Chapter Four; Genin and Team Six
Senju Uzumaki Naruto. He was twelve years old and today was the team selections for the Genin. Naruto stood at five foot three inches. His forehead protector was strapped to his forehead. His bangs framed his face down to his jaw just like his father.
He wore a body mesh suit with an orange t-shirt with the Konoha symbol, a black jacket with red stripes going down the arms. On his back was the red Uzumaki insignia and a while Senju insignia. He also had on long black ninja pants with black Ninja sandals. He still had the fingerless glove with the metal and Senju sign etched into it. His necklace was still there.
He had two ninja pouches on either leg by the knee cap. One had medical supplies such as bandages, antidote for poisons, poisons itself and syringes and what not. The other had Fuinjutsu items such as a scroll, ink, a brush, etc.
On both wrist had two seals, one in the form of Kunai and the other a Shiruken. He had quick access to endless Kunai and Shiruken. On his forearms had other seals. One with essentials for survival and the other jutsu scrolls to train.
On his back a katana with a thirty inch blade and a slight curve. The color of the blade was black and made out of Chakra metal. The hilt was ten inches and orange with some black. At the end of the hilt was to two thin pieces of rope holding two charms. A Senju clan sign and Uzumaki clan sign.
Naruto walked into the kitchen to see ramen on the table. No one was home. His mother was the Godaime for two weeks and his sister the head of the hospital.
Naruto ate his ramen and left without a word.
(Fifteen Minutes Later; Academy)
Naruto was the first one there. He sat and reclined in his seat.
'As of today I am a ninja'.
Naruto sighed as students came in one after one not saying a word to the 'Godaime's Genius' as they villagers would put it. All were there except Sakura and Ino.
Suddenly said two Kunoichi shut through the door.
"I won".
"No, I did".
"Nope forehead I won".
"Shut up pig, I won fair and square.
"Forehead".
"Pig".
"Shut up!", Naruto shouted silencing the two Sasuke fan girls.
They glared at Naruto and sat as Iruka walked in.
"Iruka-sensei, where is Mizuki-sensei?", Sakura screeched making Kiba and Naruto clutch their ears due to their advance hearing.
"During Tsunade-sama's inauguration he snuck into the Hokage tower and tried to steal a forbidden scroll but was stopped by Naruto", Iruka explained and some nodded while Sakura glared at Naruto.
"Anyway, as for teams…", teams one through five were called all of them being civilian children when, "Team Six, Senju Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Riri (Lily) and Hyuuga Pisu (Peace), your sensei is Yamata".
'The last Uchiha beside Sasuke since Itachi killed them and a side branch Hyuuga, might be interesting', Naruto thought as Iruka continued.
"Team seven is Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura and Sai, your sensei is Hatake Kakashi, team eight Inuzuka Kiba, Hyuuga Hinata and Aburame Shino, your sensei is Yuhi Kurenai and team nine is still in rotation so team ten is Nara Shikamaru, Yamanaka Ino and Akimichi, you sensei is Sarutobi Asuma", he finished, "your senseis will be here shortly", he left after that.
Ten minutes later three Jounin walked in. Team six, seve, eight and ten remained.
"Team six with me/Come on team eight/Hurry up team ten", said Yamata/Kurenai/Asuma as their Genin made their way over there.
"By the way, Sasuke, Sakura, Sai, you have a long wait, Kakashi is a man who will be late to his own funeral", Naruto said making the adults laughed and Naruto chuckle while the Genin looked confused.
"Let's go", Yamato told them.
(Half an Hour Later; Training Ground 13)
"Alright, first we will start with introductions, names, likes, dislikes, dreams and hobbies", Yamato said as he sat cross legged up in a tree. The Genin were on the ground looking up at him.
"Can you show us sensei?", Riri asked.
"Ok, I am Yamato, my likes are training, relaxing and I like the outdoors, my dislike are arrogant people, losing in cards against Kakashi-sempai, my dream is to be a great ninja and hobbies are training people and playing cards", he said happily. "Uchiha, you're up".
"I am Uchiha Riri, I like Dango, training and my village, I dislike my arrogant cousin who only tells me I'm useless and can't even activate my Sharingan, mean people, my dream is to activate my Sharingan and prove that I can be a great Kunoichi, my hobbies are training and studying".
"Hyuuga".
"I am Hyuuga Pisu, I like my cousins Hinata, Hanabi and green tea, like Riri-chan I dislike my arrogant cousin Neji who only rants on and on about fate, my dream is to prove that the side branch is just as good as the main branch in my clan and hobbies are playing with Hanabi-chan and training".
"Senju".
