Hey!
So here's the chapter. I hope you like it and remember:
I DO NOT OWN DBZ NOR NARUTO.
"I wasn't able to find anything." Gohan said to himself, continuing to eat his cereal afterwards. "It's frustrating. At least this cereal is really good."
Gohan's house was really organised as he'd invested some of the money he had for food on a couple of cabinets to store things he had accumulated. Fortunately for him, his mother had been really worries about his studies and got him into a course of financial education, so he knew how to manage money. He still thought that he was in a difficult situation, but at least he got some money before becoming a shinobi and starting to earn his own money.
Gohan continued to eat his cereal. He really enjoyed eating cereal, it was a very good meal even though it was light and really simple.
After eating his bowl of cereal, he left home for school.
Iruka was already calling the list of names for every student to get the final exam. Gohan didn't even know what to do as he had just been there for 1 class, he honestly didn't even know what he was doing there.
"Ino Yamanaka." Iruka called, leaving the half saiyan as the next one to do the exam.
Sasuke saw how Gohan panicked at not knowing what to do, making him laugh. The half saiyan noticed this and it actually help him to focus, he at least wishes it was a strength test.
"Son Gohan." Iruka called.
As he exited the classroom, he saw 2 more ninjas apart from Iruka, who encouraged him before going back to the classroom. One of them looked as if he was sick, while the other had a bandana that covered his head.
"So, can you do any technique that isn't destructive?" The sick-looking man asked, to which Gohan answered by nodding.
"Solar Flare!" Gohan yelled as he took his hands in front of his face, making a blinding light appear between them, vanishing after a couple of seconds.
The 2 ninja started to rub their eyes. They finally were able to open them again and actually see something, showing their shock as they finally saw the boy.
"Not bad." The man with the bandana said. "Anyway, you pass, get your headband." He continued as he gave Gohan a headband with a metal plate with a symbol in it. "You're officially a Genin."
As he left the academy, Gohan met Naruto on his way home. The half saiyan greeted the blonde boy kindly, and so did Naruto.
"So, were you able to pass the exam?" Gohan curiously asked.
"Check it for yourself." Naruto enthusiastically answered, taking his headband and putting it on his forehead. "How do I look?"
Somehow, it looked as if it had been made specifically for him.
"Suits you really well." Gohan answered as he got his own on his forehead. Then, he changed his mind and put it in his right arm. "What about mine? Does it look good?"
"Different, but I guess it's cool." Naruto said as he gave Gohan a thumbs up.
"Tomorrow they're giving the teams, right?" Gohan asked as they continued walking.
"Yeah." Naruto answered. "I hope I'm not in the same team as Sasuke, he makes me sick."
Gohan laughed a bit at Naruto's comment, making Naruto laugh too and then both of them laughing together.
"Today, your lives as shinobi from Konoha start. Lives filled with discipline, danger and adventures." The Hokage said as he stood in a sort of stage. In front of him, the newly graduated Genin were hearing his speech. "Your professor, Iruka, will be giving you your respective teams. Your teammates will be your working partners and friends for you entire lives, so make sure you treat them well."
The Hokage beckoned Iruka to go next to him. As Iruka stepped forward, the students started to cheer him, specially Naruto.
"Alright, then let's go ahead and announce the teams." Iruka said, getting a list out of his clipboard. He started to read it afterwards.
"Let's see." Gohan said as his teacher continued to read the list of teams that both him and the Hokage had made.
"Team 7 will be formed by Sakura Haruno, Naruto Uzumaki And Sasuke Uchiha; and it will be in charge of Kakashi Hatake." Iruka announced, making Sakura cheer and brag about it in Ino's face, making the blonde girl roll her eyes.
Naruto wasn't sure how to feel about his team as he was happy that he was in the same team as Sakura, but at the same time he was unhappy about Sasuke being in his team. He finally decided to accept it, although he wished Gohan was in Sasuke's place. On the other hand, Sasuke was totally disapppointed about his team as he thought both Naruto and Sakura were just going to be an obstacle for him.
"Team 8 will be formed by Hinata Hyuuga, Shino Aburame and Kiba Inuzuka; Kurenai Yuhi will be on charge of this group." Iruka announced. The pearl-like eyed girl was a bit disappointed as she wanted to be with Naruto, but she accepted the team in the end. Kiba was excited to get to know new people, while Shino was totally uninterested.
"Hehe, I'll be with Hinata. Maybe I'll finally be able to talk to her." Kiba excitedly thought.
"Next will be Team 10 and it will be formed by Chouji Akimichi, Ino Yamanaka and Shikamaru Nara, and Asuma Sarutobi will be in charge of the team." Iruka announced.
"Yeah, I knew it." Shikamaru said with an uninterested tone. Chouji was actually happy with his team, although Ino was a bit jealous of Sakura. The three of them either raised an eyebrow in confusion or just got a confused expression in their faces as the Hokage told something to Iruka in the ear.
"Excuse me, there's a little change in team 10." Iruka announced as he scratched the back of his head. "Son Gohan is also part of the team, making it a team of 4 Genin."
