For the Greater Good Chapter 8
"Umm… What?" Asked Temari not knowing what to do, she had never been asked on a date before because all the boys in Suna were always too scared of her brother Gaara to even approach her. Not only that but she was mostly too focused on being a stronger kunoichi for her father and her village to have time to go out on dates or be sociable. But now this foreign shinobi who looked quite attractive and if intelligence was right and he was the son of the Yondaime, then he was very strong.
"I asked if you would like to have some lunch with me, you know before you have to go do whatever you have to do with your team, I mean there is still about a week before the exams, what are you going to do in that time besides explore the village, I'll show you around if you would like." Naruto explained with a smirk.
"Umm…" Temari turned to Gaara and Kankuro to see what they thought. They were here on a mission and they needed to tread carefully, the future of their village rested on the invasion with the Wind Daimyo cutting their funding again, they needed to display their superiority and this invasion would do just that. Gaara just gave a nod and began to walk away again Kankuro following along. "Umm sure let's get going." Temari said unsure of what was going to happen.
"Great, I know this amazing place a few blocks from here." Said Naruto eyeing the green eyed blonde haired girl which was gathered into four ponytails. Temari's outfit consisted of a single light purple-colored, off-the-shoulders garment that extended to halfway down her thighs, with a scarlet sash tied around her waist. Fishnet was worn over her shoulders and legs, specifically on her right calf and her left thigh; she also wore her black forehead protector around her neck.
Naruto held out his hand and Temari looked at it unsure of what to do again, she was bad at doing anything but being a kunoichi, but instead of just standing there she regained her composure and reached out to hold it not wanting to look like an idiot, she was the Kazekage's daughter, and he was the Hokage's son. Temari needed to keep it together.
"So tell me about yourself Temari." Naruto asked wanting to know about this girl, even though he somewhat knew her in his past. She was a warrior for sure, she was strong and beautiful. Someone that he could actually maybe get close to, in his past he never got close to anybody much, he had defected from his village at the age of sixteen to join a group of S class criminals bent on dominating the world, it didn't leave much time for romance.
"How about you start first to give me an example. It's courtesy to go first if you ask something of somebody." Temari replied not sure of what she should say.
"Well, my name is Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze, I am a gennin, I like my family, my friends, I like to train and study, to make new techniques, I dislike arrogant people who can't back up there talk, I respect people who are trying to get stronger. My dreams for the future are to save the world from itself. And that's mostly all there is to me on a philosophical level, now your turn." Naruto summed it up trying to think of what he might have missed but they were now at the entrance of the restaurant, it was called the Yellow Lantern.
They walked inside and the receptionist began to walk towards them, he gave Naruto a large smile and greeted him. "Mr. Namikaze it's so good to see you again. Shall we get you to the usual table sir?"
"Yes I would appreciate it Delun, and can you tell Hyun, to prepare her specialty, I'm trying to impress the beauty here." Naruto said with a smile wondering how Temari would take the comment.
"Umm, thank you Naruto." Temari said blushing.
Delun led Naruto and Temari up the spiraling staircase that was in the middle of the restaurant, toward the top and put them in a secluded corner with the table off by itself, the tablecloth was elegant and there was a single lantern in the middle burning brightly, the small source of light there.
"Ok it's your turn." Naruto said getting situated into his seat.
"Sure but first tell me why he called you Mr. Namikaze and treats you like you own the place?" Temari questioned finding that weird.
"Well I don't own the place… my father does, he owns a couple of things in Konoha actually, the Namikaze family was one of the families that came to the village very close to the time after it was founded and they did well for themselves here." Naruto moved on to explained how they owned a prestigious weapon shop, a clothing store, some restaurants, and the one that they were at included, beyond that they had numerous investments in other parts of Konoha.
"Wow, so you're basically rich?" Questioned Temari, wondering why he wasn't stuck up.
"I mean my family is but we are not that focused on the wealth, we are a shinobi family at heart so that is the aspect of life that we are most involved with." Naruto explained.
"My family is something like that I guess, my father being the Kazekage didn't really have time to remotely be a father to us with everything going on in Suna, but he made sure that we were trained to be the deadliest ninja that we could become."
