Chapter #4:

The Test

Naruto makes it to the Training field way ahead of Sakura where everyone including Tsunade is waiting they all look confused as to why Naruto brought his child Naruto thinks for a moment before he gets an idea he puts Hanami down outside the rings and slams his hands down and shouts "Earth Style, Platform!" Hanami is then left up in the air high enough to see but low enough that she won't hurt herself if she falls.

Naruto nods to himself "That should do it!"

Ino walks over to him with a fury in her eyes everyone braces for impact Ino shouts "What is she doing here!? Where is Sakura?"

Naruto looks where he came from "Huh! Yeah that's a good question she should be along soon," Naruto gets into a new form they'd never seen before Naruto's daddy From and gets super excited "as to why Hanami my pride and joy is her, well I went over to Sakura's this morning to make breakfast for them both but Shizune found me and told me what had been decided but I promised Hanami I'd play with her so we compromised Hanami is gonna watch me kick all your asses! Ya know!" he looks excited

Ino furious "Oh, yeah we'll just see about that, when Sakura gets here!"

Sakura comes running up "Naruto! Sorry I took so long I just talked to Shizune about you moving in, and she said it'll all be done by the end of our test."

Naruto smiles and gives her a thumbs up "Sweet!"

Everyone is shocked, surprised, and horrified especially Ino, and Hinata who both scream at the same time in unison "WHAT!?"

Naruto laughs at everyone's reaction "Relax guys she's gonna prepare another room for me, me and Sakura talked over some Ramen last night and decided it'd be best for all of us if I was a part of Hanami's daily life and it'll be a lot easier if I live in the same house"

Everyone sighs in relief, even Ino is a little happier at that revelation but Hinata hides her annoyance very well she knows that Sakura is playing the game very well giving him little inches so Naruto will stay with her if she wants any chance of winning his heart she'll need to do something fast.

Tsunade claps her hands three times "Okay, okay now that these two are here we can begin. The rules are quite simple you lose if you become incanpaciated, you give up or are thrown out of the ring anything else goes, oh and this is more to Shikamaru than anyone else but once your out you are not allowed to give anyone advice Naruto or the other teams.

Shikamaru nods "Understood lady Hokage."

Tsunade nods "Good, now get out there and give it your all"

All get in the middle of the ring and there's a stiffness about the air they're all in a fighting stance Naruto eyes them all well especially Shikamaru he whispers to Sakura "If we wanna win the first one we need to get rid of is Shikamaru wheather it's knockout or ringout doesn't matter but from what I can tell he's stronger these days more responsible and determined and won't give up easily, that correct."

Sakura nods "Right, I'll create a distraction you go after him"

Tsunade shouts "Begin!"

Naruto crosses his figners and makes his signature hand sign and shouts "Shadow Clone Jutsu and nine Shadow Clones appear and they all run towards one of their opponents and start punching kicking and blocking the counters "I've created a shadow clone for each of them, now let's take out the first one!"

Everyone looks to each other trying to figure out who Sakura and Naruto are going after first"

Sakura shouts "Naruto throw me at them I can make quite the impact!"

Naruto looks surprised "You sure?"

Sakura nods "Of course I wasn't simply sitting on my butt while you were gone Tsunade trained me as well!"

Naruto smiles "Right well in that case…" he grabs Sakura's arm spins her around a few times and throws her towards Shikamaru

Sakura lands right behind Naruto's clone fighting Shikamaru "Sorry about this Naruto but… Cha!" she slams into the ground send shockwaves outwards and creating a gigantic crater where she punched this also throws Shikamaru out of the ring he falls into the water.

Shikamaru makes his way back to the surface and spits some water out then nods to both Sakura and Naruto "Nice strategy guess you trained both your mind and body with Jiraiya Naruto?"

Ino annoyed shouts "Don't compliment him! Choji let's go!"

Choji nods "Roger, Human Boulder!" he smashes into all of Naruto's shadow clones forcing Sakura and Naruto to switch tactics

Sakura jumps back to Naruto "Well, Naruto any more bright ideas?"

