Hello everyone, thanks for the positive review, here is a new chapter, enjoy! 10/03/2015


New Team and Bells

"Did you hear the news!"

"Yes I did," a woman nodded.

"Never thought they would let him graduate from the academy."

"I heard that his papers where tampered with,"

"I think they are tampered now, if they did let him graduate and become a shinobi for our village."

"Well I hope he will die soon on one of those missions…" whispered a woman.

Naruto heard it all, as he walked through the village as a normal civilian through his Henge no jutsu.

"Foolish, they are all foolish." Kitsune roared as he glared through the eyes of his host. "But, the satisfaction when your SS-secret comes out…" the Kitsune laughed evilly as his host walked towards the Academy.

Naruto had wrapped his hitai around his grey rope belt that held the sheath of his shinobi wakizashi. His shinobi wakizashi is made on order by a famous black smith and is made from very rare chakra metal. His scabbard looks on first sight as a normal Bo, a stick. But in reality both ends are the hilts of his dual twins shinobi wakizashi and can only pulled out of his scabbard by infusing his sword with his chakra a safety mechanism.

"You're really glad that you can finally pull out your wakizashi, he gaki?" Kitsune said. He tried to let his host talk to him but so far he didn't accomplice far. "C'mon gaki, talk to me!" Kitsune roared, as he was bored to dead.

"Alright, I am talking, what do you want?" Naruto said as he slipped into the shadows when he saw Sasuke walking further down the path.

"Finally," Kitsune said cheerfully, "Now that you're a shinobi, we can work our way to our goal."

"Yes we can," replied Naruto as he jumped up by pushing himself up the wall with his feet and landed in a crouch on the roof. "Kitsune when the times comes…"

"When the times comes we will strike!" Kitsune finished the statement as Naruto jumped from roof to roof and watched Sasuke run down through the streets.

"But so far, we have still a long way to go." Kitsune nodded in agreement. "Let forget our goal for a moment and concentrate on the now. If I am correct today we will be placed in groups with our own shinobi sensei that will guide us in our professions."

"Ha, those fools at the academy are nothing more than spoiled brats. I bet you can kick their eyes with your eyes closed." Braked the nine-tails.

"I can beat the hell out of them with my eyes closed and win. So who do you think that will become my new team mates, Kitsune-san?" The Academy doomed up in the distance and to his satisfaction Sasuke was hold up by his horde of fan-girls and one pink haired girl.

"I don't know, but if it the pink haired and the Uchiha then maybe I might kill them in a innocent accident…" Kitsune said with glee as he pictured the thousands ways of bringing them close to death.

"Hey don't forget me, I want a piece too." Naruto thought back in amusing, as he heard the nine-tails not saying that they would share them.

"Sorry gaki, but they're all mine…" Is the last thing what echoed through Naruto's head before gaining a headache when his prisoner laughed maniacally?

"Shut it, Kitsune-teme," Naruto thought and broke the connection between them to kept a bit of his sanity as he entered the class.

Everyone was behind his or her tables and Naruto could clearly see the hitai on them. Many of them wear them like headbands and most of the girls wear them around their neck or waist. All looked at him when he entered the room and were surprised to see him joining them with a hitai of his own.

Sasuke glared at Naruto when he entered the room. The Uchiha prodigy could not believe his eyes when he saw the dead last join his class, he, Uzumaki Naruto stands there in front of him and when said boy turned around to face him with his signature bright smile, then his eyes caught the hitai around his waist that was wrapped around his grey belt robe and his glare ten folded.

"Dobe… I did never expected to see you here in my class. I mean, everyone had heard that you had failed again this year graduating and now we see you here in my class with a hitai of your own." Sasuke pointed at the hitai with a sour look. "So from who had you stolen the proof that you had graduated from the Academy and becoming a full fledged shinobi."

Everyone listened to Sasuke that openly insulted the blond boy. Many did not like the Uchiha prodigy, as he is an arrogant, haughtily stuck up that degrades everyone else, but they don't like Naruto either. Their reason for that is that they don't want to stand at the bad end of Uchiha Sasuke. Since the massacre of the Uchiha clan, the civilian council has hailed the last survivor as a hero of the village and has given him everything on a whim. The civilians that wanted to become a shinobi or kunoichi, sees him as their model and if they could please him by degrading Naruto then maybe Sasuke will bring in a good word to the civilians council and they will become powerful shinobi of their own, but alas none of them passed the graduating and must wait another year to graduate from the Academy, except for Haruno Sakura. The other students ignored Naruto as they were too selfish, but immensely enjoyed when Naruto and Sasuke got into an argument and mostly it ends up with Sasuke at the end of a kunai or on the floor.

