Chapter Start

"Sir Team Shadow has just reported back." A woman said as the Hokage nodded. The Hokage wore, a red full-length kimono tied by a white sash, and he wore his Hokage hat and haori he was currently smoking from a pipe as he nodded. He had just sent team shadow to help protect a wealthy merchant. "Very well send them in." The secretary nodded and left to get them.

The first to entire was Radio Namaishi. He had a weal-like scar on his face running across the bridge of his nose and down his left side. He had brown spiky hair, dark eyes, and wore the standard jounin attire "Radio Namaishi reporting in Hokage-Sama."

The second on to entire was a woman whom was in full Anbu clothes along with wearing a white tiger mask as well as a katana on her back, her hair was long as two strands framed her face and went down to just above her breast, the back of it tied into a single bun "Tiger, reporting in Hokage-Sama." She said as the Hokage nodded to her as the final team member entered.

A male entered the room he had short brown hair which hung over his forehead protector and dark eyes. He wore a black sleeveless shirt, black pant, he also had on Anbu armor, and a sword was strapped to his back "Kage reporting in Hokage-Sama." Sarutobi nodded to them all.

Team Kage was led by two Jounin's and one Anbu. The two Jounins would be there as active muscle while the Anbu would stay in the back ground as if she was reinforcements in the shadows for when the two jounin couldn't act because of some unforeseen incident. The idea was purposed by Shukaku and surprisingly it was working greatly.

"I see I take it the mission was a success." They all nodded as the Hokage nodded. "Very well then you may leave." The Hokage dismissed shocking the trio. Usually they have to give indebt reports.

"Hokage-Sama is something the matter?" Radio asked as Sarutobi sighed.

"I am simple going over this year's graduates. It seems as if Naruto as finally passed." He informed as their eyes widened. Each of them was wondering when he would pass. Each of them owed him a debt. They had all been a genin squad together and their sensei had been Kushina Uzumaki Naruto's mother.

"So Sensei's son finally passed." Radio said with a grin as the Hokage nodded.

"Yes, however…" Sarutobi said with a sigh as each of them grew series. Something was wrong. They had all been forced away from Naruto. If they had gotten close Iwa or Kumo might have attacked. They had been assured by Kakashi that he would look after Naruto.

"Is something wrong with Naruto?" Tiger asked as she looked forward as anyone could hear the worry in her voice. It was then the Hokage knew what he could do. The council would get mad but truthfully he only allowed what they had been planning because of lack of options.

"They plan to use Naruto Uzumaki as a stepping stone for Sasuke Uchiha." He said as they all grew silent. "They want to pair them two up in order to boost Sasuke's confidence, they wish for Naruto to get beaten bad enough where he will eventually quiet being a ninja."

Each of them had rage boiling inside of them as Kage spoke. "What of Kakashi." He said quietly as the other two looked at him waiting for an answer.

"It seems this was all Kakashi's idea."

"WHAT THE FUCK!" Radio shouted out as Tiger put an arm up stopping him.

"Hokage-Sama we were insured Kakashi would look after him it was why we stepped down." Kage said as he sighed.

"He had me fooled too. It seems Kakashi would often skip patrols allowing him to get beaten by the villagers, he would often have another Anbu confirm he stopped them when usually the villagers would believe he was dead and leave. He is only alive thanks to his healing factor. I have only recently figured this out." Sarutobi said to them.

"And you will go with his suggestion after what he did to Naruto." Tiger said as Sarutobi sighed.

"I wouldn't if there was another choice. Kakashi said this idea in front of other Jounins. Asuma would have if he didn't already pick to train the new Ino-Shika-Cho trio. Kurenai can't because she hand-picked her own time before hand. Along with this the other Jounins don't care for Naruto or wanted him to quit."

Tiger looked and saw Kage and Radio ready to argue however she knew an easy way to stop it. "Hokage-Sama, I request Naruto Uzumaki as my apprentice." Kage and Radio's eyes locked on her as they hadn't expected them words. The Hokage grinned behind his hat.

"I see then, however you will have to give up Anbu and take your true name again." She nodded and took her tiger mask off, showing her storm grey eyes. "Very well then I Hiruzen Sarutobi Sandaime Hokage accept your apprentice ship you are now the sensei of Naruto Uzumaki, Komachi do you accept."

