CHAPTER 13
Poll still open and reviews still wanted.
"we waste time looking for the perfect lover, instead of creating the perfect love"- Tom Robbins
The remaining three months of the academy were boring for Naruto and Sasuke and there were only a few highlights for them. One of these moments was when Naruto and Sasuke started having daily shogi games with Shikamaru.
A few others were when they met the prominent clan heirs like Shino Aburame, Hinata Hyuga, and Kiba Inuzuka on good terms, Choji Akimichi, and Ino Yamanaka when she wasn't begging Naruto and Sasuke for a date.
Sasuke didn't think much of her but Naruto said that one girl Sakura Haruno had a good chance of being a shinobi if she lost the fangirl part of her. When Sasuke asked Naruto why he thought this he explained that he could sense that her chakra levels were low but control was almost perfect so he explained she would be a good genjutsu or medic-nin.
All the genin hopefuls were now in their seats awaiting to take their test to become genin. When Iruka walked in all the students were surprisingly quiet even the fangirls. "your first exam will be a written exam to test what you learned" Iruka said and chuckled when Naruto and Sasuke groaned.
The result were what Iruka expected Sasuke Naruto and Shikamaru finished fast and put their heads down while the others just took their time and calmly finished or were sweating bullets. "now that were done with the exam while I have someone grade the exams we are all going outside for your accuracy ninjutsu and taijutsu tests" Iruka said.
The students were called one at a time to throw eight kunai and then eight shuriken. Naruto and Sasuke got 8/8 without trying Sakura got 5/6 which was decent Kiba got 7/6 which was good and Shino got a 6/7 which like Kiba was good. Hinata was a little hesitant but got an 8/6 which surprised some Ino got a 6/5 similar to Sakura Choji got a 7/7 and Shikamaru lazily threw a 6/6 which made Naruto smirk.
"alright next is taijutsu" Iruka said. The goal was to get three hits on Iruka or to not leave the taijutsu circle for four minutes. Naruto Shikamaru Sasuke and Shino just dodged for the time while getting a few good hits. Ino and Sakura barely made the four minutes while Hinata used her byakugan to land three hits on Iruka.
Everyone else either passed or failed easily. "alright class the last portion is ninjutsu you have to use the substitution transformation and clone jutsus to pass and for extra credit you can do any other jutsu you know" Iruka said.
All the clan heirs passed and used one of their clan jutsus while Sakura just did the academy three then came Naruto and Sasukes turn. Naruto and Sasuke both easily used the substitution and transformation but had to use a kage bunshin for the clone jutsu since they had too much chakra to do a simple clone.
Now it was Naruto and Sasukes turn to use a jutsu and Sasuke was first. 'I guess I will do a simple one to show them some fire' Sasuke thought.
"Katon: Dragon fire" Sasuke said as he aim his jutsu at the sky. 'incredible a c-rank elemental jutsu Sasuke is indeed an Uchiha' Iruka thought. Everyone in the class was in awe Sasuke just shot a giant fire jutsu in the sky while Naruto just smirked knowing that wasn't even the tip of Sasukes skill.
"good job Sasuke that was an impressive fire jutsu you receive the bonus points Naruto your up" Iruka said. 'alright let's do this' Naruto thought and then faced a tree and then formed a hand sign but suddenly stooped "what is it Naruto what did you sense?" Sasuke asked knowing Narutos skills.
Naruto then smirked "it seems jiji and the jounin are enjoying watching us with that damn ball of his" Naruto said. Everyone in the hokages office was unmoving "incredible to sense us this far away and know it was me how powerful is your skill though Naruto" Hiruzen said aloud. Many of the jounin just nodded having similar thoughts.
"you know since you're interested in this test jiji I will show you something to remember" Naruto said while everyone but Sasuke and Iruka looked at him like he was funny. Naruto then switched his hand seal to a pray like hand seal.
