He was late . The party had gonne on for a while he was supprised at how many people showed up all of his old friends almost everyone . He had remembered how Sakura was acting and it confused him . She was seemed to be happy that team seven was back but he could sense something was off something was still bothering her . He decided that the next time he saw her he would ask her about it .
The next morning his living room was a sight to behold every body had gonne home . Karin was upstaires sleeping off her drunkness . But the funniest part was what was on the sofa . Sasuke was shirtless propped upside down against the sofa . 'I have no clue how he got into that position and i'm not sure i want to know ...' he lauthed quietly as not to disturbe the new Genin . He went to the kitchen and started to cook . He knew what Sasuke and Karin like in the morning but as for Yugao he had no clue .
"Yoo Narutoo-kuun Howw are ya ?" Naruto turned to the voice and saw Yugao in the doorway to the back looking at him with a tired look . "Da hell happened last nighttt ? I only had two cans of beer and i feel like shit ..." She spoke in a slured and tired tone as she struggled to sit down on one of the bar stools near the kitchen counter .
"You partyed hard that's what happened ... Ho and you didn't just have a few beers you had a drinking contest with Ino ..." He said as he walked over to the sink and started to clean some of the cuttlery and plates from the party .
"Damnnn . No wonder i'm zapped ... I'm gonna go to sleep ." She got off the stool and lied down on the sofa . She brushed against Sasuke's feet which woke him up . He jolted upstraight as a can of beer fell off his head .
"So how are you feeling Sasuke-san ? Meeting up with all your old teammates ..."
"There your teamates too Naruto ." He stood up and walked to the front door . "I need to go meet my team ! See you tonight !" He said leaving the house .
"Sure !" Naruto had finnished cleaning up the dishes . He was going to start cleaning up the rest of the house untile he saw his calendar lying on the floor . "SHIT ! I could have swore we weren't monday yet !" He rushed upstaires put on a red shirt with some ANBU looking overcoat ontop he the proceeded to almost trip as he put on som black cargo pants . The second he had put them on he formed a seal and disapeared in a cloud of smoke . He reapeared outside Konoha Academy . He looked at his watch .
"Phew . I've got fifteen minutes to spare i thought i was going to die of a heart attack there ." He looked up at the building , he knew this building by heart on top of his old academy was the hokage's tower where he saw a glimps of the blond Hokage turning away from the window . He walked into the building and was greeted by the sight of children running around the halls . He saw a group run past as a teacher was chasing the . Said teacher stopped in his tracks as he saw The blond boy standing at the entrance .
"Naruto-kun ?!" The brown haired man looked into the blonds eyes . "I saw you on tv , well everybody did , i can't believe your back ! I thougth you where dead for sure !"
"Good to see you too Iruka-sensei ." The blond kid smiled at the memories of his past . He then looked solemly at Iruka's arm .
"Listen Naruto-kun you don't have to worry about my arm okay ? It's perfectly fine ." He said lauthing while showing Naruto his completly unharmed arm .
"I'm glad ." As Naruto said that , Iruka was hit in the back of the head with a bit of rubber gum . The teacher spun around and shouted starting to chase whoever had thrown it at him . Naruto decided taht he was going to just walk around for a bit . He started to walk down one of the corridors . He could almost imaging Kiba and him running away from Iruka . He walked slowly down the corridor embracing all of the memories of his not so distant youth . If someone could see inside his head they would say he was an old man remembering his childhood .
Naruto stoped and looked down at a paper he pulled out of his pocket A1 . The blond child looked up spotting the class he was going to bee teaching he was supposed to meet someone there . There was five minuts untile the class started when he entered .
"Yo , i'm supposed to be teaching here ." He entered raising his hand and smilling . He looked at who was in the class . There was a red haired girl sat on the front row and two guys sat next to eachother on the other side of the room . All three of them looked at him and smiled lightly . He gave a fox like grin as he sat on the chair . Only three minuts where left when a pale skinned blond haired women walked into the room .
"Y-you must be Naruto-sama nice to meet you ." The pale blond bowed at him , trembling lightly under his questioning gase .
" Sama ? "
She kept her head down still bowing . " Almost everybody in the village knows that you defeated Kakashi-san , Hokage-sama and Danzo ."
