Chapter 10-Clan Blood Feud
Naruto walked through the Chuunin Tower to the Hokage's secondary office with Yugito in tow behind him along with Team 8. Yugito was a bit nervous, as she was led to meet the Fire Shadow, and looked over at the young Shinobi in front of her before seeing the glare from the Hyuuga girl.
Not one to be intimidated by this other girl, Yugito glared back at Hinata, and would have continued when Naruto stopped before looking back at them. The two stopped before they looked away, but the glare they gave the other out of the corner of their eyes still remained, and the group continued walking to see the Hokage.
'This guy got to hot girls to stop giving the other death glares by looking back at them with a single glance!' thought Kiba, as he was a bit jealous, and wanted to have that kind of alpha like strength.
"Ah, Naruto-kun! I heard you were coming and wanted to speak with me," said Hiruzen, as he saw the young Grey Jedi enter his office, and the others behind him that witnessed the events in the Forest of Death.
"Yes. Nii Yugito was sent here with the other Kumo 'genin' by the Raikage to capture a Hyuuga in the Forest of Death and take said individual back to Kumo for breeding," said Naruto, as he saw Hinata shiver at that last word, and saw Yugito's eyes slowly soften upon seeing it.
"I see. I'm sure the Raikage will deny it and demand Yugito be returned to her unless you can give me a solid reason why I shouldn't," said the Sandaime, as he saw Yugito shiver slightly, and a comforting hand on the woman's back made it stop while strangely enough making her purring sound.
Naruto-kun should be doing that with me! Wait! Calm down. Think happy thoughts. Go to your happy place. Naruto shirtless? No. Naruto in his underwear? Close. Um...oh yeah, seeing Naruto with my bloodline, and seeing that thing between his legs. Perfect!' thought Hinata, as she was now at her happy place, and was able to keep herself from maiming the Nibi vessel.
"With all do respect Hokage-sama, but I am the vessel of the Nibi Cat Demon, and since I have been in the service of Kumo I have hated it with all my heart. I seek amnesty in your village if possible and refuse to go back the Raikage just to be punished for my failure," said Yugito, as she saw the man wince slightly, but nodded his head in understanding, and looked to Naruto before seeing the young man nod his head too.
"Very well. For the moment, you will be classified under the term 'deceased', and I will tell the Raikage that you were killed in the Forest of Death. Naturally, he will of course not believe what I tell him, but will have no choice in the matter since he would have to acknowledge that you are a demon vessel, and bring trouble for himself. To keep you from being seen by others, I will let you stay as a guest in the Namikaze Estates, and under the Namikaze Clan's protection," said Sandaime, as he saw Yugito's eyes light up with joy while Hinata became angry, and her teammates began to take several steps back.
"There is still the question about the Chuunin Exams? I ran into Orochimaru and severely wounded him. He was clearly up to something and I wouldn't put it past him to plan some kind of attack when we least suspect it," said Naruto, as he saw the Sandaime nod, and let out a sigh at what he could do with Orochimaru.
"I will have Jiraiya have his spy network take a look at that while you prepare for the genin teams that are going to arrive in the next couple of days. As for you Team 8, since you have both scrolls before entering the tower, I am letting you pass, and let you rest until its time for the next stage of the Exams," said the Sandaime, as he saw Naruto nod before leaving with Team 8, and Yugito out of his office.
It was going to be a long exam.
(Central Tower-A Few Days Later)
The various Genin Teams entered the arena area of the tower in an orderly fashion with Naruto standing before them in his Grey Jedi attire only without the helmet and just robes with a hood over his head to mask his facial features. Behind Naruto, were almost all of the senseis of each team that made it, the Hokage himself with his pipe in his mouth, and surprisingly his own team at the request of Kakashi to the Hokage so they know what to look forward to next time around.
"Welcome to the Chuunin Exam Preliminaries. As your Proctor for this little event, I will go over some quick rules, and do remember I will be enforcing all of them with extreme prejudice so behave while you are here," said Naruto, as he looked at all the teams that had made it, which were mostly Leaf Shinobi, the Suna Siblings, and the one Sound team he saw from the first part of the Exams.
"Wait! We have to fight after making it all the way here?" said Shikamaru, as he was so tired, and wanted to go to the roof of this building to watch the clouds.
"I wanted to eat some more chips before fighting," said Choji, as he was hungry, and had wanted to eat something for the past few days here that was to his clan's lifestyle.
"Ino-chan, would you please?" said Naruto, as he saw Ino smash her fists into both of her teammates, and told them to shape up.
'Again, Naruto has these girls whipped to do his bidding, and they in turn have other guys whipped just for him!' thought Kiba, as he couldn't understand how someone his age was being so commanding, and acting like an alpha of some invisible pack.
"Thank you. As I was saying, there are some rules to go over for the Preliminaries, and I will enforce them by any means necessary. The first rule is, my word is law, and to usurp it will mean you pay physically beyond anything you have ever felt before. So don't piss me off! Second, this room is a no hugging zone, and I forbid hugging of any kind Lee! Gai! Third rule, there will be no killing unless I say so, and if you have a problem with that then you better quit right now!" said Naruto, as he saw the group straighten suddenly at the chilly stillness the young Namikaze delivered upon them, and they understood to upset him would mean pain.
