Naruto who finished eating with Haku wiped his mouth clean and stood up next to Haku.

After kissing Haku on the forehead, he said with a smile "Alright, I'll be going now, Perverted Sage is probably finished gathering information as to where the next hokage is. Be careful doing missions, call me with the seal when you encounter any danger, I'll come immediately."

Haku smiled and nodded in reply "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Naruto waved his hand goodbye, and smiled as he then disappeared from the house.

Siu!

He forgot to account to Orochimaru coming back and taking control of Hashirama and Tobirama again so he went to Hiruzen.

"Jiichan." He called out with a smile seeing Hiruzen doing paperwork.

"Naruto? What are you here for? Have you found Tsunade?" Hiruzen inquired, stopping his paperwork for a bit.

"Nothing really, I was just here to ask if the Nidaime dealt with their seals in case Orochimaru came back to make trouble." Naruto explained his concern.

Hiruzen smiled and nodded "Thanks for your concern but indeed. Sensei has already dealt with their sealing."

Naruto nodded in understanding and said his goodbye "Alright, I just came to check on that. Thanks for your hard work."

Hiruzen nodded and replied as he continued with his paperwork "Thank you. Thanks for your hard work too. Remember to relax when you have time."

Naruto chuckled and replied before disappearing "I know that. Thanks Jiichan."

"Umu. Be careful out there."

Naruto simply nodded then teleported to Jiraiya.

Siu!

Naruto arrived at Jiraiya already traveling from tree to tree but stopped as he sensed Naruto.

"Naruto? Let's go. I'm headed for Tsunade right now. We have to move fast or else we'd lose her."

Naruto simply nodded and followed behind Jiraiya's back who jumped back on track. 

'Looks like this granny Tsunade is quite fast on her feet if Perverted Sage moved that fast as soon as he got the information.'

1 day later…

Arriving at a gambling city larger than the last. Jiraiya said as he breathed a sigh of relief "We're here. Now, Let's gather information fast…"

Naruto didn't even let him finish and said as 2 more kanji appeared in his forehead beside his usual 'wind' kanji to increase his sage senses.

He pointed at a direction and said "Over there. There's a chakra there a little bit higher than yours."

Jiraiya gave Naruto a thumbs up and said "Alright! You move fast. Let's go! By the way, why is your sage mode different?"

"Oh this? I succeeded but my chakra control is not high enough. I need to increase it more. Balancing 3 different natural energies with chakra is a bit difficult so I don't stay in that form all the time just like my wind one."

"What?!?!" Jiraiya stopped on his tracks immediately as he heard Naruto's training had succeeded. But then asked "Even with your monstrous chakra control it's difficult to handle?"

Naruto nodded and said as he went into the direction of Tsunade also returned his sage mode to wind. "Let me explain."

Jiraiya nodded as he listened to Naruto while going at the same pace as him.

Naruto explained "Elemental Sage Mode. It's easier if you put a numerical value on it whereas the total chakra, and natural energy is balanced. Knowing how much 0.1% chakra is will make it easier for sage mode."

Jiraiya thought about it and understood but looked at Naruto in disbelief "You know how much your 0.1% chakra is? That's how potent your chakra control is?"

Naruto nodded and continued "that's for one elemental sage mode, if it's two elements it's a different story. When you turn into 2 elemental sage mode, you need to know 0.01% is and then balance it out. It's still manageable for me but when you turn 3 elements you need to know about how much 0.0001% is. That's why I prefer to use 1 elemental sage mode."

Jiraiya exasperatedly replied "You're a freak of nature."

Naruto chuckled and replied "Thanks. We're here."

Jiraiya sighed, wanting to forget about it and going to see Tsunade right now. Naruto's ideas are revolutionary that it's scary. Though not everyone can do it like him. How could one even know how much exactly one's 0.0001% chakra is? And is that even possible?

Jiraiya opened the sliding door to the pub where Naruto detected the chakra only to hear Tsunade's voice yelling "Boss! More beer!"

Jiraiya raised his voice happily as he saw her "Tsunade!"

Tsunade, as if dumbfounded, asked "Jiraiya… Why are you here?"

Jiraiya and Tsunade stared at each other from eye to eye and as if time stopped. 

Naruto interrupted with a compleme….. I mean a rude remark. "Uwah! Perverted Sage! Her boobs are huge! Is that even real?"

Jiraiya was surprised at Naruto's astonished comment and laughed out loud "Isn't it?! I'm surprised too! When we were young, her boobs were so fla…"

Boom!

Jiraiya was sent flying outside by a kick from Tsunade.

