One year had gone by since Naruto had started training with the Kyuubi. While Kushina had promised to train Natsumi and Naruto for the upcoming Ninja Academy, Naruto was not very convinced at her teaching...

The thing is civilians are forbidden from learning any jutsu for the safety of the village's secrets. Naruto and Natsumi were considered civilians because they were not even in the academy.

...So Kushina refused to teach them a single jutsu till they graduated. Natsumi being the adorable naïve little girl she was believed her and did what she said. She would follow Kushina's every instruction on improving her body and Taijutsu...

...Naruto was a different case. He refused to train with Natsumi and Kushina which caused a wedge to form between the happy little family. Don't get him wrong he loved his mother VERY much, as much as he would lay down his own life for hers but it was just a simple...Disagreement of opinions between them. Naruto had always declined Kushina's offer to train him...Oh no, Naruto was not as short sighted as his sister. He knew that taijutsu and your muscle power, strength and stamina could only take you so much far...

When the actual life and death moment comes it's all up to your ninjutsu or Genjutsu skills. That's why he trained differently than Natsumi or Kushina. He worked his ass off on emotion control for the last year and it had bore its results too. Now instead of rushing in blindly like he would have preferred earlier he actually made plans and strategized. And his emotion control had finally gotten his control over darkness. He could channel dark chakra from each and every body part now. Mostly his arms. It had taken Naruto 6 months to keep his dark emotions like rage, hatred, etc in control. Finally after getting a control of his dark emotions he learnt to channel those emotions into dark chakra.

He discovered many interesting properties about his dark chakra. Firstly that his darkness could be molded into ANY form he wished it to...Currently he could only make a football with dark chakra though...Secondly...His dark chakra was toxic to anyone who came in contact with it. The dark chakra was especially good at decaying. He could decay or decompose anything with his dark chakra. Those things which were touched by dark chakra just...rot away for a lack of words.

Naruto had capitalized heavily on this feature. Of course he had not learnt any offensive, defensive or supporting ninjutsu with his dark chakra...Well decomposing anyone who dared to stand against him was far faster, better and more efficient than just fighting with fists and punches right?

Kyuubi, or rather Kyuu-chan, as Naruto had taken to calling her affectionately had taken advantage of the decaying capabilities of his dark chakra and suggested Naruto a taijutsu stance that was rather...lacking in itself BUT when you combined that stance with usage of dark chakra...Let's say the opponents body would decay without a trace before they could blink. Kyuubi's taijutsu stance relied heavily on injecting dark chakra into his opponent so that the opponent's body would wither away as if it never was there. Naruto was very impressed by his stance. It revolved around a fluid stance that was flexible and mainly revolved around touching as much as the opponents body as possible. And with each touch some amount of dark chakra was channeled into them which can decompose them altogether.

Naruto was still nowhere near achieving Shikai. Although he had started to use a Bokken (wooden sword) that he made himself with an old Oak tree. He had practiced with his self-made bokken for one year so that he could use his Zanpakuto when the time comes. Kushina had bought Naruto and his sister some Kunai and Shuriken on their 6th birthday but she refused to teach them how to use them...

Naruto didn't care. He would not need any weapon as long as he had dark chakra. He could decompose an opponent's body with his hands and some dark chakra channeling.
