Five years later

A figure is now standing in front of the Hokage who seems to be about 5'3 inches tall. He had vibrant blue eyes and blond hair, along with three whisker like marks on his face. His face would be considered "cute" from a girl's perspective. The figure had Anbu like clothes and the side of his right leg he had a hostler that is used for carrying kunai along with a holster on his left leg for a decent sized scroll, also an average sized pouch for shuriken and other ninja essentials on the back of his belt.

"Alright Naruto, since your ninja training is now finished, I want you to become a full pledge ninja for the leaf." said the Hokage with a sense of pride in his unofficial grandson and greatest pupil to date.

"But sensei, don't I have to go to the academy to be a ninja?" asked Naruto slightly confused.

"Do you really want to go to the academy Naruto-kun?" asked Sarutobi before answering his own question. "Well even if you do want to go the academy I can't send you there, because you would be too powerful for an academy student and I don't want to waste your potential learning how to do a bushin, kawarimi, and henge in the academy till your 12." Finished the old kage.

"Okaaaaaaaaaaaaay then, so how do you suppose I become a ninja?" questioned the young blonde lazily as he yawned out loud.

"Well there are special circumstances, but I don't want to waste time by explaining all that stuff. The point is that you could skip ranks by a special test that I want to you to take." Said the Hokage with a sly smirk.

"Is this the special plan you told me about in the beginning of my training?" asked Naruto with genuine curiosity.

(Flashback)

"Okay Naruto for the next eight years I will be teaching you Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, and maybe some Genjutsu." started Konoha's 'Professor' before continuing. "I want to make you strong enough to be able to stand toe to toe with one of the stronger ninja in this village. I also want you to specialize in ninjutsu, fuuinjutsu and also kenjutsu. There are not many ninja in our village that specialized any of these areas, and none who specialize in all of them. Once the training is complete I'll have something special planned for you, so I want you to work as hard as you can. Do we have a deal Naruto-kun?" finished the Sandaime with a smile.

(End-Flashback)

"Hai, so do you want to take the test?" asked Sarutobi with a knowing smile since he knows his young apprentice would never back down from a challenge.

"Well, I suppose if it makes me a ninja." Said Naruto with barely contained excitement.

"Alright I want you be at the Chuunin exam stadium at 11:00 AM sharp one week from today. There will be every Chuunin, and Jounin not currently on a mission, The Clan heads, and the Council members in attendance to see my newest apprentices skill. I want you to put on a show for them since they are going to be deciding if you are strong enough to achieve a high rank or if you'll be a gennin." said the Hokage.

"Okay, one thing though. How did you manage to make the council agree? Since I KNOW you can't do something like this without the council agreeing, and I don't think that many if any of the council members really likes me "asked Naruto with a smirk knowing his sensei did something sneaky.

"Hahaha what? Are you accusing me of doing something devious or underhanded?" questioned the old kage with a look too innocent to be innocent on his face.

(Flashback)

In the council room several noticeable figures in the shinobi community could be seen, mainly the heads of The Hyuuga Clan, The Inuzuka Clan, The Nara Clan, The Akimichi Clan, The Yamanaka Clan, and The Aburame Clan. Also in attendance were several elders and militaristic leaders Koharu, Homaru, Danzo, and of course The Hokage himself. The civilian half of the council was not allowed in the room for this meeting since it had nothing to do with them, this was out of their league meaning it was purely for the Ninja community.

"What is it you called us here for Hokage-sama." said the Inuzuka head calming her usual brash and outspoken personality to fit in with the tense atmosphere.

"Yes, I have to get back to the compound since I have personal matters to take care of, so can we hurry this up." said Hiashi in his usual cold tone though with a hint of annoyance.

"I will get to it if you all will just settle down." this made everyone in the council listen carefully since the Hokage seemed to had a serious look on his face.

"This meeting is concerning the one called Uzumaki Naruto." said the Hokage stretching the name Uzumaki, causing many groans and sighs from the council, because no meeting about that boy is ever quick.