Naruto was used to this type of situation when he encounters strong ninjas so he gave 1 million ryo to the owner of the pub who was dumbfounded to see his door being broken, Naruto smiled apologetically and said "Keep the change. Sorry about that, Occhan."

The owner came to his senses upon seeing what he received and replied happily "No problem! You can eat whatever you want as long as you stay for today. You can even destroy a few more tables if you want."

"Is that so? Thanks! Occhan!"

"Then I'll let you be with your company. Hey! Serve this young man if he wants anything from the pub!"

"Of course!" the attendants from the pub replied seeing how the young man basically paid their salaries for the month.

Tsunade snorted and replied "Be thankful you're a kid or else I'd send you flying along with that pervert."

Naruto teased "You call him a pervert but don't you like him? Perverted Sage is a bit dense but I saw it your eyes~ Big boobed granny~"

Tsunade flinched for a bit and Naruto didn't miss that but she snorted as she went back to her seat "Like hell I do. Who the hell are you in the first place? You brat?"

Naruto followed and sat on the opposite side of the table where Tsunade was sitting on "I'm Uzumaki Naruto. Nice to meet you. Big boobed Granny!"

Tsunade was annoyed at being called that and said "Don't call me Big boobed granny! And… don't you have to check on that pervert?"

Naruto waved his hands and replied "Alright, Tsunade-baachan… and he's fine. His chakra is pretty good and is at the door right now. Excuse me! Can I get some Oolong tea please?!"

"Of course! I'll get it to you right away!" An attendant replied with a smile.

Jiraiya entered the nonexistent door just around the time Naruto ordered water. "You're still as hot-tempered as usual! Tsunade!"

Tsunade was surprised at Naruto's ability to sense Jiraiya. Was he a sensory ninja? And his name… "Uzumaki Naruto? The nine…"

Tsunade didn't continue as if considering Naruto's feelings but Naruto replied "Yup! Yup! I'm Kurama's Jinchuuriki."

Tsunade was dumbfounded. Naruto knew that he was a Jinchuuriki and the tailed beast had a name?! Did he name it himself?!

Jiraiya who sat beside Naruto saw Tsunade's face and chuckled "Don't think about it or anything this kid will do will surprise you."

Naruto's tea arrived and he said "You serve us for the entire time we're here, and I'll give you a generous tip."

The attendant happily replied with a smile on his face "Of course! I'll serve you the best I can!"

Naruto smiled and drank the tea he was served. He said to Jiraiya "Perverted Sage. the business we have. And… excuse me! Do you have a meat skewer?! I'd like some if you do!"

"Of course we have some even if we don't I'll get one for you! I'll be back in a bit with your skewers when it's cooked!" The attendant replied

"Oh right! Tsunade. Konoha has issued a request to make you the next hokage." Jiraiya said nonchalantly.

Tsunade merely drank the wine in her cup with a blank stare. "Hokage huh?"

Jiraiya asked in concern "So? Are you willing to accept?"

"Impossible. I decline." Tsunade as if she remembered her ex lover and brother who wanted to become hokage now… they're dead… She wasn't worthy plus… she has hemophobia. A Hokage couldn't be someone that's afraid of blood.

Jiraiya laughed and said "How nostalgic! I remember when I asked you out in the past and you said the same exact words! Haha!"

Naruto merely received the skewers he ordered and thanked the attendant and watched them talk.

Tsunade looked at Naruto and commented with a smile "Jiraiya… This kid seems a lot like your previous disciple… in terms of looks, speech, and intelligence…"

"Hahaha! It's tough for anyone to compare to the 4th Hokage but he's more than enough to compare to the 4th."

Tsunade replied as if trying to vent his sadness "But even then… that 4th died quickly… he gave up his life for the village. Even my grandfather and the second hokage both focused too much on bringing peace to our home but as a result they died in the middle of their dreams like losers. It shouldn't be risked so easily… whoever puts it at risk so easily is a fool."

Naruto munched on the meat skewers he ordered and replied to Tsunade "I guess you don't only talk big like you're all that but you're also a coward. If you have something more important than your life like the 4th Hokage, you would do the same. And dying in the middle of your dreams? It's better than dying and not trying at all to reach for your dreams."

Tsunade stood up and put one of her feet on the table, feeling offended by Naruto's words "You've got some guts saying something like that to me boy… Let's take this outside."

Naruto brought the meat skewers with him as he replied "Sure. Attendant! Here's your tip."

"Thank you. Please come again!" The attendant smiled happily seeing Naruto give him 50,000 ryo.
