====Konoha Stadium: Chunin Exams Finals: 5 Minutes After Naruto Returned to the Competitors Box====
"The Match 4 of the finals will be Hyūga Hinata vs Aburame Shino... both fighters come down..." said Genma. The Hyūga heir and the Aburame heir went to the arena to face each other.
"Hinata, I hope we will have a good fight... do not go easy on me thinking of hurting me..." said Shino.
"I know Shino... I'm fighting here to prove myself... to prove I'm not a failure... Byakugan..." Hinata stated herself and activated her doujutsu to fight the bug user with everything she has. Shino nodded with amusement to see Hinata's determination.
"Fighters... BEGIN..." shouted Genma.
Meanwhile in the darkest depths of Konoha, the Shinobi no Kami (God of Shinobi) resides. Danzo never thought in his life that the mother and son duo would be that strong that they would easily wipe out his ANBU. Elder Koharu and Elder Homura already went to Shisha no Kuni (Land of the Dead) and only he was left to fight the duo.
"Itachi, Mikoto... you two devastated my plans already... I won't tolerate this anymore..." said Danzo.
"You told me what I wanted to say Elder Danzo... sorry you are not and Elder anymore thanks to Hokage-sama... your time has come to go to graves for the crimes you did to Konoha..." said Mikoto.
"You Uchiha are talking about crimes... don't make me laugh... it was your clan which betrayed Konoha... I think I have to use my pawns here for you two..." said Danzo, he formed the hand seals tiger - snake - dog - dragon and clapped hands.
Itachi didn't lose his calm demeaner even after he saw two caskets came out from the ground, but his eyes were widened slightly when the caskets opened.
"Kuchiyose: Edo Tensei (Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation)..." said Danzo. The doors of the caskets fell, and two men came out from the casket. The first one was a teenager wearing Konoha ANBU gear and the second one was a middle-aged man wearing a kimono and both of them had Uchiha crest on their clothes.
"Shisui... Fugaku..." Mikoto whispered in shock.
"I have been summoned, for what purpose?" Fugaku opened his eyes with a mature sharingan to see his wife and oldest son in front of him, "Mikoto... Itachi... looks like some years may have passed since the Uchiha Massacre... how are you alive Mikoto?"
"Uchiha clan's death? What happened Itachi after I died? You didn't use my eye? You are now a rouge ninja?" questioned Shisui.
"I should apologize for not going with your plan Shisui... I killed the Uchiha clan and became Konoha's biggest traitor to save the village... I'm requested again to save the village by the previous Hokage and the current Hokage..." explained Itachi.
"I used Izanagi to fake my death for my sons... yet I failed as a mother..." said Mikoto.
"Something happened to Sasuke? Is he walking the path I once walked?" questioned Fugaku.
"Worse..." said Mikoto.
"So, who is the Hokage now?" asked Shisui.
"Uzumaki Kushina... thanks to Danzo and Orochimaru she survived that day and was saved by Naruto..." answered Mikoto.
"So that woman is alive... I'm glad I died... it's a nice joke..." said Fugaku.
"You had a good family reunion... now kill each other..." ordered Danzo.
"Elder Danzo... it's you again... what do you want now?" asked Shisui.
"Crumble the leaf and take my Root into the light..." ordered Danzo.
"I see... I think the leaf won't crumble this time as well..." Shisui eyes turned into mangekyo sharingan and his body shook for a moment, "You shouldn't underestimate Kotoamatsukami's powers... I'm now free from your control Elder Danzo and this time I will take you down..." said Shisui.
Danzo never thought Shisui would place himself under Kotoamatsukami to escape from his clutch, "Fugaku, crumble the leaf for me."
"I'm no longer living, and a dead man has no dreams, but I'll fight this time to show the strength of the Uchiha..." Fugaku's eyes turned into mangekyo and looked at Itachi, "Amaterasu..."
Itachi quickly shielded himself with Susano'o and countered the black flames with Yata no Kagami (Yata Mirror). Fugaku found his body burning with the black flames and quickly extinguished the flames.
"Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)..." Fugaku shot a giant fireball towards Itachi and Mikoto.
Itachi swung his Susano'o blade to cut the fire. Fugaku jumped away and a bunch of explosive tags struck there and blasted making the cave shake violently. Mikoto took the opportunity and formed her Susano'o to throw a spear towards Fugaku.
"Mikoto, you have the mangekyo sharingan..." said Fugaku in surprise.
"I have the eternal mangekyo sharingan... I unlocked my mangekyo the night and replaced my eyes with yours..." said Mikoto.
"I see then I have to use more strength..." Fugaku's body glowed red and red ethereal chakra covered his body with a sword in his hands.
"You have Susano'o!" shouted Mikoto.
"Yes... unlike others my Susano'o doesn't need to form fully, and I can cover myself with its armor only..." said Fugaku.
====Meanwhile====
Danzo's body reformed again and the 3rd sharingan closed meaning Shisui defeated him three time, Shisui spoke, "You can't win Elder Danzo... unlike when I was alive you can't weaken me now..." said Shisui.
"Then I have to take the ultimate measure by now... I have waisted too much time and I have great within my range..." Danzo uncovered his bandage eye which morphed into Shisui's mangekyo sharingan, "Kotoamatsukami..."
Mikoto and Fugaku was fighting against each other in their Susano'o and Fugaku had an upper hand despite he had only mangekyo. Both of them stopped their fight while Shisui's Edo Tensei (Impure World Reincarnation) mangekyo spun wildly towards Danzo. The three of them looked at Danzo who was frozen at the same point.
"What happened?" Mikoto saw Itachi was standing in front of her in his Susano'o holding the Yata no Kagami (Yata Mirror).
"The Yata no Kagami (Yata Mirror)... no matter what weapon you use either physical or spiritual it will deflect the attack... Danzo is now in the genjutsu... now release the Edo Tensei (Impure World Reincarnation)..." ordered Itachi. Danzo nodded and released the Edo Tensei (Impure World Reincarnation) like a puppet with Fugaku and Shisui's soul started to leave from their body.
"So, my time is over for a second time... Itachi, Mikoto, live and take the Uchiha clan into its former glory... and take care of Sasuke... make sure he won't go down the same path I went..." said Fugaku as his final wish, with that, his soul left completely.
"Thank you..." Mikoto said as she cried slightly seeing her lover leave this word once more.
"Itachi... the future of the Uchiha clan is in your hands... you did what you had to, and I know you will do better..." said Shisui, Itachi simply nodded and let Shisui's soul go to the pure world.
"Now only Danzo remains... what will you do about Danzo?" asked Mikoto.
"I'll trap Danzo's soul into a genjutsu world by my Totsuka no Tsurugi (Sword of Totsuka)..." like Itachi said he activated his Susano'o and pierced Danzo's body with his Totsuka no Tsurugi (Sword of Totsuka). Itachi deactivated the jutsu and bled from his eyes from overuse of using the mangekyo sharingan.
Mikoto quickly grabbed Itachi, "You saved Konoha again Itachi... I know someday everyone will see you as a hero, mark my word my precious son."
"I wanted someone else to be the hero, but he became foolish... he was my hope and even if he chooses the wrong path, he will still be my little brother..." said Itachi.
"I know... we failed to show Sasuke the true way to be a proud man..." Mikoto sighed, "I will do the next part... Amaterasu..." Mikoto burned Danzo's body with everyone in the underground hideout, "Let's go from here..." she shunshined with Itachi away from the base as it collapsed in on itself.
====Meanwhile At the Finals of the Chunin Exams====
"Shugohakke Rokujūyon Shō (Protecting Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms)..." Hinata yelled her technique name and struck down several of Shino's incoming bugs towards her.
Shino was surprised to see Hinata had put him into a corner since every time he tried to place a place female bug or send his bugs towards Hinata, she spotted all of them and strike them down, "I guess my worst matchup is you Hinata... why? Because you can see through every attack I'm trying to pull..."
