Chapter 7: The 4th’s Legacy
I stood facing the little monsters wearing black tights that came down till my shins with bandages going down my legs till my black toeless sandals. I stuffed my hands into the front of my back hoodie finding with the zip line between my hands.
Mizuki smiled, "go on little professor, introduce yourself."
I sighed as I stepped up and met the eyes of all the fourth year students before me, "hello, I'm Yami, it's nice to meet you."
"Yami!" Lee called out from the first row grinning brightly, "it's good to see you my friend!"
"Sir, why is Naruto's bro here?" asked a girl, Pepe according to her name. I sighed, ever since Naruto and I became roommates people called us 'brothers', it was nice at first, but every time Naruto heard it the kid began to act emotional and shit, stupid kid.
"That's because this brat is overqualified to be in the year below you," Mizuki said with a smirk as I gulped feeling everyone's eyes land on me.
"Really? So is he some kind of genius?" asked a boy, Toru.
"Yes," Mizuki nodded, "I don't call him the little professor for nothing. Anyway, go on kid, sit down."
"Here Yami!" Lee called out immediately pointing at the seat next to him. I sighed, but unable to really say no I sat down next to the boy who smiled giddily.
"Now, let's begin," Mizuki went into his lecture, Lee looked bored, as did the rest of the class, but I did my best to listen closely. Kind off. Meh, not really.
I already had a high enough INT score, why did I still need to listen to this crap? So for the rest of the day I just dozed off, going in and out of conscious awareness. Stupid boring class.
Lunch that day was...entertaining.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU WON'T BE IN THE SAME CLASS?!" Naruto cried out so loudly I think I might have lost a couple of HP there.
I sighed rubbing my ringing ears, "I meant what I said Naruto, Iruka put into the next year's class, so I won't be with you anymore."
"B-but that's not fair!" Naruto cried out, "how am I going to be Hokage if you keep getting better than me!"
I scoffed, "dude, I hate that job, you know that. Trust me, as long as there's an idiot like you willing to be Hokage I will never even think of getting that job."
"This blows!" Naruto slammed his fist on the table, "who's going to teach me all the stuff I don't know now?! Who Yami? Who?!" he grabbed my collar shaking me repeatedly.
I sighed, "maybe you should learn by yourself?"
Naruto cried, "but I don't want too!"
"Yosh!" Lee said as he walked up to Naruto's and mine table, "may I sit here Yami?"
I shrugged, "sure I guess."
"Much thanks!" Lee smiled as he sat down next to me and smiled at Naruto, "hello! I'm Rock Lee! It's nice to meet you!"
Naruto blinked, "ah, hello."
I smiled, "Lee is a taijutsu specialist, he likes Sakura too."
Lee blushed, "h-how did you know that?!"
"What?! You like Sakura too?!" Naruto yelled as he jumped off his seat shaking his fists at Lee, "I won't let you have her you hear?!"
"N-no, it' not like that Naruto I swear!" Lee blushed as slowly they began to yell.
I smiled form the side, this time tomorrow they would be best friends.
After lunch we had physical training. For the first year we had running laps and other body exercises. For the second year we had obstacle training and from the third year would begin taijutsu spars and weapons training.
We first began training weapons and immediately a new quest came up.
Quest Aleter!
Hit the target five times with a kunai!
HIt the target five times with a shuriken!
Reward:
+10 EXP per successful hit
Failure:
None
Do you accept?
Y/N?
I rolled my eyes and accepted. Too easy.
"Yami!" called out Tonu-sensei, a low level chunin kunoichi that specialized in taijutsu. She was assigned to us for outdoors training and from what could gather she won't have bad...no Mighty Guy, but not bad.
"Right," I came up to the target and stood away. I reached into my hip pouch and took out five kunai in one hand.
Tonu began to speak, "you have to get five kunai into the target, you have ten chance-"
Thuck!
Kunai techniques, Lv- 28 (39%)- Aquaracy- 100%
"Done," I replied as I threw all five at the target hitting bullseye for all five.
The class immediately began to murrer, looking at the target in awe. Idiots, this was nothing, try hitting a nidoran in the middle of a field of lavenders, now that was difficult shit.