"I hate to say this but that doesn't sound much like a childhood, how old are you anyway, years of training to become a killer must be quiet taxing on your psyche." Naruto said not knowing that she was subjugated to being made a killer for years.
"I'm sixteen, and yes it was quite taxing, but we are not as dehumanized as one might think, but my brother Gaara is another matter. I don't tell this to anybody but he kind of scares me, he never sleeps and if he does his biju goes on a rampage, it has caused his mind to become unstable. I really am worried about him, but I don't think I have that right, I want to show him I care for him but I can't ever bring myself to do it." Temari confessed not knowing why she just said that to a foreign shinobi.
"Wow, I think you've been waiting to get that off your chest for a long time huh. But I guess I could understand, in my early childhood I was not so close with my sister, she radiated this sense that I couldn't shake, a while after I told my parents that, they told me why, she was a jinchuriki for the Nine Tailed Fox. But now I can't make fun of her so much for having a fox inside of her, recently I have acquired a biju myself. I now hold the Sanbi, the Three Tailed Turtle."
Temari was absorbing all of this information very quickly and then something hit her, "Wait you are a jinchuriki!? Wait, you hold the Sanbi!? I thought the three tails was held by the Mizukage Yagura, and Konoha shinobi helped the new Mizukage kill him so how do you hold that tailed beast!?" Temari screamed out, the only way he could have gotten that biju was if he was there and was able to seal it in himself, her father got intel that a powerful Konoha shinobi helped to liberate Kirigakure, and it was part of their mission to find candidates who could have been the ones able to do that.
Naruto knowing what she was thinking confirmed it for her, "Yes it was me, I was the one who helped Mei take down Yagura." He gave a smirk at the face she was making; her mouth was making a small circle as it was kept open by her shock.
"But how!? You're barely a gennin! You're a twelve year old fresh out of the academy!" Temari let slip what she knew about Naruto. It was Naruto's turn to give her a suspicious glance.
"How do you know that about me? We look basically around the same age, I'm even taller than you, even if by only a little." Naruto confronted her.
"Umm… Well you know I was briefed a lot on what we could face in Konoha, knowing the family of the Hokage were basics." Temari made a quick excuse, the only reason she knew about the Hokage's family was because the Hokage was the Yellow Flash, his wife the Red Death, his daughter the container for the Nine Tails, and his son killed 13 Kumo jonin at the age of six all by himself, something that she could probably never do. And they were all major players in Konoha, perhaps enough to put a dent in the invasion plans.
"Oh, well that makes sense I guess." Naruto let the subject drop because their food had arrived. Waiters followed by Delun brought out a few plates of food that looked extremely delicious.
Temari began to understand why she had seen so many people downstairs, she wondered if it was as good as it looked, in Suna the food was more of the basics, they valued water and something to eat, after all they resided in a desert, they didn't take luxuries for granted.
"Well Temari dig in, I'm sure you'll love it." Naruto invited with a smile pointing at something that looked like a piece of chicken, surrounded by vegetables and on the side was rice. Temari wondered what to go for first and she didn't waste any time, she began to dig in immediately.
A few minutes in she had eaten everything on all the plates and Naruto was just looking at her with an expression resembling shock and admiration, what he had just witnessed was like a person inhaling very rapidly, but instead of air it was food, she had not even paused to take a drink. "Wow Temari, were you that hungry?" Naruto commented.
"Oh I'm sorry it's just that it was all delicious, we don't have food like this in Suna." Temari apologized when she saw that Naruto hadn't even gotten to eat any of the food.
"It's all right, it's nice to see someone appreciate good food, I don't tell anybody this but I enjoy cooking, I might be too optimistic but I think that it's on par with the food that Hyun makes." Replied Naruto. "Well Temari if you don't mind me calling this a date, I would like to end this date with something that I think is a part of the real us, would you like to finish the evening with a spar at my family's personal training ground?"
