3 Days Later
It's been three days since Naruto and his team was nominated for the Chunin Exams, since then the other members of team 7 have been trying to found out what caused his change, with little success. Naruto was currently in the Hokage's office.
"So what can I do for you Old man?" Naruto asked curiously
"Well Naruto I have a mission for you it will be your first mission as a Special Jonin." Sarutobi explained
"Sure I'll take the…what do you mean Special Jonin I'm a Genin." Naruto said
"Well the Shinobi Council found out you were the Anbu Captain Commander that helped the rebels in Kiri win the war." Sarutobi said causing Naruto's eyes to widen before he face palmed
"And what did they say?" Naruto asked
"Well they wanted you to take your place as Namikaze/Senju/Uzumaki Clan head. For you to do that you have to be at least of Jonin rank " Hiruzen said
"I get Namikaze and Uzumaki but Senju?" Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow
"Yes Mito-sama was the Head of the Senju Clan as well. When Tsunade left she gave the title to your mother Kushina. Now that position falls to you."
"sigh…fine so what's the mission?"
"Your goal is to make sure that Sasuke Uchiha makes it out of the Forest of Death alive." Sarutobi said seeing Naruto's eyes narrowed he quickly continued "We got word that Orochimaru will make a move to get him."
"If Orochimaru gives him a curse mark. I'll place a seal that will destroy his Sharingan whenif he tries to run from the village. I was able to removes Anko's because I marked her as my mate." Naruto explained
"That'll be best." Sarutobi said
"Do the Jonin sensei know about my promotion?" Naruto asked
"Yes all except Kakashi, he doesn't know because he was late to the meeting. Your position is a secret till after the Forest of Death."
"Cool, I'll see you later old man." Naruto said before he vanished in a swirl of black and silver streaked flames.
With Naruto & Anko
Midnight
Naruto and Anko silently walked through the Green Woods forest, heading to a bandit camp. It was a rather large camp, or maybe a small base, about the size of a small village, with around 350 bandits, plus the 110 guard dogs and an unaccounted number of prisoners. They were dressed in all black prepared to feed.
They walked through the front gate.
"ey! What the hell ya doin' here? Yer wanna sumethin'?" One of the guards asked
Naruto didn't say anything; instead he raised his hand and pointed at the gate
"Hey! I'm talkin' to - " Whatever the guard was going to say next was silenced by Naruto blurring into existence in front of him and taking out his heart while the others head fell from his shoulders. Naruto and Anko calmly walked inside after killing the two guards, and stood in the middle of the camp. Soon the other bandits walked out of their huts or wherever they were, and circle them.
"Who the hell are you two?" One of them asked
"What the hell ya want here?" asked another bandit, but he was silenced when Anko decapitated him
"We hold no obligation to answer your questions…!" Naruto started as he grabbed a knife that was thrown at him and threw back, while Anko stabbed another bandit that tried to slash him "Just know that every bandit in this camp will be bead by tonight!" He said, as he bisected another bandit who tried to cut his head, and added "Now Anko my dear lets have fun!" He shouted as he and Anko blurred from existence
Screams could be heard from miles as Naruto and Anko slaughtered every bandit in the camp while the prisoners were set free.
Day of Chunin Exams
Naruto was leaning against the Academy's entrance watching his teammates as they approached. After they did he didn't even bother speaking before he turned and entered the building and moved towards the stairs. A commotion on the second floor caught his attention and he turned to find who he knew as two Chunin, since they didn't bother to change faces with their henge's, knocking around Genin who were trying to get past them.
He listened with a smirk as they berated the Genin who kept trying to force pass them. As Sasuke moved to get ahead of him he acted before the boy could do something stupid grabbing a kunai and placing it in his mid back causing both his teammates to freeze.
"Now don't go trying to act all superior or you'll ruin the party. Its obvious those guys are weeding out the weaklings who can't even recognize the genjutsu so just keep your mouth shut and come on." whispered Naruto calmly still smirking before removing the kunai from his teammate and walking off to go around the spectacle and quietly moving up the stairs his teammates following behind glaring angrily at his back.
Five minutes later, having made a quick stop, they stood in front of the real room 301 having just finished a talk with Kakashi. As Kakashi moved aside Naruto sighed before kicking the double doors wide open making Kakashi sweat drop.
