I don't own NARUTO
Naruto of the Seven Blades
Chapter 5 Chuunin exams begin, the forest of death
It was a peaceful morning on Konoha, the birds were chirping and the sky was blue and sunny.
"YOU ARE LATE" Was the greeting that received Kakashi from 2 of his students.
"Sorry guys but I had to pick up my father´s sword" Apologized the silver haired sensei.
"LI-huh?" His students looked confused and then looked at his back, there was the legendary sword of Hatake Sakumo.
"Yeah, I send it to be repaired, I don´t want to lose a skill that can become useful" Said the scarecrow 'And I would want to pass it on to one of you, after all, since that incident I can´t have kids anymore' Mentally added
His students nodded.
"Ok, today there will not be training-"
"And you make us wait for 3 hours here?" Shouted the aggravated blonde
"Here, these are chuunin exams application forms, I want you to think if you want to enter, there is no pressure, this is an individual decision, if you accept go tomorrow to the academy at 3 o´clock, ja ne" The teacher said and shunshined away leaving a bewildered team 7.
Next day at the academy entrance team 7 entered to register for the chuunin exams, they were looking for room 301, when they found it they also found another team being harassed by a couple of older gennin.
"Hey drop the genjutsu!" Said the showoff of team 7.
"Huh?" Said the blonde
"What are you talking about?" Asked one of the older gennin.
"Sakura with your analitical skills you should have perceived it too"
"Heh? Yes, we are on the second floor" Said the pink haired girl
And the older gennin dropped the genjutsu.
"Ok, you detected it, but it will not help you with this" Said one of the older gennin before attempting to kick Sasuke, who responded on the same way, but they were stopped by a green blur.
"Hey is not very youthful to attack a comrade" Commented the green gennin
Team 7 was very impressed bye the green clad gennin speed.
"Lee! What happened with hiding our strength?" Asked a girl with her hair combed on two buns.
"I'm sorry Ten-Ten" Apologized Lee
Ten-Ten sighed.
Lee saw Sakura.
"Hey you must be Sakura, be my girlfriend and I will protect you with my life" Declared Lee
Sakura saw him, his eyebrows that looked like huge caterpillars, his bowl haired cut and his green spandex "NO! You're lame"
Lee deflated. Neji saw Sasuke.
"Uchiha"
"Hyuga"
"Whats your name?" Asked the long haired gennin
"It's common courtesy to give your name before asking another's name" Answered Sasuke
Sasuke and Neji began a staring contest.
"Ah, nobody never asks my name" Said Naruto sulking
"Neji we should go now" Said the weapon mistress.
And everyone in the hallway felt a high killing intent, Neji felt it the most and after looking for the source he saw that it was Naruto.
Flashback
Naruto and Hinata were sparing while Haku saw them, Naruto landed a glancing hit on Hinata's shoulder and she yelped in pain.
"I'm sorry Hinata I didn't wanted to hurt you" Naruto apologized frantically.
"I kn-know Naruto-kun" Said the dark haired girl.
"Let's me see it Hinata-chan" Said the older girl.
Naruto turned so he gave them his back. Hinata took off her jacket and exposed the wound then Haku began inspecting her shoulder. Haku saw the wound, she recognized it from the Jyukken, but Hinata never used that much chakra on it, this was a nearly crippling injury.
"Who did this to you? It´s a nearly crippling injury" Asked the senbon user.
"Neji-" She said before catching her mouth remembering that Naruto was still there and he was leaking killing intent.
"Naruto-sama, you're scaring her" Warned the older girl.
Naruto composed.
"I'm sorry Hinata" He said without looking to them
"Naruto-sama, promise me that you are not going to look for him" Asked Haku
Naruto waited some moments before answering.
"I promise"
Flashback end
"Do you have a problem?" Scoffed Neji
And the killing intent intensified nearly matching Zabuza's, Neji's stoic attitude began to falter.
