Chapter Eleven: Team-mates part One

Disclaimer: I do not and will not ever own Naruto!

-Early next morning in The Hyuga Clan Compound-

After the near historic announcement by the Hokage at the news of Naruto's existence, the Hyuga Council, along with Hyuga Hiashi had been discussing the news for much of the night, and the early parts of the morning and how it affected the standing of their Clan in Konoha.

"Who would have ever thought that Tsunade-sama would actually have a child…one could quite well restore the Senju Clan in Konoha", spoke a Hyuga Elder.

"None of us did", replied another Elder.

"This could greatly affect our standing in Konoha, where if this boy actually succeeds in rebuilding his Clan, then our Clan's power and influence in the village will be greatly reduced", said yet another Elder.

"Tell us Hiashi, do you know anything of what the boy is capable of?" asked Hiashi's father who was head of the Hyuga Clan council.

"Unfortunately no, as the Hokage said that he has no knowledge of the boy capabilities, as he kept it secret and it will not be revealed until Jiraiya-sama arrives, to speak to him about it", answered Hiashi.

The Elders frowned at this as knowing what Naruto was able to do could have helped them plan out what they were to do and what to expect from the boy.

"Do we know who the boy's father is? ...Is he a foreign Shinobi, a noble from Hi no Kuni (Fire Country) or some kind of commoner?" asked one Elder.

"No, I do not know, as the Hokage claimed that he had no knowledge of who the boy's father was as Tsunade-sama refused to tell" replied Hiashi.

"And do you believe him?" asked the same Elder.

"I do not know….as it is possible that the Hokage does know who the boy's father was but refuses to tell for whatever reason and it is also possible he does not know as he said. But I believe it matters little as to who the boy father was as the Hokage spoke he was dead and I believe him in that" said Hiashi.

At this all the Elders nodded, where then another Elder then spoke up,

"Have you met or seen the boy yet?" asked the Elder.

"No, as the boy was attending the Academy when the Hokage announced the boy to us and he was not with him when he announced the boy existence to the rest of the village. My guess is that the Hokage is trying to keep the boy out of the view of large crowds and other influential groups such as ourselves for as long as possible, so that he won't be overwhelmed and used in the politics of the village", spoke Hiashi.

"Then we must find away to gain the boy on our side, as the boy is a Senju, the main founders of this village and when he older he will have enormous influence in the village and will most likely have the peoples support. His existence alone will shift a great deal of influence, that our Clan as had in the village to him, but if we can get the boy to ally with our Clan then the Hyuga Clan's influence will grow greatly", said one of the Elders.

"Hiashi isn't your Daughter Hinata in the same graduating Class as the young Senju heir is in?" asked an Elder.

"Yes, she is and according to her and to the Jonin tutor Yūhi Kurenai that I assigned to my Daughter, Hinata has become quite friendly with the young Senju heir and has already become friends with him", spoke Hiashi.

"Well it seems that for once, the girl has actually done something right and has finally proven herself useful to the Clan. If she can somehow get close to the boy we can then arrange a marriage between the two once the boy's mother arrives in the village. We can use the marriage to form an Alliance between us and the Senju Clan, where then our Clan influence and power in the village will raise to unprecedented levels", spoke Hiashi's father.

As Hiashi's father said this, Hiashi face remained unreadable and just nodded, but on the inside he was frowning, since despite common belief Hiashi cared deeply for his family especially after the loss of his brother and then his beloved wife Hitomi. After which Hiashi adopted the cold hard exterior that people knew him for, so that people would believe that he did not care about his daughters or more specifically Hinata. So that people would not try hurt her, to get back him, in reality he cared deeply for his daughter as she reminded him so much of his wife Hitomi. The other reason why he was so hard on her was because he wanted Hinata to become strong enough to defend herself. This was why he was so hard on her and had her become a Ninja and not stay in the Clan to become the heiress of the Clan.

Hence the idea of using Hinata as a political pawn and having her married off to make the Hyuga Clan stronger and more powerful in Konoha wasn't exactly what Hiashi wanted for her. But there was little he could do as despite common belief, Hiashi did not have full control of his Clan. Although as Clan head he had control over most parts of the Clan along with other things, he still did not have full control. Since when it came to things that would greatly effect the Hyuga Clan itself in general such as their Bloodline or status in Konoha then the Hyuga Elders could take control and overrule him on whatever decision he could make. Which was exactly what they did, when the Kumo's ambassador tried to kidnap Hinata and he killed him, where he then planned to offer himself up to prevent war from happening between Konoha and Kumo. But the Elders had overruled him on his decision believing that Hiashi was too valuable to die, where they then had his brother sent instead and although Hiashi's brother Hizashi did it of his own freewill. Hiashi still held a grudge against them for being the ones who suggested the idea and putting it in his brother's head. He also never forgave his father for it either as it was he who came up with the idea to begin with, where he saved one of his son's life by sacrificing the other.

"So it is agreed…" spoke Hiashi's father suddenly and halting Hiashi train of thought a moment ago, "…once we have gathered enough Knowledge of the young Senju Heir abilities and skills and once Hinata has gotten close enough to him. We will arrange with the boy's mother an arrange marriage between the two. Thereby sealing an alliance between the Hyuga Clan and the Senju Clan, upon the marriage between the two of them, we will place the Cage bird seal along with our Bloodline blocking seal on Hinata so to keep our Clan Bloodline in the Hyuga Clan. Where any children that they may have will not have our Bloodline, but even still the future generations of the Senju Clan will still be from our own Clan thereby we can use Hinata and that link to gain control and manipulate the Clan, where the Hyuga Clan will finally and truly become the strongest Clan in Konoha".

At this Hiashi frowned as he did not like hearing the idea of the Cage Bird seal being placed on his eldest daughter, not to mention he did not like the Hyuga Elders plan. As something like this could be easily seen as treason, where many people could see this as the Hyuga Clan trying to take over and interfering with another Clan, which was forbidden by all Clans to do. Not to mention there were still too many things that could go wrong, as past experiences on the battlefield had taught Hiashi that things rarely go according to plan.

"But we must hurry as the other Clans not to mention other families in Konoha will try and gain some kind of favour with the boy and others will try and get their own daughters to get close to the boy so that they can arrange a marriage between their daughters and him. Yamanaka Inoichi daughter would be the most dangerous of them all, as like with Hinata, she is in the same graduating Class as the boy is. Not to mention that the Nara and Akimichi heirs could help her as those three Clans have been close with one another ever since their fathers where their ages", spoke another Elder.

"Agreed then", spoke Hiashi's father, where he then turned to Hiashi himself, "Hiashi, I want you to tell your daughter that she is to use whatever means necessary to get as close to the boy as possible nor matter what it takes. She could very well hold the fate of the Hyuga Clan in Konoha in her hands".

"I understand father and I will tell her", replied Hiashi after which he then left the room, where he would simply approve of his daughter friendship with Naruto and encourage her to continue on with it. Which was not exactly what the Elders wanted him to do but still close enough as it followed along their plan in some parts. Besides who knows with some luck perhaps Hinata can find love with Naruto in the arrange marriage between them, like he did with the arrange marriage with her mother Hitomi, that is, if Elders plan works up to that point. But regardless of this Hiashi knew he had no choice but to follow the Elders plan, at lest until he found some way that would allow him to be rid of them without causing bloodshed, in-house fighting or turmoil in the Clan.

