Lets see don't own Naruto and I don't own Spiderman.
FYI This story is originally only going to do the mission to wave arc before stopping for a while and depending on how popular or sucessful it is will determine whether or not I continue beyond that. That and I've only ever watched up to the VOTE battle.
The trio of newly minted ninja met early the next day, eager to go and prove themselves against the unknown masked man. The hungry trio waited for nearly six hours before Kakshi appeared with a puff. "You're late!" Naruto and Sakura yelled at him, while Peter merely glared at him in anger and annoyance.
"I'm sorry, but I came across a black cat and had to turn back and come again." The ninja said in a light voice.
Peter snorted at the man. "Right," he drawled, "which is why you've spent the last couple hours watching us, and before that you were wandering all over the forest as well right?"
"Okay you caught me, but how did you notice me, you don't have a Byakugan?" Kakashi said, while checking the boy over in surprise. This was not what he had been expecting when he first met the group. He knew that the boy was better off and better trained than the other two, but he had thought the boy was still just a basic graduate with just a few physical enhancements due to a bloodline from what the Hokage and his Abrurame minders had told him. Added in with what he had learned from his watching them sparring against each other yesterday. Something that had made him want to cancel his test and go to an actual mission since they were willing to work together. Instead he was just going to see if they could work together under stress as well as they could when things were calm. Perhaps the boy had potential as a sensor type, he would have to watch and see if the boy had any other surprises during today's test.
"You feel like telling us any of your secrets today?" Peter countered to the other man innocently.
"Fair enough." Kakshi said a nod of respect towards the masked boy before him.
"So what were you doing if you were just hiding then sensei?" Naruto questioned the elder ninja.
"I was merely preparing the area for the test, and watching to see how you all interacted with each other." Kakashi returned to him casually. "Are you ready?" He questioned them, as he set down a clock and two lunches on a nearby stump. He then set the clock then turned to look at the group. "Alright let's get started then." The man said cheerfully. "Today's mission is to get one of these bells from me. He said as he displayed a pair of bells towards the young ninja. "You get a bell, you get to eat. Fail and I tie you to the post and then eat lunch in front of you."
"And the reason that there's only two bells?" Sakura asked nervously.
"Peter said it very nicely the other day," Kakashi returned to her, "3 ninja enter 2 ninja leave. Since there's only two, at least one will have to be tied to the log. That person will fail since they failed to complete the mission. The person will go back to the academy. It might just be one, or all three. You can use your ninja tools though. Because you won't be able to get the bells unless you come at me with intent kill me."
"But that's too dangerous sensei," Sakura objected to the man.
"Yeah you couldn't even dodge that eraser," Naruto reminded the man with a chuckle.
"Those with the lowest skill range usually make the most noise." Kakashi returned to them. "Considering that I'm not dealing with the top of the class I think that I should be alright though. Unless there's more to your scores than you told us." He mocked the trio.
"What, you think because we're not Saskue that we don't stand a chance?" Naruto growled, as his pride was injured at the suggestion of him not being good enough in comparison to the Uchiha heir. "I'm going to beat you and your stupid test because I'm going to be Hokage one day. Believe It!"
"Yes, yes, we heard you the last time you said that." Kakashi said unimpressed with the dramatic outburst. "We'll start when I say start," the man said, pointedly ignoring the question. This proved to be too much for the annoyed and impatient Naruto who ignored the man's commands as he lunged forward with a drawn blade. Kakashi flickered out of view and appeared behind Naruto, holding the blonde's own blade against him. The others moved back in shock and surprise at the speed the man had just shown them.
"Can't blame him for trying, besides have you ever seen a real fair fight?" Peter questioned as he drew his own blade out ready to help his friend out if need be. "It's what they teach us at the academy to try and take any advantage that we can when we can. That and that in a fight like you want there are no rules." Sakura nodded grimly as she drew her own kunai.
"Fair enough," Kakashi said as he releases Naruto, tossing the blonde towards his friend who moved to catch him. "Now that I know that you're in the right mood though." He looks the trio over for a moment. "Ready, start." The three gennin each leaped away disappearing from view.
