"Well then, I'll go now, Jii-chan and Perverted Sage!" Naruto said his goodbye as he left the office.
Hiruzen and Jiraiya nodded but then Jiraiya realized what Naruto called him and scolded "Although, you're not wrong but don't call me that in public! Naruto!"
Hiruzen and Anko's eyes twitched as they thought 'You also think that so why not let him call you that?'
Naruto simply chuckled and applied chakra in his feet to the training field, where he fought Kakashi with Sasuke and Sakura. He told Haku to go there first and he'll follow
Third Training Ground…
"Sorry I'm late! Haku!" Naruto smiled as he suddenly arrived.
Haku shook her head and replied "It's fine. I didn't wait long."
Naruto then said "Alright! Let's begin. Let's test your chakra control. Can you walk on water no problem?"
Haku nodded and with a seal, she walked into a nearby pond "See?"
Naruto also nodded, stretching his palms and using [Rasengan] "How about this? Can you do this?"
Haku walked over to observe the [Rasengan] and said "This is… compressed chakra that's rotated at high speed?"
Naruto chuckled and was glad that Haku was quick witted. "That's right. Do you think you can do this?"
Haku shook her head "No… I think I can compress chakra in my palm but not to this level of density. Even if I could, I wouldn't be able to control it and it'll explode in my palm."
"It's fine. I'll help you out." Naruto said as he dispersed the [Rasengan] and explained as he stretched out his hand "Hold my hand."
Haku simply nodded in reply and asked in curiosity "Why are you holding my hand?"
Naruto smiled and injected 'Wind Sage Chakra' into Haku's body. It didn't enter her body but shrouded it. Just like how the 'Wind Sage Chakra' protected Naruto earlier. He did the same to Haku, in case of some deadly strike approaching her or [Rasengan] exploding in her hand.
Naruto let go of her hand and explained "I surrounded you with my 'Wind Sage Chakra.' Now even if the [Rasengan] explodes, you'll be fine."
Haku tried to feel the chakra all over her body and frowned "Really? I don't feel anything."
Naruto chuckled and replied, "That's for sure, you can't sense 'Natural Energy' yet."
(A/N: Just in case someone is confused, I term it 'Natural Energy' if it's raw, uncontrolled energy and 'Wind Sage Chakra' if it's part of Naruto's Chakra or controlled by him.)
Haku pouted and asked to clear her confusion "I'm sure this training is for better chakra control right? Is 'Natural Energy' that difficult to control?"
Naruto nodded and replied "That's right. To give an example… Tree walking is Level 1, Water walking is Level 2, Rasengan is Level 5, and 'Natural Energy' of the toads is Level 10. As for 'Natural Energy' of Water Element, it's Level 20, and for 'Natural Energy' of the Wind Element, it's Level 50."
Haku looked at Naruto in shock as she didn't imagine that it would be that difficult.
Naruto smirked as he looked at Haku's shock and continued "Not to mention, you want to mix 'Natural Energy' of the Water and Wind Element. I'm sure it'll be a bit more difficult."
Haku who was still in shock heard Naruto and sighed in her mind 'A bit more difficult? That's an understatement.'
Haku's eyes began to shine with determination with a thought 'I have to do my best. Naruto is getting stronger and stronger, I don't want to be someone that will hold him back.'
…
"Sandaime-sama." Zabuza kneeled down in front of Hiruzen in his office.
Hiruzen sighed and waved his hand "I said you don't need to do that if no one is around."
Zabuza stood up and shook his head "I can't do that, you are the Kage of this village. Although, Naruto is doing that, I can't very well do that just because Naruto is the one who brought me inside the village."
Hiruzen sighed again and said as he took a file in one of the papers in his table "Alright, do what you want. Come forward."
Zabuza nodded and approached Hiruzen waiting for his mission.
Hiruzen nodded as he found the paper and said "Although, you're unofficially a part of Konoha with a special identity. You're still officially a part of Kiri albeit a wanted man. The mission I'm giving you is related to that."
Zabuza nodded, curious to what Hiruzen's mission is about.