-At the Academy-

At about Nine thirty in the morning the graduating members of the Class arrived in their Classroom for the last time, as today they were going to meet their Jonin Sensei's and be formed into teams. The Students all took their usually seats in the room, as Naruto entered the room he saw Kiba and Akamaru, although Akamaru yelped happily upon seeing Naruto, Kiba quickly turned away in a different direction that would allow him not to look at Naruto as doing so reminded him too much of own personal humiliation.

Although Kiba knew he should be grateful to Naruto for not only stopping him for being an accomplice to treason, but for also saving his life as he had learned from the Iruka and the Hokage that if he had given Mizuki the scroll, he would have killed him. But even with this Kiba still could not help but hold a grudge against Naruto as every time he looked at Naruto. He would be reminded of how he had been duped, not to mention that he was still angry at how for the second time Naruto beat him easily, with just one hit.

Kiba also believed that Naruto was nothing more than a silver spoon Shinobi, where he was born into a powerful noble Clan, with a Kage level mother and Godfather to give him special training and was born naturally with talent thanks to his heritage. While kids like Kiba who were born from Shinobi Clans that weren't as revered or as powerful as Naruto's, had to work hard to gain any kind of real strength or to be noticed. People just naturally paid attention to Naruto just because of his heritage, while they ignore Kiba and those like him, even Sasuke fitted in a similar category as Naruto, but he at lest knew suffering and hardship with the lost of his Clan, Naruto did not.

As Kiba thought about last night he could not help but feel lucky that was still a Ninja as the Hokage had decided to let him still be a Genin, since he had been tricked and used by Mizuki.

Unfortunately his mother wasn't as forgiving as the Hokage, as Kiba could not help but cringe slightly at the memory, when he remembered his mother arriving in the Hokage's office and after the Hokage told her everything that happened that night.

The angry shouts and screams that came from his mother as she yelled at him could be heard all over Konoha that night and nearly made everyone in the office go deaf. His mother had been furious with him when she learned what happened, where she shouted at how much he had shamed her and their Clan and about how he could have been duped so easily all over a simple grudge he held against Naruto.

Once Tsume had stopped yelling the Hokage told her that Kiba would be not been punished as he had been tricked and the event would be kept hidden if Naruto agreed to, so that Kiba and the Inuzuka Clan would not be disgraced to the rest of the village. His mother seemed to lessen her anger at him after hearing this, but even still she had not let Kiba off the hook for attacking Naruto and for being such an idiot. Where she told Kiba for the next eight months he would be on Kennel duty in the Inuzuka Clan kennels, the worst job for any member in the Inuzuka Clan. As he would have to clean up each one of the Inuzuka dog kennels each week, which also included picking up the dogs poop around the kennels.

When Naruto saw Kiba looking away from him he could only sigh as he could tell that Kiba still held some kind of foolish grudge against him for whatever reason. As he looked at Kiba he also could not help but remember the talk he had with the Hokage earlier this morning, where he agreed to keep Kiba's part of the incident secret. Since although he thought Kiba was a jerk and a bit of an idiot, he didn't believe he or his Clan deserved to be disgraced to the whole village because of one stupid mistake. Sarutobi of course had been happy to hear Naruto choice as he was on the same mind as Naruto and believed that Kiba could still make a fine Ninja one day.

Deciding to ignore Kiba, Naruto headed up to his seat next to Hinata, where he greeted her in his usual fashion.

"Hey Hinata-chan, how are you today?" asked Naruto as he added the Chan part has he fully considered Hinata his friend now.

Blushing at the informal suffix, Hinata stuttered out a greeting to her friend, Hinata had become a little less nervous around Naruto, since yesterday as she had gotten to know Naruto better. It also helped that her father actually seemed pleased that she had befriended Naruto and later on even approved of her friendship with him and even encouraged her to become better friends with him.

For the next few minutes Naruto and Hinata talked, all the while not noticing the jealous glares that Hinata was getting from about half the girls from of the Class. After a little while Ino and Sakura came into the Classroom at exactly the same time and where the two of them along with a few other girls in Sasuke Fan Club started to yell at a boy called Tai who was sitting in a seat next to Sasuke.

After a minute or so of this Naruto had enough and decided to do go down to the girls and play peacemaker so to cease their insistent yelling.

"Ok that's enough you lot" said Naruto as he stood in front of the groups of girls, which caused many of the boys in the Class to wonder if Naruto was either very brave or very foolish or even a bit of both. As those few that had tired to stand up to Sasuke fan Club usually ended up visiting the Academy nurse.

"Now look, Tai here was sitting here first, hence you can't force him to move just because he sitting next to the Uchiha over there and if you want to seat near him then sit around him in the empty seats around him as there are plenty of them", said Naruto are he tired to reason with girls. Unfortunately for Naruto Fan girls could not be reasoned with especially when it was about sitting next to their "beloved Sasuke-kun".

"Move it Senju, your in the way of true love between my Sasuke-kun and me", said Sakura as she and two another girls pushed him aside next to Ino.

After which Sakura and the two girls tried to pull Tai of his seat, while Sasuke just watched them with an annoyed expression on his face and thinking, "stupid fan-girls".

When Sakura and the two girls grabbed onto the right sleeve of Tai's shirt and tried to pull Tai off his seat, Tai resisted the girls by pulling back so to stop them from pulling him off his seat, as they kept pulling on one another, eventually the sleeves of Tai's shirt ripped, which resulted everyone to fall back and crash into other people. Most of the girls fell back into the desks behind them or other girls who were behind them.

Naruto unfortunately was also caught in his tumble of bodies, where he crashed into Ino, who was next to him, when someone pushed him, this caused both he and Ino to fail and tumble down the steps that led to the different desk levels. Eventually the two hit the bottom floor of the Classroom where Naruto landed on the floor first on his back, with Ino landing on top of him.

Once Ino regained her sense's she found herself staring right into Naruto's bright blue eyes and was transfixed by them in away. For a minute or so, Ino and Naruto just stared into each others eyes, until Naruto suddenly spoke up.

"Eh, Ino-san if you don't mind could you get off me please", where when Ino looked at the position she was in with Naruto she could not help but blush. As their noses were just a hair strand away from touching on another, Ino's hands were on Naruto chest, while Naruto own hands were holding onto Ino waist and Ino's left leg was dangerous close between Naruto's legs in a very intimate manner.

Upon fully realising the situation she was in, Ino quickly jumped up off Naruto with a large "eep", as she was too embarrassed at what just happened that she could not scream or shout. Fortunately for Ino and Naruto no-one had been paying any attention to what was happening to them as they were too focused on something else.

Where when Sakura and the other girls fell backwards, Tai also fell backwards, where as he turned around and tried brace himself as he fell, he collided with Sasuke and they fell to the ground together and accidently locked lips with one another for a few seconds. Much to the shock of everyone in the classroom especially to Sasuke's Fan-girls as they could not believe what they saw and were furious at the same time as Tai had stolen Sasuke first kiss.

Quickly the two boys jumped apart from one another and began to spit out the taste of the others lips, unfortunately for Tai, Sasuke's Fan girls did not take well to the fact that he stole "their Sasuke-kuns" fist kiss from them. After which Sasuke-fan girls (minus Ino) pounced on Tai and proceeded to beat Tai into a bloody pulp for the next few minutes, where it only ended with the arrival of Iruka.

Once the class had been seated, with Tai sitting back on his seat despite what he went through and Sakura sitting right behind Sasuke and Naruto sitting back next to Hinata. Iruka started to call out the teams, their numbers and what sensei's they had.

