Kakashi sat at the monument. He fingered the names of his former sensei. It was the fourth celebration of The Yondaime's defeat of the 9 tailed fox but also the day of mourning his death. Kakashi turned and stood face to face with a white haired sannin. Jiraiya had a small frown and moved forward before putting his hand onto Kakashi's shoulder.
"I miss him to Kakashi you don't have to act like you don't." Kakashi nodded as a tear fell from his one visible eye before both the jounin and sannin turned as they felt a spike of chakra. They furrowed their brow as today everyone was given the day off except the Anbu or deployed teams. So the two shot off towards the chakra. When they arrived they a knocked out chunin and a small boy with spiky blond hair and cerulean blue eyes. They two growled deep in their throat before they charged forward at the boy.
A civilian ran at the boy with a kunai when he felt a sharp pain in his arm and looked to see a masked silver hair jounin holding his arm so it was bent at a right angle at the elbow. The jounin then kicked the man before he drew his tanto as a ninja everyone recognized jumped down and stood in front of the boy. A dumbass chunin from the back called out to Jiriaya.
"Jiriaya we give you the honor of avenging The Yondaime." It was a big mistake as Jiraiya and Kakashi turned to the chunin. Jiraiya slowly stalked forward as his face morphed into one of complete anger as Kakashi picked up the small child and shunshined to the Hokage's office handing Naruto the Sandiame.
Back in the training grounds Kakashi and Jiriaya brutally beat everyone in the ground and saved the chunin for last. Both stood above him as he cried and begged for mercy.
Kakashi raised his hiate-ate and revealed his Sharingan spinning widly before Jiraiya kicked the chunin across the face breaking his sandal in the process. Then the Hokage and his most trusted Anbu arrived and took everyone in the field except on raven haired chunin. The were about to pick her up when the small boy ran forward and stood in front of her.
"She tried to protect me leave her alone!" The Hokage nodded before Jiraiya and Kakashi looked to the young boy.
Kakashi dropped to his knee and gave the boy a one eyed smile. "Hello my name is Hatake Kakashi what's yours?"
Naruto answered hesistanly. "U-Uzumaki Naruto." Kakashi turned to the Hokage.
"Hokage-sama is Naruto still up for adoption?" The Third nodded before Kakashi picked the boy up and put him on his shoulders. "Well then I am adopting him." The Third smiled again before agreeing to the adoption.
Kakashi walked home with Naruto still on his shoulders before he stopped and pulled out his key. He easily opened the door before removing Naruto from his shoulders. Naruto looked in warily and walked in after Kakashi. He stopped in the doorway when Kakashi called from the kitchen. "Naruto you don't need to worry I promise on my nindo I will protect you from everyone ok?" Naruto nodded and a small smile appeared.
Time Skip One Year Naruto's Fifth Birthday
Naruto opened his eyes hesitantly and his eyes wandered the room until they fell on the door. The door knob turned slowly and opened. Naruto closed his eyes and he heard 7 sets of footsteps. He felt a hand gently shake his shoulder.
"Otuoto time to wake up you got to open your gifts." Naruto's eyes remained closed as he began to shake in fear. Naruto's eyes opened slowly before giving them a fearful look. Kurenai, Anko, Jiriaya, Hiruzen, Asuma, Gai and Kakashi looked at the boy smiling. Naruto was afraid what would happen.
"NO I DON'T WANT THEM!" Kakashi hearing his tone then picked Naruto up before half carrying half dragging him out. Naruto turned and then saw the wrapped presents on a table. Kakashi put him down and Naruto slowly walked to the table before he turned. Everyone smiled and nodded and he began to unwrap the presents. First he picked one up wrapped in snakes. He opened it to reveal a set of shuriken and kunai with a holster. Then he excitedly grabbed one wrapped in turtle wrapping paper and opened it revealing a set of leg and arm weights. He turned to one that was red in color and opened it. It was a book to beginner to genjutsu and storage scrolls. He opened a box wrapped in Monkey wrapping paper and found to smaller boxes in the box. One held two trench knifes while the other held a piece of paper. Hiruzen told naruto to pick it up and funnel some chakra into it. Naruto looked at him with a questioning gaze before Hiruzen explained it. After hearing the explanation he did and the paper split and crumpled. Asuma and Kakashi smiled. Kakashi because Naruto had a lightning affinity and Asuma because Naruto had a wind affinity as well. Hiruzen then pulled out 8 scrolls and handed them to Naruto. They were elemental jutsus for lightning and wind.
