Naruto and Crow, who due to being unmasked, was revealed to be Kenshi Kagemori, were in a grassy training field. "So what are ya teaching me today," Naruto asked?
"Well Naruto, I hope to impart to you how to fly," Kenshi responded.
Naruto's eyes lit up in response, shouting, "Awesome!"
"Just kidding." Naruto's eagerness was killed in an instant. "Now, as you have good chakra control due to years of tutelage, and have enough stealth techniques under your belt, we are going to determine your affinity, and move from there."
Naruto's eyes once again lit up, but then confusion crossed his face, and asked, "Isn't that meant for upper level Chunin and Jonin?"
Crow let out a deep breath in response, before saying, "Kid, you're in ANBU. Despite your limited skills, you need to know how to do something interesting."
Naruto let out an ah, then looked annoyed and asked, "Did you just call me weak?"
Kenshi ignored him and held out a small piece of paper to Naruto. Naruto took it and channeled his Chakra into it. Nothing happened. "Ah, I guess you have no talent for elemental techniques Naruto. Maybe we should just toss you from ANBU," Crow said nonchalantly.
Naruto meanwhile, had a look of utter despair. "I'm a total failure," he said to himself.
Crow looked at Naruto with a sad face, before he started smirking. Then chuckling. Then laughing. Naruto looked with anger at Kenshi, most likely for his joy in his own despair. Then Crow spoke up, "Naruto," he chuckled, "Try it one more time," handing him a similar piece of paper.
Naruto complied, and with a look of amazement, the paper split in two. "Wind type," he said to himself.
"Naruto, just wanted you to know the first piece of paper was just that. A piece of paper," Kenshi said with mirth in his voice.
After several moments, a look of comprehension dawned on Naruto's face. "Bastard! You tricked me," Naruto shouted out in anger at Kenshi.
"Naruto, what have I said about uncreative insults. Your level of wit still amazes me, despite being in my presence for such a long time," Crow responded with a chiding tone.
Naruto would have retorted, but then stopped himself. Fifteen seconds later, two Chunin walked into the field. The two had disappeared without a trace, with the two Chunin never being the wiser of their Naruto and Crow ever having been there.
They reappeared in another training ground, one reserved for ANBU. "Well, shall we start your training?" Crow asked, for the mask was donned once more.
