Six Eyes of the Snake

A.N. Genokiller is back with another chapter of Six Eyes of the Snake. Sorry for the really late update but my schedule has been crazy and I had to do a lot of studying since I was failing a couple classes. But now that I've got that straightened out I'm back. In this chapter Naruto shall be joining the academy. He shall also be working on training Kyubi's chakra as he has not yet learned how to do that.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, its not like everybody didn't already know that.

Chapter 5 The Academy/Kyubi Chakra Training

Naruto got to the training ground that he usually met his sensei at. When he got there he saw his sensei standing in the clearing along with the Hokage. Naruto looked to the two people and respectfully bowed while asking, "Sensei, why is Hokage -Ojisan here?

The Sarutobi decided to speak first, "Naruto you shall be attending the last year of the academy, so that you can find people that you can be placed in a team with and so you can make some friends your own age. Because right now none of the active shinobi would take you seriously."

Naruto look looked at the Hokage and said, "But Ojisan I-."

Orochimaru decided it was time for him to jump into the conversation, "Naruto though you are capable of joining the shinobi force as you are it is a matter of protocol plus the council would throw a fit and probably have you removed from the ranks right after being accepted. By going through the academy and passing like the other students it ensures that the council can't have you removed from the ranks no matter how much they may dislike you (The civilian half anyway)."

Naruto nodded in understanding as he knew that they didn't like him very much and would throw a fit when he became an official ninja. Naruto looked at his sensei and the old Hokage and asked, "When is my first day?"

The Sandaime looked at the young ninja and told him, "In one month you shall begin the academy, you are quite ahead of what they are doing so please don't show off or injure your classmates."

Naruto looked at the old man and responded, "Don't worry jiji deception is the number one tool of a ninja I would have to be an orange clad fool to show off everything I can do."

Orochimaru looked down at his apprentice with pride that he had taken the lessons to heart and was applying them to his life.

Time Skip One Month Later/First Day of the Academy

Naruto was walking through the hall ways on the way to the room he was told to attend. As he reached the room he knocked on the door, he heard a voice tell him it was ok to enter. When he walked in he saw many eyes staring at him curiously. He walked up to the teacher and handed him the slip that the Hokage had given him to give to the teacher.

Iruka looked over the piece of paper and nodded as he had been told before hand. He looked up from the sheet and spoke to the class, "Class we are getting a new student joining us for the last year of the academy.

At this there were several cries of protest, which were immediately silenced by Iruka who used his giant head technique. At this the whole class became deathly silent and Iruka continued, "He gets to skip the first three years because he is an apprentice to one of our active shinobi.

At this Naruto chuckled as he thought, "Orochimaru sensei is way above your average shinobi," but said nothing as Iruka continued.

"I expect you all to treat him well and to not try to pick on him, am I understood?

"Yes Iruka sensei" the class responded.

Iruka nodded and continued, "Ok now we are going to go to the training room too see your taijutsu skills and how they have improved over the summer.

When they got to the dojo Iruka began calling up names for people to fight. First was a pink haired girl named Sakura his immediate thought of her was useless and probably a fangirl, and a Hyuga girl named Hinata who was very timid but felt she could improve greatly if she could gain some confidence. When they got up the discolored haired girl immediately yelled out, "I'll win this for you Sasuke-kun!"

Naruto shook his head as his assumption was confirmed and that the standards had fallen so low that a fangirl could get this far in the academy.

When the teacher told them they could start Naruto slapped himself in forehead when he saw Sakura's stance or lack of it, her guard was so wide Panda could fit through it with space to spare, and the way she went about attacking her opponent was disgraceful since she just charged without even taking a moment to analyze her enemy, "Who outright charges a Hyuga in a taijutsu battle!," thought Naruto. It was no wonder the Hyuga girl took her down in just a few seconds.

The teacher proceeded to call names until he reached the last two people. "Uchiha Sasuke, and Uzumaki Naruto please come take your positions. After saying this every guy in the room flinched as every girl (except Hinata) simultaneously squealed.

