Naruto the Smash Brother.

Chapter 2: Playing Stupid...It's a Legitimate Strategy!

Disclaimer:

I don't own Naruto or Smash Bros…or anything else.

Storyline:

Eight Years, in time for the Genin Exam. If anyone asks about the woman who was in the office, it was Samus.

-----

A young man was walking through the village in an unrecognizable cloak.

'How long has it been since I've been here?' he asked himself.

"EIGHT YEARS, GIVE OR TAKE A FEW DAYS," Kyuubi said. "BY THE WAY, ARE YOU STILL WORKING ON THE CELESTIAL BRUSH TECHNIQUES?"

'Yes, Kyuubi.' Yes, he and Kyuubi have a mutual friendship with each other. Simply put, Kyuubi loves to tease and flirt with him and Naruto puts up with it because they're bonded for eternity. 'Boy is the old man going to flip when he sees me.'

At the Tower…

'Damn paperwork,' Sarutobi thought. 'How did Minato defeat you?' He then noticed the door opening. "Can I help you?" he asked the man.

"It's been a long time, Old Man," the man said. Sarutobi's eyes widened with shock.

"N-Naruto? Is that you?" Naruto then took off his henge.

"In the flesh. How have things been?"

'He looks just like you, Minato.' "Boring, to say the least. Anyways, why are you here?"

"For my enrollment at the Academy, remember?"

"Ah." He then took out a permission slip. "The room number is 105. I'll inform the teacher there of your arrival."

"Got it, Old Man." Before Naruto left, however, he then said, "And have you tried using Shadow Clones for the paperwork?" Then he left via Shunshin leaving the Third gaping at him.

'So that's how you did it. Heh, and they call me the Professor.'

(At the classroom)

Iruka Umino was a bit frustrated with the behavior of the class. Well, most of the female half due to a certain Uchiha bent on revenge. Now, there's a new kid in his class on the day of the final exams.

"PAY ATTENTION CLASS!" he said, using his Big Head Jutsu. Everyone quieted down. "Now, before we begin the Exam, we have an extra student attending."

"But Iruka-sensei," someone asked him, "how come you're letting someone attend on the very last day of the academy?"

"Hokage's orders, Kiba," was all he said. "Said that he had this spot open before he even attended. Now, introduce yourself, Mr…"

"Uzumaki," Naruto said from the door. "Naruto Uzumaki, or Storm Fox if you prefer." Naruto walked in with a black jumpsuit that had a Spiral on the right sleeve, the Namikaze symbol over the Star Fox insignia, and the Smash Bros logo on the back. His gold hair was long and had red tips on it (either from his mother or Kyuubi) and had a watch with an orange strap on it.

'Holy crap,' Iruka thought. 'Naruto has changed.'

'What is the demon brat doing here?' Mizuki (yes, he was there) thought. 'Oh well, I might not have to do anything due to his arrival.'

'He shouldn't act that cool,' a certain pink-haired girl thought. "Only Sasuke can look that cool!" That was her inner persona.

'Oh man,' a certain lazy genius thought. 'Not another pretty boy. Troublesome.'

'Naruto,' a certain Hyuuga thought. 'You're back.'

'Feh, another loser to join the ranks,' the so-called Rookie-of-the-Year thought. 'He does have a certain aura around him, though. I might learn his secrets so I can kill him.'

"Naruto," Iruka said, "take a seat so we can start the exam."

"Sure, Iruka-sensei," Naruto said. He then sat between Shino and Hinata.

"Now that everyone's here, we'll start with the written exam, then the shruiken exam, then the taijutsu exam, and finally a demonstration of the Replacement technique, the Transformation technique, and the Clone Technique."

'This would be bad,' Naruto said, 'if I hadn't known Shadow Clones in the first place.'

"KIT, I'M SENSING SOMETHING FOUL ABOUT THE CHUUNIN WITH THE SILVER HAIR."

'No duh, Kyuubi. He's probably going to rig the exam in his favor.' The adults may have hated Naruto, but Mizuki had a scheming grin on his face.

"PLAY DUMB DURING THE WRITTEN COURSE, THEN EXCEL EVERYWHERE ELSE. THAT'S HOW YOU STUMPED NESS AND LUCAS."

'Of course.'

(Minutes later)

"Time's up," Iruka said. "Pencils down. After turning in your papers, head towards the shruiken practice area for your next exam."

(A/n: I'm just going to skip to the tournament. But Naruto got a perfect 10 out of 10 for studying human anatomy.)

'Good thing the lessons from Dr. Mario paid off,' Naruto thought.