Naruto looked at Sasuke before ignoring him as he walked further down the row of seats, pass Kiba, Chouji and Hinata who looked delighted that Naruto had made it to her class.

"Glad that you could make it, Naruto-kun." Hinata mumbled with her head down and a blush on her cheek. She thought that she had spoken low so no one could hear her, but Naruto smirked at her cheerfully and whispered so only she could hear it, "Thank you Hinata-hime."

Hinata's face turned beet red as she fidget with her fingers, he had heard me, Naruto-kun had heard me…

Hinata was pulled out of her thought when Sasuke attracted all the attention when he snarled at Naruto. "Don't ignore me dobe! I demand that you explain how you did end up here in my class!"

Naruto walked peaceful further down the row of seats when a pink haired girl suddenly blocked his way. "Haruno Sakura a good morning to you." He said when he saw who it was that blocked his path with an angry scowl on her face.

"Don't talk to me, you dead last, now explain to Sasuke-sama how you did end up in his class!" the girl demanded of him.

"Troublesome fan girls," mumbled Nara Shikamaru as he laid his head down on his arm that rested on his desk.

"Agreed," The nine-tails thought as he had heard the Nara heir. "That pink haired billboard brow works on my nerves…"

Same here, same here buddy Naruto agreed mentally as he heard the Kitsune growl when the girl ranted on against his host.

He sighed before leveling his eyes with hers, "And care to explain, why I would explain myself to him or to you how I gained my hitai, Sakura?" he interrupted the rand that came out of the number one fan of Uchiha Sasuke.

"Yes, there is a dammit good reason for that, as this is the class that Uchiha Sasuke-sama takes and now we might end up in a team with you of all people. You, a worthless dirt from the street that had no home, no money, no friend or no parents…" Here Naruto eyes turned crimson red with black slit for a second while the nine-tails growled low, "a dead last like you could not even hold a second against my Sasuke-sama," here the fan girls cheered as Sakura spoke positive about her crush while the others groaned, here we go …again!

Who was it again that trashed the Uchiha prodigy on graduating day? Shino though while rising an eyebrow behind his glasses as others thought the same as him.

Hinata looked at her crush and saw his jaw tightening and to her horror his blue eyes turned crimson that immediately vanished back to blue. Did I imagine something?

"Sakura," Naruto growled low from out of his throat. Everyone felt a chill down their spine when they heard him call out her name. "You can insult me all you want and it doesn't hurt me one bit, but…"

Here the students that were closed to him stepped far away in fear of being tangled up in a fight. "But you can never insult my parents! You don't know a thing about them, they were honorable people of Konohagakure no Sato that had fought in there own unique way to defend the people that are precious to them. They might be common villagers, they might be shinobi or kunoichi, but I can promise you that they will surprise you when I found out who they are and it will surely surprise everyone here of who they are."

Sakura stood there shaking like a leaf as Naruto's voice was void of all emotion. "So don't you dare to insult my parents or any other people that had sacrificed themselves for the safety of our village as that doesn't dishonor them, but those that tried to disgrace the honorable fallen and next time when you spout such words, I will not hold it to verbal speaking but something entirely else if you caught the meaning of my word."

The girl nodded fearfully as she sunk to her knees while Naruto walked pass her and took his seat. "She will pay someday for those insult on your parents. Your parents were far above a common villager, shinobi or kunoichi. They were brave warriors of the hidden leaf village that protected their only son against me…"

"Thanks Kitsune-san, your words made me all warm and shows me that I had handled this at its best."

"You did what you thought best and I am proud of you that you spoke first and warns her then immediately attacked her, also I am sorry of what I did to your parents, I had no control about myself…"

"Kitsune… please the past is the past and I feel that they are always with me and beside you're kind of a parent towards me, Kitsune-tousan."

"They are with you musuko, they are with you…" Kitsune thought as he felt the threads of their chakra circulate through the seal. "I can't wait when the day comes that you meet them,"

"Hn… so you say that your parents are not worthless and instead were honorable heroes? People that have fought and defended, mine village? You're delusional if you believed that your parents were someone important. Not only you, but all of you if you believe that your parents, clan and friends were someone important, there's only one that is important and that's me and my clan." Sasuke spoke with such an arrogant that everyone looked at him with disgust except his fan girls. "Don't look at me with your filthy eyes if you can't handle the truth."

"How dare you!" Kiba growled, glaring at the Uchiha prodigy while Akamaru barked, revealing his large canines. "With what right do you claim Konohagakure no Sato?"

