What if Naruto had a hidden power that came to be when he fought Mizuki, a bloodline he never knew of? Then he would be known as the Kaze no Arashi, the Wind Storm!

Kaze no Arashi
Chapter 8:
The Week before the Exam!
Naruto huffed out air as flickers of purple flames danced on the fingers on his right hand and flickers of blue flames were dancing on the fingers of his left hand. He grinned in triumph as he snickered, moving quietly to his teacher.
His teacher was the Gama Sennin Jiraiya, who was looking at all the beauties in the hot springs, giggling perversely as Naruto unknowingly was behind him.
Five Elements Seal! Naruto rushed his hand into Jiraiya, who was shocked by the thrusting hand. He turned just to see Naruto, grinning devilishly at his sensei before shoving another hand onto Jiraiya! Five Elements Unseal! Jiraiya was pushed back a tiny bit before looking at his grinning apprentice. "Well, Ero-sennin, what do you think?"
Jiraiya smiled and rubbed the boy's hair affectionately. "Well done, gaki! You've completed seal and how to unseal it in case you meet a ninja that knows that technique and uses that technique against you. Now we can focus on something way better!"
Naruto looked excited at his sensei, jumping up and down. "What's next! What's next? What's next?"
Jiraiya pulled out a scroll and a set of ink and a feather pen. "Calligraphy!" Jiraiya exclaimed as everything went quiet quickly afterward.
"What?" Naruto yelled in rage at his teacher and pointed a finger at him. "That's not exciting at all, Ero-sennin! What's exciting about writing?"
Jiraiya was fuming, "You insolent gaki, how dare you call writing not exciting? Writing is my passion!"
Naruto had a dead-pan look on his face, "I thought peaking was your passion, pervert…"
"I'm a super pervert, not a pervert! I told you this already, kid!"
"Is there really a difference?" Naruto sweat-dropped at the Sennin, who looked like he was going to blow his top, as he said these words.
"A big difference," the Toad Sage yelled angrily at his disciple.
"Anyway, how are you a writer?"
Jiraiya pulled out a book that read Icha Icha Paradise on the cover and Naruto's face grew twisted at the book. "This is the masterpiece of literature that I write! This is what I live for!" he laughed out loud to the world.
"That…" Naruto said, shaking and pointing at the book Jiraiya held.
"Oh, so you know of this book! Well, it is popular! Now bow and apologize to you mighty teacher, gaki! You now understand that I'm a literature god!"
"That book is nasty! No wonder you wrote, Ero-sennin! Only you would think of that kind of trash!"
"How dare you insult my masterpieces, you gaki! I think I won't train you now!" Jiraiya started to turn away.
"Wait! That Icha Icha Paradise is pretty awesome. It's like the gift of Kami!"
"I hate rude men more than anything! Compliments will not get you anywhere!" Jiraiya reared back at the boy. "I am a Sennin! You'll have to try better than that!"
Looks like I have no other choice… Naruto thought seriously as he made a handsign. I'll have to use that technique…
Jiraiya looked at the boy's seriousness and knew something was coming as he secretly smirked. Heh, show me what you've got, Naruto…
Sexy Technique! Smoke appeared around Naruto as Jiraiya wondered what this technique was.
"How do you like me now, Jiraiya-sama?" A female with blonde hair styled into two pigtails and beautiful cerulean pools as eyes spoke as her body was covered by a cloud of smoke.
"I love you!" Jiraiya exclaimed as the female had a deadpan expression.
He's such an idiot… The female Naruto thought as Jiraiya was in heaven, in nirvana.
"What jutsu is this? You're a genius kid!" Jiraiya exclaimed happily.
Normally, Naruto would be happy at being called a genius but this time was one where he didn't want to be the genius Jiraiya thought he was.
The female Naruto still had that same expression on her face. "I call it… Sexy Technique!"
"What creativity! You're a genius kid! Genius!" Naruto was sweat-dropping now at Jiraiya proclaiming he was a genius. I feel all adults are very weak against this jutsu… He remembered how he got many others with this technique.
Naruto turned up the juice as he put a finger on his lips, only they were the lips of his female transformation, and sparkling diamonds appeared around 'her' as 'her' eyes were that of a puppy's eyes, innocent and cute. "So you'll help with my training?" The voice has cute and attractive as it got Jiraiya under their spell.
"Yes, but there's one condition…" Jiraiya spoke as the feminine Naruto upped the charm.
"What… condition…" the female Naruto asked as the bloody nosed Jiraiya turned and then looked back at his student with a perverted look on his face.
"You have to stay like that the entire time we are training." Once those words were uttered, Naruto stopped the jutsu, glared at his sensei and their fighting resumed.
"I knew it, you pervert! You won't train me at all!"
"I told you already, gaki! I am a super pervert!"
"Just shut up and teach me!"
"How dare you talk to me like that, you baka! You don't know what I'm capable of!"
"Right back at ya, Ero-sennin!"
"Don't call me that, gaki! To you, it's the Gama-Sennin Jiraiya-sama!"
"Oh yeah, I'll worship you, great Gama-Sennin Jiraiya-sama." The genin's words laced with sarcasm.
"That's more like it! Wait… How dare you use sarcasm on me! I'll teach you a lesson, gaki!"
"Bring it on, Ero-baka!"
Jiraiya rushed at Naruto who did a handsign. Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!
Thousands of Naruto's surrounded Jiraiya who was surprised a little and he smirked. The boy's pretty good with shadow clones, eh? "Show me what you got, gaki!"
Naruto and his clones grinned devilishly and made a handsign. "You asked for it, ero-sennin!" Harem Technique! Puffs of smoke filled the air around the two shocking Jiraiya wondering what was happening.
"Oh, Jiraiya-sama, we love you!" Jiraiya was in heaven. He was surrounded by thousands of female Narutos. He couldn't take all the sexiness and ended up passing out via a nosebleed and held a perverted grin on his face.
All the clones vanished to reveal a male Naruto glaring at his teacher. "That's what you get ero-sennin!"

