Review Bin

Taiki- Enjoy!

Not much was needed to change this chapter for this version of the Ascendancy of a Legendfic, I may receive complaints, but that can't be helped. I have done what I could for this.

Now without further delay. Chapter 13 Jahime!!!

Chapter 13- Final Exam Tournament and Revealed Surprises

-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-

6:30 A.M Konoha Hospital

Tayuya, Kin, Temari, Ayame, and Hinata left early that morning to go make last minute preparations for the final exam.

Before leaving, Temari and Tayuya gave Anri a kiss on the cheeks, Hinata and Kin also gave Naruto kisses on his cheeks, lastly, Gaara would receive kisses on the cheeks by Ayame.

Hinata went back to the Hyuuga compound to get dressed for the last exam that was to be held at 10 A.M today. In the past month of training, she had learn many medical jutsus as well as immense chakra control to increase the power of her strikes. This however couldn't be used in combination with Jyuuken strikes yet.

Kin and Tayuya went to their apartment to change clothes as well as freshen up. Both would just hope Naruto and Anri give their all, since after their match only one will either move on, or possible tie if lucky, but highly unlikely.

Ayame wnet home to change as well, but unfortunately, she and her father would still have a half day's work load to do before they could go to the stadium to watch the exam matches. They however din't woory, for they were certain they'd catch Naruto and Anri's match, Teuchi was anyway. Ayame, on the other hand, was pissed off at her father for insisting to work for half the day instead of taking the day off.

Lastly, Temari went back to the hotel that her sensei and younger brother, Kankuro were residing at, to change clothes and freshen up. She looked forward to seeing her Anri-kun fight an intense match with Naruto, and would be happy for the result no matter what it will be. She had a strong feeling that no match would end with the death of the opponent, since the Konoha shinobi were taught not to be heartless against their own comrades even if they were opponents. The only condition would be against defected members of Konoha, a strong possibility and someone hirely dreaded, but seemed less likely to happen.

Thirty minutes later

Gaara, Anri, and Naruto would be chatting amongst either, it would see that Kyuubi and Shukaku were alert on yesterday's conversation, for Gaara had a surprise to reveal

"I drop in the exam, but rather, to observe my village's allies" Gaara said calmly, surprising Naruto, Anri was half awake and wasn't shocked by such news.

"What do you mean by that?" Naruto asked in great curiousity.

"Shukaku told me while I was asleep that my father spoke about appointing me as successor to him as Kazekage. This gets Anri's attention now surprising him as Naruto was during Gaara's first statement.

"That's great to hear, glad the seal is keep Shukaku-teme in check" Naruto chuckled.

'Oh come on, you guys aren't going to hold my actions against me all the time' Shukaku whined within Gaara's thoughts and mindscape.

'Before the seal was strengthened, all that befalled us ws your fault teme...' Gaara would reply mentally. ' I may forgive you, but you have to agree to help me get stronger to protect Suna when I take command as Kazekage, do I make myself clear? Tanuki-teme?'

'Fine!' You guys always ruin my fun. Fuck!! Shakuku replies in a pout.

"Our match is last of the first round Otouto" Anri spoke calmly, "Let's give them a grand show." He would say with a smile.

"You got it Aniki!" Naruto replied in turn

"Good luck to you both, and thanks again, Uzumaki." Gaara says calmly but approaches Naruto and whispers "what is your aniki's name?"

"Anri Ryou" Naruto whispered back as Gaara nods and continues.

"Thank you also, Ryou" Gaara added

"No problem" Anri said calmly

"Glad to help" Naruto says sheepishly. Gaara smiled for the first time in ages in true happiness before disappearing within a Suna style of the Shunshin no Jutsu.

Anri and Naruto decide to get their things together, freshen up, and head for the arena. Both had done much training over the past month and would surely provide a match that no one would ever forget

Naruto still couldn't use the Hiraishin too well, but is three fourths of the way figuring out the seals on the three pronged kunai. His taijutsu and Kenjutsu have improved much as well as his ninjutus courtesy of Rasengan and Kuchiiyose no Jutsu under the contract of the foxes. Also the fact being that Naruto could tap into the Kyuubi's chakra supply and call forth up to half the Kyuubi's power without harming his body, the drawback being exhaustion of chakra nonetheless.

