Chapter 7: The Forest of Death
The 23 remaining teams and Anko arrive at training ground 44 Naruto looks at the forest with a hint of curiosity.
"WELCOME YOU MAGGOTS TO THE FOREST OF DEATH!" Anko announced with a gleeful look.
"Well this looks like it'll be fun." Naruto says as he smiles looking at the forest. Just then a kunai flicks past Naruto's cheek and blood comes from the wound and Anko licks the blood from his cheek.
"Tough guys like you usually end up dead within the first day."
"I was trained with Madara Uchiha himself if you think this will scare me you're in for a whole new experience." Just the Anko turns around with another kunai in her hand and a Kusa ninja with a long tongue.
"Here is your kunai miss." The grass ninja says.
"Oh thank you." Anko smiles.
"This is bad the chakra radiating off this guy is insane!" Naruto thinks as he is looking at the ninja.
"However don't stand behind me like that. That is unless you want to die young." Anko takes both her kunai and the grass ninja pulls her tongue back in.
"Well I get itchy when I see blood, also my precious hair was cut so I got a little excited, sorry." The grass ninja walks away
"Anyway in order for you to participate in the exams you need to sign these warrants that free the hidden leaf from any responsibility or liability should you die in the forest."
"What do you mean death?!" some of the participants asks.
"Just what I said, when you enter the forest you will start out with either a heaven or and earth scroll you will need to get both scrolls to get into the tower at the center. Don't open the scrolls or else, well let's just say it will be fun for me if you do." Anko smiles dangerously. "This exam will last five days."
"WHAT WILL WE DO ABOUT FOOD!" Chōji yells out.
"Scrounge some up; this forest is a treasure box of nature." Anko's smile widens. "But be careful as some of them are poisonous and also you might find that you will be hunting only to end up hunted." Anko brings every team to a gate and then after 5 minutes a buzzer goes off and the gates open up and everyone rushes in. After a few minutes Naruto looks at his teammates.
"Alright we got an earth scroll so we need a heaven scroll I'll take the scroll and we'll set a trap but odds are we won't even need to do that my bet is that the team from Iwagakure will come after me due to my connection with Madara-jiji." Fu looked at Naruto.
"What did your grandfather do to Iwa to piss them off so much?" Fu asked
"I'll show you the truth." Naruto activated his sharingan and in a second the world spun and Fu and Haku were looking at a young Madara in front of two shinobi one who looked like a mummy, the other was a midget.
"WHY?!" the younger Ōhnoki asked. "This is not the agreement! Hashirama-sama said…"
"There is no alliance. From here on, you will obey Konoha! And never, ever say that shinobi's name around me!" Madara said as he channeled chakra into his eyes and his Susano'o rose up. "Susano'o!" Madara smashed the temple he stood before them, Ōhnoki grabbed a rock and then stood up and faced Madara. "You want to continue dancing but…there is no strength in your steps." Madara casted a genjutsu on Ōhnoki causing him to drop the rock and collapse to the ground. Naruto then ended the Jutsu and the world returned to normal.
"Whoa your grandfather is strong even I've heard of Ryōtenbin no Ōhnoki." Haku said.
"Ōhnoki wasn't in his prime back then but he was using only a fraction of his true power I must admit I've never seen Madara Jiji's true power because he was an old man when I met him but he is powerful." Naruto said.
"Man if I were an Iwa Shinobi I'd be after your hide, they'd want revenge."
"You're damn right we do." A female voice called out and then Kurotsuchi, Akatsuchi and Han landed in the clearing. "I'll kill you Madara's Grandson and you will fall into despair in your last moments."
"Well then." Naruto draws his Gunbai. "Let's dance!"
"There's that arrogance you're just like your grandfather."
"It's not arrogance if I can back up my words…with power!" Naruto unleashes a huge torrent of KI and chakra.
"I can't lose as long as I have the Tsuchi no Ishi behind me."
"Power is not will it is the phenomenon of physically making things happen."
"WHY YOU!" Kurotsuchi charged in a blind rage and attacked Naruto with a furry of Taijutsu but Naruto countered easily with a bored expression on his face. When Kurotsuchi noticed something that infuriated her to no end. "Why haven't you activated you're sharingan?!"
