Okay class today we will have the following match ups match one -Midori vs Ino, match two-Sakura vs Hinata , match 3- Sasuke vs Shikamaru , match 4-Arikuta vs Rei , match 5-Choji vs Shino, match 6-Ranmaru vs riamu , match 7-Takatsu vs Karashi, match 8-Taru vs Tenma and match 9- Naruto vs Kiba."
"Okay so lets begin with match one Ino and Midori lets begin."Iruka instructed.
Ino walked into the sparring square followed by a girl around about the same age, she had long light brown hair and chocolate brown eyes. The girl wore a black mid thigh length kimono with a yellow sun insignia on her back, the kimono's right arm was sleeveless which revealed a yellow sun tattoo not unlike the emblem on the back of her kimono, on the same arm she had a black elbow length fingerless glove. She had a yellow sash wrapped around her waist holding her kimono together, she also wore short black tights until just above her knee with bandage wrappings running down her calves until her ankle which led to her dark blue shinobi sandals.
The two kunoichi fell back into their own taijutsu stances, with Midori taking the more organised of the two and Ino on the other hand was rather sluggish as if she wasn't interested in the battle at hand. "Midori , I don't want hurt you, you should just concede."Ino stated plainly.
"Iruka sensei, may we begin?" Midori questioned completely ignoring Ino.
"Yes, very well begin." Iruka exclaimed as he jumped to the side, far enough that he wouldn't get in the way but close enough to interrupt in the case of cheating.
Ino ran towards Midori with fire in her eyes as she drew her fist back, when she reached Midori she swung with all the strength she could muster but alas she merely hit air as Midori had dodged the punch and was now behind Ino.
"She's fast."Naruto blurted out. Before anyone could make make any other comments on the subject Midori proceeded to kick Ino in the back of her right leg bringing her down to one leg. "Its because you are a fan-girl , that is why you loose."Midori whispered before giving Ino a powerful roundhouse kick to the back of her head which sent Ino's face straight towards the ground and knocked her out.
"Winner Midori sora!"Iruka exclaimed, as he went over to Ino and helped her up.
"Ino, go take a seat and here," he said as he bit his finger and opened up a scroll that he pulled out of his chunin flak jacket, he wiped he thumb across it and and suddenly there was a puff of smoke and a ice pack appeared and he gave it to Ino.
"My, my I think her ego is damaged worse than her injuries."Iruka whispered to himself, "okay well the next two challengers please step up, Sakura and Hinata!"Iruka exclaimed
A girl with long pink hair tied by a ribbon allowing a few bangs of hair to cover her face just above her sea green eyes, she wore a pink qipao dress with white circular patterns, and a zipper running down the middle, followed by short green tights and shinobi sandals, walked towards the sparing zone.
The girl behind her had ink blue princess cut hair, with a few bangs stopping just before her eyes and the rest framing her face, her eyes were white if almost transparent. Hinata wore a hooded jacket with fur at the cuffs and a yellow circle with a flame within on her left arm, Hinata had navy blue pants on followed by blue shinobi sandals.
"Ino, are you okay?"Naruto asked in a caring tone, Ino was shocked , she wasn't used to anyone besides her parents and maybe Sakura on occasions showing concern. "Ah, yeah I'll be okay." Ino said unconvincingly.
"Well I'm going to go and watch the rest of the fights, but don't worry Ino you'll come back even stronger, believe it!"Naruto said with a wide grin as he walked off.
"Sakura vs Hinata, begin!" Iruka said as he jumped away from the two.
Sakura looked very uncomfortable, she had her right leg drawn back and her hands were in front of her clenched in a fist, while her face looked somewhat constipated.
Hinata had her right hand opened and drawn into the air and her left was in front of her and pointed towards Sakura, but her whole body was shaking in fear and Sakura took advantage of this and advanced on Hinata and swung wildly at her, Hinata just managed to dodge, when Sakura kicked her weakly in the side of her ribs. Hinata gasped in pain as the pain shot through her body.
Sakura, looked down on Hinata. "Hinata , you are weak , how do you want to become a kunoichi while being so weak?"Sakura exclaimed with a smug smirk.
Naruto was getting annoyed by the trash talk showed during this fight, and the previous one and he decided to interject. "Sakura!," Naruto shouted trying to get her attention.
She had turned her head in his direction. "Stop the damn trash-talk, and get on with the fight and why don't you shut up about Hinata being weak because you are a disrespectful sparing partner with no honour."Naruto said venomously.
"And what kind of kunoichi is a fan-girl? You are way to obsessed with Sasuke over here, so just shut up!"
