The atmosphere in the viewing room had settled into comfortable anticipation. After fourteen chapters of watching Kyo's journey, everyone had grown attached to the young Saiyan and his friends.
"Finally, the bell test," Naruto said, leaning forward. "I wonder how different it'll be with Kyo's power level."
"And with four team members instead of three," Sasuke added thoughtfully.
---
Satsuki, Naruko, Hanabi, and Hinata are down to their butt after hours of training, while Sakura is down to her knees, exhausted. Asuka watches them with a smile; she doesn't train with them; she watches them train.
"Even without her chakra, Asuka found her role," Tsunade observed warmly. "She's their coach and caretaker."
"It must be hard though," Shizune added sympathetically. "Watching them train when she can't."
Asuka clapped her hands with a smile. "Everyone! That's enough for today. Tomorrow you all have a test, don't you?"
Sakura groans, "Oh My Kami-Sama! Is this what Kyo-Kun is training for every day?"
Satsuki scoffed as she said. "Sakura, we didn't do the Kyo doing. This is what we're doing three times a week."
"And we've seen Kyo's training," Lee said with admiration. "His workout would kill most jonin!"
"Remember when he was six and already doing adult exercises?" Tenten added.
Sakura sweatdrops when she learns, "You got to be kidding me..."
Hinata shook her head, "N-No, we didn't. No one can keep up with the Kyo training method, we tried it once, but the result is not pretty..."
"Guy's training combined with Saiyan physiology," Kakashi mused. "A terrifying combination."
"I felt hopeless for a week," Hanabi said as she shivered.
"Even little Hanabi couldn't handle it," Hiashi noted with concern.
Naruko nodded, "Yeah, I felt every bone and muscle broken for a week, Dattebayo!"
"That's the training that let him fight Taros at age six," Minato reminded everyone.
Sakura was shocked, "I still can't believe we aren't doing what Kyo is doing."
Asuka sighed, "It's true, Sakura-San. Just look what Kyo is doing now."
They all look at Kyo.
Kyo is doing very hardcore training; he fires two Ki blasts at random trees, but this time is different. The Ki blast flies around and comes back toward Kyo, and The Ki separates into many Ki blasts.
"His Ki control has improved dramatically," Hiruzen observed. "Making them return and split - that's advanced manipulation."
"He's training like he's his own opponent," Madara noted with approval. "Smart."
Sakura was shocked when she knew Kyo could use some of 'Ninjutsu', but more shocked when the raven-haired boy's attack came back to him as she yelled, "Kyo-Kun, watch out!"
"She doesn't understand it's intentional," Shikamaru observed.
Every girl is shocked and scared if anything happens to Kyo. Kyo closes his eyes and opens them again; he backflips and dodges every Ki blast from left to right.
"His spatial awareness has improved since fighting Taros," Neji noted analytically.
Kyo manages to dodge everything until the last one catches him off guard and hits him right on his chest. Ki's ball explodes right at the time it hits Kyo's chest with a loud boom.
"Even his own Ki can hurt him," Tsunade observed. "Good - means he's not invincible."
"KYO-/KUN!" The girl yells in worry as they walk closer.
"They care so much about him," Mito said warmly.
The smoke of dust is everywhere from Kyo Ki's blast and the one that hit him. Girls run toward the dust and search for Kyo. They can't see a thing in that smoke of dust, so they wait for the dust to clear out, and then they hear Kyo groan.
"Ow... that's hurt..." Kyo yelped in pain as he could see his slightly bleeding right chest.
"At least he can still be injured," Sasuke noted. "Keeps him grounded."
"KYO!" Naruko and the others saw Kyo and ran toward him.
"YOU IDIOT! WHY YOU DO THAT!" Satsuki said in anger as she punched Kyo's injury on his chest.
"That's exactly what you'd do," Naruto said to Sasuke with a grin.
"Shut up, dobe."
"Ite! (Ow!), why do you do that, Satsuki-Chan?" Kyo asks while holding his injury.
Satsuki scoffed while looking away from the adopted Uchiha and said, "It's just your small punishment."
