Ch 3- Naruto vs Kiba
"Oh Tenzo you came back" said Kakashi.
"And you brought popcorn...a lot of them actually" said Asuma.
"Nice" said Choza and took his portion. Soon everybody took their portions and was ready for battle.
"My turn, my turn, my turn" shouted Naruto as he watched his name on the screen.
"Thank you for waiting, it's finally my turn" said Naruto.
"Hell yeah, we got lucky" said Kiba.
"We can win against him for sure Akamaru" said Kiba.
"What did you say dog-breath?" asked Naruto.
"Try and prove me wrong dead last" said Kiba.
"Woof" barked Akamaru.
'Show me how much you've grown' thought Kakashi.
"I'll do it" said Naruto.
"Seventh match, Naruto uzumaki vs Kiba inuzuka" said Hayate.
"I'm tired from all that waiting...it's finally my turn to show off my moves" said Naruto.
"That's my line, drawing you as my opponent means I've already won, right Akamaru?" said Kiba.
"Woof" barked Akamaru.
A tick mark appeared on Naruto's head.
"Keep dreaming, you can't win against me" said Naruto.
"Why you..." said Kiba.
"Hey don't bring puppies in here...he's going to interfere with the match" said Naruto.
"Idiot, Akamaru's going to fight too" said Kiba.
"Woof, woof" barked Akamaru.
"Hey, hey is that okay?" asked Naruto to the proctor.
"Yes, animals and bugs are treated as weapons...it isn't a problem" said Hayate.
"Oh well, it's a good handicap" said Naruto.
"Acting tough, eh, then...Akamaru, don't do anything, I'll do this alone" said Kiba.
"You arrogant fool. An inuzuka without a ninken is worth less than a dog" said Tsume and hit Kiba with her fist.
"I'm sorry mom, but I still haven't done anything" said Kiba pleadingly.
"Enough with the monologue, why can't we begin the match" said Shikamaru.
"I feel you my son" said Shikaku.
The rest were eating popcorn.
"Naruto, don't lose to that guy" said Sakura.
"It's finally his turn" said Kakashi.
'Naruto eh, sorry to say this but he can't defeat Kiba, Kakashi' thought Kurenai.
"Was I really that bad at the academy?" asked Naruto.
"Yes" said Kurenai.
'Naruto-kun, I want to cheer you on, but I'm on Kiba-kun's team, so...' thought Hinata.
"Thanks Hinata" said Naruto but Hinata blushed like a tomato.
'Kiba-kun might get mad, but...' thought Hinata.
'Naruto-kun' thought Lee.
"Kiba…lucky" said Choji.
'I don't know how much stronger he got after becoming genin...' thought Kiba.
Flashback:
"We are going to review transformation jutsu today…you will transform yourself into Hokage"
"His original abilities were…"
Naruto transformed into a short sandaime with red lips. Iruka face faulted.
The whole class laughed. Kiba who was sleeping woke up.
'So noisy…I was having a nice nap' thought young Kiba.
"That was a joke, I did it on purpose" said young Naruto.
"Quit fooling around Naruto" said Iruka.
"This is your third year at academy" said Iruka.
"Geez who is that?" asked Kiba.
"We just changed class and we have already got a funny guy" said a boy.
"He did good job on getting everyone's attention" said a boy.
"Trying to be funny, eh" said young Kiba.
"Do it again, idiot" said Iruka.
He failed again.
"Are you doing that on…" said Iruka.
Kiba snickered.
"You all just watch…one day I'm going to be Hokage" said young Naruto.
The whole class laughed louder.
"Are you stupid? You, Hokage?" asked Kiba mocking him.
"Well I remember that happening" said Shikamaru.
Present:
"I will beat you in one hit out of pity" said Kiba.
"Oh whatever, but you can't defeat me" said Naruto.
"Stop with the monologues" said Shikaku.
"Don't worry, there will be a lot after this" said Hiruzen.
Both the Nara's groaned.
"I told you not to act tough" said Kiba.
"Woof" barked Akamaru.
"Then let's begin" said Hayate.
"Beast mimicry ninja technique: all fours jutsu" said Kiba as blue chakra surrounded him.
His nails grew and his features became more animalistic.
"Here I come" said Kiba who was in all fours.
Kiba suddenly appeared in front of Naruto taking him aback.
"That's fast" said Choji.
Kiba smirked.
He then tackled him with his elbow on his gut making Naruto fall down after flying several meters back by the impact of the attack.
"He's fast" said Sakura.
Naruto was not standing up anymore.
"That's all you got" scoffed Kiba.
"Man, I was expecting something more" said Choji.
"Fate is not something that can be changed so easily" said Neji.
The members of team 7 just smirked.
"He won't be waking up for a little while, Mr. Proctor" said Kiba smirking.
"Just as I thought" said Shikamaru.
"There's no way that Naruto can beat Kiba" said Ino.
"Naruto-kun, you look so foolish" said Lee.
"See?" asked Kurenai looking smug.
"Geez, he's weak" said Kankuro.
'Naruto-kun' thought Hinata in worry.
Sakura stared at Kakashi intently. Kakashi just eye smiled back.
'Yes…' thought Sakura.
Flashback:
"Again…" said Shikamaru.
"I'm going to become greater than the Hokage's, and then I'm going to make all the villagers recognize my existence" said Naruto.
"Those words…I've made fun of them for a long time too"
Kiba walked back.
Naruto was on the ground in front of Zabuza clone.
"This is a jonin…a real ninja, I've got to get back or he'll seriously annihilate me" said Naruto.
"Are you hurt…you scaredy cat?" asked Sasuke.
"Become stronger than me" said Sasuke.
Naruto's hand twitched in present.
"Damn it" said Naruto.
Naruto punched Sasuke in the forest of death.
"Why you…why did you do that?" asked Sasuke.
"The idiot and coward I see right now can't be the Sasuke I know" said Naruto.
Present:
Naruto slowly stood up making Kiba stop in his tracks.
"What?" asked Kiba shocked.
Team 10 looked surprised.
'But I was wrong' thought Sakura.
Flashback:
Naruto stopped Orochimaru's snake all by himself.
