Hello guys!
I hope you enjoy this chapter and remember:
I DO NOT OWN DBZ NOR NARUTO.
"Where are we going?" Gohan asked, with visible confusion in his face.
"Wait, we're almost there." Naruto replied.
Naruto had told Gohan they had to go somewhere, so he'd been following him for at least an hour in the village, which made Gohan confused, he really thought Naruto was lost. Gohan wasn't sure why he was still following Naruto, but when he was about to tell him that they should head back, he saw someone who greeted Naruto.
"Naruto!" A little kid was greeting him by waving his hand at them.
"Konohamaru!" Naruto greeted back.
Konohamaru noticed Gohan quickly, and he started to behave a little bit awkwardly.
"Umm, Naruto." Konohamaru said.
"What?" Naruto replied.
"Who is he?" Konohamaru asked, apparently already knowing the answer.
"This is Gohan, he was the guy who fell from the sky." Naruto said, smiling afterwards.
"How are you alive?" Konohamaru asked, turning towards Gohan and raising an eyebrow.
"Umm, I don't know?" Gohan answered, shrugging his shoulders.
Konohamaru started to think that Gohan had to be really strong to survive to something like that, maybe even as strong as his grandfather.
"Anyway." Naruto intervened. "Gohan, this is Konohamaru, one of my first friends in the village."
"And the future Hokage!" Konohamaru added, giving a big smile to Gohan.
"He also is similar to my father and his friends" Gohan thought, smiling nostalgically. "Yeah, I'm sure you'll both be great Hokages one day."
Both Naruto and Konohamaru started smiling, filled with pride.
After Gohan meet Konohamaru, they started to hang out in different places in the village, such as Ichiraku, place where they had left for the end.
Gohan felt happy, he had made a new friend after all, but something didn't feel right. Meeting so many people who were similar to his father or his friends made it harder for him to go over the fact that he wouldn't be able to even talk or see his loved ones again. That made Gohan feel sad during nights. He thought about what had been of the earth without him, without Goku or Vegeta. But he tried not to think about it that much, he wanted to be positive and adapt to his new life.
Finally, the group of three friends were on their way to Ichiraku, when they met Sasuke on their way. Naruto tried to greet him, but he saw he was confronting some ninja of other village.
"What village are you from?" Sasuke asked.
"Sunagakure, the village hidden by sand." A boy, who was dressed in a black robe, answered. "And we're here for the chuunin exams."
"Really? You don't seem so strong." Sasuke said, making fun of Kankuro.
"And who's the guy in the tree?" Gohan asked, pointing at a tree.
Sasuke, Naruto, Konohamaru and Kankuro turned at the tree, noticing that a reheaded boy was staring from one of the branches.
"Impressive." The boy said, coming down from the tree, and turning towards Gohan. "What's your name?"
"Gohan." The hybrid answered.
"What's yours?" The uchiha asked.
"I'm Gaara if the desert." Gaara said with a creepy smile in his face. "Let's go."
Kankuro turned to follow Gaara without hesitation, leaving the place. And before Gohan or Naruto could add anything else, Sasuke left the place, too. After that, the boys finally arrived at Ichiraku, satisfying their hunger.
Finally, a week had already passed and the Chuunin exams were finally starting. Some Genin felt really nervous, and some other felt prepared. Gohan and his teammates felt ready for everything, they had been through a harsh training directed by a saiyan, although they didn't know Gohan was half alien.
Team 10 had arrived to the meeting place. Where they met the rest of Konoha's rookie 9. As they spoke about their respective trainings, the rookie Genin noticed how they were being watched by almost everyone in the room, which made them uncomfortable. The participants were told to go to some specific classes to start doing the first part of the exams.
It took some time for someone to arrive at the room, but the proctors of the exam finally arrived. One of them was Ibiki, the commander of Konoha's torture and interrogation force, he sure looked creepy.
"I'll be the one in charge of you today." He explained. "The first part consists in a theorical exam." He continued. "Don't even try to copy anyone else's exam, as there are 2 ninja assigned to watch each row. If they discover that you copied 3 times, you're out."
Some of the participants were confident in themselves, just like Sakura, and others felt really scared as they were terrible on theorical exams, just like Naruto.
Some of the ninjas in the room started to hang out the exams while Ibiki was still explaining some rules of the exam. After that, it started.
