The first test of the exam was a piece of cake, Who would have thought that having a skill like [Great sage] you would never be able to fail a test?... well, I did...
Anyways, after answering the entire test sheet on the first minute, Kaede found out the problem that everyone that is smart have in school... Boredom.
After she completed the test she needed to wait for the others to finish and that was waaay to boring.
After about half of the allocated time for the test passed, Kaede felt something trying to invade her mind and quickly deducted it was Ino
<Warning. Mental attack detected. Initiating counter measures.... Done.
Skill [Mental barrier] acquired
[Mental attack resistance] acquired>
'Aw, so cute! I should pay her back in full during the second test...' Kaede thought as she turned to face Ino with a smile on her face, totally creeping Ino out.
Something that Kaede noticed was that there were a LOT of konoha's gennins in the exam, thinking back to her little 'prank' she couldn't help but smirk.
Most of these idiots were going to die...
"Alright, Time for the tenth question"
Ibikki started his mind games but before he could make enough people back out our favorite (or not) yellow haired idiot made a speech giving a super confidence boost to the mass of mobs
Kaede as well, being the good person we all knew she was, put the ones that had high chances of forfeiting into a illusion, for just long enough for them to pass.
"Ok then, you all... passed"
bla bla bla
A wild Anko appeared and led everyone to the death forest.
While Ibikki was collecting the tests, two of them caught his attention, one of them was totally blank and the other was completed in such a way that anyone from a tech advanced world would think it was made by a computer.
"What are those answers? the final results are all right but the process is something I never heard about before..." Ibikki was impressed by Kaede's advanced calculations, but what can you expect of someone who has a quantum computer in their brain right?
While going to the forest of death, Kaede made 1 clone for each participant of the second test, she put them in their shadows, as a way of tracking them, also as a way to get their bodies when most of them inevitably die, in hopes of getting at least one good skill out of them.
Inside the forest, Kaede left a clone with team 7 and went out to hunt, her target? the sand trio, or more specifically Gaara.
Moving between shadows is very fast in a place like a forest, so Kaede had an advantage here, not that she actually needed it but well...
Moving fast from one participant to another Kaede found something that she didn't expect
One lone idiot, by himself on the forest, and worse still is that she recognized the idiot, he was the chakra sucker, also know as Yoroi the guy Sasuke fought on the preliminaries on the cannon
'Well, don't mind if I do' Entering his shadow, Kaede quickly summoned a lightning strike to kill the man, even though she never used this skill in battle, it was insanely useful, so she trained it with her clones.
Yoroi surprisingly didn't die immediately, but with so much lightning chakra in his body, he was paralyzed, Kaede emerged from his shadow right after
"Oh? he is alive, neat! I can test one or two things here
Fuin: Chakra seal" Kaede made a hand seal, something she never needed before (asides from faking it against Shizue) and slammed her hand on Yoroi's belly.
Black markings spread from his belly, that was a seal
<Affirmative.
Acquiring skill [Chakra seal]... complete>
'Oh? I was wondering why my fuinjutsu never gave me a skill, so I just needed to use it... God, I feel dumb now...
Oh well, I don't have enough time to be wasting here so lets test one more thing and continue on'
Kaede then made another hand seal, this time the purpose was to break the seal she put earlier on Yoroi
"Fuin break technique" The seal broke, but unfortunately Kaede didn't get a skill from it.
One of the only things Kaede was afraid of on this world was fuinjutsu, even tailed beasts that are beings Kaede would place just bellow True dragons on the cardinal world, with Gyukki and Kurama being at the level of said dragons, got sealed away.
Heck, even in the cardinal world Veldora got sealed by Chloe with the [Unlimited imprisonment] unique skill.
"Well, that was disappointing..." Immediately after the failure of acquiring a seal breaking skill, Kaede killed Yoroi with an air slash using [Wind shaping] and [Wind manipulation] and then absorbed his body with [Predator]
<Affirmative.
Unique skill [Chakra absorption] acquired>
A very useful skill, unfortunately Yoroi didn't have a earth affinity, the only one Kaede didn't get yet asides from the rare yang one.
"Beggars can't be choosers" Kaede said as she went inside the shadows once again.
Finding the sand trio proved to be a rather easy task after that, since everywhere the went, one of her clones ended collecting 3 dead bodies and hiding in the shadows. So following their trail she found team 8 observing as Gaara massacred another team
'Ohh! Lucky me' She thought, because she honestly didn't think they would be dumb enough to keep watching closely instead of making use of Hinata's byakugan.
