Walking out of the Hokage's Office, a Konoha Chuunin looked up to see another Shinobi approaching, probably heading to report to the Hokage. 'And I thought I was late…' The Chuunin wondered. 'But I guess us Shinobi work at any time…' Squinting his eyes slightly, the Chuunin recognised the other and immediately bowed with deep respect. "Uchiha Sasuke-sama!!"

Sasuke nodded his head once and walked past the Chuunin, not really caring who the individual was. He opened the door to Tsunade's office and held back the snarl he knew would try to penetrate his neutral expression. This office always gave him the feeling of just being one of the many soldiers in Konoha.

"Tell me everything." Came the voice of Tsunade, who was drinking on the job. She looked like she had a long day; if the twitching of her eyes were any indication or the trembling of the bottle of sake in her right hand.

Sasuke narrowed his eyes and then fidgeted somewhat… uncomfortably. "Well, he's uncontrollable." He then paused, as if in deep thought. "The best way to describe it, would be…"

Tsunade looked bored and slightly drunk. Sasuke never was one to hesitate with reporting. She was looking forward to a fast one, since Sasuke was the last Shinobi who had to fill in the mission report, before she could get to catching some sleep.

"If he decides to attack Konoha, our village would be in grave danger. He wouldn't be able to defeat every Shinobi here, of course… but, he would come close. Very close" Sasuke surmised. "Our mission went well, although we did take a pretty long time." He let out a bit less indifferently than usual.

Tsunade rolled her eyes. "Two months. You two are possibly the strongest Shinobi in the world, and you took two whole months to finish something Naruto came up with? Tell me, is Whirlpool still intact?" The blonde asked as she finished the bottle and set it down unsteady on the desk before her.

Eying the moving bottle, Sasuke nodded his head. "Barely… But it's solved."

"Finally… Naruto's back and fully prepared to take on the role of Konoha Shinobi again, I assume?" Tsunade rested in her seat and took a look beyond Sasuke, at all the paintings in the room.

Sasuke nodded his head. "And looking forward to it, too. What are your plans?"

"I had a meeting with all the teachers of the Ninja Academy. There are more than ten Genin Candidates who failed their Genin Test. Several who have failed them a year ago as well. Two, especially, caught my interest. I was thinking of putting them under Naruto's care." Tsunade said. "These two are far more talented than your average Academy Student. It's a tradition that Konoha pumps out Genin Teams with three Genin and one Jounin Instructor, but we've had exceptions. Orochimaru-"

Sasuke snarled.

"-had only one Genin, which was Mitarashi Anko. I've taught Shizune in my younger days and there are many more examples. I want Naruto to try and take two Genin, instead of three."

Understanding, the Uchiha continued. "Who do you have in mind?"

"Hanzai Sensou and Kanban Musume. Two little brats who cause daily havoc at the Academy." The Hokage chuckled shortly. "I think they'll give Naruto a hard time, or at least I hope so."

Sasuke racked his brains, but simply stared. "I've never heard of them. You think they're talented?"

"I don't know. They score high on all the tests, but that's because they've been in the Academy far longer than necessary. I've already told Naruto to go and fetch those two first thing tomorrow morning." She replied altogether with a shrug. "These two kids, Sensou and Musume, are a real handful."

Sasuke grinned. "This might become a bit interesting."

Walking the Road
Chapter 11

- A Stop Sign

--

"Quiet down, everyone!!"

Udon sighed as his class lowered their daily noises. "Today all of you will be having the Hokage Test!!"

"AGAIN?!" The entire class yelled.

Udon snorted, pushing his glasses up a bit. "Heh, with a response like that, a teacher would think his class would excel!! But alas, a teacher is faced with constant disappointment…" He pouted, before he glared at his class. "Get ready!!"

As Udon's assistant, a rookie Chuunin, started handing out papers, the door to the classroom opened, to reveal a blonde Jounin wearing sunglasses. And he was missing an arm… Udon frowned, not knowing any blonde Jounin with only one arm.. Or for that matter, noticing the Jounin's other arm, one with a metallic arm "Uh, can I help you, …?"

The Jounin grinned. "Long time, no see, Udon-kun!"

Udon looked puzzled. "Huh?"

