Darkness. He felt warm in his dark realm. There was not much to explain. The words darkness and peaceful was the only way to explain it…

"Someone turn it off" He grumbled. Oh he knew he wasn't dead. Like he said it was peaceful and he wanted it to stay that way
"Hashirama!" he heard someone yell. After a moment of silence, someone grabbed him and started to shake him franticly "Get up before I slap you Baka!"
"Fine!" He squirmed. When he opened his eyes he saw the two girls who made his life both hell and heaven "Oh hay Anko, Fishcake"
"Hello? HELLO?!" Anko shouted "After being attack by a chuunin and all you say is hello?! You had us worried sick!"
"Oh sorry" He yawned
"SORRY?!" Anko fumed
"Don't mess around Hashi. You're in the hospital" Naruko said
"Don't worry Fishcake…So how long have I been in here?"
"One day" Anko answered "You had a small concussion that's all"
"Oh so can I go now? I rather eat Dango then the crappy food they serve here"
"No they said that you should rest for the rest of the day" Naruko said
"You know me Fishcake" Hashirama grinned "I hate rules"
Throwing of the covers he dashed to the wardrobe to check if they had his clothes. He was disappointed when he saw another set of clothes "Where are my clothes?"
"Oh those? I threw those away. That" she gestured to the wardrobe "Is your new clothes. Ninja clothes"
Hashirama raised an eyebrow before taking out the clothes and setting them down on a table. His eye widened when he saw what they were. It was an ANBU style uniform which was made to fit him. They consisted of black clothing and red chest armour instead of the usual grey, complete with metal arm guards and gloves and three ninja pouches on the back-waist. There was also a long black trench coat which looked like the coat he saw Ibiki wear on the occasions he was him.
"Oh my" Hashirama said as he turned to Anko
"Call it a graduation present" She smiled. Anko was proud for the boy she considered her brother. Especially when she heard that he blew up a tree using one kunai
"But I'm not ANBU. Won't people think I stole it?"
"You really are a Baka" Anko rolled her eyes "If you were in ANBU you'd have a mask and a tattoo"
"Oh…Thanks for the clothes…Oneesan" Hashirama smiled
"You're welcome… Ototo" She almost felt like crying
"Be back in a sec!" He exclaimed before grabbing the clothes and ran into the bath room. A few moments of later, Hashirama came out looking like a man, with his head band tied to his belt "So how do I look?"
"Ummm…" Naruko looked away with a small blush which did not go unnoticed.
"Looking good Ototo. Makes you look like a professional"
"Thanks!" Hashirama grabbed his wallet on the bench and flipped through it "Perfect!" He walked over to the open window before saying "See ya at home Fishcake"
"Where are you going?" She asked
"Going to by some sealing gear" And he jumped out leaving the two girls alone
"About time you acknowledged him as your Ototo"
"I was waiting for him first" Anko said "So what shall it be? Dango or ramen?"
"Both please" Naruko chirped
"Lets see. Where do I go to get some Ninja supplies?" He said to himself as he walked along the streets of Konoha. He didn't know where to get the supplies from. Most of his ninja gear was gotten from the academy and they were never sharp enough. The ones he used on Mizuki were impractical. They were too dull. Plus if he wanted to use that imploding technique again then he needed a different colour then black. Sure he could just draw the Chakra battery sloppily but he would need it as near perfect as possible if he wanted to channel much chakra as possible.
Soon Hashirama's aimless wondering led him to a shop that had an endless range of weaponry
"Wow. Talk about over kill" he joked as he entered the shop, causing a bell to herald his presence
"Hi there!" A bun haired girl greeted from the other side of the shop "Are you looking for something?"
"Yes. Do you happen to have some transparent sealing ink and a brush?" He asked
"Sure. I'll be right back" she said before walking to the back room. Hashirama never had a liking of weapons. Other than Kunai and shuriken, any other weapon was too hard to master. So he ignored everything as he walked to the counter were he waited for the girls return. A few moments later she came out with four bottles of the stuff and a fine paint brush. She set them down on the bench and started to add the money together
"Ok that's two thousand ryo" She smiled
"Two thousand? A little steep don't you think?"
"What? It's transparent ink. People would die to get them"
"Then why don't people buy it?"
