Chapter 14

Next Day

The Passing Candidates return back to the Ninja Academy to resume their entrance exams, Naruto walks among them with Hinata by his side and Shirou not far off. The Auburn haired Overlord from the future is keeping a distance from his future parents should the Ainzworths notice him and flee.

Luckily the pompous arsehole didn't notice Shirou as he was annoyed by Kiba's obnoxious howling with excitement and the happy barking of Akumaru. Shirou was lucky to have passed despite not having any experience in ninjutsu, although some of parts of his remembered past did help him, including the wisdom of Chaossonic who provided him some brief education.

Iruka arrives at the front door, welcoming the candidates back as they enter through, he noticed many nervous faces mixed with those showing courage and determination.

"Welcome back, I trust that everyone is well rested" said Iruka "Come with me please"

The Candidates follow the Chunnin Teacher as he lead them around the building and straight behind it, right towards the back yard surrounded by a tall grated fence.

The Back Yard of the Academy is where the next entrance exam take place, what they see now in the yard prepared for the next exam, a test of skill and accuracy of the shuriken.

Shuriken Target Exam

Already the Candidates finish off the third exam, merely target practice on straw dummies with point marks to represent critical hits and vital parts of the body. 5 takes turn on their own share of dummies and the teachers mark their scores. Nothing exciting, just throwing small projectiles to test the range and accuracy. Even Naruto had no problem when he used faulty and dull shuriken, courtesy of the silver haired bastard who still plots on sabotaging our Overlord chance in passing the Entrance Exam, futile it may be.

Not the most exciting kind of test, even the written test yesterday was considered interesting since a handful of people amuse themselves by cheating discreetly. But fortunately the last exam ahead them will change their mood and kill off the boredom.

Taijutsu Exam

"Alright everyone, time for the next and final exam" said Iruka as he now stands in the middle of a battle ring is created along with a row of spectator seats. Iruka calls and silenced them all that he can explain the next part of the Entrance Exams.

Excited the candidates are now when they figured out what kind of exam they are partaking now, and can you blame them really? These are children and they do get excited over some form of sport and a healthy amount of violence.

"You will be paired in a sparring round," said Iruka as is now stands by a roster pinned on a bulletin sign, containing matches. "Now listen up well because this is important, each of you will by paired in a round, Taijutsu is only allowed. This exam will only evaluate your fighting skills and us proctors will determine of you are battle worthy of being a ninja, losing a match does not disqualify you so do not worry if you manage to get beat, defeat alone will help you learn what you did wrong in combat.

However, any use of weapons and/or Jutsu will result in immediate disqualification, so I want a clean honest fight, hand to hand only. OK, let us begin."

"The first pair will approach the ring, rest of you please take your seat." said Mizuki as he reads the roster and calls out the first pair.

True to Iruka's word, the Taijutsu Exam's purpose is to evaluate the candidates skill on Taijutsu and determine if they pass or not.

Shikamaru and Choji

Many random choices are selected and called out, but eventually a match that is focused and important to Overlord for some reason is next, one between the Lazy Genius Shikamaru and his chubby reluctant friend Choji. They paused at first, Shikamaru mutters his as troublesome while Choji doesn't want to fight his friend. But fortunately the Lazy Nara boy reassure him.

"Look, Choji" said Shikamaru "It's alright to fight, this is just a friendly spar and we'll get this done quickly and hang out later, is that ok?"

"Sure" said Choji, hesitant for a little bit before posing in for the offence.

Shikamaru sighs while rubbing his neck, his half open eyes stares at empty space and poses half-arsed.

Iruka yells out "Hajime" and their match begins.

Choji makes the first move, first by throwing a punch at Shikamaru, but the Nara boy used Choji's hesitation against him and dodged it, half-arsed but flawless. Shikamaru doesn't bother with counter attacks as he just dodges his friend's hesitated attacks.

"Come on, Choji. Don't hesitate and fight for real" Shikamaru said in a dull but careing tone. "Your opponent will toy with your weakness and let you tire out before making their move on you."