"Are you finally deciding to hand him over to my ROOT so we can make Konoha a perfect weapon?" Said a crippled man with one eye while giving a cruel smirk.

"No Danzo, I am not giving him to the ROOT. I mean why would I give him to you and hamper his growth? Due to the simple fact that there is nothing you could teach him, because your ROOT is weak. Each member is low Anbu and you keep them there on purpose in case you can't control them. The only upside to it is that they are loyal to you to a fault. This is also the reason I've allowed you to keep your pitiful organization, because they are too weak to be anything more than a nuisance…just like you." Stated the Sandaime with a firm tone while he wore a smirk hidden in the shadow of his hat at the look of shock on the councils face, and pure rage on Danzo's. No one expected the 'professor' to say something like that to Danzo in private, let alone in front of the council. (A/N: I know in the original Naruto story, Sandaime disbanded ROOT, but I decided to keep it. So for those of you who didn't know that I wanted to inform you)

"Hai Hokage -sama" said Danzo through gritted teeth, as he knew not to respond because everything The Hokage said was the truth, and to respond would just make him look like a fool.

"So what is you wish to talk to us concerning Uzumaki." said Koharu once the shock passed.

"Well you all know that I've been training him for long time now, so I want to test him to join ninja rank higher than gennin. Since to have him be a gennin would be extremely disadvantageous to Konoha and before you even ask I won't allow him to go the Academy. He is to powerful for it and it would waste his time and potential, at his current strength I believe he would be able to take me on and have a 50 percent chance of winning. That's why I want to give him a test to advance instead of going through all the ranks starting at the bottom." Stated the Sandaime with pride in his voice, as there was a collective gasp from all those in the room.

"But Sarutobi don't you think it's pretty dangerous to give such a young boy so much power? I mean look what happened to Itachi. He killed his whole clan for power, well except his brother." Said Homaru in a worried tone.

"I understand your concern Homaru, but I know Naruto and he doesn't want power for his own selfishness. He wants to be strong and protect everyone in Konoha when he grows up. He has the Will of Fire that some ninjas in our village seem to lack." at this point the Hokage gazed at his ex-teammates and the war hawk Danzo before continuing. "He is also my true protégé and I believe in him." Finished the aging Kage with a smile.

"If that's your choice then I fully support it Hokage-sama." said Hiashi quickly. He wanted to get out of here as soon as possible. Never did like council meetings anyway.

"Thank you Hiashi." Said the old Hokage though he had a feeling it wasn't so much faith in his kage that helped him with his decision or more like annoyance at having to be in another meeting revolving around Naruto.

"Well then, if that's settled then when is the exam going to be?" said Koharu slightly annoyed at the prospect of the young blond being so strong.

Then Sarutobi said, "It will be held in the Chuunin exam stadium in exactly one week from now."

(End-Flashback)

"And you know Naruto not everyone in the council hates you. Well, except Danzo who had asked me to make you join ROOT couples hundred times, so don't lose faith in Konoha yet. I mean, I know that they don't like you much, but someday they will come around and accept you I know they will after all you'll be their Hokage one day." said Sarutobi with a playful edge in his old voice towards the end.

"I hope so old man and you know I could never be angry at someone who's done no true harm towards me or my precious people for too long" said Naruto smiling.

"I know Naruto and remember to be prepared in one week. Polish your skills in this week. Though don't go overboard on your training, because you're going to need your strength with the opponent you're going to be fighting. Now get out since I have a lot of paperwork left to do." Said the Hokage with fear in his voice as he peered at the large stacks of paper that seem to almost be taunting him.

"You know Oji-san I know a way to defeat it, but I'll only tell you when you tell me why more than half of Konoha hates me." with that Naruto shunshined out of the room.

If he had waited a little longer he would've seen the sad face of the Hokage, who was at the moment staring at the picture of hero of Konoha, The Yondaime Hokage.

