Chapter 3
After putting Tayuya to sleep Naruto started to think about what he had been through the past couple days and while he was sad and angry that he couldn't save Sasuke and keep his promise to Sakura he was excited about his new found ability and he be damned if he wasn't curious about he could do. But how was he supposed to do that without anyone finding out about it because as much as he believed in Konoha he knew that if anyone found out that the Kyuubi Jinchuriki had special powers heaven knows what could happen next.
'But how do I train in how to use my abilities I mean the only thing that I know now is that I get real hungry when I run too much that can be solved by eating more but what about the rest of it; like am I just fast in a straight line or is my reaction time faster too? There are so many possibilities'
Grinning widely Naruto decided to jump out the window and head to a training ground to test his new ability besides the girl whose name he still didn't know was fast asleep and if she needed him then he would be there in a second. However when he landed on the adjacent roof he saw smoke coming from the lower district it looked like one of the buildings there was on fire
Smirking he thought 'now let's see what I can really do'
The owners of the downtown mall were scared and worried somehow the building how just exploded trapping people inside and help was at least two minutes away and even then with the kind of fire that they were seeing anybody who had family inside was already making funeral plans but that was until an orange blur blew past them and within one minute everyone who was inside was now outside alive and well. After which the blur blew past them again in the direction of the market district and disappeared
Now Naruto just stopped in an alley way smirking at how awesome that was I mean he could see the fire burning but he was able to avoid it with his speed but just as he was about to gloat about how awesome he was he started to smell smoke. But that was impossible he avoided being burned in the fire, so how did he smell smoke?
Looking at his clothes he noticed that they were burnt in some places and his sandals were burnt as well now how did that happen? Could it be that moving at super speed caused his clothes to burn up but if that was the case then he needed a suit or an outfit that could withstand the after effects of his new ability because it would not be funny if he was running around only to stop an realize that he had burnt all his clothes off. That would be a worse fate that the time he kissed Sasuke
Racing back to his apartment he changed clothes then he took to the rooftops heading towards the Hokage Tower after all Tsunade no Baa-chan was the only one who knew his secret so no doubt she would help him
Knock. Knock.
"Come in"
"Hey Baa-chan we need to talk"
"Ah Naruto just the boy I wanted to see"
Now Naruto knew that he had a short fuse but he also knew that Tsunade had a shorter one and given what she could do he had developed a sixth sense for when she was pissed so that he can walk carefully and judging by the sweet, cold tone she used just now was a big sign that she was pissed but what did he do now?
"Uh Baa-chan why are you happy to see me?"
"Well I just got a report of an orange blur saving people in the Downtown mall after it exploded"
Naruto gulped because Tsunade's KI was slowly leaking into the whole room "Baa-chan I can explain"
"Yes please explain why you risked your health and your secret ability in broad daylight especially when you are supposed to be in the hospital watching the girl?"
"Well I saw the smoke and I could not just sit by and watch people get hurt ttebayo"
"Naruto the whole village now knows that there is someone among them with impossible abilities. Now I just got a missive from certain people that are questioning my ability to rule this village if something like this is possible and there are still some who believe that I have been conducting experiments on my men just so that I can build a team loyal only to me"
Naruto gaped "but none of that is true"
"You don't think I know that brat, in our line of work information is power and when an unknown person showcases abilities like yours it raises questions that I can't answer"
"But Baa-chan I just wanted to help them nothing more I did not mean to make trouble for you"
Tsunade sighed and tried to calm herself it after all wasn't the kid's fault entirely he was definitely not the kind of person who could see someone in trouble and simply not do anything because of law or ethics but he needed to be careful because while she could definitely handle Danzo and his monkeys aka the busybodies who were asking those questions, she shuddered to think of what happened when Danzo finds out that the Blur is Uzumaki Naruto it won't end well whatsoever
"I know you didn't brat but you need to make sure that nobody finds out what you can really do"
"I actually need your help with that"
"Oh?"
"Hai when I was running I didn't notice this but by the time I stopped my clothes and shoes were burnt"
"Well that is because of the amount of friction that you generate when you're running"
"Baa-chan is there any way that I can get a suit or something that would help me run at top speeds without having to worry about that friction thing?"
"I don't think that that would be a problem Shizune has been working on a material that could resist heavy fire techniques and still be flexible enough for movements"
"I will take it"
"Brat you are not hearing me. Right now she is working on a material it is not applicable yet"
"Aww man but why is it not ready yet?"
"Because we didn't have any urgent need for a suit like that and because it is damn expensive to get so promise me that you will wait for us to be done before you start saving people"
"Tch fine"
"Good now don't you have somewhere to be right now?"
"Oh right later Baa-chan"
