Sorry I haven't updated in weeks, but I had to deal with my Capstone among other things, and thank you guys for continuing to read this story, I will try to post another chapter by the end of this week, and on, possibly on Christmas Day. Chapter 10 starts now.

Wind in the night sky was gusty as Team 7 continued to find a Earth scroll, who didn't have a lot of luck, and earning a boring Naruto to complain every five minutes. Seeing that there were no one close by Sasuke used his hand to gesture for them to now take a break. Taking a big sigh, Sakura walked towards a close by tree and rested on it's treshold taking a small nap. Meanwhile, Sasuke couldn't just shake the feeling of Naruto so close to him and skills, why would a clanless person be able to rival a person of one of the most fear dojutsu in the world.

"This is nonsense.", he said in a whisper but Naruto seemed to have heard him.

"What's nonsense, Sasuke?", Naruto asked oblivious to Sasuke's growing anger towards him. Brushing it off Sasuke turned around and decided to wonder for a bit, but was stopped by Naruto's voice.

"Hey, what's the matter with you?!", Naruto asked as Sasuke turned around with a death glare directed to Naruto who was getting weak in the legs, but kept a strong face. gritting his teeth he lounged at Naruto and striked him in the face knocking him to a tree with Sasuke following up with his left arm pinning him to the tree, losing some air.

He opened his eyes to see Sasuke with his eyes red with his tomoes in both sockets. 'So he finaaly gotten both in each eyes huh?', Naruto thought to himself. Being interrupted from his thought gratitude of the Uchiha's powerful rib shot, making a trinkle of blood fall off out of the side of his mouth. Getting his strength back Naruto used the tree to hold his back towards it and lifted both his feet to kick him in the gut.

"What the hell! What are you doing teme?!", Naruto yelled waking Sakura. "I need to know...", Sasuke said as he instantly pulled a kunai from his pouch and dashed towards a confused Nartuo, who followed suit and drew his kunai, and clashed.

"What! Know what?!", the blonde said as he receive an elbow towards his chest, making him land on his back.

"Sasuke-kun...Naruto-kun why are you too fighting?", the pink brunette said with a whimpering voice. Naruto looked up at her and then back towards Sasuke.

"I need to know my limits!", Sasuke shouts at her prompting Naruto to recover back on his feet. Wiping the blood off his mouth, he glared Sasuke down.

"Now's not the time. If you really want to test yourself just wait until the exams are over, then I promised I will fight you.", Naruto said cooly, with Sasuke looking at him with a bland and emotionless face. After a few moments of silenced Sasuke spoked,"After the exams.", he said as he hopped onto a tree. But as soon as he was about to land a barrage of sand about 10ft tall tried to ensnare him but he easily avoids it. Naruto and Sakura shocked that a demonic aura was around the mysterious red-head.

"Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha... ughhhh... two birds in one stone...AAAAAAAAAAghhhhhhhhh!", he said as sand began to aim for Sakura, who Naruto called out for and tried to save.

"Sakura-channnnnn noooooooo!", Naruto yelled.

Some time has passed since the fight with Bacterian, and now that everyone was waiting for the two finalists to make a move, Goku and Jackie Chun. Nobody wasn't making a sound, as a small gust of wind blew past Goku started by using the afterimage technique to confuse the skilled man. Little did he know was that Jackie was already prepared for a maneuver such as this and disappeared knocking Goku down by using ki alone.

"Interesting you have some skills gramps.", Goku said as he recovered his footing jumping in his fighting stance again.

"Your not bad yourself, say who trained you?", Jackie asked a obvious question.

"My grandpa and Master Roshi.", he responded shocking the crowd on how he was trained by the strongest man in the world.

Nodding he dashed in a blur and punched Goku but he caught his attack and quickly sweep kicked Roshi making him fall, but using one hand, Jackie used his momentum to bring his right leg down onto Goku, but he deflected the kick with his left hand and elbowed Jackie in the stomach making him nearly fall out of bounce. Getting on one knee Roshi prepared to gather his ki for an attack.

"Hey kid if you trained with Roshi, then you must have known about the technique I gave him guidance for?", Jackie said as he cupped his hands together, making Goku go wide eyed in surprise.

"What? You can do it to?", he asked in surprised. Beganing the chanting, Goku started to get nervous at the predicament he was now placed in. Having no choice he did the same as the strange aged man.

"KAMEHAMEHAAAAAAAAAA!", they both yelled in unison, two bright blue beam connected and made and explosion knocking the plates off the ground, awing the audience. Cheers can be heard over the pulsing sound of energy colliding, Yamcha was in amazement on how much Goku have improved.

"Wow, what power, I didn't know Goku had this much energy in him.", Krillin said as Bulma held onto Yamcha's arm for support because of the earthquake like experience they were having.

After a few more seconds.

BOOM!

There was a mini mushroom cloud hovering around the arena, blocking everyone view. After the cloud disappeared, Jackie was the one standing with his shirt gone. On the other hand Goku was having trouble trying to stay on his knee. He looked a mess, his gi was turn over his right breast and his right pants leg was completely gone up til his upper thigh, bleeding at that.

The crowd gasp at what they were witnessing, a little kid surviving one of the worlds most deadliest techniques, to say that everyone was impressed was an understatement. They were in complete hypnosis.

'Intersting, Goku diverted my blast to recieve minimal damage, very smart, but in the end you given up the use of your right leg leaving you unable to walk.', Jackie thought and evaluated his pupil's leg. But to his surprised Goku was beginning to rise from the ground with high difficulty.

"I can't lose now heh...I have to... to make my master proud of me and win this tournament.", Goku said with a grin, earning an applause from the crowd, including his friends.