"Well Naruto you are a fighter and you like to cook, I wonder what other secrets you hold." Temari was starting to be impressed by this kid, but something was bothering her very much, this kid took down the Mizukage, how did he gain such power at such a young age? She was going to see if he was telling the truth, she would spar with him and test his power. "But yes lets go spar, it's going to be interesting to see what the child of another Kage can do."
"Good, let me take you to my family's house. The training ground is in the back." Naruto grabbed onto her hand again and they left the restaurant thanking Delun on the way out. They were walking along the streets of Konoha making their way to the Namikaze compound, they passed shops and Konoha landmarks that Naruto explained to Temari. Naruto and Temari, were talking about the various stories of history from their respective villages that intrigued the both of them and they were getting along great.
"Oi Naruto, fraternizing with the enemy are we? Come on brother you never understood boundaries, this is crossing the line! Just imagine what dad will think! And mom! You know how she gets about you dating! Not that you have ever had a girlfriend before, but still! Daddy and mom are going to be so mad!" Naoko just rattled off not letting Naruto talk or for Temari to explain themselves.
"Shut up Naoko!" Naruto couldn't handle her blabbering, "What are you doing out here anyway shouldn't you be at home."
"I forgot mom wanted me to bring some flowers home so I'm going to get some from the Yamanaka shop. And what are you doing huh?" Naoko put her hands on her hips giving him a knowing look.
"You know what I was doing Naoko, now leave us alone." Naruto wanted to get away from this embarrassing display that they were putting on.
"Fine then brother but don't have sex with her, you're twelve and she looks way older than you, or are you into that kind of thing ya know with older women, I think they're called cougars. But anyway if you have sex with her I'm telling mom! And then she'll cut your junk off with her super awesome sword! Oh wait daddy wanted me to tell you to meet at training ground 7 tomorrow, he says he has something special to teach us. Anyway bro see ya at home!" Naoko finished and skipped off to the flower shop leaving an extremely embarrassed Naruto and Temari behind.
"I am so sorry about what just happened…" Naruto let out after what seemed like an hour of silence, his red face met hers and they just looked away again. "Come on let's get to sparring and let off some steam."
"Yeah you're right let's go, besides she wasn't so bad beside what she said, she is kind of adorable." Temari tried to lighten the mood, thinking about her own family situation and how they were complete opposites from Naruto.
They continued walking until they reached the large Namikaze compound which impressed Temari but she lived in a compound about the same size so she didn't really show it. Naruto began to walk around toward the back and Temari saw the place where they would be fighting.
"Well this is it, shall we get started?" Naruto asked wondering how she would fair against him.
"For sure." Temari smirked and was already calculating a plan and ways to take him out, she was a mid to long range wind user and she knew close to nothing about his fighting style other than that he was a jinchuriki now, he was extremely powerful, and had been under the tutelage of the Yellow Flash, he could come out to be a formidable opponent.
Temari was never one to wait as she showed Naruto with the massive amount of food she consumed in such a short time. So she made the first move and launched her attack, she extended her war fan and thrust it down once and then many more times in quick succession. Every thrust resulted in blades of wind rushing towards Naruto slicing the ground that they were on and the trees behind him, they threatened to slice apart Naruto, however every attack passed through Naruto as he stood still his arms crossed and a smirk on his face.
Temari had no idea how Naruto was not affected by her attacks, she was throwing her strongest barrage of attacks trying to finish him off quickly and maybe slightly impress him, and she expended a generous amount of chakra on those attacks and had nothing to show for it. "What the hell, how are you doing that?" Temari wanted an explanation huffing and puffing. And then her analytical mind saw something that she had not noticed before when she was focused on her attack, his eyes looked different.
"You know, deception is a ninja's best tool." Naruto smirked and then rushed her at extreme speeds that Temari barely had a chance to react to. Naruto unsealed his gunbai and thrust it downward, it clashed with Temari's fan and Temari's surprised face was below it. Both of them were struggling to push each other and attain dominance but it didn't happen, mainly because Naruto was holding back his strength and matching it with Temari's to not completely destroy her. They kept pushing until Naruto jumped back and did a similar move that Temari did with her fan, he thrust it horizontally and a blast of wind emanated from it and hit Temari sending her tumbling backwards.