"We saw this" said Ino.
"Hey, are you hurt…scaredy cat?" asked Naruto.
About 30-40 number of Naruto's charged at another genin team.
"Holy shit" said Kiba.
"He created that many clones even after Orochimaru placed that seal on him?" asked Kurenai looking shocked.
"You don't know how many he can create Kurenai" said Kakashi.
"You shouldn't take pride in this match even if you win" said Shikamaru.
"Oh come on" said Kiba.
"I'm not going to take back my word, that's my way of the ninja" said Naruto.
Present:
Sakura smiled as Naruto got up to his feet.
'Naruto…tell everyone' thought Sakura.
Naruto smiled as he looked up, his lips bloodied.
"Don't…don't underestimate me" said Naruto.
"OH" shouted Lee.
'Oh? Tough boy, eh' thought Shikamaru smiling.
Hinata smiled.
'Naruto-kun' thought Hinata.
"Get him Naruto" said Sakura.
"You're bleeding, so stop pretending to be cool" said Kiba aggravated.
"Stop with the tough act" said Kiba.
"I went easy on you...just so I could see how strong you were…why don't you stop acting tough and use your dog or whatever" said Naruto.
"You're going to regret that…" growled Kiba.
"Let's go, Akamaru" said Kiba.
"Now it's starting huh" said Tenten.
"Yes now we can see what's interesting about this fight" said Shino.
Akamaru barked in agreement and both of them charged on him.
Kiba quickly threw smoke bombs on the ground in front of Naruto engulfing all three of them in smoke.
Suddenly Naruto was hit in his face, then in his gut and followed by in his back. He was getting hit continuously.
'I can't see a thing…this isn't good, I've got to get out of the smoke or I'll get beat' thought Naruto.
Kiba smirked as he ate his popcorn.
Naruto tried to run out of the smoke but just as he was out he was tackled in by Akamaru.
"He fell for it" said Kiba from inside.
"What?" asked Ino.
"Damn, I can't see anything" said Shikamaru.
Kiba then jumped out of the smoke grinning. As the smoke cleared Naruto was lying in the ground seemingly unconscious.
Akamaru barked from beside him.
"Alright, way to go" said Kiba.
Akamaru ran towards him.
"Told ya it would be easy" said Kiba.
"Come on my future self" said Naruto.
"Good job Aka…" said Kiba but stopped as Akamaru suddenly bit his arm.
"Wha…" said Kiba shocked.
"I see" said Shino.
"Is this really Naruto?" asked Choji.
All of them looked on in surprise.
"Akamaru, why?" asked Kiba shocked.
"You fell for it" said Akamaru.
Akamaru suddenly transformed into Naruto.
"Y-you transformed, ouch…damn it, let go" said Kiba and shook Naruto off.
Naruto's face was purple as he spit on the ground.
"You taste like a dog" said Naruto.
Everyone laughed.
"He is right Kiba" said Kurenai.
"But sensei…" complained Kiba.
"I will have you take a nice bath today" said Tsume.
"Where's Akamaru?" asked Kiba in worry.
"Here" said Naruto who was supposed to be unconscious holding on to Akamaru.
"Akamaru…damn it" said Kiba in surprise.
"No way, that's Naruto" asked Ino.
"I get you my future self" said Ino.
"He's on equal ground against Kiba…no he might be even better than him" said Ino.
"There's no way Naruto can do something crafty like using the shadow clone jutsu and transformation jutsu at the same time" said Shikamaru.
"He's good at using his jutsu at the right time" said Temari.
"He's better than I thought" said Kankuro.
'He sure is interesting; he bit the guy on his own and then got mad' thought Neji,
"That was amazing Naruto-kun" said Hinata meekly.
"That was amazing Naruto" shouted Sakura.
"Looks like you have gotten a little stronger…but it's over" said Kiba.
"Really, but you can never defeat me" said Naruto.
'He's grown even more during the exam' thought Kakashi.
"This is a surprise" said Sandaime watching from the sidelines.
'Is that the Naruto that was an all-time failure' thought Kurenai.
"I'm awesome dattebayo" said Naruto.
"Dobe, why are you getting excited over something like this?" asked Sasuke.
"It looks like he is no longer the Naruto we knew" said Shikamaru.
Ino nodded.
'What did Kakashi do?' thought Asuma.
'But…the growth of our Kiba and Akamaru might be greater than his' thought Kurenai.
"Naruto…you will give me back my Akamaru" said Kiba and tossed Akamaru a food pill.
Suddenly Akamaru grew larger and his fur grew redder.
"What did you gave him?" asked Shikamaru.
"Food pills" said Choji.
"It's over for Naruto" said Kurenai.
"Huh" said Naruto confused.
Akamaru howled and freed himself from Naruto dispelling the clone.
"What the…what did you give him?" asked Naruto.
"That's doping dattebayo" said Naruto.
"His fur became red" said Naruto.
"That's why his name is Akamaru" said Kiba and ate a food pill as well.
'Food pills' thought Kakashi.
'Kiba's planning to end this now' thought Kurenai smiling.
"Let's go Akamaru" said Kiba and crouched down, Akamaru sat on his back.
"Beast mimicry ninja technique: half beast clone" said Kiba and Akamaru suddenly transformed into Kiba.
Kiba growled at Naruto like an animal.
"His eyes look dangerous…he used some weird drug, isn't this considered doping" said Naruto shuddering.
"Is this allowed?" asked Naruto.
"Yes, food pills are considered a tool (cough)" said Hayate.
"You always say that…" said Naruto complaining.
"Why are you complaining to the proctor?" asked Tenten.
"What the…what did he eat?" asked Shikamaru.
"A food pill" said Choji.
"Food pill?" asked Ino.
"It's a special medicine that allows a soldier who uses it to fight three days and three nights straight…it's high in protein and is quickly absorbed in the body. It also has substances that act as a stimulus and tranquilizer" said Choji.
"Why do you know so much about this?" asked Shikamaru.
"Well my clan is the one who developed it" said Choji.
"This is bad for your student Kakashi" said Gai.
"Kiba and Akamaru's chakra have most likely doubled temporarily" said Choji.
