Naruto- Kyuubi speech
Naruto- Kyuubi thoughts
Today Naruto was walking to his team's meeting place, but rather slowly because all night he had trained in his mindscape learning the kitsuneken and Uzuken until he the katas for them like the back of his hand and now he had mastered both styles thanks to his use of the Kagebunshin.
'Kami Kyuubi sure can be a slave driver, I mean I'm grateful to him for training me, but dear kami I feel like shit' Naruto thought. Naruto looked at the sky, watching the clouds pass by. Naruto seemed to feel more relaxed as he looked at the puffy white forms of condensated water.
"Now I know why Shikamaru likes watching clouds so much" he said with a smile and then arrived at the training grounds.
"Ohahyo, Sasuke-teme…Haruno-ama/whore" Naruto growled, his eyes flashed red. Sakura glared at the blonde and was about to rant about why he shouldn't call her one when POOF!!! (HOORAY 4 POOFS!!!)
"Hey there, anyways I was late today because I signed you all up for the chunin exams" Kakashi said. Sakura was about to yell liar, until she had registered what Kakashi just told them.
"Shannaro, now I can show Sasuke-kun, how strong I am" Sakura whispered to her inner self. Kakshi then handed then the registration cards.
"Now then, intense training starting now to prepare you for your exams, they start next week Friday so get ready to go home feeling like shit" Kakashi said with a smile. Naruto looked up at the sky.
'Why, kami-sama, two of them are slave drivers, why kami, WHY?!?!' Naruto thought as he cried.
"Okay Naruto and Sasuke, you guys seem to have a knack for offense, so I'll teach you the most powerful jutsus I know in my arsenal. Naruto watch this is Fuuton: Fuuryuendaan no Jutsu, Katon: Karyuheki no Jutsu/ Fire Style Fire Wall Jutsu, Suiton: Suiryudan no Jutsu, and Doton: Do sokonawareta no Jutsu/ Earth Style: Earth Shatter Jutsu, I will now demonstrate them to you" Kakashi said.
"Fuuton: Fuuryuendaan no Jutsu" Kakshi yelled and then a huge dragon of wind blew out of his mouth slicing anything near to shreds before it gave a roar and came into contact with a tree shredding it to tooth picks and disappearing in a swirl of wind with a final roar.
"Sugoi" Naruto said. Sasuke glared at Naruto, 'Those jutsus should be mine; I need more power if I want to defeat…him' Sasuke thought. Kakshi then demonstrated the rest of the jutsus and Naruto ran off to practice them.
"Ok Sasuke, I don't know much lightning jutsus and I know you can learn some more fire jutsus at home, so I'll teach what I know" Kakashi said and then formed some handsigns.
"Katon: Karyuendaan no Jutsu" Kakshi yelled and then the fire dragon rocketed forward and exploded into flames as it blew up a rock. Sasuke smiled, this would prove useful.
"Raiton: Raikurai no Jutsu" Kakshi yelled and then a powerful thunderbolt blasted from his finger tips ad Sasuke's smile grew wider and wider as Kakashi showed him jutsu after jutsu. He will finally have enough power to kill Itachi.
"Sakura, let's go, Sasuke learn those jutsus I showed you" Kakshi commanded. The Uchiha nodded and then went off to train.
With Naruto
Naruto was sitting in a clearing in the forest near the training ground he had quickly mastered the wind dragon technique, which found to be surprisingly easy then proceeded to begin practicing the fire wall. Naruto formed handsigns and then spun.
"Katon: Karyuheki no Jutsu" he shouted and then a spinning wall of fire surrounded Naruto before it dissipated in a matter of 10 seconds.
"Finally I got it down, and only after my 10th try" Naruto said proudly he then proceeded to learn the Do sokonawareta. He then formed the handsigns and slammed his palm on the ground.