"I claim it, because my clan is the one that had built this village and so by right it is mine." Sasuke spoke haughtily as he glared with hard eyes at the Inuzuka heir.

Shino spoke up this time with a soft, but strong and clear voice, "I think it is you that is delusional Uchiha Sasuke. Konohagakure no sato is founded by the Senju clan and Uchiha clan first, but they were immediately joined by the other clans as the Nara clan, Hyuga clan, Inuzuka Clan, Aburame clan and not last and least the Namikaze clan and together they formed Konohagakure no Sato, so your claim is invalid."

"Hn… whatever." Sasuke returned back to his seat while glaring at everyone that dared to glare at him.

"Thanks Kiba-san, Shino-san for defending the other clans from a delusional clan survivor." Naruto thanked the two boys that smirked or at least he thought that Shino smirked at him.

"No thanks Naruto-san, he had it coming." Shino said while also returning to his seat and turned back to his stoic self. The peace hadn't returned too late when the door slid open and Iruka-sensei entered the room and frowned at the cemetery fiber that hung in the air.

"Good morning class," Iruka-sensei greeted his class while shaking off the dread feeling. "Today will be my last day of being your sensei and I can proudly announce that you all graduated from the Academy!"

Cheers erupted from the students except a certain Uchiha.

Iruka had tears in his eyes as he chanted, "Well done, well done."

When the calm returned he continued, "Today I will announce to you your new team that from this day on will the team that you will work together with through missions together with your new instructor that is a jonin that will guide you to become an excellent shinobi of Konohagakure!" Cheers broke out again and Iruka needed to use his loud voice to silence them. "I will now announce the teams," he called the names of his soon former students. "Team Seven is Haruno Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke…"

"Yes! Beat that Ino," Sakura yelled triumphantly as she looked dreamingly at Sasuke. " And Uzumaki Naruto! Your sensei is Hatake Kakashi" Iruka-sensei finished Team Seven.

"Maybe fate wanted us to kill Sasuke-teme?" Kitsune laughed evilly.

"I bet they wanted us to finish the massacre of the Uchiha clan…" Naruto thought while not looking at his now new teammates that stared holes in his head. You're so dead! Those eyes said,

Poor Naruto-kun, be being placed with those egoistic people, Hinata thought as she glanced with sad eyes to Naruto.

"Team Eight is Aburame Shino, Inuzuka Kiba and Hyuga Hinata! Your sensei is Kurenai Yuuhi!"

Hinata smiled when she heard whom her sensei would be. Yuuhi Kurenai is someone that she knows from childhood and to Hinata she is a mother figure. Her two new teammates Shino and Kiba are two boys that she find kindly and she hopes that they will work well together.

"Now the last team is Team Ten that exist of Akimichu Chouji, Yamanaka Ino and Nara Shikamaru! Your sensei will be Sarutobi Asuma."

Team Ten nodded and all attention turned back to Iruka. "Your sensei will join you here soon and they will brief you further into the schedule that they had made for their respective teams. Lastly I will say that I am extremely proud of you all and would never had dreamed that you all would be shinobi of the hidden leaf, make yourself, your family, friends proud and never give up, demises!"

"Hai!" the soon be former students shouted and Iruka whipped away his tears with the back of his hand while his lips formed into a smile.

"Oh, wait! Before I forget, you must wait here so your new instructor can pick you up." Iruka rubbed the back of his head with a grin on his face that he had forgotten something such important as this.

Naruto watched as many students joined their respective teams and started to talk with each other while, he, Naruto looked at his new teammates that bored holes in his head with their stares. "Great! I get the number one fan girl of the greatest arrogant prick that ever existed since the time of Uchiha Madara and the prodigy is nothing more than all talk!"

Slowly the room streamed empty as Jonin picked up their respective teams and the blond watched Hinata, Kiba and Shino leave with a pretty young women with a full bust that left little of the imagination that winked at him while he grinned back. A few minutes later he saw a familiar face, that of Sarutobi Asuma that picked up his new members that existed out of Ino, Shikamaru and Chouji. Shikamaru raised one lazy arm into the air in a motion of farewell while Chouji offered sushi to him before leaving him and Ino glared at Sakura of stealing her spot in Sasuke team.

A few minutes passed that turned in hours, "Argh, how long does he intent to let us wait?" Sakura moaned as she stared at the door that remained closed while Sasuke responded in his usual "Hn…"

Naruto glanced at his new teammates before leaving his place. "Hey, where are you going dobe."

"Delivering a message," replied Naruto offhandedly.

"To who?" the second member said,

"The bathroom if you don't mind."