Naruto then turned to the second to last package. It had a book as well as the complete guide to sealing. Naruto eyed the first book carefully before smiling. He stoll a couple of Kakashi's Icha Icha to know this was the complete set. He quickly slid it under his shirt before Anko or Kurenai saw making all the men present laugh. The girls gave questioning glances before naruto pulled the last package this one wrapped in dog wrapping paper. Naruto opened it revealing a black mask exactly like Kakshi's and a small tanto much like his own. Then Everyone present got up and stood with each other turning to Naruto.
"Naruto do you want to become a ninja?"
Naruto shot up. "No I want to be the best of the kages." The group nodded then smiled.
"Well Naruto the 7 of us are going to train you. By the time you are 12 you will be jounin material." Naruto jumped with joy again. Hiruzen knew he would be treated unfairly at the academy due to his tenant so he decided to have him trained privately.
Time Skip 6 years to Naruto's 12 birthday
Naruto walked with Kakashi to the academy to take the genin test. He was already more advanced than the rest of te academy students due to his extensive training with 5 specialist jounin a seals master and the Hokage himself. Naruto entered the academy and most of the students turned to look at him. He wore a black face mask with a long sleeve black shirt rolled to the elbow with fingerless gloves with a plate of reinforced steel on the back of his hand. He wore gray camoflauge pants (A/N much like Zabuza's) and he had two trench knives hanging on his side with the hild of a tanto exposed over his left shoulder. Finally everyone looked at his boots. Most people wore sandals but Naruto took after the mist style of thinking. Steel tipped boots hurt when used to kick and protet the feet from damage. And on his head he wore a plain black sash to hold his hair in its gravity defying spikes. Iruka looked over and smiled.
"Uzumaki Naruto I presume. Lets get your test done quickly then." And he entered into a room followed by Naruto.
"First thing Naruto is the kunai and shuriken throwing you can use up to four a hand if it's a single throw." Naruto nodded and pulled out eight shuriken and then threw. Each on hit a vital point on the dummy. One in the Larynx, spine, liver, lungs, subclavical artery and finally on to the heart. Iruka's eyes went wide at the display before he forced himself on. "Okay next thing Naruto show a henge."
Naruto formed the ram seal and transformed into a perfect copy of Iruka. Iruka nodded to Naruto who returned to his normal appearance before he continued.
"Finally Naruto make a bunshin." Naruto nodded before he formed a cross with his fingers.
"Kage bunshin no jutsu!" A perfect copy of Naruto appeared and Iruka nodded.
"Okay Naruto what color headband would you like?"
"Black." Iruka nodded and handed it to Naruto who tied it to his head. He got up and walked out with Iruka calling behind him. "Team placement is tomorrow Naurto at 6am." Naruto raised his hand in acknowledgement before he drew an orange book from his pouch making Iruka snicker at the resemblance to Kakashi.
Kakashi looked up and saw an almost perfect copy of himself walking out of the academy. "Ah how was it Otoutu?"
"Troublesome. I went for 8 points on the thrown weapon portion iruka looked like he was going to turn into a fan boy." Kakashi laughed before he pulled out his own orange book and the two returned home.
The next morning Naruto and Kakashi walked to the acadamey at half past ten and walked through. Two teams were sitting waiting. Both Naruto and Kakashi place their books back in their pouches before Kakashi looked at the genin.
Naruto walked and sat with the group with only two genin and sighed lazily. He looked at his jounin sensei and sat ramrod straight when he saw both Anko and Kurenai staring at him with fire in their eyes. Kakashi walked out and waved once to his otuotu before he disappeared in a swirl of leaves. Naruto then turned to his two teammates to find it was Chouji and Kiba. He sighed again and looked at his senseis.
"Since I am here with Chouji and Kiba I assume we are a quck response team?" Both jounin who had calmed down nodded. Naruto got up and started walking to the door when Kurenai and Anko turned to him.
"Where do you think you are going?"
He turned and offered an eye smile. "To the training ground of course."
