Chapter 9: Graduation

10 Years till Canon

Naruto hummed as he sat on his father's head. Yesterday had been the Academy Graduation, it seemed like the past three months had just flown by. Not only that but it seemed like the past two years since his desire to restart the Shinobi Era had gone by in a flash. After two years he would have his first batch of Genin, his first group of Shinobi to aid him in the creation of a better world. He did not doubt that many more would soon follow, in time his Village would prosper with an army of thousands of capable Shinobi. It would not be entirely impossible to amass such a force in the upcoming years, especially with the number of children being brought into the village, it would simply be a struggle. He expected when he started planning raids on the Slave Auction houses, Warehouse's even the so called holy land Mariejois, Uzu would find itself home to hundreds of new recruits.

As his force expanded no doubt the number of refugees arriving in Uzushiogakure would expand as well, seeing a substantial boost in population. He was estimating he could build a shinobi force of close to three thousand Shinobi by the time he was ready to begin his plans. Of course his force wouldn't just include Shinobi he was starting to think about creating another academy, specifically for those who wished to fight for Uzu but were too old to have their chakra unlocked. There they would be taught Taijutsu and Bukijutsu seeing as the two arts did not require the use of chakra while studying the fighting methods of the present in order to bolster Uzu's military might.

Naruto thought this to be a sound plan, as he had already spoken to one or two new members of Uzu who had found refuge in his village. The two he had spoken to as of late had led past lives as Marine's but left when they discovered how truly corrupt the World Government was. Naruto thought by only having a military of chakra users it would significantly limit the size of Uzushio's forces, by adding to Uzu's military soldiers who did not rely on chakra he could easily triple Uzushio's, Military Might. He also made a note to begin the creation of a Research and Development department, combining today's technologies with the applications of chakra, if he could combine the two it would be a godsend. Chakra was incredibly versatile and if it could be combined with current technology, Uzu would stand at the apex of a new technological age. He made a mental note to speak to Dominic about it, although young the boy was incredibly intelligent, having already added the application of seals to his weaponry.

Naruto had gone over the numbers in his head, it would be hard to bolster a military force of ten thousand able bodied, but with enough hard work and careful planning, it was doable. He would have to look at just for the Shinobi Academy alone a total of three hundred Genin graduating each year to make up the numbers. Then there were the non-chakra users who would make up the bulk of Uzu's military, he would need close to seven hundred capable warriors added into service each year. Those were ideal numbers, but he would be pushing to even reach those numbers during the first few years. Realistically for the first few years, he would like at least a hundred new genin and triple that in non-chakra wielders. As time grew closer to the beginning of his goals, he would have to bolster it to close to three thousand men and women entering Uzu's service every year, up to five hundred of those recruits would need to be chakra wielders.

Of course, by allowing Refugee's from around the world to take up citizenship in Uzu, he was expecting a fraction of them to have some knowledge of self-defense. He could then capitalise on their current knowledge and build upon it. Perhaps he should see if he could recruit Marines who were disgruntled with the current regime, he made sure to note to not just look at Marine's, but those who had been jilted by the current World Government. Surely they would be a few thousand who would gladly move to Uzu if it meant taking up arms against the corrupt.

Naruto released a small sigh as he thought of his plans for the future, every time he ticked one item off his list of things to do, ten more seemed to jump on. For now, he could only hope for the best and do what he could. He allowed his thoughts to drift ahead from the future, back to the present. He couldn't help but smile as he reflected on this year's graduating class. Graduating from the academy was twenty-two young and eager recruits between the ages of ten and twelve, each of them were promising Shinobi and Kunoichi. They were all exceptional, each of them stronger than he was as a Genin. If he were to compare some could even give Neji a run for his money back during his Genin days.

Naruto had spent the night going over the recruits in order to sort them into their teams. Using the knowledge he had on team formations from the shinobi villages he would create his dream teams. He would make sure to pair the Genin with those they could work alongside with, splitting rivals and enemies apart. He would also take into account their abilities making sure to pair them with Genin who could compliment their strengths and cover their weaknesses. He was also looking at combat styles, long range, mid-range and close range, one type of fighter per team.

