Jiriya's Last Student (Naruto Fanfic)

CHAPTER THREE

A/n Masuragi covers her right eye like Kakashi (but with a bandage) when she goes on missions or anywhere because of her one black eye

Masuragi noticed how different the Konoha 12 and their senseis were acting. They looked gloomy and sad and we're denying Masuragi of extra training before the exams. It baffled the shy purple headed girl. Even her father snapped at her a few times today which, she wasn't going to lie, hurt like hell. It was almost as if he was reverting back to his old self when she was seven. Maruragi huffs softly as she leaned against a tree. Sasuke was supposed to be here hours ago and it gave the young girl a feeling she had never experienced.

Annoyance.

Masuragi leaned her head against the bark of the tree before she felt a presence of multiple people. Before she could even think, she weaves through hand signs faster than the eye could see, with the intent to harm, "Taiton: Mōfū Daireppa (Typhoon Style: Severe Wind Destruction)!" A massive tornado slowly formed. It destroyed the whole training field as it made its way towards Sasuke who narrowly dodged it with his Sharingan activated. Masuragi grits her teeth with a livid expression. The veins in her eyes stuck out as her three tomoe Tensi-Sharingan and Byakugan, "YOU INCONSIDERATE BASTARD!" Masuragi shouts angrily, weaving through some more hand signs before thinking, Fūton: Daitoppa

Sasuke dodged another attack, "THE CHŪNIN EXAMS MEAN SO MUCH TO ME AND YOU HAVE THE DECENCY TO SHOW UP LATE, KNOWING I MIGHT NOT MAKE IT ON TIME!" Masuragi shouts again, "WHAT THE FUCK TYPE SENSEI ARE YOU?! WHAT THE FUCK TYPE FATHER ARE YOU?!" She asks, making her senseis freeze, "What the every living FUCK... is wrong with all of you?!" Masuragi asks with a hard glare. Masuragi saw their uncertain faces. She placed her hands together, about to do another jutsu before she took a deep breath, "You know what, I don't care. Let's go, Sasuke-sensei." She says with distaste obvious in her tone.

Sasuke deactivated his Sharingan, "Hn." He says before walking behind Masuragi, Hinata following shortly after. Masuragi didn't say bye to any of her senseis, she just stormed pass the village gates. Masuragi grits her teeth as she takes off towards Kumo by herself, ignoring the calls from both her mother and father. She didn't know what was going on with the others, but she didn't like the fact they were taking it out on her. She adjusted the weights on her arm, as she dashed for the Land of Fire border.

Katsujima scoffs, "The damn tree huggers sent one gennin?" She asks softly, jumping through trees, slightly ahead of her family and teammate. Minoru Fujiwara, Katsujima's gay boy best friend and teammate, hums, "Just like Konoha to underestimate other villages." He says in an irritated voice. Gaara nods, "It's weird though. From my intel, Konoha has over seven gennin teams. Why are they only sending a single gennin?" He questions, grunting as he almost lost his footing. Rajin flashes a cocky grin, "Who cares, we'll beat that tree hugger down to the ground!" He exclaims. Katsujima side eyes her elder brother, "Idiot, if they sent one gennin, she or he can't be weak. For all we know, the person could be a prodigy or trained under a highly capable Jonin." She snaps. Rajin nods, "You're right. It's like they want the kid to die." He states. Naruto in disguise shakes his head, "Let's just get to Kumo and settle down for the exams. They start tomorrow." He mutters, taking off with the group of Suna nins following behind him.

In Kumo

Masuragi makes it to the gate, only to be stopped by a kunai to the throat, "Halt, state your business here." The guard sneers, glaring daggers at Masuragi's headband. Before she could speak, a voice behind her spoke up, "Chunnin Exams. Isn't it obvious, idiot?" Masuragi looks back only for her breath to be taken away by a very beautiful girl. The red head narrows her eyes at Masuragi, "So, you're the only Konoha gennin? You don't look like much." She says bluntly, her team and sensei's slowly approaching behind her. Masuragi felt a hand on her shoulder, "Believe me, Masuragi Hyuuga is more than capable of completing this solo." Sasuke says behind his daughter, staring at the masked man and familiar red head, "Gaara-sama." He greets making Masuragi look up, "You know him, To- Sasu-Sensei?" She quickly corrects herself. Gaara hums, "You could say we're acquainted..." He says, but even Masuragi could hear the distaste in his voice, "Gaara, Kazakage of the Sand." Gaara greets Masuragi.

Masuragi bows slightly, showing her respect, "Masuragi Hyuuga of the Leaf." She greets back respectfully. Gaara hums, "Who's your mother, young one?"

"That would be me." The man in the fox mask tenses up when he sees his ex crush, Hinata Hyuuga, standing there in all her glory. One of the few people that never treated him wrong in Konoha, "Nice to see you again, Gaara-kun." Hinata says. Gaara smiles softly, "Nice to see you too, Hyuuga-San." After the interaction at the gate, Masuragi couldn't get the red head kunoichi out of her head. All she knew is that she couldn't wait to spar with her in the chunnin exams.

She just knew the girl was hella strong.