"I-I think we sh-shoould go now Ne-Neji" Stuttered Ten-Ten, Lee was surprisingly calm
Team 9 began to look for room 301 when Lee told his teammates to go there first.
On the way to room 301 team 7 got intercepted by Lee.
"Oi, Uchiha Sasuke I challenge you to a fight" Guess who?
Sasuke snorted.
'Why nobody ever wants to fight me' thought the blonde "Oi, if you want to fight him, then you have to fight with me first"
"I don´t have any interest on fighting you" Dismissed him the green clad boy "I want to test myself against the genius of the Uchiha clan"
"The hell!" and then Naruto charged the green clad boy.
Lee saw Naruto charging at him but he barely acknowledged him, when he was near enough of him he deflected a punch directed to his face and tried to trip him with a low kick, but Naruto was already on midair with his right foot on Lee´s face that caused him to nearly fall, The older boy was surprised by his fast reflexes but it make no difference, Naruto wasn´t quick enough to counter a Konoha Senpuu and was slammed to the wall.
"You are good for a rookie, but I have no interest in you, I want to figth him because right now I´m the strongest gennin in the village"
Sasuke smirked and advanced to Lee, when he was at a reasonable distance he took his stance.
"Sasuke-kun we only have half hour before the exam begins" warned Sakura
"Don´t worry, this will only take 5 minutes" Replied the Uchiha.
3 minutes 47 seconds later
Sasuke was in midair in process of being enveloped by Lee's bandages when a spinnin wheel pinned those bandages to the wall.
How could he lose to this weirdo?
Then he saw the older boy apologizing to a turtle.
How could HE lose to that weirdo?
Then he saw Gai, Gai punching Lee and the boy taking his punishment happily and of course the sunset genjutsu.
HOW COULD HE LOSE TO THAT WEIRDO?
Naruto wisely decided to drag his dazed teammates before the bowl haired duo noticed them.
Team 7 looked at the room where all the participants were waiting, awed at the quantity of them.
"SASUKE-KUN, FINALLY YOU COME TO ME!" yelled the blonde fangirl.
"LEAVE HIM ALONE INO-PIG!" replied her rival.
Leaving the fangirls to their antics Naruto and the males of team 10 greeted each other.
"Oi guys, seems like all the gang is here" Said Kiba while Shino remained stoic.
"Hi Na-Naruto-kun" Greeted Hinata
"Hi Hinata" Said blonde greeted her
"Hey rookies you should keep it quiet, this is not a game" Told them an older gennin.
"And who are you to tell us what to do" Said Sasuke
"My name is Kabuto and I´m a veteran of the chuunin exams" Answered the bespectacled boy.
"So this is your second time?" Asked Sakura
"No, the seventh"
"He, you must suck" Said Kiba
"Or maybe this exam is really difficult?" Asked the older gennin "Ok guys since you all remind me how I was at your age I´m going to help you with my ninja info cards"
"What is that?" Asked Naruto
"They are cards where I write information on the chuunin exams, I have informations on the nations participating and the participants" He said while showing them the information of the nations participating.
"So you have information on people here?" Asked Sasuke
"Yes, but it might not be complete" warned the silver haired boy.
"Do you have information on Gaara of the Sand and Rock Lee of the Leaf?" Asked Sasuke in a demanding tone.
"Also Hyuga Neji" Said the blonde gennin "Don't worry Hinata, just curious" Said him when he saw her worried face.
Seeing the interaction, Ino thought something happened with them, she wanted to embarrass Naruto for the pranks he did to her on the academy "Can you please show me of Uzumaki Naruto, Kabuto-san?"
Shikamaru eyed her, but seeing her mischievous grin he only sighed. Too troublesome to say something.
"So you know their Names, this will be fast" The older gennin said while looking for their cards at blinding speed. "Ok, this are the cards" He says while showing them

The rookie 9 were wide eyed.
"When did you make a B-Rank Dobe?" Asked Sasuke
"So that counted as a mission" the blonde talked more to himself and ignored Sasuke's question
"A sword of the Hidden Mist?" Asked Shikamaru.
