Yo! I always try to find my time for my dear fans.

Naruto along with Konohamaru literally in air defying gravity were talking like they were discussing the warm and humid weather. Naruto swam to Konohamaru's level and laughed sheepishly with both of his hands behind his head. Mind you they were still flying. "Ha ha ha.... I thought at least one of them wouldn't step on the mine."

Suddenly Naruto looked down and saw his clone flying towards him. He quickly grabbed Konohamaru and stepped on the clone's back and with a great leap landed on the red spot full of red clover, in the middle of Akagahara. Wow. His leaping abilities improved along the fact that none of the clones dispelled.

And thus the search for crimson 4-leaf clover began.

Now,

"I think it worked, Konohamaru." Naruto said with wide eyes looking around the red spot full of crimson leaf clover in the middle of Akagahara. Now the big deal was to find a single, just a single four-leaf crimson clover. And that was gonna be-

"Yes! There are alot of crimson clovers!" Konohamaru said excitedly looking around. Naruto could sense that there were no traps around here. He smiled. Unknown to him, inside his dimensional future counterpart was grinning showing his every teeth. That was just awesome.

No. Not the leap or the jump but rather he was talking about the fact that Naruto sensed the traps. In a way it wouldn't seem much but if you think objectively you would notice that there are no ways to sense a trap. A Sharingan can see even a slightest twitch and by that it means even the slightest change and thus almost 30% of the total Sharingan users could detect or avoid traps but if used correctly then even a Sharingan cannot track wires or traps. Sasuke used it against Itachi who didn't knew about it.

Coming to the point, Naruto was able to sense it because of the chakra imprint left on those traps. The chakra lingering in air along with the several more chakra imprints on the ground, to specify and detect those traps needed precision in chakra control and sensory techniques. His training was paying off. Finally, young Naruto can use the teleportation substitution technique. Good. Part one was successful and he was damn gonna celebrate it.

"It must be the miracle of love." Konohamaru said crying comically, tears streaming down his eyes.

What would a 8-years old know about love? Young Naruto deadpanned. Really. Miracle of love. He damn stepped on his clone who came flying towards them when they were hanging in air. Literally. And he pulled the scarf of Konohamaru to pull him with himself. And every credit to miracle of love. Seriously?!

"So it turned out okay." Naruto said in the most uninterested and demotivated bored voice. Naruto looked around. It wasn't very creative or something but why was there a stone statue in the middle of this red spot. And why in the hell Konohamaru was feeling excited, thankful to God and- wait a minute! How does he know what Konohamaru is feeling?

Inside his mind, older Naruto along with Tailed Beasts were playing poker as Naruto and the others saw what was happening outside.

I must say I'm impressed. In my lifetime, I never saw someone grasp the most difficult yet the most basics of Ninshu so easily. Kurama said as he passed his card. He was indeed impressed at the growth and would have showered him with praises (only two to three words) if he wasn't concentrating on the game.

Magnificent! Matatabi cried out. Not for Naruto but rather it was going well for her in the game. The rate of improvement is astounding. She said as she assessed young Naruto but returned to play her games.

It's really working huh? Shukaku said as he picked up a card from Lucius. Ninshu was indeed great. It didn't only developed user's chakra and its utilisation but also unlocked the subconscious mind and its various mysterious powers along with removing physical limiters although that was for later part.
