A stray beam of sun manages to make its way thru the blinds and hit the possible ninja to be in the face. With the deep breath all people take when waking up he stands out of bed. Today is the day he's been waiting for. All he had to do was pass this test and he'd be a ninja well on his way to leaving or destroying this village. Tired of wasting time the dread headed academy student headed into the bathroom to do the normal morning rituals and prepare for his hopefully big day.
Coming out of the bathroom in just a towel the daily outfit selection began.
"My ninja outfit is almost exactly the same as the ANBU, except my gauntlets have a spring action hidden blade." Jay thinks aloud "How else can I improve over standard ANBU gear? Let's see close toed combat boots steel in soles, heel, and toes and somehow still ridiculously comfy. And finally the piece de resistance" Jay said as he grabbed a cloak, the only thing separating him from real ANBU was his lack of a sword and a mask.
Steeping out of the small apartment the preteen is greeted with the Konoha's signature weather of 80 degrees and a calm breeze. Deciding against dealing with other people's bull shit the village's most hated person takes to the roofs and make it to the school in less than 10 minutes. Looking at the clock its 7:30 am class doesn't start for another 2 hours. Taking a seat in the top row far right against the wall the kid quickly joins the land of dreams.
"Jay" A male voice he recognized called
"Yea, Shika" Jay responded not opening my eyes
"You got the cards?" The Nara asked as he takes a seat 2 away from me
"Of course I'm always ready to take your money" Jay said flashing a smile
The two had been natural friends since they met. Shikamaru's lazy nature meshed well with the jinchūriki's apathetic nature
"Konoha Hold'em?" Shikamaru says shuffling the cards
"Only if you're ready to lose" Jay said as he place a stack of money on the table. Shikamaru follows suit by putting a stack of ones on the table.
"Funny. Jay I've been meaning to ask you what's up with the ANBU Jr outfit?" Shika asked as he dealt the cards
"What can I say the tank top is breathable, the cloak is sexy and the pants make my ass look amazing" Jay replied
"How did you get it though? ANBU clothes can't be anywhere near cheap" Shika said as he thought about the time his dad had to replace his jonin jacket because of a deer accident.
"I don't know Shika how an orphan with barely enough money to eat would afford high grade ninja gear." Jay said sarcasm virtually dripping from his words
"Barely enough my ass" Shikamaru replied "How much is in that stack the last time it was three grand" Shika said referencing the last time they played cards
"4.6" Jay replied
"How?" Shika said as he looked at his stack of 34 ones saved up from winning shogi and go games
"I'm going to be honest with you. There is a whole another part of this village you don't see. I'm talking about the underground, the black market, shit like that." Jay responded "You could take that baby stack you got and have this much in a week if you flip everything right."
"But isn't all that stuff illegal?" Shika was no idiot in fact he was the complete opposite but he only knew what he had been exposed to.
"That's why there is such a large profit margin" Jay said as he pulled out a small plastic bag "You know what this is?"
"Looks like the rocks u put in a fish tank" Shikamaru said after briefly analyzing the green rocks
"Well you are kinda right." Jay said as he placed the bag back in his pocket "Its street name is Konoha Krank. This shit is deadly as hell when not in its pure form and this isn't the pure form."
"What's the pure form then?" Shika asked
"A dark green powder that comes from a plant that grows in the forest outside the walls. Before it was made illegal the powder use to be used by ninja on missions where they had to stay awake for long periods of time." Jay explained
"Why was it made illegal?" Shika asked having heard some of his dad's friends referencing the powder when he was younger
"Because it may give you a boost of energy but there is also a chance it causes your heart to rupture" Jay replied "You'd be winning the fight then drop dead."