A week later Naruto could be seen heading to the stadium wondering who his opponent was going to be, and if the person was going to be a good challenge. For the past week he had worked twice as hard preparing for this day. He had spent three days on Ninjutsu solely, and three days for Taijutsu. Then yesterday he took the day to rest his muscles, since they were still sore from the harsh training. He didn't work on Fuuinjutsu since it would really come in handy for an all out fight.

Naruto was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't seem to notice that he was already in the middle of the stadium. Though he was shaken out of his thoughts when someone tapped him on the shoulder. As he looked behind him and saw some guy who was chewing on senbon. 'Hmmm I wonder if this is my opponent. Nah he's looks too weak.' Even though Naruto wasn't the type to underestimate someone, he just couldn't help but do that with this guy. 'I wouldn't even need to go half power to beat him, he must be the proctor.' thought the young blonde. Then as he looked around the stadium and saw the Hokage in a booth with the council members and clan heads in a nearby booth.

On the other section he could see all shinobi waiting patiently for the match to start. But one person caught Naruto's eye in particular, she had beautiful red eyes, brunette hair, and the most beautiful face he had ever seen. With her could be seen another women who was also beautiful, but not as beautiful the red-eyed…Goddess. Also with them was silvered haired man and Asuma Sarutobi.

He then skimmed through more people and didn't seem to notice anyone he knew so he turned to the proctor and said "Are you my opponent, because I don't really see anyone else beside you here." While flaring a portion of his chakra, almost causing the proctor to fall to his knees at the unexpected pressure.

Rather shakily the proctor said, "N-n-no, I'm n-n-not your opponent, b-but he should be here any second. "

Just then everyone heard a girly scream and looked up to see a person falling from the sky and land right next to the proctor. After a minute of twitching the man stood up. He had white hair and had red tattoos under his eyes going down in straight line. Moments later he saw Naruto and said "Soooo, you're my opponent? Hmmmm I thought you'd be bigger from how Sarutobi-sensei kept bragging about you." While eying Naruto.

"If you are my opponent then where the hell were you all this time!? I was starting to lose my patients and why the hell did you fall from the sky?"

"Well you see I was searching to see if there are enemies in Konoha and I suddenly encountered a dangerous foe and after fighting a couple of minutes I finally managed to defeat the foe, but before I land the fatal blow, the enemy he used and incredible Taijutsu move to make me fly and that's why I was late." Said the new arrival with a proud look that he was able to save face in front the crowd.

Naruto not believing the story said, "Is that why you have slap mark on your face?"

Just then the man gave another girly scream and shouted, "HEY I TOLD YOU IT WAS A POWERFUL ATTACK!" crying in anime style.

A Minute before…

The same man could be seen spying on the women in the hot spring before he felt an evil aura, and looked back to see a group of women who had dark auras surrounding them. They then screamed in unison, "WHY YOU LITTLE PERVERT! PREPARE TO FACE DIVINE PUNISHMENT!" and the leader slapped him so hard that it sent him flying three quarters of the way across Konoha.

Present time

"So now that you are here what's you name." said Naruto immediately regretting his question.

The man then did a crappy dance while summoning a large toad under him and said," I AM THE PROTECTOR OF WEAK AND ELIMINATOR OF THE ENEMY FOR I AM JIRAIYA THE TOAD SANNIN."

Causing everyone in the stadium to drop and Naruto said, "Okay then now can we get started with the show already."

This made Jiraiya say, "Why? Are you so anxious to get your ass handed by me that you can't wait?" with a smirk before it was returned ten-fold by the young blonde before him.

"Whatever Ero-Sennin." Remarked the young man causing a tick to appear on Jiraiya's forehead.

Just then before Jiraiya could retort the Hokage rose from his seat and said, "SHINOBI OF KONOHA, TODAY WE'LL BE EXPERIENCING A BATTLE BETWEEN TWO OF MY STUDENTS JIRAIYA THE TOAD SANNIN AND MY NEW APRENTICE UZUMAKI NARUTO. THIS BATTLE WE WILL BE JUDGED BY THE COUNCIL AND I TO SEE WHICH RANK HE SHOULD ATTAIN. SO ENJOY THE SHOW, BECAUSE THIS MIGHT BE A FIGHT YOU WILL NEVER GET TO SEE AGAIN AND MOST LIKELY WILL NEVER FORGET." Loudly stated the Hokage before announcing to for the proctor to begin. "PROCTOR, START THE MATCH."

