Cross-over from various games, manga, and anime
Any familiar character you see here belong to their respected owner
Morning in Konoha is started with everyone working hard, the streets are filled with people who has energies to do their activities for the day, such as particular student who dresses in the same way as the teacher that always screams 'YOUTH', or maybe a local pervert who kept peeking and scribbling some notes on women and never gives up which eventually led this certain pervert get beaten up into a pulp by a horde of angry women.
Today everyone in Konoha has all the energy they can use to start on their activities. Well…almost everyone.
"Ugh where is Kakashi-sensei, he said to come at early in the morning, why isn't he here yet" complained a pink haired girl as she looked at her teammate for an answer.
"Considering how our sensei came late yesterday Sakura, I think he has a hobby to make everyone else waiting for him, he does have an air that practically says irresponsible, be patient will ya, I mean didn't ya eat breakfast this morning " said the mask wearing boy who is currently lying on the ground looking really bored. That statement only met with a frown from a blonde haired and a nod from the pink haired teammate.
"Didn't you hear what Sensei said? He told us not to have any" Sakura replied with a really, really diligent answer.
"He 'suggested' us not to have any, and you listened to a guy that was late in his first meeting with his students, yeah you shouldn't" Izuma retorted which made Sakura blushed in embarrassment. Sakura didn't see it but Naruto also looked away in embarrassment, which Izuma also caught, and made him sighed at his teammates.
"Do any of you know anything about him?" asked Sakura which Naruto was ready to answer.
"Kakashi-sensei, he has a tendency to be late make up some lame excuses to cover his reasons, he's a fan of Icha Icha paradise and he is not ashamed of it and not even trying to hide it as he always walk around with that little orange book, a porn book which is the author is none other Jiraya of the Sanin, if I can estimate right I say we have about two hours before he arrives"
"Uh, how do you know all that Naruto?" asked the baffled Sakura as she thought of how her new sensei walking around reading a porn book and not even trying to hide it. The idea of her teacher acting like that is ridiculous, but may also be true. She shook her head in denial
'Kakashi-sensei can't be that despicable, I mean he's a Jounin, a High ranked shinobi, respected and powerful, maybe he would be late for some things but he can't really be that low' thought Sakura as she tried to clear the image of her sensei.
Izuma caught on what Sakura thinking just by looking at her face that says denial, 'Poor Sakura, if only she knew that almost all of the Jounin of Konoha is, in fact, a pervert' he thought as he laughed at the expression Sakura would make if she ever did find out.
"He sometimes comes to my house to see my sisters training, it's really easy to see the man as a pervert at first glance, I mean I he always giggled like one when he reads those books, and he even fell for my Oroike-" Naruto was cut off as Izuma clapped his hand on Naruto's mouth as he shut him off.
"Naruto, remember the conversation we had about some 'Subjects' that we should never mention or show someone unless it's a dire situation or that a lady is cool about 'it', did you not remember what article 90 of the bro-code states, 'All subjects, moves, or techniques that is between bros, are "bro to bro confidentially"' that being said we both created only for you to use, so unless you have my permission to use or reveal it, you cannot mention it or use it" said Izuma in a ver comically stern glare at Naruto's backing face.
Sakura on this part only got more questions that answered, she knows that Naruto and Izuma are both best friends from the start, she's seen them in class always hanging out and chatting with each other, they both are best friends and none can broke them, not even his sisters did, the Top grade kid hanging out with the dead last kid. How they met is still a mystery to her.
"Oh yeah, I really, really want to know how you two met each other, cause I know Naruto is the son of the Yondaime so I want to know how you two are friend with each other?" asked the most curious Sakura as she inquired of how we met. Though the original version is very simple, Izuma, being a really bored Genin he decided to spice up the story of how they met. The story of how I met your current teammate.
"Oh, you know, some says it's luck, some says it's a planned meeting which is creepy, but I say it was destiny, as the Big bro in the sky itself decided that we both are to meet" Izuma started as he began to tell the faked and fantasized story of how they met.
(Fake Flash Back)
Izuma walked through a park in Konohagakure as he looked around for any fine target that he could prey on, but as fate would intervene, he spot what could be a very depressed child, wearing a rag clothing and looked like he needed help.
Being the graceful and handsome child he helped the boy on his feet, and sooner than they expected they became friends, as they both walked the park like two bros that could challenge anything, or one of them at least.
They were the best of the bros, they were both hunter in a forest that is known as Konoha, stalking for poor defenseless bipedal prey that has no idea of their own safety being compromised. These bipedal creatures are what men would call them today as, 'Bimbos', and man were we good at hunting them.
In a month the used to be sad looking, rag wearing, and ramen eating Naruto had turned into something more, something that Izuma would call AWESOME!
And what managed to help Naruto in his path toward awesomeness?
"Well, the story of the hunt start when we were both looked for our preys in the park, so many preys we could choose, but there was two preys that caught our attention most"
"One blonde haired, ferocious looking 'Bimbo' and one pink haired, shy looking 'Bimbo', the pink haired one seemed to be surrounded by some 'Losers' and the Pink haired one got overwhelmed, but the Blonde one came into the rescue of the pink one, together they both managed to fend off all the 'Losers' and survived the first wave of attack" while that was happening, Izuma and Naruto observed them using a binoculars.