"…" Sakura kept mute when Naruto left the room and in a few minutes he returned with a bucket full of water and closed the door a bit, then pulled a chair so he could place the bucket on the edge of the door and then returned back to his seat.

"Dobe, a jonin will never fall for a booby trap like that," Sasuke started when the door slid open.

Splash! There at the entrance stood their Jonin instructor. The shinobi wears his hitai askew so that it would hide one eye while the other glanced lazily through the room from under the bucket and rested on Sasuke that glared at the Jonin. "How would I say this …my first expression of you guys are …I hate you!"

"Feeling is mutual, a jonin instructor doesn't fall in such a lame trap!" Sasuke snarled at his new sensei.

"I don't care what you think, boy. Meeting on the roof within ten seconds!" The instructor ordered with still the bucket on his head as he left the room and Sakura rushed after him, when she arrived at the hall. The hall was empty at a few floating leafs left.


Kakashi Hatake landed on the edge of the roof and picked out his book, Icha Icha Paradise while waiting for his new team. He would have never thought that he would gain his own team after what had happened to his last one. Well, here he is now, waiting for his team after the Hokage had asked him to take this team. The hokage said that this team would be something special with the last survivor of the Uchiha clan and he as the last user of the sharingan in Konohagakure would teach the prodigy how to use his family heritage.

The Jonin heard steps climb the stairs and watched as Sasuke and Sakura appeared and took seat next to each other, while he waited at his last member, the blond boy, but after waiting he started to look around and to his surprise he saw that the blond sat on the other edge looking out over the village.

How come I hadn't heard the boy arriving at the roof, no, how come I didn't sense him at all, while I was waiting for them? Kakashi thought in surprise as he eyed the blond boy for a second and called out for him. "Hey gaki, can you take place your seat next to your teammates?"

The blond boy stood up, slowly turned around and when Kakashi saw the face, his eyes widened in surprise and a low whisper escaped him. "…Minato-sensei."

The boy that looked like a younger version of Minato-sensei smirked at him as if he had heard him. The boy looked exactly like Minato with his blond-golden spikey hair, bangs jaw-length that framed his face that let his bright blue eyes stand out more, but he wears grey high-collared-long sleeved shirt with an onyx-black short-sleeved-coat over that hid his storage seals that are strapped around his right leg while his weapon storages are on his left leg. On his shoulders of his short-sleeved-coat and at the center of his back is the orange whirlpool crest of the Uzumaki clan. He wears then black pants with black sandals. Around his lower arm he wears black arm guards and around his waist he wears a grey-rope belt that held his sheath for his weapons, Kakashi guessed.

So this is the son of Minato-sensei and Kushina. He thought, as he looked a bit longer at his new ward before turning his attention to the entirety of the group.

Kakashi clapped his hands once to gain their attention as Naruto took seat next to Sakura that looked at him with a withering glare. "Well, let's start with the introduction and from there on we will see what we will do next…"

"…" Everyone stayed mute as a few seconds passed and Sakura raised her hand in annoying. "Hey, hey Sensei, why won't you start with introducing yourself?"

"Hmm… well, alright. My name is Kakashi Hatake and from today on I am your sensei, so you might call me Kakashi-sensei. My hobbies are …a secret, and my interests are …also a secret. Now it's your turn pinky."

The new Team Seven looked dumbfounded at their sensei while Kakashi and Kitsune grinned inwardly. "I like him gaki."

Sakura's cheeks swelled up when he called her pinky. "My name is not pinky, it is Haruno Sakura and that was not the right way to introduce yourself to us. We don't known a thing about you except your name!"

"That's your problem Sakura-san, now continue. I don't have the whole day as I have more things to do." Kakashi said with weight in his voice. Yep a lot of things to do that involve reading a certain orange book, hehehe!

"Okay sensei, my name is Haruno Sakura and I like …" she glanced to Sasuke, "And my future is like this …" again she glanced at the prodigy. "And I hate Naruto." Sending said boy a hateful glare.

Oh kami, a fan girl that loves the remaining Uchiha and hates the other, why me Hokage!

"Alright, next!" Kakashi called as he looked at Uchiha Sasuke.

"Name is Uchiha Sasuke and have only one ambition," Kakashi raised an eyebrow at that statement. "Killing a certain person and nothing more."

And here we have an avenger; I can guess at who his target is...

"Last one, but not least." Kakashi said turning to the last one that smiled brightly at him.

"My name is Uzumaki Naruto," …Just what I thought, an Uzumaki. "I want to become the best shinobi to the best of my ability in order to protect my precious people here in Konohagakure no Sato! Also I want to make my parents and the Hokages proud with my achievements."

