Weeks had passed untill the finals of the Chunnin Exams came and everyone gathered in their seats to watch the upcoming events. Goku sat by Sakura who was chatting with her blond friend Ino. Goku noticed his young pupil dressed in a gi similar to his old one. Goku remembered how hard it was to convince Naruto to change out of that old jump suit of his but the blond caved in when he seen that Goku's old gi had orange in it. Goku seen Hinata standing by Naruto and by a glance alone you could see the girl was more confident in herself than she was a month ago. Our favorite Saiyan hero also noticed she was wearing white gloves and boots that reminded him of Vegeta's old attire.
'I wonder what training Vegeta put her through' Goku looked over to see Vegeta actually talking to Zabuza of all people. Goku wondered what the two could be talking about but for some reason he thought it would be better if he didn't know.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the finals of the Chunnin Exams"Genma announced while the audience cheered. "The first match will be Hyuuga Hinata vs Hyuuga Neji, so all participants besides the ones I named please head to the stand"Naruto and everyone else headed to the stands while the two Hyuuga's stood across from the other. Neji's eyes were trying to glare holes through Hinata and that would have worked a month ago but she went through training with one of the most badass sensei's. She was alot more confident in herself than shes ever been in her whole life.
"You should give up Hinata Sama, fate has declared you weak"Neji spat out his cousin's name like it was a poison. Hinata gained a small smirk.
"Can't do that Neji-nii-san, I will be the one winning today"Neji's glare only got more heated and actually growled like he was insulted by the proclaim.
"You have always been weak and today I will put you in your place and prove the true strength of the Branch house" Neji's pale eyes gained vains on the side, showing everyone the proud bloodline of the Hyuuga's. Hinata's eyes mimicked the same thing her cousin did and both slipped into the Juken fighting style, the same fighting style that makes the Hyuuga's deadly in Taijutsu. The sun shined down above, warming everyone who was caught in its bright light. The sun light reflected off the leaves on the tree in the middle of the stadium. A shade grew underneath the tree, filling a small part of the stadium with shadows.
"Begin"Genma announced while jumping out of the way. Both fighters didn't budge, their eyes locked on the other waiting to see who would make the first move. A sudden wind blew through the stadium and picked off a leaf from the tree. As the wind guided the leaf to the ground, everyone waited with anticipation. Finally the small green leaf gently landed on the ground.
The two Hyuuga's rushed forward in a burst of speed, ready to begin combat. Hinata and Neji both palm thrusted with their right hands which connected in a stale mate. Both family members trying to fight for dominance in the struggle. Neji used his other palm in attempt to hit Hinata but she quickly threw her right palm to the side and used her left to keep Neji's right one in place. Neji seeing his attack get blocked growled before trying to kick his cousin in the abdomen but Hinata's knee stopped that attempt as well. Using her strength, Hinata pushed her cousin back which caused the older Hyuuga to stumble back in surprise. Hiashi was surprised that his daughter was stopping her cousin so easily as he always believed his eldest daughter was a weak heir. He was beggining to wonder who could have trained her so well.
Surprise was instantly replaced by anger as Neji would not be humiliated by his weaker cousin. He dashed towards Hinata and began to try and hit her with his Juken style. Hinata dodged her cousin's deadly palm strikes while using her own to counter attack. Neji and Hinata both kept attacking while the others were watching the battle before them in amazement as some have never seen two Hyuuga's fight it out before. Neji sent a Juken strike to Hinata's face but instead of using her own to deflect, she ducked before thrusting her elbow into Neji's gut. He gasped feeling the attack to his mid section and looked down to see Hinata glaring at him but a small smirk was on her face. Before he could make the next move, Hinata uppercutted Neji which caused him to stumble back once more.
'What is going on here, shes the weakest of the Hyuuga clan. So why can't I hit her?"Neji thought in anger while rubbing his now bruised jaw.
"Come now Neji-ne-san this fight still going on"Hinata said while dashing towards her cousin. Neji attacked first but Hinata's hit met his own. The two Hyuua's began to fight in multiple combo's of Juken strikes and avoidances. When ever Hinata would strike, Neji would block it with his own attack. When Neji struck back, Hinata would always deflect it. The two were fighting with speeds some Genin couldn't keep up with while Naruto, Goku and a few others didn't have no problem seeing the battle. Hinata caught Neji's next palm strike before Judo flipping him and the older Hyuuga landed on the ground with a thud. Hinata stared down at the fallen form of her cousin with a small smile and eyes full of sympathy.