"Ah, you don't remember me, huh? Well, time for some re-introductions, then! My name is Uzumaki Naruto!" The Jounin announced as he held out his hand to Udon.

"N-Naruto-onii-chan!!" The teacher yelled enthusiastically, quickly shaking the blonde's hand. 'W-what happened to his arm?'

The entire class looked shocked at how their teacher greeted the Jounin. "Well, I came to relieve you of two of your students, Udon-kun!" He turned towards all the seated students. "Sensou-kun, Musume-chan, please step forward!" He yelled as he also gave Udon a paper, signed by the Hokage.

Naruto watched as a young boy and girl approached him. He grinned. Hanzai Sensou was a real punk, with dark red hair and calculating eyes, Naruto could tell this kid was a troublemaker. Compared to him, the younger Sasuke was a boy scout. Kanban Musume was a real beauty. She had long, dark blue hair, held in a long ponytail, which rested on her left shoulder and trailed down over her chest. Like Sensou, though, she had quite the mean lookers.

The Jinchuuriki chuckled inwardly. 'Just wait until they see my eyes…'

"Sensou-kun, Musume-chan…" Udon started. "You've been ordered by the Hokage to stay with Naruto-sama for this day. I can't tell you why, but you'd do well to obey." Udon said as he was reading the paper written by Tsunade and sending a vicious glare to the two kids, who didn't look intimidated at all.

--

"Well, this is a first." Sensou grumbled, before taking a glance at Musume. "We definitely don't stand a chance now. Even if he HAS only one arm…" Sensou wore a simple black T-shirt and dark red shorts, finished with dark red shoes. He wore no socks. He was as skinny as Naruto was when he was a kid.

Musume glared at him, before facing Naruto. "Yeah, so… Whose father are you?" The girl, Musume, was taller than Sensou. She gave the impression of being a lady, but Naruto could tell she was more troublesome than Shikamaru could utter the damn word. She wore a dark purple dress… But the dress allowed her to move completely freely, as it showed more skin than it should… She finished her get-up with grey shoes.

Staring the two down through his sunglasses, the blonde Jounin couldn't help but letting out a chuckle. "Hm, it seems you've had your fair share of beatings. But that's not why I'm here, now."

Musume and Sensou didn't understand and threw him a question mark.

"I'm supposed to be testing you on whether you're ready to become Genin or not, but… I think we can work something out!" Naruto smiled. "So… congratulations on becoming Genin. Let's go to the Hokage's Office and grab a Mission or three!"

"…"

"Hurry up! We don't have all day! Besides, I'm sure you two could use the money?" He yelled over his shoulder, already moving in the direction of the Hokage Tower.

"… Money?" They asked each other.

"Heh, just kidding, just kidding…" Naruto said as he looked over his shoulder. "But, that's exactly what we'll be doing tomorrow. Right now, we're going to a Training Field." Naruto turned and watched their reactions.

"Tcheh, we aren't allowed to set foot on a training field." Sensou grumbled. "We always get kicked off."

"We? Who's we?" Naruto questioned with a grin.

Musume rolled her eyes. "Don't act as if you don't know. I can guess you've been sent by the higher-ups to keep us on a tighter leash. The Academy couldn't handle us anymore, is that it?"

The blonde Jounin scratched the back of his head as he tried to dodge Musume's glare. "Well, Hokage-sama did give me reports on you two, but… I didn't have time to read through it."

Sensou and Musume's eyes widened. "You're serious?" Sensou asked. "We always get into fights… Musume and me. It's not like we can help it, though."

Naruto shrugged. "Heh, I know how that feels… Anyway, just follow me. If anyone tries to kick you off a field, I'll kick them off of it!"

"What can you do with only ONE arm, though?" Musume whispered, but Naruto heard and grinned.

The duo followed the blonde Jounin through the village as he started introductions. "Well, we're going to take our time getting to the training field, so we can get to know one another. Tell me, who are you two?"

Musume and Sensou looked at each other, before facing the back of Naruto again. "Is this for real?" They both let out. "You expect us to believe you're pulling us out of class, taking us to a training field and make us Genin? And now this cheesy crap of telling you all about ourselves?"

