He arrived at the agreed location.
It was a grove outside the village.
Kakashi leaned against a tree, a book in his hand.
"You're here?" He closed the book. "Are you ready?"
"I'm ready," Naruto said. "What are you going to teach me?"
"Lightning Release," Kakashi said.
"Lightning Release?" Naruto was stunned. "I can't use Lightning Release."
"That's why you need to learn," Kakashi said. "Your Chakra reserves are low right now, so you need to master some efficient offensive techniques."
"Lightning Release is one of them."
"It's fast and has great piercing power."
"It's well suited to your current situation."
Naruto thought it over.
"All right," he said. "How do we start?"
"First, we'll test your Chakra nature."
Kakashi took out a special piece of paper.
"This is Chakra paper," he said. "Infuse it with Chakra, and it'll reveal your Chakra nature."
Naruto took the paper and infused it with Chakra.
Half of it grew damp, while the other half tore apart.
"Water and wind," Kakashi said with a nod. "Just as I thought."
"Then how can I learn Lightning Release?" Naruto asked. "I don't have a lightning nature."
"You can cultivate one," Kakashi said. "Chakra natures can be developed through training."
"It'll be difficult, but it's not impossible."
"And..." He paused. "You have fragments of Kurama's Chakra left behind."
"Those fragments contain all of Kurama's Chakra natures."
"As long as you activate the lightning-natured part, you'll be able to use Lightning Release."
Naruto's eyes lit up.
"Really?"
"There's only one way to find out."
Kakashi began teaching Naruto how to sense the Chakra fragments inside him.
"Close your eyes and focus."
"Feel the flow of Chakra inside you."
Naruto did as he was told.
He closed his eyes and let his awareness sink into his body.
Chakra flowed