Ah, someone with serious ambition and an honorable goal, just like you Minato-sensei. I see much of you in your son; I promise, I will protect him to the best of my ability.

"A noble goal Naruto. You have a long road to go if you want to achieve that goal and protect your precious people." Kakashi said with an eye smile. "Now that this is done, I expect you, all three at seven in the morning at training field three also I forbid you to eat in the morning! Ciao." With a poof Kakashi said goodbye and the three members of Team Seven looked at the empty spot where their instructor was and Naruto walked to the edge and jumped off.

"Naruto!" Sakura yelled as she ran to the edge to see where Naruto had fallen, but to her astonishment, there was no Naruto in sight.

While Team Seven was giving introductions at the roof of the Academy, Naruto was eating joyful his thirty bowl of ramen at Ichiraku's place when the familiar feeling of his clones experience merged with his. "Haaaaa, nothing clears a day without Ichiraku's ramen. Ayame-neechan more ramen, please!"

"Hai, Naruto-kun." Ayame called from out of the kitchen as she smiled brightly at her little brother figure.


The Hokage watched through his crystal ball how Naruto had escaped the introductions session of Kakashi Hatake by using one of his clones while the original is eating ramen at his favorite restaurant. That boy is too cunning for his own good. And if those expressions of Kakashi have any meaning then I will have to expect him here soon in my office…

Sarutobi just came to that conclusion when the door opened and Kakashi Hatake entered the office with a thoughtful face. "Kakashi what can I do for you?"

"Hokage-sama, I hope that you can inform me with some information about my new team." Kakashi said with an all business voice that left no room for quip markings.

Sarutobi looked with an even firm face at his best shinobi. He weighed the chance of the outcome of keeping it a secret or telling the truth about a certain member. He knows if he would tell the truth, Kakashi would do everything what's in his strength to protect that boy, no matter the cost. "I will inform you with some certain information, only if you promise me something, do I have your word?"

Kakashi had a thoughtful look when he listened a list off in his head of what his promise would entail. "And what must I promise, Hokage-sama?"

At least he thought about my request, "I want you to promise me, that you keep this information to yourself and never, and I mean serious never tell this to anyone outside us two. You will train them equal, no special treatment to Naruto, Sasuke or Sakura and last don't tell Naruto."

"I will keep those promises, except the last one. Naruto have the right to know about his parents! You can't keep this away from him." Kakashi hissed while Sarutobi watched him calmly.

"And why can't you keep that certain information to yourself? Is it because he is the son of your sensei or is it out of guilt that you could not protect her, and do you thinks that it is your fault? Well?" Sarutobi argued, his eyes lost all warmth as it stared coldly at Kakashi. When Kakashi stayed mute, Sarutobi sighed. "Kakashi, what happened in the past, stays in the past. There's nothing what you can do to chance it and at why I want to keep it away from Naruto. For that I have a very good reason to keep it a secret. Did you know that this falls under a SS-secret that, if it ever comes out in the light that there's a punishment of dead."

"If you have a dammit good reason to keep this a secret, then at least tell me a part of it so I can do my job of protecting him!" Kakashi voice rose, feeling the guilt eating him away.

"Very well Kakashi, I will reveal a tip of the veil." Kakashi held his breath when Sarutobi said the following words. "Iwagakure had never forgotten or forgiven Yondaime Hokage and if they would ever made the link between Naruto and Yondaime…"

"I-I u-understand hokage-sama," Kakashi murmured, as he looked straight at the Sandaime Hokage's eyes, searching for any deception, but only found hard founded certainty.

"Yes it is," The Hokage nodded.

Kakashi stared with wide eyes at his leader and friend. "Sir, we must immediately train him, if they come after him. I won't let him…" Kakashi stopped spouting when he saw a smirk coming up his Hokage's face.

"I am afraid that someone else have taken that responsibility. No I will not tell who it is and what he can do, but I am certain that he will surprise you tomorrow at the training ground three." Sarutobi said fast to interrupt his friend. "I expect an detailed report, you can go."

Kakashi left the Hokage office as he stared into nothing, wondering what would happen tomorrow. Maybe I would crawl early in tonight so I would not faint tomorrow …yes that might sound wise.

Sarutobi watched Kakashi-sensei leave his office and laughed merrily. Too bad Kakashi, Naruto already known about his heritage and the danger that it entailed, but it was fun watching you sweeting and this will help the both of you to stay a bit into the shadows and especially for Naruto.


The next day Naruto woke up from chirping from out the window. Hmmm. The sun is already clear in the sky… wait! Shiiiiiit!