"Hehe, bet he can´t lift it" Said Kiba.
Naruto deflated, seeing that Kiba grinned and was going to say something when Sasuke interrupted.
"None of our class could hope to lift that thing idiot" Said Sasuke
"Yeah, it´s bigger than any of us" Said Sakura
Naruto beamed when his teammates defended him.
"Troublesome, stop fighting, don´t you see that all of the gennin here are the elite of their villages?" Shikamaru raised his voice.
"That's true, but don´t worry to much about Sound, they fairly new on this" Said the older gennin.
The rookie 9 began shaking, except for Sasuke and Shikamaru, too troublesome to do that, Sakura when she saw that Naruto was trembling was going to cheer him up when.
"DO YOU HEAR ME! I´M NARUTO UZUMAKI AND I´M NOT GONNA LOSE TO ANY OF YOU!"
'Dobe'
'He made everyone here his enemy, troublesome'
'Why don´t you shut up Naruto-baka'
Then the blonde felt someone attacking the group and he jumped to action since Zaku was the closest to him he intercepted him allowing Kabuto an easier evasion of Dosu, but then his eyeglasses broke and he began trowing his breakfast.
"What happened?"
"He evaded the attack"
"Write this on your cards, the Sound gennin will be chuunin" Said the bandaged sound Gennin.
And then Ibiki and the other proctors came. (The first part is mostly the same so I'm not writing it, yeah I'm lazy)
Forest of death
Team 7 entered the forest of feath, they traveled for a couple of hours when Sasuke signaled them to stop and then revealed a map.
"Oi, teme for what is the map?" Said the blonde.
Sasuke didn't responded.
"Teme!"
"Shut up Naruto-baka!"
"I got this map, it shows relevant locations in this forest, let´s go" Said the teme.
And they followed Sasuke, Sakura to his left and Naruto to his right slightly lagging from them to detect any treat from behind.
After 2 hours of travelling trought the forest Sasuke stopped and his teammates followed.
"Let´s stop a moment to eat and then we continue, Sakura you guard that hole in that tree" Said tree was thick enough to house a medium car, the hole had enough space to house them temporarily, and also it had a huge branch that could be used as a bridge to go to another tree, it also had perfect very good covering so only a team that looked for them could find them "Dobe you find something to eat, I´ll find some water"
"Teme who put you in charge?" Asked defiantly the blonde
"I got the map, Dobe"
"Teme"
After that they proceeded to their tasks.
Aithne has always been one of the more freespirited of her siblings, and she liked to fly alone because it calmed her, her siblings always told her to not go alone to theforest, but who on their right mind will attack a fire fairy?
Aithne is a beauty even by fairy standards, she has fiery red hair, shoulder length, her ears pointy like an elf and her complexion is athletic like an endurance athlete, her tanned skin makes her more unique from her siblings and her red dragonfly like wings let her fly at blinding speeds with full grace.
When she felt something dragging her to the ground and she wasn´t strong enough to stop it, when she plummeted to the ground she found that she couldn´t lift her limbs from the ground.
"Spirit Grounding Seal, success" Said a voice
Then the black haired boy quickly got close to her and pressed a paper tag to her forehead, and she felt her power leaving her.
"Spirit Power Seal, success" Said the boy.
"What are you doing?" Asked the fairy
The boy took a soldier pill and unrolled 2 scrolls he had prepared on a nearby bush, he took off his shirt and pressed carefully one of the scrolls so he doesn´t damage the seal, he then repeats the process on the fairy´s back, then he makes a series of 30 handseals and from the seal on his belly shot several tendrils that bind the fairy, her pleas for him to stop fall on deaf ears and she promptly disappears inside Sasuke´s seal.
"Spirit Imprisonment Seal, success"
Then the dark haired boy begins to feel like his whole body is in pain, and after a few minute, that he felt like they were hours, it ended, he began feeling how his chakra reserves were refilling, after that he makes a small cut on his arm and he watches in fascination how it heals almost instantly, then he unseals a mirror.
