-----Arena-----
After some minutes of break in the center of the arena stood Naruto and his opponent. 'As I thought he will win.' Naruto thought with insane grin. 'What will you do?... Gaara?' Naruto asked himself in his mind still with insane grin on his face. Gaara looked at him with pity. Then Yamato looked at them and they nodded at him signalised that they are ready then he shouted "Match between Naruto no Yōko versus Gaara of the Sand may begin!" After that he jumped back as far as he can.
They stared at each other. Then Gaara spoke sad "Naruto, what happened to you?"
Naruto narrowed his eyebrow and said with a bit of anger "I most likely found my true self."
Gaara sees anger in his voice and asked not carrying at all "What I mean is why you became like me? When I was bloody killer." After that everyone in arena was scared that he asked him about that. Everyone turned their heads at Naruto who was standing there and his eyes was covered by his hair. Also something changed in his look that no one could see. His hairs was now silver with black tips and his eyes flashed with purple color. Even Naruto did notice that his eyes changed for a second. Then he looked down and saw his hair. 'They changed, it is because of my emotions? I only see darkness so that means my hair in future turn black. Sorry dad but that means I can't keep my promise about not dyeing my hairs on black.' He thought and chuckled but stopped instantly. He then looked at Gaara with Kitsune Eyes but they also changed they are more bloody then before. Gaara saw those eyes and takes step back.
"" Naruto said with demonic and low voice making everyone shiver.
Gaara gulped and said "Is this because of this prison you was sent?"
"" Naruto said shrugged.
"Naruto I can save you as you saved me..." Gaara said and reached out his hand towards Naruto. "Just come with me. We can be friends, again." Gaara finished with smile.
"" Naruto said and in blink of an eye was back to back with Gaara. Gaara was shocked and scared at first but didn't want to show it to him. "" Naruto said.
"I'm still your friend." Gaara said as calm as he could.
Naruto shook his head and asked ""
Gaara's eyes widened. "I..."
"" Naruto said with anger.
Gaara stood still not telling anything. Naruto just sighed and said "r with this." Then he went to his spot and take his 'Raging Fox' stance. Gaara stood there lost in his thoughts 'Why this need to end like this, Naruto?' He thought not paying attention to Naruto. Naruto saw this and he appeared in blink of an eye in front of Gaara holding him by his neck thigh. Naruto started to choke Gaara. "Just give up. I don't want to kill you." Naruto said said before thoughts 'Now...'.
"I... can't... give... up..." Gaara said between breaths.
Naruto then realized something 'Suna Bunshin.' Naruto thought. Then Naruto lifted him above his head and throw him in the air and stabbed Gaara's bunshin in the gut with his both hands and then ripped him in half. Everyone's eyes widened in horror at that. "Come on Gaara. I know that was a bunshin." Naruto said and grinned. Then he turned his head to where stood Gaara.

"You really kill me don't you Naruto?" Gaara asked with sad in his eyes and voice.
"If you don't give me other choice..." Naruto said and shrugged and closed his eyes for a second. 'That's my chance!' Gaara thought and made sand spear behind Naruto and shoot it at his back. Naruto sensed it but he just stood there with closed eyes. 'Let's play with them a little.' Naruto thought and grinned like a maniac in his mind. Then everyone's eyes widened as sand spear was right through Naruto's right lung and 'shocked' face Naruto put for this moment. Everyone from Konoha was shocked. Then they turned to Naruko and Sasuke who was his friends but they just looked at Gaara and Naruto. Then everyone turned their look at Gaara who was approaching Naruto.
"I'm sorry, Naruto. I didn't really want to end this like that." Gaara said with sad voice. Naruto didn't response. His eyes was covered by his hair. "If you only listen to me and took my hand few moments ago then this won't and like that. You was and will by my first friend but when my village is in danger I will protect it at all costs." Gaara said now with serious tone.