'How the hell did the newbie know where to hit?' Sasuke thought to himself. 'I must know! I'll get an opportunity during the taijutsu tournament to find out.'

'Damn, the brat's onto me,' Mizuki thought. 'I should have known it when he purposely got the exam wrong.'

"Now, it's time for the taijutsu exam," Iruka said. "For the first match…"

"Iruka," Mizuki said, "why don't we have Naruto fight the Rookie of the Year?"

Everyone was gaping at him.

'Now I know he's up to something,' Naruto thought.

'Perfect,' Sasuke thought. 'He just got lucky at shruiken throwing. I will put him in his place.'

"Why?" Iruka asked him.

"More like a demonstration of skill." 'And to see the Uchiha annihilate any chances of the demon brat passing.' "He has been gone a long time."

"Point," Iruka said. "Okay, Naruto Uzumaki vs Sasuke Uchiha. Would both fighters enter the arena?"

Sasuke decided to show off by jumping towards the arena. Naruto just walked up there.

"Ready to taste defeat, dead last?" Sasuke asked him.

Naruto looked impassive. "Depends on who gets the first bite." Sasuke growled at that.

"Fighters ready?" Iruka asked. "BEGIN!"

Sasuke rushed towards Naruto and attempted to punch him, but Naruto dodged and landed a kick to the stomach, making Sasuke stumble backwards. Sasuke then went back towards Naruto, but he just grabbed Sasuke and threw him backwards, nearly taking him out of the ring. Furious, Sasuke then tried to kick Naruto, but he had been expecting that. As a response, Naruto flip-kicked him in the chin and knocked him out of the ring.

'He needs work,' Naruto thought. 'If I had taken my limiters off, he would've been six feet under.'

"By ring out," Iruka said, "I declare the winner of the first match…"

"FIRE STYLE!" they heard. "GRAND FIREBALL JUTSU!" The fireball (which was fired by Sasuke) was heading towards Naruto. Everyone looked worried, but Naruto reached into his belt, unsealed it, activated his reflector, and kicked it, reflecting the fireball back towards Sasuke, burning him.

'Damn it,' Mizuki thought. 'I'll just have to disrupt his chakra flow in order for him not to pass.'

"Naruto," Iruka said, "what did you use?"

"Just something from a friend," Naruto said. "He insisted that I bring it to remember them by."

Iruka was surprised. 'I'm guessing whoever…or whatever taught him how to fight wanted him to grow as much as I do.' "Well, that friend probably had your best interest in mind. I will have a talk with Sasuke about harming his classmates."

As Iruka had left with an unrelenting Sasuke, his fan club had intensely glared at Naruto.

Soon enough, it was time for the Ninjutsu portion of the exam, and Naruto was bored. Ignoring the glares from the Sasuke Fan-Club, he was thinking of how most of the villians he knew and trained with managed to entertain themselves, and that included a certain King of Evil he had tusseled alongside Link-Sensei.

"Naruto Uzumaki?" Iruka asked him.

'About time,' our protagonist thought. 'I thought that I would never hear the end of Haruno-san's yapping.'

When Iruka and Mizuki were watching him, Naruto had used a combination of Transformation and Replacement to make the silver-haired Chuunin fall on his ass, much to the amusement of Iruka and Kyuubi.

"Not bad," Iruka said, "but refrain from using those on a proctor. Now the Clone Technique, please."

Mizuki smirked. 'Now to make sure the demon brat doesn't pass.'

However, to Iruka's surprise and Mizuki's anger, Naruto did a different Clone Jutsu.

"MULTI-SHADOW CLONE JUTSU!" he yelled. With that, the whole room was full of Narutos.

Iruka, shell-shocked at this development, had regained his composure. "You pass, Naruto."

----

That afternoon, Naruto can be seen on top of the Hokage Monument…wandering around like an idiot. The reason is because he was looking for a strong connection to his many different Sensei from another world…good luck with that.

'Maybe I should have gone with Fox-Sensei's idea for a transmission,' he thought.

"WOULDN'T WORK, KIT," Kyuubi said, within his mind. "EVEN WITH THE ADVANCED RANGE, KONOHA'S A DEAD ZONE."

'Good point. If you'll need me, I'm going to take a walk. I'm starting to wonder if the place has changed.'

If there was one thing Konoha was good at, it was remembering what Naruto was. However, his mind was diverted to a small beeping in his ear.

(Codec begin)

Man: Hey, Kiddo. How's it going?

Naruto: Otacon? How did you extend the transmission?

Naruto: Never mind. If anything, I managed to graduate without going with the written exam as a score. Someone would sabotage it, knowing some of the adults I know.

