I do not own Naruto or any of it's characters.
Four days have passed and now the second part of the chunin exams is finally over with. All of the remaining genin were there and they were explaining what was going to happen next. They were going to have select matches now and then the finals will be scheduled in one month since all of the important people will show up. Sakura was looking at Sasuke and she could tell that he was ready to inflict pain on somebody. She looked back at Naruto who honestly looked like he wasn't even paying attention. Then she made eye contact with Natsumi who gave her a small smile and a thumbs up which she returned.
"Alright, listen up. My name is Hayate and I'm the proctor for this part of the exam. Since there are still too many of you, we need to have an elimination tournament of one on one matches until there is a certain amount left. Now, if anybody wants to quit you may do so now." Hayate said and Kabuto was the first to raise his hand
"Alright you got me, I give up." Kabuto said
"Kabuto, why are you quitting?" Sakura asked
"I'm low on chakra right now from too much fighting. I can't go on any further." Kabuto said
"From what I'm sensing, your chakra reserves are full. You don't even have a scratch on you. If you're a chicken then don't even bother showing up to the exams and wasting our time." Naruto said
"What was that?" Kabuto asked
"I don't think I stuttered. On your way out, tell your boss I said hi." Naruto said and Kabuto took a glance to his left at the sound jonin who nodded his head
"Alright. I changed my mind. I'll stay in the chunin exams and if it's not too much of a problem, I'd like Naruto as my opponent." Kabuto said
"I accept. I'd like to see how strong you really are after taking the exams 7 times." Naruto said
"I-I give up." Sakura said
"What? Sakura, why are you giving up?" Natsumi asked
"Because I know I'm not ready. I barely have the strength to be listed as a genin. I'm sure there will be other chunin exams for me to take, but just not this one." Sakura said
"Very well. Anybody else?" Hayate asked
"If forehead is quitting, then I quit too. We're basically even and she can admit that she's not ready, then so can I." Ino said and then more people started to drop out
"Alright. Now that that's settled, please direct your attention to the drawing board. Every match besides Naruto vs Kabuto will be randomly selected." Hayate said
"Alright, brats. Pay attention." Anko said and the board started to spin until it came to stop revealing the first match
Sasuke vs Yoroi Akado
"Okay. If you're not one of these two competitors, then take your ass up to the waiting area." Anko said and everyone left
"Alright you two. The fight goes on until your opponent can no longer move. However, I will stop the match if I have to. If you don't obey me then you'll be disqualified. Begin!" Hayate said and jumped back
Yoroi quickly threw three shuriken at Sasuke who deflected them with his own and then used a kunai to try and stab Yoroi, but he blocked it and slammed Sasuke to the ground. Before Yoroi could make his next move, Sasuke tripped him and managed to get him into an armbar. Yoroi used his ability and started to drain Sasuke's chakra, weakening him. Sasuke managed to kick Yoroi off of him and slowly got back to his feet. Yoroi taunted Sasuke a bit before rushing in at him again and managed to drain some of Sasuke's chakra again.
"What's the matter? Is that the best you can do?" Yoroi asked and Sasuke chuckled darkly as black markings spread across his face
"No. This is." Sasuke said
Stands
"Yup. I knew this would happen." Naruto said
"The mark activated again." Sakura said
"It didn't just activate on its own. Sasuke must've been practicing with it over the past few days and learned how to use it on his own." Naruto said and looked at Hiruzen
"Somebody needs to stop the match then. That thing is dangerous." Sakura said
"There's only two people who can stop the match and neither of them have a reason to do it right now." Naruto said
"Can that mark possibly kill him?" Natsumi asked
"There's a one in ten chance that it wouldn't kill him and obviously Sasuke's the one out of ten. There's no doubt that Sasuke is intentionally using the curse mark now." Naruto said
"What does that mean for us?" Natsumi asked
"Nothing. At best he's a mid-chunin level ninja with that curse mark activated. Without it, he's low-chunin. Me and you can handle him if he uses it on one of us, but we need to keep him away from Sakura just in case he's in a bad mood." Naruto said
Kage booth
"He's willingly using the curse mark. What the hell is his problem? Lord hokage, you need to do something about this." Anko said
"I have Kakashi ready for anything. He'll seal the mark away right after the match." Hiruzen said
"You don't understand. The seal won't work now. He's willingly using the curse mark. It's pointless to seal it away now." Anko said
"I have faith in Sasuke. You should have some as well." Hiruzen said
"The fact that you're not taking my advice into consideration about this is concerning. I understand the will of fire and everything, but Sasuke has never cared about any of that." Anko said and Hiruzen stayed silent
Sasuke Vs Yoroi
"He can already use the curse mark at will? I haven't even drained that much chakra from him." Yoroi thought
Yoroi ran at Sasuke and once again tried to steal his chakra, but to his and everyone else's shock, Sasuke pulled out a kunai and cut his hand off with an evil grin on his face. Yoroi backed up in pain, but Sasuke didn't let him get away. He appeared in front of him and punched him in the stomach causing Yoroi to nearly vomit. Yoroi was trying his best to stop the bleeding, but Sasuke's assault kept him from doing so. Sasuke then vanished from sight then gave Yoroi a strong kick to the chin that sent him flying into the air. Sasuke spun Yoroi around and aimed a kick at his ribs, but Yoroi managed to block it with his good arm. Sasuke maneuvered around him and gave a back fist to his face, sending him to the ground before hitting him with a clothesline and then finishing it with a strong kick to his gut. Although you could clearly see the similarity between Rock Lee's fighting style, Sasuke changed it up a bit and called it the lion's barrage. Yoroi was knocked out, but Sasuke wanted to send a message, so he added chakra to his feet and stomped on Yoroi's good hand and both of his kneecaps. Sasuke fell to the ground as his curse mark receded, but he managed to get back up to his feet.