"hm, hm, hm, fresh hunt in the morning don't you think so Naru-bro?" said Izuma as he wore a mask and a child size black suit, his sun glasses shine as the sun reflects on them.
"I agree Izu-bro, these two are the best preys we've seen so far, I think if I can score this one it will put a very great trophy on my wall of hunt" said Naruto as he was wearing the exact same suit Izuma is wearing.
"There are two of them, which one do you prefer?"
"I think I might be going for the blonde one, Blonde ones has always provides us with challenge trough out our hunt together" said Naruto suggestively.
"Hmm I can agree to that statement, then in that case let's both hunt the blonde one, and leave the pink haired one to fend her in the wild, this hunt is what will call the most Legend! Wait for it…Dar-"
(Fake Flash Back Roughly Ended)
Lying in the ground is a poor sod that had a really big fist printed on the face as his face was punched with a nasty haymaker by none other a very-very angry Sakura Haruno. Her face red in blush and anger shows nothing but one thing. Wrath. As the poor sod lied on the floor, the enraged pinked haired kept stomping the poor sod with all her might nonstop. The ground already cracked due to the force she put to the stomps.
Sakura hearing that story that Izuma made connected the dots very easily, and knew that he was also involving the time when Sakura and Ino first met, only his version only telling that Ino was a lot more better than Sakura, which anger her so much!
[-500 HP]
[-500 HP]
[-500 HP]
[-500 HP]
[-500 HP]
[-500 HP]
And it stopped, as Naruto finally able to calm her down, and told her that he only told that story to rile her up.
Izuma, who is trough out the beating, realized that the damage that Sakura had done to him was far more destructive that he had expected. He didn't mind the beating seeing the damage he received was lessened using his [Physical resistance] skill, though it still hurt a bit.
He had lost [-3000 Hp] in total due to the destructive damage of a very angry Sakura. 'This I need to note' he thought to himself as he glanced at the arguing of Sakura and Naruto. He could hear Naruto telling Sakura how they really met. Needless to say that calmed Sakura, only a bit though.
They both looked at the down form of their teammate and thought that they should get him back up, but it appear that he already got ahead of the two. Izuma groaned and lifted his head.
"Huh? What happened? Did I pass out?" Izuma asked as he tried to get up from his grounded form. Sakura still looked angry a bit, and Naruto just shrugged as he about to explain to his friend how he got beaten up in to pulp.
"Well, you pretty much got Sakura-chan really angry, and she beaten you into a pulp for it" said Naruto with his very brief explanation. Izuma looked at himself and contemplated.
"Huh…Are you sure she's not just gaining weight?" and with that everything went black for Izuma as he passed out from another punch from and angry faced Sakura.
(Twenty minutes later)
Izuma opened his eyes and saw that he really did got blacked out from the punch, 'If i didn't know better I say that was a chakra laced punch she threw at me' he thought as he looked at the talking form of Naruto and Sakura, he made them aware of his waking up. He groaned again which caught his teammate's attention.
"Huh? What happened? Did I pass out?" Izuma asked at his two teammate, which got the reaction from Sakura as she prepared to throw another punch at her teammate.
"Waaah! Okay I'm sorry, geez woman" Izuma said to Sakura as he put his hand up in a surrendering pose. Sakura looked visibly calm as she huffed away from my direction.
"So…how long did I passed out?" Izuma asked his blonde friend.
"About twenty minutes, it wasn't that long" Naruto informed.
"And did I miss out anything in that twenty minute?" Izuma asked
"Well nothing, only that Sakura brought up a suggestion to burry you alive in the dirt, of course I denote that notion immediately" Izuma raised one eye brow looked at Sakura with a questioning gaze, Sakura just shrugged on her part.
"Well I guess everything is fine and dandy then, isn't that right Sakura?" Izuma asked here with the sweetest tone he could muster to quell out any anger left inside her. Well it worked…a bit.
"Well now that we're all good, it's time that I reveal to y'all why I riled up Sakura" Izuma announced to both of his teammates which got them confused.
"It wasn't only for fun and jokes, there was another reason why I did it (Lies)" he said to both of them.
"So you weren't telling that story just to make fun of me?" asked Sakura
"Of course not! I wouldn't want to make fun of pink haired cute girl like you (Lies), I was riling you up to see If my theory is correct" Izuma said 'I think I might just defused the bomb' he thought, he looked at both of his teammate and saw that Sakura is visibly blushing a bit, and Naruto caught on to my lie but decided to keep quiet about it.
"Now, Sakura from the damage I received from your beating in that anger state, I can evaluate that your strength gained an exponential growth, fifty times stronger that it supposed to be, I think we can use that in surviving the test" Izuma said
Sakura on this part wasn't sure of the idea "Are you sure of it Izuma-kun? I mean when I was angry at you I didn't really know what I was doing, I just act, only thinking to beating you for making fun of me" said the anxious teammate.