"Next Team seven which will have Haruno Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke and Senju Naruto and your Sensei will be Hatake Kakashi", spoke Iruka but before he could call out the members of team eight, Sakura started to cheer and shout.

"HA! TRUE LOVE WINS…TAKE THAT INO PIG!" cried Sakura with joy as she got to be with "her Sasuke-kun". Strangely enough Ino remained quiet during Sakura victory cheering which surprise many as they expected her yell about it being unfair and would start to wine and complain.

As Sakura continue to cheer her other team-mates did not share her joy,

"Kami must hate me right now for some reason to put me on the same team of the class emo and his fan girl…sure I could put being with the just the Uchiha…but why did "SHE" have to be on it.", thought Naruto.

Although he had no real reason to like or dislike Sasuke, he could tell that by the personality of Sasuke of how he would always brood and look down at others think that they were worthless that he wasn't going to get on too well with him. "But at least I have that Kakashi guy as my sensei, as according to Ero-sennin he's the strongest Jonin in Konoha and was Tou-san student. Maybe I can learn some more things about Tou-san from him", thought Naruto as he thought on the positive side.

"So I'm on the same team as a worthless fan girl and the Senju, the Senju at least won't be a total waste of space like her", thought Sasuke as he made a quick glace at Sakura, before he glanced at Naruto "…and I will at least have someone who "might" challenge me and to test myself against…lets just hope that this Hatake can teach me something useful to use against Him".

Once Iruka had told Sakura to calm down and sit back down he went on to state the other teams,

Team eight was made up of Hinata, Shino and Kiba with Yūhi Kurenai as their Jonin Sensei.

When Hinata heard this, she was of course pleased to know that Kurenai was her Sensei, although was a bit disappointed that Naruto wasn't on her team where she would have at least be friends with someone on her team. As she did not know Kiba all that well and she was kind of nervous around Shino as she was kind of intimidated by him, but still she hoped that they would get along after sometime.

After calling out the members of Team Nine, Iruka called out the members Team Ten which was made up of Choji, Ino and Shikamaru with Sarutobi Asuma as their Jonin Sensei.

Naturally many people expected Ino to shout out, cry and complain about not being on the same Team as Shikimaru and Choji, but much to their surprise Ino remained quiet after the announcement.

After a few more minutes the remaining other teams were announced by Iruka, after which Iruka called the Jonin Sensei's that were waiting outside the classroom, where once they entered Iruka left the room.

Hinata soon said good-bye to Naruto as she went to join Kurenai and her new team, they were soon followed by Ino, Choji and Shikamaru and their new Sensei Asuma who was the younger son of the Sandaime Hokage.

After a little while all the new Genin's expect for Team seven had left with their new Sensei's, Naruto then went down to the ground floor and began to start working on setting up a prank for Kakash. As Jiraiya had told him all about his father's former student, who was regularly late for appointments as a way for honouring another student of his father's who died on a mission.

"Senju, what the hell are you doing?" cried Sakura.

"What does it look like? ...I'm setting up a trap" answered Naruto, while not even turning to look at Sakura.

"Why?" asked Sakura.

"Because the Sensei that we have has a reputation of always being late for Appointments, hence I making this trap to teach him a lesson about being late", replied Naruto.

"OOOOOHHHHHHH…..your going to be in so much trouble with Sensei if you do that" said Sakura, while in he inside Inner Sakura was saying "Cha! I love it….Teach that baka Sensei a Lesson".

"What do you think Sasuke-kun?" asked Sakura with a dreamy look.

"Hmph, I like care", replied Sasuke.

"Sasuke-kun is ssssooooo cccoooooolllll" though Sakura dreamily.

After a little while Naruto, was finish making his trap for Kakashi, where he then sat down opened up a book and stated to read it.

-Two hours later-

After spending two hours paying his respects to the memorial stone, Kakashi decided to go and see his new students, two of which would be interesting to meet as one was Uchiha Sasuke the last loyal Uchiha in Konoha. While the other was Senju Naruto son of Tsunade of the Sannin, naturally like everyone, Kakashi was stunned that Tsunade had a child, he was further surprised that he would be his Sensei, although considering how the Academy setup the teams he should not have been.

When the teams had been sorted out several Sensei's had stated that the teams were unbalanced as Kakashi had the top Kunoichi , along with the Uchiha and Senju heirs, both of whom were already considered by many as prodigies. Since although Naruto was classed the dead-last many still considered him a Prodigy, as he was only made the dead-last because he did not fully attend the Academy and his score was only based on the exam, which he passed with flying colours. Not top mention the news of Naruto singlehandedly defeating Mizuki had already spread to the other Shinobi ranks, further proving the claim that Naruto was a Prodigy.

But even despite the complaints the Hokage stated that if he changed them now they would have to rearrange all the teams again. But stated that once he knew what Naruto's capabilities were and if he made the team unbalance he would change the team in some form, which settle the Shinobi's that complained.

As Kakashi made his way to the classroom, Kakashi noticed a chalk eraser stuck on the door, which would fall on his head once he opened it. "AAAAAHHHH, the old chalk eraser on the door gag, that takes me back" though Kakashi with fond memories as he remember Obito played the same trick before one time. "…But still you think that these kids could think of something more originally that this…..oh well, might as well play along".

Kakashi then slid the door open and let the eraser fall on his head, which made Sasuke wonder if Kakashi was really a Jonin if he fell for that lame gag. Although there was much more to the prank that Kakashi, Sasuke or Sakura thought, as the chalk eraser was just something to distract Kakashi from the real pranks. Which was a trip wire at the door that Kakashi activated, when his foot crossed the wire and he entered the classroom.

When Kakashi hit the trip wire a massive stink bomb dropped from above the door and exploded at the door, fortunately Kakashi being a trained Shinobi was able to get away from the stink bomb before it exploded. But when Kakashi moved away from the stink bomb he tripped over another trip wire, which launched a flurry of Kunai at him. Kakashi although quickly used a Kawarimi no Jutsu (Body Replacement Technique) and replaced himself with a nearby chair, which the Kunai's hit.

But unfortunately when Kakashi replaced himself he activated yet another trap, where he reappeared and stood on a loose floorboard that was actually a trap and exploded, covering him entirely in orange paint, much to Naruto's amusement as he laughed at the now orange Kakashi.

"Gomen Sensei, but it was all Naruto's doing, neither Sasuke-kun nor I were involved it that stupid prank", said Sakura, while inside her mind Inner Sakura was cheering madly at how she loved it and it was great.

"Well now, now that I have met you all, I have only one to say…I hate you all…especially you", said Kakashi as he looked and glared slightly at Naruto, who just grinned back and saluted Kakashi.

"Ok you three, I want you all to meet me at the roof in ten minutes", said Kakashi, as he used the Shunshin no Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique) to disappear in a swirl of leaves leaving Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura alone in the classroom.

"See you guys up there" replied Naruto as he then disappeared in the same way as Kakashi, much to Sasuke'a and Sakura's surprise. After seeing this Sasuke frowned, but quickly decided to head up to the rooftop, where he left the room, with Sakura following behind him and saying to wait up for her.

When Sasuke and Sakura arrived they found Naruto sitting on a stone bench that was on the roof reading his book as he waited to them, in front of him was also a now clean Kakashi who was reading his own book an Icha Icha book.

Once Sasuke and Sakura had sat down next to Naruto, Kakashi snapped his book close and look at them.

"Ok you three, I think we should try and get to know each other better, so how about you each tell me your name, what you like, what you dislike, your dreams for the future and your hobbies".

