it and it would be foolish to let this weapon rot on the vaults"
"You make it sound like those were clan techniques" Snorted Homura
"Why not?" "The Uzumaki clan existed at some point on history, we could say that the boy is reinventing it"
"What are you playing at Danzo, usually you try that Naruto has the humblest life as possible"
"All three arguments are fine, but I must agree with Danzo, Naruto has the best possibility to master any of the swords of the Hidden Mist properly on the village, every other person will never put so much dedication towards that goal"
"So, you are proposing that we give that boy any sword of the Hidden Mist we acquire?"
"Once he proves his loyalty to the village, I don't see why not?" Said Koharu
"Ok, any sword of the Hidden Mist that Konoha acquires will be given to the Uzumaki family once Naruto reaches Chuunin rank"
Everyone nodded
"So, we have a new shinobi family?" Asked Koharu
"Yes" confirmed Sarutobi "At least with this I can begin to correct the lack of family that Naruto-kun felt as a child"
"You know what law will be active from now on?" Asked Homura
"I would have done it once Naruto began learning about seals anyway" Said Sarutobi
"Ha, that brat is to stupid to learn seals" Scoffed Koharu
"Most of the Uzumaki clan had his personality" Remembered the old Hokage
"Sarutobi you fool, once I remove the Kyubi jinchuuriki you will fall to my new weapons" Thought the bandaged man
Naruto´s training
By the end of the first week Naruto finally got both chakra control exercises, the water walking took him half an hour to get while practicing it on different kinds of currents the whole week.
The chakra empowering of his sword took him 5 days to perform, but he got it down and practiced until it required almost no concentration.
The second week he began unlocking his wind affinity, it took him the whole week but he managed to add it to his sword.
It was at this time that Hayate, Yuugao´s boyfriend died, but she didn´t interrupted his training, most likely it helped her cope with her loss.
Practicing on the thunder element went slow but by the end of the first week he got the first part, which was crumpling a leaf and the second part took him 3 days to perform fine, it was the Lightning Surge Jutsu, this Jutsu normally wasn´t used on combat because the enormous amount of chakra it consumed but being Naruto he made it functional, It took him another day to add Lightning chakra to his sword.
In his kenjutsu he had almost no openings and his physical strength was enough to lift his sword (not Kubikiri-hocho, the replica that Kakashi gave him) for several hours.
He also progressed very much with his summoning, he learned that aside from messages the desert family would not be of very much use on Konoha, the crested family likes to fight on open areas and were you needed a heavy hitter and the tree family was perfect on both urban and forested areas.
2 days before the finals
"Naruto, you have impressed me, unlocking 2 affinities in one month is not an easy task" His sensei commented.
"Thank you sensei" The blonde proudly expressed
"I want you to rest these remaining days" She said
"But sensei, what about the Jutsus?" The blonde asked
"Naruto, don't be impatient, you will not have them battle ready for the finals, so you will have light training today and tomorrow you rest" she said calmly "Here there are" She said while giving him 2 scrolls to him "The first is Vacuum Blade, it´s a Jutsu used to block projectiles or throw your target, the second is Wave of Inspiration, it´s a support Jutsu that is better used to stun a target and doing minimal damage"
"Cool!" he said while hearing her explain the jutsus
"Don't make me regret giving them to you, this are Chuunin level sword jutsus, so use your shadow clones for the first tests, understood?"
"Ok"
"Now, do you remember the strategies I told you?"
"Hai, for Chouji I must use…" began the blonde
Hinata´s training
Hinata came to the compound after the preliminaries.
"Hinata-sama" Greeted the guard while bowing to her
"Ko-san" Hinata greeted him
"Hiashi-sama waits for you in the dojo" Told the branch member to the heiress
"Tha-nk you" Answered Hinata
She began walking thru the compound to the dojo, when she arrived she saw her father training with her sister, she sat on a suitable position and waited until they finished.
