A/N: This is chapter 9 of Kitsune Saiyan Refurbished. I hope you like it. Just so you know, if I use descriptions instead of dialogue, it just means the dialogue is the same as in canon.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Dragon Ball Z.
Chapter 9:
It took a few hours to reach Tazuna's house, where they could finally rest. It took several more hours for Kakashi to wake up and deliver some bad news: Zabuza was still alive, and he decided to give them some training he thought would be useful. He told them to meet out at the edge of the forest for the training and that he would explain it then.
team 7 reached the edge of the woods and waited for Kakashi, who ambled up with crutches.
"Now, team. The first part of our training is tree climbing. Using just your chakra, you'll walk or run up the side of the tree. The further you get, the closer you'll be to the next part of the training. We should have a week or two for this, so don't worry about getting it on the first day. Oh, yes. Use a kunai to mark your progress and act as a bench mark. For every mark you make, work to surpass that mark. One final thing: You need to regulate your chakra properly. Too much and you'll be blown back. Too little and you won't stick at all." Kakashi explained as his team nodded, drawing kunai. The three dashed at three different trees. Sakura started moving up and reached all the way to the top, while Naruto and Sasuke reached about midway before failing. They both scratched the trees and jumped off. "Good work, you three. Continue practicing until you can run up and down several times in succession."
The three nodded, with Sakura giving a sigh as she made her way back down to rest. Naruto and Sasuke continued working well into the evening, but eventually made it to the top.
The next day was the same, they did tree climbing for as long as they could, and by the end of the day, completed the training to Kakashi's satisfaction.
"Well done. Now we'll work on the next stage: water walking. Follow me." Kakashi said as he led them some way into the woods, to a stream. "This step involves walking on water by putting out a constant stream of chakra and adjusting to the water's movement and depth. Too much and you'll rocket off. Too little and you'll sink. I figured you'd want to wear something more suited for swimming so I came prepared." He pulled out and opened a sealing scroll, unsealing swimwear. There were two pairs of trunks and one female one piece. "Go behind the trees and change before getting started." the three nodded and left one at a time, taking a total of ten minutes to change before the three were ready and made their way out to the water's edge. "Oh, yes. Should you complete this, you'll be able to channel chakra much easier, allowing you to use more powerful jutsus." The three nodded and made their way out. Sakura nearly fell in on several occasions, while Naruto rocketed off. Sasuke was the only one to get it first try.
"Nice one, Sasuke. Naruto and Sakura, keep practicing until you can make it out to the middle of the stream without falling in or rocketing off." Kakashi told them as he walked away with his crutches. Naruto and Sakura kept practicing while Sasuke went to work on a new jutsu. It took a couple of days, but Naruto and Sakura got the exercise down. pon showing Kakashi, he smiled.
"Excellent. Now you three. it's time for the real training. With the tree climbing and water walking down, you should be able to put more power into your techniques, and even use techniques you never thought you could. As it is, I'll be teaching you each something from my old team. Naruto, you and I will work on Minato-Sensei's Rasengan. Sasuke, you'll be given my Chidori to work on, but don't use it in battle until you obtain the sharingan. Sakura, I don't have much, but I think the Magen: Narakumi no Jutsu will work for now. I'll create a couple clones to help work with you on these." He made a cross seal and two Kage Bunshin appeared, Sasuke and Sakura walking with them.
"Now, Naruto. What I'm going to teach you is going to be very difficult, and I don't expect you to get it right away. In fact, it took Minato-Sensei three years to make it, and it took Jiraiya-Sama three months to learn. Quite frankly, should it take you less than a month, I'll be astounded. This comes in a three step process. The first step is making a water balloon explode by just spinning your chakra." Using the same summoning scroll, he made a basket of water balloons appear. "I was always intending on teaching this to you, even if you weren't my student. Now, back to the matter at hand." He grabbed one of the water balloons and held it out for Naruto to see, where it suddenly got all bumpy before exploding.
"Take these water balloons and work on making them explode by just swirling your chakra. If you can do that, we'll move on to stage two." He smiled before standing back to watch over him as he worked on the stage.
This continued for the rest of the time they had. each day, Sasuke and Sakura would work with Shadow Clones on their new techniques while the real Kakashi would work with Naruto. it took until the end of the training period, but each one got their respective jutsus down. In fact, one of the times where he super-charged the Rasengan gave Naruto an idea for another Ki-turned-chakra technique: the Chou Kamehameha.
It was finally time for the rematch with Zabuza as the group headed to the bridge. They found the place deserted with Zabuza and Haku waiting for them.
"It's about time you showed up. I was starting to get tired of waiting. It's time for our rematch, Kakashi. Haku, you take the kiddies." Haku nodded.
"Naruto, Sasuke, you take Haku. Sakura, you guard Tazuna. I'll take Zabuza like he wants." Kakashi said as the three nodded. Naruto and Sasuke dashed forward as Haku ran to meet them.
"You can't win against me." Haku said through his mask. "I'm much too fast for you." Naruto smiled.
"We'll just see about that!" He exclaimed.
The rematch between Team 7 and Zabuza and Haku has begun. Who will win? Find out next time.