"Wait how do you go from powder to rock?" Shikamaru asked generally interested at this subject he had a very limited knowledge of
"Baking soda." Jay replied
"The white powder used in cakes and for shoes?" Shikamaru asked/stated
"Yep" Jay replied
"Ok you had me going there for a second" Shikamaru said glad he didn't completely fall for it
"Oh no it's true. You added both powders in a pot of warm water and stir; it all goes to the bottom as a large ass light green rock. Then you pour the water off take the still hot big ass rock and hit it with cold water and it breaks into these small pieces." Jay explained "The thing I don't understand is how the hell it turns into a completely different drug when you do that"
"So just adding baking soda changes from an energy boost to a what?" Shika asked with a raised eyebrow
"Man this shit turns you into a super ninja" Jay explained "The reason this is illegal is because it makes you stronger, faster, and you don't feel pain. Then the icing on top it increases your chakra. We not talking about a little bit either this shit can let a civilian take on a chunin. The three reasons this shit is illegal or at least the three reasons why I think it is because its highly addictive, it cuts your chakra reserves with repeated use, and the fact that if enough people use it, it could pose a major security threat. I'm just glad its high is so great it makes it hard for multiple uses to team up"
"So what's the price?" Shikamaru asked with a raised eyebrow
"Well whatever the current price of baking soda is plus 20k ryo for a 2 pound brick of powder."
"How the hell is this profitable then?" Shikamaru asked having flash backs of when his mom tried to teach him the basics of how a business works
"Oh this little bag might have a gram of the total powder in here and it goes for like 50 ryo. So I sell 2lbs worth and I'm making about 20,000 profits." Jay said doing some quick math in his head
"That explains how you can afford it still doesn't explain how a non-ninja and a kid got the gear you have." Shikamaru replied
"That's easy you send a whore in pretending to be some ninja's girlfriend looking for a birthday gift and then she buys it or you pay her to steal it either way she gets something though the cut is much bigger if she steals it" Jay explained "Straight flush" Jay said as he flipped his cards over revealing the king and jack of spades
"What a drag" Shikamaru said as he handed the dread headed jinchūriki a dollar
10 games later
"Ok I think I'm done" Shikamaru says looking at his stack which was now an inch shorter
"Well it was a joy taking your money" Jay said as I start counting my new money
"Yea yea" Shikamaru says getting in his standard nap position.
"Hey Jay, Shikamaru" A female voice interrupts my money counting
"Hey Ino" Jay replied while glancing up at the sexy blonde
"Sup" Shikamaru greets the blonde
"Let me get some money" Ino said staring at my money
Jay and Ino had become friends from both being friends with Shikamaru. Jay had to admit he was glad he was her friend it's not every day you get a natural ice breaker with the 2nd most attractive girl in class. Registering what the blonde had just said an idea popped into the drug dealing youth's head.
"Let's play cards for it." Jay offered with his well-known fox like grin
"But my money is at home" Ino says
"Fine, I'll bet money you can bet … your clothes" I say putting my plan into action
"No why would I do that." Ino rejects the idea "Perv"
"Really?" Jay replied with a raised eyebrow as he put the stack of ones away and pulled out the 100's
"Let's play" Ino says quickly sitting in the seat between him and Shikamaru
"The name of the game is Konoha Hold 'em…" Jay said as he shuffled the cards
Not being a complete bad guy Jay let Ino win a few games. Out of the 7 games we had played I allowed Ino to win 2 games. All she had to bet was her panties.
"Last game" Jay said looking at my hand
"Do I really have to take my clothes off" Ino said now regretting her decision to play the game
"Yea or I take my money back" Jay said as he dealt himself two cards. "I'll make you a deal though."
"What's the deal?" Ino asked with a caution in her voice
"If I win this hand I get see your pussy, if you win you get 5000 ryo." Jay offer counting out the ryo
"Sure" Ino says obviously confident in her hand
"Ok drop" Jay said with a smirk
Ino is the first to drop. Her hand is filled with a straight flush the 5 of hearts to the 9 of hearts
"Beat that" Ino said with a wide grin
"Ok" Jay said as he laid his cards down
The look on Ino's face could only be described as a look of shock, horror, and disbelief molded into one. Jay had the 10 and jack of hearts beating her with the higher flush
"How, that's impossible" Ino said tears forming in her eyes
"I thought he was cheating at first but i had Hinata watch one game and said nothing is out of place not even a spike of chakra" Shikamaru recalled coming to terms with his friends unnatural luck
"High flush, 5 all the way to the jack man what are the odds. Lady Luck you are truly a kind mistress" Jay said giving thanks to the lady who constantly helps me. "Alright let me see it"
"But there are people here…" Ino said referring to the other clan heirs that had come in during their games
"Just face me and hike your skirt up then slide your panties to the side so I can see. No one is behind me and the walls have ears but not eyes" Jay said putting the stack of money away
Turning towards me, she hikes up her purple skirt to reveal a lavender thong.