"Hanabi that`s enough" Said Hiashi
"Hai otou-sama" Answered his younger daughter politely
Hiashi sat and motioned Hinata to sit in front of him.
"I hope that you didn´t embarrassed the clan on the chuunin exams"
"No o-otou-sama, I am o-on the fi-finals"
"Was there a preliminary round?" Asked her father coldly
"Hai O-otou-sa-sama" Hinata answered meekly
"Who did you fight?" He continued to ask
"Shi-shikamaru-san"
"Nara-san, a long range fighter, how did you win?" He asked
"I u-used a chakra co-conductive senbon t-to inflict Jyuken damage a-at distance"
Hiashi raised an eyebrow "Show me"
Both of them went to the center of the dojo and took their stances after a bow, Hiashi noted that her trowing stance was modified to the normal one of the jyuken, her hands were positioned similarly to Haku´s, with the senbon mirroring it to.
Hinata threw three senbon charged with charka, he noted that instead of charging them to emulate their natural form the charka formed a blunt outline.
Hiashi evaded one only letting it grasp him slightly, caught another and let the other hit him on his other arm, every senbon did the same kind of damage that an equivalent Jyuken damage would do.
"What is your maximum range?" Her father asked
"With cha-chakra conducting senbon 50 me-meters, with n-normal ones 5 m-meters" She told him
'Impressive, the only other Hyuga to begin this kind of attacks surrendered at 3 meters' "Good, if you manage to increase the range up to 15 meters on normal senbon, it is sure that this attacks will be included on the traditional Jyuken" he stated
"Otou-sama?" She asked surprised
"This kind of attacks were researched by the original creators of the Jyuken, but they had a block on 3 meters when most of their designed katas required 15 meters as maximum range" He explained to the girl
Hinata was surprised, the clan had already tried, but instead of continuing to try, when they tought it impossible to continue they just occulted it like any failed experiments on Jyuken.
Not only that, if a Hyuga has an unique and powerful ability, enough to impress both clan head and clan council, they can assure they stay at the main house, if Hinata masters this skill to the point of acceptable she will never have to fear the caged bird seal on her life, even if she fails to become clan head.
"H-hai Otou-sama" She told him
"Your training schedule for the month will be intensive Jyuken training with me in the morning and your own personal training on the afternoons" He told her
"Hai" Answered the blue haired girl
"You are dismissed" he told her and she speeded to her room to rest because tomorrowshe will begin an intense training regime.
On the mornings she got training on traditional Jyuken, particularly the Eight Trigrams: Vacuum Palm, because she had Shino as her first opponent and he is a long range figther.
It took 2 weeks to increase the range of her Senbon Jyuken to 10 meters but she got a roadblock, she began to experiment with senbon of different fabricants until she got a steady 15 meters range 3 days before the finals, the Hyuga council decided that they will only accept her new skills after her performance on the finals.
Haku's traning
Naruto and Haku were hiding behind a tree, why? Because of the many shards of ice the jutsu of Haku made, it is disturbingly effective.
"Never thought this jutsu would have this effect" Said a surprised Haku
"Yeah, it's pretty lethal" Commented the blond sword user
"Easily A-Rank anti-personal jutsu" She said
"How much chakra takes?" Asked the boy
"The same amount a Water Clone, it just requires more concentration" The ice user answered
"Wow" He whistled
"Maybe I can perform it 5 per time" She commented
"Cool!" He said excited
"But I would need someone to protect me" The older girl commented
"Don't worry Haku-chan I will protect you" He immediately told her
"Thank you Naruto-sama" She told him
A/N: As you saw in this chapter, Danzo has made several moves to make Naruto a living target for Kiri, he is just trying to take away the power of the Kyubi from the Hokage because he has something, maybe not as powerful but more stable, easier to train and I´m not talking about Sasuke, Sasuke just gave him the idea.
Sorry for the wait, but I had important stuff at school