Kakashi nodded as he saw that all the members of the team had disappeared into the forest. That was no small feat when you considered the bright colors that were Naruto and Sakura. He was surprised though when Naruto appeared seemingly out of nowhere to challenge the jonnin. Kakashi sighed as he retrieved his book angering the young ninja even more as he rushed the man. Naruto tried the direct assault first only to have Kakshi casually counter each and every one of his moves. The boy surprised Kakashi as he dodged the 1000 Years of Death taijutsu move. He twirled around trying to ram his fist into the face of the jonnin.
Kakashi countered this by grabbing the incoming arm and spun on his heel swinging the boy around, he then released his hold launching the blonde into a nearby lake. Rather than following up the attack the Jonnin sat upon the bank and continued reading his book. Naruto launched some throwing stars that the jonnin caught without even seeming to look up from his book. Naruto came out of the lake and re-launched his attack this time he activated his shadow clones who tried to swarm the man, but they never seemed to do more than catch the man off guard for a moment or two before he managed to counter them. Where 15 clones had stood soon Naruto was alone.
Peter watched silently as Naruto challenged the older ninja into battle and was soundly countered time and time again. It was as if the guy knew what his friend was going to do before he even did it, or had some sort of ability to sense attacks before they happened and he was doing it all with one eye and reading a book as well. For a moment his mind flashed to a figure dressed all in red holding a stick fighting off ninja. As soon as Peter focused on the image though the image was gone and all he had was the fleeting memory of a figure in red fighting ninjas. "What or who was that?" He wondered, this wasn't the first time that his mind had flashed to some unknown figure, but that had been one of the more clear garbled vision that he had ever received before. Shaking his head he refocused on the one sided fight. Naruto almost seemed to catch Kakashi a few times, but each time he almost had him the ninja countered or disappeared. The longer the fight went the more frustrated and sloppy Naruto became opening more and more holes in his defense. At this rate, Naruto would end up defeating himself unless his friend got a chance to calm himself down.
"Naruto, change it up!" Peter called out. The blonde nodded his head and disappeared while Peter leaped down to take his friend's place. "You'll have to excuse Naruto, he's a bit impulsive at times." The younger masked figure said from his crouched combat position.
"If you say so mini-me." The man said blandly as he focused more on his book than on the boy.
Peter eyed the older ninja with interest as he tried to figure out just what kind of move he would make and why the man had generated the image he did. The man seemed more intent on his book than in trying to do anything to him though, giving the younger ninja the time to study him. Peter shrugged and began moving toward him. Naruto had done a good job of testing the man for the other two members of the group. This guy had speed and a nearly uncanny ability to predict what Naruto would do before he did it. Naruto had come at him from virtually all angles and had come up with nothing, the closest his friend had gotten was when he swarmed the ninja. Not exactly a tactic that he and Sakura could copy very well. To add to the insult, the man had only used taijutsu and a single replacement jutsu in comparison to Naruto's advanced jutsu that was a restricted village secret combat technique. He would need to do something to surprise the guy. Or maybe all he had to do was distract the guy. What could distract a guy like this though enough that he would make a mistake though? He had one idea, he only hoped that it would work.
"So tell me one eye, do you know its rude to ignore people?" Peter questioned as he moved in. "I mean seriously, for being such an advanced ninja they don't teach you much in the manners department now do they?" He tried to clothesline the man who merely bounced away as he kept up the chatter.
"Oh I suppose so, but it really is such an interesting book." Kakashi returned to the boy.
"That maybe," Peter returned, not stopping for a second as he took to the air landed on one hand and tried to kick the man in the face. "But do you really expect for people to respect you if you keep doing that? I mean sure, maybe you're trying to give us an edge by splitting your attention and all but still it is pretty rude. Considering some of the people I grew up with that's saying something."
Kakshi effortlessly moved out of the way as he backpedaled away from the gymnastic combat style that the boy employed. "I suppose it is, but I really want to find out what happens next." He explained to the boy that was attacking him in a fluid method that seemed to build from one attack to the next while keeping a steady stream of talking going.
"Right," Peter said as he launched himself in a tackle that Kakshi just leaped over. The ninja was surprised though as Peter landed on his hands and launched himself upward with only taking time to push off. Spinning while moving he managed to clip the ninja knocking him off balance as his foot made a glancing blow with his leg. "As we like to say on the playground Kakashi sensei, tag your it." The boy then twisted his body and reached Kakashi was forced to use his free hand to catch the arm that had tried to reach for the bells and tossed him back towards the ground. Peter twisted and landed in a splayed out position waiting for his sensei to make the next move.
