Chapter 2
* QUEST INFO *
DESCRIPTION: Pass Hatake Kakashi's Test and become Genin.
GOALS:
[0/1] Pass
CAUTION: You will not get to be a ninja if you fail.
"You will regret saying that."
Naruto pulled Kasaka's Venomous Fang from his inventory. Naruto activated his Active Skill [Sprint] as he dashed at Kakashi. Kakashi was surprised but he quickly used Kawarimi and swapped with a Wood.
Naruto stabbed the Wood. Kakashi realised this was the right time to attack as he kicked Naruto before Naruto could remove the Fang from the Log. Naruto was hit with the kick and was sent flying. Thankfully, Naruto had consumed Kasaka's Venom and gained the passive skill [Rasaka's Armored Scales].
"Shinobi Fighting Lesson #1. Taijutsu. I will teach you about it."
The Clones were surprised as they were expecting Kakashi to pull out some kind of weapon.
"What's wrong? Hurry up and attack me. I just want to know what happens next. But don't worry, it won't make a difference against you guys."
Naruto got angry as he used [Tajuu Kage Bunshin Jutsu]. But Kakashi did not look impressed at the amount of Clone that were there, even though mentally he was impressed.
"This won't change a thing. Zero Multiplied by 10000 is still Zero."
Naruto got angry as he felt humiliated. Everyone of his Clones used a Sprint and tried to hit Kakashi but Kakashi was fast enough to evade them while also dispelling them. The Original Naruto saw this and decided that it was the time to use his Remaining Points and put them all on Agility.
Kakashi was surprised at the Sudden increase in speed but Kakashi still outspeed Naruto. Kakashi came behind Naruto and knocked him out.
Sometimes later…
"Oh you are up. Good. Eat then I will give you another chance. But don't give any to Sakura. If you do, I will fail you."
Naruto looked at his side and saw that Sakura was the one that was tied to the stum. Well, she was certainly the weakest of them. Kakashi disappeared in a swirl of leaves.
Naruto looked around to make sure that Kakashi was not there. When he was sure that Kakashi had gone, Naruto lifted the Bento Box towards Sakura. Sasuke had done the same at the same time.
"But Kakashi-Sensei told me not to feed me."
Sasuke and Naruto shared a look. Sasuke was the one that spoke.
"You are already weak. Not eating will just make you weaker. Just eat, Sensei won't know."
But that was where Sasuke was wrong as Kakashi appeared before them. He had an angry look. But then he smiled.
"You all passed. A Ninja must see underneath and those who break the rules are trash but those who don't take care of comrades are lower than trash."
Naruto looked at Kakashi and felt that he was super cool. Kakashi then led them to a Stone with multiple names carved into it.
"Look at this. The numerous names carved on the stone. These are the ninjas who are recognized as the heroes of the Village. But they are not just normal heroes. They are all heroes who died while on Duty. This is a Memorial for them. I hope you won't get your name written here."
Kakashi had a sad look on his face. But it brightened as he turned to his Genins.
"That ends the training. All of you pass. Ok. Starting tomorrow, team #7 will begin its duties."
Sasuke and Sakura followed Kakashi and left the ground. But Naruto stood there smiling.
* ALERT *

YOU HAVE LEVELLED UP!
Naruto smiled. He was now a Ninja.
One Month Later,
In front of a Dungeon,
Land of Fire…
"Ok, my sweet little Genins, today we are going to go into the Dungeon. Your First Dungeon. It is a C Rank Dungeon. Well, Rookies are advised to go into Dungeons that are Ranked below C but I am S Ranked Shinobi so it won't be a problem. I will take care of the Boss and you will have to take care of the Low levels."
The Genins doubted if Kakashi was truly S Rank as the only one that was getting better was Naruto and they were sure it was not because of Kakashi. Sasuke was also inspired by it and was also improving but not as much as Naruto had.
They entered the Dungeon and Naruto pulled out Kasaka's Venomous Fangs. They walked in and were surprised to see that some of the monsters were eaten. But there are no other Monsters.
All of a Sudden, a Large Spider dropped down and tried to attack Sakura. But Naruto appeared before the Spider and cut it.
"Get ready Sasuke. More are about to come down."
