Yugito smiled as she leaned over and gave him a kiss on the cheek, right on top of his whisker marks, making it feel like he was on fire. When Yugito moved away Naruto saw the smirk on her face and knew she was aware of what that did to him. How she knew that particular bit of information he did not know, but he secretly vowed to get her back somehow on their next date.
As he left the apartment he was unaware of Kyuubi watching what his date like a movie. 'Some of those moves she put over him were pretty good.'
She did not want to admit it but that cat woman was pretty decent at seduction techniques, even if she was being… gentler with Naruto so as not to push him away.
'Maybe I could do something like that to get him to listen to me more,' she thought about that for a second before deciding it wouldn't work. 'If I did that he would realize what I was doing, and I still don't know how this seal works so I have no clue if he can restrict my powers or not. Best not risk it…'
What she did not admit, even to herself, was that the thought of doing something that may make Naruto lose what little trust he had in her left her feeling sick to her stomach.
(The Next Day)
"299… 300 *Pant*… *Pant*." Naruto dropped onto the ground as he finished his physical training. With his demonic ability to regenerate any damage done he had taken to increasing his weights every time he trained, pushing his body far harder than he had before. Naruto grunted as he lifted himself into a sitting position and dropped the weight. He leaned back on his hands as he took a quick breather.
'Time to get back to work Naruto,' Kyuubi commented, smirking as she watched the blond work up a sweat.
Naruto grunted in acknowledgement as he stood up on somewhat wobbly legs, 'Am I going to be working on the youki whip?'
'No, you've actually got a fairly good grasp on it. It's not perfect, but you can continue working on it later. It's time to work on the next technique I want you to have. It's called Kitsune-bi (Fox Fire), it's a powerful flame I created that, at its strongest it can match those of Amaterasu. And before you ask, yes, it is the one I made around your hands when you fought Gaara. To start, I want you to build a fire since it's easier manipulate then it is to create.'
Naruto did as asked, making a small fire pit and creating a fire with a basic Katon jutsu. 'Ok, so what now?'
'Now I want you to send youki to your chest and mouth as you inhale. And then when you exhale, send all of your youki towards your mouth and into the flame.'
Naruto did as instructed, channeling his youki into his chest and mouth. When he felt he had a decent amount he exhaled, sending the youki into the flame. Naruto watched with an odd fascination as the flames went from red and orange, to ghostly blue and dark blue.
"YATTA!" Naruto shouted as he jumped into the air, "I got it!"
'No you didn't,' Kyuubi decided to burst his bubble. 'You managed to increase the flames strength however that's all you did. First you need to maintain the flame, and then you need to increase its power. Remember I said at its hottest my flames could compete with the black flames of Amaterasu, when you manage to master the Kitsune-bi the color of your flames will be white, the anti-thesis of the black flames. Now, try again and this time, maintain the fire.'
Naruto blinked before his shoulders slumped, 'Fine…'
'You don't sound very enthusiastic Naruto. Should I take that as a sign you don't want to learn?'
Naruto's eyes widened, 'N-no! I do!' The techniques he was learning were far too good for him to pass up, no matter who he learned them from.
Kyuubi snickered a bit, kami it was so fun to rile the blond up sometimes, 'Alright then, get to work.'
For the next week this was his focus. He would do his morning workout, then he would work on the Kitsune-bi, afterwards he would work on the Youki whip some more, then cool down with his afternoon workout. His training had eventually started to become so intense that Naruto was forced to keep a Kage Bunshin on hand so it could drag him back to the apartment, since on most cases, Naruto was simply too tired to move, or had already lost consciousness.