"Yoroi is unable to continue. The winner of the first match, Sasuke Uchiha. He advances to the finals." Hayate said and Kakashi appeared behind Sasuke
"Good job. Funny. Before the lion's barrage, your movements were similar to that of Guy's taijutsu. You must've used your sharingan to copy it when you fought with Rock Lee." Kakashi said
"I think you should come to the medical area as well to get checked out." A medic said
"I think you're out of your league with this one. I'll look after him. Okay, Sasuke. Up you go. You're coming with me. We've got to seal that curse mark." Kakashi said
"Why? It's given me more power that I need to defeat him. I don't want it sealed away." Sasuke said
"I'm sorry, but I don't think I was asking. I've already cut you enough slack as it is with this thing. Come on. Let's go." Kakashi said and grabbed Sasuke before leaving
Stands
"What the hell was that?" Kiba asked
"Sakura, Natsumi, Naruto, what's going on? What happened to Sasuke?" Ino asked
"Nothing happened to Sasuke." Naruto said
"Then what were the black markings on his face?" Shikamaru asked
"None of your business." Naruto said
"I think it's all of our business. He's dangerous." Shikamaru said
"If you think he's dangerous, then you might as well drop out of the preliminaries. He's not the most dangerous person in the chunin exams." Natsumi said
"She's right. Sasuke is not the most dangerous person in the chunin exams." Shino said
"It's about time you all realized my skills." Kiba said and puffed out his chest
"No. You're skilled, but you are not the most dangerous person in the exams. Why? Because both Naruto and Natsumi have both grown since their days in the academy." Shino said
"Take that, dog breath." Natsumi said and Kiba growled
"Alright! Next match is Shino Aburame vs Zaku Abumi." Hayate said
"Which weakling is that?" Zaku asked
"Both of you come forward." Hayate said
"Do you think Shino will be alright?" Hinata asked Kiba
"He's fine. He's the last person here I'd ever want to fight." Kiba said
Zaku vs Shino
"If you're ready, you may begin." Hayate said
Zaku rushed at Shino and threw a punch that was easily blocked by Shino. Zaku smirked and used his slicing sound wave jutsu to blast Shino away from him. The smoke cleared and Shino was standing there with a few scratches and scuff marks on his clothes. However, to Zaku's disgust, Shino had bugs coming from the inside of his body and then Zaku was nearly surrounded by an entire army of them.
"These are a rare species of parasitic beetles. They attack their prey in groups and eat chakra. An army of this size and you're finished, no mistake. If you don't like that, give up. That would be in your best interest." Shino said
"Don't underestimate me!" Zaku said and pointed both hands at Shino and the bugs coming from behind him
"You should give up while you can." Shino said
"An ace in the hole is something you set aside, right? Prepare to die!" Zaku said, as he went to use a jutsu, but nothing worked and his arms went limp
"Earlier I recommended that you give up as a precautionary measure. I gave a suggestion to the bugs to block your wind holes with their bodies and remain still. This is what a real ace in the hole is." Shino said and back handed Zaku to the ground
"It seems it's over. The winner, Shino Aburame." Hayate said
Stands
"How did he do that?" Rock Lee asked
"There's no need to figure it out. It's simple." Naruto said
"What do you mean?" Sakura asked
"When Zaku threw the first punch and Shino blocked it, he had some of his insects climb onto Zaku. As the fight went on, the bugs were slowly making their way into his wind holes on his hands. If you're not a sensor then you won't sense them. The key is for you to sense foreign chakra inside of your own body. During the fight, I sensed Zaku had Shino's chakra inside of him in small amounts which means his insects also feed off of his own chakra. Shino won the fight from the moment he blocked Zaku's first punch." Naruto said
"Woah. That's pretty cool and disgusting at the same time." Natsumi said
"Yes, but if he were to use that on somebody with a lot of chakra like you and me it would be pointless." Naruto said
"Why?" Natsumi asked
"Because our chakra reserves are so big, especially yours, it would take the entire hive Shino has to even make us tired. He runs out of his hive and he's useless in a fight. While he does know taijutsu, it relies on his insects weakening his opponents first." Naruto said
"So if you can't detect them then you lose. I guess you and Natsumi are his worst opponents." Sakura said
"Not true. Neji and Hiyomi should be able to use their Byakugan to see the bugs if they're placed on them. Since we don't have any holes on our bodies except the ones we were born with, Shino's bugs will stay on the surface of our skin, but they're extremely hard to see." Naruto said
"Then what would be the next best way to defeat them?" TenTen asked
"Channel fire and/or lightning chakra through your body to fry them and watch them fall off." Naruto said
"Naruto, I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't expose my students abilities." Kurenai said
"Yeah and I'd appreciate it if you and your boyfriend kept it down at night, but it doesn't look like that's happening." Naruto mumbled, but she heard him and punched him on the head
"I heard that!" Kurenai said
"Ow! I wasn't lying. That hurt." Naruto said and rubbed a knot on his head
