Naruto: Rise of the Ultimate Ninja!

*Instruments*

The Hidden Leaf Village is shown in all its glory. Naruto is standing on top of his father's head at the Hokage Mountain, looking down at it with a grin on his face. He wipes his thumb across his nose.

Yesterday's rules are simply loose today
The best goal is to break them

Naruto is walking around with his hands in his pockets and a bored expression on his face. He grins as he runs ahead, jumping from building to building before he runs on one and flips off of it.

If I don't keep running
There's no other meaning

Naruto lands on the roof, fixing his Forehead Protector. He looks ahead, seeing Sasuke and Sakura smile at him. They looked back and saw Kakashi standing on cable from a utility pole. He knees down and waves at his team.

It's a punk philosophy

Naruto grins and gave his sensei a thumbs up, making Kakashi blink before smiled sheepishly.

Bio-rhythm is...a two-time rhythm

Naruto is on a branch, leaning his back on the tree. He reaches into his pocket and took out a purple star charm, looking at it with a sad frown.

The scenery instantly becomes countless lines

The wind envelops me

A young girl, her upper face shadowed over, appears and she is smiling.

Naruto blinks and walks ahead, while putting his star charm back in his pocket. He jumps off the tree branch and was instantly covered in a blue wind as he starts to fly across the sky.

INSIDE OUTSIDE attack
Surpass everything altogether
I won't let anyone, or anything get ahead of me

Squad 7 is fighting off a bunch of Bandits. Naruto is using his Spin Dash as he got through a bunch of larger Bandits, blowing them all away. Sasuke trips one of them and does kicks some of them across the face. Sakura punched one and then grabs his arm. And Kakashi blocks a sword attack from the Leader and kicked him in the stomach.

Naruto grins as he punched the biggest Bandit away, knocking some teeth out.

INSIDE OUTSIDE, GO! SONIC!
Everything altogether, YES! SONIC!
"Watch out" and "Have a nice" are similar
That's right – both are by the skin of your teeth

A Princess is seen standing on the balcony of her Castle, looking out in the distance. Her face is hidden only showing her mouth. She turns around and heads back inside, showing she's holding a yellow star charm.

A Masked Boy is seen sitting on top of a building. He looks up at the full moon before he stood up and walked away, vanishing into the darkness.

Throw boredom away
And start running

Naruto is holding onto a Ring as it starts to glow brightly. One by one, Sonic the Hedgehog, Shadow the Hedgehog, and Silver the Hedgehog overlaps Naruto place before they disappeared.

He showed a grin as he transformed and was flying through the sky. Naruto then does a Spin Dash as it charges at the screen.

S-O-N-I-C, GO!

Pictures are shown: The first is Naruto is arguing with Sasuke about something while Sakura and Kakashi look on. The second is Squad 7 walking through the Village. The third is Naruto trying to take Kakashi's book, but the Joūnin had his hand on his head to keep him from reaching it. The fourth is Naruto doing his Sexy Jutsu at Iruka, who gained a nosebleed and fell backwards. The last picture is Hiruzen and Naruto on the Hokage Monument watching the sunset.

The scene change to show Naruto and Sasuke fist bumping with smirks on their faces.

S-O-N-I-C, GO!

More pictures are shown: The first is a cage with glowing red eyes appearing in the darkness. The second picture is the Princess looking at a photo of her and Naruto together. The third is the Masked Boy, but his back is turned to the readers and he had his mask off.

The scene changes to show Naruto doing some acrobatic tricks in the air before he grins.

GO, GO, GO, GO, LET'S GO!

Naruto lands on the ground as the camera zooms away from him, showing his Squad together. He finishes the opening as he give a thumbs up.

The Chaos Emeralds appear in the background.


Ultimate 2: Squad 7! The Ultimate Team is Born!

Chapter Cover: Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura are in a pose based on the Sonic Jam cover art.


Two days passed since the Scroll of Seals incident. Ever since Naruto's sudden transformation and the defeat of Mizuki, the Hokage called him in wanting to speak to him alone about it, which was perfect for Naruto, since he can talk to him about his parents.

After telling the Hokage that the transformation was a belated birthday present from some very interesting...er...hedgehogs he had met earlier, much to the Hokage's confusion.

Hedgehogs? There's never been any hedgehogs sightings ever in the Leaf Village. And what exactly did they do to Naruto to make him turn into...this? Were they Summon Animals or something?

Knowing that was all that he was going to get out of Naruto, he dismissed him. But before leaving out to get some rest, Naruto told the Hokage something, that made his heart freeze.

"You were also right about something Old Man. My parents...they weren't just great ninjas. They were the greatest heroes the Leaf Village ever had."

Naruto said those words softly while staring at the picture of the Fourth Hokage, a small smile on his face as he turned to the Hokage and saw the dumbfounded expression.

The Old Kage was about to ask how Naruto knew but the pre-teen put a finger to his lips and winked before leaving. After he left, Hiruzen could've swore that he saw Minato's picture serious expression change into a smile, making him smile as well.

It would seem that whatever those hedgehogs did to Naruto, they somehow told him the truth about who his parents are. He just had a feeling that it was definitely them, making him even more curious about them and where they're at.