I wonder what the village of Konohagakure is like. A sand kunoichi with four blonde pigtails thought as she held a giant fan on her back.
The boy beside her had a weird cat-ear hood over his head as face paint covered his face and a cylinder-like shape was wrapped in wrapping that were like bandages. He had a grin on his face. "'Ey, Temari! Remember the mission!"
The blonde kunoichi, then remembered. Right, Kankuro is right. I can't forget about the mission.
"If any of you forget the mission," spoke a redhead with a gourd on his back, "I'll kill you!"
The two shivered. Gaara's creepy.
"Alright," their sensei, Baki, spoke, as his turban blocked the left part of his face, "let's get going!"
"Right, Baki-sensei," Kankuro and Temari replied as they raced toward Konohagakure, home to the Chunin Exams.

A man appeared with snake-like eyes and long black hair. He suddenly looked at the genin before him. Kinuta Dosu, who had bandages around his head except his left eye and an amplifier on his right arm, was in the lead, his snake-like scarf blowing in the wind. Abumi Zaku was next with his smirk in place, his spikey black hair being held in the air. Lastly, Tsuchi Kin, a kunoichi with long black hair that flowed in the breeze, her eyes coals like Sasuke's.
The snake-man chuckled darkly, "Time to go."
"Alright, Lord Orochimaru." The three said in unison as they ran toward Konohagakure.
Orochimaru chuckled even more. Let's see if you're ready for me, Uchiha Sasuke-kun… Sarutobi-sensei…
The four rushed forward, leaving the village of Otogakure in the dust.

I can feel it… I've gotten stronger… Sakura thought, huffing and smiling at what she had done.
By looking at books at the library, she found out with intense chakra control, the Legendary Sennin Tsunade was able to focus chakra into her hands in order to produce monster strength. She also used chakra control to use medical ninjutsu.
What Sakura had done was pounded a tree down with a few blows. It wasn't as strong as Tsunade's strength, but it definitely rivaled Might Gai, the best taijutsu expert in Konohagakure. Sakura also used the books to learn medical ninjutsu and found it to come easy to her, enabling her to heal weak wounds and cuts easily.
She sat on the grassy ground and relaxed as her body felt weak from all the chakra she used.
Wait til you see what I can do, Sasuke-kun… Naruto…
XXX
Sasuke flashed through handsigns, Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!
The giant fireball flew above the water until it vanished into small embers and Sasuke huffed out his breath, losing his Sharingan from the amount of chakra he used training; his coal eyes replacing them for now. Sasuke glared as he sat on the deck above the pond that he trained on. He remembered Naruto and his goofy smile… How he hated that carefree smile… What did Naruto know about him?
I need to get stronger… Sasuke thought as he looked at the pond, imagining his older brother, Itachi's face in place of where he saw his own. Or I won't be able to kill… him…
Sasuke glared at the image before kicking it, causing the water to ripple and the image to disappear.