"Now this match will end" said Kiba.
"Let's go…four legged jutsu" said Kiba and both of them pounced at Naruto who jumped back. Just as they hit the floor debris flew and dust covered the wild mutts.
One of them jumped at swiped at Naruto who sidestepped, but Kiba climbed up the wall and jumped at Naruto in all fours who barely managed to get back.
"That's crazy fast, all most as fast as Lee" said Tenten.
"Yup, I've gotten a lot stronger it looks like, so what now?" asked Kiba grinning.
"Naruto" shouted Sakura and Hinata joined her hands in worry.
"Naruto's in a bad situation, Kiba has chakra surrounding his body and he is a total combatant type fighter that brawls like a beast…the food pill which doubles his chakra is perfect for him" said Asuma.
"Shoot" said Naruto as barely ducked and weaved to dodge Kiba's swipes.
'This guy doesn't need a handicap' thought Naruto as another Kiba pounced at him. Naruto barely dodged it.
'Even if I gather all my chakra to my legs, I can only run away at most' thought Naruto.
'At this rate' thought Naruto and jumped away. But both of them charged at him.
Naruto jumped up to dodge another slash from Kiba.
"I see a vulnerable spot" said Kiba and both of them charged at him.
"I mastered it" said Kiba in surprise.
"What?" asked Ino.
"You will see" said Kiba grinning smugly.
"Take this, half-beast master combat move: fang over fang" said Kiba and both of them started spinning like a drill and jumped at Naruto.
Just as Naruto landed they hit him from both sides. Naruto shouted in pain as he went flying back.
Naruto landed painfully and blood was coming from his head.
"Not bad kid" said Tsume.
"Damn" said Shikamaru.
"Well, you have gotten stronger but you can't match Kiba-sama" said Kiba proudly to Naruto.
Stolen story; please report.
"My chakra control is still not in peak condition" said Naruto.
"But why can't you feel it…you must be able to understand your chakra control has dropped before you've began fighting the inuzuka" said Hiashi.
"That's a good question, dobe why didn't you ask Kakashi-sensei about the seal?" asked Sasuke.
"Don't ask me, ask future me" said Naruto.
Everyone sweat dropped.
"Well Naruto's not the best in chakra control" said Kakashi.
"That's our difference in skill" said Kiba.
"I'm…going to become Hokage…I can't lose here" said Naruto still lying flat on his face.
"You Hokage, when you're weaker than me? I'll become Hokage for you" asked Kiba.
"That's uncalled for" said Shino.
"You shouldn't mock someone's dream like this" said Kurenai.
"But…I do want to become Hokage" whined Kiba.
Silence ensued around the room.
"What, just because I don't shout it out like the dobe here doesn't mean that I don't have my ambitions" said Kiba.
Kiba laughed.
Naruto remembered the whole class laughing at him like Kiba and clutched his fist.
"You know inside that you can't become Hokage, so stop acting tough" said Kiba laughing.
"You're wrong Kiba-kun…" said Hinata meekly.
Flashback:
"Naruto-kun's not that weak"
Young Naruto was standing in a dark place alone. The people beside him ignored him, acted as if he didn't exist.
Naruto gave everyone a look which stated a single thing. Don't-comment-or-I-will-release-the-kyubi-on-you got it.
"I'm going to receive the title of the Hokage…you all just watch" said Naruto. Everyone looked at him as if he was crazy, the holder of the kyubi as the Hokage, impossible.
Young Naruto then ran away from the stares.
"Naruto-kun is different from me in that he believes in his own worth"
Naruto ran even as he became a shinobi. Alone, he was always alone.
"I really think he's amazing, it's a very hard thing to do"
Hinata watched as Naruto practiced his kunai and shuriken skills until he dropped exhausted. He again stood up to practice again.
"I understand, but still no one tried to…look at the true Naruto-kun"
Naruto was sitting in a hanging chair looking very lonely, very depressed and alone…
The rookies seemed surprised by this; nobody ever thought that they would see Naruto look like that.
Even Sakura and Sasuke looked surprised.
"Hey that kid is the kid. He was the only one who failed"
"Serves him right"
"If he becomes a ninja…it's only going to cause trouble, because he's really a…"
"Hey, it's forbidden to say more than that"
"How can they say something like that?" asked Sakura in a low monotone.
"Hokage-sama" said Naruto with a steel cold voice.
Now everyone was surprised, Naruto never called Sandaime with respect.
"Yes Naruto-kun" said Hiruzen sighing.
"This is an invasion of privacy. Please stop this" said Naruto looking at Hiruzen with very cold eyes.
Kakashi placed a hand on Naruto's shoulder.
"Naruto, none of us here thinks of you as the fox" said Kakashi.
"But…" protested Naruto.
"You know that to change the future we have to see this. Besides, I have seen something…I wished to talk about as well, about you trying to commit suicide and failing" said Hiruzen.
"WHAT?" shouted Kakashi.
All of the rookies looked dumbfounded and even adults gave him some crazy looks.
Naruto stiffened.
"Naruto…what does that mean?" asked Sakura.
"N-Naruto-kun" said Hinata openly crying.
"That's unyouthful" said Lee.
"Did you really try to…" said Shikamaru.
Naruto didn't reply.
"Hey, dobe" said Sasuke looking worried for some rare moments.
"Not now, we have to finish the fight first" said Hiruzen.
Nobody was in the mood of popcorn, not even the Akimichi father and son duo.
"No one tried to recognize the real Naruto-kun"
"But now…everyone is watching"
Present:
Naruto was slowly standing up.
"Stand up Naruto" shouted Sakura.
Hiruzen smiled.
'Everyone's recognizing him' thought Hinata smiling.
"If you compete with me over the title of Hokage…you're going to become the underdog" said Naruto smirking.
"Nice determination" said Jiraiya.
"Alright I am not the most patient guy here…look buddy I don't care if you have a freaking fox sealed inside you. You are still Naruto and our friend. I don't give a damn about what happened in the past but at the very least you don't have to kill yourself" said Kiba.
"Yes you shouldn't perform such unyouthful acts" said Lee.
