Alright here we are boys and girls back with another chapter of this. I kind of forgot the last update I did for this, wasn't actually part of the main story but the Kushina omake, so yeah, my bad? In my defence though, I've got goldfish memory. So there, absolved of all sins.
What can I say for this chapter? Oh, I know, watch out. There's some really really really lewd, hardcore shit at the very end, we're talking full on lewd, NSFW hand holding. Children, do not read the last part of the chapter, it shall stain your pure innocent virgin eyes.
Standard opening here to let you guys know, If you want to read ahead in advance, with the Big P fucking me over, you'll need to head over to my subscribestar. You can find it under 0jordinio0, no spaces in their search bar, simple enough. There's a bunch of advanced chapters up there already. A fair few for this, The Scaped(which isn't up here yet, Jordinio Version, Beyond Critical, Systematic Shinobi: Multiverse Mayhem, Dragon Tale, A failed Future(another one not up here yet), Systematic Huntsman, Stacking The Deck, Power, A Scottish Dragon In This Wonderful World, ...and a bunch more shit.
And beyond that, if you just wanna toss cash my way for whatever reason, I've got a Ko-fi simply at /Jordoz.
The next morning, there was a massive shit eating grin on Daiki's face as he soared above the clouds.
Anko being carried by him however, was just staring at him in absolute disbelief. "How do you function?" she asked, "Like seriously, the old man has been trying to get her to return to the village for over a decade now, and you manage to get her to agree in the span of a few hours by being an obnoxious little shit, and somehow getting into bed with her as well. That…that makes no sense!"
He resisted the urge to laugh.
He understood her disbelief and utter confusion over everything that went down with Tsunade. To be perfectly honest he actually had little idea how he pulled that off as well.
Well, giving her, her youth back was obviously a big part of it. But beyond that, he had no idea how he managed to make her get over her fear of blood. Like, yeah Naruto managed to do the same in the span of a few minutes of showing up to the fight with Orochimaru and Kabuto…
But still.
It made him think it wasn't really a trauma over blood, but rather something to do with being stuck in the past until she got clobbered over the head and knocked some sense into.
That was the only thing that made sense.
"To be honest, I've no idea how I pulled that off as well, I was flying by the seat of my pants," he admitted with a shrug, "Best I can guess? The old man was too soft with her. The nice gentle approach rarely works for people caught up in a pity party, especially arrogant prideful woe is me types. But I ain't the old man I have no reason to give her all the allowances he did, yet like the old man I'm not some randomer she could just throw her fist at and squash."
Anko hummed, "I suppose that makes some sense I suppose…" she trailed off before scoffing, "And listen to you calling somebody else arrogant and prideful, pot calling the kettle black much?"
"I never said I wasn't." Daiki shrugged. As it was, they'd split from Tsunade and Shizune when morning came, they had a few things to take care of before they could return to the village.
And that would work out best, because he didn't want it known she would be in the village come the end of the chunin exams, and had even asked her to keep it on the downlow herself.
Orochimaru would probably get spooked mightily if he knew Tsunade had returned to the village as well.
As it was, he'd been avoiding bringing it up with the old man and getting the village prepared in advance, because he knew Orochimaru would hear of it somehow. He wasn't sure how deep his fingers were in Konoha, beyond knowing there was quite a few traitors beyond just Kabuto, and he only knew of a few of them.
If he miscalculated and one of them learned of plans to counter Orochimaru and reported it back to him, there was no telling what nonsense he would pull in response.
Like what if he pulled a Kabuto and made an army of Edo Tensei in advance? While he hadn't perfected the technique like Kabuto, and thus were way weaker when revived by him currently, it would still be game over for Konoha and everyone really.
No, he wanted to deal with both Orochimaru and Kabuto in one fell swoop during the invasion and take them out. It would put the people of the Leaf at risk, but less than the normal timeline because he was here.
And not only did he know of Orochimaru's plans, but would have hundreds of clones ready and waiting to burst out of Isobu's dimension the second shit went down and dog pile every Sand or Sound ninja in sight.
Gaara was really the only outlier, but he could be dealt with easily enough as he was right now. He was nothing without Shukaku at the moment.
