Hello everyone. I'm Shadow, Shadow the hedgehog (2nd). I decided to keep some of Naruto's direaha, but not to Magellan's extent. The next chapter is going to be the wave arc. Oh and if you can find someone that can draw(or help me find pics), can help me write fight scenes and/or write decent lemons please pm. The people that help me will know the pairings(or harem) and/or know who future enemies are.
Graduation
Naruto sighed as he tapped his pencil on his desk. Iruka's talking made him want to just go to sleep and wake up eight hours later. He was tempted to use his Kurorobōru (Chloro Ball) to melt the board and end the torture. But he knew that his sensei would track it back to him. Hell, the scarred teacher could track down someone who uses tiny spitballs. That's why Kiba and Naruto got detention from time to time.
Most of Naruto's class is unique to say the least. There was Shikamaru Nara who is very lazy any always sleeping. Choji Akimichi, who is a little large and is always eating chips. Ino Yamanaka was a bit bossy and a Sasuke fan girl. Hinata Hyuuga was shy and seemed to blush and stutter all the time. Kiba Inuzuka was brash and was always with his dog Akamaru. Shino Aburame was always quiet and a bit strange. Sakura Haruno is very smart and her pink her would always stand out; she is a fan girl too. The person Naruto hated the most was Sasuke Uchiha. He would always brood in the corner of the room and would always say 'Hn'. The rest of the class was no one important at the moment.
"Alright, class. This is the last day of the academy this year. We will have test to see if you guys and girls are qualified to be genin of Konoha. You will have to pass getting good scores in Taijutsu, Ninjutsu and Academics. So, now I am going to hand out test papers. Cheating will result in an automatic 0 and you have to retry next year." Iruka and Mizuki started passing around the test to Naruto's ire.
"You don't need to worry, Naruto. All you need is a 60 to pass this part. Do that, and the other parts will be easy." Magellan said. Ever since Naruto ate the Doku Doku no Mi, the man has been teaching him all about poisons and how to use his old moves. Naruto was able to use all of them, but not to Magellan's extent. He also made some moves of his own. One thing that bugged him though is he never found out what was in that cage.
"I know Magellan. I just hate test period. I don't see the point of this. Why would I ever need to know the Nidaime's birthday?"
"That may be so, but you need to know it if you want to pass." Naruto grumbled but started answering the questions. Of course, with Magellan's help.
"Okay, that's it! Time's up!" Mizuki said aloud before gathering the test. He made sure he got Naruto's test last and went to grade them somewhere secret.
Iruka made sure the students were following him and took them to a training field. It was really simple. All there was is a large open space and a few trees. It was big enough to hold a spar.
"Alright class. The next part of the exams is Taijutsu. No Genjutsu and Ninjutsu. You guys will have to fight me and last for about three minutes. You will gain extra points if you can defeat me. Bloodlines can be allowed if it goes with your fighting style. Now I will start from the top of the class roster. First up is Shino Aburame."
Naruto decided to stay awake during the fights. He'll never know if any of these people could be future opponents. The top three in the class so far was Sasuke, Shino, and Kiba fighting Iruka for about four minutes. Although, none of them won against the chunin.
"Naruto Uzumaki." Iruka called. Naruto was jumping up and down at the prospect of fighting someone that has a higher rank than him.
"Alright, Iruka-sensei! Here I come!' he yelled.
Naruto got in front of Iruka to throw a punch at his head. Iruka moved his head to the left. Somehow Naruto got behind him. Iruka dropped low and did a sweeping kick to take out the ankles of the boy behind him, but connected with nothing. Iruka's eyes widened slightly and looked around him.
He heard the wind shift above him and jumped back. Naruto had almost hit him with an axe kick. The boy chuckled before looking at his teacher and pulled out a kunai.
Both fighters disappear from the eyes of those who were watching the fight, except from the stronger students. Here and there you could hear a clash of metal and Iruka and Naruto appearing in one spot and sparks flying off their kunai.
Naruto began attack more fiercely, making Iruka switch from offensive to defensive in a second while Naruto was looking for an opening. Naruto threw his kunai in the sky and used side kick that sent Iruka skidding back. Naruto grabbed the kunai as it fell and put it against Iruka's throat. The match had lasted for about five minutes.
"Congratulations Naruto. You pass the Taijutsu part." he said with a smile on his face. Naruto nodded and put the Kunai back in his pouch and went towards the students and saw their reactions. Most of them were shock and a few were angry. It was mostly the Sasuke fan girls and the boy himself.
"One more section left. To pass this portion, you'll need to be able to do the following: Henge no Jutsu(Transformation technique), Kawarimi no Jutsu(Body replacement technique), and Bushin no Jutsu(Clone technique)." Naruto right eye gained a twitch. He couldn't do a regular clone, even if his life depended on it. He hoped they would take any clone. The only one he had was a Doku Bushin(Poison Clone).
