Kakashi dodged out of the way of Shisui's pressure blasts, and jumped out of the way of Hattori's slashes. The samurai spun on his heel and sent a Horizontal slash at Kakashi.

The Cyclops Jonin flipped backwards in time to avoid the slash and spun on his palm, sending a heel kick at the human puppet.

Hattori raised his swords across him and blocked the incoming strikes, then slashed at Kakashi again, this time with a chakra infused slash.

The Jonin jumped out of the way in time to avoid being cut to ribbons and attempted a counterattack…

"Suiton: Rensei Kadou!" Kakashi snapped his head around and saw a spiral drill of water shoot out of Shisui's claw. The drill spun faster and faster, sending wisps of water out as it tore through the air. Kakashi quickly ran through hand seals and shouted…

"Suiton: Suiryudan no Jutsu!" the nearby pond exploded as a dragon made of water shot out towards the incoming drill.

The two attacks clashed with a splash, twisting and crashing into each other, sending particles upon particles of water everywhere as they tried to gain the upper hand.

Kakashi was so focused on his technique, that he did not notice Hattori jump behind him until the last second. He dove out of the way and released his jutsu, allowing the drill to gain the upper hand and crash into Kakashi's path.

He crossed his arms across his chest and managed to avoid the flying rocks and stone.

Hattori landed next to Shisui and sheathed his blades, "Ready Shisui?"

Shisui turned towards Hattori and nodded, "Ready Hattori…" Hattori grinned as he reached into a pouch on his side and took out an odd looking object. It had two hollow parts that were in the shape of the hilt of each of his blades, and it had a chain attached at the bottom, there were also what appeared to be polarized attraction seals placed on its sides.

Hattori slipped them onto the two Katana's on his right side…there was a clicking sound just before Hattori pulled out his two katanas. The object that he had placed on their hilts connected the two at the hilt, and then forced the bottoms of their hilts to connect with each other, creating a double bladed sword.

Hattori spun the blade in one hand…then gripped the combined hilt as he charged chakra through it, "Jougen Kire!" the chakra shaped around the sword as he swung it, sending a barrage of crescent shaped chakra slashes at Kakashi.

Shisui held up his claw…and forced it to widen at 180'. A seal in the joint of the claw glowed brightly as the Uchiha human puppet spoke, "Bakuretsu Gogyou Tsume!" an explosion of water erupted from the claw and formed into a larger version of said claw. Shisui jumped at Kakashi and reared the claw back before he shot it towards the Jonin.

Kakashi reacted quickly and performed hand signs, "Doton: Iwa Kabe" a wall of stone erected itself and stopped the incoming strikes.

The resulting explosion caused by the blocked attacks created a cloud cover that blocked out all vision in the area. Hattori and Shisui got ready for a counterattack…unaware of the shadowed figure behind them.

Naruto vs. Yamato

Naruto and Yamato charged at each other as wood shot from the ground around them. Yamato created a spear out of wood, while Naruto pulled out his own bo-staff and rode on one of the roots that were heading towards Yamato.

The two clashed weapons, making Yamato's staff split from the sheer force behind Naruto's staff. Yamato looked at the staff and turned towards Naruto, "Nice staff…where did you get it?"

Naruto smirked as he applied more pressure, making Yamato's staff snap in two. He swung the ornate staff at his fellow Mokuton user, making him jump back. Yamato landed on the ground and forced another wooden staff to grow.

Naruto spun his staff around, "I got this staff from my sensei." Yamato raised an eyebrow as he scratched his head.

"I was unaware that Akasuna no Sasori knew how to perform bojutsu." Naruto grinned…before he suddenly vanished.

Yamato spun around and blocked a strike from Naruto, who was chuckling lightly; "Who ever said I got it from Sasori-sensei?" he kicked Yamato in the chest, making the wood using ANBU operative cringe as he blocked another strike from Naruto.

Naruto suddenly jumped into the air and threw three kunai at Yamato, who ducked out of the way, making them fly into the trees.

Naruto grinned as he sealed up his staff, 'Perfect…' he ran through hand seals and shouted, "Mokuton: Dajurin no Jutsu!" Naruto punched his arm forward, sending thick spiked roots at Yamato from his arm.

Yamato leapt out of the way and ran through hand seals, "Mokuton: Mokujoheki." pillars of wood shot out of the ground and formed a dome around Yamato, blocking the incoming wood spikes.

Naruto frowned, and then grinned as he performed a hand sign with his free hand, "Origami no Jutsu: Nokogiri." the spiked roots quickly split apart into paper and formed into several whirring buzz saws and then sliced into the wooden wall create by the former ANBU member.

Yamato saw the wooden begin to split and opened up a port behind him in his wooden wall and got out just as the saw blades completely cut through.

Naruto saw Yamato get out of the dome and was about to attack him…when he suddenly froze and his eyes widened. He then sighed in annoyance and sat with his legs crossed, grumbling about, 'Idiotic teammates and their stupid egos.'

Yamato saw Naruto's condition, "Uhm…aren't you going to attack me?"