"Kage Bunshin no jutsu!" A clone appeared, "Morning boss!"

"Clone, rush towards training ground three and wait until I have eaten and then I use kawarimi to switch places with you, now go!" Naruto ordered his clone as he rushed into his cloth and ran down the roofs towards Ichiraku ramen restaurant.

"Stupid boss," the clone said while running towards his destination. Once arrived on training field three he saw his two co-members of Team Seven sitting near three stumps.

"You're late," Sasuke spat as he watched Naruto walking pass him.

Naruto just ignored him as he walked towards the water and began to throw stones into the river and around the field. Hmm… I can't use that jutsu yet, but I think I will go for the best next.

"What are you doing dobe?" Sasuke snarled as he watched the dead last throwing stones into the river and field.

"Killing time," Naruto said as he walked to the edge of the forest.

"Where're you going, deadbeat." Sakura joined her crush. Naruto only smirked, "A message, like the last time…"

"Pervert!"

Naruto laughed while he vanished through the threes. Soon out of view he switched place with his clone that vanished in smoke. Alright Kitsune-san, ready to rock?

"Ready when you are," Came his reply. Meanwhile Kakashi watched his soon to be new team members from out of the trees. He looked at Naruto that started to throw stones into the water and field. Possible trying to kill some time before I show up.

His attention turned towards his other two members, one Uchiha Sasuke that tried to goad Naruto while Sakura joined him while she must actually stop her crush. They will never exceed my expectations. Oh wait! What's Naruto going to do?

Kakashi watched Naruto go and then say something to Sakura that shouted loudly pervert. Oh, wow. He needed only to use the bathroom and she immediately called him a pervert, well it is my turn to show up.

Poof! Kakashi showed up in a column of smoke. With an eye smile he looked at them, "Where's Naruto?"

"Don't talk me about that pervert!" Sakura said in disgust while Kakashi rolled his eyes inwardly.

"What did he do?" Kakashi asked in amusing while he knew that he probably used the forest as a bathroom.

Sakura looked now more disgusted as she found that she must answer her sensei. "Using the freaking forest as his personal bathroom."

"Okay, let's wait for him so I can start explaining."

"Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto called as he ran towards them and tripped over his feet and slammed into Sakura and together they stumbled to the ground. Naruto laid on top of her, her shirt was a bit crawled up and one of his hands found himself under her shirt and held something round, firm and soft while his knee was between her leg.

"Pervert!" Sakura shouted with a flushed face as she made a fist that rushed towards Naruto face and hit him, Naruto flew through the air and landed in a heap and skipped towards the edge of the forest and vanished though the trees. None of them saw that with each skip, Naruto kicked some stones towards the group that lay askew around them. "You defiled me before Sasuke-kun could claim me!"

"Sorry Sakura-chan," Naruto apologized from out of the trees while holding his face as he walked back into view.

Kakashi sighed and interrupted the upcoming shouting match. "Guys, that's enough. Now that we are all here, I can starting explaining the rules." He pulled two bells from out of his pocket.

"These are bells…" Kakashi started as he smirked from under his mask. "And they will decide if you will return to the Academy or become a true shinobi."

"What do you mean?" Sasuke demanded, "Does this mean, that those that doesn't gain a bell will return to the Academy?"

Kakashi smirk widened from under his mask, "Yes it does that, you have two hours and if none of you get one, you all will return to the Academy."

"I would hide if I was you," immediately Sakura and Sasuke jumped into the forest while Naruto stayed where he was. "Why are you not hiding gaki?"

Naruto smirked, "Ready to lose one of your bells, Kakashi-sensei?"

What's that dead last thinking to stand in front of him while he ordered us to hide. Sakura thought while she looked from out of her hiding spot, but when Naruto started to make his move, she was astounded at the battle in front of her.

Sasuke stood on top of a branch, analyzing Kakashi for any weaknesses, "That dobe will drag us down," he murmured when he watched Naruto go into action.

Kakashi looked closely at Naruto when he suddenly vanished and he felt the boy, Naruto behind him and lashed backwards …hitting nothing, "Huh, I was sure he w-" he was interrupted when he appeared into his blind spot and lashed out towards the bells.

Oh no, he thought when he saw the fingers of Naruto surrounding the bell and jumped away and held Naruto in his view when he suddenly vanished and appeared behind him. What the hack, he moves so fast! Almost as fast as sensei!

"How come you're so fast, gaki?" Kakashi asked while blocking Naruto attacks, he hadn't even time to read his favorite book. That boy was too fast when he suddenly appeared behind him again and this time he saw the hand seal of the snake. No way! Did he train that much so it cost him only one hand seal to activate a jutsu. But which jutsu is it?