Naruto nodded his head, not turning around. "Yup! Hokage-sama did tell me to test you two first, but… I didn't feel like it. I liked you two from the moment I first saw you. You'll do just fine."

Sensou sighed, dropping his head. "Tcheh… My name is Hanzai Sensou. I can safely say I am the most hated guy in school. I bully. I am the biggest, toughest and smartest bully there is! Sometimes, it takes two Chuunin to keep me quiet." He boasted. "Of course, we don't fight…" he trailed off. "And… well, what do you want to know?"

Naruto turned his head slightly. "What do you do all day, Sensou-kun?"

'That's none of his business!' Sensou frowned. "Nothing much."

"Ok… That's fine, then. What do you hate, or like?"

Sensou glared at Naruto's back. "I don't really hate or like anything…"

Naruto nodded his head. "I see… What about you, Musume-chan?"

"Well, like Sensou said, except, I am the most hated GIRL in school… I hate annoying kids and I like… hitting them, I guess. Other than that, I think it's none of your business, ….? Ah, I forgot your name." She faked a bit of innocence and blinked at Naruto's back.

"Uzumaki Naruto. And, I feel like copying your style. You don't need to know anything about me, either." He grinned. "But from now on, we are a team. Some say it's better to not get too attached to each other and it seems we won't be having a problem with that, ey?"

Naruto's team snorted. "A team?"

"Yes. We will be moving out of Konoha a lot, as ordered by the Hokage. Tomorrow, we'll probably have a low D-Ranked mission and probably, this entire week. But after that… Maybe Grass Village, or something?"

"Really?!" Naruto grinned at the enthusiasm. "Wow, finally, we can see something else for a change!" Sensou yelled, facing Musume.

Musume nodded her head rapidly, turning towards Sensou as well. "No kidding! I've grown tired of Konoha already when I was three days old!"

'Three days old? Who is she kidding?' Naruto rolled his eyes. "Anyway, we're here. Now, why don't you tell me about your Techniques. What do you know?"

Sensou grinned wickedly, while Musume hung her head low, but it was twitching too. Naruto could say almost for sure it was anticipation to show off…

"Heh, want me to show you, sensei?" Naruto frowned at blinding grin on Sensou's face. The way he said 'sensei' was a bit too sarcastic for his taste, but he shrugged, curious about this sudden change in his soon-to-be student.

"Sure…"

"Ka…." He chuckled wildly as he stared at Naruto. "BOOM!!"

Naruto looked mildly impressed as the air around him exploded.

Sighing as she stared at the smoke cloud around Naruto, Musume whipped her head towards Sensou with definite anger on her face. "We're going to be in trouble because of this… again, Sensou!" She whined. "You always do this!" She turned back to where Naruto was standing. "I wonder if he's okay…"

"Well, this is the first time I did this to a Jounin and since Chuunin and even Genin can survive this, he should be fine. Let's see!" He responded, his eyes never leaving the spot Naruto was in. As the smoke started to clear, Naruto was still standing there, completely unharmed.

"W-what!?" Both Sensou and Musume screamed. 'That's impossible!' Sensou thought. 'He's… totally ok?!'

"Alright…" Naruto laughed. "That was pretty impressive. But very weak, as well. Your Control has to be excellent to be able to do that… but the power is almost non-existent." Naruto tilted his head as he focused on Musume. "How about you? Come on; attack me with your best attack."

Disregarding her current shock of receiving no damage at all from Sensou's attack, Musume bit her bottom lip and tilted her head. "You want to die that badly, sensei?" The Elite Jounin was impressed at how sweet and innocent Musume sounded just now, but he simply responded with a shrug and a smile.

"Dokon, Chakra Senbon!" Musume yelled as Chakra appeared between her fingers and was slowly taking shape. Taking a closer look, it seemed like shining needles were appearing between her fingers.

Sensou's eyes widened. "Mu-Musume!! You're using that!?"

Naruto looked intrigued as Musume shot out Chakra Needles from her hands towards him and simply let himself be penetrated by all of them. Musume panted a bit as she watched the result. "Y-you'll be needing an antidote from the hospital for that one, but don't worry… it's… it's only lethal if you leave it as it is for more than half a day." She said in between pants, gritting her teeth to keep from falling on one of her knees.

