Naruto had learned a lot from Sarutobi. During the one year he was trained by Jiraiya as well. He was low Anbu and would have been higher if he had battlefield experience. "You did well Naruto-kun," said Sarutobi. "Now it's time to make friend in the academy."
"I understand," said Naruto. "Thank you for everything."
"The New Year started already and I shall place you with the graduating class," said Sarutobi.
"Thanks you Hokage-sama," said Naruto.

Next day Naruto at age 6 and a half was walking to the academy. He got to the building and walked in. His room was 307. "I guess third floor seventh room," said Naruto to himself. Getting to the room he knocks.
In the room was a brown haired chunin. "Alright we have a new student joining us today. He skipped two grade to join us so please welcome your new classmate."
Naruto walks in. "Greetings I am Naruto Uzumaki."
"He is only six,Iruka-sensei," said a student in the back.
"Six and a half," said Naruto.
"You don't look like much," said another student.
"I can take most of you on due to your lack of training," said Naruto.
"Alright," said Iruka. "Let's settle this outside in sparring match."
A black haired youth stood up. "I would be honored Uzumaki-san in a bout," said the young man.
"Very well Itachi," said Iruka.

Naruto and Itachi stood opposite each other. "Try to go easy on him," said Iruka.
"That will not be needed Iruka-sensei," said Naruto. "In battle field the enemy will not hesitate to use full power."
"Very true," said Iruka. The respect for the blond grew. "The rule are the academy three and blunt kunai and shuriken to stimulate real weapons."
The one to get what I perceive a kill shot will win," said Iruka. "Fight."
Naruto flips back throws and kunai making Itachi dodge. Spinning in the air he blocks a kick from Naruto, but despite his small size, Naruto send Itachi flying back by the power. It was awe inspiring.
"Impressive," said Itachi. "This might be the challenge I am looking for."
Naruto throws five blunt kunai prompting Itachi to deflect them his own kunai. Throwing his head back Naruto almost nicks him. "So close," said Naruto
Itachi starts a slight retreat to gain distance. He sees a kunai where Naruto before his attack. "Substitution with the kunai he threw" he thought. "He is past genin with skill."
Itachi goes through hand seal and form a clones. The three charge Naruto. Naruto goes for the one he know is real. The two lock fist close quarter combat. Punch and kicks were thrown as the two proved evenly match.
The student were shocked at the skills. "He matching Itachi," said a female with brown hair and red mark on her cheek.
"Hana," said a male student. "What is your take on this?"
"I was expecting a victory for Itachi," said Hana. "Not slug fest."
Naruto was sent back by a kick followed by Itachi charging him. Getting his barring Naruto rushes Itachi and the two students slash at each other on vital points with their blunt kunai. "Draw," said Iruka.
"Both have landed potential fatal hit, it is a tie," said Iruka.
Itachi and Naruto bow to each other and shake hand. "You fought Naruto," said Itachi.
"Thanks," said Naruto.

After the spar it was lunch time and Itachi saw Naruto eating by himself. "Naruto, why are you here?" asked the black haired Uchiha.
"No spaces to sit," said Naruto.
"You don't if I eat with you?" asked Itachi.
"Pull up a bench," said Naruto. The two eat in silence. Naruto broke it. "Have youi unlocked you Sharingan?" asked Naruto.
"A year ago," said Itachi. "You are skilled for someone of your age."
Hana walks up. "Itachi-kun, you did a good job with spar," said Hana. "You also Naruto."
"You're an Inuzuka?" asked Naruto.
"Yes," said Hana.
"Did you get your partner yet?" asked Naruto.
"I did but I can't bring them to school," said Hana
"You have more then one, that is rare," said Naruto. "You must unique and skilled."
"They bonded with me instantly. They're huskies."
"I hope to meet them," said Naruto.
"Mom always wanted to bring my friends over," said Hana. "I should ask her."
"It's a problem, I don't want to impose," said Naruto.
Hana, I will like to spar with you and you partners when able," said Naruto You are stronger together then separate."
"You are very smart Naruto," said Itachi. "The Inuzuka rely on the pack mantel and bond with friends and family to get stronger."
"I read a lot about the clan of Konoha," said Naruto.
The three talked for bit until lunch break ended.
Iruka was looking at his class. "Alright, we will be talking about the Nara clan. Does anyone know their bloodline?"
Itachi raised his hand. "They are manipulators of their own shadows," said the Uchiha.
"They also known for their intelligent, battlefield tactic and medicines," said Naruto.
"Very good you too," said Iruka. "Now then, what other team up with them?"
Naruto raises his hand. Team are based on Ino, Shika, Cho formation," said the blond. "The Yamanaka , to gather info. While the Nara hold them in place with their shadows and Akimichi to kill them with multi size jutsu."
"That is right," said Iruka amazed the blond knowledge. "I want you to write three pages on a clan of you choosing. The only rule is, it can't a clan you hail from."
Naruto turns to Hana. "I can do one on your clan?" asked Naruto. Hana smiles.
"My mom should not have a problem with it," said Hana. "I will ask."

