I've decided to start underlining jutsu's and magics, to make them more distinct, like this:
Shadow Clone Jutsu!
Also, in regards to how jutsu's will be named, I'm going to mostly use their english names, unless it's something everyone knows. For Example:
Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!
Wood Style: Deep Forest Emergence!
Ryupou: Sen Ryu!
Shinra Tensei!
Thanks for the support, and enjoy the next chapter!
After Hagoromo left, we now find Natsu slowly walking back to the cave. He was considering just floating there in six paths sage mode, but he decided that Asura's chakra shouldn't just be wasted like that. He started to wonder about Madara. I wonder what I will learn from Madara? What was he even good at? Fire Release? All dad told me about him during the war was him using his sharingan and rinnegan techniques, as well as a few bloodline jutsu's that I can't use, or already know.
Natsu finally reached the cave, he found Igneel, Madara, and Mu eating dinner around a fire. He walked up to the campfire and sat down beside Igneel in his normal spot. Madara looked at him with a raised eyebrow.
"I suppose your training with Hagoromo went well?" He asked.
Natsu leaned back against Igneel with his hands behind his head. "Yeah, it was fine. I even got this cool eye called the rinnegan. Pretty sweet, huh?" Natsu said with a grin.
Madara looked shocked. "Hagoromo gave you the rinnegan?!" He exclaimed.
Natsu looked confused. "Well, yeah. It's only have of Indra's power though, so I'm only able to use three paths. But I also got half of Asura's power! So I can do cool stuff like sage art wood release, and six paths sage mode!" Natsu yelled.
Madara smirked and shook his head. "Lucky brat. So which paths can you use then?" He asked.
"I can use the Deva path, the Animal path, and the Outer path." Natsu responded.
Madara looked impressed. "Not bad kid, but you're training with me starts tomorrow, so you'd better be ready."
"Alright, what time should I be up at?" Natsu asked.
"Ohh, about seven sounds good." Madara responded.
Natsu sighed. "God damnit."
THE NEXT MORNING
Natsu woke up fifteen minutes early to get ready. He put on his clothes, unsealed his gourd, and walked to the front entrance to wait. About ten minutes later, Madara suddenly appeared beside him out of thin air.
"So, ready to start, brat?" Madara asked with a smirk.
Natsu sighed, and then smirked. "Yeah sure, Madara-teme."
Madara ga a massive tick mark on his forehead. "WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME YOU BRAT?!" Madara yelled.
Natsu smirked as he walked away towards the forest. "Nothing, sensei."
Madara caught up to him. "Good. Now, while we're walking, let's talk about your training. I'm guessing the old man didn't teach you any shinobi skills, correct?" Madara asked.
Natsu nodded his head and kept silent.
"Well then, for the first month we'll work on your basics. You already know things such as tree climbing and kunai throwing, right?"
Natsu nodded yet again.
"Thank god, that stuff is soooo boring. Moving on, I'll be teaching you taijutsu, as well as some of the basic ninjutsu that everyone your age should know. I also know a really great way for someone with huge chakra pools like you to learn fast, but I'll talk about that when we get there."
Natsu nodded for the third time.
AT WHATEVER PLACE MADARA THOUGH WOULD BE GOOD FOR TRAINING
"The first thing we're going to work on is four basic jutsu that every shinobi should know, no matter what. Madara explained.
"Alright, what are they? Natsu asked.
"They are known as the Body Replacement, Clone, Transformation, and Body Flicker." Madara explained.
"Alright, cool. So what do they do?" Natsu asked.
(Don't really feel like explaining this. Feels like a waste of reading time. If you don't know what they do, look em up.)
"Ok," Natsu said. "They sound pretty useful. So what's this 'great' way of learning super fast?"
Madara smirked. "Simple. Remember how clones are just illusions?"
Natsu nodded.
"Well, there is another clone jutsu that can make physical clones, capable of fighting, and doing menial tasks and chores. However they can be knocked out with a single blow."
"Cool, but I still don't see how this helps me learn faster."
