Hey guys, I'm back with another chapter. Just so that you know, I won't be abandoning this story anytime soon. And a poll's up in my profile on who should get their memories back? Please vote. Thank you for the reviews though
Answers to reviews:
TheRealDeal44: Thank you
Super Saiyan God Gogeta: It isn't bashing actually. People won't be all nice and sweet with him from the start. But, he changes their views about him drastically as time goes by
Narutofangirl45: Thank you
BigMasetheDon: I have put up a poll for that
Cake: Thank you for the suggestions. I will surely do those
Clarification:
Sasuke will not jolly go boy from the start. He has to get some sense knocked into him by Naruto. And Naruto will hide his potential till Kakashi's bell test.
And Naruto won't be able to use toad summons until he signs the contract. I got a lot of messages on that topic, so changed it.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. It is owned by Masashi (hope the spelling is correct and I don't know his last name)
I will be using bold to highlight names for the first time.
"Blah" – Normal speech
'Blah' – Thoughts
"Blah"- Kurama and other tailed beasts talking
'Blah' – Kurama and other tailed beasts' thoughts
Shadow Clone Jutsu- Jutsus
Okay guys, without further delay, here is the story
FLASHBACK:-
"Okay here is the list of things you can do and you can't do at the moment. You obviously have access to my chakra shroud without harming your body or mind at the moment. You also have access to one tailed chakra cloak, but you will get hurt and slowly start losing yourself to the bloodlust. Above that, you have access to no cloaks. You have massive chakra reserves alone, probably 10 times that of the old man. You have kept the chakra reserves from the future. You have all your jutsus from the future but you can't use most of them due to your shoddy chakra control. That is all. So for the next two years, you will start working on mastering your chakra level to at least high chunnin level. Then learn to get over the bloodlust in one tail cloak and increase the number of tails to three at the very least. Then work on learning some jutsus from each element. Since you have all five elemental affinity now, you will use far less chakra for the jutsus. Learn the basics of fuinjutsu and improve your handwriting to that level where you can use seals without fear of them blowing. That is all of it", explained Kurama.
"That is a lot. Well then, let us get to work", said Naruto and got started
"Okay kit, let us see how many shadow clones you can make now", said Kurama.
Naruto made the all-too familiar sign and cried out loud, Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu and a huge puff of smoke surrounded him. When the smoke cleared, he saw that all around him, about 3000 Shadow Clones were standing. "Wow kit, even with your good for nothing chakra control, you can still make 3000 Shadow Clones. Impressive", said Kurama to which Naruto replied, "Should I be embarrassed or flattered". "Take it whichever way you want kit. Now get to work", scolded Kurama.
"Okay, I have got 10 scrolls. 5 on elemental techniques, 1 on basic fuinjutsu, 2 on chakra control and 2 on taijutsu. So, if I divide 300 Shadow Clones for each of those scrolls, apart from the taijutsu, I will probably get all the scrolls down in a week at most. Okay guys, divide to groups of 300 and start practicing each scroll", shouted the blonde to his Shadow Clones.
As soon as the order was shouted out, all the shadow clones' group took their respective scrolls and went off to train. The original started doing physical workout. He knew that shadow clones sent back their memories to the original but they did not send back the physical training even though fatigue was sent back. So he had to work out himself. He started with 50 push ups, 50 squats, 50 sit ups, stretching exercise and 50 laps around the training ground running and another 50 jogging.
By the time the original Naruto finished his physical workout, he was sweating bullets and it was late evening. In the meantime, his shadow clone army had made some progress at most. He managed to understand the theory behind the jutsus but still did not want to attempt them due to his crappy chakra control. The clones had made some progress in memorising the stances of two styles of taijutsu. They also had managed to walk on tree and on water, though not very much. The fuinjutsu scroll was the hardest but he did manage to understand some of it. So, all in all, he knew that if he kept this training regime up, he would master all these scrolls in about 6 months. Then he could move on to next set of scrolls.
He was about to dispel his clones when something came across his thoughts. 'Yo Kurama, how many clones should I dispel at a time without passing out or worse, going into a coma' asked Naruto as a chill went down his spine thinking about what would happen if he would go into a coma. "Okay kit, dispel 300 clones at a time. Wait for 5 minutes before dispelling the next 300. With me sorting out your memories here, you can do it every 5 minutes. That should enable you to dispel all your clones in 50 minutes without making you pass out. I will tone down the fatigue for you", said Kurama.
Naruto did as he was told to and received all the memories and experience from the shadow clones. "Hey kit, you need to start training on using my chakra soon. You will need my full power to change the future. So I suggest you to get your chakra control to mid jonin level at least as soon as possible and then start working on using my chakra." 'As you say Kurama', replied Naruto, 'Now all I need is a good shower, some sleep and above all RAMEN' thought Naruto as he ran towards Ichiraku's Ramen.
6 months later:-
In the last 6 months, Naruto had managed to do a lot of workout. He had managed to master tree walking and water walking exercises. He now had eleven times the chakra reserves of the third hokage. But, because of that, even though he had managed to master the two chakra exercises, his chakra control was at the level of high genin to low chunnin. On his taijutsu front, he had mastered the katas of the academy style taijutsu, since it was the most basic one and had managed to master another one known as Rotation Fist, which was based on quick rotatory strike, giving the enemy less time to strike back. Naruto knew that neither style suited him, so he had thought that he would master many different styles and combine them to make his own style.
On the fuinjutsu front, he had managed to get down the basics and had finally perfected his handwriting. He could start working on intermediate fuinjutsu and start writing seals. Though, at intermediate level, all he could do were make some exploding seals, storage seals and flash bang seals. But, it was a start after all, thought Naruto.
But at the jutsus front, he had got the most points. He had managed to relearn the Replacement Jutsu and the Transformation Jutsu. In elemental jutsu, he had learnt 2 earth jutsus. The first was, Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Jutsu, a D-rank jutsu and Earth Release: Hiding like a Mole Jutsu, a C-rank jutsu. He had learnt 2 fire jutsus. The first one was Fire Release: Fireball Jutsu, a D-rank jutsu and Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Jutsu, a C-rank jutsu.
He had learnt 2 lightening jutsus. One was Lightening Release: Electromagnetic Murder, a C-rank jutsu and Lightening Release: Lightening Beast Tracking Fang, a C-rank jutsu. He had learnt 3 water jutsus. The first was, Water Release: Wild Water Wave, the second was Water Release: Gunshot and the third was Water Release: Water Prison Jutsu. All three were C-rank jutsus. Finally, he had learnt 2 wind jutsus. The first was Wind Release: Gale Palm, and the second was Wind Release: Great Breakthrough. Both were C-rank jutsus.
He knew that he needed more than C-rank and D-rank jutsus to rewrite the future, but without elemental manipulation training, he could not go on further. So he needed help. He knew only wind manipulation training but without a suitable place to train, he could not get anything done. And to start working on using Kurama's chakra, he needed better chakra control. So, he knew he had to approach the hokage, but didn't know how.
I know guys, it is a small chapter but all I wanted to do with this chapter was to show how much he would develop initially. But, don't worry, the next chapters will be longer, a lot longer.
And a poll is up in my profile. Please vote.
