Standing outside Naruto’s favourite ramen bar Sakura, Naruto and Kakashi sat down on the bench outside. They sat for a few moments in silence before Sakura demanded. "Naruto tell us what you have been doing all this time. Sauske and I have been worried. Everyone who knows you was worried actually. We couldn’t contact you or anything, there was no way of knowing you were alive or dead."
Startled Naruto looked up. 'Everyone was worried about me. Well that’s good to hear, but now I feel rotten.' He thought as he waited for his ramen. Then turning he replied to Sakura.
"Sorry Sakura that was Jiraiya's fault. He said if I was to be mastering high levels jutsus, then I didn't need the distractions of other peoples worries added to my own. He said it was best to not be found." Turning expecting Sakura to begin to rant Naruto was surprised at the quietness of her demeanour. She sat staring at him like she had something important to say, but then she would turn away and shake her head.
"Well he is a hermit.....but still Sauske and I were scared something happened to you. I mean you didn't leave exactly on a good note." And now Naruto was certain that something was bothering Sakura. Her voice was tired and she sounded sorrowful, as though she longed for something that eluded her, taunting her just out of her reach.. ‘She sounds so sad.' thought Naruto as prepared to answer her.
"Oh. Yeah that’s true." Naruto replied and to Sakura it seemed that his face darkened with the memory of something. But it passed and was once again replaced by the regular Naruto. Kakashi who sensed that unwanted tension was building quickly changed the subject.
“ So Naruto what sort of training did you do while with Jiraiya-sama?” Inquired Kakashi who had remained totally silent the entire time the two spoke that Naruto had completely forgot that he was there.
Thinking for a moment about the question Naruto did a mental inventory of all the new jutsu and training he had gone through. “Well lets see, I mastered tons of high level jutsus and managed to improve all of the fourth’s old jutsus. I also had to go through a death course that was ment to hone my senses to perfection. This was the same typwe of training the forth went through.” Naruto replied. When Naruto got to the part about himself improving all the fourth’s old jutsu, Sakura burst out laughing.
“Hahahahahaha Naruto that’s a good one. Really I can’t believe that a genius like the fourth would have jutsus that you could modify...but if you say you did there’s nothing that I can do to prove otherwise.” She laughed as she looked at Naruto.
Naruto who looked downcast at this remark was about to say something, when Kakashi spoke up. "Sakura the resengan that Naruto uses...the one that adds wind manipulated chakra to the original form to create a swirling suriken of chakra. That was the Fourth's original jutsu too. He improved that one, in a way that the fourth tried to and failed to do." 'Thank you Kakashi.' Naruto though as Sakura's laughter died away instantly. Then turning Naruto spoke to Kakashi.
"Oh Kakashi that reminds me. I perfected the resengan even furthered. I can now add all five elements to it before its created, and I can also decided on the size and concentration of the suriken." Seeing the stunned look on Kakashi's face Naruto continued. "It was probably the hardest thing I have ever done.....well maybe not the hardest." Naruto said chuckling to himself.
Then turning to face Sakura, Naruto spoke once more. “Sakura I’m sorry for endangering you all those times with the Kyubi…but he will never harm anyone ever again so its alright now."
Startled by the suddenness of the change of topic, Sakura only managed a small reply. “What??? What do you mean by that Naruto? What do you mean it will never harm anyone ever again??” She questioned. Looking to the side Sakura could see Kakashi had too grown still and was anticipating Naruto's reply.
“I sealed him away for good. He will never be able to bother anyone ever again.” Naruto replied as he kicked a stone with his foot. It went sailing over the house nearest to them.
Jumping to her feet Sakura shouted. “REALLY!!!!! Naruto that’s fantastic!!!!”
Kakashi who kept better control over himself simply spoke out happily. "Really? Naruto that’s a good thing to hear I was worried it might have been the Kyubi that inflicted those wounds on Jiraiya-sama.”
“OH Kakashi-sensi I forgot." Naruto said jovially. Then a dopey look crossed over his face and Kakashi got the first glimpse of his former student. But then again he was puzzled at Narutos sudden change in demeanour. Kakashi continued to stare in wonder as Naruto began rummaging around in his ninja pouch. Then retrieving what he was after Narutos hand returned holding the latest instalment of Kakashi's favourite series. "I never liked reding these but Jiraiya said that "Come Come Anger" was a great success but I think you like this one even better than the last." Naruto said as he handed over the latest instalment. Kakashi looking down, read the title '''Come Come Love'''. Naruto knew that Kakashi would want to read it right away, but he still had things to say to the both of them. “Sorry Kakashi but your reading will have to wait.......and yeah it is great to hear that isn’t it."