(INSERT MADARA EXPLAINING THE WHOLE CONCEPT OF SHADOW CLONES)
"So you're saying that since I have massive chakra pools thanks to Asura, I can just make thousands of shadow clones, and therefor learn a thousand times faster? Natsu asked.
"Yes. That is exactly what I am saying." Madara replied, completely straight faced.
"SWEET! LET'S GET STARTED!" Natsu exclaimed.
Shadow Clone Jutsu!
Madara sighed. A thousand and one Natsus... What have I gotten myself into...
ONE MONTH LATER
Natsu learned shinobi skills incredibly fast through the usage of shadow clones. He mastered all the basic jutsu, except the Clone, since he could already use Shadow Clones. Even Madara was proud of how fast he progressed, going as far as to say that he was as good as Sasuke with and without a sword when they fought during the Fourth Great Shinobi War. The taijutsu style Madara decided to teach Natsu was the Gentle Fist. Normally, this requires a byakugan to use effectively, but since Natsu has a rinnegan, he memorized all the human chakra and pressure points. While he was training his Gentle Fist, Natsu realized that hitting chakra points would be completely useless in this world, as he was the only being with chakra. To make up for this, Madara had Natsu go to a nearby city to inspect the mages living there. When Natsu looked at them using the rinnegan, he could vaguely see that there were fourty four essential points in a magic container. He assumed that if he hit them all while pushing magic into his hands, he could effectively shut down someone's magic container. Natsu returned to his training, and decided to recreate one of the Hyuuga's original Gentle Fist techniques, the Eight Trigrams: Sixty Four Palms. However, since he only needed fourty four hits to shut down someone's magic container, he decided to call his technique Eleven Trigrams: Fourty Four Palms.
With his taijutsu and basic training done, Madara decided to tell him what they would be training next. Natsu was currently napping under a tree, after a hard day of training. Well, he was napping, but Madara was kind enough to 'wake' him up by cutting down the tree he was resting on.
Natsu shot up, looking annoyed. "Oi! What the hell was that for Madara-teme?!"
Madara sighed. "You want to know what we're training in next, don't you?"
"Yeah, of course!" Natsu exclaimed.
"Well, first take this." Madara said as he handed Natsu a piece of paper.
Natsu sweat dropped. "... Why do I need paper?"
Madara smirked. "It's called chakra paper, kid. Push some chakra into it."
Natsu held his small piece of chakra paper, and pushed his chakra into it. About two seconds later, the paper suddenly cut into two seperate pieces, one of them turning to ash, and the other crumbling. Natsu gasped, surprised for a second before resuming his deadpan expression.
"Cool, The paper got wrecked. How does this help train me?"
Madara smirked yet again. "Those are your chakra affinities, fire, earth, and wind. It's incredibly rare to have that many actually." Madara assumed a thinking position for a second, before speaking again. "Hmm... your rinnegan should of given you all five natures automatically. I assume it didn't because you only received half the power of Indra." I also assumed that's the reason why Hagoromo had Mu come with us... Madara thought.
"So we're going to be learning elemental jutsu I presume? Probably fire, since that's what your specialty is." Natsu said.
"Yes, you are correct." Madara said. A few seconds later, Madara face palmed and sighed. "It still baffles me how you can go from idiot to genius in the span of two seconds."
Natsu grinned. "Guess that's my special ability!"
TWO WEEKS LATER
Natsu can now use all fire release techniques that Madara knows. His favourites were Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation, and Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet. He had also noticed a few differences between his Fire Dragon's Roar and his fire release jutsu. For one, his Fire Dragon's Roar was exponentially hotter than his fire release, more than double the temperature in fact. On top of that, he could chose who would be affected by his Fire Dragon's Roar, as well as control the temperature. However his fire release jutsu were far more versatile, doing things such as lighting a match, to wide-scale destruction. Another difference, was that his fire jutsu packed way more of a physical force than his Fire Dragon's Roar, due to the fact that it was created by chakra instead of eternano.