Naruto suddenly slapped himself and took a deep breath to come himself down.
"Sorry guys, I'm not suicidal now…jiji how did you come to know what I tried in the past" said Naruto surprised.
"In a fight against a Suna genin I saw you remembering that" said Hiruzen.
"But why should I…I mean I myself had forgotten about all that dattebayo" said Naruto.
'You forgot about trying to…kill yourself' thought many of them.
"Whatever, if it's important then we will come to see it anyway" said Sasuke.
Kiba smirked.
"Geez, you are a persistent guy" said Kiba.
Naruto just smiled.
"Fine, then I'll make sure you can never stand up…let's go Akamaru" said Kiba and charged at Naruto.
"The same thing won't work me more than once" said Naruto.
"You've got a way to defeat fang over fang?" asked Tsume.
"I can't say" said Naruto.
"Take this" said Kiba and both of them started rotating.
Naruto jumped up just as they attacked him. Just as they were about to strike him he maneuvered in air a little to make sure they didn't hit the vitals.
It only grazed him as Naruto fell back down on the ground.
"Not bad, you have already formed a counter for this" said Inoichi.
Naruto got up again.
"Damn it" said Naruto.
The duo again charged at him and this time they dropped some smoke bombs to the ground blinding Naruto.
Then they used their fang over fang to attack Naruto continuously in the smoke. Naruto tied to dodge and managed to dodge some of them but he was hit by most of them and landed in the ground painfully.
"How are you hitting me with that much precision in the smoke" said Naruto.
"Heh, it's a secret" said Kiba.
"I saw this move a while ago…I can't keep getting hit" said Naruto.
"I'm honestly surprised that you're still standing" said Asuma.
"Yes, your flames of youth burn brightly Naruto-kun" said Gai.
"Uh…thanks" said Naruto.
"What should I do…" said Naruto.
Finally it ended, and Naruto's face was a mess.
"Heh, you seem to be losing your confidence" said Kiba.
"I'm as confident as ever…I can still manage even if your numbers increase by three to four times" said Naruto.
"You just don't shut up do you? Let's end it with the next move…Akamaru" said Kiba.
Both of them charged at Naruto and again threw smoke bombs at him and repeated the same move.
"You sure can take a punishment kid" said Tenten.
"I would've given up way before, it's so troublesome" said Shikamaru eating his popcorn.
"Damn it…I need to counterattack somehow" said Naruto.
"I need to attack Kiba…but I don't know which is which" said Naruto as he was barely evading the drills in the smoke.
"What are you going to do Naruto?" asked Sakura in worry.
'Naruto-kun' thought Hinata in worry.
"You should cheer me too a bit Hinata" said Kiba dejected.
"Don't worry I am cheering you on nazenara I'm your teammate…although you will probably lose" said Shino.
"Huh, what makes you think I will lose when I'm the one who is controlling the battle" said Kiba.
'I got it' thought Naruto and got an idea.
"Transform" shouted Naruto.
"Gotcha" said Kiba as he went for a final strike, but he suddenly stopped his assault.
"I see" said Kakashi.
Sakura looked at him.
"Look closer" said Kakashi.
There were 3 Kiba in the battlefield.
"I must admit…you know how to use your jutsu very well" said Shino in approval.
"Guess all those pranking came handy…you fooled Zabuza using a transformation too" said Sakura.
"You what?" asked Asuma suddenly interested.
"Later Asuma…now look at the fight" said Hiruzen eating popcorn too.
"Good idea, nice plan Naruto" said Sakura.
"Naruto-kun" said Hinata in relief.
"If he transforms into Kiba, the real Kiba won't know which one is Akamaru and which one is Naruto…he won't be able to attack" said Sakura.
"But Naruto-kun attack both of them" said Lee excited at Naruto's brilliant plan.
"He created an opening…very good" said Sakura.
"I see…you've resorted to this, but…let me warn you…I underestimated you before and it took me a while to notice but your transformation won't work on me anymore" said Kiba.
"Why?" asked Kiba and punched the Kiba in front of him.
"I can smell it…don't underestimate our sense of smell, Naruto" said Kiba.
'By concentrating his chakra to his nose, Kiba is able to amplify his sense of smell by a factor of over a thousand, and he can identify people by their smells by doing so' thought Kurenai.
"You've trained him well" said Kakashi.
"He will become a very good tracker in the future" said Asuma.
"Not bad" said Shikaku.
"Damn it…I thought it was a good plan too" said Naruto.
"It was a good plan…I can use it to create an opening for Choji and me" said Shikamaru thoughtfully.
"We won" said Kiba.
Suddenly Kiba transformed into Akamaru.
'What happened? Kiba's nose confused Naruto and Akamaru' thought Shino in surprise.
'Damn it, what's going on?' thought Kiba in confusion.
"That's what I want to know…what you did?" asked Kiba to Naruto.
Naruto grinned.
"Forget being good, you are extremely talented to be able to use a simple jutsu like this" said Shino.
"I see…damn never expected this from you" said Shikamaru.
"So you are Naruto, messing with me" said Kiba and punched the other Kiba standing beside him.
Kiba went rolling back and he too transformed back into Akamaru.
"What?" asked Kiba shocked.
"Not bad dobe" said Sasuke.
'Kiba was fooled' thought Tsume.
"Damn, Kakashi what did you do to him?" asked Asuma.
"What happened?" asked Kiba.
'This idea isn't surprising coming from a former prankster' thought Kakashi.
'He got him…' thought Kurenai in cold sweat.
Suddenly the Akamaru who was hit first transformed back into Naruto and just as Kiba turned around he was jump kicked in his chest sending him tumbling back.
"He did it" said Naruto.
"Naruto-kun, you're amazing" said Hinata.
Kiba looked guiltily at his partner who he had punched into unconsciousness in confusion.
"I see, so Naruto transformed into Kiba, was detected by his scent and was hit by the real Kiba. But Naruto transformed into Akamaru right away instead of returning to his original form" said Sakura.
"That's pretty amazing" said Ino.
"He got you kid" said Shikaku to Kiba.
"Damn you little…" said Kiba.
The sandaime laughed.
