BOOK 1: Ninja Kitsune: Promise Of A Lifetime
" My name is Umino Iruka and from now on, all of you shall address me as ' Iruka-sensei ', got it? "
Umino Iruka, aye? This is turning out to be a most interesting day...
Chapter 2: First Impressions
Flashback
I had just finished my dinner and was on my way back home, when I accidentally ran into a person at the corner.
Both of us fell to the ground. I got up quickly and hid myself in an alley, afraid that the man would hit me, as they always do.
I heard the man curse and some frantic rustling of fabric. Curiosity peaked, I raised my head just enough for me to see from the trashcan that I was hiding in.
There, I saw a brown-haired Chuunin searching through the piles of rubbish on the side of the road, mumbling something about ' Icha Icha '.
That was my first impression of Iruka-san: A hopeless closet pervert who loves Icha Icha Paradise though he tries to hide it desperately.
End Flashback
Mentally snickering, I stored the information in my mind as ' future blackmail material '.
" ...Uchiha Sasuke! "
" Hn! "
A strangled gasp, then a cruel hardening of eyes... Expected, though definitely not appreciated.
" Uzumaki Naruto! "
" Here! "
After that, I droned out. If my mind serves, when class begins he'll ask me insanely hard questions which I'll have no chance of answering just for the sake of embarassing the ' demon boy '.
" Uzumaki! Since you seem to be enjoying your little daydream over there, would you mind explaining to the class what chakra is? Hm? "
He smirked. It was obvious he expected me to be unable to answer.
Sigh.
" Chakra is the energy we shinobi use in jutsu. Basically it can be said that chakra is energy, which is partially true as it is composed of physical energy, which is gained by training one's body, and spiritual energy, which is gained through knowledge and experience. There are also other uses of chakra, such as releasing it in a constant flow to be able to ' walk ' on water and..."
By this time, Iruka's jaw was on the floor. Expected, since no one about my training with Itachi-sensei until Sandaime put it on to my Academy Registration Card, which was this morning.
" ...nd chakra control if one is to become a strong ninja. "
Iruka finally managed to collect himself.
" G..good answer. "
I droned out once again. Soon I realised I was not the only one. Iruka's monotone speech should be classified as a B-rank genjutsu with its effectiveness in droning people to sleep. Innocent, oblivious Iruka noticed none of it and continued to talk.
Over the course of the lesson, even the most persistent of students fell prey to the ' monotone-of-sleepiness technique ', until not one was left awake. Coincidentally, just as the last student fell asleep, Iruka snapped his book shut and woke everyone up.
" Now! For the next few hours we shall be out on the field to for me to test your nin, gen and taijutsu abilities. Now, can all of you line up in twos and follow me out. "
I watched intently as each student went forth to try their luck against Iruka in a pure taijutsu spar. One by one, all of them fell. The most interesting match was when Hyuuga Hinata fought Iruka with the Jyuken-ryu, nearly succeeding in a hit but hesitating in the last second, allowing Iruka to counter.
Hyuuga, hm? For a noble heiress she sure has some confidence problems.
Nevertheless, I continued observing each and every fight though there was really no chance for us five-year olds against the fully-trained Chuunin.
" Uzumaki, Naruto! "
I watched as a grim smile made its way to Iruka's face. So the poor fool wanted a shot at hurting me accidentally during the spar, hm? Well, I haven't been training under Itachi-sensei for two years and learnt nothing, you know.
The battle commenced as my instructor rushed at me, aiming a fist at my short body. I side-stepped the attack and threw my body against his abdomen, making him fall.
Then I used the most evil, most terrifying attack in my arsenal; Naruto no ougi: Ude Bakudan!
...Which was basically a chakra-enhanced fist straight into his crotch.
Iruka's scream of immeasurable pain could be heard all the way in Sunagakure no sato.