"Maybe the demon is still the same idiot after all, he'll probably get killed in the exams if I'm lucky" thought Kakashi
As they entered they found themselves on the receiving end of glares from a room packed full of Genin from what had to be every shinobi village.
"What all these people are taking the exam." thought Sakura in nervously as sweat dripped down her face.
"None of these losers can stand the might of the mighty Uchiha" thought Sasuke.
"Hurry and get this over with" thought Naruto bored
"Sasuke-kun! You're late!" exclaimed a loud voice before a blur hit team sevens resident emo. That blur turned out to be none other than Sakura's so called 'rival' and former best friend Ino Yamanaka .
"I haven't seen you in a while so I've been waiting in excitement." said Ino as she clung to the boy.
"So you guys are taking this stupid test too." said a male voice which turned out to be none other than Shikamaru Nara, one of the laziest people Naruto ever met. To the side of him devouring a bag of chips was his best friend Choji Akimichi .
"Yahoo! Found you." called yet another loud voice this one male.
Turning Naruto smirked as he saw team eights resident loudmouth Kiba Inuzuka , his dog sitting atop his head. Along with him approached both Hinata Hyuga and Shino Aburame .
"Well it looks like we're all here." said Kiba getting a sigh from Shikamaru.
"So where's Naruto-baka?" questioned Ino as she looked around. Only to gawk as she found a gorgeous blond sitting on the table by the windows.
"Oi who the hell are you." said Kiba loudly as his eyes narrowed onto the boy trying to look intimidating.
"Shut your mouth Kiba before snatch your tongue out" said Naruto in a lazy manner
"Kiba that's Naruto." Sakura whispered to her old classmates who looked at her shocked "We don't know what happened to him but he's been cold to everyone lately"
"No way THAT'S Naruto. He's gorgeous and tall." thought Ino in awe a blush taking over her face.
As the rookies were trying to find out on what caused Naruto's change said boy noticed a silver haired glasses wearing Genin headed for them. His wore a blue pants and a sleeveless blue shirt with a short sleeved white shirt beneath it. As he turned to face him he noticed he wore a Konoha hitae-tae though he cared little about that.
"Hey you guys, you should be more quiet." said the boy as he stopped close to the group.
"You guys are the rookies straight from the academy. I mean you'd have to be screaming like a bunch of school girl's gee this isn't a picnic." finished the boy with his left hand hovering over his kunai pouch.
"Who the hell do you think you are?" questioned Ino as she looked over the boy who'd interrupted her conversation.
"I'm Kabuto. Instead of that though you should look behind you." said the newly introduced Kabuto. As the rookies turned they found several Genin glaring in their direction.
"Those guys are from Ame and have short tempers. Everyone is nervous about the exam, quiet down before you cause a scene."
Naruto smirked slightly at his words as well as the feel of the weak killing intent the Ame-nin were projecting towards them. Since he was sitting away from the group none of them saw his eyes flash red as the boy leveled a concentrated amount of his own killing intent onto three.
Suddenly each of the Ame-nin seized up and broke into a sweat. In their minds each of them could see their deaths at the hands of the Uzumaki mostly by being impaled with a katana. Turning around each of them faced the front not wanting to piss the boy off any further.
"I guess I can't blame you guys for being clueless. You actually remind me of how I used to be." Stated Kabuto breaking the rookie Genins from their thoughts.
"So this is your second try, Kabuto-san?" asked Sakura getting a chuckle from the older nin.
"Nope, my seventh. You see the exams are held twice a year, this is my fourth year." stated Kabuto.
"Still because I've been around for a while I've learned quite a bit. How about I share some information with you cute rookies." said Kabuto finally getting Naruto's full attention as he pulled out a deck of cards.
"Guy smells of snakes and blood, and so does that Kusa nin over there. it seems I found the spy." Naruto thought looking at the Kusa nin across the room and Kabuto
"These are my nin info cards. There basically cards with info burned on them with chakra." explained Kabuto as he set the cards down. Following this he showed them a map of the elemental countries as well as info on which villages were participating.
"Do you have any cards with info on individuals?" asked Sasuke.
"Of course, though the info on all the participants isn't perfect. I even have some on you guys. Just tell me something about the guys you're interested in and I'll take a look." stated Kabuto with a smirk.