"Why Neji-nii-san do you hate me so much.. is it because of what happened to Uncle Hizashi?"Hinata asked while Neji's Byakugan glared at her own. Acting fast, Neji quickly Juken struck Hinata's left leg which caused her to yelp in pain for having her chakra point forcefully closed. But before she knew it, Neji returned to his feet before landing a strong right punch right across his cousin's cheek. Hinata crashed onto the floor and groaned from the sudden attack. Neji panted as he put almost all his strength into that punch. Hinata rose to her feet while her left leg was limp, she focused all the support on her right leg. Blood dripped from the corner of her mouth and her cheek began to darken, showing a bruise would definatly form.
"You Hinata and all of the others that are apart of the Main House make me sick. For your father to have mine killed is unforgivable and I will end your life here cousin!"Neji shouted while Hinata frowned. She always thought Neji was upset by the loss of his dad, after all that was when he started to act cold towards her and the Main Branch. But she never expected him to hold this much hatred.
"Fine then Neji-nii-san, its time to stop holding back"Hinata declared while Neji sneered.
"Fine its your funeral"Neji put his hand in the ram seal before gathering his chakra. Energy exploded around Neji as his chakra levels began to rise to their peaks. Hinata was proud her cousin had come so far and has become so strong. All she needed to do now was lift the darkness from his heart. Neji dropped the hand seal but the chakra kept dancing around him like a flame. When it finally died down, everyone was impressed by the display of power that Neji produced.
'This kid is strong but Ive trained Hinata to be stronger than this fool'Vegeta thought while a smirk graced the Saiyan's face. Hinata removed her jacket and everyone noticed she was wearing a strange armor underneath. She took off her gloves and threw them to the side. What happened next shocked everyone except Goku and Naruto. The ground exploded as soon as her gloves hit it. Everyone's jaw was hanging on the floor as they seen the glove shaped crater. She took off her boots and threw them to the side as well and got the same results. Hinata stretched her arm and leg muscles before completly relaxing.
"I don't care what kind of training you've had, youll never defeat me"Neji declared. Neji blinked once and a Juken strike already hit him across the face. Neji flew off his feet from the force of the attack and crashed into the side of the stadium.
Now Goku was impressed, Hinata definatly gotten some real hard training in that month if she could move that fast. Naruto watched with wide eyes at the speed Hinata showed and he couldn't understand why but he smiled. Maybe it was because of the possibility he could be facing Hinata in the Exams and test his skills. It also helped that she was kinda cute as well. All the Jounin present was also surprised as she moved at speeds faster than a Mid Chunnin. Neji climbed to his feet after feeling the hard strike to his face. But before he knew it he was knocked off his feet again by Hinata who attacked him in bursts of speed. Now Neji was getting pissed, not only was his supposed weaker cousin beating the hell out of him, she could possibly win the match. His Byakugan caught glimpses of Hinata as she charged him from behind.
'I can't believe I have to use this Jutsu on Hinata of all people'Neji thought angrily before gathering his chakra and began to spin. A dome of chakra began to form around Neji's spinning form. Hinata's Byakugan eyes widened seeing her cousin using the best defensive technique of the Hyuuga clan. She was so shocked, she didnt even stop her charge towards her cousin. Hinata crashed into the dome of chakra before she was launched and hit the wall hard. Neji stopped his rotation as his cousin climbed her way out of the hole in the wall.
"It seems you know a few tricks Neji-nii-san, for one of the Branch Family to learn the best defense of the Main House is most impressive"Hinata praised her cousin while panting, that defensive barrier really hurt when she slammed into it. Neji growled in anger, he didn't want any acknowledgement from his cousin. He wanted her to be laying at his feet begging for mercy!
"Hinata dammit finish him off with that technique you've been working on!"Vegeta shouted while Hinata looked over to her newest sensei with wide eyes before she noded and put her hands in the ram seal. Chakra burst from around the Hyuuga princess as she was surrounded in a ball of chakra like her cousin had done earlier.
'Concentrate, focus'Hinata thought as the chakra around her began to grow smaller untill it was all concentrated on her arms. Hinata held out her arms as her chakra seemed to crawl up them before her hands were incased in two orbs of chakra. Neji wouldn't admit it out loud but he was starting to get worried about the amount of chakra his cousin had concentrated into those two orbs.