It was then that Naruto started to do his training. The greatest thing that Naruto noticed about his change is that he gained the powers and combat skills of Sonic, Shadow and Silver. The reason why is because he kept receiving visions of them using their powers and skills in action.

From Sonic, he has inherited his incredible super fast speed. Even though it's an innate talent that all hedgehogs from their world possess, Sonic's speed was in a class of its own. It had took him a while to get the speed under control as he had ran around the entire village as a yellow blur and would sometimes crash into stuff. But he got it under control in an instant.

From Shadow, he inherited his incredible raw power. While he and Sonic were evenly matched in both speed and power along with combat, it's Shadow's power that outclassed Sonic's speed. From what he learned, he now has the power to tap into this...chaos energy which let's him unleash his chaos powers. He learned that the Inhibitor Rings he wore on his wrists limits the amount of power he uses in combat and other situations. Once he removes them his full power is unleashed which explains the large crater formed after he took out them off while he was out in the village. He surely didn't want to cause a scene.

From Silver, he inherited his telekinesis, if him using it against Mizuki was any indication. His telekinesis is a powerful force on it's own as he used it to mash a bunch of trees together into a giant ball and flew it off somewhere in the distance. He hoped that the ball didn't land on someone's house or something. Unfortunately for him, it did and he had to make sure no one knew it was him.

He also became more acrobatic and agile as he used his Shadow Clones to dodge a bunch of their attacks. His reflexes were also heightened to the point that he can tell who's gonna attack him from a mile away.

All in all, with the other worldly powers of Sonic, Shadow and Silver Naruto is definitely what you call an 'Ultimate Ninja'. Yeah…he likes the sound of that. Naruto Uzumaki, the Ultimate Ninja. From now on that's gonna be his new title.

Now today, Naruto is excited. The reason why?

Today is the day that he'll be put on a Squad. Before he left, he made sure to grab his Forehead Protector, including with the star charm she gave him.

While he was walking to the Academy, he saw a box with two eye holes on it and they were painted to look like rocks. An amused smirk appears as he lifted a finger and pointed at the box.

The box was covered in cyan lights and was thrown away showing a little boy.

"What's up Konohamaru?" He greeted the boy.

Konohamaru is the grandson of the Third Hokage. He wore a yellow shirt with the Konoha symbol in red, grey shorts, and a long blue scarf. He had on a grey helmet that had an orange frowning face on the right side, a red circle on the left side, and had a hole at the top for his brown hair to stick out of.

The two met each other after Naruto went to take his Ninja Registration and the little kid claims he wanted to become the Fifth Hokage. He wanted the people of the Village to see him as Konohamaru Sarutobi and not as 'Honorable Grandson'. Naruto then decided to take the kid in as his rival and little apprentice.

He took him around the Village, teaching him what little he knows about chakra. Not only that, but he gave Konohamaru a demonstration of his Sexy Jutsu. He even had the kid try to turn into a woman, only to turn into an ugly fat version of her.

Of course, Naruto got punched by the woman while she was telling Konohamaru to keep practicing. He even ran into the kid's caretaker Ebisu, the closet pervert who Naruto enjoys mocking.

"That was a slick and awesome move that you did Boss!" Konohamaru exclaimed happily. "You gotta teach me how to do that!"

"...sure." Naruto looked away. In other words, 'sorry kid not happening'. "I got to go back to the Academy for my team placement."

"Team placement?"

"Yeah." Naruto points to his Forehead Protector which is on top of his head with cocky grin. "Today, you're looking at an official ninja."

"Wow!" Konohamaru said in awe.

"Catch ya later." Naruto said as he ran off really fast, turning into yellow blur, leaving an awe Konohamaru behind.

"That. Is. So. COOL!"


Ninja Academy

All of the Genin who graduated from the Academy are talking amongst themselves that they're finally going to become ninjas/kunoichi. Most of the girls however wanted to be kunoichi because they wanted to impress the last survivor of the Uchiha Clan and maybe he'll go on a date with one of them.

Naruto is seen walking through the door and took a seat right next to the girls object of affection. He put his arms behind his and kicked his feet up on the desk, whistling a tune.

One of the students, Shikamaru Nara, stopped walking to go to his seat and took a look at the new guy. Who the heck is that? He never saw him before. His eyes widened in shock when he saw the whisker marks on his face. There was only one person in the Village who only have whiskers.

"Naruto? Is that you?" He asked as the whole class stopped what they were doing and took a look at the red streak blonde, making his eyes widen.

"Oh crap! I was so caught up in training I forgot that these guys haven't seen the new me!"

The girls began to blush at Naruto's new appearance especially a certain Hyuga girl who blushed up a storm at seeing his muscles.

"Hey! What's up with the Genjutsu? I thought you sucked at that! And what are you even doing here? This is for Graduates!" Kiba Inuzuka asked.

"I did graduate!" Naruto exclaimed, surprising everyone by how deep his voice got, as he pointed at his Forehead Protector. He then stood up on his desk, holding his arms out. "This isn't a Genjutsu! It's the real deal!"

"Yeah right." A boy said as he did a hand-sign. "Release!"

...

...

...

Nothing happened. No smoke. No orange clad Naruto. No nothing, which shocked everyone again.

"Satisfied?" Naruto smirks.