"Gaara no Sabaku of Suna and Neji Hyuga of Konoha." said Sasuke with his ever preset scowl remembering the Suna nin's name that he saw Naruto talking to.
"So you even know their names, then this should be easy." said Kabuto before he whipped out three cards after adding chakra to his hands.
"Ok first is Neji Hyuga . He's a year older than you guys and last year's rookie of the year. Mission record is 20 D-rank and 12 C-ranks. His Jonin sensei goes by the name of Gai. He is known as the Hyuga Clans prodigy and is even rumored to be the greatest genius in the last century. His teammates are Rock Lee and Tenten." stated Kabuto getting nods from those in the group who didn't know this already.
"Next is Gaara no Sabaku. Mission record shows 8 C-ranks and 1 B-rank. Since he's a foreigner there's not much I know about him. However he has apparently returned from every mission without so much as a scratch." finished Kabuto making several of the rookies nervous.
"Whatever the case you guys should know that most of those participating in the exams are their villages elites much like Neji and Gaara." said Kabuto quietly making several of the rookies even more nervous while naming the various villages participating.
"Not one of them our suspicious that he's got info that's suppose to be known to a Kage." Naruto thought
Before any other comments could be made the team from the newly formed Oto rushed the group and more precisely Kabuto. Seeing them coming Kabuto reacted just as one of them, face hidden beneath bandages with only one eye exposed, swung down with his right fist. Dodging the attack the silver haired nin stood up with a smirk only for it to die as he fell forward and spat a wad of blood from his mouth and his glasses cracked.
"Write this down on those damn cards of yours. The Genin of Hidden Sound will definitely become Chunin." said another Oto nin with spiky black hair smirking cockily.
Naruto's head snapped towards the front of the room just as a large puff of smoke covered it. When it cleared several nin stood in front of the room each wearing a Konoha hitae-tae. Each of them wore a pair of grey dress pants and a gray button down shirt. Of this group one individual stood out above the rest as he also wore a high collared open black trench coat and stood in front of the group.
"QUIET DOWN YOU MAGGOTS HIDDEN SOUND GUYS STOP DOING AS YOU PLEASE OR I'LL FAIL THE LOT OF YOU RIGHT NOW." shouted the man at the front a scowl covering his features.
"I apologize for that, it's our first time and we got a bit carried away." said the bandaged one getting a snort from the man.
"Now thank you all for waiting. I am Ibiki Morino, the first examiner for the Chunin Selection Exams first test." said the newly introduced proctor making some of the visiting nin gulp having heard of the man.
"Now before anything else I'll say this. During these exams there is to be no fighting without the permission of the examiner. Even if permission is granted killing your opponent will not be tolerated. Those that disobey me will find themselves failed immediately. Do I make myself clear." finished Ibiki getting smirks from some in the room.
Following this Ibiki announced that the first exam would be a paper test. As he moved to get his assigned seat he felt a eyes on him and turned just in time to catch a Kusa nin turn the opposite way narrowing his eyes he continued. Arriving at his seat he sighed in exasperation as he found Hinata sitting in the seat next to his own. Just as he sat down Ibiki started to speak failing any who hadn't managed to sit down in time along with their teams.
"Do not turn your test over and listen closely to what I'm about to say. There are many rules for the first test so I'll write them down for you while I explain. Questions however are not allowed so listen carefully."
"Firstly you guys will start off with ten points. This test has ten questions and each is worth one point, this test however uses a subtraction system. So basically if you answer all your questions correctly you keep all ten of your points. However if say you miss three questions you lose three points and get stuck with seven." He paused here for breath before continuing.
"This is where the second rule comes into play. The second rule is that this test is taken as a team. This means whether you pass or fail is determined by the combined points of your entire team. Each team will compete to see how many points they can hold onto from the combined team total of thirty." said Ibiki which caused Sakura to slam her head on her table.
"Wait a second; why is this a team test and I don't understand this whole initial point system either." exclaimed Sakura loudly catching Ibiki's attention.
"Shut the hell up you don't have the right to question me. There's a reason for this so sit down, shut up, and listen." snapped the examiner making the banshee recoil.