"You'll be fine." Kurenai said
"I think I need a medic." Naruto said
"Heal it yourself." Anko said
"Oh yeah. I forgot I could do that." Naruto said and then healed the lump on his head
"Sometimes he's too much like his mother. Smart one moment and then he's a complete airhead the next." Kurenai thought
"Good as new." Naruto said
"He's talented with medical ninjutsu? This just got even more difficult than I hoped." Kabuto thought and looked at Naruto
"What the fuck are you looking at?" Naruto asked
"Sorry, but I was just amazed to see you use medical ninjutsu." Kabuto said
"Shut up." Naruto said and then Kakashi appeared behind him
"Yo! Cyclops-Sensei." Natsumi said and Kakashi sighed
"It would be nice if you called me by my name." Kakashi said
"Yeah. I know." Natsumi said
"Kakashi-Sensei, is sasuke going to be okay?" Sakura asked
"He's sleeping soundly in the infirmary." Kakashi said
"However, he's been put under heavy surveillance by the anbu." Kakashi thought and then the next match was revealed
"Yo! Makeup boy! You're up!" Naruto said
"IT'S WAR PAINT." Kankuro yelled
"Isn't he the guy we met right before the chunin exams started?" Sakura asked
"Yeah. His name is Kankuro. Alongside his brother, Gaara and his sister, Temari. They're all really skilled in their own unique way." Naruto said
Kankuro vs Misumi
"Unlike Yoroi, I don't get careless with kids at all. I'll say this first. Once I do my technique, give up no matter what. I'll bring it to an end swiftly." Misumi said
"Funny. I was about to say the same thing. Though I can't promise it'll be painless." Kankuro said
"Now then. Kankuro vs Misumi, begin!" Hayate said
"Let me do you a favor and end this match quickly." Kankuro said
"You can't end it if I end it first. My first move is a surefire victory!" Misumi said, as he threw a punch at Kankuro, but it was blocked and then he shocked everyone as his body started to wrap around Kankuro's
"What the?!" Kankuro said
"I dislocate every joint, softening my body, then with my chakra, I can control it perfectly. I can also squeeze until your bones break. I'll rapidly tighten as long as you don't give up. I don't know what kind of ninja tool you'll use, but if I keep doing this to your body, it will make no difference. I can break your neck right now. So hurry and give up." Misumi said
"No." Kankuro said
Stands
"That's some technique." Sakura said and Naruto chuckled
"What's so funny?" Natsumi asked
"The match is over. Kankuro won." Naruto said
"I think your eyes are malfunctioning. Kankuro is being squeezed to death." Natsumi said
"If you say so. You saw it too, right Kakashi?" Naruto asked
"Hm? Yeah I saw it." Kakashi said
"Come on. Tell us what you saw." TenTen said
"Nope. That would ruin the surprise." Naruto said
Kankuro vs Misumi
"Do you want to die?!" Misumi asked
"You idiot. You're the one who's going to die." Kankuro said and then Misumi snapped his neck
"What a fool. I went a little overboard and ended up killing you." Misumi said and then Kankuro started to fall apart before turning around revealing himself as a puppet
"Okay, now it's my turn." The puppet said as its arms wrapped around Misumi's body
"This is just a puppet! That's the real body. He was controlling it from inside of his wraps. He's a puppet master!" Misumi thought
"If your bones get crushed, you'll be able to bend them even more, huh?" Kankuro asked
"I give up!" Misumi said and fell to the ground
"The winner of the match, Kankuro." Hayate said
Stands
"Woah. He controlled the puppet with his chakra from his hand." Sakura said
"He's a puppet master. Well, he's on his way to becoming a puppet master. It is a popular thing in Suna." Naruto said
"That was two on one though. Is that even fair?" Natsumi asked
"It's not really two against one. It's a puppet. Not another ninja." Kakashi said
"Yeah. It's basically a ninja tool like a shuriken or a kunai." Sakura said
"I knew that." Natsumi said
"No you didn't." Sakura said
"Everyone here wields their chakra so perfectly. Even Naruto and Natsumi, who are basically chakra monsters, know how to use their chakra properly as much as possible." Sakura thought and then felt a hand on her shoulder
"Don't compare yourself to others, Sakura. Be your own person." Naruto said
"Thank you, Naruto." Sakura said and then the next match was revealed
"Oh boy." Naruto said
"What?" Natsumi asked
"This next match will be over quickly." Naruto said and pointed at the screen showing Temari vs TenTen
"Nice to see you know I'll win." TenTen said
"He was talking about me, buns." Temari said and they walked down to the fighting area
"Your girlfriend vs your friend. Who do you have winning?" Natsumi whispered
"She's not my girlfriend. However, she will win without a scratch on her." Naruto said
"How so?" Ino asked
"Because she's the perfect counter for TenTen's use of weapons. TenTen may have a chance if she can keep it a close quarters fight, but then it's still a slim chance." Naruto said
Temari vs TenTen
"I'm so ready. She's going down." TenTen thought
"Begin!" Hayate said and the TenTen jumped away from
"Are you planning to wait out and see how I make my first move? Let me just tell you, once I start my attack, you'll be over in a second. You're trying to be cool and see what I do first. Naruto was right when he said I'm the worst opponent for you to have in these chunin exams. Come on. I'll even give you the first move." Temari said