Izuma just dismissed that with a "don't worry, and do your best" response which he always use on Naruto every time he complained about not knowing how to do a technique. Izuma looked around the forest 'Kakashi will be coming soon, best if I try to lay out traps now' he thought as he used [Shadow Clone], and created 10 clones.
"You all know what to do, make sure it's aimed at the middle of the training ground" Izuma said as they all nodded and disappeared using the [Teleportation Technique]. His action caught the attention of his two teammate.
"Naruto, create 20 clones, make two of them Henge as me and Sakura, while the rest of them hide themselves to attack, when I give the 'Go' they all must attack Kakashi-sensei, you got it?" Izuma asked
"Yeah sure, but what's this for? Preparation for the survival test?" asked Naruto.
'Oh Naruto, I know we trained until you reached a Mid-Chunin level, but I wished I trained your mind into a Mid-Chunin level, it's so sad that I can't raise his intelligence any higher' he thought as he remembered getting the idea of getting Naruto's intelligence higher, but was stopped by the [Prophecy Effect], apparently a status effect that prevented him to be influenced by him, Izuma already made some changes to Naruto, and the changes stopped when that effect suddenly appeared.
'I guess some deity just liked their toy to stay the way they are' he thought to himself. He looked as Naruto had done his part.
"Sakura, hide yourself and make sure that you do not give away your location, I will send a clone with you and when I give a 'Go' make sure you hang tight to that clone, and hit Kakashi-sensei with tha t might of yours" Izuma said.
"Uhm okay, but how are you sure our Survival test will consist of us fighting Kakashi-sensei?" Asked Sakura.
"I remembered a story from Minato-sama himself, he used to be a Jounin-sensei, one of his student is Kakashi-sensei, I asked Minato-sama what kind of test he gave to Kakashi-sensei, he told me it was a survival test, 2 bells, a limited time, and genins working in separation, those were the test he gave to his student (Lies). So if I'm correct Kakashi-sensei will somehow make us separately instead as a team and the objective are 2 bells that our Jounin-sensei, which is Kakashi-sensei, will hold. The time limit will probably only make things even more harder for us if we work separately, I mean seriously, genins fighting a fulltime jounin? That's a little bit farfetched don't you think. And besides working together will make the probability of Success in whatever the test is a lot bigger, am I right?" Izuma explained to his teammate which they nodded and agreed whole heartedly. Seeing the approval in their eyes Izuma went to explaining the plan for the test.
(Time Skip)
"Yo! How's my cute little genin been doing?" asked by the none other than Konoha's very own one eyed perverted scarecrow, Kakashi Hatake as he appeared in a Shushin, and saw the state of his students.
"YOU'RE LATE!" shouted both Naruto and Sakura with an angry visage at their very own Sensei. Kakashi on his part only chuckled and scratched the back of his head.
"I'm sorry, a black cat happened to cross the street I was taking, not feeling like having a bad luck, I decided to take another route to get here" He said with a casual tone which met with disbelief face of his genins.
"LIAR!" they both shouted again, which Kakashi only chuckled upon, but he realized that he only seeing two of his genin.
"Uhm…Where's Izuma?" Kakashi asked his two genin, though the answer came in a more different manner.
"Well look who finally decided to show up" said a very deep and grandfatherly voice which confused Kakashi. He looked toward the source and saw Izuma, wearing a fake beard which he obviously could see since his mouth is covered by his mask, on his hand he hold a wooden staff as he posed like an old man that has a spine problem.
"One century you have made me wait sonny, and now you appeared, don't you know it's rude to make your elders waiting!" Old man Izuma complained as he waved his staff on the air. Kakashi on his part sweatdropped at his student over-exaggerated expression on his lateness, while Sakura and Naruto sighed at their teammates acting.
"…right, so now that we're here it's time to start the test, and to pass this test, you must get these two bells from me" as Kakashi said those words, he pulled out two bells from his pocket.
"But there are only two of them, and there are three of us!" Naruto complained.
"Correct. That means one of you won't get a bell. The one that doesn't get one will be send back to the Academy" Kakashi said, as soon as he said that he could see his genin's face getting paler.
"Huh? What's that you said sonny, you'll have to speak louder!" Said Old man Izuma. Kakashi looked at his cosplaying student and sighed.
"You can use all the equipment you have, oh and you will have to come at me with intent to kill. You'll only have until noon to get the bells, starting from…NOW!"Kakashi said as his genins disappeared in to the forest, the only one left is Old man Izuma. He looked at his student and sighed as he pulled out a particular little orange book.
"You know, the others already disappeared right" Kakashi pointed out at the fact
"Huh what did you say? You like to dance? Oh ho, me too! I remembered the time when I was young like you youngster, moving my hips like the devils dace, I was the greatest dancer at in my years, but it seems old age caught up to me, and I've been moving really, really, SLOW!" as he said those word Izuma swiftly pulled his fake beard, and threw it at Kakashi's direction.
The thrown beard shows the edge of something pointy, a kunai.
Seeing the incoming object, Kakashi tilted his head and the hidden kunai missed "You didn't think it will be that easy don't you think?"
