Naruto: The Time Looper

It was at this moment that he heard the familiar notification sound from the system inside his mind.

[ Ding~! ]

[ User has completed Mission: Thwart Madara Uchiha's plans ]

[ Partial Success, Rewards will be lowered ]

[ Recalculating Rewards ]

[ Rewards have been calculated! ]

[ System has changed Rewards due to Hidden Task being accomplished! ]

[ User has gained 3% Blood Line Activation, User has gained a random chakra nature. ]

[ Ding~! ]

[ User has gained Water Chakra Release! ]

Kazuo stopped, his body frozen as he looked at the notifications that kept piling up one after another in front of his eyes.

He however wasn't focused on the rewards at all.

'I fucking knew it wasn't going to be that easy with that old fucker.' Kazuo thought as he stared at a single notification he had gotten from his system.

[ Partial Success ]

'That means that Madara still has plans, maybe a full success would have been killing Madara or stopping Rin's pseudo-death though it's more probable to be the first guess. Meaning either Obito will get caught and manipulated again or Madara will simply select another Uchiha.' Kazuo thought as he released a long-winded sigh.

Finally, his eyes turned toward his rewards.

[ User Bloodline has reached 8% ]

[ User has completed another Mission! ]

[ Survive the Kiri Mission. ]

[ User has gained Yin Release Chakra Nature. ]

'Two chakra natures as well as a 3% bloodline increase. Unfortunately, it's not the chakra nature that I would have preferred.' Kazuo thought as he felt like releasing another sigh of disappointment.

He had wanted Earth and Lightning Nature, if those two had been given by the system then he would have likely been able to create his second Kekke Genkai, the Explosion Release.

Unfortunately, he had been given Water and Yin release, Two chakra natures that he rarely if ever used jutsu from.

'I at least have some water Jutsu, I don't have any Yin release Jutsu at all.' Kazuo thought in annoyance before quickly swiping the notifications away.

It was at this moment that the door in front of him opened.

It was Kushina Uzumaki.

"What are you standing there for, come inside Kazuo." Kushina immediately berated him as soon as she saw him.

'She sensed my chakra.' Kazuo thought as he gave a sheepish nod in return.

Entering inside, he quickly saw Obito, Kakashi, Rin, and Minato sitting around the sofa in the living room.

"Hey guys~!" Kazuo said as he gave the four a wave of his hand.

"So you're now fully part of our team Kazuo!" Obito said, his voice clearly excited, so different from how it had been yesterday.

'Seem's like he's back to his usual self.' Kazuo thought as he gave a soft nod and sat down next to Kakashi.

"Yeah, It's been a while now. Either way, seems like the sealing was a success." Kazuo said as he turned to stare at Rin Nohara.

She clearly looked different.

Her pupils were feline-like and her front teeth had almost fully become sharp fangs, thankfully there didn't seem to be any more side effects.

"Yeah!, But as Minato Sensei said, I'll have to start my chakra training from the beginning." Rin replied with an excited voice.

"I see, good luck then Rin-chan," Kazuo replied with a soft smile.

At his words, Kazuo clearly felt Obito turn to stare at him in annoyance.

*Chuckle*

Kazuo heard Minato release a soft chuckle as he stared at Obito.

"Anyway, I was planning to ask for your help Minato sensei."

At his words, Minato turned toward Kazuo and raised an eyebrow.

"With?"

"I've wanted to learn sealing for a while now, It would help me greatly with my kekke genkai," Kazuo replied as he turned to stare at his sensei.

"Sure, I can help you out Kazuo," Minato replied with a nod and a soft smile of his own before he got up from the sofa and headed to his office.

A few minutes later he returned with a pile of papers and an ink pen.

"The first thing you need to do is get good at calligraphy, It's the most essential part of Sealing," Minato said before pushing the stack of papers and the pen to Kazuo as well as a small blue book.

'Sealing for a dumbass.'

"Am i a dumbass sensei?" Kazuo asked almost immediately as soon as he saw the title.

"No, That's just the name the author used, you can say that I'm a dumbass as well since that's the book I used at the beginning as well. It's an Uzumaki book that was made for outsiders." Minato replied with a soft chuckle.

"You can ask me for help whenever you want as well Kazuo~!" Kushina interjected at this moment as Kauzo opened the sealing book.

Lifting his head, Kazuo gave a nod to Kushina before turning his attention back to the book.

Minutes turned into Hours as Kazuo got completely immersed in the Sealing book, all the sounds around him becoming dull as he ignored them.

It was only three hours later that Kazuo lifted his head.

"I don't understand anything." 

"Huh?" Obito subconsciously said as he turned toward Kazuo.

"Nothing at all?" Minato raised an eyebrow as he turned to look at Kazuo.

"Nothing at all," Kazuo replied, his voice clearly tinged with annoyance as he dropped the book onto the table and leaned back before releasing a long sigh.

"Don't be too disappointed Kazuo, sealing just isn't for everyone," Minato said in what Kazuo could clearly infer as a comforting voice.

"It doesn't matter, I wasn't planning on mastering sealing jutsu, I just wanted to learn some of the basic seals and I can just memorize those," Kazuo said as he turned toward Minato and asked.

"Is it possible to learn the Explosion tag and possibly the storage seal without actually learning the basics of how seals work?"

"It is though you won't be able to create high-tier explosion tags or storage seals but at least basic ones should be possible."

"All right then I want to learn that Minato sensei, can you teach me." 

"I'll teach you," Kushina said as she walked out of the kitchen and sat next to Kazuo before quickly grabbing the ink pen and drawing a set of Kanji Characters.

"This is normal ink instead of sealing ink so it should be fine as long as you don't inject chakra into it. Practice these writing these kanji until you can replicate them perfectly."

"All right thanks," Kazuo replied as he was once more focused, dulling every sound around him and only focusing on writing the kanji on the paper in front of him.

"He sure works hard, unlike someone," Kakashi said dully as stared at Kazuo.

"Im shocked honestly. I thought he would master sealing in one go just like he did the other jutsu." Rin said absently as she gazed at Kazuo who was scribbling characters on the paper.

"What do you guys mean?" Obito questioned as he turned to stare at the two.

"Kazuo's a genius, he surpasses me," Kakashi replied.

"Huh, no way. I have to compete with another Kakashi, what have I done wrong in this life!" Obito practically screamed as he stood up.
