The Kitsune Demon

Chapter 7 - Greed

In his room, Naruto continued his training by doing pushups and sit up while infusing chakra into his body simultaneously. If Kakashi saw this he would be shocked, although it didn't increase the strength of the person at all it required an intense amount of focus and concentration. Sitting at his desk Naruto changes into a pair of pajamas after taking a shower. When changing he noticed that he had a tattoo on his back. Seven figures circled a yin yang symbol in the center of his back, the figures looked like demons. While looking at the tattoo one of them glowed making a symbol appear on his tail. Reading the symbol Naruto mutters its name, " Greed " As the word leaves his lips the symbol glows a bright green before a sword is summoned from the light. As it starts to fall to the ground Naruto reflexively grabs it with his tail.

The sword is around 28 inches in length not including the hilt. The hilt is wrapped in black leather and ends in a ring similar to a kunai. The blade itself is only sharp on one side with a bright green hue running along the edge of the blade. The most noticeable thing about the blade is that it has seven holes running along the blade. Slowly waving the blade back and forth Naruto hears the blade emit a sharp whistle.

Naruto experiments with the blade emitting different notes when he swings it faster or slower. At some point Naruto had entered a trance his body seemingly moving on its own. A scene appeared in Naruto's mind eye men and women fighting over a single piece of gold. Naruto felt nothing as he watched them tear each other apart over the gold the size of a finger. When it was all over one man remained, he was covered in blood. His eyes clear as he takes in the bodies lying around him and the memories of what he did overtake him. He screams as he claws at his eyes like getting rid of them would take away his memories.

Soon he succumbs to his wounds leaving the gold nugget in a sea of bodies. Slowly the gold nugget losses it sheen and turns into a regular rock. The horrific scene slowly fades revealing Naruto hold the green blade with his tail.

Taking a deep breath Naruto calms himself as he recalls the mass killing. His thoughts are interrupted by a notification.

Closing the window Naruto smiles at the new powers he's gained, but his smile soon turns into a pained expression as information rushes into his head, the pain quickly passes as Naruto regains a clear mind. He realizes that the sword feels much more comfortable in his tail like he's been using it for months. Getting into a basic sword stance with his tail poised over his head holding the blade with his feet shoulder length apart. Swinging the blade Naruto plays a chaotic series of notes making the blade vibrate.

Thinking of resummoning the blade it turns back into the greed symbol on his tail. Collapsing on the bed Naruto starts to make sealing chains making them different lengths and thicknesses. Feeling exhausted from the day's events Naruto falls asleep dreaming of the day his clan returns and he can finally have a family.

" I must thank you, there is no way I would have escaped without your snake " A ruffled Danzo speaks to a man with white skin and long black hair bent over a table in concentration. " We both know that you would have found a way without me "

" You seem upset Orochimaru, did one of your experiments go wrong " Moving to another table the snake-like man sighs " No its just that, with you out of the village I can't get any more Uchia samples "

" I still have spies in the village, we just have to be careful about which specimen we collect " Danzo walks out of the hidden lab leaving the mad ninja to resume his work.

( Back at the Village )

Outside Naruto and Kakashi are standing opposite to each other, Kakashi had just shown Naruto the body flicker technique. Slowly infusing chakra into his body Naruto starts to run around the large yard at some points reaching a speed were he seems to teleport a few feet ahead.

' He's learned this technique in a few hours while it took me a whole day, it scary when you think about it ' Kakashi watches the boy with a proud look in his eyes. After five minutes Naruto has completely exhausted his chakra reserves so Kakashi lets him rest. Laying on his back Naruto's ċhėst heaves as he taking deep breaths. Standing back up Naruto looks at Kakashi who is holding his Tanto. " The next part of your training is choosing what weapon you want to use- " Kakashi sentence is interrupted by a sword appearing in Naruto's tail.

"Oh, where did that sword " Smiling Naruto responds while getting into his stance " It was in the shed I wanted to surprise you " Grinning back at him Kakashi grips his Tanto " Okay come at me with everything you got, I'll see your talent for the sword "

Naruto runs at Kakashi running parallel to the ground thanks to his tail acting as a counterbalance. When the two cross blades Kakashi ii surprised because Naruto is using the sword like he's fought with it before. Kakashi starts to attack Naruto forcing him to go on the defense while he attacks. At one point Kakashi feels hears a ringing slowly build up in his ears making his eyes cloudy. Knowing that if this continues he will lose Kakashi sweeps Naruto's leg making him fall on his buŧŧ.

" What did you do " Kakashi looks at Naruto who rubs his head " The holes on my sword can create a sound that can confuse my enemies making them lose focus " Kakashi knows how dangerous this could be one second of distractions could be the end of the fight. .
