A Family Of Foxes And Snakes

Chapter 27

“Hey, let me go you perverted old man!!” Naruto shouted. Currently, Jiraiya was carrying the blond via rooftops. Despite his struggling, the Sennin held on to the squirming blond with ease. He looked at the boy with annoyance.

“Would you stop moving around? I’ve all ready told you, I’m your new sensei. Many would be honored that I would even take the time out of my research to help them.” Jiraiya informed.

“Oh yeah, well I ain’t one of them. Besides, what could you teach me?” Naruto asked

“Something very big and destructive.” He said. He had gotten the idea from Sarutobi. He thought that it wouldn’t work but Naruto stopped squirming.

“Big and destructive?” Naruto asked with stars in his eyes. Jiraiya looked a little worried with that look he gave him. Maybe he better join in finding out if he was related to Anko.

The two were in a large area where there were a lot of trees. There was also a swimming hole that three women in bikinis were splashing around in. Jiraiya had a huge grin on his face and was ogling them. Naruto growled at him.

“Hey, we’re supposed to be training here?” Naruto growled. Jiraiya looked at him with no interest before turning back to the women at the swimming hole. Naruto sighed as he knew what he would have to do. “Oiroke no Jutsu!! (Sexy Technique)” Naruto called out. Jiraiya turned around to see a vision of his wildest dreams. In front of him, stood a very beautiful and very naked blond girl. She had blond hair that was tied in pig-tails.

Jiraiya was losing it at the form of this girl and reached out to touch her when she disappeared and was replaced by Naruto. He had a large grin on his face.

“Enjoy the show?” he asked

“What was that?” Jiraiya asked

“You mean my Oiroke no Jutsu? I created it some years ago. It mostly works on perverts. I’m surprise that you’re still standing.”

“Like I said, I’m a whole level of pervert.”

“Seriously, you need a hobby. Can we get on with the training?”

“All right, let’s get started. What do you know about the Kuchiyose no Jutsu? (Summoning Technique)”

Anko was sitting at her favorite tea shop eating dango and drink red bean soup. She was kind of bored because she had nothing to do and no one to torture. Her otouto seemed to disappear for two days. She knew that he must be training hard for his fight against Neji. She sighed and pouted at how bored she was. That’s when she saw her two best friends, Kurenai and Yuugao.

“Hey guys!” Anko called out. The two women saw her and decided to join her for some light conversation. They reached her table and ordered some tea. “So, who’s training with your brat going Kurenai?” asked Anko

“Shino is progressing however he is mostly training for Naruto. Apparently your mannerisms have worn off on the boy.” Kurenai explained

“Hey, that little show he put on at the prelims was not my idea. That was all him.” She said

“He probably got the idea from Ibiki.” Yuugao joked

“I wouldn’t be surprised if he did. He liked hanging with him when I introduced the two but it was mostly to piss him off. Ibiki doesn’t like the fact that Naruto isn’t scared of him.” Anko said. They talked some more about work, training and men. Yuugao talked about how close she and Hayate were getting while Anko teased Kurenai about Asuma. Speaking of men, Anko’s Iruka sense went off. She stood on the table and looked around. She spotted her target and took off like a bullet. It was too late for Iruka when Anko tackled him and pinned him to the ground. Kurenai sighed while Yuugao chuckled at the pair. The two stood up to stop their friend from publicly raping the academy teacher.

Naruto was getting frustrated with this damn technique. From what he gathered, you would need above jonin level chakra to perform such a technique. With the fur-ball in him, he had at least Kage level chakra. So far, he was only able to summon a tadpole and a small orange toad call Gamakichi. The two actually hit it off because of the fact they liked to get Jiraiya in trouble.

“Kuchiyose no Jutsu!!” Naruto shouted and slammed his palm down on the ground. There was a puff of smoke and appeared another toad. This one was also small but he was a pale yellow color.

“How you’re doing? My name is Gamatatsu.” He said

“Oh… that’s… just… great…” Naruto said before falling back, his eyes rolling in the back of his head. He hit the ground with a thud. Jiraiya turned to the sound and saw Gamatatsu trying to wake him up.

‘That’s impressive. In one day, he had managed to summon both of Gamabuta’s sons.’ He thought. Jiraiya stood up and walked over to the two. Gamatatsu looked up to see Jiraiya.

“Hiya Jiraiya.” Gamatatsu greeted

“Hey Gamatatsu, you should go back home now. I’ll take care of the kid.” Jiraiya said. Gamatatsu nodded and disappeared in a puff of smoke. Jiraiya lifted the kid and carried him on his shoulder.

‘You’re becoming very interesting Naruto.’

Jiraiya entered Naruto’s apartment through his window. He placed the young blond in his bed to allow him to rest after his exercise. He straightens up and suddenly felt something pointy in his back. He knew it was a kunai but he wasn’t too scary until he heard a familiar voice.

“I don’t know what you just did to my otouto but he better be healthy. If he isn’t, I will make you pay nice and slow.” The female said

“You must be Anko. Don’t worry about the kid; he’s just exhausted after his day of training.” Jiraiya informed. He felt the kunai dig a little in his back.

“Don’t screw with me. I know that jackass Kakashi handed him off to Ebisu. Now start talking, what did you do to Naruto?” Suddenly another person entered the apartment.