"Because I don't need it to see though your attacks. The sharingan is only a tool it does not make the user invincible if you can force me to activate my sharingan then I will activate it, however I promise that our dance will be short if I do activate my sharingan."
"YOU ARROGENT BRAT!" Kurotsuchi jumped back and started weaving hand signs. "Yoton: Sekkaigyō no Jutsu." (Lava style: Quickslime Jutsu!) Kurotsuchi spits out a huge blast of silver lava at Naruto.
"Childs play." Naruto scoffs and begins to weave hand signs. "Katon: Gōka Messhitsu." Naruto exhaled a huge fire wave evaporating the wave of lava due the chakra behind the attack.
"I'm done playing games with you!" Kurotsuchi claps her hands together. "Jinton: Genkai Hakuri no jutsu!" (Particle style: atomic dismantling jutsu.) Kurotsuchi opens her hands and square was spread between her hands. Then she launches it at Naruto who couldn't dodge.
"Naruto!" Fu and Haku shouted.
"I DID IT! I KILLED MADARA'S GRANDSON!" Kurotsuchi laughed as she stood there laughing like a maniac. Just then a slow clap rung out and Naruto walked out from behind a tree smiling.
"You really are Ōhnoki's granddaughter to be able to use his Jinton but it doesn't matter to me."
"HOW?! I JUST SAW YOU DIE WITH MY OWN EYES!"
"What you just killed was a Mokuton Bunshin used by Hashirama back in the day it's well made only my visual prowess and my Grandfather's could tell the difference." Naruto looked at Kurotsuchi with a bored expression.
"YOU'RE DEAD!" Kurotsuchi clapped her hands together again.
"Enough." Naruto scoffed and slammed his hands together in the snake seal. "Mokuton: Mokuryu no jutsu!" Naruto held out his hand and his flesh formed a wooden dragon which wrapped around Kurotsuchi and the Jinton attack fizzled in her hands.
"H-h-how?!"
"This is Hashirama's wooden dragon, which he used to hold down the Kyūbi long ago. It can suppress chakra and even prevents chakra absorbing so you have no power against me."
"How do you have this much strength?!"
"Because I don't hide behind a family name I fight with my own strength and I train myself to the brink every day my grandfather didn't become feared throughout the shinobi nations by sitting on his ass."
"YOU DAMN BASTARD!" Kurotsuchi growled at Naruto.
"I'm ending this…NOW." Naruto made the Horse hand sign. "Katon: Gōka Mekkyaku!"
"Doton: Doryūheki." (Earth style: Mud-wall) Han shouted exhaling a huge wall of mud and earth. Naruto's wave of flame collided with the wall but the wall held strong and stopped the jutsu.
"You dance well Gobi let's see if you can dance with me longer than the woman could."
"Let's go Gobi." Han thought to his Biju.
"Right pup." Kokuo responded and channeled her chakra though her Jinchūriki. Then Han sprouted five tails of chakra.
"Kurama shall we?"
"I can only give you a little bit of charka as we don't have the key to the seal but against Kokuo you might need your Mangekyō sharingan."
"I won't enslave Biju I'm kinder then that I can't treat Kokuo any different then you, that would make me a hypocrite."
"You really are a kind hearted kit in that case I'll loan you some chakra it's time I teach Kokuo who's the stronger one here me or her." Kurama channeled his chakra through the seal but held back the blood lust allowing Naruto to reach the fourth tail with no trouble.
"Let's Go Kokuo!" Naruto charged.
"Agreed….Kurama!" Han shouted back charging Naruto who exchanged blows with Han eventually after ten minutes of fighting Naruto caught Han's fist and instantly he was transported to a white and gold landscape and he saw Kokuo with Han on her head. Naruto looked behind him and Kurama was sitting there.
"It's been a while…Kurama." Kokuo said
"Yeah not since the time Jiji died." Kurama responded
"Kurama where are we?" Naruto asked
"The Biju psychic plan…where the Biju can meet and converse…I'm surprised we are here I thought we couldn't reach here with the seal blocking me off from your charka."
"It probably has something to do with Han here." Kokuo said. "Since your jinchūriki and mine were duking it out with our chakra we probably established a deep enough connection with their charka to be dragged here."