'So you are basically like everyone. You will betray everyone who is a treat? You are no different than Minato. Father I changed my dream. I will not only destroy Konoha but every single village!' Naruto thought with sinister grin in his mind. "Yamato this match ended he will die if this keeps up." Gaara said and Yamato started to call a winner in this match but the whole arena could feel tremendous amount of Killer Intent. Everyone was beyond scared except Naruko and Sasuke due to them being demon and half-demon foxes. Then someone started to chuckle and this chuckle ended in full maniacal laugh. Everyone saw Naruto who was laughing like he was insane.
"" Naruto said before stopping laughing but his eyes still was covered by his hair and his eyes again flashed in purple color. Gaara looked at him scared and started to taking steps back from Naruto. Naruto then looked at him with his Kitsune Eyes with full Bloodlust in them. "" Naruto said and started to pulling out sand spear from his lung not carrying, that he was bleeding from his wound. But after some seconds his wound was healed not leaving even a scar. Then his grin soon disappeared and he was dead serious. "" Naruto said and turned his look at Yamato who was scared but nodded. "W-W-Win-Winner i-i-in this match i-is N-N-Naruto no Yōko he is promoted to f-finals!" Then Naruto looked at Gaara . He disappeared and appeared in front of him. "" Naruto said that only Gaara can hear him and looked at him "" then he disappeared in a silver and black flash now is sitting besides Naruko and Sasuke. Gaara shunshined via sand to his Kage spot not saying a single thing when other Kages asked questions about what Naruto said to him when the match was finished.
-----Sasuke, Naruto and Naruko-----
Our trio said there in silence and finally Naruko decided to break that. "Naruto?" she said.
"Hmm?" Naruto looked at her.
"You alright?" she asked worried.
"Yeah. I'm just pissed at everyone, except you two." Naruto said in anger.
"What happened to your hair?" Sasuke asked looking down at Naruto's tips that was now black. "I wanted to ask the same thing." Naruko added.

"I don't really know. I think it's because of my emotions." Naruto said rubbing his chin.
"What do you mean?" Naruko asked confused.
"What I mean is that, that if I will be under bad emotions like hate and anger my hair will turn full black. It's only matter of time." Naruto said and chuckled at that.
"What's so funny about that?" Sasuke asked confused.
"Promise I made to my father." Naruto said a bit sad but also happy. Naruko looked at him with pity.
"You mean Kyūbi?" Sasuke asked and Naruto nodded "What is this promise about?" He asked again.
"I thought you saw my memories." Naruto looked at him.
"Yes I did. But there is many of them." He said and Naruko nodded.
"You know Uchiha Madara?" Naruto asked him and he nodded. "Kurama didn't liked him. And when my hair grow long we made a promise that I will never dye my hair in black color." he smiled.
"Ohh..." Sasuke was only respond.
Naruto turned his looked at Sasuke started too speak "Sasuke. I need you to do something." He said with serious face.
"What is it?" Sasuke asked.
"I want you to put us three in sleep with Genjutsu when I and Naruko will fight in finals." Naruto said making them look at him in shock.
"Why?" Sasuke asked and Naruko nodded worry.
"I know kages will plan something with three of us after exams. I want to make it easy for them and let us capture." Naruto said. Sasuke and Naruko was a bit angry but let it off.
"I assume you have a plan?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes. It will be something big. But remember how much time we have before Akatsuki will appear and ask us to join them." Naruto said grinning like a mad man.
"I see. We will wait for them?" Naruko asked and Naruto nodded. "I still think it's a bad idea." she added and Sasuke nodded.
"I know. But after our fight we can be injured and I know that we have large healing capabilities. But if they put seals on us we can simply ended up bleeding to death." Naruto said and they nodded. "Let's end this conversation." He said and turned his head to Naruko. "Your match will start soon." he added and she nodded and disappeared via dark water and appeared on the arena floor where stood Neji and Yamato waiting for her.