Of course, then there was the three Genin Odin, Shiina and Yamato. He didn't want the other Genin to feel neglected or jealous if they were on a team with them. The three had a potential like nothing he nor his memories had ever seen. He wanted to bring that potential out, not squander it. So he would put them on a single team together, an Advanced Genin Team like nothing this world had ever seen. The new generation would surpass the old, and he would see to it.

Naruto sighed as he tucked his hands into his pockets and stood up, taking a step towards the edge of his father's face, he then allowed himself to fall. He plummeted to the ground at break neck speed landing with a loud boom. He landed in a crouched position, web like cracks forming in the earth beneath him from the point of impact. The Uzukage began to stand rolling his shoulders. He stretched his limbs as he turned and looked up towards the Hokage Mountain. He could see a number of his clones working on the mountain.

Next to the past Hokage's they were slowly adding his face with the Uzushiogakure symbol. Below that they were beginning to sculpt the faces of the Kage from his time. In order the Godaime Kazekage Gaara, the Godaime Mizukage Mei Terumi, the Yondaime Raikage A and the Sandaime Tsuchikage Ohnoki. So far they were close to finishing Gaara's face and had begun sculpting Mei Terumi's. Each of the past Kage faces was half the size of the Hokage's and his own. At the bottom of the mountain, they would then add scale sized faces of all the other past Kazekage's, Mizukage's, Raikage's and Tsuchikage's. Due to the small size, it ensured they did not take up too much room, and this way he could still honour them.

"Make sure to detail out Mei's hair accurately, I want you also to pay attention her facial feature's, we need to portray her beauty accurately." shouted Naruto up at his clones, getting a salute from all but one, who only flipped him off, cheeky clones.

Naruto sighed again, he had planned to be finished with the mountain face weeks ago, but he had pushed it aside, along with the Shinobi Monument in order to train Suzuka. He was preparing her to undergo the Chunin Exams he had been preparing. If she passed his test she would be the first Chunin, from there he would look to having her teach at the Academy. He wanted to see if she could handle being a teacher, as when she obtained the rank of Jounin he was eager to assign his protégé her own team. He looked forward to seeing the future of his first recruits, to see what path they would choose.

Naruto with all the time he was focusing on Suzuka, had yet to even make the canal up to the middle of Uzu, luckily the Merchant wouldn't arrive for some time. Naruto had wanted to finish off a few projects within the village before he allowed the Merchant access, it would not do to allow an outsider to see the village in its incomplete state. Looking up at the Kage mountain he smiled, he could use with an earth technique to make the faces, but he felt like it would be more respectful to hand carve their faces.

"Make sure not to miss a single detail. Thicken up the lines around Gaara's eyes!" Ordered Naruto as he looked at Gaara's face on the mountain, the lines indicating his insomnia weren't quite thick enough. A clone turned and blew a raspberry before flipping the original off. Naruto's right eye began to twitch, and without a word, he dispelled the clone.

"Boss shouldn't you be heading to the academy to announce the teams?" Asked one of the clones as he stopped working on Gaara to remind the original.

Naruto looked up at the sun, using its position to figure out the time. His eyes widened the team announcements were in fifteen minutes. He locked onto a Hiraishin marker and vanished in a flash of white.


Uzushiogakure Academy

Naruto appeared in a flash of white at the Uzushio Academy. The Academy was large, the size of a small town, capable of holding up to a one thousand students. Naruto supposed he was a little optimistic when he created it, but in time he hoped they would be able to fill the walls with many eager recruits. He had made to sure add a number of training fields and dojos along with private training rooms that the students could book with teacher supervision. The exception to this was that those in their final years could use the rooms without supervision, as long as they received permission.