"Doton: Do Sokonwareta no Jutsu" Naruto yelled. Then he waited a while to see if anything happened, Naruto growled in anger as he observed that no damage had occurred and then went to leave, but then he felt a rumbling underneath his feet. He turned back and saw the entire earth in front of him crack open and formed a huge chasm. Naruto's mouth was agape and then looked down the chasm, it was at least 30 ft. deep and 5 ft, wide.
"SUGOI!!!!" he shouted and then did a little victory dance. Then Naruto stopped dancing and heard A rustling in the bushed behind him. Naruto took out his kunai to get ready for battle, the bushes spread and revealed glowing red eyes and then what stepped out was so hideous, so ugly, so terrifyingly disgusting that Naruto had to resist the urge to empty his stomach, it was a ….Uchiha Sasuke.
Naruto gave a sigh of relief. "Oh Sasuke, it's just you, I thought it was something else" Naruto said. Sasuke's four tomoed Sharingan, 2 in each eye, began to spin. Naruto took a step back as he looked at Sasuke.
"Uh Sasuke, you all right and why is Sharingan spinning like that?" Naruto asked nervously. Sasuke surveyed the damage.
"Did you do this?" Sasuke asked the blonde jinchuriki. Naruto looked at Sasuke oddly.
"Yeah, why?" Naruto replied. Sasuke then looked up at Naruto with an evil smile.
"I want to fight you" Sasuke said. Naruto stepped back again.
"I'm sorry, what did you say, the great Uchiha thinks he can't beat a dobe and had to tests his abilities against him?" Naruto said in a mocking tone. Sasuke gritted his teeth.
"Of course not, demo you said you were masking everything, feelings, attitude so you might have been masking your skills, so I want to see your true power" Sasuke said. Naruto smirked and then his eyes flashed red for a split second.
"All right then Uchiha-teme, demo let's do this in front of Sakura and Kakashi-sensei, I want to show them your face when I end up kicking your ass" Naruto said confidently.
"You sound confident, well fine let's go" Sasuke said, then the Uzumaki and Uchiha walked back to training field. A few minutes later they arrived at the training field and then their eyes widened when they saw the field was covered in craters. Then they heard a yell, followed by a chakra spike and then a loud boom. The two genin quickly ran to the source of those occurrences. There they stood and saw Sakura holding up a sword of earth, she then threw the sword of stone and it sliced through a couple of trees and a boom followed after as it crashed to the ground. She then turned around.
"Hey Sasuke-kun, what do you think of my Doton jutsu, it's called ummm" Sakura thought, "what's it called again?" she asked Kakshi. Kakshi sighed at how idiotic this pink haired bitch was.
"For the last time Sakura, the jutsu is called, Doton: Ken no Do/ Earth Style: Sword of Earth" Kakshi said. Sakura nodded and then turned back to Sasuke.
"Well what did you think?" she asked her crush. Sasuke looked at the destruction and then nodded in acceptance and then muttered his favourite word, that is, if it is a word.
"Hn" he muttered. Sakura squealed in excitement before she jumped around shouting how Sasuke loved her and all that shit. The three boys shook their heads in disappointment, then Naruto head shot up.
"Oh right, Kakshi sensei, can you watch the fight between me and Sasuke, I want to show you how I kick his ass" Naruto said. Kakashi nodded and then sat against a tree.
"Yeah right, Naruto-baka, you could never defeat Sasuke, he's an Uchiha, he's the strongest ever" Sakura yelled. Naruto growled at the pink haired banshee.
"Sakura, look, do everyone here a favour and shut your mother fucking mouth, honestly you are so annoying some time, no not sometimes, all the time now go away so I can beat this teme" Naruto shouted in anger. Kakashi and the others were surprised at Naruto's outburst, they had never seen him become so angry, so much hate was shown in those cerulean blue orbs of his when he looked at Sakura, that hate only increased when he looked at Sasuke.