"Wait if this is you, actually you, then what happened?" Shikamaru asked.

"Um...well..." Naruto sweat nervously as he tried to come with an answer. What the hell was he supposed to them!? He can't just say 'Oh there were three hunan-like Hedgehogs that were inside me since I was born and they fused together with me'! He had to come up with something that would seem believable.

"I...uh...hit puberty earlier?"

...

All was silent which made Naruto sweat faster. He silently wished, prayed even, that someone or something get him out of this mess.

"HA! I MADE IT FIRST!"

"FAT CHANCE INO-PIG! I MADE IT!"

Everyone turned to the screaming voices and saw that it was the pink haired girl Sakura Haruno and the platinum blond girl Ino Yamanaka.

"Oh thank you God!" Naruto thought as happy tears of relief fell from his eyes.

"Hey!" Naruto looked and saw Sakura walking up to him, looking at him. "Who the heck are-wait a second Naruto!?" Sakura asked in shock. "What happened to you!? You look different!"

"Wait, that's Naruto!?" Ino asked as well.

"Damn it why!?" Naruto thought to himself, before he turns to the two. "...I hit puberty early...hehe"

...

...

...

"OH COME ON!" Naruto complained inwardly. "THAT'S GOTTA TO BE BELIEVABLE!"

"Damn, so you hit puberty before any of us? I'm actually jealous." Kiba said.

"What a drag. Of course it's puberty." Shikamaru said as everyone agreed.

"...They actually fell for it? Yes! Thank you again God!" Naruto thought happily.

"Anyway...your in my way! MOVE IT!" Sakura pushed Naruto off the desk making him fall off and land on his feet.

"Oi!" Naruto exclaimed as he held his palm out, covering Sakura in cyan light, getting everyone's attention. "You didn't even say please!" He began to lift her off the ground, making everyone's eyes widened and causing Sakura to scream out

"W-WHAT IS THIS!?" Sakura screamed as she floated in mid-air.

Everyone was now shock as they turned to Naruto. They never, throughout their years together in the Academy, see Naruto do something like that before! Since when did Naruto have telekinesis!?

They watched as Naruto began to spin his finger, causing Sakura to spin as well as she screamed.

"N-NARUTO! PUT ME DOWN!" Sakura pleaded.

"Nope. Only till you say please." Naruto laughed.

"PLEASE PUT ME DOWN!" Sakura screamed.

"Okay..." Naruto said as he put his arm down, making Sakura drop on Sasuke's lap, making the girls scream in outrage while Sakura blushed heavily that she was on her crush's lap before getting off him.

Sasuke glared at Naruto for the stunt while said red streaked blonde smirked evilly at him before pulling his eye lid and sticking out his tongue.


Meanwhile

The Hokage and a couple of Jōnin are seen in his office and they watched everything that was going on in the Academy through the Third's crystal ball. And to make things simple, they was surprised at Naruto and that power he demonstrated to the whole class.

"Well, that was unexpected." A silver haired man said.

"Yes...Naruto is just full of surprises." The Third chuckled.

The crystal ball starts to show Sasuke still in his brooding state looking at Naruto.

"The most promising new student; Sasuke Uchiha." A male Jounin said. "Is that him?"

"Yes, he is the one." The Third said.

"He's the only survivor left of the Uchiha Clan." A female Jounin with black hair said.

"That's right."

Everyone watched as the image in the crystal ball started to move and started to get a close up on Naruto's face, showing a teasing smile on his face.

"Naruto Uzumaki, huh?" The silver haired Chūnin thought.


"Oh man, Naruto!" Kiba laughed. "That was awesome! Since when did you do that?"

"Since puberty came." Naruto shrugged, deciding to keep to his puberty lie.

"Whoa..." Choji Akimichi said while eating a bag of chips.

"This is the first time I actually saw someone use telekinesis before." Shikamaru said. "I didn't even think something like that exists."

"Well it does now." Naruto smirked, putting his arms behind his head as he leaps and took a seat next to Hinata, making her eyes widen as her face turns red.

"N-Naruto is sitting next to me! What do I do? What do I do?" Hinata thought to herself.

Everyone went quiet when they saw Iruka entering the room.

"Okay class! Take your seats." Iruka told them as everyone did so.

Naruto knowing full well what Iruka was going to say next tuned him off. His speech was about hardships of being a ninja and the responsibilities that they now had to take, blah blah blah. He eventually heard his sensei talking about the three man Squad and began to call out the teams and the Genin who was placed on it.

"Squad 7..." Iruka spoke. "Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno..."

"HA! TAKE THAT INO-PIG!" Sakura shouted pointing at the platinum blonde.

"SHUT UP FOREHEAD GIRL!"

"BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP!" Iruka shouted using his famous Big Head Jutsu.

"Sorry Iruka-sensei." They apologized.

"And Naruto Uzumaki. Your Jōnin will be Kakashi Hatake." Iruka said.

"Aw man~ I'm with Mr. Edgy and his wife Mrs. Bubblegum." Naruto whined as the two glared at him, getting his attention. He shrugs at them. "What? I got nothing else to describe you two."

"Hmph. Just don't get in my way, loser." Sasuke told him.

"What the fu-?!" Naruto was gonna shout before Iruka decked him in the face with an eraser.