"I wonder jiji how good was Tobirama-jiji I never met him so you will have to tell me if I measure up to him" Naruto said. 'Naruto you couldn't possibly be doing that are you' Sasuke thought with slight worry since everyone was close to Naruto.
"hokage-sama what is Naruto talking about Tobirama is nindaime-samas name" a jounin said. "when Tsunade was eighteen her and Jiraiya had a son you know him as Minato Namikaze my successor" Hiruzen said and everyone in the room gasped in surprise. "due to their age and the war going on they feared for Minatos safety so they gave him a different last name and put him in konohas orphanage, but when Minato was hokage his secret wife Kushina Uzumaki was pregnant with Minatos son Naruto" Hiruzen said.
Every person in the room was dead silent in surprise "due to his parents Naruto is the son of the fourth hokage and konohas red death Kushina Uzumaki, grandson of Jiraiya and Tsunade Senju and because of Tsunade the great grandson and nephew of the first and second hokages" Hiruzen said.
"that's incredible" a jounin shouted which caused everyone else in the room to start talking. "that actually explains his sensing skill now that I think about it, but I still don't know what he means about measuring up to Tobirama-sensei unless…" but before Hiruzen could finish what he said everyone looked back to the image the crystal ball was displaying when they heard Sasuke shout "everyone back up from Naruto!" Sasuke yelled.
Back at the academy everyone suddenly backed away do to Sasukes warning. That is when Naruto smirked and changed hand signs and laid both his hand flat and brought them near his chest. Suddenly in a massive surge water exploded out from around Naruto and surrounded him when they heard him shout Suiton: Water Wall, the water them picked up incredible speed and swirled around Naruto acting as a defense.
After about a minute Naruto released the water Jutsu and the water around him slowed down, but when he released the jutsu the massive amount of water he made dropped down around him. 'amazing he created water from the air just like nindaime-sama' Iruka thought.
'so that was your play I thought you would use the other one I guess not' Sasuke thought. Inside the hokage office everyone was wide eyed and speechless. "anbu summon the council and Naruto and Sasuke jounin stay here" Hiruzen said all he got was a "hai Hokage-sama" from everyone.
"Iruka-sensei can you give Sasuke his headband we have to go see jiji now his anbu are already on the way" Naruto said. Iruka was speechless "uh ya but what about yours?" Iruka asked. Naruto then smirked and pulled out a scroll and unsealed something. Naruto took the object and put it on his face and then turned to Iruka "I've got mine covered sensei" Naruto said.
Iruka looked at Naruto to see that he was wearing a faceplate that covered his forehead and cheeks with the leaf insignia in the middle of it. "right uh here Sasuke the team placements are in a week so be here" Iruka said. Sasuke nodded and took the headband and then followed Naruto to the Hokages office.
"you know that since all the jounin were watching everyone is going to request us for their teams" Sasuke said. Naruto nodded "I kind of figured but I know jiji will put us on the right teams" Naruto said. It was then the anbu jumped in front of them "Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Namikaze you are requested by the hokage" the anbu said.
"hai hai we were just on our way there" Naruto said as he kept walking. Sasuke chuckled lightly when the anbu just disappeared "come on Naruto lets go no more time should be wasted" Sasuke said. Naruto just nodded and both started hopping on the rooftops to get their faster.
Inside the Hokages office the council had just assembled while the jounin were still talking about what they saw. "what is the meaning of this Sarutobi the anbu said this was an emergency meeting" Danzo said.
"that's because it is Danzo I have called the council here to discuss what I and all the jounin here just witnessed" Hiruzen said. "well what was it?" Danzo asked. Before he could answer there was a loud cough drawing everyone's attention to Naruto and Sasuke who just arrived.
Naruto then walked forward to Danzo and held out his hand for a handshake, Danzo slowly shakes Narutos hand. "I believe that you called this meeting to discuss mine and Sasukes skills correct jiji?" Naruto asked. Hiruzen nodded his head and was about to speak before Naruto held up his hand.