As the older ninja sailed through the air, he reached out and caught the branch of a nearby tree and swung onto a branch and look down at the waiting figure. The ninja winced as he felt where the glancing blow had connected. He covertly ran his hand over the bandages that covered his legs to check the shin guard that covered his hit leg. He was somewhat surprised as he felt a new shape in the armor. Despite it only being a glancing blow, the boy had managed to dent metal plate. The boy it seemed had even more surprises than he had originally been led to believe. Perhaps he should take him a bit more seriously. "Very well, you want me to take a shot at you this time I think I can arrange for that." The man said as he leaped down from the tree, he observed the boy that he was fight ready despite having been tossed from a great distance. He tossed several smoke bombs into the ground as he prepared his next attack. When the smoke cleared the ninja was gone.
Peter tensed as he realized that he probably wouldn't be able to see from where the attack would come from. He spun on his heel expecting to see the man coming at him from behind or above there was nothing. Heck there was no trace of the guy anywhere, no matter where he looked. Peter suddenly felt his spider sense begin to scream at him and he had already leaped into the air before he knew what he was doing.
"Head hunter jutsu!" Kakashi cried as his arms reached out of the dirt, but his fingers just scraped the bottom of Peter's boot, before it seemed to go back down. A moment later Kakashi appeared next to hole with a sigh of disappointment. "Well that could have gone better." He complained as he looked down at the hole where a young ninja was supposed to be planted up to his head.
Peter's leap had him grabbing a tree branch and pulling himself up. "Okay that was cool," he admitted, "if we manage to pass this insane test of yours do you think that you could consider teaching me that one?" The Abrurame Clan boy questioned eagerly as he eyed the hole that was about the size of a person.
"I'll consider it." Kakashi agreed with the boy. "If you pass that is."
"Hey Peter, let's see what Sakura-Chan can do!" Naruto cried from across the way. Peter turned to look at his friend who was standing beside Sakura.
Using the moment of distraction that Naruto had unwittingly created in which Peter had turned to look towards his teammates Kakashi struck out with ninja wire. Several near invisible strands burst out of his gloves. Peter dodged the blows and lunged at the ninja in joy. "Gotchya now sensei!" He said as his fist lashed out while the ninja was busy trying to release the wires. "And you thought that I was in your face before." He joked as his fists connected with the jonnin. Instead of connecting with a masked figure though they struck a log that the ninja had used for a substitution. When Peter's fist connected it tossed the log several feet away.
"Well that's new." Kakashi said from where he was leaning against a boulder, and watching Peter not even seem to be rubbing his hand in pain. "I think you just set a record for how far a gennin can punch a log. I know several others that can make it much farther, but it was still impressive for your age. I'll try to avoid getting hit by you."
Peter nodded in understanding, he then did something that no one saw and several white ropes snagged the flying log and he swung it at Kakashi. The ninja froze in surprise at the unexpected attack for a moment before he blurred out of the way allowing the log shatter against the rock. Peter looked reluctant, but finally stepped back to allow the pinkette a chance at the man. "Alright Sakura, maybe you can do something against this guy. If not, I have a few plans to try." He assured the girl.
"Yeah go for it Sakura-Chan!" Naruto said pumping his hand into the air. "Show this crazy guy what happens when he messes with us!"
Peter turned to look at his friend. "Naruto I have an idea, distraction 4."
The boy looked confused for a moment before he grinned. "Yeah it would serve him right for trying to stick his hand there anyways." Naruto returned before he disappeared.
"Do your best," Peter told Sakura before he disappeared as well.
The girl nodded as she drew several kunai in preparation for her upcoming fight. "Alright sensei, I guess it's my turn now." The girl nervously replied as she gripped her weapons tightly.
"Yes, the only difference is it's just you and me." Kakashi said as he waved her onward. "Peter and Naruto had the benefit of having each other's back. You don't have anyone watching out for you though." The ninja pointed out to the girl mockingly. "What are you going to do when it becomes too much for you?" The girl swallowed nervously and then began launching her blades at the jonnin. Kakashi sighed as he drew his book back out and snagged the first of the blades out of the air. "Sakura, I told you that you have to come at me with the intent to kill. Peter and Naruto were going for severe injury which is better than you're doing right now." Kakshi admonished, as he casually blocked the incoming blades. "I would have thought someone with your scores would have understood that. I thought that with your big head you would have been able to retain that bit of information, maybe there's a reason that the Yamanaka girl was classed as the top Kunochi instead of you." The ninja goaded the girl.