"I am Senju Uzumaki Naruto, I like training, ramen, my Kaa-chan, Nee-chan and Kakashi-Nii-san, I dislike arrogant assess who feel their better than any and every one and my dream is to take over my mother's job and become the Rokudaime Hokage as for hobbies, trainin, ramen, playing pranks and oh, did I say ramen".
"Okay, you guys aren't arrogant even though of your clan", Yamato said clearly impressed.
"Meet me here tomorrow at nine and don't eat breakfast", he said before disappearing in a swirl of leaves.
"You guys want to head out for some lunch to get to know each other better", Naruto suggested.
"Sure, but I might have to go home for some cash", Riri said.
"Don't worry about it, I'll pay, let's go, I know this great BBQ place".
"Okay".
They then followed Naruto to the Akimichi BBQ.
(Thirty Minutes Later; BBQ)
The entered to see all the teams eating but not in the same booth. They were broken up into their teams with their senseis.
They sat at their own booth in the middle of everyone. All eyes turned to them as Naruto sighed and called over a waiter. Just then Jiraiya entered and sat down beside Team six.
"Hey Gaki", Jiraiya said as he ordered.
"Hey Jiraiya-sensei", he said shocking most Genin.
"Jiraiya-sensei? Did he just say Jiraiya-sensei?", Kiba asked. Completely shocked that a Sannin thought Naruto.
"Yes I did. What of it?", Naruto asked.
"A Sannin trained you, not to mention your mum is one, I will go out with you any day of the weak, you might even be stronger that Sasuke-kun", Ino said and others watched her shocked and Sasuke glared.
"Sorry, not interested in fan girls", Naruto stated.
"Why not gaki? You might be a good character in my book with your legendary stamina and all", Jiraiya said making Naruto blush.
"You're not putting me in one of your books you old pervert", Naruto told him.
"How are you going to stop me?", Jiraiya asked.
Everyone watched as Naruto got an evil smirk and disappeared in a shunshin.
"Jiraiya-sama, you might one to start running", Kakashi pleaded the old super pervert. He wanted Jiraiya alive. Who else gonna right those damned orange books.
"No way, I'm not sc-", Jiraiya began but was silenced when Naruto reappeared with Tsunade.
"Naruto-kun, why did you bring me here?", she asked her son taking in the surroundings.
"Ero-sennin said he'd put me in one of his perverted books, then there was the time he made me read one during training".
Silence.
"HE DID WHAT!?", Tsunade yelled and turned to the old pervert that was glaring at Naruto.
"L-Let's be reasonable Tsunade", Jiraiya pleaded.
"Five second head start", she said and he was gone in the wind. Tsunade immediately ran after him.
"Naruto, I think that was uncalled for", Kakashi spoke to the laughing Naruto.
"What? After that old self-proclaimed super pervert ran off to peed on women in the middle of training…he deserved, it's going to show him not to peek on women, he might've already used every female in the village", Naruto pointed out which in turned caused a blushing Hinata and angry Kunoichi and civilians alike.
"Anyway, I am going to take my food to go, later Kakashi-Nii-san", Naruto said walking off.
"Kakashi, how does Naruto get a Sannin to train him?", Sasuke asked and Kakasi grunted, he knew it was going to come eventually.
"Jiraiya-sama is Naruto's Godfather and since he is a Sannin he can do whatever he wants, he's like a Kage without the title", Kakashi explained but it proved to be futile as he just got up and left.
"Sometime I really wonder why Itachi left that cock-sucker alive", Riri said causing Sakura and Ino to glare at her.
"He should've killed you", Sakura said angrily.
"I am female which means it is close to impossible to unlock my Sharingan, plus, Itachi loved me and don't say thing you might regret, a Shinobi is only as good as his tools, and looking at you, your tools need to be replace", said Riri before walking out leaving an angry Sakura and a laughing Ino.
(Next Day; Training Ground 13)
Yamato shunshin'ed in the area to see his team waiting on him.
"Alright, now I am going to explain something to you that will probably get you scared", Yamato began, "Before we do any missions we have to do another exam to determine how many of you will actually become Genin, the exam the other day was to see who qualified to be Genin, there is a 66.7 percent of failure, your exam is to land a hit on me by noon", Yamato tied a blindfold to his head and, "Hajime".
Riri and Pisu jumped behind Yamato. The three Genin formed a triangle around him. Naruto smirked, he had discussed plans with his team yesterday. He had figured that the only way to win was to work together.
Naruto ran through hand seals, "Fire Style; Fire Current".
Riri did two hand seals, "Fire Style; Great Fireball Jutsu", she said sending the giant fireball to Yamato.
Pisu had did hand seals. "Lightning Style; Lightning Spark".
Yamato smirked with pride that they were using teamwork and the fact that they were each sending a 'C' rank jutsu at him.