"That's actually a very real possibility." Kurama said with a pondering look on his face.
"This isn't like you Kurama why are you getting along with your host so well?"
"The kit grew on me. I actually respect this Kit despite who his grandfather is."
"What's wrong with my grandpa?" Naruto asked.
"YOU KNOW DAMN WELL WHAT MADARA DID TO ME!"
"Ok Nii-san what am I missing?" Kokuo asked.
"The kit's grandfather, Madara Uchiha, used his damn sharingan to control me and he forced me to attack Hashirama which caused me to get sealed in Hashirama's wife then in the kit's mother and now the Kit himself. I haven't had freedom to stretch my legs in almost 100 years. Coupled with the fact that I'm missing my Yin chakra I'm rather pissed off about that seeing as it is sealed inside the Shinigami's stomach I can't get it back." Kurama folded his tails under his chin signifying his unhappiness.
"Any idea how to get it back Kurama?" Naruto asked his friend, Kurama responded with bursting out laughing. This continues for several minutes until Naruto grew a tick mark which slowly grew in size as Kurama continued to laugh.
"I think the pup is serious Kurama." Kokuo said. Kurama stopped laughing and looked at Naruto who, despite the tick mark on his face, was completely straight faced.
"Y-you're serious."
"Took you long enough." Naruto said his tick mark fading.
"Well according to legend there is a mask that is said to allow you to take control of the Shinigami and force it to slice open its own stomach which could release your father's soul and my chakra."
"Not a great option I'm sure there is another option."
"You could just ask." A voice called out and then CJ appeared in a swirl of white energy.
"Can I have Kurama's Yin chakra back please?"
"Sure why not" CJ said then he took his hand and reached into his mouth and rummaged around a bit then pulled out a slightly dark Kurama.
"That was way too easy." Naruto sweat drops
"Hey there sexy." Kurama said to his Yin half.
"Right back at you." Kurama's yin half responded.
"OH JUST FUSE ALREADY!" Naruto shouted his tick mark growing back.
"Who's the brat?" Kurama's yin half asked.
"Our Jinchūriki." Kurama said
"You speak highly of him did something happen when I wasn't looking?"
"Madara's grandson is nothing like that bastard of a man."
"YOU'RE MADARA'S GRANDSON!"
"Yeah you got a problem with that?" Naruto asked
"Why are we working with a descendent of that bastard of a man?" Kurama's yin half asked.
"He's the reason you're here, plus he's actually not bad when you get to know him." Kurama said.
"Damn right I'm not." Naruto said Kurama smashed him on the back of the head with one of his tails.
"You're still a brat don't forget that." Kurama said.
"Well if we're fusing let's get this over with." Kurama's yin half said.
"It'll be fun to be back at full strength."
"FU-SION!" Kurama and his Yin half stood on their hind legs and then balanced on one foot then held their paws out facing away from each other then they started walking towards each other then they touch index claws on both hands. "FU-SION! FU-SION! HA!" then in a blinding flash of light one Kurama stood there while everyone looked at him with sweat drops on their heads.
"Was that necessary?" CJ asked.
"No not really." Kurama laughed.
"THEN WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!" Kokuo shouts.
"Felt like it." Kurama said nonchalantly.
"You're an idiot." CJ said as he face-palmed.
"Who's the king of the Biju?"
"Who could lock you in his stomach for all eternity?"
"Fuck it, you win."
"Always do." CJ said then he vanished.
"By the way Naruto I thought I should tell you that Ōhnoki is planning an invasion of Konoha along with Orochimaru and Suna." Han said gaining Naruto's attention.
"Let him try, I'll remind him why he should fear the name Madara Uchiha."
"I was supposed to get involved and use Kokuo's power but now that you have Kurama back to full strength I'm going to rethink my part in this game."
"Well seeing as I can utilize Susano'o to its fullest that's a good idea."
"Anyway it was fun meeting you Naruto." just then the gold world vanished and when Naruto opened his eyes he was still holding Han's fist in his hand.
"HAN GET ME OUT OF HERE!" Kurotsuchi shouted.
