39 Finding Tsunade

It didn't take long for Jiraiya and Naruto to reach the next town, "Naruto, follow me and watch how to get information, this is a very valuable skill as a ninja." Naruto nodded, "Alright," he didn't mind this, in the future it could definitely come in handy.

Suddenly a stunning girl with long black hair walked past them looking at Jiraiya, Jiraiya started moving his fingers wildly, even Naruto had to admit she was very pretty. "Heheheh, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, she wants me!" Jiraiya was jumping around like a lunatic.

Jiraiya then took out a key, "This is the key to the room, I want you to go there and train then go to sleep, ok be a good boy." "I thought you were going to teach me how to get information," said Naruto, disliking how pervy the new Hokage was.

After getting into the room he was going to train his body, he knew that Itachi was after him so he didn't want to leave by himself, he knew he couldn't beat Itachi. Jiraiya went with the girl to a bar, even if he was pervy he still knew how to get the ladies.

While Naruto was doing his pushups he heard a knock on the door, "Did she dump you already, how embarrassing." Naruto was about to open the door but he felt something was wrong, Naruto made a shadow clone and the real him hid behind the corner.

The shadow clone went to open the door, once he opened the door he saw two Sharingan look down on him, it was Itachi Uchiha. "It's hard to believe such a small child can hold the nine-tails," said Kisame. Naruto threw a punch at the fish but was blocked and threw away.

The real Naruto jumped out and used an unfinished jutsu he had been working on, "Giant Rasengan!" the Rasengan grew to a massive size taking up the whole hallway! The Rasengan kept growing and growing, destroying the walls on each side. It would have kept growing until the whole Rasengan was eaten by Samehada.

"Knowing such a good jutsu at such a good age, it seems we have a prodigy," Kisame said with a laugh. Naruto then summoned Gamabushi who blocked the next sword strike from Kisame. "Naruto you are coming with us," Itachi said calmly.

Kisame was about to attack again but Itachi stopped him, "It's been a long time since I last saw you, Jiraiya of the sannin." Jiraiya laughed, "It is I Jiraiya, the toad sage falls victim to no woman's charm. Rare beauty is dropped for me like blossoms in a storm. It isn't in my nature to be duped by the charm of a woman. When you reach the stature I have, the ladies kneel and worship at your awesomeness."

"We all know you're lying so just stop embarrassing yourself," said Naruto who was embarrassed by the leaf's own Hokage. "Master Jiraiya, I must say you're something of a disappointment. A lecherous old man with a child, it's almost impossible to believe you are one of the legendary sannin."

"You must be in one of Itachi's genjutsu if you see my amazing awesomeness with the ladies!" retorted Jiraiya, Naruto groaned, "We have bigger things to worry about you pervy bastard." Jiraiya then set the girl down, "I thought you were better Itachi, placing an innocent woman in a genjutsu all in order to catch Naruto, how rude."

"So you already know, the leaf sure is smarter now," said Itachi. "Yes we want Naruto, and we will have him." Jiraiya looked at them, "this is actually very good, now I can eliminate you both at the same time."

Naruto again created a giant Rasengan but the chakra was eaten by Samehada again. Naruto attacked Itachi with his chakra blades but was instantly slapped away, it really seems he had no chance against them. They were going to attack Naruto again until none of them could move.

"Ninja art, toad mouth trap." the whole area turned into what was the belly of a frog. Kisame tried to move but his feet were stuck, "You've both just been swallowed by the mountain toad. Welcome, my friends to the belly of a beast. He is very sensitive, make sure not to upset him, you wouldn't want to be eaten."

Naruto tried to move but Jiraiyacut him off, "Naruto, stay still just remain calm, trust my jutsu." Itachi looked back, "Kisame come, we are leaving." they then both began to run, "It's no use, no one has ever escaped this jutsu."

"Don't look now, but there is a mountain of flesh coming at us," said Kisame worried. Itachi wasted no time using Amaterasu to break the wall of flesh and escape. Jiraiya ran down to the end of the toad moth and saw the black flames burning.

"It seems they escaped." Naruto nodded, "Itachi isn't a person who can kill the Uchiha clan for nothing." he was indeed impressive even Jiraiya thought so. Naruto walked over to the flames, "What are these anyway?" Jiraiya yelled, "Get away! They are the black flames of hell said to be able to burn even heat itself."

Jiraiya then created a seal and sealed the flames. "Flame suppressant seal!" bright orange flames picked up and sealed the black flames. "I think that will keep them away for awhile," said Jiraiya. They then stayed a few more days there before leaving.

Before they left Naruto was working on a version of the Rasengan, the Rasengan barrage. He was going to create 2 Rasengans on each hand and either attack them both at once or one at a time. The hard part was creating the Rasengan on each hand as he usually used both hands to make it.

He had the idea of using shadow clones, which would work but he wanted to do it without clones so it would be faster but if needed he could use clones. On his last day before leaving Naruto was able to create a Rasengan on one hand, but only one he could create one on each hand, but it was still progress.

While Naruto was training with Rasengan barrage Jiraiya walked up to him, "we're leaving got information the Tsunade is in the next few towns over, pack your things" Naruto grabbed his things and they were off.

"Hey, how did you get the information?" Jiraiya nodded at the question, "The best place to get intelligence are bars, things slip out when you're drunk, things you don't want to say." Naruto nodded, he would remember this for the future.

Hey, I know most of you reading this don't comment on the chapters but it is appreciated when you do, I have friends who did this stuff and they agree, the chapter comments give the motivation to write more chapters. And as usual, this weekend will not have chapters because I will be gone again.

For a vs Battle how about Minato (Sage mode allowed) vs Alive Itachi (Healthy) who wins and why?