"Its done"Hinata said before she dashed towards her cousin. Neji didn't have time to react as his cousin planted one of her chakra covered fists into his gut. Neji coughed up a little blood but Hinata wasn't done there.
'Explode'Hinata thought as she opened her palm that was still buried into her cousin's stomach. Neji felt more pain begin to rip through him as his cousin's chakra started to go violent before it exploded(If any of you have played DBZ Budokai 3 for the Ps2, the attack was similar to Bardock's finisher on that game). Both Hyuuga's were launched off their feet due to the force from the violent explosion. Hinata's body crashed into the tree while her cousin's made another hole in the wall. Hinata's body slid to the ground and her face was a grimance of pain.
'Damn I still need more concentration with that technique. It shouldn't have hurt me as well' Hinata thought as her legs felt like jelly as she tried to stand back up. She finally made it off the ground as the form of Neji crawled out of the hole in the wall. His clothes were torn and cuts were visible on his body. The most noticable was the burn mark on his midsection where the attack exploded. Neji's Byakugan deactivated as he no longer had the chakra to keep them on. Hinata's did the same except she turned hers off.
"Go Hinata chan, you can do it!"Naruto shouted while Neji noticed his cousin's cheeks began to grow a little pink. Neji began to chuckle as Hinata's cheeks returned to normal while she raised an eyebrow.
"Somthing funny Neji-nii-san?"Hinata asked while the useual emotionless Hyuuga was cracking up like he finally lost it.
"I can't believe you Hinata actually have feelings for the dead last of the academy"Neji stated while Hinata's eyes widened before they narrowed in anger.
"If were so weak like you claim Nii-san then why are you having your ass handed to you by me"Hinata's eyes glared into Neji who stopped laughing as his two glared holes into his cousin. Others were surprised because they never thought the shy Hyuuga Hinata would use such language.
"Come and know your place trash"Neji spat out with hatred.
"Gladly"Hinata charged her cousin while neither slipped into the regular Hyuuga stance. Goku observed the girl and realised this next fight wouldn't involve palm strikes or closing the others chakra points. No this would be a brawl to the finish. A family matter that could possibly come to a close, it would be blood against blood, Hyuuga against Hyuuga. Hinata Versues Neji.
Both cousin's lashed out as they connected their fists to the others jaw. Neji recovered fast and punched Hinata in the chest. Hinata grunted in pain before her fist once again drilled into her cousin's face. Neji saw stars in his eyes before he returned the punch with equal force. Hinata slammed her knee into her cousin's stomach making him spit up blood. Neji tried to strike his cousin again only for her to do a back hand spring, causing the tip of her feet to hit Neji's already abused jaw. Landing on her feet, she ran forward and attacked Neji with multiple punches. Neji finally was able to land a strong kick to the stomach, knocking Hinata off her feet and giving him time to recover. Everyone noticed how beaten the two looked except Neji looked a little worse than Hinata did.
"One last move to end it Neji-nii-san?"Hinata asked while Neji didn't answer instead he charged forward with the intent to finish his cousin off. His palm was drawn back while Hinata mimicked his actions. Everyone watched as time seemed to slow down as the distance between the two got shorter and shorter. Vegeta watched in waiting to see what his young pupil was going to do. Goku and the others were watching to see who was going to stand victorious.
As they drew closer Hinata did somthing that shocked some of the people watching the battle. She quickly withdrew her palm before she jumped in the air with a kick aimed straight for Neji's unguarded face. Neji was in shock because he honestly didn't expect somthing like this. Neji didn't even have time to gather his thoughts as his attack missed and Hinata's hit hard. Her foot was firmly planted at the base of his jaw. Neji heard a ringing in his ears as stumbled back before collapsing on the ground. Hinata panted as she viewed the fallen form of her cousin who was now resting in the world of unconsiousness. After a few seconds, the proctor decided to call the match.
"Winner Hyuuga Hinata"Immediantly cheers broke out due to the outstanding performance the two Genin of Konoha showed. They showed fierce determination and the will to never give up. Vegeta smiled one of pride as his pupil beat her cousin to the ground. Goku was happy that his friend finally proved to her cousin that she was alot stronger than others believed she was. He was also inwardly chuckling as Naruto cheered the loudest out of everyone. Everyone noticed Hinata smile once before she collapsed to the ground as well, she was out like a light. Two medics came and took the two for medical treatment and rest.
"Wow what a match right Sakura"Goku turned his attention to his pink haired teammate.