"Because there are hardly any Fūinjutsu users in Konoha anymore. People don't bother trying anything other than sealing scrolls"
"Well it looks like there is one more Fūinjutsu user in Konoha" Hashirama smiled
"Really? You what to become an Fūinjutsu master? That's hard to do"
"The Yondaime Hokage did it and he was an orphan" He retorted "Plus I think I have some new seals no one has seen before"
"You? You made a new seal?"
"Yip and I'm not going to use it any time soon until master throwing kunai" He took out his wallet and threw a few thousand ryo on the counter "Say is it possible if I can specially order some silver kunai?"
"Silver? Won't that give away the element of surprise?"
"That's exactly what I want" He grinned evilly
"Well Ok" She smiled, taking out a pen and paper she looked at him "What's your name?"
"Hashirama" the girl gasped
"Hashirama?! Are you a senju?!"
"Ah no. The Hokage named me you see" he laughed nervously before grabbing the gear and running off "Bye Tenten!"
"How did he know my name?" She said before looking at the name tag on her shirt and blushed in embarrassment "Oh, right. Duh"
Hashirama looked at himself in the mirror with nothing but his underwear on. He had no muscles what so ever but there was no fat ether. It was just a well-toned body. Brushing his hair back he sighed. He did not what to end up to his experimental kunai last night. No he had to get this perfect. Closing his eyes he made the hand seals and whispered
"Memory projection Justu" Then his pink eyes started to swirl with a mixture of pink and white. The whiteness merged, soon making two lines appear in a cross with a white dot in the middle. Refocusing, the image of the diagram came to his vision as he looked at himself. He aligned the memory up with his reflection.
This is it. No going back
He picked up the paint brush and dipped it into the ink. Slowly he began the process of recreating the Fūinjutsu. Stroke after stroke he went. He was totally calm. If he wasn't then he would sweet and if he sweet then it would mess with the seal. He didn't what that. First he did the spiral on his gut. That was where the core of the chakra was located and where he would place the bulk of his Fūinjutsu. Next he worked downward, finishing at the toes. After that he went upwards to his face, ending at his forehead. Then he did left arm. But then came the problem with his right arm. He knew this was the tricky part. He had drawn the seals which had to go on his right arm beforehand on paper. He took the paper and placed it on his right arm and made sure it was perfectly aligned to the rest of the seals. Sighing he placed his hands into a ram seal and whispered "Seal"
Suddenly his chakra flared as his natural chakra network adapted to his artificial one. Hashirama felt pain as he felt the ink seep into his skin and started to glow blue like the Kunai from his fight with Mizuki. This must be the reason why they used scrolls for this stuff. Then it stopped
"Ow" He grumbled. He took a look down at his body. It still glowed "Ok…Time to add chakra"
Hashirama felt pressure as he started to channel some chakra into his seals. First it did nothing. Then he added more in. This time he felt it. Not his doom in the form of an implosion, but another Chakra network Hashirama felt joy as he swapped his chakra between his seals and his body back and forth. It felt amazing and alien. Having two chakra networks felt weird. It was like having two bodies at the same time. Except that one of them always needed chakra or else he would die.
Thank kami. I thought I was going to die for a sec
"Now all I have to do now is to fill it up...I'll probably get two times my chakra into there. But first I need some Ninjustu"
"Oneesan?! Oneesan?!" he yelled, trying to avoid the numerous creepy crawlies in the forest of death. This was the only place he could find Anko these days. Normally he wouldn't go anywhere near the forest but he needed some proper ninja technique if he wanted to survive. He was a ninja-even if he didn't what to be-so he would have to survive as long as possible.
"What?!" Anko appeared right before him holding a giant spider leg which-if he knew her-she used as a weapon "What do you want? I found some good game and I'm not going to lose it"
"uh…I was just asking if you can teach me a Justu"
Anko smiled "A Justu?...Ok. But first you have to do me a favour" She licked her lips which not a good thing
"What is it?" Hashirama shivered.
"Take that roommate of yours on a date"
Wait for it… She thought
"…Ok" Hashirama grinned
"What?! No complaining? No nagging?"
"No" He shrugged "I was going to ask her out any way"
In truth he wasn't going to ask Naruko out. About a week ago he thought about having the young blond as he girlfriend but the negatives on having her as a girlfriend was equal to the positives. So instead he left it to fate. And apparently Anko too wanted him to do it. That was a good enough reason in his book.
