Spiraling

Chapter 32

Konhamaru was being groomed by Naruto at this point in time. Lady Tsunade couldn't believe what she was seeing. Naruto was teaching her strength to Konohamaru. 'Three generations of enhanced strength.' She thought as she watched Naruto give detailed instructions on how to channel his chakra. He bluntly told Konohamaru that he would be lucky if he didn't break his bones on the first try which made the boy laugh.

"Alright try channeling your chakra, keep the flow steady then try doing it in both hands." Naruto instructed as he got up from his crouched position from behind his brother. "And Kono do only that, nothing more and nothing less."

"Okay  Nii-chan." It would be easy for him since his chakra control was perfect. Naruto headed over to Lady Tsunade to be pulled into a tight.

"I'm so proud of you Naruto." She caressed his messy while a few tears slipped down her cheeks. "So proud, you never let things hold down your progress." 

"Of course not Mom, you wanted me to inherit it so I found a way." He wrapped his arms around her and squeezed a bit. "I'm glad your happy."

"Naruto regardless I would've been happy." She pulled back to cup his cheeks with a playful smile. "I can only imagine how much seal work went into that."

Naruto snort, "You have no idea." They both chuckled as Jiraiya commended the moment in his family journal. It's been complied with all of Naruto's accomplishments and failures along with his and Tsunade's and they didn't forget about little Konohamaru. 

"I like this, we should have to dinner together." He spoke up from his crooked tree, the three on the ground looked up at him and nodded. 

"Well I'll cook, neither of you can't." Naruto smirked, Tsunade whacked him over the head.

"I'll bring drinks." She claimed with her infectious grin.

"I'll bring tales of old times." Jiraiya held up the family journal. They all paled, they forgot Jiraiya was one for extreme sentiments. It was cute really, his nostalgia of the past.

"Since I'm the kid I'm free." Konohamaru yelled from his stationary position, he was channeling chakra through his arms but he had to keep  them from going into healing mode. 'This is going to be a pain but I asked for a new attack so suck it up.'

"Not quite." Naruto chimed turning to him. "Your putting up the decorations this year. Last year was me."

"Come on Nii-chan I might break my arm after this." He whined stomping in place. Naruto smirked.

"Then I hope you can pull it off with one arm." 

"You sadistic bastard." Konohamaru mumbled as he focused back on his arms. Naruto winked in his direction.

"Lady Tsunade!" A girlish voice yelled, the family of four turned to see Sakura standing at the edge of the barrier with tears. Jiraiya released the dome after a confirmation from Tsunade. Sakura ran right to her and as she got closer she saw the extent of Naruto's new found strength. It was insane, the field was beyond repair.

"Sakura what is it?" She asked raising a brow as her arms folded unconsciously.

"Was I pity project?" She asked looking down at her feet, her eyes were welled with tears.

"Excuse me?" Tsunade looked confused as to watch she was referring to. Naruto however let out a dark chuckle.

"She means did you only train her because I couldn't inherit your strength." He smirked at her as she flinched a bit.

"No Sakura I did not teach you out of pity but judging from the tears I would say that's what you think." Tsunade said giving a disgusted look. Sakura gripped her fists hard and paid no attention to Sasuke or Sai who were coming up behind her.