"Forehead, Ino-Pig?" The girl said, before her eyes changed before Kakashi's eyes instead of the green from moments earlier they were now glowing white areas. This was not the pale purple of the Hyūga clan but a glowing white that covered the entirety of both of her eyes. Snarling the girl ran at the man and began swinging her fists at him. The girl had also tapped into a large amount of killer intent as well. Kakashi was almost impressed with what he was seeing. So young and already able to summon killing intent, not very much but it was still something. "I am better than Ino-Pig!" The girl practically shouted as she continued swing at the man. "And I will beat her in the race for love!" She declared, as she drove her fist into the tree behind him.
"Are you sure, look at that?" Kakashi questioned, as he looked her in the eyes and then pointed to something behind them.
The girl spun around and she saw something that made her chest freeze in pain. Ino was currently kissing Saskue. Ino broke off her kiss with the dark haired boy and shot Sakura a smirk. "Oh hey Forehead, I guess I won after all." She said with a smirk before she shot the girl a superior smile sticking her tongue out at her. Sakura fell to her knees in shock and defeat at what she saw before her.
"No," Sakura said from her spot on the ground. "Saskue-Kun what about us?" She questioned desperately, as she looked at the Uchiha heir hopefully. "What about all that we could be? Just tell me what I need to change, and I promise that I'll do it." She declared as she was intent on proving her love to the dark haired boy.
The boy merely sneered at her. "I already told you, you're annoying." He then turned back around to kissing Ino.
The kunochi hung her head at this comment. "No," Sakura said as she began repeatedly slamming her fist into the ground "No, No, NO!"
Kakashi shook his head as he ignored the outburst from the girl as he looked at the tree behind him and saw the dents in the wood. Had the girl connected with one of those he would have been in extreme pain. He wondered how much longer the timer had; the way he figured it only had a few more minutes. Peter and Naruto were working well as a team while Sakura had yet to show any real teamwork inclinations. It was a shame since if the girl could just figure out the need for teamwork then he could pass all of them.
"Sakura-Chan!" Naruto said as he appeared next to the girl trying to help her. He turned to glare at the man. "What did you do to Sakura-Chan?" The boy asked with narrowed eyes.
"I merely showed her something that she didn't want accept." Kakashi said indifferent to the blonde's anger or the pinkette's outburst.
"Naruto, get Sakura back with us, I'll deal with him." Peter said as he nodded toward the ninja.
"Right," Naruto said as he began trying to get her to snap out of whatever troubles that she was having.
"Maybe you should try a kiss," Kakashi teased the blonde boy.
"Yo sensei eyes on me!" Peter said as he began swinging his arms at the jonnin. "I guess I should really say eye. Besides what would you know about romance? I'm sure any romance that comes near you comes into that big blind spot of yours." Kakashi dodged the arms and the small spikes that were connected to the limbs. "So I was thinking," Peter said as he moved forward, "that you seem to be way to comfortable with the way this fight is going that we might need to change the rules on you before we get ourselves hurt."
"And how do you plan on doing that exactly?" Kakashi asked in his usual bored manner, as he deftly moved out of the way as the two arms slammed over where he had been a moment ago.
"By changing the terrain," Peter returned as he flipped into the trees and began running overhead of the man and throwing kunai at the ninja.
"If you'd rather have a longer fall that's fine with me." Kakashi said as he flickered away into the trees and reappeared over Peter's head.
Peter grinned as he bounced back and forth between the tree in leaps and bounds till he was facing the man. "Impressive, not many gennin can move that fast or are that agile." The masked figure congratulated him.
Peter bit back a curse as he realized that the experienced ninja had humored his changing the terrain so that he could get a better idea as to what it was that he could do. Not bothering to worry about his annoyance with himself he moved forward.
"You seem to have some skill," Kakashi noted, "between yourself and Naruto you have a more than adequate personal skills, but it takes a lot more than that to be a Leaf Shinobi." He warned the boy before him.
