...❝The Survival Test (part 2)❞...
NARUTO POV
"What are you doing now? You know you won't get lunch if you don't pick up the bell during the day" Kakashi Sensei reminded me as I pulled and exhaled loudly
"I know, I know. You told us" I said angry
"You look very shaky for someone who will 'go beyond' Hokage" Kakashi Sensei said, marking me
"You told us not to eat breakfast. How can I fight when I starve to death?" I was complaining
SASUKE POV
"*Somach growling*"
'I should have listened to Shiori and her mother'
SHIORI POV
'A good usaha. But a woman like me doesn't let her stomach rumble even on the brink of starvation, I thought proudly
"But I have to admit, I'm still hungry" I said sadly.
SAKURA POV
"* Stomach rumbling*"
'Breakfast? I didn't even eat dinner last night. A very bad idea to go on a diet'
NARUTO POV
"So, you let me off guard, that's all, believe me. I'm so hungry, I don't have the strength. But I can't let that stop me. I have to get one of those bells, no matter what. I'll find strength somehow, believe me. I'm going to pass this exam and I'm not going back to the academy" I said
A few seconds passed and I continued
"I'm going to be a ninja" I said
SHIORI POV
A group of Naruto jumped out of the water
"Haha. Sensei is overconfident. That's why you're not ready for the Shadow Clone attack, my best Jutsu" Naruto said
All of Naruto is running towards Kakashi Sensei
SAKURA POV
'Naruto Seven? Whahuh? It's not a picture, it's real. How could he do that?'
"Good technique, but I don't think you can keep it for a long time. You speak as if you are Naruto the best. But you are still the worst student. You can't beat me with that Jutsu"
"What?! He caught me from behind!" Kakashi Sensei
'Oh'
"* Chuckles*didn't you say don't leave your enemies behind you? Good advice sensei, believe me. I had my clone come out of the river and then sneak behind you very quietly" Naruto said
"Now it's to nail my ass!"
'When did Naruto become so cool?'
SASUKE POV
'Tactics of distraction. Nice'
SHIORI POV
'Impressive'
"You're mine and so are the bells" Naruto exclaimed
One of Naruto aimed at Kakashi Sensei but instead hit another Naruto
"Huh?"- Naruto
SAKURA POV
"He's holding back. Naruto punching...Naruto"
'Naruto you're not very cool'
SASUKE'S POV
'He got you with a replacement Jutsu, loser. With this Jutsu, you quickly replace your own body with an object, so your enemy thinks he is attacking you when he actually attacks a log or stone. Leave it open for a counterattack. In this case, Jonin lets himself be caught and exchanges bodies with one of Naruto's clones. So Naruto thought he was fooling him but actually he was just attacking himself. And Jonin was so smooth, he made Naruto look like a moron.
NARUTO POV
I sighed disappointed
I saw a shining object next to the tree
"He dropped the bell hahahaha" I said as I ran towards him, picking it up
But then, I got caught in a trap
"Hey hey. Lower me. Whatisthis? Ahhh Ahh Help"
SASUKE POV
'Of course it's a trap'
"Ah. Somebody's. Ahhh"
'Jonin was not careless. Even if he fought with a fool like Naruto
NARUTO POV
"Bel" I said as I desperately grabbed him in my position
Then Kakashi Sensei took the bell off the ground
"*Huh*Think before you use Jutsu or your opponent may use it against you. Oh and also, if the feed is clear, don't take it. A ninja must see through the deception" - Kakashi Sensei
"I... get it" I said as I thrashed through the air.
"I'm telling you this because you DON'T understand. You think you understand that's not the same as actually getting it, understand?"- Kakashi Sensei
SASUKE POV
I threw some shuriken and kunai at Kakashi Sensei
'He finally let go of his vigilance'
"When you will learn" - Kakashi Sensei to Naruto
I hit him, he fell down, bleeding but moments later he was replaced by a log
'Other replacement jutsu. And now he knows where I'm hiding. Gotta move fast' I quickly moved from tree to tree
'I think he let down his guard but he did it on purpose and I fell for him'
KAKASHI POV
"So that's where he was*chuckles*"
I reached into my pocket
SHIORI POV
"It was a risky move Sasuke made. I better help Naruto quickly so that I can reach Sasuke in time" I said as I jumped off the branch
SAKURA POV
'Sasuke. Where are you going? Don't tell me Kakashi Sensei found you. No. gabe. He can't catch my Sasuke. I won't let him'
I tripped
'Well, he didn't hear me. I'm safe'
"Sakura, behind you" whispered someone
"Huh?" I turned around to look at Kakashi Sensei
"Yahahhhhhh!!!"
SHIORI POV
I walked towards Naruto
..."A ninja should be able to spot a trick" Ejek Shiori...
"Yes yes. How can I do that?"
"How about trying to think before you take action" I smiled at him
"Shiori" he called her
I threw a kunai right on the rope
"thank you. Shiori" He said
"But seriously. Think before you act" I looked at him
"Well, I'm sure I won't fall into his trap again" he said
He was caught in a trap once again
"I fell again!"
"*Sigh*I really have to see Sasuke" I sighed and threw another kunai onto the rope
"Be careful ok? I'm gonna go find Sasuke. And I hope I find Sakura too. I'm concerned. You can join me if you want, you know" I told him
"Well. I'm doing this myself. Believe me" He smiled
"K. Then" I nodded and started moving from tree to tree, looking for Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi Sensei
KAKASHI POV
I used Genjutsu on Sakura
SAKURA POV
"Jeez"
"Huh? Huh huh? Somebody there? Huh huh? Huh uh?" I look around
"I think I feel something. Whatisit? Huh huh? Huh huh? What's going on?" I panicked
"Sakura" I heard Sasuke calling my name
I gladly turned to face him
"Sasuke!"
"Sa-Sakura's. T-help me. Please help me" Sasuke said, covered in blood
Tears formed in my eyes
"Yahoooooooooooo!!!"
KAKASHI POV
Sakura fell to the ground
"I think I'm overreacting. But he has to learn to see these things" I said as I flipped through my book
"Skill Shinobi Battle number two. Illusion Jutsu. Sakura learned it in class but she still couldn't see it coming"
SHIORI POV
I finally saw Sasuke. I smiled and accelerated my pace
SASUKE POV
'Genjutsu. It's just simple mind control. I'm not surprised he caught Sakura with it but '
SHIORI POV
"I'm not like Sakura and Naruto" I heard him say. Then I saw Kakashi Sensei nearby
"Say that, after you get one of these bells, Sasuke-kun" Kakashi Sensei said as he chuckled
"Sasuke!" I called because I was now by his side
