"Hai, Hokage-sama," Kakashi states as Naruto warily adds, "Hai."
Turning to Naruto, the strongest shinobi in Konoha demands to know, "Naruto-kun, how is it that you learned the technique known as Rasengan?"
Growing less nervous, Naruto answers, "um, well, I don't know how best to explain it, but, um, when I fought Mizuki-sensei, I went into the seal at least I think that's what it was. It was dark and weird. I was in this giant room when I heard a voice.
It told not to pull the seal and then told I should get stronger. It gave three tasks that turned out to be the three steps to learning Rasengan."
Hiruzen eyes Kakashi for a split second before his analytical observation focuses on Naruto again to ask, "this voice, did you see the face it belonged too?"
"No," Naruto answers honestly. "Just the voice in the room."
"Was there anything else in the room," the Hokage asks.
"Hell yeah," Naruto admits. "A bigass gate with a huge red fox behind it who's a bit of a dick."
"So you've spoken to the Kybi," Kakashi asks.
"Yeah," Naruto answers. "But like I said, total dick. 'Wretched humans this,' 'Greatest of the bij that.' I just tune him out."
"And it was responsible for the red chakra witnessed," Hiruzen asks.
"Do I look like a charity, Ji-chan? His chakra's the rent he owes for staying in my body," Naruto proclaims.
Hiruzen turns to the head Jnin and commands, "Kakashi, make sure your students are aware to never reveal anything about his red chakra shroud. This mission and its details are never to be spoken of again."
"Hai, Hokage-sama," Kakashi confirms.
Turning to Naruto, Hiruzen asks with more softness in his voice, "is there anything else the voice told you?"
"Mmnnn," Naruto hums, scratching his smooth chin. On the way back from their mission, the future and present Narutos had discussed the likely outco of using Rasengan in public.
Naru-nii agreed it was the right call to use the technique so they set their minds to trying to answer what they thought the likely questions would be. They agreed to use the sa idea they used with Kurenai on others, but Naru-nii thought there could be an opportunity for more.
'More what,' Naruto asked his older self as Team Seven plus Haku travel through the trees from branch to branch.
'Well, you're getting closer to the second part of mastering your nature manipulation and I learned it using the help of another shinobi nad Yamato, but I can't think of a way you could et him and ask for his help without causing a ruckus.'
'Why did he teach you?' Naruto asked.
'Kakashi-sensei thought he could help train and asked for an assist.'
'Do you think we can make him do that again?'
'Who knows,' Naru-nii freely admitted. 'I suppose if they know that you're ready for that, they might ask him. Since I had to learn it in days with thousands of clones, Kakashi felt he needed Yamato-taichou because he can do Wood-Release jutsu and that helps negate Kurama's influence over us.
You have more ti to take it slower so maybe they won't need him.'
'Kurama ntioned once how much he hates wood-release,' Naruto ntally chuckled, thinking how pleased The Demon Fox was with 'his human' when Naruto told him they were headed back to Konoha.
'Yeah,' Naru-nii agreed. 'Let's just go for it and see what happens. Even if we don't get to et Yamato-taichou, we'll figure out another way.'
In the now fully secure office of the Hokage, facing the esteed God of Shinobi, Naruto snaps his fingers and goes for it. "Oh, the voice ntioned sothing about perfecting it."
Taken aback, the Hokage repeats, "perfecting it? You an to say the Rasengan is an incomplete jutsu?"
"Uh, I guess," Naruto shrugs. "I'm still working on it so I can't say for sure."
"How," the Hokage asks, keenly interested. "How are you trying to perfect it?"
"Duh, with more training," Naruto states. "I learned I have an affinity for Fton chakra, so I thought I'd combine them."
"Kakashi," Hiruzen sternly commands.
"Hai, Hokage-sama," Kakashi states, understanding his Hokage's unspoken directive.
But Naruto doesn't, promptly asking, "what?"
"Kakashi will be assisting your training," Hiruzen answers the boy.
"Oh, now you want to train ," Naruto bellows incredulously. "Are you sure your precious Uchiha can spare you?"
"Naruto," Hiruzen calls sternly and Naruto buckles, hardly ever hearing Ji-chan talk to him like that. "This is important! It's simply amazing one so young would learn the Rasengan, a technique that took the fourth Hokage years to master.
Adding to that, it's also an incomplete jutsu that sohow you intend to add Fton chakra to is simply astounding! For the good of this village, this is a top priority."
Crossing his arms, Naruto grumbles under the old man's stern admonishing.
"You don't seem surprised," Kakashi points out, looking closely at Naruto. "This is a technique developed by the fourth Hokage and that doesn't excite you as I would have expected."
The Hokage stands at his full height, looking down at Naruto and sternly asking, "did you know?"
The Narutos hadn't planned on this. Panicking for more seconds then he felt allowed, Naruto goes with the only explanation he can think of, "yeah, well K-Kurenai-sensei told ."
Both n are surprised by the admission.
While the Third Hokage commands no one visible, "bring Yhi Kurenai here at once," as Kakashi asks, "you showed her?" Though the Hokage seems more interested in another point, asking the elite Jnin, "why does Kurenai-kun know more of your student's techniques than you do, Kakashi?"
"Hey, let's get one thing straight here," Naruto calls out over both adults. He turns and points to Kakashi, stating, "you were too busy with the te to help , so, while I was helping Kurenai-chan, I asked if she could teach so stuff.
She said she wasn't supposed to because of so stupid rules I don't rember, but she was still nice enough to give so cool scrolls and even a field pack since my gear was so old. So, yeah, I showed her. That's when she told it was the Fourth's technique."
Both n are silenced until the Kageknowing the blond rather wellwarily inquires, "and did you tell her how you learned it?"
Nervously, a wilting Naruto answers with a pitiful chuckle, " Well, she asked"
"Kakashi," the Hokage interrupts.
"Hai, Hokage-sama," Kakashi responds, understanding his commander's unasked instruction.