"Squad 8 will be Kiba Inuzuka, Hinata Hyuga, and Shino Aburame. Your Jōnin will be Kurenai Yuhi." Iruka said, ignoring Naruto's groans, as the three nodded.

Hinata however was sad that she won't be on the same team as Naruto. She turned to him and saw that he was looking back smiling at her. "Oh my gosh! N-Naruto is looking right at me!" She began to blush tomato red when he leaned to her ear.

"Good luck with your new team, Hinata." He whispered, making her nod as she looked down, a smile on her face.

"Squad 10 will be Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara, and Choji Akimichi. Your Jōnin will be Asuma Sarutobi."

"NOOOO!" Ino yelled in disbelief as she slammed her head on her desk as well.

"What a drag..." Shikamaru said as he closed his eyes with Choji nodding his head in agreement.

"That's all for today. You will await here for you Jounins to come and pick you up. Good luck and be careful out there." Iruka said as he exited the room.


Later

The Genin have met their Sensei and went with them except for Squad 7. Sakura is seen pacing around back and forth with an angry look on her face, Naruto is lying on the desk with his eyes closed and feet tapping impatiently, and Sasuke was brooding as usual while looking at the window.

There was nothing but complete silence.

"OKAY THAT'S IT!" Naruto yelled as he stood up and he looks at the eraser board and used his telekinesis to lift it above the door.

"Naruto what are you doing now?" Sakura asked, putting her hands on her hips.

"Teaching our teacher a lesson." Naruto said, a smirk on his face.

"He's a high level shinobi." Sasuke said. "There's no way he could fall for such a stupid stunt."

"Oh yeah? Just watch!" Naruto chuckles evilly. "He'll be here in 3...2...1..."

"Is this Squad 7?"

"NOW!" Naruto released the eraser as it landed on the silver-haired Jōnin head, making white chalk dust appear.

Sasuke looked on with a raised eyebrow, Sakura had a surprised and slightly nervous expression, and Naruto had that smirk on his face. The Jōnin didn't say anything as he stared at them.

"Hmm...how do I put this?" The Jōnin said looking thoughtful. "You're all a bunch of idiots."

That caused Sakura to have a depressed expression, Sasuke glared at him, and Naruto had a half lidded expression.

"Well, meet me on the roof." He said as disappeared in a swirl of leaves.

"...I hate him already." Naruto said, unknowingly Sasuke agreed.


Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura were all seated on the roof of the Academy, while their sensei was in front of them on top of a railing.

"Okay, now that you are all here. Let's introduce ourselves."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Sakura asked.

"You know likes, dislikes, hobbies, dreams for the future." The Jounin said.

"Why don't you start first?" Sakura suggested causing the Jōnin to say.

"Well, my name is Kakashi Hatake. I have a few likes, and many dislikes. My hobbies are not your concern."

"All we know is his name..." The Genin thought.

"Okay, you're next." Kakashi said, pointing at Sakura.

"My name is Sakura Haruno. My likes..." Sakura blushed and turned to Sasuke. "I mean the person that I like is..." Still looking at Sasuke. "My dreams for the future..." She blushed even and squeaked happily.

"And what do you hate?"

"Naruto!"

"You still mad about that? You need to let it go." Naruto said, uncaring picking his ear. "You'll start to have wrinkles early if you keep that up, ya know?"

"W-What?! Shut up! No I won't!" Sakura denied even though she secretly took out a mirror to check to see if there were any wrinkles.

Kakashi sweat dropped from that before pointing at Naruto. "Okay, your up."

"Heh! Naruto's the name, speed's my game. My likes are hedgehogs, adventures, chilling, ramen and chili dogs, among other things that's too long to list and I really don't feel like saying." Naruto said as everyone looked at him with confused expressions.

"Hedgehogs?" Kakashi asked. He began to wonder why this kid likes hedgehogs so much but he did sweat drop at the last bit.

"What are chili dogs?" Sakura asked.

"Tell you later. My dislikes are...okay, that list is too long as well, so I'll skip it. I don't have any hobbies, unless rolling around at the speed of sound counts." Kakashi sent a deadpan look at Naruto, wondering what he was talking about. "My dream is to be the greatest Hokage to ever exist and to surpass all the Hokage from the past..." Naruto face softens as he looks down. "And most of all, to find someone very important to me."

Everyone stared at Naruto as he spoke in that soft gentle voice. Sasuke and Sakura had no idea that of all people had someone important to him, so of course they were curious about it. They even wanted to know who that special is.

Kakashi however just nodded his head and turns to Sasuke. "Okay, you."

"My name...is Sasuke Uchiha." Sasuke said. "I hate a lot of things and I don't like anything. My dream for the future...no my goal is to avenge my clan and kill a certain someone." He finished darkly.

The atmosphere grew very dark from what Sasuke said as everyone looked at him with various reactions.

"He's so hot..." Sakura thought with a blush.

"Sheesh. Who the hell pissed him off?" Naruto thought, giving Sasuke a pointed look.

"Just as I thought..." Kakashi said looking at Sasuke. He turned to the others. "Good. You're each unique and have your own ideas. We'll have our first mission tomorrow."

"Oh yeah! Now we're talking!" Naruto stood up in excitement. "So, what's the mission? We kicking any bad guy butt or something?"

