Much to Shizune's dismay, Tsunade had pushed aside her paperwork to come with them. Under the pretense that being the Godaime she needed to know what all her ninja's were capable of. Shizune sighed, excusing herself from the show saying that someone had to keep things running. She gave Tsunade a look that promised to hunt her down if she wasn't back in a reasonable amount of time. Kakashi lead the way to a secluded spot near the training grounds that he had always used for Team Seven to practice. Being it was still in the early hours of the morning they were able to get there without an audience.

Jiraiya stood beside her, his arms crossed with a smug look on his face waiting for the sparring to begin. "You seem confident about this, you old fool. Do you think the boy can beat Kakashi?" Tsunade inquired leaning forward to look Jiraiya in the eye. Laughing, the frog Sennin explained. "Since they are just sparring for fun and not in a life threatening situation Kakashi can beat him, simply because Naruto won't take it seriously." Tsunade cocked her head, scrunching her brow, she asked. "All that's happened to him and all the training he has had and still he is unable to beat Kakashi?"

Sighing Jiraiya turned his gaze to her. "The boy has learned a lot while away, but he is still young and does make mistakes. He did learn some techniques from the other Sennin�s he studied with. The youkai�s mainly taught him how to be sly and sneaky." Reaching out Jiraiya laid his hand on her shoulder. "Naruto has the drive and potential to become a great shinobi. Like all of us, over time he will gain skills and experience that will help him fulfill his dreams. The older he gets the more of Kyuubi's power he'll gain as well. He has the potential to be much more than just the Jinchuuriki."

Releasing her shoulder, he turned his attention back to his student. �If his life or the life of someone he cared about were in danger, then he would go all out and hold nothing back. He would sacrifice himself to protect those he cares about, but this evaluation with Kakashi is play and he'll treat it that way. I'm sure we'll all get a good show." Jiraiya explained sneaking a peek at Sasuke, who was the only other one there to watch the fight.

Sasuke stood rigid, watching the two shinobi�s that were currently talking, he would never admit he was excited to watch the two spar, but he was ready with his Sharingan so he could catch all of Naruto's moves. Just so he would know what to expect when they sparred, and he intended for them to spar soon.

Standing in the field Kakashi had led them to sensei and student faced off. Well actually Kakashi still had one of his 'Icha Icha Paradise' books out scanning the pages carelessly while Naruto went on about the different sensei's he had studied under while gone. 'This should be interesting.' The Jounin admitted to himself as he finally glanced at his once again student. The boy still had his robe on although he had left the hood down. Kakashi wondered if he would really fight wearing such a thing. The young frog still sat atop Naruto's head, and in his pockets were the two fox kits with their heads peeking out, watching Kakashi intently. 'They don't seem to be a threat, and their chakra is very low but I don't think those two are normal foxes.' He surmised clicking his book shut and moving to put it in his pocket.

"Naruto. . .will your friends be sparring with you?" Kakashi lazily remarked fastening his pocket so his book didn�t become a target again. Naruto looked down at the foxes who returned his gaze and then up at Gamakichi who leaned down over his forehead. Returning his attention to Kakashi, Naruto snickered blushing slightly. "I'm so use to them being with me I forgot. Sorry sensei I�ll just be a minute." The blonde shinobi explained as he trotted over to Jiraiya pulling Gamakichi off his head as he went. "Here jiji." Naruto causally remarked handing the frog to Jiraiya not noticing Tsunade cocked an eyebrow when Naruto used his new title in regards to the Sennin. Pulling the two kits from his pockets Naruto placed them on the ground on either side of his traveling companion. "You guys stay with Jiraiya-jiji, I get to spar with Kakashi-sensei. It's just for fun so no interfering." The boy explained to the array of animals he carried with him.

Raising a webbed front foot Gamakichi gave him a few last moment instructions before the fight. "Remember what you've learned, make us proud. Don't give him any slack just because he�s your sensei again, kick his ass tadpole." The small amphibian instructed as the two kits made growling noises agreeing with the frog. Nodding Naruto returned to face off against Kakashi.