"Good job," Tonu replied looking not at all phased or surprised, "now shurikens."
I sighed and reached around to my hip pouch and took out the weapons. Threw them quickly, four landing in the center, pushing the kunai out from sheer force, while the fifth hit the last ring, barely making it inside the target.
Shuriken techniques, Lv- 21 (9%)- Accuracy- 75%
"You need to work on that," Tonu replied as she marked something down on her pad.
Ping!
Quest completed!
Throw-
I grumbled as I swiped the message away and walked to the target getting my weapons before moving aside and letting the next person step up.
I didn't pay much attention to the people, mostly not bothered by the filler characters. But when Tenten stepped up, well then I was interested.
The girl was a master at this already, throwing all ten at once, getting almost all in the bulls eye. She smirked as she looked at me smugly, I raised an eyebrow as I met her gaze, was she trying to prove something? The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
She finally scoffed and retrieved her weapons, walking past me with a scolding look, guess she hates me.
Tenten Higurashi, Weapons lover
Lv- 15
REP- 12
Or maybe not. Hm, maybe it was respect I saw her in her eyes.
I looked out for Lee, who got three kunai in and four shuriken, and then finally Neji, who did a perfect ten, show off.
We were then divided into groups for taijutsu practise. Most of the kids were using the academy style while a few others, myself included, used other forms of combat.
I ended up with a kid from the Sarutobi clan who used the Sarutobi style. His name was Zumo and he had short black curly hair and beaming brown eyes. He wore a red full sleeved hoodie with orange flames lickign the sleeves and edges and a set of black shorts.
We were the fourth to go, right after Neji finished kicking the ass of some civilian kid. We stepped inside and immediately we made the sign of confrontation.
"Begin!" Tonu called out as the Sarutobi kid moved.
He swung at kick at my gut, it was so slow all I had to do was sid step it before spinning on my heel, bringing my elbow swinging forward to hit him in the gut. My fist then came up causing the back of my hand to hit his nose before I quickly landed three more hits one after the other on his upper torso before spartan kicking him out of the ring.
"Out! Winner by disqualification, Yami!" Tonu called out.
Zumo looked up with wide eyes, "h-how did you do that?"
I shrugged, "I'm fast," I offered him my hand, helping him get back on his feet.
"Those movement, I have never seen a ninja fight like that," Zumo blinked, "who taught you how to fight?"
"No one taught me, I created my own taijutsu style," I said making the seal of reconciliation which the kid mimicked.
"You made your own taijutsu style?" Tonu asked with an impressed eyebrow, "when?"
I shrugged, "when I began the academy. It was...difficult at first, but I think I became pretty good at it."
"I'll say," she hummed, "it actually resembles the Uchiha interrupter style, only it's more..."
"Disturbing?" I offered with a smile.
"Yes."
I nodded, "that's what I call it, Disturbance style."
"Sensei," Neji immediately stepped up, "I would like a chance to fight Yami."
Tonu rolled her eyes, "you Hyuga's and your pride. Sorry kid, but no can do. Maybe next time okay?"
I looked at Neji as he nodded begrudgingly, before turning to me and glaring. I sighed, kid was fucking out for blood!
After physical training we went inside for a lecture before being dismissed. I went home and found Naruto there waiting for me. We talked a bit before I locked myself in my work room, sitting before Stan Lee's next hit: Batman Vs. Superman!
Instead of the horrible movie I remember seeing, not that I remember if I saw it alone or with friends, I wrote a completely new script! Hopefully this one will be a lot better. I was almost done with it, and was now putting in the last touches.
Instead of having Superman die I had him, Batman and Wonder woman come together to form the Trinity. Instead of Doomsday I had the main bad guy be Darkseid's son Kaliban. They kicked his ass and I finished the book with the three becoming friends and the threat of a greater evil looming in the horizon.
It was honestly a blast writing this book, and I had to rewrite it a couple of times to make it more...Elemental nations friendly, but I think in the end I made it worth it.
It was dark when I was done, by that time Naruto had come back home after pulling a few pranks. He and I had the dinner I cooked like always and went to bed. But while Naruto went to his room, I went out.