Once he dealt with Orochimaru and Kabuto, there was only one threat left he needed to deal with to stop Madara being brought back as an Edo Tensei, and that was Black Zetsu, because he was betting that clown knew it.
Orochimaru, Kabuto, Black Zetsu and Obito.
They were the ones that needed to die to make sure Madara couldn't be revived at all.
"You realise the old man probably already knows about your little spat with Tsunade yeah?" Anko broke him from his thoughts, "We have agents all across Fire Country and beyond, no way we didn't have some in town that saw that fight and didn't send a messenger hawk back to the old man."
"No doubt." he laughed lightly. After all, Tsunade and Shizune weren't the only chakra signatures he'd seen within the town, just the biggest. He'd picked out what seemed to be a few dozen chunin tier chakra capacities spread throughout the town.
"Heh, he's gonna be pissed at you." Anko laughed at him.
"I'll just tell him you dared me to try and bed her." Daiki shot back, cutting off her laughter.
"As if he'd believe that!" Anko growled, laughter cutting off, "He knows what you're all about brat."
"We'll see." Daiki smugged at her.
Still, that did remind him of another issue, of another old man that needed to be dealt with.
Danzo.
That old fool seemed to have taken a liking to his attitude before, but he couldn't be entirely sure he'd back him. In that case, there was only one thing to do.
Pay him a visit when he got back.
…Though not before he had made Shisui's sharingan his.
Kotoamatsukami was too much of a threat to deal with, without a way to counter it. Even if the old pretend cripple couldn't use the truly most potent version since Itachi had the proper eye for it.
And who knows, if things went well, he could perhaps even get his hands on some of Hashirama Senju's cells from the old warmonger.
Not long later, he touched down in a secluded forest, lowering Anko down and cutting off his Mysterious Peacock Method jutsu.
"Wait, why are we stopping here?" Anko gave him a confused look, "We're close yeah, but this ain't Waterfall."
"I know, there's just something I want to check right now." Daiki waved her off, he reached for his prize from the night before, the green crystal necklace dangling from his neck and held it up, "This thing has a special ability that makes Bijuu chakra easier to control when worn, the Shodaime used it to help him suppress the bijuu's chakra easier."
Anko raised a brow, "Didn't you say you were a perfect jinchuuriki before? And that you had total control?" she asked.
"I have total control of how I use the power, but it's still a massive amount of chakra, over fifty times the amount of my own and way more potent," Daiki waved her off, "And it isn't like I even have perfect control over my own chakra."
"I mean who does?" Anko shrugged.
'Me, in the future.' Daiki decided internally, but outwardly he just shrugged back, "Exactly. Which is why this necklace will be a big help."
Chakra control after all didn't just help with the formation of jutsu and such and saving chakra. But, it made it even easier to form jutsu and other techniques.
And thus…faster.
And with the help of it, he may even be capable of some crazy feats. Like combining the Rasenshuriken with the Bijuudama. One of the most potent jutsu Naruto ever created in the original timeline.
In fact, nine Bijuudama infused with the various elements of the Bijuu, became known as the most marvellous ninjutsu of all time in that timeline.
Naruto had needed to master senjutsu to create that technique, but with the neckalce and his own chakra enhancements….he might not need it.
And if he could accomplish that…
What if when he managed to recreate the Spiralling Fear Wheel? What if he managed to add an element to it as well?
What if he managed to combine that variation with a Bijuudama?
'Quite frankly, it's an absurd thought,' Isobu chimed in, 'Going by how much the Rasenshuriken increases in potency from the normal Rasengna. Applying that same thing to the Spiralling Fear Wheel and then combining that with a Bijuudama? It could possibly destroy the entire planet.'
Yeah, that sounded about right.
It was a delicious thought to be honest. It would probably end up becoming a completely last resort jutsu that could only be used when absolutely everything was fucked.
Or when in a completely different dimension.
But it was still something incredible to have on hand to use as a last ditch kind of thing.
But anyway, beyond even that, just getting to the point where his control was good enough to instantly form and fire off a standard Bijuudama would be insane in of itself.