"Shut up dem. . ."Sakura wasn't able to finish her retort, as Hinata interjected with a shout of "byakugan!"her facial features began to change as bulging veins began to surround her eyes, she rushed towards Sakura and shouted "eight trigrams thirty two palms" and at a speed that only the high genin level shinobi could hope to achieve she thrust her palms into Sakura's tentetsu points, which ended the battle with Sakura falling to her knees.
Iruka called the fight "Hinata hyuga is the winner.".
Hinata walked towards Sakura and began thrusting her hands into Sakura's body, Iruka was about to interrupt but then he realised what she was doing.
"I've unlocked all of your tentetsu point once more." Hinata said as she deactivated her byakugan.
Sakura was shocked, she was at a loss for words, she went to go sit down next to Ino, but then she saw Naruto and started glaring daggers at him. "Naruto , its all your fault , I lost because of you."
"No, you lost because Hinata was better."Sasuke interjected
"No, Sasuke he distracted me." Sakura pleaded, as she didn't want to disappoint her crush further.
Sasuke simply said , "Shinobi rule number two."
Sakura gasped and recited,"A shinobi must never let oneself get distracted, for it can cause ones death." Sakura walked away with her head down in shame.
"Good luck Sasuke."Naruto said to Sasuke
"Hmm"Sasuke replied
Iruka once again stood in the middle of the sparring square and called out the next match. "Match 3, Sasuke vs shikamaru."
Sasuke walked towards the square, confidence emitting off of him that could make the strongest of opponents doubt themselves.
Sasuke stood in the square awaiting battle, shikamaru arrived in the square with a look of complete laziness evident. "Oh and shikamaru, you cant concede this fight, unless you are about to die."Iruka said with an evil smile
"Troublesome teacher's."shikamaru groaned as he decided it was time to at least attempt to fight Sasuke even though he knew Sasuke's taijutsu was the best the class had to offer.
Sasuke stood in a neutral stances with is right hand facing shikamaru. Shikamaru however had taken a stance with his legs slightly bent and arms crossed in front of him like an x
"shikamaru vs Sasuke, begin!"Iruka exclaimed as he jumped away.
Suddenly Sasuke sprinted forward and surprisingly shikamaru did the same, and used his arms to block the followed with a side kick, shikamaru once again blocked this, but almost lost his balance. Sasuke swept Shikamaru's legs taking advantage of his imbalance, but as he hit the ground he did a back roll and quickly advanced on Sasuke.
Shikamaru jumped into the air and came down with a fist aimed at Sasuke's face, however he blocked it, but it wasn't a fist it was Shikamaru's "x" shape defence stance but because of all the strength shikamaru had behind him it pushed Sasuke back from the strain of holding all of Shikamaru's weight, as this happened shikamaru swept Sasuke off his legs and while he was falling he quickly kicked Sasuke in the abdomen which sent Sasuke violently towards the ground.
Sasuke rose from the ground while clutching his side from the combined impact of Shikamaru's kick and the ground.
Shikamaru sped towards Sasuke, with intentions of taking advantage of the situation, he threw a punch with Sasuke just avoiding it , then shikamaru aimed a kick at Sasuke's abdomen once again, however Sasuke caught his foot and swept his other foot but at the last moment shikamaru jumped over it and aimed a kick at Sasuke's head, Sasuke ducked which left shikamaru with his back to Sasuke, Sasuke still with Shikamaru's foot in hand pushed Shikamaru forward , then pulled him back and elbowed him hard into the back of his head with his free-hand, this dazed shikamaru, until Sasuke gave him a second one that sent shikamaru to the floor, which nearly ended up with shikamaru being knocked out.
Shikamaru just laid there too sore and to lazy to move. "winner Sasuke uchiha!" Iruka exclaimed loudly.
"Yay Sasuke I knew you could do it!"came the combined voices of Ino and Sakura, which resulted in everyone else groaning.
Shikamaru was still laying there face full of dirt by the time Sasuke came back to his position next to Naruto. "Good fight Sasuke , shikamaru gave you a real hard time didn't he, anyway I'm going to go and help shikamaru up, those dead beat friends of his are lazier than he is." Naruto said as he walked away.
Naruto reached shikamaru and pulled his right arm up, and placed it around his neck while he used his other arm to lift shikamaru up. "Thanks Naruto."shikamaru said as he gave him a small smirk.
While they were walking back to the waiting area, well Naruto walked and shikamaru got dragged. "Great fight Shikamaru."Naruto exclaimed brightly.
