The next day, Akihiko woke up and saw that it was 7.30 a.m in the morning. He teleported to the usual training spot that he used to train Sasuke and Naruto.

When he arrived there, Akihiko saw Sasuke and Naruto who looked like they were still both sleepy. ​​

The training spot was an open space in the middle with trees surrounding it. There was also a river near the training spot.

"Hey, are you both ready for the graduation test?" Akihiko asked as he waved at them.

Naruto replied drowsily, "It will be as easy as eating ramen."

Sasuke replied while rubbing his eyes, "Yeah."

"Alright. I won't wish you luck since you won't be needing it for the test." Akihiko said as he smiled, looking at Naruto and Sasuke.

"Oh right, do you guys still want to train with me?" Akihiko asked since he wanted to know about this.

"Of course!" Naruto replied quickly as Sasuke also nodded.

"Ok, then to get you out of your sleepy state, I should do this." Akihiko said as he grabbed both Naruto and Sasuke from the clothes and yeeted them towards the river.

"Aaaaaaaah!"x2

Both of them yelled as they fell into the water.

*Splash!*

"What the hell was that?!" Naruto now fully awake yelled at he had a fish on top of his head.

"Puhhh!" Sasuke spat out the water in his mouth and made a sound like a certain dentist on YOULUBE!

After that, both of them swam towards the shore and Akihiko just used a wind jutsu to dry them.

"Since you both are fully awake, now let's start our spar. Attack me with all you got. You can use weapons too. I will give you guys a handicap. I won't use my hands." Akihiko said as he just stood there with his hands behind his head.

"Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu." Naruto yelled as over 300 shadow clones appeared all around Akihiko.

Sasuke also used Transformation Jutsu to change himself to look like Naruto. He blended himself in between the clones and was waiting for a chance to attack.

Naruto ordered all of his clones to attack Akihiko and they all dashed towards Akihiko. They threw punches, kicks and slashes with kunais and all that they could do but Akihiko was just yawning and defeating all of them with just using his legs.

Naruto and Sasuke both waited for a moment and as they saw Akihiko turn towards one side, they both dashed towards him. Sasuke undid the transformation and activated his sharingan to perceive Akihiko's moves better.

Naruto threw shurikens at Akihiko just to see that Akihiko deflected all of them off with just a round kick.

Sasuke held his katana firmly as he dashed forward and took a slash as Akihiko was busy kicking the shurikens. Just as he thought he would be able to get a hit, Akihiko dodged down and swept Sasuke's leg making Sasuke fall down on the ground.

*Ooof*

Naruto seeing that just spammed Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu trying to land a hit on Akihiko.

Sasuke also quickly got up and attacked Akihiko once again.

*Swoosh*

*Poof* *Poof* *Poof*

Sounds of kicks, grunts, clones dispersing filled the forest for the next 40 minutes.

"*Huff* *Huff* *Huff* W-we still couldn't land a hit even though Akihiko just used his legs." Naruto said as he was currently seen sitting on the ground, with his back against the tree, trying to catch his breath.

Sasuke was also sitting beside Naruto just that he looked like he just rolled around in mud. His clothes were dirty, his hair was covered with dust and he had bruises on his body.

"Are we weak or is Akihiko just too strong?" Sasuke asked as they both thought about that.

Akihiko who heard that replied to both of them, "Nah, I'm just too strong. Both of you improved a lot. I'm sure that you can fight against chunins already. "

"Hehehehehe." Naruto who heard that just laughed while rubbing the back of his head.

Sasuke also had a faint smile on the corner of his face as his strength improved once again.

After that, Akihiko gave both Sasuke and Naruto a body development pill. They both gave Akihiko a suspicious look but they ate it.

After that, Akihiko teleported both Naruto and Sasuke both to their homes. He could imagine Mikoto and Kushina becoming angry at Naruto and Sasuke for messing up their clothes.

Afterwards, he ate breakfast at his home that Pakura prepared. Pakura was starting to become more like a maid than an employee.