Naruto laughed, "A true shinobi will not reveal his secrets or else it can be used against him."

"A good answer," Kakashi praised the boy while starting to look closer to see any hint at how the boy gained such speed while blocking his attacks and attempts of stealing bells. It seems, each time he is close, he is in my blind spot or behind me and he lead me into a trap, but what kind…

Kakashi was interrupted in finding a solution of how Naruto attacked him when a foot hit his face. Kakashi flew through the air and in mid air he whirled and landed as a cat on his feet in a circle of stones while again Naruto appeared behind him when he suddenly found the answer.

Kakashi laughed at the brilliantly the boy came with. He never would have thought of using that jutsu like this and he respected the boy enough to not use it against him or tell anyone else. "It seems you had found out the solution of my tactic, if that laugh held any meaning?"

"I did, and it is brilliant! So my apologies." Kakashi apologized while his speed increased and he lashed out with his leg, hitting Naruto in his back, sending him towards the river where he sunk face first into the cold, wet water. "Now let's find the other members."

That fool tried to hard, but he gave me some insight at how Kakashi fought and that I can use to gains the bells. The prodigy thought and his hands traveled to his pockets for his shurikens when…

Sakura was shocked, was this Naruto, the dead last in the Academy? That can't be!

He stepped away from the edge of the river and eye smiled when he pulled out his book Icha Icha Paradise. Never thought of using kawarimi like that, but let's see, where was I? He thought as he walked away while reading his book. Perverted giggles escaped his mask as his eyes roofed over the texts. Hmm… good, good and wow! I wonder if A-

"Kakashi-sensei," Kakashi turned around as a shadow loomed over him. He looked up into the sky and his eyes widened. "No way!"


While Kakashi and Naruto fought for the bells, two individual were having a meeting in Konohagakure at the Hokage tower. The Hokage walked with his guest through the tower to a lower level for some hot munt tea.

The Hokage walked through the halls as he leads the person to one of the tea rooms that he sometime uses to speak about students. "How can I help you, Iruka-sensei?"

Iruka-sensei watched the Hokage that calmly walked through the halls and gulped. "I had a question about Naruto's sensei. I wondered if those rumors are true about his former teams?"

Sarutobi eyes twinkled with mirth while holding a calming face, "The teams that he leads, yes?"

"Hai," Iruka said while Sarutobi chuckled merrily. "Here Iruka-sensei," Sarutobi handed Iruka a notebook that took it in his hands; he opened the notebook and his jaw dropped in astonishment.

"Don't tell me that this is true?" Iruka said in astonishment.

Sarutobi entered a room and took seat behind a low desk and an Anbu arrived to place to mugs of munt tea. "I am afraid, that it is all true."

"Why? How can Naruto learn from him…" Iruka started when Sarutobi halted him.

"Iruka, please believe in Naruto. He's much stronger than you believe."


"Kakashi-sensei," Kakashi looked up and his one eye widened drastic when he saw seven Naruto leaping through the air, each holding shurikens in their hands that gleamed into the sunlight. "Naruto, illusions will not work against me,"

The Naruto clones smirked, "But we are no mere illusions Kakashi-sensei." That's when they threw a handful of shurikens towards him, "What!" was all that Kakashi could say before he leaped out of their deadly path and he was glad that the place was empty of stones. Now I don't have to worry about kawarimi, but what he just did now was no mere genin jutsu. Those were Kage Bunshin no jutsu, where did he learn that?

Kakashi was now surrounded by the Naruto clones and knew that he had only one option… he made hand seals for a kawarimi of his own when shurikens flew out of the forest straight at him and Naruto clones. One by one the clones poof out of existence and so did Kakashi that revealed to be a log.

"So it seems that Naruto had followed my instructions of hiding from the very beginning and had sends one of his clones to gain information about me. Also when I was watching him from out of the tree, he was preparing for this brilliant tactic by throwing stones all around the field, so that he could use it when he fought me, Naruto you did surprise me."

Sakura watched the entire fight with wide eyes, "How can that dead last be so strong? He never showed this on our Academy days. He just fought single handedly our sensei." She ran through the trees as she climbed a hill, "I will not lose against Naruto, I and Sasuke-kun will not be send back to the Academy." That's when her sensei came in view down the hill. Kakashi is reading a book and seems to have only attention for said book.

"Yes, this will be easy!" Sakura prepared to jump down when suddenly a voice from her right was heard. "Yo!"

"Shinobi rule number one never let an enemy sneak up to you."

