All the Konoha genins gathered together in the stands while cheering, talking, eating (in choji's case) or something. Hayate coughed up telling everyone to take their seats again for next matches. H
iruzen took up the mic from Hayate to announce something, the crowd dropped down in silence for the announcement.
"Before we begin the next matches I'd like to make an announcement, more like a revelation. It's related to late Yondaime, 12 years ago before the Kyubi attacked the village, it was sealed within Uzumaki Kushina late Yondaime Namikaze Minato's wife before her it was sealed inside 1st Hokage Senju Hashirama's wife Uzumaki Mito. At that time she was pregnant during childbirth an unknown enemy attacked them extracting the Kyubi from her, she was the only thing that was keeping the village safe from kyubi, somehow the Yondaime managed to capture the kyubi with his wife's help after fighting off the unknown enemy. But before they died, he & his wife seal the kyubi within a baby, who could with withhold the seal & not die. Therefore they sealed it in their own son who was just born that night, the child who was announced dead but in reality he's still alive, the son of Yondaime 'Konoha's yellow flash' Minato Namikaze & 'Red Hot Habanero' Uzumaki Kushina; Uzumaki- Namikaze Naruto. His identity was hidden because of the enemy his parents had but it was long enough." The crowd had shock faces while Naruto had tears after learning of his parents death. Hayate to ease the tension thanked the hokage & begin the next match.
Neji Vs Haku
T
The crowd after breaking from the shockful trance cheered for the genins to come ahead as they smirked & went their ways, Hinata & Ino stood in the stands with pom poms in their hands which still no one knew where it came from, while cheering for the two boys.
"Hajime!" Hayate coughed.
"Let's give them a show Neji." Haku smirked.
"You bet" Neji smirked back smugly.
Neji charged towards Haku as Haku threw his senbons towards the younger Hyuga with precise aim, Neji used a kunai to deflect the senbons coming his way. The ice user started aiming on vulnerable points but not the vitals.
Neji hissed in pain as they pricked him, he dashed forward engaging in Taijutsu with the ice user, Haku's speed barely giving him any advantage against the Hyuga prodigy's attack. Neji saw an opening & kicked Haku square in the jaw who skidded back.
Haku cursed while doing few handsigns as ice needles formed around him attacking the Hyuga, Neji's eyes widened but then smirked while performing a normal Hyuga rotation. The Hyuga clan elders being the petty little bitches they are roared in anger as to how a branch
member could perform such a main house technique. One look of pure terror release from Kakashi, Gai, Hinata & Hiashi shut them up quickly.
Neji's rotation caused few puffs of smoke around the arena, Haku tried using Zabuza's silent killing technique to locate the Hyuga nin. Neji's byakugan activated eyes hardened as he smirked while charging towards the ice user yelling '8 Trigrams : 64 palms' Haku quickly staggered behind trying to gain balance after having a brutal not so gentle fist on him.
Neji's eyes widened in surprise to see the ice user still standing.
"I didn't expect you to be still standing have to hand it to you, I'm impressed." Neji smirked.
"You're forgetting that I spar with Hinata a lot, sometimes 32 palms feels like a massage. My knowledge in human anatomy gives me advantage even after my Chakra points are close, my chakra coil is like an endless waterfall. Nothing can stop them from flowing I can manipulate it before your palms even touch me." Haku smirked as he saw neji's horrified look.
"Now I'll show you why you shouldn't mess with an ice user."
Haku did handsigns as a mild mist formed while multiple ice mirrors materialized from thin air. The temperature around the arena dropped as the crowd stared in a mesmerized trance gasping when Haku emerged in the ice mirror fully.
Neji panicked while trying to think of a way to escape the mirror dome. Haku chuckled bit quickly send over wave of senbons attacking the Hyuga. Neji used his byakugan to dodged most of them but still ended up being a human pincushion.
Neji glared at Haku's reflection in the mirror who just smiled innocently in return.
"Forfeit Neji, Don't make me aim your vitals. You might not make it out alive." Haku said seriously with a bit concern evident on his face.
Neji sighed & nodded.
"I, Neji Hyuga, forfeit." Neji's loud voice boomed throughout the quite arena. Naruto was sure he could hear his heartbeats.
Haku smiled as he undid the ice mirrors & walking towards Neji giving him a hand to help. Neji accepted it shrugging while Hayate annouced Haku as the winner.
Everyone cheered for Haku while praising neji's skills.
Gaara Vs Sasuke
Hayate annouced while everyone roared in anticipation. (Same as canon, I'm too lazy to write the whole thing)
Gaara was still screaming manically as he jumped out of the destroyed arena while being under Shukaku's influence his siblings following him under Baki's order. Everyone in the audience was caught under Kabuto's genjutsu, Sakura & Haku broke free first as did Kurenai & Kakashi.
Kakashi saw Sasuke following Gaara out of the arena as he sighed summoning Pakkun ordering him to help everyone , he quickly met up with Zabuza, Gai & other jounins who dispelled the genjutsu with Sakura, Haku & Kurenai's help. Hinata & Naruto were woken up by Sakura, they quickly made their way towards Kakashi while fighting off few Sound ninjas who were in the way.
Kakashi saw his genins running towards him & sighed in relief.
"Listen here you two, I need to go after Sasuke he went after Gaara - he's under One tail's influence so be careful. Make sure none of you or Sasuke hurt yourselves. I'll dispatch another cell when I'm done dealing with these sound ninjas hold your own till then." Both genins nodded in understanding & went towards Sasuke's direction.
"Oi, Kakashi don't lag off my score is 24. My power of youth is looking to be better than yours." Gai exclaimed grinning while fighting 3 sound ninjas.
"Don't worry Gai, mine is 27. If anything it's your youthfulness fading away." The masked ninja smirked.
"You both are acting like kids, stop competing here atleast. Just to rub in your faces my score is 31." Zabuza said while charging towards 2 more sound ninjas with his blade.
"... that's 33 now." Smirked the demon ninja.
"Seriously you're jounins get your game up I'm on 37." Haku scowled while plunging another barrel of Senbon towards 3 ninjas.
The jounins shut their mouths up in embarrassment of a genin showing them off & fought more roughly than before.
Hinata followed Sasuke with Naruto searching for him with her byakugan activated. Shino & Shikamaru joined the duo to help them search for Sasuke. Out of the corner, from her byakugan Hinata noticed the another hoarde of sound ninjas making their way towards them in order to get to Gaara eventually, she informed her comrades of the development.
"What a drag...you three go ahead I'll do something to hold them off." Shikamaru explained lazily.
"You sure Shikamaru?" Naruto asked.
"Hai, no go ahead."
They went their way ahead & saw Sasuke hot in pursuit.
"Sasuke-teme!" Naruto yelled.
"Good you're all here, we need to catch up to them quickly." Sasuke ordered as they all followed.
Kankuro & Temari noticed the additional genins behind their trail & cursed.
"Temari, I'll hold them off. Take Gaara away till he's stable." Kankuro said while stopping, Temari breathed out in stress but picked Gaara up & went ahead.
"One of them- the puppet user has decided to stay behind while another is taking Gaara ahead." Hinata said while analysing with her byakugan.
"I'll hold him off, Why? Because I want to check my strength against another long range fighter." Shino explained while pushing his glasses behind.
"But-" Sasuke was about to interject when Naruto cut him off.
"That's a great idea, Thank you Shino." The bug user just nodded. Team 7 followed Gaara as Shino confronted Kankuro. The met up with a partial transformed unstable Gaara with a fatigued Temari carrying him. Gaara senses the arrival of other familiar ninjas & stopped Temari insisted on still going on when he flipped her off of the branch, Naruto quickly dashed off his brach jumping in to save the Sand kunoichi from her fall. Gaara's transformation increased as a sand hand began to grow from him.
Due to the transformation, Gaara's speed & strength increased as he charged towards the dōujutsu users. Sasuke did the handsigns for his Chidori as Hinata did her Twin fangs, they both incorporated their jutsus & ran towards the incoming attack. With one clean sweep they cut Gaara's transformed arm off. After seeing his own blood & severed sand arm Gaara growled sprouting a tail & another arm.
