One hour ago…
Hinata blushed again as she watched her own face screw up in puzzlement.
"Damn, I still havn't got it"
"Na-na-naruto-kun the Byakugan is hard to master, it can take you years to learn to unlock it."
She blushed again as she watched her own face break out into a cocky grin "Whatever my body I'm Uzimaki Naruto, and I'll master this in under a week!" Naruto exclaimed. "How is the Kage Bunshin coming?"
"Um…well…"
Truthfully Hinata was scared, the Kage Bunshin was a jounin level jutsu, one she felt was far above her current level. In addition the charka she now wielded was…odd. She had always been proud of her precise charka control, when she wasn't under pressure of feeling nervous her control was exemplary, among the best in the Hyuuga…but because of the way they made her feel none of them knew this. However even when upset her charka always responded eagerly and quickly to her mental commands. Not so in this body, the charka seemed almost…surly, aggressive unwilling to follow instruction almost which defied all logic, charka was energy generated by a ninjas body, it couldn't be rebellious!
But so it seemed to be.
But with under Narutos open regard she ad to at least try to perform the jutsu.
Her hands flickered as she formed the requisite seals.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" she exclaimed.
The charka which had previously been so temperamental and unruly snapped into place, seemingly almost willig and eager to twist into this form. An amount of charka that dwarfed any she had ever felt flowed through her forming into clones…lots of clones…hundreds of clones…
And of course being surrounded by hundreds of clones of Uzimaki Naruto could have only one effect on Hyuuga Hinata…she freaked.
And 300 versions of her fled in all directions.
"And make sure to get that arrangement ready for the Hiruma family Ino." Inos' mother finished with a smile.
Shikamaru forced himself to return the smile, once she had left he sighed heavily. "Troublesome, very troublesome to have to do Inos' work" Bur he mused in her current state she was looking for any outlet for all her misplaced rage at her sudden body swap, the fact that her own jutsu had led to this situation was probably playing heavily on her mind as well. He swivelled to grab an assortment of flowers and winced, how in the name of the Hokages did she move around I this get up, it was far too tight and restrictive…especially around the chest…and she had something on under her top which had managed to get itself caught in her shirt which was intensely uncomfortable, he swore under his breath and began to remove her top, focused on resolving the painful issue.
Ino entered the shop just as he fully opened the top and released the bra's snag. "Ah that's amazing" he exclaimed.
He then noticed the large frame of Akimichi Chouji quaking with rage.
"SHIKAMARU, YOU PERVERT!"
"This…this isn't"
As Ino hurled herself at him and ploughed them both into the main flower display of the shop Shikamaru gloomily thought that he was going to end up paying all the damages for this.
The Konoha public baths were an important facility in the village, with the high stress
Lives ninjas led it was imperative to have a peaceful place to unwind, an island of calm in the ocean of violence that all ninja dwell within. Which is why it was so upsetting when two young naked genin barrelled through the baths at a rate of knots fighting like cats and dogs….well certainly one of them was fighting like a dog. Given also one of the combatants was the resplendent Uchiha Sasuke (though he was growling slightly more than usual) the outrage and anger came mainly from the male section of the baths, the kunoichi were too busy paying rapt attention, though they did intervene when the most uncouth Inuzuka boy forced the Tragic Uchiha Prodigy under the water and held him there. The common theory among the younger women was that Sasuke had spurned the love of the Inuzuka who he had attempted to drown him in his rage and grief. Men who pondered about what was his motive in first coating the Uchiha in shampoo and soap before hurling him into the water were firmly silenced.
The Office of the Hokage:
Now.
Tsunade surveyed the genin dejectedly. Instead of their usual upbeat and energetic manner they all looked downbeat and chastened. From a certain point of view this was correct, in total the damage from this mornings activities amounted to a considerable sum both in monetary terms and village harmony. On the plus sides the village gossips had never been happier.
Several of the young group of ninja also looked most dishevelled and dirty…particularly the ones who had had a change of gender forced upon them…She realised the full extent of this almost immediately…they would all have been too embarrassed to clean themselves…probably too embarrassed to even go to the toilet…
She slammed her desk to seize their attention.
"Right, I see many of you are embarrassed by your current bodies and are avoiding both bath and lavatory I understand your confusion and difficulty it is a complex problem" She exclaimed "Well that ends now, I have conferred with all the majour experts n the village and the best course of action to follow is that I will instruct you all in a medical jutsu you can use to remove pollutants from your body and also remove the first few layers of skin in effect washing and relieving yourself without the need to…
"Hey Tsunade-baba can I go to the toilet " whined the physical form of Hyuuga Hinata.
"Sure Naruto, now as I was saying this jutsu is both complex and taxing, it will not be easy to."
At that point Naruto reached the toilet door. "Henge no Jutsu" With a puff of smoke the form of Hyuuga Hinata was replaced with the form of Uzimaki Naruto, who sauntered into the chamber and noisily relieved himself.
While standing up.
There was a significant silence in the Hokages office as everyone's mind raced to find the explanation that both condemned everyone else for being a fool for not using a basic academy jutsu to solve their difficulty while AT THE SAME TIME explain why it was both impossible and unreasonable to expect them to come up with that same solution. Those who were currently very badly in need of a toilet break immediately gave up in favour of Hengeing to relieve themselves in a dignified manner.
"Wait!" Tsunade roared over the fight breaking out over the toilet, "While this solution works in the short term long term maintenance of a Henge is both difficult and dangerous, none of you will maintain one for more than a few minutes"
She waited for everyone to finish and both resume their original forms and refocus their attentions on her.
"Also I am sorry about this but tomorrow you will all have to return for your new temporary team assignments and C rank missions "
While all this played out, deep within the body of Uzumaki Naruto, the greatest of the Tailed Demons stirred restlessly and cursed the Fourth, even with the departure of Narutos soul the seal while now holed still contained and bound the Kyuubi, he could not leave this cursed mortal form. However he could more readily read and communicate with the soul that now inhabited the prison of flesh he resided in.
He carefully reviewed the young Heiress mind and smiled.
He could offer Naruto only power there was nothing else the Kyuubi possessed that he would desire , and the young boy was not fool enough to take that bargain save on his own terms.
But the girl while no less strong willed, did burn for something he did possess, would give ANYTHING for it.
Kyuubi chuckled, now all he need do was wait for an opportunity to converse more…properly with his new landlord and see what changes could be made to the lease.