"It's a task...that the four of us will do together." Kakashi said slowly.

"Come on, don't leave us in the dark, what's the mission?" Naruto asked, now getting impatient.

"A survival exercise." Kakashi replied, getting his Genin Squad's attention.

Naruto had a disappointed look on his face. "Say wha~?"

"I thought we were suppose to have a real mission not more practice." Sakura said. "We already did this stuff at the Academy, that's how we got here."

"I don't think this is like our previous training." Naruto said for Kakashi causing Sakura to look at him with a curious expression.

"He's right you know." Kakashi chuckled. "Of the 27 graduates who just came here, only 9 will actually be accepted as Genin. The other 18 will be sent back to the Academy."

"So in other words..." Naruto spoke up getting everyone's attention. "It's a pass or fail test. And if we fail we'll be sent back."

"Give the boy a prize." Kakashi said clapping his hands. He got up. "Meet up at Training Ground 7 tomorrow and skip out on breakfast or else...you'll puke. That's all for today." He finished as he disappeared in a swirl of leaves.

"You gotta be kidding me." Naruto deadpanned as he ran and jumped off the roof, landing onto the next one, leaving Sasuke and Sakura behind.


Next Day

The sun is seen rising over the horizon and Squad 7 is waiting for their Sensei. Sakura had an angry look on her face, Sasuke is resting on a tree, and Naruto was tapping his feet impatient. The sun has now high in the sky and their sensei have finally arrived.

"Morning everyone. Ready for your first day?"

"YOU'RE LATE!" Sakura screeched.

"Well a black cat crossed my path so I had to take the long way." Kakashi said eye smiling at them.

"Really?" Naruto asked with a half-lidded gaze.

Kakashi walked over to a stump and sat an alarm clock on it getting curious glances from his Genin. He pushed the yellow button that was on top of it and took out two bells.

"What's up with those?" Naruto asked.

"Your assignment is very simple. You just have to take these bells away from me. That's all there is to it." Kakashi explained. "Now the alarm is set to noon. So if you can't get them by then, you can't have lunch." He turned to the three wooden posts. "You'll be tied up to those posts and watch while I'll eat my lunch in front of you."

Stomachs can be heard growling and the kids had hungry looks on their faces.

"Why did we listen to this guy?" Naruto thought in despair.

"Hey hold on, there's three of us." Sakura said. "So how come there's only two bells?"

"Well that way, at least one of you will be tied to a post and ultimately disqualified for failing for completing the mission." Kakashi explained eye smiling at them. "That one goes back to the Academy. You may also begin to go all out on me."

"But sensei, wouldn't you get hurt?" Sakura asked causing Naruto to just shake his head.

"He's a Jonin, Sakura. Meaning that he can't get hurt from us Genin."

"That's right." Kakashi said. "You may begin...NOW!"

Sasuke and Sakura jumped away hiding from away while Naruto stood there with a tired expression on his face. Kakashi tilted his head to the side with a deadpanned expression.

"You know compared to the others, you're a little...weird."

"Yeah? Well the only thing that's weird here is that haircut. There, that hurts don't it?" Naruto asked as he did a few stretches. "Yeah! That's right, I'm stretching. Got a problem with that? I want to enjoy taking you down, without some pulled muscle slowing me down." He then started to do a few jabs. "Okay, let's do this. Course...if you wanna run away..." He starts to do push-ups with one hand. "Please feel free. There's no shame in it." He stood up. "Well, maybe a little shame."

Kakashi, along with the other two, sweat drops at Naruto. They watched as he got up and cracked his knuckles. Kakashi reached into his pouch and took out an orange book that read 'Icha Icha Paradise'.

"What the?" Naruto asked with a sweat drop. "What are you doing?"

"Just reading. And I just want to find out what happens in the end." Kakashi said reading it.

A vein appeared on Naruto's head as his eye twitched. This guy was mocking! Oh he's so gonna regret that!

Battle Music: Emerald Beach [Sonic Battle]

He took off in an yellow streak of light and went into Kakashi's face which surprised him. He went forward to go and punch him but he quickly dodged it by jumping a few meters away. Naruto ran to him again and went to go try to knee him in the face. But his sensei blocked it, with his arms, and was sliding across the dirt while still standing.

"Whoa!" Kakashi thought looking at Naruto. "That was seriously too close. I didn't sense any chakra, that was pure speed! He might even be faster than Guy! The Third wasn't joking, this kid is seriously full of surprises."

Sakura, who was hiding under a bush, watched the event take forward in awe. She never saw Naruto move that fast before and he actually made their sensei slid across the dirt. "Whoa...how did Naruto move so fast?"

Sasuke, who was hiding on a tree branch, watched everything with his eyes widening in shock. All he saw was a yellow blur and Naruto just appeared in front of him. There's no doubt about it. That was pure speed Naruto had.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Naruto did the hand sign. In a puff of smoke 7 Narutos appeared around him. "Get him!"

The clones charged in at Kakashi who just looked at them while holding his book. "Wow. So the rumors are true."

The clones jumped to the air and began to air dash towards him. Just when Kakashi was about to move in, he was stopped by two other Naruto's coming from behind him, which in turn caught him by surprise.

