In front of the mesh fence of the forty-fourth polygon, a crowd of sixty-seven genin gathered, who were enlightened by Anko:
-Well, here we will conduct the second stage of the exam. This is the forty-fourth polygon, also known as the Forest of Death. And you will soon understand why this place is called the Forest of Death.
-Oh, beauty, stop scaring us. In my garden at home, it will be more dangerous.
-Oh, you're that toady yesterday. I see you are cocky. — Anko grabbed and threw a kunai that should have touched my cheek tangentially.
But, I wouldn't be me if I didn't want to show off. Since I was without any weighting, my speed allowed me to catch her kunai in flight, halfway to me. Anko just wanted to rush to me, but I got ahead of her and teleported to her face, with my right hand holding the caught kunai pointed with a point in her heart. She had already started to make a movement, and almost ran into the exposed kunai. To prevent this from happening, I held her with my left hand:
-Here, you accidentally dropped the kunai. Such a beauty should be very careful with sharp things, so as not to accidentally hurt herself and not leave unnecessary marks on her beautiful body. — I put the kunai in her coat pocket and moved back. By the way, on the kunai, just in case, I put a teleportation beacon.
-I see a predator(imposter) among us. Well, I like that. Okay, before the exam starts, I have to give you this. This document confirms your consent to participate in the second stage of the exam, you must sign it. At this stage, there will definitely be casualties and so I don't want to be responsible for your deaths, hehe. So sign up. First I will explain the rules of the second stage, if you agree, sign, and after that, each team will have to register at that table. So the rules. Let's call a spade a spade, survival test awaits you. I'll start by considering the terrain where the second stage will take place. Polygon No. 44 is surrounded by forty-four closed gates. Forest, river and tower in the center, from gates to tower, ten kilometers. You will not only have to survive, but also complete a certain task. Using all possible methods, weapons and jutsus, you will participate in the battle for the scrolls. No rules. Your goals will be two scrolls, such are this "Earth" and "Sky". There are twenty-two teams of you here, half - eleven teams, you will receive the "Sky" scroll, the other eleven "Earth". Each group will receive one scroll. To pass the test, you will have to reach the tower in full force, having both scrolls with you. The time given to you to complete the assignment will be limited to one hundred twenty hours, that is, exactly five days.
-Five days? How about lunch? — Chоji asked worriedly.
-It's your problems. This forest is full of food. True, there are also enough dangerous animals, poisonous insects and plants. As a matter of fact, it is unlikely that all eleven teams will hand over. Over time, you will encounter more difficulties and fewer opportunities for relaxation. In addition, you will always be surrounded by enemies, so you won't get enough sleep either. Therefore, not only those who lost their scroll will fail, but also those who died on the way. Now let's talk about the pleasant thing - about disqualifications. Firstly, those who did not manage to reach the tower with both scrolls within the given time will not pass the test. Secondly, those who have been separated from their teammates, or those whose comrades have died. By the way. There will be no turning back. Whether you want it or not, you will spend five days in the forest. And one more rule. It is prohibited to look into the scrolls before you reach the tower. Chūnins are often trusted with classified information. We will also check your reliability. It's all. Now come to the table, hand over three permits, get a scroll, choose a gate and get ready to start. Wuh. And also, be careful. Once you receive the scroll, follow the instructor to your gate. We'll start in exactly thirty minutes.
-Well? let's go, kick there asses. Yes Mito? Tell, I'm good at it.
-Naruto! stupid! - blushed Mito outraged.
-I declare! The second test, the chūnin exam, has begun!
We went through the gate and I said:
-So not far, next to us, there is a team from the Rain, and they are heading just in our direction. And also, quite far away, I noticed someone very strong, and he is also heading here. But the first we will encounter raincoats.
-How do you know? — Sakura asked. Although Mito also knew practically nothing about my abilities, she always took what I do and say for granted.
-Did you notice the strange orange marks on my face? So they help in sensing. Well, now let's decide whether we will bring them down or not.
-Do you know what kind of scroll they have? If also "Earth", then the collision is meaningless. —Sasuke said.
-I, of course, could find out when they received the scroll, but I didn't, because it wouldn't be interesting at all. Yes, even if they have "Earth", we will give it to the team of Hinata, or Ino, or the one with the funny haircut Ten-Ten, or even Temari, and I also saw a red-haired beauty there.
- Okay, Naruto stop, we got you. Better yet, we realized that you were a dog. Sakura said.
-And-and-that's all, I've already flunked them. We were lucky they had a Heaven scroll.
-In the sense, flunked? You mean the Heaven scroll? You've been standing here all the time. Sakura wondered.
-Sakura, I'm a shadow clone. The original was gone about thirty seconds ago, dealing with raincoats. Well, you know, I thought that you don't want to see how people fall into two halves and pour everything around them with blood and shit ... other liquids?
-N-no. - answered Sakura.
-That's what I thought. So, get ready, right now that strong type will come, about which I spoke, my original will work now. - finished my clone, but I already finished the raincoats and hid their scroll together with ours, in a spatial pocket.
Then, a strong hurricane gust of wind passed through the glade, which scattered everyone, and also dispelled my clone, which was immediately replaced. When everyone gathered, my fake clone said:
-Sasuke, girls are you okay?
I moved between my team and the fake, immediately used an air ram with wind-bladed, thereby knocking the impostor back, dispelling Henge and damaging his disguise.
-So, who came to us? A strange guy with a long tongue, pale skin, purple eyeliner, yellow serpentine pupils and a serpentine sen chakra hovering around him. Really, we were honored with attention of nukenin of the S rank the runaway student of the Third Hokage, the Great Serpentine Sannin - Orochimaru. Let's applaud him! Eh? What? Nobody wants to greet a dear guest? He tried so hard, disguised himself, unnoticed entered the village for the exam, just now he played as me well. The only drawback is that at first I would have inquired about the condition of Mito and Sakura, and perhaps then Sasuke, and even that is unlikely. Well, then, Mr. Orochimaru, why did you come? for me? For Sasuke? Or both of us?
-And you're smart, as I was told. And I see you've mastered the Sennin mode. How old are you there? Thirteen sort of. You are talented enough. I think your body is perfect as plan B.
- As I said recently, long-haired guys don't interest me, I prefer girls. So, you will not get my body, mister snake pervert. - I turned to my team, and warned them. - He's too tough for you, even I am unlikely to deal with him.
- Oh, I really want to see how you deal with me. If you impress me, then besides Sasuke, I will make a present for you too. - Rolling up his sleeve and biting his finger, he drew a bloody line along the seal on his forearm, thereby summoning huge snakes.
Yes, it is at such moments that the summon will be useful to deal with another summon of the enemy. But I do not have a summon, instead, I created a wooden clone to help myself, which began dealting with snakes. And on me, Orochimaru pressured, starting to use both Wind and Earth ninjutsu and his strange snake taijutsu, using lengthening limbs.
My team decided to help me, girls started throwing kunais and shurikens, Sasuke started throwing fire and also joined the fight. But no matter how we pressed on him, it was clear that he still is holding back. After all, he is much older and more experienced than just us, he went through the Second and Third Shinobi World Wars and all of us, even the four of us, could not kill him. Although when it seemed that we had only succeeded, he disappointed us and, having fallen as mud, turned out to be only an Earth clone. When my wooden clone dealt with all the summoned snakes, he also joined in the fight with Orochimaru.
-I think I will not delay any longer. You impressed me. Sasuke is already worthy of being a chūnin, and you Naruto with your Wood Release made me especially happy. I think you deserve something that will make you even stronger, if you survive, of course. - Orochimaru's neck lengthened and the head rushed to Sasuke, I tried to chop it off with a kunai, wrapped in a wind blade, but Orochimaru's neck twisted like a snake and he still bit Sasuke in the neck, putting the Cursed Seal on him. He wanted to do the same with me, but he began to bump into spatial barriers. When I got serious and started using the Odama Rasengans with teleportation, I was able to practically destroy his body twice. And in order to survive, he had to use his strange technique, when he crawled unharmed from the open mouth of a previous wounded body, shedding it, like a snake shedding its skin.
