Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto at all
The next day, Naruto decided to go to Training Ground 44 to set up a few things for his grand entrance later. He set up a few trigger seals that would produce purple smoke. The seal will only trigger when Naruto flares his chakra. With the help of his modified Shushin, it would be easy to scare some people. It works even better at the training ground due to the large amount of Killer Intent coming from the forest itself. After waiting until all the teams arrived, Naruto flared a tiny amount of chakra to activate the trigger, releasing large amount of purple smoke. Putting his hood on, Naruto used his Shushin to move into the smoke. The Genins could see a hooded figure walking in the purple smoke and were quite scared thinking that the hooded figure came from hell. Some Genins were smart enough to use wind Jutsus to get rid of the smoke. Once the smoke was cleared, they noticed the jacket and knew that Naruto was just another competitor.
"Naruto Uzumaki has arrived." Naruto stated lowering his hood.
" Naruto Baka, now every team will try and target us!" Sakura screeched from behind making lots of people cringe.
"Shut up you Howler Monkey! Besides your screeching is good enough to protect us because no one will want to come within three miles of us!" Naruto shouted back angrily. All this while Anko was standing on one of the branches waiting for the right time to intervene.
"Welcome to Training Ground 44 or The Forest of Death!" Anko shouted after she landed on the ground.
"Forest of Death? This place does not seem scary at all." Naruto stated. Anko than threw a kunai at Naruto but he dodged it with ease. Appearing from behind, Anko held a Kunai to his throat.
"It's those who think they are tough who are the first to die." Anko whispered in his ear.
"Well, everything can be solved with a well thought plan." Naruto replied. Anko looked down and noticed that Naruto had a Kunai positioned at her stomach.
"That was fast, I did not even notice him move at all. If I had not seen the fight between Naruto and the Tigers, I would have thought that it was just an illusion." Anko thought to herself.
"Anko, I think you should continue with the exams." Naruto whispered. Anko quickly Shushined back to her original spot before continuing.
"For the next five days, you will be spending your time in the Forest of Death. Each team will be given a scroll, which can either be a Heaven scroll or Earth scroll. The objective is to liberate another scroll from other teams. Each team must have one Heaven and one Earth scroll before they can enter the tower located in the middle of this forest." Anko explained.
"What about food?" Choji asked.
"Easy, you will have to hunt them yourselves. Anyway before we start, sign this waiver." Anko said.
"What is this for?" Sakura questioned.
"This waiver is to say that Konoha is not responsible for any deaths that might occur in the Forest of Death." Anko shouted before a few random Chunins handed out the Waivers. Suddenly a small monkey appeared in a puff of smoke and instantly Naruto and Anko knew that the Hokage had sent it.
"I have a note for Naruto Uzumaki." The monkey said. Naruto walked up to the monkey and received the letter.
"Thanks, you can go now. I will summon a fox to send the reply back." Naruto said to the monkey who nodded it's head a disappeared back to the monkey summoning realm.
Dear Naruto,
I have officially removed you from team 7 like what you wanted. Kakashi does not know that you are no longer under him so please wait for a while.I have arranged for Jiraiya to come back and you will be his apprentice. Anyways you can continue the second part of the exams on your own just show this letter to Anko and she will allow it. If Kakashi asks you why are you allowed to take the exam on your own just say that it is a mission assigned by me.
Signed,
Hiruzen Sarutobi, Sandaime Hokage
" Summoning Jutsu!" Naruto whispered after flashing through some hand signs and slamming it on the ground. With a poof sound, a fox was summoned.
"What can I do for you today Naruto?" The fox asked.
" I want you to tell the Hokage that I said thanks and I will make him proud." Naruto said. The fox nodded it's head before running towards the Hokage tower sat top speed.
"Anko, I have something to show you." Naruto said before handing the letter to Anko. After reading the letter, Anko nodded her head and told one Chunin to give Naruto a scroll, as he will be going solo. Once all the Genin teams had their scrolls and standing at their respective gates, Anko gave the signal. Seeing the signal, everyone rushed into the forest. Naruto decided to travel on ground so that there will be more chances where he will encounter other teams. The thought turned out to be true because after traveling for fifteen minutes, he encountered a Genin team from Rain.
"Hand over your scroll and we will not kill you." An Ame Genin said.
" Hell no! If you want my scroll, you can get it off my dead body!" Naruto shouted getting into the shadowless style. The Ame team rushed at Naruto intending to punch him all at the same time. However, their plan failed because Naruto Shushined out of harms way. Naruto quickly sent a chakra-enhanced punch to the Genin who told him to surrender in the head making him unconscious. Changing to the viper style, Naruto threw some smoke bombs to distract the enemies. Naruto than activated the Jūbigan thus allowing him to see through the smoke. Stalking his enemy, Naruto waited for the Kunoichi to turn around before jumping towards her and grabbing her head in a three-quarter facelock using one hand while being parallel to the ground. Using some momentum, Naruto slammed the Kunoichi's face into the ground in the form of a cutter (RKO) knocking her out instantly. The last Genin ran towards Naruto but Naruto gave him a hard but kick before positioning his opponent's head in between his legs. Naruto than reaches under the Genin's shoulders and threading his arms up and around the torso before jumping up and slamming his opponent's face into the ground (Pedigree) knocking the final Genin out. Once Naruto made sure that Ame Genins are unconscious, Naruto searched through their body and found out that they had a Heaven scroll which is the same as well.
