Naruto: The new beginning

Chapter 18: 18. Uzumaki clan's heritage (Bonus chapter)



Here is the bonus chapter, i promised. Enjoy!

****

After Kushina completed her sixth heroic deed of pinning down and beating up the person who mocked her, they finally arrived at the Hyuga home.

"It's here." Kushina let go of Hinata's small hand and encouraged her, "Be braver in the future, Hinata-chan!"

"Yes, thank you very much!" Hinata bowed obediently in gratitude.

"Goodbye then!"

After returning home, Naruto realized that he had forgotten to leave his name for the good deeds just now. He didn't even say, "I'm Naruto"; bad luck.

"Naruto," Kushina interrupted his thoughts, handing him a book, and said, "You have almost learned the necessary basic knowledge. The next thing to learn is this."

Naruto took the book, which was as thick as a dictionary, and looked at the cover: "Introduction to Sealing?"

"Yes, sealing techniques," Kushina said. "Naruto, you used the Adamantine Sealing Chains when you were just born, which proves that you have perfectly inherited the blood of the Uzumaki clan. This is one of the reasons your father insisted on you keeping the Uzumaki surname"

"Our Uzumaki clan used to be famous for being good at sealing techniques, on par with the Senju and Uchiha clans. Our clan's advantages are strong vitality, a large amount of chakra, and our sealing techniques being more powerful than those of ordinary people. Mine can even suppress tailed beasts, which is why I became the Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails."

"Since you have inherited the talent of the Uzumaki clan, come and learn sealing techniques. You know the importance of sealing techniques, right?"

"Yeah." Naruto listened quietly to Kushina's speech. Of course, he knew that sealing techniques were very important. In the future, when facing enemies with "undead attributes" like those using Reanimation Jutsu or Hidan, he could use sealing techniques on them.

Even in the face of Orochimaru... that snake guy is a real problem. He can open the belly of the Shinigami and retrieve his hands when hit with the Reaper Death Seal and can still be resurrected through the Cursed Seal when hit with the Totsuka Blade seal. Naruto didn't know how to deal with him.

Sealing shouldn't be too difficult to learn, right? It's just different spells representing different functions. Write the spells according to certain rules, and then use chakra to exert various effects. It feels similar to programming, right? Can this stump me, a reincarnated person?

Thirty minutes later...

What is this?

Wtf..is going on?

Am I stupid?

Naruto looked at the "Introduction to Sealing Techniques" written on the cover of the book again, and it seemed that it became "Sealing Techniques from Beginner to Mastery," then "Sealing Techniques from Beginning to Abandonment," and finally "Sealing Techniques: From Entry to Entry."

At first, Naruto felt he could still memorize it, but after turning the page, he felt like, 15,16,20, 25....35 were too difficult...

Fortunately, he could ask Kushina to solve his doubts. Kushina still had experience in teaching others the sealing technique. Her first disciple was her husband, the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.

Kakashi also came to learn for a while. In the beginning, he copied several commonly used sealing techniques with the help of the Sharingan.

Now, Kushina's request for Naruto was to understand the basics and principles of sealing, which is still far from real application.

Just like after we learned Pythagoras theorem in school, we couldn't use it except to solve problems.

Naruto, who had been learning the Sealing Technique for half a day, worked extraordinarily hard today, even breaking a sandbag and spreading the sand all over the floor.

Then Kushina taught him a lesson, telling him to practice his fists and feet on wooden stakes outside in the future.

Although the process of learning sealing techniques was not smooth, it didn't prevent Naruto from bragging to Kurama at night.

"Big fox, I'm starting to learn sealing," Naruto smiled.

Kurama sighed deeply: "Humph."

Kurama said bitterly "When the old man was in this world, we had freedom"

"Then Madara tried to control us but Hashirama Senju defeated him & he distributed us like candy to villages, we are weapons for them now, all my brothers are tortured because we are tailed beasts, I tried to escape to save my brothers "

"But I could only wait for Mito to die because she knew sealing techniques. After finally waiting for Mito's life to end, Kushina comes, and the most annoying thing is that she also knows sealing techniques"

"I had no choice but to wait and was finally released, however, was sealed by that yellow-haired guy again, and it was still sealed in two halves"

Kushina's side doesn't need to think about it for the time being, so there is still some hope for this kid. Well, now this kid has also started to learn sealing techniques, and let the fox live!

This kid is also, you can learn if you want to learn. If you have time, you might as well tell the old man a few stories. I've heard more stories during this time, and the whole fox culture has improved. Just like the kid said, what is men of culture?

"Don't be so negative, big fox. Think about the good in everything. At least when I've mastered the sealing technique, I can improve your living environment."

Kurama said to Naruto: "Go away."

"Tsundere, Fox"

"Come here, brat!"

Spring ends and summer solstice arrives, and then autumn and winter come.

Naruto practised hard in winter and summer. From the village perspective, he was as strong as a calf. Although he never won against Kimimaro, he never lost against Sasuke. He felt like he could fight two or three people without a problem, uh, normally.

This year seemed to have gone by very fast. Kimimaro had long been the top student in his class, and almost no one in the senior class was his opponent.

With his current strength, there was no problem applying for early graduation, but Minato insisted that he finish Ninja School and make more friends.

A family of four sometimes went out together, went shopping, ate, and had picnics. It is worth mentioning that Minato liked Ichiraku ramen, Naruto liked the grilled meat and Kimimaro preferred a dessert shop with dango. Kushina... liked the rice cooked by Minato the most.

The ordinary life continued until the end of the year without any change, but on December 30, a small event made Naruto very happy.