After they got their hearing back they took their positions Sasuke decided to taunt his opponent a bit, "You should give up no one can defeat an Uchiha."(1) Naruto just took his stance ignoring the arrogant remarks. and after a moment Iruka began the fight. They could hear the screaming of the rabid fangirls cheering on their idol. They both just stood their a moment each looking the opponent over. Then Sasuke charged. Naruto could tell that he was good judging by his form and speed. But he hadn't been trained by a Sannin.

Right when Sasuke thought he was going to connect and end it with one punch Naruto seemingly vanished and reappeared behind him and kick him in the back sending him sprawling along the ground in the arena. Sasuke growled while his cheer squad screamed his praises. He charged at Naruto again with a punch which was caught by Naruto. He than attempted to punch with his free fist only to find a knee driven into his solar plexus forcing the air from his lungs and sending him sprawling and gasping for breath.

Everyone was astonished. No one had ever beaten Sasuke before and Naruto had just done it almost without trying. Sasuke stood up angry and immediately charged Naruto again. Iruka yelled for him to stop but he kept going. When he got to Naruto Sasuke thought that he had taken Naruto by surprise when he suddenly found himself swinging at nothing but air. Sasuke and all of his fan girls glared at him and the girls began yelling how he cheated or how Sasuke must have let him win.

Iruka who was irritated at the blatant obsession and worship of the fan girls marched up to Sasuke. He grabbed Sasuke by his shoulder and told him, "Sasuke tell your little group to shut up as he won and I can assure all of you he did not cheat!

Sasuke scoffed at him and stated with his usual Uchiha level superiority complex, "Hn" Iruka sighed but turned back to the class and they finished up the taijutsu spar.

Meanwhile Naruto was just standing with a blank expression on his face watching the whole thing play out.

After Iruka made Sasuke apologize for his actions to Naruto and the rest of his peers they went back to the class room for a lecture.

After a couple of hours lecture was done and they were told they could go home. Naruto went to one of the training grounds to train by himself as his sensei had just left for an important mission so he wouldn't be back for a while. When Naruto had finished his warmup and began training to increase his ease with his sword he realized that ever since he got his sword he hadn't been contacted by the Kyubi for more training in his Rinnegan.

So he sat down and decided to meditate which is what he did when he wanted to see Kyubi without the fox calling him into his subconscious.

When he finally got into his mind scape which was unusually difficult. He walked through the various hallways until finally making it to the large sewer like prison that contained the Kyubi. When he approached the cell he didn't see or hear anything which was suspicious as the Kyubi was not known for being shy. Since he wasn't stupid he stopped a good distance from the cell bars and called out to the demon. But he didn't get a response. So he willed for a palm sized rock to appear in his hand. (2) He threw it through the bars with the skill that only shinobi have it flew straight until it hit something and hit the ground.

Naruto then heard a growl and then a really loud yawn then some shuffling that sounded like it was coming towards him. Naruto saw a vulpine snout then two red eyes come out of the blackness and stared at him with a kind of drowsy look. The Kyubi then yawned again then looked at Naruto.

"Kit you better have a good reason for waking me up or seal or no seal I'm going to eat you." Naruto began to sweat a little bit before answering, "He he well you hadn't contacted me for a long time so I was getting curious to where you were. Since I haven't heard from you in about a year so-." Naruto was cut when the Kyubi began to yell.

WHAT! I'VE BEEN ASLEEP FOR A YEAR! WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED..." The large demon stopped mid rant when he remembered. "That sword that damn thing drained so much of my power when it was being created I felt weaker than the Ichibi. I went to sleep to regain my power right now I'm up around the level of the seven tails but why on earth did it demand so much power?" The Kyubi thought about it for a minute before speaking. "Did anything unusual happen when the sword was being forged and what does it do?" asked the Kyubi.

After a brief explanation on the abilities Kyubi was stunned at the abilities of the blade. The blade itself was stronger than any of the blades of the seven swordsmen of the mist. The Kyubi was stunned at the potential the blade gave his container. After some thought on what he was going to do he decided. "Kit I'm going to reestablish our mental link since the one previously was lost after the forging of the sword and after I am going to give you some chakra since I believe that when it was being forged it also took my chakra and it was absorbed into the blade so when using my demon chakra there should be some kind of reaction."

