Minato then had a please look on his face. "Well we helped you with your fuinjutsu. I know we helped you with that." He said but both parents were a little taken back when Tsunade scoffed from her spot. "No you didn't. Jiji helped me with my fuinjutsu. All you did was give me a book on level one fuinjutsu when I was six. The rest Jiji taught me or I taught myself."
Kushina looked ready to say something but held it back and realized he was right. "What level are you at in fuinjutsu?" Minato asked rather delicately as Kushina leaned in.
"I'm just starting level five." He said plainly as his parents looked surprised at the answer.
'Level five? I only started level five when I was thirteen.'Kushina thought while Minato was in the same boat.
"Neither of you helped me with anything nor did Kakashi and that pervert of a Sannin Jiraiya," He said which surprised Minato and Kushina since he normally called Jiraiya Uncle Jiraiya or when he was very little grandpa. They guessed he grew out of it. "Shizune nee-chan help me with my chakra control and taught me the uses of poisons and some medical ninjutsu, Tsunade sensei taught taijutsu with Guy-sensei and conditioning my body while jiji taught me ninjutsu and fuinjutsu. Nowhere in the last six years did either of you actually help me.
"As for the jutsu I took them from your library yes but I made my own copies of the scrolls and then put the originals back.
"And the rasengan? Naruto that was an A ranked jutsu and a dangerous one at that and one enemies would love to get a hold of."
"Well I needed some kind of ace in the hole for the exams. I am grateful for learning the super strength from Tsunade sensei but I needed a last resort card. Something no one would see coming. Deception is part of being a shinobi after all."
Kushina then spoke. "Naruto how long did it take you to master the rasengan?" She asked since she knew it took Minato around three years to create and Jiraiya and Kakashi spent months learning it.
Naruto just looked at her. "I got the basics down in a week then refined it during the month." He said leaving both parents gob smacked.
Now both parents including Tsunade looked at him in shock. One week to learn the rasengan was unheard of. In fact it bordered on the downright impossible. Minato, Jiraiya and Kakashi, three of Konoha's best shinobi had been out shined by newly made chunin.
"Naruto if you wanted to learn the rasengan so badly then I would have showed you how to." He said but Naruto looked away.
"If I had asked you all you would have done was brush me off as always and told me you were too busy or that you needed to help the twins." Minato looked down as he began to see that Naruto might have been right when Kushina looked at her son sadly with concerned eyes.
"We would have trained you if you had asked us Naru-chan. I don't remember you asking for much help." She said and both saw Naruto look at her in disbelief at the question.
"Ask you? ASK YOU?!" He said shouting at them as Tsunade shook her head. "You are my parents. I shouldn't have to ask you."
"For the first four years that I training to be a shinobi all I ever did was ask you to help me and train me. But every time you brushed me off for the twins. You pushed me aside like I didn't even matter and Eiji and Mito got everything."
"I understand for the first year or two since they were babies and needed the added attention but neither of you ever even tried. It was Mito this, Eiji that. And then Mina was born and then things got even worse. Now I don't hate my sibling, far from it I love each of them very dearly. But do you know how hard it was seeing you spend so much time with them and having no time ever for me for almost six years straight."
"You were supposed to be my parents and you let me down because you favored your other children over your oldest when you should have treated them equally."
After his rant was finish he wiped away a stray tear that went down his face and turned around and left the office leaving two very stunned parents behind. Tsunade still with her back leaned against a wall sighed.
"I hope you realize the damage you have caused to him." She said finally speaking up and drawing the attention of the stunned blonde and red head.
Neither said anything at first, they just sat there playing over what Naruto had said to them as if trying to figure out what they just saw and heard actually happened. Minato struggled with is wording as he spoke. "That…what Naruto said. I-I was not true was it? I mean did w…..we favor the others more so then with Naruto. I just don't know what to make of this." He said still struggling with what he just saw and heard.
Kushina shook her head defiantly. "It can't have been true. We would not favor our younger children over our eldest. I know it. It has to be some kind of mistake. Naruto….he…he is just confused and he is tired that's all. He needs his rest, the exams were taxing on him."
Tsunade narrowed her eyes and walked over to the pair and stood a little in front of Kushina. When she did a loud slap echoed through the office and Kushina went stumbling back and dropped to the ground.