"Sorry brother." Naruto whispered. "Mokuton: Mokuryu no jutsu!" again the wooden dragon rose up and wrapped around Han and Kokuo's chakra was slowly absorbed by the dragon. Naruto then turned to Akatsuchi who was sweating bullets at this point. "Hand over you're scroll and you'll live." Naruto said unleashing a torrent of focused KI. Akatsuchi started vomiting at the sheer volume of KI and slowly reached into his pocket and pulled out the heaven scroll and rolled it to Naruto. "Good now you can get your teammates and get the hell out of here and if you attack me again…I'll kill you." Naruto said then he looked at his teammates. "Let's go to the tower in the center there we'll rest for the remainder of the Exam."
"Right." Fu and Haku said then the three of them ran off towards the tower when suddenly Naruto sensed a very high chakra level flare itself into existence.
"Fu, Haku take the scrolls and go to the tower I have to check something out."
"What is it?" Haku asked
"I just sensed a very high Chakra level either there is another jinchūriki here or we have a problem."
"But what about you?" FU asked.
"I'm gonna check this out don't worry I'll be fine." Naruto handed the two scrolls to his teammates and then ran off towards the chakra signature. After a few minutes of leaping through the forest Naruto saw a man with a pale white face and instantly recognized him.
"That's Orochimaru!" Kurama said
"I know Kurama. Let's show him our power!"
"Right." Naruto leapt forward and to his shock he saw Anko kneeling on the tree branch clutching her shoulder.
"Why did you come…?" Anko says glaring
"We haven't seen each other in a long time, but you're treating me so coldly." Orochimaru said smiling
"Did you come to assassinate Hokage-sama?"
"No, no, well not yet anyway I don't have enough men for that. So I was planning on 'reserving' some outstanding ones from this village." Anko clutches her neck again and collapse to her knees. "I just gave someone that same cursed seal as a present a while ago; there is a boy I want."
"That boy is going to die before he serves you."
"True there is only a 10 percent chance he'll survive, but he might be like you, and not die."
"You seem quite interested in this boy." Anko sneers, then Orochimaru reaches out and touches her face.
"Are you jealous? Are you still angry that I used you, and then cast you off like trash? Unlike you, he seems to be an excellent ninja after all; he is the boy that carries the abilities of an Uchiha. His body is beautiful, and he is capable of becoming my successor. If he survives, things will become quite interesting. Whatever you do, don't cancel this exam; three from my village are under your care." Naruto had seen enough and started weaving hand signs.
"RAIKIRI!" Naruto roared then he charged Orochimaru with the lightning blade in his palm sharingan ablaze and Orochimaru jumped out of the way but Naruto managed to slice off his left arm due to Naruto's pure speed.
"Who the hell is that?!" Orochimaru thought then he saw Naruto's sharingan ablaze and glaring. "Ah Naruto-kun I've heard you were Madara's grandson but I think that proves it."
"You're dead Orochimaru you can't stop me."
"Oh you'll do nicely boy." Orochimaru licked his lips.
"No thanks I don't swing that way, but I'm sure you're little medic friend does."
"So you know about Kabuto, you're more perceptive then I thought."
"Well seeing as he has access to information that any normal Gennin should even though I know more about you then you know about me but that's because I have a spy even greater than Kabuto."
"He and Kabuto must swap notes some time." Orochimaru replied sarcastically.
"Irrelevant of what you think, you're out matched here Snake Sannin."
"Is that what you think?" Orochimaru snickers then he starts weaving hand signs. "Katon: Gōkakyū no jutsu!" (Fire style: Fireball jutsu.)
"Suiton: Mizurappa! (Water style: Wild water wave) Naruto exhaled a huge wave of water blasting Orochimaru backwards.
"That's the sharingan for you such delicious power, a pity I can't mark him as that blasted Kyūbi would just kill me." Naruto charges Orochimaru slashing and smacking him with the Gunbai and Scythe he carried Orochimaru dodged the strikes by bending like a snake.
"Hmm seems Orochimaru can dance rather well this will be exciting."
"Don't underestimate him kit Orochimaru isn't someone who you can take lightly."
"I know Kurama." Just then Orochimaru started weaving hand signs.
"Mandara no Jin!" (Ten thousand snake wave) Orochimaru shouted and spit out a wave of snakes towards Naruto each snake opened its mouth revealing a long blade which extended at they rocketed toward Naruto whose eyes widen then Naruto thought quickly and made the horse hand sign.