"I don't want to hurt you" said Choji

"I know, but you can't see me as your friend here, only an obstacle" said Shikamaru as he dodged Choji's punch, pulled a reversal and pushed him from behind. Choji staggers from the push and almost left the ring, but he steadied his balance and faces Shikamaru. "Come on already, stop being troublesome and stop holding back."

Choji yelled out, he tighten his fist and threw a punch, the hesitation fades and no longer slowing him down, he managed to uppercut Shikamaru below the chin. Shikamaru stumbles back and collapses on the floor. But Shikamaru doesn't get up though and this worries Choji.

"Shikamaru, are you alright?" said Choji

"Good uppercut" said Shiakamaru giving his friend the thumbs up and decided to take a nap. "Wake me up when this is over.

And like that Shikamaru falls asleep, and what do you expect from a Nara?

Iruka sweat drops at Shikamaru, and he is not surprised that Shikamaru would do this.

"Game: Choji takes the match" said Iruka taking a look at his clipboard. "Choji can you please carry Shikamaru out of the ring?"

"Hai" said Choji as he approach Shikamaru and carries him out while the lazy boy mutters in his sleep.

"Troublesome parents making me take these exams" lowly muttered Shikamaru while he slumbers in his sleep.

Shino

"Hajime" once again Iruka shouts to start the next match.

After Choji and Shikamaru (and a few more matches afterwards) comes Shino Aburame against one of the candidates, either from a civilian family or the minor ninja clans, doesn't matter. Outside the use of his parasitic beetles swarming in his body, Shino's skill of Taijutsu is adequate and he held his own against his opponent.

Shino is smart and collective, focusing on his opponent he keeps on guard on and openings left open and remained poker faced at all times so his opponent cannot read him.

Kiba

"Hajime!"

Kiba is a wild boy in his match, especially when it comes to his fight against his opponent. he fought solo while his pup Akamaru stays outside the ring and watches his master fight in his match. Kiba howls excitedly as his punches and kick are rough and strong, even finished his match with the Inuzuka Clan's Taijutsu move: Tunnelling Fang to blow his foe away.

"Game: Match goes to Kiba"

"HOWLLL HOOO, YEAH!" exclaimed Kiba as he feels pumped, sweet victory for the Inuzuka while Akamaru rushes by and leaps onto his head. "We'll be ninjas in no time, pal."

"Arrf!" Akamaru barked with agreement.

Sakura and Ino

Sakura and Ino are next to fight, their eyes never left as they glare daggers while they walk into the ring. Iruka is aware of the reason of their fixed glare on each other and it does not surprise him, nor does it concern him.

"Hajime" Iruka said simply before leaving the ring so that the to Uchiha Fangirls resume this catfight of theirs. Some things never change.

The two girls didn't start their fight immediately, they just stand their while Ino smirks arrogantly at her pink haired rival.

"Funny, to thinks to this is where our little rivalry takes us." said Ino "But you might as well forfeit because unlike you, I come from a line of ninjas."

Sakura was about to retort from such an insult, but she suddenly suffers from a throbbing headache, her vision fades and darkens while she grip hold of her long pink hair. She quietly groans in pain while her headache worsens. Suddenly all went dark around her, everyone fades away from her vision...all but one in the Orange Jumpsuit.

She turns her attention to Naruto, confused at why he stands alone in the pitch dark while no one is here in the dark also. Suddenly something big and round appears being him. Yami's spherical vessel radiates in a dark crimson while the groves covering her glow in a blood coloured fluorescence.

"W-What's going on?" said Sakura as the giant stone ball of Darkness hovers in front of her, suddenly a dark ominous whisper from the Dark Goddess reach her ears, quietly singing a some that is her namesake.

"Sakura, Sakura~"

Suddenly her headache worsens than before, the pink haired girl crouches on her knees while holding her head tightly as if something inside her head is burning her. She wanted to scream but she could not find her voice, the darkness is overwhelming her, engulfed her where no one but Yami herself and, surprisingly to her, Naruto stands by her.