Naruto and Jiraiya was facing opposite of each other and the proctor was on the side of the field and he said, " Okay the rules are that you are simple no killing each other. I will call match if I see one person is unconscious or unable to continue due to injuries. NOW ARE YOU TWO READY."

"Hai" said Naruto and Jiraiya in unison.

"HAJIME." Shouted the proctor.

Up in the stand

Four people were conversing quietly with one another up in the stands. "What was Hokage-sama thinking letting a nine year old kid fight a sannin? I mean I know he might be strong since he was trained by the Hokage, but he can't be strong enough to go up against a sannin, and Jiraiya-sama is said to be the strongest of the sannin." Said the women with red eyes.

"I am not so sure about that Kurenai. I saw that kid spar with my dad and he seemed pretty strong to me. In fact I am pretty sure he would be able to fight Kakashi and have a good chance of winning." Said the bearded man smoking a cigarette, making everyone who heard him go wide eyed.

"That's impossible Asuma! Everyone knows that Kakashi is considered one of the strongest Jounin in the village. The only person who might be able to go up against him and win is Gai! Well and of course Hokage-sama would beat him, but my point still stands he's strong and this kid is 9." Said Kurenai in a voice full of disbelief making Asuma chuckle.

"Well we'll just have to see won't we? My dad seems pretty confident in his student or otherwise he wouldn't pit him against Jiraiya-sama." said the amused chain smoker as he lit up again.

"Well then let's just watch the match and see what the kid's got." Said Kakashi in an amused tone.

Back to Naruto and Jiraiya's fight

As soon as the word 'HAJIME' had been said, both Naruto and Jiraiya jumped backwards pulling out kunai and tossing them at each other. They met each other right in the middle of the arena with clang as metal hit metal. Then they both leapt forward at speeds that no ninja below Jounin could see clearly, then after landing at the same time they both threw a right jab at each other connecting in the middle. Once both fists hit the ground beneath their feet crumbled from the pressure and both fighters struggled to overpower the other. Seeing as neither could overpower the other at the moment both jumped back and Jiraiya started doing hand seals and said "Katon: Phoenix Flower" which was avoided easily by a burst of speed. As fight continued both fighters exchanged crippling blows for several minutes, Jiraiya sensing this was going nowhere decided to go all out, and then moved at blinding speed unseen by most people except the elite ninja watching. Naruto was easily able to see it but wasn't fast enough to dodge the punch that sent him flying into the stadium wall.

As Naruto stood from rubble he had a split lip which was quickly healing, and a couple of rips in this shirts though that was the full extent of the of his injuries. Then with a glance at Jiraiya he smirked and said, "So you finally decided to go all out huh Jiraiya-sama? Well then it seems that I don't have to hold back" and with that he put his hands in ram seal causing a vortex of chakra to swirl around him. Then with a shout of, "KAI" and suddenly seals connected to each other appeared all over his skin, making everyone who recognized it go wide eyed including Jiraiya.

Sandaime was the only one not surprised as he suppressed a smirk and whispered to himself, "So you've finally decided to show your true strength, eh Naruto-kun"

In the stands Kurenai and her female friend were confused, because they never seen anything like it. This made Kurenai look at Anko with a confused look on her face and say, "Hey Anko, do you know what's happening? I've never seen anything like it in my life."

"Well don't ask me, this is first time I've seen it. Maybe it will give him power like the snake freak's curse seal," Anko spat out as she subconsciously rubbed her neck.

Kakashi deciding to answer the question since he knew it was better to prevent any mishaps that may happen if Anko thought Naruto had any connection to Orochimaru said, "Anko that's not a curse seal. What you're seeing right now is a highly advanced gravity seal that hasn't been seen in twelve years. The last person to use this type of gravity seal was the Yondaime Hokage himself. This is because there haven't been any seal masters that could make such a complex seal like that. I don't know how he got his hands on seal like this, but from the amount of them I'd say his speed and strength are about to go through the roof."