Naruto jumped on the branch making multiple clones as they all started attacking Gaara, with his sand arm & tail he quickly dispelled them without any issue.
Meanwhile Hiruzen stood over a roof with a disguised Orochimaru as he revealed himself. The four sound ninja jumped in quickly making a barrier just a second before the barrier could close off Jiraiya, Tsunade, Raikage & Tsuchikage jumped inside with the help of Raikage's great speed & Tsuchikage's levitating ability.
Ino-Shika-Cho & others fought the snake summons & the sound-sand ninjas. The younin summoned a lion while Daichi summoned a Phoenix throwing off fore jutsus scorching them, Haku hypnotized the sound ninja with his Ice mirrors & senboning them into oblivion, Sai drew multiple beasts from the sky on his bird while sealing a few. Shisui summoned Ninja cats while flickering towards the sound ninja & putting them in genjutsu. The Aburame summoned their gigantic insects while the Inuzuka brought up their hounds as the Hyuga knocked off every enemy ninja in the way as helping their allies to locate the disguised ones.
Inside the barrier Orochimaru scowled at the uninvited addition, Tsunade & Jiraiya looked towards the 2 Kage in question as they just shrugged.
"You will...help us?" Jiraiya asked hesitantly.
"It's only fair, the bastard took disguise as Kazekage meaning he probably killed him. If he can assassinate one Kage what's stopping him from killing us." Raikage explained as the other Kahe nodded in agreement.
"Thank you for your efforts, I'm sure your act of kindness will help in strengthen the bond between our villages as allies. Leaf in indebted to your actions." Tsunade thanked & turned towards the snake sanin.
"Give up Oro-teme, you can't win against all of us alone." Jiraiya said.
"Tsk, the same fouled mouth perverted toad face, I see. Just so you know I'm not alone, I know exactly who will win against you." Pedochimaru smirked.
The snake did multiple complex handsigns & slammed his palm on the roof summoning few wooden craters. The crater opened as all of the Kage & sanins gasped & stared in shock, jaw agapped.
Inside the wooden craters stood 1st Hokage - Hashirama Senju, 2nd Hokage - Tobirama Senju, 2nd Tsuchikage - Mū, 3rd Raikage - Aye. They all stood in the place with their lifeless body & cracked skin. Orochimaru walked towards the dead Kages before doing handsigns bringing them back to life by Edo - Tensei. (I know Mū & Aye weren't in canon but who cares my fanfiction my rules, I just wanted to spice things up fufu I'm evil.)
The genins stared in horror as the tail & arm regenerated again & again, having enough of the pesty brats Shukaku started to overwhelm Gaara's will for control. Gaara resisted for a few minutes before tiring off & giving in to his 'mother', Shukaku grinned sickly & transformed into his actual form.
'hey kit'
'Oh it's you fox, what do you want? Can't you see I'm a bit busy!'
'tch, that's one tail Shukaku, like me'
'Shuka-who?'
'This brat, tch Gaara he's like you a jinjuriki, he's the container of the One tail, Ichibī Shukaku. He's in control now not the brat.'
'You know him?'
'Of course I do, he's supposed to be the weakest of all tailed beasts but still his tricky & mischievous personality is not something to be underestimated.'
'So Shukaku, that's his name? What's yours then?!'
'tch... I'll tell you some other day when I see you worthy of knowing it.'
'lazy fox..'
'i heard that brat!'
Soon Naruto finished his internal conversation with the Kyubi & turned towards his friends.
"Okay listen here, the fox said Gaara is a jinjuriki like me, he carries the one tailed beast Shukaku. So what we're seeing here is his transformed self." Naruto explained.
"You talked to fox? / Makes senses..." Sasuke & Hinata said simultaneously.
"So what do we do? We can't fight this giant ass... raccoon/cat just by ourselves. We don't know when the backup will be dispatched." Sasuke said while trying to figure out the animal.
"Wanna try summoning?" Hinata proposed.
"Oh shit! Yes! I forgot about it. We should do that!" Naruto pumped his fists.
" I cannot summon both, I hardly have enough chakra for one." Hinata said sadly.
"That's right, my summoning is a little demanding but is strong anyways I don't think I'll be able to do anything after that." Sasuke agreed.
"Oh that won't be a problem" Naruto grinned as he placed his hands on both of his teammates shoulder giving them extra chakra from his seemingly endless reserves.
"Ohh ...thanks for the extra chakra Naruto, I think I might be able to do both." Hinata smiled.
"I can juice out 2-3 more Chidori & a few other after summoning... Thanks" Sasuke shrugged.
"Yosh, Hinata-chan, Sasuke let's go!" Naruto fistbumped.
They all stood up biting their thumb & doing handsigns while slapping their palm or both palms in Hinata's case on the ground.
With a huge poof of smoke, there stood a huge one eyed crimson red snake on the left, a huge pure glowing white furred wolf in the middle & a huge orange-ish red toad with a sword & smoke pipe in mouth on the right. Another poof in the air, revealing a silver feathered owl almost as big as Sai's ink birds.
"Why am I here brat?" The toad yelled angrily to Naruto who was on his head.
"Ah, Chief toad don't be mad I needed your help that's why I summoned you." Naruto tried calmly Gamabunta.
"I agreed to be your summon I never agreed to help you. We haven't drunk over it to seal the deal." Gamabunta reasoned.
"I'm not allowed to drink yet!" Naruto yelled back.
"Oh..strange humans, anyways I'll help you brat but you owe me & start with giving me respect." Gama smirked.
"Okay, Thanks Gamabunta-sama" Naruto grinned sheepishly.
"Fucking toads..." The snake muttered under his breath.
"What do you want Uchiha?" The snake asked the Uchiha on his head.
"I wanted you to help us fight the one tailed, Garaga-sama" Sasuke answered.
"You know the deal, I'll help you in return I want wine." Garaga smirked.
"Yes I'll have a barrel of Uchiha's finest wine send over to you." Sasuke smirked back.
(So I know Garaga wasn't in Naruto but in Boruto but I wanted emo-chan to have an early summon. Don't worry Aoda fans, our golden retriever will appear in the future. I'll also explain how they all got their summonings later if I don't feel lazy)
"You called me for the same reason, Hinata-sama?" The white wolf asked politely.
"Yes, Asahi-sama. We need your help to defeat one tail, he's taken over his Jinjuriki & transformed." Hinata explained.
"Why is Hinata-chan's summoning so nice to her & ours acts like pricky asses." Naruto whispered to the Uchiha.
"Yeah, her's give her respect too. Ours want something in return plis insults us all the time, fucking assholes." Sasuke agreed.
"We heard that brats!" The toad & snake yelled in unison
"Better keep your mouth shut if you want our help." Garaga threatened.
"Yes, it'll be an honor to help you Hinata-sama." The wolf replied softly.
"What can I serve you with, my mistress?" The flying owl asked.
"Seiko-sama, I need you to head towards the village with my clone & help the injured while evacuating." Hinata said while making a crystal clone who flied off with Seiko, Sasuke turned towards them explaining his plan.
"Come on, brats let's do this." Gamabunta said while releasing a puff of smoke from his mouth.
Garaga slithered towards the raging Shukaku smacking him away with his tail, Shukaku got up yelling about beating them back. Gamabunta unsheathed his huge sword & jumped over Shukaku cutting off his arms.
Shukaku yelled manically threatening them, Asahi jumped over a jumping Shukaku clawing him down in one place as signalling for the next attack. The three genins stood on their summons with snake on the left, wolf in the middle, toad on the right. They did multiple handsigns in unison infusing chakra to ready their jutsus.
A huge lilac dragon head materialized itself with glowing white eyes behind Asahi as Hinata yelled ' Amethyst Mythical Dragon'; Sparks thundered as a dark blue dragon of lightening with glowing red eyes towered Garaga as Sasuke yelled 'Sapphire Thundering Dragon'; Dark Orange-ish Red flames materialized carrying an aura of sharp wind in the form of a dragon with dark blue eyes hovering over Gamabunta as Naruto yelled 'Crimson Raging Dragons'. All the three nins sending their attack onto the screaming Shukaku simultaneously as he stopped ramping & gave Gaara his control back.
The dead Kages stared in confusion & shock as did the alive sanins & Kages.