Why, why is he here in the darkness, and with this giant stone orb of darkness? A Question imprinted in her mind, she battles the immense headache and stares directly at Naruto. She never pays much attention to him, why would she? To her eyes he is nothing compared to the Sasuke, and yet she cannot see the Uchiha within the Darkness as if he is nothing to the Darkness herself, and that is true. But the more noticeable Naruto is to Sakura, the more curious she is and how differantly she looks at him. Especially when Naruto's obnoxious orange jumpsuit faces away from his person and replaced by a much darker attire that he wears as the Dreaded Darkborne.

"Sakura, Sakura~"

Quiet singing whispers in Sakura's ears again, only that first verse however. Constantly that same verse repeats over and over like an echo, slowly getting louder and her headache worsens.

Sakura, Sakura,

In fields and Villages

As far you can see..."

"Stop it!" Sakura shouts out but her pleas reach nowhere in the dark, no one can see her, not even Naruto who is present responds to her cry for help. Alone in the dark, Sakura can only do is suffer from her pounding headache while the incomplete folk-song bearing her name continues to play again and again by the voice in the dark, tormenting her constantly.

"Sakura...Sakura"

Meanwhile, what is happening to Sakura only occurred in a matter of seconds, it was all in the girl's mind, drawn into her own mind scape while her own body slumps like a marionettes hanging on its own strings, lifeless and unresponsive. Ino, though denying it, is getting concerned for the Pink Haired girl. If not for her rivalry she'd show her concern but doesn't, instead she tries to get Sakura's response is with a simply taunt.

"What's the matter, forehead. Having second thoughts?" said Ino with a faux smirk.

"you could say that"

Suddenly, Sakura vanished from everyone's sight and caught Ino by surprise with a surprisingly powerful uppercut. Ino was sent flying upwards and then kicked out of the ring, everyone was dumbstruck, even Naruto was caught by surprise at Sakura's sudden victory, he was expecting met match to be a draw against Ino while would last about 15 minutes...not 15 second.

But all is explained to our Overlord when the Dark Goddess, Yami telepathically speaks to him, telling him that she managed to get close enough to her mind and drag it into her realm, only causing Sakura's second personality to take over.

Naruto knows exactly what is going on with Sakura now, it was expected since she is the daughter of the Gamer Cherry Blade, but he didn't want to focus on with the Pink Haired girl due to his current quest involving Hinata. It's not easy however, after what she did to Ino brought to his attention, never in his life, current and Pre-gamer, has he seen Sakura possess such strength. And he got his share of punches from her himself.

"U-huh?" Sakura groaned as if she just woke up. "Damn trances, I hope Ino-pig cheated and caught me off...guard."

Sakura was silent and confused, she blinked as if something happened without her knowing, she noticed Ino slowly getting up from the floor, limping and while holding her jaw in pain.

What just happened? Thought Sakura but it doesn't matter anymore when Iruka suddenly spoke out.

"Game: this round goes to Sakura Haruno"

"HUH?" Sakura exclaimed in shock, suddenly she can hear proud shouting in her head, strange because the voice is perfectly identical to her own.

"ALRIGHT!"

Sakura was still confused, how did she win while she wasn't aware of it. This puzzles her, but what puzzled her is how come did she Naruto when her vision went dark from her unexpected trance. She looked to see Naruto sitting quietly with an unknown boy with auburn hair and Hinata. Sakura knows about Hinata's crush on Naruto and pitied her for she knows how gullible Naruto can me, but now...Sakura doesn't look at Hinata when pity any more...now she looks with envy.

This is confuses her even more, why would Sakura be jealous of Hinata when she never liked Naruto to begin with...or did she?

Damn that Hyūga Princess, stay away from Naruto-kun!

HUH? Where did that come from.

Yami help us, you are a fucking idiot. To let that bastard end our friendship, now Naruto-kun hates us for swooning for that Baka Uchiha.

Don't you dare bad-mouth Sasuke-kun like that, whoever you are.

Jeez, Kizashi did put a number on you to make you fall for an Uchiha, and to seal our true potential.

What do you mean?

You wanna know? Then shut up and watch HER fight.

"Huh?" Sakura said in confusion when suddenly the next match is announced.

Hinata

Hinata's turn to pass the last exam and she faces an unknown opponent, her skill in Jūken along with her newfound self-confidence paid well for her to achieve victory, her movements along with her dodging is elegant and graceful, for you see to everyone it looks like Hinata is dancing rather than fighting and people assume that she's not taking this fight serious, quite the opposite actually.