I went into the park and reached the dungeon spawn spot. The menu came up and I selected the level 4 dungeon, a special treat I had saved for myself for beginning the new year, but I suppose I might as well get as much training as I possibly could now that I had only one more year to train before becoming a ninja.
The world shifted and I found myself in a giant stretch of beach. I blinked and looked around, there was only sand as far as the eye could see with a few boulders littering the view here and there. And before me was a vast expanse of water, a seat without limits.
I smiled and unzipped my hoodie revealing a leather vest sown with scyther plates. And over it was a necklace with five minutrised pokeballs present like beads. I popped one out and threw it out, "go Cuter!"
Scyther came flying out, buzzing as it floated over me and looked around. It turned to me questioningly as it waited for orders.
"Alright Cuter here's the deal," I zipped my hoodie back up and began walking forward, activating my water walking ability as I walked into the water, "we are going to be fighting in the water, since Onix, Flamer, Blaze and King can't work with water you're going to have to watch my back."
"Scy!" it cried out and nodded as I took off in a sprint, running into the water while Scyther followed behind me. We got a few feet into the water when suddenly a giant orange figure exploded from the water at me.
I quickly dodged it before Cuter came swooping down and slicing through the thing.
+5 EXP
I blinked at the message, that was very little EXP. I looked at the now dead pokemon and sighed, "that explains it."
Magikarp,
Lv- 2
I honestly didn't need to see anything else. That explains the single hit KO.
Scyther and I continued and soon came upon another Magikarp attack, and another, and another. By the fifth one I didn't even bother dodging. I just punched it right in the head.
Soon we came onto our first real challenge of the day, a horsea. But it honestly didn't last very long when after I used my hell viewing genjutsu to trick it allowing Scyther to knock it out.
We gained around 10,000 EXP from killing all those Horses and magikarps. We also came across a few Goldeens, but nothing too amazing. From the Horse As I gained smoke bombs and from the Goldeens I got fish live oil, which apparently is very useful for cooking.
In the end we ended up facing the boss of the waters, a giant Seaking. While powerful and mighty, I didn't really care for it, it was just a giant fish, big woop. I ended up defeating it easily with a few good hits in and one slice from Cuter.
I gained 5,000 EXP alone from that thing allowing both Cuter and I to level up;

Water
You have got to be kidding me! Only now do I get my elemental control?! Did that mean I would have never gotten it if I didn't level it up to 100% control?! The fuck man?!
I grumbled but quickly selected Fire, since I did have mostly fire jutsu to use.
Ping!
You have selected fire!

.So now I have to start all the way from the beginning? Fuck me right in the ass! That's it, fucking hell!
I came out of the natural dungeon and returned Cuter. I came back home and sat own at my office. I opened my menu and pulled out all the skill scrolls I had, which was three. Two + 10 scroll I had gotten when this whole thing began, a +2 scroll and a + 5 scroll.
Water walking, Lv- 10 (30%)
By channeling chakra into the soles of your feet you can walk on water.
Uses: 15 CP per minute
I gained +5 CC points for every level gained, I knew saving these things would be worth it one day. I picked up a scroll and opened it up, selecting the water walking skill to level up.
Ping!
A skill has leveled up 10 times!
Water walking, Lv- 20 (MAX)
By channeling chakra into the soles of your feet you can walk on water.

+ 50 CC!
Yup, totally worth it.
CC- 129
Ping!
You have gained a new perk for crossing 100 CC stat!
Chakra sensor- Detect people's chakra and their moods. Range- 300 feet
Ha! Awesome! A new perk! Take that Tsunade! Let's see you beat my score! If my calculations were correct that meant the next time I leveled up I would gain...let's see, 2% for every ten levels meaning..wait, let's just put a stat point in there;
CC- 130
Points- 4
There we go, much better. Now, 2% into 13 is 26%, add the I would get perfect control over fire in five level ups!
But good things come to those who wait, if this situation has taught me anything it was that.
I then turned to the other skills I had in my arsenal and wondered which ones I should level up. I found two;
Disturbance style, Lv- 32 (74%)
Akin to a warrior's dance performance, a user of this style is able to rapidly and relentlessly bombard their target with precision, at various angles and locations. This style, comprised of sheer unpredictable movements, can easily catch his opponents off-guard.