Lots and lots of pain.
'That's my sensei,' thought Hanabi with pride, as she saw the young Grey Jedi look up at her for a moment before she waved, and she saw the smile he had beyond the hood that made her blush before he turned to face the group of Genin in front of him.
"Now, this part of the Chuunin Exams is designed to weed out, and see who gets to go onto the Exam Finals in a Months time. Normally, this wouldn't happen, but since there are so many of you for this years Chuunin Exams, this was unavoidable, and you will each compete one on one against the other in a random drawing done on the monitor behind me," said Naruto, as he saw Anko appear next to the Hokage now with a smirk on her face, and Kurenai seeing the happy look on her friend wondered how that came to be.
However, before Kurenai could ponder that, the board behind Naruto appeared, and names were running through it randomly to indicate who would be fighting first.
Inuzuka Kiba VS Subaku no Temari
"Yes! I get to prove that I'm an alpha right away!" said Kiba, as he shot his fist into the air, and Temari had a look on her face that told everyone she was going to kick his ass.
"Everyone who is not those two named individuals can go up to the balcony above to watch," said Naruto, as the other Genin did just that, and waited for the fight to begin.
'Time to show this bitch from Suna how Leaf Shinobi fight,' thought Kiba, as he smirked at Temari, and the Suna girl didn't like the look since it was a perverted look to her.
Only Naruto could give her that look!
"Both of you are ready? Then...BEGIN!" said Naruto, as he motioned with his hand for them to fight, and instantly the battle started.
Then it ended.
One Wind Jutsu from Temari's iron fan and Kiba along with Akamaru were sent flying into the wall that made Kurenai sigh while Hinata shook her head. Shino stayed silent, but if one could read his mind (Naruto did), you would hear him saying the word "baka" in his head, and made a mental note to avoid his teammate for a brief time.
"Winner by knockout: Subaku no Temari!" said Naruto, as he raised Temari's hands, and was rewarded by a kiss on his lips.
Much to the irritation of the female populous in the room.
'Soon to be Namikaze Temari,' thought Temari, as she was going to get to know Naruto better, have her Father arrange a marriage between them, and if she gets a little wild with him along the way...?
Well she doubted it would be a horrible experience.
Walking away with a nice sway added in her hips, Temari ignored all the girls giving her death glares, and looked at the board along with Naruto to see who was next to pair of fighters were.
Subaku no Gaara VS Kinuta Dosu
Gaara simply smiled, as he immediately appeared in the ring via a swirl of sand, and waited for Dosu to come walking down the stairs moments later ready to face his ever confident opponent rumored to be untouchable. Dosu was no fool, as he had heard the rumors of Gaara being the ultimate shield, and knew any direct confrontation with the Suna Genin would result in his death.
Which was why the Sound Bracers on his arms were going to do their job quite nicely in getting through that shield before going through Gaara.
"BEGIN!" said Naruto, as he waited for the match to begin with Dosu charging forward with his sound bracer on his right arm ready to launch his devastating sound attack.
However, before Dosu could even get in range to launch his attack, Gaara shot his sand out of his gourd, and made Dosu leap away from him. Scowling, Dosu tried again, but got the same results before Gaara apparently had enough, and launched his sand the very instant Dosu charged forward a third time that caught the bandaged man in the trap.
"Proctor, I'm going to kill him now," said Gaara, as he didn't like this kid from Sound, and if the reports Suna got about Sound village was correct it would be in everyone's benefit to kill this boy now.
"Go for it," said Naruto much to the surprise of everyone there and saw the sand cover up the bandaged boy from Sound before he was devoured by the sand.
'That kid is strong,' thought everyone outside of those that knew Gaara and saw him walk calmly back to his siblings.
"Winner by kill: Subaku no Gaara!" said Naruto, as he saw the board start up again, and it came up with another pair of names.
Tsuchi Kin VS Nara Shikamaru
"Great! I get stuck fighting a girl. Its bad enough that I have to deal with Ino all the time," said Shikamaru, as he walked down the steps, and ignored Ino's cursing with the promise of making him feel pain later.
'And the lazy gaki wonders why women married into his clan beat all the males in it to a bloody pulp,' thought Asuma, as he sweat dropped at his students words, and knew he was going to have to do something about it soon.
"BEGIN!" yelled Naruto, as he saw Kin immediately go on the offensive, and shoot her senbon needles at the Nara.
Despite being lazy, Shikamaru was able to move quickly, and dodge the needles that if they made contact on his pressure points would have disabled him. He smirked at her slight surprise, but then it left when she smirked back at him, and he knew that wasn't a good thing before he felt dizzy while seeing three Tsuchi Kins instead of one.
"Surprised. Had you run into us in the Forest of Death, you would have learned that our village name isn't just for show, and we specialize in actual sound. My senbon needles have little bells attached to them that specialize in sound and attack your brain through your ears by placing you under a disabling Genjutsu. Within the next minute or two, you will get so sleepy that you'll collapse, and get knocked out," said Kin, as she would have gladly wished to kill this Leaf Shinobi, but she doubted the current Proctor would allow it, and she had to admit the strange robe wearing boy was kind of cute.