Sasuke pulled out Kunais and Shurikens to support Naruto. When the spider came down, Naruto attacked them. One tried to attack from behind him, but Sasuke threw his Kunai and killed it. Naruto landed beside Sasuke.
"Torch them all, teme."
Sasuke made the Hand Seals for Fireball as he expelled a Large Ball of fire that burned every Spider that was coming at them.
Kakashi clapped.
"Both of you are impressive. You will have to train more Sakura. Now come, I will show you how a S Rank Shinobi takes care of a Boss."
They followed behind Kakashi. Naruto decided to look at the Alerts he had gotten.

Naruto closed the stat screen as they reached a huge door. Kakashi pushed the door open. They looked in and saw the Boss of the Dungeon Giant Arachnid Buryura. Kakashi raised his head band to show his sharingan. Sasuke was surprised to see it.
"Watch Closely. The Dungeons have made my Best Technique more effective. It has converted it into something like what the Raikage's have. You are lucky you are not witnessing this from the other side. Raikiri."
Kakashi's hand was covered with Lightning and soon enough the lightning traced over his body. And then he disappeared in a blur. The next thing the Genin knew, Kakashi had stabbed Buryura. And then Kakashi jumped down, while cutting Buryura's Leg. He then proceeded to cut Buryura completely.
He then appeared before his team, deactivating his attack.
"What you witnessed is not the Original Procut. And I would use it but I felt it would be better to show how cool I am."
And he was cool. The Genins had just seen a Boss get handled like it was nothing. This was what Naruto aspired to be. Where every S Rank Ninja like that?
Some Days Later…
"What's the distance to the Target?"
Naruto peeked from behind the tree that he hid behind.
"Five Metres. I am Ready anytime."
Naruto waited for Kakashi's Reply and as soon as he heard go, he jumped out. But it turns out it was not just him that jumped out as Sasuke and Sakura followed soon they think they jumped at was a Cat, Tora. Naruto grabbed the cat and held it.
"Ribbon on the left ear. Are You sure this is the target, Tora?"
Naruto checked the Cat's Left ear and found a pink Ribbon tied on it.
"Yeah. It is Tora."
"Good. Lost Pet 'Tora' search mission complete."

Sometimes later,
Hokage's Office,
Konoha…
"Now. Team 7, your next duty is babysitting an elder's grandson, shopping in the Neighboring Village and helping with the Potato Digging. You can choose to complete any one of these missions."
Hiruzen read out all the missions that were in the reserve.
"No, thank you. I want to do a more incredible mission. Find us a better one. We are already strong."
Naruto folded his legs and arms and sat down, refusing to move. Hiruzen looked at Naruto and then at his Teammates and saw that they thought the same thing as Naruto. He looked at Kakashi and saw that Kakashi was okay with taking them on a C Rank Mission. It seemed like Naruto. But someone responded before he could.
"You idiot. You are just a rookie. Everyone starts off with simple duties and works their way up."
Hiruzen raised his hand and silenced Iruka.
"Everyday the village receives numerous requests, from Babysitting to Assassination. Each Request is written down on these lists and Divided into an A, B, C and D ranking based on difficulty. The village is also divided based on skill. Starting with me to the Jonins, Chunins and Genins. The missions are then handed out by us at the top to Ninjas based on their Abilities."
Hiruzen then pointed at the Fire Lord's Wife paying the fee of the mission.
"And if the duty is completed successfully, we receive payment from the Client. You guys just recently became genin. D Rank Missions are perfect for you."
Hiruzen turned to Naruto and saw that he had completely ignored him and was now discussing what Ramen he was about to eat with himself. Hiruzen sighed.
"Ok. If you want it that much, I will give you a C Rank Mission. It is a protection mission of a Certain Individual. Hey, will you come in here?"
Naruto smiled. It seemed he had succeeded in pursuing Hiruzen. The door opened as an Old Man came in with a bottle of sake in his hand.
"What's this? They are all a bunch of Super Brats. Especially the one with the Duck Butt on his head. Are you really a Ninja?"
Naruto turned to Sasuke and grabbed him before he lunged at the old man.
"What is the point of killing the person you are supposed to protect? Teme."
The old man smirked.
"I am the super expert Bridge Builder, Tazuna. I expect you to provide me with super protection until I get back to my Country and Complete the Bridge."