Anri had mainly worked on ninjutsu, kenjutsu, and taijutsu also. He too could use the Kuchiyose no Jutsu under the contract of the Dragon of Katamaundo as well as Dragons themselves. Playing thinks safe would make it necessary for Anri not to attempt summoning the Grand Kata Dragon. Such a beast has the power of almost the Kyuubi himself, but the summoning has rumored to endanger the life of the summoner himself. In short, Anri refused to use such power unless against an enemy of the village rather than against his own otouto in the chunnin exam or anyone loyal to Konoha for the matter. He too could use a technique in appearance to the Rasengan, but it is based on Chakra and Kata fused. If used, Anri would only have three shots since that is how much power such technique takes. Also, said Rasengan-like technique must use two hands, but can be fired as a projectile instead of using it with a slamming palm strike.

Naruto and Anri weren't the only ones with a bag of new tricks however. In fat, this exam may prove to have many chances for promotion to chunnin rank.

Hinata and Sakura have advanced their chakra control and enhancement capabilities making them an even match in that department. However, Sakura has been taught how to open four chakra gates courtesy of Tsunade to stay on par with Hinata's bloodline abilities. All in all, it too would be a match with the tides fairing either way.

Sasuke has finally advanced his Sharingan to a matured state, the final state before the final stage of Sharingan known as the Mangekyou Sharingan. His concerns were not on that stage however, for he knew it a step in Itachi's footsteps if Sasuke would kill his best friend for the sake of power. Speed, taijutsu, ninjutsu, and kenjutsu courtesy of the fuuma windmill shuriken he wields have made him strong indeed. Of his ninjutsu, he was taught by Kakashi the Chidori, which wouldn't be used in this exam at all, and an advancement of the Chidori that would not be fatal to an opponent at will; Chidori Nigashi. However, if this were a life and death situation against an enemy, then and only then would Sasuke consider the Chidori Nigashi as a weapon of death to any of Konoha's enemies. Even with this, Sasuke knows that Itachi has ascended even farther in power more than likely, yet the reason unknown to him. It would be a horror to know that the Akatsuki and Dark Aura have been a united front for some time, but only Jiraiya knows of that and has yet to disclose the information, at least not yet.

Shino added kenjutsu to his bag of tricks, since his techniques beforehand were only his clan bloodline and inheritance. Wielding a set of twin katanas, Shino would be ready to show his new skills today at the exams.

Shikamaru would also have some new tricks at hand in terms of taking up kenjutsu. During the month he had received training from his sensei, Asuma under the art of the Shogee knives. Needlessly to say said weaponry complimented Shikamaru's fighting style as well as provide more to his strategic temperament.

Lastly, Rock Lee would also have taken up kenjutsu to add to his taijutsu. Using a staff, Lee can easily defend or attack opponents as well as combine taijutsu with kenjutsu within a nice flow. Thankfully, his kenjutsu style proves immune to Sharingan in his sake, for it was a mixture of a style Gai prefers against his rival, Kakashi. However, the immunity of the style against the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan was also be bloodline of Rock Lee. little is known of the bloodline expect that Lee can protect his taijutsu style from being copied by the eyes of Sharingan. In short, Lee would prove a good match against Sasuke.

Three hours later, Konoha Grand Stadium

Spectators from allied nations of Konoha as well as visitors from neutral countries fill the seats of the stadium. The participants were also present, but in the fighter waiting room to wait. For the Hokage and Kazekage had big announcements to give.

The jounin instructors stay with their remaining students in the stands to watch the exams. That of course made up of Maito Gai, Hayate Gekkou, Kakashi Hatake, Asuma Sarutobi, and Kurenai Yuuhi, all dressed in their usual attires. Also with the jounin were Rin, whom sat with Kakashi obviously, and Yugao, whom sat by Hayate.

Tsunade and Jiraiya would be with the Sandaime whom was seated in a tower within the arena along with the Yondaime Kazekage, his children, and the children's sensei, Baki. After taking a puff of his pipe, Sarutobi silence the cheering and ruckus of the crowd to gain their attention.

"I have a very important announcement, I, Sarutobi, your Sandaime Hokage, have enjoyed caring for you all, my precious village, but it is time for the torch to be passed. What I am saying is that I have appointed a Godaime Hokage." He said in a firm, loud voice as the crowd was shocked with silence. "I have elected my student, Tsunade, for the poition of Hokage!" Tsunade was indeed shocked by this, as was Shizune, whom just arrived in the Hokage's viewing area of the final exam with TonTon in her arms.

