After thinking things over, I decided to give this one-shot another chapter, just to hopefully get the ball going for more Naruto/The Venture Bros. Crossovers.

A Maelstrom's Venture

Chapter 2

Eeney, Meeney, Miney... Magic!

Venture Industries

It's been a few weeks of Naruto staying with the Venture Group, where Rusty had made an obvious remark about Brock not keeping it in his pants, which pretty much flew over the two brothers heads, while wondering if Brock had something in his pants that made people, this obviously caused the adults to become a little awkward, while Naruto was busy trying to hold in his laughter at the boys making an innuendo that the boys didn't understand.

Anyway, after the introduction, as well as Rusty helping Brock with the paternity test, where it turned out that Naruto was 100% Brock's son, with Naruto making sure to destroy any blood that Rusty had taken, since Naruto had "heard" how the bald man liked to experiment on things, and he didn't want his blood to be one of them, with Brock agreeing with Naruto on that front as well, after coming down from his shock of him actually being a father.

Where at one point Brock had tried offering his son a cig, not really knowing that the 17 year old wasn't allowed to smoke, but Naruto had declined the smoke, stating the negatives for such a thing, which Brock had reluctantly agreed to, after looking at his own fingers in order to see if they were stained by the cigs, but luckily, and thankfully, he wasn't so he just continued smoking them.

The boys, Hank and Dean, on the other hand were excited, in their own naive way, of having another person their own age around, figuring it'd be fun, though while the two were chatting animatedly with each other, Naruto had simply looked towards his father and Rusty, questioning the two if the boys were "okay" in the head, with his father simply telling him that he'll explain things at a later date.

Afterwhich, Naruto had questioned Rusty about installing a "mind-copier" in the boys bed, that way each night, the boys minds would be scanned and have their memories copied, then if ever the boys end up dying on a mission, or whatever, the memories would then be downloaded into the next clones of the boys, that way, the boys wouldn't have to "relearn" about everything, or have the unfortunate memory of their deaths, since the "mind-copier" would only update the boys heads the night before.

With that idea given to Rusty, he began his work on it, wanting to get to it straight away, but due to Rusty's attention span, he soon got bored of it and moved on to something else that caught his interest, where Naruto had simply shrugged his shoulders and moved on from it, since it wasn't really his place to keep the bald-headed man focused on one thing, or telling him how to raise his "children" at that.

Anyway, after the few weeks, the group had got use to Naruto staying with them, along with Naruto sometimes training with his father, whether it was being a spotter for each other or sparring with each other, they had fun, though when Brock had accidentally severed Naruto's hand, with the large man apologising for it, Naruto was cradling his wrist, screaming his head off, thus causing his father to become even more worried, until Naruto began laughing at the man's expense.

Where Naruto had then simply got up, walked to his severed hand and picked it up, while stating, "Could ya lend me a hand(!)" In a joking manner, where Naruto had then put the hand back in place, only for Brock to become shocked that the hand had "restitched" itself back on to Naruto's wrist, with all the muscle fibers, arteries and nerves reattaching as well, allowing Naruto to move his fingers in a natural sense, where the hand had healed to the point that there wasn't even a scar from where Brock had sliced.

Naruto soon explained his regenerative powers and where they came from, which had caught Rusty's attention, with the man wanting to experiment on Naruto, but both father and son had denied him the chance, stating that if he even tried to, that both Sampsons would put the fear of god into the scientist, and considering Rusty's views on religion, he quickly stopped asking.

Night Time

Everyone was in bed, though Brock and Rusty were having nightmares, and the boys were fooling around with an ouija board, Naruto was peacefully resting, seeing as he was trained in meditation to the point that even while asleep his mind was able to mentally block any and all attacks from anyone with psychic powers, so he had a peaceful night.

Which allowed him to wake up the next day, along with going for an early morning jog around the industry, though as he entered the kitchen, wanting to grab some breakfast before he began his day-to-day life with the Ventures, having took his shirt off and using it to wipe the sweat from his body.

He came across both Dean and a young girl about their age, "Hey Dean, who's this, since I'm pretty sure I haven't seen her around the compound." Naruto couldn't help but ask, being a little cautious of the new face.

Where Dean soon explained how the girl's dad was renting a space in the compound, causing Naruto to grumble, "Damn it Doc." Since it was a slight breach of security to allow a couple unknowns into the place.

The girl on the other hand was blushing at the sight of Naruto's strong physic, seeing as Naruto had a six pack abs, strong pecs (that could no doubt do the "pec-pop of love), and a pair of strong arms, but her eyes soon noticed a single drop of sweat sliding down Naruto's chest and abs, causing her to both fidget and bite her lip at the sight.

Naruto just sighs, being more focused on the "breach" than what the girl was doing, "Alright Dean, I'm gonna hop in the shower, then I'll go talk to your dad about this, god knows what he'll do next." Naruto states to the boy, after grabbing a quick snack, planning to grab something else after his shower.