Sarutobi said as Komachi nodded and stop her mask on her hip as she saluted to the Hokage. "I accept Hokage-Sama but may I ask one thing first." Sarutobi raised a brow and nodded.

"May Radio and Kage help me train Naruto." Sarutobi blinked he hadn't expected that usually a sensei would train them alone but this would be good.

"Yes however they will have their own assignments, while they are in Konoha and not on a mission they can assist however they want." He said as she nodded. "Now then you will meet him tomorrow I will inform the council and Kakashi of this, you are dismissed." Then each of them vanished.

Naruto was now grinning as he was in his seat. Naruto's outfit consisted of an orange tracksuit with blue on the upper shoulders area as well as around the waist, a white swirl with a tassel on the left side, a red swirl on the back, a large white collar, orange pants, blue sandals, a black undershirt, and a blue forehead protector.

He listened as teams where called out by Iruka but then he began to frown as there would be one odd man. "An team Ten will be Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara, and Choji Akamachi led by Asuma Sarutobi." Naruto blinked and decided to speak.

"What about me sensei?" Naruto asked as Sakura turned around and spoke.

"Just leave, you probably stole that forehead protector anyways baka!" Sakura said as Naruto was about to get hit by Sakura only for a woman to appear and grab Sakura's hand tightly. Naruto had flinched knowing Sakura was about to hit him but then when he looked up after not feeling anything he saw a woman dressed in Anbu clothes without a mask.

"I would very much appreciate it if you didn't hit my new apprentice." She said as she let go of Sakura. "I am Komachi and I will be your new Sensei Naruto. I have come to get you." She said as Naruto blinked.

"Huh but who else is on my team?" He asked.

"It will by only us unless you want to repeat another year that is." Naruto's eyes widened as he spoke quickly.

"No, no I will do anything but that!" Naruto said as she chuckled.

"You know you are early they still haven't had lunch yet." Iruka said to her.

"That is only for those with teams since it will only be me and Naruto there is no need." Iruka nodded as she went to the door. "Come along Naruto and just to let you know we will be team seven." She said as Naruto nodded. "Also the once who were announced team seven will be team three as ordered by the Hokage if you disbelieve then take it up with him." Iruka nodded as her and Naruto left.

Naruto was now in a clearing looking at his sensei beside them was a large forest with a gate around it. "Uhm sensei what are we doing here?" He asked as she spoke.

"Naruto before anyone is considered a genin they must go through one test by their sensei to prove they are worthy to be genin. Usually it would be a spar of some kind, or team work training. However since you will not have anyone else you will be given a harder test." Naruto nodded to her.

"Tomorrow morning come here and do not bring anything." She said as Naruto blinked and nodded to her. As he left a woman appeared beside Komachi. She had on a large tan trench coat, a fishnet shirt, an orange skirt, two black belts, blue shinobi sandals, and a Konoha forehead protect. Her hair was purple and put into a spiked ponytail as she spoke.

You sure the brat can handle this exersize?" She said as Komachi nodded.

"Yes I think he can thanks again Anko for letting me use the training grounds." Anko grinned.

"No problem, though remember you owe me Dango and Sake!" She said as Komachi sighed and nodded.

The next Day

/

Naruto arrived at the grounds only wearing his jumpsuit as he saw Komachi appear in the grounds. "Alright then Naruto are you ready for your test?" He nodded to her as she then pulled out a pair of pants. "Take you clothes of an change into this." She said as he blinked. "Naruto do not make me force you."

"But why do I have to change sensei?" Naruto asked as his sensei through the pants at him.

"Because I said so." Naruto went to change privately as he came back after chaining his pants. "Jacket and Shirt off." He blinked at her as narrowed her eyes. Naruto took his jacket and shirt off leaving him only in the pants she gave him. "Now then your test is simple, for one week you will be living in that forest. This is to see how you survive in the wilderness."

"Also if you take one step outside the forest, you will fail this. If you give you fail. If you die you fail." She said as he gulped. "I warn you know this forest is feared even by chunins the monsters in here are giant and ferocious. This is your last chance to give up if not walk in there and accept the challenge."

Naruto never being one to deny a challenge walked into the forest as the gate opened. "I see then now the test will commence."