The sheer size of Academy Library ensured it was capable of occupying close to three hundred students comfortably. He had used his clones to create scrolls containing every single Jutsu he knew ranked E to S. TheAcademyy provided E to low B ranks. The E and C could be accessed by everyone however low B ranks could only be accessed by the graduating class. Anything Mid B to S rank was stored in the Uzushiogakure Shinobi Library next to the Uzukage Tower, able to contain close to ten thousand occupants at a time. The library only allowed Genin to access mid to high B rank techniques, for Low A to High A one needed to be Chunin and above, S rank techniques could only be obtained by Jonin. Any type of Kinjutsu (Forbidden Technique) he kept safely stored in a hidden vault in the Uzukage tower, such as the Kuchiyose: Edo Tensei. For Kinjutsu he would be very selective as to who had access to them.

Of course students could get permission from their teachers for anything Mid to High B, which would then have to be approved by two other teachers, lastly the Uzukage, meaning he had the final say. If he approved it the teacher would escort the student to the Shinobi Library where they would be allowed to pick the assigned number of techniques. Seeing as currently he was the only instructor available, his clones could give permission if asked, and would escort the student or students to the library.

Currently only three students had requested permission and been allowed access to the Uzushiogakure Library. The three granted permission access had been Odin, Shiina and Yamato. All three Academy students were so far above their peers it hadn't surprised him when he had gotten the requests two months ago, in fact he had been waiting for the requests. He had approved it for each student to be allowed access to three upper tier B rank techniques nothing else. He had his clones escort them, but had decided not to note the techniques they had decided to learn, he wanted to be surprised.

Naruto made his way through the Academy heading to the ceremonial classroom where all teams would be assigned. He forced his way into the building making his way to the classroom, already detecting four reasonably large chakra signatures, one happened to be his clones.

Naruto stood outside the classroom and slid the door open and walked on in. His clone had acknowledged him before it dispersed in a cloud of smoke. Naruto turned to face the chakra signatures finding they belonged to the three Academy students on his mind.

Sitting at the front was the eleven year old Shiina. Shiina was short for her age being only 4'5" in height. She had a slender petite frame, snow white skin and vibrant pink iris. The girls white hair was tied up in a bun with what appeared to be two sealing tags attached to each side of the bun. She was wearing a cyan blue battle kimono that reached her ankles. The kimono had slits up the sides reaching half way up her thighs giving her room to manoeuvre. Her forehead protector had been modified into a belt tied around her waist keeping her kimono closed. Even though she was only eleven, she was beginning to blossom into a beautiful young woman, no doubt when she was older she would be turning many heads.

Three rows behind Shiina was the youngest of the group, Odin. Odin had gravity defying blonde hair with what appeared to be dark blue streaks running through it, his chocolate brown hues seemed to twinkle with wonder. The boy was tall for his age standing at five feet in height. The boy was wearing a face mask covering the nose down. He was wearing navy blue Anbu style trousers with a long sleeved black kimono style top. In a way the kid reminded him of Kakashi. In fact he could swear the kid modelled himself after his old sensei. He even wore similar fingerless gloves with metal plates his sensei used to wear during his jounin days. As he looked closer he spotted two large scrolls on the boy's back and two smaller scrolls hanging from each of his shoulders. His forehead protector was tied around his forehead.

Last was the oldest of the three who was up the back on the right looking out a window, with an impassive crimson gaze. Yamato was the tallest out of the group standing at five foot five. The kid had grown his brown hair out as it now reached his shoulders tied in a samurai style ponytail. The boy was wearing fingerless dark red gloves and on the back was metal plates with the Uzushiogakure symbol, it looked like the boy had melted his forehead protector down and modified them for his gloves. The boy was wearing long black hakama pants with bandages tied around the shins to keep the legs from flapping about. He was wearing a dark red kimono style shirt with half sleeves. He had a black Haori sitting on his shoulders, his arms out of the sleeves. Around his waist was a shinobi belt with a dark red scroll attached. On each leg he wore a single weapon holster.

