"The Life of a Legend"

`Chapter 03`

He reached in front of everyone and greet them "hey everyone, it's good to see you all", "Nice trick brat, now are you ready for your test?" tsunade asked him. "I am born ready ba-chan, just bring it on" he replied with a confident grin.

"As you wish brat, now feel lucky as I am giving you one up, you can choose anyone you want to go up against" she told him which make him even more excited if it's possible, "well I choose kakashi-sensie, gai-san, asuma-san, kurenai-san and anko-san" he said shocking the hell out of all of them.

Everyone is looking at him as if he has gone senile while he just smiled innocently.

"Come on stop gawking and fight me, I don't have all day like you guys" naruto said in a cool manner breaking everyone out of the trance, "It's official now, he really have a death wish" Kiba yelled out loud animatedly.

As the five mentioned jounins stepped forward naruto backed away and stood cockily with a grin, the jounins look unimpressed but inwardly they are ready to react at a moment's notice coz they know better than to underestimate their opponent SPECIALY naruto who has title of the most unpredictable, cunning ninja ever.

Kakashi stepped forward pocketed his most precious book and lift his hitai-ate revealing his sharingan eye, "Well naruto too bad, m not taking any chances, not today"

"I m feeling lucky kakashi-sensie" naruto said with a cheeky smile while backing away further until his back met the trunk of a large tree in the sidelines of the clearing. Asuma and gai sprint forward passing Kakashi in order to attack the only genin of the rookie twelve but unfortunately the blond troublemaker have something different going through his head as he jumped just enough to place both his feet on the trunk of the tree then using his legs as spring also adding a noticeable amount of chakra in them to make him propel forward with enough force to pass the two sprinting jounins and came face to face with the masked jounins who watched him coming towards himself in slow motion thanks to his sharingan eye. Kakashi watched his blond haired student gather wind elemental chakra in his right hand just like rasengan while still hovering in mid air, but instead of the several directions like in rasengan, his wind chakra is spinning only in one direction giving it a big disk like appearance.

Naruto shoved the disk like attack at kakashi in downward direction, seeing this kakashi jumped backward avoiding the offensive move narrowly but coz of his sharingan he caught the knowing smirk which made its presence known through naruto's lips, kakashi cursed himself knowing that he is now the target of the well-known prankster of konoha.

Naruto hit his attack full force at the ground while his body is in upside down position resulting his move dispersing in form of the blunt wind bladed walls in all directions as he didn't want to cut his opponents in pieces, which cause the huge cloud of dust covering the whole clearing including the audience on the sidelines of the clearing.

Neji and hinata activated their byakugan while sasuke activated his sharingan but unfortunately they can't be able to see naruto which shocked them even more as they can even see through almost everything and also at long distance or in sasuke's case see the movement of chakra.

"What is happening there neji-kun/sasuke-kun?" sakura and tenten said at the same time can't be able to control their curiosity, but they were too tense to answer so hinata answered the question gathering as much confidence as she can while poking her forefinger together, with an embarrassed blush adoring her cute puffy cheeks, "so-ory s-sa-ku-ura-s-san b-b-but I-I Can-n't b-be ab-le to s-s-see an-y-thi-ing for s-som-e u-unkno-nown re-res-son"

"Unfortunately she is telling the truth, I also can't be able to catch his movement" sasuke stated shocking everyone even more.

"What have you teaching that boy you god-damn pervert?" tsunade asked her fellow sannin who in question just smile sheepishly. Her attention diverted as the cloud of dust begins to disperse.

As the dust cleared completely everyone saw that the blond knucklehead is nowhere to be found while anko, kurenai, asuma and gai are quite away from the position they were before which is caused by the wind attack and the masked jounin kakashi is lying on the ground since he was in mid air when the blunt winds hit him head-on, he quickly got up from the ground and searched for the chakra signature of the boy but can't ba able to found him which surprise him a lot.

In the sidelines everyone experiencing the same situation since they can't be able to find their favorite blond even tsunade is finding it quite difficult to believe.

"How can he hide himself from everyone so easily, jiraiya-sama?" shizune asked the toad sannin, curiosity getting the best of her.

"He is way more stealthier than you can think of, even I can't find him unless I m using my sage mode, as for how he do it…..well you can say that no one can make him tell anything if he don't want to" jiraiya answered with a sigh turning back to see what his apprentice is up to.

In the clearing all the jounins are tense since they don't know what the blond genin is up to now; they stood for almost five minutes not letting their guard down without any signs of their opponent, there were some rustles in the forest surrounding the clearing but no matter how much they try they can't be able to detect him.

Another two minutes later gai's patience runs out and he let his emotions get the better of him by screaming "COME OUT AND FACE ME YOU UNYOUTHFUL BRAT OR I'LL GONNA KICK YOUR LITTLE REAR END SO YOUTHFULLY THAT YOU…." but before he can complete his rant he heard whistling of a kunai and barely able to take a step back to dodge it, he then turn left from where the kunai came from to see nothing except trees.

As another kunai shot from the trees from his right, he quickly acted on impulse and run towards the place where the kunai got thrown from while dodging it at the same time, but unfortunately for him as he got in front of the tree from where the kunai come from, another kunai came towards him from above, he dodged it by stopping mid step but failed to notice the flash and smoke tag attached to it because of the rush which became the cause of his defeat as the tags activated right in front of his face and no one can be able to see what's happening to the famous taijutsu.

