Disclamer I do not own Naruto or any of the carraters but i am doing this as a rewrite of Naruto:smoke ninja by "The fifth ridder of armageddeon" He droped this story for resons i do not know.

"Naruto!" cried Sarutobi as he flew across his desk and hugged Naruto.

"Hey old man it's nice to see you too." said Naruto as he put on his mask.

"So you've joined The Village Hidden in the Smoke? Its been a while sence their village participated in the Chunin exams."

"Yes it has only because we suffered some of our citizens and shinobi to a plague." replied Yami.

"Oh I'm so sorry about your loss."

"Anyway promise not to tell anybody." demanded Yami.

"I promise."

"Okay now if you have anything else to say we will be on our way." said Yami as they exited the office.

'It's great to have you back Naruto.' thought Sarutobi as he took out his pipe, an orange book, and started giggling like a little school girl.

Naruto smiled as he walked between his brother and sister. His cloak billowed slightly as a trace of wind caught it. He was enjoying his return to Konoha in some cruel way, and he felt happy that Sarutobi was still around. Glancing to his right he noticed one of his favorite spots, turning slightly he walked towards the small stand. His teammates shrugged and followed. Naruto leaned forward a bit and glanced inside the cooking section of the stand. Inside a young woman was tending to a pot of ramen.

She felt someones eyes on her and turned slightly to see two boys and one girl patiently waiting. Blushing at her rudess she moved to the counter.

"I'm sorry I didn't hear you three come up."

"It's okay." The three said in a union.

She smiled. "So what would you like?"

Naruto perked up. "A large bowel of Miso Ramen."

Nodding she turned to the sword wielding masked boy next to him. "And you?"

"A large bowl of beef ramen would be nice."

She nodded and turned back to her last customer. "and you?"

"The same."

She nodded again and moved back to the stove. Naruto was drooling in anticipation of once again enjoying a bowel of his favorite ramen.

Naruto took the lead as he showed his teammates his old town. The other two didn't mind they were actually enjoying the quiet. Naruto would just point if he passed something or someone he knew but not much was ever said. They looked up in surprise as they heard someone yelling. Glancing at each other they headed towards the noise.Kankuro was still tormenting Konohamaru when Naruto walked up. Gaara and Sasuke had just finished their little chat. Gaara was about to move off when he saw them. Temari wondering why he stopped followed his gaze to Naruto's team. Kankuro also followed his gaze. Sakura who was stuck babysitting the kids noticed their gaze and turned around. Sasuke jumped to the ground and moved to stand next to his fellow teammates. Sai who was helping Sakura with the kids stood with his katana ready.

'Kyuubi do you sense something coming from that kid with the gourd on his back' asked Naruto

'Yes he's the container of Shukaku the one tailed raccoon be careful around him kit Shukaku is an insane mother fucker .'

'Thanks.'

"What's your name?" asked Gaara and Sasuke.

"My name is Smoke I'll see you in the exams." replied Naruto in a cold voice.

The next day

Naruto, Asher, and Musoli moved down the hall passing the group standing in front of a door marked 301 which was being guarded by two students stopping the grinned when they saw Sasuke demand to be let by. Naruto shook his head. "If he had just kept his mouth shut we would have lessened out competition."

Turning they walked towards the stairs only to hear a commotion behind them glancing back they saw a boy dressed in a green spandex suit stop two attacks with minimal effort seeing that the fun was over they moved upstairs and out of sight of the rest of the gennins. Opening the double doors they stepped inside the massive room. Other teams looked up as they entered only to grin seeing a supposedly unsuspecting gennin team. Grinning Naruto lead his team over to one of the windows and got comfortable.

(Alright I am not going to mention the small fight between Sasuke and Lee it is the exact same as Sasuke gets his ass handed to him and yes the whole GAI and LEE thing as well. They scare the hell out of me!)

The door opened once more as Sasuke, Sakura, and Sai entered. As the pack watched the other Konoha genin teams met up with them and they began to chat. There conversation was interrupted by another gennin

Kabuto was watching with interest as Sasuke and the other genins studied the information he was giving them. "If you want I can even give you detailed info on specific people as well. Sasuke looked intrigued.

"Do you have info on Gaara of the sand, Rock Lee, and the smoke ninja's."

Kabuto nodded and flipped his hands through the stack of cards coming up with four. "Lets see Gaara of the sand. Eight C-ranked missions… hmm even one B-ranked mission. I don't have much else on him just that he has returned from every mission without a scratch."

The gennins looked up and around till they spotted Gaara who was sitting between Temari and Kankuro. Sasuke looked back at Kabuto. "What about the others?"

"Rock Lee is a year older than you guys. Mission history: Twenty D-rank; eleven C-rank. Sensei is Maito Gai. His taijutsu has improved greatly in this year, the rest is nothing impressive. This is his first exam with his teammates; Neji Hyuuga and Tenten."

"The Smoke ninja's hmmm... I don't have much information on them. I only know that they have completed five D-rank, two C-rank, and WHAT!! one S-rank mission's. Their villager's call them Smoke, Fire, and Metal their sensei is called Shadow. That's all the info I have on them except they are the first genin team to participate in the chunin exams in over ten years. said Kabuto.

The genin were in shock never before have they heard a genin team doing a S-rank mission.

"All right maggets listen up I'm Ibiki Morino now get ready for your written test."
