Naruto, The Perfect Shinobi

I finished this chapter a bit early, hope you all enjoy.

Time-skip; two years and ten months later;

Well the inevitable happen and the third shinobi war is at full swing for a little more than 2 years. The war happened due to the gradual decrease in the Great nations power due to repeated clashes on their border which eventually turned to a full blown out war. The main theme of the war was mostly between Konoha trying to defend the borders of the land of fire and the other four great nations trying to explain in each other's territory especially wanting to expand to the resource rich land of fire. Even though Konoha has a high quantity and quality of shinobi, defending the land of fire from all sides is still exhausting for resources and man power.

Meanwhile in the senju home inthe fire capital;

In the back garden overlooking the large forest in the back of the house we find Tsunade training her 4 years old son in the uses of chakra.

I has been 2 years and 10 months since she told her sensei about Naruto and she had been teaching him ever since. Through out the years the pride Tsunade was feeling about her son increase continously. Before even unlocking his chakra naruto was and still is a very smart, curious and bright boy. He liked to learn new things and explore. He always likes to explore the forest outside his home or watch what ever his mother does. Then at night he likes to sit down and read for the many books inside the huge library inside the house.

As Tsunade watch her son train she could stop thinking about how her baby boy is growing up. To her, her son is growing up and maturing way too fast. He takes his training and studying seriously unlike other children his age. She sometimes feels sad and guilty about not being able to make him meet children his age. That wasn't a problem for Naruto though as he had a very cautious nature. How he got this nature?, that his mother was puzzled about. One time when they went out to get their daily needs (Tsunade is under transformation jutsu so no one can identify her), a disguised Tsunade watched as her little boy was always vigilant and aware of his surroundings. When they returned home she asked him about that. He told her: " I read in a book that in this world especially in war every unknown person is potentially an enemy until he/she prove otherwise".

This response a little heart breaking to Tsunade. To her being vigilant is always a good thing but for her baby 4 year boy to grow up and mature so fast that he started to lookout for his and her safety is a little heart breaking to her.

Tsunade thought back about a month ago on Naruto's 4th birthday when she opened his chakra path ways. She took him to the garden outside the house after celebrating his birthday with his father. After Minato left she taught him the process of unlocking chakra and guided him through it.

When he unlocked it, it surprised Tsunade. She wasn't surprised by the quantity of his chakra even though it was a little higher that what she expected, he is a senju after all. What surprised her was the quality of his chakra. Naruto chakra felt so dense, pure and heavy that the colour of his chakra was more of a purple than the usual blue. She was afraid that he would have difficulty trying to control his chakra due to its quantity and density but to her delight he inherited her high chakra control.

Tsunade was taken out of her though when she heard some animals enter the garden and approached her son. Usually a mother would freak out and bring her son inside but to Tsunade this was a usual thing. At first it astonished Tsunade that her then 2 years old son would go to the forest near the garden and play with the different wildlife there. They were mostly not dangerous animals like birds and squirrels. But after he unlocked his chakra, Tsunade's astonishment increased as Other wildlife started to appear like dears, foxes with their kits, snakes, monkeys, a mama bear and her cubs and a silver back gorilla and her child. Tsunade always thought her son had a special bond with animals but this variety of animals astonished her. The older animals always treat him as their child while naruto plays with their offsprings. Tsunade always have a good laugh when naruto wrestle the baby silver back or the bear cubs. It always gave naruto encouragement to train his body more so he wouldn't lose to them.

Naruto's bond with these animals also made him want to be a doctor like his mother. This came from when ever he went outside he sometimes came back with an injured animal. Watching his mother heal them always peaked his interest to be like his mom.

As for Minato he comes once every six months or if there is a special occasion like him having a vacation or Naruto's birthday. When he is around he brings gifts and books to naruto and spends almost of all his free time with him.

For Naruto's training, he expressed to his mother that he wants to be an all around shinobi. So with the help of his mother he made a schedule to learn everything he was currently interested in. Naruto is highly interested in ninjutsu, genjutsu, taijutsu, medical jutsu, kenjutsu and fuinjutsu.

For now Tsunade taught him alot of academic skills, medicine, laws, politics and mathematics. On the physical side she made him a training regime that will make him grow stronger without having bad effects. She also taught him simple senju style taijutsu katas and simple jutsu for now like replacement, transformation and clone jutsu. She also taught him shadow clone as he has the chakra capacity for a few of them. She have also given him a chakra paper to Identify his chakra natures, the reaction of the paper made Tsunade feel surprised and happy as the paper showed that her son had a very strong afinity to all chakra natures. But learning elemental jutsu will wait for two years.

