Chapter - 26

Gai voiced his opinion in unusual serious tone.

"His speed is amazing. To think he is fast enough to leave an in afterimage of himself.

I would say he is faster than me with my weights off and a couple gates open" Many people in the audience that were around the jounins were very shocked at Gai's confession. Kurenai was the first one to break the silence.

"Are you sure about that Gai? Don't you think you over exaggerating just a little bit. You are the fastest jounin here?" Gai shook his head.

"No I am absolutely sure. I've heard about the afterimage technique.

You must contain an enormous amount of speed. Speed I have yet attained.

" Gai then broke it in a nice guy pose.

"His speed is so youthful tho! If I cannot get to his speed in a week I will do push ups with only my teeth!" Everyone around him face faulted at his actions.

"Well that was nice while it lasted" Anko said.

Kakashi puts his book down and pulls up his Sharingan eye to watch this fight closely very curious to who this guy is. "Well this will only get interesting from here.

" Kakashi said. Kurenai and Anko were both thinking "You just get more and more interesting"

Mikoto on the other hand was shocked at how Naruto was handling an ANBU operative. It seemed no matter what how much ANBU kunoichi tried she couldn't touch him at all.

Many discussions began on the shinobi council.

"My his speed his incredible. And to think he will be sparring with Hokage-sama next" Inoichi said.

"Well based on his performance now I believe he should be evenly matched with Hokage-sama" Shikaku said. Tsume and Mikoto were wide eyed

"You really don't think that do you Shikaku-san?" Tsume asked.

Shikaku was going to respond until Shibi interrupted "I believe Shikaku is right. Based on his speed alone he is able to counter everyone of Neko's strikes.

Neko is our best swordsman within the ANBU. What's more troubling is he has yet to display any of his skills with his sword or justu's"

Everyone can only take the information in. While the noble Hyuga was in thought with Byakugan active.

"I can't seem to follow his movements with eyes. Even when I'm straining, who is this man?"

Back To Naruto

"Knowing that my speed cannot be equaled by anyone in this village what will you do? Will you continue your fruitless attempts to slice me or will you forfeit?" Neko then speaks up for the first time during the match

"I will not lose! I will prove to you that I am worthy of the title of Konoha's sword mistress" Neko then lounges at Naruto with full strength and speed. As she approached, Naruto only stood there with his hands in his pocket with a stoic expression.

As soon as the sword was about to come down on his head, Naruto raises his left arm catching the sword with one finger, surprising the hell out of Neko and everyone in the audience. Neko then notices he is gone, but only for her to find him behind her breathing in her ear

"This is useless Neko-san. Please forfeit.

" Naruto said slightly sniffing her hair making her shiver.

"My Neko-chan, your hair smells amazing. " He began to touch it with his fingers, then eventually slide down his arm to rub her bare arms softly then put his head on top of her shoulder and began talking.

The operative "Neko" was blushing at his intimate actions especially in battle. She then felt his head on top of her shoulder and his arm encircle her waist.

She heard him whisper she couldn't help but blush even more

"Please Neko-chan. Please give up.

You are very good with a sword. You no doubt have my respect.

Lets end this. " With a sigh she could only nod and said in a whisper.

"Very well I believe we should" Naruto only smirked and said "Can I have your name by any chance Neko-chan?"

Neko only stuttered out "I-its Yugao, Yugao Uzuki. "

"Well, moon flower huh? A very beautiful name. I wish I can get to see what you look like under that mask.

I assume you must look like an angel. " Yugao only blushed again.

"Well maybe if you stick around you might be able to find out" She teasingly said.

Naruto only smiled. "Well after this match is over, why don't you say we go and get to know each other better?" Yugao could only nod.

He steps back and nods to Sarutobi giving him the signal for his win.

"The winner Naruto Namikaze!" Sarutobi said with a smirk

In The Stands

Everyone in the stands were silent for two facts. One he easily overpowered Yugao's sword with one finger and he easily overpowered her.

And the second they just head their Hokage-sama announce the boys whole name.

Knowing he is the demon boy they all knew and that he has the last name of their fourth hokage only seemed to make them clean their ears and disbelieve what they heard.

The girls in the stadium were thinking about other things. The way he brought her defenses down, oh boy how they wished it was them in her place with such an intimate position.

Mikoto and Kuranai can only glare at Yugao for getting such an action out of him. They both wished it was their shoulder his chin was on.

After a moment of pure silence many people began to shout out of outrage for their hokage said. Many shouts can be heard.

"The demon brat is back!" one civilian shouted.

"No way that piece of scum is related to the Yondaime!" Shouted a jounin. Cries that were heard from the audience was enough the Sandaime raised his killing intent silencing them.

"Naruto is in fact the our Yondaime's son. I have the birth certificate and blood sample to prove it.

And to think you all disrespected his last wish by treating his son like crap. I am very disappointed in you all" He says pulling out a document and passing it to the shinobi council who held their heads down to what their hokage said.