"You should never turn your back on your enemies sensei!" The real one exclaimed crossing his arms.

Sasuke gasped from that and Sakura was in awe how cool Naruto became. They watched as the rest of the clones began to hold Kakashi in as he was struggling to get them off of him.

"I was wrong. Naruto is definitely cool!" Sakura exclaimed smiling at him.

"CHA! Take him down!" Inner Sakura exclaimed.

"He used the Clones as a way to keep him immobile. Nice!" Sasuke thought as a smirk appeared on his face.

Naruto held his palm out and the cyan circles begins to glow with his hands being covered in cyan aura. "MOVE!" He commanded the clones as they did so and Kakashi was now seen floating with a cyan aura appearing all over him.

"Well now...this is really impressive." Kakashi said, looking at Naruto. "Your actually using telekinesis. That's a rare ability to have."

"Thanks." He smirked as he moved his hand backed and began to gather enough psychokinetic energies.

After he was finished charging, he moved his hand forward and sent out a strong shock wave of psychokinetic energies making Kakashi fly backwards to a tree. Sasuke and Sakura gasped at how fast Kakashi was sent flying but all he had was a bored expression.

When he hit the tree, he gasped out in pain but soon disappeared in a puff of smoke causing the Genin to raise an eyebrow. When the smoke cleared up, Kakashi was replaced with a log making the Genin's eyes to widen.

"What the hell-where did he go!?" Naruto asked. He looks around the area and saw that a bell was on the ground. A half lidded expression appeared on his face before grins smugly. "Does he really think I'm gonna fall for a stupid trick like that?" His eyes looked around him before he used his telekinesis to make the bell come to him. His eyes widen as he sensed danger.

"NARUTO! Look out behind you!" Sakura called out causing said red streak blonde's eyes to widen.

"Oh crap." He turns his head really fast and saw Kakashi kneeling behind him with a hand sign. His pupils shrank when he saw his hand was aiming for his butt. "Y-You wouldn't dare!"

"Hidden Leaf Jutsu: A Thousand Years of Death!" Kakashi called out with a twinkle in his eyes as he charged his hand to Naruto's behind.

Music Ends

"AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" Naruto screamed comically as he got sent flying away and into the pond.

Sakura had an annoyed expression. "All he did was poke him." She whispered.

"Those two...are total idiots." Sasuke whispered as he shook his head but then his eyes widen as he realized Kakashi's wasn't paying attention and was only picking up the bell. "His guard is down! Now's my chance!" He threw a bunch of shurikens at him.

The shurikens hit Kakashi causing him to fly a few meters back. That made Sakura gasped in shock that their sensei just got hit.

POOF!

The white haired Jōnin used a Substitution Jutsu again and this time he disappeared without a trace. Sasuke soon started to jump from tree branch to tree branch, trying to escape from the Jounin since he gave away his position.

"He let his guard down on purpose!"

Naruto has just rose from the pond and coughed out water. He spun around really fast and was dry in a second.

"Oh. It's on." Naruto growled in anger at being stabbed in the butt. He then ran off.


Sakura was following/searching for her crush. "Sasuke, where'd you go? Don't tell me Kakashi-sensei got to you? No! He can't capture my Sasuke! I won't let him!"

The pink Kunoichi stopped her running when she saw Kakashi leaning on a tree reading that perverted orange book. "Good." She whispered. "He didn't see me. I'm safe."

"Sakura. Behind you."

She gasped and turned around only to be face to face with her sensei. She suddenly felt really dizzy and there was a whole bunch of leaves flying around her. She closed her eyes and opened them again as she turned to many directions with a confused expression.

"Oh my! I think I felt something! What was it!?"

"S-Sakura..."

"Sasuke!" Sakura beamed happily as she turned to him. She then stood there as her precious Sasuke was all bloody and that he had several kunais on his body.

"S-Sakura...help me. Please. Help me!"

Sakura eyes started to tear and she screamed to the heavens above. She soon fainted.

Kakashi is seen sitting on a tree branch reading his orange book. "I think I overdid it a bit. But she's got to learn how to see through these things."


Naruto blinked as he stops running and looks around. "Sakura? What the heck happened to her?" He asked himself. His eyes widened as he sensed something close by. "W-What...?" He looks to where his senses was tingling, completely forgetting about his revenge for that sneak attack.

He runs towards it and saw that there was a small hole in the ground.

"Huh?" Naruto digs the dirt out and his eyes widened as he saw a green glowing wmerald. "An emerald? What's that doing out here?" He slowly reaches out and touched it.

The moment he did he felt a surge of energy seep into his system. As it did, Naruto saw a vision of the seven Emeralds together before it changed to show Shadow holding one of them in his hands. The vision also showed Sonic transforming using those emeralds, including Shadow and Silver.

The vision ended as Naruto snapped out of his thoughts and shook his head. He looks down at the emerald in awe. "Chaos Emeralds...the gems of miracles…"

Naruto close his eyes and began to concentrate on the Emerald. Once he did, it started to glow. "Chaos Control!" Once those words left his lips, time stopped all around him. Naruto runs to the clock and saw it stopped.