"…You played me" She frowned
"You played yourself" Hashirama sighed "If you want I can pay for our next meal"
"Deal!" She screeched "Since you have above average chakra how about I teach you Grand fire ball Justu"
"I know that Justu! I saw Sasuke use it once or twice" He said proudly
"That makes it easier since you probably know the hand seals. Now the basic concept is to build up chakra into your lungs and ignite it as you breathe it out in one log concentrated burst. Got it?"
"Hai!"
"Oh and before I go Ototo, can you not call me Oneesan in public? I have a reputation to uphold" then she dashed off
"No problem Oneesan! Happy hunting!"
Five days later
Hashirama opened his eyes very slowly as he normally does and saw the cute face of one Naruko Uzimaki. Over the past week Hashirama trained and trained but also took Naruko out on a date as he promised his adopted sister. He was somewhat surprised about himself when was actually going through this. He remembered like it was yesterday when he initially hated Naruko. Now look at him. Who would have thought about him dating the girl, other than Anko of course. Since they weren't allowed into the fancy restaurants, or any other restaurant for that matter, they just settle for Naruko's favourate. Ichirakus. Ayame wasn't too happy that he took Naruko there for their first date. She spent a long time scolding Hashirama on how to treat a girl and what not. But the date was not too bad at all. Naruko and Hashirama talked about the night of the graduation. She still didn't know if she was top kunoichi. This stressed them both out. Then Naruko went all Uchiha emo and brooded about how she was the container of the nine tailed fox. Hashirama cheered her up from this as he listed all the good points she had that a demon fox can't have. She was almost crying after that. The happy kind of crying. When they went home they prepared before bed and slept like normal. Normal until Naruko gave a small kiss to Hashirama. She slept soundlessly as he melted into mush. It didn't help that he read the first few chapters of Icha Icha…
With training Hashirama found something very interesting. Turns out that the seal he put on himself could manipulate chakra. It did make sense as it was an artificial chakra network. But what made Hashirama jump for joy was that he didn't need to make hand signs! He could manipulate chakra as much as he wanted! He asked Anko how it worked like that and she said that he manipulating chakra is mental. And with his mind he could memorise it and apply it to his seal. This combined with the fact he could draw upon endless amounts of chakra, led to him to learn Grand fire ball Justu. Now all he had to do was handle was the distribution of the chakra and learn/master the justu. Awesome. He actually found a book on chakra distribution. He went to the library and picked up books in Fūinjutsu and chakra control. He didn't actually work on chakra control but it was pretty interesting. Walking on vertical surfaces and on water. That was something he wanted to do. Then there was chakra control exercises that included chakra affinities. He'd have to ask Anko about affinities after today. Moving on, those silver kunai he ordered worked perfectly with seals. He learned how to compress his seals so he could channel more chakra into the whole kunai. Now they shined less but it still retained its colour and could still blow up. He didn't get to practice as much as he wanted to with it. The only place he could really train was the forest of death but he could only stay there for a few minutes at most before he would get attacked by an oversized insect or a thousand. He also could have asked to have Naruko teach him the shadow clone but they decided that they would do it after they graduated.
But with the few moments he had to train, he figured out that the chakra battery was a very very deadly technique. The fire that was made in the explosion was heatless but when he reviewed his memories he saw the fire eating away at things like flesh, wood and sometimes rock. He didn't want to test how hot it was when he saw the left over metal from the kunai was, not red, but blue hot. And what was up with the blue flames? He hadn't read anything about blue flames before. Maybe it was because it was pure chakra?
Hashirama smiled a bit as he reached to stoke Naruko's cheek. When he did. She made a noise. Not a normal noise but… A purr. A PURR! Hashirama resisted the girlish urge to scream 'Kawai!' and smother her. But it became hard when she started to move around like a cat would…or a fox. He continued to stoke he cheeks as well as keeping his emotion in check until Naruko's eyes shot open
"Good morning Hashi" She yawned
"Morning Fishcake" he felt brave for a second so he leaned in and kissed her on the forehead before whispering "Guess what day it is"
"It's…Oh kami!" She squealed before pushing Hashirama of and ran to the bath room. From the floor said boy groaned as loudly as possible
"I guess I'll cook some instant ramen today"
"Ok class! Settle down!" They did not listen. Iruka sighed. Thank kami the year was over "SHUT UP!" They did this time. Iruka took the time to look around the room and look at this year's bunch of students. There was no argument when he says that there was talent in the gennin. Though it was mostly so because nine of them were clan heirs.
