Chapter 7 - Modified preliminaries and improvements.

Time skip to the preliminary exam.
After the Hokage and the examiner had given us the real reason behind the Chunin exams and why we had to have preliminaries to cut the people so that the important people didn't have to sit on their fat asses for too long and to prevent wars... We proceeded to the preliminary fights, that went mostly like they did in cannon.

The first fight was between Uchiha Sasuke vs Akadou Yoroi. It went mostly the same as cannon because Sasuke was as arrogant as he was and got caught by Yoroi who proceeded to suck out his chakra. He struggled of course and finally got free. He used the moves he copied from Lee before the exam when he got his ass handed to him, to kick Yoroi into the air and use KageBujo to move after him in his shadow. But when he was about to attack the Pedohicky started acting up and froze for a second, of course like cannon he got it under control and used the improvised Shishi Rendan to finish the fight. After the fight was over Kakashi came on took him to seal of the Pedohicky from acting up so much.

Zaku Abumi vs Aburame Shino was the next match. Zaku boasted that he would win, but Shino used MushiBunshin to fool him into thinking that he'd one the match already and planted his bugs into Zaku's arms. When Shino revealed that it was just a clone, Zaku proceeded to use his Zankuuha and blew of his arms because Shino blocked the air holes in his arms.

hr

The Tsurugi Misumi vs Kankurou fight was as uneventful as it was in cannon. Tsurugi blasted of from the start and before Kankurou could fight back he had snaked his body over his arms, legs and neck. Misumi then proceeded to give him and ultimatum, Give up or your neck gets broken.. Of course Kankurou was in his doll's place and used the doll to break Misumi's bones instead, winning him the match.

Meiryu-Uzumaki-Uchiha Sora vs Dosu Kinuta
Was announced on the screen, after Kankurou's fight. I watched as he walked down the stairs, like he knew he'd win this... Not bloody likely... I looked to my left to see Naruto giving me the nice guy pose and wishing me luck... After that I just jumped over the rail into the arena.

"Are the fighters ready?" Hayate asked us. We both nodded as we settled our looks on our opponents.

"Uchiha? Didn't know there was another one in Konoha.. They must not mention you because you're such a sad excuse of a ninja..." Dosu taunted from where he was standing, pulling his right sleeve up to show his Melody Arm gauntlet.

"Like your one to talk... People already call you a mummy... Are you sure your male? Cuz' the nickname makes you sound like something else..." I smirked as I saw him tense from the jab, we could also hear the snickers from the ladies around the arena.

"I will torture you slowly, until there is nothing but a drooling mess on the floor." Dosu sneered as he began to charge at me... Oh well... Time to end this I guess...

"Dosu, how about I make a real mummy out of you? Dried and wrapped up? Oh well... I'm doing it anyway so prepare do dry... Scorch: Extremely Screaming Murder/ Shakuton: Kojosatsu." I exclaimed as I made a miniature sun float on top of my hand, the spectators were all shocked that I could use another bloodline, especially Suna because of their Hero: Shakuton no Pakura, was known to use the bloodline expertly.

Dosu was shocked, but still kept his charge. He didn't know what the attack could do, but the name didn't promise anything good for him if it hit. But it was all for nought because when he was about to swing his arm up and release his Resonating Echo Drill/Kyomeisen on her... She moved faster then he could see, crapped his Melody Arm and pushed the miniature sun into his stomach.

There were gasps heard from some of the other Genin, as I still held on to Dosu's Melody Arm as his dried up body began to fall to the floor. I turned around to walk back up to the balcony as I sealed the Melody Arm into my HammerSpace seal.

Everyone could hear the 'HER FLAMES OF YOUTH, REALLY DID BURN BRIGHT!' From Lee and Gai, causing everyone to faceplant on the floor... Yes... Even Gaara..

hr

Tenten vs Temari fight, if you can call it that was as one sided as it was in cannon. TenTen just continued to throw weapons at Temari who just used her Fan to blast them of their mark whit Wind jutsu. After five minutes of repeated attempts from TenTen, Temari got bored and blasted her whit her Kamaitachi no Jutsu and used her fan to stop TenTen from dropping on the floor and causing her to spit out blood.

hr

Nara Shikamaru vs Kin Tsuchi, Kin used senbon that had wires attached to them and bells to cast Genjutsu on Shikamaru. But after some time, Shikamaru got out of the Genjutsu when he used his KageMane no Jutsu along the wires to catch Kin. Then he used the arena wall as an advantage an knocked Kin out by bending backwards, making her hit her head on the wall.

hr

Uzumaki Naruto vs Inuzuka Kiba, went better than it did cannon. Naruto's chakra wasn't messed up, because I took Orochipedo's seal off. Kiba decided to mock Naruto's dream of becoming a Hokage, saying that it would never happen. Then Naruto did something that shocked even me, because I forgot I lend him the scrolls to use them... When Kiba proceeded to use the Inuzuka's Gatsuuga on him, Naruto used the Uzumaki Chakra Chains to erect a barrier around himself and when Kiba and Akamaru hit it, they were sent right at the surrounding walls whit great force.

"You thought that I wouldn't know anything but my KageBunshin no Jutsu? Well thanks to Sora-chan, I know about our clan! The Uzumaki and I know how to use the secret techniques. Now your finished Kiba! Uzumaki Hiden Ninjutsu: Chakra Binding Chains!" Naruto exclaimed as he threw his hands to were he knew Kiba and Akamaru were and directed the golden chains that shot from his palms and bound them up, suppressing their chakra in the process, winning him the match.

hr

Hyuuga Hinata vs Hyuuga Neji, was as brutal as it was in cannon. They traded blows for awhile whit the Juuken and Neji insulted Hinata the whole time. Talking crap about fate and not being able to never change it... Yeah who's the one learning the Main families secret techniques and styles of fighting...

If it was fate, than you would just stand there and let Hinata use the caged bird seal to fuck up you brain. After Hinata got up a final time after Naruto encouraged her to not give up, Neji was going for the kill, he just blamed it on everyone favoring the Main family and that if it was the other way around no one would have stepped in. After Neji's last insult to Hinata, Naruto promised revenge for her.

hr

Sabaku no Gaara vs Yamanaka Ino... Ino forfeited...

hr

Rock Lee vs Akimichi Chouji, was a disappointment... Chouji rolling on the floor and right into a wall and Lee decided to finish it whit Omote Renge. It sent Chouji into unconsciousness and winning him the fight.

hr

When the preliminaries were over, we were told to draw numbers to determine the lineups for the Chunin exam finals, that would take time a month from now. Naruto questioned why we had to wait a whole month, which the answer being because the Daimyo's and other important business people were going to come and see the exam and that took time to prepare. Shikamaru however asked that because this was a tournament based event, that was there only one possible Chunin for the whole thing. The explanation was that the finals were made such so that the participants would get more chances to show off their skills if they advanced, so there could be ten Chunin or maybe even zero.

Uzumaki Naruto vs Hyuuga Neji.
Rock Lee vs Meiry-Uzumaki-Uchiha Sora.
Kankurou vs Aburame Shino.
Temari vs Shikamaru Nara.
Sabaku no Gaara vs Uchiha Sasuke.

After the lineups were ready, we were told to use the month to train on what we had learned from our opponents, so that we could give a more spectacular show for the people and show of our skills for the ninja in charge of the exam.