Naruto nods "Yeah, next we should get rid of both Hinata and Shino they're the biggest threat."

Sakura surprised "Shino too?"

Naruto nods "Yeah I did some reading up on all the Clans and Hinata's Byakugan will be a problem so will Neji's but one problem at a time and Shino's incests will be able to absorb all our Chakra if they get the chance so…"

Hinata jumps in front of Sakura using her Gentle Fist "Gentle Fist! Air Palm!" she slams the air creating a massive strike of wind

Sakura does several backflips to get out of the way "Whoa! I guess we are in battle it was foolish of us to think they'd just let us strategize!"

Naruto nods "Yeah, you take Hinata Shino's mine!"

Kiba jumps in front though "Oh, no you don't this is the first chance I've had to get my revenge for that stunt you pulled during the Chunin Exams"

Naruto thinks for a moment then asks "Sorry, do you mean when I beat you or accidentally farted in your face?"

Kiba glares "All of it! Shino you stay out of this, the rest of you guys too! He's mine!"

Neji sighs "Oh, alright I guess I can wait."

Ino sighs "Aw… man and I was looking forward to showing him the wrath of aunt Ino!"

Suddenly there's a tiny little shout "You can do it Daddy! Punch him right in the nose!"

Naruto starts laughing "MY daughter is cheering for me I can't look like a fool in front of her specially not now!"

Kiba senses a massive build up of Chakra and knows it's not good. "Oh, no."

Naruto starts running circles around Kiba "Come on Kiba do that big wolf transformation with Akamaru you used against that sound Ninja guy when we went after Sasuke!"

Kiba glares "You making fun of me!? Fine… Arc Beast Mimacry Man Beast Clone! Transform! Wolf Beast Trnasformation, Fang Over Fang!" several things happen at once first of Akamaru transforms into another Kiba then they both transform, turning from two Kiba's into one gigantic two headed white wolf then it leaps into the air and becomes a gigantic twister

Naruto smiles at his daughter as she looks a bit nervous "Don't worry daddy's got this!" he concentrates a massive amount of Chakra and both sleeves tear off and with his bear hands forces Kiba and Akamaru to stop both transformations go up and Akamaru is back in his dog form and Kiba in his regular form

Kiba and Akamaru look horrified all these years training and Naruto just stopped it with his bare hands "No, way how did you!?"

Naruto smiles "Tell ya later! He grabs both Kiba and Akamaru and throws them into the water with Shikamaru they both land with a splash.

Shikamaru looks at them "Hey, so you got beat too huh?"

Kiba nods "Aw, well there's always next time."

Meanwhile Sakura is still dodging Hianta's attack Sakura starts taking it personally "You know those attacks are more aggressive than I would have thought and I'm starting to take it personally!"

Hinata screams "Agh!" as she strikes another air palm at Sakura "You, Sakura are a horrible person! You knew how I felt about Naruto and yet you still used his feelings against him and had sex had a kid to use him even more, you took my happiness away from me!?"

Sakura surprised at this outburst "I what… Hinata I'm sorry but I loved Naruto I still do in some ways I was just blinded by my infatuation with Sasuke if it hadn't been for him I would've confessed a long time ago."

Hinata glares "Is that supposed to make me feel better! When I was a little girl I was bullied and picked on for the eyes that I had but Naruto he didn't care he even saved me from bullies and ended up getting hurt for me ever since then I have loved him and watched him grow, and you stole him from me!"

Kakashi having watched the match until this point walks up to Tsunade and whispers "Uh… Lady Hokage don't yo think this is getting just a little…"

Tsunade nods "I agree, however I'd like to keep the match going just for a little bit let's see how Sakura will deal with this, after all it's not just Naruto's test, it's also Sakura's to see if everything I've taught her was worth while."

Kakashi nods "I see, very well but if it gets too intense I won't hesitate to intervene."

Tsunade nods "That's why I have you here."