"I would like to congratulate you all on graduating the academy. I would also like to say that the life of the Ninja is not easy. All you would need to work hard and improve the skills you have today. Remember to watch out for each other and I hope you all the best. Now I'll start announcing the teams for this year. Team one…"
"So do you think that we'll be in the same team Naruko?"
"I know we are. Datebayo"
"I hope so. If not you then it would be that pink haired fan girl" it disgusted both of them that fan girls were allowed to pass the exam. They were easily the worst kind of Shinobi. Other than traitors of course.
"Team 7 Hashirama,…" Naruko leaned in to hear the next name
"Uchiha Sasuke…" All fan girls who were not picked perked up at the sound of their 'gods' name
"…Uzimaki Naruko" All fan girls dropped and started brood, well Naruko and Hashirama silently cheered
"And Haruno Sakura"
"WHAT?/YES!"
"Ha! True love conquers all Ino-pig!" Screamed a certain someone
"What the hell do we have her on our team?!" Hashirama cried
"Because the number of gennin is uneven" Iruka answered "There's twenty eight of you"
"But why our team?!" Naruko slammed her head on the desk
"Hashirama's scores are the worst out of every one. It was a miracle you passed. The Hokage thought it was necessary that Sakura should be on your team"
"I'm going to kill that old fart" Hashirama grumbled as everyone except a select few laughed. After the other teams were called out they were ordered to wait for their jonnin sensei. Hashirama didn't hear that. He just sat there swearing revenge on the Hokage. Team 7 watched each team got picked up by their jonnin sensei. Some of them looked powerful. One had a set of trench knifes which Hashirama took an interest in and another was a red eyed woman. Some of the remaining Gennin thought she had the sharingan for a short while. When all the jonnin left, only team 7 were left waiting. Soon they got restless when their jonnin sensei didn't show.
"Hashi? I'm bored!" Naruko moaned
"Bored? I am too" Hashirama agreed as he took out his sealing gear and silver kunais
"What's that?" Naruko wondered with a gleam in her eye
"Custom kunai. I'm going to put my special seals on them" He said as he started to draw the seals on them
Naruko perked up on that and whispered "You mean the one you used on Mizuki-teme?"
"Yip. I'm trying to perfect it"
Near perfect anyway, but she doesn't need to know that He thought
"Why is it silver?"
"It's used for strategy. I could get black ones but then it won't look as cool" Naruko nodded. She too liked the 'coolness' of silver kunai
"What is that?" Another person called. The duo looked up and saw Sakura standing there with her hands crossed
"My special kunai" Hashirama glared. Too bad she didn't notice it
"It can't be that special if a dead last made them" She smirked
What a bitch
"Wait until you see what happens when you see them in action" Naruko yelled
"Whatever. We don't need you here dead last, like Iruka said, you are the worst in the class" Sakura addressed Hashirama before walking away with the air of superiority. Naruko looked as though she was about to blow a gasket.
"Don't pay attention to her Fishcake" Hashirama placed his hand oh hers.
"Can't wait until you show them what you can do" She growled. And so Hashirama kept placing seals on the Kunais, waiting until their sensei came and took them. As time passed the four became more aggravated at the lateness of their sensei. They got angrier and angrier. Hashirma was the only one who wasn't angry as he was the only one to have something to do. Plus he knew that the jonin had to have a good reason to be late
Three hours later
Hashirama's eye twitched as he faintly heard a foot step come from the halls. Thanks to his past life as a pranked he had acute senses. Hashirama was normally calm too. But when he was the saw the door slide open and a head come through it he turned red with anger. His sensei had THAT hair!
"YOU!"Hashirama screamed as he threw all his kunai at the silver haired jonnin. In his spur of anger he missed all of them "You're that ANBU who took that damn picture!"
"Oh" Kakashi chuckled nervously "You remember that?"
