Naruto is Reincarnated Chapter 8: Doubts of being a ninja?

After Kakashi and Sakura left,

Sasuke approached Naruto and said.

"I want to fight you!" With resolve burning in his eyes.

"I have to go and train…." Naruto brushed the question off,

Sasuke's face twisted with anger, he came even closer to Naruto and said in a bold voice

"Without your weights" insistent on making Naruto agree.

"Are you sure, you can handle that?...Don't let yourself carried away, just because we won the survival training earlier….." Naruto said as he pulled his sleeves up to remove the weights around his arms.

"This is different from that…" Sasuke said as he waited patiently for Naruto to remove all the weights.

"How much, do they weigh when added up?" He asked curiously.

"10 per arm and 25 per leg, grand total 70kgs….." Naruto calmly answered, as he finished removing.

"N(o)…." Naruto instantly appeared behind Sasuke, as though he had teleported.

"Are you going to refuse to battle me now….." Naruto looked at Sasuke in the eyes.

"I will give you three moves advantage, Sasuke….." Naruto closed his eyes as he concentrated.

"What are you doing?"

Naruto remained silent as an orange colour shade appeared over his eyelids, and disappeared the next moment as if it did not exist in the first place.

"What was that?" Sasuke asked.

"Just made sure that no one was watching us….."

"How?"

"By sensing"

Getting irritated , Sasuke starts attacking Naruto.

He threw a punch at full force that landed squarely on Naruto's chest.

"One" Naruto stuck out a finger, indicating that he was counting.

Feeling more humiliated He gave a kick and also followed it with a reverse roundhouse kick.

"All three moves have been executed... Now it's my turn."

Sasuke activated his sharingan by the time Naruto finished talking. But before he could taunt with a hand gesture,

(SMASH!)

Sasuke was imprinted into the ground with nowhere to move.

Sasuke had no idea, on what just happened. He was able to see Naruto coming in to punch him, but he could not do anything about it.

"How did you do it?" Sasuke asked not willing to accept his defeat.

"Through training of course!" Sasuke got angry indicating that he meant something else.

"Oh, you see Sasuke, even if your eyes are fast, it doesn't mean your body can respond to accordingly, you see, your body must possess the ability to react to the speed of what you see, only then you can dodge…. That is why from now on, we are going to spar everyday so that you can improve your speed"

Sasuke got up, no longer possessing the anger he had previously.

"You know Sasuke, if you want you can instantly increase your speed to almost 3 times the current speed you possess just by using chakra…" Naruto suggested trying to cheer up Sasuke.

"Go on…. I am listening…." Sasuke replied.

"This training comes under the basics of Chakra control."

"Now watch me" Naruto said as he walked to a nearby tree.

"First Step - Knead your chakra"

"Second Step - Concentrate your chakra to the base of your feet"

"Third Step - Maintain the level of chakra, without releasing it out"

(tck!) Naruto's leg stuck to the tree, and he started climbing, all the way to the top.

"Your turn" Naruto said as he dropped to the ground and went to wear all his weight again.

Sasuke walked to the tree and tried imitating what Naruto did.

"It would be better to do a running start, and be careful as you might land on your head if you fail, best thing to do is use your kunai to make a mark at the place you fail and try to make more marks above it to keep track of your improvements" Naruto advised and started to warm-up with some light exercises.

("Okay!") Sasuke thought as he ran up to the tree

(Bang) Sasuke fell down right on his head after two steps.

"Hahahahah!" Naruto literally rolled over the floor as he laughed.

"Argh!" Sasuke stood up, not wanting to give up.

The duo trained till the end of the day, at which point Sasuke could only climb half-way.

The next day….

Deep in the forest

"Naruto at point A"

"Sasuke at point B"

"Sakura at point C"

The trio reported into the radio, on their neck

"5 metres ahead, I am going" Naruto reported as he pounced skilfully onto the cat and captured it

"No mistake, Red ribbon on the right ear, Missing Cat Tora,

Target has been successfully retrieved …" Sasuke reported into the radio.

Later in the mission office.....

Naruto and the team arrive, as a plump woman with the hairdo of a geisha runs over to get her cat

"Oh my cute Tora, I was so worried to death" the woman was naturally Lady Shijimi, wife of the Fire country's Daimyo.

Seeing the lady hug her cat to death, Naruto commented "If I were this cat, I would probably do the same…" as he pitied the cat's life.

Sasuke and Sakura silently agreed.

On the table, the Hokage took a D-Rank scroll as he read, "this duty is about babysitting a boy..."

"Hey old man, how about we get a real mission here" Naruto said as he received a smack from Kakashi.

"Hmm…"The hokage thought, while Iruka took the opportunity to reprimand Naruto "You've just started out as a Genin, your good scores are not an excuse Naruto…"

"Hatake Kakashi" the Third Hokage called Kakashi's attention.

"Yes"

"Your team, squad 7 has received a lot of praises from our client about how well the mission was performed, your team has the highest ratings as of now, hence I don't see a reason to turn Naruto's request down. So if you need a mission, there is one to escort someone..."

(knock)

"Come in" the Hokage said, upon which an old man in a hat and a bottle showed up.

"Whaaattt, aren't they just a bunch of squirts" the old man asked as his gaze came to rest upon Naruto.

("Ah!, Its old man Tazuna, how Nostalgic.") Naruto turned towards him with a bright smile.

"Particularly, you the smallest one with the idiotic face, Do you expect me to believe that you are a ninja?….." the old man continued as he took a sip from his glass bottle.

("The smallest one with the idiotic face?") Naruto found that sentence very familiar for some reason.

"Damn you old man" Naruto shouted back as Kakashi instantly held him back from injuring the old man

("I saved your town and don't see you for decades and you have the nerve to call me an idiot?") Naruto screamed in his head, starting to hate some elements of time travel.

"I'm Tazuna, a veteran bridge builder. For the next few months, I'm going to have you protect me as I return to my homeland and build a bridge!" The old man introduced as he headed out.

Naturally the trio followed the old man as they left the village.

Tazuna kept looking at Naruto and said "I still don't feel safe with this kid".

"You've got a problem with the future hokage, old man?" Naruto asked getting a bit irritated.

"Hokage, aren't they the strongest ninja in the village? You sure don't look like you are gonna be one" Tazuna said cooly.

"Hehe, old man, the day I become one I will make you acknowledge me…." Naruto commented

"The day you become one is the day the pigs fly…" Tazuna said as he took another sip.

"Damn you old man, you're asking for it" Naruto raised his fist as he said, while Tazuna did not pay any attention to the comment.

"Sensei! We are going to the Land of Waves right? Are there any ninjas in that country?" Sakura asked curiously.

"Nope, only hidden villages have ninjas, and they are lorded over by the kages, the strongest ninja in their respective village….."

"Sakura….. Did you just doubt the third Hokage?"Kakashi asked.

Sakura felt guilt as she nodded sideways continuously.

A while later, the group came across a puddle,

They kept walking by as they paid no heed, while two ninjas in dark clothing, popped their heads from within the puddle

They waited for a while as the group walked, then descended onto the ground and took off quietly in the group's direction.

Naruto quickly noticed the shady movements and smirked as he turned around and blasted off instantly appearing behind the shady duo.

(bang)

He knocked out both the ninjas and carried one in each arm as he approached the group.

Kakashi was not too surprised, as he had already seen Naruto's skill and had expectations for it, whereas on the other hand Sasuke and Sakura had the mouths drop down with Tazuna's own wide enough to fit an entire egg into it.

Naruto dropped down the two ninjas as he walked towards Tazuna.

"You said something about having doubts of me being a ninja?"