"While you do have fighting spirit you can't continue with only a broken leg and arm, if I were you I give up now, and try to improve myself to be an even better fighter.", Jackie said as looked at him more closely .

"Heh, true I might not be able to continue fighting but how about one more attack?", Goku said as he lifted his damaged right leg smiling. Shaking his head in a 'no' matter, he obliged.

They both pounced towards one another and delivered their attacks, Goku with a flying dragon kick and Jackie with a roundhouse kick.

WHAM!

After it was decided they both kicked each other and flew out of the ring crashing hard to the ground.

The winner was decided, although disappointed Jackie told Goku if he mastered his ki to a significant level he might've won, coming as a runner up Goku was offered $500,000 but he declined and gave it to his friends who gladly accepted. After he left the hospital Bulma treated Goku and company to a big dinner before Goku left to go back to Konoha. Saying goodbye to his friends he promises to come back in a while so that he can come and see his other friends. Goku asked if they wanted to come but they declined saying they couldn't get on the nimbus with him, saying they will come next time.

Soaring threw the clouds above Goku awaited his journey.

As Sakura was about to be hit Sasuke budges her out of the way and dodges the sand were as Naruto stopped his motion and gazed at the red head.

"So, you're gonna be the one I get to take down first? Okay then I need to my anger out on someone anyway.", Naruto said as he cracked his knuckles. Sasuke activating his sharingan, he got in his stance and waited for a signal to start.

As Naruto back flipped on to a tree he pushed himself off and yelled,"Shadow Clone Jutsu!", at that moment five Narutos poof into existence and charged the boy they recognized as Gaara. Nearing him, some sand came up, and knocked all of the clones down along with the real Naruto, into two trees getting stuck in the second. Sasuke ran through some hand signs and yelled,"Fire Style: Grand Fire Ball Jutsu!", which was unsuccessful, socking Sasuke.

"Is this the best you guys can do?! You two are pathetic hahahahaahahahahahahaha!", Gaara laughed crazily, scaring Sakura, who was just observing. Sasuke ran and tried to engaged in Taijutsu, which was tedious due Gaara's sand protecting him from every single blow.

'Damn how can someone be this damn strong?', Sasuke said as he regrouped on a branch. 'Long distance attacks don't seem to work and neither does close range, tsk', at this point I can't do anything but slow him down. He gazed at the forestry that Naruto was knocked into and was beginning to doubt whether he was alive or what.
'Where's that dobe when you need him?', he thought to himself.

"Heeyy! I'm not done Uchihaaaa!", Gaara yelled as sand began to form and a shape of a ball about the radius of the area they're in.

'This is not good Sasuke can't get close and Naruto is nowhere to be seen.', Sakura thought in a panic as soon as the sand came fling to Sasuke he braced himself from the inevitable. But at that moment Naruto, with a red cloak of chakra, generate off his body like fire, negated Gaara attack; red eyes with a slit, nails tuned into claws, and whiskers more feral in appearance Naruto looked like a demonic creature.

Sasuke and Sakura looked on in a frighten state at the mere presence of his being, however Gaara had that crazed smile on his face as his body was wrapped in his sand forming a sphere, blocking him from the outside.

Naruto, growling like a bloodthirsty beast, vanished, the next thing Sasuke and Sakura seen was Naruto helding Gaara to the ground, which from their view, looked as Naruto was about to pound him into oblivion, but was stopped by Sakura.

Naruto roared at Sakura, who was terrified, making her stumble to the ground as proceeded to punch in his face with tremendous force. Shaking the forest about 20 times, Naruto finally calmed down once he noticed that Gaara had turned into sand, making Naruto frustrated and losing conscious and falling into Sakura's lap.

'Naruto...what's happening to you?', thought Sakura as she caressed his face with tears in her eyes.

'So that Gaara guy sent a sand clone? But why did he leave this Earth Scroll? He must have had a reason for doing this. Arrg, and how and the hell am I going to avenge my clan if I can't even beat him, let alone that retardo Lee?', he kept arguing within himself.

Deciding that they should wait til Naruto woke up they decide to rest til Naruto was up and ready to go, concluding their night with Sasuke taking first watch.

As Goku arrived in Konoha, he notice that the ninja populace was shorter than usual, descending from Nimbus, he walked into the main entrance, only to see the regular guards sleeping on the job, smiling he proceeded to speak with the Hokage. As he was walking he pumped into the snake mistress, Anko.

"Hey bub, watch where you going you little boy.", she jumped on his case, earning a bewildered look from Goku.

"Huh, what are you talking about? I'm a martial artist and ninja.", Goku said cheerly as he pumped each fist in the sky. Anko blinking a few time looked at the tail on his back.

"Hey kid why the hell do you have a tail?", she asked as she knelt down to his level, inspecting it.

"Yeah but do..ugghhh.", Goku said but soon felt all his energy leave his body as he fell to the ground panting.
Anko grabbed his tail and started to rub it up and down like it was a, male stick, licking her lips.

"Hey brat, what do you use this tail for anyway? From what I can tell it seems to make you weak.", she asked after she released Goku who seemed fine now.

"I'm not sure but my grandpa said to not let anyone touch it, I'll forgive you this time since you didn't know. And to answer your question, I use it for balancing me and to take a bath with, but I didn't know it grew back so fast (laughs).", he said as his stomach growl. "Well, see you old lady.", he said as he began to run to the ramen shop Naruto took him to before he goes to the Hokage.

"Hey who are you calling old, you monkey humanoid freak! Get back here!", screamed running after the boy saying she's going to castrate him and shove his testicle to her snakes, all the while Goku laughed. Little did she know was that because of er running wildly, her trench coat was flopping everywhere, thus giving some lucky citizens a nice view of her wonderful round cleavage, having nosebleed also.