Sakura glares at Hinata "I stole him from you! You loved him!? Don't make me laugh Hinata, you're same as me! The me that I was before Sasuke left! Except you're worse, you are so infatuated with Naruto that you can't see what your feelings truly are it's not love, it's obsession and even after Naruto left you forced yourself to hold onto those so-called feelings of love when really you refused to look anywhere else for true love! Grow up Hinata, you never loved Naruto you stalked him, to be honest when I first heard what you did on a regular basis the first thing that I thought was creepy the second was stalker and the third I should probably tell Naruto about this psycho"

Hinata about to absolutely loose her shit "Why you!..."

Sakura smiles "Me though, I love Naruto he has saved me multiple times and I've learned more than I ever thought I would want to his favorite color is blue, his hobbies include training, eating ramen, and dreaming about becoming a Hokage and he will become Hokage and he is the father of my child and nothing will ever change that! If we do end up officially getting together that's our choice and it will have nothing to do with you so you can screw right off with your accusations, outbursts, and assumptions! CHA'!" infusing chakra into her fist she charges at Hinata and forces her to go flying backwards and she hits a tree and it knocks her out.

Naruto rejoins Sakura "Hey, Sakura what was that about seemed pretty intense?"

Sakura smiles "Oh, it was nothing! Now let's get back to taking care of Shino."

Naruto nods "Right, you got any ideas on how to beat a guy we can't get near?"

Sakura shakes her head "Nope, unfortunately not."

Shino steps forward and a swarm of insects start coming off him and heading straight for Naruto and Sakura "I've got this… you guys stay back"

Ino tries to interject "but we could help!"

Shino shakes his head "No my bugs are none discriminatory if you try to help I might end up absorbing all of your chakra as well."

Ino nods "Okay well if we can help let us know!"

Shino nods "Will do, let's go Naruto."

Naruto laughs "What he's saying is so opposite to his usual demeanor don't you think?"

Sakura nods "If you're talking about the old Shino that is, but after being left out of the Sasuke Retrieval Mission he decided to get stronger so he would be considered if anything like that ever came up ever again."

Shino stalking towards the two menacingly "That's right, and I have trained myself, and pushed myself so far that I'm almost equal to that of my father, the greatest insect user of our age!"

Naruto nods "Okay, Sakura how big of a hole do you think you could make?"

Sakura smiles "Pretty bug, why…?"

Naruto smiles back "Think you could create a pool of water?"

Sakura getting the idea Naruto has laughs "Only an idiot like you would think of something so insane!" she laughs again "Alright, I'll need a running start though so I'll need your Shadow Clone Whip…"

Naruto chuckles "I only used it once cause it made me so dizzy I nearly threw up back okay I think I can handle it just tell me when to let go."

Sakura nods "you got it"

Shino asks "You finally ready to accept defeat Naruto and Sakura you're my friends so I won't kill you but my insects can get overzealous when it comes to fighs especially strong opponents like you."

Naruto chuckles "Now, Shino I don't doubt that you're very strong and against anybody else you'd probably win but your up against the Number #1 Hyperactive Knuckled Headed Ninja! A Title that I still hold to this day!"

Tenten sighs "Is that really something to be bragging about?"

Neji sighs "It's Naruto what else do you expect?"

Tenten nods "True, what do you think Lee?"

Lee is crying a waterfall of tears "This is the true power of youth to never give up and always keep pushing! It is… overwhelming!"

Neji sighs "Please focus Lee, it's possible that we'll be the last team to fight if Shino loses I doubt Ino will sit by and let us the strongest team here fight, cause if we can't win no one can."

Ino glares "I resent that statement, but you are right we're next if Shino looses and everyone else got a sort of one on one so don't you dare step in, besides anything else it's personal!"

Neji puts his hands up in surrender "I understand as you wish but they have to beat Shino first and I don't think…"

Naruto shouts "You ready Sakura, it'll be cramped for a bit."

