The day had passed quickly and amazingly.
Naruto had collected his friends, and Hinata had gotten to know and made friends with everybody, even Sasuke had been not so abrasive as he usually would have been.
They all played Hide and seek, Had a few snowball fights, and ended the long day by making a few snowmen in the park.
The Ino-Shika-Cho trio all went home after that as it was getting late, And Sasuke said he was going to be late for his training if he stayed any longer.
Leaving Hinata with Naruto.
"Want me to walk you home?" Naruto asked the shy Ravenette.
Hinata was surprised, but nodded shyly and Naruto less her back to her Clan Compound.
As they arrived, Naruto was met with Hiashi, who shared a grateful look with the red headed boy, and a nod.
Hiashi then took Hinata with him, holding her hand as they walked, which seems to make Hinata happier than ever.
Naruto smiled and walked back, a lot on his mind.
Twice today he had used an unknown technique, Once to stun a bully, and the other in the fight with Hiashi.
That feeling of crackling heat and pressure in his chest, it wasn't how Kakashi described how Lightning release felt when using those techniques.
'Maybe Fenrir will know what it was...' Naruto thought as he walked his way to the Uzumaki compound.
Once inside, Fenrir was already waiting for him, a expected look on his face.
"You certainly know how to keep a wolf in his paws, you know that?" Fenrir said a she hugged Naruto tightly.
"I'm not sure what you mean?" Naruto said with an honest chuckle.
Fenrir released Naruto and gave him a few sniffs.
His grin grew wider.
"You smell of a lightning Storm and Battle, boy, and don't think I wasn't keeping an eye on you today with my senses. I saw what happened... Most importantly, I felt it"
Naruto chuckeld, "then can you tell me what that was? That feeling of crackling pressure that helped me fight those Bullies was helpful... It might make a great technique if I can learn to use it" Naruto said.
Fenrir smiled, and side-hugged the boy as they walked through the grounds.
"I had only seen it once. It was the pinnacle of Kekkei Genkai, more so that any other in the Elemental Nations. The wood release of the first Hokage was no Match for it, No Dojutsu could match the raw power and strength that it offered. And it was supposed to be a mutation, something that would never happen again in a million years... But your just full of surprises"
"So it was a bloodline?" Naruto asked.
Not just any Bloodline, it was Storm Release. A combination of someone who has the Wind, Water, and Ligtning natures in perfect balance, plus the Vitality to store such energy. Your grandfather never truly utilized it to it's full potential, but he still beat people hundreds of times stronger than himself with it, The First Hokqge was one of them, and so were a few very powerful Kage from other villages" Fenrir explained.
"What can it do?" Naruto asked, excited at the possibilities.
"It will take time to master, as what I saw today was pretty much what your grandfather told me what it was like. It started weak, but as he trained, and as he grew, he began to build power that was unrivalled, and he was only taken down after three Kage used a series of combination jutsu and their own strength, to take him down, luckily his body was destroyed, so nobody could ever get it's secrets. But I believe he did make a small scroll documenting his techniques and the ways he trained. Although if it made it here is anybody's guess" Fenrir explained.
Naruto nodded, deciding to ask Tengan to help him look through the Vault, as he spent the most time in there.
After a hug and ruffle of His red hair, Naruto went to find Tengan, Leaving Fenrir to go back to his work.
Tengan was exactly where he was this morning.
The dining room, but it looked a lot different
The walls were covered in paper stuck to the walls, each piece having a different seal on it, and the table and been moved and a very large sheet of paper was now in its place.
Tengan, was on his hands and knees, Scribbling on the paper with both pencil and Ink.
He was muttering to himself at speeds words shouldn't have been able to been able to be formed.
Naruto decided to wait till the Seal amster was finished with whatever it was he was doing.
Which took quite a while.
"Thanks for waiting, I was just trying out a personal project" Tengan said as he wiped the sweat form his brow.
"No problem, how did it go?" Naruto asked.
"Progress was made, but it will still be some years till I get the seal right... What is it you needed?" Tengan asked.
"I need a scroll from the vault, I was hoping you could save me the time as tell me if it was down there" Naruto asked
"Which scroll?" Tengan as he lead Naruto down to the Vault.
"The Uzukage's Storm Release Scroll"
Tengan paused, and looked at Naruto with surprise.
He leaned in and gave him a sniff, his eyes widening in shock.
"You... you have Storm Release?" Tengan asked.
Naruto nodded, "Just found it today in a fight with some people"
Tengan rushed into the vault and began rumaging through the Scroll shelves, until he shouted for Naruto to come over.
As Naruto went to where Tengan was, he saw it.
A scroll as long and thick as Tengans arm.
There was no discernible feature other than a storm cloud that had been printed on the Scrolls Seal.
.
.
.
Naruto was panting with exhaustion he had only ever used his chakra for either enhancements or sensing this was his first ever jutsu.
The feeling of chakra leaving his body in such amounts was definitely new to him.
'Gonna have to start with Control exercises again'
Fenrir was a stickler for deals, and he made sure there was no loop hoels when offering him the chance to lead Storm release.
The condition to learning any jutsu from the Storm Scroll, because having such power would be in the hands of a child would be widely inappropriate, was to learn a single weak jutus of the three main elements that made up Storm Release,
The technique they started with was a simple technique barely worth its E ranking, it was a wind release technique that infuses kunai with wind style chakra to enhance them and allow you to control them to a certain extent, it was chakra intensive and required more control than Naruto had.
The only reason he even able to convince Fenrir to make such a deal, was that he needed to start early to be able to use storm release to its full extent unlike hsi grandfather.
Naruto took in another deep breath held the kunai in my hand and with three hand signs "Wind style: soaring kunai!" and with a mental thought directed it into the bullseye.
The Kunai whispteld through the air, gliding through it like a fire ball through ice.
And with a solid *Thunk, the Kunai landed just a few centimetres from bullseye.
"Yatta!" Naruto exclaimed, having reached a new personal best for his aim.
But being able to use it properly wasnt mastering it, but he wasnt far off from doing that.
These techniques were easy to master, and the speed at which he was progressing was a testament to that.
'Just give me another week or two and I will be able to do it at least a half seal' He thought and with that he threw himself back into training, grabbing a new Kunai from the small pile of them next to him, and he continued to Throw Kunai at the Targets.