She decided to leave a good impression at the moment.
Sure enough, Shikamaru had fallen down onto the ground, and fell asleep while snoring that caused Asuma to palm his face while his other two students face planted. With that done, Naruto declared Kin the winner before using the Force to levitate Shikamaru back into the balcony, and woke him up via slamming him into the wall head first.
'Troublesome blondes and senbon needle with bell using girls," said Shikamaru, as he got off the ground, and saw his teammates glaring at him while Ino looked ready to pound his head into the ground had Asuma not stepped in.
Besides, the next set of names was coming up, and they needed to see who was fighting who.
Aburame Shino VS Subaku no Kankuro
"Great! Why do I get the silent ones?" said Kankuro, as he saw the boy walk down in his usual silent manner, and Kankuro was soon across from the bug user.
"Perhaps the lady would like to back out of this fight because of my clan bloodline," said Shino earning several snickers from Temari, and Naruto while Kankuro looked angry.
"I'M A GUY YOU IDIOT!" yelled Kankuro making many people look at him with a second look before Choji said "Really?" above in the stands making the puppet user angry.
"Let's get this started before you have PMS. BEGIN!" said Naruto, as he saw Shino stand still while Kankuro unleashed Crow against the bug user, but the instant the puppet struck the Aburame, the boy turned into bugs, and they swarmed all over the puppet before the Suna creation fell to the ground lifeless.
"My bugs feed off chakra, which you have connected to your puppets from your body at your fingertips, and they destroyed your connected to it not long after eating your chakra strings," said Shino, as he saw Kankuro curse at him before trying to unleash his other puppet stowed away in his summons scroll, but couldn't when he found his body being covered in bug, and felt them feeding on his chakra.
"Proctor I give up!" said Kankuro, as he felt drained, and slightly violated at the same time by Shino's bugs.
"Winner by forfeit: Aburame Shino!" said Naruto, as he saw the bugs retreat back into Shino, and the bug user walking up the stairs while Temari was giving her brother an earful for losing to Shino.
'So far so good, but that doesn't mean something isn't going to happen,' thought the once old Sandaime, as he saw the names go about randomly, and nearly choked on his pipe when he saw the next two names.
Hyuuga Hinata VS Hyuuga Neji
'Oh no!' thought Hinata, as she clutched onto her jacket fearfully, and saw the same look on her sensei's face.
'Oh no!' thought Kurenai, as she looked at Naruto, and saw a grim looking expression on his lips like he knew what was going to happen.
'Time for you to suffer Hinata-sama. Just like my Father suffered everyday being the Main Family's servant!' thought Neji, as he had a smirk on his face, and walked down to the arena floor with an air of arrogant confidence.
'I must prove that I'm strong,' thought Hinata, as she made her way down to the arena floor, and looked nervous while getting ready to fight Neji.
"Hinata-sama, I will say this once, and that is for you to withdraw from this match since it is clear you do not possess the strength nor willpower to fight me. You are weak and have been pampered all your life. Even you getting here required some form of help," said Neji, as he saw Hinata look at him with surprise, and Naruto narrowed his eyes at Neji while digging discretely through the Branch members head.
'So he knows about what happened in the Forest of Death does he? Doesn't mater now,' thought Naruto, as he saw Hinata looking more nervous, but was making every attempt possible to hold her ground, and Neji saw this much to his annoyance.
"If you don't give up now, I will use all my skills in our family Taijutsu to defeat you, and I will hurt you...badly!" said Neji, as he activated his Byakugan, and use it to intimidate his cousin.
"Hinata, do not be afraid. Believe in yourself like I do," said Naruto through the Force into Hinata's mind, and made the girl straighten up before using her own bloodline limit to push back the growing killer intent sent at her by Neji.
"I won't back down Neji-Nii-san. Prepare to fight!" said Hinata, as she saw Naruto give her a brief nod before raising his hand, and looked at both of them to see if they were ready.
"BEGIN!" yelled Naruto, as he put his hand down, and saw Neji move in quickly for the kill before Hinata put a few defensive Gentle Fist moves to block them.
To everyone's surprise with the exception being Naruto, the one being pushed back was Neji, as he had expected to defeat his supposedly weak cousin, but didn't realize that Hinata was practicing hard under Naruto's part-time teaching, and used Gentle Fist in combination of his Echani Taijutsu style to throw off some of Neji's more complex moves.
Neji himself was surprised by this, as he did not expect Hinata to fight in such a way, and it was preventing him from having what he felt was his vengeance upon the Main Family, and was getting angry. He had been in pain ever since his Father died to make sure that Hinata's was spared the death that was rightfully his to have for what happened years ago, and was going to complete the vicious cycle by killing his cousin right here.
Besides, it wasn't like Hiashi actually cared about her since she was a weakling, a stain on the Hyuuga Clan, and needed to be removed permanently.
Hinata saw one of Neji's palm thrust aimed near her head, as he knew he was going for the kill shot, but she dodged quickly before spinning around his arm, and kneed him in his ribs before elbowing her cousin in his temple. Neji stumbled back before looking at Hinata with fury in his eyes, as he maneuvered to strike Hinata's stomach, but his thrust was blocked, and Hinata hit him in his shoulder that disabled his limb for the duration of the fight.