"Yeah, in every plan I made all of them ended up with my defeat."shikamaru replied, but then he noticed that Naruto had stopped moving and was looking towards the sky as if he was searching for something. "Eh, Naruto what you looking for?"shikamaru asked tiredly
"I'm looking for a spot around here with lots of clouds."Naruto replied
"Heh, troublesome blondes."shikamaru said with a small smirk.
Then Naruto started walking towards the area beside him and Sasuke and placed Shikamaru on the ground allowing him to watch the clouds.
Iruka once again appeared in the sparring square, and called out the next match. "Match number 4- Arikuta vs Rei."
Arikuta walked from the bench she was sitting on she had long black hair with purple tips, she also had bangs that framed her face and stopped just above pale blue eyes that had purple markings under them. She wore a long sleeve under shirt and a red sleeveless thigh length kimono with three black circles on her back along with a black sash tied around her waist, followed by black ankle length pants and dark blue shinobi sandals.
The second girl came from the opposite side she had mid-back length blonde hair tied in a loose pony tail , bangs from her hair framed her face and stopped just before her eyes, which were quite peculiar, even by the hidden leaf village standards. They were black with a almost transparent pupil. She wore a sleeveless grey kimono style blouse with a two tone fan, the lower part being white and the upper part was yellow with a red flame inside just like Hinata's clan emblem. She wore a yellow sash around her waist with black tomoe running across it, under that she had navy blue pants that reached just above her knee followed by her dark blue shinobi sandals.
"Okay, I'm just going to reassure those academy students who use any form of taijutsu that uses chakra or needs the aid of your clan eye powers, you are allowed to activate it, even if you don't have the byakugan or the powers of the akimichi, it just must not be a form of ninjutsu or taijutsu."Iruka informed
"Oh now he tells us."Midori said in frustration.
"Eh, Midori why would you need the help of a taijutsu assist if you completely over shadow Ino in taijutsu, I mean you may need it if it was ninjutsu included, with the mind thing."Naruto shouted across the training yard.
"Troublesome blondes."shikamaru sighed.
"Thanks Naruto, I'm better now." she said cheerfully.
Back on the sparing square Arikuta, was in a stance similar to Hinata but her hands where in a semi fist with her fingers tips reaching till the top of her palm. But then suddenly the markings under her eye began to glow, then her eyes began to glow along with the markings and the markings began moving from under her eyes the centre of her forehead just above her eyes ,them they suddenly disappeared to be replaced by a slit in the middle of her forehead which opened up to reveal a third eye was a bright gold.
"Um, Sasuke what's that I've never heard of anyone with three eyes!"Naruto half shouted.
"That's the sanshigan or the third spirit eye." Sasuke replied with venom evident in his voice.
"And what does it do exactly?"Naruto asked.
This time another voice gave the answer, it was a boy Narutos and Sasuke's age he had long blue hair, with a white cloth tied around his forehead which was the hagoromo clan emblem and this was a black circle surrounded by a "u" like shape with a short curved horizontal line underneath the "u" shape and a longer curved lone under the previous one, just under the cloth was dark black eyes with bright blue rings around the circumference of the eye, as for the rest of his face, it couldn't be seen because it was covered by a white face mask. The boy wore armour similar to Hashirama senju except his was grey with the hagoromo clan insignia on the collar plates, under the armour he wore a white long sleeve under shirt, followed by long black pants with a flame pattern running up his right leg and on his left leg he had a swarm of white hagoromo clan emblems on it , this was finished off by dark blue shinobi sandals.
"The sanshigan gives the user immense power as it can see chakra in the body , not as good as the byakugan , but they can still see."the boy informed.
"And you are?" Naruto asked with a wide grin.
"I am Takatsu dry, descendant of the hagoromo clan."Takatsu replied
"Get lost Takatsu."Sasuke retorted.
"Sasuke, you know this guy?"Naruto asked somewhat confused.
"Yeah his clan, and my clan. . .what's left of it are eternal allies or whatever from the time of Madara uchiha." Sasuke said as if he thought it was an insult.
Takatsu walked away , but not before leaving a remark that cut deep, "Sasuke, don't get whinny because all of these clans here were able to activate their eye techniques before you." Sasuke merely growled back and closed his eyes.
In the sparing zone, Rei was also in a taijutsu stance similar to Hinata but her right hand was covering her collar bone and left hand was pointed towards her opponent, but then suddenly she brought her hands together in the tiger hand-seal and veins began to bulge around the area near her eyes similar to Hinata and like Hinata her eyes began to change, they now had a black tomoe in the centre acting like a pupil and the rest of the eye was transparent in colour.