"No I expected it to be that foolish, Naruto now!" as he said those words the bearded kunai poofed and turned into Naruto Uzumaki that holds a kunai on his hand. Naruto threw his kunai at Kakashi, which he easily caught in his hand.
Kakashi was able to relax a bit and gave Naruto an eye smile "that was creative both of you, but still not enough" said Kakashi.
"Hmph, the eye see what they wanted to see, we almost got you sensei, but we're not finished yet" as Naruto said those words, Kakashi heard a movement on his back and saw that Izuma moved toward him in speed and wore his Oni mask on.
For Izuma it was very easy to predict Kakashi's movement seeing him in a different speed, he moved and swung his word with might. Kakashi on his part blocked the attack with the kunai, but he heard another movement and remembered that Naruto was still on his back, he could see for a brief glance that Naruto was after his back with a strike.
Retaliating in Naruto's move he kicked him hard while still blocking Izuma's strikes. Naruto fell to the ground and poofed from existence, revealing that it was Shadow clone.
'Shadow Clone?! Then he's hiding somewhere around here, and Sakura still haven't come out from her hiding' he thought as he now focused his attention on Izuma.
Throughout the slash and block Izuma saw many opportunity to defeat Kakashi, but hold out on it and let Kakashi block his attacks. 'Now let's get this starting' he thought as he jumped a distance away from Kakashi.
"Well, well, so my cute little Genins has been preparing to defeat me huh?" Kakashi asked
"Well it would have been a success if you weren't such a big bad strong Jounin" Izuma grumbled
"Now, now, don't be sore losers, one loss doesn't mean you're demise"
"That's right not mine, but yours, NOW!"
From the water river behind Kakashi sprung several clones of Naruto coming at Kakashi. The entire clone holds on their hand a kunai with explosive tag tied on it which surprises Kakashi as he needed to move fast.
"Eat This!" Izuma screamed as he put up a hand sign and activated a coupled of seals.
Kakashi was blocked with the appearance of several barrage of shuriken coming from the forest, coming in all direction, and thinking fast he sprung a series of Hand seals.
"Earth Style: Hiding Mole Technique" As he finished he dived underground.
Underground an explosion went and opened his cover which isn't that deep. Kakashi got out of the cover and evade a series of explosion.
The clones threw their barrage of explosive kunai and managed to move Kakashi near the edge of forest, which he didn't realize, is where Sakura hide herself.
(With Sakura)
Sakura stared at scene as she observed that her part is almost arriving. She was amaze at the scene in front of her, every movement that her sensei and teammates made was almost as if it was written in a script, all of it was as Izuma predicted, and it felt like seeing Kakashi had been tied and played like a doll ever since he caught the kunai from Naruto's attack.
'I still can't believe Kakashi-sensei is a pervert! Him, a Jounin!' she thought angrily
She looked at the coming form of Kakashi, as she heard someone behind her, and saw her teammate's clone arriving like Izuma said.
"Sakura, your part is coming prepare yourself, and remember, Kakashi doesn't just read porn book while he walks, and he also peeks on women's side of the Hotspring! (Lies)" he said to her which got the reaction the clone wanted.
"HE WHAT!" screamed a really angry looking Sakura, she doesn't realize that Izuma already touched her body and Sushined behind Kakashi.
'He thinks just because he's some kind of a badass Jounin he could do whatever he likes on woman! Well I'll show him!' thought the angry Sakura as a murder aura practically leaked out of her body.
(With Kakashi)
Kakashi could feel a killing intent directed toward him, he looked and where the killing intent was directed from and surprised to find that it came from behind him.
And lo behold what he found was a really angry looking Sakura with her fist all red and steamy ready to punch something to kingdom come. Kakashi visibly paled at what is currently in front of him. He could practically see the aura leaking out of her. There are words inscribed in it.
'Woman's Pride!' and 'Death'
"SHANNARO!" Screamed Sakura as she punched her teacher with all her murderous might. Kakashi eyes bulged out as he shattered to pieces!
Naruto on his part looked surprise and had his jaw dropped from his hiding spot as she punched Kakashi into pieces, the thought of a full on might of an angry woman is to be paled upon, 'Wait pieces?!'
Izuma just smirked that his plan worked, 'and now for the final part' he thought as he looked at the shattering pieces of Sakura, 'still it surprises me that Sakura was able to use Aura like in HUNTERXHUNTER' oh he knew Sakura was able to use Aura, when he first got beaten up by Sakura he noticed the aura that is practically leaking out of her body, deducing that anger emotion is the trigger to the opening of her Aura he planned on enraging Sakura to punch the hell out of Kakashi. Sakura, obvious affinity, Enhancer.
Though he also predicted that Kakashi would Kawamiri himself with a log.
Sakura finally realized that she had just PUNCHED her sensei into pieces! That quelled her anger state into a horrified state; she could feel her stomach twisting as she thought she had just killed her teacher, but that thought went away as she noticed that her teacher had been replaced into a log! She had punched a log into pieces!
She was too late to notice as she was pushed down to the ground hold by her still very living and healthy teacher, though she could see him sweating.