"See it's not that hard, now just slide your panties to the side" Jay say waiting like a kid for Christmas
Slowly the blonde reaches for her panties. Sliding the purple fabric to the side revealed her rose pink pussy which looked similar to a flower. Just then an aroma hit the nose of the jinchūriki, it smelled faintly sweet.
"There" Ino said closing her legs
"Wow you have a really nice pussy" I say smiling "and thank you" Jay said as he handed her 2500 ryo
"You're welcome" Ino says blushing brightly "What's this for?"
"Keeping your word" Jay said with a smile that hit the blonde hard in the chest.
"Alright quiet everyone" Iruka shouted "Today you all have a chance to become the next generation of ninja…" Iruka started
"Basically you all are going to take a 3 part exam. The first part is a basic ninja info test, the 2nd part is ninjutsu/genjutsu and the 3rd part will be taijutsu." Iruka finished "Now take a test a pass it down your row"
The written exam was by far the easiest of the exams; they had been drilling the info into the academy students heads since they were little.
"All pencils down. Next we will begin the ninjutsu stage. We are going alphabetically so Mr. Aburame you're first. Shino got out of his seat then walked to the back room, closing the door as he entered. After 5 minutes Shino emerges from the room followed by Iruka.
"Alright Jay it's your turn" Iruka said looking at his sheet then at the boy. Doing just like Shino the boy proceeded into the small room. Inside was just a room with no chairs or nothing just walls and the normal wall paper.
"Kai" the hopeful ninja pulsed his chakra causing a wave of blue to coat the room revealing Mizuki
"How did you know" The once hidden Mizuki asked
"I smelled you on Iruka when I was walking into the room" Jay say as he notice a coin in Mizuki's hand
"Heads or tails?" Mizuki asked as he tossed the coin up
"Tails"
Iruka caught the coin midair and flipped it on the back of his opposite hand.
"It's heads, which means you have to a clone jutsu." Iruka said looking at the coin
"Well I can't do that. My chakra won't let me do it." I inform the teachers.
"Then I'm going to have to give you a zero" Mizuki says
"Fine by me. But your judging a fish on its ability to climb a tree" Jay said as he turned around and exited the room.
"How did you do?" Ino asked as Jay got back to his seat.
"Failed it" Jay replied
"Oh" Ino said quietly.
With his head comfortably placed against the wall sleep soon claims him until he is awoken by Ino to inform him about the taijutsu part of the test starting.
"Ok everyone, for the taijutsu portion of your exam you must incapacitate or knock out your opponent. Don't worry you will be stopped by us if things get too out of hand." Mizuki informed us. "Now we will randomly select names out of a hat for your opponent. First is Shikamaru Nara Vs Lee Zu"
Shikamaru easily handled the civilian child. The fights continued with all of the future clan heads that fought winning. There were only 2 people left and jay couldn't help but smirk when he realized who his opponent was going to be
"Jay Black vs Sasuke Uchiha" Mizuki shouted
"Ohh this is gonna be good" Jay said as he stretched his neck
Both students stood inside the ring and waited for the match to start.
"Hajime" Iruka shouted
Sasuke was the first to react, charging at the dreaded academy student aiming a punch at his head. Leaning his head to the right, the punch missed its target entirely.