It was evident that this technique weakens him enough, so he decided to give up anyway, from the idea of putting Juin on me and decided to retreat. When he finally crawled away, I said:
-Well, kids, we were out of luck, and we attracted the attention of a bad strong uncle, who also looks like an aunt. We managed to fight back, although rather it was he who simply spared us and retreated. Mito, Sakura, are you all right, have you been hit by the random technique?
-No, Naruto. - answered Mito.
-normal, if the S-rank nukenin attacked us can be called normal. - answered Sakura, leaning against a tree from exhaustion.
-Excellent. Sasuke, then let me check what's with the bite on neck.
-Come on. Something is burning there, maybe he poisoned me. - Sasuke approached me.
-Hmm.
-What is it, something serious? - Mito asked, who stood next to me.
- Sasuke, you can calm down it's not poison. Not much better either, though. Orochimaru put a seal on you... cursed. In principle, as I understood this, this is his gift, which was supposed to make us stronger.
-Stronger? And How? - Sasuke asked.
- I don't know yet, but I'll take a look. - I turned on Hoshingan, and began to observe the deployment of the cursed seal.
-Naruto, your eyes are glowing blue and the pupil became kind of strange. - stated the approaching Sakura.
-This is my dojutsu. - I named him Hoshingan.
-Hoshingan? I have never heard as such one. I only know that the Hyūga have special eyes with their Byakugan, my clan's Sharingan and also about the legendary Rinnengan.
-Hoshingan is something like a mixture of Sharingan and Byakugan. It was in my ancestors that the Hyūga and the Uchiha had their place. So Sasuke, to some extent, we can be called relatives. Okay, about seal, it has two levels of activation. Now the installation of the first level is in progress, when it is over, you will have something similar to a faded analogue of the duplicate Chakra Circulation System. When the seal is activated, it will connect to the main one and briefly strengthen you several times. As you understand the creation of this duplicate of the CCS, it is very chakra-costly, and not everyone will be able to withstand and survive after installing this seal, so Orochimaru said "if we survive." You don't have to worry, even though you will become very weak for this period, but you have enough chakra, so you will survive. But you may start to feel feverish, so if this happens, I'll assign my clone on you, he will support you by pumping in Med-chakra.
-What about the second level? - Sasuke asked, interested, having stopped worrying so much.
- For the second level, you are not ready yet, and with a ninety percent chance you will definitely die. But for the installation of the second level of the seal to begin, someone must activate it from the outside, being nearby. Most likely, this is done by Orochimaru himself, or maybe his entourage. Therefore, death from exhaustion is not threatening you yet. When the second level is established, then the duplication of the system will finally be completed, and also some substance will disperse through your body that reacts to the sen-chakra and absorbs it. When you activate the second level of the seal, you will strengthen by several orders of magnitude for a while, plus you will have something like a sennin-mode.
-But everything is so rosy, it can't be. Even with the possibility of dying during the installation of a seal, it all sounds too good. - Sasuke said.
-Yes you are right. Orochimaru does not look like a good Samaritan who altruistically walks for free and gives out strengthening seals. The cursed seal, I called it for a reason, it has a built-in control unit that allows Orochimaru to feel the one on whom he has his seal, and also, so that the force that gives him the seal is not turned against him, he can deactivate it and use it to cause a strong pain. And that's not all the disadvantages. The main disadvantage is that in the seal, a structure from Orochimaru's chakra is hidden, making the seal a beacon for his soul. And if Orochimaru's body dies or destroyed, then he can capture the body of the nearest bearer of the Cursed Seal. Most likely, it was in order to take your body, which possesses the Uchiha's genes, and therefore the Sharingan, that is reason he gave you this seal. Yes, if not for all this, I myself would have lets him a bite on my neck.
-What to do now? - Sakura asked, looking at Sasuke, who was rubbing the seal on his neck with his hand.
-Now we have to get away from here and settle down for a halt. Sasuke may soon become ill, and it would be better if he lay passed out in a protected place. When the first level of the seal is finally established, my original will be able to remove everything unnecessary from the seal, and Sasuke will not have to give his body to anyone. It will also remove the ability for Orochimaru to influence the seal, but leave the ability for him to sense the seal medium. This is in case he lost touch with the seal and wants to come and check what happened, and whether Sasuke died.
-So you're a clone? Where is the original then? And when did you change again? -Sakura asked.
-Then when I was talking about the second level of the seal, in the distance I felt that Orochimaru ran into our examiner Mitarashi Anko, and went to check. And in order not to interrupt the conversation important for Sasuke, I left a clone in my place. Okay, let's go and find a secluded spot, where I, with the help of Mokuton, will grow us a safe and comfortable home.
***
I teleported to the beacon left on Anko's kunai. Kunai was stuck in a tree, and Anko's body was lying unconscious nearby. Something is seems, that Orochimaru was not in the mood after me, and, having met his former student, he did not was too ceremonious with her. Approaching her, I immediately healed the pierced through the left palm. And without wasting time with the help of Toshingan, I compared the seals of Anko and Sasuke. And I must say that Anko has a bullshit seal. It practically does not give any advantages, in the sense that she also creates a weak copy of the CCS, but all that chakra in it goes for own maintenance, and to maintain a beacon for Orochimaru's soul, and the beacon was an order of magnitude larger than that of Sasuke. It can be seen that the seal is crude and unfinished, so I easily removed it, and connected the duplicating SCC directly to the main one. This whole process was quite painful, so during the unsealing and working with the CCS, I kept Anko unconscious. After that, she may not come to herself for a couple of hours, and perhaps for a couple of days she will not feel very well. So I took Anko in my arms and teleported to the beacon, which was brought to the tower by my clone, which I sent there when I was dealing with raincoats. There was no one there yet, so after finding a room apparently reserved for staff, I left Anko's body there, and also left her three sealing scrolls and a letter as an apology.
Personally I, created forty clones in order for them to find enemy teams and, if possible, capture their scrolls, or if they are, for example, Hinata's team, then help her.
When I returned to the team, Mito and Sakura were standing beside Sasuke lying on the bed. He was very feverish and my clone kept him stable.
-What was there? -Mito asked.
-Our examiner turned out to be a former student of Orochimaru, and she was not very happy to see him, because he also branded her, and then escaped becoming a nukenin. So, they had a hot meeting of a teacher and a student there. But Anko is not Orochimaru's opponent, so when I arrived, she was already in a defeated, unconscious state. Good news is I practiced in removing Juin, of course her seal was much worse than Sasuke's, but I'm not going to break Sasuke's seal and I'm going to tweak it so slightly by removing unwanted elements. By the way, do you want to eat? I have many different dishes sealed in scrolls.
-I want. After stress, I always want to eat badly, and attack from a high-ranking renegade is stressful.
Having grown furniture and a table, I unsealed the food and we ate. When the clone said that the seal installation was complete, I wasted no time securing Sasuke's body from Orochimaru's encroachments. Sasuke was still unconscious, and after my manipulations, I think he will sleep until tomorrow.
There was nothing to do, and therefore, I began to scan the area with the help of sennin-mode's sensorics and noticed the source of chakra, which resembled Mito's pure chakra, and some creature mutated because of excess of natural chakra was chasing after her. I moved to the nearest clone, after all I gave each clone a spatial beacon, and with the help of Hoshingan, I looked at everything closely. By the way, with the help of Hoshingan, I can look into the distance for a maximum of two and a half kilometers, while the view is reduced to ten degrees. So, it was Karin and a bear was chasing her, and also the bear was the size of a house. Karin stumbled and fell, then the bear would have overtaken her, if not for me. Moving in front of Karin, I, with the help of Odama Rasengan, reinforced by the senn-Chakra, threw the bear back and at the same time ground a quarter of the bear into dust.
-Hugh body. And how did this one grow? It contains ten tons of meat. Well, well, well, who is so beautiful here, trying to seem as inconspicuous as possible? You're that red-haired cutie from the Grass. Don't be afraid, I won't touch you, and I don't need your scroll.
-Who are you? - said Karin, finally putting on her glasses, which she dropped during the fall.
-I'm Naruto Hensū. Why are you alone here? Where are your partners? How could they leave such a cute beauty alone in this dangerous forest?