Naruto wondered what was so special about Tazuna. Maybe he was just egotistical. Naruto waited for the Alert to pop up like other quests but it did not. He wondered why.
Next Day,
Konohagakure Gate,
Konoha…

Naruto was satisfied with his stats. Only Sense was the stat that had not reached 100. But he would make sure that it would be 100 too.
"Hey. Am I really going to be safe with these Brats?"
Kakashi laughed.
"Well, I am Jonin. So you don't have to worry. Let's go."
Sometimes later…
* ALERT *
[TAZUNA PROTECTION: DEFEAT THE DEMON BROTHER] HAS BEEN CREATED.
* QUEST INFO *
DESCRIPTION: THE TWO DEMON BROTHER HAVE TRANSFORMED INTO PUDDLES AND ARE WAITING TO ATTACK TAZUNA. PROTECT HIM.
[0/1] Gozu
[0/1] Meizu
The team was walking down a road when two masked men jumped out of the puddle and tried to wrap chains around Kakashi and kill him. But Naruto used [Sprint] while pulling out a Kunai and stabbed the Chain to the ground.
"Live this to me, Sensei."
Naruto pulled out Kasaka's Venomous Fang as he used [Sprint]. Meizu dodged but a Scratch was left on Meizu's Body.
"All you did was scratch on my body."
"Just wait for it."
Meizu tried to attack but he could not move his body.
"You won't be able to move your body for 10 Minutes. And in the Meantime, you will bleed to death."
Meizu did not know what Naruto meant by bleeding to death. Until Blood started to flow out of the Wound like a Waterfall. Gozu got angry and rushed at Naruto. Naruto tossed the Fang at the incoming Gozu. Gozu could not react fast enough as the Fang pierced Gozu.
* ALERT *
YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE QUEST.
* ALERT *
YOU HAVE LEVELLED UP!
YOU HAVE LEVELLED UP!
Naruto pulled out the Fang and turned to his team.
"We had to question who they were attacking. Why did you kill both of them?"
Naruto pointed his Dagger at Tazuna.
"Him. Tazuna was their target. They probably wanted to take him back to make him an example. But for what?"
Kakashi and the other Genins turned to Tazuna with a questioning look.
Tazuna started to sweat.
"They both were chunin from Kiri. They are Ninjas known to keep fighting no matter what."
"How did you read their movement?"
Naruto turned to the Tied up Sasuke and smiled.
"On a Sunny Day like this when it has not rained in days, a water puddle should not exist."
Sasuke realised Naruto was right. He should have been aware of his surroundings.
"We have not heard that there are Shinobis after you. Our Mission was simply to protect you from Thieves or Gangs. This has now become at least a B-Rank Mission. This was supposed to be simple protection until you completed the Bridge."
Tazuna looked down, sad. Naruto saw the mask Tazuna wore of being a Drunkard slip. It looked like Tazuna really needed some help and he could not afford a B-Rank Mission.
"We are not ready for this mission. Let's quit. We should go back to the Village."
Naruto scoffed at Sakura.
"You are not ready for a C-Rank Mission, Sakura. Not us, Sasuke and I can take care of ourselves very well. And I say that I will protect this Old Man. We are Continuing the Mission. Even if you guys decide to return."
Kakashi smiled at him. Tazuna walked up to Kakashi.
"There is something that I have to tell you, Sensei. It is about this mission."
Kakashi raised his eyebrows at Tazuna.
"You are right, this job is most likely outside your Duties. It turns out that a Super Dangerous Man is after my life. You have probably at least heard his name before. The Wealthy Shipping Magnate, a man named Gatou."
Kakashi had indeed heard the name, but none of the Genins had.
"Gatou. From that Gatou Company? He is said to be one of the World's Few Extremely Wealthy People."
Tazuna nodded.
"Yes. Officially he runs a large shipping company. But, secretly he sells drugs and other illegal items using Ninjas and Gang Members to take over businesses and Countries. He is a Very Nasty Man. It was about a year ago when he set his eyes on the Wave Country. Through money and Violence, he quickly took control of the Country's shipping industry. Gato now has a Monopoly on all business Traffic in the country. The only thing he has to fear now is the Completion of the Bridge."
Naruto turned to Kakashi and waited for his reply. He hoped Kakashi would make the right choice.
