Chapter 8: Tests
Hey there everyone, how's life? I appreciate the positive response from you all. This creative/constructive hobby is proving to be quite fruitful. I won't hold you back much further, so here's the next chapter, not as long as the last though.
"Uzumaki" - Human Speech
'Senju' - Human Thought
"Uchiha" - Biju Speech
'Otsutsuki' - Biju Thought

Quote of the Day:
I wonder how long... How long will I remain anchored at this harbor known as battle?
Disclaimer: I FaHaD 5212 do not own Naruto in any way (or do I?).
Chapter 8: Tests
Uzumaki Estate - Konoha
Entering the large building, one would find the occupants all asleep. The Uchiha, Uzumaki and the genetic anomaly all occupying different rooms.
Yes. No matter how much affection or teasing was shown by these three children, they did not sleep together because of the ample number of rooms; unless of course to comfort one another. Although the fact that the three of them being embarrassed, so to speak, due to more 'mature' thoughts which eventually led to rather vivid, intimate imaginations hence lack of the sleep necessary to withstand their rough training regimes, was the primary reason for this arrangement.
Today it was the girls' turn to make breakfast. Naruto had his turn alone as he could make clones; at least that was the excuse the two females used to hide the fact that, much to their chagrin, Naruto could cook a lot better than them and they had to work together to match his pace.
Figuring that an innovative combination of fried vegetables cooked with some spices, and grilled meat balls was a good way to surprise the lone male occupant of the house as well as make something healthy, the two girls got started and divided the work amongst themselves.
The morning went like any other. The three of them sitting on the table, eating while chatting. Finishing said breakfast, the Naruto, and Nana and Mea, went their separate ways.

Uchiha Clan Head's Private Training Ground - Konoha
Mea and Nana came to visit at their usual time at 8:00 am. Looking around and even using Mea's sensing ability, the Kagura Shingan (Mind's Eye of the Divine Entertainment), Mikoto was nowhere to be found.
"It seems that Sensei has gone with Sasuke to the Academy Tour after all *Sigh*" said Nana, a little miffed at the prospect of not having her teacher for a few hours.
"Ma Ma Nana-chan, you know she had to go, she also told us. It's not like she can focus solely on us when she has a child of her own. Besides, we already know what the daily drill is before the actual training so I guess we can give her some time off" suggested Mea, already preparing for her daily morning workout, Nana doing the same, a few seconds later.

Training Ground 4 - Konoha
It had been four hours since Naruto started his morning. He had just finished a few laps around the pond, yet still on the water, and was currently sitting on a tree branch.
"Good work there Naruto, now we can move on to something new I devised for you." Shisui's voice could be heard below Naruto; the temporary Jounin was sitting on the ground, resting his back against the tree, one leg straight and the the other folded so that his knee faced the sky. Shisui continued, "You see Naruto, from tomorrow on I have to go back to my duties as an Anbu. Watch your back and keep on guard every second because developments which made me go back earlier can cause harm to you as well. Unfortunately it is classified information which I am not at liberty to disclose, I'm already overstepping my boundaries by giving you a warning. Back to the relevant stuff, since I'm going to be leaving I want to take a...test of sorts."
"Test?" questioned Naruto, not prying deeper into other details as they could always be talked over later.
"Yes Naruto, a test. I will judge your progress on the ninja arts one final time and will give you a briefing on how to improve in my absence. You've gotten enough rest now, let's get started" said Shisui as he stood up and jumped a large distance away from the tree.
Jumping down a short distance from the tree, spinning, Naruto got into his Taijutsu stance, the Uchiageru no Ryū: Nama (Dragon Rush: Raw). The style was made so that Naruto could easily alternate between Ninjutsu and Taijutsu, with Ninjutsu being executed as quickly as possible and Taijutsu as fiercely, with as much power with speed, as possible; as well as add elementally boosted attacks. Naruto lowered his stature and drew his left arm a little to the left in front of him on an equal level as his head, his right arm straightened and tilted slightly behind him, this version in particular focusing more on Taijutsu over Ninjutsu. Sharingan spinning into action, Naruto was ready to fight.
Shisui in turn entered his own stance. "Make this a bit more enjoyable for me than last year's practice spar" said Shisui as he leaped forward, using Chakra to assist him.
"Right, let's get this dance started." Naruto mimicked his teacher's large jump.
The two Uchiha had a mid-air fist-clash, Sharingan glaring holes into the other. The older easily overpowering the younger and contacting him on the cheek, Naruto was sent flying into a tree which cracked under the force of the impact.
