Madara raised a brow. Was Hashirama really chickening out and claiming Tobirama was at fault here? Hashirama shook his still raised hands in surrender.
"I swear! It was all Tobirama's fault!" Madara's brow raised further, as he turned to Tobirama. Tobirama shook his head with a sigh.
"Don't listen to him. He was the one who figuratively pushed Naruto into the arena." Madara smirked and looked back to Hashirama.
"A-hem." Someone cleared their throat. The three Kage and two Genin looked over to Hiruzen, who was glaring slightly at Madara. "Would you please continue the fight. We are on a schedule." Kiba leaped towards the proctor as Naruto and his revived shinobi turned to him.
"PROCTOR! I GIVE! I forfeit!" Hayate coughed a few times before nodding.
"Winner by forfeit, Uzumaki Naruto!"
Naruto angrily crossed his arms as he glared across the arena at Kiba, who was desperately trying not to look at the blond. He distantly heard Sakura's name being called, and absently sent a few cheers her way, all while still glaring at Kiba.
"Naruto-kun, stop glaring at the Inuzuka." Tobirama said, dropping a hand onto the blond's shoulder. Naruto huffed and tuned back into the match going on below, just in time to hear the proctor call out,
"We have a draw! As both contestants are unconscious, neither wins!" Naruto pouted down at the proctor, who ignored him in favour of calling out, "Next! Hyuuga Neji versus Hyuuga Hinata!"
Naruto's hands curled around the railing as he watched the two Hyuuga's go at it. His eyes were slowly narrowing into a murderous glare at Neji as the older Hyuuga started on and on about some fate crap and how Hinata should give up. Hinata looked on the verge of tears. Naruto shook with the force of his anger as he listened to Neji drone on and on.
"OH SHUT UP ALREADY!" Naruto shouted, effectively surprising the elder Hyuuga. "Geez don't you ever shut the hell up?! I mean, come on! Hinata's not weak! She's actually pretty cool!" He slammed a fist down onto the railings, and was about to continue when Tobirama once again dropped a hand onto his shoulder.
"Naruto-kun, that's enough." Naruto frowned, but nodded. He noticed that Hinata had stood up straighter, and was now rushing forwards. Only to get a palm strike to her...
"WHAT THE HELL NEJI!" Naruto screamed, pointing down at the Hyuuga, who stared up at him quizzically. Neji, having been distracted by Naruto's yells, looked to Hinata, and finally realized exactly what the blond was talking about. "Stop touching Hinata's boobs you freak!" Hinata blushed bright red before falling over in a dead faint. Neji himself felt his face heat up as he rubbed his hands on his shirt, as if it would clean them off. Madara snickered from his position behind Naruto, as did Hashirama, while Tobirama just introduced his hand to his face.
"Naruto-kun... you..." Tobirama started, but was unable to find the right words to describe the blond. So instead, he just settled for shaking his head in exasperation.