Shaking his head at his blonde student Kakashi smiled through his mask as Naruto took up a defensive stance. "Should I take offense that a frog just told you to kick my ass or should you at being called a tadpole?" He asked, his voice reflected his humor. Kakashi watched Naruto, in the past the boy would have been upset by his teasing; now it only made him smile more.

"Well, Gamabunta did adopt me into the family. These summoned creatures�s age differently than humans do; I'm sure you�re aware of that since you have the pack dogs." Naruto explained surprising Kakashi that he had learned something so important while away. 'The boy never seemed to get stuff like this before; I guess he may have matured some after all.' The silver haired ninja admitted to himself as Naruto continued. "Being that the summoned age differently in their time I am younger than Gamakichi, so that would make me a tadpole to him and I do plan on kicking your ass so I don't think either of us should be offended. Unless the idea of me kicking your ass offends you?" Naruto explained dropping the stance he had taken to stretch his arms above him, seeming to forget about the fact they were suppose to be sparring. "Are we going to talk all day or are we going to get started?" Kakashi shook his head still smiling, his visible eye squinting from his smile. "Oh, I'm not offended. You're more than welcome to try Naruto. Let's start . . . right now."

With that Kakashi went on the offensive, rushing toward Naruto, intending to punch his student. A little shocked that Kakashi would attack first Naruto jumped back avoiding the punch as his sensei produced several shurikens. Doing a cartwheel to avoid the throwing stars, Naruto then turned the cartwheel into a back bend. Straightening back up Naruto held a small wooden, jointed toy dragon that he had pulled from his robe while bent over. Charging the toy up with chakra Naruto ran flinging the toy toward Kakashi. Calling out, "Omocha Ryuu no Jujutsu" while releasing it. As it flew from his hands the simple, harmless toy quickly began to change thanks to the chakra, growing till it was about the size of a horse, heading for Kakashi with its jaws opened wide.

Kakashi's one visible eye widened as the dragon creature headed right at him, the Jounin teacher had been surprised to see that Naruto's chakra had changed from the last time he had seen him; before his chakra had been blue and would change to red when he drew on the power of Kyuubi but, now it was purple. While this chakra didn't give off the same evil feeling as it did when it was red, it certainly was just as overwhelmingly powerful.

Jumping into the trees to avoid the creature, quickly he pulled his hitai-ate up, exposing his Sharingan eye. 'I never would have thought I�d need this when fighting Naruto.' He thought to himself as he looked at the dragon creature now with both eyes. The Sharingan exposed the truth behind the creature he was attempting to evade was actually similar to Naruto's Kage Bushin no Jutsu. Shadow clones were charged up with chakra and could cause damage to an opponent, the same as this simple toy.

Exiting the tree cover Kakashi headed toward Naruto with the dragon still in pursuit. Pulling out a kunai Kakashi aiming for the creature, luckily he hit the dragon causing it to disappear with a loud pop. Glancing back over his shoulder where the beast had been. The Jounin found the original toy dragon lying harmlessly on the ground where the powerful looking creature had been moments before. "Impressive . . . . " Kakashi commented, pushing his chakra into his legs to increase his speed, the Jounin suddenly appeared in front of Naruto. Now within striking range, his sensei side kicked him in the chest.

Seeing his sensei approaching so rapidly Naruto barely had time to utter "Hari Jizou" causing his hair to extend and harden covering himself in spikes as the hit connected sending him flying back. Kakashi hissed as he pulled his leg back, one of the spikes had stabbed his leg when his kick had hit. 'Damn, he has learned a lot.' The silver haired ninja commented to himself ignoring the slight burn in his leg.

Rolling himself into a ball Naruto released the jutsu. When the ground came under his hands on his next roll, Naruto pushed himself into a handstand to end the somersaults. From the handstand he quickly pushed off landing himself back on his feet. Wasting no time, once his feet hit the ground Naruto launched into the air. Pulling out a shuriken, he placed it in his mouth, he made the signs for the Shihouhappou Shuriken no Maki. The area quickly filled with Naruto's shadow clones all holding a throwing star which they let loss right at Kakashi's position. The sound of several of the shurikens connecting with their target could be heard only for the Jounin to disappear in a pop of smoke leaving a log behind.