"Uh, Sasuke that girl her eyes changed can you take a look and tell me what's going on."Naruto asked.
That's Rei, her clan can harness the power of the byakugan and the sharingan, they can see chakra in the body as good as a hyuga and are very skilled in genjutsu, plus they can anticipate attack patterns, but what they cant do is copy jutsu, like a pure uchiha, because you see they're half uchiha and half hyuga, the eye technique is called the bijuarushirogan."Sasuke finished
"That's great Sasuke, why don't you invite them to come and stay in your clan compound? then it wont be that empty."Naruto said with a wide grin.
"I did, they declined my offer, something about me being clan head rubbed them the wrong way."
"But its not like it your fault, I mean you never asked to be left alone with no family and then having to be clan head on top of that."Naruto said beginning to get angry.
"Yeah, uncle Teuchi agreed to taking clan responsibilities he also said if the village decides to enforce the clan restoration act unto me, that his going to relinquish the title , something about it being to much paperwork."
The fight between the two technique welders had began with Rei going on the defensive just managing to avoid the palm attacks that Arikuta had thrown, which left Arikuta pretty tired out from the continuous palm attacks, so she had to take a breather. Taking advantage of this Rei began a gentle fist attack on Arikuta, she first thrust her index and middle finger into her shoulder then abdomen , on numerous places on her arms which left them limp, and finished the attack with her hands in a tiger hand seal and thrust it into her chest which sent Arikuta staggering backwards and causing her to have laboured breathing.
"Oh you got me good, using the. . .byakug. . .an and sha..ringan in-sync."Arikuta chocked out. Rei simply remained quiet while analysing her opponent, but suddenly her eyes widened in shock, as she saw Arikuta's third-eye glow brightly then faded a little lighter than it originally was and miraculously all of Arikuta's injuries were healed , and her breathing was no longer laboured.
"You got me good but not good enough, ' mystical third-eye chakra cloak!"she shouted as she slammed her palms together which caused blue chakra to erupt around her before becoming a light purple.
"My strength and speed multiplies by five when I use this technique, get ready to lose!" she simply said as she dashed towards Rei.
"She says that and it is true, but its limited because her third eye needs seventy percent of her chakra to stay active and when using the healing ability and the chakra cloak ability right after one another , and considering her chakra reserves, I would say , that I need to last for another three minutes and that will be enough."Rei said quietly before dodging a palm attack from Arikuta.
"What her speed has increased this much, I mean I knew this would happen but i just don't believe it."Rei said flabbergastingly.
"Sasuke did you see how fast she was, believe it."Naruto cried in shock and amazement at the same time.
"Yes I did Naruto,but I didn't know that she could do that, neither did I know about the self healing ability. Dammit if I cant match her speed ill never beat Itachi."Sasuke said angrily
"Troublesome eyes."shikamaru sighed exhaustingly
Arikuta again began attacking Rei with her chakra palm style and this time her palms were surrounded in chakra, and unfortunately for Rei one of them hit her shoulders as she tried to evade it, and it sent her staggering back, but Arikuta didn't let up she slammed another chakra coated palm into her chest, then another into her abdomen which caused Rei to bend over and clutch her stomach in pain, however as she bent over Arikuta slammed a twin palm attack into Rei's face , which sent her into the air and hurtling back, but it didn't stop there she jumped in the air and slammed her right palm into her chest sending her hurtling towards the ground and into unconscious at the very same time.
"Sheesh remind me to never get on her bad side."Naruto remarked.
"Troublesome girls."shikamaru exclaimed.
"What was that?" almost every girl questioned as they stormed towards shikamaru and his eyes widened , Naruto stood in-front of shikamaru while waving his hands in a we-mean-no-harm kind of way, "shikamaru said that those two were grizzlies, because they're so strong."Naruto exclaimed.
"Okay then , as you were."they all said as they walked away.
"Few, nice save Naruto."shikamaru said in relief, but then Ino appeared behind Naruto. "What was a nice save Naruto?"Ino asked evilly, at this shikamaru began to sweat, for his mind was completely blank.
"Um, it. . . Was. . .the other day, when me and. . .shikamaru and Choji were playing soccer and I was goal keeper. . .yeah that's it, but shikamaru was only watching, he said that running was troublesome."Naruto added the last part to make it more believable, at first Ino was sceptical which was evident with a raised brow, but when she heard the last part she began to believe the story.