"We'll have to see if we can up our game then." Peter said as he made an unknown hand sign at the Jonnin. Kakashi was surprised when an odd substance spat out of his wrist and struck him in the face. The odd substance only partially covered his eye. That was going to make the fight all the more difficult it seemed. He had to admit that the change of terrain did seem to give Peter a better fighting ground as the young man either bounced or swung from branch to branch as if he had grown up doing such things. Add in his now partial blindness thanks to the web goop, he might for the first time actually be in trouble. He grunted as he felt a foot connect with his stomach sending him flying out of the trees and into the trunk of another. He saw Peter land on the tree and like a spider begin crawling at a rate that might be faster than tree climbing or walking. When the boy got close enough, he faked him out and slammed his bracer into the tree driving the sharpened tips into the tree before leaping from the tree and landing back on the ground. As much as he would like to continue testing Peter's combat skills in the air he needed to give Naruto and Sakura all the chances that they could, and they couldn't very well do that if he and Peter were sailing around in the tree tops.
"Naruto, Sakura now!" Peter shouted out. Kakashi looked up as he saw the two ninja appear out of the brush wielding new weapons. His eyes widened in surprise as he realized what it was that they had planned as their eyes darted from him to the only thing he had in his hands. "You wouldn't dare..." was all he managed to get out before they began pitching water balloons at his hand. The ninja was forced to keep moving for fear that his precious book might get wet. He couldn't decide if he was furious at what they were doing or secretly impressed at what they were managing. He then watched Naruto grab two balloons and then use the shadow clone jutsu. "Not good," he muttered as he saw the ninja start doling balloons out amongst themselves.
"Water Balloon barrage!" Was the echoing cry, as balloons began homing in on him. Kakashi leaped into the air to dodge the attack only to look up to see a net filled with water balloons sailing towards him. Perhaps he should have treated them with a bit more respect, he thought as he was struck from below and above with water balloons that got water all over him and his precious book.
The drenched ninja shook the water off himself and decided that it was time to end this he didn't know why the alarm hadn't gone off yet but it was time to finish this. Besides he needed the chance to see if there was any chance that his book was salvageable. He looked at the book and winced as he already saw that the pages were trying to curl up. The damage it seemed was extensive.
"Alright, you now have my undivided attention." Kakashi said as he pocketed the book and turned to glare at the trio in annoyance. The three ninja moved to attack, and Kakshi observed each of their styles with interest. First there was Naruto, he lacked the planning and well thought out movements of his father, instead he had a more brawler style combat stance. It was a good style when one was in street fights or fighting numerous opponents, but against a single ninja it had dubious uses as a well-trained ninja could break through the weak defense that this style often used. 'Then again, one had to figure out which one was the real Naruto too,' he thought as he sliced through several shadow clones. The Parker orphan, ward to the Abrurame Clan was moving with a much more fluid grace similar to some of the beast style taijutsu that some clans used. He was either in a crouched position or slinging himself through the air with a grace and agility that he had rarely seen. It was like he had combined the feral movements of the Inuzuka style along with the fluid and control of the Hyūga style. It made predicting him extremely difficult, as he never knew which method that the young man was going to revert to. Finally there was Sakura, her style was somewhat wooden, and was strictly academy with no imagination in her attacks or defense. Given time and more training she would likely loosen up and become more comfortable with fighting.
He waited and watched as the group made their move. Naruto summoned several shadow clones and Peter moved in with the group. Sakura on the other hand was keeping back, but was keeping him busy by tossing the occasional blade at him. He had to admit, that they seemed to have finally gotten the idea of the test at least for the moment. In time, they might actually qualify as a team.
The copycat ninja scowled as he saw Abrurame release more of his odd strands at him trying to cage him in. The jutsu had an odd hand seal that he had never seen before, and somehow the boy had made the odd substance a part of his combat style that allowed him to fire either ropes or a strange sludge like substance that could entrap a person. He had learned from his previous encounter against the boy not to allow the substance to touch, or he would likely be impaired in his fighting. He was being forced to fight at half his usual sight because of his reluctance to use the sharrigan against academy graduates. If they kept going at this rate though, he figured that he might actually have his first team. He really would have to thank the Hokage for sending this group to him, he had been afraid that they would make him the master of the Uchiha boy because of his potential. While the idea of training the last of Obito's clansman was appealing, he wanted someone who had his old teammate's heart as much as he had his eyes.
