Reborn in the Narutoverse 17 Training Party

The two fierce dragon silhouettes one of Azure the other Green slammed into each other sending shock waves throughout the forest, Naruto was holding onto a branch trying not to be swept away by the powerful gusts of wind. A large crater formed in between the two, as degraded Chakra and dust floated into the air like smoke from a fire.

Kibo's face was pale, it took every ounce of strength he had not to be crushed under the weight of his own technique, he coughed up a mouth full of blood, but luckily Kibo could feel his gate of healing rapidly repairing the fractured bones, and ruptured muscles in his body, Kibo then stared across the gulf to see his opponent's condition. Chen's appearance was completely healthy, not the least bit of exhaustion could be seen on his face, only that of complete surprise.

"I must say, you have the Chakra of a peak Genin at most, yet this technique at least allowed you to reach a mid grade Chunin in strength." Chen assessed his technique, as he looked over his condition. "Why are you trying so hard to make me accept you as disciples?" Kibo collapsed and sighed, "You know I looked you up in Konoha's records, but more specifically I looked up your last student's." Chen's eyes widened, "I can understand why you're hurting, but your selfish attitude will leave the leaf ninja weaker if you don't pass on your skills." Kibo sat up, "Did you know that during that final struggle, it was your student who chose to stay behind and protect his retreating allies." Chen expression turned sour, but Kibo didn't stop. "He held off the enemy Shinobi all by himself and saved 148 fellow Konoha Ninjas."

A bit of water formed at the edge of Chen's eyes. "Your student's actions were his own choice, and if he could stand in front of you today and hear you given up teaching because of him, what do you think his reaction would be?"

"You should really stop blabbering Kid, you don't know what you're talking about." Chen spoke defensively, making Kibo know he was on the right track, "He'd be disappointed in you, and ashamed of himself for being the reason you quit teaching! You gave him everything, even the chance to fulfill his dream and protect his village, along with his family and friends. I think he would rather want to see you proud of him, and he would rather be thanking you for helping him, and teaching him. Be the master he was so gratified to call his own."

The tears from Chen finally began falling, the emotional moment lasted a bit but after he calmed down he looked to Naruto and Kibo. With a sigh he took of his sunglasses, and like a stone being lifted from his soul he stood straight up, he's early hunched over stature could no longer be seen. In front of the two stood a tall and stern looking man as he shouted "Well; is this how you greet your master!?" The two made a startled jump, then quickly performed a traditional bow one would use when accepting their teacher. "Students greet teacher!" The two shouted.

"Good every day after class, you two will come and receive training from me." The two nodded their heads in excitement, as they ran home that day at max speed. After going to school the next day they felt like it would never end, but after class something interesting happened. Hinata walked up to Naruto and asked him, "N. N. Naruto C. c Can I join you in your training?" Kibo looked surprised at Hinata's bravery, while thinking that the fact he and Naruto saving her could've deepened her desire to be with him.

While Naruto was glancing at Kibo for recognition, Kibo gave a subtle nod of acceptance. He jumped up in joy while hugging Hinata. "Yay; now I get to see more of Hinata!" Hinata's body temperature sky rocketed; she had reached her Naruto exposure limit as she passed out from embarrassment. Kibo laughed as Naruto shook her gently trying to wake her. When she opened her eyes she spoke shyly "I'm sorry I passed out again!" Naruto's face matched Hinata as he said, "Don't worry just think of this as training too."

Karin who was holding on to Kibo's arm said, "Do you think she has enough Chakra to even start your training?"

Kibo looked over Hinata with his Tengan, she had amazingly powerful dormant Chakra; however she wouldn't be able to access it until she grew, Kibo was trying to think of and find a way to help increase her Chakra levels earlier so she could truly train with them. "Navi any ideas?" Kibo asked.

"You could use the Dragon Tear's I collected!" Navi replied. "Hey I wondered where those were, how come I didn't see it in my Inventory?" Kibo questioned.

"I was removing the bestial nature from the Chakra, now they're purified non elemental Chakra Crystals. Anyone can use them to increases their Chakra limits. However energy is extremely potent suggest host uses a buffer such as water, earth or other objects to lower the crystal's output. Recommended for Host to absorb over time rather than all at once, chances of overloading Chakra channels and exploding are high if Host attempts to do so. Host should also note that this is a useful ingredient in making Chakra Items."

Kibo had the system chop off a fist sized gem, and then he broke them into 4 even sections. Walking up to a tree he took off a piece of branch around the size of his entire arm and transported it into his system. Navi can you encase the Chakra Crystal inside the wood and cut it down to the same shape, just 2 inches above the crystal."

"Yes! Ding! Action complete." Kibo withdrew the items from his inventory and placed a hole through the top, and began imbuing it with wood nature energy. Suddenly the pendants looked like they started to breath, "Wood energy to nurture the body, and pure Chakra to accelerate training."

[Congratulations to Host for making a Chakra Accessory. C Ranked Creation! Host is awarded with +5 to his Chakra Smith Skill.]

"Please Name Creation!" Navi chimed.

Kibo looked like he was thinking hard, "How about Branch of Life Amulet!"

[Branch of Life Amulet(C-Ranked): Capable of nourishing wearer's physique, and Chakra limit overtime by an increased rate of 200%.]

After pulling out the amulets he handed them to Naruto, while whispering "You can have these, they'll increase your training speed, but. . ." He looked to Hinata then back at Naruto and said "I thought you might want to carve something into the pendent before you give it to her."