After the demon finished Naruto found himself back outside his mind a few seconds later he felt the demon chakra filling his coils his Rinnegan turned form a pale purple to a fiery red and the tiny pupil in the middle turned into a slit that extended from the top of his eye to the bottom, his canines lengthened, his hair turned even more spiky, and his whisker marks thickened. He looked behind him and saw a tail of chakra waving behind him. But he realized that he wasn't feeling the familiar feeling of hatred and rage that he had felt the few times before when using the chakra. He pulled out his sword to see if it had reacted to his chakra when he pulled it out and looked at it he saw that the golden dragons that had been along the side had changed to burning red foxes and that the whole blade was covered in the demon chakra. He decided he should try his flaming sword attack (3) to see if anything changed. When he swung his sword and willed the wave of fire to come out he got more than he had thought possible. Instead of a wall of flames in was more of a tsunami that completely incinerated anything in its path. It kept going then dispersed around 20 meters in front of him.(4)

Naruto could only whistle at the destruction it caused. When he heard the familiar voice of the Kyubi in his head. "How do you feel?"

Naruto replied, "Strangely calm I don't feel the normal feelings of hatred and rage that usually come with using your chakra I feel like a usually do calm and collected.

The Kyubi was silent for a moment before speaking up. "The sword must enhance your body and suppress the corruption my chakra causes. I will give you more chakra and tell me when you begin to feel the negative effects."

Upon Kyubi finishing his statement Naruto felt even more chakra fill through his body. At two tails he started feeling like he wanted to punch someone or start a fight but it was slight and easy to suppress. At the beginning of three tails the urge was greater. When he was at three and bout to form a fourth is when he mentally yelled, "STOP!" He immediately felt the chakra stop coming but the three tails remained. (5)

"Very good no training at all and already almost at four tails that right there is something that no jinchuriki before can say they accomplished. Well for the ones that could even reach four tails. But very good even though the swords helps you still its a great start.

After his discussion with Kyubi Naruto decided to turn in early that day since even though he wasn't all that physically tired the mental strain he had was quite large that day and didn't feel like doing anything tiring that day.

Time Skip Day Before Graduations

The Hokage was sitting in front of his jonin to see who was going to take on a genin team. There were many elites in front of him among some of them were sharingan no Kakashi, Asuma Sarutobi, and the genjutsu mistress Kurenai.

He decided that everyone who was going to show up was there and decided to begin the team selections. As he was about to call the first jonin foreword to assign their team a black blur burst through the open window. It stopped right in front of the Hokage and unfurled revealing Orochimaru. The Hokage sighed as he said, "Well at least I know who Anko learned how to make her entrances from and what is it with you Sannin's and your entrances its you with your bursting through windows, Jiraiya with his kabuki dance and Tsunade with her blasting the doors off their hinges can't any of you enter like normal people?" he sighed.

Orochimaru chuckled at his sensei's reaction to his entrance when he noticed the strange looks he was getting from the people in the room so he decided he would announce the his reasons for showing up. He suddenly took a very professional posture and stated, "Sensei I would like to request a genin."

Needless to say everyone including the Hokage was quite shocked. This was because of the horrible fate that befell his last team many years ago he had sworn never to take on another genin team which was why Anko was never apart of one and was only his apprentice and filled in occasionally on missions but never had an actual team.

The Hokage being curious about his prized pupils sudden change of heart spoke up, "Orochimaru not that I'm not happy about your sudden change of heart about taking a team but my curiosity demands I ask why?

The snake sannin chuckled as he had expected this response from his old sensei decided to answer, "I merely saw two genin besides my apprentice who I believe could become quite powerful after an attitude adjustment."

This suddenly made everyone curious on who he could be talking about. The Hokage than spoke up, "Well Orochimaru who is it you wish to select for your genin team.

After a long suspenseful pause Orochimaru finally spoke, I would like to request Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, and Hinata Hyuga.

His request was followed by cries of protest from the other jonin sensei's who were complaining about an unbalanced team among other things such as Kurenai who wanted Hinata for her team. The aged leader than silenced everyone than proceeded to speak, "Orochimaru why did you choose these three if it is just because those three you like I cannot condone it."

