47 Chapter 47: Training

Naruto told Jiraiya what his plan was which shocked Jiraiya a bit, Jiraiya was unaware that Naruto was practically a sealing master, so he tested him and gave him an official sealing master title, which was also put on his shinobi registration card and was put into his official files.

Naruto also got a class for it, called; Sealing Master.

[Sealing master

Rarity: Epic

Description: This title is granted to those that are considered to be masters of sealing, if you have this title you may grant someone else the opportunity to receive the title as well.

All seals are strengthened by 25%.

You master seals faster and understand Fuinjutsu theory easier.

You can create seals 50% faster.]

Other than that the two sparred quite a bit, Naruto used his full strength but didn't even manage to hit Jiraiya so Jiraiya trained him in Taijutsu mostly.

The most important thing that he learned though was a specific jutsu.

Namely; the Shadow Clone Jutsu.

[Shadow Clone Jutsu

Rank: B

Description: Shadow Clones are a much better version of the normal clone jutsu, these clones are made of solid chakra and can perform any task they are assigned, the user splits their chakra evenly across all clones which makes it dangerous if the user has low amounts of chakra, all memories are shared between clones.

Requirement: splits chakra evenly.]

Naruto was extremely surprised by this jutsu, the clones created by it are exactly identical to the creator and get the same chakra signature, which meant that Naruto would be able to override Kisame chakra signature from Samehada far faster than before, the only problem was their durability, Samehada thrashed around a lot so the clones that Naruto created would often be broken so he decided to have the clones train in Fuinjutsu, Taijutsu, Kenjutsu, Shurikenjutsu, and even Genjutsu, which Naruto was horrible at.

Naruto did some tests and was both surprised and disappointed.

Any EXP gained by the clone would not be brought over unless it was EXP for a skill like Fuinjutsu, for example, if the clone killed a zombie it would receive a hundred EXP but Naruto wouldn't which made his plans for AFK farming impossible, but again he was still happy as his skills still received EXP from it, which he used to max out a few skills.

After 2 weeks of mostly focusing on Samehada Naruto managed to finally erase all traces of Kisame from it, the second he did Samehada calmed down and Naruto slowly started engraining his own chakra signature into Samehada, since Samehada had calmed down Naruto made a legion of clones that would constantly pump chakra into Samehada, this would make it so Samehada wouldn't be able to get stolen by someone else, and since Samehada could store chakra and give to its user Naruto would have a steady supply of over 50 million chakra to refill his reserves with if he ever ran low.

Since Naruto was now Samehada's owner he decided to carry it with him, it looked quite weird since the sword was 1.8 meters long when wrapped in bandages and Naruto was only 1 meter and 68 centimeters, while he was only 12 years old and much taller than his peers it still looked a bit too large to be wielded by someone his size, but the size and weight didn't bother Naruto at all, it was almost like he was meant to fight with Samehada.

The first time he used it against Jiraiya, Jiraiya was quite surprised.

He had heard that Kisame's sword was stolen by someone, the person had even received a 500 thousand Ryo bounty on their head by Kisame himself, which was steadily increasing as time went by now it was around 1.4 million Ryo if Jiraiya remembered right, but to think that it was Naruto that stole it? Jiraiya was shocked.

But he had to quickly get over his shock as Samehada had almost shredded his head off.

Naruto seemingly grew stronger when he fought with Samehada, his attacks flowed like water as he used whirlpool-like movements to attack with Samehada, his Kenjutsu looked like a beautiful and deadly dance that would kill anyone unfortunate enough to be targeted by it.

Their training progressed smoothly, Naruto's skills grew by the day and he incorporated the usage of clones and the Rasengan into his fighting style, he felt like the Rasengan could be used in different ways but a month wouldn't be enough to figure out many different ways of using the Rasengan.

Time passed quickly and the time for the Chunin Exam Finals had arrived.

Team 9 looked very different, while their outfits were mostly the same as before the strength they radiated was much higher than before, all of them had surpassed the ranks of Chunin, now they simply needed to prove themselves to the world and to their village, but Naruto believed that all three of them would manage to become Chunin successfully.

"Yo, Shino, Naruto!" Sasuke greeted Naruto, they had barely met the past month so he was happy to see Naruto again.

"Hello there, Sasuke, Naruto." Shino greeted back coolly.

Naruto chuckled, "What's up guys, I see we've all become stronger." Naruto grinned.

"Yeah we have, and you seem to have gained control over Samehada," Shino said while Sasuke nodded along.

Naruto sighed "Yeah it took me a long time to remove Kisame's chakra signature from it but it was very worth it." he said with a smile.

Before they could continue talking a cloud of smoke ran towards them, with various different shouts about youth, Guy appeared before them.

"Hello there! My youthful students, it is good to see that all three of you seem more youthful than before! But remember, one can never be too youthful!" Guy shouted at them with a grin.

"Hello to you too, sensei." The three of them greeted in unison.

"Well, what are we waiting for? let's make this youthful journey to Sunagakure quick!" Guy shouted as he ran past the gates of Konoha.

The three chuckled as they shunshined after Guy.