"WHOA! It worked! Which means..." Naruto trailed off. He quickly ran off and saw Kakashi standing behind a tree watching Sasuke and Sakura. "Oh this is gonna be good." He walks up behind Kakashi and took the bells, putting them in his pocket. He then took another pair of different bells which were gold and had a blue string on it.

"Still though it doesn't make sense. Why would our teach give us this test with just two bells when there's only three of us? Three of us but only two bells and only two of us can pass..." Naruto thought out loud before his eyes slowly widen. "What if...what if this isn't just a test for one of us to get the bells but all three of us to get them together, as a team! That's why we're a three man cell! That's also why he's making us Genin fight him a Jōnin! We're supposed to fight him together to get the bells not at once!"

He face-palmed himself in disbelief. "Damn, could've figured that out sooner. Hey at least now I know I feel smarter." He looks around and heads back to the kunai-shaped stone. "Time for me to return time back to normal."

He snaps his fingers as everything returned to normal.

RIIIIIIINNNNNGGGG!

"I am so gonna have fun with this." Naruto muttered to himself as he threw the emerald in the air before catching it and putting it in his pocket. He was going to walk off but stopped when he saw a bento lying around.

His stomach growled as he eyed it before looking left and right. He ran up to it and opened it up, seeing that there was actual smoking hot food in it.

Naruto drooled at the sight of it. "Well...maybe a tiny bite won't hurt." He picks it up and was going to walk off.

"I don't think so." A voice spoke up from above Naruto, making him stop in his track.

"...crap." Naruto sweated before he chuckled sheepishly. "Say, you know I'm just playing around, right Teach?"

"Nice try." Kakashi said.


Naruto had crocodile tears falling from his eyes. The reason why? It's because he's tied to one of the post while Sasuke and Sakura sat in front of them. Kakashi stood in front of them, looking at them with hard look in his eye.

"Well now..." Kakashi spoke up appearing before the Genin. "Looks like all three of you didn't manage to capture the bells, which means you fail."

"Oh yeah?" Naruto asked, as his entire being glowed. Something came out of his pocket and floated in front of everyone, showing it were the bells, shocking them to the core.

"The bells!?" Sakura asked.

"When did-?" Sasuke thought in shock.

Kakashi checked his pouch, where the bells were hung...and they were there?! No wait, these are different bells as they were colored gold and they had blue ribbons tied on them. He actually switched the bells around!? He turns to Naruto in amazement.

"How did you?"

"When you weren't paying attention to me and was busy fighting Sasuke, I used my telekinesis to quietly get the bells and managed to replace them with the ones I got from the store." Naruto lied, as he didn't want to tell them about his time-stopping ability...yet. He got out of the ropes and wrapped his arm around Sasuke's neck bringing him close, much to his annoyance. "It was all apart of the plan, right Sasuke?"

"Plan?" Kakashi tilt his head to the side.

"What are you talking about?" Sakura asked.

Sasuke blinked and looked at Naruto, since he had idea what he was talking about.

"Yup. After you caught Sakura, I managed to drag Sasuke away and told him about this awesome plan of mine." Naruto explained. "Sasuke is more of a lone wolf type of guy, so I told him to distract you while I went into hiding and use my telekinesis to take the bells, right from underneath your nose." He stuck his tongue out.

"When did you get the time to actually talk to Sasuke?" Kakashi asked, slightly impressed.

"Hey, I'm the fastest thing alive." Naruto smirked. "Not even you can keep up with me. Right Sasuke?" He turns to his rival and winks at him.

Sasuke was no fool. He knew damn well that Naruto is a total lier and he actually got their sensei fooled. But he must have some reason to lie to their teacher like that. And judging from the look in his eyes, he wanted him to play along.

"Tch." Sasuke scoffed and released himself from Naruto, looking away.

Sakura was amazed at Naruto's plan as she looked at him in a whole new light. But she won't lie, she felt herself embarrassed at being caught in simple Genjutsu and fainted like that.

Kakashi stared long and hard before he eye smiled. "Hm, very impressive. Looks like Naruto managed to capture both bells at the same time especially with Sasuke's help. Now the question is...who are you going to give the bells too?"

"Both of them." Naruto said, using his telekinesis to give them to his Squad, causing Sakura to gasp and Sasuke's eyes to widen.

"Are you sure Naruto?" Kakashi asked. "Cause if you give those two the bells then you'll be the one to be sent to the Academy."

"Yeah, I'm cool with it." Naruto said.

"But Naruto!" Sakura spoke getting his attention. "That means you just failed the test! What about your dream of becoming Hokage or finding that person you were talking about?" She hands the bell back to him. "Here you can have mine."

"Huh?" Naruto blinked in surprise. Did Sakura just offer him a bell? "No you keep it! I don't want it!"

"But you got them before us! So you at least deserved it!"

"But I don't want you guys to fail! We're supposed to be a team right? What kind of teammate am I if both of you don't pass?"

Sakura's eyes widened from that along with Sasuke. She looks at the bell then at Naruto. "Then...then I don't want it!" She said as she threw the bell at Kakashi, who caught it in his hands

"I don't want it neither." Sasuke said, getting everyone's attention, he tossed the bell at Kakashi. "The fact that Naruto's plan worked and that he's willing to give them to us, shows that he wants us to be a team. And if he doesn't get to be apart of our team then I might as well not take it."