"Damn right I do!" Hashirama growled as Naruko quickly used ninja wire to restrain him before he got…explosive
"Team 7 I presume?" He was met with three nods and an animalistic growl "Ok. Meet me on the roof" Then he poofed away in a Body flicker.
"Come on Hashi" Naruko sang as she dragged her boyfriend away by the collar
On the roof
"Hello team 7. I'm your sensei. You can call me Kakashi" The jonnin said "How about we get to know each other. Tell us your name, likes, dislikes, hobbies and your dream for the future"
"Why don't you go first sensei" The pink haired girl asked
"Well I'm Kakashi. I like…I don't like umm…I have a lot of hobbies and I haven't really thought about my dream"
All he told us was his name the gennin thought
"All right you, the blond one, you go first" Kakashi eye smiled.
"I'm Naruko Uzumaki! I like Ramen, Jiji and Hashi-kun! I don't like the three minutes you wait for ramen to cook and fan girls" she looked at Sakura who did not know what she was talking about "I like training and going on dates" She smiled at Hashirama who blushed "And my dream is to be Hokage!"
Sasuke snorted
Sakura rolled her eyes
Hashrirama smiled
She has sensei's calmness and Kushina-san's loudness Kakashi mused
"Next, Pink eyes"
Hashirama growled under his breath "I'm Hashirama. I like Fūinjutsu, Dango and Fishcake. I hate fan girls, silver hair-" He glared at Kakashi "-the colour of my eyes and people who underestimate the dead lasts. My hobby is improving my home, hanging out with Anko-neechan, working on my seals and taking my girlfriend out on dates. My dream is to build a Dango shop and become an Fūinjutsu master"
Sasuke and Sakura snorted
Naruko had a massive blush
Kakashi saw potential
Next was
"Uchiha Sasuke. There are a ton of things I dislike, which results in me not liking many things. Rather than dream, I have an ambition, which is to resurrect my clan, and to destroy a certain man"
He is so cool! Sakura mentally squealed
Oh Sasuke Naruko frowned What happened to you?
Kakashi sighed silently. Sasuke reminded him of himself when he was younger which was not a good thing
"Next pinkie" Kakashi said
Sakura growled at her nickname well Hashirama was glad that he didn't get that name "My name is Haruno Sakura, I like, rather the person I like is…." She glanced at Sasuke and giggled "My Dreams for the future? Eeek" She looked at Sasuke and squealed much to the displeasure of the other four people "My Hobby is…" She trailed off as she gave another quick glance at Sasuke "AND I HATE HASHIRAMA-BAKA!"
I still don't know why she doesn't like me? Said boy thought
Fangirl Naruko spat
Kakashi frown under his mask. Just a few hours ago he begged him not to give him another member. Three he can handle but not four. And right now he was sweating. Hashirama and Naruko seemed fine and maybe Sasuke if Naruko's happy attitude passes on to him. Sakura? Fan girl. He just hoped that she was a decent ninja…
"Well anyway, with that aside, we will begin our duties tomorrow" Kakashi grinned
Naruko looked at Kakashi with a little hope in her eyes "What kind of duties? Are we going on a mission"
"Close but no"
Hashirama frowned This seems suspicious
"We are going to do some survival training"
"Huh?" was Naruko's unintelligent response.
"We already did that at the Academy Sensei" Sakura stated confused
"This one is…special survival training" He chuckled softly.
"What's so funny?" Hashirama asked.
"Well don't flip when I tell you this…" He continued.
"Flip?" Sakura asked
"Well….Out of all the 28 academy graduates, only 9, maybe ten will move onto becoming genin, this training is in fact a test that has a guaranteed fail rate of 66%. But this is a special case, the odds of succeeding the test is now 50%" Kakashi's audience was stunned. "I told you not to flip"
"But what about the Academy exam?!" Sakura frantically asked.
Kakashi laughed, "Oh that? That is just so that those who are worthy enough for this test are picked out and those not are weeded out"
"WHAT?" Naruko yelled.
"Anyway, this test will be graded on the training field, so I would advise you to bring all your Shinobi tools, maybe even skip breakfast. We don't want you throwing up all over the place." Kakashi stated bluntly
He stepped forward and handed the Genin some sheets. "The details are listed on this printout, don't be late tomorrow"
This can't be….If I fail this I'll be separated from my Sasuke-kun! Sakura thought to herself
I CANNOT fail here Naruko thought to himself I'll just have to beat Kakashi-sensei before I become Hokage Datebayo!