"...A week is all I wish to wait before I take the role, Hokage-sama" Tsunade says after finally getting over her shock. As she said this, the crowd erupted in cheers.

Fighters' waiting area

Sakura and Hinata were cheering happily for their friend and sensei (firend for Hinata and Sakura, but sensei for Sakura only for now.)

The boys just pai it no mind, wondering who Tsunade is anyway. However, a certain nine-tailed fox within the mindscape of Naruto decided to give some info.

'Tsunade is a wise choice due to being a Sannin and all, but said decision would be changed if people knew of her gambling and drinking addictions.' Kyuubi would chuckle within Naruto's mind

'So, some granny by the name of Tsunade is become Hokage in a week?" Naruto asked in return mentally

'Her age indeed makes her a granny as you say, but she wears a powerful genjutsu over her to make her look 30 years younger. Hence the strange jewel on her forehead. Her blond hair would be mixed with gray by now without that genjutsu.' Kyuubi would be rolling and laughing now, if that were possible.

'Tsunade-baachan eh, I am going to miss ojisan being Hokage..." Naruto thought before repling to Kyuubi, "Well, atleast he didn't choose Ero Sennin, thank Kami. "She better not be an old bitch."

Naruto was not certain, but he would have thought that Kyuubi was laughing his ass off about his statement of wonder if Tsunade was a bitchy lady. Said fox knew the truth and would have Naruto figure it out himself.

Back to the Hokage spectator area

Now the Yondaime Kazekage silence the crowd for his important announcement.

"Konoha, Suna, and all other citizens of the great shinobi nations. I, the Yondaime Kazakage of Sunagakure no Sato, allied nation to Konohagakure no Sato, announce my successor for the position of Godaime Kazekage." He motions to Gaara as Gaara rises, "My son, Sabaku no Gaara"

Strangely enough, everyone cheered, why? Because word was spread that Gaara was free from the bloodlust nature of the Shukaku and was a Jinchuriki equivalent to Naruto now that the seal holding the Shukaku has been strengthened. This however, got the attention of Two spectators near the top of the stadium, but out of anyone's detection of their presence

With the two spectators at the stadiums highest point

Two figures heard every bit of both announcements, the second being the most shocked. To have a Jinchuriki a village leader was a surprise, had there organization been known, it seems not for the moment, but both figures knew that Jiraiya of the Sannin was aware of the existance of the Akatsuki organization

Both figures wore a straw hat shielding their faces and also wore black cloaks with red clouds. One carried a strange sword.

"Seems we should inform Leader of this, Kisame..." the unarmed figure known as Uchiha Itachi spoke, his features still hidden under his hat, minus the omnious glow of his matured Sharingan that always seemed to be active. Kisame Hoshigaki, the man with the stange sword known as Samehada as well as being a former member of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist also nodded. His features were currently hidden too. Both disappear by means of Shunshin no Jutsu

Back to the Stadium

Genma had already Shunshined to where he'd be staning in the center of the stadium arena. At this time, the eight finalists for the exam would walk forth.

"You are the stars of this exam, you have done well to get to this point." Genma say calmly as he adjusts the senbon in his mouth. "Now, since Gaara has decided to drop, we have an even bracet tournament. This matches are as follows, Match 1: Sakura Haruno vs. Hinata Hyuuga. Match 2: Shino Aburame vs. Shikamaru Nara. Match 3: Rock Lee vs. Sasuke Uchiha. Match 4: Anri Ryou vs. Naruto Uzumaki." as the participants nod in approval, Genma spoke, "So the rest of you get back to waiting." He says with a smirk, "Only the combatants for Match 1 should be present currently." The other six Shunshin back into the waiting room as Sakura and Hinata stand a few feet from each other, each ready for the match.

Sakura wore a slightly different attire than she usually did as a kunoichi. She now and would wear a similar outfit, except it having a pink/white/red skirt at about one inch above the knee, her right leg having a kunai pouch strapped at the calf, black gloves, and grey elbow pads. Her Pink hair is medium length. She also has her hitai-ate around the top of her head, the cloth the color of red and silk in material minus the metal plate bearing the Konoha Leaf symbol. (Basically her part II look earlier than the timeskip)

Hinata was dressed in a mix of attire as a kunoichi and as the proclaimed Hyuuga Heiress. She wears her same dark blue ninja pants with her kunai pouch on her right thigh. She wears a lavender/gray long sleeve shirt. And she still wore her Hitai-ate around her neck. (Part II attire, minus the hair since it will take the timeskip to grow) Her new attire proves better than the fur coat she previously was known to wear.