Hinata is one step ahead from her opponents, movements ate predictable to read and she already knows when to evade and when to strike with her Jūken. Each jab on the nerves and muscles is enough for Hinata, for her knowledge in the Jūken is impeccable, no thanks to the strict training from her so called father Hiashi.

Leaving out limp limbs, the opponent facing Hinata is on its last leg before collapsing after losing all the strength to stay up. Hinata stands still and looks at Iruka, he nods and enters the ring.

"Game: this match goes to Hinata Hyūga"

No holding back for Hinata any more, and it led her to victory. Naruto and Shirou smiles in pride within the crowd of candidates, Sakura was shocked at how amazing Hinata performed in her match and she was known to be timid, shy and hesitant, and also a Shame to the Hyūga Clan, but her match begs to differ.

How did she get so confident? Sakura thought with awe, her jealousy grows and she feels a bit ticked off. However, the voice inside her head rages on.

"Are you that daft to not sense it, she's one of us."

Us?

"She is blessed by Yami herself, she like us and Kaa-san...and I bet Naruto-kun is like us too."

Sakura is getting more confused, she doesn't understand what the voice inside her head is talking about.

Blessed? Like Kaa-san, you're still not giving me a clear answer.

"THEN FIGURE IT OUT THEN, Starting with the Hyūga bitch"

Suddenly a message screen appeared in front of Sakura, but only she can see it as everyone aren't paying attention to it. it's fade, glitching and static but there are some words that she see.

Qu-t -l-rt

Fight Hinata

Winning Conditions: -

Reward: -

Suddenly the message vanished and Sakura suffers from another headache, the voice inside her head curses loudly within the mind scape.

"DAMN IT, THE SEAL IS TRYING TO BLOCK ME AGAIN. Listen Sakura, Kizashi did this he's the reason of those headaches because there are true memories that are trying to appear but that damn seal is preventing it, complete the quest, remember it and you'll get your answer."

Suddenly the voice inside Sakura's head quietens, but there is a feeling in her stomach that this will not be the last to hear from her. What she saw still plays in her mind and she turns her attention with Hinata.

Hinata walks out of the ring and returns seated next to Naruto. A twang of jealousy still lingers in Sakura and she does not know why, perhaps the Hyūga girl will know and maybe fighting her might help.

FIGHT HINATA

That is Sakura's quest, but a quest for what?"

Shirou and Julien

Shirou and Julian were next in their fight, Shirou wearing eye colour contacts to make sure that Julian doesn't recognize him

I can't let Julian recognize me or my cover will get blown, so that means no mage craft, just tai jutsu, but that also means the same for Julian also since he can't use space dimensional mage craft also. Shirou thought

Julia felt that there was something familiar about this Shirou but only thought it was coincidence and that he was named after Shirou Tokisada Amakusa.

Iruka then said "Hajime" which the Julian kept a defensive guard

Shirou then rushed at Julian with a lower punch in the gut which Julian blocked it

Julian then punched the side of Shirou's face which Shirou blocked it then gave Julian an uppercut, the force from Shirou's punch is great and true that it sent the Ainsworth boy flying back and fall on his back. Julien is still conscious but the pain lingers on that it knocked a few teeth off and bruised his jaw.

Shirou couldn't help but feel satisfied by his uppercut and the result from it, Julien spat out his loose teeth and winches from his bruised jaw. Julien leers angrily at his opponent, Shirou remains calm but deep down he wanted to smirk when he saw the look of hatred on Julien's face.

Pain is the price for betrayal, Julien thought Shirou And revenge is but sweet joy when I finally rid of you, just like those bastards that tortured my Sakura-chan.

Shirou wasted no time as he heads off to beat the living shit out of Julien, the combined skills and training of ninjutsu and with Naruto and Chaosonic has pull through. Shirou took the opportunity to hurt Julien as much as he can before Iruka could end the match. He is swift and tough unarmed, even without this noble phantasm or Julien's.

