Chapter 3: Rank 10 through 1

#Rank 7: Uchiha Sasuke. Newbie in Uchiha clan Taijutsu skill. Better than average newbie ninja student.

On the golden screen, a scene was shown where Sasuke is training on a field inside the Uchiha Clan compound. He was doing his best to perform several punching and kicking skill set, while throwing some shuriken in combination to that skill.

- Inuzuka Kiba: So, the ranking is listed from rank seven? Hey, Sasuke got listed as no. Seven? Pfftt! Is this the so called best student in our class? I knew it. He is just pretending to be cool. Well, 7th is cool too hahaha.

- Uchiha Sasuke: Hmph! What is a dog brat like you know? I at least got into the list. Not like you.

- Inuzuka Kiba: Who said that I'm not on the list? I can chat here, you know. My name is certainly in the list, and I think it's higher than yours.

- Uchiha Sasuke: You rank higher than me? Dream on!

Although Sasuke said that, he was feeling nervous. He knew that Kiba is certainly listed higher than him.

#Rank 6: Inuzuka Kiba. Newbie in the Inuzuka clan Taijutsu. Better than average newbie ninja student.

Another scene was shown on the golden screen. In it, Kiba was performing the Inuzuka Clan jutsu, the Four Leg Technique, while attempting to break a wooden doll. He succeeded to do just that.

- Inuzuka Kiba: Did you see that Sasuke? I told you I'm ranked higher than you. Now, you believe me, right?

- Uchiha Sasuke: Cheh! You are also the same, newbie!

By saying that, he unintentionally admitted that he was also a newbie.

#Rank 5: Akimichi Choji. Newbie in Akimichi clan Taijutsu. Better than average newbie ninja student.

On the screen, Choji turned into a round human-ball and steamrolled a wooden doll. The wooden doll was crushed into pieces, while the human-ball Choji was still rolling until he hit a tree. The tree was broken and Choji is still rolling away. He rolled for another distance before he stopped, and laid face down on the ground.

- Akimichi Choji: Uh...that was really embarrassing. Well, I am five on the rank.

- Inuzuka Kiba/Uchiha Sasuke: what??!

- Inuzuka Kiba: I refuse to believe that fat Choji is better than me! Ark!!

Pow!!

Kiba got another smack on his head.

"What did I tell you? Watch your language!" Once again, Tsume got angry and scolded her son. Kiba was annoyed but couldn't do anything. He can only suffer the scolding silently.

Outside the Hokage office, Sandaime and the three advisors is looking out at the golden screen.

"How come the Akimichi kid is better than the Uchiha kid? That Inuzuka Kiba is also still a kid, right? Does this mean that those kids are more talented than that Uchiha Sasuke?" questioned Utatane Koharu.

Hiruzen stroked his chin and said, "I believe the golden screen ranked them not according to which of them is more powerful. Rather, it is about which of them is more proficient in performing Taijutsu."

"The Uchiha Taijutsu is not the best skill in their arsenal. They are more talented in performing dojutsu, which in this case using the Sharingan eyes. Regarding the Akimichi boy, I can agree that his clan's Taijutsu have more destructive power than the Inuzuka clan's Taijutsu. Therefore, it is not a surprise that it got a higher rank." Danzo on the side said his own conclusion.

#Rank 4: Hyuuga Hinata. Able to perform moderately in the Hyuuga clan's Taijutsu, the Gentle Fist technique.

Another scene was displayed. This scene is in the Hyuuga compound. It was showing Hyuuga Hiashi who was currently scolding Hinata, his own daughter, and forcing her to perform the Gentle Fist.

When Hiashi saw this scene, he frowned. It just a short scene of him teaching Hinata the clan's jutsu. However, it caused the villagers to have a bad impression towards the Hyuuga Clan. What the clan leader worried the most is now happening. Not long after that scene was shown, the villagers started to talk to each other, and gave a bad remark towards the Hyuuga Clan.

"The clan head of the Hyuuga is really cruel. To make his daughter learn their Clan's skill, he beat her first."

"This is child abuse. We should report this to the Hokage."

"It's not the Taijutsu that being performed named Gentle Fist? Why was it needed to be taught by force? Where is the gentleness in that?"

"I heard that the Hyuuga did this to make the gentle daughter become better than the branch Hyuuga clan."

"Branch clan? Now that you mention it, rumors said that the branch clan got some kind of seal which prevent them from learning the mainstream skill of the Hyuuga's main house. What a cruel treatment."

"Ah! That is really the case. I heard even if there is a talent in the branch family, they still cannot learn their best clan jutsu."

All the talk eventually reach Hiashi through the report from his guard. He sighed but did not intend to do anything toward the talkers, or to change the clan's rule. The rule is already assimilated into the clan and even he as the clan leader has no power to change that.

#Rank 3: Uchiha Natsu. Proficient in the Uchiha clan's Taijutsu.

In the screen, a six to seven year old kid is performing a similar to Sasuke's Taijutsu but in a very smooth way.

- Inuzuka Kiba: Who is that kid? he seems to be better than Sasuke. Hey Sasuke, who is he?

- Uchiha Sasuke: Huh? He is my older cousin. He is older than me, that's why he is better than me.

On Zokuto side, he was shocked when he saw the Natsu kid. Other than his black hair, all the other aspect are very similar to a certain character in a certain fairy story. He even got the scarf? Is he a reincarnated person from that story? Zokuto was sure that that Natsu kid is a reincarnator..

- Uchiha Natsu: Hahaha this is interesting. I got listed too huh. But I expected this list to be a fire jutsu fighter ranking list. Well, whatever. Anyway, who is those in the second and first rank? I really wanted to challenge them.

- Hyuuga Neji: Stop with your pointless challenge.