"He did it so that it would look like Akamaru got hit and that Akamaru's half-beast transformation was dispelled" said Sakura.
"Was Naruto this smart?" asked Ino shocked.
"Damn it…" said Kiba.
"Use your techniques carefully, after giving a thought to what you're doing or it will be used to the other person's advantage, stupid" said Naruto.
"That's my line, word for word" said Kakashi.
"You stole my line" said Kakashi.
"Well it served the purpose of agitating him" said Naruto shrugging.
'It's a waste of time talking to him' thought Kiba.
'I can't let him sucker me in his pace' thought Kiba and bit his arm to calm himself down.
"Finally using your brains huh" said Shino.
'He wasn't able to keep up with my movements, it means that I still have the advantage' thought Kiba and drew some shuriken.
'If I observe Naruto closely and attack when he is vulnerable, I can definitely attack from behind using my four legged technique…there's no need to underestimate the match, this is a match I can win if I go calmly' thought Kiba.
"When he is not in his peak in chakra control" said Sakura reminding him of that fact.
'Looks like the enemy has calmed down, now what Naruto' thought Kakashi.
"So you're finally serious Kiba, then I'll finish it with a new move I've been saving up" said Naruto.
"What?" asked Kiba.
"You have something like that up your sleeve?" asked Sakura.
"New move" said Kiba.
"When did he make a new move?" asked Sakura.
"He's still had a new move hidden up his sleeve, he's good" said Lee.
"New move my ass, you're just bluffing" said Kiba.
"We'll see if it is a bluff or not" said Naruto.
'Damn it…the situation hasn't changed…don't let him sucker you into his pace, calm down' thought Kiba.
"Let's go" said Naruto and formed his hand seal to build up chakra.
"I don't know what your new move his…but all I've do is to stop you from executing it" said Kiba and charged at Naruto.
He threw the shurikens at Naruto.
"What?" asked Naruto and barely managed to dodge them.
'Now' thought Kiba and charged at Naruto.
'He's fast' thought Naruto looking at Kiba coming at him like an animal.
Kiba quickly shoulder tackled him. Naruto slid back a few steps back before stopping.
"Don't stop" said Kiba suddenly appearing beside Naruto and punched him.
"Naruto" shouted Sakura in worry.
"Naruto-kun" shouted Hinata.
Naruto was lying in the arena on his face.
Team 10 looked surprised by the speed displayed by Kiba.
"Let's go" shouted Kiba.
"You're pretty good" said Tenten.
"I guess that's all he could do with his abilities" said Kankuro.
"Stand up, Naruto" shouted Sakura.
"Damn it…I don't have the time mold chakra like this" said Naruto as he slowly stood up.
Kiba again charged at Naruto.
"Come on, what's the matter, Naruto?" asked Kiba and started dancing around him. Then he went towards him and slashed at him making him fall back again.
"He's fast" said Choji.
"Impossible, Naruto doesn't have time to form hand seals" said Ino.
"There's a big difference in power, I guess it was impossible for Naruto to win" said Shikamaru.
"Damn it" said Naruto as he slowly tried to sit back up.
"Take this" said Kiba as he came from above and swiped at Naruto. Naruto blocked it with his hand but his hand was cut deeply.
"What?" asked Kiba as Naruto caught his hand and threw him around.
"Take that" said Naruto.
Naruto's entire arm was bleeding. It was obvious from the way blood was dropping down the ground.
"Damn you're gutsy kid" said Jiraiya.
"That's all he has anyway" said Sasuke smirking a little.
"I'm going to be Hokage…I can't lose here" said Naruto started gathering chakra.
"Save the dream for later, you can't even keep up with my speed" said Kiba.
Naruto was again attacked by Kiba and this time he got his right arm, Naruto quickly ran away and took his position again.
"Come on, come on, come on, come on" said Kiba and charged at him.
Kiba again attacked him making him go sliding back.
"Naruto" shouted Sakura.
"This is what happens when I get serious…now you know right, to me you're just a…" started Kiba but Naruto was standing back again.
His whole body was shaking but he still stood back up.
"There is one thing I can say about him, despite being a dobe this guy is most stubborn person I've ever seen" said Sasuke.
"I…won't lose" said Naruto grinning confidently.
"Naruto is trying hard" said Choji.
"Yeah…" said Ino.
"If I was Kiba, I would've had enough" said Shikamaru.
"I don't care who wins, just settle the match" said Kankuro.
"Naruto-kun, do your best" said Hinata meekly.
"Naruto, us your new special move or whatever, but finish it" said Sakura.
"Naruto-kun, try hard" said Lee.
'Damn it, I need to find Kiba's weak spot' thought Naruto.
"There's none" said Kiba arrogantly.
"That didn't have any effect" said Naruto.
"I'll compliment you on your spirit" said Kiba.
'He's already finished, I'll end it with the next move' thought Kiba.
'The climax is here' thought Shikaku.
"I'll rip out my new move anytime now" said Naruto.
Naruto started concentrating chakra and Kiba charged at him.
"Take this" said Kiba and slid behind him.
FART.
"Ah" said Naruto.
Silence ensued.
"GWAHHHHHHH" started laughing everybody.
"No…no way" said Kiba broken.
"Oh my god" said Choji.
"That was amazing" said Ino.
"To think you would lose because of a mistimed fart" said Shikamaru.
"Poor Kiba-kun" said Hinata.
Everyone starting from Tenzo to Sandaime was laughing. Neji and Hiashi snickered a few times.
"There's no excuse now Kiba, you not only will lose to an opponent whose ability to mold chakra is sealed, you will lose because of a fart. You lost your face" said Shino.
Naruto looked sheepish.
Kiba smelled it.
Kiba shouted in agony and clutched his nose taking a few steps back. Everyone looked disgusted. Hinata blushed.
'Fast movement and a keen nose…the beast mimicry technique turned against him' thought Kakashi.
'Kiba's sense of smell is amplified by a few thousand times right now' thought Kurenai.
'That fart must have been a coincidence, but he is the number one ninja in surprising people' thought Kakashi.
"Naruto, now's your chance" said Sakura.
"Damn it, I strained too much" said Naruto.