"*whistle* that was some killer punch there Sakura, that punch you gave me would've killed me and sent me to the next heaven if didn't replace myself, glad that you listened to my words" Praised Kakashi toward the downed girl. He noticed that Izuma came out of the hiding and attempted to rescue Sakura, but was ambushed by a clone of Kakashi, and held down like Sakura did.
"Well you all proved yourself to be quite the interesting bunch and to finally let's not forget our, lovable little Blondie" as soon as he said that word Naruto appeared.
"Now that you're the last one Naruto, what are you going to do?" asked the curious Kakashi.
"Naruto! Plan A failed, go with Plan B, I'm giving you permission to use it!"Screamed the downed Izuma, Kakashi wondered what this Plan B, is supposed to be.
He looked at the grinning blonde as he made the hand sign for Shadow clone, and poofed two clones into existence on his side.
"Alright, let's do this!" Naruto said as he and the clones made another series of hand sign. Kakashi still holding down Sakura didn't notice that Sakura's hand was trying to grab the bell on Kakashi's belt.
"Sexy Jutsu!" as the technique was declared, two people got their eye bulged out of their head, and one person got a really restrained anger.
What came out of the smoke was what every man would dream of seeing, Smoking hot babes that description matches the very book he's reading right now. The sexy pose they made, the lustful voice they made as the called out Kakashi, it was what he would say, heaven on earth.
Sadly he didn't have any more time as he blacked out. While Kakashi was ogling at the Sexy Jutsu, Sakura was grabbing the bells while Kakashi was fully distracted, when she got both of the bells she threw a punch right under his jaw which resulted in him passing out.
She took a glance at her knocked out sensei and muttered "Pervert" at the unconscious man.
Izuma made hand sign, and from the forest a kunai launched and embed into the Kakashi clones head which resulted in poofing it out of existence. He got up from the ground and walked toward Sakura that had a smile on her face as she showed him the two bells hanging on her hand.
Naruto dropped the technique and made his way toward his teammate. All of them had a smile as they reallized they had just beaten their Jounin-sensei.
"Guys we did it! And Sakura-chan that was a cool finisher you did back there! You punched Kakashi-sensei flying, that was awesome dattebayo!" said the happy looking Naruto.
"Thanks Naruto, and...Oh yeah what was that Jutsu you used? Sexy Jutsu?" Asked Sakura with a dangerous glance and a bit of murder aura leaked from her body as she narrowed her eyes toward Naruto who backed a bit and had sweats coming out of his head.
Izuma saw this and moved in to help his bro in trouble. "Now, now Sakura because of that jutsu we manage to beat Kakashi-sensei, I think this one deserves a pass for its deed" Izuma said to her.
Sakura just looked at her teammate and contemplated on his words, which in every essence is true. Their first plan was supposed to be distracting Kakashi and luring him into a spot where Sakura hid herself, Izuma and Naruto used their combined surprise attack and distract Kakashi from the real looming threat, and when Kakashi is close enough to where Sakura hid, a clone of Izuma will appear for Sakura and teleport her exactly behind their unsuspecting sensei, and that's when Sakura will punch Kakashi with her undeniable might of anger, and knocking Kakashi out, which is their chance to take the bells from their sensei.
Though there are the surprising part where instead of a knockout punch, was a Killing punch, which surprised them in many degrees.
And the using of Plan B.
(Flash Back)
"Well you guys know the plan, but I want to make contingency plan if all fails" Izuma said to his teammates.
"So what's the contingency plan?" Asked Sakura
"Sakura, when your part appears and your K.O punch fails then we're going to need 'That' jutsu" Izuma said while emphasizing 'That' which confused Sakura, but Naruto caught on to what he meant
"Oh! So you're going to need me to use 'That'?" Asked Naruto
"Yes, that technique might be our only last shot at passing this test" Said Izuma
Sakura on her part was confused as hell, she didn't know what technique they were both talking about, and they kept using emphasize to hid the name of the technique.
A secret Jutsu that might be able to defeat a Jounin? And why Naruto? These questions keep bothering her head.
"Sakura!" Izuma said to her, as she began to realize her name was called many times.
"Hai!" she responded as she blushed in embarrassment, Izuma just sighed at her.
"Remember, when Naruto used his technique your job is to grab the bells from Kakashi-sensei, that simple." Izuma said to her which she nodded at, though still curios about the secret Jutsu.
(Flash Back End)
And surprise, surprise for Sakura. The great secret jutsu that was able to defeat a jounin was flashing a naked woman in front of her sensei.
"..Ugh fine, but can you at least explain to me about the Jutsu you used" Sakura grunted as she chose her logic instead of pride. The other two looked visibly relief at the response.
"Sexy Jutsu, it's actually a simple henge technique that required Shadow clones to do it, the purpose of this technique is actually to distract someone that is distinctively a male, if I have to evaluate right I would say it can be compared to a Kinjutsu" Izuma said
"A forbidden technique?" Sakura asked
"Yup, that technique was so effective that it even manage to stun Kakashi-sensei, long enough for you to knock him out remember?" said Izuma, while Sakura only nodded at the explanation.