Naruto sighed and scratched the back of his head, "Why bother, even if I do I would have failed this test because my damn teammates aren't willing to work together."

Yamato raised an eyebrow, "How do you know that?"

Naruto stood up, "You know those three kunai I threw at you?" Yamato nodded his head, "Those were actually transformed clones that I sent to get the three stooges to work with me. But apparently those three don't want to work together."

Yamato raised an eyebrow, "How do you know that?"

Naruto chuckled, "Kage Bunshin was originally created to be a reconnaissance ninjutsu, if one dispels, then I get all the information that the clone originally had. I sent three clones to try and get the three of them…I can tell you exactly what they said." Naruto coughed and spoke in a voice sounding much like Kiba, "No way you dead last orphan bastard! I will not work with my competition to Hinata's heart." he then coughed again and spoke in a voice very reminiscent of Sakura, "No way you dead last dobe, neither I, nor Sasuke-kun needs the help of a worthless loser like you!" he coughed again and spoke much like Sasuke, "I am an Uchiha, an elite, I don't need the help of a clanless bastard."

Yamato sighed as he massaged his temples…

Naruto continued to speak, "And to add to that, they all ran a kunai into my Kage Bunshins chest, whole heartedly thinking that they were the real me."

Yamato gasped in shock, his own teammates attacked his Kage Bunshin with intent to kill, thinking it was the real Naruto?

Naruto shrugged his shoulders, "Well, since the test is now over and useless, I am going to go sit down." he reached into his pocket and pulled out an apple and bit into it, "Mmmm, juicy." he walked over to a nearby tree and continued to eat his apple.

Yamato meanwhile was rubbing his temples, "Oh boy…"

Twenty Minutes Later

Kakashi walked through the trees, confused as hell. He had snuck up on the two puppets and was about to take them down when they fell over, utterly useless.

He had sealed them into a scroll and headed off to find his opponents…only to find him and Yamato conversing over things such as architecture and botany.

He walked up to them and asked, "Uhm, why aren't the two of you fighting? The test is still…" Yamato interrupted Kakashi.

"The test is over; Naruto is the only one who gets the true meaning behind the test. The others would sooner stab their teammate in the back than work with him."

Kakashi sighed…he hoped the last Uchiha would be smarter than this, he knew Kiba and Sakura were not smart enough to get it, but he expected the last Uchiha of all people to get it. He shrugged his shoulders and thought to himself, 'Well, I am sure once we begin training him he will understand.'

Five Minutes Later

Kiba, Sasuke, and Sakura were tied to the logs while Naruto was arguing with Kakashi about his human puppets. Kakashi wanted to hand them over to Sasuke, thinking he will have more use for them, but Naruto told him that the two puppets were created by him, and that he made certain that nobody else could use them except for him. Kakashi eventually relented and gave Naruto the scrolls, saying that if the Uchiha could not use them than they were useless.

Naruto tucked them away, but made certain to keep a close eye on Kakashi.

Kakashi turned towards the group, "Alright, I have good news, and bad news…the good news is that none of you will be sent back to the academy." the three tied up genin cheered, but Naruto narrowed his eyes, "The bad news is that all of you will be dropped from the shinobi program."

"WHAT?!" all four of the genin shouted, with Naruto leaking killing intent. The blond Genins stepped forward and snapped at Kakashi, "What the hell point is there in dropping us from the shinobi program you ass?!"

Kakashi glared at Naruto, "Because none of you deserve it, not one of you could get the true meaning behind the test." Naruto snarled at Kakashi and shouted.

"NONE…uhm dumb ass, I figured it out in the first few seconds, we had to work together as a team, why the hell do you think I sent those damn Kage Bunshin after those three to get them to help?!"

Kakashi snorted, "If the Uchiha could not figure it out, I doubt a dead last orphan could." Yamato stared at Kakashi in shock. This was not the man who he admire for so long.

Naruto rolled his eyes and walked over to the thee genin and reached into their pouch and pulled out a single kunai each. He tossed them towards Yamato who caught them, "Check them for traces of my chakra…"

Yamato did as such, and found tat all three kunai had Naruto's chakra covering the entire blade, He looked at the three genin…and gave them a haunting look, scaring them half to death, "You three attacked Naruto without provocation with intent to kill?"

Sakura snapped, "It was just a Kage Bunshin!" Yamato glared at her and snapped.

"But you didn't know it was a Kage Bunshin until after you stabbed it, am I correct?" Sakura opened her mouth to retort…only to look down.

Kakashi sighed, "Very well, I will give all of you a second chance. Naruto, you are allowed to eat…but do give them any of the bento." Kakashi and Yamato vanished, leaving Naruto with the three bentos.

Naruto flicked his wrist, and three bushes appeared in front of them, a sharp branch cut the ropes and he spoke, "Eat, you three need to keep your strength up."

Kiba looked at Naruto with confusion, "But sensei said…" Naruto cut him off before he could finish.