"Classic Uchiha response," Mikoto giggled. "Hide concern with violence."
Sakura comes closer to Kyo with a worried look on her face. "Are you okay?"
Kyo sighs as he smiles, "Yeah, I'm fine. This is nothing."
"Compared to what Taros did to him, it probably is nothing," Jiraiya observed.
"Are you sure?" Hanabi asks with concern.
"Yup," Kyo said with a smile as suddenly he felt someone hold his shoulder with scared intensity behind his back.
"Oh no," Kushina said with a growing grin. "Here it comes!"
"The technique you taught Naruko?" Minato asked nervously.
"YUP!" Yuri reply with a smile.
Kyo didn't feel this scared and intense for a long time seeing his mother's death. He slowly turned his back and saw Hinata, Asuka, and Naruko smile at him with their eyes closed. An orange Demon mask appeared behind Naruko. A purple Demon mask appears on Hinata's back, and a brown Demon mask appears on Asuka's back.
"They've mastered it!" Yuri said proudly, though she was confused. "But when did Naruko learn to teach others?"
"The student becomes the teacher," Kushina laughed evilly.
Kyo was trembling as he slowly backed away, 'K-Kaa-San, why did you teach Naruko-Chan your scary technique before you left us, and why does Naruko-Chan teach Hinata-Chan and Asuka-Chan too...'
"Because it works!" Yuri and Kushina said in unison, causing every male in the room to shudder from memories.
---
In the afterlife, Yuri is chatting with Kushina, and then suddenly, both of the women feel proud of their Naruko.
"Of course we are!" both mothers said proudly.
---
Back to Kyo and the others. Kyo slowly backwards slightly.
Naruko gives a scary smile with her eyes closed. "How about we teach you about... Not trying NOT to get us worried like that again, is that okay, NII-CHAN?!"
"The way she says Nii-chan when angry," Kiba shuddered. "Terrifying."
Hinata gives a scary giggle. "I agree with that."
"My sweet daughter has been corrupted," Hiashi said faintly.
"Improved," Kushina corrected.
Asuka gives a scary smile and giggles, "K-YO-KUN."
Satsuki looked at her scary friend, thinking, 'Maybe I should rethink learning that technique.'
"Smart girl," Mikoto said quickly. "Very smart."
Sakura and Hanabi sweatdrop as they both thought the same thing. 'Oh kami, that's scary!'
Kyo saw Naruko, Hinata, and Asuka walk up to him as Kyo got more scared. "No, no, please stop! I'll do anything!"
"He's already surrendering," Naruto said with sympathy. "I know that fear."
They didn't stop, and the Naruko Demon mask got bigger.
Kyo is scared and covers himself. "NOOO!!"
"Whatever they did to him off-screen must have been terrible," Kakashi said with genuine sympathy.
---
Kyo wakes in the early morning. He felt a slight pain in his body from the punishment he received yesterday. He gets up off his bed and feels something heavy on his body. He turned his head from left to right and saw Naruko and Satsuki on both sides, asleep too close beside him, wearing pyjamas.
"This is becoming their routine," Temari observed with amusement.
"After watching them for 14 chapters, I'm not even surprised anymore," Shikamaru added lazily.
'Why are they sleeping with me?' Kyo thought as he tried to wake them up with a blush and said in a low tone, "G-Girls... wake up, it's already morning..." And he tries to free his hand, but they grip strongly.
"They've got him trapped," Ino giggled.
The Saiyan boy tries again, accidentally grabbing their chest, making them moan a little bit. Kyo blushed even harder, 'Oh shit! But feels nice... Wait, what the fuck I'm saying! Naruko is my sister! But she adopted, so this is fine... No NO! BAD KYO!'
"The eternal struggle," Jiraiya said wisely before Tsunade's fist found his head.
"At least he's trying to be respectful," Minato said, remembering his own awkward teenage years.
While blushing like a red tomato, he tries to move again, but his hand is back in the same position. Suddenly, he realises that Naruko is awake and blushing.
"She's awake?!" Sakura gasped. "She's pretending!"