-They told me to hide with the scroll, and they themselves went to try to get the second. And I couldn't even do that, almost immediately the bear almost ate me. I don't even know how our team will be able to pass this stage. We have seen what genin from other villages are capable of, they are just monsters compared to us. Especially compared to me. Listen, I remembered you, you helped me on the exam yesterday.
-Yes me. Okay, do you want me to take you to your partners? Or do you want something completely different? Since I like you, even though you are from a foreign village, I will fulfill any of your requests. Any.
-You, why... I... I don't believe you. It's just that no one helps for no reason, and the fact that you liked me is not the reason.
- Okay, you got me through, that's not the whole reason. You just understand, I'm a sensor, and your chakra is very similar to the chakra of Mito, my close friend and teammate. And I can tell you are definitely relatives, not close, but let's say, such as if you were from the same clan. And here Mito just has the surname Uzumaki, as well as the extinct Uzumaki clan, famous for its strong chakra and red hair. Mito is fiery-red and has a strong chakra. You are red-haired and you also have a strong chakra. Plus, I also had distant relatives from this clan, I, however turned out to be blond, but my chakra is also strong. And I will add that Mito is my fiancée, and that's why I want to help a possible relative. Now I will ask again. What do you really want?
-I... What I really want... you cannot fulfill... my dead mother... you will not resurrect... because you cannot resurrect the dead.
- Well, actually I can. I once entered Konoha's closed archive and there, in the Forbidden Scroll of Seals, was the Impure World Reincarnation technique. It requires a living sacrifice, on which a complex seal is applied, and a piece of the one you want to resurrect is added. The ritual is activated, and the soul of the deceased returns from the Pure land and enters the victim's body, changing it to its past. This technique is considered forbidden, plus, in my opinion, unfinished. Since even though the deceased is resurrected, he does not become alive from this, and the resurrected one will be deprived of many joys of a living body. Although, just in case, I memorized this technique, and wanted to refine it later. Since I am a high-class physician, I think I will be able to achieve the fact that you can simply reanimate the old body and, using this technique, call a soul from the afterlife and infuse it into the past body. But I have not had time to improve this technique yet. If you wait about a year and give me the body of the deceased, then I can help you. And if there is no body at all, then it is possible in principle to create a new one, but it will be, firstly, longer, and secondly, I still need the DNA of the deceased. Well, don't cry.
- sniff-sniff... You... can you really? But for a year… I don't… I don't know, we are unlikely to pass this exam, and in my village I was obliged to help my teammates pass this exam. And what will they do to me in the village if I fail, I'm afraid to imagine.
- You know I have a question. Do you want to go back to Hidden Grass Village at all?
-I... My mother and I, we lived in the village, because we just had nowhere to go. We were accepted, but... but on condition that my mother with her chakra, help to heal in the hospital. But one day Kusa suffered huge losses, and my mother was urgently taken to the hospital and... and soon they came for me too... my mother, she died of exhaustion, and they decided to replace her with me. I… if I could, I would never return to the Grass Village, the village that took my mother's life and made my life a daily hell.
-Hmm, then if you agree, I can offer you this option. I cut out your team and the only thing that will be left of them is a pile of minced meat, and you have been eaten by wild animals. The entire team died in the exam. Well, that happens. When villages send their genin for an exam, they know what they are doing, and they know that genin may not return to the village after dying on that exam. Well, for real I will hide you at home, my house is far from the populated areas of Konoha, plus it is protected by barriers, so they won't find you there.
-You... you can't do that much for me, just like that. The fact that I, there is some possible relative of yours, and a possible relative of some of your Mito, is not a reason to provide me with so much help.
-I don't just do it. You see, I'm a creepy dog and a womanizer who dreams of a harem. And by helping you, I get the opportunity to drag you into my harem.
-I agree!
-what you mean?
-If my body becomes the price for my mother's life, and the opportunity to never return to Kusa, then I agree to pay such a price.
-Hmm, you're quickly. In order for Mito to agree to join the harem, I first had to quarrel with her because of this, then she tried to kill me, then I named the bridge in her honor, then there were two months of mutual resentment and disregard, and only then when we made up, she finally agreed. Okay, come to me, and you better take my hand, I will transfer us to my house And my clones will deal with your team for now. - I tranfered us to the most luxurious room of my house, from which you can get to any part of the house.
-Where are we? At the daimyo's palace? Are you a prince?
-Hehe, no, we're still in Konoha. This house and almost everything in it, I made myself, using various elemental techniques. So, here is the kitchen, there is a bathroom and a toilet, and let's go, we'll probably choose a room for you.
Karin chose a room with a balcony overlooking the lake, in which I grew various water-loving plants, such as lotus.
-Okay, I have to go back to the team. You settle down. While I'm away, you can run this place. - I applied all kinds of healing on her and said, - But before I leave, I would like to see what I paid for. So my future wife, be kind and show me your body.
-I-I can't, I'm not ready, I... I
- Come on, just take off this long-sleeved shirt, please your future husband with a great look.
-I... I can't... I
-Take off your shirt! Now! - I shouted and my eyes lit up because of Hoshingan, which made my look a little frightening.
Karin lowered her head, began to slowly unbutton her shirt and just as slowly began to pull it off. She was afraid that because of the scars left after the bites, which were required for treatment, I would not like her body and refuse to help her. But when she didn't see the scars where they should have been, she quickly took off her shirt and began examining her forearms and skin elsewhere.
-What is it you are looking as if you have never seen?
-I... I... had... had... I don't know where they are?
-What happened? Was there a bunch of bite scars all over your body?
-How do you know? And what happened to them?
-Look into my eyes. These eyes can see through walls, clothes for them are certainly not an obstacle. And I healed the scars. My beautiful wife must have the same beautiful skin as herself, without any scars.
-So you can look through clothes, and even seeing me, you still considered me beautiful?
-Becouse you are really a beauty, and just, in a couple of seconds, I made you even more beautiful by removing small flaws. Okay, you were just too nervous and worried. You were afraid that you would become disgusting to me because of the scars, and I would refuse to help you. But even despite the scars, for the faithfulness of keeping promises, you practically gave me your body yourself, agreeing to go to my harem. And when you saw my house, then your nerves finally failed.
-Yes, I realized that such a rich handsome man would not do something for a girl unpleasant to him, he would rather find himself some other beauty than fulfill the promises of the ugly who deceived him. So as soon as you leave, I wanted to leave here, and from Konoha... and from Kusa.
-Well, that's how I got it. So now you can relax and release the scroll you grabbed onto. Give it here, you won't need it anyway, and your teammates, who, through the diligence of my clones, have already turned into fertilizer and feed the worms, all the more so. Now you can finally consider this house as yours. - I approached and kissed Karin deeply, while not forgetting to stroke her bare shoulders and back.
When the long kiss ended, Karin was no longer holding her legs, and so I put her on the bed, saying:
-Welcome to my harem. I would love to continue, but I see that you are not ready yet, and you still have enough impressions for today. So rest, and I'll finally go.
But I did not have time to return to the team, my clone told me that he had found Hinata's team, and she was now hiding, not far in the bushes, from Gaara's team. And Gaara was angry and bloodthirsty, even more than usual. And just now, he crushed the team from the Rain with sand. Hinata's team, seeing such a swift and bloody massacre, became very nervous and inadvertently betrayed themselves. Gaara, hearing a suspicious noise in the bushes, attacked them with a wave of sand. In order not to lose my future boobly wife, and so that she would not be crushed like losers from Ame, I transferred to the second remaining clone, I stood in the path of a wave of sand and covered myself with a spatial barrier. The sand crashed into the barrier, and I stamped my foot and sent Mokuton across the ground, who grew a wooden vine at Gaara's feet, which in an instant twisted around him.
- Hush, hush, hot gritty guy. - Gaara was trying to do something, but the sand almost stopped obeying him, so he tried to get out on his own, which he also failed. - Hello pretty Temari. Somehow your little brother is even more angry and he fills with the thirst for murder, than before? It seems that the hoop that I gave you, to calm him down, should have been enough for another ten days.
-Ah it's you Naruto. You just understand when we told our father about you, that you invited us to visit you and that you helped Gaara by giving the suppression biju hoop. Father got angry, yelled at us and forbade us to have any business with you, and also took the hoop from Gaara, saying that it could harm and weaken the jinchuriki. After that, Gaara became even angrier and more irritable.
