Chapter 21 : Chunin Exams

.

It's been 2 days since Kakashi started training Naruto, It was all about Kenjutsu at first but Naruto showed something extraordinary to Kakashi which left him speechless, and for the first time in his life, He felt inferior in terms of learning quickly, He was considered to be a genius who learned things quickly and precisely but Naruto had him beat without a Doubt, Naruto had not Mastered Kenjutsu but reached a level good enough for him to spar with Kakashi

Kakashi at first used a wooden sword to train Naruto but very soon he had to bring his real Sword to train him, Naruto bought a Sword for himself on the 2nd day of their training and he could spar with Kakashi on equal terms, It was shocking for Kakashi, Even though he was holding back he was still a former Anbu Captain and one of the things he was famous for includes his Kenjutsu skills

It's the 3rd day and with this day Team 7's Holidays are over, They went to the meeting spot to meet Kakashi who was not there

This is the only thing Naruto couldn't Adapt but this time Kakashi wasn't late because he wanted to

Kakashi was called in the Hokage's Office with all the other Jonin Instructors

"So, It's here huh?"

"Yes, As you've guessed, The Chunin Exams will be conducted from next week, Kakashi, Kurenai, and Asuma speak... Do you wish to recommend any Genin whom you're charged off for this Exam"

"Team 7, Which consists of Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Sakura Haruno, They are all ready for the Chunin Exam"

Kakashi spoke which shocked Iruka because it hadn't been long since those kids had graduated, Kurenai and Asuma also said the same to Hokage

"Lo-Lord Hokage, Please Allow me to speak, Those kids graduated not long ago and they sure are gifted but it's too soon for them to take a Chunin Exams"

Iruka was worried about his student's safety, He knows how tough the Chunin Exams can be so he didn't want those Kids to be in Danger 

"Iruka, Those kids are much more talented than you think, Sasuke has talent and is a Genius, Sakura has nearly perfect Chakra Control and she is Smart, and Naruto.. Well he is someone I would say is at the level of a Jonin in terms of Strength and Intelligence all he is lacking is Experience"

Hiruzen already knew about Naruto's talent with the help of Kakashi's Report, But everyone else was shocked to hear that from Kakashi

A Genin who just Graduated from the Academy is at the level of a Jonin? 

"I know that Naruto is the best student from this batch of the student but now you're just spewing nonsense"

Iruka didn't believe Kakashi's words, He would've believed it if he was talking about Sasuke, Only because of the Sharingan, Even though Naruto was the Rookie of the Year, Sasuke is bound to surpass him because Naruto does not have a Kekkei Genkai and mostly Someone with a Kekkei Genkai can reach these feats which Kakashi was talking about

"... In my recent mission, It turned into an A-Rank mission where we fought Zabuza, An A-Rank Rouge Ninja, In that Mission Naruto was more useful to the team than me, Also at the end he was the one who landed the finishing blow on Zabuza, I say that he is more than ready to be a Jonin.. But Taking steps one by one is important instead of skipping ranks, right?"

Kakashi had made everyone silent in that Room, No one had any more arguments about this even in their Minds, If Kakashi had told them that he could use Jutsu without any Hand Signs they would've been much more shocked than this

"It's still not enough"

Sakura turned to Naruto, He had been teaching her how to use Chakra to enhance her strength, Sasuke and Sakura asked Kakashi when they were on their way to the Village about Naruto's strength and everything he did which Kakashi explained to them with the best of his Abilities, Though there were some things he himself didn't understand about Naruto's Ability

Sakura after learning that Naruto used Chakra to Enhance his strength, She asked him to teach her, Sasuke asked Kakashi to teach him but Kakashi didn't use it much himself so he was not the best to teach also Sasuke's Chakra Control was the worst in the Team 7, So he just came to hear Naruto teaching to Sakura and planned to practice on his own later

"The amount of Chakra you gather is not the same at the moment of impact, That is why it's not being used for Strength Enhancement instead it's being used the same as we use when we Climb Tree, Try keeping it stable this time and use more Chakra, the amount of Chakra you are using is just not good enough to Enhance your strength"

Sakura had been trying for a while but the only problem that occurred was that she simply could not coat her fist with enough Chakra, Naruto would point out the mistakes for her which was helping her but it needed more practice

He had been learning Kenjutsu from Kakashi for 2 days and he felt nice, He had never been tutored like that before so he wanted to try being a Tutor and it was fun as well, He decided that he would teach something to Konohamaru if he asks him again

Sakura kept on training her strength on the Tree which showed a little crack, Though she was not sure if it was because of Chakra or just her Physical Strength

That's when Kakashi appeared and gave a 'reasonable' excuse for being late which no one was buying

"So, I've Recommended you guys for Chunin Exams, Here fill out these Applications, If you want to participate report in room 301 at School, By tomorrow, That's All"

Kakashi gave them the application and left 

Sakura looked at Naruto and Sasuke, She wanted to ask if they participate or not but their faces already showed their decision, They were visibly excited about the Chunin Exam

Nobody needed to say anything, They all were ready to participate and they believed it, Even Sakura who was nervous but with her Last Mission which proved that she needed a lot of training to catch up to her Teammates

She felt like she couldn't do anything for the team, Her Parents were Civilians so she never learned any Jutsu, Her Taijutsu was also Average all she had was her Intelligence and her near-perfect Chakra Control, the Substitution Technique that they taught in the Academy

She was still ready to give her all for this Chunin Exam and get the Rank of a Chunin

[A/N]

So a guy with Id named uN_Joohn asked that I should not make it Harem and only keep Hinata as the FL

Here's what I've thought, So tell me your thoughts about it

I thought that I would make it a Harem with 3 Girls(Obviously Involves Hinata), I don't think I should tell you guys the name of the Girls now but That was my goal for Naruto

And I think that It would make sense . . Atleast for 2 of them

Also at first I was not quite sure what to do about this Harem or just FL or just No Romance but now I've Decided

It's Going to be a Harem with 3 FL who he will end up with in the End

I know so many guys out here did not wanted this but I will try my best to not make it's Focus shifted from the Action, Adventure to Romance(Well there will be sometime but for only short time)

Even though I've decided it to make a Harem, You guys still tell me if it's a good or bad Idea, I don't know if you guys know this but I'm a completely new writer with only 3 Books including this one and only this one has 20+ Chapters