As he was leaving, Naruto looks towards the girl, "I'm Naruto by the way." He soon says, knocking the girl out of her thoughts, "O-Oh! I-I'm Triana!" She shyly introduced herself to the heartthrob she just met, with Naruto leaving the two by themselves, though her mind was soon coming up with different scenarios of Naruto, herself and the shower that the muscular blond was going towards, causing her to miss some of the things that Dean was saying to her.

Though while Dean was "falling in love" everyone else were busy doing their own thing, what with Rusty talking to the now resident, Dr Orpheus, with Brock and Hank working on Helper, Dean was practicing being a boyfriend towards Triana, as for Naruto, he was fixing himself something more hearty to eat after his shower.

During his shower, Naruto had missed Rusty and Orpheus's talk about Brock being in the "joy chamber" along with trying to figure out how to get Brock out of it.

Anyway, turns out Helper had put all his clothes in the wash, last night, before the robot had broken down, so his clothes needed a second wash then needed to be put in the dryer, so right now, Naruto only had on a towel around his waist, with his body and hair still damp from his shower, where after doing himself a nice fry up, he started eating, which means, right now, he was eating his food in just his towel.

Though during his eating, Triana had entered the kitchen, where seeing Naruto's state of dress had caused the girl to blush at the sight, "W-Why are you dressed like that!?" She couldn't help but ask in surprise.

Naruto gulps down a mouthful of food simply replied back, "Helper had put all my clothes in the wash last night, he was suppose to have put them in the dryer when the machine had finished, but he broke down, so now I've got to wait until my clothes have finished drying." Not really being embarrassed at his state of dress.

Hearing this, Triana after grabbing a pudding cup, like her father had offered her, sat down from across of him, putting the spoon down on the table in order to open the cup, she began asking Naruto questions about his life and time with the Ventures, with Naruto answering to the best of his ability, without spilling any classified stuff.

Triana was amazed at the kind of life Naruto had went through, voicing her opinion about it and everything, Clack! "Oops! S-Sorry, let me just get that." Turns out in her excitement to hear more of Naruto's adventure, she'd knocked her spoon onto the floor, Naruto on the other hand simple hummed in agreement, focusing more on his food than what Triana was doing.

Yet as Triana was grabbing her spoon, she gave off a silent gasp, since her eyes had drifted towards Naruto's lower half under the table, but because he was only wearing a towel she was now looking a certain "3rd" appendage, being amazed and turned on at the sight and size of Naruto, though she quickly got herself under control and pulled herself out from under the table, "E-Excuse me!" She quickly stated, while rushing out of the kitchen, making Naruto puzzled at how odd she was behaving.

That is until he felt a slight "breeze" under the table, looking down, he soon noticed why she left the way she did, "Oh, whoops, guess I really need to check on the dryer now." Due to his "training" with the brothel girls he was never really embarrassed around women, even being naked in front of them weren't embarrassing to him, seeing as the girls from the brothel had stated that he had "nothing" to be embarrassed about and would please any girl he was with, so he had plenty of confidence in that field.

All the while missing what the group had gotten up to, with them not mentioning what they've witnessed in Rusty's "Joy Chamber," but stated that Orpheus had sent it back to wherever it belongs, or whatever.

Though after that, Triana did come around more often, in order to hear more stories from Naruto, but mostly she couldn't get what she "saw" out of her head, where every now and then her cheeks became red.

When Naruto finally got the chance to meet her father, Orpheus, the man went into a tandem of overactive nonsense, mostly about the artefact that gave Naruto his healing abilities wanting to possess him, but Naruto had brushed it off stating how due to his training and meditation training, he'd "delt" that part of the artefact a long time ago, stating that his willpower and mental fortitude was strong enough to block out anyone with psychic abilities wanting to try and take over or read his mind.

Which after a quick scan from Orpheus, the man relented, agreeing that Naruto was safe from any mental harm, with Naruto also being happy that Orpheus couldn't access his memories either, due to Triana getting an eyeful of Naruto's junk, and he doesn't want her father to know about that.

After that it was business as usual with everyone, along with Dean hitting puberty and "learning how to be a good boyfriend" in the shower, which his father had quickly ran away from since he didn't want to know what his son was talking about.

The End.

There you have it, an idea of Naruto's interaction with the Ventures Group, along with Naruto meeting Triana, with said girl possibly developing feelings for him and catching a "glimpse" of him as well, which gave a funny scene. lol

As for why Naruto wasn't involved with the whole "Joy Chamber" thing, I just figured he'd be better off for a basic intro to the group before diving into their activities, but if whoever wishes to adopt this idea wants him to have a more active role in this chapter, then they're more than welcomed to put their own spin on it.