"Fine. If that's what you want. Just remember that you asked for it." TenTen said as she threw some shuriken at Temari and missed
Stands
"Hm. Not bad." Naruto said with a smirk
"What do you mean? She missed it!" Natsumi said
"I wasn't talking about TenTen. I was talking about Temari." Naruto said
"What is going on?! How did she miss?!" Rock Lee asked
"It's impossible. TenTen has a perfect aim. She always hits the target ten out of ten times." Might Guy said
"Not this time." Neji said
"She never missed. There must've been something that made her miss." Might Guy said
"The reason is simple." Naruto said
"What's that?" Rock Lee asked
"It's one of the reasons why I said Temari is the worst opponent for TenTen. She can't hit moving targets and she can't get past an invisible wall that deflects her weapons. The only way for TenTen to hit a moving target is if she throws out a ton of kunai and shuriken then gets a lucky shot. The only way for her to hit her target through an invisible wall is to find the weak point in that wall, but I don't think she'll find the weak point. Temari wasn't being cocky when she said TenTen should give up. She was being honest." Naruto said
TenTen vs Temari
"I missed?! There's no way!" TenTen said
"What was that? A warm-up? Some exercise? Maybe you're just scared and your aim is off. I thought I would enjoy this fight a little bit more, but obviously I was wrong. If that's the best you got then I suggest you give up now." Temari said
"Okay. Stay calm. Don't let her get to you. One, two, three. She must've dodged them somehow. I just have to make it impossible." TenTen thought
"Look at her measuring her distance. Here comes her big move I guess." Temari thought and reached for her fan
"That's her secret. It's that fan." TenTen thought
She started to run around before jumping into the air and pulling out a scroll. She unsealed multiple weapons and threw them at Temari. Once again all of her weapons missed their target and Temari didn't move from that one spot.
"No way! Is there some kind of secret to that fan?" TenTen asked
"Take a look. This is the first moon and there are two more. When you see all three moons you'll know you've lost the match." Temari said and TenTen sighed
"I was hoping to save this for the finals and not the preliminary round, but it may be now or never." TenTen thought and pulled out two scrolls
"It won't work." Temari said, as TenTen put the scrolls down and went through hand signs
Rising twin dragons
The scrolls rose up and spun around each other cloaked in smoke shaped like a dragon. When the smoke dispersed, Tenten jumped in between the scrolls and started to unseal and throw weapons at Temari in quick succession.
"It doesn't matter how many you throw at me, it's all the same. Moon number two." Temari said and swung her fan to deflect all of the weapons
"I'm not done!" TenTen said and used ninja wire attached to the weapons to attack Temari again who used her fan to deflect them and revealed her third moon
"Moon number three." Temari said and seemingly vanished
"Where did she go? She's gone!" TenTen thought
"I'm over here!" Temari said and TenTen turned around to see Temari flying towards her using her fan before she landed
Ninja art: Wind scythe jutsu
Using her Giant Folding Fan, Temari caused many currents of wind to collide with each other, creating vacuum pockets. TenTen was engulfed in the winds and her body was being carved up by the countless wind blades. Temari was controlling the form that the winds take, by making them into a tornado that lifted TenTen into the air. Temari stopped the jutsu and when TenTen fell out of the air, Temari folded her fan causing her to land spine first onto the fan.
"Wasn't much of a match. It was kind of boring." Temari said
"The winner of the fifth match is Temari." Hayate said and then Temari threw TenTen off of her fan, but Lee caught her
"Nice catch." Temari said
"What is wrong with you? She may have lost, but that is no way to treat an opponent who has done her best." Lee said
"Shut up and take that trash with you." Temari said and Lee tried to attack her, but to everyone's surprise except Naruto, Temari blocked his kick with her fan
"Not even close. You're as dumb as you look." Temari said
"What did you say?" Lee asked
"Lee! Stop!" Might Guy said as he appeared on the arena floor
"Temari. Forget them. The match is over. Get up here. You won. Why are you wasting your time with that pathetic loser and his ridiculous mentor?" Gaara asked
"What?!" Lee asked
"Just calm down, Lee. A word of warning. You sand villagers have no idea what Lee is capable of. Remember, he still hasn't fought yet. So I'd be careful if I were you." Guy said, then went to the stands with Lee and TenTen as the next match was announced
Naruto vs Kabuto
Stands
"It seems I'm up next." Kabuto said and pushed his glasses up
"Hey, Naruto." Natsumi whispered
"What?" Naruto asked
"I had this weird feeling about him ever since he showed us those cards during the first test. Is that weird?" Natsumi whispered
"No. I'll talk to you after my match." Naruto said
"Good luck, Naruto." Sakura said
"Thanks." Naruto said
"Show me what you can do, Naruto Namikaze." The disguised Iwaji thought, as he watched Naruto closely
Kabuto vs Naruto
"You should really give up while you can, Naruto. I've got more experience in the chunin exams than you." Kabuto said