-I would also become angrier and irritable if at first, they gave me the opportunity, over the years, to sleep normally, without a voice in my head promising that as soon as you fall asleep, it will take over your body and start sowing death and destruction, and then take this opportunity and take it away. I don't understand your Kazekage, to be honest. We are allies, why should I harm you? even now, all the genin from Suna, as well as from Konoha, I simply stun and take the scrolls, but let's say teams of genin from other villages, if there is no girl in them, I just kill, as I promised in the first exam. But you don't have to worry now, I don't need your scroll, I have already neutralized enough teams, and if only one team from Konoha pass the second stage, then I will simply ruin the exam. Therefore, besides my team, I left four more teams from Konoha, and for a change, a team from Sound and here is your team from Sand. Well, I'm sorry that I won't be able to communicate with a beauty like you.
-Sorry Naruto, It's a pity! But we cannot disobey the order of our father and the Kazekage.
-Okay, it looks like you've got the scroll you need, so I'll take my leave with your permission. Good luck for reach the tower. - I finally let go of Gaara, and disappeared.
My clone, while I was chatting with Temari, took Hinata's team to the side of the tower, and since they did not have a scroll, because I had already collected almost all the scrolls. He said to wait twenty minutes and the original will now return with the scrolls and give them the one they need.
I began to move around the beacons located at the clones, and collect scrolls from the stunned teams, and if they were teams from Suna and Konoha, then I give out clones who carried these teams to the gates of the training ground, gave them a scroll with food and warned them that if they will try to return to the forest again, then I will not spare them. I dealt with teams from other villages radically, and in the end I killed seventeen people, including Karin's teammates, gaining a total of 11 SP. The loot for the scrolls was eight Earth scrolls and six Heaven scrolls. Gave Hinata the Earth scroll and also found the commands of Ino, Ten-Ten and Kabuto's command, and also gave them the needed Heaven scrolls.
I also met a team from Sound, this is how it was:
- We've been looking for this Uchiha all day, where did he go? - said the wrapped soundman, Dosu.
-Orochimaru-sama gave us clear instructions to find him, so we will keep looking for him, otherwise I don't want to think about the punishment we will receive for not completing our task. – Kin said.
- Oh, so you are minions of that snake crawl Orochimaru. - they all turned to me and wanted to attack, but I again laid them all down with their snout on the ground, and Kin again held on to my outstretched hand by the throat.
-And again, everything is repeated. Don't rock the boat, otherwise my hand may accidentally twitch and I will break your neck. So you're wrapped up, tell me why you need Sasuke, otherwise the girl will have to learn to live without a head.
- You can kill her, I still won't say anything.
- Hmm, beauty you're out of luck with your partners. Okay, let's go from the other direction.
with the help of Mokuton, I tied Kin, and went to her second partner, Zaku.
-So, maybe you will be more accommodating.
-I don't... Aa-rh - I stepped on his left hand with force and heard the crunch of bones.
-Well, tell me. Why do you need Sasuke? Otherwise, you have one more arm and two legs and a ridge, and finally, a skull. You all have them, and I have a lot of free time. So, sooner you answer me, more intact bones you will have.
-Ugh... Orochimaru ordered us to find and kill Sasuke Uchiha, at any cost.
-Something does not agree in your words. Orochimaru himself recently attacked our team and could easily killed Sasuke. But instead, he said, he gifted him to make Sasuke stronger and gave him his Cursed Seal of Heaven. I saw this seal and understood how it works. So, this is not think you want to put on the person you want to kill. This seal is valuable enough to not be thrown around like that. Well, what do you say now? What, don't you say anything? Therefore, I will say. You were simply used as some kind of pawns. You are just meat sent to the slaughterhouse to test Sasuke's strength. I even feel sorry for you. Although no, I'm not sorry for you two freaks, but I'm sorry for the beauty. I will not even kill you, and I will even help you by giving you the necessary scroll. Try your luck at killing Sasuke on the exam. Yeah, something seems to me with such a master, you end up badly, and moreover pretty soon, and moreover, most likely from the hands of your own master. Hey pretty, what's your name?
-Tsuchi Kin.
-And me, as you perhaps know, Naruto Hensu, and I am a terrible womanizer, so I will be sorry if a beauty with such gorgeous hair somehow absurdly dies by the hand of her master. And therefore, in addition to the "Heaven" scroll, I will give you a small present, this bracelet for your wrist. it will help you avoid death by transferring you straight to me. Of course, you can throw it away, but judging by recent events, it may soon come in handy and save your life. Just put it on your hand and pour some chakra, and when you mentally say, "Naruto, save me!", You will teleport to me. I advise you to think it as an emergency escape plan. Well, take care of yourself, beauty, and you douchebags, bye.
I finally transferred to my team, it was getting late, we had dinner and I created two more beds, for Sakura and for me and Mito. Mito and I lay adoring, hugging, kissing and all this not far from Sakura, who quietly watched us from a half-open blanket.
Sasuke woke up with us in the morning:
- Well, branded by a snake pervert. How are you feeling?
[TL: preposition can be translated as "as" or "by". That depends on the content. But we all know what he means]
-I... I feel stronger and the chakra have become more, and I also feel that I can become even stronger, only if I so desire.
-Well, yes, your chakra volume has increased by around twenty percent, and you can activate the first level of the seal if you wish. But for now, I don't recommend you to do this. The seal has just set and has not yet taken root well, and if you use it, then although you will become stronger, you will quickly fizzle out, plus you will feel a burning pain. Therefore, it is better to wait a week, preferably two. Yes, you don't have to worry anymore, I removed everything superfluous from the seal yesterday, so you will be the only rightful owner of your Uchiha body. Well then, let's eat and go to the tower. Yesterday I got us three Heaven scrolls and six Earth scrolls.
-No, got fourteen, I just gave the other scrolls to Hinata, Ino, Ten-Ten, Kin and Kabuto.
-So Kabuto is your friend from the hospital, girls understand that too, but who is this Kin? - Mito asked with a fresh note of jealousy.
- She is that long-haired girl from Sound. By the way, Mito, I found your possible relative, she, it seems, is also from the Uzumaki clan, but she lived in grass, now she is at our house.
-What kind of relative?! What clan Uzumaki?!
-Mito, at the history lectures, we were told about the Uzumaki clan, which had its own village Uzushiogakure - the Village Hidden by the Whirlpools, and which was an ally of Konoha, but it was destroyed during the Third Shinobi World War. Did you fall asleep again and miss out everything?
-I... Yes. I'm sorry, but I've never heard of any other Uzumaki besides me.
-Eh, Mito, I should have less help you to cheat, maybe then you yourself would have learned something. The First Hokage's wife was Uzumaki, and guess what her name was?
- I... I don't know.
- Her name was like you, Mito Uzumaki. Ai-ai-ai not knowing your famous namesake, who was the first jinchūriki of the Kyūbi and the wife of the founder of Konoha. Mito probably still needed you to sit in the Academy for another year, otherwise I tried, I went and begged the Hokage that you get accepted as a genin, and you don't know basic things. We will come home after the exams, and I will punish you, so prepare your butt, you will not be able to sit for a long time.
-I… okey. - it seems she understood exactly how I would punish her, so she was not very upset, but rather the opposite.
- Well, we ate. Now we will decide how we will get there, on foot or will I teleport us directly to the tower?
-Let's walk. Otherwise, it turns out the whole second exam, we will pass, only because of you. You got the scrolls, and you will also deliver us to the tower. - answered Sakura.
-Well, I don't mind. let'go.
We went to the tower and there, at the entrance, there was a poster with an inscription that lacked words. We opened the scrolls and Iruka appeared in the smoke, who explained the meaning of the inscription and congratulated us on passing the second stage of the chūnin exam. He also said that we, like the other teams who arrived, would have to wait in the tower for the end of the five-day exam period, since genin from other villages might still come up, to which I said that this was unlikely, since I had all the scrolls and dumped them in front of Iruka. He scratched his head and said that he needed to inform the Hokage about this.