"He made them himself." Asuma decided to cut in casually while opening up another pack of cigarettes.

"WHAT!" screamed out Anko, Kurenai, and Kakashi simultaneously.

"He made those seal from a rough sketch and description from what the Yondaime made, it was his final test from my father to see if he was worthy of the title of Seal Master. This kid is a Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, and Fuuinjutsu specialist, and is about to start advancing his skills in Kenjutsu sometime soon. Hell if I had to guess from what I've seen and heard my dad mention I would most likely place his Fuuinjutsu skills about as good as the Yondaime, maybe even better." said Asuma smoking his cigarette like nothing he said was any big deal, when secretly he loved seeing the shocked looks on his comrades faces.

"DAMN, I wonder how good this kid really is?" said Kakashi in shock because he's considered an advanced seal specialist himself, but even his skills pale in comparison to his late sensei.

"Well, we'll know if the gaki as strong as you claim if he manages to beat Jiraiya-sama, but I doubt it." Replied a still awe struck Anko.

As the chakra around Naruto died down, the young blonde looked at Jiraiya before saying," Let's begin" then after getting a nod from Jiraiya the fight was back on.

As Jiraiya was about to go into his defensive fighting stance he quickly found it harder to do than he thought when Naruto's fist connected to the side of his face delivering a jaw shattering punch that made everyone's lower jaw drop as they thought that Jiraiya's jaw was broken after that punch. What they didn't know though was that to the old pervert it felt like a love tap compared to when his old teammate found him peeping, and he only lost a couple teeth. 'Damn I was caught off guard, and didn't think he would be this fast. He's a lot faster than me, but I should be able to keep up since I've got 40 some years experience on the gaki.' thought Jiraiya as he spat out two teeth.

Naruto then sped toward Jiraiya before he jumped up and brought his leg down while saying, "Painful Sky Leg" which Jiraiya luckily blocked, but not completely as there was an audible cracking sound coming from both forearms.

Jiraiya winced thinking with a bitter laugh, 'Shit, the brat is physically stronger than me too. What's next? Is he going to use a jutsu that would make him so fast that I won't be able to follow?' After being beaten up for a couple minutes he was finally able to get accustomed to Naruto's speed, and make use of his experience to dodge a little over half the blows thrown at him while only landing one or two. They stopped as suddenly as they started on opposite sides of where they started, both looking slightly winded, Jiraiya more so than Naruto.

Naruto thinking that he had enough of Taijutsu and wanted to see what the legendary sannin had in his Ninjutsu arsenal and asked. "Well it looks like we are both about equal in Taijutsu with your experience versus my speed and strength advantages, so why don't we test our Ninjutsu?"

Which caused Jiraiya to sigh a breath of relief as he knew he wouldn't last as long if they continued on with Taijutsu and it would look bad for him to be the first to resort to Ninjutsu and say," Well if that's what you want then let's see what you got gaki."

Then both fighters jumped up in the air and started doing hand seals, which to most people seems like a blur. Suddenly Naruto called out, "Fuuton: Air Bullet" which was countered by Jiraiya's, "Futon: Great Breakthrough" which was completely ineffective due to the overwhelming power of the air bullet, seeing as it isn't the signature move of Shukaku for nothing even if it wasn't as strong as the demon can do. Naruto then went through more seals at a speed that was but a blur to all but a few of the spectators before shouting out. "Raiton: Lightning shot"

As Naruto thrust his right hand forward after announcing the name with his index and middle finger pointing outward towards Jiraiya, and a ball of lightning shot out of the fingers going straight for Jiraiya.

Thinking on his feet Jiraiya made some quick seals and said. "Doton: Earth Shot" He quickly dragged both of his hands on the ground knocking two chunks of earth came out and flew as Jiraiya tapped them quickly shot them at the lightning ball heading toward him.