DMG- +50 + STR + DEX
Speed- 47% faster
Finjutsu, Lv- 38 (83%)
The art of making seals using paper and ink.
Success rate- 76%
Maximum difficulty range- B class seals
The Disturbance style was my best move set, I really needed it to be up to notch. So I decided to use my other +10 skill scroll on it;
Disturbance style, Lv- 42 (0%)
Akin to a warrior's dance performance, a user of this style is able to rapidly and relentlessly bombard their target with precision, at various angles and locations. This style, comprised of sheer unpredictable movements, can easily catch his opponents off-guard.
DMG- +80 + STR + DEX
Speed- 57% faster
And then I used both the +5 skill scroll and +2 skill scroll on fuinjutsu;
Finjutus, Lv- 45 (0%)
The art of making seals using paper and ink.
Success rate- 90%
Maximum difficulty range- A class seals
Mh, cool. With that done I decided to call it a night, might as well get some sleep.
One year later:
Not much had happened in the last year I spent in the academy. It just kind of went by without notice...kind off. Oh I grew up a lot, I now stood at five feet four inches, not bad for a eleven year old kid. My body was fit, not much fat, but no bulging muscles either.
Oh and what else? Oh right I managed to level up exactly five times!
Meaning I gained a 26% control rate for my fire affinity every time. And on my fourth level up I completed my fire affinity, allowing me access to a second affinity!
This time I chose wind and when I leveled up a fifth time;
Yami, Little Professor
Level- 29 (7600/15,200)
HP- 4,000/4,000 (+20)
SP- 1,925/1,925

Failure:
Death
Do you accept?
Y/N?
I pressed yes without hesitation and turned to the Hokage, "thank you for this...it means a lot."
Sarutobi smiled, "it's fine. Now, I'm sure you and Naruto have a lot to talk about. I'll see you soon for your first mission Yami...if you pass that is."
I chuckled, oh please, who the hell is he trying to scare? I wished him well and quickly left the tower. The moment I did a new alert popped up;
Ping!
Quest Completed!
Return the fabled cloak of the Fourth Hokage!
Rewards:
+20 Skill scroll
+20 REP permanent bonus for the people of Konoha
Tri prong Kunai
Okay, now that was a reward. A permanent +20 REP bonus? No wonder people liked me before I even met them. And the skill scroll was pretty bitchin too!
I went home quickly that night, I walked in and called out, "Naruto! Are you home?!"
"Yeah Yami!" Naruto called out from the workroom. He sat his own rarely used desk looking over a book with a pencil behind his ear, "yo, what's up?"
I raised an eyebrow, "are you studying?"
The boy chuckled, "yeah. I figured if you're already a ninja, it's my job to catch up. No Hokage is going to be second rate to his subordinate!"
I chuckled, "I guess..oh, and speaking of Hokage's, guess what I did today!"
Naruto blinked, "what?"
"I found the fourth hokage's cloak!" I quickly told him the entire story, of how I found it in the Uzumaki stone, at which point I had to explain who the uzumaki clan were. Damn kid, I wish he listened in class!
"Woah! I came from a pretty important clan huh?" Naruto said, his eyes sparkling, "take that Uchiha bastard!"
I sighed, "yes Naruto, you come from a pretty cool clan."
"Hey, you think if I tell Sakura this she's finally say yes to a date with me?!" Naruto asked with eyes filled with hope.
I shrugged, "sure, I guess. Just make a fool of yourself okay? Because is she likes you just because you're from an old clan, she isn't worth the trouble, do you understand me?"
Naruto waved my worry away, "yeah yeah, I got you."
I smiled, "right...anyway...do you want to know the real reason I went there thought?"
Naruto blinked, "what do you mean?"
"You see, I figured you would be a little depressed, with me becoming a ninja before you and all-"
"-Hey! I'm not depressed Dattebayo! I'm just determined!"
I rolled my eyes, "right. Anyway, I figured if I can find something from the Uzumaki clan that might cheer you up! So I went looking and..."