'This cannot be! I was suppose to defeat Hinata. How can this weak nothing defeat the likes of the Hyuuga Prodigy?' thought Neji, as he tried to strike Hinata again, but was hit by a back flip kick that sent him backward onto the ground.
'Sister quite is skilled in that other Taijutsu she's using with our family's style. I've seen fighting like that before from Naruto-sensei. Could Naruto-sensei have taught her how to fight like that?' thought Hanabi, as she had been trained by Naruto in Taijutsu by him, but they were basics of what Hinata was using, and some of them seemed to work with her flexibility that made Neji's efforts impossible to land a descent hit on her.
"You are beaten Neji-Nii-san. Please do not try to get up," said Hinata, as she saw Neji's eyes become hate filled while he got up to stand on his own two feet, and was not going to let this weak embarrassment stand before him as the victor.
"I won't let you win! You are a mistake that shouldn't have been allowed to stay in the Main Family. I will remove you from this world and reclaim my Father's honor for what happened all those years ago by ending the life of the daughter sired by the man that was too much of coward to face his death!" said Neji, as he was bleeding slightly from the mouth, and charged at Hinata with the full intention of ending her life.
Hinata for the most part was too shocked by his words to even prepare for his sudden action and her cousin would have succeeded in striking had it not been for Naruto using the Force to stop him in his tracks. Neji looked over at the Namikaze seeing him shake his head to tell the Hyuuga Prodigy that was not tolerated in his presence.
"Hyuuga Neji is unable to fight due to mental and physical reasons. Winner is Hyuuga Hinata!" said Naruto, as he saw Neji become enraged, but before he could protest this face, Gai had place a hand on his shoulder, and looked disappointed in his students actions.
"Neji, you told me that you would leave all clan business outside of these exams, which was why I even considered letting your team participate, and the fact that Naruto trusts my judgment when it comes your health was the only reason he didn't protest Team 9 from entering at all. I see now that I made a mistake in believing you were capable of keeping such personal resentment at bay," said Gai, as he saw Hinata bow to Naruto before going back up to the balcony, and Naruto walking towards Neji with an unhappy look on his face.
"You tried to kill your cousin, a fellow Shinobi of the Leaf, and I told you that I will not tolerate killing unless there is a reason for it. For that Hyuuga Neji, you will suffer the consequences of your actions, and I will make sure you understand what it means to be humbled," said Naruto, as he let go of his hold with the Force on the Branch member, and then nodded for Gai to release Neji from his grip.
As expected, Neji tried to attack Naruto for his interference, but the Namikaze was done tolerating the Hyuuga Prodigy any further, and decided to teach the boy a lesson. Naruto dodged the first strike, then the second, and stopped the third before kneeing Neji in the gut hard enough to make the boy puke out blood from his mouth.
But Naruto wasn't done with the lesson.
Before Neji even had a chance to try getting off the ground, he was levitated off of it by Naruto, and thrown from one wall to the next. All the people in the room were shocked by this action, as they saw Hyuuga Neji get thrown around like a ping pong ball before Naruto "spiked" him into the ground, and essentially broke every bone in the Branch member's body.
'Wow!' thought Yugito, as she was watching from her hiding place among the shadows, and the Nibi telling her that Neji had it coming due to his attempt at killing his kin.
"Get this trash out of here," said Naruto to the Medic Nin's that came in with a stretcher and carefully took the boy away to be treated for his injuries.
"You can fix him, right Naruto-sama?" said Gai, as he saw his student in constant pain from his beating, and saw Naruto nod his head.
"Yes. I will, but not right now. Neji needs to know what true physical pain is before I do anything to help him," said Naruto, as he saw Gai nod before heading back up into the balcony, and everyone slowly focused on the next match.
Rock Lee VS Abumi Zaku
"YES! I HAVE THE CHANCE TO PROVE MYSELF YOUTHFULNESS!" yelled Lee, as he had fire coming out of his eyes, and heard the cries from Gai about the "Spring time of Youth" being spoken.
"I'M SO PROUD OF YOU LEE!" yelled Gai, as they moved in to hug, but was stopped by Naruto, who shot a wave of Force Lightning in-between them, and sent them a heavy death glare.
"NO HUGGING!" yelled Naruto, as he saw them nod quickly before Lee jumped down to fight his opponent, and the said opponent looking pretty bloodthirsty right now.
'He just made Gai and Lee stop that accursed Genjutsu of theirs from manifesting! Not even Kurenai-chan can do that!' thought Anko, as she saw Kurenai looking a little upset that her skills in Genjutsu had no effect while someone younger then her did, and for some odd reason it was making the snake woman a little hot under the trench coat.
"BEGIN!" yelled Naruto, as he saw Zaku instantly aim his hands at Rock Lee before firing a sound wave blast at the green spandex wearing boy, who used his impressive speed to dodge the attack the instant he saw the holes in the Sound Shinobi's palms.
'Such a dangerous skill. I must move quickly to avoid being hurt,' thought Lee, as he had to dodge another attack, and another before Zaku got increasingly irritated by all this.
So when in doubt...play dirty.