As for genjutsu, kenjutsu and fuinjutsu naruto would read and practice from the notes that his great-grandmother and great-granduncle wrote as his mother didn't have much information about them.

Time-skip; about seven month later on Tsunade's birthday August 2nd;

Today was Tsunade's birthday and she was celebrating it with her son who will become 5 years old in about two months. Minato has sent her an expensive sake bottle as a present couple days earlier as he was busy and to not arouse suspension. It was a thoughtful gift even though Tsunade quit her heavy drinking after getting pregnant with naruto, she still enjoys a little bit from time to time without ever getting intoxicated or drunk.

After a small celebration with some food, cake and fruit drinks. Naruto said to his mom: "hey mom I have a present for you I will go get it".

Tsunade smiled at her child and said: "it is very kind of you honey you shouldn't have".

Naruto smiled brightly at his mother and said "it wasn't that difficult mom, I just wanted to give you your first present from me on your birthday". He then took off running to get his mom's present.

Tsunade continued to drink her juice while waiting for her son to come back. After sometime naruto came back with a relatively large tree pot, inside was the most beautiful and vibrant small cherry blossom tree Tsunade has ever seen.

Naruto put the pot in front of his mom and said happily with a bright smile: "Happy birthday mommy". Although Tsunade loved the gift, she was confused about how could her son bring a blooming cherry blossom tree. Cherry blossom blooms from March throughout to the end of April, so how could he get a vibrant pink, blooming cherry blossom tree in August.

Tsunade then said: "That a beautiful gift honey, I love it. Where did you get it?" She asked quite intrigued.

Naruto said: "I didn't buy it. I planted it myself". He looked proud of himself.

Now Tsunade is more confused, she asked: " when did you plant it? And how did you get it to bloom?"

Naruto said simply: "I planted it yesterday. I planted the seed and feed it my chakra like from what I read about great-grandfather Hashirama".

Tsunade couldn't believe her ears. She looked ar the small tree in front of her in astonishment and could only say while looking at naruto: "show me"

Naruto nodded and said: "OK, but come with me to the garden there is another surprise. I can show you how I grew the tree there as I am only putting the final touch".

Tsunade followed naruto to a hidden section of the garden where she was amazed to find it full of fruit trees like mangos, apples, oranges and many more. Many of them weren't even in season. While Tsunade look at the trees in astonishment. Naruto went to the nearby shed and came back with one seed and showed it to his mom. It was a peach seed.

Naruto looked happy at his mom and said: "this is the last tree I want to plant"

Under his mother astonished glaze he went to a clear peice of land between the fruit tree and plant the seed then he started to feed it with is chakra.

Right in front of Tsunade a peach saplings grew so fast into a fully grown tree and even held fully ripe peachs.

Tsunade walk slowly to the peach tree while deep in though. She now is sure that her son inherited her grandfather's bloodline, the wood release. For many this is the most powerful bloodline that even enabled her grandfather to keep the 5 great nations in peace.

Tsunade reached and took a peach from the tree and took a bite. She was momentarily stunted on how delicious its. For her this is the best peach she ever tasted.

She turned around and asked her son: "why did you make this garden naruto?"

Naruto gave her a smile and said: "you and I enjoy eating fruits but most of them are seasonal, but now we can eat what we want all year long".

Tsunade smiled at her son and bend down to be at his height and planted a kiss on his forehead and said: "That is very sweet of you baby but I need you to promise me something".

Naruto look at her curiously and asked: "promise you what mom?"

Tsunade look at him seriously and said: "promise me not tell any one about you ability, people will seek to hurt you if the find out".

Naruto nodded and said: " OK mom, I promise. But what about dad".

Tsunade then said: "Don't worry about it I will tell him myself".

Naruto nodded.

Following that day naruto return to training and learning with Tsunade guiding him along the way.

Time-skip; about a week after Naruto's 5th birthday;

Early in the morning, we find Tsunade sitting in front of her garden sipping tea while watching her son training, he is swinging his wooden sword she got him for his fifth birthday. His father also came by to spend the day with him and brought him some gifts as well. Sadly his father had to leave in the same day as the war is still in full swing.

As Tsunade was sipping her tea she saw two of the monkeys ,that usually play with her son, chasing each other and accidentally pumped into naruto interrupting his training. The whole garden came to a stop and sudden quietness became deafening. Tsunade chucked quietly to herself thinking about what is coming to the monkeys. Her son Naruto is usually cold, calm and calculative most of the time and with strangers, this part of his personality reminds her of her grand-uncle Tobirama. But unlike Tobirama, Naruto has a happy, joking, sometimes goofy side which he reserves for people he love or trust which as of right now is only her and his dad.