- = Shortly before this, POV of Mitarashi Anko = -
Oh, why do I feel so bad. So, where am I and... Orochimaru... he sneaked in the exam, and I caught up with him and wanted to kill him using the Twin Serpent Mutual Death Technique, which was supposed to kill him one hundred percent with me. But, he just laughed at me and I almost traded my life for the death of his Earth Clone. And then he started hurting me with a seal, and then knocked me out... Damn, damn, damn! This Cursed Seal that bastard branded me with. This troublesome seal, even the Third Hokage, the teacher of this bastard, could not take it off. Ha? What the? I can't feel the seal? I need a mirror.
-This can't be! Where did it go? Although I'm very happy about its disappearance, but... and... and by the way, how did I end up here? If the ANBU found me, they would sooner carry me to the hospital. Hmm, even my hand is healed. So, what are these scrolls with a letter.
[TR: CCS is Chakra Circulation System]
« This letter is for the most beautiful kunoichi Mitarashi Anko, who is also the proctor of the second chūnin exam in which I participate. Maybe you remember me, I am Naruto Hensu, even at the beginning of the exam I returned the kunai to you, which of course you accidentally dropped right in my direction. Never mind. In general, the renegade Orochimaru attacked our team, and before his retreat he put on my teammate Uchiha Sasuke, the Cursed Seal. I studied it thoroughly. But a little later, with the help of sensing, I again noticed Orochimaru's chakra, moreover next to your chakra. I went to check, and on the spot, I found your unconscious body, with a wounded arm. I cured you, but I noticed the same seal on your neck as Sasuke's neck. Having studied it, I came to the conclusion that it was put on a very long time ago, even when it was, not as refined and perfect as Sasuke's seal. In Sasuke's seal can briefly strengthen him and give him a semblance of sennin-mod. But in each cursed seal, a piece of Orochimaru is hidden, with the help of which he, in the event of his death, he will be able to revive and capture the body of the bearer of this seal. You, Anko, had this particle very large, more than Sasuke, ten times. Most likely you were the guarantee that at his death, Orochimaru, absolutely can he reborn... in you. But as you may have noticed, now he will not be able to do this, because I removed the seal and destroyed that piece. The seal, one might say, slightly duplicated your CCS, and therefore when I removed it, I had to tinker a bit with connecting it to the main CCS, which in the end would make you fifteen percent stronger. But now you may feel a little tired. For this arbitrariness, I apologize. I just thought that such a beautiful kunoichi would not want to wear marks that disfigure her skin, or also give her sexy body for the use of a creepy, snake-like transvestite man. And as an apology, as compensation for everything, I left you three scrolls. I noticed you had dango sticks in your pocket, and you smelled slightly of sweets, so I left you the first scroll, in which are sealed different types of dango, from different ingredients and with different syrups. In the second scroll, various other sweets and drinks are sealed. In the third, various gourmet dishes. All this I prepared with the help of clones. I hope you enjoy it and you won't be angry with me. »
-Hmm, he was able to remove the seal and writes about it as something insignificant. Moreover, he apologizes for that. I should report This matter to the Hokage. But... but first let's try, something from the first scroll.
After five portions of the tastiest dango she ever had tasted, Anko stopped looking at scroll, she takes it and two others, and went to report to the Hokage.
- = End POV = -
When Iruka came from the Hokage, he said that we would still have to wait four more days, since the exam was designed for certain dates that would be difficult to move, plus some genins would need rest. In general, we were sitting in the tower, I talked with Ino, Hinata, Sakura and Mito just like Academy times, then Ten-Ten joined us. During the conversations, everyone talked about what missions they performed, but I treated everyone with sweets and did not forget to give everyone compliments.
And at nights Mito and I teleported home, where I was a strict teacher and severely punished her for poor knowledge, punished her several times. But the first night we transferred home, I introduced Mito to Karin:
-So this is my relative from the Uzumaki clan? - Mito asked, looking suspiciously at Karin.
- I don't know exactly, but Naruto said our chakra is similar. Now I will check, since I am also a sensor. - Karin closed her eyes, and after a moment she started and jumped away from us. She was so scared that she almost fell and I had to teleport to catch her.
- Hey, Karin calm down. What happened to you? Do not be afraid.
-Her chakra, it looks like mine... but from her belly comes a strong evil chakra, saturated with anger and hatred. And the amount of chakra is huge. Naruto, you have even more chakra than she has, and it exudes danger and... and confidence. Both of you are just monsters. How could you even be admitted with other genins for the exam, if compared to you, everyone else is like a puddle in front of the ocean.
-Karin calm down. It's just Mito's jinchūriki of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, and there is a sealing fuin on Mito's belly, from which some of the bijū's chakra comes out.
- Yes, I see... Mito's chakra is warm and bright, it spreads throughout the body, and this negative chakra comes only from the abdomen. And you Naruto, if I checked your strength yesterday, I would not even try to deceive you, rather I would try to run away from you.
- Well, that means it's good that you didn't checked it. Listen Karin, I will not offend you, and if there is danger from my chakra, then this danger is directed at my enemies. By the way, Mito can you imagine, as soon as I told Karin that I was collecting a harem, she immediately asked to join. Yes, Karin?
-Yes.
-Eh? How is that? I thought the next would be Sakura or, in extreme cases, that examiner. I hoped it would happen later, much later. And Naruto, she, will be with us now, when we... well, we will be together... loveing?
-I don't know about that. How are you, Karin, ready to love with us, huh? By your little red face, and a slight fright, I see that you're not ready yet. Okay, don't be afraid, I do not insist, and I do not force anyone. When you're ready, then we'll talk about it. Well, in general, how have you settled down here? Are you comfortable? Do you have any complaints or wishes?
-What complaints can be. This place is similar to how I imaged paradise. Delicious food, warm home, soft bed, no one comes to your house and drags you to the hospital forcibly, where they bite you and drink your chakra. If my mother and I had a choice, we would go to live with you.
-It would hardly worked. I built this house quite recently, and before that, Mito and I lived in a small apartment in the hostel, which was allocated to us as orphans who studied at the Academy. Okay, let's not talk about sad things, Mito and I will go to have fun, if you want, you can come with us, you can watch the process. What, don't want? Well, okay, by the way, you are losing a lot.
***
Finally, the second stage of the exam was over, and all the participants gathered in a large hall in front of the Hokage and mentors. Anko looked at me time to time and said:
- First of all, congratulations on passing the second exam. The Great Hokage will now explain about the third stage of the exam. Everyone listen carefully. Great Hokage, please.
Then the old man began to explain the essence of the chūnin exam, saying that this is some kind of replacement for World Wars, and the fact that the participating genin show the power of their village, thereby, in case of a successful performance, increase the flow of the mission to their village. And when the third proctor appeared, who asked Hokage to let's him to tell about the rules of the third stage, Hokage gave the floor to him.
- I beg your pardon, Great Hokage, let me, referee Gekko Hayate, explain everything.
-Good.
-Hello everybody. Khx-khxe. Until the third stage of the exam, you... Hmm... you have to do something. Khxe-khxee. These will be qualifying fights for the third exam.
- Damn, you would have said at the beginning how much, at least approximately should have passed, I would have let's passed that much. instead of that I had to run, hand out the scrolls, I thought that if only our team passed, it would ruin the whole exam. And here it turns out on the contrary, there are still too many of us.
-Yes, Naruto is right. Why can't we start the third exam with all the remaining participants? -Sakura asked.
- Eh, how can I tell you, probably because there will be many guests at the third exam, therefore, we cannot have many fights. Also, we will be limited in time. So whoever is feeling unwell... Kh-khy-kha-khy… I beg your pardon. If anyone wants to withdraw their candidacy, please let me know. The qualifying fights will begin immediately. Well, if no one wants to refuse, then let's start the preliminary fights. These will be one-on-one battles, in other words, it will be like a real fight. Since there are exactly twenty-two of you, we will play eleven matches and the winners will go to the third exam. There are no rules, you fight until the enemy dies or can't continue the fight. So if you don't want to die, you better give up right away. Also, I can stop you to rule out unnecessary deaths, so don't be surprised. None of us want corpses. Look, this is an electronic information board, it will display the opponents in each fight. Now let's see the names of the first two contenders. So, those whose names are highlighted on the scoreboard will come forward. The first fight will take place between Sasuke Uchiha and Akado Yoroi.