"The enemy is always stronger than you, don't hold back even a little" lectured Shisui as Naruto got up and moved closer to Shisui, but was surrounded by a puff of smoke.
The smoke cleared the reveal... Naruto? 'What did he...? Oh yes, he can make those' thought Shisui as he threw a Kunai and coated it with Fire Chakra.
The Kunai moving at speeds not visible to the untrained eye and Sharingan or not, Naruto could easily dodge it. However he didn't need to as it was aimed at the ground. 'Wha...?!' were ‘Naruto's’ last thoughts before the Kunai exploded in a small swirl of fire the moment touched solid ground, engulfing ‘Naruto’ in the process.
"It seems that I was right," mused Shisui out loud, "that was a smoke-less Kage Bunshin (Shadow Clone) you made when impacted with the tree, which was replaced using Kawarami (Substitution)." However immediately after saying that, he was forced to dodge ten Kunai coated in Wind Chakra, which came from five different directions behind him. The Kunai impaled the ground but held another surprise for Shisui. Explosive Tags were attached to them, not the regular ones mind you, no, these were Uzumaki custom tags which were three times more powerful.
Leaving unscathed in a timely Shunshin (Body Flicker), Shisui left a powerful explosion which took place behind his back. Using his tracking experience from the Anbu, Naruto was not a difficult target to find.
Following the trail, Shishui reached another clearing in the large density of trees. Naruto was quite adept in Fuinjutsu (Sealing Art), in the short time during which Shishui dealt with Naruto's clone and the Explosive Kunai, Naruto drew a sealing array which was subtly hidden. Shishui noticed but was too late as he stood in the centre of it. The array glowed blue signifying that the seal had activated.
"I have to commend you Naruto, even with clones it takes a great deal of skill to make a sealing array this large, clones or not. Now Naruto, tell me what you're going to do now that you've sealed my Chakra?" Upon finishing Shishui immediately moved to exit the rather large clearing, of which he was in centre.
"You'll find out soon enough" Naruto's voice echoed around Shishui, a on it Genjutsu masking his original location. Now Naruto could use a Genjutsu on Shishui to trap him and finish the job but he wasn't skilled enough to catch a target moving as fast as Shishui and Shishui was as fast as a Jounin using Chakra to move, without Chakra mind you.
Quickly deciding that using Ninjutsu was the best option and that his Sensei, with his experience and skill, could live though not necessarily win, Naruto formed a clone and both weaved through hand signs.
Katon: Hōsenka Tsumabeni (Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Flower Nail Crimson)
Fūton: Shinkūha (Wind Release: Vacuum Wave)
Multiple super-charged bursts of fire along with a few sharp slicing hot winds moved towards Shishui, through his heightened reflexes, was able to dodge the fireballs but his clothes got charred and a had a small cut on his cheek which was bleeding lightly. On the bright side he managed to get out of the seal and in a show of impressive Chakra-boosted speed, punched Naruto in the gut and sent him spiraling into another tree, this time breaking it.
Regaining his bearings and getting up on his knees, Naruto noticed that Shishui sent a Clone to remove the seal and was preparing a Jutsu himself.
Katon: Karyūdan (Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bullet)
Multiple dragon shaped fireballs moved towards Naruto who quickly used another Jutsu to counter.
Suiton: Suijinheki (Water Release: Water Formation Wall)
Water formed from the atmosphere and raging waves burst forth in a spiral around Naruto. Upon contact with the fire the water immediately turned to steam which spread around the area, blocking vision.
Naruto however was a sensor, though not on the level of Mea, his Kagura Shingan (Mind's Eye of the Divine Entertainment) was still quite efficient even though he had to focus a bit more to go into detailed sensory. After a little research, the Sandaime concluded that he awakened the ability due to the Kyubi's Chakra causing changes in his body. Naruto in turn figured that it was awakened when the Kyubi accelerated the awakening of his Sharingan and Mokuton; something he hadn't really told anyone.
Using his sensory ability Naruto was able to figure Shisui's location, though the inactive Anbu's Chakra indicated that he was about to use a Jutsu. Since Shisui also had a wind affinity, the expected course of action would be... 'Crap' Naruto thought as he started forming hand seals.
Fūton: Senpūken (Wind Release: Whirlwind Fist)
Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Shadow Clone Technique)
Shisui punched the air and unleashed a powerful gust of wind, which brought with itself sharp wind blades, but his technique was countered by Naruto. However the sheer force of the wind was enough to blow away the mist; the last technique being silently executed.