“Anko, wait a minute. Do you know who you’re threatening?” Ebisu said. Anko gave him a look. “That’s Lord Jiraiya!!”

“Jiraiya? The fourth Hokage’s teacher, Jiraiya?” she asked in awe. She backed off the white haired man and allowed him to turn around. When he did, she quickly frowned at him. “You’re that pervert.”

“Yes I am but if you must know your otouto told me about that secret spring.” Jiraiya said

“The secret spring? You don’t mean THE secret spring?” Ebisu asked with a bit of drool. Anko laid him out with a punch to the jaw. She turned her attention back to the only loyal Sennin.

“Ok, so why are you training him?” she asked

“Well, the kid is quite interesting. You’ve trained him so well that I decided to teach him how to use that other chakra of his.”

“Good luck with that. He’s been afraid to use that chakra ever since his C-rank turned A-rank mission.” Anko went into what Naruto had told her. Jiraiya listened and could understand where Naruto was coming from but Naruto needed to learn how to use that chakra if he even had a chance at the trails that he would be facing soon.

“All right, I’ll try to talk to him about it.” Jiraiya said. He walked pass her and opened back the window. He turned back toward Anko who was tucking him in. “You know, I never use to trust you because of Orochimaru. Yet, you’ve proven that you are even better than even me. I’m glad that he has found you as one of his most treasured people.” Jiraiya turned and left, leaving Anko very confused yet very happy.

Jiraiya had to admit that Naruto was one really interesting kid. Two weeks into the summoning technique training, Naruto was able to summon human-size toads. That made five toads him could summon. There were Gamakichi, Gamatatsu, Gamaichi, Gamatousen and his younger brother, Gamaren. It was great how far Naruto had come and he was able to do all this without the Kyuubi’s chakra. Yet, that was the problem. When he first approached the subject with Naruto, the blond told him off and refused to use the Kyuubi’s chakra. Training ended early that day and Jiraiya went in search of Anko. He had managed to find her and the two talked. Anko revealed much more about that mission and he could understand Naruto’s reluctance to use its chakra. However, Naruto would need the Kyuubi’s chakra if he ever faced off against them.

“Hey Naruto, come here for a second.” He called our. Naruto sent his friends back to the summoning plane and walked over to Jiraiya.

“What’s up Ero-sennin?” Naruto asked

“You little punk, stop calling me that!” Jiraiya shouted

“Stop acting like one and I might consider it. What did you call me for?”

“Despite your disrespect, I’ve got to give it to you. You’ve done well with this training.” Naruto grinned and scratched the back of his head at the praise. “However,” Jiraiya suddenly said which caused Naruto to look at him. He never saw it coming as Jiraiya moved with incredible speed and punched Naruto in the gut. The boy hit the ground with a thud and Jiraiya sighed. ‘I hope you forgive me Minato but this must be done.’

Naruto opened his eyes and groaned. He clutched his gut and stood up slowly. He looked around and noticed that he was no longer at the river.

“So, had a nice nap?” asked a voice. Naruto spun around to see Jiraiya standing there with a smile. Naruto charged him, remembering what he did to him. Jiraiya ducked the charged and put his whole hand on his chest. “Sorry about this Naruto but you need to get over this.” He whispered and he threw Naruto clear across the clearing and off a cliff. Naruto looked down and yelled as he plummeted into the dark valley of spikes. He tried to use his chakra to stick to the walls but at his speed and the slippery edges he couldn’t do it. He didn’t think that any of the toads he knew how to summon would be able to help him either.

‘This is really it. I’m really going to die. I am so going to haunt that old pervert until he gets a heart attack.’ Suddenly everything went white. Naruto ended up in what looked like a dark sewer. He wondered where he was before he felt a very strong and very evil chakra. He walked toward it the feeling. It got stronger as he when down one of the corridors. When he came to the end of the corridor, he was greeted to a large gate. There was a paper that seemed to hold the gate closed. That was impossible that such a seal would keep such a gate close. He stood in front of the gate and examined it from a distance. That’s when two large eyes and rows of very sharp fangs appeared. Naruto back-up a bit and went for a kunai but he couldn’t find it.

“I’M AMUSSED BY YOUR COURAGE BOY BUT YOU WILL FIND IT HARD TO GET YOUR WEAPONS IN YOUR MIND!” a sinister voice said. Naruto looked at him in confusion.

“In my mind, what the hell is going on? Where the hell is this? Who the bloody hell are you?” Naruto shouted. The voice chuckled darkly before erupting in thunderous laughter.

“THAT SNAKE WOMAN HAS BEEN QUITE AN INFLUENCE ON YOU HASN’T SHE?” the voice said with humor. Naruto glared at red eyes behind the gate which caused more chuckling. “I’LL HUMOR YOU. TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS IN ORDER, YOU’RE ABOUT TO DIE, YOU’RE IN YOUR SUB-CONSICOUS AND AS FOR ME, I AM THE KYUUBI NO YOKO. FINALLY WE MEET, UZUMAKI NARUTO.” Naruto just gave him a very dumb look.

Authors’ Notes: Sorry if this is short but I felt that this was a good place to end the chapter. Hope you enjoy it.
