As much as I hate Shadow Clones, they fit perfectly here.


"Wow!" Naruto said, looking at the changes to his mindscape. Gone was the sewer and in it's place was a massive library, with pictures of his mother and father everywhere. He saw maps and all sorts of interesting things about. He saw a blue couch and a coffee table, with a few scrolls already placed down. There were literally thousands of books and scrolls on dozens of shelves. "How does she know so much?"

The Fox, in the center of the library now bound not by a cage but a long leash and collar, laughed. "Your mother was an S rank kunoichi, exceedingly powerful. I know Jiraiya told you Tsuande was the strongest Kunoichi, I think your mother had her and him beat. I have been assessing the memories, you need to start with the first set, on the coffee table. It has the starting training methods.

You will start by practicing the parts you read via clones in here, and then in the real world when Jiraiya leaves you be. Since you tapped into my chakra yesterday, I imagine he will be leaving you alone in the morning. Now... read the scrolls. The first Seven One is on Tajutsu, one on chakra control, one on kenjutsu, one one water manipulation, one one sealing via the Uzumaki style, one on physical conditioning and the last on your mother's life like a diary. These will create a foundation for you to become great, to become powerful. The Chakra control will help you master the Rasegan, so no complaints."

Naruto nodded, and moved to the table, creating six clones while the real him grabbed the diary scrolls...

He would spend hours, learning about the Rising Tides Tai and Kenjutsu, how to modulate his chakra in more advanced ways and finally about his mother's life in the Land of Whirlpools...

Eventually, his alarm went off, and he slowly pried himself from his minscape, only see a drunk Jiriaya still uncoscious. Eager, he rushed out, to his training field.

The Fox's voice echoed in his head. " Create five hundred clones, send five to watch Jiraiya so he cannot catch you." Naruto did as he was told, and so the Fox continued. "Send a clone into the village to grab some writing supplies, you need to learn to have beautiful caligraphy for sealing. As for the rest of your clones... I want One hundred working on tajutsu, One hundred on kenjutsu with a kunai, we will grab a real katana later. Five on the leaf sticking exercise, try sticking leaves to different parts of your body. Another fifty try extracting water from the leaves, as you read about for water manipulation training. Fifty working on throwing skills agaisnt another fifty clones to get your situational awareness up. Fifty working on the replacement, that jutsu is beyond useful, trying switching with Leaves. Four will go into town, under disguise and read anything you can find to bolster your academic knowledge as well as your spiritual chakra. The last forty will be split between sparring with you and throwing things at you while you work on the circuit training you read about.

Every half hour, one clone from each group will dispel to spread the understanding and to take the strain from you. Your job is to incorporate the new knowledge into your style and make it so that you can fully master everything. This will basically be your training method for the next two weeks, your foundation. I expect results kid, you are far more than you realize, with your clones, brains and the knowledge of your mother, you could easily become Stronger than Jiraiya by your return to the Leaf. Now channel chakra into the seals on your body, the ones your mom put on you, and ready yourself for your training.

Tonight, we will discuss the man who overtook me and your father...and prepare ourselves for his return."

Naruto nodded and started his training from hell, determined to honor his mother and the hard work she put into ensuring his survival.

Love, your Ninja Overlord,
