[Ding! Quest Completed

Quest: Fate Can be Changed

Beat Neji as the top shinobi of the year

Reward: Hinata will be more inclined to believe you, Hinata relationship +10 points]

I was wondering why that quest wasn't completed even after I got the headband. I guess that since it started with Hinata, I need to tell her for it to be completed.

Now that it is, her relationship points finally passed 50. I can't wait for it to reach 70, I'm sure she won't turn me down if I ask her out then… but first, I should get Tenten to 90 and I know just the thing that'll help me do so. I just have to prepare it first.

I arrive at Training Ground 3 earlier than the appointed time. Not seeing anyone and noticing that I still have time, I find a spot to sit down and meditate. If his test goes the way I think it'll go, then I'm going to need to be in top condition.

A few minutes later, I feel Lee arrived with my chakra sense. He sees me meditating so he didn't bother me and starts his 'warm-ups' nearby. Tenten arrived last and chooses to sit next to me. As for Guy, he was already here before me. I sense him hiding in the forest nearby but I decided that it would be best to wait for him to come out by himself. That way, I could train my meditation skills. It levels up way too slow for my liking.

"Sooo… what do you think the test is going to be Hiro-kun?" Tenten asked after she got bored of waiting. I opened my eyes as I notice Guy came out of hiding and is making his way over.

"I don't know, why don't we ask Guy-sensei." I easily lie and look toward Guy's direction. Lying is a necessary skill for a ninja and I got quite good at it because of Naruto. Despite being young, he's surprisingly perspective, he was able to see through most of my lies. I said 'was' because he have a harder time detecting my lies now. For some reason though, I didn't get a lying skill like most Gamer d…

Deception - The ability to lie and deceive others.]

I close the screen and stretch so it doesn't look like I'm waving my hand around randomly. I'll deal with that notification later.

"It's good to see that you all made it on time," Guy said as he stopped walking forward.

"I don't like to waste time so we'll just get straight to the point. The test is simple, all you have to do is move me from this spot." Guy draws a small circle on the ground with one foot, only big enough to put his feet in.

"You have until sunset to do so. If you fail, you'll have to go back to the academy. Now, come at me!" Guy said not even bothering to get into his taijutsu stance.

"Yosh! Then I'm going first." Lee runs at Guy

"Wait! Lee!" I call out but he didn't listen

A few seconds later, Lee got kicked in my direction. I hold out a hand and stop him from flying back further.

"He's a Jounin and from what I can figure out, he's a Taijutsu specialist. We can't just expect to rush him and expect to win." I explain

"Then what should we do?" Tenten asks

"Anyone know any range Jutsu?"

Both Lee and Tenten shake their heads. I have Liquid Bullet but I don't want people asking questions on how I, an orphan, manages to get a Jutsu.

"Since we can't beat him by ourselves, we'll do it this way then. Lee and I are better at Taijutsu so he and I will team up on Guy-sensei while you," I point at Tenten "are better with weapons so you support us with throwing weapons. Any questions?"

"Umm… is it ok to team up against one person?" Lee asks

"Guy-sensei never said it was. If he doesn't want us to team, he would have told us. Any more questions?"

"Yea… I didn't bring my kunai pouch. I didn't think we'll need them." Tenten said meekly

I stare at her… what kind of ninja don't bring their tools to a ninja exam?

"Here," I untie my pouch and give it to her. "Use this for now."

She accepts it embarrassed.

"Anything else?"

Both of them shake their heads.

"Good. On three we start our assault. Remember, we are not trying to defeat him, we are just trying to make him move." I look at them to see if they are ready. They both look focused and ready to go.

"One," I summon my Chakra Construct around me. "Two," The construct slowly starts to change to armor starting from my feet to my head. I may be able to instantly create a basic construct like a ball or cube but creating complex things like armor takes a little time.

"Three!" my chakra armor fully complete itself and I rush at Guy.

[Ding! Skil…]

I ignore the pop-ups and focus on the fight instead. The pop-ups disappear as I near Guy and the fight started.

Lee looked a little surprised at my armor but he still ran beside me to attack Guy. I move slightly toward Guy's left side, Lee notices and mirror me toward Guy's right.

I reach Guy first so I send a jump kick at the left side of his head. Guy is able to easily block it with just his left hand but before he can counterattack, Lee tries to swipe Guy's leg to make him fall. Guy uses his left arm to push my feet away while he jumps to avoid Lee's hit. Before Guy can land, two shurikens make their way toward Guy's head from the right forcing him to tilt his head.

Before Guy can recover, I already did so I send a double palm strike at his midsection to knock him off balance and maybe knock him back. It didn't work as he grabbed both my hands with just one hand and throw me toward Tenten. As I stop myself by extending my chakra constructed feet and digging them to the ground, I see Lee sending an uppercut at Guy. Guy didn't even look fazed as he kicks Lee in my direction again just in time dodge a kunai that is heading for his shoulder.

I stopped in awe of his skills. I mean 'he did all that WHILE IN THE AIR!! Sigh, I still have a long way to go' -OOF

Lee flew into me and knock us both to the ground.
