31 Genin Test: Team 7

(Naruto's PoV) 

I sighed as another hour passed since the scheduled time for the test. Tch, if he was going to be late anyway, I wouldn't have skipped breakfast.

I looked at my teammates. 

Samasuke was... okay. He was staring at my Shiori-chan quite a lot yesterday, but I did give him a warning. I can't really do anything about everyone being enchanted by her. I can't really kill every man, right? She's just that great. 

Well, all they can do is see. While I can... 

I couldn't help but remember her taste. Those lips, that slippery tongue... 

Man, Shiori-chan looked so cute when I tried giving her that kiss again today. Her face totally turned tomato and she ran into the kitchen!

This Icha Icha Make out Tactics: Manga Version Signed Copy is quite good. At least my Jonin-sensei has a good taste. When he went to our home for inspection, I decided to do an inspection of his home in return.

While I may not be as good as Karin in sensing, I have learned a thing or two from her. 

Hatake Kakashi, he was Dad's student. Well, that means I got a good Jonin-sensei as well.

But... this useless girl gives me the creeps. Imagine being the heir of the Hyuga clan and not being even in the top 10 in taijutsu. No wonder Naji looks frustrated all the time. He should have been the heir.

Atleast she stalks Sosuke, not me. 

Well, I just have to endure for about six months before I become Chunin. I just hope she doesn't come in the way of missions and becomes a burden. Though I doubt things will go according to my wish. 

"So you stole my book, hmm?"

"Finally arrived? You are three hours late, again."

"Maa, I encountered a black cat-"

"Yeah yeah yeah. Can we start the test already. I am feeling hungry for Shiori-chan's food."

"Alright. Atleast act surprised when I sneaked upon you with a kunai."

"Well, you sneaked on the wrong one. I am just a Shadow Clone."

"..."

"Start already!"

"Kids these days..."

.

. 

. 

Phew! I am not a Shadow Clone. I am really glad that he didn't try to pop me by stabbing me with a kunai. I didn't even notice him before the kunai was on my neck, and that the Icha Icha manga was no longer in my hands.

I guess this is the difference between a normal jonin and an Elite Jonin, who is the Eternal Rival of Guy-sensei and a student of Dad. I wonder what happened to his teammates?

"Alright. These are the bells. You have to get them from me to pass. And you have until noon."

"B-but sensei, there are only two bells."

"Hmm? Because only two of you can pass at maximim. The one who doesn't get a bell will have to return to the academy."

Hmm, but that wasn't the case with Guy-sensei's team. Maybe Kakashi has some special privilege? Well, I just have to give my all to get the bell.

"Your time starts now. Come at me with the intent to kill."

Sasuke and Hinata hid in the bushes, and I took my fighting stance. I don't think that hiding from him will really help me. I will just have to fight him head-on. 

"Oh? You aren't hiding?" 

"That just isn't my style."

I ran at him at full speed, and gave him a strong kick which he blocked by his arm. 

'Rasengan!' 

As I thrust a Rasengan on him, he looked shocked but was able to dodge. 

"Where did you learn that?" 

"Who knows?" 

Alright, time to get serious. Multi-shadow Clone Jutsu! 

I made 50 shadow clones, with bigger and heavier Rasengans. 

"So, umm, isn't that a bit overkill?" 

"Nope! Bigger Rasengan barrage!" 

The clones rained down the Rasengans, and he had no choice to run. But he suddenly appeared in front of me, and tried to put me in genjutsu. 

I acted as if I was caught in it, and swiftly tried to get the bell, but he backed away. 

Tch, I just touched it! 

A barrage of shurikens and kunais were rained down on him from Sasuke's location. They didn't work, obviously. But that gave me an opening to take out a seal from the storage of the gauntlet Shiori-chan made for me, Tebuteki. 

'Fuinjutsu: Paralysis Barrier!' 

The seal quickly expanded and covered the whole training ground, paralysing everyone. 

"Wha-" 

I didn't give Kakashi the chance to be surprised as I opened the first gate to break out of the paralysis through sheer force. 

My legs hurt, but they will heal easily anyway. 

I ran towards him, and got the two bells. But a kunai was by my neck as well. So he was able to move as well? As expected from Dad's student. 

"Hey, I got the bells, so don't I pass?" 

"Hmm, alright." 

I sighed in relief as he took back the kunai and dropped the paralysis barrier. I can make it stronger by pumping more chakra in it, but that will prevent even me from moving. I have to work on it so that I don't get paralysed even when being inside the barrier. 

Now that I have two bells, I will give one to Sumike. I don't want to be on team with only a girl if it isn't Shiori-chan. 

Though, how did Kakashi get caught in the seal so easily anyway? Was he caught off guard? 