"Okay, you must call me when you guys play soccer I would really like to watch."Ino said with a wink and walked away.
"Naruto, I really need to keep you around, like my mind was a complete blank, I was about to be in big trouble."shikamaru once again said in relief as he wiped the beads of sweat off his forehead.
Iruka, had just finished healing Rei back to consciousness, so that she could go back to the spectators zone.
"Winner Arikuta!"Iruka shouted as he sent the two back to the spectator zone with a hand gesture and they complied, Arikuta walked there with her third eye now closed and she had sluggish breathing from the chakra usage and Rei was clutching her ribs as she headed towards the spectators zone.
"Now match five Choji vs Shino!"Iruka exclaimed.
Choji headed towards the sparing zone, and surprisingly he wasn't eating chips, behind Choji was was a boy the same age as him, he had wild brown hair, his eyes couldn't be seen as they were covered by circular shades, Shino wore a high collared grey jacket with two pockets at the lower part of the jacket and a zip down the middle, followed by ankle length brown pants and dark blue shinobi sandals.
Shino stood in a stance with his right leg partially stretched out behind him and his hands were raised just above elbow-height in a fist.
While Choji stood up straight with his right fist pointed menacingly at Shino.
"Choji vs Shino , begin!."Iruka exclaimed as he jumped away.
Shino immediately sprinted towards Choji and aimed a punch at Choji's face, but Choji dive-rolled out the way at the last moment. Choji quickly headed to the opposite end of the sparing zone, then he placed his hands in the ram hand seal and said. "expansion jutsu." and Choji's body began to inflate outlandishly, then he tucked his limbs in and said "human bullet tank" and rolled off at a dangerous speed towards Shino, Shino just manage to doge which sent Choji it the wall which if not for having seal barriers on it would of been crushed under Choji.
"Wow, Choji is so strong."Naruto remarked.
"Don't you mean so fa.."Sasuke got interjected by Naruto and shikamaru who jumped up from his position on the floor and covered his mouth, while they both said "Shhh!"
Shino, ran and kicked Choji, but it barely affected him. Choji began rolling again and knocked Shino back, then he picked up speed and began knocking Shino around like a pin ball, then Choji cancelled the jutsu and while airborne he placed his hands in the ram hand sign and said "Partial expansion jutsu." and he cocked his fist back aiming it at Shino and as he came down, Shino had just stood up and looked at Choji still in a still in a daze and Choji nailed him with the expanded fist which sent Shino flying into a wall and into unconscious at the same time.
"Winner Choji!"Iruka exclaimed. Iruka walked over to Shino and used his green healing chakra to bring him back into consciousness.
The rest of the students cheered for Choji.
"hey, Choji over here!" Naruto exclaimed. Choji headed towards Naruto and the others.
"Great fight Choji."Naruto remarked as Choji neared them already sporting a packet of potato chips.
Shino got up and was heading to his spot in the corner before Naruto called him "Hey, Shino come and watch the fights with us!"Naruto shouted.
"Troublesome loud blondes."shikamaru sighed.
Shino neared Naruto and the others, and nobody could read his emotions, because of the glasses and collar. "Great fight Shino, you really tried your it!"Naruto said with a thumbs up.
"But i barely landed a hit."Shino said disappointingly.
"That's true , but if you were allowed to use your bugs you could of made them eat his chakra."Naruto said encouragingly
"That is true."Shino replied.
"Next match, match six Ranmaru vs riamu."Iruka exclaimed.
A boy about the same age as the rest of academy, walked towards the sparing zone he had long silver hair tied into a loose pony, with two bangs of hair falling down on his face with one that covered his right eye and was black in comparison to the rest of his hair, he had emerald green eyes that projected laziness just like Shikamaru's own. He wore a grey sleeveless hoody and black ankle length pants followed by dark blue shinobi sandals.
"Hey shikamaru who is that guy over there?"Naruto said as he pointed towards the boy in the grey hoody.
"His been in our class from the beginning of the academy Naruto, and his my cousin from a branch clan of the nara, the kage clan they were found by my father, Ino's father and Choji's father when they had been coming back from a mission." shikamaru replied irritable.
"I'm not really in class that much so I don't pay attention to everyone."Naruto replied with a scowl, but then continued to ask "Is he strong."
"Yes his taijutsu is quite good, but they cant manipulate shadows like me, they use their special chakra to create time space ninjutsu."shikamaru said lazily.
"Wow, that's cool."Naruto remarked, but then got an idea that he thought he would ask shikamaru.