" Oh well, having one more of the same scroll does not hurt either." Naruto thought to himself before walking away from the scene. After walking for another three hour, Naruto came into a clearing where he saw three Kusa Genins surrounding Yugito and her team.
" Let's kill the boy and have some fun with the girls." One Kusa Genin said and the rest agreed. Suddenly, they felt large amount of Killer Intent aiming at them. They turned around to see Naruto standing there. Naruto took out his Kunai and using his way superior speed to kill Eight Kusa Genins leaving the leader alive. Running towards the leader, Naruto gave a hard bicycle kick causing him to fall on the ground, disorientated. Naruto than used his left hand in between the leader's legs while his right hand is placed on the opposite shoulder lifting him up into a reverse position where the head is facing the ground. Naruto then sent chakra to his feet before jumping quite high into the sky before going back down. The momentum was so great that upon impact, the head of the leader is buried in the ground.(Tombstone Pile-driver)
"Thanks for helping us even though we do not really need it." Karui said.
"Well, I just wanted to release some steam and try out some new moves I learnt.
"What was that move you used just now?" Omoi asked.
"That is known as a Tombstone Pile-driver. Even by some miracle he is still alive, his Shinobi career is over since he will be paralyzed for life." Naruto replied while searching dead bodies. He found another Heaven scroll and two Earth scroll.
"What scroll do you guys have?" Naruto asked Yugito.
"We only have an Earth scroll why?" Yugito asked. Without saying anything, Naruto threw a Heaven scroll at Yugito.
" I already have two Heaven scrolls already so take it" Naruto stated.
"Thanks but why are you helping us?" Yugito asked curious.
"No reason just felt like it. It's getting late so why don't we set camp for the night and go to the tower tomorrow together?" Naruto asked. After discussing with her team, Yugito turned to Naruto and said "why not? Since you already helped us so much, we will hunt for some meat while you stay here and set up the fire." Hearing this Naruto nodded his head and created some clones to help him gather branches and twigs for the fire. After hunting for an hour, Yugito and her team came back with a wild boar and three ducks. Omoi used his sword to skin both the boar and ducks before cutting into smaller pieces to make cooking easier. Naruto than used a small fireball to start a fire. While cooking and eating they traded stories about their mission.
"Hey Naruto, yesterday I heard that you have the solution to paperwork care to share with us?" Karui asked.
"Sure, but first tell me if I was to use the lighting clone will I get the information gained by the clone?" Naruto asked.
"Yes it will why?" Omoi asked.
"Just tell the Raikage to use the Lightning clones to do the paperwork." Naruto replied. There was silence for a while before Yugito decided to speak.
"I can't believe that the answer is right under our noses! Now the Raikage would not have to break anymore walls and complaining about paperwork!" Yugito exclaimed. Hearing this, it made Naruto sweat drop because he never knew that someone out there will over react more than the Hokage. That night, Naruto volunteered to look out for enemies. He created a dozen clones and had them henge into different objects. They will disappear once they spotted enemies giving the original the position. Naruto shift ended when Omoi woke up and replaced Naruto. He decided to keep the clones just in case. The next morning, Naruto and the Kumo team ate the leftovers from the day before. Once they finished, they headed towards the tower. Along the way, they were ambushed by some ninjas but Naruto and Omoi quickly dealt with it. After traveling for over three hours, they finally made it to the tower.
"What should we do now?" Karui asked.
" I believe that we have to open the scroll." Naruto said before opening his while the Kumo team followed suit. Smoke filled the room and once it was gone, Iruka and a guy with large muscles could be seen.
"Iruka Sensei, what are you doing here?" Naruto asked.
"I just came to congratulate you on passing the second exam. So you decided to follow another team here. Smart choice considering that it is hard to fight alone in the forest." Iruka said.
" Naruto, this is our Sensei Killer Bee." Yugito introduced the heavily muscled man.
"Naruto, the man contains the Hachibi, Gyūki." Kurama said.
"Hello Mr Eight, it's nice to meet you." Naruto said.
"It's nice to meet you as well Mr Nine." Killer Bee replied.
"You guys have three days to rest and get ready. I will show you around this tower." Iruka said before leading the Genins inside. He showed them where the canteen is and their respective rooms before leaving. Naruto decided to start learning how to control Kurama's chakra. Two days later while training, an ANBU came to find him.
"Naruto Uzumaki, you are summoned by the Hokage." The ANBU said.
"Ok, I will be there in a sec." Naruto said before using his own version of the Shushin to go to the Hokage Tower. When he was there, he noticed that Anko, Kakashi, Sasuke and Sakura there.
"Naruto, I have called you here because I believe that you are the only that can help Anko and Sasuke here." The Hokage said.
"What do you mean by that?" Naruto asked.
"I know you have been studying both Fūinjutsu and Juinjutsu. You also promised Anko here to remove her cursed seal as well." The Hokage commented.
