He personally leaned against a tree, resting after having created so many clones. He could usually create about fifty or so before he got winded, doubling that he felt the draw on his reserves and wanted a quick break to let them rest up. He supposed because of his Ninjutsu skill being so high, it allowed him to create more clones.
His hand twitched as he felt eight clones suddenly dispel, being burnt to death by an uncontrolled Amaterasu. This was going to take some time.
After about two hours, and sending over a hundred more replacement clones out to those learning the Dojutsu he had, one of his clones came over to him. "Hey boss, Ino is here." The clone said
Naruto opened his eyes and stood up. "Alright, head over to some place where you won't get in the way." Naruto said before he headed over to a dumbstruck Ino that was staring at all the clones. "Impressed?" Naruto asked.
Ino jumped and turned to look at him. "Yeah, I mean…you've come a long way. You used to not be able to perform a Clone, and now you have a few dozen milling about? Why do they look to be doing the training though?" Ino asked
Naruto glanced over at his clones. "They're solid Chakra constructs Ino. This means they can interact with things unlike the Standard Clone technique. However, they also use up a ridiculous amount of chakra to make even one. Because I have a ridiculous amount of chakra to spare, I can create them and they can train for me, to an extent. Physical stuff I still have to do, but they could learn a new Jutsu or fighting style." Naruto explained.
Ino looked amazed, it was impressive to hear. "Think you can teach me?" she asked
Naruto shook his head. "It would kill you, literally, to make just one right now Ino. Besides, Ji-san made me promise not to teach anyone the move."
"Wait, Ji-san? I thought you were an orphan." Ino said crossing her arms.
Naruto shrugged. "He's more like a surrogate grandfather. Besides, I hate calling him the Sandaime Hokage."
Ino's eyes widened. "Wait, the Hokage lets you call him Ji-san?" she asked surprised.
Naruto nodded. "Like I said, surrogate grandfather." He said before putting his sword over by his clones and walking over towards the more spacious clearing. "I'm sure you're dying to know about this wager." Naruto said cracking his knuckles and then his neck before doing some basic stretches.
Ino nodded. "This better not be anything perverted Naruto, or I swear I will hurt you." Ino said
Naruto held his hands up. "No, nothing of the sorts." He said. "I'll just be helping you realize what I was saying was true. If you train more, you'll not only enhance your Shinobi abilities, but also your looks." He said.
Ino nodded slowly watching her fellow blonde. "And how will this wager do that?" she asked
Naruto stood up and entered a loose fighting stance, his hands up ready to protect his head. "We fight." He said. "Nothing seriously maiming and no killing, but an actual fight. I'll just be using the Substitution because I'm a little worn out from making as many clones as I have." Naruto said. "If you win, I will take you clothes shopping with all the money I've saved up in doing missions. I have quite a bit saved up, since I don't really buy much except for Ramen. All you need to do to win, is land one solid hit on me that wasn't blocked, parried, or otherwise intercepted."
Ino nodded, sounded easy enough. "What do you get if you win? How do you win?" she asked
"For the next two months, you go on a strict training schedule of my design, including a new diet that will compliment it. As for how I win, I just have to completely tire you out until you collapse." Naruto said.

Ino nodded. This sounded like an easy win for her. "Then let's get this started!" she exclaimed before rushing Naruto. Taijutsu really wasn't her forte, but she doubted the blonde would let her get off her family's technique.
Naruto ducked under a wide right hand, blocked the left going for his center, leaned back from Ino's second right hand, and twisted to the side to avoid her kick to his legs. It was all very much basic academy stuff, but she made it work. Naruto then stepped in, blocking Ino's left hook towards his face with his right arm and slammed his left fist into her stomach, knocking the wind out of her. Naruto then followed up with a strong kick to her upper thigh, and an open palm thrust to her sternum, forcing her back.
Ino panted, trying to regain her breath from Naruto's initial punch. Damn, she had expected an easy win, but Naruto was proving to be a tougher competitor than she had thought. Even worse, he didn't even look winded. She flipped through the hand signs for the basic clone and leapt back, three forming and moving around with her, trying to confuse the blonde into which was the real and which wasn't. With her clones, Ino drew two kunai and threw them at the blonde.
Naruto watched as Ino and her clones through Kunai at him and he performed a quick Substitution, watching as they struck the wood. He leapt behind Ino, and swept out her feet from under her, before rolling away as he realized he swept out a clone. Naruto stood up on his hands, and using the increase of acrobatics, he lashed his foot out, connecting with Ino's upper arm. She tried to go for a kick to his arms, but he rolled backwards, away from her.