"If you won't hold still for me, then maybe you will for your teammate up in the stands!" said Zaku, as he aimed his arms at Tenten, and was about to fire at her much to the horror of everyone else in the room.
He couldn't however, when Naruto drew his Lightsaber, and sliced Zaku's arms off at the elbow making the boy scream out in pain.
"Such foolishness will not be tolerated while I am the Proctor of these Preliminaries. The winner by disqualification is Rock Lee!" said Naruto before he deactivated his Lightsaber and saw the Hokage motion for ANBU to take the boy away for Ibiki to deal with him.
Hopefully, Zaku knew what Orochimaru had planned, and could inform them about it.
"I did not truly win this fight Gai-sensei. Forgive me!" said Lee, as he looked defeated, but his sensei put a hand on his shoulder, and gave him a blinding flashy smile.
"DO NOT WORRY LEE! YOU WILL ADVANCE TO EXAM FINALS AND SHOW EVERYONE YOUR SPRING TIME OF YOUTH!" yelled Gai being dramatic as ever and the two would have hugged except they saw the look Naruto was giving them.
'They're learning. Good! Soon I'll break them out of their hugging ritual soon enough,' thought Naruto, as he saw them resist in hugging, and looked to the board again for the names that would soon be posted for the next fight.
Isis Tenten VS Yamanaka Ino
'Shinobi Catfight!' thought most of the males in the room while trying to hide their own nosebleeds from the women in the room that gave them glares to not be perverted.
"BEGIN!" said Naruto, as he saw the two were ready for a fight, and both were itching to prove their worth as Shinobi.
Tenten drew a kunai while Ino drew her own before the two clashed at the other using a combination of Taijutsu skills they learned from their respected senseis. In addition, each girl had been taught Taijutsu that fit them not only from their given senseis (Tenten had sworn under pain of death to never wear green spandex), but were taught under Naruto as well with Tenten learning the Mandalore fighting style, and Ino learning the Echani fighting style.
"Look at them go. Did you learn the fighting style of the twin bun haired girl sister?" said Hanabi, as she was beside her sister now after congratulating her for winning, and wished to make up for their years of rivalry.
"No sister. She was taught that style because it suited her best. Though I must admit that the thought learning the other style from Naruto-kun might help too," said Hinata, as she blushed at the thought of doing that again since it may require the lack of clothing like he did with the Echani fighting style.
She knew when Ino came around the Namikaze Estate the first time to learn the Echani fighting style she didn't stop blushing for weeks on end. Not that Hinata could blame her, as their own bodies were displayed out before him, but so was his at the same time, and it took so many tries to not pass out from blood loss due to nosebleeds at being so close to Naruto's hot muscled-again she was ready to pass out because such naughty thoughts.
Hinata had been tempted so many times to not wear bra and panties after that.
"You're pretty good. Naruto taught you well," said Tenten, as she saw Ino blush a little since the memory of her training in only her unmentionables was still fresh in her mind, and how she accused him of being a pervert when it came to this Taijutsu style.
"Really? I can say the same about you too. You're using one of the two styles Naruto-kun knows," said Ino, as she was told about the two forms, and while she preferred the Echani Taijutsu style it didn't mean that learning the other style would be impossible.
"Yeah. It was pain in the ass, but it was worth it with every thrust, and position we went over for hours on end everyday we trained," said Tenten, as she saw Ino blush heavily at what she felt was a big innuendo, and if they were to look around...all the female Shinobi in the room were blushing at what Tenten said.
"You're still no match for me," said Ino, as she flipped over Tenten before trying to hit her with a high kick, and was blocked by Tenten's spinning elbow attack before landing a kick to the Yamanaka's ribs that sent the platinum blonde flying.
"Sorry Ino, but I have been training in Kenjutsu since I could walk, which is the cousin of Taijutsu, and then there is the Taijutsu stance Naruto-kun taught me. You are good at the Taijutsu you use Ino-san, but you can't best someone, who has trained herself into being a strong female Shinobi since she could walk, and I'm not going to lose the opportunity to fight in the Chuunin Exam Finals!" said Tenten, as she quickly pounced on Ino, and had her kunai pressed against the platinum blondes neck.
'Damn! She has me pinned in a way that I can't use my family's mind Jutsus,' thought Ino, as she tried to get out of the hold she was in while not able to see the position they were both in being very...provocative.
"All we need now is a giant pool of mud for these girls to roll around in and this would be perfect for my next book," said Jiraiya, as he was giggling perversely, and was going to write it all down in his research notes had he not felt the invisible vice grip on his nuts by Naruto.
'Baka!' thought Naruto, as he ignored Jiraiya's pleas for mercy, and Anko cheering him on to crush the Super Perverts nuts with his powers.
Meanwhile, Ino finding no way out of her pinned position, announced she gave up, and Naruto announced Tenten the winner of the match. Getting off of her opponent, Tenten gave her hand to Ino, which she took before sending a look at the weapon user that said this rivalry wasn't over, and the two left for the stands.
"Wait! What about me?" said Choji, as he realized that everyone had fought except him, and it seemed a bit unfair that he couldn't show off.
"Since there is no one else left to fight in the Preliminaries, you are going to the Exam Finals by default Choji, but it could be arranged that you fight me in order to advance, and prove your metal like everyone else has," said Naruto, as he saw Choji go pale, and waved his hands defensively.