Sasuke's hands balled into fists as he was filled with determination
Hashirama's face turned into the face of a maniac as he thought of the ways he would get his payback
Kakashi walked away as he let the genin chew on what he said.
The next day
Hashirama and Naruko checked their ninja gear before heading out to training ground seven, skipping breakfast in the process. The duo-for their own reasons-wanted to beat Kakashi and become gennin. Hashirama still wore his ANBU gear his sister got him. He loved the damn thing so much! It looked cool and it had the extra space for his sealing gear and scrolls. He only brought a dozen of his special kunai as he felt like he won't get the chance to use them all. The night before he thought about strategies on how he could defeat the Jonnin. He figured that he would have to use a combination of long and short range. Though he did initially suck at Taijustu, thanks to Naruko, and Anko, he invented his own style that consisted of speed and going with the flow. It felt right for him. Sadly it didn't carry enough strength. But combined with his ability to use low level Justu without hand signs, it could count as an advantage.
Naruko had all the basic gear that all ninja have. A bunch of kunai and shuriken and a few solder pills she scabbed of Anko. She really didn't need anything else because unlike Hashirama she was going to specialise in Ninjustu so that was all that was needed. Though she was given one of Hashirama's special kunai as safety measure. He told her to only use it when the opportunity presented itself, or if there was no other options. He said this because unlike Hashirama, she would probably channel three to five times more chakra then him and therefore make it allot more dangerous.
Arriving at training ground the duo saw Sasuke and Sakura sitting down by a large overhanging tree. Hashirama assumed they get up very early as they looked like zombies
"Hi you Guys!" Naruko shouted
"Hn" was the only answer
"You guys look like shit" Hashirama said bluntly
"Shut up dead last" Sakura growled who Hashirama ignored
"Sasuke? Since our sensei is not here yet you should take a look at this" Hashirama threw a scroll at him before walking away with Naruko. Sasuke eyed the scroll closely before opening it revealing a complete map of the whole training field.
"How did the dead last get this?" Sakura asked. Sasuke almost smiled when he thought about it. He most likely stole in like he usually does. Same old Hashirama.
Three hours later
"Morning" Kakashi said merrily as he walked onto the training field.
"YOU'RE LATE! AGAIN!" The females shouted
"Sorry. I saw an old lady walking across the street and I just had to help her"
"LAIR!"
"Now team follow me" he said before walking off with four gennin tailing behind. When they stopped, the gennin found themselves around another part of the training field with three logs and a stone monument of some type. Kakashi took out an alarm and set it down on one of the logs before he addressed the gennin.
"This alarm is set till noon. The goal of this test is to get these bells from me before then" He took out two bells and dangled them for all to see "All you have to do is get one and you pass. If you don't you fail, simple as that"
"But there's only two bells sensei" Sakura pointed out
"That's right. Like I said yesterday only half of you will pass. Plus if you don't get the bell…You get no lunch" As if on cue, four stomachs started to growled
"That's it! That the last time I ever leave home without my Dango!" Hashirama declared
"You're allowed to use anything to fight me. Come at me with the intent to kill"
"But won't you get hurt sensei?" Sakura asked
"I'm a Jonnin Sakura, if I get hurt then it shows that I need some serious training" Kakashi smiled "Now start when I say…Three…two…one…Now!"
In a unison the four gennin disappeared in a flash. Kakashi grinned under his mask
"Time to have some fun"
Kakashi stood in the middle of a large clearing reading his favourite book. Secretly he was watching two of his gennin who had already located him. He had to say that for gennin they sure hid themselves well. More specifically the Uchiha. Though he did wonder were the other two were. Soon his prays were answered when Naruko appeared in the same clearing, facing opposite the Jonnin.
"Hi Kakashi sensei! Say can I have those bells?" She asked
"Hmm no ever approached me like this" Kakashi wondered out loud
"Violence isn't always the answer" Naruko stated
"True but no you can't have them"
"Oh that's too bad" she chirped. Suddenly the aura around her changed as she made her favourite hand seal "Shadow clone justu!" six blond puffed into existence, each with a kunai in hand "lets go!" The original yelled before charging at the Jonnin. Kakashi sighed as he was the blonds coming. In a flash he replaced his book with a kunai and went to block the first clone. When he did he then punched another clone who was trying to flank him, and dispelled in a puff of smoke.
