Naruto:The Yajuu Sannin

The boy landed and threw a quick kick, which was just as easily blocked. The boy began a flurry of kicks and punches all of which were effortlessly stopped by the older man.

'He's fast,' Kakashi noted to himself, 'but extremely sloppy.' He had heard negative things from the academy, but this was ridiculous. It was like the boy was incorporating different moves from a multitude of styles that meshed together in an unholy mess.

He delivered a powerful kick to the blonde boy's gut, which sent him skidding back several feet. The boy rose to his feet and angrily formed his hands together in the tiger seal and ten shadow clones puffed into existence beside him. Many dipped into their pouches drawing kunai and charged as one.

Kakashi barely moved an inch as he dismantled every clone that attempted to get near him. As he blocked one kick, he noted the original standing in the back watching the events unfold. So the loud brat actually knew how to use his head. He brought his thoughts to a close as he dismembered the last of the clones.

He closed his book and the two seemed to just stare at each other. After a minute, the blonde brought his hands in another seal, summoning more clones.

Kakashi was a little disappointed. He had been told that the blonde was quite imaginative. "You can't just beat me with clones. At this rate, you'll never get a bell."

The blonde chose to ignore the man's taunt and reached into his bag. Quickly, he threw down a smoke grenade, engulfing the area in purple smoke. Kakashi stayed put as he heard the clones beginning to surround him. He was about to reach for some shuriken to dispel them, when a pair of hands shot out of the ground and clasped onto his feet.

Immediately, the clones charged as one. Using his superior strength, Kakashi wrenched himself free of the hand underground and jumped into the air, hearing the satisfying pops of the clones after he let loose his barrage of shuriken.

As he soared out of the cloud of gas, he saw the origninal Naruto going through several handseals. Even without his sharingan, he recognized that jutsu and actually began to worry. What was Kitsune doing teaching that jutsu to an academy student?

Naruto brought a hand to his lips as he exclaimed, "Katon: Fox Hellfire!" A stream of spiking, yellow fire streaked from mouth. It surged forward and engulfed Kakashi's body, setting him ablaze instantly. Cutting off the jutsu, Naruto found a burning log in the place of his sensei.

"Kuso!"

Kakashi watched the boy from the treeline as he desperately tried to find his teacher. At least Kitsune had been smart enough to make sure the blonde mastered the jutsu in parts. It may function as a simple katon jutsu in its base form, but its second or third level were no laughing matter.

As the boy let out another curse, Kakashi smiled under his mask. 'So the prankster has a temper problem?' This thought brought a smirk to his face as an idea popped into his head. He quickly set up a double-layered snare trap using a bell as the bait.

The sunlight reflected off the bell caused the boy to stop. He immediately lit up and ran towards the bell only to stop a foot away. Kakashi frowned as the boy hesitated. Then he placed his foot a few inches away from its previous path and scooped up the bell.

"Nice try sensei, but you have to wake up real early to trick the number one prankster in Konoha!"

Kakashi dropped from the tree and studied the blonde. Once again, the boy was proving that as brash as he usually was, he could think outside the box and think clearly when he needed to. But he couldn't just let the blonde pass due to his own error.

"Very good Naruto, I'll certainly remember that next time."

"Alright, well I just keep this then." The blonde closed his eyes as he smiled. This instant was all the jounin needed.

"Keep what?" Kakashi asked curiously.

"The bell of cour-" the blonde was shocked to find nothing in his hand. He began frantically checking the ground.

"Oh, do you mean this bell," Kakashi asked as he held up the lost item.

"What…How… When did you…GIVE THAT BACK!"

"I think I'll pass. You have to take the bell from me, not pick it up off the ground."

Anger etched itself across his face, as he yelled, "Fine then!" Time to pull out all the stops.

He clasped his hands together and more clones burst into existence. Kakashi sighed, but the boy formed another hand sign and something was immediately wrong. The ground beneath his feet collapsed into a crater and he was finding it incredibly difficult to move his body.

'A gravity seal! When did he… Of course, when the clone burst out of ground to hold me in place. He already had a plan ready in case that one failed.'

The group of blonds jumped on top of him and pinned him down as the original whipped out a handful of kunai and flung them at the heap of bodies. Kakashi wasn't a jounin for nothing. Even under the influence of the gravity seal, he was still able to use his incredible strength to wrench one of the blondes off him and fling him into the path of most of the kunai coming towards him. He twisted his way out of the paths of the remaining kunai, ensuring that the clones attached to him would fall in their line of fire.