"NO! I mean, no that's all right, I've seen you fight, and I know I would be crippled if I tried so I'll just take my advancement painlessly-I mean quietly!" said Choji, as he saw Naruto smirk at him before turning to the Hokage, and nodding at him.
"You have all done well. The victors of this match please return to the arena floor and form a straight line so we can prepare you for the final portion of the Chuunin Exams," said the Hokage, as he watched the group of Chuunin hopefuls take up the commanded formation, and Anko walked over with a box filled with numbers.
"You will all take a number. Each number will represent where you stand on this chart and who you will be fighting in a Month," said Anko, as she saw each of the fighters take a piece of paper with a number on it.
"I have # 4," said Tenten, as she showed her paper to Ibiki, who put down her under the line of the #4 spot, and turned to the person next to her.
"I've got # 6," said Temari, as she shows her slip of paper, and winks at Naruto making the temperature drop noticeably.
"Girl's and their troublesome hormones," said Shikamaru, who was rewarded for his smart ass remark by a hit from Ino, and then a stomping on his person while being called a baka at the same time.
"I've got # 2," said Choji making a few people snicker at that and the big boned kid had the decency to blush at his own embarrassing innuendo.
"I have # 1," said Kin, as she saw Ibiki put down her name, and looked to Gaara for his paper.
"I have # 3," said Gaara making Tenten a little nervous, but steeled herself not to feel it, and looked at Naruto with a silent communication to train more with her.
"I have # 8 on my paper", said Shino calmly, as he revealed his paper, and wondered who the person was that would face him.
"I have # 5," said Hinata, as she showed her paper, and eyed Temari with a heated glare with Temari returning.
'He's mine!' thought Temari and Hinata at the same time.
"I youthfully announce that I have # 7!" said Lee, who was smacked in the back of the head by Tenten, and told to behave himself.
"Very well. You have all completed the Preliminaries of the Chuunin Exams and now you have one Month to prepare for the Exam Finals. Train hard in the things you know and even harder in the things you don't know yet. All of you will be training in things that you didn't know before this day and will put what you know a Month from now to the test to see if its good enough for you to earn the rank of Chuunin. My advice on how to do this would be...find your sensei, and beg him with countless bribes for training you in whatever it is you need training in," said Naruto getting a laugh at the last part while several of the girls blushed since they shared a mutual sensei and had somewhat of an idea on how to bribe him.
Discreetly of course.
"You need to train hard as well kitten. Don't forget, you rely on my powerjust a little too much, and it would wise to expand your inventory of Jutsus should my power no long suffice," said Nibi, as she knew that Naruto could help her in that department, and maybe in some Taijutsu training as well from what she saw with Naruto watching the last two girls fight like he was their sensei.
With the choices made, the Genin scattered save for Hinata, Ino, and Tenten approaching Naruto asking him to continue teaching them further when they weren't with their three individually assigned team senseis. Before they could however, they got into a three-way glaring contest, and would have stayed that way had Anko not intervened by tackling Naruto from behind.
"Naruto-kun! A certain Fire Shadow told me you fought a certain person I don't like in the Forest of Death and let him live. Care to explain why?" said Anko in a sweet voice that meant the Namikaze needed to explain himself or he was going to be in a whole lot of pain.
"Because I needed to measure his skills in comparison to your Anko-chan. By seeing how strong Orochimaru is, I can determine how much time I need to spend training you, and reaching a higher level in order for you to kill him yourself," said Naruto sensing Anko's shock before hugging him tighter while letting out a girlish squeal.
"Thank you Naruto-kun! Thank you! Thank you!" said Anko, as she buried him further into her breasts making the girls along with Yugito angry.
"You're welcome Anko-chan. Now if I could have a moment to speak to these three, you can talk to Kurenai, who seems have a desire to speak with you, and find out why you are in such a good mood," said Naruto, as he pointed to Kurenai, who was looking at Anko with a "you have some explaining to do" type look, and kissed Naruto right on the cheek before going over to the now shocked woman.
"We want more training!" said the three girls all at once before they began glaring at each other again.
"I see. Well, you will have to work out a schedule with your official senseis, and after that I expect you to visit me at the Namikaze Estates," said Naruto, as he heard the shout from Kurenai, and was instantly finding himself being strangled by the now infuriated woman before him.
"I'LL KILL YOU! YOU SLEPT WITH ANKO, MADE HER FEEL LIKE A SLUT, AND MARKED HER ASS LIKE SHE WAS PROPERTY!" yelled Kurenai, she didn't care that people were looking at Naruto, then at Anko, and then back at Naruto being strangled by the angry Genjutsu Mistress.
'Strong is the anger of this one. But misguided it is,' thought Naruto, as he called upon the Force, and pried the woman's hands around his neck before pushing her back a few feet so he had a chance to breath.
"I'm going to castrate you for what you did!" said Kurenai, as she took out a kunai, and was about to charge him when Anko interfered by binding her with snake from her trench coat sleeve.