And now on that topic.
'Status.' he thought, and a second later a familiar black screen with crimson red writing appeared in his vision.

'Hoh?' he thought, eyes widening ever so slightly as he took in his statistics. His clones had really went all in on the fire style element training huh? Like, he knew that already, but he hadn't expected the exercises they'd completed that the old man had given him, would bring him to the mastery level of it so quickly.
Not only that, but in the process he'd broken into the four hundred mark in ninjutsu, his highest by far at this point, with chakra control coming in at a slightly distant second.
And to think that was only two elements at the mastery level. What about when the two expert tier lightning and water element hit mastery? what about when the adept level Earth?
He might actually break over four hundred and fifty.
…Which reminded him, he really needed to find out about another advanced lightning style training method, he knew of up to mastery with Earth and Water, but he didn't know what to do going forward with Lightning.
Which was kind of hilarious considering it was his actual base affinity. He had managed to pry out the specifics from Tsunade about her Body Pathway Derangement lightning jutsu, but that wasn't going to do it.
'Well, whatever.' he shrugged mentally.
He'd ask the old man or something when he got back. Or, bribe Kakashi into it with offering to take care of the Orochimaru soul shard in Sasuke's Curse Mark.
Granted he was going to do that anyway, but Kakashi didn't need to know that.
"Now let's try this out." Daiki smirked dismissing his status screen for the moment, and clenching his fists as he pulled upon Isobu's chakra.
Almost instantly, a familiar crimson bubbling red cloak of chakra sizzled into existence around him, three massive shrimp like energy tails fluttering languidly behind him.
"You know, I don't think i'll ever get used to how you can call up such absurdly potent chakra right in front of me…yet I'm not able to sense it at all, while staring straight at it." Anko snorted, as she hopped up onto a tree above and sat on one of the over reaching branches
He just smirked as he moved the chakra cloak to his will, the three massive shrimp like tails extending and shrinking. Snapping out like whips with a thought, darting through the air like striking serpents.
Hmm.
It was a bit hard to notice since he already had such good control of the chakra cloak like this-
But…
'It's a little smoother.' he noticed. A little bit stronger, a little bit more potent, a little bit faster.
Overall just a little bit better.
Awesome.
"Alright, now let's try a jutsu." he mused aloud, holding his palm out and collecting the chakra of the cloak around him, condensing it into a familiar spiralling sphere of deep green.
The Rasengan formed in the blink of an eye. Twice as fast as he could form one usually.
"Oh yeah, this is good." he grinned widely.
"Is that the Yondaime's fucking Rasengan?!" Anko sputtered from above him, eyes flying wide open.
…Oh right, he hadn't shown anybody he could do this yet.
Oops.
Daiki froze for a split second, realizing he might have let the cat out of the bag a bit too casually. He turned his head toward Anko, who was staring at the glowing green sphere in his hand like it was about to explode—and not in the fun way.
"Uh... yeah," he admitted sheepishly, rubbing the back of his head with his free hand. The Rasengan hovered steadily above his palm, a testament to his control. "Forgot to mention I, uh... figured this out a while ago."
Anko leapt down from the tree, landing in front of him with a thud. Her hands were on her hips, her expression a mix of disbelief and irritation. "A while ago? And you're just now showing it off? Kid that's the freaking Yondaime's Rasengan! How? Why even?"
"To be fair," Daiki said, still grinning, "I haven't had much reason to use it yet. Besides, it's not like I went around bragging about it or anything. I didn't think it was that big of a deal. It wasn't all that hard to figure out."
"Not a big—" Anko cut herself off with a groan, pinching the bridge of her nose. "Let me get this straight. You've been running around with a perfected version of the Fourth Hokage's signature technique, and you didn't think anyone might want to know about that? How did you even do it?"
He resisted the urge to point out that it wasn't perfected, since the Rasengan was never a complete technique to begin with, but refrained for the moment.
Daiki shrugged. "I figured it'd come up eventually. Like now, for example, but it wasn't really a priority," he said casually, the best way to go about this, was to treat it as if it wasn't a big thing, "And like I said it wasn't that hard, I saw some comments about it in a few books and heard a few people talking about it and figured it would be awesome to try and re-create it. I didn't think it would be so easy."