Orochimaru chuckled and gave his answer, "Sensei I would not select for such a frivolous manner," he said as he glanced at red eyed Kurenai who he knew was going to select Hinata due to her relationship with her in the past, he then continued, "I chose them because it would create a devastatingly balanced team, Hinata with her gentle fist which is such a devastating style will be the close range, Sasuke with his Sharingan and his genjutsu and techniques he can copy will make a formidable long to mid range fighter who can also fight close if he has too, then add Naruto with his destructive rinnegan jutsu, high chakra reserves, and his already high skill in kenjutsu makes a deadly midrange fighter. Combine these three and their selective doejutsu and they make a team that could eventually rival the sannin."

The Hokage's eyes widened at this revelation realizing how right his student was and that they nearly broke up a team that had so much potential.

The whole room was quiet, with several jonin wanting to argue ('cough cough' Kurenai) but could not find fault in the sannin's logic.

The Hokage decided that they should move on so that everyone would not stand around all day trying to come up with an argument to the sannin's team. Hiruzen than coughed loudly bringing everyone's eyes on him. "Well" he started, "Now that we have one team out of the way we can keep going with the selections as he looked around the room noticing Kakashi had vanished since the one he wanted to train, Naruto, and the one he felt he needed to train, Sasuke, were both taken he probably figured he'd didn't need to be there anymore.

The chain smoker Asuma was first to come out of their dazed expressions and stated, "I would like to request Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Choji, and Yamanaka Ino for my team, it worked with their dads why not them too?" The Hokage nodded in approval and gestured for the next to come up.

Kurenai decided to speak next and said, "I would like Inuzuka Kiba, Aburame Shino, and Haruno Sakura I feel a tracking and support based team will be what they'll be best at." The Hokage nodded and gestured for the next sensei.

The next few minutes were with the rest of the sensei's choosing their teams. Once it was all over they all went out to prepare the training fields for each of their selective teams second genin test.

The next day had all our favorite future genin were sitting there all proud of themselves for passing the genin exam the day prior and all had their headbands proudly tied on their foreheads, biceps, belts, etc.

Iruka than walked into the class room and quickly silenced everyone with his giant head jutsu and began to call off teams. Team 7 is "Uchiha Sasuke", at this every girl that had not yet been chosen (again other than Hinata) was sitting on the edge of their seats waiting to hear the next two results, "Uzumaki Naruto", when he said this Hinata began to silently pray to Kami that her name would be called to be placed on her crush's team, she was so busy praying with her fingers crossed that she almost didn't hear Iruka call out the final name, "Hinata Hyuga and you sensei shall be Orochimaru of the sannin." When he said this there was a large outcry of "WHAT!? in the room where all the fangirls screamed at not having been placed on their precious "Sasuke-kun's" team. While Hinata was silently thanking what ever deity that had decided to listen to her pleas.

Naruto was quite happy that a fangirl wasn't placed on the same team as him but he didn't know too much about Hinata other than was quite shy and would turn quite red and stutter a lot when he tried to talk to her which he found kind of strange and would often ask if she was sick and feel her forehead only for her too pass out. (6)

Sasuke on the other hand was mentally cheering "Yes! No fangirls! And since both possess bloodlines themselves and while I'm jealous of Naruto's power at least I won't have team mates who will just slow me down and having a sannin as a sensei should give me enough power to defeat him."

Iruka was quick to regain order in his class room and proceeded to read of the rest of the teams Team 8 shall be Inuzuka Kiba, Aburame Shino, and Haruno Sakura. Your sensei shall be Kurenai Yuhi. There were two loud thuds as Kiba's and Sakura's heads hit their desks as neither liked each other at all Kiba not liking Sakura since she hurt his and Akamaru's sensitive ears, and Sakura not liking Kiba since she thinks she smells like wet dog and kibbles.

Iruka than continued "and since team 9 is still in circulation from last year team 10 is Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Choji, and Yamanaka Ino. It has been a pleasure to teach each and everyone of you, your new sensei's will be here to pick you up soon.

Everyone was patiently waiting as sensei's came and got their students then a black object burst through the window shattering it and landing in the middle of the class room it unfurled to show a man with long black hair, snake like eyes, and lanky but agile looking form. Naruto just rolled his eyes at his sensei's over the top entrance. Orochimaru looked around and announced, "Team 7 meet me on the top of the building in 5 minutes or you'll be finding snakes in your bed for the next month."