"It seems that you've grown a lot, congratulations on dragging this on this far. Time to end this" said Shisui as he started weaving through more hand seals.
Naruto quickly dashed as fast as he could and managed to get directly in front of Shisui before he could execute the Jutsu.
'I don't like where this is going' thought Shisui as he cancelled his Jutsu and stopped the flow of fire Chakra. Naruto got surrounded in a plume of smoke started glowing.
Bunshin Daibakuha (Clone Great Explosion)
Shunshin no Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique)
The Naruto in front of Shisui exploded but Shisui, already having predicted this, move out of harm’s way. "Good job Naruto, if I had continued with my Jutsu you would have gotten me" said Shisui, his sweating due to the heat of the explosion which he avoided by a hair.
Not letting Naruto use another seal, Shisui quickly did what he had to.
Katon: Karyū no Hōkō (Fire Release: Roar of the Fire Dragon)
Shisui exhaled a brilliant flame and turned around in a 360 so as to burn everything around him to cinders and force Naruto to come out in the open.
Seeing Shisui use a powerful, all area Jutsu, Naruto was forced to use a Chakra enhanced jump to leap towards the sky in order to avoid the fire, which he barely did. Upon landing Naruto sent a mock glare at Shisui and said, "Not fair Sensei, you know I can't use Jutsu that powerful."
"Nothing is fair in life, Naruto. This has gone on for too long, time to end this" said Shisui as stated at Naruto's eyes, putting him in a powerful Genjutsu.
Naruto noticing this, quickly dispelled it only to find himself bound by ropes, unable to firm hand seals. 'Double layered, damn' thought the eight year old, 'It's difficult to pull off but I have to mold Chakra without hand seals.'
Hyper focusing on the task at hand, Naruto managed to dispel the illusion just in time to get away from Shisui who was about to knock him unconscious. Forming hand signs, he prepared an attack.
Mokuton: Mokuzō Yari Danmaku (Wood Release: Wood Spear Barrage)
Spears if wood rose from the ground and flew at Shisui, forcing him to jump back, giving Naruto time to use more Jutsu. Forming a Clone, he prepared more Jutsu.
Suiton: Ōkina Nami (Water Release: Great Waves)
Raiton: Rakurai (Lighting Release: Thunderbolt)
A large amount of water, with electricity coursing through it, rushed towards Shisui at high speeds. However while Naruto was preparing his Jutsu, Shisui was not sitting idle.
Futon: Renkūdan (Wind Release: Drilling Air Bullets)
Katon: Gōryūka no Jutsu (Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique)
While at an elemental disadvantage by itself, the collaboration used by Shisui was powerful enough to cancel out Naruto's collaboration, forming another cloud of steam, some sparks visible every now and then.
Doton: Shinjū Zanshu no Jutsu (Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique)
Naruto appeared from below Shisui but was unable to trap him, as he jumped into the air. The air borne Shisui went through some hand signs.
Fūton: Shinkūha (Wind Release: Vacuum Wave)
Unleashing another gust of slicing winds, Shisui cleared the area of the steam. Landing on the ground Shisui saw Naruto coming up from the ground. Eyebrows twitching in annoyance at how long the battle had dragged on, Shisui vanished in a blur of pure speed and appeared behind Naruto. He hit the boy on a pressure point in his neck, knocking him out.
Sighing, Shisui picked up the unconscious boy and moved to take him home. Yes, Naruto had figured out how to enter another person's Chakra signature on the barrier. The barrier itself was on a Fuinjutsu master's level, however adding who can enter and such, while difficult in its own right, was not as vexing as making it. Once Naruto found the main seal, which took Chakra from nature to power the barrier, he used all his knowledge on the seal and realized that he had to take some raw Chakra from the person seeking entry and add an array to the master seal with which it will be connected to it, hence allowing the owner of the Chakra to pass through.
=====OFR=====
Uzumaki Estate - Konoha
It has been a two hours since Shisui brought Naruto home. Naruto finally started to wake up, looking around he saw his Sensei sitting on a comfortable seat beside the couch he was lying on.
"You won, huh? You have to admit I was good back there" said Naruto in a partially excited tone.
"Yes Naruto, you've come far. You now use your mind more and you have a decent grasp on all the ninja arts. You know, that seal back there really surprised me" complimented Shisui, "I think that you should be able to beat a high level Chunin, maybe even a low level Jounin if you get lucky."
"No, I can't leave things to luck. I want to get stronger" replied Naruto, "So Shisu-nii, I guess you'll have to go now."