"How about you go first Sensei so we know what we have to say", said Sakura, which caused Naruto to roll his eyes slightly as it was obvious what they had to do.

"Ok then, I'm Hatake Kakashi, Things I like and things I hate...I don't feel like telling you that. My dreams for the future ...never really thought about it. As for my hobbies...I have lots of hobbies".

This of course caused Sasuke to frown and Sakura to look disappointed as it didn't really tell them anything about him other than his name, Naruto on the other hand smirked as he expected Kakashi be secretive and cryptic as he didn't like people knowing too much about him.

After hearing Kakashi reply he decided to rain on Kakashi parade, "Well I guess I have to tell them a bit about you then. Like he said his name is Hatake Kakashi, he is the only son of Hatake Sakumo, also known as the Konoha no Shiroi Kiba(Konoha's White Fang). At a young age he was regarded as an extremely gifted prodigy where he graduated from the Academy in a single year at the top of his Class at age five. He became a Chunin at age six and a Jonin at age thirteen, where he is considered today as one of Konoha's strongest Shinobi's. He is also the last surviving student of the Youndaime Hokage and is also the only person outside of the Uchiha Clan to have and wield the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan Doujutsu bloodline…." spoke Naruto. Where when he said that Kakashi had the Sharingan, Sasuke suddenly become very interested in what Naruto had to say about Kakashi.

"…which is why he is known throughout the Shinobi world as Sharingan no Kakashi (Kakashi of the Sharingan) and Kopī Ninja no Kakashi (Copy Ninja Kakashi) and is said to have copied and master over a thousand different Jutsu's. He has several high ranking bounties on his head and is ranked as a high A ranked level Shinobi as he completed 1,141 official missions in total: 197 D-rank, 190 C-rank, 414 B-rank, 298 A-rank, 42 S-rank. His likes are reading Icha Icha books and eating salt-broiled saury and miso soup with eggplant. He dislikes are traitors, those who turn their back on their comrades and abandon them, any fried or sweet food and being photographed without his mask. His hobbies are reading the Icha Icha series and his dreams of the future are to write his own series of the books", spoke Naruto. Where once he finished both Sasuke and Sakura looked at him in surprise as he knew more about their Sensei than either of them did.

But none of them were more surprise or to be more precise…stunned to hear all this than Kakashi, as Naruto knew basically everything about him, if not more than most of the people in Konoha knew about him. The only real sign of Kakashi showing his shock was the raised eye-brow from his one revealing eye which had slightly widen in surprise.

"Well now that was unexpected, but impressive and may I ask where you learned all this from Blondie?" asked Kakashi.

Naruto just narrowed his eyes slightly at the nickname as he did not like it, but decided to ignore it and then smirked, "Well Hitotsu-san (1) (which caused Kakashi to raise his eyebrow again at the nickname), my Godfather is quite good a gathering information on people and besides you tell a lot about yourself in your fan-mail to him". Which caused Kakashi to sigh as he quickly realised that Jiraiya was Naruto's Godfather and it did make a bit of sense as it would be only naturally that Tsunade would make her former team-mate her son's Godfather. Hence Jiraiya would most likely have told Naruto all about him.

Although what Kakashi thought was not entirely untrue, there was still something he did not know, which was that Jiraiya also taught Naruto how to make contact with his spy network in case he needed to make contact to Jiraiya. When he could not contact him through normal means or if Naruto needed information on certain people or groups and Jiraiya was not around to get the information for him. But that did not that mean that Naruto had full run of Jiraiya spy-network or knew how to run it to the its full extent, Naruto only had contact with a few select parts of it, Jiraiya still had to teach him more about it and how to run it effectively.

"Ok then mister smarty pants why don't you tell us about yourself then", replied Kakashi.

"Fine then," replied Naruto, "My name is Senju Naruto my likes include Raman, my Ka-chan, Shizune onee-chan, our pet pig TonTon, Ero-sennin, playing pranks, my friends, training and reading. I dislike, bullies, traitors, the three minutes that take to cook my Ramen and Perverts", said Naruto. Which made Kakashi slightly nervous when Naruto said he didn't like perverts where he then gave Kakashi a "look" that seemed eerily familiar to him in some way. Even though Kakashi was not a pervert he did read Jiraiya's adult porno books, hence as far as Naruto was concerned it made him one.

"…My hobbies are Training, reading and Gardening and making perverts suffer, my dreams for the future are to be a Great Medic-nin like my Kaa-chan, to restore my Clan and to be the greatest Hokage! That way, people will stop always comparing me to the rest of my family and acknowledge me as myself and not someone related to great ninja's", said Naruto with confidence.

After hearing this Kakashi had to admit that Naruto certainly didn't dream or think small, considering what he wanted to do, then again being Hokage was in his blood in a way and he certainly had a good chance at being a powerful medic considering he had his mother to train him. Not to mention he could very well rebuild the Senju Clan in Konoha, which was something many people were hoping he would do one day. But still it would be some time before Naruto would even have a chance to be or do any of these things and only time will tell if he can.

"Wait who is Ero-sennin?" asked Sakura

"He's my Godfather Jiraiya?" replied Naruto

"You mean Jiraiya-sama of the Sannin?" asked Sakura in surprise where Naruto just nodded his head in acknowledgement, while Sasuke raised his eyebrow in interest.

"How can you call a Great ninja's like Jiraiya-sama something like that?" asked Sakura in surprise at Naruto's blatant disrespect of one of Konoha's greatest Shinobi's.

"I can call him whatever I want as he is "MY" Godfather and besides, he is the biggest pervert you could ever meet. As he spends alot of his time peeking on girls in the hot spring for his so called "research" for the trashy perverted books that he writes and Kakashi-sensei reads", answered Naruto. Where Kakashi nodded confirming what Naruto said was true, although he did not like Naruto calling Jiraiya books trashy since as far as Kakashi was concerned, Jiraiya's books were a work of literally art.

Sakura was of course left wordless as she still found it hard to believe that a "GREAT" Ninja like Jiraiya wrote porno books.

Deciding to get back to the matter at hand Kakashi decided to speak up, "Ok then how about you pinkie why don't you tell us about yourself next", said Kakashi, which caused Sakura to scowl, when Kakashi called her pinkie.

"My name is Haruno Sakura my likes are… (Looks at Sasuke and giggles)…my Hobbies are playing trivia games and … (Looks again at Sasuke and giggles)…my dislikes are Ino-buta (Ino Pig) along with Ami and her gang…my dreams of the future… (Looks at Sasuke yet again and starts to blush and giggle madly again)".

After hearing this Kakashi just shook his head while Naruto resisted the urge to roll his eyes again, while Sasuke just scoffed and looked away from Sakura.

"Ok then, last but not least broody over there" spoke Kakashi as he looked at Sasuke.

Sasuke only scowled slightly at Kakashi's nickname and then spoke, "My name is Uchiha Sasuke. I hate a lot of things, and I don't particularly like anything. What I have is not a dream, because I will make it a reality. I'm going to restore my Clan, and kill a certain someone"

"Yesh!...could it kill this guy to lighten up a little, instead of brooding and thinking darkly all the time", thought Naruto.

"Sigh!...I was afraid of this it seems the loss of his Clan has made him revenge driven…not that I blame him though…but still if he keeps following this path it will only lead to more sorrow…for him and everyone around him…lets just hope that I can convince him, that there are betters ways…before its too late" thought Kakashi as he knew he had a lot of work with Sasuke ahead…that is if they pasts the test.