"Sasuke...Sakura…" Naruto was absolutely stunned silence. He was not expecting that kind of reaction at all, especially from these two. It nearly brought a tear to his eyes.

"Well then...you all pass." Kakashi said eye smiling with the Genin, except Naruto, looking at him with confused expression.

"Huh? What do you mean we passed?" Sakura asked.

"You're the first Squad to ever succeed." Kakashi said.

"Really? We're the first?" Naruto asked, making sure he heard right.

"All the others had no idea whatsoever about this test, unlike you 's why we put you into three man Squads, it's all about teamwork." Kakashi explained. "Here's something I would like all for you learn." He walks up to a Kunai-shaped structure that has people's names on it.

"Have you ever seen this stone? The names engraved on it? These are Ninja who are honored as heroes in the Village."

"You mean..." Naruto trailed off, looking uncomfortable, as Kakashi nodded.

"This is a Memorial Stone. The names of my closest friends are on it. Some of them, including one of my friends, broke some rules but were still considered heroes in the end." The Genin looked down in mourning for those heroes.

"Mom...Dad...are you on there?" Naruto asked.

"In the ninja world, those who break the rules are scum, that's true." Kakashi looks up at the sky. "But those who abandoned their friends are worse than scum."

Naruto chuckled as grinned.

"Oh." Sakura smiled.

Sasuke closed his eyes and smiled.

Insert Song: You're My Number One [Sonic R]

"The exercise is over." Kakashi said. "Everyone passes. Squad 7 starts its first mission tomorrow!" He gave his Genin a thumbs up.

"Yes!" Sakura cheered happily.

"ALRIGHT!" Naruto flipped in the air and did a pose.

Sasuke nodded to himself.

"Let's go home." Kakashi said as they all walked away together.

Naruto looked at the stone one more time before he smiled and nodded to himself as he walks away.

Song Ends


Naruto is in his apartment, staring at the Chaos Emerald. "A Chaos Emerald. Seven Emeralds that hold the key to unlock unlimited power. I can't believe Sonic and the others had these in their world."

Naruto stared at the Emerald once more as he lied in bed. "From the vision I saw these Emeralds have both positive and negative energy which the hedgehogs, or anyone in general can use them for amazing or terrifying things. I hate to imagine what would happened if someone managed to get their hands on all seven of them and used them for evil purpose, especially if they're ninja."

Ending 1: The Shining Road [English Version]

*Instruments*

He sits up and looks outside. "Since I got one of them then that means there's six more out there somewhere. I better find them before anyone else does." He grins to himself. "Looks like things have just gotten way past cooler! Adventure here I come!"


The world around us is so magical
But now it's been placed under a spell

The shot of the Hidden Leaf Village is shown at night. However, the sun starts to rise in the distance.

My love, come with me and together we shall search to find a charm

We'll travel to the land of our dreams where forbidden dreams just may come true

Naruto is sitting on top of the Fourth Hokage's mountain head as he stares at the rising sun. The wind starts to blow as it moved his hair to the side. He looks down at his hand, staring at his star charm, a sad look on his face.

He close his eyes and puts the charm on his chest for a moment, not seeing it glowing slightly.

When we're alone tomorrow, we will sneak away and secretly meet

Up on top of a hill, where there are birds everywhere and we can be all alone

At the same time, a Princess is seen at her castle, staring at the rising sun as well, a sad look on her face. She walks back to her room and picks up her star charm from her bed, placing it on her chest and closing her eyes, not seeing it glow.

I know someday, I'll hold your hand. While we sit alone in the morning mist

And the seal in our way, of our shining road will be broken

Back in the Leaf Village, a younger Naruto opens his eyes and saw he was in a mist. He walks forward, looking around in confusion.

Unknown to Naruto, the Princess, who got younger also, appeared behind him and was looking around as well. They both stopped walking as they felt each other's presence.

They slowly looked back at each other with surprised expressions. Naruto ended up smiling happily as he ran to her and grabbed her hand, bringing a smile on the Princess's face. The two ran off together, before they disappeared.

Till the end of time

Naruto and the Princess, in their older forms, stood back to back, eyes closed and smiles present on their faces. In their hands, were their star charms.


Omake: Naruto's Speedy Accident

Naruto stood on a roof as he looks around, seeing the area was in the clear. "Okay, no people around, streets are in the clear. Alright! Let's do it to it!"

The Ultimate Ninja jumps off the roof of the building and starts to run around the empty streets at supersonic speed. Since the streets were cleared it was safe for him to run around whenever and however he wants. Plus, nobody would be out this late at night.

"Ah yeah! Gotta go faster!" Naruto cheered as his legs turned circular and he was starting to leave behind a trail of fire. "Ha! I haven't had this much fun in a long time!" If he were to pay attention, he would have noticed something on the road ahead of him. "This is way past-!"

Everything stopped for a moment as Naruto's foot made contact with a banana peel. Time returned to normal as Naruto instantly stopped running and slid on the peel.

"WAAAAAAAHHHH!" He screamed as he rolled comically down the road and into the public bathhouse.

The bathhouse that's currently being occupied by women.

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!"

The women's screams echoed throughout the night, along with the pained screams of poor Naruto Uzumaki as he was getting the beat down of a lifetime.