"But this is the good part of my new move" said Naruto forming hand seals.
"Shadow clone jutsu" said Naruto and 4 clones appeared beside him.
"Alright, I'll get you for what you did to me with this move" said Naruto and the clones surrounded him.
Kiba was still recovering.
"Damn it" said Kiba.
One of the Naruto charged and punched him in the air.
"U…"shouted the Naruto who punched him. The real Naruto used the clone to propel himself upwards.
Three Naruto then kicked him from below sending him upwards.
"Zu…Ma…Ki" said the clones.
The real Naruto then kicked him in his face sending him back crashing to the ground.
"Naruto barrage" said Naruto.
All of the genins looked surprised.
"He…he actually did it" said Ino surprised.
"Nicely done Naruto" said Sakura.
"I lost to a fart" said Kiba depressed.
Kiba was down for the count and seeing this, the proctor decided the match.
"Winner, Naruto uzumaki" said Hayate.
Lee shouted in approval.
"Shannaro, all right, good" said Sakura.
"That Naruto beat Kiba" said Shikamaru.
"No one expected that" said Choji.
Ino nodded.
"Yes" said Hinata.
Kakashi eye smiled.
'I've…become stronger" said Naruto.
"Easy, easy" said Naruto as he walked up.
"N-Naruto-kun" said Hinata very meekly.
"Ah" said Naruto.
"Hinata, did you say something?" asked Naruto.
"U-um…" said Hinata playing with her fingers.
'Is it coming…the confession?'
Everyone except Naruto looked at the screen intently, even Hiashi.
Hinata gulped and then took a step forward.
Then she extended her hand to give the healing salve to him.
"What's this?" asked Naruto.
"An ointment" said Kurenai.
"Why me?" asked Naruto.
"Why me?" asked Naruto as Hinata fell unconscious.
'How dense can you be?'
"Just take it, Naruto" said Hinata.
"Okay, thanks. You're a good person Hinata" said Naruto.
Before Naruto could thank the present time Hinata, he noted that she was sleeping for some reason.
'Kiba…there's no need to be ashamed…he was a strong opponent' thought Kurenai.
"Thanks…but I lost to a fart" said Kiba dropping anime tears.
"Woof" barked Akamaru.
"Don't make fun of me Akamaru" said Kiba.
"What's next then" asked Tsume.
Event: Naruto and Shikamaru meet Gaara.
"Is that supposed to be special?" asked Naruto.
"It will only show it if it was something important" said Shikamaru.
"Let's see then" said Shikaku.
Sound of shogi pieces being moved were heard in the Konoha hospital room.
"Definitely you Shikamaru" said Ino.
"Why are you in the hospital?" asked Choji.
"Who knows?" asked Shikamaru.
Shikamaru looked at Naruto who was sleeping in a bed.
"This guy sleeps a lot" said Shikamaru.
"Wait so you are visiting me, and why am I in the hospital dattebayo" said Naruto confused.
"Maybe he's dead" said Shikamaru.
Shikamaru sighed.
Sakura was picking a flower in the yamanaka flower shop.
"Sasuke-kun hasn't come back yet"
Sakura seemed shocked and looked back.
"Ino…" said Sakura.
"I get information about you faster than you…you failed to get ahead of me forehead girl" said Ino.
"No that's not it…these are for Lee-san" said Sakura.
"For me…" said Lee seemed surprised.
Ino's face fell.
"Did something happen to me?" asked Lee.
"You fought Gaara of the desert in the preliminaries and as a result you lost your ability to be a ninja" said Hiruzen.
"What?" asked Lee suddenly downcast.
"But how can Lee?" asked Gai.
"He is a fearsome opponent who couldn't be touched even with the eight gates" said Hiruzen grimly.
"Wait…this boy can open the gates?" asked Asuma surprised.
"What are they?" asked Shikamaru.
"5 of them in fact" said Hiruzen proudly.
"And yet he lost" said Kurenai with widened eyes.
"My career as shinobi huh…" said Lee.
Everybody felt sympathy for the boy.
'This is what happens if you defy fate Lee' thought Neji sadly.
"Don't worry, you are able to be ninja again…thanks to a certain someone" said Hiruzen glancing at Naruto which wasn't missed by any adults and Shikamaru as well as Shino.
"Who is this youthful fellow Hokage-sama?" asked Lee cheerfully.
"I shouldn't spoil you should I?" asked Hiruzen smiling.
"The last one is about to wither" said Sakura.
A shadow was entering Lee's room.
'What?' thought Lee.
"Huh what is this…it's completely stuck…how troublesome" said Shikamaru seeing the watch glass.
Naruto's eyes slowly opened.
"Hey, finally awake?" asked Shikamaru.
"Where am I?" asked Naruto.
"The hospital…I heard you were asleep for three days straight" said Shikamaru.
"Three days…THREE DAYS" said Naruto and quickly awoke up and stood on the bed.
"W-what?" asked Shikamaru shocked.
"Shikamaru…when are the final matches?" asked Naruto.
"T-tomorrow" said Shikamaru.
"What? Why didn't you wake me up earlier, I don't have time to just sleep here" said Naruto grabbing Shikamaru's collar.
"Noisy as always" said Sakura sighing.
"Where is the pervy-sage? Where is he dattebayo" asked Naruto.
Jiraiya snorted at the name.
"Nice nickname" said Jiraiya.
Hiruzen had to work hard to suppress his laugh; his student will flip if he hears that this is indeed his nickname.
"I need him to supervise my training" said Naruto.
"Huh, what are you talking about? I have no idea what are you talking about" asked Shikamaru.
"My clothes are gone, where? Where? Where?" asked Naruto searching for them.
"Geez he's sleeping one minute and causing a ruckus the next minute…calm down for a little" said Shikamaru.
"Welcome to our world" said Team 7 except for Naruto.
"There's no point in panicking before the day, resting is also a part of training" said Shikamaru.
Naruto stopped and started shaking.
"Hey Naruto, what's wrong?" asked Shikamaru.
Naruto's stomach rumbled as he cried anime tears.
"I'm hungry" said Naruto.