The Chakra needles disappeared completely while they were still penetrating him, but he had attention only for the panting girl in front of him. "This is no good at all."

"Ah! We have plenty of time to fix it!" Musume yelled, taking Naruto's response as worry for his own condition.

"That's not what I meant!" Naruto glared. "First off, poison doesn't work on me. Period. Second, you have to make sure your poisonous Chakra is more powerful than this weak-ass… needle technique. Third, why the hell are you so tired?!"

Sensou and Musume looked completely stupefied.

An eerie silence washed over the Training Field.

"Y-You used your most powerful attack…" Sensou stammered. "Everyone fears your Poisonous Needle attack… But this guy… It's nothing to him…"

Musume nodded her head. "And your Explosive Chakra… He wasn't even injured a tiny little bit! He's completely unharmed… So… this is a Jounin."

Naruto grinned.

FLASHBACK

"So... Has anything interesting happened while I was away?"

"Nothing interesting, no."

"Hm. So, how are all my old subordinates doing?"

"… You have a lot of those."

"Yeah, so how are they?"

Sasuke gazed at his blonde companion with a bored look. "I don't know, never worked with them and I've never talked to them." The Uchiha didn't know what to expect when he heard he was going on a mission with Naruto. It had been quite some time since he went on a mission with anyone, as he usually went on solo-missions.

He preferred to go alone.

He preferred the silence.

But he was interested. Naruto was probably the only Shinobi who could hold his own against him. No one in Konoha dared to fight against him. But Naruto…

Naruto would kick his ass with a grin plastered on his face. Sasuke sighed. He wasn't the strongest Shinobi, but at least he killed Itachi.

"You ever used the Keppan again?"

Sasuke nodded his head. "Zetsu."

Naruto smiled shortly. "Ah, I imagine him being quite the opponent."

"He gave me almost as much trouble as my brother gave me… Almost." Sasuke grinned. "One less to worry about."

"So how are the others? You know, Shikamaru, Kiba, Shino, Chouji?"

Sasuke sighed. This was the part he hated the most. He had to talk now. A lot.

"Well, they all have their own teams. Most of them already have Chuunin as subordinates. Sakura and I are the only ones with Genin. Shikamaru has become a Special Jounin and Ino has followed up on Morino Ibiki, who has passed away a few months ago. Neji has become a special guard of the head of the Hyuga Clan; Hyuga Hinata. Kiba, Chouji, Shino, Lee and Ten-Ten have their own squads."

"You know anything about my old ANBU Team? Ami, Hanabi and Anko, perhaps?"

Sasuke shrugged. "They're still in ANBU, but I don't know their ranks."

Suddenly, a body dropped to the ground before them.

They both looked at the body and then they looked at each other. "You haven't changed, still a show-off, huh?"

Naruto chuckled. "Hey, he was asking for it. He didn't even tell us he was watching us. So rude…"

Sasuke rolled his eyes as he walked towards the downed Shinobi. "I didn't see you throw the Kunai, though…" Sasuke was searching the body for the Kunai, but saw that the wound in the chest didn't have a weapon in it. "Kaze no Shuriken, eh? I've seen it used before, by Sabaku no Temari."

"Well, you didn't see it because you didn't have your Sharingan activated, bastard. Otherwise you would have seen my left arm in action."

"He's from Sound. What's he doing here? We're still in Fire Country." Sasuke said as he grabbed the stranger's Kunai and put them in his own Kunai holster. "Well, he's worth nothing if he got killed so easily."

Naruto shook his head. "And I didn't even MEAN to kill him…"

"Idiot, Kaze no Shuriken goes through the body. This person's resistance just wasn't built for attacks like yours."

"Well, it doesn't matter. I hate Sound-nin, let's just get rid of the body." Naruto spat. "We've got more important places to be, after all."

Sasuke nodded his head. "I just hope this doesn't mean anything…" He said as he burned the body with a Katon Technique.

END FLASHBACK

--

"So, do you have any… role models? Anyone you look up to in Konoha?" Naruto asked as they were sitting on the ground, in the middle of a training field.