"Sasuke Uchiha." Sasuke walked to the front of the class. He transformed into the Hokage and substituted with a chair in the corner. And instead of creating the stard three clones, he created six making the girls scream. Mizuki marked it as extra points for the chakra control.
"Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto stepped in front of the two academy instructors and did the Henge and Kawarimi. He had paused when he got to the Bushin.
"Is there a problem, Naruto?" Iruka asked nervously. He didn't want the blond to fail again. He knew that the Jinchuriki had too much chakra to make it easily.
"Um, can we a different kind of clone?" Everyone looked at him shocked. They didn't know he could use different clones. They didn't even know there were more types of them.
"Why, yes Naruto. As long as it isn't a Mizu Bushin(Water Clone) you can pass with extra points."
Naruto grinned and started doing fake hand seals. When he was down he opened his hands and three purple balls fell to the ground. They started to shake and grew larger and larger until they took the shape of the blond.
"What kind of Bushin is that!" Mizuki yelled at him. Never before as he ever heard of a clone that appeared like that.
"It's one of my own creations, Doku Bushin." Despite the situation Iruka stilled smiled. He reached from the bag and handed him a black head band.
"Well, you graduate Naruto. You are no a genin of the Village Hidden in the Leaves."
Naruto was sitting on a swing admiring his headband. He had always dread that he would become a shinobi and take the title Hokage. Now that he's a genin, he is one step closer. He was so happy he ignored the villagers for once.
"Hey, Naruto." When he looked up he saw Mizuki leaning on the tree right next to him.
"Yes, sensei?" Naruto was a bit suspicious. He never did trust Mizuki as much as Iruka.
"I was impressed by those clones you made today. I would have to say, you could be a chunin in no time. I could give you a test for you." Naruto head snapped towards him. Becoming a chunin on the same day as genin was unheard of! "All you have to do is follow my instructions.''
The blonde huffed as he finally reached the destination that Mizuki had told him to go. The test was simple actually. All he had to do was slip into the Hokage's tower and steal a scroll from the vault in the basement. The only trouble he ran into was the Sandaime, but that was easily dealt with. The old man was a closet pervert.
Right now Naruto was looking through the scroll since he still had some minutes left before Mizuki showed up.
"Huh? Orochimaru and Jiraya's secret poisons? I wonder if they are useful."
"Naruto, this might be a rare chance. Read the description and see how deadly it is?" Naruto shrugged. Any poison would be good for his arsenal.
"Jiraya's Poison Dart frog Poison. Just a single touch of the frog will put a person in danger. This poison has been banned from the village for its high toxicity. Orochimaru's Belcher Sea-Snake Poison. The toxicity of this snake's poison is so potent that it can kill a person in less than 30 minutes. This snake is highly feared in Kiri." Naruto saw two vials of poison, one blue and one green.
"These poisons is very potent, Naruto. Able to kill animals and humans in under a hour. What's better is that if they live it will cause desired effects." Magellan said impressed. He never seen such poisons before. It was a rare find.
"I guess I can eat it. It scares me a bit though." Naruto grumbled and took Jiraya's viles first and let it go down his throat. For some reason, it was oddly chunky. After drinking it he took Orochimaru's and gulped it down in one go. That one was liquid like regular venom. Just as Naruto was about to comment on the Dart Frog's chunkiness, Iruka came in the clearing.
"You!" said he said in an angry voice.
"Heh, hey Iruka-Sensei, I only managed to learn one of the techniques on the scroll. It's enough to pass right?" Said Naruto sheepishly even though he was lying. For some reason, his stomach was staring to act up.
"What are talking about?" Iruka asked in a confused matter
"Mizuki sensei told me about to become chunin," continued Naruto eagerly, "he said if I could get a scroll from the Hokage Tower's basement, then I pass."
"Huh..." said Iruka, but he was quickly cut off by the sound of something heading towards them. He quickly pushed Naruto out of the way but a kunai was in his leg. He turned around to see who the attacker was.
"Mizuki" he said venomously, "Why'd do it?"
Mizuki laughed and said, "I see you found the brat before. You were always good a finding him. Now, you signed your death warrant for coming. I will leave not witnesses!"
Naruto was in shock. The teacher who was being nice to him is going to kill him! He was about to stand up and fight but Iruka called out to him.
"Run away, Naruto, just don't let Mizuki get his hands on the scroll, he's using you to get it for himself. Go get the Hokage!"
Naruto was in an inner turmoil. He could stay here and fight Mizuki and protect Iruka, but he couldn't refuse orders from a superior. So he decided to get up and run, but before he could make it back into the forest, Mizuki grabbed some shuriken and kunai out of his pouch and flung it at Naruto's back with incredible speed.
Iruka saw the attack and ran towards Naruto, pushing him out the way. By doing so, ended up with a few hitting him making wounds and others pinning him in to the wall of the hut.
"Why are you protecting him, Iruka." sneered an angry Mizuki, "after all the things that this monster has done to you. Why do you protect a demon that killed hundreds of innocent people?"