Hinata panted using too much chakra to put down Shino's bugs, but she smiled weakly, "I hope you aren't mad Shino..."
"This is an official match Hinata, and you are doing what you have to win... and this will be my final attack... prepare yourself Hinata... Hijutsu: Mushidama (Secret Technique: Insect Sphere)..." said Shino.
Hinata saw many beetles came out from Shino's sleeves surrounding her and she gulped slightly, but she calmed herself down quickly and took out something from her pouch and threw it down.
"She is using smoke bombs again?" Shino saw the whole area get covered with black smoke.
"Hakke Kūshō (Eight Trigrams: Air Palm)..." Hinata's voice rang out from the smoke and her air palm helped the black smoke spread quickly.
"This is... gunpowder..." Shino realized where Hinata trapped him and also realized she wasn't only bound by Hyūga taijutsu style but if she needed other techniques she would use them.
Shino watched helplessly as the gunpowder detonated by an explosive tag killing almost every bug he released. Shino was also caught in the explosion and got some burns. The smoke cleared after some minutes revealing Hinata was almost unscratched, and Shino was lying down breathing heavy.
"I-I can't continue anymore..." Shino stuttered out.
"The winner of Match 4 is Hyūga Hinata..." announced Genma.
"I hope you will recover bowed Shino..." Hinata politely bowed to Shino before going to the contestant's box.
====Meanwhile====
"Anego (Elder sister) used Hakkeshō Kaiten (Eight Trigrams: Palm Rotation) to shield herself from the damage," Hanabi said still activating her Byakugan.
"It wasn't a mastered Hakkeshō Kaiten (Eight Trigrams: Palm Rotation)... Hinata just used the technique for a moment to save herself... if it a continuous attack then she couldn't protect herself..." said Hiashi.
====With The Kages====
"Hinata-chan became stronger from what I heard about her..." said Kushina, "What do you think about her Kazekage-dono?"
"Hyūga Hinata is a bit odd since she didn't only rely on Hyūga techniques only which surprised me," said Rasa, "Though I want to see how much she can hold up against you reason in her next match then I'll consider her promotion..."
"I also accept the point..." said Kushina.
====Competitors Box====
"So Hinata will be my opponent in the next round... it well be interesting..." said Naruto.
"Hinata has truly changed from what you old me... she is using her presence of mind wisely not limiting herself in her clan techniques..." said Haku.
"Yeah... you said it right..." said Naruto, "I want to fight her to see how much she can do..."
"Match 5, the final match of the first round will be Uchiha Sasuke vs Yuki Haku... fighters come down..." said Genma. The last ice user and the last Uchiha made their way to the arena.
Though Haku didn't have a good opinion on Sasuke and seeing his glare he sighed, "I hope we can have a good fight Sasuke-san..."
"Give me a break you piece of trash... I'm only here to murder you... then I'll murder that dobe because he is an eyesore but before I murder him, I now know the Kyuubi is in him and the sharingan can control the Kyuubi... I will control the beast to destroy the village then I'll murder every last trash who think themselves as royal... the Kages, Daimyos, everyone... there is only one royal and that's me, the only Uchiha... then I'll burn down this village... Konoha has served me well, but I don't need it anymore so every last trash of Konoha will die by my hands..." Sasuke gave a psychotic grin to Haku, everyone in the stadium started to murmur about what Sasuke said, Sasuke continued, "Oh but don't worry, I won't kill that bitch of Hokage... her place is under my dick, and I'll have that bitch there... and also don't worry about the dobe... I won't murder him before fucking my bitch right here where I stand..." Sasuke's last comment made an uproar in the public and also between the daimyos of the lands.
'He is clearly psychologically unstable... what is Hokage-sama thinking to let him roam freely,' thought Genma and looks at Kushina.
"I see..." icy breath came out when Haku talked, "Then I wish you luck because you will need it to kill me..."
====Meanwhile====
"Seriously he said it in front of everyone... I don't think he will live..." said Shikamaru.