Overall, Sasuke was in good shape, so he quickly rolled out Kabuto's teammate without even using the cursed seal.
The second fight was between Abumi Zaku from Sound and Aburame Shino, where the beetle lover won.
The third fight was Kankurō against Tsurugi Misumi, Kabuto's second teammate, where the puppeteer crushed the opponent.
The fourth fight was Ino vs. Sakura. It was a long fight, filled with women's conversations about friendship, devotion and love, interspersed with women's fight. In the end, they knocked each other out, but Sakura, due to my training and learning medical-nin jutsu, lasted longer than Ino before fainting. But they still got a draw. I went down to the arena, and together with the clone I lifted their bodies up and healed.
The fifth battle was Temari against Ten-Ten, where Temari, with the help of the wind created by her huge fan, deflected all the rain of sharp iron that Ten-Ten was sending into her by unsealing the scrolls one by one. The opponent for Ten-Ten was extremely unlucky, and therefore when she ran out of iron, Temari caught her in Sickle Weasel Technique, which lifted her into the air and began to inflict wounds. When the technique ended, Ten-Ten began to fall exhausted, and Temari substituted her folded fan, onto which Ten-Ten collapsed backwards. When Temari was declared victorious, she threw Ten-Ten's body into the air. Seeing this, Rock Lee began to move to catch her, but I teleported earlier, and while still in flight, I intercepted her and together we smoothly sank to the ground. Ten-Ten was covered in scratches, her open hands were especially bad. I applied « Medium Heal » on her and all the wounds closed before my eyes.
-Eh, Temari, why are you so evil? The girl has already lost to you, there was no need to do something so low like beating the defeated one. Lee you can calm down, I cured her, she will soon regain consciousness. Okay, let's go upstairs so not to interfere with the exam.
Next was the sixth fight, Nara Shikamaru against Tsuchi Kin, where the pineapple easily defeated my possible future concubine.
The next fight was Mito versus Kiba, it did not last long. Kiba could turn his ninken into his own clone, but oh-oh, what is one clone against fifty. So Kiba was stupidly kicked by the crowd.
And then came Hinata against Neji fight.
do your best
- Hinata, do your best, beat up that smug long-haired asshole. I believe in you. And don't be afraid if something happens I cure you. - I said teleporting to Hinata.
-Naruto-kun, I...
-Yes, don't worry, even if the impossible happens and you lose, I will still take you to my harem. Now cheer up and go.
The fight between the two Hyūga began, at first Neji began to rub in on Hinata's kindness and weakness, but she, looked at me, entered the fight without speaking. Hinata fought on equal terms with Neji, both of them used Jūken, but over time, the fact that Neji was older and more experienced began to make itself felt. They knocked the tenketsu off each other, but Neji was more successful at this, and when he was able to hit Hinata, near the heart, she fell to the ground, but still got up. And then, after a little exchange of words between them, Neji rushed at Hinata with the aim of killing her. Then I had to intervene, I transferred and Neji fell to the floor due to the fact that touched him and with the help of Doton I increased his weight fifteen times.
-Hare, long-haired(femform)! I will not let you kill my future wife. You can calm down already, you won, Hinata needs urgent medical attention.
I walked away from him, Kurenai, Guy and Kakashi also came down to us, to intervene and stop Neji, but I was quicker.
Approaching the barely standing Hinata, I said:
-You are great Hinata. Let me quickly heal you so that you can watch my fight. So, the moment, we will unblock all the tenketsu, we will cure all bruises and hematomas, we will heal all injuries of internal organs. Everything is ready. You are completely healthy.
-Thanks Naruto-kun.
-Do not worry, doing this for my future wife this is nothing. Let's go upstairs, otherwise your brother will drill a hole in us right now.
The ninth fight was Gaara vs. Lee. Gaara just stood there and deflected all Lee's attacks with his sand. Lee spun around him, trying to attack only using taijutsu, but did not succeed in doing so. Guy then allowed him to remove the weights, which increased Lee's speed by three times. And then he was able to strike Gaara, which, however, only angered Gaara and he began to attack with waves of sand, from which Lee could no longer dodge. And he had to open the Third Gate: The Gate of Life and the Fourth Gate: The Gate of Pain, and he began to deliver incredibly strong blows at an incredibly high speed, which knocked Gaara back, but Lee caught up with him in the air and continued beating him. When Lee opened the Fifth Gate: The Gate of Limit, he was able, at the cost of torn muscles, to deliver a crushing blow to Gaara, which forced Gaara to lie and not get up. Nevertheless, Lee also received huge damage from his own attacks, and although Gaara could not get up, he still retained the ability to control the sand, and therefore tried to kill Lee with it. But he was able to grab into the sand and crush only his left arm and leg, and when he wanted to completely envelop him in sand, Guy intervened.
When Gaara left, I went downstairs to check on Lee.
- Well, everything sucks, but he will live, and if I take care of him later, he can even remain a shinobi. He has half of his bones damaged and more than half of his muscles torn, and the worst thing is that several vertebrae have crumbled. Ordinary doctors will not be able to help much, so I will stabilize it for now, and after the exam, I will take it seriously, I will have to tinker with it.
-Thanks Naruto-kun. You are a worthy student of Kakashi. Is there anything I can do to help Lee?
- Yes, if you can bring him a lot of food, better meat and dairy products, I will have to remove fragments of bones and grow new ones at the expense of the body's reserve, and it will take a lot of energy to regenerate muscles, so after the operation he will be brutally hungry. I will provide him with other necessary vitamins and minerals by giving him special pills I have prepared. So now we will treat him, like this. Done, he can be transported to the hospital.
Lee was carried away. And the scoreboard flashed my name and Kabuto's name, so I stayed in the arena.
-Well, Kabuto, don't you want to give up?"
-Sorry, Naruto, but I went on the exam seven times, and I would like to stop this tradition and finally get a Chūnin vest.
-Kabuto, to whom are you pouring, I did an internship with you in the hospital, and I know that Iryō-nins of the B rank is automatically given chuunin. If you wanted a vest, you would have sported it long ago. really, you just want to collect more information for the hissing person we both know.
-You know about that too. There is reason I thought you were smart. Well, then you should know that I have little data on you.
-And you want them now. Well then break off, I will only use taijutsu. - I said and attacked him using the copied Style of the Gentle Fist, even without activating Hoshingan because besides the fact that I am a medic who knows the location of the tenketsu, I also saw them with the help of the Hoshingan, and it was not a labor for me to remember their location.
Since Kabuto is also a medic, he quickly recovered the knocked out tenketsu, but not faster than me blocking new ones, and when the number of blocked ones exceeded a certain limit, Kabuto's control deteriorated so much that he could no longer heal himself and I was able to completely neutralize him.
-Well, Kabuto, how do you like the data? Did you learn a lot? - I said as I cured Kabuto and helped him to stand on his feet. - I hope your creeping friend won't be too disappointed."
-O! Even though you used only taijutsu, but what kind. Superbly executed Jūken of the Hyūga. Over there, Neji's byakugan almost got out of his orbits now, from such a turn. Well Naruto, you know my little secrets, but for some reason I am not yet in the interrogation and inquiry department. - Kabuto asked as we entered a secluded corridor that had a staircase to the top of the arena.
- I just know a lot more than I say and show. I understand your reasons for disliking Konoha, but you're not a bad guy, so I won't bother you. Although your revenge should have been directed not at the village itself, but at certain individuals who love damp dungeons, like some kind of roots.
-Yes, you really know a lot. I greatly underestimated you. But you're right, I have good reasons not to love the village, and if I could, I would definitely get to certain individuals, but they are too deeply entrenched. Well, I'll go. And thanks for your understanding.
While I was talking with Kabuto, and while I was climbing upstairs, the last eleventh fight had already passed, Akimichi choji versus Kinuta Dosu, where the sound guy defeated the chubby in almost half a minute. Akimichi's techniques work effectively only when paired with the Nara Shadow Imitation, or against a large number of weak and slow opponents. Until a certain point, all Akimichi are weak enough in a one-on-one battle until they can use all the strongest clan techniques.