Otacon: Well, they have lost a lot during the attack, but they're still fools into thinking you're…well, you know.

Otacon: But back onto why I called you. Apparently, there's dark deals going on in your area, and I doubt that your village leader knows about it.

Naruto: What kind of dark dealings?

Otacon: You know the ROOT division of ANBU?

Naruto: You mean with the leader dead-set on turning me into a weapon? How can I NOT know?

Otacon: Well, he's been in cahoots with one of the Great Sannin in trying to turn Konoha into a war zone, and it's neither the Pervert nor the Gambler.

Naruto: Orochimaru, then.

However, Naruto noticed something was off. WAY off.

Naruto: I have to go. Tell Meryl-chan, Naomi-san, and Mei-Ling-chan I said 'Hi,' okay?

Otacon: All right.

(End codec transmission)

Following the sound, the young fox vessel had followed the trail of the sound to Mizuki.

'When you're right, you're right, Kyuubi,' Naruto thought. 'Mizuki WAS up to something.'

"THIS MIGHT BE A GOOD TIME TO GET THE JUMP ON THE IDIOT," Kyuubi thought. "JUST REMEMBER TO SAVE YOUR STRENGTH FOR THE BATTLE AHEAD."

Naruto nodded, but Mizuki found him first.

"Look what I found," Mizuki said. "Not only do I get to steal the Forbidden Scroll, I get to kill the Demon Brat, too."

Naruto smirked. "Don't get cocky, bastard. This demon brat has a couple tricks up his sleeve. On top of all that, you're not even worth the trouble of wasting my chakra."

Mizuki frowned. "Do you know why the village hates you?" Naruto could not believe his ears. He knew why the village hated him, but Mizuki didn't know that, so it's basically a way to psyche him out. However, Naruto decided to give him a rude awakening.

"Is it because of the Vixen in my navel?" Mizuki was confused. "Kyuubi, remember? Only there are a few things wrong with what you think you know. One, Kyuubi is female, as I already mentioned; two, she didn't attack it on a berserk rampage, but was looking for a reason why we supposedly attacked; and three, you're probably not listening, anyways, so I'm going to have someone kick your ass for me." With that, he pulled out a capsule. "You see this? It's an Assist Trophy. It's like a summoning contract, only with people instead of special animals. This one happens to be a favorite of mine."

He then raised it up in the air and disappeared, leaving Mizuki shocked. He was then beaten to the ground by an unknown force, and knocked unconscious when Naruto was present. A black hedgehog with red stripes was standing beside him.

"Thanks for the help, Shadow," Naruto said, smirking.

Shadow had frowned, but said, "No thanks are necessary, kid. I just wanted to let him know what happens when one of the more ignorant villagers attack you. Great job on graduating, though. I'll tell Espio that his techniques weren't wasted." Shadow then reverted back into a trophy and into Naruto's hands.

When Iruka saw what happened to Mizuki and Naruto interacting with Shadow, he assumed that whoever trained him had given him a summoning contract. "Looks like Mizuki picked a fight he'll regret," he said, surprising Naruto.

"Iruka-Sensei," Naruto said. "Sorry, he disturbed my walk. If anything, the Forbidden Scroll is secure."

"Good. Now, we'd better talk to the Hokage on who has been training you. I'm pretty sure he'll want the full story."

With that, the Instructor and the Hyperactive Ninja had taken the traitor and the Forbidden Scroll to the Hokage, and to Naruto's surprise, the Hokage DID want the full story.

"Well, Grampa Saru," Naruto said, "it started after you granted me to leave the hospital…"

To be continued…

(A/n: Wow. I cannot BELIEVE that I held off for THIS long. If anything, I thought it was horrible, but I had thought along the concept of Naruto being trained by Nintendo, Konami, and SEGA characters a LONG time ago, and after writing the first three chapters of my Naru-Gi-Oh story and reading a couple Zelda/Naruto crossovers, I got back to this story. Apparently, the reason I stopped writing it was because it was on Word.

I'm thinking of the other characters' reaction to some of the gadgets Naruto was given during his training bout, and Tenten's would be glaringly obvious with the reflector. Oh, and Shadow and Naruto share a kinship with each other being the most hated being in their respective universes, although it's through different reasons.

Next chapter is a prologue/progression in which why the Master Hand took interest in Naruto and who trained him. Snake and Samus would be obvious choices, but I hinted that he was trained by the Star Fox team and Espio the Chameleon as well. And since his dream is to become Hokage, he was taught Manners and Politics in order to become successful, and that is where the paperwork thing came from.)