"Katon: Gōka Mekkyaku!" Naruto unleashed a huge wave of fire towards Orochimaru and the snakes which were obliterated by the intense flames. Anko watched in awe as Naruto pushed Orochimaru back.
"He's holding his own, no, beating Orochimaru!" Anko thought shocked. "Orochi-fucking-maru!"
"Such delicious power!" Orochimaru said with glee.
"I'm done dancing with you." Naruto said bored and channeled chakra into his right eye. "Amaterasu." Orochimaru burst into black flames and started screaming in pain but then Orochimaru vomited out himself, completely unscathed.
"Damn he has the Mangekyō if he's anything like Itachi then I've got to watch myself." Just then Orochimaru sensed nine chakra signatures headed his way. "Shit Anbu, and it feels like Sarutobi's among them I have to leave and fast." Orochimaru started laughing. "Well it's been fun Naruto-kun, until next time." Orochimaru started sinking into the ground but Naruto was faster and grabbed him with his Susano'o and dragged him back.
"I don't think so Orochimaru I'm ending this when on my terms not your's. Amaterasu!" Orochimaru took the black flames right to the face. Orochimaru cried out in pain again but the lower part of his skin shattered and a new Orochimaru appeared then sunk into the ground. "Damn he got away…no mater I'll get him next time."
"HOLY SHIT GAKI!" Anko shouted. "That was awesome!"
"Naruto what's going on here?!" Sarutobi shouted as he and two Anbu squads arrive.
"Orochimaru was here, he and I danced for a while but in the end he got away." Naruto responded.
"That Gaki is amazing." Anko said. "He managed to beat back Orochimaru… OROCHI-FUCKING-MARU!"
"Is that true Naruto?" Sarutobi asks.
"YOU CALL ME A LIAR!?"
"Yes it is Sandaime-sama but he'll be back." Naruto says. "however I have a piece of news that is of an even greater concern…Orochimaru, the Kazekage and Ryōtenbin no Ōhnoki are planning and invasion during the final phase of the chunin exams.
"So Ōhnoki has grown stones and finally is willing to pay us back."
"It's because they think we don't have a Jinchūriki and without Jiraiya we have no means of stopping a Bijū." Anko says
"Let alone two." Naruto says.
"Two!" Sarutobi looks shocked.
"Yes Shukaku and Kokuo are in these exams."
"Kami-sama preserve us."
"But the thing is we do have a way to stop the Biju." Naruto flares his sharingan then makes the snake hand seal. "Mokuton: Jokai Kouton!" (Wood style Deep forest Emergence.)
"M-Mokuton!" An Anbu said shocked.
"Correct…I care the Nikushimi no Noroi and the Hi no Ishi within me."
"You truly are Madara's grandson." Sarutobi said smiling sadly.
"Yes I am now if you'll excuse me I have some things to attend to before I finish the exams." Naruto leapt off towards where he sensed a convergence of chakras and Naruto also sensed a fraction of Orochimaru's chakra.
"What are you doing Kit?" Kurama asked.
"I'm going to go find out why 10 chakra signatures have converged on one location."
"You sure that's a good idea?"
"I'm bored ok? Sue me."
"I swear Madara's bloodlust is going to be the death of us."
"I just fought a Sannin and won do you really think this is the true extent of my power?"
"If I said yes I'd be an idiot."
"Let's go have some fun."
(With Sakura, Sai, Sasuke, Kin, Dosu, Lee, Zaku, Ino, Chōji, and Shikamaru.)
Sakura was out of chakra and exhausted, Lee was down for the count, Sasuke and Sai were out cold because of Orochimaru's attack, Ino was in possession of Kin's body, Shikamaru had paralyzed Dosu with the Kagemane no Jutsu and Zaku was laughing as he aimed his hands at Sasuke's hiding place.
"Let's just put an end to this and kill Sasuke as is our Mission." Zaku laughed. "Zankuha!" (Slicing Sound wave) just as the attack rockets towards Sasuke a White ethereal skeletal hand blocked the attack and Naruto came walking into view his Susano'o activated. "Not again more of these weak gennin just keep popping up!" Zaku said exasperatedly.
