Ohayo Minna-san, how are you. I would like to thank you all for the support you have shown. I hope you enjoy my work. Constructive Criticism wouldn't be in vain. I would appreciate it if there is no flaming.

Chapter 4: Development
One Year after Naruto's Training Started - Training Ground 4 - Konoha
It had been a year ago when Shisui took him under his tutelage. He had grown only a few inches, but alas, this was not his growing age. His hair got a little longer and two crude, makeshift bangs had started to develop on either side of his face.
He wore a black shirt with an Uzumaki symbol on the back and navy blue pants. The Hokage wanted to keep his bloodlines hidden, by not having him wear the Uchiha or Senju symbol on his clothes, since miraculously, no one seemed to have noticed them.
In the ground, we could see that there was rubble near the rocky hills and a new earth hill with a waterfall had been formed. The mini-forests had many burnt trees and a great number was cut in half, but still the quantity of trees did the fertile Land of Fire justice.
We could see two figures at the clearing in the center of the ground. "You never cease to amaze me Naruto; you progressed with your Elemental Manipulation of all five elements to the third of the five total levels, and also have mastery of up till B-rank Jutsu in each one. Your physical skills can give any fresh Chunin a run for his money, though you might not win every time due to being a little too young" praised Shisui.
"It's not enough, I have a long way to go before I can even think of calling myself to be of a temporarily acceptable level" replied Naruto. If anything had happened to Naruto during the year, it was that he got a lot more mature. He didn't blindly trust anymore, especially not after what had happened a few days ago.
Flashback - October 10th
Naruto was casually walking down the street, wondering what he should do for his special day when suddenly he heard a shout, "Get the Demon."
'Ugh, not again' thought Naruto as he quickly left in a Shunshin (Body Flicker), he was the first and only student of Shunshin no Shisui (Shisui the Teleporter) after all, how could he not learn the Jutsu.
Appearing in front of the Ichiraku Ramen Stand, he decided to have some food. He entered, received Birthday Wishes, got free ramen and left with a good mood and a satisfied stomach.
'This day couldn't be any better' was the thought of one Uzumaki Naruto. Almost instantly, he overheard the Uchiha Clan Head, who had been very kind to him for the entire year.
Flashback within a Flashback - Two Months after Naruto's Training Began
Uchiha Fugaku, the Uchiha Clan Head had called for Shisui and Uzumaki Naruto, belived to be Shisui's student, to come to his office.
"You called Fugaku-sama" said Shisui upon entering the office.
"Yes Shisui, the reason being that it is belived that you have taken up an apprentice while you ignored all possible candidates from the Uchiha Clan and settled for second-best" replied Fugaku.
"Hai Fugaku-sama, but he is not mediocre. He is the best possible student one could get and we have a tie which is forbidden for me to speak of without the Hokage's permission, an S-class secret" explained Shisui.
"I see, but I fail to see any connection between a prodigy and an average. Regardless, I would like to hear him out on what he has to say about himself" said Fugaku.
Seeing that he was being called out, Naruto replied, "Fugaku-san, I would appreciate it if you stop referring to me as mediocre, you may call me, Uzumaki Naruto." Uchiha Naruto was never one to care about names and status, he either got his point across or remained silent.
'The Jinchuriki, this is just what we need. If I play my cards right, we can have the Kyūbi working at the whim of the Uchiha' thought a power hungry Fugaku. "Don't take any offence now Naruto-kun, I was merely stating my general experience with those outside the clan. If you would like to, may I ask Shisui of your skill set" asked Fugaku to which Naruto nodded.
"He has mastered the first of the five stages of Elemental Manipulation, can use the Shunshin (Body Flicker) to an acceptable degree, able to use the Taju Kage Bunshin No Jutsu (Multi Shadow Clone Technique) and has perfect mastery over the Kawarami Jutsu (Substitution Technique). Furthermore, he has mastery over the other two Academy Ninjutsu and can form an acceptable regular Bunshin (Clone) despite his large Chakra reserves, and I expect him to be able to do so and be better in the future as of continual Chakra Control Exercises. Truly a prodigy to have mastered all this in two months' time, that too at the age of five" said Shisui proudly while he thought, 'I hope he doesn't ask which elements he has.'