"How do you know? Forget I asked that question, you used that crystal ball of yours to spy on me didn't you?" Naruto asked.
"I would not say spying but looking out for you." The Hokage said.
"Fine, I have managed to make some process in the Cursed Seal of Heaven. The only problem left is to remove the soul of Orochimaru. Give me till the end of the Chunin exams to find an answer. For now, I will use a suppression seal on Sasuke. This seal will only survive on will power so for extra security, it is linked to me as well. Only I can remove that seal." Naruto said while unsealing his scrolling supplies. Naruto drew up the required seals before putting them on Sasuke's neck before shouting: " Sealing Technique: The Chained gates!" and slamming his chakra coated hands on the seals making it glow. After a while, the glow died down and the new seal could be seen on Sasuke's neck.
"Tell me, did you use your Sharingan when Orochimaru bite you?" Naruto asked.
"Yes he did why?" Sasuke asked weary.
"Oh well, this means that I have sealed away your Sharingan as well." Naruto replied causally.
"What! I spent one whole month learning how to use the Sharingan from Kakashi and now you say that I can't use it!" Sasuke shouted.
"Chill, it's not like it will be locked forever." Naruto commented.
"Hokage Sama may I ask why Naruto is allowed to take the exams on his own?" Kakashi asked not guessing that Naruto has been pulled out of Team 7 already.
"Well, I kind of left something in there so I needed Naruto to get it for me. I trust Naruto because if anyone else got it, they will die of nosebleed." The Hokage replied with a straight face.
"Oh, ok then." Kakashi said trusting the Hokage's words.
"Now if there is nothing else, dismissed!" The Hokage commanded. Once everyone left the room, the Hokage created a few clones to do the paperwork while he went to read Icha Icha Paradise. The next day, Naruto was called to the arena.
"It seems that there are still too many competitors. Oh well, this means that there will be a preliminary round than." Anko stated.
"Congratulations for making this far into the exams but Anko is right there is still too many competitors. The examiner for this preliminary round is going to be Hayate." The Hokage said.
"Now, the matches will be decided from this big screen. It will generate two random names and they would have to fight each other. Now start the machine." Hayate said before the big screen begun to buzz.
"The first set of competitors will be Naruto Uzumaki VS Omoi. The rest of the competitors please go up to the balcony. Once Everyone except for Naruto and Omoi left, Hayate continued.
"Are both competitors ready? If so than Hajime!" Hayate shouted. When Omoi heard the signal, he took out his sword while Naruto took out his sledgehammer. Running at each other, Omoi tried to slash at Naruto but the Sledgehammer blocked his sword. Naruto used his great strength to push Omoi away before trying to slam the head of the sledgehammer into Omoi's stomach but Omoi managed to dodge it. This time Omoi tried to stab Naruto but before the sword could connect it broke.
"What the hell happened?" Omoi asked shocked.
"That would be my chakra shield that I just activated." Naruto replied before using this opportunity to take a swing at Omoi but Omoi managed to dodge it.
"Lightning release: False Darkness!" Omoi shouted after flashing through the required hand seals. He than shoots a lightning spear out of his mouth aimed at Naruto. Thinking quickly, Naruto flashed through a few hand signs before shouting "Fire Release: fire ball Jutsu!" Naruto than opened his mouth and shot out a large fireball hitting the lightning spear cancelling it out. Without giving Omoi a chance to rest Naruto went for another shot at the guts this time using the other end of the sledgehammer. Omoi was about to dodge that as well by going behind Naruto but that turned out to be a bed mistake. Naruto swung the sledgehammer in reverse making the head hit Omoi straight in the guts making him bend over. Seeing the chance, Naruto quickly got into position and gave Omoi the Pedigree knocking him out.
"Winner of the first match, Naruto Uzumaki!" Hayate announced.
Up at the balcony:
"No way, how does young Naruto know that move?" Gai asked.
"Gai Sensei what is that move?" Lee asked.
"That move is known as the Pedigree. I see so young Naruto managed to learn how to fight like the man known as Triple H. Even the way he uses the sledgehammer is similar." Gai commented.
"Who is Triple H?" Tenten asked this time.
" His full name was Hunter Hearst Helmsley and he was a warrior known for using a sledgehammer as his weapon. To see that Naruto is able to use Triple H's style is quite amazing." Gai replied.
Back at the on the ground, Hayate announced the next match between Yugito and Kiba.
"Akamaru let's do this!" Kiba shouted before Akamaru transformed into another Kiba.
"Fang Passing Fang!" Kiba shouted before both Akamaru and Kiba started to spin at ferocious speed but Yugito managed to stop it as she used the Electric Shield Jutsu before blasting Kiba with a large amount of electricity making Kiba unconscious.
"Winner of the second match Yugito!" Hayate announced.
(Going to skip all the matches)
"Now that all the matches are done, there will be a one month break before the finals. The matches for the finals will be announced on the day itself. I hope that your skills will improve during that one month. Now if there is nothing else, your Sensei will lead you guys out of this forest." The Hokage announced before he Shushined back to his office.
