Sorry it's a short one, the scenes are really separated from one another in the episode, making it difficult for Naruto to be in all of them.

A Maelstrom's Venture

Chapter 35

SPHINX Raising

OSI Base

Right now everyone was doing their own thing, with Gary trying to recruit new members for SPHINX, with Hunter doing the same thing for O.S.I. all the while Naruto was visiting Brock for the day, though obviously Hunter didn't like the idea of a "civilian" simply walking around the place, especially while wearing armour and an axe on his back, so like he did with Brock when he first met him, he attacked Naruto, only for Naruto to grab the back of Hunter's outfit and hold him up in place, while Hunter kept swinging his knife at Naruto but getting nowhere, except maybe a few little papercuts, but Naruto wasn't really bothered by such a thing seeing as his healing factor had dealt with worse.

Though Hunter soon tired out from his "attack" and just hung off the ground by Naruto's hand, while Brock was trying desperately not to laugh at the sight, it wasn't long before Hunter had given up, grumbling about overgrown brats making fun of him, though soon yells out why Naruto was even there to begin with.

"(Ahem!) He's just visiting me for the day sir, believe me, when it comes to trusting someone to watch my back, I can count on my own son to do so." Brock stated with absolute certainty, making Naruto feel somewhat happy that his dad trusted him so much.

Though Hunter on the other hand, ended up yelling at the two, while also yelling at both Brock and Shoreleave for botching up the mission, even though it was pretty much Gary's fault, Hunter didn't really care who's fault it was, just as long as both men cleaned up their mess.

With Naruto grumbling about old men not getting any fiber in their diet as all three left the office, "AND GET A HAIRCUT BRAT!" Hunter yelled out to Naruto.

Only for Naruto to calmly state, "Of course I won't." While sticking his tongue out at the man as the door closes, practically joking around with the serious man. (A.N. Lethal Weapon 3 Reference.)

Brock couldn't help but be impressed with Naruto not taking Hunter's orders to heart, finding the whole thing comedic, where Brock and Shoreleave quickly rushed off to take out the place where SPHINX was based at, ie. the Venture Compound, meaning that they were planning to destroy the whole thing, after clearing Gary out of it of course.

With Brock asking Naruto to stay in his room for the time being, which was starting to bore Naruto, only for Amber Gold to make her appearance, "Oh, hello, are you waiting for Brock, I was wondering if he could help me with something." She asked Naruto, not really knowing about him at the moment since she was more focused on her missions then looking up personal profiles of her fellow agents.

Naruto looks towards the beauty that had asked that question, "Actually, he's pretty busy at the moment, since he's dealing with a little issue concerning the whole SPHINX thing with Gary, but if you want, I could help you while my father is out." Naruto simply supplied, catching the women's attention.

"Oh you're Naruto, wow, you look so much like your father, only your hair is slightly different." She states while giving his hair a rub, amazed by how soft it felt, even with it's spiky look that seems to just spring back up, which she found funny.

Naruto just shrugs his shoulders, "Yeah, I didn't get the spikiness from my dad's side of the family, the spikiness comes from my mother's side." He simply explains.

Amber soon moved on from that, "Hmm, well, I suppose you can help me, since I need to grab a few things from the supply closet and they're a bit out of reach for me." She quickly asks, with Naruto shrugging his shoulders and went to help the woman out.

Few Hours Later

After Naruto had "helped" Amber out, he went to the bridge, only to see a group of old people walk by him dressed in SPHINX outfits, "Wait, are you guys the original SPHINX agents?" He couldn't help but ask, getting a 'yes' from them, "Guys, you do know the whole "cyanide chip" can be removed right, O.S.I. got WAY better at removing those things in later years, mostly because the "Countess" had turned herself in allowing the O.S.I. scientists to both study and scan the chip and have it removed from her head easily, which is why she's happily retired and no longer doing this crap." Naruto simply states to the older men, shocking them.

"Where did you get that information, that is highly classified!" Hunter quickly states, making Naruto look towards the man with a deadpan look.

"Come on old man, you do remember who my mother is right, she practically raised me to gather info and whatever." Naruto answered back, making Hunter grumble about snot-nosed punks sticking their nose in where it doesn't belong.

Brock quickly cleared his throat, "(Ahem!) Come on Naruto, let's get Hank back to the Compound now, before you cause Hunter even more trouble." With him quickly ushering both Naruto and Hank, who was in a woman's strength suit off the base, with Gary following them.

As the group were in the jet heading for the Venture Compound, Hunter suddenly came back up on a screen, "WHAT IN SAM BLUE BLAZERS DID YOU DO BRAT!?" With him yelling on the screen.

Naruto just smiled innocently, "Why, I have no idea what you mean, I was quietly sitting in my dad's room waiting for his return(!)" Naruto had "innocently" stated, making Hunter even more angry.

"You know exactly what you did brat, you hijacked the system to only play this god awful song! ON REPEAT!" Hunter stated, while managing to switch the video audio to the full station, allowing the group to hear the song "YMCA" playing in the background, with Shoreleave dancing behind Hunter, "DAMMIT SHORELEAVE THIS ISN'T A DANCING MATTER! Figure out how to turn that annoying music off!" Hunter then turned to yell at the gay man making him rush away.

"THAT'S IT BRAT! IF I CATCH YOU HERE AGAIN I'M GONNA-!""Buh-Bye!" Naruto quickly interrupts by hanging up the call. (A.N. Harley Quinn steals the Batmobile reference. lol)

All the while Hank and Gary were laughing in the background at what Naruto had just done, though it did cheer up Gary somewhat after the hover SPHINX got destroyed.

Though Brock gave Naruto a look, even though he too found the whole thing funny, he just got to know why Naruto did what he did, "What, I was bored waiting for you to return and show me around some more, not my fault the old man can't take a joke, besides, it should end soon, in another 4 hours or so." Naruto answered back, making Brock shake his head at his son pulling a prank on the O.S.I. simply proving how much he doesn't like sitting around in a military-type place.

The End.

There you have it, Naruto visiting his dad, got bored and pulled a prank, while also "helping" Amber with her supply run, while also giving Shoreleave something fun to listen to, even if it was an old clique, he still enjoyed it. lol

Also, just to point out, Naruto doesn't know that Amber was married, or that she was "seeing" his dad at the time, so he could be given a reprieve from getting into trouble for it. lol