By now Fugaku was mentally drooling, and said "Feel free to go about the Uchiha territory, Naruto-kun. The two of you may leave."
Flashback within a Flashback End
From that day onwards, Fugaku had been very kind to Naruto and invited him and Shisui to dinner with his family on multiple occasions. He had developed a small interest in the children of the Clan Head, Sasuke and Itachi.
Itachi more than Sasuke though. The stoic Uchiha Clan Heir, who was considered anti-social, had taken to a friendship with Naruto like a fish to water. His mother Mikoto was one of the kindest souls Naruto had met, in fact she even considered Naruto as a son, and was viewed as a mother in return.
Shaking his head clear of the past, he had overhead the Uchiha Leader saying something along the lines of 'bending the Jinchuriki to the Uchiha's will.' Such blatant betrayal made Naruto lose all respect for the man.
'Was all this just an illusion, Mikoto-oba and Itachi-nii, was it all just to fool me?' while the thought was crossing his mind, he unconsciously activated his Sharingan to reveal two tomoes in both eyes. This alone showed how depressed he was. Luckily he was in an isolated street at the time or everyone would have seen his eyes.
'NO! That was real, they weren't told of anything of Fugaku's plans. All the emotions exchanged between us were real. I had better watch my back. I'll go about as if nothing happened, after all I get to meet with Mikoto-oba that way' thought Naruto.
Flashback End
Later that day, Naruto had mastered the Shunshin. He had noticed that his Sharingan was a two tomoe and so had Shisui, who asked what happened. Being one of the people Naruto trusted, he got his reply which caused a scornful look in Shisui's eyes for the Uchiha Clan Head.
"Now then, I think it's finally time to start your Sharingan training. You must have already got the hang of using the Sharingan but even then you must be aware that you aren't even having a glimpse of its true potential" said Shisui.
"Well, other than not knowing its full abilities, I guess experience is a problem for me" replied Naruto.
"Now then, show me the level of your eyes. Activate your Sharingan" requested Shisui.
Channeling Chakra to his eyes, Naruto turned his bloodline on. Two tomoe were visible in both eyes.
'One tomoe due to the initial start. But when did he…actually yes he did face a life and death situation a year ago. He must have gotten a one two tomoe that day and the other due to his emotions on the revelation with Fugaku' thought Shisui and said, "You must have had a painful life to already have reached the two tomoe. I can do nothing about those years but I from here on out you will always have an ally, a friend and a brother in me".
"You don't have to, but I'd appreciate that" replied a jovial Naruto.
"Anyways turn off your eyes and let's sit on the benches you made last year" said Shisui walking up to the first Jutsu used by his student in front of him.
Taking a seat, Shisui began, "Now then, let me give you a basic understanding of the Sharingan. First there is the one tomoe, activated in moments of great desperation. It enables the user to predict movements and cast Genjutsu. The second tomoe, the level you're at, allows copying movement and the other two abilities get a boost. It is awakened in moments of extreme tension or a life and death situation. The third tomoe is awakened when one makes a life changing decision, one which will set out the path for him in the future. It gives a major boost to the previous abilities, this is the time when affinities are developed. This means that if you want to have an aptitude to all the abilities you have to have a habit of using them all frequently."
"Is that all, or is there another level, Shisu-sensei?" asked Naruto. Another thing, was that, just like his mother, he gave Shisui the pet name, 'Shisu'.
Chuckling, Shisui closed his eyes and channeling some Chakra, Shisui was activating his bloodline. When he opened them, instead of the normal three tomoe pattern, we could see pattern of a four-point pinwheel.