"Um shikamaru, if you hold him in place with your shadow and he uses his chakra to teleport, would he be able to teleport."Naruto asked quizzically.
"Yes, he would be able to because the teleportation will take him away from my shadow possession jutsu's range."shikamaru exclaimed.
A boy the same age as his competitor walked towards the sparing zone, he had shoulder length purple hair with two bangs that fell on either side of his face just above his eyes. These were a void dark brown. He wore a high collared white shirt with the kanji for red on the back, followed by knee length black pants with red stripes on either side and dark blue shinobi sandals.
"And who is that Naruto asked, he doesn't look like he could be very good at taijutsu."Naruto remarked.
"He isn't very good, well he is, his form and kata are very impressive but he was born with a weak body. So he had to train his body to the point it is now , so his taijutsu is low genin level , which is sufficient for now and he and his clan have given a dietary plan by the akimichi and furthermore he and his clan are all being trained by a taijutsu specialist of the hidden leaf."Sasuke informed bitterly.
"Wait , let me guess he has a eye power thing."Naruto retorted.
"How did you know?"Sasuke replied somewhat surprised.
"Well, you seem to know more about clans with eye powers than any one else."Naruto replied. Which sent the rest of their academy classmates into fits of laughter.
"Anyway , what eye power does he have ?"Naruto asked.
"He has the akaseishingan, it is basically the same as Rei's bijuarushirogan, they can see the chakra pathways, anticipate attack patterns and their genjutsu ability is just a notch of the kurama clan, this clan has a kekkei genkai that allows genjutsu to be real, not only that they can also cancel the effectiveness of a byakugan's vision.
"Wow that's cool."Naruto remarked before turning his attention to the fight.
Ranmaru was standing in a stance similar to Sasuke and his hands were in the same palm style as Arikuta.
However riamu was in a similar stance to shikamaru, but his arms a little bit more loose.
"Ranmaru vs riamu begin."Iruka shouted as he jumped away.
The fight began with riamu showing an extreme feat of speed as he dash towards Ranmaru and aimed a punch at him, which Ranmaru easily evaded bringing him behind riamu.
Ranmaru proceeded to thrust his palm into Riamu's back, which sent riamu staggering forward, then riamu sent another into his upper back and quickly sent a double palm attack into the centre of his back which sent him to his knees.
"I can kinda see the way his moulding his chakra."Naruto remarked.
"With your sensor vision?"Sasuke asked.
"Yeah, its hard to maintain , but I've unlocked an ability with the sensor vision that now instead of sensing chakra , I can see chakra shapes and the way its moulded and Ranmaru creates thick spikes of chakra like a needle and injects it into his body, but when he pulls out, its like he sucks chakra out to." Naruto answered.
"Of cause, its loosely based off the gentle fist, it uses medical combat and chakra that hits the tenketsu points, stiffens the chakra and can damage muscles at the same time." Shino said finally breaking his silence.
Riamu's breathing had become laboured, as he was gasping for air, so he quickly swept the feet of Ranmaru and dashed to the other side of the sparing zone, so that he could catch his breath.
It took a couple of minutes, but riamu regained his breath and suddenly he slammed his hands together and black chakra surrounded his body then he quickly absorbed it back into his body.
He dashed towards Ranmaru at he speed not even the akaseishingan could track and aimed a punch at Ranmaru's abdomen which caused him to bend over into so much pain that he fell to his knees, taking advantage of this riamu chopped Ranmaru's neck and the then as his face fell to the ground he crushed it into the ground.
"Winner riamu!"Iruka shouted. Iruka quickly came over to Ranmaru and began coating him in green healing chakra which brought him back to consciousness.
"But how?"Ranmaru struggled to say.
"Simple, my chakra you absorbed. Its different."riamu stated as he walked away.
"Um I still don't get it!"Naruto exclaimed.
"Remember, I said he has special chakra? Chakra that no one else has."shikamaru asked lazily.
"Yeah, I can sense it, its dark, not evil dark but more like normal chakra is water and his chakra is like honey."Naruto answered.
"Which means, its very concentrated and you also said that Ranmaru absorbing chakra. So that means he absorbed chakra that's not supposed to be in his body , so when riamu punched him the chakra tried to go back to Riamu's body but was blocked by his body so Ranmaru ended up receiving double the damage."shikamaru replied.
Iruka had just finished healing Ranmaru, he finished off with extracting the black chakra from Ranmaru's body .
"Okay Ranmaru go take a seat and relax, you'll be okay."Iruka instructed.
Iruka waited for Ranmaru to take his seat then he called out the next fight, "Match seven, Takatsu vs Karashi."