"And? Did you find something?" Naruto asked, his eyes wide.
I smiled as I opened my inventory behind my back and mentally selected the hokage right selves. I took it out and presented it to him, "I found this around the same place I found the fourth's cloak."
"What is it? A dusty old cloth?" Naruto asked sniffing it.
I smiled, "look inside the sleeve dumbass."
Naruto frowned, he did just that finding the stitched names easily, "Kushina and Na..Naruto?"
I smiled, "I'm guessing...that's you. Because I don't know another other Naruto's in Konoha. And the woman's name.it's probably-"
"My mother's name" Naruto gasped in realization as he looked up at me with awe filled eyes as tears began to fill them up. He leaped out of his seat and hugged me, slowly beginning to cry.
I said nothing, I stayed silent as I hugged the boy I came to look at as a brother.
It took awhile for Naruto to calm down. The moment tears stopped he demanded I help him find out more about his mom. I promised him I would d just that;
Quest alert
Find out more about Kushina Uzumaki!
Rewards:
300 EXP
+10 REP with Naruto!
Failure:
-10 REP with Naruto!
I accepted of course. But after that we spent quite a while talking about what kind of woman she would have been, and if she would have been proud of him. I told him that she would, of course she would.
I made ramen for Naruto that night, a special treat, and quickly he fell asleep. I was about to go to bed as well when I heard the window slide open.
I moved on instinct throwing five kunai at once at the target.
"Impressive," Kakashi said from the window sill as he held four kunai in his hand while the fifth had sailed past his cheek cutting it before embedding in the window sill behind him, "not many people can react that quickly."
I lowered my defence a little, "I'm not many people. I'm a ninja.technically," I looked at the man's REP and was shocked. It was 60. WHOA! How the hell did it become 60?! I looked at him and him at me.
"So...what can I do you for copycat?" I asked.
Kakashi threw the kunai back at me before turning around and looking out, "the sleeve you tore off...why?"
I blinked, "what are you talking about?"
Kakashi sighed, "I know you tore off the sleeve and gave it to Naruto. I want to know why."
I raised an eyebrow, "don't you wish you had something of your father's to remember him by?"
Kakashi's breathing faltered as he slowly turned to me, "so you know?"
"That Naruto's real name isn't Uzumaki but Namikaze? Yeah, I know."
"When did you figure it out?"
"A few years back, I think it was month after we began living together. Saw his dumb face so many times, when I was presented with the fourth picture I couldn't help but draw conclusions. It was kind of obvious really. I mean, why would a Hokage ask someone else to sacrifice their child if he couldn't do the same?"
Kakashi looked at me and blinked, "you are very wise for your age."
I shrugged, "they don't call me the Little Professor for my looks. I hope."
"And are you planning on telling Naruto?"
"Not yet no," I sighed, "the kid's too dumb, he'll probably go around yelling it out on the top of his lungs. And then he'll be in deep shit. Maybe after he's a chunin I'll tell him...yeah, that sounds right."
Kakashi smiled, or well eye smiled...how does he do that? "Very well...that's all I wanted to know. Thank you...for being such a good friend to Naruto."
"I-" I tried to speak, but before I could say a thing he disappeared. I grumbled, 'fucking ninja!'
I sighed and went to my room. I laied down but.I COULDN'T FUCKIGN SLEEP!
So I decided to do something fun. I went to my work room and sat down on my desk. I took out the tri pronged kunai and began to study the seals on it;
Finjutus, Lv- 45 (0%)
The art of making seals using paper and ink.
Success rate- 90%
Maximum difficulty range- A class seals
Alright, I have a 90% success rate, let's see if I can figure this out.
Ping!
Your are attempting to learn a SS class seal! It cannot be done!
Damn it! It's past my difficulty range! Unless...I took out the +20 skill scroll I got today and opened it up.
Ping!
Your skill has leveled up!
Fuinjutsu, Lv- 60 (MAX)
The art of making seals using paper and ink.
Success rate- 99%
Maximum difficulty range- SS class seals
I ended up wasting five levels, but it's so fucking worth it! ARGH GOD THIS IS AMAZING!
