Naruto : I Aspire To Become Hokage Man

---

Chōji watched Akamaru wagging his tail excitedly, tears welling up in his eyes as he unconsciously stepped forward.

Before he could reach Akamaru, Shino stepped in front of him.

"What?" Chōji asked impatiently.

Shino pointed at a tiny insect on the ground. "Don't step on it."

"Wait… Are you planning to eat it?" Chōji asked in horror.

The atmosphere among the Rookie Nine suddenly became tense—an odd mix of annoyance and familiarity.

"Oi! You guys should keep it down!"

A calm yet firm voice came from behind them.

"You're the nine rookies who just graduated, huh? Man… you guys are so noisy. This isn't a playground."

The group turned to see a silver-haired young man wearing glasses walking toward them.

"And who the hell are you to tell us what to do?" Ino shot back, crossing her arms.

The silver-haired man adjusted his glasses. "The name's Yakushi Kabuto. Rather than picking fights, you guys should be paying more attention to your surroundings."

Everyone glanced around and immediately noticed dozens of eyes locked onto them—cold, unwelcoming, and filled with murderous intent.

A heavy silence fell over the group as they realized the tension in the air.

Except for Naruto and Team 7. They were already used to being hated by everyone.

"See those guys from the Hidden Rain Village? They're already on edge. When you're this loud before an exam, you're bound to piss people off," Kabuto explained. "Not to mention, there are a lot of strong contenders here. You guys are way too relaxed."

Naruto suddenly lowered his head and started trembling slightly.

Sakura glanced at him, surprised. "Is Naruto actually nervous? It's rare to see him like this in such a tense situation…"

Kabuto was about to continue speaking when Naruto casually placed Hinata into a seat before standing up. He nudged Sasuke.

"Oi, do you want to get stronger?"

"You have a new training method?" Sasuke's eyes lit up.

"Yeah, but it's painful as hell. You up for it?" Naruto asked, smirking mischievously.

Sasuke scoffed. "Hmph! I don't care about pain. As long as it helps me kill that man…" His voice grew dark.

"Ouer!"

Then, in the most unexpected move, Naruto suddenly stood up, cleared his throat, and shouted across the exam hall:

"I'M NOT TARGETING ANYONE SPECIFICALLY, BUT MY OLDER BROTHER SAID IT BEST—EVERYONE HERE IS TRASH!"

Then, as if to drive the point home, he dramatically pointed at Sasuke.

"AND THIS IS MY BROTHER!"

The room exploded.

The entire examination hall fell into chaos.

Rookie Nine: "…"

Sasuke: "What the actual fuck?!**"

A murmur ran through the crowd.

"That brat from before…" Kankurō muttered, narrowing his eyes.

"He gave me a desert rose once. I heard he's quite popular with women," Temari said, glancing at Naruto and the girls around him.

"Humph." Gaara simply crossed his arms, unimpressed.

"Idiot…" Tenten sighed, shaking her head.

"You haven't taught them enough, Lee," Neji commented.

Rock Lee clenched his fists. "Next time, I shall challenge Naruto to a true test of youth!"

Meanwhile, a few Genin from Otogakure (Sound Village) were already irritated beyond belief.

"Did this bastard just lump us in with the rest of the trash?"

"I say we teach him a lesson right now!"

One of the Oto-nin pulled out a kunai, while another cracked his knuckles menacingly.

Sakura, still in shock, quickly grabbed Naruto and yanked him down.

"Are you an IDIOT?!" she whispered harshly.

"Do you have any idea what you just did?! Everyone is looking at us like we killed their entire clan!"

Sure enough, over 100 Genin were now glaring daggers at them.

Sakura stiffened, turning to face the crowd with an awkward smile. "Hahaha, he's joking, everyone! You know, Naruto's an idiot! He says dumb things all the time! No need to take him seriously, hahaha…"

Naruto just grinned. "Don't worry, Sakura-chan. I know how to handle them."

Before she could stop him, three figures suddenly rushed toward them from the crowd.

Kankurō was about to summon Crow, but Gaara held up a hand, stopping him.

Meanwhile, two Sound Genin jumped forward.

The first one hurled two kunai directly at Naruto, while the second sprinted forward, his fist aiming for Naruto's head.

Naruto, who had been busy getting scolded by Sakura, barely glanced up. Something was off.

Wasn't their original target supposed to be Kabuto?

As the kunai sped toward him, Naruto leaned back, dodging effortlessly. His eyes flickered toward the incoming Oto-nin.

In a single instant, his three-tomoe Sharingan locked onto the attacker's eyes.

A wave of pure killing intent exploded from Naruto.

Oto-nin B froze mid-punch, his entire body trembling violently.

His pupils shrank in terror. For a brief moment, it felt as though he was staring at death itself.

His breath hitched, and he instantly jumped backward, sweating profusely.

Conqueror's Haki (Basic): A powerful mental assault that induces panic, dizziness, and fear in opponents who are far weaker than the user. (Acquired from Monthly Sign-In.)

Naruto smirked and mouthed a silent message to Oto-nin B, making sure only he could see:

"Be careful… I might just kill you~"
