Test

Ryu was in a hot spring after selecting his custom-designed outfits.

Sasuke was giving him company. Boruto and Mitsuki were also present. Boruto followed Sasuke since he wanted him to accept him as his student after Ryu's interference ruined their meeting; nonetheless, Boruto still wanted Sasuke to teach him because he was Naruto's only rival, and as for Mitsuki, he followed Boruto wherever he went.

"I'm still confused as to why these guys keep following you."

"What do you think you understand? I am his student, and he will teach me."

Ryu gazed at Sasuke, who didn't respond, indicating his complete disinterest in him for now, despite the fact that he had planned to teach him in the near future.

Ryu immersed his head in the steaming water. He had no interest in Boruto and preferred to keep a safe distance from him because he was a troublemaker.

"Do you plan to attempt suicide by drowning? That is something I would like to see happen."

Ryu couldn't hear a word Boruto just spoke, and that was probably for the best.

Sasuke could tell Ryu was not getting along with others. He had asked the teachers about it. He planned this encounter because he wanted him to become close to Boruto and Mitsuki.

Sasuke drew Ryu's head from the hot water and forced him to sit in a calm manner.

"I don't want all of you fighting in front of me. Make some effort to get along."

"I don't see anything special in him that would make him easy to get along with; he just appears to be a loser to me."

Boruto yelled at him as he stood up from the hot water spring.

"Who are you talking to as a loser?"

"I compared to you as a loser, Loser. Don't make any noise while you're here. I don't want you to compromise the comfort of others."

Boruto took a look around and saw people glaring at him,

Ryu took a deep breath and looked at Mitsuki.

"Mitsuki, Wasn't that your name?"

"Yes, I am Mitsuki."

'Mitsuki, the character that I liked in the series along with Kawaki.'

"You appear to be the strongest in the entire academy, but you try to hide it."

"I'm not sure what you're talking about."

"Having power but not using it is something a fool would do."

"Why don't you use your power? I don't see you accomplishing anything with the powers you have at your disposal."

"How can you be positive that I have not used or am not using my power?" Ryu smirked slightly.

"How do you know I'm not using it as well?"

*Yawn*

Ryu let out a long yawn.

"You're probably correct, but we never know."

Sasuke cast a peek towards Ryu, who was resting back and gazing at the sky.

"Do you have a specific goal in mind?"

Ryu looked at Sasuke and began to wonder, his gaze fixed on the twinkling stars in the sky.

"Goal, Huh!"

'Goal, I do want to be top of this world but this is not something that would matter to me, and now I am just trying to survive. What really is my goal?'

'At first, I wanted to get stronger and doing so I brought too much trouble that I am not even sure I can handle alone.'

Ryu closed his eyes and started to remember all his past and what he had been to up till now.

"My goal, I wonder what is It."

'Just what do I want to accomplish, I have already became strong and I don't see a way to get more stronger without going extreme, I don't have anything I desire.'

'I kept living as I didn't die, for now, I am trying to help the people of this world but I am not on their side either.'

'What is my end goal? I don't have any and I don't think I ever had.'

"I don't have a goal, I am just a lonely soul who has nowhere to go."

"Why don't you try to make friends? you won't be lonely anymore."

"Friends, I don't see anyone who I would be good enough to be considered a friend in this world."

"You just look at the flaw of others when you are not willing to look at yours own. I think you would do a lot better if you fixed that."

"Whatever, I don't even care."

Ryu got out of the bath and went to change his clothes.

Ryu had a new set of clothes for himself that had Uchiha crest embedded on it.

The clothes were not fancy, just normal.clothes with an Uchiha crest.

A full sleeves black T-shirt that had Uchiha crest on its back.

A black trouser with three white strips that.taht reached all the way to the bottom of the trouser with a pair of white shoes with three black strips.

"It will atleast be easier to move with this dress."

Ryu and the other left the hot spring bathhouse and returned to their home.

Ryu and the other left the hot spring bathhouse and returned to their home.

Classes after that,

Ryu slept quietly in the classes without meddling in their affairs, the teachers never bothered with him.

On the day of team selection.

Ryu and Sarada arrived early than other day, he had team assignment going on and a test that he knew Kakashi would be taking instead of their normal teacher. He had especially prepared mask for such occasion, he had plans to give him a heart attack.

Ryu had a mask on his that he planned to put on while he encountered Kakashi and jump on him when everyone goes on playing hide and seek.

'I still have a lot of time before that.'

Now Its time for your team assingment, You will be in the squad and gain proper experience form experienced jonin.

All the students were excited unlike every other day, they were looking forward to becoming a jonin. It was the moment they were waiting for since they joined academy.