"Kurenai-chan, I told you about what happen because I thought you would be happy for me, and here you are attacking Naruto-kun like was a simple pervert," said Anko, as she was not about to have her lover get mutilated, and for once needed to protect the thing between a male's legs rather then removing it herself.
"He literally marked your ass with his name like you were his property!" said Kurenai, as she sent Naruto a heated glare, and wish Anko would not mention what he did.
Its called privacy for a reason.
"And how many perverts have we marked, huh? Besides, I'm with Naruto-kun now, and since he is the last of his clan it means he needs strong sexy women to help rebuild his clan. It's my own fault that I fit into this category," said Anko, as she winked at Naruto, and saw the boy smirk under his hood.
"You do realize I have two other girls at my house right? One being a certain fox girl?" said Naruto, as he wanted to remind Anko she wasn't the first one to join his harem, and wasn't going to be the last.
"I know! I say get as many girls as you can since the more the merrier when it comes to all the intense sex we're going to have," said Anko making the girls blush, Kurenai's jaw drop, and Naruto sweat drop.
"I should have foreseen this would happen," said Naruto, but let out a conceded sigh, and smiled at Anko to let her know she was in for the time of her life.
"Great! I'll pack up my stuff and move right in," said Anko, as she didn't have much, but that didn't matter, and she was sure Naruto had plenty of money to throw around to let her buy new things.
"You can let me go now Anko," said Kurenai, as she glared at her friend before she felt the snakes remove themselves from her person, and then walked up to Naruto.
"Something you wish to say further Kurenai-san?" said Naruto, as he sensed a lot of what was going on through her mind, and ignored the fierce look in her eyes.
"If you break Anko's heart, I'll break off your dick!" said Kurenai, as she wanted to make it clear to him that Anko was not some girl he could string along, and then dump her after breaking her heart.
"Then I have nothing to worry about then, do I Kurenai-san?" said Naruto confidently, as he saw her looked a little upset at him not shaking in fear at his threat, and the Namikaze knew that was what she was aiming for.
"No you don't. For now anyway," said Kurenai, as she didn't want to see her friend hurt, and was going to hurt Naruto if he did.
"Kurenai-san, I am not like all those perverts out there, who just do that type of thing, and because I don't your threats are meaningless," said Naruto, as he turned around, and was heading out the door leaving a shocked Kurenai along with several other Jounin too since no one ever talked that way to Kurenai before.
"He's right Kurenai-chan! Stop being such an Ice Queen," said Anko, as she saw Kurenai give her a glare, but sighed in defeat, and let Anko have her way while hoping her friend didn't get hurt by all this.
'I hope you're right Anko. I don't know what I would do if you got hurt,' thought Kurenai, as she saw Anko walk off, and turned to her student while the other girls went to their own.
She had a training regiment to setup for her student.
(Namikaze Estates-Hours Later)
Naruto entered his home with Yugito in tow, as he knew that there was no safer place in Konoha, then his own home, and told her that while she was here to tell no one of the treasures it held. As expected, she along with Nibi was surprised to see HK-47, and was told the story of Naruto's ancestry. Yugito was skeptical at first, but the Lightsabers that Naruto wielded, and HK-47 did have some form of proof to his story.
Then Yugito met Asta.
Asta was happy to have her old feline friend around, even if she was locked away in a human vessel, but then again she was in a female human vessel meaning she could be with Naruto if she so desired. Meanwhile Nibi used Yugito to bombard Asta with all sorts of question from how she got free, to her name, and finally if there was a way to get feline form out of Yugito without killing the sweet girl?
Asta had told Nibi there was a chance, but would require some research into the matter since her friend was not as strong as she was, and one false move could spell the end for the both of them. Nibi was a little upset, but she knew that she could wait a little longer considering the side effects of what Asta went through to gain her freedom.
"Master, I am most curious about this situation you have with all these women, and if it is wise to have so many in your house. The calculated risk of them telling others of your family's secret origins is most high in this case," said HK-47, as he needed to protect his Master from being killed by those that learned of his secrets, and it was only through the women inside of his Master's home would that happen.
"They won't divulge anything HK. I have foreseen it. However, to lower the calculated risk, I will have you make updates to the Estates defenses inside, and outside of it," said Naruto, as he knew that HK-47 had some reasonable point in all of this, and decided to calm the droids processor systems.
"I will do that immediately Master," said HK-47, as he set out to take care of his duties, and his new orders by Naruto.
"Naruto-kun!" said Haku, as she tackled him, and kissed him on the lips with tongue.
"Hello Haku-chan. Training hard I hope?" said Naruto, as he saw Haku nod, and felt the stare of her adoptive Father plus brothers looking at them.
"Haku told me you and her were intimate the other day. Don't hurt her or I will kill you slowly. Crazy powers or not!" said Zabuza, as glared at Naruto, and the Demon Brothers did the same.
"You sound like a broken holo-disk. Look, I know you along with those two have Haku's best interest at heart, but she's a smart now turned into woman, and I'm going to do all that I can to make her happy. So get off my back or I'll use the Force and have the three of you streaking through Konoha naked while yapping on about the greatness of the 'Spring Time of Youth' before making you sing about it with Maito Gai!" said Naruto making the three former Shinobi of the Mist turn green in the face before getting the hell out of the room.