Turing Naruto looked down at his watch. 'Oh it's almost time.' he though as he watched the minute hand slowly tick towards the seven numeral.
“That reminds me I have to visit the family estate soon.” Naruto said more to himself then to the others. But Sakura’s ears picked it up.
“ Family estate? What do you mean by that Naruto?” Questioned Sakura. "Naruto you don’t have a family."
Smiling Naruto replied sarcastically.“Well Sakura, that genius you were referring to earlier Arashi Kazama......he’s my father.” Naruto spoke the words solemnly. It was not a boast or a joke. He spoke them with nothing but the look of truth.
Shocked Sakura shouted out. “WHAT?!!! The fourth was your father??? No way that’s true. The Yodamine couldn’t’t be your Father....You don’t share the last name as him, and it was said that the Fourth took a child at random from its dead mother, and sealed the Kyubi into it. Thus you are said to be the Fourth’s legacy. He sealed the Kyubi into you for the sole sake of saving the village. And by doing so gave his life up.”
"Yeah but that remains the question who was my father. He suposedly didn't know I was his own son until the moment he was holding me in his arms, He sealed the Kyubi into me, knowing I was his son. From that point on I was hated and despised by the villagers, but he never intended it to be that way. He wanted me to be hailed as a hero. He even named me before he sealed the Kyubi into me. He gave me the name Uzumaki Naruto. And Kakashi, you should know the truth about the Fourth's name. After all he was your jounin teacher, and leader in the three man teams."
“Yes the Yodamine's true name was Minato Naimkaze, but he changed it to Kazama Arashi when he was young. Later after he became hokage he married one Kushina Uzumaki. But the fact that he named you Naruto Uzumaki.....would mean that the Yodamine.....was indeed your father...........when did you find this out Naruto?!!” Kakashi spluttered as he dropped his new book. Cursing he bent to retrieve it. 'Thinking about it I always wondered why you shared the last name as the Fourth's wife,' he thought as he looked at Naruto. There was an unmistakable resemblance to the forth in him. His hair even his face looked like his old mentor’s.
“To answer the question as to when I learned he was my father. It was half a day ago. I’m just as surprised as you are, and what’s worse is Jiraiya-sama and Tsunade-sama have known all along and never intended to tell me. But it's ok, I can now start to understand who I truly am.” replied Naruto as he watched the sypathetic and understanding looks on Sakura’s and Kakashi’s faces.
Then looking at his watch once more Naruto realized that he was suppose to meet Jiraiya in a few minutes. "Shit I have to go meet Jiraiya in three minutes. I'm sorry we didn't even have a chance to eat ramen. We got lost in the conversation. Naruto said as he motioned to the steaming bowl of ramen sitting in front of himself. “Maybe next time though. I’ll come and meet you guys after I visit the house.....OH and don’t tell anyone about me being the fourth’s kid alright. Later.” Naruto said as he tossed enough money on the table for the three bowls or ramen. Then he closed his eyes and seemed to disappear. Naruto was gone in a instant on his way to meet Jiraiya so they could head to the family estate.
Sakura staring at the spot Naruto just was, shouted out in alarm as he seemed to disappear without a trace. Turning wide eyed to Kakashi she asked. “Kakashi what did Naruto do??”
“That was….It couldn’t’t have been it was to fast to be the fourth’s…” Kakashi spluttered as he once again dropped his book in surprise at Narutos sudden and interesting new way of travel.
“What? What do you mean? What couldn’t’t have been the fourth’s?" Sakura asked a little confused.
“Sakura that was the fourths jutsu…the body flicker. He called it the lightning gods movement. it’s a technique that allows the user to move a super high speeds and strike an opponent as long as they have a seal attached to them somewhere. Its what got him the nickname the Konoha Yellow Flash. But Naruto's was four times faster than the fourth’s ever was. And he didn't need a seal from what i saw there.” Kakashi explained as he once again reached down to retrieve his book from the ground.
“What four times faster!!!!!” Sakura shouted as she toppled over the back of the bench. Then getting back to here feet she began to mutter to herself.
Sitting there dumbstruck staring at the spot Naruto had just vanished from, the only thing Kakashi could think of was. 'Naruto just how far have you come in these two years??'
Standing outside Naruto’s favourite ramen bar Sakura, Naruto and Kakashi sat down on the bench outside. They sat for a few moments in silence before Sakura demanded. "Naruto tell us what you have been doing all this time. Sauske and I have been worried. Everyone who knows you was worried actually.