As Sakura answered every questions without that much effort, Naruto was desperate for copying someone. In the other hand, some started to notice that this exam was about copying, one of them was Ino, who was sitting next to Gohan. As she saw the questions she noticed that Gohan seemed to know some of the questions, so she used the mind body switch technique in him.
As Gohan felt Ino entering his mind, he asked her what was going on. She explained to Gohan that the exam was about copying as they weren't supposed to know the answers, embarrassing Gohan as he already had answered them all. Then, Gohan let Ino continue her technique so she could copy Gohan's answers. She then used the same technique with Shikamaru and Chouji, so she could copy the answers in the exam.
As the time passed, Naruto got more and more anxious. He didn't know what to do, should he take the risk of copying. As Naruto kept thinking of what to do, the time ran out, and Ibiki stranded up to, apparently, explain something else.
"For this test, there's one more question, if you answer correctly you'll pass regardless of your results in the test you just did." Ibiki said. "But on the other hand, if you answer this question incorrectly then you'll fail the exam and will never be able to do the exam again."
Everyone felt astonished at Ibiki's comment, some gasped and other simply made surprised faces.
"If you want to, you can give up and try it next year." Ibiki clarified. "You have to take on count that if you surrender, your whole team gets disqualified too."
As he said that, most of the ninjas in the room started to give up, some apologised to their teammates and some others simply left the room after giving up.
"Anyone else?" Ibiki finally answered.
Naruto doubted for a moment, but finally managed to convince himself to do it as he couldn't let his teammates and friends down. After some other ninjas gave up, Ibiki finally continued explaining.
"You've all passed the first part of the exam, congratulations!" Ibiki said, happily.
Everyone was confused at what Ibiki had just said. Some ninjas asked for explanations, but they weren't satisfied by Ibiki's answer. They eventually stopped asking as they didn't care anymore, what mattered was that they had passed the exam.
After exiting the classroom and following Ibiki and some other ninjas to the gates of some forest, the participants saw how their proctor talked to a purple-haired ninja.
"Hey, kids, I'm Anko and I'll be in charge of the second part of the exams." The ninja explained. "This part is also known as the forest of death."
Some ninjas started to feel a little bit scared or nervous, but others weren't really surprised, just like Sasuke.
"This phase will be performed in your respective teams." Anko explained. "Your main objective is to fight against the other teams to get 2 scrolls, one is the earth scroll and the other one is the heaven scroll. When you get these, you will head to the tower at the other side of the forest and you'll have passed this phase."
As Anko finished explaining, the participants were told to gather in their teams. Then, they were told to enter the forest so the exam could start. And so it began.
As the time passed, some of the teams were already getting the 2 scrolls by beating the weakest teams. One of those was Gaara's team, as they were the fastest team to do it, breaking the previous record. After some more hours, team 10 and team 8 got their scrolls, too, starting to go towards the tower.
Team 7 was one of the last teams left with just 1 scroll, and as they went on, searching for anyone who had a heaven scroll, a young looking girl appeared in their way. They were surprised by the sudden appearance of that girl. Suddenly, they were attacked by her. Sakura was knocked out first, leaving just Naruto and Sasuke to fight against her. As they were standing in front of her, she started to look at Sasuke in a very explicit way, taking her really long tongue out and licking her lips. The uchiha freaked out after watching this, the girl took advantage of Sasuke's reaction and started attacking. Naruto intervened, blocking some of her attacks and taking some others.
Sasuke was completely still from the shock of her speed, he hadn't noticed when she had knocked Naruto off, but he just felt her hit in his stomach and then being thrown to the floor. Naruto went back to keep fighting, using his clones. The woman noticed this, turning back at the clones and destroying them, then turning back and hitting Naruto in the face.
The girl then headed towards Sasuke, who had regained some senses after being hit so hard. Sasuke was ready to receive her with his Great Fireball Technique, which hit the woman completely, causing some fog to spread. After the fog had cleared, he could see how her face appeared to be some kind of mask, as it had been hiding his real face, one with facial features similar to the ones of a snake. The thing similar to a snake licked his lips before summoning a giant snake to continue attacking the uchiha, but Sasuke couldn't feel the hit.
As he turned to look at where the thing has to be, he could see Naruto holding the snake, all by himself.
As Naruto looked up at Sasuke he said: "Are you hurt, scaredy-cat?" Revealing he had know red eyes, similar to those of a fox.
Sasuke was astonished at Naruto's feat. How could he do something like that? The uchiha avenger was trying to think about other explanations that weren't that Naruto had become more powerful than him.