After he said this he dissolved into snakes which than slithered out the door. Naruto just rolled his eyes at his sensei and vanished in a leaf shunshin.

When Hinata and Sasuke got to the roof they found Naruto and their new sensei sitting there quietly waiting for them to show up. When they sat Orochimaru spoke up, "Alright lets introduce ourselves, likes, dislikes, hobbies, dreams for the future, I'll go first, I like snakes and training, I don't like sour things and the smut my teammate takes part in and writes, I like learning new jutsu, and my dream is to find a way to become immortal. Ok pale eyes, your turn."

Hinata looked a bit nervous but answered anyway, "M-my name i-is Hyuga Hinata, I-I like f-flowers, cinnamon rolls, and..." She blushed while subtly glancing at her blonde teammate than continued, "I don't l-like my f-families caged b-bird seal, and my d-dream is t-to unite the t-two branches."

Orochimaru than looked at Sasuke than said, "You next broody."

Scowling at the nickname he began non the less, "My names Uchiha Sasuke, I don't like many things, and I dislike a lot of things, my hobbies are training, and my dream, no I won't call it a dream its more of an ambition cause it will happen, I will kill a certain someone and bring back my clan.

Orochimaru than though over his two new students, 'I have an avenger and a shy Hyuga hopefully it won't take too ling to turn their personalities around but now to hear my apprentices intro.' He then turned and nodded to his apprentice telling him to go ahead.

He began, "My name is Uzumaki Naruto, I like ramen, training, and my sword, I don't like people who judge others without first getting to know them and the time it takes to cook ramen, my hobbies are learning more about my blood line and swords, watering my plants, and trying new flavors of ramen (7). My dream is to become the most powerful shinobi in the elemental nations.

Orochimaru nodded in approval of his new students then spoke, "All right meet me at training ground 7 tomorrow at 8 for your real genin exam.

They all looked at him curiously than Hinata spoke, "B-but sensei w-we already t-took the genin e-exam."

He chuckled before saying, "If you thought using such pathetic E rank ninjutsu and a written test was all it took to become ninja we would have a lot more genin deaths than we already have. Anyone could pass that exam that test is just to figure out who is absolutely hopeless this next test has a 66% fail rate meaning of the 9 teams that were made only 3 will enter active duty the others will be sent back to the academy for another year of training or if their sensei see's fit dropped from the shinobi program entirely."

The three doejutsu wielding kids all looked at their sensei in shock and Naruto with a bit of frustration since this was the first he was hearing of this. At this the snake sannin vanished in a shunshin leaving three conflicted kids on the roof.

End Chapter

1) He is still cocky at this point something that will change as the story progresses.

2) Its his mind he can do what ever he wants.

3) I haven't come up with a name yet if anyone has any ideas post them as a review and I'll select the one I like best and if you win I'll give you a shout out.

4) This is Japan so they use meters if you don't know how long a meter is its about half of a door. An average door is two meters long.

5) He can't have him progress too fast I'm not having him be god-like yet, thats not till towards the end, he's already stronger than I had originally intended.

6) He wouldn't be Naruto if he wasn't dense.

7) He wouldn't be Naruto without his love of ramen.

Again I apologize for the really late update. As you can see I'm keeping things similar to the canon for their personality. Naruto is going to be darker occasionally but most of the time he's just gonna be serious rather than acting stupidly like he does in the canon. Sasuke will lose his superiority complex as the story continues and the same with Hinata's shyness. This is a NaruHina and I will not change it I don't care how many ask. They however will not actively going out for a good portion of time there will be moments but nothing serious. I find those who have them having sex at thirteen to be quite disgusting they will not do anything serious until they reach the age of fifteen or sixteen depending on time skips or how the story progresses.

I am taking a vote on who you want Sasuke paired with I am going to list the girls you can choose from under this. Just vote as a review I'll keep track of the numbers and the end of the vote will be when I release chapter 7 which hopefully will be in a few weeks. So the girls of choice are

Ino

Tenten

Shion

Kin

Tayuya

Those are the choices note that Sakura is not an option because I have special plans for her (laughs evilly) Well until my next update, Genokiller out.