Anko stared at him for a moment, then sighed and ran a hand through her hair. "You're gonna give me a heart attack one of these days, you know that?"
Well, in for a penny, in for a pound right?
"Then I should probably bring up I can do this as well right?" he smirked and made a few rapid hand seals, before holding his hand up, crackling lightning burst into existence around his arm, shrieking through the forest around them like the chirping of a thousand angry birds.
Anko stared at his arm blankly, "Of course you can do Kakashi's Chidori as well, why am I not surprised?" she rolled her eyes, "I don't suppose he taught you that?"
"You kidding?" Daiki snorted, "He barely teaches his own team never mind me. I reverse engineered it because dabbing on Kakashi makes me sleep like a baby at night."
When he became Hokage, he was going to make it a national holiday. Dab on Kakashi day.
A day where everyone in the the entire Leaf Village, nay, the entire Land of Fire would come together to make fun of Kakashi.
Not long later, he left the clearing behind.
This time, alone.
He left a clone with Anko, for the simple matter that he wasn't sure that Waterfall would let Anko in with him.
Surprisingly she didn't make any fuss. It was as if she had long since given up trying to apply normal standards to him.
As soon as he was in the air, he sent a message with the Wave Transmission Technique to let Fu know he was on his way and would be there within a few minutes.
And it wasn't long before the massive mountain the Hidden Waterfall Village was located within came into sight.
Just as marvellously huge as he remembered.
"DAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!"
A high pitched and excited squeal made him look up, and his eyes zoomed in on a blur of tan and mint chocolate zipping down from the cloud line.
His eyes widened, "Fu!?" was all he managed to say before she reached him and slammed into him like a falling meteor in a tangle of limbs.
Thin svelte brown arms wrapped around his shoulders, "Daiki you're finally back!" Fu beamed excitedly as they tumbled out of the air, nuzzling her hair against his cheek happily like an overly excited puppy as they free fell, "And you can fly now like me too!"
Yes, yes he could.
Speaking of-
He flared the the chakra around him, righting them mid-air, "Yup I can, I'm sure I already told you that before though."
They talked pretty much every day, Fu was a heavy motormouth that told him all about her day, every day, chattering on and on.
It was quite distracting actually at times.
"Hmm, did you?" Fu cocked her head to the side, wrapping her legs around his waist and tightening her arms around his shoulders to keep herself propped up, "…Probably I guess? I forgot? Teehee." she stuck her tongue out cheekily.
"Classy," he snorted, eyes narrowing slightly on her as he looked over her chakra signature, "You're the real one huh, not a clone?"
While her chakra capacity had definitely grown since he last seen her, she definitely hadn't grown to the point where she'd have more chakra than he last saw her with in a shadow clone.
"Mmm!" Fu nodded, "I told Shibuki you were coming and he said I could fly out and meet you!"
He didn't bother pointing out he was only a few minutes away at most and she didn't need to.
This worked out a little better for him anyway.
"He's sure grown a little more lenient huh?" he raised a brow and snorted, "I suppose his balls that regrew a little bit the last time I was here, grew a little bit more."
"Well that, and he just gave in after I annoyed him too much." Fu smirked.
Yeah that fit too.
He casually lowered them down from the sky, "It's good to see you again…well in person at least." he said as they touched down.
Fu didn't bother to unwrap herself from him at all.
And he wasn't exactly in any hurry for her to anyway.
"Yeah, really!" she grinned widely, "I missed you Daiki, even if we did talk every day!"
"I missed you too," Daiki replied, "I'll figure out a way to see you more often after the chunin exams."
"Didn't you say you might end up being the Hokage soon though?" the mint haired girl replied, cocking her head, "Like I see how busy Shibuki is constantly and he's only the leader of Waterfall, which is tiny compared to Konoha right? You'll be swamped constantly and have like zero free time."
"Hell no!" Daiki refuted instantly and resolutely, offended by the very thought, "I wouldn't have accepted the offer if I didn't have a way around that. I'll just get some useful secretaries to help me and have clones do all my work. Unless there's something important that requires me to be there, I'm spending as little time in that damn office as possible."