Everyone confused mouths the word 'cramped' silently very confused all except Shikamaru who has taken the time to take a fair few steps back just in case everyone outside the ring does the same.

Naruto creates hundereds of Shadow clones and they all pile on Sakura the original then grabs all of his Shadow Clones by the ankles and with full force pulls Sakura out and she ends up miles in the air Sakura then shouts "Now! But leave one up here to use as a board!"

Naruto nods "Got it!" he releases all but one Shadow Clone

Sakura looks at the Shadow Clone "Sorry but this is gonna hurt!"

Shadow Clone looks a little scared but nods "Do it!"

Sakura jumps off the Shadow Clone so hard it poofs out of existence and Sakura hurtles towards the ground and shouts with all her might "CHA!" she smashes the ground beneath Shino's feet creating a large amount of water it covers Shino and everyone but also drowns a few insects.

Shino terrified "No! Michel, Fred, Terry Samantha…" he shouts so many names everyone lost count but while he's shouting he also calls back every other insect to him to protect them.

Naruto taps Shino on the shoulder "Sorry about your bugs Shino and for this." He knocks Shino both unconscious and out of the ring

Kiba and Akamaru take care of him "Damn Naruto and Sakura are unstoppable" Akamaru barks in agreement.

Shikamaru shakes his head "Don't be so quick to call it after all my team is still in there as is Team Guy this isn't over yet."

Kiba nods "Yeah, you're right"

Choji and Ino step forward ready to fight Naruto whispers to Sakura "Why don't you let me take on Ino?"

Sakura looks confused "Why?"

Naruto thinks and says "Well, there are a lot of reasons, you and here just started getting along again I wouldn't want you two to resent each other if you went to hard on each other there are of course a few other reasons but mostly cause the way she's looking at me I think she's got a bone to pick with me and what better way to settle things than to fight on the battlefield and get it out of her system."

Sakura nods "Thanks Naruto… but you better leave a Shadow Cloen with me. As much as I hate to admit it Choji is strong I might not win just by myself."

Naruto nods "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" he creates two clones for Sakura "There you can have two."

Sakura chuckles "Thanks, alright let's do this.

They all jump to their opponents in the centre using chakra to make sure they don't fall into the new lake/pond Sakura just created no words are spoken but they all know what the other is thinking "Let's do this."

Kakashi sighs "Tsunade I probably don't need to say this but your student is almost as dangerous as you are!"

Tsunade nods "Yeah I agree, I couldn't be prouder!"

Kakashi sighs "Not quite what I had in mind."

Jiraiya suddenly appears out of nowhere "Ah, so this is where you all were!"

Kakashi steps back surprised "Master Jiraiya, you're here."

Jiraiya nods "Yeah I wanted to talk to Naruto about something but it seems he's in his test right now correct?"

Tsunade nods "Yes, and he has don excellently all that's left is the remainder of Team Asuma and the whole of Team Guy."

Jiraiya nods "Excellent. Well it seems your student is giving him a run for his money in the excellence department I mean a new pond really?"

Tsunade chuckles "It was your students idea after seeing Sakura use her strength."

Jiraiya laughs "Sounds like something he'd do." He continues to laugh and Tsunade joins in.

Kakashi sighs "This can't end well."

Sakura and the Naruto shadow clones face off against Choji dodging his partial-expansions his punches and kicks Sakura winks at Naruto and Naruto gets what she wants so he gets ready and Sakura jumps into the air and with the left foot of one of Naruto's Shadow Clones and the right foot of his other they push Sakura forward by pushing their feet against hers and she charges up her fist full of chakra and shouts "Either defend yourself or get outta the way but I wouldn't recommend taking this attack head on Choji!"

Choji nervous screams "Ahh!" he jumps into the water with Shikamaru, Kiba, Akamaru and Shino "Hey guys."

All of them just nod "Hey…"

Naruto's shadow clones disappear meanwhile Ino is putting the beat down on Naruto, Naruto finally grabs her foot as she's about to kick him and he pushes her away a few feet then stands up and says "You know Ino I'm trying really hard to not take this personally but… do you hate me or something?"