" Yeah but just use San it's weird having someone older than me call me sama ." She raised her head and nodded as she sat at her desk Naruto just stood to the side , he looked at all the children walk in and he noticed how the red haired girl was all alone , but before he could ask the teacher what this was about she stood up and introduced him .
"Okay children today you have the honor of being tought by the person considered the strongest Ninja in the village !" she said looking at Naruto who still seemed unconfortable with being called the strongest in the village .
"I don't see Hokage-sama anywhere miss !" A yougn boy said lauthing .
"I guess you look up to the Hokage right ?" he said looking at the children as they all nodded even the red haired girl .
"Surely you children heard the news of Naruto-kun defeating Hokage-sama and Danzo ." She said as if she where offended ."
"It's fine i don't expect them to beleive what they hear and that's good a good Ninja never believes what he his told without soldi proof !" He said looking at the children . " So how about our first class be a test ." He said grining . "You don't mind do you -" He looked at her realising he didn't know her name . She blushed and whispered in his ear .
"My names Uzu Umi , sorry i forgot to tell you ."
"No i don't mind Naruto-kun ." Every body stood up and went round the back of the Academy .
"So shall we start with Kunai throwing ? You should know the basic's but i'll still show you ." he pulled out a target and put it down . He started walking away . He ended up about twenty feet away from the target . Everybody looked at him like he was mad . He threw his kunnai but instead of throwing it straight he made it spin . Every body thought it wasn't going to make it but it did . It even cut the target in half .
"Okay so you guys can work on your kunnai skills if you need any help just ask me or Uzu-san " He walked up to Uzu and then turned to look at the children . He Noticed how one yougn red haired girl wasn't aible to throw the kunnai well .
"Uzu what's up with the red haired girl ?" He looked at her when he noticed the woman looking with eyes he knew all to well .
"She isn't worth the time , her hole fammily is dead so she thinks that she can do anything she wants , it's infuriating ." She turned and started to leave . "I assume you can take care of this class on your own for today i need to go do something . " The second he noticed she left he started to walk towards the red head . The girl looked up at him and flinched lightly , he wasn't sure why she did .
"Hey , your hold on the kunnai is too tight you need to hold it not too loosly and not to tight or it'll fall short or won't be presice ." He said smilling at her . She looked up at him with a supprised look she tryed to do what he said and managed to get a bullseye . "There you go ! Just keep practising like that and you'll be a pro in no time at all ." He walked over too another kid who had called for his help . The yougn girl staired at the back of the teenage boy's back her eyes wide .
It was later on when Naruto had decided that they had done enougth kunnai training for now . He looked at a small river nearby that never used to be there he simeld as he thought of something . He formed and earth style seal and a hole apeared in the ground near the children . He then formed another sign as the hole started to fill up with water . It stabelised and was still he then looked at the children .
"What is that for Naruto-sensei ?"
"That'll be for later first follow me . Now you all know how to use chakra right ?" they all nodded so he continued ."Okay good , now you should know about chakra controle . What we're going to be doing here is train in your chakra controle some of you will manage tomaster this today others it will take a long time . So the basic is you gather chakra in your feet ." He said as he walked up to the tree . "Then you need to find the right amount of chakra to use to 'stick' to the tree . " He climbed up onto the side of the tree and started walking up it defying the laws of phisics . "Now if you pump to much chakra into your feet you'll go flying ." At that the children all looked scared . Naruto lauthed disapeared and reapeared behind them . "Don't worry i'll catch you if that happens , now also if you don't pump enougth chakra you won't hold on the tree . So you'll fall , again i'll catch you so don't worry . Also don't worry about your chakra reserves if your hurt or tiered just come to me and i'll fix you up . Now you'll each take your turn in trying to climb the tree ."
About an hour later a couple of the kids had basicly mastered the tree climbing jutsu . One was the red haired girl , another was a brown haired boy and the last was a pink haired girl .
"Okay so what are your names ? Yours seam to be the only ones worth remembering ." he said jokingly watching the other children still trying to climb the tree .
"M-my name is Shirin Setchi ..." The red haired girl said looking at the ground .
"My name's Kiri Shinwa ." Said the brown haired boy , in a bored tone . Naruto Narrowed his eyes at this .
"My name's Hana Haruno !" Naruto looked at her in shock .