'Let´s see if I got physical changes' He frowned when he saw his new fiery red hair, then he unsealed a bottle from his poach and began to use it´s contents like a shampoo, after he finished he applied chakra to his hair and it changed to jet black.
'Now I have to get dye every month for the rest of my life'
After this he began the trip to the location of his team, several moments later a presence made itself known.
"Hi Sasuke-kun, why are you so alone?" asked a female voice.
"Who are you?"
"Impress me and I´ll tell you" told her in a seductive voice (shudders)
"Heh, you are going to regret it" Said the boy
The boy attacked the Kusa Kunoichi with his sharingan activated, but every punch and kick he threw at her she nimbly evaded it, he becomes exasperated and trows her some shuriken, the Kunoichi evaded them without difficulty but Sasuke had already prepared a trap using an explosive tag he had placed for Aithne, the tag exploded and the Kunoichi was throwed at him, the boy did some handseals and aspired profoundly.
"Katon: Goukakyu no Jutsu!"
The fireball hits dead on, but this fireball was blood red and far hotter than any other he had produced, he also noticed that his lips were slithly burned.
'Damn, I´ll need to practice all my jutsus if they become like this' thought the boy.
"Wow Sasuke-kun, your katon is really impressive, but that alone will not help you win this battle" Said the snake sannin from behind Sasuke
Sasuke tried to move but he found himself pinned by three clones that appeared from below the ground.
"Now Sasuke-kun, I´ll leave you a little gift from me and if you want more power you can look for me, my name is Orochimaru" The snake sannin told him while his disguise began to dissolve. After that his neck extended to impossible length and bit him on the neck.
The cursed seal appeared, but there appeared a very unique cursed seal, the cursed seal of vacuum, its symbol was a circle with 4 cuts dividing it equally. Orochimaru´s eyes widened.
'The cused mark of vacuum, never knew the Uchiha had a jinchuuriki, I will have to be careful if I want to use his body, maybe I would have to wait until one of his kids is habitable to get an Uchiha, Damn it'
And Orochimaru leaved an unconscious Sasuke on the floor while his seal took effect.
Naruto
Naruto was looking for anything to eat when he saw a thick mist began to form, so he knew he was on the Kirigakure no Jutsu, he began expanding his senses and felt an attack coming from his back.
The blonde quickly evaded the attack of a big 'axe'?, only to be caught on a explosion caused by it.
"Heh, what a waste of time, well infiltrating your village was easy, now let´s look for the sword" said cockily a white haired boy.
And Naruto poofed, Suigetsu didn´t had time to evade a kunai to his lung from behind him.
Naruto watched how he had stabbed the other teen, but before he could think of anything the white haired teen became water and hit Naruto in the gut, slamming the blond on a tree, said blonde disappeared on a cloud of smoke.
'Damn, this guy is good for a Konoha-scum'
"Who are you?" Asked the blonde using the jutsu that Zabuza did with his voice, he was hidden behind a tree
"Hōzuki Suigetsu" Said the white haired teen "And I´m here to take that beautiful sword from someone that doesn´t deserves it"
"And who are you to tell me that?"
"I´m the one that will reform the 7 swordsman of the Mist"
And the blond felt himself being cut in half by the other teens blade, only for the blond to become water, then the white haired teen heard a sizzling of a paper bomb so he jumped, the branch where he was exploded, while in midair he perceived a lot of blades coming to him so he transformed in water, unfortunately for him the time it took to reform was to long and Naruto threw him 3 kunai with exlosive tags on them and he got vaporized, his sword fell to the ground.
Naruto stared at the place were the other teen was, waiting for him to reform, but nothing happened.
'Oh god, I killed him' and he looked at the blade of Suigetsu 'And we only fought for our swords'
"You must remember that sometimes the enemy will be hellbent on killing you, if that happens you will not have any other choice but to kill them"
Those were the words of one of Iruka's lessons, he didn't knew why they he remembered them, but they explained the situation, Suigetsu felt he was unworthy of the sword and that he needed to kill him, so the only choice was to kill the other teen.