"How the hell am I here?" Aye yelled angrily.
"Tobi? Brother?" Hashirama asked.
"Yes it's me brother." Tobirama answered calmly.
"Does anyone know why we're here when we're supposed to be dead?" Mū asked.
"It's one of my forbidden jutsu, edo-tensei it landed in the hands of wrong people I see." Tobirama answered.
"Yes Nidaime you're right, I'm the one who performed the jutsu." Orochimaru's proudly chidded from behind.
"A squash like you?" Mū asked as the snake's eye twitched.
Tsunade snorted at the reference as all the attention was on her now, she cleared her throat.
"Tsuna? Is that you? You're all grown up!" Hashirama excitedly asked.
"Yes, jii-chan it's me" Tsunade muttered.
"Hiruzen, what is this monstrosity? I thought I ordered this jutsu to be forbidden but it's still being used that too to revive the dead Kages?" Tobirama scolded.
"Oh my, that's Hiru-chan? He looks...rather...Old.." Hashirama sweated as Jiraiya laughed at it.
"Hello, I'm Jiraiya, The toad sage, I use to be Tsunade's teammate & old man's student back in the day." Jiraiya introduced himself.
"Oh toad age that's really nice, you must be quite strong tell me do you know senjutsu?" Hashirama asked.
"Oh yes, I learned senjutsu back in the day with the help of toads in the Mount Myoboku." Jiraiya answered smiling.
"I've heard a lot about that place, it's a heaven for senjutsu they say." Tobirama praised.
"Yes we get it senjutsu is great now can we focus on the situation at the hand." Dead Aye said in irritation.
"Thank you Raikage-sama I thought they'll never stop..." Orochimaru sighed exasperated.
"Don't thank me boy, tell me why we're here? " Dead Aye asked.
"Ah, game time is over I guess. Well, you're gonna fight them as my pawns to accomplish my goal of taking over the leaf & other ninja villages." The snake smirked.
"Like hell you will" Alive Aye yelled.
Soon Hinata's clone & Seiko reached towards the chaos, they quickly helped everyone while carrying the injured to safety & attacking the enemy. Seiko noticed the tall four sided barrier & informed Hinata.
"I can't see what's going on inside because of the barrier, we've helped most of them, let's check that out." Hinata said as Seiko flew over the very tall barrier with no roof & got inside. Hinata's clone gasped as she saw the dead hokages.
"Hinata what are you doing here?" Hiruzen asked.
"I'm not Hinata I'm her clone, she's fighting off one tailed beasts with Sasuke & Naruto." The clone answered.
"You three are fighting alone? Without any jounins? You're still genins you stupid brats." Tsunade yelled.
"They're not alone completely, see for yourself." Seiko answered nodding his head over to Shukaku & the summons direction.
Everyone turned towards their direction in interest after hearing Ichibī's name. They all stared in shock as they saw the huge summons with their owner on their heads & their crystal, lightening, fire dragons behind ready to attack. They saw how the attack annihilated the tailed beast.
"My those are some fine shinobi, they're genins you say? " Mū asked.
"Yes they are, Hyuga Hinata, Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto. The Uzumaki is the kyubi's jinjuriki & the other two are the heirs." Hiruzen answered.
"Fufu they're great aren't they? That's why I left them with a parting gift." Oro cooed.
"What did you do?" Hashirama gritted in slight anger.
"Ah nothing much just gave them a taste of my power, by putting on a cursed seal & messing kyubi's seal. Don't worry though I won't kidnap them or something I'll make them come to me after they know what true power feels like with the help of the seals." Orochimaru smirked.
"You bastard-" tobirama started but was cut off by his grandniece.
"Good thing, Naruto's an expert in fuinjutsu like his parents. He overlapped your seal to stop any or all of your evil influence within 10 minutes, given him few days I'm sure he'll strip it out too." Tsunade smirked as oro scowled.
Orochimaru did the handsigns & plunged the kunai's into the dead Kages nape. Ordering them to attack.
•••
The dead Kages scowled as Orochimaru inserted the kunai in the nape of their necks.
"We're sorry everyone, we don't want to fight you all but we have no control over it. Please kill us as fast as you can." Hashirama smiled sadly.
"I Second that." Mū answered.
"It's okay, kage-sama you don't have to apologise for anything." Ohnoki assured them.
"Enough chit chat!" Oro yelled.
"Kill them all." Oro ordered the edo Kages.
Hiruzen summoned enma & informed him of the situation while dodging Tobirama's water dragon, Tsunade started smashing Hashirama's wood style with Jiraiya's help, ohnoki turned towards Mū levitating in the air shooting off a strong earth style jutsu, dead Aye & Alive Aye stared at each other before activating their lightening Armor & charged yelling a war cry.
Orochimaru smirked sickly at the fight & he could notice how the edo Kages were slowly starting to overwhelm the Sannins & Kages due to their regenerative abilities & endless stamina & chakra.
Meanwhile with Team 7, the summons puffed themselves away after checking that Shukaku was no longer a threat to everyone. The trio made their way towards the gaara who was slowly regaining consciousness.
"W-what... happened?" The suna jinchuriki asked weakly holding his throbbing head.
"That petty bitch Shukaku took advantage of your vulnerability & manipulated you into giving in control." Sasuke casually shrugged while examining a small cut.
"Shukaku?"
"One tail- Ichibī." Hinata answered as she slowly kneeled to heal Gaara- he hesitated at first but then allowed it.
"Shukaku is sealed within you but your seal is weak that's why he was able to annoy the living hell out of you, manipulate you into giving in control." Naruto said as he examined his seal.
"I can help you if you want..?" Naruto proposed.
"Why would you still wanna help me when my village betrayed yours & just few minutes back I was trying to kill you all." Gaara asked bewildered.
"Orochimaru disguised as Kazekage & planned the attack so technically you weren't at fault, as for trying to kill us we're still alive aren't we?" Sasuke said smirking.
"He means that, it wasn't your fault you were all just pawns in Orochimaru's game. We don't hold any grudges against you." Hinata smiled.
"As for your question, I'll help you with whatever I can. I know how it feels to have a demon living inside you." Naruto sadly muttered the last part.
"You too..?" Gaara asked slowly.
"Yeah, I have nine tails inside me."
"Oh that makes...sense.."
".."
".."
" Gaara, no one better than Naruto knows how much you've suffered, we can barely fathom the thought of your suffering but that doesn't mean you're alone. Naruto has me, Hina, Kakashi & few others, let us help you - let us be your friends. You might think you're always alone but it's not true, I can still see how much your siblings care for you. They're just scared of your outbursts & honestly you can't blame them when you go all 'look at my dark eyes it mirrors my soul, I'll kill you all blablabla' shit on them." Sasuke said while giving a look.
"Be a little sensitive!" Hinata swatted uchiha's hand away.
"He wanted to say that you're not alone, if you just let people in. I don't know about others but we'd love to be your friends." Hinata smiled brightly at the jinchuriki.
"Yosh, I wanna be friends with you. We can visit you there & you can visit us here, we as allies could have missions together-that'd be so cool." Naruto yelled excitedly.
"His...aura changes...rapidly." Gaara breathe out.
"My clone just dispelled itself, we need to go. I'll explain the situation on the way. Naruto when the attack is dealt with you can work on Gaara's seal. Gaara-kun take care of your sister while we-.." Hinata was cut off by gaara
"I'll make a clone to take care of her then come with you to help maybe?" Gaara proposed with hopeful eyes.
"I don't see why we can't do that." Hinata said smiling at Gaara.
The said boy blush a little before making a clone, Sasuke noticed the blush & glared at the suna nin so did Naruto- but he laughed his ass off seeing Sasuke glaring.
They all use Gaara's sand to fly over all the destruction, fights & chaos as Hinata explained the edo tensei situation.
They reached there & quickly went to work by knocking the sound 4 who were maintaining the barrier meanwhile Naruto's clones readied themselves & seals to undo the barrier.
With the help of Gaara's sand real Naruto & team 7 with the suna nin flew into the barrier to witness utter chaos.