They heard a rustling behind the bushes where their sensei flew, and saw the rising form of Kakashi as he got up and groaned. He looked at his Genin and saw that Sakura was holding both of the Bells.
"Well that was a really suprising cheap shot coming from you Naruto, and Sakura, that punch you gave me really did a number on my jaw, all of you worked together and now Sakura holds both bells, usually I would have make Sakura choose who returns and who stays, but I suspect that you guys already know the point of this test huh?" He said to his students, which they nodded.
"The Point of this test is Teamwork, right Kakashi-sensei?" said the grinning for of Naruto.
Kakashi, only chuckled at the enthusiasm.
"Correct, in our line of work, teamwork is the most important factor for the success of a mission. You always have to remember that rules and guidelines are not absolute. If you fought to get these bells individually you would've overall lost, even if you would've managed to get one. Those that break the rules are trash in the world of Shinobi, but those who abandoned their comrade, are even lower than trash. Always remember that. We fought in three wars and came out victorious because we cherished our comrades" Kakashi said as his genins listened to his words intently.
Kakashi pointed toward the Memorial Stone.
"On this stone the names of those we call heroes in Konoha are engraved. All those Shinobi died in the line of duty. They are never forgotten because their comrades keep their memories alive. You have all passed this test, and as for tomorrow we will start as Team 11, you will gather here at this training ground at 7am, dismissed" Kakashi ordered as he disappeared with a Sushin.
(In The Hokage Office)
In the Hokage's office the Jounin were assembling to report the results of their genin tests. Kakashi being the fashionable late scarecrow he is, arrived two hours late, which made him, receive an angry glare from Kushina Uzumaki that is wearing her Jounin Uniform. Kakashi turned to his former sensei for help.
Minato seeing the angry look on her wife can only give Kakashi a bittersweet smile.
After the first six teams had been reported to have failed, it was Kushina's turn.
"Team Seven passed" she said which gained a smile from Minato.
Kurenai reported hers
"Team eight passed" She said
Asuma was next
"Team ten passed" He said
Last was Kakashi.
"Team eleven passed" He said
The others stared at him unbelievingly. It was well known that Kakashi never passed a team. Minato gave a smile at Kakashi that shows appreciation.
"I would like the report on the Genins performance tomorrow morning, everyone except Kushina and Kakashi are dismissed" Minato ordered. The other Jounin exited the office, while Kakashi and Kushina stayed.
"Kakashi, would like your assessment on Team eleven." Minato said to him
Kakashi nodded "Team Eleven, I'll start with your son Naruto, he's strong as a high-genin if I have to say, and I have to say that he has a very good Chakra control seeing that he was able to create multiple Shadow Clones without a sweat, though I suspected the Uzumaki's enormous Chakra reserves is also a factor. He hasn't showed any other Jutsu other than the Shadow Clone, and the Sexy Jutsu." Kakashi said. That last part really caught both parents attention.
"Wa-wait! Did you just say 'Sexy Jutsu'? Kushina asked as a little bit of anger leaked from her body thinking that her own child was using a technique playing as an adult sexy woman.
Kakashi only sweated "Now, now it was actually a very effective technique your son created, it manage to distract me long enough for me to get knocked out" he said. as soon as those word registered into Kushina, her angry visage disappeared, and replaced with confusion? 'A Genin manage to knock out Kakashi?' she thought aloud.
"Kakashi please continue" Said Minato
"Right, that brings us to Sakura Haruno, from the record of her in the academy she's supposed to be the weakest of the bunch, her physical performance according to the Academy report is the lowest only intelligence and good chakra control, but I saw potential in her as she was the one knocked me out" Kakashi said which shocked both occupant. Kakashi continued.
"My first encounter with her was looking at an angry looking child that has all of her anger directed at me, she threw a fast and powerful punch, I barely replaced myself using the Kawamiri, the punch hit me bit and the result was terrifying. The punch she threw at me was truly a killing punch, the log that replaced me was shattered into pieces, and when I managed to apprehend her before she realized your son appeared and used the technique which distracted me from realizing that my bells were already taken and that she threw a punch at my face that knocked me out" Said Kakashi.
"Go on, the last one" Minato said
"Last one, Izuma Hakazaru, Academy reported that he was the rookie of the year, and that report was not saying any wrongs. From what I gathered, he was the one that manage to get Sakura, and Naruto to work together to defeat me, he has a fairly good skill in Fuinjutsu, I saw one of the trap he set up, a storage seal was embed to a tree, it was what he used to trap me for Sakura to hit me. When I first appeared to the training ground what I saw was a really eccentric child, he was dressing like an old man which was actually a ridiculous cover, but that was only a distraction, the beard of the costume he used turned out to be Kunai, he threw it at me and when it missed it turned into Naruto's clone throwing a Kunai at my direction. He has mastery in Kenjustsu, when we were on a deadlock with each other, I saw many windows of opportunity to strike me down that he gave up purposely. As for chakra control, he has very good control of it as he was able to use the Sushin no Jutsu, along with your son" Kakashi said which surprised them both.