Hana , and Naruto was walking to the Inuzuka compound. Mom I'm home and I brought a friend over.
A feral looking female walk into the foyer. Naruto was nervous due to people not liking him. "Hana, how was school and introduce me the blond child."
This is Naruto Uzumaki," said Hana.
Kushina's child," thought the feral lady. "Nice to meet you Naruto."
"You too Tsume-sama," said Naruto.
"He was transferred to our class today and we were given a report about a clan. I was wonder if he do the report on our clan?" asked Hana.
"I would be honored," said Tsume. "You can interview after looking at some history of our clan."
"Hana, please take him to the library of our record and histories," said Tsume.
Hana motions Naruto to follow her.

Naruto was reading the history and founding of the Inuzuka. "I am impressed, your clan signed a contract with Inari," said Naruto.
"Our founding clan head actually used Kitsune in battle," said Hana. "We had to diversify so he allowed bonding with any type of canines."
"Intriguing," said Naruto. "A few hounded years later your clan was one big ten clans to join in charter of the village."
"That is right," said Hana. Naruto looks through the scroll and is amazed at the clan that was underrated.
"This is just as good the Uchiha with the arrogance," said Naruto. "I see Itachi is the exception."
"Why thank you Naruto," said Tsume as she walk into the room. "I have some dinner ready, if you want to stay Naruto for dinner I saved a place for you."
"I appreciate it," said Naruto.
Naruto was eating with Hana, Tsume and a young boy Naruto's age with brown hair. "Naruto this is Kiba," said Tsume.
"Pleased to meet you," said Naruto. The dinner went off without problem

The year came and gone for Naruto. He was bored out of his mind due to being taught this and more by Sarutobi and his other teacher. They were heading to the exams. Naruto turned to Itachi, who he formed a friendly rivalry despite Naruto being younger by 6 years and Hana who Naruto had full respect for. "Itachi, this is it," said Naruto. "I am going to ask to spar width you for the final exam."
"We will see which of us is the best, may the best man win," said Itachi.
Boys," said Hana. "You two are at 50 win and losses each."
"So this is determine the winner," said Naruto. "No pressure Itachi."

Iruka was happy and proud to see the students he has had, take the test. "First is the written test," he said as the test is handed out.
"Next is the Ninjutsu portion of the test," said the brown haired teacher. Going through the student. He get to I and call Hana. She goes in the back and walks out smiling. Next he goes through more student as he gets to Uchiha Itachi who goes in the back a walks out with a small smile. Naruto turn came last. Naruto does as requested and pass with jutsu part.
"Finally taijutsu, I will be facing you in battle myself and judge you on how you did," said Iruka. "I did this because two of our student tore up the field in their last spar."
Iruka glares at Itachi and Naruto, each looked away whistling.
Many of them rarely trained and barley passed. Hana turn came. Iruka charges Hana forcing her to block his punch and she trips him. Iruka sees all he need passes her.
Itachi quickly disabled Iruka by hitting pressure points. On Naruto's turn, the blond sent Iruka flying with a charka enhanced punch knocking him out.
After waiting a few minutes Iruka get back up and passes Naruto. "The rookie of the year is Itachi with Naruto being dead last due to not attending three years. Hana is Kunoichi of the year," said Iruka. "Please come back next week for your assignment."

Naruto walks out with Itachi and Hana. "Let's celebrate our passing with some food," said Naruto.
"I can't Naruto father need me in a meeting," said Itachi.
I have to go and learned my clan jutsu," said Hana.
Oh okay," said Naruto with a downcast look. Walking in the village he sees Anko at the Dango place. "Anko."
The woman turn. "Well if it isn't my tease toy," she said as she notices the headband on his head. "You graduated. Congrats."
"It was not that hard, the standards fell," said Naruto. "Half of them failed the exam portion and many more will fail second test."
"So who do you hope to be on your team?" asked Anko as she offer a stick of sweet to Naruto.
"Itachi and Hana-chan," said Naruto.
"Hana-chan," said Anko. "Are replacing me." She started to sniffle.
Naruto shivered. "There are two you don't do to Itachi. Don't touch his pocky. Don't even joke about his girlfriend."
"Last time I took pocky. He came with intent to kill me," said Naruto. "Any way your sexier."
"That is sweet of you Naruto-kun," said Anko.
"I have to go home Anko-chan, see yea."
