Chapter 3: Teaching brats and Growing relationships
Two years had passed in Suna and by that time several things had changed the Namikaze compound had just been finished about a month ago and Naruto had moved in of course he wasn't alone, over his 2 years in Suna his relationship with Temari had blossomed and they had only gotten closer they had been dating now for 2 years and she had helped design most of the compound anyway and they felt the next logical step was to move in together they were both truly in love, but beyond that Gaara had become Kazekage about a year ago and Naruto had been happy teach and training when he started teaching it was the same day the new students arrived and Suna's academy being 2 years from 10-12 years of age Naruto got to teach one entire class up until graduation and today they had just completed their Genin exams and needless to say his entire class passed with flying colors and most if not all were far beyond Genin level already. Naruto took to teaching like a fish to water his bubbly happy personality and myriad of life experiences gave him a lot to pull from and though he was quit young he used that to his advantage being 17 at the time he wasn't to far removed from being an academy student he opted to take an entirely new approach to teaching breaking it up in marking periods but devoting the entire period to one thing and merely reviewing it quickly every so often in between that being said the first 6 months were simply Math,Science, and history of all the hidden villages the next 3 were purely review, chakra theory,physical conditioning, and strategy that was all they did for the entirety of year one. Year 2 was different entirely so for the first 3 months instead of cookie cutter academy styles he searched his library and the shinobi library in the village and found styles that fit his students personalities hed use his clones to learn the styles himself before having a clone teach each child individually beyond that they reviewed the year before and kept conditioning and working with shuriken and Kunai the next 3 months they continued to perfect what they already knew in the mornings and work on chakra control exclusively in the afternoon with Kunai balancing and Rock balancing exercises and eventually finishing with wall walking as trees weren't common in Suna and water walking in a lake that was made by the few Jounin that knew suiton Jutsu converting their very chakra into water for the Jutsu it was totally exhausting but it helped and now Naruto owed them a huge favor Naruto would even combine the control exercises. The next six months were where the fun began they worked on the academy 3 Jutsu as well as 5 or 6 other non elemental techniques Naruto knew such as the Transparent escape Jutsu and others good for spying most of which he himself just learned recently going through his parents notes and Uzu library for new things to teach the kids. Finally he finished the year by finding their affinities and helping them complete stage one manipulation and for those that finished quickly he'd give them each one Jutsu to work on and he would help those who were interested in weapons to learn Kenjutsu, Bojutsu or use of a Battle fan after hours at the academy. Needless to say they all passed with flying colors this being Naruto's first and only class through the academy he wanted to leave them with a a good speech "Okay class after today you're Genin I remember when I graduated the academy and my instructor told us about the will of fire which was a very abstract concept from Konoha one that I feel has been forgotten by a large group of the village you see the will of fire boiled down to Teamwork and protecting your comrades and your village your family your friends and all those precious to you, the reason the leaf has always been feared is their impeccable teamwork and camaraderie however I am living proof that it's falling into disarray they shunned me for completing my mission and kicked me out because they valued some shinobi over others, I'm here to say that's BS it's not what the past Hokages would've wanted and I'm here now to bring the true will of fire to Suna to make our village the greatest to ever walk the earth and you this class of 36 students you're my legacy and I hope the rebirth of the true will of fire, a man I respect very much once told me Shinobi who break the rules are scum but those who abandon their comrades are worse than scum, so when you leave here today and get put into your teams know that I am proud of you and know that I expect you all to show every village around that Suna protects our own let's show the world the true will of fire to never forget our comrades and to love one another and stand together to protect our village! The greatest village of them all Sunagakure No Sato!" With that speach assigned the teams him and Gaara discussed that morning knowing they'd all pass and left the last day of his teaching career feeling blessed to have taught such amazing kids and knowing they'd make him proud. After exiting the building he made his way towards the ANBU barracks for his initiation test which he knew for sure he'd pass as he had grown quite a bit in the last 2 years he had revealed his sharingan and how he got it to his new family perfecting his genjutsu with it and working to further refine his sub elements and explaining to the sand siblings that Kekkei genkai were more affinities than anything meaning they'd be stronger when using the techniques than you but anyone could recreate it after that he mastered his Lava release and Scorch release while Temari decided to develop Scorch release herself and did well with Naruto helping her Gaara by far came the farthest in being able to recreate Magnet Release and use both iron sand and gold dust not quite to his predecessors levels but definitely powerfully and he was taught Fuinjutsu by Naruto and now kept the iron sand and gold dust in seals on his arms. Naruto further perfected his fighting styles and maxed out the resistance seals as well as began copying his fellow shinobi's Jutsu to practice it now having well over 250 techniques and climbing needless to say this ANBU test was a mere formality at this point. He had also reached 7 tails of Kurama's chakra with full control and learned quite a few other tricks. After his test was over today he had a date with Temari for lunch and he was taking his entire class and their families to dinner to celebrate at the new and improved ichirakus which instead of a stand was now a full blown restaurant. Then he was going to drop Temari at home and stop by a jeweler to have a ring made to propose in the coming months.

