With a yawn, Naruto entered the kitchen of the Baxter Building clad in his workout clothes, which consisted of a tank top and a pair of shorts. A thin sheen of sweat could be seen reflecting off the lights after a good, long session as he prepped a small snack before he headed to bed.

"You know, I'm always jealous of you're stamina." Naruto turned around with a grin to see, Susan entering into the kitchen dressed in her lab clothes. He would admit, that like most outfits Susan wore, she was beautiful.

"It's one of my many talents."

"Which one, your stamina or your ability to inspire jealousy?" Susan shot back as she crossed the room to pour herself a cup of coffee.

"Both." He replied and Susan gave a short laugh before turning to face him.

"You're very modest, has anyone ever told you that?" She asked, moving to join him at the bar he was sat at.

He put on a face of extreme concentration before breaking out into a small grin. "Not really, no." Smiling, Susan shook her head.

"I wonder why?" She replied rhetorically. "It couldn't possibly be because you sing your praises enough, it must be some other reason."

"I know right. I mean come on, I may give myself some praise now and again, but that's only because no one else is doing it." Susan laughed once more, enjoying his sense of humour and the little back and forth they had. "Another all nighter?"

Susan looked down at herself and her clothes before nodding her head. "Yea, I'm close to finally figuring out how your Chakra effects you're body." Susan excitedly said, almost bouncing in her seat at all the possibilities the energy he wielded possessed.

"Like what, because if you wanted to figure out what I could do with chakra, I could have told you a long time ago." He said before taking a moment to think. "Actually, pretty sure I gave you a brief outline when we first met."

Susan rolled her eyes. "You did, but I want to understand how and why chakra allows you to do what you can, not what. Besides, I'm not interested in the manipulation of chakra for elemental uses. More on how chakra improves your body even further."

Naruto looked at her with a raised brow, before with a measure of interest stared at her questioningly. Susan noticed this and cleared her throat as she prepared to speak.

"Well, as you know, your body has evolved differently to ours. You're human in practically every way, evolved in the same way for the most part. However, it was your environment that caused you to change. Like, in our world, humans split into two different species. The Neanderthals and the Homo-Sapiens. You're pretty much Neanderthals. You're faster, stronger, more durable and have greater stamina."

Naruto nodded his head, he didn't have much knowledge on science and the evolution of humans on this world, but he would admit that he was a little curious to know more.

"So in your world, it's pretty much a what if the Neanderthals won scenario. However, there are differences, like your ability to use chakra." She pointed out. "Now this seems to have enriched your cells to even greater heights."