"But this is yours why don't you give it to her." Naruto asked as Kibo hit him in the head. "Because I'm giving them to you; what you do with it is your own business." Naruto blushed and said his thanks as he pulled out a kunai, and began marking into the wood. After a few minutes he had drawn the whirlpool symbol on the back, and covered the front in lilies that looked like they were growing out to reach the sun in the center. During all this Hinata was watching his face with a captivated stare, she liked how attentive and dedicated to his work he was, and his facial expressions showed it all.

When he finished he turned around and said "Here Hinata this one's for you!" Seeing the present she wanted to refuse, "But I didn't get you anything!" Kibo interrupted when he said, "This is so you can train with us." Kibo told her the properties of the amulet. "When you can perform a single Shadow Clone then you can join us. Naruto has done a lot of practice that you need to catch up on." Kibo pulled out copies of the Shadow Clone Technique and the Pink Muscle Transformation Technique, and handed them to her. "These are two techniques you'll need to master to keep up with us, Naruto has already learned these, and more." Kibo turned to Naruto, "And if Naruto allows it, you can learn something extra when you come to train."

Kibo was referring to the Ninshu Scroll, and Naruto caught on to what he was talking about, "I don't mind if Hinata sees it." Kibo nodded his head as Hinata smiled while holding the amulet. "The Whirlpool Symbol on the back is my signature, the front represent your name. Flower's reaching towards the sunny place! That's a good name for the work."

Hinata was very happy, her words couldn't describe it. Naruto placed his hand on her shoulder, "Hinata, you didn't faint again did you?" She didn't before, but once he touched her she sure felt like doing so.

Kibo laughed as he watched the awkward couple refused to part, "I'll head home without you!" Kibo said leaving as he teased them "After all Naruto you should walk your lady home." Kibo said as he walked along side Karin.

"Na. Naruto's girl?!" Hinata said fainting yet again; Naruto caught her and said, "Now I gotta carry her home."

Kibo and Karin had walked quite a distance when she pulled on his hand, "So do I get one too?" Kibo pulled out the other two and used his Star Chakra Molding to carve out the whirlpool symbol and on the front his own clan symbol. He then handed it to her, "Naruto's Symbol?" Kibo laughed, "No it's the Uzumaki Symbol. After all you are a pure blood." Kibo then explained to her about the Uzumaki Clan and their traits.

Karin was shocked to say the least. When she thought Naruto and her could be distantly related she felt happy that another relative of hers was surviving. "And the image on the front?" Karin asked batting her eyes at him.

Kibo scratched his face while blushing. "It's to show you're my girl." Karin pulled her body closer to his arm and rested her head on his shoulder. "Thank you Kibo, for everything." Karin cried a little making Kibo feel flustered. As he finished making his own, Kibo placed his clan symbol on the back and drew Seiryu on the front of his own amulet. After putting the Amulet away Kibo realized that he was walking down a familiar path, up ahead was the lake Itachi and Fugaku took Sasuke to train his Fire Release Jutsu. As they walked by they could hear the sounds of someone training.

"Great Fire Ball Jutsu!" The area suddenly changed in color, the flames lit up the surroundings even though it was still bright out. Kibo looked over to see Sasuke and Itachi training together. When Kibo suddenly had an idea, he asked Karin to hang around here for him here for a bit, because he wanted to talk to those Uchiha for a while. Karin nodded her head and stood waiting at the hill top patiently.

As Kibo got closer, Itachi saw him approaching; a smile came across his face as he waved his hand disrupting Sasuke's concentration. After Sasuke's Jutsu canceled he could hear his brother calling out. "Ooi! Kibo it's good to see you again friend." Sasuke was stunned, as his eyes went wide before shouting "Isn't that guy from my class!?" Kibo walked up to him and said, "Good to see you as well Itachi!" The two shook hands and Sasuke's jaw dropped.

"Glad to hear your injury recovered! Still to think that pill that has all the Medical Nin scratching their heads in confusion is capable of such a thing." Itachi commented.

Kibo scratched his head and laughed, "You know I can say I've fully healed, but you can't." Itachi frowned, "Last time when I looked at you with my Tengan, I saw part of your body. . ." Kibo pointed to his lungs and continued "that has weaker and damaged life force."

"What are you trying to say, my brother's injured?" Sasuke shouted. Kibo shook his head and said, "No I'm saying he's sick! Probably lung cancer." Itachi's eyes widened. "Sometimes when you wake up at night or when you're practicing your flame release techniques, you feel a sharp pain in your lungs right?"

Sasuke started to panic, because he'd seen the symptoms "He's wrong! Right Itachi Nii Chan?" The look on his face however showed the severity of the situation. Kibo purchased a panacea pill from his shop for 1,000 points, and tossed it to Itachi.

"That pill should take care of your illness." Kibo said with his arms crossed. "Why are you helping me?" Itachi asked, he didn't think that Kibo would harm him, considering all he's done for the Uchiha Clan. When Kibo answered him, "A long time ago I was sick too, but now I'm better. I'm just passing on the kindness that was given to me by that weird Alchemy Master." Once again the mythical Alchemy God saves the day.

Itachi smiled as he swallowed the pill, he felt the medicine start to dissipate in his stomach, like foam that was slowly rising while cleansing his body. When it reached his lungs Sasuke's eyes widened in panic.