A girl with brown hair styled into two buns twirled a kunai around and looked at her two male teammates with a smirk as one of her teammates with a bowl-cut hairdo spoke. "Did you hear that all three rookie teams are in the Chunin Exams this year?"
The kunoichi laughed as she threw her kunai hitting the target while grabbing another and twirling it as well. "No way! It must be some competition between some stubborn jounins to see which team is better!"
"I don't think so," said the dude with a bowl-cut, showing that he was wearing a green spandex suit. "It seems that three of them are students of Hatake Kakashi of the Sharingan."
The other boy had long dark hair and eyes of the Hyuga, smirking confidently, "Sounds interesting…"
"But in the end," spoke the girl as she threw the kunai at the target again, showing tens of kunais on that single target.
"You have to feel sorry for them when they face their fate." The Hyuga boy finished for the girl, smiling at what competition he could face.

Naruto began to make seals that he attached to his kunai and shuriken. He had come far in this week of training, being able to make paper seals of different kinds like explosive tags or chakra suppression seals. He learned these from Jiraiya and now kept a pouch of blank paper tags and a pen with ink with him wherever he went. He went as far as packing a few extra sets of ink to use just in case. The boy still had Kushina's personality but also held the seriousness and thinking of Minato.
He was a hybrid of the two, retaining qualities of both.
The boy also learned Wind Release: Great Breakthrough during the week. The training wore him out. He was told by Jiraiya that he would learn how to summon toads, which got Naruto excited, after the first part of the exam.
The genin put his headband on his forehead and smiled at his reflection. He then looked at the framed pictures, one of him and ojii-san, the other of him and Iruka-sensei, the next one held Naruto and the rest of Team Seven and the last one had the smiling faces of his parents. He smiled back at them. I'll make you proud, tou-san, kaa-san!
Naruto then grew a serious expression, decided against his orange jacket since it was cool out and his jacket might make him hot so he wore a navy blue Uzumaki spiral shirt with his dark orange pants. He rushed out of his house, locked the door and rushed out to the place where the Chunin exams were being held, determined to show the world the Kaze no Arashi!