Shikamaru got a slightly surprised expression as he didn't expect his team to have one more member. On the other hand, Chouji wasn't sure how to react, although he supposed it was something good. Ino was a bit happy as she had already met Gohan and he was quite a nice guy, at least that was what she thought. She couldn't deny that he was a bit handsome, too.
"At least I'm with Ino, she's nice, I guess." Gohan said more to himself, but was heard by Naruto.
"You're lucky, I'm with Sasuke!" Naruto complained.
Gohan was about to reply to his friend's complain but Iruka raised his voice again to give one more announcement.
"Now, your new teachers or leaders will present themselves to you." Iruka said. "So please be nice to them."
Then, several Jounin appeared next to their respective teams. Apparently every team except for team 7, as Kakashi was nowhere to be seen.
"Hey." Asuma said as he waved at the young members of his team. He had a friendly smile on his face. "How's everything?"
"Fine." Shikamaru coldly and uninterestedly answered.
"Umm, I think we're missing the new guy." Chouji said as looked behind him.
"Does anyone of you know him?" Asuma curiously asked after watching if he was somewhere to be seen.
"I do." Ino said as she raised an eyebrow.
"Is he nice?" Asuma continued to ask as Chouji's eyes widened in surprise.
"Yeah, he is." Ino a answered as she smiled nervously. "Hey, Gohan."
"Hey." The half saiyan replied, making Asuma cringe out of surprise.
"Uhh, hello, Gohan." Asuma nervously said as he smiled while a drop of sweat went down his face.
"How are you all?" The half saiyan kindly asked as he joined the group.
Everyone answered his question, giving Asuma time to think of something to do to get to know each other, then he thought about Kakashi's idea, and decided to copy it.
"Anyway, I'd like this team to be really close, so I want us to know each other better." Asuma said, making Gohan smile as he liked the idea. "Each of you will tell us your likes and dislikes, and then your goal in the future."
"That sounds fine." Ino said as she turned to look at the others.
"Yeah, it's okay for me." Chouji replied as Shikamaru and Gohan nodded.
"Alright, then, I'll start." Asuma said. "I love cigarettes and peace, I hate losing loved ones and I already achieved my goal. Your turn, Chouji."
"Um, I love food, I hate being hungry and my dream is to break some food eating record!" Chouji asked as he thought about what food he'd eat next.
"Interesting, I guess." Asuma said, laughing a bit afterwards. "Anyway, your turn, Shikamaru."
"Whatever." Shikamaru said as he took a moment to think of his answers. "I like sleeping, I hate doing any mental or physical effort and I don't really have a goal."
"We'll work on that, then." Asuma said as he laughed a bit. "Your turn, Ino."
"Uhh, I like shopping, I hate work and I guess I can't tell if I have a goal, but I'm ready for everything!" Ino confidently and enthusiastically said.
"I like your confidence and energy! You will surely be a good shinobi in the future." Asuma said as he turned to look at Gohan, giving him a friendly smile. "Now your turn, Gohan."
"Alright." The half saiyan said as he scratched his chin for a moment before answering. "I love animals and learning things, I hate evil people and my goal is to protect the world and the living being that live here."
Asuma and Chouji were surprised at the complexity of Gohan's answer. Shikamaru and Ino were surprised too, but the Nara hid his surprise and the Yamanaka preferred to give an interested expression.
"That's really admirable, Gohan." Asuma admitted as he remembered his nephew, Konohamaru.
"How did it go for you?" Gohan asked as he walked next to a blonde boy.
"It wasn't that bad, but I found out that Sasuke is even creepier than he seems." Naruto answered. "Even Sakura got a bit astonished when he said his dream was to kill someone."
"I would've reacted the same." Gohan reassuringly said.
As the boys kept walking, a group of 3 kids suddenly got in their way.
"Naruto, why haven't you played with me recently?!" One of the kids asked. He had brown, spiky hair and he had a really nice blue scarf.
"I've been busy." Naruto replied. "By the way, this is Gohan, he's new in the village."
"Hey." Gohan kindly greeted. "What's your name?"
"I'm Konohamaru, the next Hokage!" The kid answered with great enthusiasm.
"I see why you're friends, then!" Gohan said as he noticed how both Naruto and him wanted to become Hokage.
"Unfortunately for Naruto, I'll be the one who becomes Hokage!" Konohamaru declared.
"I'm even older than you, what makes you think you can beat me?" The blonde boy replied as he got ready to fight Konohamaru.
"You're just 3 years older than me!" The kid yelled.
"I'm still older!" Naruto yelled back.
"Hey! Calm down." Gohan said as he got between the 2 of them. "How about we all go together to eat at Ichiraku?"
"Yeah!" The other 2 kids said, making Konohamaru and Naruto accept the suggestion too.
"So what are your names?" Gohan kindly asked.
"Moegi!" The little girl enthusiastically answered.
"And Udon!" The other kids said with a lot less enthusiasm as he appeared to be sick.
"Alright then! Let's go!" Gohan said.
The group of 5 kids now walked towards Ichiraku, where some delicious cups of ramen waited for them.
And that was today's chapter!
I hope you liked it!
Have a good one!
