Naruto focused on wanting to help heal the old man, pushing more and more of his will into the energy he was feeding to the doctor, causing the pale green glow to spread further along his arm and slowly covering his entire body.

The seal was glowing brighter as it continued to shift and twist. The Doctor wasn't prepared for the surge of Chakra to enter him, as he stumbled slightly from the force as he guided the power through the jutsu to heal their beloved Hokage.

Sarutobi, felt the chakra flow over and into him as it fought and purified the cancerous cells in his body. The fatigue and strain he had associated with just getting older began to fade. What seemed like mere seconds was nearly an hour of chakra and spiritual energy flowing between the three males, when Naruto collapsed in fatigue. Breaking the connection, and ending the jutsu.

The doctor stumbled, as he turned to catch the now sleeping boy, "I don't know what that was... I've never felt chakra like that even with other medics." He pondered out loud as he looked down at the whiskered boy in his arms.

The Hokage laughed slightly, "Naruto has always been something special," 'But even I noticed the difference, that wasn't chakra.' He kept the thought to himself. As the changes in the seal flashed across his mind.

"I want him to train here a while longer before I give him any certifications," 'That and I want to see what else this bloodline of his can do.' The doctor looked at the Hokage, " The Hospital and I will pay for a six month C rank mission, for his training. Less any equipment and supplies he uses during that time."

"I'll let him know, but I would like to keep the uniqueness of his healing affinity quiet until we know for sure the extent of it." Sarutobi mused, as he stood up from the table feeling years younger.

"I'll run some tests now and let you know the results, if it's truly a bloodline he may one day rival and surpass Tsunade." The doctor said as he drew a few samples of blood quickly and left them labeled only as subject A.

"That will be fine my boy, he will still have to train with his..."

"*yawn* S'alright Jij..I can do both no problem," He said as he stretched feeling just a little tired but fine. Though he rubbed the seal as it was still tingling against his skin.

/Elsewhere at the time of the Jutsu/

An older man with long spiky white hair was sitting on his haunches looking over a large scroll with a sealing array displayed over it, two ancient toads stood on either side of him. "I don't know if you should Jiraiya-kun..." The male toad said as he leaned on a staff.

"Pa, I just feel I have to open the seal more, he's young enough his coils will handle the excess chakra better and he can adapt to it." Jiraiya shook his head, "If we wait to much longer any adjustments might kill him."

The female looked between the other two, "Pa let him do what he feels is right, after all it's better than teaching the boy how to spy on women." She huffed as the other two sweat dropped.

"I'm not going to open it all the way but I'm going to just loosen the seal enough that it will continue to open wider as he pulls on it." He looked between them with a stern expression. "If he can absorb it before they start actively hunting him the better." With that said he placed his hands down on the seals and pushed some charka into them causing a few symbols to shift with his now turning hands. " There, I don't feel any evil or explosions of death so everything worked out."

/Back with Naruto/

The hokage saw the rubbing and arched a brow slightly, "Is there anything else we need to know?"

The doctor shook his head, "Other than I want Naruto to scan you daily for the next few weeks to make notes on the progress." He handed the Hokage some forms, "It would seem less obvious than you coming in here everyday for a check up. These are pretty self explanatory but I want one filled out for every scan."

The Hokage looked at Naruto, "Let's go back to my office and we can finish working out your missions and training with your team there." Both bowed to the doctor before leaving, making their way quickly to the Tower and into the old mans office.

Sarutobi flashed through a few seals and erected a privacy jutsu, "Naruto, let me see the seal again." Naruto lifted the shirt and it became obvious in a few glances to the Hokage as to what happened. 'He opened the seal more, he's the only one that could with the 'Key'.' "Well your seal is altering to accommodate your usage better."

Naruto scratched his head as he pulled his shirt back down, "I didn't know they could do that... I've only read about direct alteration and a control seal alteration." Looking down at his stomach, he pondered over that along with the strange feeling when it happened.

Little did either of them or Jiraiya know what that one event did. Yet very soon they would see for better or worse, the outcome of playing with a seal that was twice divine.