"Sasuke-kun is so ccccccooooooooolllllllll" though Sakura as she started dreamily and the brooding Uchiha.

"Well now, now that we know each other a bit better I think its time I tell you about the test…" spoke Kakashi before Sakura suddenly spoke up in confusion.

"Test…What test? ...we already had our test Sensei".

At this Kakashi just eyed smiled, "…You didn't think that becoming a full Genin was just passing a written exam and some small test did you?" This of course caused Sakura to blush slightly as she actually did.

"Now as I was saying there will be a test tomorrow morning and I expect you all to be there at Third Training Ground and I want you all there at seven a.m. sharp and don't eat breakfast as you just throw it up during the test", spoke Kakashi, after which he saluted the three Genin and then disappeared again in a whirl of leaves again.

Once Kakashi left, Naruto left in the same manner again, saying he see them in the morning, once Naruto left Sakura turned to Sasuke, "Sasuke-kun would you like to go out for some dinner?" she asked hopefully.

"No" replied simply and the left the roof to go home and train, with Sakura following after him asking him to wait up and trying to convince him to have dinner with her.

-Nine a.m. Training Ground Three next to the Memorial Stone -

Currently waiting at Training Ground three, were two Genins, these Genins were Sakura and Sasuke and had been waiting for their Sensei and their other team-mate Naruto to show. They had been at the training ground since seven in the morning and had been waiting for them for two hours. By which time both of them were reaching the end of their patience.

Just when the two of them were about to leave the Training Ground and look for their missing Sensei and team-mate, a swirl of leaves appeared in front of them, once the leaves were cleared they saw that it was Naruto.

"Naruto-baka your late!" cried Sakura as she was about ready to lay a beat down on Naruto for making them wait, regardless of who he was and related to as she needed something to take her frustration out on and Naruto was the best option.

Cringing at the loudness of Sakura voice, Naruto just looked at Sakura as if she was stupid, "Weren't you two listening to me yesterday in the classroom as we waited for Kakashi-sensei? ...Kakashi-sensei has a reputation of always being at least Two hours late, hence when he said Seven a.m. I knew he wouldn't show till at least nine a.m.".

At this Sasuke began to scowl and curse himself for not remembering that, Sakura was equally angry at herself.

"I'm also guessing that since you came here at the time he told us, you both skipped breakfast" stated Naruto as he had ate his.

Neither Sasuke nor Sakura answered Naruto's statement as both there stomachs growled from hungry, as they had both skipped breakfast and knew they have been duped by Kakashi, frustrated at being tricked by Kakashi, Sakura needed something to release her angry on and Naruto was go to be it.

Fortunately (For Sakura) Kakashi arrived before anything could happen where he greeted them with a goofy greeting.

"Good everyone here, we can get started now an-" said Kakashi but was stopped by Sakura screaming.

"SENSEI…..YOU'RE LATE!"

"Sorry I'm late, A Black cat cross my path and I had to take the long way round" he replied, which caused Sakura to sweat drop, Sasuke to wonder again if Kakashi really was a Jonin and Naruto to smile at Kakashi antics.

Once everything had settled down though, Kakashi went on to explain the bell test, telling them that they had until noon to capture one of two bells, where they would each have a thirty-three percent chance of capturing a bell. He also explained to them that if none of them were able to capture at least one bell then they would fail and be sent back to the Academy.

Kakashi then set the clock to go off at noon, after which he told them to begin the test and hide.

Quickly Naruto and the others jumped into the different hiding spots in the nearby forestry and began to plan what they each would have to do.

As they did this Kakashi waited in the clearing outside the forestry and waited for the Genin to attack, "HHHHHmmmmmm….It seems that they hidden themselves pretty well, but lets see what they will do and if they figure out the true meaning of the test", though Kakashi.

-With Naruto-

Sitting on a large tree branch behind the main trunk of the tree Naruto watched Kakashi, as he did he began to wonder what he was going to do. Naruto knew in a one on one fight a Genin stood no chance against a fully trained Jonin, even as skilled as he was Naruto knew a Shinobi of Kakashi's calibre was far above him. Even though Kakashi did not know what Naruto was fully capable of and would most likely underestimate him, his chances of beating Kakashi were still very small.

Naruto knew that the odds of him getting a bell, would only go up if Sasuke and Sakura worked with him, but even if they got the bells there were only two, meaning that one of them would fail. That was the thing that confused Naruto the most, as his mother and Shizune had told him that all Shinobi Genin teams were made up of three Genins and one Jonin Sensei. The only exception being when a high level Shinobi takes on a single Genin as an apprentice like his mother did with Shizune.

As Naruto thought about the test more, it suddenly hit him, where he smacked himself on the forehead for being such a baka. Naruto remembered when he was younger, his mother told him the story about how she, Jiraiya and Orochimaru became a team and how the Sandaime used a bell test just like what Kakashi was using now to test them. Naruto also remembered the story Jiraiya told him when he was eleven about how he had used the very same test on Naruto's father and his team-mates.

When Naruto realised this, it all made perfect sense, since Jiraiya had used the same test on Naruto's father and his team-mates and Naruto's father no doubt in turn used the same test on Kakashi and his team-mates and he was now using the same test on them. After realising this Naruto knew the secret behind the bell test it did not matter if they got the bells it only mattered if they worked together. Even if they believed that one of them would fail, just like on a Shinobi mission where there was nearly always a high chance that one of them would died. Kakashi had even hinted the meaning of the test, as he had said that they each had a thirty-three percent chance of passing the test. Naruto then realised that if they each had a thirty-three percent chance of getting the bell by themselves, then if they worked together they would then have a ninety-nine percent chance of getting the bells.

Naruto had to admit it was a clever test with hidden meaning, but even though he knew the meaning of the test, it did not mean that he would pass now as figuring out the meaning of the test was the easy part. Getting Sasuke and Sakura to work with him to get the bells was the hard part, but still if he wanted to pass this test he needed to work with them and convince them to work with him.

After realising all this Naruto suddenly heard a girl scream coming from his left, realising that it was Sakura, Naruto quickly ran over to Sakura's position. Quickly enough he arrived to see Kakashi standing over a now unconscious Sakura who by the look of it had fainted.

"Yesh!... I didn't think I went that hard on her as I only used Magen: Narakumi no Jutsu (Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique)" spoke Kakashi as he looked down at the unconscious girl.

Upon hear this Naruto could not help but shake his head, as he knew that Genjutsu and it was a weak D rank level one, "How the hell that girl ever become Top Kunoichi in the Academy, let alone a Kunoichi is beyond me" thought Naruto as he shook his head.

Quickly deciding to save Sakura, Naruto quickly threw several Kunai at Kakashi, who quickly dodged the sneak attack. After which Naruto quickly used the Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Shadow Clone Technique) to create four Shadow Clones to engage Kakashi.

The four Clones quickly drew their Katana's and engaged Kakashi, who quickly defeated and dispelled them all by several quick hard strikes. Although once he had done that he realised that the Clones were just a distraction, as when he defeated the clones and looked over to Sakura, he saw that she was gone.

"Well now this is an interesting turn of events…perhaps this team might actually pass" thought Kakashi he saw that Naruto had used the Clones to distract him, so he could save Sakura.

-With Naruto and Sakura-

Once Naruto had gotten to a safe enough distance from Kakashi he laid Sakura on the ground and placed his front finger on Sakura forehead and pumped a small bit of Chakra into the Girl to wake her up.

After a few seconds Sakura quickly open her eyes, where after a moment or two cried out "Sasuke-kun"

"Hey, Hey easy Sakura your ok", said Naruto as he tried to calm the frantic girl down.