"Eh...ehm, thank you Kakashi, just sent in the report of their performance in my office. You're dismissed" Said Minato, which Kakashi nodded and left the room. Now the two are the only one left, and they both have some serious thinking faces.
"Minato-kun, our Naru is now stronger that we first thought, do you think he will be able stand up against Mito and Natsumi?" Asked the wondering wife, Minato had a contemplating look on his face but then smiled at his wife.
"Don't worry Kushina, I'm sure he'll be able to, if I ever know my own son for something I'd say that he's the most Unpredictable kid in this family, and he pretty much inherited almost your entire trait." Said Minato which his wife giggled at remembering the little boisterous kid in the family is to be compared to Kushina when she was only a kid.
Minato and Kushina already noticed, they had pushed their son away from the family, maybe for way too long, it all started when Jiraya came to the house informing both of them about some prophecy from the Great Toad Sage, The Great Toad Sage spoke of a prophecy,
'The Child of leaf, siblings they are, two of them holds the power of a fox but none of its wisdom while the other one holds the soul of an ancient one, it's power and wisdom shall lead this child to greatness. Together the siblings will bring changes to the world of Shinobi, to peace, or to its destruction.'
Those were the words of the Great Toad Sage according to Jiraya, but he also said there was a second prophecy. The Great Toad Sage spoke again, another prophecy.
'I see another one, a Child of leaf it is, powerful this child is, and reality bends to the Child's will, he stood in the middle of all as none can deny him, his power speaks volumes, great and terrible, evil and good, light and darkness, everything bowed before this child, the Child's enemies perish before him, the child doesn't look to the world, only to oneself, if this child deem it, he can bring everything to ruin, or prosperity'
That prophecy brought the confusion to them, a child of leaf? Obviously someone from Konoha. The first one obviously spoke about their child, Mito and Natsumi who hold the Chakra of the Kyuubi, and Naruto who holds the soul of the Kyuubi. Their child is going to bring changes to the world of Shinobi, but at the time when they looked at their child again they didn't see the siblings that loved each others like they were, no it wasn't the same.
Mito and Natsumi, both of them held some trait of Minato and Kushina, but none of the came out good.
Mito had become arrogant and full of herself, she's a prodigy for sure, but that fact only made her even more arrogant, a trait from Kushina she inherited was the attention seeker, every now and then she always like when peoples eye are focused on her only, she felt that the universe is only focused on her.
Natsumi, the same as Mito, she's a prodigy as well, but she became cold and full of herself like a typical Uciha would, the only thing she care are her parents and friends, that was the only good thing really.
Both of them are like good siblings to each other, always helping out one and another, the thing that made their bonds so deep is their training years together. Jiraya told Minato and Kushina that the Akatsuki are going to after the Bijuu, he told them that he and Tsunade agreed to teach them so they could survive an encounter against the Akatsuki in the future. At the time it seemed like a very good idea, Kushina even offered to help them in their progress, three teachers are even better than they thought, what they didn't thought to involve in all of this was one thing.
Naruto, their neglected child.
They remember their very ball of sunshine, the loud mouthed blonde kid that always had a smile on his face, always wanting to be like his old man "To be the greatest future HOKAGE!" he always said, and the one who inherited Kushina's stubbornness, back then their family was something they could say perfect, each of them loving each other like family.
But now not anymore.
Those trainings regimes that were given to Mito and Natsumi really cut Naruto out of the family, Kushina was never there for him when he need his mother, Minato was too busy being the Hokage and all, Mito and Natsumi were no longer connected to him like they used too, and his godfather and godmother never had the time for him as they were training his sisters.
Naruto was alone with no one for him in the family.
So he found a friend, one that replaced the role of his family in many ways.
Izuma Hakazaru, the foreign child that came from outside Konoha, the mysterious child that is by all right could be called, a prodigy.
Minato remembers the night Naruto came to his office instead of going to the Kyuubi festival; he himself was about to be done with his work at that time and ready to go with Kushina, Mito, and Natsumi when he arrived. Naruto explained to his father, a foreign kid came from outside Konoha with the help of merchants, and since the kid was new to Konoha he needed to find a place to stay.
His father inquired about the new friend Naruto made and gave Naruto some apartments recommended by him himself.
After that Izuma pretty much filled the hole in Naruto, they eat together in Ichiraku ramen, the played together in the park, hang out together, sometimes they even prank someone together, Izuma had become what Izuma would call, "Best of Bros!"
When he first 'Interviewed' Izuma, he seemed like a normal kid, but after the question and answers he sees the kid as a future problem. A child that is driven to revenge against a monster, in literal. And it had been years since that day and now, he doesn't know what to make of the kid.
(Flash Back)
Minato was having his break after working a lot of Paper work which is still stacking back in his office. He was currently looking at the scenery of his village from the top of the Hokage tower. The view of a very peaceful Konoha really captured his heart.
He just hopes this peace would last.
"Yo, Hokage-sama!" a child voice greeted.
A little bit too early If he might say.