Allowing his clones to disappear Naruto checked around trying to find his sensei. Taking up a defensive stance, he slowly pulled out his kunai from his pack cautiously checking for the tingle of Kakashi's chakra. At the sudden feeling of someone grabbing his legs and pulling downward he realized he had found him. Charging his fist with chakra Naruto punched down into the ground hitting Kakashi in the cheek, under his Sharingan eye. Squinting at the pain, Kakashi lost his hold on the boy's legs allowing Naruto to withdraw.

Jumping far from Kakashi's reach Naruto watched as his sensei exited the ground; it was obvious he'd be sporting a shiner soon. Smiling as bright as the sun, Naruto began praising his sensei. "That was really cool Kakashi-sensei, first a Kawarimi no Jutsu then Doton Shinjuu Zanshu no Jutsu, you really know how to pull good tricks." Taking a deep breath and relaxing his stance Naruto said. "Now it's my turn for a trick, I'm so excited Kakashi-sensei. I get to show off one of my greatest moves I learned to you."

Kakashi shook his head at the young man's antics, he had underestimated him. "You�re not supposed to tell your opponent what your doing Naruto." He reminded him while Naruto's smile turned into a foxy grin as he raised his pointer and middle finger of one hand to his forehead. "Oh this is just for fun, not really a fight so I can play as much as I want. Get ready now sensei, Kyouninnin no Jujutsu Yajuu."

Watching with his Sharingan for the unknown move, Kakashi was shocked when his student didn't perform any hand signs. Naruto stood still, the only thing that changed was his chakra. 'The move isn't something I can copy. It has to do with his chakra. This is a type of Kinjutsu. No, could it be a Hitjutsu?' Kakashi wondered watching as Naruto's form wavered, as it cleared up again instead of Naruto there was a blonde fox with blue eyes standing around six feet tall stood in front of him. His eyes widened as fear gripped him for a moment till he completely took in the beast's stance. It was terrifying to come face to face with a large demon fox, a thing like the Kyuubi attack doesn't leave you. Kakashi relaxed when the fox lopped its tongue out, wearing the same foxy grin on its muzzle that Naruto had worn just moments ago. This creature was anything but terrifying though.

Tsunade gasped, covering her mouth when Naruto reappeared out of the wavering chakra in the form of a fox. Running from the side lines the Godaime burst onto the grounds they were sparing on stepping in between them, her arms raised halting the fight. "Stop this immediately! Naruto, explain yourself what is the meaning of this?" She asked angrily crossing her arms over her ample breasts, turning to face Naruto.

The large blonde fox plopped down on its haunches lowering its ears like a dog that had just been smacked on the nose with a paper. Raising a forepaw to his forehead the fox's form wavered until Naruto once again stood in front of them. "Aaah, Tsunade-baba the fight was just getting good." He whined pouting like a child.

Tsunade sighed at the boy's expression; she always had been a sucker when it came to that boy. Lowering her voice since her anger had deflated some she explained. "Naruto, you didn't say you could become the Kyuubi. I don't think that is such a good idea especially around here." Naruto scrunched up his brow considering what the Godiame had said. "I didn't turn into Kyuubi, he's much larger plus his color is more like fire and has nine tails. I transformed myself into what I would look like in youkai animal form." Naruto explained, refusing to look at Tsunade, he was still upset that his sparring match had been stopped. "That's even worse. What if some of the villagers had seen you?" Tsunade asked shaking her head at him. "Naruto . . . . " Sighing Naruto huffed at her. "I didn't really change, it's just kitsune magic. Kitsune's are the masters of illusion and tricks you know. It's just a trick, really." He tired to explain. "It's kind of like a Henge."

'He really doesn't realize how bad this could be for him. Kami, why doesn't this boy understand I want him back with no problems? Naruto, you don't you realize how precious you are, do you?' Tsunade thought as she snorted at Naruto's explanation. Walking over to the short blonde she placed her hands on his shoulders. "Please Naruto I don't think it's a good idea to do this move anywhere around Konoha. It could cause you problems. Think, what would the villagers think if they saw you like that? You understand my reasons don't you?"

