Chapter 146 - Chapter 146

Within the Nara household Yoshino Nara sneezed into the food she was making. She got so mad that when Shikaku walked into the room she began to hit him with a frying pan. Shikaku who had not been expecting it was sent flying into the ground, where he was beaten into unconsciousness.

Shikamaru paled at the thought of what his troublesome mom would do if she found out about that comment, "I hate you Naruto…"

Naruto merely laughed at him.

A blinded folded Naruto stood in the center of a clearing in his back yard, he was in a basic stance for one of the Toad styles he had been taught. Around him were nearly two hundred other Naruto's, some had Susanoo out as well, others had Hiraishin kunai and some were merely using their bare fist. For a moment all was silent, except for the faint rustling of the trees when a breeze blew by. Then without warning all of the clones attacked, coming at him with speeds that were beyond most jonin. Naruto however remained rooted to the spot, and as soon as the clones got in close Naruto began to move. He did not attack any of them however, but rather redirected their attacks so that they hit each other. His feet stayed in the same spot, never moving as Naruto used Susanoo to shift blades and kunai to the side. When he felt a fist go at him, Naruto would merely use a hand to redirect the attack into another clone.

The style he was using was called Gama Nintai (Toad Patients Sword Style) because of the patients and calm required to use it. Most people could never remain calm or patient when one let alone when hundreds of people were attacking you, that was because of the nervous system and naturally ingrained reflexes that controlled automatic movement functions. In order to properly wield this style one had to learn to turn these automatic functions off, allowing one to remain calm even in the face of certain death.

For several hours Naruto continued this, neither attacking nor counter attacking as he simply redirected attacks. Letting them flow over and around him as he stood there, each time he destroyed a batch he would create another, larger batch of clones until he was up to five hundred. The object of this exercise was for him to see how long he could retain his ability to remain calm, while also increasing the size of his enemies. Finally he felt a slip in his abilities, which got him nicked on the arm. It healed up a second later, and Naruto knew he had found his limit with this so far: 550 clones.

"Now it's time to surpass it…" Naruto muttered as he summoned six hundred clones, all of which charged him the moment they were made.

"So tell me, why are we here again?" Naruto asked the people who had managed to drag him here. Naruto and his friends Kiba, Chouji, Ino and Sakura were in one of the shinobi bars located throughout Konoha. The four had somehow managed convinced him go with them, not that he minded being with friends, but since he could not get drunk he did not see the point in going to a bar.

"We're here bcaushe you need to letsh loosh every onshe in awhile," Kiba said in a slurred voice, before taking another shot of sake.

"The light weight here is right," Ino said, making Kiba's face gain an expression that looked somewhere between wanting to snarl at her, and wanting to hit on her. "And while I don't feel like getting myself wasted, it's a good place to hang out," Ino finished as she took a sip of her sake.

Sakura nodded, "Ino's right, with all the things we do as shinobi we should take whatever opportunities we can to relax."

"Yeah I suppose so," Naruto said as he scratched his chin in thought. He gave them a grin, "and with all the god damn council meetings I have to go to I need to let loose, seriously I'm starting to get the picture of why baa-chan drinks so much. Having to deal with that group of pompous and overly arrogant wind bags would make anyone want to drink themselves stupid, if for no other reason than to block out the headache they bring."

"You know you really shouldn't call Tsunade-Sama such a disrespectful name," Sakura said with a frown as she drank her non alcoholic juice. Once upon a time she would have hit him for saying something like that, however she knew he was not the little boy he used to be anymore and would probably not take well to getting a fist smashed on his head anymore; besides he was right about her drinking habits.

Naruto shrugged, "it's a term of endearment Sakura, I don't give these titles to just anyone you know. Besides she knows she loves it, she just hasn't realized it yet."

"Whatever," Sakura replied not really wanting to get into an argument over something like that.

"Man shpeaking of the Hokage…" Kiba muttered as he took another shot of sake, "she'sh hot!"

Sakura smacked him on the back of the head while Ino kicked him in the shin, causing the Inuzuka heir to howl in pain.

"Baka!" Sakura shouted, "Don't be so disrespectful to Tsunade-Sama like that!"

Kiba was just about to reply when another voice yelled out.

"You bitch!"

Naruto and the others turned their attention to see four men surrounding a woman. One of the men lunged at said woman with the woman dodging a little to the left with a little bit of a drunken swagger, before smashing her fist into the man's face. The man was sent flying back into one of the tables, breaking it and spilling several drinks. That was when the woman stood up and Naruto felt his eyes widen as he realized who it was, the woman was none other than Yugao. The blond shinobi instantly noticed that she looked worse then she had when they first met, her hair was unkempt and her eyes were blood shot and had bags in them. She was obviously drunk as fuck from the way she was swaying, but she also looked like she had just gotten out of the hospital as well. Naruto noticed several bruises on her face, bruises he was sure she had not gotten from these men.

"Alright… who… who wants some more?" Yugao asked as she got into a sloppy taijutsu stance.

"Fucking cunt!" one of the men yelled out as he charged at her.