Julien struggles but earns every punch to the face and chest given by Shirou, and every stagger he gets tossed and thrown hard onto the ground, bruising his back and shoulders. In the eyes of everyone it's an impressive match performed by Shirou against Julien, but Naruto knows that this is personal for Shirou, this is vengeance which Naruto is quite familiar with.

The fight lasts for more than 10 minutes, Julien cannot handle more torture from Shirou and Shirou knows when enough is enough.

I better end this, thought Shirou Real shame, I was having so much fun.

Shirou runs toward Julien to end his match, Julien is too hurt and can barely stand, but he refuses to give up...as if he has a choice in the matter. The Ainsworth boy throws a punch when Shirou is close, it blocked and Shirou grabs the arm and throws him out of the ring. Julien saw thrown off and lands hard on the dirt, he groans in pain as he lay on the ground. Shirou dust his hands and stands alone in the ring while he waits for Iruka to announce his victory.

"Game: this match goes to Shirou Tokisada Amakusa."

Shirou left the ring with satisfied bliss inside of him, it my not be what he was expecting but it'll do before he'll finally put Julien in his rightful place, either scattered in the wind or 6 feet under. Angelica forfeits so that she can be with Julien when he is taken to the hospital by Medic-nin, which Iruka had the privilege to call in case things get out of hand in this final entrance exam.

"Not very discreet, Shirou" Naruto stated when his future son returns to his seat.

"You'd do the same to someone who you wanted dead, Naruto" said Shirou.

"True" said Naruto as he knows a certain boy in mind. "But I wait for the right moment, and savour the suffering before ending him."

"And when is it?" said Shirou, he was told of that event as a child by his father in his past. And he was curious on seeing it himself.

"Soon" said Naruto as he watched the rest of the matches and await his name to be called out.

Naruto and Sasuke

"Will Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha come to the ring please."

"Enjoy the show" said Naruto to Shirou, then he turns to Hinata "Wish me luck"

"H-Hai" said Hinata

Naruto walks to the ring, he collects his facade as the obnoxious prankster, Sasuke quietly walks in the ring also, his face is calm and void of emotions.

"Alright, let's get this over with!" exclaimed Naruto, this causes the audience to snigger under his breath, stating how obnoxious and foolish he to fight an Uchiha. But Shirou knows what's going on, after all Sasuke isn't the only enemy Naruto has, the all of Konoha. And fooling everyone is the best strategy for a ninja.

Sasuke scoffed and roll his eyes at Naruto, seeing that the blond isn't taking this serious.

"This isn't a game, dobe" said Sasuke, oh that word brought nostalgia to Naruto from his pre-gamer life. "And even if it was, you already lost."

"Oh yeah?" roared Naruto as he rudely points at Sasuke "We'll see about that, start the match already, I wanna kick his ass and everyone else who's daring."

The audience stars clamouring with rants at Naruto and support for Sasuke, Iruka raised his brow at the candidates and quietly chuckles at his master's foreplay.

"alright, calm down everyone" said Iruka, getting the audience to quiet down. "Sasuke, Naruto are you ready."

"Hn" Sasuke exclaimed.

"Dattebayo!" Naruto exclaimed.

"Okay, Hajime"

Naruto and Sasuke pose for battle, their eyes focused and their guard up. They circle the ring a few times before Naruto charges in for the first attack. Naruto throws the first punch but missed as Sasuke dodges it. The Uchiha boy scoffs at this, even without his Sharingan he can see how easy he can dodge and counter Naruto's attacks. After dodging a dozen punched and back away from a high kick attempt, Sasuke has his go with the offence.

Naruto inwardly smirks at Sasuke as the sloppy combat was intentional, he blocks some punches from Sasuke and allows him to hit his body. The impact is weak but nothing like deception to make it look real. One punch in the stomach, Naruto crouches , then a left hook in the cheek and Naruto turns his head. Sasuke then continues while Naruto is "staggered", believing that he has got the other hand, then Naruto decides to give Sasuke his money's worth and hurt Sasuke. A knee in the stomach, then an uppercut in the chin, Sasuke collapses on the floor but recovers while ignoring the pain. Sasuke then continues fighting Naruto, both sharing punches and kicks along with dodges and kicks.