As Sasuke was distracted by his thoughts, the snake disappeared, showing the Thing coming right at Naruto.
"I'll seal the chakra of the fox." It said, sealing the red chakra that came out of Naruto.
After he lost his red chakra, Naruto fell unconscious to the floor, which made Sasuke tremble. He attacked the thing as fast as he could, combining some physical attacks with his great fireball jutsu, but he got knocked out easily by the thing. As he was in the floor, the thing took him by on of his arms and bit his neck, leaving a mark. As Sasuke fell unconscious the thing left him in the floor.
"You'll soon be mine, Sasuke." Licking it's lips after this, and escaping the scene.
Gohan felt Sakura's energy go down, so he'd gone to save her or help her with whatever she needed. While he was taking care of her, he noticed how Naruto and Sasuke were apparently fighting an energy that was simply way stronger than theirs, but he couldn't leave Sakura so he waited for a bit. After he felt Naruto's energy going down drastically, he tried to wake Sakura up, who did as Gohan wanted and asked what had happened, Gohan answered that he didn't know and they headed towards her teammates.
When they had arrived, Naruto and Sasuke were already defeated, and Sasuke had some weird mark in his neck. Gohan gave them some of his energy and told her to take care of them for a bit while they recovered, leaving to go back to the tower, as they were the first team of the rookies to have finished, all thanks to Gohan, obviously.
Eventually, Sasuke and Naruto woke up, but they were very weak to fight anyone. Sakura could just pray for anyone to attack them. As she talked a bit with Naruto about what had happened, some guy, apparently from another village, appeared.
"Where's Sasuke?" He asked.
"Why do you want to know?" Sakura asked, starting to tremble.
"Oh, you're scared." He said, laughing sinisterly afterwards. "I know that Sasuke's behind you."
After Sakura heard that, she opted for going to attack him directly. She tried to catch him off guard, but he avoided the attack and grabbed her by her hair. Sakura was afraid, afraid of dying, afraid of letting her teammates die, of letting Sasuke die. She then noticed how her teammates had improved a lot and she was still as weak as the beginning. She felt useless, powerless to do anything about this guy. She couldn't fall behind, she had to fight, se had to defend his team at all costs.
Sakura quickly took a kunai and cut his hair to free herself of the ninja. Then, she quickly kicked his face, and punched his stomach. She then stayed on her fighting position in front of him.
"I see you're not as weak as you seem." He said, wiping the blood from his lips. "But I'll still beat you."
"SAKURA!" Naruto yelled as he saw the guy jump into her, apparently going to kick her back in the face.
"Hmph." Sasuke said after watching how Rock Lee blocked his kick with his leg, saving Sakura.
"I won't let you die, Sakura!" Rock Lee said, feeling like a hero.
"Thanks?" Sakura said, cringing a bit at Rock Lee's entrance.
"You can kiss me later, Sakura, I'll first take care of this guy." Lee said as Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura cringed at his comment.
Lee quickly kicked the ninja's face, then kicked his stomach and grabbed him by the leg to throw him up to the sky. Then, he jumped towards him and as he reached the ninja, he throwed him back to the floor. As the guy fell, Rock Lee fell from the skies and landed on the guy, getting him unconscious almost instantly.
Team 7 was shocked at Lee's abilities, they had never seen someone that fast, except for Naruto, who had witnessed Gohan'a speed.
"That's it." Lee said, smiling while he gave a thumbs up.
Sakura And Naruto thanked, but Sasuke simply ignored his existance. Then they said their goodbyes and continued their exam.
Time was almost over and team 7 still hadn't found the heaven scroll, making Naruto desperate. Naruto went into the forest alone, wanting to find the scroll as fast as possible. For his teammates' surprise he was thrown back to his teammates by Kabuto, a ninja who wanted to help them. He told them that close to them was a weak team who had the scroll. Heading towards them to take their scroll.
After finding them and easily defeating them, Kabuto then helped them in the way to the tower. They had to fight some ninjas just before arriving, but they managed to arrive safe and sound.
After saying goodbye to Kabuto, they entered the building. As they entered and saw no one, they asked themselves what they had to do. Naruto suggested opening the scrolls, and so they did, summoning Iruka right in front of them.
Iruka told them how proud he was of them. Then, he gave them the instructions he had to have them in the first place and disappeared. And so team 7 went on to the next meeting place, meeting the rest of the teams.
