Naruto The Rikudo Sannin

Training and Finals

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Naruto was heading to the training ground that Jiraiya had told him to be at. He enters and sees the Sannin with a bag next to him. "Well Naruto let's begin. I need to know what Kakashi has taught you," said the old Sannin.

Tree walking," said Naruto. "And team work,"

"Anything else?" asked Jiraiya waiting for Naruto to elaborate.

"That bum is too busy teaching the Uchiha prick," said Naruto. "I have been self taught for a few years then had help with some Anbu."

Jiraiya was shaking with rage. "even Minato didn't play favorites," thought Jiraiya.

"I will speak to Sarutobi about this blatant favoritism," said Jiraiya. "I will teach you the Rasengan,"

"First step is rotation," said Jiraiya as he holds the water balloon.

Naruto watches as the water starts to rotate. "Go ahead give it a shot," said Jiraiya.

Naruto grabs the water balloon and starts to rotate it but after five minutes it explodes. "damn," said Naruto.

"Keep it up," said Jiraiya. "You did better than others,"

Naruto was lying down after completing the first step of the Rasengan "two hour to complete step one," said Jiraiya. "Naruto I will give you the second step and then I have to report to sensei," said Jiraiya.

He takes a rubber ball. "the next step is power," he explained. "You break the rubber ball with chakra," said Jiraiya as he demonstrates.

"Understood," said Naruto as he practices busting the ball.

Jiraiya disappears in a shunshin.

In the Hokage's office Jiraiya was having a chat with Sarutobi. "Even his assigned sensei has neglected him," said Jiraiya with a disappointed tone. "You should have put him on a different team sensei."

"I knew and two of my jounin have started to train him," said Hokage. Plus I am doing all I can to make it up to the young man."

"I though he forgave you?" asked Jiraiya

"He has but I have not forgiven myself," said Sarutobi. "Like I said check with his new teachers."

"Who are they?" asked Jiraiya.

"Kurenai Yuhi and Yugao Uzuki," said Sarutobi.

"I will work something out with them," said Jiraiya. "Have a nice day sensei.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Kurenai was walking along the village when she was approached by Jiraiya. "Kurenai-san," said the man.

"Jiraiya-sama," she said. "What do you need?" she asked.

"I heard from sensei that you are training Naruto," said Jiraiya.

"His sensei, if you can call Hatake that, refused to train him," said Kurenai. "I decided to teach him a few things."

Jiraiya nods his head. "very well, Kurenai. I would like you to train him when I am unable to," said Jiraiya.

"Understood Jiraiya-sama," said Kurenai.

"Here is where he is at, learning the second step of the Rasengan," said Jiraiya making Kurenai eyes widen.

"So you taught him that jutsu," said Kurenai. "Thank you Jiraiya-sama,"

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Naruto was at the training ground for two hours unable to make the ball bust. "Damn what am I doing wrong?" he asked himself. "Of course I need add rotation as well as power,"

Naruto does that and finally bust the ball. "Yatta," he said.

He turns his head and sees Kurenai. "Kurenai sensei," said Naruto. "What are you doing here?"

"Jiraiya has given me permission to train you when he is not around. Now have you been working on the genjutsu I gave you?" she asked.

"I got it down but hard to control due to my reserves," said Naruto.

"Let me see," said Kurenai. "I might be able to help you,"

Naruto goes through hand seal. "Genjutsu Tree binding of death," said Naruto as Kurenai is wrapped in a tree. But it fall appears within a minutes. "Sorry Kurenai-sensei," said the genin.

"You are doing great, you just need to work on you control but you are almost there," she said.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Naruto tries to mix his exercises up causing his control to go to new heights after two hours. "Alright Naruto try it one more time" said Kurenai.

Naruto performs the jutsu and the tree warps around the jounin who smiles "well done Naruto," Kurenai said as she breaks out of the genjutsu.

"Mondays and Wednesday you will be training with me," said Kurenai

Tuesdays and Thursdays will be with Jiraiya,"

"Friday will be with Gai to get you taijutsu up. I had pulled some favors for him. Saturdays will be with Yugao and Sunday will D ranks missions," said Kurenai.

Hai sensei," said Naruto. "So I guess today is Monday so tomorrow I will be working with Jiraiya," said Naruto.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Over the two weeks Naruto has trained none stopped and done about forty D rank missions. Naruto was walking to the stadium when he was accosted by Sakura. "Were where you baka. Sensei told us to meet yesterday," she screeched.

Naruto walked by her not sparing a glance. "leave me alone you damn howler monkey and I thought I told you I am not on your team," said Naruto as he walks away.

Sakura was pissed. "I hope you die in the exams," she said hoping to get Naruto riled up. Ignoring her he walks away.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

At the stadium Naruto stood next to Shikamaru. "alright my name is Genma and I am proctor. Now any questions," asked the senbon chewing jounin

"None alright since one Dosu dropped out Shikamaru will be facing Temari," said Genma. "Now Naruto Uzumaki vs. Neji Hyuga will be the first match,"

Naruto walks down as Neji does as well. "you are fated to lose," said Neji.

Naruto blinks. "is that all you're going to say after nearly murdering Hinata," said the blond. "I guess I have beat it in your thick skull about the fate," said Naruto.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

In the Kage box, Sarutobi welcomed the Kazekage. "glade to see you can make it," said the old Hokage.

"The trip was uneventful," said the green robed Kazekage.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"That Baka won't win," she said. "Neji is a genius,"

"You should have more faith in your teammate," said a blond hair female.

"Who care Ino I hope he dies," said Sakura making Ino eyes widen.