Then he remembered his teammates, he unsealed his practice sword, and strapped it on his back, then he sealed Shibaku on it's place, after that he went to his team refuge.
'I'll ask jiji what can we do with this sword'
Sakura
Sakura was alert in the hideout, when one of her traps alerted her of someone coming, she tensed, but when she saw Naruto she relaxed.
"Sorry Sakura-chan, I couldn´t hunt anything" Said the blonde
Seeing his state she asked "What happened Naruto?"
"I got attacked by this Suigetsu guy, he wanted Zabuza´s sword, we fought and-" Naruto stared blankly at her.
"Is something wrong?"
"I-I ki-killed him"
Seeing the emotions that Naruto was experiencing Sakura began conforting him, like a sister would do, it took a couple of minutes but she managed to calm him a little.
"Sakura-chan, the Teme is late" Stated him.
"I know" she said, now used to the nicknames of her teammates "We should look for him"
"Hai"
They went to the direction he left, and they arrived when he was still unconscious.
"Sasuke-kun!" Said concerned the pink haired girl, then she began checking him. "He is fine, we should carry him to the hideout"
Naruto nodded and then he carried the black haired boy on his back.
That night
Three figures were observing team 7 like predators.
"It seems like there are 2 bugs in there" Said a male voice
"Zaku don´t get cocky, we should finish one of them quickly, then we attack on full force" Said a bandaged boy
"I think we should attack them when that pink haired slut is guarding them" Said a female voice.
"That´s a better idea, she seems really weak, Kin and I will attack her when she is alone, then you blow their hideout" Said Dosu
"I´m going to take the first watch Naruto, you had a thought day"
"Hai Sakura-chan"
Naruto got in the hole in the tree, placed his sword between Sasuke and him and began to sleep.
1 hour later
Sakura was fighting the boredom of keeping guard, when he began to remember a particularly difficult training exercise they had, Sasuke and her had to fight Naruto with only taijutsu, but he could use Kirigakure no Jutsu, it was surprising how sthealty and silent was Naruto when using that jutsu, it reminded her of Zabuza, they still can´t win a battle of that kind.
*Swissssh* *Clang*
Sakura tensed while eyeing the kunai she had deflected while staying on defensive stance, she was lucky it didn´t had an explosive tag.
"Hehehe, seems like you´re not that weak" Said Zaku while standing on the branch in front of her.
"Idiot we still had the advantage of being hidden" Said Dosu while leaping from a nearby branch to another near Sakura.
'You too are an idiot Dosu, she didn´t knew where you were' thought Kin while staying hidden
"It doesn´t matter, give us the Uchiha and matbe we will let you live" Said Zaku.
And a very thick mist began covering them.
"Eight choices: kidneys, brain, liver, lungs, clavicle vein, neck vein, heart!"
'Naruto'
"What do I strike first?" Said the blonde while channeling as much killing intent he could, it wasn´t as malicious like on the Neji´s incident, but it had a lot of chakra inbedded into it, making the 2 Sound gennin feel uneasy.
"His killing intent is almost as powerfull as Orochimaru-sama" Said Zaku
Naruto narrowed his eyes.
"Idiot now we will have to make sure they are dead!"
'Impressive, while his killing intent is not nearly as malicious as Orochimaru-sama´s, it has the same strength that he has'
"Kage Bunshin no jutsu" Whispered the blonde and there were five clouds of smoke.
The five blondes began moving 3 to Zaku and 2 for Dosu, one clone tried to sneak on Zaku´s back but the dark haired teen reverse kicked the clone on the jaw and it disappeared, the other 2 tried to flank him with their swords unsheathed but each got caught on a Zankūha.
The other 2 clones tried to sneak on Dosu and trap him, one from behind him and the other from his right coming from the lower part of his branch, he just hit his gauntlet and send a weak sound wave that dispelled both clones.