Sensou looked up at the sky, in deep thought. "Well… I guess Uchiha Sasuke-sama. He's famous in Konoha and I've seen him once! He looks totally badass!"

"Even though she doesn't look scary or anything, I guess I look up to Haruno Sakura-sama." Musume murmured. "She's well known in Konoha, after all. There's a rumour about her stating she owns this Genjutsu that traps you… for good…"

The two fresh Genin turned towards Naruto as he chuckled. "What a coincidence… Those two are my old teammates from the time I was Genin. I feel so proud that they're this famous!"

"But, you are not. Aren't you angry at that?" The dark red-haired boy grinned. "I mean, their names alone are enough to send enemies running."

Naruto shrugged. "Not really." He then grinned at them. "Because I'm stronger than both of them!"

Sensou and Musume looked at each other, silence overruling them, before both burst out laughing. "Yeah right, sensei!!" They yelled in between laughs.

Naruto rolled his eyes.

"I mean! You have only one arm! And you look weak, too!" Musume shouted.

"And you act so ridiculous!!" Sensou added.

"Hm, how about we go and visit Sakura and Sasuke, then? They'll tell you." The Jounin stopped walking as he tried to sense where the two were at the moment.

They both stopped laughing. "You can take us to see them? For real?" Musume asked.

"Awesome! I can shake hands with Sasuke-sama!" Sensou gloated. "Yea-heah!"

Naruto sighed. "Don't expect too much. Sasuke's pretty much a bastard and Sakura's really busy these days, so… Let's go!"

--

"H-Hokage-sama!!"

Naruto frowned at the bowing Sensou and Musume. 'You're kidding me… All of a sudden they know how to show respect?' Naruto thought. "Tsunade-sama, these two have passed as Genin." He bowed, looked up and grinned. "They'll be perfect."

'I guess the idiot is improving… He was so cold a few months ago…' Tsunade sighed. "Naruto, you didn't test them at all, huh?"

Sensou and Musume looked nervous as Tsunade looked angry. Naruto only rolled his eyes. "They'll be good. If you ask me, they can probably beat their Academy Instructor no problem." Unbeknownst to him, Sensou and Musume nodded their heads, agreeing with him.

"Well, if you say so…" The Fifth said as she stared at the absence of Naruto's left arm. "Your names are…"

"Hanzai Sensou, Hokage-sama!" The boy bowed.

"Kanban Musume, Hokage-sama!" The girl bowed.

"Yes, Sensou and Musume. You two will follow Uzumaki Naruto's orders from this day forward. You won't be needing to attend the Ninja Academy again as you have truly become Konoha Genin now."

The door the Office suddenly opened to reveal one Haruno Sakura, holding a large amount of reports, probably from the hospital. "Hokage-sama, Naruto-kun!" The pink-haired Jounin greeted. She caught sight of the two children, but remained silent.

"Perhaps you've seen her before, but this is Haruno Sakura." Tsunade said. "Sakura, these Genin are Hanzai Sensou and Kanban Musume. They will be Naruto's Genin."

Sakura nodded her head. "Nice to meet you!" The pink-haired woman greeted as she set down a pile of papers on Tsunade's desk, ignoring the glare that came with it.

"Sakura-sama!" Musume and Sensou bowed. "I'm sorry for asking you a question so suddenly, but… Naruto-sensei and you were… teammates?"

Sakura nodded her head. "Yes, we were! You two are very lucky to have him as your sensei."

"Why?" Tsunade smirked at Sensou, who didn't seem to believe Sakura and showed her just how 'lucky' they felt. "He only has one arm! Any other Jounin would be better than him!!"

Sakura giggled and Naruto sighed. "You'll see." Sakura said.

--

"What is it? I'm busy." The wind carried a cold voice to their ears. The Uchiha didn't turn around as he was watching his Genin team sparring with one another. He knew without turning around it was Sakura, Naruto and two kids he's never sensed before. Probably Naruto's new Genin.

"U-Uchiha Sasuke-sama!!" Sensou and Musume yelled, causing Sasuke's right eye to twitch.

Sakura giggled as the two kids ran towards him, hoping to be able to shake his hands. "Sasuke-kun's become pretty famous." She let out as she looked at Naruto.

Naruto nodded his head. "The same could be said about you."