"Stop it Mizuki!" exclaimed Iruka, "You know we're not supposed to talk about this. It forbidden for a reason!" stated Iruka. He started to struggle from his binds and shut the traitor up.
Mizuki however had no intention of stopping. He waited for a long time to crush the boy's spirit. He wanted him to break.
"Naruto, do you know why everybody hates your guts? Why everybody treats you so bad like you did something horrible? Why nobody wants to be your friend and avoid you like a plague? Off course you don't know it's an S class secret after all created by the Sandaime Hokage. Twelve years ago the Yondaime didn't kill the Kyuubi. Instead he sealed it into a baby since it couldn't die."
Naruto stood shell-shocked. It all started to make sense. The beast in the cage with the giant killer intent. People glaring at him and calling him a monster and a demon. He was broken out of his thoughts when he heard his other teacher yell.
"You were the one chosen to contain the Kyuubi! YOU ARE THE KYUUBI NO KITSUNE!" However, Naruto didn't hear it. He was frozen in shock and talking to Magellan about the beast.
Mizuki, seeing the blond frozen, took a Fūma shuriken from his back and flung it full force towards the paralyzed Naruto
"Naruto!" Iruka shouted. He quickly pulled the weapons out of his person and ran towards Naruto with chakra in his legs.
Naruto eyes opened after feeling a warm liquid fall on his face. "W-why-y?" he said, tears threatening to fall out. "Why did you save me?" Naruto was at a loss for words. He had the ability to protect himself, but why would go to such lengths.
"I protected you because you're precious to me." He said tearfully. "You and I are a lot alike Naruto. We're both orphans, and pranksters at heart. We both grew up alone and ended up seeking attention. Growing up alone, I could've helped you more because I've been in your situation. But I didn't and I'm sorry Naruto."
Naruto was openly crying now. He suddenly started running towards the village.
"Now look what you've done." Said Mizuki with a sneer. "Now I have to go on a fox hunt. Stay here and I'll come back and kill you." Mizuki started jumping from tree to tree.
Naruto was running through the trees breathing heavily, when suddenly Iruka appeared behind him. "Naruto, hand me the scroll before Mizuki catches up to us." The blond turned around kicked Iruka towards the ground, but in the process falling himself.
"How'd you know. How did you know that I'm not Iruka?" asked Mizuki as the concentration for the Henge slipped.
"Because. I'm Iruka" he replied as the fake Naruto turned in to Iruka.
"Heh, why are trying so hard to protect that monster Iruka?" Mizuki asked . "You know that it killed hundreds of people 12 years ago. It even killed your parents and made you and orphan Iruka! Don't you despise that stupid fox for killing them and leaving you homeless?"
"You're right." replied Iruka, "I despise the fox for doing that"
A small ways away behind a tree, Naruto immediately broke down with his shoulders slumped. 'Maybe's he's right. Maybe I am the Kyuubi.' Naruto thought sadly. Hearing what Iruka said next made him cry tears of joy.
"I hate the fox sealed inside of Naruto, but I can never hate him! He does not go around and create destruction to whatever he sees! He's one of my precious people and is a genin of Konoha!. He's Naruto Uzumaki and nothing will change that!"
"Whatever Iruka," said Mizuki. "I was going to finish you off, after I got the monster, but you have made me angry!" With that, he removed the giant shuriken from his backpack and flung it full speed towards Iruka. Naruto flew through the air and kicked the shuriken out of the way. When he landed, he got up and looked down with his blonde hair overshadowing his face.
"If you lay one finger on my sensei, I'll kill you." Naruto said calmly with determination in his eyes
Mizuki simply laughed out loud. "And what are you going to do, Kyuubi no Kitsune?" Naruto body started to turn purple in color and it seemed to coat him in some type of thick layer liquid. On different spots of his body, the purple stuff would drip to the ground making it sizzle. A pillar of the purple liquid came from his head and formed some type of dragon. Naruto said a word that will put fear into enemies' hearts.
"Hydra."(Poison Dragon) This made Iruka pale and Mizuki shiver and pale. If all of that was poison, then it would definitely kill anything, animal or human, it hits. Because of that, Mizuki ran as fast as he could, away from the dragon in hopes of getting out of range. But before he could take a step, his vision turned black.
Iruka looked at the pile of purple poison on the ground. He couldn't believe that Mizuki had been melted down to the bone. That was something that Kanton(Fire Release) users could ever dream for. The brown haired man turned towards the genin.
"Naruto how did do-" Iruka was surprised to see his old student on the ground the holding his stomach saying 'shit and crap' repeatily. He ran over to the genin." Naruto what's wrong?" The blonde whimpered.
"I-I-I GOT TO GO TO THE BATHROOM!" Was heard all over the forst.
Well there it goes! Naruto will display more moves later on, that are differnt from Magellan's. I also want you to know, that the person with the Zoan fruit will get the Rokushiki. Although I'm considering Rob Luuci's but I want more options. I also plan to give Naruto haki. And the logia user might get superhuman strength. Naruto may learn Kage Bushin later on, but not yet. See ya!
