'The facts are a kekkei genkai ain't much different from a family jutsu except the first one is inherited by bloodlines and the second comes from hard work and hard thinking. Not that I wouldn't mind a bloodline, but it would just mean I would have to make up jutsu for using it in new ways. I bet I could find a hundred uses for the Byakugan or the Sharingan that an Uchiha or a Hyuuga couldn't think of doing.' considered the boy as he gathered his things so he could visit the Hokage Tower to debrief the hokage.
'Still, I might move towards the family jutsu instead since it requires more effort usually to get it to work right. I also like the idea of passing these jutsu down to my children so they could use them and think of me when they do. Still most of them tend to have a theme to them, while most of my jutsu seems to range in variety. Still, I'm glad I read the section on my jutsu and learned about that trick with the Shadow Clones which can increase my learning time. It's going to come in handy when I use it to create my super cool new jutsu when I get the time to use it.' thought the young man as he went over the systems of the Gencom.
'Can't wait to see the effects of the Gencom on Granny Tsunade, even if it means I can't call her Granny anymore with the reverse aging thing. I sure hope she's happier now that she got a second chance at life and this time might have the luck to find somebody. Somebody she won't loose to war or sickness, anything bad like that. She's done so much to help people, it's time for me to help the universe to pay her back. I should really look for someone for her when I get the time with my laptop. I also want to check out my girl friends are doing after the changes I made with them, might cheer me up after all of the time away from the village. Business first, then I get to have fun with my fellow genin.'
'I wonder if I should make some similar changes to the male genin as well? Maybe make them more attractive to the female gender so they could have the edge over the kunoichi of other villages. Improve their skills with their bodies and jutsu as well. I could even fix bushy-brows' chakra coils so he can use ninjutsu and genjutsu, even if he gets those back I'm positive he'll still be a master of taijutsu. Still, I'm not sure that he would like it especially now. I could find a way to get him access to more taijutsu, rare ones that no one has seen in years or ever. Could get some good powerful weapons for Tenten as well. I have to think hard about it, not my greatest strength at all. Pervy Sage's training had helped me with all of the strategy stuff I was missing in school, when most of the teachers were looking for a way to fail me.'
Naruto was also rehearsing in his mind the things he would be telling the hokage of his training as well as the sales pitch for him to try and find Sasuke to get him to return to the village. Another battle in his head raged on this point as well since he could just alter the mind of his former teammate, so Sasuke could return home where he belonged. The gut of the fox boy was saying wishing this to happen with some kind of work process wasn't going to make all of the suffering he and his village had faced with the defection worth it. There would also be a major sticking point Naruto wanted to face...
'I want to kick Sasuke's ass for all of the trouble he put everyone through. Like a few good rasengans to his belly or even his butt might be part of the price tag. Watching me prove that Sharingan of his ain't so great would also be a bonus, or showing off the fact the dead last had passed him with skills. Just want to get on to a battlefield with just the two of us and knock some sense into his thick skull, even if I have to crack it so the sense has some place to go in. Then I can fulfill my promise to Sakura-chan about bring the last Uchiha back home.'
'I just have to find the right words to convince her to let me do this, once I get a team together to make sure I have some back up. I got to be prepared for he and Pervy Sage to try and convince me that Sasuke is a lost cause, like Orochimaru was to them. I know if I can just work hard enough or fight tough enough, I can complete the promise. I gave my word I would do it and it is my nindo, my ninja way, to never go back on my word. I have to do this not only for Sakura-chan, but for my own personal honour and sense of duty. Or I might as well quit trying to become the most powerful hokage in all of history.'
So it was for the last few kilometers to the tower, Naruto was gathering his arguements for taking up the task he want to commit to. This seemed to stretch out the time to make the walking seem like forever before he arrived at the front doors of the tower. Steeling himself for the meeting with his elders, he stood motionless for a minute before opening the door to enter.