Sakura shrugged. "We've grown a lot. It's about time you make a name for yourself in Konoha. I mean, you're better known outside of Konoha than inside. Only the older generations look up to you. Even more than they look up to us. During your absence, a lot has changed here."

Naruto shrugged in return. "It doesn't matter. I'll make my Genin make a name for themselves, and that'll be enough."

Sakura and Naruto both stopped at Naruto's side, where Musume and Sensou were also standing. "Yo, teme…" Naruto started. "How about a small spar?"

Sasuke turned around and stared at Naruto. Sakura could tell he was… extremely intrigued. It was very rare to see Sasuke even a tiny bit intrigued. "Our last mission… we didn't get to see each other fight that much. I was wondering about this…" Sasuke grinned and turned to his three Genin. "Team!" The three Genin stopped with what they were doing and were walking towards their sensei.

"Introduce yourselves. This is Uzumaki Naruto… and his team." Sasuke ordered.

"I am Inuzuka Hanatarou." A young boy with red stripes on his cheeks bowed.

"Inuzuka Iori." A young girl, looking almost the exact same as the previous boy, bowed.

"Aburame Shiruko." A boy with completely black eyes, bowed shortly.

"Ah, I'm Hanzai Sensou." The boy grinned wickedly at them, as if stating he would kick all three of their asses easily.

"Kanban Musume." She glared at the trio.

"Students, I will now spar with Naruto. You will observe and learn from this fight." Everyone's eyes widened, except those of Sasuke, Sakura and Naruto.

Naruto and Sasuke both started walking towards the centre of Sasuke's Training Field. "Quite a varying training ground." Naruto noted. "Smart."

Sasuke nodded his head. "My team needs to learn in any environment." His Sharingan was already on. He was excited, alright.

"Your Sharingan… It looks even more intimidating than before." Naruto said.

"What happened to your eyes? Why are you wearing glasses?" His Sharingan eyes were already trying to see beyond the glasses, but unfortunately, his Sharingan was no Byakugan.

"I'm trying something new. Tsunade-sama's inventions." He said as he pointed towards his own glasses.

Sasuke shook his head. "Let's start this, then." His Sharingan already saw how Naruto was summoning his left arm into existence.

Before anyone could blink, Sasuke was behind Naruto, but was blown away instantly by an invisible force. Unharmed, Sasuke landed on his feet several meters behind Naruto. "Automatic and instant?" His Sharingan told him.

Naruto chuckled and turned around. "Fuuton, Renkuudan!"

Sasuke easily dodged the Wind Blast that blew away several trees, causing the present Genin to stare open-mouthed at the destruction. As the Uchiha landed again, he had again, observed with his Sharingan. "No handseals, or so it seemed. No delay, either. You're interesting to face."

Before Sasuke could do anything, he was grabbed from behind, only to puff away and leave a small stone in its place. "Kawarimi no Jutsu." Naruto whispered as Sasuke appeared above him, handseals finished.

'Strange… I was attacked from behind, but Naruto has not moved…' The Uchiha thought in mid-air.

"Katon, Ryuuka no Jutsu!!" But the technique went completely different. Usually, Sasuke would release a wave of Fire from his mouth, but this time, he got surrounded by fire and the technique attacked himself. 'W-What?!'

"Ah, courtesy of my left arm." Naruto explained. "Perhaps using Fire Techniques isn't advisable…" The blonde let out an innocent laugh.

The Uchiha nodded his head, understanding. 'His left arm is completely Chakra and has no limits. He surrounded me with Wind-infused Chakra at the moment I released my Fire Technique. I should have been able to foresee it with my Sharingan, but… He used a Time and Space Technique at the same time… He's good.'

The Genin didn't know what happened at all. All they saw was that Sasuke took the first hit in this battle. His clothes were already a bit burned.

"Naruto-sensei… hasn't even moved from his spot yet." Sensou said.

Naruto then lifted his right arm up, his metal arm, and filled it with Chakra. Sasuke's eyes widened as the arm grew a bit in size, but also... The pieces seemed to be independent from one another. "I see. Ingenious. It's reach… is unlimited as well?"

The blonde shook his head. "No, but close." He commented as he rammed his right arm into the ground.