The armour glad boy, Takatsu walked towards the sparring zone and awaited the appearance of his opponent.
"Hey, that's the hagoromo guy right Sasuke?"Naruto asked.
"Yes." Sasuke answered.
"But they were rumoured to have disappeared during the time of the first Hokage!"shikamaru exclaimed in a shocked tone.
Then the next fighter appeared, he had long purple hair which had a zig-zag down the middle. He also had two red dots on his fore head, that were just above his blue eyes with red markings under his eyes. The boy wore a mid-calf length kimono with a red sash and two red dots on the back which had a black quarter moon within and next to it was a black circle. He work black ankle length pants and dark blue shinobi sandals.
The two stood in neutral stances, awaiting for the battle to begin.
"Karashi vs Takatsu, begin."Iruka shouted as jumped away from the two.
Takatsu quickly ran at Karashi and aimed a axe kick at his head, however Karashi evaded the attack and suddenly he retracted a bone from his left arm, which had a spike at the end. Takatsu turned around , only to come face to face with Karashi holding a bone to his throat.
"Its over."Karashi said blankly.
"winner Karashi!"Iruka shouted. The two boys returned to their spots in the spectators zone.
"Match eight Taru vs Tenma!" Iruka exclaimed.
A boy with long two tone hair tied in a pony walked towards the sparing zone, the right was black and the left side was white, the boy had a white cloth tied around his forehead which had a black horizontal line running down the middle of it and another vertical line bisecting that, on the right there were two "c" shapes with the horizontal line running through it and on the left there were two reverse "c" shapes. He had golden eyes that looked like they were pieces of the sun. He also wore red senju armour with the kanji for light on his right collar in white and the kanji for darkness on on his left and the left was in black and the right was in white. He wore a long sleeve black under-shirt and long black pants, followed by dark blue shinobi sandals.
The next fighter came towards the sparing zone he had wild orange hair, the Japanese kanji for yin on his forehead., he also had grey slitted eyes. The boy wore senju armour like his competitor , but he had the senju clan insignia on the left and the kurama clan insignia the right, but his armour was blue, he also wore a dark blue under-suit and knee length black pants followed by dark blue shinobi sandals.
"What's with all the armour, this is the damn academy!"Naruto exclaimed.
"The damn senju!"Sasuke retorted irritable.
"Wait did you say senju? Like the first Hokage."Naruto asked in shock.
"No more like his brothers."Sasuke said vaguely.
"Huh, what do you mean."Naruto asked curiously.
"I mean that the guy in blue, Tenma is a descendant of the second Hokage, Tobriama senju, and the guy in the red, Taru is a descendant of Hashirama's other brother Itama senju. Sasuke replied.
"Wow, we have such cool clans."Naruto remarked.
Back on the battle field the two took neutral stances as they were analysing one another.
"Taru vs Tenma, begin!"Iruka exclaimed as he jumped away.
The two senju sprinted towards one another and Taru threw a punch that was blocked by Tenma, suddenly Tenma aimed a punch at Taru's jaw which was caught at the last moment. Taru had a evil smirk plastered on his, and this made Tenma uneasy and that was when Taru leaned to the side and delivered a knee into Tenma's gut which sent him gasping for air, Taru withdrew his knee and delivered another knee into the same spot as before which almost left Tenma with his eyes on the floor from the level of pain he felt. Taru then aimed a roundhouse kick into Tenma's ribs which made contact then a side kick into his abdomen, then another and one more, after the last one he began digging his foot into Tenma's abdomen while pulling his arm toward him until he had Tenma resting on his foot while airborne which left him grasping his abdomen in pain. Taru jumped into the air with Tenma still resting on his foot and then suddenly Taru let go of Tenma's arm and did a spinning back kick, then appeared behind him a delivered a stomp kick to the base of his spine which sent him sailing towards the ground. But before he could make contact something stopped him it was the raised foot of Taru.
"Cousin, y.. oh have got. . . ten stronger."Tenma chocked out before he passed out. Taru placed Tenma carefully on the floor.
"Winner Taru!" Iruka exclaimed.
Iruka walked over to Tenma and placed his hands on his chest and began healing him with green chakra this took about five minutes for it to bring Tenma back to consciousness.
Then Iruka stood up and called the next fight. "and the last match Kiba vs Naruto!"
Naruto and Kiba headed towards the sparing zone. Naruto was going through a mass of thoughts and plans in his head, and at his current skill level , he would only be able to use his endurance to win this.