"Don't worry Naruto, I'll come visit when I can. Also, I said that I would give you tips so I guess the best you can do is just practice what you know and learn more" said Shisui.
"Thanks. You go on now, I'll go check on the girls" replied Naruto as he got up and prepared to leave.
"Until next time" Shisui jumped out of a window he purposefully left open and vanished in a Shunshin (Body Flicker), Naruto doing the same seeing no problem in it.
=====OFR=====
Uchiha Clan Head's Private Training Ground - Konoha
Upon reaching the ground, Naruto was presented with the following scene.
Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)
Suiton: Ōkī Minase (Water Release: Great Water Torrent)
The two Jutsu collided to form a large cloud of steam. The users of the Jutsu dashed towards each other at Chakra boosted speeds and punched each other on the side of their faces, sending them flying in opposite directions.
Naruto immediately formed two Kage Bunshin (Shadow Clones) which caught the two girls and used basic wind manipulation to clear the Training Ground of the vapor.
"Now Now girls, I don't want you hurting each other too badly" chided Naruto looking at the girls' attire; Nana's clothes had small cuts and tears while Mea's clothes were charred around the edges.
"Says the guy in worse condition than us" retorted Nana, who along with Mea noticed Naruto's state of dress; a half torn mesh shirt, exposing some of his torso around his left arm, and charred black pants which seemed to have rough edges, as if they were hit with electricity.
Naruto had the decency to look sheepish, "At least I'm still not wet, unlike you two. Anyway, what's up with you trying to beat each other into the ground?"
"We were just sparring" said the two innocently in unison.
It was at that moment when a certain Uchiha matriarch decided to set foot on the ground. "What the heck did you guys do to this place?!" exclaimed Mikoto looking at the torn up ground and burned trees.
"Just a little friendly spar" said Mea and Nana in unison.
"I just came at the end of it" Naruto added.
"What have I told you about sparring without my knowing?" questioned Mikoto.
"To not do it" the girls said once again in unison.
"What am I going to do with you two?" said Mikoto sighing.
"Don't worry Miko-kaa, this is nothing compared to what Shisu-Sensei and I did" added Naruto.
Interrupting Mikoto from continuing any further, Sasuke moved into the ground and, ignoring all the damage done, said excitedly "Hey there Naruto, Nana, Mea. Long time no see, huh?"
"It's been a while, yes" replied the genetic anomaly.
"So Naruto, have you gotten stronger? I know I have, Tou-san taught me a cool new fire Jutsu." Sasuke said excitedly.
"Well then, let's go to the lake and see it, shall we?" suggested Naruto.
Moving to one end of the lake, Sasuke slowly went through hand seals.
Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)
A decent sized fireball moved was exhaled by Sasuke which covered a quarter of the lake. 'Interesting, he's not receiving special training and yet he's this good. Let's give him an incentive to improve' thought Naruto.
"How's that?!" exclaimed Sasuke, looking back at Naruto.
"Allow me to show you how it’s done" said Naruto coolly. He intentionally worked way slower than normal and did hand seals thrice as fast as Sasuke.
Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire Release: Grand Fireball Technique)
A large fireball was exhaled by Naruto in a brilliant flame, covering half the lake. 'Weaker than what I'm used to but perfect for giving him a target to work for that is just out of his current reach' thought Naruto as he grunted in acknowledgement.
"Whoa, how'd you do that?" asked a surprised Sasuke.
"Dedicated hard work" was Naruto's simple reply as he moved back towards Mikoto and the crew.
"Whoa... That was awesome! I've got to get Nii-san to train me" Sasuke said to himself as he ran to find his elder brother.
Seeing Sasuke leave, Naruto decided to go do his own Fuinjutsu (Sealing Art) training and invited the girls.
"Sorry Naru-kun, Kaa-chan here was busy today so we need to cover up" said Mea, giving Mikoto a half-hearted glare.
"I see. Well don't be out late; it's already 6:00 pm." Naruto then proceeded to leave in a swirl of leaves.
=====OFR=====
Hokage Office - Konoha
"Forgive me Shisui, but the Uchiha are slowly getting more and more aggressive. We might soon have a civil war at our hands, and it is getting more likely that young Itachi will be exposed. If things do not settle soon, drastic action will need to be taken." Of course this was the Sandaime Hokage of Konoha speaking.
"Unfortunately it seems that the clan will most likely be set out on being purged" Shisui sighed as he said this.