He turned and then exited and Kurenai and Anko turned to each other. Then they each grabbed one of the genin and then disappeared in a swirl of leaves to the training ground. They arrived to find Naruto sitting polishing his tanto. He looked up and smiled.
"Its about time you guys arrived Anko-chan, Kurenai-chan." The two jounin nodded and Kurenai pulled out two bells. "Now you will take your test." Kiba, Chouji, and Naruto all three turned and looked at her. "WE ALREADY PASSED THE TEST SENSEI!"
Kurenai laughed. "No you passed the requirement to take the test. Now you have to get a bell whoever doesn't is sent back to the academy. Attack with intent to kill" The three genin's eyes widened. Kakashi never said anything about this. Naruto looked at his two teammates and began to think. Everything in Kohona was about thinking underneath the underneath and teamwork. Naruto's eyes widened again. He turned to Kiba and Chouji.
"It is about teamwork. We have to help each other get a bell." The three nodded before the jumped into the woods as Kurenai began to scan the area. Naruto turned to his teammates. "Okay I have a plan. I will force her back into you Chouji. Use your clan jutsu to make her jump up into Kiba. Kiba you grab the bells and throw one to Chouji. I can last going through a year at the academy since I technically never attended it. The two nodded before Naruto let out a war cry and charged her.
Kurenai saw him coming and she jumped back. Her eyes widened as she turned and saw a large ball rolling towards her. She jumped up at the last minute using the large ball as a spring board as she dove over him right into the path of Kiba. She punched into the tornado shooting Kiba back as Akamaru stopped jumping to his master's side.
Naruto cursed as Kiba got punched. He and Chouji ran forward as Chouji transformed back into his ball and rolled forward.
Kurenai turned and saw a large ball coming again and jumped over it. She turned and saw Naruto helping Kiba up. She went to attack them and threw 5 shuriken. Naruto jumped in front of Kiba who was still trying to shake off the effects of Kuernai's hard punch and deflected the shuriken with his tanto before he drew his trench knives. He funneled Fuuton charka into them sharpening them as well as increasing their length as he ran forward. He then felt off and turned to see Kiba come out of the woods with Chouji both covered in blood. He quickly spiked his chakra and dispelled the illusion to see Kurenai with Chouji by the throat.
Naruto kill Kiba or Chouji dies. Naruto raked his brain for a way out when he got it. He used a Kawarmi to take Chouji's place and then grabbed then bells and threw them to his teammates. Kurenai let him go and smiled.
"Good job guys I pass you and make Naruto team captain. Anyone disagree?" No one said anything ad Kurenai turned to Naruto.
"That was a good idea Naruto but never use it again. All you did was change the person in danger." Naruto turned to her.
"Kurenai-chan, I substituted myself so when you made a slight mistake I could exploit it to my full advantage." She nodded.
"Still never do it again."
Naruto saw her look and nodded. She turned back to the three genin as Anko returned from the woods.
"Anko they passed so lets go celebrate." Then the group of 5 went to the Barbeque resturant and began to talk. After they left Naruto, Chouji and Kiba were relaxing.
"So since Kurenai-chan didn't do it I guess we will just introduce ourselves. I am Naruto. I like Kuenia-chan and all my other teachers as well as Icha Icha. My dislike is those that treat me like trash or any of my friends. My hobbies are kenjutsu and ninjutsu."
Chouji went next. "I am Chouji. I like food and my friends. I dislike those who call me fat or tease me. My hobby is to study my clan techniques with my dad." They turned to Kiba.
"I am Kiba. My likes are hot chicks and Akamaru. My dislikes are people who think Inuzuka's are to attaachted to their dogs. My hobbies are annoying my sister and getting dates with hot chicks." The goup began to laugh and they got up and eventually went home getting ready for team training tomorrow.
Naruto got home and greeted Kakashi. Kakashi looked up and smiled. He knew Naruto had a thng for Kurenai. "So Naruto how was training with Kurenai today?" Naruto laughed.
"Aniki if your trying to get a rise out of me you will have to try harder."
"So the sex was that good?" This made Naruto beet red before he passed out leaving a laughing Kakashi. He was also laughing because he failed his genin team consisting of Ino Sakura and a civilian that only passed the test because of the written part.