"Ok, OK!" cried Sakura, "How can be ok when Sasuke-kun his dead", said the Girl as she was on the verge of tears at the "Death" of her "lost love".

"SSSSSSSHHHHHHH", hissed Naruto, as he tried to get the girl to be quiet, "Sasuke isn't dead he alive, it was all just a Genjutsu that Kakashi-sensei used to trick you".

"You mean Sasuke-kun isn't dead?" asked the Sakura.

"Yes", replied Naruto earnestly.

Upon hearing this Sakura was about to cry out in joy that her "Sasuke-kun" was alive but thankfully Naruto covered her mouth to stop her from shouting and giving their position always to Kakashi. After which he then told her that she had to be quiet, where she finally nodded in understanding, where Naruto removed his hand from her mouth.

"Ok Haruno, now listen up I think I have figured out the test and I going to need your help…" spoke Naruto before he was interrupted by Sakura.

"Why the hell should I help you Senju?" asked Sakura.

"Because it's the only way that we're going to pass, as the both of us and Sasuke have to work together to beat Kakashi and get the bells from him and pass this test", replied Naruto.

"No way, my Sasuke-kun is the best he will get both bells from Kakashi-sensei and will give me the other one where we will then both pass and be together as it should be, while you go back to the Academy", said the pinked haired girl.

"Haruno you don't understand what I telling you, your letting your stupid crush over the Uchiha to blind you, the bells don't matter the real meaning of the test is ab-" spoke Naruto before he was interrupted by Sakura again.

"I understand perfectly Senju, you plan to use Sasuke-kun and me to get the bells for you and then take them off us and keep them to yourself when we've done all the hard work. So that you will pass and we will fail and go back to the Academy, because you know that Sasuke-kun is cooler and better than you in everything and want to get rid of both him and me. But I won't let you, Sasuke-kun and I are going to get the bells together and will be a team and he will finally fall in love with me", said the deluded fan-girl, after which she then left to find her "Sasuke-kun".

"ARAGH! Stupid Fan-girl…I'm beginning to see why Kaa-chan hates them so much", said Naruto to himself, after which he then decided to see if he could find the Uchiha.

After a few minutes he found Sasuke attacking Kakashi

-With Sasuke-

Sasuke quickly attacked Kakashi with several Kunai's and Shuriken's from behind from a nearby tree. Kakashi of course dodged the attack by using Kawarimi no Jutsu after which Sasuke then engaged Kakashi in a Taijutsu battle, where Sasuke showed impressive Taijutsu skill in fighting against Kakashi by pushing him back and having him on the defensive. Although when one looked closely, they could easily tell that Kakashi was only playing with Sasuke and wasn't taking him serious.

Realising this Sasuke jumped away and threw several more Kunai at Kakashi, who skilfully dodged them. Although as he did he fell for a trap that Sasuke had laid out for him where several more Kunai's and Shurikens were fired at him from a nearby tree when Sasuke cut the rope line with one of the Kunai's that he had thrown at Kakashi a moment ago and activated the trap.

As Kakashi dodged the Kunai's and Shuriken's, Sasuke quickly raced over to Kakashi and once again engaged him in a Taijutsu battle, but as Kakashi blocked all of Sasuke's hits. He quickly realised that Sasuke wasn't just attacking he was trying to get close to him so that he could grab one of the bells. Where upon realising this Kakashi saw that Sasuke was about to grab one of the bells on his sides, seeing this Kakashi quickly jumped away in time, where Sasuke was only able to touch the one of the bells.

At the near capture Kakashi sighed slightly with relief, "Well now that was close…This kid is fierce and I have to admit he does have a lot of talent as well", he thought.

After nearly getting the bell Sasuke decided to take things up a notch, where he quickly did a few hand seals and then cried out Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique), where he expelled from his mouth a massive orb of roaring flame. Both Kakashi and Naruto were greatly surprised by Sasuke knowing a C Rank Fire Ninjutsu level technique like that and being able to use that effectively, as most Genins should not have enough Chakra to do a Fire technique of that level as it took to much Chakra.

When the massive Fire hit Kakashi, Sasuke quickly ran over to him as the flames died so get the bells, unfortunately when Sasuke got to the spot he could not find Kakashi.

"Where did he go, behind me, above?" though Sasuke as he looked all around each direction for any sign of the Jonin Sensei

"Looking for me" said Kakashi as he grabbed Sasuke right leg from underground as he used Doton: Shinjū Zanshu no Jutsu (Earth Style: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique) and pulled him underground leaving just Sasuke head above ground. After which Kakashi came out from the ground and kneeled down at Sasuke, who was glaring at him in angry at being humiliated in this way as he could not move.

"Well I will admit you have talent Sasuke… but you're still not quite at my level yet and have a long way to go…" said Kakashi, where he would have continued had it not being for several smoke bombs exploded around them.

When the smoke cleared, Kakashi was holding onto Naruto and Sasuke was still stuck in the same spot he was in.

"Nice try Naruto, but not good enough, as the same trick won't work on me twice" spoke Kakashi with some humour in his voice, although that was quickly replaced with surprise as Naruto and Sasuke both smirked and the puffed out of existence.

Upon realising he had been duped again by Naruto, Kakashi could not help but smile to himself, although the only sign of him smile was the u shape eye smile that could be seen thanks to his mask and Headband covering the rest of his face.

"Sneaking Devil, he used the smoke screen not only to cover his rescue of Sasuke but his escape as well, where he used a Kawarimi no Jutsu to replace Sasuke with a Shadow Clone and had it Henge into Sasuke. So I would think he hadn't freed him and then when I caught him he used the Kawarimi no Jutsu to replace himself with another Shadow Clone. I have to admit he mastered the basic Ninjutsu's well and knows how to use them effectively, not to mention he has master the Kage Bunshin no Jutsu to a impressive level and can use it just as effectively as the other Jutsu's. The kid's definitely a Senju, that's for sure and considering that he rescued both Sasuke and Sakura he may have figured out the secret to the test as well. The only things left are, can he get the others to work with him and if so what will they do to try get the bells from me?" thought Kakashi as he walked around the clearing.

-With Naruto and Sasuke-

"Let go of me Dope!" said Sasuke as he got out of Naruto grip after Naruto had pulled him away out of the smoke screen after he got out of the ground.

"Yesh! A little gratitude would be nice teme as I just saved your sorry ass and who are you calling dope", said Naruto with annoyed frown.

"You, since that what you are", stated Sasuke.

At this Naruto could scoffed, "Well if I'm such a dope then why was it you that was stuck in the ground and I was the one that saved your arrogant ass, which I'm already beginning to regret as of now", said Naruto.

Sasuke of course glared at Naruto's remark as he didn't like being remained that he had been beaten so easily and how Naruto had saved him. "I never asked you for your help and I don't need it"

"Hah!" said Naruto in mock laughter, "saved the tough talk for your fan-girls teme you and I know that you can't beat Kakashi-sensei by yourself. I don't think I can either as he has more skill and experience than the both of use combined, but we might stand a chance if we can work together to get the bells".

At this Sasuke scoffed, "You!…me!… working together, don't make me laugh Senju, I don't need your help or anyone else, I can get those bells by myself you guys would just slow me down as relaying on others is for the weak". After which Sasuke left Naruto to go and make another attempt at getting the bells from Kakashi.