"Sakura I am going somewhere else if you are going to wish for your teammate's death," said Ino as she walks away.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Begin," said Genma as Neji charge forward Byakugan active.

Naruto runs forward grabbing the palm thrust aimed at his head. He then sends a kick to Neji head sending him back. "I was expecting more from a Hyuga. You rely too much on your eyes," said Naruto.

"I have no gifts from my family but I don't need them. Special eyes are nothing more than a crutch," said Naruto.

"What do you know always happy," said Neji. "I am nothing but a caged bird," said the Hyuga.

"You can fight the fate as well as I can. Nothing is set in stone," said Naruto. "I have trained hard since the first round."

Neji hits Naruto sending him back. "I sealed your chakra," said the Hyuga. "You should give up."

Naruto chuckled "so you did but I let you to show the weakness of the Gentle Fist," said the blond. "Watch carefully." Naruto chakra spikes.

Neji eyes widen. "He is unblocking the chakra point," said Neji.

Naruto throws some kunai as Neji rotates. "This is one of the ultimate defense of the Hyuga," said Neji.

Naruto keeps his distance knowing the Hyuga strong suit is taijutsu. "I will have the resort to ninjutsu," said the blond. "Wind Style: Sonic Boom," he said as he throws a disk of wind at Neji.

"Rotation," said Neji as he spins blocking the attack. "Is that it," said Neji.

"Wind Style: Air Cutter," said Naruto firing wind blades out of his mouth causing Neji to waste his chakra on the repeated assault. "I know my strengths and weakness," said the blond. "My greatest strength is my chakra capacity."

"So you are still a loser," said Neji.

"I can tell you are running low on chakra," said Naruto. "Wind Style: Bird of Prey," said the blond as a bird is formed of wind and it hits Neji knocking him to the ground. "Yields Neji," said Naruto placing his kunai on the Hyuga throat.

"I forfeit," said Neji.

"Winner is Naruto," said Genma.

The crowd cheers as Naruto walks to Neji and help him up "let go back to your team," said the blond genin.

Neji gives him a grateful smile "thank you," he said.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Next match is Sasuke Uchiha vs. Gaara," said Genma as Gaara appears on the floor.

After waiting for a short while the crowd starts to boo.

In the Kage box the Hokage stood up. "Since Sasuke has not shown he is disquilifed," said the old man. The crowd boos. "There will be no favorites in these matches because the enemy will not wait."

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Sasuke has been disqualified. Next match will be Shino Aburame vs. Kankuro," said Genma.

The paint wearing ninja growled. "I can't revel my weapons to soon," he thought. "Proctor I forfeit."

"Shino wins," said Genma.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Next match is Shikamaru Nara vs. Temari," said Genma

Shikamaru groans. "Why do I have to fight," he said. "I should give up,"

"No you don't you lazy bum," said Naruto pushing the Nara to the floor.

"Damn Naruto," said the Nara.

"Begin," said Genma.

Temari opens her fan. "Wind Scythe Jutsu," said the Sand Kunoich blowing wind at Shikamaru who heads into manmade forest in the arena.

"Shadows Possession Jutsu," said the Nara as his shadow heads to Temari who dodges.

"I see he can only extend it with a shadow," thought Temari. "His limit is right here," she said slamming her fan on the ground.

Temari sees a shadow over her and jumps as the shadow almost caught her. "His jacket," she thought.

Shikamaru smirks and has his shadow attach to Temari. "How?" she asked.

"I will let you look," said Shikamaru as he turns his head making her do the same.

"The wall cast a shadow and my shadow was touching. I did not take my own shadow in to account," she thought.

"Shikamaru sigh "I forfeit," he said. "I am low on chakra,"

"Winner Temari," said Genma

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Next match will be Gaara vs Naruto," said Genma.

A wind blows and Kakashi and Sasuke appear on the field. "we are not late are we?" asked the Jounin with his eye smile

"You student has been disqualified for being late," said Genma

"You can't do that," shouted Sasuke. "I demand to fight," said the Uchiha.

"Kakashi get your student off the field," said Genma.

"Oh well at least Naruto failed to win I am sure," said the Jounin.

"He is the one fighting in the second round. He beat Neji," said Genma "Get off the field,"

Kakashi lone eye narrows. "I will have the Hokage overturn this decision," said the silver haired jounin.

"Get off the field Jounin Kakashi," said the Hokage. "Your student failed to show up and he will not get promoted. Being late on a mission will be disastrous," he said.

Kakashi growls and disappears.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Alright next match is Gaara vs. Naruto begin," said Genma.

Naruto goes through hand seal. "Wind Style: Great Breakthrough," he shouted firing a guest of wind making Gaara to block with his sand.

"I want to feel alive Uzumaki," said the red haired genin as he shoots sand at Naruto forcing him to dodge.

Gaara turns around "Rasengan," said Naruto as he is hit from the back. The Naruto in front disappears in a plume of smoke.

Kakashi eye widen. "he knows the Rasengan," said the jounin. "Who taught him that?" he asked.

"Jiraiya taught him that move because you were too busy teaching the Uchiha brat," said Kurenai

"How would you know?" asked Kakashi.

"Simple I taught him a few things myself. Since I was available," said the genjutsu mistress. "He is diamond in the rough."

"You have no right teaching him," said Kakashi eye narrowed.

"I wasn't the only one Hatake," said Kurenai.

"She is right we had the Hokage permission to train this youthful genin," said Gai. "I have lost a lot of respect for you Kakashi."

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

In the field Gaara felt something on his hand. "that is my blood," screamed Gaara as he collapses.

Feathers start to fall on the crow.d "genjutsu," said Naruto breaking out of it as Sound and Sand Ninja start to attack.

The Invasion of the Leaf has begun