Finally Naruto looked Tsunade in the eye, 'she looks sorry about the matter,' Naruto figured he could just practice the move when he wasn't around Konoha. Shrugging indifferently he replied. "All right Tsunade-baba, I won't do this move around Konoha. Unless we are under attack and I think this move would help." He replied smiling happily again. Tsunade huffed smiling as she shook her head at the young man in front of her. "All right Naruto, I can live with that."

Kakashi pulled his headband over his Sharingan eye and sighed, he had to admit the boy was still the number one surprising ninja. "Oi, Naruto . . . that was a good trick." Naruto straightened up and smiled at Kakashi's praise. "Ah, thanks sensei, I'm glad you liked it." Naruto replied reaching back to rub the back of his head in a nervous gesture. "I remember your lessons on not taking things at face value, and looking at what's underneath. Chakujitsu; one of my other sensei's, taught me it's important to always have a couple of good tricks ready to go before you go up against anyone."

Dropping his hand from behind his head he clasped them behind his back rocking back and forth on the balls of his feet, acting in a manner that made him seem much younger. "Chakujitsu-sensei said no matter how strong your opponent, you can win easily if you can throw them off and the best way is to have a trick ready." Kakashi glanced over at those watching and listening he could tell Tsunade was pleased with the training he had received. 'He was always one to run into a fight without thinking; it's good to know he has finally figured out how to use his head. Still he acts as much like a child as he was when I first became his sensei; like he hasn't aged one bit, but then he goes and says things that seem almost too advanced for someone like him.' Smiling Kakashi nodded to his student then turned his attention to Tsunade.

"So then Godaime, unless there�s a problem I'll be taking my students back. I think we will have some practice to get our teamwork back in a few days, as soon as Naruto is settled. I'll be in touch with everyone in a few days." Kakashi explained watching as Sasuke and Jiraiya walked over to them. "I'll be sure Sakura is informed. I better get back to work before Shizune comes looking for me." Tsunade said reaching out to ruffle Naruto's unruly hair, as she passed him on her way back toward Hokage Tower.

Walking up Jiraiya handed Naruto his animals that he had been keeping. Grabbing the two foxes first Naruto placed them back in his pockets, reaching out to pick up Gamakichi the frog stopped him by putting up a webbed foot. "I'm going to go visit the rest of the family for a while Naruto. You�re going to be busy visiting and getting settled, I'd just be in the way." Hands still in mid reach Naruto frowned. "You�re not in the way Gamakichi." Smiling the young frog sighed. "Thanks, but I really would like to head home for awhile. It's been a long time since I saw dad. Gamayuu says we got a few new tadpoles since I was last there. So if you don't care . . . . " Dropping his hands, Naruto smiled sadly at his constant friend for over a year. "It's fine Gamakichi; if I need you I'll summon you right? Plus you can pop in anytime you want." Waving, the frog disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Placing a hand on Naruto's shoulder Jiraiya gave it a comforting squeeze. It had been over a year since Naruto had been without Gamakichi. Gamabunta had been worried about him, after the merger so had sent Gamakichi to stay with him. It was touching really coming from someone like Gamabunta. To the large frog boss the boy was considered part of their family, unlike Jiraiya who was merely a signature on the contract scroll. It almost made Jiraiya a little jealous at how close Naruto was to them, but considering the changes Naruto went through with the merger having a relationship like he had with the summoned frogs was really for the best. At least they would still be with him when all his mortal friends were gone.

Gamakichi was able to stay by drawing the chakra he needed from Naruto; since the boy had gained chakra enough to burn from the merger, the young frog was able to feed off of Naruto's chakra like the foxes did when they changed. Gamakichi and Naruto had struck up a quick friendship. The young frog was able to help somewhat if Naruto got into a pinch plus he stood up to the Kitsune�s, if he didn't agree with what they tried to persuade Naruto into. Naruto having Gamakichi around was a relief to Jiraiya, knowing someone else was also watching out for the brat's well being. He was going to miss the young frog as well.

Jiraiya understood why the summoned frog was leaving for awhile, if Naruto was going to reconnect with his human friends he needed to spend time with them. Not having Gamakichi around would free up more of Naruto's time for interaction with the humans. Plus if Naruto was going to be a ninja again then having animals hanging onto him all the time was not the best idea. Soon Yasuo and Noriko would have to step away and let Naruto lead the life he wanted as well.