"Kakashi said that I wasn't allowed to feed you anything from the bento, he said nothing about growing a bush with food on it. Now eat…"

Sakura hmphed and said with disdain dripping from her voice, "I don't need a dead last to fee meOOPRMPH." Naruto grabbed a pear that he had grown and shoved it, large end first, into her mouth.

Naruto shook his head, "Man, do you always complain?" Naruto sat down and opened the bento…and he quickly pushed it to the side and grabbed an apple off of the bush in front of Kiba.

Kiba frowned and whined, "Hey, that's mine." Naruto finished the apple and threw the core at Kiba.

"I grew it…its mine." he took a pear from Sakura's bush, "Deal with it."

"WHAT DID I JUST TELL YOU FOUR?!?!?!" Kakashi suddenly appeared in front of them and shouted.

Naruto, unfazed by the killing intent answered, "Feeding my teammates, you didn't say a damn thing about not feeding them; you only said don't give them anything from the bento."

Kakashi looked at Naruto, "Is that your excuse?"

Naruto bit into a peach he had grown on Sasuke's bush, "Pretty much…" he tossed a pear at Kakashi, "There you go."

Kakashi caught the pear…and gave them an eye smile, "Then…you all pass."

(Same speech as in canon, minus Naruto shouting how he will be on the memorial stone)

Naruto stood up and brushed himself off, "Well…if anybody needs me, I will be at my house. Ask Tsunade Oba-san for directions."

Kakashi waved his hand…then noticed the uneaten bento, "Hey Naruto, why didn't you eat the bento, I made it myself."

Naruto sighed and walked over to the bento. He then walked over to Kakashi, "Because…your food sucks!!!" he opened it, to reveal what looked like pre chewed dog food and raw fish eggs and…was that a tendril, "A pile of junk that looks like it was pulled out of a toiletry system does not count as food, who taught you how to cook?!"

Kakashi scratched the back of his head, "Uhm…I kind of don't know how to cook."

…

…

…

Naruto slapped his face, 'If this is my sensei…we are doomed.'

Two Weeks Later

Naruto was gritting his teeth as he walked into the mission hall with Tora, the demon cat in a cage he made from his Mokuton abilities…and inside the room was the daimyo's wife.

As soon as she saw Tora, she shouted, "Oh, my wittle Tora-chan!" she ran over and opened the cage before she scooped the cat in her arms, "Oh mommy missed you so much." she began to squeeze the cat extremely tightly before she paid for the mission and left.

Tsunade sighed and looked at the mission scrolls, "Okay, so for d-rank missions we have cleaning out the gutters, walking the Inuzuka dogs…"

"Tora!!!" Tsunade cringed as she heard the daimyo's wife scream.

"Or you could…CRASH!" she looked up to see a large hole in the wall surrounded by tree roots, and heard Naruto shouting out things that would make a sailor blush.

Ten minutes later, Naruto came walking through the hole in the wall with Tora in one hand, and the daimyo's wife being lead into the room by the other. He turned towards the daimyo's wife and pointed to the cat, "This, is how you pet a cat…" he gently set the cat up in a position that allowed it to be comfortable, and began to gently stroke its fur, "What you were doing, was pushing it closer to its last remaining life." he placed the cat in the woman's arms, "You try."

The daimyo's wife gently pet the cat, which purred as it nuzzled into her chest. The woman smiled and skipped out the room.

Naruto turned towards the others in the room…who were staring at him in shock, "What, if I had to catch that damn cat one more time I was going to feed it to a rhinoceros beetle."

Tsunade lightly chuckled, "Uhm, alright then…well for D-ranks we have…" Naruto cut her off.

"With all due respect Tsunade-sama, I think we have done enough D-ranks to qualify for a C-rank."

Iruka stood up, "Naruto, your team is not ready for a C-rank yet, and you need to have…" Naruto pulled out a shinobi hand book and looked inside.

"Konoha genin need to have a minimum of thirty-six completed D-ranks to qualify for a C-rank, Kiri requires twenty, Iwa demands for fifty-six, Suna needs at least thirteen, and Kumo requires a bare minimum of twenty seven." he closed the book, "Thanks to my Kage Bunshin we have managed to complete forty-two D-ranks, and each of us have skills that are supplementary for at least a C-rank." he snapped the book shut, "I fail to see how we are not qualified for a C-rank."

Iruka wanted to retort…but could not find anything to disprove what Naruto said.

Tsunade sighed, "Alright, alright…we have one mission that you could go on." she pulled out a folder, "Three people from a foreign country came asking for bodyguards. They are willing to pay for a C-rank mission. They have been waiting a week to get a team." she smiled, "Are you all willing to accept this mission?"

Naruto smirked, "Yes we are Tsunade-sama."

Tsunade nodded and pressed a button on her PA, "Send them in…" the doors to the mission office opened and three people walked inside.

Naruto turned around and looked at who had come…and his eyes widened.

The three who walked in who saw Naruto also had their eyes widen. They all pointed at Naruto and shouted, "NARUTO?!"

Naruto stared at the three people in front of him…it was Tazuna, Tsunami, and Inari…