"The first match of the final exam between Sakura Haruno and Hinata Hyuuga may now begin" Genma waves his arm commencing the match and also jumping back some to get out of the fighters' way

Upon the signal to begin, Sakura and Hinata clash with immense power as their punches clash with eachother. Both were using their chakra to enhance their strength and would both be near Tsunade's level of power. However, such a style is something the two girls still need work in. Nonetheless both kunoichi have caused many shockwaves of power by each blow that they clash with eachother.

Deciding to get serious, Hinata uses the full extent of her Jyuuken. As she gets a few hits on Sakura however, it seems to have little effect, for Sakura would force open her tenketsu points once sealed, then shield them consecutively.

Sakura then leaps back for a bit of distance to prepare a jutsu. Sakura Fubuki no Jutsu, at the last minute, Hinata defends with a Kaiten. Though the Kaiten would prove good against any technique, the explosive tag detonation of about ten kunai would knock Hinata into the wall. Hinata would rise, a bit shaken, but still able to fight nonetheless

Hinata would rush Sakura with immense speed unaware Sakura unleahed another Sakura Fubuki no Jutsu. At the last possible moment however, Hinata counters with a much more powerful Kaiten, Dai Kaiten, which reversed the blast effects from Hinata to repel upon Sakura with twice the force. Sakura would be sent into the wall behind her, relatively knocked out.

"Winner, Hinata Hyuuga" Genma would announce. The crowd was shocked by the power the two kunoichi showed, hence the stupified silence. However, after a few moments, the crowd breaks into applause.

Hinata blushes to the attention, yet shakes it off as she approaches Sakura and lifts her over her shoulder. She would whisper, "...great match Sakura-san, that jutsu of yours nearly had me, not to mention you attempted a second attempt to my surprise."

In the crowd

'Billboard brow got owned...' Ino would smirk after seeing how Hinata dealt with Sakura

'I am sure Naruto-kun is proud of you as I am, Hinata-san.' Kin would smile to herself, giddy about Naruto's match though it was to be the last match of the first round.

In the fighter waiting booth

'Hinata, you did well' Anri thought to himself as he applauded

"Good job Hinata-chan!" Naruto cheered happily.

'Very impressive, Hinata-san' Shino thought to himself silently as he applauds

Shikamaru was too busy staring at clouds

"Hn" Sasuke knew she was holding back, but was happy nonetheless for the match, for both Hinata and his Sakura-chan

"GOOD JOB SAKURA-CHAN, HINATA-CHAN! YOUR FLAMES OF YOUTH BURN BRIGHT WITH YOUR TERRIFIC MATCH!" Lee shouted

With the jounin.

'impressive... Both Sakura and Hinata have grown stronger and improved much.' Kakashi thought to himself while reading his Icha Icha Paradise.

'Well done Hinata' Kurenai smiled as she applauds. Happy for Hinata's growth.

Asuma applauds as he silently takes a puff of his cigarette.

Gai just made a nice guy pose, rambling about flames of youth and the match's combantants

Hayate merely applauded in silence.

Rin applauded happily, but would steal away Kakashi's book, thus their flirt war would begin throughout this final exam

Yugao smiles and applauds with Hayate. Enjoying her day off from ANBU duties

In the Kage booth

"Both did great!" Tsunade exclaimed with a smirk. "My training has served them both well"

This statement leaves Jiraiya, Sarutobi, Yondaime Kazekage, Gaara, Temari, Kankuro, and Baki in shock and surprise

Back to the arena

Sakura would nod tiredly and smile. As the two girls get back into the stands, Hinata heals Sakura up. Also, both would be congratulated by the others

"Goob job Sakura-chan" Sasuke said with a soft blush, "You've definitely gotten much stronger."

"Thanks Sasuke-kun" Sakura would say happily as she sat by him to watch the next match

"You did great Hinata-hime" Naruto would say happily, his princess comment making Hinata blush happily and reward him with a kiss on the cheek. She sits by Naruto to watch the following matches to come

The others either gave a nod of approval or said 'good job' however, Shikamaru mentioned something about the match appearing 'troublesome'

"Great... my match is next... troublesome..." Shikamaru mumbles to himself as he starts down the stairs to the arena, Shino of course doing the same.