"This is it, the final level of the Sharingan. The strongest, Mangekyō Sharingan. It is awakened due to the emotions faced when one loses someone close to them and blame themselves for it, or even, kill their best friend themselves. One can do a lot with it and there are some unique abilities but there are three abilities all Mangekyō share, Tsukuyomi (Moon Reader), Amaterasu (Heavenly Illumination) and Susano'o (He with the ability to help by all means). Some may not gain either one of Tsukuyomi (Moon Reader) or Amaterasu (Heavenly Illumination) or even both but Susano'o (He with the ability to help by all means) is available to every owner of the Mangekyō. However there is a price, blindness. One loses the light in his eyes on overuse of the Mangekyō. There's a way to avoid that but I'll tell you later" Naruto cringed at the requirements.
"You must have faced a lot of pain, Sensei, to achieve this level" said Naruto.
"It's okay, I have gotten over it now. With this power I can protect those precious to me even better" replied Shisui.
"Oh really. Not when I get strong enough that you have to depend on me to watch your back every second" challenged Naruto.
"You're too young for that you smart-ass" chided Shisui and then got serious, "Since you have the Sharingan at such an early, you are to master it first and foremost. You can currently handle the mental strain of six hundred clones, you are to use a hundred for Chakra control, the Sharingan is quite Chakra taxing so it will be the best utilization of your reserves to use it with ungodly control. You will use the rest of the five hundred and have your eyes mastered within a year, I know it's too fast but I believe in you".
"Hai Shisu-sensei, with your help, I could have it down by a month with ease" replied a confident Naruto.
"I hope that your confidence isn't misplaced. Go home and rest, of course you have to leave two hundred clones for Chakra Control and send a hundred to the library" said Shisui but added as he remembered, "Hey Naruto, the Sharingan is the eye which reflects emotions. If you feel angry or vengeful, it will respond and make you stronger but will intensify those emotions. In short, I would like you to learn how to control your emotions as the Sharingan is an eye which intensifies your negative feelings and deepens your hatred." With that, he left in a Shunshin.

Uchiha Compound - Konoha
After thinking about what he should do, he thought that since it was evening so he should go home after one stop. He figured that the best choice would be Mikoto-oba, his mother's team mate. Yes, he knew about that, to be more accurate, told by none other than the Uchiha Matriarch herself. She recognized Naruto the moment he entered her line of sight, after all he had Kushina's face.
Entering the Clan Head's residence, he found it empty. He knew he was lucky and only Mikoto-oba was home and he knew just where she was.
Upon giddily entering the kitchen, hoping to surprise his foster Aunt, he found that it was empty. Turning around, dejected that the house was empty he began to leave.
Or he would have if he didn't feel two squishy melons pressed up against his back and two slender arms wrap around him in a hug.
"You wouldn't happen to have forgotten about little ol' me now would you. I feel so sad" said a voice in a mock hurt tone.
"Miko-oba!" exclaimed Naruto with renewed joy at the prospect of finding, rather being found by, his favorite person.
"Naru-kun, how have you been? Has Shisui been overworking you? Are you eating healthy? Did you forget your underwear? And what have I told you about the whole 'oba' thing?" asked Mikoto with genuine love and care for Naruto.
Happy at the concern his mother figure was showing, he ignored the bombardment of questions and one very embarrassing one, he answered the last question, "It's okay, I haven't forgotten, Kaa-chan".
Since she was his mother figure she was happy to be called one, especially since she was his godmother. "So my little Naru-kun, what has you so excited today?"
"You remember when I told you that I'm Madara's great-grandson and have the Sharingan" how could he not let her know, he could trust her with his life, "Well Shisu-Sensei is gonna start helping me with my eyes."
"That's Great Naru-kun" replied an equally excited Mikoto but seeing his face lose some of the cheerfulness she questioned, "What's wrong Naru-kun?"
"It's just that today I remembered some of the worst moments of my life, the day I killed and ascended to the next level" said Naruto, pain visible in his tearful Sharingan which was as visible as day to the Uchiha Matriarch.
"Its okay baby, no matter what happens, I'll always be by your side, supporting you every step of the way" said Mikoto in an attempt to cheer up her godson.
