(Naruto's PoV)
"Let's start the exam. There are total 10---------------"
As the invigilator was explaining the rules, I could feel the murderous glare of the red haired sand guy. For some reason, it felt like Kyuubi's, but very, very weak.
"Hmph."
'...Do you know something, Kyuubi?'
"Why don't you let me out and take care of this guy, who wants your blood?"
'No. I will die if that happens. When I grow old and am dying, I will release the seal. Hmm, maybe I should ask Shiori-chan to make a seal so that I won't die even if I let you out?'
"..."
'Hey! Why did you turn silent. I asked if you know anything?'
"A Tanuki."
A tanuki? He looks more like a panda to me. Wait a minute... tanuki... so he has one-tailed beast? Is he a jinchuriki, just like me?
So this mean the other tailed beasts are also most likely sealed, even without being Uzumaki. Uggh. So how will I convince even one to become Shiori-chan's pet? Hmm, I will look for one that isn't sealed first. And if not, I will just give one of Kyuubi's brother or sister freedom.
Maybe the cat?
'Hey, who's your favourite brother or sister?'
"Shut up! I will kill you!"
Tch, another death threat.
-----------------
"Alright. It's time for the last, the tenth question."
Hmm... I could only answer 1 on my own. I had to cheat using Shadow Clones that I have stationed outside with transformation.
"If you are not confident in answering, I advice you to give up. If you don't give up now and are not able to answer, you will never be able to give Chunin Exam again, and will be stuck at genin level forever."
Yeah. As if. Shiori-chan had to take 'permission' from Wave daimyo to start building the University, which will benefit him, free of cost. Why would any major ninja village allow leaf village to make such decisions on their genins?
This guy is lying.
"I give up! I don't have confidence that I can become Chunin this year... I want to try next time as well..."
I looked at the 16-17 year old looking guy. What was his name again? Kabul? Kutabo? Whatever. I guess he isn't really that smart, that's why he is still a genin.
Imagine being this old and still being a genin.
"Konoha's Team 39, fail."
"So, does anybody else want to give up? I am giving you last chance."
After a minute passed and nobody else gave up, he said, "You all pass."
Well! I guess this was just courage testing.
Then he started showing his head as he had endured torture for information when he was captured. Yikes. I really don't want to be tortured like that.
Before he could finish his lesson though, a kunoichi jumped through the window with a banner.
"Huh? Only this much? Ibiki, what the hell did you do!? How!?"
"Heh. Only one team gave up. This work was done by Team 7's Naruto."
Oi, you are doing this intentionally so that everyone will gang up on me, right?
Heh. Should I gang up on everyone? Well, the only team that I don't know is from Suna.
So, I will gang up on him.
Panda boy and his team started glaring at me. So, I just gave Panda boy and his team a thumbs up and smile.
"Thanks for the support!"

Author's Note:
So, those who liked how Naruto pranked the participants of Chunin Exam in the previous chapter, it is inspired by a fanfic named Part-time employee. It pretty interesting, and easily the best comedy one I have read. Credits to that Author-san.