"Clever girl," Anko laughed. "Taking advantage of the situation."
"Nii-chan~ I didn't know you, such a naughty boy~." The blond girl said it was just to tease him.
"She's gotten bold over the years," Kushina said proudly. "That's my girl!"
Kyo was blushing like a red tomato, and he stuttered, "N-No, it's not like it looks like. It's an accident. I didn't mean to!"
"Well, I don't mind if it was you, Nii-Chan~," Naruko said with a blush on her face as she pulled her clothes to give him a clear view.
"NARUKO!" Several voices shouted, though most were laughing.
"She knows what she wants," Temari observed with amusement.
Kyo blushes madly as he looks away with an eye-corner glance, "Naruko, please don't call me that, and please don't pull that down!" He covers his face with his right arm.
"Still trying to be a gentleman despite everything," Mikoto noted approvingly.
Then Kyo heard Satsuki groan.
"To... much... noise..." Satsuki leans toward Kyo and hugs him.
The Uchiha girl's pyjamas slipped away from her bare breasts and touched him.
"SATSUKI!" Fugaku's eyes widened, though he'd gotten somewhat used to his daughter's boldness over the chapters.
"Accidental or intentional?" Itachi wondered aloud.
Kyo feels her bare breast on his left arm; she is still half asleep. Kyo can't take it anymore, his blood reaching his head and reaching his limits.
"System overload incoming," Shino stated matter-of-factly.
"PURE HAVEN!! GAH!" Jiraiya yelled, and soon he woke up just to get knocked out again by Tsunade.
Kyo shot blood from his nose and fell back to his bed, and fell unconscious. Naruko giggled at Kyo's action, and then she heard a door open and revealed Asuka with an emotionless face.
"Perfect timing as always," Kakashi observed.
"Ohayo!(Morning!) Asuka-Chan!" Naruko said with a smile.
"..." Asuka went into shock.
"That silence speaks volumes," Kurenai noted.
"Naruko... can you keep it down?" Satsuki groans while brushing her eyes. She awakens and feels cold in her chest. She looked down and saw her bare B-cup breasts out.
Satsuki let out a loud 'EPP' and covered herself.
"The embarrassment finally hits," Sasuke observed dryly.
"Sorry for the interruption..." Asuka closes the door.
Satsuki quickly gets out of bed, "Asuka, wait, it's not what it looks like!"
"But it kind of is," Anko pointed out with a grin. "Perfect Morning to awake hahaha."
"Anko stop" Kurenai sigh.
"My Naruko is so bold..." Yuri said with a sad smile.
"It's okay, Yuri, she's gonna claim Kyo-Chan very soon," Kushina said with a huge smile as Yuri sighed.
---
Later, the others were prepared for the test, and Asuka called her best friends. "Naruko, Satsuki, let's go, or you guys are gonna be late!"
"After all that morning chaos, they still have to do the bell test," Asuma chuckled.
"Wait up. We were almost done!" Naruko shouts back.
Kyo sits at the dining table, watching Asuka prepare for the launch, feeling sad because he can't eat.
"No breakfast for a Saiyan," Choji said sympathetically. "That's true torture."
"Especially after all his training," Naruto added. "He must be starving!"
"I think he already ate yesterday," Shikamaru said.
"That doesn't count!" Naruto yells at Shikamaru.
5 mins later, Naruko and Satsuki come down.
"Sorry for the wait, Kyo." Satsuki apologizes.
Naruko looks at the Saiyan boy, "Um... Kyo?"
Kyo didn't hear them. He keeps looking at the food.
"Food hypnosis," Naruto said with complete understanding. "Been there."
Asuka giggle, "Kyo-Kun..."
Kyo was drooling at the food as he snapped and replied, "Ha? Yeah?"
"Poor boy," Mito said sympathetically.
"My baby is so hungry!" Yuri said it with a sad smile.
Satsuki smiled as she said, "We're gonna be late for the test, Kyo."
Kyo quickly wiped his mouth as he said, "Oh right, don't let Kakane-Sensei and Sakura-Chan wait for us."
"Even starving, he thinks of others," Iruka noted proudly.