Turning the tumble into a set of backflips she regained her footing and commented, "So you use your gunbai the same way I use my fan huh, and you must be an advanced wind style user too if you have the ability to do what I can with a ninja tool made to compliment wind." Surprised how she had found a shinobi with a similar fighting style to her own
"Sort of but I am far beyond just using or manipulating wind chakra, in fact I can use several natures and secret techniques, but it isn't smart to show off everything that I have in my arsenal so carelessly. Anyway shall we continue." Naruto brought up his gunbai.
"Yes." Temari not wanting to be shown up buy a kid years younger than her, she rushed toward him and flipped upwards and smashed down her giant fan in closed and locked position vertically on Naruto's head but she passed right through him, in retaliation he jumped up to plant his feet on her fan and ran up it to kick her in the face but she ducked and propelled herself up to latch her arms onto his ankles and brought him down smashing him on the floor. When the dust settled all that she saw was a crumbling earth clone, immediately on alert she tried to jump out of the way and dodged a punch that created a crater in the ground. Turning to him Temari saw the testament to his immense strength and again charged him swinging her fan diagonally but he caught it with his hand. In a quick maneuver that would have taken out Naruto if he had not taken earlier precautions, Temari uncharacteristically dropped her fan and pulled out a kunai from her back pouch and slashed it at Naruto's throat, everything happening at jonin speeds.
Temari's kunai slashed through Naruto's clone but unfortunately it was a lightning style clone and as it dissipated shocked her, causing her to scream out in agony and pass out from the pain. Temari dropped to her knees and then was about to fall to the floor but Naruto appearing from the ground caught her in his arms. "Oh crap I think I went a bit overboard." Naruto was holding Temari up, her face in his chest wondering what to do with her, he didn't know where her team was staying and it was pretty late out, maybe he could just let her sleep in his room while he took the couch. After all he was a bit tired from the long day and would rather rest than put the effort into trying to find where they were staying at.
Naruto picked up Temari bridal style and began to walk into the house, he tried to avoid his mom who was reading something in the living room so he could avoid the questions and the beating and spun through the kitchen. Naruto began to walk upstairs to put Temari in his room, he walked down the hallway and pushed the door open with his foot.
Naruto entered his bedroom to reveal a large area with a king sized bed covered by silk sheets, several pillows, next to it was a nightstand littered with books on advanced kenjutsu techniques, advanced sealing arts, theories for how space and time work. In front of the bed was a spacious rug that separated it from the mahogany desk pressed against the wall, on it were sacred texts and scrolls on secret techniques and chakra manipulation, for a while he had been trying to learn how to use the more powerful black lightning that only two people in Kumo had mastered. Naruto was also trying to learn how to combine natures to use releases that only bloodline users could use but he could also access with the powers of his eyes. Under that all was a map of the Elemental Nations that he had taken various notes on about the people or items that were spread out along various locations.
Naruto moved to his bed and set Temari down, tugging off her shinobi sandals that were covering her feet and covered her with his comforter, he placed her giant fan leaning against the wall and looked down on her. She looked beautiful sleeping.
Naruto began to walk out of the room and heard his family walking up the stairs, they reached the top and he greeted them, "Hey guys, going to sleep?"
"Yeah and you should too, we have a big day tomorrow, I need to teach you and Naoko a few things in preparation for the chunnin exams, they'll take place in four days so you need to sign the release forms for me." Minato informed his son.
"Yeah ok sure, goodnight guys." Naruto replied.
"Goodnight Naruto." His parents said back.
"Goodnight bro, oh wait how was your date with the Suna cougar, did she, how do you say it 'tickle your pickle'?" Naoko giggled at her brother who was turning red.
"Shut up Naoko geez!" Naruto shouted out.
"What's she talking about Naruto?" Kushina's interest was peaked.
"Yeah Naruto what Suna cougar?" Minato was also interested.
"I saw him walking with some girl with a giant fan on her back and a Suna headband on." Naoko informed them, "And they were holding hands!"
"WHAT!?" Kushina exploded.
"Mom please we just ate dinner at the lantern!" Naruto explained lifting his hands in surrender.