The three noticed the clone dispersing after the arrival of the real Uzukage but chose not to say anything. Naruto sweat dropped, what kind of reaction was that? He grumbled as he stood behind the desk at the head of the classroom waiting patiently. It wasn't long before more graduates began to spill into the room each greeting him as they took their seats. The class looked incredibly large with only twenty two students sitting in it, seeing as it was capable of seating three hundred graduates.

Amongst the twenty two graduates, besides the three Naruto already was aware of, one other Genin stood out amongst the crowd. The student was a twelve year old boy with short spiky teal hair. The boy had emerald green eyes with a tan brown pigmentation underneath. The boy was wearing a three quartered sleeve light brown kimono top with black trousers. The kid had a belt around his waist with three flintlock pistols on each side. On his back in a cross shape was two more flintlocks, one a short ended rifle the other a sawed off flintlock shotgun. The kid had ranked as high as the other three star students who had graduated this year.

"Congratulations to each and every one of you! You are now proud Shinobi of Uzushiogakure no Sato! During your time here you have worked hard and been pushed to your limits. Many of you were pushed to your breaking points, but did you give up? No! You continued on surpassing your limits to become the Shinobi and Kunoichi you are today! As of this moment you are no longer young boys or girls you are young men and women! The moment you had put on your forehead protectors you became adults!" Naruto's voice carried over the graduating class as he eyed each and every one of them. He looked upon each of them with pride.

"I am proud to have been your teacher and now your leader. I look forward to your service under my command. I know you will do me proud, you will do Uzu proud. We will show the world the strength of Uzushiogakure no Sato! We will usher in the Great Age of Chakra. We will be the ones to bring peace! You have all seen the cruelty of this world. The World Government is a stain upon the world which must be removed. The Marine's follow the code of 'Absolute Justice', but they are nothing by hypocrites. They allow themselves to be bought off when they feel it suits them, they allow Slavery to run rampart! No more!

With your help our dreams will come true, all strife will be wiped from this world, the corrupt will be cleansed and the Cycle of Hatred which exists will be extinguished replaced by a new Cycle of Peace! The World Government shall be crushed!" roared Naruto the Genin shouted out in agreement, his speech inspired them as their chakra flooded the room. Naruto allowed his own chakra to come off as a drip as the chakra of all twenty three shinobi engulfed the classroom in a bright blue flame.

Naruto sealed off his chakra, followed by his students, "Each each of you will be sorted into Team of 4, 3 Genin and 1 Jonin Sensei. Each team will be supplied with a transformed clone. I expect you to be courteous and respectful of each clone."

"Of course as you already know we have an odd number. However that has been dealt with as Dominic," Naruto pointed towards the teal haired boy with the flintlock arsenal.

"Dominic will be taken as an apprentice under Shukaku. Dominic, your Sensei, is waiting for you at your regular meeting spot."

The gun wielding Genin stood up giving a polite bow to his leader before he vanished in a swirl of leaves, a leaf Shunshin. Some of the Genin showed sign of notable jealousy, but that soon passed.

Naruto looked at the faces of his graduates, the prideful twinkle in his eyes never leaving. He soon began to draw in the surrounding nature chakra. Instead of pouring it into his own body he focused it into the air moulding it into the shape of a clone.

"Senpo: Kage Bunshin No Jutsu (Sage Art: Shadow Clone Technique)" this was a variation of his Senpo: Onmyōton: Kage Bunshin no Jutsu unlike the living breathing clones, these were much like your normal Kage bushin, but they were a lot more durable, the only way to get rid of them was if he dispersed them, they ran out of chakra or were killed. Like normal Kage Bunshin the strength of the clones was only equal to the amount of chakra poured in, where his Senpo: Onmyōton: Kage Bunshin no Jutsu held close to a quarter of his strength.

The chakra moulded beside him and in a puff of smoke appeared none other than his old Sensei Hatake, Kakashi. The clone of his former Jonin Sensei looked exactly like Kakashi from the hair down to his lazy mannerism. The clone was hunched over slightly with a lazy expression; it even had a face mask and its headband down over one eye.