Several months had passed since Naruto started a more in depth training in Medic jutsu, finding that he really liked this so much more than fighting. So he again started sending the 'Super Clone' to his team training while he himself attended at the Hospital and continued to train on his own. Even his now required time with the Hokage had made him happy, as he continued to scan and with out saying anything using the mystic palm technique to take the strain out of the man aging body.

It was on one of these times that Sarutobi was paying more attention to what Naruto was doing, as he had started to notice that he woke up better, felt stronger, and even looked less old if that was possible. It was then he noticed that Naruto was sending waves of his healing energy into him during the scans. "Naruto have you noticed that you are pushing more of your unique healing chakra into my body when you do that?"

Naruto looked up a bit sheepishly, "Uhm... yea I have, I mean I just wanted you to be comfortable but I've been leaving that out of my reports. It's just...I don't want to loose you Jiji."

He couldn't help himself, Sarutobi reached out and pulled Naruto into a tight hug. "You are so much like your parents. I'll tell you the exact thing I told them. All things live and all things die, but it's the people who loved them that keep them alive in the hearts."

Naruto sniffled a little bit, After Jiji Anko and Iruka were the closest things he had to any type of family. "I know, but that doesn't make it easy I really only ever had you until Iruka and and Anko-nii-chan..."

"And I'm sure you will have more friends, and your own family someday if you work hard and trust your heart." He let the boy go and looked sadly at his deask, "Now how about you help me with some of this paperwork?"

Naruto laughed and with out thinking made another super clone, "Help Jiji with the paper work."

"Sure thing boss," the clone started filling papers into several stacks, leaving the Hokage to stare for a minute before he created a few shadow clones himself. " Naruto when did you learn the Shadow Clone?"

Spinning around, "Uhm...Anko taught it to me the day of team assignments, so I could send on there and train with her.. don't be mad at her, since it's not like Kakashi has been teaching any of us anything other than Sasuke." Naruto fumed a little bit, "I'm I could see if Sasuke had his stupid eyes working, but he doesn't and then there's Sakura.. she won't do anything other than coo after Sasuke.."

Sarutobi listened to Naruto rant, knowing that's how it was really going. The boy may have stayed under the radar with most of the villagers the past few years, but the Council still have their claws sunk into his life. Even with the laws in place to give Naruto a normal life it failed, parents telling their children to stay away from him, adults shunning or beating him. He was amazed at how gentle the boy turned out, and thankful.

"You will do fine, and once you finish your medic nin training I can send you with other teams on some missions when the need permits, and maybe out to some of the surrounding towns on your own." He looked at the form one of his clones was holding and smiled, "But for now, I will go a head and make you a Tokubetsu Genin, Since you are a Medi-nin."

Naruto had stopped ranting when Sarutobi started speaking, "You don't have to do that Jiji."

"I don't but I will, I reward my Ninja for their hard work." He smiled, "Plus, it will give us a reason to hide your bloodline."

Naruto turned to look at him strangely, "Blood line?"

"Yes, after you passed out, from helping heal my cancer. I had the doctor run a test on your blood to see if it was either from the seal or something different that gave your chakra a strange affinity to healing." The hokage pulled a file from his desk handing it to himself. " What the test show, and from my own intuition I would say that you inherited the Uzamaki bloodline with Water. Seeing as they are Descended from the Senju clan. But with the addition of the Kyuubi who isn't tied to an element as most Bijuu are I can only think that it did have a special ability, that merged with you and your bloodline."

Taking the lab reports from the Hokage Naruto looked over them seeing that he did have the anomaly for a kekkai genkai. With how many scrolls on water jutsu and techniques he had in the den, along with how easy they seemed he could see that but how would that twist into healing? "Jiji, how would that add a healing affinity or I guess a an actually Healing Chakra bloodline?"

Sitting down in his chair, he looked to the blond."Well, remember how we discovered how your seal splits the demons energy into physical and spiritual energy?" Naruto nodded before he continued. " The kyuubi is the strongest of the Bijuu, but unlike them it was more Youkai or demonic chakra than a physical body."

Naruto scrunched his brows, "So that means I'm getting more spiritual energy than physical so.."