"Let's fight now teme" Naruto growled. Sasuke glared and then got into the Uchiha fighting stance. Naruto got into the stance of the Uzuken, which consisted of his left arm starched out in front of him, his hand out stretched and his right arm placed at his waist, his legs shoulder width apart.
"Come, little Uchiha" Naruto taunted, Sasuke then rushed Naruto and jumped to deliver an axe kick, but Naruto held up his arms and blocked it and then grabbed Sasuke's leg and then swung him into the ground. Sasuke got up and then fired a punch aimed for Naruto's gut, but Naruto back flipped to avoid it. Sasuke then formed handsigns.
"Katon: Goukakyu no Jutsu" Sasuke yelled and then a huge fire ball sped towards the blonde, but Naruto jumped near the river and formed handsigns.
"Uzumaki Secret Jutsu: Uzu no Tate" Naruto shouted. Then water rose up out of the river and swirled into a whirlpool before going in front of Naruto and protecting him from Sasuke's fireball. Sasuke couldn't believe his eyes. The dobe, he was losing to the dobe.
"Surprised eh Sasuke, well that's not all" Naruto said and formed handsigns.
"Suiton: Suiryudan no Jutsu" Naruto said. The whirlpool then morphed into a dragon's head and then the dragon sped towards Sasuke. Naruto grinned like a maniac before he laughed. The water dragon gave a roar. Sasuke formed some handsigns and then held his hand out in front of him.
"Raiton: Rairyuheki no Jutsu/ Wall of Lightning" Sasuke yelled, and then electricity poured out his body and expanded forming a wall in front of him. The dragon crashed into the lightning wall and then disappeared in a splash. Naruto then ran forward, Sasuke also ran forward and they engaged in a heavy taijutsu battle. Kakashi was on the sidelines, admiring the amount of skill Naruto and Sasuke had with their new jutsus, while Sakura was cheering on Sasuke. Naruto then aimed a kick at Sasuke's stomach, but Sasuke caught the kick and then twisted Naruto ankle, intending to break it, but Naruto spun with the twist and freed his leg, Naruto then got back up and threw a few punches which Sasuke blocked, however Naruto had then sent a fast kick to Sasuke's stomach knocking the wind out of him and then followed up by punching Sasuke in the chin, then ducked and formed a kagebunshin which kicked Sasuke in the chin sending him upwards, Naruto followed up and added a kick of his own before grabbing Sasuke's ankles, formed a few flips and slammed Sasuke in the dirt. Naruto then rolled back onto his feet and threw a few shuriken. Sasuke slowly got up and then formed some handsigns and then spun.
"Katon: Karyuheki no Jutsu" he said and then a whirl of fire melted the projectiles. Naruto sneered at Sasuke, who grinned in satisfaction. Naruto then decided he needed to end this now and then channeled chakra and formed some handsigns.
"Secret Uzumaki Jutsu: Tsume no Sui" Naruto said and then water surrounded his hands and formed claws. Naruto showed his foxy grin to Sasuke. "I win" Naruto said and then disappeared in a blur of speed. Everyone's eyes widened at the pace Naruto moved at, only Kakashi could track him. Naruto then appeared in front of the Uchiha with his claws of water held in front of the Uchiha's face.
"Slash…you are dead and I am the victor, I claim victory of this battle between myself and the Uchiha-teme" Naruto yelled and then looked at the time, it was time to go home. Sakura then looked at Sasuke and saw the bruises and cuts he had gotten from Naruto. She glared at the blonde who was celebrating his victory.
"I'll never forgive you for this, Naruto-baka" Sakura said. Naruto turned and put on a mock sad face.
"Oh how will I ever live with myself?" he said sarcastically before he turned back to leave, Kakashi then got up to go and check on Sasuke before going to have a talk with our blonde jinchuriki.
Konoha streets
Naruto was walking down the street feeling rather good about himself as he ignored the villagers glares which he received at a daily basis. He had learned some jutsu, mastered them and then to wrap it all up, he had beaten the Sasuke's ass in front of Sakura and Kakashi-sensei. Yup this was a good day and also he got to go to the chunin exams. Then he turned when he heard some footsteps behind him.