Ino shakes her head "Hate, you don't be silly, I absolutely despise you!"

Naruto sighs "Okay why?"

Ino angry "Why!? Why!? How long you got, I got plenty of reasons let's start with the basics, first off you left Sakura alone after she begged you never to leave again she was vulnerable if it wasn't for Hanami she would probably still be down in the dumps about you and Sasuke! Next you forced her to be a single bother at the age of 16! Last but not least it's your fault she was disowned by her parents!"

Sakura gasps "Ino! Stop!"

Naruto looks to Sakura and back to Ino "Wait, what do you mean she tol me she's just been so busy her parents and her schedules never sync up."

Ino annoyed glares at Sakura "I can't vent at him if you don't tell him everything he's done Sakura!"

Sakura sighs "But I don't want him to feel guilty"

Ino screams "Why not! He's not a nice person! He left you alone, single mother raising a child!"

Naruto looks from Ino to Sakura back to Ino again and asks "Will someone tell me what she's talking about!?"

Ino sighs "Fine, if you won't tell him then…"

Sakura stops her "No, no I'll tell him. Fine the reason mum and dad have never met Hanami is because they don't want to she's your daughter they would not tell me why but they wanted me to get rid of Hanami they seemed fine until after I told them it was your child they screamed for days and told me to get rid of it locked me in my room deprived me and her of food, until finally they gave me two choices either leave and never come back or get rid of the baby they had a bag ready for me so without a second thought I took the bag and went to Tsunade for help, she understood what happened immidiately and let me stay with her until something could be arranged."

Naruto sighs "Punch me!"

Ino smiles "with pleasure!"

Naruto groans "Not you you've punched me plenty and I'm sure you'll get another chance in a minute but Sakura I want yo uto punch me really hard, possibly without chakra but if you must you can punch me with your chakra fist or whatever you call it."

Shikamaru shouts "Isn't that a bit excessive!"

Ino shouts back "Stay out of this!"

Sakura shakes her head "I'm not gonna punch you Naruto."

Naruto frowns "Why, you've done it before."

Sakura sighs "That was different this is… I won't punch you because you feel guilty or that I need to punch you to repay me for you not being there or something like that."

Naruto glares at her "But I wasn't there for you I abandoned tou after I promised not to."

Sakura chuckles "Well technically you didn't promise I asked you to stay and you just hugged me"

Naruto groans "Yeah, but it was implied that, that was me promising you… you know what it doesn't matter I left you and Hanami alone and without anyone even your parents abandoned you and I wasn't there for you, I…!"

Sakura smiles "You did what you needed to now your stronger than ever, we're the best team there is and are four team members away from defeating the entire rookie #12 excluding team #7 that is. Now come on are you gonna beat Ino or should I take over!"

Naruto sighs then looks at Ino "Well you heard the lady "Let's do this! Shadow Clone Jutsu!" a shadow clone appears next to him and builds the Rasengan in the originals hand Naruto holds it high into the air then concentrates more and more chakra until it becomes massive

everyone looks horrified Tsunade turns to Jiraiya "Jiraiya how far did you push the Rasengan!?"

Jiraiya shrugs "Well let me put it to you in simple terms that's only 15% in how big he's managed to make it although we agreed using it at 100% would be dangerous for himself and the planet that's not even talking about his opponent."

Kakashi chuckles almost defeated "Yep, definitely glad I passed on taking those two on, not even sure I should take over as Team #7's leader."

Tsunade shakes her head "Don't worry about it, they still need you they're young after all and one of them isn't even a Chunin."

Kakashi nods "As you wish Lady Hokage"

Naruto finishes charging it up and shouts "Giant…!" but before he can finish Ino cuts in.

Ino puts her hand up almost like she was asking a question in class and says "Um… I quit, surrender and forfeit all that I'm out."

Naruto sighs "Oh, okay then."