Shino now wore a grey cloak that covered more of his face due to the hood, his sword lie hidden under his attire within sheath. Shino had taken the liking to swordsmanship as he also studied on surprise tactics, hiding his weapon then revealing it suddenly would shock the opponent. Therefore, Shino has more of the element of surprise on his side. (Minus the sword of course, this attire is from part II)

Shikamru wore charcoal black ninja attire as well as gloves with finger cut-offs. He has a small pouch hidden within his attire of course being where his Shogee knives lie hidden. The element of surprise wasn't something Shikamaru needed really, to him it is troublesome to think of anyway. Rather, he relies solely on his strategic prowess that he is well-known for.

With Genma

"Alright, time for the second match!" As Genma says this, the crowd roars in excitement. "Shino Aburame and Shikamaru Nara"

Said combatants enter the arena, each standing two feet from Genma, awaiting the start of this match

'Of all people I am stuck going up against Shino... what a drag...' Shikamaru thinks to himself.

"Match two between Shino Aburame and Shikamaru Nara shall now begin!" Genma does a backflip to get out of the combatants way

'He'll use his bugs... so I have to be on my toes... This is so troublesome' Shikamaru complained mentally as he just awaited the attack

Shino started things off by rushing in full force, however, he made a few handseals to call forth a mushi bunshin to appear within the trees, then he makes a few more handseals and kawarimied with his bug clone of himself, now the real Shino sat in a tree on the arena battlefield and the bug clone would deal with Shikamaru.

"Kagemane no Jutsu!" Shikamaru catches 'Shino' within the shadow paralysis technique of his clan. With a barrage of shuriken he had armed himself with prior, he hurls them at the frozen 'Shino' all hitting their target. "Kagemane Daibakuha no Jutsu" Shikamaru would make the Kikaichu bugs that spewed from the Shino bug clone explode as an angered Shino comes out with his katana in hand. Being the tactician that he is, Shikamara blocked the sword strike with his Shogee.

"It is over for you, Nara-san..." Shino spoke within monotone as his kikaichu bugs covered Shikamaru's body. Using his sword as a diversion for the bugs to latch on Shikamaru. However, hearing Shikamaru's next statement would stun Shino where he stood.

"Kagemaru no Jutsu!" The Shikamaru within the bugs disappeared revealing two kunai as the real Shikamaru had taken to the trees, this time to finsih the match.

"How...?" Shino spoke in slight shock

"I knew you'duse those bugs of yours, so I waited until they got within range. I had a bunshin in the trees that I just recently Kawarimied to" Shikamaru spoke boredly as he made movements with his hand. While they were mere movements for himself, Shino being controlled by the Kagemane no Jutsu would be motioned to hold his sword over the back of his neck. Then, with a flick of Shikamaru's wrist, Shino knocks himself out with the hilt of his katana.

"Winner, Shikamaru Nara!" The crowd was shocked hearing this, also being shocked by the defeat of the Aburame prodigy. Of course, Shino's clan was aware that going up against the Nara boy would have been worse without the swordplay Shino learned. Still, the main loss here was Shino was up against a battle genius.

"Up you go..." Shikamaru would lift Shino over his shoulder and carry him back to the participant watching booth as Hinata healed him. "Good match Shino"

"I must say Shikamaru, your tactics had me overwhelmed." Shino spoke calmly

"It's nothing, it still was too troublesome for me in my opinion." Shikamaru moaned as he stared at the clouds within the sky.

"Well still, congratulations you lousy bum!" Naruto said happilymaking everyone, including Shikamaru chuckle.

In the stands

"SASUKE-KUN'S MATCH IS COMING UP! GO SASUKE-KUN" Ino would cheer loudly while a nearby Choji blocked her noise out by eating chips, munching away without a care in the world

With Genma

Genma didn't bother calling down Sasuke and Lee since the crowd already knew their match was up. So Lee and Sasuke both jumped down from the participants wating booth and landed on the ground gracefully.

Sasuke still remained in his original attire; black shirt with the Uchiha clan symbol on the back, white shorts, ninja shoes, and not to mention his Sharingan was blazing and ready.

Lee also had his usual attire; the atrocious green jumpsuit he and his sensei like so much, both claiming it is great fashion. With his staff strapped on his back. Lee took his Goken stance.

"The third match between Rock Lee and Sasuke Uchiha shall now commence!" Genma steps back as to not be in the two fighters' way.