"Oh hey Kakshi-sensei, sorry about beating up Sasuke so badly, it's just that I needed to put him in his place and to make a point" Naruto said. Kakashi waved his hand.
"No it's alright, in fact what you say is totally true, but next time, don't be so rough" Kakashi said, "what was that point you were trying to make anyway?"
"That even a dobe can become strong" Naruto stated. Kakashi smiled and ruffled Naruto's hair.
"I'm proud of you Naruto, I'm glad to call you my student in fact I think you're the only one who has enough potential to become chunin, but in order to get through the first and second rounds, you need that aspect of teamwork with Sasuke and Sakura, so just try to get along with them for the time being, just until the third part of the exams, okay Naruto" Kakashi said.
"Hai…I'll try sensei" Naruto said and then Kakashi left in a poof of smoke.
'Well Kyuubi-sensei, time to train' he thought to the fox.
I've already made the schedule kit, Kyuubi replied with a vulpine grin.
Naruto's apartment in his mindscape
Naruto was in his mindscape when he arrived home and was training with Kyuubi.
"So sensei, what did you say you were going to teach me?" Naruto questioned.
I will be teaching you the ability to transform into an animal, namely a fox, Kyuubi said with a wide grin.
"What how will turning into a fox help…me?" he questioned slowly as the words processed in his mind. "Ooooohhhhhh, nice I love it, teach me" Naruto said in excitement. Kyuubi chuckled.
Okay, so in order to turn into a fox, you must visualize the look of a fox, its scent, every single physical aspect of it if you want to become one of us, Kyuubi explained, now just close your eyes and in order to turn into a fox you must say the magic words, I'mabigstupidfathead. Kyuubi said with a snicker. Naruto closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"I'mabigstupidfathead" Naruto said, and then opened his eyes and looked at himself and saw the Kyuubi laughing and rolling on the floor. "Kyuubi I thought you said saying those words would help me" Naruto said angrily.
Naruto say those words slowly and you'll hear what they say and then you'll understand why I'm laughing, Kyuubi said and then returned to busting his gut and feeling his spleen die so many times from the amount of laughter. Naruto thought as he processed the words slowly through his brain.
"I'mabigstupidfathead, I'm…a ..big..stupid..fat..head" Naruto said to himself before his eyes widened in realization. Naruto glared at the fox. "Now I know why people hate you baka kitsunes" Naruto growled.
Aww come on kit don't be like that, ok to really turn into a fox you must do the first part of everything I said, and then you will morph into one of kin Kyuubi said. Naruto nodded and then closed his eyes and focused on being a fox. Then the most extraordinary thing happened. Naruto's whiskers became darker and then grew off his face and became actual whiskers, his ears elongated and became pointed like Kyuubi's, golden blonde fur covered his body, his toes and fingers came together and changed into paws and then finally, a single golden tail sprouted out of his skin, but the most painful part finally came. Naruto fell to the ground howling in pain, that's right howling, as his bones and muscles rearranged themselves to form the bones and muscles of a kitsune's. Naruto then fell from two legs to all fours and then Naruto opened his eyes, they were still cerulean blue, but the pupil was slitted and then Naruto let out a howl. Naruto then looked at himself.
"Hahahaha, I did it, it hurt like hell, but I did it I'm a kitsune" then Naruto froze. "How do I change back, Kyuubi-sensei?"
Okay kit now that you've mastered the kitsune transformation, you must now do the hanyou transformation, for when you accomplish this exercise you are no longer human or demon, but half demon, a hanyou. Kyuubi said. Naruto was silent before he started freaking out. (Ever watch Johnny Test, well you know when Dukey freaks out, yeah Naruto's doing that).
"What do you mean I'm not human, people will surely notice the tails and ears poking out" Naruto screamed. Kyuubi waved his paw.