Meanwhile a pair of pink eyes was watching the fight from under the river of in the distance. He was lucky that his stealth skills was improved with his pranks that he played on shinobi. Hashirama watched as Kakashi effortlessly blocked and countered each clone Naruko threw at him. He felt pride in his girlfriend when he saw the real one at the back, summoning new clones as each one was dispelled. After waiting a few more moments he made his move. Bursting out of the river, Hashirama took out two scrolls containing dozens of silver kunai "Kunai barrage!" He yelled before unleashing hordes of silver kunai at him.
Kakashi saw these kunai coming at him and started to work a tad bit harder in deflecting the silver kunai
Is he trying to kill his teammate?! He thought. But then he noticed something No. None of the kunai are hitting the clones. They're preventing me from sneaking up behind Naruko. The clones and kunai are in synch with each other. Cleaver bunch
Naruko was grinning as she and Hashirama attacked the Jonnin. She was very happy that Hashirama was a good aim and that none of them hit her clones. Now all she had to do was to look out for the one that doesn't shine. Hashirama frowned as he threw all he had at Kakashi. He still managed to block everything. Time to step things up a notch. Digging into his pouch he got his seal kunais, only briefly charging them before mixing them into the hail storm of kunai. He watched as the kunai flew towards the two in battle. He watched carefully as it flew in front of the Jonin's face before it started to compress into a ball
That's it!
Acting like lightning he used Substation Justu and swapped with a Naruko clone as the blue explosion covered everything in a three meter radius. As expected his artificial chakra system recognised and absorbed the flames leaving his body unharmed. Charging through the flames he threw his fist out. As he planned it.
What was that?! Sakura thought what was that Justu? It was incredible!
That fire didn't burn him Sasuke analysed It looked like it destroyed everything else and left him unharmed
Hashirama watched as the log he punched turned into ash. He looked down at it as he caught his breath. The whole time he was using his normal chakra by channelling it through his seals before using Jutsu, and saved his stored chakra. He knew the battle was far from over
"That Justu. I've never seen anything like it" Kakashi said from behind Hashirama. He was kneeling down with his hands in a tiger seal "Tell me. What is it?"
"Fūinjutsu" Hashirama answered. Before Kakashi could use his number one most embarrassing technique Hashirama dropped something from his fist. His eyes widened as he was a small compressed ball
Boom!
Kakashi jumped back as the blue fire singed his mask. Hashirama turned around and opened his coat revealing more of the those darn Kunai. This when he yelled "Thunder run!" Sending a majority of his stored chakra to his feet and to his kunai he ran at near Chunnin speeds. During this his seals started to glow blue form the massive surge of chakra. Kakashi was almost scared when the Gennin reached him before he could land, leaving explosions everywhere, he went like thunder. He quickly used the Substation Justu appeared on the other side of the field, in time to see a large crater where he was standing. Ok. He was scared shitless. Then he felt the air behind him move. Turing around as quick as a Jonnin can, he saw another silver Kunai. Before he used the Substation Justu again, he swore Sasuke was grinning evilly in the background.
What did this kid learn?! He thought. This time he didn't talk any chances. He appeared all the way on the other side of the training field. He was about to relax until he heard something pop. Feeling fear once again he used Earth Release: Hiding Like a Mole Technique and buried himself in the ground…Deep deep deep underground. And he was right to do so as he heard a certain someone yell
"Chakra Kunai Justu! Half power!"
KABOOM!
Sakura, Sasuke and Naruko ran through the forest, to the location they saw a large flash of light come from. Naruko was half-panicking and half-happy. Hashirama could be hurt if she didn't get to him in time. On the other hand, Kakashi couldn't off gotten away in time and then they passed…Crap they completely forgot about the bells!
"Sasuke" Naruko said "Thanks for the help. You were always a better aim then me"
Naruko of coarse was talking about their plan. Since Sasuke was a better shot then Naruko they put him in the plan too. He was reluctant at first but Hashirama said that he would give his bell to him because of their past. He then agreed.