"Come on Sasuke that the best you got" Jay said smirking at the Uchiha
This makes the possible future clan head angry as he comes now with 3 punches aimed at the head/chest which were easily parried. Deciding to go on the offensive Jay cocked his hand back and aimed for his the brooding face. Sasuke manages to get his arms in an X to block the punch, however when the fist made contact with his forearm it forced his arms back into his head. Sasuke stumbled back, stunned from the indirect hit to the head. Seeing his chance Jay decided to end the fight. He launched an uppercut at the Uchiha that connected with his gut sending him flying 3 feet into the air. Jumping up to three feet above the flying prick and clasping his hands together over his head Jay send the club crashing into the Uchiha's skull. Sasuke hits the ground with the sound of bricks hitting a floor.
"SASUKE" His fan club girls shout as their crush lay on the ground
"Call it, he is done." Jay said as he begin to walk away.
"Get back here dope" could be heard as Jay was not quite out of the sparring circle.
Turning around Jay is surprised to see Sasuke struggling to stand and breathing hard. Not liking what he was seeing Jay charge at the Uchiha again aiming quick jabs at his face. Still not completely cognitive the Uchiha doesn't dodge the punches and takes each one in the face. Looking at his target he see his eyes both flash red.
'Oh hell no he is not about to Sharingan my ass' Jay thought to himself
"Kill him" Some powerfully dark voice commanded
Not wanting to face a Sharingan user Jay deliver his finishing blow, in the shape of a strong right hand in the temple that launches Sasuke back 5 feet. He lands with a softer thud than before, clearly unconscious
"Winner Jay Black." Iruka shouts
"You go get the nurse and everybody else lets go back in so we can tally the scores and team everyone up." Mizuki says pointing at some civilian kid.
"Man, that kid might be stronger than you and I" Iruka said mentally reviewing the fight.
"He was holding back." Mizuki looking at the unconscious Sasuke "If he really wanted to he could have easily ended him" Mizuki trailed off
"Guess this means we should hit the gym more" Iruka said with a chuckle
Back inside after every one is healed up
"Alright everyone. We will calculate your grades and post them outside at 1pm" Iruka informed the class "Until then consider this your lunch break"
"Shikamaru where are you going for lunch?" the blonde asked the lazy genius
"I was just going to go to the roof and cloud gaze" Shikamaru said wishing he didn't have to get up and walk to the roof.
"Really Shika" Ino said as she just shook her head
"How about this. I give you money and you go and get food for me, Shika, and yourself. No Choji I'm not buying food for you I've seen what your mom has to pack you for lunch." Jay offered "That way everyone gets what they want"
"I don't" Choji said sadness evident in his voice
"Alright here" Jay said as he handed the girl 100 ryo. That's 30 each of us and 10 for Snack for Choji" Jay explained
"Ok. So what am I getting everyone?" Ino asked
"Grilled mackerel wrapped in kelp" Shikamaru replied
"Go to Ichiraku's and tell them you're picking up for Jay" Jay replied
"Lots of barbecue chips." Choji replied
"And how am I supposed to carry all this?" Ino asked
"They have take out scrolls just ask for one" Jay replied "We will be on the roof" Jay said as he got up and was followed by Choji and Shikamaru
Ino arrived on the roof to see Choji munching on chips and Jay and Shikamaru locked in a go battle.
"Here's everyone's food" Ino said as she passed out the respective scrolls.
"Thanks" the three say in unison
"What did you get yourself?" Jay asked as he pondered his next 10 moves
"A wildflower salad" Ino said as he undid the seal on her scroll and out popped the leafy dish
"Never been one for vegetables" Jay said as his seal was undone and out popped 20 bowls of ramen
"But you wouldn't buy me lunch" Choji said jealousy in his voice
"Hey this is lunch and dinner" Jay said as he started on the beef ramen
"So who is winning?" Ino asked
"Shikamaru is its 2-0-1" Choji informed the blonde
The groups of friends continue to sit and chat over their food before the bell signaling the end of lunch
"What a drag I was going to win" Shikamaru said as he stood up
"Well you guys have fun I'll be around" Jay said as he sealed the remainder of his food up.