"Wait, a giant fan? Temari no Sabaku? The Kazekage's daughter!?" Minato shouted, he hadn't expected Naruto to have a girlfriend, especially a foreign one, he had been waiting for a good time to tell Naruto about his arranged marriage to the Mizukage.
"Umm, yeah." Naruto said still embarrassed.
"Well I want to meet this little tramp, I thought the Kazekage's daughter was sixteen and you're twelve!" Kushina was mad now and would make sure that this girl paid when she met her.
Minato had to get his wife off of this subject, it would be an international disaster if the Hokage's wife killed the Kazekage's daughter. "Kushina! They're children, leave them alone now come on let's go to sleep we have a big day tomorrow."
Kushina understood, Minato was going to teach their children how to perform the Rasengan and get them started on learning the Flying Thunder God, so she let it go and began walking to their room muttering a "fine" on her way.
Minato followed giving his son a wink and Naoko walked to her room giving him a wink too. Naruto began to walk downstairs and grabbed a blanket from the closet, he then went to the couch to settle himself for the night.
…
Temari awoke, her face snuggled into a pillow, the comforter wrapped tightly around her embracing her like a cocoon. Her eyes were fluttering open in a blurry haze, she unwrapped herself to reveal her in her outfit, her mind was on autopilot and she smelled something delicious coming from somewhere outside, she droned her way towards that smell and almost fell down a set of stairs that she didn't remember the hotel her and her brothers were staying in had. When she got downstairs Temari walked closer to the smell and said "What are ya cooking Kankuro!? I didn't know you could cook!"
Temari was in the kitchen and came face to face with Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze, in only shorts showing off his muscled body, more mature than a twelve year olds should be, he was sipping orange juice and had a spatula in his hand like if he had been cooking, around him was his family, the Yondaime Hokage, the Red Death, and the one that had embarrassed them earlier, his little sister Naoko. And they were all looking at her.
"Oh… Hi Temari." Naruto said looking in between his family who was just looking at her surprised.
Kushina was the first one to be knocked out of her stupor and realized the situation, then she showed why she was once called the Red-Hot Habanero as an academy student, but became the Red Death when she could actually kill people when she lost her temper. "Hold her down Minato and if Naruto tries to run, stop him, let me go grab my sword." With that she dashed out of the room at Jonin speed going to get her sword, leaving a still shocked Minato and Naoko, but they knew what the sword meant.
"Run Naruto, don't stop!" Minato said as Kushina sped back and almost decapitated Temari except that Minato rushed to her first and defended her with a Hirashin kunai that he always kept around. Naruto grabbed Temari by the hand and rushed out of the house dragging her along.
"Minato what are you doing! She's getting away!" Kushina said angrily, blood thirst in her eyes for the girl that took her baby's innocence, and her stupid son who was a horny little bastard.
….
"I'm sorry about that Temari, my mom is a bit overprotective of us." Naruto apologized that his mom almost decapitated her.
"It's no problem, I think I can understand, anyway what happened last night, why did I wake up in your bed?" Temari was still freaked out but she didn't want to show it, she was a badass Suna kunoichi after all.
"During our spar I shocked you with a lightning style clone, AFTER YOU TRIED TO SLICE MY THROAT!" Naruto screamed out.
"Oh, I'm sorry about that, it's just that I go all out when I fight, it's not like you didn't showing off all of those moves, what was that jutsu that you used to turn intangible. And showing off with your multiple elemental style clones, and what was that dojutsu?" Temari rattled off.
"Umm, remember what I said about a ninja most valuable tool, well I haven't shown you many of my skills. As for the dojutsu, that's something that I very closely guard as a secret." Naruto said mysteriously.
"Well I want my fan back, so give it to me when we meet for the exams." Temari began to walk off and head toward where her team would be, barefoot as her sandals were still in the Namikaze household.
"Wait, will I see you again outside of the exams?" Naruto asked hopefully.
"No." Temari shot over her shoulder and looked forward again, she didn't want to admit that she had fun yesterday on her date with him and enjoyed the look of his body in the morning. However when the invasion would come she didn't want to feel the extreme guilt for her betrayal after they became more attached to each other, for all they knew they would die fighting each other or at least a shinobi from their respective villages.