"Zaku watch yourself this is Naruto Uchiha Madara's grandson!" Dosu shouted.
"Whatever I'm gonna blow him away!" Zaku held out his hand again but Naruto dashed forward and punched Zaku in the stomach.
"Dance." Naruto's Susano'o rose up taking on a white version of Madara's Susano'o and the two swords slash wounds into Zaku's sides then Naruto slams the flat of the blade down on Zaku who substituted with a log to avoid most of the damage but Naruto wasn't done he channeled chakra into his palm. "RAIKIRI!" and then Naruto charged Zaku.
"Life…flashing…before…eyes!" Zaku thought as the lightning blade got closer and closer to his heart. Just then a huge tower of dark chakra erupted into the night Naruto turned and saw it was coming from Sasuke as purple chakra flared all around him.
"KIT FOCUS!" Kurama roared Naruto turned his eyes back Zaku and plunged the Raikiri into him but Zaku turned slightly and Naruto sliced through his left kidney then collided with the ground the shockwave broke the ground freeing Dosu from the Kagemane no jutsu.
"I missed." Naruto said nonchalantly. "Oh well."
"He scrapped my kidney." Zaku clutched his side as blood poured from the wound. "He didn't kill me but at this rate I'll bleed to death." Zaku looked over at Kin. "KIN GET OVER HERE AND HEAL ME!"
"I don't think so." Naruto channeled chakra into hand again and dashed toward Zaku and plunged the Raikiri into his left lung then Naruto pulled his hand out and weaved signs. "Mokuton: Ketsugō no ki." (Wood style: tree of binding.) A tree rose up and wrapped itself around Zaku holding him in place. "Now for your right lung." Naruto generated another Raikiri and without hesitation plunged it into Zaku's right lung. "Have fun drowning in your own blood." Naruto then turned to Kin murder in his eyes.
"Ino! Get out of there!" Shikamaru shouted and Kin weaved the hand signs necessary.
"Shintenshin No jutsu Kai!" (Mind Transfer Jutsu Release.) Kin shouted then Naruto dashed forward and grabbed Kin by the throat.
"You're a weak women! Weakness disgust me…and if you were a Senju you would disgust me even farther!"
"W-what…a-are…y-you…g-going…t-to…d-do…t-to…m-me?" Kin choked out. "R-rape…m-me?"
"Those who force themselves on women are scum and disgust me even more than a weak Senju. No I'm just going to kill you but don't worry I'll make it quick." Naruto formed a Raikiri in his hand. "Prepare yourself for oblivion." Naruto then plunged the Raikiri into Kin's heart killing her instantly. Naruto then turned on Dosu then smiled darkly.
"W-wait!" Dosu said as he kneeled and pulled out his heaven scroll and an earth scroll. "It's clear that I'm no match for you so I surrender our scrolls so just let me go okay?" Naruto looked on with loathing in his eyes.
"Sorry not happening I don't want Orochimaru learning anything more about then he already has." Naruto rushed in in and plunged a Raikiri into Dosu's heart then pulled out the two scrolls, and then he turned Ino, Shikamaru and Chōji. "Which scroll do you need?"
"Heaven." Shikamaru responded.
"Here yah go." Naruto tossed the heaven scroll to Shikamaru who caught it with surprise.
"Why on this test we are your enemy?"
"Do I need a reason to help a fellow comrade of Konoha?"
"I thought you resented the village and villagers."
"Nope just certain people." Naruto smiled. "Now get out of here." Naruto got a serious look on his face then he turned to the unconscious form of Sasuke. "Sasuke will be awakening any second and if this chakra flowing through him he'll be hostile to pretty much everything so I'm going to focus that hostility on me." As if on cue Sasuke stood up a tornado of purple chakra. Sasuke started cackling like a maniac.
"Yes with this power I can definitely kill him." Sasuke burst out laughing, then he saw Naruto standing there looking at him. "Naruto! Fight me. I want to test this new power with it I'll crush you." Naruto smiled and drew his Gunbai.
"Then we dance Sasuke." Naruto rushed Sasuke and Sasuke activated his sharingan only to growl in fury as Naruto didn't bother use anything other than the Uchiha interceptor fist something Sasuke knew.