I turned back to the Flying Thunder God seal on the kunai and began to understand it. I worked through the night, hours passed by but I didn't care. I picked apart every line on that seal like a doctor observing a cell under a microscope.
The next day Naruto and I went to the library where we found records of one Kushina Uzumaki. All information about her marriage life was retracted, which made Naruto depressed since he didn't find out anything about his dad.
But we took all we did find about Kushina and spent three days in the library reading up on her life. Well, Naruto did that while I read a random fictional novel about a ninja that used jutsu to build a village in the center of the Earth...yeah, real original.
It was at five in the morning on the day of team assignments that I finally managed to succeed. The village was barely awake when I stood up and threw my hands up in victory, "I DID IT!"
Ping!
Flying Thunder God seal added to recipe under Creation skill
It was perfect, a seal so complex it took me five whole days to figured it out, even with my genius level intellect and mad high ninjutsu skills!
I immediately took out a horned dagger and etched the runes into its handle. I placed it across the room and focused, allowing my chakra to take hold of the seal trigger and
ZOOM!
I moved in a flash of yellow light across the room arriving above the dagger's potion on the ground.
Ping!
You have created a new jutsu!
Flying Thunder God, S rank
Your can instantly travel to locations with the Flying Thunder God markers on it.
CP cost- 100 CP (for 100 Km)
A smile broke out on my face, "best jutsu ever!"
Ping!
Quest completed!
Figure out how the Flying Thunder God jutsu works!
Rewards:
New Perk
+5 points
Ping!
You have obtained a new perk!
Seal Master- +10% to success for any new seals you try and make
Adding this to my already high 99% success rate made it a perfect 100%! Sweet! I then opened my menu and quickly assigned the new points I got. I put two in VIT, two in DEX and one in CC;
STR- 32
VIT- 44
DEX- 44
INT- 35 (+2)
CHA- 50
CC- 131
LUC- 26 (+5)
I closed the menu and groaned, stretching the knicks out of my body before going for a shower and a fresh change of clothes and since today was the official start for my ninja career I figured I might as well come in with style.
I opened my inventory and took out all the items I would need;
Custom leather armour, C class item
Armour made out of leather and Scyther exoskeleton.
Durability (with +400 for cutting damage.)
250/250 for chest (15)
300/300 for shoulder (15)
200/200 for shin (15)
The leather armour was similar to the classic garb ninjas in my world wore. The leather worked like cloth binding itself around me tightly, but still allowing me enough freedom to use my Disturbance style effectively.
Then came the Scyther exoskeleton plates I used as pieces of armour. They were all dark green, almost cameo green and were broken apart and placed in a similar fashion to Batman's armour in Dark Knight.
Along the sides and belt were several pouches and hidden compartments I filled with poison powder, paralysis powder, a few potions, a bunch of ninja wire, sealing tags, sealing scroll, ink and even a few trap creating instruments kept in a storage scroll.
Rare cat fur cowl, C class item,
Cowl that grant +5 STR
The cowl was similar to the hood I saw Green Arrow use on some...TV show I think. Either way the cowl was around my neck with a face mask and a hood that did a pretty good job covering my features. But for now I just let it be, displaying my face for all to see.
Custom made armbands, C class item
Made out of Scyther exoskeleton and fireproof leather and can withstand extreme temperature.
-50% DMG from all fire based attack.
Durability- 400/400 (+300 for cutting damage)
These were just simple forearm bands, at least that's what people would think. In actuality they are covered with seals and also hide a hidden blade for assassinations and the like.,
I also hide away several ninja tools and other forms of items. This is just incase I was in a situation where I couldn't explain away how I pulled things out of thin air when I use my inventory. Hence, the many seal forearm bands.
I sighed as I looked at myself in the mirror. I honestly hated the fact that I looked so much like a fucking uchiha. Black spikey hair that came down till my shoulders and black walnut shape eyes. My cheekbones were a little rounder than the normal Uchiha look, so that was something.
I took my forehead protector and looked at it, it shined brightly..hm, that's going to be a problem. It shining brighting will make it difficult for me to hide, even with my hood and face mask...hm.