"But what I don't understand is that if you know Ninjas could be after you, why did you hide that fact when you hired us?"
"It is obvious, Kakashi-sensei. He just said that his country was taken over by Gato and that means they don't have enough money for it."
Tazuna laughed.
"Well, if you quit the mission now, I will definitely be killed but don't worry about it. If I die, my Cute 10 Year Old Grandson will just cry for a few days. And my daughter will live a sad life, hating Konoha Shinobis forever. But it won't be your fault. Not at all."
All the sympathy that Naruto had felt for the man had started to disappear on hearing him emotionally blackmail them. Naruto saw his sensei sigh.
"Well, I guess we have no choice. We will protect you. At least until you get back to your country."
Naruto could tell what Tazuna felt that he had won. Well he had.
Sometimes later,
Wave Village…
"What a thick mist, I can't see ahead. We should see the bridge soon though. The Wave Country is at the Base of the Bridge. We will be there soon. It looks like we have avoided detection so far, but take the route that has vegetation just in case. It will make the enemies harder to spot you."
Tazuna nodded and gave his thanks to the Sailor. They all got off and walked. As they were walking, Naruto heard a rustle and threw a Kunai. He walked to it and saw that it was a White Rabbit.
* ALERT *
[TAZUNA PROTECTION: PROTECT HIM FROM ZABUZA] HAS BEEN CREATED.
* QUEST INFO *
DESCRIPTION: THE DEMON OF THE MIST, MOMOCHI ZABUZA HAS COME TO KILL TAZUNA. PROTECT HIM.
GOAL:
[0/1] KEEP RAZUNA AWAY FROM ZABUZA
"What are you doing?"
Sakura was about to hit Naruto but Naruto grabbed her hand as he raised his hands.
"That is a Snow Rabbit. And it is Spring. So that rabbit was used for Kawarimi."
Kakshi nodded as that was the most realistic option. He looked around, making sure he would not be surprised by an attack. He heard a blade being thrown at them.
"Everyone get down."
Naruto pushed Tazuna down as a large Sword sunk into a Tree. A man with Bandage on his face appeared with a large sword. Naruto got up and pulled Kasaka's Venomous Fang out of his inventory. But Kakashi stopped him from doing anything rash.
"Well well. If It is not the Hidden Mist's Missing Nin Zabuza Momochi. Everybody, get back. This one is on a whole other level. It will be a little tough unless I do this."
Kakashi put his hand on his forehead protector that was covering his left eye. Zabuza looked at him.
"You appear to be Sharingan no Kakashi. Now wonder the Demon Brothers were defeated. Sorry but the old man is mine."
Kakashi pulled it up to show red eyes with black commas in them.
"Surround and protect Tazuna. Do not enter the fight. That's the teamwork here. Zabuza, first fight me."
"Ah. I already got to see the famous Sharingan. I am honoured. When I Was a member of the Hidden Mist's Assassin team, I kept a Bingo book. It included information about you. The man who has copied over 1000 Jutsu, "The Copy Ninja Kakashi Hatake"."
Naruto was his sensei was this strong, then why had he chosen to be Jonin Sensei instead of becoming an ANBU and completing the mission. It seemed that he was truly strong.
"Now let's end all the talking. I have to kill that old man. Even though I have to beat you first."
Zabuza pulled out his sword and jumped before them. He started realising a high amount of chakra.
"Kirigakure Jutsu."
Zabuza made some hand seals as the area was surrounded with the Mist. Naruto remembered the hand seals thanks to his Eidetic Memory. The Mist surrounded them and Zabuza disappeared from their View.
"Zabuza Momochi. As a member of the hidden mist, he was known as an expert in silent killing. You don't even notice until you are already dead. It's not like I can use the Sharingan perfectly. You guys be careful."
The mist started to get thicker.
"8 Choices. Liver, Lungs, Spine, Clavicle Vein, Neck Vein, Brain, Kidneys and Heart. Which one should I go after?"
A Killer Intent was released. Naruto turned to see how his teammates were faring and saw Sasuke had a Kunai in his hand.
"Sasuke."
Both Naruto and Kakashi shouted at the sametime. Naruto decided to let Kakashi do the talking as he looked around and focused,
"Don't worry. I will protect you guys, even if it kills me.I don't let my Comrades die."
