**************

I entered the class with Naruto, Hinata, and Ino in tow. We sat near the back and waited for Iruka to enter. Today, we were going to meet with our Jounin Sensei and begin our Genin career.

Iruka entered not long after and started with an opening speech. "I am proud of all of you for being able to graduate. I know the exams were a lot harder than the previous years but be assured that Tsunade-Sama did it for your own good. Anyone who graduated under these conditions will have a better future."

True, there were a lot fewer people who were able to graduate. They were mostly cannon fodders but still, now that graduation requirements were a lot harder, those who were able to graduate were better than the small fries.

Teams were the same, the same as in I don't know the first 6. Though, there were a few surprises due to my past actions.

"Team 7." Iruka started, "Koushin, Uzumaki Naruto, Hyuuga Hinata."

"Yes!" Naruto and Hinata shouted at the same time and hugged, while Ino and I were sad. I hugged her too.

"It is fine. Some other team needs you to lead them." I whispered to her ears.

"Hmm." She nodded with a blush.

"Team 8, Inuzuka Kiba, Aburame Shino, Haruno Sakura."

"Team 10, Akimichi Chouji, Nara Shikamaru and Yamanaka Ino."

"My best wishes for your new career, and remember the will of fire!" With it, he left and Jounin Sensei came to pick their students. Except ours.

"So, who is our Sensei?" Asked Naruto.

"Didn't you listen to Iruka Sensei? It is Kakashi Sensei?" I said with a sigh.

"Is he good?" Naruto asked.

"Is he good?" I asked with exaggerated shock. "Graduated from the academy at the age of five, became a Chunin at 6 and Jounin at 11. Tell me if he is good."

"Wow! He is a legend!" Naruto exclaimed.

"I heard of him from Father. He is known as Kakashi of the Sharingan or Copy Ninja Kakashi." Hinata added.

"Sharingan? What is that?" Naruto asked.

"You are truly an idiot, Naruto." I sighed. "Hinata you deal with your boyfriend."

"Sharingan is one of the three…" She started to explain while we waited. Kakashi was the last person with Sharingan in Konoha. I killed Sasuke, which kinda caused Itachi to kill Danzo. How tricky fate is sometimes.

After a while, Kakashi entered through the gate while the three of us were working on Fuinjutsu. Naruto was a talent despite being an idiot, and Hinata didn't like fighting so Healing Jutsu and Fuinjutsu were her cup of tea.

When Kakashi entered and saw us he said, "My first impression is… I like you!"

"You are late," Naruto shouted.

"Now, now. A cute girl stopped me, so I danced."

"Liar!" Naruto shouted.

"Was she hot?" I asked.

"She was."

"Nice."

"You might be my favorite student." Kakashi eye-smiled as he flickered to the roof. We followed.

"Now, let's introduce ourselves."

"Why don't you start first, Sensei?" I asked.

"Hmm, sure." He said, "I'm Hatake Kakashi. Things I like and things I hate… I don't feel like telling you that. My dreams for the future… never really thought about it. As for my hobbies… I have lots of hobbies. Now you, blondie."

"Which one?" Naruto asked.

"You, with the whiskers." Kakashi sighed.

"I'm Naruto Uzumaki. I like Hinata-Chan, Koushin, Grandma Tsunade, Ino, and ramen, and I really like to eat ramen with my friends! I hate waiting for ramen after water is poured. My dream is to be Hokage, the strongest Shinobi in the village, and when I do, I will bring back Sasuke's brother to the village to make him apologize."

"Okay, good. Next."

"My name is Hyuuga Hinata. My dream is to help Naruto become Hokage and help the village. I don't like fighting, so I want to master Fuinjutsu and Healing Jutsu. I also like spending time with Naruto, Koushin and Ino. I also love my family, especially my sister."

"You." Kakashi pointed at me.

"Hmm, never thought before. Now that I think of it, I should have. Alright, My name is Koushin, no last name. My dream is to become strong enough to prevent anyone from taking away people I care about, and destroy those even thinking of it. I like working out and getting stronger, I also like spending time with my friends. I used to think I should work out all the time so I could become stronger as soon as possible, but I realized I should spend time with my friends as much as I can.

Duty is important for sure, but those who ignore their friends for power and duty are thrash."

Kakashi looked at me shocked for a full minute. Just the effect I wanted. I could quote Obito word by word but implying the same meaning with different words would have a better effect and less suspicion.

"Sensei, are you okay?" Hinata asked when she saw he was frozen.

"Yeah, sorry. Now, tomorrow at 7 in the morning we will meet in Training Ground 7 for your final exam." Kakashi said while looking cold again.

"What do you mean final exam? Haven't we already passed the exam phase?" Naruto asked.

"Graduating was just the first phase. If you don't pass the exam tomorrow, you will be sent back to the academy."

"That can't be!" Naruto cried.

"Oh, and come without eating, or you might throw up." With it, he vanished.

"What are we going to do? I don't want to go back to the academy." Naruto started to panic.

"Cool down, little brother!" I pulled his collar to make him sit. "We three are the best in the class, if we can't pass, no one can. Just calm down."

"Oh right." Naruto sighed in relief. "All right! We will ace the exam tomorrow!"

"Sure we will," I smirked.

***

Seven in the morning, three of us were standing in front of the training ground. I knew Kakashi would be late, and we had to eat, but I just let it be. Hell, even I didn't eat, welp, I don't need to eat.

After some hours, Kakashi arrived.

"You are LATE!" Naruto shouted.

"Now, now. A black cat crossed my path, so I had to take a detour." Kakashi said goofily.

"LIAR!" Naruto shouted.

"Was neko-chan cute?" I asked.

"It was okay." Kakashi smiled back.

"Anyway, this clock is set to 12:00. Before noon, you have to take these two bells from me. Otherwise, you will not be able to eat lunch. I will tie you to logs over there and eat in front of you."

"We were tricked!" Naruto cried.

"We sure did." I sighed.

"Sensei, there are two bells." Hinata asked.

"Well, two of you will pass and the third will fail and return to the academy." Kakashi smiled as he explained. "It can be one of you or all of you."

"Use your Shuriken and Kunai. Attack me with intent to kill, or you will not be able to take them!"

No one complained this time, because unlike the original, there was no useless pinkett, nor stupid Naruto. Welp, overly stupid.

"You will start when I say Go."

"Go!"