…
Minato was waiting for his son who was late, he himself could use a breather, he took quite a beating when he was trying to defend his son and the Kazekage's daughter from being chopped into pieces. Kushina was even threatening to withhold sex if he didn't punish Naruto, however he would still probably not have time for sex anyway with the exams coming up, he still needed to make accommodations for all the lords and daimyos coming, beef up security, and then train Naruto and Naoko for as long as he could.
"Hello father, sister." Naruto was walking up towards him, his hands in his pocket.
"At last you show up, getting lucky again huh." Minato winked at his son.
"We just got a bite to eat together father." Naruto said not wanting to get into it.
"At the lantern, our most prestigious restaurant, trying to impress her weren't you." Minato said with a smirk, he remembered doing the same with Kushina.
"No father, besides she doesn't want to be involved like that anyway, we are both participating in the chunnin exams after all. For all we know we could end up fighting each other when everything is on the line." Naruto muttered out.
"Don't worry son, first rejections are always tough to take, I think, your mom was my first and only girlfriend so I wouldn't know… but yeah, on a better note you won't believe what happened in the council meeting with the Mizukage Terumi-" Minato was cut off when his daughter, being her impatient self, barged into the conversation.
"Daddy! Can we begin training already! The chunnin exams are so close, we can't waste time with meaningless talk! We must seize the day!" Naoko fist pumped the air.
"Well alright, first let me tell you guys what we are going to do these few days, we are going to begin training on the Rasengan and the Hirashin!" Minato said excited that he was going to pass on his original techniques to his children.
"Really daddy! That's awesome! We'll become as super powerful as you now!" Naoko ran to hug her dad which he gladly accepted.
"I am honored father." Naruto bowed his head.
"Ok, well first, here these are for you two," Minato tossed two water balloons to his children, " the Rasengan begins with these, first, you know how you walk on trees using chakra and walk on water the same way? Well that is how you begin, first emit chakra to your palm, and irritate the water so that it begins rotating in a clockwise direction. Rotate it enough so that you pop the balloon, which is the first stage, controlling chakra on another part of your body, in this case your palm, like your feet with the walking exercises. If you need more balloons, there are some in that bin over there, but first let me show you how," Minato grabbed a balloon from the bin and agitated the water within with chakra, it began to get all lumpy before it finally exploded.
Naruto and Naoko put determination into their faces and began to go to work, however Naruto made shadow doppelgangers, about fifty of them and grabbed the balloons in the bin and began to cause the water in them to rotate. Naoko looked at him questioningly.
"It's for the training Naoko, the clones experience transfers to him when they dissipate, so he learns from their mistakes and what worked for them so he can get it faster." Minato explained impressed, thinking this was probably the way that Naruto made leaps and bounds in his training.
"You're such a cheat bro!" Naoko shouted at him and was jealous that he could do it.
Naruto continued with the process and in a few hours after he was explained it, the balloon exploded from the rapid rotation. "A tip Naoko, after you try to rotate, you need to agitate it further by making the rotation go in many ways, that way the instability causes more power."
"Well done Naruto, now the next step, you need to do that again but with a stiffer ball and only chakra, no water this time." Minato tossed Naruto a ball and he began doing what his clones learned again, he then began to swirl his chakra and had more difficulty.
…
Four days later, they were still going, that ability coming from their massive chakra reserves. Naruto had made the stiffer ball explode and Naoko had exploded the water one. Now that he had down rotation and power, he was working on maintaining the shape with an air balloon, making his chakra swirl in many directions but trying to keep a spherical shape.
After a while Naruto got the Rasengan down and Minato went on to explain how to use the Hirashin while Naoko was still working on the Rasengan, "Alright Naruto, now it's time to learn the Hirashin, first we need to maximize your chakra control-" Minato was interrupted when Naruto put his hand up.
"My chakra control is impeccable." Naruto put his right index finger and middle finger together and raised it above his left shoulder, he then sliced the space in front of him diagonally and the tree in front of them was cut in half, along with the four behind it.