Both in the eyes of everyone appears to be struggling, and the most that is concerned is Mizuki. He never expect Naruto to put up a fight as he just normally run away from one. Naruto yells out a battle-cry and tackles Sasuke on the ground, there sits on him and gives him about a few punches in the cheeks and temples. One punch in the temple is so hard that it causes one of Sasuke's eyes to go hazy. The Uchiha exclaims at this and kicks Naruto off, but not without punching him in the face also.

Naruto rolls back on his feet while Sasuke staggers to get back on his, Sasuke's eyes then turn red as his Sharingan awakes he glares angrily at Naruto.

"You will pay for this!"

Naruto teases Sasuke by telling off with a wagging finger.

"Ah, ah, no jutsus in this fight" said Naruto with a smirk.

Sasuke scoffs at Naruto as he turns off his Sharingan.

"As if I needed to use it on a dobe like you" said Sasuke as his red sharingan eyes return to pitch black. "You're fighting style is brutal and sloppy, although I need to be careful for any surprises, I can still beat you."

Naruto pull a false snarl at Sasuke, but in truth he smiles at Sasuke now underestimating him.

"I'll show you, I'll beat you, pass the exam and then my goal being Hokage will start!"

This causes everyone to laugh at Naruto, the idea of Naruto being Hokage is laughable, even Shirou laughs at this but his reasons differ to everyone. Iruka remains calm and serious, though Naruto's joke is funny.

Sasuke scoffs at Naruto and poses for battle.

"Being Hokage means being the best within Konoha, dobe" said Sasuke as he then charges at Naruto swiftly swipes him off his feet with a low kick. Then Sasuke grab Naruto's ankles and swings him out of the ring, Naruto adds his facade by exclaiming before collapsing out of the ring. "And you're not the best."

Naruto is on all fours, his face hung in shame...that is what everyone things, hidden in his own shade he smirks triumphantly and shirt his now active Mangeykyo Sharingan at Sasuke. Sasuke felt a cold feeling for a breif second, a tiny trace of killer intent...but he brushed it off as a mere chill of the air and stands waiting for Iruka.

"Game: this match goes to Sasuke Uchiha"

Naruto gets back on his feet, he dusts off the dirt from his orange jacket and walks away with his head own. The candidates taunt and jeer at Naruto for his defeat, but Naruto cares nothing about Konoha's opinion, it means nothing to him.

Naruto didn't bother staying in the Academy yard to watch the rest of the matches, his role is done and he needs a relaxing bath in the Dark Tower's Main Quarters. Has he leaves, the candidates starts taunting him, insulting him like the bullies they are. Sasuke Fan-girls starts bragging how strong and amazing Sasuke is.

"Ha, that baka was a fool to challenge Sasuke-kun"

"Hai, what did he expect? That clan-less dobe is lacking the brains to have common sense."

"And did you hear what he said, he thinks he'll be Hokage one day, HA HA HA"

Hinata frowns at Sasuke' bitches bad mouth Naruto, though it would ne nothing to the Overlord but to hear it infuriates the Hyuuga girl. Surprisingly Sakura did not join in with the conversation, for she is holding her head, looking confused and secretly staring at Hinata, which caught Hinata's attention and feels cautious about.

"You alright?"

A hand rests on Hinata's shoulder and she turns to see Shirou, Naruto's mysterious ally.

"Hai, though I hope he's alright?" said Hinata

"He's fine" said Shirou

"What makes you think that?" said Hinata

"I fought many battles in my lifetime and I know Naruto held back for a reason" said Shirou

"Naruto-kun...held back?" said Hinata

"Scratch back, he wasn't even trying" said Shirou "I know a false fight when I see one, he's displaying what these blind bakas are partaking these exams for...deception."

Hinata was in awe at this, then she realised something. It's part of his quest.

"He wanted to lose this exam...because he's doing well with the others" said Hinata

Shirou nods at this.

Later

After the remaining matches, the candidates are now at the main hall where Iruka can speak to them. Hinata and Shirou sits close so they can hear Iruka better while the others ramble on and are unfocused.

"alright everyone please pay attention" said Iruka, sadly not everyone hears him. This frustrates him so, he preforms his signature "Demon Heads Jutsu" to comically expand his head with an angry expression. "QUIET!"