"I think Sakura is already there, but Kakane-Sensei, I think she will be late too, like last time. Bye, Asuka-chan!" Naruko said while waving at Asuka.
"Please make a ton of food, Asuka-Chan," Kyo said with a smile.
"Already planning the victory feast," Guy approved. "CONFIDENCE!"
Asuka nodded, "I think if you all pass the test, why don't we eat ramen for today?"
"RAMEN!" Naruto and Kushina cheered reflexively.
Naruko smiles brightly, "Oh, I'm so going to pass. It's been so long since we last ate ramen together.
"Proper motivation achieved," Kushina laughed.
---
Two Hours later. On the front of the big gate/outside Konoha. Kyo and the Girls have been training for a while now, and Kyo got something on his mind.
"Two hours of training while waiting," Lee said admiringly. "Excellent use of time!"
"Umm, Naruko, Satsuki, can you girls come over here?" Kyo calls the blond girl and the raven-haired girl.
Satsuki walked toward Kyo, "What is it?"
Kyo looked at both of them as he said, "Well, something on my mind."
"Here comes the question," Ino said, leaning forward.
"What is it?" Naruko asks.
"Why did you two sleep in my room yesterday? Is something happening?" Kyo worries that the two of them got nightmares or something that makes them sleep with him.
"He's so innocent," Hinata said softly. "He thinks they had nightmares."
"After everything, he's been through, he still assumes the best," Tsunade observed.
Naruko giggles as she replies. "Nothing happens, Nii-chan. Yesterday, we just felt like sleeping with you~."
"So casual about it now," Sakura noted.
Kyo sweatdrops and sighs. "Naruko-chan, what did I tell you about Nii-Chan stuff?"
"He really doesn't like that title from her," Sasuke observed.
Naruko giggles at Kyo, but the conversation hears by Sakura.
Sakura ran toward Naruko and shook her back and forth. "Wait, What!? You sleep with Kyo-kun! Yesterday! Please tell me this is a joke!"
"Poor Sakura just found out," Ino said sympathetically.
Satsuki glared. "You got a problem with that?"
"Protective mode activated," Mikoto noted with amusement.
Sakura glares back and lets go of Naruko. "Of course I'm. Don't you three live in a spread house? How is that possible?"
Sakura didn't know Kyo had lived with these girls for years.
"She doesn't know their history," Kakashi observed.
Naruko sighed, "Sakura, we three have lived together for seven years now!"
"Since the massacre," Sasuke said quietly, understanding the bond they'd formed.
Sakura was surprised. "Say what!"
Kyo sighed as he explained, "Sakura-Chan, chill out. Naruko and I have lived together since we were born, and Sasuki started to live with us since our clan was massacred."
"He's so patient explaining," Iruka noted approvingly.
Sakura nodded as she asked, "Oh, okay, but that doesn't explain why they slept in your room last night."
"Valid question," Tenten said.
Kyo rubbed his back hair and replied, "Um... that I didn't know. Maybe you should ask Naruko or Sasuki instead."
"Deflection technique," Shikamaru noted lazily.
"No need to ask Sakura. I will put it simply, why we sleep with him." Satsuki signals to Naruko to make her nod, and then they both surprise Sakura.
"What are they planning?" Several people asked.
Satsuki and Naruko when to kiss Kyo on his cheek.
"Double attack!" Anko cheered.
"Clear message sent," Temari observed.
"Poor my other self..." Sakura sigh.
Satsuki smirked. "Now, you know, right?"
Kyo, on the other hand, blushes like mad. At the same time, Sakura gasped in shock.
"He's still not used to affection after all these years," Yuri said fondly.
Satsuki and Naruko went back to their training, leaving Kyo and Sakura still frozen about what had just happened.
"They broke them," Kiba laughed.
'Why are they so bold today? Why... was something that happened last night?' Kyo thought while blinking his eyes multiple times.
"If only he knew," Shino stated.
---
•Flashback•
"Oh, now we'll learn what happened," Hiruzen said with interest.
Yesterday night at Kyo's house.
