Chapter 99: CH 99
Naruto looked at Jiraiya before forming a cross-seal, "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Shadow Clone Jutsu)." Naruto filled the bridge with copies of himself that immediately went to work trying to cut the waterfall, "I just wanted to try it for myself before I had my Kage Bunshin do it. I have something I need to do for myself right about now."
Naruto jumped off of the bridge to the surface of the water and walked to shore before sitting down and getting into a meditative position. Jiraiya appeared at his side, "What are you going to do gaki?" Naruto looked up at Jiraiya, "I'm going to go into my mindscape so that me and the fox can hash out our little situation."
Jiraiya looked apprehensive, "That might not be such a good idea if its mad at you kid."
Naruto shook his head, "Why not? I mean we've been at each other's throats before but it blows over. We fuck with each other, I stopped being malicious about it years ago." Naruto shut his eyes and put his hands back in the ram sign.
Jiraiya grabbed his hands and broke his concentration again, "Don't. Remember when I told you that I was going to loosen the Kyuubi's seal to give you better access to its power? Well I did it the other night while you were asleep when I said I was going to check your seal. Haven't you felt yourself getting easier?"

Naruto nodded, "I figured that puberty was finally starting to make me nuts with all of the shots of testosterone. You're telling me it's because the Kyuubi's chakra is leaking out more steadily now?"
Jiraiya pulled Naruto's shirt up and revealed that the seal was showing even though Naruto wasn't doing anything, "Your body is adjusting to the influx of demonic chakra, though now it's more important than ever for you to control your emotions. It's now far easier for you to lose control when you become angered. You tried picking a fight with the Kyuubi a few minutes ago, I would have slapped you right then if I wasn't sure that it would have made you madder."
Naruto blushed out of embarrassment of being called out like that. It had been months since anyone had called him out for being overly emotional, having been in Root he took it somewhat personal that he was being told that he needed to control himself until he realized that he had been freer with his outbursts than even four months ago.
