6 The Greatest Prank In Konoha History

Tonight was the night. I glanced at my five-year-old accomplice. Not much had changed in this past year, other than us getting stronger. We also grew up quite a bit, and Naruto was no longer malnourished.

"You ready, we've been building our reputation for a year. Tonight, we'll go down in history." Naruto shot a smug grin over in my direction. He had gotten increasingly more arrogant when it came to pranks the bigger ones we pulled off. What had originally started as just us putting a water bucket in a store's door to soak the next person who came in, progressed to us sneaking out and covering the Hokage's Tower in sticky notes. I'm not even sure how we pulled off that one, but now everyone knew the illustrious pranker 'Nakuya.' Anyone who knew the two of us could easily guess our identity, but we were just innocent five-year-old kids who hadn't technically appeared in public for the past two years.

"You got the tarp?" I asked, he pulled out a storage scroll. We bought these with the funds we got from pranks. After all, we had gotten so famous that people paid us to prank others. Of course, we met them under our 'polymorph' jutsu. This was the name we dubbed the over-used transformation technique.

"And the spray paint?" I asked, and with his signature foxy grin, he pulled out some more storage scrolls that were filled full of spray paint. "Remember, this is what we trained for. The wall walking is essential to make this work." Naruto just nodded. It had taken a while, but he finally could walk on walls. We're currently trying to get him to be able to take at least three steps on water. Chakra control is a sore subject for Naruto.

On the other hand, I have mainly focused on increasing my chakra pool. I found the best way to do this was to empty your chakra pool, which was easy since we were kids, even though we did have much more compared to kids our age. After that, while still out of chakra, I would do strenuous exercise while concentrating. This increased my physical and spiritual energies together so that I wouldn't end up unbalanced, and as they grew and my chakra regenerated it stretched my maximum reserves. Using this technique, I have almost gotten to the bottom threshold to attempt chakra manipulation.

Another thing I was working on was my medical jutsu. This was hard, with no one to teach me and just textbooks, it required a ton of patience and skill. So I could only barely use the mystical hand's technique, an A-rank technique that took plenty of chakra control. I used it to heal the minor bruises we got from training. But I could still tell that I was going much faster due to my special purifying chakra. It made it many times easier to learn. And even though I had my perfect chakra control it was hard, because I was young and it was constantly growing. My medical ninjutsu was pink instead of green, which I equated to the special chakra again.

Other than that, I got Naruto obsessed with reading about Hokage's. I think he turned into a fanboy of the Fourth, but I could care less as long as it got him to read the history books just so he could read about their legendary adventures. Of course, I knew this was just another form of propaganda and brainwashing, but he looked so excited I couldn't do it.

I glanced at the clock and saw that it was time to go. I turned to Naruto who also checked the time and we both raced out of the house.

Nighttime in Konoha was creepy. Knowing such a boisterous village could be this quiet makes you feel uneasy. I and Naruto stuck to the shadows, going along routes and using the parts of the village that were still under construction from the nine-tails attack so no one would catch us. After the year of constant pranking, we had almost mastered chakra suppression. Along with stealth. The ANBU didn't even know what hit them before the whole base's hair was dyed orange. Now that was a fun day.

We arrived at our destination, the Hokage's Mountain. Naruto grinned and pulled out the storage seals with the spray paint. We both applied chakra into our feet and quickly ran up the wall.

Three hours and thirty minutes, one hour on each of the faces, Naruto said we shouldn't spray paint the Fourth since he was his favorite. And then thirty minutes to spray our signature logo right beneath all of them. I grinned next to him as I looked up at the mountain. Naruto did a lot of research so we knew about their personalities. Therefore, we spray painted a depressing cloud over the first Hokage with the words 'depressed shadow' under him. The second we spray painted wrinkled on his forehead to make fun of his infinitely scowling expression and white hair, with a spray-painted 'pissed shadow' under him.

I personally think we did the third the best though. With hearts instead of eyes, and Icha Icha, which we found his secret stash when we stick noted his office, under him. With the name 'pervy shadow' under his face.

Now time for the last part of our ultimate prank. Naruto pulled out the final scroll and unsealed it. A ginormous tarp was pulled out, big enough to cover all the faces. It had taken months to prepare this, along with painting it so with a glance no one would notice anything different.

"You're ready to escape when we need to, right?" I ask Naruto, right as the sun rises and we hear the slumbering village below us. Naruto shot me a foxy smile and put on his white face mask so no one would recognize us. Then we transformed our body into a normal adult with nothing unique so no one would ever know it was.

It had been about half an hour, the village was bustling about and civilians lined the streets. "Ready?" I heard Naruto's voice to the left. He must think it's about time. I gestured that I was ready, he nodded before holding up three fingers. The second the last one went down I let go of the tarp and used the substitution technique, erasing all the evidence from the scene.

[Hokage's POV]

I had just entered my office. 'Another long day of paperwork.' I sighed. I glanced out the window and looked at the Hokage's Mountain. 'Ahh, Minato why did you leave me with this job'. I glanced at the petition on the front of my desk, to remove the demon and his friend. Damnit, I knew I shouldn't have told that damn council about him being the Jinchuuriki. And on top of that, they have now included Sakura, the little girl who always hung out with him. Though, I still wasn't sure why she called herself Sakuya and acted like a boy. After all, her father was one of the best Jonin this village ever had. Sadly though, he died in the nine-tails attack and I was forced to put her in the orphanage, as her mother's family wasn't willing to take in the child of a shinobi. And her father's family had died a long time ago. I quickly stamped disapproved before moving on. The next was a paper to move the academy age back down to six instead of the eight they had now. I wish I could, but we are still recovering from the ninetails and didn't have the staff or resources. So I also turned this one down. All of a sudden, I heard a large whooshing sound, only to be stunned when I turned around.

Those... those little brats! Of course, I knew of all the things Sakura and Naruto had done. Like taking that book from the restricted section and all their pranks. The only reason I let them take that book was that it was impossible. Well, technically it was theoretically possible. And I also knew all their other pranks, but this was really big. They spray painted the whole Hokage's Mountain!

Oh god, I'm going to have so much paperwork.