Naruto proceeded to do the same creating clones with the appearances of Gaara, Darui, Ao, Kurotsuchi and Sasuke Uchiha. The five clones appeared in puffs of smoke taking a position around Naruto. Each of the six clones would be using similar training methods in order to make sure each Genin received the necessary training. He didn't have to transform his clones, but he felt it would be necessary when he sent the teams out to the surrounding Kingdom's within the coming month.

By having each team led by a clone Henge'd as a Shinobi from his past, it would create the illusion that Uzushiogakure had a powerful Military. If he had a clone with his appearance go on missions, or visit the surrounding islands with his team's, they may realise it was just him and his students, that may cause some of the braver Kingdom's to try and attack Uzushiogakure. Of course, with Isobu and Gyuki, along with the Whirlpool defences it was their funeral, but better to be prepared. The month would also give time for the team's to get use to calling his clones by their aliases so during missions they wouldn't slip up and accidentally address his clone incorrectly.

"As you have noticed, there are only six clones, but there will be seven teams. One of these teams the training will be handled by me personally, instead of a clone."

Murmurs began to spread about the classroom. Naruto waited for the class to settle down before he began to call out the teams.

"Team 1 under Hatake, Kakashi Clone…." He began to list off the students for each team, Team 2 Gaara, Team 3 Darui, Team 4 Ao, Team 5 Kurotsuchi and Team 6 Sasuke. The students were ushered away with their sensei, the moment their names were called and as the class got smaller and smaller, everyone grew anxious to see who would be on Team 7. As team 6 left, Odin, Shiina and Yamato shared a look with one another. There looked at one another in surprise, not expecting to be on a team together.

"Odin, Shiina and Yamato congratulations you are the new Team 7" congratulated Naruto as he took a step forward the three Genin heading down to the front of the classroom to stand in a line before their leader.

"As of this moment Team, 7 will be known as Team Naruto." He was following a tradition, Konoha teams tended to name themselves after their sensei, Team Kakashi, Team Hiruzen, Team Gai, Team Tobirama and Team Minato just to name a few. So in honour of that tradition, he would do the same as would his clones.

"Thank you Naruto-sensei, " said the three Genin simultaneously as they bowed.

"Beware I will not go easy on you. I will train you into the ground, at the end of every day, you will be in so much pain you will wish you were dead! I will train each of you. Equally, I will not play favourites! You will not demand anything of me! You will follow all of my commands! Am I understood Genin!" shouted the sage as he looked down at his three students who seemed visibly shaken by his declaration, "I SAID AM I UNDERSTOOD GENIN!"

"YES SENSEI" replied the three Genin as quickly as possible.

"Good, meet me immediately at the Uzumaki Clan Compound for our first training session together" with that the sage vanished in a flash of white using his Hiraishin to vanish from the Academy. His students quickly scrambled towards the Uzumaki Compound to meet up with their new sensei, they each had the desire to impress their leader.


Uzumaki Clan Compound

Suzuka hummed as she leaned back on one of the many lounges that resided in the living room of the Uzumaki Clan Compound. She had opted to wear a simple long black kimono as she read a book on seals for amateurs. She was so engrossed in her book she hadn't realised Naruto had suddenly flashed in. Catching the white from the corner of her eye she screamed and fell off the couch at the sage's sudden arrival. She groaned as she looked up at her teacher who was giving her an apologetic stare.

"Ah sorry, Suzu-chan didn't mean to scare you" apologised the sage as he helped Suzuka to her feet, pulling her up off the ground.

Suzuka playfully hit Naruto on the shoulder for scaring her. The sage responded by rubbing the back of his head sheepishly at his actions, making the girl pout.