Hiruzen continued to explain "This will be an S-Class Mission. Are you up for it?"
Zabuza flinched for a bit wanting to ask the details of the mission first before taking it.
Hiruzen chuckled noticing Zabuza's reaction and explained "Currently, a group of Kiri Ninjas is preparing to stage a coup. The leader is led by Terumi Mei."
Zabuza knew that he was a ninja, and a tool at the same time but Naruto gave him a reason to not go by this belief, if he could live he would want to be able to choose his way of life so he asked solemnly. "Do I need to kill Mei?"
Hiruzen shook his head and continued "No, I want you to support the coup."
Zabuza was in disbelief "You want me to support the coup?"
Hiruzen nodded and replied as he smiled "That's right. Although there's no eternal peace, I would like to continue peace in my era. Currently, the mist is too bloody, no signs of being able to do a proper treaty between villages. The coup is about overthrowing a tyrant who only knows how to kill is also in my favor. I want a real peace treaty between Konoha and Kiri."
Zabuza shook his disbelief and nodded with a determined gaze "I'll do it."
Hiruzen chuckled and nodded as well "Of course, I won't send you there alone. I'll send you with a few of my personal Anbu members. I'll give you 200,000,000 Ryo, I'm sure the coup is lacking in funds. Send me a monthly report to monitor the situation if there's anything you need."
Zabuza nodded and replied "Yes. Thank you, Sandaime-sama."
Hiruzen nodded and said "You're dismissed. Come here tomorrow at 5 am. I'll arrange for your team to leave early in the morning."
…
"Huff… huff… huff…" Sasuke breathed heavily as he maintained the [Lightning Chakra Armor]. Although, there were no longer any injuries affecting his body, it's draining unimaginable stamina and is close to ripping his muscles again. His body is simply too weak!
Clap! Clap! Clap!
"I don't know how you thought of this but it's an ingenious idea. It's similar to the Raikage's [Lightning Chakra Mode]." Kakashi commented on Sasuke's jutsu creation.
Sasuke shook his head and said "No… It's not enough. I'm sure, Naruto's becoming stronger as we speak."
Kakashi sighed as he thought of Naruto and replied "That's for sure. Naruto's a genius."
Sasuke snorted and with a determined gaze "I won't be left behind! I'll become stronger than Naruto!"
Kakashi again sighed but in his thoughts 'You guys are already stronger than most Jounins so can't you just take it slow?'
He knew it wouldn't have any effect as these two students of his were obsessed with strength so he didn't speak of it to either of them. He could just watch as they get stronger at incredible speed.
Sasuke asked "Kakashi. I thought of a jutsu. Can you help me out?"
Kakashi, surprised, thought 'I never thought Sasuke could ask for help. I guess it's due to Naruto's influence.' but replied "Sure."
…
"Phew!" Sakura wiped her sweat as she finished writing another seal.
'[Isolated Explosive Tag] set to 10 seconds if activated by chakra. After it hits the target it will trap the target and explode from inside. No escape!'
"I can't be left behind! I have to get stronger in different ways if I'm not strong in a particular way! Just like Naruto taught me! I'll invent a seal, different from everything I've learned!" Sakura talked to herself and continued studying seals.
…
1 day later…
"Huff… huff… Naruto… I can't do it anymore… Ahnnn!"
(A/N: hehe~ Author messing around so... sorry? yeah, I'm not sorry.)
Boom!
The [Rasengan] in her palm exploded but was deflected by Naruto's 'Wind Sage Chakra' so she was fine.
Naruto's eyes twitched as he thought 'Are you trying to seduce me, woman?!' but coughed and said "That's great, at least you can maintain it for a few minutes. You have to at least be able to maintain it for an hour."
Haku clenched her fist and nodded
"It's afternoon. Do you want to eat first?"
Growl!
Haku's stomached growled like she hasn't eaten for days so she blushed in embarrassment while Naruto chuckled and said "Let's go eat! I know a good ramen place. Do you eat ramen?"
Haku replied bashfully "Yes…"
"Alright, Let's go." Naruto said stretching his arm to help Haku up.
Haku smiled and took his hand.
