The Drunken Maelstrom of Konoha
Author's Note: Hello Everybody, Here's chapter 2 and I should've explain some things about this story. To answer a few questions, Haku will be a girl in this story and I know I'm not the only person here that thinks Haku was or should've been a girl in Canon and I'm also adding Kin when into the mix. Also the reason I chose Drunken Fist was because it was inspiration from the movie 'Drunken Master' and it would be funny to see Naruto use it besides Rock Lee. Anyway on with the story.

Chapter 2: From Loser to Winner
Hearing his alarm going off, Naruto pushed the off button and got up to stretch and shake off the sleepiness from his body. "A new day and a new year, time to show the new Uzumaki Naruto to the academy!" Naruto shouted. He left his room and did his daily routines in the morning, brush his teeth, take a shower, and get dressed. He ate some breakfest, which consist of eggs, toast, and sliced apples. After he finished, he went towards the cabinet and got his sake and feeled up his canteen. "Ahh, the finest in Fire Country." Naruto said to himself and took a whiff of his drink. With the canteen full, he walked out his apartment and headed towards the academy.
Walking through the streets, the civilains was staring at Naruto with hate and anger, but Naruto didn't seem to care of what they were doing at the moment as he was a lot more focused on the Academy. 'These villagers are not going to ruin my mood, I've been beaten and stabbed by them before in the past, but none of that will change me in my goals to become Hokage.' Naruto thought with fierce determination and took a drink from his canteen and it soothe his thoughts and smiled a bit as he made his way to the Academy. He entered the class and instantly everyone was surprise to see Naruto since he was taller, his hair grew, changed clothes, and looked stronger than he did before the summer ended.
"Yo Iruka-sensei, I took your advice and found a Taijutsu style that I can honestly say it's suited for me and as you can see from the results of my training for the whole summer." Naruto decided to lift his shirt halfway showing his 6 pack abs, making most of the girls turn red in the face and made a certain Hyuga faint with a nosebleed and a perverted smile. "W-well Naruto I'm glad you took my advice and I'm also impress with your training, by the way, what style did you find?" Iruka asked, getting over his stupor. "Well I wouldn't mind showing you or anyone else, does anyone want to challenge me?" Naruto asked looking around seeing if anyone wanted to fight outside. "I'll fight you dobe and make you lose again." Sasuke said with a arrogant smirk.
Taking a drink from his canteen and looked at Sasuke with a raised eyebrow. 'He sure is full of himself.' Naruto thought. "Ok Ducky, let's go." Naruto said. Sasuke got annoyed by the nickname and everyone went to the field where all of the Taijutsu matches take place.
They got to the field and everyone made a circle around the field, Iruka and his assisstant, Mizuki, were going over the rules while Sasuke was stretching and Naruto was simply sitting on the ground, drinking from his canteen like he had no care in the world with a bored look on his face.
"You going to sit there all day dobe or you going to fight and lose again. "Sasuke said getting some laughs from the other students and a chuckle from Mizuki. Naruto narrowed his eyes and got up, cracked his neck and took one more drink. "I'm reaaady when you are Duck-ass." Naruto slurred as he started wobbling and stumble a bit on his feet and put his arms out and his hands as if he was holding small teacups and leaned forward and leaned backwards as well (AN: For those wondeing what the stance look like whoever played as Cheng Fu in Double Dragon or Lei from Tekken, that's his stance.) People were confuse and was also laughing thinking that the stance was ridiculous.
"What kind of stupid stance is that baka?" Sakura yelled. People were laughing thinking that Naruto would lose again, but only a few people were not laughing and knew something was off. Shino Aburame was calm and quiet as usual, but was actually analyzing Naruto's stance and got some information from his insects telling him that Naruto was actually sober and pretending to be drunk. 'Interesting, I'm quite curious on what you'll show us Naruto-san.' Shino thought. Shikamaru Nara was looking at Naruto with a calculating eye as he knew something troublesome was going to happen in any moment. Hinata Hyuga was shock seeing Naruto looking drunk, but she recognized the style, yet couldn't remember where she seen it before and wasn't the only one that knew the style. Iruka knew this style as Drunken Fist and was quite surprise that Naruto chose that perticular style, not to mention he smelled the sake from the blond. 'In all the styles you chose, you pick this one Naruto?' Iruka thought with a sweatdrop.
As everyone started to settle down, Iruka got in the middle of the field and look at the two students to see if they were ready. "Ready begin!" Iruka shouted. Sasuke dashed towards Naruto with impressive speed and try to land a right hook, but Naruto dropped to the ground dodging the punch and looked with a bored look at Sasuke and then sweep the dark haired boy off his feet. Sasuke got up with a sneer and started to engage Naruto with fist flying towards the blond, but was moving all over the place as he was still stumbling on his feet, but soon batted a fist away and Naruto then turned around and bended his back in a 90" degree angle and started to punch Sasuke in the gut as he walked backwards.
Everyone was blown away that the dead-last, who would always lose in the Taijutsu fights and found a style that look stupid by their eyes, was actually winning the fight. Naruto, who was still in a pretend drunken state, got near Sasuke and looked like he was going to throw a very sloppy punch, instead he did a one hand stand and hit Sasuke in the face with the flat of his foot and as soon as Sasuke layed on the ground for a second, Naruto delivered a elbow drop onto his chest. Then Naruto got up to take a drink, but no one knew that he didn't swallow the sake and waited for Sasuke to get up to his feet, in which he did and was panting and angry at the fact he was losing.
"What kind of idiotic style is that you dobe!?" Sasuke yelled. Naruto simply smiled and soon appear in Sasuke's face and spitted the sake, which caused a uproar from Sasuke's fanclub, but Naruto ignored it and started a series of backhanded punches and roundhouse kicks onto the Uchiha and then got into a double hand stand and was kicking Sasuke, who was failing to block the kicks while Naruto was walking on his hands and decided to take it up a notch and speed up the kicks. Soon, Naruto did a front flip off his hands and punched Sasuke in the jaw, knocking him out the ring, and leaned back with his hands still looking like he was holding tea cups. "To answerrr your question, Sasssuke, the style is calllled Drunken Fist." Naruto slurred with half-lidded eyes and started punching and kicking the air, demonstrating the style and got into a pose. "By the way, I'm not drunk." Naruto said with a smirk on his face and stop wobbling and stood straight and cracked his back. "Winner, Uzumaki Naruto." Iruka yelled.
Naruto, who had a shocked look on his face simply did something that he hasn't done in quite some time, he made a true smile and was proud of himself that he won for the first time in the academy, but knew he had a long way to go and knew he had to graduate and show everyone that he was someone in their eyes. 'One step closer just got to focus and pass the exam when it comes soon, then Hokage here I come.' Naruto thought still smiling as everyone started to head back inside the academy, still amazed at the skill that Naruto displayed and not only did he win, but he defeated one of the top students in their class. Yup, everything was looking up for our blond hero, but there's always going to be trials for him in the upcoming future.