"That boy has lost his mind... he made everyone his enemy..." Juugo saw Naruto was calm and didn't feel any anger in him but facepalm, Minato on the other hand was raging to Kurama on how he said everything.
"Naruto... aren't you pissed at Sasuke? He did openly threaten everyone in Konoha and the daimyos, as well as saying that he is going to rape your Kaa-san..." said Shikamaru.
"Who me? Pissed? On that brat? I have many things to do and many things to think Shikamaru and that one is not included in my list... some dogs can only bark at many things, but they can't bite... even they come to bite their teeth will break..." Naruto said.
"Troublesome... you didn't see how brutally Sasuke attacked Kiba in the prelims..." said Shikamaru.
"I don't need to... Haku was chosen to be a genin because if Sandaime-sama made him a chunin then there would be an uprise from dome political people... he was trained by Momochi Zabuza, an A-ranked assassin and my Kaa-san, an S-ranked kage... he can be considered an A-ranked threat to others so only Sasuke's pride and dreams will be shattered by the end..." said Naruto.
"So, you completely gave up on Sasuke?" asked Shikamaru.
"Yes... I tried many times to show him the reality, but his idiocy won't let him see it and he cleared himself now..." answered Naruto.
"What about Sakura?" asked Shikamaru.
"You know Sakura is more dangerous than Sasuke... she is not an idiot so she can make better plans to harm people..." said Naruto.
"I get it... if Sakura goes to him with something that will harm you then Sasuke will consider it..." concluded Shikamaru.
"Yes... she is already dealt though now let's see what Sasuke will do..." said Naruto.
====With The Kage====
"Hokage-dono what is the meaning of your genin?" questioned Rasa.
"Don't mind him... he is all bark no bite... Sasuke can't defeat Haku..." said Kushina.
"You won't take actions even if one of your genin threatened you and your village?" Rasa questioned Kushina, who looked at Rasa and smiled before watching the match, "So you have planned something... it's not my business to interfere so I won't eventually..."
"Fighters... BEGIN..." shouted Genma.
"Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)..." activating his sharingan he performed the jutsu with the needed hand seals.
Haku was surprised to the enormous fireball but quickly performed his jutsu well, "Hyōton: Hyōheki (Ice Release: Ice Wall)..."
"Hmmp... like some ice can stop my fire..." Sasuke's eyes were widened in rage when Haku's ice blocked his jutsu.
"My ice is stronger than any fire... it will never melt... Hyōton: Tōketsu kyapuchafīrudo (Ice Release: Frozen Capturing Field)...' Haku slammed his hands on the ground to freeze it completely.
Sasuke quickly backflipped many times and stopped at the wall and saw the arena floor completely frozen, Sasuke jumped back at the floor to slip and fell down on his butt.
Haku laughed, "Almighty Uchiha-sama fell down on slippery ice..." Haku mocked Sasuke.
"That's it... Katon: Kaen hōsha-ki no Jutsu (Fire Release: Flamethrower Technique)..." quickly unleashing the jutsu he melted the ice leaving only a pool of water behind, "Now what will do?"
"It seems you don't follow plans which Kakashi made for you..." Haku started to perform some hand seals, with Sasuke sharingan he copied the hand seals, Haku called his jutsu out, "Suiton: Kirigakure no Jutsu (Water Release: Hidden Mist Technique)..."
The copied jutsu took a good amount of Sasuke's chakra since water wasn't his element. The whole arena was covered in mist, and nobody could see anything in there.
"In the art of silent killing you have no chance against me... your red eyes are also disabled now..." Haku's voice through the whole arena.
"DAMN IT FIGHT ME FACE TO FACE YOU INSOLENT FOOL... TOP BEING A COWARD..." Sasuke shouted.
"We're not warriors Sasuke... we are shinobi, and we work in the shadows..." said Haku. Sasuke got a cold sweat since Haku's voice was heard behind him with a kunai placed on his throat.
"Say goodbye Sasuke..." Haku said coldly.