'Damn their good'
"We are from the Sound village, we have a very good hearing sense" Boasted Zaku while Dosu rolled his eye at his stupidity.
While the males of the sound team were fighting the blonde, Kin sneaked cautiously so the real Naruto would not discover her, when she got near the entrance of the treehole she had to evade the shuriken that Sakura threw to her, she then threw her own volley of shuriken and while the pink haired girl was evading them she got close and it didn´t took her a lot of time to overpower her with taijutsu.
"You should spend more time training and less time tending to your hair" Said Kin with a sadistic smile while grabbing Sakura by her hair.
Sakura was trembling in pain and fear when Kin raised a kunai to gut her when they felt a very strong and foul chakra presence.
Sasuke´s P.O.V.
This power is awesome, but why does it feel tainted? He sealed within himself a fire faery, it´s power should be pure, it must be whatever that guy did when he bit him, Orochimaru was it?
I go outside of our shelter and see a Kunoichi holding Sakura by her hair, this is going to be fun.
General P.O.V.
Sasuke charged the sound kunoichi at blinding speed, she threw him her kunai but Sasuke just evaded it and before she could get on defensive stance the boy hit her on the gut making her fall from the tree, when she fell she lost consciousness and broke an arm.
Naruto was having problems because he couldn't sneak on the sound gennin,so he decided on the Zabuza approach, he made 10 clones, sent 5 to distract Zaku, and he used the others to surround Dosu, once in position all the clones threw their Zanbato´s surprising Dosu, the bandaged gennin barely avoided the 5 big ass swords when he heard the sound of another one coming, and he was on midair, he twisted and used his gauntlet and a Kunai to block it, but doing this made him free fall to the ground upside down, he fell helplessly and died from the concussion.
Sasuke saw how the last of the clones of Naruto got dispelled so he made some handsigns and launched a "Katon: Housenka no Jutsu" to the unaware sound gennin, they were not only hotter but also faster, the blood red flames of Sasuke quickly consumed Zaku.
Perceiving that the last opposing Gennin was dead, Naruto dispelled the mist.
"Teme, check the girl for a scroll"
Sasuke didn't replied but proceeded to check Kin, Naruto did the same with Dosu.
"Woohoo, it´s an earth scroll" Celebrated Naruto.
"Shut up Naruto-baka, other teams will hear us"
"She is alive" Said the dark haired boy.
"Wait, Kuchiyose no jutsu: Boroi" And after the smoke dissipated they saw a chameleon of the tree family, as big as a Great Dane, has red skin with yellow back.
"Yo" Said the Chameleon
"Yo, Boroi I need you to take her to Hokage-jiji and tell him that she works for his ex-student" Ordered the blonde, without disrespecting the chameleon.
"Hai" the chameleon nimbly approached the unconscious girl and proceded to "eat" her, Sakura and Sasuke were horrified, once he finished he vanished on thin air.
Seeing Sakura's horrified face he tells them "Don't worry, it's a jutsu of him, it's like a storage scroll"
This calmed both of them, seeing someone dying was shocking, but seeing someone get eaten was something they didn't want to do.
"We should get going, the blood will attract predators" Said the black haired boy
"Hai" Complied his teammates.
They didn't had any problem going to the tower thanks to Naruto's keen senses.
A/N: this will not be a Sasuke-bashing fic, but yeah he is evil on this fic. Don´t like don´t read.
Also if you want the preliminaries figthing order changed review me please, I'll close the poll when I begin making the next chapter, everything can happen until then.
This chapter was long.
The chakra of Aithne is pure, but Orochimaru´s cursed seal corrupts it before it gets to Sasuke.
Sasuke´s faery name: Aithne (Little fire)
Boroi:
Chameleon of the tree family, as big as a Great Dane, Has red skin with yellow back ,he is very agile , can camouflage as any chameleon of the tree family and has the ability of 'store' things on his stomach, even people.