"You aren't coming?" Ino asked
"No point. I didn't pass any way" Jay said as put the scroll away. "See ya" Jay said as he jumped onto a neighboring roof
"There you are" Mizuki said as he walked up the the jinchuriki
"You were looking for me?" Jay said as he looked out over the village
"Yea I wanted to tell you there is another way you can graduate" Mizuki said as he sat down by the kid
"Ok I'm listening" Jay replied
"You just need to find a scroll..." Mizuki began
Jay waited until 3am to make his move. Exiting his apartment Jay looks around before taking to the roofs. After a short 10 minute roof hopping the tree jumping Jay arrived in the forest by the shed as Mizuki had instructed. Looking around and smelling the air jay makes his move once he knows he is alone. Jumping from the trees jay casually walked up to the shack and entered it. Looking around the only thing jay sees is a large scroll. Taking the scroll out into the moon light jay opens it and began reading.
"Let's see... Night Guy? No that's just a taijutsu move. Why the hell is it forbidden? Oh it needs another forbidden jutsu to work. Reverse lotus? Nope another taijutsu move. Summoning Impure Resurrection? Well I don't have any ones DNA so that won't work. Twin Snakes Mutual death? No this one is fucking stupid what's the point if it kills me too. Two more useless taijutsu moves. Mutually Multiplying explosive tags? Hmm that's only good with that Summoning jutsu. Reaper Death Release? Might keep that one in mind I just need to find the mask that goes with it. Eight Gates Release Formation? Ah so here are the 8 gates I needed for all those other moves. The hell I'm not doing a move that kills me at the end. More taijutsus. Shadow clone Jutsu? Makes actual solid clones by splitting the chakra evenly between the clone and user. I'm definitely using this one" Jay said as he read up on how to do it
"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Jay shouted as 9 other him appeared "So my control for small things sucks but for big things its ok. Now let's see what else I can learn. Creation Rebirth? Better healing for a shorter life. I don't know if that's worth it. Dead Demon Consuming Seal? Used to seal tailed beast and people within the Shinigami. Why would you need that when guys like the forth could just defeat them. Wait the only way to defeat a tailed beast is to seal it and it must be sealed in an object for the weaker ones only a newborn for the stronger ones. Wait does that mean that the 4th didn't actually defeat the 9 tails." Jay said it finally all clicked in his head."
His birthday and the attack the same day. Why the mobs that attacked him when he was younger called him demon brat. Why basically every store either refused to serve him or hike their prices up when he came in.
"So you finally realize it" A deep feral voice said
"Who said that?" Jay said aloud looking around
"In here" the voice said
The next thing Jay new he went from the forest to what he would describe as a rundown apartment building with a colossal cage in the middle dwarfing the buildings beside it. Behind the thick bars was a gigantic orange fox easily the size of the residential area of the village if not bigger. . Nine tails failing all behind it hitting the inside of the cage.
"Welcome" the fox said as it cracked a smile seemingly showing every one of its hauntingly white teeth
Looking directly into the red orbs that made up the beast eyes the child couldn't help but feel fear.
"No relax calm down." Jay said forcing his fear away.
"Impressive. Well I can't say its impressive you were impressive when 4 year old you did that, now it's just you being you" The fox said
"So you're the 9 tails? I don't know why I thought you would be bigger or maybe more red?" Jay said as he grabbed his chin and pondered the fox's appearance "Ok the arms are weird as fuck"
"My arms?" the fox asked as it looked at its hands
"You're a fox with human/monkey arm hands" Jay said looking at the weird appendages "Wait why am I here?"
"Just wanted to make my presents known" the fox said with a grin that sent shivers down his spine
Jay's view went from the rundown apartment complex that was his mind back to the forest.
"Whoa" Jay said as he realized where he was now "Man this is a lot to take in. I'll get back to learning some of these jutsus I'll deal with this later."