Tsunade, Jiraiya- the kages were injured here & there, exhausted, low on chakra. Naruto quickly jumped off the sand & face the side which had his clones on the other side, Naruto sat & started working on seals from both sides to dispel the barrier with more ease. Sasuke stood to defend Naruto from the chaos while Gaara & Hinata made their ways to made their ways to help the sanins.
Gaara helped Aye & Ohnoki with Mū & dead Aye while Hinata helped went to help the sannins with the dead hokages. Gaara used his sand to mess with their footings & rapidly send sand attacks towards the two when he saw an opening.
Hinata used her crystal release against Hashirama's wood style to destroy while using her Vaccum Palm to obliterate through the wood forest. She gave Tsunade a look as Jiraiya used fire style to cremate the wood forest, Tsunade charged towards the 1st hokage with a chakra punch, destroying his arm & left shoulder into splinters, hinata quickly did handsigns & jumped over his regenerating shoulders & slammed her palm on Hashirama's forehead, forming a seal over it & restricting his movements.
Naruto created 7 clones- two went to help him with the seal while the other 5 to defend him, he gave Sasuke a knowing look before working on seals again. Sasuke's nodded & made his way to help Hiruzen with Tobirama.
"Tch, an Uchiha brat." Tobirama cursed under his breath.
Tobirama charged a water burst towards the duo to which Sasuke & Hiruzen countered with a fire style. A steam of smoke was formed from the two jutsu colliding.
Sasuke smirked & did handsigns, Hiruzen caught up on it & laced his feet with chakra. Sasuke created a clone unknown to Tobirama & substituted with him, the clone with now had a Chidori in full power charged towards Tobirama only for him to easily dodge it. Oblivious to the real Sasuke behind him, he send a water dragon towards clone Sasuke & Hiruzen.
The real Sasuke did the handsigns & released his snake spark bite in the water on the floor left from Tobirama's previous attack. The attack went through the water, electrifying it towards Tobirama & electrocuted him. The real Sasuke made a Chidori while Hiruzen used his incorporated attack with enma simultaneously, impaling edo tobirama.
Hinata made her way to help Sasuke while Tsunade & Jiraiya went to help Gaara. Hinata again did handsigns & slammed her palm on Tobirama's forehead stopping the regeneration process & restricting any movements.
Jiraiya, Tsunade, Aye, Ohnoki, Gaara quickly worked together & attacked the edo Kages while Jiraiya sealed them with a jutsu similar to Hinata's. Naruto finalky after multiple complicated handsigns slammed his palm as the barrier started to disintegrate. His clones dispelled as he made his way towards others.
Orochimaru yelled in frustration & tried activating curse seal on Hinata & Sasuke but found it useless, he saw a smirking Naruto & cursed. Naruto & Sasuke shared a look & charged towards the snake sanin while hinata took her position. She readied her '8 Trigrams: 256 blades from Orochimaru's blind spot & charged from behind.
She quickly stabbed her chakra swords into his chakra points as her clone sent off a vaccum Palm which he barely dodged but his hands paid the price. Blood prickled from various points in his hands as they went numb while Orochimaru screamed.
"What-what did you do?" Oro yelled.
"Can't you see squash? She destroyed your chakra points." Mū explained while being in his seal.
"Ugh." Yelled oro in frustration.
Few sand ninjas jumped in & picked oro & went off before anyone else could intervene. The edo Kages were soon out of Orochimaru's control & informed the others of it.
Before anyone could say anything tobirama did handsigns as all the edo Kages started cracking & fading away quickly.
"Jii-chan.." Tsunade whispered.
"Don't worry Tsuna, I'm proud of you you're truly a great kunoichi. I'm also proud of you all." Hashirama smiled at everyone as Tsunade held back her tears.
"You all did good" Tobirama said slowly with his usual stoic face before cracking completely, they all faded away at the same time.
The genins were knocked off & blacked out from exhaustion as Hiruzen summoned few chunins nearby to help with the almost dead looking genins.
The genins gained their consciousness after 2 days & were called by the Hokage. Tsunade sat in Hokage's position making them realised that they missed godaime's inauguration.
"Good morning Tsunade-sama" Hinata greeted as other nodded.
They saw Ino, Haku, Shikamaru, Asuma, Jiraiya, Shino, Kakashi, KurenaiZabuza already inside the office & gave a nod of acknowledgment to everyone but just Sasuke bowed slightly towards Zabuza as Hinata did Tsunade & Jiraiya.
"You summoned us, granny?" Naruto yelled in excitement for unknown reasons.
"Don't call me granny brat!" Tsunade yelled.
"Sorry, force of habit.." Naruto replied while fearing for his life.
"I called you all here with your Senseis & Jiraiya as a physical witness to announce that Yamanaka Ino, Nara Shikamaru, Yuki Haku, Aburame Shino, Uzumaki Naruto, Hyuga Hinata & Uchiha Sasuke are promoted to Chunin rank. I'm proud of you all." The 5th hokage announced.
"Troublesome, me & Shino didn't passed to Final rounds, why us?" Shikamaru yawned.
"Yes even I want to know why? Because it doesn't make any sense." Shino asked while pushing his glasses further up his nose.
"You weren't being judged on your ability to win a fight or not, you were judged on your skills as ninjas & your ninja instincts in a fight. You both showed that you are well deserving for the rank just as much as the others." Tsunade smiled warmly at the duo.
"Troublesome.." Shikamaru finished.
"Yosh, I'm Chunin now let's go celebrate." Naruto yelled excitedly as Ino teamed up with him on the idea.
Kurenai & Asuma cursed as they handed Zabuza & Kakashi few ryos.
"You betted on this?" Haku deadpanned.
"They betted that not all three of team 7 & haku would be promoted to Chunin. Guess they were wrong." Kakashi smirked from under his mask.
The genins shooked their heads in disappointment with their sensei's & went out the hokage office to celebrate.

"Thank you, all of you." Gaara gave a soft look towards team 7 as did his siblings.
"No worries, if that Shukaku gives you anymore problem don't hesitate to tell me I'll tighten up the seal again-ttebayo." Naruto gave a thumbs up to the same siblings.
"You're a good person, don't let the racoon or hate get you down." Sasuke said coolly keeping his aloof façade.
"I'd really like a friendly spar with you someday & we'll visit you whenever we're around Suna or visiting there; we might bring Shikamaru with us to see you all." Hinata said smirking slightly at the flustered girl.
"W-why would I want..to m-meet him, huh!?" Temari asked with cheeks dusted pink.
"She never said your name, sister." Gaara said smirking himself in amusement.
"Oh, my, Shikamaru & Temari sitting on a tree K-I-S-S-I--!" Kankuro was cut off as a strong wind attack threw him few metres away by an angry blushing Temari.
"Damn that'll bruise for sure." Naruto muttered after having to experience it himself against the wind kunoichi in Chunin exams.
"Shut up, let's go." Temari said dragging the puppeteer.
Gaara chuckled & turned towards team 7.
"Your laugh is really cute, you should laugh more gaara-kun." Hinata said smiling brightly & oblivious to the red cheeks matching the redhead's hair.
"A-ah thank you." Gaara said a bit flustered as sound of birds chirping soundly & lightening cackling was heard.
Naruto held an angry Sasuke with his Chidori activated ready to attack the redhead.
"Oh for the love of god, Sasuke-teme stop. Gaara go now! Ugh-" Naruto said exasperated as Sasuke thrashed in his hold.
Hinata obliviously stared in confusion as to what happened blinking owlishly. Gaara turned & used his sand to disappear smirking.
"That stupid sand fucker." Sasuke cursed under his breath.
They left the angry Sasuke to himself cursing gaara the whole time as Naruto & Hinata went ahead to made their way to ichiraku's. They saw Shisui & Anko already there with Shisui making joke about something with red ears as anko giggled with flushed cheeks. Team 7 shared a look in disbelief seeing the most sadistic jounin kunoichi blushing & giggling with Shisui & smirked.
They plopped themselves next to the jounin duo's sides & sandwiched them with Sasuke over right of Anko's & Naruto & Hinata over Shisui's left side.
"So Shisui-niisan, how are you?" Naruto asked.
"You too, Anko-sensei." Sasuke asked smirking & sharing a look with smug Naruto as Hinata shakes her head in disappointment in her team-mates subtle & discreet approach to a situation.