"before we discuss that Hokage-sama I must ask something" Naruto said, Hiruzen allowed him since he was shocked Naruto called him Hokage-sama. Naruto then turned to Danzo "your name was Danzo correct?" Naruto asked. Danzo nodded his head before Naruto looked to Sasuke with a fierce look that Sasuke understood, Naruto basically just said stay cool and be ready for anything.
"I was curious as to how you injured your arm and eye those are two uncommon injuries for shinobi" Naruto said. Before Danzo could speak Naruto continued "I am curious because your arm and eye are not injured so I was curious why your eye is a sharingan and your shoulder is Hashirama-jiji's dna" Naruto said.
While he didn't show it on the outside Danzo was sweating on the inside. "I know you were not here when jiji used his crystal ball because I didn't sense you so I will ask you again why you have Senju and Uchiha dna in your body." Naruto asked.
Everyone was looking between Naruto and Danzo except for Sasuke whose blood was boiling at the idea of someone stealing the sharingan. Naruto suddenly stiffened and held up a hand seal and said "seal" Danzo then screamed and fell to the floor.
"I will be the first to announce this Danzo since no one knows, I am the jinchuriki of the kyuubi so your genjutsu won't work on me also I placed a seal on you that has two purposes one to drain your chakra two is to keep you restrained so I will ask one last time and this time I except an answer" here Naruto walked up to Danzo and removed the bandages around his eye and pulled his arm out from his sleeve.
Danzos eye showed a sharingan while his arm had more wrappings that Naruto removed to show more sharingan on his arm and his shoulder looked like Hashirama's head. "why do you have Senju and Uchiha dna Danzo?" Naruto asked with a cold voice that even slightly scared Hiruzen.
"like I would ever tell you anything" Danzo choked out he then pulled his shirt to the side to show a seal. Narutos eyes narrowed "Sasuke do it" Naruto said, everyone was so focused on Naruto and Danzo they didn't see Sasukes eyes change to a six point star for a second before he closed his eye and it was normal and then Danzo fell over dead the seal on his body vanishing.
"traitorous scum" Naruto said before he threw Danzos body in the air where Sasuke proceeded to burn it with a Katon jutsu. "Naruto what the Fuck just happened!" Hiruzen shouted out. "Danzo was a traitor hokage-sama when I sensed his chakra a noticed it was part Senju and Uchiha so I questioned him about it when he refused to answer I activated the seal I placed on him when we shook hands and finally that seal on Danzos body was a suicide seal its used to destroy one's body so no evidence is left behind but to activate it you have to be alive. That is why I had Sasuke use a genjutsu to interrogate him and then kill him when he was done" Naruto said.
Hiruzen sighed deeply "I'm really too old for this shit" he said. "why don't you try to get ba-chan to take the job then?" Naruto asked. Here Hiruzen looked up " that's actually not a bad idea but back to the reason you came here before you started killing my corrupt council I was curious as to your skill in Suiton jutsu" Hiruzen said.
Naruto shrugged "I don't think it has anything to do with Tobirama-jiji one day when I was practicing my Suiton with Sasuke when I remembered how ba-chan said Tobirama-jiji was able to pull water from the air so I tried it and I was successful so I practiced with the skill until I thought for my current level it was good enough" Naruto said.
"very well that's all I needed you and Sasuke for you may leave now" Hiruzen said. "actually jiji since the clan heads are all here I would like to give them my assessment of their children including civilian council member Haruno" Naruto said. "very well what do you have to say Naruto-kun?" Hiruzen asked.
"I will start with Hinata first I have noted that she is very kind but also shy which I gather she gets from being degraded" here Naruto turned to Hiashi "if I may be so bold Hyuga-san I don't believe your teaching methods work for Hinata I can tell she understands what it means to be a ninja and will kill when necessary but she is also kind so a kind approach would help her learn better" Naruto said.