"You can emit blades of wind with just your fingertips!?" Minato questioned and was surprised that he had that level of control. He knew that Naruto could perform the technique with a sword but doing it from a body part is an entirely different level.
"Indeed, now please continue with instructions for the Hirashin." Naruto motioned for his father to continue.
"Alright well if you have control down all that is left is the explanation, the Hirashin is basically like a summoning jutsu, but instead of teleporting something you teleport yourself and instead of having to perform the hand seals and the blood offering ,you will yourself to whatever holds the seal formula, but getting it down takes quite a lot of effort. Now, to make the formula yours and having it allow you to be able to use it you must imbue it with a small portion of your chakra, that way it is connected to you, and for that reason you cannot use my own." Minato took out a black three pronged kunai from his back pouch, he then went to hand it to Naruto.
"This is yours, I didn't want us to get our kunai confused with each other's, so I will have the yellow, you the black, and Naoko the red. Now you imbue it with your chakra, toss it somewhere, and will yourself to it using the chakra that you have put in it to act as a beacon. Go on, give it a try." Minato took a step back and an evil smirk on his face.
Naruto didn't notice this and threw the kunai at a nearby tree. He felt the chakra there and willed himself to it. "What the hell… Oh Shit!" Naruto shouted out, at first he had found himself in the a space surrounded by nothing, he tried to begin to walk but his feet touched nothing, and that's when he realized he was about one-hundred feet in the sky, his dad and sister tiny dots below. Naruto began to plummet to the earth and was flapping his hands and kicking his legs like a chicken with its head cut off, the earth below getting closer and closer. He began to think of a way to not get splattered all over the ground when he remembered he had power over gravity, with a Shinra Tensei right before he hit the ground he was able to stop the momentum enough to land on his feet without breaking anything.
Naruto looked toward where his father and sister were and gave them an evil look, they were both laughing hysterically, balled up on the floor tears falling from their eyes. "That wasn't funny." Naruto said dead cold but his family didn't notice.
"Of- course it- was!" Minato said between breaths.
"Yeah- bro, that was—hilarious!" Naoko also tried to spit out.
"It's not an S ranked technique for nothing Naruto, mastering it to the point where you are pin point where you appear is a very difficult thing, it can be dangerous like you just experienced. But when you have it mastered, it can work miracles. But that's as far as I can teach you Naruto, you will need to practice with it yourself to get any better, take that kunai to work with the formula and the technique whenever you have free time." Minato encouraged.
"Yes father, and thank you for teaching me these techniques." Naruto bowed his head.
"Naoko come here please," Minato called over his daughter who was still trying to pop the stiffer ball, " Now the Chunnin Exams are tomorrow, and I want you guys to be careful out there alright, you guys being my kids, and Sasuke being on your team, you guys have a big target on your back. Other villages may have orders to try and eliminate you, or target you, killing in the exams is not forbidden but frowned upon so there will be no penalties if you kill somebody, so listen, I want you guys to be more careful than ever before okay?" Minato now had his hands on the shoulders of his children. " I know you guys are strong, but that doesn't mean you can ever be too careful, so watch each other's backs okay."
"Yes father." The children of the Hokage said simultaneously, knowing the seriousness in his voice.
"Good, now let's go home and get some rest, we trained as long as we could, and now it's time to show them all what the Will of Fire can do." Minato said with his glorious smile.
Minato, Naoko, and Naruto began to walk to their house, awaiting what fate held for them tomorrow.
…
Author Note thingy-
Hey guys, just wanted to say thanks for the support, and to keep the harem ideas and summoning contracts coming although I think I have what women and summons I want, I just don't know how to implement them. Also I was wondering if you guys had any ideas of things to put in the story, I might make Sasuke evil, if he finds out that Minato ordered his clan killed, I might bring Itachi back to Konoha, I could make Kisame good again but I don't know how, should I kill Minato and make Naruto go to the dark side? Have Tsunade become Hokage still? Should I kill Hiruzen? I was also toying with the idea of having Naruto kill Danzo and having him take over Root. Tell me what you think pretty please, criticism and compliments and ideas are WANTED SO BADLY.