"I'm great thank you for asking." Shisui answered after he composed himself.
"Oh wouldn't you be feeling great after spending time with your dear Anko." Naruto said miserably mimicking shisui & failing as Anko choked on ramen broth.
"You brat! Stop teasing me." Shisui whined smacking Naruto on the head.
"Yeah, yeah Naruto-kun don't tease Shisui-niisan. Anko sensei might skin you alive for messing with her 'precious little slut'" Hinata said giggling.
"You traitor." Shisui & Anko said in unison as team 7 smirked.
"Aight, you three want to be a smartass, don't you. Let's see if you have that smug face still intact after the new training regiment me & shisui scheduled." Anko said cackled like an evil maniac as Shisui joined in grinning in anticipation.
"Oh, fuck me!"Naruto cursed.
"I might start crying." Hinata said with dull cloud hovering over her.
"Fuck you Shisui-niisan, Anko-sensei." Sasuke said whike sharing same dull clouds as Hinata.
"Aww we love you too, emo-chan." Shisui cooed as they all began to eat in sadness.
Team 7 continued with multiple C- rank missions & fee B-rank here & there for few weeks. Team 7 with Kiba & Shino were summoned by the Hokage for mission.
"Sup, Grandma Tsunade." Naruto greeted as they entered her office.
"Don't call me that brat!" Tsunade yelled at the jinchuriki as she slammed her fist on her desk, cracking it slightly.
"Maa maa Naruto behave." Kakashi said in a bored voice but anyone could sense the strictness in it.
"You brats are chunin now so behave like one." Tsunade huffed.
"I'm sorry for his behaviour, malady." Hinata apologized
"It's not your fault, hinata " Tsunade said softly smiling towards the young Hyuga.
"Lady Tsunade, what's our mission?" Shino asked.
"Oh yes thank you for reminding me shino. So... We received this mission from Suna as an act of alliance & peace treaty after their betrayal under Orochimaru's influence. So there's a missing Kunoichi named Pakura, she was went on a solo mission off to Kirigakure to act as an ambassador of Kiri & Suna's peace treaty but she never reached there. Your mission is Search & Rescue if you do not find her then convert the mission recon only don't engaged in any battle unless you're being attacked first. There is a picture of hers, piece of her short for smell sense & other mission detail. Kakashi you're the jounin captain, you leave first thing in the morning." Tsunade ordered as she slid a scroll in front of them.
"Any questions?" They all shook their heads.
They all exited the hokage tower went their ways to pack & rest.
All of the chunins & Kakashi met near the gate & took off for their mission.
After 3 days of travels they finally reached to the en route where Pakura was last said to be seen. Kiba & Akhamaru started following the scent as Shino sent out his bugs while Hinata used her byakugan to check the whole range for the suna kunoichi.
"Maa, maa little one you & kiba shino would've made a great tracker team. Even though you didn't trained as a combat tracker your range is better than one." Kakashi said as he too tried sensing the missing nin's smell.
"Yes I always thought Hinata-chan would be in the same team as me I still don't know why she got in team 7 while we got stuck with the bubblegum bitch." Kiba said pouting.
"Kiba-kun, I know you don't get along with Sakura-san but avoid using such disrespectful terms to address her atleast not in front of me. She isn't always a great person but her skills aren't something to be underestimated." Hinata said in a cold voice & with her byakugan activated to search made her hard stare 10x times scary for everything.
"I-im sorry, I shouldn't h-have said that." Kiba apologize embarrassed.
"I agree with Hinata-san, why? Because regardless her personality & skills we should respect her as a fellow comarade." Shino said agreeing as hinata smiled at him.
"Eh, I'll be respectful to her when she's respectful to others. No matter what you all say." Sasuke said with an authorative voice as Hinata sighed.
Naruto secluded his mind from everyone during the whole journey thinking about his new seal & everything about it. The dōujutsu users noticed his silence & thinking face & left him be.
"Here her scent is getting stronger this way!" Kiba said as others followed.
Shino send a hoarde of bugs towards the pointed area & it's surrounding to access the situation. Hinata activated her byakugan & checking the perimeter.
"There's around 15-16 chakra signatures 45 north 60 miles away underground, all of them are suppressed precisely which sorts them out to jounin level except one which is very low it's almost non existent I'm guessing it's Pakura-san's. There's a whole lot of traps around be careful." Hinata said.
Quickly all of them suppressed their chakra as best as they could & parted ways to surround the underground building. After noticing the genjutsu alarm barrier around the building Sasuke informed others of it. Shino used his bugs to eats the chakra of the alarm genjutsu making enough hole for them to move inside.
"There's 3 on guard at 8'o clock on the this floor & rest are scattered under with two around Pakura-san." Hinata informed them.
"Naruto, Kiba & Sasuke take care of the guards on this floor when you're done come down to help us & if you need help use my blood to summon my ninken they'll hold their own till we can come back." Kakashi ordered as he tossed a small vial of his blood.
"Hinata will move in shadows, you will heal Pakura until she's stable before engaging in any fight head on. Shino you & I will engage with them from the frontline as a distraction to give Hinata some head start." Everyone nodded in agreement as Naruto & kiba grinned.
They did as they were ordered & went their ways. Shino quickly used a few small parasitic insects on few jounins as they separated from Hinata. Kakashi took off his forehead protecter to reveal a blazing sharingan. He casually walked in front of the enemy with his book in this hand giggling to himself.
"Hey! Who are you?! How'd you get here?!" One jounin yelled as all of their attention was on the giggling man with a perverted book in his hand.
"Oh, me? I'm just strolling & reading. It's some good stuff yaknow." Kakashi laughed.
"You've got some guts coming into our base alone." One smirked as he cracked his knuckles.
"Oh..who said anything about coming alone." Kakashi asked innocently as few of them suddenly went numb & limped on the ground, their bodies shaking & foam forming in their mouth.
"You! What'd you do to them? You bastard!" One yelled charging towards him.
"Tsk tsk such a potty mouth." Kakashi said while Chidoring the guy in chest after dodging his kick.
All of them charged towards him as Shino used his insects to defeat the others. Hinata rushed towards a caged cell to see a women barely covered in tattered, ripped clothes while all being all bloody, bruised & battered. Her glowing healthy dark green hair full of life now were just dull brittle green hair with light orange ends covered her face with all the sweat & blood dripping from it.
Hinata's heart clenched at the sight as she felt tears prickling her eyes seeing after seeing the kunoichi's condition. She sweated pain to the people who did this, just as she was about to break the cell door 3 ninjas surrounded her. She turned towards them with eyes filled with utter hate & disgust.
"Fucking scums." Hinata cursed at the shinobis in front of her.
One man with dark hair charged towards her as she sidestepped, punched his faced, elbow his sides & kick his torso releasing chakra on impact sealing his tenketsu points. Another two
came towards her as one threw barrage of weapons her direction while the other did multiple handsigns. Hinata performed a quick small kaiten to deflect all the weapons as she sent off a burst of Lightening vaccum palm to hit him off.
She turned to see an mud dragon coming her way, she barely dodged it & threw multiple crystal blades incorporated with lightening impaling his chest. She felt bad for killing them but after seeing the sand kunoichi's condition again all her guilt waved off. She was met with a barely conscious woman who was eyeing her warily & flinched as she approached her. Hinata gave a smile of comfort which radiated warmth & kindness before trying to approach her again.
"Don't worry, we're here to help you. I will not hurt you in anyway no one will, please let me heal you." Hinata said softly smiling.
Pakura hesitated before nodding slowly letting herself believe someone once again.
Hinata smiled brightly as she kneeled in front of her, removed her chains & chakra cuffs. She infused her chakra as her hand glowed purple, Pakura stared at her glowing hands intrigues by their colour. The said kunoichi could feel her chakra replenishing & her cuts & bruises sewing themselves up. Hinata coated a layer of chakra around the injured ninja hoping to calm her nerves as held her while healing.
Pakura could feel the small girls chakra around her, it radiated warmth & sense of comfort & security. Her body despite being injured felt relieved & peaceful as the small girl healed her. For someone so young she was surprised by her skills in medical Ninjutsu & fighting, her chakra gave a calm feeling it was gentle but yet composed a rare strength it was drugging her.