"Definatly Goku kun, it was a great fight"Sakura said.
"Now lets see how your apprentice does Kakarott"Goku smiled as he recognized that voice from anywhere. Goku looked over to see Vegeta standing behind him with a smug look.
"Don't get over confident Vegeta, you might have taught Hinata san a few tricks when it came to speed and fighting. But don't think me and Naruto wasted the month not training"
"Yeah, Ive trained hard this month and after I win the Exams I will be one step closer to being Hokage!"Naruto shouted at the end which Goku chuckled at and Vegeta sweat dropped.
"Next match is Naruto Uzumaki vs Rock Lee"
"Yeah now its my turn!"Naruto shouted as he leaped onto the arena floor. He raced towards Genma and began to do some stretches
"I will make you proud Gai Sensei"Lee declared before making his way onto the battlefield as well. Both shinobi stood apart from the other with competitive grins on their faces, both ready to give it all in this fight.
"Lets have a good fight Naruto kun and show everyone here are Flames Of Youth!"Lee shouted while giving the nice guy pose.
"Sure thing busy brows, you have better made sure you trained hard over the month or this match won't last long"Naruto said with a smile as he finished his stretching.
"Yosh, I trained hard this month Naruto kun, Ive pushed my body to its limits and back. Im here to prove to everyone you don't need just Ninjutsu or know how to use chakra to be a great shinobi"Both shinobi walked towards the middle of the arena before shaking the others hand in a sign of respect for the other.
"Begin" The Jounin leaped out of the way not wanting to get caught in the middle of the battle between the two they released the handshake, both vanished.
Most Genin and some of the Jounin were once again impressed by the speeds the two young shinobi were moving at.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX X
"Amazing, first a more confident and strong Hinata, now Naruto the supposed dead last of the academy and Lee moving at these inhuman speeds"Shikamaru muttered, he looked over to Sakura to see that she was talking to Goku and that new guy about somthing.
"Damn Goku, you've trained Naruto well"Sakura praised while Goku scratched the back of his head in pride and embarassment.
"Yeah when I was training Naruto, I mostly worked on his fighting style, his reflexes, his speed and strength. Thats why hes wearing a version of my old outfit, its all weighted clothing"Goku said while Sakura nodded.
"I did the same with Hinata, she wasn't fighting as fast as she could have been Kakarott, so I will say if those two fight it will be interesting"Vegeta said.
"I agree, I also taught Naruto a little technique"Goku smiled the famous Son grin. Vegeta narrowed his eyes with suspicion at his rival/friend.
"What did you teach him exactly Kakarott?" Goku motioned for him to get closer which the Saiyan prince did. Goku whispered in his ear and Vegeta's eyes widened a second later.
"How did you teach him that Kakarott, he obviously can't use Ki?"
"The energy their using is so similar to what we use, the technique could be replicated"Goku said while Vegeta nodded. Now Goku was suspicious about somthing, he thought Vegeta would have been angry over what he taught Naruto, what did the Saiyan prince have left in his bag of tricks.
Naruto and Lee appeared in a swirl of sand and dust while a huge sonic boom echoed through the arena. Naruto's fist was crashed against Lee's which resulted in a huge shockwave forcing the two fighters to seperate.
"You have definatly improved over the month Naruto kun, im enjoying this battle"Lee smiled while he gave a slight sharp inhale of breath before exhaling.
"Thanks bushy brows, your not too bad yourself"Naruto commented.
Both Genin rushed the other before ramming their fists and kicks at the others at speeds that made them look invisible, but instead of going all over, it was a stationary battle.
Naruto was leaning and dodging, doing his best not to get hit by the green clad Genin. Lee's attacks didn't stop one bit while increasing in speed and he noticed Naruto seemed to be doing the same. Occasionaly their attacks would collide with the others and a small shockwave would explode and send a small dust cloud through the arena.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX X
"Wow just wow"Ino said and she couldn't believe the battle infront of her was taking place. Naruto and Lee were moving so fast she couldn't even see their attacks.
"My thoughts exactly"Asuma said, his eyes never leaving the fight.
"Whats more amazing"A voice said behind the two"Is those two don't seem to be fighting at their limits"
"Kakashi san, Sasuke kun!" Ino shouted with glee. The white haired Jounin waved while Sasuke didn't even acknowledge her. Both were standing in the row behind them."When did you guys get here?"