"I wonder how that's possible if you always chicken out after the second part. Too bad your master left and now he can't see his favorite pawn get his ass kicked." Naruto said
"Please. I'm way out of your league." Kabuto said arrogantly
"No you aren't. You see, I've gotten pretty good at reading people's chakra to see how it flows, which means I can tell how you fight and what you use it for." Naruto said
"Is that a fact? Go on, tell me how I will fight then." Kabuto said and Naruto smirked
"You're a support type ninja. Mainly medical which means you like to keep your distance. If you had to go close range, I bet you must use chakra scalpels to cut the tendons in your opponent to give you an edge." Naruto said
"He figured me out completely before we even fought. How though? I made sure I kept my abilities a secret." Kabuto thought
"If you're wondering how I know about your abilities, I kept a few shadow clones in the forest of death after I completed it to scout the competition. Whenever your team had to fight, you would stay in the back and provide cover for a distraction then heal them if they needed it." Naruto said
"You may have figured out my fighting style, but that just means I have to keep my distance and wear you down before I attack." Kabuto said and had a smug grin on his face, but it went away when Naruto chuckled
"That's where you're wrong. I won't show much of my skills, but I'll let you know this. I'm not only dangerous because I'm an Uchiha. I'm dangerous because I'm quick and I can fight up close and from distance. Ninjutsu, taijutsu, genjutsu, kenjutsu. You name it and I can do it." Naruto said
"I hardly doubt you can call yourself an Uchiha when you don't have the sharingan." Kabuto said
"What makes you think I don't have the sharingan? Just because I don't walk around flashing it like Sasuke doesn't mean I don't have it." Naruto said and activated he sharingan
"He's thirteen and already has a mature sharingan! If I learned anything from Lord Orochimaru about the sharingan, it's that going up against a skilled user can be dangerous no matter how much stronger than the opponent you are." Kabuto thought
"If you're wondering about it, yes I'm very skilled with the sharingan. I unlocked them at the age of 5. I won't go into detail about the sharingan, but my eyes are so powerful that I was able to do stuff with them in the first stage that I shouldn't have been able to do before I mastered the sharingan. I don't want to seem cocky, but my eyes are the most powerful pair of sharingan eyes in the history of the Uchiha clan. Now, let's get started." Naruto said
"Naruto vs Kabuto. Begin!" Hayate said and jumped away
Naruto rushed at kabuto at mid-jonin speeds and to everyone's shock, when Kabuto sent a punch at Naruto, it went right through him. Naruto appeared behind him and kicked him in the back hard, sending Kabuto into the wall. Naruto pinned him to the wall with a few kunai, but Kabuto used the substitution jutsu to escape.
"Not bad, Naruto." Kabuto said and healed his wounds
"I'm just getting started." Naruto said
Kabuto decided to go at him with full strength and activated his chakra scalpels then rushed at him. Naruto decided to follow suit and matched Kabuto's speed easily. Naruto was using his Sharingan to dodge Kabuto as he was trying to hit him in his vital spots. Naruto managed to strike a few of Kabuto's pressure points in one of his arms and Kabuto grew worried since his arm was hanging by his side.
"What did you do?!" Kabuto asked
"Pressure points." Naruto said and got into a stance that showed his fists close to his face with his with left fist slightly in front of his right fist
Before Kabuto could try to fix the damage, Naruto seemingly started to glide easily across the floor, but all Naruto did was use a lot of quick shunshins to quickly teleport across the arena. Naruto increased his speed with the shunshins and Kabuto seemingly started to spazz out as his body was moving like he was getting hit by something.
Stands
"Woah. What's going on?" Natsumi asked
"Yeah. Why is Kabuto moving his body like that?" Sakura asked
"He's not. That's Naruto doing that. He's hitting him while moving so fast that he seemingly disappeared." Kakashi said
"How does he do it? I've never seen somebody move so fast before." Sakura said
"He's not even moving at full speed right now." Kakashi said
"WHAT?" Everyone yelled
"How fast is he?" Kurenai asked
"Fast enough that not even my sharingan can follow him and that's just pure speed." Kakashi said
"That does make sense now that I think about it." Natsumi said
"What do you mean?" Shikamaru asked
"Well, we both use resistance seals and he still has his activated." Natsumi said
"Can somebody explain to me what resistance seals are?" Ino asked
"It's a seal that acts like a gravity seal minus the negative effects. The resistance seal adds a pressure to your body, sort of like gravity, but it's not gravity. Think of it as trying to run or walk against a strong wind storm that gets stronger the higher you increase the level of resistance." Natsumi said
"That sounds extremely hard." Sakura said
"It is." Natsumi said
Kabuto vs Naruto
Naruto had Kabuto backed into a corner thanks to him only having one arm to use and the multitude of ninjutsu Naruto threw his way. Kabuto saw a small opening and kicked Naruto away to catch his breath, but then had to move out of the way from Naruto's lightning beast jutsu.