"So, That means you have adapted to actually drawing on your spirit energy than your chakra." He rubbed his chin, " I would venture to guess you will eventually be unable to use chakra as you wouldn't be able to mix the energies together because of having such large reserves." Looking out the window, "However you are adapting to a degree, that you may only be able to use certain techniques, like Medical Jutsu and water Jutsu. But that's only a guess but after the Chunnin exams I'll have a good friend of mine look at your chakra and see what he thinks."

Naruto listened and felt a strange sense of loss since chakra is what made a ninja, but then he could still use jutsu they just might be different. He could deal with that, and the fact that meant he would be different even more was itching at the back of his mind, but he clamped down on that being sadly used to it. " Who are you talking about Jiji?"

Folding his fingers, "It's a Monk from the Fire Temple. He knows quite a bit about Spirit techniques and energy." In a very Solemn voice, "It's rare to be able to use that energy and only monks have focused in it enough to have created some techniques with it."

Naruto leaning forward as he looked over the reports, "Alright, As long as I can stay a Ninja.. since I want to be Hokage." He said.

Sarutobi smirked, "That you will, and because of your Bloodline with water, I feel safe giving you the Nidaimes scrolls. No one can know you have them, So find a safe place to hide them." As he stood and walked over to a picture wiping some blood on a seal causing a vault to open. He retrieved two large scrolls. Then handed them to Naruto.

He cradled the scrolls, "thank's Jiji." As his mind started going over all the cool and awesome jutsu he could learn from these scrolls. He would be an awesome ninja, and it would help him protect the few people he loved.

Months had passed as Naruto finished his first bit of training at the Hospital, training on his own, and working on all the scrolls he had secreted away. Having decided that if he was going to have the memories of the training and D-ranks he might as well do some now, and having realized they sucked just as bad as his clones remembered, he sighed as he and the rest of Team Dysfunctional er.. Seven stood in the missions office.

"Ugh.. Please not another D-rank mission... We need something more challenging." He muttered as Iruka began looking through the stacks.

When Sasuke spoke up, "The dobe is is right, I'm an Uchiha I refuse to do anymore of this pathetic missions." He glowered.

Kakashi was a bit worried about that choice, but then maybe this might be what brings them together. Even though he wondered who was teaching Naruto, since it seemed that his hopes for having a team like his were quickly fading. Sasuke was brooding and rather pathetic and repeated the same jutsu over and over, Sakura was well better off not being a Ninja in his mind but she was there to try and secure the Uchiha. Naruto wasn't even needing him.

That bit hurt the most in his heart, he felt that he was failing his Sensei by not being the one to teach Naruto, but the damn council.

Iruka began the sputter at the thought, until the Hokage spoke up. " I think that would be a good thing, as we do have an Escort mission to Wave. It's a C-rank there and back."

"We'll take it, "Naruto almost shouted a bit of his enthusiasm showing through. The hokage smiled it was a small treat for all the hard work Naruto had done, and if Wave was as bad as he had heard the Boy would definitely be of use.

The left except for Naruto, " Jiji you've had this mission for almost two weeks now.."

Sarutobi looked at him, " I know. But there are some things that don't sit right about Wave. I'm sending you because I want you to help establish ties with our Hospital and Wave. Seeing as most of our Doctors are not combat medics and the ones we have are already out on missions."

"Sure thing, Now to wake up the boss." Naruto popped into a cloud of smoke leaving the hokage laughing and Iruka stunned.

"Did he just..."

"Yes, he's been using them to train with his team so he could study for his Medic exams."

Team Seven and the drunken bridge builder traveled through the woods towards Wave, it was a stifled silence as Naruto didn't bother talking to anyone, rather his nose stuck in a scroll. Kakashi was in his little orange book, Sasuke brooding and Sakura looking between the three of them while Tazuna sipped from his jug of cheap sake.

It was later in the day when Sakura dropped back to walk next to Naruto, "What happened to you?"

The blond looked up, " What do you mean 'what happened?' "

"You used to be loud, obnoxious and stupid... Now you're all quiet and training so hard and some how being better than Sasuke."