"Just now actually"Kakashi eye smiled while he noticed Sasuke eyeing the battle with interest. Sasuke's eyes snapped open to reveal a chrimson red with two tomoes. The movements were no longer a blur to his eyes and his vision was more clear.
'Damn' Sasuke cursed while at the same time was amused.'It seems the dobe has improved and his speed might have surpassed my own. It doesn't matter anyway, in the end they will all fall to the power of the Uchiha'Sasuke thought while a small smirk grew on his face.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX X
Naruto ducked to the side as Lee's fist flew past his head. Naruto's foot blasted Lee's exposed stomach which caused the other Genin to hiss in pain. Thinking quickly, Lee used his other limb to trap Naruto's leg. Lee wasn't done there, he then began to spin Naruto around while a small dust tornado began to surround the two, showing all who was watching just how fast Lee was spinning Naruto. Lee released Naruto and sent him flying towards the wall. Naruto's eyes widened and then did the only thing he could think of. Putting his hands in a familiar seal, he called out his favorite technique.
"Kage Bunshin jutsu"Two shadow clones appeared behind the original before they all collided together. All shinobi present were impressed by Naruto's quick thinking and use of the Kage Bunshin.
"Thanks guys"Naruto said to his clones who gave him the thumbs up. Naruto noticed his clones eyes widened before both threw him a good few feet away. Not even a second later, an explosion of dirt and chunks of the ground flew all across the battlefield. Naruto looked over to see Lee's fist was crashed into the same place both of his shadow clones used to be. Naruto pulled two shuriken and threw them at Lee who whipped out a kunai to deflect them. Suddenly a poof appeared infront of Lee who saw white as two shadow clones that were henged as the shuriken slammed their feet into Lee's jaw. Lee left the ground and Naruto summoned two more clones who continued the assualt on Lee as they kicked him farther up into the air. The original Naruto jumped high in the air before front flipping and crashed his own foot into Lee's face.
Well that would have happened if Lee didn't catch Naruto's foot and use their momentum to throw the blond towards the ground. Naruto crashed into the tree and the whole thing shook violently while leaves danced their way off the branches. Naruto spat out some blood while Lee hit the ground which formed a small crater underneath. The green clad shinobi had no time to stop his decend towards the ground as he spent most of his time throwing Naruto into the tree. Both shinobi shook the ringing from their skulls as they stood up to battle.
"I think were done with the warm up Lee, lets push this battle to our limits"Naruto said while Lee only smiled while pulling up his orange leg warmers revealings weights underneath. Naruto pulled down his gi top and struggled to pull off the blue clothing underneath. Eventually both pulled off their weights and threw them to the side. As soon as both weights touched the ground, huge craters appeared. Naruto began to stretch his arms and legs while Lee mimicked his movements.
"Im not done yet Lee"Naruto said while a fire burned in his crystal blue eyes. The Jinchuriki put his arms to the side and his teeth clentched while everyone seemed to think he was building his chakra levels. What happened next shocked everyone. Steam began to rise off the blonds body and everyone could only think of a certain Saiyan who did the same thing only a month ago.
"Kaioken"A red aura flared around Naruto and everyone felt the power increase. Kakashi's eyes widened seeing Goku's technique used by his student.
"How did Naruto use the Kaioken, he can't use Ki?"Kakashi asked surprised.
"I can answer that"Everyone spun to see Goku standing their with Vegeta not to far behind. "You see the Kaioken doesn't require just Ki to use, its where you build up all your power and then release it in one huge burst. It increases your heart beat as well which flows more adrenaline to your muscles. I thought since Ki and Chakra were so similar I could teach it to him"Goku explained while Kakashi accepted his answer and couldn't help but feel proud towards his sensei's son.
"It seems Lee has lost this match"Kakashi sounded smug while saying this but he heard the laughter of his supposed Eternal Rival.
"Thats where your wrong Kakashi"Gai took a deep breath."LEE GO AHEAD AND SHOW HIM THE TRUE POWER OF YOUR FLAMES OF YOUTH!"
"YES SENSEI!"Lee shouted back. He looked Naruto dead in his eyes while the blond noticed a fire burning their as well."Its time to show you the full extent of my training"
"Kaimon...Kai"Lee shouted while his face turned a dark red and his dark coal colored hair stood on ends. A blue aura flared around him while Naruto shouted once again bringing up his own power to match Lee's.
"The Kaioken vs The Celestial Gates"Kakashi said while inwardly he was cursing Gai for teaching his student somthing as dangerous as using the gates.