Upon the signal, Sasuke started making handseals as Lee stood ready. "Katon: Housenka no Jutsu!" Sasuke held his head back some as he spits out many fireballs that would attempt in throwing Lee off guard enough for a taijutsu onslaught. However, Lee did something he would never have been perceived by Sasuke.

"Konoha Daisenpu!" As Sasuke approached, Lee would unleash a fierce spinning heel kick at Sasuke's chest, missing by mere inches. Acting quickly, Lee continued, "Konoha Shofu!" Said uppercut would graise Sasuke a bit on the shoulder, since said Uchiha was nearly caught off guard. Lee took his stance once more.

'I wonder...' Sasuke thought to himself as he suddenly got an idea. After readying a barrage of kunai, Sasuke activates his Sharingan. As Lee dodges the thrown kunai with ease, Lee would soon be binded by the major points of movement.

'Impressive... I can't dodge this... but then again, if I know Sasuke like I think I do, I am sure he will follow up with another Katon jutsu... That's it' Lee braced his body to endure as much as Sasuke's next attack as possible.

"Katon: Ryuka no Jutsu!" Sasuke leans his head back for a moment, then leans forward once more with an open mouth, unleashing a wave of flames that travel along the Sharingan controlled windmill blades' wires to Lee. Lee grits his teeth proving his endurance. 'So much for his staff' Sasuke thought to himself as Lee's staff seemed to have cracked.

"Perfect..." Lee mutters as he prepares a surprise attack. Spewing from the staff would be chains to surround and bind Sasuke. He would also have his wraps undone some. Gurai Rensa!" Lee would hoist the shocked Sasuke into the air with the chains aid. AS Sasuke was free from the chains, Lee was free from the wires and would continue his onsluaght with a barrage of fierce punches. This type of taijutsu could be copied by Sharingan, but only the attack of punches due to the lack of the staff and chains. Lee finishes his barrages winding Sasuke a bit as he prepares a quick victory. By having his wrappings binding Sasuke once again, but this time, he pulls Sasuke close as he commences a seimics whirling headbutt into the ground of the arena. "Omote Renge- Primary Lotus!" Lee had a slight upper hand as he had accessed the first gate of chakra being open.

'Got to focus my chakra...' Sasuke pushes chakra into his body to cushion his fall, meaning he and Lee would take the same amount of damage. The exception being however, that Lee opened the second gate, now having cleared the Kaimon and Kyumon gates.

Sasuke then made a few handsigns quickly sensing an possible threat. Making the normal signs for Chidori, but finishing with a tiger seal. 'I was going to save this, but I must end this now...' Electricity forms in both of Sasuke's hands as he charges the now recovering Lee, he grabs Lee's shoulders sending a powerful current of electricity through Lee. It was a high does, but not fatal. Regardless, Lee passed out due to the pain. 'Fuck, so much for keeping my Chidori Nigashi as a surprise.'

"Sasuke Uchiha is the winner." The crowd roars with excitement. The excitement Sakura and Ino had reached its peak. As they would swarm him with love and applause. Not to mention also that the two kunoich planned on having one hell of a love session with their Sasuke-kun

At this time, Ayame and Teuchi Ichiraku arrive to the stands after closing the ramen stand from a half day's work.

"We made it just in time Tousan! I thought I would have had to kick your ass for working half a day instead of taking the day off" Ayame seemed annoyed, fearing she would have missed seeing the match between her Naruto-kun and Anri-kun.

Teuchi merely grinned sheepishly. Receiving a glare from Ayame.

Four other kunoichi would be in excitement now. However, for Naruto and Anri rather than Sasuke.

'Do your best Naruto-kun' Hinata and Kin thought at the same time.

'Do your best Anri-kun' Temari and Tayuya would share this thought at the same time as Kin and Hinata's thoughts of Naruto...

Ayame, Hinata, Kin, Tayuya, and Temari all had perverse thoughts of their respective lover as they wished them luck. Win or lose, they would surely get much loving tonight.

...Unknown to any of the spectators, Anri and Naruto would reveal many surprises during their match. They had agreed not to hold back and give their all...

-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-

This was a pretty long chapter. Phew... It would have been longer if I stuck with my original plan of writing all 7 matches. Lol

Chapter 14 will have the clash of Anri and Naruto. It will be one heck of a match. It will also work up to the conclusion of the final exam.

That is why my updates with the fic will take a week. The exception being mini chapters that don't necessarily have a need in the fic, more like extra fun.

Well, until next time

Later