A split second later, Sasuke jumped from his position to avoid getting grabbed from underground by Naruto's metal hand. He performed handseals in mid-air. "Raiton, Rakurai no Jutsu!"

Naruto, jumped aside, evading Sasuke's Thunder Bolt, revealing that his right arm was now gone as well. Sasuke's eyes widened at this. 'S-Shit! So that's it!! His arms are all over the place… And with my Sharingan… I can't see his right arm!' At that moment, a piece of metal shot out of the ground and collided with Sasuke's stomach. Looking at the piece, Sasuke realized it was Naruto's fist.

The Genin didn't understand at all. The Jounin Sasuke was facing had no arms?

Sakura looked amazed as well. "He's become the most feared opponent of everyone."

Sasuke landed on the ground, not really having felt the blow to his stomach. His Lightning attack has soured past Naruto into the ground, where smoke was now coming out. "Interesting, but in this form, you can't do any Jutsu… And It seems I can't use the Sharingan's Space Technique against you…" He said.

Naruto's eyes widened in surprise. "How…?!"

Sasuke grinned. "My Sharingan tells me what's useless to use in battle… Your body is surrounded by a Time/Space Defense. It's almost impossible to hit you. But my Sharingan works similarly."

Naruto nodded his head, still surprised. "Your Sharingan can tell you that much? Then, how about this…?"

Sasuke gritted his teeth as he had to move in extreme speed to dodge Naruto's next attack. The viewers watched as Naruto created a crater where Sasuke previously stood in less than a second. "You've become really fast, Sasuke."

"Hiraishin… This is my first time facing it… What speed…" Sasuke let out as he panted a bit.

Naruto shook his head. "Not speed… Time… Only thanks to your Sharingan were you able to dodge it."

The Sharingan user nodded his head. "I am somewhat protected by a Time/Space Defense as well, after all."

Suddenly metal attacked Sasuke from every corner, shooting out of the ground, but the Uchiha dodged them all. All the metal pieces shot towards Naruto, reforming his right arm. The Genin's eyes widened as red Chakra was slowly gathering around the area where Naruto's left arm would be.

"That's Naruto's left arm. As you can see, he still has both." Sakura explained. "He's someone I don't want to face in battle, ever. He's completely unpredictable."

Musume's eyes widened. "You mean… Naruto-sensei's stronger than you?"

Sakura stared at Musume and chuckled. "A lot stronger, yes. He's stronger than Sasuke-kun, too."

Sensou's eyes widened. "T-Then… T-There's a rumour…Sasuke-sama's stronger than even the Hokage… So, Naruto-sensei's stronger than Hokage-sama too?!" He yelled.

The pink-haired woman smiled. "Ah, Hokage-sama is the most powerful Shinobi in Konoha. You should know this."

The other three Genin were staring at the battle between Naruto and Sasuke in disbelief. "Sasuke-sensei… he's losing?" Iori stated.

"And badly, too." Shiruko added coldly. "His opponent, this Uzumaki Naruto… He has an unbelievable amount of Chakra around him… My bugs feel apprehension and fear. This is inhuman. It's impossible to hold this much Chakra."

Hanatarou let out a sound of shock. "Man… Amazing… Even Shiruko is like this…"

Back to the training ground, Naruto was starting to get excited. "So far, we've been going easy on each other. How about we go up a bit?"

Sasuke nodded his head and unsheathed the sword on his back, immediately infusing it with Lightning Chakra. "Yeah… it's my turn to do some damage, now."

"And it's my turn to be using Jutsu now…"

The training field had turned into a battlefield. Jutsus were flying all over the place, but the two fighting each other were too fast as the viewers couldn't see them. They had been going at it for about half an hour already.

Sakura had pulled the five Genin a bit further back, sensing it could become a bit dangerous. "This is so sweet!!" Sakura heard the Inuzuka boy, Hanatarou, yell. "I've never seen sensei so serious before!"