Madara had also decided to teach Natsu a few of the wind and earth jutsu that he knew, such as Wind Release: Vacuum Bullets, and Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall. But Natsu still preferred to use fire release. Right now, Natsu and Madara were walking back to the cave, after nearly creating a forest fire with his fire jutsu. It wasn't until they finally reached the den, that Madara talked to Natsu.
"Hey Natsu, have you heard of two people known as Obito Uchiha, and Itachi Uchiha?" Madara asked.
Natsu pondered this for a second before answering. "Yeah, dad told me Itachi was an undercover agent, and Obito was the guy you manipulated to help you during the war."
"Yeah, that's right. Well anyways, Obito felt really bad about, y'know, almost destroying the entire world, so he decided to let you have his sharingan, to help you save this world." Madara said.
Natsu was currently in genius mode, so he didn't react. "Hmm... that'll be useful. But where does Itachi fit in to this?" Natsu asked.
Madara sighed. "It's kind of dumb, really. Itachi felt that he couldn't be outdone by 'that idiot' and also decided to give you his eyes."
Natsu sweat dropped. "Wait, how am I going to get two pairs of eyes in my head at the same time?!" Natsu exclaimed.
"Well... um.. you see, Hagoromo sort of combined them both into one pair..." Madara explained.
Natsu raised an eyebrow. "Well, I certainly didn't know that was possible. I assume my eyes will just morph into the sharingan, but what will happen to the rinnegan?" Natsu asked.
"You assume correct. As for your rinnegan, it will morph into the rinnesharingan." Madara said.
"Based on this new information, I also assume that these next two weeks will be used to train my sharingan?" Natsu asked.
"Yes. Now, close your eyes, and channel chakra into them." Madara told him.
Natsu did as Madara asked, and closed his eyes. When he channeled his chakra to them, he felt a slight tingling feeling, followed by a brief sting. Finally, he opened his eyes. and pulled out a kunai to use as a mirror. He gasped at what he saw. His right eye now had pure black sclera, with absolutely no white showing. In the middle, was what looked like a six pointed, red shuriken. Three of the shuriken's blades were on a curve, and looked like waves. They were seperated by the three other blades, which pointed straight out, before turning at a fourty five degree angle, and curving back towards the center. (A/N: Imagine Obito's eye and Itachi's eye stacked on top of each other.)
Madara raised an eyebrow when he looked. "Hmm... To my knowledge, you're the only person other than Sasuke to have your sharingan colours reversed." Madara said.
Natsu looked worried. "Will that affect them in any way?" Natsu asked.
Madara shook his head. "Not that I'm aware of."
Natsu breathed a sigh of relief, before looking worried again. "Wait, won't I eventually go blind with these eyes?" Natsu asked.
Madara shook his head again. "No, Itachi's eyes were already at the stage of Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, so you'll be fine."
TWO WEEKS LATER
Natsu mastered his sharingan with the help of Madara. Through his sharingan, Natsu is able to use Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, Kamui, and Susano'o. He also learned sharingan genjutsu, and decided to use crows as the base of his illusions, in honour of Itachi.
But now the time for Madara to leave has come, and here we find them exchanging final goodbyes.
"Well kid, I gotta go back now. It's been fun teachin ya." Madara said.
Natsu chuckles. "It's been fun learning. Before you go though, I want you to tell Kakashi something when you eventually meet him." Natsu said.
Madara raised an eyebrow. "Oh? And what is it that you want me to tell him?" Madara asked.
"Tell him that I remade his original technique, but with magic." Natsu said with a thousand watt smile.
Madara smirked. "I'll be sure to do that."
Natsu suddenly looked at the floor, depressed. "I'm gonna miss you Madara."
Madara laughed. "You've been talking to a spirit this entire time, there's nothing to miss to be honest." Madara said.
Madara continued. "I got one thing to say to you before I go."
Natsu looked at him questioningly. "And what's that?"
"Try to make friends, don't walk alone as I did." Madara said, as he slowly disappeared.
Natsu tried not to cry, but ultimately failed. "I'll try... Madara-teme..."