"Come on…don't scare me like that" said Shikamaru.
"Here…it's troublesome but I brought these fruits for Choji" said Shikamaru and gave a fruit basket to Naruto.
"Me" said Choji surprised.
"Doctor said he can't eat them so let's eat them together" said Shikamaru.
"Choji…he's hurt that bad" said Naruto.
"Don't get the wrong idea, he ate too much barbeque so his stomach is not feeling well" said Shikamaru.
"Oh…thank god" said Choji.
"Typical Choji" said Ino.
Choza laughed.
"Heh sounds like Choji alright" said Naruto laughing.
"Well girls don't visit guys like you" said Shikamaru tossing him an apple.
"Looks good" said Naruto but suddenly stopped and grinned.
"Let's eat them in front of Choji" said Naruto.
"Naruto you bastard" shouted Choji and pounced on Naruto.
"Ah I'm sorry, dattebayo" said Naruto.
In Lee's room Lee was sleeping and Sakura was beside him. She kept the flowers in a vase and went away.
Then a shadow entered his room.
"Okay, this is creepy" said Tenten.
Gaara of the sand was beside Lee's prone body.
Gaara clutched his in pain as he remembered the boy's sensei saving him from his death.
'What?' thought everyone.
Gaara summoned sand from his gourd and they made their way towards Lee's body.
"Where the hell am I?" asked Gai.
"Damn it" said Neji. He didn't like the boy but that did not mean he wanted him dead.
They made their way towards Lee's neck. But suddenly he found himself unable to move.
"My body…won't move" said Gaara.
"Hey you" said Naruto and punched the boy.
"What the hell are you doing here?" asked Naruto.
"Hey Naruto" said Shikamaru.
"When I'm using my shadow imitation jutsu I move along with him…got it?" asked Shikamaru.
"Thank you" said Lee bowing to Naruto and Shikamaru.
"Yes my youthful comrades thank you for saving my passionate student, I shall thank this youthfulness from the bottom of my heart" said Gai bowing too.
"Don't worry about it" said Naruto.
"Troublesome" said Shikamaru and sighed.
"Sorry Shikamaru" said Naruto sheepishly.
Gaara's face cracked and sand fell on the floor.
"What the hell is this?" asked Sasuke.
"What are you trying to do?" asked Naruto as he and Shikamaru glared at him.
"Hey what are you trying to do to Fuzzy brows?" asked Naruto clutching his fist.
"Why did you name me that Naruto-kun" said Lee in confusion.
"Duh" said everyone looking at his eyebrows…thick eyebrows.
"I tried to kill him" said Gaara as a matter of fact.
"What?" asked Naruto and Shikamaru.
"Is he a psychopath?" asked Tenten in disgust.
'How can he remain so calm?' thought Shikamaru.
'He shouldn't be able to move because of my shadow imitation jutsu' thought Shikamaru.
"Why did you need to do that? You won the match…do you have some sort of personal grudge against him" asked Shikamaru.
"No" said Gaara.
"I'm going to kill him because I want him dead" said Gaara.
"That's the most selfish thing I've ever heard" said Naruto.
"What the hell is wrong with this guy?" asked Kiba.
"Yes, who the hell just kills because they want it…" said Ino.
"You grew up in a bad environment, didn't you? You're really egocentric" asked Shikamaru.
'Actually this is weird…I'm getting chills, if he does something Naruto and me can't handle him' thought Shikamaru.
'Geez what should I do?' thought Shikamaru.
"If you bother me, then I will kill you, too" said Gaara.
"Is he really a serial killer or something?" asked Kiba.
"S-so evil" said Hinata who had woken up by now.
"What? Just try it then" said Naruto readying his fist.
"Hey, cut it out Naruto" said Shikamaru.
'I guess I will bluff to see how he acts' thought Shikamaru.
"Not bad…you have got the situational awareness unlike the idiot there" said Jiraiya.
"Who did you call an idiot, old man?" asked Naruto in retort.
"Stop it Naruto" said Kakashi.
"We know you're strong, since we saw your match with him but this guy and me are pretty strong too" said Shikamaru.
"We didn't show our strongest moves in the preliminaries, and its two vs one. You're at a disadvantage" said Shikamaru.
"If you listen to us, we will let you go" said Shikamaru.
"I will say it once again, if you bother me, I will kill you" said Gaara.
Shikamaru frowned.
'This guy…' thought Shikamaru.
"You can't kill me" said Naruto.
"I've been telling you to stop doing that, he's strong as a monster, you know that" said Shikamaru.
"Yeah keep telling him that, he's the kind of guy who doesn't fear a sanin for god's sake" said Sakura.
"He's fearless and stubborn" said Kiba.
"I've a real monster inside me, I won't lose to him" said Naruto smirking.
"That's a secret you know" said Kakashi.
"Not for me" said Naruto.
"Don't piss him off, idiot" said Shikamaru.
Naruto growled angrily.
"A monster eh…then I'm the same" said Gaara.
Shikamaru looked surprised.
All the adult's eyes widened in hearing this, some of them gasped.
'Suna's jinchuuriki' thought Shikaku.
"As you said, I did not grow up in a nice environment…I took the life of a woman who was called my mother when I was born" said Gaara.
"To become the ultimate shinobi my father used a ninja technique to bind an incarnate of sand to me" said Gaara.
"I was a monster at birth" said Gaara.
"The hell is he spouting" said Kiba.
"Like hell our Naruto is like him" said Sakura.
"Ya, he is just psychopath" said Choji.
'Incarnate of sand' thought Shikamaru in fear.
"It is called Shukaku and it was sealed in a teakettle" said Gaara.
"A monster in a teakettle" said Hinata.
"What the hell is he talking about? Is he insane" said Tenten.
"It is a living soul of an elder priest from the hidden village of sand" said Gaara.
Shikamaru found his voice first.
"Must be one of the binding techniques to bind a soul before birth" said Shikamaru.
"To think that you guys would resort to such a thing…you guys are crazy" said Shikamaru.
"What are you talking about Shika?" asked Ino.
"Just shut up and watch" said Shika finally connecting the pieces together.
"Huh…" protested Ino.