"Come on, you left your key for your apartment with Umino Iruka right? What about you two? Are you coming too? After the boy has his key, we can go get a bite to eat. What do you say?" Jiraiya said pushing Naruto toward town. "Seeing Umino Iruka sounds like a great idea." Kakashi agreed, slumping he took up a place behind them. "Coming Sasuke? Or do you have something else to do?" The copy ninja baited, knowing full well Sasuke usually just trained or stayed to himself.

Sasuke pushed his hands into his pockets as he took several long strides to reach Naruto's side then slowed to match the blonde's pace. "Hn . . . I got nothing better to do for now." Bouncing in excitement Naruto grabbed Sasuke's wrist again, pulling him toward town. "Yeah, come on Sasuke let's go see Iruka-sensei." The hyper ninja called out jerking his friend into a faster pace. "Ugh, baka don�t drag me around." Sasuke chided him though he did nothing to gain his release.

Kakashi snorted shaking his head at the two's antics, taking up walking beside Jiraiya the lazy Jounin glanced over to the Sennin. "Are you going to fill me in or do I find out on my own?" Almost indistinctly the frog tamer nodded once. "Later . . . . " Jiraiya assured Kakashi as they followed the boys toward the Academy.

Entering the academy grounds Kakashi and Jiraiya could hear Naruto. "Isn't it great Sasuke? My swing is still here." Both men smiled when they came up to the tree that housed the swing Naruto claimed to be his. "Hn, a little old to be playing on a swing aren't you, usuratonkachi?" Sasuke asked leaning against the tree while watching his friends childish antics. Naruto ignored his jibe continuing to swing, his robe dragging in the dirt and two rather sick looking fox kits leaning out of his pockets. "Nope, this will still be my swing when I'm 102." Naruto declared pumping his legs with more determination.

Chuckling Jiraiya walked up to the two boys. Leaning against the trunk of the tree Jiraiya said. "I think your friends would be happier if you'd not include them in your play, boy." Dragging his feet to stop Naruto gave him a confused look until the older man pointed down toward the fox kits. Following his gesture Naruto looked down to see both of the kits were leaning out of his pockets trying hard not to toss up their breakfast on his robe. Jumping up he pulled the two out stroking them carefully. "Oh man sorry nii-san, nee-chan I forgot you guys were in there." Naruto explained, setting them down on the ground, they staggered a bit before recovering. Sasuke bowed his head closing his eyes, "you�re not very thoughtful of your pets." Naruto looked up at his raven-haired friend from where he was still crouched down with the foxes. "They�re not pets you bastard, their family." Sasuke rolled his eyes at Naruto�s assertion then turned away. "Hn."

As he turned Sasuke saw the two older men exchange glances. Clearly Kakashi had questions that the older man was putting off answering. Sensing Sasuke's gaze on them Kakashi cleared his throat as Naruto was helping the foxes back into his pockets again. Leading the way, Kakashi waved at them to follow. "Come on Naruto, we want to catch Iruka before he takes off don't we?" Bolting upright Naruto hurried to get behind the two sensei�s following them. "Come on Sasuke." He called wanting the other boy to still follow.

Sasuke fell in line with the others; he was surprised that even though Naruto and he had been jibbing at one another he felt no need to leave. In fact at the moment he was more than willing to follow the blonde around town. 'I'm just trying to reestablish our teamwork.' He finally decided, making sense of his willingness to humor the dobe. 'We�re a team again, we need to be able to trust one another and work together.'

Coming to the room that Iruka's class was in, Kakashi stuck his head in looking for the brunette Chunnin.

Still sitting behind his desk fussing over papers, Iruka looked rather stressed. 'He's so cute when he's stressed.' Kakashi decided taking in his disheveled look. Iruka had stripped out of his vest at some point; it was currently lying on the floor behind him. This left him wearing his dark shirt that had the sleeves pushed up above his elbows, and dark pants. His hitai-ate rested around his neck, having slipped down from where he normally wore it. Iruka was usually well groomed. Right now his shoulder length hair that he normally kept pulled up in a pony tail on top of his head, had sagged down until it now sat low on the back of his head near his neck. Some of his hair had escaped its band and was hanging around his face and down his neck.