"Mou I wish you'd stop doing that, warn me next time you Hiraishin in so unexpectedly" barked the young Kunoichi folding her arms over her chest giving the kage a stern look, only making him laugh in response. She was annoyed with him popping in all the time, their were seals in place around the compound he would invoke to alert her to his coming presence, but he never did. It was like he enjoyed scaring her. She would have to look at getting back at Naruto, perhaps she would withhold his Ramen, that would show him.

"Hai, Hai Suzu-chan" he patted her on the head getting a playful glare from his student in response.

Suzuka pushed the hand away as she returned to her seat, grabbing the book she had been reading along the way. She sat down folding her legs under her.

"Team assignments went well I take?" enquired the raven haired youth, never looking up from her book. Fuinjutsu wasn't her exact area of expertise, but she wanted to increase her proficiency in the art of seals before she underwent her Chunin exams. It never hurt to have some skill in the other Shinobi arts.

"I think they did. I look forward to seeing everyone's progress over the coming months" answered the sage as he opted to remain to stand, his arms folded over his chest.

"What did you decide concerning those three?" asked Suzuka turning a page as she referred to Shiina, Odin and Yamato. She was eager to see if her sensei had placed them on the same team together, just on their Academy Reports she expected great things from them.

"In the end I decided to take the three on as my students, putting them on one team. While they may not follow the formations I was initially attempting to make one long range, one middle range and one close range combatant per team, I'm sure they will be fine" replied the sage leaning back into the couch to relax. He was already devising a training plan for his three new students.

"I look forward to training alongside them" The raven haired girl turned a page in her book.

"Naruto-sensei we're here" whispered the soft spoken Shiina as she approached through the main hallway with her two teammates in tow. The girl was shyly poking her fingers together.

Naruto had barely heard her, thanks to his heightened senses. Naruto caught sight of her two team-mates, Yamato flanking to the left behind her, while Odin stood beside her. Yamato was on guard, never allowing it to drop, while Odin was looking around the compound in awe at the sheer size of his home.

Naruto clapped his hands together as he turned to face his three students, "Welcome to my home. Allow me to introduce you to a fellow student, and your senior Suzuka" spoke the sage as he held his hands out to point towards Suzuka who had put her book down.

Suzuka bowed after putting her book down. "Greetings it is a pleasure to meet you. Please treat me well."

"Pleasure to meet you Suzuka-sempai" whispered the shy Shiina as she looked down at the ground avoiding the girls gaze, fidgeting in her place as she gripped the end of her kimono.

"Hi, Hi nice to meet you Sempai!" barked Odin with a small bounce in his step, he even waved at her as a beaming smile formed in place. Suzuka couldn't help but chuckle at his energy.

"It is an honour" came the monotone voice of Yamato as he bowed politely, keeping his guard up. It wasn't that he didn't trust his team-mates or sensei; he just wanted to be ready for anything.

Naruto couldn't help but respect the eldest of his three new students. He wasn't dropping his guard, allowing himself to be ready at a moment's notice for battle, as a Shinobi should be. His other two students, Odin was completely relaxed his guard completely down, where as Shiina even though she seemed a little shy, was looking up at her surroundings now and then.

"Now why don't we introduce ourselves starting with our name's, likes, dislikes, hobbies, abilities and dreams" announced Naruto, remembering his introductions with his Team back in the day.

Naruto proceeded to flop into an arm chair beckoning his students to take a seat in one of the many chairs and lounges in the living room. Odin sat down opposite him, Shiina took a seat next to Suzuka, while Yamato opted to remain standing. Naruto would have to look at getting the boy to relax a little, sure he respected the kid for being ready, but he needed to loosen up.

"I'll go first. As you know my name is Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto, but it's Naruto-sensei to you. I like Uzu, everyone in the village, Suzu…" he received a blush from his eldest student, "The Biju, training, ramen and helping people. I dislike Slavery, The World Government, Marine's, those who continue the cycle of hatred and the three minutes it takes to cook instant Ramen. My hobbies include training, exploring the world and hanging with my precious people. I have many abilities, but I mainly specialise in Elemental Ninjutsu. My dreams for the future are to create an Era of Peace and turn Uzu into the strongest nation!"

