Naruto took a deep breath before speaking "There are a lot of things you 2 don't know about me, I'd rather not tell you them and I'm not gonna, however 2 of them you need to know." He took a deep breath while Sasuke and Sakura waited; both realizing now wasn't the time for their petty squabbles. "When I was 6 I read an old book called Dracula and a beginners Fuinjutsu book. I'm sure you both know what Dracula is about; well the idea of drinking blood to get stronger interested me… When I read the fuinjutsu book it mentioned blood seal's, I wondered why they work." His 2 team mates stared, they had never truly thought about why such things worked. "I went through some more advanced books, and a dictionary, and found my answer blood is so near the chakra network, even civilian blood had chakra in it, blood seals look at the chakra in the blood to see who the work for and who they don't. So I started looking up blood, chakra how to diverge the 2 and so on." Sakura still didn't understand where this was going while Sasuke was starting to understand. "I looked it up and finally came up with something … something that changed my very DNA." Sakura asked "What did?" in a slightly fearful voice, not sure she wanted to know with all the talk of blood being thrown around. "I won't go into detail about the process, but the effect, well there were 2." Naruto looked progressively more nervous as he spoke. Sasuke decided then "Naruto, we aren't exactly the best friends but from now on we MUST trust each other, so let's get these explanations and possible solutions done, and I swear, I won't judge you." Naruto seemed to think for a second before coming to a decision, "The first effect is what you'd expect from something inspired from Dracula and blood." He tilted his head and smiled, there was nothing odd, until his 4 canine teeth extended. Each one was about 2 inches long, looked like a hypodermic with a thicker base. "These are the results, they naturally draw blood, break down the actual blood and filter the chakra to me for a decent boost, the more I 'drink' the stronger I get." Sakura stared at him slightly scared, Sasuke stayed impassive, he gave his word and he refused to go back on it. "The second effect comes in 2 parts; I MUST drink at least once a week from a civilian, once a day from large animals or a Shinobi can sustain me for a long time. It all depends on the amount of chakra in their blood. The second part is it gives me a strong bloodlust, the more I drink and the longer I go without a drink, and yes they compound, the higher the lust." Sakura looked disgusted while Sasuke contemplated what was said, "How long have you gone and are you suggesting drinking from us" Naruto responded, "Jiji [old man/gramps] gave me a blood bag so I'm good for another few weeks and there are plenty of animals around to help sate me, and yes I'm thinking your blood." Sasuke immediately replied, "would that give you enough of a boost?"

"Maybe"

"Is the second option better?"

"Yes, but it's more … personal" Sakura cut in here "Do you 2 hear your selves? Sasuke-kun [-kun affectionate term for a guy] he wants to drink our blood!" Sasuke replied "We are Shinobi [ninja] what did you expect? This is not all kittens and rainbows, we could die, be tortured, raped, beaten, yelled at, and this is what you signed up for, shape up or ship out, there is no in between." Sakura appeared stricken, but before she could come up with anything to say to that Sasuke once again asked Naruto "What was the second option?" Naruto took a calming breath, wondering how they were going to take this. "I saw a jutsu in the forbidden scroll, what it basically did was take 3 to 6 people and … fused their DNA making them … siblings for lack of a better term."

"So how would this help?" asked Sasuke. Sakura was still speechless. Naruto replied "It's also a combination of skills; You 2 would gain my stamina, a chakra boost, and my bloodline. Me and Sakura would get your flexibility, quick time recognition, and your sharingan [mirror wheel eyes] and yes all 3 of us would activate it. Me and Sasuke would get a chakra control boost, more mental capacities, and probably greater strength and speed." Sakura, desperate for something she recognized asked miserably "extra strength and speed?" while Sasuke had a questioning look. Naruto replied "Yeah, you've never noticed even though you do like no work your able to almost keep up with Sasuke and throw me around like a doll? It's not natural, so we should gain it in the merger"

Sasuke asked "What is this jutsu called?" "Ketsueki ni sanka [Joining blood] … So, what do we do" asked Naruto to an almost solid 2 minutes of silence.