"I really wish that wasn't so. I will try my best to handle this diplomatically but you know, the village is under me and I consider everyone of the villagers my family. It would be a hard choice to make if wiping out the Uchiha gets necessary" sighed the Hokage, who thought 'All this sighing makes me feel even older than I actually am, and that's a lot all things considered.'
"We can only hope for the best. I hope I can get back to teaching Naruto some other time, it's quite enjoyable to be honest."
"Only time can tell my boy."
=====OFR=====
Unknown Location
Looking around, one could easily describe the place in one word; rocky. The place was seemingly a 'room' in a mountain which had broken pieces of rock on the ground near the entrance. The cave was dimly lit and had a sizable throne in it.
"It seems...that Nagato has finally summoned...the Gedō Mazō (Demonic Statue of the Outer Path). Zetsu, bring...me the potion you prepared, quickly" said the voice of a weak old man, the affects of time as visible as day on his features although one feature stood out, one visible Sharingan in the right eye.
From the ground rose a half black, half white plant like, humanoid figure which handed the old man a vial. "Here you go Madara-sama" said the white half, "The timing couldn't have been better, could it?" the black half questioned rhetorically.
Drinking all of the foul liquid, Madara felt like throwing up. Zetsu had indeed mixed up the vilest and unthinkable materials to make this elixir, so much so that even he, a war veteran, felt like vomiting.
"Of course, my grandson is about to go through an important time after all" replied Madara who was... De-aging? From the one hundred year old fossil, he reverted back into a…twelve year old child, "Hm? This is the age at which I first met Hashirama."
"The potion, as you can see, will cause you to turn to a child at first. Then through one year, you will grow, age a year a month. After that, you will age twice as fast as normal people for two years. Finally in the fourth year, you will age quickly and will die in eight to twelve months." Black Zetsu spoke. Say what you will, when Black and White Zetsu worked together they were quite smart, White Zetsu just wanted to be more light-hearted.
"I see. That should be enough time to...do what I have to." It was an odd scene to hear those words come from a child.
And that's it for now.
Like it? Love it? Hate it? Do tell in a review. Oh, and I'll upload pictures of the currently two planned versions of the Uchiageru no Ryu later when I find the time.
Jutsu List:
Fūton: Senpūken (Wind Release: Whirlwind Fist): B/A Rank: Offensive/Supplementary:
The user coats Wind Chakra in their fist and punches either the air, for a powerful gust of wind with wind blades spreading around the affected area, or the foe, to inflict massive damage and possibly killing them. The power of the wind blades and intensity of the gust increase with the Chakra input.
Katon: Karyū no Hōkō (Fire Release: Roar of the Fire Dragon): A/S Rank (Depending on Chakra input): Offensive:
The user first inhales, gathering fire in their mouth, and then releases such fire in the direction of their opponent, creating a large, exploding fireball which damages and burns the opponent; it can also be guided by the direction the user faces to incinerate things in an area wide effect. This Jutsu can be performed two ways: the first, and more "complicated" way involves the user putting their hands before their mouth, in a pose resembling that of a trumpeter, before releasing the fire, prompting it to be expelled between their fingers. The flames produced by this version start out as a very thin stream, enough to be fit between the user's fingers, before suddenly enlarging to strike the opponent. The other simpler, and seemingly faster way, simply has the user quickly gathers flames in their mouth and then releases them, with no seeming stance required, producing a much larger burst of fire.
Mokuton: Mokuzō Yari Danmaku (Wood Release: Wood Spear Barrage): B/A Rank (Depending on Chakra input): Offensive:
The user pours Wood Chakra through the earth and calls forth a multitude of wooden spears which move on to pierce the target. The number and speed/force of the spears increases with the Chakra input
Suiton: Ōkina Nami (Water Release: Great Waves): B/A Rank (Depending on Chakra input): Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary:
The user releases a large amount of water from their mouth which rushes towards the target. This large wave of water can use the immense force water to attack, the waves themselves to defend, and use another Jutsu (such as a Raiton Jutsu) to boost the effects of the Jutsu. The Chaka input affects the amount of water and intensity of the waves.
Raiton: Rakurai (Lighting Release: Thunderbolt): B/A Rank (Depending on Chakra input): Offensive:
The user creates a lightning bolt made of Chakra out of thin air and sends it at the target at high speeds. The size, speed and power of the Jutsu increase with the Chakra input.
Suiton: Ōkī Minase (Water Release: Great Water Torrent): C/B Rank (Depending on Chakra input): Offensive/Defensive/ Supplementary:
A weaker version of the Suiton: Ōkina Nami (Water Release: Great Waves).
Until next time,
R&R.
