Well, after he had used up the Kyuubi's Chakra, he spent a couple of days recovering, though all of the injuries he had incurred held up within minutes of happening. His body was still worn out from being flooded by the Kyuubi's Chakra.

Once Naruto had awoken and could move about himself, Rinji provided Naruto with some belongings of Anisu's—some spare clothes they happened to have—since Naruto's former garments were in tatters. The only article of clothing that survived the incident belonged to Naruto's orange coat, which had been blowing off his body when he used the Kyuubi'sChakra, which Anisu later found.

At the very least, the Shodaime's necklace that Tsunade hath given managed to survive. He was still angry at her for lying about his family, though he regarded the necklace as an important keepsake.

Once Naruto was clothed, Rinji asked if he could use his Chakra when the blonde boy started summoning and forming his Rasengan. This surprised Rayleigh and Rinji because they recognized the famous technique of the Yondaime Hokage.

Seeing that he could use his Chakra, Naruto started cheering and crying, saying it worked.

Soon after, when Naruto calmed down, Rayleigh saw Naruto, so he asked Naruto if he could talk about Konoha.

Naruto responded that in Konoha, there are things and people, such as the academy, the names of the people, and all other things. Seeing that he could speak freely, Naruto began to cheer again at finally being free of Danzo's seal.

It finally ended with Rayleigh making Naruto coolly quiet, pulling down a little on it to make sure Danzo's seal was gone.

When Rayleigh was sure Danzo's seal was gone, he was silent for a few moments before finally making an offer to make sure Naruto was clear, an offer he and Rinji had discussed, waiting for him to wake.

"Naruto, Rinji, and I have been talking, and we both agreed that if you were interested, we would like you to join us on our travel, during which Rinji and I will train you."

"Are you serious?" asked Naruto with disbelief, where the former swordsman just nodded. 

At that, Naruto just smiled; forwards could not describe the feeling coursing through him.

For the next few hours, Rayleigh and Rinji spoke with Naruto about what he knew and could. During the chat, Naruto second-guessingly revealed to them that Jiraiya had trained him. That took both Rinji and Anisu by surprise. He was not to be taught by the so-called Legendary Gama Seninn of Densetsu no Sannin, one of the world's most famed and powerful Shinobi.

Rayleigh wasn't surprised, as he expected as much after seeing Naruto perform the Rasengan as other than the Yondaime Hokage, who was not deceased. Jiraiya was the only known Shinobi from the Rasengan who could do it.

"Tell me something, Naruto; did Jiraiya-sama teach you anything besides the Rasengan?" asked Rayleigh.

"Yeah, he had me sign a contract with the Toads and taught me how to summon them," replied Naruto, and with this, as soon as he said this, Rayleigh frowned.

At seeing Rayleigh frown, Naruto asked what was wrong, after which Rayleigh began to explain how when a person signs a contract with a summoning, the summoning can reverse summon the person to their home place or track them.

"So the Toad," Naruto's newly coined name for Jiraiya, "can come and get me any time he wants to," Naruto said in realization, and Rayleigh nodded yet again.

"Is there anything I can do to avoid that?" he inquired, intending never to want anything to do with Jiraiya again after realizing the all-important context of their relationship.