He dodged several of Sakura's blades, only to be tackled once again by Naruto's clones, he cast a quick replacement jutsu and appeared above them performing several strikes that made several of the clones disappear in clouds of smoke. He saw two more Naruto's coming at him with a third following up behind them. He threw some kunai at them and watched as they managed to duck under the blades. He wondered why they would duck when they were upon him the two lead ones were holding him down tightly to tightly as a matter of fact. Transformation jutsu, he realized. While the clones had blocked his view, Peter and Sakura had transformed their appearance to mimic Naruto to hide their attack. He had therefore been unprepared for Peter and Sakura's greater strength when they slammed into him.
Naruto had used his moment of surprise to obtain the bells from the side of their teacher. Peter not about to take a chance began spraying the ninja with his goop. Kakashi figured that they had earned the victory and allowed the ropes to bind him. As the boy held up the bells, they all heard the alarm near the lunches go off.
"Well that was close," Peter said.
"All right we did it!" Naruto shouted excitedly as he held the bells. "Here Sakura you can choose who gets these." He said tossing the bells towards the girl. Sakura looked shocked at this. The future of the two boys had just been placed in her hands. Naruto looked at her with a smile, while Peter merely looked at her silently. The girl looked at the bell before she reluctantly tossed a bell to each of them.
"What? But Sakura-Chan, why?" Naruto said in surprise as he held his bell in shock.
"Because the ninja core needs the two of you a lot more than it needs me." The girl explained to the pair of surprised ninja. "I have family you guys don't, this is what you guys need. Besides a ninja with a bloodline and a ninja that can use the shadow clone jutsu are more important than a kunochi that provides support." She admitted somewhat reluctantly.
"Very good Sakura," Kakashi said, "you showed a willingness to do what was good for the village and the team, not what you personally want." The ninja struggled into a sitting position. "I think that I can say with the utmost certainty that you all pass. It took a while for you three to get the idea of the real test."
"Real test?" A confused Naruto questioned. "Wasn't getting the bells the test though?" He asked dumbly as he looked at the bells.
"In part," Kakashi admitted, "but like I said before, you must look underneath the underneath."
"It was a test to see how we worked under pressure then." Peter guessed.
"In part, it was also to see how you worked as a unit." Kakashi explained to the young boy. "With having something to lose it made it more important for you to try your hardest. The three of you had to rise above what you wanted and work together as a team before any of you were able to succeed. Peter, you and Naruto are used to working together, and have made a habit out of it despite the protests of some. Sakura meanwhile is a new element into the group dynamic that you have, and needed some way to see if she would work with what you and Naruto could already do. As you saw, she makes a great support or distraction while you prepare for the next level. Sakura does need some work, but she does have the potential to join your dynamic extremely well. Once you let her in that is."
"Wow, that's a lot to take in." Sakura said as she sat down trying to wrap her mind around the multiple layers that the test had worked them over.
"Yes, now then Peter, if you could release me from this?" Kakashi pleaded, as he gestured to the silk rope like strands that were holding him in place.
"Heh, about that sensei," Peter said nervously, "there's not an easy way to dispel it, which is why I didn't web you to the ground."
"Then how do I get out of it?" Kakashi questioned him.
"Well you see it dissolves in about an hour, but till then you're stuck in that cocoon." Peter explained to the masked ninja.
"But my book!" kakashi said in despair, as he realized that after an hour any hopes he had of repairing his book would be ruined.
"Er yeah sorry about that sensei." Sakura said in embarrassment. "Maybe the Hokage will replace it if you tell him it was damaged because of a training accident." She tried hopefully.
"Not with Kurnai watching." Kakashi said morosely. As he morosely leaned his head back. "The three of you might as well go and get the lunch boxes though since we'll be here for a while it seems. If I'm stuck here then you three are as well."
"We could let Sakura try and cut you out," Peter suggested trying to sound friendly, "I'm sure that after that genjutsu of yours she would love a chance to cut you... out." The girl smiled, and her eyes seemed to glow at Peter's rather deliberate pause.
"Ah no, besides, this way will let me know more about your webbing as well." The man said nervously as he eyed the girl with dread. "Just go and get your lunches for now."
The three nodded as they ran off to get the lunches. The Hokage who had watched the test from his crystal ball jutsu chuckled as he heard the plight of one of his top ninja. That was indeed a funny side effect of the training ending. He wondered if Kakashi would realize that Peter had also used the time to fill the water balloons to add an extra 15 minutes to their test time. The boy was very inventive and tricky, and he could hardly wait to see what else he and Naruto could manage to come up with.