"next is Kiba he like all Inuzuka is very loyal and cares about his partner but he has many faults. He is very loud and brash and always tries to prove he is alpha although less so after I kicked his ass a couple times. Again like Inuzukas he is loyal to a fault so if you were in trouble he would have your back" Naruto said.
"that brings me to my point of why I brought them up first Hyuga-san Inuzuka-san with Kiba's loud and energetic attitude and Hinata's shy nature I believe they would make a good couple that would help increase their ninja skills and even each other out" Naruto said.
"your very smart Namikaze-san and I would say you are making big claims if they were not true and you may call me Hiashi, but I would also like your opinion on how to help Hinata since I believe you have an idea" Hiashi said.
Naruto nodded "I do but you all may just call me Naruto, but what I have noticed from when Hinata uses the juken style is that it is to strict for her, Hinata-san is very flexible so the style does not work for her since it is strict and precise I recommend letting her make her own style while encouraging and helping in any way possible. This method would not only boost her confidence but would make her stronger." Naruto said.
Hiashi nodded his head, then Tsume spoke "and what of Kiba-kun Naruto-san" Tsume said. "well Inuzuka-san" "Tsume" "right Tsume-san like I said Kiba believes himself alpha to everyone so in the future he would try and hit on people to show that which would be confused as him being perverted so the best solution is for him to one be shown how he is not always alpha and two to find a shy person much like Hinata who would play into him trying to be dominant over things this would also show Kiba the meaning of protecting what's precious" Naruto said and Tsume nodded her head in thought.
"Naruto-san I am Shibi Aburame I would like your opinion on my son Shino" Shibi said. "well like a normal Aburame he is reserved and very logical and I still haven't discovered if you guys wear the glasses to hide your eyes or if you have sun sensitive eyes. But other than time and skill the only thing I would improve is trying to make him less stoic he could lighten up a bit" Naruto said.
"I am Inoichi Yamanaka and my daughter is Ino" Inoichi said. "well Inoichi-san your daughter has great skill as a kunoichi but her problem is she has fangirl tendencies so in order to fully bloom shall we say, she needs to lose those tendencies, not to mention I wouldn't have to constantly watch my back" Naruto said although mumbling that last part to himself.
"Naruto I am Choza Akimichi and my son is Choji" Choza said. "ah Choji is a very fine person Choza-san but that is also his downfall during spars he never wants to hit his friends even though it is a spar, other than his kind nature which isn't bad he is very strong and I believe he is a very good person" Naruto said.
"I am Mebuki Haruno what of my daughter Sakura" Mebuki asked. "well Sakura has very low chakra levels for someone her age also she is even more of a fangirl then Ino but I have watched her use her chakra and she has very high chakra control so if she broke her fangirl tendencies she would be a very good genjutsu or medic-nin" Naruto said. Mebuki looked slightly down at that but smiled when Naruto gave her some praise and a description of the ninja type she could be.
"troublesome I'm Shikaku Nara my son is Shikamaru" Shikaku said. "well as expected of Nara's Shikamaru is lazy and carefree but I have seen him with Choji and he is very nice to those around him also like most Nara under the lazy he is very smart as shown when he beat me a few times in shogi if I am to be totally honest other then Sasuke I believe Shikamaru would be the only person in our class to even be a challenge" Naruto said and many were surprised by this.
"and of course Mikoto-chan you know Sasuke is the worst possible teammate and best friend" Naruto said sarcastically. Sasuke then pushed Naruto lightly "ass" Sasuke said, Naruto then laughed very loudly. "again though if I was honest Sasuke is a very strong ninja and is the only person I would truly fear in going full out in our class, like I said before Shikamaru has a good mind and is good but full out Sasuke is the only one I believe I would have a chance to lose to" Naruto said completely serious.
"very well those observations were very good you two may leave and rest for the week before the team placement" Hiruzen said. Naruto and Sasuke nodded before they left to wait for the end of the week.
