Next morning ~

Third Person POV ~

Naruto had given the scroll containing a rough sketch of seal to Gaara and explained the process of it all in detail. When he was leaving the tower he bumped into Temari and Kankuro, he had started annoying the former saying he wouldn't leave her until she started helping him train. She had grumbled and huffed but agreed in the end.

"Alright, what help do you want brat?" Temari asked crossing her arms.

"Ah, you are a wind user correct?" Naruto began lightly.

She narrowed her eyes at him in irritation. That was quiet obvious, the fan on her back wasn't just for show. "Hai." She grunted.

He grinned at her, finally getting to topic. "Sweet. Me too. I want help for manipulating and controlling my element better ttebayo."

"You didn't have to nag me so much about this." She grumbled. "I'll give you scrolls for that. You can help yourself."

"Cool. Also,..." Naruto hesitated.

"What?" Temari narrowed her eyes again.

Naruto shifted his weight from one foot to another and blurted, "Can you teach me Tessenjutsu?"

The dirty blonde haired female was surprised, "You want to learn Combat with Fans?" She asked, just to confirm.

"Hai. I know the basics but I want to learn more of it tteba."

She eyed him with a raised brow. "What size do you want to go with? Have you thought?"

"Yeah. Medium size. The big ones are not for me, the small ones are not at all showey." He scratched his cheek with a finger and scrunched his face up.

She eye rolled and he grinned. Typical Naruto.

"Alright, come along. I'll take you to the weapon store and help you choose the right one then we can start training." She shrugged and began walking.

"You're the best Nee-chan, dattebayo!" Naruto cheered.

"Yeah yeah 'course I am." Temari smirked. At least one of her brothers had the ability to smile.

They both reached the weapon store that Temari usually preferred, Kankuro had already left for working on yet another puppet before the two wind users had begun talking.

"Temari-sama. How can I help you today?" A man, about the age of 30s, greeted bowing to his usual customer just sparing a single glance at her fellow blonde.

"This boy here wants to choose a battle fan. Showey but elegant at the same time. Nothing too big or small, preferably average in size." Temari replied with her powerful voice.

Naruto mused, the authority in her hasn't change a bit since he had first seen the girl during Chunin exams. Though she doesn't treat people like the dirt of her shoe like she used to.

That's when the man at the counter shifted his eyes to look at Naruto properly. The man eyed him from head to toe for what seemed like several hours but was only seconds, as if assessing him. Naruto willed himself not to fidget that he was so tempted to do. Sure he liked attention but stares have always been unnerving.

The man nodded, "Follow me, my lady, shinobi-san."

"Aa. I'm Uzumaki Naruto, ttebayo."

"Nice to meet you ttebayo-san, I am Mehagi Kenta. The owner of this store." The man, now known as Kenta introduced himself.