"W-wait are you related to Sakura ?" he said looking at her
"Sakura-Nee-san ?"
"Sakura-chan has a little Sister ? It's true that i don't know her very well ... How old are you hana-Kohai ?" he said looking down at the yougn girl .
"I'm Nine years old !" She said cheerfully .
'So i knew her for all that time and yet i didn't know she had a sister ... Damn ... Also if sensei had come to supervise me like he was supposed to this would go alot faster .' At that Naruto thought back to Kakashi giving him an eye smile saying he was busy .
"Okay , way off topic ... Now for the next part of your training i want you to walk on water ."
"Huu Naruto-sensei ? Isn't that impossible ?"
"Man now i know why Kyu was so frustrated with me back then ." He mumble quietly to himself . "Okay you just do the same thing as you did whiles walking on the tree . It'll be harder so you'll have to concentrat alot more okay ?" He demonstrated how to do it and they all tryed . All three of them failed on the first go but on the second Shirin started to get the hang of it . She had managed to master it in under half an hour , the over two however where still struggling . Naruto sighed as he ran his hand throught his hair .
"Shirin-san you can rest and try and help the other two . I'll go and check on the others and on where your teacher got too ." He did as he said . Not long later he had found there teacher . She was sat on a bench smoking .
"You know smoking is bad for you ." He said looking at the women as he stood not far from her .
"It's depressing ..." She started as Naruto's eyes widened . "Every year or so a Jounin comes along and teaches a class , You always seem to teach them better than the real teachers ..." She said looking at him putting out the cigarette with her heel .
"Maybe because you've not experienced what i have . Most people would say that i'm the strongest Ninja in the village . You seem to think that too ." He looked at the ground sitting next to her . "That's the stupidest thing i've ever hear . You know why ?"
"N-no ..." She said looking at his lowered head .
"I maybe phisicaly stronger than anybody in this village but my mind is weaker than a piece of wet paper . If not for the Ninetails i would have gone mad a long time ago ." He said as he stood up leaving the girl to her thoughts . Naruto wasn't really sure why he had told her that .
"So Shirin-san how are they doing ?"
"N-not bad sensei , they've got the basics d-down ." She said avoiding his gaze .
"Good . They seem pretty tired so how about we get you onto the next step . Start standing on the water ." She did as he said . Naruto formed a seal and the water started to have small waves go throught it . The girl instantly started to stumble and fell into the water . Naruto looked at his watch . It had already been five hours since he had arrived here .
"Okay every one , seems you all progressed alot ! Continue like this and you'll pass the genin exams as if they where nothing !" Naruto thougth back on how he had completed the second part of the exam but wasn't able to becaume a fully fledged genin . They all returned to class and there teacher was there waiting for them . The children picked up there bags and started to leave .
"I hope you had fun with Naruto-sama ! I'll see you all tomorow !" she said waving them all goodbye . Naruto left the classroom and had climbed onto the roof . He noticed the hokage looking at him from the tower but he ignored her for now . He was looking down at all the children leaving with there parents .
'There are to many unsolved problems in this town , the tunnels , the akatsuki , Sakura-chan and Shirin-san , she was no normal little girl . Her powers ... She mastered those technics in a matter of hours . Naruto turned and went up into the Hokage's tower . He knocked on the door and entered .
" I see your class went well Naruto-kun . But your report is due for tomorrow , so what is it you want ?"
"Hokage-sama it's about a girl named Shirin Setchi ..."
"I thought you might ask ... It's hard to fool you isn't it ."
"Her chakra pool ..." he said looking at her with seriousness . I noticed it half way throught her training . My byakugan picked it up ... She's an Uchiha isn't she ? " As he said that the hokage looked at him with a stern glare .
"What do you plan on doing with this information , Naruto-Kun " She intentionaly laced the Kun with sarcasme . It's clear the Hokage didn't trust him much after that stunt with Danzo .
"When she becaumes a genin after the exams . I want to becaume her instructor . I know this won't be for another year or so but i still want to becaume her team's intructor ." Tsunade looked at him with surprise . She looked into his eyes and she could tell he had no misguided thoughts or dark motives .
"Fine i guess that's possible but until then i hope that you complet every single mission i give to you without a single mistake , got it ?"
"hai , hokage-sama ."