Shino started giving out teams for all the students present, Ryu was sitting on the deskn listening to all the assingment.

"Team three: Boruto Uzumaki, Sarada Uchiha and Mitsuki, under Kohohamaru Sarutobi."

and so on and so on.

"Team thirteen: Ryu Uchiha, Sumire Kakei and , Namida suzumeno Hanabi Hyuga."

Ryu chuckled for a second after listening to his team assingment.

'Hanabi Hyuga, Sister of Hinata Hyuga. I wonder why was I choosen to be in that team.'

'She does have a dojutsu, maybe that's why.'

Ryu raised his hand, asking for question to Shino.

"Will there be test for getting in the team?"

*Cough*

Shino glanced at Ryu, he was informed of the test but It was different this year as Kakashi was going on with that.

"You will have one, you will see when you get there."

'It is the same as the series, It will be fun.'

Everyone had the same team assignment with just a slight different change due to Ryu's involvement but It didn't affect the overall squads.

Ryu and everyone else were brought to a huge field with wide open space fled with forest and bushes, perfect for assassination

"This is where It is going to be held."

Ryu approached Sarada, she was observing the surrounding to be prepared for upcoming test.

Ryu whispered in Sarada's ear.

"A battle will take place for sure, how about trying a head on fight with chidori for the very beginning."

Sarada flinched as he heard his words, using chidori was overkill as It was made to kill.

"I don't think we are supposed to kill here, and it's Fighting a jonin Headon suicide for Shinobi of our level."

'She is rational, I will give her that.'

Ryu gave a evil smirked, and Sarada felt a chill as she looked at the Ryu's smirk.

"At least you are not fool, you must finish this with co-operation, I don't believe they will make this exam easy."

Three figures emerged from the bushes and landed on a tree; Shino aburame, Sarutobi Konohamaru and Anko.

Shino looked at Boruto and his group messing around when test was just about to begin.

"All of you seem pretty relaxed."

Everyone looked at the voice, that came from above the tree.

"Shino-sensei!"

They landed on the ground and looked at the group and people.

"I am going to explain the rules for the final practical exam."

"First all of you tie your white bandana's around your forehead."

Ryu picked up his bandana and wrapped wound his forehead and began to listen to the rules. He had a mask on his face to cover it.

"In the exam, this will represent your lives. If yours is taken, you fail." Shino explained the use of white bandana that they all just wrapped around their forehead

Konohamaru approached the students that just tied their bandana.

"Consider this an actual battle situation, your arena is this entire forest, the enemy you are battling is us and the time limit is next 24 hours."

All three pressed the huge target shaped device that had blue lights and It turned into red.

"By the way, the target we are wearing is just like your bandana's, if you destroyed it, It would be like you defeated us and we won't be able to fight back." Anko started explaining the rules.

Boruto had a smug face as he looked at the tea hers Infront of them that they needed to battle.

"We have to go against Shino-sensei and others, This is gonna be easy."

Sarada head that whispered to Boruto.

"We have to face Konohamaru-sensei, he is aiming to be Hokage."

"Then this is less of a big deal. Listen, this bandana and target are only going to get on the way, I say we fight like normal people."

"Then We would wouldn't be able to use desgression, would we?" A figure arrived at the scene.

The proctor finally arrived, and It was none other than Hatake Kakashi.

"It's Lord sixth!"

Boruto looked at Kakashi with shock, and asked excitedly.

"What are you doing here, Old man kakashi?"

Kakashi raised one of his hand at Boruto.

"Hey Boruto."

Kakashi whispered to Boruto's ears.

"Call me Lord sixth Infront of other, I know it's annoying but still."

"Uh...sure? but what are you even doing out here Old man lord sixth?"

"What am I doing out here, well...I am going to be the proctor for the test."

"Huh!" All the students present with a surprised expression.

All sort of mumblings started to take place.

"Lord sixth is going to be the proctor!"

"I need to to confirm how strong I am!"

Boruto was about to start with his old mocking speech when he got kicked out of the way and sent flying landing on his face by a masked man who everyone recognized.

Ryu kicked Boruto, he was already annoyed just how he said it was easy and he knew what would his next words be, so he decided to get shut his mouth for him.

All the students went silent when Ryu kicked Boruto Infront of Kakashi and the others, they knew he was trouble.

Boruto furiously spoke turning his head.

"Which bastard kicked me?"

"It was me, got any problem with that."

Boruto recognized him in first glance although he had a mask on. He gritted his teeth and stayed quiet, he had already been beaten countless time by Ryu and because of that he knew what was best.

Kakashi was surprised when Boruto didn't retaliate and attack Ryu, Kakashi even had a smile under his mask but he didn't recognize him from the list but he knew who it was as shino talked about him and Naruto described him as a surprise for him.