"Stubborn, stupid, baka, teme" though Naruto when Sasuke left as he knew that if Sakura and Sasuke did not work with him to try and get the bells then they would all fail. But the two of them were too overconfident and full of themselves or obsessed in Sakura's case to work with him or even try.

"Damn those baka's, why of all the teams I could have been put on I had to be stuck with these two, if it had been anyone else I might have gotten them to work with me but these two just won't listen to reason. Now there is only one chance of us passing this exam… and I had hoped not to go all out, at lest until after I was fully installed into a team, but now I have no choice as it's my only chance to pass this test" thought Naruto.

-With Kakashi-

After Naruto's rescue of Sasuke, Kakashi wandered around the clearing waiting for Naruto and possibly the others to make their next attempt, after waiting a few minutes Kakashi was starting to get board and was about to get his Icha Icha Paradise book from his pouch and read it while waiting.

But before he could even try he suddenly felt a chakra signature approach him, after a few seconds Naruto appeared in the clearing by himself.

"Well is it your turn now Naruto? I'm kind of surprise that that you're here by yourself, I thought Sakura and Sasuke would be with you after you rescued them?" spoke Kakash. As he kept an eye out for them in case Naruto was a distraction so that Sasuke and Sakura could sneak up on him.

"Unfortunately they aren't, as they didn't want to work with me", replied Naruto calmly.

"Well that's unfortunate", replied Kakashi, although he wasn't surprised as all the other teams he tested failed to realise the true meaning of the test. But still Kakashi was disappointed when he heard this and had actually hoped that this team would pass as Naruto obviously had figured out the true meaning of the test. Not to mention that both he and Sasuke showed a lot of potentially as Shinobi's, even Sakura where once she got out of her fan-girl stage, grew up and trained hard, would make a fine Kunoichi one day.

"Oh well, maybe next time" though Kakashi, before he turned his attention on Naruto again, "So now that they won't help you, Are you going to give up? Or are you going to try and get the bells from me?"

"I going for the bells", replied Naruto simply

"Oh! Even after you saw what I did to Sakura and Sasuke, do you honestly think you can do any better than them and beat me?" asked Kakashi.

"I know that the odds are against me and its unlikely that I beat you, but still that doesn't mean I shouldn't at lest try. Besides no matter what kind of obstacle I'm up against I never give up and I never go back on my word because that my nindo my Ninja way", stated Naruto with nothing but confidence.

Upon hearing this Kakashi could not help but smile behind his mask, as he liked Naruto's attitude as it reminded him a lot of his former team-mate Obito.

"Well then, if that the case then you better come at me with the intention to kill me as that the only chance you have of getting these bells", spoke Kakashi calmly, as he believed he could handle anything Naruto could throw at him.

"Fine then", said Naruto, as he quickly race through the gap between him and Kakashi engaged him in a fierce Taijutsu battle.

For the next few minutes Naruto attacked Kakashi with a series of hard and fast jabs and punches, which Kakashi was able to dodge and block effectively enough. Although was having some difficulty as he was unfamiliar with the Taijutsu style that Naruto was using as it was not your typical Taijutsu style.

As Kakashi was blocking and dodging Naruto's jabs and punch's, Naruto saw a slight opening and took it by trying to deliver a hard elbow strike to Kakashi's neck, but just before he could hit it Kakashi blocked the strike by catching Naruto's elbow in his left hand. Not to be deterred Naruto tried to deliver a knee strike to the left side of Kakashi head, but yet again Kakashi was able to block it with his left elbow.

In an impressive feat of flexibility and agility Naruto was able to push himself off Kakashi and do a mid-air spin kick and hit the right side of Kakashi's head. Unfortunately when Naruto hit "Kakashi" he turned into a wooden log, showing that Kakashi had used a Kawarimi no Jutsu avoid being hit by Naruto.

"Well, that was exciting", spoke Kakashi as he was leaning against a tree nearby, where upon seeing him Naruto quickly spun around fell into a Taijutsu stance.

"The kid is certainly something else" though Kakashi as he looked at Naruto with a calculating glaze which was hidden by an amused look. "His attacks are hard and fast and are just as fierce as Sasuke's…yet I can tell that whatever style he's using he has yet to fully master it, as I can still see flaws in them".

"Before we continue any further, perhaps you can tell me the name of the style you're using, as I'm unfamiliar with it and I have never see it before", asked Kakashi with generally curiosity. As he could tell that given time and enough training Naruto could be quite dangerous with the style once he mastered it.

"The style has no name yet, as I created it myself and have not thought of a good name for it yet", replied Naruto surprising Kakashi and shocking both Sasuke and Sakura, who had been watching the fight between Kakashi and Naruto from separate hidden positions in the forestry.

"You created that style yourself?" asked Kakashi, with unmasked surprise, where Naruto just nodded, after which Kakashi could only shake his head in amusement. At the fact, that a boy Naruto's age was creating his own fighting style and was already proving, that it could one day become an extremely powerful style one-day. "I guess the Senju Clan blood runs true after all, as only a child from that Clan could do something like this", he thought in amusement.

Deciding to try and make Naruto loose focus, Kakashi took out his Icha, Icha, Paradise book and pretended to read, as he hoped that he could get Naruto angry and lose focus.

When Naruto saw the book he began to narrow his eyes in slight anger, "What do you think you are doing?" asked an annoyed Naruto.

"What does it look like I'm readying" replied Kakashi as he turned a paged and continued to pretend to read, believing he was getting to Naruto.

Unfortunately for Kakashi, Naruto was not fooled by Kakashi trick as his mother had already trained Naruto not to lose his cool in a fight, and trained him not to fall for oblivious poly like the one Kakashi was using.

Deciding to focus his annoyance at Kakashi and the book he was reading, Naruto drew out his sword and quickly fell into a Kesa Giri sword stance that Kensai (2) taught him.

"Kakashi-sensei you should remember that if there is one thing I can't stand…IT'S PERVERTS!" said Naruto shouting out the last parts and charged at Kakashi.

When Kakashi saw Naruto draw out his Katana from his back, he raised his one visible eyebrow, which grew when Naruto charged at him with impressive speed that could easily rival Chunin speed.

Quickly Kakashi had been able to dodge several of Naruto's sword slash's, but just barely, quickly realising that he could not fend off Naruto like this, Kakashi quickly put away his book and took out a Kunai and used it to block Naruto sword strikes and slashes.

For the next few minutes Naruto and Kakashi traded blows with one another, where Kakashi had to admit that Naruto's Kenjutsu skills were just as impressive as his Taijutsu as he was very deadly with a Katana.

But as impressed as Kakashi was with Naruto, he was utterly flabbergasted with Naruto when he started to channel Chakra into his Katana, increasing the length and density along with the sharpness of the blade. He then cut through Kakashi's Kunai and nearly cut him in two, where thanks to some quick reaction he replaced himself with a log.

"The Hien no Jutsu (Flying Swallow Technique) that mean he must have a Wind Nature Affinity!" though Kakashi in complete shock of Naruto's skill level, when he reappeared a few away from Naruto. Kakashi was even more surprised that Naruto had a Nature affinity that rare, as very few had it outside of Suna and Kaze no Kuni (Wind Country) and even fewer have it in Konoha and Hi no Kuni (Fire Country). "How on earth can he do an advance Chakra Flow technique like that? It takes years for any Shinobi to do something like that!"

Taking advantage of Kakashi shock, Naruto attacked Kakashi with his now Chakra-enhance Katana.

