It took Naruto several seconds to realize she was trying to make a joke, and when he did the blond decided that since she seemed to be trying to get along that he would also extend an olive branch. He gave her a small tentative smile, which made Kyuubi give an internal sigh of relief before she continued her explanation.
"As far as other abilities, I'm not one hundred percent sure. As I said, this has not happened for a long time. Aside from that, you are the first and likely only human to ever become a Hanyou from a Bijuu. I would hazard a guess that you will be able to use at least some of the techniques I have created over the years."
"You created your own jutsu?" asked Naruto, despite the revelations, emotions and mental exhaustion they had given him, he could not help but feel a small bit of excitement at the prospect of using jutsu created by the Kyuubi No Kitsune.
Kyuubi hummed as she tapped a finger against her chin in a thinking pose that made her surprisingly cute, "I suppose you could call them that. However none of these actually require hand signs, instead they are pure manipulation of either an element, or youki. And you may not be able to use all of them, since your youki is not as potent as mine."
"Youki? You mean I have youki?" asked Naruto.
"Of course, you're a Hanyou now so your chakra was actually replaced with youki," Kyuubi frowned for a moment. "Technically you can consider it half youki. When my youki mixed with your chakra it melded with it, turning you into a Hanyou. That's partly why your physical abilities are so much better now. Because youki is many times more potent than chakra, your coils constantly have a set amount flowing through you no matter what you do. This means that youki is moving through all the various parts of your body, enhancing them. This is actually going to be useful to your physical training since it means that your muscles will never atrophy from disuse."
"So basically I could stop exercising right now and remain at the same level of physical performance?" asked Naruto.
Kyuubi nodded, "Yes. And if you continue to get stronger, your muscles and bones and anything else that get strained, torn or broken will becoming twice as strong."
Naruto nodded as he thought about what that would mean. Since his body would no longer atrophy he would not need to wear his weights all the time unless training, in fact in may prove to be more beneficial than if he were to keep his weights and resistance seals on, since they would not be needed to keep his muscles from deteriorating.
"So does this mean my youki will be harder to control?" asked Naruto as he decided to get back on track.
Kyuubi gave Naruto a grin as she shook her head. "On the contrary, because your coils expanded and your youki flows much more smoothly than your chakra did, it will be easier to control. Your only real issue will be some of the less powerful human techniques. Because youki is many times more potent and chaotic, you will need to use nearly three times less youki than you did chakra. But I know several advanced exercises that I created to help you control your youki."
Naruto nodded as he gave Kyuubi a smile, "So does this mean you're going to help me with my training?"
Kyuubi smirked, "I suppose I could, but you'll have to listen to everything I say when I say. And if you fail to do so, I'll cut off the circulation to one of your limbs, and trust me, you won't like the one I pick."
Naruto frowned but before he could respond to that threat a new voice interrupted him.
"…to…Na…ruto!"
"What the hell!" asked Naruto.
"Oh, sounds like someone's calling you from the outside world," Kyuubi commented.
Naruto frowned, "Then I guess I have to go." He looked over at Kyuubi. "I'll see you later I guess."
"Actually if you want you want to talk to me, just think what you're going to say and I'll be able to hear and answer you," Kyuubi said, getting a nod from Naruto as he faded out of the seal.
Kyuubi stared at the spot Naruto had been sitting, thinking hard on what had just happened. The conversation had turned out to be nothing like what she had expected; the way Naruto had surprised her when he slammed her into the wall, and again when he had called upon that power. While his youki was nowhere near as strong as I am at full power it was still far more powerful than I had expected.
She was unsure what to make of it; the power he had unleashed was both unexpected and unwelcome. Mainly because she did not know what it meant. That energy had just seemed burst out of him in an uncontrolled manner.
If anything it seemed like a hidden well of energy, she thought to herself, this new development bears further investigation…
"Naruto! Wake up Naruto!" Sakura yelled as she shook the blond viciously. Sasuke and the ANBU who had come to get them sweat dropped at how violent the girl was acting.
"NN…ugh." Naruto blinked his eyes open to see Sakura over him, "What the hell do you want? Can't you see I'm trying to sleep…"
Sakura huffed, "Hokage-sama wants to see us! So get off your lazy ass and c'mon!"
"Fine…" Naruto yawned as he got out of bed. As soon as he did he heard a squeak and turned to see a red-faced Sakura.
"P-put some clothes on baka!" She shouted as she turned around and attempted to hold in her nosebleed.
Naruto grinned, "You know, you may want to keep any fantasies with me in them out of your head Sakura-chaaan. After all, what would Sasuke-kun think if you started falling for another man."
"S-Shut up!" Sakura squeaked as Naruto laughed and put on a pair of pants and his cloak.
"*Sigh* Looks like I'm going to need a change of pants too, these no longer fit either." Naruto shrugged the thought off for now. He looked over at the ANBU who was standing in the doorway, he had the distinct impression the person was staring at him, "Lead the way ANBU-san."
This seemed to snap the ANBU out of his/her stupor. "Right, follow me," A distinctly female voice said.
The members of team seven all stood up and followed the ANBU out of the room.
Sarutobi looked at the door as it opened and the members of Team Seven walked in. he immediately put a smile on his face, pleased to see that they seemed relatively unharmed, "Naruto-kun, Sasuke-kun, Sakura-chan, it is good to see you three. I trust you are doing well…?" He looked at Naruto in surprise. "Naruto! What happened to you?"
"Why does everyone always ask me that?" Naruto said in an annoyed tone, "First Sasuke-teme, then Iruka-sensei and now you!"
"Well, it's just that you look so different," Sarutobi defended himself.
"Didn't Iruka-sensei tell you about my changes?"
Sarutobi shook his head, "I believe he was more concerned by the fact that three genin went up against an S-rank criminal."
"Whatever it's cool," Naruto shrugged. "As for the changes I honestly don't know. One minute I'm up against that pedo-hebi-teme, and the next I'm like this. Not that I'm complaining because I gotta admit, I'm really liking this new look! Anyways, I guess you called us to talk about your pedophile of a student?"
Sarutobi chuckled as his surrogate grandson nonchalant attitude, though he was a tad worried. "I suppose if you don't know we'll just as to see if we can figure out what happened later. However, as you seemed to have guessed I called you hear to discuss what I heard from Iruka as well as Anko in the Forest of Death."
"Anko faced Orochimaru!" Naruto said in shock, "Is she ok! Orochimaru didn't hurt her did he? Where is-"
"Calm down Naruto-kun," Sarutobi said, watching as the blond took several deep breaths. "Anko is perfectly fine. She had a few minor injuries but nothing serious. It seems Orochimaru does not want to start any trouble…yet."