"Now here is the third and most important rule. Anyone caught doing sneaky activities such as sneaking will have two points subtracted from their score for every offence. That means that there will be some who will lose all their points during the exam and be asked to leave. Those pathetic enough to be caught cheating will be destroying themselves. As Shinobi trying to attain the level of Chunin be proud ninjas.
Also those who lose all their points during the test and those that don't answer any questions correctly will be failed along with both of their teammates."
As Ibiki finished saying this Naruto felt two death glares and a small amount of killing intent from behind causing him to turn. True to his suspicions he found both his so called teammates glaring at him heatedly. Narrowing his own cold amethyst eyes on theirs he focused a small concentrated dose of his killing intent onto them causing each of them to freeze in fear and swear they saw the transparent silhouette of a 10 tailed wolf hovering behind him.
Feeling he'd made his point he turned back around just in time to catch the last of Ibiki's rules before the test began. Turning the paper over and looking over it his eyebrow twitched at what he read. There was absolutely no way any Genin could answer this questions unless they were either a genius or such a big loser they'd spent their childhood memorizing library books. Behind him both Shikamaru and Sakura had to hold back sneezes.
Sitting back in his seat he took a deep breath and reflected back onto everything Ibiki had said. The only thing that stuck out however was the penalty for cheating. Usually when one cheated they were immediately failed yet here they were only being penalized two points instead of outright failure. It was almost as if they were encouraged to cheat. Plus with the level these questions were at the only way he could even think to answer them was to cheat.
"As Shinobi trying to attain the level of Chunin be proud ninjas." He blinked as Ibiki's words flew through his mind before he glanced to his left staring into the eyes of one of the Chunin who returned his stare.
"I see. They placed the Chunin around the room because they know these questions are too hard for a Genin to answer. With that however the only option is to cheat, yet you get penalized 2 points each time you're caught cheating until you fail. If that's the case that just means you have to cheat yet do it well enough that you don't get caught." thought the disguised Genin with a small smirk unknowingly catching Ibiki's attention.
Sitting back in his seat he closed his eyes as he tried to figure a way to get through this. It seemed that several others had also figured this out as all around him people were cheating. Unfortunately for some they weren't doing well enough as evidenced by the angry teams that were already being thrown out. A small quiet bark caught his attention and in his minds eye he could see Kiba sitting with his dog on his head which was telling him the answers with a series of barks and growls.
"No matter how strong I am I still hate written exams…sigh" Naruto thought as he focused on listening to the various pencil taps going around the room before he focused in on one of the disguised Chunin's in the room.
Forty five minutes into the test Ibiki called for a halt. After making sure everyone had placed their pencils down he announced it was time for the tenth question. Pausing and making sure everyone was paying attention he began to speak.
"The tenth question has a new rule. This rule is what I like to call a hopeless rule. I give you two choices you can quit now and take the exam the next time. On the other hand you can stay and take the tenth question. However anyone who stays and answers this question wrong will not only fail but never be allowed to take the Chunin Exams again." Finished Ibiki shocking the entire room though a few tried hard not to show it.
Within five minutes of Ibiki saying this five people had cracked and opted to leave failing along with their teams. Soon more teams began to drop like flies as more and more people quit. After about fifteen minutes of this Ibiki noticed that no one else was going to quit. In fact most of those left merely looked bored while just a few were a tad bit nervous. Before everyone seemed to calm down
"26 teams huh and three of them rookies." thought Ibiki with a smirk.
"Alright then since it's obvious no one else will quit everyone here…passes." said Ibiki much to the shock of the room's occupants.
What followed this proclamation was an explanation on this test purpose. This test was apparently designed to test the information gathering skills of the Genin as this was one of the many skills a Chunin level Shinobi needed. Those who failed this portion did so because they did not have the skill necessary to do this without being too obvious in their attempts.
The tenth question however was to determine who had the strength of will needed for the position. In the field there is no next time it's either do or die. Those who quit had essentially died as they'd buckled under the pressure. Those who had remained however had pushed forward to complete their mission. Though nervous he explained they'd done this with confidence in themselves and their teammates and had passed because of it.
Before he could speak anymore on the subject however the window was shattered as something flew through it. as it did a brown ball followed just behind it before it unraveled causing Naruto to smile.
"This is no time to celebrate. I'm the proctor for the second test of these exams, Anko Mitarashi ." said the purple haired woman with a smirk.