Minato turned and came face to face with the one that called him out. A kid wearing a black jacket wear and yellow pants, has a mask that covers his mouth and nose and has an Oni mask that is strapped on the side of his head. He has a spiky black hair and his eyes are golden yellow.
He immediately recognized the child. A rising start prodigy in the Academy, the one who is best friend with his son.
Izuma Hakazaru, the only child his supposed great intellect can't figure out.
"Oh, hello Izuma-Kun, What are you doing here?" Minato Asked with a smile on his face.
"Oh I'm just visiting you because I have a question about your son Hokage-sama" Izuma said. Minato raised a brown and looked at the child
"Well then, what do you want to know?"
"Well his birthday is coming soon, and I want to give him the best birthday gift ever! I just don't know what to give" Izuma said to the hokage. The Hokage may look calm outside, but inside he's having a panic attack 'Okay calm down now. Your son's birth day is coming and you didn't remember anything about it, so there's a good chance that Kushina might not end up beating me to death.' He thought. He reminisced the past to remember anything his son wanted for his birthday. But soon enough he will realize that he is currently having the early effect of neglecting his son. Confusion.
'Now let's see. Naruto once said he wanted…? I can't remember, maybe he told me that…thing? Okay let's calm down. Maybe Kushina knows, she always remember stuffs of our children' he thought as he looked back to Izuma
"I'm sorry Izuma-kun, I forgot a thing or two that he wanted" said Minato in an apologetic tone
"Well might as well give Naruto the Bro-code for the Birthday present" he murmured to himself as he bowed to the Hokage and left.
(Flash Back End)
Sadly, when he came to ask Kushina the same question Izuma asked she became numb in realization that she almost never knew about her son anymore, only her daughters. What breaks the ice of reality for them is that their own daughters hated Naruto. The parents only have one feeling looming on their heart. Dread.
The situation brought Kushina into tears as she saw that her family is slowly tearing itself apart without them noticing at all. And what's worse Jiraya brought on the news of the Prophecy from the great toad Sage.
Both parents try their best in convincing Mito and Natsumi to repairing their bond with their own brother, but alas both daughters inherited Uzumaki stubbornness. They don't wanted in any part involving Naruto, To them Naruto is only a weakling, a dead last loser who can't do or take anything seriously'.
Minato tried the other way. and that is training Naruto. but the effect from years of neglecting is finally come to visible, as Naruto always avoids his parents, always using selfless excuses to avoid them in any way. Looking at the mask of sunshine and happiness of his own sun really turned his stomach the wrong way, when in reality his own son is lonely to the core of heart. But Minato also noticed that every time Naruto hangs out with his best friend Izuma, his mask of happiness, always turned into expression of happiness,
That toughens the cakes. Minato had to fix his family quickly, but to do that he need to broke Mito's and Natsumi's wall of Arrogance.
So how else could he get any help in doing this without showing favoritism or a sabotaging conduct?
A deal with the Child Prodigy himself of course.
Help Naruto in his training; Make sure his training would help Naruto in the Chunin Exam. Naruto are to be helped in his training and growth into a Shinobi. Make sure that Naruto can survive in the Chunin exam, and break Mito and Natsumi's confidence.
Others might not realize it, but he could see the growth of his son and his friend. Over the years both of them had quite the exponential growth, now Naruto could be compared to a Mid-Chunin, and his friend Izuma can be compared to a Low-Chunin, though he had a feeling Izuma was hiding his true strength.
Minato sighed as he looked at the worried look of his wife and calmed her down.
(With Izuma)
Izuma took a deep breath and exhaled as he rested on the bed of his apartment, he thought about the Genin exam he took on today and chuckled at it. Naruto had the largest smile of the group when Kakashi told them they passed; Sakura had a proud smile on her face, and Izuma…only a simple smile.
Naruto wanted to celebrate by inviting his teammates by eating at Ichiraku, 'Man that was crazy, Naruto eated those ramen like there was no tomorrow' he thought as he remembered the scene of Naruto filling his mouth with ramen, and Sakura looking angry for not eating properly, and Izuma looking really interested where all the ramen Naruto ate went.
In the end he had a good laugh with them, it was a nice memory.
He looked outside the window and sighed at the view "Tomorrow we're going to start as a team, and the Wave Arc is coming soon. I don't know if this world Wave Arc will be given to them Team 7 or us Team 11. But ever important note, Chunin Exam is coming close too, and Canon or non-Canon, Orochimaru is definitely going to attack Konoha. And when it the time comes I gotta be prepare." He muttered to himself.
He took off his mask and went to the main room of his apartment. He looked around and used [Soul Sensing] to check if the coast was clear. When he was sure, he opened his inventory and pulled out a book.
[Observe]
[The Ark of Heaven: Heavenly body Magic]-Rank: S-Durability: 20/20
The book of magic contains the knowledge of the Heavenly body magic, and the secret of the heavenly magic itself.
He looked at the book and smirked. He took out another item and orb as it rested on his arm. He could feel the orb answering its master's call.
'Well tonight I'm going to be learning a lot of Magic in the dungeons' he thought as he placed the book near the orb itself. He's going to have a really long night, but it will all be worth it.