"Wood Style; Wood Wall", said Yamato and smashed his hand on the ground and the wood came up and blocked away the jutsus.
'I have an idea', Naruto thought, "Riri, Pisu, come over hear a second", Naruto said and they appeared next to him. He whispered to them and they smirked and nodded.
Riri yelled, "Fire Style; Running Fire Jutsu".
Pisu yelled, "Lightning Style; Lightning Bolt".
Naruto yelled, "Wind Style; Wind Bullets".
The three jutsu joined. There were six fire powered air bullets with lightning around it. "Collaboration Jutsu; Shocking Fire Bullets", Yamato was shocked at their collaboration but simply made another wood wall taking most of the shock but not all.
As soon as the wall went down Pisu was in front of him sending a palm strike to which Yamato sensed and dodged by merely millimeters.
"Ninja tactic number one; Taijutsu", he said as he dodged multiple strikes with his Jounin level sensory for Chakra.
"You are within range of my attack, Eight Trigrams Thirty Two Palms", his palm strikes hit Yamato dead on. Then Yamato turned into a wood and fell to the floor.
"A wood style clone", Pisu surmised then fled into the bushes and trees.
(Meanwhile; With Riri)
She was running through the shrubbery, grass and forests then saw Yamato in front of her which she barely managed to avoid by masking her Chakra signature and diving in the bushes.
"That was a close one", she said.
"Was it?", a voice asked behind her.
She turned around to see Yamato and he only said five words.
"Ninja tactic number two; Genjutsu", he whispered. She screamed then smirked as she burst into smoke.
"Shadow clone?", he asked himself.
"Correct". Riri appeared behind him and punch him and watched as he turned into wood.
"Wood Clone?".
"Correct was heard as she was kicked sending her into the forest.
(Meanwhile; With Naruto)
"Wood Style", was heard as Yamato sent wood after wood at a panting Naruto.
"Water Style; Gunshot", Naruto sent a water bullet at Yamato who only looked dumbfounded, that was a jutsu only known to be used by the Nidaime and the Sanbi.
"Shit…Earth Style; Mud Wall", he said and slammed his hands on the ground effectively stopping the water style jutsu. He had gotten a little soaked. Then Naruto appeared in front of him with a lightning covered fist.
"Lightning Style; Lightning Fist", he said and Yamato collected the punch in his stomach sending him into trees only to come back out being pulled by Pisu and Riri.
"You guys did good, now I have to report to Godaime-sama", Yamato said as he shunshin'ed away leaving a smirking team six.
"Ramen?", Naruto asked and they nodded and Naruto left for some ramen with his new team members.
(Two Minutes Later; Hokage's Office)
Yamato entered to see Tsunade, Jiraiya and Hiruzen talking to the Jounin senseis for teams one, two, three, four, five, seven, eight and ten.
"Yamato you look like shit, did your Genin do that?", Jiraiya asked upon seeing how the only living Wood style user looked like shit. His hair was pointing straight up, his uniform was burned and dinged.
"More like Naruto did, used his super human strength with a lightning style jutsu to punch me in my chest", he said grimly.
"Hmm, my son is a genius after all, I might as well try that", she said making Jiraiya cry anime tears.
"Alright, evaluation", Tsunade said. The Jounin for teams one through five reported failure.
"Yamato, sensei of team six reporting, they passed, their teamwork was so good they were acting like they knew each other their entire life", Yamato told them and the Hokage was impressed by their teamwork.
"Hatake Kaksahi, sensei of team seven, they passed…barely, Sai was trying his best while Sakura only cared about herself and Sasuke and speaking of Sasuke he only cares about power and wanting to kill Itachi", Kakashi explained.
"Yuhu Kurenai, sensei of team eight, they passed without a hitch", she said simply.
"Same for team ten", Asuma replied.
"Thank you, dismissed", Tsunade told them and they nodded and left.
"Alright Jiraiya-kun, what is it that you wanted?", Hiruzen turned to his former student.
"There is an organization that is chasing the Jinchuriki and trying to acquire the Bijuu within them for reasons unknown", Jiraiya told them.
"They're after my son, I will kill 'em before they get the chance', Tsunade growled.
"They are all S-classed missing nin and their clothing consist of black cloaks with a red cloud pattern on them", Jiraiya informed.
"Do you know any?", Hiruzen asked.
"There are eleven, I only know five, Uchiha Itachi, Deidara, Sasori of the Red Sand, Hoshigaki Kisame and our 'beloved' former teammate Orchimaru", Jiraiya said
"This may be a problem, what the name of the organization?", Tsunade asked.
Jiraiya's face drew grim.
"Akatsuki".