In Kakashi�s opinion, the Chuunin instructor was looking cuter by the second. With his visible eye half-hooded, Kakashi allowed himself that particular look he knew would make Iruka blush when he saw him. Pushing open the door Kakashi lead the way, with Jiraiya and the two boys trailing after him.

"Yo." He called out startling Iruka. As their eyes locked just as predicted Iruka took one look at him and blushed. 'He's just so cute.' Kakashi decided, squinting his visible eye and smiling through his mask at him. Seeing Kakashi had brought visitors with him Iruka tried valiantly to reign in his blush and make himself presentable again. "What brings you here Kakashi-sensei?" Iruka inquired pushing his hair out of his face.

From between the two men Naruto pushed his head out. "Hello Iruka-sensei, long time no see huh?" Naruto greeted him waving while sandwiched between the older men. One look at Naruto's smiling face was all it took for Iruka to barrel over his desk, papers scattering in his wake as he made his way up to them pushing the two men out of his way. Grabbing hold of the boy that he saw almost as a son, he inspected him for any signs of injury and began inquiring on his health and such.

Regaining his balance after being shoved for the second time that day Jiraiya huffed crossing his arms over his chest he moved to stand by Kakashi who had leaned himself against the back wall of the lecture hall. "It's getting where a pervert can't get a break around here." Kakashi shrugged more or less agreeing with the Sennin, seeing as he had been thrown aside by Iruka for Naruto. "It seems everyone is very excited to have Naruto back, or does the boy always get this kind of attention?" He questioned Jiraiya.

The hermit smirked, nodding in agreement. "You might as well get use to it Kakashi, this actually isn't a rarity, I'll warn you now." Straightening up a bit now that his interest had been peeked, Kakashi rolled his hand for the older man to continue. Closing his eyes as if remembering a pleasant experience Jiraiya continued.

"He gets attention wherever he goes, it can work in your favor if you allow it to Kakashi. The ladies just went wild over him." Chancing a glance over to Iruka, Kakashi bit his lip when he saw the protective teacher's shoulders tense at the perverted hermit's comments. Wondering how far he could push this, Kakashi decided to continue for a bit "Really? Why is that? Jiraiya-sama, has your tutoring also included teaching him to be a lady�s man like yourself?" Kakashi could see the tension flowing off the Chuunin teacher in waves. Jiraiya laughs rubbing the back of his neck. "Ho, ho so my reputation recedes me, does it? Well I have tried to make sure the boy had a well-rounded education." Jiraiya explained with a lusty look in his eyes while making a very lewd movement with his hands as if feeling the shape of someone�s hips and butt, and then grabbing "if you know what I mean."

The two confessed perverts stopped their conversation when the sudden feeling of killing intent was felt rising from near them. Looking up they noticed that somehow the normally quiet, friendly Iruka had approached them unnoticed. He stood behind them with his head bowed, casting dark shadows around his eyes giving him the look of a deranged killer. "Am I to understand that you took Naruto into Tea Houses that provided female entertainment with you Jiraiya-sama?" Iruka's all too calm voice asked. Clearing the sudden lump in his throat Jiraiya nodded to the young teacher. "Yes. . .the ladies just went wild over the boy. He's such a cute little chibi they couldn't resist mothering him." The old hermit explained trying to comprehend why he had that same feeling he got when Tsunade was about to pound him from this normally sweet Chuunin.

"Ero Sennin don't call me a chibi. It's not my fault I don't look my age." Naruto hollered stomping his foot for good measure at the whole injustice of not aging. Naruto's commotion diverted Iruka's attention for the moment. �Oh, so it was just recently that he started taking you into these shady tea houses Naruto?� Stopping his tirade Naruto crossed his hands over his chest huffing. "Are you kidding? That pervert's been taking me in them since I was 12. The only good thing is they have soft beds and good food." Naruto wasn't sure why, but Iruka looked as if he was going to blow something if he got any redder. Jerking his head in Jiraiya's direction, he went on to explain. "The only bad thing was having to watch this fool getting drunk on sake and fondling the women." Grabbing his throat while he made gagging noises Naruto closed his eyes shivering at the memories. "It's a wonder I'm not traumatized." Naruto opened his eyes in time to watch Kakashi wrap his arms around Iruka's waist.