- Uchiha Natsu: Huuh? You wanna fight with me, Neji?

- Hyuuga Neji: You already got beaten yesterday.

- Uchiha Natsu: That is just a fluke. I challenge you to another fight!

- Hyuuga Neji: You are not qualify for that. You will always be defeated however many times you try. It's a fate.

- Uchiha Natsu: Damn Neji! You with your nonsense fate. I dare you to a fight this afternoon.

- Hyuuga Neji: Not interested.

On a certain Uchiha compound, a boy was infuriated when he saw Neji's reply. 'Fine, I'll go to your house and challenge you to a fight.' He then walked out of his house, toward the Hyuuga compound.

#Rank 2: Hyuuga Neji. Proficient in the Hyuuga clan's Taijutsu, Gentle Fist.

In the scene, Neji performed the Gentle Fist with ease and proficiently. He even performed the Palm Revolving Heaven in at the end of his performance.

Bam!

Hyuuga Hiashi frowned when he saw that short play. "This is impossible! How did Neji learn this? Guard, call Hizashi here." However, Hizashi came out first in Hiashi's house.

"Clan Head, I never taught Neji the main house technique. He learned it when he saw you performing the technique while you are teaching Hinata-sama." said Hyuuga Hizashi while bowing a bit toward Hyuuga Hiashi.

Seeing his brother bowing and calling him clan head, Hiashi felt sad and could no longer question on how did Neji learn the technique. In the end, he just waved his hand to signalled for his brother to retreat.

'Sigh. Am I too cruel to my family? Sorry brother. Sorry Hinata.' Hiashi can only bottle up his sadness and apology.

#Rank 1: Uzumaki Zokuto. Proficient in performing the skill Twelve Perfect Gates, Advanced Gentle Fist, and Bijuu Kata.

Another scene showed Zokuto performed the Twelve Perfect Gates up to five gate, after that performing the Gentle Fist in addition to a combo of shockwave in the skill, and after that performing the Bijuu Kata, which showing him in a two tailed mode with nature chakra performing some form of Taijutsu.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Some sound impact magically come out of the golden screen, as if it wanted to amplify Zokuto's performance in all those Taijutsu.

Jinchuuriki!

As Zokuto was shown transforming into a two tailed beast, it caused the expression of all the villagers inside Konoha to change.

Once the village was destroyed because of a Bijuu got out of control from a Jinchuuriki's body. Now, another Jinchuuriki is here inside the village. This is like opening an old wound for the villagers. It's awakened the pain, hatred and fear in their heart.

Outside the Hokage's office.

'Damn the golden screen! Now, all the villager know that Zokuto is Jinchuuriki to the Kyuubi. Some spy may also already making a report for this.' cursed Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Hiruzen, this is bad. Now, the villagers knows that those Uzumaki kids are really Jinchuurikis. I already told you to let me have the Uzumaki kids into the root but you didn't listen." Danzo stated his concern while looking angrily at the Sandaime.

"As I said before, they are not to be put under your root management." Hiruzen scolded back.

"Hiruzen, Danzo is right. Now that their identity is exposed, they should be put under the root." said Homura, supporting Danzo.

"They? Do you not mean only Uzumaki Zokuto? You cannot include Naruto. He is not identified yet." Hiruzen is not keen to listen to the idea of these two old guy. "Anyway, this is also a good thing. If Zokuto is in the picture, Naruto can remain in the shadow without being known as the Kyuubi's Jinchuuriki." added Hiruzen. This is the bright side of showing Zokuto as the Jinchuuriki. Sandaime then called, "Anbu."

A masked guy with a silver hair appeared near the Sandaime.

"Bring me the Uzumakis."

"Roger that." after looking at the Sandaime for a moment, the silver haired anbu disappeared.

- Inuzuka Kiba: what!? It was actually him that got no. 1? How is he able to learn three Taijutsu skill and even being proficient in all of them?

- Hyuuga Neji: How is he able to learn the Hyuuga's technique? There is actually an advanced version of our ninjutsu?

Hyuuga Hiashi was once more got agitated when he saw the scene. How is it that even an outsider is now proficient in using our clan jutsu? No, this technique is somewhat very different!

As Hyuuga Hiashi looked carefully, that Gentle Fist performed by the Uzumaki kid looked more advanced and more powerful. He then hurriedly commanded some guards to go find the kid.

- Uchiha Natsu: Graa! Uzumaki Zokuto, I challenge you to a fight!

- Uchiha Sasuke: No. Uzumaki Zokuto, let me challenge you first.

- Hyuuga Neji: Uzumaki Zokuto, you don't have to care those guys above. Fight me!

- Uchiha Natsu: Damn you Neji. I challenge you to a fight!

- Hyuuga Neji: Who cares about your challenge.

- Uchiha Natsu: I insist. I'm in front of your house!

- Hyuuga Neji: Huh!?

"Neji! I challenge you to a fight!" shouted Natsu. He is already outside of the Hyuuga compound. Neji could hear his loud voice from the outside.

At the Uzumakis apartment.

'This is bad. F@#k the system. Why did it played that scene? Now, everyone knows that I'm a Jinchuuriki.'

[System cannot lie. The system will always shows fact whether from present, past, or future.]

'You F@#ked system! I will be in trouble now because of you. How do you intend to solve this?'

[The probability of host dying after he got exposed is close to zero, with survival rate as high as 100%. There is no need to get anxious.]

'Your probability doesn't apply when it comes to Ninja's logic!' scolded Zokuto. 'I suspect that that evil D will come looking for me to bring me into the roots. Also, those Hyuuga and Sandaime is most certainly come after me. I need to run away.' thought Zokuto.

- The reward for those on the ranking is going to be announced.
