Chapter 8: Bloodline Training Part 2

(Italics: Thoughts/Flashbacks/Dream sequence. Bold: Title and Kyubi's/Inner Naruto's Speech.)

Naruto sat atop the head of the Fourth Hokage deep in meditation, for the past few days Naruto had used the Kyubi's chakra to adjust his body to the "Chakra Weights" his blood lust "Ego Clone" had used on him, his body was getting stronger and stronger but as he found out later physical strength is not all there is to being a Shinobi. From Blood lust Naruto's training Naruto unlocked another part of his ego: Light Naruto.

Flashback: "But you told me if I became strong enough you'd teach me how to use my Clan's Doujutsu!" Naruto shot at his ego clone. Blood lust Naruto who seemed amused by his combine Ego's reaction grinned sinisterly as he replied: "You are correct I did say if you became strong enough I'd teach you how to use your Doujutsu however you have not held your end of the bargain as of yet." Naruto spat on the ground as he shot back: "Bullshit! My body's strong enough to endure anything you are anyone else can throw my way!

Blood lust Naruto merely snickered as he replied: "Your observation skills need some work, you are right you have indeed trained your body past the limits of regular Shinobi standards however as I've said earlier your mind is still weak… But as a reward for making it this far I will break the seal of your next "Ego Clone" and he shall teach you the ways of sharpening your mind among other things…"

And with those words Blood lust Naruto returned to his deep slumber as the seal over the cage marked: "Light" began to crack and leak out steady amounts of chakra that could only be explained as a seemingly celestial white light. A form of Naruto rose from the ground and walked through the metal bars on the cage as if it were nothing but air. Light Naruto approached his combine ego with a smile as he said: "Shall we begin?" Flashback End.

Light Naruto had taught Naruto many things, he had learned how to meditate and even complex things like Genjutsus which Naruto had yet to get the hang of. Naruto at the moment was meditating under a waterfall before his morning laps around Konoha. His physical training was equivalent to what Blood lust Naruto was making him do but he spent most of his time working on chakra control and mind training exercises. Naruto did everything from Kunai training to playing Chess, he had begun to apply some newly obtained strategy into his techniques and with his new level of power and endurance he could perform his signature techniques without even so much as breaking a sweat. And with Naruto's Shadow Clone Jutsu technique he could complete about a week to a month's worth of training in a few short hours allowing him to make extraordinary progress in a very short amount of time whether the training was sharpening his mind or body.

Ino was worried about Naruto, he had been gone for a few weeks since the mission and no one knew where he was, Tsunade had told Ino many times he was probably just training somewhere and even with how believable that story was, she couldn't help but feel as if something in Naruto was changing, it was almost as if she could sense it. She had just got back from another mission with her team, they had to escort a weapon smith's daughter from bandits all the way to the village hidden in rocks in the Earth Country. Although strangely the mission ran smoothly, there were bandits like the mission suggested but nothing like the influence of other Ninja manipulating the bandits, they were just driven by their own greed. Ino was finally glad the mission was over and she was back home but a feeling in her gut intuition kept her wondering how Naruto was doing the entire trip back, something about him was imbalanced or out of place, she could just feel it.
A few days later Naruto lied down in his bed exhausted, he was so excited and proud of himself he could have jumped up in joy if he had the energy. Naruto had just achieved the first level of his Doujutsu: The Uzaraghan.

Unlike the Byakughan and Sharingan his Doujutsu did not allow him to copy the enemy techniques or see things normally invisible to a regular Shinobi's eyes. It did however give him the advantage in battle when it came to counterattacks, he could deflect and reverse the effects of Genjutsus placed on him.

With the help of his bloodline ability he could fuse his signature technique the Shadow Clone Jutsu with his Ego clones to create two very powerful clones that held all of Naruto's true power with some of their own unique abilities as well, and the best part was if he went even further in his training he could unlock even stronger "Egos," the even greater part about the technique was these clones could act with their own free will and did not require Naruto to coordinate them in battle. Therefore with his almost limitless supply of chakra he could very well become Hokage in no time!

The sun rose up over the village of Konoha and a beautiful, young blond haired Kunoichi slowly rose from her bed and stretched as she walked into the bathroom, quickly undressed, turned on the hot water and stepped into the shower, she looked in the mirror after her shower, she had not slept the whole night and it really showed. She kept having these nightmares about Naruto… He turned into some kind of monster and the villagers began to chase him away with every hard, sharp, or blunt object they could get their hands on. Ino cried and told them to stop but they didn't listen, they beat the poor boy until he was just a bloody disfigured mess on the ground, she dropped to the ground and cried, she was so sad and was glad that when she woke up none of it was real, but the bad feeling she had about Naruto never went away, not even for a moment.
A Shinobi stood on a cliff looking down on the leaf village, the Shinobi's appearance could only be described as a phantom, a mere shadow of this world, behind his masked face were two blood red eyes, he had a black bandage that covered his entire body with a strange seal embedded into it on it's chest. He wore black ninja pants and a black Kimono robe to cover the bandages on his body, after a moment of silence another figure hidden in a shadow bowed down and asked: "What are your orders my lord?" The Lord snickered and replied: "We shall do nothing yet dear minion… I will wait for the Uzumaki brat to train and allow him to feel as if he's invincible, then when the time is right we will show him just how weak he truly is, his father may have put this curse on me... But I will have my revenge on the Uzumaki Clan!" And with those words the two men hidden in darkness vanished in a cloud of black smoke.
Itachi and Kisame stood over the hidden leaf village staring down on the village, Kisame turned to Itachi and said: "Well the brat is certainly getting stronger, are you sure you can take him Itachi? He got you pretty good last time." Itachi narrowed his eyes sinisterly and snickered at the remark as he said: "Next Time… I will make you pay Uzumaki Naruto… I will make you pay very dearly… Come Kisame we are leaving… For now anyway…" And with those words Itachi and Kisame vanished from sight instantaneously.
Naruto walked through the village casually but something seemed out of place, the villagers and his fellow ninja were eying him curiously and staring at him. He sighed because he knew why they were staring too. Naruto's Doujutsu worked a little different than Sasuke's or Neji's Did. He couldn't turn it on and off at will, it was always on. As he walked the Azure orbs that once were on his face were replaced by a fiery purple pupil with three neon green circles rotating around his eye slowly and steadily. He didn't mind the stares though, growing up being hated as the Kyubi's Vessel he had gotten used to it. He walked into the Hokage's Building and began to walk up a spiral staircase to Tsunade's Office.
Tsunade sighed and took a drink of Sake as she sat deep in thought, she was worried about Naruto, he had been gone almost a month and the council even requested that he be declared a missing ninja, the absurdity! How dare those arrogant hateful bastards! She was so mad but at the same time a part of being Hokage is sucking up sometimes when it came to the safety and well-being of the village. After a few minutes of silence a knock sounded on Tsunade's Office door. Tsunade quickly sealed her Sake Stash in her scroll and hid it under her clothes as she called out: "Come in." The door opened and Naruto emerged from the doorway. Tsunade stared in awe at Naruto's eyes and Naruto smiled nervously and said: "Hehe hey Tsunade what's up?"
