"Faster, faster. You're still slow."
"If this is all you've got, you'll never get stronger."
"Your hand movement is wrong again. It needs to be a little lower."
"Raise your elbow."
"Bend your leg a little more forward."
Naruto continues to train Sasuke with the sword. They are now at the back of the mountain. Sasuke doesn't want any disturbance during his training.
Sasuke is full of sweat as he keeps swinging his sword, but he is still expressionless.
After another 10 minutes, Naruto tells him to stop. They sit together and drink water.
"Naruto, Kakashi wants me to go on a special training trip with him," Sasuke said casually.
Naruto finishes the bottle of water and replies, "Good, do that. He is your Sensei, and both of you have the same chakra affinity."
Sasuke nods his head in agreement. He also has the same idea as Naruto. He still has a problem with the seal, but he didn't tell Naruto as he didn't want to burden him with his problems.
Naruto stands up and asks, "When will you go?"
"Today."
Naruto nods and says, "Get stronger."
Sasuke also stands up and nods. Naruto smiles and says goodbye to him and disappears from there.
Sasuke looks at the empty place and smiles a little. He also left the area. He needs to get ready and prepare for the training.
::::::::::::::::::::::
At Hokage mountain, Kurenai is seated on the mountain's head and looking down at the village. No one knows what she is thinking.
Suddenly Naruto appears behind her. She already noticed him. Without turning, Kurenai asks, "What happened? Did you finish your training?"
Naruto walks beside her and nods his head. He looks at Kurenai and asks, "What happened, Sensei? Are you sad?"
Kurenai forces a smile, shakes her head, and says, "No, I am fine. Just a little headache."
Naruto smiles and says, "Let me help you then. I am a good doctor and also a masua."
Kurenai shakes her head and says, "It's fine. I can handle it."
Naruto shakes his head and stands behind her. He starts to massage her head and says, "Just relax and let your students help you."
Kurenai sighs but doesn't stop Naruto anymore. Naruto smiles and massages her head and neck. Kurenai also starts to feel relaxed as she is close to Naruto, and his calming aura is now very powerful.
Kurenai closes her eyes and enjoys the feeling.
After 10 minutes, Naruto asks, "Are you worrying about Asuma Sensei?"
Kurenai opens her eyes, feeling complicated. She can't believe even her students notice this.
Naruto continues to massage her and says, "Don't worry, those rumors might be wrong. How can Hokage's son do that?"
Kurenai didn't say anything. She is a ninja. She won't care about some rumors. But when she investigates it, it turns out to be true.
Kurenai shakes her head and says, "Don't worry. I am not thinking about him."
Naruto rolls his eyes and says, "Then why are you sad? Just go and directly talk to him. Sitting here won't do anything."
Kurenai turns and looks at Naruto weirdly. "What do you know, brat?"
Naruto acts hurt and says, "I am not a kid. Didn't you notice I was taking advantage of you during the massage?"
Kurenai's eyes widen, and then her face darkens as she says, "I thought that was unintentional."
Naruto grins and runs as he says, "Don't be sad. If Asuma is not good, I will chase him away and take you for me."
Kurenai feels speechless, but the next second, she laughs and says, "You brat, I need to teach you a lesson next time."
She looks at the village, thinks of something, and decides to do as Naruto said.
They are not young anymore, so she should come clean about everything.
:::::::::::::::::::
"Yo, pervy Senin, are you peeking in the girl's bath again?" Naruto asks as he looks at the white-haired Senin, Jiraiya.
Jiraiya blinks at Naruto and nods proudly. Both of them have a tacit understanding, and Jiraiya makes space for him. Naruto, without saying anything, joins him as if it's natural.
Jiraiya was proud and sad when he finds out about Naruto's genius. Everything he throws at him, he learns instantly.
He was almost shocked and choked to death when Naruto succeeded to use the Rasengan on the first try.
So reluctantly, he admitted defeat. They then stop learning and teaching and start researching together.
"Naruto!!!!!!" Without looking back, Jiraiya and Naruto run together.
"Damn you, kid. Why does that pink speaker always come when you are here?"
"How would I know?"
*cough* *cough* "Do you want to learn a new Jutsu?" Jiraiya asks.
Naruto shakes his head and says, "No, Jutsus are boring. They are flashy but not useful enough. You need hand signs, and also time to make a Jutsu, even after that, it's unknown whether it will work or not."
Jiraiya nods his head in agreement. The reason why Rasengan is powerful is that it doesn't need any hand signs. But it is still slow. Your enemy is not going to wait for you to make a sign.
This is also why Bloodline limits are more powerful and sought out by every village.
But Jiraiya smiles and says, "I will teach you a different Jutsu this time. It's a summoning Jutsu."
Naruto shakes his head and says, "I already have a summon."
Jiraiya's eyes widen and he asks, "How? Who gave you the contract?"
Naruto grinned and said, "Not gonna tell ya."
He remembers the memories of how Tsunade robbed him of his wine just for the contract and felt embarrassed.
"Okay tell me what type of summon you made a contract with?" Juriya asks curiously as he will surely know about it. And if the summon is not good then he will tell him about the awesomeness of toads.
Naruto sneers and replies "Do you think I am stupid?" Juriya feels embarrassed and laughs.
They continue to play tit for tat a few more minutes and go on their way.
::::::::::::::
Naruto goes to the Hyuga house and sees Hanabi sitting on the floor and looking at the birds flying with her hand on her cheek as if she is thinking about something.
He looks at her and smiles. Naruto appears behind her and pokes her soft cheek.
"Ahh!!"
"Handsome brother??? You almost scared me." Hanabi complains as she takes a breath.
Naruto smiles and asks "What were you thinking that you didn't even notice me coming?"
Hanabi looks at Naruto And asks "Brother, is it wrong to have these eyes?"
Naruto looks confused and asks "Why would you think that?"
"One of our elders gets attacked and his eyes are stolen by the attacker," Hanabi replies sadly.
Naruto pats her head and answers "No, it's not wrong to have those eyes. It's a blessing. People are just jealous of your clan's gift."
He bent his knees looked into her eyes and continued "So, you have to get stronger so that when bad guys come for your treasure, you can show them who they are messing with."
Hanabi nods innocently and says "Yes, I will become stronger and protect my big sister and you too."
Naruto suddenly grins and says "What about your father?"
"He can protect himself."
Not far away a white-eyed middle-aged man felt his heart break like glass as he heard his little daughter. He looks at Naruto as if he is his mortal enemy.
Naruto already sensed the old man. He chuckles and asks "How is your sister's health?"
Hanabi smiles and replies "She is fine now. She can train from tomorrow." Hanabi then takes Naruto to Hinata.
:::::::::::::::::::
"Hey, blonde. Let's go. I need you to get stronger so that you can beat the pinky." Naruto says as he grabs Ino's hand.
"Who are you calling blonde?" Ino screams.