"It must feel tiresome, to not be able to exert yourself to this extent for a long time." Frowns were being sent towards the Aburame boy, Shiruko. "He might radiate certain seriousness, but more than that, Sasuke-sensei seems to be enjoying this. Even though he is rapidly losing Chakra." The boy then frowned. "I have yet to estimate how much Chakra his opponent, this Uzumaki Naruto, has…"

"Can't you tell? Ryuha tells me Sasuke-sensei should be very careful with this opponent." Iori said as she patted her white male dog. "She's able to smell the amount of Chakra a person has, but she says there's just no end to his…"

"Souhoura's telling me the same thing. But, Souhoura is also able to smell which Chakra Affinity a person owns. Naruto-sensei… He has Fuuton, but also… Maton?" Hanatarou looked confused at his partner, a black female dog. "I've never heard Maton before, though."

Sakura smiled at him. "Maton is an element only few Shinobi can wield. And even fewer have mastered the element. In fact, I think no one has mastered it… yet. But Naruto is coming close."

"So, what is this Maton, then?" One of Naruto's students this time asked.

"Maton is Time and Space Technique… It takes a lot of Chakra to perform a Jutsu from this Element." The pink-haired Jounin answered.

"Naruto-sensei… He's actually… really strong." Musume let out in silent, but great shock. Next to her, Sensou could only nod.

"Fuuton, Gufuu no Jutsu!!"

"Ah!" Sakura's eyes widened. "Fall back!!" She yelled to the kids as a great tornado raged right in front of them.

TBC

The next chapter will be a flashback to what happened during the Whirlpool Mission..

Ok, time to summarize:

Uchiha Sasuke:

Sasuke's Sharingan is a Time/Space Doujutsu, making him the only one capable of evading the Hiraishin no Jutsu. His Doujutsu gives him a lot more Jutsu as well, which will be used in this fic.

Uzumaki Naruto:

Naruto's left arm is Chakra, his right arm is similar to D.Gray-man's Allen Walker's Innocence arm and/or Bleach's Abarai Renji's Zanpakutou. His Chakra is always Wind-infused and always poisonous as well, thanks to his partial merge with the Kyuubi.

Alright, as for the current Genin that will be playing bigger than usual roles in this fic:

Kanban Musume:

Light-blue, almost grey-haired girl, age 15.

Her special ability comes from her Chakra-Type.

When you think of her, think like Get Backers' Akabane Kuroudo a.k.a. Dr. Jackal. She can form her Chakra into a lot of things and… it's always poisonous. Her special ability will be Spores… If you've read my stories before, you might remember an OC called Kinokomaru/Kinoko in There Where When is Now, Book 2.

Hanzai Sensou:

Dark red-haired boy, age 15.

His Chakra is literally explosive. His Chakra affinity is obviously Fire. His nickname in the Academy was Rockhead. He was immune to his own Explosions and somehow, you'd always get hurt when trying to hit him. He will also inherit a skill developed in the There Where When Is Now series… An explosive Taijutsu style.

Inuzuka Iori:

Brown-haired girl, age 14. Owns a male dog called Ryuha. She is the twin-sister to Hanatarou.

Inuzuka Hanatarou:

Brown-haired boy, age 14. Owns a female dog called Souhoura. He is the twin-brother to Iori.

Aburame Shiruko:

Black-haired boy, age 14, wears NO glasses. His eyes are completely pitch black and they don't reflect anything. Shiruko's body has already evolved far from the average Aburame Shinobi his age.

Nara Ikimaru:

Bald boy, age 14, owns a Summoning Contract of the Panda, thanks to his mother; Sabaku no Temari.

Akimichi Chi-Chi:

Slim girl, age 14. Hides weapons in her invisible massive body layers… Think Tenjhou Tenge!!

Yamanaka Inoue:

Blonde girl, age 14. Telekinetic, Telepathic Genius and Genjutsu User.

Yup, Naruto's students are actually a year older than Sasuke's and Sakura's but… They flunked a few times, after all.

I've made lists of Jutsus on my site, all categorized in Elements. Fun, fun stuff!! And there's always room for more Jutsus! So if you have a cool technique in mind and won't mind me using it in my stories, please feel free to send me an e-mail or something of the sort.

Another thing; Naruto has used a lot of Blood Seals and his lifespan is shortened considerably; it will be explained how he is still alive…

Well, on to the next chapter!! Where Naruto's old subordinates enter the story once again!!