Relax, just focus on changing into your human form and the transformation will do the rest. Naruto forced himself to calm down and then focused and his bones popped and cracked as he transformed again. This time he looked like his human self except he now the hair by where his ears were had grown to cover it up and the two fluffy ears stuck up out of his blonde locks and the tail still swished behind him.
"Okay now what?" Naruto asked, "How do I get rid of the fluffy thingies here and here" he asked gesturing to his head and rear.
You can't, but I can cast a genjutsu around you that will hide them, Kyuubi said.
"Oh well, guess I'll just have to get used to the tail and ears not being on the side of head" Naruto said, "guess I'd better get going then, later sensei" he said and was about to leave.
Oh no you don't you will stay here until midnight, it's only 2:30 right now and you will stay here and train in your transformations because at the speed you do it at anybody would have killed you by then Kyuubi commanded.
Naruto nodded, "Yes Kyuubi-sensei" Naruto said and then for the rest of the day within the confides of Naruto's mindscape, his screams continued until midnight.
Time Skip- Next Friday
Over the week, Naruto had tried and eventually succeeded in trying to make things work out between Sasuke, Sakura and him. He told them that they would work together for the first 2 parts of the exam and then during the final part they wouldn't help each other and then the killing blow. Once they became chunin, they didn't have to associate with him anymore, unless on missions. That got them to agree to help each other for the exams. Team 7 then walked to the Academy building where the first exam of the chunin exams was supposed to take place. Then as Naruto and the others were walking, Naruto rounded a corner and accidentally ran into a boy, about one year older than himself and a girl was about 15 was standing behind him. Naruto dusted himself off and looked at the two. The boy was wearing a cat like black body suit, wore some sort of Kabuki paint and to top it off some sort of large thing on his back wrapped in bandages. As for the girl, she was blonde, her hair tied in four individual ponytails, wore a purple top and skirt and you could see she was wearing a fish net suit underneath and saw their hitai-ates, both from the Hidden Sand Village.
"Gomen nasai, I wasn't watching where I was going" Naruto apologized. The boy however, didn't take the apology and sneered at Naruto.
"I don't care, I hate when people bump into me", he said and then looked at the girl, "Temari don't interfere" he added. The girl, defined as Temari shook her head.
"Kankuro, can you anywhere without picking a fight?" she asked with an annoyed tone. Kankuro smiled and shrugged and then cocked his fist back to hit Naruto. Naruto blocked the punch and then struck a pressure point on Kankuro's arm, disabling it. Kankuro was furious and then tried to reach the bundle on his back, but then a chilling voice was heard.
"Kankuro stop this nonsense immediately" the scary voice said. All heads turned to see a red headed boy standing upside down on a tree, he wore a brown and black outfit and had a most heavy, gourd on his back and had a tattoo with the kanji for love above his right eye.
"Gaara, gomen, this gaki here started it…" Kankuro started, but was halted mid-sentence.
"Shut up, or I'll kill you" Gaara said, each word dripping with killing intent. Gaara then disappeared in a whirl of wind. When the wind was whirling Gaara spied Naruto.
'He managed to paralyse Kankuro's arm and render him useless, he has skill' Gaara thought and then reappeared between Kankuro and Teamari.
"I'm sorry for the intrusion, I am Subaku no Gaara, you, the blonde, what is yours?"
"Uzumaki Naruto" Naruto replied. Sasuke then stepped forward.
"I'm Uchiha Sasuke" Sasuke said as though his name meant the entire world. Gaara then turned away from Team 7, ignoring Sasuke.
"I will see you at the chunin exams, Uzumaki Naruto, I will enjoy our fight" Gaara said. Naruto nodded and then watched the Suna team walk off. Team 7 then went to go to the Ninja academy, the place where all their training began, where the first exam was to take place.
Team 7 entered the complex, and then ascended to the third floor. When they arrived at the second floor they saw a large amount of people standing there demanding to be let into a room that had been said to be where the chunin exams were.