The winners of the qualifying round were gathered in front of the Hokage, who told us that the third stage of the exam would be held in a month, in the arena in the presence of a large number of spectators. Also, before letting us go, we pulled pieces of paper with numbers that identified the enemy and the sequence of battles. So it happened: I am against Neji, and the winner will fight with Temari, then Shikamaru against Mito, the next fight kankuro against Aburame Shino, Sasuke will fight with Gaara, and then if he is defeated, then with Dosu. We were also told that winning a fight does not mean that we will be given 100% chuunin. The Chūnin Vest can be obtained even by the loser.
After the qualifying round, I went to the hospital to treat Rock Lee, there I spent about three hours with him. Opening The Eight Inner Gates, of course, increases the user's strength, but the payback for this short-term enhancement is torn muscles, broken bones, and if you open all the Eight Gates, then life will be paid as prices for the power received for a short time, power which is comparable to the strength of the five Kage. But for me the opening of the Gate will be a good help, since I can neutralize almost all negative effects in one way or another, and when I will have a huge amount of HP, even the Eighth Gate opened for a short time will not be able to kill me.
In general, with this Gate there is the same problem as with senjutsu, they both can make the shinobi incredibly strong, but to use them, you must already be strong, otherwise you can die or turn to stone.
Therefore, after Guy came with a bunch of food to Lee's ward, and I finished the operation on a slightly emaciated patient and woke him up, I first gave him various medications and vitamins, which he washed down with a medicinal decoction, then I allowed Lee to pounce on the food. Guy watched with tears in his eyes as his beloved student was on the mend, right in front of him.
-Well, you're all right, Lee. But for a week, you have to take medication and eat well, and try not to strain too much this week. And you know Guy-san, maybe it will be a little ugly from my side but for healing Lee, I would like you to fulfill one of my requests.
-What are you saying Naruto-kun, you're not obliged to help, but you did help. And I understand that in this world you have to pay for everything, and I am ready to fulfill your request for the full restoration of Lee's health.
- Okay, I would like you to train me in Taijutsu, and preferably teach me how to open The Eight Inner Gates.
- Well, I don't even know, you are Kakashi's student. And though we are eternal rivals, but taking and teaching someone else's student is somehow not in the spirit of the Power of Youth.
-What a damn student of Kakashi. He didn't teach me anything at all, the only time he coached our team was, after we were attacked on a mission, by an S-rank renegade from the Mist. And do you know, what exactly he trained us? Tree-walking, something that I already knew when I was four. After that, I was the one who trained Mito and Sakura, because Kakashi is as good sensei as shuriken made of shit. So even if I start calling you Guy-sensei, Kakashi will not have the right to claim anything.
- Eh, I recognize Kakashi, he was always passive and lazy, I always had to bother him. But I could not even think that he would treat his students so conniving. Therefore, you know, I agree to teach you, and this will be another victory in our confrontation with Kakashi. Which will prove that I am a better sensei than him.
-Thanks Guy-sensei. By the way, when I was treating Lee, I understood the reason why he could not use ninjutsu and genjutsu.
- Why Naruto-kun? - Asked an interested Lee, looking up from the food.
-You Lee has an incredibly dense and tough Yang component of the chakra, and in order to control it, you need a lot of strong Yin component. And your hearth produces very little weak Yin component, which, when mixed with your incredibly strong Yang component, produces a chakra that is highly saturated with vitality, and which you practically cannot control.
-So the whole problem is with my hearth of chakra, which means that there is no way to fix it.
- Well, in general it is possible, but it will be quite dangerous. Working with a hearth and chakra channels is always dangerous in general. Possible to change your hearth and stimulate it to produce more Yin components, as well as put on seal in front the hearth, which will pull out the Yin component, which in total will lead to an improvement in the quality of Yin, and also make the hearth produce Yin more intensively. I, in principle, can also do this, but as I said, firstly, it is dangerous, and secondly, I will need a donor from whom I will take some cells from the hearth in order to change your hearth in the likeness of the donor. As a result of this operation, your chakra will become full, you will be able to manipulate it, and even the power of your taijutsu will increase, since it is based on The Eight Inner Gates, which in turn is based on the chakra. Plus, I can teach you Iryō-jutsu, which will help you to neutralize the negative effects of opening the Gates, and you will be able to keep yourself in the best possible condition all the time.
-Lee, if you agree to the operation that Naruto-kun can do, I can be donor for your hearth.
-Guy-sensei, I agree! I won't let you down, and together with Naruto-kun's help, I will become as great shinobi as you are Guy-sensei.
-Lee!
-Guy-sensei!
[TL: GAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!]
And tears and hugs began. After waiting a little, I said:
-Okay, if you agree, then I can carry out the operation even now, although it is dangerous, but rather brief. I just need a few cells from the Guy-sensei hearth, transplant them to the Lee hearth, and stimulate their growth and spread, as well as make them priority for regeneration, and then over time your chakra hearth will become almost identical and based on the chakra, you can even be called relatives. Well, I will also put the seal of the Yin collecting, Yin, by the way, can then be used in medical techniques, to treat and accelerate the healing of body injuries.
I grew a small couch out of a wood, on which Guy lay down, and began this operation, which lasted only twenty minutes, but was not very pleasant for test subje... I mean for patients. And then for another twenty minutes I lay out a seal based on the seal of Mito and Sasuke's juin, and a small star appeared on the hearth of the chakra. It seems to me, on a subconscious level, all the seals that I make take an angular shape, sometimes resembling stars, and sometimes arrows. Well, I just helped a person, and checked the putting up of the seal on a living shinobi. Now I can put something like that on myself.
And I think now I'll go and study Sasuke's seal better, more precisely Jugo's enzyme, which is released when the second level of the cursed seal is activated. Through sensory, I found Sasuke, and he was in the Hokage's office, along with Kakashi and Anko. I waited for him and when he came out, I agreed with him that I will come to him in his district tomorrow, and examined the seal better, and also checked whether everything was fine, and how my manipulations affected the integrity of the seal. By the way, they were discussing the cursed seal, so when Sasuke went home, Anko appeared from the Hokage Tower:
-Oh, look! This is the same pervert who climbed into my pockets and sniffed me when I fainted. - Anko came very close to me, and then went behind my back, hugged me, resting her chest and whispered in my ear - Well, how do you like my, as you said, sexy body? Liked? Don't you dream about it now in your wet dreams?
- You know, I really like it. I would have eaten it then. Barely restrained himself. The spoon was already ready, solid as a steel beam. But still eating alone, when the partner at the meal, unconscious, this is not according to the rules of etiquette. Yes, and we still, not so familiar to eat together like this. Although if you were mine, you would be my everyday dessert, which I would eat from morning to night, from morning to night.
-Oh, and the boy is ripe. And already wants the body of poor Anko, for dessert. But are you sure you can handle me baby? I'm insatiable, I can eat you myself.
- You don't have to lie to me. You see these eyes, - I turned on Hoshingan, - it was with their help that I removed your mark. They allow me to see the invisible, such as the internal structure of the seal and its contents, but they can also see through various objects and therefore see that someone has always been on a sexual diet, and has not tried anything but self-satisfaction, for me is not labor. And this, by the way, greatly surprises me. How can such a beautiful flower still not be plucked?
-So you are a pervert and look through everyone's clothes?! What a perversion! And the fact that I have not slept with anyone, such a pervert as you should not be concern at all. And I also wanted to thank him.
-Hey, why a pervert instantly. I look at beautiful girls, not guys. Anyway, which of us is sinless? And who, having the ability and capability to peep through clothing, would not use this ability? Yes, I repent, it is because of this that I became such a womanizer who wants a harem for himself.
-Harem? Pf! Who would want to go to a harem to a villain like you? All girls will simply run away from such a libertine, only when they see you.
- Well, actually, I already have a harem, and there are already two girls in it, plus, replenishment is planned soon.
-And what did they find in you, since they agreed to live with you?
-Well, I am strong, handsome, rich, kind, I can cook deliciously, skillful lover.
-Oh, don't make me laugh. How newly released genin can be powerful, much less rich. I found out that you and your team took a bunch of D-rank missions, and only one C-rank mission, and since you are an orphan, you could not have time to become rich. And what the hell with skillful lover, you're only thirteen years old.
