Ryu took Naruto and left the village and started their training. At first Naruto couldn't even stand at the end of the day but he improved as time went by.

2 Years Later

A boy fourteen years of age could be seen standing in a field of rocks. He was absolutely dashing with his deep black eyes and red hair. This boy had one of his hands behind him, his other hand was in front of him. From the way he placed himself, it looked like he was in a stance.

Infront of him was a kid about twelve years of age. This kid was somewhat interesting to look at. He had yellow hair with red lines near his ear. His eyes were so pure and blue. He held a kunai in one of his hand and the other in a defensive position in front of him.

These two were none other than Naruto and Ryu. Two years have changed Ryu as he became more and more handsome. Naruto too changed and became a bit more mature.. relatively speaking.

They both stared at each other. A sudden wind blowed. Naruto charged towards Ryu. He attacked with his kunai.

Ryu didn't move from his stance. When Naruto was close enough he slightly moved his body and hit Naruto's wrist. Naruto vanished into smoke and another came from behind the first Naruto.

Ryu changed his legs position and stepped to the side. He used the hand he put forward in his stance to strike his neck from behind. Naruto used his weight and spinned avoiding the attack.

Both of them continued their assault. Naruto tried to attack from different angles but Ryu deflected them all away. Naruto threw his kunai towards Ryu and charged. Ryu dodged the kunai with ease only to be ganged up by two other Narutos.

Ryu calmy dodged their advance and found chance to strike them. All this time Ryu only used one hand. Naruto created four more clones and attacked. This time instead of defending Ryu attacked. He quickly took out all four clones and striked Naruto.

Naruto seeing this didn't dodge instead he went forward to attack. His attack was negated. Ryu grabbed his hand and threw him over his shoulder but the moment he threw Naruto over his shoulder another Naruto came from underneath and attacked.

Ryu already had his hand throwing Naruto so he couldn't block or deflect. He freed his other hand from his back and blocked. Naruto seeing this smiled

' I won big brother. You used your other hand '.

Ryu just smiled. These two years of training had improved both of their capabilities by far. Naruto was almost at the level of a high Chunin. Ryu on the other hand completed many missions shown in the missions tab and earned WP. He has already bought upto 8 bloodlines, he just need one more to create Chaos energy and truly practice Primordial Chaos Manual.

The spar just now was Naruto's test by Ryu. If Naruto could make Ryu use both hands Naruto win and this will conclude their training. Its time they return.

Ryu : Don't be too proud Naruto. No matter who your enemy is never look down on them. Alright then..our training has officially ended. Let's go home.

Naruto was excited to go back home. These two years all he had to eat was wild animals and fruits. He misses his family and Ichiraku ramen. Oh...how he craved for some Ichiraku ramen. His clones always eat them and when they are released he only gets their satisfaction. This was worse than torture for him.

Ryu teleported them back to the village. Only Shisui know of their departure, the rest of the family doesn't know that they left for training. Ryu sensed where their clones were. After checking that there was no one near them, he told Naruto it was ok to dispell the clone.

Naruto got a lot of new memories but he didn't care about them. He rushed inside the house. Akane was watering her plants in the garden when she heard someone inside the house. She turned around and saw it was Naruto. Before she could ask anything, he rushed and hugged her.

Akane was surprised : What's wrong Naruto. Did something happen at the academy?. Did someone bully you?

Naruto: No aunty. Just that...I missed you.

Akane: Awwwhh...

Akane buried Naruto's head in her chest when she heard that. She was not to blame, her nephew was so adorable.

Ryu: oi mom. I am here you know.

Akane: Don't be jealous. Come here, let mom give you a hug.

Ryu was helpless. He wouldn't dare ignore her at times like this. He learned that lesson painfully one day. Ryu went to Akane and let her hug him. After hugging both her treasures she said

' It's only a bit after lunch. Want some snacks? '.

Naruto: Of course I want it, dattebayo!!

Ryu also nodded. His mothers snacks were heavenly. They both loved to eat her food. Apart from Ichiraku this is their favourite food. While they were eating Akane suddenly asked

' Naruto, isn't your graduation coming '.

From the clone he kept inside the village he knew that graduation was coming.

Naruto: Yes aunty. It will be in two days. In two days I will be a ninja. Then in the future I will become Hokage. Dattebayo!!!

Akane weakly smiled at his words. She knew all about his low scores at the academy. It's even a question if he will become a ninja. She didn't say anything as that would make her baby sad. If she know that her ' baby ' didn't even remember that when a Shadow clone is created it will only possess the abilities of the original at its time of creation.....Now THAT would be a sight to see.