Naruto laughed, "I've always been better than him." His blue eyes looking over into hers. " As for how it's because I trained everyday since I was five, I worked hard, and I did it so I could help people." Rolling his scroll up and placing it in his pocket, noticing Kakashi listening in. "I do this so I can protect others, and keep my precious people safe. Why are you doing this?"

She stared at him, "Why?" She thought about it. Well at first it was because she idolized Tsunade, and wanted to be a Kunoichi so badly, but now all she ever did was chase Sasuke. She didn't train like they did, she didn't do anything. "I don't know."

"That's not good enough. Fighting for yourself doesn't get you anywhere, doing this because you might want to be a ninja won't do it either." He sighed as he shook his head, "Until you have a real purpose that pushes you you will be nothing, worth nothing and have nothing." With that said he pulled his scroll back from his pocket and sped up leaving her behind.

Kakashi sighed, 'That was a little bleak, but he hit home.' He thought as he watched Sakura, he had hoped her to be the medic but Naruto's control was far beyond hers, and his training was the proof of that. "He's got a point, when you're ready to be a ninja I'll be ready to actually teach you."

The night grew as they made there camp, each doing what they were told. Even Tazuna seemed subdued, as he had overheard Naruto talking to Sakura. He couldn't understand what would make a boy that blunt. But with a silent meal they went to rest, taking turns at watch.

Morning came to a once again silent group, as the packed and left to continue on to wave. It was much later in the day, when Naruto noticed the silence went beyond just them, even the forest was quiet. Tucking his scroll away he pulled another one to read, yet this one wasn't words, it was several different seal tags.

The puddle in the middle of the road caught his attention, instantly knowing it wasn't water. Looking to see if anyone else noticed, only Kakashi seemed to slow down to be in the back. As they walked passed the puddle he 'accidentally' dropped some of his seal tags into it. Casuing Kakashi to raise his visible brow.

Naruto turned, and winked at Kakashi, "Kai." the to slips of paper, pulsed before the exploded in a flash of strong light. The sound of two voices crying out in pain, as the genjutsu was dispelled, leaving two men holding their eyes. To which Kakshi quickly chopped in the back of the neck before tying them up.

"Naruto how did you know?"

Rubbing the back of his head, "Well one it hasn't rained in like two weeks, two the animals were to quiet, and I sme-sensed them."

Kakashi caught the slip and decided to talk with him after they made camp, "I see well it seems your training is paying off. I'm glad one of my students is working hard." He eye smiled, sensing the small amount of killing intent leaking from Sasuke at the comment.

Naruto watched as Kakashi drug the two men off to 'question' them. Which apparently involved much screaming on their parts. Before he came back with a hard look in his eyes, "Tazuna-san we need to talk before we go any further." Leading the old man a distance away as they spoke.

Eventually coming back, "Alright, this is no longer a C-rank mission. High B bordering on A, we can go back now."

Naruto looked between the old man and Kakashi, "You can go back but, I am going." As he crossed his arms.

Sakura seemed torn, as Sasuke stepped forward, "If the idiots staying so am I." Causing the other three to look at him like he was talking about himself.

Which surprised Naruto as he noticed the incredulous look on Sakura's face, 'maybe there is some hope for her.' His thoughts were echoed by Kakashi. "It seems we are going on, now let's get there and do what we came to do."

Eventually the group reached the watery border of Wave, meeting a man with a boat. " Get in and be quiet." As he bowed to Tazuna, and looked at the foursome of Ninja.

The boat moved slowly along the surface of the water, a fine mist covering their presence as they landed on the other side. Looking around they motioned for Tazuna to lead the way from here. Following the man through the woods, it seemed they were home free, until Sasuke threw a kunai into the bushes, startling a white rabbit out of hidding.

Naruto and Kakashi looked at it before coming to the same conclusion as Sakura started yelling, "Sasuke you scared the poor thing." Scooping it into her arms. The faint whirring of a something passing through the air was heard by Naruto as he jumped and pulled Tazuna to the ground as Kakashi grabbed the other two.

A large sword was lodged in the tree where their heads would have been."Sharingan Kakashi, it's no wonder the Demon brothers never came back." A tall bald man, stood there with an open vest. The lower half of his face was cover with bandages and the a slashed Kiri headband rested around his neck.