"I am not a this" The fox retorted
'Yea, yea whatever' Jay replied
"Jay!" Iruka shouted as he finaly found his student
"Sup Iruka" Jay said as he wiped the sweat from his brow
"Don't you sup me you are in so much trouble! Half thee village is looking for you the other half is sharpening their kunai." Iruka shouted
"Really and it took you all this long to find me and the fuck why? Mizuki told me this was a secret way to become a genin" Jay explained
"Mizuki told you?" Iruka said trying to process the information
"Look out" Jay shouted as he quickly closed the gap 10 yard and pushed his teacher out of the way of the multiple kunai and shuriken.
"I'm surprised the demon brat closed the gap" Mizuki said as he landed on a nearby tree branch.
"Mizuki watch your mouth" Iruka shouted at the other chunin
"Why Iruka? Don't want the beast to finish off the Umino line?" Mizuki said with a chuckle
"You bastard!" Iruka shouted anger in his voice
"Jay give me the scroll" Mizuki told the kid
"Wait why the hell do you need this. I can't do half these jutsu so I know you can't do many more." Jay replied
"Just give me the scroll Kyuubi brat" Mizuki said anger evident in his voice
"You just broke the thirds law" Iruka shouted at the other nin
"Oh woe is me. Listen up brat you're the Kyuubi. The forth couldn't beat the beast so he sealed him into you"
"I know. I've met the fox." Jay nonchalantly replied
"What?" Iruka and Mizuki both said at the same time
Mizuki was the first to recover
"Looks like I'm going to have to kill you before it get out of hand" Mizuki said as he grabbed the large shuriken on his back and launched the large object at the non-ninja
The object seemed to go slow motion towards the child outcast
'The fuck why is this happening' Jay thought a noticed everything slow down
"Interesting" the fox said
With the giant shuriken coming at him, Jay easily put his arm in the hole of the spinning shuriken.
"How did you do that?" Iruka asked?
"No matter I can handle a brat and you Iruka" Mizuki said as he jumped down from the tree
"Nah your gonna fight me" Jay said with a grin "Shadow Clone Jutsu." Jay said as he did the cross hand sign and four him appeared
When the fog of battle cleared Mizuki lay on the ground bloody, bruised, and unconscious.
"Gotta say I'm disappointed. I was expecting a much tougher fight" Jay said as he dusted his pants off
"Did he even hit you?" Iruka asked
"Nah he hit 2 of my clones though" Jay said as he dispelled the other 2 "Whoa that's weird"
"What? I should have known a forbidden jutsu would have some crazy side effect" Iruka said worried about his student
"It's nothing bad but apparently these clones can transfer what they experienced back to the user. I literally just got 4 other views of beating Mizuki" Jay said as he cycled thru the memories
"Congratz Jay" Iruka said as he sits down to absorb what all had happened
"No need for congratulations I just wanted to see how I fared against a chunin. Hell I'd say I'm at least a 1/4 of the way to jonin if Mizuki is even average." Jay said as he looked at the unconscious chunin
"Close your eyes." Iruka order
"Ok" Jay said as he blinded himself. With his sense of sight gone his hearing seem to pick up allowing him to hear his teachers footsteps get closer to him. Then he felt a foreign object grace his forehead.
"You passed" Iruka said with a smile
"What how?" Jay said believing this to be some trick "So Mizuki was right?"
"No" Iruka said with a laugh "I thought about what you said when you left the room after the clone test. Your chakra control won't allow you to do a jutsu like a regular clone and since we only cover the concept of chakra control I can't fault you for not being able to make a clone. mot jonin dont teach true chakra control til about half way in. But then you had to go and learn a forbidden jutsu."
"Didn't think there was a real extra credit" Jay said as he noticed the sun was now coming up.
"There isn't, most ninja promotion actually occur on the battle field post battle. You didn't really think we just use test to promote people do you? Then again you would know that if you actually read your textbook" Iruka explained
"Yea yea, the textbook will save your life and all that. Now how about we go get some ramen. My treat." Jay offered
"Where did you get that kind of money?" Iruka asked
"A ninja never reveals his secrets" Jay said with a chuckle as he jumped into the trees "Shadow Clone Jutsu." Jay said as he made 5 clones to watch the traitor chunin until the proper people arrive