"Who are you?"

"I am Uchiha Ryu, Some newbie that joined academy a week ago."

"So, you are also one of the trouble maker."

Ryu and Kakashi stared at each other, he didn't know how Ryu looked like as he never saw his picture due to Naruto telling him it was something he should see for himself.

"Tell us the rules, I made your work easier by shutting his mouth."

Kakashi took out a single bell out of his pocket and showed them to the students.

"If you are able to take this bell from me you pass, How does that sound. by the way, headbands and bandana's are for clarifying our decision if need be."

"We wouldn't want to go over board and kill somebody."

"You all are bunch of trouble maker and we don't need troublemaker as shinobi. I will judge if you are worthy to be a Shinobi."

All the students had troubled expression on their faces.

"How can you do this?" A the students began complaining.

Ryu started laughing in a loud voice, everyone could hear him and started looking at him.

"Hahaha, Hahaha, Hahaha, Funny!"

Anko stared at Ryu, and said in a threatening tone.

"What's so funny about it?"

"I can't believe you expect to scare us in such way.Hahaha" Ryu in a joking manner.

Ryu suddenly got serious and said to Anko on a threatening tone.

"Why don't we begin the test already? It's just a waste to talk like that."

"Hah! Kids these days, The test begin now."

As all four of them jumped to get a location of hiding, they were obstructed.

All the students were confused as well when they saw that scene before them.

A light green color barrier suddenly surrounded them with all four sides blocking their way, the instructors couldn't move from the location as a result.

Kakashi and the instructor thought it was an enemy attack but that's when they noticed.

Four figures that looked like Ryu on all four sides with mask on their faces were the ones forming the barrier.

"Hehehe, You instructors are not going anywhere, I will be facing all of you right here with all the students as a back up and I don't believe I break the rules, Am I wrong?"

Kakashi was impressed, as Ryu ahd already planned for this before the test bags that meant he had predicted all these things and had planned ahead of time and being able to build the barrier was no small feat.

"You planned for all this beforehand unlike others who just wasted time but I don't see how you plan to take on four jonin."

"I have surpassed the level of my father when he was of my age that should be a satisfactory answer."

"Huh! I don't still see how you would win."

Ryu slowly put his mask off slowly reveling his face to Kakashi.

Kakashi eyes widened as he looked at the face before him, he couldn't believe his own eyes and pinched himself to confirm he wasn't seeing things.

"Itachi!"

Anko and Shino frowned as they heard Kakashi mutter the word "Itachi" while other students were surprised how the tension suddenly raised drastically.

"I don't think I need to tell you who my father is from this face and my name."

"I don't believe I would need one, You face tells.ypur whole background."

Ryu put hands on his face and gave an evil smirk.

"I put my wood clones before to have this face off, don't disappoint me."

Kakashi was ready for the battle, If what Ryu told was true then he would need to push himself to the limits to stand a chance against him but he thought It was unlikely.

Ryu activated his Sharingan and looked at Kakashi while Kakashi.

"Wood style: Wood clone."

Three wood clones sprouted out of Ryu and we're looking face to face with the instructors.

"This are wood clones, the technique used by your first Hokage and they are going to hold the teachers and all the students you need to atta k the target in their body and believe me these clone would suffice against them."

Shino, Konohamaru and Anko took that as an insult as no matter what, How could a clone be able to hold them.

"Kid, you are looking down on us even more than. Boruto." Anko glared at Ryu.

"Then prove it by defeating them."

*Tch*

Kakashi and Ryu were waiting for each other to make a move while the three clones had just began their battle.

"Susano" *3

Three black humanoid figure emerged out of three clones covered their body totally, It was same susano Madara used on 5 kage with his wood clones.

"Kakashi saw the three black susano and frowned, he knew the real power of Susano and he even knew to us Susano he would need to have Mangekyou Sharingan."

Kakashi now no longer underestimated him, the susano was enough to prove that to him.

*Baam*

*Crackle*

*Baam*

The three wood clones were holding three jonins but he knew It wouldn't be for too long.

*Clank*

Ryu and Kakashi kunei clashed with each other and both were focused on the battle predicting other predictions.

The students couldn't believe Ryu actually fighting three jonins and one Kage at the same time.

"This is beyond absurd, how powerful is he actually."

Kakashi dodged the kunai attack and kicked Ryu on his stomach.

*Boom*

It suddenly exploded right on his leg, the students were just busy looking at battle with wide open mouth.

"Exploding shadow clone."

Ryu was on the tree as he said the words and the students had no idea when he got there.

The dust fade out and they looked at where Kakashi was and discovered a log.

"Substitution!"

"I never expected It to be this easy anyways, It's within my expectation."