Naruto then turned and pointed to Suzuka, "Why don't you go next Suzu-chan, introduce yourself to your fellow students" he gave his older student an eye smile as she put her book down.

"As Naruto said, my name is Suzuka. I am seventeen year's old. I like training, reading, learning new things, Naruto-sensei and my precious people" she started, all the while ticking off in her head those she was close to Kuroka, Shirone, Matatabi, Kurama and the other Biju, "I dislike Slavery, Tenryubito, Pirate's and those who disobey the law. My hobbies include reading and flower arranging. I mainly specialise in Genjutsu, Bukijutsu and Ninjutsu specifically Earth, Wind and Water techniques. My dreams for the future to help create a peaceful world and to one day have a family" the last part she thought to herself not wanting to announce it to the world.

Naruto began to clap for his eldest student smiling all the while, "Thank you Suzu-chan. Odin-kun why don't you go next.'

"Yes Sensei!" shouted the blonde haired youth as he leapt to his feet, he was just a bundle of energy.

"My name is Odin no last name. I like lightning, rain, sword's, seals and Ninjutsu. My dislikes are those who look down on the sword! My hobbies are training in Kenjutsu, learning new seals, studying seals and creating new seals. I specialise in Lightning Elemental Ninjutsu, Lightning Based Kenjutsu and Fuinjutsu. My dream for the future is to become the best swordsman and to help create a peaceful world!" Odin all but shouted before he flopped back into his chair with a massive grin, running a finger across the bridge of his nose.

Naruto couldn't help but smirk; the kid did remind him of himself. He had been so loud during his Genin year's, boasting about becoming Hokage, Naruto just couldn't help but make comparisons. Odin almost seemed to have the same energy he had, almost if the boy was his son.

"Thank you Odin, I look forward to helping you achieve your goal." Naruto received a nod from his student as he turned his eyes towards the female of his new team

"Shiina–chan let's hear from you now." He gave the girl a warming smile, getting a small nod from her. The petite young girl slowly climbed to her feet, making sure to straighten out her kimono. As she straightened out her clothing, Naruto couldn't help but notice Odin's gaze towards the older girl. The boy seemed to be enthralled by her beauty, perhaps Naruto could play a little match making.

"My name is Shiina, no last name. I like flowers, art work, music and tea. I dislike Marine's and Pirates" Her words were full of venom when she brought up the two factions of the world, "My hobbies include tea ceremonies, painting and flower arranging. I specialise in Iryo Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and Kekkei Ninjutsu. My dream for the future is to become the greatest medic since Tsunade-sama and Sakura-sama" announced the young girl. She gave a polite bow before meekly returning to her seat. During the entire introduction she spoke in a soft tone, her gaze cast down to avoid looking at the other's, as if she was unsure of herself.

"Well done Shiina-chan I look forward to working with you" announced the sage as he leaned back in his chair, looking over the albino girl and his youngest student. Odin was averting his gaze but had a small blush on his cheeks; he fancied the girl. Naruto made to note to try and get the girl out of her shell a little.

"Now then, Yamato-kun why don't you say a few words." The Kage smiled at his final student who was sizing the other four occupants up; Naruto could see a thousand different thoughts racing through the boy's crimson red hues.

Yamato cleared his throat as he rested a hand on his hip. He began to size up his fellow students, looking over all three with a calm exterior.

"Yamato no last name. I have few likes, fire and summer to name a few. I have few dislikes the cold being one of those dislikes. As for hobbies, I enjoy creating new Fire Elemental Techniques. I specialise in Katon Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and various forms of Bukijutsu. As for my dreams, I want to be strong" spoke Yamato in a bland monotone voice, showing not a single shred of emotion, Naruto was almost reminded of Sasuke.

Naruto brought his hands together smiling brightly at his three students, "Now that introductions have been finished…let the torture begin!" He couldn't help but smirk at the horrified expressions of his new students; he was looking forward to the training sessions to come.
