Chapter 3


Training Ground 46


"Shadow clone explosion" said Naruto as the two clones in front of him exploded. "Finally got this jutsu down." said Naruto. The Shadow clone explosion jutsu is a variation of the Shadow clone jutsu, created by the Kinslayer Itachi Uchiha. Whereas the shadow clone jutsu is a B-rank forbidden jutsu, the exploding clone is a A-rank forbidden jutsu.

"Multi Exploding Clone jutsu!" with a giant poof of smoke a hundred copies of Naruto fill up the training ground. "Alright boys you know what to do." said Naruto as he is going through handsigns 'Earth style: Mud Dome' as a dome of mud forms and hardens around the blonde. As soon as the dome formed, all one hundred clones simultaneously exploded.


Hokage's Tower


Hiruzen was currently indulging in the sacred texts of Make out Paradise as a category 3 explosion occurred in one of the training grounds around the village. "Lord Hokage! The village is under attack!" shouts one of the Chūnin in the building. Sarutobi takes a drag of his pipe already feeling the amount of paperwork he'll be doing because of this incident. "Calm down Takeshi it's just a Genin experimenting with explosive tags." said Sarutobi "but Lord Hokage- " "the ANBU are patrolling the village if anyone had the balls to attack us we would've already dealt with them by now." said Sarutobi with a stern voice. Takeshi nods and leaves the office. 'Naruto do you have any idea how much work you've just given me?' thought Sarutobi with anime tears.


Training Ground 46


As the dust clears Naruto sees that the training ground is nothing but a crater now. "Holy Shit! This place is a mess. Sarutobi is gonna have my ass for this." said Naruto. When he checks his watch he sees that it's 6:45 he decides to body flicker to his Loft before the ANBU show up.

Naruto's Loft


He decides to have a shower and a change of clothes. Naruto now wears a black hoodie with the Uzumaki swirl at the back, with his usual sweatpants and his calf length sandals. He eats a quick breakfast before he heads to Training Ground 7. As he arrives he sees his two teammates in an interesting position. "Hey you two" he says.

Flashback

Sasuke Uchiha was not having a good day. First thing was that he didn't have hot water, then his tomatoes were expired, then as he arrives at the training ground he sees that Kakashi and Naruto have not arrived yet, meaning it was just him and Sakura. As Sakura goes on and on about how they're on the same team, and then out of nowhere an explosion happens. Due to the shock he finds himself on top Sakura with their lips connected. Sasuke much to his shock, enjoys the feel of Sakura's lips on his. After a few moments the pair end their lip lock, and Sasuke finds himself lost in Sakura's exotic features from her emerald green eyes, to her exotic hair and cherry pink lips that are just begging to be kissed. As he leans in for another kiss her hears Naruto say "Hey you two"

Sakura Haruno was having a bad hair day, secondly she was hungry as a stray dog. Her day got even worse when her favourite perfume bottle broke. As she arrives in the training ground she saw Sasuke there, and then her heart started beating faster. As she is trying(and failing) to get Sasuke to talk to her, and then the explosion happens. Next thing she knows Sasuke is on top of her resulting in their lips meeting together. Sakura's face was red as a tomato. Then the kiss ends much to her chagrin, then she sees that Sasuke looking at her the same way her father looked at her mother and then she sees Sasuke leaning towards her when Naruto makes himself known.


Training Ground 7


Naruto continues to look at his two unofficial teammates with a vicious smile on his face. "Am I interrupting something?" asked the blonde. "N-no there's nothing going on here." said Sasuke. "Really?" Sasuke and Sakura nod. Naruto's smile widens oh, was he going to have so much fun with these two. "Then why are you guys in such a comfortable position." said Naruto. The two teens scramble away from each other with furious blushes on their faces as they glare at a laughing Naruto.

Kakashi Hatake was at the Memorial stone burning incense. While he hears laughter further down the clearing, and he sees two of his students with blushes on their faces while his sensei's son is howling with laughter. He then is reminded of his team. 'Obito, Rin, Minato-sensei I miss you' thought Kakashi as he makes himself known.

"Hello my cute little Genin." said Kakashi. "You're late!" shouts Sakura. "Sorry I just got lost in the road of life." said Kakashi smoothly. "Stop using Naruto's excuses!" Kakashi and Naruto's eyes met "It was you!" shout the both of them. "You're the son of a bitch who stole my excuses!" exclaimed Naruto. "Me? You're the one who stole mine!" yelled Kakashi. The two continued to stare at each other lightning coming in between their eyes. "I'm telling Anko" said Naruto with a victorious smile. Kakashi paled, Sasuke and Sakura sweat dropped from the scene in front of them.

