Chapter 2

In the training ground, Tsunade and rest watch in shock as Naruto sends Ryu flying.

"So that how was. Naruto was flaring up the chakra of the clones to cover up the chakra of the Nine-Tails," Karin said.

The rest finally showed a look of understanding.

"how is that Ryu nii? told ya you won't see it coming" Naruto in his two tails mode said

"So that's how it is!!" Ryu gets up brushing the dust off his cloth. He also came to the same conclusion as Karin "I ready didn't consider the nine tails into this. How is he by the way?"

"Ah! He's fine but has been saying something about him losing out to a burning chicken" Naruto scratched his head.

"Hahaha" Ryu laughed knowing that Kurama was talking about Jinwu "seem my friend also doesn't want to lose out to an overgrow pup"

"But this fight isn't about them" Ryu waves at Karin to come "Naruto you have grown strong but it is not enough if you want to bring Sasuke back from Orochimaru"

Ryu then passes his sword to Karin who came "let me show the difference"

{lightning chakra mode}

With his whole body covered in lightning chakra, "I won't be holding back Naruto"

"It seems he has become serious guess we can finally use some of our training" Karin said as she returns

"Is it going to be bad for Naruto?" Sakura asked

"You might not know but Ryu nii is a real demon trainer when he becomes like that" Karin looked like she was remembering a nightmare "he didn't go easy on me and Hinata either"

"Here I come Naruto" Ryu disappears

Before Naruto could react Ryu was in front of him "I wonder If you see this coming"

Ryu punches Naruto knocking the air out of him, before sending him crashing into the trees. Naruto quickly gets up trying to make a comeback.

{REVERSE LOTUS}

Ryu continually strikes Naruto from multiple directions, pummeling him into the air.

Ryu appears behind above him. Raising his leg Ryu delivers a powerful Axe Kick that sends Naruto crashing to the ground.

"What absurd physical strength," Jiraya says.

As the person who trains Naruto, he knows better than anyone how strong Naruto was in this state. But here is someone toying with Naruto like a child.

"He hasn't even taken off his weight seal yet," Tsunade said with her arms crossed.

Even after completing his training for the pink muscles. It has become part of him to keep his weight seals.

She is also someone who knows how much of a monster Ryu was. With only his Taijutsu, he could fight gate 5 Guy to a draw.

As the fight got more intense Karin and Sakura could only see blurs of blue and red.

"can I catch up to them?" Sakura was feeling depressed seeing the gap between her and Naruto. She had a feeling Sasuke wasn't too far from Naruto.

*Boom*

Naruto crashes into another tree again. He gets up with a lot of bruises on his body, but thanks to his Nine tails chakra his body was able to heal quickly.

'As expected of nii san he isn't showing mercy' Naruto though 'but that's not all I got'

"What are you spacing out for?" Ryu appears beside him taking the chance to send another jab.

But then Naruto move at a faster speed than before barely dodging Ryu's attack

"He dodged it" Ryu was shocked but then he looks at the extra tail behind Naruto and it all made sense.

Ryu stops and looks at the three tail mode Naruto "I haven't asked but how long can you go"

"Mm I can keep my three tails mode for about 30 mins" Naruto answers not dropping his guard

"What about four tails?"

"Kyubi says my body isn't strong enough to handle that much"

"I see" after saying Ryu starts attacking again.

This time Naruto was able to react to some of his attacks barely. Ryu was very happy to see Naruto's progress. Although it looks like Ryu is easily winning. Naruto is also getting better at dodging his attacks.

If Naruto was able to block one of every ten attacks before now he is blocking four out of ten.

'but was Naruto always able to adapt this fast" Ryu thought looking at Naruto

At this time in the original story, Naruto was hardly Jounin level. But his present strength is nearing Kage level.

'Things are changing. I wonder if Sasuke will be able to handle him' Ryu though well sending another attack at Naruto.