"What?" was all that she could say when suddenly she screamed.

There out of the forest Sasuke stumbled out, his legs and arms were bend in the wrong direction, broken. His body was covered with cuts and kunais as his eyes were covered with his hitai. "S-sakura… sak…" he fell down death!

"Kyaaaaaaa!" Sakura fell unconscious down.

"Eh… Maybe I overdid it a bit," Kakashi murmured when he jumped away in search for the last member.

Sasuke heard the feminist scream, "That's Sakura's voice,"

"Indeed it was, so what are you going to do, Uchiha prodigy?" said Kakashi as he leaned against a tree.

Sasuke smirked, "I am nothing like them, I am an Uchiha and much better than them combined."

Kakashi eye smiled at him, "Sure, just a moment ago, Sakura fell into genjutsu, Hell viewing technique! She failed in that way, Naruto is the only one that might become a genin and you must let go of your hatred towards your brother."

Sasuke calming expression turned to an ugly rage when his brother was mentioned. His hands flashed through the hand seals "Katon: Gokakyu no jutsu!"

He brought his hand to his lips and blew. A giant fireball erupted out of his hand and surged towards Kakashi. So the Uchiha prodigy is living up to his name, but...

The giant fireball hit the place were Kakashi stood and an explosion erupted. "Heh, if that was a jonin, then I am deep disappointed in him."

Suddenly a hand came out of the ground and gripped his ankle, "Doton: Shinju Zanshu no jutsu!"

With a scream Sasuke was pulled into the ground, a mere moment later Kakashi appeared next to him. "And I am disappointed into the Uchiha prodigy. You let your anger roam free and that will bring only misery to you."

"Shit!" Sasuke spat as Kakashi left him in the ground.

A mere moment later he heard rustle of leafs and Sakura appeared. "Sakura!" Sasuke exclaimed, delighted that at least someone is there to help him out of this position.

"Sasuke-kun," Sakura stopped in her track and turned her head, when he came in view she whispered, "No, not again. This time he is beheaded!" and promptly she fell unconscious.

Naruto was sitting on the stone monument, picking up the food. "Itadakimasu!" he yelled when suddenly a voice halted him. "Naruto, you cheater!" came the voice of Sakura from out of the forest that was followed by Sasuke that glared at him.

Poof! Kakashi appeared, she's right Naruto… when suddenly Naruto disappeared in smoke and Kakashi found he's bound to the monument. Out of the forest came Naruto with a smirk. "I saw you making the trap when I analyzed you and look at this…" Naruto held the bells in his hands and threw the two of them to his teammates.

"You can let us fail or let us pass, but known this, that a real team is made out of teammates that works together and that need time to achieve that teamwork."

Kakashi nodded from his place and thought long and hard.

Iruka looked in astonishment at the pages in the notebook. "Hokage-sama, Kakashi-sensei have let all his teams fail his tests! How can Naruto turn into a shinobi if there is a 60% failing rate?"

The Hokage sighed to his underling, "Iruka-sensei, I believe that Kakashi made the right choice, have faith in him."

Kakashi took a deep breath, "First Sakura, you have a long way to go, if you want to become a fine kunoichi and you need the widen your horizon than only Uchiha Sasuke. Uchiha Sasuke, you need to let go of your hatred and find friends and for Naruto, I have nothing to say."

"Hn… the dobe is so bad that he have nothing to say to you," Sasuke said haughtily. "But if we want to turn into fine shinobi then I must help you into one so I can become a shinobi in order to kill that person."

Kakashi sighed, he hopes so that he made the right decision.

"You all…"


Hey, thank you all for reading my story, I hope you enjoyed it.

First to make some things straight, Naruto have hid his whiskers mark and is a carbon copy of Minato Namikaze. I know I haven't placed it anywhere the story, so my apologies. I believe and so shows my story, Naruto is very OC, maybe I would place this somewhere that people will see immediatly, but this is an Fanfiction and writers are gods.

So far I have followed the canon pretty well and I see canon naruto as an idiot and that he is, but when in the heat of the battle when all is almost lost he use his brain, and in my story i show a smart, tactican Naruto. So to people that yells he is overpowered, I am sorry to dissapoint you, but he is not!

Kage Bunshin no jutsu is a B-rank jutsu and Kawarimi is a E-rank jutsu and in combination he can outwit as long if they not find out how he works as you could see that kakashi found out while sparring. That was it and I hope to see you next time in the lands of the waves!

p.s Sakura and Sasuke will be a pair, but just like canon very late!

p.s.s Yep canon naruto was dumb with girls, I hope I can make it better for our hero!