The two attacks collided and the ball of lightning went right through the first earth ball and detonated as it hit the second knocking up dust and debris blocking the spectators view momentarily. Everyone in the stadium suddenly heard the sounds of metal clashing and flesh hitting flesh when a few seconds later two jutsu were launched one before the other.

"Doton: Earth Dragon Projectile" Shouted Jiraiya after doing a few quick seals and sent a large dragon made of earth straight towards the young blonde.

Sensing the large amount of chakra being molded by Jiraiya and immediately started up his own set of hand seals drew in a huge breath of air and shouted "Katon: Fire Dragon Flame Projectile" while he blew out a huge dragon made of fire that roared to life dissipating the dust as it flew straight towards the fast moving dragon made of earth. The two collided and blew up against each other shaking the stadium. Everyone in the stadium had to cover their faces from the small pebbles flying up and hitting them, as well as from the heat given off by the intense flames.

When the dust settled, the entire arena was reshaped. The middle where the two attacks had met had molten rock instead of the normal flat ground. Everyone present looked for the two fighters that were going at it, only to hear clash after clash of metal above them.

During the mini aerial Naruto landed a kick on Jiraiya's chin sending him rocketing towards the ground. Then he quickly started to do more hand seals and shouted out, "Katon: Great Fireball Technique" while utilizing his immense chakra reserves and used five times as much chakra as normal thus creating an extremely large ball of flame heading at the quickly falling Jiraiya.

Noticing the huge fireball heading right at him Jiraiya quickly used a simple Kawarimi no jutsu to replace himself with a discarded kunai from earlier. After seeing the gaping crater left after the fireball hit he was even more grateful for not trying to counter it. Once again both fighters stood in the center of the battlefield Jiraiya was missing his vest and the rest of his top sliced up, his geta (his weird sandals) looked about ready to break into splinters, along with several cuts, contusions, fractures and missing teeth. While Naruto was in far better condition only having a few cuts caused from glancing blows and his shirt was slightly shredded showing off an amazing body for a 9 year old making more than a few girls blush, but other than that he was only slightly winded.

With a smirk Naruto said "Okay Jiraiya-sama I think we should end this now. What do you think?" knowing that the Gama Sannin would jump at the chance to end this soon since he was quickly losing face as he was manhandled by a kid.

Jiraiya sighed before covering up his exhaustion with a smirk and said, "Agreed" as he held out his right hand and formed a ball of pure chakra that seemed to spin in numerous directions. This action caused several people who recognized the jutsu, quickly whispers about how Jiraiya having to resort to that jutsu.

Those who didn't recognize it decided to ask about it. Kurenai herself had never seen the attack before and heard Kakashi gasp in surprise so she decided to get some answers. "Kakashi, do you know what that jutsu is?"

"That's an A-rank jutsu created by the Yondaime. That jutsu was feared among Iwa shinobi above all else considering how many of their ninja died by that jutsu during the war. It just took about three years for the Yondaime to create, and after he finished it he taught it to Jiraiya-sama." said Kakashi. 'Along with me though I never did learn the third step.' He thought. This made Anko and Kurenai go wide eyed thinking there is no way that Naruto could win against a jutsu like that, as well as thinking of how strong the kid must be to make Jiraiya resort to that jutsu.

"So you are using Rasengan against me huh?" said Naruto with no small amount of enthusiasm in his voice at the prospect of facing that jutsu.

"Oh, you know the name, then you should also know how powerful this jutsu is right?" mocked Jiraiya as he held the spiraling sphere of chakra in his right palm to his side.

"It may be powerful, but I also have my own jutsu that I created and I've been itching at testing it against the Rasengan. You will be the first person to experience it firsthand. Even the Sandaime doesn't know the full extent of its power." said Naruto with unwavering confidence in his voice. This peaked the Sandaime's interest since he too wanted to know the true extent of the jutsu. Naruto then started doing ten hand seals so fast that even sharingan would have trouble following, though even if they did they'd only have half of it since he dropped half the seals as to prevent it from being copied. As he stopped he held his right hand up towards the sky where a cloud formed in the sky making it seem like it was already nighttime when suddenly Naruto was hit by a powerful black lightning bolt which created a crater around him. When it died down Naruto's whole right forearm and hand could be seen covered by black lightning forming a rough cone shape at the tips of his fingers.