"Hn" he grunted "What was that Kunai? We saw him putting the seals on yesterday but what were they?"
"Hashirama called the Chakra kunai. He made them himself by splitting a seal. He said that he needed to understand more about chakra if he wanted to make them more powerful though"
"More powerful? Did you see that explosion?" He ask rhetorically
"I don't know how he does it but his seals are dangerous and only he is immune to the explosion. I don't know why though"
"Hm. He probably stole it and claimed it for himself" Sakura said. Naruko restrained herself from attacking the pink bitch. After seeing what he could do she still insults him! But then they arrived at a crater. A large crater. It was the size of a park! Naruko assumed he used a lot of chakra in his last bomb
"Oh Damn it! My legs hurt like freaking hell!" Someone yelled though the large dust clouds
"Hashi!" Naurko yelled into the crater
"Fishcake get me out of here!" Came a reply
"Come on guys!" Naruko said to Sasuke and Sakura. Once they got down there they saw Hashirama laying on the ground, breathing heavily.
"Hi" Hashirama grinned
"Hi? HI! Your muscles are worse than before!" Naruko yelled as she checked his wounds
"Before?" Sasuke inquired
"What? You didn't think I didn't know this would happen?" He shrugged "All I need is rest and a good medic to treat me. I'll be up and running in a day or two, no problem…But it still hurts like hell"
"Come on Hashi" Naruko said as she lifted him up
"Wait just a second!"
The Naruko jumped at the sudden voice behind her much to Hashirama's disarray. Shaking to the bone she turned around and was met with a fiery blue Kakashi. His clothes were singed, his hair charcoal black and his mask ripped revealing another mask.
"Hi" Hashirama shivered "So you survived?"
"Survive?" Kakashi growled "Oh I survived. But you fail!"
"Failed?"
"You recklessly attacked me, almost killed yourself and you used an S-rank Fūinjutsu that could have injured your teammates! What do you got to say for yourself?!" He yelled
"Well for one thing" Naruko said "You said to come at you with intent to kill"
"Yesterday me and Fishcake rigged this place with complete versions of the Chakra battery so my Chakra kunai wouldn't hurt neither Sasuke nor Sakura as they would absorb the access chakra" Hashirama grinned. He was doubly happy he found a basic Fūinjutsu book which helped him to successfully split the scrolls.
Kakashi was almost speechless. Fūinjutsu. Facking Fūinjutsu. It was impossible for a young boy who just graduated out of the academy to know Fūinjutsu! He may knew only two he doubted even he could make them. The chakra kunai technique was easily classed as a A-rank technique after what he had seen and Hashirama MADE the chakra kunai! Un-Fucking-Believable!
"And like we said Hashirama could be up and running in two days. Thanks to me, Hashi can keep up with me half the time" Naruko boasted
"Plus" Hashirama laughed evilly "You have to pass us" Naruko opened her hand and there were two bells. Kakashi looked down at his waist and saw that the bell was gone. Naruko ginned as she threw the bells at Sasuke and Sakura "You underestimate us Kakashi. I watched Anko-chan at her Chunnin exam and I leant everything is tied to being a ninja"
"…Crap" Kakashi mumbled before eye smiling "Just what I'd expect from Anko's brother"
"Got that right!" Hashirama yelled, pumping his hand into the air
"So we pass, right?" Sasuke asked
"That's right. Your team work was exceptional and you turned the whole battle field to your advantage. I'm sure you'd be the strongest gennin team to come out of the academy yet" He declared
"Yes Sasuke you did it!" Sakura yelled before smothering the Uchiha
"I feel sorry for him" Hashirama whispered into his girlfriend's ear
"I agree" Naruko mumbled.
"So how did you get the bells? And how did you know where I was at all times?" Kakashi asked
"Remember when you first used substation justu? Well Sasuke was the one who threw the Kunai at you and I grabbed the bells. Before the test started I used shadow clone justu to scatter around the training field so we could use substitution justu with them
She looked towards Kakashi "I'm going to help Hashi to the Hospital now Kakashi-sensei"
"Ok. Just meet here at 7 o'clock tomorrow. Oh and Hashirama…Don't ever push yourself like that ever again"
"Hai sensei. Just dodn't do anything cool well I'm away"
"I wouldn't dream of it"
