Anyways the old man did as he had said and fixed whatever was going on with Naruto by the end of the day but it oddly felt like my friend was now more limited than before. Don't get me wrong his chakra felt the same as normal and he erfectly fine physically but I somehow got the impression that he had weights on for some reason. He was even able to pull off the e jutsu without a hitow. Not that this was really surprising sidering his chakra trol was good enough that even I was fih it.-

  "Look Kenzo I make es now too! So does this mean i learn that nature transformation stuff you did!?" The blonde asked excitedly while showing off his es.

  I shook my head "Those two things aren't eveely parable so don't go getting a big head. As a reward though I will teach you something that I'm sure you'll get some use out of even after you get out of the academy." I said with a smirk.

  I then pulled out a shuriken and attached a thin thread of chakra to it before throwing the shuriken at a tree. With a slight fliy fihough the shuriken swerved around the tree and stuto another behind it.

  "This is chakra thread manipution and using it you do things like what I just showed you and more, ied?" I asked know full well that he definitely would be.

  "I py so many pranks with something like this!" he said with aed looked that made me sort of want to hit him.-

  Only Naruto would take something with so many practical uses ae it into a tool for pranking people.

  "Regardless of what you pn to use it for you still o learn how first. Lets go step by step here since if I give you a vague expnation you'll be stuck for a stupid amount of time on it. First you o send chakra to one of your fingers like this." I said showing him my glowing pointer finger.

  He focused and after a few tries copied what I was doing though siderably worse since he was unfamiliar with this use of chakra unlike me.

  "Good now carefully push it outwards like this while trying to make it as thin as you ." I expined while showing him my own chakra narrowing like a e aending out to create a short but very thick thread.

  This step was siderably harder for him as he was uo get it even after an hour . I told him to practiore ter until he could create a thread like I did and even gave some advice how to make it easier like how a stable and even flow of chakra makes it simpler to create a thread. He swore that he'd get it figured out before I left again and I believed him as once he was motivated the sky was the limit for him.-

  I treated him to a meal at Yakiniku BBQ since I wasn't really feeling ramen at the moment ae a lot of meat that I had grilled sinaruto sucked at cooking. Not that I could bme him since he never had any i in actually learning how to ore than ramen cups and campfire roasted meat, a shinobi staple. It was actually a required topic to learn at the academy how to catch, and cook pretty muy sort of edible animal.-

  My own preference was typically geared towards fing pnts than hunting but I wasn't above killing off the sick or old animals to feed myself. I tried to leave the young ones alohough as I didn't like being the reason they never reached old age. Probably hypocritical I know but that was just the way I saw it. Anyways after eating Naruto headed home and I checked my parents home before heading to my little tree fort in the forest of death when I saw they weren't back yet.-

  The day I visited the local gambliablishments and got promptly kicked out of them after going on a hot winning streak earning thirty million ryo by betting ten milliht at the start. These pces had thought that I sucked at gambling like my sensei and thus could earn some easy money off me, they were wrong. Bckjad five card draw were my go to games and I lost much less than I won which eventually led the pces to kick me out as that was bad for their wallets.-

  Still I got my money a with a smile while the gambling house banned me for life. Left with a few hours to kill until Naruto got out of css I headed over to the hospital to lend a hand there since my sensei had givehe go ahead to use my training without her in the vilge. It was holy not all that busy beyond the standard civilian presence for flu, broken bones, cuts, scrapes and bruises. I busied myself treating these small injuries and illnesses for a few hours before meeting up with Naruto to tieag him how to create chakra threads.-

  By the time we were set to go eat dinner he had made goress as he had gotten the trol of his chakra to his fiable and was only struggling to create a thread from it. We ate at a stir fry pce this time that specialized in seafood rice with vegetables and egg. They had their own signature rice sauce that had a nice sweet and spicy thing going on but not like sugary sweet but more like fruit sweet. Naruto wasn't a huge fan of it but that was fine since everyone had their own preferences for fvors.-

  He teo prefer stro fvors and smooth umami ones while I liked spid sweet fvors with an added herbal kick if possible. My sensei oher hand enjoyed a mix of both meaty and sweet fvors with a little sourness from her alcoholic side. Like i said everyone erfectly entitled to their own preferences in this regard. Ohing i appreciated about Naruto was that despite being quite outgoing he wasn't the sort to try and push his own opinions on you for something like this. Morals and stuff like that was a different matter but otherwise he respected your opinion on things.-

  I got awo days before my sensei retty much doh being in the vilge as some of the political parties here were starting to bother her for one reason or another. As the st person in the vilge with the name Senju as well as being both the grand daughter of the first Hokage and the thirds disciple she held a lot of sway that they wao use to their advantage. So just like that I said my goodbyes once again and we headed out alongside Jiraiya "tally".