"You wouldn't really do that, would you Naruto-kun?" said Haku, as she saw the smirk on his face, and she knew he would just to make a point to get them to back off.
"Who? Me? No. Well...only if they tried to stop us from getting married. Speaking, you don't mind I have another girl be a part of our family, do you?" said Naruto, as he saw Haku smile at him before kissing him lovingly, and held onto him tightly.
"Just as long as she makes you happy, I am fine with it, and since being around Asta, and the thought of another female presence added with your own is quite...interesting," said Haku, as she kissed his neck, and Naruto returned the favor.
"Naughty girl. I have to punish you for your naughty thoughts. In the mean time, I think you should learn the Echani Taijutsu fighting style, and the etiquette behind learning it," said Naruto in a husky voice that made Haku shiver, as she felt one of his hands on her rear, and the other on one of her breasts.
"Oh? How is that done?" said Haku, as she loved where this was going, and wanted to know more.
"We spare...in our undergarments," said Naruto, as he saw Haku's eyes widen, and the thought of it was turning her on.
"And the victor goes the spoils?" said Haku, as she had a lecherous look in her eyes, and Naruto's returned it with his own.
"I suppose we could amend that part into it. Are you up for it?" said Naruto, as he gave her rear another squeeze, and Haku moaned out in pleasure before moving her hips against his.
"For you? Always!" said Haku, as she couldn't take it anymore, and needed him badly.
"You won't be disappointed," said Naruto, as he took her to the sparring room with speed worthy of Maito Gai going fully green with envy, and Haku couldn't help herself when she let out a girlish squeal at his antics.
Oh yes, it was going to be quite the sparring session, and no doubt one of many in the Month to come.
(Hyuuga Compound)
Hyuuga Neji sat in his room fuming at his loss to Hinata, as he couldn't defeat her like he believed Fate would let him that day, and even more so when that Namikaze interfered in the final strike for whatever reason he had stated. The Hyuuga Elders had been displeased with him at the opportunity, which had presented itself to Neji on a silver platter, and had told him so privately.
Had it not been for the pain he was in, Neji had no doubt they would have used the seal on his forehead, and increased his suffering further had the results of doing so possibly being lethal.
'Hinata-sama may have one this time, but I will have my revenge on the Main Family, and if it isn't against her...then Hanabi-sama will have to do in her place!' thought Neji, as he winced in pain at making a fist, and narrowed his eyes in hate at the image in his mind of Namikaze Naruto appearing in his head.
Neji would have his revenge.
(Omake # 1-Aftermath of the Tenten VS Ino Fight)
Ino and Tenten were walking through the village talking about what they learned under Naruto along with what they might learn later on.
"I can't believe you defeated me in combat like that," said Ino, as she had to give Tenten credit for moving the way she did, and keeping her pinned down like that.
"Thanks! Naruto-kun taught it to me though I was the one that was pinned in order to learn it," said Tenten, as she saw Ino blush, and smirk at the implications of her words.
"Will you stop! Kami, you sound like you had sex with Naruto-kun!" said Ino, as she saw Tenten smirk further, and made the platinum blonde's eyes widen.
"Who says I didn't? For one that pinning maneuver I used to defeat you? When he taught me that move, it really lit my fire when he had me at his mercy, and in case you haven't figure it out...its not really a fighting maneuver," said Tenten leaving Ino with her jaw open and a finger pointing at the now laughing weapon user.
(End Omake)
(Omake # 2-Hinata VS Neji)
'Oh no!' thought Hinata, as she clutched onto her jacket fearfully, and saw the same look on her sensei's face.
'Oh no!' thought Kurenai, as she looked at Naruto, and saw a grim looking expression on his lips like he knew what was going to happen.
"OH YEAH!" said Kool-Aid smashing through a wall with a gallon of Kool-Aid in his hand.
There was a pause.
"THAT'S NOT FUNNY ANYMORE!" yelled Naruto, as he used the Force to obliterate the giant drink icon, and sprayed the red juice all over the place.
"This blood tastes strange, yet surprisingly...refreshing!" said Gaara, as he licked some of it off his face, and his siblings with sensei looking at him with fear.
(End Omake)
(Omake # 3-The End of the Super Pervert Era)
"All we need now is a giant pool of mud for these girls to roll around in and this would be perfect for my next book," said Jiraiya, as he was giggling perversely, and was going to write it all down in his research notes had he not felt the invisible vice grip on his nuts by Naruto
"Ero-Sennin, do you know what my favorite ballet is?" said Naruto, as he kept his hold on the Super Pervert, and the man was pleading in a squeaky voice to show him mercy.
"Come on Naruto-kun. There's no need to be so rash, right?" said Jiraiya, as he ignored Anko's cheers for Naruto in teaching the Super Pervert a lesson, and told him to do it.
"It's...THE NUTCRACKER!" yelled Naruto, as he made a crushing motion with his hand, and the cries of Jiraiya along with the movement from all the males in the room covering their privates could be heard all over.
Thus, the era of Jiraiya the Super Pervert was over, and an area where women could bathe in the hot springs in peace had begun!
(End Omake)
(A/N: YAY! I updated my fic. I feel such joy in my world. Kick ass! I hope that you all enjoyed this chapter.