"We will see about that."
Zabuza appeared between the Genins and Tazuna. Naruto used [Sprint] as he came and stabbed the Zabuza, showing that it was a Water Clone.
"Naruto, behind you."
Naruto was surprised by Sakura's scream and turned around, expecting a hit from Zabuza. But Kakashi had appeared and blocked the Kunai. Naruto took this time to stab Zabuza with a Kunai, showing that it was a clone.
Kakashi pushed Naruto away as Kakashi was sliced by Zabuza. But Kakashi turned out to be Mizu Bunshin too. Naruto's eyes widened too. Kakashi had copied Zabuza's Jutsu in such a Mist.
"Don't move. It's over."
Zabuza started to laugh.
"That was impressive of you. At that time, you had already copied my Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu. You had your clone tell your student to not be scared to attract my attention. While the real you stayed in the mist and watched. Nice Plan. But I am also not that easy."
The Zabuza in front of Kakashi turned into a puddle. Zabuza appeared behind Kakashi again. Zabuza swung his sword at Kakashi. Kakashi ducked but Zabuza used his feet to kick Kakashi away. Kakashi was sent into a large puddle.
Naruto saw that Kakashi was struggling to stand up. It was like the water around him had more weight than it was supposed to have. Zabuza appeared behind him. He made hand seals and spread his palm in front of him.
"You tried to escape to the water. Big Mistake. Now I have you in an inescapable prison. Suiton : Suirō no Jutsu."
The water swirled around him and formed a Sphere around Kakashi. Zabuza made a hand seal for the Mizu Bunshin and made a Clone.
"It's tougher if you can't move, you know? Now Kakashi, we can finish things later. First I will take care of them."
A Clone of Water appeared before Tazuna.
"Wearing those Headbands and acting like Ninjas. A real ninja is someone who has survived numerous brushes with death. Only when you are good enough to be listed in my handbooks, can you start calling yourself Ninjas."
Naruto smirked.
"You think you are the only one that can make clones. Taju Kage Bunshin Jutsu."
Zabuza was surprised as Naruto created an army of clones without even making a hand seal.
"That may have worked. If the dungeons had not empowered my sword. Now the Blade of my Sword can extend as I wish."|
To prove his point, Zabuza extended the Blade of Kubirikucho and slashed all of the Clones out. But the Real Naruto was not that easy to kill. He had realised that, even though the blade extended, the Hole Remained in the same place.
"You still have not touched me."
Zabuza slashed at him. Naruto smirked as he used [Sprint] while pulling out Steel Sword from his inventory and stabbing it in the hole. Naruto then tossed the dagger at Zabuza. Zabuza jumped as the fang hit a tree. Naruto then appeared before him and slashed. Zabuza quickly pulled his hand, releasing the Jutsu.
Kakashi and Zabuza stared at each other for a while. Sasuke and Naruto rushed back to Tazuna and Sakura. They did not want to get into the fight until it was absolutely necessary. Kakashi and Zabuza jumped back and started weaving hand seals.
"Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu."
The water around both of them moulded into the shape of a dragon and hit each other. Naruto was surprised. That many seals and Kakashi had copied it in matters of Seconds. Kakashi and Zabuza lunged at each other. Kakashi used his Kunai to block as Zabuza tried hitting him.
Zabuza felt something was strange as Kakashi was doing whatever he was doing. Zabuza's movements were something Kakashi was reading.
"Reading them."
Naruto was surprised when Kakashi said that. Was he going mad?
"Freaky eye is pissing me off. Right?"
Zabuza was surprised. It was like Kakashi was predicting whatever Zabuza was about to do. Zabuza was nervous but he did not show it.
"All you are doing is copying me."
"You can't beat me you monkey bastard."
Naruto realised what was happening. Kakashi was predicting what Zabuza was trying to do. And from Zabuza's reaction, it seems he was predicting right.
"Damn you. I will make it so you can never open that mouth again."
Zabuza weaved some hand seals but stopped. He was panicking as he saw himself behind Kakashi. This was the upper hand Kakashi needed as he completed the seal that Zabuza was trying to do.
"Suiton: Daibakufu no Jutsu."