Sakura and Naruto turn to Team Guy and Naruto asks "You guys aren't gonna quit are you?"

Tenten nods "Yeah sorry I'm out there's no way I'll be able to put up much of a fight."

Neji steps forward "I on the other hand welcome the chal…"

Sakura has already launched herself "Cherry Blossom Clash!" she punches Neji before he even had a chance to ready himself and he's out of the ring leaving only Lee."

Neji lands in the water spits a whole bunch out and says "That's not fair I wasn't ready."

Sakura sighs "Yeah, well I'm really tired and didn't care much for a dragged out fight, those two on the other hand look ready to go so it was either you or Lee that I take out and I owe him for saving me all those years ago."

Neji sighs "Fine next time then."

Naruto and Lee smile at each other and Naruto charges with his Giant Rasengan, Lee activates the 8 Inner Gates all the way up to Gate Number Six and they charge at each other full force the impact of both attacks connecting results in both Naruto and Lee flying out of the ring at opposite ends Sakura jumps up to protect Hanami but still remains in the ring.

Tsunade calls it "That's it, this match is over Team #7 wins after all only Sakura remained inside the ring for the entire duration."

Everyone sighs slightly disheartened Naruto laughs "That was awesome, we should do it again some time!"

Kiba shakes his head "No thanks man you two are terrifying when you're desperate, let's be honest if it was just two or even three against you two you wouldn't have been as careful or as strong as you were just now."

Naruto nods "Yeah, that's fair, alright who wants to celebrate me and Sakura rejoining team 7 to go out on missions with a heavy serving of…"

Everyone shouts over Naruto "Ramen!?"

Naruto nods "Yeah, you guys guessed it."

Ino groans "Not that hard, it's like all you ever ate."

Hanami runs over to Naruto "Daddy you were so strong! Can I be strong like that one day!?"

Naruto nods "Absolutely but you'll need to get there slowly start with the basics and always listen to your teachers…" he coughs "most of the time anyway."

Sakura glares "Hey, I heard that!"

Naruto pretends he didn't hear her "So who's up for Ramen!?"

All unenthusiastic ally say "Yay…"

Meanwhile up in the Messenger Receiver Crow's Nest a Ninja is slacking off whistling as a Sand Hawk lands "Wow, a Message from the sand"

The Ninja's partner asks "Yeah, what's it say?"

The ninja chuckles "C'mon you know we're not supposed to read these."

The ninja's partner encourages him "Oh, go on it won't hurt anybody plus you're a really good decoder you'll probably know what it says before anyone else."

The ninja sighs then opens it reads it and his heart stops "No way, it can't be I must be reading it wrong!"

The ninja's partner looks worried "What's it say?"

The ninja almost afraid says "The Village Hidden in the Sand asks for reinforcements, the Akatsuki has just kidnapped the Kazekage."

Both of them stare in silence before Anko speaks up from the corner "Well why are you standing around alert the Hoakge at once!"

Both Ninja looks shocked "Anko Sensei!"

Anko sighs then snatches the message from them then reads it herself "Wait a minute you don't need any decoding tools for this? Just who are you?"

The Ninja mumbling says "I… I… I… um…"

Anko annoyed shouts "Spit it out!"

The ninja stands up straight and shouts "My name is Shiho ma'am!"

Anko asks "Why are you assigned here and not the deciphering division your talents would be used better there?

Shiho goes to say something "Um…"

Anko shakes her head "Doesn't matter go there now, your being transferred by my recommendation now I'm gonna take this to Lady Hokage at once."

Both stand up straight "Yes Ma'am!"

Anko runs off but not before saying "Keep up the good work you two!" she heads to the Hokage's office straight away

To Be Continued

Okay let's talk about the Reviews I'm a bit weird when it comes to explaining things so I may have in the previous sections come off as obnoxious or rude so for that I would just like to apologize I would first like to thank everyone who reviewed yes everyone.