"Ino pipe down" said Asuma looking grave.
Slowly Naruto too understood what Shikamaru meant except Shikamaru didn't know anything about how crazy the hidden village in was.
Naruto knew because Naruto is a result of their insanity.
'He has…something inside of him too' said Naruto suddenly looking scared. His face was slowly becoming pale.
"That's not what a parent should do, what a twisted way to show love" said Shikamaru.
"Love, don't measure me by your values" said Gaara.
Naruto grew more scared as time passed.
"Oya Naruto, why are you getting scares, you beat Kiba-sama…" said Kiba and looked at Naruto only to find that he had the same look as the future Naruto.
"Hey are you alright pal" said Kiba.
Soon everyone took notice of how pale Naruto looked.
"Hey are you alright?" asked Sakura in concern.
"Naruto-kun" said Lee.
"What happened dude?" asked Choji.
"Pipe down guys, don't make it troublesome for him" said Shikamaru.
"But Shika…" said Ino.
'N-Naruto-kun' thought Hinata in concern.
"Guys that's enough, we still have to look at the story" said Kakashi.
"Family…let me tell you what kind of link I have with them…they are just lumps of meat linked by hatred and murderous intent" said Gaara.
"Huh" said both of them.
"I stole my mother's life and was created to become the village's masterpiece and as Kazekage's son my father taught me secrets of ninja arts, I grew up being overprotected, spoiled and left alone" said Gaara.
"I thought that was love until that incident happened" said Gaara.
"That incident?" asked Shikamaru.
"What happened?" asked Naruto.
Gaara looked up and grinned maliciously.
"These past six years, from when I was six my own father tried to assassinate me numerous times" said Gaara.
"But you said that he spoiled you, what do you mean?" said Shikamaru.
"A being that is too strong eventually becomes an embodiment of fear. Since I was born from the usage of a jutsu my mind was unstable. The idiots in my village finally noticed that my emotions were unpredictable" said Gaara.
"To the Kazekage, my father I was the village's trump card but at the same time I was a threat. After I turned six, it seems that they classified me as a dangerous being" said Gaara.
"I was the village's dangerous tool, but still handled with care" said Gaara.
Neji, Shino and Sasuke had connected the dots by now and looked at Naruto.
"I'm a relic of past they want to get rid of, so why do I exist and live? I asked myself that question but I could not find an answer. But I needed those reasons while I'm still alive or it would be the same as me being dead" said Gaara.
"What is he talking about?" asked Shikamaru.
But Naruto understood what he was talking about; after all he too wanted to go down that path once.
Except for Kiba slowly everyone began to get the hint.
'I…understand…he's the same as me' thought Naruto.
"How?" asked Kiba.
But everyone else looked grave.
"And this is what I concluded…I exist to kill everyone other than me" said Gaara.
"What the hell?" asked Kiba.
"I finally found relief inside the fear of being assassinated at any time, by killing the assassins, I was able to realize my reasons to live" said Gaara.
"I fight for myself…and only love myself, as long as I think that other people exist to make me feel that, the world is wonderful, as long as there are people to kill in this world…to make me experience the joy of living…my existence will remain" said Gaara.
Shikamaru shook in fear.
'What is up with him? He's really out of it' thought Shikamaru.
'I was alone too…' thought Naruto.
"I'm again telling you that this is a fucking invasion of privacy" shouted Naruto standing up. But he was sweating bullets; he looked like a half dead fish trying to resist his fish. He was panting hard.
"Sit down Naruto" said Kakashi warmly caressing his head.
"Did I miss something?" asked Kiba quietly to Shino.
Shino whispered something to Kiba which made Kiba widen his eyes.
'I didn't know the reason to my existence and suffered, but…Iruka-sensei acknowledged my existence so I was finally able to feel like I was alive' thought Naruto.
'But he…he has been alone, and felt alive by killing others' thought Naruto.
Naruto tightened his fist and his body shook, he was sweating profusely, and he looked about to fall down on any second.
'Such a guy exists' thought Naruto and stared at Gaara's eyes.
'The worlds we live in are completely different' thought Naruto.
'There's no way I can beat a guy like him' thought Naruto.
'That dobe is acknowledging defeat' thought Sasuke.
Naruto stopped back shaking.
"What's wrong Naruto?" asked Shikamaru.
Suddenly sand burst around Gaara, it floated around him and slowly rose in pillars.
'What? I should have immobilized him with my jutsu' thought Shikamaru.
The sand suddenly launched itself at them.
"Naruto…Naruto hey wake up" said Shikamaru as he watched Naruto looking at the sand in fear.
"Stop right there" said Gai.
Everyone released a breath they were holding.
"Thanks Gai" said Asuma.
"I owe you one…in the future" said Kakashi.
"The matches are tomorrow, or do you want to get hospitalized today?" asked Gai.
Suddenly Gaara clutched his head in pain.
'Don't leave me alone…'
'It doesn't bleed, but it hurts here'
'What…am I'
Gaara slowly walked away but at the doorstep he said,
"I will kill you guys for sure…you just wait" said Gaara.
"It ended" said Kurenai.
Naruto collapsed on the floor.
In an instant Kakashi was there to catch him.
"You alright?" asked Kakashi.
"What happened?" asked Sakura.
"Hey dobe" said Sasuke.
"Should we take a break Naruto-kun" said the Hokage.
Naruto nodded.
Then the cube showed something.
Bonus story unlocked: Boruto arc II
Sweat story unlocked: Naruto meets Jiraiya.
"What are these?" asked Hiashi.
"I don't know" said the sandaime.
"Then what should we do?" asked Tenzo.
"Well, after 15 minutes we will see this 'Boruto'. I have seen the Jiraiya part in story mode already so we can save that for later" said Hiruzen.
"Wait, isn't Boruto the one who sent you this device?" asked Shikaku.
"Yes, that is why I'm curious" said Hiruzen.
…
"Have you calmed down Naruto-kun?" asked the Sandaime.
"Sorry for delaying you jiji" said Naruto grinning.
"It's not a problem, let's see this Boruto then shall we?" asked Hiruzen.
"Okay" said Naruto.