Everyone shuts up and pays attention, so not to occur the wrath of Iruka again, Hinata found this funny but dare not laugh.

"Thank you" said Iruka "Now then, I wanted to thank you for partaking the entrance exams and assure you that your results will come in a few days."

Hinata raise her hand as she has a question for Iruka, Iruka happily obliges to hear her question.

"When will we know?" said Hinata

"Good question, your test results will be posted to you at your homes, but there will be a scoreboard roster posted outside the Academy entrance if anyone is curious how well you performed. Any more questions?"

"When will first term start, if we pass?" said Shirou

"The day after your results are given" said Iruka "I wanted to start as soon as possible when it comes to teaching. So don't worry about waiting for a while if you're eager to learn."

Hinata and Shirou nods at this, though they are concerned Naruto isn't here to learn from this, but they're assured that Iruka will inform him.

"If that is all, then you're all free to go" said Iruka "We'll be hearing from any of you the next day."

It didn't take long for the candidates to leave their seats and head home, Hinata and Shirou took their time to to leave the classroom and walk out together.

"I hope you get in, Hinata-san" said Shirou

"Me too, last thing I wanted is Hiashi's cold stares of disappointment" said Hinata

"I thought you didn't care what he thinks?" said Shirou

"I don't, but I still hate those cold eyes looking down on me" said Hinata "Wish I had enough courage to face him and gouge those eyes out."

"I assure you, you will come out of your cocoon and rise up stronger than ever" said Shirou

"Interesting choice of words, Shirou" said Hinata raising her brow at Shirou

Shirou mentally cursed himself for leaking out a certain reference of Hinata's future.

"Well, we are still in our pupal state and I thought a metaphor of metamorphosis is appropriate" said Shirou

"Oh, still I like the idea" said Hinata as she pulls out her umbra witch mask. "A good idea indeed"

Shirou and Hinata exits the academy, walks together for a while before they reached a fork in the road.

"This is where we split ways then." said Shirou "Hope we meet again"

"Me too" said Hinata as she bows to Shirou "And give Naruto-kun my good luck to him."

"Will do" said Shirou as he part ways from Hinata. Don't worry, Kaa-san. He has all the luck he'll need.

Meanwhile

Mizuki sneaks into the academy after everyone is gone, he reaches the office rooms and goes through the file cabinets containing the candidates' test results. He takes out 2 belonging to Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki.

He reads Sasuke's first out of curiosity, and what he saw pleases him.

Sasuke Uchiha

Written: 5/5

Stealth/Infiltration: 4/5

Shuriken Accuracy: 5/5

Taijutsu: 4/5

Overall Score: 18/20

Result: PASS

Heh, as expected for an Uchiha. Fugaku-sama will be pleased. No need to alter it then. thought Mizuki as he returns the paper back in the cabinet before he turns to Naruto's test results. He looks at it and couldn't help but laugh at this.

Naruto Uzumaki

Written: 3/5

Stealth/Infiltration: 3/5

Shuriken Accuracy: 2/5

Taijutsu: 2/5

Overall Score: 10/20

Result: PASS

Pathetic, he barely passed by one mark, thought Mizuki This is too easy, I'll just lower it by one mark and he'll fail…

Suddenly Mizuki was then grappled from behind and covered his mouth so that he would not cry out for help. Mizuki struggles from the hold and slowly loses consciousness suddenly the room lights turn on as when Iruka enters. Revealing a Remnant of Ombré holding an unconscious Mizuki.

"Good job" said Iruka as he picks up the discarded test results and puts it away. He then turns to Mizuki which the Remnant is preparing to store in a sealing scroll. "Foolish Mizuki, you were walking into a trap and you didn't even know it. And you call yourself a ninja"

Suddenly another Remnant arrives through the office window and kneels to Iruka.

"Everything is ready, soon all of Konoha will know Mizuki has turned traitor." said the second remnant.

"Good, last thing we want is the Hokage or the Censored Justice sniffing at us" said Iruka "Soon our plans will come to fruition with our new master."

"All hail the Overlord" said the 2 remnants.

"All hail the Overlord" said Iruka
