A/N: If I hadn't mentioned it before HEN is Hostile Entity Neutralizer aka non human beings that are aggressive are taken out by this squad in secret.
"His teacher must be proud. I'd like to see the look on his face while he watched this." Kagome said, glancing over at Izumo and Kotetsu.
I'm telling Iruka, you jerks.
Izumo frowned at her, but Kotetsu ignored her. "That kid is interesting." Kotetsu said and Izumo stared at the two fighters.
"The Shadow Clone Jutsu is a Jonin level technique. To think he could use such a Jutsu..." Izumo said and Kagome blinked.
"Who knows how this'll turn out?" Kotetsu added and Kagome smiled.
They were here to cheer him on, and also up his popularity. They purposely sat among civilians and ninja alike to seem surprised and amazed by the boy.
"There is still only one real one, after all." Neji said, more to himself than Naruto.
"Heh! Don't be acting tough!" All the Naruto said in unison. Kagome grinned. Truly, this was going to be good. Naruto already exceeded Neji's expectations of him.
"If you're going to come, then come." Neji demanded and Kagome nearly jumped as Tenten spoke up, proudly.
"It's pointless. In front of that Hyuuga's defense, it's not just all attacking." Tenten said, as if she were somehow responsible for this. Kagome raised an eyebrow, but didn't say a word.
"Oi!" The Naruto were taking turns to speak now, one by one. "Don't." One said, taking a battle stance. "You." Another said, stepping forward. "Underestimate." The next two split this word, each getting into different battle positions. "Me!" The final one said, lifting his chin proudly.
Kagome almost giggled. He was a showy boy, that was for sure.