Naruto stood on the opposite side of Kiba, his stance looked like a combination of many of the stances he had already seen, he had his arms in an x shape and his footwork was similar to that of the hyuga.
"Interesting, Naruto has taken Shikamaru's stance, allowing him to take good a few hits before it actually has an effect and the footwork he has is a bit confusing though."Sasuke pointed out, the rest of the group nodded in agreement, well Choji munched in agreement.
Kiba was in a stance where his knees were slightly bent and his palms were faced outwards, in a claw like manner, which showed Kiba's sharp nails.
"Naruto, I'm going to beat you and it wont even take me thirty seconds."Kiba remarked
"Ha, take down a future Hokage that quickly. . .stupid dog boy."Naruto replied with a wide grin.
"Naruto vs Kiba, begin!"Iruka shouted as he jumped away.
Kiba quickly dashed towards Naruto and aimed claw strikes at him, which got blocked by he 'x 'shape defence, but suddenly Naruto turned his arm , in such a way that his hands would face Kiba, and he opened his hand and grabbed his arm and pulled him towards himself and head-butted him with such a force that it caused Kiba's nose to bleed and his eyes to water, then Naruto aimed a punch at his face sending him falling backwards but Naruto didn't let him go, and this time pulled him while striking his elbow forward which made contact with Kiba's face sending him into a a scream of pain. "Ahhh!"
"Naruto is doing way better than I thought he would do."Sasuke exclaimed.
"It seems that , he was very observant."Shino replied
"Yeah, he took the best parts of all the taijutsu styles his seen and patched them together to form his own style."shikamaru added.
Naruto was now kicking Kiba in the ribs, while still holding his arm ,and every time Kiba tried to remove his arms from Naruto's grip, he would tighten it and aim another blow at Kiba.
Kiba was beginning to fade and that's when he called "passing fang." and twisted into a vortex and was able to get out of Naruto's grip and create some space between the two.
Naruto had to pick himself off the ground because Kiba had thrown him there due to the immense strength of the rotation.
Suddenly Kiba gave another call of "passing fang." and drilled towards Naruto, Naruto fell back into his combination of Shikamaru's style and the gentle-fist style.
As Kiba neared Naruto he pivoted on his front foot and evaded the attack at the last moment, and the way he did it mad it look effortless, and Kiba kept the onslaught going and Naruto kept evading.
"So that's why, his using the gentle fist footwork, his using it to keep him light on his feet, which means his going to take down the passing fang."Sasuke remarked rather impressed.
"Yeah."shikamaru replied.
After a few more drills and evades , Naruto jumped into the air just above Kiba as he evaded him and kicked the drill head and jumped away.
The drill rotation didn't cancel it just got diverted from its course which was down and it sent Kiba out of control and into the ground which created a small hole.
"ahh, that damn hurt!" Kiba said as he climbed out of the hole.
Naruto was way ahead of him , he ran toward Kiba with a jumping heel kick, which Kiba attempted to block, but it never came instead he was swept by the ankle and then Naruto dive-bombed Kiba in the head resulting in knocking Kiba unconscious and leaving himself dizzy.
"Winner Naruto."Iruka exclaimed proudly.
Iruka went over to Kiba and began healing him, with his green went over to the group he had been standing with originally.
"Good fight Naruto." Choji said in-between munches. Sasuke merely nodded in his direction, which Naruto took as a complement as he smirked back.
"You did your best."Shino remarked.
"You fought a good fight Naruto, a real shinobi fight."
"Thanks guys, I guess I was lucky. And shika what do you mean a real shinobi fight?"Naruto asked curiously.
"I mean you used all the tools that were available to you."shikamaru replied.
"Okay class lets head to class and begin our chakra control exercises."Iruka instructed
The rest of the class stopped their chatter and headed to class.
Once in class Iruka begun the next lesson. "Okay class today I'm going to give you the lead exercise, you will all focus your chakra into the leaf and hold it for five minutes, once you're finished you can go home."Iruka instructed.
The whole class placed leaves unto their forehead and begun focusing their chakra, Sakura, Sasuke, and all the eye technique clans were among the first to leave, then shikamaru, Ino and Choji were next to leave followed by Tenma, Taru and Takatsu and whoever else was left, Naruto was the only one left it took him about two hours extra to succeed in the leaf exercise.
"Congrats Naruto."Iruka praised once Naruto completed the exercise.
"Thanks Iruka, but I need more, wait that's it more."Naruto vaguely said as he ran out the class.
"Naruto?" Iruka called.
And that's chapter 2 review and tell me what you think.