I took some charcoal and soda wash and mixed them together. I then rubbed the headband thoroughly in the sink making it into a dull grey colour, like it had just been through a dirty swamp. I then quickly replaced the cloth headband with some black leather I had in my inventory and tied it around my head, now I was ready.
Hm, I really do look like a cooler version of the Green Arrow. Only no bow and arrow, thank god for that.
I quickly made dinner, and by that time Naruto had woken up. It was technically his holidays, so he stayed at home while I went to the Academy. He wished me good luck, and I knew I probably won't need it. It's not like I'll get stuck with someone who hates my guts right?
I walked into the classroom and noticed only a few of the kids I spent this year with had managed to pass. Around nine people, including me. I'm guessing only nine teams will be formed this year then, huh, no wonder people kept talking about Naruto's generation compared to their year where nearly everyone passed, this year was shit.
"Alright everyone settle down," Iruka said as he walked in with a folder. He looked at me in surprise, "ah Yami, almost didn't recognize you. Impressive uniform, where do you get it?"
I smiled, "I made it senseit."
Iruka grinned and gave me a thumbs up, "well it's amazing. Now, take your seat, I have one final lecture for you all before you leave these halls for good."
I sat down and listened, but I didn't really pay attention. I know what he was going to say, I know it and I understood.
"Right then, on with the main event," he said with a smile. "First we have team one..." I stopped paying attention, listening to only see if my name came up. The only other interesting name came up was during team nine, "for team nine we have Rock Lee, Tenten Higurashi, Neji Hyuga, you're sensei will be Mighty Gai."
"YOSH! THIS IS SURELY DESTINY!" Lee cried out with eye's glowing with determination.
"Sit down Lee!" Iruka scolded.
"Hai!"
Iruka pinched his nose, "I already know they're going to get along. Anyway, moving on. Team ten is still in rotation, team eleven will be Zumo Sarutobi, China Mozen and Yami," that had my attention, "and your sensei will be Ko Hyuga. That is all the teams, I hope you all make us proud!"
I looked at Zumo, the same kid who's ass I kicked my first day in this class. Wore red flame overcoat under which was a blue ninja uniform, his mesh clearly seen under the cloth. He hates losing, to me especially. He has a penchant for fire jutsu, if the way he keep bragging about his skills is anything to go by. Hyperactive too, like a certain someone I know.

A member of the branch family, Zumo has always seen himself as an outcast and always felt ignored. He sees the world a troubled place and wishes to simply gain the respect of his clan.
And then the girl, China Mozen, civilian, blue hair tied in a ponytail, black eyes. She wore a blue one piece chinese style dress that ended at her knees and split apart at her side showing her bloomers underneath. She had a giant scroll on her back, if recall correct she and Tenten were weapons freaks, only she realized a lot more on hand to hand weapons while Tenten focus do projectiles.

China has only one dream, to show the world she isn't someone who should be looked down one simply because she's a woman. She looks up to her close friend, Tenten, and wishes to be Konoha's first female S ranked swordswoman.
I groaned, I barely even spoke to her, but she had a high REP score, 35, 55 if the bonus was added. And then finally came our new sensei.
He wore the standard Konoha jonin garb and had his headband covering his hair which was cut shorter than normal for a Hyuga his age. His face was thinner than Neji's and he actually smiled at me, which I didn't think was possible.

Ko is a shinobi from the main branch of the Hyuga clan and is known to be very light hearted and cheerful. He is a calm and collected man and his only goal in life is to make the world a better place for those he cares about.
I raised an eyebrow, so I had a Sarutobi who didn't like being second fiddle, a civilian girl who looks like Tenten's stalker, but is skilled enough and a Hyuga who's an idealist.
I smiled, "I don't know about you guys, but I think I got the best team out of this deal."
"Not so Yami! I have gotten Gai-sensei as my teacher! So surely mine was the best!" Lee exclaimed.
I sighed, "can't you let me have this Lee? I was trying to look cool in front of my new teammates."
Lee blinked, "oh! I'm so sorry Yami! As punishment I'll apologize to you a thousand times! I'm sorry I'm sorry-"
"Lee please stop," I groaned.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!..." I really should have just shut up.