"Damn that loser! HOW DARE HE USE MY FAMILY'S TAIJUTSU AGAINST ME!" Sasuke jumped back and started weaving hand signs. "Katon: Hōsenka no jutsu!" (Fire style: Phoenix flower jutsu.) Sasuke exhaled a huge barrage of fireballs, Naruto responded by channeling chakra through his grandfather's Gunbai and a large white circular barrier rose up and the fireballs connected with the barrier and they exploded but when the smoke cleared Naruto stood there a bored expression on his face.
"Foolish little Sasuke surviving in such an unsightly manner as this." Naruto unleashed a torrent of KI flooring Sasuke. "So by all means flee…run and cling to life survive in an unsightly way…" Naruto activated his Mangekyō. "And one day when you possess the same eyes that I do come before me again!" Sasuke's look of hatred turned to pure loathing and malice.
"HOW DARE YOU!" Sasuke started weaving hand signs. "Katon: Ryuka no jutsu!" Sasuke blasted Naruto with a wave of fire but Naruto dodged and grabbed Sasuke by the throat.
"I'm done dancing with you." Naruto threw Sasuke into the air and then used his Susano'o to punch Sasuke who went crashing into a tree the ripped right through it and several others. Sasuke struggled to his feet pure hatred in his eyes, "You want to continue dancing but…there is no strength in your steps." Naruto casted a genjutsu on Sasuke and he dropped to the ground as the last of his chakra left him.
"Ugh what just happened?" Sai said as he got up scratching his head.
"SO this is the boy that Zetsu told me works for Danzo." Naruto chuckled. "Well I have a message to deliver to that bastard." Naruto dashed forward and he grabbed Sai by the throat.
"W-what are y-you doing?!" Sai choked out.
"I have a message for Danzo." Naruto growled. "You tell that bastard that what he's done to my family is unforgivable and when I find him I will take great pleasure in ripping out Shisui's eye and then I'll rip off that right arm of his." Naruto then locked eyes with Sai. "And tell him….the second we find him not even the laws of this will save him nor will the Izanagi."
"Y-yes I'll tell him."
"Good." Naruto threw Sai into the air and then spun around and kicked Sai sending him flying through the air and he slammed into a tree and Sakura knocking them both out. Naruto ran towards the tower and after about 5 minutes Kurama tapped him on the head.
"Wakey, wakey kit."
"Genjutsu…seems this day will be more interesting."
"Good grief kit you are Madara's grandson."
"Alright come out whoever you are!" Naruto roared out.
"So you released my genjutsu the rumors about you are true you really are an Uchiha three Ame Ninja jumped down and looked at Naruto.
"Shall we dance?" Naruto rushed forward after he asked his trademarked question and then after a horrible 30 second beating the three Ame Ninja were on the ground who Naruto left to bleed to death. After a few more minutes of leaping through the forest Naruto saw Haku and Fu standing there playing 'I spy'
"I spy with my little eye something beginning with…Naruto!" Haku shouted out to his friend.
"Sup." Naruto said as he landed in front of his teammates. "Let's go we've got both scrolls. Are we the first team to make it here?"
"No that Gaara guy's team arrieved a few minutes before we did but that's it." Fu said. "Chomei says to watch out for Shukaku."
"Chomei is right we need to find Jiraiya so we can get the key to the seal ASAP." Kurama said
"Gotcha Kurama." Naruto responded. Then he Fu and Haku walked in to the tower then they saw an empty room. Naruto saw a placket that said. 'If you're missing….go to the Library and if you're missing…then the training ground is you best bet.'
"Oh no more riddles I hate riddles." Chomei complained. "This is Kurama's shtick."
"We need to open the scroll my guess." Naruto said then he reached into his back pocket and took out the heaven scroll that he picked up off Akatsuchi and Kurotsuchi. Then Haku took out the earth scroll they started with. Then Haku and Naruto looked at one another and nodded and at once the opened both scrolls Naruto saw the symbol on them. "TOSS THE SCROLLS! NOW!" Naruto shouted and without hesitation Haku and Naruto threw the scroll and they landed in an 'X' formation on the ground and in a flash of smoke Zabuza emerged.
"Congrats you three have passed second stage of the Chunin Exams." Zabuza said. "Get in there you've got 4 days to relax so get ready for the third stage.