Naruko can't sleep. She had a nightmare from her past, so she decided to go to Kyo's room. When she arrived, she saw Satsuki about to enter Kyo's room.
"Great minds think alike," Kushina observed.
"Umm... Satsuki.. what were you doing here?" Naruko asks in a whispering tone.
"I-I umm, I just walked past, but what are u doing here?" Satsuki makes an excuse.
"Terrible liars," Itachi noted with amusement.
"Um... I came as you, just passing by." Naruko makes the same excuse.
"Same excuse even," Sasuke observed dryly.
They were silent for a while, exchanging a glance, and then they revealed the truth.
Naruko and Satsuki groaned as they said, "Ohh, Cut The Crap!"
The room chuckled at their synchronized honesty.
"Satsuki, I have to tell you that... I-I love Kyo!" Naruko confessed first.
"Direct and honest," Minato said approvingly.
"That's my Naruko!" Kushina squealed in happiness.
Satsuki shook her head, "I'm sorry, but I also love Kyo too!"
"Both admitting it," Mikoto said warmly.
Yuri sighs as she knows she can't do anything but to support like Mikoto and Kushina did.
They went into silence once more until Naruko was the one who broke the silence.
"Satsuki, if we both love him, how about we share him because I don't want our friendship to be broken if we fight over him. I know what I said is nonsense, but I don't want to lose my best friend chasing after Kyo like Sakura and Ino did." Naruko said, tears in her eyes. She really didn't want to lose her best friend because they loved the same man.
The room went quiet at the emotional maturity.
"That's..." Sakura started, looking at Ino.
"Really mature," Ino finished, both thinking of their own past rivalry.
"She values friendship over competition," Mito said warmly.
Satsuki walks toward her and hugs her. Satsuki also has tears in her eyes. "I-I... is okay, Naruko, I think that's a good idea too... well, I agree that we share him, but what about Hinata? She told us that she loves Kyo too?"
"They're thinking of Hinata too," Hiashi noted, somewhat touched.
"Real friendship," Neji observed.
Naruko nodded, and she knew that pretty clearly. "Don't worry about her... I'm sure she will agree."
"She knows her friends well," Kurenai noted as Hinata blushed when she thought about sharing.
"Then? What about other girls?" Satsuki, who didn't like someone she didn't know, became Kyo's lover.
"Setting boundaries," Fugaku approved.
Naruko tilts her head to the side, "Well, if they love Kyo because of his personality, not his appearance or his power, so why not? If they want to share, I say."
"That's surprisingly open-minded," Tsunade observed.
Satsuki sighed, "Okay, then, I hope you know what you were doing, Naruko."
"Relax, I know what I'm doing... So you want to sneak into Kyo's bed with me?" Naruko smiles with a smile.
"And there's the mischief," Jiraiya chuckled before being preemptively punched.
"Why not? That is the reason I came here in the first place..." Satsuki blunts out as she closes her mouth.
"She admitted it!" Several people laughed.
"Ha! I knew it!" Naruko laugh.
Satsuki quickly scoffed. "Well, you are the same, are you?"
"Hehe." Naruko gives a sheepish laugh.
"Perfect for each other," Anko observed.
They open Kyo's room door and see Kyo is heavily asleep, so they decide to sleep. They got to his bed, kissed him on the cheek, and then fell asleep.
"Sweet," Mito said warmly.
Unknown to them, Asuka had been listening to what they were saying. She holds her chest and feels slightly sad. She likes Kyo too, even though she acts like a big sister to Kyo, but she also wants Kyo to see her as a woman.
"Asuka has feelings too," Kurenai said sympathetically.
But will Kyo accept her imperfection?
"Her scars," Tsunade said sadly. "She's worried about them."
"Kyo saved her life. He won't care about scars," Naruto said firmly.
---
•Flashback End•
Kyo gains his senses back and sees Sakura waving at him. She is so close to him, and then suddenly, Kunai is flying toward them and gets stuck on the tree between them both.
"SATSUKI!" Mikoto gasped, though she was used to her daughter's jealousy by now.