A large volume of water was directed into air before cascading down onto Zabuza, resembling a giant waterfall. It looked like Zabuza could not keep up. The force of this waterfall was so great that it hollowed out the ground. Zabuza was forced back and he hit a tree. Kakashi landed on the branch of the same tree.
"It's over. You are going to die."
But before Kakashi could do anything, two Senbon lodged into Zabuza's neck. A masked man appeared before Kakashi, standing on the branch of the tree before him.
"You were right. He is dead."
Kakashi approached Zabuza and began checking his pulse. He really was dead.
"Thank you very much. I have been searching for the opportunity to kill Zabzua for a long time."
Kakashi looked closely at the mask and saw the Kirigakure Symbol.
"That mask. You are a Hidden Mist Hunter-Nin."
"You are correct. My duty is to hunt down Missing Nins. I am a member of the Hidden Mist's Hunter Nin Team."
Kakashi analysed him. Kakashi could tell from his Voice and height that the Hunter Nin was probably not much older than Naruto. But he was still a Hunter Nin. The Hunter Nin took the Body and left. Kakashi walked back to his team. Kakashi pulled his headband down.
"Now we have to get Tazuna back home. Let's go."
"Hahaha. Super thanks, guys. Come over to my house and relax for a While."
But to their surprise, Kakashi fell face first into the Ground. Others began to panic but Naruto carried Kakashi on his back.
"Don't panic. It is probably because he used a lot of Chakra during that battle. He will be fine soon enough."

DESCRIPTION: ALL OF YOUR STATS HAVE REACHED HUNDRED. YOU ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A JOB CHANGE. YOU CAN GAIN A JOB THAT SUITS YOU AND IMPROVES YOUR ABILITY. YOU WILL GAIN BETTER ABILITY THE LONGER YOU SURVIVE. .
GOAL:
Survive
Naruto was shocked as he did not know that there was a Job Change. But he was sure that this was not the right time for the Quest.
Sometimes later,
Tazuna's House,
Wave…
"Are you alright, sensei?"
Kakashi was sleeping on a futon. His team sat there too. But Naruto was not there. Kakashi looked around and did not see him.
"Where is Naruto?"
"He went to train. He said that he had a Job to Change. By the way, who was that masked kid?"
Kakashi was surprised that Naruto had decided to train and not laze around like his teammates even though Naruto was far ahead of both of them.
"That's the mask worn by the Hidden Mist Special Hunter Nin Team. They are a type of shinobi who specialise in hunting down and capturing other ninja. They are known for their cunning, resourcefulness, and adaptability. Hunter Nin are experts in tracking, stealth, and infiltration. They can blend in seamlessly with their surroundings and are skilled in a wide variety of ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu techniques. They are also known as body erasers as their duty is to completely dispose of the body without a trace."
Sakura shuddered as she realised what he meant.
"So that Zabzua has been chopped up and Disposed? Scary."
Sametime,
Somewhere else…
"First I will cut the mouth Cloth, drain some blood and.."
The Masked man pulled out multiple Tools as he looked at Zabuza. He pulled out a Scissor and was about to cut the Cloth but Zabzua grabbed him by his wrist before he could.
"That's alright. I will do it myself. Damn you sure are rough."
Zabuza tore the bandages on his mask.
"Next time, I will kill them both."
Back with Kakashi…
"No. There is a problem. Hunter Nins are supposed to dispose of the body of the person they killed right there. If he needed proof of work, he could have just taken the head. And the weapon that he used to kill Zabuza is the one used in Medicine. So, Zabuza is mostly alive."
A Boy walked in and hugged Tazuna.
"Inari say hello to these people. They are ninjas who protect Grandpa."
Inari looked at everyone in the team.
"Mom, they are going to die. There is no way you can win against Gato."
Sakura started shouting at Inari.
"But we can try, can't we? Afterall, Konoha was not built in a Day. If not today, then tomorrow. If not tomorrow, then soon enough. I don't know Gato, but it is not him that will defeat me even if I die against Zabuza. It is Zabuza that is the one that Defeated. Gato is just someone that hides behind others."
Inari turned to the voice and saw Naruto. Inari looked at Naruto and saw that he was dirty. Inari turned around.
"Where are you going?"
"To look at Ocean from my Room."
With Naruto…
"Ok. Let's go."
Naruto looked at the Large Purple Gate in front of him. He smiled as he entered the Gate.
