A.N.: Hello readers. Thank you for choosing Hero of Legend. We left Naruto at the beginning of his training. Now we get back to him as he takes the test and get's assigned to a Jounin team. Unfortunately I needed more votes and I don't see anyone other than Toru so um I'll make the sensei Kakashi. Don't forget my love interest for Naruto poll. Also, reviews tend to inspire me to write much more much faster just saying. Now then let's begin. Also Itachi is still in the village, and will not betray his clan. The only one in the clan Itachi killed is Fugaku because Fugaku tried to kill Mikoto. You'll see why that's important. Sasuke is not a broody teme.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, but I'm writing my own manga. Keep a lookout.
Naruto woke to see white. "Am I in heaven?" He asked. "Not quite, Naruto-kun" A man said chuckling. "Jiji, is that you?" The old hokage smiled at him and nodded. "I guess I over did it with my training again." Naruto said with a sigh while he scratched the back of his head. The sandaime smiled and thought 'You grow more like your father every day Naruto.' The boy then suddenly paled. "Naruto, what's wrong?" "Iruka sensei's gonna kill me if I'm late and today's the day of the genin exams." Naruto jumped and then quickly put on the clothing that Toru-sensei had bought for him just last week. He now wore a long sleeve fishnet shirt with black pants and black gloves with metal plates at the back. On top of the mesh shirt he wore standard anbu armor complements of Toru. He also strapped a ninjato to his back. Then he put on a black anbu cape that had a tiger on the back. He then gave a quick wave to the hokage then prepared to jump through the window. As he jumped through the window he yelled, "Hey Jiji, let the doctors know I'm okay will you?" The Sandaime chuckled and then he turned to go defeat the most powerful foe he'd ever faced, paper work.
Naruto rushed over rooftops and then crashed through the window of the academy building falling right into his place next to the teams of his best friends, Shikamaru, Chouji, Kiba, and Shino. "Naruto, you're late and you broke the window." Iruka yelled using his big-head jutsu. "Well, you see Iruka-sensei, I was in the hospital and well I just woke up. I haven't even had breakfast." Iruka sighed and then nodded. "Alright, now when your name is called please come to the other room.
The testing had begun and several shinobi had become genin when Naruto's name was called. He walked to the back room and waited for his test. As he walked into the room he noticed the other shinobi, a man named Mizuki, giving him a glare. The looks no longer bothered Naruto, but he was unsettled that this man might have corrupted his training possibly killing him in the long run. He silently decided to get the man back. "Now then, Naruto please perform a bushin, a henge, and a kawarimi." Iruka said with a nod. Naruto gave a nod of acknowledgement and then he turned into a perfect copy of Iruka, which earned a nod from the real one. Then he used the kage bushin no jutsu to create 19 more copies of him. He then switched places with Mizuki causing Mizuki to fall on the ground and placing Naruto in Mizuki's seat. He then stood and walked back to his original spot while Mizuki glaring sat down in his seat. "Well Naruto, there is one more thing." Iruka tossed Naruto a headband, which he strapped around his head. "Go wait in your seat till called." Naruto gave a nod of acknowledgement then he went out and took a seat.
The exams ended soon after the last person to pass being Kiba. Then Iruka and Mizuki came out and gave a nod. Gesturing to the class to follow them, they walked to the Academy training grounds. Iruka turned and faced the genin. "Genin now is the time to display one jutsu of your choice. There are Jounin watching you and will decide who they want on their teams. You will perform these jutsu on either Mizuki or a specified target." The genin nodded and began. Sasuke used the grand fireball technique, Shino used his bugs to drain Mizuki's chakra, Ino took over his body, Shikamaru used his kage mane no jutsu to force Mizuki to slap Iruka, Chouji expanded his body, Sakura used a kunai trick to trap Mizuki, Hinata closed all of Mizuki's tenketsu with her gentle fist, Kiba hit Mizuki with his fang over fang technique, and then Naruto stepped in. He drew his ninjato and dropped into a stance and then looked at Iruka. "Um, Iruka sensei, how 'bout a spar between old Mizuki and me?" Iruka gave a nod of approval and Mizuki drew a kunai with a cold smile. Naruto then proceeded to move forward to strike his enemy. Mizuki parried with the kunai and struck at Naruto intending to cut his eyes out. Naruto jumped back and fell back into his ready stance holding one hand in front of him in a half ram seal with his palm facing Mizuki and with the other he held the ninjato so that the point of the blade pointed at Mizuki. "You're going to die demon boy." Mizuki yelled. The Jounin were about to strike Mizuki down but Naruto held his hand up and then he spoke, "He's mine." The Jounin all flashed down to stand next to Iruka. Naruto had been introduced to them all but he hadn't realized that Kakashi, Asuma, and Kurenai were the Jounin. Naruto resumed his previous stance and then struck again unleashing a fast combo of slices and cuts at Mizuki who blocked most of them but received a few cuts to his arms and legs. None of the wounds, however, were severe. Naruto then proceeded to pump chakra into his weapon and then sliced downward. The result was a flying crescent made of wind, fire, and lightning. "Rising sun ray." The crescent landed a harsh cut to Mizuki's torso. Naruto then proceeded to tackle Mizuki to the ground holding him down using his knee. He then brought his arm up and stabbed downward landing a cut to Mizuki's cheek. He brought the weapon up again and placed it in front of Mizuki's nose exactly at the bridge. Naruto stood up and walked away. Mizuki stood up and tried to strike Naruto down but as he moved to jump he heard the sound of thousands of birds chirping. The last thing Mizuki saw was Kakashi Hatake, ramming a lightning hand through Mizuki's heart. "Sorry, but he was aiming to kill a Konohagure shinobi." Iruka nodded then he smiled. "Genin of Konoha, congratulations. Dismissed." The genin dispersed smiling except for Naruto who gave a sigh and began a long walk home. "Naruto." Came the voice. A soft feminine voice came from his right. He then drew his ninjato again and turned just in time to block another ninjato. He saw the anbu Tora member with Neko behind him. "Hey there Tora- sensei, Neko-chan." Naruto said. The anbu members grinned and backed up. Neko lifted her mask slightly and gave Naruto a kiss on the cheek. "Congratulations, Naru-kun." She whispered in his ear. Naruto blushed at his nickname causing Tora to chuckle again. Tora then proceeded to toss Naruto a book and a brand new ninjato. "Its blade is eerie and unique. Also helps in assassinations." Tora said by way of explanation. Naruto drew the blade to find a pitch black blade and an obsidian tsuba. "Thanks." They gave a nod then Neko spoke up again, "Ne, Naruto, we'll see you tonight then we have a mission." "Yeah, see you guys later. Yugao- Chan, make sure Tora-sensei doesn't kill himself." Yugao gave a giggle and then kissed him once on the cheek. "Come on Tora let's go." She said. As they began to leave Naruto yelled after them suddenly, "Don't do anything inappropriate. I'm not ready for nephews and nieces yet." He saw the back of their necks and their ears get red and laughed.
The next day, they all went to the academy again to receive their team assignments. (TEAMS SAME AS IN MANGA). The team 7 sensei showed up three hours late and told them to go to the roof. Once they were there, he had them to go to their training grounds.
This is another filler chapter. But the next chapter's going to be the first fight scene. Also PLEASE LOOK AT THE POLLS THEY ARE IMPORTANT. ESPECIALLY IF YOU WANT SAKURA TO DATE NARUTO! THANKS!
