After the exams, I went back home and passed out in my bed. Physically I felt fine, but the whole exam had taken a mental toll on me and the one-month rest would be much appreciated.

At least I had gotten a few important things done. I told sensei about the incoming attack on the leaf while trying to act as casual as possible. If he takes it seriously or not isn't my problem, but hopefully what I do somehow changes the future.

After I woke up I washed up and made my way to the hot springs in the village. I hadn't told Hinata to train together in a few days for no reason, there was someone important I had to meet before that.

I spent a few hours training above the hot springs water waiting for a certain pervy sage to show up. Ebisu wasn't a jonin for nothing, the pressure of not falling into the boiling water of the hot springs did actually help with perfecting chakra control. Of course, I didn't do the same training that the old Naruto did.

I summoned dozens of clones above the surface of the water all practicing water walking. All of these clones also had chakra blades in their hands that they were putting wind chakra into and were trying to maintain it for as long as possible. I didn't use the extended version of the wind blade that I used against Lee for the training, my chakra would run out way too quickly with all the clones keeping it up. Instead, I used Asuma sensei's version, which was still useful, just not very good at close ranges.

I made sure to take a break every hour or so when I felt my chakra reserves getting low, I didn't want to over exhaust myself and accidentally use the nine tails cloak. The point of the training was to better get at chakra control, more familiar with my wind chakra, and expend my chakra so more of the nine-tails chakra would leak into mine and increase my chakra capacity and stamina.

After a few one hour sessions of the training, I finally noticed a white-haired figure walk up next to the gap in the wall of the women's bathing area and start giggling with a creepy smile on his face.

I didn't really know what to do next, Ebisu wasn't here this time so I couldn't use him as an excuse to ask him to train me. Whatever I'll just go with the flow. He recognized me as Minato's son when he originally saw me. Hopefully, that happens again and he agrees to train me.

"Hey! You pervy old man what are you doing? Stop peeping at the women's bath," I shouted running up behind him.

I barely saw him move when flashed and the next instant I felt a hand covering my mouth," Shut up you little brat, how dare you interrupt my work."

I pulled his hand away from my face. " Who who are you, how did you move so fast?" I asked trying to act surprised. "Also what work? You were clearly just peeping at the women's bathing area. What kind of work could that be?"

"HaHa, Thanks for asking brat. I'm the sannin of Mt.Myoboku the Toad Sage," he said striking a pose.

I couldn't help but cringe a little as I said," At most you're a pervy sage, peeking like that. Doing that at your age is totally a crime."

"You little brat that was clearly for work! I'm a novelist working on my new book," he said while taking out a book from his robes.

"What novel? That's clearly just a nasty book! Help me with my training or I'll tell people I saw you peeping into the girl's bath."

I saw a look of hesitation on his face, and I think I knew why. If I remember correctly he almost got killed by a punch from the 5th Hokage, Tsunade, for peeping.

"Stupid brat you think you can blackmail me! No way will I help brats like you with training. I am a great sage after all," the pervy sage said.

" I knew it you're just a pervert!" I shouted. I was running out of ideas and the only thing I had left was regrading my self to use the sexy jutsu on this pervy old man.

"I'm not a pervert! I'm a super pervert," said the pervy sage, as I tried to keep down the urge I had to strangle him.

Just when I thought I would have to resort to the stupid sexy Jutsu Jiraya sensei spoke up again.

"Haha, I'm just joking you brat! Fine I'll help oversee your training, show me what you were doing before and I'll help you out," he said.

"Let's go," I couldn't help but celebrate as I ran back onto the top of the water.

After I was on the top of the water I pulled out my chakra blades and used my wind chakra to create the long wind blades. When I looked back at Jiraya sensei he had a surprised look on his face.