"Whoa there Iruka." Kakashi chuckled raising the smaller man up off the ground as he made an attempt to grab hold of Jiraiya's sleeve, luckily for the Sennin his sense of self-preservation was very high, and he had stepped back out of range. Naruto cocked his head to the side watching Iruka twisting in Kakashi's grip. "You promised Naruto was safe with this guy Kakashi, I'm holding you responsible for any damage done to that boy." Kakashi sighed at the threat. "Of course Naruto�s safe. Look at him, not a scratch on him." Iruka slumped in the taller man's grip making the Jounin smile slightly under his mask as he placed the younger man back down. Turning to face the silver-haired man behind him Iruka asked. "You don't find anything wrong with Jiraiya taking Naruto into a tea house to use him as bait to attract women?"

Naruto stopped the argument that was building by putting his past academy teacher at ease the best he could. "Don't worry Iruka-sensei; the ladies were all really nice to me. They made sure I was well fed, had a bath, clean clothes, and even a warm bed to sleep in. Most of them are really motherly being they don't have families of their own. Besides it's not like I haven't seen a naked person before, you even took me to the public bath before. It's just kind of a shock when you're asleep and some guy barges in with his pants down showing off his hairy ass."

Jiraiya was suddenly beside him patting him on the head, stopping his explanation. Somehow the Sennin had made his way over to him without anyone noticing. "All right Naruto, you don't want to paint Iruka too good of a picture. He'll be haunted by the image." Giving a little shiver of disgust Naruto agreed. "That's true, nothing worse then having a mental image you can't get rid of."

Sasuke�s grunting gathered everyone's attention; the boy had a disgusted look on his face. "Ooops . . . . " Naruto said chuckling at his friend�s expression. "I guess Sasuke already got that mental image." Shaking his head to dispel what his imagination had provided to him. Sasuke shuddered a bit; it had always been like that. Naruto would talk about something and before he knew it he'd have an image in his head. "Thanks a lot, dobe." He replied raising one side of his lip up in a snarl. Pouting, Naruto yelled back at him. "I've already told you, don't call me that."

Sharingan: copy wheel eye (Doujutsu-bloodline limit of Uchiha clan) capability to read and defeat all types of Nin, Tai, and Genjutsu can copy almost any technique seen.

Omocha Ryuu no Jujutsu: This is something I made up, basically it translates this way; Omocha: toy, Ryuu: dragon, Jujutsu: magic, sorcery, incantation. So together it would be toy dragon magic. (This would be a skill Naruto learned from the kitsunes, it would be considered a Hijutsu because normal humans would be unable to copy it nor would someone with the Sharingan be able to copy; it's kitsune magic.)

Kyouninnin no Jujutsu Yajuu: Same as above, basically translates to: beast using magic of human fears or putting it more clearly, in the form of a beast using magic to use a human's fears against them. Give or take a word. Kyou: evil, fear. Ninnin: person. Jujutsu: magic, sorcery, incantation. Yajuu: beast as in wild animal or monster. If someone who has more knowledge of the Japanese language wants to give me a better translation then it would be welcomed.

Henge: transformation skill

Kinjutsu: forbidden skills that can pose serious harm to the user or are inhumane in nature

Hijutsu: secret skills that can be limited to a certain individual or an advanced bloodline like a blood line trait

Gamakichi: young son of Gamabunta (Naruto calls Gamabunta 'boss') vol. 15 ch 134 Gamabunta agrees to allow Naruto into the family of frogs making him his underling when he is old enough to perform the sake ceremony with him. It is through this idea I've made the frogs have a more involved relationship with Naruto in the story.

Gamayuu: Name I have given to the large frog that helps Jiraiya in the bath house. Japanese; Gama-frog, Yuu-superior or gentle.

Noriko: Japanese means: doctrine; child of ceremony, law, order (female kitsune youkai retainer)

Yasuo: Japanese menas: peaceful one (male kitsune youkai retainer)

kitsune: fox

usuratonkachi: total moron (Sasuke's pet name for Naruto)

nee-chan: elder sister

nii-san: older brother