"I'm Hinata, what's your name?" Hinata asked despite knowing hers.
"P-pakura.." the ninja said stuttering as she hadn't used her voice in few days.
"It's a great name." Hinata smiled warmly at her, coating more chakra around her.
"I've healed you so you're in no immediate danger I'll heal you completely after I help my team-mates with the scums who did this to you." Hinata said as Pakura nodded slowly.
Hinata removed a jacket from a scroll & covered her while giving her a bottle of water & her home-made ration bars to her. She gently moved her hair off her face & eyes before wiping the blood & sweat off. She smiled one last time at her before taking off.
Meanwhile Sasuke, Kiba & Naruto were quickly done with the guards & made their way inside to help their sensei. They quickly engaged in battle with the others & Hinata joined soon after. They fought all of them off & piled their dead or almost dead bodies before Naruto sealed them as Sasuke & Kiba destroyed the evidence of their existence & fight from the building.
Hinata made a clone to heal her teammates as she left to heal Pakura. She saw the beautiful lady with an empty water bottle in one hand & half eaten ration bar which she was nibbling slowly. Pakura noticed someone coming & pushed herself away from the person before she saw it was Hinata. Hinata quickly raised her hands in submissive manner while smiling softly.
"Don't worry it's just me, we defeated all of them so I came to heal you completely. I won't hurt you I promise." Pakura hesitantly nodded.
Hinata went back to heal her, she held her tightly in her small arms & covered her in her chakra to calm her which was working.
"See you're all healed & good to go." Hinata smiled brightly.
"Do you want to meet my teammates? They won't hurt you, I won't let anyone hurt you." Hinata asked as Pakura nodded while giving her a small smile.
Hinata beamed in happiness as she saw her smile & helped her walk out of the caged cell. They saw Kakashi reading his book while others were busy in their own conversation or doing something. Kakashi noticed Hinata's small frame help the sand kunoichi before getting up to help her. He approached in a calm way like Hinata did & smiled under his mask.
"Do you need help, little one?" Hinata nodded.
"Is it okay if I carry you?" Kakashi asked in a gentle soft voice which Hinata didn't knew her sensei had.
Kakashi's pov (bec why not)
I saw Hinata making her in our direction with the sand kunoichi who had dried blood all over her while being bruised swollen her face was covered with her hair as her head hung lowly indicating she was exhausted. A dark feeling overtook my heart as I saw her condition & regretted that I killed those scums too mercifully, I should've made their deaths as painful as possible.
I closed my book & got up to help them, as I approached her I saw her starting to back away in fear. I raised my hands up indicating I mean no harm to her.
"Do you need help, little one?" Hinata nodded.
I looked over to the sand kunoichi to ask her if I could carry her, she raised her hard to look at me as I saw the most beautiful ginger bronze eyes I've ever seen, it was filled with multiple emotions- kindness, relief, freedom, sorrow, anger, anguish. I was taken aback by how beautiful she was even when she was all covered in purple spots & blood. Her hair was a dull brittle green colour but I knew that any other day it would've been lucious healthy glowing dark green colour with sunset orange tips.
It hurt my heart seeing a woman as beautiful as her with so much kindness in her eyes was hurted to this extent. He heart felt clawing himself in sadness, she was probably the most beautiful woman he's ever seen & he has seen his fair share of fan girls throwing themselves at him & his erotic literature but they couldn't compare a dime to her.
"Is it okay if I carry you?" I asked in soft calm voice hoping she'd say yes.
"Yes... If it's not a bother." She muttered quietly but in a beautiful voice, her voice was angelic like her face.
"It's no bother." I quickly answered before she changed her mind.
She stared at me intensely blinking her gorgeous eyes which I could get lost in. I felt my cheeks getting warm & was suddenly grateful for the mask I always have. I noticed Hinata's small jacket covering her slipping off so I removed my extra navy blue shirt & pant from a scroll & passed it to her.
Her hand brushed over mine to take it, I turned around to give her privacy to change as I felt my ears getting hot too. I could hear that Hinata was helping her change.
"Kaka-sensei we're done you can turn around." I heard my favourite student saying as she packed her jacket away.
"Look at you being so gentlman-ly, kaka-sensei." Hinata smirked at me.
Change of plan, Naruto & Sasuke are my favourite students now.
"Have I told you, you're no longer my favourite student?" I asked smiling evily towards the female Hyuga.
Her face scrunched up in hurt & sadness as she frowned, her tears starting to form.
"Kakabaka-sensei you're such a meanie!" Hinata yelled which pushing her lower lip forward in a pout. I turned away from her.
"No you'll not give me the look." I said shaking my head tried to face away from the little girl trying to get her face on my field of vision. She relentlessly did it till I gave up.
"Kidding, you'll always be my favourite." I said laughing at her ruffling her indigo hair.
She threw herself at me wrapping her arms around me surprising me. She turned her head towards Naruto & Sasuke who saw the whole exchange & stuck her tongue out at them.
"I better be." Hinata sternly threatened in a soft which is very weird bit still works.
I heard soft giggling sounds, which I probably could hear all the time & turned to see Pakura in my clothes which suited her so well, I almost felt a nosebleed coming in. She had her hand over her mouth softly giggling.
"Wow, Pakura-san your laugh is really beautiful. You should laugh more." Hinata said everything which was on mind while smiling brightly with her big doe eye's. This kind of looks melts me into goo, ahh my genins are so cute she's like my little niece or daughter maybe. She makes me want to protect her from all the bad things in the world; To treasure her innocence, kindness, morales, happiness from this cruel world.
They all came in being a light in my dark life, I know their pain, sufferings, their trauma. It hurts me to know they've been through so much but I feel happy they can still smile or atleast feel a sense of peace. I want them to have a life better than mine, I don't want them to take my path & fall into darkness but forge their own path with my guidance & support. Which is why I'll always protect them even if it's the last thing I do.
"Thank you, Hinata-san." Pakura smiled softly giving a gorgeous smile & unknowingly breaking me out of my trance.
"San makes me sound like a snob, please call be hinata or Hinata-chan."
"Okay hinata-chan." Hinata smiled brightly again.
"Oh lemme introduce you to everyone, this is my jounin sensei & jounin captain of the mission, Hatake Kakashi." Hinata said gesturing in my direction.
"Kakashi of the sharingan?" Pakura asked with a soft smile as I nodded.
This might be the only time I'll feel proud that my name is renowned for my skills. I felt all giddy & warm inside after knowing she's heard of me.
"Oh I've heard a lot about you, it's an honor to meet you." I smiled back nodding not trusting my voice to say anything.
"& this is other to members of team 7 Uzumaki Naruto & Uchiha Sasuke." The boys made their way in our direction with Naruto grinning widely & Sasuke with his usual stoic self. Naruto being Naruto boisterously introduced himself as the future hokage while Sasuke just gave a nod of acknowledgment.
"The two there are Aburame Shino & Inuzuka Kiba & his ninken Akhamaru." The two boys came in introducing themselves which I zoned out as I looked at the green haired beauty from the corner of my eye.
"Thank you for saving me, I owe you & Konoha a lot." Pakura said smiling that gorgeous smile again.
I think I might faint. Oh now I get why little one use to faint so much. Makes sense.
"No worries you're from the same village as Gaara so no worries." Naruto yelled excitedly.
"Your a friend of Gaara?" Pakura asked surprised then Naruto started explaining all that happened between gaara & him & their friendship. Sasuke smacked Naruto's head as the blond cursed.
"What Sasuke-teme?" Naruto yelled.
"She's exhausted & injured tell her your stories lates." Sasuke yelled back.
"Sorry Pakura-san, he's an idiot." Sasuke said turning towards Pakura as she chuckled.
I turned towards her, asking for permission to carry her as she nodded. We made our way out of the building as I held her tightly in my arms. Hinata with dark cold eyes asked Sasuke to burn the building from his katon & Naruto to help with his wind. I knew why she had hatred, disgust & coldness in her eyes as she said that.
I inhale Pakura's sweet faint scent of jasmine & honey to calm my nerves that she's safe now. We started our journey back to home with mission being successful.