"There's no way he can be stronger than me. How is it possible that I'm losing? My arm still hasn't regained feeling yet and that is a major disadvantage. I'm not good with one handed seals yet which means I can't heal myself. I can use THAT jutsu, but using it on such a minor problem would be foolish." Kabuto thought and then coughed up blood
"What?" Kabuto asked
"I'm not just hitting your pressure points. My attacks are all pinpoint accurate. You may be a medical ninja, but when you're healing yourself, you're not healing yourself completely. I've trained my sharingan to the point where I can zoom in and see the smallest of detail which means I see all the points where you took major damage that you couldn't heal properly. Tsunade Senju is the only person alive who can heal her own wounds and be good as new afterwards with no remaining damage." Naruto said
"An Uchiha complementing a Senju? Have you finally realized how inferior your clan is to them?" Kabuto asked, as he was trying to goad Naruto into making a mistake
"I don't care about some stupid Senju and Uchiha rivalry. The Senju clan hasn't done anything to me personally. There is no doubt in my mind that Tsunade is the best medic in the world. She deserves all the respect she can get." Naruto said and fired his lightning ball jutsu at Kabuto who dodged, but got hit with Naruto's electromagnetic murder
"I can't win this. I came into the fight without knowing any of his skills and I still feel like he's holding back. I can't heal my wounds right now and I need to report back to Lord Orochimaru about Naruto's sharingan." Kabuto thought and twitched as the lightning chakra was still flowing through his body
"I-I give up." Kabuto said
"Figures." Naruto said and walked away
"Winner of the match, Naruto Uchiha." Hayate said
Stands
"Good match, Naruto." Temari said, as he walked by her
"Thank beautiful." Naruto said and she blushed
"Idiot." Temari mumbled
"Don't think it'll be that easy when you have to fight me in the finals." Kankuro said
"I'll be waiting, make-up boy." Naruto said and Kankuro growled
"It's war paint." Kankuro said and Naruto ignored him as he walked up to the disguised ninja
"Nice disguise, Iwaji." Naruto said and his eyes went wide
"He already knew I was here!" Iwaji thought
"I'll see you in the next round." Naruto said and walked away
"You totally kicked his ass!" Natsumi said
"Yeah, Naruto. I thought you were gliding across the ground at first until Kakashi-sensei explained it to us." Sakura said
"Why did you use your sword?" Natsumi asked
"Because I didn't need it. Plus, you're the only person left that can use a sword in this tournament. Make sure you win your match." Naruto said
"My win is guaranteed. You better train hard or I'm going to kick your ass." Natsumi said
"I don't know. Even if I trained for a day, you'd still be too weak for me." Naruto said
"What was that?" Natsumi asked and got in his face
"You heard me. There may be a chance we can both become chunin after this, but only one person can win the entire thing. I plan on winning this entire tournament and nothing will stop me." Naruto said and released some of his chakra
"I bet you I'll win this entire thing." Natsumi said, as she released some of her own chakra
"Um. Guys." Sakura said and slowly started to back away
"Name your terms." Naruto said
"When I win the chunin exams, you have to take Hinata out on a date." Natsumi said
"I don't even know who that is, but sure." Naruto said
"Oh hell no!" Temari thought
"A-A d-date with Naruto." Hinata thought and passed out
"When I win the chunin exams, you have to makeout with Kiba." Naruto said and they never noticed the cracks in the ground they were making
"Guys, seriously." Sakura said, as she was starting to shake
"Okay. That's enough you two." Kakashi said
"Sheesh. The amount of chakra these two have is incredible. Natsumi I understand because she's a jinchuriki, but Naruto's reserves are nearly the size of mine." Kakashi thought
"Do we have a deal?" Naruto asked
"No! I'm not kissing Kiba! He licks dog ass!" Natsumi said
"Fine. After I win and humiliate you in the next round, you have to confess your feelings to your crush." Naruto said
"Alright. Skip the date with Hinata. I win and you have to ask your crush out in front of everybody. Deal?" Natsumi asked and spit on her hand before extending it
"Deal." Naruto said and spit on his hand before shaking hers
"How did he do that without removing his mask?" Kakashi thought
"See you in the finals, fishcake." Natsumi said
"See you there, tomato." Naruto said, as he walked away and her eye twitched
"Where are you going, Naruto?" Sakura asked
"Yeah. Don't you want to see who your opponent is for the next round?" Ino asked
"Nope. I want it to be a surprise." Naruto said
"Cheater! You're going to get a head start!" Natsumi said
"If you look at the board then you should see that your next match shouldn't take that long." Naruto said and when Natsumi looked at the board, she saw she was facing Kiba
"Piece of cake! Come on, Mutt! I don't have all day!" Natsumi said as she jumped into the fighting area and Naruto vanished
Naruto
After leaving the chunin exams area, Naruto decided to go for a soak in the hot springs and relax since his body was stiff from the crappy beds in the forest of death tower. Now he realized why Anko never slept there when she was tired. Since he had a month to train for the finals, he was going to train with the dragons since he figured Kakashi would be training Sasuke for security purposes. After an hour of soaking, Naruto got dressed and was about to leave until he felt a certain chakra signature on the outside of the women's side of the hot spring. He sighed and vanished to go see the resident perv.