"Gaki, do you think a Raiton jutsu like that could defeat a jutsu like Rasengan? You should know that this jutsu has chakra spinning randomly in over a dozen different directions that even if you broke through it would only lose stability and send gale force winds towards you shredding your arm with your own attack. So I must ask you are you a masochist or are you a complete moron?" said Jiraiya smirking. Everyone in the stadium was thinking along those lines, multiple Aburame Clan members were thinking that it was very logical.

"Well then why don't we just find out if your theory is correct?" said Naruto with a knowing smirk, before speeding towards Jiraiya at a level of speed Jiraiya could only guess was about as fast as his old student was when he first became a Jounin.

Quickly shaking those thoughts from his mind Jiraiya quickly charged as fast as he could towards his young opponent. Both fighters then moved their right hands back before thrusting them forward with all their strength. Before both jutsu connected they called out simultaneously, "Raiton: God of Night Lightning" while Jiraiya called out "Rasengan" When both jutsu met each other in the center of the arena they created a huge amount of whirlwind with streaks of black lightning swirling about both opponents. Then suddenly Jiraiya's Rasengan gave out and became wild once Naruto's jutsu penetrated the outer shell, the resulting explosion happened as the Toad Sannin predicted until things reversed. As the Rasengan became unstable Jiraiya expected it to turn the black lightning back towards Naruto ending the match, though instead it just dissipated. Once Naruto's attack broke through the Rasengan he redirected it towards a major nerve cluster in Jiraiya's chest, before blunting the attack as to not kill the old pervert. Once the now blunt black lightning encased arm struck the chest a surge of intense electricity went through his body making let out an unearthly yell "AAARRRGGGHHH!" Making the crowd shutter at the power just displayed, and at the fact that it caused one of the combatants was in agony.

A minute after the dust cleared out Jiraiya could be seen laying unconscious on his back twitching violently with a huge burn mark the size of Naruto's fist on his chest, along with his hair standing on end, and ear wax melted and running out his ears. Then one could look at Naruto and see him panting heavily after having just used a quarter of his remaining chakra reserves which was only actually one eighth of his original reserves on that jutsu alone which is still more than the average Chuunin has total, with a slightly burnt and smoking right forearm and hand, but otherwise unhurt.

Up in the stands everyone was shocked at the show of power and speed. None of the spectators other than the Hokage, Maito Gai, the higher ups in the Hyuuga Clan, and Hatake Kakashi with his sharingan on could even slightly follow their movements. The rest of the people were staring in shock at the young blonde thinking how the hell a kid could even keep up with a Sannin let alone defeating him.

Kurenai summed up everyone's thoughts. "Amazing…" People who heard her couldn't agree more with her as they just nodded their heads in the affirmative.

The Hokage was the first one to break out of his thoughts and said, "Ahem, Genma-kun can you please announce the match?"

"Ohh, ri- right Hokage-sama. THE FIGHT BETWEEN UZUMAKI NARUTO AND THE GAMA SANNIN JIRAIYA-SAMA HAS ENDED AND THE WINNER OF THE MATCH IS UZUMAKI NARUTO BY KNOCK OUT!"

After the announcement everyone started cheering for Naruto even the most diehard Naruto haters cheered, after all it's not every day one sees a clearly kage level. The proctor motioned for the medic-nin to come and take both fighters since Jiraiya was still out like a light, and Naruto seemed to be on his last legs because he had reactivated his gravity seals, which took a good portion of his remaining chakra.

In the Hokage booth Koharu Said, "You raised another powerful shinobi Sarutobi what's that now four kage level students? You've made a wise choice with this one Sarutobi he's this strong at such a young age and has nowhere to go but up." everyone there couldn't agree with Koharu more with that.