Kakashi was able to narrowly dodge the Chakra-enhance sword slash's in time, but just barely as he got several cuts on his clothing and on his body. After a minute or so of this Naruto decided to show Kakashi what he really was capable of with his sword. He then began to flow Wind Chakra into his Katana and swung it in a horizontal slash and cried out "Surasshu-fū (Wind Slash)!" where he created a crescent shaped blade of Wind.

The blade of Wind flew at Kakashi with such frightening speed, that Kakashi just managed to avoid the deadly technique, although it did manage to cut his mask slightly as a cut appeared on his mask and the left side of his cheek started to bleed slightly. But what was most shocking to Kakashi was that the Blade of Wind continued on past him and had cleanly cut right through two trees that were behind him.

"Where on earth did he learn a technique like that?"shouted Kakashi in his mind as he knew that Jiraiya nor Tsunade could not have taught Naruto that as neither of them had a affinity to Wind, as the Jutsu was clearly a Wind Jutsu.

Sasuke and Sakura who had been watching this were equally as stunned and shocked as Kakashi if not more.

"How the hell did he do that?" cried Sakura in her mind, "How the hell should I know? Cha!" answered back Inner Sakura who was just as shocked as other self.

"What Kind of Jutsu was that?" thought Sasuke with outrage, at the fact that Naruto could do such a powerful technique, one that he had never seen before and was clearly more powerful than any Jutsu he knew, considering how fast it was and how it easily cut through those two tree.

As if reading everyone's mind, Naruto decided to speak up, "You're probably wondering right now, what was that technique that I just used?" he asked, where he got a slight nodded from Kakashi. "Well as you have no doubt guessed the Jutsu I used was a Wind Jutsu…one that I created myself", shocking Kakashi and the observing Sasuke and Sakura.

"Y-You created that Jutsu yourself" spoke Kakashi with clear shock and amazement, as the Justu was clearly an A rank level Wind Jutsu and for a newly made Genin like Naruto to create that himself was nothing short of astonishing, not to mention he had the Chakra levels to do something of that level.

"Yes the Jutsu involves me channelling a concentrated amount of Wind Chakra into the tip of my blade and firing it with pinpoint timing in the shape of a crescent moon or in a shape of a wave as I swing my sword", explained Naruto by telling him very basic of the technique.

"Incredible!" thought Kakashi as he knew the amount of control something like that would take. Since for someone to do that it would take precise Chakra control, since if they did not have precise control over their Chakra then they would put too much Chakra into the sword and overload it, as it would blow up right into the user's face. "…It seems that Naruto has inherited his mother natural precise Chakra control", though Kakashi.

Quickly Naruto swung his Katana again and fired another "Surasshu-fū" at Kakashi, who quickly replaced himself with yet another wooden log; Naruto quickly spun around with his Katana and channelled more Wind Chakra into it. Where as he spun around he used the Wind Chakra he had channelled into his Katana to raise up the dirt from the ground to make a dust cloud to give himself cover from any attacks that Kakashi might make. Which came from a nearby bush as Kakashi fired several Kunai at the dust cloud; Naruto quickly jumped out of the dust cloud and fired yet another Surasshu-fū at where the Kunai came from. The attacked cut the bush in half, but all it revealed was that Kakashi was gone.

When Naruto landed, Kakashi suddenly appeared behind Naruto in a crouch position and his hands forming a tiger seal, "Second rule in being a Shinobi Naruto…Never let your enemy get behind you" said Kakashi. Where he then cried out "Konohagakure Hiden Taijutsu Ōgi: Sennen Goroshi (Konohagakure's Most Secret and Sacred Technique: One Thousand Years of Death)" and inserted his one index and middle fingers into the Naruto's rectum.

But when Kakashi did this, "Naruto" exploded causing a massive explosion, fortunately though for Kakashi, he was able to evade the blast, although he was still a bit singed.

"Damn it…he knows Bunshin Daibakuha (Clone Great Explosion), what the hell has Jiraiya-sama and Tsunade-sama been teaching this kid", said Kakashi to himself as he jumped out of the smoke from the explosion. Unfortunately when he did, the real Naruo had been waiting for him to do so, where he then came out of the tree-line and was about to cut Kakashi in two. Kakashi although saw this and quickly spun around and came up beside Naruto and grabbed his wrist and twisted it enough, to force Naruto to drop his Katana and then threw him away into the middle of the clearing.

Naruto quickly landed on his feet where he then did a few hand seals, after which his hands were covered his Chakra. Both Sasuke and Sakura looked on in confusion, while Kakashi began to curse himself for being so stupid, as he quickly recognised the Jutsu that Naruto was using.

"Shit, I should have known that he would have some knowledge in Medical Ninjutsu, considering that Tsunade-sama is his mother", though Kakashi. As he knew how dangerous the Chakura no Mesu (Chakra Scalpel) could be when used by a highly trained medic, he only hoped that Naruto wasn't able to use them as well as certain medic-nins could.

Unfortunately for Kakashi Naruto was indeed highly gifted when it came to using Chakura no Mesu in a fight, he was even more skilled than his mother was in them when she was his age, where during their spar Naruto was often able use them quite effectively against him mother.

Quickly engaging Kakashi in close combat Naruto was able to use his naturally speed and agility to great effect by moving around quickly and attacking Kakashi around different angles. Unfortunately though the Silver haired Jonin wasn't a highly skilled and seasoned Jonin for nothing where he was able to avoid or dodged most of Naruto's attacks with his Chakura no Mesu. But still Naruto was still able to get a few hits on Kakashi, where he was able to cut some of Kakashi's muscle tissues and tendons on his legs and arms, which slowed the Jonin down a bit as he struggled a bit to get his arms and legs to move in time to dodge more of Naruto's attacks.

After a few more minutes of fighting like this, Kakashi quickly dropped a few smoke bombs, where Naruto quickly jumped away so that Kakashi couldn't sneak up on him in the smoke. Soon enough the smoke dissipated and Kakashi was gone, Naruto quickly went on alert as he knew Kakashi could sneak up on him any second. Quickly looking around left, right, in front of him, behind and above, Naruto could still see no sign of Kakashi and could not sense him anywhere nearby.

With no luck at finding Kakashi, Naruto decided to use another technique he had created, called Chakura no Parusu (Chakra Pulse). The technique worked like Acoustic location or sonar where instead of using sound to determine the distance and direction of something Naruto would use Chakra. By placing his front two fingers on the ground Naruto would send a large but concentrated burst of Chakra out from his finger like a shock wave through the ground which would spread out to about five hundred metres from where he was. There the Chakra shock wave would create a sort of Chakra echo with anything that it hit and had Chakra, thereby allowing Naruto to determine the exact location of the person in question. The Technique also allowed Naruto to determine the amount of Chakra the person had, hence allowing him to know how strong his opponent was.

The Technique of course could only be used by someone with large amount of Chakra and had to have precise control over their Chakra and have pinpoint timing. Also as well the Technique could only work in finding a person when the person in question was either on the ground or was on something that was on the ground like a tree of a building. But if the person was in the air then the Technique would be unable to locate said person.

Naruto had come up with the Technique when he read about how bats used sonar to find their way around things, from a book about animals. After which he thought about how he could use the same kind of method with Chakra instead of sound.

After deactivating his Chakura no Mesu and then used his Chakura no Parusu to find Kakashi, within a second or two of using the Technique Naruto found Kakashi's location. He found that Kakashi was hiding about ten feet away from him underground. After locating Kakashi, Naruto decided that it was time to take off the kids gloves and go all out on Kakashi if he wanted to get the bells in time as he new that time was almost up.