"You really need a new hobby." Naruto said
"Shhhhh. It's getting to the good part." Jiraiya said
"Do you seriously have no shame?" Naruto asked
"Nope. So, what brings you here? Are you going to peep as well?" Jiraiya asked and pulled out another telescope
"No. I was on the male side when I felt your chakra over here. What are you doing here anyway besides being a pervert?" Naruto asked
"I'm actually here for you and your sister." Jiraiya said
"Care to explain a bit better so you don't sound like a pedophile?" Naruto asked
"Right. I'm here to let you know that I should be able to find Tsunade in about 2 months and I'm here to train the both of you for the chunin exam finals." Jiraiya said
"I'll have to pass on the training with you. I already have someone to train me." Naruto said
"I'm not really surprised that you decline, but I would like to know who's training you?" Jiraiya asked
"Lady Catalina." Naruto said and Jiraiya stopped peeping
"You have the dragon contract already?" Jiraiya asked
"Yeah. I've had it for a few months. The dragons are going to train me for a month." Naruto said
"I see." Jiraiya said
"Who are you exactly? I mean the old man seems to trust you with me and Natsumi. You know our parents, but you haven't exactly revealed who you are." Naruto said
"Since your heritage is going to be revealed at the chunin exams, I might as well tell you. I'm your godfather." Jiraiya said
"Okay." Naruto said and Jiraiya nearly fell out of the tree
"That's all you have to say?" Jiraiya asked
"I'm sure Natsumi will give you enough hell when you tell her, so I figured one beating is enough for you." Naruto said
"That's just wrong." Jiraiya said and Naruto shrugged
"So, what exactly are you going to train Natsumi in?" Naruto asked
"She needs to know how to use the nine tails chakra." Jiraiya said
"Nope. She'll reject you in a heartbeat. She wants to grow strong with her own power before she even tries to use the nine tails chakra. Listen, I know my sister and she'll want some jutsus plus something special. She has three chakra natures and a kekkei genkai. Wind, water, earth and wood." Naruto said
"Wood? How? She's not a Senju." Jiraiya said
"Don't look at me. I do have a theory that since she has the wood kekkei genkai, the nine tails chakra doesn't really affect her like it should. Maybe the wood kekkei genkai is negating the negative effects of the nine tails chakra even though she has no idea on how to use her kekkei genkai." Naruto said
"Hm. That could be the case. The wood kekkei genkai does have the ability to suppress the chakra of a tailed beast. I'll have to change her entire training regime." Jiraiya said
"Make sure you get her a kenjutsu teacher. She has the kubikiribocho." Naruto said
"I get that she's your sister and that you'd do anything to make her safe, but helping a potential opponent in training seems a bit off." Jiraiya said
"It's not that. I just have a bad feeling that her life is going to get hectic soon and it has nothing to do with the chance of Iwa or Kumo going after her." Naruto said
"You have no idea how right you are." Jiraiya said
"What do you mean?" Naruto asked
"There's a group of S-rank criminals known as the akatsuki. I don't know exactly what their plans are, but from what I gathered, the tailed beasts are involved. That's another reason I came around. With me watching over her now, I'm hoping it will force them to delay their plans so I can make sure she's properly prepared." Jiraiya said
"S-rank criminals huh? Guess that means I'll have to train harder in order to protect her." Naruto said
"You need to train really hard. There's a chance some of them are stronger than me." Jiraiya said and Naruto was shocked because he's heard stories of how strong Jiraiya was when he got serious
"I thought Orochimaru was a big enough problem already." Naruto said
"Orochimaru? What do you mean?" Jiraiya asked
"He's been here for the first two parts of the chunin exams, but he's gone. He gave Sasuke the curse mark since he's after the sharingan. I think he's after something else since he was the jonin instructor for the sound team that's here for the chunin exams." Naruto said
"If he's the jonin instructor, how did he give Sasuke the curse mark?" Jiraya asked
"He apparently killed a Kusa team and literally took their faces to sneak into the exams." Naruto said
"That's really disturbing." Jiraiya said
"You're telling me. Anyway, I need to get going. You should find Natsumi to begin her training." Naruto said
"Before you go, take this. It's a jutsu from your father and I think both you and Natsumi are ready to learn it." Jiraiya said and tossed him a scroll
"Thank you." Naruto said and summoned Tatsu
"What's up, Naruto?" Tatsu asked
"I've got a month off to train for the chunin exams. I figured I could come and train with Lady Catalina." Naruto said
"Great! Let's go!" Tatsu said
"See ya, pervy-sage." Naruto said and they went up in smoke
"DON'T CALL ME THAT." Jiraiya yelled and then he heard a female scream
"There's a pervert in the tree!"
"Dammit!" Jiraiya said and quickly left
Dragons den
"Woah." Naruto said as he was looking around
"Pretty sweet, right?" Tatsu asked
"I'll say. This place is amazing." Naruto said
"I'm glad you think that, Naruto." Catalina said as she approached them
"Lady Catalina, Naruto is here for his month of training." Tatsu said
"I see. You're dismissed, Tatsu. I'll handle things from here." Catalina said
"Yes ma'am." Tatsu said and flew away
"Do you have any questions before your training starts?" Catalina asked
"What exactly will I be learning?" Naruto asked
"You'll learn one or two techniques from us and from what you told me about your fire chakra nature, we'll work on getting you fire chakra nature stronger. We'll also have a spar everyday after your training." Catalina said
"Uh. How exactly?" Naruto asked
"Oh. Right. Some of us dragons have the ability to change into a human form. Now, I'll be the one to help with your fire chakra nature, but elder Drago will be the one mainly training you." Catalina said
"Cool. So, what techniques will I learn?" Naruto asked
"They're both ninjutsu called dragons roar and dragon lords. However, in order for that to happen, you must unlock your draconic chakra that is deep within you." Catalina said
"Draconic chakra?" Naruto asked
"It's similar to the chakra of a tailed beast. Your mother went through a ritual to get the dragon chakra, but you were apparently born with it somehow. Now, in order to unlock your draconic chakra, you'll have to meditate similar to unlocking your chakra, but dig even deeper and you should feel it. Once you manage to pull out your draconic chakra, it will merge with your own chakra and you'll be able to use it at will. Of course your chakra control will take a hit, but we'll work on that as well." Catalina said
"Cool. When do we start?" Naruto asked and then a red dragon with clawed wings and feet, a long neck, slender body and a long, sharp horn on the end of the snout. Along with small spikes along its back.