•••
If y'all forgot Pakura is an actual character not an OC though she was shown in only 2 or less episodes I think but like Hinata & Shisui I fell in love with her character the first time I saw her. She's was really pretty & strong but in the anime Pakura was sent on a mission to stop Iwagakure's plans during their feud with Suna. She successfully accomplished the mission and was hailed as a hero by the village. Some time later, Pakura was sent on another mission to Kirigakure, to act as an envoy, but she was betrayed by her village and killed by the ambush they set. After her death, Rasa (4th Kazekage) and the seniors pinned the blame on Iwagakure for her death.
"Thank you once again for rescuing me." Pakura smiled a dazzling smile.
"It's okay, don't fret over it." Sasuke muttered cooly.
Team 7 was in Pakura's hospital room after she was admitted there. Soon the angry Hokage entered the room huffing which made her breasts bounce, sending the male nurse in the room to inspect his nose bleed.
"Yuck" Naruto thought outloud as he saw the male nurse furiously bleeding from nose while blushing beet red after seeing the busty blonde hokage.
"Shut up brat." Tsunade hollowered.
"So Pakura-san, are you okay? How are your injuries?" The busty blonde asked.
"They're way better now, Hinata-chan healed most of them beforehand." Pakura explained.
"So what happened? Can you give an official statement now?" Tsunade asked.
Naruto quickly went to work to create seals to collect her statement & keep the confidentiality of it's contents intact.
"I was send on a mission to Kirigakure to act as a recon envoy to settle the peace treaty between Kiri & Suna after I settle the feud between Suna & Iwa. But before I could reach there, I was ambushed by rogues appointed by Suna to take me out & blame Kiri- Iwa for my death. I was kept alive just because they needed a whole 'went missing then was found dead' act but before the Kazekage could order me to be killed Orochimaru as you know-happened which is why they didn't received any immediate orders of my death." Pakura explained as Kakashi balled his fists tightly his knuckles turned white.
Hinata noticed Kakashi's distressed form & held his jounin flak jacket in her small fist tightly to ease him up. Kakashi turned & saw Hinata while giving her an eye smile indicating that he was okay. Hinata smiled back brightly.
"I see, but as you know now after Rasa-teme's death, his youngest son Gaara is soon to be named as Kazekage after he has received his Kage training. I've asked around Suna & I know for a fact that no one except Kazekage & elders were involved in the betrayal. As you know the Kage is dead & so are elders killed by Orochimaru." Tsunade informed Pakura.
"Did she just called a Kage teme?" Naruto asked with sparkles in his eyes.
"She did, dobe." Sasuke answered with equal sparkles in his eyes.
"Behave both of you." Kakashi said in bored-strict tone only he could pull off.
"Tch." Duckbutt cursed.
"So I will inform your Village of your condition & everythi-" Tsunade started but was cut off by Pakura.
"I'm sorry to interrupt you Tsunade-sama but I no longer wish to be a ninja who's affiliated with Sand in any way. I want to leave my village. I cannot go back where my own people & leader betrayed me & stabbed me in the back." Pakura announced.
"But Pakura-san you would be considered a missing nin - a rogue even. I understand that you don't want to do anything with Sand but please make sure you think this through." Tsunade said in a soft voice.
"Actually I think there's another way, she's a full fledged shinobi with a clean slate with her village which makes it eligible for her to resign as a sand ninja & any affiliation to ninjas of sand. That way she'll be able to get out of sand without having to be named as missing nin or rogue." Hinata explained.
"Yes! She could also reinstate as a leaf ninja, Of course we would need another jounin to supervise over her till she gets cleared by T that she's innocent & Kakashi Sensei & Team 7 can also vouch for her fidelity as a leaf ninja along with kiba & Shino." Naruto surprisingly explained.
"I'm surprised you even knew what Hina was talking about." Sasuke smirked smugly.
"Teme of course I know what hinata-chan was talking about." Naruto yelled as others laughed.
Hinata said shaking her head in disapproval at both boys who quickly shut up.
"They're both right, I am willing to vouch for Pakura-san, I think I can convince Zabuza or Shisui for supervision duty. Anko would be happy to help too i guess." Kakashi said ignoring the previous argument.
"Oh no please don't introduce her to Zabuza & Anko, they'll turn her into a sadistic creep like what they did to Shisui." Sasuke says shuddering.
"It true please don't." Naruto agreed shuddering equally.
"Such brats, tch." Tsunade scowled turning towards the green headed beauty.
"I'll see what I can do, don't worry though it'll be alright. You will be ready to discharged after few tests." Tsunade said smiling as she left her room.
"Did you guys notice that?" Sasuke asked smirking evily as they exited the hospital.
"Notice Kaka-sensei practically simping for Pakura-san? Yes." Naruto smirked back in return.
Hinata turned towards her teammates narrowing her eyes at them.
"Why do I feel like somehow I'm going to be involved in this?" Hinata asked skeptically to the two smirking figures.
"Because Hina you will be involved in it." They both grinned.
"Oh, no.." Hinata sighed as she was dragged by two boys.
•••
After a few days, when Pakura was cleared from the T , she was suppose to stay with another jounin officer for supervision period which team 7 managed to convince the hokage to let Kakashi do it.
Whenever they weren't getting their ass handed by their sensei's & other jounins for training, they'd spy on Kakashi & Pakura along with Shisui & Anko, as Sasuke like to say keeping tabs on his only cousin/family left.
The other genin rookies after seeing their comrades getting promoted to higher rank ignited a fire in them to push forward.
To fuel their motivation more, the jounin Sensei's decided to give joined training another go. Which was surpringly successful this time.
Team 7 gathered at their usual meeting spot for training as they had no mission today. Kakashi came in an hour later than the designated time along with Pakura to see all of his cute little genins huddled together with notes, scrolls, old books & stuff.
"Maa, maa, what are you all doing?" Kakashi asked as he appeared in swirl of leaves behind them which didn't surprised them anymore.
"We are doing this thing..." Sasuke trailed off with his head in the book sharingan activated as he turned pages like a madman observing all the information.
Kakashi tried to patiently wait for them to get done with whatever they were doing & tell him but alas he snapped startling them.
"Sensei, you know how Oro-pedo has a weird obsession with Sasuke-teme & Hinata-chan's eyes?" Kakashi nodded.
"So Naruto-kun thought of an idea to seal both of our eyes, not like caged Bird seal of Hyuga which others can control but something like which only the dōujutsu user itself can control - like they could remove their seal whenever they wanted. So it won't land in hands of someone like Orochimaru. It won't be on forehead but on temple with an invisible seal over it." Hinata explained as Pakura blinked in surprise.
"You know Fuinjutsu, Naruto-kun?" Pakura asked.
"Ah yes, I don't know much though because I just learn from books & scrolls Tou-san & Kaa-san left me. Pervy sage tires to help me as much as he can with seals but I do the rest on my own" Naruto answered suddenly feeling inferior about his skills compared to others, he half-expected Pakura to degrade his skills & tell him how he'll never amount to anything.
The sadness in the blond boy's heart clenched her heart, she softly smile at him, kneeling next to him & booping his nose.
"You have great skills, never let someone make you feel inferior about yourself. You're Naruto Uzumaki the future hokage & sealing master of Konoha show them that you can pack a lot more than a punch." Pakura said ruffling his hair.
Naruto looked at the woman in front of him in shock before smiling & hugging her tightly as Kakashi scowled & dragged him away from his favourite former sand nin.
"So you two are doing the same or something else?" Kakashi asked the dōujutsu users.
"Even if Naruto-dobe gets his way around the seal like that he won't be able to learn the ocular system of a dōujutsu user as precisely as us. Hinata can see through all the nerves ending & internal gratification of chakra pathways which will make sure there'll be no after damage to the eye or excessive straining while I'm trying to memorize the pathways & optic nerve fibers which are more than a million of them, this is to make sure the retina or cornea doesn't reject the seal & it's commands send by the brain due to malfunction." Sasuke explained still turning pages like a madman.
"The seal which I created removes the cage bird seal which will help us ensure that the dōujutsu are protected all the while without having to bear the consequences of the seal. Which will prevent slavery & dividation bec if it doesn't God help me I'll whoop their ass into their eyes." Naruto said angrily scribbling in the scroll.