Konohamaru heard it from his grandfather as Moegi and Udon followed him, all of them wearing a pair of goggles. They ran throughout the village, trying to find their idol, Naruto, only to find a cute kunoichi with long pink hair flowing down her back.
"Hey, miss!" They exclaimed, catching the girl's attention as she turned to them.
They're academy students… I wonder what they want. Sakura thought as she smiled at them kindly. "Hello, what are you guys looking for?"
"Do you happen to know where boss is?" Konohamaru asked and Sakura noticed him as the Hokage's grandson.
"Boss? Who's this boss you are speaking of?" Sakura asked the academy students.
"Konohamaru means to speak of Uzumaki Naruto-san." Udon, the glasses-wearing one spoke to Sakura, whose eyes widened when she heard her teammate's name.
"Naruto is my teammate. Today is actually the day of the Chunin Exams so he should be coming this way soon or he might be up ahead."
"Alright, thanks, lady!" Konohamaru yelled happily as he ran off while Udon and Moegi said their goodbyes.
Sakura waved goodbye and smiled at them and in thought. I wonder how Sasuke-kun and Naruto will react when they see my skills. Then, Sasuke-kun might want a date with me! She, after all, still crushed on Sasuke. She, then, heard a familiar voice scream and knew that it was Konohamaru. She put chakra into her feet and dashed in that direction to see two Sand shinobi, one holding Konohamaru by his scarf.
"I hate little kids like you…" Kankuro growled at the boy that ran into him. Moegi and Udon were pleating that the ninja would let their friend go. "Time to learn your lesson, kid!" He pulled back a fist and was about to punch the boy until he felt a presence before him that set Konohamaru down and grabbed him by his neck and lifted him up.
Kankuro looked to see a blonde shinobi with a Konoha headband on his forehead. Temari stared in shock at the boy. How could this boy pick Kankuro off the ground?
The boy had cold, ocean eyes as he looked at the puppet master. "You shouldn't go picking fights with academy students when you can punch a genin like me!"
Sakura gasped and smiled widely at the blonde's appearance, "Naruto!"
Naruto set Kankuro down who glared at the boy and set his cylinder of wrappings on the ground before them. He glared at Naruto and then smirked. "I'll show you how I fight punks like you Konohagakure ninja!"
"Kankuro, don't!" Temari warned but Kankuro ignored her.
"Prepare yourself, punk!" Kankuro was about to reveal his puppet until a rock hit his hand, stopping him. He winced and glared at the raven-haired ninja in the tree. "More punks!"
"Don't make me come down there and destroy you!" Sasuke glared at the puppet master, crushing the remaining rock in his hand.
Kankuro reached for his puppet again only to hear a dark voice. "Kankuro, stop it." This shocked everyone there as they saw a red-haired shinobi in the tree. "You're an embarrassment to our village."
Kankuro shook a little. "Gaa..ra…"
Sasuke was surprised and shock a little himself. He snuck there with skill of Kakashi-sensei…
"Starting a fight and losing control of yourself, how pathetic, Kankuro. Why do you think we came to Konohagakure?" Gaara said calmly.
"Gaara, they started it and…" Kankuro said pointing at Konohamaru and Naruto.
"Shut up…," Gaara spoke deadly and calmly, "or I'll kill you."
Kankuro shook uncontrollably in fear, "I'm… I'm… sor…ry…"
"I am too… Gaara," Temari spoke as well.
Gaara looked at Sasuke and, then, at Naruto, "Sorry to you guys." He began to vanish. The blonde was able to catch Kankuro off guard and pick him up while the other one was able to hit Kankuro with that rock. They're both good…
He must be the leader of the group… Sasuke thought looking at him before lowering from the tree and landing by Naruto.
"It looks like it's almost time for the exam to begin… Let's get going…" Gaara said as he turned away.
"Wait," Sasuke said causing the Sand shinobi to turn, "what's your name?"
Temari blushed, thinking he meant her, "You mean me?"
"No," Sasuke said rudely, "the guy with the gourd on his back."
Gaara loocked at him before speaking calmly, "Sabaku no Gaara…"
"Uchiha Sasuke…" Sasuke replied, smirking at the red-head.
"Looks like I'm next huh," Naruto smirked, approaching the Sand genin.
Temari looked closely at the blonde and blushed lightly. He's pretty cute as well…
"I'm Uzumaki Naruto," Naruto said, careful not to reveal his identity like he did to Zabuza back at Wave. He pointed at Temari, who blushed at the attension. "Now you."
"Sabaku no Temari." Temari said blushing lightly as Naruto smiled back at her.
"And I'm Sabaku no Kankuro!" Kankuro said confidently at Naruto.
Naruto stared at him blankly, "I didn't want your name, but okay, makeup boy…"
Kankuro glared at the Uzumaki and barked out, "It's war paint!" Temari laughed at this while Gaara just stood there.
"Uzumaki Naruto, huh…" Gaara said staring at the whiskered ninja. "I'll remember your name."
"I'll remember yours too, Sabaku no Gaara and also, you Sabaku no Temari,: Naruto said causing temari to blush again.
"You as well, Uchiha Sasuke…" Gaara said calmly before they turned and left. "Let's go…"
Sasuke smirked, "Let's get going, Naruto, Sakura."
"Right, Sasuke-kun!" Sakura rushed toward him while Naruto said goodbye to Konohamaru and his group. "You coming, Naruto?"
Chunin Exam, here I come! Naruto thought as he smiled at his teammates and rushed forward. "Yeah, I'm coming!"
The sound ninja stayed in the tree, watching Team Seven head to the exam while Dosu spoke, "So he's our target, Uchiha Sasuke…"
