Chapter 59: CH 59
The grin never slipped from his face, "Yes, she's pretty raw. But that's the beauty of it. If there is one thing that I know from personal experience, it's that a blank slate is probably the best thing for a ninja to be when they go into any kind of training. Give her some time and teach her right, she'll be just fine. And did I mention the chakra control?"
"Who is it brat?" Tsunade was interested in the program, and if Naruto had an idea of just who could be receptive to the training, why wouldn't she listen to him, "Is she one of the genin in your class?"
Naruto nodded, "Yeah, my teammate that didn't end up ditching the village, Sakura Haruno. Check her out, see if she's what you're looking for, and if she is get in touch with her."
Tsunade looked at him as he stood to make his way to the window once more, "What are you going to go do brat?"
Naruto yawned as he turned to face her, "I'm tired. I need some sleep and some time off. Give me at least a week and then give me a new assignment, the cracked bones really do suck for someone who runs around all day."
A smile came onto Tsunade's face, "I put you on medical leave for a bit anyway after you got back. I'll call you when I think you're ready again. You're getting at least a week off. Get some rest. But stop in later this week, I have something for you to do."
Naruto gave her a weak salute and jumped out of her window to exit.

Naruto arrived at his home that night as the stress of the last few days finally caught up with him. He gave a grunt of acknowledgement to Kankuro who was eating one of his cup ramen and watching his TV. The puppeteer almost choked on his food as he saw Naruto heading back to his bedroom and rushed to stop him.
As he stood in front of Naruto he could feel the killing intent radiating off of the haggard blonde, "You better have a damn good reason for blocking my way or my foot will have a damn good reason for sticking itself up your ass."
Kankuro pointed back towards his room, "I told you Temari took your bed. Well she's in there right now sleeping. If you value your testicles kid I wouldn't go in there."
