(Village of Konoha, Ninja Academy)

It had been ten years since the day he had unlocked his birthright. Naruto had trained with his new powers everyday since. Never stopping until he passed out from exhaustion. As a result he had grown powerful. His muscles where sculpted like those of a greek god, each feeling more like steel wire then actual muscle. His hair now grew down to his mid back and he had tied it up in a pony tail, all of it still seeming to defy the laws of gravity. (Think Minato's hair style with a pony tail added to it.) His clothes had also changed. He wore steel toed black boots and baggy black cargo pants. For a shirt he wore a sleeveless blood red shirt that had a high coller that prevented his mouth from being seen. His star tattoo was shown proudly. Under the coller he wore a black facemask that came up over his nose and stopped under his eyes. A pair of bulky black fingerless gloves adorned his hands, steel woven into the fabric to give it extra defence. The tanto that he had taken all those years ago was worn in a sheeth around the back of his waist. A pair of connected kusari-gama hung at his right hip while a large fuma shurikin was strapped to his back. A massive black scythe lay on the desk beside him (see profile for pic). Currently he was sitting in the back row of the classroom, his feet up on the desk with his arms crossed over his chest. During his years at the academy he had refused to show his true skills doing only the minimum to pass. When asked as to why he did this he asked them "how much will you pay me?". When no one offered up any money he would simply walk away. Today was the day of their finals. The day that would decide if they would go home as ninja or civilians. At that moment the teacher Iruka walked in the door.

"Alright everyone. As you know today is your finals. Lets start with the taijutsu test. Everyone to the field." After everyone had arrived, Iruka begane calling out who would go into the fighting ring to be tested by his assistant Mizuki. One by one names where called out until finally it was Naruto's turn. Dropping the majority of his weapons to the ground, aside from his tanto, the boy made his way to the ring. As the young Star Clan member walked onto the field the test began. Mizuki lunged forward with a punch. The blonde simply ducked under it, hands in pockets, and jumped away. Noticing his nochilance Iruka called out to the boy.

"Naruto this is your passing grade. I suggest you take this seriously." The blonde glanced at his teacher and held out a hand.

"How much will you pay me?" Iruka sighed before he decided to humor the kid. Digging through his pockets he pulled out a single coin and tossed it into Naruto's open hand. Catching the coin Naruto gazed at it for a moment before putting it in his pocket. Due to his mask no one noticed the feral grin stretch across his face. Without so much as a single word the blonde vanished only to reapear right behind Mizuki. Pulling a hand out of his pocket the boy backhanded his teacher, sending him rocketing across the ring to slide to a stop fourteen yards away. Slowly getting up he didn't notice the blonde appear before him until a fist planted itself in his chin sending his entire body off the ground again. Before Mizuki could get to high Naruto punched forward with his free left hand and planted it firmly in Mizuki's gut causing the man to spit out blood. Quickly spinning to the left of Mizuki Naruto brought up his leg in an axe kick before sending it down onto the chunnin's head causing it to slam against the ground and forming a large crater from the sheer force behind the attack. Checking his pulse Naruto found that the man was alive but unconsious. Before anyone could say anything the blonde had unsheethed his tanto and placed it on the man's neck. He turned to his teacher.

"Would you like him alive or dead sensei?" Iruka could hardly respond due to his shock at just how much the boy was holding back before as he shakily responded that he wanted him alive. Naruto simply shruged before sheething his tanto and leaving the field. Pausing only to retrieve his weapons and replace them in their former places. Iruka nervously told the students to go to their weapons test before calling an ANBU to take Mizuki to the hospital. Arriving at their next test the students found Naruto lounging against a tree waiting for them. Iruka took his place and began calling the ninja too be to take their tests. Naruto again went last. Walking up to the starting line the blonde servayed his targets. Three human shaped wooden cut outs with various points on them showing their vital regions. before Iruka could say begin Naruto quickly pulled out twenty one shurikin and kunai before throwing them expertly at his targets. Everyone of them hit dead center of every target. Before Iruka could congratulate him however, the blonde grabbed the fuma shurikin off of his back and with one toss sent it flying across the obstical course where it cut cleanly through a tree and the forth hidden target behind it. Iruka was stunned. No one had ever gotten that one. Hell he had forgotten it was even there. Naruto, with a flick of his wrist brought the large ninja tool spinning back to him before catching it and returning it to his back all in one expert move.

Next was the ninjutsu test. The students where instructed to use the transformation, clone, and substitution jutsu to pass. They were also allowed to show one other jutsu of their choosing for extra credit. Naruto scoffed. This final exam was a joke. He found himself almost seething in fury when he saw some of the extra credit jutsu performed. Especially the Inuzuka's Fang over Fang Jutsu and Sasuke's Fireball Jutsu. They were supposed to be Ninja! Yet the supposedly best techniques, the very greatest 'ninja' techniques where the most flashy and explosive ones! Grumbling as his name was called, the boy rose and walked to the testing area. Easily performing the first three jutsu the boy smirked.

'I'll show them a damn ninja technique.' Quickly backflipping the boy landed in the shadow of a nearby tree. Without even a sound the blonde melted into the shadow. The entire classed looked around for him but he was no where to be found. Iruka found him first. Though not in the way he expected. Noticing a gleam of metal under his chin he looked down to find the blonde's tanto at his throat. He heard Naruto whisper the technique's name behind him.

"Shadow Star: Shadow walk." The short sword disappeared from under his neck as it was resheethed. Iruka shakily muttered out that the blonde passed.