Team 7 looked at each other with confused looks, but they had only gone up two floors. Then realization hit Naruto.
"Listen guys" he whispered, "this is a decoy, this is really the second floor, so I say we leave this room and go up ahead so as to lower our competition" Sasuke and Sakura were surprised at the blonde's sensory abilities and then nodded dumbly.
Third Floor
Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura walked up to the third floor and then when they reached the door, Kakashi was waiting for them.
"Ah good you all showed up" Kakashi said.
"What might have happened if we didn't sensei?" Sakura asked.
"You all would never be able to go in if it was only two of you, for in order to go to the chunin exams, there must be 3 man teams, so go in and kick some ass" Kakashi said giving a thumbs up. The genin nodded and then went to walk, but then Naruto was held back by Kakashi.
"Naruto, give them a good introduction would you?" Kakashi asked. Naruto grinned and nodded. The team then entered the room and their eyes widened. The entire room was filled with a mass of glaring genin, all the glares fired towards at them.
"Sasuke-kun" a shrilly voice cried. Sasuke was then glomped by Yamanaka Ino. "I've been waiting for you in excitement" she said in a seductive voice. Sakura instantly got mad.
"Ino-pig, get your hooves off of Sasuke-kun!!" the pink haired banshee yelled to the blonde haired banshee. The two banshees then yelled at each other, until two more people joined the party.
"Hey guys, can you turn it down, it's very troublesome" Shikamaru said as Chouji walked beside him eating his chips.
"Hey Shikamaru, Chouji" Naruto greeted giving them high fives. Shikamaru and Chouji and smiled as they chatted with their friend.
"Naruto, nice clothes, looks like you finally decided to be smart now" Shikamaru said with a chuckle. Naruto was wearing a black jacket with the Uzumaki symbol on it and remained open to show the world his dark blue t-shirt underneath which had a picture of the yin and yang symbol with dragon on yin and a fox on yang, along with some long forest green cargo pants and blue ninja sandals.
"So guys how's training with Asuma, Kakashi-sensei and my team have been training like crazy when Kakashi signed us up" Naruto said, Shikamaru chuckled.
"Yeah we've training like crazy also, but Ino's been too much of a bitch so it was really troublesome" Shikamaru said. Naruto and Chouji laughed at the insult towards Ino. Ino however heard that started to shout at the lazy boy genius. Naruto found it was too silent and then pointed his finger at all the genin present.
"OI, MINNA, I AM UZUMAKI NARUTO AND I WILL DEFEAT YOU!!!!" Naruto yelled. The whole room glared and directed killer intent at Naruto. Naruto ignored them all and then fired back with a large amount of his own by firing up the Kyuubi's chakra. People then reduced theirs and backed and knew one thing, 'Don't mess with Uzumaki Naruto'.
"Hey Sasuke, we are so going to kick your ass" Kiba said as he and his team walked in. Kiba then walked forward and gave Naruto a high five.
"Kiba, buddy how's it going?" Naruto asked.
"Really good, but from what I can see you've gotten stronger and developed fashion sense, but Sasuke looks like a stupid asshole and Sakura…no comment on her" Kiba said. Sasuke gritted his teeth at the insult and attempted to punch Kiba, but Naruto blocked it.
"Sasuke save the violence for the exam, not now" Naruto said. Then there was a long moment of silence so Kabuto had no reason to go over and get information on the rookies. Then a large poof of smoke appeared and then a tall man wearing a bandana with a Konoha symbol on it and a long black trench coat with about 10 chunin stood behind him.
"Okay you gakis, time to shut your yaps and sit down, I am Morino Ibiki and I am proctor of first written exam" Ibiki ordered. Naruto cracked his fingers. Oh this was going to be fun.
(A/N: Naruto will finally take his chunin exams, but will he succeed and now next will be chapter for Chunin Exams Part 1)