After eating breakfast, Pakura prepared to open the shop. She already got used to this lifestyle.

'I don't have to fight nor kill anyone. It is peaceful here. I can just interact with people and sell cookies. If possible, I just want to settle down here, marry someone and have some kids. But it won't be possible.' Pakura thought as she wiped clean the trays that will hold cookies.

"Pakura, I'll leave the shop to you. Bye~" Akihiko said as he waved.

"Yeah, yeah." Pakura said in an annoyed tone.

Akihiko just chuckled and disappeared from his home.

Pakura just sighed and muttered to herself with an annoyed tone, "Another day, just sitting here alone. Without anyone. That bastard Akihiko, leaving me alone here everyday."

-----

Today, Akihiko had a joint mission together with Izumi. The mission would just take around 4 hours to complete. The mission was to escort a rich businessman together with his goods to a village near Konoha. He had many competitors and as he wanted to be sure of his safety, he issued a mission.

Originally, Akihiko was given this mission by Hiruzen and was told that he could add a ninja of chunin rank to join him on this mission. Akihiko chose Izumi to join him as Izumi also needed some good merit in order to be promoted as a chunin. Before, her endurance wasn't too good and she couldn't use her sharingan for a long time as she would faint from exhaustion. Now, her endurance was increased a lot from training and mostly from night exercises with Akihiko.

Currently, they were both at the entrance of Konoha and behind them, a short, fat business man with a Mario mustache could be seen. The man was very energetic and was jumping from time to time. There were also 3 other employees of the business that Marriyo owned.

After talking with the guards, Akihiko turned back towards the merchant and said, "We can go now, Marriyo-san."

After that, Marriyo and his employees then got up and they had their goods carried in a backpack. Akihiko didn't bother to ask what the goods was since it was not his business and he didn't care about it.

[Meanwhile]

Currently, it was 9.am so the academy already opened. It was the last day of academy for many students. Some will become ninjas, some won't. Today was the day that will determine everything.

In Class A, 9 kids could be seen waiting in their room chatting as Iruka entered the room.

"Listen up everyone, today will be the last day of academy and all of you already know this but I will say it again. There will be a written test and a practical test today. For the practical test, you will have to successfully use a Clone Jutsu and Transformation Jutsu."

Everyone nodded as they already knew all of this.

After that, Iruka handed test papers to everyone and told them to finish within an hour. After an hour, everyone passed. Naruto also passed easily since he learned these together with Sasuke.

After finishing the test, they had to perform the Clone Jutsu and Transformation Jutsu.

First, it was Sakura's turn. She did it correctly just like in the anime but there was a difference. She didn't start fanboying Sasuke as soon as she finished. She just returned back in line and stood there quietly.

After that, it was Sasuke. He did all of it perfectly, For the transformation Jutsu, he transformed himself into Akihiko.

Then, turn after turn everyone finished leaving only Naruto, Ino and Hinata. Hinata got called out and guess what, she passed. She thought, 'After this I will go and find Akihiko-kun. I need to see him at least once a day.'

Then, Ino got called out and after she passed, she had a smug smile thinking 'I will finally become a genin. Akihiko-kun promised me that he will answer me when I become a genin.'

Finally, when Naruto got called out, everyone looked at him. Inside the class, he didn't listen to all of the lessons and just dozed off. They thought that he didn't listen to anything Iruka said and wouldn't be able to do those. Well, half of it was true. Only Sasuke didn't care about what Naruto did as he already knew that Naruto would pass the exam easily.

Just as Sasuke predicted, Naruto passed the test easily. After that, Iruka continued to say,

"Although you passed the test from the academy, if your genin instructor don't want you on their team, you will be sent back to the academy. Today afternoon at 1.pm, you will have to take a graduation photo so don't be late. Also, here's your headband."

They became excited as they would get their ninja headband except for Shikamaru who just wanted to become a cloud.

They all took their ninja headband, wore it and went back to their respective homes to brag about this to their parents.