-----Arena Floor-----
Yamato saw as Naruko appeared in a shunshin made from dark water. Neji noticed it and nodded at Yamato who saw this and Naruko soon after him also nodded. Yamato nodded at them and rise his hand in the air "Match between Naruko Namikaze-Uzumaki and Neji Hyūga may begin!" He shouted and lowered his hand and jumped back. Soon they started to fight in taijutsu. Neji activated his Byakugan on the beginning. But he has hard time with her punches and speed. She went to punch him in the head from behind but he nearly dodge it in time thanks to his Byakugan. She then again disappeared and lunched attack at his chest which he blocked but was pushed by force from that hit. 'I can't keep up with her. My Byakugan help me a lot but it's still not much for her speed.' Then she did one hand signs in running state and her body started to glow.
'I need to lower my gravity seals. Let's put down 2 times.' she thought and she started to run faster then before. And assault begin. She landed hit on his arms, legs and chest in a matter of second. He was lunched in arena wall with a great force making small crater. Everyone was jaw open to the ground and wide eyes. No one can keep up except Minato, Raikage and Kakashi who lifted his headband from his Sharingan. 'She is fast.' Everyone thoughts except Naruto and Sasuke.
'She will kill me if this keep up.' Neji thought laying on the floor. When smoke dropped down everyone can see him barely conscious. He lifted his hand up and said "I... give up." and with that he blacked out. "Winner by surrender Naruko Namikaze-Uzumaki! She is also promoted to the finals and her opponent will be Naruto no Yōko! Let's take a break and in meantime we will repair arena!" Yamato shouted and Naruto shunshined in a golden wind and appeared besides Naruto.
-----With Our Trio-----
Naruko sat there and smiled at Naruto and Sasuke.
"Did you really had to lower your gravity seals two times?" Naruto asked.
"Now to think about it I should lower only oone time but I wanted to make sure he didn't keep up." she said and he nodded.
"so what now?" Sasuke asked.
"We will according to our plan. I want you to put you Genjutsu on us after I don't know six minutes?" Naruto said and Sasuke nodded.
"Naruto?" Naruko said.
"Yea?" he responded.
"I want you to go full out on your Kitsune eyes." Naruko said.
"You sure?" Naruto asked worried looking at her and she nodded. "Okay. Then I want you to use also your eyes." Naruto said shocked her.
"But I can't control them yet. And what if they will see my eyes?" she said worried.
"I will put Genjutsu on your eyes. And yes I want you to use them. I want you to hit me as hard as you can." Naruto said and he nodded.
"You think this is a good idea?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes and no." Naruto said and looked down at arena.
"What do you mean?" Naruko asked worried.
"First this can be your training like experience, second if I will go all out this will be nasty. And I don't want to see you in pain. Third I think I found out ability of your eyes." He said.
"Really?" Naruko asked looking at him in awe.
"Yes. When you start to use your eyes your healing capabilities are increased." He said. "And that ability will be good because you can be injured." He said with sad voice.
"How much?" she asked.
"Bad. Even very bad." he said still sad.
"Okay. I will do this." she said with determination and Naruto smiled at her.
Then their conversation was cut because of Yamato shouting. "May Naruto no Yōko and Naruko Namikaze-Uzumaki come down for final fight in this exams?!" Naruto sighed and stood up.
"Let's go." He said and shunshined via black, silver wind and she shunshined in golden wind.

8 117Musings of a Hypocrite
Mortals are weird. They insisted in unity, as well as individualism. More often than not, they're shocked at truth and honesty, but not at falsehood and deceit. They asked questions with multiple answers, and provided answers that begged other questions. They made things to break, they destroyed things to study, they researched things to recreate. Humans, Elves, Beastmen. All of them. Within these contradictions, a miracle might manifest. But this tended to work with a trial and error methodology. Most mortals never got the happy ending. This diary is my journey alongside a few students of mine. In simple terms - they learn, they grow, they fight. They'll journey through centuries of conflict, from the physical to the educational. They'll experience the cruelty and benelovence of all living-kind. They'll experience the consequences of their choices and the blessings of their rewards. They will grow to become useful to me, or die trying like all the others. As for you? The god reading our lives like a book, sitting in your chair without a care in the world? I will show you, the farce that is known as 'God'.