"Really!?" she perked up, before laughing happily, legs kicking out behind his back, "I knew it. I kept telling Shibuki to do that but he wouldn't do it the fuddy duddy! Always going on about responsibilities and blah blah. I almost thought you'd have to do the same, but I'm glad to see Daiki is Daiki as expected!"
"I am Daiki indeed," he smirked, puffing his chest out, "Anyway, I actually have something I want to show you. I've been holding off telling you all about it because I wanted to show you in person."
She cocked her head to the side, "Oh?" she asked interested, grinning back, "Is it your dick?"
"No it's not my dick!" he sputtered, "Why did you even think of that?"
"I mean you showed it off a ton to me last time you were here, and you kept telling me about all these girls and you were always excited about that." she pointed out with flawless logic.
"For one, my clothes got destroyed last time I was here and I didn't mean to do that, and secondly you kept pestering me about what I was up to twenty four seven so I just told you what I was up to like you asked," he refuted, "So no, it's not my dick."
"Aww!" she pouted, "I even bought a camera in advance since I didn't have one last time to take that picture."
…This girl.
"Never change Fu." he shook his head.
"Don't plan too!" she just grinned wider.
He laughed, "So yeah, no, it's not my dick, it's this." he said, and reached deep inside while he stared into her sparkling orange eyes.
And a split moment later, a familiar sizzling red chakra cloak with three wiggling shrimp like tails shimmered into existence around his form, enveloping both him and the girl in his arms.
Her eyes abruptly widened in shock, awe, disbelief, confusion and a whole slew of emotions that ran through her features so quickly even he had trouble deciphering them all.
"Daiki…you're a Jinchuuriki as well?" her jaw dropped.
"Yup," he smirked widely, moving his three massive shrimp like energy tails up above their heads and wiggling them, "I won't go a lot into the specifics. I just came across some assholes who had planned to use the Sanbi to attack Konoha, and ended up sealing him inside myself to stop them. We're pretty good friends now actually, which is why I can use his chakra so easily."
Fu stared at him for a few seconds blankly, before erupting into giggles, "Daiki you're so crazy!" she burst out, "I can't believe you went ahead and made yourself a Jinchuuriki!"
He shrugged with a snort, "Why not? I mean I know you had a rough time of it, and most do, but well, you know I don't really give a shit about what people think right?" he pointed out, "And Jinchuuriki are just flat out superior to normal ninja. Jinchuuriki are the best."
She raised a minty green brow, "We're the best?"
"Yup," he smirked, "We're the god damn best. You're awesome Fu, and so am I. The Sanbi is awesome, and so is the Nanabi. Say it with me, Jinchuuriki are the best."
"Jinchuuriki are the best." she giggled and repeated.
"Damn right!" he took one hand off of her waist and pumped it in the air, "If anyone ever says anything to you about being a Jinchuuriki, insulting you with demon nonsense that or hell spawn this. Just call them a jealous scrub and tell them to shut the fuck up, cuz you're a superior awesome Jinchuuriki."
Fu's giggles turned into outright hilarity and laughter, "You're so insane Daiki I love it!"
It took almost a minute for her to calm down, "But yeah, you've got nothing to ever be ashamed about being a Jinchuuriki Fu." he assured her just in case.
"Mmm." she smiled back.
"Speaking of though," Daiki continued on, letting the chakra cloak fall apart and sizzle away into nothingness, "My bijuu actually wants to speak to yours, if you're up for it."
Orange eyes blinked back at him, "Erm, sure? But, how would that even work?" she asked.
"Oh, you're gonna love it, since if the Nanabi is up for it, we'll be able to meet up technically in person whenever we want'" Daiki said and reached up with his free hand to pry one of her arms from around his neck and interlock her fingers with hers, holding her hand. He drew upon Isobu's chakra and let it flow into her from their interlocked fingers. 'Is this enough?' he asked internally.
'This will do yes, give me one second.' Isobu replied.
And just a split moment later, his vision wavered, darkness washing over him, before being enveloped in a warm orange light.