Kyo and Sakura scream as the pinkte said, "Wahhh! Hey, what was that for!?"
"Oops.. my hand slipped.." Satsuki said in a cold tone and walked back to Naruko.
"Sure it did," Sasuke said dryly.
Naruko looked at the raven-haired girl as she said, "Hey, why do you do that, Satsuki? You forgot what we talked about yesterday?"
"Reminding her of the agreement," Shikamaru noted.
Satsuki sighed, "I almost forgot. Thanks for reminding me."
"Emotions got the better of her," Itachi observed.
Suddenly, Kakane arrives and walks toward them. "Hey girls, hey Cutie, sorry-sorry, I'm late. I got a black cat on my path. I have to take a long road to get here, sorry."
"Still with the inappropriate nickname," Tsunade said disapprovingly.
"And terrible excuses," Kakashi added, embarrassed by his counterpart.
Naruko glares at Kakane, "You better be sorry, it is already afternoon!"
"Afternoon?!" Asuma said. "That's excessive even for a Hatake."
---
In the Training field, Team 7 is ready to take the test.
"Finally," Sasuke said, leaning forward.
"So what is the test? Kakane-Sensei?" Kyo asks.
"Well, that's a good question, Cutie. I will test you with this." Kakane pulled out three bells from her pocket as she continued her words, "Well, you four must get this bell before noon, for you guys can't eat and will be sent back to the Academy. Is it clear?"
"Three bells, four students," Shino observed. "Classic teamwork test."
"But with Kyo's power level..." Neji trailed off.
"YES! Kakane-Sensei!" They both said at the same time.
Kakane pulls out her hand and is ready to count. "Well, the test will begin in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1."
All of them disappeared from that location when all of Kakane's fingers were down.
"Good initial response," Guy noted.
"Ohh, good strategy," Kakane said while investigating her students. 'Hmm, good, always on guard but still lack how to hide properly.'
"Their stealth needs work," Yamato observed.
Before the white hair teacher investigates a little more, Kyo ambushes Kakane with multiple flying kicks that surprise her. She can't dodge it, so she takes the hit.
"Direct assault!" Lee exclaimed. "YOUTH!"
"He's not playing around," Madara observed approvingly.
Kakane sends a couple of feet away and falls into the trap that Naruko, Satsuki, and Sakura have made before they start the test. Once she reached the trap, she vanished in a cloud of smoke, leaving only a wooden log.
"Good teamwork," Hiruzen noted. "They prepared beforehand."
"Damn it!" All girls groaned in frustration.
Kyo stayed on his guard as he said, "Girls, on your guard! She is still here somewhere."
"Good awareness," Hiashi observed.
"Well, we should split up and find her!" Naruko said as two of the girls nodded, except Kyo, and disappeared.
"No!" Kakashi said immediately. "Never split the party!"
"Girls, I don't think that is a good, Idea!" Kyo shouts to tell them, but it is no use. They have already gone. Kyo sighed, "I guess I have to work alone now." He also disappeared in speed.
"He knew better," Minato observed.
While Kakane looks from afar, she gives an eye smile and looks at her student's action, 'Well, that's true, Cutie, you guys should work as a team. Well, I'll teach them a lesson then.'
"Divide and conquer," Tobirama noted.
---
Sakura is hiding under a bush, waiting for Kakane to appear. Still, that strategy did not work well when Kakane had already found her.
"Bush hiding," Sasuke said flatly. "Classic mistake."
Kakane smiled under her mask and said, "Hi, Sakura." She makes Sakura go into shock in surprise.
"Gahh!" Sakura stood up and saw that Kakane was not there.
"Psychological warfare," Ibiki noted approvingly.
Then Sakura hears something not far from her location, and she sees Kyo beaten really badly. She is shocked and runs toward him. "Kyo-kun!"
"Genjutsu," everyone said immediately.
"Sakura, please tell the team that we got bandits here," Kyo said weakly
"That doesn't even sound like him," Naruto noted.
"Kyo-kun! Hey, are you okay!?" Sakura walked toward him and lifted Kyo's face. She saw the horror on his face that he had no eyeball, only an empty eye socket.