Kaede entered the shadow of the trio and quickly used her [Intimidation] skill on them at full power
"Wh-what is tha-that?" Kiba asked as he barely kept his consciousness, Shinno fared better but wasn't in a good position as well, though Hinata with her weak will, passed out immediately
'I guess Neji was right, for the heir of the Hyuuga clan, that is very pathetic...' Kaede thought
After Hinata passed out, lightning struck both Shinno and Kiba, knocking them out as well, the sand trio didn't notice it as the noise was muffled by the despair filled screams of their opponents and with Kaede's godly chakra control, no chakra leaked to alert them.
emerging from their Shadows, Kaede activated [Stealth] as to not make noise and put a hand above Hinata's left eye
"[Predator]"
Since the eye was absorbed and not plucked, Hinata didn't feel a thing, but who knows if that is good or not. Also, losing her eye will make her shame her clan, and she will probably be put a cursed seal as well, but that is not Kaede's problem
<Affirmative.
Intrinsic skill [Byakugan] acquired>
'Great, Sage keep the byakugan skill active at all times at my left eye, like with the sharingan on the right'
<Affirmative>
Kaede's field of vision changed drastically to almost 360°, though she adapted almost instantly because of [Great sage]'s [Thought acceleration] and [Parallel processing]. The other abilities of the byakugan such as x-ray vision and long range vision are active abilities different from the f.o.v. that is a passive one.
Taking some bandages from her [Stomach], Kaede wrapped her new dojutsu to hide it, since it cab see through the fabric it won't give her any problems as well.
"Now then, to deal with those three... ahh fuck it, I am tired of doing everything in the shadows, I need to teat where my power stands"
Kaede moved out of the bush with team 8 using [Instantaneous movement] and with quick and precise strikes she easily defeated Kankuro and Temari who had their guard down while watching Gaara kill another unfortunate soul, in fear.
Turning her head towards Gaara, she saw a lot of sand coming her way
'Quick response, but that won't help you'
Quickly flickering behind Gaara, she punched and as she expected, the sand defended him
"[Chakra absorption]" Immediately draining the chakra out of the sand shield, Kaede hit Gaara on the head just strong enough to knock someone out.
But she had forgotten a little detail called Sand Armor.
Gaara turned back and controlled the sand to try to smash Kaede's arm
*Smash* After her arm was 'crushed' Kaede jumped back
"Oh no... my arm, what will I ever do now?... Oh, it's back already" Kaede said in a completely disinterested way
Gaara widened his eyes, he never saw someone regenerate an arm instantly before, but that astonishment only turned into more bloodlust against Kaede.
Kaede received a influx of memories from her clone that was with team 7, apparently Pedomaru attacked them, put his hickey on Sasuke and tried to do the same to her clone who dissipated in disgust.
Though Orochimaru seemed to notice her main body's location somehow... so he was coming after her
"Damn... and here I was trying to gauge my strength... screw it then, [Mangekyou sharingan], [Susanoo]"
Resigned that she would need to be quick, Kaede activated her Mangekyou, it had Fugaku's Mangekyou pattern, because of obvious reasons
(Image here)
A skeletal ribcage made out of dark blue chakra envelops Kaede, and a hand made exactly of this chakra quickly tries to capture Gaara. The sand defended him automatically, and he tried to push the hand away with all his might
"Checkmate" Kaede smirks
You see, when Kaede put a clone in the shadow of EVERY participant of the exam, that meant EVERYONE including Pedomaru in disguise and Gaara.
Her clone quickly jumps out of Gaara's shadow and uses the skill [Chakra seal] on him, if the clone could use the unique skill [Chakra absorption] it would be even better but it can't... yet
Gaara's chakra control got messed up by the seal, making his sand drop, the auto shield around him quickly goes away with a move from Kaede's Susanoo.
Kaede herself quickly flickers above Gaara, and turning back into her slime form that she didn't use in years, she completely envelops Gaara
"[Predator]" Kaede begins to absorb Gaara, and even though he tries to resist, the seal messes his chakra up and he ends up losing rather quickly.
<Affirmative.
Skills [Earth manipulation], [Earth shaping] and [Earth conjuration] acquired.
Detected powerful but incomplete seal with powerful chakra in it, use predator to absorb it?>
'Yes' Kaede thought as she reverted back to her previous appearance
<Utilizing skill [Predator] on the seal... done
skill [Imprisonment seal] acquired.
Utilizing skill [Predator] on individual Shukaku... resistance detected, Utilizing skill [Chakra absorption] to support skill [Predator]... estimated time to complete absorption process: 2 days>
'That... is rather quick to be honest, why is it so easy?'
<Affirmative. Shukaku is a being made out of chakra, utilizing the skill [Chakra absorption] alongside [Predator] makes the process much quicker>
'Um. That makes sense'