Kakashi stood up slowly, as he noticed Naruto was looking around, more smelling around if it looked right. "Zabuza Momochi, Demon of the Bloody Mist..."

"It's good that you know who I am, not let me kill the old man and we can go our separate ways."

"Not going to happen, " Reaching up he lifted his headband revealing the single red eye with three tomoes swirling in it. "Stay back and guard Tazuna, I'll handle this."

"The sharingan already, I feel honored." He laughed as he pulled his sword from the tree, slinging it over his shoulder. Unleashing his killing intent, and Kakashi doing the same. That was enough to cause the three Gennin to shift, Sakura was frozen, as Naruto tensed. Sasuke on the other hand was reaching for his Kunai wanting it to end.

Naruto for his part was impartial to Sasuke's actions, yet the Medic in him forced his hand to reach out and stop him. " Pathetic, Uchiha. Killing intent to much for you?" His voice was flat, but it served to cut through to the Boys brain and let him focus to push through it.

Zabuza used the hidden mist jutsu, which made Naruto's lip twitch holding in some amusement. " Let me guess, There are eight points in the human body.." He quipped just as Zabuza started his speech. Both fading into the mist.

"What do you know about it runt," He said as he tried to sense the boy that took away his moment of fear.

"Enough to know that with out the mist...you'll fail." Naruto's voice coming from several points, "Especially against someone like me." As the mist seemed to rush past Everyone to a single point before vanishing into a scroll that he rolled up and tucked into his pocket. "But then paying attention to me cost you."

Naruto smirked as Kakashi came up behind Zabuza a Kunai to the man's throat. Only for him to laugh and fall into water. "A water clone?" Just as he felt, a sword cleave through Kakashi crumbled into dust.

The sounds of clashing metal and occasional moments of either Jounin staring at the other with crossed blades was all most could see, though Naruto's eyes kept flicking as he followed the motions. Watching them move closer to the water, curious.

It was when they stopped and Zabuza smirked that Naruto knew something was wrong. Just as the water flew up and surround Kakashi and Zabuza's hand. "Now to deal with the brats and the old man."

Naruto, twitched. "Sakura protect Tazuna... I'm getting our Sensei out of there." Sasuke look at him like he was a bug, before he snorted and took off running towards Zabuza. "Good I needed a distraction." Before he started running through hand seals.

While Sasuke continued to barrage Zabuza with shurriken and Fire jutsu, which honestly wasn't going to work out to well. Sakura watched Naruto moving quickly through seals, and was curious as to what jutsu needed so many, before he took off running to the water slamming his hands into it, "Uzamaki Secret style: Whirlpool Prison." Before he jumped back forcefully from the water

The water rippled as it shifted along the surface, seeking a chakra source strong enough to latch on to. It's not a difficult jutsu however the chances of it backfiring on you are very high. The jutsu was designed to latch onto a chakra source like a genjutsu, trapping them inside feeding of the chakra until it's gone.

Zabuza turned hearing the Jutsu to see it moving towards him. Surprised and shicked he jumped out of the way releasing Kakashi who did the same very quickly. "I thought that clan was dead."

"I'm Naruto Uzamaki," He looked at him his fingers glowing slightly with chakra.

"Then I'm going to have the honor of ending your cla.." He didn't get to finish as two needles pricked into his neck moments before Kakashi's blade would have pierced his back.

A person wearing a Hunter-nin's mask landed moments later, "Thank you for your assistance. I'll be returning him to Kiri." quickly vanishing.

Kakashi covered his eye, and Naruto scoffed. "I don't know about that... he's not dead." Causing everyone to look at him. " There's a pressure point in the neck that gives a false death trance. It's used in treating full body fractures or tenketsu damage. " He looked at them all before tossing two pills at Kakashi, "Not going to let you be laid up, with to short a time to train."

Taking the pills he nodded to the blond, "Tazuna let's get to your house and rest, we can discuss this tomorrow." feeling the affects of the pills taking over, one was a soldier pill the other was one he wasn't to familiar with, as most ninja didn't carry around chakra suppression pills. But the logic of both made sense, letting the pill trickle enough to give him some strength while his body recovered naturally.