"Harsh genjutsu for a test," Kurenai said disapprovingly.
"GAHHH!!" Sakura screamed in fear as she fainted a second later.
"Poor Sakura," Ino said sympathetically.
"It's terrifying," Sakura mumbled, and she still remembered what she saw with her vision.
Kakane sighed, "You should know that a Genjutsu Sakura, well, whatever, one down, 3 to go."
---
Naruko and Satsuki are hiding in the trees, but Kakane can still see them.
"Their hiding skills need improvement," Yamato noted.
"Yo, Satsuki, Naruko." She appears behind them.
They both jump off from their hiding place. Naruko throws a shuriken at Kakane, who dodges, while Satsuki dodges using her proud clan, Jutsu.
"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" Satsuki yells.
"Good coordination," Fugaku noted.
It hits Kakane, but they realise it is a clone.
"Clone tactics," Kakashi said. "Classic."
"What?!" Naruko and Satsuki said at the same time.
"That petty good combo there, but you all should know where the true enemy is." Kakane appears behind them and knocks them out. But when she hit Naruko, she popped into smoke. Kakane was surprised, "Kage Bunshin?"
"She knows it!" Hiruzen said with interest.
Ryo sat up straighter with pride. "I taught her that," he said quietly, then glanced nervously at Yuri.
"When did you teach her Kage Bunshin?" Yuri asked, turning to her husband with narrowed eyes.
"Um... well..." Ryo rubbed the back of his head nervously.
"Well, I'm glad she learn it, it's not Naruto or Naruko Uzumaki without a shadow clone!" Naruto said with a huge smile and jumped in joy.
Kakane saw Large Shuriken flying toward her. She dodges it when Shuriken passes her. It pops into Naruko.
"Transformation combo!" Naruto said excitedly. "Classic!"
Naruko grabs her feet and slams down to the ground as she celebrates, "Yatta!"But her happiness died when she saw Kakane pop into a wooden log.
"Another substitution," everyone said knowingly.
Kakane appears behind the blonde as she says, "That was good, Naruko. Who told you to use Kage Bunshin?"
Naruko knows the Kage Bunshin from her adopted father as she replies, "My father... Gah..."
Ryo beamed with pride despite Yuri's glare. "She remembered my teachings!"
"We'll discuss this secret training later," Yuri said ominously, making Ryo gulp.
Naruko passed out when Kakane hit her back.
"3 down, 1 to go," Kakane said as she sensed someone was behind her, hiding behind the tree. Kakane smiles under the mask. "Cutie, you can come out now."
"Final confrontation," Lee said eagerly.
Kyo steps out from his hiding and is ready to fight.
"Well, it is only you and me. How about we stop the fight, and I give you this bell." She tests him to see if he wants to take the hard road or the easy way.
"Testing his character," Hiruzen noted approvingly.
Kyo shakes his head, "Nope, I will try to get it my own way."
"Good answer!" Guy shouted. "The power of youth doesn't take shortcuts!"
Kakane giggles, "If you say so~."
"She's enjoying this too much," Kurenai noted.
Kyo is the one who makes the first move. He drags out his Kunai and fights her. They both parry, dodge, attack, and counter.
"His taijutsu has improved dramatically since he was six," Hiashi observed.
Kakane tried to attack and parry at the same time as she said, "Cutie, you're faster than I thought."
"Still flirting during combat," Tsunade said disapprovingly.
Kyo was attacked and parried as he smiled and said, "Thank you, Kakane-Sensei, then how about this!"
He clashed the Kunai with hers, causing both to fly away. Kakane uses the same technique Sasuki uses.
"Smart disarming," Kakashi noted.
"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu"
Kyo is so close to Kakane that he has to use his right-eye power to parry it. He closes his eyes and only opens his right eye, revealing his Blue Sharingan.
"There's the Blue Sharingan!" Sasuke said, leaning forward. "We saw it awaken in the hospital."
"It's still beautiful," Mikoto said admiringly. "Ki-enhanced Sharingan."