(Naruto hasn't seen Hiruzen again since he was 1 year and 3 months old due to Hiruzen being the Hokage of Konoha during the middle of a war.😅 )

This part of his personality she thinks he inherited it from his great-grandfather although not as comical. She sighed at every time she remembers how comically goofy her grandfather was.

Lastly Naruto rarely gets angry, but when he gets angry his surroundings becomes chilly and cold as if everything is afraid of what anger he might unleash. He even has the scary calm smile like her grandmother when she becomes pissed off about something Hashirama did. Tsunade shivered remember the first time her son wore that terrifying smile was when one of the monkeys dropped some fruit pulp on a book he was reading. The poor monkey needed to be treated by her and rest after that for a week. Her son inherited her monstrous strength all right.

Tsunade's focus returned on the two now shivering monkeys as they took of running with her son running after them with his wooden sword in hand. Her boy doesn't like being interrupted while reading, training or studying. Only she can interrupt him, any other one will face his anger.

While Tsunade was watching naruto chase the monkeys she suddenly saw two golden chains come out his back and in a blink of an eye and capturing the two monkeys and slowly bring the to naruto who proceeded to give each of them a hit with his fist to each of their head.

This scene surprised Tsunade but not as much him having the wood release but she was pleased that her son has another bloodline ability to protect himself in the future. Returning her attention to the current, she wasn't feeling like treating the monkeys again, she was about to call her son to let them go when she noticed that the monkeys was shivering in fright more that before. Thinking that naruto was giving them the calm smile of death, as she was facing his back, she called ro him: " Naruto honey you can let go now, they learned their lesson and I need to take to you about your chains. Also I don't want to heal them again".

Naruto sighed helplessly then turned around and looked at his mother and said: " OK mom, I will just hit their head again for reassurance". As naruto turned back to the lucky but frightened monkeys he heard a cup fall and smash on the ground promoting him to look at his mother again only to find her looking at him extremely pale with wide shocked eyes. This greatly worried him making him let the monkeys go and approach his mother quickly while asking her worriedly: "mom are you OK?"

Tsunade felt as if the world came crashing on her as her tea cup fell from her hand. When her son turned to look at her, his usual beautiful sapphire blue eyes was absent replaced by a familiar, yet to her is extremely out of place, two sinister slightly glowing red eyes with a single tomoe in each one. Tsunade's felt her core shake as she saw her son approach her with his still red eyes but now they lost their sinister vibe and now is looking at her with a concerned and worried impression which looked bizarre on these eyes.

The Sharingan, the bloodline of the Uchiha clan which was the long time enemy of her Senju clan before the formation of Konoha. How can her son have those eyes?

She was taken out of her shock when she heard the worried question from her son who was now in front of her. She looked at him and seeing those red eyes, that usually looked very sinister on Uchiha clansman, looking at her with such love, concern and worry made her calm down and feel much better, she took her son into her arms and cupped his face looking at him and gave him a reassuring smile before saying: " I am fine baby I am just surprised by your eyes that is all".

Naruto tilted his head cutely in her hand before saying: "what is wrong with them?"

Tsunade resisted the urge to just hug her cute child before saying: " before that honey, does your eyes feel any different?"

Naruto blinked a couple of times while looking around and said: "well, now that you mention it everything looks clearer and also moves slower. I can also see what I think is chakra in the air and in you."

Tsunade then pulled a mirror from beside her thst she used to style her hair and showed naruto his reflection which surprised him. She then proceeded to tell him what those were and help him to turn them off by telling him to stop feeding them chakra.

After Naruto's eyes returned to its usual sapphire blue he asked his mom: "how can I have these eyes mom?"

Tsunade replied to him by saying: "we will have to ask your father as you surely inherited them from his side of the family as I for sure know that it didn't come from mine. I will contact him to meet us as soon as possible".

Naruto nodded but then asked: "What about those chains from earlier mom?"

Tsunade almost slapped her forehead, she almost forgot about them due to the shook from earlier. She then proceeded to say: "well baby, the are called chakra chains which are one of the bloodline characteristics of the Uzumaki clan, which is the clan where your great-grandmother comes from. I will give you the notes she written about them, as I don't have them myself and have no idea on how to use them. You can read then while I contact your father. OK honey?". Naruto nodded eager to learn something new.

All they have to do now is contact Minato and hope he would have an answer.

Hope you all enjoyed the chapter.