"I will admit, I was caught off guard by Rasengan and that seal. Genins aren't that powerful generally."

I guess that makes sense. 

"So how about we fight when you are serious?" 

"After the test, sure. But, what do you intend to do with the second bell?" 

I stared at the two bells, and then at the two people who have arrived. Hyuga girl was looking as disappointed and depressed as she could, and Sasuke was clenching his hands and fuming. Well, 

"Sa-" 

"I don't need it! I will do it myself!" 

"Huh? Okay. No need to shout."

I said as I tossed one bell to Kakashi. 

"So, can I eat my bento?" 

"I have prepared two sets of delicious bentos myself, you know?" 

"Shiori-chan's food will be better than yours. Thank you, but I will eat my own bento."

And I went to the training post, while watching them fighting Kakashi. Hyuga girl was trying to land hits with Gentle Fist, while Sisuke was copying my moves of taijutsu while trying to put a sleeping tag on Kakashi. 

The fighting lasted for an hour before the time ran out. Hyuga girl was already out of breath, and Sasuke was clearly frustrated but not tired. Their coordination wasn't really good. Sasuke was focusing on attacking and Hyuga girl was trying to give him space which led to her not fighting much. 

Hmm... wait a minute... three members, two bells... maybe this test has a certain meaning?

Kakashi and those two came to the posts where I was eating, and he tied Hyuga girl to one of them. 

"Naruto, Sasuke, you can eat the bentos I have prepared, with all my love-" 

He said while looking at me. 

"-And you can't give it to Hinata. She was the most useless. But I will give you just one another chance. But this time, you two will only have one hour to get the bell from me. I have an important matter to attend to, so I will return in half an hour." 

Saying that, he disappeared. I don't know if he has a hidden meaning in this test or it is really a special privilege for him since he is the Dad's student, but it is my gut feeling that the test is something like team coordination. No, that will be too stupid. How can one coordinate with unknown people-

Wait! I get it! We will have to cooperate with unknown people during the missions, so maybe Kakashi really wants to see how cooperative we can be, and the two bells would be a sham so that we don't cooperate with each other. 

So maybe this bento too-

"Here." 

Oh, Sakuse offered his half-eaten bento. 

"N-no!" 

"Eat it. I need you have atleast some energy, maybe just to distract him. I can't sense him nearby." 

Ho? Well, even I can't sense him, but I know for sure that he must be keeping an eye on us. Well, 

"You can eat my extra bento. Afterall, I have a better one which made by Shiori-chan herself." 

Woah woah woah! She is eating from Sasuke's half finished bento and used chopsticks? Granted that I just put the bento in front of her even though she is tied up. I am not feeding anyone but Shiori-chan. But what a creepy blush. And now that I think about it, I have seen her following Sukise sometimes. And since she has Byakugan... 

I kind of want Byakugan now. With it, I would be able to-

I shaked away those thoughts. Now isn't the time for that. 

Kakashi appeared in front of us, trying to look scary and all. Well, he isn't anything in front of Kyuubi. I wonder where he is sealed? I would like to free him in some way if he agrees to become Shiori-chan's pet. The pet she is working on hasn't woken up yet afterall. And a bigger pet is much better. 

Well, returning to Kakashi, he is showing some black clouds and trying to look threatening by releasing some pressure. 

"You all.... 

Pass!" 

"Huh!?" 

Those two huh'ed, and Kakashi started explaining things like those who break the rules are scum, but those who abandon teammates are worse than scum. 

That's a flawed ideology. First of all, who makes the rules? Old man Hokage is well... old. So his rules will be old and may not be relevant anymore. Secondly, let's say that there is a mission where either only I survive if I run or we all die because we try to fight for an insignificant client. 

I will run 100 out of 100 times then. I wouldn't want Shiori-chan to be sad. 

It is different if I can run and my shadow clones can save them as well. Or I can be a little late for a mission if I go to save a teammate. But I am not risking my life for teammates I don't really care about. Maybe I may try to save Sukuse since he challenges me almost everytime he comes. It's somewhat... okayish for him to be around? 

But not this useless girl. 

Anyway, Kakashi then took us to the memorial place, where his teammates' graves were. Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin. So the other two students of Dad are dead... 

"Alright. Your duty starts from tomorrow. Same place, 7 am." 

"And you won't be late again?" 

"I won't." 

Yeah. I totally believe that. Well, 

"Kakashi-sensei." 

"Hmm?" 

"Come to my home for dinner. Shiori-chan told me to bring you by 6 in the evening."

"Hmm, alright." 

Well, I have to invite others as well now. I wonder how Shiori-chan's test went? I am sure that she will pass though.