After a few moments Kakashi explains the rules of the test as all three Genin scattered around the forest surrounding the clearing. 'Well at least they know how to hide' thought Kakashi. Naruto is currently thinking of a plan to take the bells. "Alright there's a hidden meaning to this test that I can't put my finger on it." Naruto whispers to himself as he takes out a cigarette and a lighter. A few drags of his cigarette he finally figured it out, but then he hears screaming from the east side of the forest.

Sakura Haruno was hiding behind a few bushes when she heard something behind her. When she looked behind her she saw a rabbit hopping around the bushes. As she let out a deep breath and turned around she saw Sasuke riddled with kunai and shuriken all over his body. "S-sakura" said the illusion, and Sakura let out a shriek before she passed out.

'Hmm I didn't think that a minor genjutsu will have that much of an effect on her.' lazily thought Kakashi. "Well time for my next victim " Kakashi said to himself as he disappeared into the forest.

Naruto found Sakura crying on the ground, then he sees that her eyes are glazed over meaning that she is in a genjutsu. Naruto proceeds to break Sakura out of the genjutsu. Then he proceeds to tell Sakura about the true meaning of the test. Afterwards they go and look for Sasuke.

"Well Sasuke that was entertaining but you're a little too early to be able to beat me" said Kakashi. Right now Sasuke is neck deep in the ground. "By any chance, have you seen Naruto? He's the only one left that I haven't tested." asked Kakashi. "Fuck you!" shouts Sasuke "Now, now, no need for such foul words Sasuke. A good ninja needs to calm and polite like me." said Kakashi lazily as he leaves to find Naruto.

"Well, well how the mighty have fallen." said with an amused smirk on his face as he sees Sasuke's head. "Fuck you Naruto get me outta here." said Sasuke. "Hmm say please Naruto-sama get me outta here." said Naruto. Sasuke is red with rage and leaks a lot of killing intent. "Naruto stop teasing poor Sasuke." said Sakura with her own amused smirk. "I hate you two so much." growls Sasuke. A few moments and more jokes from Naruto. "So you're saying that the meaning of the test is teamwork?" asks Sasuke. Naruto and Sakura nod, "You're just trying to trick me,so you can get the bells" said Sasuke. "I don't need you two I can get the bells on my ow- " before he could finish, Naruto decides to beat the shit out of him. "Stop it you two. You're supposed to be teammates." said Sakura with tears on her face. Naruto ignores her and he continues to use Sasuke as a punching bag. "Are willing to cooperate with us" asked Naruto. "Fuck you!" snarled Sasuke. Naruto continues to punch Sasuke, Sakura continued to watch as Naruto pummelled the object of her affections. "I don't have time for your shit Sasuke. Are you willing to work with us?" said Naruto. "Alright I'll work with you." croaked Sasuke. "Alright! Welcome to the team Sasuke." cheerfully said Naruto. "Now here's what we're gonna do..."

After 30 minutes Kakashi gave up looking for Naruto and is now currently reading Make Out Paradise. 'Ooh Makino you a naughty, naughty girl' thought Kakashi. All of a sudden he shuts his book "So you finally decided to show up" said Kakashi. "Heard you were looking for me" said Naruto as he readies himself. "So you're taking me on alone huh?" asked Kakashi. Naruto nods "I'm not Mizuki you know." said the masked jônin. "Mizuki was a waste of sperm and Oxygen he was weak, whereas you on the other hand are the real deal." said Naruto. Kakashi stays silent. "Shall we begin?" asked Naruto as he and Kakashi charge towards each other.

Sakura was laying down the sealing tags at the roundeveous point. 'I hope this works Naruto' thought the pink-haired young woman. Sakura was both excited and nervous because this is the most complicated plan that she has ever done. As she is placing the tags she hears the sounds of combat coming closer, she quickly got into position.

Kakashi Hatake was impressed. Naruto Uzumaki was going blow for blow against him, an elite Jônin. Even though Kakashi was holding back Naruto was matching him and steadily winning, that was nothing short of impressive to the masked ninja. 'Wind style: cutting breeze' Kakashi pauses his thinking as a breeze of razor sharp wind blades heads towards him, Kakashi quickly replaces himself with a log. Naruto smirks as he takes advantage of the opportunity to kick Kakashi in the stomach and knees him on the the face, breaking his nose. Kakashi pushes Naruto off him and hits him with a roundhouse kick to his ribs. The two pause to assess their wounds. After a few moments Naruto throws a handful of shuriken at Kakashi. 'Shuriken shadow clone jutsu' as the shuriken multiply to a hundred. Kakashi replaces himself again but Naruto was ready for him, as he mule kicks Kakashi another Naruto appears with a spinning kick to the back of Kakashi's head. As Kakashi gets his bearings he sees a fireball head towards him. With a few handsigns "Water style: Water Wall" said Kakashi as a wall of water protected him from the flames. "Back for more Sasuke?" asked Kakashi

