"That's right Kaa-san. Are you mad at me?" Naruto asked and was ready to get hit like he always was from Sakura. Kushina looked at her son who was ready to accept her punishment and while Kushina did worry over it, she wasn't going to hit Naruto for it.
Instead, she lightly smacked Naruto upside the head making the blonde yelp. The redhead then took Naruto into a hug making the blonde gasp.
"It's alright sochi. I'm here for you. I'm not mad just surprised. So tell me, how were you in Konoha?" Kushina asked and the small look on Naruto's face told her she was going to regret that question.
How right she was when Naruto told her about his early life and all the loneliness he felt. Kushina felt so downhearted about the whole thing. She apologized multiple times throughout the story and it took Naruto multiple times to assure the redhead that he had been over it. He told her that most of the village had accepted him and the people he cared for.
He told her about his dreams of being Hokage and Kushina chuckled that Naruto really was her son. She had said the same thing back when she was younger than him. It did make her happy that her son had the same dream as her. Soon enough Naruto told her his entire life and Kushina smiled while looking at the sky.
"You did a good job Sochi. I can't believe you beat a Hyuuga. Those arrogant pricks," Kushina said making Naruto sweatdrop. The blonde was seeing how late it was and sighed, but he didn't want to stop talking to his mother just yet.
"So Kaa-san, Ero-sennin told me that you really knew how to handle a sword," Naruto said and Kushina raised an eyebrow. Somewhere she remembered that name, but she for all her life couldn't remember where.
"Ero-sennin?" Kushina said and Naruto grinned before whispering in her ear. Kushina widened her eyes and smiled. Jiraiya was still up to his no good trick as usual and now he was teaching her son? Oh there was going to be some observation on her part.
"So tell me Naruto-kun. Did Jiraiya train you like me and Minato wanted?" Kushina asked and Naruto widened his eyes. Kushina stared at him and Naruto narrowed his eyes.
"When was he supposed to train me? I've only just met Ero-sennin around the Chunin exams," Naruto said and it was Kushina's turn to widen her eyes.
"You mean he didn't look after you like I told him too," Kushina said and Naruto shook his head. Kushina's hair covered her eyes and she gave a small chuckle while her hands gripped her clothes.
"What about Tsunade? She told me she'd look after you as your Godmother," Kushina said and Naruto shook his head. The mother of Naruto chuckled even more as the Ki rolled off her body. Her hair started to raise in an odd way the blonde backed away.
"So they didn't raise him like Minato and I asked them to huh?" Kushina thought and slowly calmed down.
Oh she would have a few good words with those two about responsibilities and the such. However luckily for them, Naruto managed to distract her thought with another question.
"So where you good with a sword Kaa-san?" Naruto asked and Kushina turned to her son. She smiled at him wanting to know more about her and nodded.
"That's right Sochi. Your mother was really good. I really struck the fear into most people who saw me. Really only your father and the Kage passed me. Hehe, if Tsunade wasn't around then I might have been known as the strongest woman in Konoha," Kushina said with pride. Naruto's eyes gleamed and he looked at his mother in a new light. Kushina looked up at the sky again and smiled.
"Well sochi it's late. Maybe you should go now," Kushina said and Naruto got to his feet. He turned to his mother and watched her raise also.
"So are you coming back with me?" Naruto asked. Kushina thought over the question. She wasn't sure if Naruto would be able to explain to Jiraiya about her, but she didn't want to leave her son after meeting him. She had missed a bit of his life and didn't want to be out of it anymore.
Naruto could see her thinking it over and the blonde wondered how the hell he would explain this to Jiraiya. He would be suspicious of Naruto and then the blonde would have to tell the old sage his secret.
Granted he did really want it to be a secret, but it was starting to turn out that way. Naruto had to remember Kakashi's lesson. Deception was a shinobi's greatest tool. Naruto thought it over for a little longer and soon his eyes gleamed.
The blonde turned to his mother and motioned for her to come to him. Kushina raised an eyebrow and leaned forward while Naruto whispered in her ear. Kushina widened her eyes and smiled. That was just like her son.
