Preparation for the finals
Naruto's P.O.V.
I hope Seth is okay I'm glad he won his match but I should check on him. I'm surprised Kody didn't go with him and decided to stay. Well on the bright side I have someone to keep me company. 1 hour later…
I can't believe it bushy brow lost to that guy. And he gave it his all he had but, he still lost. That sand guy is tough.
"Will the final contestants please step forward?" Choji jumped down and so did the final sound ninja jumped down as well.
Kody's P.O.V.
I was watching the show comfortably from the top of Naruto's head.
"Well let the 10th round begin!" The proctor said. "You can do it fatso!" I heard Ino yell I remember the first time I meet her. Just thinking about it makes me shiver.
3 days before the chunin exam…
"Hey Ino." Seth said as he walked into her family's flower shop. The pollen of all the flowers was irritating my nose putting me on the border of sneezing.
"Oh, hey Seth, Naruto. What are you two doing here?" I heard her voice respond as it came closer.
"I wanted you to meet my pet fox." Seth responded then I popped out of the backpack he was wearing.
"Aw he's so cute!" Seth was knocked over by Ino and I was trapped in the crazy ladies arms being squeezed to death. I was squirming around trying to break free I didn't want to bite her I managed to tickle her with my tail making her loosen her grip enough for me to be dropped.
"Hey!" She said as I scurried back into Seth's bag I was terrified of getting another hug from her.
"Ino don't do that please. Besides that not the only reason why I came here. I wanted to ask you if you could identify a few weird seeds a strange man gave me them said something about 'ethereal blooms' or something like that. Not sure what that is." he explained to her as he handed her the two white seeds that seemed to glow.
"Okay then I guess me and my family can check them out for you. Anything else?"
"I guess you can try to make more of them but, that's only if you please."
"Okay then. Is there anything else?"
"Nope that will be all. Also here." he ended the conversation and gave her a couple hundred ryo. "That should cover the care costs. Keep the change."
End flashback…
And choji is on the floor K. . "We have a winner Dosu Kinuta!"
"So what did I miss?" I heard Seth ask. Naruto turned his head making me look as well. "Seth what happened?"
"I apparently needed a chakra infusion. Something about the rate my body normally produces it being unstable at the moment. It hasn't affected me until now do to my chakra usually being at normal level or something like that. I wasn't really paying full attention to what they said." He said before he chuckled a bit.
"Everyone who won their match come down to the arena." the proctor ordered the three sand and one sound came down as well as 5 other Konoha ninja's excluding Sasuke.
"Okay everyone congratulations for making it this far you passed the third exam. The finals will be held one month from now." The hokage said. "Wait, why can't we just do it now?"
"Because many of you need to recover from your injuries. We also believe you may have used all your moves so this gives you time to come up with some new moves…" The hokage was stopped when someone whispered into his ear.
"Before I dismiss you I want you to take a single piece of paper from this box that Anko is going to walk around with." Everyone who was there took one.
"Okay now that everyone has one open them up and tells us what number you got starting from the far right." Everybody did.
"Okay that leaves 4 for Sasuke."
"I have a question. What are these numbers for?" Naruto asked. "Good question fishcake." Anko said
"Fishcake! Let me at her!" Naruto yelled while Seth was restraining him.
"Okay and done." Crash had said as he flipped a white board around revealing the matches: The first one was Naruto vs. Neji, the second one was Gaara vs. Sasuke, third was me v.s Kankuro who ever won that fight would have to fight Shino, the 4th match was the sound ninja Vs. Shikamaru who ever won that would fight Temari.
"Naruto." Seth said.
"Yeah?"
"When we meet in the final match let's give it our all not as enemies but friends who let a spar get out of hand."
"Yeah let's do it."
"Great."
"Now that your opponents have been decided, you are dismissed." the hokage declared before he left.
"Hey Crash." Seth and Naruto said
"Yes you two?"
"Can you train us?"
"I'm sorry I can't. I would if I could but I need to teach my nephew the family kenjutsu style it takes almost a whole month to teach another 2 to master and well if he doesn't learn it soon I fear he will seriously get hurt. I'm sorry also Kakashi will be teaching Sasuke. But be glad I have friend of mine who I asked to teach you."
"So who going to teach us?"
"It is I!" a third voice
Those two turn around.
"Hey you're that closet pervert!" Naruto said.
Crash had started to snicker a bit.
"What's so funny?" Ebisu asked.
"I knew you were a little perverted but I never thought I hear it put that way." Crash busted out laughing lightly.