"I know, ok now we'll be meeting in three days from now in the council office to discuss what rank he should attain." said the Hokage with a proud smile on his face before him shunshined out of the booth.

Three days later Council room…

Everyone ranging from Elite Jounin and up was in the council room waiting for Jiraiya, The Hokage, and Naruto to arrive. Then the door opened door and in came the three people they were waiting for. The Hokage took his respective seat while wearing his traditional robes, while his two students followed and stood in the corner. The room took note of the attire they had on noticing Naruto wearing his casual clothes consisting of some black jeans, a white tank top and black shoes and looked completely fine like he hadn't just fought a kage level opponent three days before hand, besides him Jiraiya stood with his upper body wrapped in bandages along with some on his neck and arms with a new red vest overtop of them and otherwise dressed the same.

When everyone was settled the Hokage started saying with a smirk, "Alright, everyone here has seen the battle between Naruto and Toad Sannin Jiraiya and it seems Jiraiya lost quite badly if I do recall." getting a glare from Jiraiya and some snickers from the Jounin and a smirk from Naruto. "Today we are here to decide which rank Uzumaki Naruto is to receive due to him passing his test with flying colors and is now qualified to skip going to though academy and can become a ninja of any rank we decide here today." Started the Hokage while trying to gage the reactions of the assembled ninja and was quite please that none other than Danzo had any hate in their eyes regarding Naruto, then continued. "Now I will go through rank from Chuunin up and anyone who supports the rank suggested will raise their hand and I will take the majority vote to decide his rank." said Hokage before starting the rank selection process. "Alright, all those in favor of Uzumaki Naruto promoted to the rank of Chuunin?"

No one except Danzo agreed on Naruto being a Chuunin, this wasn't due to the fact that really wanted a free thinking powerhouse like Naruto in ROOT, no it's because he would love to lure his rivals student away from hopefully creating an opening for him to take advantage of. Unfortunately seeing no one else agreed he frowned at his plans being foiled yet again, the Hokage ignored his vote.

"Anyone in favor of Naruto Uzumaki promoted to Jounin speak up now." this time only one elder and some Jounin agreed which made the Hokage sigh in frustration, before going to the fall back option. "Since no one seems to agree with my terms, I will start with Hiashi-sans opinion. Which rank do you think Naruto should achieve?" asked the old man.

"Well Hokage-sama, with the skill and intelligence young Naruto showed to not only keep up with, but to defeat a Sannin let along the strongest one. I would say he should receive the title of a Sannin seeing as with Orochimaru's betrayal we are one ninja short of actually having any Sannin, and while I'm quite aware that it's not a title we can give since it was Hanzo-san who gave it to them, I think he'd more than agree to the boy deserving the title over a traitor, should he have still been among the living." This made majority of the people in the room go wide-eyed for multiple reasons, first being that they just realized Konoha has been without the Sannin for over a decade, and secondly while they all knew he deserved the title they never would have guessed Hiashi would have been the one to bring it up.

The Hokage and Jiraiya smiled at that both knowing it's a great choice as keeping a ninja of Naruto's potential locked up in the village only leaving for missions would only hinder his growth, and with the title of Sannin one gains special traveling rights that can only be revoked in a time of war. The Hokage then looked at everyone said, "Do all those here agree with that?"

"HAI" most of the people said without a second thought.

"Well then Congratulation Uzumaki Naruto on receiving the title of a Sannin and all the benefits that comes with it." said the Old Kage with no small amount of pride in his voice, as he gazed upon the smiling face of his young apprentice.

Naruto smiled and reigned in his excitement until the meeting could come to a close, because an outburst in front of so many important figures would be frowned upon before saying "Arigato Sarutobi-sensei."

"Well then now that it's settled the meeting is adjourned and Naruto I want to meet me at the tower tomorrow to receive your gift from me to you, as a congratulations on becoming a Sannin." said the Hokage with gently smile.

"Hai sensei" said Naruto and everyone left with that. Most couldn't wait to spread the news about Konoha finally having a complete set of Sannin.