Sasuke Uchiha was both jealous and in awe of the fight in front of him. Naruto Uzumaki the dead last of the academy was going head to head with a Jônin and he was winning. Sasuke clenched his fist so hard that his palms bled, 'what have I been doing all this time? ' thought Sasuke. He then saw Naruto give Kakashi the meanest taijutsu combo he has ever seen, then he sees the signal. With a quick four handsigns he takes a deep breath 'Fire style: Grand Fireball jutsu' as he exhales a massive fireball at Kakashi. He sees a giant wall of water stops his fireball causing the area to fill with steam. "Back for more Sasuke?" he heard Kakashi ask him. "Yeah, but I brought reinforcements" said Sasuke, as the steam clears a hundred clones appeared a hundred clones of Naruto surrounding him and Kakashi.

As the steam cleared Kakashi found himself surrounded by clones of his blonde student, and they do not look happy. "Alright time to get serious" whispered Kakashi. The wave of clones come at him, with the skills of a former ANBU Commander he swiftly dispelled all the clones. Naruto and Sasuke nod at one another, as they charge at Kakashi. Kakashi quickly found himself at the defensive as Naruto and Sasuke display an impressive show of teamwork, when Naruto attacked, Sasuke covered for him and vice versa. 'These two are impressive if they could only get Sakura to work with them.' thought Kakashi. 'Wind style: violent palm' said Naruto, as a burst of wind sends Kakashi flying. As Kakashi gets his bearings , four Narutos surround him. 'Fūinjutsu: Four Corner Trap Seal' as a seal array formed around the masked jônin paralysing him. "Sakura Now!" yelled Naruto and Sasuke.

As soon as Naruto and Sasuke gave the go ahead Sakura sprinted towards Kakashi with intent to swipe the bells from his waist, when the timer rang stopping the test. 'No!' thought Sakura, 'Dammit' thought Sasuke, Naruto didn't seem to care. "Well you hear that? The timer rang which means this test is over, You fail!" exclaimed Kakashi Sakura looked dejected, Sasuke was frustrated and Naruto took out a cigarette and started smoking. "How about a trade?" asked Naruto "Trade what Naruto the test is over." said Kakashi. Naruto exhales a plume of smoke, "I knew something like this would happen so I got insurance." said Naruto as he takes out a familiar orange book. "Naruto, that's just your copy of Make out Paradise." said Kakashi. "Is it?" Naruto opens the book "This is a signed copy of Make out Paradise by the author himself" said Naruto " I bought my copy two months ago, way after the book's release." continued Naruto. Kakashi is in shock that a Genin was able to pickpocket him during a fight. Sasuke and Sakura were in awe at the scene in front of them. Naruto continues to smoke his cigarette with a calm expression. "We can do this two ways,Kakashi. One way is that you let us pass, and you get your book back. The other way is..." Naruto closes the book, shows Kakashi the front cover which has an explosive tag "... that your book goes boom, I hope you choose wisely Kakashi." said Naruto.

Kakashi can't help but be impressed by the boy in front of him. "I'll even sweeten the deal, I'll also give you my Make out Paradise: Tropical Getaway" said Naruto as he takes out a red book. "T-that book wouldn't be released until six months from now!" exclaimed Kakashi. "And it'll be all yours if you let us pass." said Naruto coolly. 'I can't believe I'm being conned by a thirteen year old ' thought Kakashi. "Well you drive a hard bargain Naruto." said Kakashi. "Well there's nothing else to say, Team 7 you... pass" continued Kakashi.

Sasuke was relieved to hear that. 'I'm one step closer to killing you' thought the avenger. Sakura was shedding tears of relief 'thank you Naruto' thought the pink-haired young woman. Naruto proceeds to deactivate the sealing array, then he throws Kakashi the books. "Alright team meetings is at 7:00 am, see ya!" disappeared Kakashi.

"Well I'll see you on the flipside lovebirds" teases Naruto as he disappears with a swirl of leaves leaving a blushing Sasuke and Sakura. "Umm, Sasuke I have a first Aid kit at home if you want me to treat your injures?" asked Sakura. "Sure let's go " said the avenger. Kakashi watches from the background with a smile 'I'll never let anything happens to this team' thought Kakashi.