"Maa, Naruto-kun don't be angry I'm sure it'll all work out." Pakura showed her optimism through a bright smile.
"Sensei remove your forehead protecter." Hinata ordered the silver haired man.
"Why?"
"Just do it old man you ask a lot of questions." Sasuke commented.
"O..old? Me? Old man? H-how?" Kakashi cried in Pakura's arms as she removed his forehead protector. The genins smirked to themselves after seeing their closeness & continued to act oblivious.
Hinata activated her byakugan & examined Kakashi's sharingan while scribbling notes.
"I got what I needed, Let's go." Hinata said & signalled Naruto who transported them into a surgery room with a juvenile, slower & a non dramatic version of his father's flying thunder god.
Kakashi looked shocked at the blonde boy with whiskers who gave him a bored look.
"How'd you learn?" Kakashi finally managed to asked.
"I read father's scroll stored in the Hyuga clan vaults kept for safe keeping by the Hokage" Naruto said shrugging.
"& Hiashi gave you the scroll...?" Kakashi asked skeptically.
"Yes bakashi-sensei he did, he also gave me a few Uchiha scrolls." Sasuke muttered laying down on cold metal stretcher laid for surgical purpose.
"That's nice of him, who's Hiashi by the way?" Pakura asked.
"My father, Hyuga no Kimi." Hinata answered.
"Oh okay."
"So what did you want with him" Kakashi asked as he shoved Sasuke off the surgical table & proceeded to lay down on it himself ignoring the glaring Uchiha behind him.
"I'm going to try something, I'm not sure about it." Hinata said as she took a scalpel in her hand.
"Is this how Guinea pigs & lab rats feel?" Kakashi asked as he tried not to panic.
"Sensei, I love you but please shit the fuck & lemme do my work." Hinata said angrily.
Naruto & Sasuke gasped dramatically behind her.
"She cursed." Naruto whispered.
"I'll pray for your soul Kaka-sensei." Sasuke said joining his hands & pretending to pray.
"O-ookayy." Kakashi croaked out through tears of betrayal.
"You need to stop the waterworks I think Kaka-kun." Pakura whispered lightly which instantly changed the said man's demeanor.
Hinata wore gloves steralise the tools & everything as Sasuke knocked the silver haired man out, she slitted a centimetre long gash on the silver man's left eyelid & crystallized a thin needle poking & prodding through it as the needle glowed dark Violet due to chakra infusation. She used her glowing fingers & poked a few pressure points which slightly bruised & healed the gash she created wrapping the man's eyes.
After a few hours Kakashi woke up & realised he has bandaged over his eyes. He removed them trying to adjust with the lighting of the room.
"What happened?" His husky voiced coarsed out which in Pakura's mind was very sexy but she dismissed the foul thought quickly.
Pakura picked a mirror stand & held it for Kakashi. Kakashi's eyes widened when he saw his left eye in dark grey-ish color instead of a spinning blazing red crimson sharingan.
"W-w..h-how is this possible?" Kakashi finally managed to voice his thoughts.
"Well, due to your sharingan always activated, it strained you & your chakra on rapid pace. So i studied your nerve ending & realised that even you like other dōujutsu users should be able to use the sharingan at will. While I was doing that I stumble upon the fact that your eyes are much more evolved than Sasuke, which was straining your optic vision & slowly blinding you. You can use your evolved version of sharingan which is mangekyou sharingan I read in the Uchiha scrolls Shisui-niisan gave me, without going blind at a rapid pace. Still straining too much which result in temporary blindness, your eye is still weak due to the fact it's like a muscle memory for it to supply your left eye chakra that's why I closed off the
pressure points to ensure it wouldn't happened. In a week or so you'll be good to use your eye as you like that's your business." Hinata explained while smiling brightly.
Kakashi walked over to Hinata kneeled down pulled her closer & hugged her tightly.
"Thank youu, for this." Kakashi mumbled gratefully in her hair.
"Well they helped me too." Hinata said smiling brightly with a pink hue on her cheeks.
Kakashi pulled away & looked over at Naruto & Sasuke & signalled them to join their hug which Naruto was happy to oblige with while dragging a grim Sasuke with him. They hugged each other's while smiling & even Sasuke had a smirk turned into smile look on his face.
Kakashi faced Pakura as she watched the whole thing take place with a small smile on her face. He smiled at her & mouthed a thank you to her while his mask was still on.
"Sensei, does this mean you'll show us your face now?" Naruto asked with hopeful eyes as did Sasuke turning towards the silver haired man in hope & anticipation.
"No." Kakashi deadpanned.
Naruto & Sasuke both fell comically while the blondie cried anime tears.
After few more minutes Naruto dragged his teammates with him claiming that he could eat the whole planet by how hungry he was.
"They're good kids, they're strong much stronger than us when we were at that age." Pakura said softly.
"I know that is what frightens me, our strength comes at a cost which not everyone can pay, hell it leaves behind only broken people deprived of happiness, peace or any sort of solemn content in life." Kakashi said as his eyes were shadowed by his wild hair.
Pakura turned to face the man & walked up to him, slowly touching his cheek shocking both her & him by the action.
"You're afraid, afraid that they'll lose their innocence, their kindness, their humanity when they realised the true horror of the shinobi world & what it does to people with strength, people like us who are just used as a tool for our strength. You're afraid they'll become the monsters we are." Pakura voiced Kakashi's thoughts.
"I just can't lose them too, I cannot see them turn into the monsters we are. You're right I am afraid I just want don't want to feel the darkness we fell into. They're precious to me I want to protect them from the horror of this world, they don't deserve it no one does but they've already been through so much." Kakashi said as he felt himself getting lost in her golden ginger eyes.
"It's okay i understand, they've grown in on me too. They made me realise there's much more to the world then I thought, they're strong but they need your support & guidance they need you. I know they're precious to you, they are to me too which is why I'll protect them too from the horrors of this cursed world we faced alone." Pakura answered as she used her other hand to brush away Kakashi long hair falling in his eyes.
Kakashi looked up to see Pakura staring at him with an unknown emotion in her eyes, the unknown emotion brought thrill to him. He slowly without realising leaned up & she did the same. When they were mere inches apart Kakashi slipped his hand over Pakura's cheek as he pulled his mask till his chin to reveal a plump of pink lips.
Pakura closed her eyes leaned in as she felt his soft lips against her own, her hands wrapped around his neck & in his wild mane of gravity defying hair. Kakashi snaked a hand around her waist & pulled her closer till there was nothing left. They both pulled away breathing & panting heavily, as they shared a bliss, heavenly moment with each other. Pakura's cheeks resembled Hinata's as Kakashi himself had a dusted cheeks & nose.
Kakashi interlaced their fingers & stared at her.
"I'm glad I met you." Kakashi smiled a dazzling smile which made Pakura's knees go weak. She knew Kakashi was an attractive man even with his face covered but seeing his face without his mask was mesmerizing to say the least she could just watch his face for hours & never get bored.
He was attractive by every standard, his chiselled jawline, with plump shaped lips & a sharp proud nose. His cheekbones were sculpted to perfection. Even his scar on left eye & his small birth mark under his lips just amplified his beauty. She was now suddenly thankful that he wore a mask all the time, knowing if people were to know what he looked like there'd be another war in her opinion.
"Still shocked." He gave her a handsome smirk which stirred butterflies in her stomach.
"You're Beautiful." Pakura breathed out.
"I prefer a term a bit more masculine like handsome or dashing even but beautiful works too." Kakashi said as he chuckled bringing her out of her trance.
"You're the most beautiful thing I've ever laid my eyes on so I don't think I will get a fair competition. The moment I save you the first time I wanted to know you, talk to you, protect you. I really wanted to hurt those bastards who hurt you. When I saw you smile the first time I felt warm, content happy for once." Kakashi muttered as he leaned he got up from the bed he was sitting on & pulled Pakura under him.
They stared for what felt like hours when Pakura finally pulled his face closer & their lips touched. They were both consumed by the bliss they shared & it was hypnotizing. Unlike their last kiss which was slow, gentle, hesitant, etc this one was completely opposite they shared this was a rough, fierce, full of passion kiss. They were both needy both desperate to feel the each other, to touch each other, to kiss each other.