Merchant Of Blue Death: Okay thanks you so much for your review, I know you were a bit annoyed to put it mildly when I started asking for reviews to upload my next chapter however I'm glad I did especially because of your last review you not only told me what you thought was good but helped me fix some of the things I screwed up which I will fix when I get a chance to update it so thanks you.

As for your suggestion of having a Beta I tried that before but everyone was unreliable I ended up waiting months before I heard back and some just up and ghosted me as for grammar programs they are... for me... more harmful than good with the stuff I have now I'm able to write without interruptions however with other stuff such as Gramberly or other such programs it points out the tiniest detail and I know that's the point but I spend more time fixing unimportant things than actually writing it would take me months to finish one chapter if that was the case.

It might not be perfect but it's how I'm comfortable with writing and as I get more experience and learn more things I'll eventually get better and better.

Rivet94: Thank you for the compliment however I have to say I got no idea what stilted means don't think I've heard that phrase before.

Lizzie223: Thank you I'm glad your enjoying the story, it's part of the reason I write to create enjoyable stories for as many people as possible.

FadeToBlack1994: There are two reasons why Hanami does not have Whiskers like Boruto and Hanami the first and most important is because I didn't create Hanami I don't even know who did, she is part of the NaruSaku Fandom where there is lots of their children she like many of them do not have whiskers and that is why she is like that.

The Second reason is more I don't know logical sort of well basically my point of view of how it should work Naruto has the whiskers because Kushina had the Nine-Tails inside her and Naruto grew inside her because she's the mother and all that so part of the Nine-Tails Chakra would have been absorbed into Naruto while he was growing however Sakura Haruno isn't even a Jinchuriki let alone host to the Nine-Tails so sure Hanami and the other kids will have some awesome powers cause Naruto is their dad and as I said he is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki however they did not grow while inside him cause... I'm not explaining that.

But yeah those are the reasons for Hanami and I think I should point out I don't mind constructive criticism as long as that's what it is and not just plain bullying I have started a fair few stories as you can see by just scrolling through my profile and throughout my journey here on fanfiction I have gotten a fair few reviews and some of them have been cruel, mean and just plain horrifying I've been told that I have no talent that my stories suck and to just plain kill myself I know I'm no Jane Austen and I have a lot to learn as for how you put it "Holding Chapters Hostage for Reviews" I'm not the only one who does this I've seen plenty of Authors on here do the same I don't see why it's a problem I don't have a problem writing them a review to get them to upload the next chapter.

thedarkpokemaster: Yes, I will delve deeper into Sasori's past to explain why he reacted that way, I was inspired to make him a more relate-able and just plain good villain when I watched the Infinite Tsukuyomi Illusions and they kept making him the villain yet with no character at all he was bland and just uninteresting I decided that the next story I did would have him not as the main villain but as one that had motivations and emotion people could not sympathize with cause he's evil but empathize.

Ian Rathwell: Thanks glad you liked it.

zafnak: Thanks you let me know about a mistake but like you said it was funny so I hope it's still funny the way that I fixed it.

Guest: Well you asked for it and here it is.

Guest007: Thanks what would recommend I know there are places I need to improve but if you or anyone has any suggestions I will take them into consideration.

ultrachols: Glad you think so.

Okay as a last message as always thanks for reading the latest chapter hope you enjoyed it, I am still working on chapter #5 right now I think I'm a quarter of the way done, to thank everyone for their patients I'll give you a little something, something that if you like I will continue the trend in the following chapters.

Next time on NaruSaku Shippuden...

Naruto and his friends celebrate his victory and his return to being an active Shinobi but he can't get out of his head what Ino and Sakura told him so he decides to pay Sakura's parents a little visit unknown to Sakura of course what will she do when she finds out, what will they do or say to Naruto find out next time...

Sorry I know it's not the best Summary but yeah that's the basis for next Chapter if you want me to continue doing short synopsis's let me know and I'll keep it up in the meantime if I could get 10 Reviews for this chapter it would really help me out and I'll get the next chapter done ASAP thanks and I'll see you all next chapter.