"Thank you…Kaa-chan" replied Naruto, feeling genuinely happy that he had someone who cares for his well being.
"You know, if you want any pointers on how to better use your eyes, you can always come to me. Believe it or not, they used to call me the most efficient user of the Sharingan seconded only by Uchiha Madara" said Mikoto.
"I knew Kaa-chan was awesome, but don't get too depressed when I say that you'll be the third best user. After all you are looking at the soon to be best user of the eyes, trumping even the likes of Madara" said a giggling Naruto.
"Oh my, such high marked dream but I'm sure that if anyone can do it, it's you" said Mikoto with confidence.
"Thanks Kaa-chan" replied Naruto.
"Well, it's getting late so you'd best be getting home now. I hope you come back to visit soon" said Mikoto.
"Hai Kaa-chan. See ya later" replied Naruto leaving in a swirl of leaves but not before placing a kiss on her forehead.
Chuckling at the mess made by the boy, Mikoto said, "That boy, what am I going to do with him. He could at least leave out the leaves", knowing full well about her son figure's mastery over the Shunshin.

Naruto's Mindscape
After coming home, Naruto decided to give the Kyūbi a visit. The Fox must have gotten lonely and since they were bound together till death, why not give it company.
"Yo Kyūbi. How have you been? Still have your sanity intact or should I just leave you alone to your beauty sleep" greeted Naruto getting a grunt in response.
"Why are you here mortal? How could I possibly wish to be in your company" replied Kyūbi.
"Can't I come and visit my best friend for once" retorted Naruto, enjoying the banter but then got serious, "I've mastered all that I was given on my parent's beginner's scroll. Chakra control, Academy Jutsu, Shurikenjutsu and some basic Taijutsu. So when are you planning for me next."
"To be honest, I was hoping you would take longer than that but you are proving yourself to be slightly worthy for my help. I won't help you unless absolutely necessary in my opinion, you are to train as the little Uchiha tells you to." replied Kyūbi.
"That means quite a few years then. Well, see ya later" said Naruto as he was about to leave.
"Wait a second, answer this one question first. What are your views on everlasting, world peace?" asked Kyūbi.
Seeing no harm in replying, he answered in a serious tone, "Peace is not something one can grab in his hand. One would have to put his life at stake for it and even then, the results would be temporary. In this cruel world, a path to true peace seems impossible."
'Nothing at all like Rikudo-jiji' thought Kyūbi and said, "Very well, you may leave."
"I wonder why you would ask that, anyways, see ya later" retorted Naruto.
"As if I would ever want to" was the reply of the being of mass destruction.

Uzumaki Estate Master Bedroom - Konoha
"That was an interesting conversation, I wonder why he would ask me about world peace. An impossibility if you ask me" said Naruto to himself and went to sleep, he had a big day tomorrow and he would need all the rest he could get. After all mastering the Sharingan in a year, six hundred clones or not, was not an easy task and he was just six years old. However he was not one to bend down to any challenge.

Training Ground 4 - Konoha
Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Naruto could be seen standing in the center of the ground. After using the Kage Bunshin No Jutsu (Shadow Clone Technique) and making four clones, Shisui said, "Now then Naruto, you will make six hundred and send one hundred for Chakra Control training. As for the other five hundred, they will divide into groups of one hundred each and go with a clone of mine and do as I am about to say. One group will practice reading and predicting movements, another will practice Sharingan Genjutsu, one more will be practicing copying movements and Jutsu, and the remaining two groups will develop a Taijutsu Style which can be used with and without the Sharingan, of course under the guidance of my clones and a few scrolls."
As the clones left to do as told Naruto, without the need for Shisui to speak, activated his weight seals and began physical training.
'He makes me so proud' thought Shisui, fully believing in his student's ability to achieve the impossible. "If you need any help, don't be shy to ask", his student has never once needed any extra help.
And this was how Uchiha Naruto's Sharingan training began.
That's it for now.
I hope you all enjoyed this chapter. I don't have much else to say other than hoping that you stick with me.
See you all next time