-Is it possible that you are so interested in me that you took the trouble to find out information about me. I'm flattered. I will even promote you on the list.
-What the list?
-Well, on the list of candidates to join the harem. I think I'll put you right after Ino.
- Yes, you are self-confident, you have made a list for yourself. Well, go ahead and tell me who else is there and I'll laugh at your self-confidence.
-Well, the first is Hinata Hyuga, she loves me from the academy, and if not for her clan, she would have been in the harem long ago. The second is Sakura Haruno, I am also familiar with her from the academy, but she had a childhood crush on Uchiha Sasuke, which seems to have passed, but she still clings to her and does not want to admit that she has long fallen in love with me. Then Ino Yamanaka, with her the story is the same as with Sakura. Then here you go. Well, I won't tell you further, because it will take a very long time.
-Yes, you have bigger ego than Mount Hokage. And how dare you put, incomparable me, only on fourth place?
-Eh, how difficult it is to understand you women. Okay, I won't argue with you, I can, if you like, even cross you off the list. You know, after all, I can't marry girls who I am as disgusting as you may admit.
- I didn't say that you are disgusting to me.
-Well, what about the fact that, instead of gratitude for the help, in removing the Cursed Seal, as soon as you saw me, the first thing that I heard from you was accusations and it was not clear why. And I, by the way, found you in the Forest of Death, unconscious, wounded. I cured you, took you to a safe place, got rid of the mark on your neck. You spoke about the dangers of the Forest of Death, and you must understand that predators could come to the smell of blood and use your unconscious body as a meat dish.
-Yes you are right. Sorry. I got a little excited. It's just that I have a very complex character, it is because of him that I cannot find anyone for myself. And the fact that I am a student of the renegade Orochimaru played a role in this. That is why I have only one friend, Juhi kurenai, in the whole village, and she alone can tolerate my bad temper.
-Ah Yuhi kurenai, the beautiful-sensei of Hinata's team. She was on my list.
-Hey, she already has a man, she's dating Asuma. Although they are naive, they think that no one knows about their relationship. still walking and hiding.
-I also say that she was. And almost every dog knows about their relationship in Konoha, only they themselves do not know that others know. Well, okay, since you're not disgusted by me, then maybe you will allow me to invite you to dinner at my house, where I will try to seduce you and drag you into my harem?
-Okay, let me. I'll just look at your wealth.
I led her to my house through the woods, and she was toxic all the way, suggesting that I live in some kind of wooden hut and call it a rich house, and my imaginary harem consists of Left and Right. But as soon as my three-story mansion appeared from behind the trees, she immediately fell silent. And at dinner, when she ate from an emerald plate with an emerald fork, she was dumb like a fish, and I also looked at Mito and Karin, who also ate with us. Then there was dessert, which she took for herself three portions, and also silently ate it, and then said that she needed to go and I teleported her to the Hokage tower.
So the next day I fully researched Sasuke's seal and also analyzed Jugo's enzyme, and in «body modification», I added to my body the ability to synthesize the same enzyme that reacts to sen-chakra. And I spent only 15 SP and 200,000 PP on it. Now, I can be in the sen-mode all the time, whereas before, for this, clones collected sen-chakra for me, and as soon as I ran out of it, I dispelled one clone - the sen-chakra collector, and created another one to replace the previous one.
Guy-sensei and I agreed that he would start training me together with Lee, when he could already load himself. In the meantime, I took up a few things. First, I decided to master a few more mixed elements. To begin with, I decided to combine the chakra of the elements of Lightning and Wind, in the end I got the Release of Speed. So, when I created a reserve of this chakra in myself, I could move at supersonic speed and my reaction was appropriate to the speed of movement. But the supply of this chakra was spending pretty quickly.
In general, one might say, each element has two poles, the first pole is responsible for the defensive properties of the element, and the second for the attacking ones. There are, of course, other characteristic properties of the element, such as penetrating property, cutting property, temperature property, manipulative property. But the main thing, as for me, is the defensive and attacking ones. So the Earth has large defensive properties and rather small attacking properties, while Fire, on the contrary, has a great attacking potential, but of course it is possible to defend myself with fire, but it is difficult and ineffective. And now, if you mix Earth and Fire, focusing only on their attack, you get Yoton - the Lava Release. If you combine them, based on protection, then you get Koton - Steel Release. When Located in the chakra system, this elemental chakra allows the skin to be firm and durable, like the tungsten added to chakra conductive steel.
Now, having understood the principles of combining the elements, I was able to combine all possible combinations of two elements: from Water and Fire Futton - Boil Release, from the Earth and Lightning Bakuton - the Explosion Release, from the Earth and Wind Jiton - the Release of Magnetism, from Water and Lightning Ranton - Storm Release and from Wind and Fire Shakuton - Heat Release (Scorch Release). All these elements, I learned with the help of clones in just five days, but many of them are just a stronger analogue of one of the five elements. So, for example, the Release of Heat is, the same Fire is only more effective and deadly, as, for example, the Release of Storm is a stronger version of Lightning. Therefore, the most useful for me of all these elements was the Release of Magnetism. I could, like Gaara, manage a sufficiently large amount of ordinary sand, but if I change ordinary sand, say for iron, then the volume of material that I can manipulate decreases. But I think I'm just not used to using Jiton yet, and when I get used to it, I can increase the amount of iron sand.
Secondly, I created three clones from chakra-flesh and sent them with scrolls to the Land of Iron, so that they should get Tungsten, Nickel and Chromium, which gives chakra-conducting steel its properties. From these metals, I want to make for myself armor.
Thirdly, I created an amulet for myself, into which I could seal the structured chakra, that is, my clones. This amulet was for me the next step in fuinjutsu, it was most similar to the seal of Mito. Since the amulet created earlier could only store chakra, and if I tried to push a clone there, it was just chakra when unsealed. This amulet was needed to prepare to repel the attack on the village by Orochimaru and the Village of Sound with the Village of Sand. I will seal the clones there, and on the day of the attack, I will free them all and shove them around the village. They will be able to help in repelling the attack and will try to stun everyone and not kill, as well as I give them scrolls to store living people into which they will shove in the most zealous and bloodthirsty, whom I will kill myself later in order to get SP.
So, when the time came for training with Guy, I devoted almost the whole day to them, but this did not prevent me from leaving clones for training Mito, Sakura and Karin, I taught physical activity and Iryō-jutsu according to the same program, which for Karin with her chakra was very relevant. Mito tried to complete the Rasengan, and when she was able to, the clones showed her further options for the development of this technique, as well as increasing the size of the Rasengan, as well as giving it elemental properties. And Mito, with the help of the clones, begun to do all at the same time.
By the way, I can, on my own, give the Rasengan the properties of mixed elements. And also with the help of two more clones, I gave the Rasengan the properties of the Dust Release, and when I experienced such a Rasengan in the Valley, then in a moment, a huge sphere formed and disappeared, and then within a radius of one hundred meters there was just a round smooth crater, and moreover it was the effect of the simplest Rasengan. This Rasengan is too destructive, and therefore I only used it by clones. The most useful Rasengan from the mixed elements turned out to be the Ranton - Storm Release. It turned out that something like Cero, from a blue sparkling sphere, burst out a stream similar to a thick laser or plasma beam. And although the technique was powerful, it did not cause such large-scale destruction, it was rather focused and therefore I can use it myself, without fear of dying and instantly to turning into dust from my own technique. It turned out such a powerful plasma or laser cutter, that's how I called this technique Ranton: Kesshō kattā - Storm Release: Plasma Cutter. The rest of the mixed elements led mainly to large-scale destruction, in varying degrees of efficiency, in this field of course champion was Bakuton - the Explosion Release.
[TR: Japanese have no word for plasma author don't wanted use "Purazuma" and instead he used Kesshō which means plasma(blood). Crystal and plasma have same Rōmaji and if you google it's probably that if you type Kesshō it will translate as crystal. But if translate plasma in to Japanese you will see they have different hieroglyphs. Technique can be translate as well as 'Blood cutter" and as "Crystal cutter" warning translator have Knowledge of japan on level of weeaboo]