The Saiyan boy parries the attack as the fireball flies away from him and disappears into the sky. Kyo holds the arm up. "This fight will be over soon."
"He deflected fire with his hand!" Sakura said in awe.
"The Sharingan and Ki combination," Madara observed with interest. "Fascinating evolution."
Kakane sweatdrops and pointed, "Um, Cuite, your hand is on fire."
The tension broke immediately.
Kyo felt his hand hot and realised it was true, and his hand was on fire! He runs around like an idiot while Kakane points to a nearby lake, but he doesn't see where Kakane is pointing, and finally, he extinguishes the fire by putting his hand on a nearby river.
The entire room burst into laughter.
"He can deflect it, but forgot about the aftermath!" Naruto laughed.
"Still learning," Jiraiya chuckled. "Power without complete wisdom."
"He's still just thirteen," Mito said fondly.
"Thirteen with Kage level or beyond," Madara said as others nodded slowly.
Kakane giggles at Kyo's action, and Kyo is embarrassed by it. Then he disappears at speed. Kakane gets serious, and then she hears.
"Now he's serious," Sasuke noted.
"God Fist!" A Ki punch hit Kakane right in the face.
"Direct hit on a Jonin!" Lee exclaimed.
"Gah!!" Scream in pain while sending her to a nearby tree.
"That's the technique he's been developing," Guy observed proudly.
Kyo just stood there waiting for Kakane to recover. Kakane, on the other hand, is shocked that she just realised Kyo has Blue Sharingan, but it is only in his right eye.
"She didn't know about his Sharingan?" Hiruzen said thoughtfully. "Interesting that he kept it hidden even from his Anbu guardian."
"Or she didn't get the information from another you," Tobirama said as Hashirama nodded.
"It posible." Hiruzen reply.
"I-I'm surprised, Cutie, that you got blue Sharingan, but why is it on your right eye?" Kakane asks as she gets up. She had no idea about Kyo's Blue Sharingan, even though she had watched him, and he never used it once during her watch.
"Smart to keep trump cards hidden," Shikamaru observed.
Kyo shrugs, "I don't know, but I awoke seven years ago after my clan was slain."
"It awakened from trauma, but Kyo received this from Ryo," Itachi said quietly, understanding.
"And he doesn't know it," Sasuke continued as the other nodded.
Kakane chuckled as she said, "Is that so? Well, Cutie, I got something to tell you. I also have..." She raises her left eye patch and reveals Sharingan.
"She has Sharingan too!" Fugaku said, leaning forward. "But whose?"
"A transplant like mine," Kakashi said, touching his covered eye.
Obito, who had been quiet most of the viewing, suddenly sat up straighter. "That's... that's my eye pattern."
Everyone turned to look at him.
"Your alternate self must have given it to her," Kakashi said to his friend. "Just like you did for me."
"So even in that world, I..." Obito trailed off, mixed emotions on his face. "Did I 'die' there, too?"
"We don't know yet," Minato said gently to his student.
Rin, sitting next to Obito, placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. "Your alternate self must have trusted her completely."
"Female Kakashi with my eye," Obito muttered. "This is weird even for alternate universes."

The screen faded to black.
"A cliffhanger!" Naruto protested.
"We need to see the Sharingan showdown!" Sasuke demanded.
"Blue Sharingan versus Obito's Sharingan," Madara mused. "The natural evolution versus the inherited will."
"Can we talk about Ryo's secret training?" Yuri said, turning to her husband with a sweet smile that promised pain.
"I just wanted them to be safe!" Ryo defended quickly. "Kage Bunshin is useful!"
"You taught our six-year-old a jonin-level technique without telling me?"
"Well... when you put it that way..."
"We'll discuss this later," Yuri said ominously.
"Poor Ryo," Minato whispered sympathetically.
"He's in trouble," Kushina giggled.
"But Naruko used it well," Hiruzen noted. "The training paid off."
"Still, secret training is dangerous," Tsunade said sternly.
"Can we get the next chapter, please?" Naruto asked desperately. "I need to know what happens!"
The Guardian's light pulsed. "Shall we continue?"
"YES!" everyone shouted.