As the smoke and light cleared everyone got extremely shocked to the green beast tied with a very sharp ninja wire in a rather compromising position, he is facing his fellow jounins while his back is facing the tree he ran towards, he is a little bend forward and his legs also bend just enough so that his knees are hovering in the air with a wire going around the back of his knees and attached to the kunai in front of him which is lodged halfway in the ground so it won't come out easily, there is also a wire going around his neck and tied to the tree behind him causing him to only look forward, his arms are also bend with elbows tied with the same tree as his neck while hands are on the front, his waist is also tied with the ground below him and finally his foots are also tied to the tree behind him and… naruto is nowhere to be found.

In the sidelines everyone is too shocked to do or say anything except jiraiya who held a proud confident grin on his lips while also thinking how to make his apprentice teach him that technique so that he can use it for his so called research.

In the clearing now turned battle ground kakashi broke out of his stupor and rushed towards the bound gai but before he can reach a hail of kunai and shuriken came towards him at fast speed which he deflected by a pair of kunai in his hands, but as he finished deflecting or blocking all of them naruto popped out of the ground in front of him by using the head hunter jutsu and try to hit him with an uppercut which he dodged and hit the boy in chest with a punch which in question the boy blocked easily.

Kakashi failed to notice another naruto emerged from the ground behind him, who gathered wind chakra in his palms and hit kakashi on the underside of his knees resulting in dislocating both of his knee joints while the front one hit him in the chest with the same technique full force sending the injured jounin flying backward but they noticed the explosion tag at the ground between them too late as it got activate dispelling both of them indicating them as mere clones.

The three remaining jounins got shocked at the sheer display of tricks and their timings, Asuma rushed towards an injured kakashi cautiously don't want to get caught off guard like his fellow jounins, though this time instead of him naruto emerged from the ground in front of kurenai, she got startled a lot coz of the close proximity but before she can react at his sudden appearance he punched him full force sending her sailing through the air backward.

Seeing her friend got hurt anko charged at him in anger while sending various kinds of snakes from her sleeves by using hidden snake hands jutsu. Naruto, after quickly analyzing the situation quickly backed away and started making handseals then blew a stream of fire only large enough to burn all the snakes coming towards him, he then jumped over the furious anko who tried sweeping him off his feet, as he landed he quickly turned and throw some kunai then before she can completely block or dodge all the thrown weapons he rushed at her and engaged her in a fierce taijutsu battle shocking her a lot as he easily put her on the defensive.

Finally he ended it as two of his hidden clones popped out of the ground one kicking the back of anko's knees and placing a kunai on her neck while the other one restrained her hands to make sure she won't try to free herself. The original one turned to the remaining jounins, asuma and kurenai, and said in a cold cocky voice "it'll be good for everyone if you just yield, coz you guys are in no condition to fight me since I have two of yours team-mates life is in my hands while the third one is injured and in no condition to even stand"

Asuma and kurenai pocketed their weapons to show that they have given up and in response to that naruto released the caught jounins while on sidelines everyone was too shocked to move as to how easily naruto defeated five of the elite jounins of the village yet also haven't even showed his techniques properly.

Getting out of stupor tsunade rushed and also ordered her apprentices to follow her towards the injured jounins and heal them, while the others, especially sasuke turned towards the toad sannin to get some answers but he was long gone and casually talking to his apprentice who looks as cheerful as someone can be.

Naruto then turned towards his friends as they approach him and greeted them cheerfully, "Hey teme, hey guys how you doing?"

As he begin to chat with his friends tsunade came behind him and bonked him on his head and said, "What were you thinking while hurting your sensei that much you brat, now because of you he will be resting for almost a month"

In answer naruto smiled sheepishly and rub the back of his head, "Well, it's not my fault he underestimated me ba-chan"

Naruto turned towards sakura, his beautiful team-mate and the girl of his dreams who is done healing their sensei as much as she can and marching towards him, he opened his mouth to greet her but instead of greeting he got a very hard punch in the jaw which send sailing straight into the tree coz of the strength she gained from her training with the slug sannin and the current hokage.

He barely got up but sakura was already holding him by the collar of his shirt and start strangling and berating him for hurting kakashi.

After some little more drama everyone left except tsunade and jiraiya saying that he was still same idiot and never gonna change.

"I am sorry for sakura's sudden outburst naruto she shouldn't have done that, well anyway come to my office in three days to hear about the decision the council gonna make regarding your rank and I am really happy to see you after all those years" tsunade said to him while giving him a motherly hug, she then walked away to deal with her worst enemy.

Jiraiya leered at her old team-mate's lovely and shaped posterior then start walking away while mumbling about doing some research for his upcoming Icha Icha volume.

Naruto saw the toad sannin walk away leaving him alone yet again just like everyone, he slumped against a tree sulking.

'Why did she have to be so harsh with me? It's been five fucking years since she last saw me and all she can do is berate me and hit me'

He thought to himself, a tear threatening to fall from his eyes, wondering why is he still waiting for her.

'Well fuck her, I don't care anymore, I have other things to worry about then a damn girl who don't even like to say even a single nice word to him'

He got up and wiped the tears away from his eyes, and begin to walk towards his apartment to take a warm dip then some sleep so he will be at hundred percent for his training tomorrow.