"Your training starts now, Naruto." The dragon said
"Elder Drago." Catalina said
"I'll send him to you after I am finished with him. Come along, Naruto. You have a very long month ahead of you." Drago said
"Alright." Naruto said
"Naruto." A voice whispered and only Naruto heard it
"Huh?" Naruto asked
"What is it?" Catalina asked
"None of you heard that?" Naruto asked
"Heard what?" Drago asked
"Nothing. Nevermind." Naruto said
"Very well. Let us get started. Hop on." Drago said and Naruto jumped into his back
"So, do I need to be in some special area when I'm unlocking the draconic chakra?" Naruto asked
"Not really, but I'll take you to the dragon temple." Drago said and flew off
"Don't worry, Sayuri. We'll train him properly." Catalina said and flew off as she remembered her former friend/summoner
"The new summoner is indeed powerful. Looks like I found my perfect host to be reborn." A dragon said from the shadows and turned into a light before vanishing into thin air
Dragon temple
"This place is huge." Naruto said
"Well, we are dragons so we need a large space." Drago said
"I'll say." Naruto said and sensed something fast coming at him
"What is it?" Drago asked
"I don't know. Something was coming at me, but then it vanished. I don't know what it was, but I think it's GAH!" Naruto yelled and held his right hand in pain
"Naruto, are you okay?" Drago asked
"I'm fine, but what the hell is this?" Naruto asked and showed him a dragon shaped seal on his hand
"Dumir. He's an evil dragon that lives here. You aren't the first person he's done this to, but we haven't seen him in ages and thought he died. Apparently we were wrong. This seal is his attempt at trying to take over your body and be reborn as a hybrid human and dragon." Drago said
"Well, he's a dumbass because I should be able to remove this in a month or so." Naruto said
"It's removable?" Drago asked
"Yeah. It's a pretty basic seal. I'm close to mastering the evil unsealing method. After the chunin exams I can come back here and then remove him from my body." Naruto said
"Very well. However, you will be closely monitored even more now that he's given you that mark. I'll inform the other dragons of what is going on after your training today and then we'll move on from there." Drago said
"Okay. So, how am I supposed to know what my draconic chakra feels like?" Naruto asked
"You'll feel a tremendous amount of pressure coming from the chakra. At first it will feel like it's suffocating you, but once you manage to pull it out and a few lessons with it, you won't feel that pressure anymore." Drago said
"Can I do anything cool with it?" Naruto asked
"Yes. You can use this chakra with your jutsus to give them more power. You will also gain the healing ability of a dragon. It won't be as quick as a tailed beast's healing ability they grant to their jinchuriki, but it has the same capabilities. Now, sit in a meditative position and search for your draconic chakra. After that, you'll have to work on your chakra control." Drago said
Naruto nodded and got started right away. He was trying to search for his chakra when he wound up in a dark area surrounded by a huge sea of blue chakra. He felt his normal chakra coming from the sea of chakra, but when he used his sensing ability to its max internally, he felt a small amount of pressure which he figured was his draconic chakra buried underneath his normal chakra. He sensed quite a lot and could feel the pressure that made his body feel heavy. He pulled on it and all of a sudden he was surrounded by a green aura that was his draconic chakra.
"I take it that his training is going well." Catalina said as she arrived at the dragon temple
"I'm not sure. He's been sitting there for about an hour." Drago said
"We shouldn't worry too much. Sayuri took even longer to pull out her draconic chakra after she went through the ritual." Catalina said
"Yes. That was probably the most stressful week I've ever had. Dealing with her feisty attitude and the new hatchlings was something I did not want to do." Drago said
"I believe that was the week she found out she was pregnant as well, so it was kind of expected since her emotions were going wild." Catalina said
"I suppose you're right." Drago said and then a large amount of draconic chakra was felt coming from Naruto
"Incredible. He has as much draconic chakra as Sayuri did, if not more. How though?" Catalina asked
"His draconic chakra must've been feeding off of his normal chakra throughout the years. Good work, Naruto." Drago said
"Thanks. I didn't think the pressure would be so much to cause me to sweat." Naruto said
"It has that effect on humans. The same thing happened to your mother when she was training." Catalina said
"Yes indeed. Now that you have accessed your draconic chakra, it's time to start training you with it. In order to help you gain your chakra control back to where it was, you'll be doing waterfall walking. The key is for you to be able to walk up the waterfall and then walk back down with no problem. You'll do this using your regular chakra and draconic chakra. Any questions?" Drago asked
"This won't kill me, will it?" Naruto asked
"Only if you can't swim." Drago said
"Then let's get started." Naruto said
Drago nodded and then Naruto's brutal training started. Coincidentally, Natsumi was also going through her own training with Jiraiya and a member of the anbu. While both would be stronger, neither of them were prepared for what would happen during the finals.
Somebody asked me while ago to make pokemon story with the Naruto character and I've decided to give it a try. The pairing will be Naruto x Shizuka. If the story sucks, I will discontinue it. I might upload it tomorrow or next week some time.
