Naruto woke up slowly Saturday morning, feeling a sense of peace. He sat up slowly then stretched and yawned to wake himself up properly. Then a small smile started to form, he was going to challenge a genin . . . well spar a genin but it was still going to be awesome, even if he did get his ass kicked.
Tenten was level 18 which meant she was nearly a chuunin. This meant she was experienced, much more so that he was. Naruto had to restrain himself from using [Observe] on her. He wanted to wait until the fight.
Naruto was up late the night before training the skills he had. He even managed to convince Chouji and Shikamaru to spar with him, well past either of their curfews. And it was so worth it. Thanks to Shikamaru pushing him on strategy he'd leveled his tactics three times and hit LvMax with his taijutsu thanks to sparring Chouji.

Neither was very happy with him by the end of the night nor were their parents but they respected his decision to push and train as hard as he could to prepare for the fight that was to come. They had also gotten some good experience out of it, both gaining a few points in various stats.
Naruto suddenly grinned, and sprung to his feet. He rushed through his apartment to the bathroom to get his day going the right away. One shower later found Naruto in front of his hot plate. One of the nice things that had come from the previous night's training is Chouji telling him to eat a good breakfast, he even told him how to scramble and cook some eggs.
So here Naruto was, cooking, something that was very far outside of his wheelhouse. His meals usually consisted of Ichiraku Ramen or Cup Ramen and maybe some milk. Making real food was very different.

Real food for a real boy, life skill 'Cooking' Lvl. 1 has been created.
[Cooking (Active) Lv1 Exp 0.00 CP 5]

Additional 5% to [Cooking] speed when active.
Naruto frowned. He had a feeling that would happen after seeing Chouji's status buff to cooking the day before. He just wasn't really sure what it meant for him in the long run. Unless the food literally made him stronger. "Buff food?" wondered Naruto aloud. He'd played a game years ago where eating certain food would give his character in the game bonus stats for a short period of time.
Through careful application and work you have learned [Cooking] recipe [Scrambled Eggs].

Naruto blinked in surprise, that window he wasn't prepared for. "More shit to mess with, great."
Naruto sat and ate his eggs figuring he will be fighting Tenten in less than thirty minutes anyway. Naruto swallowed the last of his eggs then set out to meet Shikamaru and Chouji as they had planned.
Naruto met with his friends just outside the gates of the Nara Clan compound and after brief greeting the trio made their way to Training Field Four.
The loud rhythmic thumping that met them as they approached was slightly disconcerting. The fact it got louder as they got closer was even more so. The green thing with giant teeth, caterpillar eye-brows causing the thumping noise from striking a training post was downright terrifying.
"Um, hello," called Naruto nervously. Who knew if the green thing would suddenly turn and start pounding on him in such a way?
Rock Lee Lv 20
"Yosh!" he screamed suddenly, turning to face the new comers.
Naturally all three took a few steps backwards from the thing.
"Welcome my most, youthful friends. Have you come to stoke your fires of youth in the flames of hard work?" he asked completely serious.
Shikamaru and Chouji briefly looked at each other before shoving Naruto forward.