Suna ANBU headquarters 3 hours later
The ANBU initiation test in Suna is 3 parts Part 1 infiltration the precious record time was 3 hours Naruto finished it in 1 he had to travel 25 miles into the dessert to an abandoned outpost that was used during the Waring states era that Suna had fixed up for the ANBU exam it consisted of a 3 story main compound with a basement level totaling 10,000 square feet with three layers of walls surround the complex with guard outposts for the test the prospective ANBU had to sneak past all 3 walls without being seen infiltrate the compound and eliminate the Target. Using the transparent escape Jutsu he snuck up to the guards at outpost one and locked eyes with them and they didn't even realize he used the sharingan and put them in a Genjutsu and they fell asleep. Coming up to the second outpost went much the same however this one had guards on the wall as well so he had to scale it and knock out the guard with a chop to the neck first before getting the main guards at the gate the last outpost went much like the last until the compound was In his sights 4 guards on the roof at all 4 corners 2 At front door 2 at back he knows the best course of action is go top down but how? He goes around the side still cloaked by his Jutsu and climbs up the wall he waits for guards to pass in their rotation and slowly places a seal on each of their feet as they walk by and whispers "Uzumaki sealing style: Paralysis seal Fuin!" All four guards freeze and start to fall when they're caught by sealless shadow clones Naruto made after this the clones go invisible as well two to the front two the back who take out the guard with poison senbon the real Naruto going in through the upstairs window he clears the entire place and takes out the target in minutes. The second test is survival an ANBA called Falcon summons a large bird that takes the prospect farther into the desert and drops them at which point they have to find their way back that took two hours and a lot of help from Kurama to stay upright with all the heat and no water since morning which was part of the test but now 3 hours later exhausted and dehydrated and in pain now is the real test Naruto vs The 3 ANBU captains the test is designed as a loss for the prospect they want to see how you do in the face of insurmountable odds where you're faced with Sure death what will you do. Little do they know Naruto doesn't plan on giving up or losing as Elephant, Falcon, and Dragon circle Naruto and wait for the start Naruto seems oddly calm and is simply breathing in and out calming breathes focusing breaths ready to strike.
"Begin!" The three ANBU attacked at once but before they could get there the room was filled with smoke from a smoke bomb the smoke cleared and the blonde was gone before they could react he was on them in a hurry from behind throwing a kunai at the back of Dragon's head instincts kicked in and Dragon turned to the left and dodge the two then began a furious Taijutsu match which the other two ANBU joined in on even 3 on one Naruto kept up but getting bored after 5 minutes "Look guys I'm tired let's end this" with that Naruto flashed behind the elephant masked ANBU pulled out his tri-pronged Kunai laced with wind chakra and cut his tendons on the back of his legs and he collapsed to the ground. The other two fighters recovered and rejoined the fight Naruto dodge a kick from Dragon and created a Rasengan in an instant and shoved it into Dragons hip after ducking under the kick it shattered and Dragon was out. Falcon was fast and he was keeping up or so he thought until Naruto jumped back flashed through hand seals "Fire release: Grand Fireball Jutsu" Falcon blocked it with an earth wall but with the distraction Naruto flashed through more seals "Lava release: Lava Rain" he shot a massive ball of molten rock in the air that exploded and rained down on the battlefield Falcon created a dome of wind to protect himself but then Naruto shot out from the ground beneath him with an uppercut and the fight was over. "Well Namikaze I think it's safe to say welcome to ANBU Kitsune" with that he handed Naruto a Kitsune ANBU mask and they left to celebrate.
Naruto took Temari for BBQ to celebrate the win the two ate and talked for a while "So Mari-chan Gaara says you have a mission tomorrow when will you be back?" "Yeah I'm going to Mizu no Kuni to help finish the Civil War and hopefully start and alliance even with you and Gaara we are still one of the weakest of the great nations and we need Allies we figure if we help the bloodline users we can help them win and get allies in the process, that said it'll probably take 3-6 months maybe more" she said sadly "Well then I guess we better enjoy ourselves today then" Naruto countered in a suggestive tone. "Nuh uh mister you have students to take out to dinner and some muster errand to run tonight by the time You get back I'll be asleep and I have to leave first thing in the morning however if your good while I'm away and the house and village is still standing when I get back you can have it all you want." She said to the pouty blonde "aww Mari-chan that's no fun we could always go to the bathroom and do it right here right now" he said hopefully " No Naruto we can't we have things to do" she said with a little anger in her voice at him not taking the hint "Fine Temari let's head home and get ready for the party.
2 hours after that dinner time at Ichiraku's Ramen Bar we see the entire dining room packed with students and their families and a certain blonde instructor with 30 or more bowls of ramen in front of him. "You know Namikaze-san it's a shame you won't consider teaching full time Renji's brother starts next year and after the success you had with Renji I'd love to get the same kind of help for his brother" one of the parents said. "Don't worry Meibachi-san if your other son ever needs help and I am free I'd be more than happy to but I think I'm ready to move on to ANBU and hopefully Jounin in a few years and eventually be a Jounin sensei" the proud father nodded his head and they continued the night. "Cheers to the best class of graduating Genin the world has ever seen I wish you guys and gals all the best of luck remember trust eachother trust your sensei and look out for eachother and you'll come out on top" at that statement they all split up for the night. And Naruto dropped Temari at home kissed her though it was still kind of icy and headed to the store and ordered the ring it was really special to him as he designed it the metal was white gold with two traditional Japanese dragons wrapping around eachother and meeting at the stone that was in their mouth inside the stone was a laser etching of his Hiraishin seal so he could always be there whenever she needed it and engraved on the wring was "For my Mari-hime I'm yours forever and always" he was sad it would take 3 months to complete as she in all likelihood wouldn't be back by then but he hoped she loved it.
That's that chapter 3 it was definitely shorter than the others but I'm building up to the good parts.
